Chapter 396, self-inflicted humiliation!
Plum Garden.
The old man Lu Xingkong stood at the window of the study, watching the two snow doves in the garden chirping among the branches and competing for food. The snow dove with the red spot on its forehead didn't know where to find an earthworm, and the other snow dove with black spots on its forehead looked at it and pounced again and again to snatch the earthworm. You come and go, pecking at the eyes, and the two birds are inseparable.
Uncle Lu, the old housekeeper, pushed the door and walked in, lifted up the small bubbling copper stove on the silver beard charcoal fire, filled Lu Xingkong's teacup with boiling water, and said loudly: "The master is enjoying the snow again? It is also strange to say that this year's snow not only falls heavily, but also has not stopped for several days, and it is said that the pines and cypresses in Xishan have been crushed a lot. This is a snow disaster that has not been seen in a century. β
Lu Xingkong pointed to the two snow doves that were fighting and didn't care about the onlookers watching and pointing at all, and said loudly: "Look, does the Lu family look like the snow dove?"
Uncle Lu walked over, squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while, and asked out loud, "Master, which one are you talking about?"
"The red-capped dove spotted an earthworm and attracted the black-capped dove to scramble. The two sides fought fiercely, carving and pecking each other for nearly 100 rounds----- do you say, at this time, should the red-capped snow dove disarm and surrender the earthworm in its mouth, or fight to the end, no matter what, to defend its dignity and ownership of this earthworm?" Lu Xingkong asked in a deep voice.
"Master, isn't the answer right in front of you?" Uncle Lu pointed to the two fighting birds and said with a smile. "The dove knows how to fight to the end with its claws for a bite to eat. What's more, people?"
"yes. Snow doves are still like this, let alone people?" Lu Xingkong took his gaze, walked back to his seat, took a sip of tea, and said loudly: "Let them all go back." Let's just say that I don't see a guest today. β
"You sent them away like this? Then how can their hearts be put down? Li Kefeng is fighting with Cui Jian from the patrol camp and the Supervision Department, and the two sides are killing and wounding each other, and they are fighting each other. Now Wan Heyou of the city defense battalion and Luo Benyuan of Jingzhao Mansion Yi are also involved------ outside is a mess, if you don't give them a word, they will leave without knowing anything?"
"What you think in your heart, you have to have a charter. It's better to let them carry out the execution in an orderly manner, isn't it a bunch of rough people, if you don't let them fight, and don't let them go to peace, just let them sit there quietly and wait, isn't that asking for their own lives?"
Uncle Lu saw that the tea in Lu Xingkong's cup was empty again, and walked over again with a small copper stove, filled the cup with boiling water, and said with a grim face: "Besides, the young master of the shepherd is still in danger." Those people waiting outside don't know, aren't you in a hurry at all? This time it was the Water Stopping Sword Pavilion that stood up, the Water Stopping Sword Pavilion claimed to have three thousand disciples, and those disciples who didn't make it were negligible, but the swordsmanship of the Three Gentlemen and the Three Maniacs of the Water Stopping Water had meritβ------ I heard that Mu Yubai, the successor of the Water Stopping Sword, also went out in person. You left the young master there alone, and there was only the red-sleeved girl by your side, and it was up to two to say whether the two of them could carry it back safely. β
Lu Xingkong was holding the steaming teacup, and he didn't know what he remembered, his expression was in a trance, and he looked like he was worried.
"Master, it's time to make a decision. Lu Lao reminded again.
"Have you thought about it, who is the person who can make the Supervision Division and Mu Yubai of the Water Stopping Sword Pavilion stand up and fight with my Lu family?"
Lu Lao thought for a while, pointed to the top of his head, and said, "Is that the one?"
"If his goal is just to kill the shepherd, just let the Water Stopping Sword Pavilion secretly do it, or let the worshippers in the palace do it directly. Quietly, with the cultivation of the shepherd at this time, it is naturally difficult to resist. Lu Xingkong's eyes were cold, like the snow dove fighting for food outside, and said angrily: "They just committed murder on the street, making the scene so lively and grand------ what do you want?"
"Figure my Lu family?" Uncle Lu said softly. "In this case, what's the point of just killing a shepherd master? At least, those people outside don't know the relationship between the shepherd master and my Lu family for the time being------
"Show the muscles. Lu Xingkong sighed softly and said: "The Water Stopping Sword Pavilion stood up and killed a house slave, and that groom was also packaged as a prisoner of the imperial court by the Supervision Division, what choice did the Lu family make? If the Lu family fought back, it would be a direct tear with the Water Stopping Sword Pavilion, the Supervision Division, and the Xifeng Chu Clan behind the Supervision Division. Is the Lu family fully prepared?"
"What does the master mean is that ----- they intend to force the Lu family and the Chu family to fight against each other with real swords and real #guns------?
Those two words, Uncle Lu still couldn't say them after all. Because any person or force is 'related' with those two words, I am afraid that it will be difficult to die well.
That's exactly what it means. β
"But ------ young master shepherd can't help it. β
Lu Xingkong's tiger eyes flashed with a light flash, and he hissed: "Eye of the starry sky, is it true that under this starry sky, there is really nothing to hide from that old dog?"
"Old man------"
Lu Xingkong waved his hand and said, "Let Shattered Star go and bring the young master back." In addition, I took my invitation card to the old house of the Song family outside the city, and said that I was going to visit the prime minister. β
The Zephyr Empire has a left phase and a right phase. But for a hundred years, only Song was alone who could be called the 'Minister of State'.
"Master------" Uncle Lu was shocked. For many years, the two families have not moved around at all. Now the old man asked him to send a card to the old man of the Song family, this is simply a humiliation ------ himself.
"Go ahead. Lu Xingkong waved his hand and said resolutely.
Uncle Lu glanced at Lu Xingkong deeply, then sighed softly, turned around and walked outside. The original stiff body looked a little lower.

The heart is like water, and the sword is like flowing water.
This is the "Water Stopping Sword Method".
"The Sword Technique of Stopping Water" can shock the west wind and resound in China, which naturally has its merits.
Shoot the word!
With the sword as a stick, the sword qi is cold and the stick is bold, and the sword and stick are one, and the majestic power is one.
Wound the enemy with strength, kill with anger.
A sword slashed, as if there were countless sword sticks coming all over the world, and countless blue flames burned on the countless sword sticks, enveloping Li Muyang's position within a radius of dozens of zhang.
The wind was blue, the snow was blue, and Li Muyang, who was wrapped in blue flames, also turned blue.
Li Muyang didn't feel the scorching, he couldn't feel the heat wave.
He didn't even feel anything unusual, he was able to breathe freely, he had a normal heartbeat, it was like everything around him was a delicacy, a phantom.
However, the more this is the case, the more worried Li Muyang becomes.
"The Sword Method of Stopping Water" is famous, and people in the west wind have heard of it. Mu Gubei, who founded the Water-stopping Sword Pavilion, challenged the world's heroes and was invincible, and was known as the first swordsman in China by the people of the time. The current owner of the Water-stopping Sword Pavilion, Mu Yubai, is a descendant of the Sword God, and his swordsmanship is also extraordinary.
Li Muyang didn't wait for his sword to become successful, and he had already clenched his fists and wanted to fight back.
The breaking fist of "Body Breaking Technique" is a fierce and rigid fist, and the beating technique of "Water Stopping Sword Technique" is also majestic.
Li Muyang is ready to fight hard and strong against strong.
It was the first reaction in his mind.
However, when he reached out and clenched his fists, he found that his hands seemed to be tied. An invisible rope tied him to the ground, making his body like a statue of wood. You can't lift your legs, you can't send your fists. Moreover, the strength in the body is disordered, and the gas in the dantian is also scattered everywhere and difficult to gather.
The hundred-mile long river soaring in mid-air naturally saw the subtle changes on Li Muyang's face, and sneered in his heart.
Rice grains also dare to compete with Haoyue for glory?
This is the sword momentum, and it is the power of a sword in a hundred miles of long river.
The sword qi has become a momentum, and the momentum is overwhelming.
Li Muyang, who was trapped by his momentum, could only be pressed by him. A sword decapitation level, a sword into a mash of meat is the proper meaning.
Tremble in the balance!
Lives are at stake!
Li Muyang's body was like a humanoid boulder, standing there motionless, allowing countless giant swords to slash towards his head and body.
"Idiot, hide------"
Redsleeves shouted.
Because the hundred miles of Changhe locked the sword intent of his whole body on Li Muyang's body, the red sleeves who were also in the sword momentum were not affected by this sword momentum.
She stretched out her hand to push Li Muyang, but Li Muyang's body did not move.
The red sleeves were in a hurry, the body rotated one hundred and eighty degrees, and the shabby gray skirt on the body also flew in the wind.
She was in the midst of the blue flames, and then her body jumped high, turned her sword into her palm, and took the initiative to attack the hundred-mile long river.
Using the sword qi transformed by the palm of the flesh to resist the water-stopping sword that has formed a sword momentum, such a charge is actually a dead end.
However, this was the only counterattack she could make at this time.
When the hundred miles of Changhe split it into pulp with a sword, she could also fight for Li Muyang, who was locked by the sword, for that glimmer of opportunity.
Only in such a short moment, this can live up to the Lu family's life-saving and raising kindness.
Redsleeves' body leaped into the air, and above her head were countless large swords pressed by her.
The sword qi split out of the palm of his hand was so fragile and powerless in front of the giant sword, but it was brave and resolute.
"Run. Red Sleeves turned around and shouted at Li Muyang.
At the same time, her speed increased and she launched a suicidal attack towards the hundred miles long river.
"Don't ------," Li Muyang hissed. He moved his hands and feet desperately, his body struggled desperately, but the invisible energy locked him completely, making his body feel like he was under a boulder in an ice cave.
That's the power of water.
Water is formless and has all forms, and water has nothing and traps all things.
"Don't. Li Muyang's eyes were red, and then his pupils were suddenly filled with red blood.
In the sea of hearts, a black spar slowly floated up, exuding a deep luster.
Li Muyang raised his head to the sky and roared, and punched out.
