I gently wiped the still warm and scarlet blood from my sword, and looked coldly at the person in front of me, and a trace of pleasure welled up in my heart.
"Finally, it's over. I lifted his head and placed it in the box I had prepared.
As I was about to leave, a sneer rang in my ears, and I heard it softly and then fell silent.
"Who!" where the hell did that sound come from? But there was no sound except for the occasional chirping of a few yellow finches passing through the sky.
I think maybe I've killed too many people lately.
There are too many people to kill, and there will always be some strange things happening around you. These were my master's last words when he was dying.

The rain in Suzhou is always delicate, like a fresh breeze blowing on your cheeks when you are asleep. But it's not peaceful here, and many people bully the market and do whatever they want. It's like it was so many years ago. But what does this have to do with me? I'm just a killer who takes people's money and helps people eliminate disasters. The more at this time, the more business will be, and today a certain gang leader will pay 500 taels to kill the gang leader who is against him. Someone will take his life tomorrow.
Whoever has more money, I will listen to whomever he wants. Although I don't like money,

Walking down a path, I entered a hut all the more familiar, where my secret was and the only place where I could put down my sword and pick up my meal.
"I'm back. I gently opened the curtain and walked over to her.
She squeezed out a smile, "I already know, though I can't see it." But I can tell by foot that you're back. ”
Her eyes were dull and obviously no longer visible, and I sought many famous doctors, but I couldn't cure her eyes, but I didn't want to give up, because she was the only person I ever trusted in the world.
"Keeping you waiting. I said to her.
"Time is a no-brainer for me. ”
"Someday there will be. I said.
She looked at me, "You know, if I see it, I want it to be you." ”
My heart hurts and I feel heavy. for I was the one who blinded her.

Three years ago, when I first entered the rivers and lakes, I worshipped under the 'Banshan Immortal', who was known as the world's number one killer at that time. He has many disciples, but I am the only one who has mastered the essentials. Under his guidance, I killed the invincible Qingtian Village Master, and killed the previous Martial Arts Alliance Master .......
In short, there is no shortage of celebrities who have died under my sword. Later, I met her, she was almost a bandit, and I rescued her. She said that she wanted to make a promise, and I smiled contemptuously, how could I have a family as a killer?
I walked away, and suddenly she threw me to the ground, and when I looked again, her eyes were already bloodshot, and with a wave of my sword, the neck of the undead bandit gushed like a spring, and then fell to the ground.
I took her to the hospital, but I didn't know how to say anything, and she reassured me that it was okay and that I had a father who was willing to spend money for me. Later, I learned that her father was Jiang Yu, the head of the world-famous Jiangnan Dart Bureau, and it was said that just a casual shot could make the whole river and lake tremble.
That day, I didn't know how to go back, but Master seemed to see that something was on my mind, so he brought me two barrels of wine to drink. He said that there is a new task, and you will be free after this last time.
Of course, this mission will not be simple, kill Jiang Yu.
For some reason, there was a tremor in my heart.
Jiang Yu was killed by me, and I was liberated as Master said, because he died. Before he died, he grabbed the blade of my sword and said that last sentence, there are too many people to kill, and there are always some strange things happening around you. After saying that, I closed my eyes, and from then on, I had no master, and she had no father.
Although Jiang Yu died, he was quite powerful in the rivers and lakes, and every few days someone would always besiege me, and several times I almost lost my life thanks to her assistance to me, it seems that she did not know that I killed her father. She has always regarded me as a heroic hero. Treat the people who have been coming to me to seek revenge as people who come to the door to provoke. Actually, I am also worthy of her, after all, when the master wanted to kill her, I saved her and killed my master.
I went into a village with her in hiding, and the search for medicine had almost cost me all these years of savings, so I had no choice but to pick up the sword again and kill people.

"You'll be fine. Looking at her face, he said softly.
"Thank you. ”
I got up and left, deliberately not knowing that she wanted to continue the conversation, "I'll go prepare the meal, and rest when I'm done." It's not early. ”
I can't get too close to her, because I'm afraid that one day she will smell the blood on my body, and although I go to the lake to wash myself after every killing, the smell of blood on the sword seems to have become one with the sword, and I can't wash it off.
After eating, she obediently went to bed to rest, I packed up the dishes and chopsticks and left her room, suddenly, there was another sneer in my ears, this time I believed that I heard correctly, the voice really sounded in my ears.
I drew my sword with one hand and swung it, believing that there was no living creature within three feet of me, and that the one who made the sound should have vanished.
At this moment, she suddenly let out a scream, and I hurriedly rushed in, the window was open, and the person was gone, leaving only a line of familiar handwriting on the cupboard: I want to save people, Shili Pavilion.
Shili Pavilion, where I used to be apprenticed, was the starting point of my first entry into the rivers and lakes. The only thing that hasn't changed here is desolation. I said, I'm here, I can release them.
There was a face in front of me, a face that should have turned to dry bones a long time ago, my master. Mid-levels immortals.
"You're still alive?"
"Since my name is an immortal, then I should not die. He laughed twice and added, "As I said, there are many murders, and there are always some strange things that will happen." Don't you think it's strange what is happening now?"

It is strange that I scratched him when he was holding the blade of the sword, but now his hand is not scarred at all, could it be that he used some kind of panacea? No, I tested his pulse and was sure that he was dead.
"You're not mid-levels, who are you?"
'Mid-Levels' was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "I'm mid-levels, not mid-levels." ”
He ripped off the human skin mask in the middle of the mountain, and it was another face that should have died a long time ago, it was Jiang Yu.
"I didn't expect it, even if I am in the middle of the mountain, I am Jiang Yu, and the half of the mountain that you killed is just a stand-in. He touched his chest and continued: "In order to dominate the rivers and lakes, I incarnated as a 'mid-mountain' and used you to eradicate those who could threaten me one by one. But I don't want my girl to be saved by you, and fall in love with you, at this time, the six doors have discovered me, I want to stay out of the matter, pretend to be dead, and use you to kill the two identities, so that I can be completely 'invisible'. But after thinking about it, I felt a little uncomfortable after all. ”
"Because of me?"
"It's worthy of the apprentice I taught, but it's a pity that your life is left here today. Before the words fell, he had already made a sword, a sword I had never heard of or seen. That's what he's really capable of.
I tried my best, but I couldn't parry it at all, and the tiger's mouth was shocked to the point of blood, and the true qi in my chest surged. I couldn't catch his next sword anyway, but it didn't stab, for he already had a bloody blade on his chest.
He looked back at the person who attacked him in a daze, raised the sword in his hand, paused, and finally did not stab out. He closed his eyes and heard the last words of the person in front of him, "Father, the half-mountain immortal was killed by me, you can look at it." ”
She threw herself into my arms, "He took me and locked me in the room, but there was no one to guard me, I found a sword from the wall and followed the sound to get here. Listening to your conversation, I know that he is the Immortal of the Mid-Mountains, the culprit who killed my father. And I stabbed him. ”
I looked at the corpse on the ground, and he never imagined that it was his daughter who killed him in the end. I wanted to go up and hug her and comfort her, but she avoided her, her eyes shining brightly, "From now on, you and I are the masters of this river and lake." ”
I froze, looking at her like a stranger.
And she smiled like a flower.
