Blood Lotus Tribulation

"The smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River is a good scenery, I am the king to the king, the fishing boat sings the sunset at night, and waits for the end of the red dust beauty." The sound of the piano was constantly and regularly trembling, and every beat of the strings seemed to drive the surrounding grass, swaying and dancing with the wind, and the wind beat like a wave of wind on my body, but I was unaware, as if forgotten, gradually ethereal.

It's a great place to be.

In fact, she shouldn't have been hidden, because her sweetheart is the only one who is unique. "Pingju Qi water, the east wilderness is mountainless. Outside the sun-hidden mulberry tree, between the wells of the river and the lu. ”

Dressed in a plain robe, wearing a hosta hat, and an eight-fold fan swaying with the sound in my hand, each time permeated with infinite reverie, I slowly echoed the sound of the piano and chanted. The veil of the person in front of her just covered the flawless face, and the air was only filled with a shallow fragrance of pear blossoms, she was very mysterious, and never let me see her face, whenever I passed by Qingyi Pavilion, I could only watch a white figure from a distance gently caress her beloved qin. I smiled at her from a distance, and although I couldn't see her face, I could tell from the sound of the piano that her heart was extremely calm, and from the subtle rise of the corners of her mouth, I could tell that she had returned me with the most appropriate respect.

"Childe is so leisurely?" Soft words broke the momentary silence. "Oh?" I smiled at the pavilion. "It is said that the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is good, and Xiaosheng came to take a look, presumably Miss should have no opinion." I heard the piano sound tremble, "Really? Her voice was a little disgusted, I shook my head helplessly, just like nothing along the Yanyu Building, free and easy, reciting the famous poems from ancient times to the present, "Jiangnan is good, the scenery is old Zeng'an, the sunrise river flowers are red, and the river is as green as blue in spring, why not remember Jiangnan?" Why not..."

Carefree, swimming all over the mountains and rivers, enjoying the good rivers and mountains, it must be everyone's heart. Recently, I have become attached to this riverside, and I am full of curiosity about this elegant woman who caresses the qin.

It's just that the rivers and lakes are deep and sinister, and there are too many enemies, maybe they will capsize in the gutter inadvertently, even if they live such a comfortable life, I can only classify it as the calm before the storm, and the vigilance at any time and at any time, in this troubled Central Plains, it is necessary.

My name is Mo Li, continuing the status of the master, the current Easy Sword Saint, I like to live in seclusion on weekdays, so at first glance, I look like an ordinary scholar, and few people can guess my true identity. A lot of the time I'm in the world. However, next to the people I have killed, a red lotus often blooms, and the red light is dazzling and scattered, and the lotus is filled with the blood of the deceased, and it is red, called the "Blood Lotus Sword Saint". This is the most shocking name after the Red Lotus Killer who terrified the whole river and lake back then, and it has been a long time, and it has been a long time since I have seen the former lotus flowers blooming in the middle of the lake. I looked at the sparkling lake of Qianyu and couldn't help but feel emotional. Because I haven't forgotten to this day, I was really just a talented scholar at that time, plus an ordinary chivalrous swordsman in the rivers and lakes.

There was no one around, the silence was gloomy, a bright moon rose from the horizon, and I was drinking alone under the pavilion before I knew it, and I fell into memories again.

The woman's wrist is light, and the jade onion fingers gently pass on the strings, with the warm wind blowing from time to time, delicate and refined. That was the first time I met her at the Qingyi Pavilion. After a brief conversation, I seemed so calm that her vigilance seemed to flicker, and we went from a single exchange to the vagaries of the world, and I could deduce that the seemingly mysterious woman in front of me must have escaped secretly, often plucking the lyre. "Just call the little girl Cher." She said to me, I didn't expect that the voice was like a natural sound, full of infinite reverie, we met under the pavilion, and then acquainted, her veil blocked the face looming, I seemed to be able to catch the pink jade face in one fell swoop, the body was light, there was a strange attraction, but I just shook my head, dispelled distracting thoughts, and sat flat.

"Why is Childe worried?" I was tired of walking, sat down and sighed at her, she would always smile at this time, Bai Yu skillfully left and right on the stone table neatly arranged cups, for me to make a glass of pear blossom wine, for me to relieve my worries. Her craftsmanship is extremely exquisite, the fragrance of flower wine is permeated, the entrance is sweet, and the essence of it spreads in the cup, "The world is full of life, soldiers are chaotic, killing is continuous, and it is a last resort, Xiaosheng has no choice but to come here to avoid trouble, his parents are dead, and he is just a weak scholar." I smiled wryly and let out a long sigh.

"That son, please listen to a little girl's song." I was happy when she smiled, and even through the veil, I could feel a little tenderness contained in it.

"The water flows for a long time, love and hatred, the king's worries, the rest of the years, I am difficult to seek, and the flowers are worried"

I listened to her piano and laughed at myself.

The master said that his greatest wish in this life is that I can inherit his career and become famous, but at that time I didn't seem to be interested in the term "swordsman", so I didn't concentrate on practicing. Every night, the window burns with red light, and secretly reads thousands of books, no matter how hot or cold, without interruption. It was only then that my attention was focused, and I have only cultivated it to this day. The master pretended to be asleep next to him, in fact, I knew it, and all this could not escape his eyes. "Li'er, you have to do everything with your heart, the heart, is the spirit of all things, without it, everything will just come to naught, your parents are crazy and both died in their own hands, remember, it is useless to have a spirit empty, the key is to concentrate..."He said this to me, I nodded as if I understood or not.

Until that night, an uninvited guest broke into the house, and in the middle of the early autumn night, the cold wind blew outside the door, blowing away the leaves that were almost withering. I suddenly thought of something, there were only me and the master next to the bed, and the master hid me in the secret passage in the backyard without saying a word, the wind became more and more obvious, and I refused to leave, "You dare!" His fingers merged together and sealed my acupoint, "Li'er, the one who comes should be the most tricky Red Lotus killer, you must not go out of the secret path before tomorrow, the statute of limitations for the teacher's acupoint can only be maintained until the next day, this is the Ink Soul Sword, it will belong to you in the future, you don't have enough strength, don't show it to the world, this will represent your identity." Remember, if the teacher doesn't solve the acupoints for you in advance, you should run away quickly, and you won't be able to come back..."The voice fluttered in his ears, "Master! I watched the stone door in front of me slowly close, tears flowed, and then I heard a brief vague conversation, "I didn't expect that the first killer would be able to perform a miracle at a young age, which really made the old man feel ashamed, and it was a pity for the rest of his life." The master sighed lightly, "Don't talk nonsense, the master ordered me to clean the second gate of the rivers and lakes, and the old man obediently died!" "Oh?" The master smiled, "Then your master is still alive today?" The other party was silent, "When the family teacher was dying, he didn't forget to pull the second swordsman to accompany him to the funeral, but it was too late..." "It seems that she still refuses to let go... That's only one game! Then there was the sound of a clash of swords, and the two seemed to be evenly matched, and the sound of the fight continued, and after a while, I heard the sound of metal breaking, like a knife, which pierced deep into my heart, and I burst into tears. After all, not every sword is as hard as an ink soul... Close your eyes in pain. I don't know how long it has been, when I desperately moved open the stone gate and saw a red lotus in the courtyard, my eyes were about to split, and the master's head rolled to the ground, I stared blankly at the scene in front of me, and after a long time, I resolutely picked up the body and buried it silently. Since then, he has practiced swords frantically according to the master's teachings, and has become a generation of sword addicts, traveling all over the world, and stepping into the north and south of the country.

"From the tone of the childe, the little woman can hear how much she has experienced, but who in the world is not like this?" She still calmly replied that pulled me from memory to reality, the fragrance of pear blossoms refused to fade away, I simply took a dead wood under the flower and practiced the sword, to the realm of human and sword unity, even if there is only one grass, it can cut the effect of sword qi. After waving it in a chic manner, he asked if there was a second cup, and the latter smiled silently, "A branch can be swayed freely, I didn't expect that the son was both civil and military, and the little woman admired it." She was still playing the lyre, and we shared our experiences with each other. "We all laughed softly after saying this, how I wanted to carry that moment on for eternity." Don't you want to avenge your master? I shook my head when Cher asked me one day, "Why not?" But I even only know that it was the number one killer who killed him, but I don't even know what she looks like, how can I find it? She nodded silently and continued to play, and I didn't say a word, quietly looking at the slender figure in front of me, as if time had long stood still.

After that, whenever I passed by, I couldn't help but come forward to talk to her, as if agreed, I would see her every time, but a few times she was absent, and when she arrived, the night was dark, she said that something was delayed, and she apologized for not being able to make flower wine, I waved my hand and asked her to make me a cup of tea.

It went on like this for three years, and in the past three years, I looked at her face many times, but I always couldn't see through it vaguely, "Childe, I may have to leave tomorrow and never pass through this place again." "Why?" I asked. "My father has found my whereabouts and is ready to take me back to marry." "Have you ever met?" I asked eagerly, and she shook her head, "I heard that the woman who was married to him never appeared, as if she had disappeared. "Then you're not going to run away, aren't you?" I frowned, "It's useless." She smiled wryly, "Because the people have come... Don't kill innocents. She leaned over and whispered in my ear, "There's no need. I said.

She was forcibly taken away, of course she wanted to keep her, but unfortunately I couldn't, because she said that the other party's power was too big, big enough for me to be wiped out. "She really thought I was just a scholar." I thought to myself.

At night, a pot of drunken wine, raising the sky and howling, treating yourself unfairly. I'm in despair. "There is a vast sea of people, how can I reach the top to find you?" Returned to Qingyi Pavilion alone and practiced swords alone.

Early in the morning, carrier pigeons flew towards me, and I opened the strip of cloth, and there were only a few clear words in blood: Be sure to go to Xia at noon tomorrow, plus a military map of Xia country. "What's going on?" But I was really helpless, the liquor was down, this may be the last time to practice the sword under the flowers, the sword light was shining, leaving a trail of light, I couldn't bear to destroy the surrounding scenery, and found a remote place to swing, in the last moment, I practiced so superbly.

The cold wind of the winter night penetrated people's hearts, and as my feelings became cold and anxious because of such helplessness, I silently followed the map to the most remote position where the soldiers were standing, but for some reason, I was still found when I was so secret enough to lurk in the night, but fortunately there was only one person, "Who are you?" What are you coming for? "Poof!" The sword qi was shocked, and the soldiers defending the city were stunned by me, and quietly sneaked into the palace, and in the magnificent Mingyang City Tower in Goryeo, it was the marriage that I didn't want to see the most.

Maybe it was discovered, I felt a little commotion in the crowd, and sure enough, the soldier who reported the news didn't have time to say the word "sneak attack", and was killed by my swordsmanship, I rushed forward, swept everyone with cold eyes, and recognized her at once, at this time she had not yet put on a red hijab, without the cover of the veil, and the face that could be broken by the bomb revealed a surprised expression, but I couldn't care so much at this time. "Ink Soul Sword? You're the Sword Master? The man sitting on the throne asked as if expected, but there were only two people in the palace, "So what?" Without saying a word, I slashed away with a sword, but he just waved his hand, and a group of black-clothed people poured into the door and surrounded me, "Run!" Cher shouted unwillingly, and I could only smile and salute, "It's too late." I resolutely went, the Ink Soul Sword seemed to feel the taste of bloodthirsty, the sound of the sword continued, I stepped forward to cut off the heads of several people, and prepared to behead their leaders in one fell swoop, snatching Xue'er who shook her head desperately, ignoring the sentence "You will pay the price of blood for this!" "But I miscalculated, the other party's skills are only a little weaker than me, not to mention that the guards who came around me are not weak in martial arts, "Huh! The dark arrow struck, and I struggled to flash it, but I still scratched the scars, "Poisonous!" My face finally changed, and I picked her up and ran away, but unfortunately it backfired, and after taking two steps, I couldn't hold on, "You go first, and I'll come later." Her eyes were red, and she kept sobbing, "It's all my fault, that's why you hurt you like this..." Now is not the time to talk about this, run, they're catching up! Hearing the sound of chasing behind me, I could only send her away with qigong, lead everyone away alone, and start the boundless road.

Pass five levels, kill six generals, and hold a frost sword to thousands of enemy troops;

Breaking mountains and rivers, shocking six ways, just want to climb to the top to find a beautiful woman.

The blood flashed, still not suffering, in a thought, can also be the enemy of thousands of troops, I felt the true meaning of the sword intent in the blood rain, the ink soul sword roared, one person and one sword, flying over the city. I increased my speed to an alarming level, covered in blood, with countless scars on my back, completely ignoring it, the wounds behind me became more and more serious, shook off the pursuers, and returned to the pavilion. "Finally got rid of it." Breathe a sigh of relief. I saw her quietly hiding in the pavilion, her eyes wandering.

"That's where you met three years ago, right?" Or she sighed first.

I looked at the pear blossoms and nodded, it was dawn, and I felt a brief calm, but I didn't notice the Chili blade striking behind me

The blade of the knife slashed across the chest, and a heart-piercing pain was uncomfortable.

Her eyes grew cold, ignoring my incomprehensible expression. "It's a pity that the little girl has never been tempted by the child, the son has killed many people in my Xia Kingdom, and he is the apprentice of the old ghost, I didn't pay attention to it back then, and now I have sent it to the door, and I have become the person I must kill."

"Why is this happening?" I still miscalculated, I didn't expect her to really be a killer.

"Hehe, I didn't expect it, just now your opponent is one of the top ten swordsmen in the rivers and lakes, it seems that the old ghost has cultivated well, and with your current strength, you can finally shake me a little."

"You haven't really answered me yet."

"Hmph, my Xia Mangshi and your Mo family's enmity is not shared, your master killed my father, I have followed my family teacher to learn assassination skills since I was a child, practiced hard, experienced all kinds of suffering, endless killing, and now I am famous, and later I was selected by Emperor Xia to become the princess of a country, and now it is time to ask for interest..." I remembered what my master once said to me, "Don't be fooled by the surface of things, what you see is not what you experience..."

When I saw the naked short knife, I should understand why the number one killer in the rivers and lakes was hidden in the world, I didn't expect to be so young, so it was, the gentle and elegant on the surface was all to lure me into the trap, and I had been tricked by her! I finally understood why no one had come to hunt me down just now, and I finally understood why there was a cruel sneer in the eyes of those masters of the rivers and lakes when they were killed. Everything was relieved, despair reached the extreme, and my face returned to coldness.

"No wonder you are." I said to him. "I didn't expect Qingyi Pavilion's reunion to be a life-and-death duel, ridiculous, haha, hahaha..."

I stopped my blood and stepped forward slowly, and the ink soul seemed to feel the bloody stimulation again, and the trembling sound was endless.

The swords collided, bursting out of countless sparks, the light weaving was staggered, hundreds of rounds had passed in a blink of an eye, my hand was still holding the ink soul, there was already a wisp of blood on the sword from my shoulder to the tip of the sword, and the throat was sweet and spit blood, after all, she had just been assassinated, and she was highly poisoned, she tactfully shook Chili, flipped and thought that it would end me like this, I could only grit my teeth for the time being, concentrate my strength, and make a last fight!

"Poof!" I spurted out countless blood, looked at the blood hole in my shoulder, and cried out in pain: "Why! Why don't you pierce my heart!"

The pain was numb, and her chest had already been pierced deep by the Mo Li Sword, and it was irretrievable.

I reached forward and dragged the petite figure that was about to fall, "Actually, I, ahem, have never hated you, I don't know when, I actually moved on you... Woman's heart, how do I... Can really put you... It's over, master... Is... I didn't expect itβ€”" She closed her tired eyes and slowly collapsed into my arms.

The sky was dark in an instant, and the rain hit, washing away our bloodstains, "I know you were forced, I know you are helpless, you give me up, why do you want this!" Answer me" The red lotuses fell from my side, gradually unfolding, exuding a bloodthirsty aura, at this time I didn't care about any elegance, my voice screamed bitterly, and I kept trying to wake up the eyes that were closed quietly. "Is this fate?" I smiled wryly.

"That year, it was pouring rain, and I looked away from me."

The inexplicable heartache traveled all over the body, each fluctuation would drive a drop of blood and tears down the cheeks, thunder bursts, lightning cut a pale mark in the air, like a carving knife, cutting and shattering people's hearts without stopping... Could it really be that this is going to happen? I looked into the distant sky, and I didn't say a word for a long time, and all I heard was the coldness of the rain and the monstrous remorse...

I hugged her body, picked up Chili, picked the seeds of the red lotus, and disappeared into the long deep forest

It's another year of spring benefits, and then go back to Qingyi Pavilion, practice swords alone, drink alone, before that, I don't know how many red lotus flowers are stained with the blood of the people killed, gradually, I became a blood lotus killer, but I am still hidden in the world, as if depressed in the world, but every time I come forward, there will be martial arts masters who die one by one, very concisely pierced through the heart by the Red Soul Sword, and then spurt out countless blood, blood loss and death, of course, those people are the remaining lackeys of the No. 1 killer of the year, after countless persecutions, I just began to understand the story: Xia Mang, the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, controlled the masters of the rivers and lakes one by one in order to unify the world, and Xue'er's master was also the prime minister's unreasonable request to be rejected by the master repeatedly, in order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, he decided to kill the Xiaoyao Sword Saint, but he gradually passed away without taking action, the Red Soul Sword is the blade sword that recasts the ink soul and Chili, and suddenly found that the pear blossoms are blooming, one by one floating into the wine they have just brewed, I, chanting the poem, "It's still not as strong as you brew..." Drink them all. A few flowers fell, driving the surrounding empty scene, my vision began to blur again, and the quiet time would rather freeze.

Five years later, there was a scream of the palace maid in the palace, and the head of the monarch of Xia Kingdom rolled to the ground, and countless blood-soaked lotus flowers bloomed beside him, I heard that he was killed by the Xiaoyao Sword Saint, because the Red Soul Sword was next to the head at the moment, of course, the Xiaoyao Sword Saint had withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, and was safe in the forest hut to retire for life....

Ten years passed, the Xia Kingdom collapsed, the Shang State marched into the imperial capital, established the Tai'an Dynasty, the whole world was happy, there was no more chaos in the world, the country was peaceful and peaceful, and the whole city was prosperous and comfortable.

Then the emigrants who arrived passed by Qingyi Pavilion, and they would only see countless green grass and red flowers growing on the ground, and the earthy smell in the air. Looking at Qianyu Lake again, in this ordinary scenery, the lotus flowers in the center of the lake are in full bloom, with a light fragrance overflowing, refreshing people's hearts.
