54. Heluo thing

A night of chaotic fighting.

When the morning sun rises, the entire bank of the Yangtze River is silent, and there is no trace of the tense situation of the confrontation between the north and the south during this time.

It was as if a lot of things had changed overnight.

Indeed it is.

Crossing the Huainan of the Central Plains, the Northern Army, which tried to cross the river, was defeated.

The retreat in the second half of the night had already caused the northern army to retreat for dozens of miles, and the "pocket array" arranged by Zhao Biao, the king of Huainan, in Badu, Chuzhou, and Hanshan was also unfolded at this moment.

The entire Southern Korean army in Huainan was exhausted, and cooperated with the pursuit of the Hundred Battles Army to completely defeat these scattered Northern troops in one go.

According to the current situation, the front of the two countries has shown signs of being pushed back to the Central Plains, and the danger of the Yangtze River has been taken over, and the entire hinterland of the south can usher in a period of calm and calm.

At the level of rivers and lakes, this battle is also a super victory.

In a death match last night, the decent martial arts people led by Ren Hao completely broke the backbone of the Demon Sect.

Ten thousand poisons, death.

Rejoice, die.

Elder Chiyun, who took over Qu Xie as the master of the Five Elements Gate, died.

The Holy Fire Sect was in charge of Yang Tao, and personally slaughtered hundreds of Demon Sect elites, announcing with practical actions that the Holy Fire Sect had separated from the Demon Sect.

The last is the heaviest.

The Demon Cult advocates Mo Evil, lose!

He lost to Hao, the director of the Wulin League, and is no longer the number one in the world.

In front of the people in the rivers and lakes, he personally disbanded the Demon Sect, and from now on, there will be no more Demon Sect in this Jianghu organization.

The Seven Sect Masters of the Demon Sect died three in one night, including two Heavenly Rankings.

There are also injuries in decency.

The director of the Martial Arts League, Hao, fought against the Demon Sect and advocated Mo Xie and died of exhaustion.

Zen Master Yuanwu was hit by a happy blow of ice, and relied on the dragon Buddha staff to support him.

But he was also seriously injured by cold poison.

Ziwei Taoist Huang Wumiao assassinated Yang Tao, but because the other party used the shameless off-the-plate scoundrel trick of the Millennium Holy Flame, he was defeated, and the injury he suffered in Suzhou before had not healed, and this time he was injured on top of injury.

The neutral Momen Juzi Wujiu was dismantled by Yang Tao for most of his body, and the forbidden technique could not save the end of failure.

And since Wuyang Zhenren, Lin Yundong is in charge, the masters of the rivers and lakes who participated in this battle have suffered heavy casualties, and even Feng Yafu, the ghost doctor of the King of Medicine, and the old man of ten thousand poisons fought to the death.

At this time, he was already poisonous, his limbs were completely ruined, and he couldn't even speak.

Looking at it this way, although this victory defeated the Demon Sect, the righteous path also paid a terrible price.

This made the taste of victory dispelled a little.

Especially the mournful music that sounded from the Jianghu camp, coupled with the white paper money flying in the sky, made the taste of this victory a little dimmed.

"The coffin of the alliance leader should be sent back to Wulong Villa, and after seven days of rest, it will be sent back to the ancestral house in Nantong for burial."

In the camp, Qin Xuming, the steward of Wulong Villa, who was wearing linen and filial piety, was saying goodbye to Shen Qiu and his party.

He was stabbed in the left eye by the Five Elements Assassin during the chaos last night, which would wear a black blindfold, and opposite him, Shen Qiu had a white filial piety belt tied around his arm.

As Ren Hao's son and nephew, he should have escorted the coffin back to Wulong Villa together.

But this will, Shen Qiu also has some things to deal with.

"I've got something to take care of."

Shen Qiu held Qin Xuming's arm, and he said:

"You wait first, tomorrow at the latest, I will go to the villa to worship Uncle Ren."

"It's not just worship."

Qin Xuming's pale face tried to show a smile, and he said to Shen Qiu:

"The alliance leader summoned me yesterday evening and left a will, Shen Daxia, you will be the next master of Wulong Villa. The villa is the private property of the alliance leader, and he said, this is a congratulatory gift for you and Miss Yaoqin.

I'm here to say goodbye, but also to ask, Shen Daxia, the personnel in the villa, are they dismissed or stayed? ”

"Brother Qin, you..."

Shen Qiu's mood was complicated and heavy, Ren Hao said that day that he wanted to make up a congratulatory gift, Shen Qiu thought he was just joking.

But unexpectedly, Ren Hao really prepared a congratulatory gift in the name of the will.

He looked at Qin Xuming in front of him, and was a little at a loss for a while, not knowing whether to accept it or not, and the latter also saw Shen Qiu's doubts, so he bowed to Shen Qiu.

He said:

"The leader of the alliance told me that if I still want to go to the rivers and lakes, I will stay in the villa and be a housekeeper, so Qin recommended myself, although my martial arts are not high, I am not very famous in the rivers and lakes.

But if Shen Daxia doesn't dislike it, Brother Qin is willing to serve Daxia with the power of dogs and horses. ”

"I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it at all."

Shen Qiu helped Qin Xuming up, and he said:

"I will have a lot of thoughts in my heart, and it will be difficult to take care of affairs, the affairs of the villa will be handed over to Brother Qin to deal with with it all, if someone wants to leave, there is no need to stop it, give some money to practice.

If you want to stay, you can stay all, and everything will be said after Uncle Ren is buried. ”

"Okay."

Qin Xuming smiled at Shen Qiu, and he said:

"Then Qin will leave first."

After speaking, he turned around and left, and after a while, a team of chariots and horses set off from the camp, carrying Ren Hao's coffin, to Zhongshan outside Jinling City, seventy miles away.

There are also masters of the rivers and lakes accompanying him.

Wuyang Zhenren, Huang Wumiao, Yuanwu Monk, and a group of Jianghu people who can still walk, all have to go with them to preside over the funeral ceremony of the alliance leader.

Ren Hao is the head of the rivers and lakes, and he can't be sloppy in this posthumous matter.

After they left, the whole camp seemed to be silent.

The Southern Dynasty army and horses went to chase and block the rout of the Northern Army, but they had not yet returned, and the big tent in the military camp over there was also very deserted. It's like a lively feast, and it's time to disperse.

"Xiao Tie's side, you have to go and see, his situation is not right."

Zhang Lan quietly appeared behind Shen Qiu, he said a word, and Shen Qiu nodded silently.

Lei Shiyin's matter, he already knows.

He also couldn't comment on Lei Shiyin's behavior.

But last night, the righteous path was able to win so completely, and so many people were able to survive, all because Lei Shiyin dragged Yang Tao and the Holy Fire Sect out of the battle when the battle was at its worst.

If there was no Lei Shiyin, in that situation last night, Ren Hao's last battle would not be with Zhang Moxie, but with Yang Tao, who was bathed in the holy fire and immortal, and was also beyond the heavenly list.

And with Ren Hao's state of ghosts and gods at that time, defeating Yang Tao may not be a problem.

But to kill, it is simply impossible.

"Call Li Yijian and them, call Uncle Mu too, and then invite Lin Yundong and General Li Shouguo to come over and gather in the small iron room."

Shen Qiu said to Zhang Lan behind him:

"I have something to say."

Zhang Lan's expression changed, he didn't ask more, turned around and hugged the bandaged little white kitten boy, and went to pass the word.

Shen Qiu returned to the camp and walked into the room where Xiao Tie was resting, and when he walked into the room, he suddenly stopped.

In front of him, Xiao Tie's whole body was covered with bandages, and he was sitting on a chair, with his back to the door, and he was holding Juque in his hand, he was like a stone, dead and silent.

Shen Qiu looked at Xiao Tie's hair.

That short stubble, as always, but...

White-headed overnight.

Xiao Tie's hair was all white, like a layer of snow falling on his head, making this sixteen-year-old boy seem to have changed overnight.

Shen Qiu's eyes were full of regret.

He can fully understand the sorrow in his brother's heart at this time, and he can also understand why Xiao Tie has changed so much overnight.

In addition to the grief in my heart.

is also because the thousand-year-old flame burning in his body, in his heart, healed Xiao Tie to a near-death state overnight, and at the same time, it also consumed too much of his energy.

This gray hair is not just because of despair in my heart.

"Are you better?"

Shen Qiu walked in front of Xiao Tie, he looked at Xiao Tie who was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed, pranayama, and said:

"Can you still fight?"

"Yes!"

Xiao Tie's tone was hoarse, like a cloth rubbing, and he said:

"Who is Big Brother going to kill?"

The tone is dead, as if the heart is dead.

"I'm not going to kill anyone, it's not time yet."

Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and put it on Xiao Tie's shoulder, through the bandage, he could feel the temperature contained in Xiao Tie's flesh and blood, just like a person with a high fever, his hands were hot to touch.

The holy flame left by Lei Shiyin is transforming Xiao Tie's body, like a heart fire ignited in his heart, to create a peerless martial artist.

"Isn't there anything you want to say to me?"

Shen Qiu said softly:

"If you don't say a word like this, I'm worried about you."

"Big brother don't worry, I'm just... I learned a few truths. ”

Xiao Tie opened his eyes and looked at Shen Qiu.

The holy flame entered his body, and the pupils of his eyes seemed to turn into beating flames, and his eyes were sharp, as if two swords were stabbing at him.

He tried to put a smile on his face, but he couldn't.

After last night, he had forgotten how to laugh, so he could only say to Shen Qiu with a calm face:

"My eldest brother told me that if you want to grow, you must first kill the child in your heart. Only when the boy in his heart dies can a real man stand up. ”

Xiao Tie stood up, a head taller than Shen Qiu, he looked into Shen Qiu's eyes, and he said softly:

"Big brother, Xiao Tie is dead...

Just last night, I killed him with my own hands.

From now on, there will be no cowardly and incompetent Xiao Tie in this world, who will only rely on others, and in the face of calamity, there is nothing to be done except pray. ”

There was no joy in Shen Qiu's eyes.

In the depths of his eyes, there was only a touch of empathetic suffering, growth, what a simple word, but what a heavy thing it represented.

"Then what should I call you in the future?"

Shen Qiu asked softly:

"Revenge?"

"Qianshanjun left a message for her eldest brother, she said, holding the Juque Sword, it is Qianshanjun, my master is also called Qianshanjun, and I should also be called that name."

Xiao Tie touched the giant que in his hand, and he said in a hoarse tone:

"Big brother, call me, move the mountain."

"Are you serious?"

Shen Qiu said word by word:

"Do you know what path you're taking?"

"I know."

Xiao Tie, no, Qiu Yishan took a deep breath, and he said:

"I've set foot and can't retreat, Shiyin, still waiting for me, the holy volcano, still there, Penglai Mountain, too. I'm going to take those two mountains, I'm going to destroy them forever and ever!"

Isn't it the same with Big Brother?

Last night's battle, the eldest brother was confused, I found the target, the eldest brother found the martial arts, and after that, our brothers will walk this way.

I'll never be a burden to Big Brother again. ”

"Good!"

Shen Qiu let out a sigh, he patted Xiao Tie on the shoulder, and said:

"My brother has ambition, then you will go through this journey with your eldest brother. As I just asked you, moving mountains, can you still fight? ”

Xiao Tie replied:

"Big brother just need to tell me, who is the enemy?"

Shen Qiu smiled and said like a whisper:

"The whole world, the whole world, everyone.

But before that, we have to solve the troubles left by Shiyin. ”

At Shen Qiu's voice, the calf turned around, and saw a large group of people walking into the house and stopping in the courtyard.

Headed by Lin Yundong, the head of the house.

She was one of the orphans before the death of the prodigal monk.

It is about the inheritance of the Heluo Gang, and she must be present to testify.

There is also General Li Shouguo of the Tiance Army, who is currently the person with the highest status in the camp, and he must also be invited to be a witness.

Lin Huiyin and Li Baoguo, with disciple salutes, followed behind the two.

Then there are Li Yijian, who are the elders and high-level leaders of the Heluo Gang, and Lang Mutou, who controls the most elite of the Heluo Gang, and a group of gangs formed with the remnants of the Zhaizhai as the backbone.

Those gangs are behind these high-level people, and almost all of them are injured, Lei Shiyin brought more than a thousand people, and in the battle last night, there were less than 800 people left.

But the first battle of the second big dragon head out of the mountain was completely wiped out of the Demon Sect, and the prestige of the Heluo Gang was greatly enhanced.

Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie walked out of the door, and Zhang Lan took a few steps forward and followed Shen Qiu's right hand.

Shen Qiu's state is not in his heyday, killing ten thousand poisons, although he has the night end glass in his hand, there are still murderous poison residues in his body, which makes his face a little blue, and under his clothes, he is also wearing a belt.

He stood on the steps, looked at the people in front of him, and was not entangled, just said so straightforwardly:

"The leader of the Heluo Gang, Lei Shiyin, feeds the tiger with her body, and destroys the foundation of the Demon Sect, even if she is already a saintess of the Holy Fire Sect, she is also a decent heroic hero!

Yesterday's events must be spread all over the world, so that everyone in the world knows the morality of the leader of my Heluo Gang!

However, a serpent cannot be without a head, and a gang cannot be without a leader for a day.

Today, I invited Master Lin and General Li to come and testify, in order to determine the third leader of the Heluo Gang. ”

Shen Qiu's words made nearly a hundred people in the courtyard whisper, but in all fairness, he was right.

"Qiu Yishan, you are the son-in-law personally formulated by Lei Ye, after Shiyin is gone, you are the most suitable person to become the leader of the Heluo Gang, let me ask you, would you like to be the third leader?"

Shen Qiu asked.

Xiao Tie shook his head, and he said loudly:

"I want to pick up Shiyin back, and I have no intention of participating in the affairs of the Heluo Gang."

"Lang Mutou."

Shen Qiu asked again:

"You are an elder in the gang, Luoyang, Jinling has contributed a lot, and you have to be respected by the brothers in the gang, and you are a general under the command of Lei Ye, are you willing to become the third leader?"

"I have the old Lord in my heart."

Lang Mutou, a tall and thin elder, said bluntly:

"Although he is a member of the Heluo Gang, he doesn't have much loyalty in his heart, and he can't become a big leader, Shen Daxia, please find another talent."

The atmosphere in the field was a little awkward for a while.

General Li Shouguo played with the iron ball in his hand, listened to his son Li Baoguo, and introduced him to the previous affairs of the Heluo Gang, while Lin Yundong, who was wearing a veil, shook his head.

She spoke, in that trademark Lolita voice:

"Shen Qiu Daxia, you don't have to be so troublesome, what you did in Luoyang and Jinling, the people in the rivers and lakes are in the eyes, you have killed ten thousand poisons this time, you are famous all over the world, and you are Lei Ye, the person trusted by Shiyin.

Although you are not a member of the Heluo Gang, you will take over as the leader, and everyone will have nothing to say. ”

"Yes!"

Li Yijian's three people also shouted, and Li Yijian shouted loudly:

"Brother Shen, you don't have to shirk, you are the leader, everyone is convinced!"

"Whoever dares to chew his tongue will cut him with a knife!"

Yi Sheng also catered loudly, but said what he thought.

The elites in the courtyard also agreed, they were very familiar with the deeds of Shen Qiu, the hero of Heluo, and they all knew that Shen Qiu married Lei Ye's niece, and he could be regarded as his own family member of the Heluo Gang.

Everyone thinks there's nothing wrong with this.

"I can't."

Shen Qiu waved his hand and said:

"I already plan to establish my own sect, how can I be the leader of the Heluo Gang again? It doesn't make sense. ”

Shen Qiu also excused himself, he looked at a person in the crowd.

In the next moment, everyone followed Shen Qiu's gaze and fell on Li Yijian, who was holding the knife, Li Yijian was stunned, he realized something bad from Shen Qiu's gaze.

He actually had the idea of turning around and running away, but he was grabbed by Xiaosheng and Xiaohu left and right.

"Elder Heluo Li Yijian."

Shen Qiu flicked his fingers and said in a deep voice:

"Come forward!"
