Chapter 27: The Covenant of Master and Apprentice
Su Ciwen is not the only one who is uncomfortable, although the little carpenter has followed his master to the rivers and lakes since he was a child, he has never seen such a bloody scene, and he also feels a surge in his stomach at the moment, which is very uncomfortable.
On the contrary, Gu Baiguo, who was lagging behind, seemed a little calm with the killer Jiang Lao Er, who had no feelings.
They are real people who have seen the wind and waves, and when they see this scene, the first reaction is not disgust, but danger.
The little carpenter didn't know why the tiger skin fat cat had come here with everyone, and when he saw the fat boy running to the back of the hut, he listened attentively, and felt that there seemed to be a voice in the garden behind the hut.
He hesitated for a moment, and said to the people next to him, "You guys wait here, I'll go over and have a look." ”
After speaking, he still felt a little uneasy, and ordered Gu Baiguo again: "If there is anything wrong, immediately take them to run first." ”
Gu Baiguo said worriedly: "Brother-in-law, be careful." ”
The little carpenter walked forward, passed through the dead body that had fallen to the ground, and walked forward with blood, and saw that there were more obvious and simple sword marks on the ground and on the walls of the hut.
He didn't have much research on this, but he felt that the guy who made this sword mark might be a master.
And most likely, it's the one who made this place a slaughterhouse.
He did not enter the house, but went around the circle, and before he could turn the corner, he heard the sound of a hoe digging the ground, and when he came to the courtyard behind the hut, he saw a figure that surprised him a little.
No wonder the tiger cat brought them here.
That person was Mo Daochang, who had been separated from the little carpenter on the river and came from the South China Sea.
I haven't seen it for months, and the blue-gray Taoist robe on the Dao Chief's body looks even older, his hair is a little messy, and there is actually some sweat on his head.
The peachwood sword in his hand was gone, and he was digging a hole there with a hoe.
Not far from him, there lay two corpses, one was an old man with a white beard, and the other was a little girl of fifteen or sixteen.
The tiger skin fat cat has arrived, and he kept circling around Mo Daochang, and the Taoist also recognized the tiger skin fat cat, stopped his hand, and amused the little beast, and saw the little carpenter coming around, and greeted with a smile: "Little brother, I haven't seen you for a long time, why are you here?" ”
The little carpenter was too nervous to do anything, but now he relaxed, stepped forward, and said, "Good way." ”
After greeting him, he explained: "I was sleeping around here last night, and this little beast kept calling in the morning, dragging me to rush here, I didn't expect to be able to see my predecessors here." ”
Mo Dao stroked his beard and smiled: "I see, it's quite spiritual." ”
The little carpenter saw that he was in good spirits, so he dared to ask, "What the hell is going on here?" ”
Na Mo Dao Chang said: "You should have seen the group of dead people outside, right?" These guys occupied the magpie's nest, and killed the original owner of the hut, and also abused the little girl, which is simply heinous. I passed by, and I couldn't look at it anymore, so I took care of this scum......"
When the little carpenter heard this, he was a little shocked: "How can those people do it?" ”
Mo Daochang nodded and said, "Yes, I'm also a little surprised. ”
While the little carpenter was shocked by the brutality of Luo Batian and others, he also sighed for the violence and fierceness of the person in front of him: "The predecessors are really the ...... of contemporary heroes."
Mo Daochang scolded with a smile and said: "Heroes are fart, they just can't get used to rotten people." ”
Although the little carpenter no longer has the intention of being an apprentice to Mo Daochang, it is still very important to have a good relationship with such a high-ranking person.
He saw that Mo Daochang was holding a hoe very awkwardly, so he said, "Senior, haven't you touched a hoe?" Otherwise, I'll dig it for you? ”
Mo Daochang and the little carpenter were old, and they were not hypocritical, so they handed him the hoe: "It's okay, I originally wanted to help this poor grandfather and grandson dig a pit for burial, but I got used to practicing swords, but I forgot about this kind of work." ”
The little carpenter took the hoe and was about to start work, when he heard Gu Baiguo's voice in the distance: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law......"
The little carpenter was a little flustered when he heard her voice, knowing that he had come here, and there was no movement at all, and the little girl was probably panicked, so he said to Mo Daochang: "A few of my friends, I'm afraid that something will happen to me, so I'll go over and say something." ”
Mo Daochang was very open-minded and said okay.
The little carpenter called everyone over, and then introduced it to Mo Daochang, and told everyone what happened here.
Originally, Su Ciwen, Gu Baiguo, Jiang Lao Er and others were very afraid of this Taoist priest who single-handedly slashed everyone in Lianyun Twelve Water Villages, but when they heard the little carpenter's explanation, the two girls were immediately filled with indignation.
Not only that, but he also had a sense of admiration for this immortal-like Dao elder, and he was full of flattery.
Although Mo Daochang is neat and killing, he is not a particularly cold person, and he chats with everyone very calmly, but he is not cold.
The little carpenter saw that the two girls were very lively, pestering Mo Daochang to talk, so he went over to pick up the hoe and began to dig a pit.
Although he was born as a craftsman, he was also a coolie in the end, and he was also busy with the work of the farmland on weekdays.
Mo Daochang was still a little worried, but after seeing his style, he was relieved, walked into the house, and took out the peachwood sword.
Mo Daochang chatted with several other people, Gu Baiguo and Su Ciwen were more enthusiastic, and although Na Jiang Lao Er was still more restrained at first, he admired a capable person like Mo Daochang, and he also opened his mouth later.
This guy has always been indifferent, and he was able to make him speak, obviously Mo Daochang convinced him.
The little carpenter was concentrating on digging a pit, and after a while, the pit was almost there, he asked Mo Daochang, who nodded after checking it, and then went into the house, took out the straw mat inside, wrapped the bodies of the two innocent people, and then the little carpenter filled in the earth, and was busy building a grave.
While he was busy with this, Mo Daochang went to the forest, and when the little carpenter was done, the man made a large piece of wood that had been smoothed out.
This plank, similar to a tombstone, was inserted in front of the grave by Mo Daochang.
He used sharp brushwork to engrave a line of words on it: "The tomb of innocent grandchildren, the heavens are merciful, and the liberation is superborn." ”
The little carpenter glanced at the payment, and there were four big characters written on it.
South China Sea Sword Demon.
What a strange name.
Although the main business of this Taoist chief is cultivation, the work of the Taoist priest has not forgotten, everything is simple at the moment, but he also turned out some objects from the thatched hut and regarded them as sacrifices.
Then, he began to help recite the Transcendence Mantra again.
However, Mo Daochang is obviously not proficient in this aspect of business, and he has been stumbling several times, which is very unsmooth.
What people didn't expect was that Jiang Laoer, who had always been clumsy in words and didn't know how to express himself, was very familiar with this super trick, but he took over this troublesome matter.
It is estimated that after he killed people, he often did this.
Jiang Lao Er read it three times in a row before he stopped, Mo Daochang nodded, and then went to drag all the people in front of and behind the house into the house, added firewood to it, and then set fire to the house, as well as all the sins that happened in it.
After finishing these, the group stood in front of the tomb, looking at the raging fire, and was silent for a long time.
Everyone was in a solemn mood, but Mo Daochang took the lead in stretching his waist, and said to the little carpenter with a smile: "Don't be so sad, in this troubled world, there are people to bury after death, and there are people to help take care of the aftermath and excess, which is already very good." ”
The little carpenter nodded, the world is difficult, and this is indeed true.
Then, Na Mo Daochang turned his head, looked at Jiang Lao'er, whose face was as white as a piece of paper, and said, "After chatting for a while just now, I think your qualifications are quite good, have you considered concentrating on learning swords?" ”
Uh, is that the rhythm of the Apprentice Maniac?
Jiang Lao Er also froze for a moment, but said, "My swordsmanship is very good. ”
Mo Daochang stared at him and said that it was not good enough.
Jiang Lao Er said a little arrogantly: "Since my debut, I have a short sword in my hand, and I don't know how many gangsters I have killed. ”
Mo Daochang smiled and stretched out his hand, but the peachwood sword that he was carrying diagonally flew out suddenly and fell into his hand, and then the person waved the sword casually, but there was an extremely faint but visible sword qi flying out of the sword and falling into the raging fire.
The sword fell, but it cut the fire in half.
The fire was burning on both sides, and the fire was very strong, but where the sword qi swept by, there was an eerie calm.
Grunt...... Jiang Lao Er subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of water, then looked at Mo Daochang and said, "You want to teach me this swordsmanship?" ”
Mo Daochang nodded and said yes, but your foundation is poor, you have to start with the simplest first, as for whether you can reach such a state, it depends on your understanding.
Jiang Laoer's eyes lit up, and he looked very excited.
But he didn't agree immediately, but hesitated for a while before he cautiously asked, "I, a killer with no feelings, can I?" ”
Mo Daochang nodded and said that there is no class in teaching, but if you want to learn, you have to enter my South China Sea lineage, and you have to abide by my rules.
Jiang Lao Er had already fallen into that sword technique, but after thinking about it for a long time, he shook his head.
He said to Mo Daochang: "Still no. ”
He told the promise he made with the little carpenter, and said to Mo Daochang: "I swore a poisonous oath in front of the statue of Master Zu, and I must believe it, although I want to go with you, but ......"
When Daoist Mo heard this, he burst out laughing.
After a long time, he said to Jiang Lao Er: "Yes, I want you apprentice." I also happen to have something to go to Jiangyin Jurong, two months later, I will come back to you, if you are still alive at that time, I will take you away. ”
After speaking, he looked at Jiang Lao Er, but slapped him on the chest.
Jiang Lao Er subconsciously wanted to resist, but in the end he held back.
Syllable!
With a slap, Jiang Lao Er opened his mouth, and a mouthful of black blood spurted out.
