Hanshan has a valley and three peaks, among which the Guluan Peak occupies the least area, but the mountain is the highest, the eyesight stands on the top of the peak and overlooks, and the mountains and rivers of a hundred miles are in full view. In addition, the more you go up, the more the mountain is tall and straight, after half of the mountainside it is like a knife and axe splitting, almost not half a convex rock, waiting for idle people can not enter an inch, plus the whistling and terrifying valley wind, even if the master of light skills does not pay attention to it a little bit to fall into a powder and break bones, it is therefore the mountain is high and cold and unparalleled, it is difficult for ordinary people to stop, but there are many tribal masters to come to practice martial arts, borrow the wind sword and snow sword hammer to forge martial arts, each piece of mountain stone has the traces left by fists and feet weapons, at a glance, it is like a dangerous building of martial arts.

Xue Hongbi glanced at Gu Luanfeng, and there was only one sentence left in his heart - the height is unbearable!

If a person can stay in this place for ten days and a half months, his mind is already extraordinarily comparable, if he lives for a year and a half, he is afraid that he can escape into the empty door to sit and meditate, but if someone lives here for ten years, then he must have forgotten the warmth and coldness of the world, and has taken off the flesh and bones, and the mortal fetus is no different from freezing snow and dry stones!

Bu Hanying has lived on Guluan Peak for twelve years!

As the master of the Cold Mountain, and shouldering the heavy responsibility of guarding the gate of heaven, Bu Hanying can not close the pass, he is here to practice the sword, and he is also here to control the entire Cold Mountain, every clan is his eyes and ears, every path has his blood flowing, he melted himself into the Guluan Peak, and became the gatekeeper of the Cold Mountain.

Rao is Xue Hongbi's heart was surging at the moment, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of awe for such a person.

Yin Wuji was not interested in going to Guluan Peak to drink the northwest wind, so he asked Mingjing to clean up the house for himself, and came to Bai Zhiwei to talk to her with big eyes and small eyes, I don't know what the doorway was, and instructed Yin Mei to prepare things, so although Yin Mei had the heart to catch up with Xue Hongbi, he had to smile apologetically when he saw this, and pushed Bai Zhiwei to follow.

In a few breaths, the people dispersed, only Xue Hongbi was left behind, he grinded in place for a while, and finally followed Bu Hanying to Guluan Peak.

Unexpectedly, Bu Hanying did not rely on light skills to take him up, but walked up down-to-earth, one large and one small side by side, there were fewer and fewer idlers around, but there were plum blossoms in full bloom, adding a faint cold fragrance to this ice and snow.

"These plum trees were given by your father-in-law."

Just when Xue Hongbi didn't know how to talk, Bu Hanying opened his mouth first, he reached out to catch a petal of falling plum, and his tone was as plain as gossip: "In the twenty-first year of Pingkang, he came to Hanshan to get engaged to Zhiwei, planted 3,000 plum trees here, and accompanied her all the way to the peak, saying that it was '3,000 zhang of white hair, and the fate is like a long (note)', he wants 3,000 white hair to become 3,000 prosperous, and the two of them grow old together, so that Zhiwei will suffer that sadness." ”

Fu Yuanyu planted a plum fragrance road for Bai Zhiwei, but unfortunately the prosperity of three thousand is still there, but the old man is unrecognizable, and the woman he swore to cherish is sad and white-haired, and he himself broke off this life and went to Huangquan alone.

Xue Hongbi wanted to say that he deserved it, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that he had no right to put his beak, so he had to say in a muffled voice: "If it were me, I would have cut down these trees and chopped firewood for burning, and out of sight was clean." ”

Bu Hanying said: "Everyone else loves the house and the house, but when you come here, it becomes a hate...... At a young age, he has a lot of grudges. ”

"I've always been." Xue Hongbi said confidently, "I can't be a wicked person who repays virtue with grievances, nor am I a saint who repays grievances with virtue...... But if I hate a person, I will never forget about the rivers and lakes, and I will fight for the rest of my life. ”

When he said this, he thought that Bu Hanying would inevitably dislike it, but the other party actually laughed: "You have such a temperament, but you are really like Fu Yuanyu when he was young, no wonder he wants to deceive you into being a righteous son." ”

Xue Hongbi was stunned for a moment: "Liar? ”

"Although Fu Yuanyu is strong in martial arts, his gambling luck is very bad, he once lost in the gambling house and only had a pair of pants left, how can he win against your mother's old oilman?" Bu Hanying shook his head, "At the beginning, Fu Yuanyu lost the three cups of dice, and the bet was to shout three times for you, a child who was not born, big brother, who would have thought ...... It's nothing more than relying on the old people to no longer beg you for a while with empty words. ”

Xue Hongbi: "......"

This old demon Fu who killed a thousand knives!

Just when Xue Hongbi was angry, he suddenly realized what was hidden behind these words, he was fourteen years old, Bai Li was pregnant for five years in Yong'an, the Flying Star Alliance had been established, Fu Yuanyu and her were both one of the Nine Palaces, laughing and scolding were nothing, but how did Bu Hanying know?

In a hurry, his eyes widened slowly, and he said incredulously, "Are you—"

Plum blossoms flew to the ground from between her fingers, and Bu Hanying said softly: "I am the Kun Palace of the Flying Star Alliance." ”

After knowing the relationship between Bu Hanying and Bai Zhiwei, Xue Hongbi had already guessed his identity, but when the other party said this sentence in person, it was still like thunder.

Kun is the earth, the virtue is loaded, and the weight of heaven and man is inherited.

Listening to the rain pavilion was afraid of Bu Hanying for twelve years, suffering from the lack of real evidence, and considering his special identity and not daring to act rashly, he had to use the matter of Jiangcheng to subdue the demon to test him, but in front of everyone's eyes, a sword to discuss life and death, Fu Yuanyu washed Bu Hanying clean with a body of blood, and listened to the rain pavilion still wary of Bu Hanying, but he could no longer make a fuss about the Flying Star Alliance to bite the cold mountain.

Actually, they were not wrong in their guesses.

Fu Yuanyu owes most of Bu Hanying's brothers and sisters most of their lives, and there is only one life to offset it.

Xue Hongbi stopped in place, watched Bu Hanying reach into his arms, and took out a letter, the handwriting on it was so familiar, he thought that every stroke was unforgettable on the day he was about to die.

This is the last letter that Fu Yuanyu really left, as early as the day when Yin Mei left Shui Yunze with Bai Zhiwei, he hid the letter in those hand-made things, and waited for Bu Hanying to reunite with his sister, and then read it with his own hands.

Fu Lao Mo has been treacherous and suspicious all his life, and the only person who can make him trust with all his heart is Bu Hanying, an old enemy, until death.

Xue Hongbi opened the envelope and took out a stack of half-finger-thick letterheads, there was no emotion of those people dying, nor did he look back at the sighs of the past, as if the person who was going to die was not Fu Yuanyu himself, he wrote everything after his death here with a calm to indifferent attitude-

Yu Wufang's re-emergence of the rivers and lakes to join the Tingyu Pavilion is indeed her sincerity, because she is determined to take over the palace, if she wants to destroy such a behemoth as the Tingyu Pavilion, she must be eaten and disintegrated from the inside, Fu Yuanyu's life is the name she must get, and Fu Yuanyu has been in exile for 12 years, and now his life is short, if Yu Wufang can achieve his long-cherished wish for him, he will willingly take her head as a stepping stone;

It happened that Fu Yuanyu deliberately separated his relationship with the Replenishing Heaven Sect, and secretly made Yu Wufang and Lu Wugui create a bloody case to force the Wulin League to take the initiative, breaking the stereotype that has nothing to do with Tingyu Pavilion, with the merits of the Battle of Jiangcheng, the prestige and status of the Wulin League are rising, and listening to the style of the Yuge, he will definitely choose to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, so as to form a tripartite wrestling, at least in the next five years, the rivers and lakes will not make a big move, it is a great opportunity to cultivate and build momentum;

Nong Niang is Fu Yuanyu's confidant who stayed in Mending Heaven Sect, and she has secretly helped a lot over the years, but unfortunately her means are not as flawless and neat as jade, Zhou Jiangyun has already become suspicious of her, so Fu Yuanyu simply took her as an outcast, and let Yu Wufang take the first step of Nongniang's life, and he himself pretended to ask Gu Nongniang to come to Jiangcheng, so as to set Zhou Jiangyun and let him personally corroborate the "truth";

Zhou Jiangyun has been greedy for the Yang Book for a long time, and since Fu Yuanyu is dead, he will definitely not let Xue Hongbi go, and this is in conflict with the interests of Tingyu Pavilion, and there will be contradictions between the two, so this is Xue Hongbi's opportunity to escape from Jiangcheng, but he has already exposed his identity and face, and he has no place in the Central Plains since then. Therefore, Lu Wugui prepared in advance for the three roads outside the moat, Xue Hongbi if he chose the avenue to go away with the caravan to the Western Regions, if he chose the trail, he could be picked up incognito, and if he chose to go to Hulu Mountain, Zhou Jiangyun would be waiting for the rabbit nine times out of ten, with his temperament will inevitably be in trouble, there are only two roads of life and death in front of Xue Hongbi, if he leaves with Zhou Jiangyun, Lu Wugui will wait for the opportunity to extinguish, if he is not afraid of death and sticks to his heart, there are Mingjing and Yin Wuji under the cliff to help him survive in a desperate situation......

Word by word, pile by pile, white paper and black words are shocking.

The last letter written by Fu Yuanyu is a fateful situation even though he is dead.

The only thing he didn't dare to be sure about was whether Bu Hanying was willing to come to make this belated decision, not only because it was difficult to settle the old years, but also because he listened to the rain pavilion watching on the side, if Bu Hanying returned to the Central Plains, he would change from the master of Hanshan who guarded the gate of heaven back to a lonely Jianghu person.

The only thing he didn't expect was that Xue Hongbi clearly had a grudge against him, and still took the risk of kidnapping Fang Yongyan and then turned around and returned to the field of life and death, and finally faced Zhou Jiangyun with a fierce temperament.

Providence is unpredictable, people's hearts are uncertain, no matter what the organs are calculated, no one has a last resort.

Bu Hanying sighed: "If you are not a fool if you make a bad move, you are a smart person who is unpredictable in the world...... After so many years, he didn't understand this truth until he died. ”

Xue Hongbi wanted to laugh, but found that she couldn't laugh, so she could only say: "It's because I don't have a long memory, and I'm sentimental." ”

"I didn't want to go." Bu Hanying's tone was still flat, but it was full of indifference, "He owes too much to people and the world in his life, how can he pay with his life?" Hanshan is located between Wule and Dajing, the people of the tribe seem to live in peace, but in fact they are on the single tree, if it were not for the alliance with the Hufa grassland over the years, it has already been carved up, I stayed here for a long time not only to guard the gate of heaven for Dajing, but also to protect my people, what is Fu Yuanyu compared to it? ”

Xue Hongbi's breath stagnated, and he muttered after a while: "But you still went......"

Bu Hanying said: "Because of you." ”

Xue Hongbi was stunned: "Me? ”

"He said that he accepted Xue Hai and Bai Li's child as a righteous son, and the child's temperament was very similar to that of when he was young, which made him very happy, and passed on the entire "Heaven Interception Gong" to you." Bu Hanying bowed her head slightly, "I have to see with my own eyes whether you will become the second Fu Yuanyu." ”

The moment they looked at each other, a chill swept over Xue Hongbi's body, as if every vital point was pointed at by the sword, making his scalp tingle, and for a moment he remembered the scene when he was lying in the snowdrift and watching him kill Fu Yuanyu.

"We all saw you at that time, and he called you stupid, but I think ...... You're good. ”

Just when he was worried, Bu Hanying laughed again, and the chill dissipated with the wind.

"Fu Yuanyu has been a life-oriented, there have been many people around him, and in the end, there is no one left, sometimes life and death are impermanent, and more often than not...... He was the one who left us behind. ”

Xue Hongbi stood in place and didn't dare to move, watching Bu Hanying stretch out his hand and dust off the snow on his shoulder.

"It is true that if you want to achieve great things, you must dare to make trade-offs, everyone has different hearts, no one is qualified to say that the other party's choice of road is unforgivable, Fu Yuanyu was originally just a little more ambitious than others, he wanted too much, but he couldn't hold it with his two hands, so he had to leave some." After a pause, Bu Hanying sighed, "But the rivers and lakes are not single-plank bridges, if you let others have no way out, your own road will become narrower and narrower, maybe you will not wait for the end to come to the end, you will first become a frozen bone in the middle road." ”

Xue Hongbi was shocked.

In his life, the two people who had the greatest influence on him were Du Sanniang and Fu Yuanyu, but the former's path was too extreme, and the latter's path was too cruel, so that Xue Hongbi often suspected that he was wrong, the rivers and lakes were so cruel, and ruthless people like Zhou Jiangyun could enjoy honor, even if they were as powerful as Fu Yuanyun, they would fall to the bottom because of a thought of kindness.

There is nothing wrong with these paths, but they are too narrow and too evil.

What Bu Hanying told him now was a righteous path.

"I ......" Xue Hongbi's mind was a mess, after all, he was too young and had not really experienced in the rivers and lakes, so he could only forcibly speculate, "You want me to ...... Be a good person? ”

Bu Hanying asked rhetorically: "What do you think is a good person?" ”

Xue Hongbi hesitated: "Be kind and charitable, benevolent and benevolent, tolerant and generous, do your best for the country and the people, and be worthy of public and private admiration." ”

"If there is a person who is from a poor family, and has only earned a small fortune after a busy year, and encounters an old man who is hungry and cold, and is afraid that he will freeze to death, he will scatter all his money to save his life, is he a good person?"

"Yes."

"But he has no surplus food at home, and he used this money to save the life of the old man who met in Pingshui, and if he wants to feed his wife and children for the winter, he can only do the thing of roosters and dogs, so what?"

"This ......"

Xue Hongbi was speechless for a while, and before he could think clearly, Bu Hanying asked again: "I have guarded the gate of heaven for twelve years, sheltered the Hanshan tribe to multiply, and refused the invitation of the Wuleqi soldiers to borrow the road, so that the Dajing border pass was less disturbed, is it a good person?" ”

"Of course!"

"The Hanshan people are of mixed blood between Dajing and Wule, both countries are our roots, and now they are close to one side, and even do not hesitate to fight each other, the wolf king of Wule who was killed by my own hands four years ago is my maternal uncle, and there is no shortage of wives and children in the family of the Wule soldiers who died in Hanshan, am I still a good person?"

"You ......"

"Once there is a trade-off, the good people and the bad people only have a position, and if I can't be a perfect sage myself, how can I be qualified to be demanding of others?" Bu Hanying said in a deep voice, "Fu Yuanyu has put such a hard time on you, I hope that you will succeed him as the next Qiangong, and take on the responsibility of clearing old grievances and reviving the Flying Star Alliance...... Xue Hongbi, ask yourself, what kind of person do you want to be? ”

Xue Hongbi didn't say anything for a long time, his heart was surging like a wave, he was sharp on weekdays, but now he couldn't spit out a word.

Before they knew it, they had come to a fork in the road.

"You see, even you don't know, why should we choose the future for you?"

Bu Hanying leaned down, and the white cloth covering the upper left side of his face was blown up by the wind, revealing his left eye, which had been blind for many years, it was tightly closed, and his eyelids were sunken.

However, that right eye was still as bright as the sun above his head, and even in this frozen place, there was a warm glimmer.

"Fu Yuanyu has hidden a lot of things from you, one is that he knows that you don't believe him, and the other is because the stakes are high, he doesn't know what kind of person you will become in the future, and he is only willing to hang you little by little...... And I think about it, no matter which path you choose in the future, no one deserves to hide it from you. Bu Hanying said seriously, "No matter what choice you make, I will tell you what you should know." ”

Xue Hongbi's fists clenched and loosened, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth: "People's hearts are fickle, even I don't know what to do in the future, and these secrets are widely implicated, aren't you afraid that I will make a mistake after I know it?" ”

Bu Hanying really laughed out loud at this time.

He patted Xue Hongbi on the shoulder, stood up and said, "Since I have decided to tell you, I am taking this responsibility, if you really change your mind and betray him one day...... Okay, wait until I'm dead. ”

Speaking of this, the warmth in his eyes froze in an instant, as if a sharp sword was about to come out, and the cold light was broken.

"It is your right as a son of man to know the truth, and it is my duty as Kun Gong to keep the secret for my companions, I can tell you, and I can also make you unable to say it." Bu Hanying didn't treat Xue Hongbi as a child at all, and raised a palm, "I dare to say, do you dare to listen?" ”

That hand was pale and thin, more like the hand of a literati than a warrior with a sword and a sword, but no one in this world dared to treat it as nothing.

Xue Hongbi was silent for a moment and slowly stretched out her hand.

"I promise you." He lifted up his head, "The words of this day will be heard in my ears and remembered in my heart, and not out of my mouth, if this oath is violated...... There is no need for you to trek through mountains and rivers, I will take the head of the person on the item and send it to the cold mountain, the frost and snow erode the skin and the wind blows the bones, and the rotten earth is willing to rest! ”

Three crisp sounds, three high-fives, and the oath was fulfilled.
