Red Dust, Listen to the Wind and Snow Chapter 50
Outside the cave, the wind and snow were already cold.
In the cave, the atmosphere was suddenly tense and depressing, and there was a smell of death.
Kang Peng looked at Xiang Botong, who was frightened, and his mind, which had already regained his composure, was suddenly chaotic again.
Since he had known Xiang Botong, he had never seen him show such a terrifying expression.
Obviously, Xiang Botong saw people he didn't want to see.
And that person must be the old man with long hair.
Although he didn't know who the long-haired old man was, before Zhen Qiji died, he had told a story of betrayal, and he couldn't help but believe that that person was the terrible person who had multiple identities and stole countless gold and silver treasures back then.
Fear couldn't help but strike Kang Peng's heart.
It seems that it is a very wrong choice to leave Qixue City this time and appear here in order to obtain the treasure.
At this time, Xiang Botong looked at the long-haired old man and said, "I really didn't expect that God would treat you so favorably and let you live well." ”
The long-haired old man said: "Thanks to you, I lost my identity as the master of Qingfeng Mountain Cottage back then, and I have been an unknown person for more than 30 years. ”
Xiang Bodao: "Maybe the nameless person is more terrible than the famous person, the treasure here should belong to you, right?" ”
He couldn't help but feel uneasy when he thought of the story he had told him about this long-haired old man before he came here.
And he controlled his uneasiness, and said: "You are not a nameless person, your reputation shocked the rivers and lakes more than thirty years ago, and you shocked the rivers and lakes in multiple identities. Back then, no matter what kind of identity you earned, the reputation you won was greater than the reputation of me now, who had the dual identity of Qingfeng Mountain Cottage and Qixue City City Lord. ”
The long-haired old man said, "It seems that you know a little bit about me." You saw me here, and I didn't give you a 'surprise'. ”
Xiang Bodao: "Although I know your story, I didn't expect that the person I know is you." ”
"Of course you wouldn't think it was me, because it seemed to you that I was dead more than thirty years ago." The long-haired old man smiled even colder. "How can someone who has been dead for more than thirty years still appear?"
The horror in Xiang Botong's eyes was even heavier.
He asked, "You have always had the opportunity to kill me for so many years, and you have the ability to kill me and get away with it, but why didn't you do it?" ”
The long-haired old man asked rhetorically, "You want to know why?" ”
Xiang Bodao: "The damned person is not dead, as a damned person, I naturally want to know why I am still alive." ”
The long-haired old man restrained his smile and said, "Actually, I don't know why. ”
Xiang Bodao: "However, if you think about it, I guessed a little. ”
The long-haired old man asked teasingly, "Why don't you think I killed you?" ”
Xiang Bodao: "Maybe you don't know why, but you don't want to admit it." If you're willing to tell the truth, maybe you'll be able to get over that hurdle. ”
The long-haired old man said, "It seems that you still understand me so well." More than thirty years later, you can still guess what I think. ”
Xiang Bodao: "That's because no matter how much time passes, your personality will not change." Of course, as a person of temperament, your feelings will not change. ”
The long-haired old man sighed and said, "Yes, maybe you really guessed right." ”
Then, he continued, "If I have to give a reason, I can only tell you that I want your woman to be better off and not sad about the death of her husband." ”
After a pause, he said again: "Wan'er is the woman I love most in my life, and I hope she can live well." ”
Ning Mei looked at Xiang Botong painfully, and he continued: "You are Wan'er's favorite person, I have always wanted to kill you, but I know that after killing you, she will inevitably fall into pain, so ...... I didn't do it for a long time. ”
Hearing this, Xiang Botong's face was full of sadness.
And Kang Peng, Xiao Nuhu and others, who were listening silently, couldn't help but be stunned.
Kang Peng, as the second leader in Qingfeng Mountain Cottage, naturally heard of some past events related to Xiang Botong, but because the time has passed too long, many things have been distorted, and because Xiang Botong is in the position of the owner of the village, no one dares to mention the killing of the master that Xiang Botong is unwilling to face, so he only knows very little.
And he attached himself to Xiang Botong and was willing to be the second leader of Qingfeng Mountain Cottage, just to take revenge from the beginning. Although he is nominally the second leader of the cottage, he rarely asks about the cottage, and because he has been lurking in the Zhen Mansion and rarely has contact with the people in the cottage, even if he wants to know some of Xiang Botong's past affairs, there is no condition.
What's more, he didn't want to know at all, and he didn't really explore it?
However, there was one thing he was very skeptical about.
Since he entered the Qingfeng Mountain Cottage, it seems that he has never heard of Xiang Botong's murder, and there are many rumors about the death of the owner of the village before Xiang Botong, but none of them are related to Xiang Botong. Even if there were, it was he who acted bravely and killed others for the Lord, rather than having any selfish motives to kill the Lord.
The doubts in the hearts of Xiao Nuhu and the others also have some answers.
It is not only Liu Yang and Zhen Xueqing who want revenge, but also the long-haired old man.
The long-haired old man has a grudge with Xiang Botong for more than 30 years, and this time, he is likely to end this hatred after more than 30 years.
He didn't want to wait any longer, on today's day like this, he wanted revenge.
More than 30 years ago, Xiang Botong took the position of the owner of his Qingfeng Mountain Cottage, and wanted to kill him, and also took his beloved woman for himself, how could he not be resentful? After enduring it for so many years, he didn't want to endure it anymore.
Maybe it's because he made up his mind during this period of time, so he wants to start during this period of time. Just when Liu Yang and Zhen Xueqing were about to take revenge, they made themselves ashamed.
If Xiao Nuhu and the others are not wrong in their thinking, then it is easy to explain that he is planning to do this revenge thing, and the plan has changed again and again.
It's just that the long-haired old man's words haven't been finished yet, and the story that belongs to him and Xiang Botong hasn't really been spread out, even if the guess is targeted, it may not really be like reality.
Kang Peng, Xiao Nuhu and the others were all listening, and they didn't interject anything.
They know that now is not the time to chime in.
They also know that they are just a small supporting role, and this duel is completely making wedding clothes for the long-haired old man and Xiang Botong, who have more than 30 years of grievances.
Of course, this is not necessarily true.
Because since killing those little minions outside the cave, entering the cave, and seeing Xiang Kang and the others, Zhen Xueqing has never left Kang Peng with angry eyes.
Although Xiang Botong now occupies the position of the city lord of Qixue City, he is not her biggest enemy.
The person she was going to kill was Kang Peng. Because he was the one who killed her parents.
The person Liu Yang wanted to kill most was not only Kang Peng, but also Xiang Botong. Because when he did the incident that night, Xiang Botong betrayed Shi Zhongquan and resorted to a despicable deception.
If it weren't for more than ten years ago, when Liu Yang was still very young, Shi Zhongquan adopted her, an outcast from Snow City, maybe she would be dead now, even if she didn't die, her life would be a mess, and she would never be able to control her own fate.
It was Shi Zhongquan who saved her and gave her a fresh life.
In her heart, Shi Zhongquan is like a father, majestic, kind, and full of love.
How could she not be resentful of the people who killed Shi Zhongquan and swore revenge?
