Volume 1 The Boy with the Negative Box, the Fledgling Chapter 10 The Sword Box
Zhongzhou, Qin State.
On the vast land of Zhongzhou, the Qin State is like a sharp sword, the sword is invincible, and vows to wipe out all the incoming enemies.
Someone asked who is stronger and who is weaker among the 100 countries in Zhongzhou? No one can say clearly, after all, they all have their own subject countries, and few dare to say which country is slightly inferior. However, if you want to ask which country has the highest voice, then almost everyone will have the same answer in their hearts - the Qin State.
Especially twenty years ago, in that very turbulent era, the momentum of the Qin State was in full swing. It's not because of anything else, it's just because the Bai family of the Qin State has a proud daughter of the sky - Bai Yourong. No matter how she looks, her martial arts talent has overshadowed the geniuses of the world. is such a strange woman, it can be said that she has raised the prestige of the Qin State to a new level, and even surpassed other countries.
There is an undercurrent of forces on all sides.
At that time, the Qin State was simply a holy place on earth that all the warriors in the world longed for, because there had been a legendary monk there! Even if it was a flash of shock, it was enough to make countless people fascinated to come to the Qin State from thousands of miles away.
Monk, that's the one who surpasses the warrior! Legendary figures, monks can turn rivers and seas, sword in the sky, the immortal asked, and more importantly, a long lifespan!
In Qingyun County, Qin State, Baifu in Changqing City.
A relatively closed secret hall, the main hall under the light is golden and glazed, at this time there are four people sitting around the huge bluestone table, the figure is stretched for a long time, and the surrounding is empty, only the green lantern on the pillar seems to be swaying with the wind.
Sitting in the center of the hall was an old man in a gorgeous robe with a ruddy complexion, who seemed to be kind and friendly, and his beard was white, and the other three people sitting around him were also in their twilight years, but compared to it, their complexion was not as good as that of the old man in the Chinese robe.
The three of them didn't think that the old man in front of them was very kind, on the contrary, they knew that this person was a decisive person. Because, in the Qin State, his name can stop the crying of children at night, and in the suburbs of the Zhou State, Bai Guozhu, who is known as the slaughter of 10,000 people, is him, who once slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people overnight without frowning, so he got the name of 10,000 people slaughtered.
The old man is the pillar of the Qin State, and also the spiritual leader and pillar of the entire Bai family. At the same time, this old man is also the father of Bai Yourong, the proud daughter of the sky.
The light on the bluestone table suddenly went out, and the old man in the center slowly lit it with wax, and the brightness of the lamp shrouded the faces of the four old men.
"I heard that Xiuyuan is back, come and tell me what you think. The old Bai Guozhu broke the silence in the hall and took the lead in speaking.
"Big brother, it's been sixteen years since he Huang Xiuyuan left the Bai family! Now he is licking his face and coming back, it is very likely that he is trying to find out the cause of the death of Yourong's niece back then! If so, then he can't be tossed so much! Otherwise, sooner or later, the Bai family will go to a desperate situation or even perish because of this!" The old man who spoke held his stomach up, and he had a hideous scar on his face, which was left on the battlefield for the Bai family and the Qin State. His tone made his belly fluctuate greatly, and he looked a little excited.
Bai Guozhu was silent for a long time when he heard this, and then he looked at the old man on his right and spoke. "Er, what do you think?"
"Kill!" the man leaned in the darkness of the shadows behind him, his killing intent Ling Ran, and spit out a word very coldly
"Big brother, second brother, fourth brother, listen to me, Xiu Yuan really came back this time not necessarily because of the cause of Rong's niece's death. You can't kill him indiscriminately!" a very elegant old man spat out a cloudy air.
The old man shook his head, reached out and grabbed the elegant old man and said. "Third brother! You don't know who he is Huang Xiuyuan! If you know Li'er, you will plunge into it, and ten cows will not be able to pull it! He has been with Yourong's niece all the year round, and his feelings are very deep! Can you guarantee that he will not come back this time to investigate the cause of Yourong's niece's death?"
"The fourth is right!" said the old man to the right of Bai Guozhu, who was leaning in the shadows.
"Fourth, have you forgotten who carried you out of the pile of dead people in the first place? Second brother! Have you also forgotten who blocked the three swords for you on the battlefield of Chu State? Big brother......
"Okay, sit down, the old man already has a plan. Bai Guozhu interrupted the old man's words in a low tone.
At this time, the old man with scar stood up and said loudly. "Big brother, you can't ruin the Bai family because of an uncertain factor! This is what our four brothers have worked hard to manage, if the eldest brother is not willing to be this wicked person, then let the fourth brother and I do it!"
"Second, fourth, Bai Guoshi! Bai Guoyan! You have changed! You have become greedy for life and afraid of death! You have become insensitive! Power and desire have completely corrupted you! Look at what you have become now? For the sake of the Bai family, you have sacrificed my Bai family's Tianjiao! That is also the only blood and blood of my Bai family! In the past sixteen years, every night I will dream that the little girl who has become Rong will run to the old man and call her father, at that time the old man's heart is more painful than a thousand cuts, and this time the old man will choose to stand on Huang Xiuyuan's side and stand up to resist together! Even if he dies! The old man has no regrets!" Bai Guozhu roared like an enraged lion, painfully telling the regret of the past sixteen years.
At this moment, the door of the secret hall was pushed open by someone, and the whole hall was lifted out of the darkness and brightened. A figure limped over the threshold on one leg, taking two steps and getting closer. The man's face was shriveled and sallow, and he was carrying a long black box behind his back, and the person who came was Lao Huang, and his full name was Huang Xiuyuan! At this moment, his body was no longer rickety, but very tall. Even if the years have destroyed his face, his eyes are still bright.
"Huang Xiuyuan!" the old man with Scar exclaimed.
Lao Huang walked to the front of the four of them very casually, found a seat and sat down at random, and then slowly said to the four old friends. "No one stopped me outside the house, so I walked in on my own. Sixteen years have passed, and everything has long been different, and there are new faces inside and outside the White Mansion. ”
Lao Huang said it easily, in fact, the guards at the gate of the mansion couldn't stop it at all, and even dispatched dozens of mid-congenital periods, several late congenital stages, and one Great Perfection, but they all made Lao Huang's eighteen swords and sword souls.
The old man with scar gasped, he naturally didn't believe that no one stopped him at the gate of the mansion, and secretly sighed at the horror of Huang Xiuyuan's current strength, so he asked. "Huang Xiuyuan, could it be that you came back just to catch up?"
"Since you have killed someone and seen blood! Things are not so simple, the fourth one, you step down! He has already attained great consummation, and it is not an ordinary great consummation! I, Bai Lao Er, want to try your skills and see if you are still as powerful as before!"
"You're no match for him!"
Bai Guozhu pressed Bai Laoer's shoulder and said.
"Hehe, don't be impulsive, Second Master! I only have two questions when I come to your Bai family, what is the cause of Miss Rong's death? Also, who is involved in this matter! In addition to the Qin royal family, I need to know something else!"
The old yellow man grinned harmlessly, but his face was cold in the blink of an eye.
When Lao Huang left Baifu, it was already afternoon. He knew the answer he wanted, and rode away.
Zhongzhou. Jin Kingdom, Raocheng Li Mansion.
The sky is half a moon, and the stars are shining.
Li Fan woke up from meditation and asked the master for a day's advice, which greatly enriched his understanding of the monks in the world. At the same time, Li Fan also told Ye Chui about the general situation of the entire Zhongzhou.
"The hundred countries of Zhongzhou you mentioned, the old man thinks it is very much like a game of chess! A puzzle of a peerless overhaul game created by Gong Shen! Everyone in the world is a chess piece, what a big trick!" Ye Fu sighed, and then said disdainfully. "As for the so-called three major sects in your Zhongzhou, they are not as good as the third-rate sects in Donglanzhou. However, the origin may have been omitted by other Sanzhou sects. ”
At this time, the gate of the garden was opened, and a maid hurriedly ran over to Li Fan and said. "Young master, the prince invites you to Fengtian Pavilion to discuss matters! Please go!"
Fengtian Pavilion is the most heavily guarded place in the entire Li Mansion, and it can be said to be a heavy place for military aircraft. Li Fan rarely went, and he really couldn't figure out why the man was there to discuss with him, and what was there to discuss between them? Although he thought so, he still stepped up his speed, and there was always a trace of bad thoughts in his heart, like a dark cloud suddenly enveloping him.
The Fengtian attic is located in the depths of the Li family's mansion, at this time the lights are bright, the attic has three floors, each floor has four corners and angular shapes like a pagoda.
When he stepped into the attic, he saw a middle-aged man sitting in the hall, looking at the desk in front of him with a frown. The lights on the desk were flickering, and there was an estimated five or six feet long, and the whole black box seemed to be dotted with vermilion plums.
"This box is good, but the more I look at it, the more I feel that it looks a bit like the old yellow sword box? But he doesn't have this vermilion plum on the box. As he approached, he touched the black box and said involuntarily.
But before he finished speaking, the blood red on his fingers told him where was Zhu Hongmei? This was clearly human blood! Almost half-coagulated blood! Whose blood was it?
Li Que settled down and sorted out his thoughts, and turned to look at Li Fandao. "Li Fan, let you come here for this reason! My father hopes that you, as a man, must be calm after listening to my words! Yes, this box is indeed Huang Lao's, but it was sent by the Qin Guo Bai family in the starry night, and Huang Lao's body remained in the Qin Guo Bai family forever. The Bai family said that when they arrived, Huang Lao was already dying with dozens of knives in his body, and it was he who asked them to send the sword box, and wanted to convey a sentence to you: At the beginning, all those who participated in Miss Yourong's death have been hacked to death by Lao Huang's sword, and only the initiator is left with the young master, waiting for you to kill it personally!"
"Poof. ”
Hearing this, Li Fan's eyes were about to split, and his heart spit out a mouthful of blood uncontrollably, his liver and intestines were broken, and he said with some trembling. "Lao Huang, I didn't expect it, why are you so stupid? I am really stupid, I didn't stop you that day! How can you be alone and visit friends? It is nothing more than to test the water for me and want to wipe away the mud on the road ahead for me! It turns out that you are ready to die alone. ”
Perhaps with Li Fan's mood, the atmosphere became sympathetic for a while.
"Li Fan, my son, I'm sorry for your mother and son for my father, I'm sorry for Huang Lao! I'm not a qualified husband, let alone a qualified father! This time, let me handle it?" Li Que looked at Li Fan, who was extremely uncomfortable, and said with some pain.
This time, he chose to face and look directly, instead of running away. More than ten years ago, under pressure, he had given up on their mother and son, but now there is no way to avoid it, and he knows the monstrous strength of the mastermind behind the scenes, and he must face it calmly and no longer shrink aside! He was looked down upon by everyone, even his own son, and everything was the result of his own cocooning!
"You don't deserve to be my father! Now, tell me at once who is behind my mother's murder?"
Li Fan's voice suddenly froze, and the temperature in the pavilion plummeted.
"Don't you ask, okay?Believe that I can give you a satisfactory result?" He didn't want Li Fan to get involved, after all, he was just a teenager.
"Why do you believe you? Who do you think you are? You don't deserve to avenge my mother's revenge, you know? Ask again, who is the perpetrator?"
Li Fan's words were like the tip of a needle, stabbing Li Que fiercely, stabbing him with no skin, and stabbing him with nothing to say.
"Come with me, listen patiently to my story, and I'll tell you who's behind it, okay?" Li Que stood up and slowly walked to the shadow of the attic to light a candle, like a down-and-out beggar begging for mercy.
There was a secret door hidden under the previous shadow, and as the candle was lit, the secret door was slowly being opened.
