Chapter 21: The Story of Ah Qi
It's dark at night.
Lin Kuohai arranged the residence of Shen Ming and the others, briefly explained some things, and then left.
In the room.
Ador was making her bed, lighting incense, and doing what she was supposed to do as a maid.
"Knock knock!"
There was a knock on the door, followed by Ah Qi's voice outside.
"Come in. ”
The door was slowly pushed open, Ah Qi walked in with two jugs of wine in his hands, he put the wine on the table and didn't speak, Shen Ming glanced at Ah Duo'er.
"Adol, you go and rest first!"
Hearing this, Ah Duoer turned around, she was already smart, looked at the two people in the room, and naturally understood that they had something to talk about, and after flattening the corner of the quilt, Ah Duoer stood up and replied obediently.
"Yes, master. ”
After Ah Duoer went out of the door, Ah Qi turned around and closed the door, and then looked up at Shen Ming, only to see that Ah Qi's always expressionless face looked quite hesitant and a little unnatural at this time.
Shen Ming pushed open the wooden window, the sky was full of stars, the full moon was lacking corners, and the silver moonlight sprinkled down, illuminating the scenery outside the window.
A gust of night wind blew, bringing a hint of coolness, but also taking away a lot of stuffiness and embarrassment in the room.
Shen Ming picked up a jar of wine and patted it open the mud and handed it over, Ah Qi took the jar and raised his head happily to take a sip, raising his sleeve to wipe the remaining wine from the corner of his mouth.
"I'm sorry, sir, Ah Qi is leaving, and I can't follow you at any time in the future, but if Mr. is ......"
Shen Ming turned his head, glanced at Ah Qi, who was in a somewhat depressed mood, raised his head and took a sip of wine, then reached out and took out a bag from his arms and threw it over.
"Sir, what is this ......?"
Shen Ming smiled and said: "The rivers and lakes are sinister, there are many accidents, this bag is a gift I gave you before parting, if you encounter life and death difficulties, opening the bag can protect your life." ”
Hearing Shen Ming say this, Ah Qi suddenly felt that the bag in his hand was heavy, and he had no doubt that this bag would have the effect that Shen Ming said, because he had seen Shen Ming really make a move, and he had also seen Shen Ming perform all kinds of immortal magic methods, since Shen Ming dared to say such a thing, then the things contained in this bag would naturally have this effect.
Ah Qi felt a burst of emotion in his heart, and at the same time, he felt even more ashamed, when he was rescued by Shen Ming in Daxue Mountain, he knelt on the ground and said a word.
"Mr. life-saving grace, Ah Qi has nothing to repay, and he is willing to follow and serve Mr. in this life. ”
Ah Qi thought about leaving by himself, and with Shen Ming's character, he wouldn't say anything, but he still didn't expect that Shen Ming not only didn't blame himself, but gave himself such a big gift before leaving.
"Sir, this ...... This thing is really valuable, Mr. doesn't blame Ah Qi for leaving, Ah Qi is already satisfied, please take back this trick!"
Shen Ming looked at Ah Qi, who handed the bag back, just smiled, and then turned his head to look at the full moon in the sky that was missing a corner.
"The moon is full and lacking, people have clutches, it is common sense, since there has been a farewell, how to blame, your trip is destined not to be peaceful, if there is no trick to defend yourself, there will be a disaster of killing, if you die, then I will be greedy, where to find what you make?"
"This ......"
"Take it, I don't want to hear the news that your Ah Qi died under someone else's knife that day, in this river and lake, I still have a lot of grievances to understand, but I don't have the kung fu to help you take revenge." ”
Ah Qi took a deep breath, pushed the golden beam and poured the jade pillar to kneel on the ground with his fists clenched, his eyes were a little ruddy, and his words were choked.
"Mr. Great Grace, Ah Qi is unforgettable in this life, after Ah Qi understands the past grievances, he will definitely return to Mr. and be a cook with peace of mind. ”
He is not like Adol, he trusts and worships Shen Ming beyond measure, and he has no doubt about Shen Ming's words, he knows that Shen Ming said that he will be killed, then there will definitely be.
Because, Mr. has this ability.
Ah Qi looked at the back of Shen Ming looking up at the moon and drinking, and said this in his heart, he took a deep breath.
"Sir, Ah Qi will tell you a story. ”
......
Many years ago, there was a place called Yanyu Village in the Southland, where the first swordsman at that time lived in seclusion with his wife and children, a strict father, a loving mother, and a rebellious son, living no different life from ordinary people.
But the swordsman is a Jianghu person after all, and the Jianghu people will naturally have enemies in the rivers and lakes, not to mention that the swordsman still has a halo like the first on his head, and there will be no fewer enemies.
The peaceful day was broken on a drizzly day, and the playful son who didn't want to practice the knife was lazy again, and on the way home, he thought that he would meet his father first, and then be beaten, or meet his mother first, and escape the catastrophe.
"But what I didn't expect was my parents lying in a pool of blood. ”
Speaking of this, Ah Qi's eyes were a lot red, both sad and angry.
"Since ancient times, my mother, an ordinary woman, was also killed, and she died of humiliation. ”
The son who escaped the catastrophe because of his greed for fun, after this incident, also grew up overnight, and he who used to ask his father to urge him to get up and practice knives has also become a day before dawn to get up to practice knives until the middle of the moon.
"Later, when I was successful in swordsmanship, I tracked down the murder of my father, because my father was very famous back then, and those who killed my father did not hide their names in order to make a name for themselves, and I easily found some people. ”
On the day of the swordsman's sacrifice day, Ah Qiti broke into the house of an enemy of the year, and with years of hard work, after a hard battle, he defeated the "Xiaoxiang Swordsman" who has been famous for a long time and is quite famous in the south!
"The old man kept saying, "The rivers and lakes are over, and he begged me to spare his wife and children, but he was afraid that he had forgotten how they treated my mother at that time!"
"Go to TM's rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes, my Ah Qi only knows one truth, repay virtue with virtue, repay grievances with grievances, how others treat me, I Ah Qi will repay it tenfold!"
Speaking of this, Ah Qi was obviously a lot more emotional.
So I didn't kill him at once, but let the old man see his wife, sons, and grandchildren, die in humiliation in front of his eyes, just as they did with my parents, and finally kill him in the old man's curse. ”
Shen Ming didn't say anything, just listened quietly, he knew that what Ah Qi needed now was just a quiet observer, listening to him tell what had been buried in his heart for many years.
"But I didn't expect that because of this, I was actually included in the list of villains in the rivers and lakes by Bai Xiaosheng, the reason is ridiculous, that old puppet is a famous knight in the south and recognized by him, but he was killed by me by such means, I am naturally a wicked person, and I was given the title of full of evil, but if I am full of evil, then what was the old puppet back then, the crime is extremely heinous?
Ah Qi smiled coldly, "Huh...... Bai Xiaosheng's fame is reversed, he said this, there are fools who are convinced, full of evil? I simply fulfilled their wishes, since then, I have walked the rivers and lakes and claimed to be full of evil, one day, I will tear off the mask of hypocrisy. ”
