Chapter 70: The Second Elder Committed Suicide
After Lu Jianping let go of his hand and dodged, the second elder couldn't control his strength and pushed the stone table more than ten meters away. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The stone table had been smashed into the ground with deep marks, almost sinking into the earth.
This competition was originally a life-and-death struggle, but Lu Jianping chose to stop when he was about to win.
There was already a distinction between the two, and such a result obviously made the second elder a little unacceptable.
"Unexpectedly, in a short period of time, you broke through to the first layer of the Heaven and Man Dual Realm, and your strength became stronger than me. The second elder looked at Lu Jianping blankly, his eyes slowly full of disbelief, "I have murderous intent towards you, if I win, I will definitely kill you." You obviously had the absolute upper hand just now, why did you choose to stop at the last moment?"
The Second Elder was not an innocent and naΓ―ve child, he naturally knew the fate of the losing side in a desperate battle.
Lu Jianping didn't take the opportunity to kill him, which surprised the Second Elder very much.
Lu Jianping looked at the second elder and sighed softly.
"When you and I met for the first time, you witnessed me kill Li Yanci, you didn't choose to kill me and avenge Li Yanci, but took the initiative to be a lobbyist for me to resolve the hatred between me and the Li family. During this time, you have been staying in Zixu Town, and the news of my retreat in the study will definitely not be hidden from you. But you didn't interrupt my practice, but waited patiently for me to get out of the customs and fought me to the death openly. You have many opportunities to kill me, but you didn't do it, how dare I forget this kindness?"
If the second elder was not a righteous gentleman, Lu Jianping would have turned into a pile of white bones a long time ago.
The news of Lu Jianping's retreat in the study can be determined with a little inquiry.
Although Lu Jianping repeatedly told Deacon Liu not to leak the news. But any adult with a normal IQ can deduce this fact based on the situation in Zhenbo Mansion.
The second elder guarded Zixu Town, but did not threaten Lu Jianping through kidnapping and other means, and did not send people to search various places.
Obviously, the fact that Lu Jianping was hiding in the study and retreating was already known to him.
The vast majority of monks are careless about people's lives, and there are very few righteous gentlemen like the second elder, how can Lu Jianping bear to harm him.
"For so many years, I have been following the teachings of my parents and trying to be a good person who accumulates virtue and does good. I have seen many monks, but there has never been a single monk who is not arrogant and domineering. If the three elders hadn't died in your hands, I would definitely have a good time with you and form a New Year's friendship. The second elder took out a jade slip from his arms and threw it towards Lu Jianping, "You have broken through to the first layer of the Heaven and Man Dual Realm, and you need the cultivation method of the eleventh layer of the [Zodiac Sword Technique], and this jade slip that records the [Dog Sword Technique] will be given to you." β
The tone of the second elder was extremely lonely.
Lu Jianping knew the conduct of the second elder, so he was not wary of Yu Jian.
Lu Jianping took the jade slip without hesitation and held it in the palm of his hand.
Looking at the second elder with a sad expression, Lu Jianping asked with a little uneasiness:
"Second Elder, I don't know what your plans are for the future?" Lu Jianping thought for a moment before continuing, "You have maintained a benevolent and righteous demeanor from beginning to end, and have never used despicable means, you are definitely a righteous man and a gentleman, and your character is worthy of learning from all monks. You have taken revenge for the death of the three elders, and you have not been ashamed of the kindness that has been between you for many years. The past has passed, please look at some of it, and don't dwell on the past grievances forever. β
Lu Jianping's heart had a bad premonition.
The jade slip not only records the exercises, but also retains the artistic conception. Monks only need to practice step by step according to their artistic conception to be able to practice the exercises to the extreme.
Due to the influence of artistic conception, it will slowly fade with time, and under normal circumstances, the influence time of artistic conception will not exceed an hour.
Therefore, every monk will carry the jade slip with him. In order to watch the jade slip at any time and feel the artistic conception in the jade slip.
The second elder handed over the jade slip to Lu Jianping, so naturally he couldn't continue his cultivation.
When you think about it, there are ominous signs everywhere.
Listening to Lu Jianping's words, the corners of the Second Elder's mouth showed a self-deprecating smile.
"Not long ago, I facilitated a banquet in order to reconcile you with the Li family. At the banquet, because of the second-order dust incense, I watched dozens of monks die in the hands of Li Shendu, and I didn't stop it. How can I be worthy of the word benevolence and righteousness, and how dare I pretend to be a righteous man and a gentleman?" the Second Elder sighed, and then continued, "At the banquet, I can kill all the monks to curry favor with the Third Elder. After the death of the Third Elder, I had the opportunity to kill you and avenge the Third Elder, but I didn't. I failed to live up to my parents' expectations, failed to be a kind and good person, failed to take care of the three elders, and failed to avenge the three elders. Looking back, I suddenly realized that my life was a joke. What face do I have to live in this world, and what face do I have to continue to be the second elder that everyone admires?"
After the second elder finished speaking, he suddenly put the sword on his neck, and then slashed hard.
In an instant, the sharp sword slashed the throat of the second elder.
Blood flowed down the neck of the second elder, dyeing all the second elder's clothes red in an instant.
"Boom!"
A moment later, the body of the second elder fell to the ground with a bang.
Although he had already had a bad premonition, when he really saw the death of the second elder, Lu Jianping was still stunned.
It wasn't until the corpse of the second elder fell to the ground that Lu Jianping woke up.
Lu Jianping hurriedly rushed to the body of the second elder to see if the second elder was still saved.
What made Lu Jianping feel very frustrated was that the wound on his neck completely took the life of the second elder.
Lu Jianping really wanted to save the second elder, but unfortunately, Lu Jianping didn't have that kind of strength, and he didn't have the panacea of the flesh and bones of the living dead.
Looking at the corpse of the second elder, Lu Jianping suddenly felt weak.
Lu Jianping sat beside the corpse of the second elder dejectedly, unable to think for a long time.
After a long time, Lu Jianping sighed lightly.
"Second Elder, maybe your life is not perfect, but in my opinion, you are indeed a good person who is rare to see in a hundred years. I will build you a mausoleum and carve a tombstone for you to rest under the Nine Springs in order to make a good coffin. In this life, you and I have become enemies, but I hope that in the next life, we can be friends. β
I don't know if it's an illusion, Lu Jianping saw a smile on the face of the second elder.
It seemed as if death was not a terrible event for the Second Elder, but a relief.
