Volume 1: Night Shine Kyushu Ming Ninety-Nine: Qingming Festival
Blood red, endless red, you can't tell which ones are flames and which ones are blood.
It represents death and fear, a trembling and lingering shadow.
The scenes of the past, similar to the present, constantly overlapped in front of him, which seemed to pull Qiu Shaohu to that moment again, back to the weak and helpless self.
This is a time he has always been reluctant to look back, a scene he has always avoided.
It's been three years...... Yundi Village, those who died, he always remembered the appearance and names of those people, and always remembered the unforgettable hatred.
I only don't want to think back to everything at that time, and think of the scene where they died in front of me one by one.
All dead...... All dead...... They who lived with themselves, who took them in, died one by one in the siege of those people, in the fire of the village......
"You're going to ...... Live well......"
Only the last sentence that Sister Mu Fang left him, the last sentence she told herself before she died......
But at that time, I didn't even have time to think about how much pain she endured before she died, and how strong she was reluctant, before she told herself these sad words. Unable to do so, there was only fear and trembling at that time, and I didn't know what to do.
Why...... Why...... They were going to die, but they themselves survived......
Lian Yang reappeared, covering the scars on his arms and breathing a sigh of relief.
He was affected by Qiu Shaohu's sword light before, and it can be said that if he continues to fight, he will die sooner or later.
At the critical moment, his hidden ability turned the tables against the wind, and in turn calculated the opponent's hand.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, this person was really well prepared for revenge, if he hadn't taken out that strange bell, there would be no now.
Without further ado, it's better to deal with each other quickly.
Lian Yang will not be like the idiot villains in those novels, who have a lot of nonsense in their hands and give the other party a chance to turn the tables in vain.
There was no guy at hand, he walked directly to Qiu Shaohu's side, and took the Yanling knife from the other party who had fallen into fear and lost his mind.
As the battle continues, the knife is already full of gaps, but it is still sharp.
Lian Yang raised the hilt of the knife high, swung the knife violently, and fell towards Qiu Shaohu's neck, about to cut off his head.
Suddenly, the blade of the knife was getting closer and closer to Qiu Shaohu's head.
But it seems to be too close again!
Lian Yang suddenly found that Qiu Shaohu deliberately leaned his head over and leaned towards his hand holding the knife.
Like a swinging sledgehammer, his hard forehead hit the joints of his fingers, and in the severe pain, his hand suddenly lost his strength, and he was obviously hit and fractured.
The forehead skull is the hardest bone in the human body, but the knuckles are scattered everywhere and difficult to gather into a whole, so they collide with each other, often the forehead takes advantage and the fist suffers.
With a "bang", the knife fell to the ground, because it was protected by a copper hat, the blade only scratched a shallow line on Qiu Shaohu's side forehead, and blood flowed down his eye sockets, making his fierce eyes even more hideous.
The clear yellow-brown color, like the reflection of amber, is pure and clear, without confusion.
He had long since broken free from the illusion of fear and regained his senses.
Lian Yang was surprised, and he couldn't imagine why the other party could recover so quickly.
The next moment, I felt a piercing pain coming from my feet.
Looking down, I saw that the Karasuma short knife in Qiu Shaohu's left hand penetrated the surface of his foot and firmly nailed himself to the ground.
I saw that on Qiu Shaohu's flank, blood was gurgling, and it was the same trace as the blade of the Karasuma knife.
Just now, in order to stay awake, Qiu Shaohu directly stabbed the short knife into the soft position of his abdomen, and awakened his consciousness with severe pain.
"That's it!" Qiu Shaohu jumped up, and took out a new Yanling knife from the box behind his back, and held Lian Yang hostage. He didn't forget to cut the other party's hamstring with a knife, making him completely lose the ability to resist.
"Go and repent of the dead man of three years ago!" Qiu Shaohu strangled Lian Yang's neck with one hand, his eyes were like fire.
Lian Yang was almost suffocated, but he actually laughed out loud, "You beat me, but do you think you won?" ”
As he spoke, he turned his gaze beyond the harbor.
Qiu Shaohu realized something at this time, and turned his head to look at the same time.
The barrel guns on the giant ship are already close at hand!
Rows of cannon barrels brewed with a crimson color, and suddenly they were fired one after another at the same moment. Like hundreds of thunderbolts exploding in the ears at the same time, the shock brought by it is earth-shattering!
Covered by artillery fire, the entire watchtower collapsed in an instant. The guards who finally insisted on staying here screamed in horror and fell from the heights one by one. The two Kamui cannons were also affected, and the shelves on which they were placed were completely destroyed, and in the aftermath of the explosion, one cannon was overturned to the ground, and the other fell completely into the sea.
In just a moment, the defense of the entire port completely collapsed. Two huge cannons were destroyed, and the possibility of stopping the two battleships was completely lost.
The black giant ship is about to land in port.
The situation has suddenly evolved in the worst direction.
……
"Huh?"
On the distant mountain road, Tang Xun seemed to sense something, turned his head, and looked at the port, which was already a sea of fire.
"Let's go quickly, if Boss Bai comes over, you and I don't even want to leave." Wu Jingxing couldn't understand why he stopped.
"Nothing." Tang Xun shook his head, just thinking, "Boy, I hope you can hold on to the end." ”
……
Qiu Shaohu was overturned by the air wave of artillery fire, and the whole person fell directly into the corner of the watchtower, there was a sea of fire everywhere, and in the ruins, he was blocked by a wooden plank, so he did not fall directly.
A piece of wood from the burning roof fell and smashed on his shoulder, and if it weren't for the protection of the big gun and the fish scale armor inside, half of his body would have been ruined in this moment.
Lian Yang was still caught in his hand, and the other party was still laughing wildly at this time, saying: "Unless you are Da Luo Jinxian, don't think about turning the tables!" ”
"No, it's the opposite," Qiu Shaohu suddenly calmed down, "Actually, I don't know anything about the Three Thousand Great Roads, but it just so happened that I memorized them all." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the north side.
Outside the port, through the layers of obstacles, he saw the breath of "life" in the twelve signs.
Just like at the beginning, he was in the island of forgetting, and he keenly detected the timing of leaving, exactly the same.
……
"Senior brother, what are you going to do?"
In the surprised eyes of the others on Forgetless Island, Meng Chen had already put his hand on the "Taishang Ji", gathering endless vitality.
The light suddenly appeared, and in the pages of the book, page by page opened rapidly, and endless fluctuations evolved from it, and everyone present could feel that this was such a strange supernatural power, and it was impossible to do the mystery.
With this book as the center, the vast number of fate clues are constantly being sorted out and gathered.
From the dust, we can feel that there are many fates, which have been thought to have been modified and tampered with by unknown factors, and now they are gradually back on track.
"This is it!" Meng Chen knows, this is the key to breaking the game now.
It's impossible to make everything seem like it never happened. But at least, there is now an opportunity to revise and make amends.
Only Meng Chen didn't realize that at the moment when he turned the fate around him, his own fate was also more and more closely bound to it.
……
Forgotten Island.
"It's really, it's getting more and more obvious." Standing beside the two-life forest, Lianmo saw the trees, facing the side of the island, the branches and leaves were growing rapidly, becoming more and more luxuriant.
In the course of fate, the connection of cause and effect entangles each other, and the connection is even closer.
Along with it, not only is the breath of the outside world constantly approaching, but also the prohibition of the island of forgetfulness, which must be opened invisibly, so that the breath of the island will also blend with it.
It was as if heaven and earth were about to come.
……
"Bang!"
Cheng Tingdong used a wooden stick as a weapon, watching the original official of Zhenkang Divine Palace fall slowly, completely out of breath, and he also secretly said that the other party was difficult.
Such a master does not hesitate to entangle himself to the death to buy time for other companions.
Is their plan really so important?
The conflict elsewhere was still going on, and Cheng Tingdong suddenly noticed that those resentful souls had died a lot unconsciously.
The field of vision is also a little clearer.
Naturally, he didn't know that this was the result of Meng Chen's use of "Taishangji", but what he could hear was the earth-shattering noise at the port!
Accompanied by a few rounds of artillery fire from the Nine Infant Battleship, they hit the Xianying Monument!
The tall stone monument collapsed in an instant.
……
Qiu Shaohu watched everything.
He and Lian Yang saw together that the tall stone monument commemorating the martyrs, which had been the Chaomen generation before, collapsed and smashed into the position of the port in a crumbling manner.
In the harbor, two huge black ships, carrying the aftermath of victory, were about to dock, and in the eyes of the people on board, everything in the harbor was already close at hand.
The huge monument of the ancestors, with a heavy momentum, smashed down at this moment.
It is not only the stone stele, but also the will of generations of ancestors of Chaomen, with the desire to protect the city, and the determination to go and never return!
People born by the sea have the courage to face any wind and waves.
On the stele, the light is shining!
"Boom!"
The two giant ships were smashed one after another, not only the deck was smashed through, but also the entire keel structure was completely destroyed.
The huge power ignited the munitions stored in it, but in an instant, the Nine Babies battleship was burning with flames in the explosion, one of which sank directly and completely in front of the port, and the other was also tilted and sinking.
"This ......" Lian Yang didn't expect that the two strongest Nine Infant warships in Lang Country would sink like this?
What's going on?
In fact, everything is also taken for granted.
If it weren't for the fact that Meng Chen made up for the operation of fate at a critical moment, if it weren't for Cheng Tingdong and others who had been stubbornly guarding the Xianying Monument and not letting Zhenkang Divine Palace succeed, if it weren't for Qiu Shaohu who had been delaying time in the watchtower......
There are many ifs that have made us what we are doing.
But one thing is for sure.
It is the martyrs who have died for Chaomen from generation to generation, and their heroic souls are still protecting here.
"The accounts of the living are settled, and you and I still have the accounts of the dead to be settled!" Qiu Shaohu pinched Lian Yang's neck and lifted the other party up.
"Ha, ha, even if you can seek revenge on me, what else can you do?" Knowing that he was going to die, Lian Yang stubbornly stubbornly continued, "If you're going to ask me more about the past, then I'm sorry, I can't tell you anything else—because I don't know anything at all." Except for the ruffians, the rest of the people, I didn't know them before. I'll be willing to destroy your village with them, just for the money!" ”
"Haha, it's ridiculous, that's right, that's all, for a little gold that may not be worth mentioning in your eyes, I'm going to destroy everything you have!"
"Can't think of it, right? Remorse, right? Hate me! ”
"Not only could you not do anything then, but you also can't do anything now! What else can you do but kill me? Torment me? I'm afraid you don't have the time, now you have so many other things to do, so many people to save, so many messes waiting for you to clean up, will you waste time on me alone? ”
"But I'm different, not only did I get the money, I tortured the people who matter most to you! The Tan Ying you mentioned, that kid, I still remember that it was I who took his fingers and listened to his painful screams, and broke them one by one......"
Lian Yang was almost hysterical, he just wanted to use these ways to add a touch of pain to Qiu Shaohu's heart.
Qiu Shaohu was indifferent.
He said lightly: "I suddenly don't want to kill you with my own hands, it will only make me sick." As he spoke, he carried Lian Yang and walked to the edge of the watchtower.
Below, the rising waters and the sparkling silver blue waves underneath.
"Do you know what that is?" He twisted Lian Yang's head to the surface of the sea and said: "Those are all silver and blue ghost bream, I heard that the fish that live in the deep sea have a unique point, that is, although they will gnaw everything, their saliva will invigorate blood and muscles, promote healing, bite a piece of meat, and it will grow well immediately." ”
Lian Yang trembled all of a sudden, and he immediately knew what Qiu Shaohu was going to do.
But before he could beg for mercy, Qiu Shaohu had already thrown him down.
"Puff" into the water, all the fish are attracted by the prey, and they all surround him, and for a moment he can only hear his constant wail, and the blood stains the sea.
It seems that the rumors are true, every time the silver and blue ghost bream gnaws a piece of Lian Yang's meat, it makes him heal rapidly, and he is constantly bitten, recovering, and repeating itself.
The pain of ten thousand fish phagophagoes will remain in his mind until his brain is also gnawed away. And before that, his brain will heal too quickly, and he will have the opportunity to remember this painful process a few more times.
The most worthy way to die for him.
Listening to the gradual silence in the sea, Qiu Shaohu picked up the small waterwheel that was originally put aside, and it burned, in Qiu Shaohu's hands, constantly turned into ashes, just like the thought of the old man, and then drifted into the distance.
On the fifth day of the first month of March, during the Qingming Festival, it is advisable to sacrifice and avoid relocation.
