The old man looked up at the sky and fell into deep memories: "Back then, my Hua family was in the martial arts of Qinzhong, and it was a well-known martial arts family, but unfortunately in the rivers and lakes, it was inevitable to be contaminated with some grudges and disputes, so the Hua family Ding became thinner and thinner, and when it came to the old generation, my son was the only son of the old man, the only seedling of the Hua family, and his body carried the hope of the Hua family for generations, and carried all the dreams of the old man." ”

"My son is indeed very competitive, he began to practice at the age of five, practiced swords for ten years, and at the age of sixteen, he came to the door to challenge and defeated the famous Qinchuan First Sword Valley Wufeng, which shocked the rivers and lakes. By the age of eighteen, he had defeated thirty-two well-known swordsmen on the rivers and lakes at that time, and he had become the real number one swordsman in Qinchuan. ”

"By the time my son is thirty years old, no one dares to despise the Hua family in the rivers and lakes, and a sword in my son's hand is enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with the best masters in the rivers and lakes. Lao Yu was very relieved at that time, thinking that the revitalization of the Hua family and the dream of Lao Yu for many years were about to come true, but he didn't expect that the upheaval was coming. ”

Old Man Hua took a long breath, and then said: "By the time my son was thirty years old, he was famous, the long sword in his hand had never been defeated, and he was old and decrepit in his previous years to marry a wife and have children, and the other party was also a famous martial arts master in Qinchuan. It seems that his life is almost perfect and impeccable. ”

"But what the old man didn't expect was that as my son's reputation grew, his state of mind began to change. He began to tolerate a little disobedience and questioning from others, and his behavior became more and more domineering and arrogant, especially between their little two, and cracks began to appear. Lao Yu originally thought that this was just some small friction between them, and it was inevitable for the couple to quarrel and quarrel, but he didn't expect that it would be a big mistake later. ”

Ye Feng and Tang Da couldn't help but glance at each other, and they were secretly thinking in their hearts, what big mistake could these two people make if they were noisy?

Old Man Hua sighed: "First of all, my son, who is not going well at home, often does not return at night, and is infatuated with another woman outside. Originally, it was not uncommon for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but that woman was a married woman with a husband!"

"This is the crime of adultery, my family has been chivalrous for generations, I never imagined that my son would do such a thing to corrupt the family morals! Although the woman is married, she is very beautiful, and she is a famous beauty in ten miles and eight towns, which will make my son fascinated and do such a ridiculous thing. ”

What's more, he had a hot fight with the woman, and actually took the woman to live in another courtyard, and the two of them were like husband and wife, openly sleeping together, and never returned home. ”

Ye Feng groaned for a moment.

The sin of adultery has been despised since ancient times. As early as the Qin and Han dynasties, heavy punishments such as palace punishment and even death penalty were set for adulterers. By the time of the Tang and Song dynasties, the punishment was slightly lighter, and the adulterer was only sentenced to one to one and a half years in prison.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the punishment was harsh and changed to a rod punishment, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, believed that heavy codes must be used in troubled times, and the punishment was aggravated, "the adulterer without a husband has a rod of eighty, and the husband has a rod of ninety", and even stipulated that the husband killed the adulterer on the spot, which is a righteous act of killing an unrighteous person, and he is not guilty.

But in any case, what this playboy did was just an affair, and Ye Feng couldn't figure out what the connection was between this and his later killing.

Old Man Hua's tone became heavier and heavier: "Originally, adultery with this woman was already a big mistake, but unfortunately, the old man was still thinking that he was just greedy for a moment of freshness, and he would naturally converge after a long time, so he didn't meddle in this matter." ”

Not long after, his wife was gone

And the husband of the son came to the door and demanded his wife. This matter has been spread in the city, although my son flatly denied it, where is the husband willing to believe it? As soon as they came and went, the two quarreled and tugged. ”

"That husband is but an ordinary farmer, how can he be my son's opponent? It is also my son who has never dared to disobey him, and when he was entangled by this husband, he became angry, and his men did not take it lightly, but he was seriously wounded, and died the next day when he was carried home. ”

"There was only one septuagenarian father in the husband's family, and when he saw his son's tragic death, how could he be willing to give up? When the news came, when the woman heard about it, she was ashamed and hanged herself in the courtyard. ”

When Ye Feng and Tang Da heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, they couldn't imagine that such a romantic affair would cause such a major consequence and involve two lives.

Old Man Hua closed his eyes in pain and sighed: "At this time, the old man still doesn't know about it, and my son feels sorry for the woman's death, thinking that he was forced to die by the husband's father. ”

"At that time, with the prestige of the Hua family in the rivers and lakes and the influence of the local area, the government did not dare to make a mistake, so the county lord personally went to the other courtyard to discuss the matter with my son. It was also my son's ghost who was fascinated for a while, and actually spent money to buy off the county official, and finally sentenced the old father to sit back on false accusations, confiscate the land, and expel him from his hometown!"

"Pity a seventy-year-old man, suddenly his family is ruined, and he is deported, and he wanders alone in a foreign land, which is really a tragedy in the world! The old man only learned about this later, although he severely punished my son, but the old man has not been heard from after all, and it is estimated that he has died in a foreign land. ”

Ye Feng and Tang Da were silent at this time, and they also felt indignant in their hearts.

Severe punishment is nothing more than a few scoldings and a few beatings.

No matter how stern it is, can the dead man be brought back to life? Thinking of the seventy-year-old father, with gray hair and staggering to a foreign land, both of them felt indignant.

Old Man Hua shook his head and sighed: "Unexpectedly, after the old man left, he didn't die. And I don't know how to meet by chance, I even found someone to avenge his son!"

Ye Feng's heart moved, and he asked in a deep voice, "Flying Bat?"

Old Man Hua nodded: "Not bad." About a year after this incident, my son suddenly received a letter of greeting, which was left by this flying bat. ”

"The worship post stated that my son had seduced women, bullied men and women, bribed the government, and forced the lonely old man to death, and declared that in three days, he would take my son's life to repay the blood debt of the farmer's family. Only then did we learn that the old father was dead. ”

Ye Feng frowned, how could a lonely old man know and have the money to invite the most famous killer in the world at that time, the Flying Bat, to avenge his family?

He asked, "What about later?"

The old man Hua snorted: "My Hua family did something wrong in this matter, I can't help the farmer's family, although the old man is willing to make any compensation to them, but my Hua family is a famous family after all, and no one can be allowed to provoke for some reason, let alone threaten to kill my son?"

"So in the past three days, the old man invited martial arts experts all over the world, surrounded my son's room, and was on guard day and night, as long as the flying bat dared to come, he would not come back. But for three days and three nights, there was no movement, not to mention the flying bats, even the birds never flew into the yard of my Hua family. ”

At this time, the old man's face floated

showed an extremely terrifying look, showing the extreme fear in his heart: "However, when the old man pushed open the door of my son's room in the early morning, he saw that my son was sitting in the room, and the blood in the two blood holes in his throat was almost dry, and he had already died of exhaustion for a long time!"

Ye Feng and Tang Da couldn't help but glance at each other, they were both shocked in their hearts, under the gaze of many good hands, they were able to silently sneak into the room and kill the playboy with excellent swordsmanship, and they could also retreat without being noticed at all, such a ghostly behavior was really a bit incredible.

The old man Hua clenched his fists and slammed the hammer on the wall beside him, his eyes burning with anger: "I think my Hua family is quite famous in the martial arts, but the old man can't keep his son!

He almost gritted his teeth and said, "The old man swears from now on that he will repay this blood debt from the Flying Bat!"

Looking at the anger in the eyes of the old man Hua, Ye Feng shook his head, and sighed in his heart, the pawn of the flower family is dead, even if it is a blood debt that must be repaid, then what is the life of the farmer's family of three?

Old Man Hua sighed at this time and said, "I didn't expect that since my son's death, the flying bat has disappeared, and the old man has been looking for him for more than ten years, and there is no news of him." ”

"In desperation, in the past ten years, I can only painstakingly train my grandchildren. Fortunately, like his father, he is extremely talented, he is only in his early twenties, and his swordsmanship has long been blue, ranking among the seven swords in the world, which is enough to comfort the old man. ”

"But the blood debt of the year, the old man has not forgotten it for a moment, so when the gentleman sword Feng Mingli sent out the news that he had received a greeting from the flying bat, the old man immediately came. ”

Old Man Hua clasped his hands tightly, his snow-white long beard trembled, his whole body was not angry, and he said word by word: "As long as the flying bat dares to come, even if the old man fights for this old life, he must pay the price for the blood debt of the year!"

Old Man Hua finished speaking.

Ye Feng lowered his head, he couldn't imagine that there was such a past hidden behind the death of the playboy back then.

From this point of view, what Xu Youcai said by the iron abacus is not a lie, all the people killed by the flying bat have their own way to die, and they have all committed unforgivable crimes.

But why was no one mentioned it before, and he never found any record of it in the criminal department's case files?

Oh yes. Presumably the families of those who were killed, no one was willing to expose the ugly things they had done before their lives and smear the faces of the deceased, so they all tacitly hid this section.

As a result, in the eyes of the world, the flying bat has become a big devil who kills innocents indiscriminately and cares about people's lives, a terrible killer, and no one cares anymore to investigate the secrets behind these murders.

This is the rivers and lakes, this is the human heart.

People always believe in the kind of statement they are willing to believe, and who cares about what is the truth?

Ye Feng was silent, and Tang Da on the side said in a deep voice at this time: "Speaking of which, the letter of worship that the gentleman sword Feng Mingli received must also have the crimes he committed written on it, so he repeatedly shirked it and refused to show it to others." ”

Old Man Hua nodded: "It seems that this must be the case." ”

Then he suddenly sneered and said, "If there really is such a message." ”
