"How could Brother Tang kill me?"

"Yes or no, you know. ”

"Could it be...... You want me to kill him?"

"You're not going to kill him. ”

"Why?"

"You and Tang Afu cherish each other and are confidants, so you are reluctant to kill him. ”

"That'...... What do you want me to decide?"

"What I let you decide is not whether to kill or not to kill, but whether to stay or not. ”

"What do you mean?"

"The ruthless swordsman has a lot of means, if we can get his help, wouldn't it be like a tiger to us?"

"But he's from the Valley of Despair. ”

"I know, if he doesn't, we'd better part ways with him. On this trip to Mobei, one is looking for Su He's whereabouts, and the other is temporarily avoiding the edge of the breeze. Therefore, the fewer people who know our whereabouts, the better, if Tang Afu has a bad heart, he will be in trouble if he stays around. ”

"Brother Tang's appearance at the Tianyuan Inn is indeed suspicious, but ...... I don't think he's going to hurt me. ”

"I hope so!"

......

In the dead of night, the tiger's lair and Longtan are quiet.

Liu Xunyi came to the stream with a pot of wine, sat on the ground, looked up at the galaxy, and there was a kind of loneliness and loneliness of "raising a glass to invite the bright moon, and the shadow became a trio".

The stream was murmuring, and the cold wind was gusting. The clouds are faint, and the stars and moon are dark.

Ren Song, Feng and Shui Yue, Yan Lan Yunxiu, but Liu Xunyi has no intention of watching the creation of heaven and earth, and the natural autumn rhyme. Because in his mind, Xun Qin's "anti-ear advice" has been echoing.

Haunting and lingering. Liu Xunyi fell into deep contemplation and couldn't extricate himself for a long time.

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded from behind Liu Xunyi. Immediately afterwards, Tang Afu's thin figure gradually walked out of the darkness. At this time, he was carrying a ruthless sword in his hand.

"The night was long, and I didn't want to sleep. Come out to blow the wind, admire the moon, and drink wine. ”

Liu Xunyi had already recognized Tang Afu's footsteps, but he neither got up nor looked back, just casually raised the wine jug in his hand and shook it lightly, as if he was greeting.

"When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky, I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace?" Looking at the night sky, Liu Xunyi thought about it, and asked without looking back, "Brother Tang, you see, the sky is full of stars, and I don't know the end of the sky...... Is there a person like you and me who always walks alone and stands alone?"

Seeing that Liu Xunyi was in a trance, talking drunk, and being defenseless against himself, Tang Afu's eyes quietly flashed a cold light.

At the same time, his right hand slowly reached for the hilt of the sword.

"I don't know, and I'm not interested in knowing. Tang Afu was casually perfunctory, and at the same time approached Liu Xunyi step by step.

The absent-minded Liu Xunyi picked up a stone, threw it far away into the stream, and said: "Brother Tang, it's rare that the autumn night is cool and the deep valley is quiet, why don't you ......meet Zhou Gongmeng? Are you afraid that I'll be alone?"

"If I dream of meeting Zhou Gong, won't I make you wait all night in vain?"

Liu Xunyi's question had a deep meaning, and Tang Afu's answer was meaningful. The state of mind of the two is like a pebble entering water, breaking the waves without panic, and there are layers of ripples.

It was as if they had anticipated their intention to meet tonight, but none of them would be the first to pierce this layer of window paper.

At this moment, Tang Afu was seven steps away from Liu Xunyi, and his right hand clutched the hilt of the sword tighter. Love Net

In just seven steps, with Tang Afu's swordsmanship, it is enough to take the lives of most people in the world.

Even if Liu Xunyi is a master among the masters, he can't think of completely avoiding Tang Afu's killing moves when he is completely defenseless.

In other words, if Tang Afu suddenly attacked, the drunken Liu Xunyi would see blood even if he didn't die.

However, Is Liu Xunyi really drunk?

"It is difficult to cross the mountain, who is sad and lost the way? ”

"What?" Tang Afu was stunned, as if he didn't understand Liu Xunyi's voice.

"Brother Tang, have you ever tasted betrayed by the people of the world?" Liu Xunyi did not answer the rhetorical question, and there was a hint of sourness in his playful tone, "Today, I am like a lost dog, no matter where I go, I will be rejected and looked at by countless people. I have worked hard for the common people, but the common people regard me as a heinous traitor. They orchestrate me with all their hearts, hunt me down by any means necessary, and hate to skin me and cramp me to relieve my hatred. I don't understand, what kind of hatred and hatred do I have with the rest of the world? Why does everyone grit their teeth at me and hate me like I killed all my family? Am I alive...... Will it really hinder their peaceful world? I'm alive...... I don't know that two months ago, they regarded me as a loyal hero. Why is it ...... in the blink of an eye What makes me laugh and cry the most is that the people who praise me and the people who slander me are a group of people, and they ...... Nine times out of ten, they have never seen me, let alone known or understood me. Whether it is praise or scolding, it is all hearsay, and everyone is the same. Could it be that there are really three people in the world who have become tigers, and all of them have a crooked reasoning of gold? Alas, I really can't fathom the hearts of the people in the world......

Listening to Liu Xunyi's words that he didn't know whether to laugh at himself or complain, Tang Afu couldn't help but recall his unhappy childhood.

Back then, the Tang family was tragically destroyed, he was deceived by Shen Dongshan with rhetoric, and was swept out of the house after being fed poison.

Therefore, he tasted the taste of being betrayed by the people of the world. He has also experienced the days of dislike and white eyes.

Either out of old friendship, or out of the resonance of bad luck, Tang Afu, who wanted to take the preemptive strike, was once again entangled. After hesitating for a long time, his hand holding the sword slowly loosened, and after all, he did not launch a sneak attack on Liu Xunyi.

At the same time, Liu Xunyi, who had been facing away from Tang Afu, raised a smile of relief on the corner of his mouth, and his left hand shrunk in his sleeve was slightly together, and the three stones sandwiched between his fingers were instantly pinched into powder by him, and quietly scattered in the barren grass and sand.

"Actually, Xun Qin has told me everything that happened at the Tianyuan Inn. As for this, Liu Xunyi raised the wine jug, took a few sips, and then wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeves, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner, "I also asked Miss Pan about this matter, her memories are similar to what you said, and the people who appeared in the Tianyuan Inn that day were Ji Hou and Fuyin. It is expected that Miss Pan and the person who poisoned the wine and food were knocked unconscious...... That's them. ”

"So what?" Tang Afu's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was as indifferent as the level in the stream.

"Ji Hou and Fuyin were originally the elders of Peach Blossom Sword Island, but after Yuwen Xiu's death, not only did they not know how to regain their strength and take revenge, but they fell and scattered, led the crowd to find another backer, and switched to Jin Fuyu's command. I guess the two of them are villains who tend to be inflammatory, and it's not surprising that they help the abuse. As for this, Liu Xunyi suddenly turned around and looked at Tang Afu's eyes solemn and complicated, "But I don't understand, you are obviously different from them, why did you also become Jin Fuyu's minions?"

Hearing this, Tang Afu's eyes changed suddenly, but the strangeness was fleeting, and he asked lightly: "How do you know that I am Jin Fuyu's minion?"

"You, Ji Hou, and Fu Yin appeared in the back kitchen of the Tianyuan Inn at the same time...... How can there be such a coincidence in the world?" Liu Xunyi sneered, "You lied that you happened to pass by, such a lame reason...... How convincing is the big husband, who stands up to the sky and dares to act, and the target of your coming to Guanwai is not Granny Peach Blossom at all, but me. ”

"So what?" Tang Afu smiled nonchalantly, "Your head is worth a fortune, Qingfeng and Ling Xiaoxiao promise a lot of profits, and I don't know how many people in the rivers and lakes covet you." ”

"So, you admit that you are here to kill me?" Seeing Tang Afu's bluntness, Liu Xunyi's heart couldn't help but feel a trace of loss.

"Even if you don't ask, I don't intend to keep it hidden. Tang Afu was indifferent to Liu Xunyi's reaction, "I came to take your life." ”

"Brother Tang, you have always had clear grievances and grievances, and you never disdained to grovel to the powerful. How much benefit does Jin Fuyu give you, and it is worth your willingness to be driven by him?"

"At this point, it is useless to talk too much. Tang Afu held the ruthless sword in front of him and said expressionlessly, "Now that you know my intentions, you don't have to pretend anymore, let's make a move!"

"No, if you want to kill me, you won't let me make it to the Tiger's Den Dragon Pool alive. Liu Xunyi turned a blind eye to Tang Afu's provocation, and was unwilling, "Although Xun Qin has been sending people to watch out for you, I know in my heart that with the ability of a ruthless swordsman, if you really want to kill me, don't say that Abaolu and a few people can't prevent you, even if Huang Yangming and Mei Zichuan are veterans of the rivers and lakes, they don't want to do it without leaking." From Tianyuan Inn to Tiger's Den Dragon Pond, you had too many opportunities to kill me along the way, but you never made a move. This shows that I am not wrong......"

"I didn't kill you before, because your life hung by a thread, and I didn't want to take advantage of the danger of others and win. However, not killing you does not mean that I don't want to kill you, and it does not mean that I give up the idea of killing you. Now that you're back to normal, I don't have to have any taboos, it's time to ......"

"Why?" Seeing Tang Afu's stubbornness, Liu Xunyi couldn't help but feel angry, "Whether others don't know the truth, or whether they are hungry for profit, they chase and kill me...... I have nothing to say. But you are different, you are not a person who has fallen into a well, knowing that Qingfeng and the court have framed me in every way, why do you fight for the tiger? For gold, silver and jewelry, for martial arts secrets, for power position? or ...... For women?"

"I'm not interested in any of the stuff you're talking about. Tang Afu said indifferently, "Entrusted by people, loyal to people." I'm only interested in your head right now. ”

Looking at Tang Afu, who was stubborn and had to go all the way to the dark, Liu Xunyi was both annoyed and helpless.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally gave up his inner obsession, waved his hand lazily at Tang Afu, and said bitterly: "That's it! You are not my opponent, and I don't want to kill you." You...... Let's go!"

"I never have a precedent for doing things halfway. Tang Afu refused seriously, "I know that you have inherited Huang Yangming's internal strength for decades, and your skills have increased greatly now, and I also know that I am not your opponent." But I can't go back on Qin and Twilight. Therefore, tonight you and I must make a decision. Even if I am not as skilled as others and die in your hands...... There are no regrets. ”

After saying that, Tang Afu, who was thinking heavily, turned his heart sideways, so his eyes were ruthless, and he drew his sword out of the sheath with a "cang" sound.

In an instant, a silver arc streaked through the air, refracting a faint and terrifying glow in the moonlight.

"Liu Xunyi, now I am not a sneaky assassination, but a challenge to you openly! Victory or defeat depends on ability, life and death...... The two do not owe each other. ”

......
