Chapter 39: The Sun and Moon Knife

More than 20 years ago, the war that the Demon Cult ignited in various parts of the Three Kingdoms was in full swing, and many sect gangs were recruited by the government to form a martial arts alliance to suppress the Demon Cultists who were ravaging Kyushu.

Yunzhou is located in the middle of Kyushu, the people have always lived a prosperous life, although the demon cult power is not as rampant as other states, but it has also sprung up near the cities, inducing the common people to gather people to cause chaos, and will also send killers to assassinate dignitaries.

As one of the few famous factions in Yunzhou, Fengguangmen inevitably mobilized elites to go to the front line of operations.

Lu Xingwei watched many junior brothers and sisters in the sect hurriedly go in and out with blades every day, and often heard the news of the death of a certain elder and a certain fellow disciple, and added some worries to his sentimentality: "If the Demon Sect hits the Fengguang Gate, my martial arts are so weak, can I protect my junior sister?"

There is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of those who have a heart. Lu Xingwei's martial arts training qualifications were originally very good, but he had a negative mentality and refused to really work hard, but now that he has concentrated his energy, his martial arts have advanced by leaps and bounds, and he defeated all the disciples of the same generation except Huang Xiaosheng in the annual examination.

Master Jiang Bo was surprised and delighted, and two days later, he announced in public that Lu Xingwei would temporarily act as the deputy head of the sect, and the reason was also very good: "The threat of the Demon Sect is getting bigger and bigger, and most of the elders in the sect have to go out to do things, and the younger generation must be led by one person, so that something can happen without chaos." It is very appropriate for him to be cautious in doing things in a small way, to know how to advance and retreat, to abide by etiquette, and to exercise his authority to handle affairs. ”

Lu Xingwei immediately resigned, and many young disciples were also quite unconvinced, but Jiang Boli dismissed the public opinion: "Whether Xingwei can be competent or not, we will see over time." ”

Lu Xingwei met Huang Xiaosheng on the road that day, and remembered that he had never talked with him since that misunderstanding, so he waved enthusiastically and excitedly: "Eh, senior brother...... "There are too many things I want to say next, greetings, sorry, the past...... I didn't know which one to say first.

Huang Xiaosheng stopped, and did not agree immediately, the smile on his face became very strange, as if he was pulled out of it, his lips moved, and he finally spoke: "It's the deputy head, what's the matter with calling me?"

In the summer, Lu Xingwei suddenly felt a little cold: "Senior brother, you ......"

Huang Xiaosheng's smile suddenly became natural again, and he interrupted: "Why is there anything to find me in the deputy head? After saying that, he lowered his head and walked quickly.

Lu Xing looked at Huang Xiaosheng's distant back in a daze, and was confused for a while: When did he have a thick layer of separation from his life and death brothers who talked about everything? After thinking about it, he understood something: Senior brother likes junior sister, but junior sister likes me; senior brother wants to inherit the mantle of master, but master makes me the deputy head; senior brother is angry with me.

But what can I do? I can't do it? I can't just ignore my junior sister and let my junior sister and my senior brother get along? Or resign from the position of deputy head and let my senior brother do it? The former is sorry for the junior sister. As for the latter, the position of deputy head seems to be glamorous, and he is the leader of the young disciples, but he always has to face the calculations of others, and the senior brother is upright and upright, and he can't guard against many things.

After thinking about it, Lu Xingwei still felt that the senior brother just couldn't think about it for a while, and he cared too much about certain things, and after a while of thinking clearly, he would get back together with himself. And what I have to do is to live up to the expectations of my master and sister, and maintain the stability inside the scenery gate.

In the following days, Lu Xingwei really took on the responsibility of the deputy head. The industry outside the Fengguang Gate was destroyed by the Demon Sect, so he ordered people to move the shop to a stable place and stop the loss in time; the young disciples in the door had a bloody conflict, so they first settled down separately, and then investigated and secretly visited, and then dealt with it in public after learning the truth...... Work diligently, without a trace of mistakes, and have won the trust of many people in the door.

After that, the people in the rivers and lakes said that there was Lu Xingwei in the scenery gate, and Huang Xiaosheng outside, a double door, which could be compared with the Yunmo faction in Yunzhou, which ranked among the top ten schools in Kyushu, and the two young talents who have been in the limelight recently. Jiang Bo was very relieved, and passed a pair of treasure knives "Sun and Moon Matchless" to the two, Huang Xiaosheng took the day knife, Lu Xingwei took the moon knife, the two of them were bright and dark, and they were friends of the general horns, and they lived and died together, and gradually became a good story.

In Lu Xingwei's heart, a good picture has been drawn in his future life: after the fall of the Demon Sect, the master will retire to the garden, and the senior brother will become the head, so that he can assist the senior brother while tying the knot with the senior sister to take care of the master.

But fate always seems to like to play the biggest joke when a person is at his most satisfied. Once, the master took his senior brother and fellow martial artists to participate in a very important action, which seemed to be to encircle and suppress an important person in the Demon Sect. Lu Xingwei didn't care about the Demon Sect, he just hoped that the master and the senior brother could be safe, and he and his sister prayed for them every day.

A month later, the master and the senior brother returned, and the senior brother was elated, saying that the encirclement and suppression were very successful, and the demon sect elder was destroyed. But the master looked very unhappy, saying that he was very tired, and went back to his room early to sleep. The next day, Master and Brother suddenly disappeared, and the bedding in their respective rooms was not folded, as if they had evaporated out of thin air.

The whole scenery gate was panicked, and Lu Xingwei and Jiang Ting together made up a lie that the two of them set off overnight to do something important, which finally reassured everyone temporarily. One morning half a month later, Huang Xiaosheng was found lying in front of the bamboo garden, holding a Japanese knife in his hand, covered in dried blood.

Lu Xingwei went to ask the best doctor in Ziyun City to save him, and after three days, Huang Xiaosheng woke up.

Lu Xingwei asked what happened, and Huang Xiaosheng cried and told the story: "That night, someone sneakily walked outside my door and was discovered by me. I chased him out, and the man ran, and when I passed by the Master's door, the Master also came out! We chased the man together and ran out of the city, but we were ambushed by a group of men in black. They are members of the Demon Cult, and they have come to avenge their accomplices. Those people used poison and fishing nets to catch me and Master. ”

"And then, what happened to you? Brother, you're back, but where is my father?"

Jiang Ting asked anxiously.

"Master is dead. ”

Huang Xiaosheng cried so much that even his snot flowed out. Jiang Ting fainted when he heard this, Lu Xingwei was extremely sad in his heart, but he was no longer the weak young man, after taking a deep breath, he asked calmly: "What happened, how did Master die?

"Master died to save me. Huang Xiaosheng was still crying, and his tears couldn't be stopped like spring water, "We were tied with ropes and hoods by them, and we didn't know where we were going to be sent, so we could only eat a little rice and drink a few sips of water every day." The master knew that we were going to be sent to the Demon Sect and would be dead and lifeless, so he desperately urged the internal strength of the secret method to devour himself, broke free from the rope, attacked the people of the Demon Sect, took back the Japanese sword, and slashed and killed many people, but he lost his strength and was inserted many knives. Before he died, Master handed me the Japanese sword, and asked me to come back and be the master, and lead everyone to destroy the Demon Sect together and take revenge. I ran away for days before I finally came back!"

After Huang Xiaosheng finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and raised his hand to the sky: "I, Huang Xiaosheng, will definitely live up to the master's expectations, and will lead the scenery up and down, kill the evil demons, support the community, and benefit the people of Li." If you violate this oath, your organs will be shattered in the future, and your brains will be smeared to death!"

The people of the Scenery Gate were extremely angry, and they picked up their weapons and went to the people of the Demon Sect to kill them. Lu Xingwei stopped them and said: "By all means, now that the head of the sect is gone, our top priority is to handle his posthumous affairs well, and then reorganize the internal governance and stabilize the situation, otherwise other sects are eyeing our industry, and it is likely to take advantage of our lack of manpower and internal chaos." Huang Xiaosheng also wiped his tears and said, "Senior brother is right, let's handle Master's funeral first!"

That night, Lu Xingwei asked the other female disciples to send Jiang Ting, who had fainted, to rest, and told her that he must take care of her and not let her act aggressively. After returning to the room, thinking about what my senior brother said, I always felt that there were suspicious points in many places, and I unconsciously became groggy and fell asleep on the table.

But when he woke up the next day, Lu Xingwei found that he was not in his room, and then he saw that there was a corpse hanging on the beam hereβ€”a female corpse without clothes.
