Chapter 1, Section 8 Midnight Bats
"Drink!" the one-eyed dragon shouted, and raised his sword to slash at Xiao Teng with all his strength.
At this time, Xiao Teng was exhausted, and he was unable to parry at all, so he barely raised his sword to meet him. Hearing only the sound of the "bell", Xiao Teng was shocked and retreated, and he tripped over a small stone under his feet, and his body shook, and he sat down in front of the young man, and the "Qiushui Sword" was also thrown aside.
"Look at how dare you ruin Lao Tzu's good deeds!" The one-eyed dragon could see the opportunity and stepped forward to slash at Xiao Teng.
Poor Xiao Teng, full of ambition to do a vigorous career in the rivers and lakes, did not expect to be planted as soon as he debuted, and he was about to die.
is a good Xiao Teng, knowing that there is no hope of survival, he simply closes his eyes and waits for the ghost knife to fall.
Listening to the sound of "bell" again, Xiao Teng opened his eyes and saw that the ghost head knife had landed. And the one-eyed dragon was settling there in a very strange posture with his teeth and claws, as if he had been clicked on the acupoint, and Xiao Fei was still sitting on the horse far away at this time.
"Boy, what kind of hero is hurting people in the back!" the one-eyed dragon shouted, it was obvious that there was no fifth person here, it must have been the hand of the boy who was still riding on the horse just now.
Xiao Fei jumped off the horse lightly, and walked forward elegantly with a fan, "I'm just a scholar, not a hero." ”
The one-eyed dragon regretted it at this time, he shouldn't be too underestimated, just now he only felt that Xiao Fei, who was riding on a horse, was just a powerless scholar, and he didn't take him to heart at all, just dealt with Xiao Teng wholeheartedly. Unexpectedly, this kid took advantage of his unpreparedness to come to the "golden needle seal". It's not a craft that ordinary people can master. It can be seen that this scholar is a tougher character than the previous one.
The one-eyed dragon didn't seem to be willing to be pinned down like this, and shouted, "If you have the ability to let go of your uncle, we will fight a hundred rounds single-handedly!"
"Hey, I'm sorry," Xiao Fei said with a smile, "I only have this ability." As he spoke, he raised his hand, and another golden needle sealed the opponent's dumb acupoint.
Zhenjiang City, in Su Ji Restaurant. The Xiao brothers had already ordered a large table of wine and food, Xiao Teng ate a lot, suppressed the Five Organs Temple that had just been revolting, wiped his oily mouth, and looked up to see that Xiao Fei had not moved his chopsticks, but just poured himself a drink.
"Brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you sullen since you ran into the one-eyed dragon and Zhou Xingcheng?"
"Alas. Xiao Fei sighed, drank another glass of wine, and said, "Second brother, there are some things that you still don't understand. ”
"Why don't I get it?"
Xiao Fei put down his wine glass and sighed again, "Second brother, you know: I'm not your brother, maybe I don't have the surname Xiao at all." ”
"I know that. When I was nine years old, you came to our house, and you were ten years old. ”
"I was an orphan, and I was just three days old when the master picked me up. At that time, I had a piece of blood in my arms, and my parents told me to take revenge......" Speaking of this, Xiao Fei was already in tears.
Xiao Teng hurriedly poured Xiao Fei another glass of wine.
Xiao Fei raised his head and drank it all, and said, "Soon after I entered Xiao's house, the master was destroyed. The whereabouts of the master, the uncle, and several juniors are unknown. Over the years, I have done nothing, although I always want to avenge my family and master's hatred, but after eight years, I still have no clues!"
"Brother, don't do this. As the saying goes, 'A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late'......" Xiao Teng was not very eloquent, and he didn't know what to say about this matter.
At the age of seven, he was determined to take revenge, voted for a famous teacher three times, and took revenge five times, although he was seriously injured every time, he was defeated again and again, and never flinched. This time we helped to subdue the enemy, and he was so ashamed that he could not defeat the enemy with his own hands, and he was about to kill himself at the grave of his parents......!
The restaurant was full of customers, and it was strange that this young man in elegant clothes was beating the table like crazy and crying loudly.
When Xiao Teng saw it, he felt embarrassed, and hurriedly pulled Xiao Fei up, "Brother, you drank too much, let's go back to the inn!"
"Huh?" Xiao Fei came back to his senses, looked up and saw that everyone was looking at him, and he also realized that he had just lost his temper, so he hurriedly took out a plain towel and wiped away his tears, "Second brother, I'm fine." You go back first, I'm going to be here for a while. ”
"Brother......
"Don't worry, I'll be fine, go back and wait for me!"
"Oh well. Xiao Teng, who had always been obedient to his brother, obeyed his brother's order again and slowly walked downstairs.
Seeing that Xiao Teng had left, Xiao Fei picked up the wine glass, stood up, picked up the wine jug again, ignored the table full of delicacies, walked to the empty seat by the window alone, looked at the pedestrians downstairs, and still poured himself a drink. The wine in his mouth had lost its former mellowness, and it became bitter, and he frowned, his heart was sour, and he silently began to cry.
"How to get to the Zhang family's compound?" a cold and emotionless man's voice came to Xiao Fei's ears from the street.
Xiao Fei raised his teary eyes and looked downstairs, only to see a black figure standing downstairs. Xiao Fei wiped away his tears, and when he looked closely, it was a young man with a knife in black clothes and white face who was stopping a passer-by to ask for directions.
Xiao Fei saw that his face was like a cold jade, his eyes were sharp, and his body exuded a terrifying murderous aura.
"It's supposed to be a killer. Xiao Fei said in his heart.
The man in black seemed to feel the gaze from above, and looked up at Xiao Fei, when his gaze fell on Xiao Fei's face, he was stunned, but there was still no expression on his cold face. Then he immediately lowered his head and hurried away in the direction he had just inquired about.
What a familiar feeling, that cold voice, expressionless face, so distant, yet so familiar. Could it be him...... Han Yubing?
Thinking of this, Xiao Fei was taken aback: If it was really Han Yubing just now, wouldn't he miss recognizing him?
But he thought about it, Han Yubing was most likely a killer, and this time he might be on a mission, so it was very likely that he would pass by here after completing the mission.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fei sat down again, drank wine, and looked out the window.
It's night, and the man in black hasn't appeared yet, Xiao Fei can't help but feel a little anxious. But on the surface he was still unfazed, which seemed to him to have firmly established a belief that he would come.
Upstairs, there was only one guest left, Xiao Er and the shopkeeper chatted in front of the counter, and looked at this strange guest from time to time: he was crying and making trouble before, and then he drank silently alone, and he drank almost more than 20 pots, not only was he not drunk, but he had never even been to the toilet----- where did the more than 20 pots of wine go?
It's midnight, and Xiao Fei hasn't left yet, because the man in black hasn't appeared yet. The shopkeeper was already asleep, and Xiao Er sat at a table, holding his chin with his left hand, and yawning incessantly.
Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared at the end of the long street. This day is the tenth day of the lunar month, the moonlight is not very good, and the black shadow looks particularly blurry in the night, even so, it was still caught by the corner of Xiao Fei's eyes.
It seemed that he had completed the task, but he did not have the panicked escape behavior that he should have after killing someone, but paced on the long street without hurrying, although he walked very fast, Xiao Fei thought that this speed was exactly the general speed that a martial artist who had reached a certain level of cultivation should achieve.
Seeing the man in black walking downstairs, Xiao Fei took out a silver ingot and put it on the table, turned over and floated down from the window.
Seeing Xiao Fei floating down, the man in black was not surprised.
"Is that you?" asked the man in black calmly.
"It's me. The same calm answer.
Then there was no sound, and the two were silent for a while. But no one knew that behind the calm and silence was the same turbulent waves in the chests of the two of them.
Suddenly, the man in black pulled his foot and shot towards the south, and Xiao Fei behind him also turned into a white shadow and followed closely.
This "Su Ji Restaurant" was originally in the south of Zhejiang, and the two of them ran to a wilderness on the southern outskirts of Zhenjiang in less than a moment.
The man in black stood still, and Xiao Fei also stood still.
"Is it really you?" asked the man in black again in his cold voice. But although the voice was cold, it was difficult to hide the excitement in his heart.
"It's really me. Yu Bing, this is true, not a dream!" Xiao Fei said.
"Senior brother. Han Yu called coldly, not the excitement and impulsiveness that Xiao Fei imagined, but another situation in Xiao Fei's imagination---- his heart was as cold as ice.
But Xiao Fei felt very satisfied, it seemed that the sixth junior brother had not changed, and he still had that withdrawn character.
"Yu Bing, are you a 'midnight bat'?" Xiao Fei asked with some feeling.
Han Yubing didn't make a sound, just nodded.
This made Xiao Fei slightly surprised. "Midnight Bat", a newly rising cold-blooded killer on the rivers and lakes in the past two years. It is known for its high asking price and ruthlessness. It is said that he always chooses to kill people in the middle of the night, and his methods are extremely cruel, and he does not leave any clues, only a pair of winged bats painted with the blood of the victims, so he is called "midnight bats" in the rivers and lakes. But no one knows his real name and face, not even whether he is male or female, and the "Midnight Bat" is one of the most mysterious characters in the rivers and lakes at present. But Xiao Fei didn't want to delve into this matter at this time.
"Is there any clue about the division?"
Han Yubing shook his head silently again.
"Do you know the whereabouts of the other four juniors?"
"I only know that the current Kongtong faction's 'Tengbei Flying Phoenix' Zhou Lingfeng is very likely to be the fourth senior brother Ling Feng.
"Well, I've also heard of this person, he is very good at light work, greedy for a good cup of wine, it is very likely that he is him. But...... Who gave him such an awkward bandit name as 'Tengbei Feifeng'?" Xiao Fei smiled and shook his head, "Do you know where Situ Chao, the former leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, lives in seclusion now? As far as I know, there is a junior disciple who is there, as for which one, I don't know." ”
"Situ Chao, someone once bought his head from me and told me where his address was, but I didn't accept the deal. According to the man, he lived in seclusion in the 'Qianyun Villa' at the southern foot of Yanshan, and I don't know the exact location because I haven't been there. Han Yubing, who has always been silent, said so many things in one breath.
"Okay, I'll go to Yanshan!" Xiao Fei said.
"Do you want me to go with you?" I found out that your skills seem to be ......, Senior Brother," Han Yubing didn't say anything.
