Chapter 169: Mysterious Gray Robe
Loneliness, sometimes it is not the path that a person really wants to take in his heart, perhaps he is forced by the situation and has to choose to be alone, because he does not want to lose it again after having it. He would rather never have it than the inhuman torment he had to lose again after having it.
But when a person who was originally lonely and only left with himself suddenly knows that he still has relatives and is still cared for one day, that kind of warmth cannot be replaced by anything, and he is even willing to sacrifice everything for it.
Dongfang Qi and Dongfang Bai, who rushed to the front at the same time, stopped at the same time, frowned and looked at Dongfang Xian, who had been blocked by the knife, not daring to take a step forward, not knowing what to do, for fear of unintentionally ordering to kill Dongfang Xian.
Leng stood motionless between Wuxin and Dongfang Xian, the long narrow and dark knife in his hand was Dongfang Xian's chest, as long as Wuxin gave an order, he could instantly pierce Dongfang Xian.
If it hadn't been for the timely unintentional stopping, Dongfang Xian would already be a dead man at this time, because the cold knife just now was originally stabbed at Dongfang Xian's throat, and he changed direction in time when he heard Wuxin's shout.
Dongfang Jue looked at Dongfang Xian, who was once again forced by others with a knife, and couldn't help but shake his head, secretly scolding his second apprentice in his heart for not being angry. In fact, with Dongfang Xian's strength, he will not be so vulnerable, perhaps because his heart is already in chaos at this time, how can a person who is in a disorder of mind cause harm to others.
Dongfang Jue looked at the apprentice who was forced by the knife, then looked at Wuxin's eyes, and said slowly: "Why don't you kill him?" The reason why he asked this was not because he was looking forward to killing his apprentice unintentionally, but because he felt a little puzzled, because his side obviously looked more powerful and had a big chance of winning, but Wuxin missed two opportunities to take the initiative.
Wuxin looked at Dongfang Jue expressionlessly, and said lightly: "I'm just telling you, if I want to kill someone, I don't have to beat around the bush, let alone hide it, I don't dare to admit it if I kill someone, but if you want to slander me, it's not so easy, and by the way, remind your apprentice, if there is another time, I won't show mercy to my subordinates, killing him is as simple as drinking tea for me, don't force me again!"
For the people of Fengyue Valley, Wuxin has shown mercy to his subordinates more than once, especially Dongfang Xian, if he didn't want to kill him, he would have killed him in the manor outside the capital. But he didn't have the intention, because he didn't forget the favor that Dongfang Jue let him go at a critical moment in the Valley of the Wind and Moon.
"Young man, pay attention to who you're talking to!" The gray-shirted old man, who had been standing next to Dongfang Jue and lowered his head, suddenly raised his head and took a step forward, with a hint of anger on his face, obviously feeling that Wuxin's words had collided with his master.
Dongfang Jue waved his hand, stopped the gray-shirted old man, frowned and looked at Wuxin with deep meaning, although Wuxin's words were a bit too arrogant, but Dongfang Jue didn't feel too much when he heard it, because from the first time he saw Wuxin, he knew that Wuxin was a young man who was not afraid of heaven and earth, otherwise how dare he go to Fengyue Valley alone, and how dare he dare to pick up the entire red feather alone, there are few people in the world who can do this. Listening to Wuxin's words, he had doubts in his heart, and he couldn't help but wonder if what his apprentice told him was true.
"I have repaid you for the non-killing feelings I owed you in Fengyue Valley, and I don't owe each other from now on, if you have to think that I killed your people, if you want to kill me, you have no intention of serving me to the end. Wuxin said coldly, and at the same time stretched out his hand and patted Leng on the shoulder. Leng immediately realized and put away the knife on Dongfang Xian's chest, but he didn't leave, still standing between the two of them.
Wuxin actually let go of Dongfang Xian again, this time even Dongfang Xian was completely stunned, as if in Wuxin's eyes, he was like an insignificant ornament, and he seemed so casual and ignorant between life and death, this haunting frustration made him can't help but lower his head, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Seeing that Dongfang Xian was freed from coercion, Dongfang Qi and Dongfang Bai hurriedly went up and pulled Dongfang Xian away, looking at the person who was wrapped in black clothes in front of Wuxin's body with full vigilance, not daring to be careless.
"Fengyue Valley is such a big show. ”
Just when the atmosphere between the two sides was in awkwardness, a voice suddenly came from the second floor of the inn, the voice was strong, with a strong sense of provocation, resounding in every corner of the inn.
Hearing this voice, everyone present couldn't help but turn their heads to look. I don't know when, there was already a person standing in front of a window on the second floor, an old man with gray hair in a gray bun, who seemed to be a few years older than Dongfang Jue, with his hands behind his back, looking coldly at the people in the hall on the first floor.
Almost all of these people in the hall are the top masters in the rivers and lakes, but none of them found that there was already one more person in the inn, and it was too weird to come silently.
Seeing the old man who suddenly appeared, the others were okay to say, but they were just surprised, but Dongfang Jue, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was different from the gray-shirted old man standing aside, and their bodies shook at the same time, their faces were not just surprised, but frightened, and they looked at the old man standing on the second floor in disbelief.
"Zhuge senior?" Dongfang Jue's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the old man on the second floor and asked.
The old man standing on the second floor was obviously stunned for a moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly: "I didn't expect that after so many years, there are still people who recognize me." ”
"I was fortunate enough to meet my predecessors thirty years ago, but I didn't expect to be able to meet my predecessors here again today. Dongfang Jue hugged his fists and said respectfully.
The old man smiled, glanced at the tense Wuxin and the others, looked at Dongfang Jue and said, "Dongfang Valley Lord, if it is convenient, please go upstairs and sit down, I have something I want to say to you." As he spoke, he turned around and pushed open the door of a room, and walked in first, as if he was sure that Dongfang Jue would definitely go, although it seemed that he was asking Dongfang Jue's meaning, but the approach was completely like an order, and Dongfang Jue really agreed.
"Carry me up. Dongfang Jue immediately said to the gray-shirted old man beside him, and the gray-shirted old man did not hesitate, and immediately asked the four black-clothed men to carry Dongfang Jue's recliner to the second floor.
When passing by the three apprentices, Dongfang Jue said in a deep voice: "Before I come out, no one can act rashly. As he spoke, he walked to the second floor, and when he passed by Wuxin's side, he glanced at Wuxin, with a hint of intriguing doubt on his face.
Soon, Dongfang Jue was carried into the room, and then the two men in black went downstairs, only the old man in gray shirt did not go downstairs, he closed the door and stood at the staircase of the corridor, his expression was a little solemn.
Everyone present looked at each other, not knowing what was happening, let alone knowing where the gray-robed old man who suddenly appeared was sacred, and he actually made the dominating Dongfang Juedu bow down, which shows the status of this person in the rivers and lakes.
Time passed minute by minute, but Dongfang Jue and the old man had not yet come out of the room, and there were already people who couldn't wait, and slowly began to find the nearest steps and chairs to them, and began to sit down, the atmosphere at the scene slowly became less tense, but they were still divided into two obvious camps, and they still did not relax their vigilance.
Wuxin also returned to the table he had sat at just now, but there was no teapot or teacup on the table at this time. He was also puzzled in his heart, and he was also guessing what the old man who suddenly appeared was, but he didn't notice that since the old man appeared, the "shadow" on the side had undergone a slight change, as if he was a little excited.
I don't know how long it took, but the door of the room finally opened, and the old man slowly walked out of it, with a relaxed smile on his face. Seeing the gray-robed old man come out, everyone present stood up from their chairs and steps almost at the same time, and looked at the room on the second floor.
Everyone saw that the old man walked out by himself, but Dongfang Jue did not make the slightest movement, and couldn't help muttering in their hearts, wondering if something had happened to Dongfang Jue.
Before the gray-robed old man could speak, the gray-shirted old man standing at the top of the stairs hurriedly rushed into the house, and after a while, he walked out of it and shouted downstairs: "Come on, carry the old valley master down." The expression on his face was a little unnatural when he spoke, and it seemed to be a little dignified.
Immediately, four people went up to the second floor, and after a while, they lifted Dongfang Jue's recliner out. Dongfang definitely didn't have an accident, but his face was more solemn than before he went in just now, and he looked a little pale, and he didn't know what the gray-robed old man told him.
When Dongfang Jue was carried to Wuxin's side, he signaled his subordinates to stop, then raised his head to look at Wuxin, and said slowly: "For the sake of your mercy just now, this is the end of today, but Fengyue Valley will swear to you from now on, no matter how you flee to the ends of the earth, I will hunt you down to the end." A hint of murder flashed in his eyes as he spoke, not like he was joking.
"Master......" Dongfang Xian couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he heard his master say that today's matter was over, he had already lost face in front of everyone today, how could he let go of such an excellent opportunity to kill Wuxin. But as soon as the words began, he saw Dongfang Jue's cold eyes looking at him, and he wanted to speak for a while.
"Let's go!" Dongfang Jue glared at Dongfang Xian and shouted sharply at his three disciples. Seeing him like this, no one dared to talk to him, hurriedly put away the weapons in his hands, and left the inn quickly with Dongfang Jue in his arms, without a trace of delay, as if he didn't want to stay longer for a minute.
No one knew what the gray-robed old man said to Dongfang Jue, and he actually made Dongfang Jue react so much at once, and he didn't know it. But he was not happy that the gray-robed old man had relieved himself of the temporary crisis, because Dongfang Jue had already said before leaving just now that Fengyue Valley would swear to stand with him in the future, and the beams between the two sides were completely settled.
Wuxin slowly stood up from the chair, turned around, looked at the gray-robed old man coldly, and said lightly: "Who are you? What did you say to Dongfang Jue?" He never guessed who the old man in front of him who suddenly appeared was, and he didn't know what he wanted to do.
The gray-robed old man looked Wuxin up and down, the smile on his face became deeper and deeper, and he said slowly: "I helped you out today's siege, why didn't you not say a word of thanks, but turned your head and talked to me in this tone?"
"I don't need others to interfere in my business, even if you don't help me today, they won't be able to kill me! Besides, you may not be helping me!" Wuxin stared at the gray-robed old man's eyes tightly, and said coldly. The gray-robed old man did resolve a vicious battle that might happen today, but it also made Dongfang Jue completely change his attitude towards himself, and in the future, he would no longer only face the strong enemy of Red Feather, but also one more Fengyue Valley.
"Can't even your grandfather interfere?" the gray-robed old man's face changed slightly, and he said sternly, and he said something that made Wuxin like five thunderbolts.
Unintentionally hearing the words of the gray-robed old man, his whole body shook suddenly, and he looked at the gray-robed old man in horror, stunned in place. Pursed his lips and said in disbelief, "What did you say?!"
Before the gray-robed old man could speak, the "shadow" standing beside Wuxin suddenly knelt down on one knee and said loudly: "Master." Thirteen people, kneeling on the ground at the same time, spoke in unison.
Hearing the words of "Shadow", Wuxin's eyes widened, and this time he was completely stunned......
