Chapter 218: To Kill or Not to Kill?

Li Xiancheng made a fuss, and the accompanying dragoon guards couldn't help laughing, and they all turned their heads away, for fear of being seen by the city lord, and even Li Renjie's face was flushed.

After this trouble, Li Xiancheng also put away his face. There are only three people in the city, Zhao, Xiao, and Li, and the place of the play is almost the same.

"You are Zhao Lanjiang?"

"Exactly. ”

Li Xiancheng looked him up and down, this son was burly, imposing, standing there like a sharp blade, at first glance he was a difficult opponent, he decided not to be false and wrong, and went straight to the point, "You are not far away, send the ashes and golden knife of the old city lord Li back to your hometown, say, what do you want from here?"

Zhao Lanjiang was silent.

He got the golden knife inheritance and escorted Li Qiuyi back to his roots, just for a promise, without any other requirements.

Li Xiancheng saw that he didn't speak, "People are busy all their lives, and after all, they are fame and fortune." He took out a silver ticket from his bosom, "Here are 300,000 taels, as long as you nod, the money is yours." ”

Zhao Lanjiang looked up at him with an indifferent expression.

Not only Zhao Lanjiang, but even Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng on the side also frowned. This way to the west, they have experienced countless dangers and countless battles, but in order to fulfill their promise to Li Qiuyi, in the end, Li Xiancheng actually thought of sending him away with a silver ticket, and even Xiao Jinyan, who regarded wealth as his life, felt that it was a humiliation.

"If you don't want money, there are twelve hairpins in Yinyang in my house, which can be compared to the twelve hairpins in Jinling, ring fat and thin, all of them are beautiful women like flowers, if you nod, I will give you a gift. ”

Zhao Lanjiang asked lightly, "What about the conditions?"

Li Xiancheng said coldly, "You send the old city lord home, we Yinyang will inherit your favor, but you are a foreigner after all, take the money and the woman, hand over the old city lord's ashes and golden knife technique, and get out of Yinyang City." We are not welcome in Hidden Sun City!"

Zhao Lanjiang laughed, "What if I don't agree?"

Li Xiancheng waved his hand, and everyone behind him retreated, he stood up, holding the knife in his hand, and said, "Then I have to understand, whether your knife is fast or my knife is hard." ”

Li Xiancheng's sword name is called Broken City, although it is not as good as the golden knife, ranking in the top five on the hundred knife spectrum, and it is also a sharp blade that sharpens iron like clay, not to mention, he has been in the Tongxiang for 20 years, although he has not touched the way of heaven, but he is also the top sword master in the world after the destruction of the golden knife and the crazy knife.

"Draw your sword, for the sake of the old city lord, I will leave you with all your corpses. ”

The moment the city was broken, the true element between heaven and earth moved, and it was as hot as fire before, but at this moment, there was a cold wind. Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng took two steps forward, ready to fight side by side.

Zhao Lanjiang waved his hand and said, "Today, I will use the way of the golden knife to teach the sword technique of City Lord Li. ”

With that, the golden knife came out of its sheath, and a golden light shrouded the blade, which was extremely dazzling. With the golden knife in hand, the entire Hidden Sun City, like a giant beast awakened, seemed to tremble slightly.

Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu Four Fang, each has an old well, since the establishment of the Hidden Yang City, it has existed, supplying the water of the entire Hidden Yang City, at this moment, among the four old wells, the well water actually overflowed.

Li Xiancheng's face changed suddenly, and he remembered a legend back then.

A legend that exists only by word of mouth among the lords of the castle.

Five hundred years ago, after the seventy-two princes fought chaotically and Shujian Mountain was born, the trend of the Three Kingdoms gradually became established, and Yinyang City also faced the situation of breaking the city.

When Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty ordered Liu Boleng and Yao Zhixiao to repair the capital, the whole world to recruit skilled craftsmen, a craftsman surnamed Li volunteered to build the eight-armed Nezha City for the Ming Dynasty, built a shocking array, he did not want money, two

Don't have power, and the only requirement is to ask Daming to help solve the dilemma of Hidden Sun.

This craftsman surnamed Li is from Yinyang City, that is, the ancestor of the Yinyang Li family.

Hidden, hidden.

Yang, dragon also.

Thinking of it, Li Xiancheng's killing intent in his heart became even more determined, and he must not let Zhao Lanjiang stay in Yinyang City, or even stay in this world. He urged the knife intent, and the Broken City Knife tightly locked Zhao Lanjiang's golden knife.

Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng felt that the other party's sword intent was fierce, and if they were a thousand jun, they forced the two to take a step back, not to mention Zhao Lanjiang, who was in the middle of the sword intent, and the two secretly exercised their skills and were ready to help each other at any time.

The knife flashed.

The Broken City Knife slashed towards Zhao Yanjiang.

Zhao Lanjiang couldn't even lift the knife.

This is the gap between the realms, all the way to the west, he has fought with Sun Qiangu, but he has never been so embarrassed at this time, seeing that he is about to break the city and split himself, Zhao Lanjiang was furious in his heart, and an unwillingness rose from his heart, he roared angrily, forcibly exercised his skills, broke through the shroud of knife intent, and raised the golden knife to block.

Bang!

Zhao Lanjiang flew backwards, and the people crashed into the city wall, and several boulders fell from the city, causing a commotion.

Zhao Lanjiang spat out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body seemed to fall apart.

Li Xiancheng's eyes showed a hideous look, "This knife will take your life!"

Saying that, take a step forward, break the city and hold it high, this knife is even more powerful than the previous one, and in an instant, it came to Zhao Lanjiang's forehead, Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng saw this, and even stepped forward to rescue, but Li Xiancheng's knife technique was too fast, and it was too late to stop it.

Zhao Lanjiang saw the other party's knife coming over, and his heart was cold, could it be that he died here today?

Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng shouted, "Zhao Lanjiang!"

Zhao Lanjiang sighed secretly and closed his eyes.

However, the knife did not come down.

Zhao Lanjiang opened his eyes, but saw two fingers, and forcibly clamped the Broken City Knife between his fingers, unable to move forward at all. Looking up, the owner of the finger is the person he wants to kill day and night to take revenge.

Yuwen Tianlu.

Yuwen Tianlu sent it gently, and Li Xiancheng withdrew three or four feet back.

Falling short!

Li Xiancheng was annoyed in his heart, as long as he flicked his fingers again, his broken city knife had already divided Zhao Lanjiang into two sections, this person appeared in front of him, to his surprise, he held the broken city knife upside down, and arched his hand, "Li Xiancheng, the lord of Yinyang City, has seen the governor of Anguo Gongyuwen." ”

Yuwen Tianlu said: "Bullying a junior, what City Lord Li did, he lost his identity." ”

Li Xiancheng said, "This son and my Hidden Yang City are friends and enemies, and there is no personal grudge between me and him, and I also ask the Metropolitan Governor to fulfill it." ”

He is the lord of Yinyang City, Yinyang City is nominally subordinate to the Ming Dynasty, but the city lord is autonomous, and the Ming court does not interfere in the internal affairs of Yinyang City.

Yuwen Tianlu said with a smile, "This person was originally a guerrilla general of the Fengzi Battalion of my Western Army, and later escaped from the military camp due to a crime, and his military membership has not been removed, even if he wants to be investigated, he should be dealt with by the Western Army, what is Li Cheng's idea?"

Li Xiancheng's eyes showed anger, for Yuwen Tianlu, he had already made arrangements, and the time had not yet come, so he put up with him for the time being, so he said, "It's all up to the Metropolitan Governor to decide." ”

Yuwen Tianlu said, "This son escorted the Golden Sword King back to his hometown, Yu Yinyang has merit, and the city lord Li should not chill the hearts of the people of the city and the white horse." ”

Li Xiancheng put away the Broken City Knife, "Xiancheng doesn't dare." ”

Yuwen Tianlu said a few times, and said, "Three days later, the Golden Sword King will be mourned, and he is also a person admired by the official

Army, dealt with by military law. ”

Li Xiancheng nodded yes, and after seeing that Yuwen Tianlu had no intention of leaving for a long time, he had to say goodbye and take everyone away.

Zhao Lanjiang looked up at Yuwen Tianlu.

This is a face that he can never forget, it is the owner of this face, twenty years ago, he personally ordered the officers and soldiers to slaughter the people of Dingzhou, causing his family to be ruined, if it were not for him and his "brother" Zhao Yi hiding in the dry well, I am afraid that at this moment he would have become a ghost under the knife.

Today's Dingzhou is a ghost town.

And at this moment, it was this person who saved him from Li Xiancheng's knife.

His mood was a little complicated, and immediately a flame of revenge ignited from his chest, and he clenched the golden knife in his hand, secretly accumulating strength. Yuwen Tianlu's voice came, "I know what you're thinking, if I were you, I would retain my strength and take revenge when the sword path was completed." Now you are vulnerable. ”

"Vulnerable!"

These four words were poked in Zhao Lanjiang's heart like a knife. Yuwen Tianlu's strength, he has learned it today, Li Xiancheng Broken City Knife hit with all his strength, he broke it with only two fingers, this strength, if he practiced for another ten years, he may not be his opponent.

A sense of frustration swelled in his heart.

Over the years, the word revenge is the driving force that supports him to live, he has practiced hard swordsmanship, and inherited the golden knife, crazy knife knife intent, martial arts Jin half-step through the image realm, in the end, by Yuwen Tianlu "vulnerable" four words, completely shattered.

He yelled at Yuwen Tianlu, "Why!"

He was questioning why Yuwen Tianlu slaughtered unarmed innocent people back then, and he was asking why Yuwen Tianlu would come to the rescue today, but Yuwen Tianlu did not answer.

Or rather, disdain to answer.

He put his hands behind his back, looking at the Hidden Yang City, the people in the city were flowing endlessly, and they seemed to have no reaction to the upcoming war, and said, "This is the first time I have climbed the head of the Hidden Yang City, the western border city, there can be such a grand scene, no wonder Li Qiuyi poured his life into it, and he also had to protect it." It's a pity ......"

Yuwen Tianlu paused slightly, and said, "In a few months, this Hidden Yang City will turn into ruins!"

Zhao Lanjiang said coldly, "Just like what you did in Dingzhou back then?"

Hearing the word Dingzhou, Yuwen Tianlu's face was gloomy, but he was an arrogant person, and the incident had happened, he would not argue, and asked Xiao, Zhao, and Li, "Kill one person, save a hundred people, do you kill or not?"

Li Chengcheng looked at this powerful man and said indifferently, "Don't kill." ”

Yuwen Tianlu said: "Fool." ”

Xiao Jinyan shook his head, "I want to save one person, and I want to save a hundred people." ”

Yuwen Tianlu said, "Greedy." ”

Zhao Lanjiang was silent.

Yuwen Tianlu saw that he was silent, and said, "Although you didn't say it, you made a choice in your heart." Let me ask you again, kill one of your relatives, save a hundred, kill or not?"

Zhao Lanjiang still didn't answer.

Yuwen Tianlu continued to ask, "Kill 30,000 people, and save the world, do you kill or not?"

Zhao Lanjiang's face was bruised, and he said angrily, "This is just your excuse!"

Yuwen Tianlu sighed, "After all, one day, you will understand." ”

Speaking of this, he looked vainly at the Suzaku Fang in the south of the city, twenty years ago, it was because of one of his decisions that he failed the most beloved woman, the once innocent girl.

"Sooner or later, one day, I will kill you with my own hands. ”

Yuwen Tianlu said with a straight face, "I'll wait." However, three days later, on the day of the Great Death of the Golden Sword King, I hope to see you. ”
