"Count life and death?"

Huo Meng clapped his hands and laughed.

"So do you want to count me alive or me dead?"

Xiao Xu Xing smiled: "It's too boring to count when you will be born, and if you want to count it, it is natural to calculate when you will die." ”

Huo Meng's face gradually turned pale.

He snorted coldly and said, "I have counted many lives, but I have never met someone who dares to count when someone else will die." ”

Xiao Xu Xing said: "You have also seen many people, but you have only seen me, a disciple of the Guigu Sect. ”

Huo Meng shouted: "Okay! If you want to calculate, I'll let you calculate enough!" But ......"

Xiao Xu said: "But what?"

Huo Meng said: "But if you count me as dead in ten or twenty years, do I have to wait until ten or twenty years later to settle accounts with you?"

Xiao Xuxing said with a smile: "Don't worry, it won't take ten or twenty years, and it won't take ten or twenty days, you will die quickly." ”

Hearing his words, Huo Meng's blue tendons on his forehead burst out.

The rest of the Black Dao Hall gang members were even more furious, gritting their teeth one by one.

Zhou Gang on the side said angrily: "You dare to say that my second brother will not live for ten days, didn't he eat the bear's heart and leopard gall?

After that, Zhou Gang snatched the wide black knife in Huo Meng's hand, and wanted to behead Xiao Xuxing on the spot.

Xiao Xuxing was still sitting at the table of the tea stall.

He was still caressing the tea bowl.

The tea bowl is still hot.

He still hasn't drunk his tea.

Huo Meng stopped Zhou Gang.

He's seen this kind of trick a lot.

He's not a fool.

He sneered and said to Xiao Xuxing, "Do you think I really can't see it?"

Xiao Xu said: "What do you see?"

Huo Meng said: "You said that I won't live for ten days is just trying to mess with my mind, and when I am in chaos, you are waiting for an opportunity to attack me." Am I right?!"

Xiao Xu said: "If I wanted to make a move on you, I would have come out as early as the first time I saw you." ”

Huo Meng said: "So you mean that even if you don't make a move, I will die?"

Xiao Xu said: "That's the case"

Huo Meng said: "Is my body sick?"

Xiao Xu said: "Maybe not." ”

Huo Meng said: "Am I poisoned?"

Xiao Xu said: "Maybe not." ”

Huo Meng said: "Since there is nothing, why do you say that I will not live for ten days?!"

Xiao Xu said: "Actually, I haven't finished my words yet. ”

Huo Meng said, "What else do you want to say?"

Xiao Xu said: "What I want to say is that not only will you not live for ten days, but you will not even live for ten. ”

Huo Meng's brows furrowed, puzzled.

Huo Meng said: "Ten counts, what ten counts?......

Before he finished speaking, he only heard Xiao Xu Xing say: "One ......"

Huo Meng said: "What 'one' ......?"

"Two ......"

"Three ......"

Huo Meng understood.

It turns out that the ten numbers that Xiao Xuxing said are only dozens of numbers!

Huo Meng said: "You, you don't pretend to be a ghost here, will the Guigu faction only engage in these weird halls?!"

"Four ......"

"Five ......"

"Six ......"

The numbers in Xiao Xuxing's mouth are more than one another.

Huo Meng also gradually doubted his words.

Is it really going to die?

"Seven ......"

Huo Meng struggled to remember what had happened since he stopped him.

No matter how big or small, he has to remember it clearly.

Could it be that he took advantage of his own unpreparedness to poison him?

Could it be that he is so powerful that he can take his own life in an instant?

"Eight ......"

No, it's not!

If he was poisoned, why didn't he feel any discomfort?

If he is profound, why should he be so troublesome?

"Nine ......"

What went wrong?

Why did he have to tell his fortune?

Could it be that the divination technique of the Guigu faction is really so mysterious?

And he said before that he saw something in the yard......

Huo Meng's eyes widened suddenly.

He twisted his neck stiffly.

He habitually clenched his fingers.

but there was nothing in his hands.

His eyes had turned behind him.

He finally knew why he didn't live to be ten counts.

Because Zhou Gang had already stabbed his black knife into his heart!

But after all, he is not a weak scholar who is powerless.

Although the knife had entered his body, his anger at this time had long prevented him from feeling pain.

He kicked back, kicked Zhou Gang a foot away, and yelled: "You brute! You actually killed the eldest brother!"

He pulled out the knife in the hand of a person next to him, and ran in front of Zhou Gang in three steps and two steps.

His knife was fast and sharp, and it stabbed Zhou Gang in the chest.

But.

He didn't stab down.

Because his own chest had been pierced by a sword

"Ten. ”

......

The cold wind is raging, and the clouds are flying.

Zhou Gang put away the knife.

Huo Meng also fell.

There are many incredible things in the world.

One of them is—

The Guigu disciple's fortune telling is really accurate......

The sword that pierced Huo Meng was a soft sword.

There are many people in the rivers and lakes who want to use a good soft sword.

But to this day, there is only one person who can really control it.

That person was standing next to Huo Meng's corpse at this time.

If Huo Meng could see this person with his own eyes, then he would definitely be surprised.

Because this person was still drinking tea at that small tea stall.

He's skinny.

So thin that his clothes seemed to be draped over a skeleton of bones.

His clothes were bright red.

His soft sword is also bright red.

Why does he like red clothes and red swords so much?

Actually, he doesn't necessarily like red.

Because he just rubbed that sword lightly, and the sword turned silvery-white.

Yes, he wiped the blood off the sword.

And his sword naturally became bright red because it was stained with too much blood.

It's like his clothes weren't red originally.

Xiao Xuxing looked at him silently.

He didn't seem surprised.

Just like he saw a person drinking tea surrounded by the Black Dao Hall gang before, he was not surprised.

Xiao Xu said: "Your sword is really fast. ”

The red-clothed swordsman said coldly, "You know me?"

His voice was hoarse, like a dead branch in the desert torn by wind and sand.

Xiao Xu said: "Although I don't know your people, I know your sword." ”

The red-clothed swordsman said, "What kind of sword is my sword?"

Xiao Xu said: "Your sword is the world's first soft sword 'Soft Viper', and you are naturally the first swordsman in Jiangling, known as Qi Hongshan, known as the 'Red Ghost'." ”

Qi Hongshan's face was expressionless, he put away the soft viper in his hand, wrapped it around his waist, and then said no more.

There are many people in this world who don't like to talk.

But not being able to talk doesn't mean you can't fry good dishes or write good poems.

It doesn't mean that you can't kill people.

Qi Hongshan stood here in silence like that.

The Black Knife Hall gangs around him wouldn't forget what he had done because of his silence.

Yes, he just killed their big boss, Huo Meng.

However, no one will act rashly.

After all, it was not only Qi Hongshan who killed Huo Meng.

And one of their own.

It's a spooky moment.

There was an eerie silence.

Zhou Gang broke the silence.

He smiled.

That kind of laugh is not kind.

But it wasn't too hostile.

That's just an emotion.

Zhou Gang said: "Your hexagram is really accurate. ”

Xiao Xu said: "Do you also want me to calculate a hexagram for you?"

Zhou Gang arrived: "Don't bother, I'm really afraid of your hexagram now." ”

Xiao Xu said: "But compared to my hexagram, I am more afraid of you." ”

Zhou Gang smiled: "Afraid of me, my martial arts are not high, why are you afraid of me?"

Xiao Xu Xing said: "A person with high martial arts does not necessarily make people afraid, after all, no matter how high his martial arts are, as long as he still has morality in his heart, he will not kill innocents indiscriminately." And a person like you, who can even calculate good brothers like brothers, how can I not be afraid?"

Zhou Gang laughed loudly, he seemed very proud, but he seemed to be a little angry.

Zhou Gang said: "You said it well, but you said two things wrong. ”

Xiao Xu said: "Which two?"

Zhou Gang said: "First, there are no innocent people and no innocent people on the rivers and lakes, only stupid and smart people; second, I regard the two of them as brothers, but they have never regarded me as brothers!"

Xiao Xu said: "How do you say this?"

Zhou Gang said: "This matter has to start with that invitation, do you know who sent this invitation?"

Xiao Xuxing shook his head: "I only know that it was a memorial invitation to the world's No. 1 swordsmith Li Jiudao, and I don't care who posted it." ”

Zhou Gang said: "The name of the person who posted the post is 'Ya Thirteen', and he is the only apprentice of Li Jiudao. And because this banquet is called the 'mourning feast', this invitation is also called the 'mourning post'. Half a month ago, I had a lot of effort to get a mourning post, but I didn't want to participate in this mourning banquet......"

Xiao Xu said: "You are just selling for a high price." ”

Zhou Gang nodded and sighed: "Yes, we originally just wanted to sell it for a high price, after all, this post is really a hot potato, and I don't know how many people have died because of it." ”

Xiao Xu said: "But you only have one mourning post, and one post only sells for 100,000 taels, why can Qi Xiong have 600,000 taels?"

Zhou Gang was furious, gritted his teeth and said, "This is the shameless thing done by the two traitors, Qi Xiong and Huo Meng!"

Xiao Xu said: "Could it be that the two of them have sold this mourning banquet to six people?"

Zhou Gang said: "Yes, this is exactly the stupid thing that the two of them made by themselves! Whenever someone pays, Qi Xiong and Huo Meng ask each other to come back to pick up the post in a few days, but in fact, they don't plan to hand over the post at all!"

Xiao Xu said: "Didn't the two of them tell you about this?"

Zhou Gang said: "No, you never mentioned it to me!"

Xiao Xu said: "But after all, the monk can't run the temple, and the people who come to the mourning banquet of the world's first swordsmith must be some ruthless characters, aren't Qi Xiong and Huo Meng afraid of each other's retaliation?"

Zhou Gang said angrily: "How can they not be afraid, but they have already thought of a clever plan to get out." ”

Xiao Xu said: "I guess their trick to get out should be you?"

Zhou Gang said: "Yes, it's me! They plan to save more money and leave, let me carry the black pot for them! Do you still want to say that they are my good brothers?!"

Zhou Gang's face was red, and the bruised tendons covered his forehead.

Xiao Xu said, "So after you learned about their plan, you invited this red-clothed ghost Qi Hongshan to help you get rid of Qi Xiong?"

Zhou Gang said: "After I knew about this, when I thought that when those enemies cut me with a thousand knives, but the two of them were at ease, I swore that I would kill them! ”

Xiao Xu Xing said: "In this way, you can not only get the mourning post and Qi Xiong's 600,000 taels of silver, but also blame all the blame on me, not only Huo Meng, but even those who bought the mourning post from Qi Xiong will also count the revenge on my head." It's really a good plan to kill two birds with one stone. ”

Zhou Gang said: "This is indeed my plan, and I really can't live with you, but what I didn't expect was that you turned back after you left that day." ”

Xiao Xu said: "There are many unexpected things in this world, and no matter how perfect a plan is, there will definitely be loopholes. ”

Zhou Gang said: "But one thing that makes me wonder is that I and Qi Daxia have been drinking in the yard that day, and after you left, Qi Daxia went into the house to kill people, while I watched the wind in the yard, obviously I didn't see you go back from beginning to end?"

Xiao Xuxing smiled.

This mysterious smile is gentle.

But sometimes it can also feel terrifying.

Xiao Xu said: "It's very simple, because I didn't go back at all." ”

Zhou Gang was stunned.

His eyes became complicated.

Then he burst out laughing and burst into tears.

He laughed for a long time before stopping.

"But since you didn't come back, why did you tell Huo Meng that you went back?"

Xiao Xu said: "Because although I didn't go back, I still know that Qi Xiong was killed by you and Qi Hongshan." ”

Zhou Gang was puzzled: "Since you haven't gone back, how can you know?

Xiao Xu Xing said: "I have neither clairvoyance nor ears, I just have a brain that is not too stupid." ”

Zhou Gang said: "What do you mean?"

Xiao Xu said: "When I went that night, I saw that you were the only one in the courtyard drinking with a man dressed in black and wearing a black veil on his head. And today he appeared here again, and Huo Meng didn't seem to know him yet, otherwise he wouldn't have driven him away......"

Zhou Gang said: "Wait, that night Qi Daxia was covered with a veil in front of him, and he was not wearing the usual red clothes, how did you know that person was Qi Daxia?"

Xiao Xu said: "I said, although I don't know his people, I know his sword. Even then his sword was hidden in the scabbard. The soft viper's scabbard is circumferential around the waist, resembling a belt, and the whole body is copper, which is not difficult to identify. ”

Zhou Gang said: "Since you have already guessed that Qi Xiong was killed by me and Qi Daxia at that time, why didn't you tell Huo Meng directly?"

Xiao Xuxing shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Even if I tell Huo Meng, how can Huo Meng believe me so easily? Unless you admit that you did this, the best outcome is that he will tie you and me back to the Black Knife Hall for interrogation, and even if it is revealed at that time, I can't guarantee that I will not be killed by Huo Meng." ”

Zhou Gang smiled: "I understand, so as far as the situation at that time is concerned, the best result for you is that I, the real murderer, will kill Huo Meng with my own hands." And you said that you went back, just to make me a thief, so that I made up my mind to kill Huo Meng in order not to let you tell what happened that night. Your dozens of numbers are to distract Huo Meng's attention and give me an opportunity to take advantage of. ”

Xiao Xu said: "Yes, it is true. ”

Zhou Gang said: "Xiao Daxia killed the second master of my Black Dao Hall without making a move and a half, and also cleared his suspicions. ”

He shook his head at Xiao Xuxing.

Seeing him like this, the surrounding Black Dao Hall gang also did the same to Xiao Xuxing.

This is indeed a bit ridiculous.

Obviously, before the time of half a pillar of incense, they were all thinking about cutting this white-clothed man with a thousand knives.

Xiao Xuxing smiled: "Wednesday...... No, it's Zhou Da, now that you have got Qi Xiong's money, and the people of the Black Dao Hall are looking forward to you, and you have also got the mourning post that countless people in the rivers and lakes dream of, I admire you. ”

When Zhou Gang heard this, there was no joy on his face, but his brows were furrowed.

"To tell you the truth, although I killed Qi Xiong, I didn't find his mourning note. ”

Xiao Xu Xing said: "You are very familiar with the Black Dao Hall, even if Qi Xiong hides the mourning note, it should not be difficult to find it with your ability." ”

Zhou Gang said: "In the past three days, I have dug three feet into the ground of the entire Wudao Hall, but I can't find this mourning post anyway. ”

He turned his gaze to Qi Hongshan, who was standing on the side without saying a word, and said: "At that time, only Qi Daxia who entered Qi Xiong's room and killed him, could it be ......."

Qi Hongshan was closing his eyes to recuperate, and when he heard his words, he opened his eyes and stared at him fiercely.

Zhou Gang was so frightened that his spine chilled, and he forced a smile: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way...... In fact, I wanted to get rid of the hot potato of the mourning post as soon as possible, so as not to burn myself. Since Qi Daxia favors me, I will also give Qi Daxia the beauty of adulthood ......"

The cold wind is blowing, and the autumn leaves are falling.

Qi Hongshan pulled out the sword in his hand and said coldly: "Shameless villain......
