Chapter 36 The heroes gather in Liangzhou
Liangzhou City under the mountain has become very prosperous, which is something that Bai has never seen before. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The scale of this martial arts conference far exceeded Lu Qian's expectations. There was basically no response when the hero post was sent, but it would crowd Liangzhou to the brim.
All of this is thanks to the news from the Wudang Sect that they have captured the Nether Swordsman alive, and this time they want to seek justice for the many martial arts people who have died.
The news was very exciting, and everyone felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they came from thousands of miles to see a lively scene.
Bai Qian had heard the news when he entered the city, and he was also very curious in his heart.
What kind of face is hidden beneath the terrifying thin iron mask of the Nether Swordsman?
For this question, since the Nether Swordsman first appeared, the rivers and lakes have been speculating for nearly ten years. Even if this issue is not important at all, he doesn't look at his face when he kills, and whether he looks good or not can't change his bloody debts.
But people from all walks of life on the rivers and lakes just like to discuss this issue. After several years of argumentation, it is basically divided into three factions, one group believes that he must be as beautiful as a fairy, like the legendary King of Lanling with a peerless appearance; the other group believes that he is so ugly that he has no face to see at all and never shows his true face; the third group reconciles everyone's opinions, thinking that he is mediocre and cannot be found if he is thrown into the crowd, after all, he will not be discovered if he takes off his mask and blends it into the crowd.
Over the years, the three factions have not given in to each other, attacked each other, and quarreled fiercely.
Could it be that the answer to all this is about to be revealed? Almost even the residents of Liangcheng who had never heard of the Nether Swordsman began to get excited.
Representatives of these three factions also began to gather and began to bet on his face again.
On the first day of living in Liangzhou, Lu Qian found Bai Qian.
is worthy of being the leader of the martial arts alliance, and the news is quite well-informed.
Bai Qian was happy to have someone arrange a place for him, after all, he and Shang Lu were so poor that they couldn't afford to live in such a good place on their own. They came very late, and all the houses that could live in them had been rented, and even the price of the places for donkeys and horses to live had been raised.
On the way to meet Lu Qian, Shang Lu complained to Bai Qian all the way.
Shang Lu: "Brother Bai, I said that you are no longer the boss, your daughter-in-law has not married, why haven't you saved this money, why have you gone for so many years?"
Bai Qian listened to this sentence and thought about it very seriously, it seems that he really didn't do anything serious except for killing some people on the battlefield a few years ago.
Even he himself is a little puzzled about how he has come over for more than ten years.
When he was a child, Bai Qian lived quite wealthy, and he basically had no concept of money.
His father's price for killing is very high, and basically killing one person is enough for them to spend half a year.
In the rivers and lakes, the killer is actually a serious industry, much richer than the average martial arts person, but the risk is also very high, and it often happens that there is a life to earn and not to spend.
The imperial court often secretly raises a group of dead soldiers to help them do things that they can't do on the surface, anyway, everyone frames each other when they die, and the efficiency of investigating cases is very low, and there are basically few cases that can be solved.
People in the rivers and lakes shout every day that they want to rebel, but except for a few years ago, when they were not used to seeing the emperor of the previous dynasty who liked to use soldiers too seriously, shouting is just shouting casually, just like the mothers-in-law scolding the heavens and the earth, they are addicted to it, and they can't do anything about the world anyway.
The attitude of the imperial court is a little ambiguous, and he has a lot of respect for the rivers and lakes on the surface, but if any person in the rivers and lakes violates his rules, he will not be merciful and kill, anyway, the people in the rivers and lakes are scattered, and few will seriously resist, and the court has seen a lot of things like robbing prisons, and it is rare to succeed.
So many years have passed, and generally speaking, the rivers and lakes and the martial arts are all safe.
This will change the new master in the court, which will have little impact on the martial arts people, and everyone is still more concerned about whether the Nether Swordsman is beautiful or ugly. Later, a new content was added to this concern, betting on whether his sword was specially made or bought casually.
In the blink of an eye, there are only three days left until July 14.
Lu Qian gathered the leaders of various sects together for meetings every day, Bai Qian sat in the corner and concentrated on eating melon seeds, and Shang Lu sat beside him, listening intently to their quarrels.
The main content of the quarrel is how to deal with this Nether Swordsman.
The Wudang faction said that they wanted to maintain a sense of mystery, so they did not attend, but in fact, in order to protect Wudang's personal safety, they had to reluctantly miss this opportunity to listen to everyone praise him in person. A few days ago, some good people went to inquire about Wudang in groups, and the roof of the inn where the people lived collapsed, and several people died.
Although there are many things about dead people on the rivers and lakes, few people like to kill people except killers. After all, although killing someone is very pleasant, killing someone is found to pay for his life, and paying for his life is not very pleasant.
Although the person who fell to his death was determined to be an accident by the local government that arrived quickly, everyone present felt very unlucky, and the Wudang faction immediately decided to move their residence.
The good deeds did not find out the famous hall, and several people died inexplicably. Rumors from the outside world say that they peeked into the face of the Nether Swordsman and were injured by his sword qi before they fell, otherwise how could the roof of the house collapse so easily.
Shang Lu told Bai Qian to confirm this rumor, and Bai Qian said that more than 20 people came that night, and they all stood on the roof, which roof could stand it.
Shang Lu nodded and continued to listen to their argument.
Some people say that if they want to scrape off the flesh on his body piece by piece, he will scrape as many people as he kills. Some people say that it is to be tied to a pillar and all those who have killed their relatives by him will go up and stab them.
Some people say that they should put him alive in a pan of oil and fry him again and again, so that he can know what pain is. It was also said that he should be strung with sandalwood and erected in the field, so that wild dogs and crows could bite him to death.
Others said that they would tie him up and put him on the fire and roast it little by little, and coat it with honey so that the ants could eat it little by little.
......
A group of usually kind-hearted martial arts elders were discussing gossip, and the ten tortures took turns to play, and Bai Qian's heart was beating in horror when he listened.
He glanced at Shang Lu beside him, and always felt that it was not very suitable for a child to listen to these contents. Who knew that Shang Lu was excited, aware of Bai Qian's eyes, he even turned his head and asked Bai Qian what torture was most appropriate.
Bai Qian looked at his face that was red from excitement, and said softly, Nether swordsmen have always used only swords to kill, and the swords are coated with poison that makes people not hurt.
So the people who died in his hands died easily.
Shang Lu: "So Big Brother Bai, what do you think is the most suitable way to die for him?"
Hakuzen: "I didn't think about killing him. ”
