A noodle vendor in Nancheng has his leg broken, resulting in a pair of master and apprentice going to kill a knife man.

Neither the master nor the apprentice knew the peddler, nor did he know his name, his appearance or character, and the peddler had never heard of the master and apprentice, and his request was very simple, he asked for a finger of the swordsman, and what he got was a human head.

The deviation that occurred in the middle was only known to the big cover as a broker, the fact is that the prostitute he had been patronizing had an affair with a handsome swordsman and used his money to raise a little white face, which made the big cover extremely angry, and the handsome swordsman had some background and couldn't afford to offend for the time being, so the big cover turned his anger on another swordsman he didn't know.

The hapless swordsman lives in a small village on the edge of the city, and the area is full of wandering swordsmen who have either killed people to avoid being pursued, or are so poor that they are left with only a precarious life and a notched sword, and want to come to the legendary "land of swords" in search of a chance to soar.

This swordsman named Nie Qing has only been in Biyu City for less than two months, occasionally serving as a temporary bodyguard for wealthy merchants, and has not yet established a strong relationship, with Tie Hanfeng's standards, this is a simple and easy target.

On the day of the move, the last rain of the autumn fell that year, and from the morning until the evening, the temperature plummeted, and the streets were sparsely populated.

A dirty child ran to the South Wall Tavern in the rain, whispered a few words in Tie Hanfeng's ear, took the money and ran away.

Tie Hanfeng picked up his wine glass, "He will be at home all day, don't worry, wait for the rain to stop before going." ”

But the rain didn't stop until noon, Tie Hanfeng sighed, "Damn, I just won't let you do things smoothly, come on, I have to deal with that dog mongrel today." ”

The master and apprentice borrowed robes from the tavern and took two narrow knives from a small room and took them away.

These two narrow knives are impeccable products of Jinpeng Castle, and I don't know which two killers have landed here.

Along the way, Tie Hanfeng first complained about the weather, and then began to describe the good life he had since quit the killer business completely: living in a big mansion in the north city, sleeping in a prostitute in Liuren Alley, drinking wine from the south wall, never touching a knife, maybe having time to give birth to a son or something.

Tie Hanfeng has been particularly interested in the topic of washing hands in the golden basin recently, giving several examples of success and unsuccess, the final fate of the killers of Jinpeng Fort is not all death under the knife, many people can die properly, but only those who prepare early can live a good life, most of the killers are penniless when they lose their titles, they can only live in small houses on both sides of the mountain road, waiting for the meager money given by the stone castle for months, barely surviving, and even dare not come to the city to drink.

Some killers have to return to their old jobs, but they are no longer allowed to act in the name of "Jinpeng Castle Killers", so they have to join the ranks of wandering swordsmen, and maybe die under the knives of a new generation of strange killers.

"I don't want to live like this. Tie Hanfeng swore that he didn't care if the rain hit his face.

There are also successful killers who have saved enough money long before retiring, some have left for other places, and some have bought houses in Beicheng, enjoying the safe environment created by Jinpeng Castle, and spending the rest of their lives without danger.

Gu Shenwei was confused and uneasy by what the master said, if the killer was just such an ordinary profession, wouldn't what he was doing now be farther and farther away from the goal of revenge?

In the past two days, he has been a little restless, for fear that he will get used to the master's preaching and arrangement, and in the future, he will go to the end of the path of the killer, and finally die in Beicheng, what top killer, what revenge, are forgotten.

When there were still two streets away from the swordsman Nie Qing's house, Tie Hanfeng closed his mouth and stopped being wordy, looked back and forth, held the handle of the knife, and instantly changed from an old man whose ambition had been worn out to a ruthless and cold-blooded killer.

The cooperation of the two killers did not require too many words, Tie Hanfeng walked in front, and Gu Shenwei followed ten steps away, stepping on the cold muddy ground, turning two corners, and coming to the door of a small courtyard.

The small courtyard was extremely simple, the courtyard wall was low, Tie Hanfeng jumped in directly, Gu Shenwei glanced back and forth, and also jumped in.

The water in the courtyard had accumulated into a pond, and Tie Hanfeng stood at the door of the house and listened for a while, then pushed the door in.

The two men in the room looked in amazement at the stranger who had trespassed.

"Who are you, and how did you get in?" a woman in her thirties, putting down the dough she was kneading, asked in a stiff tone, suddenly as if she understood something, and added, "He's not here, he's out drinking." Then continue to knead the dough with his head down.

Gu Shenwei stood at the door, monitoring the outside, his gaze only lingering on the teenage boy for a moment.

The young man was thin and dark, as if he had practiced martial arts, and stood in front of his mother, not saying a word.

Tie Hanfeng glanced at the inner room and complained, "That stinky boy, you gave me inaccurate information again." ”

The woman threw down the dough and pushed her son away, "You can solve the man's affairs by yourself, our mother and son can't take care of it, and we don't want to take care of it." ”

Tie Hanfeng nodded, didn't answer the woman's words, but asked the young man behind her, "How old are you?"

"XIV. The boy replied coldly.

"Fourteen, even a man, it's time to know how to avenge his father. ”

The woman's face changed, the young man didn't know that a catastrophe was coming, so he grabbed ahead of his mother and said proudly: "You can't beat my father, if anyone kills him, I will be ......"

"Shut up!" the woman shouted, "Your father is a swordsman who works hard for others, and he deserves to die, so what revenge do you have?"

The young man blushed, "I'm also a swordsman, and I want revenge." ”

"Bring your knife. Tie Hanfeng ordered.

The boy turned and ran towards the back room, Tie Hanfeng jumped over and punched the boy in the back of the neck, and the boy fell to the ground and stopped moving.

The woman grabbed the kitchen knife and screamed and rushed at the killer.

Tie Hanfeng casually knocked out the kitchen knife in the woman's hand, grabbed her neck, and covered her mouth, "Solve this kid, Master is going to solve other problems." ”

The expression on Tie Hanfeng's face was familiar to Gu Shenwei, but at this time, it looked uglier than ever, "Is this necessary?"

The apprentice's questioning surprised the master, "Of course it's necessary, this can save me dozens of taels of silver, you know how expensive those bitches are." Besides, this woman is going to die, so wouldn't it be wasted if you don't need to?"

"I thought we were just killers. "Gu Shenwei can accept the corpse full of holes, but it is difficult to approve of Master's current actions.

"cnmd, I want to pretend to be a good person again, put away your face, if someone disturbs my good deeds, or if the boy on the ground is still alive when I come out, you don't have to mess with me, I will let you know what happens to good people. ”

Tie Hanfeng dragged the woman into the back room, and soon there were tearing, crying, and wheezing sounds from inside.

The boy who fainted on the ground suddenly woke up, wiped the blood from the wound on his forehead, called "Mother", rushed to the back room, only took one step and was knocked down again, and when he looked up, there was a young man in a cloak standing in front of him, holding a narrow knife out of the sheath in his hand, and the tip of the knife was aimed at his heart.

Gu Shenwei focused all his attention on the tip of the knife and warned himself: there is no way to help him, even if you let him escape, the iron cripple will also capture him and kill him, the only thing you can do now is to make him suffer less.

The boy jumped up and was knocked down again, the little martial arts he learned from his father was not worth mentioning in front of the killer.

The young man listened to the voice coming from the back room, sat on the ground, raised his head, and pointed his neck at the tip of the knife, "Kill me, my aunt will avenge us." ”

Gu Shenwei glanced at him and stabbed the knife in.

Tie Hanfeng came out of the back room, not wearing a robe, grabbed the rag on the panel to wipe the blood from his hands, sat on the stove, and glanced at the corpse on the ground, "Wait a minute, that knife man will always go home." ”

Gu Shenwei stood on the edge of the door, hummed, and his eyes fell on the pile of dough.

The rain outside the house was silent, and the house was silent.

"Man is a mass of flesh and blood. Tie Hanfeng suddenly spoke, and taught his apprentice as usual, "It's no different from cats, dogs, pigs and sheep, if the knife goes in, people will die, men will die, women and children will die, you will die, I will also die, people come to the world to kill each other." ”

Gu Shenwei still didn't squeak, he would never argue with this cripple before he was sure to beat the master, in his mind, there was another way for people to live, that was the life he once had but was taken away by Jinpeng Fort overnight, and he would never regard his dead relatives as just a lump of flesh and blood, and lose his love for his relatives, all his current efforts would be meaningless, and the suffering and shame he suffered would be beyond the limit of what he could bear.

Tie Hanfeng stared at the apprentice, his cheeks twitched slightly, because of the rainy and corrupted mood, it was not easy to get better, and he was disturbed by this kid again, "I have a way to clean you up." ”

Master's knives and fists, Gu Shenwei had already learned many times, so he didn't care.

It gets dark early, the rain has stopped, and the outside is as silent as the inside, and the two killers wait for their targets to fall into the net.

Someone pushed open the courtyard door and crashed in, stepping on the stagnant water to make a lot of noise, like a bear breaking in, and shouting, "Lady, come out to pick up the driver! Lao Tzu is back, don't pretend to be dead." Stinky boy, where did you go, it's better to raise a dog than to raise you, the dog still knows how to greet the owner......"

The knife man Nie Qing pushed open the door drunk, stood at the door staggeringly, frowning to adapt to the dim scene, first saw the strange old man sitting on the stove, and couldn't help but be angry, and then saw the corpse on the ground, suddenly understood, roared, and went to pull out the waist knife.

The waist knife is only half pulled out, and a narrow knife pierces through the back waist, penetrating the five organs, and the tip of the knife can be seen when you look down.

The swordsman Nie Qing opened his mouth, his mind was confused, his body leaned back, his hands bent behind his back, trying in vain to grab the weapon that penetrated his body.

Gu Shenwei pulled out the narrow knife, the corpse fell forward, Tie Hanfeng jumped over, grabbed the hair, pulled out the knife and cut the head, almost did not affect the process of the corpse falling.

Tie Hanfeng put away the knife, took out a piece of black cloth, wrapped the head, and threw it to the apprentice.

The master and apprentice silently glanced at the gate of the courtyard, and left quickly while no one was paying attention.

Halfway through, the head was handed over to a sneaky young man, and the mission was over.

The two returned to Xu Yanwei's small building, Xu Xiaoyi opened the door, and saw that their faces were not good, and they didn't dare to greet them with a smile like before.

"Where's your sister?" Tie Hanfeng asked.

"Upstairs. ”

"Are there any guests?"

"Not now, I'll have it later. ”

"Okay, bring my apprentice up and let her teach him how to be a man. ”

This is how Tie Hanfeng came up with to "clean up" his apprentices.
