Chapter 178: Convergence
Gu Shen made a false alarm, Shangguan Fei became smarter, he didn't immediately expose Huan Nu's mask, and looked away from Huan Nu, "Even your swordsmen have ulterior motives, that Tuo Nengya wants to kill me." ”
Shangguan Ru didn't seem to hear his brother's words, and stood still in despair.
Shangguan Fei also closed his mouth and listened attentively, and soon the battle outside was over, the door opened, and a young killer knelt down on one leg at the door, "Tell the ninth young master, a total of sixteen levels of beheading, seven people escaped, and they are being hunted down." ”
There was a small insect hidden in the delicious and juicy fruit of victory, Shangguan Fei's face sank, and he pulled out his narrow knife, "What about Tuo Neng Tooth?"
"Escape...... Escaped. ”
Tuo Nengya is an experienced veteran swordsman, as soon as he saw the black-robed killer, he knew that the situation was wrong, and secretly arranged the formation to deal with the unexpected, but the strength of the killers was still far beyond the swordsman, after the first attack, the formation no longer existed, but it bought precious time, six swordsmen protected the Tuo boss and fled into the nearby street and alley maze, they knew the south city well, not the young killers can compare.
The knife fell, the left palm of the young killer fell to the ground, Shangguan Fei raised his head, and coldly ordered, "Before dark, I want to see the head of Tuo Nengya, or I will use your head to fill the number." ”
"Yes. The teenage killer reluctantly retreated.
Shangguan Fei's good mood has been ruined, his sister has become a walking corpse-like figure, and it is no fun to torture it any longer, "Take the tenth prince to Beicheng, if she has a little mistake, you can cut off your head and apologize." ”
Shangguan Ru's seven killers knelt down on one leg together, respectfully accepted the order of the Nine Young Masters, and then got up, and Shangguan Ru was supported by the lotus girl, and the other two killers carried the body of Yu Gongzi and retreated like lost dogs.
This is the grief of the Ten Princes, and it is also the fiasco of the young killers.
When Gu Shenwei passed by Shangguan Fei's side, the two glanced at each other, and understood each other's thoughts, Huan Nu's handle fell into the hands of the Nine Young Masters, and he couldn't have two hearts from now on, which was the only reason why Shangguan Fei didn't betray him on the spot.
Gu Shenwei couldn't remember how many masters he had sworn to, not a single one of them was sincere, he firmly remembered the words that Mr. Zhang Ji taught him: slaves are always the most ideal betrayers.
Shangguan Fei's idea that he knew the slave was just a fantasy generated by the frustration of the child's brother.
The black-robed killers also withdrew, Shangguan Fei was full of pride, and stayed in the room alone to savor the victory in hand, he raised his head and saw the girl standing upstairs, the girl had a pair of fawn-like childish panicked and pitiful eyes, and her body trembled slightly under his gaze, as if she could not withstand the intimidating power of this gaze.
Xu Yanwei heard all the words upstairs, the cruelty and ruthlessness of the teenager had an inexplicable attraction to her, he was younger than her brother, what was this?
Xu Yanwei beckoned slightly, Shangguan Fei was half dazed and half excited, hesitated for a while and walked upstairs, Xu Xiaoyi jumped past the ninth young master like a rabbit, and escaped from the small building without stopping.
The multi-day war that resulted in the loss of hundreds of lives ended in an unexpected way.
Shangguan Ru, the tenth prince, was in a state of collapse, and because of the kidnapping activities in Beicheng, he attracted the direct intervention of Shibao, and was actually placed under house arrest in his residence in Beicheng.
Meng Mingshi lost money, swordsmen and beloved, and finally had to "thank" the nine young masters of Jinpeng Castle for saving his life, but he was also in a slump, seriously ill, and did not leave the house again for several months.
The obscure Nine Young Masters suddenly became the big winner, the Kun Society was wiped out, leaving only an empty shelf, Shangguan Fei retained this name to control the territory and merchants that the Kun Society originally occupied, and the Qiu Society also threw himself into the same master, until this time, the vast majority of people knew for the first time that Shangguan Fei was originally one of the founders of the Qiu Society.
From then on, Shangguan Fei used the Qiu Society to attract the rich children of the northern city, and the Kunshe recruited the large and small covers and merchants in the southern city, and the killers and swordsmen were firmly in their own hands, and soon became a force to be reckoned with in Biyu City, exceeding the expectations of Dubu Wang and Mrs. Meng, and also attracted the attention of several elder brothers.
The victory was so perfect, but there was a flaw, the old swordsman Tuo Nengya was missing, he was like a piece of mud, he fell into the southern city and merged with it, never to show his true face again.
Shangguan Fei killed a killer with his own hands, but it was still useless, and the six swordsmen who fled with Tuo Nengya were all arrested, and only the person he wanted the most was missing, for this reason, Shangguan Fei was furious and did not dare to go to Nancheng for a long time.
What no one understands is that there are not only two social owners who were defeated in the hands of Shangguan Fei, but also a young killer, Gu Shen's efforts to establish an independent force came to naught, not only did Tie Hanfeng's legacy consume most of it, but he also became a pawn in the hands of the Nine Young Masters.
His only achievement was that his swordsmanship had improved, but the sword was broken into several pieces, and in order to hide his eyes, he had to insert half of the sword into the sheath and pretend.
The people of the Shangguan family always surprised him, and Gu Shenwei reflected calmly, because he had already paid the price many times for underestimating the enemy.
The only thing that was reliable was the sword in his hand, and only it never disappointed him.
Shangguan Ru never seemed to be going to be the same again, she hid alone in her room, with no one to see, occasionally regaining a little energy, summoning her seven killers, and talking about regrouping, but she couldn't come up with a detailed plan.
Taking advantage of Shangguan's enthusiasm, Gu Shen asked to return to Nancheng to investigate the situation, and obtained permission, and he took the lotus girl away.
Shangguan Ru was absent-minded, but Mustang and the others understood that Huan Nu and the Lotus Girl were abandoning the Ten Princes, and their actions were tantamount to betrayal.
In fact, Gu Shenwei had already secretly visited Shangguan Fei again, so that the other party believed in his loyalty, Shangguan Ru may have a chance to make a comeback, but Gu Shenwei didn't want to bet all his capital on one person.
Jinpeng Fort is a fortress of betrayal, every stone is engraved with the mark of betrayal, Gu Shenwei does not feel guilty at all about his actions, the Shangguan family has set the loyalty of the killer as a dead rule, precisely because loyalty is an extremely rare quality.
If you can't get the loyalty of the heart, you will forcibly take the loyalty of the first, which is the consistent principle of Jinpeng Castle.
Gu Shenwei returned to Nancheng with the Lotus Girl, the first thing he did was to go to the blacksmith village to reforge the broken sword, and then rented two houses in the backyard of the South Wall Tavern, although the shopkeeper Lu also threw himself into Shangguan Fei like everyone else, but he did not dare to slack off the two young killers at all, he had already made up his mind that he would never participate in the battle between the killers again.
The Xu family siblings are the only brothel in Nancheng that has not fallen to any of the forces, and the two still rely on Yang Huan's protection, which has been tacitly approved by Shangguan Fei.
Five days later, the new sword built overnight was sent back, and Xu Xiaoyi also brought back the information that Brother Huan wanted.
Gu Shenwei didn't come to Nancheng to revive the Kun Society, nor did he serve the Nine Young Masters and Ten Princes, he had another purpose.
The war between the two societies is over, but there are several doubts left, others have been left behind, Gu Shenwei still remembers it, the assassin who assassinated Ye Shilang in Rouge Forest has not yet been exposed, and the reminder conveyed by Peng Xianren through Xu Xiaoyi is also inexplicable.
Ye Shilang and Chu Yang Jun were both apprentices of Peng Xianren, but they did not receive any help from their master.
Judging from the news that Xu Xiaoyi heard, Peng Xianren is a very eccentric character, everyone in Nancheng knows his name, but no one can say his exact situation, everything is contradictory, there are seven or eight versions of age alone, ranging from two hundred to sixty years old.
He seems to have been born with Wangcheng Lane, and he has never left that place since he landed, and some people say that Peng Xianren is a foreigner who came to Biyu City to create Wangcheng Lane.
Peng Xianren's profession is fortune telling, but he rarely shows up in person, proudly raised a lot of strange characters, every day a few people get the immortal point, suddenly have the ability to calculate the past and know the future, climb the third floor for the guests who come in line to tell fortunes, the words they say do not belong to themselves, are the mouthpieces of Peng Xianren, a day passes, the ability disappears, and the next day another group of people go upstairs.
Few people knew that Peng Xianren knew martial arts, let alone that he was the master of Ye Shilang and Chu Yangjun, Gu Shenwei also had doubts, he might have guessed wrong, and there might be someone else who taught the two swordsmen martial arts.
Xu Xiaoyi has gone upstairs and has never seen the true face of Peng Xianren, but like others, he is in awe of that fortune-telling experience, "He is a living immortal, he knows everything, and he can even calculate the things you almost forgot." ”
"Yes, what did he say about my past?" Gu Shenwei didn't believe in these things, if Peng Xianren could know the true identity of Huan Nu, he would admire it.
"Well, Immortal Peng didn't count your past, he counted my past and your future. ”
"He figured out I could kill two swordsmen?"
"The immortal will not say so clearly, what the immortal said is 'you will lose if you compete with a sword, and you will win if you kill someone', and he also said, 'Ruthlessness is better than affection, because affection is easy to learn and difficult to reach the top, ruthless...... How, how'. ”
After a while, Xu Xiaoyi couldn't remember what he had said, "But he counted my past accurately, saying that I was born to kill my elders......"
Gu Shenwei sent Xu Xiaoyi away, and discussed with the lotus girl about this Peng Xianren who appeared halfway.
"Could the assassin in the Rouge Forest be this Peng Immortal? He doesn't seem to care much about the lives of his apprentices, and he still hopes that I will kill them. ”
Gu Shenwei first made a guess, now that swordsmanship was his most trustworthy means of revenge, he had to know the details of another swordsman.
"I think he's looking forward to you going to him. ”
The lotus girl obviously felt that something was wrong, and Huan Nu would face another trap.
Gu Shenwei could completely ignore Peng Xianren, it was impossible to kill all the enemies with his current swordsmanship, but there was great hope for secretly destroying a few key enemies.
Peng Xianren did not interfere with the young man's revenge, so the fortune teller who deceived the Xuan Xuan may have just used the Kunqiu War to achieve his own goals, and as soon as the two apprentices died, the matter was over.
Gu Shenwei didn't need to ask for trouble at all, that night, when he put on a black dress and covered his face, and went to Wangcheng Lane, this thought turned all the way.
