Chapter 12 The difficulty lies in winning or losing
"From now on, Yang Xiuwen, the son of Yang County Commander of Wen County, will be reinstated in Wuyi Mountain, northern Fujian, regardless of success or failure. Xiao Xiao said.
"From now on, hunt down and kill Chen Fucheng, a ruffian in Wenxian County, regardless of success or failure, he will be reinstated in Wuyi Mountain in northern Fujian ten days later. Murong You followed along.
Bai Ling had some doubts in his heart, and he also read for a while: "From now on, hunt down and kill Xuanyuzi of the Kongtong faction, regardless of success or failure, and return to life in Wuyi Mountain in northern Fujian ten days later." ”
"It seems that the chase order I received is similarly written, can you please help me read it?" Shen Qiye said.
"It seems that the person they want you to kill is not far from Xuan Yuzi, Brother Xiao and Miss Murong will go to Wen County first, Shen Qiye and I will go to find Xuan Yuzi, and then go to Wuyi Mountain to make peace." Bai Ling said.
"That's it, we'll see what this Sunless City is going to do in Wuyi Mountain in ten days. Xiao Xiao said.
Murong You asked, "Are we really going to kill people?"
Shen Qiye and Xiao Xiao both smiled and did not answer again.
Three days later, Yang Xiuwen's body was found in the room of a kabuki in Xinghualou, Wen County, with no wounds or signs of poisoning. The county magistrate didn't say anything, but silently took him back to his home.
Five days later, when Chen Fucheng was bullying an unlucky guy, he was suddenly hit on the head by the unlucky guy with a brick, and he never woke up after falling to the ground.
And Xiao Xiao and Murong You are now walking on the streets of Wenxian County, thinking about which Jiangnan snacks taste better.
"So you're saying that we've already finished chasing and killing the people on the warrant, and we're ready to go to northern Fujian?" asked Murong You.
Xiao Xiao looked at Murong You, wanting her to worship him, so he said calmly: "I heard that it took Shen Qiye seven days to kill He Yunsheng, but he could completely kill He Yunsheng's name in one day. I'm not like him, I don't like procrastination. ”
Murong You didn't care, but asked, "But you didn't really kill them, did you?"
Xiao Xiao smiled: "I'm an evil doctor, but I still prefer to treat people rather than kill people." ”
......
Hangzhou, Yunlai Inn, evening.
Shen Qiye and Bai Ling changed into ordinary people's clothes, Xuan Yuzi had seen them, if it was too easy to recognize, things would be much more difficult. The two ordered a few side dishes and a pot of West Lake Longjing in the inn, looking like a couple traveling together.
Bai Ling drank the tea in the cup and said, "Xuan Yuzi has booked a first-class room on the second floor, I'll go up for a while, and you can wait for me here." ”
"If Xuan Yuzi was really on top, would you kill him?" Shen Qiye said with a smile.
"Although this old way makes people look unpleasant, and he betrays his senior brother for personal gain, it really has nothing to do with me, and I don't have the leisure to take his life. Bai Ling said.
Shen Qiye echoed: "I think so too, and we always have a way to make others think that he is dead." “
Bai Ling didn't reply again, and went upstairs by herself.
"This white girl's temperament is really too cold, how can we still be so tepid after knowing her for so long. It's not like that eldest lady, who wants my life at every turn. Shen Qiye muttered to himself.
Although he failed to make a name for himself in Sunless City this time, when Xuan Yuzi thought of returning to the Kongtong faction, even if there were still some objections, he would definitely become the leader, and it was still difficult to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and he drank and enjoyed himself in the room.
He put a slice of beef sauce in his mouth, and was about to pour some wine into the flask and swallow it, but his hand was empty. The cool breeze outside the window blew in, Xuanyuzi shuddered suddenly, and the beef was stuck in his throat.
He tried to cough loudly, but he suddenly held back, and he saw a sword hanging next to his neck, the blade of which seemed to be embedded in the flesh.
"You, you, you ......" Xuan Yuzi's eyes widened like dead fish, and he didn't say a word for a long time.
"Xuan Yuzi, you have to remember that from today onwards, you have died in the Yunlai Inn. Otherwise, you will experience something more painful than death. After Bai Ling finished speaking, the tip of the sword was raised, as if he was going to cut off his head.
Suddenly, the sword in Bai Ling's hand was bounced off, leaving only a bloody mark on Xuan Yuzi's neck.
An old man with white hair and a dark gray robe walked out with a sword and said, "The little girl is young, and her swordsmanship attainments are so high, could it be that she is a disciple of the new generation of the Huashan faction?
"I have nothing to do with the Huashan faction for a long time, who is the senior, I have to save this person?" Bai Ling said.
"The old man is a swordsmith of the Kongtong faction, and I don't know why my junior offended the girl, if the girl says it, I will definitely punish him severely. The old man said.
Seeing this, Xuan Yuzi wailed: "Uncle Shi, just Uncle Shi save me, this woman, this woman is from Sunless City!"
The Lingxu Daoist glared at Xuan Yuzi, no longer paying attention to him, and instead said to Bai Ling: "The old man has not asked about the world for many years, and he doesn't care what the girl's identity is. It's just that since we met today, I must save the juniors of this sect. “
"And I'm going to kill him. Bai Ling said calmly.
The fast sword was out of its sheath, approaching Lingxu's throat, Lingxu seemed to slowly draw his sword to resist, but he always waited to block Bai Ling's sword first!
"Such a sharp swordsmanship, if the old man met you at the age of a girl, I am afraid that he would have become a ghost under your sword. "Lingxu still has the leisure to talk to Bai Ling!
Bai Ling's sword moves are ever-changing, as if attacking Lingxu from all directions, and the sword is as fast as a shadow, enough to make any master lose his mind. But Lingxu still dissolved every sword move she made!
"The girl's swordsmanship attainments, after ten years, there will be no rivals in the rivers and lakes, you will lose to the old decay, just because the sword intent is too impetuous, and the cultivation is not enough. Lingxu has no intention of hurting you, so why don't you let me take Xuanyuzi back and never offend each other from now on?" Lingxu said.
Bai Ling didn't want to hear what he was saying, she had her own opinion on the sword in her hand. It has been more than ten years since she touched the sword, this is the first person she has met who cannot be defeated, she wants to win, she wants to win against this old man in front of her! All the seemingly flawed places on Lingxu's body, Bai Ling will quickly attack there, the sword moves are getting faster and faster, and her breathing is becoming more and more unstable.
At this moment, Lingxu suddenly turned his sword blade and stabbed at Bai Ling. Bai Ling was suddenly in a trance, he was just bent on defeating him, but he didn't guard against his instantaneous killing move! In this trance, the sword was slow, and it was too late to disassemble or hurt people. Bai Ling felt that she was finally going to lose once in her life, and this loss might lose her life.
At this moment, Lingxu's sword fell to the ground, and the four fingers of his right hand were slashed open, and the wound was deep into the bones. And behind him, there was a silver nail inserted in the Dao crown of Xuanyuzi.
"He's only talking to distract you, otherwise he's dead now. Bai Ling's ears sounded Shen Qiye's voice.
Shen Qiye slowly walked towards Xuan Yuzi and pulled out his nail. Xuan Yuzi instantly knelt on the ground, his eyes hollow, and his hair was scattered.
"What you said, old man, is a bit outrageous. It's not difficult for Bai Ling to kill you, it's hard to win you, and you make good use of this to make everything look like a competition. And you can use your so-called cultivation, your experience, to suppress her until she starts to question that she can't win against you, and then kills her. In fact, if Bai Ling wanted to kill you from the beginning, you would never be able to take her first sword. “
Life and death are easy, but it is difficult to win or lose, and it is always much easier to kill a person than to win a person.
