Chapter 37: Murder
For a person like Liu Tong who has been rolling in the Kunwu Sect for a hundred years, he has seen a lot of right and wrong, ups and downs, and has already polished his mind like a magnet without edges and corners. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"If you don't move, you don't have to do it, you don't have to fight. The Lord shall not be angry and will not be discouraged and cause war. Move in line with the profit, and stop at the point of not the benefit. Anger can be restored, sorrow can be restored, the dead country cannot be restored, and the dead cannot be resurrected. ”
Since he saw this sentence in the book a long time ago, Liu Tong thought it was true, and he basically strictly followed this sentence to restrain his words and deeds, and everything was based on the word first, and for a monk like him, who was already more than a hundred years old, the threshold of two hundred years of life was by no means so easy to cross, and in the last few decades, the only thing he cared about was the future of his own worldly descendants.
Stepping on Zhao Xu's ship a long time ago, Liu Tong did not regret it, but when he turned his head and thought about it, what he gained was actually far more than what he lost, and he was soon relieved, this time may be the last "private job" he can do for Zhao Xu, compared to the previous petty fight, this time there are many more dangers, but once it is done, the rewards that can be obtained from Zhao Xu will definitely be beyond imagination.
The relationship between Zhao Li and Zhao Xu may not be clear to others, but for Liu Tong, who used to help take care of Zhao Li in the shadows, he understood very well the importance of Zhao Li to the high-ranking disciple.
After doing this time, he may take one step or even two steps in his current position, and he may die suddenly and "normally" in a short time, which are also Zhao Xu's two means of erasing traces and threats, but no matter which one he wants, the thing he hopes most will be completed by Zhao Xu.
Fortunately, he is still in the shadows, and no one knows the one-line connection between him and Zhao Xu, if these things can be concealed all the time, it will undoubtedly be the best result.
"Yu'er, I'm a person who won't live long, and everything in the future will depend on you. ”
Thinking of his grandson who was hidden in the world, a faint smile rarely appeared on Liu Tong's expressionless face.
However, in just a moment, Liu Tong forcibly suppressed this smile, and still maintained an expression that did not change.
"Alas......" Liu Tong let out a long sigh and looked at Tang Qi and Zhu Shanhedao: "You guys are really bold, and you don't want to think about how you people passed the first level of cultivation at the beginning, at that time, almost all the teachings were on the sidelines, and now you dare to mess around with just the two of you, or do you think that you can already take on the position of teaching in the valley?"
Liu Tong's words are not insignificant, although his original intention was to deduct the hat first and put aside the responsibility first, but in the ears of others, it is not so simple.
Tang Qi and Zhu Shanhe listened to Liu Tong's words, and immediately turned pale, cold sweat trickled down, although it was Bai Qing's intention for Ishikawa to step into the first level of cultivation and be presided over by the two of them, although it was not uncommon for other disciples to preside over the first level of cultivation in the past, and there were no problems, but if something unforeseen went wrong, who would carry this pot?
Tang Qi gave Liu Tong a deep salute and said astringently: "I also hope that the chief teacher Xi can help Ishikawa get out of danger!"
Liu Tong hesitated for a moment, then changed his mild tone and asked: "Forget it, I also know that there are no instructions for other teachings, you two do not have the right to do so, and it is not that there is no precedent for other disciples to preside over the first level of cultivation in the past, let alone when something goes wrong at this level, but now that Ishikawa's situation you have also seen, such a thing really happened to him, it is useless to say anything at the moment, it is better to see how to solve this problem." ”
"Zhu Shanhe, did you rush out just now to find Bai Qing to teach?"
Zhu Shanhe nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Liu Tongen sighed, "Then you go to Bai Jiaoxi, I'll see how to solve it here." ”
Zhu Shanhe answered, and immediately turned around and ran away.
Liu Tong didn't even glance at Zhu Shanhe, who disappeared outside the door, and silently fell into deep thought at the medicine tripod in front of him.
Hundreds of feet away from the small courtyard where Ishikawa lived, Lin Sha was sitting in a pavilion, his eyes half-open and half-closed, the long sword on his back was horizontally in front of him at this time, and several slender but powerful fingers were gently tapping the scabbard at a specific frequency.
A breeze hit, with a faint fragrance into Lin Sha's nose, he didn't raise his head, still half-closed eyes and said coldly: "What are you doing here?"
Zhu Yan's tall and slender figure sat elegantly opposite Lin Sha, straightened the messy hair scattered next to his ears and temples, and chuckled, "You seem to be very interested in the registered disciple who just came." ”
Lin Xu was silent for a long time, and suddenly sneered: "You are too much. ”
Zhu Yan was noncommittal, accompanied Lin Sha silently for a while, and asked abruptly, "How long has it started?"
Lin Xu said: "Less than an hour. ”
Zhu Yan frowned slightly, and after a long while, he sighed and said, "An hour!? Sometimes I really need to admire your vision and be able to find something special from places that no one has paid attention to." ”
Lin Sha rarely answered Zhu Yan's question directly this time: "It's not that I have a special vision, but that this person feels special to me." ”
"So, are you going to use him to test the sword? I heard that this guy has something to do with Bai Jiaoxi and Wu Zongxi, and just now Liu Zongxi also entered, for such a character, even if you Lin Sha, if you hurt him, it won't be easy to end it." ”
Lin Xu shook his head and said, "Observe and observe first." ”
.................................................................................
Ishikawa was still drinking blood and eating meat, until he ate only half of the huge black snake left, then he raised his head blankly, wiped the blood stains on his lips, and burped back to his senses.
After seeing the miserable appearance of the black snake in front of him, Ishikawa was stunned again, and the first thought that flashed in his heart was, could it be that this was all eaten by me?
Immediately afterwards, Ishikawa tore off another small piece of flesh from the black snake's bloody wound, brought it to his mouth, and chewed it carefully.
From birth to the present, it was the first time that Ishikawa, who had been a human in two lifetimes, had eaten raw meat and drank raw blood, but he did not feel sick or uncomfortable, on the contrary, after swallowing the snake meat in his mouth, he couldn't help but pull another piece and put it to his mouth.
"This delicious taste is simply amazing!"
"Unfortunately, I don't have any spices at hand, let alone pots and pans, if I can cook it and pair it with half a pound of soju, I doubt I will swallow my tongue." ”
