94. If you trust your selfish desires all your life, you can't escape the void!
I often hear people lament that they don't get the rewards they think they deserve for being kind, but do they understand that kindness and plunder do not coexist?
Therefore, the world's evaluation of good and evil is often based on the premise of giving and enjoying. And the result should be that the former should surpass the latter, which is obviously a very stupid paradox, but unfortunately this is also a reality that cannot be changed!
But that's okay. Because there must be unequal values in this world. The difference in the value of gold ingots and copper coins naturally leads to the income of goldsmiths and coppersmiths. And those who exchange gold for the same amount of copper will not be called good, but will only think they are stupid!
The world is complex, but at the same time simple, and so is the human heart. So instead of dwelling on the so-called "one truth", it is indeed wiser to go with the flow!
Xue Tianbao sat in Yixia Villa, and Banqin, Xianzhen, Yang Chen and others quietly left. No one knew where they were going beforehand, and no one would ask. And along the way, no matter what people think in their hearts, everyone is no different on the surface!
Perhaps the only difference is ignored by most people, that is, there is another Huaishan Society in addition to Banqin and Xianzhen, who often conspire, but no one seems to care much about it!
"According to your explanation, our people have been spread all over this town, as long as you give an order, none of the pioneers of the Demon Palace here will be spared!"
Banqin smiled and looked at Huaishan: "You are very efficient, at least you are much better than the people in the Central Plains Martial Arts!"
Huaishan lowered his eyelids indifferently: "But you should also know that if you can't eliminate Yu Fangsheng, we can also join forces with him at any time!"
"Then who do you think you can control between me and Yu Fangsheng?"
"Hmph, Banqin, you are too conceited! I'm not afraid to tell you now, if we are not sure, how can we be enemies with you and Yu Fangsheng at the same time?"
With a sneer, Banqin looked at him contemptuously: "You seem to have forgotten one thing, no matter how powerful you are, and how you think of me." For each of us, we are only able to work together because we are more inclined to be friends from afar. And in front of me, at least you can only be punished by killing!"
Huaishan couldn't help but tremble when he heard this! Xianzhen smiled slightly: "Don't worry, at least for now, we are still the same enemy, and we will not do things that harm others and benefit ourselves! So I also hope that you can treat you clearly and don't think too much." ”
Huaishan looked at him disdainfully: "If you don't have him, what qualifications do you have to say such things to me?"
Hyunjeong smiled indifferently, "Indeed! But if you think that Hanqin will take advantage of people for nothing, you must be too happy too soon! And I think you should understand that you can talk to me because of the huge power behind you." And I can say that to you, indeed, because we have a half-piano, what can you do?"
Huaishan frowned slightly, and Banqin said indifferently: "Okay! Is it useful to still fight at this time? I will talk about it later, and it is more important to solve the current crisis first......
Since Banqin and others passed by, Golden Town has gradually regained its former wealth. However, it only relies on the metallurgical industry, so although there are business trips from time to time, it is also in the peak trade season, and it is not extremely prosperous in normal times!
Banqin and the others temporarily lived in the inn back then, and at this time, the old couple had already enjoyed their old age and handed over the business to an honest young man.
The news is still passing on from time to time, although the progress of the people sent is slow, but it is still smooth, and the Righteous Hero Villa has indeed been subjected to several painless tentative sneak attacks!
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and Banqin estimated the time to lead everyone into the dense forest near the avenue. Looking at Kenshin's eagerness, Banqin chuckled.
"Kenshin, would you like to give it a try?"
Jian Xin nodded again and again after hearing this: "Of course! To be honest, although I lost Yu Mohan's move at the beginning, I have been practicing hard for the past few years, and I really want to compete with him again!"
"Okay, then let you take the lead this time, even if it wasn't Yu Mohan coming in person, it must not be an ordinary person......
Seeing Kenshin's excited face, Xianzhen and Huaishan couldn't help but be surprised! But they immediately understood what Banqin meant, because Huaishan would never watch Kenshin get into danger!
glared at Banqin fiercely, although Huaishan was angry in his heart, he couldn't help but secretly fear that this person would have such treacherous intentions! According to the previous assumption, although Banqin was smart, there was no lack of solitude and pride in Nai Shi Xuexi. And this is exactly where he and Yu Fangsheng can be used to die together.
But at this time, Banqin actually wanted to use the sword heart to force Huaishan to work obediently, and he couldn't help but change his opinion of him!
Everyone hid in the shadows, and saw several figures flashing quickly, thinking that it was the outpost of the Demon Palace, so they deliberately let it go.
It wasn't until nearly midnight that a pair of business-travelers-like crowds could finally be seen approaching in the distance. There were about thirty people, all of them with big hats and low brims, and their robes were wrapped in wide robes, obviously deliberately concealing their identities! But even so, Banqin still felt a familiar aura emanating from it, and Huaishan and Kenshin gradually noticed it!
After all, Hanqin had already encountered demons who had always been subject to the Demon Palace more than once, and he knew that those sane people were cruel and terrible! It was not his intention to let Kenshin take risks, but there was no better way! At least for now, he knew too little about his real enemies, so he had to do everything possible to lure them into revealing the truth.
Seeing Jian Xin rushing out with his sword, although Huaishan was unwilling, he had no choice but to raise his Zen staff and follow.
was suddenly attacked in the middle of the night, and when he thought it was foolproof, the people in the demon palace were indeed caught off guard. However, even Banqin was unexpected, Kenshin and Huaishan succeeded in the surprise attack in just an instant, and then they were forced to stumble by an opponent who was wheezing heavily!
And when that person's big hat fell and his wide robe was wide open, it turned out to be Yu Mohan, who had already stimulated the primitive beast nature!
Banqin didn't expect Yu Mohan to have this day sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon. In fact, after Yu Fangsheng returned to the Demon Palace with his wife and children, the biggest worry in his heart was Yu Mohan!
But after all, he was raised by himself and an outstanding disciple who had been cultivated with great difficulty, and the loss of a Yin Yaoji had already made Yu Mohan feel very sorry! And Yu Mohan could have done more for himself, but although he would not pose a threat to himself, he would become the biggest danger to his son.
And how could Yu Mohan not understand his situation? But his unusually cautious and steady attitude aroused Yu Fangsheng's suspicions even more.
The three-sided deployment was originally intended to distract Banqin's energy and the strength of the Central Plains martial arts. And the Righteous Heroes Villa should have limited defense, which has also been confirmed by several temptations.
Therefore, Yu Fangsheng expected that Dingbanqin was already a good woman who could not cook without rice. Even if he had another plan, he would definitely have more than enough heart and not enough power! Therefore, Yu Fangsheng pretended to reuse Yu Mohan. Although the latter was on guard, he did not expect that Yu Fangsheng lied about teaching him the strongest martial arts in his own sect, but the purpose was to stimulate his potential blood poison and control him to practice secret martial arts with drugs. And promised that as long as he could kill Banqin, he would give him an antidote.
Yu Mohan regretted it too late, so he had to obediently comply. Originally, he thought that Yu Fangsheng threatened him with the antidote, always proving that he still had something to use, but he didn't expect that Yu Fangsheng was deliberately sacrificing him to get rid of Banqin.
Today's Yu Mohan, except for his deeper skills, is not much different from the demons he saw before. Seeing that the two of them were left with only the ability to parry, Banqin had no choice but to lead everyone to besiege them. But he deliberately avoided Yu Mohan, Huaishan was very secretly angry in his heart, but he had no choice but to send a signal, and soon saw a large number of black-clothed people rushing out of the surrounding dense forest.
Together, Huaishan and Kenshin also got a temporary respite. But although those black-clothed people are not weak in martial arts, they are still powerless in Yu Mohan's hands.
Both sides are playing in a way that avoids the important and takes the light of the matter, and there is no great progress in eliminating the other's strengths! But gradually everyone began to notice that the opponent seemed to be suddenly weak and weak, and at the same time, those men in black had been killed by Yu Mohan and there was not much left!
Although Huaishan did not relax in his hands, he gradually felt remorse in his heart! He thought that if he let Banqin and his opponent fight for both sides, he would be able to reap the benefits. Therefore, he has been following the orders of others, and arranged for his subordinates to arrange poisonous barriers on the surrounding forest roads, and people passing by will not notice it for a short time, but once they fight with people, it will accelerate the poison attack.
But first of all, he didn't expect Banqin to actually put Jian Xin in danger, let alone that Yu Mohan would be so powerful! Seeing the situation, Yu Mohan and the others in the Demon Palace were certainly turtles in the urn, but his hundreds of subordinates would definitely not be spared!
I secretly hated that I was still put on a side by the half-piano after all, but now I can only adapt to the status quo!
Although Banqin took advantage of Huaishan, he would never let Jian Xin die! Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Banqin immediately swung his sword and rushed towards Yu Mohan.
In terms of his own martial arts, Banqin will not be afraid of his opponent at this time. It's just that Yu Mohan, who has been completely poisoned, is not afraid of the blade, and will only blindly kill the enemy. And if you are slightly injured by him, your life will be at risk!
Although he had already taken precautions, the strength of his opponent still surprised Banqin! Especially since he had not only been in danger once, this time he couldn't help but have a subconscious terrifying memory. But he still reluctantly calmed himself, after all, once Yu Mohan activated the blood poison, he was only left to wait for death. As long as you wait patiently for him to wear out, you can win naturally!
Gradually, the melee became a crowd of onlookers watching the two fight, and no one could join the battle group at all. Although Banqin avoided the ferocious attack of Yu Mohan with his light skills and skillful skills, it was still shocking!
Now Banqin has left several wounds on Yu Mohan's body, although the blood flow is slow, but the stench emitted is dizzying. Half the piano has always avoided the heavy and light, and suffered its own damage. But he gradually realized that things might not be as simple as he thought! Because after a long time, he found that Yu Mohan's blood qi could actually cause blood poison in his body. If I continue to consume it, I'm afraid that I will be dead on the ground tonight.
As soon as he thought of this, Banqin secretly gritted his teeth and made a killing move. It is still difficult for others to understand, and Huaishan can't help but secretly admire Banqin's shrewdness when he watches the battle from the sidelines!
Because of his own early resolution of blood poison, like others, it was difficult to endure the taste of Yu Mohan's poisonous blood. But although the half-piano started without hindrance, it was inevitable to be infected after a long time. But if he is in a hurry to win, he will inevitably be injured by his opponent. And although he knows that he can't spend too long, he can counterattack with the enemy's moves in a timely manner, and replace defense with offense.
Although Yu Mohan was powerful, he had already bled a lot after a long battle, and his body was gradually unable to resist the power of the blade. Although he roared again and again, he was obviously slow to act.
In the dark, only a soft drink from Banqin was heard, and the whole person was instantly shrouded in a blood mist. It turned out that Yu Mohan gradually regained some sanity due to the passage of blood and qi. And his villain remembered that he had been mistakenly in the hands of the enemy at this time all his life, and when he was determined to die with him, he bit his tongue and committed suicide while spewing poisonous blood into Banqin.
Banqin was frightened and stabbed the flying sword into his mouth, but although he withdrew in time, he was still stained with blood. Feeling a swelling pain in his heart, Banqin couldn't speak, and immediately ran away in the distance in any direction.
Everyone was stunned, and it was too late to catch up. Seeing the corpses everywhere, the night breeze blowing, and the bursts of blood shrouded the present, although everyone was no longer in danger, they shuddered even more!
Thinking of what crisis Banqin might have encountered, Huaishan was quite excited. But he didn't want to be seen by others, so he immediately shouted: "Go and kill the Demon Palace spies who passed before......
Everyone didn't have time to think about it for a while, but they only felt that there should be no danger in cultivating the half-qin, so they naturally followed Huaishan to do the most important task that should be completed at present.
On the contrary, Banqin ran aimlessly through the deep mountains and jungles, only focusing on staying away from others, and at the same time relying on the consumption of power to stop the poison. It wasn't until he felt that his breath was getting heavier and his physical strength was exhausted, so he slowly stopped, and immediately sat cross-legged on the ground to exercise pranayama!
But the power of the blood poison was still beyond his expectations, and even if he consumed most of his strength, he still couldn't restrain it quickly. On the contrary, due to the lack of their own skills, the blood poison operation became more violent.
Feeling the world spinning for a while, Banqin suddenly felt a sense of melancholy in his heart! Could it be that he could only die here? But if he didn't want to involve others, he didn't seem to have any other choice but to commit suicide immediately.
What's so terrible about death? What's there to care about? It's just that I exposed my body in the barren mountains and mountains like this, and I will never see the only attachment in my heart again. Moreover, even if she wants to die herself, it is so that she can live well. If you want to meet again in Jiuquan one day, what is the meaning of everything you have done in this life?
For the first time, Banqin actually had the will to survive in his heart! He was not afraid of death, but he was unwilling to end it before something was done.
Holding the sword body with both hands, Banqin gritted his teeth and clenched it, feeling the rapid loss of blood qi, and at the same time guiding the true qi in his body to pour out.
Under the moonlight, Banqin felt that she was gradually weakening, and her head began to be groggy, and she couldn't tell if she was really illusory.
The touch of holy warmth in the haze, like a dream, like the world of Sumeru!
Was, now, and in the future, how did it begin, how did it end, why did it exist, and where did it go?
The past is like a dream, and the future life will only have infinite sorrow? Life seems to be destined to end here, but if the dream in front of us can last forever, what regrets are there to have?
It turns out that this is all I want! When a person is about to die, even if there is infinite sorrow, at least he finally knows what he really wants!
Moreover, the real feeling seems to have been realized, only this moment, this life is enough!
However, how many people can truly see what they have experienced in life?
Maybe it's really only memory that can make people immerse themselves in it forever. Even if you lose everything, only the memory is irreplaceable, only for yourself to remember......
