49. The impermanence of fate is teased in every way, and the blood of the white head is less bloody (final chapter)
When the unwise monk found Ah Fei, the little bell's body had already become cold, and Ah Fei was like a statue, holding the little bell tightly and motionless. If it weren't for hearing Yu Xiaolong's cry, the unwise monk might not have noticed that there were still people by this lake.
"Let's go. When the unwise monk saw the dagger on the little bell's chest, he understood everything.
Ah Fei didn't move.
"Let's go, let's go home. It's cold at night, you can bear it, but the little doll can't. β
Ah Fei stood up slowly, still holding the little bell in one hand and the little dragon in the other, walking back step by step. Where's his home? Originally, his two hands were all of his new home, but half of them had disappeared tonight. He finally had another home, but God seemed to be playing tricks on him, destroying this new home that had just been established.
He was depressed, he was angry, he wanted to kill, and the desire in his heart that had been imprisoned for a long time suddenly rushed out of the cage again.
"Ah Fei, the eldest brother of the Zhao family, they are hereβwhat's wrong with you?" Early the next morning, Zhao Yong and Sun Bao went to Ah Fei's house to discuss the funeral of the little bell, and the unwise monk went into the house to call Ah Fei, but he didn't want to see a white-haired man sitting at the head of the bed.
In just one night, this young man in his early twenties turned into snow, and the unwise monk only felt heartache, and couldn't help but rush forward and hug Ah Fei, sighing repeatedly: "Ah Fei, Ah Fei, my little brother Ah Fei!"
After the little bell was buried, Ah Fei let the girl Dongyue go to Junshan with her son in tow, and then dismissed all the servants in the family - he just wanted to be alone and quiet, reminiscing about the past with the little bell, as well as the bowl of green vegetable and fish ball soup that could never be eaten again.
At home, except for Ah Fei, only the unwise monk has always been. Ah Fei knew that this old friend was worried about his safety, but fortunately he didn't come to disturb him, so he didn't drive him back to Junshan.
After a few days, one day, the unwise monk suddenly walked into Ah Fei's room and said, "Ah Fei, there is a letter here, which was sent from the Jiang Mansion." β
As soon as he heard that it was a letter sent by Jiang Fu, Ah Feideng's eyes lit up, and he snatched the letter from him, read the letter carefully and carefully, and then said, "Did the person who sent the letter say anything?"
This sentence, but the first sentence that Ah Fei said in the past few days, the unwise monk was slightly surprised, and then said: "I didn't say anything useful, just asked me to give you this letter, what did the letter say?"
"Nothing. Ah Fei said as he tore the letter to shreds.
I heard that Jiang Caixuan's body was salvaged from the lake a few days ago, and her pretty face had been eaten by the fish in the lake, but her red wedding dress was still there. The unwise monk thought that there was probably nothing good written in this letter, so he shook his head and stopped asking.
In the evening, the unwise monk saw that Ah Fei was carrying the purple gold knife and was about to go out, so he hurriedly said, "Why are you going?"
"Going out for a walk, being bored at home for too long, uncomfortable. Ah Fei said.
The unwise monk always felt that it was related to the letter, so he said, "I'll go with you!"
"No, I'll just go back. β
"It's okay, I'm going out for a walk, I've been bored at home for the past few days. The unwise monk smiled.
Ah Fei knew that he couldn't lose this great monk, so he smiled and rushed to the shore of Dongting Lake by himself.
By the lake, there was a classical and gorgeous painting boat, and when the unwise monk saw Ah Fei walking straight towards the painting boat, he said, "This boat belongs to the Jiang family?"
"Hmm. Ah Fei nodded.
"Then Jiang San Shaojiang asked you to meet here tonight?"
"Yu Shaoxia, senior brother in charge has been waiting for a long time. Suddenly, Wang Zheng came out of the painting boat and answered this question for Ah Fei. When he saw that the unwise monk was also coming, he hugged his fists and said, "The unwise senior brother is also here." β
The unwise monk smiled: "Hehe, come and sit, come and sit, this ship is so beautiful, it's the first time I've seen it!"
Wang Zheng stared at Ah Fei's white hair, feeling surprised, but he didn't ask anything, just smiled and said, "Two of you, please come in." β
Na Jiang Sanshao sat in the main seat, and when he saw Ah Fei and the others entering the cabin and taking their seats, he ordered the boat, and raised the wine glass on the desk and said: "Yu Shaoxia, I invite you to come today, not for anything else, but for the sake of the sister, to apologize to you." When such a thing happened, Jiang was very distressed, regretting the lack of discipline for her sister on weekdays, which made her make a big mistake and ruined Yu Shaoxia's family. Jiang Sanshao is here, I apologize to you!" As he spoke, he drank all the wine in his cup.
"yes, yes, that's the best. Since Master Jiang has this heart, that's the best, isn't it, Ah Fei?" The unwise monk took the wine glass and drank it all, seeing that Ah Fei's face was expressionless, and he didn't mean to raise a glass at all, so he raised his hand again and again to hint. Ah Fei reluctantly took the cup and wet his lips.
Jiang Sanshao smiled, didn't care, but poured another cup and said: "Yu Shaoxia is the brother-in-law of the old dragon head, and Jiang is in the position of the head of the Xiaoxiang faction, and I hope that our two families will not hurt the harmony because of this matter, spoil the peaceful atmosphere of Jinghu Martial Arts, and create an opportunity for the villains." Come, Yu Shaoxia, Jiang will toast you again!"
Seeing Jiang Sanshao's second glass of wine in his stomach, Ah Fei really couldn't pull his face anymore, so he had to drink the residual wine in the cup, and said: "Master Jiang, Ah Fei can still distinguish right from wrong, and will not be angry with others casually." β
Jiang Sanshao sighed: "Alas, after all, this matter is the fault of my sister, and I, who is my brother, will not escape the blame." In order to make up for the mistakes, in the future, whatever Yu Shaoxia entrusts, my Xiaoxiang faction must do its best. I heard that Yu Shaoxia has a baby son, if you don't dislike it, Jiang wants Ling Gongzi to worship under my Xiaoxiang faction, I don't know what Yu Shaoxia wants?"
When the unwise monk saw that Ah Fei had already spoken, his heart was a little wider, and he took a big bite of the wine and food on the table in front of him. He heard that Jiang Sanshao intended to accept Yu Xiaolong as an apprentice, so he hurriedly swallowed the dishes in his mouth, and waved his hand again and again: "No, Master Jiang, I have already told Ah Fei in advance, his son, that is my apprentice!"
"Hehehe, since Yu Xiaogongzi has been accepted as a disciple by the unwise senior brother, he is also a disciple of the Xiaoxiang faction, very good, very good. Jiang Sanshao said with a smile.
"That's right, then you don't want to rob me!" The unwise monk laughed, his face changed suddenly, and he covered his stomach and said, "Oh, my stomach hurts!"
"Great monk, what's wrong?" Ah Fei stood up suddenly, and then felt the world spinning, cramping in his abdomen, his hands and feet were sore, and he sat down with a thud.
"There is poison in the wine and food!" The unwise monk lay on the case and roared, pointing at Jiang Sanshao, "You are the head of a famous family in vain, and you have resorted to such indiscriminate means!"
"It's not poison, it's a drug, but I want to avenge my Caixuan sister with my own hands, how can I be willing to use poison?" Jiang Sanshao sneered, took out a short sword, and turned his head to Wang Zheng who was standing behind him: "This unwise senior brother, I will leave it to you." β
"This ......" Wang Zheng looked at the unwise monk's painful expression, and suddenly realized that if the unwise monk didn't come, then it should be himself sitting in that seat, and he couldn't help but be shocked: "Could it be that the senior brother in charge still wants to drug me?"
Jiang San rarely saw that Wang Zheng seemed to be unwilling to do anything, so he snorted and ignored it, but pounced directly on Ah Fei, shouting: "It's because of you that my sister's life has been ruined!"
"Don't!" The unwise monk saw that Ah Fei was missing, and he didn't know where to give birth to a strength, raised the case and smashed it at Jiang Sanshao, and at the same time staggered up, blocked in front of Ah Fei, and shouted: "Don't hurt my good brother!"
Jiang San rarely saw the unwise monk with a hideous look on his face, he was afraid in his heart, and he was afraid that he was good at kung fu, so he stabbed out more than a dozen swords in a row, and the swords were all hit by the key points. The unwise monk just relied on his anger and got up angrily, and where did he have any power to fight back, only to hear him scream "ah" and fall to the boat. The huge body fell, causing the ship to tremble.
"Great monk!" Ah Fei groaned, wanting to get lucky, but he felt that there was nothing in the dantian, and his whole body was sweating, so he could only sit on the cabin with his body propped up, looking at Jiang Sanshao and sneering contemptuously: "If it weren't for the fact that the great monk had to follow me, the moment I got on the boat, your head would have landed." He is a good person everywhere, but his heart is too kind. β
"In that case, I should have thanked him. Jiang Sanshao smiled cruelly, "Then trouble you, go down and talk to him!"
"Is Master Jiang in the painting boat? Dongting Thirteen Water Gang Zhao Lao Longtou came to pay a visit! Dongting Thirteen Water Gang Zhao Lao Longtou came to visit!" Suddenly, I could only hear earth-shaking shouts from all directions on the river, and it seemed that hundreds of people shouted together.
"It's not good, senior brother in charge, it's someone from the Water Gang who is here!" Wang Zheng exclaimed.
"I know!" Jiang Sanshao had already slashed the short sword.
Ah Fei struggled to twist his body diagonally, avoiding the short sword, and at the same time drew his sword, protecting it in front of his chest, blocking the second sword stabbed by Jiang Sanshao.
"What?" Jiang Sanshao exclaimed, "How is it possible?"
"The carving insect skill can't kill me at all!" Ah Fei said with a smile.
"Senior brother in charge, it's urgent, quickly board the boat and leave!" Wang Zheng urged.
"Let's go!" Jiang Sanshao said angrily and left the cabin with great regret.
"Dang!" Ah Fei only felt a burst of sleepiness attack, and the purple gold knife could no longer hold it, so he had to throw it down. When he saw that the unwise monk was not moving, he desperately crawled to the monk's side and said, "Great monk, are you still alive?"
"Also...... And gas. The unwise monk muttered.
"Big brother, they're here, you have to hold on!"
"Master Jiang...... It's too ruthless...... I don't do it. As he spoke, the unwise monk coughed, and all he coughed out was blood. He took Ah Fei's hand and said, "Promise me...... Don't take revenge...... Don't kill. β
Ah Fei was silent.
The unwise monk thought that this little friend would say something like "Okay, then I'll listen to you first" as before, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed. He stared at Ah Fei with widening eyes, but he still didn't hear a word, so he kept staring until he couldn't see anything anymore, and he couldn't hear any sound.
"I'm sorry, Great Monk, I can't do it. Ah Fei saw that the unwise monk had already swallowed his breath, so he said softly.
"Brother-in-law, what's the matter!" Zhao Yong stepped into the cabin of the painting boat and couldn't help but be shocked when he saw such a tragic image.
"The great monk has passed away. β
"What did Jiang San Shao do?"
"Yes. β
"The surname Jiang is really too deceitful, my Zhao family's blood revenge has not been avenged, and he has added a few debts to me, I have to kill him!" Zhao Yong said angrily.
"What blood feud?"
"Before Brother Afu left, he told me that our Zhao family was almost wiped out, all thanks to Jiang Sanshao, and it was he who joined forces with Lao Tzu and Li Zhenhai behind his back to kill my whole family!"
"I see. β
A few days later, Ah Fei came to the grave of the unwise monk with a pot of dog meat.
"Great monk, I'm leaving. The ten-year appointment with Master is almost here, and I am going to the north to find the enemy who killed my grandfather. Ah Fei put the dog meat on the grave and said, "Before leaving, I specially used your big iron pot to cook your favorite dog meat, you smell this fragrance, are you hungry?"
He sat against the tombstone, drank a few sips of the wine in the iron gourd, sprinkled some in front of the grave of the unwise monk, and then picked up a piece of dog meat and said while eating: "I didn't bring you garlic, so I'll eat it." He paused, and then said, "Xiaolong, I handed it over to his uncle to raise, and I can't take the child with me now." But don't worry, I told his uncle that when he grows up, I will bring him to you, kowtow to you, and worship you as a master. This is a good thing, but it can't be changed. Your martial arts are so high, Xiaolong will definitely not be bullied in the rivers and lakes in the future. Little bell, I won't go, I have gray hair now, I'm afraid I'm going to scare her, if you see her below, help me with a word, say I miss her very much. β
After eating a few more pieces of dog meat, Ah Fei got up and said, "Okay, I should go, if I have the chance, I will come to see you again." β
Without taking a few steps, Ah Fei heard a dog barking behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out that two wild dogs were fighting over the pot of dog meat. He suddenly remembered that when he was at a fisherman's house on the shore of Poyang Lake, an unwise monk told him that wild dogs don't eat dog meat to persuade him not to kill people, and he couldn't help but shake his head and thought secretly: "Great monk, in this world, there are good people and evil people, and naturally there are good dogs and evil dogs. Maybe what you met that day was a good dog with the same bodhisattva heart as you, but in this world, there are more wild dogs like this behind me. β
On the fifteenth day of July in the seventh year of the Great Song Dynasty, on the night of the Middle Yuan Dynasty, dozens of families in Yuezhou Chengjiang on Jinghu North Road were slaughtered, and the courtyard was full of blood. The head of the family, Jiang Sanshao, was nailed to the wall with a crossbow arrow, and there were seventy-two knife wounds of different depths all over his body, and the death was terrifying. This matter had a very bad impact in Wulin, and even alarmed the six doors of the Criminal Department, but after the famous arrest in the capital went to Yuezhou to investigate in many ways, it was only known that it was done by a white-haired person, and there were no other clues, so the case had to be put on hold for the time being.
And the legend of the white-haired ghost asking for his life on the night of the middle yuan has spread far and wide on the rivers and lakes.
