Chapter VII Human Nature
Chapter 7: Human Nature (1)
In the rivers and lakes, if anyone has not heard of the "knife idiot" Kou Fei, then he will be ridiculed for not being a qualified person in the rivers and lakes. Because, even if the people in the rivers and lakes don't know the "knife idiot" Kou Fei, they will definitely recognize his big knife!
There is a knife in the rivers and lakes, which haunts people to death! However, the person who came from the shade of the forest was none other than the "knife idiot" Kou Fei.
I have to admit that Kou Fei is indeed a very stubborn person! In order to be able to compete with Yue Fan, he has been looking for the other party for more than two months, but "upstairs" refuses to betray Yue Fan's whereabouts, so he has to inquire all the way about Yue Fan's news, and whenever there is a little bit of information about Yue Fan, he will immediately set off.
In more than two months, this Kou Fei traveled from Hangzhou to Kyoto, and from Kyoto to the frontier, almost across the entire north and south of the river...... Finally, he finally rushed to Ningxian County, and he could be regarded as chasing Yue Fan.
Last night, Kou Fei wanted to go directly to Yue Fan to compete with the knife, but who knew that Yue Fan suddenly fought with another master, which ruthlessly interrupted his plan.
Kou Fei felt that things were strange, and out of curiosity, he secretly paid attention to them. But in the end, just as he was immersed in the fight between the two sides, the series of changes caught him off guard, the two women stepped away with their swords, Yue Fan also rushed after him, and when he reacted, where was there still half a figure?!
Tracking all the way, Kou Fei felt the qi of heaven and earth surging violently, and finally found this place, but before he could breathe two breaths, he was actually discovered, which was really depressing.
......
Yue Fan raised his head slowly, the melancholy and vicissitudes in his eyes gave Kou Fei a great shock, how many times does it take to go through reincarnation to have such eyes!
"Senior, do you still want to compare knives with me?" Yue Fan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw someone coming.
"Of course!" Kou Fei said with a natural look: "Little brother, you promised the old man, but you are not allowed to cheat......! Hehe~~ The old man's reputation in the rivers and lakes is not very good, you must have heard of it!"
"Huh!"
Yue Fan stood up without hesitation, lifted the war knife beside him, waved it twice, and said, "If you want to compare, then come!"
As soon as the words fell, the killing intent of the battle knife continued to rise with Yue Fan's momentum! The surrounding air instantly condensed, as if it had turned into a world of ice.
"What?you, what are you doing?!" Seeing Yue Fan's desperate look, Kou Fei couldn't help but shudder, quickly jumped away, and said with a dry smile: "Hehe~~ First, wait for the little brother...... I didn't say that I would compete with you now, right? Uh! Little brother, the old man has seen what happened last night, and I know you want to vent now, but the old man is old, so don't let your anger on my head! Moreover, if your heart is not right, the knife will be evil, even if your knife skills have improved, can you exert its original power? No, right......? Besides, the knife is our friend, and we should love and care for him...... And ......"
"Doo!"
At Yue Fan's signal, Xiaohuo dragged the sword box over, and then without saying a word, he put away the knife and left!
This Kou Fei is too wordy, what he said in the front is still like a person's words, but the more he talks about the back, this person's words are completely out of control! Yue Fan believes that Kou Fei's saliva is more fierce than his knife, no wonder no one in the rivers and lakes doesn't want to see him, for fear that he will be drowned in saliva if he is not careful.
"Little brother, don't go, the old man hasn't talked so freely for a long time......" Kou Fei came back to his senses and followed.
Yue Fan suddenly stopped, turned around and asked, "Senior, may I ask where this place is?"
Kou Fei responded: "This is in Henan, close to Zhangde Mansion!"
"Zhangde Mansion!" Yue Fan was taken aback, of course he had heard of Zhangde Mansion, which was quite far away from Ningcheng. I didn't expect to run hundreds of miles of mountain roads overnight. After hesitating for a moment, Yue Fan then walked down the mountain. And Xiao Huo Le Le followed behind him, as if he smelled the smell of meat.
"Wait, little brother, where are you going?"
"Into town!"
......
――――――――――――
Zhangde Mansion, located on the border of Henan, accessible on all sides, was originally a place moistened by rain and dew, but due to the erosion of a war, it became extremely barren. In addition, the Zhangde County Order was beheaded by the righteous army, and the imperial court was too busy to take care of itself, how could it have the energy to manage such a small place, so after a long time, Zhangde Mansion became a chaotic place that no one managed. If there are very many traders going back and forth between the north and the south, I am afraid that this place will be empty for a long time. Even so, the people of the city were still dressed in old clothes and tired-looking.
As the sun set in the west, a faint afterglow scattered across the sky.
Yue Fan entered the city from the north gate, and as soon as he stepped into the city, his brows couldn't help but twist into a ball.
There is no anger in the whole city, inns, teahouses, hotels and other business places are closed, a dilapidated scene is around, the streets on both sides are unoperated, coiled into thick cobwebs, people who come and go are depressed, and even the past traders are silent, looking around vigilantly, for fear that someone will come to rob the same.
Heaven seems to be very fond of playing tricks on the world, and the more you are afraid of something, the more something will happen.
A group of vendors walked in front of them, and as soon as they reached the corner of the street, a group of masked men suddenly rushed out, punched and kicked the guards of the car, and then scattered and fled with lightning speed, holding the contents of the car!
Yue Fan felt stunned for a while, Lang Lang dared to rob in the city, and these thieves were also bold?!
Behind him, Kou Fei stepped forward and patted Yue Fan on the shoulder, as if to explain: "If it's so messy today, no one will care if you grab something." ”
“......”
Seeing that Yue Fan was silent, Kou Fei didn't have the slightest consciousness of being one of the top ten masters of the righteous path, and continued: "On the rivers and lakes, grievances, hatreds, fights, killings and killings have gone to the sea, this little thing is nothing, anyway, there are no deaths. And, in times of despair, the ugliness of human nature will be revealed...... You see that the few people just now, none of them have a posture, two have no internal strength, and three have no experience, but they rely on the large number of people and brute force to dare to come out and rob the passing traders. Looking at the appearance of them when they fled, it was obvious that they were very familiar with the city, and they must have been from the neighborhood, or people who had been hungry for several days. ”
Yue Fan said disapprerovingly: "People always have to be responsible for what they do, this is the retribution of good and evil." ”
Kou Fei was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the young man in front of him again. He does not have awe-inspiring righteousness but is tenacious and upright, without the frivolity and impulsiveness of a teenager but flows with the blood of a man, just like an old man who knows the world well, behind that resolute face, full of vicissitudes of wind and rain and principles of life.
......
As you walk, the people here have empty eyes and despair in their souls, walking the streets like a walking corpse.
Yue Fan took a deep breath, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and then he retracted.
If these people are unwilling to change the status quo, they can only wait for death in silence, and no one can help them
In the dark corner of the street, a tattered child sits on his knees, warming his cheeks and legs.
Yue Fan has seen too much of such pettiness, but among those people, there are few people who are as self-respecting and self-reliant as Long Jun and Ding Yi. Because, Long Jun and Ding Yi never thought of themselves as beggars, and they never begged for other people's alms, this is the difference.
Shaking his head, Yue Fan was about to leave, when there was a sudden commotion in front of him, and the child in the corner quickly jumped up and rushed towards the source of the commotion.
Originally, he was an inconsequential little beggar, but the moment Yue Fan saw the other party's face clearly, his whole person froze, and his constricted pupils contained a kind of anger from his soul!
Kou Fei was an old Jianghu, and he could see Yue Fan's abnormality at a glance, so he asked, "What's wrong with you, little brother?"
Yue Fan didn't explain much, nodded slightly, and walked briskly forward!
