The ghost-faced monk kicked Huang Taro on the ground unconscious, Lu Ya asked: "Are you ......" Before the words fell, the ghost-faced monk held the mask with one hand and slowly took it off, revealing an angular face, and a scar appeared, "After many years of separation, do you still recognize me?"

Although Lu Ya had already guessed in his heart, seeing that the ghost-faced monk took off his mask, it was actually the same person as the person he expected before, Lu Ya still felt that he never dreamed that this was true, he rushed over and grabbed one of the ghost-faced monk's hands, and said, "Uncle Jiang, it's really you, how have you lived for so many years?"

The ghost-faced monk is Jiang Cheng, he grabbed Lu Ya's hand tightly with one hand, and slowly raised his other hand, wanting to touch Lu Ya's head, when Lu Ya was young, Jiang Zheng once stuck a feather on his head, looking back it seems to be yesterday, but at this moment Jiang Cheng's hand was only raised in the air, and did not fall, his hand was stained with too much blood of innocent lives, how could he still touch other people's heads. Besides, now is not the time for children to grow up, after so many years of being alone, day and night, Jiang Cheng's personality has changed greatly, recalling the past time, he only sighed a little in his heart, that moment of sighing, and in an instant, he gritted his teeth, put his hand down again, and said coldly: "For so many years, I have lived a dark life. Man is not like man, and ghost is not like a ghost. ”

Lu Ya said: "I know that Uncle Daojiang must have suffered a lot and suffered a lot of grievances, which is all to blame for that Yi Si Lianzhen, but unfortunately he escaped in Dadu, otherwise it would ......."

Jiang Cheng said: "I do blame him for becoming a demon, but I don't blame him entirely. I have today. The number of fates is still related to Zhang Shijie. ”

Lu Yaqi said: "How do you say this?"

Jiang Cheng's eyes were blurred, recalling the events of the past. Let go of Lu Ya's hand, and said lightly: "In the battle of Yashan, the Great Song Water Army was almost wiped out, I wanted to lead the Jiang family army to the rescue, but the mountain city was surrounded by Li Heng's men and horses, and on the second day, the news came that the emperor was dead." At that time, I was disheartened, although I thought that I had died and died for the country, but Jiang Jiajun followed the lives of my 2,000 brothers. But I couldn't ignore it, so I dispelled the idea of committing suicide, remembering that Zhang Hongfan had killed so many compatriots in Jiangnan, and I definitely couldn't surrender. Yashan was besieged for seven days. In the small mountain city, our 2,000 men could not hold it for long after all, so we had no choice but to lead the crowd to break through, and the brothers were dead and wounded, and only a few hundred people escaped after the last escape. The sunset that day was as beautiful as it is today, as if it was stained with blood. ”

Jiang Cheng folded his hands behind his back and faced the setting sun. Recalling that there was not much left of the two thousand Jiang family army, his heart was full of emotion. "I thought that the Great Song Dynasty was hopeless, so I asked hundreds of people to sneak to Suzhou in batches to find the old Jiangnan department of the year, and organize the righteous army to continue to resist the Yuan. I secretly found Taizhen Taoist, that is, Jia Buping, infiltrated the Tartar military camp, and whimsically wanted to assassinate Zhang Hongfan, and Jia Buping persuaded me to kill him and not reverse the situation of the Great Song Dynasty, at that time I just wanted to kill Zhang Hongfan to avenge the emperor, and I couldn't care so much.

Jia Buping has a good relationship with Zhang Hongfan, so naturally he won't help me, and Zhang Jue also found out at that time that it was his master who let me go before, so Jia Buping had no choice but to leave. I knew that Lu Dao was not Zhang Jue's opponent, so I hid in the army until one day Zhang Jue was sent to Jiangnan, I felt that my opportunity had come, and on the way north by boat, I gave Zhang Hongfan a knife while he was asleep. Zhang Hongfan screamed in pain and knocked my knife to the ground, when the officers and soldiers surrounded me, and I threw myself into the water and fled. ”

Lu Ya nodded, "It turns out that Zhang Hongfan died like this, no wonder he died not long after returning to Daxu." It's just that the Taizhen Taoist is also my sworn brother, you said that he had a very good relationship with Zhang Hongfan, so why didn't he stop you? Why did he bring you to the barracks? Is he a good person or a bad person?" Lu Ya couldn't help but think of Jia Buping helping Zhang Hongfan learn the flying chain knife, so he wanted to ask Jiang Cheng how much he knew about Jia Buping.

Jiang Cheng sneered: "Good guy, bad guy? Who knows what he said? I can't even tell whether I'm good or bad, how can I distinguish others? Zhang Hongfan has the grace of knowing Jia Buping, so Jia Buping has also done many wrong things, until a small village in the south of the Yangtze River was slaughtered overnight, he reflected on what he had done in the past, at that time your master's wife and children were all in that village, he had old friends with your master, how could he not be sad? It was not until he met Prime Minister Wen Cheng in prison that he completely decided to change his past wrongs. ”

Lu Ya suddenly realized, it turned out that Jia Buping gave up the big righteousness for the sake of small righteousness, and the last thing he got was such a result.

It's just that he couldn't bear to kill Zhang Hongfan when he remembered his old feelings, but what was the use of him waking up at that time? After that, he went incognito, didn't ask about the world, and changed from a Taizhen Taoist to today's confused Jia Buping. ”

Lu Ya understood the whole story, and felt sad in his heart, it turned out that Brother Jia pretended to be confused and had a hippie smile on the surface, but he turned out to be full of remorse, "Then what does it have to do with you becoming a demon and Uncle Zhang?"

Jiang Cheng said: "After I fled to Jiangnan, I contacted the old department, only to know that Zhang Shijie had another way to retreat, so I took the rest of the Jiang family army to defect, but I didn't know that because I had opposed him building a water village in the sea before the naval battle, Zhang Shijie has always hated it, and I have an upright temperament, and I didn't think too much." After arriving in Xuanyuan Village, I said that he should not disobey my advice, but he said that I divided my troops to defend and delayed the fighter, and I did not go to rescue the emperor when he was in trouble, and none of us could convince anyone, and finally broke up unhappily. After that, he joined forces with Yang Zhenlong, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, cut my military power, and put me in prison, he asked me to admit my mistake, so he let me go, but I was not convinced, it was obviously his fault, why should it be on my head? Do you say that Zhang Shijie is right or wrong to do this?"

Lu Ya said: "If that's the case, then ...... That's right, of course. ”

Jiang Cheng smiled and said: "I think so too, I didn't die on the battlefield, can I still die at the hands of my own people? Even if he doesn't kill me, as long as I don't admit my mistakes, then I don't want to stay in prison for the rest of my life? It's my former subordinates who secretly let me go and let me go." I was disheartened and became a monk, but I did not want to come to Middle-earth as a missionary, with whom I had fought before, and he recognized me. Capture me and refine me into a demon. Although I have escaped now, I have lost countless innocent people who have died at my hands. I could have died, but all who hurt me lived. How can I belittle myself like this, now that I will not find me for the time being, I will be free, and one day I will see the light of day again, the opportunity for Zhang Shijie's disgrace is in front of me, should I let it go?"

Lu Ya was startled, extremely embarrassed. "If it is for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, you should still reconcile. ”

Jiang Cheng said: "He colluded with the White Lotus Sect's gang of outlaws, do you really think it is a long-term plan? Although he was later killed in battle, did the White Lotus disciples under Yang Qinhu really willingly become the people of the Great Song Dynasty? Zhang Shijie's move was very dangerous. ”

"Old ...... The fourth. This...... What to do with this guy?" Chen Yihua came out of the wine shop with the young man in one arm.

As soon as the young man saw Jiang Cheng, he shouted, "Helper." Help the Lord save me. ”

Lu Yaqi said: "Helper?"

Jiang Cheng smiled: "You don't know what to do, I sent Yin Lan back to Suzhou, and then I went to the Yuliu Gang, that Yu Yuehai always avoided me before, but now he is blind, so I can find it easily." In the past, when I wanted to eat people, I would sometimes go to him and catch someone back, but I didn't think this guy was very cunning. Every time I went, he ran away on Hot Wheels. When I went back this time, the boats had not yet been repaired, so I was arrested. I don't know where that kid learned a strange swordsmanship, it's really powerful, although he can't see it, but he was still stabbed in the leg when he fought with him at the beginning, fortunately, he is blind, if this sword hits the vital point, then I can't talk to you here. ”

Lu Ya said: "Then how did you become their helper?"

Jiang Cheng said with a smile: "Then Yu Yuehai will only have that one trick when he turns over and over, so that there are more flaws and he will come out, and he will be knocked down by me with a stick, he begged me for mercy, I think they loot in Taihu Lake for a living, it is not a long-term solution, even if I kill Yu Yuehai, then the other water cowards will return to their old business, so I will simply be their boss, control them, and let them contribute to the Great Song Dynasty in the future." These people are the Xinjiang Family Army of my group. ”

"Uncle Jiang, the idea is good," Lu Ya frowned and said, "It's just that these people are full of evil, and they are idle on weekdays, I'm afraid it's not so easy to restrain them." ”

The young man shouted: "Good restraint, good restraint, you see that I am caught by this big brother, and I don't dare to let go of my fart." ”

Chen Yihua patted his head and scolded, "Get out...... Fuck off, you have a lot of fart...... Less, shut up for me. ”

The young man really bit his mouth tightly, for fear of leaking a little sound.

Lu Ya shook his head and said: "Such a greedy person who is afraid of death, even if it is used by you temporarily, if he goes to the battlefield, he will definitely not be the opponent of the Mongols." ”

Jiang Cheng Da Lang smiled and said: "How can I not know that these people are all rabble, but they are very good in water, with them, I can attack Zhongyi Island and fight with Zhang Shijie." I swear I'm going to ruin this man! After saying "ah", he looked up to the sky and howled, and the aftermath lingered, and the reeds on both sides of the strait swayed with the wind, as if awakened by this shout.

Lu Ya's frightened eyes widened, looking at Jiang Cheng's face reflected in the setting sun, the scar was getting older and darker, although he was in the prime of life, the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes were already flushed, just like Jiang Cheng's weather-beaten heart, but this face seemed to be more terrifying than the Yaksha mask.

The past is vivid, Lu Ya once wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy like Uncle Jiang Cheng when he was a child, and it was he who gently stuck a feather on his head at that time, but he didn't expect that ten years later, it was also this person who would turn against Zhongyi Island. This made Lu Ya feel that the person in front of him was both familiar and unfamiliar, "Uncle Jiang ......"

(End of Volume 3) (To be continued......)

PS: There's not much time, just one chapter today, more than 3,000 words.

The foreshadowing set at the beginning of the first volume is fully explained at the end of the third volume, and I believe that the reader can also roughly understand the direction of the matter. I feel that the handling here is a bit sloppy, and the narration of the ghost-faced monk is also bland. Because the previous setting was not like this, I wanted to directly ask Lu Ya to go to the island to snatch Yin Lan back to complete Volume 3, but the martial arts conference took up a lot of space, so I changed it again, rewrote all the original settings, and deleted a lot of content.

After writing three volumes, I will start writing the fourth volume tomorrow, Yin Lan is back, still dignified and intelligent, soft on the outside and rigid on the inside. In addition, Xiang Nan had already gone to the desert at this time, and when the time came, we would see if we could call Yin Lan, Xiang Nan, and Lu Ya to make sparks. Originally, I didn't want to call the two heroines to meet, but after thinking about it, I changed the draft, maybe it would be more interesting for the three of them to walk the desert together, the two women are jealous, who does Lu Ya prefer? What should I do if I am caught in the middle?

There is another VIP recommendation next week, I hope you will continue to support ~
