A knife in love

Chapter 364

Seeing that Li Qiufeng put the knife into its sheath and did not hurt Situ Qiao, Liu Yong was relieved and turned to Situ Qiao and said, "Mr. Situ, no matter what, please let that friend surnamed Zhu go first." Come out. If he really has ulterior motives, we have so many martial arts masters here, but we don't have to be afraid of him. Wouldn't it be good to deal with it after we ask him clearly?"

Everyone listened to what Liu Yong said was reasonable, and nodded their heads in agreement.Unexpectedly, Situ Qiao shook his head and said: "Mr. Liu, that man is confused and extremely reckless. It doesn't matter whether he is a good guy or a bad guy, it's useless to rescue him, and he doesn't care what he does..."

What he said was not only rude to Liu Yong, it could be called nonsense.Several gang leaders and sect leaders had been dissatisfied with him for a long time, and finally broke out at this moment.Deng Yao, the leader of the beggar gang, said angrily: "Fuck, are you impatient?! You were talking nonsense all the way, and we gave you face, but we didn't bother to talk to you. I can't think of you The boy didn't know how to restrain himself, so he pushed his nose on his face. Alright, I will teach you a lesson and let you know how to respect martial arts seniors!"

While talking, Deng Yao rolled up his tattered sleeves, squeezed past Chu Danyang and Xu Chenghe in front of him, and was about to rush over to punch Situ Qiao.Xu Chenghe hastily stopped him and said, "Mr. Deng, we have agreed that everything will be in charge of Mr. Liu. You should not be so impulsive. What's more, this Mr. Situ is not an enemy. We suddenly have internal strife, which is not good for the big things. Please ask Mr. Deng Think twice!"

"Think twice? Think twice!" Deng Yao was so angry that he had long forgotten the demeanor of the leader of the gang, pointed at Situ Qiao and said to Xu Chenghe: "Master Xu, this kid is clearly a swindling charlatan, saying He said that the friend surnamed Zhu was a bad person, so I took him as a fart. When I was outside the cave, my brothers from the beggar gang and brother Li, and the friend surnamed Zhu Join forces to fight against the officers and soldiers. If it wasn't for the friend surnamed Zhu to save him, the old beggar's life would have been taken by the officers and soldiers long ago. Maybe his body would have been trampled to pieces by the officers and soldiers' cavalry. How could he still talk to everyone here? A beggar can guarantee his life, and that friend named Zhu is definitely not a bad person! This charlatan must have other plans to frame a good person, how can we be fooled by him?!"

Lin Yilang nodded at the side and said: "Banzhu Deng is right. I have long seen that this kid is crazy and not like a good person. Although the Hua family in Beijing is well-known in the Jianghu, but their behavior is strange, and they have long been associated with Jinyiwei , not a righteous person. This kid is the son-in-law of the Hua family, what kind of good bird can he be? In my opinion, we might as well take him down, torture him, find out his conspiracy, and then execute him to avoid future troubles!"

While fighting with Xu Chenghe, Deng Yao said to Lin Yilang: "First let him release his friend surnamed Zhu. If he dares not listen, then break his hands and feet so that he can only crawl and walk for the rest of his life." !"

Liu Yong saw that Deng Yao and Lin Yilang were aggressive, and he just wanted to rush forward to fight Situ Qiao. He wanted to persuade him, but he saw that the faces of all the gang leaders and heads were hesitant, and Li Qiufeng also had a fierce look in his eyes. , staring at Situ Qiao fiercely.He knew that Situ Qiao had provoked the anger of the public, so he rashly tried to persuade them. He was afraid that not only would he not be able to appease the anger of the crowd, but would even cause people to resent him, and he even doubted whether he had any collusion with Situ Qiao.Liu Yong is a calm and prudent person who always puts the overall situation first and is a master at reconciling yin and yang.Therefore, he has a very good reputation in the Jianghu, even Qiu Ji, the head of the Huashan School, is not as famous as him in the martial arts.The reason why all the gangs are so convinced of the Huashan faction's star-picking swordsman is that he handles things fairly and never favors any side when mediating disputes.At this time Situ Qiao was indeed at fault, if Liu Yong forcibly excused him, all the sect leaders and heads present would naturally not be convinced.Therefore, he was thinking of a good strategy in his heart, and he was speechless for a while.

Situ Qiao put his hands behind his back, looked at Deng Yao and Lin Yilang, who were yelling and trying to rush over, without showing any fear.

Only Deng Yao and Lin Yilang's yelling and cursing were heard, mixed with Xu Chenghe, Chu Danyang and others' voices of persuasion, and the secret passage became chaotic for a while.

At this moment, Murong Danyan suddenly heard a sneer and said: "Mr. Situ, it's not that you are unwilling to save, I'm afraid you can't open the stone gate of that cave?!"

When Murong Danyan's words came out, everyone's hearts trembled, even Deng Yao and Lin Yilang, who had been pointing at Situqiao and yelling, stopped talking, not knowing what Murong Danyan meant by saying this.Li Qiufeng thought to himself: "Ms. Murong's words are a little reckless. Although this Situ Qiao is a bastard, he still has some skills, otherwise he would not be able to close the stone door of the cave where Brother Zhu entered, and then open another door. There is no doubt that people are proficient in the art of dunjia. It's just that they are too conceited, narrow-minded, and have a weird temper, which is really annoying!"

Unexpectedly, after listening to Murong Danyan's words, Situ Qiao's original expression of indifference suddenly showed a little bit of embarrassment.Although these awkward expressions were fleeting, Liu Yong, Li Qiufeng, Chu Danyang and others standing in front could see them clearly.The hearts of the few were terrified, and they all thought to themselves: "This Situ Qiao was so insulted by Lin Yilang and Deng Yao, but he didn't change his face. He is obviously a very thick-skinned person. Why did Murong Danyan say something? Will it be so embarrassing? Could it be that he really can't open that stone door?"

Among the crowd, Liu Yong was the shrewdest. Seeing that things had changed, he said first: "Mr. Situ, we are forced by the situation, and we have reached a critical moment of life and death. Whether we can find clues to the cave in Jingxin Temple depends entirely on Mr. Situ." Let's lead the way. When we get here, no fame or disgrace is more important than rescuing the thousands of heroes trapped in the cave. I also ask Mr. Situ not to worry about trifles, and to speak out as much as you want. Liu guarantees that those who are present All the sect masters and heads, you will not show any disrespect to Mr. Situ."

Situ Qiao coughed twice, with a hesitant look on his face, after a while, as if he had made up his mind, he said slowly: "This little brother is right..."

When he said this, Liu Yong and others thought: "What kind of little brother is not a little brother, this is obviously a little girl. Everyone can see it, but you, a master of mechanics, can't see it. It really is." There is a sequence of hearing, and there is a specialization in art. This Situ Qiao has delved into the art of organ information to the point of madness, and he doesn't understand other things at all, which is a pity, a pity."

But I heard Situ Qiao say: "I really can't open that stone gate."

Hearing this, Deng Yao couldn't help saying loudly: "Fart! Shit! Damn it, that Shimen was obviously closed by you, why are you saying that you can't open it?!"

While talking, he was going to beat Situ Qiao again, but Chu Danyang and Xu Chenghe hurriedly stopped him and kept persuading him.

Situ Qiao smiled wryly, and said to everyone: "I have just said that Yao Guangxiao is a genius, capable of doing things that no one else can do. The world's top master of mechanism art can only manipulate the opening, resting, life, injury, and death. There are only eight gates, sight, death, and surprise. Yao Guangxiao created eight strange gates in addition to these eight gates. The eight positive and eight strange gates cooperate with each other, and there are 64 changes. The most powerful part of this change is The eight gates of auspicious, unlucky and neutral can be interchanged at any time. At first glance, the 64 gates are indeed arranged in the order of innate gossip. Once the mechanism is activated, the 64 gates will begin to change. For example, the Jingmen that the surname Zhu entered just now , after the organ is activated, although he is in the lower evil gate, the evil gate remains unchanged, but the whole hexagram map starts to change. After the stone gate is closed, the gate immediately transfers to other hexagram positions. Even if the stone gate is opened at this time, The cave is no longer the original cave, so the person surnamed Zhu is naturally not in it..."

The more people heard what he said, the more bizarre they became, and naturally they didn't believe him in their hearts.Deng Yao and Lin Yilang began to scold again, and even Xu Chenghe, who was always calm, couldn't help accusing Situ Qiao of "talking nonsense".

Situ Qiao saw that everyone accused him fiercely, so he gave a wry smile, spread his hands, and said to everyone: "Everyone, I did hide something earlier, just because I really couldn't crack the mystery of the 64 gates of life and death created by Yao Guangxiao. I'm afraid of losing face. Now I don't even want face, you still can't trust me, and I have nothing to do."

Seeing him like this, Li Qiufeng thought to himself: "What he said doesn't seem to be fake. This person is arrogant and extremely conceited. Just now he pretended to be profound to cover up his embarrassment that he couldn't open the cave where Brother Zhu was. It was Miss Murong who saw the clues and forced him to admit his mistake. It's just that this matter is too absurd, and it's really hard to be convincing."

When he was thinking, he heard Liu Yong say: "Mr. Situ, could it be that there are really 64 caves in this stone wall?"

Situ Qiao shook his head and said: "It's not 64 cave entrances. There are only eight cave entrances, but after entering the cave, there is another fork hidden in each cave entrance, and the eight cave entrances have become sixteen cave entrances. These eight cave entrances The openings of Zhengbaqi are constantly changing behind the stone wall, including 64 kinds of changes, so although there are eight openings, there are 64 stone caves when you walk in..."

Everyone was calculating in their minds while listening to him, and the more they calculated, the more confused they became. In the end, everyone was dizzy, and even Liu Yong showed a look of hesitation.

Li Qiufeng said: "Since you can't find the cave where Brother Zhu is, why did you open such a cave?"

Li Qiufeng said while pointing to the hole opened by Situ Qiao on the stone wall.Situ Qiao smiled wryly, and said to Li Qiufeng: "Just now I calculated, this hole is the real opening of the eight gates, and it is also the only way out of the 64 gates after being turned upside down by Yao Guangxiao."

Murong Danyan said from the side: "You said that Yao Guangxiao has great powers, how do you know that he is not helping to set up a fake door opening to deceive us?"

Situ Qiao shook his head, and said: "Although Yao Guangxiao is cunning, no matter how he changes his organs, he still won't break away from the limit of the innate gossip map. Just like my name is Situ Qiao, no matter how I change my name, for example Call it Situ Lu, Situ Shan, Situ He, or even Situ Pig, Situ Gou, or if I change this set of clothes, whether it be brocade or silk, but I am still me, and my body will not change in any way. .The same is true for the organ array diagram, no matter how ever-changing it is, the initial things will not change.”

When he said this, he pointed to the hole and said, "Yao Guangxiao set up the mechanism based on the innate gossip diagram. The mechanism has been activated, and the stone cave behind the stone wall begins to change continuously. If the stone gate is closed, the position of the eight gates has changed, and it is no longer the original position. As for what kind of change it is, no one can guess I can only resign myself to fate. I will open the door now. If we go in along this door, we will naturally pass through this stone wall and find the Jingxin Temple. If we close this hole now, we will also enter like Zhu. It’s like a stone cave, and I don’t know which portal to turn into. At that time, we have to recalculate to find the way out.”

When he said this, he spread his hands and continued with a helpless expression: "I have told you all what I know. Believe it or not, it is up to you to listen."
