Red waist breaking line

Chapter 22 (Li Li Branch Line)

Just when Xiao Yezi was entangled with Yunxi, in an unnamed town hundreds of miles away, Li Li, who she was thinking about, was taking the time to rest.

In the middle of the night, the wind blows and the stars twinkle.This is Li Li's rare quiet time in the past half month.During these days, he has become used to hiding from place to place.At this moment, it was already a luxury for him to be able to lie on the soft turf and look up at the stars in the sky.

Recalling half a month ago, he could never have imagined that watching the stars would become his luxury hobby.This reminded him that in the past 19 years, he had never cherished the beauty of the starry sky, and he couldn't help laughing.It turns out that the beauty is lost, and this short-term tranquility will be cherished.

His whole body was stretched out like a big character, as if growing on the grass, he didn't move at all, and didn't want to move.The grassy slope was wet, soaking the thin coat on his back and wet the dagger at his waist.Maybe this will be his future life, every day on guard, thinking, and planning.

In half a month, in just fourteen days, he changed from a clean and carefree young man from a rich family to a drunk who hangs around the drunkard's feast, a child crying in a woman's arms, a child rolling in the mud... Beggars, killers crawling in blood, spirits that they dared not touch before, dark kilns that they never entered before, mud ponds that they refused to drill before, people who never had to kill before.In fourteen days, he really experienced it once and for all.Now when I think of that innocent self back then, it really seems like a lifetime away.

I still remember that day, when I was alone in Pingjiang City, I got separated from Xiao Yezi.It was just a fork in the road, and I met the old man who changed my life.He himself was so young, but when he saw a dozen young and strong people surrounding a skinny old man, he couldn't help but draw his sword to help, and he never thought that he was alone and alone, and he couldn't grasp it in his hands. Make a hero's knife.

"Isn't this the young master of the Li family in Nianfei Village? He didn't even have any hair yet, so he came out to be a dog in the way?"

"Gao Daling has been missing for several days, and he must have something to do with him!"

"This kid usually forms gangs and fights for power. I didn't like him a long time ago, so I abolished him!"

"Stinky boy, don't even look at what kind of hero the uncle is!"

But he didn't back down, put his hands on his chest, and smiled arrogantly, his face was full of contempt without hiding the slightest bit: "Only you are worthy of calling yourself a hero!"

The big man in the head was furious, and he only waved his hand, and his left and right grabbed Li Li's arm. Before Li Li had time to struggle, he was slapped hard and loudly on the cheek, making Li Li's mouth full of blood. .He was dizzy, but the curse became more and more decisive.The big man suddenly smiled when he saw the hatred in his eyes.

"Don't look at this kid who is quite fair, but his eyes are like a wolf!" Before he finished speaking, his cheek was pinched by the big man, "I like it!"

Looking at the evil and wretched eyes of the big man, Li Li understood what the big man wanted to do even if he was indifferent.When the unruly hand touched his body, he yanked forward and bit the big man's right eye.Blood spattered everywhere, spraying him all over the face.

The old man who was not rescued shrank aside, staring at him with big eyes, as if he was very scared.Looking carefully, there seemed to be a look of unbearable expression on the old man's face, but this expression only passed by for a moment, and there was no trace of it.

While the big man was screaming, he kicked the big man's vitals with all his strength.But how could the other party allow him to be presumptuous again?He only heard an order, and two short knives were inserted into his thigh.

Raising his head, the sun seemed to be scalding hot, so hot that he just wanted to pass out.Cold sweat gushed out of his forehead, the pain was piercing, piercing to the core of his heart, he clenched his teeth tightly, with such strength that even a stone would be crushed.He refused to beg for mercy.

The injured man covered his bloody eyes and screamed, "I cut him!"

One knife, one knife, one knife... It hurts so much that I don't know how many times I have been tortured slowly.The opponent is very experienced in attacking, every time he cuts the knife, he is slow, but accurately provokes the nerve that hurts him the most.

He couldn't control his tear glands at all, his whole face was twisted in a pool of blood, he couldn't tell whether it was blood or tears on his face, but he still didn't make a sound.

Just when the big man thought he was powerless to resist, he leaned over and laughed at him for being overwhelmed.With all his strength, he stared at the eyes that were about to close, pointed at the big man's face, and spit out suddenly.The big man only felt pain on his face, and reached out to touch it, but he caught half of his teeth.

It turned out that Li Li was in too much pain and endured too much, even his teeth were broken.

"Stinky boy!" The big man felt insulted, and drew out his waist knife, about to finish him off.

Just when the big man was about to end his life with a knife, the old man who seemed to be frail and dying suddenly jumped out like the wind, and slapped the big man three feet away in an instant.And he couldn't stand it any longer, he could only hear the piercing sound of countless hidden weapons piercing through the air around him, the sound of explosions could be heard endlessly, and the sulfur breath impacted his weak body with the strong air waves, knocking him unconscious.

When he woke up, he found that he was already in a cave.He was lying on a simple slate bed, the wounds all over his body had been bandaged properly, and he was no longer bleeding.He reluctantly struggled a bit, and found that it was meaningless, the whole body, only the eyes could move.

Who brought him?And who treated the wound for him?Could it be...

He opened his eyes vigorously, and when the figure of the old man came into his field of vision from outside the cave, his thoughts were confirmed.

The old man kindly fed him a bowl of thick blue-green medicinal soup, and then moved his fingers like the wind to touch the big acupoints all over his body, then lifted him up, put his palms on his back, and healed his injuries.Li Li is like a puppet with no self-control ability, but there are many puzzles in his heart and he wants to ask for answers.His lips were trembling, and he wanted to speak, but he lifted it to his lips in one breath, and he couldn't make a sound.

The old man taught him the exercises every day and fed him medicine. It took him seven or eight days to raise him, and then he regained some vitality.Compared with the last time he fought against the villains, this time he was injured far more than that time, but unexpectedly he recovered very quickly.Is it related to the old man's exercise and healing?Or is it the miraculous effect of this blue medicinal soup?He tried to get up, and finally he was able to support the wall slowly and stood up.But not long after, he lost his breath and sat down on the stone bed in a decadent manner.

The old man went out alone in the morning and came back at noon with a lean chicken in his hand.The old man lit a pot of bland chicken soup, filled a bowl and brought it to Li Li's mouth.Li Li was relieved to see the old man acting as usual, but also blamed himself for being blind.I thought the old man was a victim, so he rescued him regardless of his life.Unexpectedly, Cai Ji has always been only himself. He took such a big risk and almost lost his life, but it turned out to be self-indulgent.Thinking of this, how could he hold back his breath, and when he tilted his head, he refused to drink the chicken soup.

Unexpectedly, the old man didn't care about his emotions, grabbed his jaw with one hand, and forced him to pour chicken soup into it.

Li Li was force-fed soup and had no time to digest it, so he coughed and choked, but he still didn't forget to mock the old man: "You are so capable, just leave by yourself, why bother with me."

The old man smiled strangely: "You blame me? I didn't ask you to save me. You were the one who pretended to be a hero."

Li Li snorted: "Go back to the bridge, go back to the bridge, please go ahead."

As soon as this sentence came out, the meaning of seeing off the guest was obvious.But the old man shrugged and grinned: "I discovered this cave first, first come, first served, this cave is my territory. You have no right to drive me away, if you want to go, you can go, if you can move .”

Li Li couldn't bear such a shock, touched a long branch beside him, and was about to leave by force.Unexpectedly, the branch was extremely fragile. As soon as Li Li stood up, the branch broke in the middle.Li Li couldn't stand upright, and fell to the ground with a thud, his eyes turned black, but his hands and feet didn't stop, and he tried his best to get up and try to walk again.

Seeing Li Li like this, the old man shook his head and sighed: "You stubborn boy, you are exactly the same as when I was young. That's all." The old man stepped forward to help him up, fearing that he would resist again, he stretched out his hand and tapped him again. Tanzhong acupoint, force him back to the bed.Li Li was so angry that his chest kept rising and falling, and he stared straight at the old man.The old man patted him on the shoulder, untied his acupoints casually, and said in a relatively gentle tone, "I know you are angry. Although you were out of justice, I will remember the grace of saving your life." .” After speaking, he faced Li Li and bowed deeply, “Please accept my bow.”

Looking at this old man with gray beard and hair, he seems to be five or sixty years old. Although his height is more than seven feet, he is slim and thin like a skeleton.Although he possesses excellent skills, he will not overwhelm others because of his seniority or ability, and his attitude is very sincere.Seeing that he was willing to bow down to apologize, Li Li was shocked, his heart softened, and he lowered his eyes and said: "I didn't do anything, you don't have to remember."

The old man looked at the sun outside the cave, pondered the time, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a few blue-green pills, and brought it to Li Li's mouth: "The time has come, take it quickly."

Although Li Li didn't know what it was, but seeing his kind face, he thought it must be a life-saving medicine, so he took it.As soon as I took it, I felt feverish in my stomach, burning like a fire after a while, and bumping like a loach in my stomach, my mental and physical strength increased instantly.Suddenly the old man said: "Calm your mind, take a deep breath, let the heat in your abdomen rise to the middle of your chest and try."

Li Li was puzzled, but he still followed his words.Strange to say, he calmed down and drove the heat in his abdomen. After a while, he felt that the heat in his abdomen merged into a heat wave, traveling up his internal organs, and within a quarter of an hour, he swam to his chest.He was extremely surprised, as soon as he opened his eyes, the heat dissipated, making his whole body warm and comfortable.

The old man watched his face for a long time, and took his pulse again, then he relaxed and said: "Your life is considered to be saved."

Li Li guessed that when he was in a coma, the old man had put in a lot of effort, and he was grateful and said, "Thank you."

The old man smiled faintly and shook his head.A ray of sunlight came in from the hole and shone on the old man's face.His old and pale but scarred face flickered under the sunlight.The light and shadow in the cave floated, and his thin frame was even more emaciated in the backlight.

"My name is Lu Di. Lu of the land, the enemy who kills the enemy."

Li Li was taken aback for a moment, the name was clearly familiar, and then he said, "Senior Lu."

Seeing that Li Li was not surprised, Lu Di couldn't help laughing: "Have you heard of my name?"

"I'm just a soldier from the countryside, but I've heard about the name of Lu Tianwang of the Tianwang Gang Fengrui camp." Li Li said, "However, it's just what I heard."

"What's your name? How old are you? Are you from Pingjiang City? What do you do at home?"

"Junior Li Li, 19 years old this year, is from Nianfei Village, Qihuang Mountain. His parents... his parents are squires in Nianfei Village. They have some land at home and have been living on land rent. In recent years, they have also contacted Nanyang friends to resell salt and cloth. business."

"..." Seeing that Li Li hesitated slightly when talking about his parents, Lu Di asked suspiciously, "Did something happen to your parents?"

Thinking of the tragic death of his parents, Li Li's eyes turned red again, and he suppressed the grief in his heart: "Yes. My parents and the whole village were killed by Tianren Cultists a few days ago."

"This..." Lu Di pondered for a moment, patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, and said, "The Tianren Sect belongs to Yanjin, and for no reason, how could it go deep into Zhaoyin's realm to trouble your small village?"

Li Li shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe it's because of Bi Ling."

When Lu Di heard the word Bi Ling, his brows were deeply furrowed: "Bi Ling? You are a small village that has nothing to do with the world, so what does it have to do with Bi Ling? I'm afraid it was fabricated by some good people. It's appalling. ?”

Li Lifu shook his head and said: "I don't know what Biling is. Even if I heard this word by chance, it was just heard in some rumors in Jianghu stories. How could we know that our family is actually because of this unreasonable Rumor has it, misfortune."

"The people of Tianren Sect slaughtered the whole village. If you don't know martial arts, how can you escape this calamity?"

Li Li recounted the story of himself and Xiao Yezi the night before the villagers were killed to Lu Die.After hearing this, Lu Di felt sorry for the tragic death of the villagers, and then smiled slightly when he heard Yang Yizhao's name: "It turns out that you were able to escape this disaster because you met Yang Yizhao. Even this kid has visited this place. Maybe there are some people in your village. Biling's clues are also unknown."

Li Li snorted coldly: "What kind of biling, I'm afraid it's just a false name. Such extraneous things have caused my family to die. Even if it is the elixir of Yaochi, it is also an ominous source of disaster in my opinion."

Hearing this, Lu Di seemed to recall the past, and sighed: "If I had been as transparent as you back then, I'm afraid I wouldn't have fallen to this point. I'm alone, with no one to rely on." After finishing speaking, he took out the A small bag of coarse cloth, carefully opened the small covering layer by layer, and finally revealed a simple piece of wood.The color of the wooden bar is dark, and the texture is very hard at first glance. The whole body is intricately carved and unique in shape. There are several falcon mouths on the edge, which seem to be part of a separate accessory.

Lu Di caressed the wooden stick for a long time, sighed, and said, "I joined the Fengrui Camp with my art at the age of 28, and I wanted to make a big splash. At that time, I was young and energetic, and I only wanted to be famous. I hope that one day, I can be a master in martial arts Dominate the world and become a grand master of a generation. The master of the martial arts hall, Sun Mengran, is friendly with me. Every time we talk about it, it is very speculative. Before long, we swore blood and became brothers of different surnames. Two young people, think of nothing, except to help In order to deal with daily affairs, we both hid in the martial arts lecture hall, delved into secret scriptures, practiced martial arts, and imagined the future."
