A hundred flavors of life

PS: I didn’t get home until after ten o’clock in the evening. I just finished writing. I apologize to the brothers who were waiting for the update.

Gao Qiu was really frightened by the series of killings. He cried so much that he couldn't help but burst into tears. He didn't show any respect for the lieutenant, which made Hua Twelve feel embarrassed to take action.

Well, he was ready to take the knife.

Pointing to the corpse on the ground, he said calmly:

"Now the problem can no longer be solved by calling me daddy. Things have come to this. Whether or not I kill you, Lin will not be tolerated by the court from now on. After all, he will end up fleeing the world with his family. You Yeah, you have suffered a loss in this life, but if there is another life, then you should have a good memory and remember not to offend the wrong person!"

He raised his sword and sent Gao Qiu on his way.

Unexpectedly, Gao Qiu, who has always been quick-witted, saw that his head was missing, and he cried and howled:

"Instructor Lin, you have made a great contribution, and you will definitely be rewarded by the court!"

Hua Twelve stopped his hands and said amusedly: "How do you say that?"

Gao Qiu saw that the sword was only half a foot away from his neck, and he was sweating profusely. He knew that life and death depended on the other person's thoughts. He glanced at the dead Lu Qian on the ground and said quickly:

"This thief, Lu Qian, is actually a secret agent of the Liao Kingdom. As an innate master, he lurked in our Song Dynasty to steal the secrets of our dynasty's military aircraft!"

"Today he sneaked into the White Tiger Festival Hall to secretly read official documents, and he was accidentally discovered by me. He wanted to kill me and silence him. My relatives, as well as the three worshipers, all died at the hands of this thief. Even my unfilial son was harmed by this thief. Fortunately, Commander, you arrived in time and killed the thief, thus saving my life. This is a great achievement!"

The corner of Hua Twelve's lips curled up slightly: "But those people all died under my knife, and those who disobey in the yamen are not just for free, right?"

Gao Qiu quickly said: "The sword is a new acquisition of the instructor. It was borrowed by me to play with. When the thief Lu Qian was exposed, he snatched it and used it to commit murder. Otherwise, with his methods, how could even the innate master be harmed?" Let three people worship you!"

Hua Twelve's eyes widened: "You said I relied on the power of the sword today?"

Gao Qiu broke into a cold sweat again: "The instructor is so brave, how can you compare with Lu Qian, the dog thief? Even if you are empty-handed, no one can be your opponent, otherwise how could you kill Lu Qian, the dog thief with a sword!"

Hua Twelve pondered for a moment: "Does this make sense?"

“With my official’s proof, who wouldn’t believe it!”

Hua Twelve suddenly sneered: "But there is another flaw, that is, how can I trust you not to betray me?"

Gao Qiu immediately raised his hand and said, "I can swear to God!"

Hua Twelve laughed: "Then you turn around and tell me, who in the court is so trustworthy, right? You used my words to silence me, but you made a good plan!"

He grasped it with his left hand, and a handful of the blood that was still flowing out of Lu Qian's broken arm flew into his hand. The next moment, it turned into a piece of blood ice. With a twist of his fingers, the blood ice shattered. He raised his hand casually, and there was a piece of blood ice. Thousands of thin ice hit Gao Qiu's body everywhere.

It was the life and death talisman he made with his blood.

The next moment, Gao Qiu felt itching all over his body, and he was about to cry out. However, Hua Twelve sealed his mute point with a finger, and no sound came out at all.

He wanted to reach out and scratch, but under the scattering of hundreds of life and death talismans, everywhere on his body, including his arms, felt itchy. He had no energy to scratch, but it saved him the pain of being bloody and disfigured.

Hua Twelve stood aside and looked at him coldly. When Gao Qiu was covered in sweat and incontinent, he struck with a palm force and suppressed the life and death talisman in the opponent's body.

Gao Qiu was like a catfish dying of thirst. He had no strength left in his body and lay there, breathing heavily with his mouth open and closed.

When he had had enough breath, he stood up and kowtowed to Hua Twelve.

Hua Twelve said calmly:

"The method I just used is called the Talisman of Life and Death. Once an attack occurs, the itching and severe pain will increase for ninety-nine and eighty-one days, and then gradually subside. After eighty-one days, it will increase again, and so on, and it will continue forever. Endlessly.”

After he finished speaking, he untied Gao Qiuya's acupuncture point with one finger and immediately begged:

"Teacher Lin, please spare me. I don't dare to do it anymore. As long as you give orders, Gao Qiu will obey them."

Hua Twelve nodded with satisfaction: "That's good. My palm can suppress the life and death talisman for three days without relapse. After three days, I will give you a pill that can suppress the life and death talisman for one year. You can take it for the next year." Just one and it’ll be fine.”

Gao Qiu was facing the ground, his face full of frustration at this time. He didn't know that if what Lin Chong said was true, he would be enslaved for life and never be freed again.

But he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he didn't know what the life and death talisman was. He was a high-ranking official in the current dynasty, and he held a high position. If it was poison, he could go to the imperial doctor to see it. If it was a witchcraft, he could go to his uncles and brothers to see it. .

If that doesn't work, there are still a few heavenly masters. If they can solve this thing, Lin Chong will definitely die a good death, so that he can express the bad anger in his heart today!

Hua Twelve seemed to have guessed his mentality and said with a smile:

"This life and death talisman is my exclusive secret technique. No one in the world can understand it. If you don't believe it, you can ask someone to take a look and see if they can save you!"

Gao Qiu said: "I don't dare!"

Hua Twelve said that no one could explain it, but in fact he was lying in his heart. When he used the life and death talisman in the past, he only used one or two pieces, or as many as three or four pieces. Just now he threw out a handful of hundreds of pieces. It was unprecedented. He was just afraid of this. There are capable people in the world who have broken the talisman of life and death.

You must know that the three old men he killed were all innate masters. This thing is rare in the 'Swordsman World'. In this world, there are only three of them. No matter how you look at it, this world is not like the 'Water Margin World' he knows. .

In addition, Hua Twelve also felt that the aura of heaven and earth in this world was extremely rich. In such a world, it was not impossible for someone to break the 'Life and Death Talisman'.

Thinking of this, Hua Twelve began to make insinuations. He did not ask about the general situation of the world or the court. If he asked about these things, there was no guarantee that he would not arouse Gao Qiu's suspicion. He only asked about the three old men.

He asked Gao Qiu to stand up first, and then asked, "Who were those three old men just now?"

Gao Qiu just stood up and quickly bowed and replied: "They are the three ministers from the Imperial Court's Enshrinement Department!"

"Department of Enshrinement, what kind of place is that?"

Gao Qiu was not surprised by Hua Twelve's question. He said truthfully:

"The Enshrinement Department is a secret government office. I only learned a little bit about it when I was a Taiwei. I only know that it was founded during the Taizong period. It is filled with masters who are innate and above. Their job is to protect the officials and important ministers in order to prevent Assassinations by charlatans and alien masters.”

Hua Twelve asked again: "The Taiwei is in a high position and knows more secrets than ordinary people. Is there any immortal figure in this world who can call the wind and rain, scatter beans to make soldiers, and control flying swords?"

Gao Qiu's eyes narrowed slightly, but his voice was normal:

"Yes, there are. Mr. Zhang Tianshi of Longhushan and Mr. Huayang of Maoshan are both immortal figures on land. There are also doctors like Chongxu and Mr. Yuanmiao who also have mysterious methods and are trusted by today's officials!"

Hua Twelve raised his eyebrows: "Have you ever seen them use magical powers with your own eyes?"

Gao Qiu nodded and said: "No one else has seen it with their own eyes. They have only seen the thunder method used by Mr. Yuanmiao!"

Hua Twelve had read Taoist classics and knew that Mr. Yuan Miao was Lin Lingsu, a Taoist priest in the Northern Song Dynasty.

This person also has mixed reviews among the Taoist sect, and he is a controversial figure. Some people say that he is an expert, with vast magical powers and proficient in thunder techniques, while others say that he is a magic stick and just a charlatan who knows some magic tricks.

Hua Twelve felt that this world was rich in aura, and there might not be people who could cultivate. Maybe Lin Lingsu was someone with real abilities. If he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely see it with his own eyes.

I wanted to ask something else, but then I thought about it. Now that I have convinced Gao Qiu, many things can be understood through other channels. I am not in a hurry. After all, if I say too much, I will be wrong. What's more, the surroundings are full of bloody aura, so I don't want to say more. Wait, just say:

"I'm going back first. You know what to do, right?"

Gao Qiu said hurriedly: "Just go ahead, the instructor. As I said before, it will be absolutely foolproof and the instructor will not be implicated!"

Hua Twelve nodded, picked up the knife and left. As for the reward that Gao Qiu had promised before, he did not even mention it. Since the other party was under his control, he must not say these things himself.

He left the Palace Commander's Mansion along the original route and met no one else along the way. He only saw the guards in front of the palace gate. It seemed that as he expected, Gao Qiu had sent away all the irrelevant people in order to frame him.

Hua Twelve was amused in his heart. Gao Qiu thought well. He mobilized others to frame him, but he didn't expect that he could fight back. This operation actually made him a wedding dress and helped him control the dynasty. convenient. He didn't kill Gao Qiu, not because of the benevolence of a woman, but because he thought of the hidden mission of systematic punishment. Now that we have arrived in the Water Margin world, this mission is either related to Liangshan, or it is related to the blossoming flowers and the burning fire, but it is prosperous and It was related to the decline of the Northern Song Dynasty at the end of the Song Dynasty, so if he could control the current Taiwei, the advantages would outweigh the disadvantages for himself, so he made a dangerous move and gave it a try.

However, even though he planted the talisman of life and death on Gao Qiu, Hua Twelve did not dare to be careless. When he walked to the street, he quickly returned home according to the memory he had when he came. He wanted to go back and take Lady Lin Chong away from home for two days. Observe in secret to make sure there is no change on Gao Qiu's side before talking about it later.

If things come to pass, then with Gao Qiu's help, he will surely rise to great heights in the army, and it will be very convenient for him to suppress bandits or rebel.

If things don't work out and Gao Qiu finally sells him, if there is any trouble, Hua Twelve will immediately leave the capital with his family and go straight to Liangshan. When the time comes, he will kill Wang Lun and not let Chao Gai and Song Jiang sit on their own. The first person in the position is happy. When he recruits troops and finds the right opportunity to rise up, he may not have the opportunity to dominate the world, slaughter the Jin Dynasty and destroy the Liao Dynasty, and save the country from hanging upside down.

In the Palace Commander's Mansion, as soon as Hua Twelve left, Gao Qiu collapsed to the ground like a deflated rubber ball. Knowing that he had finally escaped from the hell gate, he turned to look at the dead body of his adoptive son Gao Yanei on the ground. and the body of Lu Qian with a broken arm. He opened his mouth and started vomiting. It took him a long time to regain his strength until he could no longer vomit.

He got up, staggered out of the ear room, and then shouted:

"Someone come quickly, someone come quickly!"

When the Imperial Lieutenant was assassinated in the Palace Commander's Mansion, it immediately caused an uproar. Gao Qiu was immediately summoned to the palace for questioning. After much consideration, he still did not betray Lin Chong and reported the matter to the officials of the imperial court as he had said before.

He insisted that it was Lu Qian who did it, and Lu Qian was killed on the spot, so the matter was reduced to a minor matter. As for Lin Chong who killed Lu Qian, the official Zhao Ji did not care about the warriors and did not mention it.

Gao Qiu was a favored minister of the official family. He received some kind words to comfort Zhao Ji. The latter asked the Enshrinement Department to assign two more enshrinements to be on duty in the front department of the palace, and then he was allowed to go back and have a good rest.

After coming out of the palace, Gao Qiu hurriedly went to Tai Hospital, and then went to see Lin Lingsu and Xu Zhenren, asking them to help them take a look and see if they could tell what the life and death talisman was. .

He gritted his teeth in his heart, if he solved the life and death talisman, Lin Chong would die a bad death today.

But neither Xing Lin, the national player in Taiyuan Hospital, nor Lin and Xu, the real people, could see anything wrong with his body. The former gave him a prescription to soothe his nerves, and the latter two gave him a few Gao Qiu felt unhappy about the talisman for peace, so he could only accept it with thanks.

Returning to the Palace Commander's Mansion, Gao Qiu secretly thought about it, and went to the study to write to his uncles and brothers. Gao Lian, the magistrate of Gaotang Prefecture, sent a letter to Gaotang Prefecture and sent it to Gaotang Prefecture immediately. The letter did not say anything else. There must be no mistake in telling him to come to Bianliang quickly.

But Hua Twelve returned to Lin Chong's house and asked to open the courtyard door. The person who opened the door was the maid he had seen before. Behind the maid, a young female family member came out to welcome him.

Hua Twelve looked at the woman's appearance and was suddenly startled: "Sister Zu Xian? Or Nie Xiaoqian?"

Before the female family member could say anything, the maidservant became displeased and said, "It's unreasonable for me, officials. Just go and drink wine. Why are you teasing your own wife about a prostitute?"

The woman who looked the same as Nie Xiaoqian frowned slightly and said to the maid: "Jin'er, don't act like a big or small person in front of officials. Officials have always been modest, but that's not why you are so presumptuous!"

Jin'er immediately bowed to Hua Twelve aggrievedly: "Jin'er was wrong, please punish me!"

At this time, Hua Twelve didn't know the identities of these two people. That 'Nie Xiaoqian' must be Lin Chong's wife Zhang Zhenniang, and this maid is her personal maid Jin'er. These are all characters in the original book, but this Mrs. Lin’s appearance, well, is very pleasing!

Hua Twelve has not yet received the memory of the system. With a sweep of his ears, all the movements in the three rooms fell into his ears. There were only three of them in this private courtyard, but he still said:

"It was my fault just now. It's not my fault that Jin'er defended my wife. I just want to ask you, apart from the two of you, is there anyone else in your family?"

After asking in one sentence, Zhang Zhenniang's face suddenly changed color, while Jin'er said angrily:

"How can an official say something that slanders his wife's innocence!"

Zhang Zhenniang was already in tears at this time: "What happened in Gao Yanei is afraid that it will cause a grudge in the hearts of the officials. Now I can only prove my innocence by dying. That's all. You and I can be husband and wife again in the next life."

After she finished speaking, she bumped into the courtyard wall.

How could Hua Twelve let her die like this? He quickly stepped forward and stood in front of her. Suddenly the warm fragrance of soft jade fell into his arms, and the latter burst into tears:

"Why are you here to save me? Since the officials don't trust me, why don't you just let me die?"

Hua Twelve was so worried. He also realized that there was an ambiguity in what he just said. Thinking that in the original plot, Lu Qian drove Lin Chong away in the name of drinking, and it should have happened a few days ago that Gao Yanei wanted to do something wrong. He suddenly knew that this There was a misunderstanding.

He immediately explained: "I just asked if my father-in-law is here, but you misunderstood!"

Zhang Zhenniang didn't believe it, she raised her head and looked at Hua Twelve with tearful eyes: "You are so good, why are you asking about daddy?"

Hua Twelve whispered: "I won't hide it from you. Today, Gao Yanei wanted to harm me, but I killed him with one knife. Although he made arrangements, he may cause trouble. Go and clean up Xinrou, and go back to pick up your father-in-law. First, Go to the vegetable garden of Daxiangguo Temple outside the Suanzao Gate and take shelter with my good friend!"

Zhang Zhenniang changed her face in shock, and finally understood that it was a misunderstanding. She quickly called Jin'er into the room, packed some valuable things, tied them into packages, and the three of them locked the courtyard door and hurried to Lin Chong's father-in-law Zhang's home.

Zhang Zhenniang's mother passed away long ago, and there is only one old father in the family, who also serves as a gun and stick instructor in the Forbidden Army.

When the three of them arrived, Coach Zhang was practicing his gun and stick at home. When he saw his uncle coming back with his daughter, he was about to go out to sell wine, saying he wanted to have a good drink.

Hua Twelve grabbed Coach Zhang and whispered about killing Gao Yanei.

Coach Zhang immediately knew the big deal and said quickly:

"How can we run away like this? I'm going to get some horses. Let's leave Bianliang as soon as possible!"

Hua Twelve said: "My father-in-law, please rest assured for the time being. I have also made arrangements for today's matter. It may not necessarily be found out. Let's go to my good friend's place to stay for a few days. If there is any trouble, it will not be too late to run away, horses and so on." We’ll talk about it later. If we go out on horseback now, the target is too big. If someone we know sees us, our whereabouts will be revealed. We can make plans after we settle down first!”

After saying that, he ignored his father-in-law's struggle and left.

Naturally, Hua Twelve didn't know the way. He didn't know which one was Suizaomen. He just read a book and knew about this place. So he asked two women to walk in front, saying that it was to hide people's eyes. The three of them didn't understand. Why were they women? It would have been possible to hide the truth from others in the past, but now it is extremely urgent and no one is in the mood to ask about this reason.

When we arrived at the Zizao Gate, we went further north past the Yue Temple and saw a vegetable garden surrounded by a low wall. There were three adobe Zen houses in the vegetable garden.

Several people walked around the door and went in. Before they could be greeted, they saw a tall, burly, three-round and four-thick monk with thick eyebrows and round eyes walking out of an earthen house. When they saw Hua Twelve, they immediately showed joy:

"Why are you here, brother?"

After speaking, he saw Zhang Zhenniang again and hurriedly greeted him. Hua Twelve knew that this person was Lu Zhishen, so he introduced his father-in-law to him. After the two parties were polite, he did not hide it and told the matter in a low voice.

Instructor Zhang was still afraid that others would dislike him and bring trouble to his family. Unexpectedly, the great monk slapped his bald head and laughed:

"Happiness, my Yuan Dao brother, you are not happy, but you don't want to be so bloody. Why didn't you ask me to kill that bird boy together? You must drink to your heart's content today and never stop getting drunk!"

Teacher Zhang had a headache for a while, thinking that all the gangsters his son-in-law knew, he quickly said: "The great monk is whispering, and if anyone listens to it, it will be a big disaster!"

Hua Twelve said his purpose was to take shelter here.

Lu Zhishen agreed immediately, and also said that he would give up the Zen room where he lived, and he would sleep in the utility room.

How can Hua Twelve do it? The family started to clean up the two mud houses where debris was piled up, and stayed here at night.

Lu Zhishen also knew that what Hua Twelve had done was not trivial. He went out to find several naughty apprentices such as Zhang San, the street rat, Li Si, the grass snake, and asked them to go to the Palace Commander's Mansion and Lin Chong's house to watch. If there was any movement, call them immediately. Return.

In the evening, Hua Twelve and Coach Zhang had a few bowls of wine with Lu Zhishen, but they didn't drink much.

In the middle of the night, Hua Twelve went out of the vegetable garden by himself. He always thought that it was not safe to rely on the life and death talisman alone. He planned to go to the mass graves to dig up some corpse insects and bring them back, and use the methods of the Sun and Moon God Sect to Gao Qiu. superior.

In the past, when Hua Twelve used corpse bugs, he would let others do it. Tonight, he did it on his own and dug up several graves. Not to mention the unbearable smell of corpses, the scene that caught his eyes was more horrifying than any horror movie. If it weren't for his character Being tough may leave a psychological shadow.

After getting the corpse bug, he was covered in a stench. He didn't go back to the vegetable garden. He washed himself in the moat, then used Qinggong to enter the city. He found a medicine shop and sneaked in, and started rubbing pills with his hands.

In addition to the Three Corpse Brain Pills, he also made a lot of other things that night. He was busy until it was almost five o'clock before he returned to the vegetable garden.

After hiding in the vegetable garden for two days, he drank wine, ate meat, and competed in martial arts with Lu Da and his father-in-law every day. Zhang San and Li Si reported back every day that nothing happened at Coach Lin's house, and everything was normal at the palace commander's house.

On the third day, Hua Twelve entered the city alone and went to the Palace Commander's Mansion.
