The autumn wind rises and the dragon sings

Chapter 176 Storytelling

In the early morning of the next day, Ling Wei was planning to lead everyone to a nearby village to do good deeds as usual. At this time, the Yin Corpse Man entered with a man dressed in blue and white robes, looking like a scholar.

Shadow Corpse Man: "Boss, this person wants to chat with you."

Ling Wei looked at the complete stranger in front of him in puzzlement and asked: "Sir, may I, may I know you?"

The visitor nodded slightly and saluted, and explained: "Gang leader, I have heard of you for thousands of years. Recently, there is a rumor in the martial arts that under the leadership of the new gang leader, the sin pit of the past that was not evil has been turned to good, and he has repeatedly helped neighboring villages, paved bridges and roads. , so I came here today to pay my respects to the gang leader."

Ling Wei scratched his head in embarrassment: "Hahaha, I'm not as good as you said!" Wenren Qianqiu smiled and said: "The gang leader is too humble. He has personally seen the brand new atmosphere of the sin pit, and has the talent of the Central Plains Yue to talk about it. With the desireless Prime Minister, I believe that the future of the Good Guys Gang will be brighter."

Tan Wuyu, who was mentioned, looked calm and smiled modestly: "Mr. Wenren, you are ridiculous. If you can reduce the number of villains, you will increase the power of justice. If you don't give up, you can stay in the gang temporarily." Come as a guest to teach."

When Wenren Qianqiu heard this, he declined politely: "Hahaha! There are many common people in the world, so I must politely decline Mr. Tan's invitation."

Tan Wuyu smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, sir, you can come here if you have time. We sincerely welcome you." Ling Wei said with a frank and enthusiastic face: "Yes, yes! If you have time, come here to make tea and chat. .”

Wenren Qianqiu bowed and said goodbye: "I appreciate the kindness of the gang leader and Mr. Tan, please."

Tan Wuyu bowed and returned the greeting: "Please."

Ling Wei: "Go along, go along!"

Wenren Qianqiu was about to leave when a white shadow came towards him. The young man's slightly pale and youthful face fell into his eyes, and then he met those dark eyes.

Yi Ruchen looked up and down calmly. Although he couldn't see his face, he had already thought about it in his heart. He bowed slightly and saluted: "I'm sorry, I don't know if there are guests here. Will it disturb the conversation between this gentleman and the gang leader? "

"It doesn't matter, I've finished talking to the gang leader."

Wenren Qianqiu suppressed the emotions in his eyes and smiled nonchalantly. Yi Ruchen nodded when he heard the words, and then turned sideways to let someone pass by. However, when someone walked to the side, he seemed to ask unintentionally: "Young knight, look You have a very handsome appearance, I wonder what you call the young hero?"

"Wandering with no return, Yi Ruchen." Yi Ruchen tilted his head slightly and replied politely: "I have been in a difficult situation down there not long ago. Sir, I feel that it is normal to face life."

"The young hero seems to have an extraordinary temperament, and I guess he is also a capable person."

"Sir, that's ridiculous. I'm just an ordinary traveler who came to a miserable place to enjoy the mountains and rivers. I can't be considered a capable person." Yi Ruchen smiled calmly, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: "What's going on here?" Do people like to brag like this?This face doesn't look like a master at all, does it?

Wenren Qianqiu looked at the young man's flawless expression and knew that he couldn't detect anything, so he said a few polite words and left.

After the person walked away, Yi Ruchen's smile faded slightly and she let out a soft "tsk" in her heart. Then she walked towards Ling Wei, raised her hands and saluted: "I've met the gang leader."

"Hey, hey, there are others over here." Po Xuanqi, who was standing aside, said unhappily. Yi Ruchen smiled good-naturedly, and then saluted to him and Tan Wuyu: "I've seen the great military advisor, Second Military Division.”

"Senior, you are polite." Tan Wuyu bowed and returned the greeting, while Po Xuanqi crossed his arms and was very satisfied with it: "That's pretty much it."

"Well, well, everyone who comes here are brothers, so there is no need to be so polite." Ling Wei waved his hands awkwardly, obviously not used to such a polite scene. Po Xuanqi next to him snorted, with an unhappy look on his face: "Boss, don't speak for this new third child. He gets up the latest every morning during the morning meeting, and he has no intention of correcting himself. This is not allowed in our "good guy gang", so …”

As he talked, he started a long talk. Yi Ruchen was speechless in his heart. The smile on his face was still there, but his mind had long been elsewhere.

The person he met just now, if his feeling was correct, was probably the person who had disturbed him to rest in the woods before and was then given a lesson by him.Although I don’t know whether it’s good or bad, but appearing in the “Good Guys Gang” at this time is probably because of the “Sky-shaking Power” in Ling Wei’s hand, but with that Taoist priest...

After the long speech, Yi Ruchen immediately came back to his senses and showed a humbly accepting expression. Only then did Po Xuanqi, whose vanity was satisfied, stop. Ling Wei also hurriedly asked people to set off to do good deeds, so as not to do it again. It made me feel dizzy.

On the way out, Yi Ruchen calmly came to Tan Wuyu and reminded him softly: "In these troubled times, Taoist priests need to pay more attention."

After saying that, he calmly returned to his original position, leaving Tan Wuyu standing there, thinking about the meaning of his words.

Remnant forest.

Bo Hanbo, who came here to confirm the move of the Five Disableds, got the answer he least wanted to know from the owner of the residual forest, and because he had been severely injured when he went to compete with Huanyu Qizang, if he hadn't been rescued in time, he might have really died. He is about to become a dead soul under the sword.

So under Xifeng's stern instructions, Bo Hanbo had no choice but to stay in the residual forest to recuperate and could not go anywhere.

After Bo Hanbo settled down, Xifeng was worried about Yan Guiren who was missing. After thanking the owner of the residual forest, he left in a hurry, making Bo Hanbo complain with jealousy again.

After staying in the residual forest for a few days, Bo Hanbo realized belatedly that his old friend had disappeared. He originally thought he was taking care of Huanyu Qizang, so he went to the room to look for it, and asked Huanyu Qizang by the way. Apologize for my previous recklessness.

As a result, when they arrived at the room, they only saw Zilan standing guard in front of the bed. She couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you see Xiaochan?"

"Hmm..." Zilan rubbed her eyes, cheered up, and handed over a piece of letter paper: "The forest owner wrote a letter saying that he went out to do something. Please don't worry, he will come back after finishing the matter."

"Why didn't I receive it? My old friend didn't do it right..." Bo Hanbo took the letter, looked at the little girl in front of him who could hardly open his eyes, clicked his tongue a few times, opened the letter and read it.

The content was similar to what Zilan said, and it was indeed the handwriting of an old friend. When he saw the letter, he also told others not to let others know about it. After asking, he learned that Shentu Dongliu had read the letter and he was the last one to know. Hanbo returned the letter and looked at Zilan burning it with sad eyes.

"Sorry, I haven't slept well recently and my memory is bad, so I forgot to tell you, Mr. Lu Wang." Zilan smiled apologetically, and then yawned.

"It's nothing, nothing. But little girl, don't just guard it by yourself. You can switch shifts with Dongliu and have a good rest." Bo Hanbo looked at the tiredness in Zilan's eyes and couldn't help but persuade him.

Zi Lan shook her head: "That big brother also has things to do, and he has to take care of the house and patrol, but it's hard work. I don't know anything, but of course I have to take good care of the forest owner's brother so that the forest owner can feel at ease outside. work."

"Well, anyway, you should have a good rest and don't tire yourself out." Bo Hanbo, who had been lying down to recover from his injuries and decided to leave now, felt inexplicably guilty after hearing this, but he still said: "By the way, my injury has been... …”

"The internal injuries still need to be rested. Mr. Lu Wang, you don't have to come to help. The remaining forest only needs big brother and me. Mr. Lu Wang, you just need to take good care of yourself." Zi Lan comforted with a smile, and her gentle look instantly blocked Bo Hanbo. The words that will be spoken.

When he was hesitating, he saw the little girl's expression darkened and she murmured to herself: "It would be great if Ah Feng was here. I can't do anything but let my elder brother work hard alone."

Bo Hanbo felt...it was quite good to stay here. His old friend was gone now, so there had to be someone who could protect the remaining forest.

So Bo Hanbo gave up the idea of ​​going out and told Zi Lan to go rest first. He and Shen Tu Dongliu would change shifts and then let Shen Tu Dongliu take care of him. Zi Lan agreed with a smile.

After the others left, Huanyu Qizang, who had been unconscious, opened his eyes, looked at Zilan with an innocent smile, and sneered: "Good acting skills."

"Really? Thanks for the compliment."

Zilan's smile did not change, she turned around and poured a glass of warm water, handing it to her face thoughtfully: "Would you like some water?"

Seeing that the person didn't move, he looked stunned. He put the cup aside, carefully helped the person up, put the cup to his lips, and said kindly: "Ah~"

Huanyu Qizang: "..."

He took a deep breath to adjust his emotions before speaking calmly: "When will you untie my acupuncture points?"

"Well, it's not time yet." Seeing that the other party refused to drink, Zilan put the cup back and said while putting it away: "And your injury is not healed yet. If you go out like this, the forest owner will be worried."

"The hatred is not his alone. I am also a member of the Huangfu family and his elder brother. I should bear most of the responsibility. And..." Huanyu Qizang looked at Zilan who was listening attentively and said calmly: " You also know that the most taboo thing about revenge is hesitation, and Xiaochan is a passionate person, so this kind of thing is not suitable for him."

"So, this is the concern of the elder brother for the younger brother?" Zilan narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled kindly: "Then as the elder brother, I should be able to understand the younger brother's mood of not wanting to involve others anymore. After all, one Ah Feng has been sacrificed. If it is the only one, Something happened to a relative, so Xiaochan will collapse."

Huanyu Qizang was silent for a moment, looking at the girl's clear eyes without any darkness. He subconsciously wanted to shake his fan and think, but because his acupuncture points were touched, he gave up: "That young hero Feng is still alive."

"No." Zilan shook her head slightly, but her smile remained: "To be precise, Ah Feng is indeed 'dead'. "

"But he doesn't have to die." The girl in front of her has this ability, unless...

"What do you want to do?"

Zilan smiled slightly and said in a gentle tone: "We didn't think about anything."

With calm eyes and a calm expression, it can be seen that the girl in front of him is not lying, and is even very honest. But it is just like this that makes Huanyu Qizang feel more and more troublesome.

"You just said it's not time yet, does that mean you will let me leave?"

"Yes."

"Why not now?"

"Because destiny does not allow it."

"Destiny?" Huanyu Qizang couldn't help but sneer. "People who don't believe in fate can always live a wonderful life, but..." The topic changed, and his tone became a little colder: "Not believing in fate doesn't mean you can't follow the rules."

"Breaking the rules is a very tempting option." Huanyu Qizang's voice rose slightly, and then became calmer: "But it is also very deadly."

Zilan looked up and smiled: "There have been examples of successful rule breaking."

"Oh? Then what?"

"I replaced it."

Zilan sighed slightly sadly, then heard the sound of footsteps, walked over and laid the person flat on the bed again, her tone suddenly changed to a playful tone: "Take good care of yourself, don't let the forest master worry."

Huanyu Qizang didn't answer, he just closed his eyes and pretended to be unconscious.

Good guys gang.

"The purpose of creating the Good People Gang is to allow others to get reasonable and useful help, and the person who came up with such a good idea is our new boss Ling Wei..."

Po Xuanqi's rainbow fart speech three times a day was as boring as ever. Yi Ruchen, who was carrying a rectangular wooden box, stood behind Ling Wei, automatically ignoring the movement outside while instructing Ling Wei to practice calligraphy, and wrote "Abba" The words "Happy Birthday" were taught dozens of times.

Tan Wuyu stood aside with a smile, and thoughtfully poured tea for Ling Wei who was sweating profusely from training. Yin Zhi and Ye Tu Ling were watching not far away, looking drowsy.

"Brother, look, this is what I wrote." Ling Wei raised the white paper full of writing and looked at the people next to him expectantly. Yi Ruchen took it and looked at it carefully. The handwriting was better than before. The other one looked much better and looked neater, so he nodded: "Yes, that's it for today. Gang leader, you can rest now."

"It's so early today, wouldn't it be boring later?" Ling Wei bit his brush and lay on the table, a little uninterested. Ye Tuling trotted over and suggested, "How about the two of us go to the public pavilion to watch If there are any interesting things, I can tell you, the gang leader, when I come back, so it won’t be too boring.”

Yi Ruchen's mind moved and she couldn't help but look up. Ling Wei was a little happy when he heard this and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, you must remember to go early and come back early!"

"Copy that, let's go, two boys!" Ye Tuling called to the corpse people beside him to leave together. When he turned around, he saw the silent Yi Ruchen looking in this direction, with a smile of unknown meaning at the corner of his mouth, and he felt in his heart With a jolt, he immediately quickened his pace.

After the two left, the three people left in the room were speechless. Ling Wei looked at this and then at that. Sensing that the atmosphere was getting awkward, he couldn't help but ask: "Um, Tan Wuyu, brother, it's okay now." Things, which one of you can tell a story to pass the time?"

Tan Wuyu smiled, shook his head and said in shame: "My eloquence is not good, and the stories I tell are dry and tasteless. It's better to change the gang leader. For example, this erudite and talented senior Yi Ruchen."

Ling Wei turned his expectant eyes in another direction. Yi Ruchen was speechless, but showed humility: "The erudition and talent are not as good as the Second Military Advisor who is known as the "Moon Talent", and besides, I'm not very good at telling stories. "

"It's okay, it's okay, just talk about it casually."

"Uh, okay." Sensing Ling Wei's very expectant mood, Yi Ruchen couldn't refuse anymore, but he really didn't know how to tell stories. His brother talked to him most about court affairs. Lan's method of making him fall asleep was the sound of the piano. As for that guy...

"Acupuncture can help you fall asleep quickly."

Not to mention it, let’s ask for help from the light ball.

The ball of light quickly found a story for him, but the content... why was it that kind of book? !And there are even pictures!

[Yunfei likes this kind of book very much. She often says that the content is rich and interesting, and she asked me to find more books for her (*/＼*)]
……

Yi Ruchen didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only let Guangqiu deal with all these books. As for Yunfei... let's talk about it when we have a chance.

The light ball was unreliable, so Yi Ruchen had no choice but to try to adapt his own experience and tell it to Ling Wei as a story.

"Once upon a time, there was a child. He was in the gate of hell as soon as he was born. The doctors who had seen him all came to the conclusion that the child would not survive the next morning, and he would die before dawn. But he was still alive. The next day, I saw the sun at dawn."

"Is it through perseverance?" Ling Wei asked curiously.

Yi Ruchen shook his head gently: "No, it was relying on his brother. His brother spent half of his life to extend the life of this child who should have died in the darkness, but this was only temporary, and the haze of death was always there. Being around that child will drag that child into hell at any time.”

"Time passed day by day, and five years passed in the blink of an eye. The child lived to be five years old with difficulty, but his vitality became weaker and weaker. Even if he could walk and play like an ordinary person, he still could not hide the fact that he was about to die. Fact. Everyone is trying to persuade the child’s brother to give up. After all, dying at an ignorant age is also a kind of happiness. "

Ling Wei said seriously: "His brother will definitely not give up. Relatives will never give up on their relatives!"

"Yes." Yi Ruchen couldn't help but feel a little dazed, and then sighed: "So in order to help his relatives get rid of their sick and weak bodies and live like normal people, he chose to sacrifice the lives of one hundred thousand people. Exchange your life to gain that child’s life.”

As soon as these words came out, Ling Wei was stunned. Tan Wuyu frowned slightly, but said: "The journey against heaven has an extraordinary price. If you are not careful, you will be wiped out together."

"What the Taoist said is right, and even if it succeeds, all the grievances of 10 people will be on that child, and he will be entangled in it for the rest of his life. Naturally, the child's brother will not let this happen, so he plans to use the secret to The technique draws all the resentment to himself, but in this way, the most crucial thing is missing from the sacrifice."

Tan Wuyu, who had already guessed it, couldn't help but sigh: "The souls of relatives."

Yi Ruchen was a little surprised, but thinking that some sacrifices were almost the same, he continued: "Yes, in order to ensure that the sacrifices are foolproof, the souls of relatives must be used to make the formation, but my brother has decided to draw resentment, so naturally he cannot He will do the formation again, so...he decided not to refuse the beauties who were rewarded."

"Why?" The young Ling Wei looked confused. Tan Wuyu, who understood the meaning of the words, said nothing more. He just looked at Yi Ruchen's calm face and asked, "So, was the sacrifice successful? ?”

"No." Yi Ruchen shook his head slightly, his eyes dim: "To be precise, there is no chance to implement it."

Ling Wei asked curiously: "Why?"

"because……"

"Outside the number, outside the number, the great generation of the martial arts!"

Just when the critical point was reached, the corpse man and Karma Tuling hurried in, interrupting the unfinished story.

Ling Wei, who was already fascinated, frowned unhappily and asked, "What's wrong?"

The Yin Corpse Man gasped and said, "When I went to the public pavilion with Yitu just now, I saw the notice posted by Yiliu." Ling Wei's expression softened slightly and he asked curiously: "What is it written on?"

The Yin Corpse Man replied: "It's the Yiliu Pope Beichen Yuanhuang who wants to have an independent relationship with Su Huanzhen!"

"This is happening!" Tan Wuyu was surprised when he heard the words, and then he thought of Yi Ruchen's previous reminder and said to Ling Wei: "Gang leader, Tan Wuyu will leave for a few days to find out about this matter."

Ling Wei naturally agreed, and also warned: "Well, if you need help from the brothers in the gang, you must ask!" Tan Wuyu bowed and thanked: "Thank you, gang leader."

The Yin Corpse Man asked loudly: "Boss! Su Huanzhen is also our leader. Can we go back to Liuli Fairyland with Tan Wuyu?" Ling Wei nodded: "Okay! But you must be careful. , call someone to report the situation at any time.”

Ye Tuling patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, boss, we will use SNG to connect live to let you know the latest news." Ling Wei nodded again: "That's enough, you go quickly!"

Seeing the three people leaving in a hurry, Yi Ruchen was a little helpless. It seemed that his departure time had to be postponed, but if the protagonist wanted to duel with someone, he would be injured, right?The protagonist in a weak state will be easier to attack...

"Brother, you haven't finished speaking just now. Why?" After recovering from the news just now, Ling Wei couldn't wait to ask. Yi Ruchen was stunned for a moment and said calmly: "Because, When the child was seven years old, he was knocked unconscious by his most trusted attendant and sent to the hands of a Taoist priest. He was told that his elder brother had sent him here for treatment, and that he would be reunited with his elder brother after he recovered."

"It must be a lie, that Taoist priest must be a bad person!" Ling Wei said angrily, and then curiously asked: "Then what?"

"Then?" Yi Ruchen lowered his eyes and said with a faint smile, "Then the child never appeared again."

Ling Wei blinked and asked in confusion: "No more?"

"No, that's the ending of this story. No one was sacrificed and no one was hurt. It's a good ending."

"That's not good. Well, that kid's brother must be very worried, just like my father would be worried about me if I disappeared suddenly. But I left a letter when I came out, but the kid didn't leave anything." Ling Wei He said very seriously. Listening to these innocent remarks, Yi Ruchen couldn't help but smile: "But if the child goes back, the sacrifice will be started, and his brother will be held forever by the resentment of 10 people for saving him. Entanglement.”

"B-but..." Ling Wei wanted to retort, but because he was too young, he didn't know what to say.

"Okay, the story is over. Let's continue practicing calligraphy, leader. I'll bring over a pot of tea." Yi Ruchen stopped continuing the topic, picked up the teapot on the table, turned around and walked out.

[Little Achen...] Seeing that Yi Ruchen was in a low mood, Guangqiu tried to cheer up the atmosphere: [By the way, what does Little Achen's brother do? He sounds very powerful. ]
I'm not very clear about this. My brother has never told me about his position. I only heard that my brother's political opponents once said that he was serving as a patricide.

[It’s okay to kill your father to serve. Xiao Aze also kills his father to serve. This is normal. ] Guangqiu comforted him with a smile.

Yi Ruchen:? ? ?

Then he glanced at the light ball and was speechless: Don't make such boring jokes.

[Okay, okay, I forgot, little Ashen, you don’t like hearing thisㄟ(▔,▔)ㄏ]
Yi Ruchen: (￢_￢)
　It seems that I accidentally wrote too much...
