The elongated figure walked in slowly, step by step.He held a long sword in his hand and a five-stone hard bow on his shoulder. Who else could it be if it wasn't Channing.

"Li Ke, you will still have today." Qian Ning said harshly.

After Li Ke confirmed that Qian Ning was the one who assassinated him, Lu showed a trace of disdain, "I really didn't expect this to happen."

"If I had known today, why would I have done it in the first place?" Qian Ning also showed a smile, but his smile was a little complacent, and also a little indifferent.

"Chan Ning, you can't choose your birth, you can't choose your future, but you can choose your death, this is a bit of consolation for you." Li Ke looked at Qian Ning's smiling face with disdain Said.

"Huh? I can choose my own death?" Channing laughed heartily, his laughter was a little crazy, "You are talking about yourself? Do you think there is still a chance of escape today?"

"Throw away your bow and arrow, throw away your flying needle, if you are a man, you can fight with me with the sword in your hand. You only use hidden weapons to hurt people, and you dare not face the enemy. What face do you have to say such big words? .” Li Ke said sarcastically in a cold tone.

"Okay, I will convince you to death." Enraged by Li Ke, Qian Ning threw the hard bow on his body aside, and threw all the flying needles from his sleeve into the pile of materials, watching Li Ke quietly .

The same is true for Li Ke, holding Yuan Hong tightly with his right hand, leaning his sword on the ground, and staring intently at Qian Ning on the opposite side.

Qian Ning could see from Li Ke's posture that he was not simple, because only masters of swordsmanship would hold the sword so casually.To them, the sword is just a sharp weapon for killing, and it doesn't matter how you hold it, as long as it can kill.

And Li Ke had seen Qian Ning's martial arts in the grove, so he didn't dare to take him lightly.

In this way, neither of the two people made a move, and they looked at each other.Gradually, as time passed, Qian Ning became anxious.Because, if this delay continues, when Li Ke's guards find this place, not only will he not be able to kill Li Ke, but he will also have to confess his life here.However, it was useless for him to be anxious.There is no flaw in Li Ke's body, he doesn't know how to start.

Li Ke was also not relaxed. Since Qian Ning appeared, his figure has not moved.He adjusted his breath again and again to the luck formula that Liu Wen had passed on to him to stabilize his heartbeat.Because, he knew that once Qian Ning seized the opportunity, he would kill him, and he would definitely fall into a passive position.Only by delaying his time in this way, the longer the time, the more active he will be, and the more passive Channing will be.

Qian Ning finally made a move. He didn't really want to make a move, but he couldn't help it.Because, if this continues, he won't have enough time to assassinate Li Ke.He can't wait, and he can't afford to wait.

Qian Ning's sword was like lightning, fast and accurate, piercing Li Ke's throat.Li Ke would advance if he didn't retreat, and when Qian Ning's long sword was one foot away from him, he suddenly drew his sword.Seeing a flash of sword light, Yuan Hong hit Qian Ning's long sword with a cold air, causing his sword to deflect far away.And Li Ke's left hand was not idle, he followed the trend and hit Qian Ning's throat directly.

It was the first time for Qian Ning to see the combination of boxing and sword fighting, and it was difficult to deal with it for a while, and was forced by Li Ke to take two steps back.Li Ke took the opportunity to go up, and Yuan Hong resigned to Qian Ning's throat with a chill like a dragon out of the water.Qian Ning did not expect that Li Ke's counterattack would be so fast. He wanted to stop but it was too late, and it was too late to retreat.So, with a hard heart, he no longer cared about Li Ke's long sword, and swung the sword towards Li Ke's chest.I want to die with Li Ke.

Li Ke blocked Qian Ning's long sword with his left hand, and the long sword pierced his left arm, bleeding a lot, but his sword edge did not stop, and still stabbed at Qian Ning.

Qian Ning knew that he couldn't dodge the sword, so he closed his eyes unwillingly, but at this moment his heart relaxed, and suddenly he felt that death was a kind of relief for him.It's been a long time since he's been this calm, and he hasn't been this relaxed for a long time.

But Qian Ning waited for a long time, but he didn't see the long sword piercing his throat. He opened his eyes and saw that the long sword was in Li Ke's hand, and the blade stopped an inch away from his throat.

Li Ke didn't speak, and Qian Ning was even more silent. Time seemed to freeze, fixing the two of them at this moment.

After a while, Qian Ning said wearily, "Why didn't you kill me?"

Li Ke put Yuan Hong back into the sheath, without looking at Qian Ning, he left without saying a word, "Yuan Hong, the ten famous swords, are not for killing a dog."

"You." Qian Ning said angrily, "Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated. I, Qian Ning, was defeated by you twice. Soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have quelled civil strife and fought Turks, you have no right to humiliate me."

"Yes, that was Zeng Jin, not now." Li Ke turned around and said, he was not afraid of Qian Ning's attack behind his back.Because, he understood Channing, "Now, you are just a dog, a dog without a master."

Li Ke said loudly, "When Li Jiancheng was around, you were a dog by his side. At that time, you relied on him to show off your power. Now, when he is dead, you have become a lost dog. Worse than life."

Li Ke himself said, "Do you think you are avenging him? No, you are trying to find a balance for yourself. You have changed from a showy dog ​​to a bereaved dog. You are not reconciled. So, you want to prove your ability. You are always thinking of revenge."

"Are you a man? You still have the face to say that you are a soldier of the Tang Dynasty." Li Ke said angrily, "Where were you when the Turkic invaders slaughtered the people of the Tang Dynasty? The Turks invaded and robbed the food and Where were you when you were a woman?" Li Ke took a few steps forward and scolded even louder, "Where are you? You are thinking about your revenge and your past in some shabby huts where even dogs don't live. the glory of thinking about your loss of money and status."

"It's not like this, it's not like this." Qian Ning was a little bit broken by Li Ke's reprimand, and he retorted vigorously, "I'm avenging the prince, I'm doing what an assassin would do, just like Yu Rang, just Like Jing Ke."

"Are you an assassin?" Li Ke asked back, "When the country is in crisis, you don't want to kill the enemy on the battlefield. You only want to assassinate the king of a country for your own selfish desires. You want to create chaos in this country and let foreigners take advantage of it. In the end , Let them pick up the butcher knife and slaughter the people of their own country, are you worthy to be an assassin? Are assassins doing like you? You are only worthy of a dog."

Li Ke saw Qian Ning's ashen face, and said the words from his mouth again, "Once upon a time, you were a wolf, the wolf you made Turks afraid of, and you were a warrior. But, you didn't want to continue to be you You wolf, use your ferocity to protect the people of Datang. You chose to be a dog, follow behind your master, and show off your might. Then, apart from money and power, the only blood in your heart is gone.”

Li Ke slowed down, and said again, "I didn't kill you last time, but I wanted to give you a chance to choose again, to be a real wolf, and to make the Turks frightened. Because, you haven't Because of revenge, you have not lost your conscience because of the loss of glory, power, and money. When Zhang Hui kidnapped Sun Ning's wife, you can choose not to take action after knowing the situation and let them take Sun Ning's wife. The wife was kidnapped. However, you still shot, killed Zhang Hui, and saved Sun Ning's wife. Therefore, I think you still have a conscience and a rescue, so you are forced into a desperate situation, so that you can understand what life is again. , What is death? This king thought that you would pass the test of life and death and truly discover what you need? But today, you still let me down." After Li Ke finished speaking, he walked out of the alley go.

"Wait." When Li Ke's figure was about to disappear at the entrance of the alley, Qian Ning said, "I will not give up revenge just because of your kindness today. You are right, I am too selfish and only want revenge However, the scholar died for his confidant, and His Royal Highness has done me a favor, so I have to repay it. However, don't worry, I, Qian Ning, will not cause trouble for you and Li Shimin from now on. I know what I should do. One day, when none of Datang's neighboring countries can threaten Datang's safety, I will come to you and Li Shimin, and then I won't be merciful just because you let me go today."

Hearing what Qian Ning said, Li Ke smiled knowingly, "I will wait for that day."

Seeing Li Ke disappear at the end, Qian Ning turned his eyes, and said to Li Jiancheng's grave, "His Royal Highness, sooner or later, Qian Ning will avenge you." After finishing speaking, he disappeared into the alley .
