Anthology of Gu Long: The Prodigal Son of Border Town

Chapter 20
Ye Kai stood in the dark, under the starlight, like a stone statue, a cold stone statue.

Ma Fangling also saw him, struggled immediately, rushed over, threw herself into his arms, hugged him tightly, cried bitterly, couldn't even utter a word.

Ye Kai didn't speak either.

At such times, consolation and persuasion are superfluous.

He just took off his long gown and put it on her body wordlessly.

At this moment, Fu Hongxue had already grasped his knife, turned over, and stared at Ye Kai, his eyes didn't know whether it was anger or embarrassment.

Ye Kai didn't even look at him at all.

Fu Hongxue gritted his teeth and said word by word, "I'm going to kill you!"

Ye Kai still ignored him.

Fu Hongxue suddenly swung his knife and rushed towards him.

Although one of his legs was crippled, even though his leg was still bleeding, but when he stretched out his body, he was still as nimble as a bird and as fierce as a tiger or leopard.

No one can imagine that a cripple can act so swiftly and swiftly.

No one can describe the speed and power of this knife!
"I am going to kill you!"

No one can describe the speed and power of this knife, the light of the knife has already slashed towards Ye Kai like lightning.

Ye Kai didn't move.

Before the light of the knife struck, it suddenly stopped.

Fu Hongxue stared at him, the hand holding the knife gradually trembled, turned around suddenly, bent down, and vomited suddenly.

Ye Kai still didn't look at him, but his eyes showed sympathy and pity.

He knew this young man better than anyone else, because he had also experienced the same suffering and pain.

Ma Fangling was still crying.

He patted her on the shoulder and said softly, "You go back first."

Ma Fangling said: "You...you won't see me off?"

Ye Kai said: "I can't see you off."

Ma Fangling said, "Why?"

Ye Kai said: "I still want to stay here."

Ma Fangling bit her lip hard and said, "Then I too..."

Ye Kai said: "You must go back, sleep well, forget what happened today, and tomorrow..."

Ma Fangling looked up at him, her eyes full of expectation and longing, and said, "Will you come to see me tomorrow?"

The expression in Ye Kai's eyes was very strange. After a long time, he said slowly, "Of course I will visit you."

Ma Fangling held his hand tightly, tears slowly flowed down again, and said sadly: "Even if you don't go, I don't blame you."

She turned around suddenly, covered her face and ran away.

Her cries were drowned out by the gust of wind in the blink of an eye.

The sound of horseshoes has also gone away, and the world has returned to silence, but the earth is like a frying pan, under which there is still an invisible and inaudible flame burning, tormenting its people.

Fu Hongxue vomited until his whole body was bent.

Ye Kai looked at him quietly, and when he finished vomiting, he suddenly said coldly: "You can still kill me now."

Fu Hongxue bent over, rushed a few steps, picked up his scabbard, and rushed forward.

He rushed a long way in one breath, and then stopped, looking up at the sky, exchanging blood and tears on his face.

His whole body seemed to be about to collapse.

But Ye Kai also followed him, was behind him, looked at him quietly, and said coldly, "Why don't you do it?"

Fu Hongxue's hand holding the knife began to tremble again. He turned around suddenly, glared at him, and hissed, "Are you going to force me?"

Ye Kai said: "No one is forcing you, you are pushing yourself, and you are pushing too hard."

His words were like a whip, lashing Fu Hongxue heavily.

Ye Kai continued slowly: "I know you need to vent, you must be much more comfortable now."

Fu Hongxue clenched his hands tightly and said, "What else do you know?"

Ye Kai smiled and said, "I also know that you will never kill me, nor do you want to kill me."

Fu Hongxue said, "I don't want to?"

Ye Kai said: "Maybe the only person you really want to hurt is yourself, because you..."

Fu Hongxue's eyes revealed pain, and he suddenly shouted, "Shut up!"

Ye Kai sighed, but continued, saying: "Although you consciously did something wrong, these things are actually not your fault."

Fu Hongxue said, "Whose fault is it?"

Ye Kai stared at him and said, "You should know who it is...Of course you do."

Fu Hongxue's pupils were shrinking, and he suddenly said loudly, "Who are you?"

Ye Kai smiled again, and said lightly: "I am me, my surname is Ye, and my name is Ye Kai."

Fu Hongxue said sharply, "Your real surname is Ye?"

Ye Kai said: "Your real surname is Fu?"

The two stared at each other, as if they both wanted to see into each other's heart and dig out the secrets in each other's heart.

It's just that Ye Kai is always relaxed and calm, but Fu Hongxue is always tense like a taut bow.

Then they suddenly heard a very strange sound at the same time, as if it was the sound of a horse's hoof stepping on the mud, or as if a butcher was chopping meat.

The voice was originally very soft, but the night was too quiet, and the ears of the two of them were too sharp.And that's where the wind blows from.

Ye Kai suddenly said: "I didn't come here to find you."

Fu Hongxue said, "Who are you looking for?"

Ye Kai said: "The person who killed the flying spider."

Fu Hongxue said, "Do you know who it is?"

Ye Kai said: "I'm not sure, I'm going to find out now."

He turned over and ran a few feet away, then stopped again, as if he was waiting for Fu Hongxue.

Fu Hongxue hesitated, but finally chased after him.

Ye Kai smiled and said, "I knew you would come."

Fu Hongxue said, "Why?"

Ye Kai said: "Because everything that happened here may have something to do with you."

Fu Hongxue's people tensed again, and said, "Do you know who I am?"

Ye Kai smiled and said, "You are you, your surname is Fu, and your name is Fu Hongxue."

The wind was blowing, and the noise had stopped.

Fu Hongxue tightly shut his mouth and stopped talking, and kept the same speed as Ye Kai.

His qinggong and agility are very strange, very light, and unexpectedly very graceful.

When he performed lightness kung fu, no one could see that he was a cripple who was injured.

Ye Kai had been paying attention to him, and suddenly sighed, "You seem to have been practicing martial arts since you were born."

Fu Hongxue kept a straight face, and said coldly, "What about you?"

Ye laughed and said, "I'm different."

Fu Hongxue said, "What's the difference?"

Ye Kaidao: "I am a genius."

Fu Hongxue sneered, and said, "Geniuses die quickly."

Ye Kai said lightly: "It's a good thing sometimes to die quickly."

Fu Hongxue's eyes showed pain again.

"I can't die, absolutely can't die..." He kept shouting in his heart.

Then he heard Ye Kai suddenly let out a soft cry.

The strong wind was suddenly full of bloody smell again, and the bleak starlight illuminated a pile of dead bodies.

In this prairie, human life seems to have become worthless like cattle and horses.

A big pit was dug next to the corpse, but it was not deep, and there were seven or eight shovels beside it.

It was obvious that after they killed someone, they were about to bury the body, but they found someone coming, so they retreated in a hurry.

Who is the murderer?

No one knows.

It was Murong Mingzhu and his nine young swordsmen who were killed.Murong Mingzhu's sword has been drawn, but these nine people were murdered before even drawing out their swords.

Ye Kai sighed, and murmured: "Shoot so fast, so viciously!"

If it is not an expert in killing, how could there be such a quick and vicious shot.

Fu Hongxue clenched his hands tightly, as if he was getting excited again, he seemed very afraid of seeing dead people and blood.

Ye Kai didn't care.

He suddenly took out a rag from his body, with a button attached to it.

This rag was made of the same material as the clothes on Murong Mingzhu's body, and the buttons were of the same shape.

Ye Kai let out a long sigh and said, "It really is him."

Fu Hongxue frowned, obviously not understanding.

Ye Kai said: "I took this piece of rag from the flying spider, and he still held it tightly until his death."

Fu Hongxue said, "Why?"

Ye Kaidao: "Because Murong Mingzhu is the murderer who killed him! He wants to tell others the secret."

Fu Hongxue said, "Tell you? Want you to avenge him?"

Ye Kai said: "He didn't want to tell me."

Fu Hongxue said, "Who does he want to tell?"

Ye Kai sighed and said, "I also wish I could know."

Fu Hongxue said, "Why did Murong Mingzhu kill him?"

Ye Kai shook his head.

Fu Hongxue said, "How could he be in that coffin?"

Ye Kai shook his head again, Fu Hongxue said, "Who killed Murong Mingzhu again?"

Ye Kai murmured, and said: "I only know that the person who killed Murong Mingzhu did it to silence his mouth."

Fu Hongxue said, "Shut up?"

Ye Kaidao: "Because this person doesn't want others to find out that the flying spider died in the hands of Murong Mingzhu, and he doesn't want others to find Murong Mingzhu."

Fu Hongxue said, "Why?"

Ye Kaidao: "Because he is afraid that others will find out the relationship between him and Murong Mingzhu."

Fu Hongxue said, "You can't guess who he is?"

Ye Kai suddenly stopped talking, as if he had fallen into deep thought.

After a long time, he slowly said: "Do you know that Yun Zaitian went to look for you this afternoon?"

Fu Hongxue said, "I don't know."

Ye Kai said: "He said he went to look for you, but when he saw you, he didn't even say a word."

Fu Hongxue said, "Because he's not looking for me at all!"

Ye Kai nodded, and said: "Yes, of course he is not looking for you, but who is he looking for? - Xiao Bieli? Cui Nong? If he is looking for these two people, why would he lie?"

The wind is stronger.

The yellow sand is all over the sky, the weeds are weeping, the sky is like a black jade studded with diamonds, brilliant and beautiful, but the earth is gloomy and sad.

Occasionally a horse neighed or two in the wind, but it made the field even more lonely and vast.

Fu Hongxue walked slowly in front, and Ye Kai followed slowly.

Of course he could have rushed to the front, but he didn't.

There seemed to be a strange distance between the two of them, but there seemed to be a strange connection.

There are lights in the distance.

Fu Hongxue suddenly said slowly: "One day, either you will kill me, or I will kill you!"

Ye Kai said: "One day?"

Fu Hongxue still didn't look back, and said word by word: "This day may come soon."

Ye Kai said: "Maybe this day will never come."

Fu Hongxue sneered, "Why?"

Ye Kai let out a long sigh, staring at the darkness in the distance, and said slowly: "Because we might all die at the hands of others!"

Ma Fangling lay on the pillow, the pillow was already wet with tears.

Until now, she still couldn't restore her emotional calm. Love and hate were like two powerful hands, which were about to tear her heart apart.

Ye Kai, Fu Hongxue.

These are two strange people.

The prairie was originally lonely and peaceful, but since the arrival of these two people, everything has changed horribly.

No one knows how terrible this change will develop.

Who are these two people?Why are they here?
Thinking of that night, on the yellow sand, under the starry sky, she curled up in Ye Kai's arms.

Ye Kai's hands are so gentle and sweet, she is ready to give everything.

But he didn't accept it.

She said that when she wanted to go back, she only wanted to be left by him, even if he left her with violence, she didn't care.

But he just let her go.

He looked so cunning, so hateful, but he let her go.

Another night, under the same starry sky, on the same yellow sand, she met a completely different person.

She never thought that Fu Hongxue would do such a thing.

He seemed to be a silent and lonely child, but suddenly he became a beast.

What caused him to change?

Whenever Ma Fangling thought of this incident, Ma Fangling's heart immediately began to ache.

She had never seen two people so different, and yet it was strange that they should suddenly be equally haunting to her.

She knew that her life would definitely change for these two people.

Her tears flowed again... There were heavy footsteps on the roof, and she knew it was her father's footsteps.

Ma Kongqun lives above his daughter.
