Anthology of Gu Long: End of the World, Bright Moon, Knife

Chapter 29 Tianlong Ancient Temple (2)
Does she want these gods to see the humbleness and pain of human beings with their own eyes?Watching her betray herself, and then watching her die.

Xiao Taozi was dead, she died on the bed with Zheng Jie, and the blood stained the red embroidery on the bed even redder.

The blood flowed from the large blood vessels at the back of the neck, and a single cut was fatal.

The murderer not only has a sharp knife, but also has a wealth of experience.

Fu Hongxue wasn't surprised either. Could it be that this matter was in his expectation?

——A person who is usually not talkative, how can he tell stories in teahouses all day long?Not even chopping firewood.

——He drank alcohol, ate meat, and prostituted women, so of course he would not have any savings.

——Then after he didn't work for two days, how could he have money to find Xiao Taozi?

——and he told the story so well and wonderfully, even the expression on his face could fully match, as if he had been used to it for a long time.

The conclusions to be drawn from these clues are obvious!
——He purposely stayed in the teahouse with the most people and kept telling stories, so that Fu Hongxue could find him.

——Gongsun Tu and the others gave him a sum of money and asked him to tell lies to Fu Hongxue.

—so now they're killing him again.

It's just that even though these inferences are completely correct, there are still some problems!

—Which of the stories he told were true?Which are the lies?Why are they telling those lies?Is it to cover up for the real culprit who killed Yan Nanfei?Or was it to let Fu Hongxue go to Tianlong Ancient Temple?

Fu Hongxue was not sure.But he has made up his mind, even if Tianlong ancient temple is a trap for killing people, he must go there.

At this moment, the naked woman in the pool of blood suddenly flew up, pulled out a knife from under the pillow, and stabbed him in the chest.

From the closet at the back, someone also jumped out, stabbing his back with a silver spear in his palm like a poisonous snake.

This was an absolutely unexpected move.

Zheng Jie was really dead, no one would have thought that the woman who died beside him was still alive.

No one paid attention to a lowly woman lying naked in a pool of blood.

No one could have imagined that this woman's attack was not only vicious and accurate, but also as fast as lightning.

Fu Hongxue didn't move, and he didn't draw his saber, so he didn't need to parry or dodge at all.

At this moment, a knife flashed outside the door, and it flew past the silver gun assassin's right neck and nailed it to the naked woman's throat.

Blood arrows flew out from the back of the man's right neck, and the woman's body just flew up, and fell down again.

With just a flash of the knife light, the lives and souls of two people were taken away.

Blood rained down.

Fu Hongxue turned around slowly and saw Xiao Siwu.

He still had a knife in his hand, this time he didn't trim his nails, but just looked at Fu Hongxue coldly.

Fu Hongxue said coldly: "One knife, two lives, good knife!"

Xiao Siwu said: "Really good?"

Fu Hongxue said, "Good!"

Xiao Siwu turned around and took two steps, then turned around suddenly and said: "Of course you can see that I am not trying to kill you."

Fu Hongxue said, "Oh?"

Xiao Siwu said: "I just want you to look at my saber again."

Fu Hongxue said, "I've seen it now!"

Xiao Siwu said: "You have seen me shoot three times, and the other two are aimed at you. Regarding my shots, there is no one else in the world who can know better than you."

Fu Hongxue said, "Very likely."

Xiao Siwu said: "Ye Kai is your friend, of course you have seen him make moves."

Fu Hongxue admitted.

Of course he had, and more than once.

Xiao Siwu said: "Now I just want to ask you one thing, if you don't want to tell me, I don't blame you."

Fu Hongxue said, "You ask."

Xiao Siwu said: "What is my flying knife that is inferior to Ye Kai?"

Fu Hongxue was silent, and it took a long time before he slowly said: "You have plotted against me twice. Although you tried your best the first time, you sounded a warning before you shot. Although you didn't make a sound the second time, you left two Participate."

Xiao Siwu didn't deny it either.

Fu Hongxue said: "It's only because you know in your heart that you shouldn't kill me. You have absolutely no reason to kill me. So when you acted, you lacked an invincible sense of righteousness."

He slowly continued: "Ye Kai wants to kill, but he must be killed, so he is better than you!"

Xiao Siwu said: "Just this?"

Fu Hongxue said: "This is enough, you will never be as good as him!"

Xiao Siwu also remained silent for a long time, then turned around suddenly, and left without looking back.

Fu Hongxue didn't look back.

After walking for a while, Xiao Siwu suddenly turned back and said loudly: "Look, one day I will be stronger than him, and when that day comes, I will definitely kill you."

Fu Hongxue said flatly, "I will definitely wait for you."

If you want to kill, there is no taboo.

Should Fu Hongxue also kill Xiao Siwu this time?
——If you don’t kill him this time, I’m afraid you will die by his knife next time.

This time Fu Hongxue didn't make a move again, but he didn't regret it, because he had put down a handful of seeds and put them in Xiao Siwu's heart.

is the seed of justice.

He knew those seeds would bear fruit one day.

When they walked out of the narrow alley, the 17-year-old girl put a bunch of jasmine flowers on her temples, stood at the door, and secretly looked at Fu Hongxue, looking a little scared and curious at the same time.

No one would ever give her dozens of taels of silver for no reason. This pale lame man must be a strange person.

Although Fu Hongxue didn't want to see her again, he couldn't help but glance at her.

When he reached the alley, she suddenly said loudly: "You hit me to show that you like me, and I know you will definitely come to me in the future."

Her voice was louder: "I will definitely wait for you."

The Tianlong Ancient Temple is the Great Tianlong Temple. It was originally a place full of incense. No one knows why it suddenly fell into the cold, but there are many legends about it.

One of the most widely circulated legends is that this ancient temple with a solemn appearance is actually a prostitution den. Beautiful women who go to worship Buddha are often captured in secret rooms in the temple, and those who refuse to comply are beaten to death.

So every night when there are no stars and no moon, their lonely souls and ghosts will appear nearby.

As for whether there is really a secret room in this temple?How many good women have been raped and humiliated?No one can be sure, because no one has seen it with their own eyes!
But since this kind of rumor started, the number of people who come here to offer incense has gradually decreased.

If a person believes that only a little sesame oil money can be exchanged for the safety and blessings of the four seasons, of course he will not study the truth and falsehood of the rumors very carefully.

Outside the ancient temple is a dense jungle, even in spring, the fallen leaves are piled up thickly.

Originally, the path leading directly to the temple gate has long been covered by fallen leaves and weeds. Even those who have been here many times, it is difficult to identify the path once they walk into the dark woods.

Fu Hongxue never came here even once!

From where he was standing now, there were huge trees all around, all almost identical.

He couldn't tell which direction to go was the right one.

While hesitating, there was a sound of footsteps on the fallen leaves. A monk with delicate features, as elegant as a crane, stepped on the fallen leaves and stepped forward. His elegant moon-white monk robe was spotless.

Although he is not very old, it seems that he is undoubtedly an eminent monk with extremely deep cultivation.

Although Fu Hongxue was not a devout Buddhist, he respected eminent monks and celebrities equally.

"Where is Master going?"

"Where you come from, of course you will go to where you are going."

The monk raised his eyebrows and closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and didn't even look at him at all.

Fu Hongxue still refused to give up the opportunity to ask for directions, and now there was no time for him to go astray.

"Master, do you know where the ancient temple of Tianlong is going?"

"You come with me."

The monk walked serenely and slowly. It seems that even if this road leads to the west, he will never take a step faster.

Fu Hongxue could only slowly follow behind!

It was getting darker, and they finally came to a small hexagonal pavilion. The vermilion paint on the railings outside the pavilion had peeled off. Inside the pavilion were a qin, a game of chess, a jug of wine, a pair of pens and ink, and a piece of red clay. small stove.

In this secluded woods, playing the piano and playing chess, reciting poems and cooking wine, eminent monks are just like celebrities, always in high spirits.

Although Fu Hongxue had never had such a leisurely and refined taste, he also respected other people's noble hobbies.

The elegant monk walked into the small pavilion, picked up a chess piece, and stared at it with a pensive expression in his eyes, as if he was thinking about how to make this move.

So he slowly put this chess piece into his mouth, and swallowed it with a "gulp".

Then he chopped the qin into pieces, stuffed it into the stove, lit a fire, poured out the wine in the pot to wash his feet, but poured the ink from the stone inkstone into the pot, put it on the fire to cook, and then held the chessboard Get up, keep beating, with a satisfied smile on your face, as if you think this kind of sound is far more pleasant than the sound of the piano.

Fu Hongxue was stunned.

——Is this highly cultivated monk actually a crazy monk?

Fu Hongxue was stunned again.

——The monk is not only crazy, but also likes to eat meat, human flesh.

The monk looked at him up and down, as if he was looking at how many catties of edible meat he had.

Fu Hongxue still couldn't believe it.

"Are you really a crazy monk?"

"Crazy is not crazy, not crazy is crazy." The monk giggled, "Maybe it's not me, but you who are really crazy."

"it's me?"

"If you are not crazy, why are you going to die?"

Fu Hongxue clenched his hands tightly and said, "Do you know who I am? Do you know where I'm going?"

The monk nodded, shook his head again, suddenly looked up to the sky, and murmured: "It's over, the ancient temple of a thousand years is about to collapse, and the sea of ​​people is full of blood, where do you ask the monk to go?"

He suddenly lifted the wine pot on the stove and poured it into his mouth. The ink flowed out from the corner of his mouth, staining his spotless moon-white monk robe.

He suddenly knelt down on the ground, burst into tears, pointed at the west and said loudly: "If you are going to die, go quickly, sometimes it is better to be alive than to be dead."

At this moment, a bell suddenly rang in the west!

Only the thousand-year-old bronze bell in the ancient temple can strike such a clear and loud bell.

If there is only one mad monk in the ancient temple, who is the one who rings the bell?
The weeping monk suddenly jumped up again, his eyes filled with shock and fear.

"It's the death knell," he cried. "When the death knell rings, someone must die!"

He jumped up and threw Fu Hongxue with the flagon, and continued, "If you don't die, someone else will. Why don't you hurry up and die?"

Fu Hongxue looked at him, and said calmly, "I'll go."
