Legend of the Heroes of the Southern Kingdom

Chapter 234 The past cannot be traced
After Ziqing finished speaking, he patted Li Wenxuan on the shoulder, then closed the door and went out, leaving Li Wenxuan alone in the room.

After listening to Ziqing's words, Li Wenxuan recalled all the things since he first met Zijing when he went south, little by little, the villain at the beginning, then the strange person, and finally this respectable and lovely person of his own. master.Li Wenxuan has always felt that his master seems to dare to love and hate, free and unrestrained, but only today did he realize that there is a knot in his heart that has been suppressed for so many years, who would have expected it?Who would have imagined how he spent nights full of guilt in Meifeng Temple all these years? , can make people intoxicated, and can make people forget the pain for a while, probably, that's why he likes to drink so much.

Li Wenxuan sighed: "Master, I hope you can truly be liberated as Master Ziqing said..."

Now that the poisonous needle had been taken out, and Li Wenxuan had used the Marrow Washing Sutra to force the poison before, it only took more than an hour at this time, and the remaining poison in the body was almost completely cleared.

Seeing that he was fine, Li Wenxuan wanted to go to Zijing's side to do his last filial piety, but as soon as Li Wenxuan stood up, he saw that the silver needle that Ziqing had just taken out for him was still on the table, and Never took it away.

The silver needle was shining brightly, with a blue light trembling on it, which was very eye-catching. Li Wenxuan hated himself for being hurt by the silver needle. Something was wrong, so I thought about it carefully: "On Wujianping that day, I heard them say that Master Situ was also injured by a silver needle hidden weapon? Could it be..."

Cold sweat broke out on Li Wenxuan's head, he quickly wrapped the silver needle carefully, put it in his bosom, and then went out.

Zijing's body was placed above the main hall of Putian Temple, and a group of monks were sitting around chanting sutras for him.

Zijing used to have long hair and a very messy beard, but at this time someone had shaved Zijing's hair and changed into a monk's robe. Her face looked no longer as fierce as before. On the contrary, it was very Modesty, like an eminent monk lying there peacefully, quietly listening to all kinds of whispers around him, completely different from his usual drunken and unrestrained appearance.

Li Wenxuan saw Zijing's attire, his nose sore, and he bowed his head and wept.

The monks of Putian Temple performed rituals for Zijing day and night for seven consecutive days.During this period of time, Li Wenxuan was by Zijing's side all day long, and he didn't think about food and drink. Some monks couldn't bear it, and wanted to comfort Li Wenxuan, but Ziqing stopped them, saying that they wanted Li Wenxuan to figure it out alone.

On this day, Zijing's funeral had been taken care of, so Li Wenxuan immediately went to find Abbot Ziming, and after a little monk informed him, Li Wenxuan saw Ziming and Ziqing were talking in the meditation room, first bowed to the end, and said: "Wenxuan I have met Master Abbot, Master Ziqing."

It was the first time for Li Wenxuan to make such a big gift in front of the two of them, especially for Ziqing. Almost every time the two met, they were only on the edge of swords and swords, and almost never had a good word. I was taken aback.

Zi Ming quickly smiled and said: "There is no need to be formal, get up quickly, what do you want to talk about when you come to me?"

Li Wenxuan took a deep breath and said: "Now that the old master is going west, and the funeral is over, I think it's time for me to leave here. It just so happens that Master Ziqing is also here, so I came here to bid farewell to the two masters."

Ziming and Ziqing were not surprised when Li Wenxuan said he was going to leave, as if everything was expected.Ziming said, "Oh, then where are you going now?"

Li Wenxuan shook his head and said: "I originally wanted to find my friends in Lin'an, but... for people like me, because of the incidents of Pinjian Villa and Fuzhou Security Bureau, meeting them would only be a drag on them, so, Where to go in the future, I didn't think about it for a while, I can only take a step to see, there is a saying that there must be a way to the front of the mountain, and everything in the future, master, please don't worry about Wenxuan."

Ziming sighed: "It's hard for you, I also know that you must go, but...the old monk has nothing else to say, I just hope that the future will be auspicious, and the misunderstanding will be cleared up as soon as possible, so I can pay you back." An innocence is also an innocence for the descendants of Huanpinjian Villa!"

Li Wenxuan said in a deep voice: "Thank you, master, Ji Yan, but speaking of the matter of Pinjian Villa, Wenxuan has something here that I would like to ask the two masters to take a look at."

After saying that, Li Wenxuan took out a small bamboo tube from his bosom, and opened the bamboo tube, revealing that it was the silver needle in his shoulder that day.

Ziqing said: "Isn't this the day I took out the silver needle for you? Hasn't your poison been completely cleared? Could it be that there is something strange on this needle?"

Li Wenxuan said: "Thank you Master Ziqing for curing my poison that day, Wenxuan has not thanked me so far, please accept Wenxuan's bow." After Li Wenxuan finished speaking, he gave another deep bow.

Ziqing hurriedly said: "It doesn't have to be like this, speaking of it, I still feel ashamed of you..."

After getting up, Li Wenxuan said again: "Wenxuan has little experience in Jianghu, so he dared to ask the two masters for advice. May I ask if there are any famous masters in Jianghu who specialize in using silver needles as hidden weapons to hurt people?"

Ziming held the silver needle and looked at it for a while, then frowned and said, "Forgive me for being ignorant, in recent years, I haven't heard of any expert using this silver needle as a hidden weapon. Why do you suddenly ask this?"

Li Wenxuan said: "To tell you the truth, master Situ suddenly died suddenly on the sword dancing ground of Pinjian Mountain Villa, and the people who came forward to inspect him said that the master Situ died because he was pierced through the heart by a silver needle. Sober and confused, I was only concerned about running for my life, so I didn't have time to think about it, but this time I was also injured by the silver needle, and the strength of the silver needle was very strong, so... I wondered if the murderer who murdered Master Situ could be those golden needles. people?"

"Ah!" Ziming and Ziqing also looked very surprised, and couldn't help crying out.

Ziqing took the silver needle, weighed it in his hand, and said: "This silver needle is as light as a feather. If you want to use it as a hidden weapon, and you will injure the enemy to death, I am afraid it will be difficult to do it without three or fifty years of skill." Yes. And Master Situ's martial arts are not inferior to my junior brother's. Not to mention the thieves in the distance who are behind the scenes. Even if you hit him face to face with this hidden weapon, I'm afraid it won't hurt him at all. Let me see, unless...unless this hidden weapon It is not produced by manpower, but is hidden in the spring crossbow of the machine, hidden by people on the body, and released unexpectedly at critical moments, hurting the enemy silently and invisible."

Li Wenxuan said: "Yes, yes, after I got poisoned with the needle that day, I thought about it for a long time, but I still couldn't figure out how the woman shot the silver needle. Hidden weapon, and depending on her age, I should be able to avoid it even if I hit it. But if I hide the silver needle in the spring crossbow according to Master Ziqing's guess, then everything will be logical!"

Ziqing said: "Having said that, if you see them again in the future, you must be very careful. The outcome is a matter of life, so don't be soft-handed for a while and cause serious damage!"

Li Wenxuan said: "Master, please rest assured, when I meet them in the future, I must be more careful!"

Ziming said: "What? Do you want to find them to avenge your master?"

Li Wenxuan did not speak, obviously acquiescing.

Ziming sighed and said: "If hatred is in your heart, if you don't hurt others, you may hurt yourself first."

Ziming paused and said again: "I won't stop you from going down the mountain at this time, but I have a message for you, old man."

Li Wenxuan said: "Wenxuan is all ears."

Ziming said slowly: "Stop killing, don't hold grudges!"

Li Wenxuan said in a low voice: "Are you asking me to let go of the hatred of Master?"

Ziming clasped his palms together and said, "Amitabha."

"Haha..." Li Wenxuan laughed, the laughter was so helpless, and the laughter made people sound so miserable.

"Two masters, Wenxuan will bid farewell here, and when I am proved innocent in the future, Wenxuan will definitely visit the two masters again!" After Li Wenxuan finished speaking, he cupped his hands and went out.

Ziming and Ziqing sighed, watching Li Wenxuan's disappearing figure, and gently closed the door.

Li Wenxuan went back to Meifeng Temple that night, and saw that when Su Qingxue and his party left, almost all the things the two bought before were left for Zijing, but it is a pity that Zijing will not come here again today, and Li Wenxuan is about to leave Well, the only one who will be able to use these things in the future is a sad person, or a lonely ghost in the mountains.

That day, Jing pretended to be angry and wanted to drive Li Wenxuan away, but Su Qingxue had no choice but to leave in such a hurry that she didn't even clean up the food and drinks for the day. Li Wenxuan randomly found a few cold steamed buns, and took another jar of wine that Zijing had hidden behind the yard before. Well, if Ziqing hadn't nodded to the wine here in the past, it was determined not to let Li Wenxuan touch it, saying that he would keep it for drinking when he was old.Li Wenxuan went secretly to get wine a few times, but Zijing always appeared behind Li Wenxuan suddenly, catching Li Wenxuan in front of him, and then he was beaten twice.At this time, Li Wenxuan wished that Zijing would appear out of nowhere as usual, and give him a good beating... Ziqing has never loved gold and silver, but only loves wine and meat. But these many fine wines are preserved alone, but after this time, will someone come to open them again.

The fire in the yard was burning hotly, the flame was as high as a person, and Li Wenxuan's face was flushed with the light of the fire. Li Wenxuan had already drank a lot of wine, as if he planned to hide Zijing's wine here before he left drink up.

Li Wenxuan was drunk, and while drinking, he practiced his sword again. What he practiced was the Bodhidharma sword technique taught by Zijing. Li Wenxuan's sword became faster and faster, and his feet became faster and faster. Under the mutual reflection of the fire, In this Meifeng Temple, there are dancing figures, transformed sword shadows, fiery red light of flames, and cold moonlight of silver moon, all flickering on the wall, like a sword dance. And the whistling sound that kept coming out was singing, as if it was singing for this dance.

The courtyard seems to be full of murderous intent, and it seems to be making the last sacrifice for the dead. It didn't happen until Li Wenxuan didn't know whether it was because he was drunk or tired, or he was lying on the ground and couldn't get up. still.

In the early morning, Li Wenxuan chopped off a piece of wood, and made a rectangular wooden box out of the wood, and carried it behind his back. One was to use it as a package, and the other was to place the Qingshuang Sword. Li Wenxuan knew that the sword energy of the Qingshuang Sword was too eye-catching. , no matter who it is, as long as you carry the Qingshuang Sword on your body, you can find him at a glance in the crowd.So Li Wenxuan could only use this method, so that he could walk with peace of mind. After all, Li Wenxuan didn't want to cause more troubles and hurt his life.

As soon as the city gate of Putian City was opened, there were pedestrians waiting inside and outside the city gate early, waiting to leave or enter the city.

Li Wenxuan packed everything up and went to Putian City instead of rushing on the road, because after the Fuzhou Escort incident, after all, the lives of more than a dozen people were at stake, and Li Wenxuan also wanted to know whether he was wanted by the government. If so, then Be more careful in the future.

Li Wenxuan flowed into the city with the first wave of people this morning. Although it was early in the morning, there were already many people, and every household had pasted the Spring Festival couplets, and many of them were still hung with red lanterns.

"By the way, everyone is still celebrating the Spring Festival..." There were too many things that happened in the past two days, and Li Wenxuan had already forgotten about the Spring Festival.

If you want to inquire about the news, the best place to go is the tea house, where people come and go, half of the people want to quench their thirst, and the other half are bored and want to chat about new things they know, by the way Listen to others, and then take these things to other places, and then make a big fuss, so that you can gain some style.

There is a tea house not far from the city gate. Li Wenxuan and Su Qingxue have been there. That day, Su Qingxue ordered all the tea names that are very chatty. It made the tea doctor feel embarrassed. Either he has never heard of the name, or These are too expensive, and people in small places can't afford them. In the end, it was Li Wenxuan who let Su Qingxue accommodate, and this was considered to be the marriage of Dr. Tea.Thinking of what happened that day, Li Wenxuan couldn't help smiling. Just as he was about to walk over, he heard a sudden commotion at the city gate, and soon many people surrounded him.

Those were three officials, and the two were posting notices under the city gate. Li Wenxuan was too far away to see what was written on the list, but he clearly heard that the leader was an official, standing on a wooden pier. He said loudly on the small platform: "Fathers and folks, everyone, please take a good look. Tell the people above that it is Li Wenxuan, a big thief in the Jianghu. Eyes, eyebrows, one by one can be seen clearly, if you see this person in the future, everyone must report to the police, we can't let this villain do anything wrong again!"

After the official said it, many people below said in a few words: "It's too inhumane. There are so many murderers, and I don't fear retribution in the next life!", "Nineteen lives, alas, everyone is the pillar of the family. , the man is gone, how will the family live in the future!", "If I catch this kind of person, he must be scraped alive!", "It's up to you? Seeing this villain Are you scared to pee your pants?"...

Li Wenxuan listened to those words from the side, his heart felt stabbing pains, his whole body couldn't help shaking, Li Wenxuan was afraid of being seen, so he hurriedly lowered his head and often retreated, thinking that Putian City would never come, no matter what, it was still Better leave soon.

Li Wenxuan had just taken two steps when he heard someone say, "Do you know? I heard that this person even made a case!"

As soon as this person opened his mouth, two or three people immediately asked at the same time: "What case is not written in the official announcement, where did you know?"

Li Wenxuan was about to leave, but when he heard what this person said, he was secretly taken aback, so he stopped, paying attention to what he was going to say.

The man whispered mysteriously again: "The eldest son of the Lin family died in the first two days, do you know?"

Li Wenxuan's heart skipped a beat, and he thought, "Isn't the eldest son of the Lin family a virtue? How could he die?"

One person said: "What's so strange about your matter? Anyone in the city who can speak and have long ears knows about the matter of the eldest son of the Lin family, and you are not the only one who knows."

"Humph—" the person who spoke earlier snorted heavily in his nostrils, paused and said again: "You know what, the eldest son of the Lin family was also said to have been killed by that Li Wenxuan!"

One person interrupted: "Nonsense, where did you get the news, you made it all up!"

The man raised his eyebrows and said: "What do you know, Mr. Zhao, the Lin family's housekeeper, is he a man of dignity? That's my own uncle. Can there be any truth to what he said? Listen to him, Li Wenxuan's wicked The thief had long wanted to kill the young master of the Lin family, but for some reason, it didn't happen, but he was frightened by the young master, and he was dumbfounded for a long time. Be happy, but it’s almost good. How did you know that the Fuzhou Security Bureau, tsk tsk, nineteen lives were all killed by that person. When Young Master Lin heard about it, he was scared out of his wits and talked about Li Wenxuan all day long. He wanted to harm him, but after tossing for a whole day, he kicked his legs and died the next night..."

After hearing what the man said, they no longer doubted him, and felt sorry for the Lin family. While feeling sorry, they didn't forget to curse Li Wenxuan's name again.

Li Wenxuan originally planned to leave at this time, but listening to them all scolding that person named Li Wenxuan, not only was he not angry, but he also felt that they were not wrong, as if that person really deserved to be scolded and cast aside ...

"Why... I went to the Escort to save people. There was no other way. That's why I killed people. Yun Fang deserved it, but that's so bad, it can't be said to be too bad, it really shouldn't be... How could he be scared to death by me... ...Could it be that I'm afraid that I'll look for him again? But I've never thought of it...and the family members of so many people...in the days to come..." Li Wenxuan was so upset that he didn't dare to think about it , I didn’t dare to listen any longer, I was afraid that if I stayed for a while longer, I wouldn’t be able to help but admit that I was that murderous gangster Li Wenxuan without being recognized by others!
