A sincere man sharpens his sword in ten years.
Mu Qingshang entered the Supreme Palace at the age of nine. He has been practicing swords for five years. He can only be regarded as a "honest person". Naturally, there are no rules for winning the sword and closing the front.
On the contrary, he developed a blood-disgusting quirk in Mizongling since he was a child. Although he has a long sword in his hand since he learned martial arts, he has not killed a bird, and he is only ready to compete with his fellow students. , Every time I see a bean-sized blood drop, I can feel sick for a long time.
Master Suyin saw him too, saying that this was a heart disease, and there was no cure except for himself.
Therefore, seeing the assassin coming, Mu Qingshang’s first reaction was not to advance and retreat. While the hull was dragged by the rope, he stepped on the canopy and turned upside down and the sword entered the water. A stream of beads splashed, and several powerful crossbow arrows were swung away.
However, this underwater is not safe. Several black shadows are like a few swimming fish rushing towards Shen Liu. Although the latter has suffered a lot, he is very familiar with it, pulling his backhand on his hairband. A thin silver thread was pulled out, and the person sank to the surface.
Mu Qingshang couldn't see the underwater situation, but could see the blood suddenly spreading on the water.
His face suddenly turned pale, and the assassin on the shore grabbed the gap, and the crossbow bolts left the string again, and they dart past Mu Qingshang, leaving a blood mark on his arm.
There is a clear distinction between life and death. How can there be times of indecision?
At the moment of seeing the blood, Mu Qingshang actually didn't feel the pain. Instead, there was a weird breath walking around in the dantian. For a moment, he alternated between hot and cold, subconsciously operating his internal force to suppress it, but suddenly his eyes went dark, his mind With a buzzing sound, a sudden surge of darkness was swept along with the cold and severe air, as if the soul had escaped from the body and fell from the clouds to the rotten soil.
Mu Qingshang was startled at first, and then quickly calmed down, and immediately meditated on his mind, guiding the inner force of "Wujigong" to supervise the two channels of his own and wander away from his limbs.
In my own heart, it seems like a hundred years, but in the eyes of outsiders, it is only a short moment.
The moment Mu Qingshang’s consciousness returned to the cage, before he opened his eyes, he felt a warm liquid splashing on his face, and the sword in his hand was straight forward, but it was not empty, but frozen. Something soft inside.
He panicked suddenly, he opened his eyes suddenly and saw that the long sword in his hand pierced a person's chest, and the blood dripped down the blade of the sword. The sickening smell lingered, Mu Qingshang subconsciously Looking down, seeing the corpses all over his feet, or piercing his heart or cutting his throat, all killed with a single sword.
The man in front of him still breathed. He looked at the blood on Mu Qing Shang's face in horror. There was a few trembling noises in his throat, as if he had seen the evil spirit of Shura, but he couldn't say a word, and he stood straight back. Fall down.
One sword penetrates the heart, the bones are broken throughout the body, and it is already weak.
Cold sword, ruthless person.
However, the blood-stained sword was held in Mu Qingshang's hand, and the **** man was himself.
Mu Qingshang's hand holding the sword trembled a little. He looked down at the blade in disbelief. The blood had already rolled down like beads, and only the blade was as bright as before, reflecting his eyebrows at this time.
The young people's eyebrows are not fully opened yet, but they look elegant at first glance. At first glance, they look like ink outlines. However, the eyebrows are rare, and the eyes are rare indifference.
Such cold eyebrows and him hit the blade of the sword, as if the mirror flowers were not touched, they disappeared completely and completely, and when they saw that the brows had been raised, there was a sudden shock in his eyes. .
The **** smell surrounded him, and Mu Qingshang later felt nauseous and vomiting, but he found that his mouth-covering fingers were shaking slightly—not fear, but an uncontrolled excitement.
He staggered back, but hit a clammy body behind his back. Shen Liu didn't know when he climbed onto the shore like a water ghost, or how long he looked at him, his face looked uncertain.
However, it was not the time to speak, Shen Liu only hesitated for a moment, then grabbed Mu Qingshang's left hand and ran into the woods. Although the woods are dark and unpredictable, it is better than the waterway.
Mu Qingshang instinctively wanted to backhand him, forced himself to be restrained, the two of them turned into shadows without touching their feet, and ran far away before a hidden cave. Stopped.
This is a wolf den. Inside, there are a female wolf and a litter of newly born wolf cubs. Shen left this rare place to shelter. Seeing the female wolf grinning, she clenched her dagger, but she did not expect a wolf The **** ran over, shaking in the hands of Mu Qingshang.
Look, this is not like a ferocious wolf, but like a puppy with milk and a mother.
Shen Liu’s long-lasting memory began to loosen, and he suddenly remembered the three days of playing in Mizongling when he was young. There were numerous snakes, insects, rats, ants, birds and beasts, but none of them actively attacked Mu Qingshang. , Allowing the little child to come and go freely in the Forbidden Land of Houshan, where many secret guests in Helian's family are worried.
Mu Qingshang's clothes were bloody. He was not sure if the smell attracted the little wolf, but he didn't dare to step forward to challenge the she wolf's patience. He bent down and placed the wolf cub on the ground. Shen Liu said: "Let's go, don't disturb them."
Shen Liu raised his eyebrows, but still did not refute him. The two of them went back and found a downwind not far from the cave. It was probably because there were wolves here, but the nearby wild animals should be less. Many, except for a mountain brook gurgling, the rest are so quiet.
Mu Qingshang buried his blood coat in the soil, and then said to Shen Liu: "Why are they chasing you?"
Although Shi Cai was lost, Mu Qingshang did not let go of what he should observe. There was no Afurong mark on the killer's face. The number of martial arts and the method of besieging also followed the Central Plains style, unlike the traditional style of Helian. .
Since it is not Helian, and is pressing hard against Shen Liu, Mu Qingshang will inevitably have some doubts.
Shen Liu watched him all the way, from head to toe, not even the eyebrows and eyelash geometry, calmly overlapping this appearance with the child in his childhood memory, it is indeed ordinary No difference, just a subtle violation.
At this time, when Mu Qingshang spoke, Shen Liu smiled: "The more you know about things that have nothing to do with you, the faster you will die."
"If you can ignore it just because you have nothing to do, then I could have watched you die." Mu Qingshang sighed, "Shen Liu, it's really me, I won't lie to you."
Thinking more about "Wuji Gong" is not helpful, so Su Qing asked him to worry less. Now Mu Qingshang doesn't remember much. There are three or two people left and right, common things. Shen Liu is one of the few colors in his childhood memory. Just three days of getting along made Mu Qingshang know the happiness he deserves to be a child for the first time in his life. Although this happiness comes and goes, he still dreams of it at midnight. When chewing for many years.
Shen Liu was silent for a while, and asked: "How did you come over these years?"
The two sit by the stream, with gurgling water at their feet and pale moonlight above their heads. The world seems to have entered the painting at this moment. The people in the painting sit side by side, but their thoughts are different.
Mu Qingshang briefly recounted his experience over the years, and Shen Liu listened without saying a word. His eyes flashed when he heard him leave the Mistral Ridge and enter the Supreme Palace. , Still not much talk.
When Mu Qingshang finished speaking, Shen Liucai said, "Do you know the Hundred Ghosts?"
Mu Qingshang was banned from Zongling when he was a child, and the Helian family wanted to develop him into a silly fool. How could he tell him unnecessary things? Later, he entered the Supreme Palace. Although Su Qing taught him martial arts, he seldom talked to him about the arena, and occasionally mentioned it a few times, but it was barely skipped. Therefore, Mu Qingshang did not say anything about these arena forces. Know, but really don’t know much.
Shen Liu saw him with a dazed face, smiled unclearly, and pointed to himself: "Some people can't survive, so they have to behave like a ghost, like me."
Mu Qingshang frowned. From his words, he seemed to smell the scent of killing, and he subconsciously became wary of Hundred Ghosts.
If Helian’s house is a poisonous snake in the dark, Baiguimen is a ghost under the dark night.
"Helian's house is not a good place. The Hundred Ghosts are the same. They do things that are not visible, such as intelligence, assassination, smuggling, listing..." Shen Liu sneered, "The two sides have been fighting with each other for several years. , There are mutual damages. So back then, the sect master and Helian’s family deliberately cooperated, so I sent my dad to take someone to Mizongling to negotiate with the Helian family’s master. Unfortunately, my dad is a stubborn hard bone. My face is broken, without you... I'm afraid I won't even be able to return to the cave."
When Mu Qingshang heard the last sentence, he wanted to say something but stopped, and asked, "So now Baiguimen is incompatible with Helian's family?"
"That's wrong, they don't offend the river water, it's me and Helian who don't share the same sky." Shen Liu smiled coldly, "I finally managed to escape back to the cavern valley, crying to my master master to help me Dad takes revenge, but my master is unwilling to hurt both sides with the Helian family. He just draws a clear distinction, and did not pursue the lives of the people who died in Mizongling."
Mu Qingshang said "Ah": "Why?"
"Legal character is the first, why talk about love and justice?" Shen Liu twitched, "I was thrown into the dark hall by the master and taught me for more than half a year before being released. If I learn to behave, don't disobey him, otherwise you won't see him now. My...Fortunately, I was obedient and willing to do things for him. It took five years to become the young master. After his death, Baiguimen is mine."
Mu Qingshang clenched his fingers: "So, what's going on now?"
"The Helian family wanted to connect with the nobles of Tianjing to make the Hundred Ghosts easier. It paid a lot for this. My master naturally agreed, but I...not reconciled." Shen Liu gazes Gradually cold, "The Hundred Ghosts split into two factions about this matter, and they did not give in to each other. The master and the elders confronted each other every day, so they had to fight with real swords and guns, so he asked me to lead the way for the secret guest of the Helian family. After being successful, he has no regrets."
Mu Qingshang is just pure, not stupid. He looked at the head tied to his waist by Shen Liu: "You pretended to obey, but you took the opportunity to kill people... In that case, if your master does not want to talk to He Even if you have a bad relationship with the family, you will definitely hand over the culprit, so the killer just now should be the one he sent."
"I'm really homeless now." Shen Liu took his head off and smiled bitterly. "I wanted to go back to the valley to pay homage to my father, but unfortunately I can't go back now...nothing, when they were alive There have been countless murders, and filling the stomachs of beasts after death can be regarded as accumulating yin."
He threw the head back, making a dull sound, so exposed to the wilderness, there is a wolf den nearby, I am afraid that he will be taken away and eaten overnight.
Mu Qingshang sighed: "The deceased is gone, everything is gone."
"I haven't seen you for a few years. I didn't expect you to become so old-fashioned and soft-hearted." Shen Liu raised his eyebrows. "When you saved me, you didn't tell me about this for a dead head. "
Mu Qingshang's fingers in his sleeves were slowly squeezed tightly, and he seemed to ask unconsciously: "At that time, what did I look like in your eyes?"
Shen Liu squinted his eyes and said unclearly: "Just like you were just now, calm and fierce, different from usual. If I hadn't been watching, I would have thought you have a twin brother."
He talked about how Mu Qing merchants helped him escape the Lost Ridge in the past, and he glanced at the corner of his eyes and saw the boy's face getting paler.
Mu Qingshang's heart suddenly tightened. On that day, he only remembered that he had gone to the back mountain to look for Shen Liu, but he did not expect to run into the Helian family chasing and killing the Hundred Ghosts, and he did not expect to find Shen Liu. Right at the scene, at that moment, my heart was beating like a drum, my mind was blank, and there was only one instinctive idea-save the sink.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, his consciousness fell into a trance just like just now. He didn't even know what he had done. When he returned to his senses, he had already reached the willow head, lying on the bed as if he had just awakened from a big dream.
It was the first time that a strange illness had occurred. Mu Qingshang thought he really had a dream. He hurried out of the room but was locked in the yard by guards, each holding a knife and bowing more than usual. Divide and kill, so that he can't get out even one step, just like the situation in the "dream".
Mu Qingshang's heart trembled, and he quietly asked Zi Yan, the maid who took care of him, only to realize that the guest who had been a guest had fallen out with the owner of the family a few days ago, blocked the mountains and searched for killings, except for a missing child, nothing else was alive.
At that moment, there was an inexplicable horror and a splitting headache in his mind, but scenes of broken pictures flashed through his mind, as if he was watching how he kills and how to save a life from the perspective of a bystander.
However, Mu Qingshang was tired of death and fear of blood. He always felt that it was a dream, but it was so real that he doubted and wavered.
Since then, Mu Qingshang has started to suffer from accidental attacks, mostly when he is in danger or emotional ups and downs. The illness seems to be separated from the soul, and it comes and goes fast. After waking up, he always has a headache. I don't know the situation, and I don't know what I've done. I only have vague memories in my mind, and I need to think about it to become clear.
The memory after the onset of illness has one thing in common, that is, after each attack, his hands will be bloody, and there must be dead people around him.
That should have been something he did personally, but every time it was like watching a stranger encounter.
Mu Qingshang felt that there was a monster in his body. He was terrified and feared, and he hated blood and blood. Until after practicing the inner power mental method with Daoist Suqing, he would concentrate on his exercises every time his mind was turbulent, and he had hardly recurred in recent years. However, if it hadn't happened tonight, Mu Qingshang would have thought that this strange disease had been cured.
Now listening to Shen Liu talking in detail about the past, it perfectly coincides with his "dream state", even the details have not been different, Mu Qingshang's face suddenly disappeared.
Shen Liu collected the changes in his expression into his eyes, thinking of the doubts buried deep in his childhood, and asked gently: "What's wrong?"
"I... remember something." Mu Qingshang reluctantly twitched the corner of his mouth and changed the subject unskillfully, "What will you do in the future?"
Shen Liu blinked, dragging the barren accent that I had learned from nowhere, pretending to be twitched: "I am homeless now, you save me twice, let me just agree with you. !"
Mu Qingshang just drank a handful of stream water and choked to death after hearing this.
"Hahaha, you are not a big girl, are you still afraid of me stalking?" Shen Liu laughed staggeringly, "You can be scared like this in a word, what should you do if you ask a good woman? "
Mu Qingshang's face was flushed, mostly angry: "Don't talk nonsense!"
"You didn't become a monk and became a Taoist priest, why can't you say?" Shen Liu teased him, and then obediently before the other party became angry, "Helian's family has not received the news yet, I don't know it's me. I Master is not so stupid. As long as I can’t catch me, he will immediately blame others and try to get rid of the Hundred Ghosts, so I need to find a place to hide from the limelight."
Mu Qingshang thoughtfully said: "I will send the letter back as soon as possible. Master should allow me to take you to live in Wangchen Peak for a period of time."
Shen Liu was greatly moved: "Brother, it's worth noting that I helped you dig so many herbs!"
"...The roots of the panax notoginseng you dug have been broken."
"Then there is Ganoderma lucidum!"
"Everyone said it was a wild mushroom..."
"..."
Being noisy for a while by Shen Liu, Mu Qingshang felt mad, and the sadness between his eyebrows eased a little. After Shen Liu fell asleep, he also held his sword and leaned on the tree trunk and slowly fell asleep.
Wait until the breathing became regular and long, Shen Liu opened his eyes silently, looked at the sleeping people beside him, quietly stretched out his hand, and a thin needle between his fingers swallowed cold light, and he was about to pierce the skin of Mu Qingshang’s neck. , After all, stopped at a minute.
He stared at Mu Qingshang's closed eyes, the expression on his face changed, and he finally put away the poisonous needle and fell asleep again.
Shen Liu didn't see it. The moment he turned his back, the boy who thought he was asleep lightly opened his eyes, and a ray of cold light flowed from his familiar amber eyes, but it was fleeting, and he closed his eyes again. on.
