Chapter 21 The first chapter is about Guan Bo who has been in love for twenty years and fought a battle

"Sister, I know that my life will not be too long. The only question...is the matter I asked back then, how did the stars come from? But that matter is not important anymore. If she likes brother, then Let them be together. Can you promise me? Can you promise me...? The little brother is a good boy, I personally raised him up, and being with Xing Xing will not humiliate her..." The frightening "gurgling" sound of blood bubbles came more frequently, and blood flowed out from under the bandage, staining the gray army blanket covering his chest red. Old Madam Fang sat on the edge of the bed speechlessly, holding Uncle Guan's right hand, and replied gently but firmly: "Xiao Guan, you will not die, we will talk about everything after you recover, okay?"

Guan Bo coughed and forced a smile: "That's the best, but you promise me now that my brother will marry Xing Xing - I couldn't catch up with you back then, I hope my brother and Xing Xing can fulfill this long-cherished wish. Do you know? Brother is just like me back then, and there are many girls chasing after him, I want Xingxing to look after him, don't be like—” His pulse disappeared without a trace, his eyes were wide open, and he looked at old lady Fang fixedly but with great affection. "Old ghost, ginseng soup, ginseng soup!" Old lady Fang yelled. There was only a sound from the stairs, and a ghost appeared at the door like a melancholy wind, holding a bowl of light yellow ginseng soup in his hand, which was still steaming.However, based on Guan Bo's injuries, it would be useless even if he resorted to the "soup to hang his life" in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine.He lost a lot of blood, and the wound was in a fatal position. He was supported by his dantian zhenqi, so he didn't die on the spot.

"It's useless." I dejectedly let go of Uncle Guan's wrist. "Xiaoguan, wake up, wake up..." Mrs. Fang stretched out her hand to feel Guan Bo's main veins below the neck, inserted her fingers under the bandage, and stayed there for only three seconds. All were stained red with blood. "Miaoshou Banmen, Ban Lanting, Lovesickness Hook..." She lay next to Guan Bo's ear, softly repeating these three words that Guan Bo never forgot.Before meeting the eldest sister, the eldest lady of the Ban family, Ban Lanting, has always been Guan Bo's dream lover, and she never forgets it till now.

A sweet smile suddenly appeared on Guan Bo's face, as if he remembered something, he raised his hands violently, and tightly held Old Madam Fang's forearm. "Xiaoguan, I promise you, everything. Also, if you ask me about the origin of the stars, and the mysterious man who appeared on the night of thunder, lightning and storm, I will tell you everything, but you have to get better as soon as possible, do you hear me? "Old lady Fang pressed her lips tightly to Guan Bo's ears. Only in this way can he concentrate his last energy. "Walking horses outside the Great Wall with long swords on their backs, fighting tigers with empty hands and laughing at Shang Zhou. Ask Yu who is worried about selling wine, Mingyue high-rise lovesickness hook..." Guan Bo tried his last strength to read the song engraved on the storage lovesickness hook. The verses on the small door in the dark grid shook his shoulders, and the hand holding Mrs. Fang hangs down feebly.

With a blank mind, I got up and walked out of the bedroom.Maybe Guan Bo's last dying time should be reserved for old lady Fang, after all, he has loved her for so many years, and he couldn't get it during his lifetime, and his soul after death may remember her appearance forever. Ghost Jianchou followed behind me, still holding the bowl of ginseng soup in his hand. I walked into the study, fell heavily on the sofa, and stared blankly at the night outside the window.Once upon a time, Guan Bo and I played chess and drank together here, joined forces to defend against the enemy, and killed Mai Yi and his minions.In a blink of an eye, he left in such a tragic way, like a fleeting moment, so fast that my memory was blank.

"Shen Nan, do you want to hear what we have done?" Gui Jianchou appeared at the door. "What did you do?" I replied mechanically. "When my eldest sister sent a letter to Japan, she only said that she needed the help of seven ninja factions to fight against powerful enemies. I came here without hesitation, and only then did I know that she was going to fight against the people who have been entrenched in Hong Kong Island for many years." The cat demon made his move. The first time the cat demon appeared, it was in the Ye family——Ye Lihan, do you know this person?" He paused, as if deliberately giving me time to calm down.

I nodded, Ye Lihan is Ye Xi's father, of course I know. "Those past events involved the Nalan family from Vietnam. I don't want to explain in detail. The power of the cat demon is extraordinary. It is said that the eldest sister would not provoke it for no reason. The eldest sister said that the cat demon is still hiding in the Ye family's villa. , although the Nalan sisters trapped its soul with the 'Nightmare Baby', they could not finally eliminate it, so they joined forces with Xiaoguan and me to prepare to exterminate the cat demon. Shen Nan, in fact, I felt that the whole thing Very confused, after all, the cat demon has been trapped for many years, so there is no need to care about it, everyone can live their lives with peace of mind, but the eldest sister insists on going her own way, and Xiao Guan strongly supports and supports it, which finally leads to this meaningless battle. The seven factions The ninja successfully formed an formation and surrounded the villa, but no trace of the cat demon was found. Xiao Guan followed the eldest sister into the main building, and escaped with injuries after 35 minutes. From the beginning to the end, we did not see any side of the enemy , our side returned home in despair. I can only say that the eldest sister is old, and Xiao Guan has always been brave and foolish. This is a wrong offensive—"

Gui Jianchou sighed gloomyly, ignited a soft seven star, and leaned heavily on the door. "There is an Arab woman in that villa, right?" It is certain that they went to the villa that Ye Xi took me to visit. "Yes, there is only one woman who looks very normal. My people have searched her body, and there is nothing abnormal. Her identity is just an illegal immigrant refugee from Iraq, who was brought to Hong Kong Island by Ye Lihan's daughter." See Now, Yalesha did not attract Gui Jianshou's attention. If he knew that it was a woman with ten pulses, he might regret his carelessness.

As soon as the courtyard door slammed, Fang Xing hurried in, almost knocking open the door of the living room with all his strength, only nodded to Gui Jianchou, and went upstairs quickly without even looking at me. "Xing Xing is a good girl, I have always liked her." Gui Jianchou looked at Fang Xing's back thoughtfully. Uncle Guan's death made me feel heartbroken, and I didn't even want to listen to Gui Jianchou's words. I just stared blankly at a wild grass banner on the opposite wall in a daze. "How much do you know about the origin of the stars?" Gui Jianchou walked in, sat down opposite the desk, and silently flicked off the cigarette ash, with a cold face and no smile.

"I don't know." I had an unconcealable dislike for him, and now I just want to be alone, to hide the great grief in my heart. Guan Bo died for Mrs. Fang, but he also died for so many years of lovesickness. At the moment when he closed his eyes, he may be extremely gratified.Because he has fulfilled the promise he made back then, as long as Mrs. Fang has a move, he will immediately attack with all his strength, regardless of his own life or death.In this sense, he ended a perfect life today, which is a happy event that deserves to be appreciated. "Shen Nan, I think we can have a serious talk to see if there is any chance of cooperation?" Gui Jianchou's voice was much lower, and the wrinkles on his brows unfolded, revealing an inscrutable smile.

I snorted coldly in disgust, without raising my head, I gently rubbed and pressed my temples on both sides. "Sister and Xiaoguan both said that you are a rare talent. Since the beginning of the 21st century, the Japanese imperial family has formulated a secret policy of recruiting top talents in Asia and the Pacific Rim, as long as they are outstanding in one aspect , will be included in the competition targets, and the Japanese side will provide the best living conditions and development environment, and give them quite high national honors, and enter the prominent ranks of the Japanese government departments. Xiao Shen, anyway, Xiaoguan is dead now, you alone If you stay on Hong Kong Island, why not go to Japan with me to develop, with your medical skills and martial arts, it is definitely not a problem to seek fame and history." These tempting promises of Gui Jianchou sound like crows, and I can't hear them at all, because at this moment my head hurts more and more, as if there are more than a dozen pneumatic drills drilling in my brain Go, the noise and the pain are equally frustrating. I stood up and wanted to go to the kitchen to make a cup of coffee, but as soon as I saw the closed kitchen door, I suddenly remembered the scene where Uncle Guan walked out happily carrying a tray countless times in the past. Down. "It happened so suddenly, maybe the elder sister didn't expect to lose a friend like Xiao Guan—" Gui Jianchou followed, and continued his chattering indomitably. I hurriedly turned around, and before I could wipe away my tears, I shouted angrily, "Get out of the way!" It's lucky that it doesn't fall down. Ghost Jianchou shrugged his shoulders, and chuckled softly: "When you are close to vermilion, you will be red, and if you are close to ink, you will be black. If you follow Xiaoguan for a long time, you will naturally learn his reckless habits. I won't blame you." The anger in my chest burned even hotter, my steep shoulders shook, and a heavy left uppercut was punched from bottom to top.This is probably the easiest and most effective way to get the other party to shut up obediently.Gui Jianchou slid sideways, once again showed his favorite eagle claw hand, and clasped it towards my left elbow.The last time I fought against each other, I noticed that everyone's martial arts were almost the same. If I wanted to defeat him, I could only use throwing knives, but the corridor space was so small that I didn't even have a chance to raise my hand and throw a knife. "Xiao Shen, it won't be good if you don't eat a toast and eat a fine wine, don't you understand?" His feet are very agile, and he has already integrated the characteristics of the northern school's sword kick, ground kick, and meteor kick. There is the "Flying Swallow Lifting Technique" in Japanese ninjutsu, which almost slides in and out on the ground, like flowing clouds and flowing water.Obviously, his kung fu is ten times that of Guan Bo, but he doesn't reveal it easily. During the second attack at the wrong step, my left rib and right shoulder were hit by the eagle's claw at the same time. The bones in both places were almost shattered on the spot, and I was immediately numb and leaned against the wall. "You are not my opponent, but I am willing to support you." He stepped back slowly, took a tissue from the small table next to him, and wiped his fingertips leisurely, as if he thought my clothes had stained his hands, "Young man, every year at the 'Mt. Fuji Thousand Masters Tournament' in Japan, there are countless people who want to join my disciples and are willing to worship me as a teacher. As a result, I don't have any one I can fancy. Their aptitude is really mediocre. Now, if such an opportunity comes to you, if you are smart, you won't refuse it, will you?" He was the victor, and had reason to put on an air of superiority to show me off, but I had no interest in Japanese glory, ever. "If I had a throwing knife in my hand, you wouldn't take any advantage." I slowly rubbed my left rib, his "iron-beaked eagle pecking hand" was so powerful that the two layers of clothes under his ribs were pecked through, even The flesh of the belt is burning hot. "It's a pity that there are not so many 'ifs' in the world, and there will be no second chances to overturn the situation. I know this very well, so I can live longer than Xiaoguan, longer than most people, and It is the most valuable thing to live, to be able to continuously win, and to stand on a higher position—” His words were suddenly interrupted by Mrs. Fang: "In order to achieve your goals, use any means. Is this the principle of your life?" Ghost Jianchou was taken aback, and turned to look up the stairs, and I immediately slid back and re-entered the study.Yingclawshou's martial arts is best at close combat, among which "36 big grabs" and "72 small grabs" are classic techniques in short-hand combat, which are difficult to defend with ordinary martial arts.Therefore, I must avoid his strengths and widen the fighting space. The curtains were blowing in the night wind, but I smelled something really weird, like durian peel or banana peel, that disgusting feeling after leaving it overnight. "You are very smart. You peeked at the method of breaking the formation taught by Jin Jiu to Shen Nan. You opened the old dragon's 'Nine Palaces and Bagua Laser Array' one step ahead of time, and then cracked the 'Blue Dragon, White Tiger, Turtle and Snake Array', and took away four artifacts. But put the counterfeit that had been prepared long ago in its original place. Ju Ye, Da Lei, and Xiao Lei are all martial arts masters, and they don’t understand Yin-Yang and Five Elements, Qimen Formation, etc. Of course, they can’t tell the relationship between the counterfeit and the real one. So, they took the blame for stealing treasures in the Laolong Villa, but you put away the treasures and waited to unravel the secrets on these four artifacts. Old ghost, I sent you to Japan to escape, not I want you to help foreign enemies find trouble for your own people after you regain your vitality. Now, you'd better hand over those things, so that everyone can save their respective faces, and won't draw their swords and turn their faces, okay?" The old lady Fang's face was so gloomy that it frightened people, and Fang Xing, who was closely following her, was full of indifference, as if she had completely ignored my existence. "Sister, I just want to make things more perfect, so that Xiao Shen and Xing Xing won't be hurt." Gui Jianchou's attitude suddenly became humble and earnest, and he stretched out his hands, ready to help Old Madam Fang's arm. "So, where are the four artifacts?" Old lady Fang stretched out her right palm coldly. "It's in the hotel room where I'm temporarily staying, and it's locked in the safe, so as not to cause any accidents." Gui Jianchou put on an extremely innocent look, but everyone understands that this is already the time for him to see him. No matter how you pretend, you can't get away with it.This is a rivers and lakes where real swords and guns are fought with life and death, not a family wine where children are good and bad. "If I need that artifact, how soon can I order your subordinates to deliver it?" Mrs. Fang was extremely disappointed, but she still wanted to continue to finish the scene so that Gui Jianchou could show her true colors. Gui Jianchou took a step back, scratched the top of his head, and suddenly burst into a sharp and weird sneer: "Sister, open the skylight and tell the truth, I have long been a Japanese citizen, and everything I do now is linked to the interests of the Japanese royal family Those four artifacts are beneficial to improve the combat effectiveness of the seven major schools of Japanese ninjas in Qimen Dunjia, so the imperial family secretly ordered me to return to Hong Kong Island by your summoning. It is impossible to return the artifacts, and they will be mixed with It was shipped back to Japan in a sea container, and our friendship should end tonight, I don't know what you want?" Now, I finally understand the reason why the Jade Blood Spirit Ring didn't take effect. It was Gui Jianchou who dropped the bag in advance, leaving only the fake one for Ju Ye and others.Since Gui Jianchou has even prepared fakes, it can be seen that his return to Hong Kong Island is driven by political interests, and has nothing to do with chasing after Mrs. Fang. "It's over?" Mrs. Fang went downstairs, stepped into the study slowly, took a breath suddenly, and her face darkened. "Yes, that's the two words. Understand everything, break up grievances, and then everyone will go their own way, and never interfere with each other." Gui Jianshou smiled like a weasel that has stolen a chicken, with those Deep wrinkles slowly unfold.There is nothing strange about a person laughing when he is happy, but wrinkles have been formed for years and never stretch out with a smile. In the photo book, there is a firm definition of "stretching the forehead lines between the eyebrows" - "returning to the light, disaster is imminent", only the dead or quasi-dead people's eyebrow lines will be generously unfolded.Suddenly there was a miserable feeling of the rabbit's death and the fox's sorrow in my heart, because I saw too many killings today, and the lives of people in the rivers and lakes are really worthless. I am also a quack, and I may be like this when I fall in front of others one day. "How to end it?" Mrs. Fang sat down on the sofa. "You hand over the secret of the origin of the stars, and I will take her away and go back to Japan to do a deeper decomposition study." Gui Jianshou smiled lightly and skillfully, and made a quick gesture. A man in black with a gray bow and arrow and blowing tube surrounded Old Madam Fang. "It's that simple?" Mrs. Fang sneered. The ghost let out a sigh of relief, probably feeling that the winning ticket was within his grasp, and then relaxed his vigilance, standing behind the man in black and laughing: "Sister, the seven major ninjas are not at your disposal. , but have their own purpose. You are the only five-element formation expert left in the rivers and lakes. They really hope to absorb the essence of Chinese magic to make up for their own shortcomings. I think, if they can successfully control the stars, you must I will not hesitate to teach you, is that the case?" After seeing Tu Qiongdagger, Gui Jianchou's wolfish ambitions are clearly revealed.Mrs. Fang deliberately summoned the old department to kill the thieves, but instead led wolves into the house, which made a big mistake.This point completely violated her original intention.In fact, looking back, the change of the old and the new in the rivers and lakes is like the ebb and flow of the tide in Victoria Bay. It happens frequently every moment. All friendship and love cannot withstand the erosion of the tide of time. What should have changed has long since changed, and It is beyond recognition, it is unbearable to see. "Control her with your Japanese ninjutsu?" Mrs. Fang got a little angry, raised her hand, and pointed at the six men in black, but her right arm suddenly stiffened in mid-air, unable to move. "This is the 'Scorpio Soul' of the ninja of the Mt. Fuji Hunter School. As long as it enters the respiratory tract, its power will drop sharply in the next forty-eight hours, until it drops to zero. However, as long as you take care of it with peace of mind, it will return to normal within about a week." Gui Jianchou rubbed his chin and smiled wickedly. There are many schools of ninja in Japan, and each school is good at making cars behind closed doors, researching many weird drugs and hidden weapons.Since ancient times, various sects in Japan have not communicated with each other, so many things have been hidden in secret rooms, rarely made public, and only experts know a little bit. Guan Bo's old friends are all over the world, and his knowledge is even more extensive. He also dabbled in Japanese ninjutsu when he was wandering in the Northeast.He told me that the so-called "Scorpio Soul" is actually made by the Japanese Ronin who secretly purchased Datura flowers and Nepalese "Thousand Immortals" after entering Tibet, and then mixed them with the venom of the ghost-eyed octopus from the Japanese island.This kind of thing is often used in ninja sneak attacks, and it is similar to the Chinese "chicken crowing, five drums and broken soul incense". The old lady Fang sneered: "You really had a plan. You knew that my 'Turtle Breathing Kung Fu' had already been practiced to the highest level, and ordinary drugs couldn't work. That's why I brought this kind of thing. When we fought together in the past, everyone's weakness I will not hide it from my brothers, but I did not expect it to be used here by you today." "Sister, I didn't mean to scare you. When Xiaoguan left here to go out, the ninjas of the Demon Hunting Sect lurked here, just waiting for the most appropriate opportunity to show up. The poison has long been placed in every corner of the small building, so you can serve with peace of mind. You guys go on the road." Gui Jianchou sneered, every step fell into his calculations, and the credulity of Mrs. Fang and Guan Bo made his plan go smoothly. Sure enough, a red scorpion with its tail raised was embroidered on the cuff of the man in black, which was the special mark of the ninja of the Demon Hunter sect.Six people fanned over, ready to make a move. Mrs. Fang held her right wrist with her left hand and forcibly pulled her right arm down, her face becoming more and more ugly.It is very infuriating to be betrayed by one's good brother or friend, especially if the other party is a former admirer or suitor.The comparison between the two shows the preciousness of Guan Bo's true feelings. "Shen Nan." Fang Xing suddenly turned to me. I froze for a moment, realizing that she had something to say, but at this moment my feet were also softening, as if there was a gentle voice next to my ear saying, "Lie down, lie down." "This small building is your only shelter on Hong Kong Island. If someone wants to blow it up in an instant and die with a powerful enemy, will you hate him?" Her expression was so indifferent, like a piece of meaningless white solid ice. I nodded immediately, silently acquiescing.Having lived in the small building with Guan Bo for so long, I have long had a deep affection for the table, chair, bed and stool in the building, and I don't want to lose it.Because this is my home, and the only one in the world. Fang Xing sighed: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have raised such a question, just pretend I didn't say anything." My mood suddenly changed. When she mentioned this question, there must be something else hidden. Next, Fang Xing and I fell to the ground almost at the same time, but one was in the east and the other was in the west, more than ten steps apart. "Sister, what do you say?" Gui Jianchou approached Mrs. Fang.When he spoke softly to the other party before, he was as humble as an obedient pug, but now his tone was frivolous, and he regarded old lady Fang as the prey in his palm. "It's not a problem to tell you the secret of the stars, but now that she is a big child, she can decide everything by herself, why don't you ask her what she means? As long as she nods, I will make the secret public and let everyone Once people understand it, they won’t worry about it anymore.” Old lady Fang had a pun in her words, but temporarily bowing her head and being patient is essential. Only in this way can she delay time and let everyone live. Gui Jianchou snapped his fingers and turned to Fang Xing.Before he could open his mouth, suddenly, a gray shadow flashed in the window, and another person jumped in, tapped his toes on the window sill, and then rushed towards Gui Jianchou, his palms stood together like knives, and there were two clicks, fiercely thrust into his back.Immediately, two bloody strange hands appeared on Gui Jianchou's chest, and the blood immediately dripped into two dark red blood pools in front of his feet. The ghost cried out in pain, "Who is it? Who is it?" I could see clearly that that person was Guan Bo.
