Chapter 36 Thirty-fifth round of seniors

This person is a stranger.No one here has ever seen him, nor anyone like him. He looked handsome and clean, he was supposed to be a popular guy everywhere, and he was young, with tight and smooth skin and not a shred of superfluous muscle on his body. He didn't carry any terrifying weapons on him.But he was a terrible man.His silence is terrible; not speaking is not absolute silence, what is terrible is the absolute silence. Sitting here for a long time, not only did he not speak, he did not move, which was a very uncomfortable thing.But his appearance is very relaxed and natural, as if he always sits like this without moving.

There was wine and wine glasses on the table, but he didn't even touch them.It seems that this wine is not called to drink, but to come to see.Whenever he saw the jug of wine, there was a hint of warmth in his indifferent eyes. Could this jug of wine remind him of a friend he always misses? He was wearing a very ordinary coarse cloth, which was very clean, and a short stick was casually stuck in the belt of the same color as the clothes. The short stick is not scary, but the most terrifying thing is his eyes. His eyes are very bright, many people have bright eyes, but his eyes are special, more special than anyone else, as if they can always illuminate the darkest place in your heart.

No matter who is looked at by these eyes, he will feel that all his secrets have been seen by him.This feeling is really uncomfortable. Now he ordered another bowl of noodles.He has started to eat noodles, eating slowly, chewing carefully, as if this bowl of noodles is the best bowl of noodles he has ever eaten in his life, or as if this is the last bowl of noodles he will ever eat. His hand holding the chopsticks was dry and stable, with long fingers and short nails. While he was eating noodles, Fu Hongxue walked in. As soon as Fu Hongxue walked in, he saw this stranger.But he suddenly found that the stranger's eyes were already looking at him, as if he already knew that such a person must come in.

When being looked at by these eyes, Fu Hongxue also felt an indescribable fear in his heart.He has never felt this way before, like walking into a strange place in the dark and suddenly finding a wolf waiting for you. He walked in slowly, deliberately not looking at the stranger, but his hand holding the knife was clenched even tighter. He was ready to draw his knife. The stranger just sat there casually, and he could have slit his throat at any time. He has always known how fast his knife is, he has always been sure, but this time he suddenly became unsure. Although the stranger was sitting there casually, he looked like a martial arts master, and he had put on the strictest defensive posture, with no flaws in his whole body.

This was something Fu Hongxue had never encountered before. He walked more slowly, taking a step slowly with his left foot first, followed by his right leg. He is waiting for his chance. The stranger was still looking at him, and suddenly said: "Please sit down." Fu Hongxue stopped involuntarily, as if he still didn't know who he wanted to sit. The stranger pointed to the opposite chair with the bamboo chopsticks in his hand, and said, "Please sit down." Fu Hongxue hesitated, but actually sat down opposite him. The stranger asked, "Drink?" Fu Hongxue said, "Don't drink."

The stranger asked, "Never drink?" Fu Hongxue said, "Don't drink now." A strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of the stranger's mouth, and he said slowly, "Ten years..." Fu Hongxue could only listen, he couldn't comprehend the meaning of these words. The stranger continued slowly: "In the past ten years, no one has tried to kill me." Fu Hongxue's heart skipped a beat. The stranger stared at him and said calmly, "But you are here to kill me now!" Fu Hongxue's heart skipped a beat again, he really didn't understand how this stranger would know his purpose of coming.

The stranger was still staring at him and said, "Isn't it?" Fu Hongxue said, "Yes!" The stranger smiled again, and said, "I can see that you are a person who can't lie." Fu Hongxue said: "I can't tell lies, but I can kill people." The stranger asked, "Have you killed many people?" Fu Hongxue said, "A lot." The stranger's pupils seemed to be shrinking, and he said slowly, "Do you think killing people is fun?" Fu Hongxue said, "I didn't kill people for fun." The stranger asked, "For what?"

Fu Hongxue said, "I don't need to tell you." A strange look of sadness appeared in the stranger's eyes, and he sighed, "That's right, everyone has his own reasons for killing people, and it's true that you don't need to tell others." Fu Hongxue couldn't help asking, "How did you know I was coming to kill you?" The stranger said: "You have murderous intent." Fu Hongxue said, "Can you see that?" The stranger said: "The murderous intent cannot be seen, but there is a kind of person who can feel it." Fu Hongxue said, "Are you this kind of person?"

The stranger said: "I am." His gaze seemed to be far away again, and he continued: "It is because I have this feeling that I am still alive now." Fu Hongxue said, "You are indeed still alive now." The stranger asked, "Do you think you can kill me?" Fu Hongxue said: "There is no one who cannot be killed in this world." The stranger asked, "Are you sure?" Fu Hongxue said: "If you're not sure, you won't come." The stranger laughed again.His smile is mysterious and strange, like a mysterious spring breeze blowing in the severe cold, melting the ice and snow.

He smiled and said, "I like you as a person." Fu Hongxue said, "But I still want to kill you." The stranger asked, "Why?" Fu Hongxue said, "There is no reason." The stranger asked, "Murder without a reason?" Pain suddenly appeared in Fu Hongxue's eyes, and he said, "Even if there is a reason, I can't tell you." The stranger said: "Do you have to kill me?" Fu Hongxue said, "Yes." The stranger sighed and said, "It's a pity." Fu Hongxue said, "What a pity?" The stranger said: "I haven't killed anyone for many years."

Fu Hongxue said, "Oh?" The stranger said: "That's because I have a principle, if you don't want to kill me, I will never kill you." Fu Hongxue said, "What if I am determined to kill you?" The stranger said: "You have to die." Fu Hongxue said, "You may be the one who died." The stranger said: "Maybe..." Only then did he look at the knife in Fu Hongxue's hand, and said, "It seems your knife must be very fast?" Fu Hongxue said, "Quick enough." The stranger said: "Very good." He started eating noodles again, eating slowly and chewing carefully. Holding the chopsticks in one hand and holding the bowl in the other, it seemed that as soon as Fu Hongxue pulled out the knife, the blade would strike straight down from the top of his head. He had no room to fight back. But Fu Hongxue's knife was still in the scabbard, and the scabbard looked darker in the afterglow of the setting sun, but his hands were even paler. He didn't draw his knife, because in front of this stranger, he suddenly didn't know where to strike with his knife. In front of this stranger, it seemed that there was an invisible high wall blocking him. The stranger no longer looked at him, and slowly said: "Killing people is not an interesting thing, being killed is even more boring." Fu Hongxue didn't answer, because the stranger didn't seem to be talking to him. The stranger continued slowly: "I have always disliked people who want to kill without reason, especially young people. Young people should not form this habit." Fu Hongxue said, "I didn't come to listen to your lecture either." The stranger said indifferently: "The knife is in your hand, you can pull it out at any time." He ate the last few noodles slowly, with a relaxed and natural attitude. But every muscle and every nerve in Fu Hongxue's body was tense. He knew that now was the time to draw his sword.If this knife is pulled out, one of them will fall down between the two of them! The hotel suddenly became empty. Everyone had slipped out quietly, not even the lamplighter. The afterglow of the setting sun lightly shines in from the window.What a sad sunset. Fu Hongxue still seemed to be sitting there without moving, but his body was suspended in the air; he had concentrated every ounce of strength in his body on his right arm.The black handle was only three inches away from his pale hand. The stranger's stick was still stuck in his belt—a very ordinary stick, whittled from poplar wood. Fu Hongxue suddenly drew his saber! There is no knife light.The knife was not drawn out at all; just as he was pulling out the knife, a person flew in from outside the door, and with a flash of his body, this person fell beside him. A tall man, bare-chested, but wearing black satin trousers embroidered with red flowers. One of the powder-soled palace boots on his feet has fallen off. Gold maniac. This crazy and strange lone thief fell to the ground like a pile of mud, his face was full of pain, his body was shrunk into a ball, and he couldn't even get up. How could he come suddenly?How did it become like this? How could Fu Hongxue's knife be pulled out? The stranger had already eaten the last noodle and put down his chopsticks, this sudden change did not cause a trace of surprise on his face. He didn't even bat an eye and was looking out the door now. Another person walked in from outside the door. Ye Kai. It was that lingering Ye Kai again. The stranger looked at Ye Kai, and there was a hint of warmth in his indifferent eyes. When Ye Kai looked at him, his expression was very respectful. He had never been so respectful to anyone. The stranger suddenly asked, "Is he your friend?" Ye Kai said: "Yes." The stranger asked, "What kind of person is he?" Ye Kaidao: "He is a very gullible person." The stranger asked, "Is he someone who kills casually?" Ye Kai said: "Absolutely not." The stranger said: "He has a reason to kill me?" Ye Kai said: "Yes." The stranger asked, "Is that a good reason?" Ye Kaidao: "No, but it is a reason worthy of forgiveness." The stranger said: "Okay, that's enough." He suddenly stood up, smiled at Ye Kai, and said, "I know you like to treat guests, so I'll let you treat them once today." Ye Kai also smiled and said, "Thank you." The stranger has gone out. Fu Hongxue suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute." The stranger didn't wait, he didn't walk fast and his steps were not big, but suddenly he was outside the door. Ding Linglin was standing outside the door. She watched the stranger walk past her, and suddenly said: "This bell is for you." When she said the second word, the three bells on the gold ring on her wrist flew out. The bell would have rung.But after her bell shot out, it stopped ringing because the bell was too fast. Three bells struck the stranger's back. The stranger didn't look back, didn't dodge, and unexpectedly didn't catch it with a backhand.He continued to walk, still not seeming to be going too fast.The strange thing is that these three bells, which are faster than the stranger, never hit his back, and are always four or five inches away from his back. Suddenly, he had walked several feet. The silent bells gradually rang again, and then fell one by one. The bells were shining golden on the ground, but the stranger had disappeared. Ding Linglin was stunned. Even Fu Hongxue was startled. Ye Kai was smiling, but there was an indescribable reverence and envy in this smile. Ding Linglin suddenly ran over, grabbed his hand, and asked, "Is that man a human or a ghost?" Ye Kai said: "What do you think?" Ding Linglin said: "I can't see it." Ye Kai said: "Why can't you see it?" Ding Linglin said: "There will never be such a person in the world, but there will not be such a ghost either." Ye laughed. Fu Hongxue suddenly asked, "Is he your friend?" Ye Kai said: "I hope so, as long as he treats me as a friend, I am willing to ask me to do anything." Fu Hongxue said, "You know I'm going to kill him?" Ye Kai said: "I just found out." Fu Hongxue said, "So you came here immediately?" Ye Kai said: "You think I'm here to save him?" Fu Hongxue sneered. Ye Kai sighed, and said: "I know your knife is fast, I have seen it, but in front of him, your knife has not been drawn out of its sheath, and his short stick may have pierced your throat." Fu Hongxue kept sneering. Ye Kai said: "I know you don't believe it, because you don't know who he is yet." Fu Hongxue said, "Who is he?" Ye Kaidao: "Even if he is not the fastest shooter in the world, there is only one person who can be faster than him." Fu Hongxue said, "Oh?" Ye Kai said: "The person who can be faster than him is definitely not you." Fu Hongxue said, "Who is it?" Ye Kai's face showed the reverence from the heart again, and he slowly said four words: "Xiao Li Feidao!" Romantic Swordsman! These four words themselves seem to have an indescribable magical power, enough to make people's blood rush and their breath stop. After a long time, Fu Hongxue let out a long breath and said, "Could it be that he is that Ah Fei?" Ye Kai said: "There is only such a Ah Fei in the world, there was never one before, and there may never be another one in the future." Fu Hongxue held the knife tightly again, and said, "I know he always uses a sword." Ye Kai said: "Now he doesn't need to use a sword, the short stick in his hand is already the most terrifying sword in the world." Fu Hongxue's face turned even paler, and he said word by word, "So you came to save me?" Ye Kai said: "I didn't say that." He didn't let Fu Hongxue speak, and asked again, "Do you know who this person on the ground is?" Fu Hongxue said: "He said he was called Crazy Jin." Ye Kai said: "He is not, there is no such a person as Jin Crazy in the world." Fu Hongxue said, "Who is he?" Ye Kai said: "His name is Xiao Dazi." Fu Hongxue said, "Xiao Dazi?" Ye Kai said: "Have you never heard of Xiao Dazi?" He smiled, and then said: "Of course you haven't heard of it, because you have never been to the capital. Anyone who has been to the capital knows that there is no famous actress in the world who can compare with Xiao Dazi." Fu Hongxue said, "Famous actress? Could it be that he is a singer?" Ye Kai smiled and said: "He is also a genius, no matter what he plays, he looks like anything." Fu Hongxue was stunned again. Ye Kaidao: "This time he played the role of a well-informed Jianghu hero who promises a lot of money, and he obviously played very well." Fu Hongxue had to admit that the play itself was excellent. Ye Kaidao: "This play is called 'Double Trap', and it is a treasured secret book of the Yi Da Jing." Fu Hongxue moved, "The Book of Changes?" Ye Kai nodded, bent down, and took out a small notebook from "Crazy Gold". In a small book bound with rough-edged paper, there are many small characters densely written: "After the third watch, ask someone to carry you in a coffin. When I say: 'No one has drunk the wine', you will jump out of the coffin." Come out, laugh and say, 'It's no wonder no one drinks it.' Then..." After only watching this paragraph, Fu Hongxue's pale face turned red with shame and anger. Now he finally understood what was going on. All of this was indeed a play specially performed for him, and it was indeed already made up by others! Ever since he saw "Zhao Dafang" crying bitterly in the woods, he has already fallen into the trap step by step. The end point is a short stick; a short stick strong enough to pierce the throat of any man in the world!
