Chapter 19 The nineteenth round of heart and soul

Although the road was covered with snow and the wind was biting, Shen Lang and Zhu Qiqi didn't feel any difficulty walking this section of the road, until the smell of meat wafted in the cold wind. Zhu Qiqi's eyes lit up, he smiled, and said, "There's a gluttonous cat here, cooking braised pork before dawn." Shen Lang said: "It's windy, snowy, cold and deserted, but there is such a smell of meat, don't you think it's strange?" Zhu Qiqi said: "What's so strange? There are greedy people everywhere." Shen Lang glanced at her, shook his head with a wry smile, and stopped talking.

At this time, the dilapidated ancestral hall was already in sight, and the footprints of the disciples of the Beggar Gang disappeared in front of the ancestral hall.Did they enter the shrine? Zhu Qiqi's smile disappeared, and he frowned, "Strange! Strange?" Shen Lang said: "Are you surprised too?" Zhu Qiqi said: "The smell of meat actually comes from this ancestral hall. Who is the person who burned the meat? Could it be a disciple of the Beggar Clan? If so, how could they be so leisurely?" Shen Lang said in a deep voice: "The more dangerous it is, the more you will pretend to be leisurely and safe on the outside. The leisurely mood you see in your eyes may be a seductive trap, an ambush for murder."

Zhu Qiqi said: "But what kind of ambush is a pot of braised pork? Could it be that the meat is poisonous? Even if the meat is poisonous, so what if we don't eat it." Shen Lang smiled bitterly: "Sometimes you are indeed very smart..." Zhu Qiqi pursed her lips and said, "But sometimes you're too stupid, aren't you?" Shen Lang smiled and said, "You guessed it right this time." Zhu Qiqi pouted and said: "You are the only smart person in the world, and you have taken up all the intelligence in the world, so how can others not be stupid." She was angry, but she was not angry.For a long time, Shen Lang has been annoying her, this is the first time she saw Shen Lang smiling.As long as Shen Lang doesn't annoy her anymore, even if he calls her an idiot, she will still be happy.

But although he was happy in his heart, he still had to pretend to be angry.Girl's heart, alas... She pretended for a long time, but couldn't help but sneak a look at Shen Lang. I saw Shen Lang staring at the ancestral hall, not moving, as if in a daze. Zhu Qiqi said: "Hello." Shen Lang said: "Yes." Zhu Qiqi said: "Let's go! We can't just stand here forever, even if there are ambushes and traps in the ancestral hall, we have to take a look." Shen Lang looked at her, then at the ancestral hall, and said slowly: "I'll go in, you wait here."

Zhu Qiqi stared, wanting to say no, but when he saw Shen Lang's eyes, he sighed inwardly, lowered his head aggrieved, and said, "Okay, whatever you want." Shen Lang smiled slightly, and said: "This is just like a girl—if there is any movement in the ancestral hall, I will notify you..." He didn't make a gesture, but walked in slowly step by step. Zhu Qiqi watched him take a few steps, then suddenly called softly: "Hello." Shen Lang looked back and frowned. Zhu Qiqi said: "You...don't make me wait too long." Shen Lang finally walked into the ancestral hall.

Although he didn't know that Jin Wuwang was captured in this ancestral hall, although he didn't know that Wang Lianhua would use the evil plan against Jin Wuwang to deal with him. But he seemed to have a premonition, knowing that the ancestral hall was a vicious and ominous place.He walked very slowly, but he had to go in anyway. Zhu Qiqi watched him walk in, at first she still felt that Shen Lang was always bullying her and she was always being wronged, but as soon as Shen Lang disappeared, her heart suddenly beat violently. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that there must be an ambush in this ancestral hall, a murderous ambush, otherwise, why would someone cook braised pork at dawn?It's simply impossible.

Well, there must be a lot of articles in this braised pork - what articles, she can't guess. The more she couldn't figure it out, the more worried she became, the more she wanted to guess—could someone be hiding in the ancestral hall, waiting to give Shen Lang a secret fragrance, and he cooked the braised pork just to cover up the fragrance with the meat fragrance, Make it hard for Shen Lang to notice?By the way, it must be good.I have to tell Shen Lang, otherwise, if he doesn't pay attention, it will be too late when he finds the fragrance of the meat. As soon as she thought of this, she was about to run forward, but when she moved her foot, she stopped again.

Ah, no, with Shen Lang's nose, he still can't distinguish the smell of Mixiang?How could Wang Lianhua use such a naive method to deal with Shen Lang! Wang Lianhua has always been very clear about Shen Lang's abilities, and what he used to deal with Shen Lang must be weird and poisonous tricks that no one else can think of. What kind of poisonous plan would that be - ambushing on all sides in the ancestral hall, as soon as Shen Lang entered, arrows would be fired from all sides, and he would be caught off guard? No, this is not right, this method is too naive. There is a news agency in the ancestral hall—no, no.

There are several top masters in the ancestral hall, everyone's martial arts are almost the same as Shen Lang, waiting to besiege Shen Lang - no, that is simply impossible. These thoughts, the faster she thought about them, the more chaotic they became. She stared helplessly at the ancestral hall, only waiting for Shen Lang to exclaim from inside, to roar, to make the sound of clashing and clashing swords. But it was already time for Shen Lang to go in for a cup of tea, but there was no sound coming from the ancestral hall - not to mention roaring and clanging, there was almost no sound of coughing and sighing.

Not a sound. There is no sound, but it is really more frightening than any sound, and it makes people anxious. The wind is blowing, the cold morning wind is chilling. The snow in the morning in the severe winter is even more quiet. Zhu Qiqi bit her lip and rubbed her hands, almost going crazy. After another cup of tea time, no, it was almost time for a meal, but there was still no sound, not even the sound of farting. Shen Lang, Shen Lang, you should make some noise!If you are not in an ambush, you should come out and tell me to make me feel at ease. If you are in an ambush, you should call for help!You...you...you, were you murdered before you could even make a sound?

Could it be that Wang Lianhua's methods are really so poisonous and ruthless. Still no sound, no movement... Alright, Wang Lianhua, if you kill Shen Lang, I don't want to live anymore, you might as well kill me too, since death would be clean. Zhu Qiqi flew towards the ancestral hall as if flying. The sky has turned from blue-gray to pale white. The pale white dawn bathed in the dilapidated ancestral hall, making the ancestral hall look more mysterious, gloomy and ominous. The fire in the ancestral hall has not been extinguished, but the fire is very small. On the fire, the meat is still there, because the fire is small, the meat is not yet burnt. The faded, worn-out veil has been torn off—but I don’t know if it was torn off, pieces fell on the ground, piled up in a pile, blown by the wind, as if... It's like a dead body lying on the ground. The divine case has been kicked over by someone, and I don’t know who kicked it. There is a pool of black water stains between the fire and the divine case... Ah, it's not water stains, it's blood. The dilapidated ancestral hall was even more of a mess at the moment, and Shen Lang, who had clearly walked into the ancestral hall just now, could not be seen at the moment. There is no one, not even ghosts, where is Shen Lang? What about Shen Lang?Where did Shen Lang go?Has been killed?What about dead bodies? Zhu Qiqi was extremely astonished, horrified, and shouted loudly: "Shen Lang..." The sharp cry was like a knife, piercing the deathly silence at once, but it stopped suddenly, as if she was suddenly strangled by someone. Because, suddenly, a head appeared under the overturned divine case. Shen Lang's head. Shen Lang's head was exposed, and then retracted again. Zhu Qiqi flew over, hugged Shen Lang's neck, was surprised and joyful, and complained, panting and laughing: "You are still here, nothing happened to you, why don't you Tell me, it makes me anxious." Shen Lang didn't move his body, he just said coldly: "Go away." Zhu Qiqi was startled, and let go of his hand. In any case, no matter whether Shen Lang likes her or not, Shen Lang is always polite to her on weekdays, but never speaks harshly to her. Zhu Qiqi let go of his hand, and the circles of his eyes were red again.She was so worried about Shen Lang that her heart was about to break, but what she got at this moment was a cold reprimand. She stepped back involuntarily, her lips were about to be bitten to pieces—but no matter what, she couldn't help it, and tears fell down one after another. Shen Lang didn't even look at her, but stared straight ahead. Zhu Qiqi didn't see what he was looking at. At this moment, Zhu Qiqi only had Shen Lang in his eyes.She looked at Shen Lang, weeping, she was really disheartened for a while, and she murmured: "Forget it, forget it, why bother me! What am I doing for? Why can't I enjoy the blessings, instead Baba followed him and got angry with him?" She wiped away her tears and said to herself: "Okay, Shen Lang, Shen Lang, since you treat me like this, I... I will never see you again." However, her eyes seemed inseparable from Shen Lang. If she was asked to tell what is so good about Shen Lang, she would not be able to tell. In terms of boldness, he is not as good as Panda; in terms of calmness, he is not as good as Jin Wuwang; in terms of romantic, handsome, and understanding, he is not as good as Wang Lianhua. But somehow, she only had eyes for him.As long as she saw him, she felt happy; if she couldn't see him, she was always worried all day long. She didn't dare to think about what would happen to her if she never saw Shen Lang again. "Why, why did he treat me like this, and I still want to treat him like this?" For a moment, she didn't feel that there was a love-hate relationship, and she couldn't help crying loudly: "Shen Lang, I hate you, I hate you..." Shen Lang still didn't glance at her, his eyes were still staring straight ahead. Zhu Qiqi was so angry that his heart burst open, and hissed, "Are you a dead person? Talk to me, you...you...you..." I felt a surge of enthusiasm, that slender hand somehow raised up, and slapped Shen Lang on the face with a crisp, "right". Shen Lang didn't seem to notice it at all, and he still didn't move, but there was already a red palm print on that hateful and lovely face. Zhu Qiqi was anxious, hurt, sad, and regretful, and finally fell to the ground and cried bitterly: "Shen Lang, Shen Lang, why are you doing this to me? Why are you? You kill me, kill me, I'm going to kill you anyway. I don't want to live anymore." Her cry is like a cuckoo crying at night, which is heartbreaking. But Shen Lang still ignored her. I don't know how long she cried, but her crying finally faded away. Shen Lang said softly: "Are you better... Are you better?" Zhu Qiqi said happily: "Ah, Shen Lang still cares about me..." But Shen Lang continued: "Brother Jin... cheer up." Shen Lang was not talking to her. Zhu Qiqi was disappointed and surprised at the same time, and then he raised his head, and then saw that there was a person lying down in front of Shen Lang—it was Jin Wuwang. Jin Wuwang lay down in a pool of blood, his eyes closed tightly, like gold paper, his breathing was even more breathless, nine out of ten of his life was gone. How could the situation in this ancestral hall become like this? How did Jin Wuwang become like this? Where did Wang Lianhua and Jin Buhuan go? Zhu Qiqi saw Jin Wuwang's face at a glance, and then she saw his hand - one of his right arms had been severed. Blood, full of blood, covered in blood. Zhu Qiqi "Ah—" exclaimed. No wonder Shen Lang ignored her, Shen Lang was pressing Jin Wuwang's chest with his palm at this moment, using long internal strength to continue Jin Wuwang's life that was about to be interrupted. Zhu Qiqi's whole body trembled. "Brother Jin, Brother Jin, Brother Jin, why did you do this? Who hurt you?" She wanted to mourn and cry, but she could only grit her teeth and dare not make a sound.Her tears fell like broken pearls. This time, she shed tears for Jin Wuwang. "Brother Jin, you can't die, please, don't die..." She prayed in secret, with all her heart. "Shen Lang, please, save him, I believe you will be able to save him." Groan, once, twice... Jin Wuwang finally moaned and made a sound. Shen Lang's pale, dignified, and pained face was already covered with beads of sweat.It wasn't until this moment that the muscles at the corners of his mouth relaxed. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Jin Wuwang finally came back alive. The sky has become brighter before you know it. Gradually, Jin Wuwang began to breathe, and his chest heaved. Zhu Qiqi clenched her fists tightly and clenched her teeth - she also exerted all her strength, and she seemed to be struggling with Jin Wuwang on the verge of life and death. Finally, Jin Wuwang opened his eyes. He no longer had the scissors-like divine light of the past; his dim eyes turned around empty-handedly, and then looked at Shen Lang's face. He struggled and said in a trembling voice: "...Shen..." Shen Lang hurriedly said: "Brother Jin, don't talk. Well, everything is fine." Jin Wuwang stopped talking. But his eyes expressed endless pain, grief and sadness, as well as endless gratitude, relief and joy. He has returned from the dead, and the best friend of his life is at his side. There was a relieved smile on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly closed his eyes—the fierce battle just now was like a nightmare when he thought about it now. But he felt that the fierce battle and bloodshed just now were all worth it - if it weren't for the fierce battle just now, Shen Lang might have fallen into Wang Lianhua's trick. Zhu Qiqi also heaved a long sigh of relief, but still asked worriedly: "Brother Jin, are you alright?" Shen Lang said: "Hmph." He still didn't look good on Zhu Qiqi, but Zhu Qiqi had to endure it, and slowly put his head close to Jin Wuwang's ear, calling softly, "Brother Jin..." Shen Lang said coldly: "Go away, don't bother him." Zhu Qiqi retreated, lowered his head, and said quietly: "I didn't bother him, I... I..." Suddenly remembered something, he quickly touched left and right on his body, and finally found out a tinfoil bag, said happily: " I have medicine here." Shen Lang said: "What?" Zhu Qiqi said: "It is said that this healing medicine is from the imperial palace. My father spent a lot of effort to get it. I stole a pack before I left..." Shen Lang said: "Bring it." Zhu Qiqi said: "Have half applied externally and half taken internally." After Jin Wuwang took the medicine, his complexion improved a bit.Zhu Qiqi was busy adding some firewood, and the fire was burning vigorously again. In the firelight, Jin Wuwang's face seemed to have some rosy color. He opened his eyes again, looked at Shen Lang again, his eyes were full of gratitude, but he didn't say a word of thanks, he just said: "Okay, you are finally here." Shen Lang was finally able to laugh, and said with a smile: "Little brother is here, you...you still don't talk. Talking hurts." Jin Wuwang said: "Don't worry, I won't die anymore." Looking around again, seeing Zhu Qiqi, he smiled, but the smile was very short and disappeared immediately, his eyes were filled with hatred again and hissed: "Where is Wang Lianhua?" Shen Lang said: "I haven't seen him." Jin Wuwang said bitterly: "This villain... a villain." Zhu Qiqi couldn't help but said, "Brother Jin was hurt by these villains?" Jin Wuwang said: "Although he hurt me, he may not feel better." Zhu Qiqi said: "This is exactly..." She originally wanted to ask "what's going on here", but she took a look at Shen Lang and immediately changed her mind: "After all... talking is hurtful, Brother Jin, you should take a rest and talk slowly." She actually suppressed her temper, which is indeed a rare thing - she stole a look at Shen Lang, only hoping that Shen Lang would give her a smile of approval. There was no smile, not even a trace of a smile, Shen Lang didn't look at her at all. Even Jin Wuwang didn't look at her.She couldn't bear the feeling of being belittled and indifferent, but she had to bear it. I only heard Jin Wuwang say to Shen Lang: "This matter is boring in my heart, and I feel even more uncomfortable. You'd better let me talk about it." Shen Lang said with a smile: "Brother Jin, if you feel you can speak, then you can." Jin Wuwang said: "I chased all the way here, smelling the smell of meat, and broke into the ancestral hall, but I didn't know that this ancestral hall is a trap for people, and I was caught as soon as I entered the ancestral hall." Zhu Qiqi immediately looked at Shen Lang and said with a smile: "Nothing can be hidden from Shen Lang, he smells the smell of meat, and he knows immediately..." Shen Lang said coldly: "Stop interrupting." Zhu Qiqi wanted to please Shen Lang, but it was no fun, tears began to roll in her eyes again.She lowered her head so that Jin Wuwang would not see her. Her heart ached and her face had a fever. It took a while before she realized that Jin Wuwang was still telling the story of his adventures. I just heard Jin Wuwang say: "... At that time, when I want to be stabbed, those villains have already regarded me as a fish in the net, a piece of meat on the ground, and I can only be slaughtered by them, so I have to speak in front of me." , I have no scruples... Only then did I know that Wang Lianhua, the villain, has a deep palace and a crowd of followers, which is beyond my imagination." Shen Lang sighed: "This person is really smart, but it's a pity that he was mistaken by his cleverness." Jin Wuwang said: "Later, Zuo Gonglong, one of the three elders of the Beggar Clan, came. This guy is usually hypocritical, but he was bought by Wang Lianhua, just because he wanted to become the leader of the Clan." Shen Lang moved and said: "Xu Ruoyu's secret is indeed related to Wang Lianhua." Jin Wuwang wondered, "Xu Ruoyu, what's his secret?" Shen Lang said: "His secret, presumably is the rebellion of the Beggar Clan..." Now tell me how Xu Ruoyu came here and how he died. Jin Wuwang was silent for a while, and said: "That day he, the three elders of the beggar gang and four other people must have been in this ancestral hall; when it was midnight, it must have been Wang Lianhua who came." Shen Lang smiled and said: "Xu Ruoyu didn't know that I already knew Wang Lianhua, and saw that he had such a big conspiracy, so he rushed to inform me." Jin Wuwang said: "But how does he know where you are?" Shen Lang said: "At first, Zuo Gonglong must have regarded him as his confidant. Of course, Wang Lianhua told me about my whereabouts. He must have heard it from the sidelines." Jin Wuwang said: "What a powerful character Wang Lianhua is, of course Xu Ruoyu wants to do something, how can he escape his vicious eyes." Shen Lang said: "Exactly. His whereabouts have obviously been discovered by Wang Lianhua, so he was injured before he found me, but somehow he escaped from the pursuit..." Zhu Qiqi couldn't help but said: "At that time, Wang Lianhua must have gone to the secret cave on the mountain and was busy trying to kill us, so Xu Ruoyu escaped even though he was injured." There was a slight pause in his voice, and he said again: "He knew that although he escaped, there must still be people following him, so he naturally hid himself in hiding. He didn't dare to come to see us until midnight, when people were still in the deepest of dreams." Jin Wuwang smiled and said, "I don't think you've been so clear in your recent analysis." Shen Lang said coldly: "At the moment we are discussing the overall situation, so why bother to think about such trivial matters—even if you are right, how will it help the overall situation, you'd better talk less." Zhu Qiqi was happy, but she didn't know that another basin of cold water was poured on her head, she couldn't hold it any longer, but she couldn't bear to leave, when will she see Shen Lang after leaving? Jin Wuwang said dejectedly: "That's right, this is indeed a trivial matter. No matter where Wang Lianhua was at that time, he has already arrived at this moment; no matter how Xu Ruoyu escaped at that time, at this moment he is... dead. " Chief Shen Langyang sighed: "It's just pity that he risked his life to tell me Wang Lianhua's secret, but he didn't know that I already knew Wang Lianhua's conspiracy. He...he died really unjustly." Jin Wuwang said in a deep voice: "In life, there are some things that you have to do even if you die. As for whether it is useful to do it, it is another matter...Although Xu Ruoyu did this useless thing desperately, but he did it for the sake of it." If he died benevolently and righteously, his life can be regarded as a life without any regrets, so why should he die so unfairly?" Shen Lang moved his face and said: "The words of gold and jade, my younger brother bows to you." Jin Wuwang sighed: "I just said these words, but you always do it. I am far inferior to you in my views on life and death." Shen Lang said: "The less afraid of death, the less likely to die..." Jin Wuwang suddenly laughed, and said: "This is the kind words of gold and jade, and the world must listen to it. If I, Jin Wuwang, were afraid of death just now, I am afraid that I would not live to this moment." Shen Lang said: "Wang Lianhua..." Jin Wuwang looked extremely excited, and his pale cheeks were already flushed. Without waiting for Shen Lang to speak, he cut off his mouth and said: "At that time, Wang Lianhua, Jin Buhuan, Zuo Gonglong... no matter who they were, they already regarded me as a person who must die, not only humiliated me in every possible way, but also treated me in front of me. In front of me, I plan how to harm you. On the surface, I pretend to be suppressing my anger, but in fact, I have already planned in secret." Shen Lang said with a smile: "Although Wang Lianhua's eyes are vicious, they must no longer be able to see your thoughts... Who in the world can guess your thoughts?" Jin Wuwang said: "Although he can guess my intentions, he never thought that my attitude of grief, indignation and patience at that time was artificial, and even the inability to move my body was half fake." Finally, Zhu Qiqi couldn't bear it anymore and said: "But...but haven't you already been tapped by him?" Jin Wuwang said: "At that time, when he pointed at me unexpectedly, although I couldn't dodge my body, luck blocked me in the dark, and his finger didn't penetrate my acupoint." Shen Lang said: "Famous martial arts masters in the world, when it comes to the art of luck, Chai Yuguan was already one of them in the past. After the Hengshan meeting, his achievements must be even more astonishing, but I didn't expect that Brother Jin would also get it from someone else." The trick here is to be able to use a stream of true energy so well and skillfully." A trace of sadness appeared on Jin Wuwang's face, and he said: "Chai Yuguan is good or evil, regardless of whether this person is good or evil, but he really knows people, uses people's ability, and never hides selfishness from those under his sect." Shen Lang sighed: "A generation of heroes has their own abilities that are beyond the reach of others. If there is no extraordinary ability, how can they do extraordinary evil... Sigh! To tell you the truth, even I am eager to see him Human style." Jin Wuwang said: "But don't you treat him..." Shen Lang said: "Although I hate his vicious behavior, but I really admire his extraordinary wisdom and ability." Jin Wuwang was silent for a long while, obviously not wanting to talk about this generation of heroes who are so admirable and extraordinary. So, he got back to the topic and said: "Although I was lucky enough to resist at that time, but Wang Lianhua's finger strength is no small matter after all, I still feel half body numb. If I make a move at that time, it is really difficult to block his move." Shen Lang sighed: "Wang Lianhua, why is he not the hero of today." Jin Wuwang continued: "I'm waiting for death, so that my luck can be restored in the dark, and then I can hear their secrets. When they guess that you must come too, I want to wait for you to come before I make a move." Zhu Qiqi's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but said again: "Wang Lianhua really guessed that Shen Lang was coming?" Jin Wuwang said: "Wang Lianhua's scheming spirit is extraordinary. He is certain that you will follow in the footsteps of those traitors from the beggar gang, and he is already prepared to treat each other with evil plans." Zhu Qiqi sighed: "Although Wang Lianhua is clever, but Shen Lang...well, this point has already been figured out by Shen Lang..." Speaking of this, he secretly went to look at Shen Lang again. Shen Lang said coldly: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb." Zhu Qiqi said: "I...I...I'll go get some more firewood." Turning around, he ran to the fire, "chih", a tear fell into the flames. Jin Wuwang looked at her twisting shoulders and sighed softly, "Poor child..." Shen Lang didn't change his face, and said: "What happened next?" Jin Wuwang said: "Later... well, they actually wanted to send me to another place before you came, so I knew I was outnumbered, so I had no choice but to take action." Shen Lang glanced around at the chaotic scene in the ancestral hall, and said, "Thinking about it, it must be a thrilling battle." Jin Wuwang said: "A fierce battle, it's more than just a fierce battle. It's not a fight between humans, but a fight between wild animals! With the martial arts of Wang Lianhua, Jin Buhuan, and Zuo Gonglong, I really can't parry..." He smiled proudly, and continued: "But Jin Buchang, that fiend and clown, felt chilled when he saw me; Zuo Gonglong, although he had been through battle for a long time, was also startled by my murderous aura. Only five or six are successful; only Wang Lianhua...Wang Lianhua...well, he is really a jackal among men." Shen Lang said: "Could it be that his martial arts are as vicious as his wisdom?" Jin Wuwang said: "This man's knowledge of martial arts is complicated, and his moves are vicious, which is really amazing. The most frightening thing is that his quick scheming has fueled his fierce flames of martial arts." Shen Lang said: "How do you say that?" Jin Wuwang said: "Because of his extensive martial arts skills and dexterous scheming, before you make a move, he has already guessed which move you are going to use, moreover, the coordination of his heart and hands is like an arm and a finger." , in that moment of invincibility, before you make a move, he has already blocked your move." Shen Lang said: "How is his martial arts compared to Master Tianfa?" Jin Wuwang said: "Heaven's law is absolutely unable to take his twenty moves." Shen Lang lost his voice and said, "It's so powerful." Jin Wuwang sneered and said: "You must be doubting in your heart, since his martial arts are so powerful, how can I injure him." Shen Lang naturally knew his arrogance, and said with a smile: "Little brother has no such intention." Jin Wuwang said: "In terms of martial arts, it's really hard for me to hurt him, but you know, when fighting with others, the most powerful martial arts is the word 'desperate'." "If one man works hard, it will be difficult for ten thousand people", Shen Lang naturally knew this. Jin Wuwang smiled bitterly and said: "I fought this right arm, Fang Zi hurt him with the palm, but unfortunately I was already fainted at that time, I don't even know how it hurt him." Shen Lang said: "How can flesh and blood resist your palm. If his injury is not serious, how can he allow me to talk to you so peacefully?" Only then did Jin Wuwang show a smile on his face, and said, "That's right, I'm afraid that his injuries are serious, and he doesn't care about hurting anyone anymore." Shen Lang stared at him for a while, then sighed and said, "But brother Jin...why do you have to do this?" Jin Wuwang stared blankly and said, "What about me? Did I do something wrong?" Shen Lang sighed: "You treat me like this, but teach me how to be at ease?" Jin Wuwang said: "For you, why did I ever do anything to you? This matter was my carelessness, and I fell into his scheme. What does it have to do with you?" Shen Lang said: "But you don't have to take action." Jin Wuwang grimaced and said, "Nonsense, why don't I take action!" Shen Lang said sadly: "If you didn't make a move at that time, but just walked away, how could the three of them stop you? But you knew that you were invincible, but you still wanted to make a move, just for me...just to make them powerless to come again kill me." Jin Wuwang sneered and said: "Nonsense, I, Jin Wuwang, have only known myself in my whole life, and I don't know anyone else, let alone I will work hard for you, I'm afraid you are talking in your sleep." Shen Lang said: "Although your appearance is as cold as ice, in fact, your heart is as hot as fire. You are acting like this just to make me feel at ease, isn't it..." He smiled sadly, and continued: "But you don't know, the more you are like this, the more... well, the more uncomfortable I feel, I...I..." Jin Wuwang said loudly: "Why do you feel uncomfortable? You pity me for being disabled, don't you... Hmph, even though Jin Wuwang only has one hand left, it is still a thousand times stronger than those two hands. Believe it or not?" Shen Lang said: "I...I..." Jin Wuwang scolded: "Stop talking. Why are you acting like a child today? You have saved my life several times, but I have never thanked you. What are you still talking about?" Shen Lang laughed suddenly and said: "Yes! A mere arm, what is it to a man like me? Jin Wuwang with one hand is a hundred times stronger than Wang Lianhua with two hands!" One of these two people was still lying in a pool of blood, seriously injured, and the other had a difficult future and was full of worries, but at this moment, the two of them laughed out loud. Although Zhu Qiqi stood with his back to the two of them, their words, every word and every word, had been left in her heart, and for a while, she had tears streaming down her cheeks. But these are not tears of sadness, but tears of emotion—such a good man deserves all the girls in the world to shed tears for them. The two laughed at each other, and Jin Wuwang felt that his strength was getting stronger and stronger, and he recovered so quickly miraculously, he was naturally happy. But suddenly, he found that Shen Lang's laughter became weaker and weaker. Then, he realized that Shen Lang's hand had never left his body, and had been feeding him with his own true energy. No wonder he was able to speak so eloquently after recovering from serious injuries. True qi is the life and blood of a martial arts practitioner. For a person like Shen Lang, true qi is more important than anything else. However, at this moment, Shen Lang gave this precious thing like life to Jin Wuwang without hesitation, so Jin Wuwang became stronger, but he himself became weaker. Jin Wuwang suddenly stopped laughing, and said sharply, "Let go of your hands." Shen Lang smiled and said, "Okay...okay..." He was really powerless to support him, and he didn't feel like leaning on the divine case. None of these movements escaped Zhu Qiqi's eyes and ears.She wanted to ignore it, but her heart suddenly jumped, and she told herself: "I can't give up on such a man. If I let him go, I'm afraid I won't be able to find another man like him. Will never find it." "I must not give up on him, otherwise I will regret and suffer. No matter how he treats me, I will fight for him. What's wrong with being wronged..." So she took the barbecue from the fire, turned around, and walked back to Shen Lang. Barbecue, the skin is a little burnt, but the aroma is more attractive. Zhu Qiqi smiled softly: "You are tired, how about something to eat?" Shen Lang didn't even look at him, and said coldly, "Take it away." Zhu Qiqi said: "I have tried it with a silver hairpin, the meat is good." Shen Lang said: "Take it away." Zhu Qiqi bit his lip and said: "If you don't eat this meat, there must be a village nearby. If you want to eat, I'll buy it for you...Brother Jin, it's time for him to eat." Shen Lang said: "Don't worry." Zhu Qiqi said: "I...I just want to do something for you, and..." Shen Lang said coldly: "Do you want to do something for me? Well, do something for me." Zhu Qiqi said happily: "What? No matter what, I will do it." Shen Lang said: "Please go farther away, the farther you go, the better, if you go so far that I can never see you, it will be considered a good deed for me, and I will be grateful." Zhu Qiqi was taken aback for a moment, and tears filled his face again, but he still smiled and said, "I...I...I..." She glanced at Jin Wuwang.Although Jin Wuwang was by her side, she didn't care anymore, she didn't care about anything, she was determined to sacrifice everything, just for Shen Lang. She gritted her teeth and continued: "What did I do to make you angry? Tell me, if I was really wrong, I will definitely change it in the future, and I will change everything." These words, which she was unwilling to say to the death, actually said it at this moment——after speaking, although she couldn't help sobbing, she had to hold it back. This silent weeping, this weeping with laughter, really implies endless joy, endless true feelings, endless bitterness, and endless grievances. Shen Lang finally turned his head, and his eyes finally focused on her face. Her face is like pear blossoms with rain. But his gaze was still as cold as iron and as hard as stone. This cold gaze made Zhu Qiqi tremble even more, her whole body and heart trembled, she couldn't help but backed away, and said in a trembling voice: "What did I do wrong... What did I do wrong..." Shen Lang sneered and said: "What did you do wrong, you don't know? If it wasn't for you, how could Bai Feifei be taken away? If it wasn't for you, how could Big Brother Jin become like this?" Zhu Qiqi said: "This...it's all my fault..." Shen Lang said sharply: "I don't blame you, who is to blame? If you are willing to think about others, if you have the slightest sympathy for others, none of this will happen." Zhu Qiqi burst into tears like rain, tremblingly said: "I...I..." Shen Lang scolded: "You...you are just a selfish, arrogant, willful, and jealous little wicked woman! As long as it makes you happy, you don't care about other people's affairs...as long as it makes you happy... Be happy yourself, even if you cut other people's hearts into pieces, you don't care!" These words, like a whip, lashed at Zhu Qiqi's body, making a "buzzing" sound in her ears, and finally fell to the ground. Ever since she was a child, no one has ever scolded her like this. At this moment, Shen Lang scolded her so much that she was stunned, and couldn't help asking himself: "Am I really that bad...Am I really that bad..." In an instant, the faces of Panda Er, Bai Feifei, Fang Qianli, Zhan Yingsong...these people seemed to shake before her eyes. These people have all been hurt by her, some have hurt their face, some have hurt their self-esteem, and some have broken their hearts for her. "But I was also unintentional. I never intentionally hurt anyone." Shen Lang said: "That's right, you didn't hurt anyone intentionally. But harming others unintentionally is actually more hateful than intentional... You only regard yourself as a human being, and others should respect and love you. They should all be trampled under your feet, and it seems right for you to hurt others." Zhu Qiqi said: "No... I never meant that." Shen Lang said: "You still said you didn't!" Zhu Qiqi burst into tears and said: "Okay, if you say I have it, let me have it, but I... I am not sensible, I don't understand anything, can't you forgive me?" Shen Lang said coldly: "It can't be done." Zhu Qiqi thumped the ground with his hands, and hissed: "Many people who have done wrong things... have done more wrong things than me, but you have forgiven them, you... why can't you forgive me?" Shen Lang said: "I have forgiven you too many times." Zhu Qiqi gritted his teeth, struggled to stand up, and stood in front of Shen Lang. Holding back her tears, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, you can't forgive me, and I don't ask you to forgive me. Since you have killed many unforgivable bad people, you can kill me too." 沈浪冷冷道：“杀你，我也犯不着。” 朱七七道：“你……你好狠的心！我什么都不求你，只求能死在你手上，你连这都不答应，你难道竟不屑于杀我？” 沈浪不再说话。 朱七七再次扑倒，痛哭道：“老天呀老天，你为何对我这么坏……再恶的恶人，至少还有死在沈浪手上的福气，而我……我……我现在本就不想活了，但是……但是我……我竟连死在他手上的福气都没有。” 沈浪闭上了眼睛。金无望早已闭上了眼睛。 世上没有任何言语，能形容朱七七此刻的感情。 她恨，她恨自己，也恨沈浪。 她虽然恨，却又无可奈何。 突然间，她一跃而起，发疯似的，将地上可以拾起来的任何东西，都拾起了，摔在沈浪身上。 她疯狂地嘶呼着道：“我恨你……恨死你，一辈子都恨你……” 她疯狂般转身奔了出去。 沈浪睁开了眼，却仍动也不动，宛如老僧入定。 金无望也睁开了眼，静静地凝注着他。 良久，沈浪终于笑了笑道：“我……” 金无望道：“你的心，难道是铁石铸成？” 沈浪笑容里有些凄凉之意，喃喃道：“我的心……谁知道我的心……” 金无望道：“你怎忍如此对她？” 沈浪道：“我又该如何对她？” 金无望默然，过了半晌，缓缓道：“她难道真的不可原谅？” 沈浪道：“她难道可以原谅？” 金无望叹道：“就算她不可原谅，你也该原谅她的。” 沈浪道：“为什么？” 金无望目光凝注着那灰黯的屋顶，缓缓道：“你到了像我这样的年纪时，你就会知道，世上的美女虽多，但要找一个爱你如此之深的，却不容易……太不容易。” 他倏然收回目光，目注沈浪，接道：“你总该承认，她确是真心爱你的；你总该承认，她做事确无恶心。你对别人都那般宽厚，为何对她却不？” 沈浪垂下眼帘，亦自默然半晌，缓缓道：“我对别人都能宽厚，却不能对她宽厚……” 金无望怔了半晌，终也颔首叹道：“不错，你对别人都宽厚，对她却不能。” 两人许久没有说话，都在沉思着——他们究竟在思索着一些什么？是否在思索着人与人之间微妙复杂的关系？ 然后，沈浪又道：“别人，也都可原谅她，但我却不能。” 这一次，金无望未再思索，他立刻就颔首道：“不错，别人都可以原谅她，但你却不能……别人的责任只有他自己，只要对自己尽责，便可交代了，所以纵有一些情感的困扰也不妨，但你……唉，你肩上的责任却太重……太重了。” 沈浪抬起头，黯然笑道：“还是金兄知我。” 金无望道：“只有一个知道，不太少么？” 沈浪缓缓道：“人生得一知己，也就足够了。” 火堆烧得正烈，祠堂里开始温暖了起来——却不知是火造成的温暖，还是这友情造成的温暖？ 又过了许久…… 沈浪道：“无论如何，但愿她……” 金无望道：“无论如何，但愿她……” 两人同时说话，说出了同样的七个字，又同时闭口，只因两人都已知道，他们要说的话，本是一样的。 “无论如何，但愿她能活得平安幸福。” 这真诚的祝福，朱七七早已听不到了。 她此刻已奔出了多远，她自己也不知道。 总之，那必定已是很远很远一段路了。 她的脸，开始被风刮疼，然后，变得麻木，此刻，却又疼痛起来，像是有许多蚂蚁在咬着。 她的泪，已流干；她的脚，已变得有千斤般重。 好了，前面就有屋宇。 她加急脚步，奔过去——此刻，人类的本能，已使她忘记一切悲哀，她所想的，只有一碗热汤，一张床。 但前面没有屋宇，也没有热汤，更没有床。 屋宇的影子，其实只是座坟墓。 显然这座富贵人家的坟墓，建造得十分堂皇。 朱七七的心，又沉落了下去，宛如沉落在水底——又是失望，失望……为什么她总是失望？ 她将身子蜷曲在墓碑后——只有这里是四下惟一挡风之处。她脱下靴子，用力搓着她的足趾…… 但，突然，她的手停顿了。 在奔跑时，她什么也未想，此刻，千万种思潮，又泛起在她心头。她爱，她恨，爱得发狂，恨得发狂。 “为什么他对别人都好，对我如此无情？” 她恨沈浪。 “为什么别人都对我那么好，我反而对他们不理不睬，而沈浪对我这么坏，我反而忘不了他？” She hates herself. 她的心乱成一团，乱如麻……但，突然，所有紊乱的思潮都停顿了，一个声音，钻入她耳朵。 是人说话的声音。 但这声音却是自坟墓中发出来的。 千真万确，每个字都是自坟墓中发出来的。 坟墓中竟会发出声音，难道死人也会说话？ 朱七七吓得整个人都凉了。 但她虽是女子，究竟和别的女子不同。江湖中的风风浪浪，她经历得太多了，她立刻就想到—— “这坟墓只怕又是什么秘密帮会的秘密巢穴。” 她目光正在四下搜索，已听到那墓碑下传来一阵脚步声。 有人要自坟墓里走出来了。 朱七七方才虽已全无气力，此刻却一跃而起——这是人类的本能潜力。她一跃而起，掠出丈余。 丈余外有个石翁仲。 她躲到石翁仲后，仍忍不住偷眼往外瞧。 只见那墓碑已开始转动，露出了个地洞，然后，地洞中露出一个头来……两个头，两个人自地中钻出。 这是两个穿着羊皮袄的大汉，虽然在冰天雪地中，两个人仍是挺胸凸腹，显得和熊一般的神气。 先出来的一人，四下瞧了瞧——他自然想不到这里还会有人，瞧得自然很马虎，只不过是对自己交代交代而已。 后出来的一人，瞧也未瞧，便又去推那墓碑——他气力显然不小，那墓碑被他一推，便又复原了。 于是两人大步走下墓碑前的石阶，口中却在嘟嘟囔囔。 其中一人道：“这残废是什么东西，派头倒不小，这么样的天，还要咱们跑几十里地去为他配药，这不是成心折磨人么？” 另一人道：“王老大，你也莫埋怨了。不管他是谁，总之和咱们头儿的交情不浅，否则头儿又怎会带他到这里来？” 王老大道：“哼，若不是瞧这个，我会听他的？” 那人笑道：“不管怎样，反正咱们整天躲在里面，虽然有酒有女人，也觉得闷的慌，趁这机会出来走走也好。” 王老大敞笑道：“对，咱们就趁机会逛他个半天，反正瞧那残废的模样，就算不吃药，也是死不了的。” 两人说说笑笑，走得远了。 朱七七直等他们身影完全瞧不见，方自走出，也不知是有意，是无意，也走到墓碑前，伸手一推。 她若不动这墓碑，倒也罢了，哪知她一推就动，这一动之下，她的命运又改变了。 墓碑一动，朱七七心也动了起来。 “这究竟是什么人的秘窟？那'残废'是谁？那'头儿'又是谁？将秘窟造在坟墓里，八成不是好人，我得去瞧瞧。” 她天生就是好事的劣根性，没有事也要找些事做，又何况她此刻遇着的又确是十分离奇诡秘之事？ 常言道：“江山易改，本性难移。” 虽在如此情况下，她脾气还是改不了。 墓碑一移开，地洞方露出，她就要往里走。 but…… “不对，这是什么人的秘密，这是好人坏人，与我又有何关？我为何要多事？难怪沈浪说我……” 她本已要转身，但想到沈浪，她的心又变了。 “沈浪，我为何直到此刻还要听他的话？反正我已不想活了，就算进去遇险又算得什么？” 她跺了跺脚，立下决心。 “我想做什么就做什么，谁也别想管我。” 她终于钻了进去。 天下所有的密窟，所有的地道，差不多全是一样的——阴森，黝黯，带着股令人头晕的霉湿气。 这地道比较特别一点的是，既无人防守，也无机关。这或许是因为这地方实在太秘密了，别人根本不会找进来，所以根本无需防守。也或许是因为这墓里的主人自视极高，根本就未将别人放在心上。 朱七七也不管这究竟是为什么，合起墓碑，就往里走。有十多级石阶通下去。 然后，就是间小厅，布置得竟也和普通富贵人家的客厅差不了多少。 朱七七探首一瞧，厅里没有人。 她居然就这样走了进去，她根本不怕被人瞧见——她现在实已有点自暴自弃，只觉得被人发觉了最好。 厅的前面，有扇门，朱七七笔直走了过去。 就在这时，门里有笑语声传了出来。 “公子你想得端的周到，生怕你属下在这里闷得慌，还找来这两位娇滴滴的大姑娘陪着，真是好极妙极。” 朱七七身子陡然一震，脚步立刻停了。 这竟是金不换的笑声！这恶贼，怎会在这儿？ 只听另一人道：“金兄有所不知，公子处处替人着想，才能成得了大事。此地若非如此享受，又有谁心甘情愿的耽在这里？” 这语声也很熟，很熟……是谁呢？ 朱七七想了想，终于恍然：“这是左公龙。” 金不换笑道：“不错，别人若不心甘情愿，纵然无奈耽在这里，也会偷偷溜出去。这么一来，却用鞭子也赶不出去了。” 一人笑道：“但如今却便宜了你。小玲，还不倒酒？” 这赫然竟是王怜花的声音。 但奇怪的是，王怜花此刻的声音，竟是有气无力，而且说完了一句话，就不住喘气，不住咳嗽。 朱七七一颗心，又几乎要跳出来。 她站在那里，退也不是，进也不是。 门，是关着的。 但门底下却有一条空隙，有灯光透出来。 朱七七呆了半晌，咬了咬牙，走到门口，蹲下身子，俯下头，用一只眼睛，向那条缝里瞧进去—— 只见里面屋子中央，是个火烧得正旺的铜火盆，火盆边有张摆满酒菜的桌子，金不换和左公龙就坐在那里。 有个穿着一身红衣裳，虽蓬着头发，但脸上却打扮得妖妖娆娆的女子，正在火盆边弄火，那腰就和蛇似的。 另一个穿绿衣服的女子，却坐在金不换怀里，脸上红馥馥，带着笑，但一双水汪汪的眼睛里却充满了厌恶之色。 王怜花呢？ 朱七七瞧了一转，才瞧见王怜花。他此刻正倒卧在一张虎皮榻上，那张俊俏的脸，苍白得有如死人一般。 金无望说得不错，这恶魔果然已受了伤。 就连左公龙、金不换，似也负了伤。左公龙右臂已被包扎，用根布带吊在脖子上，伤得也像不轻。 金不换伤得却显然不重，此刻又吃又喝，还不忘时时去欺负欺负坐在他怀里那可怜的女孩子。 但他却又为何偏偏要别人去为他配药——那两个穿着羊皮袄的大汉，口中骂的“残废”自然就是他了。 朱七七再也想不到自己误打误撞竟又撞入了王怜花的秘窟。人世间的遇合，为什么时常都是如此离奇凑巧？ 屋子里最失意的是王怜花，最得意的自然是金不换。金不换大笑大嚷，王怜花却连说话的气力都没有。 他似乎很疲倦，很想睡，但金不换却让他睡不着。 金不换索性将那水蛇腰的红衣姑娘也拉了过去，左拥右抱，那两个女孩子嘴里吃吃的笑，心里偷偷的骂。 不但朱七七瞧得又气又恨，就连左公龙也似瞧不过了。 左公龙道：“金兄倒开心得很。” 金不换大笑道：“我正是开心得很。有这么标致的大姑娘在身旁，怎会不开心……来，小玲，让你金大爷亲一亲。” 左公龙冷冷道：“在经过方才那种事后，金兄还能开心，这倒当真不容易。” 金不换道：“方才之事……嘿嘿，那不是早巳过去了，金无望那厮，眼见也是活不成了，咱们还不该开心？” 左公龙冷笑道：“金兄那时若是再补金无望一刀，他倒当真活不成了，只可惜……金兄那时走得却太匆忙了些。” 金不换嘻嘻笑道：“我走得匆忙，左兄难道走得不匆忙么？小弟瞧见王公子受伤不敢再留在那里，左兄难道不是么？” 左公龙面上一阵青，一阵白，再也说不出话来。 金不换却大笑道：“事过境迁，左兄也该开心才是……小芳，快站起来唱个曲儿给你左大爷解解闷。” 那绿衣姑娘低着头，道：“我不会唱。” 金不换道：“你娘的，干这行连曲儿都不会唱！” 水蛇腰小玲赔笑道：“她真的不会，我来侍候大爷们一段吧。” 金不换道：“谁要你唱！小芳，你不会唱就侍候大爷们一段舞……你娘的，连舞都不会，随便动动手动动脚不就成了么。” 那小芳嘟着嘴站了起来，挥挥手，抬抬腿，就像个木头人似的。小玲赶紧赔着笑，唱了起来。 “豆蔻花开三月三，一个虫儿往里钻，钻了半日，钻不里去，爬到花儿上打秋千，肉儿小心肝，我不开了，你怎么钻？” 金不换拍掌大笑道：“肉儿小心肝，你不开了，我也要钻，瞧你怎么办……” 左公龙皱眉道：“公子还得安歇，金兄也歇歇吧。” 金不换笑道：“王公子么……嘿嘿，反正他也活不长了，趁着还有一口气的时候，瞧瞧乐子，有何不好。” 这句话说将出来，门里门外，六个人俱都大吃一惊。 左公龙面色大变，讷讷道：“金……金兄莫……非在说笑？” 金不换道：“小弟从来不说笑的。” 王怜花笑道：“金兄怎知小弟活不长了？” 他虽然装作若无其事，其实面色也有些变了。 金不换道：“我自然知道。” 左公龙道：“公子虽然中了金无望一掌，但那厮的掌力，又怎伤得了公子？不出七日，公子便可复原了。” 金不换道：“我却说他活不过今日。” 左公龙失色道：“你……疯了，胡说八道。” 金不换道：“我说他活不过今日，你可敢和我打赌么？” 王怜花咯咯笑道：“不想小弟的死期，金兄倒知道了，只可惜小弟这里什么都准备得有，就是未准备棺材。” 金不换道：“那也无妨，等你死了后，就将你尸身，送到仁义庄，那仁义庄中，自然会为你准备棺材的。” 他说得虽然平平淡淡，就好像这本是天经地义之事，但左公龙却听得脸黄了，讷讷的道：“金兄你这是什么意思？” 金不换道：“我这是什么意思，你还不知道？” 灯光下，只见他满面俱是狞笑，剩下的那只色眯眯的眼睛里，此刻却散发着一股狼一般的光芒。 左公龙机伶伶打了寒噤道：“小……弟不知。”
