The moonlight shone on the knife in Lian Chengbi's hand. The light of the knife was still crystal clear, like a pool of autumn water. There was no blood on the knife, nor even on Chengbi's pale face. He stroked the blade in his hand, and suddenly sighed again and again. , said: "It really is a weapon that is unparalleled in the world, and it really has a name." Xiao Shishilang looked at him, with a strange expression in his eyes again, but he didn't speak, and of course no one else could speak. In the cabin, only the sound of rapid breathing could be heard, the mace was lowered, and the hook and sickle There was no light, and the two of them were ready to slip away slowly.

Lian Chengbi suddenly waved and said, "Brother He Ping, please come and talk." "Hook and sickle" hesitated, finally came over, forced a smile and said, "What are your orders, young master?" Lian Chengbi said: "I just want to ask one thing." He Ping breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't dare." Lian Chengbi said: "Do you know why I killed Hua Ruyu?" He Ping shook his head immediately. He is not an idiot, "People who know too much will never live long", of course he understands this truth. Lian Chengbi said: "You really don't know?"

He Ping said, "I really don't know." Lian Chengbi sighed, and said, "If you don't even know about this kind of thing, what's the point of being alive?" He Ping's complexion changed, and suddenly he turned over in the air, a crescent-shaped hooked sickle has been sharply cut from mid-air. His hooked sickle is originally a secret from the East China Sea. It has strange moves and quick shots. It can indeed be regarded as the best in the world A top-notch expert, when the knife was cut off, the cold light flashed, the wind of the knife howled, and he used offense as defense, first blocking his own retreat.

It's a pity that he still cut the deer knife every now and then, with a "ding", the hook and sickle fell to the ground, and the light of the knife flashed again, blood splashed out. He Ping's people also suddenly fell from mid-air and landed in a pool of his own blood. Lian Chengbi struck out with a knife, and didn't even look at him anymore, turned his head and said, "Brother Zheng Gang, I also have something to ask." Zheng Gang held his sterling silver mace tightly in his hand, and said, "I can hear what you say." Of course he refused to come over, unexpectedly Lian Chengbi walked over, he took two steps back, there was no way to retreat, and suddenly said loudly: "I have never had any contact with the surname Hua, even if you cut him ten more times, I will not." I'll say something more."

Lian Chengbi said lightly: "I just asked you, do you know why I wanted to kill him?" Zheng Gang nodded immediately, he is not stupid, of course he would never say "I don't know" again. Lian Chengbi said: "Do you know what I am for?" Zheng Gang said: "We were here to kill Xiao Shishilang, but you suddenly changed your mind." Lian Chengbi said: "Speak on!" Zheng Gang's face was blushing, and he finally mustered up his courage, and continued: "Being rebellious in battle is a taboo of the 'Tianzong'. You are afraid that he will reveal this secret, so you simply kill him to silence it."

Lian Chengbi sighed again, and said, "You know even this kind of thing, how can I let you live?" Zheng Gang's complexion also changed, and he suddenly roared angrily. The mace in his left hand "swept thousands of troops", and the mace in his right hand "overwhelmed Mount Tai". The move was fierce and unstoppable, but unfortunately he took a step too late, the sharp blade struck him like a bolt of lightning. — Do you know the power and speed of lightning? There was still no blood on the knife. Lian Chengbi stared at the blade, eyes full of admiration and love, and murmured: "It really is a sharp weapon that is unparalleled in the world, and it really deserves its name."

He said this sentence again, and his voice was full of appreciation and love. Feng Siniang suddenly said: "It's been a long time, your moves don't seem to be slow at all." Lian Chengbi said: "This knife is not blunt either." Feng Siniang said: "I only know that your swordsmanship is very high, but I didn't expect you to use a knife." Lian Chengbi said: "Swords and swords are sharp weapons for killing people, and I will kill people." Feng Siniang forced a smile, and said: "A person who knows how to use a knife, if he has such a knife, will he give it back to others?"

Lian Chengbi said: "No." He stroked the blade again, and suddenly waved his hand, and the knife in his hand flew out. The sword was shining like a rainbow, and it flew towards Xiao Shishilang, but the one in front was not the blade, but the handle. Lian Chengbi said lightly: "I will never give this knife back to others, I will only give it back to him." Feng Siniang's eyes also lit up, she stared and asked, "Why?" Lian Chengbi said: "Because he is Xiao Shishilang." Feng Siniang said: "Only Xiao Shishilang is equipped with this knife?"

Lian Chengbi nodded slowly, and said: "Whether he is good or evil, he is the only one in the world who is worthy of this knife." Feng Siniang said: "What if this knife is not a knife, but a sword?" Lian Chengbi suddenly showed a strange smile, and said slowly: "If this knife is a sword, this sword is mine." His voice was cold and slow, but full of pride and confidence. He already had this kind of self-confidence many years ago, and he knew that he would become an unparalleled swordsman in the world. Feng Siniang looked at him, sighed softly, and said: "It seems that your person has not changed."

Xiao Shishilang had already taken his saber, stroked the blade gently, and said: "Some people are like this saber, this saber will never be blunt, and this kind of person will never change." He suddenly turned Turning his head, staring at Lian Chengbi, he said again: "I remember you used to drink too?" Lian Chengbi said: "You remember correctly." Xiao Shishilang said, "What about now?" Lian Chengbi also raised his head and stared at him. After a long time, he said slowly: "You said that there is a kind of person that will never change, and people who drink alcohol are usually this kind of person."

Xiao Shishilang said: "Are you this kind of person?" Lian Chengbi said: "Yes." A jar of wine was placed on the table, and the three of them sat facing each other. Although there is one more person between them now, Feng Siniang feels that the distance between herself and Xiao Shishilang has become closer again. Because they all felt that there seemed to be a strange pressure on this person. A pressure that cannot be seen or touched, like a sword drawn from its sheath. They'd felt the same pressure before with Red Cherry and Green Willow. Now Lian Chengbi's pressure on them seems to be stronger than then. Feng Siniang had unknowingly approached Xiao Shishilang. Only now did she realize that Lian Chengbi was even more peculiar and unpredictable than she had imagined. She couldn't help but asked, "Are you really going to kill us?" Lian Chengbi said: "This is a very careful plan, we have planned it for a long time." Feng Siniang said: "But you suddenly changed your mind." Lian Chengbi said: "Although my person will not change, my mind will always change." Feng Siniang said: "Why did you change this time?" Lian Chengbi said: "Because I heard what you said here just now." Feng Siniang said: "You heard everything." Lian Chengbi said: "I can hear him very clearly, so I can understand what kind of person he is." Feng Siniang said: "You really understand?" Lian Chengbi said: "At least I understand that he is not the ruthless person that others imagined. Although he ruined us, his heart may be more painful than ours." Feng Siniang said sadly: "It's a pity that no one understands his pain, let alone sympathizes." Lian Chengbi was silent, and after a long time, he slowly said: "Although there are many kinds of happiness, the real pain is the same. If you have experienced real pain, you will be able to understand the pain of others." Feng Siniang said: "Only those who have truly tasted the pain can understand the pain of others." Lian Chengbi said: "I understand, I have understood a long time ago..." His eyes stared at the distance, the distance was hazy, and his eyes were already foggy. Was it the moonlight that dazzled his eyes?Or tears? Looking into his eyes, Feng Siniang suddenly discovered that the pain he and Xiao Shishilang endured were indeed equally profound and intense. Lian Chengbi said again: "Because I understand the horror of this kind of pain, I don't want to see everyone suffer from this matter." Feng Siniang said: "Really?" Lian Chengbi smiled, but the smile made his expression look more sad and desolate. He whispered dejectedly, and said: "Those who should go will always have to go sooner or later. Now that she has gone, she has gone to the place she wants to go, and has taken away all the grievances and hatreds. Since it is her Why can’t we forget the hatred in our hearts?” Feng Siniang sighed softly, and said sadly: "Yes, she has indeed taken away all the hatred. I only understand what she means now. I have always misunderstood her." She dared not go to see Xiao Shishilang, nor could she bear to. Tears welled up in her own eyes. Lian Chengbi said: "What should go is gone, what should be over is coming to an end, why should I create new hatred?" Feng Siniang said: "That's why you changed your mind?" Lian Chengbi smiled again, and said: "Besides, I also know that everyone will inevitably do wrong things. If a person can suffer for what he did wrong, wouldn't it be equivalent to paying the price." Feng Siniang looked at him as if she had never seen this person before. Maybe she hadn't really seen him until now. She suddenly asked: "Did you do something wrong too?" Lian Chengbi said: "I am also human." Feng Siniang said: "You already know that you shouldn't have joined the 'Tianzong'?" Lian Chengbi said: "I am not wrong about this matter." Feng Siniang said: "That's right?" Lian Chengbi said: "I joined Tianzong with only one purpose." Feng Siniang said: "What purpose?" Lian Chengbi said: "Expose their conspiracy and completely destroy their organization." He clenched his fists, and continued: "I deliberately pretended to be depressed, not to deceive you, you must have understood by now that my purpose is what?" Feng Siniang said: "I don't understand at all." Lian Chengbi drank a glass of wine, and suddenly asked, "Do you know what kind of person Lian Chengbi is?" Feng Siniang also drank a glass of wine before replying: "He is a very calm, shrewd and conceited person." Lian Chengbi said: "If a person like this suddenly wanted to join the Tianzong, what would you think?" Feng Siniang said: "I think he must have ulterior motives." Lian Chengbi said: "So if you are the suzerain of Tianzong, even if you let him join Tianzong, you will still be especially wary of him." Feng Siniang said: "Not bad." Lian Chengbi said: "But a depressed alcoholic is different." Feng Siniang said: "But I still don't understand why you want to deal with Tianzong? Why do you want to wrong yourself so much?" Lian Chengbi stared into the distance again, and after a long time, he said slowly: "It has been three hundred years since my distant ancestor Yuncun Gong founded Wugou Villa with bare hands. Children, no matter when and where, they are equally respected." Feng Siniang silently poured a glass of wine for him, waiting for him to speak. Lian Chengbi said: "My Xuanzu Lord Tianfeng, in order to fight for some justice for the Jianghu Wulin Alliance, went to Tianshan alone, fought fiercely for three days and nights with the Seven Swords of Tianshan who were powerful in the world at that time, and injured twenty-nine places, but finally forced him The Seven Swords of Tianshan went down to the south of the Yangtze River together, and pleaded guilty." He drank it up, his pale face flushed, and continued: "Fifty years ago, the demon sect invaded the south and colluded with the water tyrants of the south of the Yangtze River to form seventy Two gangs of underworld alliances, my grandfather rose up bravely, experienced eighty battles, all invincible, Jiangnan martial arts finally did not suffer from their persecution, and many families still enshrine his old man's longevity position." Feng Siniang couldn't help raising her glass and drank it down. Hearing the heroic deeds of these martial arts predecessors, she always becomes as excited as a child. Lian Chengbi was also obviously very excited, and said loudly: "I am also a descendant of the Lian family, I must not let the reputation of Wugou Villa be ruined in my hands, and I must not let Tianzong's plot succeed." Feng Siniang raised her glass again, and said: "Based on this sentence, I should already toast you three glasses." Lian Chengbi actually drank three cups, and suddenly sighed again: "It's a pity that until now, I don't know who the suzerain of Tianzong is?" Feng Siniang was startled, and said, "You still don't know?" Lian Chengbi shook his head. Feng Siniang said: "Could it be that he has never shown his true colors in front of you?" Lian Chengbi said: "No." Feng Siniang said: "Could it be that he still doesn't trust you?" Lian Chengbi sighed: "He has never trusted anyone. The only person in this world who can see his true face is probably his dog." Feng Siniang smiled, wryly. At this moment, two or three dog barks suddenly came from a distance. Lian Chengbi's expression changed, and he sneered, "I knew he would definitely come." Feng Siniang said: "Although he has a dog, the person who raises the dog may not necessarily be him." Lian Chengbi said: "It must be him." Feng Siniang said: "Didn't your appointment be on the night of the full moon?" Lian Chengbi said: "The moon is already full tonight." Feng Siniang looked up and saw a full moon like an ice tray hanging high outside the window. There were two more dog barks in the wind, and the distance was getting closer, as if they had already reached outside the window. Feng Siniang also became nervous, lowered her voice and said: "He knows you are here?" Lian Chengbi said: "But he doesn't know that I have changed my mind." Feng Siniang said: "Now he must think that Xiao Shishilang has died in your hands." Lian Chengbi said: "So he must come and see." Feng Siniang said: "What are you looking at?" Lian Chengbi said: "Look at Xiao Shishilang's head." Feng Siniang said with a wry smile: "Does he have to see Xiao Shishilang's head fall to the ground with his own eyes?" Lian Chengbi said: "He himself said that as long as Xiao Shishilang is still alive, he won't know how to eat and sleep well." Feng Siniang rolled her eyes and asked again: "How long have you been planning this?" Lian Chengbi said: "It's been half a month." Feng Siniang said: "Half a month ago, how did you know Xiao Shishilang would come to Shuiyue Tower?" Lian Chengbi said lightly: "No matter who is around, it is inevitable that someone will leak the news and reveal his whereabouts." Feng Siniang said: "Who do you think leaked his whereabouts?" Lian Chengbi said: "I don't know." Feng Siniang pondered, and said: "Half a month ago, maybe even Xiao Shishilang didn't know that he would come to Shuiyue Tower." Lian Chengbi said: "There must be someone who knows, otherwise how could we book a date here?" Feng Siniang stopped talking, he suddenly remembered a terrible thing. ——Xiao Shishilang's trip to the West Lake was not arranged by Bingbing? ——Could it be that Bingbing will leak his whereabouts? Before he came to West Lake, didn't only Bingbing know that he would definitely come? Because she knew that no matter where she wanted to go, Xiao Shishilang would never object. Feng Siniang only felt her hands and feet were cold, and couldn't help but sneak a glance at Xiao Shishilang. Xiao Shishilang had no expression on his face at all, as if he didn't hear what they were saying at all. Lian Chengbi suddenly said again: "The Tianzong's organization is unparalleled in the world, but there are inevitably traitors in the Tianzong." Feng Siniang immediately asked: "Do you know who those traitors are?" Lian Chengbi said: "They are all dead." Feng Siniang was startled, and said: "Dead?" Lian Chengbi said: "As far as I know, almost all the traitors of Tianzong are dead now." Feng Siniang said: "Who killed them?" Lian Chengbi said: "Xiao Shishilang!" Isn't it ridiculous that Xiao Shishilang would clean up the house for Tianzong? Feng Siniang felt terrible, and the more she thought about it, the more terrifying she became. Fortunately, she couldn't think about it anymore. There were two more barks of dogs on the lake, and a small boat slowly swung over under the moonlight. There was a dog and three people on the boat. A fisherman wearing a straw hat was steering the rudder. A boy in green clothes was standing at the bow of the boat, holding a white paper lantern in his hand. It was shining brightly, and its hands were also shining, but it held a dog in it. The suzerain of Tianzong finally appeared, "Why is his face so bright?" "He wears a mask on his face and a pair of gloves on his hands. I don't know what kind of leather it is made of. It will sparkle when it is under the light." "He always sat under a lamp." "good." Lian Chengbi lowered his voice and said, "So you only need to look at him twice, and your eyes will be blurred." Feng Siniang didn't ask any more, her heart beat almost twice as fast as usual. She only hoped that this person would come aboard quickly, and she swore that she would take off his mask with her own hands to see who he really was. Unexpectedly, the boat stopped far away, and the puppy in the arms of the man in black suddenly jumped to the bow, facing the moon, barking "Wow, woof, woof", and immediately there was another sound on the lake. There was a bark of dogs, and three more boats came from afar. There is a dog and three people on each boat.
