Chapter 15 Chapter 15: Bright Lake and Dark Night

April nineteenth, before dawn. The wind is calm and the moon is setting and the stars are sinking, but the lights are brighter. During the darkest period before dawn, only the lights are the brightest. Because it is burning itself, it does not hesitate to burn itself to illuminate others. The same goes for people. If a person does not hesitate to burn himself, no matter how dark the environment is, he can still shine. Gao Tianjue, this person is actually Gao Tianjue. "The heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and all will be killed." This mysterious figure who had only appeared in legends was actually sitting opposite him at this moment.

Xiao Jun was an orphan, and Gao Tianjue was already one of the most terrifying figures in the world when he was born. There should never be any relationship between them, but now their fate seems to have been linked together by some mysterious reason. Gao Tianjue suddenly asked Xiao Jun: "Do you want to take off my mask and see what kind of person I am?" "That's what I really wanted to do." "What now?" "Now I don't think about it anymore." Xiao Jun said, "Because I have discovered one thing." "What's up?" "Although I can't see your face, you can't see mine either." Xiao Jun said, "Just now you were walking very slowly on the road because you couldn't see anything."

Even if others want to wear a mask, they will leave two holes in the mask to expose their eyes. There is only one hole in this silver mask, and it is not in the eyes, but in the mouth. So he can drink tea and not see. Only blind people would wear this kind of mask. How could the famous Gao Tianjue become a blind person? Xiao Jun didn't ask. He believed that this question would touch a very painful past in Gao Tianjue's heart. "Just because I can't see you, you don't want to see me either." Gao Tianjue asked Xiao Jun again: "Do you think this is fair?"

"yes." "Then I might as well tell you again, there is one more thing that is fair." Gao Tianjue said. Xiao Jun didn't ask what was the matter again. He had already noticed that Gao Tianjue's left hand was always hidden in that black cloak, and he never stretched it out. Now Gao Tianjue suddenly stretched it out. What he stretched out was not a hand, what he stretched out was also a shiny silver pincer. "I cut off one of your hands, and mine was also cut off." Gao Tianjue's voice carried a sarcasm that no matter who heard it would feel pain: "Is this also fair?"

Xiao Jun didn't answer, but instead asked Gao Tianjue: "Does the person who cut off your hand look a lot like me? That's why you cut off my hand!" Gao Tianjue suddenly laughed, laughing loudly. "Laughing" is definitely a very pleasant thing. It not only makes you happy, but also makes others happy. But the gray-clothed man under him suddenly showed an expression of extreme fear. —Is this because they all know that this kind of laughter does not bring joy, but disaster and misfortune. Xiao Jun's palms also had cold sweat. He also suddenly felt unspeakable fear in his heart, but it was not because he had never heard such a terrible laughter, but because he had heard it before.

He did. At this moment, he suddenly remembered many things, which seemed to be very real, but also seemed to be just a nightmare. Whether it was a dream or not, he himself could not tell. At this moment, Gao Tianjue's laughter suddenly stopped, the expression on the gray-clothed man's face suddenly became stiff, and Xiao Jun suddenly woke up from the past. There was no change in the cabin, and the Daming Lake around the cabin was still so stable and quiet. But in their feelings, everything in the world seemed to have changed suddenly, and everyone suddenly felt an indescribable pressure in their hearts.

There was no wind in the cabin, and Gao Tian never moved, but the black cloak on his body suddenly began to wave like waves. The lid on the teacup suddenly jumped three feet, and with a "wave" sound, it suddenly shattered in the air. Then there was another "bang", the originally open window was suddenly closed, and the window paper that was pasted on it suddenly shattered, strips flying in the air, like countless ghosts summoned from hell butterfly. The strings of a lyre on the wooden table in the corner suddenly sounded "Shuaishaishuaishuai", and the bead curtain on the door suddenly began to ring like playing a piano.

Then there was another sound of "choking", the seven strings broke, the eighth tone suddenly stopped, the pearls and jade on the curtain fell like tears, and the two men in gray outside the door disappeared. No one on deck outside knew how these terrible changes had come about. Only Gao Tianjue knew. "He's here." Gao Tianjue suddenly took a deep breath, and said word by word: "He's already here." Boss Tang's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, looking at Yuan Bao in surprise. Her eyes were not small, but now they seemed to be twice as big as usual. Although her mouth was not big, now it seemed that she could swallow two eggs in one bite.

Boss Tang is thirty-four years old this year, and has seen many kinds of scenes, but now he looks like a little girl who has been frightened by someone, and she is only seven or eight years old at most. What Yuan Bao said just now really shocked her. "Did you say something just now?" She immediately shook her head and said, "You didn't say it. I just thought I heard it. In fact, you didn't say anything." "Actually, I did." Yuan Bao said with a stern face, "I said a word clearly, every word was very clear." "But I really didn't hear it."

"You heard me." "I didn't hear that." "You obviously heard it." "I obviously didn't hear it." Boss Tang Da said. Yuan Bao stared at her, and suddenly repeated what he had just said in the voice of a drowning man calling for help. "I want you to marry me." Boss Tang was taken aback again, he was so frightened by this brat that he lost his soul. "My God." Her voice seemed to be moaning: "My God." "Did you hear this time?" Yuan Bao asked, "Do you want me to say it again?" "I beg you, help me." Boss Tang didn't even look like a big boss: "If you say it again, I will have to jump into the river."

"Why did you jump into the river?" "What you said just now must have been heard clearly by a deaf man five blocks away." "What's wrong with that?" Yuan Bao stared, "I've never been afraid of being heard by others when I speak." "Aren't you afraid? I'm afraid." "What are you afraid of?" Yuan Bao patted his chest hard: "With me here, what are you afraid of?" Boss Tang groaned again, looking as if he was about to faint under the table. "Do you know how old I am?" she said. "I might be your grandmother." Yuan Bao actually nodded immediately. "Yes, yes, you are probably ready to be my grandmother, and my grandmother is only one hundred and one years old this year." He deliberately asked her, "What about you?" "Although I'm not that old, I'm in my thirties, at least I can be your mother." "Be my mother? Hahaha! Hahaha!" "Hahaha what do you mean?" "Hahaha means that I am almost mad at you." Yuan Bao said, "Even my fourth sister is over 30 this year, and you are going to be my mother, do you think you are mad at me? " "I'm not." "Then I'll tell you, even my eldest sister can be your mother." Yuan Bao said solemnly, "When you come to my house, the only thing you can do is to be my wife, and you must be my wife. " Boss Tang immediately covered his ears with both hands. "I heard nothing," she said. "You said nothing, and I heard nothing." "Okay, then I'll tell you again." He actually said in a voice that was twice as loud as before: "I want you..." He only uttered half of this sentence this time, because Boss Tang had already rushed over and covered his mouth with the hands that covered her own ears just now. Her hands are warm and soft. She also softened. Because as soon as she rushed over, Yuan Bao took the opportunity to hug her. She wanted to push, but couldn't. "You little brat, you're really nothing." "I'm not a thing, I'm a person." Yuan Bao said, "I'm a big man." "You're a bullshit man, and I'm at least ten years older than you." "My third brother-in-law and fifth brother-in-law are both ten years older than my sister." Yuan Bao said eloquently: "A man in his thirties can marry a teenage woman, why can't a woman in her thirties marry a teenage girl?" year-old man?" "you're drunk." "I don't." "You're clearly drunk." "I didn't, I didn't..." "Who is he?Who is here? On the mirror-like Daming Lake, a white wave suddenly split. A light boat cut through the calm Daming Lake like a sharp knife through a piece of silky satin, and rushed towards it like an arrow. A tall man in green shirt stood at the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, his long gown fluttering in the wind. The stars have set, the moon has set, and now is the darkest time in the world. No one can see his face clearly, but everyone who sees him has felt his terrifying majesty and bearing. No one else was in the canoe, no one hoisted the sails, no one poled, no one steered the oars, and no one steered the helm. But the ship had come, and much sooner than anyone could have imagined. Gao Tianjue asked Xiao Jun in a low voice: "Do you know who is here?" "Li Xiao?" "Yes, that's him." Li Xiao, three laughs frighten General Li Li Xiao. Of course Xiao Jun knew that Li Xiao was Wu Tao, but now there was no trace of Wu Tao on this person. He has become a completely different person because he no longer has to hide his identity. His tummy is gone and all the excess fat and fat has miraculously disappeared. His pointed forehead has become broad and open, and his gray face has shone like white jade. ——Is he really that ordinary and vulgar businessman whose wallet was stolen and he didn't even know? Xiao Jun didn't believe it. He had never believed that such a miraculous disguise technique really existed in the world, nor did he believe that a person would have such an astonishing change. But now he couldn't believe it. This person is the one he wants to kill, but at this moment, he suddenly has an indescribable fear and admiration for this life, just like a passionate young man suddenly sees his idol hero. Xiao Jun himself didn't know why he felt this way, but he had already noticed one thing. ——It seems that there are always two people fighting in his heart, fighting with two sharp knives, you cut it with one knife, I cut it with one knife, each knife cuts on his heart. So his heart will always be full of contradictions and pain. "As soon as you have a chance, you have to make a move immediately, and you have to take his vitals as soon as you make a move." Xiao Jun did not forget Gao Tianjue's repeated instructions to him. But when the opportunity comes, will he make a move?Even he himself is not sure. The light boat was floating on the lake, and people were already on Gao Tianjue's boat. At that moment just now, his light boat seemed to be far away from the big ship. Now that his people are already in the cabin, Xiao Jun finally saw his appearance and face clearly. His face was well-defined, as if carved out of a piece of beautiful jade, with a broad forehead and a straight nose, but there was an indescribable irony at the corner of his mouth. His eyes are bright and powerful, but full of melancholy and sadness. His body was as straight as a javelin. His handsomeness, his momentum, his demeanor, it is difficult to find a second person even if you search all over the world. Why does such a person seem so melancholy?Could it be that his heart is as conflicted and painful as Xiao Jun's? Gao Tian never saw this person, he couldn't see anything at all, the strange thing is, he seemed to see more than anyone else. What was even more amazing was that no one else could see Gao Tianjue's face, but this person seemed to be able to. They were facing each other, staring at each other as if they could see each other. Gao Tianjue's silver mask shone with silver light under the lamp. The mask originally had no emotion or expression, but now it seems to have an expression, an expression that no one can understand and explain except the two of them, even the flickering silver light seems to have turned into a burning flame . General Li originally had an expression on his face, and it was also an expression that others could not understand, but suddenly it became completely expressionless, as if he suddenly put on a cold mask. "It really is you." General Li finally said, "I knew you would find me sooner or later." "It was you who came to look for me." Gao Tianjue said flatly, "I didn't look for you." "Now that we have met, it doesn't matter who comes to whom." "There is a difference." "Oh?" "I neither looked for you nor saw you." Gao Tianjue said, "I have already said that I will never see you again in this life." "That's why you wear such a mask?" "yes." "What if I must see you?" Gao Tianjue sneered: "You must not see it." Li Xiao looked at him coldly, and suddenly flew out of nowhere. General Li never noticed Xiao Jun, didn't even look at him, as if he didn't know there was such a person in the cabin. Xiao Jun, however, has been paying attention to them, noting the changes in the expressions on their faces, and paying attention to what they say. He has been waiting for an opportunity. Although he himself didn't know whether he would make a move when the opportunity came, he was still waiting. He has no chance. Although Li Xiao stood there quietly all the time, since he didn't move or guard, he was like a wooden man. But this wooden man is undoubtedly an absolutely flawless wooden man, every knife is carved on the absolutely correct part, every line is carved absolutely correct and flawless, there is not even a single flaw in the whole body. So although this person neither moves nor guards, his whole body is impeccable. To move is not to move, to not move is to move, to use movement to control stillness, and to use the same to respond to all changes. This is already the state of "Zen". Even if Xiao Jun wanted to make a move, he couldn't find a chance to make a move, but he discovered a very strange thing. The two of them undoubtedly knew each other before, and they were probably very good friends, but there seemed to be a kind of hatred between these two people that no one could resolve. Is it an enemy or a friend?No one can tell. At this moment, General Li, who was not moving, suddenly moved. No one can describe the movement. General Li's movements seem to be very slow, but they are so fast that people can't even see clearly. His movements seem to be clumsy, but they are as smooth and graceful as flying phoenixes. Gao Tianjue wanted to put him to death, but he didn't want to. He just wanted to take off that ugly, beautiful, mysterious and terrifying silver mask. Gao Tian will never let him achieve his goal. Gao Tianjue also moved. The two absolutely still people suddenly moved, moving like the wind, moving like waves, catkins, and white clouds in the wind, moving like the wind on the waves, among the willows, and among the clouds. Xiao Jun's heart sank. He has always thought that he can definitely be regarded as a top player in the arena, and others think the same as him. Only now did he realize that the idea was ridiculous. Comparing his martial arts with these two people, there is no way to compare him. He never thought that anyone in this world could practice martial arts like them. Now he has seen it with his own eyes. How can he make a move?How can there be a chance to make a move? The figure flickered and the lights went out. But the darkest time has passed, and the faint morning light has illuminated Daming Lake. The two figures chasing Feiyue suddenly separated, and General Li suddenly arrived in front of Xiao Jun, and he struck out like lightning, holding his right arm, his only arm. Xiao Jun had no room to resist at all, he only heard General Li's deep voice saying: "You can't stay in this place, come with me." Before he could finish his sentence, Xiao Jun's body had already lifted off the ground, and flew out following General Li. He cannot resist. But the moment they flew out of the cabin, he suddenly saw an opportunity. At this moment, the faint morning light was shining on General Li's back. There was nothing behind him. This was the first time in his life that he exposed his emptiness to others, and it was undoubtedly the last time. He didn't expect that Xiao Jun would make a move, and he also didn't expect that Xiao Jun already had an extra arm. Xiao Jun didn't even think about it. When he saw the morning light on General Li's back, he had already thrust out the dagger held in steel tongs, piercing the heart from the soft underside of General Li's left shoulder. This action is like a person who immediately retracts his hand when he touches a coal fire, without his thinking at all. ——This person is his enemy, this opportunity is his only chance, he must seize this opportunity and make a move. This thought had already taken root in his heart, so he shot without even thinking about it. He finally seized this opportunity because he had enough experience and quick enough reaction. This is the experience he has gained from countless hard battles, and he has trained from countless painful experiences. He should be satisfied with his blow. But as long as he lived, whenever he thought of it, his heart would feel a pang. The sword he stabbed, although it was General Li, seemed to be piercing his own heart. The sword light flashed and disappeared. General Li's body suddenly shrank in pain, and suddenly bounced off the tip of the sword, twisting and struggling in the air. At this moment, his face has turned to face Xiao Jun, and the morning light is shining on his face. His face did not have the fear of facing death, nor the anger of being plotted against, but was full of pain, remorse and sadness. Xiao Jun saw his face. Xiao Jun will never forget this expression on his face in his life. By the time blood dripped on the deck, General Lee's men had fallen into the lake. Water splashed and people sank. Circles of ripples spread out on the lake, and there was General Li's blood in each ripple. Before the ripples disappeared, Xiao Jun had already heard Gao Tianjue's laughter. He should have laughed. General Li finally died, and he died in a plan arranged by himself, and he should feel very satisfied with himself. But there was no sense of joy and complacency in his laughter, and it was also full of pain and sadness. What is this for? His stern laughter, Xiao Jun will never forget it in his life.
