Chapter 27 Chapter 2 Jing Wuming's Nineteen Years

The backyard was illuminated into daylight by the light beam in an instant, the banyan tree was shaken by the roar in an instant, and the green leaves were shaken from the branches reluctantly. When did the light beam disappear and when did the sound stop?Ye Kai didn't know at all, he only knew that it seemed like a long time, like a century, that although his ears were no longer so loud, there was still a lingering sound lingering in his ears. Although the light is no longer so strong, there is still the image of light beams flowing in the tightly closed eyes. When his ears heard West Wind's words again, and when his eyes received the night scene again, Ye Kai's whole body was already drenched in cold sweat.

What happened just now?Ye Kai fixed his eyes on the backyard, it was quiet, there was no change at all, no, no, something was missing in the backyard. corpse?What was missing was the corpse. Where there should have been a corpse, there was now only a pile of fallen leaves. Ye Kai immediately looked around the backyard, even within the radius, but there was only the deserted night and a misty mist around him. The body was gone. Is there a "dead corpse"?Could it be that the roar and the weird light beam just now were the process of becoming a "vampire"?If so, why can't I see "vampire"?If the corpse turned into a "vampire", then why didn't they come to bite Ye Kai?Did it not see him, or did the mahogany around his waist scare it away?These problems troubled Ye Kai like "love threads". He opened the remaining pot of wine and took a big gulp. When the wine entered his stomach, he took a deep breath, then jumped up and circled .

One jumped up, the person fell, and landed next to the emerald green fallen leaves, Ye Kai stared at the fallen leaves, and then slowly moved his sight to the dry well, and the person followed to the dry well. With the moonlight, Ye Kai could clearly see the dry bottom of the well, the cracked soil was bare, and there was only a little dark green moss on the well wall. Such an unbelievable light beam and sound from such a dry well?Ye Kai bowed his body and picked up a stone beside the well, and threw it down towards the bottom of the well. The sound of "Du" was the sound of the stone hitting the soil, and from the solidity of the sound, the soil at the bottom of the well was very hard. There's no such thing as a darkroom.

Ye Kai slowly stood up straight, folded his hands on his chest, and frowned slightly. Could it be that the scene he saw just now was his own hallucination and imagination?Even if the light beam and sound are Ye Kai's hallucinations, it's a fact that the body is gone! When the matter came to this point, someone else would have to go back to sleep first and wait until tomorrow to talk about anything, but Ye Kai is not this kind of person. If he had this kind of personality, then there wouldn't be so many stories of sorrow, joy, joy, sorrow, sorrow and resentment. The dry well seemed normal, but if Ye Kai didn't go down to see it himself, he would definitely not be able to sleep for three days, so not long after he frowned, he jumped into the dry well.

The soil at the bottom of the well was as hard as steel, and as soon as Ye Kai fell down, he knew that there was no such thing as a dark room below, so he focused on the well wall. The moss was green and lush, Ye Kai stared at the moss on the well wall. How could such lush moss grow on the walls of wells that have been dry all year round?After looking at it for a while, a smile appeared on the corner of Ye Kai's mouth, and he raised his hand, and slowly touched the moss on the well wall. When his fingers touched the moss, the smile on the corner of Ye Kai's mouth grew stronger. With a slight movement of his fingers, a piece of moss on the wall was torn off.

There is no kind of moss in the world that can be torn off as a whole, the moss held in Ye Kai's hand is fake. It is made of a moss-like material, even if you look at it at a close distance, it is difficult to tell that it is fake unless you touch it with your hands. On the side of the well where the fake moss has been torn off, four or five small round holes are clearly exposed. What are these small round holes for?It seems that the fake moss is there to cover up the little holes. Why are there these small round holes on the wall of this dry well?What is the purpose of these small round holes?Removing all the fake moss from the sides of the well revealed more small round holes.

Put your finger into the hole, but you can't touch the bottom of the hole. It seems that these small round holes are still very deep.It was pitch black, so of course I couldn't see what was going on in the cave. I tried to listen with my ears, but I couldn't hear anything. Ye Kai couldn't help his head getting bigger again. Although he exposed the function of the fake moss, he revealed the secret of the small round hole. Looking at these small round holes, but can't figure out their function, do you think Ye Kai's head is not too big?Fortunately, just when Ye Kai felt that his head was getting bigger, he suddenly found that the stones on the walls and the joints in the blocks looked different.

The stones vary in size, so the arrangement is not very neat, but there is a very neat seam on the wall of the well about five feet above the bottom of the well. All the stones have been cut into parallel lines here, which is obviously deliberately arranged. With this discovery, Ye Kai's head returned to normal, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became stronger. He stared at the neat seam for a while, and then stretched out his hand to push the wall of the well. It only took three points of force, and the wall of the well sank inward. As soon as it sank, there was a gust of cold wind blowing in the face, and there was a strange sound of "咻咻".

Of course Ye Kai knew that this was a phenomenon caused by the sudden connection between the air inside and the air outside, so he stepped into the secret door after the strange sound disappeared. The passage is pitch black and the bottom cannot be seen. I wonder if it is straight?Or is there a bend?So Ye Kai had no choice but to walk while leaning on the wall. After about seven or eight turns, he saw a dim light in the distance. Walking towards the light, Ye Kai's heart became less nervous, because the light must be where all the mysteries are, and of course it is also the source of danger. "If you come, you will be safe." This truth Ye Kai has always been clearer than others Very, so he walked towards the light with a very happy mood.

The three lights are very soft, but the eyes are dead gray. As soon as he walked into the light, Ye Kai saw a pair of dead gray eyes. Not only is it dead gray, but it is also as cold as the thousand-year-old ice on Mount Everest, cold enough to make anyone's blood freeze. Ye Kai avoided the man's eyes and saw his hand. The man's left hand was broken, and the color of the right hand was also dead gray, as if it had just come out of a coffin. He was wearing a light blue robe, his hair was long and messy, his eyebrows were thick and thick, his nose was very straight, but on his face it showed his loneliness even more.

His lips are very thin, but you can tell at a glance that he is a person who speaks like a mountain. Only people who have killed countless people and use their hands more than their mouths will give people this feeling. At his left waist is a sword without a scabbard. The sword is pitch black, like his eyebrows. Strictly speaking, that is really not a sword, it is just a piece of iron more than three feet long, it has neither blade nor blade, not even a hilt. Only two pieces of cork are nailed to it, and it is considered a sword hilt. This sword feels like a child's toy, but Ye Kai knows that this toy must be very dangerous, it's better not to play with it. Although this man sat quietly under the light, his back was still straight, his body was like iron, ice, snow, severe cold, tiredness, fatigue, and hunger could not make him yield. Nothing in the world seemed to bring him to his knees. His eyebrows are thick, his eyes are big, his thin lips are tightly drawn into a line, and his straight nose makes his face look thinner. This face is easily reminiscent of granite, stubborn and firm. , indifferent, indifferent to everything, even to himself. Seeing this person, Ye Kai's intuition thought of A Fei, the one who was life and death friends with his master. This person is similar to A Fei in most aspects, the only difference is the eyes, A Fei's eyes are always full of enthusiasm, but this person's eyes only have death. Ye Kai believes that this person's sword usually brings death. "There is no life under the sword, the left and right double killing swords". This person must be the cold-faced killer Jing Wuming who is as famous as A Fei. Jing Wuming! Si must be, Ye Kai believes that the person in front of him must be Jing Wuming, Shangguan Jinhong's right-hand man. Only Jing Wuming can give people a feeling of death. Ye Kai shifted his gaze to this person's eyes again, staring at the dead gray light again. If this person is Jing Wuming, then Ye Kai will face the most dangerous duel in his life today. He still remembered what his master had said to him: "Although Shangguan Jinhong's martial arts is higher than Jing Wuming's, he is not as scary as Jing Wuming, because he lacks Jing Wuming's 'breath of death'." "I would rather fight Shangguan Jinhong for three days than be an enemy of Jing Wuming for a while." This is the comment of "Little Li Feidao" to Jing Wuming, which shows how terrible Jing Wuming is. . Now Ye Kai finally faced him, facing Jing Wuming. Li Xunhuan never fought against Jing Wuming in the past, can Ye Kai "retire without fighting" today?At the end of the tunnel is an empty room, except for Jing Wuming, there are only seven or eight Kongming lanterns. Although there are many lamps, the light is very soft, and the voice is slow, neither high nor low, nor emotional. Only Jing Wuming spoke with this kind of voice. "There are many kinds of people in the world, some are easy to kill, and some are not easy." His expression looked haggard, but his voice was as cold as his eyes: "There are also many kinds of hands. Some can kill, and some cannot.” Ye Kai was listening, he could only listen. "I was famous for my left-handed sword in the past, but since my left hand was broken, many people thought I was useless." This person is indeed Jing Wuming. "That's why those people died under the sword of your right hand." Ye Kai finished the sentence for him. Jing Wuming raised his right hand slowly, and his eyes fell on his right palm: "I practiced swords at the age of eleven, and I was able to master a fast sword at the age of fifteen, but it took me another seven years to practice the sword with my left hand. , do you know what I am doing?" "Please say." "I have always believed that 'a strong man has a strong hand'. I practiced my left-handed sword so hard that one day when I meet a real opponent, my left-handed sword will be able to play a role." Jing Wuming said calmly, "I never thought that my left hand would be broken before this day comes." ——His left hand was not cut off by someone, but by himself. Although his left shoulder was swollen and hit "Xiao Li's flying knife" first, if he didn't use his own strength to shoot the flying knife into the bone marrow , then his left hand will not be abolished. Of course Ye Kai knew about this matter, even if Li Xun Huan didn't tell him, there are many rumors about this matter in Jianghu, Ye Kai has ears, he can listen and judge, so he admires Jing Wuming's style that time. style?Heroic style?hero?What is a hero?Could it be that Jing Wuming's style is a hero?The meaning of a hero is often cruel, cruel, lonely, and ruthless. Someone once defined a hero, that is: killing like grass, gambling like crazy, drinking like thirsty, lusting like life! Of course, this is not necessarily absolute, and there is another kind of hero. Another kind is like Li Xunhuan. But how many heroes like Li Xunhuan are there in this world?No matter what kind of hero they are, they may have only one thing in common-no matter what kind of hero they want to be, it is definitely not a pleasant thing. Jing Wuming moved his gaze from his right hand to Ye Kai at the door, and then slowly said, "My name is Jing Wuming." "I know." "The biggest regret in my life is that I failed to fight Li Xunhuan." Jing Wuming paused for a while, and when the voice disappeared in Ye Kai's ear, he said again: "Your name is Ye Kai?" "The leaves of the leaves, the openings open." "Are you Li Xunhuan's only apprentice?" "I hate not being able to learn the master's two or three." Jing Wuming stared at Ye Kai again: "Where's your flying knife?" "The knife is here." "Where?" "It's where it should be." Ye Kai said lightly. —what is the place where it should be?The key to the enemy?Ye Kai's answer was very clever, but Jing Wuming understood it, so a slight light suddenly flashed in his dead gray eyes, but it disappeared quickly. "Okay, okay, the famous teacher really has a good student." Jing Wuming said: "If Li Xun Huan had been as free and easy as you in the past, he would not have such a miserable fate." Ye Kai smiled, he never answered questions like this, of course Jing Wuming understood what Ye Kai meant, so he quickly changed the subject. "What's the date today?" Jing Wuming suddenly asked Ye Kai. "August 11th." Ye Kai immediately asked: "Is there any significance to this date?" Today is the day when Shangguan Jinhong died at the hands of Li Xunhuan." He paused, and then said, "Today, nineteen years ago, was also my nineteenth birthday." Today is Jing Wuming's birthday, and also Shangguan Jinhong's death day. Ye Kai watched Jing Wuming, in other words, today is the day when all grievances should end. Jing Wuming withdrew his eyes from the daze, and fell on Ye Kai's face again: "I am only thirty-eight years old this year, but if I don't say it, would you think that I am only thirty-eight years old?" Ye Kai carefully looked at Jing Wuming's face, if one judged Jing Wuming's age from his appearance alone, no one would guess that he was only thirty-eight years old. Although his face still has the luster of a middle-aged man, but the end of his eyes has the haggard look of an old man, and even his protruding cheeks have been wrinkled by the wind and frost, and his broad forehead is even clearer. The place is full of tiredness and old age. Although his hair is still pitch black, his temples are already white with sorrow and sentimentality. His body is strong, but anyone can see that it is supported by pain and hatred. The feeling of his whole person is no longer haggard and old, which can only be described with the word "old". "You really don't look like a thirty-eight-year-old person." Ye Kai said truthfully, "You seem to be at least fifty-eight years old." "Yes, I look like I should be at least fifty-eight years old." Jing Wuming nodded: "That's because in the past nineteen years, I've been 'older' than others, nineteen years." Nineteen years "older" than everyone else?It is true that even if others are suffering, it is only nineteen years, but he has nineteen years more hatred than others. There are only two things that are most likely to make people old in the world, and that is hatred and love. Love can make people feel sad and ecstasy, but hatred can make people suffer until death. "Nineteen years." Jing Wuming actually sighed: "For nineteen years, I have been looking forward to a showdown with Li Xun Huan all the time, but I didn't realize one thing until I saw you today. Better than Li Xunhuan, do you know why?" "why?" "For hate." "Hate?" "I live for hatred, but I also lose for hatred." Jing Wuming said, "Even if I train hard for another nineteen years, I still can't beat Li Xunhuan, because I have a lot of hatred in my heart, and Li Xunhuan can only forgive." Ye Kai didn't understand the meaning of these words.Of course Jing Wuming also knew that he didn't understand, so he explained again immediately. "On the surface, it seems that I have been studying Li Xun Huan's martial arts wholeheartedly, looking for flaws in his martial arts. I think I have found his flaws in the past nineteen years, but I still can't defeat him." Jing Wuming explained again: " Because in these 19 years I only focused on studying the flaws of his martial arts from 19 years ago, my own martial arts still remained at the level of 19 years ago, but Li Xun Huan has entered another level of martial arts in the past 19 years because of his undivided attention." ——If martial arts does not advance, it will retreat, and if water does not flow, it will become muddy. This is the eternal truth. However, most people can't understand this truth, unexpectedly Jing Wuming understood it, it seems that his martial arts is not what Jing Wuming was nineteen years ago. ——To be able to comprehend is to make progress, which is the same truth through the ages. "Even though I know that I can't defeat Li Xunhuan, I still want to fight him. This is a matter of principle." Jing Wuming asked Ye Kai: "Do you understand?" "I understand." Ye Kai said: "Just like today, I know that I am not your opponent, but I will fight you, because this is also my principle." Even though he knew it was death, he still wanted to fight.Because it is no longer a matter of life and death. This is a war between good and evil, good and evil, shame and dignity.
