Xie Jinyin slowly pulled the sword out from the lower abdomen of the middle-aged beautiful woman, drips of blood dripped from the tip of the sword, he looked at the corpse for a while, and said to himself coldly: "Are you tired of killing people? Just now, when I faced this graceful woman, I could hardly do anything..." He flicked the sword, and there was a crisp "choke", and a strand of yellow sword tassels fluttered slightly against the night wind blowing in from the cabin door. The lamp is like a bean, and the outline of Xie Jinyin's face can be vaguely seen. He is about forty years old, but his pale face can't hide the fish marks left by the ruthless years in the corners of his eyes.

He took a step around the cabin, bloodstained everywhere he walked, and the dim yellow light illuminated dozens of dead bodies in different shapes, forming a horrible and miserable picture. "Eighteen people from Sima Daoyuan's family are here. Hehe, it took a lot of effort to deal with these people." He hummed as he walked, and in an instant he walked from the east corner to the west door. Suddenly, he felt a gust of wind from behind him, and Xie Jinyin turned around like lightning, with a single sword across his chest. In the haze, I saw an old man in fine clothes struggling to hold himself up from the pile of dead bodies. The dark red blood continued to seep from the fingers he pressed on his lower abdomen. When Xie Jinyin's body was about to turn around, he had already raised his palm Shot out.

"laugh!" Xie Jinyin flicked his right wrist, cold light came out around his body, before the old man in fine clothes gave a firm hand, the sword had pierced a hole in his chest. The old man in Chinese clothes screamed miserably, and said intermittently: "You, you... so you are a professional swordsman...!" Before he could finish speaking, he fell on his back, with blood gushing from his chest, and the image of death immediately permeated his face; five feet away, Xie Jinyin was still standing with his sword in his arms, an indescribably cold and murderous aura erupted from the sword. out!

After a while, Xie Jinyin bent down, probed the old man's breath with the palm of his hand, and then listened to his breathing. There is no doubt that the old man had died long ago. Sen Han's murderous aura gradually faded, Xie Jinyin transported the sword box and said in a low voice: "It's really evil. Recently, I can't kill people cleanly. If my sword wasn't fast enough and accurate, I'm afraid that it's not Sima Daoyuan who fell down..." After he killed someone, his demeanor became listless instead, as if he had just done something extremely boring, and the little bit of energy left in him had long since disappeared.

Xie Jinyin couldn't help sighing when he looked away from the old man in fine clothes: "The surname Sima has been around for nearly thirty years, and his name is not empty. He was hit by my Xie Jinsangliu sword. It is a miracle that he survived. He was able to sneak attack with his palm. Hey, it's no wonder that master is not stingy this time. pay such a high price." Except for Xie Jinyin whispering to himself from time to time, the cabin was deadly silent, and the moonlight shone in from the window, spilling the mercury in the cabin. About the time for a cup of tea passed, and suddenly there was a sound of oars shaking water outside the cabin!

Although the voice was small, Xie Jinyin could hear it clearly. His body shook and he said to himself: "It's midnight, and who else is going boating on this lonely lake?" He turned around for a while, and he was already outside the cabin. Standing on the upper reaches of the cabin and looking around, he saw a sailboat approaching slowly on the starboard side! Before the sailing boat arrived, a burst of clanking zither sounds drifted in with the wind, interspersed with a crisp female voice: "The sound of the zither swallows, the dream of Qin moth breaks the green lake moon. The green lake moon, the willow color every year, Baling hurts farewell. The frost falls and the insects fill the bamboo boats, and the smoke and clouds are deserted. This que."

The singing is very euphemistic, and the tented boat floats on the icy lake. While looking around, the small boat came to a stop next to the painting boat, and the man standing on the bow waved a penny towards the painting fat, and the boat turned sideways. Xie Jinyin on the boat shouted: "Put the boat in the dark, who is it?" The person below put the penny on the bow of the boat and replied: "Master, let's send Zhilan over here." With a thought in Xie Jinyin's mind, he saw that the curtain of the boat was lifted, and a woman in yellow clothes was holding a xylophone in her arms, and Shi Shi stepped out.

The silver-white moonlight shines on Tingting's figure. The lotus leaf and pomegranate skirt are all yellow and red, and there are two willow-leaf eyebrows on her fair face. Her eyes are like a pair of peaches, and her hair is long and hangs down to her shoulders. It made that pretty face even more fresh and delicate. Xie Jinyin only looked at it unsteadily, and secretly said: "This lady is beautiful enough and mature enough." The woman in yellow clothes went to the list and said: "Who are you chatting with? Don't send me up." The person on the list, Weiwei, was about to help her climb onto the boat, Xie Jinyin's heart turned, and with a wave of his hand, he put down the ladder hanging on the side of the boat, and said loudly:

"Call from here." The woman in Huang's clothes climbed onto the boat along the ladder, and Xie Jinyin looked her up and down for a while. Based on his rich experience in reading people, he could roughly guess that the other party's age should be between twenty-five and sixteen. She, who had been stared at by Xie Jinyin for a long time, had a pink face, twisted her slender waist, and grinned: "I haven't thanked you yet, sir." Xie Jinyin hummed and said: "The girl is a singer?" The woman in yellow clothes nodded and said: "The drama concubine Zhilan, sir, please take care of me."

Xie Jinyin took a closer look at the woman in front of him, and suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. After more analysis, this feeling seemed to be an indescribable "murderous intent"! It must be known that a warrior like him is often very sensitive to the people around him, so when he approached this woman for the first time, he felt a strange feeling, and thought to himself: "I am a person who often makes people feel 'murderous', but this Zhilan is just a girl, but she also has such a compelling 'murderous', like a poisonous snake rushing out of the grass to give people I feel the same, it's puzzling..."

Nothing happened, but Xie Jinyin was already wary. Xie Jinyin said: "Who sent the girl here?" Zhilan, a woman in Huang clothes, said: "Si... Sima officials first ordered Zhouzi to take me to the boat and sing a song..." Is it for singing?Doesn't seem like much.Xie Jinyin has this intuition.But no matter what, Xie Jinyin was very interested in the murderous look on the woman in Huang Chang. He pointed to the boat and said: "The official Sima that the girl mentioned is in the cabin, please come with me." Xie Jinyin took the lead, pushed open the hatch, and at the same time turned around to let Zhilan in. Zhilan held the xylophone in her arms, and walked lightly with lotus steps, a strong smell of blood rushed towards her face, she frowned slightly, and stopped staggeringly on the cabin door. Turning his gaze around, he saw a miserable scene inside the gorgeously furnished cabin, tables and chairs overturned, bloodstains everywhere, and dozens of people lying in a pool of blood in disorder, obviously already dead for a long time! Xie Jinyin kept observing the expression on Zhilan's face, but saw that she didn't scream, sigh, or show any sign of shock. He pointed to the old man in fine clothes lying in a corner of the cabin, and said: "Sima Daoyuan is lying there. If the girl can sing him to the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss, that would be a great merit." He was talking and laughing, Zhilan in front of him was surprisingly calm in the face of the horrific death scene, Xie Jinyin felt excited again. Zhilan said lightly: "The people in the cabin were all killed by you, sir?" Xie Jinyin nodded and said: "good." Zhilan said: "Then my song can't be sung." Xie Jinyin said: "I admire the girl's calmness." Zhilan patted the xylophone in her arms and said: "Why? Sir, why did you kill them?" Xie Jinyin smiled and did not answer, Zhilan replied: "Hate? Entanglement? Is this the uncle's motive for killing people?" Xie Jinyin shook his head and said: "It's not hatred, it's not entanglement." Zhilan said: "Then sir, are you—" Xie Jinyin showed a little impatience, and said: "In one word: a certain family is hired to kill!" Zhilan let out an "oh" and said: "Hire to kill? It's a very fresh phrase. I wonder how much the master who hired the uncle paid?" She didn't ask who was behind the scene, but asked about the insignificant reward. Xie Jinyin couldn't help being startled, and said: "Five thousand pieces of silver." Zhilan said: "Although the amount is not small, if you use another method, such as stealing and robbing, you can still get silver taels." Xie Jinyin said: "Stealing and robbery are the activities of thieves, and a certain family disdains it!" Zhilan said: "My uncle doesn't bother to steal, but he would rather kill people. Thinking about it, he must enjoy killing people..." Xie Jinyin said: "Nonsense! A certain family has no choice but to do it, the girl is talking nonsense, it's really abominable!" Zhilan changed her face and said: "It's the concubine's quick talk, but since you are going to kill me, sir, you don't need to apologize anymore." Xie Jinyin was startled and said in surprise: "Killed the girl? Where did you start talking?" Zhilan said: "The murder of Huafang has fallen into the eyes of this concubine, sir, of course you have to kill me to silence me." Xie Jinyin laughed and said: "A certain family has always been hired to kill people. It is so stupid to use swords and swords without money!" Zhilan said: "Didn't the uncle worry that I would spread this matter?" Xie Jinyin looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, saying: "Even if everyone in the world knows about this and regards a certain family as an enemy, why should a certain family be afraid!" Zhilan said: "It's enviable for the grandpa to speak boldly, but you must pay attention: the Sima official has a lot of friends in the Jianghu, and he is also very popular. Although the uncle is not afraid, the crowd from all over the world will attack him. It will also make the uncle hard to guard against... ..." Xie Jinyin's face darkened, and said: "How can the girl know so clearly about the martial arts?" Zhilan couldn't answer for a while, but after a long time, she said: "The concubine has been singing and singing for a long time, and has often been in contact with martial arts figures. She has heard and seen it, so she knows a little about it..." Xie Jinyin pondered for a moment, and secretly said: Zhilan is a strange woman, so far, I still don't know her identity, but I want to find out her bottom anyway. Zhilan turned around and walked to the side, suddenly stamped her feet, turned her head and said: "It's impossible for Sima officials to hear the concubine singing. I don't know if you are so interested, sir?" Xie Quanyin said: "The girl means: Do you want to sing a song for a certain family?" Zhilan nodded and said: "If the uncle is willing to listen." Undoubtedly, Zhilan does have some kind of mission on her body. Although she doesn't know what her purpose is, one thing is certain: she came for Xie Jinyin! As for why Sima Daoyuan invited him to sing here, that's just an excuse.Although Xie Jinyin knew it well, he didn't take this matter seriously, so he didn't go into it further. Now said: "Right here?" Hualan frowned and said: "There is blood on the boat, it's always uncomfortable to get along with the dead, why don't you please move to the boat of the concubine—" Xie Jinyin almost blurted out and asked: "A certain family understands that you are here to thank me for Xie Jinyin, what's on your mind?" But the indifference that was characteristic of his nature made him swallow his words back. Seeing that Zhilan had climbed off the boat along the ladder, Xie Jinyin hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't help being driven by curiosity, twisted her body, and flew down in the air. The man who steered the boat glanced back and said "Ah" in surprise. The voice didn't stop, Xie Jinyin had landed firmly beside the man at the bow, and the boat sank only a little. Can not detect. The person on the list blurted out praise: "This old man is so light-hearted!" Xie Jinyin snorted, and when he walked past the leader, he happened to notice that the green bamboo hat on his head was pressed down very low, almost covering most of his face. Xie Jinyin moved slightly in his mind, and asked sideways: "Your Excellency is really a leader, right?" The person on the list was shocked, his right hand tightly grasped the bamboo hat on his head, and said: "The villain has practiced in Cuihu Lake... for many years, why did the master have this... this question? Xie Jinyin wanted to lift the bamboo hat on the opponent's head, wanting to see the Lushan face of this man, he waved his hand, and the man kicked back, unexpectedly Xie Jinyin's arms suddenly grew and stretched out, palms and fingers stretched out , Already pinched the edge of the opponent's bamboo hat all of a sudden! Dou Wen Zailan shouted from behind: "What's the matter with you, sir?" Xie Jinyin's mind was divided, and he loosened his hand holding the bamboo hat. The man took the opportunity to lean his upper body slightly, bend his feet backwards, and he had already retreated two steps away. Zhilan gave the man a white look, and said: "Tell me, how did you succeed in meeting the uncle?" Wen Ai, Qi Qi, said: "Little... villain, damn it!..." Xie Jinyin sneered in his heart and said: "It's pretty good, but it's a pity that I, Xie Jinyin, have the natural ability to expose other people's fakery. Things seem to be getting more and more interesting as things go on tonight." He said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, let's go into the tent." Zhilan led Xie Jinyin into the tent, put the xylophone on the incense table, her fair face became more charming under the light. The two sat silently facing each other, the sound of oars outside the canopy was rippling, and the lights in the canopy were on and off, which was really special.After a long time, Zhilan whispered: "Emerald lake water moon, you must teach silk and bamboo harmony, if the concubine can't sing well, please wait a little longer." She set up the xylophone, fiddled with it a few times, and began to sing faintly: "What evening is this evening, Zhongzhou is flowing; What day is it today, and I have to be in the same boat as my husband. The eyes are dim and sorrowful, and the autumn wind is curling up; I was so upset that I learned that Mr. Lang, Mountains have trees and trees have branches, and the heart says that you don’t know the king. " The sound was very sad, the sound of the piano was like floating on the boat, Xie Jinyin listened to it, he couldn't help being short of breath, he felt pity, and couldn't bear to go immediately.Xie Jinyin clapped his hands and said: "The girl sings and plays very well, and a certain family really admires her." Ji Lan hangs his head and says: "Uncle is ridiculous." Her tender body moved closer to Xie Jinyin, bursts of fragrance wafted with the wind, Xie Jinyin sniffed and felt a little drunk, he really didn't know whether it was the world or the sky. At this moment, the Zibang man lifted the curtain and came in, and put the jug and Wang Gong on the table. He dared to feel that the scene in the tent was different, so he hurried back and went out. Zhilan said: "Cuihu fine wine, sir, please try—" She poured two full glasses of wine, Xie Jinyin waited for Zhilan to finish drinking, then raised the glass of wine in front of her, and drank it down with her face up. Alan praised: "Master is good at drinking." As she said that, Zhilan suddenly rushed towards Xie Jinyin, and knocked over the jug, which wet the boards of the boat. A strong and delicate fragrance radiated from Zhilan's body, she stretched out her jade hand and extinguished the lamp, Xie Jinyin unconsciously acted with her like a man and a woman without true love. As the night faded, the shadow of the moon slanted, and silver light quietly poured in from the awning window.With loose hair, Zhilan seemed to be crushing Xie Jinyin to death, biting his shoulder and strangling his neck. Xie Jinyin was panting and moaning like a person about to drown in the water.Zhilan cupped Xie Jinyin's body with both hands, and hugged him tightly, the tent was filled with an atmosphere of life and death struggle. Under the heavy pressure of mixed joy and pain, there is another shuddering pressure pressing on.Xie Jinyin suddenly sensed an imminent danger—this was his inborn instinct for keen detection—he pushed Zhilan away, straddled her body, and grabbed the long sword placed on the table! "choke"! Xie Jinyin's sword came out of the box immediately, a flash of sword light flashed in the darkness, the curtain was raised in the air, and a man hurriedly retreated outside. Xie Jinyin quickly put on his clothes, twisted his body, and then chased out, only to see the man standing on the bow of the boat! The person on the list had already taken off the bamboo hat on his head, revealing a rough face, but he was about 30 years old, with a mustache on his face, a knife scar on the corner of his left eyebrow, and he was holding a four-year-old sword in his hand. wooden paddles. Xie Quanyin said coldly: "Hey, it really is you!" The "list man" said: "It's me! The surname is Xie. We met once in the Wangwu." Xie Jinyin said in a deep voice: "Qiao Rushan, you are known as the number one swordsman in Guanzhong, but a certain family can't remember any quarrel with you. Why did you attack a certain family?" That Qiao Rushan said: "Your Excellency and Qiao Mou can't say that there is any feud, but with Zhilan... hehe..." Xie Jinyin's heart skipped a beat, and he said: "Go on—" Qiao Rushan said: "Do you still remember Zhao Feixing, the master of Taizhao Castle? He was killed by your sword last year, and Zhilan is the daughter of Zhao Castle master!..." Zhilan!Zhao Zhilan!He should have thought of it earlier.Xie Jinyin is not forgetful, he did kill Zhao Feixing last spring - needless to say, of course he was hired to kill him! Immediately said: "That's right, Castle Master Zhao was indeed killed by a certain family, but Qiao Rushan, why do you stand up for him?" Qiao Rushan said word by word: "Do you want to know the reason? Zhilan is Qiao's wife!" Xie Jinyin was startled, stepped back three steps, and said: "What? Zhilan is your wife surnamed Qiao?! And you...you are outside the tent, watching a certain family and Zailan doing that..." Qiao Rushan said in a deep voice: "This is a big gamble—Zhilan decided to sacrifice her body, for her father's revenge, but also for me!" Xie Jinyin unknowingly had goosebumps all over his body, he said: "So you took advantage of a certain family's desire for immortality and death to launch a sneak attack? Can you two have already planned it and used all means to plot against a certain family?" play hard!Unscrupulous to come to such a field?Xie Jinyin was terrified.He looked back subconsciously, and saw Zhao Zhilan still sitting quietly in the tent. Qiao Rushan said: "I don't want you to be able to maintain a high level of vigilance when you were extremely excited. Qiao couldn't make a sneak attack, but he convinced you." Xie Jinyin said: "It's also thanks to your surname Qiao who saw the opportunity early, and if the blow didn't work, you should withdraw immediately. Otherwise, a certain sword would not only make a small hole in your clothes, but also penetrate into your lower abdomen!" Qiao Rushan looked down, and saw that a small hole like a grain of rice had been pierced by the sword energy under his short skirt, and cold sweat dripped down in an instant. He was ashamed into anger and said: "Today, between you and me, one person must die here!" After the voice stopped, he raised the oar in his hand, and hoped that Xie Jinyin Tianling Gai would strike it down. Xie Jinyin leaned to one side, stepped two steps away to the left, and with a sound of "swipe", the opponent swept past his right arm with a scull. But I heard him shout: "Wait!" Qiao Rushan said impatiently: "Is there anything else you can't figure out?" Xie Jinyin said: "Just now a certain family heard you say: Zhilan offered her body not only to avenge her father, but also for her husband, you. Does a certain family miss the meaning?" Qiao Rushan sneered and said: "Do you need to explain? If Qiao succeeds in the sneak attack and kills you, he will not only avenge Zhilan's father, but also obtain the qualification of a professional swordsman on your behalf." Xie Jinyin was surprised and said: "You, you mean: Zhilan sacrificed her virginity for her father's revenge and her husband's career?" After saying that, he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly, thinking to himself: "Zhilan's idea is so terrifying! Killing me to avenge my father is still something to say, but as for obtaining a way of making a living through this, I can't agree..." Qiao Rushan said gloomyly: "Zhilan's reputation has been ruined. As her husband, I must kill you!" Xie Jinyin said: "A certain family never kills people except for employment." Qiao Rushan said sharply: "We can't stop! Look at the trick!" He waved his wooden scull in the air, and sliced ​​it out flatly. Xie Jinyin made a wrong step, leaned back and retreated, only a few inches away, and Qiao Rushan completely cut through the air with a single scull. Xie Jinyin supported his right wrist, and with a sound of "clang", the long sword flew out. When he killed, the sky was full of cold light, and the sword energy was vertical and horizontal, revealing a faint aggressiveness! Qiao Rushan's heart was shocked, and he was unconsciously forced to back up by the other party's overpowering arrogance, two steps, three steps, four steps... all of a sudden, he had already retreated to the edge of the stern! There was a strange sound of "Woo", Xie Jinyin pushed out the sword in his hand, the body of the sword trembled constantly, but the tip of the sword never moved away from a fixed position. Qiao Rushan's complexion changed drastically, he took a long breath of true energy, and the wooden oar was slowly sealed out. However, Xie Jinyin's sword went to the side of the palace, suddenly sank and raised, the sword hadn't arrived yet, the sword wind was already roaring; , the wooden oar flicked and slashed, broke through the center line, and handed it to Xie Jinyin's "mysterious" hole! This scull attack came out with extremely miraculous and precise moves, Xie Quanyin felt a little terrified, and had to withdraw his sword to save himself, and dodged to the side. With great difficulty, Qiao Rushan seized the opportunity and made three moves in one breath, pouring out numerous oar shadows to trap the enemy. Xie Jinyin seemed to have a plan in his mind, and let the opponent blindly attack. On the fourth move, he stepped forward suddenly, pierced his arm with force, and struck out a sword from a dead corner. , no more advances. Qiao Rushan's wooden oar attack paused for a while, but Xie Jinyin did not take the opportunity to attack, he snorted coldly: "The first sword in Guanzhong is indeed not someone who has earned a false reputation." Qiao Rushan said: "Qiao, there is some irony in your words. Could it be that you don't think Qiao is qualified to be your enemy?" Xie Jinyin said: "No! A certain family has debuted for more than forty years, and has gone through thousands of battles, and you, the surname Qiao, have met only strong enemies in this certain family's life!" Qiao Rushan looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "It's easy to say, easy to say, we don't care who is strong and who is weak, we will know when we try it on the blade—" The two of them stared at each other for a long time, and suddenly launched an attack at the same time. Qiao Rushan's thick and expanded figure, who lived in a bunt, swung his oars vigorously and swiftly to attack. Xie Jinyin's face was full of anger, and he was also attacking the enemy with all his might, but his movements were graceful, and his figure flowed away in the shadow of the oars, giving people a sense of ease. As Qiao Rushan waved his oars, his momentum was strong, and he kept exhaling and screaming, smashing the lake, adding to the momentum of this fight. A wave hit, and the boat bumped a bit. Qiao Rushan and Xie Jinyin fought hand-to-hand, and after exchanging a move, their figures returned to their original form, facing each other within five steps. I saw Xie Jinyin Zhuo standing on the bow, his body was as vertical as a spear, and the tip of his sword drooped slightly.On the opposite side, Qiao Rushan raised the wooden oar in his hand, and stared at him without blinking. In the tent, Zhao Zhilan was still sitting calmly, watching the two people outside the tent calmly fighting for life and death, even she had no way of knowing what she was feeling in her heart. All of a sudden, Qiao Rushan let out a roar, and took the lead in firing the oars. The oars did not leave the vital parts of Xie Jinyin's body. It was the first time Xie Jinyin encountered such a fierce attack, he was so anxious that he didn't have time to worry, his body twisted, and in a flash, he asked fifteen times in a row in that tiny place, as if turbulent under the slanting wind The light smoke makes people feel blurred. Qiao Rushan stepped forward, and then fired fifteen oars in a row. The oar surface followed the opponent's figure as if it had eyes. Suddenly, a strange wind rang out, and Xie Jinyin's body suddenly turned backwards. , the whole person was placed parallel to the deck of the boat, avoiding the range of the opponent's wooden oars. Xie Jinyin took a breath and said: "Qiao Rushan, your 'Impermanence Sword Style' has reached the level of a god when you use it on the paddle!" Qiao Rushan said in a deep voice: "Don't dare, Qiao has self-knowledge, just now Your Excellency has done a good way to move around lightly, Qiao has never seen it before, and sighs to himself..." Xie Jinyin was about to speak, Qiao Rushan replied: "Qiao has an unfeeling request-- " Xie Jinyin was surprised: "Speaking?" Qiao Rushan gritted his teeth and said: "If Qiao is unfortunate enough to be defeated and die today, I beg your Excellency to read that you have a dewy love with Zhilan—let her go!" Xie Jinyin remained silent, Qiao Rushan's complexion changed, and his body leaped into the air abruptly, jumping more than two feet high, the wooden oar swung horizontally, and slashed straight down. Beads of sweat appeared on Xie Jinyin's face, and he shouted: "What a move to block the river!" He made a decisive decision, swung the long sword in his right hand back, and at the same time retreated vertically with the strength of his legs and waist. That Qiao Rushan put all his eggs in one basket and changed three moves in a row in the air. The wooden oars have already poked out more than ten oars. Even if the speed is as strong as Xie Jinyin, he can't help but be shocked. Hearing the sound of "Hoo", Xie Jinyin turned around quickly to the left in the room where he could not let go, with his feet flying in the air, avoiding the paddle net, and then the sword flicked and picked, the light of the sword flashed like a long wave. At this moment, he has performed one of the most powerful three-day moves of the "Fufeng Sword Technique" that is unique in the world, "Golden Light Scattering"! It was too late to say it, but the sound of screaming suddenly lit up, followed by a cold murderous aura, and Xie Jinyin shot out a sword from the slanting stab—— But seeing that the sword energy was strong and restrained, Xie Jinyin held the sword and stood on the bow of the boat, and three steps away, Qiao Rushan's Adam's apple spewed out a fountain of blood, which continued continuously—— The moonlight suddenly darkened, and the night wind blew on the lake, and the startled bird screamed and flew away. In silence, Xie Jinyin held a long sword horizontally in his hand, approached Qiao Rushan who was slumped on the board of the boat, and murmured: "No one in the world can get away with this move of 'Golden Light Scattering'. Qiao Rushan, you did not die unjustly!" There was a pile of bloody water on the boat, dyed in a messy red pattern. Xie Jinyin walked into the tent with slow steps, but saw that Zhao Zhilan was still sitting motionless, her face turned from gray to livid. When the time shifted, Zhilan dreamed and said: "He, Rushan died?" Xie Jinyin nodded lazily. After killing someone, he seemed listless again. He put his sword into the box and said: "It's the first time in a certain house to kill people without reward." Zhao Zhilan clenched her silver teeth and said: "Hateful, the careful plan laid out by Rushan and I has all failed under your terrifying swordsmanship." Xie Jinyin once again felt the threatening and "murderous aura" emanating from the woman in front of him, and he suddenly realized that although he is also a person who often makes people feel "murderous"—especially when he draws out his sword— — but there is a difference between the two. Zhao Zhilan slowly closed her eyelids. After not seeing any movement for a long time, she opened them again and said: "Why don't you kill me?" Xie Jinyin said weakly: "Miss, I'm asking too much. A certain family doesn't have the habit of killing people for fun. It was out of necessity that they killed Mr. Ling just now, unless—" Zhao Zhilan said: "Unless what?" Xie Jinyin said: "Unless the girl wants to kill me, but a certain family can see that you have no knowledge of martial arts." Zhao Zhilan said: "Then when you killed my father last year, why didn't you kill me too! Didn't Sima Daoyuan's ten or so members die at your hands tonight?" Xie Jinyin said: "How many people to kill depends entirely on the employer's will. Last year, the person entrusted to a certain family indicated that as long as the father is removed..." Zhao Zhilan blurted out: "Who is it? Who is the person who hired you to kill my father?" Xie Jinyin shook his head and said: "It's about a certain family's trustworthiness, so I'm sorry that a certain family can't disclose it." Zhao Zhilan stood up, stepped out of the hood, walked to Qiao Rushan's side, stretched out her trembling hands, and gently caressed his cold cheeks. Xie Jinyin followed behind and said: "Just now, my husband tried to say that the reason why he wanted to attack a certain family was not only to avenge the girl's father, but also to obtain the qualification of a professional swordsman. Could it be that you are so desperate that you have to kill people to make a living?" Zhao Zhilan said: "When my father died, Taizhao Castle would be in ruins. Rushan and I were thrown into the rivers and lakes, and sometimes we couldn't keep eating. Rushan was just like you. He didn't bother to be a thief. The only way to become a professional swordsman..." Speaking of this, she stretched her right wrist, pulled out the long sword from Xie Jinyin's waist, and wiped it on her neck! Xie Jinyin didn't expect her to make such a bad move, so he waved his hand eagerly, and hit Zhilan's wrist with a 'pop' sound, Zhilan loosened her five fingers, and immediately swung the long sword down on the ship's plank. He bent down and picked up the sword in his hand, and said coldly: "A certain family has always opposed other people's suicide. If a girl has the courage to die, she should have the courage to live..." Zhao Zhilan's face changed drastically, and she said sharply: "Neither kill me, nor allow me to die, you...you are mean and ruthless, you don't show emotions, you know what is human nature? What is emotion?..." Xie Jinyin said lightly: "The girl is very right. A certain family doesn't care about the affairs of the world. They don't know any human feelings." Zhao Zailan said: "Don't care about everything? It's because you think that no one in the world can be your enemy. If those legendary martial arts masters are still alive..." Suddenly, Xie Jinyin seemed to be hit hard on his heart by a giant hammer.
