The two ghosts from Longxi, the four demons from Jiangdong, and the eight Vajras from Mobei gathered in the courtyard.
This place is next to the lake next to the boundless snow-capped mountains. This courtyard is worth a lot of money, and the heads of the twelve people inside are even more valuable.
Because they are also famous imperial criminals, the bounties on several of them are even close to Ren Qi's, and their names are only below him. They can be called the second or third largest imperial criminals in Kyushu.
"Will the boss really come?"
I don’t know who asked this.
"Boss?"
The green-faced ghost Jia Sheng couldn't help but laugh, "Why do we imperial prisoners still recognize each other as brothers based on the reward list?"
As soon as he said these words, the courtyard was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Bloodthirsty Vajra Liu Fang touched his smooth, round head, "If you say this, I should call myself the third child."
Everyone laughed again.
These people were wary of each other. They usually lived in solitary confinement, like poisonous insects in a cave, but now they gathered in the courtyard because of a greeting.
"Immortal Master Zixia saved my life, I have to repay her."
Jia Sheng, the green-faced ghost, is very serious, which is completely different from his previous wild and uninhibited attitude.
Bloodthirsty Vajra Liu Fang still smiled, "I'm not here to repay the favor, just because Master Xueguang said that if I finish this for him, he will accept me as a disciple."
"Why have you never mentioned this before?"
Someone in the Eight Great Vajras asked him, obviously dissatisfied.
"How can such a thing be brought up?"
Liu Fang looked sideways at others, "They are immortal masters and immortals. Do you think they are neighbors or old friends? From ancient times to the present, no one would easily tell others about their encounter with immortals.
Keeping secrets is the privilege and obligation of those of us who have a destiny. ”
After a pause, looking at the mixed expressions on everyone's faces, Liu Fang asked again: "Then you, why did you come here? For money or reputation?"
The remaining people all turned their attention to the person in the courtyard.
That man was Shen Zhenghai, one of the Four Demons of Jiangdong.
Shen Zhenghai looks to be in his early forties, in his prime, breathing evenly and steadily, and looking energetic.
He is the most famous doctor in the world. He is also said to have made Hua Tuo sick and hurt Bian Que. This means that he can cure what Hua Tuo cannot cure and can see what Bian Que cannot.
But there is a sequelae of going to him for medical treatment, that is, you have to promise him one thing.
He has the final say on when to honor this request and how to do it.
As famous imperial convicts in Kyushu, of course they don't have to abide by it. However, the most worrying thing in the world is that there are fools who will abide by this agreement.
It just so happens that everyone thinks that everyone else is a fool except themselves, the only fool in the world.
Therefore, in order to prevent Shen Zhenghai from taking revenge, everyone gathered here.
Even notorious criminals are always worried that they will inevitably be killed one day.
In other words, it is precisely because they have been on the run and do not want to be killed that they become criminals and have a reward on their head.
Seeing everyone staring at him, Shen Zhenghai just sneered and said: "I have no connection with those monks, but Ren Qi and I do have a blood feud. This is the reason why I summoned you."
"No matter what, after this time, our favor will be paid off, right?" someone asked.
"I never break a promise."
Shen Zhenghai nodded, "You should know my moral character. I want others to abide by my principles and be trustworthy to me, so I must also keep their trustworthy words to others."
Regarding this point, the people sitting here have no objections. It is precisely because Shen Zhenghai keeps his word and will not make demands on them again and again that these evil people are gathered here.
"Speaking of which, Leng Yu Ren Qi, I haven't heard from him for more than seven years."
"I did some research before coming here."
Jia Sheng, the green-faced ghost, mused: "Seven years ago, Ren Qi was found to be secretly affiliated with the White Lotus Sect. All the masters in Yujing came out to hunt him down throughout the city.
It is said that the master Ouchi lost nearly a hundred people that night, but could not keep him.
He didn't know what method he could use to break out of Yujing under the dragnet.
Di Wei, the chief internal officer at the time, was so furious that even Prince Gong was alerted and issued the most severe order to kill Ren Qi.
Not only the pursuers from Yujing, but also the masters from Jiangnan and Guangxi went north to surround and intercept Ren Qi.
Even under such a dragnet, he was actually asked to kill hundreds of people, bathed in blood, and escaped from the sword.
After his last appearance in Guangdong and Guangxi, he was never heard from again.
Some people say that he was too seriously injured and died in the mountains.
Others said that he escaped from Kyushu and disappeared.
Anyway, we suffered a lot from him during that time. The masters and officers and soldiers suddenly became diligent and plundered everywhere, which made me hide in the mountains for two months. ”
"A green-faced ghost is also afraid of being hunted?"
Bloodthirsty Vajra Liu Fang laughed loudly.
"What's so funny about this? Don't you cherish your own life?"
"That's not what I said."
Liu Fang suddenly looked mysterious, "Actually, I heard that Ren Qi's collusion with the White Lotus Sect is just a small matter.
After all, who in this world is not inextricably linked to the White Lotus Sect or other rebels? There is a Taoist in Guandong who has said that if you are not loyal to the imperial court, then you must be absolutely loyal to the White Lotus Sect.
So, it sounds like it is a capital crime and a felony for confiscating a house and exterminating an entire family. In fact, it is not. It is not that great, especially for a person like Ren Qi. He is the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Household. What has he not seen before?
Relationships communicate between heaven and earth.
However, the reason why he was hunted down by Ouchi masters and was listed as the number one imperial criminal in Kyushu was because he insulted and killed the princess of Jinhua. ”
"Oh~~"
Sighs echoed throughout the room.
Shen Zhenghai looked gloomy.
Liu Fang took a look at everyone's reactions and said, "The masters in the inner circle are all evil ghosts in human skin, and they are all beasts.
Not to mention women who are as beautiful as flowers, sometimes even husbands with unusual looks cannot escape their vicious hands. ”
"Tell the important point."
Jia Sheng urged him, "Calling those great masters as bastards is just to flatter them. Compared with them, we can all be considered
Tell me about Princess Jinhua. I heard that she was as beautiful as a flower. She suddenly died suddenly in her house at the age of sixteen. It turned out that she was raped by Ren Qi?
This matter is too mysterious. After all, the Prince's Mansion is heavily guarded and there is no way for experts to calculate it. ”
"A master has no calculation?"
Liu Fang sneered, "Don't forget, Ren Qi is a master among masters, and he ranks first among the nine commanders in the palace.
I don’t know how many ruthless people the White Lotus Dharma King died in his hands. For him, let alone the palace, it is the Grand Inner Palace. Isn’t it the same as entering and exiting the home? ”
"Nonsense! He is already a master in the palace. Doesn't he have to fight to get in and out of the Forbidden Palace?"
"..."
Liu Fang wiped his sweat and stared at Jia Sheng, "Should I continue talking?"
"Speak!"
Jia Sheng stretched out his hand and said, "If you interrupt a good story, you will go to hell after death." "You also know, right?"
Liu Fang ignored him and just continued: "That Princess Jinhua is miserable enough. She was going to marry Prince Shadan next month, but she didn't expect to be ruined by a villain like Ren Qi. Why not?" It's a pity.
It is said that when the servants entered, Princess Jinhua was naked, with..."
"Stop talking."
Shen Zhenghai stopped everyone and said with a gloomy face: "He's here."
The red-faced ghost Li Qing has the brightest ears and the sharpest eyes among them, like a hawk.
He rushed to the window several times and looked outside.
Sure enough, in the snowy sky, a man wearing a pink cotton robe and a felt hat walked towards here.
"Should we pretend?" he asked over his shoulder.
"Huh? What are you pretending to do?"
"Young Master, servant, maid? Actor Kao?" Jia Sheng asked.
"What you said is very good."
Shen Zhenghai smiled, "But there are no women here, right?"
"Same."
So everyone gave up and stood in their respective positions, either closing their eyes and concentrating, or holding their weapons, just waiting for Ren Qi to come in.
Ren Qi came over in the wind and snow, pushed the door open, walked through the courtyard, and then entered the house.
As soon as he entered the house, Jia Sheng asked him immediately.
"Leng Yu Ren Qi! Do you remember our Longxi Shuanggui?"
Ren Qi ignored him and just said calmly: "I haven't heard of it."
"He has never heard of you two."
Liu Fang smiled, "I won't humiliate myself. The famous Ren Qi must have never heard of our Mobei Eight Vajras, right? After all, we come from a small place and can't get on the stage."
< br>
Ren Qi didn't even respond this time, he just picked a chair and sat down.
Although Jia Sheng was angry and put his hand on the sword, he did not take it out of the sheath.
Because others didn't take action, there was no need for him to be the first challenger.
Shen Zhenghai didn't intend to ask Ren Qi if he knew about him, but Ren Qi stared at him.
"Doctor Shen, are you okay?"
Shen Zhenghai glared at Ren Qi and said coldly: "Commander Ren, when I went to Yujing before, you personally led me into the palace."
"It was nice then, wasn't it?"
Ren Qi squinted his eyes, "I remember that the sun was very warm that day. It was so cold in the twelfth month of winter that my hands didn't even feel stiff."
"But I was very nervous that day."
Shen Zhenghai also recalled the past with Ren Qi.
"That was my first time entering the Imperial Forbidden Palace. When the masters from the Imperial Palace found me and took me to Yujing, I thought I was going to die.
After all, I have treated many imperial prisoners, and even many people from the White Lotus Sect have been taken care of by me, so I thought they were escorting me to Yujing for execution. ”
"I took care of you." Ren Qi said.
"Yes, very good care."
Shen Zhenghai sneered, "Before entering the palace, you already asked for 10,000 taels of silver from me. You said this was hush money for you, lest the masters of the palace arrest me and torture me to extract a confession because of my previous deeds. , these ten thousand taels will be used as the cost of protecting me, and you will let me come out of it safe and sound.”
"Ouchi has always been like this. As long as they are valuable, they can do anything."
"But you didn't tell me. In fact, you only asked me to treat the queen."
Ren Qi just smiled, "It's our habit to ask for money. We can't change it."
"It's not about asking for money. If you want money, others must be willing to give it to you. You just reach into your pocket and grab it."
"But you also got a lot of reward that time, didn't you? And I also suffered retribution later."
"What retribution?" Shen Zhenghai asked curiously.
"Later, I was chased by Ouchi and fled all the way south. When I was seriously injured, I wanted to seek treatment from you, but because of this I felt guilty, so I left in front of your house."
< br>
"You also feel guilty?"
Shen Zhenghai's expression became more and more unhappy, "I think you gave up because you saw knifemen gathering at my door."
Ren Qi didn't speak, but acquiesced with a smile.
After a pause, he suddenly said: "Come on, I have to hurry."
When Ren Qi stood up, the people in the room immediately reacted and followed him, either standing up or gripping their weapons.
"Ren Qi, I will tell you everything, because I want you to understand until you die."
"There is no need."
Ren Qi drew his sword, looked around at the people in the room, and nodded. There were thirteen people in total.
"What are you counting?"
The green-faced ghost Jia Sheng felt a sense of discomfort, as if he were an item on a shelf or a chicken waiting to be slaughtered in a chicken coop, letting the butcher count the goods.
"It's nothing. I'm afraid that if I don't kill them all later and miss one or two, I will make them worried and uneasy all day long. This is not good."
Ren Qi turned the purple sword in his hand.
This is one of the six quick swords in the world.
In fact, speaking of it, the functions and sword moves of each sword are obviously different. Just like killing a cow, you need a sharp knife to disembowel and bleed, a long knife to slit the belly, a heavy knife to cut the bones, and deboning. thin knife.
Ren Qi took a deep breath and exhaled a burst of white air.
Before the white energy dissipated, his sword had already thrust forward.
The green-faced ghost Jia Sheng had already been on guard against him, wary of Ren Qi's sword.
Just as he was about to take action, someone struck faster than him. It was Liu Fang, the Bloodthirsty Vajra who had been calm just now, chatting and telling stories with his friends.
Liu Fang practices Nei Jia Heng Kung Fu, and he has almost mastered it all over his body. He is the most feared among the nine great masters of Xuan Guan.
Because he is not only invulnerable, but also extremely powerful. He is a very destructive person, but his defense is equally despairing.
Therefore, as soon as he took action, although others did not think that he could defeat Ren Qi alone, they already felt that Ren Qi should suffer some hardships.
No matter how fast and sharp his sword is, it will be useless when it hits a stone.
Bah!
One sword!
Bloodthirsty Vajra Liu Fang's big round head fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
Green-faced ghost Jia Sheng's eyes were filled with tears. He clearly saw that the sword was ridiculously slow, as if a master in a martial arts gym was rehearsing and showing off his movements.
Liu Fang also concentrated on resisting this sword.
The throat is the softest, but precisely because it is the critical organ of the human body, it is also the most diligently practiced in horizontal kung fu. Even street performers can hold a steel gun against their necks, let alone A great master like Liu Fang.
However, Ren Qi really just cut off Liu Fang's head with a sword, just like peeling off a piece of bamboo.
Suddenly the only sound in the room was the sound of breathing. (End of chapter)
