A master of synaesthesia, a kind of dragon in the martial arts world that never sees its end.
Almost every master of the synaesthesia realm will be called a martial arts legend. The heads of those famous sects consider it the most glorious thing in their lives to know a master of the synaesthesia realm.
If there was such a person in his sect, the local government and the imperial court would probably look at him with suspicion.
Although they had previously deduced that Ren Qi was a master who had entered the synaesthesia realm, they also had a very powerful and great person like Lin Guohan behind them.
But from this moment on, with Lin Guohan's death, everyone realized that they had put themselves in extreme danger.
They originally thought of themselves as hunters who went into the mountains to hunt tigers. Although it was dangerous, they came in groups, with bows and arrows, muskets, and traps.
However, at this moment, they realized that they were not hunters, but prey in the eyes of tigers.
When prey is in front of a tiger, it has only the option of running away.
Only by running faster than others can you have a chance to survive.
So everyone turned around and ran away, no longer thinking about taking down Ren Qi's head.
Naturally, the cold-faced student ran faster than anyone else. He used his Qing Kung Fu to step on the snow and chase the wind, and ran for several miles in one go. He was out of breath, making his face become as pale as snow.
At this speed, coupled with the obstacles of the jagged woods, no matter how fast the horse is, it can't keep up with him.
Although this hunting ended in failure, if word spread, it would also be a huge blow to his reputation, enough to make an outstanding broker never recover.
But so what?
Living in cold life is the most important thing.
As for temporary victory or defeat, it doesn't matter.
That's exactly what he thought and did.
After running over a low hill, Leng Miansheng saw the boat he had left by the lake.
That was his method of escape, told to no one.
As long as they get on the boat, leave the shore, and are more than thirty feet away from the lake, even the top Qinggong masters can only look at the lake and sigh.
Then he worked hard again and headed for the waterway connected to the lake. In just three days, he could go down the river and leave this ghost place full of snow.
Of course he was very happy to see the boat now and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
After running forward for a while, Leng Miansheng stopped again.
Just because he saw that in front of him, Ren Qi had been standing there for some time, and it seemed that he had been waiting for him for a while.
"Why is this happening?" Leng Miansheng murmured.
"I have to ask you this."
Ren Qi sneered, "I've heard that Leng Mian Sheng is only responsible for introducing dangerous businesses, but never personally participates in dangerous tasks.
You only treat others as tools and throw them away after use, because you value your own life very much. If so, why did you come here in person? ”
"Is this important?"
Leng Mian Sheng took out the fan again and flapped it in front of him, causing the cold wind to penetrate into his body more and more, making every inch of his bones feel cold.
"Not important."
Ren Qi gradually approached with a sword, "For me, this is not important."
"What about me?" Leng Miansheng pointed at himself.
"Your death is very important to me."
Hearing this, Leng Miansheng couldn't help but laugh.
"Leng Yu Renqi, you are indeed a magnanimous and honest person. I thought you should say this: Leng Miansheng, your death is very important to Jianghu.
But you only consider yourself, which is beyond my expectation. ”
"Aren't you the most important?"
Ren Qi sneered, "I have lost all the sects, kinship, and imperial society. Now I only live for myself, so of course I only need to care about what I want."
"No, that's not right." Leng Miansheng suddenly laughed.
"What's wrong?" Ren Qi glared at him.
Leng Miansheng shook his fan, and the scene above of two swordsmen fighting each other became lifelike.
"I mean, you think that you have cut off all ties with this world, so you think that you are a carefree person, which also makes your swordsmanship become increasingly better.
Because you know that ruthlessness is the best medicine for a swordsman. It makes your sword sharp and makes your sword movements decisive and smooth.
But I know that you still have something that has not been cut off, something that you have never thought of and thought it had disappeared long ago. ”
Ren Qi looked at him, feeling an uneasy feeling lingering in his heart for some reason.
However, he couldn't figure out where this uneasy feeling came from.
So he continued to stare at Leng Miansheng, wanting to hear him continue.
But Leng Miansheng just smiled faintly and was not in a hurry to express Ren Qi's doubts.
After a pause, he said coldly: "Ren Qi, haven't you noticed that the woman with you has disappeared?"
"What does her life and death have to do with me?" Ren Qi said coldly.
"Ha!"
The cold-faced student sneered, "What a big joke, Ren Qi. I just said that you were an honest and magnanimous person, but I didn't expect that you lied and told big lies.
You cannot ignore the woman in your mouth as you say. ”
As he spoke, he pointed his halberd at Ren Qi: "You are no longer the same as before! Do you think you are as cold and ruthless as the sword?
However, even you yourself have not discovered it, Ren Qi, in fact, you have not cut off the bonds and causes and effects that are entangled with you, so you have friends and lovers.
For a swordsman, this is superfluous. Ren Qi, you have not yet entered the realm of transformation, so you have exposed your weakness! ”
Ren Qi listened to him in silence, with a smile on his face, "What are you talking about?"
The cold-faced student's eyes flashed, "Ren Qi, you will know soon if this is my nonsense, because that woman is going to die soon!"
"Of course I will know whether she is dead or alive, but you, cold-faced student, your name has already been circled in the book of the King of Hell!"
Bah!
Ren Qi swung his sword, and the cold face died immediately.
Without even looking at Leng Miansheng's body, he turned around and crashed into the woods.
He ran back like this, and many people appeared in front of him.
However, those people were actually "deserters". They had been scared out of their wits by Ren Qi before. Now when they saw him running towards him, who dared to have the courage to resist and immediately fled.
Ren Qi ran over at lightning speed, lifted one of them to the tree stump with one kick, and asked him sternly: "Where is that woman and the subordinate who is following me?"
"Ren Qi, you killed five members of my family! I'm here to take revenge on you!" the man shouted.
"Then you didn't come to kill me when you saw me, but you ran away?"
Ren Qi exerted force on his legs, and the man's neck bones were immediately broken, and he died immediately.
Ren Qi left him, grabbed another person, and pressed his face against the tree.
"What grudge do you have against me?"
"No, not at all."
The man almost peed his pants in fear, "I only came here to pay for it."
"Where's that woman? Did you see it?"
"Which woman?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ren Qi crushed his Tianling Gai.
"If you ask such a question, letting you go will be in vain."
Ren Qi dropped the body and went to a young man who was already stiff on the spot, unable to move a step.
"Hey, where's that woman?" The boy was trembling all over. He didn't know whether it was because he was frightened or because of the cold weather.
When Ren Qi was about to lose his patience, he finally raised his hand stiffly and pointed to his right.
"Very good."
Ren Qi let him go and passed him by.
Suddenly he turned back and asked the young man, "Do you also have a grudge against me?"
The young man immediately shook his head like a rattle, but under the attention of Ren Qi, he finally nodded and said: "That's right, my mother trained me since I was a child and taught me the family's sword skills.
No matter whether it is cold or hot, I will swing the knife five hundred times every day without stopping, just to take off your head. ”
"Then where is your knife?"
The young man's lips moved a few times, and finally he whispered: "I lost it when I ran away."
"You're not going to seek revenge from me?"
The young man was silent for a while, shook his head and said: "No."
"Why?"
"Because I can't beat you. Even for the rest of my life, I'm sure I can't beat you. If that's the case, how can I take revenge?"
"You still have a long life, don't do stupid things."
Ren Qi ignored him and followed the young man's guidance.
Finally, in a clearing, he saw bodies scattered all over the place.
Some people can still struggle and gasp, but in the ice and snow, their blood will soon dry up and freeze.
One of them told him to stop.
That was Xiang Guang, who was separated from him during the fight.
Xiang Guang was lying on the ground with a broken hand and a deep wound on his leg, as if he had been hit by a projectile. He was bleeding from his throat and was still breathing.
As for Zhao Qian, Ren Qi looked around but didn't find her body, so he couldn't help but feel complicated for a moment.
When Xiang Guang saw Ren Qi, his pupils that had begun to dilate finally regained their luster, and his lips moved twice, making only the slightest sound.
His throat was probably severely damaged and he couldn't speak anymore.
"From the day you become an Ouchi master, you should have known about such a day and prepared for it."
Ren Qi's words made Xiang Guang stunned for a moment, and then he showed a forced smile.
"We used to kill and arrest people all day long, but now we are being killed and surrounded by people. This is what we should do. There is nothing to complain about.
Do you think that if you change your ways, the past things will no longer exist? It's all the same, it's not cause and effect, but it's inevitable. ”
Ren Qi sighed and took out a small package wrapped in oil paper from his belt, only the size of a peanut.
"I have always kept this medicine by my side. I have carried it with me everywhere for so many years.
This is what I prepared for myself. You may not know it if you are late in the industry, but almost every master in the field has prepared such a pill.
In order to fall into the hands of those rebels one day, we will not suffer inhuman torture. How we deal with them, they will deal with us, which is fair.
Therefore, self-commitment is a very important means. ”
After Ren Qi finished speaking, he put the pills back into his belt and pulled out his sword.
"Where is Zhao Qian?"
When Xiang Guang heard the name, hot tears flowed from his eyes, he kept blinking, his mouth opened and closed, and he made a sound of breathing with blood foam.
He seemed to be blaming himself for his inability to do things well, which made Ren Qi's uneasy feeling grow stronger.
"It doesn't matter, you did your best."
Ren Qi put his sword against Xiang Guang's throat, "I'll give you a ride."
He gently pressed his hand forward, Xiang Guang opened his mouth, and finally died.
When Ren Qi took his sword back, he heard the sound of fighting in the forest again.
He couldn't help but feel excited and immediately ran to the other side of the forest.
What greeted him were several projectiles fired from the side. Ren Qi rolled over, barely dodging the bullets.
Then, before he even finished getting up, he flew out with his feet close to the ground, heading towards the forest that was emitting smoke from gunpowder.
Several people seemed to have their eyes turned red. They threw aside their muskets and drew their weapons and charged towards Ren Qi.
Ren Qi raised his hand expressionlessly and killed them all in just a few strokes.
One of them seemed to be a strong man who had practiced horizontal kung fu and was protected by iron armor. With his last breath, he grabbed Ren Qi's belt.
"Why, do you have any last words? I don't have time to listen."
"Not any last words."
The strong man spat out a mouthful of blood, which fell on Ren Qi's clothes, causing him to frown.
"Ren Qi, although we have not killed you, we have completed the best revenge for you."
The strong man's smile was very sincere, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be pulled to his ears.
"This is what we can do. It will make you, an invincible master in the world, feel pain. Ren Qi, you have committed many crimes and deserve this!"
"Calling me pain?"
Ren Qi wiped the sword across his neck, "You can't do it."
After killing a few people, Ren Qi walked quickly through the forest again. The sound of the battle was getting smaller and smaller behind the forest.
After walking through the woods, Ren Qi stood in the open space.
In front of him, there were many corpses lying in random directions. The miserable situation was the same as what he had seen before.
Zhao Qian was alone in the snow, with her back turned to him, and her feet were covered with blood.
“Well done.”
Ren Qi's tone became more relaxed, "I thought you would only use your body to ask me to help you get revenge. As for anything else, you can't do it anymore."
"Really?"
Zhao Qian's clear laughter was the same as usual.
"I suddenly want to ask you a question."
Ren Qi looked around, but there was no one alive anymore.
"You ask, but I may not answer you."
"It's okay, I'm just asking."
Zhao Qian paused and asked in a low voice: "From the beginning to the end, have you ever liked me?"
"No."
Ren Qi did not hesitate, "I never like anyone. I am just hypocritical and calculating towards my colleagues. Even if I marry a wife, it is not because I like her, just because she is good-looking and not annoying.
Even my children, I have never hugged them. ”
"Although it's sad, it somehow reassures me."
Zhao Qian turned around with a bright smile on her face.
Ren Qi's heart couldn't help but be touched by her smiling face, and then he suddenly shrank again.
Blood flowed continuously from Zhao Qian's chest, and then poured into the snow.
Ren Qi watched this scene, his hand squeaking on the hilt of the sword. (End of chapter)
