Chapter 120: Don't Have Sorrow and Secret Hate (4)

That day was in front of us again.

When the matter came out of Shenlongzi's mouth, the ghost shadow still felt a burst of surprise, and said, "How do you know these things? The flying knife in the Butterfly Valley was really issued by you? You were in that inn at the time?" Shenlongzi looked at the ghost shadow and nodded, but he didn't explain too much.

The ghost shadow sighed, and his heart was as painful as a knife, as if

The ghost shadow was already able to guess that when he entered the Sword Pavilion and stole the demon sword "Tianwen", the entire rivers and lakes had already received the news. Shenlongzi should be concerned about his own safety and rushed back to Butterfly Valley from a foreign land. He used a flying knife in his hand to deter the Mo brothers......

The ghost shadow sighed again, and then said, "On that day, in the inn outside Butterfly Valley, many people died. We saw those strange-shaped kites, and knew that it was Mu Liangfeng, the king of Zhennan, who arrived with the five poisonous boys of Miaojiang, in order to avoid conflicts with them, the eldest sister thought of going to Shuchuan Tangmen to take a trip. The investigation is abrupt and false, but in fact, the evacuation is true. ”

Shenlongzi hid in the corner of the inn that day and pretended to be drunk and witnessed everything. At that time, Shenlongzi had disappeared from the rivers and lakes for five years, his long hair had already covered his face, and he was wearing a shabby ragged shirt, so everyone did not recognize him, only as a down-and-out beggar.

Shenlongzi turned his head and looked out the window again.

Far away in Liaodong, he heard the sound of soldiers intersecting again. The Ming soldiers and the Manchurian Tartars were fighting bloodily, and one by one the figures slowly fell, and they were all wounded by swords......

Hearing the ghost's words, he nodded, and said: "Those people in the inn all died at the hands of Dolgon, the prince of Jin Rui after Manchuria, but they died unjustly. In any case, they rushed to Butterfly Valley from all directions because you stole the demon sword 'Tianwen'. It's really hard for me to imagine that you would dare to risk the world's condemnation to go to the Sword Pavilion to steal that demon sword. Even I don't necessarily have the courage to be the enemy of the Famous Sword Villa and the entire Jianghu. ”

Shenlongzi's words were like steel needles piercing into the heart of the ghost shadow, and he couldn't help but sigh. Shenlongzi, who only listened, then spoke: "I know, in order to get rid of you being just a shadow of me, I want to prove that you are stronger than me in front of my eldest sister and prove that you are really courageous." But ......"

Shenlongzi didn't get the words through. The ghost shadow understood the meaning of his words, and when he was told through his heart, he was relieved.

There was wine on the table, but Shenlongzi didn't drink it. He wanted to keep himself awake. But the ghost shadow still drank a few glasses in a row.

After drinking, the ghost shadow put out the words suppressed in his heart, and said: "You and I both grew up in Butterfly Valley, except for Ji Mingzhen, who raised us, and the flower fairy is our only friend. When we grew up, I swore to myself that I would marry her when I grew up. An embarrassed bitter smile appeared on his face, and he continued: "Who would have thought that in her heart, only you would be spared." And I'm just a younger brother in her heart. I'm like a shadow of you. ”

The ghost shadow smiled bitterly and said, "It's like your and my names, which seem to be destined for different lives between us." You are a god, and I am a ghost, you are the dragon and phoenix among people, but I am only a shadow of you. I was unhappy in my heart, and I secretly swore that I must be stronger than you, even if it was only in one aspect. I just want to let my eldest sister know that my ghost shadow is definitely not the shadow of the dragon. But ......"

It turns out everything.

Shenlongzi nodded, he had long known that the flower fairy was interested in him, but he didn't want to hurt the ghost shadow because of this. He often traveled out of the valley to allow time to dilute everything.

But it backfired.

Shenlongzi sighed lightly and said, "You practiced martial arts hard and became a devil in the rivers and lakes, making the entire rivers and lakes terrified." You did that, and you were much better than me. But you don't know the heart of the eldest sister at all, and you don't understand her thoughts. The eldest sister is a very simple person, all she needs in her heart is a quiet life. ”

Shenlongzi sighed, but said, "The eldest sister was forced to follow her mother to move out of the Four Seasons Villa and live in Butterfly Valley since she was a child. This incident itself has had an indelible impact on her. She had always lived a simple life...... The bigger and bigger you are on the rivers and lakes, it can only make the pain in the eldest sister's heart heavier and heavier, and it can only make her worry about you more. ”

Even so, the flower fairy never blamed him, but only worried about him.

The ghost shadow also sighed and said, "These are things I didn't expect. The eldest sister wants a quiet life, don't you think it's because she was hurt too badly by you?" Ghost Shadow continued: "The eldest sister has had a soft spot for you since she was a child, and she loves you very much, it is impossible for you not to know it. Before I entered Butterfly Valley, you had already lived together, and you were childhood sweethearts, and you didn't guess, didn't you?"

Shenlongzi smiled on his face, but his heart was painful. If his father hadn't died, how could he be brought back to the butterfly by Ji Mingzhen because in the Butterfly Valley, there were only two of us playmates. ”

The ghost shadow continued, "Do you remember a time when you left Butterfly Valley without news for more than a year. The eldest sister worries about your safety every day, for fear that something will happen to you. But one day, you were injured like a lonely wolf and returned to Butterfly Valley. You say to the eldest sister, 'Eldest sister, I know a girl and I want to move out of the valley. The eldest sister was secretly grieving for your injury, but you said such a sentence. Thinking about it, the eldest sister's heart is like a knife, although she has a smile on her face, but do you know the bitterness in her heart? You know, after you left, the eldest sister locked herself in the room and cried for three days. I stayed outside my room for three days. It was that time that I really started to hate you. On that day, I swore that I would never let my eldest sister get hurt in the slightest. ”

Of course Shenlongzi knows. That year, he went out of the valley to run errands and happened to meet Yang Lian's daughter Yang Shuixian, and Shenlongzi was so fascinated by her that he couldn't extricate himself.

That year, Yang Lian supported Zhu Youxiao to ascend the throne as emperor, and worshiped Yang Lian as the imperial history of the left capital. The following year, it was promoted to the imperial history of the capital. Shenlongzi and Yang Shuixian traveled hand in hand, but unfortunately they were ambushed by the thirteenth floor, and in order to protect Yang Shuixian, they were seriously injured. As soon as he recovered a little, he immediately rushed back to the Butterfly Valley and told the flower fairy about it. Originally, he just wanted the flower fairy to share his happiness, but what he brought to the flower fairy was so hurtful. Before his injuries healed, he hurried out of Butterfly Valley.

He also specially forged several flying knives engraved with daffodils and dragon motifs for Yang Shuixian.

Ghost Shadow continued: "That was the first time I had seen my eldest sister so sad, and it was from that time that I told myself that I would make you regret it. When the eldest sister was in a stable mood, I also left Butterfly Valley. He looked at his hands, which were stained with the blood of the people of the rivers and lakes, and continued: "I have become an outlaw killer in the rivers and lakes." I just want the whole rivers and lakes to know my existence, and I want to make the people in the rivers and lakes afraid when they hear my name. ”

The ghost shadow paused for a moment and said, "Later, I found out that the girl who was good friends with you was Yang Shuixian, the daughter of Yang Lian, the imperial history of Zuodu, and I was thinking about how to take revenge on you and vent my evil anger for the eldest sister. ”

Shenlongzi sighed and sat quietly, looking at the wine glass on the table, but he never moved. He seemed to be a little lost, and his already pale face was even more ugly. His heart was tormented endlessly.

The ghost shadow who only listened continued: "That year, I just killed the Yangtze River Sanjiao, and I was drinking alone in the Yellow Crane Tower. Just as I was drinking alone, I only heard the sound of 'kicking and kicking' up the stairs, and my footsteps were heavy, but I didn't care. You know, I don't have any friends. ”

If the ghost shadow still has friends, it is only the flower fairy and the dragon child.

The ghost shadow stood in front of the window and looked at the twilight outside the window, just like standing on the Yellow Crane Tower, looking at the water of the Yangtze River flowing eastward, and said: "I saw a middle-aged man wearing silk clothes and a hooked nose and a treacherous face with a hooked nose and a treacherous face, and brought a group of people to the Yellow Crane Tower. At first, I thought they were looking for my bad people, but I saw them drive away all the people upstairs. The man sat directly across from me, and with a flick of his hand, a man behind him carried a wooden box on the table. He opened the wooden box, but saw pearls, agate, gold and silver inside, which made my heart move. ”

"I knew this man must have asked me, but I kept drinking and my face didn't change. I saw this person laughing wickedly and asked, 'Your Excellency, but the shadow of the ghost in the rivers and lakes?' I hated him when I saw his treacherous face, but I had already begun to scold him hundreds of times in my heart. I said coldly, 'If you have something to say, let it go.' Don't disturb my mood. Otherwise, my sword will poke a few holes in you, so that you will remember me forever. Far from being afraid, this person was quite calm, and he still laughed and said, "The ghost shadow is really arrogant, which is admirable." ’”

"He pushed the box on the table to me, and said, 'I have only sent this gold and silver to you at the behest of the master, but please laugh ......at it.' I don't like to beat around the bush and drag mud and water. The man laughed and said, "The ghost shadow is quick to talk, and I can't hide it." I am Zhou Yingqiu, the imperial history of the left capital, and I am here to find you on the orders of my master, the nine-thousand-year-old Lord Wei. It's nothing more than asking you to help but killing a few people. ’”

Zhou Yingqiu, Wei Zhongxian.

When Shenlongzi heard this, he was silently shocked in his heart, knowing that Zhou Yingqiu was the head of the "Ten Dogs" under Wei Zhongxian. Since Wei Zhongxian squeezed Yang Lian out of the court, he let Zhou Yingqiu, a dog-legged man, rise to the imperial history of the left capital.

Shenlongzi heard that this person is good at cooking, and Wei Zhongxian's nephew, Su Ningbo Wei Liangqing, likes to eat his roasted pig's trotters the most. His ascension to the left capital of the imperial history is rumored to depend on this, and he is known as the "Simmering Hoof General Constitution".

A person can rely on a roasted pig's trotters and be promoted to the imperial history of the left capital, throughout history, but there is only one case of the Ming Dynasty.

The ghost shadow continued: "I don't like to have too much to do with people in the court, I know that the master who can let Wei Zhongxian find the people of the rivers and lakes to kill must be the person who disagrees with his political views or offended him in the court, and I think he is a loyal and patriotic person." Wei Zhongxian was inconvenient to use Jinyiwei and other spy agencies, but he thought of asking the people from the rivers and lakes to help him solve the affairs of the court. Therefore, Shang did not want to take this job, so as not to make the people of the rivers and lakes despised. But the box of treasures in front of me made me intoxicated and hesitated. ”

"I only heard Zhou Yingqiu speak: 'The people you want to kill at the age of nine thousand are just a few declining literati. For you, it's something that can be solved with just a single shot. But your bounty ......' he reached out and looked at the box on the table. I asked, 'Who is it?' Zhou Yingqiu didn't answer, just put a letter on the table, turned around and left. When he was about to go downstairs, he said, 'All the gold and silver on the table are yours now.' Although I didn't want it in my heart, I didn't refuse, and I waited for them to go far away. I took the letter on the table in my hand, took out the letter and looked at it, but the person who assassinated him was a member of the Donglin Party, of course, the first person was Yang Lian......"

Shenlongzi heard the words of the ghost shadow, and had already thought that the person who was killed must be a member of the Donglin Party, but he didn't expect Yang Lian to be in the first place. I thought in my heart that in the book "Donglin Point General Record", Yang Lian is Yang Lian, the Heavenly Yongxing Great Swordsman of the Five Tiger Generals of the Ma Army.

Yang Lian devoted his life to fighting for the three cases of "Attack Case", "Red Pill Case", and "Palace Removal Case" to Zhenggong Gong, assisting Tianqi Zhu Youxiao to ascend the throne and being promoted to the imperial history of Zuodu, as if he had become the leader of the Donglin Party. Yang Lian's anti-eunuch party to curb Wei Zhongxian made him a heart disease for Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian knew the principle of "shooting people first and horses first, and capturing thieves first and capturing kings", and Yang Lian became his first choice to retaliate against the Donglin Party. Wei Zhongxian pretended to use the hand of Tianqi Zhu Youxiao to dismiss Yang Lian as a citizen. selfish revenge, but still unwilling to give up, will want to put death and then hurry. Therefore, he found the ghost shadow and asked him to kill Yang Lian.

The ghost shadow continued: "I know that the Donglin Party people are loyal and patriotic, and they are benevolent and righteous people. I didn't want to kill them, not to mention that they were all weak scholars who were powerless. But when I knew that Yang Shuixian, who was good friends with you, was Yang Lian's daughter, and thought of you saying goodbye to Butterfly Valley and making my eldest sister cry for three days, there was an irrepressible fire in my heart. I don't know how to explain it to you now, it was like falling under some kind of spell at that time, which was to ruin your reputation, make you never look up, and let the whole world hate you. I always thought that in this way, the eldest sister would definitely feel better. But who knows, this incident has made me lose and go further and further down the wrong path. And the eldest sister did not feel any better, but made her worry about the pain even more. ”

Shenlongzi let out a long sigh, knowing that there are only two things in the world that can make people go crazy. One is "love" and the other is "hate". The ghost shadow is the "love" for the flower fairy and the "hatred" for the dragon child, and he is carried away.

When you really fall in love with someone, or when you really hate someone, there will be an indescribable invisible magic in your heart that pushes you to do a lot of incomprehensible and crazy things.

Shenlongzi's heart is in pain, and the matter has come to this point today, and it is irreparable. Yang Lian has died unjustly, and Yang Shuixian also hates himself for this. In fact, there is nothing more painful than the flower fairy. Shenlongzi and Ghost Shadow were both playmates she grew up with, but they became enemies, and even became public enemies.

Mistakes are made in a single thought, but it is very difficult to undo such mistakes.

Shenlongzi already knew that Ghost Shadow liked the flower fairy, but at that time, the flower fairy was in love with herself. When the ghost shadow saw it, he was sullen all day long, and used sword training to kill time. Shenlongzi was so uneasy that he lied and went out of the valley to do things, wanting to leave enough time and space for the flower fairy and the ghost shadow. But he never thought that he would meet Yang Shuixian, the person who haunted his dreams.

He and Yang Shuixian have been in love for a long time, and they have also been recognized by Yang Lian. In those days, Yang Lian assisted Zhu Youxiao to ascend the throne, worked hard, and was promoted to the imperial history of the left capital. The wedding of Shenlongzi and Yang Shuixian was also put on the agenda, but unexpectedly, when the two were playing in the mountains and rivers, they were ambushed by the thirteenth floor and were seriously injured.

There are always so many accidents in life. Smooth sailing is only present in the good wishes of people.

Shenlongzi thinks about it, for more than a year, the flower fairy and the ghost shadow get along day and night, and they will definitely slowly forget themselves. That day, he ran back to Butterfly Valley, wanting to tell them his good news and make them happy together.

Things were unexpected. Providence makes people, but it cannot be violated. Then he quietly went out of the valley......

The ghost shadow opened his mouth to speak, interrupting Shenlongzi's thoughts, only to hear him say: "When I think of the pain of the eldest sister, I will increase my hatred for you by ten points. In order to make my eldest sister happy, I decided to assassinate the Donglin Party, especially Yang Lian. On that day, I finally came to Donglin Academy......"

The ghost shadow stood in front of the window, looking at the Donglin Academy in the east of the city. The academy has long been submerged in the curtain of night. But what the ghost saw was blood, killing, cursing and terror.

The ghost shadow continued: "I rushed to Donglin Academy, just in time for Yang Lian to give a lecture. Naturally, I was in no mood to listen to his lectures. With the sword in hand, there are already more than a dozen scholars who have no power to restrain the chicken. My sword is full of blood, and my eyes are full of hatred. Everyone on the scene was taken aback, and their faces instantly turned pale. But Yang Lian is different, he is always expressionless, and I can't guess his heart. He was like a cold spear, and when I saw him, my hands began to tremble, and my heart began to panic......"

The ghost shadow said this, as if it happened last night a few years ago.

Shenlongzi knew that Yang Lian did not seek family wealth, did not seek to enter the phase, and did not seek to leave a name in history. Only in the world, in the country and the people, willing to suffer humiliation, willing to be tortured, as if death is home, there is a strong spirit, and the will not change with ten thousand blades.

The ghost shadow is just a mere killer, and he is not in his eyes.

The ghost shadow continued: "I want to make a move and kill Yang Lian." But he didn't expect that he had already spoken, and said, "Wei Zhongxian sent you, right?" His voice was loud, sonorous, and full of confidence, as if he was a warrior who regarded death as his home. I was shocked in my heart, but I heard him speak, 'Wei Zhongxian is only me who holds a grudge, please show mercy to the hero's subordinates, and let go of these weak scholars who are powerless.' I, Yang, am the one who bears all these sins. He didn't ask my name, he just asked for his own life to exchange the lives of the others in Donglin Academy. ”
