Chapter 182 I am Feng Yao The bonfire was burning brightly, and the three of them sat beside it, their voices as small as mosquitoes and flies, drowned out by the crackling sound of burning strangers present were chatting or drinking, and they neither knew nor paid any attention to Wu Gensheng who was in a deadly situation. "You are the leader of Quan Xing. Do I need a reason to kill you?" Xu Xin sneered and teased: "If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being unlucky. You've got to go down the toilet and do something else but be a beast." "Do you remember what you said before?" "You weren't forced to join Quan Xing, were you? This place is full of murderous intent, and you know that. Now it's just that your road has come to an end. Who can you blame?" Although it has been a long time, Wu Gensheng's memory is not vague. He had just written to them not long ago, so he naturally recalled the details of their two meetings. The boomerang from many years ago hit him right between the eyebrows at this moment. Even Wu Gensheng didn't know how to refute it for a moment. Could he deny his past self? Ridiculous. Speculating on Xu Xin's words, Wu Gensheng had a rough idea in his mind, but he was not sure. With a wry smile on his lips, he turned his head stiffly, no longer talking to Xu Xin, but instead looked at Dong Chang, who was more stable and moral. "Chat? Can you help me solve my doubts?"
"If there is a reason for this, I will listen to it. You can send me away. It can be regarded as a way to help me get through this journey." Having said this, Wu Gensheng was a little dazed. Through the nearby firelight, his empty eyes looked at the shadowy figures present, and the memories in his heart briefly went back to a year ago. If he had also died in the cave, perhaps he would not be as painful as he is now, with his obsession in his heart but unable to realize it. Just thinking of that old monster that has lived for thousands of years, a feeling of despair and powerlessness fills every inch of my body. Facing such an existence, can I really get my daughter's body back? he does not know The sadness buried in this tired body, like a flood that broke through a dam, quietly touched Xu Xin and Dong Chang. Seeing how lonely and sad he was, the latter frowned slightly, made up his mind, weighed the pros and cons, and gave him a general idea. "As the head of Zeng Quanxing's sect, if you cannot control your disciples from doing evil, don't blame yourself for the disaster that befell you." "Many of the victims who were killed and robbed by your followers could not find your followers to kill them for various reasons, so they took their anger out on you. They made a private agreement and one of them came forward to place an order with us, demanding your head." Dong Chang's Qi traveled along the wrist and reached before the finger bones. With a little force, it could penetrate the throat and kill Wu Gensheng. "Is this so" After learning the reason, Wu Gensheng trembled slightly, laughed uncontrollably, and sighed: "Okay, so who are they going to kill, the head of Quan Xing or Wu Gensheng?" "You are talking nonsense! You, Wu Gensheng, are the leader of Quan Xing. The leader of Quan Xing is you, Wu Gensheng. How can there be anyone else?" Xu Xin's patience was almost exhausted. He was at the age of full of vigor and impatience, and he could not stand those mysterious arguments. He immediately held a silver needle and was about to stab Wu Gensheng between the eyebrows, but was stopped by Dong Chang, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and signaled to wait. "Our employer wants us to behead the leader of Quan Xing. Do you have any last words?" Dong Chang wanted to complete the task by himself and did not ask Xu Xin to help him. He just gave a calm advice: "If there is an afterlife, let's take the right path. Maybe we can still be friends." "But today, there is really no chance. I can't go against the rules of the Tang Sect just because of my personal relationship with you." "True?" Wu Gensheng's smile gradually faded. He slowly raised his right hand, which was as thin as a piece of dry wood, held the wine bowl, and poured wine into the corners of his cracked mouth.
"real." "Say your last words." Dong Chang counted down the time in his heart, and did not forget to greet Xu Xin in advance: "You go first, I will handle this here." "it is good" Xu Xin knew that the two of them could not break out and could only achieve the best chance of survival through sacrifice, so he did not disobey. As an assassin, one must abandon emotions at critical moments and not allow for any indecision. Xu Xin had a deep understanding of this as early as the Battle of Mianshan. It is easier said than done. Thinking about my senior brother who is like a brother to me, he might die because of being the last one to leave. At some moments, he still felt lost, but he quickly suppressed the urge to spread. As long as Wu Gensheng is assassinated successfully and the mission is completed, the sacrifice of his senior brother will be meaningful. He has practiced the code of the Tang Sect Assassins with his life and has lived up to both others and himself. However, after they reached a consensus, Wu Gensheng interrupted them with his lips moving, "That's not necessary. Can't I just say hello to them?" "The friends here are all disciples of famous and upright sects. Even if they kill me, they won't do anything to you." "?!" Such words were unexpected for Xu Xin and Dong Chang. They had already observed that the young Taoist priest from the Tianshi Mansion was here, and it was impossible that all those present were monsters. However, they could not be sure whether the situation would get out of control after the assassination of Wu Gensheng, so they could only prepare for the worst. Before they could say anything, Wu Gensheng added: "By the way, you two, I just quit Quan Xing not long ago, and I'm not a demon now." "I am a casual cultivator. Of course, if you want to kill me, please do as you please. It's okay even if you give this head to two friends." "Bullshit! It's easy to change the country, but it's hard to change one's nature." Xu Xin frowned and rebuked: "A dog can't change its habit of eating shit. You are Quanxing for one day, and you will be Quanxing for the rest of your life." Wu Gensheng ignored his humiliation. His eyelids felt heavy and he dozed off again. He slowly closed his eyes and waited for death to come. "Senior Brother." Xu Xin urged in a low voice. Dong Chang remained indifferent, feeling mixed emotions. If what Wu Gensheng said was true, then since he had withdrawn from Quan Xing, it seemed that he was no longer within the scope of the mission, and the person he needed to assassinate was the next leader of Quan Xing? After only a few breaths, Dong Chang loosened his hand, and his murderous intent faded away, disappearing without a trace. "Forget it, Xiao Xu, let's go." "What?" Xu Xin was shocked and gritted his teeth. "Go? Where?" The drunken Wu Gensheng leaned forward, hugged them on both sides, and said with a smile: "Why don't you two just go with the flow and have a good drink with us for now?" "Let go, it's so dirty." "Wu Gensheng, are you crazy?"
As soon as the two finished speaking, the bonfire in front of them suddenly ignited violently. With a loud "BOOM!!!", a fiery red figure with a shoulder pole and a wine jar tied to it jumped out and jumped high, with flames still on its toes, which kept fading away. It was Feng Ping from the Huode Sect. Not long ago, he used the fire escape technique to enter the bonfire, and using it as a node, he instantly teleported to Shaoxing, a thousand miles away, and brought back two jars of the finest Nv'erhong wine. "Oh, you're really good, Fengping, I'm convinced by your method." The man with glasses, wearing gray and white overalls and a beret, had a look of admiration on his face and was generous with his praise. The man named Feng Ping, with thick eyebrows, bright eyes, and bold gestures, said in a loud voice: "Everyone, sorry for the long wait. Come on, drink as much as you can! If it's not enough, I'll get more!" Wu Gensheng stumbled to his feet, walked over, unscrewed the wine jar, took out the porcelain bowls, filled them one by one, and walked in front of Xu Xin and Dong Chang. "Now that you're here, why be so reserved? Just drink, quickly." After he finished speaking, he threw two porcelain bowls full of wine and water, which were shaking and flying towards him. Xu Xin and Dong Chang subconsciously reached out to catch them. "Come on. Do it!" Wu Gensheng was the first to raise his porcelain bowl and drank it all. He then sat on the ground. He was so drunk that his hands and feet were weak, but his consciousness was still barely clear and he smiled happily: "drink--" "Let me introduce you to these bastards that I admire." "Look, that lady in green shirt and mushroom hair is Huang Fang from Red Flower Fairy." "The fat man with a smile on his face and wearing glasses, who looks like a profiteer, is Liu Deshui from Yanwu Hall." "The girl from Miaojiang who just threatened you two is Wei Shufen." After Wu Gensheng's introduction, Xu Xin and Dong Chang got to know the origins of the group. They were unaware that during the conversation, the wine in their hands began to ripple and gradually ran out. “It’s worth it.” At midnight, Wu Gensheng was sleeping on the ground, looking at the bright moon in the night sky, and muttering: "I only wrote thirty-five letters, but I didn't expect all of you hypocritical bastards to come." At the bonfire banquet, everyone was drunk and scattered everywhere. He announced in front of everyone: "tomorrow!" "Tomorrow I will take you to an interesting place to comprehend the wonderful Dharma and opportunities!" After saying this, he curled up his body and fell asleep, regardless of the damp and cold ground. The next day. Led by Wu Gensheng, the young disciples from various sects walked along the rugged mountain path, crossing mountains and ridges, and it took them more than an hour. Xu Xin and Dong Chang were walking at the end of the team. During the walk, they noticed subtle changes in their bodies. They felt as if they were walking on flat ground and did not require much effort. Just when they were feeling puzzled, the answer came. A conversation was heard from the front. The sorcerer named Gu Jiting was explaining to everyone the composition and influence of the Qi Bureau. Xu Xin and Dong Chang seemed to understand what was said, but they followed. About half a quarter of an hour later, they arrived at the end of a rocky path. "Come with me." Wu Gensheng shouted loudly, jumped up and fell into the valley.
Everyone followed and what came into their sight was an eerily straight valley. The rock walls inside were engraved with dense rock lines. It was disorganized, but contained some subtle information. "Squeaky!!!" At this time, a large number of golden monkeys came from all directions, scratching everyone's backs, hands and feet. "Hey! Go away, little thing." "My Chi is moving?!" "This valley is helping people to practice Qi and attain enlightenment? And this method seems to still rely on the power of the three vehicles." "It is truly a work of nature, it doesn't look like it was man-made at all. Anyone who can have such ability is probably almost a god." Xu Xin stroked the rock wall and soon noticed something unusual. There are tiny stone carvings hidden above each thick line, and the two seem to be completely opposite. No, to be more precise, the formation of the latter modified the former, which led to the rather evil nature of the valley they saw now. Dong Chang naturally noticed it as well. As assassins, their observation skills were far superior to others. However, after discovering it, they did not say much and remained silent. "Has there ever been an owner here?" I don't know who asked this question in the crowd. "some." Wu Gensheng said generously: "Everyone, you just need to move forward. The Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley here and the What Is Humanity Cave in front are very safe. There are secret opportunities hidden in the cave. If you have the ability, just go and get it." "Hmm? You, a devil, are you so kind?" "Hahaha!! When have I ever lied to you? Go as you please!" Wu Gensheng did not leave any clues. He was displaced at that time and accidentally came to a valley. He meditated hard for several months before he had an epiphany. Even if these young talents have abilities, it is still unrealistic for them to gain enlightenment in a short period of time. However, the complex structure of the human cave was soon deciphered. When everyone walked to the end of the cave, they saw a square ancient pavilion built up by one gray brick after another. There are various collections scattered around the vast rocky land, including windmills, rattles, dolls, wooden boats, music boxes, etc. No one could have imagined that Wu Gensheng's collection would be so ordinary, or even worthless. Zhang Huaiyi noticed the wooden box on the left, which was leaning against several picture frames. He walked over slowly, and with curiosity, he lifted the curtain and saw lifelike foreign paintings. The girl above is surprisingly 60% similar to Wu Gensheng. The painting is clearer than the gray and white photo, and even has colors, making it look particularly realistic. Zhang Huaiyi looked into the eyes of the girl in the painting. The more he looked into those lively and clear eyes, the more uneasy he felt. There was no reason for it, especially the foreign painting of a girl standing in front of a cave, which was so weird that Zhang Huaiyi hurriedly closed the curtain and didn't want to look at it anymore. The group searched for several days, turning the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley and the What Is Humanity Cave upside down, but still could not find the so-called "opportunity"; At night, some people gave up one after another and returned to the base outside the valley, where they lit a bonfire, ate roasted game, drank fine wine, and gathered together to have a good time and chat about topics. Just when Zhang Xuan in Mo Men was wondering when the war would end, Dou Ruchang, the second in command of Secret Painting, was better informed than anyone else present, and thus brought exciting news. "It's almost there. The situation has been decided. Will it be this year or next year? It's hard to say the exact time, but the Japanese won't be able to hold out for long. Currently, many capable guys have begun to evacuate the mainland one after another." As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was delighted, toasted and drank, and then talked about their life arrangements after the war and their cultivation goals.
Some people want to get married and have children, some want to go abroad to see the world, and some want to travel around and fight demons and defend the way of Taoism. As for the goals of practice, they are also different. The wanderer Ruan Feng wants to eat well, sleep well, be free from illness and disaster, and live a long life; Ma Ben of Tiangongtang wants to found a new school and create a new method of refining weapons, which will reduce the mental effort and make the weapons stronger and more effective. Duanmu Ying of Jishidiang wants to master the art of medicine, integrate Eastern and Western medicine, and save all the people in the world who she wants to save but are still alive. Listening to those people talking and laughing, Zhang Huaiyi looked at Wu Gensheng in front of him and asked tentatively: "What about you? Wu Gensheng, after the war, where do you want to go? Or what do you want to do?" "No root?" The destitute and haggard man stood there, looking up slightly towards the sky. His disheveled hair covered his numb eyes, and a hoarse and low voice came out from his throat. "I am not Wu Gensheng." His chest rose and fell slightly, and he spoke hurriedly, as if he was making an important decision. He stared at the cold moon in the sky and murmured: "I am Feng Yao" "I want to be a human being, a man who is upright and honest to others." The low humming sound was like a wild ghost, and it was like a stone that caused a thousand waves. Everyone was surprised, with surprise written all over their faces. This was the first time they knew Wu Gensheng's real name. (End of this chapter)
