On the official road, a handsome young man wearing a blue shirt was driving a carriage. The shirt was basically the common clothes of scholars in the Ming Dynasty. The driver was Li Jie. They had left Fuzhou Prefecture for a month.
He was on his way to Zhangzhou Prefecture, but Fang Yi had to slow down because he was following Li Jie all the way. If he was alone, it would be faster to ride a horse.
While on the road, Li Jie was not idle. On the way from Fuzhou Prefecture to Quanzhou Prefecture and back here, whenever he entered the city for repairs, Li Jie would ask if there were any evil gangsters near the city. If there were, he would
Went to some bandit villages for a trial. The green forest people along the way were really frustrated and turned upside down by Li Jie.
Before the sun set, Li Jie finally drove to Longxi County. He had been driving non-stop for the past two days and needed a good repair. The weather was hot and his body was sticky. It was nothing to Li Jie, even in the wilderness.
When camping in the wild, you can also find a creek to wash yourself in. You have not experienced the pollution of industrialization and are surrounded by green mountains and green waters.
After eating at the inn, Li Jie went back to the room, changed his clothes, and went out to find out the news. Before leaving, he told Fang Yi not to go out and stay in the room. Li Jie's behavior along the way also made Fang Yi a little curious. Every time he checked in
After the inn, Li Jie went out and would not come back until the middle of the month. Thinking that Li Jie usually did not like to go to those vocal music venues, Fang Yi was puzzled as to what Li Jie was doing there.
When Li Jie was cleaning up a group of human traffickers in Anxi County, after some questioning, he learned that the mastermind behind them lived on Crouching Mountain near Longxi County. That day, the bandit leader even clamored for Li Jie to let them go, otherwise their boss would
To make him look good.
The masterminds behind the scenes are a middle-aged man and woman known as the "Tongbai Shuangqi" in the world. When Li Jie heard this name, he remembered that there seemed to be a scene in the original work, and they should be minions of the demon sect.
The world has never had a good impression of those kidnappers. The family behind every lost child has a tragic story.
On weekdays, there are occasional news about various sects recruiting disciples in the world, but I have never heard about the Demon Cult recruiting disciples. It seems that among these lost children, those with martial arts talents should have been sent to the head teacher. As for the others,
I'm afraid the end of the children will not be too good. Not to mention those who died during transportation, other children who were lucky were sold to hook-up places and could still beg for food. Those who were unlucky were beggars with broken arms and legs.
It's their future.
Li Jie galloped along the official road. After driving for a while, he saw two crooked-necked trees. There happened to be a small trail nearby. According to the locals, this road was the trail to Crouching Tiger Mountain. Li Jie took advantage of the moonlight to
Stride towards Crouching Tiger Mountain.
After a while, they arrived at Crouching Tiger Mountain and saw sheer cliffs, strange rocks and forests. The peak was about a hundred feet high and looked like a sleeping tiger. No wonder the locals called it Crouching Tiger Mountain. When Li Jie looked around, he found a looming fire.
Apart from Tongbai Shuangqi's residence, there seemed to be no one else in this wilderness, so he rushed towards the light of the fire.
Li Jie has practiced the sword technique to ward off evil spirits for many years, and now his movements are extremely fast and his movements are like ghosts, silent and silent. He takes several steps and reaches the place where the fire is looming in a short time.
As we got closer, we saw a small courtyard made of logs. There was a fence around the courtyard. There were three rooms in total. In one of the rooms, there was a little candlelight through the wooden windows. The candlelight was faintly visible, and the figures in the room were faintly visible.
Chuochuo, I saw Shadow and the two of them were probably having dinner.
For a character like Tongbai Shuangqi, Li Jie disdained a sneak attack. He walked to the courtyard gate, filled his internal energy with both feet and kicked him hard.
With a clang, the wooden courtyard door flew away. When the two people who were eating in the house heard the movement, they immediately took their weapons and rushed out of the door. They saw a man standing in the courtyard wearing a bamboo hat and holding a standard long sword.
He was a short man dressed in smart clothes. Among the people the two of them usually interacted with, there was no one dressed like this.
The single-eyed middle-aged man shouted sternly: "Who are you, and why are you intruding unreasonably?"
Li Jie saw a middle-aged man and woman in front of him. Their positions were in perfect agreement. As long as they attacked one of them, they would be within the rescue range of the other. No matter where they attacked, they would be surrounded by them.
"Remember Mahouer?"
The man frowned when he heard this. The two of them were now carrying the secret order of the cult and were heading to Guangdong and Fujian provinces to recruit talents for the cult. They also knew that the cult had a bad reputation, so they started to think of being human traffickers. Ma Houer
He is one of the leaders of the peripheral organization they developed. He does not know their true identity, but seeing that the person in front of him has come to the door, he cannot be left alone.
Then the one-eyed man winked at the woman next to him. The two had lived together for more than twenty years. Although they were not husband and wife, they were more like husband and wife. They had already connected with each other. When the woman saw this, she understood what the man meant. In an instant, each of them held an iron hand.
The two men, armed with single swords, all attacked Li Jie.
Li Jie looked surprised when he saw the two of them attacking hand in hand without saying a word. He thought that the two of them were indeed ruthless characters. They took action brazenly before the situation was known. They were worthy of being a veteran.
The two men, one on the left and the other on the right, worked together to attack key points on Li Jie's upper body. The man used a crutch to attack Li Jie's Tanzhong point, and the woman used a knife to attack his Dantian.
, before anyone arrived, the sound of wind breaking through the sky was already howling.
Li Jie raised his sword to meet him, and moved lightly. His figure was like a ghost, coming from behind. The light of his sword flashed and drew an arc to hit the iron crutch in the man's hand. Zhou Gutong only felt a powerful force coming from the tiger's mouth.
Juzhen Tieguai almost let go and shouted.
"Be careful, the idea is tricky!"
Before he could say anything, he saw Li Jie's long sword attack Wu Boying. The swords struck each other, and there was a "clang" sound. Wu Boying retreated violently, and was knocked back by the long sword. He was still in the air.
A mouthful of blood spurted out before it hit the ground. Zhou Gutong's face instantly filled with anger, the veins on his forehead popped out, and he shouted sternly.
"Thief bitch!"
Then, regardless of whether Li Jie was still at his side, he jumped up and hugged Wu Boying. When he saw Wu Boying, whose face was pale and blood was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, big tears poured down from his eyes.
Seeing Zhou Gutong's sad expression, Wu Boying reached out and gently wiped away the tears on his face, looked at Zhou Gutong with a sentimental expression, and then said weakly.
"Thief...ahem...man, it seems that today you...ahem...we are doomed. We must be a real couple in the next life, the couple that the matchmaker is marrying!"
Zhou Gutong knew that he would not be able to escape today, and he only hoped that the two of them could still be together on the road to hell. He threw away the weapon in his hand and slowly put Wu Boying down, and fell to his knees with a thud.
"I know very well that today my husband and I are bound to die. As long as you agree to my request, I will kill you without any trouble!"
Li Jie saw that although these two people belonged to the devil's path and often did bad things, their deep love as husband and wife was touching, and he spoke.
"Go ahead! As long as it's not too difficult, I will agree."
When Zhou Gutong heard this, he first bowed and paid homage, and then said: "I just hope that after our death, your Excellency will bury us together in the same place, so that we can be together on the road to Huangquan."
"Okay, I promise you."
After hearing Li Jie's answer, the two looked at each other and smiled miserably, and then they committed suicide one after another.
After the two people died, Li Jie found a vacant lot nearby, dug a pit and buried them hastily. He admired the two people's deep love and determination, but lamented that they had taken the wrong path, and hoped that they could do the same thing in their next life.
A good person will eventually encounter ghosts if he walks too much at night.
