Life is always full of choices, and many choices are like a gamble. Sometimes the bet is money, sometimes the bet is career, and sometimes the bet is life.
Jiang Yichen is not a person who likes to choose, and he has never been involved in gambling.
But he discovered that since he left Xishan Island, he was faced with various choices all the time, and then he was forced to join the gambling game, become a participant in the gambling game, and place bets.
Just like now, the eight members of the Greedy Wolf Gang did not think that they could escape from the Sword Demon's hands by working together, and they were already waiting for Xie Fei's life and death decision with a look of helplessness.
In the end, Jiang Yichen still couldn't bring himself to be cruel, so he abandoned Greed Wolf and helped everyone leave. Even though he was not familiar with them, they were already worthless to him.
But he knew that if he left alone, the sword demon Xie Fei would wipe out these eight people from this world without any mercy.
He also knew that if he left alone, he would definitely feel uneasy and unable to sleep at night.
Therefore, he can only gamble.
He placed his bet on the second option given by Xie Fei.
Of course, betting requires chips, but Jiang Yichen didn't feel that he had any chips to influence the outcome.
If you win, everyone will be happy and everyone in the Greedy Wolf Gang will leave safely.
If you fail, you will die together with everyone in Tanlang Gang.
What he was betting on was that Xie Fei had just come to the rescue, and maybe he might still have so-called value to Xie Fei.
He couldn't hear the apologies, thanks, or persuasion from everyone in the Tanlang Gang.
He could hear what Xie Fei said, "I will spare your life once or twice, and even save you once, but I also have a rule, that is, I can only do three things."
Between the Double Camelback Mountain Road.
This is the location chosen by Xie Fei.
The fallen leaves in the autumn wind are desolate. Could it be that a young and fresh life is about to pass away today?
Jiang Yichen stood three feet in front of Xie Fei.
The Greedy Wolf Gang stood around Zhai Ben.
They had nothing to do with Jiang Yichen before today. However, their lives at this moment were completely dependent on the young man's decision.
What surprised and touched them was that this young man chose to stand here for them. No matter what the outcome was, they would be grateful.
The autumn wind is rustling, the setting sun is setting, and the sword has been unsheathed.
The time between my fingers, I don’t know whether it is stopping at this moment or slowing down at this moment.
Jiang Yichen stared at Xie Fei in front of him. At this moment, he seemed to understand why the legendary sword ghost was praised for dancing with swords and making poems, as picturesque as songs.
Jiang Yichen's pupils reflected Xie Fei's every move, and the tip of the sword passed from bottom to top.
Passing through the autumn mood, through the fallen leaves, across the setting sun, it is so gentle and stretched, so poetic and picturesque, not necessarily murderous at all, but vaguely incompatible with heaven and earth.
Xie Fei's movements were so slow and gentle, but as soon as he raised his sword, the sword energy came out and flew towards Jiang Yichen.
When the flowers fade and the flowers fly all over the sky, who will pity them when the red color disappears and the fragrance disappears?
The soft hairspring ties the floating spring pavilion, and the fallen catkins lightly touch the embroidered curtains.
Flower Burial Sword Technique!
Those who practice swordsmanship will have no regrets if they can witness this poetic and exquisite swordsmanship in their lifetime.
A soft breeze blew by.
A few drops of cherry red fell down.
A few fluttering black hairs.
"Let's go." Xie Fei said.
"Thank you, sir, for sparing your life, and thank you, young hero, for saving your life." Everyone in the Tanlang Gang fell to the ground, knelt down and knelt down in thanks.
"If you don't leave now, don't let me change my mind." Xie Fei said softly, with a hint of urging.
"Wait a minute." Jiang Yichen said to everyone in the Tanlang Gang.
"What other orders do you have, young hero?" Tanlang Gang members came forward and said respectfully.
"Take care of these for yourselves. It's better not to get involved in the affairs of the world." As he spoke, Jiang Yichen took out the wad of banknotes from his arms and stuffed them into the hands of a middle-aged man from the Tanlang Gang who was supporting Zhai Ben. .
"This..." The middle-aged man looked at Zhai Ben at a loss.
The sound of thumping to the ground sounded one after another.
It was the sound of everyone from Tanlang Gang kneeling down and kowtowing again, and the leader was none other than Zhai Ben.
"Go." Jiang Yichen took the lead and left everyone.
After everyone from Tanlang Gang left.
"You stay here to ask why I spared your life?" Xie Fei asked with a smile.
"Why?" Jiang Yichen wiped away a trace of blood on his cheek, puzzled.
"This is the second time, it can only happen three times." Xie Fei said.
"The second time?" Jiang Yichen muttered silently. Only he could hear the voice, and then he turned and left.
He originally wanted to get some information from Xie Fei, but he knew that if he asked again, he would become a dead body without any accident.
"Come out." Xie Fei said.
Jiang Yichen and the Tanlang Gang have left, and there is no one else on the desolate mountain road.
"Hey, I was discovered by the boss after all." The first person to fall from the dense branches was a young man dressed as a beggar.
"Of course, who is the boss? How can we fool his ears and eyes by making little noises?" As he scrambled out of the grass, he did not forget that the person flattering Xie Fei was a man with long hair.
"Hello, boss." A big man in cloth armor jumped out from the grass and greeted Xie Fei.
If Jiang Yichen were here, he would definitely recognize them. These three people are Egg, Lan Sheng, and Shu Tong.
It turns out that the boss of the three of them is actually the sword demon Xie Fei.
"Why did the boss let this kid go?" Egg asked.
"Oh, you are here to guard, don't you hope that I will spare his life? What, could it be that this young man fed you today?" Xie Fei smiled.
"Haha, the boss is wise, the boss is wise." Lan Sheng said.
"You must have led him to Yelangyuan, right?" Xie Fei glanced sideways at Lan Sheng.
"Haha, the boss is wise, the boss is wise." Lan Sheng said without changing his expression.
"This young man is very cautious, but unexpectedly he is also quite courageous. If he had hesitated, struggled or escaped when I drew my sword just now, he would have been lying in a pool of blood right now." Xie Fei said appreciatively.
"Yes, this young man is not bad." Lan Sheng answered.
"Hey, I treated you to a nice meal, right? Where is he from?" Xie Feixiao asked.
"I haven't figured it out yet. I just came to Xijiang County from Wudang territory. This must be true." Lan Sheng replied.
"From Tai Chi Village?" Xie Fei speculated.
"I don't think it's possible. The extremely cold aura that comes out of his internal energy seems to be a more extreme side." Lan Sheng shook his head and said.
"Well, his name?" Xie Fei asked again.
"Jiang Xi." Shu Tong finally had a chance to show off.
Snapped!
Shu Tong's head immediately exploded. The one who did it was Lan Sheng. He was angry but dared not speak. His watery eyes were pitiful and he looked at the eggs.
"Little Shutong, please recite the word "Jiangxi" backwards." Egg walked closer and stood on tiptoes to caress Shutong's forehead.
"Jiangxi, Xijiang." Shu Tong read.
"Well, yes, it's Xijiang. This guy used a pseudonym." Egg explained.
"Oh." Shu Tong stroked his head and lowered his head.
Seeing this little farce, Xie Fei couldn't help but chuckle. Only being with these brothers could make him so relaxed. "It's true that this kid's surname is Jiang. What impression do you have of this guy?"
"I've thought about it before. There doesn't seem to be anyone named Jiang in the past ten years or so." Lan Sheng said, holding his chin.
"Perhaps he is a kid from some sect or force who has gained experience." Egg said.
"Daoyi Alliance." Xie Fei seemed to have come to a conclusion.
"Huh? Daoyi Alliance?" Lan Sheng was puzzled.
"It's just my guess. This guy deserves attention. Egg, please keep a close eye on him." Xie Fei said.
"Oh, okay, boss, don't worry, with me taking action, nothing will go wrong." Dandan said seriously.
Suddenly, there was a snap sound, and for some unknown reason, an old tree not far away exploded and scattered as if struck by lightning.
Looking in that direction, the tree was directly behind where Jiang Yichen was standing just now, about three feet away.
…
In a guest room of Yanhui Inn, Jianglin Town, Xijiang County.
Jiang Yichen was lying on the bed, legs crossed, as if thinking about something.
In the two days after returning from the wild wolf's place, Jiang Yichen did not slack off at all. He still inquired about Wuxiangmen, Hongque and the people in Taiji Village. He also went to Hejiagu's place, but still found nothing.
.
Until this morning, he met a group of people.
A group of people who are all women.
Because they are all female, they easily attract the attention of people from all walks of life.
It also attracted Jiang Yichen's attention.
The women all wore plain colored robes, with their hair tied in a bun, and were either equipped with single swords, double swords, or Emei thorns.
Jiang Yichen also saw the origins of these women at a glance.
Emei Sect.
Mount Emei is far away from Xijiang County, so seeing more than a dozen heroines from the Emei sect in Jianglin Town is a strange sight.
I don’t know what it is about, but I saw that the female disciple from Emei was busy with work and was walking in a hurry.
Jiang Yichen happened to pass by them and vaguely heard the words exchanged between them.
