Volume 17: The Sentimental Swordsman and the Ruthless Sword (Part 2)
I should have fought you fairly!
Chapter 376: Money That Costs Life
Autumn.
cloudy day.
It was still winter when Su Weiyun went into seclusion. Nearly two years had passed in the blink of an eye, and today was the autumn of the third year.
He was obsessed with practicing and contemplating in the Bodhidharma Cave, not counting the years. But after he came out of seclusion, he suddenly remembered that he and Li Xunhuan had a "three-year agreement".
Su Weiyun walked aimlessly on the street, muttering, "You don't have to worry about other orders, but this one must be completed."
After completing this order, he will know what the "jianghu order" is that changed his life and made him wander the world.
What kind of secrets are contained in it that made Jianghu Su choose him to enter the Jianghu?
"Third on the Weapon List... With my current strength, I must be in the top three. However, if we really want to decide the winner, I'm afraid we'll have to go through a lot of great dangers and difficulties."
Although Li Xunhuan 's Xiao Li Flying Dagger is only ranked third, but "Xiao Li Flying Dagger never misses its target", that kind of flying dagger is no longer a simple martial art.
Instead, it represents a spirit and a kind of justice. As long as the spirit of justice remains in people's hearts, Xiao Li Feidao will not be defeated!
This is not a martial arts realm, but a spirit of the Tao. It is very obscure and difficult to explain, making it almost impossible to understand.
However, Su Weiyun practiced hard in the Bodhidharma Cave for a long time and had vaguely figured out some tricks.
In the original plot, even though Shangguan Jinhong killed the number one ranked "Old Man Tianji", he still died at the hands of "Xiao Li Flying Dagger" in the end.
Because once Xiao Li's Flying Dagger is launched, it will never fail. No matter if you have the Green Demon Hands, the Dragon and Phoenix Rings, the Songyang Iron Sword, or the Heavenly Secret Stick, you cannot escape this knife.
——Is there any way to deal with this knife?
have.
Su Weiyun has already thought of one.
——As long as you kill Li Xunhuan before he draws his sword, then Xiao Li's Flying Dagger will not be able to strike and will not be able to take anyone's life.
After the battle with Shangguan Jinhong, Li Xunhuan said: "Shangguan Jinhong had many opportunities to kill him, but he deliberately let them go because he wanted to see if he could dodge the flying dagger of Xiao Li, which never missed its target."
In the end, Shangguan Jinhong couldn't escape.
The place where they fought the final battle was in Shangguan Jinhong's secret room.
The secret room was simply furnished and small, and it was the place Shangguan Jinhong was most familiar with. Naturally, Li Xunhuan's movements did not change much, which gave Shangguan Jinhong the opportunity to take his life.
But if the decisive battle took place at another place, Li Xunhuan himself was also a top master. In a normal duel, it would be almost impossible to kill him before he could even move his sword.
Besides, Su Weiyun had never thought of killing Li Xunhuan.
In his opinion, although Li Xunhuan and Ah Fei were both trapped in love, they were both very lovely people after all; if everyone was like Shangguan Jinhong, only caring about interests and cold-blooded, then the world would be too ugly and too boring.
"People can't just live for profit. Each of us should live a more interesting life."
This sentence was said by Su Weiyun.
…
Interesting people often encounter many interesting things.
Just as Su Weiyun passed Xingyun Manor and arrived at a tavern, he saw something very interesting.
There was a group of people standing in a row, both men and women, old and young, wearing various weapons. Judging from their clothes, they were probably heroes in the martial arts world.
This wasn't meant to be fun.
What’s interesting is that these martial arts heroes just stood there stupidly, not moving at all, not even daring to breathe.
Su Weiyun walked closer, got in front of the crowd, looked around, and the eyes of those he looked at followed him around with a begging look on their faces, but they didn't dare to move at all.
"That's weird. Could it be that all of you have had your acupuncture points pressed? But how could thirty or forty of you stand in a neat row and wait for someone to press your acupuncture points?"
Su Weiyun looked over and saw that the people had lined up almost to the end of the alley, and no one was moving.
"It's not thirty or forty people, it's forty-nine people."
Suddenly, a cold voice came from the side, with a murderous tone.
Su Weiyun smiled and said, "Forty-nine people? You are really interesting. Did you count them one by one?"
The person who spoke first was a young man in an apricot-yellow gown. He had a handsome face, a straight nose, and a graceful demeanor, but his eyes were a little long.
The young man in the apricot-yellow shirt replied, "Yes, I have counted them."
When Su Weiyun looked at him, he saw several people standing next to him. These people looked strange, but they all had one common feature.
——They were all wearing the same color yellow clothes.
The young man in the yellow shirt said again: "If you have nothing else to do, you should leave."
Su Weiyun looked around the hotel and smiled, "It's a pity that I still want to have a few drinks."
The young man in the yellow shirt said, "If you want to drink, you have to pay first!"
Su Weiyun casually took out a piece of silver from his arms and said, "Of course I have it."
The young man in the yellow shirt said, "It's not your money I want!"
Su Weiyun asked: "What kind of money is that?"
"Look at the tops of their heads!"
Su Weiyun looked back and saw that all of the forty-nine people had a copper coin placed on their heads without exception.
The copper coin was placed right in the center of their heads and might fall if they were not careful.
The young man in the yellow shirt asked Su Weiyun: "Do you have this kind of money?"
"No."
The young man in the yellow shirt smiled strangely, put his right hand into his arms, and said, "I'll give it to you."
A copper coin suddenly shot out from his hand, spun in the air, and landed in front of Su Weiyun.
Su Weiyun could have caught it by just stretching out his hand, but he didn't.
The coin finally fell to the ground.
bite!
This small sound seemed to have a kind of magic, affecting everyone's breathing.
It was a long alley, and it was very quiet to begin with. However, when the coin fell to the ground, not even the sound of breathing could be heard.
The forty-nine people held their breath and watched intently.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man with only one ear and one blind eye spoke up beside the young man in the yellow shirt: "You carry a sword, so you must be a man of the world."
Su Weiyun said: "Who among all living beings is not a Jianghu person?"
The man exhaled and said, "It would be easy if he was a gangster."
The young man in the yellow shirt also said, "We are from the underworld, so we should follow the rules of the underworld. If you let this copper coin fall to the ground, your head will also fall to the ground!"
Suddenly an autumn wind blew through the alley, blowing on people's bodies, bringing a very cold feeling.
No wonder the forty-nine people stood there obediently; it turned out they were just afraid that the copper coins above their heads would accidentally fall down.
Su Weiyun didn't seem to notice the change in atmosphere, and continued, "When did this kind of rule arise in the martial arts world?"
The young man in the yellow shirt said calmly, "It already existed two years ago. Don't you know?"
Su Weiyun asked, "Is this a rule agreed upon by all the heroes in the martial arts world?"
The young man in the yellow shirt said, "Although not really, it's almost the same."
"Because this is the rule of the Money Gang!"
