Volume 1: A stone strikes a thousand waves, the world surrounds Li Daosheng Chapter 105: On the Self-cultivation of a Thief
When the sword blade standing on the ground reflected the smoke and dust dissipated.
The second sword platform was completely destroyed. A figure slowly stood up from the sunken rubble, while at his feet, the foreign man lay prone on the ground, his life or death unknown.
No one could see clearly how fast Li Si's Qinggong was, but it was precisely because no one could see clearly that it made people even more nervous.
No one knew how high he had flown with the giant just now. However, it was precisely because no one knew that people were more suspicious.
The wind on the top of the mountain blew the white clothes, making the figure look a little shaky.
It was at this moment that the swordsmen felt for the first time that the man standing there was the best in the world, a peerless figure in the world.
Just like Dugu Bufu, he makes people look up to him.
Normally, Li Si would never give people this kind of feeling. There's nothing he can do about it. He always looks like a rogue and doesn't have the temperament of a master at all.
On the third sword platform, the tiger girl looked at Li Si without saying a word.
She had some guesses when she was on the road, and just now, she was sure that Li Si was the one who stole the golden Buddha.
Both his movements and techniques are exactly the same as they were back then.
But she didn't say anything or do anything, she just silently put away her sword.
She was ready to let go. After all, she owed Li Si too much.
Dugu Bufu was also silent. He looked at Li Si for a while, then lowered his eyes.
The fight just now made him certain of one thing, that at least now he was no match for Li Si.
Is this the reason why he refuses to take the stage? Doesn’t want to take advantage of others’ misfortune?
Dugu Bufu closed his eyes and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He had to admit that his impression of Li Si had changed a little.
Maybe this person is actually not bad.
But what Dugu Bufu didn't know was that Li Si didn't want to go on stage because he thought he was troublesome .
I don’t know if he would want to draw his sword and kill Li Si when he finds out, but that’s a matter for the future.
"cough."
At this moment, a weak cough suddenly sounded on the sword stage. It turned out that the foreign man was still hanging on to his breath.
Indeed, Li Si did not kill him. After all, he had to take him to see Yan Tingzhi.
"Kill me with the sword..." Jiangba lay on the ground, with his eyes lowered and his mouth opening and closing, and said softly.
"You can't die now." Li Si looked at him with his eyes lowered and brushed the dust off his clothes.
"Please..." Jiangba uttered these two words as if he had used up all his strength.
Li Si looked at him in silence for a while, then pulled him up from the ground, carried him on his shoulder and said.
"As a human being, don't be too persistent."
Unfortunately, how could he be qualified to advise others like this?
Jiangba fainted, and the last bit of light in his eyes disappeared.
Li Si looked at the broken sword platform, then glanced at the people around him. The aura of a master suddenly disappeared. He scratched his hair and said embarrassedly.
"I still have some things to do, so I won't stay any longer. Goodbye, everyone."
After that, he waved to the tiger girl and said, "Let's go, cousin."
"Hey." The tiger girl responded, and without caring about the sword fight anymore, she jumped off the sword platform and trotted to catch up with Li Si.
Until Li Si walked away for a long distance, the swordsmen present had not yet reacted. Who should deal with the broken sword stand?
…
Although many things happened, the World Sword Alliance ended as scheduled.
Shu Hu Nu finished what she was supposed to do and bid farewell to Li Si three days later.
"Li Si." Before leaving, Shu Hu Nu turned around on the road and said to Li Si with a smile.
"You're a good man, thank you."
Please forgive Shu Hunu’s poor Chinese speaking, but I can’t find any other words to describe Li Si except “good man”.
Li Si was given the title of a good man for no reason and took Jiang Ba to Chang'an.
He didn't do much, just left the Jiangba with the acupuncture points sealed in front of Yan Tingzhi's hall, and left a letter.
I believe Yan Tingzhi will handle him well.
When leaving Chang'an, Li Si must have sensed something and looked at an eagle flying in the sky.
Then he disappeared onto the road.
…
In a forest outside Chang'an.
A blindfolded foreign man was catching a returning mountain eagle and tying something to its feet.
At this moment, another voice suddenly came from the bushes next to them.
"So, you followed me all this way, what on earth were you doing?"
The foreign man was startled and stood up to run away, but the next moment, a man in white appeared behind him, knocked him unconscious, and at the same time used a stone to knock down the mountain eagle that was about to fly away.
The man in white was naturally Li Si. He found that a mountain eagle had followed him for a long distance. Puzzled, he followed the eagle all the way here.
I didn't expect that someone was using a mountain eagle to monitor him. I don't know how they did it. There are really all kinds of strange methods in the world.
Picking up the mountain eagle that had fallen to the ground, Li Si took off a piece of animal skin from under its feet and spread it in his hands to take a look.
There were words from the Jin Dynasty written on the animal skin. Fortunately, Li Si had been to the Jin Dynasty and could recognize some of them.
The general meaning of the word is that Jiangba was sent to Chang'an.
It seems that the spies sent by the Jin Kingdom to the Central Plains were far more than just Shu Hunu.
In other words, when Shu Hu Nu was investigating the news in the martial arts world, she was also being monitored by people from the Jin Kingdom.
Li Si looked at the animal skin, thought about something, and then left the forest.
…
When Shu Hunu returned to the Kingdom of Jin, Shu Huheng met her one night.
After she finished telling him all the news she had received in the Central Plains, Shu Huheng waved his hand and summoned three men holding swords.
After all, Shu Hunu got too close to the people of Central Plains, so close that Shu Huheng could no longer be completely sure of her position.
For Shu Huheng, a chess piece that cannot determine its position is useless.
He would refer to the information brought by Shu Hu Nu, but he would not keep Shu Hu Nu.
In his opinion, the death of a sword slave and an enemy in exchange for some specific information about the Central Plains martial arts world was a very worthwhile thing.
Therefore, Shuhu Nu’s death was worthy.
But what Shu Huheng didn't expect was that Shu Hu Nu actually drew her sword and killed him. As a sword slave, she should not be able to resist if her master wanted to kill her.
Shu Hunu's behavior made Shu Huheng even more certain that she had lost her value.
A lot of blood was shed that night.
The tiger girl was eventually forced into a corner by a group of sword slaves, gasping for breath with wounds all over her body.
Why did she resist?
She doesn't know either.
Maybe, it was because she ate some delicious food in Tang State, maybe, it was because of the makeup Li Si put on her, or maybe, she tasted the real feeling of being alive.
In short, she doesn't want to die yet.
She also wanted to taste the Baihua Cake from Baihua Valley, grow long hair, and put on some rouge and powder in front of a bronze mirror.
I want to listen to the flute sound on the road again.
Sadly, these are probably no longer possible.
A long sword had already fallen in front of her.
"when!"
At this time, a familiar voice sounded. The tiger girl opened her eyes blankly. In front of her, the long sword was bounced away by a stone.
And on the roof of the house nearby, a man in white clothes appeared out of nowhere.
"Who are you!" The servant holding the sword looked at the man who suddenly appeared and shouted sternly.
The man in white paused and answered in a somewhat awkward Jin dialect.
"My name is Li Si, and I'm a thief."
thief?
The servant frowned and asked again.
"what are you up to?"
"Good question." The man in white smiled. Under the moonlight, he turned his head and looked at the tiger girl.
"I came here to steal. To steal, alone."
