Achieve Rivers and Mountains - C203

Li Fan stood on top of a pile of ruins. His previous bustling and arrogance had finally turned into scorched earth. The muffled thunder above his head was still ringing, “The sunny days have passed.” He read it silently. He should have been gloating over the destruction of the Dragon Sword Villa, but now, he felt even more grief and resentment than he did for Dan Rong Ruoyun. “You’re here.” he asked, listening to the footsteps behind him.

“Since you know, why ask?”

“Where are you guys staying?”

“Brothers in the martial world are people who have no family or roots. As long as they have a breath of air or a drop of water, they can live on anywhere.”

“If you want to rebuild the Dragon Sword Villa, Li Fan is willing to work for you.”

“The Dragon Sword Villa is only a place to hide from the world that I’ve given myself. Whether or not there are other brothers here who will do the same for the heavens.”

“You’re right, my father did not make a mistake, you are more open-minded than me. “Perhaps, it is indeed more suitable for this position than I am.” “Li Fan turned around, “But what are you referring to? To rob the rich and help the poor? ” As Li Fan spoke, he laughed and pointed to the other party, “Are all rich people bad people? You people are acting in the name of justice, but in the name of robbery. Perhaps, you will do better than my father, and you will also do better than my father. You will unite the scattered underworld paths, and you will establish order for those who do not have any rules. The scale of your alliance is getting bigger and bigger, and you’re collecting more and more money. Hm? For what? ”

“Because there are more and more corrupt officials, and more and more rich and heartless people.”

“Wrong!” Li Fan scolded him flatly, his heart filled with grief, “Greedy officials? Looking around the world, there were no officials but greed! For the rich and the heartless? How could he get rich without some special methods? Is that Sir Qin of yours clean? Can his salary afford the splendor with which he spends his money like flowing water? Alright, maybe you want to say that the dog-emperor’s money is not greedy or greedy. You are wrong. The emperor’s money, the officials’ money, all come from the people. He, Qin Xiao, has stolen a hundred taels of silver from others, but he only owes that person a hundred taels. He is greedy for the country’s one tael of silver, but he owes a hundred taels to everyone in the world! ” After Li Fan finished speaking, he looked at Dan Rong Ruo and continued: “Then what about you, the manor lord? You dare to call yourself a benevolent person? [Do you dare to say that every single soul under your spear is unforgivable and must be killed?] In the name of the rich and the poor, you have summoned these fugitives to your house for the purpose of robbing and robbing, and you are not really any different from a corrupt official. ”

“I know.”

Li Fan had thought that he would refute him, or perhaps he would have a fight with him based on his temper. He hadn’t thought that the only words that came out of his mouth were these three words, so he didn’t know how to respond.

“I didn’t expect you to be Master’s son!” He knew that his Master had a son outside, but he had never brought him to anyone. Other than the Deputy Sect Master from back then, no one had seen him before.

“Your father and my brothers and I never had such lofty thoughts from the beginning. “Everyone was forced into a corner, and I had a clear view of the situation as they gathered together to earn a living.” “It’s just a slogan for the brothers to listen to, an excuse for them to feel at ease.” Li Fan had never thought that he would say such things about himself. He had always been unable to understand his father, and even more so looked down on his father’s disciple who thought he was more outstanding than him. “If Dan Rong Chen was trying to defend himself, he would still have a lot to say. However, since he admitted it so naturally, he was unable to say anything.” The world was hard to deal with. It was hard for brothers to live a life. They would lick blood and beg for food. I — I’ve had a clear conscience all these years. The things you said, like me in the wilderness, like a small fry in the court, no one can solve. I also hope that one day, my brothers and I will have a meal, and not have to do what you think is a house robbery. But now, no matter how much you look down on me, I still have to do it. Not only do I have to do it, I will do my best. I, as a vulgar person, do not understand the great principles of your governing the world. I also want to know what you guys are doing. How can you change the flaws that you speak of? And your so-called righteousness is to kidnap an innocent princess? ”

Li Fan hesitated for a moment before saying, “This matter is indeed not considered fair and square, but it is not considered a small matter, nor is it inappropriate.”

“Do you want to say that the achievements of one general are like the bones of a thousand dead? Your great cause is to sacrifice others to make you? Did you ask that innocent princess and those you sacrificed were willing? ”

This matter caused Li Fan to feel rather guilty, but he didn’t want to give in in front of her. He only said: “I can only blame her for giving birth to the wrong royal family.”

Dan Rong Xiao chuckled dryly, as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world, “Which one of the people in the world didn’t make a mistake? The poor blamed him for having been born in a poor family, and the royal family blamed him for having been born in a poor family. What about me? Do you blame me for being born in this dark world? ”

“Is this the excuse for you to become bandits?”

“I am a bandit who stole money, are you not a bandit who stole the world? The hook thief was executed, and the thief was a marquis. We are all the same kind of people, why do you have to raise yourself up so high? ”

“Shouldn’t this world overthrow him? Have you never thought of giving the heavens and earth a clear world for the common people? ” Li Fan finally became anxious. His usual calm demeanor was gone. He didn’t know whether he was disappointed or not in front of this person.

“I don’t dare to think, I don’t know if what I obtained after leading these brothers to their deaths was what they wanted.”

“What kind of hero are you to be, to look at everything from the bottom of your heart and live a life without even knowing what you are capable of?” “Li Fan pointed his blade at him.” You are just like my father, always so selfish! Just think of yourself. ”

“If you had said these words to me twenty years ago, I would have definitely been the first to respond. But now, I am not shouldering a single person, but the entire Green Forest. I would not have used so many lives to exchange for some unknown future. Your father — he was the most selfless of men. He protected everyone he could protect. Who do you think you are? What right do you have to question him? ” The tip of his spear was drawn by Dan Rong’s blade, so he turned around and said sternly: “What, you still want to fight me? Since you are Master’s orphan, I will not fight with you anymore. You better know yourself. ”

“You are my father’s disciple, so I won’t hurt you. I don’t want to waste words with a stubborn person like you. I only want to ask you this, if Qin Xiaoliu is willing to join our great plan, what about you? ”

“Do you think I would hand over the lives of all my brothers for a woman? “Don’t tell me you think too highly of me!” After he finished speaking, he heaved a sigh of relief. For the sake of Qin Xiao, he could take his life, but he definitely couldn’t give up on the alliance for her. “Even though he had allied himself with Shi Heilong in order to help her with this case, he had not sacrificed any of his own interests.” There are some things that are not right now. If there are any unforeseen events in the future, no one can tell you where I will go and where I will not need to report to you. But right now, my Dragon Sword Villa still needs to take revenge. I have never been a saint! ”

“I’m very sorry about this as well.” This was the matter that Li Fan felt the most guilty about. Although he looked down on the foundation that Li Jinhan had left behind, he had long since treated his father’s man as his own. You are not a saint if you are so stubborn, but you are still a hero. My father’s subordinates are also my family, so the matters of the Dragon Sword Villa are my matters. You, don’t reject me. ”

“Let’s talk about this later.” His ears twitched as he raised his spear. “Let’s fight first.”
