There’s No Such Thing as Love in a Swordsman’s Heart - Chapter 64
Sheng Hechen was very angry, but he could only suppress the anger in his heart, and accepted his order to take the reins from Li Hanshan.
What else can he do?
Jiang Su is right here, he can’t go back on his word in front of Jiang Su, and quarrel with that stinky brat regardless of face, that would damage his image as the leader of the martial arts too much.
He could only smile generously, and then gritted his teeth and threw a murderous look at Li Hanshan, only to find that Li Hanshan had never looked at him.
Li Hanshan just grabbed Jiang Su’s arm, and said to Jiang Su seriously: “I’m a little hungry.”
He easily pulled Jiang Su into the lobby of the inn, ordered two of Jiang Su’s favorite dishes, and then naturally talked about his recent insights on swordsmanship.
When Sheng Hechen drove into the backyard and hurried back here, the two of them were chatting excitedly. Sheng Hechen sat down hurriedly, wanting to interject a few words, but suddenly realized…he couldn’t intervene at all.
He is good at martial arts, but the things Jiang Su and Li Hanshan discussed have exceeded the level where he can interject and express his opinions. If he opens his mouth, it will be like a team with an axe.
He could only sit gloomily aside, hoping that the two of them could talk about some normal topics.
But when Jiang Su and Li Hanshan talked about getting up, he got up straight away, wanting to find an open place and ask Li Hanshan to make gestures.
Sheng Hechen became energetic immediately.
He knew that Li Hanshan was good at martial arts, and he was a rare master. He had seen him a few times during the martial arts conference that day, and he was able to defeat Fang Yuanluo within a few strokes.
But his martial arts is not weak, and he has a lot more experience than Li Hanshan. If it is just a competition, not a life-and-death struggle, he thinks he still has a chance to win.
After all, there are so many rules and regulations in martial arts competitions, you can’t use deadly hands, many exercises are unusable, and Li Hanshan is not familiar with them, Sheng Hechen always feels that he has great hope.
If Li Hanshan can be defeated, wouldn’t it be the same as gaining face in front of Jiang Su?
Sheng Hechen was eager to try.
After they finished their meal, they borrowed the backyard of the inn with the proprietress for a while, intending to compete here. Sheng Hechen stood aside, watching Zhou Zhou’s excitement, he stroked the scabbard, and waited for Jiang Su and Li Hanshan to finish their deliberation. , He Fang stepped forward and said to Li Hanshan: “Brother Mu, at the martial arts meeting that day, Sheng saw that you defeated the deputy leader Fang with a move, so he always wanted to compete with you.”
Li Hanshan was taken aback, he didn’t expect Sheng Hechen to make such a suggestion, so he had to look back at Jiang Su, seeing Jiang Su nodded to him, and then nodded in agreement.
Jiang Su was very moved.
As the leader of the martial arts alliance, Sheng Hechen has never honed his own martial arts, so although his martial arts ranking is at the forefront of the world, he has always been at the same level, which is very embarrassing.
Now that he is finally willing to find someone to compete with and hone his own martial arts, this martial arts alliance can finally be saved.
Thinking of this, Jiang Su lowered his voice, and told Li Hanshan: “His martial arts are not as good as yours. Since you want to improve now, you can give him some tricks, and don’t beat him in one fell swoop.”
Li Hanshan: “…”
Li Hanshan didn’t understand.
As the young master of the Demon Sect, why did he feed the martial arts leader and urge him to improve his martial arts.
But this is Jiang Su’s order. If Jiang Su wants to do this, hey, hey, it doesn’t make any difference.
It is impossible for a person with poor martial arts to become a peerless master overnight. Even if he really taught Sheng Hechen a few tricks, it would not affect anything.
Li Hanshan stepped forward with his sword in hand, reached the center of the field, and only then saluted Sheng Hechen, saying: “Please teach me.”
Sheng Hechen nodded with a smile and replied: “Brother Mu, you and I have a competition, just click as soon as you can.”
Li Hanshan: “…Oh.”
After saying this, Sheng Hechen drew his sword out of its sheath, and wanted to compete with Li Hanshan.
Even though Li Hanshan was just giving moves, Sheng Hechen was still at a disadvantage when he started. He was a little surprised, tried a few moves, and felt that the martial arts skills of the person in front of him were probably far beyond his imagination.
He wanted to try out the depth of Li Hanshan’s martial arts, and he didn’t want to lose face in front of Jiang Su. With his backhand, he stood the long knife horizontally. On the sword, he was shocked to take a step back, and the tiger’s mouth was throbbing with pain.
Li Hanshan looked at Sheng Hechen, and understood one thing in his heart.
He was feeding just now, but Sheng Hechen didn’t exert his full strength.
At this point, Li Hanshan held his breath and concentrated his mind, and he no longer had the thought of agreeing to Jiang Su to feed Sheng Hechen. The two swords met again, and their bodies and movements were much faster than before. Using real means, Sheng Hechen was immediately at a disadvantage, and it won’t be long before he was defeated.
Li Hanshan remembered to stop at the end, put his sword back into its sheath, took a few steps back, and saluted Sheng Hechen with clasped fists, but Sheng Hechen looked at him with a frown, as if he hadn’t expected his martial arts to be so high. After a while, he returned the salute, and behind him Putting on a smile again, he said, “Mu Shaoxia is so young, but his martial arts are so high, it’s really amazing.”
Li Hanshan: “…”
Li Hanshan didn’t know how to respond, he could only turn his head to look at Jiang Su, waiting for Jiang Su to respond for him.
Jiang Su frowned, feeling that Sheng Hechen’s martial arts had improved too fast.
It’s just that he thought that the last time he competed with Sheng Hechen was two years ago, so it’s not impossible for his martial arts to have improved so much within two years.
Li Hanshan looked at him, Jiang Su couldn’t help but sighed, and said: “Brother Sheng, your progress in martial arts is too fast.”
Hearing Jiang Su praise him, Sheng Hechen’s displeasure at losing to Li Hanshan immediately improved, and he wanted to humble himself, saying, “Su’er, don’t praise me indiscriminately.”
Jiang Su replied: “I’m telling the truth.”
Sheng Hechen was in a better mood. At this moment, he still didn’t forget to look at Li Hanshan triumphantly.
What’s the use of winning? It’s not without Jiang Su’s praise.
To please a beauty, it’s not just a matter of winning, he has to pay attention to strategy.
Oh, young man, you are still too naive.
But Li Hanshan stood aside, hearing Jiang Su praise Sheng Hechen so much, he couldn’t help frowning, looking away, a little embarrassed.
I don’t want Jiang Su to notice such a small move.
Seeing Sheng Hechen with a smile on his face, he said to Jiang Su: “Su’er, you and I haven’t competed for many years, today is not as good as—”
“It’s boring.” Jiang Su said, “You and I know very well that you can’t beat me.”
Sheng Hechen: “Uh…”
“Brother Sheng, you have indeed made rapid progress, but you shouldn’t be complacent about it.” Jiang Su said, “Don’t forget, you are almost thirty.”
Sheng Hechen: “…”
Jiang Su felt that he was very euphemistic: “I’m getting old, if I don’t work hard, it may be too late.”
Sheng Hechen: “I haven’t…”
“There are talented people from generation to generation, and you can’t lose to young people.” Jiang Su sighed, “You should work harder.”
Sheng Hechen: “…”
Jiang Su’s joy when he praised him just now seems to have disappeared.
After saying these words, Jiang Su turned around and patted Li Hanshan on the shoulder, and said to Li Hanshan in a low voice: “I just let you do it, it would be too embarrassing for you to let him lose.”
Li Hanshan: “…huh.”
“Don’t be unconvinced.” Jiang Su frowned and said, “The martial arts competition is not just about winning or losing. You already know that he is not as good as you, but you still try your best. If you win like this, what’s the point?”
Li Hanshan couldn’t help but said, “You don’t just care about winning or losing.”
Jiang Su paused for a moment and remained silent for a moment, but he couldn’t help but feel… well, what Li Hanshan said was indeed very reasonable.
For things like fighting, no matter what the disparity in his strength, win first and then talk about other things!
The three of them had finished their chat and were about to go back to the inn to rest, only to realize that Zhou Zhou, who was watching the battle, was motionless, his eyes wide open, as if he saw a **** reincarnated, and his eyes were full of admiration and reverence when he looked at the three of them. .
“Is this a martial arts master?” Zhou Zhou muttered in a low voice, with yearning on his face, “It’s too strong, and I want to become a martial arts master too.”
After finishing speaking, he turned and looked at Li Hanshan again.
“Young man.” Zhou Zhou said sincerely, “From today onwards, you are also the object of my admiration!”
Li Hanshan: “…”
…
Sheng Hechen wrote a letter to Bai Yusheng, asking him to invite Fu Wenxiao and the master of poisonous art to come over immediately, and Bai Yusheng prepared a fast horse for a few people, and he kept riding fast all the way, or in a few days, Everyone has arrived here smoothly.
It’s just that Jiang Su didn’t expect that besides Fu Wenxiao and Hua Shiqing who he wanted to see, Bai Yusheng and Lu Jiu would also follow.
He originally thought that if Fu Wenxiao was coming, Fang Yuanluo would also come along with him. Vice-Clan Leader Fang is a powerful assistant with martial arts skills. It is definitely a great thing to have him with him, but Lu Jiu… Lu Jiuke After stealing the key that the Wulin League wanted, Sheng Hechen was here, and he dared to follow.
Jiang Su was quite puzzled, but Hua Shiqing took the initiative to tell him, “I asked Lu Jiu to help.”
Fu Wenxiao also said: “If someone is really using Gu, Lu Jiu is here, and saving people may be easier.”
Jiang Su frowned, and was about to speak when Lu Jiu hastily interrupted him, whispering, “You think I want to come here.”
If Bai Yusheng hadn’t given too much, he wouldn’t be willing to take risks in this wretched place.
Jiang Su couldn’t help looking at Bai Yusheng again, and asked, “Why is Young Master Bai here again?”
Bai Yusheng replied: “I heard that Leader Sheng is here, so I wanted to bring this stinky thief here to apologize to Leader Sheng.”
After all, the Bai family promised to give the key to the Wulin League, but it was stolen from the Bai family. He should apologize to Sheng Hechen face to face.
Sheng Hechen seemed extremely magnanimous, he laughed, waved his hands and said: “It’s okay, as the saying goes, if you don’t fight, you don’t know each other, it’s not a big deal at all.”
Lu Jiu was pressed on the head by Bai Yusheng, and he was unwilling to apologize to Sheng Hechen.
After all, he felt that he was not at fault for this matter. If Hua Shiqing hadn’t manipulated him with love gu, even if he was killed, he wouldn’t be able to steal what the Wulin League wanted.
Hua Shiqing was a little nervous, and was about to apologize to Sheng Hechen together, but Fu Wenxiao asked Jiang Su before him: “Jiang Shaoxia, you have already given the key to Leader Sheng.”
At this moment, Jiang Su remembered the first key that was in his custody.
At the beginning, he was worried that Fu Wenxiao and Fang Yuanluo’s martial arts would not be enough to bring this back to the Martial Arts League safely, but now that Sheng Hechen is here, he can directly hand over the key to Sheng Hechen.
But Jiang Su was still a little worried.
He is worried.
Sheng Hechen’s martial arts were indeed better than Fang Yuanluo’s, but no matter what, they couldn’t compare to him.
He was most at ease when the key was still in his hands.
Fortunately, Sheng Hechen didn’t bother with him, it seemed that he didn’t care where the key was placed, now that he was worried about the mountain temple, he just asked Hua Shiqing what they should do next.
Hua Shiqing already knew about the situation in Sheng Hechen’s letter to Bai Yusheng, and he did know that there is such a token, and the person who holds it can not be invaded by the Gu poison technique. He is self-taught, maybe he can’t compare with the people in that mountain temple, if they face each other face to face, they might suffer a disadvantage.
In his opinion, it is best for them to sneak into the mountain temple quietly and get the token first.
“That thing should be a bead, the size of a child’s fist. In the middle of the night, it can glow like a luminous pearl and turn around to illuminate people.” Hua Shiqing said, “I have never seen it before, and I can only roughly describe its appearance. How, you still need to find it.”
Xu Qingyan fell into the hands of the people in the mountain temple, so the Miao Jiang keepsake would naturally be searched by them, so it would be extremely difficult to steal this thing, if it is not kept, it will be confused by Gu insects, life.
But this matter was obviously not a difficult situation for Lu Jiu.
If he wants all the treasures in this world, he can steal them. Jiang Su finally knows why Hua Shiqing asked Lu Jiu to come here to help. He and Li Hanshan are very good at martial arts, but when it comes to stealing things …they’re not good at it.
In the past few days, although Jiang Su did not dare to enter the mountain temple, he and Li Hanshan have walked around the mountain temple cautiously. After getting a general idea of the terrain around the mountain temple, he will go all the way together and talk about it. Lu Jiu went to the temple to steal, and if he was in danger, he ran outside, and they responded directly outside.
Jiang Su and Lu Jiu were talking, took a careful look around, pulled Li Hanshan’s sleeve, asked him to speak aside, and walked away a little distance, and he asked Li Hanshan when he was sure that those people could not hear him. , said: “Young master, how are you and Jiang Shaoxia… how are you these days?”
Li Hanshan: “… not very good.”
It’s okay if you don’t mention it, but when Hua Shiqing mentioned it, Li Hanshan couldn’t help feeling a little depressed.
He has already expressed his heart to Jiang Su, but Jiang Su has not responded at all until now, as if he still treats him as a friend, and he said that he can wait, it has been a long time… He still feels a little uncomfortable in his heart.
When Hua Shiqing saw his expression like this, he roughly understood it in his heart, and couldn’t help sighing, saying: “It is indeed difficult for someone like Jiang Shaoxia to enlighten him.”
Li Hanshan nodded.
But Hua Shiqing felt that they couldn’t give up, and Jiang Su didn’t feel disgusted, so they naturally still had a chance.
Hua Shiqing: “Perhaps some stimulation is needed, but this stimulation… may be difficult.”
Hua Shiqing touched his chin, lost in thought.
The best stimulus is naturally the difference between life and death. When in danger, it is easiest to think about these things. With the martial arts of Jiang Su and the young master, it is already difficult to be in danger. He can’t think of such a thing. As for the solution, it took Shiqing to think for a moment, and he could only look up at Li Hanshan again, and asked, “Young Master, does that Master Sheng also have a good impression of Jiang Shaoxia?”
He looked at Sheng Hechen in the wrong way, but Li Hanshan nodded immediately when he asked such a question, obviously he had been troubled by his love rival for a long time, and besides being jealous, he couldn’t think of any other way to deal with it.
Hua Shiqing finally found the direction of teaching.
He listened to Li Hanshan finish everything that happened in the past few days, and then seriously said to Li Hanshan: “Young master, if you meet a rival in love, you should not be strong.”
Li Hanshan was puzzled.
“If he argues with you, you should show weakness.” Hua Shiqing said, “The more unreasonable he is, the more you should be sensible. If he is courteous, you should go with him. If Jiang Shaoxia looks at you, you Then show your grievance to others carefully, this is the most distressing.”
Li Hanshan was startled, and was about to ask in detail, but Fu Wenxiao and Fang Yuanluo also came over, obviously very curious about the conversation between the two of them.
Fu Wenxiao happened to hear Hua Shiqing say this, and he seemed to agree with it, saying: “Brother Jiang is soft and not hard. If you are wronged, he will most likely favor you.”
Li Hanshan: “…”
Although Fang Yuanluo didn’t understand what would happen to Jiang Su, he thought about it for a moment, wishing he could nod his head immediately, and said, “If it were me, I would definitely prefer the wronged person!”
Li Hanshan: “…Is that so?”
Hua Shiqing strikes while the iron is hot: “Besides, since Jiang Shaoxia doesn’t want to directly accept the relationship with you, then don’t mention this matter in the future.”
Fu Wenxiao: “You are not allowed to mention it, but you are not allowed to say it out of your mouth. In terms of behavior, you always tell him that you still like him. You keep him in your heart, and you can always remember his every move. , notice it immediately.”
Li Hanshan: “Well…”
Hua Shiqing nodded appreciatively: “Master Fu is right, young master, what you have to do right now is to be by his side, not fighting or grabbing, but expressing your love for him all the time.”
Li Hanshan: “…it’s a bit difficult.”
“It’s not difficult.” Fu Wenxiao made the final conclusion, “You have done quite well before.”
Li Hanshan: “…”
Li Hanshan was a little puzzled.
He used to think that Hua Shiqing was a veteran in love, but why… Fu Wenxiao seemed to be so proficient in this kind of thing.
The four of them gathered here to talk, which really attracted attention. Jiang Su Tong Lujiu explained the terrain of Wanshan Temple, and felt that this matter must not be delayed any longer, so he finalized the night’s action with Sheng Hechen, then turned his head, and saw the four When people gather together, it is inevitable that they will be a little curious.
Sheng Hechen was faster than him, walked up to them, and asked with a smile, “What are you talking about?”
Hua Shiqing: “Just chatting.”
Fu Wenxiao: “Nothing.”
Fang Yuanluo: “I’m thinking about what to eat later.”
Li Hanshan: “…”
Li Hanshan didn’t know what to say. He thought about what Hua Shiqing said just now, and he could only turn his head, look at Jiang Su, and whispered, “If you want to act tonight, can I be with you?”
With so many of them, if they all stay in one place to ambush, it will inevitably attract attention. It is better to disperse a few places. Just now, Jiang Su was thinking about how to act in groups, and now Li Hanshan looked at him like this… He was silent for a moment, thinking Although Li Hanshan’s martial arts is high, his experience in traveling the world is not enough. If he is put together with other people, he will suffer a loss if he doesn’t keep them together.
Jiang Su nodded, and replied, “Come with me.”
Li Hanshan: “…”
God! The method Hua Shiqing and Fu Wenxiao said is really easy to use!
Seeing the two of them together, Sheng Hechen was a little displeased, he hurriedly said: “Brother Mu is extremely skilled in martial arts, he is not inferior to Su’er, if you really want to split up, why don’t you ask him to protect Young Master Hua.”
After all, this matter is related to Gu poison. Although Hua Shiqing does not know martial arts, he still wants to act with them. Of course, he needs personal protection.
Jiang Su hesitated, but Li Hanshan was silent for a moment, then remembered another method Hua Shiqing said.
At this time, he should not refute, he should accept it completely, without fighting or grabbing.
“Okay.” Li Hanshan was aggrieved, “I will protect Hua Shaoxia.”
After saying this, Li Hanshan was really wronged in his heart, so he could only look up at Jiang Su, as if he was a little at a loss, but felt that if this was Jiang Su’s decision, he should fully accept it.
Jiang Su: “…”
Jiang Su was silent for a long time, sighed and said, “You should come with me.”
Sheng Hechen: “…”
Li Hanshan: “…”
Li Hanshan was stunned.
He never thought that Jiang Su could be biased towards him so easily. If so, why did he have an unreasonable dispute with Sheng Hechen before?
Sheng Hechen was even more unhappy, couldn’t help raising his eyebrows, and said: “If he is with you, what should Hua Shiqing do?”
Li Hanshan: “…Let me go.”
“You don’t have the experience of walking in the rivers and lakes. If you encounter an accident, you will inevitably suffer a loss. It is better for you to stay with me.” Jiang Su said, “Brother Sheng, I will trouble you and Deputy Gang Leader Fang for protecting the Playboy. “
Seeing that the situation was very good, Hua Shiqing hurriedly said to Sheng Hechen, “Mr. Sheng, I will trouble you tonight.”
Sheng Hechen: “…”
“Su’er, you are quite partial to him.” Sheng Hechen snorted coldly, and said, “Don’t forget, he is a man of the evil way, and I didn’t say much, and I don’t mind if you take him with you, but you also— “
“You don’t have to fight anymore.” Li Hanshan said seriously, “Let me protect Hua Shiqing.”
Jiang Su raised his eyebrows, obviously angered by Sheng Hechen’s few words.
He felt that Li Hanshan was like this. He was able to not fight, snatch, or get angry when others bullied him. He couldn’t help but think of Xie Zeli, and the hardships Li Hanshan had suffered in the demon sect these years. Can’t help retorting, saying: “Brother Sheng, what do you think of evil ways?”
Sheng Hechen replied: “You and I are people of the righteous way, don’t forget that since ancient times, righteousness and evil have always been incompatible.”
“I don’t mind.” Jiang Su said, “There are so many evil friends around me, Master Sheng, if you mind, you should stay away from me.”
Sheng Hechen: “…”
Sheng Hechen snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Li Hanshan was watching the play in a daze, and then turned his head to look at Hua Shiqing and Fu Wenxiao. Seeing Hua Shiqing blinking at him, and Fu Wenxiao raised his hand to hint, he suddenly understood that at this time, he should say another word.
“You don’t have to argue about me.” Li Hanshan whispered, “If I start a dispute between the two of you, I…I will…”
He was thinking of words, but Jiang Su had already interrupted him, saying: “You don’t have to feel guilty.”
Li Hanshan: “…”
“There is absolutely no room for others to intervene in my relationship with you.” Jiang Su raised his eyebrows slightly, apparently still refuting Sheng Hechen’s words, and said, “I regard you as a close friend, and if I want you to stay by my side, then from now on , unless you want me to leave, even life and death will never separate you and me.”
