Too Reckless - Vol 14 Chapter 14
clap la la-
The torrential rain hit the old roof, and the cold wind blew in from the cracks in the doors and windows, making a ‘creaky–‘.
There are only four walls in the house, only an old plank bed is left, and there are medicine bowls on the ground.
The young man in linen was curled up in the thin quilt, his face was pale and his lips were purple, and his forehead was covered in sweat.
boom—
With a muffled thunder sounded from the window, a deafening sound awakened the unconscious young man.
He first moved his eyelashes slightly, then turned his head from the plank bed, looking left and right, the unfamiliar environment came into view, and Heiliang’s eyes were dazed.
I crossed?
He felt dizzy, and after trying hard to recall, the body’s memories flooded into his mind intermittently.
My name is Liu Dazhuang, and I am the direct son of the Liu family, a famous martial artist in Huangfeng County. Both parents died when I was young, and my family property was deprived by the patriarch, until I was penniless and living on the streets…
What kind of Scorpio Lone Star start is this?
In order to hold grudges, I have devoted myself to practicing swordsmanship since I was a child, and I have a little success. Three days ago, I accidentally blocked the horse of a rich boy. I had a quarrel with people because of my martial arts. After that, I will…’, before he finished speaking, he was beaten to death again…
Am I insane?
The young man was a little stunned, turned his head to look at the room on the four walls of the disciple, and couldn’t help but secretly said in his heart:
Other family traveler, either rich or powerful, looks unparalleled, the peach blossoms are continuous, can master and apprentice, sisters, aunts and nieces stack Arhats together, how can I…
No, I seem to be…
Before the young man could finish his sigh, he realized that something was wrong, and then the memory in the depths of his soul quickly broke through the ban, and madly poured into his mind…
a little while ago.
It was just dawn, Zuo Lingquan got up from the quiet bed, dressed neatly, left the inn together, and went outside Tianying Castle to find the person in charge.
Huang Liang’s blessed land will affect the soul. For the sake of safety, Jing Xun and Qiu Tao under the jade steps are on standby outside, and only Zuo Lingquan and Miss Qiu go in to investigate.
Although Zheng Yu was greedy for money, he was really reliable in his work. The person who made the connection was waiting by the stone road up the mountain in Tianying Castle.
Zuo Lingquan and Miss Qiu took out the sign, and the other party didn’t ask anything, and took the two to the mountain trail, bypassing the towering fortress above, and came to the back of Tianying Fort.
Because I came in through the back door, I didn’t encounter anyone else on the road. After walking over the mountains and mountains for about a quarter of an hour, I arrived at the back mountain of Tianying Castle, and a huge stone cave appeared in front of my eyes.
The stone cave is similar to the spirit cave of the barren mountain. It is very large in scale. The buildings outside are also full of grand style. When you are outside, you can smell the faint aroma.
Zuo Lingquan did not relax his vigilance. He followed the person who led the way into the stone cave. After walking for a long time, he came to a bottomless fork in the depths of the ground.
The stone walls of the fork are covered with green vines, as well as the elders’ green leaves and light yellow flowers. The environment is quite good. Not far away, there will be a stone room for monks to retreat.
Zuo Lingquan guessed that the prisoner he was looking for was in a certain stone room underground, but with the presence of Tianying Castle, he was not easy to search, so he entered the stone room with Miss Qiu, and closed his eyes in the stone room full of flowers. Sitting cross-legged, waiting for the person who led the way to leave.
The monk who led the way, the service was in place, opened the mouth and said:
“If you have any knot in your heart, just recall it in your mind. When you wake up from the big dream, even if you haven’t solved the knot, you can consolidate your mood.”
Zuo Lingquan and Miss Qiu nodded their heads.
Originally, Zuo Lingquan was just pretending to meditate and did not enter into meditation, but this ‘Yellow Liang Blessed Land’ really has something special. He has come here before he feels the difference.
Zuo Lingquan stood in the dilapidated house on the four walls of the family, looking at his completely different body, and couldn’t help but be surprised.
He knew that this was just a dream of him sitting in the stone room, but the house he was in, and even the perception of his body and the feedback from the audition, were no different from reality. I really thought that I had escaped to an inexplicable world again.
Such a real dream naturally made Zuo Lingquan a little curious, he raised his hand and pinched his face, and the result…
“hiss-”
Zuo Lingquan took a deep breath, and his heart became more and more amazed. If he didn’t have the Taoism of the jade rank, and his spirit was not strong enough, he might really live a new life in his dream.
It seems that Tianying Castle charges such a sky-high price, and it is not all cheating…
But why give Lao Tzu such a **** life?
Is it my regret that I have not experienced hard times?
Am I sick?
Zuo Lingquan didn’t believe that his regret would be so strange. After thinking about it a little, he felt that this should be the template of a strong person that is common in the cultivation way. If nothing else, there is a great opportunity around him to make his skill soar and shame.
Seeing that Miss Qiu didn’t call him in reality, Zuo Lingquan tried to search in the house, but after searching for a long time, he found a wooden sword leaning against the door.
Zuo Lingquan picked up the wooden sword, and it felt like he had passed away. After all, for the first time in his life, he held the wooden sword that he had cut.
Seeing that this Huangliangdongtian can see into the heart, in order to prevent being spied on by someone with a heart, Zuo Lingquan insisted that he would not recall the past, hung the sword around his waist, and wanted to open the door to see the scene outside, and the result…
Squeak… bang!
A door fell down in front of my eyes, and fell into the courtyard dam that was torn by the heavy rain. There were already many cracks, and two more.
“This place is quite real…”
Zuo Lingquan looked at the tattered wooden door lying in the rain curtain, and couldn’t help but admire, not only the scene was fake but also the hunger that he had not experienced in several years, even came to his mind.
Looking up, the place is a strange dilapidated courtyard, with weeds everywhere, and there is only a wooden man with sword scars standing in the corner of the courtyard.
Zuo Lingquan looked around for a week, and obviously he couldn’t find an umbrella in the dilapidated house, so he covered his head with his hands, walked out of the yard, and came to the same dilapidated alley outside.
The rain was heavy, and the alley was empty. Zuo Lingquan thought that there were no outsiders in his dream, but he thought that after walking for a while, a courtyard door next to him opened, and a short and stout little fat man ran out and grabbed him. Pulled under the eaves:
“Da Zhuang, are you alive? I thought you couldn’t survive…”
Zuo Lingquan was speechless when he heard this strange name. He was dreaming anyway, and slapped the little fat man on the back of the head with his heart:
“Go aside.”
? !
The little fat man’s reaction was very real, first he was stunned, then his expression was stunned, he covered his head and said:
“I care about you, but you hit me?! We have a deadly friendship, but I dragged you back the day before yesterday. We used to peek at Widow Zhang bathing together, but I always let you step on my shoulders…”
Zuo Lingquan was also stunned for a moment. As the little fat man said, his bad memory was really hooked up. Knowing that this fat man was called Cheng Yue, he risked his life to fight him back from the street a few days ago.
But Zuo Lingquan thought that these memories had really happened, and when he tried to recall the scene of peeking at the widow’s bath, he found that the scene of the widow’s bath was blurry and could not be remembered at all!
Through this, Zuo Lingquan can be sure that these vague memories are fabricated.
Because no man can selectively forget to peek at the scene of the widow taking a bath. Normally, it will be remembered for a lifetime.
Although this Huangliang Blessed Land is extremely mysterious and can be confused with the real, it is still full of loopholes in the face of pure color embryos that pursue realism.
Thinking of this, Zuo Lingquan not only gave birth to a sense of superiority that should not have been born.
Of course, it could also be that “Widow’s Bath” is a paid content, he didn’t give enough money, and Tianying Castle didn’t get it out because he wasn’t a person.
But it also means that vague memories of this place are false.
Zuo Lingquan carefully observed the little fat man’s expression, and was really curious about how capable this Huangliang Blessed Land was, so he answered:
“You’re so fat, I must have stepped on your shoulders. If you stepped on my shoulders, I’d have to get down on the spot.”
The little fat man Cheng Yue said: “One yard is one yard, is it true that I came back with you on my back? People in Jianghu pay attention to stabbing swords, and you still hit me if you are not grateful…”
“Thank you, go, let’s go see Widow Zhang taking a bath, I didn’t see it clearly last time.”
“You still have the mind to watch a woman take a bath?”
Cheng Yue frowned and said, “I heard that Baidao Zhuang was hired, and Miss Huang, whom we are longing for, will be forced to marry. Are you in a hurry?”
Zuo Lingquan didn’t know that Miss Huang, so naturally he was not in a hurry:
“If you get married, you will get married. If a man can afford it and let it go, it’s more important to watch the widow take a bath.”
“Great!”
Wang Yue’s eyes showed indignation: “How did you become like this? You used to admire Miss Huang a lot. People walked over in a carriage, and you have to run over there at night and steal it again…”
What?
This group of profiteers in Tianying Castle…
When Zuo Lingquan heard this, he was even less interested: “Let the past be in the past, I just want something exciting now, let’s go, let’s go…”
Wang Yue grabbed Zuo Lingquan and said, “Da Zhuang, you must have been hurt and your heart has changed greatly. I know you haven’t forgotten Miss Huang. Let’s go to Huang’s house to steal people now…”
“Stealing people?”
“Just kidnap Miss Huang and run away. Miss Huang definitely doesn’t want to get married. This is our chance. Although you are not good-looking, your martial arts are not good, and your family background is not very good, you are confident! Miss Huang will definitely not dislike it. You. Even if you despise you, you won’t despise me…”
“…”
Zuo Lingquan looked down at the thief’s clothes, shook his head and sighed: “That’s it, let’s not disgust other girls…”
“Da Zhuang!” Wang Yue was heartbroken: “I don’t allow you to talk about yourself like this! Have you forgotten the grudge against your parents? Have you forgotten our aspirations?”
Zuo Lingquan’s parents were built in, what kind of hatred could he have? He waved his hand and said, “Forget it, I’m leaving, bye.”
As he spoke, he walked to the entrance of the alley, looked left and right, and continued to study this place that was fake and real.
Wang Yue stood at the door of the yard, looking at the back of the leaving, with obvious confusion and disappointment in his eyes.
But this emotion soon disappeared. I saw three men running in at the entrance of the alley, holding knives in their hands. When they saw Zuo Lingquan standing in the middle of the alley, they cursed angrily:
“Stinky boy, your mother is not dead yet? Hit me, dare to contradict my young master…”
dong dong dong —
The footsteps were hurried, and the two ferocious thugs behind them rushed up directly.
? ?
Zuo Lingquan was a little confused to tell the truth. He spent a lot of money to come in and have a dream, just to watch the widow take a bath and then go out to accompany Miss Qiu to investigate the prisoners.
Just now, he had a terrible life experience, and now it is the little villain who does not have his eyes to find fault. Could it be that this person will appear before him, and the little fat man will be shocked?
Zuo Lingquan didn’t want to follow the routine in his dreams, but if others scold him in his dreams, he couldn’t forget it.
Seeing that the person who came was making a rude remark, Zuo Lingquan’s wooden sword had already come out of his belt and stabbed the thug led by him.
This sword does not have the dazzling infuriating energy, but the ingenious momentum is fully displayed.
The man running at the front saw that Zuo Lingquan’s eyes were wrong, his footsteps stopped suddenly, and then…
Snapped-
The wooden sword poked at the thug’s chest and snapped into two pieces on the spot, showing several worm eyes on the wood.
Zuo Lingquan kept his sword straight in the torrential rain, and secretly said: Isn’t this a big chance hiding the grandfather? That’s it?
Before he could think about it, the strong man on the opposite side slashed over with a knife: “Scare me…”
Zuo Lingquan couldn’t block the knife with his arm, so he quickly took a few steps back, while the fat man stood at the door with a pale face.
The man at the head glared angrily: “Fatty Cheng, what do you want to do?”
“I…” Wang Yue rushed two steps, and became afraid again: “I’ll give my Widow Zhang the embolus.”
“roll!”
Cheng Yue wanted to leave, but after a little hesitation, she gritted her teeth and said:
“Fourth Master, you look at my face…”
“You have your mother’s face!” The man in the lead, seeing the little fat man blocking the way, raised his hand with a knife.
Even if Zuo Lingquan realized that these were fake, seeing the little fat man about to be stabbed made him show his instincts at this time.
The front thug had just rushed to the front, and before he had time to smash the wooden stick in his hand, he saw the young man who had no threat in front of him, his eyes suddenly showed murderous intent, and before he could react, the wooden sword had been inserted into his throat.
puff-
There was a muffled sound of a blunt instrument like meat.
Zuo Lingquan stabbed his sword into the throat of the incoming person with the momentum of rushing to thunder, and pulled it out in a flash, bringing out a splash of blood in the alley.
The blood spurted out of his throat before it landed, and half of the wooden sword had pierced under the arm of the undead corpse, hitting the eye socket of the thug at the back.
puff-
Two consecutive muffled sounds, almost simultaneously.
The fourth master, who was in the lead, didn’t even have time to turn his eyes when he heard the sound of breaking wind, followed by severe pain in his wrist, and the knife in his hand flew out and stuck on the wall of the alley.
flutter —
The two blood-sprayed corpses slowly fell into the puddle.
Zuo Lingquan sprinkled the blood on his hand, walked forward, and pulled out the knife on the wall.
“you…”
The fourth master, who was clutching his wrist, turned his head and saw this scene, his eyes were stunned like a copper bell, and he was so frightened that he forgot to run.
Cheng Yue originally closed her eyes, and only turned around to check when she heard the movement. She saw Zuo Lingquan walking slowly like a murderer with a cold face, and the two corpses behind her whose blood was gradually melting, her mouth wide open and her eyes full of shock.
puff-
A slasher’s head.
Zuo Lingquan started the knife behind, took advantage of the situation to put the knife between his elbows to wipe the blood, and watched the head roll to the ground:
“Are you going to say, wow, Da Zhuang, why are you so powerful?”
Cheng Yue wanted to say this, but when she came back to her senses, the shock in her eyes turned into panic, and she slapped her knee:
“It’s over! Are you crazy? How can you kill…”
Zuo Lingquan was also surprised: “They came to chop me, why can’t I kill them?”
“They are the subordinates of the master of the Hundred Knives Village, and the 108 swordsmen under the Hundred Knives Village, all of them are famous in the rivers and lakes…”
“Then go, go to destroy the door.”
“What?!”
The little fat man was stunned. He stared at Zuo Lingquan blankly, and pinched his face, wondering if he was dreaming.
Zuo Lingquan was born in Jianghu, and his interest in this kind of pleasure is not much smaller than Yujian Qianli. Since he is in a dream, Miss Qiu is not in a hurry to call him, so why not have a good dream?
He put the knife on his shoulder, grabbed the little fat man by the collar with one hand, and walked out:
“Jianghu people want to talk about credibility, and if they say that if they kill everyone, they will kill everyone. Let’s go.”
“Hey, don’t pull me if you want to die, or let’s go and see Widow Zhang take a bath…”
“After destroying the door, come back and see, have you heard the allusion of Wenjiu beheading Huaxiong?”
“What?”
…
—–
the other side.
The pouring rain fell on the half-mountain manor, and more than a hundred servants and servants walked through the corridors.
In a courtyard at the back of the villa, a maid was waiting outside the door. In the wing room, a young girl was lying on a canopy bed covered with a thin quilt, with a hot towel on her forehead.
The girl’s face was pale and her breathing was weak, but it soon became rapid again, and then she turned her head up and looked to the left and right, her eyes showing a dazed look.
where am i…
The girl felt dizzy and forcibly concentrated for a moment before the ‘memory’ slowly poured into her mind.
I am a cucumber…
What the **** is this name?
My father is a famous martial artist, and my mother is a famous lady. She grew up in peace and stability. A few days ago, someone suddenly offered a job. After I found out, I was scared and cried and fainted…
What’s the mess?
The girl didn’t believe these memories at all, because she was mentally tough, and she had never been afraid of two words in her heart, let alone fainted from crying.
At the moment of perceiving the strangeness, the real memory in the depths of the soul was also awakened.
“This place is quite amazing…”
Qiu Youyou looked down and squeezed her cheek again, with a look of surprise in Zuo Lingquan’s eyes.
She can perceive where the body is, and she can also perceive that Zuo Lingquan is ‘by your side’, so she thinks about cutting off the interference of the soul and breaking free from the dream.
But before Qiu Youyou made a move, she heard hurried footsteps coming from the door, and then a woman walked in, her eyes calling urgently:
“Guagua, you finally woke up…”
After Qiu Youyou’s soul recovered, those false memories became very vague, but seeing the appearance of the woman, she could still tell that this was the mother in her dream.
Although the appearance is very unfamiliar, there is no sense of intimacy connected by blood, but the concern in those eyes is not fake.
Qiu Youyou left her mother at a very young age. She hadn’t seen this look for many years. The moment she saw it, she stopped the thought of leaving. Even if she knew it was fake, she still wanted to maintain this illusion for a while.
As for why she dreamed of such a scene, Miss Qiu was not surprised at this time.
When she heard ‘regret’ in the stone room, the first thing that came to her mind was her mother, but she didn’t expect this Huangliangdongtian to be able to penetrate people’s hearts to this point.
Qiu Youyou felt a little wary in her heart, but she still didn’t leave, but looked at the strange woman in front of her.
The woman sat down in front of her, supported her on the pillow, and put the towel back on her forehead:
“Don’t sit up and have a good rest. Mother knows that you don’t want to marry, but the power of Baidao Zhuang is too great. It’s a courtesy to propose marriage, and if you don’t agree, it’s a soldier…”
Qiu Youyou looked into the woman’s eyes, his heart was full of nostalgia, and when he saw the woman’s face showing sadness, he asked casually:
“That Hundred Knives Zhuang, did you threaten you?”
“Bai Dao Zhuang has always been ruthless. If you don’t agree, there will be disaster sooner or later.” The woman wiped Qiu Youyou’s forehead and sighed softly:
“Jianghu is like this, as strong as Morning Dew Peak…”
When Miss Qiu heard this, she instantly returned to her senses: “Chenlu Peak?”
The woman nodded: “Yeah, the Huang Nvxia of Chenlu Peak, who used to be known as the number one swordsman in Jianghu, has been injured several times, but she still hides in Huangshan and dares not go out…”
Qiu Youyou frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
Morning Dew Peak is the name of the main peak of the barren mountain. She has been away for too long. Even if she mentions it every day, she still says ‘Main Peak, Zushitang, Shenhuodongtian’. She seldom calls the mountain by its name.
If it is a dream created by Huangliangfudi, how did Huangliangfudi know this information? If you spied it out without knowing it, wouldn’t it be more powerful than Soul Search?
Qiu Youyou is already in the middle stage of the Jade Rank, and he has long understood the spirit of the gods. He does not believe in the forged dreams of foreign races, and he can analyze the human heart so clearly.
If it is a coincidence, this is too coincidental, you must know that the Seal of Stealing Pill is under the Morning Dew Peak…
Thinking of this, Qiu Youyou couldn’t help but have some doubts in her heart…
Seeing Qiu Youyou in a daze, the woman continued:
“Don’t be afraid, women are all going to get married. The young master of Baidao Zhuang, although he is a little more hostile, but fortunately, he has a mark and a strong martial arts…”
How can Miss Qiu care about this, and she wants to ask about Chenlufeng to determine if it is a coincidence.
But before I figured out how to ask, another domestic servant came running outside the door and shouted:
“Madam, it’s not good, the young master of Baidao Zhuang was slaughtered…”
“What?” The woman was startled and turned around: “He was killed just as he said… Who is so bold?”
“I don’t know, the owner of Baidao Zhuang passed by the street on horseback, as if he had glanced at someone, and then he was chopped down before he could draw the knife. It is said that the person who came here was very arrogant. While eating and chopping, he also said, ‘I didn’t say that Shibei was treated with admiration for three days? Remember to make up for the knife when you hit someone in your next life’…”
…
