When everyone's attention was focused on Zhu Li, no one noticed that a young man with an honest look had quietly come behind Gu Qingfeng.
This young man, dressed in coarse linen clothes and with an ordinary appearance, was one of those people who stood out in the crowd and was inconspicuous.
No one paid any attention to the young man who approached Gu Qingfeng silently. They thought he was just an ordinary citizen who happened to move there.
But when this young man came behind Gu Qingfeng, his image changed instantly. His appearance suddenly became extremely ferocious, and his eyes burst out with tremendous hatred. The look he gave Gu Qingfeng seemed as if he wanted to eat him alive.
A cold dagger suddenly slipped out from his sleeve and was grabbed by the young man. Then, he suddenly swung the dagger with lightning speed and stabbed it into Gu Qingfeng's chest.
"Puff, puff, puff..."
The young man acted like a madman, stabbing several times continuously without interruption. Cold and beautiful blood spurted out instantly, splashing blood all over the young man's head and face.
At this time, Gu Qingfeng came back to his senses from Zhu Li's stunning knife attack. His originally swollen eye sockets suddenly bulged out like dead fish. He waved his hands blankly, trying to block the young man's assassination.
But it was all in vain. He didn't even have time to utter a cry of pain before he fell backwards with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Plop"
"ah... "
"Murder, murder..."
... ...
This bloody and brutal scene instantly made the surrounding people jump out like frightened rabbits.
Countless screams and shouts were heard, and the wind was blowing. The eyes that looked towards the young man were all filled with horror and fear.
Following the panicked screams, Zhu Li, Geng Xin, Yicun, Guo Dalu and others all looked over immediately.
What you see is a simple and honest young man, bathed in blood, standing there resolutely.
After killing Gu Qingfeng, there was no fear or hesitation in the young man's eyes. Instead, there was a feeling of relief. Yes, relief.
"You bastard, you're looking for death!" Geng Xin was furious when he saw this scene. Gu Qingfeng was the person he wanted to protect, but he was killed right under his nose. How could he not be angry
But except for Geng?m, more than 90% of the people present had a look of relief in their eyes. Even the horrified people, when they saw that the dead person was Gu Qingfeng, their eyes suddenly became relieved.
Among them, the four members of the Zhao family, Qi Miaoge and others were the most prominent.
Before he finished speaking, Geng?m rushed out, swung the Lingyun Three-Star Halberd in his hand, and smashed it towards the young man.
Geng Yanlang actually didn't care about Gu Qingfeng's life or death. He came to rescue Gu Qingfeng mainly to repay Gu Yanlang's favor. As for Gu Qingfeng, the villain who was rampant in the village and bullied men and women, if he were in his place, he would have been killed by him personally.
The reason for his rage was that everyone on the street knew that he came to save Gu Qingfeng, but Gu Qingfeng died in the end, which made him feel really embarrassed.
Geng?m swung his halberd angrily. Although he had no intention of killing, he also exerted 60% to 70% of his strength, and was definitely not so easy to block.
In the eyes of everyone, they all thought that the honest young man would not have a good ending.
However, Zhonghouqing's performance shocked everyone.
As soon as he saw the halberd coming at him, he just slightly turned his body and dodged the sharp halberd with incredible swiftness. At the same time, the young man immediately swung the dagger in his hand, sticking to the handle of the halberd, and jumped directly towards Geng?m like a snake swimming against the pole.
In just a blink of an eye, he was in front of Geng M. The dagger in his hand suddenly flashed a cold light, like a cold star in the dark night, shining on Geng M and stabbing him in the chest.
His momentum was sharp, his intention was decisive, and every move he made showed a murderous aura.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Li's expression changed, and he immediately became certain in his heart that this young man was definitely not simple.
It seemed that he had known that Geng M would attack him. After killing Gu Qingfeng, he seemed to be motionless, but in fact he had been on guard against Geng M for a long time. However, few people could match his scheming and calmness.
Judging from the opponent's moves, he is definitely not an ordinary citizen; between the changes of moves, there is a determination to move forward bravely and not fear death; more importantly, the opponent's eyes are very bright, with a series of expressions such as firmness, fearlessness, no regrets, and no hesitation hidden in his eyes. This is the belief that only an old soldier who has survived hundreds of battles can have.
This scene happened so fast that within less than half a breath, Geng Xin and the honest young man started fighting in close combat.
A loyal and honest young man, not only tough, but also looks very wise.
Perhaps it was because he had watched the duel between Geng M and the big monk that he realized that Geng M's skills in using the halberd were extraordinary. If Geng M was allowed the space to wield the halberd, he would be no match for him. Therefore, he took advantage of the opportunity when Geng M swung the halberd and did not take him seriously, and immediately made up his mind to engage in close combat with Geng M.
Although this scene happened suddenly, it was obviously something that the honest young man had planned long ago.
Facing the young man's stab in the chest, Geng Xin immediately raised his halberd and struck upwards, with the handle of the halberd pointing exactly at the point where the young man's wrist was swinging the dagger.
Obviously, the young man's plan worked. Close combat was not Geng M's forte, and he did not have a wide space to use his halberd, which greatly reduced his strength.
When the young man saw Geng Mian using the handle of his halberd to strike his wrist, he immediately drew his sword back without waiting for the move to become exhausted, and at the same time he raised his right knee violently and struck Geng Mian's abdomen directly.
You don't need to be skilled when punching someone in the face, and a straight knee to the abdomen is amazing. When you see your enemy, you can chop him vertically to meet the attack, and you can't dodge his kick.
This was the experience gained from the use of fists and feet. The young man swung the dagger towards Geng M's chest, just to lure Geng M to block it, thereby holding back both of his arms, or just one of his arms. If the opponent's arms lay horizontally, then he would be sure to hit him with a sudden knee.
If Geng?m uses one arm to block the opponent's attack, his knee will most likely be blocked by the opponent's other arm; it doesn't matter, at this time, he can kick with his legs to ensure that every kick goes in.
It's easier said than done. When facing the enemy, you only have a split second to think. In that instant, you take the opportunity to perform such a combo. It is impossible for a novice or even an experienced player to do this.
This is definitely an experienced and brave soldier, Zhu Li became more and more certain in his heart.
The fight between the two was dazzling and very sticky.
The honest young man seemed to have turned into an octopus in an instant, sticking closely to Geng Yan, swinging his fists, elbows, knees, kicks, headbutts, hip swings, etc., using almost all his strength to attack.
Although Genghis Khan could not fully display his strength, he was not easily shaken by this honest young man. The most important thing about him in history was to highlight his bravery.
As the saying goes, the arrogant are afraid of the stupid, and the stupid are afraid of the desperate. Geng Yanyu is a general who is as desperate as a hero and a model of someone who becomes more courageous as he faces more setbacks.
How could he be afraid of a temporary setback? His face was as gloomy as water and he faced the challenge sternly. He was not at all discouraged by being slightly at a disadvantage.
What's more, the person Geng Xin wanted to follow, Zhu Li, was right in front of him, and he couldn't afford to not behave well.
Until now, he has not had the chance to say a word to Zhu Li. If he were to fall into the hands of this young man who is obviously inferior to him before he could even open his mouth, he would not only lose face, but also his dignity. This is what he absolutely does not want Zhu Li to see.
From Zhu Li's perspective, the issue he is considering now is obviously even more far-reaching.
The sudden appearance of the honest young man and his eventual fight with Geng M made him frown.
He was not worried that Geng Xi would lose his life, because the opponent was Geng Xi, a brave general who had once led the charge for Liu Xiu and had survived hundreds of battles. How could he die so easily
Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, villains like Gu Qingfeng are dead and that’s it, and even if the government arrests them, they won’t be able to find them, which is exactly the attitude of watching the fun without minding the trouble.
But in Zhu Li's eyes, the death of Gu Qingfeng was a very serious matter.
Doesn't Zhu Li want to kill Gu Qingfeng? Under normal circumstances, Zhu Li would obviously not be polite to such a person.
But he kept hesitating, why
Zhu Li hid his identity and went to Sichuan mainly for Yuchi Jin. If he was questioned by the government because of Gu Qingfeng's death, his disguise would most likely be exposed. Once his identity was exposed, it was foreseeable that he would be in trouble one after another.
Also, as the commander of the Tiande Army, Gu Yanlang, had his son die. Would Old Gu let it go
The Tiande Army and the Zhenwu Army were originally established by the Tang Dynasty to deal with the threats from the Turks and the Uighur Khanate. Now the Uighur Khanate no longer exists, and the Turks are now in hiding. The enemies that the Tiande Army faces are almost in name only.
It can be said that in Guannei Road, the Tiande Army is a very free and mobile force that can be deployed at any time; his commander Gu Yanlang has lost his son. If he gets furious and just vents his anger on others, the entire Huayin County will be in danger, not to mention the people present.
This was not a time of peace and prosperity, but an era of great chaos. Moreover, the warlords at the end of the Tang Dynasty were notoriously violent.
There is another point that Zhu Li is very worried and unpredictable about.
Among all the people involved with Gu Qingfeng, the least conspicuous are Zhao Sanshan's family of four. However, among this inconspicuous family of four, there is one person who is very worrying.
This person was so weak that she could not even tie a chicken. If she was really the person Zhu Li imagined, once her true appearance was revealed, it would be no exaggeration to say that her power would be no less than several thousand tons of explosives.
As we all know, the most famous woman in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period was not "Hua Jianxiu", who was known as the most beautiful woman in the Five Dynasties, but several talented and beautiful ladies named Huarui.
In that dark and turbulent era, if you count carefully, there should be four Ladies Huarui.
Xu, the virtuous concubine of Wang Jian of Former Shu; Xu, the wise concubine of Meng Xu of Later Shu; and Xiao Huarui, the palace maid of Li Yu, the king of Southern Tang.
There is relevant information available for these three people, but the origin of the name Madam Huarui is related to another woman with both talent and beauty. It can be said that it was because of her that she got the name Huarui.
