The ruthlessness and cruelty of Jianghu is hidden under the calm water. It is impossible to get a full picture without going deep into it and studying it. In the past, Li Muye was just a wanderer, following the waves, and there was no need for in-depth research on his responsibilities. As the director of the Special Investigation Office, Ono is gradually breaking through his previous understanding of the world of martial arts.
In the deepest reaches of Jianghu, villains and evil deeds are sometimes not always unified. There, cannibalism can even be a gentle word. The heinous serial killer is a minor character at best. Any ruthless character in Xunlongmen is worthy of killing countless people.
The real big devil in the world can kill thousands of people at a time for a purpose that he considers to be noble and sacred without anyone noticing. In this seemingly peaceful world of Shanghai Qing and He Yan, this is a shocking fact. The responsibility of the Special Office is to prevent these real demons who are invisible to the world but always exist in the world from doing evil.
From this perspective, Abe Qingkong, Fengjian Xiao, and even Bai Wuxia are all the same kind of Jianghu people.
The difference is only in stance.
Non-my family, its heart must be different!
The Japanese tribe is trapped on a narrow island, with frequent earthquakes, frequent crustal movements, lack of resources, and the possibility of facing annihilation at any time. In the 1920s, after the Great Kanto Earthquake, which killed hundreds of thousands of people, hawkish political forces began to dominate, which to a large extent prompted this small country to accelerate the pace of the Western Expedition.
In March last year, another devastating earthquake occurred in the eastern sea of the Japanese island country. The city known as having the most complete earthquake-resistant engineering was destroyed by the earthquake and tsunami almost in an instant. More than 15,000 people died, more than 8,000 people were missing, and a serious leak occurred at the nuclear power plant. As the only country in the world that has experienced the baptism of nuclear weapons, the fragile and sensitive nerves of the islanders have been tightened again.
Without the ability to launch an open war, they can only use other methods to gain greater living space for this desperate nation.
Li Muye suddenly remembered what Chu Qinchuan said to him in Moscow many years ago: When working on this front, the first thing to abandon is the universal view of good and evil, right and wrong. Most of the time, you only have two The choice is to either carry a cow through the hole at the tip of its horn, or carry the flower of despair to the grave.
I didn't fully understand what he said at the time, but now I feel that it is the truth.
If Bai Wuxia's actions are set aside from his national stance, they are undoubtedly truly treacherous and evil, and sometimes even cruel and willful to the point of being unreasonable. But looking at it from another angle, it doesn't seem that simple.
With the development of science and technology, the world is becoming smaller and smaller, and every nation is doing everything possible to protect and expand its own living space. And those moral principles that are generally put on the table internationally can indeed be exchanged for a good reputation, but they can only be exchanged for a good reputation.
He has been sharpening his knife for many years, and he has never given up the desire to devour it, both secretly and openly. Take Abe Qingkong, for example. He has been working hard in the Republic for many years, and even the top three gates of the world, such as Xunlongmen, have been dragged into his trap. One can imagine the seriousness behind this matter.
This can no longer be regarded as a simple struggle for hegemony. As the director of the Special Investigation Office, Li Muye has the unshirkable responsibility to stop any of their plans. And as Bai Wuxia's man, Brother Xiaoye must unswervingly support her in this matter!
Seeing that Xiaoyao Pavilion and Xunlongmen were about to form an alliance, Bai Wuxia seemed to be holding back. Li Muye realized what he should do. How to do? Brother Xiaoye didn't have any rules in mind. At this time, he, the director of the special coordination office, jumped out, which was almost equivalent to urging both parties to share the same hatred and turn their guns on him. If you want them to start a dog-eat-dog fight, you can't act recklessly.
In the Yuanchi Square, Kazama Kojiro stepped in with his sword in hand, but the Xunlongmen side did not send out He Nanbei, who had been so powerful before. But He Gui stood up personally.
At this moment, something suddenly happened on the field. A big baggage suddenly fell from the stalactites above the Round Pond Square and landed in the middle of the field with a crash. The bundles spread out, revealing three desiccated corpses, one of whom was still wearing Japanese general clothes from the 1940s.
Both parties were shocked. Without asking, they knew that these three corpses were the three great masters of Xiaoyao Pavilion who died here.
These three people are Army General Fujita Takeo, Jonin Grandmaster Kazama Ryuichi and Liu Changfeng's former Xiaoyao Pavilion Master Yi Yeqiu.
At that time, Xiaoyao Pavilion was at its peak, and the three great masters were all top figures in the world. The strength of Xiaoyao Pavilion even suppressed Xuanmen and Baiyuntang. They followed the military's footsteps to the Republic, wiped out many established Jianghu forces, and plundered countless treasures. If there had not been that shipwreck, even if the war failed, Xiaoyao Pavilion would still be called the winner, and the hawkish political power would not have been rapidly weakened to the point where it has not recovered for decades.
Yi Tongtian recognized the family Jiuju badge worn on his grandfather's chest at a glance. The Fengjian brothers also saw the family heirloom sword on the body of their uncle Fengjian Longyi: Shuanglong Xueyinche!
"Brother He, what do you mean by this?" Feng Jianxiao stepped into the field and saw three withered corpses falling to the ground. The bones were broken and the tendons were broken, and the corpses were divided into two parts. The situation was horrible and he couldn't help asking angrily.
He Gui was a little embarrassed and quickly explained: "Brother Kazama, please don't get me wrong. The bodies of the three seniors have been enshrined in my Dragon Gate for many years. Senior Abe once said that he had no choice but to take action against the three seniors for the sake of the overall situation. Although we have a clear conscience for the Yamato nation, we feel guilty for the three masters, so for many years we have been treating the remains of the three seniors like gods and worshiping them properly. The belongings of the three seniors have not been touched during their lifetimes."
Feng Jianxiao frowned and said, "Brother He means that someone deliberately threw out the bodies of my three Xiaoyao Pavilion masters at this time, with the intention of preventing you and our two families from forming an alliance?" He snorted coldly and said: " Brother He, is your Xunlongmen General Altar a vegetable market? Or are you saying that I, Fengjian Xiao, am blind and my heart is also blind?"
Kazama Kojiro shouted: "What nonsense are you talking to them about? It's impossible for these Chinese people to share our hatred and dare to insult the remains of the three founders of Xiaoyao Pavilion. They all deserve to die!" As he said that, he waved the long knife in his hand to show off. Jump forward and fight.
"You two, stop!" He Gui shouted quickly: "The facts are before our eyes. Brother Fengjian, please don't misunderstand me. Listen to me first. Our Xunlongmen is a sect that originated from Japan. The founder of the sect is originally a sect. Hisao Kameda and Kouki Yakushiji, who were envoys to the Tang Dynasty in the Nara period, have been in the same lineage and dual branches with Fukakuji Temple in the past dynasties."
"According to what you said, your history in China is longer than that of Xiaoyao Pavilion."
"The two founders were sent to China during the period of Emperor Tenchi. The officials of the mission were chief envoys, deputy envoys, judges, and recorders. In addition to about half of the helmsmen and sailors, the members also included chief gods, fortune tellers, onmyoji, doctors, and doctors. Painters, musicians, translators, historians. As well as shipbuilders, shipwrights, shipwrights, carpenters, casters, blacksmiths, jade workers and other craftsmen, there will be accompanying monks, students studying abroad who have stayed in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and those who have entered the Tang Dynasty for a short period of time. Those who returned from the mission were monks, students, and shooters engaged in defense."
He Gui quickly said: "Because only a handful of people were allowed to enter Chang'an back then, and the rest were assigned to study among the people. One of the two ancestors was an Onmyoji, and the other was a shipwright. They were reduced to water due to the chaos of the war. bandit, and then he was ordered to form a gang to lurk."
Kazama Xiao listened quietly, but Kazama Kojiro couldn't listen at all. He raised his knife and rushed forward, but he blocked it with his hand. He is known as the second best swordsman and has never been famous for his martial arts, but the moment he crossed his hand, he accurately cut into the flaw in Kojiro's swordsmanship and intercepted Kojiro's throat lightly.
"Brother He, please continue!"
He Guidao: "At the mouth of Baijiang River in Korea, Tang general Liu Rengui commanded the Tang army to defeat the imperial navy and burned 400 warships. In order to prevent the Tang army from attacking the island, the two ancestors carried heavy treasures into Chang'an and lobbied the important officials of the Tang Dynasty. After averting the calamity of national subjugation that year, the two founders were appointed by the imperial family as the leaders of the Secret Chamber sent to the Tang Dynasty. They lurked in China, studied classics, studied esoteric techniques, and gradually reached the situation they are in today."
Fengjian Xiao said: "There is no basis for what you say. Brother He and Brother Chang can't even speak the language of their homeland. How can you convince us with your words? But do you have any tokens to show me?"
He Gui said: "The seals and ribbons of the ancestors of the past and the seals of the Imperial family are all well preserved in Xunlongmen. Brother Fengjian can tell just by looking at them." After saying that, he immediately ordered people to get the relevant items.
Feng Jianxiao stood there waiting with a sinking face. Kazama Kojiro walked over, carefully collected Kazama Ryuichi's body, and put the Twin Dragon Snow Yinche, the ancestral sword of the Kazama family, in his waist. Yi Tongtian also went over to put away his grandfather's body and Jiuju badge. Another member of Xiaoyao Pavilion carefully put away Takeo Fujita's body. During the whole process, no one in Xiaoyao Pavilion said a word, and every member had anger hidden in their eyes.
"If Brother He didn't send someone to throw these three remains here, then Brother He, can you tell me who threw them here?" Feng Jian Xiao said: "This is the main altar of Xunlongmen. I, Feng Jian Xiao, have a pair of moves. My son was destroyed by the female devil, but your brother He and brother Chang’s eyes are still bright.”
Dajiang Dragon King Chang Dong said: "There is absolutely no problem inside Xunlongmen. I think outsiders must have infiltrated."
He Gui said: "My divine turtle did bring two people in, but if they hadn't lingered in the Immortal Cave at this moment, they would have been buried in the mouth of the group of mandrills in the Qinggui Cave. Even if they had the ability to pass through the Qinggui Cave, they would not have been able to pass through it. Maybe we can break through the attack of the dragons in the Five Poison Cave so quickly."
Fengjian Xiao said: "Those two people are probably official people. They were secretly spying on the river before. I have actually noticed it, but one of them is really highly cultivated, and his physical skills are not inferior to my brother's. , I didn’t want to create any complications, so I didn’t expose the two of them, but I didn’t expect that they would follow up here.”
He Gui said: "If we follow what Brother Fengjian said, then it is indeed possible for this person to break through here in a short time, or are these three remains the work of this person?"
Yi Tongtian snorted coldly and said: "We still don't know the truth. He Gui, are you too eager to tell the truth?"
"You surnamed Yi, how dare you talk to my senior brother like that!" He Nanbei, who was behind He Gui, suddenly jumped out again, pointed at Yi Tongtian's nose and cursed: "The state has national laws, and every door has its own rules. , When was it your turn to speak up in Xiaoyao Pavilion? Just because Feng Jian Xiao was blinded by Bai Wuxia for how many days did you act as the Pavilion Master? "
What he said was both unreasonable and heart-wrenching. Yi Tongtian's anger suddenly hit his forehead. He suddenly shook his Taoist robe, revealing the shiny metal armor all over his body. He shouted loudly and rushed towards him. He saw smoke coming from his feet. , moving as fast as thunder, he waved his hand and punched He Nanbei.
Bang!
He Nanbei, who was so powerful just now, was knocked upside down by this punch and vomited blood. He twitched into a ball after landing and looked like he would not survive.
The expressions of Brother Fengjian and Chang Donghe changed at the same time... (End of this chapter)
