At this moment, the boat that had been going down the river in front also stopped.
The bow of the boat lay across the weeds on the shallow water bank, and it stopped.
In the light rain, Pan Ruoye, who had been quietly staying in the cabin of the boat, came out and walked to the stern, waiting for his boat to arrive.
The surface of the river with light mist has a hazy and dreamy color, making Pan Ruoye in light yellow clothes like a fairy in the water in the legend.
The yellow-robed practitioner standing on the bow of the boat drifting down the upper reaches is tall and straight. If the couple on the two approaching boats are surrounded by water mist at this time, if they are drawn by the painter, it will definitely be impressive. It feels like a couple who have reunited after a long absence.
However, the two people who were so calm on the bow knew that only one of them would be able to leave this place alive when they officially met today.
"Actually, I don't like killing people very much. I always feel that killing people must bring some of their own emotions. If it's not hatred, it means the other party makes me unhappy, or the other party's eyes are hateful, which makes people feel disgusted at the first sight."
The yellow-robed cultivator's boat slowly settled in the middle of the water. His slightly frowning brows were slowly released, and he looked at Pan Ruoye, as if he was an acquaintance, without any opening remarks, and said slowly, "When I first started practicing when I was young, Whether it is reading storybooks or some things recorded in ancient books, it is always difficult for me to understand. Both parties who must separate life and death seem to like to talk nonsense, but when I grow up and start to kill people, I don’t know. Begin to understand... Because killing is not a happy thing after all, the real meaning of dialogue is to relieve this unpleasant emotion, especially when facing an opponent who has never encountered before, a complete stranger, and kills immediately after encountering, Then facing a cold corpse, it really feels like chewing wax, inexplicably empty, lonely and cold, so, what should I say?"
After saying this, the yellow-robed cultivator bowed to Pan Ruoye and added, "I'm going to Zheng Jingcheng."
"I know who you are."
Pan Ruoye looked at this yellow-robed practitioner, as if looking at an acquaintance, and said: "The best assassin in Jiaodong County, one of the four practitioners in Jiaodong County that Zheng Xiu fears the most, when the fleet of the Great Qin Dynasty opened up overseas waterways, There are many powerful practitioners on those overseas islands who died in your assassination. If you really talk about military merit, at least your military merit will not belong to Liang Lian. You act the most cautiously and do not ignore the slightest possibility of hindering your shot. You You have been following me before, and you are telling me these words until now, because you don’t want any shadow to affect your shot.”
"You're very honest."
Zheng Jingcheng pursed his lips, and then said: "It is precisely because you know the Queen too well and our Jiaodong County too well that you are ranked second on the must-die list. But I don't understand, you clearly Knowing my intentions, why didn't you look for an opportunity to make the first move during the few days I've been with you? With your cultivation base, it's impossible not to find an opportunity to take advantage."
Pan Ruoye didn't reply for a long time. When she spoke again, her expression was slightly cold, "Because I was thinking."
Zheng Jingcheng asked naturally: "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking, if Zheng Xiu and I switched positions, what would I do if I were Zheng Xiu in such a situation." Pan Ruoye said coldly: "I want to understand, if I have a clear conscience , whether the other party believes it or not, she will definitely try to explain it, but I didn't wait for the person she sent to explain, but I waited for the person who came to kill me."
"So I'm not going to fight first, or I'm waiting, waiting to see if she will try to do something to prevent you from killing me." Pan Ruoye sneered, looking at the place where Shen Xuan and Zheng Bainiao fought, After a pause, he continued: "The result is that the killing has already begun, but I haven't waited for any explanation from her. This only shows that some of my guesses are correct. She knows that the real facts cannot be concealed, so she can only Get rid of me by your hands."
Zheng Jingcheng listened to her words seriously, his face remained unchanged, even with a trace of sympathy, "Your guess should be correct."
"You want to talk to me more, but your mood fluctuates a little. Obviously, your assassination against someone in Changling City failed. It's just that even though you have talked to me so much now, you have re-confirmed that I have nowhere to go. , but I’m afraid talking with me won’t be good for your shot, but will affect your mood and confidence even more.” Pan Ruoye looked at the most cautious Jiaodong County practitioner, and sneered: “Because people like you Compared with us, the practitioners in Jiaodong County will always lack something."
Zheng Jingcheng's brows twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "What is it?"
Pan Ruoye looked at him, and said slowly: "Zheng Xiu and I met for the first time, before taking me into Changling, I was in a mountain town outside Bashan, when the army was fighting with the Bashan Sword Field, a group of horse thieves fled us The village where we were located took advantage of the opportunity to ransack several mountain towns around us. Almost all the adults in the mountain towns were killed, and only many small children could hide in some hidden corners and survive. Among the children who survived, I was also one of the thinnest. In order to compete for some food, these children also turned into wolves and killed each other, but I was the one who survived in the end."
"If you think about it now, it's too coincidental. It's not good when the maid under her hand will show up. Why did she just show up when we were killing each other until I was the only one left." Pan Ruoye laughed, "You Jiaodong Many practitioners in the county also practice in this way, but there is the most essential difference between you and us, that is, you know that you will encounter such things from the beginning of your practice, and you have a long time to fear and overcome Fear, to prepare for it. But we are different... We come across things like this suddenly, we come into such desperate situations without any preparation. So you don't have the natural bravery that we have. Brought out of dogs A real wolf is different from a born wolf king."
Zheng Jingcheng frowned.
But Pan Ruoye didn't give him time to speak, and continued, "So you want to choose the most suitable time to destroy my aura, but the more desperate you are, the more you can stimulate my spirit. The most important thing is, These days I am still thinking about some sword moves in the sword scriptures."
Zheng Jingcheng's face froze suddenly.
Pan Ruoye looked at him, and said heavily: "I'm comprehending some sword moves in the King Chen's Sword Sutra, and now I've almost figured it out."
"So I said that these conversations with me will not eliminate some of your bad emotions, but will only make you less confident."
Pan Ruoye looked at the silent Zheng Jingcheng, his calm eyes suddenly turned into a sea of storms, full of killing intent, "This is the time I've been waiting for."
