Pawn Crossing the River

Chapter 166 The Shen Family and His Son

, cross the river pawn

Qi Xuansu casually pulled up a chair and sat down. He must have been pretending to be a man in black for a long time, and he felt a little bit like a golden sword.

Liu Hu stood beside Qi Xuansu, still silent as usual, but his eyes were bright.

The special experience created Liuhu's special character.

They also lost their parents, and they also had an elder who was not related by blood.

Liuhu and Qi Xuansu are not exactly the same. .

Qi Xuansu is not a good person, but he is not a bad person either. He is the epitome of thousands of ordinary people, complex and contradictory. Those who are good to me are good, and those who are evil to me are good to me. If it is good for me, I will agree with it, and if it is not good for me, I will not agree with it.

A very simple example, Qi Xuansu believed in rules and orthodoxy, so what he wanted most was to leave the Qingping Society, return to the Dao Sect, and climb within the Dao Sect, rather than wandering around the world or being promoted within the Qingping Society. But after encountering difficulties, Qi Xuansu was skeptical of the rules and preferred to go beyond the rules to solve the problem, such as killing Wan Xiuwu. Qi Xuansu never thought of solving the problem through Feng Xiantang. From the beginning to the end, he always wanted to solve the problem. Sword Wan Xiuwu personally.

This is where Qi Xuansu's contradiction lies.

This is also caused by Qi Xuansu's past experience. Nearly twenty years of experience in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, coupled with the teachings of his master Qi Haoran, have created Qi Xuansu's strong sense of identification with the Taoist sect. But the master's death and Qiniang's influence made Qi Xuansu extremely distrustful of the Taoist rules.

Qi Xuansu is not Zhang Yuelu. He has never thought about changing this situation. He is more like Guang and Chen. If he can't be like Guang and Chen, he will violently break the rules.

The teaching inertia of Wanxiang Taoist Palace made Qi Xuansu occasionally act chivalrously, but this so-called chivalry was not a matter of Qi Xuansu's empathy, but more of a habit, so Qi Xuansu's fight against injustice was not profound. And his experience in the martial arts world has made Qi Xuansu ruthless, and he often takes people's lives.

This gives Qi Xuansu two faces, just like Qi Xuansu's dual identities and two names.

Therefore, compared with Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, Zhang Yuelu is a very clear straight line, while Qi Xuansu is an erratic curve. His boundaries between good and evil always change with changes in the environmental situation, and survival is the first priority. There are times when Zhang Yuelu puts his ideas first. For example, in the Jiangnan case that year, Zhang Yuelu was able to investigate to the end without fear of life or death. But if Qi Xuansu was the one to deal with it, he might not be able to persist until the end.

Compared with Qi Xuansu, Liu Hu is more extreme. Qi Xuansu was already an adult man when his master died. It was true that his master's death was a blow to him, but this blow was not enough to destroy the various concepts he had formed over the past many years, and he could also sort out the cause and effect.

But Liu Hu is just a little girl, and the Jiangnan case is too complicated for her to figure out, so she will inevitably hit a dead end and become extreme. Being well-behaved and obedient are just superficial, but underneath they are as indifferent as Qi Xuansu and Xu Kou. This can be seen from the way Liu Hu kills several people with his hands without changing his expression.

Qi Xuansu and Xu Kou may not be able to tell it, but they can vaguely sense it, so neither of them hate Liu Hu, and even like it a little, because the three of them have many similarities in nature.

From this point of view, Liuhu is also a straight line, but compared to Zhang Yuelu's solid line, Liuhu is a dotted line, because Liuhu has too much confusion and confusion and fails to implement it consistently.

This has to be said about the leaders of Qi Xuansu and Liuhu. The seemingly unreliable Qiniang actually taught Qi Xuansu a lot, while the seemingly reliable Bodhisattva Man was a bit laissez-faire.

Because of this, Liu Hu didn't feel any sympathy or anger at this time, but more of curiosity and excitement about being able to imitate the story in the script.

Qi Xuansu glanced at the woman sitting not far away. With Liu Hu's help, she had finished dressing up, but she was just in a daze as if she had lost her soul.

The young man on the other side had been beaten by Xu Kou. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He no longer had any arrogance, but there was a bit of resentment in his eyes.

Qi Xuansu asked: "What is your name?"

The woman came back to her senses and replied in a low voice: "Little girl Zhao Ying."

Qi Xuansu nodded and asked, "What on earth is going on?"

Zhao Ying was silent again.

Xu Kou looked indifferent and disapproved.

Even if this woman said that she was willing to accuse him and Qi Xuansu of being nosy because of some concerns, such as the safety of her family, he would not be surprised at all.

Anyway, he has already made it clear that beating this boy has nothing to do with anything else, it is just because this boy disturbed his drinking, it's that simple. In his opinion, all principles and righteousness are just a shell, and they are basically the law of the jungle.

Qi Xuansu didn't rush him and just waited quietly.

After a moment, Zhao Ying suddenly burst into tears, and then knelt down towards Qi Xuansu: "You two heroes should leave quickly. After a while, the officers and soldiers will come to the door, and you two will not be able to leave."

Qi Xuansu said calmly: "We are not green forest heroes, we are officers and soldiers."

Zhao Ying was startled.

Not only Zhao Ying was stunned, but the young man was also a little stunned.

Qi Xuansu spoke with righteousness and righteousness in the official language that he didn't even believe: "What crime should be committed by robbing a civilian girl? I want to see who can cover up my Daxuan. As for the officers and soldiers coming to the door, , that couldn’t be better, they just let things go and help others do evil, which cannot be justified by an oversight.”

Xu Kou broke the news and said, "It's too early to say whether we want to rob civilian girls."

Qi Xuansu looked at Zhao Ying again.

Zhao Ying then looked at the young man and said: "This Young Master Shen, my brother owes him money. I wanted to ask him for a few days of grace, but he asked me to come here to see him. After I came here, he..."

Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered something and looked at the young man with a bruised nose and face: "By the way, what's your name?"

The young man didn't seem to hear him and deliberately didn't answer.

Xu Kou slightly raised his voice: "What about you, are you deaf?"

The young man did not dare to pretend not to hear anymore and couldn't help but shudder. Xu Kou beat people, and the injuries were not serious, but the pain was deep in the bones. This was all the cruel tactics of the jailers.

"Shen Yugui." The young master whispered.

Qi Xuansu suddenly thought of a person, Shen Yuxi.

All the past events came to mind.

The master, covered in blood, rushed out of the encirclement, grabbed him by the back of his collar, threw him out, and shouted at him to run away.

He was so frightened that he subconsciously turned around and ran away, running with all his strength. He could only hear his own heavy breathing and heartbeat.

A dark figure quickly chased after him, but did not rush to take his life until he was exhausted and could no longer run.

He wanted to resist, but he didn't even have the strength to draw the sword. His eyes went black, and he could only watch as the black shadow stabbed his chest with the long knife in his hand.

Just before he passed out, a hand knife pierced the shadow's chest from the back.

Qiniang appeared in his world for the first time in this stunning way.

Qingpinghui has great magical powers, and Qingpinghui is omnipotent.

The Qingping Society soon found out the details of their enemy, who was Shen Yuxi.

Next, in a courtyard of Jinling Mansion, Shen Yuxi, who was very drunk, was stabbed in the chest with his sword.

This was the first time in Qi Xuansu's life that he had killed an enemy with his own hands.

Qi Xuansu did not expect that after a few years, he would meet a member of the Shen family again. But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense that Luzhou is where the Shen family is.

Qi Xuansu would not regard all the Shen family members as enemies just because of one Shen Yuxi, but there was no need to hide his dislike for the Shen family.

Shen Yugui argued: "It is natural to pay back debts. Your brother owes three hundred Taiping money. Even if I grant you a ten-year grace period, will you still have to pay it back? If you are asked to repay the debt with your own body, even if you go to the government, there will be an argument. "

Zhao Ying said anxiously: "You, you, you clearly set up a trap to harm people. You arranged all those people."

"Do you have evidence? Just because you have red lips and white teeth, you slander others?" Shen Yugui said loudly.

While he was talking, there was a loud noise outside.

Qi Xuansu knew that the real owner had arrived.

A man in brocade clothes with a smile on his face walked in front. He was over middle-aged and had gray hair on his temples. There were many people crowding behind him, including servants wearing square hats, strong men dressed as servants, and people in green clothes. Qingluan Guard. Fortunately, there were no black men or Taoist priests.

Qi Xuansu stood up and stood side by side with Xu Kou.

The man's appearance was full of local tyranny, even a bit like a green forest figure, but his temperament was quite elegant, like a famous Confucian scholar.

The man motioned to many of his followers to wait outside, and walked into the private room alone. His eyes briefly glanced around, and then fell on Qi Xuansu and Xu Kou.

Qi Xuansu said: "What a courage. Knowing that the murderer is here, you still dare to come in alone."

"This military master is joking. There are no murderers here, we are all friends." The man said with cupped hands.

Qi Xuansu asked: "You haven't asked for advice?"

"The surname is Shen, Shen Mingshu." The middle-aged man smiled warmly and pointed at Shen Yugui, "This is the dog."

Xu Kou suddenly interjected: "It is the father's fault to raise him or not teach him."

"Your Excellency?" Shen Mingshu turned to look at Xu Kou, not angry, but still smiling.

"Xu Kou." Xu Kou did not deliberately use a false name, but it was in line with his style.

Shen Mingshu thought for a moment and remembered: "It turns out to be the famous Little Yama. It seems to be a misunderstanding."

Xu Kou was noncommittal and just said: "Is it a misunderstanding?"

Shen Mingshu turned to Shen Yugui, and the smile on his face gradually faded: "What on earth is going on?"

Shen Yugui seemed to be afraid of this father and lowered his head: "Misunderstanding, this woman owed money and promised to sell herself to pay off the debt, but she went back on her word halfway and yelled, which alerted the two adults."

Xu Kou asked: "Since we agreed in advance, why did we regret it halfway?"

Shen Yugui glanced at his father and said with a dry smile: "Her brother owed three hundred Taiping, and I only agreed to waive one hundred Taiping. You damn bitch was so greedy that you asked me to waive all three hundred Taiping. I will do it myself." But she refused, so she regretted it.”

Tears rolled down Zhao Ying's eyes, and she said in a trembling voice: "I didn't, didn't sell myself to pay off the debt, I just begged him for a period of grace, but I didn't expect that he, he..."

Shen Yugui's face changed several times: "Three hundred peace dollars, can you afford it after a period of grace? You just deliberately approached me under this banner. What kind of woman can I not find in my daily life? If it weren't for you Seduce me, why would I fall in love with a vulgar fan like you!"

Zhao Ying was so angry that she was trembling all over and speechless.

Qi Xuansu asked: "Why did she want to borrow 300 Taiping from you? Is there any mortgage?"

Shen Yugui shook his head and said: "Then I don't know. I just borrowed money. As for the mortgage, I saw that they were pitiful, so I didn't ask for a mortgage."

Qi Xuansu continued: "You didn't ask why you borrowed the money, and you didn't ask for a mortgage. You just lent the money out. Aren't you afraid of becoming a bad debt? Or have you been considering selling yourself to pay off the debt?"

Shen Yugui was about to speak when he was suddenly slapped hard in the face. The world was spinning and he was speechless.

The one who hit him was none other than Shen Mingshu.

He slowly retracted his palm, his face expressionless, he just looked at Shen Yugui coldly.

Shen Yugui's legs went weak and he fell to his knees unconsciously, dripping with cold sweat.
