Chapter 123: Tricky and Poisonous
Chapter 123: Tricky and Poisonous
Ding Minjun was arrogant and domineering in the field. A figure slowly approached in the darkness, but it seemed to be injured and did not dare to move too much. Suddenly, a big hand slapped his shoulder, making him stiffen. He was about to fight back but felt that the vital points on his body were still blocked. A hand was groping on his body, which made him feel creepy.
Ding Minjun threatened Monk Peng, but she also wanted to blind him. When she thrust out her sword, she heard a slight sound, as if it had been hit by something. The sword flew out three inches, only scratching the corner of his eyebrow. Monk Peng's face changed slightly, and he shouted angrily, "Ding Minjun, kill me if you want to, don't humiliate me like this."
Ding Minjun was also a little confused. She looked around in confusion but didn't find anyone else. She wanted to continue to interrogate him but was stopped by Ji Xiaofu who couldn't bear to watch. The two of them fought, but Ji Xiaofu was unwilling to kill him because of their friendship. Then Ding Minjun exposed the scandal of having a child out of wedlock, and she was beaten by Ding Minjun in a panic.
Monk Peng saw that Ding Minjun seemed to want to kill Ji Xiaofu, and she didn't care about the friendship between fellow disciples at all. Ji Xiaofu was kind-hearted and refused to torture him, so she could only talk nonsense loudly and gave Ding Minjun the nickname "Poisonous Hands and No Salt". Ding Minjun became furious and left Ji Xiaofu and stabbed Monk Peng with her sword.
Suddenly, a man rushed out from the woods, shouted loudly, and stood in front of Monk Peng. Before Ding Minjun could retract her attack, the long sword had already pierced through her chest. The man's palms hit Ding Minjun's chest hard, and with a bang, she flew several steps away and fell, spurting blood from her mouth.
The long-bearded Taoist from the Kunlun Sect took a few steps closer and exclaimed, "Bai Guishou, Bai Guishou!" Then his knees went weak and he sat down on the ground.
Ji Xiaofu bandaged herself simply, reached out to unblock the blocked acupoints on Monk Peng's waist and ribs, and turned away without saying a word.
Monk Peng tried to thank Ji Xiaofu but she dodged him. He also wanted to kill Ding Minjun but was stopped by Ji Xiaofu. Monk Peng watched Ji Xiaofu leave and hurried to check on Bai Guishou's injuries, but he only saw a half-broken sword stuck in his body without a trace of blood. He was stunned for a moment.
"Bai Guishou" stretched out a trembling hand, pointed at Ding Minjun, and spoke intermittently, "This woman is vicious. She wants to kill Miss Ji and put the blame on you. Miss Ji is the designated successor of the old nun Miejue, so she will be furious. To prevent the matter from being exposed, these people will definitely be killed by her. Then, it will be your fault and mine. This person cannot be spared."
Bai Guishou's words surprised everyone, but they found it very reasonable. Ding Minjun might really have had this idea in mind. But Monk Peng said, "I promised Miss Ji that I can't kill this evil woman."
"Okay, let them kill." "Bai Guishou" pointed at the injured disciples of Shaolin, Kunlun and Haisha. The five injured people did not have much strength left. They looked at each other and cast murderous eyes at Ding Minjun. Ding Minjun snorted but said nothing, without any intention of denying it.
Monk Peng shook his head and said, "Such petty tactics are not my style, and these people cannot be spared. I, Monk Peng, have no deep hatred or grudge against you, and I don't necessarily want to kill you. But tonight, this woman surnamed Ding slandered Lady Ji, and you all heard it. If it spreads to the martial arts world, how can Lady Ji live? I can't leave them alive, but I have no choice. Please don't blame me."
Bai Guishou grabbed his wrist and said, "Let them write in blood that the murderer is Ding Minjun. You died because of Ding Minjun, and I'm sure you don't want her to have an easy life."
Monk Peng has basically confirmed that this guy is definitely not Bai Guishou. Bai Guishou is not that insidious. The disciples of Shaolin, Kunlun and Haisha know that they cannot be spared. They also understand that although they intend to kill Monk Peng, the other party did not originally want to kill them. He had to do so because of Ding Minjun. He hated her so much in his heart that he actually wrote Ding Minjun's name in blood.
"You evil villain, you are so vicious." Ding Minjun knew that if these things were seen by other sects, she would never be able to wash them away even if she jumped into the Yellow River. This was more painful than killing her.
Monk Peng was injured but was unwilling to delay any longer. He killed all the disciples from the three sects and slashed Ding Minjun's shoulder with a sword. Then he picked up "Bai Guishou" and left laughing, heading in the direction from which "Bai Guishou" came.
Ding Minjun panted for a long time before leaning on the ground with the help of his scabbard and went forward to destroy the blood letter written by the disciples of the three sects. Still not satisfied, he limped away with the shattered blood letter.
But just as Monk Peng stepped into the darkness, "Bai Guishou" jumped down by himself and casually took away the half of the long sword. It turned out that the half of the long sword had been neatly cut in half by him with a sharp weapon. This person's martial arts skills were probably even better than his own.
"Who are you?" Monk Peng didn't think Bai Guishou had such martial arts and intelligence, otherwise he wouldn't have been hunted down so hard.
"Wudang Song Qingshu greets Master." The man casually wiped away the disguise on his face, and with a crackling sound, his body suddenly grew taller. It was Song Qingshu who had used the bone shrinking technique. "Can't Bai Guishou grow a little taller? He made me feel uncomfortable for a long time. I simply treated his injuries as payment for stealing his clothes. He's not far away. You can take him away. That Ding Minjun is also a fool. If she hadn't mentioned Wudang and Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt, I would have just ignored her. But she ended up causing so much trouble."
"Song Qingshu of Wudang, your behavior is not at all consistent with that of a Confucian hero." Monk Peng was frowning, but his mood improved a lot.
"Is it none of your business? Do you think being a Confucian knight is what I want? A scholar is good for nothing, and that refers to those corrupt Confucian scholars. I, Song Qingshu, am Song Qingshu, and those Confucian knights don't even think about restraining me. Bai Guishou is the fifth aunt's subordinate, you take him to heal his wounds, and then ask him to disguise himself and lead people to live in seclusion in the northernmost part of the Japanese island, and come back only after the Mongols are destroyed. Don't worry, you will definitely see that day." Song Qingshu's words made monk Peng, who was determined to resist the Yuan Dynasty, very happy, and then he saluted Song Qingshu. However, Song Qingshu was not Ji Xiaofu, and he accepted his salute generously before leaving.
After watching them leave, Song Qingshu returned to Zhang Wuji's side and arranged for the two younger ones to go to bed. Zhang Wuji suddenly asked, "Brother Song, Aunt Ji is Uncle Yin's fiancée. That woman surnamed Ding said she, she said she had a baby with someone else. Do you think it's true?"
"The person who knows you best may not be your friend, but may be your enemy. Although Ding Minjun is not a good person, she is not a complete fool. She is just ugly and narrow-minded. She is not very open-minded and has always been at odds with Lady Ji. So, I don't know." Song Qingshu shrugged and said, "Children should not interfere in adult matters. Nun Miejue and Grand Master will handle this matter. We, the younger generation, can only watch."
Zhang Wuji was no fool. From how Monk Peng had just silenced someone to how Senior Brother Song had told him not to talk, he knew that this was probably true. However, although Senior Brother Song liked to lie, he rarely lied to his own people. If he said he didn't know, he probably really didn't know. What would he do if he were Senior Brother Song?
It probably means that nothing without evidence can be taken seriously, and there is no smoke without fire. We just need to investigate it thoroughly. Well, maybe after sending me to Butterfly Valley, Senior Brother Song will leave to get to the bottom of it. As the third-generation chief disciple of Wudang, he really values the reputation of Wudang.
If Song Qingshu heard Zhang Wuji's thoughts, he would definitely say, "Brother, you think too much. I will indeed leave, but I am not going to investigate a woman who has changed her mind. Instead, I will run around for you. I don't know if the Nine Yang Divine Art is reliable, but he is determined to obtain the One Yang Finger."
The next morning, the four of them had a simple meal and set off again. However, they encountered a group of Tartar troops just after they walked a few miles. These people soon became the targets of Song Qingshu's venting. He did not kill them, but just broke everyone's hands and feet, stripped off their armor and weapons, and took away their horses.
As for the money on these people, it will fall on whoever has it. I think some people will use their money to hold their funerals.
