Hearing Fang Baiqiu's teasing, Qing Ling Zi's face darkened. Although Qing Ling Zi did not have much affection for this junior brother of his, Qing Ling Zi was still one of the core disciples of the Qingcheng Sect. It was a disgrace for him to be severely injured by a kid in the Qi Nourishing Realm. Especially when it came from Fang Baiqiu, it made Qing Ling Zi feel even more humiliated.
"Constable Fang, since you know about the grudge between me and this kid, please don't interfere," Qing Ling Zi said in a deep voice.
"We, the Six Doors, will not interfere with ordinary Jianghu grudges. However, you brought so many people from the Qingcheng Sect here. It seems that you are not just here to settle the Jianghu grudges, right? With your realm and personality, do you still need to besiege a person in the Qi Nourishing Realm? "Fang Baiqiu continued.
"These junior brothers of mine are just here to see how I get revenge." Qing Ling Zi was able to lie through his teeth.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Fang Baiqiu revealed a look of realization. "Since they are here to watch the show, then the one who will fight is the same person. This is just a simple Jianghu revenge?"
"Of course." Qing Ling Zi seemed to be a little impatient. "Constable Fang, are you really going to stop me?"
"No, why would I stop you? The Jianghu grudges are settled in the Jianghu. I will not stop or interfere. However, there is one thing I want to be clear about. Since you are seeking revenge in the Jianghu, then you should act like it. Here is a life and death contract. Sign it. In the territory under my supervision, everything must be done according to the rules. "Fang Baiqiu actually took out a life and death contract.
There were three copies of the life and death contract. Qin Lang, Qing Ling Zi, and Fang Baiqiu each held one copy.
Qin Lang felt that this matter was a little strange. Although the Six Doors always liked to "meddle in other people's business", they rarely intervened in the grudges between Jianghu people. This was because the Six Doors was actually happy to see Jianghu people fighting against each other. The more grudges there were between Jianghu people, the more grudges there would be between Jianghu sects. These Jianghu sects were in a state of disunity, so the threat to the country and the Six Doors would be smaller.
Therefore, most of the time, as long as it was a grudge in the Jianghu, the people of the Six Doors would turn a blind eye to it. But now, although Fang Baiqiu said that he wouldn't interfere, he actually took out a life or death contract for them to sign. This in itself had the intention of interfering.
However, what made Qin Lang feel strange was that Fang Baiqiu seemed to be "helping" him. Although Qin Lang did not understand why, he felt that Fang Baiqiu was helping him. Qin Lang felt this from the tone in which Fang Baiqiu spoke to Qing Ling Zi.
The life and death contract was in Qin Lang's hands. Qin Lang glanced at it. This life and death contract was nothing new. It was nothing more than "Life and death are decreed by fate, riches and honor are determined by the heavens, life and death are not to be investigated" and so on.
Something like the life and death contract was a little funny, but it had been used since ancient times. Even the content hadn't changed much, because it was indeed useful.
In ancient times, life and death contracts were not only used between Jianghu people, but even some ordinary people would use them before a duel. This was because it was not only effective in Jianghu in ancient times, but it was also "legally binding". If one of the two people who signed the life and death contract was unfortunately beaten to death, even the government would not help them.
In today's society, life and death contracts did not have legal force. The current law would not support this kind of violent, bloody and barbaric life and death fight. However, the life and death contract still had its Jianghu effect, and it was suitable for duels between Jianghu people.
As long as one was a Jianghu person, after signing the life and death contract, both sides could not pursue the matter. Even the sects of both sides could not pursue the matter or take revenge. As for "reporting to the government", it was even more impossible. It would only be despised by all Jianghu people.
Qin Lang took a look at the content and then signed his name. For Qin Lang, he would fight with Qing Lingzi no matter whether he signed it or not.
Qing Lingzi did not even look at the content and signed it directly, because he could not wait to kill Qin Lang.
After signing the life and death contract, Fang Baiqiu had no reason to stop the "fair duel" between Qing Lingzi and Qin Lang.
Sure enough, Fang Baiqiu said, "Since you have signed the life and death contract, I will not stop the fair duel between you. People of the Qingcheng Sect, listen up. Your Senior Brother Qing Lingzi has agreed to fight with Qin Lang. None of you can interfere. Even if he is killed by Qin Lang, you are not allowed to seek revenge. Otherwise, you will be against our Six Fan School! "
Fang Baiqiu's words sounded as if Qing Lingzi would really be killed by Qin Lang. Qing Lingzi snorted and said, "Don't worry, Constable Fang. We of the Qingcheng Sect know the rules of Jianghu. Besides, the one who will die today is definitely not me, but this kid! "
"Fists and feet are merciless, and swords have no eyes. It's hard to say." Fang Baiqiu said lightly, "Since the two of you have signed the life and death contract, let's start. I also want to see the scene of a fierce fight between a dragon and a tiger. "
"Does he deserve to be called a 'tiger'? For me, it's just like pinching a fly to death! "Qing Lingzi said.
"I don't think you understand Constable Fang's words. A fierce fight between a dragon and a tiger means that I am the 'dragon' and you are the 'tiger'." Qin Lang said calmly, "However, you are not a tiger, but a gecko, a reptile."
A battle of words had always been Qin Lang's forte.
"You will pay for your stupidity!" Qing Lingzi's face was livid as he slowly raised the long sword in his hand.
"Go to hell — —" Qin Lang shouted and threw a small bottle at Qing Lingzi.
Although he said "throw", he was actually using the Tangmen's hidden weapon technique, which was equivalent to throwing the Flying Locust Stone. Although Qin Lang was not a member of the Tangmen, his talent in hidden weapons was not just for show. Even Tang San could not help but admire him.
Among the people of Jianghu, the so-called fair duel was never really fair. It seemed that as long as it was a one-on-one duel, it would be fair. As for the duel between the two parties using hidden weapons, swords, or bare hands, it was all their own business. No one would interfere. For example, in a duel with a Tangmen, could you still ask the Tangmen not to use hidden weapons and poison?
Therefore, it was understandable that Qin Lang used hidden weapons at this time. Although the people of Qingcheng Sect scolded Qin Lang for being shameless and using hidden weapons at the beginning, they all felt that this was Qin Lang's final struggle. Because in the face of an expert like Qing Lingzi, it was impossible for Qin Lang to have a second chance to make a move.
The people of Qingcheng Sect were very accurate. In front of Qing Lingzi, Qin Lang really did not have a second chance to make a move. This was something that Qin Lang himself knew very well. However, Qin Lang did not need a second chance to make a move at all.
As the successor of Poisons, since he was determined to kill a person, there was no need for a second move.
