The mansion of Shen Men Cottage was in chaos. As the night deepened, more and more red lanterns were hung. Many of the acquaintances began to gather and whisper to each other. Those who did not have time to get close to the fight were all shocked by it. 34 people died in the encirclement of the young swordsman who went up the mountain to pick a fight. Even the head of the cottage, Shen Zhi, was stabbed in the heart. Because of the rolling Sword Qi, Shen Zhi, who had been in the second rank for many years, was careless and died, which did not cause too much speculation. After cleaning up the mess, Shen Kaihe in purple went to the back of the mountain and knocked on a wooden door. He told a white-haired old man about the situation at the top of the mountain. The old man did not say a word. In the end, he stared at his grandson's eyes. Shen Kaihe sat upright and did not move, especially with a straight back. The old man in Changle Peak was like a retired emperor who retired after abdicating. He finally spoke in a plain tone, "Bury your father early to avoid leaving a topic for gossip."
Shen Kaihe knelt down and cried bitterly, "I am unfilial!"
Now that his grandson was no longer observing his expression, the old man slowly showed his weariness, just like a piece of rice paper that had been laid out for many years, but after a drop of thick ink had been dripped into it, he would eat the ink later. He no longer mentioned this matter and asked, "How is that woman from Dunhuang?"
Shen Kaihe choked and said, "I don't know if she took advantage of the chaos to go down the mountain or to loot a burning house."
The old man said in a low voice, "You gradually alienated yourself from the Governor of Orange State. You can't expose yourself and make him hate you. But I will draw a bottom line for you on behalf of your father. If you dare to cross the line and insist on using the lives of the Shen family as a bargaining chip for your future, since I already have several great-grandsons, Shen Zhi and Zhongli Handan are dead, I don't mind losing one of you. If I can't help you up, why should I help you? "
Shen Kaihe, who kept his head down, said, "I know the severity of the matter."
The head of the cottage closed his eyes and concentrated. Shen Kaihe waited for a moment before he got up and bowed to leave.
It was destined that the mountain would be covered in mourning clothes at dawn.
The mountain wind was bleak. The old man opened his eyes and looked at the door. "Since you're passing by, why don't you come in for a chat?"
The voluptuous woman in embroidered clothes smiled sweetly, pushed open the door, entered, and sat down directly. The old man with a serious expression sized her up and asked, "Miss, are you in the embroidered musk deer that entered the rankings with that blind zither player, Xue Song?"
The woman touched her blood-red lips with her finger and smiled. "I'm only at the bottom. It's not worth mentioning."
This Old Man shook his head and said, "Because there are two people in the second place, making a total of eleven people on the list. The first place and the little girl called Jia Jiajia are just a little more famous, but they don't live up to their names. In this Old Man's opinion, in terms of killing techniques, Xue Songguan is good at Xuan Xuan Killing Vajra, so he should be ranked first. Miss Jin Musk might not be in the top three, but at the very least, she should be in the top five."
The beautiful young woman pretended to hold her chest and laughed while covering her heart. "Shen Shuihu, everyone in the Orange Prefecture says that you have high standards. How is it that your flattery skills are better than your skills? You really have hidden your strength well. "
The old man who was being sarcastically laughed it off and changed the topic. He sighed and said, "My family's dirty linen is made public. Miss Jin Musk, please don't laugh at me."
The woman raised her eyebrows and asked, "Dirty linen? Is it as ugly as me? "
The old man laughed and said, "Miss Jin Musk, you really like to joke. This Old Man has lived for more than eighty years, but I've never seen a woman as beautiful as you."
She asked seriously, "I killed an ignorant Cottage employee called Du Qinglou, who was a spy on Murong Baoding's side. Will you punish me?"
Shen Shuihu thought for a while and shook his head. "This Old Man is not qualified to punish you. Not to mention the 'Second King' in Dunhuang City and the small Cottage, even you can come and go as you please. However, the Imperial Edict will definitely be investigated. Can the Cottage say that it was Dunhuang City who killed you? Miss Jin Musk, you also know that the Cottage is not Dunhuang City. We can't withstand the Imperial Edict from Murong Baoding. "
The woman twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Okay."
Shen Shuihu bowed and said, "I'll have to rely on Dunhuang City in the future."
She nodded.

Xu Fengnian came to Mount Liuyi all by himself and left all by himself. He found a pot of wine at Qing Zhu Niang's wine shop and carried his book case on his back. Wearing a black robe and a white undershirt, he drank as he walked. Xu Fengnian felt that he finally had a motherf * cking heroic demeanor.
Why did he go up the mountain to kill people? Hsu Fengnian walked on the muddy road that was full of potholes due to the horse's hooves. He thought for a while. Qing Zhuniang's words were so good. In Hsu Fengnian's opinion, he took the initiative to jump into the Jianghu. Whether it was dog paddling or backstroke, he could only rely on his own abilities. For example, the Fish-dragon Gang and Liu Nerong had to be responsible for their own lives. Other people practiced martial arts and ran to help the weak after reaching a certain level. Hsu Fengnian was in Beimang and was in a precarious situation. He did not want to join in the fun. Since he was determined to seek fame and fortune in the Jianghu, he could not blame others if he was killed by the waves.
