whale.

The blade is three feet and three inches long, and the handle is two feet and two inches long.

The white tiger's eyes were angry at the place where the knife's jaw was swallowing, and he raised it like a tide.

Chen Ji slowly put the knife away in front of him. The whale knife did not leave a drop of blood and was as smooth as a mirror.

Under the moonlight, he saw himself in the "mirror". The dead leaves in the mountains were swept behind his back by the mountain wind, and the hair beside his ears moved slightly with the wind, all of which were clearly visible. The wind stopped.

A dead leaf slowly fell from the sky on the whale's blade, silently split in two, and returned to the earth lightly. This knife spanned thousands of years and finally returned to his hand.

Chen Ji suddenly thought, if this sword is real, if the inexplicable familiarity he felt when holding the sword is also real, then everything Xuanyuan said must also be true. Keguixu, peach blossom, friend, teacher, student

, the stars in the sky...why can’t I remember them at all?

Who are you?

A rustling sound came from dozens of steps away. Chen Ji looked around calmly, but there was no one in the dark forest.

The other party didn't seem to be in a hurry to kill him. He just hid in the shadows in the mountains and forests and asked, "Mr. Feng asked me to ask you, have you made a decision?" Chen Ji took a deep breath: "What decision?"

The questioner said calmly: "Mr. Feng, I want to ask you, do you want to escape back to Luo City, or go back to the military town to save your friends." These black-clad killers suddenly appeared, like a field of lonely souls.

Ghost, asking heart-wrenching questions.

Chen Ji stopped answering and just dragged the whale knife towards the military town, walking faster and faster.

When passing a big tree, the tree seemed to peel off its bark, revealing a black figure, and silently slashed Chen Ji's back with a knife. But Chen Ji had seen this method of ambushes using light and shadow too many times from Feng Huai.

.

In an instant, he looked back as if there were eyes on his back and struck with a knife. A trace of blood spattered on the ground, and the man in black slowly fell to the ground. It was a clean and neat move, leaving no room for anything.

When the traces were gone and I walked forward, I saw the shadowy figures in the mountains and forests retreating. Someone whispered: "It's not like the acquired realm, it's the innate realm."

Someone responded: "It's not the innate realm, it's the knife." "Mr. Feng has an order, kill without mercy."

"Kill without mercy!"

The black shadows stopped retreating and immediately surrounded Chen Ji, weaving a net around him.

If the traces go to the left, the net will move to the left. If the traces go to the right, the net will move to the right, getting tighter and tighter.

These four men in black who had been subjected to the victory-weary technique are far superior to ordinary military elites. Even the traces of their entry into the spiritual path cannot be shaken off. There is not much difference in physical fitness between them. When the four men in black arrive,

When they were only five steps away from Chen Rui, everyone burst out with unparalleled sword light at the same time. Four swords were overwhelmed.

Chen Ji suddenly rushed forward like a tiger, and opened the whale knife in his hand to meet him. He didn't care about the light of the knife on the left, right, or behind, and only killed the person in front of him. The man in black in front of him was shocked and immediately stepped back.

But as soon as he retreated, Chen Ji immediately stopped chasing and turned to face the other three people. The knife turned with him and he smashed the knife forward. The long and narrow whale knife drew a bright arc in the moonlight. It made three clanging sounds and had three long handles.

The knife broke at the sound! The man in black who was frightened by him rushed forward again with a knife to help, trying to force Chen Ji to turn back, but Chen Ji knelt down on the ground without looking back and struck the knife with his backhand. The whale knife was like a halberd, and the black man behind him was struck with a sword like a halberd.

The man's wrists were completely cut off.

Chen Ji half-knelt on the ground, looking around at them quietly, like a tiger crawling in the wild.

The four men in black looked at each other, and were about to abandon their broken knives and fight to the death with their bare hands, when suddenly there was a vague and melodious sound of a flute in the distance.

It's like a little shepherd boy sitting on the broad back of a black buffalo, slowly passing by the stone arch bridge. Nearby is the small bridge stream, and in the distance is the Baiyun Mountain Cliff. Mr. Feng.

For some reason, Chen Ji didn't see the flute player, but he subconsciously read the other person's name in his heart. It was as if as soon as the other person appeared, no matter in what form, you knew it must be him.

A man in black held his broken right wrist with his left hand and said calmly: "Mr. Feng wants to see you. Whether he wants to see you or not is up to you." After that, the four men in black retreated and retreated. In the shadow of the mountain forest.

Chen Ji stood up and looked towards where the flute sound came from.

He meditated for a moment, then took the initiative to walk toward the sound of the flute with his whale knife in hand. As he got closer and closer, the sound of the flute suddenly sounded like the shadow of a bamboo sword, filled with murderous intent.

Chen Ji subconsciously looked around, almost thinking that hundreds of swordsmen were about to come out in the forest, but there was nothing around him. He suddenly realized that the other party had played the flute to create the illusion of an ambush on all sides, and after walking dozens of steps, But I saw Mr. Feng in a green shirt sitting on a short bluestone holding a transverse flute. The fisherman who had appeared on the awning boat stood quietly aside.

Chen Ji raised his hands and saluted: "Mr. Feng."

Mr. Feng slowly put down his flute and looked at Chen Ji with a smile: "Why didn't you take the opportunity to run away?" Chen Ji said calmly: "You can't run away."

Mr. Feng clapped his hands and praised: "Smart. But since you are a smart man, why do you want to go back to the military town? You should know that it is useless for you, a small official in the acquired realm, to go back. Moreover, you and Your Majesty, we have only known each other for a short time, so why should you risk your life for others?"

Chen Ji leaned against a tree trunk with a tired expression, and took a long breath: "Maybe I'm not smart enough." Mr. Feng sighed: "It's not that you are not smart enough, but because of the so-called chivalrous spirit of a young man."

Chen Ji remained silent.

Mr. Feng handed the flute to the fisherman beside him, smiled and stood up from the blue stone, slowly walking towards Chen Ji: "There was once a person who said that he could use fame and fortune as a sword to cut off nine points of chivalry in the world. Over the years, there have been countless chivalrous people in the world. After being recruited by the imperial court, various sects disappeared, all the world's spiritual practices were shelved, and the world became a boring place."

He looked at Chen Ji and said: "But when I saw you today, I suddenly realized that his words actually had another meaning. It turns out that there is still a bit of chivalry in this world, and even he can't kill it. Respectable, It's sad, it's songable, it's...ridiculous." Chen Ji was puzzled as to who Mr. Feng was talking about.

Fame and wealth are like swords, and they can cut off nine points of chivalry in the world. Such a big tone.

Chen Ji asked: "Why does Mr. Feng think it's ridiculous?"

Mr. Feng replied with a smile: "The so-called chivalry is the courage to do it when you know you can't do it. But if you know you can't do it, why do you still do it?"

Chen Ji said: "I don't understand what chivalry is, and I don't think chivalry is just courage. I made a decision just to feel clear in my heart... Since Mr. Feng is a smart man, why did he choose the Liu family?" Mr. Feng

Standing in front of Chen Ji, he said with great interest: "Tell me, why can't I choose the Liu family?"

Chen Ji thought for a moment and said: "Although the Liu family is a foreign relative and has great power, with the Queen Mother at the top and a prominent Yuzhou family at the bottom, your Majesty has been grudged against the Liu family for a long time, and decline is bound to happen sooner or later. Your Majesty ascended the throne at the age of eleven, and now he has

Thirty-one years of imperial rule. If they couldn't fight the eleven-year-old child thirty-one years ago, can they be able to fight him thirty-one years later?"

Mr. Feng smiled and said, "Continue."

Chen Ji continued: "Not to mention Your Majesty and the Chief of Ceremonies, let's talk about the famous families in the world. The Xu, Hu, Chen, Qi, Liu, and Yang families are entrenched like tigers. The Liu family can only rank at the bottom among them. Morning

It may have been extremely powerful a few years ago, but now it is not as powerful as the other five, is that right?"

Mr. Feng nodded: "Yes, the other families don't think much of the Liu family now. The reason why the Liu family is so weak is because they were cannibalized by them."

Chen Ji raised his head and looked into Mr. Feng's eyes: "Since Mr. Feng can see through this, why not change the lintel? As the saying goes, good birds choose trees to live in, and good ministers choose kings to treat. It would be a pity for a smart man like Mr. Feng to stay in the Liu family

Already."

Mr. Feng raised his head and laughed loudly: "Hahahahaha, no wonder you dare to face me directly. It turns out that you want to trick me into going to the Chen family. The young man is really brave and courageous. However, you are in a state of death and no life.

I suddenly thought of a way out for myself, not bad!"

Chen Ji stood with his sword in hand and said calmly: "I am not looking for a way out for myself, but I am looking for a way out for Mr. Feng." The sky and the earth became silent, and everything was silent.

In this mountain forest, you can't even hear the chirping of birds.

Under the night, the young man looked embarrassed but determined, holding the long knife in his hand and standing tall!

The fisherman behind Mr. Feng immediately stepped forward to punish Chen Ji for speaking arrogantly.

But Mr. Feng raised his hand to stop him, and said to Chen Ji with a smile: "The head of the Chen family is a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and a minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. He also controls Shanzhou and Dongzhou. It seems that

The future is brighter than that of the Liu family. However, you cannot be the head of the Chen family. Chen Ji, Chen Ji, you are a little bastard who is not allowed to enter the ancestral hall when worshiping ancestors, how can you recruit me?"

Chen Ji shook his head: "I'm not trying to convince Mr. Feng for the Chen family." "Who is that for?"

"Prince Jing's Mansion." Mr. Feng fell into deep thought.

Chen Ji said softly: "Mr. Feng, the Liu family's collusion with Lian Jingchao has been leaked. Although there is no conclusive evidence, the court does not need evidence for its actions. I think that at this time, His Majesty's Long Live Army Chen Bing was in the north of Yuzhou to guard against the Liu family. This kind of thing

Under the circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for the Liu family to rebel, and the building would collapse. Rather than being buried with the Liu family, why not leave at the right time? You can let the prince and the princess go, and Prince Jing will keep you safe."

"Aren't you worried that Prince Jing is also involved in the rebellion?" Mr. Feng asked curiously.

Chen Ji shook his head: "If Prince Jing colludes with the Liu family, Mr. Liu Ge won't have to arrest the crown prince as a bargaining chip with the princess. Mr. Feng, it's safe to turn around."

Mr. Feng gave him a funny look: "How dare you think and say that you are obviously going to die, but you are still talking nonsense. Why don't you stop recruiting me? I see you are a talent, so why not follow me?

Just do things by my side, and I will spare your life. If not, I wouldn't have to waste half a day talking to you."

He looked at Chen Ji steadily and asked, "How about you do things with me?" Chen Ji said, "Okay."

The world is quiet again.
