During the collision, Bao Xu was like a life-threatening ghost. His sword only wanted to cut bones and flesh, but Xiao Tang was like a strong and fierce wild wolf, hacking, picking, and slashing with his own unique skills. The two fought for more than ten rounds.
Suddenly I had a very strange feeling in my heart.
This is like the feeling that some people have when they meet their opponents in chess. But for Xiao Tang and Bao Xu, two wild beasts who are addicted to fighting, this feeling is also like the feeling of life and death in the middle of the fight regardless of their efforts.
A kind of heartfelt pleasure!
The heart-stopping sound of breaking wind came again, Xiao Tang stumbled to avoid it, Bao Xu used old tricks and used too much force, and he staggered forward a few steps. At the moment of life and death, Xiao Tang knew that as long as he took advantage of the opportunity to chop down,
You can cut off Bao Xu’s head with one knife!
Bao Zhong, who relied on his beastly instincts to fight fierce fights with his life-threatening sword, also realized at this moment that he had made a fatal mistake. Bao Zhong sighed secretly, thinking that he had killed countless people, but this time he would finally die at the hands of someone else.
Has the knife fallen?
But Xiao Tang hesitated.
Although this murderous Bao Xu is by no means an innocent person, Xiao Tang defeated Niu Wenzhong's camp not long ago because Niu Wenzhong provoked him and killed Xiao Tang's people; he wiped out Yang Duanyi in Lutai Mountain
Guys, because their behavior is too appalling. But if he kills Bao Xu with this sword, then Xiao Tang will gradually drift away from Liangshan and other heroes in the green forest and rivers and lakes, and slowly he will be completely
Standing on the opposite side of them, from now on, the government and the gangsters are at odds with each other...
Xiao Tang's knife did not fall down. He raised his knee and hit Bao Zhong's chest heavily. Bao Zhong took a few steps back. His thoracic spine was in pain. After coughing a few times, he looked surprised.
Looking towards Xiao Tang.
At this moment, there was a faint shout from outside, and Bao Xu's men heard it and said hurriedly: "Brother Bao, the eagle's talons are coming soon! Let's hurry up and shout!"
Bao Xu looked at Xiao Tang and said, "May I ask your surname?"
Xiao Tang replied loudly: "Da Mingfu Xiao Tang."
Bao Xu's expression changed: "It turns out to be Mr. Nirvana, a well-known man in hb circles, Xiao Renxia from the famous mansion! It's not unjust to lose at your hands, and I hope you will forgive me for the offence!" After saying this, he said hello and then
He and his subordinates withdrew one after another.
Xiao Tang finally felt relieved when he saw that Bao Xu had arrived suddenly and left in a hurry. When he entered the inn, he saw the fat shopkeeper shaking like chaff, fell to his knees on the ground and kowtowed to Xiao Tang.
With tears streaming down her face, she said gratefully: "Thank you so much for saving my life! If my benefactor hadn't driven away that evil thief, my whole family would have died at the hands of that evil thief!"...
When the officials arrived at the inn, they learned that it was Xiao Tang who had defeated the vicious bandit. They all praised and admired him without any words. After briefly talking about what happened, Xiao Tang ordered his bodyguards to go back to their rooms to rest. The next day
After dinner in the morning, the innkeeper refused to accept Xiao Tang's room and meal expenses. After thanking him profusely, Xiao Tang, Xiao Yi, Xue Yong and others escorted the escort team on the road again.
But after walking for about two hours, when Xiao Tang and his convoy arrived at a mountain valley, they saw Bao Xu and more than 40 thieves waiting there. Xiao Yi, Xue Yong and others immediately had their guns in their hands, their expressions on their faces
Xiao An was on guard, but Xiao An was so frightened that he hid behind an escort car and stuck half of his head out to look at Bao Xu and his group in horror.
Xue Yong said angrily: "This group of thieves are so ignorant that they dare to come to seek our misfortune!"
"Don't be impatient." Xiao Tang stretched out his hand to hold Xue Yong, looked at the movement on Bao Xu's side, and said, "Let's see what they have in mind first."
After a moment of stalemate, Bao Xu stood up and sang "Nie" to Xiao Tang. Then he made a "please" gesture and said to Xiao Yi, Xue Yong and others: "Don't act rashly, I'll go."
Come as soon as you go."
"Young Master! I'm afraid that evil thief is deceitful!" Xiao Yi hurriedly said to Xiao Tang.
"It's disrespectful to come but not to go." After saying this, Xiao Tang drove his horse to Bao Xu, got off the horse, and said to Bao Xu calmly: "I don't know if you have any other advice?"
Bao Xu pointed to the jar and wine bowl beside him and said, "I want to have a few bowls of water and wine with Xiao Renxia."
Xiao Tang didn't answer, and sat cross-legged on the ground. Bao Xu picked up the jar, poured two bowls, handed the wine bowl to Xiao Tang and said, "I've heard for a long time that Xiao Tang, a knight in the famous mansion, is a good and upright man.
It's Xiao Ke's honor to have wine with Xiao Renxia."
When the bowl of wine was brought to his lips, Bao Xu added: "I know that Xiao Renxia intended to spare me last night. Bao Xu will bear this kindness in mind. I will drink this bowl of wine first as a token of respect!"
Bao Xu raised his head and drank the strong wine in the bowl.
After Xiao Tang pondered for a while, he suddenly said: "To be honest, although I let you go, I feel a little regretful in my heart."
The expression on Bao Xu's face did not change, and he said to Xiao Tang Youyou: "Oh? So Xiao Renxia wants to kill me now?"
"I have heard of your name for a long time." Xiao Tang looked directly at Bao Xu and said in a solemn voice: "Sang the keeper has only killed people in his life, how many lives have he killed? I saw you killing the waiter last night.
, I’m afraid you usually kill kind people in vain, right? I’m wondering if if I spare your life, it will harm more people!”
Xiao Tang's tone became stronger and stronger, but Bao Xu's eyes were empty and he listened quietly to Xiao Tang's words. After a long time, he suddenly said: "If I say that I have never killed innocent people, will Xiao Renxia believe me?"
?That inn colluded with the government to plot against me, so of course I couldn’t tolerate him. But why should I kill him if he can’t harm me, Bao Xu?”
Xiao Tang's face immediately darkened, and he said sternly: "If you miss my kindness, don't seek revenge at that inn again!"
Bao Xu poured another bowl of wine, nodded and said: "I admire Xiao Renxia's name and character, and I agree to this. But...does Xiao Renxia want to hear a story?"
Bao Xu suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky, and said in a cold and numb tone: "I come from a poor farmer's household, my father works as a long-term worker in a large family, and my mother not only takes care of the housework, but also goes to the fields to grow grain all day long for food and clothing.
The young master from a wealthy family had several helpers... They would tease me, scold me, punch and kick me. I was just a child at that time, and I was only afraid of asking for mercy, and I didn't know where I had offended them. Those helpers
There is a big man among them who has practiced martial arts, and his attacks are very vicious. Every time I see him, I will be scared to death, as if I have seen an evil ghost..."
After hearing Bao Xu talk about his past, Xiao Tang stopped talking and just listened quietly.
Bao Xu continued: "Because of his dull personality, my father was often scolded and whipped by the wealthy family. Once he was beaten so severely that my father was dying and died a few days after he came back. This kind of thing happens in the countryside.
People don't hold officials accountable. My mother was already pregnant and didn't dare to report to the government. She just went to the door of a wealthy family all day long with her belly full, crying and begging for an explanation. The wealthy family was so annoyed by my mother that they sent out those
The servant was helping my mother chase her away, when someone kicked her in the stomach...
It's funny to say that even though I hated me at that time, I didn't dare to take revenge at all. I was just afraid... I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to survive, and no one from other families would complain about our family. The young master from a wealthy family even took the opportunity to warn other people. Poor people: Killing people like us is like killing a dog."
When Xiao Tang listened to Bao Xu telling about his tragic past, he suddenly remembered that he had read some information on criminal psychology in his previous life: due to long-term frustration and unequal encounters, murderers would not treat interpersonal relationships normally. Time is seen as violent, and the relationship between bullying and being bullied. Under the inducements of being withdrawn, introverted, internally strong and externally depressed, the murderer's distorted ideology gradually forms. At this time, as long as there is a triggering point in their lives that is touched, It will immediately turn on their killing switch.
Bao Xu is not the Sky Killer Li Kui who kills indiscriminately because of his nature. Is this the reason for his drastic change in temperament?
Just as he was talking, Bao Xu's weird and sinister laughter came out of his throat again, and he said: "Finally, one time, the young master from a wealthy family encountered something unpleasant, and he beat me up to vent his anger. I only remember that time. I was kicked on the head, and my mind went blank... When I woke up again, I found that I was covered in blood, and I was holding a sharp knife in my hand. Only then did I realize that I had stabbed the wealthy young man in the stomach alive.
The big man in the young master's gang who had practiced martial arts, the one I had been so afraid of, was so frightened when he saw my appearance that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed before I stabbed the knife into his throat. He cried for his father and scolded his mother, begging me to spare his life..."
Bao Xu had a strange expression, staring straight at Xiao Tang and said: "It was then that I realized that if people like me want to live and live better, I can only kill! I can only be better than anyone else. Cruel! Over time, I got used to it.
In this world, people's hearts are full of ghosts. Evil ghosts all live like human beings, but kind and gentle people live like neither humans nor ghosts. Instead of doing this, it is better to be the most murderous evil ghost and make everyone afraid of it. Only when everyone is afraid can we live happily, right?"
Xiao Tang shook his head and said: "But I'm afraid that if you act like this, there will only be more and more evil ghosts in this world!"
Bao Xu smiled softly and said: "I have heard for a long time that Xiao Renxia sent Jing Niang thousands of miles away and killed the powerful in the street. But you can't save the world, you can't save me and my parents, so I can only save myself."
Before Xiao Tang could say anything, Bao Xu stood up and said leisurely: "It seems that drinking this wine will not make you happy anymore, so let's stop here! Don't worry, Xiao Renxia. Although I, Bao Xu, am a grass bandit, I am also a grass bandit. He must practice what he says. I, Bao Xu, will never kill anyone who shouldn't be killed, but I will never let go of anyone who should be killed!"
Xiao Tang's lips moved slightly, but he stopped talking. Since he spared Bao Xu's life in a single thought, he would not want to get rid of him at this time. Seeing Bao Xu clasping fists and arching towards him, he led a group of people The men walked away.
