Coming out of the royal study, Bai Yifeng was not in a hurry to leave the palace. Emperor Chongzhen did not have many days left to live, so he was too lazy to argue with him. He found the library of the palace and soaked himself in it.
Even though there were no martial arts manuals in the palace at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were still many medical books and miscellaneous books. Bai Yifeng could read ten lines at a glance and had a photographic memory. He immersed himself in it for three days straight. When he was hungry, he would go to the imperial kitchen to get some food. Even Chongzhen probably did not have as much food as he did.
……
When they came out of the Imperial Palace, they found that the usually bustling capital seemed to have become an empty city. The doors of the common people and businesses were all closed. Occasionally, there would be people walking outside in a hurry.
After walking into an empty restaurant, Bai Yifeng took out a jar of wine and started drinking.
On the 8th day of the 3rd lunar month, Li Zicheng led hundreds of thousands of peasant uprising soldiers dressed in black and black armor. They were like dark clouds that covered the sky as they rushed to the city walls of Jingdou. Cannon fodder and arrows flew over the city walls from time to time. The Ming army's defense was in chaos, and they were unable to do anything. They immediately gave up resisting and opened the city gates to surrender.
When Bai Yifeng arrived at the palace, the Empress and a few concubines had already hanged themselves in the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Chongzhen's clothes were disheveled, and his eyes were unfocused as he sat on the dragon throne.
Ah-Jiu came in front of Chong Zhen and cried,""Imperial Father, the situation is urgent. Hurry up and leave the palace!”He then instructed the eunuch beside him to serve him well.
Chongzhen told Ah-Jiu to leave quickly, but Ah-Jiu shook his head and refused. He said stubbornly,""If Imperial Father doesn't leave, your son won't leave either. I'll die with Imperial Father.”
Chongzhen pulled out the sword beside him and said with tears in his eyes,""Why did you have to be born in the royal family!" Perhaps he couldn't bear to see Ah Jiu being tortured after the judge entered the palace, so he immediately stabbed his sword at Ah Jiu's chest.
The long sword broke into two pieces, and half of it fell to the ground. Ah-Jiu was stunned and still didn't know what was going on. Then, she felt someone holding her waist.
"I'll take her away from the capital!" As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them disappeared in front of Chong Zhen.
Chong Zhen slumped on the dragon throne and heaved a sigh of relief."Thank you."
He brought Ah-Jiu to perform the third level of the Light-body Technique, Vanishing Shadow. In less than two hours, the two of them were already a hundred miles away from the capital. Then, he gave her the gold and silver that he had casually taken from the palace and the secret manual that he had written again. He said that he would take care of himself and left immediately.
The three favors that he had to return after coming down the mountain were all paid off. Bai Yifeng was about to go home, but he immediately thought of Li Zicheng's appearance when he entered the city in his previous life. He was still a little worried.
Two hours later, he returned to the capital.
Li Zicheng's rebel army had only entered the city for half a day, but the capital was already riddled with holes. Li Zicheng's militia continued to slaughter in the city. Although Li Zicheng only allowed them to plunder as they pleased, this scene was no different from a massacre.
Although Li Zicheng's army was mostly peasant uprising troops, and those who could not afford to eat were forced to rebel, many of them were bandits and local ruffians. Seeing Li Zicheng's power, they joined him. Li Zicheng himself was also a bandit, so he did not reject anyone who sought refuge.
Suddenly entering the prosperous capital of Yanjing, the bad habits in his bones were immediately triggered. Burning, killing, looting, and raping women were not uncommon.
Bai Yifeng's eyes turned red as he watched, and his anger soared to the top of his head. He immediately began to wave his hands and kill. The golden feather cloud was like a golden lightning bolt, and many civilian soldiers had already fallen to the ground and died before they could see clearly.
After killing all the Revolutionary Army soldiers in the surroundings, he saw a man who looked like a general riding on a horse in front of him. He looked like the leader of this group.
Then, he waved his fan, and the sword qi split the man and the horse in half.
The bodyguard beside him trembled violently as he looked at Bai Yifeng in disbelief. Finally, he cried out involuntarily,"General!"
Bai Yifeng flashed in front of the bodyguard and slapped him on the head. The force entered his body and his entire head exploded like a watermelon. Red and white things scattered all over the ground.
When everyone around saw this scene, they were all terrified.
Alone, Bai Yifeng killed until the sky darkened. The number of soldiers who died in his hands was no less than ten thousand. No one dared to go forward.
Carrying his sword, he walked to the main hall of the palace. At this moment, Bai Yifeng was covered in blood, and there were many pieces of flesh on his clothes. Hu, Miao, Fan, and Tian, the four masters, came forward. Bai Yifeng did not hold back. Phantom Shadow cooperated with the Panic Sword and slashed open the necks of the four people. He did not know if these four people who helped the evildoers had any descendants, or else that snow fox would not be able to fly.
His figure flashed in front of Li Zicheng and said coldly,"You really deserve to die." He kicked him into the air, and with a flash of sword light, he threw the longsword and nailed the injured man to the dragon pillar in the hall.
Then, he left.
The name of Master Bai spread all over the world, from the distant Jianghu to the high court.
Because his surname was Bai, the same surname as Baiqi, the people even said that Master Bai was the reincarnation of the God of Killing.
……
Island
The small island had grown a lot bigger with a gentle breeze. The small tree in the center of the island had changed even more. For some reason, it had not grown so fast even after eating Sanlu. It was only about two meters tall before, but now it was a towering tree the size of a millstone.
This thing was really strange. It was full of red flowers and golden leaves, but there were no fallen leaves on the ground.
Bai Yifeng walked to the back of the courtyard and saw Long 'er picking vegetables in the vegetable garden. His figure flashed and he came behind Long' er. He hugged her waist and said,"Little lady, did you miss your husband?”
Long Er's body trembled as she felt the familiar warm embrace. Tears welled up in her eyes as she turned around and buried her head in Bai Yifeng's chest, sobbing. "Husband, why did you go out for so long? I thought you weren't coming back."
Bai Yifeng patted her back and lowered his head to kiss her. After a long while, he said,"" Alright, alright, don't cry anymore. Husband, I don't care how long I'll be gone. I'll always remember to come home."
night
Bai Yifeng comforted Long Er until she was too weak to beg for mercy. She found out from Long 'er that she had been on the island for more than two months. It was no wonder that she was so worried. Moreover, ever since Bai Yifeng left, that small tree had changed every day. The tree grew, and the island grew as well. At first, it had scared Long 'er quite a bit, thinking that there were some ghosts. As time passed, she got used to it.
