Chapter 20: Bright Camel
It was noon, and the sun was high in the sky. Lin Pingzhi galloped his horse and came to the small restaurant to rein in the reins. This restaurant was actually not a shop. It was just a few straw shacks built on the side of the road. Under the shack, there were a few tables for passersby to drink a few mouthfuls of coarse tea and eat some simple meals.
Looking up, he saw Yu Canghai and his two disciples from the Qingcheng Monastery and Linghu Chong and the others from the Heng Mountain Sect sitting on their respective sides under the straw shed. Seeing him arrive, the people of the Qingcheng Monastery were naturally shocked and angry, but the people of the Heng Mountain Sect were not necessarily happy.
In response, Lin Pingzhi sneered and jumped off the horse's back. He patted the horse's buttocks and let the horse walk away to eat the grass. He walked into the straw shed and saw that there were two empty tables in the shed. He slowly came to one of the tables and sat down. He raised his hand and gently stroked the hair that hung down in front of his forehead. He turned to Ling Huchong and said,"Hello, Brother Linghu!"
"You... Hello!"
Linghu Chong looked at Lin Pingzhi, who was wearing a black robe with wide sleeves. His long hair was scattered behind his back. There was an indescribable evil aura between his handsome face, which made him very afraid.
Lin Pingzhi turned his head and saw a disciple of the Green City carrying a pot of tea and pouring tea for Yu Canghai. He couldn't help but smile and say,"You must be Renhao, right? You were part of the murder at Fu Wei Bodyguard Agency back then. So, even if you turn into ashes, I will still remember you!”
"Bang!"
Yu Renhao placed the teapot on the table and turned around. He placed his hand on the hilt of his sword and took two steps back."I am Yu Renhao, what are you going to do?”His voice was rough, but his tone was trembling. His face was ashen, and it was obvious that he feared Lin Pingzhi.
"Heroes, heroes, the Four Beauties of Qingcheng!" Lin Laizhi smiled. You're ranked third, but in my opinion, you don't even have the spirit of a hero. How ridiculous, ridiculous!”
" Heroes and heroes, the Four Prodigies of Qingcheng " referred to the four strongest disciples of Qingcheng Monastery, Hou Renying, Hong Renxiong, Yu Renhao, and Luo Renjie. Among them, Luo Renjie had been killed by Linghu Chong in Jiangnan's Drunken Immortal Restaurant, and Hou Renying had been killed by Lin Pingzhi at the foot of Mount Song a few days ago. The remaining two were right in front of him.
Lin Pingzhi laughed coldly and said,""That Brother Linghu once said,'Black bears, wild boars, and the four beasts of Qingcheng.' If it were me, he would have thought highly of you by comparing you to beasts.”
"You…"
Facing Lin Pingzhi's continuous ridicule, Yu Renhao was afraid and angry. His face turned even paler. He pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, but he didn't pull it out.
At this moment, the sound of hooves came from the east. A fast horse galloped over and stopped in front of the straw shed. When everyone turned around to look, someone could not help but let out a soft gasp.
"It's Northern Frontier's Ming Camel Wood Peak. Why is he here?”
Linghu Chong had seen Mugao Peak before, so he recognized the fat hunchback on the horse at a glance. However, he did not expect him to appear here.
Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but feel overjoyed. He wanted to avenge his original body. Yu Canghai was the leader of the Qingcheng Sect, and he had a big family and business. It was easy to find him. However, Mu Gao Feng was different. He was a lone traveler and had always been alone. His whereabouts were uncertain. Even if Lin Pingzhi had mastered peerless martial arts, if he couldn't even find him, how could he take revenge?
He had originally planned to wait until he killed Yu Canghai before releasing the news of the Evil Repelling Sword Technique to see if he could lure Mu Gao Feng over. However, he did not expect that before he could do anything, Mu Gao Feng would actually come knocking on his door.
This was great news!
Immediately, he shouted,"Are you the Northern Frontier Ming Camel Wood Peak? Some people here say that your kung fu is very ordinary. What do you think?”
Most martial arts experts were very confident in their own martial arts. How could they allow others to say that? Mu Gao Feng was no exception. Hearing Lin Pingzhi's words, he immediately dismounted and entered the straw shed. Seeing Lin Pingzhi sitting alone at a table, he couldn't help but ask,""Who are you?"
Although the two had met at Liu Zhengfeng's house in Mount Heng, the original Lin Pingzhi had pretended to be a hunchback with plasters all over his face. He was completely different from Lin Pingzhi now. Later, although he knew that the original Lin Pingzhi was pretending to be a hunchback, he had never seen the original Lin Pingzhi's true face. That was why they had not met each other yet.
"Why are you asking me?"
"I'm not the one who said your kung fu is mediocre," Lin Pingzhi said with a smile.”
"Hmm?"
"If that's the case, then tell me, who said that?" Mu Gao Feng asked in a deep voice.”
Lin Pingzhi gently stroked the hair in front of his forehead, stretched out his hand, and pointed at Yu Canghai. He said,"It's this Monastery Master Yu of the Qingcheng Monastery. Recently, he saw an exquisite sword technique. It's the best sword technique in the world. It seems to be called... Evil Repelling Swordsmanship."
" Evil Repelling Swordsmanship?!"
Hearing this, Mu Gao Feng immediately became spirited. He immediately glanced at Yu Canghai, only to see that he was holding a teacup in his hand and was in a daze. He seemed to have turned a deaf ear to Lin Pingzhi's words and said,"Faction Head Yu, congratulations on seeing the Evil Repelling Sword Technique. However, there are some real and some fake sword techniques. I don't know if what you saw was real or fake.”
"Of course it's true."
"To tell you the truth, not only did I see it, I also saw it from the beginning to the end, every move."”
Hearing this, Mu Gao Feng was really surprised and happy. He quickly walked forward and sat at Yu Canghai's table, saying,"I heard that this sword manual was given to Yue Buqun of the Huashan Sect, how did you see it?”
"I didn't see the sword manual, but I did see the person who used this sword technique."”
"I see."
Mu Gao Feng said," I wonder if you can tell me who the person who used the Evil Repelling Sword Art is. I'm not talented, but I'd like to see this sword art."”
"To tell you the truth," Yu Canghai chuckled,"the person who used the Evil Repelling Sword Art is far away but right in front of me."”
"Oh? Is that so?"
Mu Gao Feng turned his head around doubtfully and looked around the entire straw shed. However, he saw that other than the people from the Qingcheng Sect, there were only the people from the Heng Mountain Sect and…It was the black-robed young man who had lured him in earlier.
"Far away in the horizon, right in front of us?"
He pondered over Yu Canghai's words and repeated them twice. As if he had finally figured something out, he immediately shouted at Lin Pingzhi,"Are you the one who knows the Evil-Repelling Swordsmanship?”
"Not bad."
Lin Pingzhi didn't hide anything. He nodded and smiled,""I'm the person that Temple Head Yu mentioned who knows the Evil-warding Sword Art. Why? Are you interested in the Evil-warding Sword Art?”
"That's right."
Mu Gao Feng laughed out loud." It's said in Jianghu that the Evil-warding Sword Art is the best sword art in the world. Now that I have the chance, of course I want to see it."”
"That's easy."
" You just need to kneel on the ground, kowtow to me three times, and call me grandpa," Lin Pingzhi said with a smile." I'll naturally show you every move of the Evil-warding Sword Technique. I'll show you to your heart's content."”
"You!"
Hearing this, Mu Gao Feng was angry at first, but he quickly thought of something and laughed,"So it's you. That day at Liu Zhengfeng's house in Mount Heng, you pretended to be a hunchback and kowtowed to me, shouting 'grandpa', desperately wanting me to take you as my disciple and teach you martial arts. But grandpa refused, so you joined Old Yue's tutelage. What, now that you've mastered the Evil-Repelling Sword Art passed down in the family, do you think you can act presumptuously in front of your grandpa?”
"Impudent?"
Lin Pingzhi's face darkened, and his eyes were filled with cold killing intent. In an instant, the air seemed to have frozen. Two eyes that seemed to be corporeal stared straight at Mu Gao Feng."You're wrong. Today, I'm not going to be impudent in front of you, but I'm going to ask you to step down! Earth! Prison!"
