Chapter 34 Chapter Thirty-Four The Contest Between Will and Conscience

Fan Yunshen's family, young and old, slumped under the cliff of the plank road, chanting Bodhisattva's blessing in their mouths. He came in stride, fastened the package and said: Let's go!The sooner the better. In broad daylight, Miss Fan couldn't be carried on her back, Wen Xin helped her to walk, and walked slowly towards Jianzhou step by step. Just halfway through the four-mile-long Guishoujian Inn, more than 30 porters arrived behind, picking up bamboo baskets, and the goods in the baskets seemed to be quite heavy. Fan Yunshen walked behind with Nai's wife on his arm, and he first noticed the large group of porters behind him, thinking they were chasing soldiers, he couldn't help crying and panicking, his legs refused to obey orders.

Wen Xin had to stop, and said quietly: Rest your feet first, sit against the wall, everyone get together, no matter what happens, remember not to panic and get separated. The five of them huddled together, trembling uncontrollably. Wen Xin stood on the outside of them, kept sizing up the approaching porter, and when he was within thirty steps, he went forward to meet him, and shouted: "Stop, let me lift the cover!" The porters were taken aback, and immediately caused a commotion. The people in the lead saw that Wen Xin was carrying a sword, and his body was stained with blood, so they couldn't help shouting in panic: "It's a road robber, everyone, get ready."

The porters put down their burdens and hastily took off their shoulder poles to prepare. Wen Xin approached within ten steps, and said in a deep voice: I am also on my way, and I ran into a robber just now, so I don't trust you either. Therefore, you must check your goods and everyone, be obedient, no one will be hurt, otherwise it will be hard to say.People retreat, do you hear me? you have no right Whether you have power or not is my business, if you want to disobey orders.The next sword will kill you all one by one.he snapped, striding closer. The leading porter was still deeply wary and refused to obey orders. He swung his shoulder pole across and started to move, his expression of refusal was very obvious.

Clang!The long sword was unsheathed, and the clear sound was piercing. The faces of the porters changed drastically, and they retreated in unison.After checking, no one has hidden weapons. Wen Xin breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Okay, it's unavoidable to disturb everyone, please forgive me."You can go, one by one. He stood in front of the young and old of the Fan family with his sword.At the beginning, the first porter Tao was called to pass the burden. They walked behind the porter, Wen Xin looked heavy-hearted, he never spoke, his brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about a big matter and couldn't let it go.

Miss Fan felt it, and asked uneasily: "Brother Wen, you are very disturbed. Could it be that we are not out of danger yet?" He smiled faintly and murmured: Unless we reach Xi'an, we will not be able to escape the danger. God!They dare to keep chasing, not afraid of the government along the way?the girl asked in horror. A group of gangsters from the Wulong Gang are not robbers, but they are a group of lawless underworld gangsters. These people do all kinds of crimes in threes and fours, and they are haunted by ghosts.In the group of porters just now, no one can guarantee whether there are members of the Five Dragons Gang among them.

oops!That The terrible thing is that this is a road for traffic, and tourists cannot be prohibited from coming and going, and we have to pay attention at any time from now on. After finally passing the plank road, there is a hillside with lush forests in front.Wen Xin put down the girl and said to his uncle and nephew Fan Yunshen: Let's rest and look for dead branches nearby. Fan Yunshen was puzzled, since he wanted to rest, why did he pick up dead branches?Ask: Nephew Wenxian, what is the use of dead branches? There is only one way to stop them from chasing.Wen Xin said every word with a cold expression.

you mean Set fire to this section of plank road.He said grimly. Fan Yunshen was greatly shocked, and said in amazement: God!Burn the plank road. He said grimly: When Liu Bang entered Bashu, if he didn't burn the plank road, how could he unify the world in the future?I am afraid that the body has been divided by the overlord of Chu long ago. Fan Yunshen gasped and said: How can that be? He asked in a deep voice: Do you want to live? Isn't this nonsense?If you don't want to live, you don't need to run for your life so hard. It's better to die than to live badly. There are not many people in the world who really don't want to live. After all, the world is much cuter than the unknowable underworld.

Fan Yun sighed deeply, and said in a disturbed state: The Qinchuan road is rugged and difficult, and since ancient times, no one has known that the Shu road is difficult.More than a hundred plank roads have been in disrepair for a long time, and travel is often cut off.Look, there are many parts of this plank road that are newly built. Fan Kaiping interjected: This road has been blocked for five years, Master Li of Zhizhou dispatched workers to rebuild the plank road, and it took three full years to complete the repair. Not only the plank road in Jianzhou has been completely repaired, but also the roads that are prone to collapse are all built with big stones.

look!The cypress trees on both sides of the road were planted according to Mr. Li's regulations. Thousands of cypress trees were planted, and they have grown to more than ten feet in the past two years. From Jiange to Qiqu Mountain in Zitong, hundreds of thousands of cypress trees are a spectacle, which came from the hand of Zhizhou Li Bi. But later generations called these cypresses Zhang Fei cypress or General cypress, saying that they were planted by Zhang Fei when he was building the plank road in the Three Kingdoms period, so they spread rumors. No one knows about Li Bi, but Mang Zhang Fei.

Maybe it is because of the sages, maybe it is under the guise of Zhang Fei to prevent the tourists from destroying these cypress trees, because General Zhang has become a god, who dare not love the god's hand? As for Li Bi, what is a small magistrate?Who knows how old he is? Wen Xin smiled coldly, dragged a few dead trees, threw them on the plank road, and said: The plank road has been burned, and it can be rebuilt. Our lives are ruined, and we will never get them back.In order to save my life, I will not hesitate even if I burn down all the plank roads hundreds of miles away. Fan Yun looked up to the sky and inhaled a long breath, and said sadly: In this way, I don't know how many trips will be missed.When it is rebuilt in the future, I don't know how many people will be killed or injured. I have committed a lot of crimes.Nephew Wen Xian, I believe that you can go far and fly high alone, and no one can stop you.

did you mean I would like to stay. You want to stay? Yes.Fan Yunshen said firmly. Wen Xin was taken aback.After a long time, he asked seriously: Are you willing to be chased and killed by them? Those who are unwilling to escape from the dungeon, now I really understand their feelings, alas, Fan Yunshen said with a sigh. Fan Kaiping said sadly, "Second Uncle, let's stay here." Wen Xin glanced at everyone, and the three female relatives avoided his gaze.Obviously, they took men's opinions as their opinions and accepted their fate. He snorted and said displeasedly: Okay, you stay here!I'm leaving. I wish you peace.Miss Fan said harshly. He picked up the package and strode away.Muttered: Too stupid, too stupid. A hundred steps away, he slowed down, turned his head and stopped to look back. Five pairs of eyes stared at him. Although they were far apart, he could still feel the sadness, despair, helplessness, and tragic emotions in their eyes. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and took another step, but this time, his steps were not stable. Wen Xin took dozens of steps forward, but paused once.Finally, he stopped and turned around slowly. Behind him, the five members of the Fan family could no longer be seen clearly, and the tree shadows had blocked his sight. Why are they?he asked himself. He was dazed, confused, and distraught. For him, everything should be based on himself. The strict training he received in the past had only one purpose, that is to protect himself and eliminate all people and things that hinder him without hesitation.Survive, this is the most important thing, no matter the price, no matter what. There is no right and wrong, nothing to do with morality, and no emotions involved.There is no crime.Therefore, he became a man with a hard heart, only will and no emotion. However, he has escaped for a long time and experienced many dangers. In his resurrection, right and wrong can be distinguished from black to black. He is not a cold-blooded pervert, and his conscience cannot be wiped out by cruel tempering. But his conscience needs to be guided and induced by external forces. If it is suppressed for too long, spontaneity is impossible. There was a battle between heaven and man in his heart, and he lost ground. The five poor fellows of the Fan family huddled together and wept to die. Suddenly, Miss Fan became alert, raised her head and turned around. Across the road, sat Wen Xin with a heavy face. She was startled, and blurted out: Brother Wen, you don't want to leave. He said with frost on his face: Don't go. The girl wiped her tears and walked towards him, saying: Brother Wen, we appreciate your kindness, but you still less nonsense!he said impatiently. Brother Wen, you I want to kill him here and let his blood flow like a river. oh!them They can't do it unless I'm dead.If you have three long and two short, the Five Dragons will pay a thousand times the heavy price.He said murderously. Miss Fan sat down beside him.Said quietly: Brother Wen, forgive my father, he is a I know, he's a stubborn good guy. well!Dad is a bit stubborn, but he is also a good person. So I don't want to abandon him. The girl sighed faintly, and said with tears in her eyes: My father and mother only gave birth to me a useless daughter, and his old man has great expectations of you expect me?No kidding, I'm a rootless ronin. Brother Wen, didn't you plan to take root in the fallen leaves of Wulian Post? I thought so, but now it's different. you Do you know why I want to live in this sparsely populated mountain area? Can you tell me? Do you know the allusion of the saying "Doves Occupy Magpies' Nests"? This allusion comes from the "Book of Songs" I'm not referring to allusions, but facts, don't get me wrong.Magpie is good at building nests, if it gives up, no matter what the reason is, it will never return to the old nest in the future. Brother Wen, I don't understand the meaning of your words. It's best not to understand.I regard this area as an abandoned magpie's nest, and think that the old magpie will never return to the old place.So let my stray dove be my comfort zone.However, after this incident, the news spread, so the magpie must return to the old nest to look for me, and I must not be able to hide. oh!Brother Wen, you mean I didn't say anything, I didn't hear anything, understand?oh!Here they come! Three girls with swords are flying towards them.
