The Legend of the Condor Heroes: I became one of the Five Great Masters by drawing cards
Chapter 240 "Sacrifice for Justice"
Zhao Qiansun's neck stiffened. "What does it have to do with you whether Xiaojuan and I are doing well?"
"So it was you!" Granny Tan echoed, "Brother, what you said is indeed true. This is really the scheme of that treacherous Qiao Feng!"
Gu Ping'an didn't get angry either, and said calmly: "Why are you two so excited? I came here today just to ask a few questions."
Granny Tan snorted coldly and said, "You and Qiao Feng are in cahoots, what else is there to ask? I'll kill you or chop you up, it's all up to you!"
"Xiaojuan is right! You two are a Khitan thief, one a traitor, the other an accomplice. Don't even think about getting a single word out of us!"
"You two are both well-known seniors in the martial arts world. I didn't expect you to be so confused about right and wrong. This is truly disappointing to me."
Zhao Qiansun was a simple person to begin with, and when provoked by his words, he immediately started cursing.
"What a little thief! Back in Wuxi Xingzilin, if you hadn't misled the crowd and defended Qiao Feng, how could we have spared that Khitan bastard's life? He would have led to the deaths of the Qiao couple and Shaolin Master Xuanku."
"You keep saying that my eldest brother murdered his adoptive parents and betrayed his teachers and ancestors, but did you witness it with your own eyes? Or do you simply deem him guilty because of his bloodline?"
Although Gu Ping'an said this to Zhao Qiansun, every word fell on Qiao Feng's heart.
"You just follow the crowd and bark at shadows. To say you can't distinguish right from wrong is to put it mildly."
Among the people who were invited to the apricot forest by Elder Xu, the one who had the best impression of Qiao Feng was undoubtedly Granny Tan.
Compared with Xuan Ci, Shan Zheng, Master Zhiguang and others, she did not take the matter of bloodline so seriously. When she heard Gu Ping'an's question, she seemed to be really touched.
"That traitor Qiao Feng, in order to conceal his own background, would do anything..."
Zhao Qiansun naturally didn't want to hear a word he said, and continued angrily, but before he could finish his words, he heard a light "swish" sound, and a stone flew through the air and hit the Futu point on the side of his neck.
Gu Ping'an knew that he was no different from the group of people led by Quick Knife Qi Liu, and no matter how much he talked, he would not change his mind. So he simply stopped talking nonsense and let him sleep first.
"What did you do to him?!"
Seeing Zhao Qiansun fall limply to the ground, Mrs. Tan couldn't help but feel anxious. However, her acupoints were restricted at the moment and she couldn't move. She could only glare at Gu Ping'an and question him sharply.
"Don't worry, he won't die. I just want him to be quiet for a while." Gu Ping'an said calmly, "I don't expect you two to be able to distinguish right from wrong today. Senior, just tell me the identity of the 'leader'."
At this moment, Mrs. Tan was also confused and unable to make a decision. On the one hand, she didn't want him to lose his life, but on the other hand, she couldn't ruin his heroic act of sacrificing his life for justice.
She had complicated feelings towards Zhao Qiansun. She just felt that he had been deeply loyal to her for the past ten years, and that she had really let him down by marrying Mr. Tan in a fit of anger.
He never made clear what he wanted, and now he begged me to conceal my identity as the leader. This was the first time in decades.
"Young Master Gu, you've gone to so much trouble to find that leader. I'm sure it was Qiao Feng's instruction, right? My senior brother would rather die than betray his benefactor. How could I possibly ruin his righteous act?"
Qiao Feng finally found an opportunity to speak: "I am Qiao Feng. If you don't tell me, not only will both of your lives be in danger, but you will also be doomed to disgrace after death."
"Boss Qiao, today's matter is up to you, both the good and the evil. My brother and I have a clear conscience, as can be seen by the heavens and the earth. I'm sorry I can't tell you what you want to know."
Although Granny Tan spoke politely, her words were resolute, and it was obvious that she had made up her mind.
"Everyone in the martial arts world believes that my eldest brother went to the trouble of killing his adoptive parents and mentor in order to conceal his origins. But who in the martial arts world doesn't know that he carries Khitan blood?"
Gu Pingan spoke patiently, "He is, after all, the leader of the Beggars' Sect. While he rose to fame through his martial arts, he wouldn't do something as deceitful as this. Senior, can't you tell the difference between truth and falsehood?"
Mrs. Tan's heart moved slightly, and she had already sensed something strange, but when she thought of the tone and expression of Zhao Qiansun when he begged her just now, she couldn't help but feel a tightness in her chest.
"There's no point in talking any more, just get started."
After she finished speaking, she simply closed her eyes and said nothing more.
Gu Ping'an sighed softly, flicked out a stone with his finger, and pressed her Futu acupoint.
"brother."
Just as Qiao Feng was about to speak, he saw Gu Ping'an shook his head again, glanced outside the boat, and pointed at his ear.
Beware that walls have ears.
After all, he was once the leader of the largest gang in the Central Plains martial arts world. Naturally, Qiao Feng understood what he meant at a glance and nodded slightly.
Gu Ping'an guessed that Xiao Yuanshan was already nearby, so he used the Dragon Capturing Technique to take the jade hairpin from Tan Po's head, and then pointed in the direction of Weihui City.
Seeing Qiao Feng nod, he signaled the other party to stay on the boat to prevent anyone from coming.
Qiao Feng suddenly recalled all the schemes he had been subjected to along the way. Whether it was his adoptive parents or his master, he always "happened" to catch up with them. It was obvious that someone had calculated his movements and did it on purpose.
He hadn't had time to think about it before, but when Gu Ping'an reminded him, he reacted immediately.
If he had just left the unconscious Tan Po and Zhao Qiansun here as he did before, when he came back with Tan Gong, there would probably be only two corpses left.
When Gu Ping'an and the other two boarded the boat, Xiao Yuanshan had not arrived yet, and Mu Nianci had not spoken a word from beginning to end. This was a perfect time for her to pretend to be Qiao Feng.
After the two left, Xiao Yuanshan came in to silence them and happened to bump into the real Qiao Feng.
Mu Nianci was already dressed up as an ordinary martial arts man today, and his height and build were similar to the disguised Qiao Feng. With a slight modification to his face and the addition of a mustache, they were about 80% similar.
They had simple materials with them, and in just half a cup of tea, the two of them were out of the cabin, using their lightness skills to head straight towards Weihui City.
After walking two or three miles along the official road and making a small circle to confirm that no one was following him, Gu Ping'an stopped.
"Almost done, let's go back."
Just as the two of them got off the boat, a figure appeared from behind a thick willow tree by the river, watched them go away, and then flashed to the side of the boat.
This man was bald, wearing black clothes and a black cloth covering his face. His eyes were 70% to 80% similar to Qiao Feng's. Who else could it be but Xiao Yuanshan?
He did not rush in. He listened carefully for a long time to make sure there was no movement in the cabin before jumping into the cabin.
After being reminded by Gu Ping'an, Qiao Feng was well prepared. When he saw someone breaking in, he raised his hand and slapped the person without saying a word.
Xiao Yuanshan saw Gu Ping'an and "Qiao Feng" go away just now, and he never thought that there was an ambush in the cabin.
However, he had been hiding in Shaolin for thirty years and had developed a cautious character. When the wind sounded by his ears, he barely hesitated and raised his palm to greet it. (End of this chapter)
