Chapter 87 Death to me
"Tianshi!Tianshi!" Ji Ran shouted at Du Huanfeng's back lying on his side, but Du Huanfeng did not move and did not respond.
Ji Ran's heart sank... It's not that it's too late.
He rushed towards the monster with horns in front of him angrily, trying to drive him away from Du Xuanfeng's side. However, the long sword he swung was slightly bent by the other party and broke it into several pieces.
Ji Ran immediately abandoned the sword and fought with Jia Gu Heng with bare hands.
Jia Guheng looked at Ji Ran with interest and carefully controlled the force in his hand, "...Who is he you? Father? Uncle? What is your name?"
Ji Ran did not answer. After hitting Jia Guheng for more than ten steps, he suddenly retreated and rushed to Du Xuanfeng's side to check his injuries.
Jiaguheng squatted down not far away and quietly looked at Ji Ran and Du Huanfeng.
"Tianshi...Tianshi!"
Du Huanfeng opened his eyes with some difficulty when he heard this voice.
However, as soon as he saw Ji Ran, he closed his eyes again with headaches.
——Why is this kid back?
Du Huanfeng frowned, "Go away..."
He wanted to say something, but another mouthful of blood surged up. The strong smell of blood made Ji Ran furious. He gritted his teeth and stood up again to look at Jiaguheng.
The person in front of him was undoubtedly a demon, but there was only a little demonic aura on his forehead.
Ji Ran suddenly thought of something. His eyes closed slightly and he spoke with some confidence, "Is the tragedy on the North Mountain Road of Luoyang City a few days ago yours?"
"Not bad." Jia Guheng clenched his fist with his left hand and supported his cheek, "It's me."
Seeing the other party's calm and gentle appearance, Ji Ran's anger made him unable to control himself, "Beast--"
Jia Guheng yawned and responded to Ji Ran's fists and feet.
He accidentally fought back a little harder in the several flaws exposed by the other party. After a few rounds, Ji Ran's ribs broke and he fell on the mud nearby.
Jia Guheng sighed, he stood up and picked up the steel knife he had thrown away before, and then slowly walked to Ji Ran.
The sharp blade pressed against Ji Ran's neck, and there was immediately a blood mark.
"Is he your father?" Jia Guheng asked.
Ji Ran sneered, "I am your father--"
Jia Gu Heng stood up on the back of the knife, slapped Ji Ran in the face, and threw him to the ground.
"Answer my question well," Jia Guheng whispered, "If you answered it to my heart, I might consider saving him a life--I'll ask you again, who is he?"
Ji Ran covered his injured chest and abdomen and slowly clenched his teeth.
“…He is my mentor.”
In an instant, Jiaguheng felt something pressing towards him.
It is so huge, so vast, and so endless, and has no end.
"You are here... to save him." Jia Guheng whispered, as if he was asking questions, and as if he was muttering to himself.
Ji Ran did not answer, and his eyes shot straight at the monster in front of him, "It's also here to catch you and kill you-"
"Subduing the law?" Jia Guheng raised an eyebrow, "What method is to subduing the law?"
Ji Ran glared, "You have hurt so many innocent lives on the mountain road-why?"
"No, I just don't like it anymore." Jia Guheng replied, "I think they are noisy."
"Noisy?" Ji Ran forced himself to stand up again, "For this reason... you actually committed such cruel evil deeds-"
Jia Gu Heng frowned slightly, and he swept Ji Ran's ankle with the back of the knife again, overturning him to the ground.
"You have heard of this saying in the world, " "The Butcher Cuts the Ox". Have you heard of it?"
Ji Ran gasped in pain.
Jia Gu Heng said softly, "'I have been shaving thousands of oxes for 19 years, but the blade is like a new one in the gust' - This kitchen chef has been very skilled in slaughtering cattle. After nineteen years of using a knife, the edge of the knife is still as sharpened from a whetstone.
"How many cows will he kill in his life to practice such a skill? But is he cruel about the skills of killing cows?
"No, he stood up with a knife, looked around, and was full of confidence. He looked leisurely and satisfied. People in the world praised him - did no one in this world realize the cruelty?"
Jia Guheng shook his head, "No, of course you realize it."
"'A gentleman is a beast. When he sees his life, he cannot bear to die; when he hears his sound, he cannot bear to eat his meat. Therefore, a gentleman stays away from the kitchen.' - Do you know the reason why a gentleman stays away from the kitchen to preserve his compassion, but isn't he still eating meat with peace of mind?
"I have seen a cooked fish in Jiangnan who eats it alive. When the fish is alive, fill the fish with white wine, then pinch the fish's head, scrape the scales quickly, remove the organs, and pour oil on the hotpot. When the fish is brought up, its body is already ripe, but the fish's mouth is still open and closed. People are surprised and flock to it.
"I kill someone with one knife. I will not leave any unnecessary pain for the prey I have chosen, nor will I show off my knife skills. Do you remember how much chicken, duck, fish and meat you have eaten until now?"
Ji Ran was stunned for a moment.
Jia Guheng smiled and said, "I remember. I remember every person I have killed clearly - if I kill people, it is cruel, then wouldn't it be even more cruel when you kill pigs and sheep, and suck bones and marrow?
"Or what you call mercy will only be used on the same kind of person, and other misery that happens to other creatures can be avoided - then I am not your kind of person, so I can use the same cruelty to deal with you... You said, right?
"I scolded others for being 'cruel', but I couldn't see the crime I committed at all... How arrogant." Jia Gu Heng smiled, "Arrogant, but I don't know..."
He suddenly raised the knife high.
"Go to the world after death and think about this problem-"
For a moment, Ji Ran felt the majestic murderous aura in front of him.
However, the next moment, Du Xuanfeng and his golden whisk blocked Ji Ran.
Whether it was Jiaguheng or Ji Ran, it was obvious that Du Shufeng was at the end of his strength at this time.
His golden whisk was pressed against Jia Guheng's knife, but his arms and entire upper body were firmly suppressed.
"I said I didn't feel good about you from the beginning..." Du Huanfeng sneered and looked at the person in front of him, "Yes, people are arrogant and stupid, they are scolding others while not seeing their own crimes-
"You put yourself in the position of heaven and look down on all living beings, and decide the life and death of all things according to your preferences. What is the difference between your arrogance and your arrogance towards all things?"
Jia Guheng frowned, and Du Kangfeng's words seemed to hit his heart with a heavy hammer.
Suddenly, an unforeseen irritability swept over, and everything in front of him, whether it was this young man who sacrificed his life to save his master or this Tianshi master who was named, made him lose interest.
Jia Guheng mercilessly hit Du Kuangfeng's golden whisk with a blade. The latter shattered in response to the sound, and Du Kuangfeng fell heavily.
He put the knife across Du Huanfeng's neck, just as he had been crossing the neck of every person he had killed.
"I'll ask you a question..."
Jia Guheng looked at this extremely stubborn opponent expressionlessly.
"Master Du Tian, are you afraid of death?"
Du Huanfeng laughed dryly twice, and he looked straight into Jia Guheng's eyes, every word was loud and loud—
