It’s a bit like a martial arts alliance in a martial arts novel, and I didn’t think it would exist in reality.
But Moon Man Bow shook his head and said, “They are afraid of me. The alliance does exist, it’s just that the position of alliance leader has been left vacant for a long time.”
“Why should there be an alliance master, isn’t it a mutually binding relationship between you?”
Yue Man Gong said, “You forget that the Yin family still has a large fortune to keep. Everyone is eye-catching, and anyone would like to take it for themselves. But any family that makes a move first will become the next Yin family and be attacked by the Martial Alliance in a group.”
“Really shameless for the sake of money. But you guys deserve it too, why do you have to take it all for yourselves, can’t you just grab it back and split it up.”
I really didn’t think that this gang of Jianghu people, who had a head and a face when they declared themselves, could do such shameless things.
He was the only one who would tell me these stories. If it were anyone else, they would have beaten me about the bush and not been so blunt.
Moon Full Bow said, “Who dares to lead this? There are calls in the Jianghu to elect an alliance master to lead this head. This alliance leader was not elected, but was set by an old man who was thought to be highly respected in the jianghu. But the old man died soon afterwards, but he spoke his last words and pa*sed them on to your mother, and the canvas on which your mother painted the thoughtless mountain was the same canvas on which the old man wrote his last words back then.”
I asked after a moment of silence, “Moon Full Bow, I saved your life just now, can I ask you for a favour.”
Yue Man Gong didn’t say anything and nodded his head, signalling that I could speak.
I suppressed the excitement that was rolling around in my heart and asked, “Tell me the truth, were my parents killed by Jiang Ming.”
“Not really.”
“But I heard you and Jiang Ming say with my own ears that he was the one who killed my mother.”
Yue Man Gong explained, “Your mother hid the message of the suicide note in the Wuxia Mountain, and then the entire Ji family moved to the Yandang Mountains to live in seclusion. Your mother and your father got married, and the thoughtless mountain was placed by He Zhitian in a very high security safe in the United States to be treasured, and the contents of the safe could only be removed if three things were present at the same time: his iris, fingerprints and signature. He was not exaggerating when he said that the painting had saved his life. He Zhitian owed money to loan sharks and was being chased by them, but he used the last of his money to put the painting in the safe. No one dared let him die again, and once he was dead, the painting would never be taken out.”
I always felt that there was something that didn’t make sense, for example, why did it have to be the person designated by this old man to be the martial arts master, plus why did these people trust my mother so much, in case she faked a suicide note, plus I really couldn’t believe how much wealth the Yin family had left behind to make these people so jealous.
“So what do you mean it wasn’t all killed by Jiang Ming? There were accomplices?”
Yes or no, what do you mean you’re not sure.
Moon Full Bow said, “Jiang Ming himself wasn’t even sure if the man was considered killed by him.”
I was thoroughly confused by what I had heard.
Yue Man Gong explained, “They were just trying to set up a small car accident to kidnap your mother, and your mother was the only one who knew the contents of the suicide note. Even if they couldn’t get the suicide note in the thoughtless mountain, they could still get her to pa*s it on falsely. But unexpectedly the car accident got out of hand. This matter was not planned by Jiang Ming alone, it was discussed by people from several other big families together, Jiang Ming was just a proposer.”
I fell into silence, not knowing what to say, anger and pain tumbling through my heart that for such a F*cked up reason my parents were gone.
I didn’t believe all of what Moon Man Bow had said, but I believed that what he had told me was close to part of the truth, and that his words didn’t contradict what I had learned.
“This thoughtless mountain is important to us, but it’s of no use to you.” Moon Fullbow said.
At night I fell asleep in Moon Man-bow’s high barn, and because of Moon Man-bow’s words, no one came to me, and Moon Man-bow went to my cabin on the ground floor.
The ship was still sailing in heavy seas, with no coordinates and no compa*s, so we had to wait at sea for help.
Luckily the ship was well stocked, so we couldn’t starve to death for a while, but I don’t know why, but I now wished that these animals would starve to death instead, I always felt that they were all the murderers of my mother.
They killed my parents, they ruined my life, and they ruined my aunt’s family.
It was all just about money.
After about two days of drifting, Baldy, who was on deck looking out for pa*sing ships, suddenly approached me and said he had made a major discovery.
He called me on deck and showed me the binoculars, and I was delighted when I saw them.
There was a small boat in the distance with a dying man on board, and this man was no other than He Zhitian.
“Isn’t that He Zhitian?”
I shouted, drawing everyone’s attention, and people from every level flocked to this side of the deck to look in the direction of He Zhitian’s boat.
It was this B*****d who had caused us to almost die in the sea two days before, and everyone wanted to pick his skin at this time.
He looked back at us and his face paled instantly. He could not have imagined that we were still alive and he grabbed his oar and slid as hard as he could.
Our boat had not been driven indiscriminately to save fuel, and at this time it stopped as if it could not move. He Zhitian probably thought that we had not even regained power yet, and paddled desperately.
I laughed, “Damn, this grandson wanted to hurt us and ended up with no good consequences himself. I reckon he didn’t plan for that storm either, probably the wind and waves made him lose his way, but this grandson is so lucky to have survived such a big wave.”
Baldy, wearing a duck-top hat, looked up in He Zhitian’s direction and asked me, “Aren’t you going to chase?”
I said, “Go on, let him run for a while. Don’t you think it’s cruel for us to go after such a small boat like him, let him run for a while.”
When He Zhitian was almost out of our sight, I ran to the captain’s cabin, started the ship and turned the direction to chase after him.
The noise of a cruise ship sailing in the sea is very loud, and He Zhitian was stunned at the sound, he didn’t expect us to move!
I was so close to He Zhitian that I stopped the ship again.
By this time both Moon Man Bow and Baldy were guarding the captain’s cabin watching me steer the ship and asking me what was wrong.
I crossed my legs and laughed, “Don’t worry, the sea is so boring, it’s hard to catch a fun one, I must have more trips.”
Sure enough, seeing that we had stopped, He Zhitian started paddling again.
He must have been exhausted from the past few days, but he couldn’t help it, if we caught him, we would definitely beat the Sh*t out of him, he had to run away.
