Legend of Sword and Dragon Slaying

Cheng Pingan is dead. He died in the hands of his "son" whom he had raised for nineteen years. Before he died, he smiled as warmly as jade, as if he was teaching someone to write the last word. No one in the world hates him more than Gu Diao Si - a false saint who is duplicitous, betrays his secret party, has an affair with his enemy's mother, and has raised himself as a key for nineteen years. When Gu Diao Si pierced his lungs with his own hands, he thought it was the end. Then he opened the papers under the bed board. The birth certificate reads: Father, Cheng Pingan. Mother, Ning Yao. "Key" is the truth. "Son" is also true. But every word the devil said before he died was lying to him - including the phrase "I hate you." The only thing he didn't lie to was to tell him to "run quickly". What are you running for? Where to run? Gu Diao Si started to run. I ran past my mother who had been silent for nineteen years in Tangier's used bookstore, I ran past the row of petri dishes containing living soul fires underground in Cambodia, I ran past the stone wall that had been tampered with for thousands of years at the bottom of the sea, and I ran past the dead end of the thousand-year chess game between saints. He ran into a chess game in which everyone was lying to everyone - his adoptive father was a liar, his mentor was the executioner, the principal was the informant, and even history itself... And he himself was the only card in the game that had not been revealed.
