Ding Fan stood outside the door and listened for a long time, and the more he listened, the more nervous he became.

To be honest, Zhang Datou is a person, he still has a little good impression, he is simple, he doesn't have so many fancy intestines, and he has craftsmanship in his hands, in fact, it is not a problem to support himself or his family.

But now the young man sitting in front of him obviously made him a little moved when he talked to him, Ding Fan was very conflicted at this time, and he didn't know if he should go in at this time.

He knew very well that once he walked in, Zhang Datou would definitely not go with this person, and when he saw him outside, Zhang Datou would immediately understand that the two of them would not be able to run no matter what.

But if Ding Fan waited outside quietly, he really couldn't guarantee it.

There is no sense of existence in a city, and the sense of belonging and loneliness are a person's worst enemies.

And it just so happened that at this point, it was also the most important problem that Zhang Datou should face, so when he faced the question of the man in front of him, his heart began to waver.

At this time, he didn't remember what he had promised Ding Fan before, but he was a little flustered in his heart.

But I have to say that the young man in front of him really knows him, and he broke through his last defense in one sentence.

"Hey, forget it!" Zhang Datou was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head, and said in a very silent voice: "This era has eliminated me, and the outside world no longer belongs to me." ”

"In the future, it will be enough for me to stay in this small courtyard, and there will be no extra extravagance for a long time!"

"The knife is broken, and like me, it's a piece of waste. ”

"The police have already looked for me, I'm sorry, I told the police about you. ”

As soon as he said this, Ding Fan outside the door suddenly determined, and the two people sitting opposite each other in the courtyard, one was Zhang Datou, and the other was the Hu Dekai he had been tracking.

This kid really came here, and before he left Pengcheng, he really wanted to come and see his old friend.

For this friend, he still can't give up in his heart, maybe this is the only person he feels closer to in the past ten years, except for his brother, from a certain level, he regards Zhang Datou as his friend, as his own relatives, and even as his brother.

"Hmph, I already knew, or from the beginning, I thought of it!" Hu Dekai didn't seem surprised, he seemed to have known about Zhang Datou's betrayal of him, and his tone was unusually flat: "You have been in, so the edges and corners on your body have long been smoothed, once the police find you, you will definitely tell you about it." ”

"It's just something I expected, and I don't care anyway!"

"I don't mind that you betrayed me, and I don't even mind that the police investigate me. ”

"Do you know why?"

thought that if Hu Dekai knew about this, he would definitely scold himself hysterically.

Unexpectedly, Hu Dekai was unusually calm, and surprisingly didn't say anything serious to him, as if he had known that this would be the result.

"Do you know why I don't mind what you point out to me?" Hu Dekai stood up little by little, propped his hands on the table, and drove in step by step, his voice gradually deepened, and he whispered: " Because those policemen can't do anything about me at all, they are looking for me everywhere now, and I can still calmly come to you, they are not a threat to me, I can guess every step of these policemen, I can know any step, as if they went to my house today, they must make a choice, and I am here with you now, which means that my guess is not wrong, they are now doing what I think, why should I be afraid of them?"

"On the contrary, it is not me who needs to run to the person now, but you who are of no use at all. ”

"You said that we are all friends, so I am willing to help you, and now as long as you go with me, I will guarantee that nothing will happen to you, and I will not embarrass you!"

"The police's brains can't play with me at all, they want to arrest me, Jane is a joke, I really don't know why you should be afraid of them?"

"Come with me, I promise you won't regret it, we're brothers, and I don't want to leave you here alone. ”

I have to say that Hu Dekai is simply a natural orator, and he was originally very determined, but now he obviously has a new plan.

But when he thought of Ding Fan, the wine bowl in his hand trembled, so he simply poured down the liquor in a sip, looked at the surrounding grass and trees, and looked at the small workshop.

Zhang Datouda has too much fear of loneliness in his heart, and he is also full of guilt for Hu Dekai.

"I'm afraid that the policeman named Ding Fan is not easy to deal with!" Zhang Datou, who had not made a decision after thinking about it, picked up the big man on the table, and poured a large sip of liquor into his mouth, as if he had something to say, but he was still a little unable to say it for a while: "I fought with him, I thought I still had a good chance of winning, but the final result, do you know what it is?"

Zhang Datou stood up, he seemed to have drunk a little too much, and he almost fell to the ground after taking two steps.

Still walked over to the edge of the haystack from the previous time, reached out and pulled out a knife inside.

It's just that the last time I saw this knife, it was still a long knife that was so bright that it was piercing, but at this time the knife was broken.

Looking at this knife, Zhang Datou's face was very ugly, and he held the knife between his hands, as if holding his own awe-inspiring god.

"See, this is a knife that I have tempered all my life, just like my life, my backbone!" Zhang Datou put the knife on the table a little excitedly, and said with tears in the corners of his eyes: "But now it is broken, it has become a broken waste knife, and it is useless now." ”

"Just like me, I'm a waste now, what's the use of me just going with you?"

"If you haven't been in, you'll never understand, and I didn't understand it before, until I went in and met my master, and I didn't understand what a caged bird is. ”

Zhang Datou's master, Ding Fan had investigated before, named Lu Shouting, a martial artist of the 28th Classic, and even made a lot of fame outside in his early years.

It's a pity that martial arts have declined, and with this strength, that is, they can barely eat.

When people reach middle age, they don't know why, they swallow their anger for more than ten years, and once they didn't suppress their anger and fight unevenly, they fought seventeen people alone, holding long knives and fighting on the long street.

The heavy rain poured all night, but it failed to wash away the bloody gas on the long street.

The rule of law is a society, not the kind of happy time that used to be, killing people will eventually have to pay the price.

Although there was nothing good about the person who died under his knife, he broke the law after all, and he himself knew that he had broken the law, so he did not run away at night, but went to the police station to turn himself in.

This incident was also a sensation back then, and the people he killed were all well-known local gangsters, and that battle could be regarded as bloody, and on the day he was tried, many people wrote a petition for him, hoping that the court could be extrajudicially gracious.

If you kill someone, you always have to pay a price, and the country's legislation will not deviate for anyone or anything, and finally sentence you to death with a three-year reprieve.

Zhang Datou was locked in the same cell with him back then, and became the last disciple of Lu Shouting, teaching him the Qi family's knife technique.

But Lu Shouting didn't want him to use it, he just didn't want the things of the ancestors to break in his hands.

Zhang Datou has practiced the knife for more than ten years, but he has never used this knife, and on the day he fought against Ding Fan, it was the first time he used it, and it was also the last time he used it.

His master said that those who practice knives must use the knife as their backbone in this life, and if the knife is broken, the backbone will be broken.

He remembered this sentence for a lifetime, that day he was defeated by Ding Fan, and it was also that day that he broke the knife with his own hands.

"I admit it, the knife is also in front of you, don't waste time on me, you can do it to me now!" Zhang Datou didn't know what he remembered, and said very calmly: "I have never betrayed anyone else in my life, you are my only friend, I betrayed you, there is nothing to pay you back, only an old life, take it for you!"

Hu Dekai didn't seem to expect Zhang Datou to have such a deep obsession with this matter.

In his opinion, it is not a big deal to be ordered by him to the police, and sooner or later the police will find him, after all, when he took the pair of gauntlets from his hands, he knew that sooner or later, the police would definitely find Zhang Datou here.

So from the very beginning, he didn't care much about Zhang Datou's side of things, and it didn't matter to him if he leaked a little bit.

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't take the police to heart, and even in his opinion, these policemen were a bunch of wine bags and rice bags.

"That's a good thing, isn't Liang Changxiu your friend?" Hu Dekai reached out and picked up the knife on the table, stretched out his hand to touch the blade on the knife, his eyes were horizontal, and he said with a sneer: "You didn't tell me that at the beginning, you said that Liang Changxiu was the first person to appreciate your craftsmanship after you arrived here, and he is also a person who really cherishes ancient weapons, and you have always regarded him as a confidant." ”

"But after the incident with the bow and crossbow, you sold him directly. ”

"In this way, the people who can be regarded as friends by you often end up being betrayed by you, and I am just one of them, right?"

Zhang Datou obviously didn't expect Hu Dekai to think of himself like this, but he didn't care anymore, after he told Ding Fan about Hu Dekai clearly, he had already thought it through.

He betrayed his friend, and no matter what the starting point was, he couldn't erase the dead knot in his heart.

In fact, if Hu Dekai can really kill him with one knife today, it will not be a good thing for him.

"Whatever you say, I betrayed you once, and I will repay you with my life!" Zhang Datou's eyes gradually fell lonely, and he was already fearless about whether Hu Dekai was going to do it to himself: "After today, you and I don't owe each other, kill me, set fire to you and leave, I will be very grateful to you." ”

After speaking, he turned around, and didn't look at Hu Dekai behind him, his straight back did not waver in the slightest, and he looked like he was begging for death now.

Hu Dekai held a knife in one hand, stood up, walked to Zhang Daguang's side step by step, waved the broken knife in his hand, and slashed him fiercely in the back.

"This is the end of the grievance between you and me, and the friendship is ...... Broken. ”

After speaking, he threw away the knife in his hand and turned to leave.
