Facing the expressions of the two, the old man smiled silently, slowly got up from the wooden chair, and then swung his posture and threw it towards the young man, only to see a white shadow flying out of the old man's hand quickly, and the young man raised two fingers and grabbed the thing thrown by Xu Lao.

It was a mask, and a white mask appeared between the boy's fingers.

There are no other colors, no other patterns, only a pair of small eye holes, simple and plain white, however, the whole mask looks unexpectedly a little weird, making people feel very depressed, like the white impermanence in black and white, coming to collect the soul.

In the next second, the young man put the mask into the seam of his clothes as if nothing had happened, and then the old man said faintly: "Old man Huo, do you have anything to eat?"

Huo Rong didn't answer Xu Lao's words immediately, stared at the young man a few times, and said, "No." ”

With the other party's strange tone, Xu Lao glanced at Huo Rong and said lightly: "Okay, then Shaoyu and I will go out first to get some food, do you want to bring you some?"

"No!"

Dissatisfied, Huo Rong turned around and walked towards the inner room without looking back, and then, the sound of the ground rubbing in the room was heard, and the young man knew that this short, grumpy old man had gone back to the underground secret room.

Xu Lao said: "Let's go!"

With a mum sound, the young man got up and walked to the old man's side, and the two walked out of the blacksmith shop, all the way to the mouth of the tunnel that had just gone down to the underwater city, and the young man followed the old man and walked into the tunnel, and his vision became extremely dark again.

Outside, the sky was already dark, and then a sultry, irritable atmosphere rushed towards the two of them, seaside cities generally at night, the temperature will drop to bring coolness, but at this time, it is completely contrary to the climate reaction.

The boy was stunned by the heat for a moment, and then looked at the beach, at this time there were no tourists playing, and the feeling of being empty at a glance suddenly made the teenager a little stunned.

He whispered, "Grandpa, where are we going?"

Xu Lao looked around and said with a smile: "Let's fill our stomachs first." ”

After speaking, the old man seemed to have a purpose, and walked to the side of the road, where he went, and the young man didn't know where he was going, so he had to follow obediently.

While walking, the young man touched the mask clipped to his chest, and remembered again in his mind that the last time Xu Lao also came out of him, "Loucheng".

Until now, he also has a deep memory, that is the place where he first killed someone, to be precise, an assassination!

In his memory, the other party is a greasy and obese middle-aged man, what is the specific identity, the young man does not know, but judging from the behavior of the other party and the entourage around him, at least he knows that he is a rich man.

He also asked Xu Lao, but the old man never told him the identity of the other party, in short, he was a bad person.

As for why he wanted to assassinate these people, Xu Lao told him that after taking the task, he had to kill them.

And there is a bounty to take, this is what Xu Lao told him, every time he kills someone, the young man can see the old man take out a lot of money from his bag, the two of them eat and drink, and then bring good food back to Shouyi.

This kind of thing, so far, the young man has been assassinated five times, plus this time he came to Nanhai City, it can be said that six times.

Suddenly, the boy looked at his hands, and his vision seemed to see them covered with brown blood.

At this time, he remembered that he had killed six lives, except for Huang Zheng, it was also when he assassinated the fifth person that the young man had a demon, and he couldn't sleep at night, every night was like being in the abyss, struggling in pain, but he couldn't escape the abyss.

Since then, Xu Lao blamed himself very much, and never took the boy to do the task again, fortunately, after going to school, Shaoyu's mentality changed, and when he saw his fate clearly, he no longer ran away, and calmly accepted the fact that he killed someone.

At the age of five, he began to go up the mountain to kill, from small animals to forest beasts, and at the age of seven, he killed people, such a childhood, why not be more terrible than nightmares every night.

"Kid?"

With a soft sound, Shaoyu woke up like a dream, looked up at the old man, and asked, "What's wrong, grandpa?"

Xu Lao stopped, hesitated for a while, and said: "This time, grandpa doesn't embarrass you, if you don't want to, you don't have to participate." ”

The young man shook his head decisively and said, "No, grandpa, I know that you are doing this to train me, since Huang Zheng's incident, I really feel that I am so weak, and I really want to become stronger." Only when you become stronger can you protect your brother, didn't you say that the fate of me and my brother is bumpy, if we don't get stronger, then we can only be slaughtered. ”

"And...... Since I started school, I have been sick to everyone except a few good friends I have made. ”

After saying this, the young man was stunned, as if he felt that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly wanted to explain, but he heard the old man next to him laugh, and then listened: "Child, you are right, human beings are actually the most disgusting species in the world. ”

The boy frowned.

When the old man saw this, he smiled and said, "Really, including your grandfather, I'm also a very bad person, but ......."

As soon as the words changed, the old man touched the young man's head and continued: "However, it is only for outsiders. ”

With these words, the young man's eyes lit up, and he nodded with understanding: "I understand grandpa." ”

Xu Lao was stunned for a moment, saw the young man's serious expression, then smiled, and stopped talking.

Shaoyu smiled and asked, "Then grandpa, you should tell me what the mission is this time, right?"

"Murder, you don't know. ”

The old man's understatement was like telling people that killing people was just a very simple thing.

The young man's reaction was also normal, and he frowned: "I know, who did you just kill?"

"I can't tell you the name right now, just a bad guy. ”

The young man gritted his teeth: "Grandpa, forget it, don't say it." ”

Facing the young man's anger, Xu Lao smiled slightly, and suddenly remembered something, and his voice was a little solemn: "That's right! This mission, you have to be vigilant, or the old rules, I'll wait for you above, don't be reckless, shout whenever something is wrong, do you hear?"

The young man nodded obediently and asked, "This time, what is the realm of the other party?"

In the past, he was still young and didn't understand the realm of martial artists, but now that he knows, he must understand the other party's bottom line to do a good job.

Assassination is not as good as a normal fight, it is a fatal move, it is best to kill the other party with one blow, if it is not dead, the other party will not stand stupidly, will definitely shoot, will never leave strength, who will save the assassin who wants to kill himself?

Xu Lao said loudly: "The target this time is just an ordinary person, but there are a lot of martial artists around him, you have to pay attention to this, if you can't kill with one blow, it's best to withdraw first, two fists are hard to beat four hands." ”

The young man snorted, he understood what the old man said, and then heard the old man say, "Let's eat some cold noodles first." ”

Shaoyu looked in the direction of the old man, and it turned out that there was a snack bar in front of him, and the signboard was Nancheng Liang Noodles.

The young man walked in with the old man, and a simple aunt came over, and after introducing the menu, the old and the young each asked for a bowl of cold noodles.

After a short meeting, after the two finished eating, they hailed a taxi by the way, and the old man said to the driver, "Shiyang Road, Center Street." ”

The driver looked at the old man and said, "Okay!"

It seems that he has the experience of the last time, and the young man also noticed the driver's gaze, and deliberately said to the driver: "Uncle, we are locals, don't collect money indiscriminately." ”

The young man's words made the driver stunned for a moment, then laughed, nodded with a smile, started the car, and said: "Children, you are very cute, but if you want to pretend to be a local, you still need a local accent, haha!"

Finding out that he had been recognized, the boy smiled awkwardly.

The driver said: "During this period, there are a lot of people from other places, and they will inevitably be cheated by some drivers, but don't worry, you won't charge money indiscriminately when you get into my car, what should it be, then where are you from?"

As he spoke, the driver glanced in the rearview mirror.

Shaoyu replied truthfully: "Horseshoe City." ”

"Horseshoe City?"

The driver frowned, muttered, and said, "I haven't heard of it!"

Shaoyu waved his hand: "It's okay, our place is small, it's normal that you haven't heard of it." ”

After speaking, the young man added: "Uncle driver, you concentrate on driving, there are a lot of people here." ”

Shaoyu looked at the prosperous street by the window and deliberately reminded him.

The driver hummed and said: "There are a lot of people on the central street, which belongs to the shopping area, and at night, they are all off work, and it is normal for everyone to go shopping." ”

Hearing this, the young man suddenly frowned, and deliberately looked at Xu Lao, but saw that the other party was closing his eyes and recuperating, so he had no choice but to figure it out by himself.

If the target of this assassination is on this street, there are so many people, the young man is inevitably afraid of being exposed, this is the first time he has gone to a place with so many people, this difficulty coefficient is inevitably high, although there are many people and it is good to assassinate the target, but there are many people, there are many eyes, even if the assassination is successful, he may not be able to run away.

I hope that the goal this time is not in a crowded place, the boy secretly hopes.

"Little friend, you're here. ”

The driver's voice came, and Shaoyu withdrew his vision from the window and asked, "How much is the uncle?"

The driver looked at the machine in front of him and said, "Just give thirty." ”

Fortunately, this price, the boy can still accept it, took out three ten-yuan tickets from his bag and handed them to the driver, and got out of the car first, and after Xu Lao got out of the car, the young man couldn't help asking: "Grandpa...... That's a lot of people, isn't it?"

As he spoke, the young man's eyes showed helplessness, because the avenue ahead was full of dense human heads.

"Don't worry, follow me. ”

After the old man finished speaking, he walked towards the avenue, constantly shuttling through the crowd, leisurely, like wool fluttering in the wind, flying freely in the bushes, and behind him, followed by a strangely dressed teenager, especially the teenager's hairstyle, tied with a ponytail, in this financial shopping street is really eye-catching.

However, it was unexpectedly good-looking, because of the boy's face.

The handsome little face and old clothes are a bit like a chivalrous man who has traveled from ancient times to the present.

And the white-robed old man in front of him also has a bit of the temperament of an immortal Taoist.

The old and the young, who were shuttling through the crowd, did not know that they had attracted the attention of many people, but the figures of the two quickly disappeared on this avenue, disappearing as quickly as a flash in the pan, and many curious eyes disappeared, and returned to the luxurious store again.

Crossing the Financial Avenue and coming to No. 2 Street, the old man stopped in front of a building that had to look up to see the top, and the young man on his side looked up at the golden sign on it, and said softly: "Name...... Flowing wine ......"

Before the boy could finish speaking, the old man left, and the boy hurriedly followed, and the sign "Celebrity Hotel" that he had not finished reading just now flashed in his mind

The old man walked to the corner of the building, glanced up, leaned against the stone pillar next to the building, and the young man who followed him asked loudly, "Grandpa?"

When he said this, Shaoyu couldn't help but lower his voice very low.

Xu Lao nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he saw a person walking at the door of the building, holding a black rod in his hand.

Dressed in neatly dressed black, with the word security embroidered on his left shoulder, the young man knew that he was the security officer of this building, and before he could get closer, he heard him shout unceremoniously: "What are you two sneaking here?"

Shaoyu was not convinced when he heard this, and said dissatisfiedly: "What is sneaky, my grandfather and I are tired of walking, what's wrong with leaning on your hotel?

The security guard's face changed, and he said coldly: "Boy, you have a hard temper, do you know what this place is?"

The young man replied unceremoniously: "Why don't I know, celebrity hotel, can you eat people?"

"Grass! You kid's mouth is very broken, sooner or later you will suffer, I don't care about you, get out of here! This is not a place for you poor people. ”

After saying that, the security guard turned around and left angrily.

Before he could turn around and take a few steps, Shaoyu slashed and suddenly laughed: "What are you arrogant about! You are just a watchdog, what are you afraid of? Even if you are a dog, you are gentler than you." ”

The security guard who was about to walk to the gate, was insulted by this word, stopped his steps, turned around in vain and walked towards an old and a young, the black stick in his hand was thrown violently, only to see that the front end of the black stick was a few more cuts, and the top one also became a small iron ball, if it was knocked on the body, it would definitely be uncomfortable.

And his cold eyes obviously want to beat the little kid in front of him, not to death, at least to keep that mouth shut!
