929 - Only one can live

"Ji thief, Ji thief, I was wrong, I don't dare anymore, you, you spare me! As long as you don't kill me, I am willing to be a slave for you!"

Mulian cried heartbreaking, but neither Ji Thief nor Ah Zheng looked at her.

Ji Thief stretched his hand back, and Tushan scratched his head and handed over the broom.

Ji Thief: "ยทยทยท"

"Son, give me your sword. Ji Thief said.

Zi agreed, drew the knife from his waist, held it with both hands, and respectfully put it in the hands of the thief.

The thief looked down at the knife, swaying it back and forth in his hand, and suddenly, he smiled as he held it.

Cang Langlang heard the sound of gold and stone, and the copper knife was thrown directly into the cave by the thief.

Ji Thief pointed his chin forward, and said to Ah Zai and Mu Lian: "I can let you go, but I can only let one go, one of you betrays me, one instigates, one must die, otherwise, I can't explain it to everyone." I gave you the knife, pick it up, kill the other party, the one who is alive, I will let him go. โ€

As he spoke, the thief turned around and said, "You take people to stay here, if they want to cut the rope with a knife and escape, both of them will be killed." โ€

Hearing this, Zi nodded vigorously: "Yes!

The thief looked into the prison and said, "I will come to see you at this time tomorrow, and I will let him go if he is alive." โ€

After speaking, Ji Thief left his son and a few other thunder fire dead soldiers, led the people in charge, turned around and left.

When they left the scene, a group of people were still discussing who would survive between Ah Zai and Mulian.

Some say that Ah Zai is ruthless, and he must exchange for his own chance to live, and Mu Lian may not be able to beat Ah Zai, although Ah Zai is missing an arm.

Some said that the two of them might have died because of grabbing knives.

Only Ah Ju hit the nail on the head: "The one who died must be Ah Zheng." โ€

The people in charge looked at Ah Ju.

Ah Ju shook his head and said, "You don't know how much status Mu Lian has in Ah Zheng's heart. โ€

After speaking, Ah Ju also sighed.

I went back that day and was busy without saying anything, and at the same time the next day, Ji Thief really came with the people in charge.

Where is the knife still placed, Ah Zai is lying on the ground, and Mulian is no longer lying in Ah Zai's arms as before, but sitting on both sides with Ah Zai, a pair of eyes are full of dull looks, and the eyeballs are constantly patrolling back and forth on the knife.

When the thief came, he startled the two of them.

Seeing this, Ji Thief pursed his lips and said: "There are still ten days, and in ten days, all the patriarchs will come to the Lihuo Tribe to participate in the counterinsurgency celebration meeting." If you hadn't decided the winner by then, I'd take both of you out and put you to death in front of everyone, understand?"

Saying that, Ji Thief instructed the security tribesmen: "From today onwards, the two of them will only have one food a day. โ€

The vigilante nodded.

On the third day, the thief returned, and the food had been eaten cleanly, and the wooden plates were all licked and full of saliva.

The thief called the security tribesmen to ask about the situation, and the tribesman said, "Yesterday the two of them ate the food separately. โ€

Ji Thief nodded: "It seems that the two of them are still not hungry." โ€

Xue asked the thief why he didn't kill Ah Zheng and Mulian directly, to which the thief didn't answer, and continued to reduce the food supply for the two.

Eventually, the food delivered was barely enough for one person to survive for a day.

On the sixth day, when the thief came over again, he found that Mulian's position was closer to the knife.

The wooden plate containing the food was almost at Mulian's feet.

When asked the security tribesmen, they replied that they had not eaten any food.

Ji Thief snorted, stepped forward, and pointed out the two again: "There are still four days, and you still have four days to live." โ€

After saying that, the thief left.

After the thief left, the security tribesmen and their sons also hid.

These days, there is less food, and although it is possible not to starve to death, it is impossible to fill the stomach.

Mulian's eyes kept coming out, her stomach gurgling, and she swallowed her saliva frantically.

She tried to reach for the knife.

Ah Zheng, who had been lying on the ground with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, and Mulian was startled.

"Mulian... What are you doing?"

Mu Lian didn't expect Ah Zheng's ears to be so useful, so she hurriedly waved her hand: "No, no, I didn't do anything." โ€

Ah Zai sighed, and looked straight at the top of the cave with a pair of eyes: "I didn't expect that the thief would punish me in such a vicious way, it seems that I don't have a few days to live." โ€

Mulian didn't speak, just looked at the knife.

"Mulian, come and talk to me, okay?" Ah Zai's tone was a little sad.

Mu Lian didn't respond, and her eyes looked at the knife even more eagerly.

"Mulian, what's wrong with you, why don't you speak?"

Mu Lian was silent for a long time, and said in a hoarse voice: "What do you say, it's time to sleep." โ€

She was lying on the ground, hungry and uncomfortable to sleep, her hands on her belly, and her mind couldn't help but think wildly.

Slowly, Mu Lian felt that everything in front of her was a little blurry.

In the darkness, she seemed to see Ah Zai staggering up and walking towards the knife, and as she walked, the corners of Ah Zai's mouth drooled downward, and there was also a smile in her mouth: "Mulian, don't blame me, the two of us, we can only survive one." Come on, I'll kill you and eat you, so that we can live together forever, cluck~"

With that, Ah Zai raised the copper knife in his hand, and the Moon Palace shone in from the outside and hit Ah Zai's face, hideous and terrifying, like a devil from hell.

Mu Lian was so frightened that she opened her eyes suddenly.

It was late at night, and the moonlight shone on the ground and was silvery white.

Whew, it's a dream.

Mu Lian breathed a sigh of relief and looked in the direction of Ah Zheng, he was still lying on the ground, not moving, as if he was dead, just like in his dream, after lying to himself asleep, before he took a knife to kill himself.

Mu Lian stared at the place where Ah Zai was, and secretly wondered in her heart.

No wonder you give me food to eat these days, it turns out that you are still planning to eat me! Hmph, Ah Zheng, I can see through you, and you actually want me to die so that you can live, tell you, I, Mulian, will never agree!

Thinking of this, Mulian looked at the knife.

She was engaged in confrontation and strife in her heart.

"Anyway, Ji Thief said, I and Ah Zai can only survive one, and if I am locked up here, Ah Zai has no way to save me out, a useless person, why should I show mercy to him? It is best to live by myself!"

Thinking of this, Mulian nodded.

She reached out.

The moment her hand touched the copper knife, Mulian's heart finally fell into her stomach.

Mulian stood up and walked towards Ah Zai with a knife.

She looked at Ah Zai who was sleeping soundly in her dream, and slashed it down, and Ah Zai had her head in her hand.

Mulian shouted excitedly, holding Ah Zheng's head and shouting, after attracting the son, the thief didn't take long to run over.

Looking at Ah Zheng's head, Ji Thief fulfilled his promise on the spot and let himself go.

From the moment she left the Lihuo Valley, Mulian couldn't help but want to cheer, herself, she was finally alive again.

Suddenly, her legs shook, as if she was on a cliff but stepped on the air, and Mulian instantly woke up.

She blinked her eyes and looked up, it was still a familiar cave, she was still here, just now, it was just her own dream.

Mulian turned over and sat up, and Ah Zai was lying there.

She pinched herself hard, and when she was sure she was awake, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She sat here, remembering her two dreams.

One, if he doesn't take the initiative, he will be killed by Ah Zheng, and the other, if he kills Ah Zheng, he can get back the chance to live.

Even fools know how to choose.

As for Ah Zheng, he has already said in his dream that a useless person, what affection do you need to leave for him?

Mu Lian still stretched out her hand to the copper knife.

The copper knife was held coldly in his hand, but Mu Lian felt that her blood was hot.

She remembered the sweet words she had said when Ah Zai gave her food these days, and the happy smile on Ah Zai's face at that time.

"Everything is a lie, only survival is the most important thing!"

Holding the knife tightly, Mulian gritted her teeth and said.

She quietly stood up and walked towards Ah Zheng.

Looking at Ah Zai, who was lying down with his back to him without any defense, Mu Lian snorted, and whispered in her heart: "Ah Zai, I am also for your good, it is better to die in my hands than to die in the hands of Ji Thief!"
