Chapter 278: I Heard You're Looking for Me
I heard that you were looking for me
The moon and stars are rare, and tonight seems ordinary, but it is not destined to be calm.
The aftermath of the assassin in the City Lord's Mansion seemed to have passed, but in the eyes of the discerning people, they knew that the turmoil had only started at this time.
The situation between the Jin family and the Wu family was suddenly much more tense for some reason, and the City Lord's Mansion was just happy to watch from the sidelines.
Under the general trend, a number of upper, middle and lower third-class families who depend on the two major families to survive are like great enemies, and the people who sat together to drink tea and mock the city lord's mansion the day before have drawn their swords and controlled the strings today.
Li Qi sat in the middle of the small courtyard, I don't know why, but there was a lot of touch in my heart.
Maybe it's because too many things have happened today, or maybe it's Yan Xi's momentum of slashing a knife on his body at the cost of life and death, which has touched him too much.
He began to wonder if he was doing the right thing, and at some point, he became murderous.
Have you become a wicked person?
No one could answer this question, neither Turis, who had barely modified the fort, nor the kitten lying at his feet, could give him the right answer, let alone the little blue who was sleeping soundly blowing blue bubbles on top of his head. This question is a knot in his heart, and only he is destined to be able to figure it out.
The night passed slowly in Li Qi's dull and distracted eyes, he saw with his own eyes that the eastern sky gradually revealed the white of the fish's belly, and he saw the first rays of morning light pierce the dawn sky, and he saw the darkness fade away like a tide.
He watched Xue Yu step into the courtyard, and he stopped talking.
He knew it was time to go.
He looked at the darkness and thought about it all night, touched it all night, but still didn't understand the question, and still didn't understand why the darkness sometimes gives people a sense of fear, and sometimes it gives people an indescribable sense of security.
But he understood a truth.
This world is cannibalism, either you eat me, or I eat you, it doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong, as long as you stand on the opposite side of me, then for me, you are wrong, this world will never be just pure black and white, just like people.
Maybe you are a very evil person in the hearts of some people, but so what......
All I want to do is learn the Great Resurrection Technique and resurrect my parents, and whoever stops me can be said to be my enemy.
Shouldn't the enemy's treatment be as clean and neat as the wind sweeping away the leaves, but where does her soft-hearted woman's mentality come from?
He thought to himself in a daze, looked at Xue Yu, and couldn't help but laugh happily.
Yes, what do you care about the rest, don't forget your original intention, that is, you are comfortable.
Xue Yu was a little puzzled by his inexplicable laughter, and she was a little anxious: "Let's go, while they haven't come up with the charter yet, let's go quickly, Uncle De is already waiting for you at the city gate." ”
"Let's go!" Li Qi nodded vigorously and got up.
Turisi silently followed him, but Li Qi suddenly turned around: "Turis, you can't go with me." ”
"Why?" there was a hint of panic in Turis's eyes, "Is the gentleman going to throw me away?"
"Hahaha. Li Qi laughed: "You are a master-level person, I am reluctant to abandon it like this, I am going to Harman City, I am destined to not be peaceful along the way, you follow me, when the time comes, no one cares about your master status." ”
Turis wanted to refute, but he knew that what Li Qi said was the truth, and he could only be silent.
"You stay in Falling Snow City, and when I return to Haman City, I will come back to pick you up, those families are concerned about your status as a master, you and Aturu will not have a problem with their safety, and there is Senior Sister Xueyu to protect you. Li Qi turned his head to Xue Yu: "Senior sister, after I leave, I will ensure their safety." ”
"Don't worry. Xue Yu nodded: "They'll be fine." ”
"Kitten, Xiaolan, let's go!" Li Qi hurriedly walked towards the door.
"Where are you going?"
Before he reached the door, he heard a powerful ridicule from outside.
Xue Yu's face changed suddenly, lined up Li Qi, walked to the door, and gritted her teeth: "It's you! What are you doing here!"
Li Qi poked his head out, and there stood a large number of people outside the door, old and young, but the youngest was older than Li Qi's, led by a dying old man with gray hair and beard.
Hearing Xue Yu's question, he coughed, and gave a salute a little leaning on the old man: "The head of the Wang family in Falling Snow City has seen the eldest lady." ”
"The head of the Qi family in Falling Snow City has seen the eldest lady. ”
"The head of the Duan family in Falling Snow City has seen the eldest lady. ”
There was a greeting behind her, it seemed that these people were not all the way, Xue Yu turned a deaf ear, she just stared at the old man at the front.
"Old man Wang, what are you doing here?" Xue Yu asked again, accentuating her tone.
Li Qi frowned, thinking back to some of the familiar faces he saw at the banquet yesterday, and suddenly reacted, aren't these people the heads of those small and medium-sized families who are close to his residence.
"Miss, this person can't go. The old man at the front owed a debt and said: "This person has a great relationship with the bitter word assassin, he can't go, if he leaves, the Wu family will blame him afterwards, and we can't afford it." ”
"The Wu family blames, that's an afterthought, if you don't get out of the way, the City Lord's Mansion will make you unable to afford it now!"
Li Qi sneered and watched their movements, no one moved, no one replied, just silence, but their attitudes had been firmly expressed.
Maybe if the city lord hadn't disappeared, their scruples about the city lord's mansion would be greater than that of the Wu family, but the city lord had disappeared for so long, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, but he was afraid that in the hearts of these people, it was just the city lord's mansion where Xue Yu was in power, and it was just a paper tiger, and it couldn't make them jealous.
"Now, get out of the way!" Xue Yu's face turned pale: "I give you an order in the name of the City Lord's Mansion!"
"Miss, you don't represent the City Lord's Mansion. The old man of the Wang family at the head said in a non-yin and non-yang manner: "The person behind you is related to the bitter word assassin, but you have been protecting him, and now you want to help him escape, so that the lives of the people under your rule are disregarded, could it be that the demon who kills people like hemp is not raised by the city lord's mansion." ”
"You!" Xue Yu's eyes widened, furious. "Bitter word assassin?" Li Qi suddenly sneered, he gently patted Xue Yu's shoulder, walked in front of her, and sneered: "Where do you see that he is murderous? Collect money to do things, and ask for your life according to the map, isn't this what an assassin should do, saying that I am related to the bitter word assassin, so I am not afraid that I will let the bitter word assassin kill your entire clan afterwards?"
"Heavenly principles are restored, good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded, bitter assassins do many evils, sooner or later they will not die well!" A young man standing behind the old man of the Wang family said loudly, looking at Li Qi's eyes mixed with monstrous jealousy, occasionally looking at Xue Yu's eyes, greed like a poisonous snake about to crawl out.
"Good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil?" Li Qi sneered: "Do you believe it yourself? Why, looking at your battle, do you want to arrest me, lure the bitter character assassin to appear, and tie me up to invite merit? As for the Jin family or the Wu family, isn't it all the same, who would be too little to catch such a face-saving thing as the bitter character assassin, don't you say?"
"Mr. Li's words are very wrong, the old man just wants to invite Mr. Li to sit in the house and drink tea, but he doesn't dare to think anything wrong, Mr. Li has been in Snowy City for so long, speaking of which, our neighbors have not yet fulfilled the friendship of landlords. The old man of the Wang family smiled lightly and clenched the crutches in his hand.
"The friendship of the landlord?" Li Qi said with a long smile: "I want to go, but I'm afraid you won't dare to invite." ”
"Why don't you dare, Jinzong, go, bring Mr. Li back to the family to serve for a good life. The old man of the Wang family quietly loosened his fingers on his crutches and motioned for the young man behind him to grab Li Qi.
Li Qi pressed the snow jade with a cold face on the side, shook his head slightly, and motioned for him to solve it here.
"I've heard you've been looking for a bitter word assassin. Li Qi slowly put his finger on the ring on his left hand.
The young man who was full of malice before had already come out of the ranks, sneering, and walked towards Li Qi step by step, still holding a rope in his hand.
"I'm a good person, I've always been kind. Li Qi raised his head with a bright smile on his face: "Seeing that you are so sincere, why don't you meet you?"
"Jinzong, move quickly!" The old man surnamed Wang led by him suddenly felt a chill to the bone, and he didn't dare to slack off, urging again and again.
The young man's expression changed, and he rushed towards Li Qi with a fit in his body, and the rope in his hand shook, and he was about to throw it at Li Qi, but at this time, he suddenly stopped, as if he had seen a ghost, and suddenly stopped his movements.
His body happened to block the sight of the old man surnamed Wang, and the old man frowned, and his majesty was self-assured: "Jinzong, what are you doing?"
How dare the young man answer, he only felt that his hands and feet were cold, and the blood seemed to stop flowing little by little, and his pupils reflected a bright red, and his pupils instantly contracted to the size of a pinpoint, full of fear and despair. His scalp is ** a piece. The hair stood on end, and the hand holding the rope kept shaking, but I felt that I had no strength at all, and the rope fell to the ground with a "click".
He wanted to sit on the ground, but found that his legs were as stiff as iron, and the man was so frightened that he couldn't even control the muscles on his face that kept twitching, and he was shaky but his bones were so stiff that he couldn't make any movements.
"Huh. ”
Li Qi chuckled lightly and slowly walked out from behind the figure.
On his face, a mask was pale.
The center of the eyebrows, a little bitter word is bright.
"I heard you've been looking for me?" the voice was cold, hoarse.
There was a dead silence in the field, everyone's faces were as white as snow, and no one dared to reply.
Fierce Veros.
The ferocity is monstrous!
