Chapter 16: The Royal Road

In the past three years, from a mercenary to a killer, Lin Xiaocao can be described as a murderer, but it is the first time for him to be responsible for destroying the corpse after killing someone.

From a killer to a bodyguard, the change of identity is destined to make him no longer as chic and free as before, and on the mountain road that is not long or short from Tiangongfu, he already has countless ways to destroy the corpse in his mind, and finally feels that the primitive method of pouring a bucket of gasoline and burning the corpse to ashes is the most in line with the actual situation.

The night was hazy.

Late night before snowfall, wet and eerie.

In the car with enough warm air, Lin Xiaocao stared at the road in front of him and said softly, "Why do you want to come out with me?"

"Huh?"

Lin Shuimo, who was obviously a little absent-minded, uttered a simple syllable, blinking his eyes at the young bodyguard who was driving.

"It's too late for you ladies to hide from this kind of thing, right? Why do you come out with me? What do you think?"

Lin Xiaocao asked again patiently.

"I think you're going to be scared, so I'm with you. ”

Lin Shuimo replied obediently, her tone was in a trance, I am afraid that she herself does not know what she is talking about, her mind that is imprisoned in tradition and ordinary worldliness, the scene of Lin Xiaocao shattering the ceiling is constantly being replayed.

That kind of wildness, that kind of domineering, that kind of invincibility, that kind of invincibility that looks down on everything.

At that moment, even Lin Shuimo, who never believed in love at first sight, shook violently in his heart.

It was the second time she had seen someone kill since she was a child.

Different from the fear of seeing the killer in white with a golden mask killing Lin Xiao for the first time, when the ceiling collapsed and Lin Xiaocao completely fell to the ground and smashed the other party's heart, in the bloody picture, Lin Shuimo's heart only had a strong sense of security, hot and warm, which devoured her entire soul in an instant.

It seems that as long as he is there, she has nothing to fear!

Lin Shuimo doesn't know her mentality at this moment, maybe something is wrong, but at least she doesn't plan to change anything now.

The corners of Lin Xiaocao's mouth moved, he seemed to smile, he didn't speak, he didn't drive the conspicuous red Tesla, but drove a black Audi A6L from the garage, the deck, this kind of thing that can be used as a taxi in Kyushu City, even in the middle of the night, it is not uncommon, Audi A6L out of Tiangong Mansion, driving along the road at a constant speed, never attracting any attention along the way.

He didn't drive around randomly to find a place suitable for destroying corpses, on the contrary, his driving route was unusually clear, and the car turned around the spider-like road in Kyushu City, all the way to the west, getting farther and farther away from the Tiangong Mansion behind him.

"Where are you going?"

Lin Shuimo finally came back to his senses from his trance, glanced at his surroundings, and asked out loud.

"In the western suburbs, there are no big buildings over there, just some abandoned factories, and the corpses are pulled over there and burned down. ”

Lin Xiaocao's tone was calm, Lin Shuimo's current mental state was quite abnormal, and Lin Xiaocao even suspected that she didn't know what to do with her.

"Are you familiar with the capital?"

Lin Shuimo's tone was a little surprised, Kyushu City is very big, many people have lived here for half their lives, and they may not be able to figure out every street and alley in this city, Lin Shuimo only moves within the range she is familiar with on weekdays, and now Lin Xiaocao's route has made her more and more unfamiliar.

"I looked at the map yesterday. ”

Lin Xiaocao said lightly: "So if the map is correct, I should be very familiar with this place." ”

Lin Shuimo rolled his eyes coquettishly, moved lazily in the passenger seat, and continued to stare at Lin Xiaocao's side face.

The corpse that was trampled on and had its heart broken was thrown in the trunk of the Audi at random, and the smell of blood gradually spread in the closed compartment, Lin Shuimo, who had always thought that he was very timid, was surprisingly not frightened, and his beautiful eyes flickered, bright and warm.

The Audi A6L walked on the road for about an hour before finally stopping at an abandoned factory on the western outskirts of Kyushu City.

"I'm going to dispose of the corpse, I guess you won't like to enjoy these images, just wait for me here. ”

Lin Xiaocao parked the car, turned on the music in the car casually, and planned to get out of the car.

Lin Shuimo, who had completely come to his senses, had a little pale face, biting his lip, and his eyes were hesitant.

Lin Xiaocao didn't care about her, got out of the car and opened the trunk, dragged out the cold corpse in the trunk with one hand, took a small barrel of gasoline in the other hand, and strode towards the dark factory.

Lin Shuimo, who was a little pale in his face, subconsciously glanced out the window.

Lin Xiaocao's back was still upright, the corpse was dragged behind him with one hand, dragging the ground and gliding, in the trance darkness, Lin Shuimo suddenly felt that the corpse's eyes that had not closed until death were looking at her faintly.

Lin Shuimo's body trembled violently, and he desperately pushed the car door and rushed towards Lin Xiaocao.

Lin Xiaocao seemed to feel the movement behind him, and his body stopped, although he didn't look back, he didn't move.

Lin Shuimo's face was pale, and he trotted all the way to Lin Xiaocao, subconsciously glanced at the corpse again, exclaimed, and ran directly to the other side of Lin Xiaocao, grabbed one of his arms tightly, and gasped softly.

All of a sudden, it was unusually quiet.

The corpse did not move, Lin Xiaocao did not move, and in the dark environment, only Lin Shuimo's quiet breath echoed.

A huge uneasiness instantly rose from Lin Shuimo's heart, and then turned into panic.

She gently stretched out her hand, pushed Lin Xiaocao, and said in a trembling voice: "Let's go"

Lin Xiaocao didn't move, and he didn't speak, like a statue pulling a corpse.

Lin Shuimo's hairs suddenly stood up, her body trembled violently, everything in front of her made her almost suspect that she was in a dream, and under the huge horror, she even suspected that Lin Xiaocao was a character she imagined.

Her body trembled slightly, and there was already a hint of crying in her voice: "Hey, don't scare me"

Lin Xiaocao still didn't move.

But in the darkness, the corpse moved slightly.

Fear spread all over his body in an instant, Lin Shuimo opened his small mouth, and a scream that was destined to cut through the night had not yet been screamed, and Lin Xiaocao's voice with a hint of banter and laughter had already sounded: "You are so daring, you dare to come out with me?"

He's scaring me!

Most of the fear disappeared magically, but Lin Shuimo was stimulated by the grievances that suddenly came to his heart: "I'm just a girl, Lin Xiaocao, you're too much!"

"Oh, let's go inside. ”

Lin Xiaocao's sense of humor came and went quickly, pulling the corpse and walking directly into the factory.

Lin Shuimo pulled his arm carrying the gasoline canister and followed closely, not knowing whether it was out of cold or frightened, his body was still trembling slightly.

The two didn't go too far, and when they entered the factory, Lin Xiaocao casually left the body on the ground, took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the surroundings, picked up some things that were easy to ignite and put them on the corpse, then poured gasoline on them and lit them with a lighter.

In the darkness, a trace of spark flashed away, and in an instant it turned into a flame, and then a flame.

A bright fire began to burn.

With a slight crackling sound, Lin Xiaocao found a place to sit down at random, and said softly: "When the burning is over, we can go back." ”

The first time he did this, it was unfamiliar and tight, but fortunately, this kind of work does not require any technical content, in this kind of place, the corpse is turned into ashes, and most of it is an unsolved case.

The firelight flickered.

Under the light and shadow, Lin Xiaocao's angular handsome face flickered and dimmed, Lin Shuimo looked at him quietly, and suddenly found that there was no timidity or indifference in the eyes of this young man, but there was a trace of nostalgia and guilt in his eyes.

Lin Shuimo's heart softened for no reason, and quietly walked over to sit beside him, hesitated, put his legs together, and leaned against Lin Xiaocao.

Dark. Firelight. Corpse.

Young men and women next to each other.

There was a burst of fragrance beside him, Lin Shuimo moved his body unconsciously, and his soft hair swept across Lin Xiaocao's face, itchy.

Lin Xiaocao didn't move, nor did he speak, just quietly looked at the quiet fire swaying in front of him.

Because of the hurry of coming out, Lin Shuimo, who only had time to pick up his coat and ran out wearing a pair of white dog-headed slippers, moved restlessly on his toes, and on the fluffy dog-headed slippers, the plastic eyes reflected the darkness faintly.

"Actually, you shouldn't have killed him. ”

Lin Shuimo said suddenly, his soft voice ruining the strange warm atmosphere in front of him.

"Huh?"

Lin Xiaocao obviously didn't think about this, or rather, he didn't think about anything now, just hummed casually and lazily.

"If you kill him, there will be no room for compromise with the Southwest Lin family. ”

Lin Shuimo wrapped his hands around his knees, his little head rested on Lin Xiaocao's arm, and whispered.

"There is no room for compromise in the first place, whether this person dies or not, it can't change the result that the Southwest Lin family wants to kill me, right?"

Lin Xiaocao smiled casually, and his tone was light and light: "The Southwest Lin family killed me for the sake of profit, so the person in front of me, whether he is dead or alive, can't change anything, he lives just to make your family feel better, so you just said wrong, this person is dead, it's not that I and the Southwest Lin family have no room for compromise, it should be said that the two of you Lin family have no room for compromise, even if there is, it will be much smaller than before." ”

"You're helping Grandpa make a decision?"

Lin Shuimo raised his head suddenly, looking at Lin Xiaocao with burning eyes.

"I just want to change the Southwest Lin family's opinion of your family, your grandfather should have made his attitude clear a long time ago, and now dragging between the two behemoths of the Wang family and the southwest faction is hesitating, and it is also waiting for the price to sell, if you hesitate for too long, in the end, no matter how you choose, you will lose points, and it is not cost-effective." ”

Lin Xiaocao glanced at Lin Shuimo indifferently, smiled, and said, "Are you willing to marry into the Lin family in the southwest?" Although Lin Xiao is dead, it is not difficult to find someone Lin to marry you, right?"

Lin Shuimo snorted, put his head on Lin Xiaocao's shoulder again, rubbed it, and said lazily: "I don't want to." But they will definitely not let you go, you just came to Kyushu City, and you don't understand the horror of the Southwest Lin family, if Lin Fengxue is determined to kill you, you can't escape. ”

"As many as they come, they can kill as many as they want. ”

Lin Xiaocao said indifferently, and the crystal clear gorgeous dagger appeared in his palm again, shining with a charming luster under the light of the firelight.

"Very beautiful knife. ”

Lin Shuimo's eyes lit up slightly, staring at the blade in Lin Xiaocao's hand, counting now, she had seen this knife three times, the first two times would be stained with blood each time, but this time it was different, under the light of the fire, it was like a pure and transparent work of art.

She subconsciously stretched out her hand to stroke it, but halfway through her hand, she took it back and smiled embarrassedly: "Does it have a name?"

"Red face. ”

Lin Xiaocao hesitated for a moment, and said lightly: "The name taken by my master." I prefer its former name, Amber, though. ”

"Amber?"

Lin Shuimo blinked his eyes, his expression puzzled.

"About twenty years ago, amber was a sword, and that sword symbolized fearless courage. I always thought that was the most suitable sword for me, but unfortunately, the amber was broken into three in my second master's hand, and finally turned into three daggers, Hongyan was one of them, and one was in my sister's, called Time. ”

Lin Xiaocao's tone was filled with undisguised regret and regret, and his voice was soft as if he was muttering to himself.

Lin Shuimo opened her mouth, and the woman's natural curiosity made her subconsciously want to ask what the name of the third dagger was, but when the words came to her mouth, she still followed Lin Xiaocao's words: "Why did the amber break into three?"

Lin Xiaocao's expression became complicated in an instant, and he was silent for two minutes before he calmed down: "Because of some grievances and obsessions that can't say who is right and who is wrong." ”

He couldn't tell the reason and beginning of that incident for a long time, he only vaguely knew that there was also such an old man who amazed the entire era back then, and he was defeated twice in the hands of his second master, Ye Chunqiu.

For the first time, for the sake of justice, the second master abolished his legs and drove him out of the empire.

And the second time, the old man with his legs restored went to Kunlun Mountain in person to challenge the second master again.

That time, he failed again, and it was the last defeat of his life.

Then, in less than a week, a mad man went up to Kunlun Mountain for the third time with a frenzy in his hand.

In that battle, under the heavenly court, the heavenly court, which was once still a gorgeous palace, collapsed most of it, and the famous sword amber was broken into three pieces in the hands of the second master, and the master and the second master shot together, but in the end they were defeated by one person's sword.

And the second master, Ye Chunqiu, swore a heavy oath that he would not be half a step lower than Kunlun in this life!

The one who defeated his two masters with his own hands is the emperor of the current northern royal family.

And the old man who died in the battle of Kunlun Mountain was the most important pioneer of the northern royal family, the emperor's second grandfather, and one of the few old people who Lin Xiaocao had respect or even awe.

It was the old man who was so paranoid that he made Lin Xiaocao understand that sometimes, even if he failed, he was just as great.

Lin Xiaocao sighed softly and turned her head, but she was stunned.

Because Lin Shuimo was still looking at him directly, with a puzzled expression with an undisguised curiosity**.

"Because of an old man who failed twice. I don't want to talk about his failures, it's a tribute to him. ”

Lin Xiaocao said softly, this time, his answer was extremely serious.

"You don't like to fail. ”

Lin Shuimo looked at Lin Xiaocao and said, not a question, but an affirmation.

Lin Xiaocao hesitated and nodded: "No one likes to fail, even if he is great. ”

"Haven't you ever failed?"

Lin Shuimo asked coldly.

Lin Xiaocao's body stiffened suddenly, and after a while, he said lightly: "Yes, twice." ”

"When?"

Lin Shuimo's gossip fire began to burn very inappropriately.

Lin Xiaocao's eyes were dazed and gloomy.

What is reflected in my mind is the almost invincible sword!

He clenched his fists tightly, and there was a strange momentary dullness in his eyes.

He had also failed, and twice in a row, by the same sword.

That sword.

It's called the king!――
