Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Trapped City (Part II)
He had been sleepless all night.
The sound of the river flowing outside the window became louder than ever in this night, and the noise was like the first half of an old man's life.
He begged for a life on the head of the knife, whether it was the scar on his face, body or the lost eye, it was a memorial of the knife's career.
He has cut people, and even ended a life with his own hands in a deep mountain.
The sound of the blade slashing through his throat and blood spurting out of his throat he will never forget.
That night, it was the same sound that echoed in his ears, causing him to toss and turn.
As if yesterday was repeated, countless memories of the past came to mind on this night.
The old man only lay on the bed for half the night and then got up, and during the day he had been searching outside all day, but found nothing, and the young man he threw into the river seemed to be dissolved in the water of the Taotao River, and he did not find even a hair of the other party.
The river was so urgent, and the unconscious youth was dead in the eyes of the old man.
Just like the person who slit his throat from behind back then, he could only fall into the abyss of death weakly.
But, life must see people, death must see corpses!
Then, destroy the corpse!
The old man will not forget how he became one-eyed, and he did not clean up the traces after the killing, so that the body of the victim he hastily buried in the mountains and forests was found.
Where there is blood, there is revenge, and where there is revenge, there is revenge.
The enemy finally found him, and he was forced into a barren mountain, forced into a panic, but in the end he was still surrounded by him.
In the fight of the trapped beasts, he lost an eye, but saved his life.
No one knows how he survived, he didn't tell anyone about that experience, and no one can find out what happened back then.
After that time, he left his homeland, came to a strange place, found a woman who was willing to marry him and became a family, and then there were some boring plots: he had a son, his son grew up and started a family, his wife died, his son and daughter-in-law died in an accident, and finally, he led his little granddaughter to live by the river, just like when he was just exiled in a foreign land.
He can't use the word 'happiness' to describe his life, and everything is blamed on "not cleaning up the traces after the murder in the first place".
He would never allow himself to make the same mistake a second time.
Especially now that he can't afford to make another mistake.
After all, he is no longer alone, and it is precisely because of this that he did not stop Dr. Liu from leaving.
Many people saw him go to Dr. Liu, and they also saw him and Dr. Liu rushing to the riverside, and he couldn't move Dr. Liu.
"I wish you had fed the fish and shrimp. ”
The old man's eyes were very dry, and he knew that his eyes were already crawling with bloodshot at this moment.
He knew that his limit was approaching, and he had a feeling that he would fall down if he closed his eyes for almost two days.
He tried to open his eyes and look at the river in the distance, hoping to see some kind of humanoid floating object, but he was already dizzy, and he could still see it within a hundred meters of the river, and only a white expanse was left a hundred meters away, like fog and clouds.
"Poof!"
Suddenly, the old man heard the sound of water, a sound that was different from the natural flow of the river, as if someone was swimming in the river.
"Who?"
The direction of the sound of the water is roughly downstream, and the old man's heart moved, and he set up the boat and went downstream.
"Who is in front? The water in the river is cold, so you can't swim at will!"
The old man shouted, like a reservoir manager.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"I ask you, what about Thirteen?"
In the western capital, on the old city tower, a group of guys dressed in retro were illegally assembled, and one of the men in white looked at the others with cold eyes with his hands.
There were twenty people in this group, most of them wearing green clothes, and he was the only one wearing white.
Under the rules of the Zhou family, only those who can be ranked in the top ten can wear clothes of this color.
"Thirteenth sister, she said that she would wait for us here, but now that she is not here, and the soul mark of the eighteenth brother has disappeared again, then I am afraid that the thirteenth sister is going to hunt down the murderer." Now the soul mark of the thirteenth sister is still there, and with the means of the thirteenth sister, it is believed that the murderer has not been solved for the time being, we have divided the manpower to investigate around, and once there is a movement, we will definitely report back to you as soon as possible!"
A young man saluted the man in white, his expression restrained, as if he was afraid of saying something wrong.
"Starling, please don't be impatient!"
The other man standing next to the young man chimed in.
"I've already seen the soul imprint of the thirteen left in the jade slip, she didn't leave the Western Capital, the Heavenly Refining Demon Array, has it been arranged?"
'Starling' said lightly.
"It's all set up!"
The man in Tsing Yi said, he took out a formation plate from his arms and respectfully handed it to the 'starling'.
"Let's get going. ”
'Starling' looked at the array plate slightly, and then returned it to the man in Tsing Yi.
"But ......"
The man in Tsing Yi carefully put away the array plate, and there was hesitation in his eyes.
"But what?"
'Starling' hummed.
"But the fifth brother, they haven't arrived yet......"
The man in Tsing Yi whispered, carefully watching the expression on the 'starling's face, his heartbeat almost missing half a beat when he saw the latter's frowning brow.
"Don't wait for them, start the battle!
'Starling' said.
"Yes...... It's ......"
The man in Tsing Yi only promised, but he didn't rush to take out the array plate, and this action fell into the eyes of the 'starling', and the latter suddenly let out a sneer.
"Hehe, what's the matter, in your eyes, is it really the fifth child with a higher status?"
The man in Tsing Yi trembled, and said in his mouth: "Don't dare! Don't dare!"
"Listen to me! If Thirteen is missing a hair, don't say that I won't spare you, even if the fifth child is here, he won't spare you!"
'Starling' gave the man in Tsing Yi a slap, and the crisp voice resounded in everyone's hearts,
"Don't start the formation yet!"
The man in Tsing Yi was dizzy by this slap, where did he dare to say anything, and immediately took out the array plate again.
"Poof!"
He spat a mouthful of essence blood onto the array, and three others did the same as him.
Four people, four arrays, four mouths of essence blood.
The array disc floated up after absorbing the essence and blood they had contributed, and one after another tricks were played out from the crowd in the field that had formed a formation at some point, and flew into the array plate.
Inexplicable fluctuations poured out from the array and swept across the entire Western Capital.
All the heavens refining the demon array, become!
