Chapter 145: The Death of Joseph Finale
Ji Zexi turned sideways slightly, half-blocking Mo Yuanyuan behind him.
Joseph clenched the long knife in his hand and laughed.
Ji Zexi frowned, worried that he would say something inappropriate.
Mo Yuanyuan tightened the handle of the hoe, ready to attack it when he was slightly wrong.
"It looks like I won't survive today," Joseph murmured in a low voice.
Then he raised his voice, "Commander Ji, go back to the Star Alliance and help me bring a good relationship with your father, just say that I have earned more than twenty years of life." β
Joseph had always known Ji Qiuhuan's hatred for him, but because of Meng Yuhan, he couldn't do it for a long time.
Ji Zexi's brows tightened a little, "My father has passed away." β
Joseph's eyes widened in surprise and hurriedly asked, "What about Meng Yuhan?" β
"He died of a sudden illness," Ji Zexi didn't want to mention this, he was worried that Joseph would say something that didn't have it, let Mo Yuanyuan know the truth about the death of her parents, and make her hate her father.
Although he didn't want Joseph to speak again, because Mo Yuanyuan was by his side, he didn't want to make any moves to arouse her suspicion.
Joseph laughed, his voice noticeably brighter.
"It's good, I didn't expect these two old friends to come ahead of me, and even if I die at your hands today, I won't be wronged, anyway, I have nothing now, and sooner or later there will be such a day," said Joseph, as if sleepwalking with his eyes on the top of the mine.
Mo Yuanyuan's eyes glared at him, what was he talking about? How could the leader of the alliance and General Ji be friends with this notorious butcher?
Mo Yuanyuan turned her head to look at Ji Zexi, wanting to find an answer from him, but Ji Zexi avoided her clear eyes by the dim light.
Mo Yuanyuan frowned slightly, feeling even more that something was wrong.
Joseph smiled and seemed to speak.
Ji Zexi didn't want him to reveal more. With a flick of his long legs, the figure quickly approached Joseph.
Joseph looked at Ji Zexi with a smile, and suddenly he threw the dagger high, and the cold edge swirled under the illumination of the miner's lamp, and flew diagonally towards Ji Zexi's front door.
Ji Zexi dodged the shocking knife light sideways, and slammed his long fingers into a fist into Joseph's chest.
Joseph clasped his arms. Desperate to stop the attack with a subtle whistling sound.
Ji Zexi's blow was originally out with hatred. The fist was sandwiched with a cold wind, and it struck between Joseph's elbows, after the collision of flesh and blood. The impact slammed Joseph into the stone wall behind him.
Joseph bowed down in pain, and the sharp pain in his back and the numbness of his arm after the crunch of his arm made him feel disheartened.
The arm was broken, and Joseph was well aware of his injuries.
smiled bitterly. In the end, he is still old, and the butcher who once dominated the Star Alliance is against the young man in his prime. I can't even handle it anymore.
Fortunately, he is not at a loss, at least this young man in his prime will accompany him and sleep here forever.
Knowing that this new star of the Covenant will fall here. This made him know that he was going to die, and a faint pleasure rose in his heart......
There was a faint sound above her head, and Mo Yuanyuan looked up.
The laser daggers on the rafters that supported the depths of the mine trembled, and the slightest light flickered incessantly.
Mo Yuanyuan's eyes widened suddenly. shouted: "Zexi, come here, the mine is going to collapse." β
Ji Zexi's body moved slightly. Seems to be leaving.
How could Joseph let him get his wish, he pounced hard, and his tall body hugged Ji Zexi.
Ji Zexi reflexively dodged back, but after all, he was a step slower, although his body dodged, one foot was firmly held by Joseph who threw himself in the air.
"Hurry up, the rafters won't last long," Mo Yuanyuan looked at the large and small stones that fell one after another, shouted eagerly, and then ran towards him.
"Don't come here," Ji Zexi shouted as he looked at the falling stones.
Mo Yuanyuan's feet moved slightly, wanting to rush over to help.
"Don't come here, stay away and wait for me, you know my speed, don't worry," Ji Zexi comforted Mo Yuanyuan while trying to break free from Joseph's grip.
Joseph concentrated all his strength on his arms, holding his feet firmly, and a triumphant smile on his lips.
Ji Zexi kicked his arms hard, trying to break free as much as possible.
But Joseph was determined to die, and although his mouth and nose had begun to bleed, his arm was still holding on to it, refusing to let go.
Large stones began to roll down, and the rafters clicked twice, and then the stones collapsed like a sluice gate bursting the embankment.
Mo Yuanyuan watched the boulder fall in front of her, and Ji Zexi's figure was buried in it in an instant.
"Zexi, Zexi......" Mo Yuanyuan hurriedly ran to the stone, stirring the stone indiscriminately, she thought her voice was very loud, but in fact it was just a subtle murmur.
It was quiet inside, and there was not a sound.
Mo Yuanyuan's eyes were hot, and crystal tears slid down her face.
The stones were stacked large and small, and Ji Zexi glanced coldly at Joseph, who was buried half of his body by the stone.
The faint light of the miner's lamp slanted on the gravel, and Joseph opened his eyes dying and looked at Ji Zexi, who was not far away.
Ji Zexi glanced at him, forcefully pulled out the foot he was holding around with his arms, and reached out and began to lift the stone.
Seeing his actions, Joseph chuckled and said, "Mo Yuanyuan probably doesn't know how her parents died, right?" You interrupted me just now to hide that your father was also one of the murderers of her parents, right? β
Ji Zexi glanced at him, didn't say a word, and his subordinates continued to carry stones.
Blood spilled from the corners of Joseph's mouth, and the lower half of his body was buried under the stones, knowing that he had not long lived.
"Hehe, you said that if I told her about this, what do you think would happen to her? Will you regret being with you? Will it leave you? Joseph's face was covered in blood, but there was a smug and twisted smile on his indistinct countenance.
Ji Zexi knew that he had been in contact with Meng Yuhan all these years, and knew that things between them were easy.
But since Mo Yuanyuan has forgotten the unpleasantness in the past, he can only go with the flow, and it is good that he can't think of it, at least he won't be sad and embarrassed about these things; But if she remembered. He was delighted. If she complains and resents her father for these things, he is willing to do something for her, as long as she can forgive her father for his unintentional mistake, after all, his father has been guilty and blamed himself for this matter for many years.
But Joseph, who really didn't want these things to come out of the mouth of this wicked man, made him sick and angry.
Picking up a weighty stone in his hand, Ji Zexi looked down at Joseph for a long time. Then the long fingers are slightly loose. The stones fall heavily in response to gravity.
There was a 'snap', and the stone fell firmly on Joseph's head, and Joseph did not make a sound.
Ji Zexi quietly watched the blood slowly spread over the stone. Flowing towards the stone, after a moment of silence, he turned to move the stone again.
Mo Yuanyuan finally calmed down, shouted several times, and after seeing that there was no response, she didn't say anything again. It's just that the hands are moving faster and faster.
The stones are stacked large and small, and Mo Yuanyuan is a woman in the end. Although she has undergone military training, she is still inferior to a man when it comes to strength.
At first, she moved, but then she couldn't move, so she used a small hoe to hook and move outward step by step, and then she didn't even have the strength to hold the hoe, so she slowly pushed it with her hands little by little.
The white fingers were scraped in the move. Slowly dripping with blood, Mo Yuanyuan didn't seem to know the pain at all.
The bloodshot became noticeable after intense friction, and soon the breach became more and more numerous and larger. Dust mixed with fine stones grinded, and in a moment her fingers and palms were a blur of blood.
Ten fingers to heart. The severe pain was inevitable, but no amount of pain could not tie up the pain in her heart, clenching her teeth, Mo Yuanyuan held back her strength, and the idea of moving the stones blocking the entrance of the cave supported her to move the stones away little by little.
On the other hand, Ji Zexi is also making unremitting efforts.
Although there were many stones, it was only this small area that collapsed, and soon the efforts of the two sides paid off.
I don't know how long later, there was a 'bang', and the boulder that had been firmly blocked at the entrance of the cave fell, revealing a half-human-high gap on it.
Mo Yuanyuan looked at it in a daze for a while, then she woke up, and after climbing up with her hands and feet, she hurriedly looked inside through the gap.
Ji Zexi, who was a few meters away, threw away the stones in his hand, looked up at her black and gray faces, and showed a bright smile.
Mo Yuanyuan couldn't help sobbing in surprise, Ji Zexi jumped up to the top of the stone pile in a few steps, carefully escorting her and slowly walking outside.
Out of the collapsed hole, Mo Yuanyuan shook, and a trace of prostration flashed on her face.
Fortunately, Ji Zexi reacted quickly, and dragged Joseph to move in when the stone came down again, although she was confident in his reaction and speed, but when she remembered the scene just now, she still couldn't stop shaking.
Ji Zexi hugged her shoulders, kissed her cheek gently, and said in a low voice, "Thank you." β
Mo Yuanyuan hugged his waist and leaned on his arms with peace of mind, listening to his powerful heartbeat, feeling the joy of this lost and regained, her mood calmed down a little.
It was already dark outside, and the soldiers, after a short search to no avail, chose to seal off the entrance to the cave.
There are only two openings in the mine, which also makes the people inside have no choice but to get out of here, if they don't want to starve to death.
Mo Yuanyuan and the others also had no choice but to return the same way after some investigation.
The soldiers were loaded and loaded at the entrance of the hole, with obvious hostility towards the two.
"Can you please recognize me responsibly?" After a short confrontation, Ji Zexi was the first to speak.
The soldiers glanced at each other, and one of them ran briskly into the distance.
After a while, a group of people came over.
The soldiers hurriedly dodged a path, and Lilith walked over in military uniform.
When the queen received the news of Hagers's death, she was over-grieved and had a sudden head attack, and Feth was too young to deal with these matters.
Lilith is the heir to the throne in the current era, so the matter is left to her.
The entrance to the cave was brightly lit by strong lights.
Mo Yuanyuan squinted at Lilith with a haggard face and red eyes, let go of the hand holding Ji Zexi, she took a few steps forward, "Princess Lilith." β
Lilith grimaced and glanced at Mo Yuanyuan detachedly, "Can you explain why you came here?" β
Mo Yuanyuan sighed, "Joseph killed my best friend, I can't let him continue to get away with it, so ......"
Lilith glanced at her, "I hate Joseph's cruelty, but that doesn't mean you can come here without permission, this is my royal brother's territory. β
Mo Yuanyuan bowed her head slightly and didn't speak again.
On the side, Ji Zexi said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Joseph has committed a lot of crimes, but he is protected by your imperial brother, I am worried that you will not be able to sanction him, so we are good at making claims, we are sorry for this, and we are willing to compensate for this." It's just that your imperial brother doesn't seem to know much about the nature of the star thief, coupled with his strong temperament, I admire his spirit of preferring to be broken, and of course, I am also very sad about his death. β
Lilith's face changed after listening to him, he knew that most of the reasons for Hagers's death were related to him, but after all, it was his brother, and her love was inevitably excited.
"I'm sorry, we didn't save His Highness," Mo Yuanyuan also felt uncomfortable.
Lilith shook her head, "It's none of your business. β
She had already heard from Hagers's cronies about the specific things, and if Hagers was not too ambitious, he would not have been instigated by Joseph, and he would not have been exploited by Joseph and finally died.
Ji Zexi stepped forward, "Mourning." β
Lilith nodded politely in response.
Although the responsibility is not theirs, it is ultimately about them, and Lilith does not want to see them again, at least not yet.
Although she represents the Colin Empire, she is also a person, a girl who is only eighteen years old.
Seeing her brother lying there cold, and seeing these two lively Star Covenant people shaking in front of her eyes, it made her feel uncomfortable.
"The royal brother died, and there are some matters that I need to deal with, so I won't keep the two."
Lilith's vague meaning, Ji Zexi and the two immediately understood.
"Then we will go first, we deeply regret Brother Ling's death, if your country has any needs that can come to the Star Alliance, I will do my best," Ji Zexi nodded with a heavy face, and left with Mo Yuanyuan.
Lilith let out a long breath as she watched the plane glide through the sky.
With Ji Zexi's words, presumably Star Alliance will relax the terms of the contract with Cheng DΓΉ, right?
If the death of the imperial brother can be exchanged for the happiness and well-being of millions of people in the Colin Empire, presumably he will be happy in heaven as well.
Mo Yuanyuan drove the fighter plane and walked side by side with Ji Zexi, although the two of them are now described as wolves, but they are relieved in their hearts.
A member of the royal family of the Colin Empire, the most belligerent is Higers, now that he is dead, there is no one in the Colin Empire to fight, the Star Alliance has no intention of raising troops on a large scale, and the era of friendship with the Colin Empire in the future is coming.
And as soldiers, their biggest dream is that there will be no war, their comrades will not shed blood and sacrifice, and their families can live happily and contentedly, which is enough.
However, having said that, if they have the intention to provoke, then they will not be afraid, and every inch of the Star Alliance will not be allowed to be encroached upon.
Ji Zexi and Mo Yuanyuan looked at each other and smiled, and in a bright future, they will create zΓ o together. (ENDS) (To be continued.) )
