Just as the knife himself requested, he was sent on his way without letting him feel much pain and suffering.

Zhao Huchen's technique on animals was not bad, gently wiping his neck a second before he felt the suffocating pain in his brain, the dagger blade pierced his temple, ending his world before the pain.

If Zhao Huchen's human anatomy is correct, he should have felt a slight chill in his neck before his death, and then the whole world would be pitch black, and then, there would be no then, and his consciousness would not have had time to dissipate, because the short and fatal injury had made his brain no longer able to work.

It's like a film that comes to an abrupt end, from dynamic to static. A scumbag who has been alive for more than 40 years, has killed a lot of people, robbed people, robbed others, and also tied up others and threw them into the river, and has done all kinds of angry and resentful bastard things, but he got a good end that even Zhao Huchen, the executioner, found ironic, at least he was very relaxed when he left.

On the verge of death, the body of the knife still maintained a sitting posture on the dockside, Zhao Huchen threw the dagger into the sea, squatted next to him and smoked the remaining small half pack of cigarettes fiercely, and finally patted the scattered soot on his body and pushed the body of the knife into the sea, and Zhao Huchen, who turned to leave, only heard the sound of heavy objects falling into the water in the dark, and was soon covered by the sound of the waves, and disappeared into eternal silence.

In the car, Zhao Huchen dialed Yang Ting's number, and it was connected after only two rings, obviously Yang Ting was also waiting for his news.

"He died, he didn't feel pain, it was a relief." Zhao Huchen said lightly.

Yang Ting, who was on the other side, was silent for a while, and then simply spit out a sentence: "Come to Phoenix Mountain." ”

Although the traffic flow of Mingzhu at night is significantly reduced compared with the daytime, it still seems to be very congested, and it took almost two hours for Zhao Huchen to rush to Phoenix Mountain, and at the bottom of the mountain, Zhao Huchen saw Yang Ting's car and the ugly man who followed Yang Ting, but Yang Ting was not there. Parking the car to the side, the ugly man pointed to the mountain road without speaking, Zhao Huchen nodded and walked along the mountain road to Phoenix Mountain.

After walking for about 20 minutes, Zhao Huchen saw Yang Ting sitting in the pavilion on a small hill on Panshan Road.

Zhao Huchen touched the pocket on his body, the pack of cigarettes he had just bought before was also smoked out in the process of listening to the knife, he rushed down the mountain without saying a word, found a convenience store that was still open, and bought a Liqun up.

Back and forth, when Zhao Huchen returned to the pavilion, it was already early in the morning.

Yang Ting took a pack of Liqun from Zhao Huchen's hand, unpacked it and ordered one, and then threw one to Zhao Huchen, and leaned over for the first time before lighting Zhao Huchen before sitting back in his place.

Yang Ting took a deep breath of smoke, and when he spit out a string of smoke, he raised his eyelids to look at Zhao Huchen, who was smoking a cigarette, and suddenly smiled: "Does Huchen understand Feng Shui?" ”

"I've learned a little, and I'm not proficient, but I can do a little bit." Zhao Huchen nodded and said. He believes in God, so he does not resist Feng Shui, which seems to ordinary people to be more suspenseful, and even has a more enthusiastic attitude than most other disciplines.

"It is appropriate to understand a little feng shui, people should dabble in a little miscellaneous, and this feng shui is something that can benefit oneself, and if you believe in it, you may not have it if you don't believe it, and it is the kind of thing that would rather believe in it. Feng Shui Feng Shui, what has been passed down by our ancestors for thousands of years must have a certain truth. Most of the people now look down on these so-called pseudo-science, and they all think that this is just a trick to deceive, but in fact, to talk about it, the division of the Pearl region, and even the layout of the capital [***], the Forbidden City, and the Imperial Mausoleum, there are profound exquisiteness everywhere. Yang Ting surprised Zhao Huchen by not pulling the topic to knives or those past things, maybe he didn't think it was necessary, or maybe he didn't think it was to the point of letting him get in touch with these old things, all in all, Yang Ting didn't say it, and Zhao Huchen wouldn't take the initiative to mention it without interest.

The relationship between the two is a bit similar to the relationship between the ancient emperor and the crown prince, Yang Ting regards Zhao Huchen as his successor, but in any case, Zhao Huchen has not completely taken over the power, so he must maintain a cautious mentality, and guarding against arrogance and rashness is precisely the core four words.

"I have seen a sentence in the "Book of Burials" before, saying that the perfect feng shui environment is the northern Xuanwu hanging its head, the southern vermilion bird soaring and dancing, the eastern green dragon meandering, and the western white tiger taming. Later, I printed this general outline to look at the feng shui of the pearl, but found that the feng shui of the pearl is good, but there is always something missing, what is wrong, I am really not deep in this line, and I can't see a general idea. Zhao Huchen sat next to Yang Ting, standing on the pavilion on the top of Phoenix Mountain, looking at the location of the Pearl City in the distance through the layers of mountain barriers, and frowned.

"Feng Shui is of course very different from mathematics, chemistry, physics, and other disciplines in the usual sense, as long as there is talent in mathematics, a genius can be created in a very short time, of course, the real masters are not among them. A few days ago, Su Meiniang took you to Tianma Mountain, where the old Nalan immortal is known as the half-immortal who is still alive in China today. Don't believe me, I'll tell you one thing and you'll know. ”

"Fifty years ago, the central government officially decided to abolish the Songjiang Prefecture of Jiangsu Province, and the two counties of Songjiang and Jinshan were transferred from Suzhou to Mingzhu City, that is, the formal issuance and entry into force of this document made the Pearl have a real meaning of the mountain in the administration, the six mountains of the "Jinshan Group" in the southwest, the "Songjun Nine Peaks" in the west, and the Baoshan in the northeast, giving the Pearl the perfect Kun, Dui, and Gen three directions of the mountain. There are also several groups of mountains in the east and southeast seas. Shanghai has also acquired good feng shui. Therefore, Jiangsu Province's resentment of the pearl has always been the heaviest among the provinces, these jokes will be put aside, let's talk about the root of this document, at that time this resolution was a comprehensive consideration of many opinions, and from which the decisive role was the old man Nalan at that time to the leader of the time a sentence, the pearl lacks mountains, the foundation is unstable. Yang Ting seemed to be interested, and when he spoke, he smoked a cigarette to the end and naturally smoked another one to continue the fire, the mountain wind on the mountain was not small, and it was even colder at night, squinting his eyes towards the outside of the mountain, the cold wind was whistling, and the sound of salsa in the mountains and forests was mixed with a fresh earthy smell, and Yang Ting, who was originally in a dull mood, was also a lot more cheerful.

"There is a saying in Feng Shui, a country without mountains is not complete. A city without mountains is not strong. There are no mountains in a land, and it is not thick. A family without mountains and uneasy. Does the perfect feng shui pattern in the Book of Burials exist? Of course there is, but no matter how big China is, there are only a few places that can be called perfect feng shui treasures, the most obvious of which is the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum in the south and the north, where some clues can be found in the "Nine Palaces and Cities" and "Five Cities and Twelve Floors". What has been called the best feng shui treasure in China since ancient times? It is called the land of Longxing, and the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor is the land of the source of the dragon, and the source of Yanhuang is said to be suppressed in this place, and the fourth is the place where the nine palaces and gossip cities are formed in four square kilometers. ”

Yang Ting glanced at Zhao Huchen through the smoke with playful eyes, and suddenly said with a smile: "When will you take me to your ancestral tomb to see, if you can produce such a kid, it is estimated that the feng shui on your ancestral tomb is also amazing." ”

Zhao Huchen was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Yang Ting to suddenly pull the topic to this, he smiled bitterly: "What ancestral grave is not ancestral grave, I don't know who is in addition to knowing that my surname is Zhao, if I really say that there is my grandfather's grave, to be honest, the cemetery was picked by my grandfather himself before his death, and my grandmother's grave together, just in a small mountain col, it is not feng shui or feng shui, according to what his old man said, the blessing of the ancestors is dying and the next four generations will be thin, No matter how good the treasure is, it can't withstand the spoils of an unworthy descendant, so people still have to rely on themselves. ”

"It's the truth." Yang Ting nodded and said with a smile.

"But having a good father is much superior to ordinary people after all, it's right to rely on yourself, don't be too stubborn, don't be overly stubborn, don't keep it in your heart if you can reach out to others with some things, what are elders used for? Isn't it just for wiping the butt of the offspring, you don't have a good father or a good mother like me, but you have two things that are much better than me, the first is that you have a much deeper foundation than me at the beginning, which you have accumulated bit by bit since childhood. The second is that you go out of the countryside and are in the pearl, you have me to support you, and your son-in-law is half a son, and I, Yang Ting, will treat you as my own son. China's ground is big, and there are a lot of awesome characters, and I'm afraid that those who are really awesome in the whole China don't even know that I'm a hair, but in Mingzhu, I can always help you some. There's not much I can do, but I can help you, and I'll definitely do what I can. ”

Yang Ting's heartfelt words made Zhao Huchen silent, raised his eyelids, and just as a gust of wind rose, the cold and dry mountain wind whistled between the two, and felt that his eyes were blown sour by the mountain wind, Zhao Huchen naturally blinked his eyes, and looked again, but found that he still couldn't understand this man hidden in the dark.

"People, the more you climb up, the smaller the circle around you will be, just like the pyramid, at the bottom you can have a large group of people around you to help you, grab you by the hand and lift your feet to pull you up, but no one saw it, the top of the pyramid is a little bit bigger, the territory is big, and it will be smaller in the middle, and it will definitely be impossible to stand on the top so many people to go up, so in the process of climbing up, you must not only trample your enemies under your feet, but even learn to push the people around you down the pyramid when necessary, The abyss is good or never turn over, no matter how good the brother is, it is someone else, today you didn't do it at the wrong time, tomorrow you are the stone under the feet of others, and the enemy is really stabbing for food and eating, this is not cruel, the real cruelty is that you must always be vigilant from the knife from the side and behind you, and hold the murder weapon in your own hand and be ready to insert it into the brother who is the knife for you at any time, so this society is cruel, not just a lip service. Originally, I thought that you would be able to figure out these things one day without me saying it, but I was afraid, afraid that you wouldn't understand it or get into a dead end. ”

Yang Ting stepped on the cigarette butt in that place and stood up, turned around and faced a mountain gap, which happened to be in the direction of the Pearl City, standing here and looking at the past, it seemed that he could see the colorful lights that were spread out in the far distance.

"Climb high, fall down and fall more and more badly, if you can, I would rather you suffer some setbacks now, at least you make a big mistake now, I can help you correct and remedy it, and you can't poke much of a basket if you are in the sky, so even the consequences are what you can bear, so I leave a lot of things to you to solve and take care of, I also know that according to your cleverness can understand my intentions. I'm worried that your heart will be arrogant, and you will climb high and go far in the future, and then fall down again, it will be a lifetime thing, and others will be powerless no matter how much they have the heart. Yang Ting, who can absorb most of the city's outline at a glance, didn't turn his head to look at Zhao Huchen with a thoughtful and dignified face, tonight's words would never have been said so bluntly, experience this thing is the same as a story, listening to others will always be just a mouthful and ears to enjoy, if you don't experience it yourself, you can only listen to the story of others who have told it for a lifetime is just the story itself.

Zhao Huchen listened word by word in his ears and remembered it in his heart, he knew what he needed most now, in this prosperous city, he didn't have much to show off to teach others with a face of vicissitudes, and at the same time he also knew that these words were indeed Yang Ting's words in his heart, if he hadn't died today, standing on this Phoenix Mountain, I am afraid that Yang Ting would not have said these words to him.

"I remember." Zhao Huchen said softly, standing a little further back beside Yang Ting, his eyes looked over, and he saw the outline of most of the city.

"Just remember, your surname is more suitable for survival in this society than me, you know how to look behind people and behind people from the beginning, and it took me a long time to understand this sentence, so you have more capital than me, and you are more productive than me, I hope you can climb higher than me, go farther than me, China, it's very big!" Yang Ting patted Zhao Huchen on the shoulder and pulled him to stand beside him, the two men stood side by side, facing the fierce mountain wind, and the rivers and mountains were infinite.

China is big, really big.
