Chapter 31: The Death of Tang Liu
"Master Hu, it doesn't matter who I am, I just want to save this child's life, and please ask Childe to open up and forget everything today." Tang Liu turned his head to look at Hu Shangchen, not only did he call out Hu Shangchen's surname, but he also seemed to know his identity, and there was no trace of comfort.
"Why should I help you?"
"A piece of news, in exchange for a promise to you, I don't know if this is enough."
Hu Shangchen smiled coldly and said disapprerovingly: "Hmph, do you have any news worthy of me doing this." ”
"The news of a person who knows the truth of that incident sixteen years ago, I don't know if Lu Dao is enough?" As soon as Tang Liu's words came out, Hu Shangchen Huo had to stand up, and even the stool he was sitting on flipped backwards to the ground because he suddenly stood up.
"What did you say?" Hu Shangchen glared angrily at a pair of eyes, and a pair of big hands pinched Tang Liu's neck, his face hideous.
"Ahem, I just need a promise, and I'll tell you the news." Tang Liu smiled faintly, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his lips because of coughing.
"Good. I hope you won't lie to me, otherwise, I'll make your life worse than death. Hu Shangchen let go of Tang Liu's neck and took a step back, but he didn't forget to warn him.
"Thank you." Tang Liu said with a smile, turned to look at Feng Tianyu, bent down his straight waist, and knocked his forehead with three kowtows.
"Tang Liu, I didn't say I wanted to help you. If you dare to let San'er go, I will let him fend for himself, do you believe it or not? Feng Tianyu hated this feeling of not being controlled, this Tang Liu really should have eaten her, and actually acted like this.
"I don't believe it. Because girl, you are not such a person, if you can really leave San'er alone, you will not save him. Tang Liu grinned, and said so firmly.
"Then you can try to see if I'm such a person." Feng Tianyu raised his chin slightly and replied coldly, making himself look cold-blooded and ruthless, if he really threw San'er to her, then she would let him see what it meant to do what he said.
"If that's the case, then it's his life, and I won't blame you." Tang Liu's sentence was neither soft nor hard, which made Feng Tianyu feel very uncomfortable.
Tang Liu got up and looked at Hu Shangchen, although he didn't say anything, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, that is, let Hu Shangchen leave with him.
Watching Tang Liu and Hu Shangchen leave together, Feng Tianyu's heart was very confused, looking at San'er who had fallen asleep in his arms for a long time, and finally just turned into a light sigh.
"Tang Liu, you are ruthless enough." After Feng Tianyu sighed, gritted his teeth and said such a sentence, he motioned for the people waiting outside the house to come in, and took San'er to her room.
Hu Shangchen, who left with Tang Liu, followed silently, from the bamboo forest to the back mountain, walked a long way, and gradually entered the range of the deep mountain, just like this, walked for half an hour, only to see Tang Liu stop at a clearing on the top of the mountain.
The location here is just right to overlook the night view of the entire Tangshui Village, although the lights are not brilliant, but they are like stars spread on the ground swaying with their own light.
"Not leaving?" Hu Shangchen whispered in a deep voice.
"I've already arrived at the place, and I don't need to go any further. Ahem-" Tang Liu responded, a violent cough, slowly kneeling down with his back bent, and a burst of blood also spread, making Hu Shangchen immediately realize that something was wrong, and hurriedly took two steps forward, only to see Tang Liu covering his chest, the corners of his lips kept spraying blood foam, and the corners of his lips were glowing with a faint purple.
"You're poisoned!" Hu Shangchen's face turned pale, and he was about to reach into his arms, but Tang Liuyi grabbed his hand and shook his head.
"It's useless. This poison can't be cured, and I'm destined to live short. The reason why I have persevered until now is just to give you a promise. Don't you really want to know the truth about Lu Dao back then? I am the only one who knows the truth. ”
"For what?" Hu Shangchen endured the anger gushing in his chest, and forced these three words out of his teeth.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not your enemy. It's just the truth of what a passer-by witnessed by chance. If it weren't for San'er, I wouldn't have to tell you about this. ”
"Not necessary?" Hu Shangchen's voice changed slightly.
"Of course. Who are you, and what do I have to meddle with? It's your family affair, and sooner or later you'll know the truth, but sooner or later. ”
"Then you say."
"It's all just a scam, the person you're looking for isn't dead. According to my speculation, after the turmoil in the capital subsides, the person you meet should appear. You just have to wait patiently now. After Tang Liu said this, the strength of his body slowly fell to the ground as if it had been evacuated in an instant, looking up at the starry sky.
"Miss Feng is a good person, please don't hurt her. If I die, just throw me under the cliff at the other end, cough-cough-" Another mouthful of blood foam spurted out, and Tang Liu's breath became weaker.
"Who the hell are you?"
"A sinner-man who has taken someone else's identity—and has lived in secret!" Tang Liu had a faint smile on his face, but in the end, he died of poison.
Hu Shangchen looked at Tang Liu's corpse on the ground, with his many years of experience in martial arts, how could he not know that Tang Liu's strength was stronger than him, but he was still dead.
The wound on his chest was very serious, it should have been injured by a sharp weapon, and the poison should have come from a sharp weapon that injured him, only because of the timely treatment, coupled with his extraordinary internal strength, that he was able to hold on for so long.
As for who he died at, he couldn't judge based on these alone, if Yin Wen or Xuanyuan Lin were here, he might have seen something.
However, he didn't care about this, and he didn't need to know who wanted his life. He's here for the man's news.
If everything Tang Liu said was true, then was everything he had done all these years wrong?
"What is wrong, what is right? Anyway, from beginning to end I was just me and never changed. Didn't die? Scam? Then I'm going to see what it's all about. Hu Shangchen swept away the previous confusion and contradictions, and his eyes were resolute that he had never had. If Xuanyuan Lin and Yin Wen were here at this moment, they would definitely be able to find that Hu Shangchen, who was easy to get angry in the past, had disappeared, and at this moment he was a little more calm and a little less impulsive.
Throwing Tang Liu's body off the cliff, Hu Shangchen turned around and went back to the courtyard, and as soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he saw that Feng Tianyu Hall had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Do you want to know where Tang Liu went?" Hu Shangchen entered the flower hall, and without waiting for Feng Tianyu to speak, he explained the purpose of Feng Tianyu's visit.
"Is it convenient?"
"Nothing was inconvenient. Only, he died. ”
Feng Tianyu frowned slightly.
"You killed him?"
"You think I'm going to kill him?" Hu Shangchen smiled coldly, a flash of disdain flashed in his eyes.
"With your temper, it's not surprising that you have the wrong hand." Thinking of what happened at that time, it was reasonable for Feng Tianyu to have this guess.
