Volume 1 The Heart of a Young Man Chapter 76 The Murderer
Li Xiao didn't speak, half-squatting on the ground, staring closely at Long Tao not far away. Although he had a hunch that Long Tao would not only play with knives, so he tried his best in the morning to prepare a move to determine the winner, but the result was still unsatisfactory, he always felt that the true qi in his body was blocked by something, and he couldn't make it hard, otherwise the blow just now would be able to tell the winner.
I didn't have time to trace the reason, so I could only blame myself for not practicing weekdays.
"Whew." Li Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and looked around.
From the moment he and Long Tao ended, Li Xiao knew that something was wrong, there were no obstacles in the place where he was, it was empty, and if the person in the dark shot an arrow at him at this time, it would be difficult to dodge, so he needed to concentrate and stare ahead.
The rain in the sky is getting heavier and heavier, like ten thousand arrows in unison, hiding a murderous intention.
"Whoosh." Only an extremely faint sound was heard, and an arrow came from the west.
Fortunately, Li Xiao was focused, and when the arrow was fired, he was vigilant and dodged slightly sideways, but who knew that the arrow would explode in front of Li Xiao, and the powder was scattered, and there was no vision for a moment.
Li Xiao did not hesitate and waved his hand. It was also because of the rainy day, the powder did not cause much damage, only a temporary blindness.
But it was during this brief period of blindness that the man in the shadows seized the opportunity, quickly mounted the crossbow, concentrated, and fired.
Compared with the second arrow, the first one is more like a smoke bomb, and it doesn't have much lethality, Li Xiao also doubted this at first, why didn't the first arrow put much pressure on him, could it be that the person in the dark couldn't do it?
But when the second arrow appeared, Li Xiao knew that behind the false arrow was the real killing machine. Rao knew that the arrow appeared, but it was too late.
"Poof." Li Xiao dodged to the right, but unfortunately he was still shot in the shoulder by the arrow.
With a muffled snort, Li Xiao turned his head to look at his left shoulder, which had been hit by an arrow.
It hurts. Holding his injured shoulder, Li Xiao's legs weakened, took a few steps back, and half-knelt down. Bright red blood slowly flowed from his left shoulder, melted into the rain, and dyed his clothes red in an instant.
Li Xiao felt the pain in his left hand penetrate the bone marrow, and the constant fishy smell made him feel dizzy, this was the first time he was injured in 16 years, and it was also the first time he smelled the smell of blood donation since he was reborn.
It smells bad, Li Xiao doesn't like it, or rather, he is a little faint. But when I smell it, I smell it, and there is an excitement, a longing.
"Ahem." With a light cough, Li Xiao swallowed a pill, gritted his teeth and broke the short arrow on his shoulder, and it was also at this moment that a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his lips.
"Am I going to die?" Li Xiao gasped and asked for some reason.
To be honest, he didn't feel scared because of the arrow injury, on the contrary, his heart was very calm, so calm that he couldn't believe it, this was not a feeling that checkmate could only have.
Maybe it's because I've already experienced death, or maybe I've given up treatment, just like I did in my previous life.
Long Tao looked at Li Xiao, who was half-kneeling on the ground in front of him, grinned, turned his head sideways and nodded with satisfaction. At a critical time, the direct partner still has a role, he is indeed defeated by Li Xiao, and if he continues to fight, he will be subdued by Li Xiao sooner or later, but fortunately, there is also an archery master directly, who has a famous knife and a hidden arrow, which finally makes Li Xiao unable to guard against it.
It's just a pity that such a good seedling. If he is allowed to practice for a few years, it is estimated that there will be one more nine-rank master in Haoguo's martial arts.
Long Tao shook his head, and couldn't help but feel sorry for Li Xiao, they didn't know why the person behind them wanted to do it to such a young man, but unfortunately there was no way, they had a task to do, and Li Xiao was destined to not survive tonight.
"Let's get it done." The man in the shadows put away his bow and crossbow and said to Long Tao.
Li Xiao is indeed strong, over the years, they have had countless missions, but tonight's task is the first time he has used up all the crossbow arrows, and he has used the special smoke arrows made by the procuratorate.
It's not easy for a teenager to be like this.
Long Tao nodded, licked his dry lips, lifted the knife, and slowly walked towards Li Xiao, in his eyes, Li Xiao at this time was already meat on the chopping board, without any threat. After all, the arrow is not only an arrow, but also some special medicine on it.
Li Xiao lowered his head and covered his shoulders, but did not move.
In this moment of life and death, Li Xiao did not resist, just kneeling half-kneeling, unable to see the expression on his face clearly.
"I'm going to die again." Li Xiao smiled gloomily in his heart.
Yes, I'm going to die again, but last time I was in a car accident and I chose to die, but this time I was hit by an arrow, and he killed. In fact, there is no difference, they are all dead, there is no difference.
"Do you want to die?" Suddenly, a voice sounded in my heart. It's the same voice that came out that day at the poetry meeting.
"Who are you?" This question again, Li Xiao laughed at himself and asked again.
"I'm you." The voice did not tire of answering again.
"Who am I?" Li Xiao asked. He doesn't know who he is, in other words, who he is, whether he is a terminally ill boy in his previous life or a son of Suzhou in this life, he doesn't know.
The voice did not continue to answer Li Xiao's question, paused for a moment, and asked again, "Do you want to die?" ”
Do you want to die? Do you want to die? …… This question kept surrounding Li Xiao's ears.
Yes, do you want to die, a normal person doesn't want to die, they all want to live, only by living can there be hope, and only by living can there be a future. Of course, Li Xiao also wants to live, but it's so difficult, as Sun Miao's apprentice, how can he not feel that the arrow is poisonous.
He didn't know who sent the two people who came to kill him now, whether it was the Cai family, or the Wan family, or maybe the people in the plan, but none of these matters anymore, at least not now.
"Do you want to die?" The voice asked again.
A little annoyed, Li Xiao clenched his hands, he was annoyed by the repeated questions of this voice, he didn't want to die, he didn't want to die, but in this case, how could he decide whether he wanted to die or not, the posture of these two people obviously didn't want him to live.
"I want to live." Li Xiao lowered his head and spoke lightly.
"Then kill them!"
Long Tao, who was holding the knife, was stunned for a moment, and wondered in his heart, is this begging for mercy, but it's not like it.
It's really not like it, from beginning to end, Li Xiao has always maintained this half-kneeling posture, without any movement, let alone saying anything, and now when he was about to cut it down, he suddenly said such a sentence, which is a bit strange.
Seeing that Long Tao didn't make a move, the accomplice standing in the distance frowned, thinking that he had compassion again, and couldn't bear to attack such a pretty young man, so he said impatiently: "Hurry up, we don't have much time." ”
Long Tao shook his head, shook off the rain on his face, clenched the long knife with both hands, raised his hand, and prepared to cut it.
At this moment, Li Xiao, who was half-kneeling on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes, rolled to the right, and dodged Long Tao's knife.
This roll made Long Tao's face full of shock, how could it be possible, it stands to reason that the dose of poison on the arrow is enough to poison an eight-rank master, how can the young man in front of him still have such skills when he is injured and poisoned, is it possible that he has more than eight grades. Impossible, impossible, for hundreds of years, Li Xiao, who has been a master of the ninth grade at this age, has not yet been born, even if it is Chu Yi back then, he does not have such talent, but if it is not the ninth grade, how can he have enough true qi to resist this poison from the East Factory.
Li Xiao really doesn't have the skills of the ninth grade, and he doesn't know how many grades he belongs to, and he can resist this poison, just because Sun Miao often fed all kinds of rare and exotic herbs when he was a child, the poison is indeed violent, but only for a moment.
A burst of rolling made Li Xiao's shoulder feel a piercing pain again, and he snorted, and his long rain-soaked hair scattered wantonly.
Long Tao shook the long knife in his hand, and the raindrops on it scattered and splashed in all directions. Li Xiao's struggle-like return made him feel a wave of annoyance, and several times in a row, this small teenager was hitting his heart, making him doubt himself.
"Ge Laozi." Long Tao scolded, and rushed towards Li Xiao with a knife, like a beast, unstoppable.
The rain is slow, but the knife is fast. Long Tao used all his strength and slashed hard. In his eyes, this knife will kill.
"Bang, bang, bang......" In the distance, a heavy bell rang from Wan'an Temple, and on a rainy night, it spread farther and farther.
Suddenly, Li Xiao moved, and when the bell rang five times, he moved. The movement is fast, and he dodges the knife sideways.
Long Tao did not pause and continued to swing the knife, but at this time, his movements were as slow as a snail in Li Xiao's eyes.
I saw Li Xiao stretch out his left hand, choke Long Tao's knife-holding hand, and pressed it violently, Long Tao screamed in pain, and the knife-holding hand lost its strength for a moment. Immediately afterwards, Li Xiao Kuaiyu stretched out his right hand, grabbed the long knife that was out of control, and swung it diagonally upward, and then heard a scream, and Long Tao's right hand was cut off with a knife.
It didn't end, taking advantage of the moment when Long Tao screamed, Li Xiao held a knife in his hand and slashed through Long Tao's neck lightly, without a pause.
The rain was falling heavily and falling on the body with a crackling sound. Li Xiao couldn't stand the pain on his shoulder, and snorted.
Long Tao slowly turned around, covering his neck, his eyes widened, one hand trembled and pointed at Li Xiao, and then looked at the blood on his hand, and then fell backwards, lifeless.
"I killed someone?"
Li Xiao looked at the long knife he was holding in his hand, and subconsciously looked at Long Tao, who had fallen to the ground and was lifeless, his body couldn't help but tremble, his heart was originally quite calm, but at this moment, he was jumping rapidly, and everything around him seemed to become blurred.
"Bang." The long knife fell to the ground, Li Xiao was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps back.
"I didn't think about killing, I really didn't think about it. I didn't kill it, I didn't ......," Li Xiao repeated these words.
He was afraid, he was afraid, his heart was full of uneasiness. Killed, this is the first time in his two lives that he has killed someone, he doesn't know why he kills, he doesn't think about killing.
"Prosperity, democracy, civilization and harmony; freedom, equality, justice, the rule of law; Patriotism, dedication, integrity, friendliness, ......" Li Xiao gasped, his eyes widened and he looked at his trembling hands, and kept reciting these twenty-four words silently in his heart, not noticing the wound on his left shoulder at this time, because his series of counterattacks were constantly bleeding.
But it didn't seem to be working, his whole body was shaking, I don't know if it was cold or something else.
A thunderbolt flashed, and Li Xiao's eyes suddenly darkened, snorted, and fell down with a shaking.
