Twenty-nine, the beginning of the matter - the end (and the end)
Mother Wang watched Lin Jing and the two leave, looking at the slightly exposed white fish belly in the sky, Mother Wang sighed softly, and then slowly walked out of the room.
On that day, there were two blockbuster news in Linqing Mansion, one was the head snake of Linqing Mansion, which was destroyed in a fire, and its owner did not know what to do, and Xu Heng, the big housekeeper of the Silver Hook Gambling House, disappeared together, and the other news was that Listening to Yuxuan was disbanded, no one knew why, but listening to Yuxuan's frequent customers, when he went to listen to Yuxuan, he found that the signboard had been changed, and everyone in Listening to Yuxuan before did not know what to do, as if it had never appeared.
These two things made the people of the entire Linqing Mansion discuss for more than half a year, until the place that was once burned down was rebuilt with new houses, and the new owner opened a new business there, and this turmoil was completely dissipated from the surface of the Linqing Mansion, and it is unknown whether there was anyone discussing this matter in private.
Let's not talk about the whereabouts of everyone in Yuxuan for the time being, just talk about what happened after Xu Heng fought hard to become a waste person and put Dong Tiankuo out.
Linqing Mansion, ten miles away, in the deep woods, two figures appeared, looking at them as if one was carrying another person on his back, but the person was in a hurry, as if he was avoiding some danger.
The man carried another person on his back, and after walking a few steps, because of the floating under his feet, he did not step on one foot, and he fell directly to the ground, and the person behind him also fell to the ground.
"Boss, boss, you're all right."
This person is Xu Heng, and the person who was thrown out is also one of the people in the Linqing Mansion for half a year, Dong Tiankuo.
Xu Heng swallowed the "Huitian Pill" before, and now it is the time when the effect of the medicine is about to pass, his physical strength is already a little unable to keep up, coupled with the failure of the effect of the "Huitian Pill", the whole person is like a puddle of mud at this time, and he fell to the ground softly, but his eyes kept looking at Dong Tiankuo's direction, and Xu Heng's hand kept scratching there, he wanted to climb to Dong Tiankuo's side to see how his owner was doing now.
But he failed, his five fingers kept scratching on the ground, no matter how hard he tried, Xu Heng's body showed no signs of moving, but the wound on his shoulder that was cut by Liu Feng's knife momentum actually began to crack, and bright red blood slowly flowed out from the wound on his shoulder, and then stained the land under him red.
"The ······ of the Owner" Xu Heng looked weakly at Dong Tiankuo not far away, he was worried about the other party's life and death.
It seemed that Dong Tiankuo heard Xu Heng's obsession, his hand moved slightly, and then as if he had woken up from a nightmare, he suddenly started, and then kept waving his arms, and kept shouting in his mouth, "You are not allowed to come, this is mine, this is mine!" ”
Xu Heng saw that Dong Tiankuo had woken up, and it seemed that the pain on his body had become insignificant, and then he whispered softly: "Dongjia." ”
Dong Tiankuo heard Xu Heng's "owner", and then suddenly realized that he was not dreaming.
Xu ······ Constant ······" Dong Tiankuo looked at Xu Heng, and then slowly squeezed out two words from his mouth, his eyes were still a little wandering, and he didn't seem to have fully woken up from his dream.
Xu Heng smiled, it was a heartfelt smile, Dong Tiankuo had nothing to do, so his pain was nothing.
"Why are we here?" Dong Tiankuo still doesn't seem to have really come out of his dream.
Xu Heng sighed heavily, did not speak, his body slumped on the ground, still without any strength, Xu Heng no longer struggled, but moved his body slightly, so that it was in a more comfortable position. Xu Heng didn't know how to answer Dong Tiankuo's question, or he couldn't bear to tell him that everything in the Linqing Mansion was ruined, and all he could do seemed to be silent at this time.
Silence is a kind of escape, and Xu Heng chose this way of escape.
Dong Tiankuo saw that Xu Heng didn't answer himself, but he just felt that there seemed to be something missing in his mind, he shook his head, and then rubbed his somewhat swollen forehead to make himself a little sober.
After Xu Heng rescued Dong Tiankuo from Liu Feng, Dong Tiankuo fell asleep, and it wasn't until Dong Tiankuo woke up just now.
"What about the gambling house? What about our people? Where have they all gone? Dong Tiankuo stood up from the ground tremblingly, looking at his messy clothes, and the hair that was scattered behind him, like a madman's hair, Dong Tiankuo's mind seemed to have some fragmentary memories, and they began to pour in, but the memories were still very fragmentary, and they did not make Dong Tiankuo completely remember the previous things.
Dong Tiankuo looked at Xu Heng, who was slumped to the ground, and then asked, "Why are we here?" ”
"The ······ of the Owner" Xu Heng wanted to tell the truth of the matter, but when the words came to his lips, he still didn't say it in the end.
Xu Heng couldn't bear it, at least he didn't want to hurt Dong Tiankuo because of the words that came out of his mouth.
Dong Tiankuo seemed to have thought of something, and actually smiled at Xu Heng, and then no longer dwelled on why the two were here, but told each other about what he had just thought of.
"Xu Heng, I actually dreamed in my dream that our gambling house was destroyed, destroyed by a fire."
Xu Heng didn't dare to look at Dong Tiankuo's eyes, but turned his face to the side with difficulty, trying to avoid contact with Dong Tiankuo, he was really afraid of seeing Dong Tiankuo know that this was not the painful appearance after the dream.
Dong Tiankuo laughed, and then gradually his smile disappeared, and he seemed to remember a lot of things again.
Many memory fragments overlap and splice in his mind, and then slowly form a relatively complete picture, in the picture, he looks like his current self, the raging fire behind him, the image of the looming building of the fire, all tell Dong Tiankuo that his dream is not fake, but real.
Dong Tiankuo stood there, and then the whole person seemed to be instantly drained of strength, slumped on the ground, his eyes gradually became blank and hollow, and he kept muttering to himself: "It's true······"
At that moment, Dong Tiankuo remembered everything, the fire, the massacre, and the great martial artist who suddenly appeared later, everyone's appearance was filtered in his mind like a painting.
"It really ruined ······" Dong Tiankuo was still repeating that sentence.
Xu Heng knew that Dong Tiankuo had all of them, so he slowly raised his head and looked at Dong Tiankuo.
"The Owner······ I'm sorry. ”
Dong Tiankuo didn't say anything, but stood up from the ground again, but unlike just now, Dong Tiankuo couldn't see a trace of emotion at this time, his expression was serious, his eyes were sharp, like a knife, extremely sharp.
Since Dong Tiankuo remembered everything, he naturally knew that Xu Heng had swallowed the "Huitian Pill" in order to save himself, but when he saw Xu Heng's current appearance, he knew that he should have swallowed more than one "Huitian Pill" in order to save himself.
Dong Tiankuo picked Xu Heng up, helped him to sit under a tree, and then asked sharply, "Have you taken more than one pill?" ”
Xu Heng grinned, and then said to Dong Tiankuo: "For the sake of the owner, I don't care. ”
Dong Tiankuo squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Heng, who was full of smiles, as if he was thinking about something.
"Owner, what are you going to do next?"
Dong Tiankuo didn't answer Xu Heng's question, but suddenly asked another question: "Can you do everything for me?" ”
Xu Heng did not doubt him, and immediately nodded and replied: "My life Xu Heng is yours, as long as the owner tells me, I am willing to do anything." ”
Dong Tiankuo picked the corners of his mouth with satisfaction, and then slowly said to Xu Heng: "Didn't you ask me what I plan to do next?" ”
He looked at Xu Heng's eyes, smiled meaningfully, and continued: "I want to go to Hezhou, I don't know what you think, Tang Heng?" ”
