Chapter 784: Persuasion
Qi Ning and the shadow mouse walked through the dim Xicheng Alley one after the other, turned several streets, and arrived at a dilapidated house, Qi Ning's pace slowed down, and the shadow mouse followed, but he held a hidden weapon in his hand, and Qi Ning was very wary of himself in his heart.
Qi Ning glanced at the shadow mouse, who was also looking at him, and saw that the house was dark, and there was a deathly silence in all directions, and he was suspicious, and asked: "Brother, he said that he knows the whereabouts of the red scorpion, is it difficult for him to be here?" ”
Qi Ning smiled, and went straight into the house, the shadow mouse was full of doubts, although he faintly felt that something was wrong, but since he had come, he naturally would not give up halfway, clasped the hidden weapon in his hand, and followed him very carefully into the house, but saw Qi Ning walking directly to the main hall, the shadow mouse hesitated, and followed into the main hall.
At this moment, his eyes lit up, and the room was lit up with fire, and the shadow mouse turned his head to look over, only to see a figure appear from the side, holding a fire fold in his hand, and the shadow mouse immediately took two steps back, but saw that the man was in tattered clothes, walked to the table in the main hall, and lit the oil lamp on the table with a fire fold.
Qi Ning turned around, looked at the shadow mouse with a smile, the shadow mouse knew that something was wrong, slowly retreated, took two or three steps back, turned around suddenly, stepped a little, flew up and was about to run out of the house, suddenly saw a large net in front of him, the shadow mouse was taken aback, his right hand flicked, the thin knife in his hand had been revealed, and he slashed at the net.
This knife went down, was slashing on the net, I thought that with the sharpness of the thin knife, it could easily split the big net, but I knew that the blade cut on the net, it turned out to be soft and unable to use the strength, before I had time to think about it, the figure on the side moved, and the net was already attached to the body of the shadow mouse.
The shadow mouse knew that this net was very strange, and hurriedly retreated, only two steps back, but he felt that there was a strong wind behind him, he reacted very quickly, and no matter what was behind him, his backhand was a knife, this knife went down, and he slashed in a soft place, and when he turned his head to look, he found that there was also a net cover from behind.
The shadow mouse is desperate in his heart, there is a net before and after, together, unless it can go to the sky and the earth, how can he escape, at this time he is helpless, but the two nets have been put together before and after, and the figure on the side flashed, just an instant, the shadow mouse was covered in the net, the shadow mouse struggled a few times, but the two nets moved more and more tightly, just an instant, the whole person of the shadow mouse has been strangled by the big net and cannot move.
The shadow mouse was extremely angry in his heart, although he was very wary of Qi Ning, he really couldn't imagine that Qi Ning would set a trap here.
The big net strangled him and he couldn't move, but at this time, Qi Ning had already walked over, squatted down beside him, and stared at him with interest.
"Despicable!" The shadow mouse said angrily, "Why do you want to harm me? ”
"Looks like you don't have a good memory." Qi Ning smiled and said: "The cake is only so big, the fewer people who divide it, the more you get, don't you understand this truth?" ”
The shadow mouse sneered: "It turns out that you don't know the red scorpion at all, you want to get rid of me?" Your martial arts are above me, and you can do it in the inn, why do you want to be here? ”
"There are many people in the temple lane, and I can't guarantee that there are no other shadow rats in the inn." Qi Ning said with a smile: "If it really happens to you there and alarms the other shadow rats, it will be really bad." ”
"That's not right." The shadow mouse's eyes were cold: "You are not a shadow mouse, you ..... Who the hell are you? ”
Qi Ning smiled and said, "How do you know I'm not a shadow mouse?" ”
The shadow mouse sneered: "Don't talk nonsense, I fell into your hands, I have nothing to say, do my business, I already know the impermanence of life and death, you do it." ”
"Sure enough, it's a man." Qi Ning smiled: "Since you know that you are going to die, it is good to leave a name before you die, and I will erect a monument for you when the time comes." ”
"Erect a monument?" The shadow mouse said coldly: "You don't have to be complacent, you killed me today, if other shadow rats know, you won't end well." ”
Qi Ning sighed and said, "You think too highly of yourself. The life and death of the shadow mouse, do you think anyone cares? You die here, like a leaf falling from a tree, and no one will care. With a flick of his hand, there was already an extra cold dagger, which was the cold blade he carried closely.
When the shadow mouse saw Qi Ning take out the knife, he knew that the time limit was approaching, and closed his eyes.
After waiting for a while, but never saw Qi Ning make a move, the shadow mouse opened his eyes, saw Qi Ning looking at him with a smile, gritted his teeth and said, "If you want to kill, what the hell are you going to do?" ”
Qi Ning sighed and said, "I'm just thinking, although you put life and death aside, it's a pity to die this time." ”
"It's a pity?"
"You came to the capital to make a big deal and earn some money." Qi Ning smiled: "But now that the silver has not been touched, this life is gone, isn't it a pity?" ”
The shadow mouse snorted coldly and did not speak.
"Actually, I'm not disgusted with you shadow rats." Qi Ning said: "You rely on your ability to eat, you don't rob your house and rob your house, bully the weak, and you can be regarded as keeping some bottom lines." After all, you are only doing this business to survive, and if you knew that this business is a dead end, you may not have chosen this path in the first place. ”
"Don't think I don't understand your mind." The shadow mouse sneered, "If you don't kill me, do you want to ask some secrets from my mouth?" ”
"So you're smart."
The shadow mouse said: "You pretended to be a shadow mouse and earned me into the hub, so naturally you found something." If you just want to kill me, you can do it at the inn, but you have brought me here to catch me and ask me for a secret. He tilted his neck slightly, and said, "I advise you not to bother, since I am doing this business, you must abide by the rules of this industry, even if you die, don't want to ask a word from my mouth." ”
Qi Ning gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Sure enough, there is a backbone." Got up, turned around and went to the lobby, the shadow mouse didn't know what Qi Ning was going to do with himself, but he felt that the big net suddenly moved, and several people dragged the big net and dragged the shadow mouse into the lobby, and then the door of the lobby was closed.
The lights were lit in the room, and the shadow mouse looked left and right, only to see four or five people standing around, all of them in tattered clothes, and his heart sank, and he lost his voice: "You guys..... Are you members of the beggars? ”
A person walked back next to him and sneered: "You are so bold, you dare to break into the territory of my beggar gang, intending to plot against you, how can my beggar gang allow you to do anything wrong here." "This person is in his forties, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he is tall, but he is Bai Shenghao, the helmsman of the beggar gang ghost golden sheep.
The shadow mouse naturally didn't know Bai Shenghao, but said coldly: "I have no grievances with the beggar gang, even if I get to your territory, I haven't broken the rules of your beggar gang, but you have set a trap to harm me here, who is right and wrong, you and I know in our hearts." But I was really surprised in my heart, secretly thinking that I had never had a grudge with the beggar gang, why did the beggar gang want to attack me tonight.
Qi Ning said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, your actions have been noticed by the Shenhou Mansion, and the Shenhou Mansion is secretly offering a reward, and whoever catches the shadow mouse will be rewarded." Since you hit the door, we won't miss it. ”
The shadow mouse was surprised: "The Shenhou Mansion already knows? This..... How is this possible? ”
"Do you think there is anything else in this river and lake that can be hidden from the eyes of the Shenhou Mansion?" Qi Ning said lightly: "Now as long as we send you to the Shenhou Mansion, we can get a large amount of silver." I know you have a hard mouth, but I don't know if you've heard of the Nine Heavens of the Shenhou Mansion? ”
The Nine Heavens is the punishment of the Shenhou Mansion, but all the prisoners who pass through the Nine Heavens, even if they are iron teeth and steel teeth, must be pried into the mouth to confess, although the Shenhou Mansion is very secretive, and there are not many people who know the punishment of the Nine Heavens, but it is indeed spread in the rivers and lakes.
The shadow mouse's face changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth.
"You say I'm not a shadow mouse, that's a big mistake." Qi Ning sighed: "Actually, I was also a shadow mouse before, but that kind of life without people and ghosts is really unbearable, so I abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and I have a good future." ”
"A great future?" The shadow mouse frowned, "What do you mean by that?" ”
"After all, we people have become shadow rats because we want to survive." Qi Ning said: "If you don't have the strength to start a sect, but you don't want to harm the people, you can only do some murderous business, but how long will this road take?" Do you have to do it for the rest of your life? ”
A dark look crossed the shadow mouse's eyes.
"No one knows when they are alive, and no one sheds a tear when they die." Qi Ning sighed: "Living in this world, who doesn't want to do a career, glorify the ancestors, and let the world know my name." Staring into the shadow mouse's eyes, he asked, "Could it be that you never had such a heart?" ”
The shadow mouse snorted coldly again, and did not answer.
Qi Ning walked in front of the shadow mouse and squatted down, stared at the shadow mouse and said: "Fortunately, I met a nobleman, not only from now on without worrying about food and clothing, but also have the opportunity to do a career, maybe I can also get an official and a half-job to honor the ancestors, there is such an opportunity, I naturally can't miss it." ”
"I understand what you mean." The shadow mouse said: "After all, you want to use glory and wealth to lure me into revealing my secrets? This kind of little trick, don't use it on me. ”
"I know you're not afraid of death." Qi Ning smiled: "If you are really cowardly, I won't give you this opportunity if you want it." I'm just curious, are you really going to die like this? What's the value? ”
"I .....!" The shadow mouse was speechless for a moment.
"Not everyone will have such an opportunity." Qi Ning stared at the shadow mouse's eyes: "From now on, you will change your face, not only will you have enough money to spend, but you will also have the opportunity to do something career, if you miss it, I guarantee that you will never encounter the same opportunity again." He sighed and said: "Of course, you can also choose to go to the Shenhou Mansion, in the Shenhou Mansion you can still be hard-boiled, maybe your action this time is successful because of your generosity, but no one will know your contributions, your corpse will only be thrown into the mass grave and torn to pieces by jackals and wild dogs." ”
Bai Shenghao sighed beside him: "In fact, there are many people who are not afraid of death, but they die in a daze like this, but I am afraid that no one wants to." ”
