Chapter 146: The Moment of Death
Jiangning fell into a deep night, except for the Qinhuai River, which was still brightly lit, there were only a few occasional whimpering dog barks left in the rest of the place, and the wind seemed to suddenly become urgent, and it became more and more cold when it blew on the body.
The golden wood fish group sat on the futon in front of the Buddha statue, with his eyes closed, his fat face was calm and compassionate, and he was holding a rosary in his hand unhurriedly, as if he had not heard of the outside world.
The Jin family's mansion had already been in chaos in a quarter of an hour, and with a roar of fire, the entire Jin family was in a hurry, and Jin Muyu stayed in the Buddhist hall early in the morning, and no one came to disturb him for a while. He was a devout believer.
A gust of wind swept in, lifting the yellow canvas in the room, and the golden wooden fish's hand paused slightly, as if it knew that someone was coming.
He didn't speak, and neither did anyone who came.
After another cup of tea, the hustle and bustle outside became more obvious, and it seemed that the fire had burned to his side, so he said slowly: "Tonight's fire is a little big!"
"I don't know how many fires like this will burn out tonight, and how many people will completely disappear in this fire."
The person who came paused, and said that he was laughing, but his bones couldn't help but tremble.
"You can leave before you do, you don't have to wait here to die!" This is an exhortation, and there is even a bit of inexplicable indignation.
"I know that you are here, and where can you go, besides, it doesn't matter if I die, if you let me go, then they will give up on you completely!"
Jin Muyu glanced back at him with a sincere expression.
The corner of the person's lips hooked and he smiled: "I will do it for you if you don't finish your business...... I will also accept your head! ”
Jin Muyu's eyes narrowed, then he glanced outside the house, and said tiredly: "Tiger Head Gang...... It's the end of the road! ”
seems to verify his words, at this time, a large number of officers and soldiers surrounded the Wangjiang Tower where the Tiger Head Gang was located, and the armor was bright, as if there was a tense situation. As for the halls scattered everywhere, at this time, all the small gangs in Jiangning sent a large number of people under the "call" of the imperial court, and just waited for the order of the little colonel headed by them, it was bound to be a force of thousands of troops and horses, crushing the past.
Fang Heng was woken up from his dream, comforted his wife, he got up and went out with his clothes, and after a while, he went back to the room.
His wife was woken up by him and didn't fall asleep again, he went to the bedside, was stunned for a moment, and still smiled: "Don't worry, it's nothing, I'll be back in a while."
The wife nodded: "Be careful."
Fang Heng nodded.
......Just as he turned to leave, his wife stopped him again, and he turned around, and the woman's weak and somewhat cold hand put on his neck and came up.
The air suddenly froze, and a warmth gradually spread, and she leaned into his ear and whispered, "I'm sorry......"
Almost as soon as the woman said these three words, his heart finally struggled with the result.
So when the woman finished saying these three words, the whole person collapsed on him, he hugged him a little, sniffed the last breath that remained in the room, and sobbed quietly.
**********
The shouts of killing came and went, spreading, and the whimpering dogs ceased, and the flames soared into the sky, but they could not warm this city that had been ruthlessly ravaged one after another. The people nested at home, covered their heads with quilts, and angrily scolded the world of receiving a thousand knives. The women softly comforted their children's colleagues, praying to heaven with devotion in their hearts.
But what's the use!
The blow against the Tiger Head Gang reached a high level in an instant. The tide itself was a premeditated thing, coupled with the uneven morale of the Tiger Head Gang itself and the defection of some middle and upper classes, it was true that it ended this purge with a lightning speed. At the same time, all the people in the city who might be involved in Maitreya were arrested and imprisoned, and this time the incident was always aimed at attacking Maitreya, which was a blow to the imperial court against the previous Jiangpu rebellion.
After a night of noise, when the sky was bright, someone gradually opened the door and went to the street, in fact, there was no change, but everyone knew that in just one night, the dragon head in the darkness of Jiangning had been broken, and the people may have applauded, but for more people, they have long been numb. Without the Tiger Head Gang, there will still be the Dog Head Gang, and the rise of the Wolf Head Gang has not changed substantially for them.
At the same time, the interrogation in Jiangning's prison was also in full swing.
Fang Heng looked at the Jin family's mansion in front of him, which was already charred and black, his mood was complicated and indescribable, the child in his arms was struggling to escape from him, and his eyes were full of distrust of him.
There was a grief in his eyes.
His wife died, in his arms......
The seductive voice came from behind him again, and he turned to see the delicate woman who made his heart palpitate.
The women were dressed in a white group, wafting out of the dust, as if they did not eat the fireworks of the world.
The woman's gaze lingered briefly on him, landing on the child behind him.
"I never thought you would break up." The woman opened her mouth lightly, as if she was sincerely praising it.
Fang Heng didn't have any joy and returned: "But I don't want to kill her."
"You should know that if you don't kill her, you'll be the one who dies!"
Fang Heng didn't want to assume whether this possibility existed, or that it was useless to think about it at this time, so the saddest memory in his heart should not be touched again, so he didn't say anything about it.
He said something else: "How is he now?"
He is naturally the golden wood fish mentioned here.
Fang Heng knew the level of the killer sent by the other party this time, and now he asked this question probably because he had a kind of hope. Boss Jin is also an unfathomable figure in his cognition.
The woman said lightly: "It's dead."
She said such a sentence in such a joking, it seemed that she was not sure, but Fang Heng knew that the other party just disdained to know the life and death of a small person.
Yes, the big man who is ranked on the **** in Jiangning is just a small person in the eyes of the other party, just like a little ant on the ground, anyone can pinch it to death.
Fang Heng felt sarcastic, smiled sadly, and looked at the woman fixedly: "Maybe one day in the future, I will just end up like this!"
The woman was stunned for a moment: "The scenery in front of people, the people behind them naturally have to pay, and those who embark on this road can't do anything except keep moving forward!" If you don't want to die, then you can only let others die, and have mercy, but no one will sympathize with you! ”
Fang Heng was silent and turned around.
