120 Du has no life
After Ye Haotian caused a sensation in the whole city of Quicksand City because of his study of the thunder control technique, the prison in the City Lord's Mansion that was dedicated to holding cultivators had been repaired, and Du Wuming was put in a cell that held ordinary prisoners.
It was darker than the prison area for cultivators, and the number of cells was nearly twice as large, after all, there were far more inmates in the city who could not practice than there were cultivators.
Ye Haotian walked through the triple cell door under the guidance of the cell boss to a cell in the corner, and saw Du Wusheng lying on the bed through the rusty iron fence. In order to snatch the "Luohe Books", Chen Cripple almost used all his strength in that collision, and the broken ribs almost pierced his lung lobes, if it weren't for good luck, coupled with the cultivation of the Qi Transformation Realm, Du Wusheng was afraid that he would not have survived a long time ago.
Hearing the sound of footsteps coming from the door, Du Wuming slowly raised his head, touching the sharp pain in his heart, which made him snort and cough violently.
Ye Haotian stood in front of the prison door, looking at him quietly, until the coughing completely stopped, then he opened his mouth and said, "Why?"
Du Wuming wiped the blood coughed up from the corner of his mouth, lifted his eyelids a little tiredly, and left a trace of blood on the newly emerging stubble on his chin.
"Twenty years ago, my mother was raped by a business friend of my father and became pregnant. Du Wuming said slowly.
"According to the rules of the Du family, she should be kicked out of the family and thrown into the desert to feed the wolves. Fortunately, my father was the head of the Du family at the time, and he kept my mother and me at the cost of giving up the position of patriarch. ”
Supporting the newly changed mat on the bed, Du Wuming slowly sat up, and continued: "Later, when my mother gave birth to me, she died of dystocia. When I was six years old, my father was sent by the new patriarch to do a business and never returned. Half a month after my father's disappearance, I was kicked out of the family and ended up on the streets, an orphan who could be humiliated and bullied by anyone. It was at that time that I met the beast that raped my mother, and I learned from him that my father's death was actually a conspiracy of the clan, and he turned out to be a demon!"
Speaking of this, Du Wuming's eyes swelled with deep pain and hatred, he stared at Ye Haotian's face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Can you understand how I felt at that time? Can you understand how painful and desperate I felt when I knew the news? I am a hybrid of humans and demons! I am a mongrel!"
Ye Haotian stood motionless in front of the cell expressionlessly, and the whole person looked like a statue.
He already knew what Du Wuming said, otherwise he wouldn't have found him.
When he saw Du Wuming for the first time in the tavern half a year ago, Ye Haotian felt the demon aura in his body, so he spent money to collect some information, and finally won his trust.
The mood swings made Du Wuming cough violently.
"You can't experience it, and you will never be able to experience it. After taking a few breaths, Du Wuming continued: "I hate, hate the beast that raped my mother! I hate all the clansmen of the Du family! I swore to the gods of the starry sky more than once that I must avenge my father, I must return to the family, and trample all the people who have bullied me under my feet! But ...... I was only six years old, so what could I do?"
"In order to survive, I went to the morning market to pick up green leaves, went to the tavern to steal leftovers, like a wild dog on the street to everyone who can give me bones and begged for mercy, such days have been more than ten years, until one day, I met Zhao Laoxi, and fate finally took a turn!"
Du Wuming's dim and painful eyes gradually lit up.
"I used his power to destroy the Du family, personally killed all the clansmen who killed my father, and became Zhao Laoxi's cronies, learned to practice, and since then no one dares to underestimate me, I have endured more than ten years of hardship, and finally survived!"
"But you betrayed him anyway. Ye Haotian interjected.
"Because I'm unwilling!" Du Wuming's expression suddenly became distorted, and his voice was full of hatred.
He promised to return the Du family to me after taking control of the north of the city, and then he even excused himself with all kinds of excuses, and I learned to figure out people's hearts during the years I was a dog in the city, how could I not see his little thoughts? Just as I was about to deal with him, you came into my sight. ”
Ye Haotian sighed and said slowly: "At that time, I already had a little fame in the south of the city, and I had a good relationship with Xu Heihu, and I was also familiar with Su Second Sister Liu Datou, and I was young and easy to deceive, so I became your next target, right?"
"Not bad!"
Du Wuming raised his eyebrows a little proudly.
Ye Haotian looked at Du Wuming's long yellow face and said, "I promised you that as long as you get rid of Zhao Laoxie, you will hand over the Zhao Mansion to you, but why do you still betray me?"
"Betrayal?" Du Wuming suddenly laughed, and only half of his laughter was interrupted by a pain in his heart, turning into a hoarse and dull coughing sound.
"If I betray you, can you still stand here and talk to me?"
Hearing this, Ye Haotian was silent for a moment, but still nodded.
"You're right, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been ambushed by Zhao Laoxi, but after all, you hid the chariot and those thirty guards from me, you should admit this, right?"
Du Wuming stared at Ye Haotian's eyes for a while: "I don't deny it." ”
"Why?"
"Because of the "Luohe Books"!" Du Wuming said word by word: "That is the treasure of Tianjimen, it is something that the kings of all ethnic groups in the mainland dream of, with it, let alone a small quicksand city, even if I want to change the territory of a prince, it is not difficult to change it, just a Zhao Mansion wants to change it, don't you think it's too cheap?"
"So, you want to take advantage of the fact that Zhao Laoxie and I are both defeated?"
"From the first time I saw you, I knew it wasn't easy to lie to you. Du Wuming did not deny it, he stood up, walked to Ye Haotian, held the iron bar on the cell door with both hands, and said: "Although I am greedy for "Luohe Books", I don't want to harm you, since you can stand here, it means that Zhao Laoxie is dead, and "Luohe Books" has not been lost." I have told you the truth without concealment, just to show you loyalty, from now on, I will follow you with all my heart, boss, do you still believe me?"
Ye Haotian looked at Du Wuming's almost pleading eyes, was silent for a long time, and finally nodded.
"Boss ......" Du Wuming was moved to tears, bent his knees, and knelt on the ground.
"Your background is really pathetic. Ye Haotian sighed: "It is reasonable to be greedy for "Luohe Books", in the past few days, you have also helped me a lot, and I have no doubt about your loyalty." ”
"Boss, I knew you would be considerate of me. Du Wuming began to cough again due to excitement.
"But......" Ye Haotian suddenly stopped.
"Ahem, but what?" Du Wuming raised his head and asked with his breath.
"It's too late. ”
After saying this, Ye Haotian turned around and walked towards the outside of the prison, his voice drifting into Du Wusheng's ears along with the sound of heavy footsteps.
"Because of your concealment, at least seventy old men in the city have lost their sons, seventy women have lost their men, and seventy children have lost their fathers...... When you kneel, you should make amends for the sins of those dead brothers. ”
