Chapter 12: Survive
In the middle of the night, the street is unusually empty, and occasionally there are a few wild dog roars, which is considered to let people know that this place is still the world, on the wide street, a child walks slowly with a blood-dripping cloth bag in his left hand, the young man's arm is injured, because he can't use his strength, and he shakes the branches that are blown by the wind, which is very weird.

The boy kept muttering something, and when he got closer, he could hear who he was whispering and scolding
"Dog's day, if Lao Tzu can live, you have to dig up your ancestral grave and let the master suffer such a big crime. Wang Zhong of the dog day, you are happy in the gentle township, leaving the master to suffer here, don't think about taking a penny of this year's Yulu, the errand is done like this, and you want to marry a daughter-in-law. ”
Walking north along Suzaku Street, Li Chengqian muttered quietly, the spacious street on weekdays is now more and more quiet, and the darkness has to be shrouded, just like a big mouth that eats people, the dagger in his hand does not know when it has fallen to the ground, dragged by the silk thread, every time he takes a step forward, the dagger also jumps forward, hitting the bluestone road, and makes a tinkling sound from time to time
The package in his hand is still oozing blood, and it falls to the ground with a click, although the current means of chasing the murderer are not as good as those of later generations, but this is also the only clue, so even if he is tired to death now, his right hand is still holding the cloth wrapped in the head, and he has never been half lax, this is the only clue to his revenge, Li Chengqian is a person who holds a grudge, and the bastard in his hand has made himself suffer such a big grievance, if he does not retaliate, then he will have a ghost, assassinating the king of the county, it is much greater than the sin of killing the official.
"Ah~ Are Jin Wuwei's gang dead today? Haven't been able to see for so long? ”
Li Chengqian wailed in pain, his feet seemed to be filled with lead, his muscles hurt badly, and now he could only move step by step, if the light was brighter, he could still see the dark red blood that had scabbed over his face.
Speaking is not to strengthen courage, but to keep a clear head, if you faint on this street, Li Chengqian dare not think about the consequences.
"Ahem~! Poof~Whew~" The chest was so stuffy that I coughed hard, and a small mouthful of blood spurted out.
"Damn, it's much more relaxed~Whew~" After a moan, Li Chengqian felt that he had regained some strength in his body, if he let his wife see this appearance, I am afraid that he will be distressed to death.
Thinking so crankily in his head, he suddenly heard a burst of horses' hooves coming from in front of him, saw the constantly shaking firelight, stopped, and grinned in front of him: "Finally alive~"
After saying a word, Li Chengqian's eyes were dark, and the person fell to the ground upright, and the joy of returning to the world made Li Chengqian consume his last bit of physical strength, in order to survive, each of us paid too much.
The cavalry gradually approached, and a black-faced man with a bearded beard looked at the figure and walked forward, it turned out that this was not Jin Wuwei patrolling the streets, but a soldier from Tiance Mansion, who came out to find Li Chengqian
"General Cheng, I found it, it's His Royal Highness the King of Zhongshan." After the soldier finished speaking, he probed Li Chengqian's snort and added: "I'm still alive~"
The black-faced man hurriedly dismounted, looking at Li Chengqian, who had been held in his arms by the soldiers, under the reflection of the torches, his pale little face, chapped lips, and the blood stains flowing from the corners of his mouth, Cheng Yanjin didn't understand where this kid was injured.
"Hurry up and go to Tiance Mansion and tell King Qin that His Royal Highness has been found." Looking back at the sergeant who was shaking while holding Li Chengqian, the bearded man flew up and kicked it: "Rammed goods, I didn't see anyone injured, what are you shaking!" Find the secondary door panel and carry the person back. ”
Even if he fainted, Li Chengqian was holding the black package tightly in his hand, Cheng Yanjin wanted to grab it suspiciously, but as soon as his hand shook, a human head fell out, and the human head hit the ground with a snapping sound, and Rao is surrounded by fighting men also took a cold breath.
"What a ruthless boy."
Looking at the skin on his neck that was still looking out, the bearded man gasped, this was cut from the head of a living person, if it was a dead person, the incision would be flat instead of turning outward like now, and the head was missing an eye, obviously just dug out.
The bearded man looked at Li Chengqian wearing a ring on his hand, and looked carefully at the light of the torch to see that there was a thin thread of spider silk tied to the ring, and stretched out his hand to see what it was, but it hurt just now, and a small wound immediately appeared on his finger.
Untied the ring from Li Chengqian's hand and pulled it hard, only to know that there was a dagger tied behind the thin line, and the handle was also inlaid with red gems, the cold light at the blade of the dagger flickered, and with a gentle touch of his finger, he felt the feeling of the blade scratching his fingerprints, and Cheng Biting Jin's eyes brightened up, "The sharp dagger, hehe, I Lao Cheng took it." At first glance, it was not a mortal thing, and he put away the dagger, and was just about to put it in his arms, when a weak child's voice came.
"Uncle Cheng, give me back the things."
The bearded man is Cheng Biting Jin, that is, it is still dark, if it is daytime, you will be able to see how embarrassed Cheng Biting Jin's face is at this time, and when will the little rabbit cub's problem of protecting food be changed.
"Uncle will take it for you first, and I'll pay you back when I return to Tiance Mansion."
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes, and when he returned to Tiance Mansion to get something, he would have a ghost if he could come back, and now he is a soldier who is similar to the future generations, and he is forgetful, and he doesn't know where to throw good things in his hands, if you ask others, it will be a sentence: "Oh, look at my memory, I will return you when I find it." "It's all brothers in life and death, what can you say?
"I also told Cheng Chumo about this, and his horizontal knife is still hanging in my room."
Okay, the two of them are half a pound and eight taels, generally shameless, no one says anyone, Cheng Yanjin was distressed and stuffed the dagger into Li Chengyan's arms, as if this was his own thing. see
"Where's the injury? How did you get so badly injured. ”
While speaking, the two soldiers walked over with a pair of door panels, and gently put Li Chengqian on the door panel, Li Cheng pointed to the head of Cheng Yanjin who was missing an eye in his hand and said: "Hehe, he kicked his arm and broke it, and his skin was injured."
Although Cheng Yanjin was a little confused, he also knew that the severed hands and feet were not skin injuries, so he pursed his lips and said to Li Chengqian: "Lie down, go back and let the medical officer take a good look, but don't be sick." ”
Ignoring Cheng Biting Jin, Li Chengqian let out a heavy breath, opened his eyes and looked at the starlight above his head.
"It's good to be alive."
***************
Li Er looked at Li Chengqian's face on the bed, the eldest grandson sat in front of the window and looked at Li Chengqian's face full of blood and tears, dipped some water with a handkerchief, and gently wiped the blood stains on Li Chengqian's face, the blood stains were dry and scabbed on the face, and the eldest grandson felt sorry for his son and didn't dare to use force, so he could only wipe it little by little.
"Mother, didn't the medical officer say it just now, it's all skin trauma, just take care of it for a few days."
Seeing Li Chengqian comforting himself, the eldest grandson glanced at him with disgust, sobbed and said, "Who did you provoke, why did you act so ruthlessly, you have to kill someone." ”
"Your Highness, the body has been brought back."
Li Er glanced at Li Chengqian, didn't speak, gritted his teeth and walked out, the head and the corpse had been placed together, Li Er took a closer look at the torch, the corpse had a total of six wounds, one of the calves, which was cut along the calf, should have been drawn when kicking Li Chengqian, one was under the ribs, one finger deep was pierced by Li Chengqian's dagger, and the left shoulder was one, and he looked at the short knife on the side.
Li Er thought about it carefully, looked at the eyelids, and found that there was still some sand in the eyes, all of which were licked from the knife edge, and he could probably guess the process of the fight by looking at the wound, if Li Chengqian's knife on the leg came out slowly, I am afraid that it is his son who is lying here, but he is also very puzzled, even if he is an ordinary master, he may not have such a quick reaction, everything seems to be a coincidence, but the whole thing is like a perfect plan.
"It is estimated that this rammed goods are lightly attacked, the injuries on the legs and ribs were made during the fight, there is more blood and less on the arms, obviously this person was cut after he couldn't move, and Cheng Qian forced a confession. I guess the man raised his head back without saying anything. ”
Cheng Yanjin is not a vegetarian, he talks about things and talks about everything, Li Er closed his eyes gently, thinking back to Li Chengqian's performance just now, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, this kid is probably not the first time to kill someone. If it was the first time, how could it be so calm.
"Check! Whoever he is, I have to pay for him. ”
Li Ertie said with a blushing face, Cheng Yanjin had never seen Li Erfa so angry, and bowed out of the prince's mansion.
Li Er entered the room, his face improved slightly, looking at Li Chengqian, who was teasing his eldest grandson on the bed, showing a trace of love, the blood stains on Li Chengqian's face had been cleaned up, and his face was a little paler at this time, and there was nothing wrong with him.
"Guanyin, you go back and rest first, I have something to say to Cheng Qian."
The eldest grandson wiped the tears in his eyes, touched Li Chengqian's little face before leaving, and said to Li Er with pity: "Don't say it's too late, let the child sleep a little longer." ”
Li Er nodded, watched the eldest grandson close the door, and sat on the edge of Li Chengqian's bed and suddenly smiled, smiling very proudly.
"I didn't see it before, our family Dalang is so ruthless, tsk, knife into the flesh, tell my father, this is not the first time to kill someone."
Li Chengqian pursed his lips, disdainful of this kind of coaxing child's tone, killing people was often done in his previous life, but it was really the first time in this life, so he didn't hide it at all, and looked at Li Er with a firm look in his eyes and said, "What did Daddy say?" ”
Li Er grinned, but the doubts in his heart still did not let go, thinking of Li Chengqian's master, there is no need to ask more about this kind of thing, and gently patted Li Chengqian's forehead: "Since you don't want to say it, then Dad won't ask, rest well, I've already asked people to check that person, don't worry." ”
Li Chengqian smiled slightly, it was agreed, Li Er blew out the light and turned around to go out, Li Chengqian's eyes lying on the bed gradually became cold: "There are only a few people who want my life, since you want to play, then let's play slowly, I want to see if my means are high, or your path." ”
