Chapter 228: Chinese New Year's Eve (10)
In a quaint Chinese-style building, a man drank the dragon well impatiently, looked at the four guards downstairs, and kept thinking about how to escape from here.
In Hangzhou, where autumn went to winter, Guan Yang struggled distraught, no matter how he tried, he never escaped the confinement of Shanxiangai. The ancient pillars of the small building exude a faint fragrance, and I heard that this is a monument with a history of hundreds of years. The wooden pavilion full of years and the tall locust trees in the small courtyard made Guan Yang feel like a canary in captivity. But when I look in the mirror, I don't look like I'm pleasing to the eye.
There was a footstep at the bottom of the stairs, sounding like the sound of high heels. Guan Yang asked weakly while lying on the hard bed with his eyes closed.
"It's only been a few months, and you're so decadent?"
"Shan Xiang Ai?!" Guan Yang suddenly bounced up, and his eyes stared directly at Shan Xiang Ai who slowly walked up. "What are you doing here?"
"This is my property, do I need your consent to come over?" Shan Xiangai smiled and picked up a teacup from the table and poured himself a cup of tea, "Are you still used to living?" I heard that you are from the north, and the winter in the south is not easy, right?"
"If you're really kind, let me go, or don't ask this or that. Guan Yang said unceremoniously.
"The resentment is not small. ”
"I've been trapped for so long, why do you have time to visit me today? Could it be that my conscience has found out and is going to let me go?"
"You're not smart, but you guessed right this time, congratulations. ”
"What?" Guan Yang couldn't believe what he heard, "You're going to let me go?"
"That's right. Shan Xiangai pushed open the wooden window and felt the cool air outside, "I am going to cooperate with your sworn brother Ye Qingmian, so a healthy and alive you is the best gift on behalf of my goodwill and sincerity." ”
"What are you going to do with my second brother?" asked Guan Yang.
"Of course, let's get rid of our common enemy together. Yamaka Ai pretended to be different and said, "You don't know that the Overseer Nozomi has been thinking about killing your brother, right?"
"You want to deal with Xi together?" Guan Yang looked at Shan Xiangai suspiciously, his eyes revealing distrust.
"There are no eternal enemies in this world, and the contradictions between me and Ye Qingmian are not irreconcilable, so temporary cooperation won't be so unacceptable, right?" said Yamaka Ai as a matter of course.
"But everyone thinks I'm dead, if you don't hand me over, the second brother will definitely not agree to cooperate with you, that's why you let me go, right?" Guan Yang thought for a while and said directly.
"Of course, I'm not bad to you, am I? Although you can't leave here, and you can't communicate with the outside world, someone will send you whatever you want, and it's quite comfortable, isn't it?"
"Fart, even if you give me a palace, it won't change the fact that you are under house arrest. Guan Yang said indignantly.
"Oh?" said Yamaka with a ghostly smile, "including the different beauties that are sent to you on a regular basis?"
Hearing Shan Xiangai talk about this, Guan Yang's face turned red, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.
"Don't worry, I won't go around telling people about this kind of thing. Shan Xiang looked at Guan Yang playfully, and said with a smile in her eyes, "Let you go back this time, I hope you can help Ye Qingmian well and cooperate with me once." ”
"Hehe, you're thinking too much about this. Guan Yang sneered, "My second brother is the most suspicious, do you think I can be accepted by everyone immediately after I go back?"
Although he didn't want this to happen, Guan Yang understood that even if he changed himself and a brother who had been under house arrest by the enemy for several months returned, even if he didn't want to think about the worst, he would actually have some doubts. The restoration of trust takes time and does not happen overnight.
"Oh, that Ye Qingmian is in danger. Yamaka Ai pretended to be mysterious, and then stopped talking.
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing. Shan Xiangai deliberately diverted the topic, "Ye Qingmian and I plan to cooperate on the Chinese New Year's Eve plan, and you can generally understand that we will completely solve the trouble of the Overseer Xi at the end of the primary election." ”
"Don't change the subject, what do you mean when you say that Ye Qingmian will be in danger?"
"Forget it, you won't believe me even if I say it. ”
Guan Yang gritted her teeth, although she knew that Shan Xiangai deliberately provoked herself to ask, she still couldn't help but go into her expected plot, "You make it clear, as for believing it or not, that's my business." ”
"Hey. Shan Xiangai sighed helplessly, "Since you must listen, then I will say it, but like you said, believe it or not, whether you want to confirm it afterwards is also your business, so don't wait for me to finish speaking and rush to refute me." ”
"You talk about things first. ”
"You should know that Guan Sang was once captured alive by the Fallen Leaf Veil, right?" asked Yama Xiang Ai.
"Yes. ”
"Well, later Guan Sang was let go by the inner ghost of the Veil of Fallen Leaves. But do you think the Overseer would let such an important person escape so easily?" said Yamaka Ai meaningfully.
"What do you mean?"
"Death is the end of all things, and the reason why many people dare to apply it to death is nothing more than not experiencing the horror of death and the terrifying process that makes people despair. Shan Xiangai said slowly with a solemn face, "On the day Guan Sang was captured alive, he was tortured to death three times by the Overseer Xi, which means that the badges he needs to be resurrected again are as high as 10,000. In other words, Guan Sang has no possibility of resurrection in the real world. ”
"What?!" Guan Yang clenched his fists, his eyes red and bared his teeth, "Xi, this stinky." ”
"I'm not done yet. Shan Xiang Ai smiled casually and continued, "According to my observation, Guan Sang may have taken revenge on Xi for fear of death, otherwise... He couldn't get out of the Veil of Fallen Leaves alive. Don't think that cats and dogs can let people go under Nozomi's nose. ”
"How can my third brother do something unfavorable to us?!" Guan Yang immediately retorted.
"You see, I said you wouldn't believe it, but you insisted on telling me. Yama Xiang Ai had an expression that I knew this would be, "This is just my speculation, and there is no basis, but I think this is the most consistent hypothesis, you can choose not to believe it, but you can't think that I am deliberately lying to you!"
"Needless to say, the third brother is definitely not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Guan Sang said decisively.
"Then are you greedy for life and afraid of death?" Yamaka smiled weirdly.
"Of course I am not!"
"That's it..."Shan Xiangai got up slowly, but in Guan Yang's opinion, it was as fast as a bolt of lightning, and he only felt that his neck was clamped by a pair of jade hands, and his not sharp nails seemed to be able to pierce the skin and cut his throat at any time.
As the three Bibles around Shan Xiangai unfolded at the same time, an indescribable invisible pressure instantly swept like a tsunami and wrapped Guan Yang tightly.
Compared to the physical pain, this mental coercion is the real fatal blow of despair. Guan Yang only felt that the ethereal death was like an entity at the moment, only a stone's throw away from him, and in just a second, he would fall into eternal darkness, lose everything, and have no life.
At this moment, Guan Yang didn't think about why Shan Xiangai wanted to kill him, the only light that could support him from falling immediately was the resurrection chance of the reincarnation badge. Guan Yang had never died, and he had enough badges on his body to resurrect, which was the last straw that he held tightly with all his thoughts.
The tsunami-like biblical energy swept over him, and Guan Yang felt so small for the first time, not even compared to the presence of a drop in the ocean. He knew that he might not be able to escape, at this moment, the beauty of life involuntarily emerged, the scenes in the orphanage when he was a child began to emerge, the violence of ignition, Ye Qingmian's deceit, Guan Sang's laziness, Guan Yu's slippery, and the picture of several people being naughty and mischievous together flashed like a marquee.
Later, after the orphanage was closed, he left the motherland with his eldest sister and relied on each other overseas, relying on Ye Qingmian's initial funding, and gradually developed his own power.
Hurry up, hurry up, Guan Yang subconsciously kept urging himself to hurry up and recall the good things again, because he firmly knew that death was imminent.
But suddenly, all the pressure dissipated in an instant, and the suffocating hand on the neck was released.
"How does it feel to die?" Shan Xiangai ignored Guan Yang, who was prostrate on the ground panting, and said to herself, "Your sworn brother Guan Yang has experienced it three times. Do you still think that he, who has no way out to be resurrected, can wholeheartedly strengthen his faith and die for Ye Qingmian? Do you still think that Guan Yang has even the slightest possibility of defecting to Overseer Xi?"
Guan Yang raised his head sweatingly, looked at Shan Xiangai who was looking out the window, and was silent.
"I don't want to stir up feelings between your brothers, but Ye Qingmian's plan and I are to kill Nozomi, so I don't want a Nozomi's pawn to go so deep into our ranks. Shan Xiangai turned around and walked to Guan Yang's side to help him up, "You can choose to believe Guan Yang, but if my guess is true, then my plan is to completely leak, and you will kill me and kill Ye Qingmian." Kill your eldest sister, and your other brother lurking in the veil of leaves. ”
"You... Why don't you tell the second brother yourself. Guan Yang was shaken, he was not sure if he would give up the friendship between brothers if he didn't have enough badges to resurrect. Maybe at that time, I will grit my teeth and choose to sacrifice, but it is not impossible to choose betrayal with guilt because of the fear of death. Maybe the former is more likely to be bigger, but he doesn't dare to bet.
"I am known as the god of lies and betrayal, do you think my words will be convincing? I don't want to ruin this cooperation, so I would love to say it, but can I say it. Shan Xiangai looked at Guan Yang helplessly, "So this is the biggest reason why I am willing to let you go, for the sake of me and Ye Qingmian's plan, for the safety of all of us, I want you to monitor Guan Yang and find a way to exclude him from this plan." Even..."
"Or even what?"
"Even if you find out he's secretly in contact with Nozomi, before he tells his plan... Kill him. ”
The city of the future.
"Guan Yang, why are you in a daze?" Guan Sang threw a melon seed into Guan Yang's face, interrupting the latter's contemplation.
"No, it's a bit boring, I don't know what to do. Guan Yang looked at Guan Sang in a wheelchair, he couldn't be resurrected, is this the real reason why he has been refusing to recover?
"Play a game of chess?" Guan Sang found a pair of Go out of nowhere.
"Come on, I'll kill you. ”
