Chapter 25: I Want to Live
In the liquor shop, the steam on the hot pot is permeated, and the cold wind blows, and the steam is like a thin layer of ice. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Xuanyuan Chen slashed through the air, quickly turned around, his sharp eyes seemed to draw a ray of lightning, and when he looked at the person behind him, the blade also pointed directly at the other party.
The man behind him is the old man in the liquor store!
The pots and pans in the old man's hand were gone, replaced by a copper shovel.
The copper mace is black, and the edge of the four-diamond-shaped mace is sharp along the edge, but the luster with a cold aura is enough to make people palpitate.
Xuanyuan Chen's expression was flat, and he looked at the old man quietly. The old man looked at the copper mace in his hand with a thoughtful look on his face.
After a long time, the old man asked, "Where is the flaw?"
Xuanyuan Chen said in a deep voice: "You are very similar in disguise, but there is one thing missing."
The old man frowned, was silent for a moment, and then asked, "What's missing?"
Xuanyuan Chen stared at the old man, his eyes were a little more aggressive, and said, "Wine!"
Although the liquor shop has become a dim sum shop at this time, but the wine has just been sold last night, how can the old man not have a trace of alcohol on his body, and there is only one explanation for this, the old man is not the old man last night, although the clothes and appearances of the two are the same.
The old man's face showed a look of sudden realization, and a sound of surprise came out of his mouth: "So that's the case, in order to lower your vigilance after I lost it, it seems that it is all in vain to remind someone to assassinate you."
Xuanyuan Chen took a step forward, his movements were not slow, but the blade that pointed at the old man obviously had a stronger killing intent, and asked coldly, "Who sent you?"
A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth, his face was thin and gray, except for a pair of translucent eyes, the whole person seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, which made people feel hazy.
After a while, the old man said, "It doesn't matter who sent me, the important thing is that you will soon become a dead man, and a dead man does not need to know too much." He said it lightly, but his tone was unmistakable.
Xuanyuan Chen was not half frightened, and said calmly: "You came here, of course, to kill me." Maybe you can't kill me, it's not up to you to decide. ”
The old man lifted the brass shovel in his hand and chuckled, "You really think you are better than me."
Xuanyuan Chen took a breath and said lightly: "Only if you have fought can you know." He said it with a hard heart, but he knew in his heart that the old man's martial arts were strong, and he was never below him.
Just now, Xuanyuan Chen stabbed backhanded, which can be said to be calculated or unintentional, but he still let the old man calmly dodge, and the other party's reaction was so fast that people had to be amazed.
In a different position, Xuanyuan Chen was not sure that he could dodge that knife.
The old man looked at Xuanyuan Chen, he didn't expect the other party to be so fearless, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he suddenly thought of something, shook his head and smiled: "Today, I may not be able to kill you."
Before he finished speaking, his eyes froze, and he suddenly stopped saying more, looked to the side, and saw Leng Junao holding a sword in one hand and standing beside Xuanyuan Chen.
Leng Junao stood very straight, like a javelin rising into the sky, more like a sharp sword out of the sheath!
The sharpness of the sword was so sharp that no one could take it lightly, including the old man.
Leng Junao and Xuanyuan Chen stood side by side, looked at the old man coldly and said, "Your companion is dead, it's your turn next." His sword was blood-colored, like a blooming peach blossom, and it was very strange.
Behind him lay two corpses.
As soon as Ning Bing came out, he killed with one sword, and the two killers had no ability to resist at all in front of Leng Junao.
The old man didn't look at the two corpses on the ground, and suddenly a little strange look appeared on his face, and asked, "Who said those two killers were my companions?"
Xuanyuan Chen's face changed slightly, he didn't think that the old man would lie to him on this point, which meant that there was more than one person who wanted to kill him.
The old man smiled and said: "King Beiliang, there are really a lot of people who want to kill you, so it seems that it may be easier for you to die than to live, rather than being afraid every day, it is better to die and say goodbye to the troubles of the world completely."
Faced with the old man's persuasion to die, Xuanyuan Chen suddenly lowered his head, giving people the feeling that he was a little moved.
The old man's smile became thicker, revealing a hint of weirdness, but the smile didn't last long, I saw Xuanyuan Chen raise his head, and said with an extremely calm expression: "What you said has some truth, but ......" His tone was full of firmness: "I want to live well."
Alive, it's hard! But I just want to live!
The old man's eyes were gloomy, and he felt that he had been played, and the green tendons on his hand holding the copper mace were already prominent.
Leng Junao had a smile in his eyes, when had he heard Xuanyuan Chen say the phrase "live well", this sentence was full of heart, and the voice of his heart was not greedy for the world, but the indomitable will of the brave.
At this time, the old man suddenly turned his eyes, looked at Leng Jun and said arrogantly: "General Leng, this matter has nothing to do with you, do you have to ignore your own future and life and get involved?"
The smile in Leng Junao's eyes retracted, and the cold glint in his eyes was like a hardened sword, and he only responded to one word: "Yes!"
After saying this, Leng Junao felt a little strange in his heart, he really didn't understand why he wanted to help Xuanyuan Chen, he just succumbed to his own heart.
It was a strange feeling, and there was no reason for it, but he believed it.
The old man's eyes flickered, and his head was held high, "You are not my opponent either." His tone remained unmistakable.
Leng Junao smiled slightly and said frankly: "Yes!" It's not an opponent, and you have to shoot! ”
A simple sentence made Xuanyuan Chen's heart on the side hot, like a fire burning.
In this life, it is too boring to only find the weak to shoot. In this life, some things are destined to be done.
When the old man heard this, his face showed a look of struggle, his eyes kept wandering between Xuanyuan Chen and Leng Junao, and after a long time, he said, "Let's stop today!" He turned and walked, but slowly walked away.
The killing aura in the liquor shop dissipated in an instant.
The old man thought that he had won either between Xuanyuan Chen and Leng Junao, but he didn't make a move, because he couldn't be sure if the other two joined forces to win it.
He has always been cautious in his life, and he will never make a move if he is not sure.
Xuanyuan Chen and Leng Junao also didn't make a move, because even if they killed the old man, what was the point, the other party was just a killer who carried out orders, and the killer could never be killed before the real murderer behind the scenes.
The old man was far away, the person was gone, and the aftermath came with the wind: "King Beiliang, we will see you again!"
The wind was cold, and Xuanyuan Chen stood there stiffly, his heart stirring. After a long time, feeling that Leng Junao was still looking at him, Xuanyuan Chen turned his head and said in a low voice: "Brother Leng, let's go!"
Leng Junao put away his sword and returned it to its sheath, glanced at the corpse on the ground, and asked, "Where should I go?" When he asks where to go, he is actually trying to say where not to go.
Xuanyuan Chen smiled faintly, his smile dissipated, his face changed, and he said categorically: "Go to the county guard mansion, go to see Nangong Qianyue!"
