6. The Killer (I)
When night falls, Phoenix is enveloped in the romance of the Tuojiang River.
Jingchi Yukimi was bewildered by the flowers and wanted to jump into the rock to release the river lantern.
After dinner, the young people walked out of the Chen Family Inn, only Nomura Hanami and Aunt Die still accompanied the two old men to play mahjong.
It's probably safe in Phoenix, so Zhu Tong doesn't have any opinions.
Huang Hai and Ye Er were still a little worried, the reason why the game was disbanded in the afternoon was because Huang Hai received a call from Wang Xiangjiao. Zhu Tong didn't know what Wang Xiangjiao said, but Huang Hai's mood was a little low, and things should have some twists and turns, at least not as smoothly as expected.
According to the previous agreement, Ichi Yukimi will stay here for seven days, and Zhu Tong is a little skeptical that there will be a change from Wang to Frame Hope in seven days.
As in previous years, there are still few tourists in Phoenix this season, and only two couples are jumping on the rock to put river lanterns.
Huahua and Jingchi Xuemei each bought a basket of river lanterns, squatted on the rock jumping and laughed to enjoy the rare relaxation.
Ye Er didn't put the river lantern, she stayed on the left side of Jingchi Xuemei on the rock jumping; The Yellow Sea is on the right bank.
The most relaxed is the little liar, sitting in the bar on the left bank of the river, pushing open the lattice window to enjoy the night view of the Tuojiang River.
The half-round bright moon rises on the Hongqiao, the water of the Qingqing River is sprinkled with the moonlight, and the strings of river lights are like beautiful dreams, floating into the distance.
"It's going to snow." A familiar voice rang in my ears.
Zhu Tong turned his head, and a petite woman sat down opposite.
"Smoke? How did you end up here? β
"Surprised? I'm still vulgar. Yanzi straightened the short hair on her head and smiled charmingly. She now looks like an outdoor traveler when they first met three years ago.
The cigarette skillfully puffed out a cigarette and held it to his lips; Zhu Tong "snapped" and pressed the ZIPPO lighter.
"Thanks, I'll do it myself." The cigarette turned his head away and took out a slender silver lighter, but did not light it, but only played with it in his hand.
The little liar shook his head and smiled, Yanzi didn't know the secrets in the ZIPPO before, even if Jiang Xiaoyu had suffered the loss of this firer, he shouldn't have behaved so carefully.
The waiter came over, brought a bottle of red wine to the cigarette, and lit a cigarette for her.
"Thank you." The smoke gave the waiter a smile and slowly spewed out a wisp of smoke, but it did not disperse, forming a heart-shaped smoke ring between the two.
"Zhu Lang, do you remember the days we were together? This year, I often look back on those times, and every time I can't figure out, why did you leave me? If there's anything wrong, I can change it, as long as you say it. β
Zhu Tong took off his glasses and squinted at Yanzi: "Do you want to hear the truth?" β
"Of course." A glint of hope flashed in Smoke's eyes, and the heart-shaped smoke ring lost its support and dissipated.
"The main reason why you are doing well is because I am tired of that life and want to live a normal life for a few days. Smoke, if you want to talk about your reasons, now I think about it only two points. First, you shouldn't hide your identity, how lucky it should be for the eldest lady of Wupin Qingyang to be able to look down on me, a prodigal son in the rivers and lakes....... β
"I told you." Smoke interrupted him anxiously, defending.
"That was a year later, and at first you only said that you were a disciple of the Meishan faction, but you didn't say Wupin Qingyang, and you didn't say anything about your brother Jiang Xiaoyu."
"If it's because of my brother, I apologize. But I didn't dare to say it at the time, because my brother had offended Senior Brother Zhumen, and I was afraid that you would have an opinion. Smoke looked gloomy, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it with his head up.
Zhu Tong also took a sip of tea and turned his head to look out the window; It seems that Ichi Yukimi is immersed in the game of releasing river lanterns, and it won't end for a while, so there should be some time.
"Well, that's okay with that. The second point is that you are too greedy. I wish the door to have rules, do business within your ability, but also in moderation. You're adventurous, and if we're still together, we'll capsize sooner or later. At that time, not only you, but Zhumen and I will be affected. That's why I chose to leave you, put aside the business for the time being, and wait for things to calm down. β
Yanzi looked at Zhu Tong, and wanted to open his mouth several times but didn't know what to say; Zhu Tong is so smart, any justification is futile.
"Are you quiet now?"
"Nope." Zhu Tong smiled and looked at the leaves on the jumping rock; "But I got something more precious, Smoke, and it was a mistake for us to be together, and that wasn't love. I could leave everything behind for her, even this life. As long as I need to, I can die for her, and if anyone dares to hurt her, I will make him worse than dead. β
Talking about another woman in front of a past lover and exaggerating the intensity of this relationship is the most taboo thing. But Zhu Tong just wanted to stimulate the smoke, at this moment, he felt that the arrival of the smoke was not simple, the end of the slender lighter in her hand had been facing her, and the slender fingers had not left the button of the lighter. Out of the instinct of the disciple of Zhumen, he vaguely realized that it was not just a simple fire machine, but also a delicate secret weapon like his own ZIPPO.
The most famous skill of Master Yuan is to hide needles in laughter, with Yanzi's current cultivation, there is no green bee needle as thin as a cow's hair between his mouth and tongue; But Zhu Tong wondered if the lighter in her hand was a mechanism that fired green bee needles.
Smoke was enraged, gritting his teeth and looking out the window. At the moment when she lost her mind, the teacup in Zhu Tong's hand buckled towards Yanzi's right hand like lightning.
"Ahh What are you doing? Smoke exclaimed, covering his wrists; Tea spilled all over the table.
"Don't do anything, I don't want to be an unjustly killed ghost." Zhu Tong shook the teacup in his hand and approached the candle on the table to take a closer look.
The slender lighter had shattered into two pieces, and there were indeed several green bee needles on the wall of the teacup, and the cigarette had already pressed the launch button the moment he shot.
"You shouldn't talk so much nonsense, since you're a killer, you have to be clean." Zhu Tong turned Feng Xinghao with his right hand, and after a moment, the black crystal on the needle body flashed a few times.
"Look, I have needles too." As soon as Yanzi was confused, he saw Zhu Tong's fingers flick, and a trace of heat soaked into his body from the left side of his neck.
"You should do this, since you want to make a move, you have to be fast, and don't give the other party any chance." Zhu Tong stood up and reached out to pick up Feng Xinghao, who was tied to Yanzi's neck.
The smoke deftly dodged away, and just as he was about to escape from this bar, he suddenly felt a sharp shock in his chest, and the strength around his body was drained, and he couldn't even move his fingers.
"Remember to pay for the drink." Zhu Tong took off Feng Xinghao, carefully wiped it a few times, and carefully put it into the cuffs. "You don't have a chance, your life and death are in the palm of my hand in the future. Don't be tempted, you can't approach me easily, you have a life and death charm on your body, only I can unlock it. With a wave of his hand, Smoke regained his mobility, but he didn't dare to move. The current Zhu Tong is so strange, ghostly and mysterious.
There was no life and death charm on Yanzi's body, and Zhu Tong planted a Gu chrysalis in her.
Little liars have always been cautious, and they are accustomed to planning before acting. Through the experience of this period of time and the communication with Aunt Die, I gradually summed up a little rule.
Every time the moon is full, the butterfly god is the most restless, and it is about the time to cultivate a Gu chrysalis. And if he and Aunt Butterfly let the two Butterfly Gods meet through the Divine Transmission Amber, they will not be subject to this restriction.
The cigarette is unlucky, today is the full moon day, and this month's Gu Chrysalis has not been wasted.
The loser must be very frustrated, Yanzi paid for the wine with a cold face and was leaving, Zhu Tong looked at the rock jumping on the Tuojiang River, and said: "Don't worry, there is still some time, just talk about it, I'm bored now." β
Smoke had no choice but to sit down, and the little liar began to reason. What's ridiculous is that he is full of morality in the rivers and lakes, saying that Yanzi should die for conspiring against his fellow people in the rivers and lakes, and that Jiang Xiaoyu's conspiracy to harm people is a big rebellion. But for the sake of harmony in the rivers and lakes, for a better future, the little liar hopes that Yanzi can get rid of his previous suspicions, and so on.
Zhu Tong finally suggested that Yanzi convey a few words to Jiang Xiaoyu: "The fish die and the net is broken or live in harmony, this is the first sentence; The second sentence is, if you want people not to know, you can't do it unless you do. β
"Zhu Lang, I have decided to leave the rivers and lakes. I'm not here today to kill you, but to see you. I have already obtained a passport to study in the United States, the Jiang family's business...... It has nothing to do with me for a long time. Smoke left a sentence and walked away in confusion; Zhu Tong, who was just as confused as her, sat down in his original position, thinking about what she meant.
"It's going to snow." A familiar voice sounded in my ears again, but the difference was that a copper coin fell on the table at the same time.
"Mr. Baili?" Zhu Tong looked at this middle-aged man dressed as a bar waiter in amazement, it was the head of Qianmen who had been quietly in the near future.
"I wish the head of the family well; You're really amazing. Baili Xiao handed Zhu Tong a cup of hot tea and sat down across from him.
"Baili Master, I am now the Zhumen doctor." Zhu Tong calmed down and held the teacup with both hands.
"Oh, it turned out to be Dr. Zhu. But I'm no longer the head of a hundred miles, and now I'm an idle cloud and a wild crane. He looked at Zhu Tong with a smile; Fortunately, I still have some savings and bought this bar to hide away. Doctor Zhu, Phoenix City is originally the territory of Zhumen, and it can be tolerated for a hundred miles to protect your door? β
"Haha, Baili...... The boss is having fun, Phoenix is not a Zhumen territory, as long as the boss of Baili lives comfortably. Hey? I think the boss of Baili is more comfortable to call than the head of Baili, does Mr. know why? β
Zhu Tong had a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of scrutiny; It's not that he doesn't believe in Bailixiao, at this critical juncture, everyone and everything must be more careful.
Bailixiao let out a long sigh and unbuttoned the clothes on his chest, revealing a pink wound.
"Tian Gongzi asked a disciple of Qianmen to be his thug, I didn't agree, I didn't expect him to secretly contact and win over the one-armed reckless man, and lead outsiders to plot against me. You should have seen that killer, it was the young man next to Tian Xuyang. Three months ago, Jiang Xiaoyu introduced him to Tian Gongzi's side as a personal bodyguard. I was stabbed by him, and there's a bullet here. Finally, the water is okay, and I escaped by jumping into the sea. He pointed to his waist with his left back.
"It's a pity, Boss Baili is really unlucky." Zhu Tong put away his doubts, this explanation is more reasonable.
