Chapter 43: Repeating the mistakes of the past
A few days passed, and as planned, the engagement feast began.
On this day, Zhou Ziming held Alice's hand and accepted the ceremony under the blessed eyes of all the guests.
The Alice next to her is the Alice who wins the world, although there is a big difference in personality, but the acting skills are the same outstanding, and no one except Li Sheng may have noticed that Alice is no longer the original Alice.
And Li Sheng naturally won't break it, he knows very well what the consequences of breaking it will be.
The hall was brightly lit, people were chatting happily, and the smell of delicious food spread through the air, containing the intoxicating smell of fine wine, it was a good day to celebrate.
Most of the people who came were the world's most famous power and business families, and they belonged to the speculators in this war, and the Tours, who had close contact with the toy box, naturally became the best attachments, and everyone wanted to find a place to hold on the lap of the Tours.
In their eyes, the red-haired man on the second floor will be Alice's husband in the future, as we all know, Alice is the most optimistic daughter of the head of the family Li Sheng, if she can become her husband, that ability should not be underestimated, take this opportunity to win over, and there will be no harm.
Looking at the laughing people, Zhou Ziming stood on the second floor with a mask-like smile on his face.
Alice beside her spoke to him sentence by sentence, trying to be as natural as possible.
According to Zhou Ziming's request, she couldn't be too happy, because the real Alice had not had any contact with Zhou Ziming before, so the sudden engagement was not something to be happy about for Alice.
So her image positioning is, an unpleasant but calm image.
"When will this end?" Alice asked Zhou Ziming quietly.
Zhou Ziming gently patted Alice's hand in the crook of his arm, and comforted: "It's soon, just wait until the troublemakers come out." ”
may be some kind of coincidence, Zhou Ziming just finished saying this, and the door opened with a bang.
A person slowly walked in, the cool evening breeze blew in from the broken door, blowing people's hair slightly floating, and the warmth of the guests was also blown away by the cool breeze, and they seemed to understand something when they saw the blood-stained long knife in her hand.
"I'm here for someone." Situ Qing said coldly.
"Could it be...... Did you come for me? Li Sheng appeared from the crowd, he was calm, holding a wine glass in his hand, a pair of sharp eyes looked each other up and down, and the pupils flashed, as if he remembered something.
Zhou Ziming stood on the second floor, looking condescendingly, and Situ Qing below shook his hand to unfold a picture scroll.
All of this is familiar, he has seen many, many times, in the reincarnation of failure again and again, Zhou Ziming can even recite the next conversation between the two sides.
Then there is the exact same scene, the two of you and I have said a few words, and then the fight begins.
The remnant grass force appeared at the moment, Situ Qing and the assassins of the remnant grass force became bigger, in the shadow of the sword and sword, blood light flew, and the murderous aura spread wantonly in this space, and the clanging metal clash completely dispersed the joyful atmosphere of the engagement banquet.
At this time, it is time for him to appear.
"On such an important day, there was an uninvited guest, and I was in a bad mood." Zhou Ziming said coldly, successfully attracting Situ Qing's gaze, he put one hand around Alice's slender waist beside him, and looked at each other arrogantly.
The two twin assassins attacked Situ Qing, and then there was a fierce fight, Zhou Ziming stood on the second floor, silently watching this scene, Alice in his arms seemed to hate his hug very much, and her body twisted uneasily.
Situ Qing below was fighting fiercely with a number of assassins, and he was already a little injured, the remnant grass assassins of the Tours family were all first-class masters, although this woman didn't look weak, but after all, she was in a weak position in numbers, and if it continued like this, the situation would be even more disadvantageous.
Is this the result that Zhou Ziming wants? Alice was puzzled.
If Zhou Ziming simply wanted this woman to die, then with his own strength, it was enough, and there was no need to go to great lengths to let the assassins of the Tours family kill her.
So Alice felt that Zhou Ziming's purpose was not to let this woman die.
But since you don't want the other party to die, why are you still indifferent now? What was he thinking about?
"Hey! She's the one you're waiting for, so why not give her a hand? Alice asked, puzzled.
Zhou Ziming smiled slightly and shook his head: "I have to wait for one kick, and now I need to wait for another one to appear." Undoubtedly, the other person he spoke of was the contemporary Su Ming.
"Another person?" Alice frowned suspiciously.
Zhou Ziming nodded: "Yes, it's coming soon." ”
"Three!" He began to count down.
"Two!"
"One!"
"It's coming!"
As Zhou Ziming's report was finished, a gunshot rang out outside the door, and a bullet flew from nowhere and shot into the heart of one of the twin assassins.
A black-haired boy rushed directly into the battlefield from outside the door, he was fast, like a gust of wind, and like a knife, cutting the battlefield with precision and sharpness, breaking the original pattern and resetting the balance of victory and defeat.
Everything was expected by Zhou Ziming.
Okay, just keep it on, and let this drama go on like this.
Zhou Ziming thought silently in his heart, and he pulled Alice to slowly retreat into a corner, and the next development could roughly guess that Situ Qing chased Li Sheng to the cliff alone, and he had already told Li Sheng that he would be ambushed there.
"Come with me!" Zhou Ziming dragged Alice.
"Why don't you go alone?!"
"Don't talk nonsense, follow me quietly." Zhou Ziming reprimanded.
Zhou Ziming dragged Alice out of the mansion, from the back door, following the direction of Li Sheng's escape, into the bushes and scurrying, the lush and messy branches cut through Alice's gauze skirt, she had to tear a gap in the skirt at the base of her thighs, so that she could keep up with Zhou Ziming's pace.
After that, Situ Qing ran out of the house after her, and after hesitating at the intersection, she also got into the bushes, her intuition is very keen, but sometimes, it is precisely this keen intuition that is easier to be taken advantage of.
Zhou Ziming pulled Alice to squat down in a bush, looking out through the sparse gap, Li Sheng ran out of the woods, and then hid along the gap in the cliff, and after Li Sheng hid for a few seconds, Situ Qing also pierced out of it.
Zhou Ziming gently stretched out his hand and covered Alice's mouth.
Her snort was too heavy, and although she knew that the other party was tired after high-intensity exercise, she couldn't reveal her whereabouts now.
watched Situ Qing hesitate on the cliff for a moment, and finally found Li Sheng through the gap and pulled him out.
Situ Qing stretched out his hand, grabbed the other party's collar, and dragged him back to the cliff.
Li Sheng fell to the ground in embarrassment, and his throat was pressed against the sword of Zimu.
"Say! Why did you kill my brother in the first place! Situ Qing asked, and as he asked, the tip of the sword moved forward a little, and a trace of blood flowed down Li Sheng's neck.
"When...... At that time, he wanted to kill me, and I had to kill him, I didn't mean to kill him. Li Sheng replied in a hurry, holding his hands on the ground, trying to move slowly backwards, trying to get away from the blade in front of his throat.
And Situ followed step by step, not giving him a chance at all.
"Why did he kill you? Xiao Ming will not kill people for no reason. ”
"Nameless? Don't...... Didn't she tell you? Li Sheng suddenly asked.
Situ Qing's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he made up his mind in his heart: "Just let it be your fault." ”
After saying that, she raised the blade, and when she was about to go down, Zhou Ziming's ability was activated, and the blade that the opponent was about to fall was directly pulled.
Li Sheng stood up from the ground and said coldly: "Do you think you can kill me like this?" ”
Zhou Ziming walked out of the dark forest with a smile, and his other hand was tightly clasped by Alice's hand.
Situ Qing pulled his son-mother sword fiercely, but he could only watch being pulled away by the son-mother sword.
Zhou Ziming hooked his fingers, and the Zimu Sword instantly broke out of her control and flew into Zhou Ziming's hand.
"Remember me?" Zhou Ziming smiled and opened his mouth to Situ Qing, and as he spoke, he opened his bangs, revealing the eye-catching centipede-like scar in his left eye.
"You're the one in the game! You are...... Zhou Ziming?! ”
Zhou Ziming waved the sword in his hand and inserted it into the rock crack at his feet: "It's really an honor, it seems that you still remember me." ”
After that, Zhou Ziming asked Li Sheng to leave with Alice.
Li Sheng and Alice disappeared into the woods, and only Zhou Ziming and Situ Qing were left on the cliff. Zhou Ziming looked up at the moon, and his eyes flashed with emotion.
"It's finally here, another reincarnation."
"What are you talking about? What reincarnation? ”
Situ Qing leaned against the rock wall and looked at the strange man in front of him: "Hey, where did you get that Zimu Sword?" ”
"You don't need to know."
"It's because of you and I that we continue to search!" Situ Qing's voice was fierce.
"You're dying, there's no need to know."
Before the words fell, Zhou Ziming took a step, and his figure disappeared directly in place, and in the next second, he grabbed the other party's throat and lifted him off the ground.
"Killing me...... Before, can you tell me the answer to the question. Situ Qing gave up struggling, stared into the other party's eyes, and said with difficulty and seriousness.
"Nope." Zhou Ziming replied without hesitation.
"For ...... What the? ”
Glancing at the other party, Zhou Ziming finally sighed: "Okay, I don't have much time, but if it's your request, I'm very willing to help you complete it." ”
After that, Zhou Ziming whispered a few words in the other party's ear.
Situ Qing's pupils suddenly dilated, shocked beyond measure, she turned her head to look at Zhou Ziming, shook her head in disbelief, and then only felt a cold object enter her body, writhing, severe pain came from her lower abdomen, Situ Qing's expression completely froze.
"Szeto !!" A roar came from the sand below the cliffs.
Su Ming roared: "Let go of her!" ”
I said...... Let her go for me!! His eyes were red.
Zhou Ziming was condescending, smiled mockingly at Su Ming, and with a casual move, the Zimu sword not far away flew into his hand.
He raised his sword and plunged it into Situ Qing's left chest quickly and powerfully, and at the same time flew up with a kick to crush his heart, sending the dagger inserted in the opponent's lower abdomen into his abdomen, and Situ Qing spun and fell into the turbulent waves like a kite with a broken string.
"Bastard!! I'll kill you!!! ”
