Chapter 32: Gloomy (Ending)
With a "bang", the sword stabbed into a hard thing, the tip of the sword pierced halfway, and it could not go deeper, and the hilt of the sword also came out of Xu Chong's palm because of the resistance, and the sword trembled, making a "clanging" sound.
Xu Chong's tiger mouth cracked, but the pain from his palm made his brain clear all of a sudden, he covered his hand and looked ahead, squinting his eyes for a long time, before he could see clearly what was blocking his way.
It was the man he had killed on the edge of the cliff, and his name was still unknown.
The man's body had already been frozen, so the sword above could not pierce him. However, the wound on his stomach was still shocking, and his intestines gushed out of it, dragged to the ground, and were frozen into an iron rod by the wind and snow.
They are all alive, the man in front of them, Wu Yuanli, those who were killed by him, are now alive one by one, he doesn't know why, but he knows what their purpose is.
They were going to accuse him of his evil deeds and expose him to the sun for the wrongs he had so painstakingly hidden.
Xu Chong knew that of course this was not witchcraft, witchcraft was used to deceive people, but they were here to point out the real murderer.
Xu Chong looked at him, and suddenly stretched out his hand, wanting to pull out his sword, but as soon as his hand touched the hilt of the sword, the man grabbed his wrist.
"Lord Xu...... You killed...... Killed the villain once, and still want to ...... I still want to kill ...... Kill the second time? ”
The man was frozen so hard that his upper and lower lips were glued together, and he couldn't speak clearly. The expression on his face was still exactly the same as when he died, consternation and fear, condensed on such a frozen and blackened face, which looked terrifying and funny. However, his hands were tightly wrapped around Xu Chong, and his black nails sank into the flesh, grabbing him with blood.
Xu Chong felt a "boom" in his head, and his lips and tongue seemed to disobey the call, and let out a dry howl.
"Are you finally scared?" Zhao Zimai's voice drilled into his ears, as if it was broken into several pieces, and it was easy for him to piece together these fragmented words and understand the meaning of his words, "He told me that when you killed Hu Bing on the edge of the cliff because of his wrongful case, I thought that you might have been confused for a while, killed someone by mistake, and fell into the cliff because of remorse." But I didn't expect that not only were you not confused, but you took every step of the way, calculated carefully, and did not hesitate to sacrifice others for your reputation. Xu Chong, in order to cover up a mistake, you unknowingly walked into the abyss of no return, why is this happening? I don't understand, even now, I clearly see that you did all this, I still can't understand how such a disdainful and disdainful of colluding with the hypocritical management of officialdom Xu Chong degenerated to this point? ”
"Don't think about it so clearly," Xu Chong smiled, he was always able to calm down quickly, and Fang Cai's howl full of fear seemed to be just the true side that he revealed carelessly, "Zhao Zimai, don't think about everything so clearly, otherwise you will find that there are countless ravines in front of you that can't be crossed, and it will be too tiring to live like that." ”
At this moment, he still didn't want to talk about his heart, perhaps, that place that no one had ever walked into, even Xu Chong himself couldn't see through. As he said, understanding and suffering always go hand in hand, and if you choose the former, the latter will surely follow.
"Xu Chong." Zhao Zimai was still unwilling, at this moment, he seemed to see his own shadow in Xu Chong, and when he approached him, he seemed to be one step closer to him.
But he didn't finish his words, because Xu Chong suddenly stretched out his other hand, pulled out the sword on the corpse's chest, and cut off the arm that grabbed him in between the ups and downs.
Ziyu screamed, but Xu Chong didn't look at her, he was now focusing all his attention on the corpse with a severed hand that was walking towards him.
Xu Chong took a few steps back, and the long sword dragged on the ground, splashing out a spark.
Suddenly, he let out a loud roar, jumped up, grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out, slashing Shang Fang's sword towards the top of the corpse's head.
"Poof."
The corpse was split in half in front of Zhao Zimai's eyes, and then, before anyone could react, Xu Chong rushed out of the blood mist that had not yet dissipated, grabbed Zhao Zimai's arm and turned it around, and put Shang Fang's sword on his neck.
"Childe." Baotian was so anxious that he wanted to rush over, but was stopped by San-chi.
"Xu Chong is now an outlaw, if you take a step closer, you are not afraid that he will wipe your son-in-law's neck with fine skin and tender flesh?" Sang had a playful smile on his face, and he didn't look nervous in the slightest.
"What then? Childe is now in his hands, don't you just ask? Baotian was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and that appearance was alive and well off a hairy monkey with six gods and no owner.
Sang glared at him, "A person who is bent on seeking death, as long as you satisfy him and let him die, are you afraid that he will not return your son-in-law to you?" ”
Although the tone was not shocked, but its gaze was locked on the two of them, and now, Xu Chong had already taken Zhao Zimai hostage and walked around everyone, Sang guessed well, he did not go down the mountain, but walked in the direction of the cliff.
Ailao Mountain is a stone mountain, the mountain stone is covered with heavy snow, and it is slippery, and if you are not careful, you will fall down if you walk on it. However, Xu Chong walked extremely steadily, stepping on every step solidly, leaving a series of solid footprints on the snow.
Zhao Zimai followed him, not struggling at all, he knew that Xu Chong would not hurt himself, even if his sharp blade never left his neck for half an inch.
"Figured it out? Jump down this time, and no one will save you. "The cliff is right in front of you, a black one, against the background of the snow, it looks more and more black and whiter, as if two completely different worlds.
Xu Chong smiled faintly, "Actually, I took this step a long time ago, not when I killed someone for the first time, let alone now, it's just that I covered it up too well, so you didn't find out what kind of person Xu Chong was." ”
Zhao Zimai's heart trembled, he suddenly thought of his sister's back, and he saw himself stretch out his hand and gently push her back.
With a "bang", she fell, and he remembered that the well water was very dark, just like the cliff in front of him.
"Once you take the first step, you can't go back?" Zhao Zimai didn't know if he was talking to himself or asking Xu Chong.
"There's no going back, there's no going back."
Xu Chong's voice drifted away from his ears, drifting farther and farther, he suddenly turned around, only to see the Shang Fang sword that Xu Chong had thrown away, alone on the cliff, like any ordinary sword, eclipsed.
