Chapter 279: The Cat's Nine Lives
The assassins of the Black House organization are all purposeful, either following the current situation, or being entrusted by others, as big as killing emperors, as small as killing people, they hide in the dark, in fact, there is no distinction between justice and evil, just like a scale tool, which is used to balance the left and right ends.
They are more like orderly beings.
In any case, the black group at that time had not really formed its own organizational system.
It was not until the Republic of China period, when the world pattern was turbulent, that this organization formed a real self and completed its transformation, becoming the most terrifying assassination organization in the dark, until now.
But the problem is that everyone listens to this as a story, and no one has actually seen the assassins in the Black House Organization, especially in this era, it is impossible to see them.
There have been rumors that the Black House has dealt with and even cooperated with the Ghost Eradication Realm, but the problem is that this is just a rumor, and if people really want to say it, no one can say why.
But there are stories about them, such as noses and eyes, and all assassins have tattoos on their palms, and those who see tattoos die, and there are even declarations "We exist, we are with the darkness", and so on. All in all, this is a mysterious organization, whether it exists or not, and no one has ever seen it, but the story about them has always been legendary, and it sounds mysterious.
After listening to Chen Xie and Wu Tian tell this story, the boss with his whole mouth open, couldn't react for a long time.
"I'm afraid you didn't make this up, right?!" The corners of my mouth twitched twice, and I couldn't believe it anyway: "According to this, this organization has been in existence for five hundred years, infiltrated all corners, and assassinated so many emperors, this is impossible!" ”
"I don't think it's possible, either." Chen Xie frowned and said, "But how do those two people explain it?" Regarding the Black Room, no one can prove that they exist, but no one can prove that they don't exist, you know what I mean? ”
I nodded as if I didn't understand, "I understand!" ”
Actually, I don't really understand what he means, but I can probably hear some signs from this story.
"To put it bluntly, it's not an ordinary organization, don't you mean that?"
"It's not as simple as an organization." Chen Xie said calmly: "There are still stories circulating in the black house that can exist for so long, and it is not just an organization. ”
"So what now?" I said: "After all, we have already tied up those two people, how can I say that we have caused a haunted house, it is impossible to let them go, but looking at their appearance, it seems that we have not notified others yet, or we will never have trouble?" ”
"Just what I want!" Wu Tian stood up solemnly when he heard this, his face was tense, and he already held the knife in his hand.
Seeing this, Chen Xie hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't worry, I have a better way." ”
"What's the solution?"
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend." Chen Xie said seriously: "As an assassin, they have revealed their identities, in fact, even if we don't kill them, the inside of the black house will not let them go, why don't you rebel against them?" ”
“??” Wu Tian and I looked at Chen Xie with question marks on our faces: "Are you kidding?" ”
"I think these two people are timid and afraid of things, they are all greedy for life and afraid of death, and it shouldn't be difficult to rebel against them." Chen Xiedao: "If you can rebel against them, you can also count as many helpers, although the strength of the two is not good, but as assassins, there should be no problem in concealing their whereabouts and investigating." ”
Hearing him say this, I immediately remembered that these two people followed me into the bathhouse, and suddenly one head and two big heads, expressed great doubts about their hidden whereabouts and investigation ability.
"But what are you going to do with them?" I looked at Chen Xie and didn't understand.
His eyes were unusually serious, he paused for a moment, and said, "I want to use them to investigate Master's death." ”
"Ahh Will this work? Wu Tianyan's face was stunned when he heard this, and he looked at his senior brother: "What if they don't want to?" ”
"It's up to them now." Chen Xie rarely smiled, but this smile gave people a creepy feeling.
After we finished talking, Chen Xie went to rebel against these two people, and I was more worried about Fat Boy and Chen Qing, so I didn't follow and went back to the house.
Chen Qing is still in the wooden basin, the scars on the shoes are extremely eye-catching, and from time to time scarlet blood will flow out of it, which makes people worry about it, and I don't know when I will recover.
The fat boy has been relatively good for a long time, and according to Chen Xie, when we went out, he got up to eat something, and then went back to sleep.
I sat beside him, touching his bulging head, and remembered the attack he gave his life to block for me when I had dealt with the painter before, and I couldn't help but be extremely moved.
I couldn't help but sigh: "I've made you suffer, fat boy." ”
Its chubby belly fell together, sleeping soundly, I couldn't bear to disturb, sat for a while and left, came to the room where the two people were held, went in to see, Chen Xie was trying to persuade the two, Wu Tian stood next to him, holding a knife in his hand, and couldn't help but disobey.
"It's... This will not work! How can we betray the Order! The short one was very backbone, he didn't eat Chen Xie's set at all, he knelt on the ground and gritted his teeth, with an indignant expression: "Okay! Don't say any more! The two of us wouldn't do that! I won't! My brother won't! ”
"Who said I wouldn't!" The tall man's tone was sharper than his: "Why can't you live with your own life!" When you were young, you forgot how our father taught us? You have to have a good eye, you know? You get beaten all day because you're brainless, you know? ”
The short man who said something was suddenly speechless, dumbfounded, and knelt there as if he was petrified, looking at his brother with strange eyes, I guess he was doubting life.
"Hey, hey... He is not sensible, you say, let's do what? After Gao finished speaking, he chatted with Chen Xie, looking familiar.
"I don't know yet, but as long as you have this heart, I can keep you from dying." Chen Xie looked at them: "Since you said that you are the assassin, how terrible is the consequences of betraying the organization, you yourself know that you will die anyway, why don't you help me first, with my current status as the head of the warlock, I can still protect you, how about it?" Promised? ”
"Good, good, no problem! I'll knock one first! Saying this, the tall one took the lead in "poofing" and kowtowed.
"Nope! I don't from! I'm resolute...! The short one desperately disagreed, and the tall one pressed his head to the ground, and said angrily: "Let you have a little eyesight, why don't you listen!" ”
Pressing his head to let him finish, the kid straightened up, and said very arrogantly: "Let's say it first, I'm not afraid of death, I agreed for my brother!" ”
"Good, good." Chen Xie laughed, this is the second time I have seen him laugh until now, he said: "No matter who it is for, it is better to survive than to die, okay, Wu Tian, you let them go first, I have something to say later." ”
After speaking, Chen Xie walked up to me and whispered, "Tu Qian, you come, I'll tell you something." ”
When I saw that he was mysterious, I followed him curiously, walked under the peach tree in the courtyard, looked at him blankly and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"How's the fat boy?" He asked.
"Looks pretty much good, what's the problem?"
"You know that Fat Boy is a spirit, right?" He asked rhetorically, and I nodded a little blankly: "I know." ”
"Then you should also know that once the spirit dies, it ceases to exist." His tone became serious: "What I want to tell you is that this time is really fateful, if you get a little more injured, I'm afraid the fat boy will..."
I was saddened when I heard this, and I felt sad for a while, and said with a wry smile: "The world says that cats have nine lives, but why is the fat boy so pitiful, from the time I met him, he was a spirit..."
When Chen Xie heard my words, his expression became a little confused, and he suddenly asked rhetorically: "Cats do have nine lives, don't you know?" ”
"Huh?" I looked up at him and saw that he didn't look like he was joking, although he wasn't joking either.
I was shocked: "Are you serious? ”
"Cats do have nine lives." He nodded and said: "This is a different forum that has been introduced a long time ago, and this is what I want to tell you, I thought you had realized it, but it seems that there is still none." ”
"What do you mean?"
"The fat boy is a spirit body, which means that his nine lives have been completed, and he has become like this."
I froze in place when I heard this, and there was a roar in my head: "... You mean, Fat Boy... Already died nine times? ”
He nodded, very seriously: "The nine lives of cats are not the same, every time they die, they will be reincarnated into another cat, among these cats, some remember the memories of their previous lives, but some may not remember, when they wander in the world, after all the nine lives are used up, they will become spirits, and there will be no chance of reincarnation, and once the spirit body dies, then the cat will not exist at all, I am talking about non-existence in the real sense, do you understand?" ”
I looked at him again as if I didn't understand, and I was a little speechless: "Probably... Got it.."
