Chapter 47: The Wish of the Gods
Lin Bo finished talking about the terrible experience of that day intermittently, and slowly exhaled a long breath, and his face returned to his usual haughty demeanor. This matter has been hidden in his heart for so many years, like a heavy stone pressed in his heart, and today it finally fell to the ground.
Qi Lu finally learned the truth about Lin Fang's murder from Lin Bo's mouth, and he guessed the general content without saying anything about Qi Lu.
After Lin Bo killed Lin Fang, he was afraid that his crime would be exposed and he would be sentenced to death, so he temporarily buried Lin Fang's head under the tree where he had placed his hoe, and then tied the body to a big stone and sank it to the bottom of the pond. After he cleaned up all traces of the scene, he hid the treasure to a hidden location that only he knew, and then went to the theater with the villagers as if he was fine, creating evidence of his alibi.
Qi Lu sighed and said, "One wrong step, one wrong step." If you were willing to give her a little gem, Lin Fang would not have died. ”
"Hmph, it was that slut who was looking for death by herself, and she wouldn't have saved her if she had known."
"You're wrong" Qi Lu said sharply: "If you don't save her, you won't be able to find the treasure at all." ”
"Hehe, what are you talking nonsense, I spent so much energy, and the treasure naturally fell into the hands of people with intentions."
"The person who cast the Songwen sword was Ou Yezi, a famous swordsman in the Warring States Period, who was upright by nature and hated traitors the most in his life. I've always wondered why this sword became a magic sword, and today I understand the reason. ”
"What do you want to say?"
"The Songwen Sword is by no means a magic sword, but because you killed Lin Fang with it, causing her wronged soul to possess the sword, the sword has the power of a curse."
Seeing that Lin Bo still didn't believe it, Qi Lu sighed and said: "Every sword cast by Ou Yezi has instilled his own sword-casting concept, that is, Rendao still don't understand why the sword light stayed in place when the Songwen Sword was dug out that day?"
Lin Bo sneered and said, "What is the reason, you might as well tell me about it." ”
"That's because Songwen Jian sensed your kindness to save people, so he was willing to show the burial location for you to get it."
Hearing this, the corners of Lin Bo's mouth suddenly trembled violently, as if someone had slapped him hard. However, his face immediately returned to his normal color, and he laughed gloomily.
Only those who claim to be righteous gentlemen will believe these frivolous truths. You're such a stupid person, and my eldest brother suffers from it. ”
"Don't wear a high hat, I'm not a gentleman, I only believe that heaven is clear and retribution is unpleasant."
"Hey, hey, hey" Lin Bo laughed wildly, and after laughing, he said to Qi Lu: "The real reason why Songwen Sword belongs to me is not the bullshit you said at all. ”
"Oh, then I'll listen to your opinions, too." Qi Lu's eyes were a little more pity.
Lin Bo smoked a cigarette, he exhaled a puff of smoke elegantly, and then told Qi Lu an unexpected story.
"After I killed Lin Fang that day, the Songwen Sword suddenly emitted a blazing light, followed by a strange cry of ghosts and wolves in the sky, which frightened me to throw the sword on the ground, thinking that God was going to punish me." Limpo continued: "It was not until much later that I understood the reason for this, and it turned out that the God of Wealth had come to protect me."
Qi Lu was speechless in surprise, he didn't expect that there was another story behind this.
"After I hid the treasures, I never dared to take them out and sell them to others. After the reform and opening up, seeing that the people in the same village had made a fortune one by one, I thought about finding a suitable buyer to sell the treasure to him. But I'm worried that after the treasure returns to the world, the killing of Lin Fang will also be discovered. Just when I was in a dilemma, in the summer of 1990, a god appeared to me and helped me solve this problem. ”
"Hehe, are the gods also greedy for money" Qi Lu's words were full of sarcasm.
Lin Bo ignored him, he drank another cup of tea and took a breath of relief and said: "That day after I came back from buying fertilizer from the city, I was alone in the yard to cool off, and suddenly I heard someone calling me, I looked back and found a very thin old man behind me greeting me with a smile."
"Thin old man" Qi Lu was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked him: "What does this old man look like?"
"Hmph, you don't deserve to know the dignity of the immortals" Lin Bo didn't answer Qi Lu's question, but continued: "I wondered at the time, the door is locked, how did he come in I saw him drifting over as if his feet were not touching the ground, and I was very scared, thinking that I had seen a ghost in broad daylight, and I was worried about whether he was a ghost called by Lin Fang to kill me." But what he said next surprised me even more."
"What did he say, did you want you to hand over the Songwen Sword to him" Seeing that Lin Bo was smoking again, Qi Lu hurriedly interjected and asked.
He said that he was an immortal who had been degraded to earth, and because he had offended the gods by helping Wu Wangfu defeat the Yue Kingdom in private, the Emperor of Heaven ordered Ou Yezi to cast a divine sword and imprison him in the body of the sword. For 2,000 years, he searched for someone to break the seal, until he met me. ”
"There is still such a story." Qi Lu sneered and said, "You're not afraid that he is an evil god and will harm you in the end."
"You are wrong, I am where I am today thanks to him." Limpo said proudly: "In order to repay me for saving my life, he is willing to help me fulfill three wishes." ”
"It sounds like a Chinese version of the story of Aladdin's magic lamp elf, so what kind of wish does he help you achieve?"
"Of course, my first wish is to safely sell the jewelry and Songwen Sword to others, and then let my fortune roll in."
"It's so troublesome" Qi Lu frowned and said: "The immortal is omnipotent, why don't you ask him to give you hundreds of millions of yuan directly"
"Because the gods don't want to be too public, and at the same time, he is worried that directly helping me will lead to the exposure of his whereabouts, so that the gods of the heavenly realm will know that he has broken free from the cage, and then send someone to reseal him."
"That sounds like a lot of truth." Qi Lu then asked: "Then how did he actually make you prosperous?"
"That year, the domestic securities company opened, and most people did not expect that this was a good opportunity to make a fortune, and the gods asked me to invest all the money to buy cultural relics in the stock market, and he secretly instructed me to buy stocks that would make a steady profit without losing money."
Qi Lu suddenly realized, and had to admit that this method was clever. He nodded and said, "Yes, it's easy to get a god to predict the direction of the stock market. I've also looked into your previous experience, and you did start out in the stock market and made a lot of money. Then you went to Shanxi to become a coal boss, and this is also due to his guidance."
"Yes, I also made a lot of money. With this abundant funds, I returned to my hometown with honor and became the most famous person in the upper class of the city. ”
"And what is your second wish?"
"Although I returned to the city, I did not give up the coal mine in Shanxi, but I neglected to take care of it, and something happened in the end."
Qi Lu suddenly understood, and he said to Lin Bo: "You are talking about the mining disaster at the beginning of this century, which killed dozens of people."
"Yes." Limpo did not deny it. "When I heard my subordinates call me in the middle of the night to tell me the bad news, I panicked, and then I asked the gods for help, and he settled the matter for me."
"So that's the case, no wonder the local officials hid the truth and let you escape the law." Qi Lu asked again: "Then what is your third wish?"
"I haven't said my third wish yet, because I want to leave some way back for myself."
"Do you think you still have a chance to fulfill your third wish" Qi Lu looked at him coldly and smoked a cigarette.
"I don't think so." A cold glint flashed in Lin Bo's eyes, and he stood up, his hand already touching his arms.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, but Qi Lu breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Lin Bo again: "I still don't understand something, since the sword has been sold, why do you want to buy it again?"
"I don't want that, I want to have nightmares when I see it." Limpo's hand was stretched back from his bosom.
"What's the reason for that?"
"It's the gods who need it. A few years ago, he suddenly appeared and asked me to do him a favor, and I thought it was a difficult task, but I thought it was to regain the sword. He promised me that he would find the sword and give me one more wish. ”
"He's so generous." Qi Lu asked: "Why does he want this sword again, isn't he afraid that he will be sealed in it again if he touches the sword again?"
"You're on point, and it's because he has a concern that he is in a hurry to get the sword." Lin Bo smiled lightly and said, "The gods want to completely destroy this sword so that they have no worries. ”
"Hey" Qi Lu sighed and said, "The brain is really getting more and more useless, I haven't figured out such a simple truth." ”
Lin Bo looked at his watch and said, "Your time is running out, do you have any last words to say to me?"
"You want to kill me"
"Yes. I've been in this house for more than twenty minutes, and if I delay any longer, those monks might come. ”
"Haha, you're really cautious in doing things" Qi Lu said with a smile: "How do you want to kill me, are you asking that god to solve me?"
"Nope." Lin Bo shook his head and said, "This kind of trivial matter will not bother him, your life is not worth wasting a wish on me." ”
"You think you can kill me alone, you should know my skills very well."
Lin Bo calmly poked his hand into his arms again, and when his hand reached out again, there was already an extra Type 92 pistol with a cylinder on the barrel.
Qi Lu couldn't laugh anymore, he said coldly: "Even the silencer is ready, it seems that you really want to kill me." ”
"I brought a gun here just in case, I didn't expect it to come in handy." Lin Bo also responded coldly: "Otherwise, what did I do with you so much nonsense just now, no matter how much the dead know about it, they won't reveal the secret." I warn you, if you don't say your last words, you won't have a chance. ”
"I can't say my last words, but I have something I want to tell you, you must be in prison by this time tomorrow."
"It's so arrogant when it's time to die," Lin Bo smiled and raised his gun to Qi Lu, preparing to shoot him.
But he had no chance to pull the trigger, because in the blink of an eye, a Buddhist bead suddenly shot out of the window, knocking out the gun in Lin Bo's hand.
With a "bang", the locked door was vigorously pushed open, followed by a group of people outside.
Lin Bo looked back in surprise with his triangular eyes, and when he saw the person in charge, he couldn't help but be stunned, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Big brother"
Yes, the one at the forefront is Master Wutong. I saw that his eyes were slightly drooping, and a line of tears had already flowed down his face.
"Second brother, stop it." Master Wutong's words are full of infinite sadness.
