Chapter 51: Fighting in the Mansion
It's dawn.
The fat powder and light floating in the building seemed to dissipate between the sky and water little by little with the fog that dissipated in the morning. The promenade, which was supposed to be very lively, was empty and silent. Murong Yuhua and Gu San stood in front of the door, and Han Wuye's group of black-clothed subordinates opened the heavy door for them.
Inside the door, the dust in the air floated up and down in the sunlight, and everyone stood silently, waiting for the two men covered in gunpowder and blood to step onto the bluestone slab of the patio. The whole building is five floors high, and each floor originally had a livelihood on each floor, but today there is no one on the corridor, and even the group of people who looked lively at the beginning have dispersed.
They walked forward step by step, and from the back hall of the patio, suddenly a little girl called out, "Uncle, aunt!" ”
Xiao Sui'er ran out from behind the door coldly and crashed into Gu San's arms. The same thugs in black coats who brought her downstairs were brought down. Gu San stretched out his hand to pick up Xiao Sui'er, and suddenly there were two applause in the empty building. They followed the sound and looked upwards - it was Han Wuye who applauded just now.
"Mr. Murong Xiao fought a really beautiful battle last night. You also have the ability to bring so many people together in Qingping County. Han Wuye sat on a Taishi chair upstairs, looking at the three people in the patio with a smile, and he sat upright with a leisurely appearance as if he was waiting for the big show to start. Just look at a coffee table beside him, holding a long cigarette in his hand, and squinting a pair of mouse eyes to look down.
Murong Yuhua had calmed down on the way back, and stepped forward to greet him, "Fifth Master Han." ”
The fifth master knocked the cigarette in his hand, half of his face fell in the sun, and half of his face was hidden in the shadows of the corridor. When Han Wuye spoke, his throat seemed to be pinched, and it always seemed extremely harsh and sharp.
"Someone told me that the path I've walked all my life has been walking on thin ice. If you want to go to the other side, you can't walk on two feet. You have to kneel and crawl all the way through. ”
As he said this, his thin lips pursed, smacking his lips, and taking in a puff of his cigarette. The white mist ethereated between his yellow teeth, and he was not in a hurry or slow.
"But you are amazing, Murong, I, Han, have seen so many people in this building, only you, you are not willing to be an ant, not only are you unwilling to be an ant, but you also dare to stand up and help everyone find a way without kneeling."
As he spoke, he slowly spit out the cigarette in his mouth, stood up, put one hand behind his back, and looked down at Murong Yuhua's eyes.
"You pointed out this path, we thank you, we all want to see how far you can go on this road."
Murong Yuhua didn't feel excited or happy about what he said, he had just seen those who died because of him, those who died because of his wrong decision" The fifth master praised falsely. Many of the things I've done now seem to be problematic. I can't even say that this path is the right path. ”
"No, it's the right way. Mr. Murong Xiao is a person who has the heart to open peace for all generations. It's the one who does great things. How can you be so self-indulgent? Han Wuye said, but his hand suddenly waved slightly. Murong Yuhua was still standing in the center and looking up at her, but Gu San was holding Xiao Sui'er and noticed that the group of thugs around him were slowly withdrawing from the patio.
I heard Han Wuye speak, "I admire you, Mr. Murong." But no matter how much I admire you, I am still a businessman after all, and how cunning, treacherous, and greedy a businessman is. ”
When Murong Yuhua heard this, he also realized the strange atmosphere in the building, "Fifth Master, you-"
"This path of yours, I'm going to go. I will keep your gold. When Han Wuye said this, he finally opened his eyes that had always been smiling, revealing a bit of ruthlessness, he put the cigarette back, raised his hand, and said loudly, "Li Dashao, please." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the places on all sides of the patio that should have set aside a path were put up one after another, and Gu San immediately rushed to the corridor on the left with Xiao Sui'er in his arms, and was about to raise his foot and kick it, but the gunshots rang out.
On the corridor on the second floor, the person who had killed Murong and his wife in the Mu family walked out of the house wearing a military uniform. After he stood still in front of the porch, the soldiers on both sides also raised their guns and pointed them at the people who were still in the patio.
That is Li Handong's eldest son, Li Shen. With a pair of evil eyes, he looked at his prey below, who obviously had nowhere to escape, "Murong Yuhua, I should have asked my father to give a chase and kill order a long time ago, you are just a dog, how dare you to argue with our Li family?" ”
When the gunshot rang out again, Gu San pulled Murong Yuhua over and rolled to the side with Xiao Sui'er in his arms. The bullet hit the water tank in the patio, and for a moment the smell of dampness spread. It's useless to hide like this. There are still more than a dozen people brought by the other party, and under such a dense pursuit of guns, even Gu San has no chance to shoot the enemy at all.
Xiao Sui'er shrunk in Gu San's arms, gritting her teeth and not saying a word of "afraid". Li Shen stood on a high place, looked at their hurried and embarrassed appearance, and laughed: "Zhou Hui'er, I really don't understand, why are you so anxious to kill my father and escape?" You have such a pretty face, as long as you are willing, join forces with me earlier, and I will not treat you badly if you help me except for this old guy. It's a pity that you took the worst path. ”
There are only four water tanks in the patio. No matter how Gu San and Murong Yuhua hid, they could no longer create superfluous defenses in the end. Seeing the debris flowing all over the ground, Gu San held the gun and stuffed Xiao Sui'er into Murong Yuhua's hand to shoot, but Murong Yuhua turned his back and pushed her and Xiao Sui'er behind him, and passed in the direction where the gunshot came from.
But the bullet that was supposed to fall on him did not appear.
Li Shen raised his hand, and the soldiers on both sides temporarily stopped attacking. He looked at the guy who rushed up with disgust, "Want to be a hero? Sacrifice for others? Do you think I'm going to make your dreams come true? Murong Yuhua, you deserve to die slowly little by little if you fall into my hands. I will break your legs first, let you run out of blood, peel off your skin, cut off your head, and put him at the gate of Qingping County to hang him for three days and three nights! ”
As he spoke, he raised his gun with a sinister smile, "Remember, you're an ant, you can't do anything, and you've killed everyone who wants to be on your side and help you." ”
Murong Yuhua looked at the muzzle of his gun, and his body always maintained his previous posture, blocking in front of Gu San and Xiao Sui'er. Death should have followed in the next second.
Shots rang out. Murong Yuhua still couldn't help but subconsciously closed his eyes. Of course, he clearly understood that in the face of real disaster and death, he had no power to parry.
But the pistol in Li Shen's hand did not have the slightest smoke, and with the sound of this gunshot, a little scarlet appeared in his eyebrows, Gu San immediately pulled out the gun to find the right time, and shot at the soldiers on the corridor on the second floor with both hands at the same time.
In the midst of this round of gunfire, Murong Yuhua looked at the young man of the Li family, who was still flying and arrogant with himself in the last second, leaning forward, and then fell out of the handrail of the corridor, falling headfirst to the ground.
It turned out that at the moment when he was about to shoot, the person who was originally following him fired first. That person obviously chose to betray his comrades after Gu San shot him, and stood on their side.
When the battle was over, the patio was littered with the bodies of those who had been killed and fallen. The blood of these people was mixed with the brains, blurring the original moss traces on the ground.
A man walked out from behind the door on the second floor, still holding a gun. He glanced at Gu San before disappearing behind the door.
Murong Yuhua's body suddenly seemed to have completely lost its support, and he knelt on the ground, he looked at the corpses all over the ground, and suddenly turned his head and vomited. He kept spitting the little residue in his stomach on the ground where the blood was spreading.
Gu San covered Xiao Sui'er's eyes, hugged her and walked forward over the corpse. She kicked open the door panel that originally blocked the way of life, and there was no one behind the door for a long time, and after the war began, Han Wuye withdrew all his people, leaving no one behind.
As he says, he is a shrewd businessman.
When she arrived at the house, Gu San also happened to look at the man in the yellow military uniform, she put down Xiao Sui'er, and looked him up and down with a bit of vigilance and familiarity.
As soon as Xiao Sui'er landed on the ground, she raised her head, and when she saw the man in military uniform, she immediately exclaimed, "I recognize you." ”
"Do you recognize him?" Gu San looked at her. Xiao Sui'er pointed at him and said, "On the day my father and aunt were killed, he helped me deceive people and didn't hand me over to that bad guy." ”
Gu San completely relieved himself this time. She handed Xiao Sui'er forward, "Zhu Li, please take care of her." ”
The young man with a little green face seemed to be slightly puzzled: "How do you know...... My name is Juri? ”
Gu San had already walked out at this time, and she waved her hand at him, leaving a sentence, "You will understand later." Then he returned to the corpse and found Murong Yuhua, who was still vomiting.
He almost vomited all his bile, his face was pale, and he looked very weak.
Gu San handed him a handkerchief: "Are you okay?" ”
Murong Yuhua tried not to look at those things on the ground, and nodded slightly, "What about Xiao Sui'er?" Did you see the soldier who shot him? Is it credible? ”
"He was the one who saved Xiao Sui'er before, that person? You're going to believe him. Gu San looked at his embarrassed appearance, let out a long sigh, and said with emotion, "Do you know, Murong, you always say very frankly, but in fact, you can't accept this. ”
"I ...... I'm just, maybe I'm just a little cold. ”
"You say you're used to violence and fighting, but you'll never be able to be bloody and violent. But what you're doing is called 'revolution,' and all revolutions are made up of bloodshed and sacrifice. Everything you see today will be with you in the days to come. You are kind, and this bloodshed and killing is bound to make all good people despair. ”
