"Three days later, prepare for the funeral. Everyone, let's go back and rest first! Jiujiu said. When the people heard this, they did not linger any longer, but carefully put away the three heads, and left with their wounded bodies, and all of a sudden, the courtyard was empty. Only the father and daughter of Ninety-Nine and Ninety remained.

"Blackie, come down." Jiujiu looked up at an inconspicuous poplar tree outside the courtyard, and in the dense foliage, he caught a glimpse of the black figure. Yang Bin spread his wings, flew down lightly, turned into a human form in mid-air, picked up the crutch that was thrown away by Jiujiu, and handed it over.

Jiujiu took the crutches, staggered to his feet, and said, "Take care of Ninety, and then come and see me." ”

"I'll take you back to your room!" Yang Bin leaned over and hugged the ninety who had lost his strength, and at this time, he noticed that ninety was so light, lying in his arms like cotton without weight, and it was precisely because of the lightness that he felt pity, for fear that the person in his arms would be blown away by the wind inadvertently. Thinking of this, Yang Bin subconsciously hugged him tighter, and the demonic power quietly operated in his body, making his body warm, hoping that this inconspicuous temperature would make Ninety feel better.

Back in the room, Yang Bin carefully put ninety on the bed and covered the quilt for her, "Sleep well, everything will be fine." ”

"You're lying." Ninety said coldly, the depths of his eyes losing color, leaving a gray patch.

Yang Bin was about to leave, but when he heard this, he stayed, sat on the floor next to the ninety bed, and asked, "Do you still want to be an assassin now?" I probably know why your father is reluctant to teach you how to assassinate. He should want you to live happily and safely forever, for an Assassin, being alive is the greatest gift the world has to offer. ”

Ninety sobbed, his nose was red, his eyes were already red and swollen, and his eyes were full of tears, making his eyes look a little blurry, "Of course you want to be an assassin!" I need to be stronger to protect everyone. In the future, all the tasks will be undertaken by me alone, so that my uncles and uncles can go to the elderly with peace of mind. They are old, and these things of fighting and killing are not suitable for them, and they should let me, a young man, come. I don't want to, I don't want to see anyone die anymore. Before, they were only wounded, and for the first time, for the first time, they came back with a corpse. I thought there would be such a day, but why did it come so quickly, why can't you wait for me? ”

Yang Bin wiped away the tears that kept falling from Ninety's face, "Okay, don't cry, it's useless to cry." You have to be strong, you still have someone to protect now, since you know that time waits for no one, then become strong as soon as possible. Tomorrow, still that place, I will spare no effort to teach you. But I don't want to see a little crying bag. ”

Ninety took a deep breath and closed his eyes, as if he had really calmed down. Seeing this, Yang Bin didn't bother anymore, got up and went to Jiujiu's room, when he was about to step across the threshold, he heard a sound of brushing from behind, and looked back in shock, only to see Jiu0 kicking off the quilt with red eyes, and flying out of the room without wearing shoes.

"Eh, what are you doing? Where are you going? Yang Bin hurriedly chased after him, he didn't guarantee that this little girl really came out of her sadness, and was going to go to the poplar forest to play a trick, once Ninety couldn't think of doing something stupid, he would not only be hated by Ninety-Nine for a lifetime, but he would also feel guilty for a lifetime.

Ninety flew into the sky and shouted, "Don't worry about it, I'll wait for you in the old place, talk to my father, and come to practice with me." You promised me that you would spare no effort to teach me, that I would become stronger, so strong that the world would be afraid, and that no one would be able to harm my family. ”

Yang Bin looked at the black-haired ninety in the sky, stunned for a while, until the figure of ninety gradually faded away, he came back to his senses, and hurriedly walked towards ninety-nine's room. On the way, the figure of ninety was like a nail chiseled into the heart, and it was hard to forget.

Jiujiu was lying on the bed, treating his wounds, his left hand was cut off, and even part of his shoulder was cut off, the fracture was not smooth, it looked like it had been torn off alive, and the pain was painful, Yang Bin just glanced at it, and his body couldn't help but start trembling.

"What the hell have you encountered?" Yang Bin is well aware of Jiujiu's ability, although in a head-to-head battle, Jiujiu may not be able to win himself, but if Jiujiu wants to kill himself, he has no confidence that he can survive under that strange and inexplicable blade. But this time, Jiujiu was so seriously injured, and even someone in the team died, Yang Bin felt a little afraid of the initiator.

Jiujiu dealt with the wound, his expression was calm, as calm as usual, as if he didn't notice the pain, "I encountered a little trouble." This time, I'm not there to kill, I'm there to save people. But you must know that assassins are best at killing people, and they generally don't do it to save people. So, this time I planted it. Those three of my brothers failed in their mission and were captured, and I gathered the other brothers who were out on a mission to come back and save people, and fell into the trap of the enemy. In the end, we can only bring back those three heads. ”

Yang Bin asked, "Why do you want to save it?" In general, the assassins were captured and should have committed suicide outright. Even if you don't commit suicide, you shouldn't go to the rescue. Assassins are ghosts that live in the shadows, what's the point of saving ghosts? ”

"According to you? If one day, I am caught, you will not come to save me? Jiujiu said with a smile.

"Of course I will save it, I'm not an assassin!" Yang Bin said.

Jiujiu was stunned, and after a while, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Yes, I almost forgot, you're not an assassin, you're a demon." ”

"Demon, what's wrong? Along the way, I didn't see you killing demons, they were all killing people, I don't think you have any hatred with demons, but the relationship is not bad! Right? Yang Bin also smiled.

Looking at Yang Bin's big white teeth that split his mouth, Jiujiu's smile froze, and inadvertently revealed a trace of bitterness, "Yes, since I was born, I have never killed a demon, and my hands are stained with human blood." I was born to kill. This is true of my entire family, male and female, young and old, from generation to generation. We should be the strangest family among the Elder. ”

"Why?" Listening to these words, Yang Bin always felt a little strange.

Jiujiu continued: "You should have lost some memories, I think when you remember, you should be able to understand what I said to some extent. But I can tell you right now that in this world, humans and demons are enemies, the kind of enemies that need to be separated between life and death. Demons eat people, people kill demons, this is the normal mode of getting along, not like you and me, talking in a friendly way here. If you were someone else, you would have died before your strength was restored. ”

Yang Bin was silent, and unconsciously, something loosened in his mind, and more and more things poured out from the depths of his mind, making him feel a headache, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, and let these things disperse from his mind, in exchange for a moment of peace, he wiped off the sweat oozing from his forehead, "Then Uncle Jiu, why do you still take me in." ”

"As I just said, I've never killed a demon, I've only killed people, and I've only been hunted down. Surprised, right? Actually, our family has been around for a long time. At that time, we worked hard for the imperial court, and secretly solved some courtiers who were ambitious or made the emperor unhappy, and with the change of the times, everything was being updated, but we, the ghosts living in the dark, were preserved intact, and even gradually formed a big family. Now, we are still working for the higher-ups in the Spiritual Dao Alliance, the number one organization in the Alien Spirit Realm today. Nowadays, democracy, freedom, and human rights are being preached everywhere, but there are still only a few people who really hold power. For the sake of power, they also need our hidden knives to get rid of their troubles. These heart troubles will not be demons, they can only be people. Because demons can kill openly, people can't, people can only die secretly. ”

"Speaking of which, demon, the death is relatively clear. I don't know, in the demon world, there is no such assassin. Yang Bin smiled, as if he was not interested in the statement that the shemales were not compatible.

Jiujiu redressed his wound and said, "Of course, there are many demons in the demon clan who are good at concealing assassinations, and they will also hunt demons in order to hunt for better food. The difference, though, is that they are active, and we, are passive. "In autumn, the weather is getting cooler, the wind is blowing slowly, drifting into Jiujiu's room, and after a while, the room becomes a little cold. Jiujiu, who was seriously injured, had no way to keep out the cold, so he could only pull the quilt with one hand to warm himself up. Seeing this, Yang Bin wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped by Jiujiu.

"Didn't you understand me?" Jiujiu said.

Yang Bin smiled: "I understand." You want me to go, because I'm a demon. If you don't kill me, it should be the greatest gift to me. As you said, in this world, shemales are not separated, and you will have to live and die when you meet, but I promised ninety that I would teach her to practice. I can't go back on my word, or she'll be in trouble again with her temper. ”

"That's it?" Jiujiu was a little surprised, in fact, as early as when he brought Xiao Hei back, he had already regretted it a little, even if he hadn't dealt with demons and had been killing people all his life, it didn't mean that he didn't know how terrible the hatred between humans and demons was! In front of the demon, the enemy can also be a friend.

"By the way, Ninety gave me a name, my name is Yang Bin, Uncle Nine, please give me a lot of advice. Of course, you can call me Hei if you want, and I like both of these names. However, I don't want to leave, I will stay secretly, you are ghosts in the dark, then I am the teacher of that little ghost in the ninety. Yang Bin smiled, bowed deeply to Jiujiu, and turned to leave.

Jiujiu leaned against the head of the bed, quietly watching his back as he left, without saying anything more, only secretly praying in his heart that nothing would happen. Thinking about it, sleepiness gradually came up, he curled up, lay down on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep, he was too tired.

In the poplar forest, the fallen leaves are fluttering, the wind shuttles between the fallen leaves, a figure steps on the fallen leaves, light and smart, waving his fist on the leaves, stretching his body, one move at a time, seemingly soft but actually deadly. Ninety was attacking tirelessly, and every time he swung his fist, there would be a sound of air explosion, and for a while, the sound of air explosion was like thunder. Yang Bin walked all the way, landed on a branch, and looked at the girl with a strong face.

"The breath must be steady, you can't seek speed alone, and the more important thing is to hit accurately! Every effort must be used where it should be used! Yang Bin fell silently, his toes touched the ground, sticking to the ground, and he approached behind ninety in an instant, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was about to grab ninety. Who would have thought, the cold wind lifted, and the ninety body twisted violently, and the foot that was originally kicked in front became a sweeping spear, slashing backwards.

Yang Bin slapped his palm to the ground, and dust and smoke flew. Ninety legs of wind swept by, and his eyes suddenly became clear, but Yang Bin's figure was gone. The temperature rose sharply, the surrounding trees spontaneously combusted, and the tongues of fire continued to jump upward, surging down the fallen leaves on the ground to Ninety, and in the blink of an eye, Ninety was already in a sea of fire.

Ninety's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly jumped high, condensed his body, and flew into the air, wanting to rush to the top of the poplar forest and escape from this sea of fire. Just now there was an upward trend, and one by one "Yang Bin" suddenly appeared in the sea of fire, each with a strong momentum, pounced on the ninety, and the compelling heat pressed the ninety down and smashed it on the ground. The sea of fire engulfed her in an instant, and she screamed miserably, took a deep breath, and unexpectedly evacuated the air within the range of the sea of fire. In the vacuum, the flames gradually extinguished, and Yang Bin's true figure slowly appeared in the sea of fire.

"It's a lot of progress, should I give you some rewards?" Yang Bin smiled, flicked his fingers, and an invisible strong wind flew out from between them and hit Jiuten. With a bang, the whole person flew out a few meters upside down, sinking into the dirt, covered in black smoke.

Ninety turned over and sat up, panting, her delicate pretty face was covered with black ash, she wiped her face fiercely and spat on it, "Reward? Okay, let's get to the point! As he spoke, ninety palms slapped the ground, and the whole person quickly retreated and disappeared into the wind. The poplar grove was caught in a storm, the rustle of leaves was incessant, the fallen leaves were flying all over the sky, and the whole poplar grove was noisy.

Yang Bin smiled, the wind blowing his long hair and clothes, constantly patting his body, he stood calmly, without the slightest intention of moving. He was waiting, waiting for the man who was hiding in the wind, waiting for the moment of the shot, but the time was passing, and the wind was still howling. Yang Bin's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, this time was a bit beyond his expectations, with the strength of ninety, could he maintain the wind for so long?

Of course not!

Yang Bin quickly gave the answer, he moved, he took a step, knocked away the wind, and the air around him suddenly became quiet, but before he could make the next move, the wind suddenly quieted, and then shrank towards him suddenly. Yang Bin's body stiffened, and the air around him squeezed him, making him unable to move, although it was only a short moment, the coolness in his throat and the cut of his collar still made a drop of sweat slip off his face.

"Stinky girl, it's progressing a little fast!" Yang Bin grabbed Ninety's hand, and the heat repeatedly floated out of his palm. Ninety was expressionless, his palm was only a finger's distance from Yang Bin's throat, and the condensed qi was only a little bit close to leaving a scar on the dark skin, but it was almost a little bit after all.

"Let's take a break!" Sensing the tired look on Ninety's face that could not be concealed, Yang Bin smiled helplessly, raised his hand and knocked her on the back of the head, making her fall into a deep sleep, and then jumped on the top of the tree with her in his arms, throwing her into a black fire that he had lit in the void.

……

The night quietly spread across the sky, and in the earthly world, this alien space also ushered in a quiet night. And in the only house in the poplar forest, in the courtyard of the big mansion, there is a house lit with candles, and the transparent window screen reflects the dark shadows inside.

Jiujiu sat on the bed, leaning against the head of the bed, his right arm was still empty, only one sleeve was hanging down. Inside the house, there were many people sitting, all of whom had survived this mission, all of them dragging their injured bodies and looking tired at the moment.

"Elder, the demon ...... You can't stay! With a faint candle flame, an old face flickered, and he stood up slightly, his voice low and cold, like the piercing chill emitted when the 10,000-year-old ice had just been dug out.

The rest of the people didn't speak, but they all bent down to Jiujiu, which was a request, which meant that they agreed with what the old man said. In fact, there is no reason for them to disagree, the shemales are not separated, this is a thousand-year-old inheritance, and it has long been deeply engraved in their hearts, even if the enemies they have encountered since they were born have always been humans.

Jiujiu said in a deep voice: "You guys, do you want to change? ”

Everyone was stunned, this rhetorical question seemed to have nothing to do with their request, but after thinking about it carefully, they were so frightened that they sweated and knelt directly on the ground, not daring to come out, only the old man was still straight. "Elder! Do you know what you're talking about? What's the difference between this and sending to death? We are assassins, living all our lives to live, and now we are allowed to die? ”

Jiujiu said: "You are wrong, not for a lifetime, but for several lifetimes, we all live just to live." It has never changed, we are a big family, and in other places, perhaps we have now developed into a famous family, not an assassin who can only hide in the dark! We can't change our lives, but we can, we can change the next generation, change ninety. ”

The crowd was silent, but their eyes lit up unconsciously, and a light flickered in the depths of their pupils, and that light was hope. Ninety-nine continued: "I believe in Xiao Hei, he said, we are ghosts, then he is the guardian of Ninety, this little ghost. He's strong, so strong that I'm no match for me. If we go together, it may be difficult to keep him, such a person has the ability to protect ninety. As long as Ninety survives, it's up to her to start the next generation anew, and let the fate of the Assassins end with us! Even if Ninety wants to be an Assassin, I think she wants to be a free Assassin and not a puppet like us. ”

"Elder, why can we trust him? He's a demon, and a demon has always been ......," the old man said, his pupils trembling, the light was still strong, but he forcibly suppressed it, preventing him from eroding his calmness.

Bang bang bang!

A soft knock came through the door, and a familiar silhouette outside the door was reflected on the window screen. Everyone's faces changed slightly, especially the old man, his body had become illusory, and he was ready to do it. Jiujiu waved his hand, signaling that everyone didn't need to be nervous, and he called softly, "Come in!" ”

Yang Bin pushed the door in, indifferently looking at the people kneeling on the ground in front of him, as well as the old man with an illusory body, only when his gaze fell on Jiujiu, there was a trace of softness, "Of course you have to believe me, because if I want you to die, you will have already been buried in the fire just now." At your peak, you may not be a threat to me, let alone now? Ninety-nine saved me, I like him very much, and likewise, I like ninety. That's what you humans say, love what and what! I don't care what you're going to do, I'm just going to protect ninety, and it doesn't matter to me whether you believe it or not. However, I hope you don't disturb my relationship with Ninety, or I'll be very unhappy. ”

After speaking, Yang Bin turned into wisps of fire and dissipated, and at the same time, the candle flame in the house was blown out.

Jiujiu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why do I think my daughter was snatched away like this?" ”

The crowd was silent, not knowing what to say.

"You also heard that people don't care if we believe it or not, so we don't have a choice. Either or not, he's going to stay here, and in fact we can't get rid of it at all. However, if I believe it, Ninety will survive, and I think it will live well. Jiujiu said with a smile.

"Then it's the other way around!"
