Chapter Seventy-Five: The Truth Is Cruel
When people are dying, their hearts are full of fear, however, at this time, the dragon king's heart is calm, without the slightest fear.
He closed his eyes and quickly reviewed his life in his head.
At the age of eighteen, he wandered the rivers and lakes, practiced martial arts, climbed and rolled, and finally became the twelfth master of the Tiger List and the king of the underground world in Jiangzhou.
This life is enough to be described by two words: brilliant.
What makes the Dragon King most proud is that although he is the boss of the underground forces in Jiangzhou, he has never killed innocents indiscriminately, let alone killed a single person.
Up, worthy of the sky, down, worthy of brothers.
In this life, a clear conscience.
Die without regrets!
At this time, the edge of the dagger had already reached his throat, and the dragon king could feel that as long as the dagger was sent one more inch, he would officially leave this world.
Die, no one has died since ancient times.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a loud shout sounded, followed by a strong wind breaking through the air, and there was a crisp sound of "ding" in my ears.
The dragon king suddenly opened his eyes, only to see the dagger in the young man's hand being knocked away, and he hurriedly turned his head to look at the door, and then his face changed greatly.
"Ye Qiu, what are you doing? Get out of here. ”
The dragon king shouted, he was a dying person, and he didn't want to involve Ye Qiu before he died.
"I'm here to save you." Ye Qiu glanced at it and saw that the Dragon King was fine, and then his eyes fell on Cao Yuan, who was dressed in green clothes, and asked, "You are nine thousand years old?" ”
"Exactly." Cao Yuan smiled: "It's really a place in life where we don't meet, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon." ”
The Dragon King looked at Ye Qiu in amazement: "You have met with Nine Thousand Years Old?" ”
"I met him in the hospital in the morning, but at that time, I didn't know he was 9,000 years old." Ye Qiu then said to Cao Yuan, "Can you spare the Dragon King's life?" ”
"Why did you save him?" Cao Yuan asked rhetorically.
"Because the Dragon King has been so gracious to me."
"When you say great grace, do you mean that he stood up for you at the Crystal Palace last night? Or do you mean, Zhao Yun helped you bury Guo Shaocong alive? ”
Rumble!
Ye Qiu's heart shook wildly.
What happened in the Crystal Palace last night is not difficult to check, but how did the nine thousand years old know about Guo Shaocong?
Except for him and Zhao Yun, as well as a few of Zhao Yun's subordinates, no one else was present that day, Ye Qiu believed that Zhao Yun and they would definitely not leak it, where did they find out about the nine thousand years old?
For a while, a cold sweat broke out on Ye Qiu's back.
"I guess you're thinking, how do I know, right?" Cao Yuan smiled: "In this world, as long as I want to check, there is nothing I can't check." ”
Ye Qiu stabilized his mind and asked straight to the point, "How can you let go of the Dragon King?" ”
Cao Yuan shook his head and said, "The Dragon King will die." ”
"Why?"
"Last night, Emperor Xiao Qing sent a message on my behalf, but the Dragon King teamed up with you and Lin Jing to injure him and kill his slaves, which is also a crime. When I first came to Jiangzhou, I was assassinated, and several of my men died, which shows how chaotic Jiangzhou is. As the boss of the underground forces in Jiangzhou, the Dragon King managed Jiangzhou like this, and his two sins were two. Therefore, nirvana. ”
Ye Qiu was a little angry in his heart and said, "Neither of these two things should be blamed on the Dragon King's head. ”
"Oh?" Cao Yuan was a little curious: "Let's talk about it." ”
Ye Qiu said: "Emperor Xiao Qing is arrogant and domineering, and he does whatever he wants, but you let such a person help you pass on the word, I think you don't know people and use people inappropriately." ”
"At the banquet, it was Emperor Xiao Qing who was the first to kill and the first to kill us, which was clear to everyone who attended the banquet, and we were just passively defending. Killing his slaves and cutting off his legs is nothing but justified defence. ”
"Secondly, you came to Jiangzhou, the Dragon King didn't know, and you didn't let the Dragon King send someone to protect you, the assassination is completely your personal matter, how can you blame the Dragon King?"
"As the master of the Dragon Gate, there are more people in the world who want to kill you, and you should know this best. If you took strict precautions last night, then how could someone who wanted to kill you have a chance to take advantage of it? ”
"As for the men you died, they died to protect you, if it weren't for you, then they wouldn't have died, speaking of which, you hurt them......"
"Presumptuous!" Before Ye Qiu could finish speaking, a young man shouted loudly.
Ye Qiu glanced at it and found that the young man who scolded him was the guy who was holding the dagger before, and scolded at the moment: "I talk to your master, and you dare to intervene as a dog?" ”
"You-"
"You what you! To be a dog is to have the consciousness of being a dog! ”
"Look for death!" The young man was furious and smashed Ye Qiu with a punch.
Ye Qiu stood still and didn't move, only when the young man's fist was only half a meter away from him, he threw a punch.
"Bang!"
The two fists collided together, making a muffled sound, and then, Ye Qiu and the young man took five steps back at the same time.
"Huh?"
Both of them let out a surprise at the same time, both a little surprised by each other's strength.
"No wonder it's so arrogant, it turns out that there will be a little three-legged cat kung fu, come again!"
Rumble!
The young man slammed into him with another punch.
Ye Qiu raised his fist to meet the attack.
"Bang!"
The second punch collided.
This time, there was no muffled sound like the first punch, and the bodies of the two barely moved, and the fists only touched slightly, and they immediately separated, and then each took three steps back.
"You punched me twice, and then, it's time for me to attack you."
Ye Qiu's voice fell, and he rushed out quickly, his body was like a bolt of lightning, and he appeared in front of the young man in an instant.
"Boom!"
The fists of the two collided violently again.
Rub!
Rub!
Rub!
The young man's body kept retreating, and the leather shoes rubbed against the ground to make a "zizi" sound, and he took more than a dozen steps back to stabilize his figure.
The young man looked at Ye Qiu in shock.
At the same time, the other two youths behind Cao Yuan stood up and were also ready to make a move.
Ye Qiu was not afraid, and sneered: "It turns out that Longmen's style of acting is to bully more and less, and I can be regarded as having a long understanding today. ”
"Stop!" Cao Yuan stopped the two young men, and then exuded a thick pressure from the superior, staring at Ye Qiu.
At that moment, Ye Qiu was chilled all over, and he felt like falling into an ice cellar.
Cao Yuan said in a deep voice: "If someone else talks to me like you, then I am already a dead corpse, but I remember that you saved Han Long's life, I don't care about you today." ”
"You want to save the Dragon King, don't you? Okay, I can let him go, but you have to promise me one condition. ”
"On what terms?" Ye Qiu asked urgently.
"Find the killer who killed me last night."
"Good!" Ye Qiu agreed without hesitation.
"Don't promise so quickly, I haven't finished my words yet." Cao Yuan continued: "I only give you three days, if you find the murderer within three days, I will not bother with the Dragon King." If you can't find the murderer, after three days, I will not only take the head of the dragon king, but also cut off one of your arms, do you still have to agree? ”
"I promise!"
As long as he can save the Dragon King's life, even if he breaks Ye Qiu's arm now, he will agree.
"Very well, I hope you don't let me down." After Cao Yuan finished speaking, he left the Dragon King's villa with the three young men.
