The night was slowly lit by the white of the east, and the sky was already slightly bright. Genius remembered for a second that the door at the end of the first corridor that had been closed for most of the night finally opened, and Liang Jingmo slowly walked out with heavy steps. The morning sun slanted on his face, but it reflected the tired look between his eyebrows.

"These words have been talked about for a long time." A voice sounded abruptly behind him.

The original hallway was empty, and there could be no one else in the room he had just walked out of, and the person who spoke seemed to appear in the empty space behind him out of thin air, and his skills were unbelievably fast. However, Liang Jingmo was not the slightest surprise at this. He just lazily turned his head and glanced at the speaker, and then shook his head helplessly, "Be reasonable, this account can't be counted on my head, but it is your mother who has to tell me a story." ”

"Take it as it is." The visitor nodded.

The two of them looked away at the slightest contact in the air, and they each smiled politely on their faces. Their minds raced to guess each other's situation, one wondering how much the other had heard from his wife that night, and the other wondering if the other could hear the conversation outside the door.

Such thoughts were only fleeting, and these doubts were not enough to shake the alliance between the two sides. Liang Jingmo smiled, and said with a straight face, "My lord, get down to business—what's the answer over there?" ”

As he said, this ghostly master is the latest head of the Nangong family, Nangong Wang. Before nightfall, he set off for Bai Su's location to negotiate a plan with the other party on behalf of the combined forces here. This kind of thing of going deep into the enemy line is certainly dangerous, but he is the only one among the people who can enter and exit the enemy line freely, so this extremely dangerous task is also for him.

At this time, since Nangong Wang was able to return here intact, at least it showed that he had not encountered much danger along the way. So he skipped the rest of the questions and went straight to the point.

"It's the same as you guessed, I readily agreed as soon as I finished speaking, and I didn't even mean to talk about some conditions." Nangong Wang smiled, "The other party is also impatient, the existence of the Jiang brothers and sisters is like a fish in the throat, limiting the upper limit of his power through the prestige of the royal family, while your side will only get stronger and stronger, and it will become more and more difficult to deal with day by day." If I were him, I would also like to do it when there is still a significant gap in strength between the two sides, and sweep away the trouble at once. ”

"You say, 'When there is still a clear gap in strength?'" Liang Jingmo said, "I thought that after cooperating with Jiang Liang, the two sides were at least equal on the cards." The strategists and the royal family are considered to be one by one, but there is no such strong reinforcement as the Nangong family over there. ”

"I'll take the last sentence as a compliment." Nangong Wang said, "I originally thought it would be like this, but when I actually saw Bai Su, I found that he was very calm, and he still had any spare strength at all, maybe he was hiding a back hand that was enough to make a final decision at a critical moment...... But there's no point in talking about that now. ”

He smiled lightly, "Things have turned out as you would like, there's nothing to find fault with." The time is set at five o'clock this afternoon, and the location is still the same hotel where the last time the war was held, and I will deal with the problem of the entourage, and the rest is only for you to face to face to divide the winner. No matter what hole cards the opponent is hiding, it's your job to debunk them and kill him. ”

He looked Liang Jingmo up and down, and frowned again, "However, it looks like you're not in too good shape." ”

"It's all thanks to your mother, who loves storytelling, and the original plan to catch up on sleep has been saved."

Liang Jingmo smiled bitterly. Without Nangong Wang's reminder, he also knew that he was in a poor state, and this was not just because of lack of sleep.

Nangong Wanghu glanced at him suspiciously, shook his head and turned to leave.

After watching the other party's back disappear on the other side of the corridor, Liang Jingmo took a step forward and walked to his room. This time he had only taken a dozen steps before he stopped abruptly, and then looked wryly at the man who had suddenly appeared at the corner of the road.

"Do you hosts like to play this kind of trick that pops up?" Liang Jingmo patted his chest and said helplessly, "Okay, I admit I was scared." Are you satisfied? ”

"I didn't mean to scare you, I've been standing here waiting for you for a long time." The visitor shrugged.

"Then why are you here, 'Abyss' host?"

Facing Liang Jingmo's vigilant gaze, "Abyss" Xu Wen still looked indifferent. "I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to come and see you." He said, "I'm done, I'm leaving." ”

He turned around and swung his arms leisurely, but Liang Jingmo's voice came from behind him, "Wait." ”

The latter looked coldly at his back, "So, what do you see?" ”

"Of course, it's the part you don't want Nangong Wang to know." Xu Wen turned around, "What do you think Mrs. Nangong told you Nangong Wang may not know, but whether he knows it or not, he has to look at your reaction to determine how big the impact is." From that point of view, you've covered your emotions well. Although he saw that you were down, he also judged that this emotion was not enough to affect the overall situation, so he chose to stay on your boat. ”

"It's as if you know what Mrs. Nangong said." Liang Jingmo sneered. However, seeing Xu Wen's expression, his smile gradually froze.

"Of course I do."

Xu Wen was also laughing, "The incident ten years ago was not glorious from the host's point of view, and it has been covered up because of someone's needs, but it still left traces after all." Although the description of this incident in the file is vague, as long as I know the main characters and take the seats one by one, even an outsider like me can roughly piece together the situation at that time. ”

The fuse of the incident was the kidnapping of the baby son of Xiang Yun, then the head of the criminal police brigade of the Tianjing City Police Department. As a master detective, she quickly found clues, and tracked the kidnappers all the way into the territory of Xifeng, and then clashed head-on with the host. There is also a mysterious woman with the pseudonym 'Shura Girl' who is accompanied by her, she is extraordinary, and she is ruthless, and now it seems that she is Mrs. Nangong. ”

Both of them are heroines among women, and they will not back down even in the face of many elite hosts. According to the records, it was Huang Lao who personally ordered the kidnapping of Xiang Nanxing, who was still a child, and his real goal was to lure out the missing Meng Chuanbai, but he didn't want to attract two tricky evil stars for Xifeng. In order to solve the problem as soon as possible with the minimum casualties, Huang Lao personally went into battle and made a bet with Xiang Yun by risking his life, and used the traditional duel form of Xifeng to divide the winner and loser. Xiang Yun took on the challenge and was ultimately defeated. Although none of the records have preserved the duel at the time, and the few people who were present did not mention it, the scattered rumors that flowed out afterwards suggest that it should be a close match. Xiang Yun, who was still not left behind in the face of the 'first place' at that time, although he lost, he won the respect of others present. ”

It's just that Xiang Yun's defeat also means the death of her and Xiang Nanxing. I think she was aware of this at that time, but Meng Chuanbai, who had just arrived at the scene at this time, couldn't accept this result. ”

"Of course the teacher can't accept ......," Liang Jingmo muttered.

Meng Chuanbai was a step late after all, and when he arrived, everything was a foregone conclusion. Although he was nominally the 'second', he was actually the strongest host at that time, and Huang Lao was not in full condition, so he had the ability to tear up the gambling contract and break through with his wife and children. It's just the long-established notions that prevent him from taking this step and make him hesitate. Xiang Yun saw his ambivalent feelings, so he committed suicide by following the gambling contract, but entrusted his son to him. Xu Wen paused, "Of course, this part is my guess, how to ask Mrs. Nangong who was present at the time how to tell the truth, but I guess the version she told you is almost like this." ”

Seeing Liang Jingmo's reaction, he sighed, "Sure enough." ”

"There are two laws in the world, and no matter how strong a person is, he can't escape from this world." He sighed, "Xiang Yun is worthy of being a strange woman who made a quick decision. She used her life to eliminate Meng Chuanbai's hidden worries, and used this guilt to drive him to do anything to save his son, and everything fell into place. It's just that she underestimated the depth of Meng Chuanbai's affection for her. After her death, Meng Chuanbai not only immediately snatched back his son from the other party, but also directly challenged Huang Lao and the hosts present for the first time. This is clearly an impulsive revenge in the face of extreme anger, reckless of the consequences, and at best a lose-lose outcome - no, it should be said, this is the ending he wants. ”

But this ending is something that Huang Lao can't bear. There is no need to worry about his own death, but if the war really started at that time, Xifeng's excellent host would probably have been out of gear for several years. Xu Wen shook his head, "I don't know what Huang Lao did at that time, threatened?" Persuade? Maybe he even did something that didn't care about his image by begging for the master-apprentice relationship. In short, in the end, Meng Chuanbai was finally willing to give in and postpone the battle until ten years later. After that, Huang Lao gradually promoted and trained newcomers, and he slowly retired from the throne of 'first', giving newcomers the opportunity to exercise. It's all about fighting this formidable foe he's cultivated with his own hands. ”

"It's just that Huang Lao made the same mistake as you, and he didn't understand this until the moment when his disciple died." Xu Wen sighed, "You all think that Meng Chuanbai wants to take revenge on Xifeng because of his wife's death, and the target of revenge may be people, it may be the game system, or even the system that Xifeng is inconsistent within." But in fact, he hates himself the most powerless, Meng Chuanbai's final ending has been written at that time, and the remaining days are just a fork in the road to the ending......"

"That's enough."

Liang Jingmo interrupted Xu Wen's next words with a blushing face. He took a deep breath and calmed down the churning again.

"Even if I knew, now is not the time to think about it." "The battle has begun, and everything can only move forward," he said. It's not my business alone, even for the sake of my fellow thieves, I have to win. ”

"What about you, Mr. Xu?" He asked, "I remember you said you'd stay, didn't you?" ”

"Mr. Liang." Xu Wen smiled and said, "Do you think you still have the treasure I want on this ship?" ”

Liang Jingmo looked at him deeply. This time, he no longer shied away from the other party's penetrating gaze, but looked at him directly, as if he wanted to find the other party's true thoughts from the abyss-like pupils. He remembered that Xu Wen once said that it didn't matter who won and who lost in this troubled world, he just wanted to see the most exciting showdown.

When you think about it, the answer is coming.

"That's right." Liang Jingmo smiled bitterly.
