111. Countering violence with violence
Gu Xi naturally didn't know what I was thinking at this time, and when he saw that I was silent, he turned his eyes away. But I didn't expect that in the next moment, he suddenly kicked away the debris, and saw that the tables, chairs, and books were all poured towards the old headmaster, some of them knocked on his head, and some of them pressed directly on his back, and in a few strokes he was turned to the ground, and even his glasses were broken. At this time, he no longer had the strength and self-satisfaction he had before, and he was only full of embarrassment.
After that, a path opened out of the pile of debris, and I saw the uncle of the grain and oil store still lying on the ground, but... With my keen sense of patterned scenes, I'm sure he's been moved.
When Gu Xi slowly walked out from within, my eyes fell on his wrist, and I actually found that the thin thread wrapped around the old principal's neck was actually connected to his golden silk nanmu bracelet. If you squint and look closely, you will be even more surprised, the thin thread seems to be the string of a bracelet, and it is as thin as a hair, shining in the sun.
I couldn't help but take a closer look at the entanglement around the old principal's neck, and I just thought it was a blood stain, but in fact, the thin thread had cut into the skin layer, which was equivalent to being embedded in it. I don't know why, after this, the blood has not ooped out, but there is only a blood mark.
I've heard that don't underestimate a thread, it can cut people's throats when it's sharp. Doesn't this scene in front of us confirm this fact?
It never occurred to him that the bracelet he was wearing would be a weapon when necessary.
Father Xie also saw the clues, and looked at the old man dying with an anxious face: "You let go of him." ”
Gu Xi asked rhetorically: "Why?" Father Xie was stunned and turned his head to look at me, his pupils contracted and hesitated, but he heard Gu Xi's cold voice coming: "Dare to touch her cold hair again, I promise you that your fate will be worse than this old thing." ”
Although he was giving orders and threatening me, even I, myself, couldn't help but shudder when I heard it. In fact, as soon as he appeared, his aura had already overwhelmed everything, not to mention that Father Xie was jealous, even if he didn't care about the old principal's life or death, it was impossible to do anything again.
"Tian Yuan, put down the knife, the general trend is gone." The old headmaster said angrily.
With a bang, the dagger in Father Xie's hand fell to the ground, and he squatted down as if he had been drained of all his strength, looking at the old man on the ground sadly, "Dad, our retribution is coming." ”
I was shocked, although the two of them did not shy away from revealing their identities and had the same surname Xie, I never thought about this relationship. It's not because they don't look alike, but there is no father-son interaction between the two at all, it's more like a subordinate relationship.
The old headmaster looked empty, and said slowly, word by word: "I never believe in retribution, I was, and I am now, otherwise I would have been a dead man if I were to be retributed." Today is just a win or a defeat, and the loss is underestimating you. ”
The corners of Gu Xi's mouth rose, but his eyes were cold, and he said, "Becoming a king or defeating a king?" Do you deserve it too? ”
I sighed lightly in my heart, even I wanted to ask this, a sanctimonious elder, playing intrigues behind his back, and daring to use himself and Gu Xi to become a king and a loser. However, seeing that there was cruelty in Gu Xi's eyes, and that thin line seemed to be tightening, I hurriedly stopped him: "Don't kill him!" ”
Gu Xi turned his eyes, and didn't care about my Xiao Killing aura, he only asked, "If they want to kill you, do you plan to let him go?" ”
I was silent for a moment, "I can't bite back if I am bitten by a mad dog, it is a human life." Gu Xi, it's not worth it to stain blood for him. And, "after a pause, his eyes fixed on the old man on the ground," he said he called Xie Zhiyuan. ”
In terms of emotion, reason, and law, Gu Xi cannot use violence to counter violence.
Gu Xi smiled, "For your first sentence and the last reason." After speaking, he didn't see how it was collected, but as soon as he raised his hand, the filament was pulled out of the old man's neck. He didn't retract the long filament back into the bracelet, but slowly took out a piece of white gauze from his pocket and gently wiped it along the filament.
After rubbing it again, I saw that there was a blood stain on the white gauze, and the filament was even brighter when it was illuminated.
Gu Xi frowned, threw the gauze on the ground, and took out another piece and wiped it again. I thought to myself, that gauze can't be left over from the wound on my throat that he kept in his pocket all the time?
As soon as my mind was in a trance, I felt a flash in front of my eyes, and something was thrown at me. When I fixed my eyes, I instinctively reached out to pick it up, and the golden silk nanmu bracelet with body temperature rested in my palm, and I looked at him suspiciously. I saw that he waved his hand disappreciably and said, "It's dirty, go back and help me disinfect it with alcohol, and put you there first." ”
I was stunned, and looked down at the bracelet again, which was very strange, and the filament that had just been stretched out was gone, and it looked like an ordinary bracelet. Of course, it's ordinary because it's just a bracelet, not a weapon that can be used to kill people. If it is really in terms of its value, this round and huge golden silk nanmu beads, and still shining with a ghostly color, I am afraid that it will be difficult to buy a thousand gold.
Silently retracted it into his pocket, and then looked over there, Gu Xi had already pulled a chair and sat down, and patted the position next to him and said to me: "Come and sit, the two old guys can't turn the sky over." ”
When I walked up to him, I was pulled and sat down next to him, and I felt that my gaze drifting lightly at the back of my head. The heart was inexplicably sudden, and he subconsciously grabbed his sleeve, the last time I was slapped by the fake police on the train, he turned around and asked Tong Ying to pay for the person's hand; This will see me have a bag in the back of my head, and I am afraid that if he doesn't hold back his perverse temper, he will swing his chair and smash it at the two of them.
His gaze fell on my hand, his long hanging eyelashes fanning down slightly, and then turning back to blank when he lifted it again.
I was secretly relieved that this time he had restrained his temper.
"Let's talk about Xie Zhiyuan first." Gu Xi opened his mouth and ordered.
Father Xie glanced at this side in fear, and asked in a squeaky manner: "Can you let me stop the bleeding for my father first?" ”
"Stop the bleeding? The blade enters the skin by two cents, just enough to cut the carotid artery, and no matter what method you use, it will bleed. You just say it slowly, and you die if you flow it. ”
"You ......"
I interrupted him: "You tell me about Xie Zhiyuan, and I will naturally save him for you." "Actually, I have observed, although the blade of the old man's neck began to drench in blood beads after being pulled out by Gu Xi, the amount of bleeding was not large, and the carotid artery should not be cut. For a while, the old man's life was worry-free, but he couldn't let their father and son get their way, otherwise it would be difficult to ask later.
Father Xie looked at his father and then looked back at us, his pupils constricted, and then he whispered: "Xie Zhiyuan is indeed my father's name, but that is what he used before. Later, he changed his name to Xie Fu, and the people in the town ......"
The sudden Gu Xi knocked on the ground twice on the tip of his right foot, because he liked to wear the kind of military boots with hard soles, so the percussion sound would be exceptionally crisp and loud, and it also successfully interrupted Father Xie's words. When Father Xie was puzzled, he asked with a smile: "Change your name to Xie Fu?" Are you sure? ”
I saw Father Xie shrink in shock, and I guessed that Gu Xidao had broken the secret he still wanted to hide. So he sighed lightly and said softly: "He has a bad temper, you better start from the beginning honestly, otherwise I won't be able to persuade him." ”
One with a white face, one with a black face, played just right.
It was when I said that Gu Xi had a bad temper, his indifferent eyes drifted to me intentionally or unintentionally. I kept a calm look on my face and didn't look at him.
Father Xie gritted his teeth and lowered his head and said: "My father and I are not from Brin Town, but we came from other places like you. The day after we arrived in town, we killed Xie Fu, and from that day on, my father became Xie Fu. As for me, because my father inexplicably 'disappeared' and became an abandoned orphan, I grew up with the help of my fellow villagers for a long time. During this period, my father became the secretary of the town party committee through the original Xie Fu's interpersonal relationships, and also secretly promoted me, so that I was slowly promoted from the bottom of the township government to the head of a town. ”
The story was similar to what I expected, but there were a few doubts in it, and I brought it up with the help of Xie's father's breath: "You really happened to be surnamed Xie originally? Was it premeditated or unintentional to come to Brin Town and kill Xie Fu? After you killed someone, how did you make others think that your father was Xie Fu? ”
Father Xie hesitated and replied: "I was only seven or eight years old that year, and there were actually many things that I didn't quite understand my father's decision. With that, he glanced at the old man on the ground. And the old man only half-closed his eyes, and did not pass out, as if he was listening carefully.
I thought for a moment and said, "Then you can tell me what you understand, or how did your father tell you later?" ”
Father Xie pondered for a moment and was about to speak, when suddenly Old Xie spoke: "He is half-understood, let me tell you." I was a teacher in the middle of nowhere, and I once got drunk and killed someone. I had to escape from the village with Tian Yuan overnight, and the reality forced me to take the extreme road, and it was impossible to find out if I killed someone to escape in that era. But once I almost lost my life, I didn't expect the other party to be a ruthless idea, and a knife went straight into my heart. When I woke up, my mind seemed to be guiding me all the way north, and I had been wandering for more than a year before I arrived in this town of Bryn. At the time, I thought it was strange, but when I saw Xie Fu, I felt that this might be a great calamity, and God was showing me the way. Xie Fu actually looks eight points like me, I have been on the run for so many years, and finally found the best way out. ”
The best way out is to kill Xie Fu and replace him! From now on, there will be no source of gratitude in this world.
