Volume 4, Demon Raven Demon Palace_Chapter 316, Flying Over the Pyramid
Leaning against the gloomy windowsill, I looked out at the rainy streets of Shanghai, wet, and it was another rainy day.
There were many days with bandages on his body, but this time it hurt very badly.
"The doctor said that if the bullet misses one centimeter more, it will pierce your heart, and when the Da Luo Immortal comes, it won't be able to save you." Senior Guan walked over with a bowl of porridge and said. It's like the plot of the movie, but at least I survived, maybe because Yudie never shot a gun, God took pity on me and let me survive, "Drink some porridge, replenish nutrition, you need to eat more." ”
I shook my head, with a thick quilt on my chest but still feeling cold, it was the fourth day since I was discharged from the hospital, but it was still difficult to speak, and I could smell the fishy smell in my throat as soon as I opened my mouth.
"What do you think?" Senior Guan asked after putting down the porridge bowl, and seeing that I didn't say anything, he continued, "I won't tell you, Jun Yan has prepared a back road for you, let you go out and hide for five years, and come back after five years." At that time, as long as you keep a low profile, there shouldn't be a big incident, so what do you think? ”
I turned my head slightly, looked at the senior Guan in front of me, thought about it and said, "Is this the end of my life from now on?" ”
This is a very sad thing, in the past, the reason why I entered the industry was to make more money, to be able to help the fat man's second uncle pay off his debts, and to improve the living conditions of the family. I never thought that one day I would reach such heights, I just wanted to be a businessman. But later, with the change of life and the improvement of cultivation, I began to have expectations, I thought that one day I might be able to make a name for myself in this circle, and I could really become a big man in the circle, and walk there step by step, even if I didn't want to, but when I looked back, I found that I had come a big way. I want to become the new director of the 507 Institute, not only to help the fat man and Yuan Feng avenge, but also to achieve something. In my thirties, I finally made a name for myself in the circle, and when I looked back and was surprised to find that I was already a figure, I longed to make myself a big one. But, perhaps by fate, I fell back to the starting point again, even worse than the starting point!
"Child, sometimes don't be blinded by fame and fortune. Those who stand at the top of the pyramid in this circle, with countless bones under each foot, you are not them. You can't do what they do, you can't be these people. "Guan's words made me feel discouraged, because he used to stand at the top, at the top of the pyramid, so if it was any other person who said this to me, I would have refuted it, but now he is saying these things to me, and I can't refute it.
I lowered my head and looked at the seriously injured body, this body has been in this circle for more than ten years, it seems young, but I know that I am not a genius, I am not like Zhong Banian can become a member of the tea party at a young age, the earth immortal cultivator. I'm not a prince of the demon clan like the Five Princes, and I can make the world tremble with a wave of my hand. I'm just a mortal, an ordinary mortal with just some good luck!
"But ......" Senior Guan suddenly changed his tone at this time, "They can't do what you can do." ”
"What can I do?" I looked up at him in surprise.
"You may never be them, because they can only reach the top of the pyramid, and they stand on that sharp corner and look up at the sky, thinking that they are the closest to the sky. They enjoy the feeling of trampling other people under their feet, but you won't be one of them. Do you know? Why are you being hunted down? Why did you become the object of their hatred? I shook my head and saw a warm smile on Seki's face, and then said, "Because you have wings, you can soar into the sky and soar above the blue sky, while they can only stand on that poor sharp horn and watch you fly." Maybe you're covered in bruises now, but trust me, bear with me, and one day you'll fly into the blue sky. ”
I have always felt that I have lived until now, and there are three old men who have had a great influence on me in this half of my life, the first is Mr. Cui, although this veteran did not teach me any magic skills, but he taught me the most precious point, that is, to be a bloody man. If there is revenge, there will be revenge, and if there is kindness, it will be repaid, and the character will be upright! He is like an old-timer who warned the fledglings about danger since childhood, he tells you how wide the sky is but full of changing winds, you can't fly in the sky alone because you still have wings to fight against the wind, so be an upright person, then friends will keep gathering around you. They will join forces with you to fight the tempest and crush the storms that seek to destroy you! The second is Tao Yiyan, if it weren't for his series of back hands, there would be no later achievements for me. He is like a senior who teaches chicks how to fly, groom their feathers, he tells you what kind of weather to choose to fly, he tells you how to avoid danger when a storm comes, and he tells you how not to wet your wings in a heavy rain. The third one was Guan Senpai, who found a new direction for me and pulled me back from the brink of depravity. Like a predecessor who once roamed the sky but now returned home, he depicts for you how vast the sky is, inspires your inner ambition, and makes you understand that flying is fate.
My outlook on life may not be as correct as it is written in the books, I have killed people, I have been in prison, I am greedy for money and adventurous. But I know that I can still fly into the sky and be the goshawk that flutters its wings and breaks through the clouds!
"Do you really think so?" I asked in a low voice.
"Yes, but before you fly, you'll have to drink this bowl of porridge." He tapped me on the shoulder, then got up and went back to the room. I picked up the bowl of porridge, looked out the window at the damp street, and swallowed it one bite at a time, a force surging in my heart. Today's failure is not the end, and I will definitely be able to get through five years of forbearance.
Senior Guan was meditating in the room when he heard a knock on the door and said, "What's the matter?" ”
I unscrewed the doorknob and appeared in front of him, whispering, "I hope to see a few people when the injury is healed......"
The golden fat man didn't expect that his plan that he had arranged so well would fail in the end, looking at the rain butterfly in front of him, he said a little angrily: "I gave you three bullets, but what was the result?" You only hit me once, and you didn't kill Ba Xiaoshan! ”
"You can't blame me, I've never shot him, and I've already hit him, you can't kill him. Now you must keep your promise and give me back the IOU! And another million to give me, that's mine! Yudie also asked angrily.
The golden fat man smiled coldly and said, "You still want to ask me for money?" Okay, okay, come on, give her the money! ”
While speaking, a person walked over with a cash box, and Yudie took the cash box to protect her, and then shouted: "What about the IOU?" ”
"IOUs? Hehe, I can't give you ......" The golden fat man sneered and said, Yu Die showed a puzzled expression, and heard him say, "What I told you is that if Ba Xiaoshan dies, I will give you the IOU." You help me kill Ba Xiaoshan, and when Ba Xiaoshan dies, I will return the IOU to you, and give you both the hanging red and one million, and we will both clear it from now on. But alas, Ba Xiaoshan is not dead now, so our deal didn't work out, you know? ”
Yudie was stunned for a moment, then opened the cash box and took out 500,000 yuan from it and put it in front of the golden fat man, and then shouted: "Here is 500,000, give me the IOU, we will pay it off!" ”
The golden fat man sneered: "Do you really think that this IOU that has been around for decades is only worth 500,000? Girl, there's a thing in the world called interest, you know? ”
"Interest? How much is that? Yudie asked.
"According to the content of the IOU signed by your father at that time, you can't add 20% interest in a month, even if this IOU has been 20 years, then by now, the interest on this 500,000 yuan has become 24 million, so you owe me a total of 24.5 million!" The moment the golden fat man reported this number, Yu Die's face turned pale.
"Twenty percent interest? How can there be so many ......," Yudie muttered in surprise.
The golden fat man looked at the dumbfounded girl in front of him, and after a while, he said, "I have a way for you to pay off this money as soon as possible, as long as you do me one more favor." ”
