Chapter 57: The Dying
"There are some things that you have to do. Xi smiled wryly, "For me, the same is true. ”
"What are you looking for me for, please let me save your life?" walked up to Xi and pinched the copper kettle in Xi's palm, "Why do you think I will help you now?"
"I just begged my husband to save her life. ”
"Why? What conditions do you have that can tempt me?" said the kettle. The copper kettle rolled on the ground a few times, and finally rolled back to Xi's ankle.
"I'm a sinner, I've killed so many people for a woman, and I'm guilty of dying. But Yi'er is innocent. She's so pathetic, she just wants to live. Please sir, save her. ”
"Joke! I was ignorant back then, but I was touched by the of the two of you. Now that I'm sober, how many people in this world dare to say that they are innocent? Guilty is guilty! No one is born thinking about harming others! Even if they are innocent, what does it matter to me? So many people are innocent, do you want me to save them? Am I not innocent? Does anyone save me?"
"I don't know what happened to my husband, and I'm not qualified to comment. But why can't you think about it once, sir, if Yanyu is also in Yi'er's predicament, you should ······"
"What did you say?" interrupted Jiang Xi's words, "Yan Yu? ”
Only then did Xi realize that she had slipped out of her mouth in excitement. His face froze, the worn-out scarf around his neck moved without wind, and tiny black dots of light appeared in the air.
"You guys, investigate me, dare to investigate her!"
Originally, our target was only the last soldier, but then we learned from the eyeliner that the last soldier went to Lilingjian, and then rushed to Shaoyang with a woman. You have made such a big disturbance in Shaoyang, we can't turn a blind eye. What secrets can a small Liling Stream hide? I didn't expect my husband to have such a relationship with them before. ”
"Really, how is Jingchuan now?" Xiao didn't laugh angrily, and the gloomy smile made Xi shiver unconsciously.
"The dragons have no leader, a plate of scattered sand, and people are panicking. At least a dozen kingdoms have declared their independence, and the empire is preparing to step in. ”
"Congratulations, the current Xiling is finally the strongest country in the world. But please remember, how I can destroy Jingchuan, how can I destroy Xiling. If you dare to touch a hair of her, Yi Sang will be the next Shaoyang!"
"Sir, don't get excited. You know, I'm an envoy on the surface, but I'm not an Empire. Moreover, now that the last soldier is by Miss Yanyu's side, we won't do it. ”
Hearing this, the invisible aura beside him gradually faded, and he said, "The last soldier, this-stirring stick is finally a little useful." As for you, go back. We each take care of our own business, if the rain is in danger, I will protect her, I can't control your Yi'er. ”
With a "plop", Xi knelt down on his knees in front of him and said, "Mr. is not a ruthless person, Wu begged Mr. to save her life." ”
"No, I don't save it. He threw down a sentence indifferently, and walked up to the Zhuangren Bridge without his head.
"Qi Rang!" Xi finally shouted. There was no reaction, and his back gradually blurred, about to disappear into the purple mist at the bridgehead.
"You don't need to save others!" Xi picked up the copper kettle at his feet and stood up, "Lao Tzu gives you a piece of advice!
Hearing this, Jin's back stiffened, and after a while, he moved half a step forward, and then completely stopped in place. Xi calmed down, her throat was dry, and she looked nervously.
Finally, the figure in the purple mist turned back and walked slowly but firmly in front of Xi. After a short silence, she looked at Xi's clenched fists and said, "Give it back to me." ”
Xi was stunned for a moment, spread out his palm, and revealed the copper kettle again. He picked it up, put it in his arms, and said, "This is my thing, and if I want it back, it doesn't mean that I will help you." ”
Xi didn't know why, so he continued, "However, we can talk about the deal again. You're the Charm Minister, and I think you still have tradable value. ”
"What do you want, if I can do it. ”
She chuckled and whispered in Xi's ear. Xi frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Imperial Heavy Machine, I usually can't touch it. ”
"Then it's up to you. Compared to other people's medical expenses, this is cheaper for you. ”
"Don't worry, I'll bring things out. There was a hint of determination in Xi's single eye, "It's just that you have to pick up the things yourself." ”
"What tricks do you want to play?"
"I'm just telling you a fact. The secrets of the dark night of the empire can only be brought out by the dead. Please come to Yisang to collect my body in the first week of early July. ”
"Interesting, what do you want me to do?"
"I want to ask my husband to send me to death. ”
······
At the end of June, the city of Chigo was surrounded by heat, and the various forces lurking in the border area invariably quieted down, and the rare peace disguised the chaos. Like a blazing desert afternoon, the poisonous scorpion hides under the yellow sand to hide from the heat, but as soon as the sole of its foot is stepped on its body, the tail needle will quickly deliver a painful blow to the unlucky guy.
On the street, a one-eyed man in a black shirt leads a group of men armed with knives and axes to break into a liquor store in a menacing manner. Passers-by dodged when they saw them, not even daring to get closer to see what was going on in the liquor store. A fat catcher with a shiny face led the officers and soldiers to arrive, and after blocking both sides of the street, he also did not dare to enter the liquor store.
In the restaurant, the shopkeeper collapsed next to the counter, holding a steel knife with a curled blade in his hand. There was a jet-black palm print on his forehead, his skull collapsed, and his eyes were purple-black bloodshot. The drinkers were lying in pools of crimson blood, their necks seemingly torn open by the claws of tigers and leopards, and some of the wounds were even exposed to the cervical vertebrae. Some of the dead still had weapons in their hands, and the blades also had terrible rolls.
The one-eyed men and men ignored the dead men, but gathered around a cracked wall, their faces solemn. There was a man's corpse embedded in the wall, the death was tragic, countless dense fist marks beat him into a puddle of flesh, there was not a complete limb on his body, his skin and flesh were broken, and his muscles and bones were broken.
"Boss, the fourth master ······" A strong man stepped forward and asked tentatively. The one-eyed man raised his right hand and motioned to his brother behind him to stop talking.
"The fourth child has no real skills, he is arrogant on weekdays, and he doesn't know how to hide his deeds, and he has a lot of enemies, I have long expected him to have this day. If he hadn't been known as our Blade Splitter, this day would have come much sooner. The one-eyed man turned to leave and walked to the counter, "In a place like Chige City, vendettas are very common, and people have long been familiar with them. It's just that the murderer killed the other drinkers this time, and even killed the shopkeeper Luo. What is his secret? Shopkeeper Luo has good skills, much stronger than the fourth child, and he never mixes with the struggles of other forces, nor does he make enemies with others. Even Shopkeeper Luo suffered misfortune, this matter is not as simple as vendetta. ”
"Perhaps, it was a perverted murderer who came in from the border, and the fourth master was just unlucky to bump into him. ”
Hearing this, the one-eyed man turned his head and looked at the man: "Let me ask you, Lao Die or Shopkeeper Luo, who is stronger?"
"Well, it should be Shopkeeper Luo. ”
"With a slap on the head, a move to kill, Shopkeeper Luo is not a general of that guy. With his strength, why bother with the fourth child for so long?" the one-eyed man looked at the corpse on the wall that had been beaten into flesh by a punch, "He is here for the fourth child." ”
"What a bold man!, dare to attack our indifferent people!" the crowd shouted angrily in unison.
The one-eyed man shook his head, and was about to speak, when suddenly his pupils shrank, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead. It was a strange feeling, the horror hit the soul, and his spine was cold, as if the gaze of a natural enemy was scanning behind him. He didn't understand what was wrong with him, and for a while his body was stiff and he couldn't move. The brothers in front of him didn't seem to react, they were still talking, and he could see their movements, but he couldn't hear the sound.
"Master Gu, you let them go. A hoarse and trembling voice sounded in the one-eyed man's mind, "Let's talk business." ”
