Chapter 218: The Beginning of Bad Luck
The short three-month period has finally passed, and the final name match of the A and B killers has begun.
Although Haiyue has wasted her training in the past three months because of love, she can still easily deal with other alternatives.
After the game, only three people were left to enter the finalization match, namely Haiyue, Banxia and Peilan.
Peilan's strength is also recognized in the village, but her appearance is too plain and she has not been valued since she was a child, and it is precisely for this reason that Peilan, who is not as talented as Haiyue, has become a first-class candidate completely by relying on her own proportional efforts.
When he remembered this, Aconitum lowered his head and sighed, allowing himself to temporarily come out of his memories and look at the sea again.
Cang'er asked: "According to rumors in the village, you were not selected in the end that time, and as for the details, no one seems to know." ”
The final naming match is on a desert island, before the game, you need to bring a volunteer helper to the island to survive, five days, these six people must not only guard against sneak attacks, but also try their best to make the three vital parts of each other's body leave their own red marks.
But when the game was approaching, no one volunteered to follow Haiyue, and Haiyue was also determined at that time to let Banxia win no matter what.
And Banxia also persuaded one of his close friends to voluntarily follow Haiyue to the island, which can be regarded as taking care of himself temporarily.
So, Haiyue, Banxia and Peilan each took an assistant to the island by boat at the same time and began the five-day naming competition.
The first four days were spent safely, until the moment of the morning of the fifth day, Haiyue came to the first attack, and it was the best friend entrusted by Banxia who attacked her, that is, her assistant.
And that assistant did not use the act of leaving a mark, but directly killed the killer, if it wasn't for Haiyue's timely response, I am afraid that he would have died under his knife.
Just after Haiyue counter-killed those assistants, Banxia and Pei Lan walked out separately, but at this time Haiyue was still in the dark and didn't understand why all this was going on?
"You must die, it's an order from the clouds." Banxia said coldly, "It's just that before I die, I have to tell you everything clearly according to his arrangement." ”
Haiyue covered her wound and looked at Banxia puzzled: "What? What are you talking about? ”
Banxia said: "You have always been our fierce rival, our strongest opponent, if you go all out in this naming match, we are not your opponents, so I will try my best to make you fall in love with me and make you my woman, so that you can break all your defenses, so that you can take my people without suspicion, even if he can't kill you, he can seriously injure you." ”
Haiyue looked at Banxia in shock: "Why?" ”
Banxia was slightly regretful: "Haiyue, you are really beautiful and gentle, it can be said that you have all the advantages of a woman that a man loves, but unfortunately, you are so beautiful that I feel scared and unsteady." ”
As soon as Banxia's words fell, a smile appeared on Peilan's face on the side.
Haiyue suddenly realized that everything is just a bureau, all of this is just a pre-arranged bureau, what love, what tenderness, all are disguises.
Pei Lan raised the dagger in his hand at this time: "You have a relationship with Banxia, and he can't do it, so I'll do it." ”
Just as Haiyue was about to give it a go, the dagger in Banxia's hand stabbed into the back of Peilan's neck, and then Banxia used a hidden weapon to knock down Peilan's assistant, and then also chased after his own escaped assistant and killed him.
Haiyue was stunned and watched all this, watched Banxia hurriedly return to his side, hugged himself and said: "I'm sorry, Haiyue, I was also forced to be helpless, Master asked me to do this, I had to do it, I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"
Banxia hugged Haiyue and said countless sorry, but Haiyue's whole person had collapsed, just lying in Banxia's arms like that, there was no shock, no joy, nothing.
A day later, Banxia led Haiyue back to the village, and the two came to the house on the clouds, knelt on the ground, and listened to the final decision on the clouds.
Just after Yun Shang gave Banxia the name of Grade A, Haiyue saw a trace of sadness flashing on Banxia's face.
Recalling this, Aconite said lightly: "This is all in my expectation." ”
Cang Er was puzzled: "Why is it expected?" ”
Aconite said: "The so-called fight, the most terrible thing is not to take a person's life, but to directly defeat the soul of the other party, when I suffered the first betrayal, I have lost the ability to fight back, I am convinced of Banxia's words, I know, he doesn't love me, just use me, use me to get rid of other competitors, and then bring me safe and sound to the master, after all, I am the master's beloved disciple, if he kills me, even if it is safe and sound now, one day in the future will be in a different place, in the end, That naming competition was a test that Master let me go through, and it made me see the dangers of the world for the first time. ”
Cang'er suddenly realized: "So that's the case, so it's actually Banxia who is being used?" ”
Aconite chuckled and said, "Yes, it was actually Banxia who was used, and Master used him to complete the rebirth of my Nirvana, so that I would no longer trust anyone after this incident." ”
Cang'er hesitated for a while and asked, "I dare to ask, what does this matter have to do with the slaughter of the trench village later?" ”
"That's just the beginning of everything, and Banxia is not a fool, he soon realizes that he is just a pawn on the clouds." Aconite's face sank, "In the second year after that, I successfully became a Class A killer, and after many years, my status in the village gradually climbed, and I was also resented by a group of people led by Banxia. ”
Cang'er asked, "Why?" Could it be that the establishment of a trench village can clear the relationship with Fengmanlou? When Yunshang fled, he had already broken with Feng Manlou, and even if Yunshang Village was changed to Trench Village, Feng Manlou's pursuit still couldn't stop. ”
Wutou said: "Many years ago, Master sent the killers of Yunshang Village to the Chinese laborers, and he was very aware that the times are advancing, and we will be eliminated by the times sooner or later with our past methods, so he needs people to go to the West to learn and learn their fighting methods and methods, so it is not because of the birth of the trench in the labor group, but because the people who infiltrated the labor group in Yunshang Village established the trench as a recruiting organization. ”
Cang Er seemed to understand: "You mean to say that what Yunshang did at the beginning was just hoping to fight against Feng Manlou?" ”
Aconite said: "It's not a division to fight, but the clouds were originally just a branch of Feng Manlou, and the defection on the clouds was all Feng Manlou's plan." ”
Cang'er was shocked: "Then what is the reason?" Why? ”
"You tend to look at things too simply, and you just look at the surface and think you understand the facts, but in fact they are not." Aconite shook his head and said, staring at Cang'er's eyes, "In the rivers and lakes, there is more than one killer organization in Fengmanlou, there are more than a dozen large and small, although Fengmanlou is the most famous, but there is no guarantee that it will not be replaced in the future, so, the defection on the cloud is equivalent to the establishment of another killer organization, ostensibly hostile to Fengmanlou, in fact, it is only gradually transferring the elite power, after all, Fengmanlou at that time has become a thorn in the side of all factions in the rivers and lakes, maybe one day it will be wiped out together, if there is really that day, Even if the wind is gone, there is still Yunshang Village, now do you understand? ”
Cang Er nodded: "I generally understand, Yunshang is actually not a traitor to Fengmanlou at all." ”
Aconite said: "Yes, he is not at all, after Yunshang Village was renamed as Trench Village, we changed from a two-person killer to a seven-person recruiter, and I also became the captain of the recruiter night owl team from a first-class killer, but what we did was not much different from before, we were all hired by others and let our hands be covered in blood......"
Night Owl and Yaksha have been the elite of the elite since the establishment of the Trench Village, and the tricky tasks are almost all entrusted to these two squads, so these two teams are away all year round and do not spend much time in the village each year.
In the spring of the year when the village was slaughtered, the Nighthawk team led by Banxia raided the house on the clouds in the middle of the night and captured the clouds alive while the Yaksha and the night owls were leaving the village on a mission.
Haiyue, who heard the news, led the team back, united with other teams in the village, and rescued Yunshang on a desert island, Haiyue personally killed everyone in the Nighthawk team, and under Yunshang's instructions, captured alive Banxia, who was about to escape.
When Banxia was thrown in front of Yunshang, Yunshang looked at Haiyue and said, "Now give you two choices, kill him, or let him go, after you make a choice, I will never pursue it." ”
Haiyue looked at the dying Banxia, remembering Banxia's betrayal of herself back then, and the apology that still disgusted him, she knew very well that she couldn't trust the man in front of her.
So, Haiyue raised the knife and killed the first man in his life with his own hands.
The moment Banxia died, his eyes were full of regret, and this regret made Haiyue very puzzled.
Just after Banxia took a breath, Yun Shang showed a relieved smile: "You passed the last test. ”
Haihai looked at the clouds in surprise.
Yun Shang said again: "Banxia really loves you, it was then, and it is now, the reason why he wants to kill me is because he regrets being forced to obey my orders and turn you into what you are now, this is the truth, then, now I will give you two more choices, continue to be your Haiyue, or kill me and avenge your beloved." ”
Revenge? How to get revenge? The man he once loved and loved himself deeply, he was killed by his own hands, and if he wants revenge, he should also take revenge on his stupidity, and he should be the one who slashes himself.
Yun Shang said again: "To do our business, we need to engrave the word 'poison' in our hearts, as the so-called non-toxic husband, I came here like this at the beginning, Haiyue, you will surpass me sooner or later." ”
Beyond the cloud? In fact, Haihai didn't think about surpassing anyone, when she fell in love with Banxia, she knew very well that what she wanted was the life of an ordinary woman, and when she was betrayed, she fell into confusion, living in numbness all day, no longer trusting anyone, and never thinking about surpassing the clouds, to be precise, she was like a marionette on the clouds.
When Hai Hai followed Yun Shang out of the tent with a dagger in hand, he found that everyone except the Yaksha team was standing outside, all of them looking at their leader Yun Shang with respect and adoration, and Yun Shang was kindly holding a child in his arms and amused.
Haiyue put the dagger back into its sheath and knelt down on one knee in front of the clouds.
From that day on, the sea moon became an aconitum, exactly as arranged on the clouds.
But Yunshang didn't know that at the moment when Haiyue knelt down, what he thought in his heart was that the trench village should not exist at all.
