Chapter 167: The Secret of the Badge
Now that Litian is listed as such an object of suspicion, the form is naturally very dangerous. But he didn't know anything about these situations, but he was still kept in the dark.
It wasn't until the two tied him to the bloodstained wooden frame that he had the feeling of impending disaster.
The room wasn't huge, but it was full of torture instruments. These torture instruments are really varied, and there should be them. Some torture instruments have never been seen in the past few days, or they have never been heard of.
It can be seen that this family is really like Stephen described, there have been all kinds of talents.
As soon as Litian was tied up, Xiao Qi couldn't wait to pick up a mace, and his head was like Litian calling. This mace is a natural formation of some plant, and the arm-thick brownish trunk is covered with sharp wooden thorns.
Especially the maroon red blood stains on it, which have long since dried up, render it even more hideous and terrifying. Just as the mace was about to touch his body, he suddenly reached out and snatched it away.
At the same time, the big man, who had been silent, said in a deep voice: "You go out first, I want to interrogate this person alone." ”
"But Madame is calling us together," Xiao Qi had just said this, when he suddenly saw two cold rays of light coming over, and immediately swallowed back the following words. I didn't dare to say anything more, so I turned around and hurriedly walked away.
The footsteps of the little man gradually faded away, and the big-headed man was still like a wood carving, and the pestle was there. The room suddenly fell into silence, and the atmosphere in the room became extremely depressing.
"Could it be that he's using psychological warfare?" Li Tian secretly pondered in his heart. However, he clearly realized that the person in front of him was a master interrogator.
Don't look at the big head, he didn't say a word, and he didn't even look at Litian. But the psychological pressure he brought to Litian was huge.
This is a resolute personality, and being an outsider is just this atmosphere and aura, which is not something that ordinary people can bear.
This deathly silence lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour. The big head slowly raised his head, nodded slightly approvingly, and said, "You are psychologically stable and a person you can trust." ”
After saying this, the big head slowly took out a silk handkerchief from his arms, and gently opened the badge wrapped inside.
This badge is obviously extremely precious to the big head, and looking at his cautious appearance, I am afraid that there is the slightest damage or disrespectful behavior.
The big man held the badge with his hands as steady as a rock, but he couldn't hide a little nervousness and excitement in his words and asked, "Where did you get this badge, and who are you?" ”
Li Tian looked at the big-headed man with some surprise. This person has always been calm from the time he attacked him to his previous performance. What is it that makes him show up, such a gaffe?
If it's that leather, Litian can still understand. Because after all, it is recorded that it is an extremely important skill for this family.
But why did the badge make him look so excited? What does this badge mean to the family?
Li Tian thought to himself, but he was afraid that he would be fooled by that Stephen again this time. The importance of this badge is by no means as simple as he makes it lightly. But I am afraid that all the things written on the leather shall not be fully trusted.
Litian scolded himself for being stupid. How can a person who can become the head of a clan and create a unique skill have no scheming. blamed himself for being careless and unguarded against this hand, but now he was fooled by a dead man.
Although Li Tian secretly blamed himself, he said tepidly on the surface: "Then who are you?" Why do you care so much about this badge? ”
The big-headed man probably didn't expect Litian to suddenly ask such a rhetorical question, and he was stunned for a moment. Then he seemed to smile slightly, and a look of appreciation appeared in his eyes again.
But this time he didn't speak, just stared at Litian. Litian also seemed to be casual, looking back at the big-headed man.
Silence immediately returned to the room.
As the minutes passed, the big-headed man finally seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and slowly spoke: "Yes, you are really good." You are the most resolute man I have ever met, and you are also a man of great wisdom.
Since we are all smart people, let's open the skylight and say something. You've probably guessed who I am, not bad! I am the Heber mentioned on the leather, and this badge is the token of our family heritage, the badge of the patriarch. ”
Although there were speculations all over the world, I was still a little surprised to hear these inside stories from Heber's mouth.
He cleared his thoughts for a moment before slowly asking, "That means that Stephen didn't pass on the patriarch position to his younger brother at all?" ”
Herb sighed and said, "Actually, it's not, the patriarch originally meant to pass on the position to his younger brother. But our family-specific ability has a fatal flaw.
These Stephen patriarchs have already told about it on leather, and it is for this reason that the position of patriarch cannot be easily passed on to others at that time.
So Patriarch Stephen planned to refine his ability before he actually passed on the position to the current patriarch. Therefore, he has been the acting patriarch.
It's a pity that it was this incident that caused a misunderstanding and caused the brothers to turn against each other. As for what happened next, you know what happened. ”
Hearing this, Li Tian still didn't understand what their so-called ability defect was, but the context of the whole thing was basically clear.
Since his ability is now abolished, he is even more imperative to the entire set of exercises that he has always remembered this family.
So he asked tentatively, "No matter what the reason, I finally fulfilled Stephen's request." How are you going to make good on his promise? ”
The reason why Li Tian said such a thing was to see that this Heber had no ill will towards him. Judging by the way he asked Stephen about his performance and attitude, he was a man of affection.
Otherwise, he has already obtained what he wants, and now he can completely kill himself. So now Stephen's burial place has become his only hole card.
Heber immediately understood Litian's thoughts, and he said with an interested look in his eyes, "What kind of reward do you want?" ”
From the beginning of designing a trap to capture himself, to the current period of open and secret fighting, Li Tian has a deep understanding of the terrible person of Heber.
Not only is this man calm and tenacious, but it is also his wisdom that threatens him the most.
Li Tian can obviously see from this person's eyes that his inner activities are only afraid that he will see through them early. He was just deliberately acting like this, indicating that he was sure that everything was in his chest, so that Litian would not dare to produce any conspiracy.
