Chapter 53: Selfishness

These words were heart-wrenching, and Hall was flustered for a while, he couldn't imagine that the boy in front of him, who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, would say such sharp and direct words.

Hall shifted his gaze to Brudy, who saw that there was only humility and pleading in Brudy's eyes, and he was still shaking his head.

He thought of what Nalan Xingtian had said just now and shook his head.

Thomas's voice came again: "Hall, you and your companions behind you are the same, there are only two choices. One, stab Brudy and express his determination and sincerity. Second, it became the same tragic situation as Brudy. ”

Thomas's voice was deep, his words were slow, and there was an inexplicable oppression in his words.

Nalan Xingtian glanced at Thomas unexpectedly, this Thomas is still a master of psychological warfare.

While Hall was still hesitating, the two slaves behind him scrambled forward a few steps and said, "Boss Thomas, I'll do it." ”

"Boss Thomas, I do it too, and I'm very sincere. ”

At Thomas's motion, the two men stabbed two more holes in Brudy's body in quick succession.

Pain and injury are in others, and living is the greatest asset.

"Mr. Hall, are you still hesitating, I'm afraid that Mr. Thomas's patience is running out. Nalan Xingtian walked to the front of Hall, his left hand holding a bloody iron bar, and he raised a finger: "I have dozens of strokes." ”

"One. ”

Hall's fists clenched.

"II. ”

Hall bowed his head.

"Three. ”

"Four. ”

"Five. ”

"Six. ”

Hall was still thinking.

"Seven. ”

Hall looked up at Thomas and whispered, "Mr. Thomas, can you ......?"

Before Hall could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Thomas: "Hall, what Nalan Xingtian said is equal to what I said. ”

"Eight. ”

A drop of cold sweat dripped down Hall's cheek.

"Nine. ”

"I promise. Hall walked over and took the iron bar.

Hall walked up to Brudy's side, crouched down, and looked at Brudy's miserable condition, still sad in his heart.

Brudy didn't know how many knives he had been stabbed, he felt like his blood was running out, but the pain kept him conscious, and he watched Hall approach him with a sharp iron bar, and he was terrified and helpless.

He saw Hale raise his arm, the sharp iron rod looking terrifying in Brudy's eyes, and he mustered up the last bit of energy, and he kept shaking his head, and his mouth let out a whining wail, the voice was low, like a desperate dying beast.

Then he heard Hall saying to him, "Brudy, if there is an afterlife, go to a good family, and be rich and prosperous all your life." ”

Then he felt a sharp pain, more intense than any pain before, and then his eyes went black, and the whole world was plunged into endless darkness.

Hale pulled out the iron rod that had been stabbed into Brudy's skull, which was still stained with gray brains, and he threw it on the ground and said to Thomas, "Boss Thomas, you should be satisfied now." ”

Thomas narrowed his eyes slightly, he thought that Hall would stab Brudy at most, but he didn't expect to kill him directly.

He walked over and patted Hall on the shoulder, "Very well, Hall, from now on, you are one of us." ”

Seeing that Hall's behavior and honest face were in stark contrast, Nalan Xingtian couldn't help but feel that this person had a weak temperament, but all this had nothing to do with him.

"Boss Thomas, is there anything else?" Hale asked.

"When you need to act, I'll find someone to notify you and help Ron get the key. Thomas said, looking at Hall.

"What about Brudy's corpse?" Hale asked.

"Find a place to bury it, the body is easy to dispose of, but I wonder if anyone from your side will look for him?" said Thomas.

"I'll deal with it over there, if it's just two or three days, I can handle it, but after a long time, it won't work. Hall said.

"Nalan Xingtian, what do you think? Is there enough time?" Thomas sounded the song and harmony between Nalan Xingtian and himself just now, which put pressure on Hall, which was a perfect match, and he valued Nalan Xingtian a little more in his heart.

"Three days is enough. Nalan Xingtian looked at Hall and said.

"No problem, wrap it up on me. Hall agreed, and then said, "Boss Thomas, can I go back first?"

"Go ahead, I'll let Ron know you if there's anything. Thomas waved his hand.

Hall turned and left with the two slaves who had come with him.

Nalan Xingtian watched Hall leave and said, "This person is very afraid of death, and he belongs to someone who can give up everything in order to save his life. ”

"I know, but aren't we the ones we need at this time?" said Thomas.

"Yes, we need him. Nalan Xingtian muttered as he looked in the direction of Hall's departure.

......

Hale turned to leave, just now he forced his composure, but the farther he went, the fear and chagrin in his heart spread, and his hands trembled slightly.

What did I do? I killed Brudy.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and his vision around him was blurry, and he was unaware.

"A cowardly ally is more hateful than a cruel enemy. ”

Nalan Xingtian's words seemed to still ring in his ears, thinking of his last stab through Brudy's head, and his desperate eyes seemed to be pouring out his sin.

However, after all, he never resisted his cowardice.

Hall fell to his knees in the mud, letting the rain wash over his body, wishing that the rain would be a little heavier, so that he could wash away the guilt in his heart.

The two slaves who followed followed followed followed and asked, "Boss Hall, what's wrong with you?"

He bowed his head and said in a low voice: "Today's matter, no one is allowed to mention it after I go back, if anyone asks about Brudy's whereabouts, I will deal with it." ”

"No problem, Lord Hall. The two slaves responded.

This road is a road of no return after all.

......

Nalan Xingtian and his party were digging a pit, taking advantage of the heavier and heavier rain to wash away the bloodstains, and most of the patrolling guards and slaves took shelter from the rain, unattended, there was a faint fog around, and the visibility was less than ten meters.

Thomas showed Brudy's body in a corner, Ron brought the improvised tools for digging the pit, and the four of them set to work.

The pit was dug, the corpses were placed, the tops were filled, and then they were washed by the rain, and there was no trace of them anymore.

Nalan Xingtian thought of a question: "There won't be anything wrong with Hall's side, right?"

Thomas laughed, "You may not have spent much time with him, but in my opinion, he doesn't have that courage, as long as he doesn't threaten his life and force him to a desperate situation, he will guard his promise better than anyone who swears an oath." ”

"Why?" asked Nalan Xingtian.

"Fame, glory has nothing to do with him, the kind of person who is extremely selfish will only care about himself. Thomas replied in the affirmative.
