Chapter 44: Doubts
His body hung in mid-air, his feet a foot off the ground, but he couldn't fall to the ground. So, the feet struggled desperately, and they were shaking.
He was grabbed by the neck by the man in front of him, and the man's hand was like an iron tong that could not be broken free and could not be resisted. The hands were so strong that his neck was stuck and he could barely breathe. The man's hand seems to be gradually increasing in strength, if it weren't for his hands supporting the other party's wrist, I'm afraid he would have been suffocated, right?
Despite all that thought, all he could do now was try to resist and try to break free. He had already closed his eyes, tightly closed, not daring to open them.
He was terrified of the look in the man's eyes in front of him.
What kind of eyes were they, and there seemed to be fire in their pupils, hatred and hatred.
"Could it be that the children of the previous enemy have come to take revenge?"
Between life and death, his brain began to work rapidly, eliminating the people in his mind one after another, and finally found that no one could match the face of the man in front of him. The tighter the man's fingers, the faster his brain worked, as if in a final revolt.
"Chen Laogou's descendants? No, all the tasks have been cut down at the end of the hand, how can it be ......?"
Before he could think about it, the voice of the man in front of him broke his thoughts: "Do you remember, the country of the minus?"
"..... with me What's the matter?"
"What about the Little Hidden Village?
"No ....."
What he could clearly feel was that the man's emotions were becoming more and more agitated. His consciousness gradually blurred, but what he could still feel was that there were two people, a man and a woman, standing behind the man, but their expressions were extremely indifferent, like stone lions on top of the temple.
"Where are the soldiers? Where are all the soldiers, why are they not there, have they all fled? There are still reinforcements, why are there no ......?"
The strength of the man's hand suddenly soared, and his consciousness quickly blurred. In the moments before his consciousness disappeared, he vaguely heard these words coming out of the man's mouth:
"yes, it's none ...... you"
"But how much less evil have you committed than they do?"
"Whoever kills, man will always kill him. ”
yes, so what? I'm already going to die anyway.
......
Sergeant Kiss's body slammed to the ground, and the bruised corpse told everyone who saw him that he had experienced a strong dying throes before dying, and that all the negative emotions associated with fear had spread him, but all resistance was futile.
Nine and a half sat on the ground, staring blankly at the man he had just killed, his heart trembling slightly. He looked at his red, almost bloodshot right hand, and gradually understood his heart: it was not timidity, it was excitement. It is a kind of exhilaration, and it is a bloodthirsty carnival after finally proving that he has the ability to take revenge.
With the sound of his heavy but irregular breathing, Wu Liangzi and Wei Xicheng finished cleaning the battlefield. Wei Xicheng did not approach very interestingly, but chose to sit under the nearest tree and close his eyes to recuperate. What he knew was that Wu Liangzi might have something to say to Jiu Han.
Wu Liangzi walked behind the ninth half and did not speak. She just gently placed her right hand on Nine-Half's shoulder, and then transmitted a stream of green energy through her fingertips to Nine-Half's body, and that's it.
That's "purification". Purification can not only purify the noise and darkness of the external world, but also purify the negative emotions and dark side of people's hearts. After feeling the heartbeat of the ninth half gradually stabilizing, Wu Liangzi said softly:
"This kind of life-for-life thing, let's do less in the future. ”
"Yes, I see. ”
They both seemed to automatically ignore their emotions just now, and instead treated each other in a relatively peaceful way, only this time, both sides had something hidden in their hearts.
In fact, when he set out from the lawsuit, Jiuhan didn't know where he was going. He was confused and helpless. At the beginning, Tan Yiju forcibly helped him open the method of borrowing the sky, and indeed told him the location of several people who needed to be found, but he had no clue about the sealer he was looking for next.
The Giver, as the name suggests, is a more powerful being than the one who prostrates. After all, compared to the power of faith, the blessing of heaven and earth is more powerful. The Giver is such a type of person, who is naturally favored by Heaven and Earth, and has an extraordinary power since birth, which is given by Heaven and Earth. This power can be fire, water, thunder or even destruction, and of course, it can also be life-saving and bring everyone back to life.
It is precisely because of the variability of this power that the Giver is the most difficult to find.
"Nine-and-a-half, nine-and-a-half! What do you want?"
"Huh?" It was not Wu Liangzi's voice that interrupted Jiuhan's thoughts, but a slap on his head. Nine and a half years ago, Wei Xicheng was still sitting under the tree with his head lowered, as if he had fallen asleep, so it seemed that the culprit could only be Wu Liangzi.
As for Wu Liangzi, now the whole person is trying his best to hide his panic, which makes Jiu Bansheng have a different mood.
Well, let's tease her.
Jiu Ban slowly stood up, pretending not to be very happy on his face, and his hands were squeaked. He stared at Wu Liangzi's eyes as if he were staring at the eagle falcon of his prey, and then he spoke: "My Wu Xiaoxian Master, is it long?"
"No..... I don't have one. Wu Liangzi was a little flustered, and her panic all fell into Jiuhan's eyes.
"yes? My head still hurts a little. Before he finished speaking, Jiu and a half dodged behind Wu Liangzi, and then his right hand reached out, gently pinched her chin from behind, and then put his face to her left ear and said softly: "If the apology is useful, then what does the yamen do?"
The hot breath from his mouth gently exhaled to the base of her ear, and within a breath the base of her ear turned red. The distance between them was so close, and a tingling sensation gradually crawled through the spine and climbed onto Wu Liangzi's head. For so many years, she had never been in such close contact with a person of the opposite sex, what kind of feeling was this? Wu Liangzi didn't know, she only knew that her breathing was getting shorter and shorter, and it seemed that some functions of her body were gradually being lost.
It seems to be a little embarrassing.
Jiuhan seemed to want to make further moves, but was interrupted by Wei Xicheng on the side. "Nine and a half, stop playing, what should I do next?" Wei Xicheng really wanted to give the young man a little time, but now that the remnants of the battlefield had not disappeared, it was impossible for the country of the Kiss to let go of a troop that had disappeared out of thin air. If they don't leave as soon as possible, they are all in danger.
What's more, the night is already very deep now, even if they are not discovered by the enemy, and the movement efficiency in the night is the lowest, how can they easily escape?
"Let's go to the land of Pulao. As Wei Xicheng's voice fell, Jiuhan let go of the panting Wu Liangzi and said. He looked to the east, which was the direction of the capital of the Kiss Country, and his eyes were a little misty.
"Okay..... Then we might have to go a little further south and then buy a small boat by the sea and cross the sea to Pu Lao. ”
"Wait, wait, where did we get the money to buy a boat?" Hearing Wu Liangzi speak, Wei Xicheng directly interrupted her words: "Have you forgotten that our money has been cheated away by Bai Shake!"
"So we crossed the mantis and went to Pu Lao. Nine and a half spoke, but his eyes were still fixed on Dongfang and did not leave.
"No kidding, you, we just killed a group of Kiss soldiers, and now entering the territory of Kiss is not like a wolf in the mouth of a tiger?"
"The most dangerous place is the safest, right?" Nine and a half looked back at Wei Xicheng with unquestionable firmness in his eyes.
Looking at the firm eyes, Wei Xicheng was a little stunned for a moment. It seems that this is who I used to be, and no matter what the decisions of others are, I always stick to my own path. I used to be confused, confused, difficult and helpless, but the results always proved that I was right.
So, despite the disagreement, in the end, Wei Xicheng complied with his decision.
When he set off again, Wu Liangzi was full of doubts. When Jiu Ban decided to go to Pu Prison through the mantis kiss, she obviously felt the emotional instability in Jiu Ban's heart. As Shaohong's disciple, Wu Liangzi has indeed inherited some of her master's abilities, such as the trick of spying on people's hearts and predicting the perception of the future, but it has been weakened a lot.
Vaguely, Wu Liangzi felt that Jiuhan's body was full of uncertainty and some danger that could not be seen. She always felt that Jiuhan's decision to go to Pu Prison through the mantis this time was not his own true thoughts, and everything was probably hidden by others. But everything must be evidenced, and how can it be concluded without evidence?
She decided to secretly investigate, there must be something else behind this.
On the fifth hour after Jiu Ban and the others left, the morning light was faint.
The old temple had been destroyed five hours ago and is now in ruins. In the ruins, a vole scurries around in search of food, and in its subconscious, all destroyed places should have food left behind by its predecessors.
But why is there nothing here?
The twist of fate seemed to happen in an instant, and the vole was suddenly grabbed by a black hand. The vole that stayed in mid-air was held tightly, and then it was carefully observed by a pair of dark, seemingly eyeless eyes, which was very interesting.
"There are no traces left, and it looks like the opponent is not an ordinary person. ”
"What do you think it looks like?"
"Probably at least a master at the level of a great master of the human realm, and there should be more than one person. ”
"So?"
"So, find them and kill them!"
Then, the vole was placed on the ground. The moment it touched the land, it ran away with all the strength of its life. All the emotions associated with fear knot in its mind, then entangle, release, and finally explode. For the rest of its life, it had not set foot in the confines of the ruined temple again, nor had it ever seen a more terrifying creature than the owner of the black hand.
Therefore, what this vole will never know is how terrifying the three humans it encountered today in its only life are, and it will not know that these three black figures are members of the "Inquisition", one of the three most terrifying institutions in the land of the Kiss.
They are, judges.
After three days of traveling eastward, the nine-and-a-half group finally walked out of the deserted place and came to the gate of a city. This city is majestic and majestic. The city wall is extremely thick, and the gatehouse is more than ten zhang high. The walls were full of soldiers, and they were extremely heavily guarded.
When there were still hundreds of zhang away from the city gate, Wei Xicheng and the nine and a half Wu Liangzi said, "Do you know where this is?"
"Flamed City?" said Nine Half, pointing to the huge plaque on the city gate.
"That's right, this is Chaos Flame City, but not every city on the entire continent is qualified to be called Chaos Flame City. Wei Xi swallowed and spat at the mouth, he looked a little nervous. "This is the most heavily guarded city in the entire country of the Kiss, more than any other country, and the only reason is ......."
"It's because it's holding more than 90 percent of the criminals in the entire Kiss Country, right?"
"That's right. Nodding to the nine-and-a-half, Wei Xicheng continued to look a little nervous and said: "There are even rumors in this city that the legendary 'Thousand Miles of People Slaughter' is being held at the bottom of the prison, so it is definitely not to be underestimated.......
Although they discussed nervously for a long time, they were actually surprised to enter Chaos Flame City safely.
So, all three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
I found a tavern to fight, and after sitting down, a few people found that in fact, this place was not as terrifying as Wei Xicheng said. After ordering three meats, two vegetables and a pot of wine, Jiu Ban whispered to Wei Xicheng: "Brother Wei, it's not as scary as you say..... here."
"I don't know. Speaking of this, Wei Xicheng was a little embarrassed, "I came here many years ago, and the atmosphere is by no means as ...... as it is today" As he spoke, Wei Xicheng's voice gradually became quieter, and his eyes were a little straighter. He stared intently at the man in the corner of the tavern who was dancing with his eyebrows, and that face was really familiar.
"Look at that ......" Wei Xicheng spoke, Jiu Ban and Wu Liangzi followed his gaze, only to see a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child talking to others with his eyebrows fluttering, the table in front of him was full of chicken, duck, fish and meat, and there were even two pots of fine peach blossom stuffed!
Looking at it, Nine Half's eyes also straightened, and then he yelled, and the huge sound wave directly knocked the entire tavern people over. And the name he shouted couldn't be more obvious.
"White Shake!"
It's indeed a white trembling, that's right.
Actually, nine and a half is really a bit stupid. Do you still have to inform people before you arrest someone? So after Jiu Ban yelled, not only Wei Xicheng and Wu Liangzi, but even the entire tavern looked at him like a fool.
But Bai Shao didn't choose to look at the fool, but rushed to the street the moment he heard the sound of Jiu Ban. It was afternoon, and although there were not many people, there were not a few. In particular, the roadside peddlers and pawns were in groups, and those who fled were like fish in the water, but the people who captured them panicked.
Despite this, Jiu Ban still chose to chase out without saying a word, Wu Liangzi and Wei Xicheng followed closely, so a stumbling chase began in the downtown area.
Bai Shake is a veteran in this area. As a repeat offender, how can he pass if he doesn't know how to escape? He is relatively small and young, and even if someone sees him, they will not consider him a prisoner. So, this habitual deception shuttled back and forth among the flow of people, he was extremely fast and didn't even knock over an apple, but when he passed by someone's yellow flower girl, he might casually pick up someone's little skirt, but when the other party found out, he had already run away.
Life always has to be a little interesting.
Contrary to Bai Trembling, the Nine and a Half Men caused great confusion. Jiuhan, who had never caught anyone, was in an urgent mood at the moment, and he just wanted to catch Bai Shao and get his luggage back as soon as possible. All the money and belongings that were hidden before were almost used up, and if you couldn't catch Bai Shiver, what should you do next? So along the way, although it almost caused a situation of chickens flying and dogs jumping, the distance between him and Bai Shao was not effectively shortened, but increased more and more.
The gate of the Flames opened to the south, and they pursued them from south to north, gradually approaching the center of the city.
"Bai Shao, you stop me!" Jiu Ban shouted loudly, as if he wanted everyone to hear Bai Shao's name, but no one seemed willing to help them stop them.
Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead. Jiu Ban's heart was still a little happy, could it be that Bai Shizhen was stopped by someone? But when the corner of his eye swept to Wei Xicheng, he found that Wei Xicheng, who was running on the eaves, suddenly stopped and wanted to retreat, and in an instant, his heart began to find that something was wrong.
Stopping in a hurry, the sense of crisis made Jiu Ban have the idea of fleeing in the opposite direction. But as soon as he turned back, he found that several iron horsemen were coming out behind him, blocking their retreat.
Ahead, the crowd gradually separated, and saw that there were also more than a dozen iron horsemen blocking the way in front of Bai Shao, and Bai Shao Shao collapsed on the ground and seemed to have fainted, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
In the middle of the night, one of the iron horsemen came out in a row and said to the nine-and-a-half three: "It is a few of you who caused the riot, right?"
