Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Cage or the Fence

In the small courtyard of the green tile, a burly man took off his cloak, fetched a bucket of water from the well in the courtyard by himself, and poured it down with his head up. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He only felt a burst of coolness, and he let out a long breath: "This ghost weather, it's so cold in the morning, but it's so hot at noon." ”

He glanced at the poor scholar-like man sitting on the rattan chair, and then glanced at the medicine bowl on the stone table, and said with a smile: "Old poor sour, you look like you have no breath, do you have to count with your fingers, and you still have a few years to live?"

This poor scholar-like man is Ah Heng's stepfather, Yue Wuying, he opened his eyes slightly, looked at the man dressed as a person from the rivers and lakes, his eyes closed again, and he didn't want to deal with him at all.

The man didn't care, and said with a grin: "What's the matter? Today is such a good day, and you haven't made a show, alas, there is a lack of a woman in the family!"

"Okay, for the first time in ten years, I came to the door in person, could it be just to say that these are useless?" Yue Wuying said lightly.

"Uh-" Guo Zizhong snorted his short hair, and he was speechless for a while.

"Let go of any fart!" Moon Shadowless still had her eyes closed.

"Do you want to fight?" the man said angrily, rolling up his sleeves.

"Is this the amount of the dignified governor of Northern Xinjiang?"

"Tut-tut, I naturally have a lot of adults. But you are an old and poor sour, you eat people with a soft mouth, and you take people with soft hands, do you understand this truth? Old poor sour, I said that you eat me, drink mine, and throw it to me when you are in trouble, and you don't have a little bit of gratitude. Why do I feel like I owe you eight lifetimes every time?" the man ripped off his cloak and took out a stack of banknotes and placed them on the stone table.

This unruly man is none other than Guo Zizhong, the governor of Northern Xinjiang, who is arrogant on a stone bench, and his big hands like a fan keep fanning the wind, which is completely similar to his usual majestic appearance. I only heard him dissatisfied: "You said you, you don't have good wine and good food, forget it, it's rare to come back, can you give a good face? ”

"Outside, it's just a bigger cage, under the eternal night, everyone is just a bunch of captive playthings? can't get out of this continent, where is it not a cage?" Yue Wuying said indifferently, "What's more, a cage or a fence? It varies from person to person, you see it as a cage, but I am willing to eat in it! At least, in this side of the world, I am me." ”

"Well, I can't tell you, don't talk about the eternal night at every turn. Don't worry, even if the eternal night comes, I can still protect you two. Guo Zizhong waved his hand, not caring at all. He suddenly remembered his thoughts and asked, "By the way, the old poor sour can't forget the ten-year appointment!"

"I never dare to forget. ”

Guo Zizhong waved his hand and said, "I came this time mainly to ask, the ten-year appointment is approaching, what are your plans for the future, the former No. 1 assassin in the world?"

Yue Wuying's eyes suddenly became ethereal, and there seemed to be countless sword lights and sword qi flashing in his eyes. And the whole person is like a sword out of the sheath, with a strong momentum, exuding arrogance that cannot be refused. However, slowly, slowly, this momentum gradually disappeared, and the sick man was still in front of him.

"Ten years ago, you and I agreed that the wolf city was the boundary, and the ground was the prison, and I was not allowed to leave the wolf city for half a step within ten years. However, ten years have passed, and Yue Wuying has long since died, and there is no so-called first assassin here, just a down-and-out old man who is barely breathing. Now, I just want to see the last scenery of the continent, the future world belongs to those young people, maybe they can finally change the world. The moon shadowless's expression was full of sadness.

Guo Zizhong looked at the man in front of him, and he was also full of emotion in his heart: If it weren't for a coincidence, it would be impossible for him to be trapped here. The lonely moon shines without a shadow, and the blood is full of spring and autumn, this strange man who can be called a unique man in terms of martial arts and talent was a taboo for people all over the world back then, and it was also a nightmare for countless people. Ten years have passed, and only a few people know that Yue Wuying is in Wolf City, in this courtyard, and it is the sick old poor sour in front of him. Did he destroy this man, or did he help this man? I can't answer, in any case, for ten years, I have regarded him as a lifelong friend.

"Whether you leave or stay, I support you, and of course if you are willing to stay, I will support you more. Guo Zi said loyally and pleadingly, "Old and poor, the so-called thousand-year-old catastrophe is just a legend of annihilation, what you are worried about may not happen, and what you are afraid of may not appear-"

Yue Wuying shook his head, not wanting to continue the topic, he suddenly smiled and said, "You are pretending, are you here to catch me?" As if letting go of a huge burden in his heart, Yue Wuying's tone was much more relaxed.

"What's there, although the wolf city is small, it won't be enough to send you two the rations. ”

Yue Wuying smiled slightly: "That's good, but you only need to support one person." Ah Heng has grown up, and he will leave one day. But no matter where he goes, I believe his heart will always be in the north. ”

Guo Zizhong was overjoyed when he heard this, patted his thigh and said: "Okay, this is what you said, it just so happens that I have something to discuss with you, so that you can continue to exert your residual heat in your old age-"

Yue Wuying looked at the man in front of him who was obviously in a high position, but always looked like a scoundrel, and felt helpless, and he sighed that the other party immediately got an inch.

"I'm here this time, I originally planned to let you move to the Governor's Mansion and enjoy your old age with me. By the way, teach those two children for me, one is the dog Guo Wu, and the other is the son of a close friend, entrusted to me before I left. Guo Zizhong's face was shy, as if he was ashamed to say the following words, "

Well, these two children, absolutely gifted and brilliantly bonely, are rare prodigies, and will not disgrace your name, but - just - a little - a little - naughty, you know, my deceased wife died young, I was busy with official business, and neglected to discipline-".

At this time, the Governor, who was like a god in the hearts of the military and civilians in Northern Xinjiang, deeply realized the helplessness of being a parent, and had to play the sad card for the sake of his children.

"Forgive meβ€”"

"What?" Guo Zizhong, who was especially immersed in the sad atmosphere he had created, couldn't extricate himself when he heard this, jumped up, and pointed to Yue Wuying's hand and kept trembling, "Old and poor, you ..... you ......"

Yue Wuying looked at him coldly.

Guo Zizhong sat down dejectedly, this kind of thing can't be forced to buy and sell. He suddenly sighed and said:

"Alas, I know, some people's conscience has been eaten by dogs, thinking that back then, my old ginseng that I had treasured for many years was reluctant to use it myself, and I saw someone dying, so I gave it to him, so I saved his life, and I thought it was better to feed the dog. Guo Zizhong glanced at it as he spoke, and found that Yue Wuying was still indifferent, rolled his eyes, and continued:

"And that little doll, someone won't take care of it, the wind and cold have accumulated for a long time, and life is on the horizon. I don't know who was so anxious that he broke into my room in the middle of the night and almost scared me out of half my life, and who secretly extended the medical treatment for him. Alas, I don't mean to repay me by saying this, I really can't see that some people are ungrateful! Okay, don't say these things, don't say it," Guo Zizhong said without saying anything, but continued to babble:

"Also, over the years, how many things have been done for certain people, and how many times have I received money and food, I can't count them until dark. Let's just say this time, Ah Heng's stinky boy is not worried, and he actually drove the inspector's son crazy, if it weren't for me standing in front of me-"

Yue Wuying's face twitched, obviously angry, and interrupted: "Okay, please listen to me next time, it is impossible to move to the Governor's Palace, but the children can come over, I hope you don't regret it." ”

Guo Zizhong was immediately petrified, knowing that he was too anxious and misunderstood the meaning of the other party, his face was suddenly like a red cloth, and he just wanted to burrow his head into the well immediately.

Yue Wuying looked at the other party's appearance, and couldn't help but smile slightly. I don't know when I started to trust the person in front of me, who was once an enemy, but now he has become a friend. Especially if he is still a killer that everyone respects away. Perhaps some people are born with a trait that makes people unconsciously trust him and be attracted to him.

"What about Ah Heng's kid, is he hiding, then Liu Chengcheng is indeed a bit miserable, Ah Heng has done a little too much this time!" Guo Zizhong pretended to look around, and his face was no longer embarrassed.

"Crying all the way is not like crying as a family, how is the difference between the Liu family and the beasts?", Yue Wuying snorted coldly. He had witnessed the scars on Ugly's arm, covered with marks that had been eaten by countless insects and ants, and he couldn't imagine what kind of suffering an ordinary girl had. And such scars, according to Ah Heng, there are many more on his body.

Guo Zizhong looked at each other in surprise and touched his head, Lao Tzu didn't mess with you, what kind of biao!
