The young scholar reading on the kang shook his body for no reason, only to feel that a cold air had no chance to envelop the hut, he tucked the quilt in front of him down, and tightened the cotton clothes on his body, now it is autumn, and it is normal for the night to be cold quickly, and he did not notice anything unusual.

Wang Wen glanced at the middle-aged man lying straight next to him.

Because it was a wound that he had personally treated, Wang Wen became more aware of Li De's injuries, and even as long as he moved, those ulcerated and broken skin would rub against the bandages, which was painful, but even so, the middle-aged man still never made a sound.

But Wang Wen knew that Li De's heart was actually relaxed because of this.

The Son pays the Father's debts.

Does that mean that this matter has already been revealed?

Li De, who was still in a panic all day yesterday, calmed down for no reason, if this matter can really pass like this, what is this injury on his body?

"Wang Wen. Only a middle-aged man with an unbandaged face left, said: "After you finished according to my words in the afternoon, the two of my family were not suspicious, right?"

The young scholar put down the book: "No." ”

Li De breathed a sigh of relief and said sincerely: "Thank you, I'm afraid I will have to stay with you for three or five days, and I will go back when the wound is better, and I will have to trouble you before then." ”

Wang Wen waved his hand again and again and said: "Uncle is polite, Qi Wang and I are originally small, these are all things that are within my responsibility." ”

Li De had a good impression of the young man who liked to sneak to his house when he was a child, and he looked at the clothes on the shelf next to him: "There is still some broken silver in the pocket of my shirt, not much, you can use it first to buy medicine and expenses during this time, if it is not enough, I will return it to you after I go home." ”

Wang Wen smiled bitterly, but did not refuse directly, but nodded.

Li De smiled, and then said: "Also, you ask my brother and sister-in-law not to run this way, they are always coming in and out, I am afraid that it will arouse the suspicion of others, you don't need to explain too much, just tell them...... Well, let's just say I don't want to see them. ”

The scholar responded gently.

Finally, the middle-aged man who had nothing to do closed his eyes and fell to the ground.

Wang Wen glanced at the small red brick courtyard opposite the window.

In his world, many people he knows have changed.

The righteous child king, who is very arrogant and will stand out for a few bullied children in the alley everywhere, has finally become the strangest appearance.

Wang Wen sighed, closed the window, and blew out the candle at hand.

However, he did not notice that under the fence outside the house, the young man was sitting with his back to the wall, holding his head in his hands, like a sculpture.

It was only when there was a slight snoring sound in the darkened room that the young man slowly got up.

In the darkness of the alleys where the moonlight does not shine, young people walk against the walls, like sneaking ghosts.

In the town of Red Lake.

The young man was dressed in a black robe, like impermanence in the underworld, looking for someone to ask for his life.

Main street in town.

The man with a flushed face staggered down the dark street, and he got down from the abrasive goblin bed in the Cardinal Bird Building not far away, if he hadn't had to accompany the young master out tomorrow morning, he would never have gotten up from the white and tender bodies of those little girls.

A long time ago, he just left the house, worked as a handyman, worked as a coolie, and later also entered the Cardinal Building to be a small servant serving tea and water, the turtles and bustards in it are all mean and bitter vampire leeches, there are slight mistakes and scolding, they are beautiful and bright, and few of the quiet and well-behaved Qingqi are good things, and they never treat people as people, even those low-status warm-up prostitutes, they have never shown a smile with him, and they are full of disdain.

The period after Li Liuzhi left the township school was the most confused and dim, he just wanted to find a job, earn some money, and be able to make himself and his family live a better life, he was willing to endure hardships and work hard.

But it didn't work.

He looks down on the lazy embryos, they just flatter, back and forth, but a few words will top his daily efforts, can be transferred and reused by the bosses earlier, he thinks that those who just have the remnants of their fathers, and the arrogant guys who speak and think are disgusting to normal people, will be coldly looked at by people sooner or later, but he is wrong, a few dollars in people's hands are better than anything else.

He adhered to the previous righteous blood, poured out his heart and lungs to a few so-called friends he knew, and clenched his fists for them, but he didn't expect that when the East Window incident happened, these people all walked around, and he was the only one who shrank in prison in fear, and was redeemed by his angry and angry father and mother.

He values love and righteousness, thinks about others everywhere, but people treat him as a fool, calling him a brother when he is fine, and slipping away when he has something.

Li Liuzhi, who had endured all the hardships, inadvertently went to Zhang's house to do a small job.

He suddenly learned to be smart.

began to learn from the people who were the most despised and disgusting before, learn from their coldness and ruthlessness, learn from their flattery and wagging their tails, he could still tell himself at first, just putting on a mask, he would not be such a person in his heart.

But after tasting all kinds of sweetness, he fell deeper and deeper, and one day he followed the housekeeper, and when he wanted to seize the property of a person under his hand, he simply stabbed a knife in his chest during the fight, Li Liuzhi suddenly found out.

The mask on his face seems to be integrated with his real self, and he can no longer take it off.

He was still worried about whether he would be held accountable by the government, and when there was no more daylight, the chief butler casually dispersed the catchers who came to him, and patted him on the shoulder approvingly, and since then, he has changed from a short-term worker to a long-term worker.

For the first time, he felt the power of power.

He began to do all kinds of evil.

Li Liuzhi climbed up step by step, stepping on the bones and flesh of good people, and finally was crowned as a clever and capable person, and became the confidant of the Zhang family's housekeeper, and recommended him to the young master who would come back several times a year as a guard.

His outlook on life and his philosophy were completely distorted the moment he met Zhang Qian.

Li Liuzhi has sworn countless times that he must live like Zhang Qian.

What good and evil are rewarded, what heavenly reincarnation is, it is just the self-comfort of the weak.

So now, every time he returns to Yangliu Lane, he can enjoy the envious eyes of his neighbors and fellow villagers, and he can be like the turtles and bustards back then, beating and scolding them like he did in the past.

He desperately exchanged his dignity for money in a little-known place, and then used money to buy dignity in a crowded place.

Li Liuzhi walked and walked, his stomach suddenly turned over, and after drinking too much, he leaned on the wall next to him and vomited.

After a while, Li Liuzhi, who could only retch, finally stopped, he wiped the filth off his face with his sleeve robe, and just wanted to straighten his waist, a clean white square cloth appeared in front of him, he subconsciously took it, and turned his head in confusion.

Who?

It's a black-robed man.

Li Liuzhi wiped off the remaining dirt with a dry cloth, and said indifferently: "Zhang's?"

At this time, those boys under the Zhang family will come out to find themselves, but looking at the actions, it seems that he is very good at things, not bad.

The black-robed man slowly raised his head, pursed his lips lightly, and a moment of softness appeared on his face: "You weren't like this before. ”

Li Liuzhi was shocked when he saw that familiar face, and most of his drunkenness was gone.

However, before he could come back to his senses, the black-robed man had already put a hand on his shoulder and whispered in his ear: "Liuzhi, listen to the advice of your younger brother, don't be a dog in the next life." ”

Li Liuzhi trembled and lowered his head, and a snow-bright short knife was inserted in front of him, only the exposed hilt and the palm holding it could be seen.

Qi Wang pulled out the scarlet-stained short knife.

The man staggered back and fell to the ground with his hands on his bleeding wounds, staring at the young face under the black robe, and before he could open his mouth, a large mouthful of blood poured out.

"You...... You!"

Li Liuzhi's mouth kept pouring blood foam, and his eyes were terrified.

He saw that joyless and sad face dilated in the dilated pupils.

He heard the last two words he had ever heard in his life.

Let's go.

Then a flash of blood appeared.

The black-robed man cut off a frightened head with a knife in his right hand.
