Volume 4 Crimson Nation 0174 Return to the Ghost City
Zheng Xiaofeng was melancholy for a long time, and finally got into the car in a daze. Bai Qianyu and the others couldn't help but sigh, no one felt happy at the moment.
I thought everything was going well, but I didn't expect to end up stuck in such a small section. How could it be so coincidental that it was this Li Biao who broke into the total handicap and got the list.
Xu Qingyun too, if you want to help Zheng Xiaofeng take revenge, can't you choose a smoother way? How can you say that he is also a gangster boss, what can't he do in black and eat black? It's not impossible to kill people after taking the list, it's good, you have to do what you say. Alas, I didn't see you so honest when I was doing the game.
It can only be said that Xu Qingyun is so strange, it's outrageous, how can a person who values love, faith, and morality as so important survive? Several people often feel that this should be a person who came out of the novel, and only in this way can it be explained.
The car was still moving forward, but the people in the car were silent for a while.
This is a matter of course, as Cheng Ruxue, Dong Quede and Bai Qianyu, they can't say it at all, and they can't ask people not to take revenge, and they can't ask people to destroy the Great Wall, everything can only be decided by Zheng Xiaofeng, Xu Qingyun, and the two of them.
As for the consequences, in fact, you don't need to think about it to know that the bad degree must be far more serious than what Xu Qingyun described. Once the list falls into the hands of the police, the police can follow the vine and wipe out all the sellers and buyers above, and the direct result is that all the financial channels of the Qingyun Society will disappear overnight, and the foundation for maintaining its operation will be gone, and then immediately after, I am afraid that no one will dare to cooperate with the Qingyun Society, because the Qingyun Society has become a target, and once the crack of trust is generated, it is almost impossible to recover.
As a result, the Qingyun Society may gradually decline, and Xu Qingyun may no longer regain the majesty of the past, and all the good things he did before will be burned. And once the tiger falls into Pingyang, what will be the end? Go without saying. How was Zheng Xiaofeng treated after the decline of the Zheng family? Xu Qingyun has been walking the rivers and lakes for so many years, so he can't have no enemies, right?
Thinking of this, Zheng Xiaofeng's heart felt even more unhappy, and in the car, the silence continued.
The main thing is that no one knows how to speak, and when they do, what to say.
Until half an hour later.
"Snorrβ"
The abrupt voice suddenly broke the silence, and everyone suddenly came back to their senses and found that Xu Qingyun had fallen asleep.
"I-no-" Zheng Xiaofeng was dumbfounded, almost speechless, and the rest of the people looked incredulous.
"He's too big, isn't he?" Dong Que looked at everyone and couldn't help but say.
"Maybe he felt from the bottom of his heart that he had made the right choice, and since it was the right one, it would be more comfortable." Bai Qianyu said.
"He thinks, but I don't think so." Zheng Xiaofeng suddenly sighed, "Do you think I'm a little strange?" Obviously, everything he said was right, such as 'Qingyun Society should not exist for a long time', but why didn't I want him to do this...... Am I not indistinguishable from wrong, or am I ......"
"Don't think so." Cheng Ruxue interrupted him, "That's just because you never like to owe others." β
Zheng Xiaofeng shook his head and stopped talking again.
The snoring continued, and a few people didn't bother too much, so they had to look out the window, and if there was anything unsettled, they all kept it in their hearts and continued to entangle.
When night just fell, the group came to the special pier of a shipping company. The old way, the old route, by boat, out to sea, to the ghost market.
Xu Qingyun didn't wake up until this time, let out a long yawn, stretched his waist, and got out of the car with the others with a satisfied face.
"Wait for me nearby." Xu Qingyun said to the driver, and at the same time stuffed the driver with a large stack of money, signaling him to have fun at will.
"Thank you, Master Xu!" Driver's Road.
Zheng Xiaofeng was not too embarrassed to look at Xu Qingyun, Bai Qianyu put on a passerby's face mask, and with the bustling crowd, everyone got on the boat in a group.
The steamer departed, the dock faded away, and when they reached the open sea, another ship came to pick them up.
And this time on the boat, Zheng Xiaofeng noticed some details that he didn't notice last time. On the deck, on the mast, there is a pattern printed in many inconspicuous corners: a pair of jade jue. Now he knows that it is an exclusive symbol on behalf of Shen Qianjue.
In a trance, time seems to go back three years.
On the deep blue sea, a luxurious giant ship gently sailed by, leaving a faint spray on the water......
Starlight fell from the distant horizon and fell into the deep sea of tens of thousands of meters, dense and boundless......
The stars in the sky and the light on the bottom of the sea reflect each other, illuminating the whole world into the same pale cyan color as the seawater, and you can see far, far away, so that people can't tell where the starry sky is and where the sea surface is for a while...... The cool sea breeze blew away the heat and sent away the hustle and bustle, and only the clarity and silence remained here, adding a little ethereal to this beautiful cyan color......
Under the moonlight, 21-year-old Zheng Xiaofeng stood quietly on the side of the deck, holding on to the guardrail with both hands. In the starlight, he raised his handsome face slightly, and looked silently into the quiet distance.
There are still things in my heart, but my mood is already different.
"This young master? You look a little familiar, and a little raw. A slightly vicissitudes of voice sounded in his ears, Zheng Xiaofeng turned his head, and at a glance recognized that it was the sailor who had spoken to him three years ago.
Zheng Xiaofeng smiled bitterly and said, "You forgot? When I left three years ago, I had a gun in one hand and Juda in the other. And her. As he spoke, Zheng Xiaofeng pointed to the bench in the distance, where Cheng Ruxue and several others were sitting.
"Oh, oh, it's you!" The sailor thought about it this time, "At that time, we said that it was fortunate that you were such a person, otherwise we don't know how much trouble Juda would have caused here." β
"And how's business going?" Zheng Xiaofeng waved his hand, signaling that there was no need to mention those things again.
"It's okay, it's not as good as when it was in its heyday, but it's still a thriving business." The sailor replied.
Then another voice sounded behind him.
"Now the entire treasure thief world, the market of your ghost market is quite reasonable, after all, you are comfortable here."
It was Xu Qingyun who walked over.
As soon as the sailor saw that it was Xu Qingyun, he hurriedly bowed and said with a smile: "Xu Ye is here?" β
Many passengers around heard it and focused their eyes, seeing that it was Xu Qingyun, their faces showed a look of admiration and awe, and many people also wanted to come over to say hello, probably because they wanted to have a relationship. Xu Qingyun waved his hand, like a big star in the entertainment industry, signaling everyone not to be too fanatical, those people were also obedient, they all stopped in place, and each did his own thing.
"Well, here we are." Only then did Xu Qingyun respond.
"Xu Ye's business should be good recently, right?" The sailor said, "There is such a big thing happening to the Star God, and the Spirit Wind Hall has always been very low-key, and you are the only one left in the outside world." β
When the sailor said this, Zheng Xiaofeng couldn't help but glance at Xu Qingyun again, if there was no matter about Li Biao, what the sailor said would have come true.
"I can't say that." Xu Qingyun didn't seem to care, and said very openly, "I've encountered a little trouble, but it's not a big problem." β
At this time, other sailors in the distance beckoned him to do his work, and the sailor finally nodded his head and said, "Good Master Xu, I wish you all the best, I'll go and get busy first." β
Xu Qingyun said "um", and there were only two people left next to the guardrail, Zheng Xiaofeng and Xu Qingyun.
"You call that a little trouble?" After struggling for a long time, Zheng Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask after all.
Xu Qingyun snorted lightly, and lay on the guardrail with Zheng Xiaofeng, leisurely blowing the sea breeze, and said slowly: "Of course it's a small problem for me." β
"I don't believe it." Zheng Xiaofeng dimmed.
"Whatever you want, but I'm telling the truth." The corners of Xu Qingyun's mouth were still raised unruly, "As long as I, Xu Qingyun, am here, there is no problem that cannot be solved, this is the truth that the entire treasure stealing world has tested for more than ten years, if you don't believe me, you don't believe in the truth." β
Zheng Xiaofeng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"You always seem to be so idealistic."
"No, I'm a more realistic person than anyone else. Reality is not pessimism, and those who live in pessimism and still boast of reality are just defeated by reality. There are good and bad realities, this is an objective fact that must be acknowledged, but at the same time, you must also believe that reality exists because it will always develop in a good direction. I know you don't want to go, but we are born and die, can't we do this little thing for each other? Between brothers, what do you have to worry about thanking or not thanking? Attention, until this moment, Xu Qingyun is still saying that this is a "trivial matter", "I admit that the current situation is not optimistic, Qingyun will face a catastrophe, but I will not, if there is a person in this world who can solve any problem, then that person must be me." It's just a matter of starting all over again, and it's much better than when I first debuted, and this kind of excitement is exactly what I wanted. The meaning of my life is to constantly accept challenges, if there are no magnificent waves, life is like a pool of stagnant water, that is the biggest torture for me. β
"I know that you can see everything, and there is probably no one in the world who is more open-minded than you. But at the end of the day, you've done so much for me......"
"You still don't understand, but if you put yourself in my shoes, you can see how happy I am now. Everyone's value trade-offs are different, some people put the most important position of the family's wealth and power, but for me, the word 'righteousness' is my most precious thing. Most people may not even make a real friend in their lifetime, but I have a lot of them, how lucky is that? You are my friend, and I have to thank you for giving me the opportunity to give. For a lifetime, I can live for myself and others, and I dare to say that I am the best person in the world. β
Zheng Xiaofeng is stupid, how can he say it, but it turns out that he wants to thank himself? This Xu Qingyun, what kind of ghost logic is all in his head?
Seeing that Zheng Xiaofeng was speechless, Xu Qingyun patted him on the shoulder, in short: "Don't think about it, we still have a long way to go, and our friendship will last for a long, long time, maybe there will be a time when you will need to pay for me in the future, and I believe that you will not want me to feel guilty for this at that time." β
Zheng Xiaofeng thought about it this time, smiled half-smiling, and seemed to be a little relieved, maybe time will prove everything, then leave everything to time.
"Alright, don't talk about that." Xu Qingyun slapped the railing twice, "Always being afraid of the kindness that others give you may also be a bad thing." β
Zheng Xiaofeng took a long breath and could only nod slowly.
"Okay, let's say something else. The people in the ghost city seem to have a better attitude towards you than I expected. Shouldn't you be enemies? β
Xu Qingyun paused, nodded with a smile, and shook his head again: "The enemy of the enemy can also become a friend, and the truth of the cold lips and teeth is only understood by Paradise." Sometimes we do business, and the things you encountered in the ghost market before were because they mistakenly thought that everything Juda did was instructed by me. β
Zheng Xiaofeng suddenly realized.
The sea breeze seemed to be softer, and it was obviously just an endless sea all around, but Zheng Xiaofeng still felt familiar inexplicably, and I don't know how long it took, Cheng Ruxue also came over, first smiled at Xu Qingyun gratefully, and then said to Zheng Xiaofeng: "I feel like I'm about to arrive." β
After a while, lights gradually rose in the distance, and the sky suddenly brightened. The sailor was on the side, still in that position, still in that action, still in that tone:
"The ghost market has arrived."
The ship began to slow down slowly, and in a short time it was close to the island. Dong Quede, who had just arrived, looked at Bai Qianyu and couldn't help but be taken aback like Zheng Xiaofeng in the past.
Countless highway bridges surround the island's perimeter, clusters of skyscrapers are lit up a little farther away, the stars are illuminated, and the headlights bustle on the ground...... Today's ghost market seems to be more prosperous than it was in three years, and no modern city in the world can match it just by looking at this prospect......
A group of five people followed the crowd to get off the boat and walk on the beach, Zheng Xiaofeng and Cheng Ruxue felt for a while, they really didn't expect to return to this place that is obviously dazzling and dazzling, but there are no people and no ghosts.
To be precise, they didn't even expect that they would have so much intersection with the Treasure Hoarding World.
Xu Qingyun, who was powerful in all directions, actually called himself a brother and sister at this time. Elysium, the two sides actually had such a face-to-face confrontation. The story continues, maybe the other two of the four villains, the others of the sixteen thieves, may also have a chance to meet in the future?
β¦β¦
I don't know if this will be fun or bad......
Five people walked to the parking lot.
"Okay, let's do our own thing, I won't talk to you anymore, and go directly to Dream Tang Xuan." Xu Qingyun sat on the seat of the car and said with a little excitement.
Bai Qianyu also chose a car by himself and said, "I may be in trouble, Shen Qianjue's whereabouts will not be so easy to inquire about." β
Zheng Xiaofeng and the three nodded, and also chose a car, and the three cars started, each running in a different direction.
