Chapter IX: Receiving Forces
"Thank you, Brother Zuo Xiu. Yang Tiantian smiled sweetly, "Brother Zuo Xiu's flower chicken is so delicious, it's even more fragrant than my brother's!"
"Your brother?" A trace of confusion flashed in Zuo Xiu's eyes, he knew from Yang Tiantian's title that the elder brother in her mouth was not his brother Zuo Soul, so he asked subconsciously.
"Hmm. Yang Tiantian nodded, his expression became arrogant, "My brother is very powerful! He is one of the top ten outstanding students in the academy!"
After speaking, she muttered dissatisfiedly: "But he always manages people's houses here and there, and he is verbose." β
"You should be very glad in your heart sometimes, to have such a brother. Zuo Xiu touched Yang Tiantian's head and smiled, a trace of envy and nostalgia flashed in his eyes. Once upon a time, he was like this, that person always followed him all day long, whenever he was annoyed by him, and he always shrugged his shoulders and slapped his hands at him, and said with a smile: No way, I am my brother, I have the right to control you and protect you from bullying, who called you my brother!
And now, that man has left him forever.
So, there will be no one to fight for themselves in the future.
Therefore, there will be no one to protect themselves behind their backs in the future.
So, he's missing him now, really thinking about it......
Yang Tiantian lowered her head, and her long hanging hair covered her red and pretty face.
Putting away his sad emotions, Zuo Xiu looked at Yang Tiantian dotingly, "By the way, why are you still outside so late yesterday?"
After speaking, Zuo Xiu obviously felt the other party's body stiffen, and immediately trembled and whimpered.
"What's wrong?" Zuo Xiu raised Yang Tiantian's face with concern, and at the same time reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Yang kept sobbing every day, heartbroken, "Yesterday was my brother's funeral...... Woohoo......"
Zuo Xiu's body stiffened, and he remembered that he had told them that if his impersonation was exposed, he would send his brother's ashes and clothes back to Zuo's house.
Zuo Xiu looked at the sobbing Yang Tiantian inexplicably, hugged him into his arms, and let him cry.
After a long time, Yang Tiantian's crying became smaller and smaller, and finally stopped sobbing and left Zuo Xiu's arms.
"Are you better?" asked Zuo Xiu softly.
"Hmm. Yang Tiantian nodded slightly.
"His funeral ...... Is it grand?" Zuo Xiu asked with a complicated expression.
"Hmm. Yang Tiantian nodded, "My brother's funeral was very grand, the monarch said that he would be buried with royal etiquette, and even the monarch and the dean came on the day of the burial." β
Zuo Xiu tilted his head and tried not to let his tears fall.
"Brother Zuo Xiu, don't you go back and take a look?" Yang Tiantian was a little hurt, "Godfather and godmother, they need your comfort now." β
Zuo Xiu took a deep breath, "No, I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress the anger in my heart." β
Then, he stared straight at Yang Tiantian, "Can I trouble you to do me a favor?"
"What's the help?" Yang Tiantian patted his chest and promised, "As long as I can help every day, I will definitely help Brother Zuo Xiu do it." β
"Huh. Zuo Xiu couldn't help but reach out and stroke the girl's head, and smiled slightly, "I want to enter the Thunder Academy." β
"Ahh
Retracting the hand on the girl's head, Zuo Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression was firm, "Because...... I want to be strong, I want to have power, the power to subvert the empire. β
In the imperial capital of the summer kingdom, in a huge cemetery on the outskirts of the city, he was lying peacefully behind one of the new tombs with his fingers crossed, when suddenly, a drizzle began to fall from the gloomy sky.
Zuo Xiu opened his eyes, but he had no intention of hiding from the rain, he looked around with a complicated expression at the towering tombs, these were the ancestors of his Zuo family, and this was the cemetery of his Zuo family.
At this moment, Zuo Xiu's ears moved slightly, and he heard two light footsteps coming in his direction. Eventually, the pace stopped in front of the grave where Zuo Xiu was lying.
In front of the grave, a man and a woman stood quietly in the drizzle, bathing in the drizzle, looking at the tombstone with a sad expression.
After a long time, the woman spoke: "Help me, I want to take over his power." β
"Are you crazy?" the man looked at the girl in disbelief, "He's dead, those forces should be independent and independent, and the chaos is out of control, how did you take it?"
The voices of these two people Zuo Xiu remembered that it was the voices of Liu Wushuang and Liao Li.
The words of the two aroused Zuo Xiu's curiosity, although as the three leaders of the Killing Building and the Intelligence, Zuo Xiu had long known that his brother had secretly established some forces, but he didn't know how huge they were, but at this moment, from the words of these two people, Zuo Xiu could vaguely know that this force seemed to be not small!
"So, I need your help. Liu Wushuang stared straight at Liao Li with both eyes, because of the mask, outsiders couldn't know the expression on her face at the moment.
But Liao Li, who had been silently watching her, knew that her face must be emotionless, because her heart was dead, and along with the boy in the grave, they died together.
"Good. Liao Li slowly raised his head, and difficult words spat out of his mouth: "I can't refuse your request." ...... Say, what can I do to help you?"
"Thank you. β
When she said this, Liu Wushuang's eyes did not fluctuate, and she turned her gaze to the large tombstone that stood tall, "In two days, I will replace his glory, and then go there to negotiate with them, and if you can accept it, you can't accept it on conditions that are enough to be moved." And you will help me quell the turmoil of the underground forces in the imperial capital and reunite this force. β
"I refuse. Liao Li shook his head, his eyes burning at this graceful girl who he had never seen her true face but loved to the bone, "Although the underground forces in the imperial capital are not small, they are not as important as those forces there, and the risk is not as high as there, so I plan to ......"
"No need!" Liu Wushuang directly interrupted his words, his tone indifferent, "Your strength is too low, and it won't make any difference if you go, just help me manage the underground forces in the imperial capital." β
Liao Li smiled bitterly, yes, his strength is too low, although he is named one of the top ten special students of the academy, his strength is still too low to protect his beloved.
As if seeing the discomfort in the young man's heart, Liu Wushuang sighed softly: " There are several leaders of the underground forces in the imperial capital who know the identity of Zuo Soul, and they also vaguely guess Zuo Soul's original intentions, and now Zuo Soul's death has exposed their original ambitions, and they want to unify these forces, there will be great turmoil, and this is the imperial capital, the monarch's now, once they make a big turmoil, it will inevitably be noticed by the monarch, and at that time it is difficult to ensure that Zuo Soul was the leader of these forces will not be revealed, once this matter is leaked, Zuofu will be punished for the crime of rebellion, so you have to unify these forces before thisγ β
Liao Li's mouth opened, but he didn't know what to say, in the end, as long as he nodded, he also realized the importance of this matter, Zuo Soul had saved his life, and he was also the person he had vowed to follow for the rest of his life, and now, he didn't have the opportunity to repay him with his life, but it could be used to repay his family.
