Chapter XXVII: The Spokesman of Order
When Xu Ye said the last sentence, Chen Jing instantly found that the situation was a little out of control.
At first, Chen Jing thought that all the people who came to the house were guests, at least the old man himself said so, so even if the conversation was not fun, it would not start a fight at home.
But now......
"Has this woman always been so brave......" Chen Jing looked at Xuye, who was still smiling softly, in disbelief, and his heart was full of surprise.
Although Chen Jing has not lived in the inner world for a long time, judging from his short experience, in this inner world, there are many people who scold the old man, but there are basically no people who really dare to do it with him in front of him.
"Sheriff General...... What a majestic ......."
Chen Bofu's cold eyes hid a look of madness, and it seemed that he was about to go crazy uncontrollably.
At this time, Chen Bofu's cloudy pupils trembled violently, and the blackened iris seemed to melt in an instant, and many things similar to black tentacles began to spread in the whites of his eyes......
"Are you going to kill me?"
Xu Ye stared at Chen Bofu directly, suddenly tilted his head, pointed to the totem on his brooch and said.
"I am the Sheriff of the Eternal Night Market, and there is no one in this city who is more powerful than me except the Supreme Councilor, and killing me is tantamount to declaring war on the [Round Table Council]...... Mr. Chen should understand this, right? ”
"Take the council to press me?" Chen Bofu laughed.
"No, I'm just stating the facts."
The calm tone of the preface did not make waves, and the gentle smile on his face was still there, but the cold tone was always like a robot...... I can't hear the emotional activity that humans should have.
"Maybe you're not afraid of the Parliament's want, but what about your grandson?"
Whether it is Chen Jing as a grandson, or Yu Yu who is at a loss on the side, they all know very well what this old madman's reverse scales are.
So when they said this sentence in the prelude, they had already begun to secretly scream in their hearts.
Yu Yu took a step back, for fear of being affected by the next battle, while Chen Jing took a step forward and grabbed the old man's arm.
"What the hell is going on......" Chen Jing looked at the old man with a puzzled expression, and asked in a suppressed voice, "Aren't they guests?" Why is this going to be a fight again?! ”
Chen Bofu rarely ignored Chen Jing, his eyes stared at Xuye as if he was suppressing the anger in his heart.
"It's not like I haven't killed anyone in the council......"
"Yes, indeed." Xuan Ye replied calmly, and a trace of human mood finally flashed in his eyes, which was a curious look.
"Mr. Chen, I heard that you have even killed a sheriff like Yuyu."
Chen Bofu didn't speak, and it was so quiet that it was frightening.
Meanwhile.
Outside the balcony, the roars of the "redeemers" were heard again, and from time to time scarlet meteors with their tails flashed across the night sky.
The dim light reflected on the faces of everyone in the room through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the atmosphere was suffocating.
"Five years ago, there were thirty atonementers in the council."
Xu Ye suddenly turned his head, looked into the distance through the glass, looked at the behemoths walking in the city with a calm expression, and his tone of voice was still gentle and cold.
"But because of an accident, you accidentally provoked you, and you killed fifteen of them...... The current atoning for sin are the ones who survived. ”
"What about going through old accounts?" Chen Bofu grinned, his old laughter was full of sarcasm, "Then I'll just kill them all today, it's not interesting to keep so many of them......
"Actually, I don't want to provoke you."
Xu Ye suddenly stretched lazily, his right hand on the elbow of his left arm and slowly extended, but his eyes always stayed on Chen Bofu's face.
"But I want to try ......"
"Try what?"
"Before the previous sheriff retired, he specially instructed me to make it as convenient as possible for you, and on the premise of preserving the lives of the majority, you could tolerate you doing something against order...... So, I wanted to give it a try. ”
After getting up, Xu Ye slowly walked a few steps forward, only a stone's throw away from Chen Bofu, and there was a kind of human indifference in his gentle voice.
"Order."
Xu Ye put her hands behind her waist, and Chen Jing saw her right hand suddenly move, and her white and slender index finger suddenly bent as if it had formed a handprint.
"Execution."
As the indifferent words of the preface fell, the floor under Chen Bofu's feet suddenly shattered, and dozens of chains floating with unknown totems drilled out like poisonous snakes, and with lightning speed, they were wrapped around Chen Bofu's rickety body layer by layer.
Almost instantly.
Chen Bofu disappeared without a trace.
Only a cocoon made of chains was left in the living room.
The black totems of unknown meaning were like some kind of lost ancient text, condensed into solids and suspended in chains like flies, constantly rotating around the cocoon......
"The chief of the prologue! Didn't we say goodbye ......before we came," Yu Yu looked at Xuye anxiously, her body trembling uncontrollably, and she didn't know if it was because she was scared or nervous, and even her voice was trembling.
"I just wanted to try him and see if he could get the right to break the order." Xu Ye still held his hands behind his back, and he still had that gentle smile on his face.
As she spoke, she suddenly turned her head to look at Chen Jing again.
"Chen Jing?"
“……”
"You don't look like your grandfather, and your foundation is also poor, did you pick it up?"
“……”
Why is this sentence again!
"What did you do to my grandfather?!"
At this moment, the anger in Chen Jing's heart was burning.
Although he also thinks that his grandfather is a dog, as a grandson, he really can't tolerate others doing something to his grandfather......
"Don't worry, just play."
Xu Ye gently lifted the corners of his mouth, and the look in his eyes was extremely gentle, but it was a pity that the words he said made Chen Jing feel cold to the bone.
"If your grandfather is weaker than the legend, then he will definitely die, but what about you...... I've seen your file and I'm not going to kill you. ”
As he spoke, Xuan Ye came to Chen Jing's side in a flash, and the speed was so fast that even Yu Yu couldn't see her movements clearly.
At this point, Chen Jing found that Xu Ye was very tall, and she was almost half a head taller than herself in high heels.
"You let my grandfather go first...... What do you have to say...... If it's because of the things of those who have atoned for ......"
"No, it's a lot of things, he's broken the order of the eternal night more than once."
Xuan Ye looked at the handsome young man in front of him, and a gentle smile always hung on his face.
I saw that she suddenly raised her hand, just like the sister next door, caressing Chen Jing's slightly soft hair.
"A good boy raised by an old madman...... How well-behaved...... Your file is so clean that I can't even pick out the problem......"
"Don't touch me!"
Chen Jing subconsciously used his arm to block Xuye's hand, listening to the sound of the chain cocoon beside him constantly tightening, and his heart was very anxious.
"You let my grandfather go first! I ......"
"Stay away from my grandson."
Suddenly, the old man's voice sounded very abruptly in the living room.
"Huh?"
Before he could look surprised, he turned his face back, only to see that the giant cocoon formed by chains suddenly sank, and at the place where those ancient totems like insects and flies converged, an extremely terrifying crack was suddenly torn from the inside.
Among the cracks.
It's a face that can't be fated beyond measure.
"Tell me something......
"What's the matter with scaring my good grandson......"
At the same time as the old man's voice sounded, an old and shriveled arm stretched out from the crack in the giant cocoon.
Although the speed seemed to be outrageously slow, Xu Ye couldn't dodge it strangely, and was directly firmly choked by the old man's neck.
"What to do with me, that's your council's business......"
"But if you want to deal with my only grandson......"
"I want to use my grandson as a bargaining chip......
"That's a bit too much......"
The old man's cold and cold tone seemed to be telling some kind of curse, and the murderous intent emanating from the cloudy old eyes was undisguised.
"I never joke about my grandson......"
"Listen up......"
"If something happens to him......"
"I'll let the whole Eternal Night Market accompany him to ...... funeral"
