Chapter XXXIII. Brothers against each other
When Di Baotian said this, his expression was still unshocked, and there was almost no difference from the knowing smile of reuniting old friends before, but because this sentence was said so smoothly, it made me feel a chill. Maybe it's true, as he said, that part of the "unawakened" person in his mouth, or maybe he is just as I said, because he has experienced the outside world from a relatively ignorant environment, so he can't distinguish the reality at the moment, at least the reality in our country.
So when I heard this sentence, I couldn't help but exert force in my hand and grabbed the scimitar in my hand. I'm not a murderer, the main function of that scimitar is to slash ghosts rather than living people, so at the moment it is the only weapon on my body that can be used to blackmail the other party, and the object of blackmail is undoubtedly Di Baotian, my brother for many years.
The implication of his words is very clear, since we know the truth of this matter today, there is no way to get out of it. We have no more than two choices, one is to comply with him and his superiors, and even help Di Baotian find that water god beast. The second is simpler, the more you know, the faster you die, and perhaps after this conversation, it's time for us to say goodbye to the world.
I will certainly not agree to his request, even if it is for the sake of compromise, I will not be able to bow down to such a force. Like Di Baotian, I was born in the most chaotic era in China, but when we began to have the ability to discriminate, it was already a red day of liberation, so we can also be regarded as a generation with strong ideological roots, and I would rather die than do this kind of thing of turning my back on my own country. Then I'm left with the second option, and obviously I'm not going to give in easily, and even if I lose in the end, I'm going to have to cause them a little bit of trouble. Di Baotian and I grew up together, and his personality is the clearest of me, but fortunately, over the years, I have never changed, and he is no longer the person I knew when I was a child.
When I think about the past, I soften my heart a little. After all, when I look back on my life one day, the earth and the sky occupy most of the place in my childhood memories. So I opened my mouth and said to the earth, brother, I am still calling you brother at this time, to persuade you to get lost and return to your way, and stop being obsessed. Although the world is not good now, we must not forget our roots, if there is no country, there will be no everything you and now. Didn't you join the army to defend your family and the country? Now that you have become a pawn of our class enemy, how would your dead father feel if he knew about it? One day in the future, the second uncle knows that his nephew has become like this, what kind of eyes do you want him to spend the rest of his life under the eyes of others?
I began to play some emotional cards, intending to make Di Baotian think more about his family, but when I said these words, I also knew that it was futile, because the way of exhortation is always suitable for those who still have reason in their hearts, and Di Baotian's smiling expression and indifferent heart may not be something that I can change in a few words. I also tried to swap places with him in this short period of time to think, as the saying goes, there is no turning back when the string is opened, and I also know deeply the consequences of hesitation, so I also know that if I am the earth, I am afraid that I will not be able to come back at this moment.
Di Baotian heard me say this, smiled and shook his head, and then said to me, I did this, even if it failed, but also held the determination to die, I thought that our brothers in this life, I am afraid that there is no chance to meet again, but in such a situation to reunite, it is also a regret in my heart, I have no parents since I was a child, although the second uncle is like my own son to me, but I am still very lonely. Fortunately, you have always taken care of me when I was a child, but unfortunately in the end, we met again in this way.
Di Baotian paused, then sighed and said, Brother Situ, don't persuade me, if this is the fate of our brotherhood, we can't change it. You are a believer, so follow your fate.
I was so chilled and sad that I stood up with my scimitar in my hand, and put it in my pocket, along with the pistol I had just taken from Earth. Then I put my hands in my trouser pockets and said to the ground, then in this case, we don't need to say more, you have been the person who knows my temperament best since I was a child, I am going to take this silly girl and my little brother out now, if you can stop me, you can try it. As long as I leave this courtyard, I can assure you that none of your conspiracies will succeed, and not only that, but the fate of your group will not be good. In the past, I might have saved you, but now it seems that there is no need for this, and even if I wanted to save you, you may not appreciate it.
As I said this, I silently squeezed the hand in my trouser pocket, and immediately after saying that, I silently recited the incantation in my mind, intending to summon the soldiers. Because there is no doubt that Bao Tian will deal with the three of us in the current situation, I am not a person who can be caught with my hands tied, and when I am discouraged, I can't think of brotherhood, at this moment I want to end Bao Tian with my own hands, so that it can be regarded as removing a big trouble for the country.
At this moment, I can conclude that among all the people present, except for me and Da Mao, who are from the Xuanmen, everyone else does not understand the occult arts. At first, I kept dodging in order not to startle the snake, but now it seems that there is no need for this, with my little skill alone, it should not be a problem to leave this place with Da Mao and the silly girl, I decided not to show mercy anymore, no matter who is waiting to stop us, whether it is the earth or the accomplices of the thugs outside, even including the woman, no matter who it is, I will no longer show mercy to my subordinates, and let the soldiers and horses play on their own.
But the strange thing is that when I summoned the soldiers and horses, they had just been released, and they immediately drilled back, I have never encountered such a situation, in order to be able to transcend as soon as possible, the five rampant soldiers and horses will definitely do what I ordered, but this has just come out and drilled back, that day I encountered such a situation for the first time. So I tried a few more times, but every time it was like this, which made me feel very strange, the so-called from the heart, maybe the doubts in my heart at this moment but on my face, coincidentally, every time I released the soldiers, there would be a strange smile on the face of the earth, as if I had seen everything, and had already taken precautions.
I began to be a little frightened, and I couldn't help but start to look at the environment in the room, but as far as my eyes could see, I didn't feel anything unusual, and Di Baotian stood motionless and looked at me, looking fearless, which made me even more confused. Terracotta is the only means I can use to protect myself at the moment, and other than that, there is only brute force left, because I may have spells and charms against ghosts, and I have no advantage against living people except terracotta. At this time, Di Baotian stretched out his hand and pointed to my hand in his trouser pocket, and then asked, Brother Situ, were you putting some ghosts out just now?
I didn't speak, my heart was anxious, and I released the soldiers and horses again and again, and the result was the same every time. Di Baotian continued, why do you think I don't go to the ghost market to trade ghosts with the master just now? It's because I'm scared too, but in this room, I'm not afraid, I have already asked someone to take care of the house before I moved in, no matter what kind of ghost and mystic magic it is, it won't work here. I was shocked, but I didn't want to believe it, and in a hurry, I looked at Da Mao, who still maintained his previous posture, hugging the shivering silly girl. I looked at Da Mao's meaning, it was to let him hurry up and think of some tricks, even if it was to give the earth a look, I would immediately rush up and repeat the old tricks, and I wanted to coerce him to go out, but my brother for many years tore his face once, and I had no way out, I could only tear it to the end.
But Da Mao's eyes were very desperate, and when he met my eyes, he shook his head slightly, and then put his face on the top of the silly girl's head. I got angry all of a sudden because I was in a hurry, and shouted at Da Mao, stinky boy, why are you standing stupidly? Is this where you fall in love? Hurry up and do something, let's get out! When I said the last sentence, I couldn't hide the anxiety in my heart, and I almost roared to say it. Da Mao said to me lightly, Brother Shankong, it's useless, the walls here are almost covered with all kinds of spells, and this room is like a cage, and no occult magic can be cast.
Da Mao's heavenly eyes can see far more than me, if it is really as he said, then in this room, we can only be controlled by people. But I looked around, but I didn't find a single visible spell. Da Mao told me that these spells are glowing, indicating that it is effective, and the reason why you can't see it is because the spells drawn in this room are not painted with ink and other things, but are smeared with a kind of blood similar to spiders and other poisons mixed with animal ashes.
Of course I've heard of this kind of spell, but I've never encountered it, so it's really desperate this time, and I've even invited a master to deal with this room, no wonder none of my soldiers and horses can get out. So I reached into my bag and took out a scimitar, and rushed towards Di Baotian again, although I have a gun in my bag, but I don't know how to use it, Di Baotian is a person from the army, and he can see through me at once.
But just when I rushed towards him, suddenly Bao Tian stretched his hand behind his waist at a very fast speed, and quickly pulled out a pistol, but it was not aimed at me, but put a shot on the ground in front of Da Mao and the silly girl, and suddenly there was a loud bang in the small room, I was so frightened by this sudden sound that I quickly stopped, turned my head to look at Da Mao, and found that the two of them were safe and sound, and there was a bullet mark on the ground after being hit by a bullet.
The muzzle of the gun was still pointed at Da Mao and the silly girl, but his eyes were looking at me, and there was still a trace of white smoke coming from the barrel, but his eyes were full of indifference and contempt.
