Chapter 40: Ruthless
"It's your business!" Fengyun was really in no mood to deal with the two of them now, he just wanted to be alone for a while at the moment, but he couldn't even get this bit of peace.
The ground began to rumble, the pool in front of him churned and bubbled, Li Yuan fiddled with the copper knife, and said with a strange smile: "As I expected, you will not hand over the method easily." However, that is not my purpose in the first place, let me die in peace!" With that, he shook his hand, and the copper knife flew towards the wind and clouds, not slowly, obviously hard work.
Fengyun frowned slightly, the cold light flashed in front of him, his pupils shrank, and the turbulent wind blocked the copper knife in front of him. Looking at the copper knife floating in the air, it was clearly the one that Li Greed took from him, could it be that this is what Li Greed meant?
The thought was just a turn, and it was dispelled by the wind and clouds, if Li Greed was so stupid, he would not have run with him to Chiyou City so happily.
The copper knife was easily blocked, and it couldn't hurt Fengyun at all, but Li Yi's face changed, and he shouted at Fengyun: "Throw that knife away!"
Dipping his finger and pinching the copper knife, Fengyun glanced at Li Yun and Li Yi, these two guys sang and harmonized, what did they have in mind?
The bubbles in the pool churned so hard that they were like boiling water, and suddenly, a rope flew out from under the surface of the water, and it was winding towards the wind and clouds, faster than lightning!
Caught off guard, Fengyun couldn't dodge, and was directly wrapped around his neck by the rope, he reached out to pull, and the slippery and sticky tentacles told him that it was not a rope, but a tongue!
The power of the Divine Yuan was vigorous, and the wind wall around him suddenly exploded! The howling wind swept with the wind blade, but it only made the tongue tremble, but it did not leave a single wound.
Desperately tearing his tongue, but it seemed to be coated with the most powerful glue, and the mucus was pulled up by the long silk thread, and then adhered back again, Fengyun took advantage of the copper knife and stuck a knife into the tongue. The owner of the tongue was in pain, pulled with great force, and the tongue flew towards the pond with the wind and clouds, and the rolling of the bubbles made the pond have become a swamp, and when the tongue retracted, a big mouth was raised under the mud pond, but it was a huge black toad with gold stripes on its back, and swallowed the wind and clouds in one gulp!
The dark and sharp webbed claws brushed away the mud, and the toad slowly sank down, its three-strand golden pupils shining with an indifferent fierce light behind its eyelids.
"Why did you let him be eaten by the Heaven Swallowing Golden Toad so easily?" Li Yi couldn't help but turn his head and said angrily at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Is this how you talk to the future patriarch?"
"I'm ......" Li Yi was stunned, and choked for a while.
Li Yuan stared at the slowly sinking Heaven Devouring Golden Toad, and said with a sneer: "Do you think I really care if I can't activate the magic power? Without the magic power, I am still the future lord of the Jiuli Kingdom! I just want to kill him this time." ”
"Why?" Li Yi was puzzled, he was confused by Li Yuan, saying that he was the one who coerced and lured, and he was the one who killed people, what did he do?
Li Yuan looked at him and smiled, although he was short, he had a condescending momentum, Li Yi vaguely really had a feeling of facing Li Greed, and he couldn't help but suffocate and couldn't speak.
With his hands behind his back, Li Yuan said, "Uncle Yi, the reason why I am looking for you this time is nothing more than for the sake of you and me. In the entire Li tribe, only you can understand how miserable it is to be a person who is not favored by the ancestors. ”
Li Yi opened his mouth, but fell silent, Li Yuan's words were on his heart!
Li Yuan continued: "The others only saw you enter the hunting team as a non-witch war, but they didn't know how much you had suffered for it. I've seen you when you come back from a solo hunting trip in the snow season to have your wounds bandaged, and you don't dare to interrupt a day's training in order to stay in the hunting team. But do you know how ridiculous your behavior seems to me?"
"Yes...... Ridiculous?!" Li Yi clenched his fists.
Li Yuan chuckled lightly and said, "That's right, ridiculous! You blindly pursue personal strength, this is putting the cart before the horse! No matter how strong your personal strength is, you must also succumb to power, and right is the most powerful force in the world!" Taking a step forward, he said loudly: "Do you know that the hunting team you have maintained wholeheartedly can be disbanded with a single word? Do you know that the prey you have hunted for so hard is eaten by the clansmen, but they are singing the praises of the kindness of the patriarch and the Great Witch?" Isn't it ridiculous that you are blades, seemingly powerful, but wielded only by those who have control?"
Shaking his head, Li Yi clenched his fists and said: "I joined the hunting team so that the clansmen would no longer starve, and it is precisely because of this that the hunting team will be supported by the clansmen......
"Really?" Li Yuan smiled: "Are you really willing? Haven't you complained in your heart, why did Lao Tzu hunt prey for you desperately, while you enjoyed it in the city? Could it be that Lao Tzu worked so hard just to be a coolie for you? Why can't Lao Tzu get more?" Li Yuan's every word was like a heavy hammer, the hammer buzzed in Li Yi's brain, making him can't help but fall backwards.
He said bitterly as he retreated: "Don't say it, it's not like this, I don't think so......"
Li Yuan pressed step by step, and said temptingly: "Admit it! That's what you think, you want more, you want a higher status, easier work, and more beautiful women, it's normal." That's why you promised me to deal with me with you. You got the Heavenly Swallowing Golden Toad's favorite spirit moth powder, and you also wiped it on that knife with your own hands, and when I put the knife against his neck, you didn't stop it, but you denied it, did you want to make up for the guilt in your heart?"
was broken through by Li Yuan's words step by step, Li Yi couldn't hold it anymore, he pressed his head and said: "No, I didn't want to kill him at all, I just wanted him to help me activate my magic power, I didn't want to kill him from the beginning......"
With the smile of the victor, Li Yuan raised his head and said, "You don't have to panic, it's just that you killed a foreigner, no one will blame you, my father has me to deal with it." Moreover, this is the greatest good you can do for your people. ”
Li Yi's mind was completely confused, and the six gods were taken by Li Yuan without a master, and asked one after another, "Why?"
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you know? In just a few days after the storm and clouds woke up, how much change has taken place in the clan? In addition to the salt this time, he also got a kind of rice, which is said to be quite abundant, and the patriarch and the great witch have already intended to mobilize agricultural resources to cultivate with all their might, and the hunting team will not be able to keep it all turned into mud legs by then." Moreover, do you know what the real purpose of the tens of thousands of people in exchange for the old ministry is? Racial integration! To completely integrate the old Jiuyi tribe into our Li nationality within three generations, and to build a real Jiuli country! And what kind of parliamentary system I only heard my father talk about, it is impossible for someone who can come up with such a scheme to be of my use. If he is allowed to integrate the people of the old tribe, then I, the eldest son of the Li clan, will completely lose power! What is the lord of the Jiuli country, even the position of the patriarch may not be able to be kept! You have also seen it just now, he doesn't take me seriously at all, so why should I keep him?"
Listening to Li Yuan's words, Li Yi only felt a chill down his spine, this was the first time he had such a feeling, he looked at Li Yuan, slowly shook his head and said: "Yuan'er, you really scared me, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly have such a deep thought?"
Haha laughed, Li Yuan's eyes flashed a trace of imperceptible dark red blood, and said: "Uncle Yi, I trust you, so I will tell you so much, as long as you are willing to help me, I will be the lord of the country in the future, and ......I will definitely not forget your benefits!
Rumble!
Before Li Yuan's foaming cowhide was blown, a big bag suddenly bulged out under the mud pond, and it exploded in the blink of an eye. The muddy water mixed with flesh and blood flew into the sky, and then turned into a rain of blood and fell, pouring Li Yuan and Li Yi through in an instant.
The wind was surging, holding up the wind and clouds and floating in mid-air, looking at Li Yuan and Li Yi condescendingly.
"That'...... That's the royal vein of the winning clan......" Before Li Yi finished stammering, Li Yuan had already stepped forward, bowed down and said, "Uncle Feng, don't blame, my little nephew is joking with you, and I ask Uncle Feng to forgive me." ”
There was mucus mixed with blood on his body, Fengyun looked a little embarrassed, he was already not going well today, he was on fire in his belly, and he was even more angry at the moment. He stared at Li Yuan and said, "You are really fast? You are so vicious at a young age, and you can still get it when you grow up? Why did Li Yuan give birth to such a scourge as you? Today I will cut off your feet and let you have a longer memory!"
As soon as the words fell, Li Yuan nodded and said: "Yuan'er provokes uncle unpleasantly, he should be punished, don't let uncle do it, Yuan'er will come by himself." With that, he suddenly pulled out a stone knife from his bosom, shook his hand twice, and the blood flashed, and with a pop, he knelt on the ground, and he had already broken the hamstrings of his legs.
Sweating from the pain, he didn't scream, but smiled and asked, "Uncle is still relieved?"
Rao is Fengyun also gasped, in the two memories, true and false, he has never seen such a ruthless character, he is not even eight years old! He is so ruthless, or to himself! And just this time, he has turned passive into active, turning Fengyun into a party that is at fault, saving his own life, this kid, so scheming!
Staring at his eyes, Li Yuan just smiled apologetically, and didn't speak, just waiting for Fengyun to react, and forced Fengyun to the intersection, and he had to make a choice.
Fengyun has only two ways to choose, either directly kill the mouth and kill the two of them, anyway, no one will see it, and there is no proof of death, but if Li Greedy Jiang Xiang has any means to find out that he killed him, then all his preparatory work and system tasks in the early stage will be in vain. Either he chooses to turn the page, Li Yuan has already punished himself, and he has already paid the price, he can open the net, spare his life, and see each other in the future......
Li Yuan's kid is gambling with his life!
As for Li Yi, he was tearing the sackcloth to help Li Yuan bandage his wounds at this moment, and he had been completely excluded from this clash of wisdom.
How do you choose? Let him go, or kill him, what's the point of killing him?
What's the point?
Does it make sense?
Significance?
What is the significance of those tangled things? What is the significance of Li Yuan's death or not? Whether the tasks of the system are completed or not, whether the life span is increased or subtracted, what is the significance to him now?
It was as if a yellow bell was ringing in his head, and Fengyun seemed to be empowered, and for a moment he felt that he was so happy that he didn't even look at Li Yuan, and flew out of the sky.
With a sigh of relief, Li Yuan collapsed on the ground, sweat already soaking through his chest and back.
