Chapter 5: Late at Night
Traveling through is not always fun, especially when she realizes that what she has learned in the past doesn't work here.
- In the past, she was proficient in firearms, and it was clear that this skill was not even as good as cooking here.
In the past, she was proficient in assassination, but the killers in this world were far more terrifying than he imagined, not to mention all kinds of bizarre martial arts, and light skills had already made her unattainable.
She vaguely remembers that in the past, it was a civilized world, everything had to rely on evidence and the law, if you wanted to kill him "tooth for tooth, blood for blood", then you would also become a murderer.
Revenge is certainly not the best solution to the problem, but it is the most direct and effective solution, and it is always better than watching the wicked go unpunished.
But the world is different.
This is a very refreshing world, the reincarnation of heaven, good and evil are rewarded, you don't need to open your eyes, you can take revenge, revenge is a natural thing, it is like engraved in everyone's mind, no one will question it, and no one will object.
She lives in this world now, and she will eventually integrate into this world, because she is a person who has revenge in her bones.
Night is approaching.
There are lights on the table, dim lights.
The figure of the fifth small building has disappeared into the shadows, and in the darkness she stares at Li Fenggu with a pair of shining eyes, and her flickering eyes are full of an indescribable sadness.
She suddenly remembered that day, remembered those people, and finally thought of herself.
Li Fenggu held the cup and stared, and suddenly opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but his mouth opened but he didn't say a word, and then he slowly closed his mouth, his eyes were filled with a very complex feeling, and his knuckles were rhythmically tapping on the table.
It's like contemplation, and it's like you're making a very difficult decision.
After a long time, his movements suddenly stopped, he raised his head and frowned, staring straight into the depths of the fifth Xiaolou's eyes, his voice low and hoarse.
"Promise me one thing, okay?"
He had a lot to say, but in the end he only made one request.
Li Fenggu rarely asks for help, and Wu Xiaolou has never seen him ask for others, let alone ask for himself.
She was taken aback and blurted out, "What's the matter?"
"With your qualifications, plus my recommendation, you will definitely be accepted as a disciple by Li Wangjian. Li Fenggu shook his head slowly, "But Xiao Fu has neither the qualifications of you, nor the maturity of his personality, I am afraid that he will encounter a lot of dangers in the rivers and lakes." ”
The fifth small building was silent.
She now expected that Li Fenggu would explain something to her, and she was ready to agree, after all, after living together for so long, she had already regarded this family as a relative, even if Li Fenggu didn't say it, she would do it.
It's just that there seems to be something wrong with this atmosphere, and I don't know if it's because I mentioned the incident five years ago, this atmosphere is too dull and too sad, as if I am supporting myself.
"Help me take care of my little troubles. ”
"Good!"
Even Li Fenggu noticed that the atmosphere was a little heavy, so he smiled and changed the subject: "And your secret, when are you going to let Xiao Fu know?"
Fifth Xiaolou scratched his already red face, and smiled reluctantly: "Let's talk about it then."
At that time, it will not be so easy to explain, but it is not so simple to explain now, maybe it will cause an immeasurable blow to Li Fu's young mind.
On the way back to the room, the cold wind blew non-stop.
The fifth small building walked briskly, and quickly slowed down, slowly stopping in place, she always seemed to feel that Uncle Li and Aunt Li's expressions were a little unusual, and the itinerary to Songshan Chunyang was too urgent, could it be that she was avoiding something?
Thinking of this, she raised her head suddenly, and then found Li Fu lying on the fence of the corridor in the distance, looking at her with a smile.
Li Fu opened his throat and shouted at her, "Is the northwest wind delicious?"
The fifth Xiaolou glanced at him, and said angrily: "It's dark, what are you still hanging around outside, why don't you hurry up and go back to the room to sleep!"
Li Fu immediately shrank his head and ran to her, looked around awkwardly, and then asked, "What did my father tell you?"
"You don't understand anyway. The fifth Xiaolou glanced at him out of the corner of his eye and walked towards his room.
She walked in front, and Li Fu followed her as usual, constantly breaking her mouth.
"Brother. ”
The fifth small building ignored him.
"Brother Xiaolou. ”
Still ignored it, but Li Fu didn't see any discouragement, because it wasn't the first time he had done this kind of thing.
"Small, Lou, Brother, Brother"
The fifth Xiaolou couldn't help but shudder, and his steps couldn't help but speed up.
Every time she is annoyed, she will sigh in her heart, it is really important to choose a good name, although she does not live in a small building, but Li Fu is really annoying!
followed all the way to the door of the room in the fifth small building, and Li Fu was still talking nonsense.
The fifth Xiaolou stood on the threshold, and finally couldn't help but turn sharply to face him.
Li was stunned and looked at her.
The fifth Xiaolou gritted his teeth and said, "You can, go back to sleep!"
Li scratched his head in annoyance, and stopped talking: "Actually"
Before he finished this sentence, the fifth small building immediately retreated into the room as soon as he heard him, closed the door with a "bang", and then closed the latch with a "cluck".
Li was stunned again and looked at the door.
The fifth small building roared through the door: "If you say one more word, I will beat you up!"
Li Fu didn't believe in this evil, and said, "However, I forgot to take something in your room." ”
The fifth small building did not answer, and suddenly opened the door, and his eyes erupted into flames and glared at Li Fu.
Li Fu turned his head and ran away very decisively, he didn't want to be beaten now, and he didn't want to be beaten for nothing because of his cheap mouth.
He didn't dare to shout until he ran into the distance and saw that the fifth small building didn't catch up, "It should have fallen behind the desk, you can help me bring it tomorrow!"
"Sleep your sleep!"
"Bang!"
Then there was no sound, Li Fu looked over, and saw that there was not even a light in the room, so he had to scratch his head and prepare to go back to his room to sleep, thinking: Brother Xiaolou should remember, right? Why don't you go and see it tomorrow morning?
With his memory, it would be difficult to say with certainty what would happen tomorrow morning.
The night was late and the wind was sharper.
There was a broken lamp in the bedroom, and it seemed to be going out.
The fifth small building didn't even take off his clothes and lay on the bed, he couldn't sleep anyway, so he simply closed his eyes and was in a daze.
In the past, when she was still him, she never turned on the light, because she believed that it was safer only in the dark.
But now it is different, now she is used to lighting the lamp to fall asleep, and the last ten years of the eldest lady's life have long since exhausted those habits of the past, because there is no need for her to maintain that dangerous habit during those ten years.
She now wants to pick up those long-forgotten habits, but it is impossible to do anything, from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, this reason is not difficult to understand.
The lights are flickering, and the remaining lights will be extinguished.
The fifth Xiaolou stood up, took out a pot of lamp oil from under the desk and put it on the table, then stretched out his arm and yawned deeply.
But at this moment!
The residual light suddenly went out, and under the moonlight, a figure immediately appeared on the window paper, and quickly turned over and swept away.
The fifth small building gasped, and its pupils kept shrinking--who's there? what do you want to do? Where are the guards?
She didn't ask any of this, because she knew it was best to pretend she didn't see anything now.
She held her breath and quietly pulled a dagger from under her pillow. (PS: The specific settings are basically unchanged, don't be too anxious)
