If people can choose their own way of death, the answers must be rich and colorful. Some people hope to live longer, die without so much pain, and die in peace; some people hope to die heroically and with value, and die in military service throughout their lives.
The bones are buried in the battlefield and the mountains are green; there are also people who want to die in a romantic and poignant way, like sinking in the water under the moonlight, and as gorgeous as an epiphyllum.
But what I know for sure is that no one wants to die in shit, ever.
neverandever.
You may not understand what the above sentence means, but it doesn't matter. He Nan doesn't understand either, but he understands the previous sentence very well.
That's why he set up such a trap today.
At the moment, although Shi Xiaowen only faced He Nan and Wei Kui, he was far less calm than when he was rounded up by several people.
But this is not difficult to understand. After all, not everyone can laugh and talk to others while being hung on a cesspool with only half of their pants on.
"Boy, you plotted against me..." Shi Xiaowen gritted his teeth and looked up at He Nan. He couldn't see the other person's expression clearly, but he could see a smile through the firelight in the pipe.
"No..." He Nan coughed twice: "My stomach hurts a little, so I thought I could make it easier. I happened to see Brother Shi accidentally slipping into the manure pit, so I thought I would lend a helping hand to save you - you
If you don’t want to, forget it.”
Shi Xiaowen didn't accept his trick. He knew that He Nan couldn't help but show off how he did all this, so he kept silent - in this confrontation situation, whoever speaks first will lose the battle.
In addition, he can now use Qinggong to go up, but it is very likely that Wei Kui will kick him down from above. Anyway, the two chains of the judge's pen are hung firmly on the earth wall, so he can't fall down, right?
But then, He Nan did a very scary thing. He held the pipe in his mouth in his hand, and then slightly adjusted the direction of the pipe. In the pitch-black night, little sparks flew into the air.
Attention is like a soul-inducing lamp leading to the underworld, and the direction in which the sparks are spreading... is at Shi Xiaowen's feet.
Shi Xiaowen knew very well what would happen if there was an open fire here. Although He Nan only had burning tobacco in his hand, it was a clear threat. Who knew if this guy would light a fire and throw the paper in? So it was okay for him to be controlled by others.
Method: "Okay...how did you do it? I won't ask you why you can count which pit I squatted in, because you can manipulate all the pits - I mean, you
How do you know I will have a stomachache at this time?"
"Just poison..." He Nan smiled: "But this is my first time practicing, so the dose is a little lower - if you had left half an hour earlier, you wouldn't be hanging here on the swing.
Yes, but fortunately you lingered a little longer just to pretend to be drunk, otherwise you should have been able to meet Chai Sichou by now."
"Huh... judge a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart." Shi Xiaowen sneered. The tip-off was just his own inner thoughts and he had not taken any actual actions. Unless He Nan could read minds, there was no actual evidence.
: "Who said I was going to find Chai? It was too late for me to hide from him... I was plotted against by my own people even in the latrine. It seems that the treatment of me as a prisoner is not very good!"
"Stop talking nonsense...you come out in the middle of the night and bring weapons?" He Nan said with wide eyes.
Shi Xiaowen already had a countermeasure for this, and said angrily: "You still don't understand the principle of martial arts practitioners keeping their weapons close to their bodies? Besides, what does it have to do with you whether I carry a weapon or not? If I didn't carry a weapon, wouldn't I be dead by now?
Are you here?"
"So you know your current situation..." He Nan's face suddenly dropped: "So what if I, a bad guy, plotted against you, a good citizen?"
"If you want to die heroically and leave a good name in future generations, I will help you. As long as you are willing to die, then I will send you to the west now. But if you don't want to die, then tell everything you know...
Of course, I also have my own sources of intelligence, and as long as what you say is inconsistent with me, the outcome will be the same."
Just as He Nan was speaking, Wei Kui used his height and long arms to pull the tip of the judge's pen off the wall. He held the two chains in his hands. As long as he loosened Shi Xiaowen's body for a moment, he would pull them down again.
It was a little heavy, and Shi Xiaowen had to wrap the chain around his arm a few more times to prevent the other party from letting go or missing suddenly.
As for whether He Nan really mastered that much... the answer is no, but this is a game process. Since he now fully takes the initiative, he must transform this initiative into the value it deserves.
"I'll give you some time to think about it, but when I count to one, you have no chance at all - ten, nine, eight, five, four..."
"Wait! Where are six and seven?" Shi Xiaowen was confused. Is this guy not playing according to common sense?
He Nan smiled crookedly: "Am I not good at arithmetic? And I didn't say counting in order, right?"
Compared with physical punishment, this kind of "metaphysical" mental torture is undoubtedly more efficient in certain circumstances. Although Shi Xiaowen is not a tough guy, conventional means may not be effective if used against him.
"Holy shit, are you crazy? Forget it, I made a deal with you!" Every time He Nan read out a number, Wei Kui would pull the chain, but the most disturbing thing is that sometimes Wei Kui
He would lift it up, and then wait until the next number popped up before suddenly letting go...
"Huh..." Shi Xiaowen held his head high and exhaled, taking advantage of this time to clarify his thoughts: "If the number one assassin organization in the world is 'Liyuan', then the number two assassin organization in the world is
"Wu Yi", and Wu Yi is not as high-profile or as high-profile as Liyuan. Wu Yi only does two things-killing people and collecting money. Therefore, even many people in the world have never heard of the Wu Yi organization.
"
"The current leader of Wuyi is Brother Chai's father. In other words, the Wuyi organization was run by the Chai family from generation to generation. However, the founding time of Wuyi cannot be traced even by its members, and I am
One of them, and still is today.”
"You don't need to ask me where Wuyi's base is or who the other members are - you will understand after I finish talking. There are many people like me who are wandering outside under the banner of the organization. The organization issues tasks to us.
Then we complete it in our own name, and occasionally we will take on some private work, but this is not important. What is important is that we have received many "long-term tasks", which is to devote ourselves to an organization as an individual and wait until the organization needs it.
When we take action, most of the time we use the power of the 'parasitized' organization to achieve a certain purpose. Occasionally, we will rely on our identity to get rid of a certain person in the organization, but afterward, we will continue to lurk or escape.
That depends on the situation.”
"To sum up - I don't know where Wu Yi's base is at all, because I am from Chai Sichou, not from the Chai family, and the members I know, the more outstanding ones, I
I’ve already mentioned it.”
Taking advantage of Shi Xiaowen's pause, He Nan intervened and asked: "Then what is the 'mission' you have obtained now? Stay here with us and then chop off my dog's head with a knife when the time is right as you said.
What?"
Shi Xiaowen also admired He Nan's ability to weave himself into rubbish. He shook his head and said: "No... it's that foreign chamber of commerce. I was ordered to stay there to monitor the movements of these foreigners, but when I am in the world
When the heroes met Brother Chai at the meeting, they knew that my mission was aborted - being caught by you can only be said to be bad luck, otherwise I would have escaped far away from here by now."
"Oh?" He Nan was not trying to be mysterious, but was really puzzled: "According to what you said, you should be a very respected brother of Chai Sichou. I don't know what the order of succession of the Chai family is, but for now
Hypothetically - if one day Chai Sichou inherits the entire 'Wu Yi', wouldn't a confidant and hero like you return to the organization? So in my opinion, if what you say is true - you don't have one at all
You must escape from the city, but first secretly meet up with Chai Sichou - at least see if he can use you in the meeting of heroes, right?"
"Haha... It seems that He Fucheng is still too young..." Shi Xiaowen suddenly called out a title that he should not know at all, but the content was meaningful: "If one day you become powerful... you will
Let your subordinates who have been doing dirty work until you are notorious stand by your side openly and openly - the impact on your reputation is not ordinary..."
What is unexpected is that He Nan did not react at all to the word "Fu Cheng", as if he did not hear it. His attention fell on the second half of Shi Xiaowen's sentence: "So... Chai Sichou has the ability to aspire to the Central Plains."
Ambition?"
"..." Shi Xiaowen knew that he had made a mistake, so he was silent for a moment and asked: "Which person like him would not?"
He Nan laughed silently twice: "You continue."
Shi Xiaowen hung in this stinky manure pit for about half an hour, while He Nan and Wei Gui stayed here together for half an hour, until the other party seemed to have nothing to say and started talking about the wheel in a different way.
, He Nan released Shi Xiaowen.
The feeling of his legs returning to the ground made Shi Xiaowen feel tears filling his eyes - he looked at his arms that had been marked by the iron chains, and never thought that standing on the ground would feel so reassuring.
, and what He Nan said next made him have a feeling of "did I hear wrongly?"
"Okay, that's it for today, we're going back to sleep - it's up to you, whether you want to stay here or go to Chai Sichou's place, or whether you go there and come back later, it's up to you." After that, he said.
Nan Ju actually walked back to the inn with Wei Kui and went back to the guest room upstairs to rest. Shi Xiaowen was left standing there alone for a long time not knowing what to do.
He Nan's behavior cannot be said to be ungenerous, but if you think about its purpose carefully, it cannot be said to be evil.
He knew that Shi Xiaowen still had reservations, but the information he had obtained was enough in his opinion, and he was not in a hurry to learn the rest - but how should Shi Xiaowen face Chai Sichou after he returned?
?Is he telling Chai Sichou truthfully that he was forced to tell something about him, 70% true, 20% false, and 100% concealed secret? But will Chai Sichou really believe it? But if Shi Xiaowen doesn't tell Chai Sichou what he confessed tonight
Everything is hidden in his own heart - then is Shi Xiaowen still the Shi Xiaowen who is loyal to Chai Sichou? If Chai Sichou knows everything one day in the future, how should he deal with himself and how should he deal with his former brother?
…………
A hundred years later, people found scraps about He Nan from unofficial histories. Based on these historical materials and legends, which were both false and true, He Nan was given a rather appropriate title by later generations.
Between saints.
