Chapter 24 The Fact of Leaving
"I'm very satisfied with your respect for time. If you say three days, it means three days!"
The distance was less than ten steps, but he was much calmer today.
Could it be that there was a deception in the pavilion? How could he not be afraid in the face of danger?
A bad premonition came out of nowhere, and Ma Jingqian did not dare to take it lightly. His eyes wandered everywhere, especially in the dark corners.
But now Wu Huai suddenly laughed when he saw Jing Qian like this.
"I know you are not someone to take things for granted, but being so reserved is a far cry from your past. I still like how proud you are!"
"Master Huai is exempted! I don't dare to be arrogant. Who else is the most qualified person in the red flower forest to be arrogant besides Master Huai?"
As soon as Jing Qian finished speaking, Wuhuai smiled, and there was an indescribable feeling in his narrowed eyes.
He picked up the bowl of tea and sent it down in one gulp, clapped his hands on his knees and shook his head, saying: "Well, it's good to know..."
The words that were so understated that you couldn't even hear what he was saying seemed to contain a huge murderous aura in an instant. At this moment, Jing Gan felt a chill all over his body, but he still didn't know where this feeling came from.
Ma Jingqian said nothing, and when he was about to step forward, the tea bowl that Wu Huai was about to bring to his mouth suddenly stopped.
Then Wu Huai simply stopped drinking the tea and looked at Jing Gan with a smile, pointing to the wicker chair next to him to signal to sit down.
Ma Jingqian felt that something was not right about the atmosphere today. He carefully moved the wicker chair in front of him and slowly sat down. During this period, his eyes did not relax for a moment.
His fearful look was still seen by Wuhuai. As for how to face the next problem, Jingqian felt that it was no longer a matter of a contract.
From the moment he entered the yard until now, the conspicuous contract has been placed there, but what is strange is that Wu Huai, who has always been unambiguous about the murder business, did not mention the contract today!
"The thing didn't work out. It was the people from Wu She Tang who messed up the matter. I still want the money!"
"Huh? Let's not talk about that today!" Wu Huai clapped his hands, and a follower bent over and brought a plate.
Wu Huai raised his hand and took off the red cloth on the plate. What was placed on the plate was four hundred taels of silver that were visible to the naked eye!
Jingqian felt a little strange when he saw it. He didn't know whether Wu Huai took the wrong medicine or did it on purpose.
The question in his heart was originally about to be raised, but Wu Huai suddenly put the silver on the table and said: "You need to eat and drink these silver as much as you want. My memory is still very good. I remember telling you last time that with you There will be less and less contact!”
Jingqian didn't know whether the purpose of presenting a plate of four hundred taels of grain silver was good or bad, but the murderous intent in those words frightened Jingqian.
"According to the contract, if there is no news for half a month, it will be regarded as a failure, and the price of the failure is clearly written on it. I will draw the pledge myself!"
As he spoke, he angrily took out his contract from his arms and slapped it on the table, and continued: "It's a rule in the industry. If I don't succeed, if I cross that blindfolded stone road, even if my bones are broken into pieces, my body will be shattered." Don’t be afraid either!”
"Tsk, tsk, are you really a hero?" Wuhuai's words were somewhat mocking, and when the real money and silver were placed on the table, his face showed even more contempt.
"Blindfolded Shidao is either dead or alive. For a person like you, even if he dies, how big of a storm will there be in the world?"
However, what Wuhuai said is true. Although it is a bit harsh, it is the fact.
Although the world is no longer what it used to be, Jing Qian felt very uncomfortable hearing these words. Rather than being slandered like this, it would be better to go to the blindfolded stone road and go through it. If you die, it will be over. If you survive, there is still a chance of turning back. There are many.
He slapped the case and stood up, just about to pull out the knife.
"I respect that you are older than me, so I call you Lord Huai. Otherwise, Ding Ding's sword will not recognize anyone's status in the world. Do you think I don't know the tricks you use secretly?"
Wuhuai has been able to control Mincheng for several years. How can the status of Hutoutai be shaken by these rats? Now he is holding the throne of Honghualin, and before all the trump cards are revealed, Jingqian is already blushing. He became more and more calm.
"I gave you a chance once! Yes, I regretted it. It was me who notified the people of Wu Shetang and ruined the assassination operation, but so what? I gave you a cheap life in exchange for those beasts in Mincheng to think that I compromised. Very soon worth!"
It turns out that the contract that really caused this failure was originally a ploy by Wuhuai. After learning the truth, Ma Jingqian has become a tool.
Wuhuai held up the tea steadily, looked at Jingqian seriously and said: "You are good at martial arts, and you should come to work for me, but do you know why I am far away from you? It's because your backbone has grown all over your body, Just open your mouth and I will know that what you want in the end is not just a few bad dollars, Ma Jinggan!"
Damn, how did he know the name?
Ma Jingqian was suddenly startled. Now that he had been seen through, what was Wu Huai's intention?
In a rage, Ma Jingqian couldn't stand Wuhuai's abuse anymore and said sternly: "Working for you? Killing for you, seeking your throne as the emperor, what else are you going to do? Is it true that everyone in the world should die, but you are the ones who are alive? These insensitive beasts? As the leader of Hutoutai, where is your conscience? Where is your benevolence and righteousness?"
"Very good! I don't hate you anymore when I see you like this!"
Wu Huai squinted his eyes and suddenly laughed, and he slowly sat up from the Taishi chair.
"Conscience, you and I don't have to talk about it. I am not qualified, and you are even less qualified! Regarding benevolence and righteousness, I want to laugh when I hear it. I am afraid that there are some things that you don't even know until now. Who is benevolent and who is righteous just talk about it? Then why don’t you go to Xiongzhen?”
"I…"
After being scolded, Jing Gan didn't say a word in reply, because he had already doubted himself when the word benevolence and righteousness was thrown out.
Wuhuai sneered and said: "I'd better tell you! Otherwise, you won't be buried in the ground one day and you won't know how futile your life has been in this world! Don't you have any idea about the so-called city of benevolence and righteousness? You thought you had preserved your reputation for benevolence and righteousness by running away from Xiongzhen, but you didn’t know that a man named Xu Yuan had come to Mincheng to put a hat on you!”
The past was awakened again, and the five locust trees came one by one, and the painful past kept creeping into my mind.
"Actually, to be honest, if a leader of a large gang gives orders, there will be several people to refute him. You have lived for so long and you should understand better than anyone else. Even if Xiongzhen has 10,000 Xu Yuan, as long as he doesn't have Who would have the power to make such a decision?"
