A glimmer of hope flashed in Hua Guoan's eyes, and he suddenly realized it and said with a smile: "Yes, it's you!"
Ye Han was still a little confused. When Shen Quan'an saw this, he immediately whispered something in Ye Han's ear. After listening, the corners of his eyes raised and a smile appeared on his lips.
However, a few people did not act immediately. Instead, they worked with Tie Zongheng's men to lift the Shennong Cauldron up with difficulty.
Tie Zongheng stood far away. Since his view was blocked by the Shennong Cauldron, he did not see the subtle movements on that side. But what made him taboo most was Hua Guoan and Shen Quan'an's ability, which they had not experienced for decades. They were old acquaintances and had shared the same sorrows. He knew very well that if he got too close, it would be difficult for him to escape with Shen Quan'an's hidden weapon techniques.
Therefore, Tie Zongheng followed him from a distance all the way, urging everyone behind him. As long as he held Hua Pinting in his hands, he had no worries about Hua Guoan and others not complying.
Ye Han, Wang Kun, Hua Guoan, and Shen Quan'an, together with the other three men brought by Tie Zongheng, carried the heavy Shennong tripod together and walked on the slippery ice, which was very difficult.
After walking forward for a few meters, everyone was exhausted and panting. Suddenly, the Shennong Cauldron fell directly on the ice, and everyone collapsed on the ground, gasping for air.
"Get up! Get up! Move it out quickly, otherwise, I will kill her!" Tie Zongheng was afraid that Shen Quanan, Hua Guoan, Ye Han, Wang Kun and others were playing some tricks, so he immediately stood in the distance shouted.
"No, this cauldron is too heavy. I'm an old person and I'm afraid I'll have to rest for a while." Shen Quanan said.
Tie Zongheng didn't know how heavy the Shennong Cauldron was. Looking at the man slumped on the ground, he didn't know what to do. If he kept forcing him, it would be counterproductive.
"Okay, you guys rest for a while first, and then you can lift her up again after your rest." Tie Zongheng held Hua Pinting hostage and stood far away, but did not get close.
After everyone rested for a while, they began to work hard to lift the Shennong Cauldron. Less than two meters away, Shen Quan'an suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground. The Shennong Cauldron also immediately fell backwards, directly pressing on the walking cauldron. On the last three minions, the three minions suddenly felt a burst of difficulty. Two of them reacted quickly and immediately withdrew their hands and dodged to the side. This was very painful for the last person, Shennong, who weighed several hundred kilograms. Ding directly pressed on his body, and his whole body was so crushed that he vomited blood and continued to slide down along the slippery ice surface.
Tie Zongheng was shocked when he saw the Shennong Cauldron pressing down on the man and sliding towards him. The cave was already very narrow at this point. He didn't even think that such a big cauldron would slide down. Way to dodge.
At this critical moment, Tie Zongheng looked up with a miner's lamp and saw that the cave was relatively high, so he jumped up to avoid the impact of the Shennong tripod sliding down.
He held Hua Pinting's waist with one hand, stepped on the cave wall with his feet, and flew into the air.
At this moment, two screams suddenly came from below. The two minions he had brought were killed by Hua Guoan and Wang Kun with one palm strike. Countless rays of cold light also shot towards him in an instant.
Tie Zongheng was taken aback, and hurriedly kicked the cave wall with his feet, turning his body to one side. Then his legs spread wide, split into a straight line, and stuck directly on the stone wall without falling. He held Hua Hua in one hand. Bin Ting was holding a miner's lamp in her other hand, and her movements were very inconvenient. After escaping the disaster, he hurriedly used the miner's lamp in his hand to shine downwards, but saw Hua Guoan, Shen Quanan, and Wang Kun watching eagerly, with someone lying next to him. There are two corpses.
"Is there another person?" Tie Zongheng was startled.
Suddenly, there was a burst of pain in the wrist where he was holding Hua Pinting. Her wrist seemed to have been cut by a sharp knife, and a stream of blood spurted out from the blood vessels on her wrist. He screamed, and when he released his left hand, he was holding her hostage. Hua Pinting fell instantly. By the time he reacted and was about to catch her, it was already too late. At the same time, a sharp blade was inserted directly into his back, and he screamed. With a sound, it fell directly from the cave wall.
On the ground, Hua Guoan, Shen Quan'an, and Wang Kun had already taken action. Wang Kun took the lead to catch Hua Pinting, then hugged Hua Pinting, turned around and ran towards the outside of the cave. Shen Quan'an, Hua Guoan, Then they attacked Tie Zongheng one after another and directly caught Tie Zongheng who fell down. One person grabbed one of his arms and exerted force, directly breaking Tie Zongheng's arms.
"Ah..." Tie Zongheng screamed, his arms were broken, and he was restrained by Hua Guoan and Shen Quan'an, with his face pressed against the ice.
Ye Han fell from the dark cave wall and saw that Tie Zongheng's arms were disabled, and he was subdued by Hua Guoan and Shen Quanan, and the sharp blade was still stuck on his back, so he asked: "What's next? How to do?"
"Kill him!" Shen Quanan said angrily.
Hua Guoan shook his head and said: "I've had grievances for decades, and I didn't realize it until today. Anyway, his arms are disabled, so what's the use of killing him? Kill him, those who have died because of him Can you survive?"
Shen Quanan turned to look at Hua Guoan and asked, "Are you going to let him go?"
"After all, we are still brothers. Although we betrayed us, we have now received the punishment we deserve. If Senior Brother Jing were here, I believe he would definitely agree with my approach." Hua Guoan sighed.
Shen Quanan said hurriedly: "No! If I don't kill him, it will be difficult to relieve the hatred in my heart!"
With that said, Shen Quan'an was about to kill Tie Zongheng, but Hua Guoan stopped him.
"What's the use of killing him?" Hua Guoan roared.
"You...you killed me. I was the one who betrayed the secret lord back then. It was I who tipped off the Americans. It was I who asked Alan to wait for us there early in the morning. It was I who led you into the trap step by step, and then again Let you kill each other. Hahaha, I did all this, you kill me!" Tie Zongheng lay on the ground and said weakly.
"After all these years, I just want to ask you one thing, why did you do this in the first place?" Hua Guoan squatted down, looked at Tie Zongheng, and asked.
"People die for wealth and birds die for food. We worked hard for the dark owl and paid so much, but what did the country give us? No one knows even after we die. On the battlefield where we can no longer see the smoke of gunpowder, we are just a bunch of people at the mercy of others. Just chess pieces. Hua Guoan, I think you should know better than me how the country has treated you during the more than ten years you have been in charge of the Dark Lord..."
Hua Guoan frowned, and some unbearable memories gradually came to his mind. His heart was extremely heavy, and he said slowly: "Even if the country is not kind to us, we should not betray the country..."
"Haha, pedantic, simply pedantic..."
"Stop talking nonsense, Old Man Hua, kill him, kill this traitor!" Shen Quanan said excitedly.
"Wait a minute..." Tie Zongheng suddenly said, "Even if you don't kill me today, I won't want to live anymore. But I hope you won't do anything to my grandson. My Tie family is such a single child, and he He is a businessman, he doesn’t know my past at all, and I have never told him. I hope you can show your respect!"
Shen Quanan said: "Do you think we are all as cruel and ruthless as you? I have never married and been alone all my life, all thanks to you. And Old Man Hua, he is the same. If he were not hiding in the dark owl, he would probably be alone. He was killed by you a long time ago. Later, he deliberately pretended to be disabled in his legs for almost twenty years, just to make you relax your vigilance and cause him to come out of the hole."
"That's good. I, Tie Zongheng, have been sorry for you in this life, so I have to pay it back in the next life. However, before I die, I still want to know a secret. If you are willing to tell me, even if I die, I will have no regrets." Vertical and horizontal road.
"You ask!" Hua Guoan said.
"Does the Shennong Cauldron... really exist?" Tie Zongheng asked.
Hua Guoan nodded heavily and said: "It does indeed exist, but it is not here, but in my home."
"You...you have found the Shennong Cauldron?" Tie Zongheng was extremely surprised.
"Decades ago, I had already found the Shennong Cauldron. At that time, I studied with Old Man Shen and Senior Brother Jing for three days and three nights, and we also found the location of the Shennong Cauldron. However, none of us had it. Instead, he secretly found the Shennong Cauldron. Old Shen was good at acupuncture, Senior Brother Jing was good at surgery, and I was good at elixirs, so after the Shennong Cauldron was found, I kept it. You should remember that you once I suffered three very serious injuries, almost dying each time, but miraculously survived. It was all thanks to the Shennong Cauldron. And my legs, which were maimed by your secret attack, were also thanks to the Shennong Cauldron. Only then can we stand up again.”
"Do you know that I was the one who attacked you that night?" Tie Zongheng asked suspiciously.
"Other than you, no one else has that ability. It was almost from that time that I started to doubt you. Originally we thought we had eliminated the traitor in the dark owl, but we didn't expect that the real traitor was hidden so deeply..."
"Hahaha... Okay, very good. Everything has been revealed. It's a pity that the four secret lords back then can no longer be gathered together today. Shen Quanan, do it." After Tie Zongheng finished speaking, , closed his eyes, and wanted to die.
Shen Quan'an hated Tie Zongheng so much that he raised his hand and shot Tie Zongheng to death with one strike, and the decades of grudges were wiped away.
After seeing this, Hua Guoan shook his head and sighed: "You will not live if you do something wrong!"
Ye Han stood next to Hua Guoan and Shen Quan'an and remained silent. After hearing their conversation with Tie Zongheng and the stories told by Hua Pinting, they combined with each other and knew what happened. But he What he doesn't know is, what does these things have to do with him? Why is he involved in them?
"Mr. Shen, Mr. Hua, there are some things that I don't quite understand..."
Shen Quanan interrupted Ye Han and said, "I know what you want to ask. This is not a place to stay for a long time. We'd better leave as soon as possible. When we get back to the hotel, I will naturally tell you all the truth."
