"Did that's what the man said?" Chen Zhi looked at Mr. Bai and continued to ask.
"Yeah, that's all I said!",
Mr. Bai nodded innocently,
"I was so frightened at the time. You think about such a murderous monster, how could I dare to talk to him? I was afraid that he would get angry and kill me too.
But before he left, he told me not to inquire about the affairs of the villages on the mountain, nor to communicate with them, otherwise he would not be able to save my life.
Also, since I think I am a descendant of Bai Qi, I will continue to play this role in the future. Bai Qi’s tomb has been discovered, and I will be responsible for sweeping the tomb and offering sacrifices in the future! New Year’s Eve~~~"
"Only this?",
Chen Zhi asked coldly, scanning the seventy-year-old man with his eyes.
"You never saw him again?"
"Never seen me again~~",
Old Man Bai replied sincerely,
"How dare I provoke such a person?
In the following decades, I stayed far away from that village and did not allow my children to play in the mountains. Even if they happened to encounter it, they would avoid it immediately.
Those aboriginal people rarely came out. Seven years ago, there was no idea what kind of mountain disaster happened on the mountain. Mud, earth and rocks rolled down the mountain stream, burying the entire village. No one escaped.
They are all probably dead~~~"
"Yeah?",
Chen Zhi looked at the trembling old man again, looked into his eyes, and then smiled,
"Mr. Bai, do you know?
I can find the illogical points in what people describe and deduce the true nature of things, including your character and the choices you made at the time~~
I don't think you are so greedy for life and fear of death. On the contrary, you have always been proud of your descent from Bai Qi and will never give in easily. When you find out that the knife has been stolen, you will be very angry. What happened next is probably
Only you and that man know..."
After Chen Zhi said these words, Old Man Bai felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His face turned pale and pale, and the expression on his face began to change. He looked at Chen Zhi with hostile eyes and stopped talking.
"Haha..." Chen Zhi waved to him,
"Don't be nervous~~~, we are not here to expose your old scars, and the legal aspects have nothing to do with me. We will touch them ourselves, so you don't have to worry at all~~~
But you may not have heard clearly what I just said, don’t lie to me, don’t try to cross the sky, otherwise you will have to pay the price!”
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he glanced sideways at Fat Wei. Fat Wei immediately changed his appearance, pulled out the pistol from his trouser leg with a cold face, and walked out quickly.
It was already late at night, and everyone outside was probably asleep...
After a while, Fat Wei dragged a person in. That person was Bai Xiaowei. He was still wearing pajamas. He was knocked unconscious by Fat Wei and was in a coma.
Fat Wei threw Bai Xiaowei on the table, pressed the muzzle of his gun against Bai Xiaowei's head, and looked at Old Man Bai with a face as cold as ice.
"How are you doing, old man?" Chen Zhi said to Old Man Bai with a smile,
"This must be your favorite grandson, right?
Flowers will bloom again and people will no longer be young. Don't you feel sad that you are passing away at such a beautiful age?
Don’t force us to be bad guys…”
"you……",
Old Man Bai's face was already livid at this time. He freed his hands and rushed forward desperately, trying to save his grandson, but before he could move forward, the cold muzzle of Fatty's gun was already pressed against his forehead.
"Old man, don't be confused and don't go forward..."
"Haha~~~" Chen Zhi lowered his head and laughed, then looked up at Old Man Bai,
"Mr. Bai, I saw it right. You and your grandson have different tempers. You are a bloody person. You are not afraid of death, right?"
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he suddenly stood up, his face was close to Old Man Bai's face, and he looked straight into his eyes.
"You and that man are actually friends, right?"
"yes",
Old Man Bai changed his cowardly look and replied decisively,
"He and I are friends, and I will never betray him!
If you are a decent man, don't do anything to your children. If you have any problems, come to me~~, don't worry about red or green, if my old man frowns, I will take your last name~~"
"Don't be so excited~~",
Chen Zhi looked at Old Man Bai with a smile and said,
"Let me guess what happened at that time. After you discovered that Bai Qi's giant knife was stolen, you should have worked with the man to retrieve the knife, right?
Your personalities are compatible, you talk and laugh happily, and with your ancestral connections, you quickly became friends~~
Later, perhaps because of your friendship with him, you settled here and built Baijia Town.
But I estimate that you must have been to that village in the mountains more than once. You met with that man frequently after that, buying supplies for him down the mountain, delivering messages, and providing cover. It wasn’t until the disaster seven years ago that you lost it.
Contact, if I guessed correctly, what should the man have told you at the last moment?
If they are going to a dangerous place where life or death is uncertain, for example... to Bai Qi's real cemetery..."
"How did you know?" Old Man Bai's mouth trembled, he sat down on the chair and looked at Chen Zhi in disbelief.
"I always knew...",
Chen Zhi suddenly replied seriously,
"Because in a sense, he and I are friends we have never met!
His name is White Blade!"
"You..." After hearing the name, Old Man Bai stammered a few times and said nothing, but a doubtful emotion began to appear in his eyes.
"Mr. Bai, I know it's hard for you to believe me now, but look at this...",
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he took out the photocopy of the map, unfolded it and placed it on the table. Then, the entire shape of the village was revealed.
"Based on your friendship with Bai Ren, you must have been to his village and know its structure.
I just went to look at the ruins. In fact, there is only one tenth of the village, which is like a crescent.
The real village is round, like a bright moon.
The so-called ruins on the mountain are actually just a cover. There must be another passage to enter the real village~~, what I said is right!"
"..." Old Man Bai has been listening to Chen Zhi's words silently without saying anything. The doubtful look on his face has gradually disappeared.
At this time, I heard Chen Zhi continue to say,
"Mr. Bai, I know you are protecting that village, but you are actually wrong. Bai Ren and I are actually on the same front.
This picture was drawn by Bai Ren seven years ago and has been kept in our hands. It has his signature on it.
You are just an ordinary person, and you cannot understand what we do, but please believe me, what we do is definitely more important than you think!
But I can't tell you who we are now, otherwise your whole family will not survive.
That trick of hiding a village with a mirror spell doesn't bother me at all.
But now I need you to tell the truth, including everything Bai Ren said to you. This information is very important to us.
Otherwise, I will really do something to hurt you, and your family will die.
These sacrifices are heavy and meaningless~~~
I will give you ten minutes to think about it now, and then I will not hesitate again..."
