Xia Shang was a little surprised. It was hard to imagine that Zhang Kui, an illiterate man, could have such emotion. It can be seen that the changes that happened to him had a great impact on his body and mind, which made him regret the past.
But he said that he didn't even want to take revenge. Those were all nonsense. He just knew that the power of his enemy was so powerful that he could not compete with it even if he spent his whole life, so he hid all his hatred in his heart, so he said this.
According to Xia Shang's understanding of Zhang Kuizhi, this person is not an open-minded person, he will judge every penny spent, and he is very vindictive. The more he says this, the greater the hatred hidden in his heart.
Xia Shang looked at him and laughed coldly: "Zhang Kui, you are not a person who is willing to suffer losses. Besides, what happened to you is not just a loss. Do you really not want to take revenge on the enemies who ruined your life? You didn't tell me
, how do you know I can't avenge you? Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, with your character and your current appearance, I think you are willing to risk your life to try it, right?"
Zhang Kui was silent, his calloused hands clasped together a little trembling, and after a long time he said tremblingly: "Not to mention the one in ten thousand chance, even if there is one in one hundred thousand chance, one in a million
If I have the opportunity to take revenge, I... I also... But, with my current appearance, how can I still take revenge? I am not even a useless person now, I am simply a monster that I can beat on my own!"
"Some people live under the sun, and some people live in darkness. If there is no place for you under the sun, you might as well live in darkness for the rest of your life. I believe you can still be alive as you are now.
There are still things waiting for you to do. I still need people here, and there are not many people I can trust. You should be one of them."
"Master...you...you want me to do something with you?"
"Yes."
"I...what else can I do with my appearance like this? Besides, I used to..."
"What I want you to do now is different from what I asked you to do before. You were not suitable for your current job before, but I think you are very suitable now. Don't think that you are useless because you are blind. You are eager to do it now.
I can see your desire for revenge. This is an important factor that forces you to become stronger, and it is also what I value about you."
"Why?"
"If I told you that in the future you would have the opportunity to personally kill the people who persecuted you, would you still have so many questions?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Kui was shocked and was about to stand up in excitement, but he quickly calmed down and shook his head: "Sir, maybe you really have something to rely on, but you don't know who you are facing.
.I can't trust you unless...unless you can prove to me the strength you possess."
Xia Shang frowned and thought that Zhang Kui was really cautious at this time. After thinking about it, he took out something from his waist and said: "At three o'clock tonight, send this thing to the Suzhou magistrate's office. You will naturally understand. If you want to
If you are successful, bring this item to Hero Manor to find me."
Xia Shang left his things behind and left the ruined courtyard silently without looking back.
Seeing that Xia Shang had left, Hong Qi went inside and took a curious look.
Zhang Kui touched the thing left by Xia Shang. He didn't know what it was, and handed it to Hong Qi: "You bastard, what is this?"
"A waist plate with a horse face engraved on it and the word "一" across the middle of the horse face."
"At midnight tonight, you will hand this badge into the hands of the prefect and see what the prefect's reaction will be?"
…
Returning to Heroes Village, Yu Ji brought Bao Zhilin and everyone had been waiting for a long time.
When Xia Shang went to Shuiyue Villa, he asked Yu Ji to investigate Chunjiao's whereabouts in the city. Yu Ji needed to report on the specific situation, but unfortunately, although Yu Ji made great efforts to investigate, she found nothing.
It seems that only the mysterious Jinniang, the head of the Chunfang Division, can avoid Yu Ji's pursuit.
Xia Shang did not dare to be surprised by such news. He knew that the only way to break through Chunjiao's matter was through Zhang Kui. Zhang Kui would definitely tell everything tomorrow.
When I came back this time, I saw that there seemed to be some new faces in Yu Ji's team. Three of them were very eye-catching. A young man dressed as a scholar, with a face as tall as a tree, holding a folding fan and smiling silently. Behind him were two middle-aged men dressed in martial arts.
A young man, with a heavy back and dark skin, carries a big hammer on his back, and a fat body with a fat head and big ears, and a butcher's knife stuck in his waist.
The three people followed Yu Ji and stood silently until Yu Ji reported everything that should be reported before signaling the three people to move forward.
Xia Shang stood up in confusion: "I have been paying attention to these three people for a long time, I don't know..."
Yu Ji smiled: "Let the three of you introduce yourself."
The strong man said first: "I don't have a name, just a blacksmith, Li Zhuang, please call me Lao Li."
The fat man continued: "I don't have much reputation, I'm just a butcher, Wang Dahan. You just call me Dahan. Hahaha..."
The last scholar stepped forward: "Scholar Wuzhen is known as the master of martial arts in the world of martial arts. The two behind him are servants' younger brothers. We, the three unknown brothers in the world of martial arts, pay their respects to you, sir."
After saying that, the wrinkled scholar first bowed respectfully to Xia Shang. The two people behind him were a little slow and awkwardly clasped their fists at Xia Shang.
These three brothers have different postures, which is very impressive, but I didn't expect that the youngest one is the eldest brother.
The other party seemed to understand Xia Shang's doubts, and shook his sleeves gracefully: "I am not talented, but I have a lot of skills. Although I have no reputation in the world, I still have some merits. I am showing my shame."
As he finished speaking, he put away his folding fan and respectfully held something with both hands and sent it to Xia Shang.
Xia Shang took a look and saw that it was his first waist badge. He didn't know when he had stolen it.
Although this person has a strange name, he really has some abilities.
But Yu Ji on the side had a bad expression and stood up and said: "Bitch Zhou, please stop being rude and verify your identity quickly."
Scholar Zhou smiled coquettishly, straightened his expression, took out something from his waist, knelt down on one knee, and held up his hands: "My subordinate, No. 5 of the Miaoshou Division of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is attending the first meeting."
Miaoshouji!
One of the twelve divisions, corresponding to the rat in the Chinese zodiac, and is mainly responsible for sneaking in, stealing, and spying on information.
The waist badge is engraved with rat-head text and the word "五" on it.
At this time, Yu Ji explained: "My lord, although I didn't find out the news about Chunjiao this time, I met this person, and there were some misunderstandings. Later I found out that Zhou, the bitch at the end of the Five Rats, has been loyal to the court till now."
Shusheng Zhou knelt in front of Xia Shang, without raising his head, and said loudly: "Master Lu Xun has saved the life of the bitch Zhou. I learned that you are the new head of the twelve divisions appointed by Master Lu Xun. I would like to
I swear to follow you to the death, but you will follow your lead. If you act disloyally and unjustly, you will not die well in this life."
Xia Shang frowned. He was not used to it being so serious. He quickly called him up and looked behind him: "What are the numbers of these two people?"
The fat man smiled stupidly: "Hehehe... Sir, we are not from the Twelve Divisions. We will follow whoever the elder brother says to follow, hehehe..." (To be continued)
