"Old man, how many rice dumplings can I exchange for this little lock?" I asked, lowering my head and staring closely into his cloudy eyes.
"Okay, three cents each." The dirty old man said the same thing.
Even though Jason is an out-and-out foodie, he is not stupid after all. His mouth full of rice dumplings finally stopped. He glanced at the dirty old man, then looked at me and pointed his finger.
Referring to the dirty old man, it means asking what is going on with this old man.
I snatched the small jade lock from the dirty old man's hand. The moment my hand came into contact with his, I was even more sure that the dirty old man was definitely not a human being, because the temperature and frequency field transmitted from his hand were definitely not human.
Feelings that humans should have.
The dirty old man grinned his withered mouth and smiled. The few remaining browned and stubbled teeth looked so dazzling in the sun. Suddenly, two cold rays of light shot straight at me, and I instinctively stretched out my teeth.
While blocking the two cold rays with his left arm, he stepped back and kicked me out with one kick. The dirty old man didn't dodge, and forcefully caught my kick with his head. After a "thud" sound, the dirty old man kicked me out.
The old man's body fell straight backwards, and after his two old legs twitched on the ground a few times, he stopped moving.
The people around me were shocked by this sudden turn of events, and the originally bustling street suddenly became quiet. They all stared blankly at the dirty old man who was kicked to the ground by me. Some people saw that it was Jin Yiwei who did it.
Good thing, I turned around and left for fear of getting into trouble. Some people bit each other's ears and muttered something and peeked at me with their eyes. Some brave young people talked loudly: "It's clear sky and white sun, how can the Jin Yiwei do this?"
You are so arrogant that you dare to kick someone to death in the street! Is it true that the local government can’t control these thieves?”
I followed the reputation of the discussion and passed by the young man with a red and black face in coarse cloth. His face was full of anger. I stretched out my hand and pressed it on the handle of the knife at my waist. I nodded to him and said, "Boy, you are here."
How about taking me to see the official?"
When the young man was about to step forward, an old woman behind him grabbed hold of his clothes. The old woman pulled hard on the young man's clothes and knelt down towards me. Then she begged me for mercy with her head pounding like garlic:
"My lord, please don't blame me. My lord, please don't blame me. I'm such a traitor and I don't know what's going on. Please don't blame me. I'm an old bitch and I want to apologize to you."
"Mom, don't ask him. The sky is clear and the sun is bright. I'm not afraid no matter where I go." The young man stood up his neck and demonstrated to me.
"What are you doing?" Chiyoko walked up to me, she gently pulled the corner of my clothes and asked softly.
Chen Mei simply held down my hand that was already holding the handle of the knife. She twisted my waist hard and glared at me.
"Jinyiwei is handling the case. If you want to ask about the case, you can follow me to the Zhenfu Division. Who wants to go?" I ignored Chiyoko and Chen Mei, but looked around at the crowd and shouted loudly.
Except for the young man who was dragged away by his old mother, the rest of the onlookers shrunk their necks and dispersed. Only the traders packed up their belongings and disappeared without a trace.
The originally lively market suddenly became quiet, and only a few of us were left standing on the street. Even the nearby shops had closed their windows and doors, but there were countless pairs of eyes still looking behind the cracks in the doors.
"What a great official power! Lord Mu." Chen Mei said in a strange tone.
"Take him away, let's go to a secluded place." I turned my head and said to Jason in a low voice, and then I pointed at the dirty old man lying on the ground like a dead dog.
Jason bent down without saying a word. He directly put the dirty old man on his shoulders and followed me to the alley entrance on the roadside. Chiyoko and Chen Mei followed behind with their donkeys. Chen Mei
While muttering and cursing all the way, Chiyoko followed without saying a word.
I led a few of them on a quiet path, and soon we were out of the south gate of the city. The soldiers guarding the south gate looked at our group of people with strange eyes. I showed them my Jinyiwei badge, and they
Naturally, they didn't dare to stop him, because at the foot of the capital, the Jin Yiwei always swayed sideways, and no one wanted to cause such a big trouble.
After leaving the city gate, a group of us came to a long-abandoned earth temple, which was originally the place where we planned to meet.
This is a dilapidated place. I don’t know if it is because the Goddess of the Earth enshrined here is not effective, or there are some other reasons why it is so dilapidated. Only half of the temple door is left, and the yard is full of weeds.
, except for the chirping of insects and birds, there are no other sounds.
Jason kicked open the crumbling temple door, and the door immediately squeaked non-stop. After he entered the door, he threw the dirty old man on his shoulder to the ground, and Jason stretched out his hand to wipe it.
With the sweat on his forehead, he said: "I really didn't realize it, this old thing is quite heavy."
Chen Mei, who had been holding it in for a long time, finally broke out. She stepped over to me, grabbed my collar with a bang, and yelled: "What are you going to do? Do such a heavy hand to an old man, and
You brought him here, is there something wrong with your mind? Mr. Mu!"
"Don't worry, Wanjun must have his reasons, he is not that kind of person." Chiyoko stood next to Chen Mei and dissuaded her.
I leaned over to look at the dirty old man on the ground. His eyes were closed and he was breathless. It looked like he would never survive. I glanced at Chen Mei, who was still fuming, but ignored her.
She was dissatisfied. I looked around, and the empty room was full of dust and cobwebs. A statue of earth fell headfirst on the altar table below, and an incense burner that was supposed to be placed on it fell crookedly under the altar table, and it was already gone.
Incense ash.
I stretched out my hand and pushed aside the statue that was leaning on the altar table, then turned around and told Jason: "Get him up here."
"Why do you have to get this old man up there?" Jason wasn't sure of my intention, so he pointed to the dirty old man's body on the ground and asked me.
"You were standing next to me, didn't you see this thing spraying liquid at me?" I tilted my head and looked at Jason and asked.
"No, I didn't see it. I only saw that you kicked him to death." Jason replied honestly. He probably just stuffed rice dumplings into his mouth and ate them.
"If there is such a thing, you can't make it up, right?" Chen Mei looked at me dubiously and asked.
"Yes, you will know soon." I glanced at Chen Mei, and then pulled out the saber from my waist. A cold light flashed through the room, frightening Chiyoko and she couldn't help but take a few steps back. She covered her head
He opened his mouth in surprise and looked at my face with a hint of horror.
"What do you want to do?" Chen Mei asked sharply, her voice trembling slightly.
Jason hugged his shoulders and looked at me. He asked coldly: "Wan, what do you want to do?"
With a murderous look on my face, I held the knife and walked around the altar table where the dirty old man's body was placed. The body was lying on it calmly, with nothing unusual about it.
"You all stay away." I held the saber in one hand and waved it with the other hand to signal them to stay away from the altar table. "Jason, do you have anything with you?"
Jason took a few steps back, and he casually took off the diamond ring from his back (quick knife, iron ruler, and diamond ring are all standard equipment for bandits. His stand-in is a bandit himself, so wearing this one on his back would suit Jason.
the identity of this double).
Seeing Jason and I's posture, Chiyoko and Chen Mei finally felt the seriousness of the matter. They both took out their weapons from their arms at the same time. Chiyoko still used the small leather whip in her hand, while Chen Mei used it.
Mei took out a small dagger with cold light from her arms.
I nodded, then turned around suddenly and rounded the steel knife in my hand. After a ray of cold light, my head rolled to the ground, and the withered grass-like hair was covered with dust on the ground.
A large hole suddenly appeared between the corpse's shoulders, but no blood rushed out from it.
We looked at each other in silence, no one knew what would happen next. At this moment, a black smoke came out from the place where the body's head was severed. It was still a faint smoke at first, but it didn't take long.
Billowing thick smoke, and a little yellow-green liquid mixed with the black smoke spurted out from inside.
"Back off, everyone, step back." I immediately reminded loudly.
With a "swish" sound, a dark green shadow suddenly popped out of the corpse's neck cavity. It seemed to be more than one meter long. The whole shape looked like a long big mallet, but one end of the mallet was impressively sharp.
Has a big head.
"Oh my God! What is that?" The small leather whip in Chiyoko's hand fell to the ground, and she was so frightened that her body was like chaff.
