Memories are like a loyal pug. As long as you throw it away, it will always come back with something in its mouth.
Le Yu remembers the girl named Shuangye.
But the impression is no longer very deep.
Just like ordinary people won't remember what the headlines were a few months ago, Leyu is about to forget that night a few months ago.
Because he has experienced too many things in the past few months - he met the lover he could love for a lifetime, successfully turned Xuanzhu County upside down, founded a newspaper, wrote a novel, became the head of the Jing family, and ran for the Silver Blood Association
The president is successful and even works side by side with Lan Yan to contribute to the harmonious society in Xuanzhu County...
Everything he did, everyone he met.
They are much more important than the little maid who died in the yard.
Although Le Yu witnessed her death with his own eyes.
But along the way, he didn't know how many corpses he stepped on.
The silver-blooded people who were killed by Yin Minghong and Lin Haijun, the Jing family guards who were killed to protect Le Yu, and even the Heyang army who were attacked and killed by Lan Yan at the Wolf Prison dockyard...the people who died because of him,
More than hundreds?
When Le Yu tried to change Xuanzhujun, Xuanzhujun also changed him - he was no longer the peace dog who would make a fuss about the death of ordinary people, but an upright man in troubled times.
Habit is a powerful force.
Le Yu has learned to get used to death.
Or maybe it's just because he activated the 'Ice Blood Physique'.
Therefore, when Le Yu escaped just now, he could leave behind the intercepted Jing family guards without any hesitation; and when it was his turn to be left in the inner city, he could also accept the teasing arrangement of fate.
He has been able to regard those insignificant people as a thing of the past.
However.
Those clouds of the past.
He is also the heart of other people's parents, the support of their children, and the pillow of their partners.
It is also the white moonlight that others miss every night, and the cinnabar mole in their hearts.
He is also a human being of flesh and blood.
"I remember." Le Yu said calmly: "Who are you to her?"
The young man was slightly startled and laughed at himself: "Yeah, who am I to her? We just agreed to get married and live a good life after we left, but the only one who escaped... was me."
"Are you the manservant who managed to escape that night?"
"I have been looking forward to such an opportunity to meet you alone." Rong Yao said softly: "So when I learned from Gui Xi... that is, Yin Minghong that you were still in the inner city, I felt
You will most likely want to escape through the Black Sun Society's path."
Le Yu suddenly thought of a possibility: "Black Sun will be Bai Ye's subordinate organization?"
"It's just a little related. The Black Sun Society was originally a violent organization created by the White Night Walker. However, gangsters, which are worms that feed on people's nutrition, are simply beyond the control of the White Night Walker. They were quickly replaced by Silver Blood
He will become a money thug."
"However." Rong Yao looked at the tunnel behind and said, "Because of this incense money, Bai Ye has a little say in the Black Sun Club. For example... he can stuff Bai Ye Walker into the Black Sun Club."
"In order to give me, a runaway slave, a new identity, and to make it easier for me to work for White Night, I became a small cadre of the Black Sun Society. Although I have no subordinates, all facilities of the Black Sun Society are open to me, including the casino.
, Red Dream Tower, and various secret passages in the city."
"That's why I can wait for such an opportunity."
Rong Yao put his hand into his arms: "Jing Zhengwei, in order to wait for your arrival, I have..."
"Looking forward to it!"
As soon as he said it, Rong Yao suddenly took out his gun from his arms and pointed it at Le Yu. Le Yu turned his head slightly, and heard a thrilling sound of the gun echoing endlessly in the tunnel, and a sharp bullet scratched the
The tip of Le Yu's hair accurately hit the Chamber of Commerce offering that was about to come down!
"There are gunmen below, the number is unknown!"
"The tunnel is too narrow, there is no room for us to avoid it!"
"Damn it! I saw Jing Zhengwei inside!"
Rong Yao took out another gun and put it on his chest, and said softly: "Let's go quickly. I can only delay them for a minute or two at most. When they realize that I am the only one here, they will force a breakthrough. I don't have the ability."
Stop these warriors who are well-fed and well-dressed."
Le Yu walked past him and couldn't help but said: "I thought..."
"Think I'm here to kill you?" Rong Yao smiled: "Didn't I tell you? I am now a White Night Walker working for Bai Ye."
"I actually have a lot to say to you, but this time is not suitable, and... I don't want to say it anymore."
"Actually, when you said that you still remember Shuangye, I thought it was enough. Although you are a hopeless pervert with bad records, your attitude towards the servants at home is quite good. Shuangye even thinks that the day is the most relaxing.
When I'm here, I just wait for the young master to take a bath."
"I heard that you killed Butler Shen later. Although I don't know the reason, I just assumed that you avenged Shuangye."
Le Yu asked: "Don't you hate it? After all, in the final analysis..."
"I hate it, of course I hate it." Rong Yao hid behind a box in the tunnel: "I hate this evil slave system, I hate the Silver Blood Society, I hate the Jing family, I hate Butler Shen, and I hate you."
"But what I hate most is this world where everyone has to accept their fate."
"Why are there always people who are treated as slaves? Why do we always have to hurt others to survive? Why is our life not life?"
"This world should not be like this."
"So you can't die here, at least not now. Those people outside who don't want to accept their fate still need you to take them to tomorrow."
"Fortunately you met me."
"Let's go. There are people from the Black Sun Society outside. I'm just betting on my luck and waiting for you here. I didn't call anyone else to come. You should be careful."
Le Yu nodded and walked out of the tunnel quickly:
"See you tomorrow, Rong Yao."
Rong Yao was slightly startled and called back the Chamber of Commerce offering that was tentatively probing at the entrance of the tunnel.
He never said his name.
Jing Zhengwei said it in one word.
"It seems that people with good memories will not have bad luck..." Rong Yao smiled helplessly.
At this time, a voice came from the tunnel to persuade people to surrender: "Brother below, why are you working hard for Jing Zhengwei? As long as you kill Jing Zhengwei, the top ten silver-blood chambers of commerce are willing to reward you with a lot of money..."
"Sorry." Rong Yao opened fire again, beating back the merchant who seemed to be trying to persuade him to surrender, but actually wanted to rush into the tunnel.
"I never sacrificed my life for Jing Zhengwei."
…
…
"It's a good thing you met me." Ting Chaoxao handed Lan Jianbo a bottle: "Otherwise, no one else would be able to protect you if you were running rampant in the outer city."
Lan Jianbo took a sip of wine and looked at the road to the entrance of the pier. The Tingjia had now built a three-layer defense line with sandbags. The Tingjia guards armed with firearms were hiding behind the bunkers, using fire to drive back the mob's advancing attacks.
.
Lan Jianbo knew very well why the mob wanted to storm the port area despite the hail of bullets - because the warehouses on the dock port house almost the vast majority of Xuanzhu County's precious goods. Compared to the tacky equivalents of gold, silver and jewelry, the warehouses in the port area
Rice, dried meat, clothes, wine, etc. are the necessities of life that the mob urgently needs.
And in the few minutes that Lan Jianbo came back to his senses, he could vaguely see that these mobs were not just a mob, but that there seemed to be a leader behind them directing the plan.
They tried to use fire, throw rocks, and even break lampposts to advance the front, and even threw blazing gunpowder. Even if they had guns and weapons at home, they faced more than ten times the number of people, endless interference, and the night.
Environmental impact is clearly at a disadvantage.
"I originally thought that this riot was started by Jing Zhengwei and Bai Ye." Lan Jianbo said: "But it seems not to be the case now... If it was started by them, they could organize elite troops to break through the defense line, and there would be no need to command these equipment.
A mob with no tactical skills or knowledge came to force a breakthrough."
Ting Chaozao sat on the box next to him and said: "The reason why the riot has the word 'violent' is because of its unpredictable suddenness. If it were Jing Zhengwei...he wouldn't need to make such a big fanfare or say anything about him.
There is no need to do anything, as long as he waits a few more months, the entire Xuanzhu County will be his."
"The Silver Bloods of our generation have stolen all the limelight."
"But the first shot is to kill the enemy. If he hadn't started this riot, then tonight would be the day for his death." Langianbo turned his head and glanced at the red-hot port terminal where cargo ships were being loaded: "In comparison, you guys
Making a fortune by listening to others' silent words is the true wisdom of a businessman."
"Oh?" Ting Chaozao tilted his head: "Did you see anything?"
"After Jing Zhengwei gained power, you must have been preparing to evacuate Dongyang." Although Lan Jianbo was guessing, his tone was full of certainty: "Your firearms transaction in the past two months is just a cover, and the purpose is
In order to cover up the movement of important personnel of your Ting family, it may be said that the firearms were actually shipped out, but they were not sold to others, but were used as the basis for your Ting family to re-establish their fortune."
"You Tingjia have long been dissatisfied with being a businessman. You want more. The Dongyang Silver Blood Society has long been your prison. It is just because of the foundation that you have cultivated for hundreds of years that you cannot abandon this land, and Jing Zhengwei...
...No, he simply contacted Lan Yan and came to Dongyang to rob. This incident made you Tingjia completely determined to abandon Dongyang's foundation."
"The place that can be reached by sea...Skyrim area? Or Morrowind area?"
Ting Chaozao blinked and said with a smile: "Although I have always known that you are very smart, I didn't expect that you can guess so much at just one glance."
"I didn't bother showing off before because it was unnecessary."
"Is it necessary now?"
"Of course, now that my car has overturned, I can no longer escape from Xuanzhu County. My only choice is to seek refuge with you, Tingjia." Lan Jianbo asked in a deep voice: "Tingjia, are you willing to accept the offer of an old friend?
Are you going to defect?"
"This is really... a dream come true!" Ting Chaoxao said with surprise on his face: "The eldest young master of the Lan family, who is the most proficient in machinery and automobile manufacturing and maintenance, is willing to join our Ting family. Of course I am willing, but what does the Lan family say?
"
"If we go tonight, there will probably be no Lan family left." Lan Jianbo shook his head: "I just knew that they still couldn't let go of their family fortune, so I drove out and stayed with them in the inner city just to sit and wait for death."
Ting Chao Zao sighed: "Actually, it's normal. This incident happened so suddenly. It's understandable that the Lan family is hesitant and unable to make up its mind. If our Ting family hadn't been prepared long ago, we might have been blocked in the inner city now.
It’s in.”
"But is this really okay? Just leave your relatives there like this?" Ting Chaozao glanced at the ships at the port: "Although the time is a little rushed, there should be some places on the ship, as long as Lan Lan
If anyone at home is willing to squeeze in, they can still come with us."
Lan Jianbo was a little moved, but he quickly shook his head: "They can't come. The Lan family is like a tree planted on the ground. They grow by absorbing nutrients from the land of Dongyang, but they cannot leave this land.
"
"What a pity." Ting Chaozao stood up and glanced at the first layer of defense at the entrance, which was about to be breached: "It seems there isn't much time left for the Ting family, let's go."
Lan Jianbo nodded: "By the way, I still have some luggage in the car. Please ask someone to take it over for me."
"No problem." Ting Chaozao greeted two of his men to deal with the overturned black car, and led Lan Jianbo towards the cargo ship at the port: "It's a pity. If we are given a little more time, we can even transfer the goods from other chambers of commerce.
Evacuate them all..."
Lan Jianbo suggested: "In fact, you can throw some of the goods out and cause the mob to rob, which can delay enough time."
Ting Chaozao wondered: "Why? Wouldn't this make them more convinced that there are many good things in the warehouse and strengthen their determination to invade the port?"
"The situation you mentioned is based on the premise that the mob has a complete command system." Lan Jianbo said with a smile: "Facing the regular army, this method is not feasible, because they have a complete reward system, and almost all the seizures are
They have to turn it in, and they know they can gain more by defeating it."
"But it's just a mob outside. To them, one side is a tightly guarded entrance, and the other side is goods that can be picked up by bending down. There is almost no need to think about how to choose."
"As long as it causes chaos, it will cause even greater chaos. The time difference during this period is enough for Tingjia to slowly screen the goods you need."
Ting Chaozao nodded: "Okay, I'll tell people to do this later... We're almost there, what else did you miss? Once we leave this time, we will almost never come back."
"No." Lan Jianbo shook his head: "I have no nostalgia for Xuanzhu County."
"good."
Upon hearing Chao Zao's beckoning, two guards came up and captured Lan Jianbo.
"Tie him with a stone and throw him into the sea."
"yes."
This sudden turn of events caused Lan Jianbo's head to almost freeze for a moment, and he immediately asked loudly: "Hey, hey, hey, this is no joke!"
"Of course it's not a joke." Ting Chaoxao took out the cigarette case from his arms, picked up a cigarette, and glanced at him: "Do you want it?"
"Aren't we friends?" Lan Jianbo, who was suppressed, asked bitterly: "I am not good at fighting and I am unarmed. I will be helpless after leaving the Lan family. I can only rely on you to live in the future. I must be
Your best help, your best subordinate! Don’t you still need to fight for power with your brother? Don’t you think I can help you? Why do you want to kill me?”
"It's because we are friends that I left you a complete body." Ting Chaowao lit up his cigarette and took a deep breath, which made him cough repeatedly.
"So why-"
"Because you didn't come to see me."
"Huh?" Lan Jianbo was stunned.
"After my brother came back, you didn't come to see me." Ting Chaoxao looked at the dark sea: "I used to think you were my only friend, but after I lost power, you didn't even bother to give me help in times of need.
one time."
"Very smart. After all, my brother is about to take over the Ting family. Not only is it pointless to keep in touch with me, it will even make my brother evil. The gain outweighs the loss."
"But, I was also the head of the family at that time, and I was very busy, and Jing Zhengwei also asked us to hand over 40% of gold and silver to fill the military expenditure pool-"
"You can have as many excuses as you want." Ting Chaoxao exhaled a long breath: "I only see what you do, and then I will pay you back tenfold."
"If you had given me timely help, then you are now my half-brother Ting Chaozao; but if you chose to stay away from me, then don't blame me for adding insult to injury now."
"You, you are wrong to do this." Lan Jianbo shook his head repeatedly and shouted hoarsely: "How can there be so many friendships between life and death in this world? If you have to use the standards of a saint to demand the people around you, then sooner or later you will become a
Alone!"
As he was talking, Lan Jianbo suddenly got stuck: "You, your Ting family are actually testing humanity like this on purpose? Your brother was exiled, you were deprived of power... You Ting family are doing this on purpose to test whether you are truly
friend'?"
Ting Chaozao smiled and said, "You are really smart."
"Crazy, you are crazy." Lan Jianbo looked in disbelief: "Human nature cannot stand the test, just like if you drop a glass cup once, it doesn't break, if you drop it twice it doesn't break, if you drop it three times it doesn't break, but like this
If you fall, you will eventually break! How can you test out 'real friends' by doing this? Crazy!"
"You think not, because you have never regarded others as friends." Ting Chaozao shook his head and said: "We, the direct descendants of the Ting family, almost all need to conduct such a test. One is to test friends, and the other is to let us understand that there are only two people in this world.
There are very few people who deserve our trust and devotion.”
"The most important thing for a businessman is to distinguish who is a friend and who is a fat sheep."
Lan Jianbo was startled, and suddenly remembered that all the heads of the Lan family preferred honest and hard-working children.
Every business family has its own unique inheritance method.
"Can't you give me a chance?"
Ting Chaoxao looked at Lan Jianbo who was tied to a stone and shook his head: "Don't you understand that opportunities are not given by others but earned by yourself?"
"Bye now."
"My former friend."
Watching Lan Jianbo sink into the dark sea, Ting Chao Zao suddenly realized that the cigarette in his hand had been burned out and even burned his fingers.
He smiled bitterly, walked to the deck of a cargo ship, and found the man who was admiring the "night view" of Xuanzhu County: "Brother, I have a proposal..."
Ting Chao Zao told Lan Jian Bo's suggestion of throwing goods to create chaos. Ting Wan Jian nodded: "Okay, send someone to do it."
"yes."
"By the way, come have a drink with me."
Ting Chaozao was a little surprised, but he didn't refuse. He went to get the wine bottle and glasses, and poured two glasses of clear and fragrant wine for the two of them.
"Brother seems very happy?"
"Yes." Ting Wanjian looked at the thick smoke from the fire in the inner city and showed a satisfied expression: "I am very, very happy."
Ting Chaozao raised his eyebrows: "Tonight's turmoil...is related to you?"
"You can say yes, you can say no. I really didn't know that something like this would happen tonight, but...a few days ago, a person asked me for some Lieyao gunpowder."
"who?"
Hearing Wanjian say a name, Tingchaozao blinked and nodded: "So, brother is happy because he is causing trouble to Jing Zhengwei?"
"Absolutely." Ting Wanjian smiled and said, "If Jing Zhengwei can receive such a 'big gift' before leaving, he should be able to rest in peace, right?"
Ting Chao Zao was startled and let out a soft sigh: "Can he really make you miss him for so long?"
"You don't understand, even if you're old enough." Ting Wanjian smiled and said, "None of you have met anyone who can pass the test, but I have."
When he said this, Ting Wanjian's face was filled with pride, as if he was the one who passed the test.
"He is my soulmate, my destiny, and my future. I even wish he was a woman so that we could build a perfect family."
"We had originally planned that I would be in Sijiati and he would be in Xuanzhu County. We would use Hui Yao to support Si Jia Di, and Si Jia Di would use Hui Yao to eat away at Hui Yao. We would unite inside and outside to achieve unparalleled achievements."
"But now...I'm the only one left."
Ting Chaoxao took a sip of wine and said, "What the hell? Don't you still have family members like us?"
"But I can't choose my family, but I personally chose him." Ting Wanjian glanced at him and sneered, "Are you like Lao Immortal? Because you couldn't find any real friends when you were young, you started to put all your friends away. Are you emotionally invested in your family?”
Ting Chaozao put down his wine glass, turned around and left: "I'm going to see what's going on outside."
"What a stupid brother..." Ting Wanjian looked at his brother's back and sneered, then turned to look at the northern sea and poured all the wine into the sea:
"Then, Jing Zhengwu, I will abide by our agreement..."
