Chapter 151 [Killing in the Rain] (1)
Luo Lie said: "You have done so many things for him, and you should pay back all the favors." Speaking of this, Luo Lie stood up, walked slowly for a few steps, came to the window on the south wall, and pushed open the carved lattice window. The rain was still dripping, and weaving it into a crystal clear bead curtain along the rain water dripping from the eaves.
Luo Lie said: "You are here for Ye Qinghong this time."
Lu Weilin remained silent.
Not long after, Luo Lie smelled the tobacco behind him, and Lu Weilin lit a cigarette again. Luo Lie was not wrong. Lu Weilin had already paid off Mu Sanshou's favor. He came to Peking this time, not because he was driven by Mu Sanshou, but because Ye Qinghong's disappearance touched his heart.
Luo Lie looked at the scenery outside through the rain curtain, intermittently and hazy. Now no matter how hard he tried, he could not see the clear outline of the scenery. He could only wait until the wind stopped and rain stopped. The disappearance of Ye Qinghong was as confusing as the weather in front of him, and there were too many questions in it. Luo Lie did not deny that he had also worried about Ye Qinghong's disappearance, but there was another voice deep in his heart, telling himself that Ye Qinghong would not have any problems.
This comes from his sixth sense. Master Mu San came from a thousand miles away. In addition to showing his concern for Ye Qinghong, he always felt that there was another layer of intention. When he thought about the meeting between them carefully, there seemed to be some unconvincing things in Master Mu San's words.
Any convincing assumption must be based on meticulous reasoning and evidence. With Mu Sanshou's calmness and sophistication, he should not make unfounded inferences. He pointed out that Ye Qinghong's always related to Prince Hong Zaixiang. The basis for making such a judgment is that Prince Hong Zaixiang killed Ye Qinghong's father Prince Rui Yixun, so Ye Qinghong used the treasures of the Old Summer Palace to attract Zaixiang to appear.
Luo Lie felt something was wrong at that time, but the treasure map that Mu Sanshou took out interfered with his vision. Now, when recalling it, there are more and more doubts. The treasure map should be true, but even if Zai Xiang is used to lead Zai Xiang out, can Ye Qinghong be safe? There seems to be no necessary connection between these things.
This incident was based on Mu Sanshou's assumption from beginning to end. According to Mu Sanshou's words, this treasure map should be a bait that attracts Zaixiang to appear. Now if you think about it carefully, isn't the treasure map a bait for them?
Lu Weilin said: "The Third Master regards Ye Qinghong as his own, and will never take risks with her life."
Luo Lie said: "Since that's the case, the third master will definitely make proper arrangements for her safety and will not let her take risks."
Lu Weilin heard the implicit sound of his strings and played Yan Ash and said, "Do you suspect Ye Qinghong is fine? Not kidnapped? No accident?"
Luo Lie still looked out the window and whispered: "I only know that everything in this world will have cause and effect. If it is a hijacking, then the robbers will inevitably put forward conditions."
Lu Weilin shook his head vigorously, and his voice increased a lot: "She returned to China for revenge. Ren Zhongchang, Liu Tongsi, Xiao Tianxing, whoever participated in the murder of Prince Rui back then, would have to pay the price. This time she wanted to use the secret treasures of the Old Summer Palace to lead Prince Hong Zaixiang..."
"You heard Ye Qinghong say these?"
Lu Weilin became angry for some reason, and he shouted: "After all the time, you still doubt Ye Qinghong and me!"
Luo Lie turned around and stared at Lu Weilin's eyes that were about to spit out anger. He was not angry. He even lacked the necessary response in front of Lu Weilin's excitement. The expression on his face was as unsuspecting as ever: "I don't doubt you, I just talk about the matter. Now that I think about it, there are many doubts about the whole thing."
Lu Weilin said: "You suspect that the whole thing was directed and acted by Ye Qinghong? So what is the purpose of her doing this? She will tell you the secret? Spending so much time and energy? Could it be just for a prank?" His emotions became more and more excited than calm.
Luo Lie said: "Maybe there is another expert behind her." Although Ye Qinghong is extremely smart, her ambition and strategy are not enough to support this bottomless mystery. From Huangpu to Manchuria, from Manchuria to Tianjin, and now to Peiping, along the way, there is always an invisible force behind them.
Ye Qinghong is in the bright spot, but this invisible power comes from the darkness. Whenever there is a critical moment, Ye Qinghong will come forward. Is she her own interests or the interests of a certain group? Luo Lie believes that Ye Qinghong is not as good as a snake or a scorpion, she should have good intentions.
Lu Weilin said: "Master Mu San?"
Luo Lie said meaningfully: "I'm not sure, but I believe he definitely didn't tell us the truth."
Walking in the rain, Wu Jie's gray long gown was soaked, and his sunglasses were covered with water droplets. However, this did not affect him at all. A person living in his own world must first forget all the interference from the outside world. Practice does not need to stay away from the world. He is in the world and has a pure land in his heart.
A person's experience of losing his eyes must be painful. However, when you adapt to this pain and accept reality, you can discover a completely new world. This is not a change in the world, but from your perception of the world of survival in the past.
If you want to understand this world, in addition to watching and listening, it is more important to feel it with your heart.
The wind mixed with raindrops rushed towards him, but Wu Jie felt a little cold behind him. This feeling was not caused by the sudden drop in temperature, but the cold murderous intent that was constantly approaching. Wu Jie still walked slowly without making any response. It was this manifestation that paralyzed the opponent hiding behind him.
Sada Yuiwei lurked behind the trunk motionlessly, and the brown samurai suit made him seem to be integrated with the trunk of the same color. Even people with normal vision would take some effort to see through his trunk, not to mention a blind man.
Sada Yubinge's gloomy eyes showed a murderous aura, like a wolf locking in prey. In fact, his code name in the organization is Lone Wolf, who is alone and full of wolf nature. He does not understand why the organization sent him to deal with a blind man? Although his body has changed, the arrogance in his blood has not disappeared. The Lone Wolf felt that he was unprecedentedly powerful, and the mysterious medicine that Pingdu Takashi also injected him into rebirth and gained strong regeneration power.
The lone wolf took a deep breath and was ready to attack. He would kill with one blow, and he would never hesitate. Any kindness was cruelty to himself. The lone wolf slowly bowed his back and then straightened in an instant. In the moment of opening and relaxing, the lone wolf bounced out from behind the big tree with amazing elasticity, like an arrow shot by a powerful crossbow. He held the Tai Knife with both hands, and the arm was stretched straight as soon as his body jumped into the air. The blade turned into a straight and shining light and pierced Wu Jie's back.
Facing a blind man, even the lone wolf felt dull when he used such an attack, but the order he received was to kill Wu Jie, no matter what method he used.
Wu Jie's pace still did not stop, but his stride changed quietly, and his stride changed the speed of his movement. This subtle change caused the Lone Wolf's assassination target to change a little. The target was moving. When Lone Wolf realized this, he immediately realized that he had been discovered.
The difference is a slight mistake. The assassination of the lone wolf showed a subtle deviation due to Wu Jie's sudden change of rhythm. It was too late to adjust at this time. Wu Jie did not turn around, but just picked up the bamboo stick in his hand and clicked it backwards.
He relied on his feelings, but he accurately grasped the blade of Taidao. The blade stabbed the head of the stick, and did not stage a situation of unstoppable momentum. With a sound of duh, Taidao's attack came to an abrupt end. The horror of the lone wolf was indescribable. He attacked forward and used the forward acceleration momentum. The opponent just casually turned his offensive into invisibility. Wu Jie's accurate position selection and strong internal strength were the only ones he saw in his life.
If he launched a frontal attack, with Wu Jie making sufficient preparations, he might have decided success or failure in one move. For a moment, the lone wolf forgot that the target of his assassination was a blind man, and there was no difference between launching a sneak attack from the front and back.
The lone wolf responded very quickly, took a step forward with his right foot, leaned forward, and slapped the palm of his left hand at the end of the hilt, trying to use his powerful explosive power to make the blade continue to rush forward and break the opponent's bamboo stick.
However, Wu Jie withdrew his force at this time and his body rotated counterclockwise with his left foot as the axis.
The sword in the lonely wolf suddenly lost resistance and drove straight in. The right wrist rotated slightly, the blade cut across, and a pool of autumn water slashed towards Wu Jie's waist.
Although Wu Jie was blind, he seemed to see him in person. The bamboo pole was raised to block the sword. When the blade hit the bamboo pole and did not cut it off, it made a sound of metal collision. Wu Jie's body flew backwards with the power of a lone wolf's slash, like a big gray bird flying upwards, falling in the air on the branches behind him.
The lone wolf followed like a shadow, jumped up in the air, and the sword in his hand turned into a ball of light and mist, strangling towards Wu Jie's location.
Before the opponent could attack, Wu Jie had left the branch and raised the bamboo pole to slash towards the ball of light and mist. For a moment, the sound of jingling was endless. The bamboo pole Taidao had experienced countless collisions in a short time. The bamboo pole was chopped by Taidao and was covered with bruises, revealing the true appearance hidden inside.
The bamboo pole is a thin long sword, as thick as a thumb and triangular shape. It begins to narrow two-thirds of the sword body, gathering at one point at the sword edge, and gradually changes from the narrowing point to a transparent blue.
The lone wolf looked at the sword in Wu Jie's hand, and a hint of panic flashed in his heart. Of course, he would not forget that before assassinating Luo Li and others, he was injured by bullets of similar material. His powerful regeneration ability almost lost its effect in the face of this substance. The lone wolf dared not fight and turned around and fled to the wind and rain.
