Chapter 187 Killing 1 Person
Chapter 187 Killing 1 Person
Wang Ji brought him back to the Wang family, arranged for him to live in a remote house.
This year, he was eight years old.
Although the house is located in a remote area, the layout and environment are not bad at all.
He had never lived in such a nice courtyard before, and he was very uneasy for a moment, not knowing what Wang Ji wanted to do.
He didn't dare to do anything that would go against Wang Ji. Wang Ji asked him to live here, so he stayed in the house obediently, not taking a single step out.
It was not until Wang Ji came again that he obeyed and walked out of the house.
Wang Ji took him to understand the layout of the Wang family, told him where his house was, and told him that he could come to him if he had any problems.
He was a little confused for a moment.
From the looks of it, it seems that Wang Ji really is raising him as his son.
But why?
He doesn't understand.
Wang Ji gave him a name, Wang Xuyi.
"The rising sun shines brightly." Wang Ji wrote down his name and held it in front of him. "From now on, you will be called Wang Xuyi. You will be under my name, Wang Ji, and be my son."
Wang Xuyi agreed with a smile, looking very happy.
In fact, he was very confused and didn't know what Wang Ji was trying to do.
After giving him a name, Wang Ji took out a gold lock and wanted to put it on him.
"This is a longevity lock." Wang Ji put it around his neck with a smile, his eyes gentle, without any of the hostility he had when they first met.
That rainy night when they first met seemed like just a dream to him.
Wang Ji really treated him as his son.
When Wang Xuyi confirmed this idea, Wang Ji was awakening him.
"You're so old, but you haven't awakened yet, it's really..." Wang Ji frowned slightly, stroked his head, and seemed to be thinking about something.
Wang Ji was very busy, and he saw him only a few times a month. But he could feel that Wang Ji was very attentive. He found a master for him, taught him to read and practice, and led him on the path of Qi cultivation.
The elixir that was once out of reach is now as easy to obtain as beans.
Wang Ji was afraid that he would be lonely, so he brought him a few magical beasts to keep him company.
Wang Xuyi was flattered. Although he looked happy every time, he was afraid in his heart.
He was afraid that this was just his delusion, afraid that Wang Ji would suddenly take back all he had given him, afraid that this was just a dream.
When he wakes up from the dream, he will have to face the cold reality.
So he tried his best to portray the image that Wang Ji wanted: a cheerful, sunny, and carefree boy.
He knew in his heart that he was like a seed that longed for sunlight but was buried deep in the mud. He was reluctant to let go of the sunlight that had finally come in, but he could not change his corrupt nature.
Whenever I faced Wang Ji, looking into his eyes that seemed to see through everything, my heart always felt uneasy.
He felt that Wang Ji knew everything he was thinking and knew that he was pretending.
Sure enough, one day Wang Ji called him over and asked him what he thought about something. At first he just laughed it off. Wang Ji did not take over the conversation as he usually did, but just smiled and looked at him without saying anything, but he could see from his eyes that he was a little unhappy.
Wang Xuyi was startled for a moment, and immediately changed his tone and spoke his thoughts honestly.
Wang Ji then continued the conversation with a smile.
In front of Wang Ji, it seemed like everything he did was exposed.
He didn't understand why Wang Ji wanted to acknowledge him as his son, but he could feel that he really treated him as his son and heir.
But why?
Why?
Because he has Wang’s blood flowing in his body?
But Wang Ji is in his prime and has not even married yet. With his cultivation level, he should be able to live for more than a hundred years. Why should he worry about having no successors?
Although Wang Xuyi didn't ask, he was always feeling uneasy and confused in his heart.
Gradually, he also treated Wang Ji as his father.
But I always feel a little nervous every time I face it.
His father did not stop him from going out, but told him not to tell anyone his identity.
Wang Xuyi could see that he intended to hide himself, and although he didn't know why, he still did it.
He knew that his father had some connections with the eldest son of the Mo family. After some investigation, he found that although the Qin family itself was not very powerful, they had made friends with many noble families.
If... I can win them over, it should be helpful to my father, right?
Wang Xuyi thought so, because he had investigated them and roughly knew their personalities. He also roughly understood what kind of people they would let down their guard the fastest. And after he made his move, the moment he and Qin Xiao looked into each other's eyes, he knew that he needed to show some sincerity, so he told them his identity openly.
He admitted that there was an element of gambling involved, and that he had been observing the two men's attitudes during the conversation. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was as he had expected.
Everything was going smoothly...but something unexpected happened.
Wang Xuyi's eyes flickered, and he snorted with some reluctance.
……
"……How did you come?"
Qin Xiao looked at the young man in front of him in surprise and asked him.
"Come over and show him?"
"Why does he do that?" Qing Yi said coldly and sat down slowly.
Qin Xiao: ...
Although you said that, your actions were not ambiguous at all.
Ignoring Qin Xiao's helpless expression, Hua Wujian touched Mo Hanyu's forehead, examined it, then slowly withdrew his hand and picked up the handkerchief to wipe it.
"What did Qiongqi say to you?" Qingyi raised his eyelids, glanced at Qin Xiao, and asked.
Although Qin Xiao looked normal and nothing seemed unusual, there was a hint of gloom in his eyes.
Qin Xiao was stunned. He didn't expect him to ask this.
"You don't have to pay attention to him. He's always been mean." Hua Wujian said indifferently, "He's good at sowing discord and stirring people's hearts."
"I didn't..." Qin Xiao laughed and shook his head slightly.
"You are the only one who knows whether it is true or not." Hua Wujian interrupted this meaningless reply and stood up. "His mental damage is not serious. Don't let him use his so-called "talent" to explore any information in the near future."
"I understand." Qin Xiao nodded in response.
Seeing this, Hua Wujian was silent for a moment, then spoke again: "Do you hate him?"
"I can't say I hate you." Qin Xiao lowered his eyes slightly, his gaze fell on Mo Hanyu, and ripples appeared in his eyes, "I just don't know..."
"Don't know what?" Qingyi frowned slightly, as if he couldn't stand his half-hearted attitude.
"I don't know..." Qin Xiao looked at the sleeping child and said softly, "Am I really qualified to blame him?"
Hua Wujian paused, and the look in his eyes changed.
Qin Xiao lowered his head and looked at the jade pendant hanging around his neck, his eyes becoming increasingly dim: "If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have died."
Qing Yi was silent for a moment, turned around and was about to leave. Halfway through, he opened the door and looked back at Qin Xiao: "Have you figured out the enemy?"
"... should be an old friend of Mo Ze." Qin Xiao mentioned this, his eyes darkened, "He has great hostility towards the Mo family, and seems to be a little obsessed with Mo Hanyu's body... I have heard that -"
Qin Xiao told Qing Yi what he had heard about the "origin of the Mo family surname" and paused: "So, I suspect that person is Mo Ze's close friend who came here... or something else. His purpose is not clear yet, but he is quite powerful."
After listening to this, Qingyi nodded, said nothing, and walked out the door.
Qingyi didn't leave any words of comfort for Qin Xiao, and Qin Xiao didn't need any. He just looked at the child on the bed quietly, his eyes dark, and no one knew what he was thinking.
……
Mo Hanyu seemed to have had a very long dream and felt a little sad, but when he woke up he could not remember the content of the dream.
I slowly opened my eyes and the sunlight came in. The morning sunlight was not dazzling. It shone through the curtains onto the bed. The air was cool and there was a slight chill when I breathed.
Mo Hanyu felt someone next to him, so he turned his head and saw Qin Xiao lying on the bed next to him with his eyes closed, seemingly asleep.
The next second, Qin Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, and his sharp gaze was immediately locked on him. After a pause, he returned to his usual calmness.
"Awake?" Qin Xiao stood up and yawned.
Mo Hanyu could hear a hint of fatigue in his tone, paused, and sat up: "What's going on? Why...you are--"
"Your mental strength was backfired, and you slept for three days." Qin Xiao said, yawned again, walked over and sat on his bed, "During this period, your parents came to see you, and they are fine."
"Oh..." Mo Hanyu nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly thought of something, and was startled, "Then, that person..."
"He ran away." Qin Xiao's tone was flat, and there was nothing unusual about it.
"Then why am I unconscious?" Mo Hanyu was a little puzzled. "Is there something on that person?"
"It should be his attribute." Qin Xiao moved his eyes away and said calmly, "It's normal. Above the Heaven Realm, he is still the first."
Mo Hanyu frowned slowly, and lowered his head with some guilt when he thought of this: "I'm so sorry... I dragged you into this. That person should be the enemy of the Mo family, right? I can't figure out his identity for the moment... How about I try again?"
"No need." Qin Xiao interrupted his attempt to investigate and held his wrist. "He will definitely attack again. His target is you. Don't go alone these days. Contact me if you encounter any problems."
"...Okay." Mo Hanyu looked at Qin Xiao. For some reason, although Qin Xiao looked no different from usual, he always felt that Qin Xiao was in a low mood.
Mo Hanyu paused when he thought of this, then slowly fell towards Qin Xiao, hugged his waist and snuggled in his arms.
Qin Xiao froze, looking surprised: "You..."
"I'm still a little sleepy." Mo Hanyu closed his eyes, and seeing that Qin Xiao did not resist, he simply closed his eyes, listened to his steady heartbeat, and gradually fell asleep.
This time, Mo Hanyu woke up quickly.
When Mo Hanyu woke up, he found that his posture had not changed. He was still leaning in Qin Xiao's arms, but Qin Xiao... had tilted his head slightly, with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.
Mo Hanyu didn't want to wake him up, so he slowly got out of his arms, then slowly stretched out his hand, wanting to let him lie on the bed.
But Qin Xiao opened his eyes, his eyes were clear: "Awake?"
Mo Hanyu suddenly met him, but he didn't panic too much. He smiled and nodded: "Yes, I'm awake."
"Go outside when you wake up." Qin Xiao said softly, "After sleeping for so many days, it's time to go outside and move around."
"Will you accompany me?"
"of course."
……
"You're finally awake." Wang Xuyi let out a long sigh, casually placed his spear on the table, clapped his hands and said with a smile, "It just so happened that I encountered that situation before and couldn't treat you to a meal. I'll make it up to you this time."
[He came once when you were sleeping.] Qin Xiao sent a message to Mo Hanyu. They were sitting in a famous restaurant. Wang Xuyi was sitting opposite them, looking at them with starry eyes, as if he was expecting something.
Mo Hanyu nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, and then smiled and said to Wang Xuyi: "It's okay, it's still my fault, I'm really sorry..."
"No, no, no, it's okay." Wang Xuyi shook his hand quickly.
"I wonder if the enemy has been identified?" Mo Hanyu said, a little worried.
"My father and your father have already joined hands to investigate. I believe there will be results soon." Wang Xuyi looked at him and said, "How is your health?"
"Very good..." Mo Hanyu smiled.
"That's good." Wang Xuyi breathed a sigh of relief and handed him the menu. "Is there anything you shouldn't eat?"
"No, just come."
……
"What do you think of him?" Mo Hanyu asked Qin Xiao on the way back.
"Almost the same as his father." Qin Xiao said calmly, looking up at the cloudy sky.
"Oh?" Mo Hanyu was surprised, and then he looked up at the sky, "What are you looking at?"
"Look at the sky." Qin Xiao said nonsense, "The storm is coming."
"Because of me?"
"Who knows?" Qin Xiao suddenly laughed softly, "It will be very dark tonight."
"what are you up to?"
"Kill one person." Qin Xiao's voice was so faint that no one could hear it except Mo Hanyu.
Mo Hanyu paused and looked at him: "Have you decided?"
"He should be grateful to the person who attacked him because that person allowed him to live a few more days."
Of course Mo Hanyu knew who Qin Xiao was talking about.
Yu Yunhao.
The curses that man said that night once again affected Qin Xiao's mother, which had touched Qin Xiao's bottom line. If Wang Xuyi had not intervened, he would have been dead.
"He is in the Earth Realm." Mo Hanyu did not dissuade him, but just reminded him gently.
"I know."
That night.
"Damn, those little brats are actually quite troublesome."
In the courtyard, Yu Yunhao was cursing while bandaging the wound on his arm. He had gone to see Qiu Puyue today, and they started fighting after a few words. In the end, he was injured by an arrow shot from somewhere. Although it did not hit his vital parts, it gave Yu Yunhao a sudden shock.
"Have you thought about the suggestion I made?"
A cold wind blew, and a stunningly beautiful woman landed on the ground. She sat lazily beside the window and glanced at him.
Yu Yunhao turned his head, a fierce light flashed in his eyes: "How come you, a Lei Ting, want to cooperate with me?"
"This has nothing to do with the country. I just promised something, and you can just be an excuse." The woman chuckled, her eyes cold.
"Can you swallow this?" The woman smiled, as if she had made up her mind.
"... Humph." Finally, Yu Yunhao snorted coldly and nodded, "I can help you with this."
"Then it's settled."
The autumn wind blew again, and the woman's figure disappeared.
"……cut."
After making sure the woman had left, Yu Yunhao snorted with some disdain. He stood up and was about to do something when he suddenly stopped and looked towards the window.
The next moment, the lights went out and darkness enveloped.
Yu Yunhao instantly raised his alertness to the highest level, without blinking, and released his Qi to the maximum, and the position of the person who came suddenly appeared.
"I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've learned to play tricks." Yu Yunhao recognized the identity of the person, sneered, and didn't take him seriously.
The visitor stood quietly in front of the window, the moonlight behind him illuminating his outline clearly. The pale moonlight sprinkled on the knife he clenched tightly, and the ice-blue animal pattern looked like a demon with bared fangs and claws, ferocious and terrifying.
The visitor hesitated for a moment and asked, "What did you promise her?"
"Why should I tell you?" Yu Yunhao took a half step back, sneering, the fierce light in his eyes becoming brighter.
The shadow remained silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Consider this your last words."
Before he finished speaking, a cold murderous aura filled the air, as if one was in an ice cellar.
