The death of its twenty-fifth target, the curtain call of tragedy
The prisoners who followed Li Xiaodao down to the thirteenth floor began to open the doors of each cell and liberate the prisoners, while Li Xiaodao went straight to the target.
"You, who is Liu Jinhu?"
Li Xiaodao stood in front of the door of the cell and asked.
Before the voice fell, the prisoner in the room subconsciously got out of the way. Behind the cell, a man came towards Li Xiaodao. He was not tall, a little thin, and his hair was loose. When he went further, Li Xiaodao was shocked. His target was actually a woman. Unfortunately, there was no information on his chest. No wonder Li Xiaodao could not recognize him.
"I am."
A somewhat low woman's voice.
"I learned from others that you know a very rare ingredient. Tell me and I'll let you out."
So far, Li Xiaodao can only say so. It's because Ning Chengsan didn't explain clearly to him.
"Let me out first."
Liu Jinhu said that she was obviously a little excited, but she covered it up well. At least people who were not as good as Li Xiaodao definitely thought that this woman did not intend to go out at all.
"You are not qualified to bargain."
Li Xiaodao made an unpleasant statement that time is tight, and Li Xiaodao doesn't want to grind his mouth with her, so the best way is to threaten.
"You can let me out, but don't remove the iron cone."
Liu Jinhu said, which made Li Xiaodao a little confused. Can she change something when she came out of it? The iron cone behind her was still there. Even if she was stronger than Li Xiaodao before she was locked in, Li Xiaodao didn't think she could resist.
Li Xiaodao opened the door of the prison and released all the people.
"Can you say it now?"
Li Xiaodao looked at Liu Jinhu, thinking about what she was going to play.
"I have a man who is locked up on the 16th floor. I have to save him first."
Liu Jinhu's tone was flat, but her breathing was very short. It could be seen that she was very anxious, but she was constantly hiding her anxiety.
Liu Jinhu's mentality is indeed what Li Xiaodao thinks. She is anxious but does not dare to show it. She doesn't know any particularly rare ingredients. Li Xiaodao is probably looking for the wrong person, but she can't make up any one to deceive Li Xiaodao immediately. Even if she wants to make it up, she has to wait until her father is rescued.
"Hmm, get an inch."
Li Xiaodao snorted coldly. It seemed that there was no objection. Whether Liu Jinhu lied to him or seriously, Li Xiaodao didn't think there was any difference in following her to the 16th floor. If what she said was not a lie, Li Xiaodao could add another chip.
This time, there are less than ten people left to follow Li Xiaodao and Liu Jinhu. These people simply think that it will be safer to walk with Li Xiaodao, while the other few are people in the same cell as Liu Jinhu. There is a kind of awe in their eyes when they look at this woman, which is an unstable factor.
It quickly reached the 16th floor with the elevator. This is the smallest space in the whole cliff prison. There are less than ten cells, and several of them are empty. There is only one person in one cell. It seems that those who are locked here should be amazing.
Liu Jinhu accelerated his pace and soon stopped in front of a cell.
"Is that him? Now, tell me what you know."
Li Xiaodao said with a smile that the woman's excitement had overflowed. Obviously, what was locked in the cell was her very important person, probably her relatives.
Liu Jinhu did not speak and fell into silence.
"I don't have time to grind with you. Besides, I'll kill the old guy inside first."
Li Xiaodao threatened him, and he had no choice but to do it. The prison guard must have been dispatched. If he is unlucky, it is estimated that there will be people who come from other places, such as the warden himself. It is difficult for Li Xiaodao to bring the target back now.
"You..."
The woman pointed to Li Xiaodao and was ready to do it, but when she got up, she reacted that Li Xiaodao was not inserted into the iron cone. He was a complete predator, and she herself, at best, was only speed, more powerful than many people.
"It was Ning Chengsan who asked you to come."
Sitting there, the white-haired old man like a dead man walked to the door and asked Li Xiaodao. His teeth had fallen off a little, and his face was full of age spots, just like an old man who was choking at any time, but his voice was so strong and powerful.
Li Xiaodao was shocked and then relieved. It seems that all this is expected by the cheap father-in-law, and this old man is the real target.
"Come in, I'll tell you, Jinhu, back off."
The old man ordered.
Li Xiaodao opened the cell and walked in. Xiaomi also followed him in. Liu Jinhu just wanted to get close, but he was stared at by the old man and shrank back.
"It's better for the old man to be short."
Li Xiaodao said with a smile. Opposite him, the old man who lacked several teeth also grinned.
The old man began to tell a story slowly. His voice was very low, and only Li Xiaodao and Xiaomi could hear it.
Unconsciously, nearly half an hour has passed.
"Ha ha ha ha ha, life is really extremely interesting. There is joy in sadness, and there is sadness in joy. Is the old man ready for the curtain call of life?"
Finally, Li Xiaodao stood up and laughed and said. No one understood why Li Xiaodao suddenly said such words. Xiaomi just looked around, as if he didn't care about Li Xiaodao and the old man's words at all.
"What if you don't want to die? You still have to die. I hope you don't kill my daughter Jinhu."
The old man didn't look up, but just looked at the empty and muttered.
"I have to say that the old man thinks too much."
Li Xiaodao said that he thought too much. Of course, it was not that Li Xiaodao did not kill the woman outside, but that Li Xiaodao felt that it was necessary to kill that woman, so he would not stop anyway.
"So I just hope that after I have been here for so many years, I always know that killing always has retribution."
The old man is meaningful, just like before the death of the senior monk, so he tells the last way philosophically, but Li Xiaodao just thinks that this is the last moan of a tragic figure. There is no evil person living in this world.
"Okay, okay, it's over and we're on the road."
Before Li Xiaodao's words fell, a black crescent dark blade flew out of the sky, and the old man's head was cut off in an instant and flew to one side. Li Xiaodao felt that he was benevolent and righteous, and the broken head was at least a painless way to die. Then, Li Xiaodao's hand reached into the old man's chest and took out a crystal-like thing from the flesh and blood.
Liu Jinhu, who had been paying attention to the situation in the cell outside, suddenly collapsed and went crazy. The first second, she thought that Li Xiaodao was the person her father's former friend asked her to come over. No matter how bad it was, she came for something. Why did she suddenly kill her most important relatives?
Liu Jinhu rushed over desperately. Li Xiaodao knocked her down with only one punch, and then stepped on the woman's leg bone, making her unable to move.
The next moment, just as Li Xiaodao was about to kill him, Xiaomi suddenly stood in front of Li Xiaodao. To be more precise, Xiaomi squatted down like an adult, comforted the woman whose eyes were full of tyranny and resentment, and used her small palm to soothe the ferocious face wet with tears.
Li Xiaodao's hand is soft. About the woman in front of him and the dead old man inside, that story is indeed a little sad.
The cause of the story is a kind of thing called "yin jade". It is a special symbiotic creature that can make the host absorb the power of others. It sounds like a very horrible existence. Nearly 30 years ago, a hunter named Liu Chenguang finally gave a lifetime of life in order to get this "yin jade". Price, his beloved wife died.
He got Yinyu, but found that the so-called absorption of other people's energy is not as powerful as rumored. It can be regarded as powerful, but it can be used by him. That's all. The greater the ability to absorb, the more vitality, the more vitality, yes, vitality. At first, he thought that the power was taken away, but one time, in order to defeat a strong opponent, he desperately activated Yinyu and found that the loss of Yinyu was irreparable vitality.
What's more, even if he doesn't use it at ordinary times, his vitality will pass at a faster than usual speed. He is very reluctant to give up this power, but when his life is at stake, he has to give up. But at this time, Liu Chenguang learned the existence of the wine of immortality. Even if it is a replica, it can be stable to a certain extent. The state of life will not age rapidly.
Liu Chenguang decided to get the wine of eternal life, then let his daughter drink it, and then pass the Yinyu to his daughter.
In the plan, everything is very good. Unfortunately, the reality is that only after his daughter drank the wine of eternal life, they encountered a situation that was almost mortal. At this time, Ning Chengsan appeared and saved the lives of the father and daughter in a special way, but did not let Liu Chenguang pass on Yinyu to his daughter, but closed it separately. Come on, it's been decades.
Liu Chenguang soon understood that one day, someone would come to take away his Yinyu, but he could do nothing and could not kill himself. If he died, his daughter would die with him.
At the end of the story, Li Xiaodao killed a poor father who lost his wife and lived for his daughter, and then took away his most important thing, which was also the beginning of all tragedies.
"Poor, don't kill."
Xiaomi spoke for the second time and once again touched the heartstrings of Li Xiaodao. In Li Xiaodao's view, the person who lost his parents is the most sympathetic person in the world.
