Chapter 280 Sure enough, he is an ungrateful person raised by his adoptive father (thanks to my book friend Lian Yu Bu Zhi Chun Qu Chu Hu)
"Oh--"
A long sigh really sounded like a deliberate mockery.
Ji Li held the sharp blade tightly, his sharp eyes fixed on Chen Xingyi who was speaking not far away.
Just as he was about to make a move, the man who had been shy just now grabbed his wrist.
"Ah——" Ji Li screamed, his teeth almost breaking.
Luo Wenqi was incredibly strong, he pinched the person's wrist so hard that the bones turned red and the veins were exposed.
Then, he actually threw Ji Li out.
All I heard was a "pop".
The man's bones seemed to be broken. He fell to the ground motionless, with his limbs raised up like a turtle out of its shell.
On the other side, Chen Xingyi also cooperated to add insult to injury.
He used the soft sword at his waist with his white fingertips to pierce through his lonely left hand and nail it to the wooden bench.
He is small in stature, but his methods are ruthless, and he really doesn't hold back at all.
One is responsible for throwing people, and the other is responsible for detaining people.
The two looked at each other and smiled, showing a very good understanding.
"Don't be faster than me next time!"
Chen Xingyi immediately glanced over.
So fierce!
With sharp eyes, he teased Luo Wenqi so much that he dared not laugh anymore.
This kind of thing doesn't happen once or twice.
When Chen Xingyi was sober, the two of them often did not get along, but they always had a tacit understanding in inexplicable ways.
He squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly pulled out the sword with some effort.
Seeing the blood dripping, he felt extremely painful.
The blood, with a smell like rust, trickled down his left arm bit by bit.
"Godfather, can't you just pretend that I never existed?"
Sigh deeply.
Seeing this, Ji Li was furious and shouted at them:
"When have you ever heard that the lives of the dead soldiers are in their own hands?"
Chen Xingyi said sternly: "Why not?!"
Every word and sentence is sonorous and powerful.
His tone was full of certainty and obvious doubt.
Ok? !
Looking at this face, Ji Li suddenly sneered:
"No wonder you asked to monitor Han Miaoran back then. In fact, you have been at odds with him for a long time. You have been hiding away time and again, not wanting to serve!"
"He is indeed an ungrateful wolf raised by his adoptive father!"
……
Because he was injured and his intentions were exposed, the man began to talk nonsense incessantly.
"Hey, that's noisy!"
Luo Wenqi immediately took out a sock and stuffed it into his mouth very forcefully, choking him and making him speechless.
"Well--"
The voice became staggering and became quieter and quieter.
"Hey, Xingyi! What should we do with this one?!"
This man appeared inexplicably and killed people so decisively and fiercely. No one knew what his deeper purpose was.
Luo Wenqi had just asked the question when he saw Chen Xingyi lower his eyes. His expression became complicated and deep, and he felt as if something was draining out of his body.
He was worried in his heart because except when he was acting like a ruffian, it was rare to see this man looking relaxed.
This person had many secrets hidden in his heart and had no intention of opening up to him.
Chen Xingyi on this side nodded, but glanced sideways in silence without responding.
Luo Wenqi gradually walked closer, picked up the sword and dagger and handed them to him.
"Hey, Xingyi. Are you going to kill him...?"
Chen Xingyi moved his lips, a trace of sadness appeared on his face, and he looked at the bound Ji Li:
"Seeing him is like seeing my past self..."
The me who couldn't tell right from wrong, who only cared about my duty as a soldier and worked for my adoptive father without hesitation.
As the evening sun cast its shadow, his lonely face was covered by it. He immediately bent down, and tried to escape by jumping out of the window when the two were not paying attention.
Whoosh!
He was not even afraid of the pain, and quickly disappeared into the darkness with his injured left hand.
"Oh, no! The loach ran away!"
Luo Wenqi's mind went blank.
Before he could finish his words, there was a loud roar that pierced his eardrums, and then he saw a raging fire, poisonous smoke, and a pungent white mist before his eyes.
Soon, the whole room was dyed white and it was impossible to see the surroundings clearly.
Well, this loach ran away and left a mess behind.
At this moment, Chen Xingyi was lying on the bed again, suffering from the effects of the poison.
There was no other way, Luo Wenqi could only hastily carry the person on his back and rush out of the fire in the room.
Chen Xingyi on the back suddenly felt that his body was being carried by someone and his clothes were in a mess.
"..."
"Boom!"
The noise was deafening.
The Yanzhou Inn suddenly exploded, and many seriously injured people flew out. Everyone fled in the chaos.
The two people who managed to escape were frozen in the crowd.
Someone suddenly shouted, "Oh no! The Xuanli soldiers are causing trouble at the border again!"
A raging flame can make the flames burn and bloom everywhere.
There were endless shouts, panic, and unbearable pain...
Luo Wenqi quickly followed the crowd out and put the man down on a flat ground in the corner to check on him, fearing that he had not noticed that he was injured in his haste.
However, he heard a faint voice from Chen Xingyi: "I knew it... it's ridiculous..."
"…What's so funny?"
Luo Wenqi glanced at the exploded and burning inn from afar. He seemed to have not expected that the damage would be so serious and the fire would be so horrific.
"Let's...go to some other place to settle down...except the inn..." Chen Xingyi said and then grabbed Luo Wenqi's sleeve, as if he was sure.
"Well, I'll listen to you!"
Luo Wenqi actually knew about the secret factory, and also knew that it was hiding it from him, so he pretended to be helpless and supported it.
This person came from the same place as Chen Xingyi, and he could not hide his ruthlessness after repeated actions.
But I didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion.
The two of them stopped not far away, leaning against the steps at the corner of the street.
Chen Xingyi lowered his head and laughed at himself, then raised his arm, and one could still vaguely see the fiery whip marks wrapped around it.
"Jili now doesn't realize that everything he has done... is wrong."
"Hey, mistake?!"
The person opposite asked him.
The so-called secret factory is a secret organization of the former Great Ying court. Its purpose is to clean up the treacherous and corrupt officials, purge the court, and conduct secret investigations and assassinations.
However, when it was taken over by Gu Xiaoyu's father-in-law, it gradually lost its luster and became more and more distorted.
The more people he killed, the more doubts he felt besides being covered in blood.
The imperial court of Da Ying did not become clean, but instead became foul and corrupt.
Even if the late emperor at that time was considered a diligent monarch, it could not be changed.
He thought of that night long after, when Daying fell, and the Tian couple who had saved him were murdered by the secret factory people without knowing it, and died in front of him.
It was then that he realized that many of the things his adoptive father had asked him to do were not for the sake of winning great happiness and ensuring the safety of the court.
"You're not going to tell me?"
Chen Xingyi looked at Luo Wenqi's inquiring and worried eyes, and asked himself earnestly.
He closed his eyes deeply, and his breathing became chaotic.
