"Little Xin! Walking on this road, the belt is tied to the head. I don't know when it will fall off. " That year, the plum blossom tree bloomed just right. Cao Xin and that man poured wine and talked under the plum blossom tree. After so many years, he still didn't forget that face.
"Big brother, I must be the leader. I want to be that man." That year, Cao Xin entered the Yun Hai gang. He was also high-spirited, but years of ups and downs made his edges and corners flattened. Now he has no fighting spirit.
"Men step on other people's bones. Maybe in the end, you will find that it is best to be an ordinary person. That kind of feeling of a knife on the neck in the next moment, I have endured for many years. "The man drank a mouthful of wine. The plum blossom fell into the wine, making a slight ripple.
"I have been an ordinary person for too long. I don't want to be bullied." Cao Xin raised the wine glass and drank it. His face and neck were red as he shouted. The man opposite him just smiled and didn't say much.
The man in Cao Xin's memory slowly changed. He was covered in blood, with a broken knife in his body, sitting in front of him. The corner of his mouth was still smiling. He looked at Cao Xin and said, "In the future, it will be your own road."
After that, the man's figure changed again. He turned into a skeleton and fell to the soil under the plum blossom tree. Cao Xin looked at the wine glass opposite him. At this time, the plum blossom tree had withered. The bare branches dripped with blood.
Cao Xin fell on his back. There was a trace of blood on his neck. He fell to the ground. The hard soil had a different familiar feeling and a coldness that he had never felt before.
The plum blossom fell, covering his eyes, mouth, and nose. His nose smelled the smell of death. Maybe when his big brother died, he was also like him! There was relief, unwillingness, but more of the powerlessness of the end.
Nie Li put the knife into the sheath, turned around and walked towards Cao Xin's house. The wind blew, and a few plum blossom fell. Cao Xin's body was buried in the red soil. His bones followed the years, in the same place, with the same person.
In the past, under the plum blossom tree, Yin and Yang met nine times. Now, the red flowers buried the bones. This tree has grown two people.
The interior of the house was very simple. It wasn't as luxurious as Nie Li had imagined. After rummaging through the room, Nie Li found a jade pendant. The jade pendant was gentle and soft to the touch. Nie Li carefully examined it and found that it was a phoenix. Looking at the craftsmanship and carving, he felt that it was a priceless treasure.
He picked it up and looked at it carefully. Through the light from the window, he found that the inside of the jade pendant had red silk threads, which connected into a tree. Looking at it as a whole, it looked like a phoenix resting on a tree. The magnificent appearance made people linger and forget to leave.
Nie Li never thought that Mu Si's jade pendant would be so beautiful. With just one look, he could tell that it was not an ordinary item. Mu Si was probably not as simple as he seemed to be. The changing iron fan and the expensive jade pendant all told Nie Li that he was not a simple person.
Carrying the jade pendant, Nie Li knocked on Mu Si's door. Mu Si was surprised to see Nie Li in front of her. Although it had only been a few days, it had been a long time. Mu Si thought that Nie Li had already left. But now that he was standing in front of her again, he seemed to be a different person. He was even colder than the first time she saw him.
"Your jade pendant." Nie Li took out the jade pendant from his pocket and handed it to Mu Si. Then he turned and left. Mu Si held the jade pendant in her hand and stared at it for a long time without saying a word. She only reacted when Nie Li had already left.
"Nie Li, thank you, that." Mu Si said to Nie Li's back. She never thought that he would do so many things for the promise he made to her.
"Let's meet again if fate wills it!" Nie Li did not look back. He left with his bag and wooden box and left. Mu Si murmured in a low voice, "Let's meet again if fate wills it." She held the jade pendant tightly in her hand. The tree in the jade pendant began to appear, and the phoenix seemed to be moving.
Nie Li carried his bag and wooden box and walked directly to Fang Mansion. Seeing that it was Nie Li, the servants in the mansion did not stop him. Nie Li walked to the hall and saw Fang Tong and Bai Lu sitting down to discuss something. He took the initiative to call them.
Fang Tong did not expect Nie Li to come back so soon. She hurriedly put her arm around Nie Li's shoulder and let him sit down. She acted like they were close friends and did not mind that Nie Li interrupted her conversation with Bai Lu.
"Brother Fang, I killed Cao Xin," Nie Li said directly. Fang Tong had done him a favor, so he did not hide it.
Fang Tong was stunned. He did not expect Nie Li to kill his subordinate. However, he was not angry. Although Cao Xin was his subordinate, because he joined the gang at the same time as him, they could be considered as old rivals.
"It's okay. Although Cao Xin was a member of the Cloud Sea Gang, he always did things his own way. He secretly did a lot of things behind my back. I took care of him because his brother asked me to take care of him before he died, so I took action." Fang Tong signaled Nie Li not to mind and handed him a cup of tea.
"Also, I killed Xie Peng." Nie Li threw another bomb, which made Fang Tong and Bai Lu open their mouths in shock.
"Brother Nie, tell me everything you know." Fang Tong pulled up a stool and sat beside Nie Li. She wasn't angry, but she never thought that Nie Li would be the one who killed Xie Peng. Seeing how anxious Fang Tong was, Nie Li told her about the conflict between Zhou Qing and Xie Peng.
"Zhou Qing, who is this person?" Fang Tong was also puzzled. He had never heard of this person in his gang.
"I heard from Zhou Qing's sworn brother that Zhou Qing was the adopted son of the previous leader of the Cloud Sea Gang, Zhou Hong." Nie Li told him what he heard from Zhou Yue.
"I don't have much of an impression of Brother Zhou's adopted son. You also know that in our line of work, our heads can fall to the ground at any time. We don't dare to casually expose our family background. " Fang Tong said. Perhaps this was the case. He did not marry and have children in his life. Perhaps he knew his own ending and did not want to drag innocent people with him.
"Zhou Hong's son told me that Zhou Qing killed Zhou Hong with poison." Nie Li told him what Zhou Yue told him.
"He used poison, but Brother Zhou was framed and killed by a knife. However, Brother Zhou's strength was greatly reduced that day. It must have something to do with this matter! The big brother that Cao Xin followed was also killed in that battle. Before he died, the Gang Leader gave me his command medallion and covered my escape. I escaped with the Gang Leader's command medallion and took the position of Gang Leader of the Sea of Clouds Gang. " Fang Tong's voice was low. Recalling that matter, the hatred in his eyes was about to spew out flames of anger.
"I suspect that this person is still in the Cloud Sea Gang. Based on the information he gave me about Xie Peng and Cao Xin, it means that he has always been in the dark." Nie Li said his opinion.
"Thank you, Brother Nie. Let me catch this person. I must burn his bones and scatter his ashes as a sacrifice to my brother's soul in heaven." Fang Tong suddenly slammed the iron balls in his hand and pressed them on the wooden table. The three iron balls all sank into the table, but there was not a single crack around them. One could imagine how amazing the strength and control of his strength was.
Fang Tong took a sip of tea, looked at Bai Lu, and said, "I originally thought that the person who killed Xie Peng was an old man in the gang. I didn't expect it to be Brother Nie. I reckon that Zhou Qing is related to the old man in the gang. Now, I hope that Brother Nie can help me."
"My life depends on Brother Fang. As for what you need, just say it. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse."
"Take a look at the martial arts of the people in the courtyard." Fang Tong pointed. These people practiced day and night, and were incomparably tough. Nie Li was secretly speechless.
"Not bad. Their blood and Qi are turbulent. Although their martial arts are not very profound, they have a tyrannical body and experienced moves." Nie Li carefully observed and then said. Internal force cultivation methods were scarce. Moreover, the poor studied while the rich practiced martial arts. Fang Tong could not afford to raise dozens of people. Therefore, these people were all in the Eviscerate and Viscera Training stage.
"I can't provide them with superior martial arts, so I can only do this. However, I hope that you can bring them to a higher level. "
"What do you mean, Big Brother Fang? What virtue and ability do I have to have such ability?"
"I want to privately set up an organization that will only listen to my orders. I want you and Bai Lu to lead it together. You can be my knife in the dark. Although it is a very dangerous matter, I can't think of anyone more suitable than you."
Nie Li did not expect that he would be entrusted with such an important task by Fang Tong as soon as he entered the Cloud Sea Gang. Although he was grateful in his heart, he also felt pressure. He could foresee the strength of the enemies that the Cloud Sea Gang and Fang Tong would face. However, a gentleman would die for his friends. Fang Tong treated him so courteously, he had no reason to refuse.
"Okay." Nie Li nodded in agreement. Fang Tong smiled, then stood up and pulled Nie Li outside. Behind them, Bai Lu said in a clear voice.
"Brothers, please stop. From today onwards, you will be led by Bai Lu and Nie Li. The organization will be called the Ghost Mansion. A hundred ghosts will walk out at night and will act as the Mansion's judge. "
"You all should hurry up with your training. I will make clothes and masks for you. In the future, you will be the ghosts of the night and kill all the disloyal and unrighteous people in the world."
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The deafening sounds of killing and everyone's fighting spirit infected Nie Li. His eyes flashed with a red light, and the demonic intent in his heart began to stir.
"Brother Nie, you should stay in the Mansion and train with them. First, you can increase your strength, and second, you can get familiar with each other."
For the next few days, Nie Li stayed in the Fang Mansion and trained with everyone. At the beginning, everyone was still prejudiced against Nie Li. A fourteen to fifteen-year-old child was actually riding on their heads. If such a thing happened to anyone, they wouldn't be happy.
But after a few days of contact, Nie Li's tyrannical martial arts and pure internal energy shocked them. Even if they were in the Viscera Training Stage, they would not be able to gain an advantage over Nie Li. And this was under the condition that he did not use his blade.
No one would look down on him because of this. From the beginning to the end, his blade had not been unsheathed. Nie Li had the aura of a blade user, overbearing and fierce.
That pair of eyes told them everything. This person was very powerful, even if his strength was not.
