As the rain continued to fall, Old Qi's eyes gradually became unfocused. He was also panting more than he was exhaling. Boss Gao hugged Old Qi and was in a daze. Old Qi trembled as he took out a hairpin from his bosom and wrapped it in a cloth.
This was something he had treasured for many years, just to return it to Chun Mei, Zhang Huaiyu. "After so many years, your eyes still haven't changed at all." Old Qi spread out the handkerchief, and a gold and jade hairpin lay quietly inside.
The polishing of time made the jade rounder and fuller. Chun Mei also didn't expect that the kindness she unintentionally set up many years ago would be repaid today. It was just that this return gift was too precious.
"Miss Zhang, at the end, I want to ask you a question." Old Qi spoke with a little more vigor, and his face was a little ruddy. He seemed to be getting better, but everyone knew that this was a sign of terminal lucidity.
"Ask." Zhang Qingyu took the hairpin and held it in her hand. People were about to die, she didn't want to let down her savior. Although she was also kind to him, the kindness of these two people, in her opinion, was somewhat unequal.
"Why did you change your name to Chun Mei?" Old Qi asked an insignificant question.
"Because the plum of early spring is lonely and desolate, with the intention of death, waiting for the arrival of abundant spring, and then wither and die." Chun Mei said flatly. Nie Li heard this sentence and couldn't help but look sideways.
It turned out that this name had such a deep meaning, but listening to her words, it seemed that she was hiding something, and the strong intention of death was real.
"The plum of early spring? Although lonely, it is the most beautiful and unique in the barren land. "Old Qi smiled and thought of Chun Mei in his heart. His eyes slowly closed and he passed away.
Boss Gao didn't howl in grief. He seemed to have lost his mind. Nie Li understood that kind of pain. It was the hidden sadness of the death of a loved one. It was the pain of tears and crying that couldn't be vented.
No one knew how to comfort him. Even if he was wrong, he did it to save his brother. Boss Gao held Old Qi's body, walked out of the mansion, and left. The rain from the sky wet his back, and the dark clouds covered the sky, without a trace of light.
"Little Head Mo, can you tell me the truth now?" Nie Li didn't pay too much attention to Old Qi. Although Old Qi had sacrificed his life to save Chun Mei, in Nie Li's heart, he was just someone who deserved his gratitude.
He was a good person. Just like Old Qi had said, he believed that there were good people and bad people in this world. It was just a matter of making different choices. Perhaps a good person could turn bad in the next second. A person who valued friendship and righteousness a moment ago might run away alone the next moment.
But there were always such people, and there were also special people. In this heartless Jianghu, they emitted their own light, told their own stories, and cherished the feelings that had lasted for decades.
"Like I said, Wang Xingfeng helped Wang Huaili get those equipment. There's no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world." Little Head Mo smiled. Old Qi's death didn't cause much of a ripple in his eyes.
"Then why didn't you take down Wang Huaili earlier?" Nie Li's voice gradually turned cold. If Little Head Mo and Wang Zhi had taken down Wang Huaili earlier, none of this would've happened.
"You have to ask Lord Wang about this. This is his order. I'm just following orders. " Little Head Mo hurriedly threw the blame to Wang Zhi. As for Wang Zhi's idea, he could roughly guess that he was casting a long line to catch a big fish.
As for the death of a few people, it was inevitable. At least in the eyes of those people, the life and death of people like Old Qi could be completely ignored. This wasn't cold-heartedness. It was just that the way they saw the world was different.
"I'll ask him later. Now I have to find a way to get rid of this blood formation." Nie Li knew that he couldn't get any more information from Little Head Mo. But looking at the five blood seals and the huge blood pool in the air, this thing must be removed, otherwise it would be a disaster.
"This Minor Nine Blood Yin Formation must have a medium. If you want it to disappear, you have to bear its blood." Little Head Mo's eyes were dignified. He looked at the blood seals in four directions. At this time, the blood seals had no blood supply, which meant that the blood pool had been formed and was just waiting for someone to pick the fruit of victory.
"Then you go!" Nie Li said directly. He didn't want to get involved with this kind of formation that harmed others for his own benefit. He still had the only good in his heart.
"Ah! This thing is extremely yin and evil. My cultivation method is not suitable. If I forcibly absorb it, I will die. But you, you are a perfect match. " Little Head Mo didn't expect that Nie Li would give up this delicious cake. This thing was very tempting. Just look at the end of Wang Huaili and Zhang Junshi.
"No, this blood pool condensed from the blood of eighty girls, I can't bear it." Nie Li shook his head. This thing was very tempting to him. His magic core was constantly trembling, and a desire was slowly invading his body.
But eighty girls, that was eighty fresh lives. He couldn't be as cruel as Zhang Junshi. Moreover, he looked at Chun Mei beside him. She was also in danger because of this blood formation. She definitely didn't want to go alone.
"Nie Li, except for you, no one can take this blood formation. No one can get rid of it." Little Head Mo said firmly. There was a rare trace of seriousness in his tone.
With Little Head Mo like this, it was already over. Now, he just had to say goodbye to Fang Tong and leave Cloud Sea City. He didn't want to care about all of this anymore.
"Chun Mei, let's go." Nie Li wanted to take her away. Maybe he couldn't give her too much, but Chun Mei had gone through thick and thin with him. He didn't want her to continue falling.
"Okay!" Chun Mei pulled on the corner of Nie Li's clothes. A strange fragrance entered Nie Li's nose. He took a sniff. This was different from her usual elegant self.
He pulled Chun Mei and turned to leave. Nie Li's eyes inexplicably blurred. A blood-red color flashed in front of his eyes. The world in front of him became blurry. He couldn't help blinking his eyes. When he opened them again, the scene in front of him was still the same.
However, Chun Mei's hand that was pulling on the corner of his clothes slowly loosened. Nie Li turned around and saw Chun Mei fall. Nie Li's eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. He wrapped his arms around Chun Mei's waist. "Nie Li." Chun Mei's weak voice sounded. There was a trace of blood on the corner of her mouth. The Kanzaki in her eyes was getting weaker.
Wasn't she fine just now? How did she become like this in the blink of an eye? "Chun Mei, hold on. Mo Xiaotou, help me." Nie Li hugged Chun Mei tightly in his arms. It was as if she would flow away like the rain in the next second.
Mo Xiaotou didn't hesitate. He squatted down and casually placed his hand on Chun Mei's wrist. He pretended to be deep in thought. His brows were tightly knitted. After a long time, he sighed.
Mo Xiaotou didn't dare to look at Nie Li as he lowered his head and said, "She's poisoned." Nie Li felt as if he was struck by lightning. He recalled Wang Huaili's last words. Could it be this? Chun Mei's death was a big gift to him.
"Bastard, why didn't you guys do anything? If you guys had done it earlier, there wouldn't have been so much trouble." Nie Li punched Mo Xiaotou's mouth. The huge force caused him to fall to the ground. If he and Wang Zhi had done it earlier, Chun Mei wouldn't have been involved in this matter. She would have been able to quietly cut the plum blossoms in the courtyard.
"Even if you kill me now, she's already incurable." Mo Xiaotou got up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.
"Why, why, she could have been safe and sound. Why did you have to involve her in this matter? Why did you let her become the victim of the battle between Zhang Junshi and Wang Huaili? " Nie Li hugged Chun Mei. Her vitality was already very weak. His eyes were red as he roared loudly.
"Because she's called Zhang Qingyu. She's Zhang Junshi's sister. Apart from you, it's destined to be her." Mo Xiaotou's expression was dull.
"Okay, you guys won't save her. I'll do it." Nie Li's eyes flashed with determination. Presumably, these people had already achieved their goal. Naturally, they wouldn't care about the life and death of others.
"Nie Li, there's no need. I know my own body. It's just that in the future, I'll let you face so many unknown dangers alone. "Chun Mei leaned her head on Nie Li's chest and slowly closed her eyes.
"Don't sleep, I'll save you." Nie Li was a little anxious. He knew what this closing of eyes represented. It was death, endless darkness and the next life's reincarnation.
"Nie Li, I'm very happy to know you." "No, I'm not happy to know you at all. You always cause me trouble."
"Nie Li, you've always saved me. Next time, I'll protect you!" "Okay, I'll let you protect me, but you're not allowed to fall asleep."
"Nie Li, the last sentence, if a woman gives you a knife color in the future, please remember to be good to her." The two people's words came to an end in Chun Mei's powerless hands hanging down. For a long time, there was no sound. Nie Li quietly hugged Chun Mei. Only the patter of rain was heard.
"I'm going to kill Wang Huaili." Nie Li found that he had no tears, but two sparkling tears had already rolled over.
"With your current strength, it's impossible to kill Wang Huaili." Mo Xiaotou's expression became a little strange. There seemed to be a trace of expectation in his eyes.
"I'm going to become stronger, stronger." Nie Li's eyes gradually lost their spirit. A strong evil aura gathered between his eyebrows. His pupils were full of black, like a vortex that could devour people.
"Then go and absorb the blood array, so you can become stronger." Mo Xiaotou's mouth raised an evil smile, and his low voice constantly tempted Nie Li.
"Absorb the blood array." Nie Li hugged Chun Mei and walked to the eye of the array. The blood pool above his head began to pour, and a majestic force poured into his body.
Nie Li didn't feel sad or happy, only the thought of becoming stronger. Chun Mei in his hand gradually withered, withered into blood, and integrated into Nie Li's body.
"Then I can always protect you." Chun Mei's voice echoed in his ears. Nie Li raised his head in confusion and found that she didn't exist, but she existed in another form.
The blood in the blood pool poured down, like a waterfall, and smashed on Nie Li's head. There was blood in front of him, and there were no other colors, but he seemed to see the plum blossoms, the last beautiful plum blossoms, and also the sigh of early spring.
The twelfth lunar month was about to pass, and spring was not far away.
Looking at Nie Li wrapped in the blood cocoon, the smile on Mo Xiaotou's mouth gradually disappeared. After a long time, he glanced at the door and kept looking. There was a woman in palace dress there.
