Chapter 121 [Scholars die for confidants]
A radish stick was placed on the strong and fragrant chestnut rice porridge. This was a good thing that needed to be marinated with salt. It was very expensive. Add a plate of cold chicken skin, wild onion tofu, sun eggs, and a basket of white small buns with large fillings. The fragrance came to your face.
"Brother Nie Zhu, the buns are made by brother, and the porridge is rice washed by grass. It looks very hot and tastes great. You have to drink a few more bowls so that grass will be happy."
During the days of "Imprisonment" in the Bai family, Cao'er was Nie Zhu's best friend. Her relationship with Nie Zhu started with curiosity. At first, she was a little scared, but later she found that this bearded brother could laugh, and became familiar with him after a while. The stories told by Cao'er were actually very bad, and he often made his own decisions and changed them to his own version. But Nie Zhu always listened to him very happily. Every time he saw Cao'er, he would think of his childhood sister... The sister was easy to learn, and he would secretly eavesdrop on the teacher's lecture outside the school hall of the noble family, and then told him the brother that the little girl in front of him should be much smaller than her sister, but in his eyes, the lost sister was still Cao'er tied with a pair of buns and a naive face.
Cao'er's skill in watching the fire was not as good as the chestnut porridge was a little smelly, but Nie Zhu still ate it sweetly. He took a sip and praised it, then lowered his head so that the boy would not see the tears in his eyes.
Bai Dong winked at Cao'er. Cao'er stretched out his tongue and ran out, picked up the bamboo chopsticks and picked up a small bag for Nie Zhu, and sighed slightly, "Mr. Jing Gong is not a false alarm. The female merchant was killed by a bandit on the way to transport her young daughter to Qi State. Ling Mei was a coincidence. However, she was not killed. The people we sent to find a subordinate of the merchant after several investigations. After confirming this, they asked the Qi army to turn around and investigate. Although the corpses were everywhere, Ling Mei's body was not found. According to the subordinate's recollection, Ling Mei was betrayed by her clan members and had the most outstanding appearance among the young girls. He would not misread it."
"I have also checked, why didn't I find this clue?" Nie Zhu put down his bowl, his eyes gradually calmed down, and he stared at Bai Dong.
"This is the difference between Ranger and the national power. Our people can connect with each other and even check the local case files of Qi State to find the merchant's subordinates. Although you have a high ability to kill, how can you do this?"
"My ability to kill people seems to be very limited. Otherwise, why wouldn't I not only fail to kill you, but I became a prisoner in your family?"
"Prisoner? Are there any prisoners like you?"
Bai Dong smiled and said, "You are almost the same as being a guest of the Bai family. My sister made porridge for you and watched the fire, and I cooked buns for you. Even my mother told me yesterday that you are actually a pitiful person, so I should not make things difficult for you. In fact, how can I make things difficult for the famous Huiying Nie Zhu?"
"I'm not a poor person!"
"You are! I didn't know much about Wei Wu before he was killed. Instead, I heard a lot about him behind him. This person has medical skills but no medical ethics. Unless he is a noble and rich man, who will make him take action? Why is the only one you, Huiying Nie Zhu, special?"
Bai Dong sneered, "If I was not wrong, when your mother was in a hurry, did you seek medical treatment everywhere but fail to treat it? Finally, when you asked for help in front of the Wei family, you were blocked by the doorman a few times. Later, you passed the famous post before you entered?"
"How do you know?"
Nie Zhu was stunned. It seemed that this boy had seen his experience with his own eyes. He sought medical treatment for his mother that day, but was rejected many times. Later, he bribed the door and received guidance, asking him to go to a scholar to write a famous post. Sure enough, after handing over the door, the Wei Mansion opened wide, and the benefactor came to greet him in person...
"Poor... Huiying Nie Zhu stabbed King Yue to death. He was so famous. Didn't he think that fame was tiring? If I was not wrong, after receiving your famous post, Wei Wuhe not only cured your mother, but also treated you like a brother and a brother, and treated your mother like a biological mother, right? Also, after your mother passed away, Wei Wuhe personally gave you funds to help you find your sister. At the same time, he also made a request, saying that you found your sister, so you don't need to remember what you said today. If you were looking for it, you would have to find your sister. If you don’t have to kill someone for your sister, it’s really touching. Wei Guo Doctor is not just your benefactor, he is simply considering everything for you. He must have said that after you find your sister, don’t be a killer or assassin, you should live a happy life like an ordinary person. You must be moved at that time and you would cry and call me brother if you wish you could give this life to Wei Wuhe. Don’t talk about you anymore. Even if I meet such a good person, I will cry and hold his thigh and call my brother..."
Nie Zhuyue's eyes widened wider and wider: "How could I cry and lose my voice? I wouldn't hug a man's thigh!"
"This is naturally. Brother Nie is a hero in the world and the best assassin in the world. If you want to hug a peerless beauty, how can he hug a man's thigh?"
"you!"
"Kidding, Brother Nie, don't blame me. But have you guessed wrong? Ah, I still haven't guessed it. The one who Wei Wuhe asked you to kill should be the famous doctor in the world, Qin Yue, and Bian Que in the contemporary era, and countless living people, you actually agreed to him?"
"How come you know everything?"
Nie Zhudu was stunned when he heard this. If Bai Dong might even lie about his sister, his experience of dating with his benefactor was absolutely correct. On that day, the benefactor really asked him to kill Qin Yue people, but unfortunately his sister was not found, and Qin Yue people were not found. When he returned to Liyang, he wanted to apologize to his benefactor, but he heard the news of his murder.
Nonsense, what you told me yourself, can I not know? Do you really think hypnosis is for nothing? Stupid! Are the assassins of this era stupid? If someone treats you better, you will even want your life? That stupid guy is like this, Nie Zhu in front of you, and there is a stupider Jing Ke in the future...
Bai Dong sighed inwardly, only to feel that this guy was both cute and pitiful: "I naturally have the means to know, Brother Nie, Brother Nie, what's the point of telling me you! Wei Wuheisu has no cure for the world, and treating your mother's illness is just to use you. He knew that it would be difficult for you to find a sister, so he said such heartwarming words. The purpose is to ask you to be grateful wholeheartedly and help him kill the Qin Yue people whom he hates the most in his life! You are not aware of it being used by him. But you came to kill me. Is it foolish?"
Nie Zhu didn't speak for a long time. He looked up at Bai Dong: "It doesn't matter whether Wei Wuhei uses me or not. It's a fact that he cured my mother, and he treats me like a national sage! Now that he died because of you, I should repay him with a national sage. Killing you is the only way for me to repay my benefactor!"
"Then you won't kill?"
Bai Dong smiled lightly, suddenly stood up, opened the window, and left his back to Nie Zhu: "I sat opposite you and chatted for so long, and I have no guards. You don't have shackles on your hands. If you really want to kill me, I will be dead even if I have a hundred lives, but why don't you do it? Nie Zhu, do you still want to deceive your heart?"
"you......"
Nie Zhu couldn't understand himself, and said he wanted to kill the boy, but he just couldn't do it. Is this still the gray shadow who killed people without blinking? And the boy seemed to be really not afraid of death. Before turning around, he took out a short sword from his sleeve and put it on the table. He could see clearly that it was his fish intestine sword. Although the gray light disappeared, he could still recognize it at a glance.
"You must be very confused. You can be kind enough if you kill me. Why did the dignified Huiying Nie Zhu become an indecisive woman? Let me tell you... You are not a bloodthirsty person by nature, so you must have a reason for killing people. When you know what Wei Wuhe did, you are actually hesitant. You are just sticking to the pitiful spirit of the national sage..."
"Say it again, I'm not a poor person!"
"You are. You are! Have you not found Qin Yue? This is not the case. While searching for this contemporary Bian Que, you heard about his deeds of curing and saving people, saw his noble medical ethics, and saw those patients who were rejuvenated under him, so you chose 'not found'..."
"You're talking nonsense!"
"I didn't say nonsense, you know. You like this place, like Baijiazhuang, like grass, and even like the silk paper I made, but these are just appearances. What you really like is actually the strong family affection here, the simple folk customs, the whole family is like a family atmosphere; because this is the most beautiful picture in your heart, even if you walk in the darkness, you still long for it. Now I let you see it, even in the painting, will you be willing to destroy it? You know, if you kill me, this most beautiful scroll will be broken, so you can't bear to kill me, you can't bear to destroy your dreams in your heart! Nie Zhu, tear off your hypocritical mask, it's very tiring to disguise..."
"I'm not! You're talking nonsense! You're talking nonsense..."
Nie Zhu shouted wildly, he was the coldest assassin and the most professional murderer, how could he have such a weak heart? But it really happened, and this kid saw through it at a glance! What should I do, what should I do?
"Stop being stubborn. Now you just nod your head and you will always have such beauty. You will not be my friend, my subordinate, the dead soldier I raise, you are my brother, just like Li Di and Jing Jian. When you are fine, we can read books, tell stories, and drink. Do you want to take revenge on that stupid Pixiu? It's very easy. I let it stick its butt up and ask you to kick it a few times, just don't try too hard. It's actually very well-behaved. By the way, I am the most selfish person. My brother's sister is gone. I will shamelessly use the power of Qin to find our real sister. If Jing Jian can't find it, I will use money to open the way and buy her news from all over the world! I will find her. She must be a happy bride. Don't you want to marry the girl out in a glorious way?"
Bai Dong's words were full of temptation, just like modern poetry recitation, but every sentence was full of true feelings, not hypnosis, but better than hypnosis. He really missed Nie Zhu and really loved this incomparable national warrior.
Nie Zhu stared at Bai Dong with a changeable expression on his face: "How should I face my benefactor?"
"Easy!"
Picking up the Fish Intestine Sword, Bai Dong cut his sword to his temples, and a strand of hair floated to the ground: "Can you explain this?"
"From today, Nie Zhu's order is brother..."
The seven-foot body landed on the ground with a bang, and Nie Zhu knelt straight in front of Bai Dong.
