Nine hundred and ninetieth chapters pay(1/2)
There was dead silence in the conference room of Luming Pavilion.
Not only Nan Nan and the subordinates behind him, but also the other participants widened their eyes in shock, and a cold air rushed up involuntarily on the back of their heads.
It seems like someone drove a car and robbed the food reserves of the Yizhou Giant Panda Base...
The big tengu can hardly be called a good guy.
Originally, he thought he would see quarrels and infighting today, but unexpectedly, Huai Shi skipped all the steps and quickly went into full liquidation.
Moreover, Lu Ming Guan is required to come and do it himself, killing his own people and giving Huai Shi the whole job!
Is this still possible?
This is no longer a show of shame, but a direct loss of power and humiliation to the country.
If Nanfang dares to nod his head, let alone others, the people below will probably start singing "Miluo Yuan Shui Luan Pai Bo", and maybe God will punish his whole family.
For a moment, he froze, and his original motion of bowing his head in submission stopped in place.
Huai Shi seemed to be aware of the eyes behind Nan Nan that were about to burst out with anger, and nodded clearly: "Indeed, it would be too merciless to let Mr. Nan Nan kill his subordinates..."
"Please show me your noble hand."
Nanfang's expression twitched violently, he lowered his head stiffly, and squeezed out a forced smile to please. He asked for a high price, and paid back the money on the spot. The temporary embarrassment was nothing, as long as everything could be wiped away, it would be easy to talk about.
"That's not impossible."
Huai Shi glanced at the old man who was bowing his head and told him: "But you have to express your apology, Mr. Nanfang. You are so condescending, I thought I did something wrong..."
"..."
Nan Nan lowered his head, stiffened for a long time, and said with difficulty: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault!"
But Huai Shi seemed not to have heard it.
He just turned around in confusion and looked at the people around him: "I don't know much about it. Is this how Yingzhou people apologize? Why is it different from what I heard..."
Dead silence, long dead silence.
Nan Nan seemed to be petrified, the veins on the back of his hands burst out, and he clutched the robe on his knees. After a long time, he slowly stood up, and knelt on the ground amidst the cries of grief and indignation from his subordinates.
He closed his eyes.
Put your hands on the ground and lower your head.
Earth seat.
"Please, forgive me."
In this conference room, the only sound was the sound of tea cups falling to the floor, which was so harsh.
All the participants looked at each other in shock. They had never expected to see such a spectacle. Even the big tengu's drink leaked from the corners of his mouth. He had never seen such a battle in his old age...
Under the sunshine outside the window, Huai Shi sat on a chair, lowered his head, and looked down at the figure kneeling to apologize.
There is no pride or ridicule whatsoever.
Calm as ever.
Just nod.
"Very good. Now that you've acknowledged your mistake, I don't need to say anything else." He pressed Nan Nan's shoulder and comforted him, "Just follow the traditions of Yingzhou -"
As he spoke, he reached out behind him.
Yuan Yuan took a step forward and handed over the gift that Huai Shi brought.
A slender wooden box with elegant workmanship and exquisite decoration. When opened, the brocade laid inside is revealed, as well as a pocket knife forged by Huai Shi himself.
Special alchemical steel from the Damba smelting plant is selected, inlaid with gold and jade, and the pure white shark skin is spotless.
It is indeed the best choice for home travel and gifts for relatives and friends.
At this moment, it was delivered to Nan Nan's dull face.
Accompanied by Huai Shi's orders.
"——Have a caesarean section, Mr. Nanbu."
The silence was broken, someone slapped the table angrily, stood up, and wanted to scold him, but the moment Huaishi raised his head and looked over, he was frozen by the cold gaze.
Not ferocious, not angry, just calm, like a dark abyss, reflecting every trembling soul and freezing the words he wanted to say.
He froze in place, not daring to move anymore.
"how?"
Huaishi asked, "Is something wrong?"
No one responded.
Ever since he stepped into this conference room, the murderous intention brewing in his chest had no longer been concealed. It came out from his stern look, warning everyone who dared to interrupt.
Whoever touches it will die!
When he comes here today, he must die. Otherwise, is he here just to show off and teach others the principles of kindness and forgiveness?
The truth has already been explained.
Now it’s time to settle accounts!
Even if it's every penny, every penny...
Huaishi lowered her head, overlooking the opponent at her feet, and warned in a cold voice: "Master Nanfang, the time has come to show your warrior character, don't let people down!"
"I...I..."
Nan Nan stared blankly at the sword in front of him, his lips pursed, unable to make a sound.
He wanted to ask Huai Shi if he was crazy. Do you want to cause a war? But when he saw those eyes, he understood the answer.
These lunatics leave no room at all!
I won't give him any other choice...
Either he dies here today, or both sides start an all-out war,
But when he turned around blankly and looked behind him, he found that there was silence, without any voice, and no one even stood up to defend him.
Only the indifferent overlook came from the deepest part of Luming Pavilion.
He finally realized it and smiled bitterly.
Now that things have happened, what else can be said?
In addition, is there any way to avoid this unjust war caused by the Yingzhou genealogy, and is there any way to preserve one's own family?
He closed his eyes, reached out, took the sword in Huai Shi's hand, and drew the sword out of its sheath.
The sharp blade reflected the decayed face, and he bit it between his teeth. Then, he pulled open the skirt of his clothes with both hands, exposing his chest and abdomen.
Sit upright.
The sound of the blade stabbing was so low that everyone's eyelids jumped wildly. Along with the sound of cutting across, viscous liquid flowed out.
"Come!"
Nan Nan straightened his body, raised his head, and glared at Huai Shi.
Huai Shi remained indifferent and just waved his hand.
Yuan Yuan stepped out behind him, pulled out his heavy long sword, and stepped past. The moment he passed by, a perfect arc appeared from the sky.
The majestic sound like the world turning spreads from the sword.
The solemn iron light cut off the last bond.
It illuminated his cloudy pupils.
That fleeting light is so beautiful and thrilling.
"It's so beautiful..."
Nan Nan admired softly, his old body lying on the ground, making no sound anymore.
Only the blood spread silently.
There was dead silence.
Yuan Yuan moved his wrist slightly to shake off the blood, sheathed the sword and put it in the box, and returned behind the teacher.
Her work is done.
For a long time, in the silence where only heavy breathing was left, Huai Shi waved his hand and wiped away the blood drops on his sleeves, and finally looked away from the ground.
There was no wild laughter, no indifferent scorn.
Just calm.
Looking back, I looked down at those expressions that were either dull or sad and angry.
"Thanks to everyone's misplaced love, you have put so many expectations on me that I shouldn't have. So much so that you always want to teach me some principles of life..."
He said softly, "Maybe you think I am the same as you, but in fact, I am different from you. I have never wanted to play games with you.
