Chapter 352 [Fire of Jealousy] (1)
Luo Lie said: "Feng Jiuqing's current strength is unfathomable. Even if we gather the strength of all of us, we may not have a chance to win."
Lan Ximei said: "Others don't have it, you must have it. She chose to leave because she was afraid of you in Feiying Castle."
Luo Lie did not deny this, which was one of the reasons why Feng Jiuqing chose to become a partner. Although Feng Jiuqing did not say what she wanted to do, Luo Lie could also guess that her search for him must be related to the matter of Jiuding.
Lan Ximei also saw this: "Feng Jiuqing chose you to cooperate, because she should not be able to complete this task with her personal strength. You two can be considered as mutual appreciation."
Luo Lie smiled and said nothing.
Lan Ximei said: "Of course, it is not ruled out that she falls in love with you."
Luo Lie really admired her imagination and said laughing and crying: "She is old enough to be my mother."
Lan Ximei said: "Friendships are not about age. There are many things about old couples and young couples in this world."
Luo Lie said: "Let's talk about business."
Lan Ximei said: "Those who get the Nine Cauldrons will win the world. If the Nine Cauldrons really exist, they cannot fall into the hands of the Japanese."
Luo Liedao: "Even if the Nine Cauldrons left by the Dayu era really exist, they may not be able to play the role of determining the Central Plains of the Ding. Their role may be deliberately exaggerated and just a tool used by the rulers to control the people."
Lan Ximei said, "I don't care, I'm going to settle the Nine Cauldrons anyway."
Luo Lie looked at Lan Ximei with a decisive expression and said, "I don't understand. Even if you get all the Nine Cauldrons, what's the point? Do you really want to win the world and become the emperor?"
Lan Ximei said, "If I become the emperor, I will marry you and be my only queen. If you dare not obey, I will chop your head."
Luo Lie sighed and said, "As for this reason, I must stop you. I really want you to get what you want. I'm afraid I won't have a good life."
Lan Ximei said shyly: "Since the day you met me, you are destined to have no good life. If you want to escape from my palm, there is no way!"
Luo Lie looked at the shy and charming Lan Ximei and couldn't help but feel moved. Putting aside the position of both sides, Lan Ximei can be regarded as a deep affection for her. Since the two met, she has never done anything that really harmed her.
Luo Lie said: "Actually, there is no need to interfere in this matter. You have seen Feng Jiuqing's power. I promise you that if you find Jiuding, I will never hide it from you, but you'd better not intervene in this matter."
Lan Ximei keenly noticed the hidden meaning in his words and said softly: "Are you worried about me?"
Luo Lie said: "I'm just worried that you will cause unnecessary trouble to me, but it will ruin my big deal."
Lan Ximei said, "I believe in you!"
Luo Lie was stunned, but he didn't expect that Lan Ximei agreed so happily.
Lan Ximei took a thick envelope to Luo Lie's chest: "The information inside should be of some use to you."
Luo Lie said: "Thank you!"
Lan Ximei said: "You must be careful that Song Changjin. This person is an old fox that you don't recognize relatives and may betray you at any time."
Luo Lie said: "I will be more careful."
Lan Ximei said: "The archaeological team formed by Sparrow is full of powerful figures. You lack care alone. I know you have the ability, so you should not be overly arrogant in everything. I really don't consider asking your old friends to come over?"
Luo Lie shook his head and said, "Feng Jiuqing is difficult to deal with. If there are too many people, it will be troublesome. Since she took the initiative to come to me, she would not have too many tricks before finding Jiuding."
Lan Ximei said: "Since you are sure, even if I think too much, I have written some addresses in this envelope. If you encounter trouble or need help, you can go to the nearest address for help."
Luo Lie nodded and said softly: "You should take care of yourself too."
Lan Ximei looked at him, and her eyes turned red for some reason. Suddenly she threw herself into Luo Lie's arms. Luo Lie had already expected what she was going to do, but she did not choose to hide. She let Lan Ximei's soft jade and warm fragrance pounce into her arms. Lan Ximei hugged him tightly and said, "I just want to hug you well, don't push me away."
Luo Lie stood there quietly, letting Lan Ximei hug her tighter and tighter. Although he did not take the initiative to hug Lan Ximei from beginning to end, Lan Ximei let him go, and said happily on her pretty face: "I know, you like me too, right?"
Luo Lie didn't say anything.
Lan Ximei said, "I know even if you don't admit it." After saying this, she did not stop and opened the door and walked out.
Luo Lie turned around and walked out of the door, but found that it was raining heavily outside at some point. He remembered something, took out an umbrella from behind the door, and when he returned to the door, he saw that Lan Ximei’s beautiful figure had disappeared in the rain...
Luo Lie's life returned to peace. He started to travel back and forth to the National Library every day, collecting information from all aspects and studying the information given to him by Lan Ximei. The Sparrow did not take the initiative to find him, and even Song Changjin lost trace during this period. According to the time given by the Sparrow, he should have set off this week.
Luo Lie has already tidied up his suitcase, and this month he has begun to get used to living alone.
The night was already falling outside the window, and the early summer wind was stuffy and humid. Luo Lie decided to go out for a walk. When he went to close the window, he found three cars slowly heading towards this side in the distance. Luo Lie hesitated for a moment, turned around and went to the north window. In the alley behind, there were several figures approaching quickly towards the back door of the building.
An ominous feeling surged into Luo Lie's heart. He intuition judged that these people should be coming for him. He inserted the door, picked up his suitcase, opened the window on the north side, and was sure that all the people below had entered the small building. He immediately crawled out of the window, jumped gently, and landed steadily on the ground from the second floor.
Luo Lie quickly walked out of the north alley. When he left the entrance of the alley, he heard the sound of the door being kicked open. Luo Lie did not turn around and continued walking forward.
He called a rickshaw on the side of the road, took it in, and told the driver the address.
The coachman pulled the rickshaw and ran towards his destination. A muffled thunder came from the air, indicating that a heavy rain was coming.
Luo Lie silently considered the purpose of these people coming. The biggest possibility was that the case was unfinished. Yu Weiguo's death is still on his head. Although the rumors have passed, the police have put the case aside. However, the Yu family still pursued him relentlessly and offered a huge reward of 100,000 oceans. There must be brave men under the heavy reward. There are many people who are moved by this huge wealth.
It is naturally no problem to deal with the people just now with Luo Lie's ability, but he didn't want to attract too much attention, especially when he was about to leave.
During this period of time in Ying Tian, he was always vigilant. The possibility of being discovered by others was not very high. The acquaintances he had come into contact with were only a few. Does the problems occur among these people? Luo Lie checked people who might have problems one by one in his mind.
At this time, the rain had already started, and light was casting from behind. Luo Lie realized that a car was catching up.
The coachman was still running with big strides, but his running speed was obviously not comparable to the speed of the car. A car surpassed the rickshaw from behind. The driver controlled the car to block the rickshaw in front of the rickshaw. The coachman stopped urgently due to this sudden situation. Because of the inertia, he still ran forward a few times before stopping the rickshaw.
Luo Lie sat firmly in the rickshaw, and he knew that this battle could no longer be avoided.
The coachman apologized repeatedly, Luo Lie smiled, took out a piece of silver and handed it to him, and said to the coachman: "Brother, please go quickly, go as far as you can."
The coachman was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the customer would give such a large payment for the car, but at this time two more cars arrived later. Five people came out of the three cars, and the more than ten people were all holding weapons.
The coachman then understood why Luo Lie asked him to leave quickly. He was so scared that he pulled up a rickshaw and escaped from the gap surrounded by three cars. The uninvited guests did not stop the coachman.
Luo Lie stood in the wind and rain with his suitcase in his arms, and smiled and said, "It's not like this heavy rain to rest at home, are you rushing to die?"
"Ah!" With a powerful shout, a burly man with a fierce look rushed up, and a bright mountain-cut sword in his hand broke through the wind and rain and slashed at Luo Lie. Luo Lie was almost in seclusion and practiced unknowingly. The sword that the other party cut with all his strength was terrifying and fast, but it was extremely slow in Luo Lie's eyes.
Luo Lie had an extra butterfly knife in his right hand, and he waved it at will. The butterfly knife drew a light like a sudden electric shock. He had already cut the pulse gate of the opponent's right wrist before the slashing sword hit him.
The strong man felt a severe pain in his wrist. He looked down and saw red blood mist spraying out from the wound. Luo Lie's body was shuttled back and forth between the crowd, like a ghost, with the butterfly knife in his hand full of cold light. Any time he took action, he would be fine.
In a blink of an eye, all the fifteen people who came to siege him were knocked to the ground by him. The blood flowed from these people was washed by the rain and flowed on the ground, forming a red stream.
Luo Lie took back the butterfly knife, and there was no trace of blood on his body. Luo Lie was too lazy to take a look at the group of struggling and wailing guys on the ground, so he quickly left the scene.
The sparrow did not expect Luo Lie to visit late at night. Seeing that Luo Lie was soaked, she said in surprise: "What happened?"
Luo Lie said: "I encountered some trouble and my journey was exposed." The sparrow invited him to the room and asked Luo Lie to take a shower and change clothes first. Then he asked Li's mother to go around the building to observe to see if anyone was following him.
After Luo Lie took a shower and changed his clothes, he came to the living room. The sparrow had prepared supper for him.
Luo Lie said: "I'm not hungry."
The sparrow said: "I made it myself, you can try it."
Luo Lie said: "I'd better leave as soon as possible to save you trouble."
