In the Blade

The sharp edge of the blade is the ethics of a killer, and the weapon is the persistence of an assassin.

With the gradual polishing, Du Chengfeng gradually felt the life of this short spear.

As he thought before, this short spear was really used by assassins, but the first person to use this short spear was not the assassin in front of him.

The first owner of the short spear was an old man, who looked ordinary and was the kind of person who could not be found in the crowd of shame. He was born to be an assassin. The only problem was that the old man himself had never learned any assassin skills. It was because his wife was sick at home and he lacked such a large sum of money that he ran to be a dead soldier for others and did some killing and murdering activities.

As the saying goes, if you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools. So after being pointed out by the sponsor, the old man asked the blacksmith to make a dagger-like spear blade and matched the pole himself, and then he saved up this short spear.

Since he had never learned any assassination skills, it was difficult for the old man to perform stealth assassination. Basically, every time he assassinated, the old man would be exposed, and then the targets would draw their swords and laugh at the old man holding the dagger.

An inch longer, an inch stronger, is not just a saying, can a sword fight a dagger, can it still lose?

Then they really lost, and the suddenly extended handle directly sent the blade into their chests and abdomens.

The dead naturally can't talk, so no one knows that the old man's dagger can become longer, but as the old man did it more and more times, people also knew that there was a killer who was best at this kind of short-term victory over the long.

It was at this time that the old man's sponsor sent someone to pass on a message to the old man.

"You are famous now, and it will be easier for people to recognize you when you do things in the future. How about this, you step down, recruit some people, and let the young people have some experience." Since then, under the guidance of the unseen sponsor, the old man retired gloriously, and went from a dead man who did dirty work for others to a middleman who led a group of killers. And his telescopic short spear was also passed on to a young killer he was most optimistic about. Unlike the old man who was born as a dead man, when this young killer debuted, the times had changed. The rich men hiding in the dark would no longer look for dead men to work for them one by one, but would go to some killer organizations to hang up their orders - after all, raising dead men requires some personal charm, but hiring killers only requires money. In Du Chengfeng's view, this can also be regarded as a kind of industrial sinking. As a person who has experienced it, the old man once advised the young killer that sometimes he should know when to stop and not go too far - but the young killer was at the age of frivolity, and he wanted to be in the limelight. He didn't even have time to become famous, so he didn't care about the old man's warning.

Especially after he had the telescopic short spear, the young killer was determined to become famous and make a name for himself with his assassination skills.

And the young killer did it.

Relying on this elusive short spear, the young killer hunted every target accurately. Even if he was discovered occasionally, as long as he pulled the pole, he would not suffer any loss in the weapon - but the only difference from the old man was that the young killer had no intention of hiding the short spear.

Or, he had the intention of using a unique assassination method to make a name for himself.

"Just like Fatty Yang using a machete to kill pigs."

Du Chengfeng could understand this idea very well. Good wine will not be known to the public even if it is not well known. Even if you have a lot of skills, it is useless if others cannot see it. Therefore, it is necessary to create a gimmick first. As for whether this gimmick can really work...

Du Chengfeng can only say that when Fatty Yang kills pigs at home and eats meat, he always bleeds them properly without doing anything fancy.

But it is obvious that the gimmick of the young killer is really useful. Many targets who are assassinated don't know how to target him even if they know that he has a retractable short spear. After all, this thing can not only extend, but also retract. Under the use of the young killer, this short spear is like a flexible venomous snake, killing people is as easy as taking something out of a bag.

Relying on this short spear and the matching skills that the young killer has figured out, the young killer quickly became famous. But when he wanted to go back to find the old man who passed the short spear to him and wanted to show off his achievements, he found that the old man had moved away at some point and didn't even leave him a letter.

So the young killer simply continued to kill.

It was definitely not enough to be famous. He had to continue to climb up, and climb higher. He also wanted a mansion, a BMW, and a group of wives and concubines. He wanted too many things, so how could he stop here?

So, of course, he killed more.

The evil spirit tortured the spirit of the young killer. The young killer who was greedy for too much was unable to strengthen his will. So, in a failed assassination, the young killer naturally turned into a monster. The spider-like monster spit out the tongue of a poisonous snake and set off a lot of chaos in Jiankang City.

It’s not that no one has thought about subduing this monster, but unlike other monsters that only know how to kill, the monster transformed by this young killer knows how to hide himself. Although he has lost his mind, his assassin skills are more comprehensive in him. Even the plunderers who are good at catching thieves have not been able to find the trace of this monster.

However, someone still found this monster in the underground corridors of Jiankang City.

That was the old man who had given him the spear.

But this time, the old man brought a spear.

The monster transformed by the young killer vaguely remembered some memories about the old man. Since the two sides had some fate, it would of course show the old man the skills he had practiced over the years-so, the twelve spider legs stretched out instantly, and pierced out an airtight web, heading straight for the old man.

It is impossible to block such an overwhelming attack with just a spear. As for counterattack...how could the spear penetrate?

But in the eyes of the monster, the spear really penetrated.

At the moment when the old man thrust out the spear blade, the spear suddenly became as soft as a rope, and the sharp spear head only made a few turns, and nailed the monster to the ground.

"You should be content to die under this national treasure."

As he said this, the old man sighed and picked up the short spear from the monster.

It was at this time that Du Chengfeng, who was watching, realized that this telescopic short spear was a poor imitation of the soft long spear. The hidden rich man had originally intended to test the old man when he gave him advice. After the old man passed the test, he was qualified to use this soft rattan spear.

It was just a qualification. This spear did not belong to the old man. Just like this time, he had to return it after using it.

After handing over the soft rattan spear, the old man returned to his life with the telescopic short spear. During the day, he was like an old man who could be seen everywhere on the roadside, amiable and amiable, but at night, he would turn back into the cold killer middleman and continue to manage this business of killing for a hidden sponsor.

Recently, the old man received a job, saying that he wanted to find someone to assassinate a master from Yizhou in the north, who had even killed the false emperor Jia Wen before.

The old man didn't care who the target was or what he had done. As a man who was born as a dead soldier, he only knew how to do things.

But before the well-trained killer was sent out, the old man thought about it and sent out the re-polished telescopic short spear.

"It must succeed."

The old man instructed.

The killer who was sent out was indeed well-trained, at least in Du Chengfeng's opinion. The other party went all the way to Haizhou until he found the inn where he and the old eunuch stayed, and even lived next door to them, but neither of them could detect anything.

And after the night, the killer took the poisoned short spear and went all the way into the room.

There was no movement during the whole process. The killer was like a non-existent ghost. Even the smell had been covered up, and no one could find his trace - but for safety reasons, the killer still unfolded the short spear in advance to increase the attack distance.

This is a foolproof attack that will not fail no matter what.

But at this moment of victory, Du Chengfeng, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

So, everything was over.

The first update is here, I will continue to write, and I will try to finish the second update before 12 o'clock.
