When Cai Dao Chai came back to his senses, the moon was already in the sky.

"Don't ask me anything?"

Black Shadow seemed startled. "...I see you are stuck in your own mind."

Kitchen Knife Chai took a sip of wine. "You're so considerate of your own goals."

Hei Ying shook his head, "I always feel that you are different. ——Bing, why did you quit the arena back then?"

"I met a girl when I was young. She was very thin, very small, and ugly, like a willow. I stayed with her for half a year, and spent a lot of time raising her to make her fair and tender, but she died. This world is not interesting at all. The reason why I was out of business was because I was greedy for others to call me a hero. Once that child died, I would think about it. What's the point of forcing myself to do good things? It's better to leave."

"Why a butcher?" Black Shadow was puzzled.

"I've had enough wine, I've seen enough people, but I'm only thinking about the girl who likes to eat meat... The girl's life is hard, and she must have not eaten enough when she left." The kitchen knife lowered her head, perhaps smiling, but her expression was blurred in the night . "I spent the last New Year with her in this yard... Although she is gone, there must be someone who wants to go home."

Heiying racked his brains to search for the information of the year in his memory, and suddenly he was blessed: "Her name is Le Yankai?"

Cai Dao Chai glanced at him curiously, "Why do you remember everything. But it's not Le Yankai, it's 'Le' Yankai. This is the name she gave herself. She is probably the only one in the world who can pronounce Le's surname as Happy Le Bar."

"How did she die?"

"The little girl's body is not suitable for practicing kung fu," Caidao Chai narrowed her eyes, and unconsciously looked at the broken moon in the cup, "but she likes the world. She likes it so much that even if she dies, she wants to walk in the world. "

Wuguan's murder list flashed through Heiying's mind, and he said in shock, "Could it be Wuguan...!"

"Ah, it's none of her business. It's because the girl's body couldn't hold it anymore... She had no relationship with the world, but her wish was too strong, and in the end she sacrificed her life for that year's journey in the world."

The shadow was silent for a moment. "Tong Bing, do you like her very much?"

The corner of Caidao Chai's mouth bent unconsciously: "In this life, probably only that period of time can be considered happiness."

Heiying's nose turned sore for no reason: "You live because of the memory of that year?"

"No. Of course not. She and I are, in the final analysis, two completely different people. I adore her for putting all her eggs in one basket, but I won't become that kind of person." Said Caidaochai. "Why chase after the past? It's been more than ten years, why don't I still live well."

"Then why did you save me back then?"

65

Why save him?

Caidaoshi recalled the scene when Sombra assassinated himself for the first time.

When he guarded against the shadow, his heart was not without shock.Heiying is a fledgling, not a martial arts genius, and his whole body can go through the eyes of a kitchen knife with only that little speed. As for the broken dagger, as long as he uses some internal strength to guard against it, he can't even pierce the skin.

But there is no murderous aura, no murderous aura at all, and the blade is coming right at the heart, there is no lag.

A killer who kills so purely.

Pure... This word can stir up too many old feelings.He thought, how good it would be to see this kind of purity up close in his lifetime.

He wants to fulfill this purity.

Chopper Chai did not answer Soi Ying for a long time.Just when Hei Ying thought he would never answer again, he spoke up: "During the days when I was investigating the girl's death, I was still a quack. Unfortunately... I used to go through the sea. Originally, I was alone and never I felt that there was something wrong; I didn't realize until after she died that it was too lonely to go alone. And after getting the best company, the loneliness that appeared again... I can't stand it. "

Cai Dao Chai smiled softly: "Don't look at me as a dead fish, in fact, I have always been looking forward to doing something interesting--you are the first one to remind me of this in recent years."

He continued: "I kind of like you."

67

Hei Ying was shocked, his eyes were running around in the sky, but he didn't dare to look at the kitchen knives and firewood - but his voice even had a calm and frivolous smile: "Oh——"

Cai Dao Chai looked at him sideways, motioning for him to continue.In fact, as soon as he said this, Sombra's mind went blank. However, years of training in the Killer Organization had made calmness an instinct. He heard himself say, "What did I remind you of?"

"In addition to martial arts, the assassin organization taught you too well." Cai Dao Chai sighed: "My past is very boring to others, so I don't need to talk about it. I just don't want to be a bad person again. "The meaning of this sentence is unclear, but Sombra understands it.

The black shadow woke up quickly in the cool night wind, and his heart sank slowly.

"I'm sorry." Shadow said.

"……how you said that?"

"Borrowing the power of the Orthodox Church, I failed your kindness." Soi Ying closed his eyes forcefully. "I promise you, I will kill you with my own hands."

"Well, I'll wait."

68

That night of drinking finally made Sombra give up all thoughts of killing kitchen knives and firewood by heresy methods.It's ridiculous, he thought, but he wanted to take the life of a kitchen knife with his own dagger "with dignity."

He was depressed for two days.When I went out on the third day, there was another black shadow alive and kicking.

"Here, I'll pay you a kitchen knife." He put down the cloth bag, and kept motioning for the kitchen knife to open it with his eyes.

The kitchen knife Chai unhurriedly took out the kitchen knife from the cloth bag.This is really an excellent kitchen knife. It feels thick but not heavy, the handle is comfortable to hold, and the blade is sharp and even glowing with coldness.

Kitchen Knife Chai couldn't laugh or cry: "What are you buying such a good knife for?"

Heiying was silent for a moment, then raised his smiling face again: "Of course you have to choose the right knife. It's so much fun to use a good knife!" Two denarii."

Cai Knife Chai Qi said: "You didn't pay me for this..."

"What do you want money for?" Black Shadow snarled.

"That's right." Cai Dao Chai readily agreed, "I might as well give you all my money first, lest you can't find it."

I really look like a housekeeper... Soi Ying thought happily.

After the two of them opened the skylight and finished talking, they still lived an ordinary life of killing pigs, selling meat, fighting and cooking.There is no other reason - with Sombra's current skill, it is still not enough to kill kitchen knives and firewood.After the kitchen knife and firewood were replaced with new knives, it was even more unsightly.Black Shadow is beaten during the day and eats meat at night. He has improved rapidly in height and martial arts. He even memorizes the price of every part of a pig. Except for being teased by a kitchen knife and stick occasionally, it can be said that life is nourishing.

In this way, another three months passed.

And Sombra himself knew that the time was really coming.
