How can it be?

How could it be him?

Yan Shaoqian had an expression as if he had seen a ghost. He stared at the photo, almost suspecting that there was something wrong with his eyes.

He never expected that he would see this person's face again in such a way.

He clenched his fists unconsciously, his breathing was messy: "Is he sure it's him?"

Shao Peng thought he was asking himself, and quickly said, "I'm sure, that mole will not be mistaken."

Shen Zhuo heard that Yan Shaoqian's tone was unnatural, and he was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"...It's nothing." Yan Shaoqian gritted his teeth, trying to suppress the crazily rising hatred in his heart, "Let's drive."

Shen Zhuo felt that he was in a bad mood, but with an outsider like Shao Peng present, he didn't want to ask more questions, so he just nodded to his assistant and signaled him to drive.

Yan Shaoqian turned his head out of the window.

It was obviously pitch black outside, and he couldn't see anything clearly, but he somehow felt that face floating in front of his eyes, lingering like a nightmare.

hateful.

Unforgettable.

He wished he could go back to the ancient times again and kill this person by three thousand knives.

Yan Shaoqian let out a breath slowly, telling himself to calm down, now is not the time to get angry.

After barely calming down, a thought suddenly popped into his mind - does this person also have past life memories?

Shen Zhuo didn't know that he knew this Gao, which was normal, because he hadn't mentioned this matter to anyone.

Then, even if the surname Gao really has memories of his previous life, he should still come to him. Why do you have to make trouble with Shen Zhuo?

Could it be that this guy also has enmity with Shen Zhuo from his previous life?

It was really hard for him to ask questions now, so he could only take that brat Shao Peng to the Public Security Bureau with a full stomach of questions.

Shao Peng's clothes were soaked and his trousers were still open. He looked as embarrassed as he could be. When he got out of the car, he glared at Yan Shaoqian resentfully, looking at his expression and wanting to swallow him alive.

Yan Shaoqian didn't care about this at all, and stretched out his hand to push him: "You can say whatever the police ask you. If you dare to hide something, you will bear the consequences."

Shaopeng cursed in a low voice, and was pushed in by the bodyguards very unwillingly.

Yan Shaoqian looked at his back, and said to his heart that you are too immature, kid, and adults can come up with much more methods than you.

Do you really think that the sentence "Under the age of 14 does not bear criminal responsibility" can run amok?Pooh.

The two leaned against the car, Shen Jue raised his eyebrows and said: "You have a way, what is this called, using the spear of the son to attack the shield of the son? Returning the way of the other to the other?"

Yan Shaoqian remained silent.

Shen Zhuo wanted to joke with him to ease the atmosphere, but when he ignored him, his expression sank, and he lowered his voice: "When you saw that photo just now, what happened? Do you know him?"

"I don't just recognize him," Yan Shaoqian's tone seemed to freeze, "Even if he turns into ashes, I will still remember him, especially that face."

Shen Zhuo focused his eyes, reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Get in the car and talk."

Mr. Shen gave the assistant a car and asked him to drive home by himself. He is no longer needed here, so he and Yan Shaoqian got into another car, closed the doors and windows: "What happened?"

Yan Shaoqian didn't answer right away, but said, "You said earlier that the reason why he hates you is not just that simple. Apart from the commercial competition, what else are you hiding?"

He paused: "Or let me ask more directly—did you have any grudge against him in the previous life?"

"...You really guessed it right," Shen Zhuo sighed, "Didn't I tell you that many things happened after you died? Launched a rebellion, overthrew the old rule and established a new dynasty—I also brought my brothers from Shenying Village to participate.”

Hearing what he said, Yan Shaoqian was not too surprised. Most of the brothers in his village were "forced to go to Liangshan". Once the opportunity came, they would inevitably want to go down the mountain to seek revenge.

He nodded, motioning Shen Jue to continue.

Shen Zhuo: "And this Gao Wang was the leader of the treacherous ministers at that time, the head of the cabinet. When we rushed into the palace, I killed him with blood."

"No wonder," Yan Shaoqian understood completely, "You killed him in the previous life, so he came to seek revenge on you in this life, and wanted to put you to death—but I still have a question, aren't you a scholar? kill?"

"...On that one time, he was too close to me, and I couldn't hold back."

"Oh," Yan Shaoqian crossed his arms, "that is to say, you have only killed two people in total, one stabbing your lover, and the other stabbing your enemy. Mr. Shen, you have lived your life quite uniquely. Yes, most people don’t have your experience.”

Shen Jue was very embarrassed: "Stop mocking me, okay..."

"Okay," Yan Shaoqian pinched his brows wearily, "Your story is finished, now it's my turn, but my story is a bit long, I don't know if you have the patience to listen to it."

"of course."

Yan Shaoqian: "This is the first time I've shared my story with others. I can assure you that no one else knows about these things except me, and you will be that second person."

Shen Jue slightly bent his lips: "Then I'm quite honored."

Yan Shaoqian didn't look at him, but cast his gaze out of the dark window: "Have you heard the brothers in the village talk about my past?"

After a moment of deliberation, I tried to recall: "It seems not."

All the members of the Shenying Village talked about it, and everyone was as good as a rainbow, but none of them talked about what kind of person their leader was once.

"That's right," Yan Shaoqian laughed at himself, "Because they don't know about my past—it's okay to tell you now, anyway, I won't go back."

His voice suddenly became very soft: "I think you must have never imagined that I was once a son of a family. My father was an official in the court and was famous for a while. Unfortunately, the emperor changed. Dao, he favored and trusted treacherous ministers, and my father wrote letters many times, not only failed to make the new emperor repent, but also made those villains unhappy."

"Among them, the one who had the biggest opinion on him was Gao Wang, the great eunuch. Later, he seized the opportunity to frame him, charged him with collaborating with the enemy and treason, and imprisoned the nine clans."

Shen Zhuo's heart skipped a beat.

Zhulian Jiuzu?

"At that time, the court was already in chaos. The traitors were in power, and the loyal ones suffered. If anyone complained about someone else, he would be the next one to suffer. So no one dared to stand up and speak for my father. Once this hat is put on, it will never again I can't take it off."

Yan Shaoqian closed his eyes and propped his head on his arms: "My father also thought about directly rebelling against him to order Mingjun, but what can he do as a civil servant, and my family has been loyal for generations. Collaborating with the enemy and treason is completely confirmed, and the reputation accumulated by generations will be destroyed in one go."

Shen Zhuo asked softly: "Then what happened next?"

"You should have heard about it. At that time, the incident was well known. The Emperor Dog sent his personal guards to search my house. There were more than a hundred people in my house, from the very old to the young. Everyone was killed."

"Blood flowed into rivers that night, corpses piled up like mountains, and the smell of blood lingered for seven days and nights."

Shen Zhuo's heart ached when he heard it: "What about you?"

"I..." Yan Shaoqian exhaled slowly, feeling that his internal organs were hurting, "Before the army came in, we were besieged at home, and my father knew that the situation was over, so he thought of a way out of desperation—he I don’t know where I got some fake death pills, so I gave each of us juniors a pill and let us take it, but this medicine can’t guarantee 100% success, because everyone’s constitution is different, and the amount of medicine needed is also different, more or less , the fake death may fail and become a real death.”

"At that time, I couldn't take care of so much. My brothers and sisters and I ate it all. After eating, we passed out soon. When I woke up again..."

He said and opened his eyes: "I saw corpses everywhere, everyone died, some had their heads cut off, some were stabbed in the heart with a sword, and some were even torn apart, and even the complete corpses could not be put back together. .”

"I'm the only one left alive in the entire mansion."

"Of the brothers and sisters who took the feigned death drug with me, only I survived. I crawled out of the pile of corpses, and ran out of the yard while the officers and soldiers guarding me were not paying attention."

"I kept running forward. I didn't know where I was. I didn't dare to stop, and I didn't dare to turn back. I fell and got up until I was exhausted and couldn't move anymore."

Shen Zhuo didn't know what to say, so he pursed his lips tightly.

"Later, a kind person helped me back home when I fainted on the road, and gave me food. I didn't know if anyone was chasing me. I didn't want to hurt them, and I didn't dare to stay for a long time. I left that family that night. fled into the mountains."

"There was a group of bandits in that mountain. The name of the cottage was 'Shenying Village'. I felt very proud and thought it was safe here. They must be strong and could protect me, so I rushed into the village and begged them to say, 'Please save me'. I'."

Shen Zhuo finally couldn't help it: "Yan Shaoqian..."

"I was 14 years old that year," Yan Shaoqian ignored him, and continued on his own, "Unexpectedly, I couldn't even imagine that I was the son of a minister in the court, and I would be forced to fall into the grass one day. Kou, he would beg a group of bandits who occupy the mountain to be king just to survive."

"The head of the Shenying village took me in. From that day on, I joined the village and became one of them."

"My real name is not Yan Shaoqian, and my surname is not even Yan. No one knows what my real name is, even if the head of the family asks me, I dare not say it. I have given up my previous identity, and I am no longer the son of a pampered family. , I am a bandit."

"Since this world does not allow good people to exist, and only bad people can live better, then I will join them, and I will become a bad person, so that I can live."

"You are not a bad person." Shen Jue suddenly took his hand and kissed the back of it lightly, "Everyone in Shenying Village has a similar experience to yours. Although you call yourself 'Kou', in reality Come on, you didn't do anything bad."

Yan Shaoqian looked at him: "You know again?"

"I know, I know very well," Shen Jue tightly clenched his hand, reluctant to let go, "You all intercepted the silver carts of corrupt officials, and most of the money was used for the daily expenses of the cottage. Relief to the poor people at the bottom of the mountain, the tax was very strict at that time, without your relief, the people at the bottom of the mountain might not be able to survive long ago."

Yan Shaoqian was silent.

"You are not wrong, and Shenying Village is not wrong. Everything you have done is to survive, and no one can blame you."

Shen Jue raised his head and looked into his eyes, his eyes were surprisingly gentle: "You failed to see the day when the regime changed and the treacherous officials died, but I saw it for you. What you haven't done, I will do it for you. You He is a good village master, I have always felt so."
