Travel through the long dream millennium

Gu Hei was sharpening his knife.

It was an old knife with some rust, more than ten centimeters in length, the width of a child's palm, and it didn't look very sharp.

The knife groove used to draw blood to increase its lethality was stained with blood residue that could not be washed off, turning a dark red color that was almost pitch black.

This knife has followed Gu Hei for a long time.When he was just born and was abandoned in a corner of the slums in Heijie by his biological mother whose name was not known until now, the only thing that accompanied him was this dagger that he left behind for some unknown reason.After that, he was taken in by Ren Yazi in the slums, and began to learn various small methods such as poisoning, theft, and letting go.

At the age of six, Dagger finally drank blood.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or necessity, the reason for Gu Hei's first murder was precisely because of this dagger.

The children raised by Ren Yazi are of different ages, and the oldest are almost approaching adulthood.The power gap caused by time allows most older children to be domineering and unscrupulous among the younger children; if they are not capable, even if they are beaten to death, they can only consider themselves unlucky.

Ren Yazi himself doesn't care about the disputes and quarrels of these low-level people. He even hopes to use this method of raising Gu to find seedlings with real talents. I have abandoned them, what is it that I, an outsider, care about things that are not needed.

At that time, the person who came to trouble Gu Hei was a 17-year-old boy. He was big and thick, with big arms and round waist.He fell in love with Gu Hei's dagger by accident, and wanted to snatch it without saying a word.In an environment like Heijie, it is so difficult for a child with insufficient background and ability to grow up. Gu Hei was as thin as a chick at the time, and would fall down when the wind blows, and the opponent's arms were bigger than his thighs. Thick circle.

The situation is stronger than the person, Gu Hei gritted his teeth and handed over the dagger unwillingly, but secretly wrote down the person's appearance and name in his heart.After this incident, he spent half a year mingling with the boy who robbed him of his dagger, behaved respectfully in words and deeds, and acted like the most obedient dog.

The boy back then had long forgotten Gu Hei's appearance, who would remember a cowardly hand over his things without even resisting?Even after the latter followed him for a period of time, he "rewarded" Gu Hei with a broken knife he had snatched at some time.

At the end of the story, Gu Hei, who had gained enough trust from the boy, successfully wiped his neck with a short knife under the incredulously shocked eyes of the boy while he was leaving Heijie to explore.

Knowing what would happen if he ruined a good seedling that Ren Yazi was optimistic about, Gu Hei pretended to be on the scene, gritted his teeth and survived for a week in the wilderness full of strange beasts, thinking that he should be on the list to report to Ren Yazi. It was after the crossed out dead population that Kuiye sneaked into the black street again.

The next few years were uneventful. , but just relying on that unattractive and weak child's face tossing around among many forces, doing things with all his heart when he should do things with all his heart, and not blinking his eyes when it's time to sell "friends" for glory.He seems to be born to eat this kind of risky villain, every choice is like a dance on the tip of a knife, extremely difficult and without mistakes.

------------

"Gra...Gra..."

The sound of iron being sharpened on the whetstone was rough and unpleasant, but Gu Hei didn't seem to notice it at all. The beating firelight reflected in his dark eyes, making him look very strange and sick.During the period of following Gu Changli, the little meat he managed to raise quickly disappeared without a trace in just one month. At this moment, his condition is even worse than when he first met Gu Changli. , skinny, yellow and emaciated, with a messy dusty bandage wrapped around his chest.

Relying on his own vision, calculations and intuition, Gu Hei, who has lived to this age, has never hesitated or hesitated about his choice.When he witnessed Gu Changli beating the unstoppable angry bear in his eyes like cutting melons and vegetables, he clearly realized that the opportunity had come.Even though he knew that the other party was likely to kill himself after killing Nuxiong, Gu Hei did not hesitate at all when he betrayed Nuxiong.

Because the development potential of a hundred angry bears is not as good as that of Gu Changli, who is outstanding, young and alone.Even though Gu Hei has not seen ambition and the pursuit of power and status in the eyes of his "master".But he knew very well that under the circumstances of the last days, that adult's future would be extraordinary.

At that time, what kind of rich rewards will he get when he first followed him?

He can gain a lot, possess a lot, and the premise of all this is that he can be truly accepted by Gu Changli, and get his teaching and protection.

Those who can stay by the side of the strong will certainly not be able to be left behind too many people; the two who are too far apart will end up drifting apart.

The request left by the adult when he left Heijie was the first threshold—in the days when Gu Changli was not in Heijie, he had to guard the house, as well as the resources and food inside.

This requirement sounds difficult, but in practice... it is even more difficult than imagined.

The first few days were relatively calm. After all, Gu Changli wanted to establish his status in the black street and save those boring good-for-nothings from visiting him every day to disturb his cleanliness. Eliminated a lot of things and small gangs who had no vision and looked for trouble.Under such deterrence, the surrounding area of ​​the villa basically became a restricted area, and most people in the slums avoided it.

However, the awe and avoidance accumulated by violence in such a short period of time required Gu Changli to show up frequently to maintain it.Among other things, I watched this man with incredible strength go into the forest not far from Heijie every now and then, and it didn't take long before he was able to comfortably walk around with a strange beast that was several times his size. Returning, that kind of visual impact and shock is enough for many caring people to hold down their black hands that are about to move.

Fortunately, the mission that Reinhardt invited Gu Changli to participate in was still a secret. At least the members who participated in this mission were not announced with great fanfare. In other words, people living in poor areas themselves are not eligible to receive this news , That's why Gu Hei got a certain amount of time to breathe, and for a few days, he didn't have enough time to prepare for it and he didn't know the consequences.

On the seventh day after Gu Changli left the Black Street, there were people sneaking around the villa.

That night, Gu Hei, who discovered this situation, did not fall asleep all night, and sat in the living room with his dagger in his arms until the early morning of the next day.

He knew very well that this temptation was just the beginning.

After knowing that Gu Changli was not in Heijie for some unknown reason, a villa guarded by only one incompetent child, with sufficient food and drinking water, was enough to stir the attention of the entire slum area.

A bigger crisis is yet to come.

In the days that followed, Gu Hei returned to his old profession again.It's idiotic for him to block so many hungry wolves head-on with his own ability, but why does he have to face it upright?Having been by Gu Changli's side for so long, he didn't learn much about that lord's unrivaled strength, but the conspiracy engraved in his bones was still the same as before.

Since the water here is very deep and there are many forces, and he looks helplessly at the prospect of being caught without a fight, but has no confidence to fight back, then he might as well stir up the water in Tanchi, making it even more turbid and intricate, the more chaotic the better.

The messier it was, the better it was for him.

"one two three……"

While Gu Hei was sharpening the short knife that had become blunt in these days, he did not forget to count the notches carved on the wooden board to count the time.

【It's been more than a month... When will your lord come back? 】

Thinking about this question lazily in his mind, Gu He coughed uncontrollably. The severe cough affected the injury on his chest, and a mass of red marks appeared on the bandage, which made him unavoidably show a painful expression.

Thinking back to the close call a few days ago, no matter how much you have a city in your heart, you can't help but feel afraid—that was almost the closest you were to death.

If the helping hand slowed down by another second, he should be buried in the soil now and wait for next year to germinate.

It was also because I got carried away with my own self-satisfaction, was dazzled by the too smooth development of things, forgot the vital truth of making up the knife, and almost cut the unlucky guy who was calculated by myself to fight with the enemy, and ended up losing both.

"Little guy, do you have any tricks to hide? Stop hiding your secrets at this time, or you will really die!"

On the other side, propping his chin and yawning lazily, Li Xiang looked at Gu Hei's stereotyped, mechanically precise sharpening posture boredly, and said weakly. , "In a few hours, another large group of people will come to kill you."

"Do you think the whole black street is full of idiots, and I'm the only one who is smart?" Rolling his eyes silently, Gu He finally stopped his hands and took out a crumpled sheet from his pocket, which was full of writing. word paper.There are a lot of words that look like people's names written on it, a small part of which was crossed out by a red line, but there are still a lot left.

"Those gangs that are a little bit bigger, their bosses are more cunning than the other, and they all look like old foxes who have lived for a thousand years. What's more, what kind of tricks did I use..." Gu Hei paused, blinking his eyes, He said in a serious manner, "It's all upright and upright. I even told them that the owner here will be away for a long time and can slowly digest the supplies here. It's just that they can't suppress their inner greed. Li Fan, it’s nothing more than a bloody killing, it’s none of my business—it’s just that a simple human heart is not enough to swallow an elephant.”

What he said was high-sounding and well-founded, coupled with that natural innocent look of grievance.If it wasn't for the fact that he had deliberately asked him to investigate their likes, dislikes, hobbies, and enmity on the paper, Li Xiang would have almost believed it.

"Since the tricks that were easy to use before are no longer effective, what should I do now? I have agreed with you in advance that I will not participate in the battle."

As if thinking of something terrible, Li Xiang trembled all over, with a wrinkled expression like a hopeless quail, "You know my ability, it's easy to use at ordinary times, but if you approach others with killing intent I will be discovered soon, and with my broken physique..."

"I know, it's a waste material that even a child can't beat."

Before Li Xiang could finish speaking, Gu Hei shot an arrow at Li Xiang's knee rather neatly.

"..."

Although he knew that what the brat said was true, he still wanted to beat someone up, swollen?

------------

"God bless those who have evil intentions to send a large army today, I can't wait any longer."

After sheathing the dagger and pinning it to his waist, Gu Hei smiled viciously.

"Can't wait to die?"

Li Xiang, who had just been ridiculed by his poisonous tongue, couldn't help but retort.

Li Xiang really didn't know how Gu Hei would make a comeback under such circumstances.

They are full of fights and calculations, and they only have the combat power of two people - a child whose head is not as tall as an adult's shoulders, and a waste material who has more than enough escape and insufficient combat power... Cough, it is a supernatural person with a single specialty.

But their opponents were a group of vicious hardcover men with weapons in their hands.No matter how you look at it, they are also in an overwhelmingly disadvantaged position, but why does this kid in front of him look like he is eager for the opponent's main force to come to the door?

Thinking about those conspiracies and tricks all day long, are you stupid?

"Although I'm no match for those guys, the strange beast can."

——The arrangements in the forest these days are not vegetarian, Gu He gritted his teeth, his eyes darkened, and his face was full of evil spirits.

"When you lead them to the open space near the villa, there will be something to clean them up."
