10-year bond
Chapter 5 The Mysterious Borrower
Changchun Pavilion, the place where the city lord handles government affairs on weekdays, has been like this for three generations, and the mystics who came to plead guilty were led here.As the lord of a city, Stinky Tofu has a lot of government affairs and always stays in Changchun Pavilion during the day.When he was worrying about Sima Mingen's matter, he was really surprised to see this uninvited mystic, or rather happy.Pleading guilty to a thorn is naturally a crime, so why is there a crime?Without waiting for Stinky Tofu to ask questions, he felt very self-conscious that he would tell all the ins and outs.
He claimed to be Duan Mingkuo, a silent occultist in the southern Warring States area, but it can be seen that his occult skills are excellent, but his background is too ordinary, and he has not been famous in all countries.This is also normal. How many princes and generals in the past were born in commoner?
In the year before coming to Sifang City, he experienced the destruction of the country and family.In order to forget a past event, he left his homeland with the hatred of subjugation.Passing through Sifang City, he was impressed by the pair of swords and swords, the dragon soul and phoenix blood. He spent eight years helping Ming Ri form a charm, and exchanged them for the swords and swords.He felt that he had been stationed in the Imperial Palace of Sifang City for eight years, had no worries about food and clothing, concentrated his attention on gathering charms all day long, and often lamented the strangeness of dragon soul and phoenix blood, and had already looked down on the past in his hometown.Especially when I got a pair of treasures, I felt that I didn't lose at all.
I wanted to continue traveling around the world after leaving.Unexpectedly, on the eve before he left, someone came to him.Said that he would make a deal with him, borrowing the Dragon Soul Knife with a lot of money for one night.
When the knife was returned, it was only after midnight, and it was still stained with blood.Duan Kuo felt a little uneasy, not because the man borrowed a knife to kill, but because he helped him kill.When he asked the person who borrowed the knife whose blood was on the knife, he thought that the person would not be able to tell, but the person confessed unexpectedly, saying that he was the son of the city, the current young city lord.When he heard it, he was even more terrified, and hated his momentary greed. This not only related to human life, but also related to the future of Sifang City and the well-being of the people. His actions would even bring disaster to this piece of paradise.
During the long night, he tossed and turned, thinking hard, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had committed a serious crime.Because I couldn't pass the test of my conscience, I finally decided to come back and face all this, explain everything clearly, so as to mitigate the crime I committed.
He continued: "I heard that people who are injured by the Dragon Soul Knife will die due to the wound spreading, festering, and bleeding. Duan was definitely an unintentional mistake. He became an accomplice in a moment of greed and brought a lot of blood to Sifang City. Disaster. I know that my crime is unforgivable, and I am not worthy of possessing dragon soul and phoenix blood. I am willing to return them with both hands. As for Duan himself, it is up to him to deal with it!"
Stinky Tofu frowned deeply, and his calm face faded from the sunshine and greenness of the past.While thinking about how to answer, Ming Ri and Sima Changfeng arrived, and Sima Liang followed closely behind them.Due to physical problems tomorrow, the pace slowed down a lot, and the arrival time was indeed a bit late.Stinky Tofu recounted Duan Kuo's story again and again, and it took a lot of time, and the sun gradually moved westward.
When the retelling was over, the four of them were all sitting at the table, and only Sima Lian was sitting on the side stupidly, propping his head up and looking up at the sky outside the window, his eyes were blank, seemingly unintentional but intentional.
On the other side, Sima Changfeng said: "Mr. Duan, since the Dragon Soul Knife and the Phoenix Blood Sword have been transferred to Mr. Duan as trade items, how can there be any reason to return them? You just need to tell who the borrower is."
Duan Kuo shook his head in distress, and said, "This...that man is wearing a black cloak and a mask, I can't recognize him."
He didn't recognize him, but the characteristics of the person he described were unique.Sima Changfeng blurted out, "Half-day moon?" with an expression of disbelief.Same goes for tomorrow and stinky tofu.
Ban Tianyue, this lingering and disgusting name.
Tomorrow's eyes shifted to Sima Changfeng: "Didn't you say that Ban Tianyue fell to his death in the duel on Broken Sword Cliff, how could it be him?"
Sima Changfeng lowered his head in thought, his frowning face looked like a bitter gourd, it was the first time in eight years that he showed such a distressed expression.Are you afraid?Still worried? ——When a ghost sees a ghost and a ghost sees a sorrow, he will not be afraid.He is hate, why is Ban Tianyue still safe and sound despite his heinous crimes?There was no news for eight years, and he killed his son as soon as he came back. He hated him so much, hated this heinous person, but he had been kind to him, and he was his adoptive father.
Seeing that he didn't answer tomorrow, Ouyang said again: "Either he didn't die. However, if he fell from such a high cliff, the Golden Buddha would be broken if he didn't break. It's really impossible. Either he really fell to his death. Reshape the body, and was reborn with mystic techniques like me——Mr. Duan, have you seen any other mystics inside and outside Sifang City?"
Duan Kuo didn't know anything about it, and he was confused when he heard it. When everyone mentioned that masked man in a black cloak, he had different expressions. He is a big villain. For him who has experienced all kinds of tragedies in the world, he has nothing to do. He said: "It is probably impossible. If you use it, it is said that you will be condemned by the gods. Most of the mystics are in the southern Warring States area, and I am afraid that I am the only one who comes here, and even if there are, who would be willing to take the risk of being condemned by the gods to help a bad person?"
Hearing this remark, I felt a lot tomorrow: "So Mr. Duan risked being punished by God to save me, great kindness, Ouyang Mingri will remember it in his heart, and I am very grateful."
Duan Kuo euphemistically said: "Young Master Ouyang is not only a good-looking talent, but also has extraordinary knowledge. If you don't save him, it will be Duan's crime. Why do you need to thank him?"
Tomorrow smiled at him and changed the topic: "What Mr. Duan said earlier is very reasonable. If so, it can't be Ban Tianyue, maybe someone else pretended to be it. Besides, the murderer is attacking the young city lord, I'm afraid He came here for the position of the city lord—why does brother Sima need to worry about things here in advance?"
Stinky Tofu sneered when he heard the words of the city lord, as if he was mocking Ban Tianyue who didn't know the truth. Although he was benevolent, after so many years, he naturally had the majesty of the city lord.
"The position of the city lord? Could it be that the next target is me? It's just a dark person who dare not show his true colors."
The guard at the side of Stinky Tofu stood like a wood carving, his eyebrows were raised, and he was a man of great fortune.Except for blinking his eyes occasionally, his body remained in the same posture, and it was difficult for anyone to stand motionless for so long like him.Everyone in Sifang City knew that Chen Keliang was the city lord's personal guard, and he was the one who was most loyal to the city lord.
At this moment, Chen Keliang said: "City Lord, there are ministers here, and no one will hurt you!"
After finishing speaking, the echo still lingered in the room.At this time, a maid came in, her steps were light and soundless, her appearance was not bad, but she was a little dark, not like she was born dark, but more like acquired.She served the tea, her crystal eyes fell on the stinky tofu from time to time, and she glanced at Ouyang Mingri from time to time, probably because she had never seen him before.But the way she looked at stinky tofu was different.Half a cup of tea was slowly placed on the table, and the Sima curtain who was wandering beside him did not fall down, which can be described as careful and thoughtful.After finishing the tea, he glanced at Ouyang Mingri again, bowed to the city lord, and stepped back.
A series of movements, tomorrow can be seen in full view, he looked at the shadow that disappeared at the door, thoughtful.
