Fish swimming around the world
Chapter 64: The End
Lu Sanshiqi is the top assassin ranked 37th on the list of assassins in the world. His name is Lu Hanting. He is good at using a rapier. Since his debut, he has killed nearly 100 people, all of whom were killed with one sword. No one expected that he would hide in Paradise City and openly accept the reward. However, the reputation of the 37th person in the world is not very good. He is known as the most unscrupulous assassin in the assassin world. He can do anything for money. Some people jokingly say that as long as the silver is enough, he can kill his own son.
A bad reputation is one thing, but his methods are definitely not bad. This person has never failed in the jobs he has taken. Many people think that as long as Jiang Fan dares to leave Paradise City, he will die.
Although for now, Jiang Fan is just a suspect, and it is obvious that Nangong Xin has determined that he is the mastermind behind Liu Changqing's death. Most people are skeptical about this statement. The reason is simple. There is no need. Mr. Jiang's song "When Will the Moon Be There" shocked the world and has cleared his name. He does not bother to plagiarize at all. Naturally, there is no reason to kill Liu Changqing. Is it just for Liu Changqing to openly slander himself? Liu Changqing has already lost face, and it is obviously illogical to do so again.
But the problem is that Liu Changqing's suicide note points directly to Jiang Feng. Unless evidence is found, it is difficult to refute.
However, the outside world's attention is limited to this. As for Nangong Xin's public reward for killing, there are not many objections. More people are waiting to watch the excitement, which is where everyone is interested. This is Ji Le City after all. It is not surprising that such a thing happened in a gathering place for criminals and bandits.
Of course, there are many supporters of Mr. Jiang who run for him, angrily denounce Nangong Xin, and question that he is jealous and hateful and attempts to destroy a contemporary literary genius. But what's the point? This world is a chaotic world. Although the world loves Mr. Jiang's poems, the aristocratic families are the rulers of this era. Many people believe that it is in Ji Le City. If it were another place, Nangong Xin would not be so troublesome and would have sent someone to take his life directly.
One is a wealthy family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the other is a new literary talent who suddenly appeared. What fun would they have to see if they were against each other? This is what the people of Paradise City want to see. How will Mr. Jiang react? Run away with his tail between his legs, or hide in the Jinyu Building, or do something else? After all, it is said that Mr. Jiang has several fierce bandits under his command, and countless people are waiting to see what will happen.
Before Mr. Jiang reacted, an accident happened. No one expected that after the killer Lu Sanshiqi took the order, he would directly issue a challenge to Jiang Fan, saying that if he had the courage, he would go on the stage to see life and death.
As soon as this was said, Paradise City was in an uproar.
There is no other reason. The stage is a unique place in Paradise City, which means to settle grudges. It was the sudden idea of the Lord of Paradise City. He thought that fighting was prohibited in Paradise City, but some people still repeatedly violated the ban for various reasons. In order to reduce this kind of thing, he simply set up this stage and allowed hostile enemies to gamble on life and death in various ways. Even fighting methods were allowed, becoming the only place in Paradise City where fighting could be used. But the condition is that all parties involved must agree, and once on the stage, life and death must be seen. The parties involved can do it themselves or hire someone to gamble to decide the outcome.
Unexpectedly, once this platform was set up, many people actually came to the stage to gamble their lives. Ji Le City took advantage of this to open the market, set up gambling games, and made enough money.
Lu Hanting proposed to meet the life and death on the stage. Many people did not understand the meaning until someone explained that the reason why the thirty-seventh was in Ji Le City was probably because his enemies were chasing him and he could not leave the city, and his money was about to run out, so he took Nangong Xin's order.
This is not surprising. This kind of thing is common in Ji Le City. What's interesting is that the thirty-seventh killer in the world can be forced to this point, which makes the public sigh.
The next step is very simple. It depends on whether Jiang Fan dares to fight. If he doesn't accept it, Lu Hanting really can't do anything to him.
In the eyes of many people, Master Jiang has no need at all. A young poet, with a rising reputation and a bright future waiting for him, how could he gamble his life with a killer.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Jiang gladly accepted it and put forward a condition that Nangong Xin's name must be signed in the Book of Life and Death.
Filling in the name means that the person must be present, and as long as he loses, the name on the Book of Life and Death must die.
The climax came again, Nangong Xin was defeated, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.
Before Nangong Xin could reply, Mr. Jiang waved his hand and made another bold statement, saying that others who wanted to kill him could go together and join forces to bet against him. But there was only his name on the Book of Life and Death, so he could come if he felt it was appropriate.
Previously, someone broke into the Jinyu Tower, and many people suspected that it was related to Mr. Jiang. Now Jiang Fan's move confirmed the matter.
Everyone was shocked. On the one hand, it was Jiang Fan's courage, and on the other hand, it made everyone puzzled. Not only did they not understand why he did this, but it was clearly unnecessary. On the other hand, it was well known that Mr. Jiang did not know martial arts, so why did he attract so many enemies, and even risked his life to kill him in Paradise City?
Young Master Jiang's origins were unknown. Since the two poems were published, many people have tried to find out where this young talent came from, but unfortunately they all failed. Now, he is related to the assassinations that occurred in Jinyu Tower, which makes him even more mysterious.
Many people came to the outside of Jinyu Tower to watch and found that Young Master Jiang was drinking and singing in the singing and dancing all day long, so happy.
On the other hand, Nangong Xin was silent, staying in the inn and did not respond for three consecutive days.
Nangong Xin was so angry that he almost smashed everything he could. Lu Hanting did this without discussing it with him, and Jiang Fan's move in the future caught him off guard.
This army was completely controlled. Whether to go or not instantly became his problem.
Go, it's not worth it for the son of a wealthy family, the richest man in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, to gamble his life and death with a teenager. If he doesn't go, his previous vow to avenge his friend will become a laughing stock, and he will never be able to hold his head up in the future, and he can't even think about coming to Paradise City. Not to mention Meng Chanjuan, who is always thinking about him, I guess she will sneer at him when she mentions him.
"Jiang Feng! You deserve to die! Lu Sanshiqi, you bastard!"
Seeing that Nangong Xin was about to smash things in anger, an old man sneered: "Young master, please be patient, it's just a yellow-mouthed boy, it's not easy for you to deal with him?"
Nangong Xin was stunned for a moment, put down the jade cup in his hand: "What do you have to say, Mr. Cao?"
The old man smiled slightly and said: "What you are worried about is nothing more than the mysterious origin of the boy, and he is afraid that there is some extraordinary backhand, and the killer Sanshiqi can't deal with it, and he just lost the battle."
Nangong Tongdao: "Indeed, Lu Han Ting has made his own decision without my consent. Now I am in a dilemma. What should I do? "
The old man said, "I have already told you that Jiang Feng's real name is Jiang Fan. He is just a fisherman in Qingfeng Gorge. He is not worth worrying about. Besides, as long as you can guarantee that everything is safe and you will win the bet, why should you be afraid of the Book of Life and Death?"
"Definitely win?" Nangong Xin asked doubtfully, "Everything has its own surprises. Jiang Feng is not an easy person to deal with. I don't know who organized the two assassination attempts, but they all ended in failure. His body is still hanging on the South City Tower. How can I guarantee that everything is safe?"
