Laughing at Chang'an

The car was on the road, and Feng He, who had been beaten into a fool, was lying on the back seat of the car.

"I say……"

"Shut up, don't listen, get out."

Li Shen looked out of the window silently, he admitted that he had passed the impulsiveness, and he also felt that he had gone too far.However, Feng He's approach still made him a little hard to accept. He could understand Feng He's desire to take revenge on Li Mubai, but such a way of revenge really... made him not know what to say.

In the Eastern Wilderness, falling in love with a man is considered unconventional. Many countries even have laws that prohibit men from falling in love. The worst offenders will be beheaded.But in Zhongtu, there are not so many rules, and the atmosphere is more open. It doesn't matter if you like women or men, and no one will care if you want to have a relationship with animals.In fact, this is mainly caused by the environment. There are endless wars in the Eastern Wilderness, and every country needs a population. Same-sex love is naturally regarded as a taboo.

Unfortunately, Li Shen grew up in Donghuang, so he was inevitably influenced by Donghuang's mainstream ideas, and he didn't approve of same-sex love very much.But after living in Middle-earth for so many years, these concepts have gradually changed. For example, he often sees gay people who kiss me and me on Chang'an Avenue, and he will not cast strange glances... It's just that Feng He is his close friend after all. People, suddenly doing such a thing, made him somewhat unacceptable.

Moreover, his perception of Li Mubai was very complicated.

In terms of blood, Li Mubai is his younger brother.And Li Shen also probably guessed something. The other party's childhood was shrouded in the double shadow of Li Tieyi and his mother, so it probably wouldn't be too good.From Li Shen's standpoint, he has no right to pity the other party, and he didn't feel too much hostility from Li Mubai.

At least the other party's malice wasn't to the point of wanting to kill him no matter what.

"Hey." Feng He, who was quite dead, said suddenly, "Have you ever gone to find Li Tieyi? Is what Li Mubai said true?"

Li Shen was stunned, yesterday he did notice someone outside the door, but he thought it was Li Mubai's person, he hesitated for a while, and asked Feng He: "Did you hear that?"

"Start from how Li Tieyi planned to make you the 'new king' of Glory." Feng He turned over, lay on his back on the car seat, and said calmly, "It's quite scary, anyway, I was shocked, heh, This old thing Li Tieyi really dares to play."

Li Shen didn't respond.

"I didn't expect that the cause of brother's death would be like this." Feng He said.

In the final analysis, Yang Huxing's death was due to Li Shen.If he hadn't met Li Shen, and hadn't become Li Shen's sworn brother, he wouldn't have been treated as a pawn in Li Tieyi's layout, and he wouldn't have died.

Feng He didn't accuse Li Shen, but asked him: "Will you seek revenge from Li Tieyi?"

He was actually asking—would you kill your father yourself to avenge Yang Xingxing?

——Then how should Li Shen answer, and how can he answer?

This is an unsolvable problem.

"Having such a father means that you have committed crimes in your previous life. You deserve it." Feng He smiled and shook his head, "Don't even think about it, no one is forcing you to kill your father. I won't, and Yang Xingxing won't..."

"I have thought about it." Li Shen interrupted him and said, "I did think about killing him."

Feng He froze for a moment, then laughed.

"One Li Mubai, one you, Li Tieyi has you two sons, and he committed crimes in his previous life, so he deserves to be unlucky."

………………

On November [-], [-] in the Tang Dynasty, Zhongtu, Chang'an.

Waking up in the morning, Li Shen put on a single coat and stood at the door, biting his toothbrush, looking up at the sky. It was gloomy, as if it was going to rain.

He took an umbrella with him when he went out.

Driving off Gubai Road, Li Shen first went to Jiuyang Street not far away to buy breakfast for Mu Xiaobai. He parked the car on the side of the road and waited in line to buy buns.This small street is full of food stalls, selling buns, wontons and noodles, and it is very lively with people coming and going.

"Bring two cages and pack them."

Li Shen took out his wallet and put it on the counter by his side. With some difficulty, he took out a note and was about to pass it to the girl who was collecting the money, when he heard a piercing scream from the side, and many people turned away in panic. They ran out from the nearby food stall, yelling 'killer', 'there's a dead person inside'.

Early in the morning is also quite unlucky.Li Shen stuffed the banknotes to the little girl who was busy watching the excitement, and reminded the other party: "Two baskets of buns, pack them up."

The little girl was looking for money to pack for him, but her eyes still drifted to the side from time to time. Li Shen took the buns from her and went across the street to buy tofu.The grandmother who sells tofu nao is very calm. While concentrating on making her tofu nao, she complains to Li Shen: "Damn it, what a big deal, it's a surprise, it's like I haven't seen it before."

Hey, grandma, you are too calm... Li Shen suppressed the idea of ​​complaining, paid the money silently, and was about to take the packaged tofu nao from the other party, when he heard another scream from the side, no, this time is left.

Li Shen and the grandmother selling tofu nao looked at each other, and the tofu nao fell to the ground with a thud.

"Damn it..." Grandma looked around in a panic, stopped making tofu brains, and muttered, wiping her hands on the apron, "What's wrong, what's going on..."

Another scream.

The whole street was in chaos, and people looked at each other, feeling even more fearful in their daze.The security officer who rushed into the first food stall rushed out again, looking left and right, with the same blank expression on his face.

Li Shen frowned, and asked Grandma, "Are you still selling this tofu brain?"

"It's not for sale, it's not for sale." Grandma waved her hands and packed her things in a panic, "Something's going to happen, let's go, hurry up."

Everyone in old Chang'an has a nose that can smell out danger, and she is undoubtedly an old Chang'an.Li Shen originally wanted to tell her that he had given the money, but it was fine when he saw it. He was about to leave with his buns in hand when he saw a mercenary in a glow uniform rushing out from a food stall not far ahead, and then After taking two steps, he suddenly began to vomit blood, and fell forward on his knees while vomiting blood.

Li Shen silently narrowed his eyes.

Under the horrified eyes of everyone, a cook wearing an apron came out from the food stall, walked behind the kneeling mercenary, raised the kitchen knife in his hand without hesitation, and chopped off the mercenary's head.

Then he threw away the kitchen knife, wiped his bloody hands on the apron, turned his head and smiled at the sheriff who hadn't reacted yet.

"Everyone, don't panic." The cook who killed everyone said to the people around him, "This is Hui Guang's handling housework, so I won't accidentally hurt you."

The sheriff who was about to rush over to control him heard the word 'Glow' and couldn't help but stop, as if to prove his words, corpses in glow uniforms were thrown onto the street, noodle sellers and congee sellers Sellers of tea eggs... Many food stall owners who have been doing business on this street for an unknown number of years, walked out of their shops and cut off the heads of the corpses on the ground.

The sheriff who was left there lowered his head in embarrassment, and took out the communicator to contact the above.People on the street looked at each other in blank dismay, and many of them who were usually familiar with these bosses were surprised from ear to ear.

Li Shen had some bad premonitions in his heart, he took out the communicator and dialed Lin Guo's number.

"Ah Guo, I'm on Jiuyang Street, here..."

"I know." Lin Guo's voice could not hear any emotion, "There are news everywhere that Li Tieyi did something to Li Mubai."

Sure enough.

Li Shen had already guessed since he heard the cook say that "Hui Guang handles the housework".Glow has been rooted in Chang'an for thousands of years, and no one knows how many hidden threads it has buried in this city. Many people have carried on the most normal livelihood for generations, but in fact they have inherited another identity for generations.

But Li Shen still couldn't figure it out: "Is he crazy? I think those who died are the most basic mercenaries. Most of these people don't know the situation, and they may not be determined to stand by Li Mubai. What is Li Tieyi doing?" Are you going to kill them?"

"I'm afraid only he himself knows this question." Lin Guoping said flatly, "It's a good thing for us that he is crazy, let him continue to kill."

Li Shen didn't know what to say, so he heard a beep and hung up on the other side.

He put down the communicator and was about to leave, but was stopped by the grandmother selling tofu.Grandma lifted the lid of the pot, and the steaming steam and fragrance rushed up, and she asked Li Shen very calmly——

"Tofu brain, do you want more?"

………………

There is a saying that when a king is angry, he will lay down millions of corpses. Now Li Tieyi's anger may not be too much.

The speed of the dead is like the plague.

On the way Li Shen returned to the hospital from Jiuyang Street, there were busy security officers everywhere.There are more than 3 officially registered members of Huiguang, of which at least 1 are permanently stationed in Chang'an City, and grassroots mercenaries account for the vast majority.And how many glowing dark lines there are in this city is really unknown.

Mu Xiaobai, who was in the hospital, didn't know what happened outside, so he was a little surprised to see that Li Shen was carrying steamed buns and tofu nao, but no glutinous glutinous rice balls.Li Shen patted his head, but didn't tell the other party about the glutinous glutinous rice balls, he probably won't be able to eat them again in the future.

Killing one's own people with hidden threads is a lose-lose situation. Once those hidden hidden threads are revealed, they will lose their meaning of existence, and the dead grassroots mercenaries are also the foundation of the glory. Li Tieyi is digging the Great Wall himself.

Li Shen still planned to meet the other party, by the way to confirm with his own eyes whether Li Tieyi was really crazy.

Mu Xiaobai looked up at him.

"Head."

"Ok?"

"You don't seem very happy, what happened?"

Li Shen froze for a moment, shook his head, and fed a bun into the opponent's mouth.

"It's okay." He paused, showing a self-deprecating smile, "I don't know why I'm unhappy."

After feeding Mu Xiaobai breakfast and watching him sleep obediently, Li Shen packed up the lunch box and left the hospital.When he went downstairs, he heard people talking about the dead outside, and it seemed that the news had spread.

Since the existence of Chang'an City, the glow has existed.For thousands of years, it has shrouded the city like a lingering curtain.Even in the era when Xuetu and Donggong emerged as kings, no one could ignore its existence.The millennium glow, the millennium uncrowned king, no one can imagine what it will be like without its figure in Chang'an city one day.

Li Shen walked out of the hospital gate.

"Hey, have you heard? The Xu family in Songyang has been wiped out."

"Really? That's Li Mubai's mother's family, my God, Li Tieyi is so ruthless."

Someone walked past Li Shen, and these words also fell into his ears. He looked back at the two of them, and vaguely remembered the old man who smiled at him with a hidden knife in Hanshanji.He said at the beginning that he wanted to destroy the opponent's whole family, but he didn't expect that Li Tieyi would really do it for him.

Li Shen drove from the northern city to the eastern suburbs, and stopped in front of the pier at Baiweidu.The usually lively and busy ferry was eerily quiet at the moment. There was a lonely cargo ship parked beside the pier. Li Shen recognized this ship, and it was indeed Li Tieyi's ship.

A few drops of rain hit the car window, and then a heavy rain fell from the sky without warning, and the sound of the splintering rain drowned out the abnormal silence outside in an instant.

Li Shen opened the umbrella and got out of the car.

He looked around, at least he felt the power of stereotypes that could threaten him.In other words, there are at least eight nine steps of immortal road.

"I'm Li Shen."

He raised his voice, and his voice broke the rain curtain far away.

"I want to see Li Tieyi."
