Chapter 1322: The smile of the sword God (wedge)
Translator: 549690339
The snow was falling.
It fell like rain.
The wind was howling.
It was as sharp as a knife.
Just a moment ago, there were still many marks on the ground.!!
There were human footprints, horse footprints, and … Some strange drag marks.
But now, under the hazy moonlight, all that was left was a blurry white.
Huuuu
All of a sudden, a cold northern wind blew.
At the same time, a figure appeared on the hill.
He was wearing a large cloak and a bamboo hat.
He had a small burden on his shoulders. A long sword hung from his waist.
After reaching a higher place, he stopped and looked into the distance.
When the small Inn that was on the verge of collapse in the wind and snow appeared in his sight, he let out a long breath.
It was not easy to find this place in the middle of the barren mountains, deep in the soil of the rocks, based on memory, intuition, and the dim moonlight.
It could even be said to be a miracle …
Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang
He quickly stood under the plaque with the words “mi Luan Inn” and knocked on the door four times. Two long and two short knocks.
Then, he stood at the door and waited in silence.
Not long after, the sound of a wooden bolt being moved could be heard from the inside of the door. Then, the door was opened.
A tall, burly man came out to greet them. After seeing the face of the man outside the door, he said respectfully,””Big brother, please …”
As he spoke, the burly man had already turned to the side and made way for him.
The man who was addressed as ‘big brother’ only glanced around the room briefly before he stepped through the door.
Several lanterns were hung in the house, and there was an oil lamp on the table, giving it plenty of light.
When big brother shook off the snow on his bamboo hat and cloak, the burly man who opened the door had already closed the door and bolted it again.
“How did third brother die?” When the big man turned around, the Big Brother shifted his gaze to the corner of the room and asked.
At this moment, a man was lying in the corner.
Of course, it could also be said that it was a male corpse …
Although his head wasn’t cut off and there were no obvious wounds on his body, the ‘big brother’ could tell that he was dead with a glance.
“I killed him.” The burly man replied almost without thinking.
The “third brother” they were talking about was their sworn brother. However, their tone of conversation was surprisingly calm, as if they were talking about someone who had nothing to do with them.
“Why?” After a breath, big brother asked again.
“He wants to touch the ‘goods’.” The burly man replied.
The elder brother’s gaze flickered as he looked at the burly man. “What’s the plan?”
“Naturally, it’s the kind of movement that will ruin things.” The burly man replied.
Big brother took a deep breath and closed his eyes. A few seconds later, he opened them again. “Where’s the goods?”
“In that room.” The burly man pointed to a door on the other side of the room.”Fourth sister, you’re in charge of keeping watch.”
“The other people in this Inn …” The eldest brother thought for a moment and said.
“Innkeeper, waiter, guests, a total of six people …” The man did not wait for the other party to finish speaking and continued,”they are all lying in the woodshed now. When we leave tomorrow, we can set a fire … And destroy the corpses.”
“Alright,” he said. The Big Brother acknowledged and turned around to walk towards the room that the big man had pointed to.
He pushed the door open and entered. That “fourth sister” had already heard the conversation outside, so she stood behind the door to welcome him.
“Big brother,” When fourth sister saw her eldest brother, she also very respectfully nodded and bowed.
The eldest brother, on the other hand, waved his hand casually and walked straight to the “goods” at the other end of the room.
And the so-called ‘goods’ were, in fact, people.
It was a woman.
There were such women in this world who seemed to be destined … To not appear in front of men.
They should have been locked up in the palace, hidden in the boudoir, hidden away from the world.
It would be best if they only existed in portraits or in people’s imaginations.
But … They were still alive in this world.
Therefore, when such women appeared, where they appeared … There would often be fights and deaths.
“Sigh …” The eldest brother looked at the woman and sighed.
He still had some doubts about his third brother’s death, but the moment he saw the woman, his doubts disappeared.
This big brother also knew that his sworn third brother was a relatively lecherous person, but he didn’t think that his third brother would do anything reckless in this kind of “important” operation.
Until … He saw that woman.
He only took a glance and looked away.
Because he knew that one glance was enough … Enough to forever imprint her appearance in a man’s heart.
If he was allowed to look at her for a while longer, or meet her eyes, he might waver.
“You guys aren’t injured, right?” The eldest brother immediately turned his head and looked at his fourth sister.
“No, it’s just that … Third brother, he …” Fourth sister’s tone was a little hesitant.
“I already know.” The eldest brother interrupted her.”Don’t worry about it … We’ll leave as usual tomorrow.”
After saying this, he turned around and left the room.
He didn’t want to stay there for even a second longer, because he could feel her gaze.
He was not willing to have any further contact with her, even if it was just a look or a word.
Only in this way could he continue to treat her as a “commodity”. Only in this way could he persist in completing his “mission” despite knowing what kind of fate she would encounter.
…………
The time it took to make a cup of tea passed.
Big brother and big man (big man is undoubtedly the second, but I don’t want to repeatedly call him “second brother”) were sitting face to face on both sides of a square table. There was a small charcoal stove beside the table, and a copper kettle that was steaming hot hung from the stove.
“Your heart is in a mess.” The burly man held the teacup and stared into his big brother’s eyes.
“Is this strange?” The Big Brother said.
“It’s not strange. ” The burly man said. After a while, he added,”it’s not just third brother. Every man who has seen that face … Will be confused.”
“So, the really strange thing is …” The eldest brother continued,”why is your heart not in a mess?”
“What do you think?” At this moment, the burly man’s tone and attitude towards his big brother had suddenly changed.
“You’re not a eunuch. ” The Big Brother still seemed very calm as he spoke unhurriedly.
“No.” The burly man said.
“Also not a heavenly eunuch (also known as a heavenly eunuch, Hidden Palace; Both Lu Xiaojia and Jiang duanxian in Mr. Gu Long’s works belong to this situation. ” The elder brother said.
“No.” The burly man said.
“It’s even more impossible for her to be a woman in a man’s disguise. ” The elder brother said.
“Impossible.” The burly man said.
“Then there’s only one possibility.” The Big Brother said.
“Hehe …” The burly man laughed. He laughed strangely, but he also laughed proudly …
