Chapter 780 I am willing to lead you to destroy his last evil thoughts
Ning Nan was about to reach the dam. Beneath the blurred figure of the wind and rain, his vicious heart was clearly revealed.
Those who were ordered to stay where they were and wait had different expressions.
A cunning rabbit has many burrows. As a ruthless desperado, Hao Liang naturally has some unknown cards in his hand.
After fleeing all the way here, Hao Liang went alone to meet the people he had hidden, and the rest were left here, waiting for the next instructions.
People, their faces obscured by filth, sat scattered about with a lingering sense of dejection. Amidst the endless, distraught sighs, someone whispered, "Kui San, where's your brother?"
The man called Kuisan was stunned for a moment, then smiled innocently and said, "Master Ning."
"My brother went to release the water. Do you have something to do with him?"
"Let the water go?"
Master Ning sneered, then sat beside Kui San and said cryptically, "Should we let him go or go and tip him off? Have you really thought it through?"
A hint of coldness flashed across Kuisan's eyes, and his fingers silently clasped the arrow hidden in his sleeve.
"What does Master Ning mean by this?"
"Shouldn't you know better than me what I mean?"
Ning Ye's expression on Kui San's face was extremely unpredictable. After changing several times, he said quietly, "I've heard that some masters of disguise are so skilled that they can create masks that are so realistic that they are impossible to recognize."
"I guess you are such a master?"
Kuisan looked confused, as if he didn't understand.
Master Ning scoffed a few times, his tone complicated, "We've been hunted like dogs that have lost their homes all this time. It's no exaggeration to say that we have nowhere else to go."
"You followed me all the way but didn't take action. Are you trying to play it safe and prevent future trouble, lest your master, who is so resourceful and capable, still have hidden dangers that he hasn't eliminated?"
Kui San forced a smile and tried to deny it, but Master Ning waved his hand and said, "Kui San was dug out from the dead. Privately, he never calls me Master Ning."
Catching the momentary pause that flashed across Kui San's face, Master Ning said subtly, "I've long recognized that something's wrong with you."
"Do you want to continue pretending?"
It is difficult to completely pretend to be someone else.
Because it's not just the appearance that changes, but also the words and actions.
The person who impersonated Kui San did it perfectly, but some clues could not be hidden.
For example, there are few known private relationships among the pirates, and such details cannot be hidden at all.
Kui San's eyes darkened, his reserved smile faded silently, and he looked at Master Ning with a half-smile in his eyes and said, "Then what do you want to do, Master Ning?"
"Could it be that Master Ning is also planning to do as Chief Hao said and blow up the dam at any cost to vent his hatred?"
Hao Liang is an absolute lunatic.
Since his own livelihood was cut off, he wanted to drag countless people to be buried with him.
They did have many opportunities to take action along the way.
However, since he had no way of knowing how many other accomplices shared the same idea as Hao Liang and wanted to use Hao Liang as bait, he had no choice but to follow him here in order to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Upon hearing this, Master Ning was silent for a moment, then he asked erratically, "Where are Kui San and the others?"
"Dead."
Kui San said nonchalantly, "Master Ning is right. My master is indeed very powerful."
"Anyone who is ordered by the master to die at three o'clock in the morning will not live until five o'clock."
Master Ning's expression darkened: "You are quite honest."
"Now that you've admitted it, aren't you afraid that I'll tell on you?"
"Why should I be afraid of this?"
Kui San sneered, "Master Ning, anyone who knows this secret will die. Do you understand?"
The difference between early and late death lies in when the action is taken.
That's all.
Facing Kuisan's mocking gaze, Master Ning changed the subject and started talking about irrelevant gossip.
"I actually saved my life. I lived several decades longer than the death date set by the King of Hell."
Kui San held the tip of his knife in silence. Master Ning continued to himself, "When I was eight, there was a flood in Jiangnan."
"Before the flood swept through our home, my family wasn't wealthy when I was young, but we had loving grandparents, safe parents, uncles, and younger brothers and sisters. The dozen or so people in our family lived in harmony."
Mr. Ning couldn't help laughing as he said this: "If it weren't for that flood, I wouldn't be the only one left in my family."
"If the whole family hadn't been wiped out, perhaps..."
"Perhaps I wouldn't end up becoming a notorious pirate after struggling to survive for so many years."
Families lost in floods, pasts destroyed by huge waves.
Looking back now, my life has been a mess, like adding a tail to a tiger, and I can’t get anything back.
Kui San stroked the blade with his fingertips without saying a word. Seeing this, Master Ning said self-deprecatingly, "I've thought countless times about what my life would have been like if there hadn't been that flood."
"so……"
"Though I am a wicked man who has committed countless evil deeds, I do not wish to see again the monstrous waves that take away everything."
"Why else do you think I recognized you as a nail long ago and didn't expose you?"
He and Hao Liang are brothers who depend on each other and support each other.
There is brotherhood and friendship between people who have endured hardships together.
But when faced with certain things, they will have different choices.
Ning Ye's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at Kui San and spoke slowly, "I know I've done many evil things, and I don't expect to live much longer."
"But Hao Liang's plan won't succeed, which happens to coincide with what your master wants. Am I right?"
Kui San lowered his eyes and said, "So?"
"When Hao Liang wants to commit an unacceptable crime, what does Master Ning want to do?"
"I won't let Hao Liang blow up the dam."
Master Ning said with resoluteness, word by word, "Those who commit evil throughout their lives will have their heads torn apart and their bodies exposed in the wilderness upon death. After death, their bodies will be burned in flames and sent to hell. This is what they deserve. I have nothing to say."
"But if the flood is aggravated by human intervention, even if I go to hell, I won't be able to face my family members who died in the flood."
Even if one is an evil person, there is still a piece of pure land in his heart that is full of evil.
That is the bottom line that cannot be crossed in life and death.
Master Ning grabbed Kuisan's hand and said through gritted teeth, "I know what Hao Liang's trump card is."
"Trust me."
"I'm willing to help you destroy his last evil thoughts."
No matter how strong the wind and rain are, the rain curtain that blurs vision stirs up the hideous scars in the deepest part of people's hearts, and what comes into view is a pair of blood-red eyes.
Kui San lifted his tongue to the side of his jaw and smiled faintly, "Great."
"I couldn't ask for more."
When Hao Liang appeared again in the rain, he noticed that Mr. Ning was standing there with a gloomy face, looking helpless.
"Are you blaming me?"
Master Ning curled his lips and said coldly, "I just think that the leader is too ruthless."
Hao Liang knew what his decades-long acquaintance was worried about. He paused, smiled bitterly, and said, "We're desperate now, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse. I can't just sit there and do nothing and let some hairless brat ride on my neck and show off his power."
Master Ning pursed his lips and said nothing.
Hao Liang looked at the person he trusted most, with whom he had been through thick and thin for many years, and sneered as he sat on the muddy ground.
"I lost, I lost. I admit it."
"But since I'm a troublemaker, even if I lose miserably, I must make those who schemed against me pay the price!"
Master Ning took a deep breath to calm his turbulent heart, grabbed the water bag and took a sip of water.
Hao Liang held out his hand: "Give me a drink too. Let's rest for a while and then we should continue on our journey."
Hao Liang grabbed the water bag and drank most of it in one gulp. He wiped his mouth roughly, stood up and said, "Let's go!"
"Brothers, the place we are going to is just ahead!"
