Wu Du jumped down from the beam lightly, and the short knife with a black sheath on his waist slid across Wang Linhua's sight.

He stood up and answered Wang Linhua's question: "You get paid to do things, I come to kill people."

Wang Linhua sneered: "This time I won't say you are a passerby."

Wu Du said frankly: "Yesterday I was indeed a passerby."

Compared with Wang Linhua's thorny attitude, Wu Du's reaction was calm and friendly, and Wang Linhua felt very bored.

He also recognized Wu Du at this time. He was the weird killer who liked to emphasize that he was paid to do things, but he was not as ruthless and decisive as the rumors said.

Wu Du was too friendly to be a killer.

Wang Linhua stared at the masked killer in front of him and remembered his face he saw yesterday.

His face doesn't look like a killer.

"I finally know why you want to kill people with your face covered." Wang Lianhua smiled, "It must be uncomfortable to be looked down upon."

"It's not uncomfortable, but it's not good for my business." Wu Du grabbed the hilt of the knife with his backhand, and his eyes fell on the target of the mission on the ground, "I just heard that you wanted to ask something, do you want to continue asking?"

The person who knew that he was the target screamed, looking at Wang Lianhua with fear and pleading eyes, hoping that he could save his life.

Wang Linhua paused, looked back at the man on the ground, then looked at Wudu and asked him: "What did you hear just now?"

This was probably to make Wudu play dumb, but Wudu was an honest man and replied: "Ask him if Chai Yuguan said anything to him."

Wang Linhua: "...Can't you pretend you didn't hear it?"

Wudu showed a puzzled look.

Wang Linhua asked Wudu to hide aside, he didn't want Wudu to hear his secret, Wudu put down the hand holding the knife handle, and went to the next door very considerately.

"..."

Wang Linhua looked at Wudu's back with a strange look, feeling subtle.

Is this killer too easy to talk to? There was

a trace of relief in the man's frightened eyes. He felt that since he was useful, he would not die.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.

Wudu stopped, Wang Lianhua retracted his sight, and the two looked outside together.

...

Outside the door, Lengxue held his sword and stared at the closed door in front of him.

It had been several breaths since he knocked on the door, but not only did no one open the door, but there was not even a trace of movement.

Lengxue reached out to touch the door, and it was not locked. He pushed it open and held his sword with his other hand.

The scene inside the house was strange. A young man and two followers were huddled in the corner with a nervous look on their faces. A man with a gagged mouth was lying on the ground, and next to him stood a slender masked man in black. The

masked man had a sword on his waist, his eyes were like lacquer, and he was looking at Lengxue innocently.

Lengxue: "…………"

A sense of déjà vu attacked Lengxue, and the scene in front of him overlapped with the scene not long ago.

Why is it you again?

Bu Zao blinked his round eyes and said nothing.

Wang Linhua didn't want to cause trouble, so when she heard the person outside push the door without hesitation, she immediately retreated to one side with her followers and pretended to be pitiful.

Although it was Wang Linhua who kidnapped the man, stole the painting, and tried to interrogate him, the blame was inexplicably thrown to Wu Du.

Leng Xue's tone was very complicated: "It's you."

Wu Du said politely: "Long time no see."

Wang Linhua: ...Are you friends? Leng

Xue also thought so. Wu Du's politeness made him feel awkward. You know, they shouldn't say they haven't seen each other for a long time in a harmonious way.

Lengxue raised his sword, Wudu immediately asked: "Are you going to arrest him?"

"Yes."

Lengxue looked at Wudu. This time he seemed to come at a good time. Wudu did not kill anyone, but subdued the target and blocked the man's mouth.

Why is this?

Wudu said: "Will Liushenmen kill him?"

Lengxue said: "He and Jin Jiuling conspired to commit many crimes, and he can't escape the death penalty."

The man: "Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu!!!"

Jin Jiuling has so many accomplices, and Jin Jiuling is one of them!

Bu Zao glanced at Wang Lianhua, who was still acting professionally, and the fear on his face didn't look like acting.

Leng Xue followed his gaze and looked at Wang Lianhua. At first glance, the two looked like victims kidnapped by a man, but after a closer look, Leng Xue was a little confused about what happened.

Wang Lianhua was very dissatisfied with Wu Du for diverting Leng Xue's attention.

Wu Du said, "I will not do this business anymore. I will return the money to my employer. You don't have to be on guard against me, Leng Xue."

Leng Xue was a little suspicious of his ears: "Why?"

Wu Du said, "My employer didn't ask me to lead or bring back a group this time. After all, I will die anyway, so there is no need for me to do anything unnecessary." Leng

Xue was shocked for this reason. Can a killer decide not to do business?

Wang Lianhua was also shocked. What's the point of handing the target to the Six Gates? You should be enemies with the Six Gates

. Wu Du is different from the killers that Leng Xue and Wang Lianhua know.

This is also natural. The killer business in the world is monopolized by various gangs. The high-end killer organizations are Qingyilou and Twelve Hands, and the low-end killer organization is Wu Yamen. Although the levels are different, they have one thing in common - they will collect all the commissions at the beginning and will not stop until the task is completed.

Wu Du is a lone wolf killer. The deposit and the final payment are clearly divided, and he does not engage in vicious competition with the monopoly giants.

Leng Xue didn't know what to say, and after a pause, he said, "Okay..."

"Thank you, goodbye."

Wu Du nodded to Leng Xue and walked past him, looking like he was going to leave.

Leng Xue was stunned and suddenly drew his sword. Wu Du drew his sword to block him, with a confused look in his eyes: "I don't think I have any business to bother you this time."

"Even so, I shouldn't let you go."

Lengxue used all his strength to raise his short knife diagonally, staring at Wudu.

The two started fighting.

Wudu showed off his superb martial arts "taught" by the head master, put away his knife and stepped back, keeping a distance from Lengxue.

During the fight, they shortened the distance several times, swords clashed, eyes met, and Lengxue looked at the masked killer opposite him with a trace of confusion in his eyes.

Wudu fell off a cliff after escaping, and was picked up by Lengxue. The two used to practice fighting with each other holding branches. This time, Lengxue finally sensed some familiarity.

It seems that they still have to fight.

Wudu tilted his eyes at Lengxue, and a faint smile was floating in his black pearl-like eyes.

He didn't say anything, but Leng Xue's heart moved, thinking of an old friend.

Wang Linhua and two followers took the opportunity to move to the side room during their fight, without attracting Leng Xue's attention. When they were about to get into the side room, Wu Du looked at them and asked with concern: "Aren't you going to ask questions?"

Wang Linhua: "Damn it! "

The master and two servants ran away faster, and one of them knocked over the stool in the room, with two loud bangs.

Leng Xue turned his head and saw a piece of clothing disappearing at the door. Wu Du seized this opportunity to slip away, and Wang Linhua and two followers broke the window and went out, with another loud bang.

In the blink of an eye, everyone ran away.

The man on the ground was about to cry: "Woo woo woo woo woo..."

*

Wang Lianhua was furious and went alone to find Wudu to settle the score.

Wudu was easy to find. He was not wearing a mask and was sitting on the side of the road teasing a cat with dogtail grass. His expression was serious and his posture was relaxed.

Wang Lianhua strode over. The cat was frightened and jumped away. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared.

"What are you doing?"

"I don't want to fight with a cold-blooded police chief."

"Haha, it seems that you really want to fight with me."

Wudu's answer made Wang Lianhua very dissatisfied. He sneered.

Wudu made a friendly suggestion, but in fact he was advertising for another account: "You can ask Wanwulou, they can definitely meet all your requirements."

A qualified player will not miss any opportunity that is beneficial to him, which is the professional quality of all players in the world.

The baby-faced killer looked serious.

Wang Lianhua certainly knew Wanwulou, but he just didn't want to entrust this organization. Although Wanwulou had a good reputation, he inexplicably hated the name of this organization.

Wanwu Wanwu... Such an arrogant and arrogant name, it's like saying that everything in the world is its eyes and ears.

The rebellious teenager Wang Lianhua was very disgusted by this.

Someone vaguely mentioned this word to him in his memory. As soon as he thought of it, he felt a sense of depression. Who was that person? Bu Zao

didn't know what Wang Linhua was thinking. Seeing Wang Linhua was silent, he tentatively said, "If you can meet the owner of Wanwu Tower, can you tell me that I want to meet him?"

Wang Linhua frowned unhappily, "I didn't say I would ask Wanwu Tower for help."

Bu Zao was disappointed. He wanted to rip Wang Linhua off.

The news that Wudu was looking for the owner of Wanwu Tower spread quickly after Xue Yiren's birthday, and Wang Linhua had heard about it.

"Even if I convey it for you, he won't want to see you." Wang Linhua said, "He must know that you want to see him, otherwise he would have to stop being the owner of Wanwu Building."

Wudu expressed his opinion in a serious manner: "If you urge him more, he will show up."

Wang Linhua was speechless, and then found the blind spot and asked: "What is your relationship?"

Wudu looked at him and replied: "What is your relationship with Chai Yuguan?"

"I don't want to tell you."

"I don't want to say it either." "..."

"..."

Wudu blinked his round eyes and looked at Wang Linhua, his baby face looked very well-behaved and innocent.

Wang Linhua stared at him for a while, turned around and left.

I can't talk to this person anymore. Wang Linhua thought, but I can't hate him either.

*

Could it be him?

At night, after a busy day, Leng Xue was able to rest. Recalling the fight with the killer Wu Du, sleepiness swept over him. In his dream, there was a quiet and deep forest, a joyful mountain spring, and peers coming down from upstream.

Leng Xue had no playmates when he was young. The only ones who accompanied him were the "coaches" invited by Zhuge Zhengwo, who taught him knowledge and accompanied him in practice.

The coaches all treated him as a child. Being alone was not lonely, but no one could share his experiences in the mountains with him.

Occasionally, he would run in the mountains and fields, take risks, and spend time alone.

Until Leng Xue picked up a wounded child in the river. The child had a pair of round and bright eyes, was thin and short, and was covered with wounds and looked very bad.

Leng Xue treated his wounds, hid from the rain in a cave with him, grilled fish by the river, and did with him what he had done before.

They spent a peaceful and relaxing time.

The birds in the forest were singing, and the sound was pleasant. Under the tree, Leng Xue and his opponent held branches and fought, back and forth, like a child's fight, but also like a serious battle.

The sunlight shone through the overlapping branches, and the light was broken like gold. The shadow of the tree in his hand overlapped with the light of the sword. In his dream, Leng Xue raised the sword, and a pair of calm eyes like black pearls were reflected on the sword.

Leng Xue opened his eyes.

Outside the house, unknown birds were singing loudly, and the sunlight shone through the window lattice, and fine dust floated in the light.

It's like a dream.
