Chapter 335 The Price of Betraying Him
Just as Ruan Qi finished speaking, a loud noise was heard again from the second floor.
It sounded a bit like breaking porcelain.
Yu Jinxiu also realized that something was wrong. He was about to get up to take a look, but Ruan Qi was faster than him and rushed up the stairs like a gust of wind.
At this time, Qiu Weiren's bedroom on the second floor was in a mess.
The table lamp, bedding, and clothes were scattered all over the floor. Qiu Weiren curled up and fell powerlessly on the worn floor.
"Where is the thing?" A man wearing a black baseball cap and a mask grabbed his neck tightly.
Qiu Weiren's face flushed red from holding back his breath, and he gasped for breath, "Who, who asked you to come... Jiang?"
The man in the black baseball cap didn't say anything, and his hand on his neck tightened a little.
"Tell me, where are the things? Where did you put those things?"
Qiu Weiren: "...I, I don't know what you are talking about."
Seeing that he was pretending to be confused, the man in the baseball cap narrowed his eyes dangerously, then raised his hand and slowly drew a saber from his waist.
"Qiu Peng, you should know the price of betraying your master."
Qiu Weiren naturally knew.
Ten years ago, when he was Jiang Chu-nian's right-hand man, he had witnessed the fate of many traitors.
Neither can I live nor can I die.
But he didn't expect that things would change and ten years later he would become a part of the game.
Perhaps this is the retribution for his aiding and abetting evil.
Qiu Weiren smiled bitterly and closed his eyes in despair.
Seeing that he still refused to speak, the man in the baseball cap's expression suddenly turned cold.
He raised the saber in his hand and stabbed it fiercely into Qiu Weiren's chest.
——Swish!
The saber flashed a sharp cold light in the sunlight.
Qiu Weiren seemed to sense that death was approaching and closed his eyes tighter.
Because the eyes cannot see, the body's other senses seem to become more acute.
He felt the strong wind when the saber was swung, heard the muffled sound when the saber broke through the air, and even felt the cold and intimidating murderous aura as the blade approached his body.
Qiu Weiren clenched his teeth tightly, waiting for the blade to pierce his chest.
However, at this moment, a soft 'ding' sound suddenly rang in his ears.
Then, the man in the baseball cap let out a terrible wail.
Qiu Weiren: “???”
He quickly opened his eyes, but before he could see the situation clearly, the man in the baseball cap pressed down on his body like a mountain.
Qiu Weiren was startled and subconsciously rolled away, barely avoiding it.
The man in the baseball cap fell to the ground with a thud, as he didn't have Qiu Weiren as a cushion.
When Qiu Weiren heard the loud noise, he felt pain all over his body.
He took two more steps back, then raised his head and saw the person who rushed into the room.
"Ms. Ruan?!"
Ruan Qi uttered a "hmm" and slowly retracted her foot that was kicking the man in the baseball cap.
She looked at Qiu Weiren: "Assistant Qiu, are you okay?"
Qiu Weiren didn't reply.
He was a little dazed at this time, staring at Ruan Qi blankly for a few seconds, then lowered his head and his eyes fell on the saber that fell on the floor.
Qiu Weiren noticed that a long, thin silver needle had fallen on the floor next to the saber.
He looked at the silver needle and suddenly remembered that when he closed his eyes just now, he heard a "ding" sound, followed by the sound of a falling saber and the wailing of the man in the baseball cap.
Could it be that... the saber in the hands of the man in the baseball cap was knocked away by this silver needle?
