C108 Homicide (1/2)
On the busy streets, the cries of vendors could be heard. The sheer number of cars formed a stark contrast to the tension they had before the war.
However, this wasn't what Xiao Wen was concerned about.
What he meant was, among these people, were there the city guards of Cloud City, or were there Uncle Li's northern troop!
”Stop looking, it's useless.” He stood in front of Xiao Wen, a sword in his left hand, and said: ”Because I know that with my left hand, I won't be able to defeat others like I did in the past. ”That's why I was so careful to wait here for a long time. When the soldiers near you left, I came out to find you.”
”You planned all of this?” Xiao Wen gritted his teeth. He didn't expect that he would run into such an unlucky situation when he didn't bring Guan Yu out today.
That Guo Xiong from before, the one who'd robbed him of his formula and got killed instead, had actually returned.
Guo Xiong's trembling voice was a little agitated, even to the point of spitting saliva on his beard, looking both terrifying and disgusting.
He continued, ”It was all thanks to you. If it weren't for you letting Wang Er cut off my tendons and making me a cripple until I learned the left hand's sword, I probably wouldn't have been this cautious.”
Hearing this, Xiao Wen couldn't help but secretly curse Wang Er.
That damn pig of a teammate, why didn't he just kill Guo Xiong with one slash then?
If Wang Er really wanted to let Guo Xiong go, then so be it. But if you let him go, why did you cut off the tendons in his right hand?
Without the tendons in his right hand, Guo Xiong would not be able to hold his sword properly. If that was the case, he definitely wouldn't be able to find Xiao Wen for revenge.
When a man thinks he can solve a problem with his own power, he's just a piece of trash. If they could not use force to solve the problem, then their intelligence would be revealed, making this person dangerous.
When he first heard that Guo Xiong had broken his wrist and left, he knew there were only two possibilities for this fellow.
The other was that he was killed in a place that Xiao Wen didn't know about. The other possibility was that after going through many trials and tribulations, this fellow had become an even more terrifying person.
”Guo Xiong!” At this time, Zhuo Wang Sun, who was standing beside Xiao Wen, also recognized the person. He exclaimed and took two steps back.
As the person in charge of Xiao Wen's ice shop back then, he naturally knew that Xiao Wen was the one who coveted the formula when he first started selling ice.
At the same time, he also knew that Wang Er and Xiao Wen had killed a lot of Guo Xiong's brothers and cut off his wrist tendons, chasing him out of the cloud.
Zhuo Wangsun didn't have any feelings for this sort of thing.
The way the people of this era viewed rangers was actually very similar to the way the future generations viewed gangs.
Perhaps some young people would feel that a travelling knight was a loyal person who would be able to repay kindness with kindness. The characteristics of revenge were very hot-blooded and very attractive. ”It was just like a 21st century youth who, after watching” ”Ancient Jardines” ”, wished he could take a watermelon knife and slash it from Causeway Bay to the brightest corner and then shout:” Causeway Bay only has one Haonan, and that is me, Chen Haonan.
In this case, an adult who was not infected with the disease and had a normal mind would only be able to say three words …
”Bullshit!”
Whether they were gangs or rangers, what they were doing was basically breaking the rules of society. Their actions seemed very pleasurable, but it constantly infringed upon the personal interests of others.
No one liked to be charged protection by a group of thugs every two or three days. No one was willing to get beaten up for no reason just because they looked at each other. Nor did anyone like the idea of this undesirable class dominating over their own heads.
Therefore, when he found out what had happened to Guo Xiong, Zhuo Wangsun could only say five words — ”Serves him right if he dies!”
