General, please be a loyal minister!

Chapter 29

"So, did you remember something to betray the organization?"

Han Zhao's movements stopped, he turned around and attacked, as fast as lightning.

However, Thunder Wanjun's fist was easily blocked by the hired worker with his right arm.

It was only then that Han Zhao noticed that this hired worker actually had a very unrefined and unrestrained appearance, with a tall and straight figure, piercing eyes, and a demeanor that a porter could not have.

The two fought with bare hands in the yard, hand and foot/handover, punching to the flesh.

As soon as the expert makes a move, he will know if there is any.

The moment he fought against the man, Han Zhao felt like his fist had hit a mountain. The man's figure was extremely stable, but his movements were not slow. He was very light and calm when facing Han Zhao's attack.

Han Zhao knew that the person in front of him was a strong enemy, but Zhao Ji was inside the house, so he couldn't retreat.

Fighting dozens of strokes, the man always only defends and does not attack. Halfway through the fight, he suddenly withdraws and quickly opens the distance between the two, his movements are as light as floating feathers.

After dodging, the man hurriedly raised his hand to beg for forgiveness, and stopped Han Zhao's attack.

At this time, Han Zhao had time to check the identity of this person:

Character: Ji Liang (32)

Identity: Caravan buddy/assassin (defecting...)

Force value: super

Justice Value: 60

Status: good

Defect?

He is also a member of the organization?

Although the reconnaissance system showed that Ji Liang was a friendly person, Han Zhao did not let down his vigilance. After all, Yuan Xie, who was disguised by the sixth child, was also a green dot before revealing his true colors.

Han Zhao was also afraid of the other party's superior force value.

Seeing Han Zhao stop his hands, Ji Liang laughed and joked:

"So impolite? Some time ago, Lao Liu wanted to get rid of your little apprentice, but I stopped him. These days, I have been watching him for you. Is this how you repay your benefactor?"

Han Zhao wanted to say something but was interrupted by a voice.

"Master?" It was Zhao Ji, it seemed that he was disturbed by the movement in the yard.

Zhao Ji glanced at the strange man in his courtyard first, then looked at Han Zhao suspiciously, "Who is he?"

Ji Liang spoke first: "I am an old friend of your master."

Hearing that Ji Liang had no intention of revealing his identity, Han Zhao heaved a sigh of relief: "Go out and talk."

Ji Liang raised his lips and readily agreed: "Okay."

Han Zhao ignored Zhao Ji's hesitant expression and drove him back to the study, turned around and walked outside with Ji Liang.

However, before going out for a few steps, Ji Liang said with a foolish smile, "Your disciple followed me out."

Han Zhao: "Don't care about him, just get rid of him."

It couldn't be easier for the two of them to get rid of a Zhao Ji. They found a clean tea shed and sat down to talk.

After sitting down, Han Zhao cut to the chase and asked, "Who are you?"

Ji Liang didn't beat around the bush either: "Ji Liang."

After speaking, he touched his unshaven chin and added: "Or you can call me third brother."

Sure enough, it was someone from the organization.

Han Zhao didn't respond, Ji Liang came to him not because he was idle, he was waiting for Ji Liang to say what he wanted.

At this time the tea was brought up, Ji Liang picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea by himself: "You probably haven't seen me, after all, I left before you became a teacher."

But then he corrected himself: "No, it's defection to be precise."

"Perhaps what you've been hearing is that I'm dead. The second child won't tell you about my betrayal." He took a sip from his teacup as he spoke, but the tea was too strong, making him frown.

Han Zhao had heard other people mention the second master called the second son before, but Ji Liang called the second son directly, and they were very familiar with the tone.

Although Han Zhao didn't speak, he was thinking quickly in his heart: Could it be that Ji Liang wants to join forces?

Ji Liang didn't follow Han Zhao's guess, but looked at Han Zhao meaningfully: "I thought Nineteen was a weak chicken, but I just tried it, and I still have a bit of real talent."

Don't blame Ji Liang for being prejudiced against nineteen. The organization originally only had numbers from one to eighteen. Except for the fixed one, two, and three, all the children in the training camp had to fight for the positions of four to eighteen.

Only the position of nineteen was appointed by the master, not because of ability, but because of grace from unknown sources.

Han Zhao took the teapot and filled it up for himself, and corrected him: "There is no nineteen here."

Ji Liang clapped his hands, and said with a smile, "Yes! It makes sense, I don't like that ghost number either."

"Then I'll call you Han Zhao." Ji Liang said Han Zhao's name with an awkward expression on his face, "Speaking of which, why did you choose the same name as Han Chongguang?"

Han Zhao responded coldly: "This has nothing to do with you."

Ji Liang begged Rao: "Okay, okay, continue to talk about things that are related to us."

Ji Liang originally thought that Shijiu, who was poor in ability, would not be able to do anything, but unexpectedly he did something bigger than himself.

"The sixth one didn't come back because you killed him, right? Do you know that killing a companion is a serious crime?" Ji Liang has not killed a companion in the organization for so many years.

Han Zhao thought it was a bit ridiculous, so he raised his eyes and asked, "I've done all the treachery, and you're still afraid of killing someone?"

As he spoke, he brought the teacup he picked up to his mouth.

However, Han Zhao felt his nerve endings explode as soon as the tea was imported—it was so bitter!

He reluctantly swallowed the tea in his mouth, put down the cup calmly, and didn't touch the tea anymore.

Ji Liang saw that Han Zhao was different from himself. He didn't want to kill because he didn't dare, but because he couldn't do it. But Han Zhao didn't have any feelings for the organization, so he didn't hesitate to do it.

This is his woman's benevolence, Ji Liang chuckled self-deprecatingly: "It is also."

After talking for a long time without any focus, Han Zhao's patience ran out: "If you are here to reminisce about the past, then let's call it a day."

Ji Liang waved his hands again and again: "Of course not, we have something old to talk about. This is the first time we meet formally, so it's almost the next time we want to talk about old times."

As he spoke, he withdrew his foolish demeanor and looked at Han Zhao seriously. Just when Han Zhao thought he was going to talk about something serious, he heard him ask in a gossip tone:

"Why did you betray, lose your memory? Brainwashing? Or something else?" The second child couldn't trust his methods the most.

Han Zhao took a deep breath, stood up and said, "I didn't come here to explain your doubts. If there is nothing else, I will leave now." After speaking, he made a gesture to leave.

Ji Liang stopped Han Zhao: "I'm here to persuade you to leave the customs."

Han Zhao stopped in his tracks: "What?"

Ji Liang: "Let me tell you, if you want to keep you and that kid, go out. Maybe you can escape the false emperor, but you can't avoid the master."

Finally mentioned one important point, Han Zhaofu sat back on the stool: "Who is the master?"

His question was also intended to tell Ji Liang that he had no memory of Nineteen, but Ji Liang laughed and praised: "Good question!"

"Who is the master?" Ji Liang threw Han Zhao's question back to him, "I don't know, do you know?"

……

It was a winter afternoon, and there was heavy snowfall on Qingyun Mountain. The snow was so heavy that it flooded everything.

He lay in the snow, the harsh sunlight penetrated the snow layer, but there was not much warmth.

The crunching sound of trampling snow came from the east, approached, and stopped beside him.

The snow covering his face was pushed away, and a fairy-like figure appeared in front of him. He bent down to look at Ji Liang, and the sunlight outlined a dazzling halo for him.

"Are you Ji Liang?" the fairy asked him.

"Yes," he replied, "who are you?"

"Me?" The man rubbed his wrist and thought for a moment, then smiled, "I am your master, and I will take you to see the outside world."

outside world?

Looking at the village buried by the avalanche, Ji Liang nodded, thinking that he had nowhere to go.

From then on, Ji Liang and Zhong Yan followed this man and left the mountains of the Qinling Mountains and came to the world.

That was the first time they knew that there were so many people and such a bustling city beyond the mountains.

The master explained the principles of the world to them, taught them in accordance with their aptitude, and gave them the opportunity to show what they can do...

Handsome, majestic, knowledgeable, mysterious, and extraordinary charisma.

——Ji Liang thought his master was like this at first.

No, the master is indeed like this, but he is missing one thing, a very important thing - human heart.

The master is a liar who becomes addicted, lacks empathy and sympathy, everyone is an ant in his eyes, only divided into useful for living, useful for dead and useless...

For example, the closer he stands to the lamp, the less he can feel the light. The longer he stays with his master, the more he can perceive the emptiness and darkness in his heart.

After doing one shameless thing after another for his master, Ji Liang began to get bored.

This is not the life he wanted in the first place, not the person he wanted to follow.

After being ordered to exterminate another family, Ji Liang threw down his sword and turned around to leave.

He was ready to die, but the boss who was chasing him stopped his sword when he was half an inch away from his neck. The boss didn't say anything, just threw him the saber that his master gave him back then, Turn around and leave.

Ji Liang knew that this was what the master meant, but why?

Really miss him?If Ji Liang didn't believe it, such a cruel, cold-blooded and twisted person would be reluctant to part with such feelings.

But when he regained his grip on the saber that had been with him for many years, he still fell to his knees involuntarily, and once again felt the urge to the master, and even wanted to plead guilty naked.

This is the horror of the master. People can't help but be impressed by his charisma when they see his horror. They accept his values ​​unconsciously and fall with him.

Look, even if he knows what kind of person the master is, after so many years, doesn't he still regard him as the master?

This feeling made Ji Liang shudder.

It has been 17 years since he met his master, and he has not been able to unravel the fog on his master's body.

who is he?from where?what do you want?Ji Liang knew nothing.

Therefore, he does not know the master.

And he originally hoped that Shijiu, who was treated specially by his master, would know something, but he still found nothing.

……

Because the other party didn't have the information they wanted, the conversation ended without a problem.

Ji Liang poured another cup of bitter tea and drank it down, then slapped the cup on the table:

"Okay, okay, I guess I've only seen this side of you. In two days, I will go to West Asia with a caravan from the Western Regions. Maybe I will die on the way, and you will die in the hands of the master after struggling. .”

"So, I will save the words of goodbye. If we are both alive, when we meet again, let's say goodbye for a long time."

After speaking, he waved his hands and disappeared into the street without looking back.

Ji Liang came like a gust of wind and went away like a gust of wind, leaving nothing behind and taking nothing away.

Han Zhao doesn't like such people because they are elusive; but sometimes Han Zhao can't help but envy their chicness...

The arrival of Ji Liang was not useless to Han Zhao, the third elder brother didn't pay attention to the members of the secret guard organization, and basically didn't mention it, but the master kept it secret.

This also implies that Han Zhao's real enemy is this "master".

He will definitely survive in the hands of his master, and I hope Ji Liang can also survive the treacherous journey.

In that case, maybe when they meet again, they can reminisce about the old days.

Han Zhao sighed softly, paid the tea money, turned around and walked towards his small courtyard.

……

Light, buoyant, urgent, miscellaneous, heavy...

Pedestrians walked by one by one, and the sound of footsteps came to their ears.

Compared with eyesight, Lao Wu prefers to believe in his excellent hearing.

One after another, it was still not the one he was waiting for, but it didn't matter, he had patience far beyond ordinary people.

Finally, the familiar steady footsteps approached from the end of the street, one mile, half a mile, one hundred meters...

After three days, he finally arrived.

When the footsteps stopped, the fifth child also opened his eyes.

The person he was waiting for stood in the crowd and looked at him. After seven years of not seeing him, that person's face has changed a lot. It is less frivolous and handsome as a teenager, and more vicissitudes.

What should come will always come, Ji Liang and Lao Wu looked at each other from a distance, with one look, everything was clear.

He continued to walk forward, and stopped beside Lao Wu.

Lao Wu picked up his sword and walked side by side with him.

Ji Liang and Lao Wuxing were like two ordinary friends and brothers in the crowd.

Ji Liang asked, "Should we do it now?"

The fifth child replied: "You are my third brother, I will listen to you."

Ji Liang smiled heartily: "Then go home with brother first."

The fifth child didn't know which family Ji Liang was talking about, but he just nodded: "OK."

The obedient fifth child made Ji Liang seem to have returned to the old days. He subconsciously raised his hand to touch the fifth child's head from behind, but suddenly remembered that this was not seven years ago, so he withdrew his hand resentfully.

And the fifth child didn't notice Ji Liang's little tricks from the beginning to the end.

The brothers reunited after a long absence, and both of them had a thousand words to say, but it seemed that there was no need to say it when they thought that they would have to die for the rest of their lives.

In silence, the two walked side by side towards the gate of the city, the orange sunset stretching the shadows of the side by side very long.

The author has something to say: The line of the Dark Guard organization has come to an end, and the master revealed a profile

(will not come out in a short time)

………………

Ji Liang: Brother wants to go home and collect a quilt before life and death

Fifth child: good (it’s going to rain, it’s not good if the third brother wins and goes home without a quilt to catch a cold)

Ji Liang: After putting away the quilt, I remembered that I don't have a son yet, why don't I wait for another incense stick?

Fifth child: Alright (the third brother’s family really needs a successor, in case the third brother loses)

Ji Liang: But I don’t have a wife yet!

Fifth child: to find

Ji Liang: I am an old man with no money, who will follow me, why don’t you come——

Fifth child (face flushed): No way!

Ji Liang (what's wrong? It's not okay to ask him to introduce a wife to brother? Brotherhood is so weak?)
