Misery: There is a pawn shop here

Chapter 43 The unbearable truth

A sinister wind howled, swirling the bronze bells on the eaves, sending chilling tinkles resoundingly. Inside a pawnshop, a candle flickered, illuminating Jue Qing Shu's black clothes like ink. With Jue Qing Shu's assent, the sheepskin blood contract on the case floated in the air, its cinnabar seal characters gleaming with a sinister crimson glow before landing in front of Jue Qing Shu. Already realizing something, Jue Qing Shu hesitated, writing the three words "Jue Qing Shu" with a single stroke of his brush. A moment later, the blood contract dissolved into ash without a trace of fire, dispersing.

The contract is signed...

"When will the promise be fulfilled?" The wide sleeves of the heartless letter fluttered slightly, and the silver bells of the knife tassels emitted a murderous intent, but there was no change of emotion on the woman's face, as if she had simply signed her name.

"Don't worry, I have my own ways." Li Xuanxiao chuckled and twisted his fingers, raised his hand and turned it over, a ball of fire appeared out of thin air in his hand, a ball of bright red fire like blood.

Li Xuanxiao reached out to Jueqingshu. Jueqingshu watched the ball of blood flame getting closer and closer to her. Her hazy face was reflected in the flame. The next moment, Jueqingshu was stunned. She saw that the face that was originally reflected suddenly changed and turned into a face that she was most familiar with in her life. She had dreamed of him in countless late-night dreams.

Plum Drinking Snow...

Just when Jueqingshu was distracted, blood flames instantly soared into the sky. Jueqingshu had no time to react and was swallowed by the fire dragon transformed from the blood flames.

"what?!"

"No need to panic."

Surrounded by blood and flames, Jue Qingshu came to her senses and saw that the black-robed figure had stood beside her like a ghost.

"What do you mean?" Jueqingshu's tone gradually became colder.

Li Xuanxiao shook his head. "It's just a trivial trick to add some visual effects. Look, now it's time to witness a miracle."

As he spoke, the pawnshop owner snapped his fingers, and a figure gradually appeared on the wall of fire in front of the letter of the ruthless letter.

The sound also came from it.

"So, does everyone have any objections?" A low voice echoed in the dark room.

Only then did Jue Qingshu realize that she seemed to be watching everything in front of her from someone's perspective. There was chaos in the dark room, and she even saw a few familiar faces among them.

That was the name that Quan Qingtian traded to her, and it had long since become a victim of her knife.

"With a great figure like you leading the way, we naturally won't have any other opinions." On the left, a gloomy-faced man fiddled with the folding fan in his hand with a playful smile on his face.

"I'm afraid that after this is accomplished, someone will imitate that jackal who dismembered the body..." At the left corner of the table, the bearded man as strong as an iron tower snorted coldly.

"Why worry? We are already sitting here. Are you still afraid of being robbed by your fellow thieves? Haha." A few sneers were heard, and a masked skinny figure appeared. Jue Qingshu looked at the man and felt that there was something familiar between his eyebrows.

"Since I have launched this action, there will be no more changes. If there are no such orders in the world, it can only mean that this is the case. It is better to leave as soon as possible." The leader still said in a deep voice.

"Of course, of course. Since we are all sitting here, it's not surprising what happened. We have all been through thick and thin." The man with the folding fan nodded.

After a group of evil people finished their discussion, everything in the picture gradually dimmed, and then the scene changed to show two people meeting again in the woods. One of them was the gloomy man holding a folding fan at the previous party, and now his face was full of flattering smiles.

"How did I behave at the party earlier?"

"not bad."

The man's voice also returned to normal at this moment. Upon hearing the man's voice, Jue Qing Shu froze in place. How... How could this be?!
"But I really can't understand why you would do this?" the gloomy man asked. "You are already well-known in the martial arts world, so why would you arrange all this for a mere pagoda?"

"Jing Chuxie, you talk too much." The man's voice suddenly turned cold.

"Don't be nervous. After all, if it were me, I'd have children and a lovely wife like Shu Choumei..."

Relax your frown!
Jue Qingshu's body shook and he almost fell, but the next moment he was firmly fixed there by a force.

"Take a deep breath. Since you have chosen the truth, you have to see the result, right?" Li Xuanxiao's low murmur sounded in Jueqingshu's ears at the right time.

Jue Qingshu's body was shaking wildly. He couldn't believe it, and didn't want to believe it. His breathing became disordered at this moment, and he wanted to say something but couldn't utter a word.

No, it can't be! It can't be like this!

In the picture, there was only a flash of knife light, which narrowly passed by Jing Chuxie's neck. Jing Chuxie widened his eyes and touched the bloodstain on his neck. He couldn't believe that the person in front of him really dared to attack him, and then he begged for mercy.

"Don't, don't do this, it's my fault, I deserve to die, I deserve to die."

Jing Chuxie kept slapping him, but the man just swung the knife in his hand once and then put it back into the sheath. Jue Qingshu looked at the knife and felt extremely familiar with it.

"If you say something wrong again next time, you will lose your life."

As the words fell, the footsteps slowed, and the scene before him also escaped the human perspective and was pulled towards the sky. That person, that knife, Jue Qingshu opened his mouth wide, unwilling and unwilling to believe it no matter what -

A famous slash with a horizontal sword!

"Mei Yinxue!"

With a sharp cry, and the blood flames dissipated completely, Jue Qing Shu knelt on the ground exhausted, with his hands tightly supporting the ground. His hairpin broke, his black hair was disheveled, and tears of blood flowed down his flawless face. The beautiful girl a moment ago now looked like a real evil ghost.

What is this?! My own sacrifice, my daughter's death, all these years of revenge, what is this?!

Jue Qingshu looked up tremblingly at the black-robed figure that was mostly hidden by the table. She could feel that the other person was also looking at her.

Standing up shakily, Jue Qingshu looked at Li Xuanxiao and spoke, but his voice had become hoarse without him noticing.

"You, what evidence do you have?"

It was just a painting, she had seen it, and it didn't mean anything!
"Haven't I already given you the evidence?" Li Xuanxiao said slowly, "There were many participants in that bloody incident, but only a few knew the inside story. Jing Chuxie was one of them. Finding Jing Chuxie will naturally verify the truth of your transaction. But once you have confirmed it, the pawnshop will officially collect the price."

"If I find out..." Jueqingshu gritted his teeth and wanted to say something else with hatred, but was interrupted by Li Xuanxiao.

"There's a pawnshop here. It's honest and trustworthy. Come in."

As Li Xuanxiao spoke, the pawnshop door behind Jueqingshu, which had been tightly closed, opened. Jueqingshu took one last deep look at Li Xuanxiao, imprinting the black robe firmly in his mind. He gripped the knife tightly in his hand and walked towards the pawnshop door behind him.
