Through the otherworldly peerless

"time to eat!"

Xi threw a bowl of boiled beans in front of the filthy prisoner with disheveled gray hair. The prisoner's hair and clothes were covered with straw. The sour smell on his body made Xi start to pinch his nose a meter away.

No, as soon as I leave the rice, I turn around and leave.

Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly called out to him: "Xi, wait a minute."

Xi turned his head and said impatiently: "Why, you still dare to think that the food is not to your taste? Let me tell you, if you like to eat or not, you will be hungry if you don't eat!"

Apparently, the old man had always disliked the poor food before, and Tin was used to it. Before he could say anything, he said a lot, and when he came back, he wanted to take the bowl away, but the old man snatched the bowl away first. , hugged tightly in his arms.

The old man raised his head, and it turned out to be Xiangkang, but the current Xiangkang is completely different from the previous Xiangkang. The previous Xiangkang was brightly dressed and had a red face. Although he was not young, he looked young; the current Xiangkang, Clothes are ragged, hair is disheveled, and a face has added countless fine lines in just a few days, and it looks ten years older than before. This scene is really embarrassing.

Xiangkang had gone on a hunger strike before and played with his temper. He thought that Wushuang wanted his money, so he had to be polite to him. Who knew that Wushuang didn't play cards according to common sense. When he went on a hunger strike, Wushuang really didn't give him food. , Xiangkang couldn't take it anymore after being hungry for two days, no matter what it was, he ate it clean every time.

The most important thing, Wushuang really wanted to completely forget about him. Seven days had passed since he was imprisoned here, but Wushuang didn't even show his face. Scattered all in this place as big as a birdcage, how can he bear it after passing the test?

Now Xiangkang seems to have lost the slightest bit of arrogance. He held the boiled beans that he regarded as pig food in the past, and begged with a humble expression: "Xi, you and I should be master and servant once. I used to treat you well." ah!"

Xi mocked: "You really have the face to say it! Xiangkang, I have been groveling behind you all these years, serving you like a dog, and serving you, but what about you? Once you say turn your back on it, turn it on, and say you let me go!" Let me go, now that Feng Shui is turning, you still have the nerve to say that you treat me well? Pooh!"

Xiangkang gritted his teeth and said: "You, you go and tell Baili Wushuang, just say, just say I want to see him, as long as he comes to see me, no matter what he wants to know, I will tell him!"

Xi sneered: "My lord is not free, just wait a little longer."

It was not the first time that Xiangkang heard this sentence, he felt that this was simply an excuse for Xi, in order to retaliate against him, Xi deliberately refused to pass on the message for him, but he really couldn't stand such a life anymore, even though he begged Xi for mercy and did nothing with him. It is a great shame and humiliation, but it is obviously beyond his control now.

Xiangkang closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and said: "Just as I beg you, please, Xi, as long as you can invite Master Wushuang here for me, I will give you money, a lot of money! "

"Please? Hahaha!" Xi raised his head and laughed, looking at Xiangkang and said viciously, "Xiangkang, I never thought you would beg me one day, unfortunately, your money belongs to Master Wushuang, you want to buy it Me, let me betray Master Wushuang, tell you, I will not be fooled by you!"

"Don't you think that Baili Wushuang will still trust you after you betrayed me?" Xiang Kang Chaoxi shouted, "It's just because you are still useful that Baili Wushuang will keep you by my side. Once you are no longer useful , your end will not be better than mine! If I were you, I would have made a plan early! Xi, you and I have been together for so many years, you should understand that anyone in this world may betray you, except Yin Zi, you know that, I will never hang on a tree, and my private money will never be hidden in only one place. I can tell you where one of them is, and I can also hide it from Baili Wushuang for you, as long as you let me Baili Wushuang came to see me."

Xi squinted at Xiangkang, thought for a moment and said, "What if you deliberately want to use me as a backstop? Xiangkang, I know you too well. A despicable person like you has no credibility at all."

Xiangkang: "Now, what good is it for me to lie to you? In short, believe it or not, but I can tell you, I promise you have never seen so much money in your life. Once you miss it, don't regret it." !"

Just as Xi understands Xiangkang, Xiangkang also understands Xi. The biggest problem with Xi is his greed for money. After following Xiangkang these years, he would never let go of any opportunity. Xiangkang also turned a blind eye appropriately. Well, Xi is really afraid of him, and he doesn't dare to be too greedy every time, so there are only so many greeds in these years. Now that Xiangkang throws such a big bait, he doesn't believe that Xi will not take the bait.

Sure enough, although Xidang didn't say anything, Xiangkang saw Wushuang the next day after that.

Xi told Wushuang that Xiangkang has changed a lot, he is no longer the arrogant Xiangkang he used to be, now he is not even as good as a beggar,

It is true that Wushuang only took time out today, so he brought You Jiuba to meet Xiangkang.

After a few days, seeing Xiangkang again, Wushuang almost didn't recognize him.

"Xiangkang?" Wushuang called out from outside the cell.

No wonder Wushuang was surprised, it was Xiangkang's current appearance that most people would not be able to recognize.

Seeing Wushuang, Xiangkang knelt down towards Wushuang: "My lord, my lord begs you to spare the villain's life. As long as you are willing to let the villain go, the villain will give you all his money!"

Hearing the voice, Wushuang realized that it was indeed Xiangkang. A person's appearance changed, but his voice did not change. He sat down on the chair brought by Xi, looked at Xiangkang and said, "Then you have to let me see yours." Sincerely, let me ask you, what was your original name?"

Xiangkang hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "The villain's real name is Jie."

Wushuang: "Why were you exiled?"

Xiangkang: "...to rob money."

Wushuang: "More than that?"

"...robbing wealth and killing people," Xiangkang said, "my lord, who was imprisoned for a serious crime? If you let Wang Gui and the others go, I am no different from them, right?"

Wushuang sneered: "There is no difference? Yes, maybe Jie is not very different from them, but Xiangkang is quite different from them. What did you do 20 years ago? What did you do to those children locked up in your backyard , do you need me to tell you one by one?"

Xiangkang was at a loss for words, and immediately lowered his head.

Wushuang also didn't want to talk about these dirty things, paused for a moment, and continued: "Xiangkang, I heard that you have raised a group of mercenaries?"

Xiangkang was startled, and glanced at Xi beside Wushuang. Even Xi was surprised, but Xiangkang only felt that Xi must have betrayed him. He even told Wushuang such a thing. Xiangkang gritted his teeth and asked It's not that he is a prisoner at the moment, he might jump on him and bite Xi to pieces.

"Xiangkang?" Seeing that Xiangkang was silent, Wushuang reminded him.

Xiangkang gritted his teeth and said: "My lord, I have misunderstood. I do know a mercenary, but the relationship between me and them is just a transaction. You also know that mercenaries have always had no owners. They are a group of lawless lunatics. Who can control them in this world?" Living with them? I... I just provide them with a refuge in exchange for some money."

"Really?" Wushuang smiled, "But how did I hear that you and their boss seem to be sworn brothers?"

Xiangkang was startled, his face changed, and he said: "Sir, how is this possible? I really just deal with them, I have no contact with them on weekdays, and I am not familiar with them at all. You must not listen to slander , those are all intentional people who deliberately slander the villain!"

When Xiangkang said this, his eyes were on Xi, and he almost didn't mention his name.

However, Xi Youku couldn't say it, because he didn't tell Wushuang these things at all, it was all said by You Jiuba, but he didn't know that at this moment, he could only stand stiffly under Xiangkang's vicious eyes, motionless. Dare to move.

"Unfamiliar? Are you sure?" Wushuang blinked, "Aren't those people formerly prisoners in the prison?"

"This... this..." Xiangkang stared at Wushuang, and found that Wushuang already knew everything, and sat there in a daze, his face pale.

Wushuang leaned back in the chair: "Xiangkang, you don't need to be so nervous, I just want to know the whereabouts of those people, as long as you are willing to tell."

Xiangkang opened his mouth: "I...I don't know, my lord, I really don't know, I haven't seen them for half a year, really, I didn't lie to you."

Wushuang: "I haven't seen you in half a year? Then do you have any special contact information?"

Xiangkang didn't hide anymore, and shook his head honestly: "No, the time limit we agreed on was half a year. In fact, they were supposed to come back two months ago, but there has been no news. I sent people to Qingzhou and Youzhou to investigate. , there is no news."

"Is that so..."

Wushuang glanced at You Jiuba, and the two of them were basically sure that the mercenaries who attacked them in Montenegro were these people, and this group of people might have returned to Jiuyou by now.

"Okay," Wushuang said, "Let me just believe what you said is true. You said before that you would give me all the money you hid, as long as I don't kill you, right?"

When Xiangkang heard this, he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, my lord, as long as you don't kill me, I am willing to hand over all the money."

Wushuang: "Okay, I promise you."

Xiangkang: "..."

Unexpectedly, Wushuang agreed so readily, even Xiangkang himself was startled, staring at Wushuang in a daze, unable to react for a while.

Wushuang raised his eyebrows: "What's your expression? Don't believe me?"

Xiangkang hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, of course I believe in your lord, your lord will do what you say, and keep your word, it's just...just..."

Wu Shuang understood Xiangkang's meaning, and said: "Well, I will make a letter for you, and I will personally send you out of the city and send you a horse. You will also write down the place where you hide the money with a pen and paper, and wait for you to confirm it." How about leaving the city safely and handing it over to me?"

When Xiangkang heard this, he said happily, "If that's the case, I'll just listen to the adults' arrangement!"

Coming out of the prison, Xi couldn't help asking Wushuang in a low voice: "Your Excellency won't really want to let him go?"

Wushuang gave him a strange look: "Of course! This Marquis always keeps what he says and never breaks his word!"

"...Ah?" Xi was taken aback, "But... But for a person like Xiangkang, I know very well that he will never let it go. I am afraid that if you let him go, what will he do if he wants to take revenge on you in the future? ?”

Wushuang smiled: "I think he wants revenge on you more than revenge on me?"

Tin's face froze.

Wushuang reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "I'm joking with you, why are you so nervous, Xi, don't worry, as long as you do things for me well, I will never let you be in danger."

"Thank... thank you, sir."

Xi felt that Wushuang seemed to put a circle on his body, and he could no longer run away.
