Chapter 116: A Life Owed

In a house in a dark alley in the city of Tokyo, Wu Sheng was flipping through the file by candlelight.

"In the fourth year of Yuan Fu, it has been verified that Li Jingcheng, the son of Li Qiande, the king of Annan, was sent back to China.

Due to His Majesty's entrustment, this crime is now recorded and sealed in the secretary's prison, and it is unknown to idle people. ”

"In the fourth year of Yuanfu, the trip of the enemy has been verified. Half of the armaments eliminated by the Zhenjiang Army were sold to the Jurchen Wanyan Department through private channels. Grain, grass, salt, and iron went with it.

Due to His Majesty's entrustment, this crime is now recorded and sealed in the secretary's prison, and it is unknown to idle people. ”

Wu Sheng couldn't be clearer about these two paragraphs, but he watched Liu Ling write these two paragraphs into it. He came to get this file to get rid of these two items.

The conspiracy between Cai Jing and Zhao Ji is unfavorable to Tang Ning, and Wu Desi needs to collect evidence. Wu Sheng remembered that Liu Ling had these two records in Tang Ning's files, and once these two records fell into Cai Jing's hands, the second trip to the enemy would be enough to behead Tang Ning for public display.

Some people may think that it is impossible for Liu Ling to betray Tang Ning, but in fact, Wu Desi has never been responsible for a certain emperor. Their allegiance was not to the emperor personally, but to the dragon chair.

This is the iron law of Wu Desi, and it is also one of the reasons why these secret agents can retire peacefully after they are old.

Even if Cai Jing has the ability to sit on the dragon chair tomorrow, Wu Desi will also be loyal to Cai Jing.

But Wu Sheng may not be among them.

He still remembers how desperate he was fifteen years ago. He had thought it was the last day of his life, until Downing appeared.

Like a flash of light suddenly appearing in the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, Wu Sheng would never, never forget that day. It was the first time in his life that he tasted the wonderful taste of the word hope......

“…… Let me bury my grandmother, let me bury my grandmother......"

“…… Buried? It doesn't cost anything? It's lightweight. ”

“…… You can do whatever you tell me, I'm very capable of working, I just beg you to let me bury my grandmother! ”

“…… Wait! I want this child, along with the old woman's body. ”

“…… The little boy did a good deed, and the villain thanked the lucky child and the old woman who was not blessed to enjoy it. ”

Thinking of this, Wu Sheng couldn't help but smile on his face. Liu Ling thought that he was still young at the time and would not remember this incident, but he didn't know that this incident was Wu Sheng's treasure.

He would only secretly take it out when no one was around, and then grin silly like a girl who was just starting to fall in love.

Tang Ning didn't realize that he was the same boy he was at the beginning, and he never found out. But that's fine, Wu Sheng doesn't want Tang Ning to know.

He just wants to do something for Tang Ning silently, return the kindness he owes Tang Ning to him, and then he can

Let go of your hands and feet, leave the Martial Arts, and travel the world to do what you want to do.

And in order to achieve this goal, it is natural that the fewer people who know about the original incident as possible, and it is better to know only yourself......

The candle flame crackled, and Wu Sheng realized that he was distracted. He shook his head, and suddenly wanted to write a letter to Tangning. Tell him the ins and outs, tell him about it, and he will never see him again.

Thinking of this, Wu Sheng couldn't help but take out a piece of paper, and after pondering for a while, he picked up the pen and wrote on the paper:

Danyang Hou Jingqi:

The villain's surname is Wu Mingsheng, and he is a member of the Wude Division. You may have some impressions of the villain, because the villain has dealt with you a lot.

But what you don't know is that the villain met you fifteen years ago......"

There was a muffled bang, and the door of the house was kicked open from the outside.

Lu Xiu was carrying a knife in his hand, and his face was no longer as easy-going as he had seen him before. He is more like a beast looking for prey, with a cold gaze and a solemn expression.

The house was empty, and the wind when the door opened extinguished the candles.

Lu Xiu stepped forward, took the fire fold from the hand of a martial arts official beside him, and lit the candle.

He saw that the ink in the inkstone had not yet dried, and when he stretched out his hand, he found that the ink did not even show signs of solidification.

The empty room was nothing but the candlesticks on the table, an inkstone, and a few scattered pieces of paper with ink marks.

"It's a step too late." Lu Xiu shook his head regretfully, but soon, he laughed again.

He laughed so that the surrounding Wude Division officials were terrified, the first time the Imperial City Division cooperated with the Wude Division, he actually saw Lu Xiu's crazy side.

"That's fun, it's fun, it's fun to make my boring work a little fun! Wu Sheng, it's really you! Hahahaha! ”

Lu Xiu laughed as he walked out of the house: "The ink hasn't dried yet, he must not have gone far." At this time, he will definitely want to go out of the city.

Hurry up and inform the guards of the four gates that Wu Sheng is not allowed to go out! ”

"Yes!"

Seven or eight officials dispersed in all directions at once, leaving three or five officials ready to explore the site, Lu Xiu frowned and said, "What are you still doing here?" Don't hesitate to let me know! ”

"But they ......"

"Doesn't the Kaifeng government need to be notified? Street patrol camp does not need to be notified? The Guards don't need to be notified? ”

“……”

The remaining three or five people also fled, and after they left, only Lu Xiu was left.

At this time, Lu Xiu put the knife back into the sheath, took out half a piece of cooking cake from his arms, and walked towards the house while gnawing on it.

"You don't talk much, but there's one sentence that sticks in my mind. You said that a person you admire very much once said that the most dangerous place is the safest place.

I didn't understand it at first, but then I thought it was true. Speaking of this, Lu Xiu closed the door, looked up at Wu Sheng on the beam, and grinned: "I think you must think the same way." ”

As soon as the words fell, a cold star shot out of Wu Sheng's hand. Lu Xiu dodged away, but his cheek was scratched by Wu Sheng's hidden weapon.

"Tsk......" Lu Xiu touched his face, then dipped the remaining cooking cake in his hand on the wound, stuffed it into his mouth, and asked vaguely while drawing his knife: "I always thought that you Wudesi people were loyal to the emperor, but you seem to be an exception."

For the sake of me taking them all away to create opportunities for you, can you tell me why? ”

"I owe Danyang Hou a life." Wu Sheng jumped down from the beam of the room lightly, took the file and letter that had not yet had time to be processed into his arms, and said in a muffled voice: "Now is the opportunity for me to return." ”

"Betraying Wu Desi is indeed to hand over his life!"

Lu Xiu smiled cruelly, raised his knife and rushed forward.

“…… Yes, you may not get it. But fifteen years ago, it was you who pulled the villain out of the abyss where you couldn't see your fingers. It was you who gave the villain a taste of hope for the first time, and it was you who gave the villain a reason to live again.

Fifteen years ago, in the tooth shop in Runzhou West City. In front of the courtyard where the cooks are, I'm on your left...... If you still can't remember, think about the fact that you bought a corpse at the tooth shop.

As the man who went with you that day said, you may have been the first person in the history to buy a body in the dental shop......"

Panting, Wu Sheng jumped ashore from a boat, dragged the horse off the boat, and then rode on it to begin his journey to death.

Almost as soon as he got on his horse, a crossbow bolt struck him in the right arm. Suddenly a dozen knights appeared from his right, and they aimed their crossbows at him with expressionless faces.

"Give it up!" Lu Xiu held up the file, laughing and shouting, "You have nothing to hold on to!" ”

Wu Sheng regretted it very much, he knew that he would not write this letter. I knew that he used the effort of writing this letter to erase the incriminating evidence recorded in that file.

The cunning Lu Xiu, he thought that the sword was coming for his life, but who knew that he just cut his clothes and let the file fall from his arms......

"Driving !!" Wu Sheng never thought about giving up, his life was saved by Tang Ning, and the meaning of his life was given by Tang Ning.

…… If you want to die, it is also the family that wants to die by yourself, so that you can die. Before the head of the family lets himself die, even if he survives, he must live!
