After receiving Zhang Ren's promise, Liu Erbing felt relieved and said, "I knew you were interested. As for the city patrol officer, I didn't see it at all along the way."
There is a curfew in Jinling City every day, and the soldiers of the City Patrol Department will also patrol at all major street intersections. The Qinhuai River is the busiest place every night. The City Patrol Department will send soldiers to patrol continuously. But today, the Qinhuai River bank is the busiest place. The city patrol department disappeared.
This is a clue that can be followed for investigation. Zhang Ren said to Liu Erbing: "Please bear with me and go to the City Patrol Office to find out why there is no one patrolling the Qinhuai River today!"
Liu Erbing nodded, "Okay, okay, your official has the final say."
Immediately, Liu Erbing ordered brothers Mo Conongrong and Mo Dingding to go to the city inspection department.
Then, Liu Erbing ordered others to go to the Jinyi Guards to report that many people died in the Songzhu Pavilion today. It was already considered the worst incident since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. This incident might shock the court, so this matter must be To report.
Fu Rang ran out from nowhere. Looking at his face and bloody clothes, he was obviously injured.
I thought today's crisis had been passed safely, but unexpected changes occurred.
An assassin who had been seriously injured and unconscious suddenly stood up. With a flick of his wrist, a flying knife flew towards Zhang Ren.
Zhang Ren had his back to the assassin, and he also relaxed his vigilance, so he was completely unaware of the flying knives.
Liuli saw the flying knife.
Without saying a word, she stood directly in front of Zhang Ren.
With a scream, the flying knife sank into Liuli's body.
Only then did Zhang Ren react. He supported Liuli with one hand and raised his knife in the other hand in a defensive posture to prevent further assassins from attacking.
The assassin who took action looked like he was crazy and said with a smile: "Hahaha! I have offended the dark master! Everyone will die!"
After the assassin finished speaking, he raised the knife and wiped his own neck.
The blood spattered far away, but the assassin still had a crazy and ferocious smile on his face.
Until he fell, he didn't utter a cry of pain, and that terrifying smile was forever fixed on his face.
Seeing such a situation, many survivors in the Songzhu Pavilion were so frightened that they screamed, especially the madam who screamed particularly loudly.
Who is the dark master? Zhang Ren confirmed that he did not know any secret master. But now he can no longer control the dark master.
Zhang Ren ordered coldly to the surrounding Jin Yiwei: "All assassins who are still alive will cut off their hand tendons and hamstrings! If they are not breathing, just cut them with a knife!"
Liu Erbing also led people to carry out the execution.
Zhang Ren is not a cruel person. Even when he faced the assassin, he did not kill him.
But at this moment, he had to be fierce. Who let the assassin just hurt Liuli? Now Liuli is Zhang Ren's Nilin!
Zhang Ren knelt down on one knee, hugged Liuli tightly in his arms, and covered Liuli's wound tightly with one hand, but the blood seemed to be unstoppable and gushes out from between Zhang Ren's fingers.
Zhang Ren shook his head anxiously and applied his inner strength to his fingertips. He tried to apply acupuncture points on Liuli to stop the bleeding, but the wound seemed too big. No matter how hard he tried, the bleeding showed no sign of stopping.
Zhang Ren's face was full of anxiety, and he couldn't help but shed tears. He yelled crazily at the people around him: "Where is the doctor? Go find the doctor quickly!"
Liuli endured the pain and tried to squeeze out a smile, but the wound was too painful. She tried her best, but she only frowned and raised the corners of her mouth.
Zhang Ren hugged Liuli tighter. He choked with sobs and asked, "Why? Why do you want to block the flying knife?"
Zhang Ren is still self-aware. Of course, he will not think that just a kiss can make Liuli fall in love with him. Even if Liuli has a slight affection for him, he will never be able to risk his own body to block the flying knife.
Liuli did not answer, but asked Zhang Ren, "Am I going to die?"
Zhang Ren shook his head desperately, tears streaming down his face, "No! You won't die! I won't let you die! The doctor will be here in a minute, and you will be fine in a minute. .”
Zhang Ren's tears fell on Liuli's face, and then flowed down his cheeks and into Liuli's mouth.
Liuli seemed to taste the bitterness in her tears, "You don't have to blame yourself, death is not bad for me. Just like what you said in your poem, life is precious and love is more valuable. If it's for freedom, both All can be thrown away.”
Liuli paused for a moment, gasped twice and continued: "A brothel girl like me will probably never have any love in this life, and freedom is even more of a luxury. What else do I have? I just live like a walking zombie. I have tried my best to make people laugh and entertain people with sex, but I don’t know how miserable I will be when I get old and my sex fades. I don’t want to be like this, I really don’t want to be like this. Instead of doing this, it’s better to die.”
Philosophy of life is often difficult to understand, but Liuli's life has no choice from beginning to end. Faced with a life that can see the end at a glance, Liuli has been very negative from a very early age. As time goes by, it becomes more and more The young lady was a little tired of the world. The reason why she risked her life to block the flying knife was probably because she had lost confidence in her future life.
Maybe she talked a little too much, and Liuli coughed.
Zhang Ren shook his head and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? We have already married today and you are my wife. You don't need to entertain others with sex or look at other people's faces, even if you want to pursue freedom , the sky and the earth are huge, and I can accompany you to see all kinds of beautiful scenery."
"We can build a house on the beach, raise children there, watch the sunrise against the sea breeze in the morning, and enjoy the sunset against the sunset in the evening."
The picture Zhang Ren painted was very beautiful, but Liuli said self-deprecatingly: "You are a distinguished noble, and I am just a brothel girl. If it is really like what you said, how can we face the world?"
Zhang Ren shook his head, "As long as I can be with you, what does it matter if I don't become this noble person? What do all the people in the world have to do with me? I don't care at all!"
Who knows that Liuli said: "Why do you have to deceive yourself? The price of my redemption is one thousand taels. You are willing to spend one thousand five hundred taels to be my guest, but you have never thought of redeeming your life for me..."
Zhang Ren felt regretful in his heart. If he had known this, he should have spoken out about his desire to redeem Liuli's life.
Zhang Ren said: "I thought about it when I kissed you. I will definitely redeem your life. You can't run away. You can only be mine in this life!"
Zhang Ren then looked up at Fu Rang and said, "Brother Fu, lend me the banknotes you have on you, and I will redeem Liuli's life!"
Fu Rang did not dare to delay, and quickly handed over all the Ming Dynasty treasure notes on his body to Zhang Ren.
The blood on Zhang Ren's hand was stained with the banknotes, and he said to the old bustard: "I want to redeem myself for Liuli! Now! Go!"
The madam nodded desperately, said "ok" and went to look for Liuli's deed of betrayal.
Liuli smiled miserably, "Why are you wasting money? I'm already dying."
Zhang Ren choked and shook his head, but couldn't say anything.
The madam came back soon.
Liuli also said again: "I'm really about to die."
Zhang Ren, on the other hand, gave all the banknotes in his hand to the madam. He took Liuli's prostitution group and made a ball, with the inner energy flowing in his palms.
When he opened his hand again, Liuli's contract of betrayal had turned into ashes.
Liuli's life continued to flow away with blood. Although it was in great pain, she still held on and said, "Why bother? Is it worth it?"
Zhang Ren already knew that Liuli's life might not be saved, but he had no regrets. Even though his face was filled with tears, he still gave Liuli a smile and said, "You are my woman, of course you are worth it. You were clear when you were born." Be innocent, you will remain innocent from now on."
Liuli smiled. At this moment, she really felt like being loved. This feeling was very good and made her heart full.
Liuli stretched out her hand tremblingly and gently touched Zhang Ren's face.
Zhang Ren also took advantage of the situation and kissed Liuli's lips again.
Liuli seemed to see the kind of life with spring flowers blooming facing the sea. The corners of her mouth raised, and she felt extremely satisfied.
Then, her hand slid down from Zhang Ren's cheek. A generation of oiran, no, she was innocent, she could no longer be called an oiran. A generation of beauties passed away.
