The dagger cut through the skin mercilessly, then cut open the blood vessels and muscles underneath, and was about to pierce into the beating heart.
But the next moment, it suddenly stopped in mid-air.
No matter how hard its owner tried, he couldn't move forward even half an inch.
And all it takes to stop it is two fingers.
"After Wu Ritu's death, how could I not prevent you from killing anyone again?" Lu Jing said leisurely.
However, before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
Because he found that the man whose chest was cut by the dagger had breathed his last.
Lu Jing blocked the fatal blow from his companion for him, but unexpectedly, at the last moment, he chose death himself and took the initiative to press his chest to the tip of the knife.
The lame man named Di looked at the figure slowly falling to the ground with a somewhat moved expression.
Then he said to Lu Jing, "Are you still doubting our determination now? Not everything in this world can be bought with money."
"Or maybe he is worried that after taking my money, his family and friends will be retaliated against by you." Lu Jing said.
"You're just a foreigner who doesn't know anything." The lame man named Di shook his head and didn't explain much. He paused and continued, "Give up. I can assure you that even if you continue to pursue it, you will still be wrong." If nothing is found, more people will die because of you."
Lu Jing seemed to be thinking about his proposal, and then said after a moment, "The biggest problem with you is that you talk too much. You are obviously just a gangster, but you insist on portraying the image of a tough guy with love and justice. As a result, your employer I sold it without even knowing it.”
The face of the lame man named Di changed slightly, but soon returned to normal, "You can't deceive me."
"Maybe. I just want to ask you one last question. Was Uritu killed by your people?"
The lame man named Di learned his lesson this time and made up his mind not to say a word. Then he looked at Lu Jing provocatively.
His eyes seemed to say that if you have the ability, just find the answer yourself.
As a result, he later heard Lu Jingdao, "It seems that Wu Ritu really committed suicide."
The lame man named Di knew that if he spoke at this time, he would play into Lu Jing's hands, but he couldn't help it and asked, "How are you sure we didn't kill him?"
"Because if you do it, you can't do it quietly. Uritu is indeed a very cunning person. It's not for nothing that he lives on that street. The neighborhood is very lively and there are many shops. , there are basically no visual blind spots.
"If anyone wants to sneak in, it is almost impossible. What's more, I have just learned your skills in the bathhouse, and you are just a third-rate master. Someone once said that when you eliminate all mistakes, After the answer, the remaining one, no matter how bizarre it seems, is the truth."
The lame man named Di was ashamed and annoyed when he heard this.
The third-rate master is already a well-known figure in Ganding County. On weekdays, he and the people in his gang walk sideways on the street, and few people dare to look at him.
However, when these words came out of Lu Jing's mouth, he had no way to refute them. After all, he was facing someone who could hurt him even if he stood still.
So he quickly unclenched his clenched fists and said to Lu Jing, "I admit that your martial arts are indeed very high, higher than anyone I have ever seen, but from now on, don't even think about taking any advice from me again." Not a single word could be found in it.”
"It doesn't matter. Thanks to what you three did just now, you should know that I already know almost everything."
After speaking, Lu Jing ignored the two people who were stunned and walked towards the other end of the street.
When he arrived at a deserted place, Lu Jing put on Feng Jiulang's human skin mask that he had just taken off for fishing. After that, he did not go back to join Qi Wenren and others, but wandered around the city.
Ever since Chief Tongtu rebelled and began to dream of founding a nation, driving most of the Chen people away from their territory, the counties and cities in Shizhou have also been in a lot of depression.
Even if he later moved in many Shen people to fill the vacancies, he still could not recreate the lively scene before.
Especially after nightfall, there are only a few pedestrians on the streets of Ganding County.
Many shops closed early due to poor business.
Lu Jing walked all the way from the east of the city to the west of the city, stopping several times to ask locals who knew Chinese for information, and finally came to a row of low thatched huts.
Compared with other places in the city, this place looks much run-down. Many places are still filled with the smell of chicken feces and urine, and it is obvious that humans and animals are mixed.
In fact, no matter how prosperous a town is, there will always be at least one similar place where the poor at the bottom of the city live in shacks and provide a steady stream of cheap labor for the rulers at the top.
Among them are Chen people, Shen people, and other ethnic minorities.
The turmoil in Ganding County some time ago did not spread to this place. Although Chief Tongtu expelled some Chen people, he did not get too excited and drove away the Chen people here, otherwise Ganding County would be able to do so in the blink of an eye. Paralyzed.
And the Shen tribe compatriots here seem to have been forgotten by Chief Tongtu. Anyway, the Shen tribe people here did not get a cent of the wealth that Chief Tongtu had confiscated. On the contrary, it became more difficult because of the depression in the city. Full of food.
The young and strong among them had no choice but to join the army, so the remaining ones here were more women, children, old and weak.
Seeing unfamiliar faces appear, they seemed a little nervous and wary.
Lu Jing took out about dozens of pennies from his body and threw them to a group of children playing around him, and soon won their support.
So Lu Jing then asked them to lead the way to one of the huts.
Lu Jing took out about twenty coins and dismissed the group of brats. Then Lu Jing reached out and knocked on the door.
But the next moment, the door opened first.
A familiar face appeared in front of Lu Jing.
Dole glanced at Lu Jing and didn't ask him why he came here. He just let him into the house like a friend, then pointed to a woman at the table and said, "Saren, my sister."
Then he pointed to a man next to Saren and said, "Menghan, her man, this is Feng Jiulang, a friend."
The three of them must have been eating just now, and there were steaming pancakes and pickles on the table.
Saren enthusiastically invited Lu Jing to eat with him, but the latter declined.
Dole then wiped his mouth and said to the two of them, "You continue to eat. We will go out to do some errands. I won't be back tonight."
