C94

"Cough, cough, cough, cough." Dazzling Spring got up with a fierce cough, his pale face revealing a sickly bright red color.

The door was opened, and the breeze outside caused the shallow marks to shiver. The coughing became even more severe. The person who came in closed the door and walked quickly to Drifting Water's side, patting his back.

Dazhi stopped coughing and said in a low voice, "Sorry for troubling you, I'm already much better." He moved to the side, avoiding the hand he was using to support himself and pulled his loose clothes.

"Yo, so polite? What's there to be shy about? "

Hearing Gong's creepy laughter, Qian Jin couldn't help but be startled. He asked, "Is that you?"

"It can't be me? You dislike me? I was just let out by the shadow, returned to the valley to clean up the mess you left and then ran to see you. In the end, tsk tsk, wasn't Zhong Li very disappointed? " As he said this, he saw that it was difficult for Drifting Water to move, so he reached out to help him lie down.

Dazzling Spring touched the heavy cloth wrapped around his eyes and ignored his joke. He asked hoarsely, "How is it inside the valley?"

Gong Du tilted his head: "How is it? Not bad. But since the two of us aren't here together, Xuan Yuan almost died from exhaustion. Once I got back, he immediately fell ill. "

Dang Hen was silent for a moment before he said, "Sorry."

Gong Tianni was clearly gloating as he laughed, "No need to apologize. Let me tell you, you don't know how delicate Xuanyuan faints. I left him on the bed and went to see him the next day. Can you imagine how he looked like, with his arms around the quilt and his mouth pouting as he buried half his face in the quilt? There was also Wen Qihua, he actually wasn't beaten to death by Young Master. Now, the young master was enlightened for only a few days, and he still hadn't woken up. But that was a huge profit! According to Feng Qiong, he had given a total of sixty percent of his power to Wen Qichua. That was sixty percent! It was not the slightest bit less than the internal energy that Wen Qishua had cultivated. This was equivalent to having double the original amount of inner strength. How amazing was that! Also, my disciple … "

Although he was not curious about these things, he still quietly listened and did not interrupt Gong Jue's words.

Gong Tianxiong also knew that these words he said weren't actually out of his interest, but these words he said could make Qian Jin feel a bit more at ease. It was common for killers to be injured, and it was also normal for them to be injured to be recuperated. But anyone who was pulled back from the brink of death could not see, could not take things out of their hands, and could not be in a good mood after lying in bed for more than two months between fainting and a brief moment of lucidity.

The shallow mark eye is injured, the eye is wrapped cannot see. Being a hitman was clearly a very torturous thing. Drifting Water would especially reject the idea of others getting close to him, so he didn't want anyone to talk to him. How unbearable was the loneliness of dozens of days? As such, as he listened to Gongzi Sou's nonsense, the smile on his face gradually grew wider.

Gong Jue looked at his smile and did not remind him. He just told him all the "interesting things" he could say and then suddenly asked, "Why did you hide out just now? Didn't you find out it was me? "

He lightly pursed his lips and said with a tone of disbelief, "That's right …" "Why didn't I notice it?"

Gongzi scrutinized him and asked, "Have you relaxed after lying in bed for too long?"

Only after a long while did he gently nod his head, replying with a "En".

Gong Tianxiong suddenly stomped his foot, then he saw Drifting Water's body shudder, his muscles tensed up as he "looked" at where he was standing. Gong Du couldn't help but smile in satisfaction, "What do you think? Isn't it fine? Why then? Rest in peace, I asked Zhong Li, she said your eyes can be opened in another ten days or so. Although your injuries are obviously still unhealed, your eyes are as good as healed. I'll be back after I train. "

"It was easy to say."

Gongzi scoffed coldly, "Easy? It wasn't easy at all. I've been with you for almost fifteen years. If you die and become a cripple, half of my abilities will be wasted. If it wasn't on account of you being half-dead, wouldn't I beat you up? One month! I've already been back in the Dark Valley for more than half a month, and I still have to wait for you for another ten days.

When shallow marks heard him complain, she heaved a sigh of relief and lightly laughed, "You should be glad that I saved my life."

Gong Du's voice was filled with rage, "I purposely rushed over to the Beggar Gang to beat up Wen Qi Hua. If you die, hmph... It seems like I can't do anything. "

Asked, "Did the Young Master say anything about me?"

Gongzi replied, "Nothing much, there's nothing much to say, right? [I told you to take good care of yourself. I told you to be careful next time. I told you not to feel guilty. Oh, the Young Master said that you shouldn't take your life as such, Drifting Water. If you die, Gongzi Yi's mood will be bad and he'll have to eat a few less meals. What do you do when he's hungry? "

Light Mark helplessly smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't die this time. I'll be more careful in the future. I won't leave you alone."

Gongzi agreed. "Yeah, you better not die. Otherwise, if I were to sneak out and hide, who would clean up the mess in the valley? Didn't I have to read through every single word of the poison formulas and intelligence reports before copying them? "I hate these trivial things the most. Just thinking about it makes my head hurt."

The smile on his face suddenly dimmed, and his expression turned serious. "Gongzi, if it was you, you wouldn't have done this to yourself, right? Your words will definitely be better than mine. "

Gong Tianni was slightly startled, "What do you mean by that?"

Qian Jin laid down quietly and said softly, "These days, I can't see anything. It doesn't matter even if I sleep or wake up. It's just like an abnormally long dream. I also dreamed about our past. You've been better than me since fifteen years ago. No matter if it is reciting, or practicing martial arts, you will learn faster than me. I tried my best to imitate you so that I could just barely catch up with you. I also know that my kung fu is not the same as yours, and I may not be much worse than yours. But every time I see you on the treetops, flying over the eaves, watching you kill so quickly, I'm afraid. I was afraid that the hall master would hate me and that I would be thrown back into the ice and snow, unable to eat my fill. Fear... I will drag you down by being your companion. "

"Later on, you spent more time learning how to use poison, while I continued to practice my qinggong and my hook. Practice, how to use every part of your body, so that I can draw more unrelated people away from you in future missions, so that I can live longer in the pursuit of others. You said, I'm not your vassal, I'm a good killer. However, the hall master said that as long as I did what he taught me, I would be fine. You are a black shadow in the dark, and I am dressed in white, making myself a lamp in the night, and leading away all those who can see me. If they chase after me, they won't notice your invisible shadow. So many years, so many years, so many missions … I don't even have the courage to hate you. I just blindly followed you, blindly following your orders and blindly using my own dangers to exchange for your success. "

"I always thought that I was willing to become the light that lives for you. But then I met young master, and I saw a shadow. Before that, I laughed when I heard the name 'Shadow.' I thought it was a very interesting name. I had at least one other name, but he was so deprived of it that he became the shadow of the world behind him. I laughed at his pity, and at myself. You and I are only on the same side, but you are not my master either. However, the young master and his shadow were still the servants. I thought Shadow would be a guy who had no self-respect, who would only be submissive and wouldn't get any respect. Not really. At that time, the young master was cheerful, smiling, gentle and rational. Shadow followed him in silence, serving him like a loyal servant, standing in front of him to protect him. Young Master naturally enjoys what the Shadow has done, but he cares about the Shadow and respects him. "

"I know, I know. You and I are both assassins, the best assassins. I am also very glad that I have you by my side, because I am really relieved to entrust my back to you and trust everything I have to you. As long as I am with you, I will never worry about failure. "

"But the one who is good is you, not me. I know that I won't be a burden to you, and you can't leave me. At the same time, I am very clear that you only rely on me because we have been together for more than ten years, not because you need me. Since we've arrived at the Netherworld Valley, our relationship has not been so close. You can complete all of the missions by yourself. You don't want to stay in the valley with me and read those words. I'm getting farther and farther away from you, and I'm scared, and I don't know what to do. The person following beside the 'drunken stupor' was the 'soul-reaping husband'. But I left you, no. "I …"

"It's done." After listening for a long time, Gong Tiantang lightly interrupted, "That's enough for you to complain to me."

Dazzling Spring was startled. "I …"

Gong Du asked: "Didn't you ask me, if it was me, would I have done better? I will definitely do better than you, there is no doubt about it. Just like how young master must let me do it even though you know that you are stronger than me in handling information. " He switched to another leg to carry his own weight. "It's just like you, who can disguise yourself, is more suited to spy on people, and I, who use poison, am more suitable to kill the underlings of Puppet Palace."

Asked, "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" As you said, in our ten years as killers, we ate and slept at the same table, practiced kung fu together, and assassinated together. We knew each other too well to know that even though we knew our own weaknesses, we didn't value them because someone else could make up for it. What the young master wanted was not a pair of assassins, but two trusted aides. If we were to work together, we might be able to become one of the top three experts under the Young Master, but if we were to separate, we would only be able to be in the top twenty — or, at most, I would be able to be in the top ten. But you have to understand that I, who learned to protect myself in the light, and you, who learned to hide yourself in the dark, are far better than this. Being able to live without you, I am confident that I can compare to the hall master, the shadow, and everyone else except for Feng Qiong. And you, too. "

It was clear that Qian Jin hadn't recovered from his shock. He lay on the bed without moving, not saying a word.

Gong Sou chuckled, "Of course, that is my guess. Because you went to do a mission that would have been extremely difficult without me, and then came back half dead. I, on the other hand, was almost caught several times in Bianliang City because I lacked you to help me disguise myself. And this result was due to the orders of the crafty and scheming young master. "Ugh …"

Before he could finish, he swallowed the rest of his words as if someone had grabbed him by the neck.
