Chapter 7 Fire and Knife

“The balance is running out…”

Wu Xiaode couldn’t help sighing as he watched the balance displayed on the phone screen.

This is the money I saved for a semester!

But then again, the commission on Wishwall is complete.

He also survived safely, and also obtained the inheritance of the Iron Line Fist.

Be content.

It’s time to go home and rest, think about how you can get a living allowance, and think about what you can do in the next few days to make yourself stronger.

After all, half a day has passed.

Six more days and a half, and I will be teleported to the Devil’s Den once again.

Wu Xiaode walked while looking at the black book floating in front of him.

A question suddenly appeared in his mind.

Since that ancestral spirit is so strong, why didn’t he rescue Zhao Junyu himself, but instead entrust me?

Seems to know what he’s thinking-

Book of Undead has new ice crystals in small print:

“Neither undead nor heroic spirits can interact with the living. Communication, only extremely rare professional abilities can communicate with them, such as this book.”

“In addition, no spirit can interfere with the fate of the real world, only with the help of certain professional abilities or props, they can achieve many things.”

so that’s how it is.

Wu Xiaode turned the corner, suddenly had a feeling in the heart, and slowly raised his head.

Front.

Upstairs in the family members of the old community, thick smoke billows, and the fire blazes into the sky.

At about the same moment, the phone in my pocket vibrated and rattled.

He took it out and took a look, and immediately connected.

“Sister Lan, where are you?” he asked nervously.

Sobbing came from the phone, followed by Xia Huilan’s voice:

“Little Wu, run, don’t come back!”

Wu Xiaode complexion changed, and quickly said: “Sister Lan? What’s wrong with you? What happened?”

Beep-

The phone hung up.

Immediately afterwards, a message appeared on the screen of the mobile phone:

“There has been a large-scale fire in the old district of No. 361 in the south of the city.”

There…not myself s home?

Xia Huilan trapped upstairs?

Wu Xiaode rushed out like lightning, and in just a few breaths, he crossed the long street, climbed over the courtyard wall, and came to the downstairs of his family.

Looking up, the flames are constantly engulfing the entire building.

Xia Huilan lives on the fifth floor.

The location of the fire was on the ninth floor. Although the fire was spreading, it was still some distance from the fifth floor where Xia Huilan lived.

“It’s okay…”

Wu Xiaode murmured and rushed directly into the corridor of the unit building.

The body is extremely light, and the feet are full of strength, and can jump up a whole flight of stairs with just a push of force.

In less than a minute, he reached the fifth floor.

Bangdang——

Wu Xiaode kicked the door open and looked inside.

“Sister Lan!”

He shouted.

No response.

I saw the densely packed award that Xia Huilan won through childhood was pasted on the wall. It had been blackened by smoke and looked ruined.

This is her baby, and now she doesn’t care.

Wu Xiaode rushed into the entrance and shouted, “Sister Lan, where are you?”

In the living room.

A woman was tied tightly to a chair, her head bowed, as if she was in a coma.

Blood streamed down her arm.

– After a while, the fire spreads and she has no way to live.

“Sister Lan!”

Wu Xiaode rushed forward, hurriedly trying to save the woman, but suddenly realized that something was wrong.

He crouched down to examine the woman’s face carefully.

– not Xia Huilan!

Wu Xiaode was startled, and reached out to feel the woman’s pulse.

No pulse.

She died.

Why is there a strange woman who died in Xia Huilan’s house?

And the fire is about to go down!

Wu Xiaode suddenly remembered many things.

Xia Huilan says she wants to resign.

She was entangled by a few gangsters, but those gangsters also brought knives.

That U disk.

And her last words.

Scenarios flashed through his mind, so that Wu Xiaode suddenly realized one thing.

Maybe this fire is not simple.

There was a sudden noise at the door.

Wu Xiaode turned around quickly and saw a man standing at the door, looking at himself playfully.

“Should I say you’re stupid, or that you’re infatuated?” the man said.

He was wearing a floral shirt, the fruit knife in his hand had turned into a half-arm-length machete, and he was looking at Wu Xiaode with his head tilted.

That punk boss!

Wu Xiaode stood up and said solemnly: “What’s going on? Why are you here?”

“Smelly brat, you made me look bad during the day.” The bastard said .

“Make a fool of yourself? How can I remember that you wanted to stab me with that fruit knife.” Wu Xiaode said.

“Boy, it’s because of your meat cleaver and fish cutter that I had to retreat—”

The gangster waved the sharp machete in his hand and said proudly: “Look, this isn’t a fruit knife, this time I want to get back on my feet.”

As soon as he sank, he rushed towards Wu Xiaode.

Wu Xiaode took out something from behind and pointed at the gangster.

The gangster glanced at it and lost his voice: “Gun!”

This is a narrow indoor environment, and it is almost impossible to escape from the muzzle of the gun.

This is a gun, why does he have a gun?

The bastard’s face changed, he waved his machete, and shouted sharply: “Come on, there is a kind of knife, and let me see who is better!”

呯——

p>

Wu Xiaode pulled the trigger.

A bullet flew past the gangster and hit the wall.

The bastard froze.

Wu Xiaode pointed at the ground with the barrel.

The bastard put down his machete, raised his hands, and knelt on the ground.

“Big brother, spare my life,” he begged.

Wu Xiaode asked: “Why are you here?”

“Little Brother, I lost in the afternoon when I was right with you, and even turned around and ran in front of my brothers. Let everyone stop obeying me – I want to learn from you again, I just saw you coming upstairs, so I followed.”

The bastard was covered in cold sweat, and his voice was a little bit shaky. trembling.

Wu Xiaode thought for a while, then shook his head and said, “No, if you really want revenge, just wait downstairs at worst. Wouldn’t it be better if I was burned to death?”

>

“This building is already on fire. Human instinct is to seek good luck and avoid harm. You will run away when you see my fish cutter, not to mention such a big fire?”

“You risk your death The danger of fire sea also comes upstairs to fight me, unless there is any benefit in doing so.”

“What is the benefit?”

Wu Xiaode paused.

Puffs of smoke billowed outside the window.

The temperature begins to rise.

The fire is already burning.

Wu Xiaode raised his brows and said, “The advantage of fighting here is fire.”

He looked back at the unfamiliar woman’s body.

“If I die in the fire sea, and my body is burnt thoroughly, no one will know how I died.”

“In other words—”

p>

“You’re actually here to kill me.”

The gangster was shocked, with an incredible look on his face.

Wu Xiaode walked up and put a gun to his head, coldly said: “Am I right?”

“I…”

The bastard He pursed his lips twice, suddenly tilted his head to let the gun open, took out the fruit knife from his arms, and stabbed Wu Xiaode in the chest.

His movements are crisp and fast, like a professional fighter.

Wu Xiaode might not be able to react if it was before, but now——

pa!

With a crisp sound, the dagger in the gangster’s hand was slapped flying .

Wu Xiaode threw a backhand punch, directly flying the gangster out, hitting the wall and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

“When you were in the alley, it was just a fight, but you were going to stab me, I felt something was wrong, and now you are here again – you are waiting for me to come back, and then To kill me?”

Wu Xiaode’s eyes were full of anger.

He grabbed the gangster’s neck, pressed it to the ground, shouted: “What’s going on, why must kill me?”

The gangster just gasped, but didn’t speak.

Wu Xiaode silently nodded, dragged the gangster into the room, tore off the sheets on the bed, and tied the gangster to a chair.

With a single hand, he lifted the gangster together with the chair, put it back in the living room, and placed it opposite the female corpse.

Dense smoke seeped into the room, and the fire was getting more and more intense.

The surging red glow through the glass window, mixed with the loud shouts and shouts outside, reflected on Wu Xiaode’s expressionless face.

“You’re going to kill me, but you don’t tell me why—it doesn’t matter, I just need to keep you here.”

Wu Xiaode finished speaking and put the bastard His hands, feet and body were all tied to the chair.

When he was done, he walked outside without looking back.

The gangster looked at the female corpse opposite and struggled desperately with his hands and feet, but found that he could not break free from the restraint of the chair at all.

The temperature is scorching hot.

The bastard seemed to be submerged in water, and the sweat all over his body couldn’t stop flowing down.

“Wait a minute, I can tell you!” the gangster couldn’t help shouting.

“Say.” Wu Xiaode said without looking back.

“We don’t know about Xia Huilan. We took the bounty and came to kill you.” The bastard said.

(Thanks to the Alliance Leaders of Dawn Y Dawn and Big Pineapple and Little Apple for the reward, the bosses are awesome!)
