Chapter 251 Planchette Returns
The Zhou family compound was truly vast, and finding a room to interrogate someone here was an extremely simple matter.
“Why would someone from Cuisongshen Mountain come to kill me?” Su Rui asked, looking at the fishing man lying in the corner who couldn’t stand up.
The man now had at least a dozen fractures throughout his body, and without Su Rui’s approval, he had no hope of leaving this place alive.
“I was entrusted with a task, and I’m loyal to my duty!” The fishing man remained stubborn!
“Bullshit!”
Su Rui slapped him hard, directly knocking out several of his teeth!
“Why are you putting on airs in front of me?” A cold light flashed in Su Rui’s eyes. He had come to Liantang Town, and these people actually dared to follow him here? They were truly courting death!
“If you dare treat me like this… my master won’t let you off…” the fishing man said with a bloody mouth. “Since you know I’m from Cuisongshen Mountain, you should understand who my master is…”
“Is that so? Can I interpret your words as a threat?”
The corner of Su Rui’s mouth curved into a slight arc as he coldly smiled:
“That old fellow Zhang Bufan, does he really think I’m afraid of him?”
When the fishing man heard Su Rui directly name his master, his whole body began to tremble: “Who are you? Who exactly are you? Why do you know so much about Cuisongshen Mountain?”
“Stop playing dumb. You came to kill me, yet you don’t know who I am? Are you an idiot?” Su Rui said impatiently.
He currently had no good feelings toward the people from Cuisongshen Mountain. First, that Nightingale had been relentlessly pursuing him, and now this guy showed up. If Su Rui didn’t want to completely fall out with that old undying Zhang Bufan, he might have killed them on the spot.
That old fellow would still bring Su Rui a certain amount of pressure!
Five years ago, if it weren’t for that old man’s intervention, at least two of the five major family heirs would have died!
“If you confess, I might spare your life. Otherwise, your life has no value to me whatsoever. I hope you understand this point.” As memories floated before his eyes, Su Rui said calmly.
“How can you not fear my master?” The fishing man clearly sensed the killing intent in Su Rui’s eyes. “If you kill me, aren’t you afraid of his revenge?”
“He won’t know I killed you. If he does know, then this incident was directed by him, and after killing you, I’ll go up to Cuisongshen Mountain next.” Su Rui said coldly, his tone very steady, as if describing something completely unrelated to him.
“Speak or not, I’ll give you one minute.” After saying this, Su Rui walked out.
The fishing man’s body was in extreme pain, his mouth full of the taste of blood. He knew Su Rui probably wasn’t joking.
It was all his fault. He had come down the mountain for training, why did he accept such a job? Was it because the price offered was too generous?
Judging by Su Rui’s demeanor, he really might kill him!
While he was still hesitating, Su Rui and Zhou Xianwei pushed open the door and walked in.
“I’ll talk,” the fishing man said, gritting his teeth.
“That settles it. I dislike using bloody methods the most,” Su Rui said.
Zhou Xianwei agreed: “Me too.”
The fishing man felt like crying. He couldn’t help but recall how Su Rui and Zhou Xianwei had tortured him underwater earlier. Those short two minutes could be considered the darkest time in his life! Those methods were all extremely bloody!
Especially that guy called Zhou Xianwei who was even more excessive, punching his vital area more than a dozen times. He still didn’t know if that part had been ruined!
As it turned out, this man’s name was Wang Feizhi, the second disciple of Zhang Bufan from Cuisongshen Mountain, who practiced martial arts daily and rarely came down from the mountain.
Some time ago, he came down the mountain for training and was approached by a man named Li Xuan, who offered two million to buy Su Rui’s head.
After coming down the mountain, Wang Feizhi had been attracted by the colorful world and was short on money. When he heard the price Li Xuan offered, he immediately agreed!
He believed that with his skills, he could easily kill Su Rui, especially after studying a lot of information about him beforehand. This battle should have been no problem!
However, the result far exceeded his expectations.
Wang Feizhi now had multiple broken bones throughout his body, some with irreparable damage. Even if he managed to heal, he would never return to even half his previous level. His martial arts cultivation was completely ruined!
Su Rui didn’t need to think twice to know that this Li Xuan must be using an alias.
“What’s your method of contacting him?” Su Rui asked coldly. The case of Lin Aoxue’s kidnapping was still unsolved, and now another incident had emerged. It seemed he truly had many enemies.
“After completing the task, I would contact him, and he would arrange a meeting place,” Wang Feizhi said truthfully. He wasn’t a death soldier to begin with, and at this point, he had no reason not to confess.
“This guy is quite cunning.” Su Rui frowned and thought for a moment, reviewing the entire incident, then asked: “How much time did he give you to do this?”
“Two months. It’s only the third day now,” Wang Feizhi said.
“Two months. It seems there’s still plenty of time.”
A full sixty days was enough for Su Rui to plan many things!
Su Rui revealed a dagger: “Are you sure everything you’ve said is completely true?”
Seeing the gleaming blade, Wang Feizhi shuddered: “I wouldn’t dare hide anything.”
“Very well.”
As Su Rui spoke, the dagger drew a beautiful arc from top to bottom, stabbing fiercely into Wang Feizhi’s thigh!
“Ah! I told you everything, why would you… it hurts!” Wang Feizhi gasped in pain!
“I never said I wouldn’t stab you.” Su Rui shrugged and turned to leave.
Standing at the doorway, he let out a long breath, looking at the sky outside, his eyes suddenly showing some fatigue.
These assassination attempts, one after another, when would they end? Was his life destined to be like this?
“Big brother, what do you plan to do?” Zhou Xianwei asked.
“I should be asking you that question. What do you plan to do?” Su Rui’s gaze held a hint of playfulness.
“What else can I do? Of course, immerse myself in our country’s landscapes, writing diligently every day…”
Before Zhou Xianwei could finish, Su Rui said: “I want to hear the truth.”
Zhou Xianwei’s expression froze, and he finally put away his nonchalant demeanor: “With you in this situation, if I don’t stand by your side and fight alongside you, I’d be too heartless.”
He smiled: “I’ve left once, but I promise, that was also the last time.”
Su Rui made a fist and punched him lightly on the chest.
Once brothers, now finally reunited!
Both of them were completely soaked and in a sorry state, so they went to Zhou Xianwei’s bathroom to shower. In the past, the brothers would do this together after a battle, washing away all their fatigue with a comfortable bath.
However, at this moment, with two men so nakedly exposed to each other, they felt a strange awkwardness in their hearts.
Su Rui quickly finished washing and walked out, with only a bath towel wrapped around his body, but unexpectedly encountered Ming Jie as soon as he came out.
“Auntie, why are you here?”
Due to wearing so little, Su Rui felt somewhat embarrassed.
“Oh my, son-in-law, your muscles are really amazing…” Ming Jie’s eyes lit up at first, not thinking about why Su Rui would appear in her son’s bedroom, but the scene that followed left her completely stunned.
Zhou Xianwei didn’t even have a bath towel on his body, appearing completely exposed in front of Ming Jie!
He seemed unaware that his mother was present, wiping his face while saying, “Big brother, let’s sleep together tonight. Don’t worry, I won’t take advantage of you…”
Ming Jie looked at her son, then at Su Rui. Between the two of them, they had only one bath towel!
“What are… you two doing?” Ming Jie said with great difficulty.
…
After leisurely accompanying Zhou Anke in the beautiful Liantang Town for ten days, Su Rui felt much of his fatigue had dissipated.
Every day playing chess, boating, walking on the bluestone paths, and admiring beautiful people was indeed very pleasant.
Zhou Anke was happy every day. In these few years, her face had never shown so many smiles.
However, time always flies quickly, and no matter how happy one is, there eventually comes a day of parting.
A Passat carried three people, and this time, Zhou Xianwei was also leaving with them.
As for the Cuisongshen Mountain disciple Wang Feizhi, he was taken away by Jin Taizhu in a truck. With so many broken bones, he couldn’t cause any trouble. Otherwise, with his skills, even Su Rui would have had to retreat.
Ming Jie was reluctant to see the children leave. At parting, she still held Su Rui’s hand, talking about having a chubby baby boy next year, to which he could only smile bitterly and nod repeatedly.
As for Zhou Xianwei, he already knew that Su Rui and his sister didn’t have that kind of relationship. It was all his mother’s misunderstanding. He wisely chose to remain silent, otherwise, the Zhou family would become the laughingstock of Liantang Town.
However, Zhou Xianwei did hope the two would develop a relationship. After all, every brother wants to find the best man for his sister, and without doubt, Zhou Xianwei believed that only Su Rui in the whole world was worthy of his sister.
On the way back, Zhou Anke curled up in the back seat without speaking, feeling lost.
These days in Liantang Town were the happiest days of her life, carefree and without worries. She was sad because once they returned to Ninghai, she and Su Rui could no longer continue this lifestyle.
Looking at Su Rui driving, Zhou Anke’s eyes misted over.
…
In the vast mountains separated from China by an entire ocean, a formation of armed helicopters was flying through.
This was not the military of any country, as all the helicopters were painted with skull emblems!
The helicopters hovered about ten meters above a mountaintop. Fast-ropes were dropped, and black-clad men slid down the ropes!
These people all wore black sunglasses, black tight-fitting clothes, and even their gloves were black!
At that moment, a large door suddenly opened in the middle of the mountain, and more than a dozen men in yellow camouflage military uniforms quickly emerged!
Leading them was a young man who held an upside-down submachine gun and had a toothpick in his mouth, looking nonchalant.
It was none other than Shao Zihang, one of the Gemini under the Sun God!
“Pluto’s people?” Shao Zihang looked at the menacing black-clad men around him and sneered: “Gentlemen, the old man Pluto might be sleeping in some girl’s bed right now, and you’ve come from far away. You’re not here for a hookup, are you? We only have men here, no girls!”
Hearing this, the black-clad men suddenly changed expression: “You dare disrespect Lord Pluto? You’re seeking death!”
Shao Zihang waved his hand, and the soldiers’ gun barrels immediately aimed at the black-clad men. He scoffed: “You should feel honored. At the gates of the Sun God Temple, you’re the first person who dares to say we’re seeking death!”
As Shao Zihang finished speaking, four heavy machine gun positions emerged from the mountain base’s surface! The dark gun barrels covered all the black-clad men!
