Volume 3: The Secret of the Door Chapter 74: You don’t understand the taste of oranges!
Is there really such a thing as 'immortality'?
As the other party spoke, a fleeting sense of voyeurism appeared in Goethe's perception.
Goethe stared at the other person without changing his expression.
The person who said this, the fingers of his left hand began to rot at a speed visible to the naked eye, followed by the entire palm, and then spreading to the entire arm.
The flesh turned black and the bones rotted.
Like a hundred-year-old dry bone.
The wind blows.
Just dispersed.
The other party seemed to be accustomed to it and did not even look at the empty sleeves. He just stared at Goethe as if he had discovered some priceless treasure.
“Is it true?”
“Is it true?”
“Is it true?”
The other party kept talking to himself , while his remaining right hand kept knocking on the stone table in front of him. After more than ten times, he stopped. During the whole process, his eyes never left Goethe.
Those eyes are like stars.
Not only does it sparkle, it can also peek into people’s hearts.
It seems that no secret can escape these eyes.
But where there is glory, there must be shadow.
As the river of destiny moves forward, there will be places shrouded in shadows. In Goethe's skill bar, [Blood Hidden] begins to flash, neither fast nor slow.
Just like the shadow itself.
Obscuring Goethe's fate.
Let the tributaries of fate have no beginning or end, and no trace of flowing.
puff!
The other person's eyes exploded directly, like two eggs smashed on the ground, juice splashing everywhere.
The tumor that had been protruding under his face exploded at this moment.
puff!
Puff puff puff!
One tumor after another exploded.
But more tumors grew out. Without the cover of the face, the opponent's head completely turned into a flesh ball covered with tumors. It was not only hideous but also disgusting.
However, the other party smiled happily.
“Life is like a game of chess, each game is new.”
“The human heart is like a chess game, and every game is filled with hatred.”
"I thought that was it, but I didn't expect that something unexpected would happen. Those two guys often mentioned 'the one that got away'. Are you the one that got away?"
The other party spoke softly, but without waiting for Goethe to speak, he continued: "Of course you are the 'one who escaped', your existence should be the work of Zhao Jingjue.
He had already discovered something was wrong back then.
However, he was too late.
He doesn't have time anymore.
So, he has to do it.”
As he said that, the other party stood up, as if nothing had happened, and walked in the pavilion with his only remaining hand behind his back, from one side of the table to the other.
Bursts of laughter followed.
“This is great!”
"Very good!"
The other person was laughing so hard that he fell backwards, and if he could still shed tears, he would definitely let them flow.
"I thought I had no chance!"
"I didn't expect that God would take pity on me and give me this opportunity!"
"Goethe..."
The other party wanted to say something, but it was obvious that this body could not hold on any longer. More decay began to spread, and even the other party could not stop it.
The sound stopped abruptly.
The other party just disappeared.
Only a piece of tattered clothing was left, melting in the corrosive liquid.
Goethe watched this scene quietly.
He knew he was in unexpected trouble again.
He certainly hated trouble.
But he was never afraid when faced with troubles that he could not avoid.
Instead, he responded positively.
Because he has enough confidence.
"'Tingqi Pavilion' is dead..."
"Another wave of harvest."
Goethe muttered to himself and went straight back to Jiqin's residence.
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, New Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise had already fallen to the ground, without a breath left.
All four died.
The death was horrific.
It looked similar to the corroded appearance of the owner of the Tingqi Pavilion that Goethe had seen, but his body was still intact, with only the epidermis gone, leaving only the appearance of bright red muscles.
Ji Qin was unconscious on the ground.
Goethe picked up the tea beside him and poured it on the other person's face.
The cool breeze hit Ji Qin and she woke up suddenly.
"grown ups."
Looking at Goethe standing in front of him, Ji Qin had no idea what had happened, but having seen the horrific deaths he immediately turned over and knelt on the ground, with his forehead pressed against the ground, without any ambiguity.
She didn't know what was going on.
All I know is that Goethe took action.
Then, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, New Suzaku and Black Tortoise died.
And he died so miserably.
She doesn't want to die.
I don't want to die so miserably.
Having already surrendered before, it is natural that he would be even more obedient at this time.
Goethe's eyes were unconsciously attracted by the existence that covered his feet. Ji Qin moved that existence very rhythmically. While it was pleasing to the eyes, a word appeared in Goethe's mind: wave.
Waves of waves.
The shape and appearance are very similar .
"grown ups."
Ji Qin, who was crawling on the ground, came over and rubbed Goethe's feet and calves like a cat. Her voice was very soft, like a piece of cotton wool tickling Goethe's heart.
Goethe narrowed his eyes.
Then, just stand at the back and feel the shock absorption effect.
It’s done.
Ji Qin wiped Goethe's body carefully and gently.
Goethe ordered.
"Go help me do two things."
"First, find the complete set of "Seven Emotions and Six Desires Shocking Method."
"Second, recover all the murder weapons in the 'Tingqi Pavilion' and the 'Four Gates and Four Halls' that were stained with the blood of the descendants of the 'Martial Saint'."
As Goethe spoke these words, the Four Wonders of the South China Sea, the Six Ghosts of Mangshan, and the Three Heroes of Jiangdong appeared outside.
He knew that women like Ji Qin were the smartest and would work for him wholeheartedly, but he needed the fastest speed, so he had to arrange some helpers.
As for Ji Qin’s own people?
Maybe there are some in the dark, but definitely not many.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have been forced into this desperate situation just now.
"Yes, sir."
The smart Ji Qin did not change her attitude because of what happened.
She knew that her bargaining chip was not only her body, but also her abilities.
Otherwise, good times will pass by.
She wanted to stand in front of Goethe, but she couldn't be a vase.
With this thought in mind, Ji Qin set off immediately.
Goethe walked out of the door.
Qian Ding and Sun Liu were already waiting outside the door.
"Sir, would you like a taxi?"
Qian Ding asked.
"No, let's go."
Goethe answered this and walked quickly towards a fruit stand in his memory.
Qian Ding and Sun Liu had no objection.
The two didn't know what Goethe was going to do, but they just followed him.
Then, I saw Goethe buying oranges.
The taste of oranges can effectively mask certain smells, especially squeezed orange peels, which are even more effective - this is definitely not the result of practice, but was told to Goethe by a somewhat perverted person when he was in his hometown 'club'. Compared with other 'club' members, this guy can be regarded as Goethe's friend, and provided great help in Goethe's process of destroying the 'club'.
Afterwards, Goethe invited the other party to become a " cleaner .
At the beginning, the two got along quite well. The other was cautious, hardworking, serious and calm. They were a perfect partner, until... one of them accidentally came into contact with the game.
Every day I either draw cards or play solo.
Not to mention being late for work and leaving early.
Life has completely lost its regularity.
"I hope you're not lying."
Goethe ate an orange and squeezed the peel.
This behavior continued all the way to Boxing Gym Street.
Fighters have keen senses. Some smells that are difficult for ordinary people to smell are clearly audible to fighters, and some seemingly concealed movements can be discovered by fighters.
So, Goethe gave the remaining two oranges to Qian Ding and Sun Liu.
The two were confused.
But in response to Goethe's suggestion, they all peeled the skin and ate it.
"Sir, the oranges here are good and very sweet."
Sun Liu said while chewing.
"Yeah?"
"I'll buy you some next time."
Goethe said these words and walked into the boxing gym.
The female swordsman was sitting in the yard.
When he saw Goethe coming back safe and sound, he immediately smiled.
However, as he walked over, the tip of his nose twitched slightly.
There was doubt in the eyes of the female swordsman.
Then, his attention was attracted by the flowers that Goethe took out from his arms.
"Just now when I passed by a fruit shop, I saw a beautiful flower there. I thought it would go well with you, so I wanted to pick it, but I was a little embarrassed. So I bought some oranges and asked the shop owner for this flower - just as I thought, it really goes well with you."
As Goethe spoke, he put a flower on the female swordsman's head.
Holding an iron rod, Sun Liu, with dark and red skin, looked suddenly enlightened.
So that's what it is.
He asked why his parents went to buy oranges for no reason.
It turned out that I was too embarrassed to ask the store for flowers directly.
Qian Ding, who was standing aside, looked at Sun Liu's appearance and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This friend can get along.
Honest.
Simple-minded.
It's good to believe whatever others say.
Qian Ding thought about it in his heart, and his face showed an expression of "I see".
The female swordsman looked shy and let Goethe put the flower in her hair.
Then, Goethe took the opportunity to pull the female swordsman and walked towards the room.
There is a mirror in the room.
See more clearly.
As they walked, Goethe recounted what had just happened.
"What?"
"The so-called 'Sacred Heart Society' of 'Four Sects and Four Halls' was established by the head of 'Tingqi Pavilion'?"
"And the head of the Tingqi Pavilion is also being controlled by someone?"
After hearing Goethe's story, even the female swordsman couldn't help but exclaim.
She didn't understand why.
But she knew it clearly.
A conspiracy is coming towards her and Goethe.
Unconsciously, the female swordsman clenched Goethe's hand.
Goethe gently patted the female swordsman's palm. When the female swordsman looked up at him, Goethe smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything!" Then he paused for a moment and said, "The look just now didn't seem like control, but rather a bit like parasitism - in short, it was a bit disgusting. I'll leave that yard to Zot, he knows what to do."
"Leave it to Zot?"
The female swordsman was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted.
"Do you suspect that the person who parasitized the head of Tingqi Pavilion came from the Security Committee?"
"Um."
Goethe nodded.
He pulled the female swordsman towards the bed.
"The influence of 'Tingqi Pavilion' in the Thirteen Continents is unquestionable. The only ones that can be compared with it are the so-called 'Tiandao League', 'Emperor Lotus Sect', and 'Security Committee'."
"And the strength of the Pavilion Master of Tingqi Pavilion is even closer to the top."
"Adding the two together, the person who parasitized the master of Tingqi Pavilion is only those people."
Goethe explained.
The female swordsman frowned.
It’s not that I doubt Goethe’s guess.
The female swordsman firmly believed in Goethe's guess, but precisely because of this, it turned out to be far more troublesome than imagined - because no matter which of those people was that guy, it would not be a good result.
"We should inform the Qin family and the Xie family... Oh, what are you doing?"
The female swordsman's serious answer turned into an exclamation as Goethe unbuttoned his clothes.
Goethe came closer shamelessly and whispered in the female swordsman's ear.
"Dry."
…
Zote has seen many dead bodies. As a member of the "Safety Committee", before becoming the "Chairman of the Green Vine City Safety Committee", Zote went to the "grassroots" and "on-site" every day.
Basically, as long as Zot has time, he will take over most of the cases involving "fighters" in Green Ivy City.
Naturally, I have seen all kinds of strange corpses.
There are ordinary people who commit murders, disguised as fighters.
There are also those who are fighters themselves.
In order to imitate, the former naturally uses some incredible means.
The corpse was naturally a horrible sight.
The latter is more straightforward.
But the corpse was not much better.
So, Zot thought he was knowledgeable, but this kind of skinned corpse that looked like a bullfrog about to be put into a hot pot was the first time he had seen it.
This was enough to surprise him.
What surprised him even more was the identities of the five bodies.
"Are they the corpses of the masters of the four sects, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise?"
"The burnt one is also the leader of Suzaku Sect?"
Zote stared at Muheiya with wide eyes.
As he became the president of a place, Zot's authority increased to the point where he could know some secret things. For example, each of the four sect leaders of Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Suzaku, and Black Tortoise possessed extremely powerful secret weapons, and each of them possessed the ultimate power. Moreover, if the two were added together, a fighter who normally possessed the ultimate power would be killed instantly when facing any one of the four of them.
"The one who was burnt was the former leader of Suzakumen."
"The one being skinned is the new leader of Suzaku Sect."
Muheiya corrected Zote's words.
Zot can know some secret things.
Mu Heiya knew better.
But he would rather not know this.
For example, when Mu Heiya saw the pool of rotten and smelly water in the courtyard not far away, he felt as if struck by lightning.
Without paying attention to Zote standing by, Mu Heiya took out his encrypted cell phone and dialed a number.
Beep, beep.
Busy tone, call not connected.
I dialed again, but still got a busy tone.
I dialed again and the phone was turned off directly.
Mu Heiya stood there as if he had lost his parents.
"What's wrong?"
Zot asked in a low voice.
Mu Heiya gave a smile that was uglier than crying: "It's okay, there was a little problem."
But deep down in my heart, I was in turmoil.
Wrong!
Wrong!
All wrong!
He yelled and called the remaining numbers on his cell phone, but every one of them was turned off.
Mu Heiya's body swayed and he fell to the ground.
There was only one thought left in my mind -
"It's over!"
