Virtue is Abundant

Chapter 7: Fire And Knife

“There’s not much left…”

Wu Xiaode looked at the balance display on the phone screen and couldn’t help sighing.

This is the money I saved for a semester!

But then again, I hope the commission on the wall is completed.

He also survived safely, and also obtained the inheritance of the iron line style boxing.

Be content.

Now is the time to go home and rest, think about how to get a living allowance, and think about what to do in the next few days to make yourself stronger.

After all, half a day has passed.

In six and a half days, he will be teleported to the Devil’s Den once again.

As Wu Xiaode walked, he looked 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 entrusted me?

It seems that he knows what he is thinking-

A new ice crystal small print appeared on the Book of the Dead:

“Neither undead nor heroic spirits can communicate with living people. Only extremely rare professional abilities can communicate with them, such as this book.”

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

I see.

Wu Xiaode turned around the corner, suddenly felt something, 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.

Almost at the same moment, the phone in my pocket vibrated and rang.

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

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

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

“Xiao Wu, run quickly, don’t come back!”

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

beep —

The phone hangs up.

Immediately afterwards, a message appeared on the phone screen:

“A large-scale fire broke out in the No. 361 old district in the south of the city.”

There… isn’t that your own home?

Xia Huilan was 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.

“fine…”

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

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

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

bang-

Wu Xiaode kicked the door open and looked inside.

“Sister Lan!”

He shouted.

no respond.

I saw that Xia Huilan’s certificates from childhood were sticking to the wall. They had been blackened by smoke, and they seemed to be ruined.

This is her baby, but 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.

The blood flowed down her arm incessantly.

– 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 squatted down to examine the woman’s face carefully.

– Not Xia Huilan!

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

No pulse.

She is dead.

Why did a strange woman die in Xia Huilan’s house?

And the fire is about to go down!

Wu Xiaode suddenly remembered many things.

Xia Huilan said she wanted to resign.

She was entangled by several gangsters, and the remote gangsters even brought knives.

That U disk.

and her last words.

Scene after scene flashed through his mind, so that Wu Xiaode suddenly realized one thing.

Perhaps this fire is not simple.

There was a sudden noise at the door.

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

“Should you say that you are stupid, or that you are quite 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 **** boss!

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

“Stinky boy, you made me make a fool of myself during the day.” The **** said.

“Make a fool of yourself? How do 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 is not a fruit knife, this time I want to find a way back.”

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

Wu Xiaode took out something from behind and held it up to point at the gangster.

The gangster glanced at it and said, “Gun!”

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

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

The bastard’s expression changed, he waved his machete, and shouted sternly, “Come on, take out the knife, and compare with me to see who is more powerful!”

Bah—

Wu Xiaode pulled the trigger.

A bullet flew past the gangster and hit the wall.

The **** froze.

Wu Xiaode pointed at the ground with the barrel of his gun.

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

“Brother, spare my life.” He begged.

Wu Xiaode asked, “Why are you here?”

“Little brother, I lost when I put you right in the afternoon, and even turned around and ran in front of my brothers, which made everyone no longer obey me – I want to learn from you again, just saw you come upstairs, so I followed come up.”

The **** was covered in cold sweat, and his voice trembled.

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

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

“You have to come upstairs to fight me at the risk of dying in the fire, unless there is any benefit in doing so.”

“What’s the benefit?”

Wu Xiaode paused.

There was thick smoke billowing outside the window.

The temperature starts 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 corpse.

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

“in other words-”

“You actually came to kill me.”

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

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

“I…”

The **** pursed his lips twice, then suddenly turned 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.

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

Snapped!

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

Wu Xiaode threw a backhand punch and flew the gangster out, hitting the wall, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com spat out a mouthful of blood.

“When I was in the alley, it was obviously just a fight, but you were going to stab me with a knife. I felt something was wrong at the time, and now you are here again – are you waiting for me to come back, so that you can kill me?”

Wu Xiaode’s eyes were full of anger.

He grabbed the gangster’s neck, pressed it to the ground, and shouted, “What’s going on? Why do you have to kill me?”

The **** just panted, but didn’t speak.

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

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

Thick smoke seeped into the room, and the fire became 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 don’t tell me why—it doesn’t matter, I just need to keep you here.”

After Wu Xiaode finished speaking, he tied the gangster’s hands, feet and body to the chair.

When he finished all this, he walked outside without looking back.

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

The temperature is scorching hot.

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

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

“Speak.” Wu Xiaode said without looking back.

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

(Thanks to the leaders of the two bosses, Dawn Y Chenxi and Big Pineapple and Little Apple, for the reward. The boss is very generous!)
