Chapter 283: People’s Hearts Are in Chaos
The Judge's Hall was not in chaos, nor would it be.
What was in chaos was the hearts of the living.
Lang Qing's face was pale, and he was half lying on the ground with his legs shaking like sifting bran. He tried his best to sob, but could only make a strange and pale sound.
His wide-open eyes seemed to be squeezed out of his eye sockets, and his restless hands were desperately scratching his mouth.
At this time, he had no mouth or lips.
The faceless ghost would devour the facial features of the living if facing them head-on, and the first thing to be closed was the mouth and nose, suffocating the living to death.
Fortunately, Lang Qing hurriedly came to the rescue, and Shi Dalu acted very quickly, so he barely saved his life.
Shi Dalu pointed angrily, attracting everyone's attention to Ji Li.
Everyone in the fifth branch suddenly looked back and finally saw the chaos in their eyes. Everything happened too fast.
The last second, they were still immersed in the effective snatching of the pass, eager to leave the Judge's Hall as soon as possible, go to the Tenth Hall to change the coffin and escape.
But no one expected that in a short breath, Qiu Xue suddenly turned into a ghost, Lang Qing shut up, and the Judge's Hall was in turmoil.
Shi Dalu pointed all the spearheads at the Seventh Branch.
And all this could not be hidden.
Because Ji Li and the people in the Seventh Branch had already withdrawn twenty steps behind the Faceless Ghost and had long been out of the battle.
Chang Nian, Yu Guo and Dong Yuan were located beside the bronze giant door of the Judge's Hall, and they obviously no longer interfered in this matter.
If you look closely, you will find that they are even some distance away from Ji Li, as if the things they no longer interfered in were also related to Ji Li.
Shi Dalu's face was as gloomy as water, and he grabbed Lang Qing's shoulders and slapped him hard with his right hand.
This slap knocked Lang Qing's hands off his face, and at this time, Lang Qing was so nervous that he had torn off the skin on his mouth with his sharp nails.
"Useless waste!"
Shi Dalu pinched Lang Qing's shoulders and threw him behind him. He stood up with a curse and looked at Ji Li through the faceless ghost.
Ji Li's expression at this moment was calm. His gray-black eyes saw everything, but he seemed to be out of it and stood on his head.
And this expression seemed like a silent provocation in Shi Dalu's eyes. After dealing with Lang Qing, he turned his head to Li Congrong.
"Manager Li, do you care about this matter or not?"
Li Congrong's face was always like this, still as calm as ever, and to some extent, he had a bit of Ji Li's expression.
Shi Dalu's words were already very impolite.
This is not what a deputy manager should say to the manager.
So, behind this sentence is: Shi Dalu is anxious.
This sentence can be interpreted as follows:
"Li Congrong, do you want to tear your face off now?"
Li Congrong's determination to clean up the dissidents in the fifth branch has been revealed step by step as the task progresses.
People like Shi Dalu have long known this.
He even began to guess that Ji Li had killed Qiu Xue and created chaos by some unknown means, which was instructed by Li Congrong.
So, at this point today, he must stand up and seek justice.
Li Congrong didn't even raise his eyelids, and the dull pain in his chest made him more restrained and rational.
Facing Shi Dalu's expression of extreme anger, he slowly opened his lips and said only two words:
"Continue."
But this sentence was not said to Shi Dalu, but to Li Guanqi.
Afterwards, Li Congrong and Li Guanqi, uncle and nephew, no longer interfered in this matter, and continued to use the black and white chess game to collect the guides for the dead souls.
This answer, which was not an answer, had declared Li Congrong's position and his wolf-like determination.
What Li Congrong wants is for everyone present today to die!
For this purpose, he is even willing to use Ji Li's knife to kill people wantonly.
Li Guanqi lowered his head silently, sweat dripping from his forehead, smashing into several petals on the chessboard.
The slender and distinct fingertips, holding the black piece more tightly, have begun to tremble.
His ears are full of the silent roar of the faceless ghost, and his mind will be filled with the shrill and desperate wails of the people in the same store...
And all of this, Li Guanqi is powerless to care about, he doesn't want to play this game like this.
All of this was forced by Li Congrong.
But he can't bear grudges, but be grateful.
Li Congrong is dying, and he is creating a safe and pure living space for his only relative in the remaining time.
The fifth branch cannot be in chaos after his death, but must be better and safer.
In this way, his nephew can naturally inherit everything and become the new manager of the fifth branch.
Until the hand that was unable to make a move was grasped by another steady and warm hand.
Li Congrong leaned over, grabbed Li Guanqi's hand with his own hand, and helped him finish the game.
"You are kind-hearted and kind as a sheep. You are a good boy, but you came to the wrong place."
Li Congrong's eyes, which were originally firm and fierce, turned into a loving and kind look when he fell on Li Guanqi.
"I will kill those you can't kill for you,
I will do things you don't want to do for you.
But this is the last thing I can do for you. Uncle is going to die, and you have to walk your own way in the future.
And you must walk more steadily, longer, more openly, and more brilliantly than me!"
Until now, Li Guanqi still didn't say a word, but his hand gradually became firm and his heart gradually became regretless.
…
"Just a faceless ghost, do you really think you can kill us?"
The scene was divided into four parts.
Li Congrong and Li Guanqi were fighting for the road pass, while Chang Nian and Yu Guo were waiting beside the bronze giant door.
The only ones who were really caught in the battle were Shi Dalu and Du Xiyue, and on the edge of the battle, it was Ji Li who could decide whether to enter or leave.
His position was very delicate, as if he could attract the attack of the faceless ghost within one step, and as if he could sit back and watch the confrontation between Shi Dalu and the faceless ghost.
Shi Dalu's sun hat had been called back, which had a momentary impact on the fight for the road pass, but was also replaced by Li Congrong's right eye.
He used his hands to ruthlessly tear the worn-out sun hat into two halves, throwing one half to Du Xiyue and holding the other half in his own hand.
On his bald head, several half-long hairs were blowing in the windless air, which looked a bit funny with his ferocious face.
And the two halves of the sun hat seemed to delay the attack of the faceless ghost on them.
Shi Dalu and Du Xiyue stood side by side, right in front of the faceless ghost, but the process of becoming faceless was greatly delayed.
And Shi Dalu then took out another inconspicuous thing from his arms, which was slender and delicate, about the size of a little finger.
Then he swallowed the strange thing into his stomach, and a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. After the laughter stopped, half of the hair on his head fell off.
And those hairs that fell to the ground gradually gathered into a ball, and slowly condensed into a head in the air...
But this head surrounded by hair was not aimed at the faceless ghost, but at Ji Li behind it!
Ji Li could feel Shi Dalu's malice towards him, and he waited with interest to see how this bald man would attack him.
For this reason, Ji Li took out a cigarette box from his pocket and lit a cigarette for himself.
The smoke rose up, and he seemed like a person watching a play.
