607 Leading Evil 2
“Then I want to take something from you. As long as you agree, I’ll get Master to help you.”
Little Niu’s eyes were empty as he said lightly.
Father Xiao quickly nodded. “I promise. I’ll agree to anything.”
This master-disciple pair had great abilities but lived in poverty. No matter what request they made, they would not go overboard. Father Xiao agreed without thinking.
After all, in his opinion, no one was more evil than Miao Yuehua.
Thinking that Little Niu couldn’t see, Father Xiao felt guilty. “Good child, I’ve really come to my senses this time. As long as I get through this, you and your master won’t have to travel around anymore. Just stay at home and take care of yourselves. Your master has really worked hard. In the future, I’ll take care of him when he’s old. You don’t have to worry. When I bring everything back, the first thing I’ll do is to find a cure for your eyes. I’ll buy divine medicine for you.”
“I heard that divine medicine is very good. Even a crippled can stand up after eating it. I’m not bragging. The Li Family’s eldest young master, who has been crippled for two years, has recovered in these few days. Your eyes will also recover. We will live well in the future. When you grow up, you can marry a wife and have a few fat boys… If your mother’s spirit in heaven sees this, she will definitely be very happy.”
Speaking of these beautiful expectations, Father Xiao smiled. After experiencing this, he finally understood.
He was originally a poor blacksmith. By chance, he got to know Little Niu’s mother and formed a good fate. He was the one who let her down.
The 12 years were like a dream. Now that he had woken up from his dream, he only wanted to live honestly and make up for his past mistakes. He wanted to treat his son well. It was not easy for Elder Niu to raise his son. He was even older than his father, so it was not a big deal to send him off in his old age.
Moreover, he had turned over a new leaf for his son to see. If he did well, Little Niu would be able to take care of him when he was old.
Father Xiao thought happily.
He didn’t notice that Little Niu’s expression was very cold.
Father Xiao was so focused on constructing his beautiful expectations that he didn’t notice that they were getting further and further away.
He talked non-stop and told him all his beautiful expectations. The corners of his mouth curled up. He said too much and felt a little thirsty. He stopped and realized why he had come to an old forest.
“Son, are you lost? You brought me to a forest.”
Father Xiao didn’t think too much about it. He only thought that Little Niu had bad eyesight and had led him the wrong way.
Little Niu hummed lightly and said, “Father, I seem to have tripped. Help me take a look.”
Father Xiao didn’t suspect anything. He bent down and pushed aside the grass by the roadside, wanting to take a closer look. He said, “It’s fine. It should be weeds—Son—”
Before he could finish his sentence, Father Xiao fell to the ground, and Little Niu put away the cane in his hand.
He fumbled around and took out a hemp rope from his sleeve. He began to tie it round and round.
Su Xiaolu flew down and asked calmly, “Junior Brother, are you going to kill him?”
Little Niu looked in the direction where Su Xiaolu was standing and smiled. His canine teeth were cute, but his smile was no longer warm. His empty eyes were also cold.
Little Niu had changed.
“Yes, Senior Sister, are you going to stop me?”
Little Niu’s answer was very straightforward. He wanted to kill his biological father.
Su Xiaolu did not speak. She just squatted down and began to help Little Niu tie him up.
Little Niu paused.
Su Xiaolu said calmly, “Why should I stop you? It’s all because of him that you’ve suffered so much. That’s why Uncle-Master Niu lost his life. Your mother is really unlucky to have met such a heartless thing. He didn’t think of you in the past. Now that he’s in trouble, he remembered that you’re his son.”
“Look at what he’s done to you. I’d like to cut him into pieces. I’m not going to stop you. I’m here to help you.”
Su Xiaolu said fiercely. She was angry at such a detestable person.
Could he be forgiven after a few words of repentance and a few tears?
Although he and Little Niu were father and son, there was no affinity between them at all. What separated them was a blood feud.
There were two lives between them.
The first was Little Niu’s mother, and the second was the Master who raised Little Niu.
What had he done? He had easily hurt people. Now, with just a few words, he wanted to be forgiven so easily.
Su Xiaolu found it ridiculous.
Could it be that just because they were father and son, there was no need to repay the blood debt?
“It’s good that Senior Sister doesn’t stop me. I’ve been to many places with Master and seen too many ways of the world. I’ve always thought that I could be a good person like Master. My heart is filled with sympathy. No matter how difficult this path is, I can continue.”
Little Niu tied the rope tightly and his entire personality became very dark.
“However, I realized that nothing good will come of this path. If this path doesn’t work, I’ll change it. I’ll tie him up. After Master passes on, I’ll come and kill him. Master is still around, so I won’t taint him. After he goes, I’ll only be me.”
Little Niu calmly explained his plan. He did not hide it from Su Xiaolu.
“I’ve come to this place several times. If I tie him up here, no one will discover him. If Senior Sister wants to let him go, I can’t do anything. Senior Sister’s martial arts are advanced. There’s nothing she can’t do.”
After tying him up, Little Niu stood up and wiped his hands with a handkerchief, revealing a smile.
It was as if he had returned to being someone Su Xiaolu was familiar with.
But Su Xiaolu knew that he had not.
“I won’t let him go. No matter what Junior Brother becomes, perhaps we will become enemies when we meet again in the future. But now, before we meet again, you are the Junior Brother I acknowledge.”
Su Xiaolu looked at Little Niu’s empty eyes and said. The next time they met, she didn’t know what Little Niu would become, so she didn’t make any guarantees. But for now, Little Niu was still her acknowledged Junior Brother.
Su Xiaolu felt that she understood Elder Niu’s instructions. Su Xiaolu smiled. She felt that Elder Niu was overthinking. She would not stop Little Niu.
She would only give him the knife. Since he was unhappy, he should make himself happy.
If he couldn’t forgive him, he didn’t have to.
“Thank you, Senior Sister. It’s great to know you.”
Little Niu smiled and started to drag Father Xiao away.
Su Xiaolu was also helping. Su Xiaolu did not ask where Little Niu wanted to drag Father Xiao to.
Father Xiao woke up during this process and was instantly frightened. He did not expect Little Niu to do such a thing to him. When he saw Su Xiaolu, he was even more afraid. He was not stupid and understood everything after thinking about it.
He thought that he would shout, but he didn’t. After understanding it in his mind, he actually accepted it calmly. He didn’t shout. He asked calmly, “Child, what do you want to do? Are you going to kill me?”
“That’s right, I’m going to kill you. It’s just that it’s not the time yet. Three days later, it’ll be your death day.” Little Niu didn’t hide anything and told him directly.
