"Dead."
"Dead?"
"The murder weapon was a kitchen knife. It seems that he committed suicide."
Greenery carefully examined the murder scene and made a judgment.
A kitchen knife in a pool of blood was picked up by Greenery's slender fingers, and the tip of the knife was pointed at the gatekeeper's neck.
From this angle, it was not difficult to reconstruct the scene of the gatekeeper's suicide.
It could be seen that the gatekeeper was not a professional killer, and his knife skills were very rusty. So, when he committed suicide, he used so much force that his neck was almost cut off.
"Rookie!"
Greenery despised such a clumsy method.
But it was not the gatekeeper's fault.
Because the gatekeeper was not a killer, he had no experience in killing people or committing suicide. So, he did not have the ability to slit the throat, and could only try his best to end his own life.
His knife skills were not good, but he could do nothing about it. He was just an ordinary person.
Lv Yin threw away the kitchen knife and kicked the gatekeeper's corpse. The head on the corpse swayed and separated from the corpse's neck, rolling to Crystal's side.
"Gee!"
Crystal jumped away in disgust. Her beautiful legs were exposed under her short skirt.
"That's disgusting."
Crystal fanned her nose with her hand and stepped back in disgust. Her plump breasts kept trembling.
Greenery shook her black hair and stuck out her chest, which was slightly smaller than Crystal's. She tilted her head and said, "Baby, are you scared?"
Greenery's voice was very soft.
"Yes." Crystal said coquettishly.
"Good girl, don't be afraid."
Greenery held Crystal in her arms.
At a murder scene, two beautiful women were kissing passionately, with dead bodies lying next to them. It was really a beautiful and touching scene.
This scene was enough to show that the relationship between the two beautiful women was unusual.
Crystal and Greenery worked for the Mercury Savior and the Jupiter Supreme respectively. They were responsible for killing Qin Qianxue.
Their spies tracked the gatekeeper last evening and observed the whole process of the gatekeeper entering and leaving the Frostless Hut.
"An old man with the ability to enter and exit the Frostless Hut. Moreover, he is a mortal with one foot in the grave and has no offensive capabilities."
This was the intelligence report from last night.
Therefore, early this morning, Crystal and Greenery came to the scene in person, ready to threaten the gatekeeper to open the Frostless Cottage and catch Qin Qianxue and her gang.
Unfortunately, they were still a step too late.
The Gatekeeper is dead.
It was suicide.
The only person who could open the Frostless Hut from the outside was dead.
Of course, Master Wu Shuang could.
However, Crystal and Greenery couldn't go to Yiluo Prefecture and ask Master Wushuang for advice, could they?
At that time, how would Crystal and Greenery explain it to Master Wushuang?
They said, "Hello, respected Master Frostless, we would like to ask you to open the Frostless Hut of your sect and let us in to kill someone …"
It was not hard to imagine how low the success rate of such a request was.
At the very least, trying the password of the Frostless Hut at random would have a higher success rate.
Now, Crystal and Greenery were entangled together, and something indescribable had happened.
Greenery was slightly taller than Crystal, and her hands were wrapped around Crystal's back, while Crystal was trying hard to hold Greenery's head, her white fingers sinking into Greenery's long hair.
"Wait," Crystal gasped and pushed Greenery away, "Here?"
Greenery turned her head to look at the corpse on the ground and said with a smile, "Isn't this place good?
Isn't it exciting? "
As she spoke, Greenery's fingers moved slightly.
The gatekeeper's body slowly floated into the air and gradually ignited into flames. The fire was not big, just enough to cover the whole body.
In just five seconds, the gatekeeper's body was burned to ashes.
The ashes fell, and the ground was snow-white.
At this time, Crystal and Greenery had begun to do something shameful. Wonderful and strange sounds kept drifting through the gatekeeper's house to the surrounding mountains.
…
…
"Five hundred years ago, did your ancestor guard here?" Qin Qianxue asked the gatekeeper who was leading the way.
The gatekeeper answered, but didn't look back.
Qin Qianxue could feel from the gatekeeper's back that he had a story.
"Here it is."
The gatekeeper stopped in front of a huge, palace-like building.
"In front of us is the main building of the Frostless Cottage. Everything inside is intact, just like five hundred years ago."
As soon as the words came out, strong confidence and pride came over her.
Qin Qianxue believed in the gatekeeper's words. That "intact" was probably the gatekeeper's masterpiece.
Qin Qianxue suddenly felt that the gatekeeper's stooped body became straight and unusually tall.
He was a hero.
Qin Qianxue thought.
"Beginner, bring Little Kong in." Jameson Sauce opened the door of a luxurious room and shouted.
"My task is done, and I've returned it." The gatekeeper was about to leave.
"Thank you very much." Jameson Sauce said.
The gatekeeper nodded with a smile.
"Wait a minute!"
Qin Qianxue stopped the gatekeeper.
After putting down the Holy Moon, Qin Qianxue ran out of the room and ran to the gatekeeper.
"Anything else?"
Qin Qianxue said solemnly, "You are a hero."
Hero!
The gatekeeper was stunned. She was the first person who had the same idea as him.
The gatekeeper held Qin Qianxue's hand tightly, with tears in his eyes.
"Thank you!
I'm glad someone thinks so. "
"It's my honor to meet you.
My name is Qin Qianxue. If there's anything I can do for you in the future, just tell me. I'll do my best. "
The gatekeeper's tears quickly flowed down his cheeks to his lips, and then to his chin. The two shining tear stains were like the Xiang River and the Li River connecting the spiritual canal.
"Tell me your name, my friend.
Let me be a hero. "
"I've never had a friend in my life. But now, you're my friend.
I don't have a name. You can call me Daozi. "
"Brother Daozi, I'll see you off."
Qin Qianxue walked the gatekeeper all the way to the border of the Frostless Hut.
The gatekeeper was in a good mood.
This was the brightest moment of his life.
He led Yan Liu's disciples into the Frostless Hut. He was called a hero for the first time. He made his first friend.
He didn't think that someone would be proud to know him.
That was enough.
This was the most fulfilling day of his life.
He felt that he had realized his value.
When he stepped out of the Frostless Hut, his mood became calm. He let go of everything.
Returning to his room, the gatekeeper didn't turn on the light.
This was his world. Even without light, everything was still visible.
He knelt down in front of the ancestral tablets and said: "Ancestral, father, I did it.
I didn't disappoint you! "
In the darkness, he seemed to have returned to his childhood, the four or five-year-old boy.
"Come, what's your name?"
A pair of big hands reached out to him, pulling him back from his hunger into the warm room.
He wolfed down the food.
Under the light, that person's face was very kind and kind.
He was picked up by his father.
He was his father's adopted son.
But that person would always be his father.
"You don't have a name, just call yourself Daozi" the gatekeeper's father said. "With Daozi, when the rice is harvested, you won't have to go hungry."
From then on, the gatekeeper was called Daozi.
"Daozi, are you hungry?"
"Daozi, are you thirsty?"
"Daozi, rest for a while."
"Daozi, …"
…
The gatekeeper smiled in the darkness. He was smiling happily.
That was a good time.
He accompanied his father to plant rice, irrigate, harvest …
In the corner, there were two scythes, one big and one small, polished until they shone.
In the beginning, his father used the big scythe, while he used the small scythe.
Later on, he used the big scythe, while his father used the small scythe.
He loved running in the rice paddy.
When he harvested, he felt a sense of accomplishment when he was surrounded by golden ears of rice.
This was the rice that he and his father grew together.
His father didn't have any goals, but he always looked into the distance.
This made him feel that his father was a person who could do great things.
He wanted to become a person like his father.
He gradually became stronger, while his father gradually became weaker.
Five years later, he carried all the harvested rice back by himself.
It was already very difficult for his father to carry it.
One day, his father called him to his side.
"Daozi, you are already a man.
It is time to make a choice. "
He was confused.
"Before you make your choice, I want you to swear that if you accept my mission, you will guard this place forever. Furthermore, you can't tell anyone other than yourself about this.
This is a secret that cannot be spoken of. "
He nodded.
"Otherwise, not only will it bring disaster to you, it will bring disaster to even more people!"
"I swear to keep this secret forever.
I swear on this cleaver! "He picked up the cleaver at home and placed it in front of his neck.
His father's tears flowed down his face. He knew Daozi's character very well. This child would do what he said.
Since he was willing to say this, it proved that he was a trustworthy candidate.
Daozi didn't know why his father said this, but he knew that this secret must be very important to his father.
His father's secret was his secret!
His home was here, how could he leave?
His home was here, he wouldn't go anywhere else!
His father brought him to the Frostless Hut.
It was the first time Daozi went to the Frostless Hut.
It was the first time he started to walk the path that he had walked for his entire life.
He didn't know that his father actually had such a large 'property', but he was still living in poverty.
He verified his guess. His father was really doing something big.
He finally understood that behind his father's obscurity, there was actually such a shocking mission.
"This is the work of Master Frostless.
The mission of us gatekeepers is to watch over this place and wait for Yan Liu's refugees.
The ancestors and I are not related by blood.
Many gatekeepers have sacrificed their lives for this, and only a few have survived.
This is an extremely dangerous mission. Are you afraid, Daozi? "
"I'm not afraid!"
"Very good. You are my pride.
As long as a person is alive, he must do something meaningful.
Daozi, you can do it. "
A few days later, his father passed away.
"Has the Frostless Period of the spiritual canal passed?"
"The Frostless Period of the spiritual canal has always been there."
This pair of secret words was the last thing his father left him.
He had to wait for someone or a group of people that he didn't want to come.
In accordance with his father's last wish, he buried his father in the rice field.
The place where he could see the observation platform.
Almost every day, he would come and talk to his father.
He didn't have any feelings for his ancestors, but his father made him who he was.
It was only right and proper for him to repay his father.
Here, this was a place that the world left for him. How could he give it up?
Every time he harvested, he brought the two sickles with him. This way, his father would always be by his side.
Although the small sickles were no longer suitable for him, he always had to use the small sickles to harvest a row of rice in the end.
He lived his life step by step, endured hardships that ordinary people couldn't bear, and carried a huge secret.
He never married in his life.
Because he didn't want to drag his other half into this invisible cage.
Of course, he also wanted to keep this secret that couldn't be told.
Freedom was too precious.
Losing freedom was extremely painful, but when he thought of the sacred mission, he felt happy.
His mission was very important, and his mission was very noble.
…
A hundred years of loneliness was like a snap of the fingers.
The gatekeeper thought of Qin Qianxue.
His first friend in his life.
"Father, I have a friend. He said that I'm a hero." The gatekeeper said happily, "I think so too.
Because I'm the same as you. "
The gatekeeper's face lit up with a smile that lit up his world.
"Dao" was his name, and it would always be his name.
Dao bowed piously, his forehead touching the ground.
His mission was completed.
He would never tell this secret that couldn't be told!
He knew how powerful the opponent he was going to face was, but he was determined not to give in!
He was just an ordinary person.
And his opponent would be God!
Even so, his faith couldn't be shaken!
He promised his father that he loved this land, and he would never betray it!
The kitchen knife was already worn thin, but the promise was still powerful.
"I swear to keep this secret forever.
I swear on this kitchen knife! "
Dao raised his head, straightened his chest, and held the knife tightly.
The knife flashed.
