Parallel Lines of Rebirth

Chapter 169: It's a good time to kill people on a sunny day

Views:

Four boys walked side by side in front. The girl who came with Zhang Song was called Ye Meng. She didn't talk much and looked very quiet. She was a little uncomfortable with Xu Yao and the others. Liu Zhihe introduced her as a neighbor who grew up with Zhang Song. She was a good girl. This time when they came out for a visit, her parents specifically asked Zhang Song to help take care of her.

That's right, otherwise, with Zhang Song's current reputation, there shouldn't be any obedient and sensible girls who would get involved with him. This is not tolerance or discrimination, but in this era, the gap between poor students and good students cannot be crossed without the magical power of flying over eaves and walking on walls.

Liu Zhihe said, "This place is so deserted, what's fun here? Why don't we find a restaurant to have a big meal, then find a place to sleep and play cards? I got up too early today and I can't even open my eyelids."

Although he understood the fat man's lifestyle, Wen Liang couldn't help but said with disdain: "Life lies in exercise. If you are so lazy and gluttonous, you will be crushed to death by your fat body sooner or later. How about running with me every day?"

Liu Zhihe coughed, turned to look at Ren Yi, and said, "Did you hear that, kid? Get up early and run when you have nothing to do. Look at this fat body. You sway when you walk, but you don't feel cold at all!"

Ren Yi looked at Liu Zhihe's body, which was twice as plump as his, with resentment, and sighed, "Fat people in the world are all one family, we are from the same roots, why are you so anxious to criticize me? I do want to, but Boss Wen gets up at 6 o'clock every morning and stays up on weekends. I don't have the perseverance to do that even if you kill me."

Xu Yao, Ji Su and other acquaintances all knew about Wen Liang's training, but Zhang Song was very surprised: "No wonder Brother Wen is so good at it, his persistence alone is amazing!"

Wen Liang smiled without replying, turned around and walked backwards, saying: "Girls, do you want to find a place to have a picnic, or go to a restaurant to eat?"

The answer is obvious, unanimous vote passed the picnic plan. Today is a rare sunny day, and it is not cold to stay outside, especially for boys and girls aged 16 or 17. Autumn outings, picnics, bonfires, laughter and memories are the most important, and whether it is cold or not is not a problem at all. Everyone walked around Baiou Lake for a long time, and from time to time they met other groups of classmates along the way. Some were playing and joking, some were talking, and some students who had done their homework in advance were thinking about climbing Tianlou Mountain. There is a Pufang Temple on the mountain, which is said to be very popular.

Wen Liang led everyone to a clean place, took out the sky blue printed tablecloth that he had prepared earlier from his backpack, and spread it on the grass. Everyone sat on the ground and happily took out food from their backpacks. Most of the girls had a mess of small snacks, sunflower seeds, peanuts, sour plum powder, fruit danpi, big bubble gum, Golden Monkey milk candy, whistle mint candy, figs, dried sweet potatoes, mouse shit, gold coin-shaped chocolate, Bubuxing, Mimi shrimp strips, hawthorn slices, everything. Wen Liang brought all kinds of cakes, yogurt, drinks and mineral water, as well as fruits such as bananas and apples. Zhang Song brought several stewed dishes and cooked food. The most exaggerated one was Ren Yi, who wrapped a Guxian braised chicken in oil paper, and also had chicken gizzards, chicken feet, chicken necks, etc. He was a professional chicken farmer. Liu Zhihe was the most generous, bringing a bottle of fine red wine and a 125ML bottle of Maotai. Wen Liang took a look and knew that Liu Tianlai's butt was not clean just by looking at these two things. He picked up the Maotai and looked at it, then pulled Liu Zhihe aside and asked in a low voice, "Who was the unlucky one who gave this to your father?"

Liu Zhihe didn't understand, and said, "I don't remember, I received it a few days ago. It seems that a big bald guy committed some minor crime, so he sent me a whole box. He was very generous. I stole a bottle when my dad was not at home. Please don't sell me out."

Wen Liang snorted coldly and said, "Go back and tell your father that even small matters must be handled according to the law. This bald guy needs to be fixed! Bringing fake wine to fool the police chief, you are really brave!"

Liu Zhihe was dumbfounded and said, "No way, look at the bottle cap, the label, the packaging, and the red ribbon, it doesn't look fake. I have a big bottle at home, it's the same!"

"This is a knock-off product from Maotai Town... It's an imitation product. It seems to be from a Yupin winery, not a real one. I'm not sure about the wholesale price per bottle, but it won't be more than 20 yuan."

"Ah?" Liu Zhihe was completely furious. Just as he was about to run back to check, he was stopped by Wen Liang.

"Why rush? Don't spoil the fun when we're all playing together. Just think of it as Maotai. They all taste the same anyway, not much different."

Liu Zhihe nodded and said angrily: "MB, go back and find out who it is and make sure my dad can't kill him!"

The two of them then went back and sat down leisurely. Each of them was given a small paper cup. The girl drank red wine and the boy drank white wine. Meng Ke was a little scared and said, "It's not good to drink. What if you get drunk?"

Zhang Song and Ren Yi laughed at the same time and said sympathetically, "Don't worry, this small bottle is only 2.5 liang. Drink a little to refresh yourself. Even a mosquito won't get drunk... If anyone really gets drunk, I'll jump into the lake and catch fish for everyone."

Xu Yao clapped and cheered, then she leaned over and fell on Ning Xiaoning: "Ah, I'm drunk!"

Wen Liang smiled as he took out the last thing from his bag. It was a small paper box tied with a red ribbon. He said, "Eat this and I promise you won't get drunk!"

"Almond cakes from Silver House Street?"

Xu Yao immediately stopped pretending to be drunk. She knew from the packaging that it was the most famous Li Sao almond cake in Qingzhou. She quickly reached out to take it, licking her red lips with the tip of her tongue, looking like a greedy cat. But she couldn't untie the red ribbon on the lid. Wen Liang laughed loudly. This bitch had shamelessly tied a knot. Xu Yao glared at him angrily. If there weren't so many people, she would have rushed over and pressed him to the ground and beat him up!

Ning Xiaoning couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she took out a Swiss Army knife from somewhere and cut the strap with a light stroke. Wen Liang and Liu Zhihe looked at each other and didn't dare to speak.

Sister, as a girl, why do you carry a multipurpose knife with you? Even though it's small, it's still a knife!

The box was opened, and a few soft and golden almond crisps were lying at the bottom of the box, making everyone salivate. Xu Yao picked up a piece, took a bite, and praised, "Delicious!"

Ji Su sat silently, with a gentle smile on his face, as if he was completely unaware of the scene. Ning Xiaoning glanced at her, sighed inwardly, and said nothing. She was very worldly-wise, and if she really wanted to attack Ji Su, she had countless ways, but in the end she couldn't bear it.

Since Wen Liang dared to get a few girls together, he was sure that the atmosphere would not become awkward. He then took out two more boxes from his bag, handed one to Ji Su and one to Ren Yi, and said, "Everyone try it, it tastes very good."

Despite this foreshadowing, everyone knew that Wen Liang treated Xu Yao a little differently after all.

Drinking, guessing matches, playing games, guessing fingers, 15-20, open seven, hidden seven, rock-paper-scissors, tiger-pole-worm, all kinds of popular games were played in one meal. The strangeness between each other disappeared a lot. Xu Yao was naughty and cute, Ji Su was generous, Meng Ke was polite and sincere, and the newcomer Ye Meng was no longer shy at first and could talk to several girls. Only Ning Xiaoning's style remained the same. Except for talking to Xu Yao and being a little gentle to Wen Liang, the others always received cold eyes and short words, but occasionally one or two cold jokes would pop up, which made people stunned.

Five girls with very different personalities, with an Uncle Wen, a Ren Wenqing, a Godfather Liu, and a gangster Zhang. These nine people who should have nothing to do with each other, all gathered here because of Wen Liang and spent an unforgettable afternoon.

Things in the world are always so wonderful.

After having a good meal and a good drink, it was the most comfortable time at one or two o'clock in the afternoon. The warm sunlight projected on the body, making people lazy and not wanting to move at all. Wen Liang clapped his hands and said, "How about we play a game?"

Liu Zhihe simply lay down on the ground and said, "Don't tell me about the eagle catching the chick."

Ren Yi immediately seconded the proposal: "If I throw the handkerchief, I can't afford to lose that person!"

Zhang Song didn't dare to joke with Wen Liang, so he scratched his head and said, "How about playing poker..."

"cut!"

All the girls booed at the same time, including his neighbor's girl. This shows that it is easy to learn bad things but difficult to learn good things, and how powerful role models are.

Wen Liang smiled slightly: "I'll teach you something new, let's kill someone!"

Liu Zhihe sat up and asked excitedly, "Who are you going to deal with?"

The killing game has been popular in later generations. It requires comprehensive abilities such as eloquence, wisdom, skills, psychology, and analysis, and is loved by many people. In fact, it does not necessarily require much technical content. Luck is also a very important factor. It depends on one's own opinion.

But it is undeniable that this game is very suitable for playing with a large number of people, and it is not lacking in tension and excitement, and it has a first-class effect in mobilizing the atmosphere.

Wen Liang adopted version 1.0, with one judge, two killers, and six good guys. The rules were simple and easy to play. When everyone heard about this unprecedented game, they immediately became interested and excited. Wen Liang asked Zhang Song to take out a deck of cards, find a king, two spades, and six hearts, and draw cards in order. He also stipulated that no one was allowed to peek, and if caught, they would be thrown into the lake to fish.

Wen Liang drew a spade, pressed it on the ground, and said, "Please let the judge take a stand."

Ye Meng raised her hand timidly and smiled gently, "Okay, you will host it. In the first round, after the judge shouts "It's dark, please close your eyes", everyone closes their eyes. It's just a game, and the rules must be followed. Zhihe, I haven't talked to Uncle Liu for a long time."

What I mean now is, if you dare to cheat, I will talk to Liu Tianlai about your butt problem. Ever since he found out that this NB gambling godfather had no way to deal with his father, Wen Liang found a killer weapon to deal with him, which worked every time.

Liu Zhihe was particularly angry: "I despise three types of people the most: people who judge others by their appearance, people who are more handsome than me, and people who are thinner than me. There are so many people, why don't you trust me?"

Ren Yi exclaimed: "Brother Liu, what you said is really profound."

"It's dark, please close your eyes."

Wen Liang closed his eyes. After a while, he didn't hear the judge continue to speak. Suddenly, he noticed that the silence around him was abnormal. He opened his eyes and almost exploded with anger. A group of people were all winking and laughing. No one closed their eyes obediently. Ye Meng looked at Wen Liang at a loss, not knowing what to say. Xu Yao on the right even took a red ribbon from a box of almond cakes and tried to put it around Wen Liang's neck, but was caught by him. The girl smiled in a flattering way, quickly hid her hands behind her back, and said righteously: "Close your eyes, close your eyes, we are playing a game, be serious!"

Wen Liang pointed at the group of people, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Well, I accept that you guys have teamed up to play a trick on me. Be honest this time, or you will all be thrown into the lake to fish."

Everyone laughed, collected their thoughts, put on serious expressions, and signaled Ye Meng to start.

"Please close your eyes."

"Killer, please open your eyes. Good people, don't move."

Wen Liang opened his eyes and saw Xu Yao's dark eyes close to him, filled with a heart-pounding smile. The first time they partnered up to kill someone, it really had a bit of the flavor of a pair of thieves.

Wen Liang signaled Ye Meng with his eyes to kill Liu Zhihe first. This was almost inevitable. If Liu Zhihe was not a killer, he would definitely be the target of the first round.

Xu Yao agreed, Ye Meng nodded, and said, "Killer, please close your eyes. Okay, it's dawn, everyone please open your eyes."

When everyone opened their eyes, Ye Meng pointed at Liu Zhihe and said, "You're dead!"

Liu Zhihe wailed and began to make his last words: "Wen Liang must be the killer. He is the only one who would kill me first. Zhang Song wouldn't do that, and Ren Yi wouldn't do that. The female classmate has no grudge against me, so it must be Wen Liang!"

Xu Yao's heart trembled. She didn't expect Liu Zhihe to guess it right at once. Her right hand trembled, and she couldn't help but look at Wen Liang's face. But Wen Liang was not panicked, but angry as if he was wronged. He said, "Zhihe, do you think that with my IQ, I would make such an obvious mistake right at the beginning? If I were a killer, the first person I would kill would be Xu Yao, so that no one could guess me. Don't you think this is the truth?"

Ren Yi stroked his chin and said, "I don't think it's Wen Liang. He is so treacherous that he won't expose himself right away. On the contrary, Zhang Song is very suspicious. No one would have thought that he would kill his own boss, but he did it anyway."

Next to Ren Yi was Meng Ke, who frowned and said, "I think it's Xiao Ning. When Liu Zhihe mentioned Wen Liang just now, everyone looked at Wen Liang's expression, but she remained the only one who didn't change. This probably means that she knows that Wen Liang is not the one, and she is the one!"

I have to say that Meng Ke was the first person to grasp the essence of the killing game. Without any instructions, she knew how to observe other people's expressions and actions, and her brain worked very quickly.

Because her words made so much sense, and Wen Liang acted so well, Ji Su and Zhang Song all agreed that the killer was Ning Xiaoning. Xu Yao also calmed down and naturally followed suit to correct Ning Xiaoning. After all, the game is not fun if you talk about the depth of friendship.

From this perspective, Xu Yao’s shouting that we should play games more seriously just now does make sense!

Ning Xiaoning retorted, "I didn't look at him because I had already identified him as the one. The Art of War says to make the false appear real and the real appear false. You all think Wen Liang is cunning, but you don't think about the fact that he wants to kill Liu Zhihe first and then use words to lead you down another path."

Her words could not explain why she did not go to see Wen Liang, and they lacked persuasiveness. Wen Liang was laughing in his heart. In fact, if Ning Xiaoning said that I am just like this, I will not go to see anyone Liu Zhihe corrected, maybe it would be somewhat persuasive. He immediately decided to fish in troubled waters. Ning Xiaoning already had 4 votes, she was doomed, and he had to pave the way for the next round. He said, "I don't think Ning Xiaoning is like him. I also think it's Zhang Song, for the same reason as Ren Yi."

Ye Meng asked everyone to vote by raising their hands. Xu Yao, Ji Su, Meng Ke, and Zhang Song all agreed to vote for Ning Xiaoning. Ren Yi changed his mind at the last minute and also corrected Ning Xiaoning. Wen Liang, however, insisted on his own opinion and voted for Zhang Song.

5 votes! Ning Xiaoning was hacked to death on the spot!

When he turned over the card, it was a shining red heart! Wen Liang said angrily: "See, I said it should be Zhang Song..."

Meng Ke was very upset and felt extremely guilty. He reached out and held Ning Xiaoning's hand, saying, "It's all my fault. I made a wrong judgment."

Liu Zhihe and the others thought Ning Xiaoning would be angry, but she smiled, which was rare. She held Meng Ke's hand and comforted him, "It's okay. It's just a game. It's not a human to kill the wrong person..."

Wen Liang was about to drink some water when he choked. Why did this sound so harsh? He couldn't decide whether it was a satire on him. In this world, do beauties still let men live

Ye Meng announced that Ning Xiaoning was out. According to the rules, good people can have a last word. Ning Xiaoning said, "I still think it should be Wen Liang. There are three reasons. First, he behaved a little abnormally and was not calm enough. Second, he seemed to be deliberately disrupting the situation. Third, my personal feeling."

"Round 2, it's dark, please close your eyes!"

To be fair, the two dead people must also close their eyes. After Wen Liang and Xu Yao opened their eyes, Xu Yao was extremely excited. She was obviously fascinated by the excitement of this game. She raised her hand and pointed at Ren Yi. She was also a very smart person. From the fact that Wen Liang pointed out Zhang Song to defend Ning Xiaoning in the last game, she thought that he should continue to frame Zhang Song in this round, so that he could better hide his identity.

Because no killer would be stupid enough to frame someone as a killer in the last round and then kill him in the next round, leaving him as a target for others. This is the best option.

Wen Liang shook his head, rejected Xu Yao's suggestion, and signaled Ye Meng to kill Zhang Song this time.

When everyone opened their eyes, Ye Meng pointed at Zhang Song and said, "You're dead this time! What do you have to say?"

Zhang Song took a breath. His brain was a little slow, and he thought that he might as well die. He said, "I'm dizzy anyway, so I'll just let Ren Yi go. He just stole my chicken leg..."

This result obviously confused Meng Ke. She had already made up her mind that if it wasn't Zhang Song who died this time, she would firmly point out that Wen Liang was the murderer. The reason was the same as Xu Yao's. It was because of this that Wen Liang decided to kill Zhang Song. Meng Ke tilted her head and saw Ren Yi laughing secretly. She shouted happily and said, "Okay, I guessed it, it's Ren Yi! He pointed at Zhang Song first, then changed his mind and pointed at Ning Xiaoning. This time he killed Zhang Song again. He was wavering and confusing people. He was deliberately making trouble. He is a killer."

Ren Yi cried out: "You... you are not a good person just because you snatch the chicken leg? I am not a good person just because I smile?"

Ji Su pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "I think it's Xu Yao! She is such a smart person and has always been very opinionated. But this time, she didn't express her opinions much. She followed up on what others said immediately. There is something wrong!"

Xu Yao smiled and said, "Oh, Susu, you have to believe me, it really wasn't me."

Wen Liang was speechless. You're killing someone, can you please stop playing around
