Chapter 0007 - Killing the Wrong Man

　　"Gulp ......" 　　On the stovetop, a large pot, was bubbling with hot air, only to see the meat pieces in the pot, in the soup tumbling, constantly up and down, the soup in the pot took on a creamy white color like mutton fat. 　　An unusual aroma, in the air filled, the pot also put a bowl, there is a good match with the small ingredients as well as chopped green onions, just waiting for the soup to the inside of a steep, that taste, think about it is unbearable. 　　However, whether it is Chen Jing, or Qi Liang, and even Zhao Ke, three people have no appetite, Qi Liang and Chen Jing two people sitting on the ground tied with hemp rope, their mouths were tied up by the cloth, can not make a sound. 　　Qi Liang's thigh, a bloody mouth is very visible bone, sitting there, a drop of bean-sized cold sweat on the forehead straight up, the face is pale and scary. 　　As for Zhao Ke, was lying on the ground, hands behind his back, similarly tied solidly by the twine, his back was drenched in blood, looking a bloody mess, the blood had already infiltrated that shirt on his body. 　　"Oooh ......" 　　Chen Jing took her foot and kicked Zhao Ke, her pair of big eyes blinking towards Zhao Ke, seemingly inquiring just how long this was going to take. 　　She then looked at the injury on Qi Liang's leg, and even though Zhao Ke had assured him that his wound wasn't fatal, looking at the blood dripping, Chen Jing couldn't help but sweat for Qi Liang in her heart. 　　Zhao Ke read Chen Jing's meaning, shaking his head, he closed his eyes, he knew best what he had done, he didn't even need to look, just by the feeling of the blade piercing through the flesh and blood, he knew what kind of wound it was, already avoiding the vitals and bones, such an injury, going back for a little bit of treatment would be fine, there was no need to worry about it at all. 　　"Bang!" 　　At this time, Zhao Ke's eyes opened and he whispered, "Coming!" 　　The sound of footsteps outside the door was getting closer and closer, each step was particularly heavy, as if the soles of his feet were stuffed with stones. 　　"Buzz ......" 　　The door to the room was pushed, because of the perspective, Zhao Ke could only see one foot step in first, barefoot, with a layer of scarlet silt still stuck to the bottom of his foot, walking, Zhao Ke could smell the strong smell of blood. 　　At the same time, the remaining light flew in the other party's foot surface a sweep, the joints of those feet are very thick, the foot visual estimate at least in 47 yards, than the ordinary adult's feet are much larger. 　　"Wooooooooo......" 　　At this time, I don't know what exactly Qi Liang and Chen Jing saw, only to see their complexion change, Qi Liang's eyes glazed over, and a look of horror passed through his eyes. 　　In front of the big feet step towards Zhao Ke this side, only to hear "bam ......" sound, do not know what was thrown heavily on the table. 　　Zhao Ke lying on the ground did not move, not long, feel the head above the cool, as if there is something is flowing down the top, dripping on his neck, sticky uncomfortable, but also with a strong smell of blood. 　　Zhao Ke angled his neck and took a sideways look, two broken hands, were thrown on the table, blood was dripping down the broken hands continuously. 　　"It's her!" 　　Zhao Ke's heart was shocked, this broken hand can be seen as a woman's hand, not someone else, it is the broken hand of the female white-collar worker who was thrown into the bushes by himself, Zhao Ke remembered that her nails were deliberately dyed pink, and wrapped with diamonds, there is no mistake about it. 　　Another look, there is a broken hand, but look at the broken hand of the hand bone is very thick, does not seem to be a white-collar woman's palm, but more like a man's hand. 　　At this time, the big man narrowed his eyes, will gaze on the lower ground Zhao Ke three people, rough face, flowed out of confusion and boredom, that pair of triangular eyes in the Zhao Ke three people carefully some measure, with suspicion, the waist of the axe thrown on the table, and then looked at the side of the big iron pot. 　　With a sweep of his eyes, he was seeing the cauldron on the stovetop, and a strong aroma was bubbling out of the soup that was already churning inside. 　　The big man stepped in front of the pot, and after glancing at the seasonings in the bowl next to the pot, the caracal light in his eyes gradually eased up. 　　Taking up a soup spoon to serve the meat in the pot, and finally pouring a spoonful of soup, the red and white meat, undulating in the soup sprinkled with scallions, made the big man couldn't help but swallow his mouth coated, and couldn't wait to hold the bowl and eat it with a big mouthful of food. 　　"Prickly prickly ......" 　　In the large house, there was only the loud sound of the big man eating alone, the three of them were on the floor, they couldn't see the scene on the table, but listening to the sound, they also knew that at this moment, this big man seemed to be joyful about the soup of meat that Zhao Ke had hurriedly boiled up, and he seemed to be eating it with joy. 　　A bowl of soup meat down, seems to be not very addictive, the big man stood up and ready to get another bowl. 　　Seeing this aside Qi Liang couldn't help but quietly kick Zhao Ke's feet, constantly squeezing his eyes towards Zhao Ke, signaling how it hasn't worked yet. 　　Zhao Ke shook his head, meaning for Qi Liang to take it easy. 　　Although he didn't know what kind of medicine the old lady had put in the kettle, but when he smelled the odor of the medicine, he felt slightly dizzy, Zhao Ke deduced that the strength of the medicine should be very strong. 　　Before Li Hongbing must have drunk the old lady drugged water, fainted, before being defenseless, by the old lady was dismantled. 　　Having added a whole pot by himself, the force would definitely not be small. 　　"Bam!" 　　Just as Zhao Ke was wondering why the big man didn't fall down, the bowl in the big man's hand suddenly slipped and fell down, his body stumbled forward without taking two steps, and then he fell head over heels on the ground with a "thud". 　　"It's done!" 　　Zhao Ke three people saw the situation, their hearts were happy, only to see Chen Jing and Qi Liang two people body a struggle, quickly break free from the body of the hemp rope, their body of the hemp rope are tied, a little struggle can break free. 　　Zhao Ke also climbed up from the ground, picked up the fruit knife in his hand and walked to the side of the middle-aged man, only to see the big man lying on the ground, huffing and puffing is fragrant, I have to say that the old lady's drug effect is not generally strong, it looks like Li Hongbing's death is not wrong. 　　"So simple!" 　　Qi Liang was a bit in disbelief, according to their previous speculation, this Xiong Er was most likely the bear that was chasing them before, he didn't think that such a simple little trick would actually succeed. 　　As soon as he thought of this, Qi Liang couldn't help but feel a bit indignant, "Grass, if I had known that it was so easy, why would I still want to zap me." The more Qi Liang thought about it, the more worthless he felt. 　　Regarding Qi Liang's accusation, Zhao Ke didn't bother to explain in that much detail, but Chen Jing on the side knew very well that from every step the other party took to step into the room, he had already entered Zhao Ke's well-designed trap. 　　The wounded prey, still bound in front of himself, the aroma that filled the cauldron, the boiling broth, including the small ingredients that had been poured in the bowl, everything was full of innuendo as if they were waiting for their master to return. 　　A hungry master returning, seeing the situation would mentally relax, most people would choose to eat a full meal before dealing with the prey in front of them, of course, Zhao Ke dared to do so, in fact, there was another reason. 　　Freshness! Here even the lighting has to rely on an oil lamp, electric lights are not available, not to mention the refrigerator, so freshness is a very serious problem, and then did not eat the food in the pot before, Zhao Ke concluded that they subconsciously will choose to retain the life of the prey, and can not run away anyway, it is better to keep it and wait for the food to be eaten and then killed. 　　Of course the risk is also there, in case he meets a psychopath who doesn't intend to eat first, but to finish them off first, then Zhao Ke can only recognize his own bad luck, and in the spirit of the principle of dying a friend of the road, decisively climbed up to run for his life. 　　This was the reason why he zapped Qi Liang's thigh instead of simply stabbing him to death. 　　Looking at the big man who fell to the ground, aside Qi Liang and Chen Jing couldn't help but feel a fluky feeling in their hearts, this big man's physique, strong as an ox, was half a head taller than Qi Liang. 　　The arm is about to catch up with Chen Jing's thighs, really if you start to fight, not to mention will turn into a bear, even if not, the three of them are not enough for each other to stuff their teeth. 　　Zhao Ke lifted the fruit knife, coldly walked to the front of the big man, the blade of the knife was aimed at the big man's throat, and quickly wiped it! 　　"Puff ......" 　　Blood puffed and splashed out down his throat, the big man's body trembled as if he had regained a bit of consciousness, his eyes opened to look at Zhao Ke's trio with complex eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but soon the ray of light dimmed down. 　　"YSI! The mission is accomplished! Now we can go back." 　　For some reason, seeing the scene of blood spurting from the big man's throat, instead of feeling cruelty as she had in the past, Chen Jing felt a sense of relief, even relief. 　　Not only her, even Qi Liang on the side couldn't help but relax his heart, just one day and one night had given him the feeling that it was like experiencing a nightmare that he couldn't wake up from, now he just wanted to wake up quickly. 　　"No!" 　　Only the heartstrings in their hearts that had just relaxed, had not yet waited to completely calm down, a cold cry interrupted the thoughts in their hearts. 　　Qi Liang looked up, and when he saw Zhao Ke's cold expression, his heart suddenly jolted, only to see Zhao Ke's eyes staring at the big man's corpse, a face that was gloomy and frightening. 　　"What's wrong?" 　　"He ...... is not Xiong Er!" 　　Zhao Ke pointed at the corpse on the ground and continued, "If he is Xiong Er, then the corpse should have turned into a dog and bear by now just like the old lady, besides, we didn't get any notification of the completion of the mission, right?" 　　Chen Jing and Qi Liang froze, staring dumbfounded at the corpse on the ground, and then their whole body couldn't help but shiver, a coolness crawling up their spine, cold from head to the bottom of their feet. 　　"Damn it, how could he not be Xiong Er! Isn't this a wasted effort?" 　　Qi Liang was a little unable to accept this fact, after wasting so much effort, he didn't expect that the one who messed up was actually not Xiong Er, then where is the real Xiong Er? 　　Zhao Ke squatted down, in the big man's body rummage up, from the big man's arms to touch a crumpled map, through the oil lamp to take a closer look, the map is hand-drawn, it is very clear, seems to be this area, a corner of the top with a red pen to draw a circle. 　　Continuing to rummage, one after another found a dagger, as well as some dry food and a bottle. 　　After opening the bottle, a very special smell seeped out from the bottle, and upon closer inspection, it was some powder of a very special color. 　　Zhao Ke gently placed it on the tip of his nose and sniffed a few times, the smell was very much like some kind of pollen, not pungent, but not good either, other than that, he didn't feel any difference. 　　"Did you find anything?" 　　Chen Jing walked up, wanting to see what things Zhao Ke had found, Zhao Ke was very dry, placing everything on the table on, saying, "That's all." 　　As he spoke, Zhao Ke handed his fruit knife to Chen Jing, and replaced himself with the heavy black dagger. 　　Fingers pinched on the blade of the dagger, the ebony blade refracted a strange cold light under the oil lamp, and a dark groove on the back of the blade, which was permeated with a demonic red light. 　　"Two feet long, three fingers wide, weighing eight taels and three coins, good knife!" 　　The so-called connoisseur a shot, will know there is no, perennial contact blade, for the blade, Zhao Ke has been more than familiar with, in front of the body of the black dagger, seemingly inconspicuous, but is definitely a murderous weapon. 　　However, what makes Zhao Ke feel dissatisfied is that the previous owner of this knife, does not seem to like to clean it, the blood in the blood groove has completely solidified in it, resulting in a pungent smell of blood on this dagger, the nose a little bit better people can smell it. 　　"What a waste of this good thing." Sweeping his eyes obliquely towards the corpse on the ground, Zhao Ke skimmed his lips, silently feeling sorry for this dagger in his heart. 　　"What now?" 　　Qi Liang looked at the body of the big man on the ground and couldn't help but feel a bit chagrined, muttering to himself, "Since this guy isn't Xiong Er, why didn't he let go of us first, and what's with the two pairs of severed hands on the table? Really ......" 　　Qi Liang said halfway, subconsciously raised his head and looked at the window behind him, and his voice could not help but lurch, only to see that outside the window, a pair of big scarlet eyes were coldly staring at him!
