The sky in Puyang City was gloomy.
Well, of course it was gloomy in the evening. Which place wasn't like that? --- Li Jing was lying on the roof of the General's Mansion, sighing incoherently.
Recently, he had been particularly fond of going to the rooftops. He was either standing, lying down, or half-lying down. This had become a habit. If he kept going, he might even step on all the higher rooftops of Qin Shi's building.
He took out a hand from the back of his head and raised it to the gloomy sky. His gaze followed the gap between his fingers.
This distance didn't feel that far, as if it was within reach, but how far was it actually? In reality, the distance was really despairing. If one did not stand at the end of the universe, it was impossible to touch it.
When people faced the vast world, they would often realize how small they were, and even he was no exception.
Living in Qin Shi's world was indeed thrilling, but what was lacking was a sense of control.
Not strong enough! It was still not strong enough!
Even with his current martial strength, he had already reached the forefront of Qin Shi and was no longer a small fry that could be slaughtered by others.
There was no limit to human desires. After obtaining this, one would want to obtain that. They would constantly want more and more. When they could not stuff it in, they would want to stuff it in. They would not want to spit it out even if they were stuffed to death.
Ambition was something that had never been lacking since ancient times. Almost every human existence had ambition.
And what was his ambition? Was it a sword legend? Hehe, it was not the same anymore. Unknowingly, his gaze had already set higher and further, so high that even he himself felt a little incredulous and amazed by his own ambition.
If one's life did not stop, one's desires would not be satisfied.
I will use the rest of my life to make it grand and spectacular, to an unprecedented level!
"Ahaha, when did this happen? I'm already in my twenties.”Li Jing silently laughed at his own inexplicable thoughts.
He was just like that. When he had a little free time, he liked to let his imagination run wild. The world was too vast and had too many secrets. There were countless things that interested him. He believed that the future would not be empty and boring.
Looking at his hands, his gaze connected to the sky. He would touch every corner of this vast sky with his hands, and the earth would let him measure it step by step with his feet.
Wandering the world, in the name of swordsman,
After looking at the sky for a long time, one would want to close their eyes, not to sleep, but to listen.
What the eyes couldn't see, perhaps they could 'see' it with their ears. Li Jing could vaguely hear angry roars, sorrowful cries, despair, and sinister laughter. There were all kinds of voices, men and women, adults and children, old and young. These were all the melodies of ordinary people in war.
It confirmed the saying he had heard somewhere: Being weak was a sin!
If they were guilty, they had to atone for their sins. They were all paying for their sins until the moment they died. Their sins would be paid off.
He also thought of his own sins. Since he left Phantom Valley, the number of people who had died in his hands, even if not thousands, were at least hundreds. Those who took the initiative to find him, or those who he found, wanted to be stained with blood, so he killed them.
He didn't seem to think as much about killing as the average person. He would kill if he was happy, and he would kill if he was unhappy. When he was bored, he would swing his sword wantonly. Seeing red splattering was also a form of pleasure.
Being weak was a crime, and killing people should also be a crime.
He had already killed so many people. What was the punishment waiting for him?
If there really is a god who punishes evil and rewards good, please satisfy my curiosity. If he knew, he would definitely roast a chicken and duck with both hands, and there would be good wine to drink.
As he was thinking about entertaining himself, Li Jing suddenly felt movement not far away. He opened his eyes and tilted his head.
He saw a lively girl climbing onto the roof.
In the evening, the red light illuminated the city that was mired in war. It was both glorious and old. In this glorious twilight, Liji walked out, this femme fatale.
Compared to the other beauties of Qin Shi, Li Jing liked Li Ji very much. However, it was undeniable that the beauty that this woman inadvertently revealed was truly heart-wrenching.
Tilting his head, he was still lying down, admiring this beauty from a bottom-up angle.
The angle made him see something he shouldn't have seen. Even if Li Ji was wearing conservative clothes, conservative clothes couldn't be airtight.
She was shy, so she wanted to cover her face. However, her face would not turn red, so there was no point in covering it. Moreover, she could not bear to cover her eyes.
Being conflicted was not his style, so he could only pretend to be calm.
"Hey, bad guy, it's time to go down and eat. There's a good room, but you didn't go.”Li Ji walked up to him, put her hands on her hips, bent over, and called out softly, mixed with a few words of complaint.
"I'm not a bad guy, I'm Li Jing, a swordsman who roams the world.”Li Jing said,
Because he was closer, he saw more beautiful scenery. Sometimes, it was troublesome to have too good eyesight. It was not a big deal to look. She looked indifferent. For a disease like shyness, she had to give up on treatment. It was fine as long as she didn't care. The more she cared, the more troublesome it would be.
Li Ji walked around him and mumbled,""Do you look like a swordsman? Other than the two swords, he looked like a rich young master who had run away from home. He was dressed so cleanly and luxuriously.”
When she turned around, Li Jing saw everything. He suspected that his nose was about to bleed.
Holding back his anger, he retorted," Who said that swordsmen can't be like this? I look like this. A few years ago, I was living on the streets and almost starved to death. Since you have the ability to dress cleanly and luxuriously, why don't you dress cleanly and luxuriously? Why do I feel that your idea is very strange?"”
"Don't say that I'm strange."
"At that time, you said that I was strange. Why didn't you allow me to say it?”
"You're not allowed to say it."
"Alright, alright. You look about the same age as me. Why are you acting like a child? How embarrassing.”
"You're the child. You're clearly young, but why are you pretending to be mature? Instead, you look childish.”
"I'm not talking to you anymore. Go down and eat. Women, especially beautiful women, are hard to understand.”
"A bad person is a bad person. You always like to bully others. What beautiful woman is hard to understand? It's your problem to begin with.”
Li Jing was numb to the bickering. He didn't continue listening to Li Ji's nagging. He jumped off the roof and went to the main hall of the General's Mansion. There were only a few people there. Gongsun Yu and Jing Ke were not there.
Puyang City probably could not hold on for much longer.
