Chapter 618 Cheng Nan
Chapter 618 Cheng Nan
He once heard a saying from an old man that if one's body is incomplete after death, or if one dies in vain and cannot be reincarnated after death, then one can only be a lonely ghost for generations to come.
As a Deadpool, whose life and death are in the hands of those in power, he no longer hopes for a good death and only wishes for an afterlife.
In his next life, he would never go down this path. Even if he became a beggar, even if he had to toil for food and clothing all his life, he didn't care. He was tired of the days of living on the edge of a knife and just wanted everything to return to normal.
"I promise you."
Taking out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve, Lu Beichen took out a black pill and stuffed it into the secret guard's mouth, then pinched the other's jaw until the pill was swallowed.
This action was completed in an instant, leaving him no chance to react, and the pill melted in his mouth.
“Cough!… Ugh…”
"You...what did you give me to eat?" The secret guard's face was full of horror.
"It's nothing, just a pill that will make you obedient. This pill won't take effect until a month later. If you don't have the antidote, you'll be in agony from the gnats."
The secret guard smiled bitterly. "Even if you didn't do it, I wouldn't be able to survive. From the moment we joined the organization, we were fed a kind of poison. Life and death no longer belong to ourselves. If we betrayed you, the end would be very miserable. So, adding another poison to you doesn't matter."
"Well, as long as you take me into your lair, I will give you a decent death and won't let you suffer too much. Of course, the premise is that you don't play tricks. You should be aware of my methods."
"Don't worry, I hate this organization. If you can eradicate it, it would be a great blessing."
Untying the chains that bound him, her eyes showed no warmth or fear: "Let's go now..."
The reason why the secret guards don't know where the lair is is that every time they enter, their eyes are covered with black cloth, and the masks will not be removed until they are sent in. The interior is heavily guarded, like a dark cage. Even if they enter, the lowest-level deadpools like them can only move around the periphery. The inside is like an iron barrel. Anyone who dares to cross the line will not be able to die even if they have ten lives.
After nightfall, he brought Lu Beichen to a forest. The secret guards had three types of flares hidden on their bodies. One was yellow, which could be used to gather companions in a short time. One was red, indicating that if there was danger, please provide timely support. The last one was green, which proved that you had discovered something and needed to see the adults. You only had to wait for the other party to respond by firing a flare.
The green flare was lit and launched into the sky. The secret guard sat down on the ground and looked at the sky blankly. "I don't know if I will become a star in the sky after I die. Those stars are so free. Nothing can restrain them."
"Ever since I became Deadpool, even my name has been taken away. Perhaps even if I suddenly disappeared from this world, no one would remember me. My codename among the Dark Guards is Zero Nine. After receiving this codename, I became an out-and-out killing machine. I had to obey the order to kill someone, otherwise it would be either him (her) or me who would die. If I disobeyed the order, they would make me live a life worse than death. I still remember my first mission. Because of my compassion, I spared a little boy during the massacre. As a result, I was almost beaten to death. It took me a full month to recover..."
I don't know why, but he talked a lot today. Maybe he was really afraid that no one would know about his death, so he wanted to find a stranger to talk to, so that at least he could be remembered.
"What's your name?" Lu Beichen asked suddenly.
The secret guard was suddenly stunned. He almost thought he had misheard and stared blankly at the man not far away from him.
"Aren't you worried that no one will remember you?" Lu Beichen asked back.
"I... my name is Lingjiu... not... my previous name was Cheng Nan... As for Lingjiu, it's my code name." Cheng Nan said nervously. This was the first time he had told someone his name in more than ten years. He was afraid that he would forget this name in the long river of time. Gradually, he formed a habit of writing it down every day to prevent himself from forgetting it.
"Well, I'll remember that."
Just one sentence made Cheng Nan stunned. He didn't expect that the person who had been friendly to him for many years was actually his enemy. Things in the world are really unpredictable.
"What is that?" Lu Beichen asked, pointing in a direction.
I saw colorful smoke rising in the direction Lu Beichen pointed.
Cheng Nan came back to his senses and looked in the direction of his finger, then stood up excitedly: "It's the organization's response signal, asking me to go to Yueying Tower, there will be someone there to pick me up."
"How do you know it's Yueying Tower?"
"The flares in our hands are very special. Each color represents a different word." Cheng Nan explained. He didn't know what was going on. They were clearly enemies and he was now their prisoner, but he always subconsciously answered his questions.
After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Moon Shadow Tower is our organization's underground property. On the surface, it's a place for debauchery, but in reality, it's a contact point for the secret guards. I'm just a little surprised because I shouldn't have been qualified to enter Moon Shadow Tower."
"The Moon Shadow Tower is different from other secret services. There are powerful people there. You better hide yourself." He just finished speaking before reacting and adding shyly, "Hey! I'm not worried about your safety. If anything happens to you, I'll be doomed too. That's all. They are ruthless killing machines with no emotions. If they find us, we'll both be dead."
"Okay, I understand. I will catch up with you in my own way."
Although I don’t know what methods the person in front of me has, the fact that he can easily knock him out and take him away is enough to prove that he is not simple.
An hour later, Cheng Nan arrived at Yueying Tower. Although it was night, the building was brightly lit and noisy.
Cheng Nan went directly to the agreed guest room and knocked three times on the door, two long and one short.
"Come in..." An old man's voice came from inside, coughing from time to time.
Without hesitation, Cheng Nan pushed the door open and walked in.
He stepped forward and saluted the old man respectfully: "Sir!"
"Tell me, what's the important matter that requires you to see the master? Do you know the consequences of lying?" The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, and murderous intent flashed from his eyes in an instant, as if if what Cheng Nan said did not satisfy him, he would pay the price with his life at this moment.
"How dare you deceive my Lord?"
"Well, tell me, what's the matter?"
"Sir, this matter is of great importance. I'm afraid there might be someone listening. It's best to report this to the master in person. If this matter is exposed, you and I will be held responsible."
This remark hit the old man's sore spot. In this organization, he had no right to decide things.
Soon two men pushed the door open and walked in. Not only were they dressed in black, but they also wore black masks on their faces.
