I looked at him, nodded perfunctorily, closed the car door completely, then drove the car, turned it around, and prepared to leave.

Through the rearview mirror, I saw Qu Yunliu still standing in the heavy snow, as if he wanted to see me leave. For some unknown reason, I rolled down the window, stuck my head out, and asked him.

"Want to go for a spin?"

Qu Yunliu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, thought for a moment, then smiled freely and uttered a word.

"it is good."

In the severe winter weather, the Shield Stronghold and the Ancient City Stronghold had no spare energy to fight. This was a rare free time, so it didn't matter whether Qu Yunliu was in the stronghold or not.

Qu Yunliu opened the car door, sat in the passenger seat again, looked at me, and asked with a smile.

"Why do you suddenly want to take me out for a ride?"

I took the steering wheel, drove the jeep, drove away, and spoke softly.

"Because I suddenly realized that you are quite pleasing to the eye when you are not sick."

Qu Yunliu put his hand on his forehead, couldn't help but sigh, and said.

"Why is it so annoying when you talk to Ajie?"

"Are you trying to drive your attending physician crazy?"

As he spoke, Qu Yunliu suddenly leaned back in the car seat, looking very lazy, and spoke softly.

"Tell me, why are you so upset?"

I didn't hide anything and told Qu Yunliu everything about Wang Quan.

As time passed slowly, the snowflakes grew bigger and bigger, covering the entire car body.

Qu Yunliu listened very carefully from beginning to end without interrupting me. After I finished speaking, he nodded thoughtfully and asked me.

"Are you still upset now?"

I shook my head and spoke softly.

“Not as irritable anymore, but still feeling a little uncomfortable.”

Qu Yunliu asked with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"I want to ask you something. You said you wanted to kill Wang Quan at that time."

"If Qiqi hadn't interfered, would you really have shot?"

Without any hesitation, I nodded and spoke concisely.

"meeting."

Qu Yunliu became even more confused and asked in confusion.

"You obviously valued him, and you treated him as your friend, and you would be annoyed by him, so why didn't you hesitate when you killed him?"

I smiled bitterly, not knowing how to answer, and could only explain awkwardly.

"When I met him half a year ago, he led his men to destroy a stronghold."

"Everyone there was almost dead, but there was a baby lying in a pool of blood. He was covered in blood and was trying to grab his parents' clothes, crying loudly."

"It's like she doesn't understand why her parents don't move, why don't they come to comfort her?"

As I said that, I turned my head, looked at Qu Yunliu, and spoke softly.

"At that time, I really wanted to chop Wang Quan into meat paste and eat it bite by bite."

"So when I have the chance to kill him today, I will not hesitate at all, but I will give him a quick death."

"Anyway, he doesn't look very alive now."

Qu Yunliu was stunned for a moment, then looked forward, and after a moment of silence, he spoke softly.

"I've killed a lot of people."

"Why don't you kill me."

I looked calm, steered the wheel, let the jeep move smoothly in the snow, and whispered softly.

"Because you've saved more people than you've killed."

"The most important thing is that you can save more people if you survive."

Qu Yunliu shook his head and smiled.

"It doesn't make sense, and it's definitely not fair to the people who died because of me."

I glanced at Qu Yunliu, my expression became a little complicated, and I responded softly.

"That's true. If it were me in the past, I would definitely make your death very painful."

Qu Yunliu lowered his eyebrows and asked again.

"What about now? Have you changed now?"

I sighed, looked at the heavy snow outside the car, and spoke slowly.

"I can't take care of everyone, I can only take care of the people I can see."

"I can't even protect this little place."

"You see, at the same time, there are many places in this world where people are experiencing worse things, but I can't help them."

"Think carefully, the story I gave you is very grand."

"But in reality, it is only limited to this city, what nebula body, what god machine."

"They know that this city is the limit of my personal ability."

“That’s why such a high stakes game is set in such a small area.”

"Besides, a bad guy who turns good is always more pleasing to the eye than a good guy who turns bad."

Hearing this, Qu Yunliu wrapped his clothes tightly, coughed lightly a few times, and sighed.

"That's because your standards for me are too low, and your standards for Wang Quan are too high."

"It's ironic that I'm more easily forgiven because I have such a low standard."

I slightly side-glanced and looked at Qu Yunliu with some surprise, and said in astonishment.

"Why do I feel that you don't really want me to kill Wang Quan?"

Qu Yunliu nodded very frankly and spoke softly.

"Yes, because it's not fair."

"You should give him another chance, at least don't let him die so miserably."

I sneered and said.

"That's not what you should say. Wang Quan can't possibly come back. His sister is still in the ancient city stronghold."

“As long as this doesn’t change, he will be bound to the ancient city for the rest of his life, and Mo Li is me, I know that very well.”

"In order to disgust me, Wang Quan and his sister will never be able to leave the ancient city."

"Let him die a worthy death? Nonsense."

Qu Yunliu was a little surprised and smiled.

"It turns out that you don't act purely on emotion, you are very thoughtful."

I curled my lips and was about to say something when I suddenly froze. After a little thought, I felt as if something had suddenly clicked in my mind and muttered to myself.

"So, I was upset because... I failed to kill Wang Quan and set him free?"

Qu Yunliu chuckled and spoke slowly.

"It's very simple. You value your friend Wang Quan very much. It's true that you want to save Gucheng from a murderer, but you also want Wang Quan to be free."

"You can see that he has a hard life."

"You may be irritated because you understand that if you miss this opportunity, you will never be able to kill Wang Quan again."

"I can only watch him drift with the tide, sinking deeper and deeper. Life is hard, but I have to live."

I fell silent, thinking carefully about Qu Yunliu's words. After a moment, I smiled with relief and said softly.

"Mr. Qu, you will indeed be a good doctor."

Qu Yunliu did not refute, but accepted the evaluation calmly, and then he said to me.

"Well, this psychological counseling session is about to end. Shouldn't you send me, the doctor, back home?"

However, I shook my head and spoke softly after hearing this.

"We haven't reached our destination yet, what are we going back for?"

Qu Yunliu was stunned when he heard this, he looked up ahead, but all he could see was the pitch-black night. He frowned and asked.

"Where are you taking me?"

I raised my eyebrows and said with a smile.

"I'll take you to meet my goddaughter, and by the way, meet two strange guys."

Chapter 150: Time is Short

Heavy snow fell on the ground. The jeep crossed the path and stopped in a deserted pasture.

Qu Yunliu slowly opened the car door, wrapped his clothes tightly, exhaled a breath of hot air, looked around, and spoke softly.

"This is a great place to kill someone. I'm beginning to doubt your purpose in bringing me here."

I got out of the car, looked around, but couldn't help shaking my head and laughing.

"In this world, do you need to choose a place to kill someone and silence him?"

Qu Yunliu wrapped his clothes tightly, frowned and sighed.

"I am a genuine patient and I cannot stand your torture."

"If you have anything to do, do it now. I'm freezing to death."

I said nothing more and slowly walked to the abandoned ranch gate. I dug out a rusty iron basin from the thick snow and knocked on it five times with my fist.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

The crisp sound spread in the darkness and spread to the depths of the pasture. A moment later, three crisp sounds were also heard from the depths of the pasture.

After hearing the sound, I knocked on the iron basin twice, then threw it down, stood at the door, and waited quietly.

Qu Yunliu walked over slowly, took a look at the iron basin thrown on the ground, and said with narrowed eyes.

"It's a simple code. Is there anyone of yours living here?"

I brushed the snow off my shoulders, shook my head and said.

"No, just a few friends."

In the heavy snow, a figure was walking from the depths of the pasture, getting closer and closer. It turned out to be a middle-aged man wearing thick clothes.

When the middle-aged man saw me, he smiled, opened the shabby iron door, and spoke while brushing the snow off his body.

"We knew you were coming, and we have been waiting for you for a long time."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man glanced at Qu Yunliu beside him, smiled gently, wiped his hands, then stretched out his hand to Qu Yunliu and said.

"Hello, you must be the friend Xiao Su mentioned."

"I'm Zhao Shanze, just call me Old Zhao."

Qu Yunliu did not hesitate and responded with a gentle smile. He reached out and held Zhao Shanze's hand, and said with a smile.

"Hello Uncle Zhao, I'm Qu Yunliu."

Seeing this, Zhao Shanze smiled naively a few times, then turned around to lead the way for us. Qu Yunliu and I followed behind him, walking slowly forward.

Qu Yunliu said in a low voice with a slightly mocking smile on his face.

"Friend? That's how you introduced me to these people?"

I raised my foot and stepped forward, nodding slightly, ignoring the sarcasm in his tone, and said calmly.

"As long as you are willing, I will treat you as my friend."
