Chapter 2 So I'm an Assassin

"A little sister fell from the sky~~My sister Lin~~Han Meimei~~~It's better to have a little sister~~~"

Lu Jin lay on the hay bed, looking at the roof with several holes, humming out-of-tune little songs in one move.

"Hug, that hug~~~ I slept when I reached the bridal chamber~~~ I hug, that hug, that hug~~~ The sister who hugs, the cry of the sunshine screams~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Okay, I know you're hungry, don't be able to 'spend' first. This fish soup is ready for you, so eat it while it's hot!"

Qing'er came in from outside the house with fish soup and said with a smile.

"That...I don't have that...You misunderstood..." Lu Jin seemed embarrassed after hearing Qing'er's words, but he didn't know how to explain, so he could only hesitate and say irrelevant words.

"What's wrong with you? The wound still hurts, right? Drink the fish soup first, take care of your body before singing!" Qing'er said as she put the fish soup in front of Lu Jin.

"You...heard all?"

"Yes, but Qing'er doesn't understand what she is singing. It must be you who learned secretly from that singer. Sun, Sun, Qing'er doesn't care about what you are doing. Now you can finish this bowl of fish soup first!" Qing'er flashed with her big pure eyes as pure as water and said to Lu Jin very seriously.

"I... that...I..." Looking at Qing'er's innocent smiling face, Lu Jin couldn't speak at all, and his mind was completely blank.

"What? Whether you are a day or a meal, you have to put this fish soup in your stomach!" Qing'er looked at Lu Jin and was speechless, unable to speak or drinking the fish soup. She was a little anxious when she saw her.

"Okay, I'll eat, I'll eat, um... huh? Why is the fish so small?" Lu Jin sat up, picked up the bowl, and found that there were only two small fish as big as a palm floating in a large bowl of soup. This little thing was not enough for Lu Jin, who had a huge appetite.

"This is sent by Uncle Song this morning. There are only so many in total. Why don't you eat it?" Qing'er looked at me picking up the bowl and not eating it, then swallowed a few saliva and asked.

“Is there anything else to eat?”

"Brother, you won't forget it, right? You haven't taken over the task for two months, and the food stored at home has long been used up... it has been used up!" Qing'er said with some complaints and aggrievance.

"Ah? So miserable! Then what did you eat after I ate this fish?"

"I...I...I don't have to worry about it anymore, you should eat it soon!" Qing'er looked at the fish soup in Lu Jin's hand and swallowed a few more saliva, but still urged Lu Jin to eat it.

At this time, Lu Jin realized that Qing'er's slightly yellow face was not her original skin color, but caused by long-term hunger. When he looked at this little sister who was hungry and took care of her brother, Lu Jin felt very uncomfortable. In his previous life, he was full by one person and his whole family was not hungry, but now he is not only unable to eat enough, but even this well-behaved and sensible sister has to go hungry...

Lu Jin put down the bowl in his hand, pulled Qing'er to sit down, and said to Qing'er in a very gentle tone: "Qing'er, eat it, you're fine, it'll be fine in two days!"

"No, you must eat. Our family is counting on you. Our parents died early. When they were young, they would give way to me as long as their brother had something to eat, so that Qing'er now would be the one who is now. Now that you are seriously injured, you should take care of your brother. As long as you are well, take on the task and get the silver ounce, we can naturally have food to eat, but... if you are...I am a weak woman..." As he said that, countless tears crawled out of Qing'er's big eyes.

Lu Jin looked at Qing'er who was crying and raining and didn't know what to say. He looked at a large bowl of fish soup on the table and said to Qing'er: "Okay, Qing'er, so we are half of each one!"

"No, I'll give it to you..."

"Listen to me, otherwise I won't eat a bite and starve to death in front of you. You can eat first!"

Looking at Lu Jin's angry face and unreasonable words, Qing'er did not speak anymore, but timidly picked up the big shot in front of her and drank it down.

"Drink some more, how can this be half of it? Hurry up... Clean the meat on the tail of the fish... Slowly, there are thorns on the fish, don't pierce the mouth!" Under Lu Jin's threatening and inciting words, Qing'er slowly turned from a lady's mouth to a voracious swallow, so that she pierced the fish bones into her mouth and took a long time to get it out.

"Okay, it's your turn!" Qing'er wiped her mouth and handed the bowl to Lu Jin. Lu Jin took the bowl and killed the remaining fish soup in just a few seconds. However, after eating, her stomach was still empty, but Lu Jin had no choice but to eat so much at home, so he could only endure it!

"Qing'er, what mission did you just say? You can get money after you complete it, right?" Lu Jin asked when he remembered Qing'er's words just now.

"Yes, I'll give you silver if you finish it!"

"What is that doing? Is it more than silver?"

"You only told me that it was a task, and didn't tell me anything else, so Qing'er didn't know much about it, but she could get three or five taels of silver every time, saving some money is enough for a month!" Qing'er licked the soup on her lips and replied slowly.

After hearing this, Lu Jin was a little confused. What kind of "mission" is so mysterious that even the little sister Qing'er didn't know? Just as Lu Jin was thinking about what the mission was, the houses suddenly made several rhythmic crisp sounds, and then an old voice asked, "Is anyone at home?"

After hearing the sound, Qing'er seemed very happy and stood up and replied, "Someone, I'll open the door for you soon!" Then she ran over, opened the door of the house, walked into a slightly fat old man, and came to me soon.

"This is Uncle Song, the inner hall manager of the 'Jiningtang'!" Qing'er was afraid that I wouldn't remember it, so she took the initiative to introduce it to me, as a reminder to me, "Uncle Song, my brother just woke up, I don't remember some things very clearly. You are always waiting for a while, I'll go out first, you can chat!" Qing'er was like a well-trained soldier. After saying that, she hurriedly left the house, and disappeared without a trace after closing the door.

"I really didn't expect that you would actually survive. It's so lucky!" Uncle Song said leisurely, pinching the gray beard on his chest.

Lu Jin was a little angry when he heard this and thought to himself: What? It's okay for me to die, but before Lu Jin could speak, Song Bo said in a very strict tone: "It's your fate that you didn't die this time. Even if you die, you'll have the best intentions to die. You can't even complete such a simple task as practicing boxing with a child. Do you think you still have the face to bear the name of "assassin"?"

"Assassin" and "assassin"? Lu Jin heard this name and felt a little dizzy. He thought to himself why he said I was a "assassin". Before Lu Jin could figure it out, Song Bo said again:

"It has been ten years since I brought you into the 'Jining Hall', but in the past ten years, have you done decent things? Even if you can't learn well, you still have to be competitive. As a result... I have lost all my old face, and the sign of the 'Jining Hall' is almost ruined by you. Originally, the master of the hall wanted to sweep you out this time, but I gave up my old face to save you. Why are you so unscrupulous?"

As Song Bo said, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped Lu Jin hard. Lu Jin was a little angry. He had not figured out the problem of the assassin in front of him, and he was slapped for no reason. He was even more unfair than Dou E.

"Why hit me? What kind of assassin?" Lu Jin asked angrily.

"Are you really confused or fake? Don't you know you are an assassin?" Song Bo said in confusion.

"Ah? Where is the 'Jiningtang'?"

"It seems that you really don't remember anything, so it's embarrassing to say it. 'Jiningtang' looks like a clinic, and its real identity is an assassin's guild!" Song Bo said impatiently.

Seeing that Lu Jin was injured, Bo Song had no idea about the past, so he calmed down a little, sorted out his emotions, and began to introduce the mysterious industry of the so-called assassin:

It turned out that there were not so many assassins in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was just that more than 20 years ago, after the court suddenly established several guilds dedicated to training assassins, the industry of assassin sprung up across the country like mushrooms after a rain. So far, there are no 1,000 assassin guilds in the country and eight hundred.

Assassin also divides the literary assassin and the martial assassin. The so-called literary assassin mainly engages in lurking and undercover, and the so-called martial assassin mainly engages in assassination and guarding. The guild sends different assassins to complete the tasks according to different tasks. But whether it is a literary assassin or a martial assassin, they must have extremely high martial arts skills to be competent!

Assassins have a wide range of tasks. The smaller ones have guards and guards and children; the larger ones have assassination guards and treasure robberies lurking. As for the level of the assassin, it is relatively broad. It is basically divided into levels within the guild where the assassin is located. Assassins of different levels will be issued with different nameplates. The more expensive the material of the nameplate, the higher the level of the assassin! But the assassin's ability depends not only on the nameplate, but also on the guild where the guild is located. Some guilds may have a low level, but it may become very high when they go to another guild, and vice versa!

"Okay, I won't say so much nonsense to you. The more I say it, I get angry. There is a task now that really has no one. With my strong recommendation, the master promises you to try it. Can you leave?" Song Bo said slowly.

Lu Jin did not reply, covered his face with one hand and looked at him with resentment with both eyes.

"This time is an advanced task. After the task is completed, you will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver. This is the ten taels of silver in advance. If you accept it, take it first. If you don't accept it, forget it!" Song Bo said lightly.

One hundred taels are simply astronomical for Lu Jin, who can’t eat. Even ten taels can solve the life of brothers and sisters for two months. If you don’t have to pay, you will be a fool. So, he nodded vigorously and began to feel that the old man in front of him was quite cute, and the slaps he was hit didn’t hurt so much.

"Okay, you can take these ten taels first. Go to Dongcheng Gate on the second day of the day. Someone will meet you there. You will tell you the specific task on the way. You can do it yourself!" Uncle Song said and threw the ten taels of silver to me, turned around and shook his sleeves and went out.

Lu Jin did not care about Song Bo at all, but hurriedly took the ten taels of silver and looked at it if it was enough. He thought: first solve the problem of food and clothing, so that you can have a full meal this time.

At this time, Qing'er came in from outside the house and looked at the silver in Lu Jin's hand. Her little mouth was so open that she could stuff a big apple into it. So Lu Jin told him about Song Bo's money, but he ignored the assassin's statement and replaced it with a task and explained it in advance. Because at this time Lu Jin realized why the original person didn't tell Qing'er that he was an assassin. Not only did he say the dangers of his career, he was still shameless. Why should this sensible and well-behaved sister be frightened all day long?

When Qing'er heard that Lu Jin was going to go far, she was worried that Lu Jin's health would come, after all, it had not been completely cured. However, Lu Jin insisted on going. In his opinion, a man who could not support his family was not considered a man. So, under Lu Jin's insistence, Qing'er could only agree silently. Lu Jin gave the money to Qing'er and asked her to buy some delicious food. After all, she had to leave at night and she had to have a good meal.

After Qing'er went out, Lu Jin lay back on the grass pavement, looked at the hole in the roof and said to himself: "Assassin, I'm actually an assassin. I didn't expect it. But I can make good use of this special identity in the cracks of history to create a bright future, and at least have to live a good life for my family. Haha, I didn't expect that I was an assassin, which was a bit funny!"
