"Since you are a teacher, you should teach children how to read and write calmly like Xiang Wenbo. Why should you leave your hometown and go to Xiangzhou to swim in this muddy water?" Xiao Mu asked, throwing the knife on the table and holding it.
He retched twice more.
"Are you okay? What did you eat?" I asked suspiciously when I saw Xiao Mu taking out the brocade bag from the cloth bag again and stuffing something into his mouth.
Xiao Mu handed the brocade bag to me. I picked up one and tasted it. It turned out to be a plum. It had the same taste as the one Wang Jiajia fed me in the afternoon. I should have bought it at Huang's pastry shop.
"do not move!"
In the moment of distraction, Yang Mosheng had already snatched the knife on the table. He held the knife with both hands and pointed it at Xiao Mu's back, as if he was going to stab him at any time.
"Brother Yang, what are you doing?" I was shocked and regretful in my heart. It was all my fault. I knew that Yang Mosheng was a meticulous worker, so why did I let him snatch the knife?
Xiao Mu ate the plums calmly, without any fear on his face, and even sneered: "Why, you can't pretend anymore? Let me tell you, you are really here to kill me."
"You were right just now. I passed on a lot of wrong information. My master will not let me go. Now I can only regain his trust by killing you."
"Then what? What can you gain? When you return to Tubo, people will not regard you as a hero, because you are nothing." Xiao Mu still said calmly, as if pointing a knife at others.
"I don't want a high official or a good salary, I just want you dead!" Yang Mosheng suddenly became angry, and the knife in his hand moved closer to Xiao Mu, and it was already attached to his clothes.
"Brother Yang, don't... put the knife down first, if you have anything to say." I was a little panicked. Xiao Mu, Xiao Mu, don't you think you're quite smart? Why are you still irritating him? I'm not afraid that he will really
Stab him with a knife?
"Since you want me dead so much, then take action! What are you waiting for?" Xiao Mu sneered: "If it were Zhu Jiang, he would definitely take action without hesitation, because he is the real craftsman.
At that time, his identity was exposed and he was defeated by Lieutenant Mu. He was originally going to be sent to Chang'an for torture. However, I respected him as a man, so I secretly untied him, and he was able to commit suicide, leaving a complete body.
.Subsequently, I ordered Long Yuhan to prepare a good coffin for him to be buried in peace..."
"Stop talking!" Yang Mosheng was a little excited, and the hands holding the knife were trembling slightly.
"What I said is true. I can also assure you that Zhu Jiang committed suicide because his identity was exposed. This is Xi Zuo's fate. You should be mentally prepared from the moment he leaves home."
I looked at Yang Mosheng's reaction and pondered Xiao Mu's words carefully. Could it be that... Zhu Jiang, the spy who was executed by Xiao Mu not long after he took office, was a relative of Yang Mosheng?
"So...I want to complete the task that he failed to complete for him. I...I want to kill you!" Yang Mosheng roared, his hands shaking even more.
Xiao Mu turned around and looked directly at him: "What? Haven't you ever practiced how to kill people? Why are your hands shaking? Just slash at this!"
I saw Xiao Mu pointing at his heart and instructing Yang Mosheng to kill himself. I was shocked for a moment. Is this Xiao Mu really mentally ill and not afraid that Yang Mosheng would actually kill him with a knife?
"Don't force me..." Yang Mosheng became even more excited. He gasped and stared at Xiao Mu and shouted. His whole body was shaky, and the knife in his hand seemed to be falling at any time.
"What do I force you to do? Don't you want to avenge your brother? Then kill me! Your parents died early and the two brothers depended on each other. Your brother has learned good kung fu and is eager to get ahead so that you can live a good life.
.
However, you were born in poverty and have no power. Even if you have real skills, how can you be crowned king and prime minister so easily? You can only make money by going to the enemy country to be a spy alone, and risking your life alone.
The money your brother has earned for you is enough for you to have enough food and clothing for a lifetime. You also promised him to live a good life. Why did you break your promise to him after learning about his death and travel thousands of miles to Xiangzhou, even underestimating your ability?
Do you want to be my enemy?"
Xiao Mu's calm narration caused Yang Mosheng to collapse completely. He collapsed to the ground and couldn't even hold the knife. I saw the right moment and kicked his knife away, then stretched out my hand to block it.
In front of Xiao Mu.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing?" Xiao Mu thought I was in the way, so he pushed me away and continued to say to Yang Mosheng: "Your identity has been exposed now, what are your plans in the future?"
"The future? Hahahaha... Where does the future come from? Aren't you going to kill me? I'm a meticulous worker..." Yang Mosheng said with a bitter smile.
"You are so meticulous? You can't even kill someone." Xiao Mu said with contempt: "I think you are only qualified to study, manage accounts, or help Li Jianghu carry the burden."
"Hey, people are meticulous after all. What you said is too insulting. You are an imperial envoy. You have been in the officialdom for so many years. You should know how to behave, right? You should respect others, okay?"
Seeing that Xiao Mu had the upper hand, he couldn't help but join in the conversation.
I am also a secret agent, and like this Yang Mosheng, I am afraid that when it comes to killing people, I can't do it, but at least I can't be too derogatory because of this reason.
"Okay, it's my fault. Sometimes what I say is so irritating. Don't take it to heart. So, what we have to consider now is, how should I deal with you? Is it better to ignore the conversation just now and continue?
Are you secretly seeking information? Or should I cooperate with you and bring you to me?" Xiao Mu asked.
Yang Mosheng was silent. This question was really difficult to answer. The key point was that Xiao Mu shouldn't ask him.
"Okay, what time is it? It's time to go back to bed." Another voice sounded from behind.
I looked back and was so shocked that I almost fell down: "You...who are you?"
Seeing that he was dressed in black, holding a black sword, and wearing a black gauze hat on his head, but his face was not covered, at first glance I thought he was County Lieutenant Mu, but upon closer inspection, he was much older than Lieutenant Mu County.
He must be in his forties.
"Oh, let me introduce you. This is my guard and the master of Lieutenant Mu, Ouyang Daxia." Xiao Mu took his arm and looked very affectionate.
"Oh, I've met Daxia Ouyang." I bowed to him with my hands folded.
When did this person enter the house? There was no sound at all. It seemed that Qinggong was very good. Mu Xianwei's kung fu was already high enough. He was also Mu Xianwei's master. He was probably one of the best in the world, right?
Even Dongfang Hong is willing to listen to Xiao Mu's orders. It's not surprising that such a master suddenly appears next to him. Last time Nuan Xin assassinated him, it was said that besides Mu Xianwei, there were other masters guarding the imperial envoy, but they couldn't defeat him.
Come on, maybe this is the person.
"Aren't you afraid that people will worry if you sneak out so late?" Ouyang Daxia looked at Xiao Mu kindly and blamed him.
Xiao Mu covered his mouth and smiled: "I added something to the water he drank to ensure that he slept until dawn."
"It's nonsense again! Go back."
Xiao Mu pointed at Yang Mosheng: "What should he do?"
Ouyang Daxia glanced at him and wanted to draw his sword.
Xiao Mu held Daxia Ouyang down: "This is a new house, how can we live in it if there is a dead person? Besides, I am in a special period now, and I don't want to see much blood."
"Then find a place to lock him up." I said.
Frankly speaking, this Yang Mosheng is really not a bad person. If he were not careful, we might still be friends. After living in my house for so long, I still have some feelings for him. Just watching him die, I also
I can't bear it.
"Hey, that's a good idea." Xiao Mu was very satisfied: "That'll be a great job."
"Brother Li." Yang Mosheng looked at me calmly: "Thank you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark shadow rushed behind him. I didn't even see how Ouyang Daxia took action, and Yang Mosheng fell down.
"you……"
"Don't worry, Ouyang just knocked him unconscious. I will find a place to settle him. Now he will die if he returns to Tubo. Only his disappearance will make Lin Sheng panic. One of his men is still imprisoned in the county
Let's poison him quietly in the prison, and kill the other person." Xiao Mu picked up the knife on the ground and handed it over: "Use this to make Lin Sheng think it's Yang Mo's vivid hand, and then run away.
"
"Then I'll get busy first, be careful." Ouyang Daxia said, mentioning Yang Mosheng. I only felt a black shadow flash past, and the two of them seemed to disappear out of thin air.
"Hey, are you okay?" Xiao Mu patted my shoulder and asked.
"Okay." I looked at Xiao Mu blankly. His words just now were still echoing in my ears: He spared Yang Mosheng's life, but one of Yang Mosheng's men was poisoned and another was killed. How easy it is to say that! Human life means nothing to him.
In terms of weight, how many kilograms and taels does it weigh?
"What? Do you think I'm cold?" Xiao Mu seemed to have guessed my thoughts and asked with a smile.
I smiled lightly: "Master once taught me that being soft-hearted towards the enemy is cruelty to oneself. Perhaps this is the difference between us. Although we are friends, you can become an imperial envoy, while I can only
I'm selling tofu because I don't have the courage to kill as decisively as you."
"I can't help it. It's rare to find a clean place in this world today. I don't want to see the war raging as soon as the child is born." Xiao Mu said, touching his belly.
I couldn't help but look at his belly: "What child?"
Xiao Mu smiled: "Isn't your mother pregnant? Do you want to run away wherever the child comes out?"
Grandma? What he said reminded me that the noise just made so loudly did not scare Grandma. I thought about it and wanted to run towards Grandma's room.
Xiao Mu grabbed me and said, "It's okay. Madam is sleeping soundly. I lit a soothing incense for her."
"What? You..."
"Don't worry, Doctor Li said it's harmless to pregnant women." Xiao Mu said, rummaging through Yang Mosheng's room, and then said: "Li Jianghu, I have one last task for you."
"explain."
"Early tomorrow morning, let's go do some New Year shopping and buy a jar of wine at Thousand Cups of Wine, and then rush to the county government to report the case. They said that Yang Mosheng didn't come back all night, and he wasn't even seen in the wine shop."
"Then what?"
"Then, Magistrate Xu had a stomachache and could not be promoted to court. The county magistrate went to visit the countryside and was not there, so he had to hand the case to Chief Lin for trial. Haha, let them think about it. Just report him missing and we will deal with you later.
New Year's goods, and celebrate the New Year in peace. You should be able to live in peace for a while, because Tubo wants to clean up the secret work that has sneaked into the interior." Xiao Mu said, as if he had a plan in mind.
I have some questions: "How many spies did you send to infiltrate Tibet? Are they in danger?"
Xiao Mu couldn't help but laugh and said: "How do I know? It depends on their ability. They can find out as much as they want. What does it have to do with me! Is there any leftover bean curd at home? I'm really hungry. Let's have a bowl.
