Although the location and contact person were very strange, I don't know what tricks she used. Ten minutes later, the back door of the restaurant opened with a creak, and an old acquaintance walked in.
"Long time no see." Li Xuan smiled at the man and pushed the burning knife in front of him to the other side of the table. "You must be thirsty. I ordered you a glass of wine."
The person who came was none other than Gan Wangdao. He also changed his attire and was wrapped in an exotic robe.
After listening to Li Xuan's words, Gan Wangdao came over with a wry smile: "Even dogs won't drink from that thing."
The two people's eyes met, and they both smiled knowingly.
"I haven't seen you for half a year. I thought you were dead." Gan Wangdao sat down and moved his shoulders. His face was a bit haggard and he looked very tired.
"Not only did I not die, I was also living a good life." Li Xuan laughed.
"That's great. I thought my investment in you was wasted." Gan Wangdao's mood did not fluctuate at all. It seemed that Li Xuan was safe and sound.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, they got down to the topic. Gan Wangdao whispered: "You don't just come to Fengjing City to meet me, an old friend, do you?"
Li Xuan chuckled: "First, you are not my old friend, there is only a transaction between us. Second, after all, I still owe you something, and I want to pay it back all this time."
"Are you sure?" Gan Wangdao narrowed his eyes, "With your intelligence, you should know that the target is difficult to deal with."
"If I wasn't sure, why would I come to you? Wouldn't it be nice to find a small village and live a happy life?" Li Xuan said.
Gan Wangdao stared at Li Xuan for a long while and then said: "I really don't understand you, but you seem to have improved a lot. If my guess is right, you are at least at the peak of the golden elixir, right?"
Li Xuan just smiled slightly, neither admitting nor denying. Gan Wangdao sighed: "I can't beat you now, but if you think you can complete the assassination at the peak of the golden elixir, you are wrong."
"Whether I can complete the assassination is my business, but I need your help." Li Xuan said.
Gan Wangdao hesitated: "Our goals have changed recently. The national master has not shown up for a long time, and now we can't even find his whereabouts."
"Oh?" Li Xuan narrowed his eyes. He synthesized all the information and came to a conclusion immediately, "Could it be that the Imperial Master is too old and the one who makes decisions now is his son?"
Gan Wangdao nodded: "Yes, Du Rufeng has been training young monks before and has cultivated a group of private forces, and he seems to be secretly carrying out a huge conspiracy..."
He hesitated to speak, thinking that he didn't know whether he should disclose such important information to Li Xuan.
"I know, it must be the coming of foreign lands." Li Xuan said.
Gan Wangdao was startled, but he quickly came to his senses: "You actually know everything..."
"Are you planning to change the target to Du Rufeng?" Li Xuan asked.
Gan Wangdao nodded: "Yes, Du Rufeng has been very popular recently, and he has done a lot of things against our Imperial College. He is now the thorn in the side of No. 1, and if we kill him, we can force out the old man behind the scenes.
, let us know whether he is really too old to move, or whether he is pretending."
Li Xuan thought for a moment, and realized that his enemy was originally Du Rufeng, so it was the right thing to change his assassination target to Du Rufeng.
"I am willing to continue." Li Xuan made a decision.
"The Imperial College and the military will fully support you. If you can succeed, you will also receive a generous reward, ensuring that you can have food and clothing without worries for the rest of your life." Gan Wangdao stretched out his hand to Li Xuan.
"Then it's settled." Li Xuan stretched out his hand and held it with Gan Wangdao's. From this moment on, the operation to assassinate Du Rufeng was officially launched.
…
“The food here tastes really good, much better than the Imperial Hotel, and the price is so cheap. Your recommendation is great.”
In an unknown small shop, under the dim light, Li Xuan and Meili sat opposite each other, scanning the dishes on their plates. It seemed that both of them had quite good appetites.
"The food in the Imperial Hotel is expensive and not delicious. I will recommend more delicious and cheap restaurants to you in the future. How can you thank me?" Meili said mischievously.
It has been more than half a month since the couple's spring night. During this period, Mei Li was very busy, but she still often found time to have trysts with Li Xuan. Now the two of them are familiar with every inch of each other's body.
They are as glued together as a pair, just like a couple.
The more contact Li Xuan gets, the more he discovers that Meili has different faces. Sometimes she is a strong woman, sometimes she is a delicate little woman, sometimes she is naughty, sometimes she is saintly, making it difficult for people to see her true character clearly.
Occasionally, Li Xuan would think that after the troubles between the Du family and his son were solved, he might be able to include Meili in the harem.
"My people are all yours, how can I thank you?" Li Xuan replied with a smile. He now understands women's thoughts more and more, and he is also very skillful in speaking disgusting words. If he had done those things when he was on Earth,
Old acquaintances will definitely laugh out loud when they see this scene.
"Glib tongue." Mei Li was obviously very happy in her heart, but she refused to admit it. After all, she was also a woman, and she couldn't escape a woman's petty temperament.
"By the way, what have you been busy with recently? You haven't been with me for two days." Li Xuan asked seemingly casually. In fact, he had already grasped Meili's whereabouts in the past two days through Gan Wangdao's intelligence network.
"Oh, there are some troublesome things that I have to deal with." Meili sighed, with a trace of helplessness on her pretty face.
"Is there anything I can do to help?" Li Xuan asked.
Meili's eyes lit up, but she quickly shook her head: "Forget it, don't get involved. This matter is very troublesome, and there may not be many benefits. I don't want to trick you."
Li Xuan stretched out his hand, grabbed Mei Li's hand and squeezed it gently: "You treat me as an outsider. If you need help, I hope you will think of me first."
These words were hundreds of times more lethal to women. Meili was so moved that her eyes even sparkled with crystal tears. Women are really emotional animals. Even if a man doesn’t do anything, as long as he says a few nice words, he will
Can capture their reason.
"Okay, tell me obediently what difficulties you have." Li Xuan said.
Mei Li was completely conquered by Li Xuan, and told her everything she had been doing recently. Du Rufeng had to ask for a lot of gold ingots these days, and all the money raised from the auctions a few days ago had been exhausted.
Still unable to meet the Du family's needs, Meili has been raising money everywhere these days.
"What does he need so much money for? Aren't all monks rich? Don't he have enough to spend?" Li Xuan asked intentionally or unintentionally.
"He is currently working on a big plan, and no amount of money is enough." Meili shook her head and said, "It is simply a bottomless pit."
