His face is like the moon, his smile is like a flower.
The master of Yishui Pavilion moved his veil slightly, and his brows were filled with smiles: "The "Two Capital Lists of the Two Capitals" were published in the spring. It is already the beginning of summer, but the number of people on the list who have been executed is less than one-tenth. How many of them can be known?
Why?"
When the four young pavilion masters Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu heard this, they thought they were going to blame them. They stood up one after another, knelt down on one knee, clasped their fists and said in shame: "I have neglected my duty and acted slackly. Please punish me severely!"
The master of the pavilion nodded and smiled, pretending to be surprised: "Why are you guys doing this? I don't mean to blame you! Everyone stood up and spoke. My original intention was that the assassinations were not enough before, the profit was not much, and you were not working hard enough.
The people who want to assassinate are all over the world, and they are too scattered. Even if many assassins are sent out, they can only achieve twice the result with twice the result.
However, as soon as the news of the 'Shendu Martial Arts Conference' came out, it was regarded as doing Yishui Pavilion a big favor. It attracted all the knights and heroes and elite sects scattered in all directions to Luoyang and gathered in Longmen Dongshan. Among them,
Most of the people’s names were published in the "Top Capital List of Two Capitals". Although such a good opportunity is man-made, it is nothing less than God’s help! If we don’t take advantage of this opportunity to harvest a wave of heads, we will let Gongmen and Shi down.
The door’s kindness?”
When Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu heard this, they finally felt relieved and stood up one after another. They said goodbye to the female pavilion master: "I'll make arrangements now! I will make sure that the person who publishes the list will never come back!"
The female pavilion master raised her hand and said in a soft and clear voice: "Don't worry about it for a moment. Can you wait until I finish speaking?"
When the four young pavilion masters heard this, they immediately stopped and she continued, "Xiangshan Temple took the lead, Shimen and Gongmen supported us. This 'Shendu Martial Arts Conference' has no good intentions. We still only do it for
Money and silk can move, and you can't fight for the top spot in the world. Don't take a trip into this muddy water.
According to my idea, I, the Assassin of Yishui Pavilion, can be registered as a temporary and permanently registered assassin, and I can set up ambushes on the several routes that the heroes must pass in and out of the 'Yique Mountain'. I will only kill those who have been rewarded on the list, and immediately retreat after the owl's head.
Don’t get entangled with other disciples, lest you lose your manpower..."
The four young pavilion masters stood quietly in the stone hall, listening carefully and nodding in agreement. The four people's hearts were like bright mirrors:
Yishui Pavilion has been passed down for more than a hundred years. The successive pavilion masters and young pavilion masters all stand out from the permanent assassins and are all people who have reached the pinnacle of martial arts. For example, the four of them are the first "temporary assassins".
He gradually became a "permanent Assassin", and was finally promoted to the Young Pavilion Master by the previous Pavilion Master. During this period, he experienced many battles and dangers, which can be said to be a narrow escape from death. The accumulated assassination achievements can be said to be a huge fortune!
But the female pavilion master in front of her didn't know the slightest bit of martial arts. With only a strategizing mind and two thin lips that understood people's hearts, many people were willing to be like dogs and horses, and get rid of one or more people for her.
He was a man of high status or outstanding martial arts who was offering a reward. In just a few short years, he not only established a firm foothold in Yishui Pavilion, but also crossed the hierarchy and directly took over the position from the previous pavilion master, becoming this middle-class
The leader of the first assassin gang in the country.
Yishui Pavilion is in the business of licking blood from the edge of a knife, and there is no shortage of extremely vicious people. There are many people who are dissatisfied with the new Pavilion Master. Therefore, this female Pavilion Master has just taken over, including three young Pavilion Masters: Qinglong, Baihu, and Zhuque.
Inside, there were several "eternal assassins" who teamed up to force the palace, and even secretly assassinated her.
However, it is unknown what means she used to divide and disintegrate these rebellious people in just a few days. She even killed several stubborn ones with iron-blooded tactics. After a long period of time, the three young masters
Lord, when some permanent assassins met her, they were all as silent as a cicada, and they no longer dared to show any contempt.
What's even more bizarre is that according to private rumors from several "Eternal Assassins" who tried to assassinate her, although the female pavilion master did not understand martial arts, she had a special physique. No matter whether she was chopped with a knife or axe, burned or flooded, she could not be killed.
.
In addition, all the previous pavilion masters were protected by an unknown number of "hidden assassins" whose martial arts skills were unfathomable. Therefore, all assassinations ended in failure.
So far, no one in Yishui Pavilion has any dissatisfaction, and they all obey the advice of the female Pavilion Master.
Especially "Xuanwu" Fang Mengde, because he has been in Luoyang for a long time and has never opposed her, so he is the most valued. Many jobs with generous rewards and low difficulty are inclined to his "Xuanwu Hall". And "Qinglong"
, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird", most of them sent envoys with mediocre rewards but had to travel long distances, but they did not dare to complain at all.
Today, the female pavilion master ordered them all to go to Luoyang, and allowed them to concentrate on assassinating the people who came to participate in the "Shendu Martial Arts Conference" with a reward. This in itself was a signal to forgive the three people for what they had done.
Perhaps when everything in Luoyang is resolved, the three young pavilion masters Qinglong, Baihu, and Zhuque who once opposed her will be able to receive more "fat and thin" missions as before, and save a lot of remuneration.
This will attract more assassins with good martial arts skills...
The female pavilion master analyzed the details and explained some of her plans and strategies to the four young pavilion masters clearly and clearly over a cup of tea.
Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku, and Xuanwu were all impressed when she finished speaking. Without any further hesitation, they bowed and dispersed one after another.
Only the female pavilion master was left leaning on the stone seat, lazily taking off her veil, twisting her waist, and showing a sly smile.
The flying fireflies first come up, and the fan fan flutters lightly.
In front of the woodshed in the backyard of Qin's old house, four lily guards were holding fans and playing with them among the flowers and grass. From time to time, hurried fireflies flew out and tried to escape, but were immediately swung down by the fans and caught in their jade fingers.
The Lily Guards had already put on pea green chest-length undershirts and had double-ringed buns on their hair, just like the attire of the maids of the Qin Mansion. Although they looked like they were talking, laughing, and enjoying themselves, in fact, from the corner of their eyes, the four girls
, they all glanced at the woodshed and the courtyard wall from time to time. They were always on guard against the nun Miao Yuan who was tied up in the woodshed waiting for an opportunity to escape, or the nun from Qiyun Nunnery came to rescue her at night.
The crescent moon was getting higher and the night breeze was slightly cooler. A firefly swayed in the wind and escaped from the jade fingers and flew over the courtyard wall, making the girls giggle.
At this moment, a gray figure appeared on the courtyard wall and jumped straight down. The pupils of the four Lily Guards shrank suddenly, and they threw their fans into the flower bed. They all had a bright horizontal knife in their hands, and they aimed at the gray figure.
Surrounded: "Who is that person?!"
Before the gray shadow fell, two horizontal knives had already slashed towards his legs.
Gray Shadow's figure was nimble. He retracted his legs and flipped in the air, causing the two knives to miss. However, the other two horizontal knives refused to let him go and slashed at Gray Shadow's head, neck and chest respectively.
Gray Shadow had no choice but to pull out a strange-shaped weapon from behind. Hearing several "bang bang dang dang" sounds, all the horizontal knives were blocked. Gray Shadow put away the weapon, stood aside, and looked around.
A Lily Guard shouted: "It's me!"
The four Lily Guards felt their mouths were numb, but they also recognized the strange-shaped weapon, and even heard the identity of the person. They immediately returned the sword to its sheath, put their hands together and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please don't blame me. Welcome."
Frost Moon Protector!"
The person who entered over the wall was none other than Zoroastrian saint Li Xiaoman, Shuangyue Dharma Protector. Seeing the four girls change into regular clothes and stay here, I felt very relieved. They immediately hissed:
"Sisters, please keep your voices down! When Xiaoman came back just now, he accidentally alerted a few bad guards and chased them all the way outside Ningrenfang. In order to avoid being found here and disturbing the tranquility of the Qin Mansion, Xiaoman
Then I walked around the main entrance and climbed over the wall to come in..."
Seeing that the four women had uneasy expressions on their faces, as if they were uneasy about the other party's reckless attack, Xiaoman quickly waved his hands to indicate that it was okay, "Is there anything strange about you guys staying here today? Is Nun Miaoyuan looking for an opportunity to escape again?"
The expressions of the four women were slightly relaxed. One of the Lily Guards made a flame with their hands and performed the Holy Fire Ceremony again before saying: "Master Shuangyue, everything is as usual today. That nun Miaoyuan is much more peaceful, but she still doesn't eat or drink."
Xiao Man heard this and frowned slightly: "How can this be done? If she is really hungry, how can she explain to the leader Wang? Let's do it tonight. When we get up tomorrow morning, the four sisters will definitely think of a way to make her eat.
Some porridge and rice."
The four girls immediately agreed. Another Lily Guard said: "Master Shuangyue! Half an hour ago, Master Tianji Dharma Protector came to look for you. If you want to humble yourself and wait for someone to tell you, when you return, you can go to his study and talk about it.
I have something important to tell you."
Although Xiaoman felt strange, he did not doubt that he was there. He immediately gave a few more instructions to the four Lily Guards, and then walked along the verandah to the study in the front yard.
The study room that Qin Xiangchu mentioned is actually on the east side of the main hall.
The house is small and the furnishings are simple. Looking around, everything is spotlessly clean. On the south side, by the window, is a large desk with a high-backed stool. Outside the north wall are several boxwood shelves, which are piled with stuff.
Bamboo slips, scrolls, sutras and other books.
Obviously, as an imperial merchant, Qin Xiangchu would not let go of the scrolls after selling goods. It can be seen that merchants want to deal with people from the public family, and if they are ignorant, they will only be more and more despised by others.
Xiao Man walked in with light steps. He saw Tan Xiangchu holding a scroll in his left hand and a pen in his right hand. He was looking attentively and copying something at the desk. There were candlesticks burning in the left and right corners of the desk, which made his profile look a little dazed.
white.
Seeing that he didn't notice him, Xiaoman immediately coughed lightly. Tan Xiangchu's right hand suddenly stopped, he put down the scroll and chicken pen, stood up and said with a smile:
"It's Miss Shuangyue who is back! I heard from my little girl that you went to the Cui Mansion alone because of Miss Cui Sixth. Now that you are back safely, I can finally let go of this stone in my heart!"
Xiaoman bowed and said charmingly: "I wonder what the important thing is for the protector of Tianji to find me?"
Tan Xiangchu couldn't help but be slightly startled when he saw her being so straightforward. He then said with a slightly solemn expression, "This matter is not a matter within the sect, but Tan knows that everyone in the sect hates Yuan Zai and Wang Jinzhi hates him to the bone, so he can take advantage of this opportunity."
Action. I have just met with Cult Master Wang and the Guardians of Diwei, Yaori, Shenhuo, and Jianmu, and he all agrees with my approach. Now all I have left is Sister Shuangyue’s nod!"
Xiaoman heard what he said solemnly, and immediately raised his eyes and said: "Tianji Dharma Protector, please speak!" This chapter has been completed!
