Chapter 231: The Empire's No. 1 Master Twenty Years Ago
As soon as these words came out, I saw Chao Yani nodding proudly to himself, and with a wave of his hand, he summoned a subordinate to call Zhou Xi, Du Zhe's heart "banged" and jumped, and he suddenly had a stronger interest in the mysterious killer Zhou Xi, and his eyes exposed outside the mask became brighter and brighter.
Du Zhe firmly believes that Chao Yani praises Zhou Xi so much, this Zhou Xi must be a man with outstanding appearance and strong physique, and it may even be very different from ordinary people, otherwise, Du Zhe really can't imagine that if Zhou Xi looks like an ordinary person, how can he do every mission without missing a hand, he can have such a big name, and the killer must be extremely extraordinary.
"My lord, are you looking for me?"
"Yes. Come on, come on! Zhou Xi, let me introduce to you, this is Master Du Zhedu, a fortune teller who can calculate the fortune of others. ā
However, not long after, after seeing a thin and not too stunning young man walking in front of him with a big knife more than one meter long, Du Zhe found that the other party and Chao Yani were talking and laughing, and the two didn't talk a few words, Chao Yani introduced the person to himself, it turned out that this person was Zhou Xi, who was praised by Chao Yani, but Du Zhe couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
"What's the matter, Master Du, I don't think you're so happy?"
At this time, hearing Chao Yani's question in his ears, Du Zhe looked up, only to see Zhou Xizheng smiling and stretching out his hand that was softer than a woman in front of him, hoping to shake hands with himself, Du Zhe took a closer look and found that Zhou Xi's fingers were actually longer than a woman's, not like a monk should be, and he was even more disappointed, but because of Chao Yani's face, he still stretched out his hand.
"Hello, Master. Under normal circumstances, Lord Chao will not look for me, and generally looking for me must have a big problem that cannot be handled. Excuse me, Master, do you have any important tasks when you look for me? Master, as long as you have any needs, just tell me Zhou Xi, there is no work related to murder that I Zhou Xi can't do. ā
Then, hearing Zhou Xi's arrogant words, the more Du Zhe looked at it, the more he felt that Zhou Xi was unreliable, and the more he felt that Zhou Xi was unreliable, the more difficult it was to believe the other party, so when he thought about it, he felt a strong disgust in his heart, and his heart was not as much as he looked forward to Zhou Xi when he didn't meet, but became more and more cold, not believing how capable this man with an unremarkable appearance and a very thin physique was.
"Master. Zhou Xi was right. Don't think he's bragging. What he said was true. I, Chao Yani, have been able to sit firmly in the position of prime minister in the empire for so many years, thanks to the help of Zhou Xi, a good subordinate. You can quickly calculate Yang Qiu's position now, let Zhou Xi go out, and it will definitely be a success!"
At this time, hearing Chao Yani's strong affirmation of Zhou Xi's strength came from his ears, Du Zhe turned his head to look at Zhou Xi again, and found that there was no killer temperament between the other party's eyebrows, the more he looked at it, the more he felt fake, and the more he felt fake, the more he felt that Chao Yani praised Zhou Xi too much, so he lowered his head and thought for a while, then hugged his fist at Chao Yani, and expressed the doubts in his heart, hoping that Chao Yani would understand.
"Lord Chao, you have been talking about how great Zhou Xi's ability is, but you have never seen it with your own eyes. It's not that I'm cautious, but I look at Zhou Xi's appearance really doesn't look like a master, his temperament is too ordinary, and I don't know whether to trust such a person or not.
From the words of the adult just now, it can almost be heard that the adult loves Zhou Xi. Therefore, I still feel that this matter should be considered more cautiously, I am afraid that you will exaggerate, Zhou Xi has been with adults for many years, and he thinks very highly of himself, he doesn't know the sinister outside, and he is afraid that he will miss if he kills Yang Qiu with blind confidence. At that time, it won't be good to say.
Zhou Xi's reputation left over the years will plummet, if his life is accidentally gone, it will disappoint the adults, and there are not many opportunities to kill Yang Qiu this time, I'm afraid there is only one time, if Zhou Xi is only sent alone, it is too hasty, and I don't want to give up this opportunity.
If the adults insist on sending Zhou Xi to attack, then it is better to build a yƬ in Xia, or bring the army of spirit beasts from last time, in this case, it will definitely be more reliable than sending Zhou Xi alone. ā
However, it was found that Chaoyani could not understand. Du Zhe looked up, only to see that after his words landed, Chao Yani's face changed rapidly, first surprised and confused, and then a trace of deeper and deeper dissatisfaction appeared on his face, and then, the dissatisfaction escalated into anger, his face trembled slightly, the green tendons on his forehead were hideously raised, and under the violent trembling, there was a murderous aura between his eyebrows, and Du Zhe realized that it was not good.
So, after a change of mind, Du Zhe bowed respectfully to the angry Chao Yani in fear, and quickly changed his words, wanting to repeat what he had just said in a more tactful and acceptable way, hoping that Chao Yani would fully understand his painstaking efforts instead of misunderstanding.
"Hahahaha...... Hahahaha...... Well said! Well said! This method is indeed reliable enough! It is much more reliable than sending Zhou Xi alone!"
But just when Du Zhe opened his mouth again and was just about to speak, he suddenly heard Chao Yani's happy laughter in his ears, Du Zhe looked up, and saw that Chao Yani obviously had a terrible look on his face just now, and after turning his head to look at Zhou Xi next to him, all the terrible looks on his face were gone in an instant, replaced by happiness from the heart, and Du Zhe was immediately stunned.
Why did Chao Yani suddenly agree with his own ideas?
Du Zhe couldn't understand, thought about it and thought about it, and couldn't get a satisfactory answer, but if he didn't understand it, he also knew that Chao Yani's words could not be taken seriously at this moment, this may be Chao Yani laughed angrily, dissatisfied with himself to the bone A kind of expression, maybe Chao Yani has killed himself in his heart, so, after thinking about it, Du Zhe was frightened, and immediately opened his mouth to beg for mercy.
"Chao Lord, I'm sorry! I'm really sorry! You shouldn't have said so much nonsense, you know it's wrong, and your methods are not reliable. What I said just now was a shallow joke, and I ask you not to be angry! ā
"Hahahaha. Master, why do you bother? You don't have to apologize to me, I really agree with you!"
Du Zhe doesn't want to die now, although he is a lot older, he still wants to live well in this wonderful world, enjoy good wine, food and women.
"Lord Chao. I really know that I am wrong. Please spare me. Just send Zhou Xi on a mission, and I'll calculate Yang Qiu's whereabouts for him now. Absolutely no more nonsense. ā
"Master. You don't have to. It's not you who is at fault, it's me. ā
However, finding that it was useless to beg for mercy, Chao Yani didn't forgive himself at all, the more he begged for mercy, the more Chao Yani laughed, but his eyes had gradually revealed more and more murderous intent, Du Zhe knew that his life was in danger, and he immediately fell into despair, so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word, for fear that the other party would force him into a desperate situation.
"Master. You still don't believe me, do you? I'll give you a chance to live. Under normal circumstances, anyone who dares to question my strength will be killed by my own hands, but for the sake of you being a distinguished guest, you can have a cup of tea with me. When I'm done drinking this cup of tea, I'll let you go, what do you think?"
At this time, he suddenly heard Zhou Xi's voice in his ears, and Du Zhe turned his head to look.
I saw Zhou Xi pick up the teacup in front of Chao Yani, right in front of him, and began to drink tea, Du Zhe's heart "bang" jumped, and suddenly a trace of ecstasy swelled, I didn't expect Zhou Xi to look good, and his strength was a little exaggerated, but his character was good, and he would kindly intercede for himself.
"This ......"
However, he carefully observed Zhou Xi again, and found that Zhou Xi just took a sip and didn't continue to drink, and there was still more than half of the tea in his hand, so he put the teacup back on the table, and the more Du Zhe looked at it, the more scared he became, the more he regretted what he said, and immediately changed to Zhou Xi and begged for mercy sincerely.
"Save ......"
However, at this moment, he suddenly saw a cold light flashing in Zhou Xi's eyes, his fingers moved slightly, and the big knife behind him was like lightning, shooting towards him with a murderous burst, looking like he was going to take his own life, Du Zhe was immediately frightened, and accidentally fell to the ground with a pale face, and he didn't even dare to move, but instinctively screamed, hoping to live.
"Sorry, Master, scared you. Come on, get up. Don't get me wrong, I didn't intend to harm you, just now you had a fly flying over your head, and I was afraid that it would harass you, so I killed it. You see. ā
A moment later, seeing Zhou Xi grinning at him, he didn't see how the other party moved, he suddenly lived in front of him, and grabbed the big knife flying in the air, and pointed out to himself the corpse of a fly that was stabbed to death by the tip of the knife, Du Zhe realized how terrible Zhou Xi's strength was, and suddenly became even more afraid, and the more he looked at Zhou Xi's smiling face, the more he regretted it.
knew that Zhou Xi's strength was really so powerful, so he shouldn't have judged people by his appearance and doubted the other party before this.
But it's too late to think about anything now. After discovering this, he began to be frightened by Zhou Xi one after another, becoming stricter and more terrifying each time, and in the end, he realized that if he continued to suffer like this, even if he really would not be killed by Zhou Xi, he would be scared to death by himself, Du Zhe immediately hugged Zhou Xi's leg in fear, and cried and begged for mercy without shame.
"I was wrong! Brother Zhou Xi, no, it's Lord Zhou! Please don't scare me! I admit that what I said before was nonsense. Please spare me, okay? It's terrible! My heart is really about to get sick of it, and I'm afraid I'll be scared to death if I continue to be scared like this!"
"Master Du, you are a guest of Lord Chao, how dare I scare you. I'm just kidding you. However, since you can't stand it anymore, then I just don't play, and it's almost time to stop anyway. However, at the end of the game, I want to show you something. Do you know what that is?"
"The moon. Lord Zhou, you ...... I beg you, I really can't stand the fright, please let me go......"
"Shut up for me! Old thing! Do you know that I Zhou Xi can't stand what others think of me the most in my life? What I can't bear the most is that someone dares to question my strength! Those who once doubted my strength have all been killed by me, and the number one master and the number one killer of the empire are all wastes with a false name! I got these titles twenty years ago!
Do you think the person you're going to kill has stronger defenses than the moon?"
"This one definitely doesn't. The moon is a planet, and no matter how strong the monk's defense is, it is impossible to reach the ...... of the planet."
"Well said. Then you will open your eyes for me right now and watch how the moon is destroyed by me!"
However, after a detailed conversation with Zhou Xi, he suddenly heard Zhou Xi say that he would destroy the distant moon by himself, although Du Zhe had a huge affirmation of Zhou Xi's strength in his heart, he looked up at the moon that had been good for countless years, and then looked at Zhou Xi's confident eyes, he still didn't believe it, and suddenly showed a deep suspicion.
