Chapter 405: Ji Zhaoning

Hearing such a truth, it naturally scared Su He enough.

"You...... What do you say? They're going to kill you?"

Su He's eyes widened.

In the previous month, while preparing various supplies according to Dongfang Shuo's instructions, he was also figuring out the situation he would encounter after the expedition. He had even thought about many ways to die, but he never thought that it would be possible to be killed by his own people.

Dongfang Shuo nodded: "But at least, not tonight." ”

If you want to do it, it's too early tonight, because it's still too close to the city, and there will inevitably be witnesses, so there are hidden dangers.

So once they do it, he will definitely wait until he arrives at the destination before he does it, and it would be best if he could fish in troubled waters. If not, it's not impossible for them to become the only five survivors.

"Why do you know so much?" Su He frowned, his eyes were even more flustered because of panic, "But who is going to kill you?

Dongfang Shuo didn't answer him immediately, but picked up the teapot on the side unhurriedly, poured himself a cup of tea and handed it to his mouth.

But when the tea came to his mouth, he found that the tea was already cold.

After glancing at the teapot, I realized that it was just an ordinary teapot, and the tea had been brewed for almost an hour, and it was natural to cool down.

In the past, when he was in the yard, it was Shen Gongjin who heated the tea for him, so the tea under the trees in the courtyard was always hot. But now, when you go out, you can experience these details.

Dongfang Shuo sighed lightly, and then didn't drink the tea, just put the teacup back on the table.

Then, he looked at Su He and said, "It's Lu Yanzhang who wants to kill me." ”

"The head of the sect?"

Su He was taken aback, but he still suppressed his volume as much as possible.

Lu Yanzhang is responsible for the training of this group of newcomers, so as a newcomer, it is natural for Su He to call him the head coach.

On the other hand, Lu Yanzhang's training is extremely harsh, but if there is even the slightest mistake, he will be punished. It can be said that Lu Yanzhang has a very poor reputation among newcomers, and even complains.

"In the past few days of living in the mansion area, I have also cultivated a few of my own people to keep an eye on Lu Yanzhang, so I can get this news. Dongfang Shuo said.

And such an explanation naturally made Su He easily believe it.

First of all, in Su He's opinion, Dongfang Shuo's methods have always been very clever, and he doesn't know about Lu Yanzhang's means of existence, so he doesn't doubt whether Dongfang Shuo can put eyeliner next to Lu Yanzhang.

But of course, today's Dongfang Shuo is simply not enough to have such means.

And the reason why he was able to know about this was purely a coincidence.

One day a few days ago, Gongzi Zhang, as usual, informed Dongfang Shuo about the movements of the crown prince and the six princes through the message jade, and in the matter of the six princes that day, because he was implicated, he also brought about Lu Yanzhang by the way. Originally, Gongzi Zhang didn't need to tell Dongfang Shuo more, but in the content of the piggyback, he still added something that had nothing to do with the six princes, and Lu Yanzhang secretly gave orders to those five people.

But if you think about it, some things make sense.

Gongzi Zhang's purpose is to make a deal with Dongfang Shuo, and the premise is that Dongfang Shuo must be guaranteed to live. Therefore, by the way, I told Dongfang Shuo the news about the assassination of Dongfang Shuo that I got by chance, so that Dongfang Shuo could prevent trouble before it happened, which was also beneficial to Gongzi Zhang's purpose.

But although this matter can be thought out clearly, Dongfang Shuo may not be able to see through another matter implicated at the same time.

Akira Childe got the news...... Is it really just a coincidence?

"Brother Dongfang, what should I do then?" Su He hurriedly asked, "Since you are the chief teacher...... Lu Yanzhang gave them an order, so even if they don't do it tonight, they will do it sooner or later. ”

Dongfang Shuo nodded and said, "That's true, but don't panic, just improvise." ”

"I don't think it's better for us to strike first. While speaking, Su He's right hand turned into a hand knife, and it slashed in the air from top to bottom.

Seeing him make such a proposal, Dongfang Shuo was a little pleased.

This guy is not very old, but he is also quite ruthless, and this kind of character makes a person with low talent more able to survive in this world.

It's just that the weak have their way of living, and the strong have the choice of the strong.

Not to mention those five people, even if Lu Yanzhang personally took action, there is absolutely no possibility of killing Dongfang Shuo now.

And in that case, it is better to keep them and let them become your pawns.

Once they make a move against themselves, it will be equivalent to giving them a reason to impeach Lu Yanzhang, which will definitely be an opportunity to bring down Lu Yanzhang.

Maybe Lu Yanzhang was there when he gave the order, and he would never have thought that he would not be able to kill Dongfang Shuo.

"There's no rush. Dongfang Shuo shook his head and said, "You just said that there are many people in the team of five hundred people, and now they haven't really done anything to me, if they kill them like this for no reason, it will only make our team disheartened, resulting in heavy casualties in the end." ”

Su He also nodded thoughtfully.

Relatively speaking, he still trusts Dongfang Shuo's choice.

And since Dongfang Shuo could be so indifferent, Su He also believed that those five people would not be a threat, so he relaxed a little.

"By the way, how many of them are among the five hundred, and how many of us are there?" After a pause, Dongfang Shuo suddenly asked.

After thinking about it, Su He took the roster from the table, picked up the pen from the side, and began to paint.

After a while, he chose some names by drawing them in circles.

"The five of them are drawn in circles, and the ones drawn in horizontal lines are those who have no clear position. When Su He handed the roster to Dongfang Shuo, he said, "As for the rest of the names, they are all our own." ”

The so-called own people are the newcomers of the 28th county of the empire, those who regard Dongfang Shuo as their big brother.

Dongfang Shuo looked at the names drawn in the circle, and counted them with a glance.

"Sixty-seven of their men, two hundred and three of our men, and two hundred and thirty who did not stand on either side. Dongfang Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered, "This situation is much better than I originally expected, at least not most of them." ”

But even so, Dongfang Shuo's heart tightened slightly.

Nearly half of the people in the vanguard team arranged by the empire this time are newcomers, and these people who have just come to the spiritual realm for only a month have been sent to death by the empire, which is really embarrassing if you think about it.

After sighing lightly, Dongfang Shuo closed the list: "I probably understand, you go down first." ”

"Good. ”

Su He nodded, did not hesitate, turned his head and left Dongfang Shuo's tent.

After the tent door fell, Dongfang Shuo looked at the lights on the side, and took out the messenger jade from his body.

However, it was not long after sunset, so the news had not come so quickly, but before getting today's news, Dongfang Shuo passed on his own news first.

He thought about the other end of the jade and asked a question: among the five people, is there one of his own.

This question has been haunting his mind since he learned that these five people were going to kill him.

Lu Yanzhang has never left anyone around him, perhaps because he is afraid of being inserted into his eyes. Because of this, it is almost impossible to insert eyeliner next to Lu Yanzhang.

But Gongzi Zhang still knew about Lu Yanzhang's order, which means that there must be an undercover agent among the insiders.

Of course, Lu Yanzhang himself can't be an undercover agent, so the undercover agent may be among the five people who received the order.

After about a cup of tea, a spot of light suddenly appeared in the center of the jade pendant.

The light spot flickered three or five times before disappearing, and Dongfang Shuo immediately mobilized spiritual power and injected it into the jade pendant.

Immediately, meaning quickly flooded into his consciousness.

The content is only two words: yes.

"What is this Nima's answer?"

Dongfang Shuo rubbed his forehead, feeling a little pain in his skull.

If he knew who had replied to him, he would have to screw off the other party's head and kick it as a ball.

And just as he was going crazy, the light spots on the jade pendant began to flicker again.

"News again?" Dongfang Shuo was stunned.

Then, spiritual power poured in, and the meaning returned.

The content of this time is:It's the slave family who sends the news to the son.,If you want to twist your head, please poop.,But is the son willing?

After knowing the content, Ji Zhaoning's shallow smile also appeared in Dongfang Shuo's mind, fresh and elegant, but dignified and demure, and his appearance lingered in Dongfang Shuo's mind for a long time.

"Reluctantly, reluctantly. ”

Dongfang Shuo sighed heavily, but his back was also slightly cold.

Could it be that this guy will not be able to read minds for thousands of miles?

Obviously being in the imperial city, but being able to know the mind of Dongfang Shuo, who is far away in the spiritual realm, is really terrifying.

After calming down, Dongfang Shuo sent another message, he asked: Can you give me a name?

This time, the message came back quickly: No, because it's not within your conditions.

"It's a shame to think about. ”

Dongfang Shuo sighed.

But then, he sent a message to the jade side: But if you don't tell me, it's hard for me to do it, in case it hurts my own people.

And the jade head replied: Then please kill the five people together.

After getting the news, the corners of Dongfang Shuo's mouth twitched.

He said: Is this what you should say, if the person under your hand knows, I'm afraid I'm going to cry and faint.

She said: The person who did this was no different from death by revealing his identity, and the people who did things for me had already come to their senses. However, if the son is willing to be a slave, then there is no need to have such an awareness, but the slave family is willing to die for the son.

"This vixen is seducing me?" Dongfang Shuo was stunned and threw away the jade in his hand.

Looking at the jade that fell on the table, Dongfang Shuo sighed heavily.

Although he couldn't see the expression on Ji Zhaoning's face through the jade, and he didn't know what she was thinking, Dongfang Shuo still felt that this woman was a little scary.

Her closeness for no reason made it difficult for Dongfang Shuo to let down his vigilance.

I always feel that I have been seen through by her, and she has other plans.
