Early the next morning, everyone packed up their things and set off. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

They were going to escort Qiao Shan back to his home, and when they got there, they would complete their mission, and now they were about to enter the territory of Yongzhou, and according to the current speed of the people, even if they walked very slowly, they would be able to get there tomorrow.

With last night's attack, Xiao Bai and the three of them were very cautious all the way, and they became frightened at the slightest hint of trouble.

The water demon told them to take it as easy as possible, so that the grass and trees would only let them run out of physical strength early, and there would be no benefit at all.

Since the two assassins have already come last night, I'm afraid the chance of encountering the assassins below is much smaller, but the water demon still doesn't dare to relax his spirit, the strength of the two assassins last night is both B-level swordsmen, and the task they took is a C-level mission.

The water demon pretended to be casual as he walked, turned his head sideways and glanced at Qiao Shan, could it be that this guy was hiding something from them?

"Johnson—"

The water demon put his hands in his pockets and shouted softly.

Qiao Shan, who had been keeping his head down, stopped, turned his head to look at the water demon, and said softly, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"There is one thing that must be made clear to you, if the employer conceals the true situation about the mission," the water demon said in a cold voice, "We have the right to terminate the mission, the two assassins last night were not easy, you should think clearly, some things should be said earlier." ”

Qiao Shan's ten fingers were crossed together, constantly rubbing.

"I ...... I do have something to hide from you," Qiao Shan raised his head and said softly, "but that was also a last resort!" ”

Xiao Bai and the three of them also stopped and looked at Qiao Shan one after another.

"It seems that it is necessary to explain the matter to us," the water demon looked at Qiao Shan and said coldly, "This is not only related to the success or failure of the mission, but also related to the safety of each of us, I must understand what other hostile forces will appear below." ”

Xiao Bai clenched his fists, looked at Qiao Shan and said, "Yes, if you don't tell us about it, how can we help you?" Concealment is a big no-no in the execution of the mission, and perhaps what you know is very important to us. ”

Qiao Shan raised his head and looked into the distance, and said softly: "This matter is a long story, if you don't dislike it, just listen to my nag a few more words." ”

"Let's talk about it." Gu Changan said coldly.

"That's right, I was born in a scholarly family, my parents were not in good health, and they left early, and my eldest brother brought me up." Qiao Shan said softly, "The eldest brother is a businessman, the business is doing very well, and the family is very happy after getting married, but it was ...... last year."

Xiao Bai looked at Qiao Shan and stopped, and said a little anxiously: "What happened last year?" Readers are troublesome and spittering. ”

"Xiao Bai!" The water demon glared at him for a moment, and said softly: "Qiao Shan, don't worry, you speak slowly." ”

Qiao Shan nodded and said: "Last year, my eldest brother didn't know where to meet a woman, that woman looked charming and charming, like a fox, my eldest brother seemed to be hooked by her, all day long, divorced for her, and then married the fox spirit to enter the door." ”

"And then?" Xiaoxue asked out loud, "What happened?" ”

"My eldest brother's marriage to her has been decided, I thought to myself, forget it, as long as this woman doesn't cause trouble in the future, she can barely accept her." Qiao Shan choked up when he said this, "But on the night of the wedding, my eldest brother ...... My eldest brother is dead! ”

"How so?!" Xiao Bai looked at Qiao Shan with wide eyes, and said, "Is that woman harmful?!" ”

Qiao Shan shook his head and said: "A doctor went to check and found no problems, the cause of death was excessive drinking, which caused alcohol poisoning, but on the day of the wedding, my eldest brother didn't drink much alcohol at all." ”

"What does this have to do with your assassination?" The water demon pointed out the crux of the problem in one sentence.

"That's right, after my eldest brother left, there was a lot of property left in the family," Qiao Shan clenched his fists with some resentment, and said: "I still have a second brother, but he doesn't do his job all day, and after the eldest brother left, he not only didn't feel a little sad, but actually fought with that woman for the family property. ”

"Who sent the man who chased you?" Xiao Bai opened his mouth and asked, "Is that the woman?" ”

Qiao Shan shook his head, clenched his fists very sadly, and said, "No, I think it should be someone from my second brother's faction." ”

"How so?" Xiaoxue was stunned, "Isn't he your brother?" ”

"That's true, but you don't know what kind of person my second brother is," Qiao Shan said softly, "I have been studying since I was a child, so I can't see through many things, my second brother is different, he has mixed up in the market from childhood to adulthood, and he has no feelings for me and my eldest brother at all, and the reason why I escaped is because I found out that he wanted to kill me." ”

"I see, so your real purpose isn't just for us to send you home, right?" The water demon nodded and spoke, "If that's the case, we're literally sending you to death right now." ”

Qiao Shan nodded and said, "That's right, I've figured it out, and people like my second brother can't explain the truth clearly, so I want to ask you for help." ”

"How can I help?" The water demon's expression was a little cold, "This is far beyond the scope of the mission. ”

"I know it's a bit difficult for you, and that's why I'm hiding the difficulty of the mission," Qiao Shan said, "After I found out that my second brother wanted to poison me, I escaped from home, and then I lived a wandering life until I heard about the Sword Mansion in the Water Village. ”

Facing everyone's gaze, Qiao Shan looked a little unnatural, he raised his head to look at everyone, and said softly: "I took out all my money, but it was only enough for the honorarium of the C-level mission, at that time, my second brother already knew that I came to the Water Village, and I knew that he would definitely not let me go, so I could only temporarily hide the truth of the matter." ”

"It's good that it's us, it would be bad if we sent a C-rank swordsman." The water demon said coldly, "Don't do such things in the future, it will hurt you and the people who are on the mission." ”

Qiao Shan immediately nodded violently, looked at the water demon with a very eager look and said, "I want to ask you to help me and help me regain my eldest brother's family business!" I don't want to see my eldest brother's hard-earned family business taken away by that vixen, and I don't want to see my second brother lose the family business! I promise you, after the deed is done, there will be great thanks! ”

The water demon looked at Qiao Shan coldly, and said with some disdain: "I can promise you things, but the last sentence is troublesome to take back, our swordsmen are not performing tasks for money, please don't use money to insult a swordsman's personality." ”

"Because money has never been the standard for measuring swordsmen!"
