II. Tasks

The guards of the imperial city are not strict, probably because the people live and work in peace and contentment, Bi Guichen sat in the carriage, looking at the bustling streets and the happy people, a sadness rose from his heart. Maybe in a few days, these harmonies will no longer exist. Many times, ignorance and unawareness are bliss.

"Return to dust, let's find a place to live first." Lihai came over and interrupted her sadness.

"No, you live outside the city." Bi Guichen thought for a while, "I'll go find an inn to live alone." ”

"No, let Master know that if I let you act alone, it is estimated that my life will not be guaranteed." Lihai resolutely opposed, this girl is a dumbfounder, don't look at her to see feng shui, but ordinary personnel handling, she is basically an idiot.

"I don't do anything, I'm just staying for one night."

"You can't be left alone outside anyway, someone has to follow you. ...... like you who can't take care of themselves"

"You can't take care of yourself!" Bi Guichen interrupted him, eager to step forward and cover his mouth. How can it be said in public that she can't take care of herself?

"Okay, why don't I stay in the city with you and let them go outside the city and wait for news." Lihai thought about it and felt that this decision was very good, and they could pretend to be husband and wife or something, and he had long wanted to take advantage of this.

"What are you thinking?" Bi Guichen was helpless and lowered his voice, "You are going to enter the palace tonight to investigate, and you must assign tasks to them, so it is more convenient for you to be together." I'm in town to hear more about it, which is why I didn't choose the Departure Branch. In fact, she still has something to say, there are many people, once the assassination fails, it is best not to involve leaving the door.

"Is it really that urgent?" Lihai didn't understand that assassination is a delicate job, and it takes all aspects to be well prepared in order to hit the mission in one hit. For such an important assassination, it will take several days to prepare, but it seems that Bi Guichen will have to complete it all in these two days.

"Yes." Bi Guichen is reluctant to say more, the stakes are high. The less people know about the plan, the less they will be implicated.

Bi Guichen has always thought of Master's teachings recently, and she doesn't know what special meaning there is, she knows that this move will bring earth-shaking changes, maybe Master has already calculated it back then, so she instilled the concept of her family and country. Which is more important, home or country, or the world? She has always been unable to understand that even if Master's truth is so deep, she always feels that everything is complementary to each other.

Lihai took his brother out of the city, and Bi Guichen drove alone to a small alley with a back to the bustling street, got out of the carriage, and knocked on a carved wooden door.

The door creaked open, and she dodged in, and inside it was a young girl.

"Xiaoyu, how is Master doing?"

"The old man is okay, he is still playing around when he is old, and I learned that the commission you received this time is not simple, let me take a look."

"I didn't want to take it either, but I thought too much about it at the time......"

"You are right, the old man said that the emperor star is about to fall, and there will be changes in the country of the underworld."

"Will it really fall?" Bi Guichen relaxed as if he had arrived at home, and drank the tea on the table happily.

Xiaoyu grew up with her, and she was a little distressed to look at her tired expression. This girl could have waited by the old man's side as carefree as her, but talented people are destined to be extraordinary, Bi Guichen has been observing the sky since he was a child, and he has been with the old man for a long time, and he is proficient in divination. Later, the old man told her to go alone, saying that if a person with this talent could not help others, he was afraid that he would be in trouble.

Poor Bi Guichen was only eighteen years old and wandering alone, and Xiao Yu occasionally thought that although the old man had seen through the world, he was sometimes too indifferent. It's just that on this mission, the old man asked her to come over to help Bi Guichen, saying that this girl might be killed. Needless to say, of course, it is a disaster of death, dare to assassinate the emperor, she is dead.

"The old man said, you are afraid that this time you will be more than lucky."

"When the emperor star falls, I will definitely die. I want it to not fall. Bi Guichen was stunned, and returned to his usual lukewarmness. After being alone for three years, everyone regarded her as an omnipotent god, and no one gossiped with her, so gradually she became less talkative.

"Don't fall?" Xiao Yu doesn't know how capable Bi Guichen is now, but how can manpower stop the stars from moving?

Bi Guichen was cold-hearted, thinking about the hexagram that he took before going out a few days ago, for the sake of the hexagram on the lower gen, it was really to let her retreat in the face of difficulties and protect her life. In this way, there is also an unreachable place for manpower?

"By the way, the topographic map of the palace that asked you to help check a few days ago, okay?"

"Guichen, you don't understand what the old man means, he is letting you protect yourself. Even if you organized this assassination attempt, as long as you don't show up, your subordinates will not say that it was your plan, no one will know about you, and even if it fails or the matter is revealed, you will not be involved. This is also the meaning of the departed master. Xiao Yu looked cautious, she could help them, but she wouldn't give the topographic map to Bi Guichen.

The meaning of the old man and the master of the door is very clear, sacrificing all the deployments in the imperial city, but also to protect Bi Guichen.

That night, Bi Guichen lay on the bed for a long time and couldn't sleep, she was thinking about how to keep Lihai and his brother, otherwise she would be burdened with dozens of life debts for the rest of her life, how would she live?

She had already planned that the emperor would be able to leave a life no matter what, but the emperor star was about to fall, indicating that there were very powerful forces around the emperor who were ready to move. So the emperor's danger should come from his side, how to save this? She's one head and two big.

In the middle of the night, she heard the sound of Xiaoyu going out, she should have gone to send a topographic map to Lihai. Doesn't this girl know that the Departure Branch can get a more detailed topographic map? She thought about getting up again, and felt that things were not easy. Xiaoyu's kung fu is not weak, she can't keep up, but she knows where to live from the sea. A god operator, still a girl, can't go alone without some ability. She plucked a leaf and put it to her lips, blew it softly, and with a brief whistle, a multicolored bird rested on her shoulder.

It was a parrot, Bi Guichen whispered something to it, it barked softly, and obediently led the way in front.

Lihai and his detachment did not go to the farmhouse to spend the night in order to hide people's eyes, they found an abandoned temple and packed up and lived in. Although Biguichen asked for a quick solution, they did not dare to be careless. The branch in the Imperial City was sent a complete topographical map of the Imperial Palace, including a timetable for the inspection of the palace guards. The emperor's bedroom is naturally guarded by layers, and besides, I heard that the emperor has been sick recently, and there are especially many people entering and leaving his bedroom.

Lihai knew that this was a tricky business, and he did not dare to be careless, nor did he want his brothers to lose their lives. He did not approve of taking this business from the very beginning, yes, any assassination in his eyes was just business. What the world is, the fortune of the country, has nothing to do with him.
