These people transferred the best mutton and bones to the Great Elder and the Holy Maiden, and only then continued to divide the rest of the meat and bones according to rank.

They munched on mutton, drank wine, and ate it with pieces of pancake dipped in broth, and the saint and her maids looked pure and beautiful, but they ate about the same.

No one spoke during the meal, and everyone went all out to deal with the mutton and bones in the dishes, and the bones were removed cleanly, and they were thrown to the hungry dogs, and the dogs had to run away in tears, it was too clean.

Eventually, the meat was gone, the bones were gnawed clean, and everyone began to drink mutton soup.

The sheep stewed in this big iron pot has basically been eaten, and these people still feel a little underfed, after all, people who are used to eating openly on the prairie have already opened their appetites, and they are really not used to entering the mainland.

"Great Elder, do you think that our five holy envoys will be pitted by Luo Devils, they generally won't take over the work in private, unless they believe that doing so will be beneficial to this sect." The saint's mind was obviously not idle when she ate meat.

She entered the mainland this time just to familiarize herself with the situation, and the saintess also needs to enter the red dust to experience, and the great elder is the one who protects her. The investigation into the deaths of the five Assassins was only tasked with when they were approaching the mainland.

"It's hard to say. There's no point in speculating about these things, so we'll know when the information is gathered. The Great Elder continued to drink the old wine, obviously very fond of this very ordinary old wine.

"Great Elder, shall we spend the night here tonight?" The man next to him asked.

If you want to spend the night here, you also need to arrange vigils and patrols, but in such a small place, how to arrange manpower? Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden should not spend the night in the same room with these laymen.

"I'll leave in the middle of the night. This place is still not safe enough, so I can only hide for a while. The Great Elder said.

He was not afraid, he was chased and killed by the people of the court back then, and he had encountered any situation, if it weren't for the saint who needed protection, he wouldn't have bothered to hide like this.

Although the walls of Beijing are high, they can't stop him, and there are not too many people who can threaten him in this city.

Above, the butcher, his mother-in-law, and his apprentice, gathered around a broken table, eating a sheep's head and four hooves, although they were all good things, but they were not as pleasant as large pieces of meat.

The butcher drank wine alone, imagining that this time there were two big people, and this time the reward must be more than ten times more, and he didn't know the details of these people, but he just regarded this matter as a business, and opened the kiln below to these people, and then provided some food and drink, and he could get a hundred times the silver, and there was no more profitable business in the world, which could be described as a million profits.

The mother-in-law and the apprentice did not speak, this is also the rule, as long as there are guests, the two will become dumb, lest if they say the wrong word, the butcher will not sharpen his knife to the cattle and sheep, but wave it at them.

The apprentice silently finished gnawing on the two sheep's hooves, and then returned to his dark and dilapidated room, and when he closed the door, his eyes suddenly began to glow, like a cat walking in the night.

Few people know that he is still a member of the brocade guard, but he was sent here as an apprentice at a very young age.

In the past, he also found some people from the White Lotus Sect staying here, and after reporting it, they didn't catch anyone on it, they just wanted to put a long line to catch big fish.

"The Great Elder, and the Holy Maiden, these are two big fish." The man trembled with excitement.

He finally saw the hope of liberation, who doesn't want to wear a flying fish suit and carry an embroidered spring knife on the street to show off his might, but he can only be aggrieved and aggrieved here to be beaten and scolded every day, and from time to time to endure the harassment of the * abnormal mother-in-law.

He has already sent out the news, and soon a large group of people and many masters will come here to collect the net, and when that time comes, it will be the day when he will return to the team brilliantly and become famous, and even if he does nothing in the future, this credit will be enough for him to eat for a lifetime.

He knew that the reward of the marquis was too far away from him, and he didn't dream about it, he just fantasized about how much silver he could be rewarded, so that he could buy a mansion in the capital, marry a wife, and take a beautiful concubine, and all the usual fantasy life would really come true.

He took out a sharp knife from under the kang mat, which was used to remove bones, and it was certainly more refreshing to use it to kill people. But he doesn't want to kill, he just wants to defend himself when necessary, he is meticulous, not a master.

"My lord, they haven't come out yet, what should I do?"

In a nearby mansion, the master and family servants were herded into a hall to be strictly guarded, which was temporarily requisitioned by Liu Shouyou.

"Wait a little longer, and if they don't come out in the dead of night, they'll go in." Liu Shouyou was also trembling with excitement, and his voice trembled.

He didn't expect that a nail arranged by the commander of the old brocade guard many years ago played an important role and sent out a message that he couldn't believe.

The old man is seeking the country, this is really true, those old people often think of decades later, which is really admirable.

Now the streets were full of plainclothes of the Jinyi guards, and all those who came in and out were caught and rushed to another requisitioned courtyard to be guarded, and they were not allowed to make any noise or be beheaded.

At this critical moment, Liu Shouyou will never allow anything that may undermine his great achievements to happen.

Fortunately, this is a slum area, there are no powerful people nearby, there are no rich merchants, and there is no person who has to be afraid of Jinyi Wei, all people can be disposed of at will, even if they are killed, it doesn't matter, and the family has to take the silver to ransom the corpse.

"Is the message accurate, has it been confirmed?" Liu Shouyou has asked questions for the third time.

"My lord, there will be no mistake, I have corrected the secret file at the headquarters three times, and there is no mistake." A brocade guard commander pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife and said.

It's not enough just the elite of the Jinyi guard, so Liu Shouyou specially invited four internal guards.

It was these four people who made Liu Shouyou a little nervous, this is a celebrity around the emperor, he can talk to the emperor directly, if the information is wrong and a joke is made, it will reach the emperor's ears tonight.

A large internal guard came over and said, "Lord Liu, don't wait, they won't come out at this time, to prevent them from slipping away from the ground." Let's attack. ”

"Slipping underground?" Liu Shouyou was a little puzzled.

"Lord Liu, this is their usual trick, we have seen it before." It's obviously not the first time that Ouchi has participated in this kind of event.

"Okay, offense." Liu Shouyou gritted his teeth and said.

Although Ouchi's guard has a higher status than him, he is now in charge of the entire operation, and he still has to wait for him to give orders.

With Liu Shouyou's order, dozens of Jinyi guards in civilian clothes who had been ambushed nearby rushed towards the house like tigers, some of them broke into the door, some broke through the window, and even more arrogantly, directly hit the wall and entered.

The butcher and his mother-in-law were cleaning up the dishes, chopsticks, plates and basins that they had collected from the ground, and before they could react to what was going on, they had already been pressed to the ground.

The apprentice rushed out excitedly, brandishing the sharp knife in his hand, and shouted, "You're finally here." ”

He should have revealed his identity when he opened his mouth, but he was so excited that he finally saw his comrades, and he shouted such a sentence, and what was even more inappropriate was that he was still holding a sharp knife in his hand and waving it.

As a result, a sword light swept by, and his head flew up, and then he shouted in mid-air: "My own people." ”

It's a pity it's late.

The people who rushed into the house did not stop, and went straight to the underground manhole, but after rushing in, they were dumbfounded, there were only a few rows of hanging mutton inside, and there was no one.

"My lord, there is no inside." A brocade-clothed guard Qianhu reported to Liu Shouyou, who rushed in with them, with an ugly face.

The four big inner guards outside did not join in the excitement, they occupied four corners around each other, in case a master rushed out.

"Impossible, search carefully." Liu Shouyou shouted.

"Where's our people?" Liu Shouyou shouted.

"This ...... He had a knife in his hand and waved it at us, not revealing his identity. A brocade guard man muttered with a human head.

"Idiot." Liu Shouyou almost went crazy, and he didn't know whether to scold the apprentice or the person who killed the apprentice.

"They are here, and it is impossible for them to fly into the sky, search carefully, and dig three feet into the ground." Liu Shouyou roared loudly.

On the other side, a hundred households of a brocade guard began to ask the butcher, and the butcher was also honest, and when the blade was pressed on his neck, he told the secret room inside, and also provided the method of opening the mechanism.

"Attack it." Liu Shouyou waved his knife and shouted.

Inside, at the same time that Liu Shouyou issued an attack order, the Great Elder sensed it, and what he sensed was the momentum of the four Great Inner Guards.

He didn't dare to use his divine sense to search the surroundings, for fear of being found hiding, and the moment the four Ouchi guards were ready to attack, he released all the momentum around him, and he passively sensed it.

"They're coming, let's go." The Great Elder changed color.

"How is that possible?" The saint is even more discolored.

"Out of the traitor." The Great Elder immediately realized this, but he didn't know that this traitor was actually a fine worker, a spy inserted by the Jinyi Guard.

"The Great Elder and His Highness will go first, and the subordinates and others will break off." The two people beside the Great Elder took the initiative to ask.

"Okay, try to delay for a while, and then escape safely, and I'll let you know the meeting point later." As soon as the Great Elder spoke, he led the Holy Maiden and some of the people to one of the walls inside, and he slapped them a few times, and the wall spun like the one that had come in, revealing a passage inside.

The Great Elder asked one of them to lead the holy maiden and the maid in first, and he stayed outside until all the people who had arranged for him to go had entered, and he was the last to go in.

The wall has not been restored, whether inadvertently or deliberately, but the passage looks like a black hole that can devour people.
