Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Undercurrent Is Turbulent

The news of the assassination of Lord Shi in the Buddhist temple spread all over Yecheng in one morning. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

This news instantly shocked the whole city, and the military was even more furious. After Gao Chang and Li Lingyue returned home safely, the Assassin's Mansion immediately ordered the closure of the gate of Yecheng, and all outsiders in the city's inns, green buildings, temples and other public places, all outsiders must check their identities one by one.

Gao Chang stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands, his face pale. The assassination annoyed him, especially since it was clear that the target was not only himself, but also his wife and the unborn child in her womb. He admired those enemies who fought against him on the battlefield, but for these enemies who would only use indiscriminate means, Gao Chang only had the idea of breaking him into pieces.

Gao Chang moved to the door and coldly ordered, "Go and call Guo Jia and Li Yuanfang!" "Since Gao Chang settled in Jizhou, in order to develop, he specially set up an intelligence organization - Secret Guard. appointed Guo Jia as the leader of the dark guard, and Li Yuanfang appointed him as Guo Jia's deputy because of his spy talent attribute, responsible for training the dark guard!

After a while, Guo Jia and Li Yuanfang hurriedly walked into the room, knelt down on one knee and saluted, "See the lord for your humble duties!" ”

"Get up!"

Gao Chang pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you have any progress in this assassination case?" “

Guo Jia nodded. "Although the dozen or so Assassins killed themselves, based on their appearances, we know from the soldiers defending the city that they had all scattered into the city in the past few days, using very ordinary identities and using swords that deliberately sharpened the names of the forges. There were no clues from the body, so we investigated from other sources and found clues. ”

"Keep talking!" Gao Chang looked at him.

Guo Jia sorted out his thoughts and continued: "It was a temporary decision for the lord and his wife to go to Jinxuan Temple to offer incense, except for a few people, no one knew about it at all, even the coachman only knew that the lord was going to incense after the lord got into his carriage, so how did the assassin know?" ”

Gao Chang walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice: "I know that I am going to incense with you, madam, Chen Xuanli, and the old housekeeper Gao Quan, who has been with my father for more than ten years, there should be no problem, then there is only one possibility, there is a problem with the monks over there in Jinxuan Temple!" ”

Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "My lord, I have asked the secret guard to stare at the Jinxuan Temple for twelve hours, presumably the assassins in the temple will always show their feet!" ”

Gao Chang thought for a while and said: "Well done, monitor carefully, if you find Neiying, don't easily startle the snake, and catch the real behind-the-scenes in one fell swoop." ”

"Obey!"

Guo Jia and Li Yuanfang bowed down.

Gao Chang took a long breath and sat down on a chair to rest for a while, but at this time, the voice of the system suddenly sounded, "Congratulations to the host for escaping the assassination and killing the assassin on the spot, and the reward force is increased by two, and the current force has risen to 89." ”

。。。。。。。。。。。

Jinxuan Temple, at noon, Huineng sneaked out of the temple gate. Riding a donkey in the direction of Yecheng.

About half an hour or so, he came to a relatively remote alley in the south of Yecheng City. He looked left and right, found no abnormality, turned over and got off the donkey, hurriedly walked into the alley, until the end, the innermost part of the alley is a small quadrangle house, the alley is dark, faintly visible a door, he knocked on the door rhythmically, a moment of footsteps in the yard, the door 'creaked! With a bang, he sneaked in.

。。。。。。。。。。。

"You can't talk and don't count!"

Hui Neng in the room was very annoyed, and shouted at the woman sitting opposite the table according to the table, "After the good thing is done, pay all the remaining eight hundred taels of silver, why is it only fifty taels?" ”

The light in the room was very dim, the curtains were drawn, and there was a young woman sitting opposite Huineng, although it was only faint, but according to the exquisite curve, it could be seen that this woman must be the color of the city. At this moment, she quietly opened her mouth and said to Huineng: "But the matter didn't work out, our people are dead!" ”

"That's your incompetence, what does it have to do with me?"

Perhaps because there was a woman sitting on the other side, Huineng's voice was extremely high, and he couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and yelled again: "You must give me the silver, otherwise I will sue you to the government." ”

"Poof!"

Huineng opened his mouth wide and looked at his body in surprise and despair, a sword had pierced through him. He limply reached out to grab the woman opposite, but in the end he didn't catch anything, 'Bang! A corpse fell to the ground.

The woman seemed to be taken aback, and said dissatisfiedly: "Senior brother, why did you kill him casually." ”

The man he called his senior brother said in a very cold tone: "He has already given birth to a betrayal heart, and such a person can no longer be used." ”

The woman was still dissatisfied and said, "Then you can't just kill him!" The purpose of our Taiping Dao is to help the people of the world and save the people of the world from the hands of the mediocre and incompetent Han Emperor, how can we kill people so simply? “

The man's tone was still very cold, without a hint of human breath, "Zhang Ning, although you are the master's daughter, don't forget, the master said, everything is up to me!" “

After saying that, he seemed to say to the woman, and seemed to say to himself: "Originally, Hebei was chaotic, as long as we climbed the Taiping Road and shouted, the people were bound to respond, but since this Gao Chang came, exterminated a large number of bandits, and divided the land to these people, who is willing to cause trouble with us when these people's lives are settled, I have no choice but to assassinate Gao Chang, but unfortunately it must be more difficult to take his life again if I miss this time!" “

What the man didn't notice, however, was that on the roof where he was, there were two ears listening quietly to their conversation...
