Chapter 17 The Rivers and Lakes

He Ping's answer surprised Xue Ling a little.

But it's a bit reasonable.

"That's right." Fang Bei said on the side at this time, "Regarding the return of this mission, I apply to give this soft sword to Lin Xue for self-defense. ”

I had heard Fang Bei say this in the mountain temple before, but at that time, Xue Ling didn't care too much, and it was a very difficult thing to practice mastery of Qimen weapons like soft swords, so Xue Ling finally took it out as a token to kill Ning Huaiyuan and handed it to He Ping, but he didn't expect Fang Bei to mention it again in front of He Ping, and handed over this soft sword to himself for use.

He Ping nodded: "Yes." ”

Xue Ling was incredulous: "Is it really possible?" ”

This soft sword looks very valuable.

"The capture of our assassin mission does not need to be handed over to the organization." He Ping said quietly: "After all, the stronger the enemy's strength and family background, the more difficult it will be for us to assassinate, and naturally we will have to charge a higher harvest." ”

Looking at Xue Ling's expression, He Ping continued to say lightly: "Of course, if some property is not suitable for our use, we can also present it to the organization and obtain a certain amount of assassin points to use, or sell it on the black market to obtain a certain amount of silver and two uses." ”

"By the way, how many silver taels does Ning Huaiyuan have?" He Ping asked.

"A rough inventory." Xue Ling said honestly: "The broken silver and copper coins add up to about five taels, and the silver tickets are large and small, and they look less than two hundred taels in total." ”

He Ping nodded, this net worth is definitely not all of Ning Huaiyuan's belongings, but even so, it is not trivial.

An ordinary chivalrous man who walks the rivers and lakes is a hero with a maximum of fifty or sixty taels of silver, and Ning Huaiyuan must have other inputs, which can be regarded as a fat sheep.

"Is there anything else you have to report?" He Ping asked.

Xue Ling thought for a moment, then shook his head: "No." ”

He Ping nodded: "Then you can go, I have something to talk to Fang Bei about alone." ”

Xue Ling glanced at Fang Bei, nodded, and turned around and walked out of the room, leaving only the pair of assassins and apprentices on the second floor.

It wasn't until Xue Ling's footsteps could no longer be heard that He Ping looked at Fang Bei: "How do you feel about Lin Xue's performance?" ”

Fang Bei nodded: "As a bee wing, she is qualified in terms of both psychological quality and performance. ”

"But what?" He Ping asked.

"But I'm afraid she's not just a bee wing." Fang Bei smiled and said, "But I don't care what she is. ”

"As long as she doesn't do anything harmful to us, I'll act as if nothing happened."

He Ping sighed: "It's not like you. ”

"That's right." Fang Bei nodded: "But saving people is to save them to the end." ”

"If she wants to live, then there is a place in this world where she can live."

He Ping nodded, and then looked at Fang Bei: "How is Ning Huaiyuan's kung fu?" ”

"Kung Fu is very handsome, so-so, with the strength of a third-grade master, and he is in the top twenty of the Huashan faction." Fang Bei said: "But he has learned a lot, and many martial arts are not visible, I suspect that he has something to do with the Western Regions Demon Gate, I kill him, I'm afraid the Demon Gate will come over to investigate." ”

"Did you leave any clues?" He Ping frowned and asked.

"There should be no clues, but Ning Huaiyuan died at the boundary of Los Angeles, which can't be hidden." Fang Bei said: "But I can't stop completing this task because he is involved, in short, I will do my best." ”

The two men faced each other, silent for a moment.

He Pingcai continued to ask, "How about Ning Huaiyuan's sword?" ”

"The swordsmanship is so-so, and it doesn't help my sword much, but I still try to look at it twice as much as possible to make sure I haven't missed it." Fang Bei said.

He Ping nodded: "How did you feel about the first mission?" ”

"It's easier than you think." Fang Bei said.

"You've always been too cautious." He Ping shook his head and said.

Fang Bei shook his head at the same time: "It's not too cautious, this is what Sister Ping taught me." ”

"And."

"I want to live."

"I don't want to die."

"So, in order to survive, I have to be better prepared to deal with every crisis anytime and anywhere."

He Ping looked at him: "After all, there is a crisis in this world that you can't deal with." ”

"Then I'll try to get stronger." Fang Bei said with a smile.

Outside the window, there was a drizzle of rain and dark clouds shrouded the bright moon.

……

……

Huashan, Shaanxi, pines and cypresses are evergreen, and the mountain roads are rugged.

Yue Pingshan looked at the Huashan Mountain Road that was already close in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his chest.

Although he didn't see Ning Huaiyuan's body, everything that happened that night gave him reason to believe that Ning Huaiyuan would definitely die.

Otherwise, he would have no reason to survive.

However, how to go back to explain to the division commander of the same door, he also thought about it along the way, and now Huashan is in front of him, Rao is Yue Pingshan has deep experience in walking the rivers and lakes, and at this time there is also a feeling of returning home.

And at this time, a white horse galloped in front of him, grabbed the horse in front of Yue Pingshan, turned over and jumped down: "Senior Brother Hou Yongyan has seen Senior Brother Yue, Senior Brother Yue has chased and killed traitors all the way, and he has made great contributions, so he has come to greet Senior Brother Triumphant." ”

Yue Pingshan smiled, stretched out his hand to Hou Yongyan and asked for a bag of water, drank most of the bag in one go, and then put down the water bag: "I have a story along the way, but for more details, I have to wait for the mountain to go up to the master Bingming, and ask the junior brother to take a ride." ”

On that day, news came out from Huashan that Ning Huaiyuan, a traitorous disciple, was killed by Yue Pingshan and a hidden beggar hero in the Luocheng Mountain Temple.

Ten days later, the list of rivers and lakes of the hive was updated, and the beggar hero was among the miscellaneous, ranking seventy-fourth on the second list of the rivers and lakes, and the remark was that he was a master of the third grade.

……

……

In the Western Regions, thousands of miles away, news spread more slowly.

On the Gobi Desert swept by wind and sand, there is an oasis with fertile water and grass, which is a side hall of the Demon Gate of the Western Regions.

In the side hall, the sad old man twisted the paper in his hand into a line, and the power shot out, directly to the opposite side, and the paper strip made of mulberry paper was as strong as steel after being injected with deep internal force, and it was able to completely submerge into the brass pillar.

"Rubbish!" "Bold!" "How can it be!"

The sad old man with long eyebrows like snow scolded repeatedly, and his voice echoed in the side hall.

At this time, a delicate voice sounded softly: "Master, what news provoked you to be so angry?" ”

"Could it be that my cheap senior brother is causing trouble again in the Central Plains?"

The sad old man looked at the graceful woman in the shadows and sneered, "He can't get into trouble anymore, because he's dead." ”
