Chapter 277: Ill-intentioned
The night rain is stopping! The road by the lake is still muddy, but the bluestone slab ground of the North Foot Academy is as clean as new clothes washed by the rain.
A swordsman dressed in a cloak knocked softly on the door of the academy.
The old man guarding the door opened the latch with a lantern, and the door squeaked open.
"Who is it so late? Huh! Layman, you don't seem to be from the academy? ”
The swordsman took off his robe, revealing a white robe, he held a piece of jade pendant in his hand and said: "In the house of Mu Lei, the prince of Xia Weiguo, Mu Bai is also." ”
When the old man at the gate heard this, he said, "What is the reason why the layman is visiting late at night? ”
Mu Bai said: "Please take me to see Liu Jiaoxi, I have something important to tell you!" ”
The old man at the door said, "If there is anything to talk about, it doesn't matter if you talk about it tomorrow!" ”
Mu Bai's face sank and said, "Their family is going to die!" ”
The old man guarding the door was frightened when he heard this, his life was at stake, he didn't dare to hesitate, and led Mu Bai to the east garden of the academy.
Liu Jiaoxi is worried about his daughter's safety, so he has not rested.
The old man guarding the door saw that the light was still on in Liu Jiaoxi's room, so he said to Mu Bai: "Go ahead, the room with the light on is Liu Jiaoxi's bedroom." ”
In the East Garden, Mu Bai felt a little uneasy as soon as he stepped into Liu Jiaoxi's bedroom, and the room was silent, but there were several people inside.
It turned out that Fushengye listened to Liu Cangshan's words and took him to Liu Jiaoxi's place to learn more, and through the conversation with Liu Jiaoxi, Fushengye felt more and more that the sudden appearance of the killer was strange. He stretched out his index finger and shook it from side to side, made a gesture to silence everyone, and fell into deep thought.
He stood tall under the beams of the room in a black robe, his face in a golden mask raised slightly, pretending to be in deep thought, as if waiting for something.
As soon as Mu Bai walked into the house, he saw the mysterious floating leaves, he thought that he had found the wrong room, and was about to leave, when Cheng Huan suddenly appeared outside the door to block his retreat, stretched out his arm and said, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Mu Bai said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm looking for Liu Jiaoxi in the academy." ”
Cheng Huan smiled: "Liu Jiaoxi is inside." ”
Mu Bai had no choice but to come to the room again, and he was a little cramped and uneasy in front of everyone.
Fushengye suddenly ended his meditative state, looked at Mu Bai and said, "What is the reason why this friend is suddenly visiting?" ”
Mu Bai was impressed by the temperament of the floating leaves. At this time, Fushengye's vision has already encompassed half of the world, and the few bloody battles he has experienced are few of the world's powerhouses that can match him.
The temperament of a superior exuded by him is natural, and this is the result of the difference in the realm of character.
Mu Bai cautiously saluted the floating leaves: "I am the prince of the country, Mu Leimenke, known as Mu Bai." ”
When Liu Jiaoxi heard that Mu Bai reported to his home, he stepped forward and said, "You are Mu Bai?" Let me ask you if my daughter Rose is with you? ”
Mu Bai shuddered when he heard Liu Jiaoxi's fierce questioning, and then he calmed down and said: "Rose is very good now, she knows that there is danger at home, so let me help you get out of trouble." ”
Liu Cangshan said: "Where is my sister now?" Why didn't she return for a few days? How did she learn that there was danger in her home? ”
Mu Bai said: "She and I were late in the lake that day and couldn't return to Gaocheng, so we went to Weiguo, and since we arrived in Weiguo, I went to the imperial capital to play for two days." ”
Liu Jiaoxi pointed at Mu Bai and said: "What is the relationship between you and Rose, run around with her like this, and if you don't run away, will she be criticized?" How will she marry in the future? ”
Mu Baidao: "We have already made a private decision for life if we are dissatisfied with my uncle, but my family is poor and I can't get a decent bride price, so I didn't come to the door to propose marriage for a while." ”
Liu Jiaoxi said: "If you can't get the bride price, say it clearly!" Do you have a bride price for abducting and selling my daughter? ”
Mu Baidao: "I have no long things, only a sword, but I have no distractions, only one person, I am willing to raise my sword and swear to repel the killer as my meeting gift." I hope you can admit me as a son-in-law! ”
Liu Jiaoxi said angrily: "Are you taking advantage of others? Tell Rose to go home and then deliberate! ”
Mu Baidao: "How many killers are staring at the Liu family now, the Liu family has become the most unsafe place." What good would it do her to let Rose go home at this time. Speaking of such a bloody thing as fighting, of course the girl's house should stay away, after tonight she will appear tomorrow. ”
Liu Cangshan saw Mu Bai's sincere words, and persuaded his father: "Just promise him, we need a helper, since we are willing to fight together, we are a family, and my sister also likes him!" ”
Mu Bai suddenly lowered his head and cried.
Liu Cangshan said: "Hey! Why are you still crying, tears can't drive away the killer! ”
Mu Baidao: "At this moment, my eyes are full of tears, because I have suffered too many grievances before!" ”
Fushengye said: "Do you know the origin of those killers? ”
Mu Baidao: "I also know some friends among the retainers of Gongzi Murray, and occasionally I hear some secret things, but they are not my responsibility, and I don't know much." My friend speculated that the Assassins might have been coming for my father-in-law! ”
Liu Jiaoxi said: "Coming at me, who have I offended by teaching and educating people all day long?" ”
Mu Bai said: "Those killers are likely to have been hired by foreigners, and the other party paid a lot of money. I've used my connections to get some deal with the killer organization, it may take some time, and they won't be bothering us again tonight. But it's hard to say whether the mastermind behind the scenes will give up. ”
Liu Cangshan said: "Uncle Li said that there are at least a dozen killers in ambush near my bamboo building, and he can deal with seven or eight at most by himself, and it will not be a problem for me to deal with two or three." Are you okay with nearly a dozen killers? ”
Mu Bai said: "I will find a few more friends to come over and make a strong noise." ”
A soft voice sounded outside the door: "No need, the matter is urgent, let's go to Pinghu Villa to kill the killer in one fell swoop, and then go to the imperial capital to take refuge." If the killer is entangled, we can only ask the sect for help. ”
Cheng Huan opened the door curtain, and Li Zhien came to the house as he spoke.
Floating leaves nodded slightly at her.
Liu Jiaoxi said: "Brother and sister, you are already pregnant, how can you go to force the gangsters again, in case there is a mistake, I can't bear it, big brother!" ”
Li Zhien said: "How can I bear to let my child's father face danger alone. It's a pity that our two swords are one, and there is only one left! ”
Liu Jiaoxi said: "It's all my fault, alas! ”
Liu Cangshan said: "Don't be afraid, you use my sword, I will see the killer snatch his sword later." ”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Fushengye said to Li Zhien: "I'll lend you a sword!" Catch the sword! ”
As he spoke, he handed over the samurai sword he had decorated to Lee Zhien.
Li Zhien always felt that he was familiar with Fushengye, but he couldn't remember seeing it there.
She took the samurai sword of the floating leaf and said, "Thank you, Lord Shouza!" ”
Fushengye said: "I'm new here, it's inconvenient to shoot, you should be careful." ”
Li Zhien said: "I'll understand! ”
Fushengye looked at Li Zhien's words with resolute courage, and he couldn't help but show his approval.
He said to Li Zhien: "When you return safely, I will hold a banquet here to entertain you, and then we will have a good time." ”
Li Zhien said: "It's an honor to be invited by the first adult! Goodbye! ”
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, took Liu Cangshan, Mu Bai and Liu Jiaoxi, and left the academy and went to the villa in Pinghu Town.
Fushengye looked at the four people who left in a hurry, and said to Cheng Huan beside him: "Although Li Zhien is a woman, she acts vigorously and resolutely, she is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows go!" ”
Cheng Huan replied respectfully beside Fushengye: "We are now at the time of employing people, if the adults favor her, then the subordinates can try to include her in the organization." ”
Fushengye said: "I always want her to survive tonight!" ”
Cheng Huan said: "Those killers outside the door are organized by Silver Wing, and Silver Wing also has some dealings with our Painting Heart Workshop, we can put pressure on the killer leader to give up this business." ”
Fushengye was surprised and said, "Really? Our Painting Heart Workshop already has such a ability? ”
Cheng Huan said: "This is all the credit of Mrs. Hua, oh no, this is the first adult, you have a good leadership!" ”
Fusheng Ye laughed and said, "Ah Huan, how can you learn to pat on the back." ”
Ah Huan smiled awkwardly when she heard this.
Fushengye said: "However, if you don't pat yourself, I don't know that I also like to be slapped on the back!" Actually, I'm not too worried about those killers, I'm worried about the people next to her. ”
Cheng Huan said: "Does the adult mean Mu Bai?" ”
Fushengye nodded: "I heard him speak, his words flickered, his heart rhythm and language rhythm were uneven, I'm afraid what he said was three points true and seven points false, so what was his purpose in deceiving people?" What is he hiding? Is his secret plotting against someone? ”
Cheng Huan said: "I'll let the headquarters check!" ”
After he finished speaking, he took out a small letter mouse from his cuff, put it to his ear, and actually muttered a beast language.
Fusheng Ye was surprised: "You have also learned some beast language!" ”
Cheng Huan said: "Mrs. Hua taught us a few things. ”
Every time he heard Cheng Huan call Huaxin Mrs. Hua, he always felt a little strange, but considering that Cheng Huan might have been used to this, he didn't stop it.
Later, Cheng Huan received a reply from the little letter mouse.
Cheng Huan patiently listened to the message sent back by the little letter mouse, and his face was a little cloudy.
Later, he put away the letter rat and said to Fushengye: "Sure enough, Mu Bai bought the news about Li Zhiyu and Li Zhien's origin from the Painting Heart Workshop before. And there are indications that the behind-the-scenes hires of these killers are likely to come from the doormen in the Mansion of the Prince of Weiguo. However, killer organizations are generally very strict about employers' information, and it takes some time to find out. Cher is in charge of this, and she has already gone to the killer leader to negotiate the conditions. ”
Fushengye said: "That's good! It seems that what we see about this matter is just the tip of the iceberg! The hidden crisis may be wide-ranging. ”
Cheng Huan said again: "The master can rest assured, in the imperial capital, the Painting Heart Workshop is not afraid of any force. ”
Fusheng Ye said: "Isn't the emperor afraid?" ”
Cheng Huan said: "Let's not provoke him!" ”
Fushengye said again: "Then if he comes to provoke us?" ”
Cheng Huan hesitated for a while and said, "Then you can only go out of the mountain!" ”
Floating Sheng Ye laughed when he heard this: "Ah Huan! I find that you are getting more and more able to talk when you arrive in the imperial capital! ”
