Chapter 266: Mission

Gonggong Li blew the tea foam in the cup and said slowly: "Does that little brother seem to have something extra on his clothes?" ”

When Xiao Er looked down, his face suddenly turned red to the root of his ears. Just now, he was still laughing at Xie Bangui for being incompetent, but now he was slapped hard by the other party The Xie Bangui, who was extremely incompetent in his eyes, didn't know when he had poked three holes under his ribs, if Xie Bangui wanted to kill himself......

The old woman looked at the three thumb-sized holes and suddenly said angrily: "What is Xie Bangui, he dares to ask the old man to meet the third watch, he thinks too highly of himself." ”

Gonggong Li said with a smile: "What Xie Bangui means is not to meet three more, but to triple the salary." ”

"He ......" The old woman was about to scold angrily, when her face suddenly changed sharply and she asked, "What person?" ”

"Thank you!" Xie Bangui walked in with the fat man and Xiao Cai Xinyu: "I'm not asking you to meet three times, nor do I want to triple your salary." I'm trying to tell you 'it's just three things.'" Since I went to the border of Yangzhou, you have tested me three times, since you can't believe me, why do you have to go all the way from Jiangling to Yangzhou? ”

"Hehe......" Gonggong Li smiled embarrassedly: "Lord Xie misunderstood, Gong Cao has great respect for Lord Xie, how can he not believe in Lord Xie." It's just that this incident is extremely important to Granny Wei. It makes sense for her to try it out. ”

The old woman named Granny Wei said coldly: "Your performance is not satisfactory, since Gonggong Li has already offered you three times the salary, the old body reluctantly agreed." ”

Xie Bangui stretched out a finger and shook it: "I think you have made a mistake, I am neither Cao Suixin's subordinate, nor a Jianghu Ronin who can be hired casually. If it weren't for the favor owed to Cao Suixin, I wouldn't even be in the mood to come over to say hello. Now that the greetings have been called, it's time for me to go. That father-in-law, please tell Cao Suixin, I still remember his favors, but don't ask me to meet those inexplicable people in the future. ”

"Lord Xie stays ......" Gonggong Li suddenly became anxious when he saw that Xie Bangui was leaving: "Lord Xie has something to say, something to say......"

"Let him go!" Granny Wei said angrily: "The old body doesn't believe it, without him Xie Bangui, I can't do anything!" Some of the masters who are stronger than him are ......"

"Say less!" Gonggong Li knocked on his palms and said, "Didn't Gong Cao say it?" Lord Xie is not the strongest person, but he is the most suitable person...... Your matter, if you can solve it with martial arts alone, do you still need to ask Cao Gong for help? ”

Granny Wei said coldly: "I want Cao to send the Lingya master to help, but I don't want him to find someone to perfunctory." ”

Gonggong Li said angrily: "Lingya? Lord Xie is the one who can make Lingya suffer a big loss, and he has to be careful with a smile, which do you think is stronger Lingya or Lord Xie? ”

Granny Wei said vigilantly: "Isn't Cao Suixin the backer of Lingya?" He made Lingya suffer? ”

Gonggong Li said indifferently: "Compared with Lingya, Gong Cao admires Master Xie more. When he said this, Granny Wei naturally closed her mouth.

Xie Bangui had already walked to the door, and Gonggong Li had to chase after him for two steps and said urgently: "Lord Xie stays!" If Lord Xie is willing to make a move, Gong Cao promised that after the matter is completed, in addition to the honorarium promised in advance, he will do his best to help Lord Xie form the fifth secretary. ”

Granny Wei's expression couldn't help but move slightly, in her opinion, Cao Suixin was able to make such a promise, which was enough to prove that the weight of Xie Bangui in Cao Suixin's eyes was not under Ling Yuyao, the head of the Lingya, or even higher.

Xie Ban didn't reply and said, "Zhao Suxiang also mentioned the same condition. ”

Granny Wei was finally moved, Xie Bangui can be favored at the same time as he wants, competing to win over, or he has other outstanding features, and he doesn't need to be extremely martial arts, he can also be invincible. Either way, he is born with good fortune, bad luck, and good luck everywhere. And both of these are what she says she needs. If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't save face, she would even get up and stop Xie Bangui in person.

Gonggong Li finally gritted his teeth and said, "Lord Xie, if Gong Cao changes the conditions." What about helping adults plan ghosts? ”

Xie Bangui finally stopped: "How many layers of certainty does he have?" ”

"If Cao Gong goes all out, he will be absolutely sure." Gonggong Li blinked his eyes and said, "However, Cao Gong is willing to make some efforts, and I will only know after the adults and Cao Gong have a detailed discussion." ”

"That's enough." Xie Bangui nodded and said, "However, before I officially accept the task, I have one more condition. ”

Gonggong Li said with a smile: "My lord, it doesn't hurt to say anything, as long as the miscellaneous family can do it, I will never say a second word." ”

Xie Bangui looked at Granny Wei and said word by word: "I am fully responsible for the entire task." Not allowed, someone questioned my decision. Can it be done? ”

Granny Wei said coldly: "As long as your decision is reasonable, of course the old body will not refuse." ”

"Then we have nothing to talk about." Xie Bangui turned around to leave again.

Gonggong Li hurriedly stopped and said, "The adult's temper is also a little anxious. How about listening to the content of the task and making a decision? ”

"It's good!" Xie Bangui just wanted to take the opportunity to knock on Granny Wei, who had no one in her eyes, and now that her goal had been achieved, it was naturally not good to do too much.

Granny Wei said with a straight face: "A few people here, please!" ”

Granny Wei led Xie Bangui through the dark corridor and into a hall with no domes and beams. The whole hall is not only strange in architecture but also gloomy, Rao is Xie Bangui and the others have profound skills and unconsciously shivered a few times.

Granny Wei raised her hand and said, "Wait a while, the old man will go and ask the young owner to come out." ”

After the old woman left, the tall fat man raised his head and said, "How did this house be built so strangely?" ”

Xie Bangui said slowly: "This is the grave!" "A building with a dome without girders is not a tomb.

"Brother!" A cold and cold little hand suddenly grabbed the corner of the tall fat man's clothes, although there was a layer of clothing, but the cold air from that hand froze the fat man's waist and eyes numb.

When the tall fat man turned around, he saw a little girl of seven or eight years old blinking her eyes and pulling the corner of her clothes with a wicked smile on her face. Her pupils were not only surprisingly large, but also seemed empty, and she couldn't find a trace of the aura of a living person.

The fat man raised his hand in shock and slapped it on the top of the child's head, but halfway through the palm, he was caught in the air by Xie Bangui.

Xie Bangui smiled and said, "That friend, put away your weapon!" My brother has a bad temper, and it won't be good to break your weapon. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the child spread his palms and ran to the door. Only then did the fat man see that the child had several silver filaments thinner than a fishing line, and all her movements were completely controlled under the silver filaments, looking like a puppet at the mercy of others.

"There are not many people who can see through ghosts at a glance, and Lord Xie really lives up to his reputation." A woman dressed as a young woman came with the child who had run out. Although her voice was crisp and pleasant, there was a faint chill, "The concubine is in the light snow, and I have seen adults." ”

Xie Bangui looked the other party up and down and said, "Lady Stygian Xue represents Wu Ya?" ”

"Nope." Ying Qingxue shook her head and said, "The concubine quit the witch office twenty years ago, and now she is only employed by the proprietor. As for who the proprietor of the concubine is, you will soon see. ”

The tall fat man lowered his voice and said, "Cai girl, this woman looks a little evil." ”

Xiao Cai obviously has a strong wariness of Ming Qingxue: "She was one of the four evils of the witch back then, and her status was equivalent to the five poisons of the spirit ya. A spell is extremely evil, so don't deal with her as much as possible. ”

After hearing this, the fat man instinctively moved two steps back, avoiding the light snow as much as possible.

It didn't take long for Granny Wei to come back with a handsome son: "This is the old young master, and he is also the target of your mission to protect." ”

The young man clasped his fists and saluted: "In the rain, I have seen all the heroes. ”

"She's a woman!" Xiao Cai reacted first, but didn't open his mouth to break it.

The tall fat man pursed his lips, and said in his heart: "Red lips and white teeth, oily hair and powdery face, it's ...... with a rabbit."

Xie Bangui clasped his fists expressionlessly and said, "Mother-in-law means that we should protect this prince?" ”

"That's right!" Granny Wei handed Xie Bangui a map: "As long as you send the young master to Weihaiwei to board the ship before the beginning of winter, your task will be completed." The route to Weihaiwei is on the map, and you must go on the road at night. ”

"Must travel at night?" The tall fat man raised his eyebrows, "You young masters can't see the light?" ”

"Presumptuous!" Granny Wei scolded angrily: "What is the identity of the young master? Is that what you can tease too? ”

"It's okay!" Zhu Yuze looked at the fat man with interest and said, "This Mr. Gao is funny, I like it very much." ”

The fat man came down to his senses: "See? Or is the young master of your family sensible, the master didn't say anything, what are you talking about, just a mother-in-law like you, our house has long been dragged out to swell your mouth......"

"Fatty, don't say a word." Xie Bangui diverted the topic before the old woman broke out: "Granny Wei, judging from the map, it seems that your starting place is not Yangzhou but the capital. ”

"That's right!" Granny Wei held back her anger and said, "From the capital to Yangzhou, we have lost a lot of manpower...... So I had to seek foreign help. ”

Granny Wei didn't seem to want to say much about what happened on the way: "This Lady of the Dark Snow is also one of our foreign aids. ”

Xie Bangui nodded, and a few red dots circled on the map said: "In addition, we must strictly follow the map, or just settle in the designated place once?" ”

"You're in charge of this." "But you have to make sure to stay at each marked location for at least one day. It's up to you when to hit the road and when to settle down. ”

"Good!" Xie Bangui said briskly: "Is there anything else you want to explain?" ”

"Yes!" Granny Wei clapped her palms lightly, and someone brought up six sealed black pottery jars one after another: "These six jars are your second target." It would be better if they could all be sent to Weihaiwei safely, in case some of them were lost along the way. ”

Xie Bangui reached out and touched the bump marks on the jar: "Understood." How many more people will come with us this time? ”

"Only the Young Lord and Lady Stygian." Granny Wei seemed to be a little reluctant to look at Zhu Yuze and said, "Young master, you haven't suffered since you were a child, you have to serve carefully along the way." No matter what, you must ensure the safety of the young master, in case something goes wrong, even if the old body is put together to offend whatever you want, it will take your life. ”

The tall fat man said with a grin: "Don't worry, we have never missed a hand." ”

"It's for the best." Granny Wei said with red eyes: "Young master, take care all the way." ”

Zhu Yuze was just about to speak, but Xie Bangui had already preemptively said: "We won't leave for the time being, you can still get together for a few days." ”

Granny Wei's face sank: "What do you mean?" ”

"Naturally, it's a matter of preparation." Xie Bangui's eyes scanned back and forth between Gonggong Li and Pozi Wei: "Who will pay for the advance preparations?" ”

Gonggong Li said with a smile: "Dongchang can be fully responsible. How much does Master Xie want? ”
