Chapter 133: The Line Between Life and Death
There are many rules in Beizhou, if there is a traitor in Beizhou, it will be dealt with by Xuanji Pavilion personally, if there is a plea, it will be dealt with as a traitor, but if outsiders dare to interfere, then the fate of outsiders is to die without a corpse.
Xuanji Pavilion is not just talking, there are not a few people who have been executed over the years, but the backers are tough, everyone just dares to be angry and dare not speak, gradually, the affairs of Beizhou, outsiders dare not care.
Now that this Bai Yanjiu has taken over this matter, with his skills, he is afraid that he will have no return.
"Brother Shu, I also know that this matter is dangerous, but who can refuse the reward of three thousand taels of gold?"
"I'd better spare my life!" Zhong Ling said lightly, not wanting to wade in this troubled water again.
Bai Yanjiu paused and said: "Little brother, don't be in a hurry to refuse, I have an old friend who is also in Beizhou, we can go to him first to find out, if these three thousand taels can be earned lightly, why not?" ”
Where is the silver for nothing?
"In my opinion, forget it!" Zhong Ling tightened his shirt tightly, not showing much interest.
Bai Yanjiu chuckled: "What if I tell you that after the matter is completed, you can still get the pass of Xuanji Pavilion?" ”
Zhong Ling's body was stunned, who in the world didn't know that the passage of Xuanji Pavilion was hard to find?
But as long as it is an individual, there are always some secrets that cannot be humane, and the Xuanji Pavilion has the secrets of the world, and the countries have to be afraid of it, so no one dares to stop the passage order of the Xuanji Pavilion.
If her identity is exposed, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble, but if she has the pass order of Xuanji Pavilion, she can save these unnecessary troubles.
Zhong Ling chuckled and said: "How important is the pass order of Xuanji Pavilion, you and I know it well, I don't know how many pass orders are for revenge this time?" ”
"I have to give it to you, and I'm willing to give it to you. I am a carefree person, and everything will be fine with the money. Bai Yanjiu's face was sincere.
What he said also makes sense, not to mention that if he turns against the water, with the disparity in strength between the two, it will not be difficult for her to snatch the pass from Bai Yanjiu.
"Deal!" Zhong Ling stretched out his hand happily.
Bai Yanjiu didn't seem to expect her to be so easy to persuade, so she was slightly stunned, and then immediately stretched out her hand to shake Zhong Ling.
A good night's sleep.
Early in the morning, Zhong Ling opened her eyes, stretched her waist, and the clothes covering her body slipped down, which was the coarse linen clothes on Shu Le's body.
Shu Le's cheerful voice sounded outside the door: "Ling...... Brother, look what I found! ”
Zhong Ling chuckled and got up, walked outside the door, and saw Shu Le carrying a pheasant that had no desire to survive.
The pheasant didn't know how long he had been hungry, and when he saw that he was going to die, he was picked up by Shule and caught.
"The soup made by the pheasant must be delicious!" Shule licked his lips.
Zhong Ling took it, neatly finished the chicken, handed it to Shu Le, and patted her shoulder: "Okay, I'll give it a ride for you!" ”
Shu Le looked at the one that didn't shoot from beginning to end
The pheasant who made a sound swallowed his saliva, and it was really the most poisonous woman's heart.
Carrying the pheasant, he jumped outside to make soup.
The three of them ate the pheasant and set off for Beizhou.
The old friend of Baiyanjiu was waiting outside the city, and in this place in Beizhou, he was not allowed to enter the city unless he was recommended by an acquaintance.
Under the watchful eyes of the guards, he entered the city tremblingly, Bai Yanjiu's old friend was very much in line with Zhong Ling's taste, and his temperament was cold and tight, and he didn't delve into their origins, and took the three of them to their home.
It is also strange to say that he lives alone, but he has a large courtyard with three openings, and he lives alone in one room, which saves a lot of trouble.
At night, Zhong Ling hung himself on a tree and stared at the full moon.
Shu Le's exclamatory voice came from under the tree: "This is really Beizhou?" That arrogant place? ”
"Yes, that's right, this is Northstate!"
Zhong Ling opened his mouth suddenly, startling Shu Le, came back to his senses, and patted his chest.
"When did you go up the tree? There's no movement, don't you know that people are scared to death? ”
Zhong Ling jumped down from the tree and was about to pull Shu Le back to his room when a chuckle came from behind him.
"Where's both?"
Zhong Ling turned around and saw Bai Yanjiu, bowing slightly at him, Bai Yanjiu walked up quickly, his tone was slightly anxious.
"My employer has written me a letter, so I can try it tonight!"
Shu Le's face was confused: "What employer?" ”
"If you don't worry about it, I'll go back with Brother Bai, and you can stay in peace!" Zhong Ling didn't tell Shu Le about this, and he didn't want her to know, urging her to go back to the room.
Shu Le was anxious and was about to keep up, Zhong Ling waved at her: "Brother go earn some coils, you can stay at home with peace of mind, tomorrow dawn, you make porridge and wait for me!" ”
Zhong Ling saw that her footsteps did not move, and said in an aggravated tone: "The sword has no eyes, if you insist on going with you, you will hold me back!" ”
Shu Le gave up, bit his lip, and turned back to the room.
Turning around, Bai Yanjiu's eyes were inquiring.
"Your brother, I'm very concerned about you!"
"Brotherhood is deep, and natural concern."
Originally, she was counting on Shu Le to save her life, but now Shu Le is attached to her, and without her own protection, she can't live.
Who is pointing at whom, it is really unknown, but now there is a little more sympathy between the two, their family has practiced martial arts for generations, and there is a lack of a doctor, if it is possible, it is also excellent to match her with her own uncompetitive third brother.
The world is impermanent, and who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
Yunzhou at night was dead silent, quiet and a little weird, Zhong Ling took care of Baiyan wine, deliberately put his footsteps, followed him unhurriedly, and after about a pillar of incense, the two stopped outside a mansion.
Bai Yanjiu lowered his voice and said to Zhong Ling: "This is it!" ”
The mansion is located in the city, quite magnificent, with three gilt characters written on the plaque, Denglong
The door shows the identity of the owner, either rich or expensive.
"It's worth three thousand taels of gold and a pass." Zhong Ling said thoughtfully.
"People are in this house!" Bai Yanjiu said that, jumped down.
He obviously underestimated the height of the wall, and his foot was broken, his face turned pale in pain, but he did not dare to make a sound.
Zhong Ling couldn't help but hold his forehead, secretly wondering if the employer had broken his brain, how could he pick this person to earn a bounty.
In the end, Zhong Ling jumped down after him, and Bai Yanjiu had already endured the pain and stood up.
"Little brother, go this way!"
Hurt like this, and didn't forget to guide the way for himself, Zhong Ling was deeply moved, and immediately pulled him back.
"The main courtyard should go this way!"
"Little brother is really well-informed!" Bai Yanjiu couldn't help but admire.
Zhong Ling secretly thought, maybe you are too rookie, Zhong Ling took the white swallow wine and quietly walked to the front yard.
Suddenly, the guards came, and in a panic, Zhong Ling directly pulled Bai Yanjiu to the roof, and there was finally no danger.
"Little brother is really skilled!" Bai Yanjiu's face was full of admiration.
Zhong Ling's heart tightened, and he forgot to hide his strength in a hurry, if it was ......
Zhong Ling looked at Bai Yanjiu's reaction with his spare eyes, thinking that he had guessed a few percent, but the other party's gaze moved downward, and his face suddenly lit up: "Little brother, look! ”
Zhong Ling followed his line of sight and looked down, and found that he had come to the study by mistake, and there was a middle-aged man in a brocade robe in the study.
Zhong Ling squinted his eyes for a long time, but couldn't see the reason, his eyes were sour, so he gave up, and the white swallow wine behind him suddenly became excited.
"Betrayed Beizhou, collaborated with the enemy Chiyan, and complained that the people in Beizhou wanted to be destroyed!"
"You've seen it all so far?" Zhong Ling was shocked.
"What do you see on that letter?"
Zhong Ling looked fixedly, the letter paper was marked with the mark of Chiyan, Beizhou only sells information, and also requires the believer to come in person, Beizhou people are not allowed to communicate with outsiders, and those who violate the order will be killed.
Zhong Ling said lightly: "If you want to do it, it should be Xuanji Pavilion who took the initiative, how did you find it?" ”
"Do you know who that is?" Bai Yanjiu looked at her with excitement in her eyes: "That's the pavilion master's uncle, do you think Xuanji Pavilion will really move him?" ”
"Then what this uncle did is really not personnel."
Zhong Ling turned around to leave, Bai Yanjiu was about to follow, his feet slipped, and a bluestone tile rolled down the eaves, falling outside the windowsill, and the people in the study noticed the sound and raised their heads suddenly.
"Who?"
Zhong Ling secretly said that it was not good, and she turned around and was about to flee, but Bai Yanjiu grabbed the hem of her clothes so that she couldn't die.
"Little brother, I can't run far with this leg!"
Zhong Lingqi wanted to kick people away, your feet are broken, but my feet are still complete!
The guards below have lined up and will be on the roof
The two of them were surrounded by a group, which was really disadvantageous.
Zhong Ling looked at the guards below, thinking about what her chances of winning, and after thinking for a while, she gave up, she might be able to kill it alone, but now, there is still a burden around her.
Zhong Ling smiled at the angry middle-aged man below: "Uncle, good evening!" ”
Taking advantage of Bai Yanjiu's stunned moment, he pulled the person to jump down and stood steadily in front of the middle-aged man.
"What is the crime of a bold thief who dares to break into a private house at night?"
Zhong Ling glanced at the guards around him, fearless.
"Then let's talk about your fault? Want to come to that letter, are you still in the study? ”
The man's face was gloomy, and his hand was already pinching Zhong Ling's neck: "What did you see?" ”
was really angry, looking at this posture, he was going to kill her, Zhong Ling was pinched by him and couldn't speak, and he reached out and pinched Bai Yanjiu, just hoping that he could open up some tricks, but who knew that he actually stood up, clasped his hands tightly, and shouted.
"Little brother, I dragged you down today, don't worry, even if I die, I will accompany you!"
Zhong Ling couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, not knowing whether to be moved or to scold him for being stupid.
The man sneered, let go of Zhong Ling, and turned to Baiyan Wine.
"Okay, if you're so righteous, then I'll kill you first!"
Bai Yanjiu also seemed to be stupid, standing in place with his eyes closed, not hiding.
Zhong Ling took a few breaths and spoke before he could grab Bai Yanjiu: "I don't think you want this matter to be known to outsiders, right?" Why don't you guess, there are a few people who will come to your house tonight! ”
