In the woodland, Mu Junwu's expression was solemn.

He remembered the scene eight years ago, and even more remembered that he had been in distress three times on the way home.

"Could it be that all this is not what Emperor Tang meant, it was Meng Zhixiang who did it?" Mu Junwu muttered in a low voice: "But...... Why did he kill me? ”

He didn't have a clue, after all, Meng Zhixiang and the Ma family had no grudge against Chu, and even as the real rulers of the territory, they didn't provoke each other.

For a while, Mu Junwu had no answer, he looked at the death of these corpses, and returned to the question he was more concerned about: "This poison, what kind of poison is it?" ”

He was desperate to know, but ...... Tang Jiu'er wouldn't give him an answer, he could only find the answer himself.

……

"Master, grandma is looking for us, what's the matter?"

Hua Rou and Yu'er followed Tang Jiu'er to the Soul Snatcher Room, and on the way, she asked puzzled-Grandma actually wanted to see the two of them at the same time, which was very strange.

Tang Jiu'er didn't look back: "I don't know." ”

Hua Rou shrugged her shoulders helplessly and continued to help Yu'er forward, but Yu'er looked full of uneasiness, and her eyes secretly glanced at Hua Rou from time to time.

Why did Hua Rou also come?

Ah Lin said that grandma would let me do the thing, could it be that she would do it too?

God forbid, it's good for me to go alone, if Huarou also goes, won't it affect her?

Yu'er thought uneasily, in fact, Tang Jiu'er, who was walking in front at the moment, also had a very ugly face.

Because she knew that what awaited the two of them was definitely a catastrophe.

The three of them entered the soul snatching room, and grandma stared at the two of them for a moment before speaking: "I am very happy that you have all gained something in the trial, but since you have grown your skills, you should go out and experience the experience!" ”

Grandma was silent for a moment after speaking, looked directly at Hua Rou and said, "Especially Hua Rou." ”

This specially added sentence, the tone was heavy and strange, so that Hua Rou couldn't help but look up at her grandmother, and saw the anger in her eyes, and hurriedly lowered her head, but she couldn't help but feel a little worried in her heart.

Grandma pinched her fingertips and suppressed her anger: "Tang Xiao is not blessed, he failed to inherit what he should inherit, since you have inherited it, then everything he needs to carry in the future will fall on your head." ”

"Grandma, I ......" Hua Rou wanted to explain, but Grandma raised her hand to stop her, and slowly got up and walked to her side.

"To be honest, I don't think you're the best candidate, but I respect the results of the trial, so this time, you have to go out and do something for the Tang Sect."

"Get out?" Hua Rou was stunned, while Tang Jiu'er looked at her grandmother uneasily: "Door master, Hua Rou is still young, she doesn't understand the rules, and her ability is not enough, I am afraid it is inappropriate to send her out to do errands, or ......."

"You don't even know what I want her to do, so you say it's not appropriate?" Grandma glared at Tang Jiu'er with a displeased, almost vicious expression, forcing her to swallow her words and stop talking.

Grandma walked back to the main seat and said, "Hua Rou, what kind of situation is the Tang Sect in now, do you know?" ”

Where does Hua Rou know? I can only shake my head.

"There are fierce tigers outside the Tang Gate, and there are evil wolves inside, if you want to carry the Tang Gate in the future, you have to help the Tang Gate eliminate the evil wolves and kill the tigers, so that the Tang Gate can rest easy."

Hua Rou blinked: "Dare to ask grandma, is the evil wolf a family business?" ”

"Yes, there is also a pheasant room."

"That Tiger is ......"

"The tiger is the master behind the wolf, his name is ...... Meng Zhixiang. ”

"Meng... Zhixiang? Hua Rou was at a loss, it was the first time she had heard of this name.

"He is the envoy of the Xichuan Festival, and he has installed a lot of people in the Tang Gate, and now the entire Tang Gate is about to become a sharp blade in his hands. For this reason, the people in the Tang Sect killed many people who were unwilling to kill, and also did many things that they were unwilling to do. ”

Killed a lot of people who didn't want to kill?

Hua Rou was frightened and thought to herself: Will this also include my father and mother and Brother Mu's brothers?

"If the Tang Sect doesn't save itself, it will definitely be swallowed by this tiger in the future, and now there is an excellent opportunity for us to use our strength to get rid of this tiger! So ......"

Grandma was halfway through her words, paused, she stared at Hua Rou, as if she was hesitating, and seemed to be hanging her appetite, and Yu'er, who had been standing beside Hua Rou, was already covered with beads of sweat on her forehead, and her eyes were full of worry.

"What does Grandma want me to do?" Hua Rou couldn't wait for the following, and opened her mouth to ask, and her grandmother smiled: "I want you...... Go and be the county lord! ”

Hua Rou's eyes widened: "County Lord? ”

"Meng Zhixiang agreed to the invitation of Dong Zhang, the envoy of the Dongchuan Festival, and in a few days, the Dong family's team will send Dong Zhang's daughter to the land of western Sichuan to complete the marriage, I want you to take the identity of this county lord, enter the Meng Mansion, and then ......"

Grandma's eyes suddenly burst with a fierce light: "Wait for the opportunity to kill Meng Zhixiang!" ”

Homicide!

She wants me to kill!

Hua Rou froze in disbelief: "You are...... You want me to go...... Homicide? ”

"That's right! If you don't get rid of him, the Tang Sect will be in danger, and you won't be able to afford the weight of the Tang Sect in the future......"

"But!" Hua Rou was a little anxious: "I never thought of being the master of the Tang Sect!" ”

Grandma was stunned.

Tang Min, who was standing beside her, glanced at her grandmother and quickly lowered her head.

And Tang Jiu'er looked at Hua Rou with a complicated expression, full of sadness.

As for Yu'er, she bit her lip, her eyes rolling uneasily from side to side.

The scene was awkwardly quiet, as if a cool wind was blowing......

"Grandma! I swear, I really didn't want to be the head of the door, I was just in a hurry......"

"No more." Grandma interrupted angrily: "Since you have inherited the secret arts, you have the capital to succeed, as for whether you want it or not, I can't help you." ”

"But I ......"

"This is the first assignment I've given you, and you only have three days to prepare." Grandma didn't wait for Hua Rou to answer, and looked at Yu'er again: "Yu'er, you go with her." ”

"Yes."

At this time, Tang Jiu'er took a step forward: "Master Xie entrusted Hua Rou with a heavy task and sent her to assassinate Meng Zhixiang. It's just that there is only one helper in Yu'er, I'm afraid I can't be sure, so it's better to let me go with ......"

"I will send the disciples of the Soul Snatcher Room and the Hidden Weapon Room to accompany them. I have other arrangements for you. Grandma turned her head to look at Tang Min: "You go and arrange it." ”

"Yes." Tang Min agreed and retreated, and Tang Jiu'er saw that there was no possibility of maneuvering, so she looked at Hua Rou worriedly: "Let's go back." ”

After Hua Rou saluted her grandmother with an aggrieved face, the three of them left the soul snatching room.

Along the way, Hua Rou suppressed her emotions, Yu'er was nervous, and as for Tang Jiu'er, she had a cold face, like who owed her 1.8 million eldest son.

"Why did you send me?" As soon as she returned to the main hall of the poison room, Hua Rou couldn't help but ask: "I don't want to be the master of the door at all, and I don't have the skills of those senior brothers and sisters in the soul snatching room, why would grandma send me...... What about killing......? ”

Tang Jiu'er sat on the main seat, bowing his head and not saying a word.

Seeing this, Yu'er could only comfort Hua Rou: "Don't be like this, the order of the door master, the poison master can't disobey it, we as disciples can only obey the order." ”

"Do it?" Hua Rou was dissatisfied: "That's murder!" ”

Yu'er said in a low voice: "When the time comes...... I'll do it. ”
