Chapter 13: In broad daylight

Li Chenghuan sighed and said: "I am my errand, she is her princess, and the well water does not interfere with the river water!" After thinking about it, she said again: "If it weren't for my good martial arts today, I would almost have lost my life!" For three hundred taels! Sure enough, it is rich and dangerous...... So, can we discuss something? ”

"Huh?"

Li Chenghuan smiled and said: "Look, for the sake of me who almost lost my life, do you think about it, can you, think about it...... Give me some extra silver?? ”

"......" Gu Lanting frowned, and said after a while: "Are you very short of money?" ”

"Of course it's missing! Who isn't short of money? Li Chenghuan was speechless at his question, and then thought, "Oh...... Of course, there is no shortage of sons of families like you. How can a person like me, who has less than a tael of silver, not lack money! ”

"Okay."

Li Chenghuan was criticizing bitterly, and his tongue was knotted by his words: "Huh?? ”

Gu Lanting nodded and said, "What else do you want besides silver?" ”

Li Chenghuan thought seriously for a while and said, "I want to eat." ”

“……”

In the blink of an eye, he had already come to Changxi Street, Gu Lanting paused at the entrance of the street, and said seriously: "There is still official business in the house today, and I will definitely make up for the meal next time." ”

"No problem! Don't forget! Li Chenghuan patted him on the shoulder happily, "Don't forget about the silver!" ”

Gu Lanting was slapped by her, the gentleness on his face suddenly faded, and he scolded with a straight face: "In broad daylight, what kind of system!" ”

Li Chenghuan laughed. After laughing, she straightened up and waved her hand, "Goodbye, Xinyang-kun." There will be a period later, let's meet again! After saying this, she raised her leg and was about to go to the embroidery department, but at this time, Gu Lanting suddenly blocked the way, her eyes were soft, and she said in a gentle tone: "Stretch out your hand." ”

Li Chenghuan stretched out his hand, and he stuffed something in her hand as quickly as he could. Then he turned around and entered the gate of the Gu Mansion without looking back.

Li Chenghuan spread his palms with a stunned face.

Inside lay a silver ticket.

"This man...... Does it look like a gentleman? Li Chenghuan scratched his head, and suddenly remembered that he had forgotten an important task: what about smearing him?

That's it, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, let's talk about it next time!

She walked briskly to the embroidery division, the sky had already darkened, the early spring night was a little cold, she was sweating, and now she felt a layer of clammy cold on her back. When she passed through an uninhabited alley, a cold wind blew, and she couldn't help but shiver - someone suddenly came out of the night and blocked in front of her.

Li Chenghuan's eyes condensed slightly. The person who came was dressed in black and covered his face with a face scarf. It only took a split second for her to turn around and run backwards.

The experience of shuttling through the streets and alleys all year round told her that the alley is the most unsuitable place for fighting! Of course, nowhere is not suitable for fighting, so running is the best policy!

Li Chenghuan has nothing else to do, except for his light practice. The cornices don't make a sound. But the other party is also very skilled, and he follows closely in the night. Li Chenghuan specially picked complicated streets and alleys to drill, and after a few rounds, the man really had a trace of confusion and stood motionless at the crossroads.

Li Chenghuan quietly hid in an old tree, holding his breath, judging the identity of the other party - first, this person's familiarity with the terrain is not from an outsider. She walks the streets and alleys all day long, and no matter how tricky the terrain is, she can't easily get rid of this person. Second, this man has a solid foundation and is well-trained, and he is by no means an ordinary ranger. Thirdly, the person's left hand is always pressed on his waist, indicating that his usual weapon is a knife or sword.

Who could it be? Who wants to hurt her?

Li Chenghuan was thinking about it, and the man's eyes suddenly looked like lightning, shooting straight towards the tree.

Alas...... Brother, if you want to make a stab, you have to figure it out, do you know that jumping from a tree is the yard of the embroidery division?

Li Chenghuan turned over and jumped into the yard-

A sound of breaking the air sounded in my ears.

A hidden weapon flew out. It's about to be pierced in the chest.

Li Chenghuan flashed into the air, which could be avoided. Who knew that the man missed a move and continued to make a move, and the second hidden weapon came quickly. Li Cheng couldn't avoid it, his arm was numb, and the hidden weapon flew by rubbing the flesh and skin.

"Hiss......" The blood bloomed, and Li Chenghuan shook off the black hair fiercely, and clenched his fists to meet the enemy.

She has been practicing martial arts with Li Qianzhong since she was a child, and when she grew up, she practiced with a bunch of senior brothers in the embroidery department, the moves were all kinds of weird and unpredictable, and after a few moves, the man in black was a little stunned, Li Chenghuan saw that when the other party was distracted, he suddenly flew out with a kick and swept towards the lower half of the opponent's body.

"You...... You ......" The man was kicked hard by Li Chenghuan in the critical position, and the pain made his muscles burst out, and before he could react, Li Chenghuan's long sword had already left his hand and stabbed straight into the man's face, the man's head flashed sideways, Li Chenghuan's tricks suddenly changed, and the face towel was cut open. A slightly frightened face was revealed.

Being recognized as a face basically represents the end of an assassin's career.

Li Chenghuan's long sword was pointed, and she said: "Now you have two choices in front of you, one, explain truthfully; Second, we'll see you in court. It's just that when you go to the court, pull up the radish and carry the mud, the master behind you may not necessarily protect you. ”

The man glared at her viciously, as if weighing the pros and cons.

Li Chenghuan shook his head and sighed: "If you don't want to explain, think about the ability of the embroidery department." How many cases have been tried in this year, and how many high-ranking people have not been able to go unpunished, I don't think you can be a precedent for a small assassin. But......" she said with a smile, "if you tell the truth, I might have assumed it hadn't happened." It's okay for you to go back, and I'll take precautions in the future. Isn't that a win-win deal? ”

At this point, the man's incompatible attitude immediately softened in half.

Li Chenghuan then analyzed reasonably: "Although I don't know which point is worth hunting down...... But I guess you're just doing things for money, and you must have paid a lot of money...... You see, the higher the price, the deeper the implications, so it's even less likely that I'm going to die so easily. If I die, do you think you can escape? ”

The man's remaining insistence was crumbling.

Li Chenghuan said: "So, are you planning to use money to do things, or are you going to fight with your life?" ”

The man had fallen completely. After bowing his head and pondering for a long time, he threw a secret letter from his sleeve.

Li Chenghuan watched the letter fall at his feet, and did not pick it up, but looked at him idly.

The assassin knew this, and raised his hands and took a few steps back. Seeing that Li Chenghuan didn't move, he immediately turned around and ran forward.

Li Chenghuan waited for the figure to disappear into the night before slowly putting away his sword and picking up the secret letter on the ground.
