Chapter 16: Pietro the Assassin

Chapter 16 Thorn Petro

Tianyi crouched under a bookcase in a bookstore, rummaging through a cabinet full of miscellaneous items. No pop-up window update fast //

He should be the only one in the bookstore at the moment, but he suddenly said, "You have some ability." ”

A dark shadow was standing behind Tianyi at some point, "Do you have eyes behind you?" The visitor was confident in his covert actions, so he wanted to hear Tianyi explain how he found out.

Tianyi smiled: "Even if I don't have eyes, I can know that you are near." As he answered, he found what he was looking for, and stood up with it in his hand.

Seeing that Tianyi was holding a long object in his hand, the other party reacted quickly, immediately raised his hand, and a hidden blade poked out of the cuff and pressed against the back of Tianyi's neck: "Don't move." ”

"See clearly, this is not a weapon. The blade was on the back of his neck, Tianyi was still listless, and his expression was leisurely: "Can you put away the sword and let me go over and sit and talk," he paused, turned his face, looked into the other's eyes, and called out the other's name: "Mr. Petro." ”

Seeing this Oriental face, Petro was also slightly stunned before responding: "How do you know my name?"

"Hah...... I don't know why. Tianyi gently pushed away the opponent's Hidden Blade with two fingers and walked towards his seat: "You think you are a top thorn, incognito, hidden, and neat." But I don't think you're just between the second-rate and the first-class, not the top at all. ”

"Hmph...... Don't you think you should be more attentive when your life is threatened?" Pietro was still very confident at this time, he thought that with just a raise of his hand, he could harvest the life of the person in front of him.

Tianyi yawned, and the expression on his face seemed to mock: "Friend, your intimidation is so powerful, I was so scared that I almost fell asleep." ”

"Mr. Pietro, I know you've been following Count Boge for not a day or two, so you should have noticed that there is something unusual about this bookstore. "One day.

Pietro replied, "You're a wizard, aren't you?"

The night before, Pietro had secretly followed the Count as usual, and had seen him enter the bookstore, and then watched all the way to see the Count go to the rescue of an injured young man. Later, the count returned to the bookstore, and so far Pietro had not seen anything famous, but after a long time he felt that something was wrong. Why did the bookstore lock the door and Jue never came out? Is there a secret passage inside? My tracking has been discovered?

Thinking of this, Pietro became more and more uneasy, and kept watch all night, and did not see the count come out at daybreak. So he found a child, gave him a few bounties, and asked him to go and see it for himself. The street child, who was better than a monkey, walked around the bookstore a few times, and found that there was only one window facing the street except the door, so he climbed up to the windowsill, put his head in and looked around, and soon ran back to Pietro, and told him that it was an empty house.

Pietro didn't believe it at first, thinking that the boy was lying, so he took the risk of checking it himself, and it turned out that the room was really empty, with nothing but the four broken walls. Petro looked around the neighborhood again, and it was certain that there used to be a bookstore, and the owner was a mysterious stranger, but no one knew anything about the shop, and in fact, not many people patronized it.

But why was the house empty overnight?Haunted?Witchcraft?There were taboo things for men who licked blood from the knife edge, and Pietro only felt a furry in his heart, but he remained calm, and went to the Count's lodgings in the afternoon of the next day to see if the Count had returned, but unexpectedly, he happened to find the Count coming out of the lodgings alone.

After following all the way again, the count first went to the chimney bar, and then to the bookstore of Tianyi, the bookstore, the same bookstore, but the location was in the other corner of the city of Rome! At this point, Pietro's brain was short-circuited, because it was a strange thing that could not be explained by common sense, so he decided to meet the owner of this bookstore directly today, and seek a reasonable answer.

Tianyi listened to the other party's question, smiled and replied: "What do you think I am, that's your freedom." Your real doubts, and I know, are you trying to figure out why bookstores disappear from one place and pop up from another. But I don't think there's any need to answer, and even if I know it to you, you may not be able to understand it. ”

As soon as the day came, I took out the thing I had just taken out, it was a black jade artifact, which looked like a flute.

"Like this thingβ€”the snake flute. If I told you that with the power of this thing, you can dig a tunnel all the way to the end of the world, can you imagine how it works?"

Pietro said, "Well, wizard, it looks like you want to show that you're a great character. He really wasn't going to ask any more about the paranormal: "So, tell me a reason not to kill you." ”

Tianyi sneered: "You want to kill me because you think I'm helping Count Boge, but I want to ask you a question, why do you want to track down Earl?"

"For the secret behind him, of course. Pietro said: "Actually, I basically guessed that the so-called secret is eighty percent of the treasures left by the Templars." Mr. Wizard, if you are informed, tell me some information about the treasure, and perhaps I will consider sparing your life. ”

Tianyi would not let the other party gain the initiative to guide the dialogue at all, and he replied: "Is it, for the treasure...... But as far as I know, you went down the path of assassination because of your hatred for the Templars, and the enemy of your enemy is your friend, so you responded to Philip IV's secret want. ”

"No matter what tricks you're playing...... Pietro's expression became more and more unkind: "My patience is limited!"

"With all due respect, even if you kill the Count, you won't be able to erase that hatred. Tianyi's brainwashing began again: "In this world, there are many people like you who carry hatred, Templars, Holy See, kings, nobles, chaebols, street villains, blasphemers, bandits, pirates...... What do you think your meager strength can change? One day you will grow old, your sword will no longer be sharp, your hands will no longer be agile, but the world will still suffer, until the day you die, including after you die, forever. ”

"What the hell do you think......" said Petro.

Tianyi hooked the corners of his mouth, and he waited for this question: "I just want to make a deal with you." ”#
