Chapter 60: The Smiling Monster
Chaos will naturally be messed up, and the result is self-evident, and Su Mu directly sprinkled a handful of powder.
When the group at the head came into contact with the powder, someone exclaimed, "Poisonous!" ”
The powder had already spread everywhere, and these people were originally holding the hope of leaving from here, so they naturally didn't want to die, so otherwise, the people contaminated with the powder immediately went to find water to wash it, so Su Mu directly grabbed one of them, broke his neck at the same time, and grabbed the knife to kill the others.
It wasn't until many more people fell that the remaining eliminators discovered that the powder was not poisonous at all, but ordinary lime powder.
"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating!" Su Mu grinned, "I can now find out why you were eliminated, because you all have problems with your brains, and it is not too much to say that you are mentally handicapped idiots." ”
The rest of the people were enraged and rushed forward with a roar, and this time Su Mu threw out another handful of powder, and these people didn't care at all, still waving their weapons and stepping forward.
Su Mu leaned against the wall, calmly blocked, and was not in a hurry to fight back, and soon, many people fell down screaming, because this time he really poisoned.
Su Mu leaned against the wall and covered his stomach with a smile: "It's said that soldiers don't get tired of cheating, but you still don't use your brains." ”
One person in the rear said angrily: "It is despicable and shameless to use poison!" ”
Su Mu directly threw the weapon in his hand and stabbed the man's throat, and the man fell directly to the ground.
Su Mu put away his smile and looked at the rest of the people: "Cold-blooded, ruthless, despicable and shameless, is the basis for becoming a Xuanbu thorn." ”
At this time, Su Mu was only slightly injured, and he was in excellent condition, which was a serious psychological blow to the rest of the people.
Su Mu moved his lower limbs: "Actually, at the beginning, if you kept throwing the weapons in your hands, I would have died a long time ago, but I know that you won't do that, the reason is very simple, if you want to leave here, you have to kill people with your own hands, so many weapons are thrown together, and when I die, I don't know who killed them." It's just that what you didn't expect at all was that it wasn't you who surrounded me, but that I was planning to kill you all from the beginning. ”
With that, Su Mu let out a strange laugh and suddenly rushed out, and next, there was a chase.
The remaining eliminators have completely lost their fighting spirit, almost no one resists, and some people have no strength to hold their weapons tightly, and Su Mu is like slaughtering animals, and the remaining people are eliminated one by one.
When Aoki came to the fifth floor to check, he saw hell on earth, and Suki was lying in the pile of corpses, eating dry food and drinking water.
Aoki looked around and said, "You've broken my record. ”
Su Mu said: "I know, but I have to keep going, because if you come to challenge again on a whim one day, then my top thorn status will not be guaranteed." ”
Aoki took off his mask and looked sad: "Su Mu, you have killed enough people today." ”
Su Mu swallowed the last mouthful of dry food and poured it directly on the corpse behind him: "So, I have to sleep for a while." ”
Then, Su Mu went directly into the dream and fell asleep.
Aoki looked at Su Mu who was sleeping like a baby, and couldn't help but be stunned, because he grew up watching Su Mu, from the time this child was young, he found that his mind was different from ordinary people, although he loved to laugh, but that smile was like the death behind him pulling the corners of his mouth, extremely indifferent to life, killing any living thing for him, it was like drinking saliva.
Once upon a time, Aoki also thought about killing Su Mu, because Su Mu is a monster that cannot be controlled. In case he gets out of control one day, with his strength, he will not only threaten the entire Xuan Ministry, but even the emperor.
However, since the establishment of the Xuan Ministry, Su Mu has been the only one who has carried out every assassination mission perfectly.
This is a rare genius in a hundred years, no, a monster, a monster who only wants to live in the shadows.
Aoki on the big tree outside the Rouyuan Palace came out of the memories, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, he still didn't understand why Ji Chengying sent Su Mu to the Rouyuan Palace to go undercover, just now it was almost bad.
However, Aoki was also very surprised that Su Mu actually held back.
Did Su Mu really hold back? No.
At this time, Su Mu stood on top of the pavilion of Rouyuan Palace, looking at the scenery in the distance, and showed a happy smile.
On the ground next to your floor, there is Manager Zhu, who has been thrown to death.
"When you're old, don't climb so high," Su Mu stood there and muttered, "It's good now, but you fell to death, right?" ”
Su Mu turned and walked away, walking into the shadows of the attic as if he had never been there.
——
Manager Zhu was killed by a fall, and was naturally immediately informed by Tang Xiaohao and Bao Meng, and the two also rushed to the scene immediately.
This is the first time that Bao Meng has seen a dead person in the real sense, although he was scared in his heart, he didn't dare to step forward like an ordinary woman, he just kept his distance and stood there watching, but he was thinking about another thing in his heart. Because she thought about committing suicide, she was Sangluo's person when she was alive, and she would become a ghost who followed Sangluo when she died.
Tang Xiaohao stood there looking at the corpse and asked those chamberlains and palace maids, and the answers of these people were all unknown.
Tang Dun couldn't bear to look directly, frowned and hid to the side. The little bell frowned and looked at it, feeling that Manager Zhu's appearance of being killed was too miserable, and his body was distorted.
Tang Xiaohao asked a short and fat chamberlain: "Does Manager Zhu go to the top of the pavilion on weekdays?" ”
The short and fat chamberlain replied, "Yes, every day." ”
Tang Xiaohao asked again: "What are you going to do?" ”
Humpty Dumpty shook his head: "The little one doesn't know." ”
At this time, Su Mu walked slowly, and after seeing the corpse, he pretended to be surprised and took a step back: "This, this ......"
Tang Xiaohao looked at Su Mu, and the surprised expression on his face did not link him to the death of Manager Zhu, but Su Mu's next sentence made his hair stand on end.
Su Mu sighed and said, "This is probably retribution." ”
It was this sentence that made Tang Xiaohao immediately suspect Su Mu, but he didn't say anything immediately, but said: "Zhongguan Su, you come with me, the others will put the body away, I'll go up first to see if it's necessary to tell the palace to send someone to investigate." ”
Tang Xiaohao's words were obviously said to Su Mu, but Su Mu did not panic at all, but slowly followed Tang Xiaohao into the pavilion, and then went up to the top of the pavilion.
Tang Xiaohao didn't say anything to Su Mu, but searched in the pavilion, but he soon found that a lot of dust had fallen under the wall next to him, so he squatted down and slowly checked the location where the dust fell, and then found a loose brick.
After Tang Xiaohao took the brick, he found that there was a hidden compartment inside, in which was hidden a box, and the box was filled with gold leaves.
Seeing this, Su Mu said: "It turns out that Manager Zhu has hidden a lot of private money here." ”
Tang Xiaohao looked at the box and said: "When the person is dead, these valuable gold leaves are still there, so it's not for money, it's just for life." ”
Su Mu immediately praised: "Master Ma is really smart and meticulous. ”
Tang Xiaohao smiled and asked, "Zhongguan Su, where were you when Manager Zhu died?" ”
Su Mu still didn't panic: "I went to the back kitchen, but there was no one there, so I came back again." ”
Su Mu directly answered all of Tang Xiaohao's questions, in other words, he had no witnesses.
Tang Xiaohao walked up to Su Mu: "How did Manager Zhu die, I don't know, who are you, who sent you, I don't know, and I don't want to know, but this matter ends here, if there is another person in Rouyuan Palace who dies in the future, I will ask you." ”
Su Mu was still calm: "The little one understands." ”
Tang Xiaohao stuffed the box to Su Mu: "Take it, exchange this box of gold leaves for a silver dragon, and then reward it to the people of Rouyuan Palace, which can not only buy people's hearts, but also block other people's gossip." ”
Su Mu took the box, knelt down and said, "Su Mu bowed for the slaves and maids of the Rouyuan Palace. ”
When Tang Xiaohao left, he threw down a sentence: "Congratulations to you Zhongguan Su, you will be the head of Rouyuan Palace in the future." ”
Su Mu, who was still kneeling there with his back to Tang Xiaohao and holding the box, had a strange smile on his face: "Villain Su Mu, I will definitely serve the horse master in this life!" ”
Tang Xiaohao did not pursue the matter, first of all, because he didn't know Su Mu's identity, and he didn't know who was standing behind Su Mu. Secondly, there is no conclusive evidence.
Based on these two points, Tang Xiaohao could not take this opportunity to drive this threat away.
The people behind it are plotting to get Su Mu to Rouyuan Palace, and they must know that Su Mu is a madman. This guy dared to kill Manager Zhu, who was sorry for him, on the first day he came here, which also shows that even if he would do such an excessive thing, the person behind him would not take it seriously.
Therefore, Tang Xiaohao can only turn big things into small things, and by the way, he also promoted Su Mu and made Su Mu the head of this group of subordinates, so that he could avoid killing people like Su Mu when he gets angry again.
This madman shouldn't do anything to himself and Bao Meng, Tang Dun and Little Bell are also kind to others on weekdays, and they won't be his target.
Only, who sent this madman? What is the purpose of sending it!?
At the same time that Tang Xiaohao asked his subordinates to collect the body, he sent someone to inform the palace of the chamberlain, saying that Manager Zhu had lost his foot and died. Take this opportunity to take a look at the attitude of the Inner Chamberlain, normally, the Chamberlain will definitely send someone to investigate. What followed was nothing more than two results, one of which was that the Inner Chamberlain did not send anyone to come, acquiescing to the fact that he had fallen to his death; The second is that although someone was sent, it was just a formality.
If it is one of them, then this person's background is very unusual, and if it is the second, then the people behind him will still be worried, and sending someone to go through the motions is also to warn him to be more restrained in the future.
Tang Xiaohao was most afraid that Su Mu was a person sent by the Nanrong family, but now it doesn't make sense logically, he has become a concubine, and he will not hold real power in his hands, and the Nanrong family can use his identity instead and will not harm himself again.
Therefore, the person who will send Su Mu will only be the Ji family, that is, the royal family, and Su Mu is so unscrupulous, which shows that the people behind him can cover the sky with one hand, and in today's imperial city, there are only two people who can do it, the emperor and the queen mother.
It's just that Tang Xiaohao didn't expect that Su Mu dared to act like this, not because of someone's support, but because of his personality.
So, why did Ji Chengying send Su Mu? In the final analysis, it stems from Ji Chengying's suspicious character.
