Chapter 45: Temptation
The two successive failures made Zuo Wei extremely angry, pointing at Lin Shuang and scolding angrily: "You can't even solve a powerless scholar, what's the use of you?!"
Lin Shuang's eyebrows were furrowed, and his face was entangled, "My lord, it stands to reason that he is indeed a weak scholar, but, but he is a powerful evil sect, and there are always sixteen killers sent twice, but none of them survived."
After a pause, Lin Shuang boldly said, "My lord, is it possible... This scholar actually knows martial arts?"
Zuo Wei didn't believe it at all, or rather, he didn't want to believe it, "Look at him like that, does he look like he knows martial arts?!"
"Yes, but ......"
But none of the killers sent back returned.
"My subordinates think that maybe we can check if Miss Sheng has invited a secret guard with strong martial arts." A voice sounded slowly.
Zuo Hui's eyes lit up when he saw the person coming, "Wei Cheng, do you mean that it was the person invited by Sheng Qingyuan who helped Shen Zhao stop those killers?"
Wei Cheng nodded, "If Shen Zhao really doesn't understand martial arts, then it can only be that they have invited a master to protect them, and with Sheng Qingyuan's current situation, it is normal to invite a few secret guards with strong martial arts."
Zuo Hui quite agreed with his guess, and immediately instructed Lin Shuang: "Check it out immediately!"
Wei Cheng said again: "This is the most likely, but for the sake of prudence, we still need to probe Shen Zhao's reality to see if he really doesn't understand martial arts."
Zuo Wei nodded again and again when he listened, and said to Lin Shuang, "Why don't you hurry up and do it?"
Lin Shuang replied "yes", but when he turned around to do it, Yu Guang glanced at Wei Cheng, and he was very unhappy.
He has been following the adults for so long, and it is not easy for him to be his personal guard, but it has not been long since this person came, and he has already gained the trust of adults, and he believes everything that adults believe.
Wei Cheng just didn't see Lin Shuang's unkind eyes.
Wei Cheng's ignorance made Lin Shuang more and more unhappy, but now Wei Cheng is very valued by Lin Shuang, and he can't do anything to him.
can only put all the dissatisfaction on Shen Zhao's body.
When Lin Shuang found Shen Zhao, Shen Zhao had just come out of the academy, Lin Shuang thought about it, and his eyes fell on a child who was drooling greedily not far away at the rock sugar gourd.
A little kid took a string of rock sugar gourds, walked up to Shen Zhao, pulled his clothes, held a note in his hand, and said to him, "Brother, brother, there is a young lady who asked me to give this to you."
Shen took a look at the note, which read: See you ten miles outside the city
Shen Zhao asked the child, "Who did you just say gave you this note?"
The child licked the rock sugar gourd and tilted his head, "Hmm...... A good-looking young lady."
The child thought about it again and pointed to the dimples on his cheeks, "Little sister is also concave here like me, so look good."
Shen Zhao smiled lightly, this kid, can he praise himself?
The child then bounced away.
Shen looked at the note in his hand, but the look in his eyes dimmed by two points.
According to the description of the child just now, it is probably Qingyuan.
It's just that......
Why did Qing Yuan ask him to go to Shilipo outside the city?
And in such a way?
Shen Zhao looked at the back of the child leaving, and his eyes deepened a little.
Shilipo ......
Lin Shuang, who had already found a place to hide, saw that he couldn't see Shen Zhao's arrival for a long time, and his brows furrowed.
Isn't he going to come?
"You, go and see, is Shen Zhao here?" Lin Shuang impatiently ordered to his subordinates.
The subordinate immediately went to investigate, and after a while he turned back and whispered to him, "It's coming, it's coming."
Inexplicably, Lin Shuang's heart was a little nervous, "How many people are coming?"
"Only one
one."
Hearing this, Lin Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart lifted slightly.
A person ............ Was he really fooled and thought he was invited by Sheng Qingyuan, or was he prepared?
"Ready." Lin Shuang raised his hand and said in a suppressed voice.
Shen Zhao came to the pavilion of Shilipo, sat for a while, and when he saw that there was no one, he couldn't help but call, "Qingyuan? Qing Yuan? Did you ask me to come? I'm already here, where are you?"
An idiot!
Hearing Shen Zhao's inquiry, Lin Shuang couldn't help but complain with disdain in his heart.
That Wei Cheng also said that it was possible that Shen Zhao personally killed those killers.
How could such a stupid person have such a powerful ability.
Let them test it, it's just too much, let him kill people directly!
Lin Shuang didn't even bother to hide, and made a gesture to let the others rush up directly.
Shen Zhao saw the person who suddenly rushed over, and his face was a little panicked.
"Who are you? What are you going to do?" Shen Zhao asked vigilantly.
Seeing the fear on Shen Zhao's face, Lin Shuang became more and more proud, "If you want to blame it, blame yourself for robbing women with us adults!"
"Kill him for me!" Lin Shuang ordered.
Looking at Shen Zhao from afar, it was as if he was looking at a dead man.
The guards immediately swarmed him and rushed at him with their swords in hand.
Shen Zhao didn't hide his fear at all, and sat on the chair in fright.
When the long sword was about to touch Shen Zhao, Xuan Yi suddenly appeared, waved the long sword away, and began to protect and confront the group of guards.
Shen Liang's face was full of fear, but his eyes were cold.
Xuan Yi's martial arts are very high, and it is more than enough to deal with these guards who are only Zuo Hui, and he even used all his strength, but he used less than seventy percent of his strength, and in the time of a stick of incense, he had already solved this group of guards.
As for Lin Shuang, he had already left immediately when he found out that something was wrong.
What is the life of those guards?
Or is your own life important!
"Master, do you want to kill him?" Xuan Yi looked at Lin Shuang, who was running faster than a rabbit, and asked Shen Zhao.
Shen Zhao rolled up his sleeves and said lightly, "No need, today's play is for him."
From the moment the child gave him the note, he realized that it was most likely a trap.
The other party sent people to kill him twice before, but they failed, so they naturally became suspicious.
With his current martial arts, he is actually not afraid of Zuo Hui, but he keeps a hand in everything, so that the enemy does not know your hole cards, and he will not make a rash move, and even if he shoots, he will not be able to grasp the important place.
If he wanted to kill Lin Shuang, Lin Shuang wouldn't be able to leave at all.
However, he needed Lin Shuang to tell Zuo Hui about the situation.
Bento is a powerless scholar, but there are masters around him, if you want to attack them, you have to think twice.
Lin Shuanglian crawled back to Zuofu, and when Zuo Wei saw his appearance, he immediately took a few steps back in disgust, "You fell into the dung pit?" new
Lin Shuang: "............"
Lin Shuang cried with a sad face, and said to Zuo Hui, "My subordinates almost can't come back to see your lord."
When Wei Cheng heard this, he walked over and waited for his next words with a serious face.
Zuo Ye sighed in his heart, "What do you mean by this? Is Shen Zhao really a martial arts master?"
Lin Shuang said disdainfully: "That's a waste scholar, as soon as he saw our people appear, he was so frightened that he almost peed his pants, but there was indeed a very powerful martial arts master by his side, that master, he, he killed all the people I brought with me."
Zuo Wei was shocked, "Just one person?!"
Lin Shuang nodded again and again with a sad face, "Yes, just one person, that person's martial arts are really too high, we, the guards of our Zuofu, I'm afraid that none of them are his opponents."
Zuo Wei was shocked when he heard this.
The guards in his house are not bad at martial arts, but they can't even beat one person?
Wei Cheng thought deeply for a while and asked Lin Shuang, "Are you sure that Shen Zhao is really scared?"
Lin Shuang immediately glared at him when he heard this, "What do you mean by this? Do I dare to lie to adults?"
Wei Cheng's eyebrows condensed slightly, "I just want to make sure that if he has such a powerful guard, then why is he still afraid when he sees you?"
Lin Shuang immediately retorted, "Hmph! He didn't know that his guard would protect him, and he was really scared at first, until he saw the guard appear, and he breathed a sigh of relief."
Lin Shuang sneered and said, "An excellent secret guard can hide his figure, ordinary people are afraid that they don't know where their secret guard is, he looks like a secret guard who has just been invited for a long time, and he is not used to the existence of the secret guard."
Zuo Wei couldn't help but nod his head when he listened.
Seeing Wei Cheng's frowning appearance, Zuo Yi asked, "Do you think something is wrong?"
Lin Shuang exploded as soon as he heard this, and immediately questioned Wei Cheng, "Are you still questioning me for lying to adults?"
As he spoke, Lin Shuang knelt down to Zuo Yi with a "poof" and cried, "My lord, you know your subordinates, and your subordinates will never dare to deceive you for half a point."
Zuo Wei had a headache when he looked at him like this, "You get up, I didn't say I didn't believe you."
Lin Shuangwei said gratefully, "Thank you for your trust."
After getting up, Lin Shuang said to Wei Cheng, "Master Wei, I know that you look down on a martial artist like me, and I also know that I don't have your brain as powerful, but I am loyal to my lord."
Zuo Wei patted Lin Shuang's shoulder, "I believe in you."
Then he said to Wei Cheng, "Wei Cheng, I believe in Lin Shuang, he really won't be disloyal to me."
Wei Cheng is smart and has a lot of ideas, but after all, Lin Shuang has been by his side for so many years, and Zuo Wei is still more willing to believe in him in the end.
Wei Cheng suffered a secret loss, but he could only swallow this loss by himself, and said with slightly lowered his eyes: "I have no doubt about Brother Lin's intentions, I am just worried that Shen Zhao has too many eyes and deliberately makes a scene, probably because I am too worried."
Zuo Hui patted him on the shoulder, "I know your worries, you are my right-hand man, I hope you can get along well and do things for me, I will never treat you badly."
The two of them immediately saluted Zuo Hui, "But according to the orders of the adults!"
Zuo Xu curled his lips, "Since Shen Zhao really doesn't understand martial arts, and there is only one secret guard by his side, then if you lure his secret guard away and let him be arrested, you should have a way, right?"
Lin Shuang was stunned, "My lord, aren't you going to kill him?"
Zuo Wei said: "A waste who doesn't know anything about martial arts, I don't think it's easy to kill him? But if I arrest him, if Sheng Qingyuan really values him, then he will naturally come to me."
Lin Shuang scratched his head and said, "Then, wouldn't it be better to arrest Miss Sheng directly?"
Wei Cheng said, "What the lord wants is that she is willing."
Zuo Wei looked at him appreciatively, very satisfied with his answer, "Wei Cheng still understands me."
Lin Shuang: "............"
Just know the opportunistic dog thing!
Sooner or later, he will let the adults see his hypocrisy.
Zuo Wei ordered, "I still have something to do, you two have to discuss it carefully, I hope to see Sheng Qingyuan's arrival as soon as possible."
The two of them suppressed the thoughts in their hearts and replied in unison, "Yes."
