Chapter 58: The Death of the Assassins
The middle-aged shopkeeper saw that Xiao Che quickly found his secret room, which made his face pale. He knew exactly what was going to happen next. At this time, he was also frowning, as if he was thinking about how to deal with it.
Although he was trained to deal with torture, he knew that it was not enough to deal with truly inhuman torture. After all, as an enemy, it is not too much to use any means on him.
"You're a spy of Beiyan. You know I'm one of the leaders of the Xuan Gang. You've heard of Murong Qing and Murong Ming. You should know who they are, and I will tell you that there are people in your organization. If I ask them to find out the details of you, do you think they can find out? Xiao Che's tone was calm, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was saying to the middle-aged shopkeeper.
It's such a simple word, which makes the middle-aged shopkeeper's face change suddenly. How did he not know the identity of Murong Qing's sister and brother. They are the sons and daughters of the former prince. It is also the true orthodoxy of the Northern Yan royal family. When Emperor Yu killed the crown prince and usurped the throne, they escaped, and now they have officially raised their flag against Emperor Yu.
Their sister and brother have a lot of support in Beiyan. If there are also people in the upper echelons of his organization, the middle-aged shopkeeper can't believe it. Xiao Che's meaning is very clear. If he didn't say that Xiao Che would not only make him tortured, but also let the high-ranking people in the organization who were inclined to the Murong siblings thoroughly investigate his identity, so that his family could be found.
Then what will Xiao Che do next, he doesn't dare to resemble him at all. Xiao Che said such a simple sentence, which made him feel a deep sense of powerlessness. He knew that this was Xiao Che's threat. But he was really scared.
He was not afraid that Xiao Che would torture him, but that he had to think about his family. If he hadn't met his wife back then, the sins he suffered in his early years would have broken him down. What's more, his wife is still such a gentle and kind woman, and he also has two children, a son and a daughter. The son is so smart, and the daughter is so well-behaved. As a man, he could only do his best to protect them.
He regrets it very much now, if it weren't for his desire for profit, he wouldn't have joined the organization, even if his cultivation is far less than now, but he still lives a solid life. But now, his fate is completely out of his own hands.
It made him feel ridiculous and pathetic. But he was just an ordinary martial artist, and he couldn't change anything at all, and now he didn't know what he should do. He was not only afraid that Xiao Che would hurt his family, but also that the organization would attack his family if they learned that he was caught by Xiao Che. It made him want to cry without tears.
He's going crazy now. If he could really go crazy, he would definitely choose to go crazy, so that he would not know anything, and even his family would be spared. But he didn't even have the right and strength to become a madman and a fool. He could only choose to bow his head.
"Xiao Yuan, don't force me, don't force me, I beg you to kill me, kill me quickly, don't hurt my family. I beg you. As he spoke, he knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Che.
Soon his forehead was a blur of flesh and blood.
"You don't have a choice. Xiao Che was not moved by this at all.
"Ahhh The next moment, the middle-aged shopkeeper howled like crazy.
"Help me find the rest of the people, I won't kill you, and even your family will be safe. Just when the middle-aged shopkeeper was about to fall into despair and madness, Xiao Che's words made him sober up.
"However, if the organization knew about it, my family would not be able to live. Hearing Xiao Che's words, the middle-aged shopkeeper's emotions were not so excited, but he still hesitated.
"Again, you don't have a choice, help me, you and your family may still have a chance of life, if you don't help me, you will die, your family will only end up more miserable. Now I'm going to hear your answer. Xiao Che's tone was still calm.
"Okay, I'll help you. He didn't let Xiao Che wait too long, the middle-aged shopkeeper chose to promise Xiao Che to find out all the assassins in the city, and the middle-aged shopkeeper knew that once he took this step, there was no possibility of turning back. But he had to, because, as Xiao Che said, he had no choice. It is also sad to be weak.
"This is the Bone Destroying Pill, after this matter is done, I will naturally give you the antidote. Saying that, Xiao Che took out a red pill and threw it at the middle-aged shopkeeper.
This made the middle-aged shopkeeper's hand tremble subconsciously. Although he had never heard of this medicine, just by hearing the name, he knew that this medicine was absolutely terrifying. Without saying anything, he immediately took the pill.
The fiery red pill melted in the mouth, and a spicy and bitter burning sensation ran from the tongue to the stomach. It makes the middle-aged shopkeeper miserable. But he could only endure it, which also made him even more convinced that this thing was highly poisonous. If you don't get the antidote, I'm afraid it will really break your intestines and bones.
Then Xiao Che let go of his restrictions. Ask him how he can contact the others.
At this time, the middle-aged shopkeeper did not hide anything from Xiao Che, and told everything he knew.
He also didn't know who the Assassins were, or even how to contact them. However, he was able to reach his upline. According to the information she provided, Xiao Che's mind was running quickly, and soon he thought of a solution.
Now the assassins in the city had no idea what Xiao Che's injuries were. Xiao Che's method is to pretend to be seriously injured. Then create an accident, so that the middle-aged shopkeeper inadvertently bumped into it. The middle-aged shopkeeper then reports the matter to the upline, if his upline can take the opportunity to get them to continue with the assassination mission. Then it would be possible to lure out the Assassins in the city again.
In this way, the middle-aged shopkeeper and Xiao Che conspired, not only could these assassins kill all of them, but also find the middle-aged shopkeeper's upline and injure him, and then the middle-aged shopkeeper would pretend to come forward to rescue his upline. In this way, Xiao Che's goal was achieved, and the middle-aged shopkeeper would not arouse the suspicion of the organization.
Hearing that a feasible solution had been thought of in such a short period of time, this made the middle-aged shopkeeper even more afraid of Xiao Che. He even wondered if Xiao Che's mind was really something that humans could have.
It is the saddest thing to be against such a person. This made the middle-aged man warn himself that no matter what happened to him, he would never be an enemy of Xiao Che from now on. If he is lucky not to die this time, he will definitely take his family incognito and leave the country. Don't get involved in these things anymore.
Xiao Che didn't know that he could let the middle-aged shopkeeper have such an idea, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care at all.
Soon, Xiao Che and the middle-aged shopkeeper customized the plan in detail. Everything is according to Xiao Che's words. Xiao Che came secretly today, and he will go back secretly. Tomorrow, Xiao Che will walk into this shop openly.
From this moment on, Xiao Che's plan had already begun.
Soon Xiao Che returned to the inn as if nothing had happened.
After Xiao Che left, the middle-aged shopkeeper was also sitting on a chair, and he realized that the sweat on his body had soaked his clothes at some point.
The next day, Xiao Che acted according to the plan and came to the small shop, and the middle-aged shopkeeper cooperated very well. They pretended not to know each other, and they also introduced Xiao Che to the exotic artifacts in the store. Xiao Che is like a wandering traveler, picking and choosing, but he just doesn't buy anything.
That night, after the store closed, the middle-aged shopkeeper contacted his superior and informed him of the encounter with Xiao Che. His superior obviously had a hard time believing his words, and although he was full of praise for the middle-aged shopkeeper, his heart was full of doubts. This superior planned to go to Xiao Che's place to see it in person.
Xiao Che had also been pretending to be trying to cover up his injuries in the inn room, but his face was pale, his lips were chapped, and his breathing rhythm was disordered. It's clear that there are injuries on the body. All this was seen by the superiors of the middle-aged shopkeeper. He watched Xiao Che try his best to hide his injured appearance, which made him feel overjoyed. At this time, he completely believed that Xiao Che was really seriously injured.
Xiao Che knew that someone was coming, but he didn't know that it was the middle-aged shopkeeper's superior who came out in person, no matter what, Xiao Che believed that his acting skills should be able to deceive people.
But even when he felt that he was gone, Xiao Che did not relax his vigilance and continued to pretend to act. He was afraid that someone would kill him, after all, there was nothing wrong with being careful.
The next day, Xiao Che continued to pretend to be sick. As a result, nothing happened during the day, but Xiao Che faintly sensed that someone was spying on him.
He pretended to be unaware and still wandered the streets every day. He even went to the pharmacy on purpose, of course, not to buy healing medicine, but to buy some ginseng and other great tonic medicines. After Xiao Che left, someone came to investigate, this person was also a secret agent under the command of the middle-aged shopkeeper's superiors, and he was very excited to see that Xiao Che had bought a lot of powerful tonic medicines.
Generally speaking, people who have been seriously injured are not suitable for strong tonics, which will not only not help to heal the wounds, but will overdraw their vitality. That's how it is. This made him feel that although Xiao Che looked alive at the moment, his body was already strong on the outside.
That's what Xiao Che wants. It's to make them think that their bodies are actually no longer good. In order to convince them completely, it is not possible to show it directly, which will make them suspicious. But if they show the appearance of trying to cover up the serious injury, then they will be much less suspicious. Coupled with Xiao Che's subsequent series of deceptions and behaviors, this made them believe in Xiao Che's judgment of serious injuries even more.
In this way, they will make a move, and Xiao Che will have a chance to annihilate these assassins in one fell swoop.
This went on for days. On this day, the middle-aged shopkeeper really got an order from his superiors to continue to assassinate Xiao Che. So under the strict investigation of the Xiangcheng law enforcement team, these assassins gathered towards Xiao Che, and this time the superior of the Venerable Realm cultivator personally took action, and he would definitely be able to get rid of the seriously injured Xiao Che completely.
It's just that they would never have thought that there would be betrayal among their people, and these are simply the bureaus set up by Xiao Che.
While their plan was in full swing, the middle-aged shopkeeper informed Xiao Che of the news as soon as possible. The way they deliver their message is actually quite simple. The middle-aged shopkeeper has always had the habit of drinking goat's milk every day, and it was delivered by a teenage boy in Xiangcheng. In the past few days, Xiao Che has also ordered the same goat's milk in the name of the inn, but this has not passed directly through Xiao Che's hands, so they naturally will not pay attention to this.
In this way, the delivery of goat milk is usually carried by one person, and in terms of the division of the area where the goat milk is delivered, Xiao Che and the middle-aged shopkeeper happen to be in the same area.
In this way, Xiao Che gave the little boy a lot of spirit coins, and the little boy was naturally willing to accept this simple task.
Under the step-by-step calculations of Xiao Che and the middle-aged shopkeeper, these people finally fell for Xiao Che. The middle-aged shopkeeper received an order to assassinate Xiao Che this evening.
Xiao Che soon got the news. Beiyan, these secret agents of Emperor Yu, stared at Xiao Che's whereabouts, waiting for the evening to come. Soon, the middle-aged shopkeeper, superiors, and the rest of the killers were all ready.
With their patience waiting, evening finally came.
According to the plan, Xiao Che chose a shop that made bean curd, ate a bowl of bean curd, and then went back to the inn. This was Xiao Che's deliberate attempt to create an opportunity for the Assassins. In the evening, there are hardly any people here, so it doesn't attract too many people.
Xiao Che's bean curd hadn't finished drinking yet, and these people couldn't wait. I saw six cold rays of light passing by, heading towards Xiao Che's heart and head. At this time, Xiao Che's face was full of "shock", but he "touched" and fell backwards, as if he was frightened. But he dodged the attack perfectly.
This made several people angry. Except for the middle-aged shopkeeper, the other five people also thought that Xiao Che was just lucky to avoid it. The reason why Xiao Che didn't fight back at the first time was because the Venerable Realm boss hadn't made a move yet. This time, Xiao Che must wipe them all out and leave no trouble.
I saw that Xiao Che showed a weak appearance in the next moment, and dodged backwards one after another, seeing that Xiao Che showed signs of escaping, the six of them attacked desperately. However, Xiao Che was like a slippery loach, although he was forced to hurry, he actually did not suffer any injuries.
But in this situation, no one thinks of this. I saw that the speed of their attacks was getting faster and faster, and Xiao Che was even more "sweating like rain", as if he might hang up at any time. Such a strange scene didn't last long, only to see Xiao Che suddenly reveal a flaw, which made several people happy, Xiao Che was really seriously injured. Otherwise, how could a Venerable Realm be so embarrassed by several Hetian Realms.
At this moment, a spiritual power of Venerable Realm strength came from nowhere, and instantly attacked Xiao Che's body. Seeing such a domineering attack, this shocked the few people who attacked Xiao Che, and at this moment they almost thought at the same time that Xiao Che was finished.
The next moment something shocked them appeared, Xiao Che's body disappeared in place, as if it had been wiped out by the previous attack, and even the Venerable Realm superior who made the attack was shocked in his heart, when did his attack become so strong.
But he quickly reacted, and it turned out to be an afterimage that had attacked earlier. It made his body tense for a moment, and he tried to make the best defenses, but it was too late. In fact, before the Venerable Realm's attack could be unleashed, Xiao Che sensed a powerful aura fluctuation from his body.
At the same time as that Venerable Realm attacked, Xiao Che used his body technique to disappear without a trace, and took the first step in front of this Venerable Realm, only to see that the five fingers he had previously clenched into fists suddenly opened, penetrating and crushing the heart of this Venerable Realm when he had not reacted at this moment. The next moment, Xiao Che slapped his backhand and his brain burst.
This scene stunned everyone present. At this time, those assassins also reacted, Xiao Che was not seriously injured at all, all this was Xiao Che's layout, and now they only had one thought of escaping. This mission is a complete failure, and their only contact person was killed by Xiao Che with a palm, and now they don't even know where to go, but the five people except the middle-aged shopkeeper have surprisingly the same idea, no matter where it is, the farther away they are, the better,
How could Xiao Che and the middle-aged shopkeeper give them this opportunity, before Xiao Che could make a move, the middle-aged shopkeeper took the lead in attacking a teammate next to him and killed him with one blow, and that teammate couldn't believe it before he died.
The other four were also shocked, and then scattered and fled. Xiao Che naturally wouldn't let them run away. Taking advantage of the panic of the four people at the moment, Xiao Che turned on the Invisible Body Method, only to see that between dozens of breaths, all four of them were seriously injured by Xiao Che.
The middle-aged shopkeeper was not idle, and arrested the four people one by one, although there were not many people on the street, but there were still people who saw these, because of the battle, many people were afraid that they would be affected, and did not dare to watch here, but hid far away.
The law enforcement team soon got the news and rushed to the place as fast as they could, but they were still a step too late, and when they arrived in a hurry, they didn't even see a single figure, only the destroyed debris on the ground could prove that there had been a fierce battle here.
However, the law enforcement team is not vegetarian, and the identities of several people were soon discovered under their strict investigation.
On the street of exotic goods, the law enforcement team is rushing towards a store that has been open for more than ten years. There was only one guy in the store, and the law enforcement team took it down immediately, which scared the guy a lot, and asked him where his boss was, and the guy said that the boss had gone out to buy goods, and it would take half a month to come back.
The law enforcement team could not find the shopkeeper, so they could only seal the place and take the men away, and they had to take them back for strict interrogation. Hopefully, we can find some clues about the whereabouts of the shopkeeper.
Unbeknownst to them, the owner of the shop was diagonally across the alley. He watched it all. It was none other than Xiao Che, who had just cleaned up those assassins.
He and the middle-aged shopkeeper did not return to the store after arresting the four assassins, but imprisoned them in a mansion that Xiao Che had bought in the past few days. At the beginning, Xiao Che bought this mansion because he thought that the mysterious old man who didn't find the Sage Academy this time would come to Xiangcheng in the future. You can't always go to the inn to stay, after all, many things in the inn are not convenient.
Fortunately, although the house in Xiangcheng is not cheap, there is no pressure on Xiao Che, so he bought a quiet house in the prosperous place in the city, this house occupies a lot of land, and there is a large space and a deep underground secret room, Xiao Che took a fancy to this, so he bought it.
It was now home to the four Assassins. Fortunately, I didn't listen to the middle-aged shopkeeper and brought the four people to the store, otherwise they would have been blocked by the law enforcement team now. After closing the four of them, Xiao Che and the middle-aged shopkeeper were also paying attention to the dynamics of the law enforcement team, and sure enough, they followed the law enforcement team all the way and saw that they were raiding the middle-aged shopkeeper's shop.
