Zhu Hong roughly told what she knew.

After listening, Shen Yi in the consciousness space couldn't help muttering: "Heh, I said, old witch, your cousin named Zhu Yandong knows the matter but doesn't explain it to you, let you ask this girl, isn't it that the stupid son that the two nagging women said yesterday is him, he is afraid that you will laugh at him in your heart, it's really interesting." ”

Tsurumi Hatsukumo didn't respond to him, thinking about something to himself.

"Miss?"

Zhu Hong next to her saw that she was silent for a long time, and couldn't help but call.

When she came back to her senses, she asked again, "How much silver does my cousin owe to Wantailou?" ”

"I don't know, I heard what I said, and there are many things I don't know, there should be many, many things, definitely more than a few thousand taels."

Tsurumi Hatsukumo stopped talking again, and fell into deep thought again.

The carriage and horse jolted through the noisy old street, and no one knew that she was actually talking to Shen Yi.

"Xuan Li, tell me, what do you think would happen if I joined Ji Yuan Division directly?"

"Isn't it just to help your aunt?"

"You can also see that she is good to me, so let's help if you can."

"If you want me to say, I advise you to be cautious."

"Tell me why?"

"First of all, a question, do you know your aunt?"

"Uh...... I don't understand. Tsurumi didn't think too long and quickly replied.

"By the way, you can count half the palms of the faces you have met with your aunt, and you don't know what kind of person she is, how can you say help and help immediately?"

"Won't that help?"

"You stay, you can help, you have to see if she's worth your help?"

"What do you mean?"

"Observe and observe first, and then make plans after understanding something, and now back to the question of whether you want to join Jiyuan Division, my suggestion is no."

"Why?"

"It's not been a day or two since you were an alchemist, think about it yourself, how much can the refined pill be sold for?"

"That's a lot."

"Well, the alchemist's money is made in a hurry, and so much money is spent by the alchemist himself and the alchemist's family?"

"Hmmm......"

"It's not enough, is it? I ask you again, what is money? The money spent is called money, money is to circulate, the alchemist earns so much money just to eat, won't it be messed up after a long time? ”

"I see what you mean, business tax?"

"Yes, I don't know much about the laws of your dynasties, but anyway, the money earned by those alchemists who joined the Jiyuan Division must be taxed upwards, and it must be a very heavy kind, but also, those royal families give you rights, keep you safe, and let you respond to every call, and then you help them make money, a win-win situation, and it is not realistic for the alchemists to take all the benefits."

"Isn't what you're saying bad for you, all the pills I refined have been sold, what are you eating?"

"yes, what's the matter, you still want me to be hungry?"

"Where did I think about it?"

"Alright, I'm not done yet."

"You say."

"Think about it, Qiu Wuling, isn't there two guards around him, one is called Zaide, and the other is called Wuyong, in my opinion, they say that it sounds good to be called guards, and if it is ugly, it is two humanoid monitors, usually listen to you, but once you want to run away, there is no door."

"And then?"

"And then? Then it is inevitable that you help your aunt and Wan Jia to match the line, if the other side likes to fight with dogs, it is not good, then what Lin family will also end, if you join Jiyuan Division now, in case the situation is beyond your control and cannot be solved, you tell me, how do you run? Waiting to die? ”

"Then if I don't join Ji Yuan Division......

"Yes, if you don't join Jiyuansi, if the family here cooperates a little, won't you also make a lot of money? Things are out of control, you can run away at any time, if the matter just happens to be unmanageable for you, but it's not serious yet, it's not good, joining Jiyuan Division is equivalent to a life-saving talisman for you! ”

"Oh, it's a way to live!"

"Of course, if you don't join Jiyuan Division, how to choose, I don't need to say more, right?"

"Is this egoism?"

"Hmph, people don't kill for themselves, you can help others, but you have to make sure that you can live first, Made's saving people and killing themselves is not stupid?"

"But what if the person who needs to be saved is his own father? It's hard to ......."

"That's another problem, if my father and my mother are really at stake, then they must be saved at all costs...... Anyway, it's just to look at people, it's true that she's your aunt, but your family relationship shouldn't have reached the point of dying for each other, right? ”

"Uh-huh." Tsuru saw Hatsuyun snort twice, and then asked Youyou: "Xuan Li, if I am about to die, will you use your life to save me?" ”

"This ......" Shen Yi was stunned, he hadn't thought about this question at all, and vaguely remembered that she had asked himself before.

I think I've asked it several times, right?

How did you answer?

I don't remember.

But to be honest, getting along until now, if he knew that the old witch would die, he was really a little reluctant, he was used to her existence, if she suddenly disappeared one day, he was afraid that he would lose some kind of goal, as for whether he would use his life to save the other party, Shen Yi couldn't say, after all, he was really afraid of death, and it was very contradictory.

Those who have not died never know how terrible death is, but it is not a simple death.

The sense of emptiness after death will only make people crazy about everything in life, even if it is the suffering of the world, at least Shen Yi thinks so.

Hiss~ Why is this question so similar to the question of "who will save your girlfriend and mother first when they fall into the water"?

It's all embarrassing.

So Shen Yi pursed his lips, didn't answer at all, and asked rhetorically: "Hey, if it's me who dies immediately, will you use your life to save me?" It really is. ”

"I will!"

After speaking, he rolled his eyes, twisted his head and opened his mouth to suck out some red and yellow filaments into the shrine, but what he didn't expect was that the moment the words fell, Tsurumi Hatsumo answered, and he didn't even react.

Stunned for a moment, Shen Yi didn't hear it very really: "What are you talking about?" ”

"I said I would."

"Huh? This ......" the other party replied so quickly and so plainly affirmatively, that he couldn't get it all at once.

"Really...... It's true? ”

"Well, it's true."

"Why?"

"Because you are my contract beast, my ...... Loved ones, okay? ”

Shen Yi's eyes were glazed, he remembered that Tsurumi Hatsuyun had indeed asked himself a similar question before, but it sounded like a casual question, and his answers were very perfunctory, or he was ambiguous, and he had never thrown the question to the old witch.

And today, I asked her the question she asked herself, but her answer made her feel at a loss.

"What's wrong with you, it's time for you to answer, if I die soon, will you sacrifice your life to save me." Tsurumi Chuyun outside asked again, but Shen Yi in the consciousness space still had a stunned expression, he was not thinking about this question at all, and his mind was full of words.

No! Are you really?

He didn't realize that he didn't make a sound, and he repeated the six words in his head.

How to answer?

Is it casually prevaricating or answering sincerely?

But he wasn't sure if he would sacrifice his life to save him when this question came true.

After thinking for a while, just as he was about to say "yes" to cope with the past or comfort the other party, he heard a "knock" when the carriage suddenly stopped.

"What's going on up front?" Zhu Hong asked the driver in front of her with a puzzled face, but the other party did not respond.

Sensing that something was wrong, Tsurumi Hatsuyun no longer focused on Shen Yi, and looked outside, and when she saw it, her brows furrowed suddenly.

I saw that the road ahead blocked a thick rolling log, and the movement just now was made by this rolling log hitting the ground, and there were more than a dozen big men with steel knives standing around, looking at the carriage they were riding in with unkind faces.

Pedestrians passing by nearby occasionally cast curious glances, but they were quickly driven away by the big men wielding their blades.

Looking at their appearance, it is obvious that the target is themselves, but they don't know these people.

Tsurumi Hatsuun's brows furrowed even tighter, but it didn't take long for her to seem to understand something, her frowning brows relaxed, her eyes became deep, and there was a flash of coldness.

"Old witch, these people don't look like good people."

Without Shen Yi's reminder, Tsurumi Hatsuyun had already taken out the Rainbow Breaking Sword and waited quietly with an expressionless face.

Seeing that the carriage could no longer move forward, the big men outside carried steel knives on their shoulders and swaggered towards the carriage.

The coachman in front of him was already panicking and shouted, "Who are you! We are the people of the Zhu family! If you want to move, we have to weigh it carefully! ”

"Zhujia?" The few big men walking in front glanced at each other when they heard this, and laughed out loud in the next second.

"Hahahaha! Best wishes! Then we really have to weigh it up. ”

"In the carriage is the young lady of the Zhu family, come out and let everyone take a look, if you can't afford to offend, everyone will leave!"

"Get out of the car, don't hide."

"Over there, look at what! Fuck me off! If you look at what you shouldn't see, be careful to fold here! ”

Seeing these people so arrogant, the coachman didn't know what to say, he was originally using the Zhu family to scare and scare the other party, to see if he could scare the person away, if he couldn't scare away, he would be out of line, he was just an ordinary coachman, and he didn't even have a chance to fight back against these big men.

Regarding the identity of Tsurumi Chuyun, it has spread since she entered the Zhu Mansion yesterday, of course he knows that the current Tsurumi Yanqiu is just the nominal mother of the Zhu Mansion, and Tsurumi Chuyun is just a bereaved dog who came to defect to relatives, and even the most marginal concubine of the Zhu family is not as good, what kind of power can it have?

Because of this, he didn't dare to speak, trembling, praying that the other party was only looking for Tsurumi Hatsukumo alone, and it would be good if he didn't exist at all.

Perhaps the prayer really worked, but after laughing and mocking a few words at first, the big men ignored him, strode to the carriage, and without asking the people inside if they agreed, they directly pulled the car and looked in.

When he saw the appearance of the two people inside, this person was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at the others, and said in surprise: "Everyone! Come and see! There's a little girl's skin in there that looks good! ”

"Let me see...... Eh! ”

"Get out of the way! I'd like to see what it is. ”

"Don't squeeze!"

“……”

Tsurumi Hatsukumo had a cold face the whole time, but this expression made the big man outside even more excited.

"These little eyes! I like it! ”

"Looks like the owner has sent us a big job!"

"Girl! How about you come with me? ”

Zhu Hong in the carriage was so frightened that she clung to Tsurumi Hatsukumo, holding her sleeve with her face full of nervousness.

"Miss......"

Patting the back of her hand, Tsuru saw that Hatsuyun was very calm, but his eyes flashed with cold killing intent from time to time, in her eyes, these people were already dead.

She didn't do it immediately, but looked at a big man who poked his head into the car, and asked in a deep voice, "You were sent by Zhu Birong?" ”

"Huh? How do you ......?"

"Zhu Birong? We don't know what Zhu Birong is, come down quickly and come with me obediently. ”

"Where are you taking me?"

"Where else can I go? looks so handsome, it's a pity not to be the top brand! ”

"Reward to the boss, maybe our brothers will meet tonight! Isn't it! ”

"Hahaha, yes!"

"Come down! Don't ink! Ink again to break your legs and feet! ”

"Did you hear that, little lady? If you don't come down yet, these brothers of mine will break your legs and feet. ”

The big man who took the lead threatened with a smile, and Tsuru saw that Chuyun's face did not change, but his voice became cold: "I will give you ten breaths of time, carry the things in front of you, and let us pass, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." ”

The other party didn't take her words seriously at all, and still said with a smile: "What's the law?" ”

"You can try."

"Hehe, try it! Brothers, did you hear what she said? She said she was going to be polite to us! ”

"Hahahaha!" The big men laughed, but they didn't know that death was quietly approaching.

Tsuru saw that Hatsukumo stopped talking, and silently counted down in his heart.

The time for ten breaths soon came, and the big man who took the lead looked into the carriage again and mocked: "Little lady, the time is up, let's talk about it, you have to be ...... to me."

Puff~

Halfway through his words, a sharp sword qi flew out, not giving people time to react at all, piercing his forehead on the spot, leaving a bloody hole that shocked the night.

The expression of the leading man who spoke froze, and the next second he fell straight to the ground, leaving no last words.

For a moment, the surrounding air was quiet, and it took several seconds for someone to come back to their senses.

"Dead ...... He's dead? ”

"This killed our people!"

"She's looking for death!"

"Kill her!"

"Brothers! Above! ”

"Ahh

The screams of the leading man when he died were clearly seen by the beads in the carriage, she screamed, and subconsciously wanted to catch Tsurumi Hatsuun, but when she turned her head, she didn't know when she had gotten off the carriage, holding a sword in one hand, red clothes like blood, and murderous in her eyes.

More than a dozen big men with weapons rushed up, but the sword light swept through, and blood and severed heads and swords flew into the air.
