Extra-three business

It's a pitch black sewer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Hundreds of years ago, not long after the founding of the country, when the "wise minister" Halwa Kalabyan proposed to imitate the model of the capital of two generations of empires, the triumphal capital, the sooner the better, when the capital had just been built and the city was not yet built, when the sewer network was dug under the newly established Yongxing City, the old Tormund I thought about it for a whole day, and began this great project, which made the six great families cry bitterly at that time, and later generations of subjects praised it.

Tomund had only one condition: the underground of the Fuxing Palace, which was under construction, was a forbidden area for sewer networks.

Perhaps many subsequent generations of kings would have been pleased with Tormund's condition, for in the days of John I alone, the criss-crossing sewers under the royal capital had become the easiest and quickest means of commuting and concealing in the kingdom's illegal underground world, which every royal garrison and chief of the guard department could not do.

In the dark, two men in tights fell silently down the sewer.

Not even the water splashed.

The two of them slowly stood up, and the position and vision they were standing in were just enough to cover each other's blind spots.

The question is, can they really see clearly in the darkness?

"Bang! bang!"

Applause came from the darkness deeper down the sewers.

The two men looked at each other and turned in the direction from which the applause had come.

"What a daring artist!"

The lingua franca with a Far Eastern accent came from the darkness in the depths: "The most famous of the Saliton brothers!

The figure of a third man appeared from the darkness, he was wearing an oriental robe that was rare in the Western Continent, and the applause seemed to be quite rhythmic, and his voice was sharp and soft.

The three of them confronted each other for a few seconds.

"I've seen your portrait. One of the men said indifferently:

"You are Teng, the eunuch of the palm seal of the night king's court. ”

"It's the former eunuch of the palm seal. Teng let out a weird shrill laugh and corrected the man's statement:

"I lost my job three years ago. ”

Teng secretly raised his vigilance in his heart: in the dark, he relied on the ability of the "heart eye" to move freely, and the other party actually looked at the day and saw his appearance clearly.

"I heard that the newly enthroned Yao King Chenxin," the man's expression could not be seen in the darkness, but his voice was particularly bleak and chilling: "A sky-high reward has been offered for you, and you can only escape to the Western Continent and take refuge in the Shadow Shield." ”

The brother beside him, cherishing words like gold, repeated the point of the former: "Sky-high!"

Teng's pupils shrank.

Damn the assassins.

"O Ji Si Chen, alas," Teng first showed a sad expression, and said something that the Saliton brothers did not understand, and then immediately changed into a smile: "Let a woman rule in the night--this is a sign of the destruction of the country, if you take my head and drift across the sea, only to find that the night is already a sea of fire, who will you ask for the bounty?"

"Don't talk nonsense," the man who spoke first said indifferently, "The Shadow Shield lights up the covenant and asks us to come here, what about the Shadow Lord himself?"

Teng has a particularly friendly smile.

He clasped his hands together, lifted them on his chest, nodded slightly to the two of them, and made a Far Eastern salute.

"It's not talented," Teng raised his head, and said word by word with rhetoric with Far Eastern characteristics: "It is the Shadow Shield, the contemporary shadow master." ”

His words made both men frown deeply.

Silent.

The two men exchanged shocked and solemn glances quickly and silently.

After a while, the man who spoke first said coldly, "The Shadow Shield has changed its owner again, when did it happen?"

"The night before yesterday. Teng replied patiently.

The Saliton brothers were silent for a moment.

So, the most terrifying killer organization since the end of the war is in the hands of this newcomer to the Far East?

"Wuyi Wei raised your special kill level to 'Zi'," the man who spoke first said slowly, "It seems that it is not without reason. ”

Hearing the words "Wuyiwei", Teng carefully concealed the hatred and anger in his eyes.

"Alas, Commander Lin really thinks of meβ€”alas, he will never marry the woman he loves," Teng sighed with a seemingly regretful sigh:

"It seems that I also have to correspondingly, in the Shadow Shield, to raise King Yao's special kill level to 's'. ”

Teng didn't care about talking about the big men in power in the Night Dynasty, but the two men in front of him didn't seem to be interested in even the slightest.

"Why did you choose Yongxing City?" the man who spoke first asked, "Xingchen and Sue Ye are allies. Not long after King Yao ascended the throne, Eddie II and Morat will be happy to capture you as a gift for her accession to the throne. ”

Really perceptive, and asked directly about the crux of the matter.

Teng snorted lightly:

"Trust me, the Kingdom of the Stars will soon be too busy to take care of itself. ”

Teng smiled sinisterly and said, "Of course, Morat's lackeys have very sharp noses, and we should pay attention to it, and, for some reason, the relationship between the Blood Vial Gang and us is very poor......"

"So I had to grieve the two of you and meet me underground. ”

The two men understood the meaning of Teng's words, glanced at each other, and exchanged countless messages in an instant.

"Sure enough, you won't be at ease anywhere," the man who spoke first snorted softly: "In the Eastern Continent, the country and the people are harmed, and when you come to the Western Continent, you also want to fan the flames." ”

"It's too much," Teng chuckled:

"Are you Big Saliton or Little Saliton?"

"Ba'an Knight. The man who spoke first said.

Teng let out another long laugh: "Oh, it turns out that you are the famous 'Flying Locust Blade'! Then the other one must be the Great Saliton, the 'Scarlet Aria' Lordane......?

"You know what, yin-yang man," little Saliton, Ba'an Knight, interrupted him unceremoniously, "We really want to cut off your head in exchange for a bounty." ”

Teng suddenly froze.

Big Saliton, Loerdan, who cherished the words like gold, coldly took his brother's words: "Get to the point. ”

Teng's expression was imperceptible at first, and then immediately changed back to a smile: "Shadow Shield, I want to cooperate with your family for a big business." ”

Little Saliton directly shook his head and vetoed:

"You have the vast majority of the market and customers, and we specialize in the big business that is difficult and difficult - this is the Assassin's Covenant that the twenty-eighth and third generation of Sarridon and the third generation of Shadow Lords have made in front of the statue of the god of the night, and it cannot be violated. ”

The Great Saliton silently added, "The sword and the shadow, Mo invade each other (shadow_and_blade, _none_crosses_the_boundary.)." ”

Teng laughed happily: "We Far Easterners don't believe in God, let alone the dark night that has disappeared for countless years!"

He lowered his head and said slyly, "And today, since the seventy-third generation of the Shadow Lord is a Far Easterner, the Assassin Covenant may as well be flexible. ”

"Far Easterners?" Little Saliton sneered disdainfully, "In the days of the Ancient Empire, you were only slaves. ”

Teng's eyes were cold, and he said in a low voice: "But the empire has never conquered the Far East, no matter how many sieges it has experienced, the Qilin Holy City still stands - the only people who can be reduced to slaves in the ancient empire are prisoners of war." ”

"Enough. Big Sariton interrupted the two: "If nothing else, there will be a time later." ”

"Wait!" Teng called out to the two brothers as they were about to leave.

Teng sighed deeply.

"The Saliton family originated from the tower of alchemy before the Age of Empires, and the 'spellbreakers' of battle mages. ”

His voice is heard in the sewers, as if telling a story to the students.

The Sariton brothers change color at the same time!

Feeling the drastic changes in the brothers' faces with his heart, Teng chuckled:

"More than a thousand years ago, although the Far East was repeatedly ravaged by the invasion and ravages of ancient empires, if there is one benefit, that is, although the Far East has changed dynasties, civilization has never stopped. In the Suye Dynasty alone, the rise and fall of the Chen royal family, the ancient history records are full of sweat and cattle...... For example, the details of the Sariton family. ”

"So what?" said little Sariton coldly, "are you going to crush us with books?"

Teng nodded lightly in his heart: It seems that he has grasped the point.

He stepped forward slowly:

"In the Imperial Age, you were known as 'Mage's Nightmare' and 'Assassin who was not afraid of magic', and you were one of the few Assassin families who could break through the layers of court mage's defenses and hit their targets directly, hence the nickname 'Flower of Assassins'. ”

Teng took two more steps, "tsk" twice, as if admiring: "You used to be so famous, those who heard it shuddered, and those who listened to it were shocked, and you even took over the business across the continent: the famous 'mourning monarch' of the Dawn Dynasty died under your sword." ”

"What's your ethnic language?" Teng scratched his head, and then suddenly patted it: "Oh, yes!"

"If the devil is broken, your life will be dead. (death_calls_when_magic_falls.)”

But then, as if thinking of something terrible, he shook his head, frowned deeply, and his face showed pain, and his words changed:

"It's a pity...... Woe was born. ”

Little Saliton clenched his fists slightly.

"The three magic towers were destroyed one after another, the mages were scattered, and the inheritance was cut off. ”

Teng shook his head and said as he strolled:

After the end of the war, magic was strictly forbidden, and for decades, when the last mage died under strict guard, magic was completely extinct. ”

Great Saritaton's pupils began to slowly retract.

Teng continued to sigh: "From now on, there are no more mages in the nobles' seats, there is no longer magic in the basic curriculum of the royal family, the mage establishment in the army has disappeared, and the big men no longer have effective anti-assassination and anti-hiding methods based on magic. ”

As a result, the difficulty of assassination was greatly reduced, and the conditions for assassins were greatly reduced, so that even those who did not know magic could succeed in assassination if they were taken by surprise. ”

Grand Sariton frowned slightly.

"So since the end of the war, different assassin killers have emerged one after another, even the most amateur people, who only need to die, and have a knife in their hands, dare to be killers, oh - our Shadow Shield has also risen from this, encompassing most of the assassination business. ”

Little Saliton took a deep breath and looked at his brother, but Big Saliton didn't respond, just stared at Teng.

"Poor Salitun, there are more of us, and there are all kinds of other assassin killers, and there is less and less business to take on - anyway, the mages are gone, why hire the Assassin Flower at a high price if they can assassinate their targets at a low cost?"

Teng turned around and laughed:

"Also, when the dragons disappear, what is the use of the dragon slaying technique?"

The Saliton brothers' faces became more and more ugly.

"It's a pity that for hundreds of years, Saliton has gradually fallen into the cold, and no one cares. ”

"The number of people is getting smaller and smaller, and the skills are getting more and more scarce. ”

Teng Chang sighed, with a sad look on his face: "No wonder, without business, there is no money...... And without money, there is no inheritance. ”

"So the flower of the once glorious Assassins, in this generation, the Assassins who can still wield the sword," Teng raised his eyes, looking at Lordan and Baan Knight:

"It's just the two of you. ”

Teng chuckled and shook his head: "The family of two people, tsk." ”

The Saliton brothers did not react for a long time.

But Teng knew he had reached his goal.

"I don't know how long can I hold the knife at the age of Yixian Kunzhong? Ten years, twenty years, thirty years?" Teng shook his head with a title with Far Eastern characteristics: "When I look back on the history books and read the first dynasty, the rise and fall of a generation of families, it is always emotional. ”

Teng's eyes showed a mysterious color: "The show is on stage, but at the end of the curtain, the scenery is infinite, but the sunset has arrived, how can this not make people sigh?"

There was a long silence.

"The inheritance of the Saliton family, you don't have to talk too much. ”

Little Saliton, Ba'an Nate couldn't hold back, and spoke decisively, with a slight anger in his voice: "We have the best assassin seeds in each generation, and they can bloom into the most dazzling assassin flowers in the future. ”

Ba'an Nate clenched his fists, and his eyes burned like flames.

Sariton will not die in our generation.

Absolutely not.

Absolute.

Looking at his brother's appearance, LordΓ‘n narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Of course, Yixian Kunzhong is so good, I believe that your next generation will also be the most dazzling Assassin flower. ”

Teng smiled and nodded: "Your 'Spellbreaker' skills are not used, but when it comes to the knife techniques used in assassination, they are still the strongest in the world, so our Assassin's Covenant will put you in charge of the highest-end big business." ”

"But ah," Teng's words took a turn of words, and his tone was strange:

"If buyers don't like to read history books as much as I do, and don't know the prestige of Saliton, how can they come to them?"

Little Saliton exhaled softly, and Big Saliton remained motionless.

Teng patted his head, turned around and said:

"So, I'm thinking. β€œ

"A world-famous assassination ......"

"An unprecedented shot ......"

"An action ...... that shocked the world"

Little Saariton's breathing gradually increased, and Big Sariton's brow became tighter and tighter.

Teng slowly approached, and his words were full of demagogy:

"Will it be the icing on the cake for Sariton's immortal reputation......"

"What about reviving the prestige of the Flower of Assassins?"

Teng Haha smiled:

"It's time to remind the world's buyers who have been in peace for too long because of the extinction of magic. ”

The eyes of the Assassin brothers were fixed on him.

Teng clapped his hands lightly, and his eyes were extremely deep: "Who is the best assassin of all time, the most terrible killer?"

"Most importantly, remind them," Teng's eyes flashed, and his tone was quiet, adding the last dose of fierce medicine to the assassin brother in front of him:

"The oldest and most profound Assassin family, the most terrifying in the world......"

"Not only is it not extinct. ”

"And it will rise again. ”

"It's as prosperous as ever. ”

The Saliton brothers' breathing became struggling.

Teng Matsu's serious expression opened his eyes and smiled:

"Presumably, by then, the business of the Saliton family will also be full of customers, right?"

He raised his eyes and looked at his brother in front of him.

Silent.

More silence than ever.

During this long silence, Lordain and Ba'an Nate exchanged countless eyes and exchanged countless messages.

It wasn't until the end that the two brothers finally staggered their eyes.

Little Sariton turned to Teng with an expectant expression.

With the dignity of Sariton for thousands of years, and the hope of a comeback, "Flying Locust Blade" took a step forward.

"It's better to have a good business. ”

Ba'an Nate said coldly.

Teng exhaled comfortably from his nose, as if he had just inhaled the most wonderful aroma in the world.

He burst into laughter and applause:

"Hahahahaha......haha

"I promise, with my life, it's definitely a big business like never before!"

In the eyes of the Saliton brothers, they saw Teng, who had laughed enough, and slowly spread out his hands, his eyes showing a fierce light:

"It's too big for you to imagine. ”
