Chapter 33: Blood Shadow
The west sun shines on the bustling streets, shining on the abrupt horizontal cornices, gusts of cold wind blowing, the signboard flags of teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, and workshops on both sides of the street flutter back and forth, the flow of cars and pedestrians is endless, and there are many small vendors with big umbrellas in the open field. The sound of shouting and shouting came and went, and it drifted to the Heyue Teahouse.
Xu Zining stood by the window of Feng Yaju on the second floor, holding a teacup that was already cold in his hand, staring at the movement outside, the seemingly lively and peaceful street, I'm afraid it has already been murderous, right?
Xu Weixiang, who was dressed in a strong suit, was full of worry, opened his mouth and closed his mouth several times, and finally asked, "This matter is not trivial, are you really not going to report the Linxiu Dart Bureau?"
Xu Zining pretended to smile lightly, "How can you think it is so serious?" I think you have been following the senior brother for a long time, and everywhere looks like a battlefield, right?"
Xu Weixiang opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything after all, after all, he was assigned to Xu Zining by Li Zifeng, and he had already been persuaded to persuade him, as for other words, he was inconvenient to say any more, it didn't work if it was light, and it didn't comply with the rules if it was heavy. Just when the atmosphere was silent, Gu Xuan, the shopkeeper of the teahouse, knocked on the door and entered.
Gu Xuan's breathing was not even even, and the two of them asked almost in unison, "How is it?"
Gu Xuan didn't care about the number of courtesies, poured a cup of tea and drank it all, "I went to the Qingyan Building for a turn, the girl named Yiruo you ordered that day is no longer there, it is said that she was redeemed by someone else." ”
Xu Weixiang was stunned, he always felt that things were not so simple, Xu Zining smiled quietly, "She definitely doesn't have the good luck of Aina, and nine times out of ten she was killed by that person named Ashqi." ”
"Extinguishing the mouth, just because she told Aina's life experience?" Xu Weixiang was puzzled, "But having said everything, wouldn't it be superfluous to kill the mouth again?"
"Maybe everything she told us that day was also a trap laid by Ash? Maybe Ashqi wanted to buy her, and first tested her tone with some inconsequential news, but I didn't expect... Man dies for money, and birds die for food. Xu Zining said, shaking his head helplessly.
"Then aren't we?" Xu Weixiang was shocked, and his heart was more helpless, "Second son, you are too risky, you know what Ashqi is like, and you still risk staying, if there is an accident, how can your subordinates ......?"
"Rest assured. Xu Zining gently patted Xu Weixiang's shoulder, "My guess has never been accurate, so you can go to Qingyan Building with me tonight to see the sample goods, and set off for the mountain after you are done." ”
"If you want to return to the mountain safely, I'm afraid it's not so easy!"
A familiar voice came, although it was threatening, but it was still difficult to hide the reassuring feeling, everyone turned around, and saw that it was Li Zifeng in dark clothes, after a salute, Xu Zining was a little surprised, "Senior brother, can you speak?"
Li Zifeng was so angry that he laughed, and stared straight at Xu Zining, "I heard that the second son entered the place of fireworks, and when he was in a hurry, he was able to speak." The second son grew up, frequently went in and out of the fireworks, spent a lot of money, and watched the singer play the piano and dance, which really impressed me. I don't know which girl the second son has a crush on? Do you want me to inform the master and take her back to the mountain together?"
Listening to Li Zifeng call himself a second son, Xu Zining instantly felt that his heartbeat stopped for half a beat, cold sweat was dripping on his forehead, and he couldn't look directly at Li Zifeng's ice-like eyes and the face that seemed to be smiling, Xu Weixiang even twisted his face to the side, pretending to observe the movements around him, this little action was still fully seen by Li Zifeng.
"Don't look at it, the details sent by Ashqi have all been secretly disposed of by me. After saying that, waving his hand, Shi Yi presented the dagger in his hand, Li Zifeng took the dagger and threw it at Xu Weixiang, Xu Weixiang subconsciously caught it and looked at it, the dagger is a double-edged weapon, and it is a protective weapon worn by Hengjiang people.
Xu Weixiang was startled, his knees fell to the ground, and he said, "It's the negligence of his subordinates." ”
Li Zifeng's cool gaze locked tightly on Xu Weixiang, and said coldly, "It's okay, if you forget how to protect the master, I don't mind letting you learn from scratch!"
Xu Weixiang was so red-faced that he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe the cold sweat oozing from his forehead, and he didn't even dare to come out, "My subordinates are guilty, please punish my son!"
Li Zifeng snorted coldly, "After returning to the mountain, I will go to the Elder of the Law Ring to receive the punishment by myself." ”
Xu Weixiang was stunned, he had made mistakes in the past, and he was punished behind closed doors, this was the first time he had been ordered to go to the Law Ring Hall to receive punishment, which showed how serious the crime was this time, but thinking of the strict methods of the Law Ring Elder, he couldn't help but shudder, and when he came back to his senses, he saw Li Zifeng's sharp eyes looking at him, and quickly kowtowed and responded, "Yes." ”
Seeing that Xu Weixiang was punished by himself, and was reprimanded so much that he couldn't explain it, Xu Zining was heartbroken, and simply knelt down, "Senior brother, don't blame Xu Guard, the situation is special, and we can't ...... it."
Li Zi's eyes were cold, he reached out and pinched Xu Zining's chin, forcing him to raise his head and look at him, "You don't have to plead, your problem is more serious than his." The disciples of the head of the sect frequently go in and out of the land of fireworks, how do you say you should be punished?"
Xu Zining was dripping in cold sweat, and said unwillingly, "Senior brother, we are also here to probe ......"
Li Zifeng frowned, and said in a deep voice, "The exotic singer Aina, who was taken back to the palace by King Qingping, was originally the princess of Hengjiang Chiguo, and her original name was Mo Yishan. After the Chi Kingdom was exterminated by the emperor's troops, Mo Yishan assumed the alias Aina, hid many times, escaped, and was forced to make a living, so he had to devote himself to the lurking of the light smoke building, and did not sell his body. Secretly looking for an opportunity, assassinating the princes and magnates who came to Qingyan Lou to have fun to relieve the hatred of destroying the country, this time reaching an agreement with the king of Qingping, I am afraid that there is an ulterior purpose. ”
All three of them were stunned......
"If you want to find out about this, there are ways. Li Zifeng let go of Xu Zining and threw his cold gaze over, "Understood?"
Xu Zining sat down paralyzed, "Senior brother, I was wrong. ”
"When is Ash going to show you a sample of the suits in the Light Smoke Building?"
For Li Zifeng's uncertain prophet, the three of them were no longer surprised, and Xu Zining also replied honestly, "Tonight, there is a private room on the second floor of the Light Smoke Building at the corner. ”
Li Zifeng nodded, so calm that he couldn't see the slightest emotion, Xu Zining hesitated and said, "Senior brother, can you not tell the master about my visit to the Qinglou first?"
Li Zifeng laughed angrily, "What's the matter, do you have the guts to do it, but don't have the guts to bear it?" he said, looking at Xu Zining playfully, "Second son, let's think about how to leave Weicheng alive first!"
After that, Li Zifeng looked at Gu Xuan again, Gu Xuan's heart trembled, he knew what he was thinking without asking, he couldn't avoid Li Zifeng's compelling gaze, he couldn't dodge, so he simply greeted him calmly, "Shaodong, what do you command?"
Li Zifeng listened and smiled indifferently.
At the end of the unitary period, the luxuriously decorated, exotic light smoke building has not been affected in any way, and it is still full of people, there are girls who smile like flowers when they solicit customers on the street, and there are girls who are still unfinished and pouting to send off guests. Some children of rich families, dignitaries and dignitaries couldn't resist the temptation, and walked in directly with beautiful girls and laughing.
In the lobby, the smoke is filled, the singing and dancing are leveled, the aroma is full, and the sound of silk and bamboo musical instruments is endless, bypassing the noisy place, stepping up the wooden steps, passing through the long corridor, until a quiet open space, Ashqi is dressed in transverse clothes, sitting idly on a chair, making people look at the unpredictable, sweeping the songs and dances downstairs over and over again, and the spectators who are fascinated by the singing and dancing.
After a long time, a masked man dressed in a transverse costume gradually approached, stood still in front of Ash, and bowed in a proper manner, "Boss." ”
Ashki picked up the teacup and took a sip, "What's going on with them?"
"They're fine, nothing is going wrong. ”
Ashqi sneered, "Where's the thing?"
"The boss can rest assured that the things are in the hands of his subordinates and are safe and sound. ”
"Very good. Ash's eyes flashed with bloodthirsty killing intent, "Tonight, I will make this light smoke building their cemetery!"
