Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Promising Assassin

On the second day, in the inn, Jingfa was packing his bags and packing his clothes, he walked to Yao Cai's side, rubbed his fingers, and said with a smile: "Lao Cai, the first time I went out, you didn't give me a little expression?"

"Rubbing around itchy hands, itchy hands squatting on their own side to scratch, less dangling in front of me. Yao Cai hadn't recovered from Jing Fa's anger at the gold ingot, and turned his head away from him.

"I said Lao Cai, from Yangzhou to Xiangyang, there are more than a thousand miles of land, you should always give me some plates, do you want me to ask for food all the way?" Jing Fa walked up to Yao Cai and said with wide eyes.

"Aren't you very rich, rich people can even give away gold ingots, Jing Da Rich, just a few broken silver grains in my pocket, you can also see it? Roll, get out, I will be angry when I see you. With that, Yao Cai directly drove Jingfa out of the room and slammed the door with a bang.

Jing Fa sneered, slipped out a money bag from the sleeve of his right hand, held it in his hand and weighed it, and said with a smile: "Old Cai, old Cai, you think I don't know where you hid the money bag on your body." ”

Jingfa opened the money bag with a smile, and his face turned green after reading it.

The huge bag contained only three or four grains of broken silver, and the rest were small pebbles.

"His grandfather's is really slamming the door, and he must have found a place to hide the silver again. Jing Fa shook his head, and after putting away the broken silver, he picked up a few stones from the ground and stuffed them into the money bag, and threw them hard towards the window, only to hear Yao Cai let out an ouch.

Jing Fa smiled secretly, ignored Yao Cai's scolding from behind him, and walked out of the inn.

The destination of this commission was in Xiangyang, and it was said that a certain rich man had offended a group of hooligans, and the hooligans gathered a few people to come to the door to trouble the rich man, so the rich man had to entrust the Watsu Sect to personally protect him.

When Jing Fa first got this commission, he didn't know how many people looked at him with envy, because usually assassins who have reached the level of Enchantment have the opportunity to get assignment tasks, and Night Mandrill usually only operates near Yangzhou.

Assignments imply additional subsidies and are naturally much more rewarding than local assignments.

So when Jingfa, a newcomer who has just started, the outrageous newcomer with the lowest ranking and low ranking in the history of the door, and the newcomer who is said to have not even completed the first commission, got this task, how many people's eyes shot envious light, and everyone had already begun to talk about Jingfa's future in the door in private, and agreed that this young man was definitely quite promising, which made Jingfa flutter all over.

He felt that this commission might be because Zhou Er reported Bu Yinghao's evil deeds, and the upper echelons decided to reward him, so he was also at ease.

Before leaving, he repeatedly flipped through the information of this commission, and always felt that happiness came too suddenly.

"Don't just deal with a few little hooligans, as soon as my Uncle Jing makes a move, the silver will arrive in minutes. Jingfa hummed a little song and happily left Yangzhou City and headed for Xiangyang.

But the good mood lasted not long, and as soon as he was halfway through the journey, Jingfa found that the biggest problem in the world had fallen on him.

That is, there is no silver.

As the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and if you don't have money, your stomach growls.

Jing Fa touched his flattened stomach, swallowed his saliva, and scolded: "Damn old wealth, tell you to slam the door, put more silver on your body, and when I go back, I will definitely let you taste the taste of starvation, and give you the fat belly that is so fat." ”

Just when Jing Fa scolded Yao Cai in his mind, suddenly a strong fragrance wafted in the air.

"Goo!" the fragrance entered the nose, and the stomach immediately reacted to stress.

At this moment, there was another "goo".

Jing Fa turned his head to look, and saw a young man dressed as a Taoist priest standing not far away, just like himself at the moment, deeply attracted by the fragrance in the air, and his stomach was also very knowingly growling.

At this time, the Taoist priest also spotted Jingfa, and after the two looked at each other for a second, they suddenly rushed forward together, where there was the source of this wonderful fragrance.

The two were afraid of being preempted by the other party, so they rushed forward, using both hands and feet, and rushed forward frantically.

Jingfa opened his mouth wide as he ran, trying to suck all the fragrance in the air into his mouth.

And the Taoist priest was even more exaggerated, not only did he have a long mouth like Jing Fa, but his nostrils and ear holes also suddenly expanded, and his hands were desperately waving in front of him, not letting a trace of fragrance flow out, and inhaling all of them into his abdomen.

Watching the two madmen running and dancing, all the pedestrians on the road were stunned, and even more surprised was a vendor standing not far away.

He found that the end of the path where the two madmen ran seemed to be his own, and for a moment, he was so frightened that he couldn't do anything.

With a bang, Jingfa and the Taoist priest arrived at their destination almost at the same time, their rapid figures stopped abruptly, and their noses leaned over the steamer in front of them and sucked greedily.

"Well, the two guest officers, do you want to buy steamed buns?" the vendor asked slowly, swallowing.

Jingfa and the Taoist priest were still inhaling hard, and after a long time, they felt that the fragrance above the steamer had been all sucked up, and then they stopped, and said in unison: "Don't buy it." ”

The vendor was stunned for a moment, and then immediately waved his hand and shouted: "Let's go, why are you still in front of me if you don't buy it, stop me from doing business, go quickly." ”

When Jingfa and the two spoke in unison, they glanced at each other again, their eyes full of disdain.

"Hmph. ”

"Hmph. ”

The two snorted coldly, turned around and walked in different directions.

"Goo. ”

"Goo. ”

Almost at the same time, the stomachs of the two of them called the alarm in unison.

At this moment, I don't know who shouted: "Everyone go quickly, the Shi family has come to give food again." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of beggars in the street got up and rushed towards the end of the street.

And Jingfa was also shocked, and when he came back to his senses, he was already much behind the beggars, so he could only squeeze in the rear and surging forward with the flow of people.

"Everybody take your time, everybody has it, everybody has it. "At the door of Shi's house, the family members are maintaining order, letting the beggars line up one by one and take food in order.

Jingfa felt that today's scene was a little strange, in this small city, where did so many beggars pop up all of a sudden, could it be that beggars have become some glorious profession now?

Jingfa anxiously lined up at the back of the line, trying to cut a queue either by the beggar's eyes or stopped by the Shi Fu family, so he had no choice but to endure his hunger and slowly advance with the crowd.

In the process of queuing, he learned that some time ago, there was a major flood on the Yangtze River, which washed away many villages along the river, causing a large number of refugees to be displaced and homeless, and they had to beg everywhere to survive.

At that moment, suddenly, he saw a beggar in the queue in front of him slam to the ground.

Seeing this scene, someone from the Shi family immediately came up to help the beggar.

The beggar muttered to himself, "Hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry." ”

Seeing the appearance of the beggar, a woman walked out of the family, with a delicate face and a light and elegant dress, which was particularly eye-catching in a group of sloppy beggars.

"Quick, give him something to eat. The woman reached out and touched the beggar's forehead, and hurriedly commanded the family.

"Yes, miss. The family then complied with the instructions and brought a bowl of porridge and a plate of steamed buns.

When the food entered the stomach, the beggar slowly opened his eyes, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to the woman in thanks.

The woman shook her head, picked up the beggar, took out two steamed buns and stuffed them into the beggar's hand, and said with a smile: "Take this back and eat it slowly, and come back tomorrow." ”

The beggar took the steamed bun, thanked him repeatedly, and left happily.

Seeing this scene, Jing Fa smiled in his heart: "His grandfather's, so easy to deceive? Xiaofa is not powerful, you are a sick cat when you are an old man." ”

After saying it in his heart, he immediately prepared to repeat Yao Cai's old skills outside Yangzhou City, when he didn't have time to open his mouth, he heard a "ouch" scream, turned his head and saw that it was the stinky Taoist priest, who took the first step and fainted to the ground.
