According to Lao Hong, several other shops have also made such nails, and he estimates that the total number is in the thousands.

Thousands of iron nails may be used to climb the mountain, Gu Shenwei immediately thought of Jinpeng Castle above the peak, but this plan is really a bit unbelievable, the peak is surrounded by thousands of abysses, surrounded by large rivers, if you want to climb all the way to the peak, you have to have the ability to be like a god.

In contrast, the Dutch girl's sword-making act is less incomprehensible, "only in this way can you reasonably carry the sword with you." The Dutch woman explained her actions afterwards.

She was right, there were many young people in the stone castle, and it was inevitable that some people would fall in love with each other over time, and often make pairs of items to show themselves, and swords were the most common choice.

"Anyway, everyone thinks that the two of us are a couple, so why don't we take the sword with us, I think we may be using it soon. ”

There was no girlish shyness when she said this, she was born like a killer, and she didn't care about her status as a woman.

Gu Shenwei breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that this was really a good idea, the only thing to watch out for was the few teenagers in the castle who liked the Dutch girl, and they might be very unhappy because of this matter.

After a whole day, the two of them found no special clues, and continued to investigate, they could only enter the deep valley and walk around the bottom of the peak, which might take several months.

As soon as they returned to their residence, the two received news from Liuhua that they had been summoned to see Mr. Guo.

The hideaway where the apprentices lived during the assassination of the "Ten Dragons" last winter is now Mr. Guo's base camp, and the alley outside the gate is crowded with people, but the courtyard is empty, and only those who have received orders can enter.

The four brown belt killers were quickly summoned, and found that in addition to Mr. Guo and a group of killers in the hall, there were dozens of teenagers from the Xiaoqi Battalion, and the leader was Shangguan Yushi.

Mr. Guo's expression was not good, in his opinion, the decision of the fort was completely vexatious, but he did not dare to object, because this decision was under the banner of the king of Dubu.

"The small flag battalion is responsible for the southeast area of Nancheng, a total of ten streets and alleys, Shangguan Yushi is the killer, outsiders are not allowed to interfere, the killer will send someone to report the situation to me every morning, if there is an accident, come to report at any time. ”

"Yes, Lord Leader. Shangguan Yushi said lightly, she didn't even lower her head, she still remembered that when Moyu's palm was blocked in the room for "stealing", Mr. Guo treated her as a slave.

"Leader" is the same as "killing master", it is a temporary position in Jinpeng Castle, specializing in directing operations at all levels, and the position will be abolished when the operation is over.

Mr. Guo waved his hand impatiently, indicating that the people of the small flag camp could leave, and he always had a respectful smile on his face in the fort, but now he had changed his habits, and his expression was so serious that he could freeze the water into ice.

Shangguan Yushi was just about to beckon his people to leave, when Mr. Guo pointed to the two teenagers in the crowd, "You two, you went to the blacksmith village today to ask the east and the west, what is going on, and whose order did you take?"

Gu Shenwei understood that Du Qi's backer turned out to be Mr. Guo.

"I ......"

As soon as Gu Shenwei said a word, Shangguan Yushi hurriedly said, "On the order of the tenth prince, we also need to find out the news, right?"

Shangguan Yushi actually excused Huannu, Gu Shenwei was extremely surprised, he originally wanted to say that he was ordered to hunt down the enemy when he stayed in Nancheng, but he didn't expect Shangguan Yushi to give a more secure reason.

"Stand down. Mr. Guo ordered, he wanted to see what this group of teenagers could come up with.

Shangguan Yushi led the brown belt killers to a mansion in the southeast of Nancheng, and immediately assigned tasks to dismiss everyone, leaving only a few elites under her direct command, including Huan Nu, but she would not treat him as an elite.

"The tenth prince said that her people can die, but they can't be bullied. This was said to Huan Nu, so that he could understand that it was against his will to speak for him, "But I said, let's kill more enemies, win glory for the tenth prince, and don't embarrass her." Lotus girl, what are you asking about in the blacksmith village? ”

The lotus girl told her about the iron nails, Shangguan Yushi sneered, and turned her eyes to Huan Nu, "This is your conjecture? Xiaoyue Hall and the Great Wilderness Gate buy a lot of iron nails and prepare to climb Jinpeng Castle?"

"It's possible. Gu Shenwei said.

"There is no such possibility, first, you don't know who the person who bought the iron nails is, and second, why did Xiaoyuetang have to go to such great lengths to climb the stone castle? ”

Shangguan Yushi's statement was a bit exaggerated, but Gu Shenwei knew that there were indeed many masters guarding the stone castle, and those "green-faced" assassins who did not show their true faces alone were enough to eliminate several female killers who had climbed to the top.

"I can guess who the person who bought the iron nail is, it is a swordsman named Nie Qing, his sister is likely to be a disciple of Xiaoyue Hall or the Great Wilderness Sect, as for the purpose, it may not be to kill people, but to have other intentions. ”

"Where is that Nie Qing?"

"I killed you. ”

"Hey, this is really Huan Nu's usual style, stealing the limelight and making up stories, okay, from today onwards, you don't have to participate in any assassination operations, just concentrate on tracking down the iron nails, maybe you can make a big contribution." ”

In the face of Yu Gongzi's cynicism, Gu Shenwei pretended not to hear it, bowed down and said yes, and accepted this arduous "task".

"Let me track him down. The lotus girl said, except for Shangguan Ru, someone actually stood on the side of Huan Nu in front of Shangguan Yushi, which had never happened, and the few teenagers left, including Gu Shenwei himself, were taken aback.

This was the second time that the Dutch girl had surprised him today.

Shangguan Yushi was stunned for a moment, she knew that the relationship between the Lotus Girl and Huan Nu was not ordinary, but she had always believed that she had the ability to win the Lotus Girl over, so she was very dissatisfied with this public "betrayal", "No, you have to stay, I have a task to give to you." ”

In just a blink of an eye, Shangguan Yushi changed his mind again, instead of forcing the lotus girl to follow him at this time, it was better to wait for her to change her mind and beg, "Well, it's okay, you and Huan Nu are in a team, and report to me every day." ”

Shangguan Yushi was extremely sure that after this mission, Huan Nu would be removed from the circle of the Ten Princes.

When he got outside, Gu Shenwei asked the lotus girl the reason, and the lotus girl shrugged, "You forgot, I'm just like you, my murderous intent has weakened, my knife is not resolute enough, and it's too risky to participate in the assassination." ”

Gu Shenwei felt a sense of relief, he didn't dislike the lotus girl, but the impression of the two at the beginning of their acquaintance had been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, experienced a series of tribulations, and even practiced the "Book of the Dead" together, the person he trusted the most now was the lotus girl, and he could even entrust her with his life, but there was always a distance in his heart that could not be crossed.

Shangguan Yushi's reason for not allowing Huan Nu to participate in the assassination was revealed the next day, and a former "arm slave gang" brown belt killer revealed the news that in ten days it will be the birthday of the Shangguan family twins, and Shangguan Fei will obtain the identity of the "Nine Young Masters", although Shangguan Ru can't be a "young master" for the time being, but he will also choose his own killer.

The Brown Belt Killers of the Little Banner Camp have always performed well, even surpassing some ordinary killers, and the reason why they didn't give everyone the title of killer was to wait for the day when the twins became adults.

The 20 teenagers who killed the most people or made great achievements in this operation will be given the title of killer and assigned to the two siblings as core members.

The Brown Belt Killers had almost all made a blood oath to their respective young masters, but several young masters agreed to transfer the apprentices to their younger siblings until Fusa and the two had a complete team of killers, which was also a long-standing tradition in Jinpeng Castle.

Being excluded from the assassination operation means that you can't participate in the killing competition, and you lose the possibility of becoming a killer, this is Shangguan Yushi's calculation, which just took advantage of the little trouble caused by Huan Nu himself.

It was difficult for Gu Shenwei to be indifferent to this, he had always wanted to become a killer and contact the upper echelons of Jinpeng Castle in order to prepare for revenge, but he always encountered various obstacles, and when he planned to get rid of Shangguan Yu again, he had to give up in the end.

Shangguan Yushi and Huan Nu are in a delicate balance at this time, as long as Shangguan Ru is still there, the killing between the two will not be allowed, if Shangguan is not stupid, either side is dead, she will suspect the other.

The pursuit of the iron nail was originally just a whim of Gu Shen, but now it has important significance, if you can really find out the conspiracy of Xiaoyuetang, it will undoubtedly be a great achievement, and you will be eligible for the title of killer.

But where to start next, Gu Shenwei didn't have a clue at all.

The Dutch Maiden had other ideas, believing that the most pressing issue at the moment was to remove the effects of the fake "Book of the Dead", and that a killer who was not determined enough to kill would be tantamount to exposing his back to the enemy.

Because she was on the side of Huan Nu, the lotus girl also lost the opportunity to become a killer, Gu Shenwei was a little sorry for this, so he agreed to her plan, and the two of them went to Zuopo Jingshe to find the answer, which was the place where the Tiger Monk practiced before his death.

Gu Shen felt sorry for the death of the Tiger Monk for a moment, and now he finally understood how correct the decision of the Lotus Girl was at that time.

The Xiaoqi battalion commanded by Shangguan Yushi was captured the next day, killing two disciples of the Great Wilderness Sect and searching for the iconic steel thorns from them.

In the evening of the same day, Huan Nu said in his routine report that he had found nothing that day, and after some ridicule, he and the Lotus Nu set off on horseback overnight to the Four Noble Heavens outside the city, and the two turned back many times along the way to reconnoiter to make sure that no one was following behind them.

The two hid their horses at the bottom of the mountain, walked the trail up the mountain, and arrived at the Zuopo Ashram near Garan in the middle of the night.

At this time, the autumn mood has been strong, the trees are killed, the insects are hidden, and a lonely lamp is lit in a grass room in the left slope of the house, which is particularly eye-catching.

The two teenagers were very surprised, the retreat usually only lives in the Tiger Monk Master, and the meals are all brought by the little novice on time, and now that the Master is dead, who is occupying this place so quickly?

The lotus girl took cover in the back, Gu Shenwei drew a knife and quietly jumped to the door of the grass hut, the wooden door was hidden, through the crack in the door, you could see a monk sitting inside, her skin was so white and transparent, she suddenly smiled at the door, exactly the same as the tiger monk.
