There is a garden on the outskirts of Nancheng, and the earliest owner is surnamed Gui, so it is called Guiyuan.

Your garden covers an area of hundreds of acres, planted with peach trees, at this time the cold winter has not passed, the snow is thick, and there is still a period of time to leave the flowers.

In the depths of the peach forest, a small tomb was newly erected, and the swordsman in the purple cloak had been guarding it for three days and three nights, and the people in the tomb had also guarded his side day and night.

Gu Shenwei inquired about this peach orchard, came here early in the morning, and saw the target from a long distance.

The pain caused by death can only end with death, Gu Shenwei thought to himself, he had regretted the death of Chu Yang Jun for a moment, but now he had left it behind.

"If I had two hearts, I would remember him with one heart and think about how to kill you with the other, but I only have one, and I can't waste it on you. Ye Shilang leaned against the tree and said to the grave, not looking at the killer behind him.

Amorous and stupid swordsman, it may be easier to kill him than expected, Gu Shenwei stood twenty steps away from the swordsman, his right hand no longer holding the hilt of the sword tightly, "That's great, if you have two hearts, I don't know how to kill you." ”

Ye Shilang still didn't look back, as if he hadn't heard the killer's sarcasm at all, and continued to talk to himself, maybe he had been talking to himself all along, the killer just happened to be standing nearby, "Let's learn swords together, I am a master with art, he has never learned martial arts, and he has suffered a lot in my hands." This peach forest is his favorite place, and every time he loses, he will sneak here to cry. Later, his swordsmanship got better and better, and even I was sometimes no match for him. But every time the peach blossoms are in full bloom, we must come here to play, to be with a lot of people during the day, and to come back secretly at night, even if we can't see anything, we have to smell the flowers. ”

Now is a good time to make a move, Gu Shenwei clenched the hilt of the sword again, and the lotus girl who was hiding in white and hiding in another tree probably thought the same thing, but he couldn't draw his sword, something was stopping him, so that he couldn't concentrate on the sword.

Gao Zhen was a shameless person, and he actually had bad thoughts about him, which annoyed the boy in the rice shop, and the two always quarreled over this matter. Hey, if no one does it, I'll kill Gao Zhen too. ”

"But you are using the money of the Marquis Gao, and you are a little reluctant to kill him. Gu Shenwei deliberately provoked the swordsman, hoping that the other party would make the first move.

"That's right, money, it's all because of money, you can see all kinds of wonderful realms when you learn swords, but you don't have money. Gao Zhen was killed, but he did me a great favor, someone gave 100,000 taels of silver, hoping to put the crime on you and let me kill you, I agreed. With this money, we can leave Biyu City, buy a piece of land, plant only peach trees, and never participate in the disputes of the rivers and lakes again. ”

There was no resentment in Ye Shilang's tone, and his mind was still on the person in the tomb.

"You are the most expensive killer I have ever seen, Meng Wugongzi really thinks highly of me. ”

"I'm not a killer, neither is he, we're swordsmen, we can kill for money, but never behind the scenes. Ye Shilang's voice suddenly became stern, and his body also stood up straight.

"I'm not a swordsman, I'm a killer, I kill for any reason, and I don't stand in front of a master and wait for him to strike. ”

Gu Shenwei was ready, he had felt a murderous aura full of boredom in Ye Shilang's body, but now this murderous aura had become fierce and enthusiastic, like a volcano that was pressing down, and it would erupt at any time.

"But why did you kill him? He is no threat to you. ”

Ye Shilang turned around, Gu Shenwei was slightly taken aback, this man completely changed his appearance, his face was haggard, he lost his god-like brilliance, only his eyes were red, and he shot a fierce gaze, even the most ferocious beast would retreat when he saw it.

Gu Shenwei is not a beast, he is a killer, he practices the "Book of the Dead" with the purpose of killing, and walks the method of "self-death".

"Because of you. With him, I can't kill you, but you can kill me. You shouldn't have let him stand in my way. If you let a person intervene in the battle of life and death, you should not be surprised by his death, life and death are equal, it is not you or me. ”

Gu Shen felt that the time he was waiting for was coming, the swordsman would use all his strength to stab a sword, and he would fight back mercilessly, but the real killer was the lotus girl in the tree.

The three swords will be incredibly fast, shorter than the moment the peach blossom breaks away from the branch, the battle will be over, there will be life, some people will die, the difference is only who can be so fast that it is almost imperceptible.

But he was wrong again, Ye Shilang didn't take out the sword, and his hand didn't even reach out to the hilt of the sword, "I said that I would give you back your life, and today is the time to return your life, I will let you live, and we will meet again soon." ”

Gu Shenwei did not respond to this "kindness", his hand was still on the hilt of the sword, and his internal breath spread all over his body, he felt that his murderous intent had risen, and he had to see blood to satisfy the greedy monster.

Ye Shilang was alert, his fingers moved slightly, and he still didn't touch the sword, but took a step back, "It turns out that you have been prepared, I need to find another chance to give you back your life." Shoot, you and the people in the tree have a chance to kill me, and this chance will not be tomorrow. ”

Gu Shenwei is fully sure that he will be able to kill Ye Shilang on the other side, although he may still be injured, but the two killers who have learned the swordsmanship of the "Book of the Dead" must not lose to the proud swordsman.

He just couldn't draw his sword, and the kind of thing that couldn't catch the unknown was still playing a weak stopping role, and he suddenly understood that he was hesitating, and Chu Yang Jun's face before his death secretly appeared to interfere with the killer's thoughts.

It's really strange, he didn't even see Chu Yangjun's expression at that time, he only heard a last word, a last word that didn't need to be relayed.

It wasn't the best time to kill, it was a fatal mistake, and the slightest distraction was enough to slow down his sword a little, and the end result was the difference between life and death, he wanted to kill the swordsman, but he didn't want to die with the other party.

"Tomorrow. ”

Gu Shenwei also took a step back.

"Tomorrow. ”

Ye Shilang stood still, his "debt" was paid off, these two words had already given the killer a chance to escape, if he refused to dodge, he would complain about the sword in his hand.

Gu Shenwei and the lotus girl withdrew from the peach forest, no one spoke along the way, and when they returned to their residence, Gu Shenwei explained, "It's me who has a problem, and it's a little close." ”

The lotus girl nodded, there was no doubt or comfort, it was Huan Nu's inner demon, he had to kill it himself, she just had to wait.

Gu Shenwei rushed to Beicheng around noon and admitted to the tenth prince that he couldn't get Ye Shilang's head back that night, "I'm going to do it tomorrow." ”

"Tomorrow, tomorrow you're going to negotiate with the Society. ”

The negotiations between the two societies were divided into two sessions, and Gu Shenwei's task was to reach a short-term truce and determine the time and place of the next negotiation, and the final peace treaty was decided by the two sons of the Shangguan family and the Meng family.

"Tomorrow's negotiation will be a life-and-death battle between me and Ye Shilang. ”

Shangguan Ru suddenly realized, "It turns out that the little bastard still wants to make ghosts, and Ye Shilang wants to do it on the road." ”

Ye Shilang revealed a little conspiracy to the killer to repay the other party's "life-saving grace", Meng Mingshi's strategy was also very clever, Ye Shilang always claimed that he was not a member of the Qiu Society, so he killed Yang Huan before and after the negotiation without breaking any rules.

"So tomorrow I'll get his head back. ”

"Are you sure?" Shangguan Ru had to be suspicious, Huan Nu retreated in front of Ye Shilang several times, which had affected her confidence.

"Yes. ”

Shangguan Ru's dark eyes were thoughtful, and then smiled, "I believe you, but you don't want to deal with Ye Shilang alone, how many people do you need, just open your mouth, it doesn't matter if you take all the knife hands away, the killer can also be, after tonight, you will know if the wild horse is a traitor." ”

Kunshe's counterattack is set for the night of the day, and if it succeeds, it will become an important bargaining chip on the negotiation table tomorrow, which is similar to the strategy of the Meng family's "little bastard", but the goal is different.

"It may take some people, but I want to know first who made this negotiation happen. ”

"Captain Zhong Heng, do you suspect that he is also involved in the conspiracy?"

"I don't know, I'll have to look into it. ”

Zhong Heng, Gu Shenwei was not sure whether this adult was his friend or enemy, he once gave the young killer very pertinent advice, and also used the young man to transfer the hot potato three times and twice, Gu Shenwei bribed him and kidnapped him, which complicated the relationship between the two.

Zhong Heng's elegant face looked very simple, Lord Du Wei received the young killer warmly as always, and greeted him for a while before getting to the point, "It's time to end, every young master of Shibao grows up, and he has to show his head in Nancheng, just count this time as the biggest movement, hehe, the tenth prince is really better than the blue." I hope that tomorrow's negotiations will go well, and let the two heads of society talk about other things, let's put away the knife first. Speaking of which, Shibao and Meng are actually a family......"

Gu Shenwei patiently listened to Zhong Duwei's official tone, trying to find clues from it, facing the old fox of officialdom, the young man's efforts failed, he could only take advantage of the other party's silence to get straight to the point, and make a surprise attack, he had used this trick many times successfully.

"How much is the Meng family willing to pay adults?"

"What?" Zhong Heng's stunned look like it was real, "You...... This one...... What do you mean? Hall Master Yang suspects that I was bought?"

Zhong Heng was indignant.

"Your Excellency, forgive your sins, and be rude in the next moment. Gu Shenwei immediately apologized.

"Innocent, innocent, it's always good to be cautious. Zhong Heng's attitude also became very fast, and he returned to his approachable expression.

"Your lord's amount of money will be doubled from next month, from two thousand taels to four thousand taels. ”

This was a private conversation, only the officer and the killer, Zhong Heng had only taken the case silver once in total, and doubled it, which made him a little overwhelmed, "Hall Master Yang, this is not good, it is useless and ......"

"As I said, I will always ask the adults for advice again, and every time they give me advice, I will benefit me a lot. ”

Zhong Heng smiled knowingly, leaning on the back of the chair, holding a few beards, with an indifferent expression on his face that he was about to evict the guest downward, and then spoke, his eyes looked upward, as if he was talking to a guest who couldn't be seen, "I don't know anything, I know that people who plant flowers will steal flowers, people who grow rice will steal rice, and people who protect safety are often unsafe people." ”

Gu Shenwei said goodbye, went back to see the tenth prince, and asked her a question when only the two of them were talking, "Whose territory is tomorrow's negotiation on?"

"Ninth Prince, you don't have to worry, he dares to be bad, I can't spare him. ”

Gu Shenwei showed a relieved expression on his face, but he understood everything in his heart, and his life would be in Shangguan Fei's hands tomorrow.
