Chapter 770: Mission
Gu Shenwei recounted the experience of five swordsmen borrowing horses, and observed the reactions of six people.
It is impossible for Han Wuxian to be loyal to anyone, her purpose is to snatch back Han Xuan's cultivation of secret arts, and then kill the traitor of Guangxiao Yuetang, the Dragon King knows her secret, so as long as there is an opportunity and benefits, she will definitely choose to betray.
At this moment, she was the most calm of all, and consciously excluded herself from the suspect, combing her long hair intently, with a smile on her face, as if she were thinking of a proud and beautiful thing.
In contrast, Tu Gou was more panicked than everyone else, he was a native of the Central Plains, and the reason for following the Dragon King was the most far-fetched - to break through the rivers and lakes, and the time was the shortest, but because of this, his panic was justified, and this was the first time in his life that he was suspected in person.
Tie Linglong was very vigilant, but the object was not the Dragon King, but the other five people, especially Nie Zeng, she regarded herself as the Dragon King's guard, and there was no doubt about it, but she had been trained by Xiaoyue Hall, and she was no longer the innocent and innocent little girl she used to be.
Nie Zeng lowered his head, and the stubborn expression on his face was clearly saying: If you want to doubt it, you can doubt it, it doesn't matter. The thought of revenge in his heart has not disappeared, and after more than two years of hard study, the gap between the sword technique and the dragon king has barely narrowed, which may make him feel tired and would rather accept a simple and easy plan.
Shangguan Fei's face was blue and red, but he tried his best to open his eyes and look back at the Dragon King's gaze, hoping that his similar appearance to his sister would ease the Dragon King's suspicions.
Old Man Mu wrinkled his eyebrows and fell into deep thought, as if the Dragon King was not questioning, but seeking his insight, so he was the first to respond, "The Dragon King is thinking too much, how do I think this is a coincidence? If someone really betrayed the Dragon King, why would he arrange such a clumsy assassination? Maybe these five people originally had a contradiction, and after being defeated by the Dragon King, they complained to each other, bang, one of them got angry, killed the others, and ran away by himself, it's as simple as that." ”
Tu Gou looked confused, and the old man Mu shouted: "What are you doing, am I not right?"
"It's not. Tu Gou's face turned red, his martial arts are now stronger than Old Man Mu, and his experience in the rivers and lakes is much worse, and he is still a little timid, especially when he finds that others are looking at him, he snorted: "I just want to ask why I 'bang' when I am angry." ”
"Childish. The old man said impatiently, "If there must be an internal annihilation, it must be this old dog, he pretended to take refuge in the Dragon King, but in fact, he has been secretly communicating with the Kongtong faction, didn't the Dragon King say that the five swordsmen were from the Central Plains?"
The old man Mu said as he slaughtered the dog and waved his hand, "No, isn't it...... I'm not the kind of person who snitches behind my back, and besides, there are many masters in the Kongtong faction, and I won't send five ordinary swordsmen to assassinate the Dragon King, I think...... I think ......" Slaughter Dog swept across the faces of several people, not knowing who to point the suspicion at.
"Maybe Old Man Mu is right, but I'm thinking too much. Gu Shen saved the helpless slaughtering dog with a word, "I've been in Biyu City for a few days, and I haven't met an assassin again." ”
Shangguan Fei let out a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said: "Dragon King, you can scare me to death, I also think it's a coincidence, no matter which party knows the news of the Dragon King's solo trip, they won't just send five stupid swordsmen to assassinate you, coincidence, this can only be a coincidence, but be careful to sail the Ten Thousand Year Boat, it's normal for the Dragon King to be suspicious......"
Shangguan Fei patted his ass for a while, and Han Wuxian interrupted him, "Dragon King, what are you sending us all to Biyu City for?
Shangguan Fei suddenly retracted half a section, even if he publicly offended the Dragon King, he refused to participate in the assassination of his father, not because of the love of father and son, but because he was too afraid.
"The time is not yet ripe to assassinate the Dubu King. Gu Shenwei was not arrogant to this extent, he had been waiting for many years, and he would not suddenly become impatient, "I got the news that a large number of martial arts people from the Central Plains have entered the Western Regions and gathered in Biyu City, I want to know their purpose, slaughtering the dog and the old man wood, this task is entrusted to the two of you." ”
"Is it that simple? I thought there would be a competition. Tu Gou was slightly disappointed, "To be honest, Dragon King, I'm not familiar with the Central Plains martial arts, unless they are all famous people from more than ten years ago." ”
Old Man Mu's performance was much more mature than that of Tu Gou, "Don't worry, Dragon King, I promise to find out clearly, although it is a burden, it will not affect me much." ”
Gu Shenwei snorted and turned to Shangguan Fei, "Jinpeng Fort has been quiet for a long time, something is not quite right, you are in charge of investigating." ”
Shangguan Fei's newly erected body shrank back again, "Dragon King, everyone in Jinpeng Castle knows me, and I have done so many things for you, I have to ...... as soon as I show up."
"I believe you have your own way, Tie Linglong, you help him. ”
Tie Linglong glanced at Shangguan Fei in disgust, and reluctantly responded, Shangguan Fei didn't notice her gaze, and still looked at the Dragon King blankly, "I...... This one...... What the Dragon King wants to know, can you be specific. ”
"Well, I want to know most about where the green noodles of Jinpeng Castle have gone, and why they haven't shown up. ”
Shangguan Fei weighed it slightly, and felt that this task was not too dangerous, so he was as impassioned as Old Man Mu, "I can do this, as soon as the Dragon King said it, I also felt strange, when I was in the Easy Sea, there were so many killers making trouble, and I didn't see a few green faces, it stands to reason that the Dragon King should be qualified...... Hehe, Jinpeng Castle probably can't afford to lose. ”
Gu Shenwei turned to Han Wuxian again, and only said one sentence, "The lotus girl is in Biyu City." ”
Han Wuxian put down his long hair, squinted his eyes and took a deep breath, "The entire Biyu City is the smell of a traitor, and the Dragon King's news is very accurate. ”
Gu Shenwei has nothing to say, "That's it, we will meet every three days in the future, if there is something temporary, tell Lu Qiying, I will find your whereabouts, and don't startle the snake, I just want to find out the facts, not to kill people." ”
For this last request, Shangguan Fei immediately agreed, Tie Linglong, Tu Gou, and Old Man Mu were more reluctant than the other, Han Wuxian waited for a while before suddenly said: "Is the Dragon King waiting for my answer? Okay, I'll try not to kill anyone." ”
"Not as much as possible. Gu Shenwei didn't want to leave a loophole on this issue.
Han Wuxian didn't seem to hear the Dragon King's words again, he lowered his head and smiled, and it took a long time to spit out a word, "Okay." ”
Everyone dispersed, but Tie Linglong and Nie Zeng stayed, glanced at each other, and waited for the other party to leave first, and finally Nie Zeng spoke: "The Dragon King hasn't given me a task yet." ”
"Your job is to follow me. ”
"Yes. Nie Zeng retreated.
Tie Linglong immediately said, "Dragon King, why don't you let me be your bodyguard and let Nie Zeng go to cooperate with Shangguan Fei." ”
"I need someone to help me keep an eye on Shangguan Fei. ”
Tie Linglong immediately smiled, it turned out that the Dragon King believed in himself more, and replied heavily: "Well, Shangguan Feixiu wants to play tricks. ”
Tie Linglong was just about to leave, but Gu Shenwei stopped her, "Wait, are you still holding a grudge against Xiao Chu?"
"Who cares about him?" said Tie Linglong angrily.
Gu Shenwei stared at the little girl's green eyes, after she escaped from Xiaoyue Hall, the two had not had a deep conversation.
"Don't deceive yourself whether you care or not, conquer emotions as well as enemies, first you have to admit that they exist. ”
Tie Linglong raised her head, as if she wanted to prove that she really didn't care, but as soon as the words reached her mouth, tears flowed out first, and the more she flowed, the more she couldn't stop, and her voice also choked up, "He, he said it well, it sounded good, but in fact, it was all a lie, and I haven't ...... it yet." The sword in his hand is important, what's wrong with me, me?"
Gu Shenwei looked at her crying, and his tone was unusually calm, "You should give him a chance." ”
"Give him a chance? Why?" Tie Linglong finally stopped sobbing, tears still sliding down her face like pearls, and she was very unconvinced.
"Chu Nanping is more sincere than everyone else, he is confused, admits that it faces it squarely, and will eventually overcome it. ”
Tie Linglong wiped away her tears, "What if he chooses swordsmanship in the end?"
Gu Shenwei couldn't answer, Chu Nanping couldn't have both after all, that was not only the strength of the ruthless swordsmanship, but also the limitation of his surname, the young swordsman's heart could not tolerate two equally important things, and he would only love one of them wholeheartedly.
Tie Linglong sighed, "Dragon King, will I never be a real killer?"
The little girl had to admit many obvious facts, her sword skills were gradually caught up by Nie Zeng, Xiaoyue Tang couldn't learn the secret arts, and her emotions were even more fluctuating, each of which was far from the killer standard.
"I never wanted you to be a killer. ”
"Because I'm not acting well?" Tie Linglong was deeply surprised, she had been trained as a killer by the Dragon King, and even going to Xiaoyue Hall was deliberately arranged by the Dragon King, so she always thought that the Dragon King had high hopes for her.
"You did a great job, far exceeding my expectations. Gu Shenwei spoke seriously to people for the first time, and suddenly felt a lot older, "Neither I nor Xiaoyuetang have been able to turn you into a killer, which shows that you are strong, don't think about being a killer anymore, your martial arts will improve faster." ”
"But ......" Tie Linglong was puzzled, but she couldn't sort out the real feeling.
"The killer is not the strongest martial artist, nor is it the only means of killing, you should go the other way. ”
Tie Linglong's green eyes flashed, "But I want to follow the same path as the Dragon King." ”
Gu Shenwei's path is destined to be walked alone, "Your road will not be too far away from me, in a few days, I will teach you other martial arts." ”
"Isn't it amazing?"
"It's amazing, I grew up in elementary school, but unfortunately I didn't work too hard when I was a kid and didn't succeed. ”
Tie Linglong hesitated for a moment, "Will it be better than Chu Nanping?"
"It's not that I'm boasting, after these sets of martial arts are practiced, they will be better than most people. ”
Tie Linglong smiled, "If I can beat Xiao Chu, I will give him a chance, and before that, I will never forgive him." ”
Watching Tie Linglong walk out of the room, Gu Shenwei secretly said to a figure in the dark: Master, this is what I owe you.
Then his heart gradually cooled to a normal state, "Nie Zeng." He raised his voice and shouted, "If Lu Qiying comes back, let him come to see me." ”
Gu Shenwei left a task for himself, and at the same time, he did not relax his speculation about internal annihilation.
