Chapter 153: The Swordsman

Gu Shenwei involuntarily held the hilt of the sword, there were two kinds of weapons pinned to his belt, a knife and a sword, the knife was used to hide people's ears and eyes, the sword was the most competent killing blade, and a strong enemy suddenly appeared, he forgot that he was a Jinpeng Fort killer, and he should be better at using a knife.

Most of the swordsmanship in the world is fancy, good looking and not easy to use, so in the cruel and real rivers and lakes, swordsmen have never been the mainstream, but swordsmen are not in the hands of Yong, there are always so many people, who use swords like gods, and live above everyone in the martial arts, Ye Shilang is one of them.

Ye Shilang doesn't like to talk, he has already dedicated his life to the sword in his hand, so he is called the "sacrificial sword".

He is like those who are obsessed with a certain craft, immersed in his own world, willing to spend only a little energy to deal with the noise outside, except for the sword and the enemy, no one and nothing can occupy a place in his eyes.

His murderous aura is different, Gu Shenwei can appreciate the nuances, this is a person who is tired of other people's lives, he will kill indifferently, neither fear nor excitement, just killing.

Gu Shenwei held the hilt of the sword tightly, I don't know if it was because there were too many people around him, he was disturbed, and he couldn't feel the other party's "life qi", which was the offensive core of the swordsmanship of the "Book of the Dead".

Ye Shilang was not as calm as he seemed on the surface, he also held the hilt of the sword, standing in the crowd and looking at this young killer, it seemed that he was no different from an ordinary swordsman, weak and stupid, but when the young man was about to attack with a sword, he changed into a person in an instant.

Where is his murderous aura? Ye Shilang didn't understand, when the young man was entangled with Meng Wugongzi, he would occasionally show murderous aura, but at this time, there was no murderous aura at all, only the breathing was continuous and peaceful, the internal breath was full of meridians all over the body, and the sword and body had been integrated, obviously it was a posture of killing with one blow, but there was no murderous aura.

Before the two of them drew their swords, they were already jealous, and regarded this accidental competition as the first tough battle in their lives.

The confrontation between them was not long, Meng Mingshi had just been pulled aside by Gao Houye, away from the danger, and the crowd of onlookers had just grabbed a good position, ready to watch a murderous show.

Whether he should kill or not, whether the swordsmanship will be exposed, is it not important to Gu Shenwei, all his will is used on the young swordsman.

The one who spoiled the situation was still Tuo Nengya, this night, as if he deliberately didn't want Meng Wugongzi to have fun, he stood up again, walked between the two swordsmen, and shook his head, "I haven't said yes yet, what are you two going to do?"

This time, it was the Marquis Gao who couldn't hang his face, and he brushed the ground and put away the paper fan, "Boss Tuo, you are also an old man, do you really not understand the rules?"

Tuo Nengya sighed, and more than twenty swordsmen stepped forward in formation, blocking the young killer.

"Boss Tuo is old, I just want to find a safe and stable master, Meng Wugongzi, Gao Hou Ye, it's not that I don't love money, it's just that the Qiu Society has just been established, and I am ambitious, why do we need this group of half-cut swordsmen? Thank you for the love of the two masters, and please let the old men go. ”

Most of the swordsmen in their forties are in their forties, and they are not too old to say they are young, but they are not too old, and they blindly depreciate themselves, just wanting to calmly solve the crisis in front of them.

Meng Mingshi and Gao Hou Ye brought many swordsmen, and there was also a swordsmanship master Ye Shilang, so he was naturally not afraid of Tuo Nengya, but he was originally here for Huan Nu and didn't want to fight a scuffle.

The two were hesitating, Ye Shilang suddenly let go of the hilt of the sword, walked to Gao Houye's side, and said a few words in his ear, Gao Houye's face twitched, and then he smiled, "Hey, the world has really changed, piles of silver, and we can't even invite a group of old men. ”

A turmoil disappeared invisibly, Gu Shenwei and Tuo Nengya were deeply surprised, Meng Mingshi and the people he brought were also confused, but since Gao Hou Ye had already spoken, everyone did not dare to object, so they had to withdraw from the rouge forest in a boring manner, and Meng Wugongzi chased after Gao Hou Ye and Ye Shilang, and whispered angrily to ask the reason.

Until only the old swordsman and the young killer were left in the forest, Tuo Nengya turned to face the new master, bowed and saluted, and the twenty or so swordsmen did so.

Gu Shenwei accepted calmly, led the swordsmen back to Nancheng, and entered the mansion he had rented for the tenth prince before dawn.

Liu crooked his mouth and got up very early, and when he saw Tuo Nengya and his group, he was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled the young boss aside, asking what was going on, these people were all the original swordsmen of the eldest young master, how could they work for the tenth prince?

Gu Shenwei insisted on his own opinion, and ordered Liu to call the account room and documents with his crooked mouth, make a contract and press his fingerprint, and complete all the formalities.

Twenty-three swordsmen were hired, and in Jinpeng Castle, they were called swordsmen, but the killer Yang Huan was only their leader, and the real master was the tenth prince, who had not yet descended the mountain.

After the matter was done, Gu Shenwei called all the servants in the house in order to make Liu crooked.

"Take him down. After the people gathered, Gu Shenwei issued an order.

The swordsmen who had just signed the contract were in a hurry to perform, and immediately walked out of the two of them, and pressed the blue face of Liu to his knees on the ground.

Liu crooked his mouth in disbelief, "You, what are you doing?" Huan slave, Yang Huan, it's not you who is in charge here. ”

"If the tenth prince is not here, I am the master. Gu Shenwei said coldly.

"Then you can't come nonsense, why arrest me?"

"Because you secretly collaborated with the enemy, passed on the news, and betrayed the Ten Princes. ”

"I didn't, you don't want to spew blood. Liu's crooked mouth is still stiff.

Gu Shenwei motioned to the swordsman to let go of Liu's crooked mouth and softened his tone, "I know, in your opinion, the Meng family and Shibao are in the same qi, how can they be enemies? ”

Liu's face was flushed, "It's not me, you are walking around in the forest, many people have seen it, why do you say it's me." ”

Gu Shenwei looked at the housekeeper and didn't speak, Liu crooked his mouth and suddenly realized that he had said that he had gone away, the other party didn't mention Rouge Lin, but he said "in the forest", his face turned white again, and he lowered his head and said: "Maybe I said it casually, and it was passed to the Meng family, anyway, I didn't see the fifth son, and I didn't betray you." ”

As soon as the three words "Fifth Prince" came out, it proved everything, and Gu Shenwei pulled out a narrow knife, "How can you be a butler for a killer with many mouths and tongues?"

Liu's crooked face turned green again, but he still didn't believe that Huan Nu dared to kill him, he was the designated housekeeper in the stone castle, but he was not hired by this slave from the street to do chores, "Only the tenth prince can dispose of me." ”

Gu Shenwei pushed the handle of the knife and stabbed the narrow knife into Liu's crooked chest, "This is the disposal of the tenth prince." Then he kept staring at Liu Crooked Mouth until he stopped spitting blood foam in his mouth, pulled out the knife, wiped it clean and withdrew it into the sheath, and said to a dozen servants: "Throw it out of the city." ”

The servants hurried up and carried away the corpse, and knew one thing from then on, that those who work in this house must be strict in their mouths, preferably as if they were dumb.

Gu Shenwei called Tuo Nengya to a room alone and asked him about the origin of Gao Hou Ye and Ye Shilang.

Gao Houye's real name is Gao Zhen, and he is really a fake marquis, but he has been living in Biyu City from his homeland for many years, bringing countless gold and silver treasures, and he can't spend them in a few decades, and he has a wide range of contacts, and he is one of the famous nobles in Beicheng.

Ye Shilang's origin is more complicated, he seems to be from the royal family, but it has never been confirmed, in the early years, he had worshiped many famous teachers, and even entered Jinpeng Fort to learn swordsmanship, but in the end he didn't know where to change the swordsmanship, that was seven years ago, when he returned to Biyu City three years ago, he suddenly became a top master, and countless swordsmen who came to challenge were defeated under his sword.

"In the ring, no one can beat him. Tuo Nengya said, glancing at the sword under the leader's waist, Ye Shilang actually retreated because of this sword, this is a strange thing that he has never heard of, and the young man also lied that he didn't know swordsmanship.

Gu Shenwei didn't plan to explain this matter, in fact, he needed the other party's explanation more.

"You want to avenge the young master. Gu Shenwei suddenly changed the topic, and to the point, he knew best that there was only one kind of person who would give up one thousand taels and choose five hundred taels a month: the one who was desperate for revenge.

"If the killer doesn't avenge his master, why should the swordsman meddle?"

"Killers don't talk about human feelings, but some swordsmen always want to repay kindness and revenge. ”

Tuo Nengya once said that he served the eldest young lord Shangguan Chui because he owed a favor, and he thought for a while, "More than ten years ago, not long after I arrived in Biyu City, a killer in Shibao raped my wife and killed her. I searched for a year and took revenge by killing him. This killer belongs to the big young master, the big young master didn't kill me, and asked me to take the killer's place, I refused, and the big young master didn't get angry. And so, after another ten years, the young master said that he needed a knife hand, and I took the brothers to hire. Therefore, I owe the young master a favor, and I hate him to the bone, because of him, I can't take revenge on the stone castle anymore. ”

The young man looked at the old swordsman, they had the same hatred hidden in their hearts, but they were two kinds of people, embarking on completely different paths of revenge, the young man had no gratitude, and would not stop killing because of anyone.

"Anyway, without me present, you and your brother are not allowed to approach the tenth prince alone, I have always acted in advance, and I will not wait for revenge afterwards. ”

"Hey. Tonengya laughed, "Looks like you're a tough boss to deal with. ”

In the afternoon of the same day, Gu Shenwei and Tuo Nengya returned to the Rouge Forest and hired another twenty-eight swordsmen at a price of two hundred taels per month, enough to make up fifty-one people, enough to form the "invincible sword array" that Tuo Nengya said.

Gu Shenwei deliberately selected people who were not familiar with Tuo Boss to prevent the old swordsman from standing on his own, Tuo Nengya saw it in his eyes and did not object once.

Early the next morning, Gu Shenwei returned to the stone castle and asked the tenth prince to go down the mountain.

This little killer organized to make money as soon as possible, and the 20,000 taels of silver were barely enough to pay the first month's expenses, and Gu Shenwei didn't want to use the money left by the master so early.
