Chapter 44 God will not destroy me
Chapter 44 God will not destroy me
Under the drizzle, the Nanlong River, which used to be quite lively late at night, was much sluggish today. Many flower boats and green boats were docked along the bank..
A lonely and deserted shoal.
“Plop! "Plop!" "Plop!" "With three sounds, Wu Yuan watched the three corpses tied to the boulders slowly sinking to the bottom of the river.！
Until there is no more waves.
Since waking up, Wu Yuan has been very calm about killing after experiencing so much..
What's more, this is the assassin who came to kill him..
“Here, it is two miles away from the river beach where I usually practice martial arts. It is located at the bottom of the river beach in the city and five miles away from the Wu family streets." Wu Yuan said silently: "The river is rolling, even if these three corpses finally float, they will not be able to survive. It will take many days, and it will also be further downstream. What is the probability of finding me? close to zero！”
clue? Three corpses have been stripped naked by Wu Yuan！
trace? When he came over, Wu Yuan passed through the grass without leaving any trace..
In this Middle-earth world, there is no surveillance or various technological aids..
“Jiulong Mountain should be a dark organization, with three third-rate masters, one of whom is close to the second-rate in strength." Wu Yuan's eyes fell on the night clothes on the ground, as well as the daggers and sleeve arrow carriers coated with poison..
No other clutter.
Recalling the opponent's fighting actions and route just now, Wu Yuan was certain that this was a strictly trained assassin.！
It's not that the three assassins are not strong enough, but that Wu Yuan's strength is too terrifying, and he happens to be meditating on the roof and has insight in advance..
otherwise.
If an ordinary second-rate master encounters a surprise attack by three people, he will most likely be killed.！
“Ask an ordinary third-rate master to protect you, and a thousand taels of silver will suffice." Wu Yuan secretly said, "Can I hire an assassin like this? three people？”
I'm afraid ten thousand taels of silver won't be enough！
“Xu Shouyi, is that you? "Wu Yuan's eyes were cold. The only thing he could think of was this person..
Theoretically.
Some enemies of Hengyun Sect may also take action against themselves.
However, the news that he was specially recruited by the sect was only tentatively decided the day before yesterday. It has not yet been fully confirmed and has not been fully disclosed to the Wu family..
Which force reacts so quickly? I received the news immediately and immediately decided to take action？
The probability is too small！
After all, Licheng is just a county town, not a prefectural city! Message delivery takes time.
“Originally, I had some scruples, but you pushed me again and again, so don't blame me." Wu Yuan's eyes were cold..
Wu Yuan had many thoughts in his mind.
“Tonight, if the assassination fails once, it should stop for a while." Wu Yuan's eyes fell on the ground: "Pack these things away first..”
Put away clothes, daggers and other items one by one.
After cleaning up the traces of the tidal flat and confirming that nothing was left behind, Wu Yuan took this bag of things and left quietly..
Wu Yuan did not bury these clothes and daggers on the river beach.
Once the body surfaced, experienced detectives and Tisi would conduct a search and search along the river..
……
Leaving the city drizzle hazy.
But in the 'Nanmeng City' more than a thousand miles away, there is a bright moon hanging high, and the moonlight covers the earth..
As the core of Nanmeng Mansion, Nanmeng City has a population of one million. It is one of the core towns in the territory of Hengyun Sect and is considered a 'big city' in the world.’.
Stretching for tens of miles from north to south, it is a prosperous scene.
To the east of Nanmeng City, there is a high mountain with many pavilions, palaces and martial arts arenas. Standing on the mountain, you can easily overlook the entire Nanmeng Mansion..
In one of the palaces, even late at night, the lights are still brightly lit.
“Gao Yu.”
“Is what you said true? "An old man in black robes with white hair sat on the chair of the Grand Master and said softly. He had white hair and a childlike face, and was full of energy.！
At first glance, he is only about sixty years old.
But Gao Yu, who was standing in the middle hall, knew very well that the old man in front of him was already a hundred years old, but his martial arts skills extended his life..
“Hall Master, everything my disciple said is true." Gao Yu solemnly said, "The talent of Wu Yuan is so high that it is rarely seen in the world! Even Xu Hui can't match him.”
“Xu Hui? "The white-haired old man muttered.
That is the person with the highest talent that Hengyun Sect has recruited in more than ten years..
“Gao Yu.”
“Logically speaking, I should have gone there in person, but if I went to Licheng specifically to inspect the three prefectures this time, it would only attract the attention of interested people." The white-haired old man said: "On the contrary, accidents may easily happen..”
“In addition, the meeting of the four families is about to take place, so I want to return to the sect immediately..”
“You, then took my order and went to Licheng to recruit Wu Yuan into our Hengyun Sect." The white-haired old man said: "What you promised Wu Yuan, I will give orders after I return to the sect..”
“Yes." Gao Yu was determined..
What he was most worried about was that the palace master did not believe what he said and therefore rejected some proposals..
“Since you need special recruitment, what is the meeting gift you prepared? "The white-haired old man suddenly asked.
“Twenty top-quality body-tempering pills, ten thousand taels of silver, "Nineteen Styles of Yun Wu Ji"." Gao Yu said.
“Not even close." The white-haired old man shook his head..
“Is this still bad? "Gao Yu was shocked..
In his opinion, this is good enough. After all, it is just a meeting gift. When Wu Yuan joins the sect, many more cultivation resources will be provided..
“Please give the palace master a signal." Gao Yu saw that the palace master had made up his mind..
“There is no need to provide yellow and white things." The white-haired old man said: "Guji, bring the things over here..”
Bang~The side door opens.
A middle-aged man in linen with an ordinary face walked in, lowered his head and held a white jade bottle in both hands..
“This is? "Gao Yu was curious..
“Open it and smell it, and you will know." The white-haired old man said with a smile..
Gao Yu took it from the middle-aged man in Mai, carefully opened the cork of the bottle, put his nose close to it, and suddenly felt refreshed.！
“this！”
Gao Yu was startled, and he already understood the contents. He put the cork on the bottle and looked up at the white-haired old man in shock: "Master, the two ancestors got this for you with great difficulty..”
“I am too old and there is no hope for a breakthrough. I have taken most of this stuff and only have this little left." The white-haired old man smiled and said: "Didn't you say that Wu Yuan may have awakened the 'Upper Dantian Palace'?？”
“This thing might suit him！”
“Palace Master." Gao Yu couldn't help but said.
“Don't you listen to what I say? The white-haired old man frowned: "Remember, don't get rid of this thing. This is all I have, and the Supreme Lord and others may not have it in their hands." "Disciple understands," Gao Yu said solemnly..
Carefully put the jade bottle into a box and put it away.
“Once the identities of Gao Yu and Wu Yuan are revealed, they will definitely attract prying eyes from all parties, so someone needs to accompany them to protect them." The white-haired old man said: "You are not good at protection..”
“ancient times！”
The white-haired old man said: "This time, you go with Protector Gao, and come to see me again after escorting Wu Yuan safely to the sect..”
“Yes." The middle-aged man in Mai nodded, still lowering his head..
He stood directly next to Gao Yu.
“Disciple accepts the order." Gao Yu also handed over his hand..
He knew in his heart that this 'Guji' whom he had never seen before went to Licheng to protect Wu Yuan..
At the same time, he is also monitoring himself.
“Hall Master, time is pressing, so this disciple will not waste any time and rush back to Licheng overnight." Gao Yu said..
“Go." The white-haired old man waved..
……
Naturally, Wu Yuan, who was far away from the city, didn't know what happened in Nanmeng City. He cleaned up everything and went home to rest..
It seems like nothing happened！
The next day, after the rain and the sky cleared, Wu Yuan went to his ancestral home as usual, and then wandered around the streets and alleys of Wu's house.’.
……“Wu Yuan is still alive？”
“And unscathed! "Xu Shouyi, who had been waiting in the study room of Xu Mansion all night, could hardly believe his ears when listening to his subordinate's report..
It shouldn't be！
However, he waved his hand calmly: "Go down and let Commander Liu tell the county lieutenant to arrange for more city guards to patrol the area around Wu Yuan's house to make sure nothing goes wrong..”
“Yes." How did this guard understand these profound meanings?？
I thought my general really cared about Wu Yuan.
“how so？”
Xu Shouyi, who was alone, walked back and forth in the study, frowning: "Fifty thousand taels of silver! Jiulongshan clearly promised that it would send a strong enough force to assassinate him within one day, but Wu Yuan was only a martial artist, and there were no other masters in the Wu family..”
He can't figure it out！
Although Jiulong Mountain is not as good as Qixing Tower and Jiusha Mansion, it is still a first-rate dark force! Reputation is still enough！
until night falls.
Xu Shouyi disguised his identity and entered the Jiulong Mountain stronghold. He just received an envelope explaining the mission from Jiulong Mountain and a small package.！
He quickly dismantled！
“The operation failed, and the three bronze medal killers disappeared after entering the streets of the Wu family? 90% chance of death! You suspected that a top-notch expert was protecting Wu Yuan, so you gave up the mission? "Xu Shouyi stared at the contents of the letter in stunned silence..
This was beyond his expectation.
First-rate master？
He has already confirmed that Gao Yu has left the martial arts academy. First-class masters are not cabbage. There are only a few first-class masters in the entire Nanmeng County.？
This is also the reason why Jiulongshan gave up its mission.
There is a first-class master, the assassination is too difficult, fifty thousand taels of silver？
One hundred thousand taels of silver are not enough！
“waste！”
“This Jiulong Mountain is really a bunch of trash! "Xu Shouyi's eyes flickered as he looked at the pile of banknotes in the opened package..
Only 20,000 taels of silver notes.
Three bronze medal killers missing.
Therefore, even if the operation failed and Jiulongshan gave up the mission, it still charged the cost of '30,000 taels of silver' and only refunded 20,000 taels.！
Thinking for a long time.
“The possibility of Jiulongshan lying to me is very low! Xu Shouyi shook his head slightly: "There are really first-class masters guarding Wu Yuan."？”
“The sect is too cautious.”
As far as he knows, unless the special move is truly confirmed, the sect will not send experts to directly protect it..
At least, we shouldn’t directly send first-class experts.
“How much money does it cost to continue the assassination? "Xu Shouyi asked directly.
“If you don't answer, we are just one county and we are not capable of killing first-class masters." The black-robed man affiliated with Jiulong Mountain shook his head and said: "What's more, this Wu Yuan is highly valued by the Hengyun Sect, and the risk is too high. If you really want to Should we report to the headquarters and ask experts to kill him? At least five hundred thousand taels！”
“Five hundred thousand taels? "Xu Shouyi glared..
Too dark！
It's darker than Jiusha Mansion！
However, Xu Shouyi understood that this was because Jiu Sha Mansion did not know that Wu Yuan was guarded by a first-rate master..
Otherwise, the price asked by Jiu Sha Mansion will only be higher..
“Now, we’re in trouble.” Xu Shouyi stood up and left the Jiulong Mountain stronghold..
The more the sect attaches importance to Wu Yuan, the more terrifying it will be if Wu Yuan takes revenge in the future..
Sneak all the way.
Xu Shouyi returned to his mansion.
Not long after he changed his clothes, Butler Xu hurried over: "General, it's a big thing, a big thing."！”
“event? What's the big deal? "Xu Shouyi suppressed his inner irritability..
“general.”
Butler Xu said: "These days, I have been arranging people to investigate the Liehu Gang, and have basically found out why the mysterious gunman joined the Liehu Gang.！”
“Why? "Xu Shouyi was also aroused with curiosity..
“It's for a token." Butler Xu handed over two pieces of paper and said, "For this thing, Yang Long killed almost all the people who knew about the village. Only two people survived by hiding in a cesspool. We caught them and forced them to come out. This is the shape of the token they traced..”
Xu Shouyi connected.
Take a look.
“Chujiang Order? "Xu Shouyi's eyes lit up and his breathing became rapid..
“God will not kill me！”
