In the evening, the state of Jin.
There was a panic everywhere on the supposedly lively street.
The common people ran around in fright.
Because someone killed someone in the street. Several guards who cleared the way of the Jin royal family were beheaded in the street.
"I didn't expect you to be able to ambush me here. You are so courageous." Zong Zhilian shook his son's fan lightly, sat in the sedan chair, looked at the several black-clothed warriors opposite, and said without changing his expression.
On his way to Zuo Guoshi's mansion, he was ambushed unexpectedly.
Several guards were beheaded, and he frowned slightly, but he knew in his heart that this was a last resort.
"False king of Jin! You usurped the position of king of Jin for a few months, what else can you say? This honor is to let you die, and it is considered an honor to die." The warrior headed opposite said proudly: "Today I have a bloody hand, so I came to take your head worth fifty million taels of silver."
Xue Shoutuo is a famous bounty hunter in the western part of the Central Plains. His strength is said to be at the peak of nine stars, and some people say he has reached the level of a moon-rank saint, but there is no definite evidence.
The asking price for this person's murder is extremely high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to become his target. A typical character who has not opened for three years and has been in business for three years. I don't know when he was bought by political opponents and came to assassinate Zong Zhilian. He didn't carry out assassination, but shook the royal guards in the street, obviously he was quite confident in his Xuanwu level.
"I'm so valuable." Zong Zhilian looked bitter.
Xue Shoutuo said: "Even if it is a fake King Jin, there is still a price."
"I don't need to ask you who will buy my head. I just want to ask you. Do you know why I only brought a few followers today?" Zong Zhilian quickly changed his face and smiled.
Xue Shoutuo smiled and said, "Where are you talking so much? In front of my moon-level saint, it is useless for you to bring a few more star fighters. It is your fault that you have not hired a saint by your side."
"So, you have already reached the realm of a moon-level saint?" Zong Zhilian looked extremely surprised: "If you really have such a realm, I can only consider bribing you with ten times the bounty. Just killed."
Xue Shou Toutuo said: "Hahaha, after all, you are the one who becomes the King of Jin temporarily. You are wise! The reward I got is 50 million taels, and I have already received the prepaid 20 million taels. If you can get If I pay 20 million taels of silver, I can consider turning around."
Several people who assisted in the assassination next to him couldn't help grinning secretly when they heard this. They are the employer's people. Naturally, I was worried that he would get cold feet. But even if the wealth of the country is overwhelming, it is impossible to spend 20 million taels for the sake of an assassination. It is estimated that the treasury of Jin State is not enough.
Sure enough, Zong Zhilian's face was full of sadness: "Such a large amount. It scares me to death. I'd better think about killing it..."
"Hey, then stick your head out obediently." Xue Shoutuo grinned grimly, "Forgive you for not stretching your neck obediently, then I will kill all your guards..."
"Wait, don't you have anyone to be afraid of?" Zong Zhilian said suddenly.
"I'm afraid of the Sanshengzong. But Qi Wu's relationship is tense, so he probably can't take care of me for a while. And the price of 50 million taels is too tempting..."
"What about Xiao Ruoyao? Are you not afraid?" Zong Zhilian suddenly mentioned Wu Zhe's name.
"Xiao Ruoyao?" Xue Shoutuo was startled.
Wu Zhe himself doesn't know, but in fact Xiao Ruoyao's name is already very famous in the Jianghu, and it can even be said to be no less than Qi Fei's name Lingbo Fairy in the Jianghu.
The identity of the disciple of the Zongjian Sect Master's direct disciple can be ignored, just her record. He almost single-handedly defeated two batches of Wu Kingdom's armies, and killed several moon-level saints including Snake Lao in a row. Which woman can do it in decades? In addition, Xiao Ruoyao can be called a legendary figure by the word of mouth in the world.
There was also news of the demise of the Magic Sound Valley, because Xiao Ruoyao killed all the masters of the Magic Sound Valley, including Yin Guzhu, the moon-level saint, which led to the tragic ending of the Magic Sound Valley.
So I heard Xiao Ruoyao's name. As long as you are a gangster, you have to weigh it.
"Hey, Xiao Ruoyao is my good friend..." Zong Zhilian just said half a sentence with a playful smile. Suddenly, a guard beside him took half a step towards his sedan chair, and he was so frightened that he quickly changed his words: "Xiao Ruoyao is my friend. If you dare to kill me, she will definitely not let you go."
Xue Shou Tuo smiled and said: "Haha, I have heard that Xiao Ruoyao has something to do with you. But she was seriously injured by lightning, and she recovered pretty well, so she can still take care of you?"
"Uh... I can't scare you." Zong Zhilian seemed to be very sad: "Then Xiao Ruoyao's lover is here. Do you dare to touch me?"
"..." Two cold eyes from the side cast over, making Zong Zhilian shudder.
"Okay. It's Xiao Ruoyao's friend—Hu Yunshang." Zong Zhilian actually used the name of an idiot.
"I have already received information from people around you. Hu Yunshang is just a warrior who has advanced by leaps and bounds and cultivated to around six or seven stars. Do you still want to count on him?" Xue Shoutuo felt like listening to a joke: "You want to talk about Bo channel I'm a little worried, but now that I haven't burst out my profound energy, and he's halfway away from the city, how can I save you in time?"
"Far water can't quench your near thirst. Don't be afraid of Bo channel leader, I can understand." Zong Zhilian urged: "But if you really have the ability, if you scold Xiao Ruoyao a few times, you will know that Hu Yun is seriously injured."
"Calling Xiao Ruoyao? I'm bored?" Xueshoutuo grinned, "That little beauty can't bear the pain. If the lightning strike doesn't hurt her body and face, I'd consider taking her..."
crack——
Suddenly there was a sound of a knife being unsheathed.
Accompanied by a young man's faint but dignified voice: "Whoever says nothing to Ruoyao, die—"
Xueshoutuo only felt a white light flash in front of his eyes.
The young guard has drawn his sword!
In Xue Shoutuo's eyes, the sky and the earth suddenly shone brightly.
The whole person seemed to have entered a terrifying world.
This is the world of knives, and it is invisible and qualityless, only the light of the knives is dazzling!
Danger-!
The bloody hands are torn apart! The horror of death exploded from my heart.
*****************
On the Tiandi Pavilion, Wu Zhe made great progress after Princess Qing left.
After Wu Zhe played with Princess Yoyo for a long time, he began to cook for her.
It is said to be a dish, but it is actually a noodle.
There is a kitchen on the second top floor. There are special personnel to carry the ingredients, fire materials, etc. on the back of the cabinet, which is a typical performance of the royal family's willfulness when they have money.
"The taste of these noodles..." Princess Youyou frowned as she ate the noodles made by Wu Zhe.
"What's wrong?" Wu Zhe asked knowingly.
"It's delicious!" Princess Yoyo said to Wu Zhe with a smile on her face.
But she was holding back tears as she spoke.
Don't cry, it might be bad.
Princess Yoyo moved her small face closer to the noodle bowl, making herself look as if her eyes were reddened by the heat.
"Be careful it's hot!" Wu Zhe snorted: "I put too much onion and garlic on purpose, it should have the taste of Qi. Do you like it?"
Princess Youyou didn't answer either, just laughed and ate noodles occasionally with a squeaky sound.
She's smart and already feels something. Just can't quite confirm it yet.
Because the looks and even the heights are completely different, and the ages are also different. Moreover, how could she be in Wu country? Or Princess Wu's friend
Princess Yoyo is young, but she has seen a lot. Her small mind knew that the people who could see her here were all important ministers or trusted people of Wu Kingdom.
So how could she be sister Ruoyao
But Princess Youyou ate the noodles in his mouth, but felt that the taste was exactly the same as the noodles that he ate in the noodle shop that time.
In the world, it is inevitable that there will be exactly the same things.
But one state of Qi, one state of Wu, the taste of two bowls of noodles should not be the same. What's more, this is the Imperial Palace of the Wu Kingdom, how can it be compared with ordinary small shops
Princess Yoyo's little head was eating noodles while peeking at Wu Zhe.
Maybe she'll knock the chopsticks away? Princess Youyou said in his heart.
That way, it was clear that she was her!
This girl is smart. Wu Zhe noticed that Princess Yoyo started to look like the female version of the little detective Hui Yuanai, looking for evidence on her own body.
As long as you knock the chopsticks away, like when you sneaked out of the palace with her, you can clearly tell her that you are Xiao Ruoyao.
However, the five female guards around could probably see something!
Wu Zhe knew that making noodles was a bit suspicious, but fortunately, it could be said that Princess Youyou refused to eat, so he cooked casually and made a bowl of noodles for her.
Wu Zhe thought about it, and then he couldn't show any more hints, otherwise it would form a loophole.
Even if Princess Qing is not around, these five female guards belong to the spy agency, how can they be underestimated? Maybe which one can see the flaw.
"Huh—" Princess Youyou ate a bowl of noodles, holding her stomach and panting.
Fortunately, Wu Zhe didn't dare to cut too many noodles because of her small size, otherwise she might make something wrong.
If Wu Zhe let her brush the ground now, Princess Youyou would also know that Zhou Zhiruo is Xiao Ruoyao. But there was no follow-up words, which disappointed Princess Youyou a little.
Although Xiao Youyou is smart, she can't think as deeply as Wu Zhe. You can only comprehend it with your own understanding.
While she was eating, her mind was spinning.
"Let's play backgammon again!" Princess Yoyo tried to distinguish from the chess patterns of backgammon.
The chess style of backgammon is different from that of Go, and it is difficult to say that a certain style is a certain person. Princess Yoyo thought at first that she hadn't noticed before, but after playing, she realized that there was no way to trace her. Huarong Dao's way of walking is similar, and people cannot be judged.
It was getting late, Princess Youyou felt a little tired, but suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Sister Zhiruo, can you sleep with me?"
Wu Zhe could detect the slight change in her mood, and guessed that she had thought of some way to determine her identity.
But why sleep? Wu Zhe didn't even understand.
What kind of identification method did Xiao Youyou think of
