The moon and stars are sparse.
In the room in the inner courtyard of Li Garden.
Xuan Ming's eyes brightened obviously after hearing what the young master in front of him said.
What is the purpose of being a killer? Firstly, hobby, secondly, make money, make money, make money!
In this world, who can resist the temptation to earn more?
After all, practicing martial arts is a very expensive thing. Pills, exercises, and treasures of heaven and earth, none of them require money.
Over the years, in order to improve his martial arts, he had spent all the money he had saved. Now that he had joined the Li family, he suddenly found that he could not even afford a house in the capital.
Nowadays, there is a job that pays well in front of you, which is really hard to refuse.
"Young Master."
After struggling in his heart for a long time, Xuan Ming looked at the person in front of him and smiled bitterly, "I don't understand the matter of intelligence."
"Just learn."
Li Ziye said calmly, "No one is born knowing this. You should learn it quickly while I still have some time."
"Young Master, my subordinates don't understand, why me?" Xuan Ming asked in confusion.
"Because you are smart and contented."
Li Ziye put down the teacup in his hand and said, "You can also see that the Li family lacks nothing. Whatever you want, the Li family will try their best to satisfy you. However, if you can afford to eat and drink, you should not do it. , the gain outweighs the loss, you have done very well in this aspect, better than the earth ghost."
"My subordinate understands."
Xuan Ming suddenly realized and said with regret, "It's indeed a pity to the ghost."
"Instead of talking about her, let's talk about your choice."
Li Ziye said calmly, "Xuan Ming, I will tell you frankly today that I want your absolute loyalty, not to me, but to the entire Li family. I know this is a bit difficult, very difficult, but I still want to Ask."
"Young Master, I can only promise that I will never betray the Li family."
Xuan Ming looked at the young master in front of him and said seriously, "But if I were asked to sacrifice my life for the Li family, I think I might not be able to do it."
Hearing this, Li Ziye fell silent. After a moment, he nodded and said, "That's enough. Xuan Ming, the list of hidden stakes in my hand is the key to the Li family's intelligence network. If one day, you want to leave, Then return this list to Taotao."
While talking, Li Ziye took out a secret letter from his arms, handed it over, and warned, "Memorize it, and then burn it."
"Young Master, why don't you take this list yourself?" Xuan Ming asked doubtfully without rushing to pick it up.
"There are many reasons."
Li Ziye sighed softly and said, "In short, you must keep this list in your mind. Unless you want to leave, never tell anyone the names on it."
Xuan Ming heard what the young master in front of him said and looked at the secret message in the former's hand. For some reason, he was a little afraid to pick it up.
"Young Master."
After weighing it for a few seconds, Xuan Ming smiled bitterly, but still did not dare to agree, and refused, "I feel that I cannot bear this burden. Regardless of strength, wisdom, or loyalty, I am not outstanding in the Li family. Such a burden, It’s really hard to do.”
Having said this, Xuan Ming hesitated for a moment, looked out the window, and asked, "Young Master, haven't the Li family's intelligence networks been handed over to Miss Qingxuan?"
"She has a bright line."
Li Ziye said calmly, "These are all hidden lines, hidden stakes that have never been used before."
"Young Master, can't you trust Miss Qingxuan?" Xuan Ming asked bravely.
"That's not true."
Li Ziye shook his head slightly and explained, "I have thought about this for a long time. After much thought, it is more appropriate to let the people who walk in the dark control the hidden line. I will choose you. .”
"Where is Tianzhique?"
Xuan Ming questioned, "That guy's cultivation level is a little higher than mine, and he joined the Li family a little earlier than me. Is he more suitable for this responsibility?"
"He's not suitable."
Li Ziye shook his head and replied, "He still has unresolved obsessions in his heart, and he can't concentrate on the affairs of the Li family because of his worries. In this regard, he is not as good as you, Xuan Ming, think about it carefully. How can you live in this profession of a killer?" After all, it’s time to lick blood. After playing for so many years, it’s time to quit.”
"Young Master, I am very grateful for your trust, but I still don't believe that I can shoulder this burden."
Xuan Zhen thought for a while and refused for the third time, "Although the life of a killer is dangerous, the advantage is that one person has enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry. Even if the mission fails, the only loss will be his own life, and he will not harm others." , I can’t say that I am a good person, but I don’t want to harm the people around me because of my incompetence.”
"Don't rush to answer. Think about it later."
Li Ziye said something, temporarily put away the secret message in his hand, and said seriously, "Three days, I will give you three days. After three days, if you still have the same answer, I will no longer force you."
"Thank you for your understanding, young master."
Xuan Ming bowed respectfully and said, "Young master, please rest early, and my subordinates will take their leave first."
After saying that, Xuan Ming turned around and left without staying any longer.
After Xuan Ming left, Li Ziye sat quietly at the table and closed his eyes tiredly.
In three days, things in the capital have been arranged, and it's time for him to go to the battlefield.
This time, I am afraid that I will face that crazy woman in Shangtantai Jingyue.
Can he still win now?
"Young Master."
In the quiet night, the lights danced silently. About a quarter of an hour later, Taotao pushed in the door with a bowl of lotus seed soup and said softly, "It's just cooked, eat it while it's hot."
Li Ziye opened his eyes, looked at the medicinal soup made of snow lotus in front of him, and said, "Taotao, it's useless. There's no need to waste money and time."
"It will be better after all."
Taotao said stubbornly, "Young Master, eat it while it's hot."
Li Ziye was silent, but still brought the lotus seed soup over.
"Young master, if you really can't do it, can you ask Hongyi to come over and help you?"
Taotao looked at the tired young master in front of her and said unbearably, "Hong Yi's injury is almost healed. For the second young master, Hong Yi is not needed to take over for the time being. Let him come over. The burden can also be reduced a lot.”
"no."
Li Ziye didn't even think about it and vetoed decisively, "It's not suitable for Hong Yi to appear in public, at least not now."
"I'm afraid that the young master won't be able to hold on."
Taotao said distressedly, "After all, your body is not as good as before."
"fine."
Li Ziye forced a smile on his face and responded, "Tianzhique, Xuanming, these people who later joined the Li family are quite good. Wait a moment, and wait until they completely regard themselves as a member of the Li family. Can be entrusted with important responsibilities.”
"Speaking of Xuan Ming, I don't understand. Since that list is so important, why did the young master choose him who was the last to join the Li family?" Taotao asked in confusion.
"Xuan Ming is the first among the shadow killers to join the Yanyu Tower."
Li Ziye answered truthfully, "Actually, both I and Uncle Hei and Aunt Bai have always believed that Xuan Ming would be the first person to join the Li family. However, some accidents happened later and Tianzhique came first."
"Young Master, what do you mean, Uncle Hei and Aunt Bai also agree with this matter?" Taotao asked in surprise.
"Um."
Li Ziye nodded and said, "Aunt Bai's evaluation of Xuan Ming is that Xuan Ming's intelligence lies in the fact that he never tries to act smart. This is very valuable. You also know that in the position of intelligence leader, acting smart will kill many people. "
