The bad news is that time is running out for action, and the risks of action have risen again.
The good news is... there's still a chance.
"In the four thousand years since the founding of Jingguo, all roads have been walked by people, and there are people in all positions. The space to go up has become very narrow. Nowadays, some young people with promising prospects are developing in Tianjing City. If there are Choice, who wants to stay in Taiping City?"
"This place is said to be a famous and majestic city, but its glory has long been tarnished, and it is not an important border town. It's nice to say that it is indulged in leisure activities and has lax armaments. I came here a day earlier and visited the city lord's house several times. I can't hear any movement."
"When You Que left Tianjing City, he lost the chance to compete and was driven back to his hometown."
"Now he lives alone in the small courtyard in the northeast corner. Well, this is it."
King Qin Guang gesticulated with his finger: "The You family's servants don't come here very often. I didn't throw him into the woodshed or drive him out of the house to die, just for the sake of the minimum dignity of the You family's children. The You family now only treats him as There is no such person."
It has been more than 20 years since You Que's Taoist heart collapsed during the Battle of the Defenders in 3898 of the Dao Calendar.
This is quite a long time.
You Jia must have tried all possible and unusable methods, but to no avail.
He gave up on himself, and finally Youjia also gave up on him.
King Wu Guan said stiffly but methodically: "Then this task is very simple. Let's give King Taishan a chance to atone for his sins. Let him crush You Que to death without making any noise and bring his head to see you. Go first, I will hand over to him here."
Speaking of which, the current King of Taishan is indeed tall, full of blood, and in good health... but it is too obvious that the King of the Risen Officers covets him.
King Qin Guang looked at him dangerously: "Do you think I am recruiting people to buy goods for you?"
The Rogue King shrank back: "I just give advice to the organization...you can disagree."
There can be no fools who can survive in the gateless hell. The Rook King coveted the body of King Taishan, but King Taishan was not stupid and would not do anything that would lead to death. The reason why he always gets into trouble is that sometimes he loses control.
King Bian Cheng ignored the undercurrent between them and maintained a cold attitude: "If killing Youque is really such a simple matter, and the customer can just do it casually, why should he spend a lot of money to find us?"
He looked at King Qin Guang: "As you said, there is no door to hell. There is no need to delve into the client's intentions. But before taking action, I must know what dangers I will face."
Even after more than twenty years, it has been proven that You Que is already a waste.
No matter how many reasons there are to discuss the harmlessness of You Que.
But just the fact that someone offered a high reward to assassinate You Que is enough to illustrate the danger of You Que.
Either You Que is not simple, or the things involved in You Que are not simple.
A person who has cut off his future is also eliminated from the family succession, and there is no power struggle. He has lived in isolation for many years, and there is no competition for interests... So why do people still want to spend a lot of money to pay for his murder?
Please take action, the price is not cheap.
He would rather that You Que had reshaped his Taoist heart and returned to the gods, or that he would still be valued by his family and be well protected. In this way, the risks are still within the known range, and you can easily weigh whether you fight or not.
Now I don’t know what the danger is in the fog, whether it’s a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, so I risk my life to explore it... How many lives can you be so stupid?
"You are right." King Qin Guang thought thoughtfully: "But time is already very tight, and we are in Jingguo, and our actions are very restricted. I am afraid it will be difficult to find out too clearly."
"Why don't you ask King Taishan to go and find out the depth first?" King Wu Guan suddenly came to brainstorm ideas.
King Qin Guang couldn't bear it anymore and slapped him to the ground.
He was like a smashed clay doll, without even a scream. His bones and muscles were separated, and they lay limp under his black robe, like a puddle of mud.
Not long after, another spirit came. The bones were put back together, the flesh and blood continued to cling, the black robe was propped up again, and the Rook King was swaying
He sat down and muttered: "I just won't say anything."
Of course, King Bian Cheng did not miss the strength of the two Yamas, but he kept his eyes straight and said in a cold voice: "If I remember correctly, Lou Junlan should be from Yingtian Mansion. Why did she come to Taiping City?"
King Qin Guang had obviously already investigated it, and he said it succinctly: "She is currently serving in the Jingba Airport. Her position is to serve as a soldier and join the army, and she has the right to patrol. Jingba chooses a different location every year. Time, inspect the military affairs of various prefectures to prevent them from being depleted. Lou Junlan happens to be in charge of Fengtian Prefecture, and is currently inspecting Taiping City."
King Bian Cheng said calmly: "In other words, it is just a coincidence that she came to Taiping City at this time?"
"That's all we can say at the moment." King Qin Guang said: "We can't find more detailed information."
"I don't believe in coincidence." King Bian Cheng said coldly.
The Rogue King drooped his head, not knowing whether he wanted to nod or shake his head.
King Qin Guang thought thoughtfully: "How do you feel about the price?"
King Bian Cheng said bluntly: "You Que gives me a very dangerous feeling."
His future was ruined, he lived in isolation, and was abandoned by his family. It was too easy to remind him of a friend.
"But you haven't met him yet."
"That's why I say it's feeling."!
"I trust your intuition." King Qin Guang nodded: "But the mission has come, and we must win it. To achieve this, reputation is very important."
"Excuse me." King Bian Cheng said unkindly: "Word of mouth?"
King Qin Guang sits casually, his eyes are playful, but his tone is very serious: "As long as the price is right, everyone in the world will die."
＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊
Youjia's old house is also used to seeing wind and rain.
When You Yuheng was here, not to mention the cities in Fengtian Prefecture, there were often dignitaries coming to pay homage to Tianjing City.
The ancestral hall of Youjia has accumulated so much incense and ashes of true feelings.
When I went to the middle region of You Qinxu Jianheng, it was also deep in the mountains, and there were often distant relatives there.
When you go to the Yellow River to win the championship, there are many uncles and elders who take care of the past.
Speaking of which, You Que's ability to participate in the inevitable war of conquest and defense, and to take charge of the army under Yin Xiaoheng's command, was also the result of the care of his uncles.
Otherwise, in the great scenery of four thousand years, how many wealthy families and great opportunities would be easily given to you?
It's a pity that You Que failed to grasp it and failed to recover.
For today's travelers, the big houses in Tianjing City are all deserted and sparsely populated, let alone the old houses in Taiping City. No one has come to visit in ten days and a half, and the incense in the ancestral hall is continued by the You family members themselves.
A rare visitor came this day.
The visitor is Junlan, the pride of a prosperous country.
At the Yellow River Conference, I also competed with Chen Suan for a spot in the outer building, but later lost to fate...
Of course, in that Yellow River Tournament, Jing Guo abandoned the inner and outer competitions, and their fight was in vain.
Lou Junlan was born in the Lou family, known as "the first family in Yingtian".
The most famous strong man in this sect now is Lou Yue, the current number one real person in the Central Region.
With the vastness of the Central Territory and the number of strong men, he can be ranked first. In terms of personal force, he can overwhelm powerful beings such as the leader of the mirror world and the commander of the Eight Armors. The terror of his strength is evident.
Lou Junlan herself is also a divine being, her golden body is indestructible, she has withstood the test in the battlefield of the demon world, and she has a promising future.
When she came out of Youjia's old house in Taiping City, she really couldn't find anyone qualified to receive her.
All the elders who could only guard the temple came out and lined up outside the door.
Lou Junlan, who is in her mid-twenties this year, has delicate facial features and a pleasant appearance, but her eyebrows are very proud.
Today, he is wearing soft armor, which makes him even more cold and solemn, making it difficult for people to get close to him.
"There is no need to be polite." She just got off the carriage and waved her hand to stop the pleasantries: "I am patrolling Tianfu's military affairs, and I am here for the public service. I think of the ancestors of the You family, and I have a strong heart in my heart, so I came here to offer a stick of incense. "
The most qualified elder at the scene was You Qinwei, You Qinxu's younger brother.
Compared to his brother, who was once famous for his bravery in the Central Region, he only realized the arrival of the gods in his old age. As the saying goes, the road is difficult and the cave is hopeless, but he can barely maintain his family reputation by maintaining the ancestral hall and continuing the legacy.
Hearing Lou Junlan's words, You Qinwei nodded: "Thank you for your concern, Miss Lou. Please come here."
Before Lou Junlan stepped up to follow, she glanced at the others lightly: "Mr. You can lead the way alone, others don't have to follow."
You Qinwei also waved his hand, and everyone dispersed.
When You Qinwei and Lou Junlan were no longer visible, You Shirang, the youngest in the generation of the You family, couldn't help complaining: "What are you proud of? Who asked her to come to the door?"
"You just have fun, I didn't slap you. Your eyes are almost on her, you still want to look good?"
An old man next to her said: "Before she participated in the Xingyue Yuan War, she was even more proud than she is now."
You Shirang then sneered.
In the battle of Xingyueyuan, Qi Tianjiao defeated Jing Tianjiao. For every Jingguo genius who participated in the war, it was a stain on their lives.
After all, the people of Jingguo have always been accustomed to winning.
In the You clan's ancestral hall, Lou Junlan carefully placed a stick of incense in front of the memorial tablet of the powerful You clan in the past, and said casually: "Why haven't you seen You Jinglong?"
You Qinwei, who was standing aside, blinked and thought for a while before he remembered who Lou Junlan was asking.
In the past, there was a missing palm in the upper reaches of Guanhetai, which made Changhe Longjun exclaim "unparalleled".
Hence the nickname "Wandering Jinglong".
It has not been heard of for decades!
"There are talented people from generation to generation, but the hidden treasures are unknown." You Qinwei sighed: "In the past, You Jinglong was lost to everyone! I don't care much about it anymore, but Miss Lou still remembers it?"
Lou Junlan said: "Since the journey to the startling dragon, the title of the leader of the inner palace has never returned to the great scene. Maybe one generation is not as good as the other, I can't help but feel ashamed."
You Qinwei gently combed his white beard and said with a hint of meaning: "Not to mention the future, if Wanqi Jingwan is still alive, he may not be as good as Jiang Wang."
Wanqi Jinghu was the genius originally scheduled to participate in the inner palace of Jingguo in the Yellow River Meeting in 3919 of the Dao calendar. He defeated the genius Xu San who was born in Daluoshan, Pei Hongjiu, nephew of Pei family of Zhengtian Mansion, and Pei Xinghe. Arguably earned the spot. In the end, he was trapped in the demon world and died an unexpected death.
This triggered an action of thorough investigation and self-correction within the country, and also caused Jingguo to abandon the inner palace and outer palace one after another, urgently recalled Taiyu Master Li Yi, and let all the gods including Chun Yugui and Zhao Xuanyang of the country , all failed to show their brilliance and were eclipsed.
Lou Junlan did not extend the scope of the discussion, but limited the dimension of the discussion to the title of the chief of the inner government: "In that single match, the chief of the inner government, Wanqi Jinghu did have the strength to challenge Jiang Wang, but to win, I'm afraid there's not much hope. So Qin Zhizhen has such a deep foundation, and his strength on paper is much higher, but he also lost the battle. Although I don't want to admit it, the competition in the inner palace field in Dao Li in 3919 was so fierce, ancient and modern It’s rare, and all the geniuses in the Inner Realm at that time have now been left far behind by Jiang Wang... At that time, many people could compete with him to win or lose, but now I don’t know who can rival him?”
"The so-called luck of the times." You Qinwei said: "The name of the Yellow River is like a rainbow piercing the sun, so it is unparalleled in the world. If Qin Zhizhen was the winner on the river viewing platform back then, he can't be like Qin Changsheng now. , can be called Qin invincible in the presence of gods."
Although You Qinwei's own cultivation level is not very good, Lou Junlan, as a latecomer, is confident that he has surpassed him. But after all, his brother was once the number one real person in the Central Region, and his vision should not be underestimated.
"Mr. You's words made me think deeply." Lou Junlan thought about it and said, "The name of the Yellow River is the great trend, the destiny of humanity. Some people rise up by taking advantage of the trend, and some are suppressed by the trend. Those who cannot withstand the trend are like Zuo The bright star falls in Qinghe County, and the frightening dragon travels to the heart-breaking royal city?"
"Wild King" is the city that You Que massacred back then, and it was also the former important town of the Wei Kingdom. It was here that You Que's Taoist heart collapsed and he became a useless person from then on.
Seeing that Lou Junlan was always talking about You Que, You Qinwei knew that this aspect was inevitable. Finally he said: "You Que has been
After the incident, he became increasingly withdrawn and eccentric. He lived alone in a house and never interacted with others... for fear of being disrespectful. "
Lou Junlan said seriously: "I will pay you a visit."
You Qinwei then stopped stopping him.
To be honest, no one in the You family can stop Lou Junlan. If you are willing to say hello politely here, it is already considered as a courtesy to Junlan.
All the way to the orphanage in this mansion as deep as the sea, weeds can be seen on the gravel road. No one has visited it for an unknown period of time. No one knows when You Que died here.
But You Qinwei didn't hide anything. He walked to the door of the small courtyard, picked up the knocker, and knocked gently: "You Que, there are guests coming to see you! Please tidy up."
After a while, a slow voice sounded: "Don't look, I'm not here."
Lou Junlan took a step forward, with the demeanor of a well-known lady: "Junior Yingtianfu Lou Junlan, I take the liberty to pay you a visit, sir. Please give me your permission."
The voice said impatiently: "No, no, no, no!"
You Qinwei turned his head and looked troubled: "Look, this..."
Lou Junlan smiled politely: "In that case, then..."
She opened the door with one palm, walked into the inner room, and then said calmly: "I'm presumptuous."
The scenery in the small courtyard is very different from what I imagined.
It was afternoon now and the sun was setting. A man wearing coarse linen clothes, with only a wooden hairpin to tie up his long hair, was hoeing the ground with a hoe. At this time, he paused on the hoe handle and looked back calmly, with a kind of calm loneliness in his eyes.
His facial features still look like those of a middle-aged man, but he has a lot of gray hair. He was probably handsome when he was young, but like his white hair, it has withered.
Behind him are lush green vegetables of all kinds.
This lonely courtyard was turned into a vegetable garden by him.
In the ridges of the field, there are chickens foraging and pacing.
There was a dog lying under the eaves over there. When he saw the stranger coming, he stood up and raised his tail.
The warm light in the afternoon makes it look like an ordinary farmhouse.
Living in isolation for decades.
It doesn't seem that lonely.
