One sentence made everyone speechless.
As if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him, his originally high emotions suddenly fell down.
Everyone present was silent, and their anxious mood finally calmed down.
That's right.
The tasks and missions burdened on them have only just begun.
"It's actually easy to indulge yourself."
Looking up at the poplar tree in the courtyard, I saw that the thick branches were piled with cold snow.
Old Sun closed his eyes, shook his head and sighed: "But what is really difficult to do is to control oneself."
He glanced at the people in the courtyard.
The gray-haired man's eyes were sharp and he continued: "If you can't even calm down, why do you think you are an elite team of the Great Xia Empire?"
As soon as these words came out.
The faces of the members of the suicide squad suddenly darkened, and a group of young people led by Luo Wenyao immediately felt a little ashamed of themselves.
These fearless thorns never worry about encountering strong enemies or challenges. The only thing they fear is the looks of contempt and disappointment from others.
He watched all this with cold eyes.
Xue Yun stood with his hands behind his hands, an intriguing smile on his lips, and he was somewhat pleased to see this.
As the saying goes, words spoken three times are as clear as water.
Faced with this group of guys who were a hundred times more difficult to communicate with than the "Golden VIP" team back then, Xue Yun had already chewed his tongue along the way.
It's rare that someone is willing to come forward and educate these lawless fools for him.
As the leader of the team, Xue Yun naturally would not have any complaints.
suddenly--
A worker ran over from the main hall of the drug store and made dancing gestures towards Old Sun.
He nodded towards the job.
Lao Suntou immediately made two gestures and raised his hands. He finally calmed down after having been in a panic, turned around and ran back to the main hall of the drug store.
"Uh, keep asking."
He imitated the gestures of the two and danced.
Xue Yun raised his eyebrows and asked, "What kind of secret code are you using? It's too laborious to communicate."
"It's sign language."
Adjusted his sleeves.
Lao Suntou explained: "Except for me, all the other clerks in this pharmacy are mute."
"and......"
There was a pause.
Lao Suntou wrote lightly: "They were all voluntarily poisoned and silenced by my own hands."
Hear the words.
Everyone, including Xue Yun, was slightly startled.
obviously--
This medicine shop is basically a nail planted by the Daxia Empire on the northern border.
Its function is to prevent it before it happens, and one day be able to cooperate with the domestic night watchmen to carry out effective counterattacks against the Principality of Aisha.
Except for the boss Lao Suntou, all the other guys are mute.
This will undoubtedly increase the safety factor of the drug store's secret espionage operations.
Only at this moment did Xue Yun understand.
Why did the guys here turn a deaf ear to me when I walked into the drug store just now?
In fact, they are not ordinary people. Like Lao Suntou, they are also secret service personnel who have been lurking in enemy countries all year round for the safety of the Great Xia Empire.
For the sake of his mission, he not only left his hometown for several years, but was even willing to kill himself.
The members of the Suicide Squad couldn't help but be stunned, and their views on Lao Suntou and his gang had also changed drastically.
"Actually, you don't have to worry."
He took a deep breath and adjusted his mind.
Old Suntou walked towards the front hall of the drug store and said to himself: "Since you all have important responsibilities for your family and country, when you come to my place, even if the sky suddenly falls, I, a bad old man, will bear it first."
"I'll deal with the people outside..."
The steps seemed extremely heavy.
Lao Suntou looked deeply and said without looking back: "You go into the room first and don't expose the target easily. If an accident happens, take the fat guy in the room and leave here immediately. Don't worry about us."
The implication is already very obvious.
The "Guta Thatched Cottage" can be uprooted, but Xue Yun and his gang must not show their heads easily.
Abandon soldiers to protect commanders, choose wisely——
It was related to the safety of the Great Xia Empire. Old Sun Tou would rather let his years of hard work be destroyed than let Xue Yun and others have even the slightest accident.
"Old Suntou..."
He ripped off his standard fur coat.
Xue Yun stepped forward suddenly, stood side by side with him, and stretched out his hand frankly: "You should have some of the clothes of the clerks in the drug store, right?"
He was slightly startled.
Old Suntou frowned and asked suspiciously: "What do you mean?"
"It's a bit unreasonable to rely on you to do it alone."
He shook his head silently.
Xue Yun grinned and said in a deep voice: "As the person in charge of this mission, it is my job to avoid risks and collect intelligence."
Pulled off the collar.
Xue Yun continued: "I also want to see what these city defense troops want to do. Don't worry, just treat me as an ordinary guy. Whenever I find something wrong, I will be the first to kill you and then lead Let everyone evacuate immediately..."
He glanced at Lao Suntou.
Xue Yun said earnestly: "After all, if you fall into the hands of the enemy, your life will only be worse than death. It would be better to end it once and for all."
Work together and keep track of multiple parties to silence each other at critical moments.
This is basically a trick used by the espionage departments in the major fortress cities of the Daxia Empire.
Its purpose is not to leave any chance for the enemy to survive during a special period, but also to prevent the formation of wrong tacit understandings within small groups that are not conducive to the interests of the top.
He served in the Longdu War Preparedness Department for several years.
With Xue Yun's nature, he has always scorned these anti-human tactics, but this does not hinder his understanding of them.
"Haha, that's fine. This way, it will be more foolproof."
He smiled coldly.
Lao Suntou showed no fear and immediately gestured towards the waiter standing in the courtyard.
The latter quickly took out a drug store clerk's outfit from the house, bowed and handed it to Xue Yun respectfully.
"But, we have something to say first..."
Seeing Xue Yun put on the clothes of a waiter.
Lao Suntou put away his smile and said with a stern expression: "When it comes time to take action, use your hands and feet as swiftly as possible, so that my brothers and I don't suffer too much."
Didn't respond to the other party.
Xue Yun tightened his collar, looked back at the confused subordinates, and immediately scolded: "What are you looking at? Come into the room quickly and keep an eye on Baby Helian. If he goes crazy again, everyone will have to follow him." Let’s finish together!”
Reacted suddenly.
The assassins of the Suicide Squad quickly turned around and swarmed into the bedroom.
"I'll go, it's too cruel..."
Lu Le shook his head silently and murmured softly: "I think Old Man Sun is actually quite righteous. Captain Xue is better off. It's okay if he doesn't appreciate it. At critical moments, he has to go out of his way to spy on others and kill everyone's mouths. This It really doesn’t make sense…”
"Hmph, you don't understand."
The elder Yuan Yingwu shook his head and said: "When you are born in troubled times, excessive compassion and loyalty will only harm yourself in the end. If you want to survive, you must not be kind to women. This is the most basic principle of the apocalyptic wasteland era."
Hear the words.
Black Pearl smiled coldly and looked back at the backs of Xue Yun and Lao Suntou.
No matter what, she would never believe that Xue Yun would be so ruthless.
There may be other variables in this...
