Facing Meltem's request, Guo Kang had no choice but to point out the location of the bathhouse to her. Fortunately, Meltem was already satisfied with being able to take a bath and did not continue to pester him and left happily.
After sending her away, Guo Kang was relieved. He looked at Theodora and found that she was lying on the seat without any strength, with a look of despair on her face.
"What's wrong with you?" he asked quickly.
"I finally know, this guy didn't mean to cause harm at all!" Theodora said feebly: "She is just heartless!"
"Uh...then why are you angry?" Guo Kang asked tentatively.
"Can I not be angry? If she were a normal person, I could drive her away. But with her like this, should I be asked to debate scriptures with a mentally retarded little girl?" Theodora complained.
"You have to understand her. She grew up in a different environment." Guo Kang advised.
"At the beginning, Aunt Isel relied on the gold and silver she brought out and the help of several old subordinates to find the secret assassin organization calling itself 'Assassin', and let Meltem train there since he was a child. It is estimated that it is also I want her to help me get revenge."
"Isn't the Assassin sect very famous? How do you teach people like this..." Theodora said speechlessly: "Don't they only teach light skills and not even social common sense? If such an assassin enters the The city is looking for the target, and the secret must be revealed that day."
"They are not the Assassins of the past." Guo Kang shook his head and said: "The Assassins of the past were wiped out by the Mongols because they plotted to assassinate the Great Khan. Our ancestors of the Guo family also participated in that battle. He designed the ropeway that carried the trebuchet up Eagle's Nest Mountain."
"After the fall of the Assassin sect, several small sects emerged that claimed to be their successors and imitated their behavior. The family Meltem went to was one of them. These people claimed that their teachers came from that time A disciple who is out on the field."
"Of course, it's hard to say how true it is." He thought for a while and said metaphorically: "Even if it is true, the legitimacy of their inheritance is at most the level of Zhu Yunwen's 'Government of King Wu of the Ming Dynasty'."
"Oh, that makes it easier to understand." Theodora nodded: "So it's such a grass platform."
"Yes." Although he felt sorry for Zhu Wenkui, Guo Kang felt that this example was really tried and true: "I even suspected that they were an association of enthusiasts imitating the Assassins."
"Although I don't know where the kung fu inheritance comes from, the training system has been completely broken. It's all up to the current masters to teach by themselves. There is nothing we can do to teach such children."
"It's not easy to send her here." Theodora said helplessly: "Where does this guy live every day? He can actually survive in Dadu."
"She lives in a hotel." Guo Kang said.
"Huh? I thought the assassin was going to sleep in the open air. Why did the conditions suddenly get better?" Theodora said in surprise.
"She is different from other people. She is sponsored by someone." Guo Kang said, "You know the Knights Templar?"
"I know." Theodora nodded, a little surprised: "Don't tell me that the Templars also came out. Aren't they killed by the King of France long ago? Are they also a group of role-playing enthusiasts?"
"They are not." Guo Kang waved his hand: "The Knights Templar were a famous international financial institution back then. The French king could only arrest some of them. How could it be so easy to catch them all. After the main part of the Knights was destroyed by France, the remaining Most of the people fell and scattered, but some people persisted."
"The Knights Templar had some remnant activities in the port of Asia Minor, and they met them by chance. They happened to hear that France and Rome had formed an alliance, and thought they could get the necessary information from here to plan revenge against France. So, The Knights recruited Meltem to join them, gave her a lot of money, and asked her to help find out information from the French ambassador during her spare time."
"So, don't look at her stupidity, her reputation is not small." Guo Kang said dumbfounded: "She is a Templar and an Assassin."
"What a mess..." Theodora was speechless: "Can she really get any information like this?"
"Yes. She is usually naive, but she can do serious business." Guo Kang said, "And it's not difficult to get information about France."
"How did she do it?" Theodora asked: "I really haven't asked about the details of this kind of thing."
"She followed the mistresses of the French ambassador and then scared them to tell the news. When those Greek women heard that she was Assassin, they were very scared. They asked questions and even helped her to talk." Guo Kang said: "Ask. My family can also get a copy of the news that comes out, so everyone lets her roam around."
"Is that so..." Theodora sighed subconsciously before realizing the problem: "So, she has known you for a long time?"
"It wasn't too long." Guo Kang said: "It wasn't her at the beginning. It was Aunt Isel who came in person and insisted on taking my adoptive father away to confront her."
"I have never seen her," said Theodora.
"She is still recovering from her injuries. Every time she comes, her adoptive mother will intercept her." Guo Kang lowered his voice with some fear: "And let me tell you, it may not be just them..."
"Why?"
"Oh my God, you have never seen how fierce they fight." Guo Kang shook his head repeatedly: "The gladiators in ancient Rome were not as scary as the jealous female heroes. I think they should go to the big arena to fight in public. This will scare all the Greeks into Socrates-level philosophers..."
"Okay, okay, you deserve a beating." Seeing that he couldn't even hold back his complaints, Theodora quickly stopped him.
"Okay... Anyway, after a few confrontations, they seemed to have changed the venue." Guo Kang had no choice but to continue: "After that, Meltem came to attack his adoptive father."
"At first, the adoptive father didn't want to embarrass her. But Meltem was also very good at seeking death at that time, so the adoptive father couldn't help it and decided to teach her a few words."
"What did he say?" asked Theodora.
"While he was practicing the exercises, Meltem closed his eyes and rested in the yard. He climbed over the wall and tried to tie him with a rope. His adoptive father ignored her and waited until she was tied before opening his eyes and telling her that it was okay. use."
"He smiled and told Meltem that this kind of rope was too fragile and could not bind the muscles that had been strictly exercised." Guo Kang raised his chest and said, "Then he just pulled away and used his chest and back muscles to tie up the muscles." The thin rope just broke."
"Meltem was scared to death at the time. After that, he never looked for him again. He came to arrest me instead..." Guo Kang concluded helplessly: "These are what she told me later."
"..." It took Theodora a while to come back to her senses: "Then her psychological quality is pretty good."
"But, there is still a problem." She asked Guo Kang: "Since life here is not easy, why don't they go back to repair it? The same goes for the New Assassin Sect. It is so difficult to operate here, why don't they go back and develop first? Woolen cloth?"
"Because their hometown is gone." Guo Kang said, "Meltem told me that the terrible forces from the east have invaded their original territory."
"Why does it feel like it's an old script again?" Theodora frowned: "Who is it this time?"
"According to her, they are a group of extreme Confucian scholars called 'Kongbu elements.'" Guo Kang explained.
