The prince was so relieved that he put his life in his hands. What could Shen Li say? He immediately handed over his life and said yes.
The Prince of Nanwu, who seemed to have the air of a wise king, observed Shen Li's expression with a smile, "The peach blossoms in the mountain temple have begun to bloom. In order to go to Woxia Temple with my virtuous brother to enjoy the brilliant peach blossoms blooming along the mountain, I first sent the rebellious ministers who didn't know whether to live or die in front of me. Kill all the thieves."
Immediately.
He smiled at the two of them and said: "Our young master, Zhang Shilang of the Criminal Department, is coming to kill me. He is outside the inn now. There are probably masters from Tongquetai of the Northern Sui Dynasty inside. Go and pick off this man's head for me."
Under the lighted candles, the two mysterious old men were really hesitant to speak. They opened their mouths and wanted to speak but didn't know what to say.
"My dear brother is by my side, nothing happens to me."
The young man hurriedly bowed his head to the prince and handed over his hands. To tell the truth, even though he knew that he was the killer of Xingxiu Cult, he still handed over his safety to Shen Li. It is no wonder that this kind of heart and magnanimity were placed high hopes by so many veterans of the Southern Wu Dynasty. Comparing the children of the Sui clan, they are in the same heaven and on earth.
With no choice but to accept it, the two old men turned around and walked into the darkening night.
The prince turned to look at Shen Li and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, the two masters brought by my brother are both junior second-level masters. Even if a second-level master from Tongque Terrace does come, he will be able to make him return without success. "
Xiao Erpin has two meanings. One is that one has entered the second level realm for the first time, and the other is that one is only one step away from breaking through.
I don't know if the prince meant this by saying this, to discourage Shen Li, or to stop him from worrying about the situation getting out of control.
"Brother, is Mr. Zhang's son named Zhang Run?"
"Well, yes, do you know him? This man is very deep in the city. He seems to be called one of the eight evils of the capital. In fact, he deliberately hides himself. And many of Zhang Shilang's hidden actions in the court were also done by Zhang Runcai . In short, Zhang Run has the cunning heart of a jackal."
Immediately afterwards, Shen Li told how Zhang Run was hunted down and how he broke into the inn to finish the book.
"It doesn't matter. I'll tell you the truth, brother. I have already heard about Zhang Run's group of young people's plans. But in the capital, these people are so meticulous that they cannot seize the opportunity to eradicate them. Now, Zhang Run has taken the initiative to bump into them. , many things will have the opportunity to cut through the mess quickly.”
Don't listen too much to these secrets from the court. Shen Li lowered his head and pretended to be listening attentively but with trepidation.
Who among the Xingxiu Cult killers doesn’t hone his martial arts while also carefully polishing his acting skills?
Even if Shen Li didn't take the ambitious prince in his eyes, he still had to act ecstatically while walking on thin ice. This was the normal behavior of a wanderer meeting a top dignitary.
"listen!"
The prince pointed towards the dark outside.
The sound of swords, spears and halberds striking against the armor, the shouts and curses of life-and-death battles, the loud movement of Qi moving in the body, all of a sudden, there seemed to be countless voices coming one after another.
The servants and the two old men brought by the prince were indeed elite. After fighting for a while, no one entered the small courtyard of the inn.
At this moment, Shen Li was a little nervous. From the burst of qi, he realized that among the enemies who wanted to kill the prince, there was indeed a genuine second-grade commanding realm martial artist, and the prince's opinion of the two old men remained to be seen. After discussion, although they cooperated well with each other, they suffered from the fact that one of them was a Buddhist Qi practitioner and the other was a Confucian third-grade Chaolu realm Qi practitioner. They could protect themselves against a second-grade martial artist. I really wanted to drive that martial artist away. Not enough power.
Since entering Kaixi City, I have seen all the first-level masters, and it seems that the knowledge that I had been standing still in the past has been greatly improved.
Normally, how could the masters in the world be so densely packed together? It seemed like there were as many as dogs in the top four ranks.
"Nervous?" The prince asked funnyly after hearing Shen Li's silence.
The young man said: "Brother, I just feel that the capital city is really extraordinary. I have been in the world before, let alone the fourth rank. Even the masters of the fifth rank are rare."
"Haha... What my dear brother is saying is that all the trivial matters that I heard from the Insect Catcher are all trivial matters. Either you robbed me of my property, or I stole your beauty. After all, it doesn't matter. He is a despicable and greedy person."
Now that the two of them had some time alone, Shen Li quietly arrived at the inn and handed the letter he received to the prince while no one was around.
The prince calmly opened the letter, looked at it for a few times, and returned it to him: "Have you received the benefit?"
Shen Li said that Cao Xu gave him a complete "Four Values of Merits", and the three families merged into one to solve hidden dangers, but he didn't say anything.
"Cao Xu? Hehe, the others may be hypocrites and not really villains, but Cao Xu is a down-to-earth villain. Even hypocrites are too lazy to pretend. It is precisely because of this that all parties allowed him to dodge like a wild monkey. Tengmo, otherwise we will kill you secretly. There is always no shortage of such smart people in Kaixi City."
There was a pause.
"You can just kill the people mentioned in the letter. As for whether they are the people behind the scenes that Cao Xu mentioned, I don't need to worry about it, my dear brother. It can be regarded as a good relationship."
Shen Li didn't talk about King Xun at all, but the prince actually took the initiative to point it out. Thinking about it, what Cao Xu said was more lies than truth.
"Brother, why is Cao Xu looking for me?"
The prince chuckled and sneered: "What can you do? You are here to sow discord with someone who is short-handed. Now that you have a special status, you have been involved in several important figures in our Da Wu. Naturally, some people want to add fuel to the flames or bury chess pieces for the future."
Shen Li had a clear conscience. The prince kept saying that he was one of his own, but his real intention was to use him in the same way? The world is as dark as crows. It's best for you not to say anything to anyone.
The fighting in the night outside gradually became quieter.
The young man suddenly stepped out of the door, and Zhang Qiu, who came a step late to save Zhang Run, entered the small courtyard covered in blood.
"Brother Xian, if you are feeling ill, just hold this man back. When the two masters come back, we will kill him."
This time, it was Shen Li who turned around and grinned: "Brother, I'm almost done with my training. It's time to stretch out my muscles and bones to avoid getting rusty."
"Haha... In that case, let's sit back and watch my wise brother kill the enemy."
While the two were laughing and chatting, Zhang Qiu poured out all his strength and rushed over regardless of life or death.
Zhang Qiu's realm is only that of a fifth-level martial artist. Shen Li is like a mountain lying across the ground. When he gets close, he delivers an ordinary and calm punch.
He punched Zhang Qiu's forehead with his fist.
Immediately, his facial features began to bleed.
The prince didn't think it was bloody and clapped his hands.
Zhang Qiu's lips moved, and Shen Li immediately punched him without giving him a chance to speak.
Looking at Zhang Qiu, who fell to the ground with no hope of life, he asked: "Do the enemies have no one to use? Send this piece of trash."
The prince shook his head. This young man did not understand the fierce fighting in the temple today. "The masters in Kaixi City are now under the supervision of the Insect Catching Division. They dare not act rashly. However, the soldiers sent by Zhang Run privately can investigate to the end."
Later.
The remaining old man stumbled back deeply wounded.
