Shen Li looked coldly at the dumbfounded Jiang Zhuo.
Jiang Zhuo was really frightened. He had just made up his mind to draw his sword and take action. The next moment, the young man's fist stopped in front of his eyebrows, and the sword that was about to be unsheathed was pushed back.
To be able to do all this in an instant without making him react at all, only a fourth-level master can do it.
The young man who put down his fists, took three steps at a time and then returned to the bed with his eyes closed and fell asleep was a master of the fourth rank! Jiang Zhuo's cold sweat dropped to the ground, and his legs couldn't help but feel weak.
The Xingxiu Sect master invited by Chen Qifeng is a fourth-level master!
How much does it cost!
Jiang Zhuo's thoughts were changing, and the chaos was like countless pools of water in a cloud mirror.
"Hero...I, my hero..."
Shen Li said lazily: "My lord, I don't remember the faults of others. Please close your eyes for a while. You have to deal with Chen Wanyue tomorrow."
"Yes, yes." Jiang Zhuo was grateful for nothing else. He really felt threatened by death just now, and the cold sweat on his forehead seemed to be pouring down, and he couldn't stop it at all.
After giving up the idea of killing Shen Li, Jiang Zhuo lay down on the table and closed his eyes. He tried his best to stabilize his mind and fell asleep unknowingly.
He didn't know how long he slept until Shen Li patted his shoulder. Jiang Zhuo's eyes were sleepy and he was suddenly startled.
"The time is coming, you and I will go to Chen Qifeng's house."
"yes."
Simply wash up.
The two of them walked out of the guest room one after another. During this period, the waiter at the inn whispered a few words beside Shen Li.
At night, when Shen Li noticed that Jiang Zhuo was asleep, he quietly found the waiter and asked about Zhu Hongni. The waiter replied that Miss Zhu returned to the inn alone last night and saw that her expression was a little uncertain. He looked at Miss Zhu again this morning. After breakfast, he looked anxious.
Shen Li said softly: "Go and tell Miss Zhu now, I will come back later."
"Yes." The waiter was extremely polite, "Sir, the money assigned to you has been prepared. I just need to send Jiang Zhuo to Chen Qifeng, and then he can come back and take the money. It's not that my subordinates won't give it to you now, it's really This is the rule of Xingxiu Sect.”
Just like Shen Li killed the two blood-creeper boys in Woxia Temple, he could only collect the money by taking away the tokens they carried with them. It makes sense now. Only by sending Jiang Zhuo to see Chen Qifeng can the task be completely completed.
"Yes, I understand." The young man nodded.
He turned to Jiang Zhuo and said, "Let's go."
When I was at the helm of the Xingxiu Sect, Brother Qian Cheng took care of me and told me that I didn’t have to follow the rules of the Xingxiu Sect. But it’s no longer the case...
After all, Jiang Zhuo was the leader of the kidnappers. After a night's rest, his mood returned to normal and he asked with a smile: "Hero, do you know that waiter?"
"He is also a member of the Xingxiu Cult. If you want to invite the Xingxiu Cult, you can come to the inn to find him. Entrusting the Xingxiu Cult to take action always requires a lot of money. Remember to prepare more. The more difficult the assignment, the higher the price." Shen Li flexed his muscles and helped Xingxiu Sect advertise.
Jiang Zhuo sighed quietly: "That's it."
There was still a long way to go from Chen Qifeng's residence. Shen Li took advantage of the time and walked around to play. When he arrived in front of Chen's residence, the time was just right.
Knock on the door.
Soon an old man opened the door and looked at the two of them. Before he could speak, the young man facing him said: "Let's find Chen Qifeng."
The butler then took a deep look at Jiang Zhuo and said, "Please come in, two distinguished guests."
The courtyard is elegant, although it is not as big as other houses, but the sparrow has all the internal organs even though it is small.
Chen Qifeng hurried from the study after being informed by the housekeeper.
Standing on the steps, he asked condescendingly: "Are you the kidnapper who kidnapped my daughter?"
Jiang Zhuo had already prepared his words, and he bowed gracefully and replied: "I am Jiang Zhuo."
Chen Qifeng's hands behind his back were clenched into fists, with veins exposed, and he wished he could immediately kill the kidnapper who had made his daughter lovesick.
"Jiang Zhuo...Jiang Zhuo...Okay, okay, please come inside." Chen Qifeng said in a strange tone.
Shen Li stood aside without saying a word. His mission was completed and he could leave Jiang Zhuo to Chen Qifeng.
"My mission has been completed. If there is nothing else, I will leave now." Shen Li said with his fists clasped.
Chen Qifeng quickly shouted: "Young hero, wait a minute."
"Oh? What are you doing for me?"
"I'll give you another hundred taels of silver and ask the young hero to stay in my house for the time being." Chen Qifeng said crisply.
Shen Lixiao asked: "Are you afraid that after I leave, he will immediately flee the Chen Mansion?"
"Exactly, Jiang Zhuo is a thief who is very skilled in martial arts and cunning. Without a young hero in charge, I am afraid that no one in my family will be able to match him." Chen Qifeng said.
Shen Li said: "The Xingxiu Sect's rules require me to charge one hundred taels of silver now."
"It should be so." Chen Qifeng asked the housekeeper to get the silver note and hand it over to Shen Li, "Young hero, please see, this is a hundred taels of silver note, which can be exchanged at Wanshui City Tongda Bank."
After collecting the banknotes, the young man followed Chen Qifeng to the Chen Mansion Hall, where the butler placed tea bowls for the three of them.
Chen Qifeng sighed and asked, "Jiang Zhuo! My daughter is lovesick because of you. You should tell her what to do."
"She is lovesick, what does it have to do with me?" Jiang Zhuo asked.
Chen Qifeng blew his beard and glared angrily, pointed at Jiang Zhuo and yelled: "You thief! If my daughter hadn't been kidnapped, how would she be in this situation now, not eating or drinking all day for you? Tears! You thief, if you don’t give me an explanation now, I will ask the young hero to kill you!"
"Oh, you can kill me." Jiang Zhuo stretched his neck, as if he was not afraid of anything.
The situation was like this. Since Chen Wanyue was lovesick for him, Jiang Zhuo had the upper hand and was able to take advantage of Chen Qifeng's beloved daughter's eagerness to bargain.
Jiang Zhuo had made a small calculation in his heart. He was not married yet. Chen Wanyue's appearance was really good and could be said to be above average. If he and Chen Qifeng agreed on the terms, he would be willing to marry Chen Wanyue in a big sedan chair. From then on, they would be happy. It's better to wash your hands and use the Chen family to do some long-term business than to be a kidnapper who licks blood from his knife edge, right?
Besides, there is no need to worry about Zhao Luqing. The young man has said that he can help him make peace.
He didn't believe it at first, but he felt that the young man just said it, and when he was in the guest room, he subdued him in an instant, so he couldn't help but not believe it. In addition, the power of the Xingxiu Sect spread all over the world, and if the young man revealed his identity, Zhao Luqing should be so domineering no matter how powerful he was. Think about whether you should offend the Xingxiu Cult.
Chen Qifeng was so angry that he was trembling all over. The mature and steady housekeeper came to his side and whispered a few words before taking a few deep breaths to stabilize himself.
What the old housekeeper said was nothing more than that Jiang Zhuo was trying to raise the price, taking advantage of your love for your daughter to get a good price.
Chen Qifeng had already thrown away almost a thousand taels of silver, and there was not much money left at home. He sighed and asked, "Tell me, what do you want?"
Jiang Zhuo stood up, bowed and said: "I haven't married yet, and I originally wanted to find a wife, but unfortunately I came from a bad background, and I became a kidnapper, and no good family will look after me. To be honest, if it hadn't been for the hero to take action, I would have been With my boxing and kicking skills, ordinary martial arts masters can't do anything to me..."
"Do you want to be your son-in-law?" Chen Qifeng asked.
"No, I know how to use a knife and a stick, and I have accumulated a lot of silver in recent days. If you nod, I am willing to change my face, lead my brothers to find a serious business, and live a peaceful life."
Jiang Zhuo could continue to pull and let Chen Qifeng bleed more, but after thinking about it, he decided to give up. If he really married someone else's daughter, wouldn't he be digging a hole for himself if he acted like this now?
Chen Qifeng looked at Shen Li: "Young hero, Jiang Zhuo's kung fu is really good?"
"It's not just good, it can be considered powerful. There are only a few in Wanshui City who are better than him." Shen Li said something fair.
Chen Qifeng lowered his head slightly and weighed it carefully. The housekeeper said in his ear: "Master, you know very well how the young lady looks. Of all the diseases in the world, lovesickness is the most difficult to solve, so why not agree? And Jiang Zhuo is a talented person. If you don't tell anyone, who will Do you know he is the kidnapper leader?"
Chen Qifeng whispered: "Hey, this thief Jiang Zhuo has done many kidnappings. If others recognize him, what should we do?"
"Master, you are wrong. Since Jiang Zhuo has been kidnapped several times, no one has posted a portrait so far. Doesn't it just mean that no one remembers his appearance?"
Chen Qifeng's heart brightened and he immediately felt relieved.
Then he said to Jiang Zhuo: "Well, in that case, you come with me and meet Wanyue... What kind of fate is this!"
Shen Li clasped his fists and smiled: "Congratulations. I wonder if I want to continue to stay in my house?"
Chen Qifeng turned his head and pointed at Jiang Zhuo: "Ask him."
Jiang Zhuo smiled and said: "I'm really bothering the hero because of me. I will definitely invite the hero to drink the best wine in Wanshui City if I have the opportunity in the future!"
"I'm waiting for that day." Shen Li laughed. He was happy to see good things. He raised his hands and said to Chen Qifeng, "I'll take my leave."
The housekeeper escorted Shen Li all the way to the gate.
Before leaving, the young man suddenly turned around and asked, "The so-called master of martial arts we invited last time should be the old gentleman, right?"
The housekeeper was caught off guard and hurriedly laughed and said: "Young hero thinks too highly of the old man. A handful of his bones can be used as firewood. How can He De be able to support himself as a master?"
Shen Li just lied casually. He saw that the old housekeeper's breathing rhythm was smooth and his steps were calm and powerful, like an accomplished martial arts master.
"I'll take my leave, old gentleman, please come back."
"Young hero, walk slowly."
Close the door.
The old housekeeper narrowed his eyes and sneered a few times.
What a cunning young man as a fox, he almost deceived him.
The last time Chen Qifeng invited a master of martial arts, he was not him, but he was indeed a master. When he was young and middle-aged, he traveled around the world and went through ups and downs. When he got old, he retired and retired from the world. He met Chen Qifeng by chance. The two chatted happily. Chen Qifeng saw that his character was honest and steady, so After inviting him into the house, he first became a servant. Later, he gradually gained Chen Qifeng's trust and took the position of butler.
After leaving Chen's Mansion, the young man asked around for the location of General Zhao Luqing's Mansion.
Zhao Luqing is a well-known person in Wanshui City. You can find out just by asking around.
"No rush, let's go have a bowl of braised noodles first."
In Wanshui City, he was thinking about the bowl of braised noodles that was full of color, flavor and flavor that he could never tire of eating.
Walking along the street to the noodle shop, I walked in and shouted, "In a bowl of braised noodles, add more meat."
"Sir, please take a seat."
Xiao Xi shouted sweetly.
The noodle shop is doing very well and the seats are almost full.
Shen Li was sitting on a chair next to the street. When he looked up and saw Xiao Xi, who was busy with her feet not touching the ground, she suddenly narrowed her eyes.
The assassin who walked on the water last night had a very similar figure to Xiao Xi. After feeling her aura for a moment, Shen Li guessed that he was almost the same.
