Chapter 369 Ethics

The stone ran wildly across the road.

Although there was no one chasing behind him, even though he knocked down many stalls and forced many carriages to stop along the way, the stones still did not stop.

As an assassin, his instinct told him that he was being targeted like a prey.

"Damn it." Shitou gritted his teeth, knowing that he had gone astray.

He turned into the alley next to him, and when he came out again, his appearance had changed drastically. He was wearing Yiliba's clothes, with a towel on his shoulders. His shoulders and arms were bronzed by the sun for a long time, and his face was even darker.

It's black but its teeth are white. From the looks of it, it looks like a coolie carrying bags on the pier.

Shitou walked toward the Qinhuai River with a dull and sluggish look as if he had endured the torment of life.

"Whoosh!"

When Fang Qianhu landed, he looked around and saw the person who had just escaped, so he chose a direction to chase after him.

"Pooh!"

Shitou, who was standing next to him, spat, "Why do I think I'm an expert? It scared me."

After Fang Qianhu's back disappeared, he went in the opposite direction. By the way, he sat down at a roadside stall and ordered a bowl of rotten meat noodles. This rotten meat noodles is the favorite of the Liba people.

The Faceless Killer Organization is all about disguising themselves as anyone, and the most important thing about this disguise is their living habits, so Shi Shi disguises himself as Liba and eats noodles, which is also a kind of spiritual practice.

However, let me tell you, this side is really good.

Shitou, like the others, devoured the food. After finishing his meal, he stood up and said, "Shopkeeper, check out."

"Don't worry, bring me a bowl." Lu Bai held his shoulder and sat down, greeting the shopkeeper at the same time.

Shi Shi's body trembled, and he cautiously turned his head to look at the person. He saw that the person was young, well-dressed, and his face was neither sad nor happy. He couldn't guess whether he had been discovered or it was a coincidence. This person knew him and was pretending to be someone else.

A successful person?

"Here, this young master, we, we don't know each other, I'm still busy, I first--" Shitou hesitated for a moment, then said naively.

Lu Bai waved his hand, "Don't worry, we will get to know each other later."

Now it was time to eat. Lu Bai was hungry. He quickly took the rotten meat noodles handed over by the store, picked them up and smelled them. He thought they were really good. Although there was no meat in the rotten meat noodles, the meat was very rotten.

In the noodles, the broth is fully combined with the noodles, making the noodles taste smooth and fragrant.

Lu Bai finished it quickly and asked the store owner to serve another bowl.

While Lu Bai was eating ramen, Shitou stood up and tried to walk out. Lu Bai didn't even raise his head, "You can try walking. I can catch you wherever you go."

The stone was stunned.

He looked back at Lu Bai, "You——"

Lu Bai smiled and said, "Lu Bai, the envoy of Nanzhen."

Plop!

Shitou sat blankly on the stool and looked at Lu Bai with dumbfounded eyes, "No, that's not it. A practitioner from the Dongxuan Realm would take action against one of my servants. Sir, this is overkill."

Lu Bai made a choice, "Solving crimes is my personal hobby."

He swallowed a big mouthful and felt that this rotten meat noodle was like a coolie. It only tastes good if you take a big mouthful. If you chew it slowly and savor it carefully, this noodle will not be so delicious.

Shitou thought about it, "No, you are from Nanzhen Fusi. No matter what happens to my case, it won't be your turn."

Lu Bai wiped his mouth, stood up and gestured to Shitou to pay the bill, "What if a Jin Yiwei dies in this case?"

Shitou was startled.

It was only after the shopkeeper got the change back and put it in his hand that he realized, "One, a guard in uniform is dead, dead?"

He scratched his head and said, "We haven't killed any Jin Yiwei recently."

Lu Bai looked surprised, "So, have you actually killed Jin Yiwei before?"

Shitou waved his hands hurriedly, "I don't have one."

Lu Bai led him out to the Jinyiwei, "You also know the rules of the Jinyiwei. If you confess, you will be lenient, and if you resist, you will be strict. If I ask you anything, it's best to be honest, otherwise you will suffer physical pain-"

Lu Bai said, looking at the stone up and down, "Although the faceless magic skill you practice is quite powerful, you probably won't be able to withstand my torture."

Shitou trembled again, "You, you know the faceless magic?"

"I know, I was assassinated by your people before." Lu Bai thought for a while, "What is my name? Oh, by the way, my name is Wuming."

Wuming was the brother of the female ghost involved in the indiscriminate murder case in Yongle City. Later, when Lu Bai returned to Yancheng, he assassinated Lu Bai in the bamboo forest. Lu Bai also knew from Wuming's mouth that the killer organization was Wu Mian, so he just saw Shitou Da.

After his appearance changed, he immediately recognized him as the faceless man.

"Nameless!" Shitou was speechless.

Although Wuming's cultivation is not as good as his, he is ruthless in assassination, has completed many assassination missions, and has practiced quickly, and is considered to be the genius of their faceless killer organization. Unfortunately, no news has been heard in recent years. It turned out that he was killed by Lu Bai

Killed.

Shitou sighed softly. It would be wrong for Wuming to offend anyone, but he chose to offend this man. In front of this man, what ordinary people call a genius is about the same as a mediocre person.

Just as Shitou was muttering in his heart, Lu Bai saw Fang Qianhu walking towards him, sweating profusely and looking ashamed, "Sir, I, I - I lost track of you."

Lu Bai reminded him, "You didn't lose the chase, you didn't catch up at all."

He didn't understand that in border towns like Yancheng, many Jin Yiwei wanted to learn advanced martial arts, but they either didn't have them or were incomplete.

"I have also been to the Ming Zhengsi Library in the capital. Although there is no Qing Gong that is better than mine, there are still a few people who can't fall to death after jumping from the building. Not to mention that you are still a Qianhu, even if you haven't stepped on it,

You have just stepped into the practice, but you don’t know how to do Qinggong. I don’t know why I thought you were demon hunters.” Lu Bai complained, bragging about his glorious deeds in the past, “You Jinyi Guards in the capital are just slacking off.

I'm used to it. I think back then, when I was still in the third or second level, about two or three years ago, I was already able to cook assassins with great ease."

Fang Qianhu was speechless.

I really think everyone is a monster.

Qinggong is difficult to practice.

It cannot be practiced in one or two days.

Furthermore, it is said that after entering the realm of cultivation, after mastering the magic, you will be able to practice soaring in the sky, so many people are too lazy to work on Qinggong.

He smiled coquettishly and said, "I guess only a genius like you, sir, can work hard on Qinggong."

Lu Bai shook his head, "Not necessarily. There are also some sneaky people who like to work hard on Qinggong."

He motioned to the stones beside him.

Only then did Fang Qianhu find the stone, "This is -"

He didn't know why, but he felt that he looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

"The person we want to arrest." Lu Bai said.

Fang Qianhu was startled, looked up and down and then asked suspiciously: "The person we want to arrest? Isn't it like this?"

"It's just a disguise." Lu Bai pushed the stone and asked him to admit, "Tell him who you are."

Shitou was helpless, "If you want to buy an official position, you can come to me."

"This, this -" Fang Qianhu was filled with admiration for Lu Bai, "How did you catch him?"

"I caught him just sitting down to eat a bowl of noodles." Lu Bai told him not to admire him in a hurry, and it would not be too late to admire him later. After that, he threw the five hundred taels of silver notes to Fang Qianhu, "Your five hundred

Hide the two pieces of silver and let us spend it slowly later. Okay, now you can admire me."

Fang Qianhu was speechless. He always felt that the five hundred taels of silver would not last long with him.

They continued walking towards Jinyiwei.

Lu Bai learned a lesson and decided to vigorously promote Qing Gong in Mingzhengsi. "In the future, anyone who can't jump down from a three-story building without breaking his legs will not be able to be a Jin Yiwei. We Jin Yiwei are there to eliminate violence and bring peace to the people. We are not here for you to practice.

One by one all day long, the thieves can run faster than you, so why bother catching them?"

After Shitou hesitated for a long time, he finally couldn't help it anymore, "Mr. Lu, although you are at a very high level and even though you caught me, I still have to say that I am a killer. I am neither stealing nor stealing.

I’m not a thief. Can you please stop belittling me? I’m a killer and a technical person.”

"There is no distinction between high and low professions. You can't be superior to others." Lu Bai corrected him seriously.

Fang Qianhu followed behind, feeling that what they said was not understandable to ordinary people.

On the way, Lu Bai continued to question Shi Shi, who was also a bachelor. Dayi Lingran said: "Master Lu, there is no need to ask, even if you beat me to death, I can't reveal Master Shi behind me. As a technical

Talent, my professional ethics do not allow me to reveal my employer."

Fang Qianhu quickly picked up his shocked jaw. He had never seen such a shameless person.

"I understand your professional ethics." Lu Bai said seriously, "Since you don't tell me, I won't ask. But what I'm curious about is, aren't you killers all murderers? Why are you helping the Shi family run errands and selling officials?

Something about?"

"Hey, how do you know that the person behind me is from the Shi family?" Shitou said with admiration, "Lu Zhenfu is worthy of the name of a genius. He is just smart. From my name, he actually figured out that the person behind me is from the Shi family.

"

He also raised his fist seriously.

Lu Bai waved his hand modestly, "That's great, that's great. I just spent the time that others eat and sleep on solving cases."

"What about your practice?" Shitou asked.

"Practice, you just improved when you solved the case." Lu Bai had an expression that was not worth mentioning.

Shitou handed over his hand again, "Master Lu is indeed a genius among geniuses."

Lu Bai was humble again, "You little brother is so nice to talk to. By the way, what is your name?"

"Stone." Stone replied.

Fang Qianhu is behind them. Now they don't know what year it is. They agreed to deduce the Shi family behind them from their names.

He wanted these two people to draft their lies.

Returning to the topic, Shitou said: "This is a long-term job for me. The Shi family pays for it every year - one package lasts for ten years. During these ten years, I am at the mercy of the Shi family, ranging from assassinations to running errands and selling jobs.

Or do something shameful—"

"For example?" Lu Bai was curious.

Shitou looked at Lu Bai and said in a very professional manner: "For example, if a certain adult wants to sleep with someone's wife, I will be responsible for picking him up, quietly getting him out, and then quietly getting him in."

.”

Lu Bai glanced at him and felt that what he said seemed like he was doing something improper.

Shitou hurriedly waved his hand, "Don't worry, sir, I still have professional ethics."

Fang Qianhu couldn't help but mutter, "Your professional ethics are just like farts. Once you let it go, it's fine. If you let it go, it won't end."

Shitou glanced at him and suggested to Lu Bai, "If you have such a need, I can provide you with this service for free."

After saying that, he looked at Fang Qianhu again.

Fang Qianhu couldn't help but feel a chill down his back. Thinking about the dozen or so concubines at home, he always felt that a hat was about to fall on his head.

Fortunately, Lu Bai refused.

"I'm still young, don't fucking teach me bad things." Lu Bai opened his fan and fanned himself gracefully, "Speaking of which, your killer organization is so considerate that you even have year-round services."

He was thinking that it would be great if the killer organization in residence was so considerate.

"Hey, what's this? We have a lot of discounted services. We have targeted assassination targets, ranging from father-killing enemies and lovers to assassinating people who are prettier than you, whose wives are prettier than you, etc. We all specialize in these.

Killers in the field will relieve your worries. In addition, we also have categories for killers, including child killers, elderly killers, ugly male killers, and handsome female killers. There is always a differentiated killer that can satisfy your inner needs for a killer. At the same time, we

There are also killers with different assassination methods. Some are good at assassination, some are good at recklessness, some are good at killing in bed, some are good at killing in water, and some are good at killing in the air——"

Shitou blinked, "Isn't it very considerate to let the employer choose the method of killing?"

Lu Bai nodded, "It's indeed very considerate."

"This is actually nothing. We are also launching a killer training project. Our old customers can choose a favorite killer who is in our Faceless Killer organization, train them from scratch, and enjoy their training.

"The process." Shitou asked Lu Bai enthusiastically, "Master Lu, are you interested in training one?"

He did not forget to seduce Lu Bai, "When a killer trained by myself comes out to kill people, especially when he follows your orders, he will feel a great sense of achievement."

Lu Bai doesn't want to cultivate him now, but only admires him.

Damn it, a killer organization is so playful now?

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Lu Bai asked him not to talk about the killer organization, "Continue to talk about the case, I just heard what the woman said, do you occasionally get rid of officials who stand in the way?"

Shitou waved his hands hurriedly, "We have professional ethics. Although we occasionally obey orders to kill some people with no background, that is outside of the options of dismissal from office, and we will never betray what the owner of the valley told you."

Lu Bai understood.

The Shi family sells officials, but official positions are limited and people are unlimited. Sometimes, in addition to conventional methods such as dismissal from office, if someone offers more money, they will also use some unconventional methods.

"Okay, let me ask you, when you took over as Xishui Pass Supervisor, did you kill him?" Lu Bai asked.

Shitou shook his head, "I don't dare to talk nonsense. I only care about selling my official position now. As for how this official position became vacant, it is not my responsibility now."

Lu Bai nodded, indicating that he understood,
