"If you want to see it, you can go to the Moon God now and tell her the fact first." Gu Xun heard this, showed an evil smile, and gave her an idea.
Yan Lingji couldn't help but glance up at him, "If you expose it now, aren't you worried that the other party will refuse to pay on this grounds?"
"Hey!" Gu Xun smiled coldly, "I do business based on integrity. Luna always wants that copper box. I don't have the wrong goods. If she wants to default on the bill, I will go to Lishan to get Donghuang Taiyi
Twist off the head."
Donghuang Taiyi:......
"..." After Gu Xun said this, Yan Lingji was really a little moved, but after some consideration, she gave up, "Forget it, it's better to let them find out this fact after a lot of trouble. What's more,
Frustration...it's better not to be discovered by them, just guarding an empty box."
"It's up to you." Gu Xun curled his lips and said it didn't matter. He didn't have a good sense of the Yin Yang family, but he was just taking care of Ying Zheng.
"Next, after Guo Kaiyi dies and the money is collected, we can almost leave."
"But, shopkeeper, you didn't kill the two old men who were in charge of guarding the box just now. You left them alive. The Zhao royal family should be able to find out our existence soon. Can we still stay safely in Handan City?"
”
"Oh...I forgot about this incident." When Gu Xun heard Yan Lingji ask about it, Gu Xun remembered that he had survived, but... "It doesn't matter. If Zhao Guo really dares to cause trouble for me, the worst will happen."
Aren't you having fun just by accompanying them to make trouble?"
Gu Xun doesn't care much about this kind of thing. For the sake of peace, he is not willing to kill people casually, especially the important ministers and nobles of various countries. This is tantamount to provoking the ruling class of the entire world, but it doesn't matter if he grabs something or something, he deserves to be punished if his skills are inferior to others.
, will not provoke too violent a reaction.
"That's good." Yan Lingji saw that he didn't have any embarrassment, so she felt relieved and replied happily.

In the residence of General Li Mu, Sima Shang was reporting to Li Mu the whole story of the previous assassination of Guo Kai:
"... Just like that, the two leaders of the Mo family ran away after the assassin. No one could catch up with them. Guo Kai did not suffer any damage, and no civilians were affected. The whole thing was the most affected...
I’m afraid it’s you, General.”
Once this incident comes out, even if it has nothing to do with Li Mu, Guo Kai will definitely have to give priority to covering his head. The origin of the assassin can be investigated slowly, but such a good opportunity cannot be missed.
That is to say, because the positions of Li Mu and Guo Kai were too sensitive at this time, Sima Shang did not even intervene in the matter. They tried to hunt down the assassin together to avoid being blamed again, saying that he deliberately disrupted the arrest and released him.
Walk Assassin.
"If the Mo family catches the assassin, general, you still have some room for excuse."
Although the situation was not very good, neither Sima Shang, who reported the situation, nor Li Mu, who was sitting steadily, showed any embarrassment.
If nothing else happens, they will leave Handan soon, and they will be able to avoid all disturbances. Without the involvement of the parties involved, after a while, King Zhao Qian will naturally give up all the strange thoughts he has now.
"Go back and negotiate with the Mo family. If you can get an assassin, it will always be a good thing."
"You will eventually understand."
Sima Shang accepted the order with a fist in his arms. A soldier suddenly shouted from outside, "General, there is news from the palace."
"Huh?" Li Mu and Sima Shang looked at each other, and then Sima Shang shouted, "Come in and talk."
When the messenger heard the sound, he quickly ran in. He bowed to each of them first, and then said, "General, General Sima, a secret report came from the palace, saying that a thief sneaked into the palace, stole the things in the palace, and beat him.
It hurts someone."
After saying this, Sima Shang was okay and his reaction was just average. If the palace was stolen, it was stolen. Anyway, it was only a loss of some property, but it was not like losing the royal seal.
Li Mu's face changed color slightly, and it disappeared briefly. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he hurriedly asked:
"Did the intelligence tell me where something was stolen in the palace?"
"It is said to be... an abandoned warehouse located in the Old Palace area. There should be no valuables in it. It has not yet been found out what was lost."
Li Mu listened to half of the words, and his heart was filled with awe—it was indeed there!
"I..." Li Mu originally wanted to find some 'informed persons' to find out the real situation in person, but at this juncture, it was not convenient for him to run around, so he had to give up and settle for the next best thing, and ordered Sima Shang, "
Try to figure out the whole process of this matter as much as possible, and find a way to find out the origin of the person who infiltrated."
"The general knows." Although he didn't understand what he meant, Sima Shang still accepted the order without saying a word.
After following Li Mu for so many years, there should be a lot of tacit understanding. If he could tell the secret behind this matter, the other party would definitely tell him. If he couldn't tell, then he wouldn't be too curious.
Go find out.
"There is also the Mo family. They are always well-informed. You might as well inquire about it from there. Well... remember to keep it secret."
Sima Shang nodded, and then left with the soldier who reported the news.
Li Mu was left sitting alone in the room, sighing slightly and muttering vaguely to himself, "Pingyuan Lord... the late king..."
………………
On the other side, after the Six-fingered Black Man rushed back to the Mo family's stronghold, he found that Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang had returned, but the assassins were naturally not caught.
The Six-Fingered Black Man did not blame the two, but just asked about the situation at that time, "You two failed to keep each other... Is this assassin very strong?"
"No." Jing Ke started to explain, "Big brother, that assassin's strength is only average. Both me and the Wuyang brothers are stronger than him, but the other party's hard skills have already penetrated the room, and he just carried our offensive all the way.
Fleeing outside the city, the defenders stationed at the city gate attacked the three of us indiscriminately. He used his hard work to block the attack of arrows. Brother Wuyang and I... had no choice but to be stopped like this."
It seems that Jing Ke is also a little depressed. Although it is difficult to fight hard, if he really wants to run, the two of them will definitely catch each other. As a result, if the Handan garrison interferes, everything will be over...
"The master of external skills who can deal with both of you at the same time...should be a member of the Armored Sect." After listening to Jingke's story, the Six-Fingered Black Man was even more convinced that the assassin was a member of the Armored Sect.
Qin Wuyang raised doubts at this time, "Big Master, I remember that the people in the armored sect are not all strong men with strong backs, muscular bodies, and burly figures. But that assassin is much smaller?"<
/p>
"Oh, the Armored Sect is just the most likely guess, it may not necessarily be them." The Six-Fingered Black Man knew the most, and replied with a more specific guess, "Besides, the Armored Sect is not all burly men..." p>
