"All fools know that this is a game, but since it is a game, there are countless possibilities. I want to make a bet. Do you dare to play?"
The Taoist is experienced in this way, but he has never been provoked by others, "In Qi State, in Jianye, we will never confront the sect's power head-on. This is a way to death. You have found the wrong person.
In addition, as an apology for rejection, we will not disclose your purpose of visit. If there is business in the future, we look forward to your patronage again."
Hou Zi was not disappointed. He stood up and put ten high-grade spiritual stones on the table as a basis for consultation. This was a kind of test. He was testing the Taoist, and the Taoist was testing him to see if they were worthy of cooperation. people.
Those who work in this field only believe in their own feelings. They cannot go against the sect, but the benefits are not enough to impress them. They just spoke once and gave ten high-grade spiritual stones without any actual content. They just said, I'm not short of money.
Just as he was about to step out of the door, the Taoist's voice came from behind, "It's not like there are no other ways to think of..."
Hou Zi turned around and tilted his head as if listening.
The Taoist sighed, "Ye was built as the capital of the Qi State, the place where the Qi sect was established, the ancestors of the infant transformation were over ten, and the golden elixir was repaired hundreds of times. Any underground force that wants to challenge them will be like hitting a stone with an egg.
If you were just a casual cultivator, I would agree to it and then take advantage of it. Anyway, if you continue to do it, you will die...
But since you are from Shanmen, I cannot treat you like a wanderer. I have two suggestions. Fellow Taoist, would you like to listen to them?"
Hou Tzu raised his eyebrows and said, "Come and listen."
The Taoist thought for a while, "One suggestion is that we only provide news support, including news about Taoist Xu in Taoist Prison, and also the latest developments of You Chaoen, but we do not guarantee the accuracy, we just provide an idea. After all, you two In family battles, plans may change at any time, I hope you can understand.
The price of this service is not high, just one hundred high-grade spiritual stones. This is a friendship price, and we hope for further cooperation in the future."
Hou Zi nodded, "Continue."
The Taoist pondered for a moment, obviously also considering whether it was worth doing here. In the end, his greed for profit made him take this step.
"Another suggestion is that although we cannot send people to help you complete the assassination mission, we can introduce you to two dead soldiers from outside the country, but the price is a bit expensive. After all, they are paid for their lives."
Hou Zi nodded, "I want both services."
The Taoist said meaningfully: "Don't come to this place. We will notify you of the location of the transaction separately. As a sign of sincerity, we will send you an inside message later."
Hou Zi walked out of Languifang. Although he knew that these people probably would not follow him, he was still cautious.
This is his strategy, to muddy the water.
Since he doesn't want to take root here for a long time, there is no need to worry about anything. Only when the water is muddy can he fish. This is much better than fighting alone.
The prerequisite for all this is that as a game, he may not be able to defeat these landlords in a battle of wits and courage, so he can only take the wrong approach.
The requirement of the Sikong Mansion is that he complete the assassination independently, but Hou Zi is not an obedient boy. To the Sikong Mansion, losing him is nothing. After all, he is just a newcomer who knows nothing, but to himself After all, life only happens once.
He was sure that this was a trap. Even the Jianye underground cultivation world thought it was a trap, so it was probably a trap.
What he had some doubts about was, would he be the prey?
He doesn't think so.
In Quanzhen of Yanmen and in Sikong Mansion, he was nothing, and his reputation on the sea could not be spread to Qi, which was thousands of miles away; relatively speaking, Jianye's Yanmen secret ultimatum system was more valuable than him Much more.
There is still too little information and a lack of basis for judgment.
On the fourth day, the underground force sent him the first piece of information during a meeting with him. For this, he paid a price of one hundred high-grade spiritual stones. He now has no shortage of spiritual stones. As the boss of the sea for so many years, He has a lot of money, and the Sikong Mansion will pay all the expenses of this operation.
He doesn't consider the issue of cost, which is nothing compared to his life.
The information was about Xu Shanren, and the content was unexpected. According to the information, Xu Shanren was not in a prison at all, but had died in battle when he was captured after being exposed.
If this information is true, it is obvious that the Liuerdian law enforcement priest deliberately spread the news to lure Yanmen to come to the rescue, and then two Sikong Mansion missed it, and one died and the other was injured.
Then, they used You Chaoen as bait to continue fishing?
This mission is becoming more and more interesting, and it is full of mystery.
Now that he doesn't have his own eyes and ears, he can only place his hopes on the reliability of the undercover chess piece, and now he also has the newly found underground forces.
The embarrassing thing is that the identity of the chess piece means that he may not have enough accurate information, and the attitude of the underground forces is also ambiguous.
Should he trust the professional ethics of these people?
This is a very difficult task. The difficulty of the task lies in the extreme limitations of the information he can obtain. Because he cannot appear in public and has no direct contact with the Qimen monks, all his judgments can only be based on guesswork?
This feeling was too frustrating, but he was unable to change it.
On the fifth day, Jianye's underground forces directed him to a remote courtyard in the suburbs, where he met two so-called dead men.
One was in the natural realm, and the other was in the spiritual realm. They were both very young, and even if it was their first meeting, he could feel the heavy twilight aura in them.
When this kind of twilight energy appears in monks, it is certain that their path has come to an end and they can no longer improve.
With his rich experience, he can probably guess the story of what happened to them. The monks in the natural realm suffered irreversible internal injuries that affected Zifu; the monks in the spiritual realm suffered because they were too old and their bodies were too big. Functions started to go downhill.
To be honest, he was not satisfied with these two so-called helpers, but in this unfamiliar place, it was difficult to find two people who dared to go against Taoist Qi Men.
Something is better than nothing.
Sighing, "Do you know who you are being asked to deal with?"
The natural monk calls himself Lu. I don’t know whether he is a casual cultivator or a small sect monk. There are always countless helplessness in this world of cultivation.
"You know, for us, it doesn't matter who the opponent is. It's just a deal of exchanging lives for spiritual stones. You only need to tell us the time, place, and person. We will help you make a move. If you become the best, you will be ruined if you don't succeed. One life."
Hou Zi still felt that he should be more clear, "I must say bluntly that my information may not be accurate. The opponent is from Qimen Liuerdian. This is probably a trap.
At that time, we will not be able to trust anyone but ourselves."
