Several guys with bruised noses and swollen faces looked at the woman in white clothes in front of them with horror on their faces.
A man stepped back and said tremblingly: "You... who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am."
The woman took a step forward and said, "The important thing is that if you make decisions that you shouldn't make, you will die."
She said it lightly.
It was as if killing someone was just a trivial matter to her.
Guys, you look at me and I look at you.
"Do you really think we are afraid of you?"
The leader shouted angrily: "Brothers, fight with this little bitch!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the knife in his hand and rushed towards the woman first.
Little did they know that his three-legged cat skills were no different from those of a clown in the eyes of that woman.
When he rushed over and before he could swing his knife, the woman raised her leg and kicked him to the ground.
Immediately, the woman's movements did not stop, she stepped forward, raised her leg and broke the man's neck with one kick.
The woman's face was covered with gauze, and her expression and appearance could not be clearly seen.
But her sharp killing methods are really frightening.
The remaining people, you look at me, I look at you, they all gritted their teeth and rushed towards the woman.
At this moment, these men seemed to have a sense of tragedy.
But even so, they were all desperate.
He was still no match for the woman, but there were only four more corpses on the ground.
The woman shook off the blood on her sword, then sheathed it.
As if nothing happened, he left the woods where several corpses were lying.
It was as if all this had nothing to do with her.
…
Yangzhou City, Zhechong Mansion.
Just when Li Chengqian and Sun Xiunian were talking and laughing.
Changsun Chong suddenly ran in from outside: "Your Highness..."
See the anxious look on his face.< br>
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows: "Why are you so alarmed?"
Hearing this, Changsun Chong glanced at Sun Xiunian but said nothing.
Sun Xiunian understood the situation and stood up directly and said: "Your Highness, I just remembered that I still have something to do at home, so I will take a step ahead and come back to visit you another day."
"good."
Li Chengqian didn't try to persuade him to stay, he stood up and said, "I'll see you off."
Send Sun Xiunian to the door.
Li Chengqian turned back and looked at Changsun Chong: "What's going on? Can we tell you now?"
"Another death."
Changsun Chong pursed his lips and said, "This time it was in the woods west of the city. Five people died."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian also frowned: "You also accepted An Hua?"
"It looks like it should be."
Changsun Chong said: "I have seen all those corpses. Just like before, the people who did it were clean and neat, and they were all killed in one move."
"this……"
Li Chengqian's eyebrows were furrowed and he didn't say anything for a long time.
The hidden flower is nothing more than a bounty on one's head in the world.
Because Li Chengqian offended those Jiangnan aristocratic families, one hundred thousand dollars has been marked on his head.
In other words, whoever can kill Li Chengqian can get one hundred thousand money immediately.
It is said that there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. One hundred thousand dollars have been spilled, who will care who you are.
And Li Chengqian had already been prepared for this. Zhe Chong Mansion had already set up a dragnet, waiting for the killer who was not afraid of death to come.
However, several days in a row have passed, and not a single killer has come to the door of his house.
On the contrary, there were many more fatal cases in Yangzhou City.
These people who died all have one thing in common, that is, they took over Li Chengqian's assassination mission.
It can be seen that the person who did this was secretly protecting Li Chengqian.
but protect him
Even he himself doesn't know who it is.
Could it be that Li Shimin sent someone here?
The more he thought about it, the more Li Chengqian thought it was possible.
After all, Li Shimin didn't tell him many things he did.
For example, he had never known the existence of the few experts placed around Li Chengqian before.
It was later that he discovered it himself.
No one else said anything, they just said that Zhou Chu would hug his lap and cry bitterly no matter what happened.
This guy is a typical guy who pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger.
If he hadn't seen that guy lifting a bag of rice weighing one hundred kilograms with one hand later, he might have thought that guy was just an ordinary little eunuch.
But anyway.
It's a good thing that someone is protecting him now.
At least he can concentrate on what he should do.
"If it is willing to show up, I will personally thank it. But if it is unwilling, just leave it alone for now."
Li Chengqian glanced at Changsun Chong and asked: "How are the preparations for the banker's affairs?"
"According to His Highness's instructions, the decoration of the store has basically been completed, and the money tickets brought from Mobei are also ready."
Changsun Chong said meticulously: "Now we just need to wait for His Highness's order before the bank can officially start operations."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian nodded with satisfaction and said: "The work efficiency is pretty good. We will officially open for business tomorrow."
"good."
"I'll go get ready right now."
After saying that, Changsun Chongdiai turned around and walked away.
Li Chengqian was pacing around the house.
But just as he was about to enter the main room, the system beep suddenly rang.
{Received admiration value +99 from Yuan Yuan...}
Yuan Yuan...
Li Chengqian stopped and looked confused.
This is the number of times he has received admiration points from Yuan Yuan.
But this Once, his mentality obviously changed.
Could it be possible that she was the one protecting him secretly?
As soon as the idea came to his mind, he rejected it.
Li Chengqian shook his head, smiled bitterly, and looked up at the sky.
"How could it be her?"
"She should still be running for a living, right..."
He seemed to be talking to himself: "Isn't it better to stay by my side than to run around outside?"
After saying that, he took a straight step and walked into the main room.
But not long after he entered the main house.
A little head poked out from behind the rockery.
Under the white gauze, she pursed her lips tightly, then slowly retreated into the shadows, disappearing in an instant.
After she walked out of Zhe Chong Mansion.
She came to a small hut where she lived.
Sitting on a dilapidated couch.
She took off the jade pendant from her waist that could be looked at all day long.
She gently stroked the jade pendant, as if stroking her lover's face.
After a long time, she murmured to herself: "I don't want to run around, I also want to stay by your side."
"It's just that my hands are already stained with blood, so I don't deserve to stay by your side..."
She is the Yuan Yuan mentioned by Li Chengqian.
She is the guy who ran around with a kitten on the street a few years ago.
She is the silly girl who asked to pay back the money at any cost outside Prince Qin's mansion a few years ago.
She is the poor little girl who held her mother's body and sold her body to bury her a few years ago.
She vaguely remembers that Li Chengqian told her to follow him.
Make sure she has enough food and chicken drumsticks to eat every day.
At that time, she didn't accept it.
Now, she won't accept it even more.
It's not because she doesn't want to accept Li Chengqian's charity.
Just because she felt that her status was humble and she was not worthy of standing with him...
