The old man surnamed Zhong smiled slightly, cupped his fists and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Xing, disrespectful!"
The middle-aged man didn't care about the old man's hospitality. He first looked around at the layout of the tea room. It had to be said that although this tea room was not big, the various decorations were extremely thoughtful. Even if it was just a standard room used by the salary list organization to entertain employers,
It also makes people feel a sense of importance.
The old man was not in a hurry. The other party had already paid anyway. Since the other party was not in a hurry, he had nothing to worry about. He picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup for the other party.
Mr. Xing picked up the tea cup and took it. The remaining temperature was just right, neither hot nor cold, just right for the mouth.
"Good tea!" he said casually.
“Haha, if Mr.
"When does Mr. Xing want to take action on this entrusted task?" the old man asked in a deep voice.
When Boss Xing saw the other party talking about the commission, he thought for a moment and asked, "How sure are you of success?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile and said, "It seems that this is the first time Mr. Xing has published a commission on my salary list, right?"
Without waiting for the other party to reply, the old man surnamed Zhong continued: "Our salary list organization is the largest intelligence organization in Luoye County today, and it also undertakes private commissions."
He pointed to the tea table in front of him and said with a smile: "This is the third floor of the stronghold. If Mr. Xing were not an employer, it would be difficult for him to come here."
"Oh? Are there any requirements for coming here?" Boss Xing asked curiously.
"Mr. Xing must already know the salary list, and he has naturally heard of the four levels of heaven, earth, xuan, and huang."
Boss Xing nodded silently. Before coming here, he had indeed heard of the name on the salary list, and this Tiandi Xuanhuang also learned about it from the mouth of the waiter in the previous shop.
"Among them, the two levels of Xuanhuang and Xuanhuang are mainly focused on finding objects, investigating, and assisting. There are relatively few high-intensity battles, and naturally the commissions are much cheaper. The warriors who undertake these tasks are also average in strength, and most of them are low-level warriors.
." The old man explained slowly.
"As for this level, most of them are taken over by some relatively powerful teams. From the beginning of the level, most of them are killing and escorting tasks, and they need to fight with other Jianghu warriors. Compared with the Xuanhuang Second List, the commissions are not the same!" said
Here, the old deacon of the salary list paused and looked at the piece of paper in his hand.
Boss Xing frowned and said, "You mean my commission is an earth-level mission?"
The old man looked at the other party solemnly, shook his head and said: "No, from my point of view, Mr. Xing's mission must be at the heaven level!"
"What do you mean?!" The middle-aged man looked a little unkind.
The old man chuckled, poured a cup of tea for the other party, and explained: "As far as I know, the person Mr. Xing wants to kill is not as weak as you say?"
"Oh? The old gentleman knows this person?" Boss Xing asked with a smile.
"Helian Haixin, the genius of the Helian family in Yunxi is unparalleled, even among the young talents of Luo Yun Kingdom! How can it be possible that his strength is only at the peak of the Mang Realm?" the old man surnamed Zhong asked with a smile.
Boss Xing was silent for a few breaths, and then said with a wry smile: "The salary list can be called the first intelligence network in Luoye County, and it is indeed well-deserved! I didn't expect that all the figures in the world of Yunxi County, including the old gentlemen, are all treasures!"
The old man nodded, said nothing, and waited for the other person's next words.
Boss Xing naturally has his own little plan in mind. This is his second visit to Yinren, but the last time was Yinren Village, and this time it has become Yinren Town.
Furthermore, the last time he and his five brothers came here, they were entrusted by someone to attack and kill the warriors in Yinren Village. But this time, he and his father went to Yinren Town incognito to hire people to kill people.
This man is Xing Mu, the eldest brother of the five brothers of the Xing family who previously attacked Liangchengang and killed A Diao, He Hou and others. And the white-haired old man who came downstairs with him is none other than Xing Fuhai, the master of Yunxi Xingwu Hall!
When Xing Mu fled back to Yunxi County in embarrassment, he had completely angered Mr. Xing, who had grown from a small businessman to the head of a clan. However, Xing Haifu was a mature man after all, and his four sons died tragically at Yin Ren. This hatred was indeed
He had to get revenge, but he had to kill him with a blind eye. He didn't want his sons to be so stupid.
After he planned to find out the details of Yinren Village first and make long-term plans, the news that Yinren Village had killed Tiexin came out from there.
However, this news was soon deliberately covered up by some people. Even if Xinghai had a well-established reputation as the Xingjia Escort Agency, he used it to inquire about some information from people in the court. The answer he got was still "
Don’t add extraneous ramifications!”
The status of Xingwutang in Yunxi County has never been high. It has been difficult for a sect with no foundation to be recognized by the martial arts world. It only has a certain say in the public arena. Its real situation is different from that of Shahe who did not seek refuge with Ji Shenfu.
Pretty much the same.
Therefore, Xing Haifu postponed his revenge against Yinren Village. However, the Xingshi Escort Agency and Xingwutang paid more attention to Yinren Village. Soon, half a year later, the news of the establishment of Yinren Town completely dissuaded them.
At least before Xing Haifu entered the realm of chivalrous masters, or before Xing Wutang officially entered the third-rate sect, Xing no longer considered revenge.
However, just when they were planning to develop quietly, instructions from the court arrived.
When Xing learned that someone in the court was targeting Helian Haixin, Xing Haifu's first reaction was that there must be a conspiracy in this action. He also thought about the news half a year ago that someone deliberately annexed Yinren to Tiexin.
Pressing down, it is clear that this move has been planned by the forces behind it for a long time!
And he, or Xingwutang, can only be reduced to a pawn.
So when Helian Haixin, dressed as a scholar, stepped into Tiexin Village, the two of them also stepped into Yinren Town again. Both sides had no choice, and behind the two families stood their respective masters.
…
Xing Mu looked at the old man opposite him, pondered for a moment and whispered: "The money is not enough, you can add more!"
The old man surnamed Zhong shook his head and said: "Fifty thousand taels is enough! It's not a question of money. Why did you kill Helian Haixin, and how can you be sure that he is not in Yunxi County, but in Luoye County?"
"Do you need to know so much to accept the mission?" Xing Mu snorted coldly.
"We are not interested in your grudges with the Helian family, but my duty is to prevent Yinren from wading into muddy waters." The old man said with a smile.
Looking at the difficult old man surnamed Zhong in front of him, Xing Mu frowned slightly. He did not expect that the other party was so cunning. At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the ears of the two of them.
"If you want to know, why don't you talk to me?"
The old man surnamed Zhong was suddenly startled and asked in surprise: "A strong person in the chivalrous realm?"
You must know that at every salary list stronghold, there will be a mountain patrol team stationed there. The fact that a living person can avoid the detection of the mountain patrol team only shows that his cultivation level is much higher than that of the person stationed there.
The old man immediately stood up and said respectfully: "You guys are coming to my salary base, why don't you show up and talk?"
Bang!
The door of the tea room was opened from the outside, and an old man appeared outside. It was Xing Haifu!
The salary deacon naturally recognized the other party. He did not expect that the old man who had been following the middle-aged man was the real person in charge.
"I'm so blind that I didn't realize that you are the one in charge. I'm so ashamed!" said the old man surnamed Zhong, cupping his hands.
Xing Haifu grinned and said, "My son also has his own business, but he made a loss last year and suffered a big loss in Guibao. So as an old man, I will accompany him over this year to have a look."
He slowly walked into the tea room, and Xing Mu naturally stood up and offered his seat to his father. Xing Haifu sat down in front of the tea table, glanced at the tea cup in front of him, and said: "Manager Zhong, old man, I like drinking.
Change the bar!”
The old man opposite was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly and patted the wall next door. In just two breaths, someone appeared at the door. It was a guard in iron clothes.
"Mr. Zhong." The man at the door whispered, but his eyes couldn't help but focus on Xing Haifu and Xing Mu.
As a warrior's combat intuition, he could feel the powerful threat of Xingmu, and he was sure that it was impossible for warriors below the chivalrous realm to achieve that feeling of hair standing on end.
"Change the wine!" the old man surnamed Zhong nodded.
"You need to drink wine to clear your mind!" Xing Haifu added aloud.
The old man surnamed Zhong nodded, and the guard in iron clothes quickly went down to prepare.
Seeing this extremely powerful old man drinking down the unfinished cup of tea like a merchant and hawker, even Xing Mu behind him felt a little unsightly on his face.
Xing Haifu glanced at the old man named Zhong and said with a smile: "You won't drink it anyway, what a waste?"
"I haven't asked for advice yet, Your Excellency..."
Xing Haifu put down the cup and grinned: "Who I am is not important. To elaborate, I am just a small trader."
Mr. Xing was indeed born as a peddler. It was only by chance that he got a fragment of magic power, which changed the trajectory of his life. However, in the eyes of the old man surnamed Zhong, he possessed the shrewdness and greed of a small peddler.
Nothing has changed.
After hearing the other party's reply, the deacon who had read countless people's salary rolls knew clearly that the other party was talking nonsense, but he felt that it was extremely appropriate.
When Mr. Xing saw the Qingxin wine being served, he naturally drank it down without ceremony, then smacked his lips and said, "You old man, you have these requirements for accepting a mission. Since you said your duty is not to let Yinren
To get through this muddy water, how about we make a deal?"
The old man surnamed Zhong frowned subconsciously. He really didn't want to make a deal with this old man who looked like a businessman, because he knew that he was definitely no match for the other party when it came to taking advantage.
However, as a deacon in the payroll organization, Yinren's interests are involved, so naturally he has to listen to the other party's suggestions.
"Young man, would you like to hear the details?" the old man surnamed Zhong replied slowly.
Xing Haifu picked up another bowl of wine. Since there were two guests in the tearoom at this time, he and Xing Mu, the attendant served two bowls directly. The bowl that Mr. Xing drank just now was his own, and this bowl was naturally his.
Boss Xing's.
"We are also entrusted by others to come to Luoye County to handle business. The reason why we are so sure that Helian Haixin will be in Luoye County is because the person who asked us to handle the business said so." Mr. Xing said jokingly.
The old man surnamed Zhong frowned and did not interrupt him.
"As for the transaction I'm talking about, it's very simple. You also said it just now, who is Helian Haixin? It doesn't cost me much. I have to say that even though I value Yinren Town so much, I still underestimate you. And I can still
Let me tell you..."
Having said this, he paused, drank the second bowl of Qingxin wine in one gulp, and then continued: "Helian Haixin came to Luoye County this time just for you!"
…
While Xing Haifu and Xing Mu were discussing with the old man named Zhong at the salary list base, Yi Xifeng had quietly returned to the deciduous forest and was waiting on the sword path.
Soon a beautiful figure appeared at the end of the path, it was Li Xintian wearing a white cloak.
Since the two entered the Guard Iron Clothes more than half a year ago, the two of them have had fewer opportunities to practice together. However, the tacit understanding between them has not diminished at all. On the contrary, there are more exchanges that do not require too many words.
This kind of tacit understanding makes both of them enjoy it. They can't tell what kind of feelings they have for each other, but these are obviously not important. Rather than worrying about it, it is better to cherish the time they spend together.
.
In the past six months, the two of them have changed a lot. While Yi Xifeng was strengthening her physical training, Li Xintian did not give up her training. It has to be said that her martial arts qualifications are indeed terrifying, and it is not only the thick soil air control technique that is against her.
The girl's own improvement is more due to her strict requirements on herself.
At only nine years old, he has already reached the peak of his power, which is already very rare.
Although Li Xintian cannot spend as much time discussing martial arts with Yi Xifeng as before, they both have their own persistence.
For example, every three days, Yi Xifeng would take a noon to have a meal with Li Xintian. Sometimes he would go to the restaurant he ordered, and sometimes Yi Xifeng would cook some delicacies from his previous life.
It has to be said that Li Xintian is very un particular about food requirements. Before meeting Yi Xifeng, filling his stomach was the first priority.
So even if Yi Xifeng cooks some dark dishes on his own, Li Xintian can accept them all and make them delicious.
And Li Xintian would come to this trail once every three days. She would stand at the other end of the trail from a distance and watch Yi Xifeng comprehend the swordsmanship on this kendo trail.
And she would stay with him all afternoon, just looking at him without doing anything. Occasionally, she would use the inner strength of the thick soil to detect traces of wild beasts around her, and drive them away in advance to avoid disturbing the fair boy.
Today happened to be the day when Li Xintian came to see him.
When Yi Xifeng saw the pretty figure in a white cloak, a smile appeared on his lips, he jumped up and down across the path and came to the girl's side.
After that martial arts performance, Li Xintian rarely wore a mask except when going on missions, and she no longer smeared black ink stains on her face and limbs. Because Yi Xifeng told her that she is the best when she does not make any modifications.
most beautiful.
Li Xintian has fair skin. She has been hidden under the cloak mask for these years, which makes her skin as white as jade and faintly translucent. In the past half year or so, as the girl's figure expanded, it still caused a stir in the entire Yinren Town.
A lot of attention was paid to him, and many young people who had met him couldn't help but inquire about the identity of this "ruyu" girl.
This invisibly attracted many competitors to Yi Xifeng. Many people even vaguely regard Yi Xifeng as their number one love rival.
Fortunately, most of the people who fall in love with Li Xintian are teenagers in their mid-14th and 15th years. After all, their peers are still young and have not yet reached the period of intense hormonal outbreaks.
"Um?"
Li Xintian's beautiful eyes widened, like autumn water. Apparently she was also curious about why Yi Xifeng came out of the kendo path out of character today.
