Chapter 1961 We Don’t Do Good Deeds, nor Do We Make Friends
"King Qin Guang, you are so brave." King Bian Cheng's tone contained no praise or blame: "You just left the tiger's mouth and went to the wolf's den again!"
King Qin Guang once again emphasized: "It's not me, it's us."
King Bian Cheng said: "Wei is not a kind place."
"Have we ever been good people?" King Qin Guang smiled: "In the past, Zhang Linchuan was able to stir up trouble in the Wei Kingdom. What can't we do if you and I join forces?"
King Bian Cheng had been to Wei State when he was chasing Zhang Linchuan.
It should be said that he has a certain understanding of Wei's garrison strength.
But at that time, they entered Wei by land from the south.
This time, they had to enter Wei via the northern waterway.
Hearing this, he felt helpless: "The place where Zhang Linchuan caused trouble was Wansang Town, Moucheng, Xinlan County. Anyi City, which you are going to trouble, is the capital of the Wei Dynasty!"
So much time has passed, and Zhang Linchuan has died so completely. King Bian Cheng still remembered the place where he traveled around the world and stirred up troubles so clearly, which shows the depth of hatred he felt at that time.
King Qin Guang said: "But he massacred the town. We only killed one person. It may not cause any reaction."
After all, assassination is not a head-on confrontation. It's not in a ring, where both sides are trying their best to fight to the death.
The trick is to get away with one hit, but the emphasis is on leaving no trace.
Even though the state of Wei is a sacred cow, how can I overwhelm the country if I steal even a tiny bit of it and run away?
"Who are you going to kill?" King Bian Cheng asked.
"Uncle Zhang Shoulian of Wei State."
"...The portion is so big?"
"If he is not such a powerful person, there is no need for you, King Bian Cheng, to take action."
King Bian Cheng snorted coldly.
King Qin Guang continued to add: "Zhang Shoulian is fond of human breasts and often plunders women. He has ruined his family and is the leader of the four evils in Anyi. If he dies under Bo Xinglang, he will be considered a well-deserved death."
"No, has this been arranged for me?" King Bian Cheng said leisurely, "I haven't agreed to go on a mission yet."
"You are a real person who can kill holes with one sword. Who else would you rather have such an important task?" King Qin Guang said, "Your appearance fee is higher than mine."
King Bian Cheng sneered: "Why don't I believe it so much? Let me see the account book of Hell's No Gate!"
King Qin Guang said honestly: "Of course I also have organization fees, agency fees, carriage fees, labor fees, and aftermath fees."
King Bian Cheng took a deep breath: "You should really take the official path."
King Qin Guang smiled lightly and said, "Is it because I don't want to?"
yes.
If the story had developed normally, if he had come from a less deformed country.
He should be a very good city lord now, and he has made rapid progress in officialdom.
If the story develops normally, King Bian Cheng is also a very good Taoist student now. Maybe in the Criminal Investigation Department, maybe in Yujing Mountain... who knows?
Now I lean on the window and look at the long river. The rolling waves in front of me are so similar to those turbulent past events. King Bian Cheng said in confusion: "The current Wei emperor is known for his majesty, how could he tolerate Zhang Shoulian's evil deeds?"
Even he had heard of the audacity of the saying, "The beasts bear the burden of the Wei family, and the long river is the lonely man's waist."
He was able to stand on Wangjiang Tower and say such heroic words in front of the Central Grand View Empire. He was a master of both civil and military skills. How could his ruler condone a mere Zhang Shoulian?
He didn't think that the status of uncle Guo could play any role in front of Emperor Wei. I don’t think the Queen of Wei can interfere with Emperor Wei’s decision... How could such a person tolerate being in bed?
I was still busy practicing in the political hall, and I worked as a door god for two years in vain. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so unfamiliar with the situation in Wei, and I would know Zhang Shoulian's confidence.
"Maybe he has his reasons. If you are curious, you can explore the answer yourself." King Qin Guang said: "I only promise that what I told you is indeed the truth. Killing Zhang Shoulian did not violate your rules."
Because this trip is to let the "brutal killer who slaughtered all the families" declare his escape. When the situation in Wei State becomes turbulent, there will be no need for martial law in Jing State, and those Yamas who are stranded in Jing State can easily withdraw, so King Bian Cheng's action is crucial.
"What kind of cultivation level does this Zhang Shou Lian have?" King Bian Cheng asked.
"It's just enough to open the inner palace."
"Then this task is simple."
"It's just that I'll take care of you."
King Bian Cheng thought for a while: "Is this the real inner palace? Is it the real inner palace? Not an outer building? Not a divine presence? No hidden cultivation?"
"It's true that it can no longer be in the inner realm, I'm sure of it!"
"You sign and pledge it."
"Hey, I'm just a wanderer. Don't you want to become a frightened bird!" King Qin Guang vowed: "How can there be so many Dongzhen monks who hide their cultivation in the world?"
This makes sense.
King Bian Cheng was doubtful.
King Qin Guang turned his head to look back at the cabin and made a voice: "Then it's settled, just follow what we discussed. King Bian Cheng will carry out this mission, and King Wuguan will be responsible for the preliminary intelligence work and will meet King Bian Cheng outside the city. , I will be responsible for checking for any deficiencies and taking care of you two outside the Wei State."
King Bian Cheng nodded coldly.
King of the Rook Officials:?
When was it discussed?
Who consulted with me?
But when he saw King Qin Guang's eyes waiting for confirmation, he had no choice but to say "hmm" forcefully.
…
…
The state of Wei was in a key position, with great views to the north, the powerful Song Dynasty to the west, and the overbearing Chu State to the south.
In the past, it was still the Xia Kingdom in the east, but now there is no need to worry, it has become the southern border of Da Qi.
Since ancient times, there have been constant battles here, which is why martial arts are so strong.
Not to mention anything else, King Bian Cheng and King Qin Guang had just walked a few steps in this border town of Wei State, and they had already witnessed several fights. They started fighting whenever they disagreed.
King Wu Guan had already gone to Anyi City to do intelligence work, and King Bian Cheng and King Qin Guang were about to part ways.
"When it comes to assassination, King Guan is very professional. You can completely trust his professionalism." King Qin Guang said.
"Can we only trust this?" King Bian Cheng asked.
"This doesn't seem like a question you would ask." King Qin Guang glanced at him and said, "As long as you can maintain the power to kill him at any time, he is still reliable."
"That's really reliable." King Bian Cheng said.
"Discussing the word 'reliable' in the profession of killer shows a lack of professional sensitivity." King Qin Guang smiled: "After killing Zhang Shoulian, you can just leave and the reward will be paid to you."
He looked at King Bian Cheng: "...any more questions?"
King Bian Cheng actually has many questions to ask.
But in the end he just said: "Why don't we settle the reward now? You also know that the killer profession is precarious. If anything happens to you, I can't go to Yuanhai to collect debts."
King Qin Guang smiled: "Ask something else."
"Oh, okay." King Bian Cheng thought for a while: "Actually, I have a question that I have been holding back for a long time. I don't know whether I should ask it or whether it is appropriate..."
King Qin Guang said: "If you don't know whether you should ask, just don't ask. It's quite rude."
King Bian Cheng then asked: "Where is your cousin? Where is she now?"
King Qin Guang was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "I don't know."
"You don't know?" King Bian Cheng raised his eyelids slightly.
"I really don't know." King Qin Guang became more serious: "After King Chujiang sent her away, I didn't bother with her anymore. Life is a road that keeps forking. She and I just happened to walk together for a while. I admit that in All the experiences on that journey, but now we are on different paths. I only know that she is still living in a corner of the world, but that has nothing to do with me.”
"You have always been a very sober person." King Bian Cheng nodded, then turned and left: "Goodbye."
King Qin Guang waved his hand freely and watched King Bian Cheng walk into the crowd.
Before he completely merged into the crowd, he suddenly asked: "What if one day something really happens to me?"
King Bian Cheng did not look back and said in a cold voice: "Isn't it normal for a murderer to be killed?"
King Qin Guang asked again: "What if, I mean what if. What if when something happens to me, your reward hasn't been paid to you yet?"
King Bian Cheng kept walking forward in silence. After the figure disappeared, he left behind a sentence: "Then I will use my own methods to collect the debt."
King Qin Guang shrugged his shoulders.
Then he also turned around.
He understood that King Bian Cheng was persuading him, but he was a person who did not listen to persuasion.
Just like the path he suggested to King Bian Cheng, King Bian Cheng did not listen.
He decided to default on this payment until King Bian Cheng comes to him, and then settle the matter depending on his mood.
This mountain city named "Nanwei" is an important border town of Wei State. From before its construction until now, the imaginary military enemy for a long time has been the State of Chu. Therefore, the military strength is strong and ferocious fangs can be seen everywhere.
The oldest profession in the world is trading other people's lives.
Killers use the act of depriving others of their lives to gain supplies that ensure their own survival.
So every step is on the edge of the knife.
He walked against the crowd, walked out of the city alone, and left the territory of Wei alone.
The wind in the southern region seems to be more unruly than elsewhere. Always bumping into each other, refusing to obey the clothes.
A long time ago, he left his hometown alone.
He kept walking, but in fact there was no right direction.
But he wanted to see the long river again.
So he came to Chikiqiao, the ninth town among the nine towns in the Changhe River.
The sound of waves heard while riding the boat is far less clear and loud than the sound heard on Chiqiu Bridge. Perhaps it is precisely because of the suppression of this living ancestral river by the Nine Towns that you can feel this intensity on the Nine Bridges.
Even with the power of the human emperors in the Middle Ages and the power of the torrent of humanity, using nine towns as bridges and building platforms to watch the river, they could not make the river docile. Only then did the Yellow River Meetings occur in successive dynasties.
It's really majestic. On this bridge, people are like ants. Look up at the sky, it’s boundless. Overlooking the long river, it is vast and boundless.
The sound of the waves is like thunder, and the loess fills the Tianhe River.
The world is so big!
The place where he came from was extremely cramped.
Over the years, he has traveled all over the world, but his sky is still limited to his childhood.
Zeng Qing, Su Muqing, and Xiacheng, whom he had loved innocently.
It's like he created Hell without Gates with his own hands, and walked out of a new world on the narrow path of magic. But the spell itself kept reminding him why he was walking on such a rough road.
I don’t know how long he walked before his footsteps stopped.
The fresh water vapor from the long river swims flexibly on the huge chi kiss sculpture. Then it gathered into a vague mist, and a voice came out of the mist: "You seem to be waiting for me?"
"Let's take it as such." King Qin Guang stopped and said quietly.
The river wind roared wildly and roared loudly, but when it passed over the Nine Towns, it instantly became gentle and gently entangled the corners of his clothes. And his long hair hangs still, unmoved by the river wind.
"You are very confident." The voice in the fog said.
King Qin Guang was very calm: "Guest, you broke the rules."
"Ha, rules?" The mist steamed, as if smiling.
King Qin Guang did not feel dissatisfied and said to himself: "All the rules of Hell No Gate are made by me.
"All customers can only place orders with the 'Styx Boats' scattered all over the place. The ghost houses in various places will initially select the tasks, and then the nearby Niutou, Mamian, Judge, and Mengpo will pick them up and then execute them.
“All tasks that require mobilizing Yama require a deposit to be paid to ghost houses in various places.
"I will then focus on selecting the tasks. After I confirm them, the task contract will be established and the kid will ask the customer for the balance.
"The ghost houses in various places, as well as the various foreign affairs organizations that assist in the execution of tasks, are completely independent of each other and have no intersection. I have always had one-way contact with various foreign affairs organizations.
"Theoretically, customers should not be able to find me or any other Yama."
He looked at the mist in front of him: "Of course nothing is impossible in this world. You will always have your own way. Or...you guys?"
"Interesting." The voice in the mist said in an uninteresting tone: "The structure of your organization is very complete, and you are a rare talent. I must have given you a lot of clues when I found you... Tell me, what else do you know?"
"I don't know anything, I don't want to know anything, and you'd better not let me know anything." King Qin Guang's mask was gently clasped on his waist, as if he was staring blankly at the stormy waves on the other side of the bridge: "We are just The relationship between hiring and being hired. I abide by the rules of the killer profession and maintain the reputation of "Hell has no door". We don't need to and should not have any intersection. "
"It makes sense." The voice in the mist smiled: "But have you ever confirmed whether you are qualified to be reasonable? At this moment, in front of me?"
King Guang of Qin was also smiling: "I regard the You family as a thorn in the side, and it is inconvenient to take action openly. They can also deprive me of Yin Guan's qualifications to speak truth... I am afraid there are not many people in Jing State who meet these conditions. To this day, I still don’t know who you are, or who you are, but when you are in danger, you will inevitably have some outrageous speculations. If I die here, these outrageous speculations will spread all over the world.”
"You are getting more and more interesting!" said the voice in the mist: "Let me think about it, how do you plan to spread those outrageous speculations all over the world. Rely on those so-called Yamas? Yang Xuance, the last prince of the Yang Kingdom , Ling Wufeng, the so-called 'evil gentleman' who was born in the Song Dynasty, She Disheng, the rune genius who defected from Jucheng... Or whose name do you want me to name?"
This indifferent voice is by no means high-pitched, but it is like a powerful voice: "Do you think they still have a chance to do it?"
King Qin Guang's expression remained unchanged: "No need to deceive me. You can name all Yamas, you can find each of them and kill them - if you know for sure."
The voice in the mist softened: "You are very confident. Which Yama made you so confident?"
King Qin Guang said: "What gives me confidence is every ghost house that has been able to survive independently. A large part of them do not belong to Hell No Gate, they are just part-time transfer tasks, but they have taken root everywhere. Yes. Of course, you can also think of the hard work I have put into this organization over the years as a certain Yama."
The voice in the fog said: "With this level of threat, do you think I would be worried?"
King Qin Guang said: "Of course you are not worried, let alone afraid. You just don't want to cause more troubles... Why bother?"
"Hahahahaha, today's young people are really...much more cunning than we were back then!" The voice in the fog said: "Okay! Then I'll ask you a few questions, and I'll let you go after I've answered them."
"No, no, no." King Qin Guang shook his head at this moment. He stood in the center of the huge stone bridge, with his own order. He looked at the mist in front of him and said: "Before that, I need to ask you first. The reason why I took on such a mission and the reason why I took the risk to stop in front of you today is that I hope you can solve the confusion I have had for many years."
"What if I don't answer?" asked the voice in the mist.
"Hellless Gate does business with clearly marked prices. We don't do good deeds and we don't make friends." King Qin Guang said: "If you don't answer my question, how can I answer your question?"
A chuckle came from the mist: "Then you ask."
King Qin Guang's face was expressionless, but he said every word - "Why is that big tortoise in the Kingdom of God's Blessing able to lie there so happily?"
