Chapter 443 Knocking on the Mountain and Shaking the Tiger
Yang Jiu also thought about what was wrong with it, and he said: "So Xiaoyi, what kind of strangeness do you think there is in this?"
I thought about it and said, "I don't know, if I could kill sixteen people at once, I was either a mortal enemy or someone was taking advantage of me."
"What does it mean to be used?" Yang Jiu asked in confusion: "Isn't it better to use living people?"
I shook my head: "Perhaps, the mastermind behind this is planning to knock down the mountain and shake the tiger."
"Knocking on the mountain shakes the tiger?" Yang Jiu suddenly realized: "You mean"
"Yes, using the death of some people to deter others."
"How cruel!" Yang Jiu said angrily. At the end, he suddenly raised his head and looked at me with a worried look, and said: "Xiao Yi, you asked me before if anyone was harassing my guild. Could it be that my guild Are you being targeted too?"
"No, I don't know about this either." I shook my head and said, "At the moment, I'm just guessing and I don't have any concrete evidence."
"So that's how it is." Yang Jiu fell into deep thought.
"Ah, let me ask you, Yang Gao." I pulled him out of his thoughts and said, "When do you usually come back?"
Yang Jiu thought for a while: "It's usually around five o'clock. If the dungeon we go down to is deeper, maybe we can't say seven or eight o'clock."
"It's been really hard for you guys for so long," I said.
"Any questions?" he asked.
"No, just asking." I looked at the time: "It's getting late, I should go back."
"Okay, then look forward to seeing you next time."
I nodded, walked to the door, pushed it open, and just stepped out with one foot, but suddenly turned around and said: "By the way, you must be as careful as possible during this period. It is essential to be on guard against others."
"Yeah, I will."
After walking out of the room, I wandered around the slums for a while. The orphanages here were very shabby, and some of the equipment inside were also very old. Some children with patched clothes were innocently playing in a severely damaged one. They were laughing on the slide. Next to them was a very plainly dressed teacher. There was also a faint smile on the teacher’s face. In my opinion, this smile was far better than that of the ladies in gorgeous clothes and listening to operas. People want to come to beauty and purity.
Sighing, I slowly walked out of the ghetto.
Head-on, they met Liu Yu and his group.
Liu Yu asked me very rudely: "Where is Yang Jie?"
I shook my hand, pointed behind me, and said, "I'm lying down at home sleeping."
After hearing this, she didn't even thank me and just walked past me.
Having just heard about their life experience, I understood her rude behavior and just spread my hands and curled my lips.
The others were far less indifferent than Liu Yu, but kept winking at me and waving goodbye.
I waved goodbye to them one by one.
Duan Muyu was at the end of the team, with the little wind-attributed stick figure lying on her head. When she passed me, her face turned red. After a while, she waved to me, and then quickly followed the team. .
However, my eyes were all fixed on the stick figure above her head. The little stick figure was only the size of a little finger, and it actually stretched out its hand and waved it at me.
Ha, this little thing!
I smiled, then turned around and continued walking home.
That night, without receiving any letter, I went directly to the casino.
The casino was still noisy, and even though it was several steps away, one could still hear the noise going on inside.
The big man who greeted me opened the door enthusiastically, and I walked in. At first glance, Ren was holding a pot of wine, tasting it bit by bit. The taste of the wine was very pungent, but very fragrant. It was brewed by dwarves. It is known as the strongest wine in the entire Zephyr Continent.
Seeing me coming in, Ren shook the pot as a greeting.
I nodded and scanned around, not far away, I saw Shan Yong sitting on a chair watching his subordinates gamble.
I walked up to Shan Yong and patted his shoulder. Shan Yong raised his head and stood up immediately after seeing clearly that it was me.
I shook my head and waved my hand to him, indicating that he would come out with me.
After leaving the gate and finding a very quiet corner not far away, Shan Yong asked, "Why are you here?"
"Come here, of course there is something going on."
He nodded and said: "What is it? Is it the next deployment?"
I shook my head: "You have the final say on deployment matters. I won't interfere until the critical moment. I came here this time to read your notebook again. I didn't finish it yesterday."
Shan Yong took out the notebook from his arms and handed it to me.
After taking the notebook, I said habitually: "You are so dedicated, and you still carry it with you!"
I carefully read through it several times from beginning to end, but I couldn't find the guild name I wanted.
Handing the small book back, I smiled and said, "You did a good job. My guild's name has been checked out."
"Yesterday you checked it off after you left," Shan Yong said, "Today the second young master even went to the adventurer base for verification. To be honest, my heart was in my throat at that time. Fortunately, I found your guild's name. When I was there, my name was gray. I really didn’t expect you to be able to resolve the guild affairs so quickly.”
"Of course" I smiled: "I already said it yesterday, I am very familiar with this kind of thing."
Rarely, Shan Yong did not refute my words, but stood aside silently.
I said, "The guild was destroyed yesterday. Was it you who did it?"
He responded: "I did it."
"Starting from an unruly small guild and trying to minimize the guild's losses. I have to say that you have spent a lot of energy on the future development of Airui City."
"You're right," Shan Yong said, "But I overlooked one point. I don't have any expectations for the future of Airui City, nor am I qualified to look into its future. The reason why I chose an unruly small guild is In order to better cover people’s eyes and ears.”
"Well, what you said is right," I said, "Presumably, the second young master is also very satisfied with your behavior, right?"
Shan Yong said: "He didn't praise me, he just smiled and nodded at me."
"Oh? Didn't I praise you?" I thought about it and said, "And I didn't reward you with anything later?"
"No."
I was a little confused: "The first task was completed very well. He should be happy, right?"
"Yes, he is happy," Shan Yong said.
"How did you know?" I asked.
"The second young master's personality is changeable, but there are a few actions that will never change. Among them is smiling and nodding. As long as he has this action, it means he is satisfied."
"Hey, do you really think that you have studied your master so thoroughly?" I said hehey.
"Being subordinate to others, how can you survive without this ability?" Shan Yong sighed: "Especially when serving such a difficult master, you need to be more careful."
