Chapter 116 Who Am I and Who Are You?

In the northern wooden house, since there was no fire, it was so cold that people unconsciously wrapped themselves in cotton robes.

The expressions on the faces of the seven people sitting on the floor were not very good, especially the tall man, whose face was so dark that it seemed like water was dripping from his face.

"I originally thought it was a worm, but I didn't expect it to be a dragon. It's really hard to guard against it until death. Alas."

The remaining six people listened to the tall man's words, their expressions did not change much, but they felt a little more cautious in their hearts. They did not want to die like this.

Seeing no reaction from the others, the tall man raised his head and looked around everyone, "Okay, when we come here, we must be prepared to die here. The important thing is what happens next!"

"Buxiu, have you tested that person's level?"

The Moon Bun Ninja nodded, exhaled to warm his hands, and said, "Whether it's skill or patience, that person is above me, and I feel like that person's bottom is still exposed."

"Oh?" The tall man raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "You haven't even figured out that person's background? That person can probably tell something through something, right?"

"Poison, hidden weapon." Bu Xiu said firmly. After speaking, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and added, "This person is different from those people. He is very timid and cautious. He will not do anything without an absolute chance. Moreover, this person's lightness and concealment skills are excellent, and he is the best among all of us." superior!"

After hearing this, the expressions on the other six people's faces became a little more solemn. Bu Xiu's Qinggong was already one of the best among them, so his words were naturally credible.

"Light Kung Fu, concealed weapons and poison, how tricky!" The tall man frowned, it was difficult to handle, and Zhao was more troublesome than he thought.

What's more important is that this time the design has made the other party wary, and it will be more difficult to take action later. Moreover, many people exposed their bottoms tonight, which is simply adding insult to injury!

"Let's prepare early. It's not just as simple as Yelu Qingquan and that kid dying together tonight. Many of us have been exposed, and offense and defense will be exchanged!" The tall man said with a bit of solemnity in his voice, looking at everyone with stern eyes. .

Several people were a little frightened when the tall man looked at them, so they had to lower their heads slightly and not look into the tall man's eyes. To everyone, tonight's miscalculation was just a minor accident. If Yelu Qingquan had been more careful, he would not have died.

The tall man seemed to have noticed everyone's thoughts, and said in a cold voice with a stern expression, "It's no big deal if you be careful. Yelu's death is a wake-up call for us! If we want to get down the mountain alive, we must be very alert. We only have one life!" That’s it, it’s your business to listen or not!”

After saying that, the tall man stood up and walked out without looking back. Everyone looked at each other. Although they were a little dissatisfied, they still paid attention.

In the wooden house on the other side, the three Buddhists and the three Taoists were sitting opposite each other. The fire was burning brightly on the ground. The six of them were waiting for Zhao Jiu's arrival with sullen faces.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao held the wine and slowly opened the door despite the wind and snow. Seeing everyone's solemn expressions, I just feel inexplicable. Isn't it normal to die together? As for this expression?

"What's wrong? Why are you looking for me?"

Zhao's joking voice sounded, and almost all the six people frowned in discomfort, but they all looked at each other. Although they felt uncomfortable, they didn't know what to say.

"If it's okay, I'll go back to sleep." Zhao saw no one talking and squinted at the sky. Well, it was already a bit late. No wonder he was a little sleepy.

Hearing the impatience in Zhao Jiu's words, everyone did not intend to play riddles. Zhang Chongjing looked around at everyone, and the five people nodded in unison. Seeing this, Zhang Chongjing sighed secretly, stood up and asked doubtfully.

"Master Zhao, I am confused. When Brother Chen was intercepted and killed, he didn't know that Master Zhao..."

"Someone stopped me. Although that person couldn't kill me, I couldn't kill him for a while..." Zhang Chongjing asked sincerely, and Zhao didn't ramble on. He said calmly, "He is a Japanese ninja. The method was a bit unbelievable, and I was stuck and couldn’t get away.”

Afraid that a few people would be confused and blame him, Zhao quickly explained the reason. After thinking for a while, he asked in confusion, "Everyone of the six of you is entangled? No one is free?"

"Master Zhao, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's discuss the next plan." Du Nan saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he quickly changed the topic.

How could Zhao not understand the changes in the expressions on the faces of the three Buddhists and the difficulties they faced? It was just that these three people were stopped by two people. He didn't have a good impression of the Buddhist people, and with such a useless performance, Zhao didn't even want to pretend. He glanced at the three bald people sitting with disdain and sneered unscrupulously.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Zhang Chongjing hurriedly spoke to mediate, "Mr. Zhao, this person has passed away but we still have to go on. There is no point in arguing now! We still have to come up with a way, we can't just be passive, right?"

What he said made sense. Zhao had no grievances against him and didn't want to embarrass him. He simply sat down on the ground, hugged the wine bottle and said, "Then you decide. I will just cooperate with you."

Seeing Zhao, they sat down. Zhang Chongjing and the others were relieved. You looked at me and I looked at you. After a while, Zhang Chongjing spoke carefully.

"What we mean is that they know the least about Master Zhao, so..."

"You don't want me to go, do you?" Zhao interrupted Zhang Chongjing before he finished speaking, and asked with a smile.

Zhang Chongjing nodded and said, "That's what I mean..."

"Hahaha..." After understanding what everyone meant, Zhao laughed without any scruples, glanced at the six people with mocking eyes, and asked sarcastically.

"Who am I and who are you? Didn't you see the green official robes on me before I went up the mountain? Ah! You are shameless!"

"That's the Jinyiwei Zhenfushi, a powerful official from the fourth rank! The highest Jinyiwei is the third rank, and I'm only in my early twenties this year! Do you understand what I mean?"

Zhao Jue saw that everyone's expressions changed slightly, but no one spoke, so he drank a sip of wine to moisten his throat before continuing.

"What I mean is that as long as I get down the mountain alive, my future will be bright. So, if I'm not sure, I don't want to risk my life with you!"

"It's okay for me to take action, but I will never take the lead! And I've said in advance that if the situation is not right, I will definitely leave you and run! To be honest, I have already stepped half a foot into the first rank, the worst case..."

Although he didn't finish his words, the six people could understand what Zhao Jue meant, which was nothing more than cherishing life and being sure to deal with everyone.

Zhang Chongjing did not think for long this time, and stood up angrily, "Lord Zhao, you are also a pillar of the court, how can you say such selfish words, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world?"

"Riddle? Few people can laugh in Zhaoyu!" Zhao sneered disdainfully, and his words were full of sarcasm, "Besides, you are not naive enough to think that you can decide national affairs by fighting a few people, right?"

"The emperor just doesn't want the Hu people to drag on. If military affairs can be decided by fighting like this, would there be hundreds of thousands of troops stationed at the border?"

"Don't think too highly of yourself!"
