Putting aside these matters, Ye Lang seemed to have to face the most important problem at the moment. That was, when would the employer who was going to hand over the mission arrive?
And this problem didn't seem to need to be thought about for too long, because immediately someone came over to say that the employer had arrived and wanted to treat everyone to a meal.
Thus, Ye Lang followed these mercenaries and arrived at the employer's mansion. It seemed to be a mountain villa in the middle of nowhere. When Ye Lang arrived, he already said one sentence — —
"This place is really remote, why are you staying here? Could it be that you want to do something shameful?"
"Frank! Don't speak nonsense, after we go in, don't say another word!! "Hearing Ye Lang's words, the mercenary group members blushed with shame and at the same time gave him a warning.
"Why, I didn't say anything wrong …" Ye Lang fought for his rights, his words were indeed not wrong, but — —
"You didn't say anything wrong, you just shouldn't say it, understand?"
"I don't understand!" Ye Lang straightforwardly shook his head.
"In short, even if I beat you to death, you can't say a word!"
"Why beat me to death, can't it be you guys?" Ye Lang asked.
"Alright, even if we all die, you can't say a word, okay?"
"Yes!" Ye Lang nodded.
After entering the mountain villa, Ye Lang really didn't say another word, even if everyone died …
Since Ye Lang belonged to the category of unimportant people, after entering the mountain villa, he and a few other similarly unimportant mercenaries ate the prepared banquet in the living room.
The mercenaries ate large pieces of meat, drank large bowls of wine, and ate heartily!
The leader of the mercenary group and a few other important people brought the box inside to hand over the mission to the employer!
At first, the employer was in a somewhat dark place, so the mercenaries couldn't see him very clearly. After that, he walked out and entered the mercenaries' line of sight.
However, the mercenaries discovered that this employer was wearing a black mask that covered the upper half of his face and a black cloak. On the cloak, there seemed to be a number thirteen symbol.
This appearance made people feel a little strange, and it aroused suspicion!
Actually, this wasn't the only thing that they had to be suspicious of. There was something even more strange. If this was the employer's territory, then why did they wait a few days before letting them come here? Why couldn't they come before?
Just like what Ye Lang had said, were they going to do some shady business?
If Ye Lang was here, and he wasn't muddle-headed, he would have felt that something was wrong. This employer didn't seem to care about the mercenaries' opinions.
Either he wasn't afraid of being found out, or he was fine even if the mercenaries found out …
"Have you seen what's inside?" The employer didn't care about anything else and just asked.
"Boss, you don't trust us. We are mercenaries that follow the rules. We wouldn't do such a thing," the mercenaries said unhappily.
"Alright, I believe you. Put the things on the table. Your remuneration is on it!" The employer pointed at the table in the room and said to the mercenaries.
The mercenaries did not suspect anything else. They put down the things and opened the money pouch on the table …
Puff!
The moment the money pouch was opened, it suddenly exploded and sprayed out a lot of dust. In an instant, the dust entered the mercenaries' noses and mouths. They didn't even have time to hold their breaths.
"You …"
After the mercenaries breathed in the dust, they immediately bled from their orifices and fell to the ground. Some of them pointed at the employer unwillingly.
"Don't blame me. You can only blame yourselves for being too stupid. You can't even see through such a simple setup. Small mercenaries are small mercenaries!" The employer said coldly.
Just like what the employer said, if these mercenaries were a little more experienced and clever, they wouldn't have died. This matter was telling them that there was something wrong with this matter.
This group of mercenaries was a collection of unconventional mercenaries. The employer saw this point in them. He knew that they were easy to deal with and wouldn't arouse suspicion.
The things these unconventional mercenaries were escorting must be very unimportant. No one would be at ease to give them important things.
"Do you know why I didn't put a seal on it? It's because it doesn't matter if you know. You'll all be dead. Even if I show it to you, you won't know what it is!" The corner of the employer's mouth revealed a confident smile.
This was also the reason why he was so at ease. He believed that in this world, other than himself, no one would know what was inside.
"Baby, you're finally back! It's all that Gao Fei's fault. He actually lost his kingdom to the Thirteenth Young Master of the Ye Family, causing me to have to change my plans. I can't continue over there! "The employer touched the things in the box as if he was touching the most precious thing in the world.
From his words, it could be seen that he originally wanted to use the uniqueness of Tian Jiu City to carry out some things. However, because Ye Lang won Tian Jiu City and the Ye Family entered the city on a large scale, his plan was immediately put on hold. He had to transport the unfinished things out and find a place to continue.
He slowly admired it. He wasn't worried about the mercenaries outside, because he had already put a fatal poison in the food. He believed that when he came out, the people outside would all be dead.
What was there to be afraid of when they were dead? He didn't care how long they waited outside, because they were dead!
After he finished admiring it, he would go out and burn this villa. That way, there wouldn't be any traces left!
No one would notice the situation here. This villa was originally in the middle of nowhere. Even if it was burned, no one would know.
However, who would care where these mercenaries, this bunch of mediocre mercenaries, died?
Mercenaries had always been a high-risk profession. They all had a kind of awareness that they could die at any time and leave this world at any time.
If even they had such thoughts, then there was no need to talk about other people. They wouldn't even care about their lives!
He didn't doubt whether the mercenaries outside would notice that there was something wrong with the food. This was because he believed that the poison he had refined was colorless and tasteless. After eating it, it would take a while for it to take effect. This kind of poison was best used to deal with this kind of situation. It wouldn't take effect immediately and cause those who hadn't eaten it to be on guard.
This was actually the reason why he was waiting. He was waiting for the poison to take effect!
"It's about time. It's time to get down to business. Baby, I'll see you later!" The employer put the things in the box into a backpack and carefully carried it on his back. Then, he went out.
