Without the banana-leaf-style zither, the woman's delicate body leaned forward slightly and stopped swaying. The blind zither player spat out a mouthful of blood and reached out to pull out a black iron arrow from his back. The sharp arrow only pierced an inch into his back and did not seriously injure his lungs.
A long spear pierced through the wall and pierced toward Hsu Fengnian. In the end, the demoness inexplicably threw out an iron arrow that pierced through the assassin's head. Hsu Fengnian easily dodged the tip of the spear. He looked curiously at the zither player who had first killed and then saved someone. He then waved his hand.
The archer youth drew his bow and shot from three hundred paces away to hide his tracks. Since he had been exposed, he leaped nimbly from the roof like a leopard. When he was a hundred paces away, he drew his bow like a full moon and aimed at the demoness.
With his master's signal, the youth was not in a hurry to shoot. Besides, if the first arrow did not succeed, whether the second arrow could cause a fatal injury to the zither player was another matter. Apart from the string iron arrow in his hand, there was only one arrow left in the quiver on his back.
She stood up and said slowly, "Hsu Fengnian, or should I say Beiliang's His Royal Highness? When I was in Longyao Province, someone first bought your death with five hundred catties of gold. Later, someone bought your life with six hundred catties of gold. "
Hsu Fengnian nodded and said, "There are only eight or nine people in Beiliang who know my whereabouts this time. Many people can be ruled out as suspects. Now it seems that if it's not Chu Lushan, then it's Ye Xizhen who wants my life. Lu Qiu 'er definitely has five hundred catties of gold, but Ye Xizhen might not. But the affairs of the world are unpredictable. Heaven knows what the truth is. As for buying my life, it's definitely my master, Li Yishan. Why do you still want to kill me after receiving the second batch of gold? "
She said matter-of-factly, "I have to pay attention to first come, first served. I told myself that as long as the three strings are broken and you can still live, I won't kill you."
Without waiting for Hsu Fengnian to move, the youth decisively shot an arrow and broke one of the five strings lying quietly on the limestone floor.
Xue Songguan, who was both a devil and an assassin, asked, "I've already decided not to kill you. Are you going to kill me?"
Hsu Fengnian's face twisted as he said, "If you don't fight back, I'll kill you!"
The corners of her mouth twitched as if she was trying to laugh it off.
Hsu Fengnian sat down cross-legged and finally had the time to absorb the essence of the Two Dhyana Gold Core.
Young Wu jumped all the way to Hsu Fengnian's side along the roof and wall. He cautiously looked at the female devil whose zither was destroyed by him.
She just carefully picked up the guqin fragments and strings, carefully held them in her arms, and then sat on the stone steps in a daze.
The heavy rain gradually stopped.
This Old Man's son, Zhao Dingxiu, walked out of the courtyard accompanied by the blacksmith. The latter went to collect the corpse. This Old Man's son looked at the zither player who stood up and curtsied. He then looked at the young man who was meditating at the foot of the wall and the youth with the bow. He sighed and said, "I heard everything you said. Everyone who comes is a guest, come in. "
The blind zither player walked into the courtyard first and did not forget to pick up the small umbrella that was slanted on the threshold.
After the time it took to burn a stick of incense, Hsu Fengnian stood up and went to the wall to take out the spring thunder. He then walked into the courtyard with Young Wu.
In this room, other than the unconscious Su Su, there was also Beiliang, His Royal Highness, Young Wu, the elder of Western Shu, Zhao Dingxiu, and the female devil Xue Songguan. It was really ridiculous.
This Old Man's son glanced at Hsu Fengnian and said, "Every family has its own difficulties. I didn't expect that Beiliang, who had three hundred thousand Steel Cavalrymen, would be in such a mess."
Hsu Fengnian took off his outer robe and said with a smile, "I'm talking about a little rich. When a family has a big business, especially after it has completely settled down, the son of the Zhao family can't do anything to Beiliang, and Beimang can't do anything to the three hundred thousand Steel Cavalrymen. Everyone has nothing to do, so there will be all kinds of internal strife."
This Old Man's son laughed coldly and said, "His Royal Highness is really broad-minded."
Hsu Fengnian sat on the threshold and leaned against the door. "In order to pass on a message to you, I almost lost my life here. Is this how the Western Shu people treat their guests?"
The Great Scholar of the Spring and Autumn Period said coldly, "Don't forget that Western Shu was trampled by your Beiliang army."
Hsu Fengnian waved his hand and said, "Beiliang didn't destroy Western Shu, and there were also Southern Liang and Western Liang who did this kind of thing that left their names in history. But Southern Liang and Western Liang wouldn't let go of your Western Shu Crown Prince. Even if I say a word now, my heart will ache. Can you stop keeping me in suspense? "
This Old Man's son narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you believe that I won't let someone cut off your head with a sword?"
Hsu Fengnian pointed at the blind zither player. The woman who had her back facing him said telepathically, "Official Xue Song has already accepted six hundred kilograms of gold. If Swordmaster Qi wants to kill him, I will stop you."
Hsu Fengnian smiled and said, "Old Scholar Zhao, what do you think?"
This Old Man's son snorted coldly.
Hsu Fengnian said, "The revival of Western Shu is not in the old Western Shu. Eight hundred miles down south, there are eighteen tribes of Nanzhao. You can talk about reviving the country after you unify them. Beiliang has hidden pawns there that you can use."
This Old Man's son's eyes turned cold.
Hsu Fengnian went straight to the point and said, "There is no free lunch in this world. I will first accept a deposit. I heard that the one surnamed Qi has been secretly forging a sword for the past twenty years. Regardless of whether the sword has been forged or not, even if it is only a sword embryo, he will still give it to me. "
This Old Man's son was furious and cursed, "Get out of here!"
Hsu Fengnian rolled his eyes and said, "Zhao Dingxiu, don't take it for granted. Let alone a sword, I reckon that if you had a granddaughter and heard that there was hope for reviving the country, wouldn't you give it to her with both hands?"
This Old Man's son was so angry that his lips turned green. Fortunately, he had never practiced martial arts. Otherwise, he would most likely pick up his weapon and fight this little bastard to the death.
The blacksmith who had returned to the courtyard said calmly, "You can take that Spring and Autumn Sword."
Hsu Fengnian was stunned.
The blacksmith looked at Hsu Fengnian as if the sun had risen from the west. He laughed heartily and said, "The battle in the alley was full of strength. I have been listening to your speech. When you were fighting, you didn't say more than ten words. I know that you are a straightforward person. I like it. You are just like my master in the past, our Sword Emperor of Western Shu. If he wanted to kill someone, he would kill. I believe that this Spring and Autumn Sword will not be disgraced in your hands. "
After saying this, the blacksmith was even more straightforward. He stepped into the courtyard and a sword case broke out of the ground.
Before it came out of the case, the sword aura was already surging!
