As he spoke, he opened his palm. There was a silver needle in his palm. It was so small that it was almost invisible. One had to look closely to see it.
"Is there an anesthetic on it?" Deng Yue asked.
Chu Li shook his head. "The needles sealed their blood vessels, so they couldn't move."
"This …" Deng Yue smiled bitterly. "I don't think it's possible?"
Sealing acupuncture points was a legendary skill. The human body had many acupuncture points, and many of them were fatal. There were also acupuncture points that could numb people. However, it was not easy to make these acupuncture points work.
The blood vessels in the human body were constantly circulating. Sealing acupuncture points depended on the timing. It was not possible to make people numb by simply hitting the numb acupuncture point. It had to be done while the blood was circulating.
Therefore, no one could do it. It was only a legendary skill in theory.
Chu Li smiled without saying a word.
The two of them passed through the alley and arrived at an ordinary courtyard.
The courtyard looked no different from other courtyards. There were no Protectors outside, so it was easy to be overlooked.
Deng Yue knocked on the door six times, two long, two short, and two long.
The courtyard door opened with a 'squeak'. Two young men were standing inside with long knives in their hands. They closed fist saluted and bowed as they retreated.
Deng Yue extended his hand. "Master, please!"
Chu Li nodded and stepped into the courtyard.
There were eight middle-aged men in the courtyard. They looked at him cautiously. When they saw Deng Yue, they bowed.
Deng Yue waved his hand. "Where is he?"
A round-faced middle-aged man replied, "He's carefully watching over him. Commander, please follow me."
He reached out and pushed the wall. With a 'squeak', a moon door opened. This moon door could not be seen before.
Deng Yue smiled. "Master, he's here."
Chu Li nodded.
As expected of someone in charge of intelligence and assassination. He was cautious and flexible.
The two of them passed through the moon door and arrived at another courtyard. They saw six people standing there. One was an old man, one was an old woman, and the rest were young men. They looked simple and unassuming.
Only their eyes could move, and they revealed expressions of shock and terror.
Chu Li smiled. "The six of you from the Bu Tian Tower, you're too arrogant. You dare to stay in the capital after committing a crime. Do you really think that the imperial court has no one to stop you?"
Deng Yue glared fiercely at them from the side.
It was these fellows who had turned him into a laughingstock and even caused him to lose his official position. If he really wanted to retire and return to his hometown, he would definitely die. How many people had he offended and how many had he assassinated? Someone would definitely settle the score.
Chu Li reached out and patted them.
This time, their mouths could speak, and they moaned.
Deng Yue's eyes were filled with fervor. He wanted to learn such a miraculous technique.
Chu Li pointed at the old woman. "Is this the one who tried to assassinate the princess?"
He turned his head and said, "Commander Deng, bring me a jar of strong liquor."
Deng Yue didn't ask any more questions. He waved his hand and gave the order.
A jar of wine was quickly brought over along with two wine bowls. Chu Li poured two bowls of wine and splashed them on the faces of the six men.
Under the effects of the strong alcohol, their appearances quickly changed and returned to their original appearances. The old woman and the old man were both young men and women, while the other four were about the same age, but their appearances were completely different.
He had the same facial features, but he looked completely different, as if he was a completely different person.
Chu Li exclaimed, "What an exquisite disguise technique!"
Deng Yue said, "He actually wants to break the disguise like this!"
Chu Li looked at the young woman who was disguised as the old woman.
This young woman had a beautiful appearance, and she was cold with a bit of a murderous aura. She stared at Chu Li coldly. "Monk, how dare you. Aren't you afraid of our revenge?"
Chu Li smiled. "Although the Heaven Repairing Tower is strong, it is not easy to kill me. How does the Heaven Repairing Tower select their targets? Is it because of money, a commission, or some other reason?"
The beautiful woman sneered. "This is the Heaven Repairing Tower's secret. Outsiders do not need to know!"
Chu Li said, "Then who is the person in charge of the Heaven Repairing Tower in Dayu? Where is he? "
"Heh!" The beautiful woman sneered and looked at him as if she was looking at an idiot.
Deng Yue also felt that it was strange. Chu Li's questions would not be answered, and it would be a waste of time to ask. Instead, it would make her wary, and it would be even harder to get any information out of her.
Chu Li shook his head and sighed. "You might not be at the level yet. I don't know where the highest level of the Heaven Repairing Tower is."
The beautiful woman said, "Monk, do you think I will tell you?"
