"What kind of people?"
"You mean people who fight and kill? However, there is one thing, and that is to have people who can keep the secret. "
"Why are you being so mysterious? What do you want?"
"Don't ask. Just help me find people."
"Isn't that obvious? If I don't know what you're doing, who's willing to accept the job? How am I going to find people and bid? "
"I've already said, people who fight and kill will do. As a broker, you should know that some customers don't want to reveal their secrets. Are you not going to accept the job if they don't tell you their secrets? "
Guan Fangyi laughed coldly. "Are you a customer? You're obviously using me. Even if I die, I should know why. If you don't tell me what it is, I won't do it! "
Niu Youdao was silent for a while. Slowly, he said, "I want to rob a batch of goods at sea!"
Guan Fangyi blinked. "How many people do you need?"
Niu Youdao asked, "How many can you find?"
Guan Fangyi suddenly smiled and spat out three words, "Steal the warhorses?"
Niu Youdao, who was clumsily fiddling with his hair, looked up at the woman in the mirror. "Why do you say so?"
Guan Fangyi said, "Do you still need to tell me what you're here for? The disciples of the Heavenly Jade Sect, Lingxiu Mountain, Retaining Immortal Sect, and Fuyun Sect have all come to Qi. It's not that you don't have enough people, but that you don't have enough people. What kind of thing would you need so many people to rob on the sea? "
Niu Youdao looked down at the woman sitting in front of him and asked casually, "Do I need so many people to rob warhorses?"
Guan Fangyi said, "The people from the four sects are not enough for you. It's obvious that you want to rob a lot of warhorses. You have to attack all the ships at the same time. If one of the ships releases the news, it's useless even if you rob it. The person who dared to transport such a large number of warhorses on the sea must have extraordinary mobilization ability. As long as the news was leaked, it was likely that before the loot could be transported back, they would suffer a counterattack on the way. This job is not easy to get! "
Niu Youdao: "Since you know, you should know what kind of people I want."
Guan Fangyi asked curiously, "Who's so unlucky? Whose warhorse do you want to rob?"
Niu Youdao: "I can't tell you about that for now."
At this moment, a maid's voice came from outside, "Master, Shen Qiu wants to see Teacher."
Niu Youdao was helping Guan Fangyi with her hair and could not let go, so she shouted, "Let him in."
The door opened and Shen Qiu entered.
Knowing that Niu Youdao had spent the night in Guan Fangyi's room and that he was combing Guan Fangyi's hair, Shen Qiu looked at Niu Youdao with a strange gaze.
"A message from the Sect Leader." Shen Qiu took out a piece of paper.
Niu Youdao asked, "Is it urgent?"
Shen Qiu: "No hurry!"
Niu Youdao found it difficult to let go. "Put it over there."
Shen Qiu put the paper on the table and turned to leave. Before leaving, she could not help but look back, and the corner of her mouth twitched.
When the maid at the door closed the door, she was also surprised to see the situation in the room.
After the door was closed, Guan Fangyi could not help but laugh. "Combing a woman's hair, especially for me, is seen by others. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
Niu Youdao: "Whoever wants to laugh at me can laugh at me. If I care about this, I don't want to live anymore."
After much difficulty, Niu Youdao finally finished combing Guan Fangyi's hair. He turned to look at the secret letter, while Guan Fangyi continued to sit in front of the dressing table and put on her headdress.
Hearing Guan Fangyi's complaint about not helping her comb her hair, Niu Youdao, who was reading the secret letter, frowned and muttered, "Ghost cultivators …"
The secret letter was sent by Gongsun Bu. The people guarding the island discovered that there were about five hundred ships gathered. At the same time, a large number of ghost cultivators appeared on the island. Obviously, the cultivators who were going to escort the ships had arrived.
After pondering for a while, Niu Youdao was secretly amazed. This time, the people who were helping Shao Pingbo to transport the warhorses were really well-prepared. Those crew members could not see ghost cultivators, but they knew that there were ghost cultivators around them. He did not know if they were being watched, but they would definitely behave themselves and not dare to act recklessly.
In this way, they could save a lot of manpower. Otherwise, how many people would be needed to guard the crew of five hundred ships?
The other party's preparations were so complete that he was a little amazed.
Guan Fangyi, who was holding a small mirror and looking at her hair, asked, "What ghost cultivators?"
Niu Youdao crushed the secret letter. "The person I want to deal with actually found a large number of ghost cultivators to escort him. I don't know where he found them from."
Guan Fangyi put down the small mirror and applied makeup again. "It seems that you have a clear grasp of the other party's situation! The other party is really unlucky. As for where the ghost cultivators came from, there is a place in the Kingdom of Qi … "At this point, her whole body froze. She slowly turned to look at Niu Youdao and asked," The warhorse you want to rob has something to do with Lady Boss Su Zhao among the clouds? "
Niu Youdao was also stunned. He slowly turned to her side and asked, "Why do you think it has something to do with Su Zhao?"
He did not say it wasn't! However, in reality, even he did not know if Su Zhao had anything to do with the warhorses. He did not know how this woman could associate the warhorses with Su Zhao.
Guan Fangyi: "You drew Su Zhao's portrait earlier."
Niu Youdao expressed his doubt. "What does drawing her portrait have to do with the warhorses?"
Guan Fangyi: "There is a place in the Kingdom of Qi called Cangyin Mountain. It is a rare gathering place for ghost cultivators. The person in charge of Cangyin Mountain is Ghost Mother. In the early years, one of the subordinates of the King of the West Courtyard, Hao Yun Sheng, pursued me. In order to show that he was Hao Yun Sheng's confidant, he told me a secret. However, this guy was unlucky. As soon as he left my place, he was arrested by the imperial court. I don't know what he did. At that time, a few of Hao Yun Sheng's subordinates were arrested at the same time. He was only one of them. However, before he could be interrogated, he fell ill and died. His death was a little strange. Therefore, I remember what he told me at that time very clearly. "
Niu Youdao: "What secret did he tell you? Is it related to Ghost Mother? "
Guan Fangyi: "Ghost Mother still has a family in the world. She has a great-grandson named Zhang Xingrui. He is an official under the King of the West Courtyard, Hao Yun Sheng. According to that guy, there are only a few people who know this secret. After hearing what he said, I happened to be one of them. "
"The King of the West Courtyard, Hao Yun Sheng …" Niu Youdao frowned and muttered.
Guan Fangyi continued: "Su Zhao is Hao Yun Sheng's exclusive property. She should know Zhang Xingrui. Now that a bunch of ghost cultivators have appeared, and you deliberately drew Su Zhao's portrait, can the two have nothing to do with each other?"
Niu Youdao paced back and forth in the room. This news was far beyond his expectations. Could it really be such a coincidence that the lady boss, Su Zhao, who had a relationship with Yuan Gang, was that Big Sister Zhao?
He was only worried about Yuan Gang's safety. Just in case, he wanted Su Zhao's portrait to be verified by Chen Guishuo. Now, it seemed that it really matched. Now, he only needed Chen Guishuo's reply to make the final confirmation.
What was Su Zhao's purpose in getting close to Yuan Gang? He was extremely worried about Yuan Gang's safety.
But after thinking about it, he felt that it was not right. If she really knew the true identity of Yuan Gang, who was hiding here, she would naturally know the relationship between him and Yuan Gang. That woman could not be so stupid. Knowing that it might arouse his suspicion, she still publicly contacted Yuan Gang? Shao Pingbo wouldn't be so stupid!
He couldn't figure it out. This matter made him a little confused!
Guan Fangyi saw that he didn't seem to be exposed by her. She couldn't help but wonder: "Is my guess wrong?"
Niu Youdao, who was pacing back and forth, walked up to her, "It seems that getting you is better than I thought!"
Guan Fangyi rolled her eyes.
Niu Youdao leaned forward slightly, "That Zhang Xingrui, I want to know his specific situation. The more details, the better …"
Outside the courtyard, Linghu Qiu came with Hong Xiu, but they were stopped at the door.
Linghu Qiu asked the guard, "What do you mean? Is it Hongniang who doesn't want to see me, or Niu Youdao who doesn't want to see me? "
The guard replied: "Boss and Master are still in the room. They haven't gotten up yet. It's not appropriate to disturb them. Mr. Linghu understands."
"…" Linghu Qiu tilted his head and looked at the sun that had already climbed high. He was speechless. Then he looked at the courtyard. He really wanted to ask how excessive the couple had been last night. Why hadn't they gotten up yet?
"Ridiculous!" Linghu Qiu turned around and muttered. He stood there with his hands behind his back, waiting at the door.
The key was that he didn't know what the couple was doing now. It was indeed not appropriate to disturb them.
After waiting for a while, Niu Youdao's voice came from behind, "Second Brother, why are you standing at the door?"
Linghu Qiu and Hong Xiu looked back and saw Niu Youdao and Guan Fangyi walking together. The latter even held the former's arm intimately and accompanied them with a smile.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the relationship between the two was obviously not ordinary after last night. They were just short of hugging each other in public, which was offensive!
"Oh, of course I'm waiting for you." Linghu Qiu laughed and then asked jokingly, "Did you two have a good time last night?"
Niu Youdao smiled and said nothing.
"Go away!" Guan Fangyi snorted at Linghu Qiu and then looked back at Niu Youdao with a tender look.
This scene gave the master and servant who were waiting outside the door goosebumps.
Guan Fangyi turned back and said to the man who came over, "Old Six, from today on, Brother Niu needs a few more people to accompany and protect him. All of Mister's food and drink must be carefully checked. Don't give anyone a chance to tamper with him."
Linghu Qiu and Hong Xiu subconsciously looked at each other.
"Yes!" The man answered.
Linghu Qiu asked tentatively, "Hong Niang, what do you mean by saying it's so serious?"
Niu Youdao also touched his nose, "Hong Niang, are you trying to stare at me?"
"What are you staring at? Whether you believe it or not, I still say that Jin Wang is a vindictive villain. He won't let you off easily." Guan Fangyi's eyes fell on Niu Youdao's face, and she looked affectionate again, "I don't want to see anything happen to you. You promised to marry me!"
Linghu Qiu and Hong Xiu were shocked.
Niu Youdao was also a little dumbfounded. He stared at this woman and really wanted to ask her, "When did I say I would marry you?" This was not what they had agreed on!
But it was not good to deny it in public!
"I'm going to accompany him to Fufang Garden so that he won't be unfamiliar with his own home. Do you want to go together?" Guan Fangyi smiled happily and asked Linghu Qiu.
Linghu Qiu laughed dryly and said, "You can go. We won't disturb you."
