Travel Notes of Tianlong
Chapter 14
"Be more agile!"A few people were noisily moving some tables, chairs and benches,"Master Jin will be here soon. If the food and wine haven't been prepared, let's see who he can spare!" Tang Hao was woken up by these noises in a daze. At this moment, his hands were tied behind his back and tied to an iron stake,"Oh? You kid woke up on your own, which saves me from having to do anything. Master Jin will come to greet you soon, hehe!"The leader looked at him with a wicked smile.
As for why Tang Hao was tied to this place, it has to start a few days ago.
"Mr. Villa owner, my little lady, thank you for your life-saving grace." Before leaving, Tang Xiliu invited Tang Hao to have a private conversation,"You're welcome, it's just a small effort, and the girl's disaster this time cannot be said to have nothing to do with me.."If Tang Hao hadn't investigated certain things, the people behind him would not have had murderous intentions towards Tang Xiliu.
"Hahaha, life and death are fateful, and the slave family is destined to die. Fortunately, the village owner came to the rescue in time, and we can be considered even."Tang Xiliu, who has regained his composure, is not polite.
"It's just that the slave family wants to make a three-part agreement with the owner of the village. First, please forgive the slave family for being unreasonable. Even if they devote themselves to the master's village, there is no possibility of betraying our master Tang Yifei." Tang Xiliu knew very well that this assassination could never be caused by Master Yifei. The order was issued,"If the owner of the village cannot agree to this matter, the slave family will immediately commit suicide and will not cause any trouble to the owner.""
"It doesn't matter, I didn't save you for any reward in the first place. As for the Tang Sect matter, it was just a fight between Tang Guanfeng and Tang Yifei. It might be possible to help him fight, but I don't want to do such a thing as gathering information."Originally, they should let them solve their own affairs. If Tang Guanfeng can't handle this kind of thing, then this person is nothing more than a mediocre person.
"Thank you for your understanding, Master." Tang Xiliu saw that the other party did not mean to embarrass him, and he put aside most of his uneasiness,"Secondly, if there is an opportunity in the future, the slave family would like to return to the Tang Sect again." After all, she did not want to abandon the sect,"Of course. The girl is a guest of my villa. She can come and go as she pleases, and the owner of the villa will never stop her."Tang Hao has never had the idea of starting a sect. Except for Xiao Xi and Jing Kui, who were his attendants when he entered the game, the rest, including Atu Zai, as long as they are willing, no matter what choice they make, it will be theirs. freedom of
"Thirdly, I would like to ask for something belonging to the owner of the village, is that possible?"I fell in love at first sight and met again. Although Tang Xiliu knew that his identity was very different from that of Tang Hao, he still couldn't restrain the throbbing in his heart. Especially when Tang Hao pulled him back from the critical moment of life and death, he even more did not hide his love." This is easy to handle, but I don’t have anything, and I never wear any accessories." Tang Hao thought about it and didn’t know what to give. To be honest, if he simply married Tang Xiliu in reality, the Tang family would not dare to do more. It's easy to say, but the helplessness in the game is the word"no", so we can only treat her as a confidante.
"Oh, by the way, I thought of something," Tang Hao had an idea. Over the years, he had collected many high-grade treasures, which would be a perfect gift."I wonder if the girl is interested in music?"Thinking that Tang Xiliu usually ran a teahouse, people in this elegant place should be familiar with music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
"The Nu family has learned music since childhood, and the one they are good at is playing the piano. If there is an opportunity in the future, I would like to present a song to the owner of the village."The Tang Sect has always cultivated disciples in an eclectic way. What's more, they have already been involved in various fields since their family has a big business. It is not special for the Tang Sect's disciples to be versatile.
"That's easy." Tang Hao smiled knowingly, and then took out a Guqin from the inventory,"This is the Phoenix Jiaowei Qin that I got when I traveled to Tubo. Since the girl is a music lover, it must be considered a return. It's his master."It is a high-end masterpiece as soon as it is sold. If this piano is placed at any auction in the capital, it will definitely cause a sensation in the whole city. At this moment, it was given away by Tang Hao as a gift.
"Give me such a precious thing?"Tang Xiliu originally only wanted something like a jade pendant or a fan, but she didn't expect that the other party directly gave her a world-famous treasure,"Isn't it a beautiful thing to pair a guqin with a beautiful woman?"Tang Hao smiled and handed over the Phoenix Jiaowei Qin.
"Oh, by the way, the girl uses a sword, and this Yaoyue is also given to you." Tang Hao knew that Tang Xiliu was good at using soft swords, so he specially chose a weapon that she was used to.
"Hehehe, you are an enemy, do you really want the slave family to never forget you again?"Tang Xiliu did not refuse. He took out the soft sword from his waist and replaced it with the sword that he had just obtained Yaoyue. However, there was a blush on his face. In her opinion, she felt like she was surrounded by Tang Hao all the time.
"The slave family wants to give this fallen cherry back to the owner of the village, and hopes that the owner will accept it."Tang Xiliu's Luo Ying was also made by a skilled craftsman specializing in casting in the Tang Sect. Although it is definitely not as good as the Yaoyue given by Tang Hao, it is her way of expressing her feelings, and it does not depend on the quality of the things she gave.
"Thank you girl, I'm welcome."Tang Hao doesn't use weapons very much, but he won't refuse others' kindness.
"It's getting late, the poison on your body should be cured, so let's set off early," Tang Xiliu was poisoned by the killer Tang Bufang before, and the power of the Nine Turns of Resurrection Pill temporarily suppressed part of it, but after all, it was a life-saving medicine, wasn't it? Antidote, Tang Hao took them away and took the time to teach Xue Qing how to use the Five Poison Mind Techniques to detoxify others.
Now Tang Xiliu is completely fine,"The slave family will go to the villa first and wait for the owner to come back!""Although she admired Tang Hao, she clearly understood the priorities. After saluting Tang Hao again, she drifted away and left in the direction of Fengyi Villa.
"Master, can we go?"Xue Qing came over after seeing Tang Xiliu leaving.
"Go back, let's go to that pastry shop together tomorrow and see what we can find."Tang Hao nodded.
At noon the next day, Tang Hao took Xue Qing to Sun Ji Pastry Shop again,"Yo! Two guests! What would you like to order?"The store clerk still greeted him enthusiastically.
"Is your shopkeeper here? Tang Hao's goal was clear and he stopped dragging his feet,"What does the guest want to see the shopkeeper for?""The guy was a little puzzled,"Oh, introduced by a friend, look..." Tang Hao took out the iron bell that Tang Xiliu had given him as a token before.
"Please wait a moment, both of you."Seeing that the visitor had other purposes, the waiter lowered his voice and said something, then called another waiter and took Tang Hao and Tang Hao to a room behind the shop.
""You two, please have some tea." The man skillfully made a pot of tea and poured it for the two of them."The shopkeeper will be here in a moment.""Then he withdrew.
"Master, why is this place still so mysterious?" Xue Qing said as she took a dip in the tea and found that there was no sign of poisoning.
"Those who engage in life-threatening activities must deal with these things," Tang Hao calmly accepted the tea cup handed over by sister Xue Qing.
After a while, the pastry shop owner appeared outside the door,"Two distinguished guests"I'm here, I apologize for the delay in greeting you." Then he knocked on the door lightly a few times and said,"Please come in.""After getting Tang Hao's reply, the man entered the room.
"My surname is Sun, and I specialize in handling difficult matters for my friends in the world. I wonder why you two are here?"Businessmen naturally have the way of talking to each other,"It turns out to be shopkeeper Sun, I have admired him for a long time," Tang Hao naturally had this set of polite words at his fingertips.
"I and my roommate have encountered some problems recently, and we have to rely on the care of shopkeeper Sun." Externally, Tang Hao and Xue Qing have always treated each other as brother and sister.
"Easy to say, easy to say. When your distinguished guest comes to my place, he is naturally here to take care of your business."The iron bell is not something that can be obtained casually. Since you have brought this thing, you don't need to beat around the bush, and shopkeeper Sun has no trouble. rambling
"Let me give you a brief introduction..."
Unexpectedly, there are many ways to a hidden killer hiring place. After shopkeeper Sun's introduction, Tang Hao secretly sighed. It turns out that killer hiring places like this are all over the country, and they are different depending on the target. There are various levels of killers for customers to choose from. Not only are the charges based on the killer level, but even the methods of assassination are different.
"I don't know who the guest's target is, whether he wants to cause an accident or directly assassinate him to give the other party a shock."When talking about counterpart business, shopkeeper Sun kept talking.
"Don't make too much noise, it's best to poison, the kind of poison that can't be traced," Tang Hao started to make nonsense.
When it comes to the use of poison, there are many sects and organizations in the world. Depending on the level of their methods, When it comes to ranking, of course the top choices are the Tang Clan in Central Sichuan and Gu Po in Southern Xinjiang, and Tang Hao’s goal is naturally to find out who the Tang Clan killer is here.
"According to the guest's request, the most suitable one should be the world-renowned Tang Sect," Shopkeeper Sun immediately pointed out what Tang Hao was most interested in.
"Well, the shopkeeper is right. I don't like to make too much noise. It's best to let the guy lose his life without knowing it. The price is easy to negotiate."After all, it's employment, so we must talk about money first. Tang Hao took out a gold ingot worth ten taels and put it on the table.
"oh! Guest officer, please be happy! Shopkeeper Sun's eyes widened when he saw the gold,"Let me think about who is the most suitable.""Even the disciples of the Tang Sect are divided into three, six, and nine grades. If they want to complete Tang Hao's"commission" and earn this money, they must carefully consider it. After thinking for a while, Shopkeeper Sun frowned. , to say that the one with the most skillful poisoning methods here is of course Tang Bufang, but that kid has not come back since he went out to do things yesterday, although this is also a common thing, and besides, Tang Bufang was directly assigned by the superiors to do this. Even his shopkeeper Sun can't interfere
"Um? What's the shopkeeper's problem?"Tang Hao saw the change in his expression and decided to go further.
"Hey hey hey, dear guest, unfortunately, the person who can meet your requirements is not here for the time being. I hope you can understand." Shopkeeper Sun smiled apologetically,"You also know that the business we do here is all undesirable work. In order to To ensure the privacy and safety of the distinguished guests, the brothers always communicate with each other through a single line when they go out to do business. The Tang Sect disciple happens to be away now. Can we wait for a few days?"Of course one ingot of gold is not enough to cover the cost of this transaction, but someone who can come up with this thing naturally doesn't care about money. Shopkeeper Sun is determined to win Tang Hao's"commission"
"I'm not in a hurry, but I just want to ask, how long do I have to wait?"Tang Hao still had the attitude of talking about business,"Dear guest, don't worry, it will be very soon, very soon, our brothers are very quick, as long as we are not far away, we can solve it in ten days and a half months."Shopkeeper Sun knew very well that it wouldn't take long for Tang Bufang to come back from doing business, but before signing the contract, he was not allowed to talk nonsense, so he left himself a sufficient buffer period.
"That's fine, I'll just wait," Tang Hao put on a slightly disappointed expression,"I wonder who offended the distinguished guest?"Shopkeeper Sun wants to get some more information out.
"That man is now in the largest inn in the capital." Tang Hao pretended to be mysterious and approached Shopkeeper Sun,"So, we must seize him without anyone noticing..." He made a throat-cutting gesture to his neck again.
"That's it." Shopkeeper Sun nodded,"No wonder the distinguished guest keeps a low profile."
"Who is this person?"The two chatted for a long time. Shopkeeper Sun still didn't know who the target was."Fengyi Villa Wufeng," Tang Hao reported his name.
"Um?"Hearing this name, Shopkeeper Sun was startled at first, then regained his composure,"Dear guest, this transaction is not cheap."If you want to kill the world-famous Master of Wufeng Village, you have to pay with your own life if you make a mistake. Only by spending a lot of money will anyone be willing to take the gamble."
"Money is not a problem," Tang Hao waved his hand and placed a few more gold ingots on the table.
"Hey hey hey, easy to talk, easy to say," Shopkeeper Sun, whose eyes widened when he saw Qian, rubbed his palms
"But these are not enough." Of course, the life of the dignified Wu Feng cannot be bought with just a few dozen taels of gold. Shopkeeper Sun's eyes were shining with greed.
"The shopkeeper told me the number," Tang Hao also became curious about how much his life was worth.
"Fifty thousand taels of gold, or five hundred thousand taels of silver, whatever is convenient for the distinguished guest."Shopkeeper Sun showed five fingers.
"It's fair." Tang Hao was quite satisfied after hearing this price. His wealth was accumulated through many years of gaming. This should not be regarded as common sense in the current gaming society.
"We will come here today, and the distinguished guest will come back in three days. Then we will make a written note and pay half first, and then pay the other half after the event is completed."Shopkeeper Sun is very excited because he is about to make the next big deal.
"Isn't that right?" Xue Qing, who had been silent for a long time, said,"If nothing is done, we have to pay half of the money first. What if you run away?"
"Hey hey hey, girl, our business is like this everywhere, if you can't accept it, then please hire someone else."In this regard, Shopkeeper Sun will not give in even a step.
"It doesn't matter." Tang Hao waved his hand towards Xue Qing,"Shopkeeper, don't blame me, my sister-in-law has little experience in the world and doesn't understand the rules."It's all a blank check anyway. How could Tang Hao really spend money to buy his own life?"
"Shopkeeper, please accept it." He took out a Jiaozi and handed it over. Everyone knows that gold, silver, ingots, and copper coins are inconvenient to carry because of their weight. Jiaozi is naturally the most suitable for large transactions.
When he saw the other party handed over a face value For a thousand taels of money, shopkeeper Sun was even more happy,"Who is this distinguished guest?""It's just that he didn't reach out to pick it up.
"The tea money given to the shopkeeper is not included in our business," Tang Hao didn't feel bad for only one thousand taels for bait. As they were talking, the income of the village was far more than this one thousand taels.
"The distinguished guest is really happy!"Shopkeeper Sun accepted it with satisfaction, and the thousand taels fell into his pocket.
Not long after the two left, shopkeeper Sun came to the door of a mansion, said hello to the doorman and walked straight in.
"Fourth Master, big deal." It turned out that he was looking for the so-called general manager from before.
"Um? What is Shopkeeper Sun looking for again?"The fourth master was sitting on the deck chair in the backyard and taking a nap.
After hearing this, shopkeeper Sun told the whole story. For him, if this deal is completed, it goes without saying that he can make a lot of money. Just kill him. Wu Feng's matter will be used to brag in the future.
Unexpectedly, the fourth master's face changed when he heard it,"Don't rush to accept this in advance. Let me discuss with Mr. Fei and Mr. Jin before making a decision."."
