There's something wrong with this assassin

Chapter 17

Xue Ling was a little surprised by He Ping's answer.

But it's kind of reasonable.

"By the way." Fang Bie said from the side at this time, "As for the reward of this mission, I apply to give this soft sword to Lin Xue for self-defense."

I heard Fang Bie mention this matter in the mountain temple before, but Xue Ling didn't pay much attention to it at that time, and it is very difficult to practice and master such strange weapons as soft swords, so Xue Ling In the end, Ling took it out as a token of killing Ning Huaiyuan and handed it to He Ping. Unexpectedly, Fang Bie mentioned it again in front of He Ping, and gave the soft sword to himself to use.

He Ping nodded: "Yes."

Xue Ling couldn't believe it: "Is it really possible?"

This soft sword looks very expensive.

"The capture of our assassin mission does not need to be handed over to the organization." He Ping said quietly: "After all, the stronger the enemy's strength and family background, the more difficult it will be for us to assassinate, so naturally we have to collect higher rewards."

Seeing Xue Ling's expression, He Ping continued to say calmly: "Of course, if some property is not suitable for our use, we can also donate it to the organization to obtain a certain amount of assassin points for use, or sell it on the black market to obtain a certain amount of money." Silver is used."

"By the way, how much silver does Ning Huaiyuan have?" He Ping asked.

"A rough count." Xue Ling said honestly: "The sum of broken silver and copper coins is about five taels, and the silver bills vary in size. The total seems to be less than 200 taels."

He Ping nodded. This wealth is certainly not all of Ning Huaiyuan's, but even so, it is not trivial.

Ordinary chivalrous warriors who walk the rivers and lakes can carry at most five or sixty taels of silver to be a hero. For someone like Ning Huaiyuan, he must have other income, and he can be regarded as a fat sheep.

"Do you have anything else to report?" He Ping asked.

Xue Ling thought for a while, then shook her head: "Not anymore."

He Ping nodded: "Then you can go, I have some things to discuss with Fang alone."

Xue Ling glanced at Fang Bie, nodded, turned and walked out of the room, leaving only the master and apprentice pair on the second floor.

It wasn't until Xue Ling's footsteps could no longer be heard that He Ping looked at Fang Bie: "How do you feel about Lin Xue's performance?"

Fang Bie nodded: "As a bee wing, she is qualified both in terms of psychological quality and performance."

"But what?" He Ping asked.

"But I'm afraid she's not just a bee wing." Fang Bie smiled and said, "But I don't care what she is."

"As long as she doesn't do anything to endanger us, I'll act as if nothing happened."

He Ping sighed, "It's not like you."

"That's right." Fang Bie nodded, "But to save someone, you have to save to the end."

"She wants to live, so there is a place in this world where she can live."

He Ping nodded, then looked at Fang Bie: "How is Ning Huaiyuan's kung fu?"

"Kungfu is very good, so-so has the strength of a third-rank master, enough to be in the top [-] of the Huashan School." Fang Bie said: "However, he has learned a lot, and many martial arts are not well-known. I doubt that he is as good as the Western Region Demon Gate." It has something to do with it, if I kill him, I'm afraid the Demon Sect will come to investigate."

"Did you leave any clues?" He Ping asked with a frown.

"There should be no clues, but Ning Huaiyuan died in the boundary of Luocheng, which cannot be concealed." Fang Bie said: "However, I can't stop completing this task just because he was involved in a lot. In short, I will do my best. gone."

The two faced each other and were silent for a moment.

He Ping continued to ask: "How about Ning Huaiyuan's sword?"

"The swordsmanship is so-so, it doesn't help my sword much, but I still try to check it twice to make sure I haven't missed it." Fang Bie said.

He Ping nodded: "The first mission, how do you feel?"

"Easier than imagined." Fang Bie said.

"You've always been too cautious." He Ping shook her head and said.

Fang Bie also shook his head: "You can't be too cautious, this is something you taught me, Sister Ping."

"and."

"I want to live."

"I don't want to die."

"So, in order to survive, I have to be better prepared anytime, anywhere to deal with every crisis."

He Ping looked at him: "After all, there will be crises in this world that you cannot deal with."

"Then I'll try to become stronger." Fang Bie said with a smile.

It was drizzling outside the window, and dark clouds shrouded the bright moon.

……

……

Huashan Mountain in Shaanxi Province has evergreen pines and cypresses and rugged mountain roads.

Yue Pingshan looked at the Huashan Mountain Road, which was already close in front of him, and he couldn't help feeling relieved.

Although he didn't see Ning Huaiyuan's body, what happened that night gave him reason to believe that Ning Huaiyuan would definitely die.

Otherwise, he himself would have no reason to survive.

But how to explain to his teacher and fellow disciples when he went back, he also thought about it all the way, now Huashan is in front of him, even if Yuepingshan has a lot of experience in traveling the rivers and lakes, he also feels like a wanderer returning to his hometown at this time.

But at this moment, a galloping white horse galloped ahead, pulled the horse in front of Yue Pingshan, turned over and jumped off: "Junior Brother Hou Yongyan has seen Senior Brother Yue, and Senior Brother Yue has done a great job in chasing and killing traitors all the way, so I am here to welcome you." Senior brother is triumphant."

Yue Pingshan smiled, stretched out his hand to ask Hou Yongyan for a bag of water, drank most of the bag in one go, and then put down the water bag: "I have a lot of stories on this journey, but more details will have to wait until we go up the mountain." Master Bingming, I also ask my junior brother to take me for a ride."

On that day, news came from Huashan that Ning Huaiyuan, a disciple of the traitorous sect, was killed by Yue Pingshan and a hidden beggar hero in the temple of Luocheng Mountain. Thoughts and plots were also made public to the world. For a while, everyone in the decent sects was in danger, for fear that their own sects would also be mixed with such treacherous people.

Ten days later, the hive's Jianghu list was updated, and the beggar hero Gou Zazhong was ranked No. 70 and [-] in the second list of the Jianghu list, and the note was a third-rank master.

……

……

But in the Western Regions, thousands of miles away, the news spread more slowly.

On the Gobi Desert swept by wind and sand, there is an oasis with fertile water and grass, which is a side hall of the Demon Gate of the Western Regions.

In the side hall, the miserable old man twisted the paper in his hand into a line, shot it out, and shot it directly to the opposite side. The paper made of mulberry paper was as strong as steel after being injected with deep internal force, and it could be completely submerged into the brass pillar.

"Trash!" "Bold!" "Unreasonable!"

The miserable old man with long eyebrows like snow repeatedly cursed, and his voice echoed in the side hall.

At this time, a delicate voice sounded softly: "Master, what news made you so furious?"

"Could it be that my cheap senior brother caused trouble again in the Central Plains?"

The miserable old man looked at the graceful woman in the shadow, and said with a sneer, "He can't cause trouble anymore, because he's already dead."
