Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 49 I went to college, I'm not easy to fool

He Songling cursed in his heart, this Tang Bingwen really lived up to his reputation, he was really a cunning person.

The old man kept saying that he wanted to destroy his entire family, admitted that he was inferior, and talked about the eternal generations, but he never mentioned the initial point of the conflict.

If it were someone else, they might have been fooled by Tang Bingwen's magnanimous appearance. But who was He Songling? He went to college! Do you know what value that has in this era?
Blind me?

Go to your grandma!

"Alas, I can't bring it up." Tang Bingwen sighed upon hearing this. "Mr. Jiuxu also knows that we in the Tang Sect are a group of businessmen. We will do everything we can to get an order. This has been the reputation of the Tang Sect for hundreds of years."

"So, it is your intention to kill me, old head of the sect?"

"No, not to mention me, anyone of Gao Yingcai or Tang Mingyi's status would not accept this business after taking a look at it. This is simply not a suitable business. If we saw it, we would definitely refuse it."

Tang Bingwen spread his hands and said, "But the Tang Clan has existed for hundreds of years. The country is so big that it is impossible for all of them to come to our headquarters in the mountains to place orders. The employers would be exhausted. In places where our tentacles can reach, there are offices disguised as shops doing business. If you answer the codeword correctly, you can receive them. But this branch of the Tang Clan is also the Tang Clan."

"I know that the Tang Sect never stops until one dies." He Songling nodded to affirm their professional ethics. "But the one called Tang Tingfeng is already dead. Shouldn't we stop now?"

"Since Mr. Jiuxu is here today, I will make an exception and tell you what the task is that our employer has given us."

Tang Bingwen dipped his tongue in tea and wrote a few words, "He Songling of Sanyi Sect, dead."

After Tang Bingwen finished writing, he wiped the writing on the table. "The employer wants your life, not just a few of us killers. He gave a lot of money, at least enough to send two killers out."

"Even you, the old gatekeeper, can't stop?" He Songling looked at Tang Bingwen with contempt, as if to say "you are old and useless".

But what kind of person is Tang Bingwen? He is old, has experienced countless things, and has a mind as firm as iron. He Songling's tricks can only instigate young people like Lu Ci and Wang Ai.

"The sect rules are naturally more important than the sect leader. If the sect leader could change the rules at will, the Tang sect would not have survived the past few hundred years." Tang Bingwen shook his head slightly and easily resolved He Songling's provocation.

"To be honest, it's possible that the Tang Sect will stop the mission. First, as I said just now, the money given by the employer is enough to send at least two more assassins. The money given is not enough to cover the compensation. We, the Tang Sect, admit defeat and admit that we are not capable enough. We will not accept the balance and the mission will be stopped."

Tang Bingwen held up four fingers and said, "This situation has only occurred four times in the past hundred years. If it continues, I'm afraid it will happen to you for the fifth time."

"I understand." He Songling nodded. The Tang Sect has been a famous brand for hundreds of years, so it is rare for them to admit defeat due to lack of ability. He extended his hand and made a "please" gesture, "The old sect leader didn't succeed in the fifth battle when he lost this eye when he was young, so I naturally don't want to destroy the Tang Sect's golden sign. But I am narrow-minded and I value my life very much. I don't want to give my life to the Tang Sect in the end because of my appreciation of talent. You can talk about the second situation."

As soon as He Songling said this, the three elders of the Tang Clan in front of him were all surprised. Tang Jiaren and Master Hong looked at Tang Bingwen, and even Tang Bingwen himself looked surprised.

After a long while, he chuckled twice and said, "Mr. Jiuxu is well-informed. He can even find out about such trivial matters from such a long time ago."

This was an absolute secret for Tang Bingwen, a scar he could not bear to reveal in his lifetime, and a warning monument for him to respect the sect rules and life. He originally thought that this matter would be buried in history forever as time passed, but he did not expect that it would be spoken out again by a young man today.

"If you want to come to the Tang Sect, you naturally have to have some understanding of the old sect leader. Doesn't the Tang Sect also have my information?" He Songling was alert. He was going to use this incident to shake Tang Bingwen's defense, but there was also the danger of angering him. He was concentrating. As long as the three of them made the slightest move, even if it was just unusual silence, he would use his escape method to slip away.

Fortunately, Tang Bingwen was indeed strong in his heart. He seemed to know He Songling's fear, and continued without stopping: "Let's not talk about the young things. The second point is not easy either. If you are a hero who stands on the right and wrong of the nation, and your opponent places an order on you, even if you accept it at the time, you will have to terminate it if you find out later, and the deposit will not be refunded."

"I once killed a group of Qing soldiers who were killing innocent people and claiming credit for it. I also killed a bad gentry who oppressed the people in Echeng and took some of his silver to distribute to the people. Does this count?" He Songling counted his achievements.

"I'm afraid it's still a little short." As expected, Tang Bingwen failed to meet the standard for giving up the sect rules. "Let me give you a few examples. For example, in the previous dynasty, the Qing court sent people to us to assassinate Tan Sitong, the leader of the Six Gentlemen. For example, Emperor Yuan wanted to assassinate Mr. Song Dunchu. We unilaterally stopped these plans after finding out the situation."

"Okay, okay. So, two more people from the Tang Sect must die in my hands?" He Songling's voice began to turn cold.

"Don't worry, Mr. Jiuxu. The sect rules cannot be broken, but they can be manipulated." Tang Bingwen laughed and said, "Since you know about what happened to me back then, I will tell you directly. It took me several years to kill that senior. The employer did not give a time limit, so I can send the person out, but the assassination time is not right, so I will just keep dragging it out. Just think of it as someone from our Tang Sect protecting you."

"Forget it." He Songling refused decisively. "If a Tang Sect assassin keeps an eye on me for several years, I will definitely suffer from neurasthenia. Even if he can resist not attacking me, I can't resist attacking him."

Are you kidding? Being watched by the Tang Sect assassins for several years, or even more than ten years, until the era of the turbulent Shenzhou arrives, what's the difference between this and being in prison? Of all He Songling's plans, biopharmaceuticals, arms trading, rebellion against the gods, and cracking the triple level, which one is not top secret? Which one does not require peace of mind?

It was annoying to have Lao Zuo following him, let alone having a few Tang Sect assassins following him.

"Then we can only say that we are powerless." Tang Bingwen smiled calmly, "This is the greatest sincerity that our Tang Sect can show to Mr. Jiuxu. If Mr. Jiuxu can't help himself and kills the enemy when his life is threatened, the Tang Sect will have nothing to say."

"Okay, okay, you guys in the Tang Sect are determined to fight me to the death, right?" He Songling's eyes showed a hint of cruelty, "Then don't blame me. I heard that you guys in the Tang Sect have three iron laws, right?"
