Chapter 53: Killer(1/2)
The killer is the best portrayal of the cruelty and ruthlessness. No matter how Changfeng thinks, he will not have anything to do with this profession, but he caught up with it. Lou Wuyun promised to exchange him for one person for the lives of Lin Fu and two servants, and offered the conditions to let Changfeng do three things for her. Changfeng had to agree. Three people for three things should not be considered harsh conditions. Even if Changfeng didn't want to agree, he might not be able to do it. He was still on the other person's territory. No matter how high his martial arts skills were, he could not defeat his thousands of troops.
The first condition surprised him greatly. Lou Wuyun asked him to kill someone. This person was the leader of the Netherworld Sect, the third among the top ten masters in Fengyun. Changfeng knew almost nothing about this person's situation. This person is of the same generation as his master. It must be very dangerous to assassinate this person. He was not sure about this matter at all. If he wanted to complete this task, he had the only way to assassinate it. This was the best way he thought of.
"Princess, please invite Mr. Changfeng to the front hall to discuss things." A crisp female voice came from outside Changfeng's door. With his amazing recognition ability, this was the voice of Xiao Tao, the most favored maid next to Lou Wuyun.
"Please give back to the princess, Changfeng is not in good condition, but he still won't go." Changfeng didn't have a good impression of Lou Wuyun now, and second, he didn't want to fall into it too deeply, and it would be difficult for him to get out of here.
"But the princess is already waiting in the front hall. Can you see me? It's not too late to come back to rest, otherwise the maid will definitely be punished." The outside of the door was full of emotions and almost cried.
Changfeng thought for a while, whether it was true or false, it would be okay to go and come back soon. There was no need to implicate the person who sent the message to him to be punished, so he stood up and opened the door and said, "You lead the way ahead."
Changfeng's sharp eyes were already paying attention to Xiaotao's expression, and he found that there was no trace of tears at the corners of her eyes, and the smile at the corners of her mouth had not been completely hidden. I thought he was pretending to be fooled by him, but he had already said that he wanted to go back on his word, and it was in vain to want to regret it. Anyway, it was just a scene.
There were many people gathered in the front hall. Apart from Qin Qiu, Changfeng knew only two masters and servants. He didn't know anything else. He was surprised. Lou Wuyun suddenly walked down his seat and grabbed Changfeng's hand. The weak and boneless little hand gently grabbed Changfeng's big hand, the smooth and tender flesh. This feeling would only appear in his heart when he held hands with Cao Ruifeng. The ecstasy feeling spread involuntarily in his body. He also stopped thinking for a while and let Lou Wuyun pull him forward. The people around him were more surprised than him. Who is this person? The princess is so close to him. It must be the elder of the princess, otherwise the princess would definitely not have been like this.
Only a few steps from the door to the inner hall, Changfeng felt as if he had been walking for a long century. After Lou Wuyun sat on the leader's seat and put down his hand that was tightly held by Changfeng, Changfeng recovered.
Lou Wuyun sat down at the first place, immediately changed her face, looked at everyone in the hall with a serious expression and said, "Today, I am summoning all the generals to discuss with you for the uprising, and by the way, we will introduce to you our new military commander, Mr. Feng."
Changfeng shot a surprised look at Lou Wuyun. When did he agree to join them and he wanted to be a military advisor? What does this girl want to do to herself?
As soon as he finished speaking, Lou Wuyun stood up from her position, walked down, and held Changfeng's hand again and said to everyone: "This is our new military advisor. In the future, generals should listen to the military advisor's teachings more. Do you understand?"
Perhaps because of his extreme blind trust in Lou Wuyun, all the generals said in unison: "Subordinates must obey the teachings of the military advisors."
"I'm here, I'll give you a seat to the new military commander Mr. Feng." Lou Wuyun turned around and walked to her position.
Soon someone brought a chair behind Changfeng. Lou Wuyun signaled Changfeng to sit down. So many generals were standing, but he had a chair to sit on. What the hell is Lou Wuyun doing?
Since you asked me to sit, I would sit down, what was it afraid of, so I just sat down, without saying a humble word. The generals thought that he was really capable and were so arrogant, and there was no dissatisfaction. There was only a hint of undetectable smile on the corner of Lou Wuyun's mouth.
"Today, Mr. Changfeng joined us and discussed the plan, and we will definitely be able to regain Loulan and rescue the people living in dire straits. Do you think so?" Lou Wuyun incited his subordinates and received a lot of approval, and Lou Wuyun was quite satisfied.
"What do the generals think is the biggest obstacle to our uprising?" Lou Wuyun asked intentionally.
"Money, food and weapons."
"War Horses and Soldiers."
...
Lou Wuyun shook her head and said no: "The money, grain and weapons are enough to deal with by the Lin family. The war horses are a bit lacking, but they are not the main ones. The soldiers can be recruited. These are not our fatal threats."
"It's the Ghost Face True Lord, Princess, the leader of the Netherworld Sect." Qin Qiu went out and said, obviously he was planning to do something. Changfeng looked at the dispute in the hall calmly and said.
"How can I see it?" Lou Wuyun asked with a smile.
"The leader of the Netherworld Sect, Ghost Face, is the current national master of Loulan. The princess's elder brother is right-hand man. This man has reached the realm of martial arts, no one can match his strategy, and there are many disciples under him. Lou Wuxin had his support before he could control half of Loulan's current world. Without this person, Lou Wuxin would have been annexed by Lou Wutian long ago. If this person was not eliminated, it would be difficult for us to accomplish anything!" Qin Qiu explained to the generals in the hall.
"Then is there a way to get rid of this person?" Lou Wuyun asked the generals.
Suddenly there was silence. The leader of the Netherworld Sect, Ghost Face True Lord, was simply the incarnation of a god in the martial arts world in Loulan. No one has the courage and confidence to touch a hair, let alone kill him.
Lou Wuyun was angry and slapped the table and said a few times: "Isn't anyone rid of this person for this princess?"
"Princess forgives the crime, and his subordinates are powerless." The generals in the hall knelt down and said.
"Okay, okay, get up, you all, get up." Lou Wuyun calmed down her excited emotions and said.
Changfeng became more and more sure that Lou Wuyun was doing a show. He clearly handed over the task of assassinating the leader of the Netherworld Sect, the Ghost Face True Lord, and he still had to do this on purpose in front of the generals. Is she trying to ask herself to take the initiative or have another purpose?
"What are the military advisors' ideas?" Lou Wuyun turned the spear head toward Changfeng, who had not spoken, obediently sitting on the side.
"This, Changfeng just arrived here, everything is not very familiar. He can't think of any solution for a while. Please forgive me, the princess." Changfeng blocked him back.
"That's how even the military advisor can do nothing. Then let go of the matter of raising a military force for the time being, and then talk about it when you think of a solution." Lou Wuyun glanced at Changfeng and said to the generals.
What does this mean? Did you think of a solution? You have to stay on this small island all your life? Changfeng heard something in Lou Wuyun's words.
This little woman is really scheming and doesn't say anything clearly. She wants to let you understand what she means. When you say it yourself, it is not her forcing you. Since it is voluntary, it doesn't matter to her.
Changfeng is not a fool, so he deliberately pretends not to know and doesn’t say anything. What should you do? You should beg me for this matter. How could I just stick it on so easily? Wasn’t that slap myself in the face?
As a result, everyone left unhappily this time and went back.
"Mr. Changfeng, please stay. I have something to discuss with you." Lou Wuyun was still unwilling to let Changfeng disturb the situation he carefully arranged, so she left him alone.
"What's wrong with the unknown princess leaving Changfeng?" Changfeng and others said after leaving.
"I know that Mr. Wuyun's cleverness is seen through Wuyun's little cleverness, why don't he accommodate Wuyun? Anyway, Mr. Wuyun has agreed to that matter long ago, why didn't he agree on the spot?" Lou Wuyun was a little surprised.
"This is the first thing the princess asked to do. If I tell it in public, wouldn't it be Changfeng's voluntary? At that time, the princess can use this as a reason to deny it and refuse to admit it. Then wouldn't Changfeng suffer this loss?" Changfeng smiled, "Also, the princess gave herself a military advisor without Changfeng's consent. Changfeng would just act as the second thing the princess asked Changfeng to do, but Changfeng could not do it for that long, at most a year, how about it?"
"It seems that this princess' decision on a whim is so correct. Mr. is indeed extremely smart and talented." Lou Wuyun smiled awkwardly, "But why should she be so aggressive?"
"The princess is too much. Changfeng is just a civilian, not as powerful as the princess said." Changfeng smiled modestly.
"Can the military advisor enjoy the moon with this princess tonight?" Lou Wuyun suddenly invited Changfeng.
"Is this the last thing the princess asked me to do?" Changfeng followed with a smile.
"Sir, you really know how to hit snakes and sticks." Lou Wuyun immediately smiled.
"In a dangerous place, Changfeng must be too scrupulous!" Changfeng sighed and raised his legs and walked out.
"Wuyun is still waiting for sir tonight?" Lou Wuyun asked from behind.
"If the prince is willing, then wait." Changfeng said without looking back.
Lou Wuyun said with a happy look on her face: "Will the sir come?"
"Maybe." The sound has gone away and is almost inaudible.
"Princess, why are you so polite to this person? He is both an official and a moon-watching person? What's better about him?" Xiao Tao couldn't help asking.
"Little girl, what do you know? His martial arts may only be able to win by this princess's master, at least one step beyond a thousand moves. Unfortunately, my master has driven me out of the sect and it is impossible for me to help me. Now he can only rely on him to resist the leader of the Netherworld Sect. The key to success or failure is on him." Lou Wuyun explained that Changfeng's sword technique that night had already reflected the terrifying impression in her mind.
"Then we can invite other experts, why do we have to invite this weird guy?" Xiao Tao said in confusion.
"If you invite others, how much is the price of this prince and how much face it can be for you to invite you?" Lou Wuyun scolded.
"I know I'm wrong." Xiaotao said panic, afraid that the princess would punish her when she was angry.
"It's good to know. If you don't know, don't ask too much in the future." Lou Wuyun still liked this little maid very much, and her voice couldn't help but suppress her voice.
"Will that weird guy tonight..." Xiao Tao suddenly saw Lou Wuyun's stern look, hurriedly swallowed the words into her stomach, and looked down and never dared to look at her again.
"Give me orders and hold a drink in the back garden tonight." Lou Wuyun was very satisfied with Xiao Tao's current performance and ordered her.
"I understand, princess, maid will prepare immediately."
Today in the front hall, Lou Wuyun suffered a small loss and was held by Changfeng in words. He forced Lou Wuyun to act as a military advisor as the second thing he did for her. It was a small victory. Lou Wuyun's ability to adapt to changes made Changfeng secretly shocked. In his eyes, only the mother of Wu Yue could match. He had decades of experience, but Lou Wuyun was only 28 years old. There are probably fewer people in the world today. One day, there may be another Lin Yunfang.
What is the purpose of this Lou Wuyun inviting him to watch the moon tonight? Do you want to win a game back and go? Or don’t go, anyway, I didn’t promise her that she would definitely go back. Not going is not rude. Going is afraid of another trap. Although Changfeng is a brave person and is not afraid of any difficulties and obstacles, he is helping others rebel. Some things he can’t fall too deeply into, and it will be difficult to turn back at that time.
The servant still brought him supper, but he didn't stop giving it because the princess invited him to drink and enjoy the moon. It seemed that Lou Wuyun had no intention of letting Changfeng starve and forced him to go to the meeting. Changfeng's doubts were relieved a lot, and he was still a little undecided. He still couldn't make a decision between making choices. After dinner, he lay on the bed and thought hard for half an hour, and finally made up his mind to meet the princess who had lost his country alone for a while.
Changfeng opened the door and walked out, and found that Lou Wuyun's maid Xiao Tao was standing outside the door. Changfeng asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"
"The maid was sent by the princess to lead the way for the husband." Xiao Tao replied, "Please ask for a military advisor!"
It must be because I was too confused just now that I didn’t even notice it in front of the door of my room. This is a fatal mistake, so I will be more cautious in the future.
"How did your princess know that Changfeng will definitely go?" Changfeng asked curiously. Could this princess really have the ability to predict the future?
This time, Xiaotao remembered Lou Wuyun's words firmly, not asking what shouldn't be asked, not saying what shouldn't be said, but responded lightly: "Xiaotao was just following the order of the master, and I don't know anything else. Sir can ask the princess himself."
"What a clever girl, she's very nervous. It seems that Lou Wuyun has spent a lot of effort to train these girls." Changfeng said in his heart, without saying a word, and silently followed the little Tao to the back garden.
"Sir, please sit down!" Lou Wuyun got up and said.
"Thank you for your kind invitation," Changfeng said.
"You guys go down, you don't need to serve here." Lou Wuyun talked to the four maids standing around, including Xiao Tao.
"Yes, princess." The four of them lowered their heads and left the pavilion.
Lou Wuyun personally filled the wine glass in front of Changfeng and said, "This is the fragrance of our traditional wine in Loulan, please taste it."
Changfeng smiled and picked up the wine glass and said, "The princess sent everyone away. Aren't you afraid that Changfeng will take the opportunity to attack and take the princess to his power to take the princess away from Fuguo Island?"
Lou Wuyun smiled sweetly, and she looked back and smiled charmingly. At this time, Lou Wuyun immediately had the identity of a leader who wanted to kill. Although Changfeng was favored by a beautiful beauty like Cao Ruifeng, his heart beat faster in the face of another kind of beautiful beauty, and his face turned slightly red. Lou Wuyun had masculine beauty during the day. At this time, Lou Wuyun reflected the true feminine aura of a woman. Although her smile was charming, her eyebrows were full of heroism. Such a woman really had little time. Unfortunately, she was too greedy, otherwise she would have been a weird woman. Fortunately, Changfeng was covered by a mask, otherwise he would have made a fool of her in front of her. Lou Wuyun drank a small sip of wine, with a graceful posture, with slender fingers as delicate as jade, and said, "Wuyun had long expected that Mr. would not do this, otherwise he would have sent everyone else here."
After Lou Wuyun put down the wine glass in his hand, Changfeng picked up his wine glass and said, "Then you can kill the princess. I believe that after killing the princess with his martial arts, there will be no difficulty leaving this Fuguo Island."
"Today is the day of reunion. Why do you always fight and kill? Isn't it too much to kill the scenery?" Lou Wuyun picked up the wine glass, smiled at Changfeng, and said to Changfeng.
"Is it August 15th?" Changfeng forgot all his life and then suddenly realized.
"Does sir really not know, or do you pretend not to know?" Lou Wuyunqi said. Such a shrewd person would forget his life. Is this considered a thousand worries of a wise man? There will be a mistake.
Then Changfeng's expression became dim. Although Lou Wuyun could not see Changfeng's face change on the surface, a faint trace of Changfeng's thoughts in his eyes must have touched the sadness in his heart.
"Does sir miss your relatives at home?" Lou Wuyun was also infected by this sorrow and couldn't help asking.
"Why did the princess ask that?" Changfeng had never seen this proud princess care about people.
"I saw a hint of sorrow in my eyes, so I couldn't help asking." Lou Wuyun said embarrassedly with a smile.
"Oh, Changfeng is alone, and the whole world is home, so how can there be any family?" Changfeng said in a depressed tone.
"I am alone, and I am also sympathetic to the sir." Lou Wuyun sighed. He originally wanted to use scheming to Changfeng, but now he is a lonely person like himself. He couldn't help but take his heart closer. This step is said to be Lou Wuyun's intentional or unintentional, and it is also the first time Lou Wuyun's mind has opened up. Although she has two brothers, they have never regarded this sister as a relative, and she never recognizes her two brothers, let alone once the war begins, she will become enemies.
The two of them were silent. Changfeng thought in his heart that if it weren't for Lin Qimeng, he might be drinking reunion wine with Brother Qi Lei and his beloved in Duanqing Village and enjoying the bright moonlight. What Lou Wuyun thought was whether he would have done it if he really faced his two brothers in the future.
