"You did it on purpose, right?"

After saying goodbye to the drunken Tianmu, Zhao Yuan and Cang Wushuang broke back again, then found a hidden place to hide, and in front of them was the small tavern.

Zhao Yuan nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I actually just want to try it. If the person who killed the envoy of the Ming Dynasty was indeed a powerful and powerful person in Hongluo Mountain, then he would likely send someone to carefully inquire about the movement. Among the people who were eating just now, his spy might have to be sharp. As a spy, they must have their ears and ears, so they might have heard our conversation before."

Cang Wushuang continued, "If I heard it, then I will naturally not be able to keep the life under the jurisdiction of this small restaurant?"

Zhao Yuan said: "That's of course! So I'll just wait for a while and see if anyone is coming to think about this bad idea!"

Cang Wushuang said, "What if it isn't?"

Zhao Yuan said: "If there is no, we will just go there in vain. Just treat it as enjoying the world of two people."

Cang Wushuang nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to you all!"

The two of them stopped talking, but stared at the tavern carefully.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the tavern was just like the shopkeeper said, with many customers coming in and out. It can be seen that the business is very good, but these are also ordinary drinkers.

"Did I have guessed wrong?"

Zhao Yuan couldn't help but wonder, of course, he also hoped that he had made a mistake in his guess.

"Look, there is movement!"

Cang Wushuang suddenly felt alert.

Following her gaze, I saw a few men in black approaching secretly in the dark, trying to hide themselves in the shadow of the tent.

Their hiding is indeed very good. Ordinary people may not be able to see it, but they did not expect that Zhao Yuan and the others are not ordinary people. They cannot hide it, but they cannot escape the eyes of Zhao Yuan and Cang Wushuang.

After hiding for a while, they saw that there was no one around, so they quietly approached the tent in the tavern, and then carefully opened a small hole in the wall of the tent and took out a bamboo pole.

"Scented?"

Zhao Yuan was surprised and said, "The Mixiang Class is only useful for some people in the Central Plains martial arts world, but those are despised by others. After all, they are despicable methods."

But I never expected that there were people in Hongluo Mountain that used this method.

"Bang...bang..."

The sound of a person falling to the ground came from the tent. The sound was relatively light, but it still couldn't escape the ears of Zhao Yuan and Cang Wushuang. It seemed that the fragrance should have worked.

The assassin outside was waiting for this and quietly approached the door of the tent.

Zhao Yuan and Cang Wushuang followed closely behind, and the two of them quietly did not notice the group of people at all.

After the group of people entered the tent, they saw the drinkers lying in a row. Among these drinkers, the shopkeeper in front of the counter was particularly conspicuous!

“Finally found.”

Someone among the assassin lowered his voice.

"Kill her!"

Immediately someone ordered that their mission was to kill her.

"yes!"

Hearing this, he immediately pulled out his knife and stabbed the shopkeeper who was lying on the counter without hesitation.

But at this moment, he could only hear a crisp sound. The knife in his hand could not control it and suddenly escaped. The originally hard steel knife was broken into two pieces at this moment.

This man grabbed his wrist and the steel knife was knocked away, which also caused considerable damage to his hands.

He also reacted quickly and immediately shouted, "Who is it?"

His shout attracted everyone's eyes, and at this moment they also realized that there were suddenly two more people in the tent, one man and one woman.

Seeing these two people, the group was so scared that they were scattered. Now in Hongluo Mountain, these two people are very famous, especially that woman, who can compete with the Sword Saint. Although she lost in the end, she only lost one move. How many people in Hongluo Mountain are their opponents?

They never expected that these two people would appear here.

This is everyone's question.

"Who sent you here?"

Zhao Yuan asked in a deep voice. Zhao Yuan wanted to figure out who was instructing this group of people now!

But these people looked at me, looked at you, and then made an action that Zhao Yuan and Cang Wushuang didn't expect, and they all took the knife and wiped it at their necks!

The movements were very fast and without hesitation, so that Zhao Yuan and Cang Wushuang couldn't even stop them.

Almost instantly, the men in black fell down together, and a few more corpses appeared on the ground in an instant.

This smell of blood is filled with the air at this moment.

"These are dead soldiers!"

Zhao Yuan said, still extremely shocked. Perhaps they knew that they could not beat them and could not escape. And once they fell into them, they might know that death would be a luxury.

Cang Wushuang nodded and said, "But on the other hand, it also proved something. The shopkeeper may have seen something, so they killed someone to silence me. I'll get some water!"

The best way to get caught in the incense is water. After being splashed by the water, the shopkeeper slowly opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Yuan and Cang Wushuang in a daze, and said in confusion: "Why are you two here? What's wrong with me?"

The effect of the incense has not yet subsided, but now she is still confused.

As he spoke, he looked at the tavern in a daze, and soon he saw clearly the drunkards and corpses lying on the ground. He screamed immediately, his face pale in fear. The effect of the scent seemed to be invisible in an instant.

After screaming, she just covered her mouth, and the fear in her eyes was revealed. She didn't expect that she felt very sleepy just now and suddenly wanted to sleep. When she felt like she was awake, she found that there were many corpses in her tavern. Not to mention her, even if she was a man, she would probably be so scared that she was trembling at this moment.

Zhao Yuan could also understand her current feelings and said, "Don't be afraid, these people are all dead!"

Although Zhao Yuan told her not to be afraid, how could she not be afraid? She was already trembling involuntarily.

However, compared to other women, she was the shopkeeper, and she was a guest all day long. She had never seen anyone. She had a much better ability than ordinary people. After a while, she came to her senses and said, "Who are they...?"

Zhao Yuan shook his head and said, "We also want to know, but unfortunately they all committed suicide before they could ask, but at least one thing can be confirmed that they came to kill you."

The shopkeeper's body trembled and he said, "Care me?"

Zhao Yuan said: "Yes, after we sent the old senior back, we thought the shopkeeper was good at drinking, so we turned it back and had two drinks. Unexpectedly, we met such a group of people sneaking around. When we came in with them, we found that this person was about to kill you, so we took action."

As he said that, he kicked the person who was lying on the ground, and this person actually snorted with a kick.

Zhao Yuan and Cang Wushuang were startled and were delighted. They paused and turned the man over. They found that the man was pale and had a dagger in his belly. They snooped and breathed. Although it was a little weak, it was still there. So they quickly slapped him a few times, helped him stop the blood, and said, "I'll send him to the doctor, you can protect the shopkeeper!"

The knife in this man's hand was knocked away by Zhao Yuan before, and his powerful force also injured his right hand, so he didn't stab the vital point when he pulled the dagger to commit suicide. However, he fainted in severe pain. Zhao Yuan kicked him casually and reminded him. At this moment, he was still in a semi-coma and was instinctive and hummed out.

Zhao Yuan held him and headed straight for Halm's tent. It was already late at night, but Halm did not fall asleep. The envoy of the Ming Dynasty was killed and the murderer was not found. Although he would not send the disappearance back to the Ming Dynasty for the time being, this paper could not contain the fire. Once the news was leaked, the two countries might start a war.

He is not afraid of war, but if Tumot takes the opportunity to attack the Ming Dynasty, Urianha is in a worrying situation.

Although I still have some doubts in my heart whether it is just the national teacher who is doing it, it is difficult to determine without real evidence.

Halm, who was a little irritated, was walking back and forth in the tent. After walking several steps back and forth, his irritability still did not disappear.

Just now, someone suddenly broke in. When he looked at it, it was Zhao Yuan. He was actually holding a man in black in his hand. Just as he was about to ask what was going on, Zhao Yuan took the lead and said, "Save people!"

Halm didn't ask much, and immediately sent a message to the doctor in, then asked, "What's going on?"

Zhao Yuan roughly told the matter.

Halm's eyes lit up and he said, "What do you mean is that the envoy behind the scenes is the murderer who killed the envoy of the Ming Dynasty?"

Zhao Yuan said: "I can only say that it is possible, because if it weren't for him, there was no need to send someone to assassinate the shopkeeper. So I guess the shopkeeper might know something. Now she is very scared. I let Wushuang protect her. After she stabilizes, she may know it after asking carefully."

Halm nodded and suddenly sighed: "You are really my blessing. You don't know. I was so worried about this just now that I had no clue at all."

Zhao Yuan said: "The Second Prince is polite, but you can't be happy too early in this matter. These people are all dead soldiers. If they are not afraid of death, it might be difficult for them to speak. In addition, even if they speak, as the lowest-level assassins, they know very little. They only follow their commands at the higher level. Whether there are other people at the higher level are not known for the time being. As for the shopkeeper, it is probably what they saw that night. If the assassin that night was also covered in black scarf, she would not be able to recognize anyone even if she saw it."

It’s not that Zhao Yuan poured cold water on Halm, but that’s how things are. The strict killer organization is like a relationship between the pyramid. The one who stands at the top of the pyramid is the real mastermind behind the scenes. These killers are at the lowest end of the pyramid. There are many classes between them and the mastermind behind the scenes. In order to ensure that the killers will not disclose information after the failure, most of them will take unilateral contacts, which means that these killers will only get tasks and kill people at any place and time, but they may not even know who is the one who gives them a task.

As for the shopkeeper, even though she encountered those killers who committed the murder that night, the killers were basically committing crimes in masks. Even if she caught them, she could not recognize anyone, which was of no use for the progress of the entire case.

Zhao Yuan’s current focus is on the half-cut blade. Even the small cutter blade contains a lot of useful information.

Zhao Yuan of this intelligence station did not intend to tell Halm that the Jinyiwei's stronghold in Hongluo Mountain is the top priority and cannot be exposed.

Halm understood what Zhao Yuan said, nodded, and said, "I know it too, but it's better than having no clue."

Zhao Yuan said: "As for the shopkeeper, after she settles down, I will ask what happened. As for this person, I will hand it over to the prince."

The interrogation is not my own specialty, so I might as well leave it to Halm.

When Zhao Yuan returned to his tent, Cang Wushuang had already brought the shopkeeper back. Compared to her panic before, she seemed much calmer now.

Seeing Zhao Yuan come back, Cang Wushuang greeted me and said, "The shopkeeper has told me that when she left the tavern that night, she found a group of people hurriedly heading to the embassy from not far away. There were hundreds of people, and it was about the fourth update. Later, she was scared and hurriedly dismissed the drinkers, so she hid in the pub. She didn't know that the embassy was attacked yesterday."

As Zhao Yuan expected, the shopkeeper only saw the group of people who went to commit the crime and could not recognize what it was. The only thing he knew was that the time of the incident was close to the fourth update.

He nodded slightly and said, "Your tavern will be closed for now, and the person will live here temporarily. The murderer has not been found now, so we are worried that the assassin will come again."

The shopkeeper hesitated and said, "Will that disturb you?"

Zhao Yuan said: "What's there to disturb this? Have a good rest."

...

The next day, as Zhao Yuan said, Wugang and others began to act. On the one hand, they immediately sent people to the court to the attack on the Ming envoys, and at the same time they rushed back to Datong with the broken blade to investigate whether they could find the origin of the knife. On the other hand, they began to learn other people doing business and began to vigorously promote their own sword-casting techniques. In order to ensure the effectiveness of the publicity, they even moved the iron-making set directly from the side of the road, then burned the stove red, and performed the casting knife in front of the people passing by.

In order to demonstrate their superb skills, they also used the Baosteel method when casting knives. As the shopkeeper, Wugang was still shouting loudly, proclaiming that his group of people were so superb in casting knives.
