The battlefield of Bowanglou has been cleaned up, Su Tang sat in the study, flipped through the various materials accumulated by the Zhu family over the decades, occupied a place, and read all the information as much as possible, which has become his habit, which is the most effective way to understand the local situation in a short time.

Concubine Mei sat quietly on the side, if Su Tang drank all the tea in the cup, she would make Su Tang a new cup, in addition, she didn't need her to help her, she really couldn't sit still, she would quietly walk to the window, look at the scenery of Bowang City, and then sit back in place.

If it is replaced by Wenxiang and Xi Xiaoru, it will definitely be unbearable, there is a feeling of wasting time, and I will run away a long time ago, or find something to do. But Concubine Mei is different, Wenxiang and Xi Xiaoru are both Jinsong who is growing desperately and seems to be about to pierce the sky, and she is a soft vine, what do you need to cling to to to be at ease, so although she is sitting idle, as long as she can see Su Tang, she is already very satisfied.

There was a knock on the door, Concubine Mei frowned, hurriedly got up and walked to the door, pulled the door open, and saw Ji Hao standing outside the door.

"What's the matter?" Concubine Mei said unhappily, because Su Tang hated being disturbed the most when she was flipping through things, and she thought that it was not the right time to be careful.

"Miss Mei, it's the gentleman who wants to see her. Ji smiled and pointed out.

Concubine Mei looked over and saw a good-looking and elegant woman standing there quietly, she suddenly had an inexplicable hostility in her heart, if she could make up her mind, she would definitely say coldly, no, and then immediately closed the door, but Su Tang was behind, she didn't dare to be presumptuous, let it aside, and indifferently motioned for the woman to come in.

The woman walked into the room and stopped quietly, while Su Tang was still immersed in her own temple of thought, and Concubine Mei was hostile to the beautiful stranger in front of her, without reminding Su Tang, the atmosphere seemed very cold.

After a long time, Su Tang put down the information in his hand, picked up another one, inadvertently caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye, looked up, and found the woman.

"What's your name?" Su Tang asked lightly.

"My name is Hu Yiqing. The woman replied.

"Is that your own sister?, what's her name?" asked Su Tang again.

"Yes, her name is Hu Yilu. ”

"How did you meet the Night's Watch?" said Su Tang.

"Night watchman?" the woman was surprised, not understanding what Su Tang was talking about.

"It's the guy who lives in Blackstone Lane. ”

"I once failed in a mission, but he saved me, and then I didn't go to Bowanglou and kept picking up tasks from him. Hu Yiqing said.

"You said at that time, even if you tell me, you will still die, it seems that you have dealt with them a lot, let's talk about it, what do you know?" Su Tang said.

"They ......" Hu Yiqing paused: "Their strength is very strong, and there are a lot of people." ”

"Oh, have you seen them?" Su Tang's expression became solemn.

"I've seen it. Hu Yiqing said.

"If you have seen it, you have seen it, if you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it, what does it mean to have seen?" Su Tang frowned.

"There are some tasks that I can do alone, and some tasks that I have to work with a lot of strangers. Hu Yiqing said: "There are as few as three or five, and as many as seventy or eighty, everyone is covered with their faces, and I can only distinguish men and women from their voices, and nothing else can be seen." ”

"Seventy or eighty??" Su Tang was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "Have you been to Xie's house?"

"Xie family?" Hu Yiqing said, "I don't know. ”

"About forty days ago, did you take over the task?" asked Su Tang.

"Take it. Hu Yiqing nodded.

"There are a lot of people?"

"Yes. ”

"Tell me more about it. Su Tang let out a long breath.

"It's simple. Hu Yiqing said: "I got on a carriage outside the city, and the carriage pulled me to a place where there were many people, and there was a great cultivator who was in charge of directing us, and then I went up the mountain and had a fight with the people in the villa, and then I came back. ”

"How many days has the carriage been gone?" asked Su Tang.

"A few days ......" Hu Yiqing was stunned, and then frowned and thought hard.

"It doesn't have to be too accurate, it's probably good. Su Tang said.

"Eight to ten days. Hu Yiqing said: "The carriage is like a prison, eating, drinking, sleeping and sleeping in it, and I can only judge whether it is night or day from the light that comes in from the curtain of the carriage, I really can't remember." ”

"The carriage keeps going?"

"No, rest at night, or the horses won't be able to stand it. ”

"I won't let you out during the break?"

"No, it's the rule. Hu Yiqing said.

"Is the speed of the carriage fast?" asked Su Tang.

"Not fast, but not slow either. ”

"Almost all the people in that villa have been killed by you, right?" Su Tang said.

"This ...... It was the task he gave me. Hu Yiqing said in a low voice, obviously, she was worried that Su Tang would have a relationship with the people in the villa, and then became angry with her, if it was only herself, she was not afraid, from the beginning of this road, she didn't think that she could live a long life, but she couldn't let her sister suffer because of her own fault.

"I know that the Tao is a mission. Su Tang said: "Answer me, have all the people in the villa been killed?"

"Yes. Hu Yiqing said slowly: "When I arrived at the place, the great cultivator said that no one will stay, if I don't carry out the order...... I may not be able to return to Bowang City alive. ”

"Then you still don't know about the Xie family?" Su Tang said word by word: "Haven't you heard of the Xie family's tragedy?

"I don't know what to do. Hu Yiqing's eyes showed a blank look: "I...... Must you know the truth?"

Su Tang stared at Hu Yiqing for a long time, he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You don't even know such a big thing, what are you doing all day long?"

"I only go out when I have a task, and the rest of the time I spend the rest of my time at home with my sister. When it came to his sister, Hu Yiqing, who had been expressionless, flashed a gentle look in her eyes.

"You don't want to go around?" asked Su Tang.

"Don't go out. ”

"Firewood, rice, oil, salt or something, you should buy it yourself, right?" Su Tang was a little suspicious.

"The uncle and aunt next door will buy it for us. Hu Yiqing said.

Su Tang was helpless, it turned out that the otaku girl was not unique to the Internet world......

"Why are they helping you like this?" asked Su Tanghu suspiciously.

"It's kind of rent. Hu Yiqing said: "The old house is my family, a few years ago, there was a fire in the city, I saw that they were homeless, I felt pitiful, so I took them to my old house, they are very good to our sisters, when I go out, they always take care of my sister." ”

Su Tang understood, why those women and men would be so nervous, and one of the men actually dared to attack him, it turned out that this was the reason.

"Interesting, a killer, there are times when he is a bad person?" Su Tang sneered.

Hu Yiqing didn't respond, just lowered her head.

"How do you know that Lu Dao has a mission, and he is looking for you?" asked Su Tang again.

"No, if there is a mission, he will send someone to send a golden chrysanthemum over, and then I will know the way and go to Blackstone Lane to find him. Hu Yiqing said.

"Ah......" Concubine Mei, who had been listening quietly beside her, suddenly covered her mouth.

Su Tang glanced at Concubine Mei in surprise, and then shifted his gaze to Hu Yiqing: "When you went to assassinate the head of the Hou Society, do you know who he is?"

"I probably know how to do it. Hu Yiqing said.

"How did you get in?" asked Su Tang.

"I went to the Hong family to be a maid, and then the Hong family sent me to that house. Hu Yiqing said.

"So that's ......" Su Tang groaned, Hou Yulian had just been transferred to the Bowang branch as the head of the club, and the local cultivator family gave him a few maids, which was a common thing, and the people of the Hong family had already died.

"Bring me that little snake of yours and I'll take a look. Su Tang said.

Hu Yiqing's expression was a little hesitant, but now Su Tang is a knife warrior, she is a fish and meat, and it is pointless to resist, so she had to take off the hairpin, stepped forward, and gently put the hairpin on the table.

At the moment when Hu Yiqing took his hand, the hairpin became alive, and the pocket snake with the length of the cigarette butt coiled up, nervously spitting out the snake letter, and looked around.

"What kind of snake is this?" asked Su Tang.

"It's the Tianchi Spirit Snake. Hu Yiqing replied in a low voice: "Sir, this is the only gift my mother left me, please return it to me, no matter what it is, I can promise Mr., even if it is on the pillow."

"Hmph" Concubine Mei snorted coldly, this is what she is most worried about.

"I don't want anything from you, I'm just curious. Su Tang said lightly: "The Tianchi Spirit Snake is poisonous, right?"

"The Tianchi Spirit Snake is known as the head of ten thousand snakes, it is very poisonous, there are many tasks, I can't complete it, it all depends on it. ”

"Oh?"

"I don't have a spiritual weapon that has been entered, and once the spiritual vein is operated, the other party can immediately detect it, even if I barely succeed and alarm others, I may not be able to escape. Hu Yiqing said: "If you use the Tianchi Spirit Snake, it can hurt people invisibly, and it is difficult for the other party to guard against it." ”

"Put it away. Su Tang said.

Hu Yiqing breathed a long sigh of relief, stretched out her fingertips, and the pocket little snake immediately wrapped around it: "When I was born, Xiaobai accompanied me, hehe...... Xiaobai is the name I gave it, I can communicate with Xiaobai, if I change someone else, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it. ”

"I said no, don't, you don't need to stress anything. Su Tang smiled: "However, I do have a few words of advice for you." ”

"What advice?"

"Relying on the Tianchi Spirit Snake, you are certainly convenient, but your cultivation is difficult to advance. Su Tang said: "There are some critical times, you still have to rely on yourself." ”

Hu Yiqing was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Mr. Xie taught." ”

"Just now you said that if you don't carry out the order, you may not be able to return to Bowang City alive, that is, you noticed that someone was staring at you?"
