Chapter Eighty-Three: The Prostitute

This is Biyu South City, Gu Shenwei reminded himself that it may be common for a fourteen-year-old boy to hire a murderer, he doesn't want to show ignorance, so he doesn't want to be hired, and the purpose of wanting to be a killer is never to make money.

"You're looking for the wrong person, I'm not a killer. ”

Xu Xiaoyi's expectant eyes showed a hint of disappointment, which made him immediately look a lot more naΓ―ve, "You bid, I give the money, I have a lot of money, really, I can pay half of it first." ”

"I said, I'm not a killer. ”

Xu Xiaoyi seemed to be a child who hadn't received a New Year's gift, and became depressed, "I thought you could help, you know, this is probably the only chance to get me and my sister out of the sea of suffering." ”

"Do you have a sister?"

"Yes, I have an older sister, let's be honest with you, I'm a thief, my sister is a ...... Prostitute, this is not of our own free will, the man forced us to be beaten if we didn't pay the money for a day. If I have a choice, I am willing to learn martial arts. My sister, she should be like a rich lady, live in Beicheng, learn how to make money or something, really, even if I am still a thief, she should marry a good person, an exiled prince and nobleman or something, she has such a good temperament, beautiful and gentle, I don't understand why God is so unfair to her. ”

Gu Shenwei thought of his sister Gu Cuilan, and God was even more unfair to her.

"How much money do you have?"

"Uh, I don't know, the first time I looked for a killer, what were your rules?"

Gu Shenwei has experienced the most ruthless apprentice slaughter in Jinpeng Castle, can find out where there may be an ambush according to the state of a grass, he also intrigues with adults with evil intentions, and has a deep suspicion of everyone, but he has never been with street gangsters, especially this gangster who is pitifully asking for help.

"One hundred taels. ”

When the Dutch girl bribed the steward of the Fire Refining Courtyard and wanted to arrange Huan Nu and Liuhua to test their opponents in the month, the silver she gave was one hundred taels, so Gu Shenwei guessed that this was probably the price of buying a human life.

Xu Xiaoyi looked embarrassed, but he didn't bargain, "Okay, I'll pay fifty taels first, and then fifty taels after the matter is completed." ”

"Tell me about that person. ”

"Who?"

"The one who forced you and your sister. ”

"This is not the place to talk, you come with me. ”

Gu Shen didn't understand why he took over this inexplicable murderous "business", his and Master's affairs were not over, no matter what, it was better to cause less trouble, and this young man looked too elf and eccentric to be trusted.

The little bit of emotion that Xu Xiaoyi revealed when he mentioned his sister was probably the only thing that moved Gu Shenwei.

He stood up and followed the young man out of the tavern, thinking in his heart what Tie Hanfeng would think of this matter, since the master refused to reveal his true purpose, he might as well stimulate him again.

Not long after dawn, there were almost no pedestrians on the street, Xu Xiaoyi led the way, entered the city wall, and walked in the alleys, like a little mouse running in the self-built secret palace, which is the shortest road, where to avoid people's eyes and ears, all are clear.

At the end of the street is a small building facing the street, there is no courtyard, the first floor is the living room, the second floor is the bedroom, although the place is not large, the decoration is extremely luxurious, covered with a thick carpet, gold, silver and jade everything, I don't know the use of silk and silk everywhere, obviously here has just ended a banquet.

This is a small brothel, Gu Shenwei was a little nervous, and his suspicions rose again, thinking that this was a joke made by the master, maybe it was the red face that greeted him later.

It soon turned out that this suspicion was superfluous, Xu Xiaoyi went upstairs, and it was his sister who came down, a petite and weak girl, even if her face was painted with rouge, she still couldn't hide her panic and childishness.

The girl's name was Xu Yanwei, she was only seventeen years old, and she was the first prostitute Gu Shenwei had ever met.

If Gu Lun was still alive and saw that his son had a relationship with a prostitute at such a young age, he would definitely move his family to another 10,000 miles away.

Xu Yanwei is indeed as her brother said, she has a gentle temperament, she doesn't even say much, it is all Xu Xiaoyi's introduction, she just hangs her head, gently twists the handkerchief in her hand, it seems that she is very afraid of the behavior of hiring a killer this time, and her face is bloodless with fright as soon as there is a sound outside the door.

The man who forced the siblings was an old scoundrel in Nancheng, whose name was unknown, and everyone called him "Big-bellied Buddha", and his children called him "Daddy".

"The father bought children from all over the country and raised them to enslave them, so that the boys became thieves and robbers, and the girls were ...... Do this. ”

Xu Xiaoyi was angry and hated his father very much, "As long as there are guests willing to pay to watch, he will kill people in public, and beating people is even more commonplace, you see, my sister's injuries have never healed." ”

Xu Xiaoyi lifted her sister's sleeves, revealing a slender childlike arm and wrist, and several shocking blood marks interlaced on her white and tender skin.

Xu Yanwei hurriedly lowered his sleeves, turned around, and sobbed silently.

Gu Shenwei was completely moved by the performance of the two sisters and brothers, and the chivalrous heart cultivated by his father in his childhood was revived, so that he ignored many important things, such as this "big-bellied Buddha", since he can manipulate many children, and do both lust and stealing at the same time, he must be a powerful person, and he may also have a connection with Jinpeng Castle, and killing him may cause trouble.

Gu Shenwei inadvertently entered another world, which was different from the Central Plains Martial Arts Family and the Killer Fort of the Western Regions, where there was no so-called lie and truth, illusion and truth, everything was a virtual realm conjured up by money.

Only those who understand how important money is can see through the fog in front of them at a glance, which is a lesson that Gu Shenwei learned later.

"Give me the silver, and a knife. ”

After listening to Xu Xiaoyi for a long time, Gu Shenwei gave such a sentence.

The process of assassination is standard, Gu Shen looked at the internal and external environment, determined the retreat route, and asked the Potbelly Buddha in detail about his personal situation.

The pot-bellied Buddha was also a good hand when he was young, and he slashed out a career in the streets and alleys of Nancheng, and since the money and wealth were bulging, his martial arts have fallen, and now he has to breathe for a long time when he climbs a few stairs.

He was always accompanied by a bodyguard, and the selection of candidates was not fixed, in short, he was the kind of swordsman that could be seen everywhere in the taverns in the southern city.

In less than an hour, he would come to Xu Yanwei to "collect taxes" and take all the money she earned the night before, and he would usually go upstairs and complete the business in his bedroom.

Xu Yanwei has an elderly servant woman by her side, who has been sent away by her.

This seems to be a simple action, the only thing that is not quite appropriate is the knife that Xu Xiaoyi found.

The scabbard was brand new, painted with glossy black lacquer, and inside was a replica of the Jinpeng Castle Narrow Knife, which was rough in workmanship and slightly lighter, and had been curled in a few places.

Gu Shenwei returned the scabbard to Xu Xiaoyi, asked him to take it away, carried the imitation knife himself, and followed Xu Yanwei upstairs.

The bedroom was the same as downstairs, intricately decorated, with a curtain on the door, Gu Shenwei closed the curtain and hid in the back, if everything was as expected, the bodyguard should be standing at the door, which was his priority target.

All the preparations were done, and the two people in the bedroom suddenly felt embarrassed.

Although Gu Shenwei was only fifteen years old, his expression was serious and gloomy, and he looked three or four years older than his actual age, except for his younger brother, Xu Yanwei had never been in contact with young people who were not guests, and he seemed restless, peeking at him from time to time, and immediately lowered his head again, pretending to smooth the skirt that was already very neat.

Gu Shenwei was also very uncomfortable, he didn't know what a prostitute should look like, but he was not so shy and timid in his imagination, Xu Yanwei's eyes always seemed to be teary, and her eyes were dodgy, which made her seem incompatible with the word "prostitute".

"You should have been suspicious of me when I didn't exist. ”

Gu Shenwei reminded that he still had to hide here for a while, and he really couldn't stand that kind of cautious prying eyes.

Xu Yan agreed faintly, and then did what he should do when the bedroom was empty: he stripped naked.

In fact, she wore only a gorgeous robe with nothing in it.

Although he could only see a vague shadow through the curtain, Gu Shenwei immediately turned his head, his heart pounding, this was also the first time he felt that this Xu Yanwei might not be as delicate and timid as he looked.

When Gu Shenwei turned around again, Xu Yanwei had already gone to bed, and the day was her time to rest.

He wiped away a fine layer of sweat from his palms, re-grasped the hilt, and stared through the curtain at a piece of void in the doorway, which quickly calmed his mind.

Xu Yanwei breathed slightly, as if she was really asleep, even if there were a hundred men hidden in the room, it would not disturb her.

The big-bellied Buddha announced his arrival with a bangbang upstairs sound, and the person was still outside the door, and the loud voice had already sounded, "My daughter, what gift did you prepare for Dad?"

The pot-bellied Buddha came in, like an oversized leather ball, frequently wiping his sweat with a silk scarf, as if he was still in the summer, and behind him, followed by a middle-aged man in his early thirties, tall and unkempt, it seemed that he hadn't washed his face for a long time, similar to the robbers Gu Shenwei had ever seen.

The pot-bellied Buddha walked directly to the bed, and the bodyguard leaned against the door, only a curtain away from the hidden killer, looking at the woman on the bed with an obscene gaze.

Xu Yanwei woke up as soon as he heard the footsteps, sat on the bed, dragged the corner to cover his body, his face was pale, and he tried to smile, "Dad, last night's guest sent a thousand taels, all there." ”

There was a low table on the carpet, covered with red silk, and the pot-bellied Buddha lifted it, and when he saw the plate of silver piled high, he nodded with satisfaction.

Gu Shenwei was taken aback, what kind of guest, he sent a thousand taels of silver in one night, and it took a hundred taels to kill two people by himself, which seemed to be a bit of a loss.

But at this time, there was no way to bargain, he held his breath and waited for the best time, the middle-aged bodyguard is not like a martial arts master, but according to the principle of the Jinpeng Castle killer, even if he kills a beggar who is too old to be good, he must go all out, and he must not underestimate the enemy.

The bodyguard's gaze greedily rested on the woman's snow-white arm, and his body involuntarily leaned forward and pressed against the curtain, less than an inch away from the tip of the knife behind him.
