An assassin? Call me the Master of Raising Prices!

The wind blew and the candle flames swayed, stretching the shadows of the two people very long. In the firelight, there was no change in the expression on Zhao's face, just as usual.

Yu Shouyi's scarred face was full of surprise and astonishment. He opened his cloudy eyes wide, trying to see clearly what changes would happen to the expression on Zhao Jiu's face.

But unfortunately, after saying the words, Zhao had almost no emotion on his face, as if he was listening to a story, and he found a chair to sit down with great interest.

After all, he has traveled through time. Not to mention immortals, he is not surprised even if some people say there are aliens.

"Boy, looking at you like this, don't you wonder where the immortal is?"

"I'm not very curious now, as long as the immortal doesn't want to kill me..."

Although the words sounded like a joke, they were indeed the truth. Why did he care about those illusory things when he was still in jail?

This is novel! Yu Shouyi looked at the other party in surprise and asked puzzledly, "Don't you want to make further progress?"

Zhao was uninterested and looked at Yu Shouyi as if he were looking at an idiot, "Go further? Then you have to have a fucking success! I only care about Baichi's affairs. You are stupid in jail." ?”

"I've already complied with your wishes. Can you hurry up and let me kill you? I'm also very tired..."

"Aren't you curious about how I became an immortal or how I became like this?" Yu Shouyi was a little curious about this boy's uninterested attitude. Logically speaking, he should ask a few questions, but I spent money!

What's the service attitude?

"Are you stupid? You, a great master, have been tortured like this, how can I, a second-ranker, dare to listen? Besides, you are guilty of harboring a treasure, and I am alone. What do they want from me?"

"I, a guy like me who has to pay for visiting a brothel, still worry about safety issues?" Zhao laughed at himself.

Although the words don't sound good, they are the truth. As long as I have nothing to gain, I'm safe!

"Oh, you are very self-aware..."

"It's not that I don't want to know anything. I originally wanted to ask who did this to you, but I stopped thinking when I saw your cultivation. You can't hide, so I won't worry about it no matter how I hide. "Zhao said a little helplessly.

Yu Shouyi didn't mind having his wounds opened, and replied with a smile, "That's it, don't worry, you won't meet her again. That woman is dead..."

"That's good!" After breathing a sigh of relief, Zhao then asked, "For what? Isn't it just to become an immortal?"

Now that you have asked, you might as well ask to the end. At least I understand, I have nothing to do anyway, just listen to it as a story.

"It is indeed to become an immortal or a saint, or to go a step further... Boy, have you ever heard of five days?"

"It's not difficult! Taichu Heaven, Shangqing Heaven, Lingxiao Heaven, Yuqing Heaven and Daluo Heaven are the thirty-sixth heaven in the Taoist classics."

What did you think it was, that's it? Although my cultivation level is not high, I still have some understanding of these. After all, the emperor likes it, and of course his subordinates will imitate him.

"No." Yu Shouyi shook his head and explained, "The five heavens refer to the five martial arts secret books."

"Ah? That thing can become an immortal after practicing?"

"Just an idiot, a fool..."

No way. Zhao's interest dropped sharply and he didn't even want to know his name anymore. What the hell? Pretend to be a ghost!

"The reason why I became like this is because that woman couldn't practice after five days of gathering. She thought I cheated her with fake goods. Oh, people's hearts always think too much... .”

Seemingly feeling something, Yu Shouyi talked a lot intermittently. But there are no causes or consequences, it's just a release of feelings.

Zhao listened quietly and allowed him to speak without interrupting.

When he said he was tired, Zhao asked in time, "What exactly are five days? And who is that woman? You won't die so easily at this level, right?"

"Xuan Tian Bao Jue, Burning Tian Bao Jian, Mending Tian Bao Jing, Qing Tian Bao Lu, Yu Tian Bao Jing." After thinking about it, he said mysteriously, "Forget it, I won't talk about the dead people, they are dead anyway. ...

"Okay, let's end the story here! It's too late, and we have to wait for lunch tomorrow. Let me send you on your way. You will suffer even if you live!" When he stopped talking, Zhao stood up, angry. It has been running for a long time, just waiting to slap him to death.

"Okay, come on, boy, the second one has appeared in five days. If I die, I can cut off their thoughts!" Yu Shouyi smiled in relief. He had suffered too much, and death would be a relief.

He simply restrained his true intentions, closed his eyes, and yelled the last words with all his strength, "Come! Kill me, kid! Come to the head and kill me with one blow!"

Zhao understood his thoughts and was just pursuing happiness. So he moved his feet lightly, pushed his palms out gently, and pressed down on Yu Shou's head.

As the true energy surged and then subsided, Yu Shou's head hung down weakly, unable to take in any more air.

"Hey, why don't you feel anything when you kill a legend?" Zhao rubbed his hands and stared at Yu Shouyi's body, a little uninterested.

Logically speaking, a killer should be happy after killing a legend. After all, the price will definitely rise in the future. But he didn't feel anything. He probably didn't kill a complete person.

Forget about these unimportant things.

After collecting the body into the space, he drove the carriage into the city. After returning the carriage to the prefect's Yamen, he walked through the snow to the yard.

As for the martial arts secret book, what does it have to do with him? He can still tell his own weight, and it is not his turn to argue. He should do his own thing first.

After putting aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, he sat cross-legged, took out the Tongxuan Pill and swallowed it, and started practicing the exercises.

Time passed quickly, and it was the next morning when he opened his eyes again. After moving his numb body, he washed up and went to Zhaoyu to report.

Today is the twenty-fifth day of the lunar year, and it happened to be a little snowy. The streets were already bustling early in the morning, with small vendors hawking, and many people buying various things needed for the New Year. Zhao walked all the way and felt that the fireworks were unusually warm.

How good is the world, what is the point of becoming an immortal?

After filling his stomach, he returned to the duty room and made himself a pot of tea. Today, he should determine who to catch for the New Year.

So he asked the small flag outside the door to call Zheng Rongqing over. He had rested enough, and it was his turn to play a role.

"Master Jiu..."

Zheng Rongqing finished greeting, Zhao Jue waved his hand and asked him to close the door, then whispered, "Write it, this time we will select five, officials and marquises, the rank should not be too low, starting from the third rank..."

"Haven't they been killed..."

"How can they rebel with only a few fifth-rank officials? Without the help and instructions from the top, how dare they do such a head-losing thing?" Zhao Jue said unhappily.

"It's clearly ganging up! Communicating with each other!"

"How can it be enough to just kill a few minions?"
