Take a few deep breaths to suppress the greed in his heart, Zhao Jue gritted his teeth, and at this moment he wanted to slap Liu Zhiyuan twice.
Damn it, one plan harmed four sages!
But now, it’s useless to say anything else, just take care of the present first.
"Six fingers, where are our people? How many have come?"
Hearing Zhao Jue’s serious voice, it doesn’t seem like he’s joking, Six Fingers also looked serious, and asked in confusion: "Old Nine, do you really plan to stay in Jinyiwei for the rest of your life? Don’t forget, your identity is unclear!"
"Alas."
Hearing this, Zhao Jue sighed and felt lost. His family knows his own affairs, so why doesn’t he know his own situation? It’s a pity that he is now in a tiger’s den and a dragon’s pool. He doesn’t know if there is a smooth road ahead, but there is definitely no way out behind him!
"Deep in the quagmire, my hands and feet are bound, how can I get out."
Hearing this, Six Fingers also sighed, feeling more helpless than other emotions. He waved his hand, hesitated for a moment and said: "There should be many people in our ghost market who have taken this business, but... due to the unclear information, I feel that not many people will act rashly."
"What about the cultivation level? Is there a grandmaster?" Zhao asked in a low voice with a gloomy face.
Six fingers replied: "No, there is definitely no grandmaster or junior grandmaster. The highest is only the first-grade cultivation level, but the number... is hard to say."
"What about the other four families?" Zhao asked.
He must now find out how many assassins have come and what their cultivation level is. If possible, find out where these assassins have gone.
Knowing yourself and the enemy, you will never be defeated in a hundred battles. Obtaining information must be the most important thing. Zhao deeply agrees with this point, and can even say that he regards it as a criterion!
At this moment, what makes him most uneasy is that there is a fog in front of him. He knows nothing about the enemy's situation, and some of his own people have taken the initiative to expose their whereabouts.
Information asymmetry is not easy to deal with!
In response to Zhao Jue's question, Liu Zhi lowered his head and thought for a while, then turned his head away and said reluctantly: "According to what I know, the other four should have also set off. The Nanlaibeiwang Inn is the farthest from Jiangnan, and not many people take this business. As for the Dongbanxi Inn, I estimate that there will be no few, after all, someone has seen it appear in Jiangnan recently."
"As for the Ji Le Wuji Villa, in my opinion, the number of people who come must be the least, most of them are gamblers who have lost money, and their cultivation and experience are not to be feared!"
"You must pay attention to the last Qianqi Baiguai Villa, because it is open everywhere..."
"The only place with a grandmaster!"
Noticing Zhao Jue's face change drastically, Liu Zhi paused and then said: "The grandmaster is the top of martial arts. As long as he wants to show up, there is no way to find out whether there is a grandmaster in the ghost market."
"So Lao Jiu, if possible, please invite the grandmaster of Jinyiwei as soon as possible. Otherwise, things may not be easy to end!"
Zhao Jue himself knew this truth. The letter was sent to the capital, but he had no idea whether the capital would react or not!
If he could decide, he would have wanted to dispatch hundreds of thousands of troops to escort him, but unfortunately, he could only think about it.
"Alas." Zhao let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly.
Seeing his old friend half dead, Liuzhi didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only ask tentatively: "Where will you stay next time?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, Caozhou." Zhao thought for a while and answered in a tone that was not very certain. It's not that he didn't want to say it, but the situation is not clear now, and the road ahead is still vague, so it's too early to make a conclusion.
Liuzhi asked curiously: "Is the route not determined yet?"
"There are blockades in front and pursuits in the back, and the original route has been messed up, so we have to pick a safe place as much as possible and slowly move to the capital." Zhao shook his head and replied.
"Is that so."
Zhao smiled bitterly, and Liuzhi also smiled stiffly. It sounds like Zhao was helpless to leave like this.
"Let me do this. I will try my best to help you find out the situation on the road, but you should not change the route frequently, otherwise I will not be able to support you even if I am willing." Liuzhi thought for a long time, and finally decided to help Zhao Jue.
"Thank you." Zhao Jue stood up and bowed respectfully, grateful.
"No need to be polite."
Liuzhi waved to the middle-aged man, who nodded and turned to go into the inner room. When he came out again, he was holding a wooden cage in his hand, and the black bird inside was "cooing".
"This is the bird I raised. You can take it with you. If you encounter difficulties, release this bird and I will come naturally." Liuzhi urged.
"Okay." Zhao Jue took the bird cage and teased the black bird in the cage with a mood of making fun of the hardship.
Without waiting for him to sit down, Liuzhi added: "If you are a grandmaster, then forget it. Don't call me. I still want to live a few more years!"
"Hey, an old horse is still ambitious. You can't have a hedonistic mind! At the age of seventy, it is the age to work hard!" Zhao Jue joked with Liuzhi in a slightly teasing tone.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Liuzhi was so scared that his hands were shaking. He steadied his hands to prevent the teacup in his hand from spilling all over the floor, and drank a little water with lingering fear.
Then he waved his hands repeatedly, pretending that he didn't hear anything.
"Okay, if you have time, help me check what happened in Luzhou City. It looks wrong." Zhao Jue carried the birdcage and moved to the door in small steps.
Liuzhi didn't refuse, and nodded and replied: "Okay, it's a small problem, but you can't not pay the silver. After all, this is..."
Before he finished speaking, after a "squeak", Zhao Jue's figure had disappeared in the coffin shop.
"Hey, you kid."
Liuzhi wanted to cry but had no tears, so he could only point at the door quietly and stood there in a daze. The middle-aged man behind him hurried over to support him and asked, "Do you want to..."
"It's okay, help him, we are all family, let's not talk about two sides." Zhao Jue laughed.
Zhao Jue hurriedly ran through the restaurant without stopping.
The four people saw him rushing in, and Zhuque couldn't help asking, "What's wrong? Seeing you like this, I thought you didn't pay for the drinks."
"Hahaha." Baihu laughed hard.
Liu Zhiyuan looked at Zhao Jue without saying much, with a very strong suspicion in his eyes, and even a little bit of disbelief.
Zhao didn't hide anything and told all the situations he knew. Baihu, Zhuque and Qinglong didn't look very good after listening, especially Zhuque, she frowned and stared at Liu Zhiyuan.
"Everyone, tell me, what should we do?" Zhao Jue pressed her shoulders, pressed Zhuque back to the chair, and asked with a sigh.
Zhuque turned his head away from Liu Zhiyuan and said angrily: "He did it himself! Really!"
"Okay, okay, let's look at what's in front of us first." Qinglong waved his hands repeatedly, trying to smooth things over.
At this time, Zhao Jue also said: "Yes, the most important thing is: what to do next!"
