C730 An Assassin from the Inner Ghost Manager of the Villa
"Don't get too excited. You can't say things so ruthlessly. Although he is your Master, he is still just an outsider. However, your family is your real family. You have to consider clearly which one is more important. " After saying that, Lu Zhen took out a hairpin from his bosom and placed it on the table.
"You. . . !" Looking at this hairpin, the person grabbed it in his hand and wanted to say something but did not say anything.
"You know this thing, right? This is your mother's hairpin. It is enough to prove that your parents are in my hands. As long as I move my finger, your parents' heads will fall to the ground. Think about whether you will help or not. " As Lu Zhen spoke, his body emitted waves of killing intent.
"There are so many people in Cloud And Bamboo Manor. Why did you find me? Besides, I'm just an ordinary disciple, I can't help you at all. " The man's tone changed a lot when he heard Lu Zhen's words.
"Hahahaha, that's right. Let's have a good talk, even though there are a lot of people in the Cloud And Bamboo Manor. Because, although you have no job, you have no position. Otherwise, you wouldn't be staying in an inn in the city. You would be staying in a tent outside the city. " Lu Zhen said with a smile as if he knew everything.
"Who are you? Why do you know so much? Why did you harm my Master? If you have the ability, fight him with all your might. What kind of man are you to use such tricks on him?" The person who had just arrived spoke without any hesitation.
"You don't have to provoke me. I only want to ask you whether you want to help or not. I will only give you this chance. If you say no, I will make sure your parents don't see tomorrow's sun. " As he spoke, the person shook the teacup in his hand, and it immediately shattered into pieces.
"You. . . ! I definitely won't be able to do that. Even if you kill my parents, I'll still say the same thing. If you want to kill my Master, then do it yourself. " After thinking for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and said.
"Do it yourself? What do you mean?"
"My Master can return to the manor tomorrow. When he returns, he will arrange for a big feast. At that time, all the people in the Jianghu who are invited will attend the feast. When the time comes, there will be a lot of people talking. You can mingle among them and wait for an opportunity to strike. As for whether or not you can kill my Master, it will depend on your own ability. " The man said bluntly.
"Fine. Since that's the case, you only need to bring me into the manor. But I'm warning you, don't play any tricks on me. Otherwise, your parents will only die. " Lu Zhen threatened.
"Don't worry. I will do it. Do you have anything else to do? If I don't have it, I will leave. I will be discovered if I come out for too long. " The man said coldly when he saw Lu Zhen agree.
"Take care, I won't see you out. " Lu Zhen made a gesture to treat him, then he changed to another teacup, poured tea, and continued drinking.
When the shopkeeper outside the door heard this, he quickly left quietly. Otherwise, the person who came would find him the moment he went out.
Just as the shopkeeper turned the stairs, the person who came opened the door and walked out towards the stairs.
Just as he walked to the staircase, the shopkeeper walked up and the two of them bumped into each other.
"Sorry, sorry, I bumped into you. Are you alright?" After the shopkeeper knocked into him, he quickly bowed and apologized.
"I'm fine. " The person didn't continue to pester him. Instead, he patted his clothes and left.
After he left, the smile on the shopkeeper's face disappeared once again, and a jade pendant appeared in his hand. He looked at the jade pendant, smiled, and then looked at the Sky No. 1 Room. He narrowed his eyes, turned around, and left.
After a while, the shopkeeper held a square plate with an incense burner and a teapot on it. Under the square plate was a dagger in his hand. After he was ready, he went up to the second floor and knocked on the door of the Sky No. 1 Room.
"Who is it?" When he heard the knocking, a voice came from inside.
"It's me, the shopkeeper. We got a batch of new tea in the evening. I saw that the guest liked drinking tea these few days. Coincidentally, the lights are still on, so I wanted to bring some over. Please have a taste. " The shopkeeper said from outside.
"Come in. "
Hearing this, the shopkeeper pushed open the door and walked in. Then, he went to the table and poured a cup for Lu Zhen before placing the teapot on the table.
"Customer, please taste it. "
Lu Zhen saw that he did not pick it up to drink. Obviously, he was very alert.
"Shopkeeper, come and sit down. I have been staying here for the past few days and have caused quite a bit of trouble for you. It's not good to drink tea alone. How about you stay here and chat with me?" Lu Zhen took a teacup and poured a cup in front of the shopkeeper.
"This. . . " Hearing Lu Zhen's words, the manager was stunned and hesitated for a moment.
"What? You don't want to give me face? Then just take the tea away from me, I won't taste it. " Lu Zhen seemed to be displeased when he saw the manager act in such a manner.
"Haha, please calm your anger, guest. I am just a rough person. I really don't know how to accompany you. " The shopkeeper seemed to be in a dilemma as he spoke.
"It's fine. We're just here to drink tea. If you don't drink, then I won't drink either. "
"Alright, alright, alright. Then I'll drink with you. " As he spoke, the shopkeeper carefully placed the square plate on the ground as if he had made a great decision. Then, he sat down and picked up the teacup.
"Yes, that's right. Come, I'll use tea as a substitute for wine to thank the shopkeeper for taking care of me during this period of time. I'll leave tomorrow. I'll treat this tea as the shopkeeper sending me off. " As he spoke, Lu Zhen raised his wine cup and said.
"You're too polite, sir. This is what I should do. Then I can only wish you a safe journey. I'll toast you first. " As he spoke, the shopkeeper picked up the teacup and drained it in one gulp.
"Haha, good. " Only after seeing the shopkeeper drink the tea did he relax and drink it in one gulp.
"Good tea. It's really good tea. I didn't expect that your restaurant wouldn't be big, but this tea is quite good. " After drinking the tea, Lu Zhen pursed his lips and said with a smile.
"Hehe, that's right. Then you can continue drinking. I'm going to get busy. If it's not enough, please call me again. " As he spoke, the shopkeeper bent down and picked up the square plate, preparing to stand up.
"Okay, then the shopkeeper will go and do your work. " As he spoke, Lu Zhen poured a few more cups and drank. It seemed that he really liked tea.
At this moment, the shopkeeper's right hand quietly placed under the square plate. He held the dagger and threw the square plate. The dagger went straight towards Lu Zhen.
Lu Zhen saw that something was wrong and quickly used the bottom of the teacup to block the dagger. Then, he frowned and looked at the shopkeeper. "What do you mean? Why did you want to kill me? Who are you? "
"Hmph, it doesn't matter who I am in your words. What matters is that today next year will be your death anniversary. " After saying that, the shopkeeper retracted his dagger and stabbed towards Lu Zhen once again.
