Chapter 365 A Simple Decision (Part 1)
It was dawn, Wu Yan was holding the silly woman Zhu Mei, walking slowly in the forest.
He has completed his mission and will return to Xiaoyu Pavilion - and in Xiaoyu Pavilion, of course, he cannot bring outsiders.
So he had an idea, which was to find a quiet place to temporarily place Zhu Mei to ensure that she would not starve to death... Then after returning to the pavilion, he would petition to your Majesty, hoping that every time in the future After completing the mission, everyone can come to Zhu Mei and have a meal with her.
Of course, in Drizzle Pavilion, it was a complete joke for the killer to bring up this idea.
But for Wu Yan, this was not a problem.
He knew that his status in Xiaoyu Pavilion was not ordinary.
In the entire pavilion, he is the only killer who can directly talk to His Majesty and accept His Majesty's mission.
When other killers perform tasks, it is the Black Li people who go to assign tasks with the jade plaque that contains the task information.
Only he took the jade token given by His Majesty and gave it to the Black Li people, so that the Black Li people could arrange the affairs.
Even killers who are at a higher level than him and have completed more tasks do not receive this treatment.
Wu Yan didn’t know why, and he didn’t think about it.
But he knows that he is different from other killers... He has ideas and requests, and he can directly propose them to His Majesty. If His Majesty does not agree, he will only refuse and will not say anything.
So, he wanted to try it.
He thought it was harmless.
Soon, they walked out of the woods, and outside the woods was a small town.
Wu Yan has been here before. It is not far from the capital. The town is quite prosperous, even more lively than some small towns in remote places.
Although it was just dawn, there were already many people coming to the market from several surrounding villages, and the streets were already bustling with people.
"Brother."
Zhu Mei asked stupidly: "Where are we going?"
Wu Yan held her hand and asked calmly: "Are you hungry?"
Zhu Mei shook her head, grinned, and smiled happily: "My sister is not hungry, my sister is very full."
Wu Yan saw her smiling and nodded with satisfaction.
Both of them were very full after last night's meal, but he was afraid that Zhu Mei would be hungry, so when he left Huailin Village, he got some eggs and made some egg pancakes to take with him on the way.
Walking all the way from Huailin Village, Zhu Mei ate a lot of those pancakes, so of course she would never be hungry again.
At this time, Zhu Mei suddenly squeezed Wu Yan's hand and asked, "Brother, are you hungry?"
Wu Yan was startled.
No one ever asked him if he was hungry.
But that was not the most surprising thing about him.
The most surprising thing was...he suddenly discovered that he was really not hungry.
Maybe it was due to that meal, but he knew very well that no matter how full he was in the past, as soon as he put down his chopsticks, he would start waiting for the next meal... and then he would still be hungry.
But now, he is not hungry anymore!
An indescribable feeling of satisfaction surged into his heart, and Wu Yan suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
In the past, his heart was empty and there was always something missing.
But now...he is holding Zhu Mei, his stomach is full, and his heart has become full and rich.
He was in a better mood and had a little more spring in his step - even if he didn't fully understand the concept of being in a good mood.
Soon, he took Zhu Mei to his destination.
"Brother, where is this?"
Zhu Mei looked up at the building in front of her and asked blankly.
Wu Yan said calmly: "The inn."
"Inn?" Zhu Mei tilted her head: "What is an inn?"
"It's a place where you can sleep and eat." Wu Yan said, leading Zhu Mei into the inn. When he left Huailin Village, he changed into the clothes of the villagers, so that he would not be covered in blood and would not attract attention. As for money, he already had a lot of money on him, so of course he took it with him.
The killer of Xiaoyu Pavilion always has a lot of money on him.
When you go out to do a mission, you will inevitably encounter various complicated situations. If the killer is in trouble because he is short of money, that is simply the stupidest thing in the world.
"Arrange a room for her."
Wu Yan spread the banknotes on the counter and said to the shopkeeper: "Three meals a day are ready and delivered to the room. I will be back after a while. If I miss her food, I will cause trouble for you."
"Oh, no!"
The shopkeeper took the banknote and smiled like a chrysanthemum: "Your Majesty. The money you have is enough to stay in our store for two months!"
As he said that, he looked at Zhu Mei and said with a smile: "Is this you?"
"It's her." Wu Yan said.
At this time, Zhu Mei had some taste. Only then did her brain with little thinking ability understand something, and she panicked: "Brother, don't you want your sister?"
"Don't worry." Wu Yan patted her hand: "You won't be hungry anymore, I will come back to you soon."
This sentence obviously gave Zhu Mei a lot of comfort , the panic in her eyes visibly extinguished.
So she watched Wu Yan turn away and disappear at the door of the inn, then reluctantly followed the waiter upstairs to her room.
...
Not long after, Wu Yanwu arrived at the nearest stronghold.
This... is still a small temple.
Like the previous small temple, there is also a side hall here. The side hall is also called the Yuzhu Hall, and it is also dedicated to Empress Youxuan.
It was not late at night, but there was no one in the temple. The monks in the temple seemed not to see him at all, and allowed him to enter the Jade Mat Hall and closed the door.
Soon, Wu Yan followed the old method and opened the secret passage of the machine, went to the small secret room that was the same in every stronghold, took the pills placed in it, and passed out.
When he woke up, he had returned to the small room in Xiaoyu Pavilion.
After waiting for a while, the black man opened the door.
"Name." He said in a low voice.
Wu Yan responded calmly: "Wu Yan."
"Mission details." Heiliren said again.
Wu Yan responded: "On September 22, the nineteenth year of Qianhao, the pavilion sent a mission to Huailin Village, sixty-eight miles west of the capital, to find a new grave of a recently deceased person and open the coffin. Autopsy. "
"There is a corpse in the coffin, named Mei Congsheng. I slashed it with my sword, and it was broken into pieces, but the matter is still unfinished... The person who killed his father was his son Mei Lishen, and so on. The patron of this mission."
"Mei Li killed his father, used my power from Xiaoyu Pavilion to solve the trap left on his father's body, and then used poison to control his father's body and the whole village. To destroy my mouth...In the end, I have killed all of them, including Mei Lishen."
The Heili people listened carefully until the last sentence.
He raised his head abruptly, and his usually calm voice became a little hoarse: "You killed your employer?"
"..."
Wu Yan was silent for a moment and responded: "Yes."< br>
"What is the first of the nine major precepts of Xiaoyu Pavilion?" The voice of the black man became colder.
Wu Yan responded: "Don't kill your employer. Anyone who violates this rule will lose their souls."
"Yes." Heiliren said solemnly: "Although it was your employer who broke his promise and wanted to kill you, you did take action without reporting anything to your Majesty."
Wu Yan is humble. Head, I don’t know how to respond.
There was a local sound, it was the Heili man throwing down his short sword.
"Verify your identity first."
He said lightly: "Then, go see your Majesty and ask your Majesty to make your decision."
