【Kuan Xin】Snake and Venom

Tang Shun sat on the slump, closed his eyes and concentrated on his thoughts. Suddenly, there was a sound of pushing the door and entering, followed by the sound of light footsteps. He slowly opened his eyes, and his voice was clear: "Have Yuan Zhongxin and the others set off?"

The wooden housekeeper nodded respectfully: "I set off when it was just gray and gray today. I took the rolling road from Longde Mansion to Taiyuan Mansion on Hedong Road. Mr. Yuan said that it might take three or four days to get to the border of Song Dynasty. .”

Tang Shun didn't say a word, his eyes were lowered in thought.

It will take at least two days to enter the border of Great Xia from the border of the Great Song Dynasty. The 29 people are divided into three groups. If there is no accident, it will take at least seven days for the three groups of people to meet up.

Thinking of this, Tang Shun raised his eyes to look directly at the wooden steward, and said, "Order, tell Shili and the others to leave for Wumu Village in five days, and find Gu Shi and others to meet them. Remember to bring those boxes of drugs over there too." ——It takes a lot of time to prepare, so tell them to pay more attention and make no mistakes."

The wooden steward looked solemn, and he nodded solemnly and said: "This subordinate takes orders." Then, he asked suspiciously: "Master, when will you go to find Mr. Yuan and the others?"

Tang Shun pondered for a moment, and said calmly: "It's not so fast. It will take at least five days for Yuan Zhongxin to reach the second tomb entrance. If we arrive too early, it will easily attract people's attention. God, I will inform you in advance to prepare."

The wood steward nodded, half understanding.

Tang Shun suddenly remembered the Lin family in Yidu whom he had sent to thoroughly investigate, his eyes flickered: "The Lin family in Yidu, have you found any clues?"

The wooden steward looked troubled, and his brows gradually showed seriousness: "The subordinates are not doing their best. I only found out that there are two close friends around Lin Yao, a man and a woman. The woman is quite old. Lin Yao seems to respect her very much. Call her Tea Mammy, and as for the man, his name, age and origin are unknown, but he is very skilled and ruthless, and he is Lin Yao's right-hand man when he is out on the job."

Tang Shun frowned slightly, looking at the face of the wooden steward who blamed himself, he smiled slightly, and comforted him: "Lin Yao has been lurking in the Song Dynasty for so long without being discovered, which shows her cautious and suspicious character, and now she can be found out." The two confidantes around me are lucky, and Manager Mu doesn't have to blame himself."

After hearing this, the wooden steward felt even more ashamed, he sighed secretly, and asked in a deep voice: "Then do the Lin family need to continue to send people to investigate?"

Tang Xuan shook his head lightly: "Don't pursue it any further, it's easy for our people to expose their traces, but it's still necessary to find someone to follow, you let Qifeng and Baman continue to monitor the Lin family, and if there is anything unusual, write a secret report immediately Go back to the dark soldiers and ask them to send more people over—but remember, you must not disturb the guys from the Wing Sect.”

The wooden steward: "Young master, don't worry, these subordinates are clear about it, and I will take good care of them."

Tang Shun was as clear as a mirror about Steward Wood's ability to handle affairs. He felt a little relieved, and noticed Steward Wood's hesitant expression, he asked suspiciously: "Boss Wood, do you have any questions?" ?”

The wooden steward scratched his forehead embarrassingly, and said hesitantly: "There is still one thing I can't understand. Didn't Mr. Yuan say that the other five people from Qizhai could not be involved? The young master is waiting for someone to follow?"

What Yuan Zhongxin was most worried about was that Wang Kuan and the others would be involved in danger. This time the dungeon was obviously a reminder, but he actually agreed to the accompanying five people, which really surprised Mu Guanshi.

Tang Shun's eyes faltered for a moment, and he smiled suddenly, with helplessness in his eyes: "Yuan Zhongxin is going to the underground city, such a big trip, do you think he can hide it?" How long does it take, instead of waiting for Wang Kuan and the others to catch up after they find something strange, it is better to take them with them from the beginning, so as to minimize the risk and the probability of accidents."

What's more, Kaifeng is not very peaceful now, and Yuan Zhongxin is not at ease to keep any of them in Kaifeng.

On balance, bringing them all with me seems to be the best surefire solution.

The wooden steward was full of worries: "Will Wang Gongzi and the others be willing to act according to Yuan Gongzi's plan? Wang Gongzi thinks so much about Yuan Gongzi, so he will definitely not want to."

The light in Tang Shun's eyes was dark and cold, he frowned and sighed: "Cut first and play later, he can't help but not want to."

After the wood steward left, the room was quiet, needles could be heard, and occasionally a breeze blew from the window, making the candles flicker. Tang Shun sat alone on the soft bed, his eyes were piercing, and his handsome face was dark and unclear.

Ah Shun came out, and he asked puzzledly, "Tang Shun, are you in a bad mood?"

Tang Shun lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly: "No, I'm just a little envious."

Ah Shun was stunned for a moment, and had a faint guess in his heart, but he still asked, "Who do you envy?"

Tang Shun's palms unconsciously closed into fists, his voice was no longer as clear as before, he gritted his teeth slightly: "Wang Kuan."

In this scene, what made Yuan Zhongxin frown and distressed was not the half-life in his body, nor the inner ghosts that appeared in the Song Dynasty, nor the secret agents sent by Da Xia to deal with him.

It was Wang Kuan.

Everything Yuan Zhongxin did was for him.

Yuan Zhongxin's temperament is so deviant, and etiquette is intolerable, he could have used more radical and outrageous methods to fight back, he could have faced Daxia's enemies head-on regardless.

But Wang Kuan restricted him. Yuan Zhongxin thought about it, and the plan he came up with after racking his brains would be completely overturned because of Wang Kuan's words. Every move he made was Wang Kuan who considered the most.

Tang Shun rarely had direct contact with Wang Kuan, except for the time in Qinghe Town, he had no chance to meet him at all, but in his heart, Wang Kuan had become the person he admired most, even, he was somewhat envy.

Jealous of Wang Kuan is so important in Yuan Zhongxin's heart.

Ah Shun yelled worriedly: "Tang Shun."

Tang Shun came back to his senses, smiled wryly, rubbed the center of his brows, and suddenly felt exhausted: "Don't worry, I won't lose sight of the priority at the moment - I'm just curious, when will there be such a person You can think of me like this..."

Ah Shun felt as if a boulder had been pressed down on his heart, feeling deeply depressed and depressed, he hesitated to speak, he hesitated for a long time, but in the end he still couldn't ask the words out.

In fact, he really wanted to ask Tang Shun whether he envied Wang Kuan because he didn't have such a person around him, or because he fell in love with Yuan Zhongxin.

If it was because of the former, Ah Shun had nothing to say, but if it was because of the latter, Tang Shun might have lost completely.

Yidulin's family.

Lin Yao washed the blood on her hands expressionlessly. After a while, the clear water in the basin suddenly turned into a basin of bloody water, which looked horrifying, but she was already used to the dazzling color, so she picked up a handkerchief and wiped it off. She turned into those green fingers and delicate white hands again. She glanced at the blood-stained person lying on the ground, her eyes were full of disgust, she took a sip of her tea, and her delicate voice condensed: "Yuan Zhongxin Woolen cloth?"

Tea Mama's hoarse and vicissitudes of life sounded: "Let's go."

Lin Yao squinted her eyes, her face flashed fiercely, she was dissatisfied and said fiercely: "I said that I can design against him in Kaifeng, but I just want to force him to go to that boring dungeon. Someone played with me!"

Mammy Cha bowed, her voice was calm: "Don't worry, my lord, when Yuan Zhongxin belongs to the Yinbing Pavilion in the future, you will have more time in the future."

Lin Yao twirled her fingertips and a few small knives were scattered in front of her. Her eyes were cold, and she raised her eyebrows slightly: "Belonging to the Yinbing Pavilion? It's easy to say, but Yuan Zhongxin's tricks and schemes are not comparable to everyone Yes, is he willing to submit obediently?"

Viciousness flashed across Mammy Cha's eyes: "Yuan Zhongxin is greedy for life and afraid of death, so he can do whatever it takes to protect himself. Now he is half dead, and there is less than half a month left, and the incubation period is about to end. He should know how to choose between submission and death." It is."

Lin Yao was noncommittal to Madam Cha's words, her bone-piercing eyes turned, and she landed on the trembling, shattered person on the ground, she suddenly smiled softly, her face was delicate and delicate, but in fact it was hideous and sinister, she squatted down, her eyes were like looking at ants , she opened her lips slightly: "How about it, isn't it very uncomfortable?"

The man trembled even more, his breath was short of breath, his mouth was full of blood, and he couldn't speak clearly. He looked at the girl in front of him in horror, like a demon.

Lin Yao smiled even more happily: "It's really uncomfortable to have your tongue gouged out. I think my cousin was in pain too." Her eyes were condensed, and she reached out and grabbed the man's hair with great force Just about to pull his scalp away, Lin Yao gritted his teeth, and said in a cold tone, "Who told you that you should absolutely not, and want to report to Yuan Zhongxin? Huh?"

"You shouldn't betray me like this. If you want to inform me, I'll cut off your tongue. If you want to escape, I'll cut off your hands and feet. But if you want to die, I won't let you. I want you to die. People live like ghosts!"

Lin Yao flicked the hair he was pulling tightly in his hand, and the man's head was smashed to the ground with a "boom", a cut was cut on his forehead, and the blood continued to flow. Lin Yao stood up in disgust, and shook his head. He wiped away the blood stains on his hands.

Mammy Cha stepped forward and handed over a new, clean and white handkerchief at the right time: "My lord, what should I do with this person?"

Lin Yao said indifferently: "Kill it."

Just as Mother Cha was about to nod her head, Lin Yao suddenly changed her tone: "Wait." She stared at the man with messy hair and blood on the ground, and suddenly thought of a vicious idea: "Let him go, It's best to go to the secret pavilion, and when you come back from the dungeon, you will receive such a big gift, Yuan Zhongxin should thank me very much."

Mammy Cha asked, "Aren't you afraid that he will inform you?"

Lin Yao smiled viciously: "Who would believe a fool's report? I want Yuan Zhongxin to take a good look at what kind of retribution those people who helped him got in the end."

"Not even you, my dear brother."
