Guests Coming Again - C4

The old man listened to the entire story of the assassination attempt on the prefectural government of Shunjin.

He nodded slightly. His movements were crisp and clean. He didn’t shed any mud or water. It seemed like he had always remembered the principles that he had taught him. Lion Kick Rabbit also used his full strength. To be an assassin, to be an assassin, one had to be meticulous and quick in thinking, to be strict in his work and to carry out his assassination plan.

If you mess up your mind and choose to face others face to face, you can be seen as giving up your roots and attacking the enemy for short periods of time. The result was completely different from what he had expected. He might even end up losing his life.

As an assassin, one’s state of mind was the best.

Strict work, meticulous second.

The mind is active and agile, and the work is done in the third place without a care in the world.

It was easy to say, but actually, it was extremely difficult to do all of these things. If there were a few mistakes in the plan, if the mindset had already collapsed, they would be followed by a series of mistakes. If you’re not sharp enough, if you’re not quick enough, one of you can lead to a fatal mistake.

The meticulous implementation of this technique could eliminate a lot of unnecessary burdens and avoid unnecessary trouble.

This time, when the Cardinal went to assassinate the Prefect, the Prefect’s estate had originally been guarded very strictly.

However, no matter how strict the guards were, there would always be a loophole. Assassins needed to find this loophole and take advantage of it. This loophole would be the breakthrough point for things to happen, as well as a breakthrough point for strict defense.

In order to assassinate him, he had actually arrived half a month ahead of schedule.

When they arrived at Shunjin City, they found a small restaurant near the Prefect’s mansion. Go scout the terrain every day. In the middle of the night, he went to check out the structure of the Prefecture Residence.

The prefectural manor of the Shunjin Prefecture was indeed worthy of being known as the largest local estate. The Prefect’s mansion had its own small garden, and the exquisite workmanship of the garden was astounding. There was also a small lake in the mansion, and a person’s mansion took up approximately a thousand acres of land.

There are land dragons to warm up in winter. As for the poor families, some might not even be able to burn firewood.

There was a north front gate and a west east side gate. There were always people inside the manor. There were guards patrolling the manor at night. He was constantly patrolling during the day. However, they were not the same people. Presumably, one team was responsible for the day and the other for the night.

The Cardinal did not necessarily leave during the day. He climbed up to the roof during the day to check on the patrolling patterns of the people on duty during the day. Every pavilion had two people patrolling it about a quarter of an hour.

There were advantages and disadvantages to occupying a wide area. It took up a huge amount of land, so there was bound to be an oversight in the patrol.

Within 15 days, Cardinal arrived at the mansion. He observed the place day and night and began to draw a simple map on a piece of paper.

Observe the movements of the butler.

Observe the watch pattern of the patrol, the intervals of the patrol.

Ten nights of preparation.

They finally found their pattern.

He drew up a route and practiced it twice.

Every day during the day, he would bitterly watch the Prefect’s movements.

He finally found out about the prefect’s little hobby. That was reading.

The Prefect would often go to his study to read. Normally, there wouldn’t be anyone in the study. It was because he enjoyed reading in peace and quiet, so he didn’t want anyone to disturb him.

Perhaps there were other secrets hidden in the study.

The fourteenth of January entered the city until the end of January.

After a daily inspection, the inspection was conducted every night. From time to time, the inspection was conducted. Finally, the Cardinal decided to assassinate him in his study.

February 1st.

After a good night’s sleep, Cardinal bought a few cakes. With some apprehension, he prepared to make his move.

Upon entering the mansion, he was extremely familiar with the route. It was as though he had entered his own courtyard. He estimated that there was still one more minute of patrolling time. He lurked behind the stone garden he had chosen earlier. The patrol had just passed and was flying up to the roof. His body was as light as a swallow, and he guessed that there would be a servant passing by. He lowered his body slightly, hiding the dead angle of the roof’s eaves. Even if he looked at the roof’s eaves, he might not be able to discover it, much less a servant who did not have any martial arts skills.

In the study, he lifted the ceiling and hung it from the beam. Hibernate. Using the Turtle Aura Technique, one’s breathing would be at its lowest. If one wasn’t a martial arts expert, then no one would be able to discover that there was a person hiding on the beam.

A thousand miles of dike was destroyed by an ant’s nest. The giant estate was filled with holes.

Cardinal had chosen the safest and most conservative method. It could be said that it was a mantis stalking a cicada, or it could be said that it was just waiting for a rabbit.

All he could be sure of was that the rabbit would come. This was because he had discovered the prefect’s habit of coming to the study every two days.

After waiting for an entire day, the Prefect entered his study at noon the next day and began to take out some paper, grind it, and write. His chest was filled with a rich brocade, and his calligraphy was flawless.

When he had just finished writing and placed his brush and ink on the table.

Cardinal Cheng asked, “Are you the Prefect’s dog official, Yang Yongkang?”

The man below replied, “You knew I was the Prefect, yet you still dared to call out my name. I’ll exterminate your entire clan.”

His body and mind flashed as his hand raised up and cut down the man’s throat. It was so fast that the man had no time to react and could only breath. The strength of the attack was just right.

Then he began to ask, “Following General Yang Yongxin on the road is a crime, right? Stealing eighteen households for a commoner, is it not so? The first one was destroyed by you. Yes and no? ”

“When you are travelling, you took the head of someone because they were blocking your way, right? “In order to embezzle a hundred acres of fertile land, you put the landlord’s family into prison without any noise, tortured them until they handed over the land deed, and then killed them all, right?”

He called his name before, and judging by his reaction, it was him. Although he was an assassin, he didn’t want to kill people unrelated to him.

Now, reading his crime, seeing his tears, he was sure he had no doubt about it. A minute later he was dead.

He first went to the city, had a meal, and then left the city leisurely.

Cardinal explained to his master in detail how he had investigated, how he had arranged the situation, and how he had succeeded in his assassination attempt.

The master slightly nodded, obviously satisfied with my treatment this time. Looking at his master’s appearance, his heart couldn’t help but leap with joy.

His Master cleared his throat and said, “This time, you have done very well, but there are still some flaws. After killing someone, you should leave the scene as soon as possible, and you should omit the crime announcement, so it’s not very wise to call for help before the assassination. If a martial arts expert hears the voice, they will inevitably be on guard, and if your martial arts cannot defeat him, you will fail the assassination.” His identity should be decided beforehand, and it would be best if he could see his face clearly on the beam and make a move. Furthermore, you left the city swiftly after the assassination, yet you still went to eat lunch and drink some wine before leaving? ”

Cardinal laughed, “Isn’t it because only the person involved in this assassination saw me? No one can testify against me anymore. ”

The old man nodded and said, “Everything needs to be done with caution. The more strict the situation, the fewer mistakes there will be. …”

Cardinal’s face was sincere as he replied, “Yes, I understand. I will definitely remember what Master said.”

The old man crossed his arms and said, “Come with me. You have already reached the top, but I did not give you a proper gift. This time, you have done very well. I think that since you have also grown up, I will pass it on to you.”

Then he walked to a cabinet that was filled with dust. There was a small box in the cabinet. It had not been opened for a long time and was a little rusty.

The old man picked up the box, opened it and took out a box about twenty-five inches long.

Angele opened the box and found a dagger inside. The black pattern on the scabbard didn’t have any patterns on it, it was just a few curved lines. However, he could still feel that chilling aura from the scabbard.

“Master, this is …?”

“This is the Soul Absorbing Blade. From today onwards, he belongs to you. You need to use it well, don’t disgrace your famous blade. ”

Cardinal took the box.

He gave a deep bow. “Yes!” This child will definitely live up to his name. ”

Many years ago, there was a slang in the martial arts world.

Under the Soul Absorbing Blade, there were many departed souls. Ye Xing had killed a Saint with his surname of Ye.
