“Crack—”
When I opened the door of You Hong's bedroom, I saw an extremely simple room.
There is no TV, just a bedside table, a bed and a wardrobe. It couldn't be simpler.
If I have to say what decoration it is, it would be the family photo on the bedside table.
The picture above shows a woman holding the hand of a six-year-old boy who looks 60% like Miyamoto Keiji. The man next to her looks like You Hong when he was young.
Surrounding them was a group of people, both men and women, wearing loose Yamato swordsmith uniforms and with smiles on their faces.
Among them, You Hong's face was also filled with smiles, with a pitch-black samurai sword on his waist, and his arms were not as thin and weak as they are now. On the contrary, they were strong and powerful, with full muscle lines.
It was a family photo.
With a "thump", You Hong on his shoulder fell onto the bed and curled up in the quilt.
It’s hard to imagine what happened and why he became the skinny chef he is now.
Where did the people in the photo go?
Louis shook his head slowly, stopped thinking, turned around and left You Hong's bedroom.
"Good night, boss."
“Crack—”
Louis closed the door casually.
At this moment, You Hong, who was curled up in bed, slowly opened his sharp eyes.
"Didn't you do anything?"
"Strange, who sent him?"
"What's the purpose?"
"Aren't they... sent by the Yucheng family to kill me?"
"…Then I did say something I shouldn't have said."
You Hong’s previous words were just to make Louis sure that he was the person the other party was looking for.
The Tamashiro family was the one that was hunting him down in Yamato, and You Hong misunderstood that Louis was sent by Tamashiro to assassinate him.
In other words, what You Hong just said was somewhat redundant.
He scratched his head and said, "Forget it, never mind. I really can't figure out what I have that is worth being remembered for."
You Hong sighed, and as the alcohol took over his body, he slowly closed his eyes.
Ten minutes later.
You Hong opened his eyes again, and this time he was really confused.
"Could I have guessed wrong?"
"?"
"So why on earth does this guy want to work in my store?"
"No, I have to ask clearly tomorrow..."
You Hong tossed and turned, talking to himself.
He was pretending to doze off just now, and thought that Louis deliberately saw that he was not drunk before, and wanted to wait for him to let down his guard before breaking into the door and attacking him.
Didn't you expect that you were overthinking it?
Yes, if he was really a killer, why didn't he take action when they first met?
But if that’s the case, what is the identity of the other party?
He didn't think it was a joke. College students earn 140 yuan a day, and he offered 100 yuan, which was too little.
Could it be that this person is stupid?
One hundred dollars a day working here for two months?
How is that possible!
Cows and horses are no more than this, right?
This is even though you provide your own food and accommodation, otherwise the other party will make a shitty profit!
Anyway, the salary is too low, and Louis refuses to bargain, so there must be something wrong!
It seems that I have to find a time tomorrow to ask clearly...
Thinking of this, You Hong gradually fell asleep.
No wonder——
An hour later, You Hong stared at the ceiling with wide eyes, "Damn it, I can't sleep!"
It's like having a steel knife clamped on your neck, and if you move, the knife will cut your throat.
Dare you move?
Um?
I dare not sleep!
On the other side, in Louis' bedroom.
He leaned against the head of the bed, staring at the bright moon outside the window, constantly thinking of a strategy in his mind.
The current situation is actually very disadvantageous to me.
Although I have some clues, my cultivation has stagnated.
Hei Yi simply gave up on looking for clues and chose to improve his cultivation. By then, he would definitely not be able to stop them.
Moreover, Guimen and Qianye are two time bombs.
If help is sent at that time, I will really become the weaker party.
Don’t be fooled by how powerful you are now, as you have several Templar Knights under you.
It's actually nothing.
If Hei Yi breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, then the threat from the Templars will no longer be a threat, but even a source of nourishment...
Therefore, he must get rid of the Knights Templar before Hei Yi breaks through, and he will take these points.
One thousand points will be added at that time, but it has to be done step by step. Now their suspicion has been aroused.
So dealing with them must be secretive.
As for the clues about the Black Lotus, at present, there is only one line about You Hong. I don’t know if it is correct. If it is not correct, I am afraid I will have to start all over again.
Moreover, in order to protect itself, the identity of the Court of All Living Beings will most likely have to be abandoned.
No Templar Knights should be left alive, and all of them should be turned into my points.
At that time, without help from others, it would be extremely difficult to find the black lotus in this huge Tianhe.
But even so, there is no other way.
At that time, I will have to leave Tianhe temporarily and go to Humen to find another Black Lotus.
If there are still no clues here.
Louis slowly lowered his body and curled up in the quilt, then waved his finger and turned off the light.
The night is long.
sleep--
good evening.
…
Glory City.
Court of all beings.
"Yes—the Pope."
A black hall carved entirely from lunar rock.
A woman half-knelt down towards the figure sitting on the throne, "We will definitely reach Tianhe within two days."
The figure on the throne wore a golden mask, revealing dark eyes. "Remember your mission on this journey. Assist Beto. Bring Beto back to me within three days after your arrival."
"The resentful woman will definitely complete the mission--" said a woman in a black gauze dress and a silver mask, bending down gracefully.
"This is the immortal weapon, the Tiancongyun Sword. Give it to Beto and ask him to complete the mission as soon as possible and return to the Holy See with you."
As he spoke, the figure extended a finger, and a single-blade, guardless katana appeared out of thin air.
The whole body exudes a faint green light, and the blade slightly flashes with a bit of snake scale texture.
Legend has it that the sword Ame-no-Gun was a divine sword that Susanoo found from the tail of the Yamata-no-Orochi after he killed it.
The hilt is inlaid with crystal.
The resentful woman stretched out her hands, and the Tiancongyun Sword slowly and steadily fell in front of her.
"You can't touch the blade. This sword is so sharp that it can cut through iron like mud. You can only hold the handle."
"This scabbard is made of the skin of the World Tree. It can perfectly seal this sword."
As he spoke, a wooden scabbard covered with dragon patterns appeared, and the Tian Congyun sword was inserted into it.
Finally, it landed steadily on the hands of the resentful woman.
"Remember, your mission this time is to assist Beto. No matter what he does, you must assist him, and the ultimate goal is to bring him back to the Vatican."
“Yes—the Pope!!!”
