Chapter 581 The Mastermind
"Sir, do you want to keep him alive?"
"Leave her alive. Take her away for interrogation. I don't think she is from Yue. She looks more like a member of our Da Qi. I want to see who wants to kill this little girl."
Yuwensong took a cold look at the survivor who was pinned to the ground. He was only breathing his last breath, and his jaw had been removed by Xiaotao.
"Yes, sir." Xiao Tao said, grabbed the black-clothed man's belt and quickly disappeared at the city gate.
"This Xiaotao is still so rude. No wonder she can't appreciate my outfit. Sigh, I don't know if she will be able to get married in the future."
Xiao Tao was carrying the killer across the eaves and walls when she suddenly sneezed without warning. She couldn't help but frowned. Could it be the cold wind?
Yuwensong turned his head to look at the father and daughter who were still lying on the ground, then went over and patted Wan Laoer on the back.
"Hey, brother, it's you again. Why are you here? We are really destined to meet."
Wan Laoer finally moved his stiff neck and saw clearly that the person coming was the peacock.
"My legs are weak and I can't get up." Wan Laoer said blushing.
Yuwen Song understood Wan Laoer's feelings very well. If an ordinary person was assassinated, his legs would be weak and it would be good if he didn't wet his pants. Moreover, the big brother just now should have deeply felt the moment of death. If he hadn't acted quickly, he would have been a corpse by now.
Yuwensong stretched out his long arm and pulled Wan Laoer up.
Fubao was protected by Wan Laoer and was almost unable to breathe.
Now she could finally breathe deeply.
"Thank you." Wan Laoer felt a little embarrassed. Before they released the lanterns, they suspected that the other person was a bad guy, but now they were saved by him. The slap in the face came too quickly. Wan Laoer, a simple farmer, felt awkward and he took a long time to say three words.
"Brother, you're welcome. It's just a small favor. But I don't think you are from any aristocratic family. How did you provoke enemies and have people assassinate you? You are not some hidden master, are you?" Yuwen Song looked gossipy.
Wan Lao Er quickly waved his hands, "Of course not, we are just ordinary farmers, not even wealthy businessmen. I don't know why someone would come to kill us."
Wan Laoer immediately started to explain, and Fubao ran over and pulled Wan Laoer's sleeve.
"Dad, since he saved us, we should express our gratitude. However, we don't have any expensive gifts to thank him, so how about we just bow to this big brother?"
Wan Lao Er immediately nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, my daughter is right. I had completely forgotten about this matter. Come and bow to the benefactor."
"Brother, no need. I can't bear it."
Yuwensong quickly stopped Fubao.
If Wan Xingmo knew about this, he would probably chase him for three blocks. When he was at the border, he always heard Wan Xingmo talk about this little girl. Now he finally saw her. She was indeed a pretty little girl, so adorable. How could he bear to let her bend down?
"Big brother, do you think our bow is not sincere enough?" Fubao looked at Yuwensong with his clear big eyes.
"Of course not, I just don't think it's necessary. Um, you guys should go back quickly. It's getting late. I also want to go back to bed. And here's this for you."
Yuwensong had been wearing the eagle lantern tied around his waist, and now he handed it directly to Fubao.
I hope that when the time comes, the little girl won’t tell Wan Xingmo off on him. After all, he stole her lantern. I hope that for the sake of returning the lantern to its original owner, the little girl will go easy on him.
Fubao wanted to thank Yuwensong, but Yuwensong had disappeared.
"Dad, shall we go back?"
"Well, okay, Fubao, do you think that young man doesn't look that bad? He looks kind. Apart from the fact that his clothes are a bit exaggerated, doesn't his temperament resemble that of your brother Mo? Especially when he's not smiling."
Fu Bao really didn't notice this, because the Yu Wensong he saw was always smiling and never had a cold face.
What Wan Lao Er saw was a quick glance at that time, and he saw the expression on Yu Wensong's face when he was dealing with those killers.
"Dad, I don't think anyone can compare to Brother Mo. Brother Mo is very powerful and invincible. Let's go back quickly before anything else happens."
"Okay, Daddy will carry you on his back. But, Fubao, where do you think these killers came from tonight?"
"Dad, I think he might not be from Yue Country. He might be from the capital."
.........
The father and daughter walked farther and farther away, and their voices gradually disappeared in the wind.
Yuwensong then came out from some corner, looked at the backs of the father and daughter, and a hint of contemplation flashed in his eyes.
Until Xiaotao appeared behind Yuwensong carrying a man with broken arms and legs.
"Sir, this guy confessed. They are assassins in the martial arts world, not assassins kept by aristocratic families, so I used a little trick and he was in trouble."
"Well, well done - oh, Xiao Tao'er, you are also a girl, how can you be so cruel?"
Yuwensong was still praising Xiaotao the moment before, but the moment he turned around, he saw a half-human, half-ghost heap lying on the ground. He staggered and jumped a few meters away, fanning him in disgust.
Xiao Tao rolled her eyes and said with disdain, "Sir, your acting skills are getting worse and worse."
"Oh? You figured out all this?" Yu Wensong didn't feel embarrassed at all. He walked to Xiao Tao, fanning himself, put one elbow on Xiao Tao's shoulder, gently lifted Xiao Tao's chin with one hand, and made a "tsk tsk" sound with his mouth.
"Xiao Tao, you are so cruel, who should I marry you to in the future? I am really afraid that your future husband might make you unhappy and you will turn him into a human pig. Wouldn't that be a harm to him?"
Xiao Tao glanced at Yu Wensong expressionlessly.
"Sir, don't you want to know who is the mastermind behind this? When Mr. Mo asks you about this, I'll see how you will explain it to him."
Yu Wensong's face immediately fell, "How boring! Why are you bringing up that icy face? Come on, tell me."
Yuwensong let go of Xiaotao and walked towards the city in a leisurely manner while talking.
"It was the princess of Prince Li's mansion who hired them."
After listening to this, Yuwen Song stopped, crossed his arms, frowned slightly, turned his head and asked: "Princess? When did that little girl offend the princess? She is really good at causing trouble. No wonder Wan Xingmo asked me to escort her back to the border personally. It seems that we will not be lonely on this journey. It just so happens that my hands are itching, so I will practice on them."
"Then what should we do with this person?" Xiao Tao took a look at the thing that had already crumpled onto the ground and raised her eyebrows.
"It's up to you, but you should go back and wash yourself clean before serving me. You will stink of blood."
Xiao Tao curled her lips and gave the killer a quick and decisive blow by piercing his heart with a sword.
