Chapter 30 Silver Fox
"Chu Dong, have you heard of this person?"

Gu Mo was a little surprised. He had never heard of this killer Silver Fox, but he didn't expect that Gu Chudong actually knew him.

"Well," Gu Chudong said, "I didn't pay attention to this aspect before, so naturally I didn't know. But since you became the ghostwriter, I have been paying close attention to the wanted criminals in the martial arts world. The reward for this Silver Fox is very high, even higher than that for Feilong, a full three thousand taels.

This Silver Fox is a newly emerged killer in the past two years. He has only made nine moves in total, and each time he killed some big shots. He has never failed. However, the reason why he is famous is because of his style of doing things.

This man is very arrogant. Most killers and hunters are secretive, afraid of being discovered, but this Silver Fox is different. He is very high-profile. He always gives advance notice before killing and clearly tells the target the date of his attack. Even so, he has never failed. Therefore, in just two years, with only nine attacks, he has been hailed as the number one killer in Yunzhou.

Gu Mo sighed, "So arrogant indeed."

Yan Sanniang also said, "He's certainly arrogant, but he has reason to be. He's elusive, even though he always gives advance notice. His targets are always prominent figures in the martial arts world. He takes every precaution, yet he always succeeds. Even now, no one has even seen his true face."

Gu Mo asked, "Then, if that's the case, then Wang Yuanbao, who was given a death notice, will definitely make a big fuss about it?"

Yan Sanniang nodded slightly and said, "Wang Yuanbao is the richest man in Yong'an County. He owns many businesses and ranks among the top ten in Linjiang County in terms of wealth. He is also a top-notch martial artist.

This time, after receiving the death notice of Silver Fox, Wang Yuanbao contacted the government immediately. The Six Gates attached great importance to it. At present, Zhuo Qingfeng, the chief detective of the Six Gates in Linjiang County and known as the Swift Wind Detective, has personally led a team of experts to Yong'an County.

However, Wang Yuanbao doesn't trust the Six Gates very much and is also very worried about Silver Fox's methods. Therefore, he has also issued a bounty order to the martial arts world. As far as I know, the three Zhuifenglou in Dongyang, Fuwei, and Xinyixing have accepted the commission and sent their top-level ghostwriters to help. The bounty is as high as 6,000 taels. In addition, the ghostwriters will receive an additional 500 taels as hard work fee, regardless of whether they succeed or not.

Gu Mo sighed, "As expected of the richest man, he's so generous. However, Boss Yan, you also said that this was a commission from Wang Yuanbao himself. These three Chasing Wind Towers are the three strongest in Linjiang County. How about your Bu Er Villa?"

Yan Sanniang chuckled and said, "Young Master Gu, you don't have to worry about that. If you're willing to take this mission, I'll have a way to get Wang Yuanbao to commission our Bu Er Villa. This is a great opportunity for Bu Er Villa to make a name for itself. I'm not kidding. This Silver Fox is no ordinary person. Add in the government bounty, the scattered bounties, and Wang Yuanbao's 6,000 taels, and you'll have nearly 12,000 taels. According to our 70/30 split rule, if you successfully kill this person, you can get over 8,000 taels."

At this moment,
At this moment, a system prompt sounded in Gu Mo's mind:

【New target detected】

Wanted Target: Silver Fox

[Mission Level—Four Stars]

[Quest Reward—Maximum Level Xiao Li's Flying Dagger]

……

Hearing about the system reward, Gu Mo was excited.

The existence of Xiao Li Feidao is a kind of spiritual power that has gone beyond martial arts in the general sense.

According to Gu Mo's guess, this martial art should have surpassed the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms in terms of realm. This does not refer to combat power, nor does it mean that Xiao Li Flying Dagger will definitely be stronger than the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, but in terms of the martial arts concept, it is higher than the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

The training direction of Xiao Li Feidao is exactly the second martial arts truth among the three training directions mentioned by Shen Bai before, which focuses on the training of will.

"I can give it a try." Gu Mo said.

Hearing what Gu Mo said, Yan Sanniang smiled. She had worked with Gu Mo once before and had a lot of contact with him during this period. She knew that Gu Mo never liked to speak too confidently.

So, when Gu Mo said to give it a try, it meant that he accepted the task.

"it is good,"

Yan Sanniang said, "Well, there are still five days left. It only takes two days to get to Yong'an County from here. Don't worry too much. You can wait for my news peacefully and have a good rest these few days. I also need some time to get Wang Yuanbao's commission."

"it is good."

Gu Mo knew that with Wang Yuanbao's status, it would be impossible for him to invite ordinary people, and his current reputation among the ghostwriters was far inferior to that of the gold medal ghostwriter. But fortunately, he had the record of killing the flying dragon and the reputation publicized by Shen Bai, plus Yan Sanniang's connections, so he would definitely get this commission.

Soon, Yan Sanniang left.
Before leaving, he left behind some information about Silver Fox, mainly about his martial arts displays, habits, and so on. Gu Chudong watched it very carefully and described it to Gu Mo in great detail, giving Gu Mo a rough idea of ​​Silver Fox. He was a man with extremely fast sword movements and very advanced Qinggong skills. He came and went like the wind, his moves were clean and neat, and his strikes always killed people with a single blow.

……

The next day.

According to the established plan, Gu Mo and Gu Chudong invited their respective friends to their homes. There were only six people in total, two of whom were Gu Chudong's good friends. One was Qu Heng's daughter Qu Xiao, and the other was the granddaughter of an old escort chief of Changfeng Escort Agency.

Gu Mo invited four people, all of whom were escorts with whom he had a good relationship in Changfeng Escort Agency, and he especially invited Qu Heng.

Gu Chudong went to invite the other people, but Qu Heng was invited by Gu Mo himself.

Qu Heng's family lives in a small alley among residential houses.

Hearing that it was Gu Mo who came, Qu Heng, who was resting, quickly got up from the bed and walked out while getting dressed. As soon as he saw Gu Mo in the living room, he said, "Ah Mo, when did you come back? I just happened to have something to give you." As he spoke, Qu Heng looked at his daughter Qu Xiao who was chatting with Gu Chudong and said, "Xiaoxiao, go to my study and get me the bundle in the middle of the second floor."

"okay."

Qu Xiao is a carefree person. He is about the same age as Gu Chudong. He has also practiced martial arts since childhood. He acts in a bold and neat manner. He ran out of the door in a hurry and soon returned with a bag.

At this time, Gu Mo and Qu Heng were drinking tea.

Qu Heng took the bundle and handed it to Gu Mo, saying, "Amo, here is one hundred taels of silver."

Gu Mo smiled and said, "Uncle Qu, you are so rich. I am moving to a new house, so why are you giving me such a big red envelope as a gift?"

Qu Heng waved his hand and said, "I'm not that rich. This is the compensation I begged for you from the escort agency. A few days ago, when I came back from Zhushan County, I went to find the young master Yang Yan and beat him up. He's still lying in bed and can't get out of bed. After I beat him up, he finally told the truth. The boss Yang Fang was dishonest and gave up on you, but he wasn't so ruthless as to give you a hundred taels of silver as compensation, but Yang Yan embezzled some of it."

Gu Mo laughed and said, "Uncle Qu, you have really offended Yang Yan."

"I can't kill him," Qu Heng said. "If he dares to cause me trouble, I'll just quit. If I leave, I'll at least take a dozen of his best men with me and let him join another escort agency. I'll see if Yang Fang kills him."

Gu Mo chuckled, took the bundle, and said, "Uncle Qu, I'll take the money. This is what Changfeng Escort Agency owes me. I was originally planning to go to their house in person to ask for compensation, but now that it's already been paid, let it go."

Gu Mo had some resentment towards Changfeng Escort Agency, but he didn't have any deep hatred. To be precise, it was the young master Yang Yan who took advantage of the situation. The master Yang Fang was not a good person, but he didn't do anything out of line. Although Yang Yan said some vicious words, he didn't do anything excessive like fighting.

So, there will be no hatred.

Now that Gu Mo has accepted the money, it means that the grudge is over.

Afterwards, Gu Mo mentioned inviting Qu Heng to attend the housewarming party.

"Tomorrow? I'm afraid it won't work tomorrow."

However, after hearing this, Qu Heng shook his head and said, "You just saw it. I'm resting now to get enough energy. I'm leaving to escort the convoy tonight."

Gu Mo was surprised and asked, "What kind of escort is it? Setting off at night?"

Qu Heng whispered, "For just one large escort, the Changfeng Escort Agency's government bond reached two hundred thousand taels. It was led by the Chief Escort himself, with twelve escort leaders and over fifty veteran escorts. We don't even know what it is or where it's going. Only the Chief Escort knows."

Gu Mo knew that this was definitely something extraordinary, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "Well, Uncle Qu, please be careful. When you come back, come to my house and we'll have a good drink."

"no problem."
