Chapter 242 Shopkeeper, Wang Xuance

"Taiyuan accent!"

"Recently entering Luoyang!"

Currently, only these two features can be checked.

But the scope of this screening is too large.

Xu Mu is actually not confident about this.

So, he found Fan Zhu...

"In the past few days, among the visitors of Xianweiju, are there any unfamiliar faces?" Xu Mu asked emphatically.

With the entry of Wanmin City into Luoyang City, Xianweiju has completely formed a monopoly.

Whether it is the people of Luoyang, or people who come to Luoyang from other places, when it comes to eating, Xianweiju is the first choice!

And these dead men...

They are going to die, the benefactor's father must have given them a lot of money!

When people are about to die, food comes first, Xu Mu still doesn't believe that they will not go to Xianweiju!

"Wait for my subordinates to investigate!"

After Fan Zhu learned about Sun Ying's assassination, he was also filled with righteous indignation, and began to call the waiters from the eight major restaurants in the city.

Take turns asking.

Soon, a waiter in Xianweijuli, Kangrenli, told what happened in his impression: "It should be eight days ago, when six people came to the restaurant together, and they ordered all kinds of big dishes. , spend money like water, so the small ones are particularly impressive."

"In the end, they boasted that they could drink too much, and they ordered our Xianweiju's signature wine, and then..."

"After a few drinks, they were all drunk, and one of them couldn't help speaking with a Taiyuan accent."

The waiter recalled it many times, and Fan Zhu confirmed it again and again before bringing him to Xu Mu.

After Xu Mu heard this, his heart sank.

These few people are indeed qualified.

And according to Xiao Er's description, these people are all burly, and at first glance they seem to be the sons of Lianjia who have wandered around the rivers and lakes.

"Where did they go in the end?" Xu Mu stared at Xiao Er and asked himself.

The waiter looked at Xu Mu. Although he didn't know the identity of the person in front of him, he knew that he was a person who could reach the heavens when he saw the way his boss respected him.

That's why his voice trembled a little: "In the end... in the end they were... sent out of the restaurant by villains, I only know that they were heading east... oh, by the way, before they left, they bought about ten catties Spirits..."

Xu Mu then nodded slightly.

The waiter in the shop in front of him is different from other waiters. He speaks clearly, and he can still remember what happened eight days ago so clearly.

"What's your name?" Xu Mu asked before letting him go down.

The waiter in the shop was so frightened that he froze, and quickly said: "Little... villain...named Wang Xuance."

Xu Mu nodded and waved him down.

Then he looked at Fan Zhu and told him: "Let all the mistresses pay attention in the past few days. If anyone comes again, or to buy wine or something, keep them."

Fan Zhu was a little puzzled, and asked, "Should the people who bought the wine also stay?"

Xu Mu stood up, looked out the window, and said in a deep voice, "They are all dead men, so they must be fond of spirits. Last time they bought more than ten catties, eight days have passed, and I am afraid they have almost finished drinking it!"

Xu Mu took a deep breath, and then said: "Besides, one of their companions died, so they have to see him off. What if there is no wine? As long as they dare to come, Xianweiju will be the place where they will die!"

……

In an inn in Kangrenli.

Five people crowded into a room.

While lowering his voice, the oldest one of them said in a deep voice: "The mission His Highness entrusted to us has been completed! I was lurking outside Yangcheng's mansion yesterday, and I heard the old five shouting inside!"

This is their agreed signal.

If the assassination is successful...

Just yell.

If it fails, it will be silent.

Of course, if they really yelled, the fifth child in their mouth would not be able to survive.

After all, each of them has a poison sac between their teeth.

Although it is impossible to die immediately, without medical treatment, within two hours, he will definitely die!
"So good!"

Then, the group of people looked quite excited: "Since this is the case, I will not be indebted to Your Highness for supporting me!"

None of them mourned the death of the fifth child.

They are all dead after all.

Everyone is ready to die at any moment.

"It's just that now... Luoyang city is closed, we can't go back to Chang'an..." one of them said suddenly.

"Don't panic! It's normal to close the city! They don't have any clues. As long as we don't expose our Taiyuan accent, there are nearly a million people in Luoyang. They will never catch us!" Another person explained.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they are dead soldiers, they don't want to die unless necessary.

"But our wine...doesn't seem to be much?" The five people looked at each other, then looked at the wine jar in the corner, and someone suddenly said.

Mention the wine of Xianweiju, these dead men will have endless aftertaste.

They are still resistant to food.

But for good wine, especially spirits, there is no resistance at all...

"Why don't we go to Xianweiju to buy some more?" Someone swallowed and suggested.

The five of them looked at each other, thinking...

At this pass, do you want to take a risk?

……

"Wang Xuance? It can't be the Wang Xuance who destroyed a country by one person, right?"

After the waiter in the shop in Xianweiju left, Xu Mu reacted.

Especially the word Wang Xuance, in later generations, is simply like a thunderbolt.

During the Tang Dynasty, the most outstanding diplomat...

Going to India as an envoy has created an impressive record of destroying a country by one person!

Very legendary!

And the most legendary thing about this person is that in the history books, his first half life...

There is no record.

I only know that he is from Luoyang.

The first time he appeared in the history books was in the 17th year of Zhenguan, as a deputy envoy, escorting the envoys of the Brahmin Kingdom back home.

Then started a life like cheating.

"It can't be really Wang Xuance, can it? In the first half of his life, he was so poor that he was a waiter in a shop?" Xu Mu felt a little unbelievable.

But think about the salary I paid to the waiter in the shop...

Not to mention, if Wang Xuance was short of money, he might join Xianweiju as the waiter.

And I heard from Fan Zhu that Wang Xuance had the best performance among the secondary schools in Xianweijuli in Kangrenli...

You can get more than the usual salary every month!

Just when Xu Mu was hesitating whether to confirm whether this king Xuance is that king Xuance...

Fan Zhu hurriedly found him: "My lord! My lord! Wang Xuance reported that he saw those people again! But this time they are not six, but only one!"

When Xu Mu heard this, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

Standing up abruptly, looking at Wang Zhao beside him, he said, "Call out the guards, put on armor, and surround Kangrenli!"

……

Xianweijuli.

Wang Xuance was teasing a middle-aged man wearing a bamboo hat: "Guest officer, you have to wait a little longer! The wine in our restaurant is sold out, and we are getting it from the cellar now!"

The middle-aged man nodded slightly, looking left and right all the time, with something wrong on his expression.

But Wang Xuance was extremely talkative, and kept pulling him to ramble, and he could only reply without saying a word.

Back and forth...

He found a group of soldiers in black armor rushing into the gate of Xianweiju.

Come straight to him.

"Discovered?!"

The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically, he took off the bamboo hat in his hand, and threw it at Wang Xuance.

He has been very strong since he was a child, and in his thinking, this blow would at least seriously injure this little girl.

But didn't expect...

This Xiaoer actually caught the bamboo hat he threw out with his backhand.

Seeing that he was about to be surrounded, the middle-aged man didn't dare to stay any longer, but... ran away and ran to the second floor.

Seeing this, Wang Xuance's heart sank, and he gritted his teeth. He knew that it was time for him to make meritorious deeds.

If he misses this opportunity, he doesn't know how long he will have to be a sophomore before he can make his mark.

The young man I saw yesterday was his ladder to the sky!
If he can stop or even capture the person in front of him, he will definitely attract the attention of the other party!
"Where to escape!"

Wang Xuance made a decisive decision and chased after the middle-aged man.

Soon, Wang Zhao led his army to block all the intersections of the restaurant, entered Xianweiju, and scanned the crowd: "The Lord's Mansion is investigating the assassins, everyone, don't panic, as compensation, all food and drinks are free today!"

He explained it this way...

The guests who were terrified were instantly beaming with joy, and some even took the initiative to guide Wang Zhao: "The middle-aged man wearing a bamboo hat ran towards the second floor, and a waiter from the shop chased him up!"

Wang Zhao's eyes were fixed, and he immediately stepped forward, leading the guards, holding a long knife that cut iron like mud, and walked up to the second floor.

He has followed the lord for several years, but he has never seen the lord angry.

So he is very clear about the seriousness of this incident.

Anyone involved in the assassination of Sun Ying will not be able to escape!

Everyone is going to die!
……

Immortal taste is outside.

Xu Mu and Fan Zhu were waiting outside.

Around them, there was a group of guards wearing iron pagodas guarding them.

With the lessons learned from Sun Ying, Xu Mu now attaches great importance to his own safety.

After half an hour.

Wang Zhao dragged...a middle-aged man twitching constantly out of Xianweiju.

The kind with one foot.

There was a trail of blood on the ground.

And this middle-aged man seemed to be in some great pain, twitching constantly, but clenching his teeth, without saying a word.

"My lord, this is an assassin. He was captured by Wang Xuance, but he bit the poison sac between his teeth. This subordinate is one step too late." Wang Zhao threw the twitching middle-aged man in front of Xu Mu, and knelt down on one knee. , report the battle situation.

Xu Mu raised his eyes slightly, and glanced at Wang Xuance.

Wang Xuance's right arm was cut open with a sharp weapon, and the blood was dripping.

But he didn't realize it, a pair of piercing eyes met Xu Mu's gaze.

"You are very good." Xu Mu smiled and said something encouraging.

Immediately, Wang Xuance grinned, knelt down, and said, "May my lord do the work of dogs and horses!"

In front of Xu Mu, Fan Zhu did not shy away from the title of lord.

In addition to the sudden appearance of more "lords" in Luoyang City in the past few days, Wang Xuance had guessed Xu Mu's identity.

This is also the reason why he tried his best to keep the assassin, even at the expense of his own injury.

And Xu Mu's words are tantamount to recognizing him.

Wang Xuance felt for a moment that his knife was really worth it!

After encouraging Wang Xuance, Xu Mu lowered his head and looked at the middle-aged assassin curled up on the ground, his eyes became extremely cold: "Do you think you can die smoothly after taking the poison?"
