After crossing, let yourself go

After the two left, Chang Hao and Bing Jian both breathed a sigh of relief. It was a good thing that this master came today, otherwise they would have been crushed to death by the master's low pressure.

Chang Hao didn't notice it just now, but now he noticed that Honglian's expression was wrong, and thought of the two people just now, "You'd better not say too much." Chang Hao sneered in his heart.

Honglian was as if stabbed by something. "What do you mean?"

Looking at the angry Honglian, Chang Hao smiled and put his face in front of her. "Honglian, you can stand here because your brother saved my life. But this does not mean that I can tolerate you doing things you shouldn't do and thinking about people you shouldn't think about. I advise you to be careful."

Honglian's face turned pale and blue, and her body was shaking with anger. She opened her mouth for a long time but couldn't utter a word.

Bing Jian at the side pulled Chang Hao and said, "Alright, go and watch over the people, don't run away." No one can think of anything good if they run away. Why argue over such a small matter? The master is not a fool, and that person is even less of a fool.

After being pulled away by Bingjian, Chang Hao sneered, "Do you think she will be honest? I don't think so."

Bingjian rolled his eyes. "So what if she's dishonest? Does she have that ability? If she really had that ability to climb onto that bed, I would look up to her."

Chang Hao smiled and said nothing more.

It was already very late at night when Han Jiu walked back after being persuaded by Yan Hongzhi. Thinking of that noisy man, Han Jiu felt amused. This man was really annoying.

She walked lazily on the way home, and unknowingly came to the door of the puppet shop she had been to last time. Thinking of the room full of eerie puppets, she stepped in.

The old man was still carving something, probably a leg or an arm this time, and pointed to a puppet that was about the same size as the one he bought last time. "Is this also ten taels of silver?"

The old man still didn't raise his head.

Han Jiu took out the silver and put it on the table, then reached out to take down the puppet. This puppet was even scarier than the previous one.

It was wearing a bright red dress, with blood drawn on the corners of its mouth, and its eyes were no longer black holes, but glowed with a faint green light. She moved the puppet, and when she found nothing wrong, she led the puppet with green eyes away.

Not long after Han Jiu left, someone came out and asked, "Has this person been here?"

The old man put down what he was holding and finally raised his head. “Yes, this is his second time here.”

This person didn't say anything else and looked meaningfully at the place where Han Jiu disappeared.

The old man stopped talking and picked up his things to continue carving.

Han Jiu led the hopping puppet back and naturally turned into an alley and stopped. She stood in the shadows with a cold look in her eyes. "Here."

A shadow flashed at the entrance of the alley. He was stunned when he heard Han Jiu's words, but then he showed up.

Han Jiu looked at the person who had been following him all the way and said, "Your skills in following people are not good enough. You have been discovered."

The person on the opposite side looked at Han Jiu viciously, as if he would only feel relieved if he could tear her to pieces. He rushed towards Han Jiu without saying a word.

Han Jiu stopped lazily looking at the man who was as fast as the wind rushing towards her. The sword stopped when it was only an inch away from piercing her throat. The man opposite looked at Han Jiu in astonishment, not knowing what had happened to him.

Suddenly he felt his feet lose feeling, and then he fell to the ground. When he saw his feet again, he screamed in pain.

Han Jiu lowered his head coldly and looked at the man on the ground whose legs were cut off. He moved the puppet in his hand, making it look like it was dancing or laughing at the man's ignorance.

She didn't ask a single question, because she knew she couldn't get any answers out of it. She also didn't say a single word because it would be nonsense to say anything more to him. She stretched out her hand and slapped the man on the crown of his head. The man started bleeding from all seven orifices and no longer screamed in pain.

After finishing the work, Han Jiu tied the string he had just untied on the puppet back to the puppet. The scary puppet came to life again. It no longer moved around like it was dancing, but took rhythmic steps and walked away step by step with Han Jiu.

Han Jiu was in a bad mood all the way. She couldn't figure out who was so stupid as to find such a despicable person to kill her.

The people in Beiming Palace would never send out such a person. Even if they did, they would not send only one person. Did they think that her Han Jiu's killing all the way to Beiming was fake?

But where did this clown come from today? It seemed that his target was herself, and it was not because of Yan Beiming. After thinking about it, she couldn’t figure it out, so she gave up and led the puppet into the house.

In a dark room, an indistinct figure sat staring blankly at the fate card on the table. The card was broken. Did he fail? How could it be possible? His skills were comparable to mine, but he died just like that?

Elsewhere, at the entrance of the alley where Han Jiu had just killed the man, Qu Yi, dressed in a light blue that gradually turned into dark blue, stood in the moonlight. After listening to the words of the person behind him, he asked, "Did she break the man's leg with a string?"

The man kneeling on the ground answered, "Yes, it is the string taken from the puppet."

Qu Yi's expression showed no emotion. "Tsk, when did I become so free?" He turned and walked out. "Where's Qu Lian?"

I was sent back by you to "In the Mansion", how dare I not stay here?

"With that woman?" That was a comforting thing.

"Yes, Second Master is taking her with him."

"Tsk, they look quite similar, that idiot Qu Lian." Qu Yi cursed.

The people behind him thought that only you dared to say that to that person, is there anyone else in the world who dared to curse like that?

That day, Yan Hongzhi killed all the unruly people in the building and used this as a warning to the entire Qingse. If anyone from Qingse takes a mission without authorization again, they will be killed.

And it was strictly forbidden for all assassins in Qingse to accept the task of assassinating Yan Beiming. In addition, the name Han Jiu almost exploded like a thunder in Qingse.

Because the master only gave the token that could mobilize all the people in Qing to one person, and that was a man named Han Jiu, including Chang Hao and Bing Jian. Seeing the order was like seeing the master.

Yan Hongzhi heaved a sigh of relief as soon as the news was released. Fortunately, nothing happened. Chang Hao and Bing Jian also heaved a sigh of relief. "Master, does that person... know?"

Yan Hongzhi was not so serious in front of Chang Hao and Bing Jian. "If you dare, go ahead and tell me."

Chang Hao shrank his neck and said, "Please forgive me. I cannot afford to offend that gentleman. I am just worried that he will misunderstand you."

"Now that you mention it, I really have to find an opportunity to talk about it." If I were misunderstood, I would want to die.

Chang Hao saw that his master was in a good mood and said, "Master, the master..."

Yan Hongzhi frowned, and thought about what Han Jiu had said to him a few days ago, "Tell him I'm going back for the New Year."

Then he thought of something and said, "Go to Xiaojiu's place tomorrow. It's almost New Year and she is careless. Ask her if she needs anything and help her get it. Then tell her that I am going back to Dayan and that I will be back soon after the New Year. Bingjian and I will go back. Changhao, you stay in the building." He was also vaguely worried about her.

Xiye spent the whole day in Qiao Yu's yard because he had to make a medicine for Han Jiu that would not harm her body. Qiao Yu was very happy to see him like this. He was very happy to see that his junior fellow apprentice was not always around Han Jiu.

If he knew that although his junior fellow apprentice was not around Han Jiu, everything he did was for Han Jiu, Qiao Yu would probably be furious.

Song Ruochen has been accompanying Han Jiu to shop on the street these days. After all, it is New Year's Day and a lot of things are needed. Although there are servants out shopping, Han Jiu said that he wants to buy some things himself for him and Xiye.
