And Lu Xiao did not make any movement from beginning to end.
So I couldn't help but admire him.
"As expected, he is someone whose strength rivals that of the Four Grandmasters. He is truly formidable."
When he first arrived at the restaurant today, he carefully looked around and noticed Wuzhu's presence.
Fortunately, Wu Zhu doesn't care about anything except Fan Xian.
Danzhou is located on the border of Southern Qing and borders Northern Qi.
On weekdays, there are many people passing by Jianghu.
If Wuzhu had to care about every single person, he wouldn't be able to handle it even if he was a robot.
Therefore, Wu Zhu only cares about those who show malice or murderous intentions towards Fan Xian.
Many people like this have already been buried in the mass graves outside Danzhou City.
In the original novel, when Teng Zijing was trying to assassinate Fan Xian, Wu Zhu was hiding nearby and watching.
To be honest, he was lucky. Wu Zhu also wanted Fan Xian to experience more life and death trials, so he didn't take action at the beginning.
Otherwise he would have died long ago.
And according to this trend, the result of my assassination attempt on Fan Xian this time should not be much different.
As for why the mission to assassinate Fan Xian fell from Teng Zijing to Lu Xiao, we need to start from the beginning.
Chapter 12 Assassinating Fan Xian
In the world of Joy of Life, Lu Xiao was born in a small village on the border of Southern Qing.
When he was six years old, a small-scale war broke out between Southern Qing and Northern Qi.
The village where Lu Xiao was born was devastated by war, and he was the only one left alive in the entire village.
It is very difficult for a six-year-old child to survive in this era, even if he has the wisdom of an adult.
In order to survive, he had no choice but to sell himself to a human trafficker.
The trafficker, seeing that he was young and sensible, took him to Kyoto, intending to find a good family to sell him to.
Of course it didn't succeed.
It was intercepted by the Inspection Institute.
The Inspection Office has always had the habit of adopting orphans from all over the country to train as assassins.
Whether it was the Black Knights under Chen Pingping's command or the assassins responsible for assassinating members of the Sixth Division, most of them were trained by the Inspection Institute from a young age.
So Lu Xiao had no choice but to join the Inspection Institute.
Then began the brutal training.
Lu Xiao didn't want to recall the specific experience at all.
In short, his hands are now stained with countless blood.
There are those who deserve punishment, and there are those who are innocent.
Being a death warrior is like being a mindless sword.
He would kill whoever the knife-wielding man told him to kill.
There is no choice at all.
Fortunately, he now finally has other options.
Before entering the soul space, his martial arts cultivation was only at the sixth level.
Now, he has reached the eighth level of Qi cultivation and has the real combat power to fight against ninth level warriors.
It must be said that although the world level of Joy of Life is slightly higher than that of Smiling Proud Wanderer, the martial arts in this world are very simple.
The most famous martial arts in the Jianghu are the Four-Looking Swordsmanship of Dongyi City, the Tianyi Dao of Northern Qi, and the Liuyun Sanshou of Ye Liuyun.
Fan Xian and Emperor Qing's domineering true energy is not among them.
That's because few people in the world know about the existence of this martial art.
Honestly, martial arts in this world are very crude.
And it's horribly rough.
Of course, it's also possible that the temple was behind this.
After all, this temple has been secretly controlling the development of this world.
Any power beyond the control of the temple will be classified as a world bug by the temple, and robots will be sent to eliminate it.
But precisely because of this, having inherited the martial arts from both the Shaoge and Xiaoao worlds, his true combat power was much higher than his actual cultivation level.
Moreover, his martial arts cultivation is improving rapidly every day, which can be described as changing day by day.
I believe that before long, he will be able to truly enter the Ninth Rank realm.
By then, as long as the Grand Master didn't show up, he would be confident that he wouldn't be afraid of anything in the world.
In the past, he was just an ordinary chess piece of the Inspection Bureau, and therefore had no control over his own destiny.
Now he doesn't want to be a chess piece anymore, he wants to be the chess player.
In this case, the identity of the Inspection Institute will be of great use.
If he could completely control the Inspection Bureau in the future, he would truly be qualified to be the chess master.
So Lu Xiao decided to take the initiative to contact Fan Xian.
Through Fan Xian, he was able to quickly gain Chen Pingping's attention and thus further gain a certain amount of power in the Inspection Institute.
etc.
Having said so much, I seem to have strayed off topic.
Let's continue to talk about how Lu Xiao replaced Teng Zijing.
A soldier like him, who had been trained since childhood, would either become a Black Knight or be assigned to the Sixth Division after graduation if he was outstanding.
However, Lu Xiao's grades weren't outstanding. When he "graduated," he was only at the fifth rank, and he only reached the sixth rank later.
So, this ordinary assassin was assigned to different places and was placed in the same department as Teng Zijing.
The reason why he replaced Teng Zijing to assassinate Fan Xian this time.
Frankly speaking, he did this on purpose.
According to the plot of Joy of Life, after Fan Xian enters Kyoto, chaos will begin to break out in Southern Qing, and civil unrest will soon break out in the Inspection Institute.
Afterwards, Chen Pingping cleaned up many people.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the civil unrest was downplayed in the TV series.
Shadow Slash killed all the rebels in an instant.
But the real world certainly can't be like that.
At least before Shadow's final move, many people had already died.
Lu Xiao didn't think that with his own strength, he could survive the civil unrest in the future without any harm.
Therefore, in order to avoid this dangerous place, he started paying attention to the tasks within the hospital a few months ago.
Finally, when the secret order to assassinate Fan Xian came down, he used his connections to snatch the mission that was supposed to belong to Teng Zijing.
His original plan was to pretend that the assassination attempt failed, then fake his own death and escape to Northern Qi.
Given Fan Xian's personality, as long as Lu Xiao played a little more sympathy or made up a hardship,
For example, they are tired of the intrigues and the fighting in the martial arts world, and want to retire to the mountains and forests.
Fan Xian would definitely believe it, and would keep it a secret for himself.
Fan Xian is so naive at this stage.
Don't feel strange.
After that, he could naturally sneak into Northern Qi. If he handled it well, whether he joined Shen Zhong, the commander of the Northern Qi Jinyiwei, or joined the young Northern Qi emperor, it would be a good choice.
Anyway, he has the ability to foresee and know many secrets.
Even if they revealed even a little bit, it would be enough to attract the attention of Northern Qi.
In the end, whether it is exchanged for wealth and glory, high official position and generous salary, or a stable life, it is up to him to decide.
Of course, all this is premised on being able to deceive the Inspection Institute.
To be honest, Lu Xiao didn't have much confidence.
As a death squad trained by the Inspection Bureau since childhood, he knew better than anyone the terrifying nature of the Inspection Bureau's intelligence network.
To succeed is definitely a difficult thing.
Therefore, a dozen days ago, he was still struggling with whether or not to implement his previous plan.
But now, I finally don't have to worry about it.
After finalizing the new plan, Lu Xiao stood up and left the tavern.
The first steps of a new plan are all ready made.
It's in the original book.
The old farmer who delivered vegetables to the Fan Mansion was named Lao Ha.
Lu Xiao had already figured out the location of Old Ha's family over the past two days.
And now Old Ha is tied up in his O Er Er (Three) 2 yard.
Early this morning, while no one was around, Lu Xiao, with the deliberate cooperation of the Fan residence's housekeeper, pretended to be Lao Ha's nephew and sent a laxative-laced dish into the Fan residence.
Next, I just need to wait and see at Lao Ha's house.
Waiting for Fan Xian to arrive, and then playing a no-fight-no-deal drama with him, it would be easy to gain his trust and friendship.
During this period, Fan Xian was naive and easy to deceive.
If this trick were used on Fan Xian, who had just returned from his mission to Northern Qi, it might not have worked.
Back at Lao Ha's house, he was tied up in the corner of the yard and kept whimpering.
Lu Xiao ignored him, picked up a jar of wine, sat down under the awning in the courtyard, and began to drink slowly.
In his previous life, he didn't like drinking.
However, during these years in the Inspection Institute, he gradually fell in love with this thing.
Maybe it was because during the most difficult time, only after getting drunk could he feel that he was still a living person.
Lu Xiao didn't drink fast, and he drank a jar of wine for more than two hours, but it still wasn't empty.
Finally, the sound of footsteps outside the courtyard door came slowly from far away.
Although the person tried very hard to conceal the noise he made, it still didn't escape Lu Xiao's ears.
Fan Xian is here.
Chapter 13: Beating Fan Xian
With a creaking sound, the courtyard door was slowly pushed open.
A group of people in green clothes appeared in the courtyard, holding a long sword.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Fan Xian saw Lao Ha tied to the corner and rushed over in a hurry.
"Old Ha."
He rushed forward recklessly, without any defense at all. He is truly a naive young man.
"Woooo ...
Tied to the wall, Lao Ha kept winking at Fan Xian.
After a lot of effort, Fan Xian finally understood what was going on. Turning around, he saw Lu Xiao sitting under the awning in the courtyard, drinking.
At this moment, a hint of vigilance appeared in his eyes.
"If I had attacked you just now, you would have died ten times."
