Chapter 262: Well Known in the City 7
Qi Qingyao was very satisfied with the map once she was done drawing it. In fear that she would forget, she personally marked a few entrances, exits as well as escape routes!
Looking at the words ‘escape route’ on the map, Jiang Yeqian could not stop the twitching on his lips. This was his first time seeing someone who would mark an escape route…
After that, Qi Qingyao asked, “You two, how are your skills?”
Si Jin spoke first. “Rank eight and above.”
Jiang Yeqian pondered for a moment and then replied, “Rank eight and above.”
Both of them were ranked eight and above?
She really had picked up treasures.
“How many rank eights are there in this world? And how about ranks nine? Also, how many grand masters are there?” she asked.
Si Jin shook his head, looking pure and innocent. It seemed he really did not know.
Qi Qingyao put her hope in Jiang Yeqian. Jiang Yeqian dared not stay silent. He answered honestly, “Of the entire Continent, there are seven grand masters, tens of rank nines, and hundreds of rank eights. Basically, the imperial guards in the imperial palace should be at least rank seven or higher, only then would they be qualified to be selected as imperial guards. As for the commander of imperial guards, they are of rank nine.” Tens and hundreds was a delicate way to put it. Ten people were considered to be in the double digits, but ninety-nine people were also in the double digits. He had been deliberately vague. This was because if he had been too clear, he would not be able to answer her properly if she were to question him about why he knew this in such detail.
Qi Qingyao nodded slightly, then asked, “That Li Qing, what rank is he?”
She needed a clear reference.
Si Jin shook his head again.
Jiang Yeqian said, “Rank eight.”
“Then, those who will be here tonight, I’m guessing you two can deal with them… as long as you put your life on the line.” Those of rank nine and rank eight were both very skilled; ordinary assassins were at most rank six. If those two were to work hard, they should also be capable of wiping out their opponents. Qi Qingyao smiled and said, “If you unfortunately die in battle, I will go back and buy you a coffin made of gold nanmu wood! Your funeral will be absolutely glorious!”
Jiang Yeqian smirked. “And what if we do not die?!”
Qi Qingyao gritted her teeth. “If you’re not dead, I’ll cook tomorrow morning and reward you both properly.”
“Okay, you said it yourself.” Jiang Yeqian instantly felt more motivated.
“It doesn’t matter if you’re injured, I know how to treat wounds and I’ll attend to your injuries.” Qi Qingyao patted Jiang Yeqian on the shoulder very politely. “Also, once tonight’s over, I’ll write off the one thousand taels that you owe me!”
Jiang Yeqian was very serious. “Your words!! You better remember them.”
Qi Qingyao nodded with a lovely smile.
Then, she pointed to the map and said, “One of you will be on the roof at the front door and the other will be on the roof at the back door. Guard the entrance and exit for me. I’ll stay in this room with the little ones tonight. This room is very hidden!” She dragged her fingers and pointed to a part on the map. That was a thoroughly hidden room!
Jiang Yeqian, “…” Very smart. They were not going to be staying in the master bedroom.
Qi Qingyao took the sleeping babies to one of the side rooms, prepared the quilt, and then prepared the brazier. She did not undress. Laying on the bed with the little ones, she could not close her eyes. She put out the fire early; ensuring that the entire house… was plunged into darkness.
Jiang Yeqian stood guard on the roof of the front door while Si Jin was responsible for guarding the roof of the back door.
When the two began exchanging ideas, Jiang Yeqian said only one thing to Si Jin.
“Prioritize survival!”
Si Jin answered obediently, like an oblivious child, lovely and innocent.
With an expression of suspicion, Jiang Yeqian thought, ‘Is this guy really rank eight? Stop joking.’
Not only was he unable to feel any human-like aura on his body, he also could not gauge his strength either.
This was really weird.
The rain was getting heavier.
Jiang Yeqian and Si Jin were guarding the front and back, respectively.
The backyard was gigantic. There was a huge garden and a huge pond!
The heavy rain pattered into the pond, splattering water everywhere.
They listened to the sound of rain, bathing in the downpour.
Looking at the entirety of the back garden, Si Jin was a little excited. After making sure that there was no one around, he took off his clothes and plunged into the water like a cannonball.
After playing in the water for a quarter of an hour, he reluctantly came back ashore.
Putting on his wet clothes, Si Jin walked slowly toward the back door. He was grinning happily in the heavy rain.
Qi Qingyao had refused to let him go to the river recently and he had been very obedient; he never went there ever again…
It was so soothing to be able to have a soak today!
…
The rain was too heavy. Jiang Yeqian stood under the front eaves, no weapons in his hands. His eyes were fixed on the rainy night, thinking that as long as he mopped up these insignificant people, he would be able to eat that woman’s cooking tomorrow morning. Jiang Yeqian suddenly felt that it was worthwhile keeping vigil the entire night.
She even said that she would treat them if they were injured. Then, maybe he should get some injuries on purpose?
This thought was only a fleeting one because he realized he did not know what was going on at the back door. If Si Jin was not injured while he was, that would be very embarrassing.
They waited for a very long time.
After waiting until around fifteen past eleven in the night., there were starting to be movements in their surroundings.
Amidst the heavy rain, a group of people clad in black arrived in the distance.
They were coming…
Jiang Yeqian looked at the group with a smile. As to not let his strength be known, he had to kill all of them, and leave no witnesses behind.
…
…
From the first draw of the blade to the killing of the first person, this rainy night was destined to bear countless souls.
Around one-thirty in the night., the assassins were no more.
Jiang Yeqian stopped. Looking at the mountain of bodies piled up in front of the door, he rubbed his forehead.
“Just how many people were sent by all those forces to gauge her tonight? Motherf*ckers…!”
Basically, the killers had all been rank fives and rank sixes. There were also three rank sevens!
Perhaps it was the river of blood flowing from the front door which dyed the area bright red that left all the subsequent assassins dumbfounded. After Jiang Yeqian waited for another fifteen minutes, the corpse collector came.
A man in black walked up to the man in the ox head mask.
“Master, there are quite a lot of corpses. I’m afraid you’ll have to pay more.”
“I have no problems paying you more. By the way, the corpses at the back door should also be dealt with.”
“Alright.”
“This is the final payment of one thousand taels. Remember to clean this up properly.”
“Thank you for your patronage, boss.” The sum had initially been eight hundred taels.
Ke Yishan was a well-known diener in Qingzhou City. The collection of corpses from private individuals and government offices was all practically allocated to him. He had been in this business for 20 years. Apart from being stunned by the number of corpses collected from Lingyun Restaurant a few days ago, he was once again shocked to have been invited to this large signless house that used to belong to the Lu family by his customer to collect corpses.
He had thought there would be at most a handful of corpses.
Who would have thought that the corpses would be everywhere? There was so much blood flowing, it basically formed a river!
They all seemed to have been assassins.
The man in the ox-head mask stood under the eaves and looked at him. He sent someone to quickly lift the bodies onto the carriage. Then, they took away all the swords.
The corpses had to be carted away in several carriages…
The people who were pulling the corpses were also a little bit flabbergasted.
When they got to the back door, there were even more dead bodies than the front door!
Ke Yishan, “…”
Beneath the eaves of the back door sat a young boy. Although the boy’s appearance was not very clear, he could vaguely tell that he was quite good-looking. He had a horse-headed mask placed beside his feet.
“So, you’re the diener!”
The young man stood in the rain and exclaimed with a smile.
Ke Yishan swallowed and nodded.
After making sure that there were no assassins left, the young man then threw away the sword in his hand. He stretched his waist and said, “Drag the corpses away. You don’t need to wash the floor anymore, the rain is heavy tonight!”
Ke Yishan watched as the boy walked inside through the back door.
He silently looked at the pile of corpses in the rain, thinking, ‘Who the heck are these people?! They were killing people as if cutting melons and vegetables.”
…
That night, none of the men who had been sent by the various forces in Qingzhou City to gauge the residents’ abilities came back! All of the people who were waiting for the news were left a little confused on this rainy night.
Even if it rained, it was impossible for them to get lost!
How was it that no one had returned at all?
They waited till dawn.
Still, no one came back to report to them. Whether it was to the Jiang family, the Han family, or the Yulong Gang, everyone who was waiting for news was wearing very ugly expressions.
Sometime later, a message came from the diener.
After receiving the news, everyone turned pale.
Several carriages of dead bodies?
What was going on?
Those two, ox-head and horse-face, did they do this?
How was that possible!
