Chapter 29: Road Blockage
It was still the table that had not been finished.
After finishing the work, they had to continue eating. However, Uncle Fu had not been seen since a while ago. It was obvious that he had gone to clean the house for Yang Xiaoyun.
Su Mo held the bowl of rice and ate heartily, with the box of Long Yin placed next to him.
Yang Xiaoyun looked at him and felt a little bit unable to eat.
Su Mo glanced at her and smiled: "Are you worried that this shipment is weird?"
"You were just assassinated, and then this escort came. Ji Shuhua was right. Tiexue, Yangwei, and Tianmen are three escort agencies with big fortunes and they charge a lot of money.
“However, if this escort order is given to Liu Suifeng, he will probably accept it even if it is given for free.”
Yang Xiaoyun put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Since Liu Suifeng came out of seclusion three years ago, he has been famous in the martial arts world for his sixteen-style Rainbow Heart-searching Sword. But in the past one or two years, he has been living in seclusion and rarely goes to the martial arts world. If I can use this opportunity to establish a friendship with him, it will be priceless."
"Indeed."
Su Mo nodded: "So, no matter how he thinks about it, he shouldn't choose Ziyang Escort Agency."
"this……"
Yang Xiaoyun said quickly: "I'm not saying that Ziyang Escort Agency is bad..."
"The decline is a fact. I am just discussing the matter at hand. I am not that sensitive."
"Um...what is glass?"
"Forehead……"
Su Mo thought for a moment: "Silicate non-metallic materials?"
"???"
Yang Xiaoyun was completely confused. She felt like she , but how come when they were put together, it seemed like she couldn't recognize any of them?
"Never mind. It's not important."
Su Mo waved his hand: "This single dart is indeed a bit strange. However, Liu Suifeng asking someone to forge a sword does not seem to be false. If I must say, maybe someone is secretly facilitating this."
"Now that you've thought of it, why are you still taking it?"
Yang Xiaoyun was stunned.
“It’s an interesting opportunity that can’t be wasted.”
Su Mo said, "I'm waiting at home, and I don't know when it will end. On the other hand, Uncle Fu doesn't have any martial arts skills. If he really encounters danger, although I am sure I can protect him, it's hard to say that I can protect him. Now I have led this trouble away. These people are only targeting me, and even... killing me is not their goal, so they will naturally not go to the trouble of hurting Uncle Fu."
In addition to luring the danger away and giving the matter a chance to be resolved, Su Mo had another reason that he didn't say.
During the assassination yesterday, in addition to the four assassins, there was another person hiding in the dark.
Is this person a friend or an enemy?
If it is an enemy, then we might encounter him this time, which would be a good breakthrough point.
If we are friends, that would be even better.
In any case, this escort mission is like a touchstone, and perhaps everything will have an answer.
Thinking of this, after a slight pause, he looked at Yang Xiaoyun: "But just in case, Sister Xiaoyun, while I'm away, Uncle Fu would like to ask you to help take care of things."
"no."
Yang Xiaoyun shook her head without even thinking about it.
"???"
Su Mo was stunned, and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, he then heard Yang Xiaoyun say solemnly:
"I'll go with you on this dart."
“…”
Su Mo blinked: "This order is dangerous."
"It's because of the danger that I have to go with you."
"Uncle Fu, this is it..."
"I'll make the arrangements."
"Uncle Yang won't agree..."
"A son grows up and is no longer under the control of his father!"
“…”
The corners of Su Mo's mouth twitched. He really felt helpless towards this woman.
I wanted to speak harshly to her and tell her to give up the idea...but I also felt that she would probably speak even harshly to me in return.
But the other party is completely kind-hearted and all his actions are based on his own considerations.
In this case, how can I drive them away?
He immediately sighed: "Forget it, whatever you want."
"What do you mean by follow me?"
Yang Xiaoyun was quite dissatisfied with this statement: "As if bringing me along would be a burden... Well, our Master Su is indeed a martial arts expert, so he doesn't look down on a weak woman like me?"
"I dare not!"
Su Mo quickly raised his head: "If anyone dares to say that you are a weak woman, I will be the first to disagree."
"It's good that you have this awareness."
The decision has been made, so there is no need to say more.
After the two men had eaten and drunk their fill, they began to prepare themselves at the Zi Yang Escort Agency.
Of course, traveling the world is not the end of just walking out. Going out with empty hands is a dead end.
The small bag was spread out. Some emergency detoxification pills must be brought with you. A set of emergency clothes was also required, and deerskin gloves were a commonplace.
There are many different ways of using poison in the underworld, and no one dares to say whether they will be poisoned if they touch something of unknown origin with their bare hands.
So if you can prepare, prepare as much as possible.
In addition, carry less silver and more silver bills. Silver bills are easy to hide, but too much silver will attract attention.
Money can tempt people and is most likely to cause trouble.
Everything was ready, and the two decided to have a good rest in the Ziyang Escort Agency tonight and set off early tomorrow morning.
But during this period, they each did one more thing.
On the one hand, Yang Xiaoyun arranged people to secretly protect Uncle Fu, and on the other hand, he had to send a letter to Yang Yizhi. He couldn't just leave without saying goodbye.
Su Mo originally thought, if this is the case, Yang Yizhi would have to rush to Ziyang Escort Agency tonight to demand accountability?
But as it turned out, the night passed and everything was fine.
As for Su Mo... he never mentioned what he did when he went out or who he met.
When he came back, there was no change on his face at all, as if he had just gone out for a walk.
Until the next morning, when the two men had finished their breakfast, said goodbye to Uncle Fu, and set out on their journey, Yang Yizhi did not show up.
This made Su Mo even more confused about what Yang Yizhi was thinking.
No wonder Yang Xiaoyun had some complaints about his father. He was indeed a bit unreliable.
As a result, just when the two people were about to leave the city gate, they saw a person.
Xu Ruoshen stood tall in front of the city gate, with a wry smile on his face:
"Where is the young escort leader going?"
"Uncle Xu, I sent a letter to my father last night. The letter has explained everything. Please get out of the way and don't delay our business."
Although Yang Xiaoyun called him "Uncle", his tone was clearly not polite.
There may be some anger in my heart.
I sent a letter to my own father, but Yang Yizhi didn't come himself, but let Xu Ruoshen come to block his way. How can this make sense?
Xu Ruoshen sighed, and did not say much to Yang Xiaoyun. Instead, he looked at Su Mo and smiled softly: "Mr. Su, you and our young chief escort are certainly engaged, but times have changed, and it is still unclear whether this matter has been finalized. Now you are leaving with the young chief escort without even notifying our chief escort.
"Isn't this a little unreasonable?"
Su Mo nodded vigorously, feeling that what Xu Ruoshen said made sense.
Yang Xiaoyun could no longer suppress her anger: "If you have anything to say, let my dad say it."
"Young Chief Escort, the Chief Escort left yesterday afternoon without informing us where he was going. I saw the letter you sent, and although I didn't dare to read the contents, I knew it must be related to Young Master Su. That's why I rashly blocked your way. Young Chief Escort, although I don't know what you are going to do with this Young Master Su, I just want to remind you to think twice before acting."
"Huh? Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"I dare not."
"What if I must go?"
Yang Xiaoyun reached out and touched the silver gun behind him.
Xu Ruoshen sighed: "In this case... Mr. Su, I'm sorry, I just want you to hold off for a while!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he moved his toes, and in an instant, a flash of light appeared. In just a moment, he was already in the air, in front of Su Mo, and he raised his hand and slapped his shoulder.
He did not intend to kill Su Mo, he just wanted to injure him and prevent him from leaving the city. He also had another intention, which was to test him.
Killing four people in a narrow alley, was it really the work of Su Mo, who was in disgrace and worthless?
But Su Mo just sighed softly, raised his hand and flipped it out.
With a loud bang, two palms came together, and Xu Ruoshen's whole body shook violently, and he flew backwards in an instant.
