Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Standing in front of Gu Chan, he said in a deep voice, "Three people came downstairs. Although they are disguised like guests staying in the hotel, in my opinion, they should be powerful killers."

"Three killers? What? Are they coming for me?" Gu Chan said with a frown.

"I'm not sure, but they secretly asked the waiter about your situation and already knew that you were back." Ren Yin explained.

Gu Chanxiao's face suddenly turned gloomy.

Ding Sheng shouted angrily, "In my opinion, this must have been called by that bastard Zheng Shixian. He hasn't been to Fulai Inn once in so many days since he came to Kyoto. I don't know where he is hiding. With his temper, he must be eager to kill us."

"If it's really him, then I have to say, this bastard is really brave! Everyone knows that I came out of Tianji Pavilion safely, so I must have passed the Tianji Pavilion trial and become a member of Tianji Pavilion. How dare he send people to kill me." Gu Chan said in a voice as cold as ice.

She never thought that Zheng Shixian would have such courage.

Just when the two of them were about to place their suspicion on Zheng Shixian, Ren Yin shook his head and said, "I don't think it's him. During this period, we also sent people to secretly monitor Zheng Shixian and found that he was hiding in a brothel called Yihonglou all day long and didn't dare to come out. Moreover, he had no contact with the assassins or the like."

"There is such a thing? That means you have already checked him?" Gu Chan asked curiously.

Ren Yin nodded without comment.

Gu Chan and the other two instantly became interested.

Ding Sheng asked, "Then why is he so afraid to come to Kyoto?"

"He owed a lot of gambling debts in Kyoto before and never paid them back. Now that he is here, the creditors are looking for him. Doesn't he have to hide?" Ren Yin said.

Gu Chan and Ding Sheng looked at each other and both laughed.

After all this time, it turns out that Zheng Shixian, this bastard, still owes a lot of gambling debts in Kyoto!

Come to think of it, anyone who can gamble with him in Kyoto must have some background and strength. Even if he is now the magistrate of Zhongyuan City, he probably wouldn't dare to offend all these creditors easily.

In this case, he doesn't want to pay back the money, but he also doesn't want to be caught by the creditors. So he has to find a place to hide and not dare to come out, right?

Now here comes the problem.

If the three disguised killers downstairs were not secretly sent by him, then who sent them?

Puzzled, Gu Chan said, "Well, go and take care of the three of them in secret, and get some information out of them."

"Yes, Commander." Ren Yin nodded.

After saying that, he turned and left to deal with the three killers in secret.

Gu Chan looked at Ding Sheng and said with a sly smile, "Do you dislike Zheng Shixian?"

"Isn't that nonsense? We were tricked by him this time, and he is not a good official either. He is much worse than me." Ding Sheng said angrily.

"Well, I'll give you one thousand taels of silver. You pack up right away and go find the biggest gambling house outside to have some fun. Then, inadvertently spread the news that he's in Yihonglou." Gu Chan said with a wicked smile.

Ding Sheng suddenly couldn't stop smiling.

Then he packed up as Gu Chan instructed, took the 1,000 taels of silver note she gave him, happily left Fulai Inn, and went to find the largest gambling house in Kyoto to play.

After he left, Gu Chan asked the waiter to bring some food and wake up Lao Bai for dinner.

Lao Bai sat at the table, eating while studying the problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage.

Gu Chan couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so she immediately explained to him the knowledge of linear equations with two variables. By setting an XY, she easily solved the problem.

When Lao Bai saw how ingenious the solution was, he once again expressed his admiration for Gu Chan and said, "Great! This method of solving the problem is amazing. I have really learned something new."

"Hehehe..."

Gu Chan laughed happily.

Dry!

In modern times, this is just a very simple linear equation of two variables, but in this ancient world, it is praised as very exquisite. What's even funnier is that this person is a top-level semi-immortal who is said to be invincible.

Where can you ask Gu Chan to seek justice?

From Lao Bai's perspective, he had indeed never seen this knowledge before, and he felt that this knowledge was both exquisite and extraordinary.

Now, he was even more determined to stay with Gu Chan!

Time passed quickly and it was already the second half of the night.

Just as Gu Chan and Lao Bai were sleeping soundly on their beds in their rooms, the door was pushed open from the outside and Ding Sheng walked in with a silly smile.

Gu Chan was awakened, propped herself up and asked, "What happened?"

"This trick of yours is indeed brilliant. I went to the casino to gamble for a while, and then pretended to be casual and told others the news that Zheng Shixian was in Yihonglou. As a result, only half an hour later, the owners of several gambling houses in Kyoto led dozens of people to Yihonglou, blocked him in a side room and beat him up!" Ding Sheng said with a smile.

Gu Chan couldn't stop smiling.

Ding Sheng added, "You don't know. When I went over to secretly watch him, he had been beaten black and blue. I think he wouldn't be able to get out of bed for at least half a month."

"He deserves it. This time I'm just teaching him a simple lesson. When we return to Zhongyuan City, I will definitely give him a good beating." Gu Chan said coldly.

"Then shall we leave tomorrow? After that bastard paid off his gambling debts, he hired people and a carriage overnight to send him away from Kyoto and back to Zhongyuan City." Ding Sheng said.

Gu Chan frowned, "So he already knows that we are fine, otherwise he wouldn't dare to leave like this."

"Could it be that those three disguised assassins were really sent by him secretly to deal with us?" Ding Sheng said in a deep voice.

Gu Chan shook her head and said, "It's not clear, you go to sleep first! When Ren Yin comes back, we will know the details."

"I'm so happy. I'm not sleepy at all. I have to find a brothel to play in first." Ding Sheng said with a smile.

"Get out!" Gu Chan waved her hand unhappily.

Ding Sheng immediately got up and left in a hurry, looking anxious, and went to Qingpu to have fun.

Gu Chan lay back on the bed, closed her eyes and began to think.

What she couldn't figure out now was who sent these three killers?

Based on her understanding of Zheng Shixian, although this bastard is a bit insidious, he is not that stupid. He will definitely not choose this critical moment to secretly send three assassins to deal with her.

Moreover, during the time she came to Kyoto, apart from beating up the Minister of War and the Chief Clerk, she really hadn't offended any other important figures?

So who sent these three killers?

Could it be that there is someone in Kyoto who dislikes her and wants to take her life?
