Mr. Gao looked at Li Xin and then at Li Shui. He kept saying blankly: "Master Banished Immortal, are you talking to a villain?"

Li Shui nodded and said, "Yes, I am talking to you."

Mr. Gao chuckled: "I must have recognized the wrong person when banishing him to immortality. I am not Gao Jianli. My name is Gao Shu."

Li Shui chuckled: "You have been in Xianyang for a while, so you must have heard some rumors."

"Zhao Jiu, you know, right? Zhao Cheng's confidant, after being caught by me, didn't you just do it?"

"You know Potato, right? Zhao Gao's die-hard loyalist, he was imprisoned by me for a day, and he still told the truth?"

"Heitan, you know, right? Leader Qi Mo. After being caught by me, he was quickly recruited. He was tortured and refused to change his words."

"How do you think you compare to them? Let me tell you the truth, since I think you are Gao Jianli, you are Gao Jianli. Even if you really are not, I can still beat you into being."

Li Xin was a little helpless next to him: Then what else do you ask?

Mr. Gao was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "I am Gao Jianli."

Li Shui said with satisfaction: "That's right. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. But...are you really Gao Jianli? Are you just pretending to be someone who is afraid of being beaten?"

Mr. Gao:"……"

He wanted to ask Li Shui: Are you kidding me?

But after looking at the sword in Li Xin's hand, he didn't ask.

Li Shui chuckled and said, "Just kidding. Brother Gao, are you interested in having a heart-to-heart talk?"

Gao Jianli didn't speak, which was considered acquiescence.

Li Xin walked over, took a rope, and tied up Mr. Gao. During this process, Gao Jianli did not struggle, and he probably knew that he would not be able to struggle.

After Li Xin was tied up, Li Shui breathed a sigh of relief and took off the heavy armor.

He said to Gao Jianli: "If you didn't stay in Yan State, why did you come to Xianyang?"

Gao Jianli said: "When the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, it is natural to take revenge."

Li Shui rolled his eyes and said: "Whose country does Yan belong to? Is it yours? It belongs to King Yan and his descendants. No one is in a hurry to take revenge, so why are you jumping up and down? Don't you think it's a bit pretentious?

Yet?"

Gao Jianli was a little dumbfounded and confused by Li Shui's words: Why...why are you so sentimental? A scholar dies for his bosom friend, alone, and stabs the king with a sword. Shouldn't it be praised forever? How come he said it is worthless?

?

Gao Jianli thought for a while and said, "Jing Ke is my best friend. Jing Ke died for assassinating Qin. I want to avenge him."

Li Shui said: "First, are you seeking revenge? Why did Jing Ke die? Because he wanted to kill the emperor. Legally speaking, the emperor killed him in self-defense. Is there a problem with this? What revenge do you want? You

Is there any reason to take revenge? Assassin, don’t you need to be reasonable?”

"Secondly, does Jing Ke need you to take revenge? No matter whether he succeeds in assassinating Qin or not, he will definitely die. His ending was already determined when he left Yan State. A person who is destined to die is a person who volunteers to die.

, need you to take revenge? Are you too pretentious?"

"Third, do you have the ability to take revenge? Jing Ke assassinated Qin and chose his deputy. He found Qin Wuyang, who was not suitable, but still did not choose you. Why? Don't you have a clue? Mr. Gao, you may have a way to build a building.

But the force of force is really bad. What can you do that Jing Ke couldn't do? You are not trying to assassinate Qin, nor are you seeking revenge, you are seeking death."

"Fourth, if you really can't let go of Jing Ke, your best friend. Because of your friendship, you don't care, give up some reason and law, and are paranoid to kill his killer. Then why did you go there? Jing Ke didn't set out.

Why didn't you stop him when Prince Dan wanted Jing Ke to assassinate Qin? Why didn't you kill Prince Dan when he wanted Jing Ke to assassinate Qin? Are you really Jing Ke's best friend? To be a best friend is to watch your friend die and then help him take revenge?"

Gao Jianli's lips moved but he didn't speak. In fact, he didn't know what to say.

However, Li Shui pressed forward step by step and said reluctantly: "I know what you are doing."

Gao Jianli asked subconsciously: "For what?"

Li Shui said: "In order to become famous, Jing Ke assassinated Qin and became famous all over the world. You are envious, you are jealous, you think your friend can be passed down through the ages, and you are the builder. No matter how beautiful the music is, you are just a musician.

, you’ll never be able to do that.”

"So you want to imitate him, you want to assassinate Qin. You want to be like him, known to the world, and even want to be written in the history books."

Gao Jianli looked pale and shook his head repeatedly: "I never meant this."

Li Shui said: "Other than that, I can't find any other reason."

Gao Jianli was silent for a long time and said slowly: "You treat me as me because you want to fulfill your old friend's last wish. He failed to assassinate Qin and died with his eyes open. If I can kill the emperor, maybe I can make him feel at ease."

Li Shui snorted: "So that's the reason. Then what I said before was that I misunderstood you."

Gao Jianli said nothing.

Li Shui said quietly: "However, you have been discovered by us now. The assassination of Qin will definitely not succeed. And after you fail, I will publicize it everywhere, saying that you assassinated Qin for fame."

Gao Jianli looked at him in disbelief: "Are you so shameless?"

Li Shui nodded and said sincerely: "Yes."

The ancients had a good reputation, especially for assassins like this. All they wanted was a reputation, even if their lives were at stake. But this guy Huai Guzi wanted to spread rumors and destroy his reputation after death. This is simply cruel.

Gao Jianli let out a long sigh: "There is no injustice or hatred, so why should we do this?"

This sounds like a sigh, but actually it sounds a bit like pleading.

Li Shui said with a smile: "So, Brother Gao still wants to assassinate Qin?"

Gao Jianli smiled bitterly: "Gao has been arrested, how can he still assassinate Qin?"

Li Shui said: "I'm asking you if you want to, not if you can."

Gao Jianli was silent for a long time, then shook his head.

Li Shui nodded with satisfaction and said to Gao Jianli: "That's right. I hope you can keep your promise and be more peaceful when you arrive at the palace tomorrow."

Gao Jianli looked at Li Shui in surprise: "You want to send me to the palace?"

Li Shui said: "I didn't send you in, it was Tian Jing who sent you there."

Gao Jianli looked at Li Shui in confusion: "What is your purpose?"

Li Shui said: "There is no purpose. I sold you to Tian Jing. If I don't hand you over to him tomorrow, the money won't count. And after he takes you away, he will probably turn around and send you to the palace. You should

No chance of escape."

Gao Jianli nodded slowly.

Li Shui walked over and patted Gao Jianli on the shoulder: "Originally, I could kill you directly. It's simple and convenient, and it's all over. But... I've heard of your name before, and I admire you a little. I really couldn't bear to do it, so I took the risk.

Save your life, hope you take care of yourself."

Gao Jianli said nothing.

Li Shui added: "Finally, I'll give you a piece of advice. Even if you don't want to assassinate the emperor, don't stay in the palace. Find a way to escape. Otherwise, you will be reported sooner or later. If your majesty knows that you are Jing Ke's friend, you will die.

undoubtedly."

"After you die, good people will inevitably say that for the sake of glory and wealth, Gao Jianli forgot the hatred of his friends and flattered and served the king. As a result, he was reported and his head was missing. It is sad, ridiculous and pitiful."

Gao Jianli's face turned pale after hearing this.

Li Shui smiled and said to Li Xin: "Brother Li, untie him and let's go."

Li Xin swung his sword and cut off the rope on Gao Jianli's body, and the two of them left.

Li Xin asked Li Shui: "Are you sure that he will not assassinate Your Majesty tomorrow?"

Li Shui said: "I'm pretty sure. What I said makes sense, and he obviously listened to it. Only fools will continue to be assassins. People must gain something when they do something. If he assassinates His Majesty, he will get anything.

If he doesn't, he will be infamy for eternity, so why bother?"

Li Xin nodded in agreement.

…………

Gao Jianli threw the rope on the ground and walked slowly out of the alley. At this moment, he wanted to escape, but Li Shui was very cautious and had asked Wang Laoshi to send someone to follow him every step of the way.

Li Shui was right. Gao Jianli was very good at building, but his skills were not good. Now he was being targeted. It was impossible to escape.

He sighed and silently returned to the Exalted Immortal Tower.

It was getting dark soon, but Gao Jianli couldn't eat. He looked at the vast night outside and thought about Li Shui's words repeatedly. The more he thought about it, the more there was no way out. He felt that his whole life was just like the dark night outside, unable to see anything.

A way out.

Gao Jianli suddenly wanted to commit suicide, but then he thought, he was dead now, and if Li Shui couldn't hand over the money on time tomorrow morning, a sum of money would be lost.

Will he take revenge on himself and deliberately create some scandals for himself? Yes, such a shameless person will definitely do it.

Gao Jianli suddenly envied Li Shui. This man was shameless and didn't care about reputation at all. Instead, he lived a very nourishing and free life.

In this way, Gao Jianli struggled again and again until dawn.

The sun had just risen, and Tian Jing couldn't wait to arrive.

Last night, he had informed Ying Zheng through Ji Ming that he would send a musician who was good at building today. It was said that Ying Zheng was very happy.

Tian Jing saw Gao Jianli's skills with his own eyes. He felt that after Ying Zheng heard this, he would be very happy and might be given a title on the spot. In that case, there would be no need to pass the imperial examination and he could be directly ranked as a minister.

The more Tian Jing thought about it, the more beautiful it became. He couldn't wait to pick up Gao Jianli and went directly to the palace.
