Screaming the sky with swords

32 Drifting Thousands of Miles, Enlightenment of Life, Turning to City History 2

The waiter in the shop saw three piled corpses as soon as he entered the door, but their deaths were all very miserable. Fortunately, the waiter is not the kind of guy who has never seen a dead person. However, when he saw the faces of the three , but couldn't help but exclaimed.

Zheng Lingxiao turned his head to look at him with a smile and said, "Second brother, do you know these three guys!"

Xiaoer was shocked again when he heard the words, but he didn't expect that such a child would see through his thoughts all at once, but he didn't know that his mental activities were already written on his face, and then he gave a wry smile , said: "These three guys are well-known bastards in our town. They idle around all day long and have no business. However, we residents have nothing to do with them."

At this point, he paused, and continued: "If it's just the three of them, then they will die if they die, but there is a force behind them that we can hardly provoke, hehe, even if this force Even our mayor is unwilling to offend!"

"Oh!" The corners of Brother Yi's mouth curled up slightly, and he said with great interest: "Tell me, there is actually a power in Heilin Town that is stronger than the mayor. I want to see how big it is." Cattle!"

After hearing these words, the waiter in the shop was clouded by mist, and said with some doubts: "Bull?"

Wenren Qiao'er chuckled, and explained: "Hehe, it's not the cattle we plow the land here, this cattle means very powerful."

Xiao Er nodded knowingly and continued: "Actually, this force is not in the town at all, which is the biggest reason why even the mayor can't do anything about them!" Looking at the faintly visible mountain, he said: "Guest officer, can you see that mountain? Hehe, that is the tallest and largest mountain here. Every traveler who comes here has to take a look at it, especially the sunrise and sunset from above, it’s simply too beautiful to behold.”

Speaking of this, Xiaoer seemed to be caught in some kind of memory, and he was a little crazy, and the three of them didn't bother him. After a short while, he came back to his senses, smiled embarrassedly and said: "But, Two years ago, a gang of nasty bandits came there and occupied Qingyun Ridge by force, and no one was allowed to approach it, hey, now, it’s almost like breaking an arm of our Heilin Town.”

Zheng Lingxiao frowned, and asked, "Can the mayor care?"

Xiao Er nodded and said: "In the beginning, the mayor sent people to attack several times, but every time he lost his troops and returned home. Just over half a year ago, these robbers even came to attack the mayor's mansion. , Although the Lord Mayor won in the end, he suffered huge losses, many people died, and even the city guards suffered more than half of the casualties, which caused the Lord Mayor's strength to be greatly damaged, and now he has no way to contend with those bandits!"

"In that case, wouldn't those robbers be able to take whatever they want in this town without any scruples, but I think it's quite quiet here!" Brother Yi said.

Xiao Er shook his head and said: "I don't know about that, it's strange to say, those robbers just attacked the mayor's mansion, killed people and then retreated, and they never messed around in the town, but this one It baffles all of us."

Brother Yi and Wenren Qiaoer were also puzzled when they heard the words, but Zheng Lingxiao smiled lightly and said: "Hehe, this is actually very simple. The reason why those thieves can be so happy and happy is because the mayor He didn't report this to the City Lord's Mansion, think about it, if these thieves go too far and force the mayor to ask for help from the City Lord's Mansion, what will happen to them?"

"Hmph, that's needless to say, it must be the soldiers who suppressed the border and wiped them out!" Wenren Qiao'er suddenly remembered something, and said, "Hey! By the way, why didn't the mayor report to the city lord's mansion? ? Could it be???"

"Hehe, don't make random guesses, the mayor is not in the same group as the thieves, otherwise, Black Forest Town would not be what it is now, the reason why he didn't report it was because these thieves were only active outside the town , the majestic head of a town is at least at the level of a low-rank swordsman, and he can't even deal with a bunch of thieves. If the City Lord's Mansion finds out about this, he will lose his black hat."

Xiaoer suddenly realized when he heard the words, and muttered: "So that's the case, so that's the case, I just said, why has the atmosphere in Heilin Town been so weird in the past two years, hey."

Zheng Lingxiao continued: "Hehe, even the mayor couldn't do anything to these thieves with all his strength. Do you think they are ordinary thieves?"

One word awakened the dreamer, and the first brother and the two had the illusion of being struck by lightning. Wenren Qiaoer said with some difficulty: "Xiao Wu, you mean, these thieves???"

Zheng Lingxiao interrupted her by raising his hand, and said to the waiter in the store: "Second brother, can you clean up this corpse? Also, the mayor won't come to trouble us for this!"

"Hey, guest officer, don't worry too much. People who burglarize like them, the law here is that they deserve to die. As for disposing of the corpse, it's easy. Leave it to us, but you can Be careful, those robbers will take revenge, but as long as you are in this town, you will be fine!" After finishing speaking, the waiter went to his own business.

When I came to the streets of Hei Lin Town again, I felt different from yesterday. Wenren Qiaoer picked up a pair of sea-blue earrings from a roadside stall and said to Brother Yi with a smile on his face: "Hey Hee, do you think I look good in this?"

The first brother picked up the pair of earrings and tried them on her delicate little earlobe, and said with a slightly exaggerated expression: "Well, it's really beautiful. Things are beautiful, and people are even more beautiful. With it as a foil, I don't think there is anyone more beautiful than you!"

Wenren Qiaoer's pretty face immediately flew two red clouds, Rushui Qiu's eyes were full of smiles, but she said insincerely: "I hate it." Then she turned her head and bought it without hesitation. This pair of earrings.

The three of them continued to stroll slowly, but Zheng Lingxiao's mouth showed an imperceptible and cruel arc. Suddenly, Brother Yi turned his head and said, "Xiao Wu, didn't you say you want to set up a ring? What's the name of the punching thing and kicking the north and south, by the way, what's called the couplet, how about it, when are you going to come?"

Zheng Lingxiao chuckled, and said lightly: "There is no need here, after all, we already have a good enemy, hehe, we won't be lonely."

The two of them understood immediately when they heard the words, and the first brother immediately made a gesture to ask, but Zheng Lingxiao waved his hand lightly, and said softly: "Hehe, there is no need, the people who monitor us are not high-level, at this distance there is nothing If you can’t hear what we’re saying, just don’t raise your voice on purpose.”

Wenren Qiaoer said softly: "Xiao Wu, what are we going to do next, are we going to declare war on these thieves?"

Zheng Lingxiao chuckled, and said: "With our current strength, it is impossible to declare war on them, but it is still possible to kill some of their small buildings, and we have already thought about it, these guys are probably the The people sent from that place, after all, their strength is much stronger than ours now. What we have to do now is to first investigate whether the other party is from there. If so, we will You can contact a few elders and ask them to send someone over to pull out this nail!"

The two nodded when they heard the words, and the first brother said: "However, we still don't know their strength, and we don't know many of their conditions. Should we go to the mayor's mansion to clarify their identities, and then consult the mayor?" ?”

Wenren Qiaoer immediately nodded in agreement, but Zheng Lingxiao shook his head and said, "No, we can't be sure whether the mayor is in collusion with those people!"

Wenren Qiao'er was extremely surprised when she heard the words, she widened her eyes and said, "Xiao Wu, are you out of your mind? Didn't you just say that the mayor is fine this morning? Why did you change all of a sudden now?" Woolen cloth!"

Zheng Lingxiao sneered, and said: "It is absolutely impossible to say that the mayor has completely surrendered to the thief. After all, this is his world, unless the other party can give far more benefits than here, but from now on, it is Absolutely impossible, and there was a waiter in the shop at the time, if I really said these words and it was spread, then the hat of slandering the mayor will be taken off me, and we will only have a lot of trouble gone."

"However, if you think about it carefully, the thieves have been here for two years, but the city lord's mansion has not even gotten any news. How is this possible, unless someone deliberately covered up the big thing and made the people above do something Wrong judgment, thinking that this is nothing more than a small group of thieves, this situation only needs to be dealt with by the mayor himself."

The two looked at each other when they heard the words, and the first brother thought for a while and said, "You mean, the mayor and those bandits have reached a consensus on some aspects, and if we rush to ask about it so rashly, it is very likely that he will give it to you." sell!"

Zheng Lingxiao nodded, and said: "We have to guard against it, so we can only rely on ourselves next, as long as the mayor doesn't know our identities, then he won't come in to intervene, because he is happy if we have entanglements with the thieves." have witnessed."

The three of them walked and said, from a distance, they seemed to be chatting and laughing, how could the eyes of those low-rank swordsmen see the mystery, it was evening, and the three of them seemed to be very happy I entered my own small courtyard, and there was a sound of excited dog barking inside. After a while, the waiter in the shop sent in plates of fragrant dishes, imagining the scene of the three of them feasting in the courtyard , the two people who were in charge of monitoring outside couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't help cursing in a low voice.

Soon, after an hour passed, both of them felt that they would not have any other actions, so they quietly disappeared in the darkness. However, just as they disappeared, a small black figure He turned over the courtyard wall and chased them in the direction where they disappeared.

In the yard, the first brother and the two made a pot of tea and sat at the small round table in the middle of the yard. Suddenly, the tea in the pot was gurgling and steaming. He picked it up and took a sip comfortably.

The first brother put down the cup, closed his eyes and murmured: "Well, this way of drinking tea is the real enjoyment, hehe, I don't know how Xiao Wu came up with it, I'm afraid even the city lord doesn't know Bar."

Wenren Qiao'er covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Giggle, when do you think Xiao Wu will come back from this trip, and what else can he get?"

The first brother laughed and said: "Haha, you really give me a problem, we basically don't know the other party's information, how can you tell me to make a judgment, if it's purely guesswork, hehe, take a small In terms of five, it is even lower than the chance of qualifying for the national football team."

Wenren Qiaoer couldn't help frowning when she heard the words, and asked doubtfully, "What does that last sentence mean?"

"Uh, well, um~~ I don't know the details, I just know that it means it's almost impossible." The first brother explained.

Wenren Qiao'er nodded, and didn't worry too much about it. At this moment, a small black shadow swooped in front of the two of them, grabbed the teapot and filled the empty cup, and then After taking a sip carefully, he let out a happy sound.

Brother Yi chuckled, and asked, "You came back from the investigation so soon, how is it, what have you gained?"

Zheng Lingxiao took another sip and said: "There is a contact point for the thieves on the mountain here, and its scale is not small. It should be dedicated to collecting information and buying supplies for the people on the mountain. There are more than 20 people in it. There is also a fifth-level great swordsman sitting in the town."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of both of them lit up, and the first brother said: "How about it, should we destroy this place, maybe we can get a good harvest!"

Wenren Qiaoer nodded again and again with bright eyes, Zheng Lingxiao took another sip, and said with a chuckle: "Of course we can't let them go, otherwise, how can we get information from the mountain and draw their power down from the mountain?" Woolen cloth."

After half an hour, three figures in black jumped out of the small courtyard without a sound, and quickly disappeared into the distance, but the patrolling city guards did not find anything at all. A larger family in the east of the town In front of the yard, brother one looked up, gestured and asked, "Are you sure it's here?"

Zheng Lingxiao nodded, and replied: "The best way to hide is not to find a remote corner, but a place that no one else can think of or dare not think of. The people on the mountain are in league with the people on the mountain!"

Brother Yi nodded and made a gesture. The three jumped over the wall and entered, then separated on their own and ran towards the three rooms. We could hear the faint and even breathing sound inside. Open the window, use a bamboo tube to blow the scented drunk in, then close the window, and go to the next room??????

About a quarter of an hour later, the three of them came to a two-story building in the second courtyard. Zheng Lingxiao pointed to the second floor, and then gestured to explain that there were only three people living there, and one of them was the fifth-level great swordsman. The other two should be his wife and son, but their cultivation base is not high, but they are assassinating this time, so they can't make any noise.

There were no lights in the whole yard, and it was quiet. Zheng Lingxiao came to the largest room on the second floor, and let out the power of his soul to feel it. He found that the great swordsman and his wife were sleeping very deeply. This kid suddenly felt a little wretched. He thought to himself, "It's not because these two exercised too intensely."

Gently opened the window, slowly stretched a piece of bamboo tube in, pointed it at the head of the great swordsman, and blew lightly, a needle as thin as a cow's hair flew away without a sound, even a little There was no sound of breaking wind.

Suddenly, the great swordsman seemed to feel the danger and wanted to react, but now he was hugged tightly by his wife, his body was wrapped in the quilt, and he didn't wear any equipment on his body. His storage bag was out of his reach, so there was no possibility of resistance at all.

With an inaudible bang, the thin needle pierced into his temple, and the strong anesthetic attached to it took effect instantly, making it impossible for him to even utter a scream, but he just twisted his body forcibly a few times. He didn't move at all; at this time, the woman beside him seemed to be awakened by his two strokes, and murmured unhappily: "What are you doing, you are not honest when you are asleep." Then she turned over and fell asleep again Then, another thin needle flew in and shot into her head.

At the same time, the first brother and the two also came out of another room. They just nodded without saying a word. Zheng Lingxiao took out two white porcelain bottles and handed them to the two, saying: "This is corpse water, as long as you pour it on them Just a little bit, but don’t get it on yourself, it’s terrible, hehe, this trick taught by Mr. Jin Yong is really wonderful, hehe.”

For these new words of his, the two of them were already familiar with them, and they didn't bother to ask what he meant, so they went to work separately. Zheng Lingxiao came to a small room on the first floor. It was a bit messy, and it looked like a In the utility room, with a slight smile, he groped around the walls. Suddenly, a hidden compartment popped up, twisted the small mechanism inside, and a floor about one square meter was cracked, revealing A sloping passage.

The smile on his face was even bigger, Zheng Lingxiao walked down slowly, about 20 meters away, a thick iron gate appeared in front of him, with a moonstone the size of a baby's fist inlaid on both sides, exuding soft fluorescence Light up this area, turn the mechanism on the wall next to it, and the iron gate just rattled apart to the two sides. However, when Zheng Lingxiao's smile gradually widened, there was a cold light towards him from inside the gate shot at the door.
