Gong Shangqing's death spread throughout the streets and alleys of Tianying City at noon the next day.
This was not because the little gods in Gong Shangqing's residence were slow to react, but because nearly twenty people were killed in this tragedy. When the little gods in Gong Shangqing's residence came to their senses, no one reported the news to the commander Li Tan in time.
, instead he was digging deep into the ground to find the murderer.
When Gong Shangqing's subordinates realized that there were no clues and no one could be found, they thought of reporting the news to Commander Li Tan who lived outside Tianying's capital city.
The cave in the north of the city...
Li Tan sat in the mansion with a gloomy face, looking at the little god kneeling below with a livid face, without saying a word.
Standing below him were two people, both Li Tan's confidants, one named Wu Gang and the other Yan Rong.
These two people are both first-level gods. In the first-level realm, Tianying is also among the best.
Seeing that Li Tan had an ugly face and said nothing, Wu Gang asked the little god who came to report the news: "Did you see the face of the person who killed Gong Shangqing?"
The little god replied: "I didn't see it. The place where the accident happened is in the private cave of the steward. That place is a bit remote. The master is in retreat. When he is in retreat, except for the sixteen relatives, no one is allowed.
The rest of us who were close to the cave were all on the outskirts of the village, and somehow, that person entered the village."
"This person acted very decisively, and none of the sixteen followers survived. All the Qiankun bags on their bodies were gone, including the one on the steward, as well as all the heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the cave. None of them were left.
.”
Yan Rong thought for a while and asked, "Just for money?"
The little god replied: "My subordinates dare not break the law, but the most likely thing is to seek wealth. Lord Commander, two lords, the resources in the Western Border are extremely scarce at the moment. Countless murders and robbery occur every day in various parts of the Western Border. Seeing wealth
Isn't it just for the sake of the sacred stone that the comrades killed each other because of the incident? Otherwise, my subordinates really can't figure out why someone would kill Lord Gong."
Yan Rong frowned and was silent for a long time before he said: "Is it possible that Huang Chong did it? He was trying to spread suspicion."
"You mean, in order to weaken our strength, Huang Chong started looking for people to assassinate our people?" Wu Gang felt Yan Rong's concerns, and then said: "It is possible, Huang Chong can't do this.
But I heard that he is looking for Lu Chaoyuan and Ding Junting in order to recruit troops recently, can he still be distracted enough to deal with us?"
Because there are no detailed clues, it is difficult for Yanrong to answer.
The two looked at each other, and then simultaneously looked at Li Tan sitting above.
Li Tan still looked taciturn.
After more than a minute, Li Tan asked: "How do people die?"
The little god replied: "Sword wounds, sword wounds all over the body... When my subordinates found the body, there were as many as twenty sword wounds on the adult's body, ten of which were fatal wounds. The adult's Qingbo Jade Gang Bowl
It was also destroyed, and the adults' feet were once bound. Judging from the situation at the scene, the person who came here must have sneaked into the stronghold in an extremely cunning way. He first used thunder to kill the people standing outside.
Sixteen little gods, and then used magic to forcefully destroy the stone gate of the adult's cave. It can be seen that the adult should have discovered the murderer before being attacked, and should have confronted the murderer in front of the stone gate for a period of time, and then
After moving his hands, you can tell from the mud and loess on your feet that he was hit by a trap before he died, and then he fought fiercely with the murderer. There are also traces of the Shining Blade and Qingbo Jade Gang Bowl that you used, and they are everywhere on the walls of the cave.
The scars were caused by the sword energy. Apparently, after a fierce confrontation, the master was finally defeated and killed by the sword energy."
Xiaoshen deduced the entire process of Gong Shangqing's death based on the situation at the scene, and he was almost right.
It can be seen that when Feng Jueyu killed someone, he didn't care at all whether he would be found out.
This move is either extremely conceited or reckless and reckless without considering the consequences.
Li Tan was not too angry after hearing this, but said very calmly: "So, how many people are there in Gong Shangqing's village?"
"Eighty-three people." The little god who spoke had worked for Gong Shangqing for many years. He was the equivalent of a general manager in the village and was very familiar with the situation in the village.
"Gather all your people together and go out to find my murderer."
Li Tan ordered: "If this person came to seek money and killed Gong Shangqing, then after he successfully killed Gong Shangqing, he would definitely make further moves. After all, killing people and buying goods is addictive, and the money will be wasted."
If you get it so easily, and there are so many treasures of heaven and earth, a person will be aroused with greed. If Gong Shangqing can't feed him enough, he will definitely take action again."
"Looking for this murderer. He killed one of my generals at such a critical moment. It's really abominable."
Wu Gang said: "But if the murderer did not come here to seek money, what if the looting of Gong Shangqing was just to cover up people's eyes?"
Li Tan said: "No matter what his reason is, he will definitely take action again. After all, if he really wants to break my wings, he will have no reason to stop."
Li Tan said: "Yan Rong, please send someone immediately to keep a close eye on our own people. See if there are any other unusual movements around our own people recently? If so, carefully observe his purpose, warn him in time, and then catch him.
Get rid of this madman."
"yes."
"Yan Rong, I'll leave this matter to you."
After Li Tan finished speaking, his subordinate said very seriously: "Wu Gang, you should also pay attention to Huang Chong and the other commanders. Lu Chaoyuan and Ding Junting, you also need to send people to contact them to see if they can win over Huang Chong.
Now that Lu Chaoyuan and Ding Junting have completely turned against each other, now is the best time to win over them. As long as Huang Chong is eliminated in Dragon Tooth Illusion, the Eagle City will be our world from now on."
"Yes, sir."
Everyone took orders and retreated one after another.
…
At the same time, deep in the steel fir forest...
Lu Chaoyuan, who had been avoiding Huang Chong, was waiting with Liang Shen and others for news about Feng Jueyu.
Liang Shen: "It's been several days, how come there's no news? Brother Lu, do you think that boy can do it? The person who assassinated Li Tan is not that simple. His upper lip and lower lip touched each other, and we
Isn't it a bit funny to trust him so much?"
Another steward also said: "Yes, that boy is a little god. I don't believe he can kill Li Tan's steward god. Besides, there is no news now. Do you think we should touch Lan Gan?"
Ah? Don’t let us take action. If something goes wrong on his side, doesn’t that mean we’re in trouble?”
"Yes, yes, there is no news from him for a day, so we can't easily touch Lan Gan. Waiting like this is not an option."
"If you ask me, we can't place our hopes on a little god. What can he do? Just dare to swear that he can kill gods. He's just a little god. It's too overestimating his capabilities."
"..."
Everyone was talking about it, and the overall point of view was that Feng Jueyu didn't have the strength at all, and it turned Tianying into a pot of muddy water.
Lu Chaoyuan closed his eyes and thought for a long time, then said: "Like you, I also have doubts about this matter, but we can't deny that his interference is indeed the most beneficial way for us at the moment... Not to mention whether he can Let's succeed. We can't put all our bets on him. We still have to discuss our countermeasures. This Lan Gan should be killed or killed, but we must think of a foolproof strategy. After killing him, no one will know that we The real purpose is to force us to have no choice but to counterattack. Only in this way can we successfully participate in this battle when the Dragon Fang Illusion opens."
"Then let's discuss how to deal with Lan Gan. We don't need to pay attention to that little god."
"Then let's discuss it."
Lu Chaoyuan called everyone together and was about to discuss the plan step by step.
At this moment, a little god ran over in a panic and shouted: "My lord, my lord, is there any news?"
"Whoa!"
Everyone turned around in unison, their movements so neat.
"Why are you panicking? Don't panic. What's the news?" Liang Shen asked eagerly.
The little god clasped his fists and said, "News just came from the city. Last night, Gong Shangqing, a steward of Master Li Tan, died in his cave."
"Who are you talking about? Gong Shangqing?" Everyone exclaimed at the same time.
Because everyone knows Gong Shangqing.
Liang Shen said: "What, Gong Shangqing is dead? How did he die?"
"I'm not sure about the specifics. I just know that there were more than twenty swords in his body, and he died with him, as well as the sixteen guards who guarded the cave where he was practicing in seclusion."
After hearing this, a god-man stared at Old Dao Dao: "Gong Shangqing followed Li Tan when he was just promoted to commander. Li Tan's former bodyguard actually died?"
"Continue to stare at Tianying City."
Lu Chaoyuan thought for a while and immediately waved to the little god who reported the message.
The little god leaves.
Everyone was silent for a moment. Lu Chaoyuan looked up at everyone and said, "He succeeded."
Everyone was silent again.
The "he" in Lu Chaoyuan's mouth obviously refers to Feng Jueyu, because they had just made a plan to assassinate Li Tan's men, and Gong Shangqing, Li Tan's men, died. If it was someone else who did it, the possibility was too low.
How could such a coincidence happen?
Therefore, the murderer must be Feng Jueyu.
Lu Chaoyuan smiled and looked at the silent crowd: "Just now you have reduced others to worthless. Now that they have succeeded, what do you have to worry about?"
Liang Shen clicked his tongue and said in surprise: "He really succeeded. I really didn't expect it. But it took him a few days to kill one person. Isn't this too slow?"
Lu Chaoyuan said: "Whoever carries out an assassination operation must not know the target's situation clearly. Anyway, Brother Feng has succeeded. I think this incident is enough to build our trust in him, isn't it?"
