When I saw the hockey mask that looked like it was born out of darkness, I felt my heart tighten.
when?
How did you get in?
How come I didn't notice it at all?
As one of the divine envoys of the Rebirth Cult, his body is different from that of a ghost.
Gui Gou relies entirely on secret techniques to carry out his evil deeds.
One’s own strength is the degree to which one has developed ‘muscles’.
But his behavior is different!
Not only has the three major stages of 'muscles', 'bones' and 'skin training' been completed, but the 'qi and blood' have been condensed, and the 'organs' have been washed and forged. Although the foundation is a bit unstable and the condensation has not yet begun.
"Marrow", but the organ itself has already carried a thousand pounds of strength, has a sharp ear and eyesight, and cannot be touched by mosquitoes or flies, and cannot be touched by any leaves.
Moreover, because the ‘secret martial arts’ practiced have special effects.
He is far stronger than warriors of the same level.
But just like that, someone would sneak up on him unknowingly.
Enemy!
An unprecedented enemy!
If the alarm bell rings in your heart, you should open your mouth and test it with words.
But with a flash of cold light, it was already in front of him.
The mover immediately raised his hand to stop him.
Instantly, the temperature in the room began to plummet.
A layer of frost spread from the location of the moving tool in all directions to the west.
Naturally, this includes Jason's location.
Jason was covered in ice.
Even the cold light brought by the short blade was frozen in mid-air.
A ferocious smile appeared on Qian Gu's face.
"Although I don't know how you sneaked in here, death is your only destination."
Qianju said something like this.
It is also the last sentence of Qianju.
Just when Qian Gu thought he was sure of victory, the short blade frozen in mid-air suddenly started to accelerate again.
puff!
The sharp blade passed over the neck of the bird.
Qian Ju was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously raised his hand to cover his neck, but it was completely unable to stop the gushing blood.
As a warrior who has condensed his "qi and blood" and completed the flushing and forging of his "viscera", the Qi and blood of his weapon is very strong. When it is sprayed out at this time, it is like a high-pressure water gun and it hits the wall. Even,
The walls have been washed away.
Qianju tried his best to fight back, but Jason was faster.
The short blade that passed over the bird's neck went straight into the bird's chest.
My heart was immediately broken.
Qianju's eyes began to wander.
He stared hard at Jason, who had recovered as before, with unwillingness in his eyes.
Yes, unwilling.
He was about to start condensing the 'bone marrow'. He had gone through a lot of hard work to reach such a state. Why did he die like this?
Of course, the most unwilling thing is the enemy in front of you.
He was obviously a strong person, but he still used this method to paralyze him.
He was so unwilling.
If he had a face-to-face fight with the opponent, he believed he would not lose.
But by this time, it's too late to say anything.
Eventually, the tool slipped from the chair.
At this time, Jason thought silently in his heart——
Yi!
A silver slash passed through Qiangu's body, and the chair beneath him was silently split into two.
By this time, the bird was too dead to be dead anymore.
Jason still waved the short blade in his hand.
puff!
The severed head was cut off.
After completing this step, Jason stopped.
There is nothing wrong with being habitually cautious.
Especially for Jason, who has experienced too many dungeon worlds and seen too many 'immortal' creatures and monsters, physical destruction is no longer the basis of Jason's 'caution', so using [Destroying Evil] is the only way to do it again.
Base.
Then?
Naturally, it burns with fire.
Of course, before that, Jason walked over to the disembodied body.
Soon, a pamphlet, a palm-sized box and a bag appeared in Jason's hands.
The first half of the booklet is a record of Qian Gu’s daily practice of ‘secret martial arts’, and the second half is the inheritance of this ‘secret martial arts’.
[The special inherited object ‘Ice Palm’ was found, and it is being judged...]
[It is judged that unarmed combat has reached the master level, and the judgment is passed!]
[Yes/No, it consumes 200 satiety points and includes it as an additional option?]
…
‘Another 200 satiety levels?’
'good.'
Jason commented.
Maybe he can't tell the quality of this special inheritance, but judging by the amount of satiety, he must be right.
Then, Jason checked the box again.
The strong fragrance inside made the corners of his mouth curl up.
However, Jason did not open it immediately.
This place is not suitable for eating.
In addition to these two items, the bag on the body is similar to a wallet. In it, Jason found two gold tickets, one fifty, one twenty, as well as ten oceans and two dollars.
A twelve-dollar note, and a letter sealed with wax.
Jason put the box containing the 'secret medicine' into the bag, put it in his arms, and picked up the letter.
After carefully checking that there was no poison trap, Jason tore the letter open.
The letter was written very simply, just two words: suspended.
'Delay?'
Jason squinted his eyes and had some guesses in his heart.
Then he sniffed the letter.
After confirming that it was written with ordinary pen and ink, and that there were no words hidden inside with any potion, he threw the letter directly onto the corpse, and then Jason began to clean the battlefield again.
Cleaning the battlefield is not just about licking bags, but also about collecting valuable things.
He still had to destroy the traces of his existence. Maybe the flames would make these traces non-existent, but before the flames burned him, he would still do it with his own hands as a habit.
After doing all this, Jason knocked over the kerosene lamp.
However, when lighting it, Jason hesitated slightly, picked up the broad beans, dried beans, and wine on the table, and held them in one hand.
Even though it's frozen, the food is still food.
There is nothing wrong with food.
It shouldn't have burned like this.
call!
Jason walked out of the window, flames rising behind him.
Wooden furniture contaminated with kerosene was the first to be set on fire, followed by the entire house and corpses.
By the time Jason left North City, the roof of the house was burned through.
"It's gone!"
"It's gone!"
Neighbors shouted loudly and spontaneously organized to put out the fire.
Soon, a young man pushing a simple firetruck appeared.
"Brother Xun is here! Brother Xun is here!"
"Here! Here!"
"Quickly put out the fire!"
When people saw this figure, they shouted repeatedly.
The young man immediately rushed towards the fire.
The fire was quickly brought under control.
However, the exclamation caused when the body was discovered in the house made the young man frown.
"Why is it always like this lately?"
Brother Xun muttered to himself in confusion, but immediately began to organize a crowd to stop the surrounding neighbors.
He is only responsible for putting out fires.
The aftermath is not his responsibility.
We have to wait until someone comes from the Yamen.
About ten minutes later, Jia Youcai appeared with a team of five detectives.
They all came on horseback.
"How's the situation?"
Jia Youcai turned over and dismounted and asked.
"There are casualties. It's an old man who rents here. He makes a living by telling stories on weekdays. But for some reason, he suffered such a disaster today."
Brother Xun answered clearly and logically.
Jia Youcai nodded and strode into the house.
By this time, the house had already been completely destroyed by the fire.
The moved corpses became charred corpses.
'Did Mr. Mu do it?'
Jia Youcai looked at the exhumed body and speculated in his heart. He carefully checked the mouth and nose of the deceased. There were no ashes inside, which proved that the other party was already dead before the fire.
And the blade is even smoother.
It shows that not only was his head cut off before he died, but his body was also cut open.
'This doesn't seem to be Mu Ye's handiwork... But how could it be such a coincidence? Someone died here just after Mu Ye left?'
Jia Youcai thought about it, and the elegance in his eyes became determined.
Regardless of whether this guy is the mastermind behind this incident or not, since he has hit this point, he has to help Master Mu deal with it.
"Someone, wrap the body and carry it back to the Yamen."
Jia Youcai ordered.
Several detectives reluctantly began to pack the bodies.
At this time, Jia Youcai walked out and said loudly to the surrounding neighbors: "After investigation, this was an accident. The deceased accidentally knocked over the oil lamp while drinking, causing this accident. I hope everyone will pay attention to it in the future."
"Is it an accident?"
"I'll just say it was an accident. How could something happen in a mountain city every three days?"
"Yes, I saw this old man going to the alley entrance to drink and buy broad beans and dried beans in the evening."
"So that's it."
Faced with Jia Youcai's rhetoric, the surrounding neighbors quickly accepted it.
Jia Youcai got on his horse and headed towards the Yamen.
What he said just now was said casually, but he didn't expect it to happen.
'That's good, it saves me having to tell the store.'
Thinking of this, Jia Youcai kept urging his horse.
At the yamen gate, Jia Youcai got off his horse and walked directly towards the hall.
The candles were brightly lit, Li Deshang was sitting at the main seat, and Xu Dashan was accompanying him on one side.
"Sir, the person is dead."
Jia Youcai bowed and replied, telling the whole story.
Xu Dashan began to sweat on his forehead as he listened.
A warrior who is comparable to a 'skin trainer' is worthy of awe.
But a warrior who is comparable to a 'skin trainer' but doesn't follow the rules is terrifying.
'Your selection method is good.'
'But I chose the wrong person.'
The old owner of Hongxiangfang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Infinite emotion arose in my heart.
At the same time, this old boss who had been in business for decades immediately raised Mu Bai's treatment level in his heart by several levels.
This kind of person can only be treated with respect and not with contempt.
"Um."
Li Deshang nodded, and then looked at Xu Dashan.
That look speaks for itself.
Xu Dashan immediately raised his hands and said that he knew nothing and saw nothing.
This kind of cooperation brought a smile to Li Deshang's slightly pale face.
"Shopkeeper Xu, I am still very curious about the 'Pursuant Rebirth Cult'. Can you tell me more about it?"
Li Deshang asked.
The chief officer of "Mountain City" always feels that the matter of "Pursuant Religion" is not simple.
It was like a thorn piercing his heart, making him feel uneasy.
Xu Dashan didn't think much about it, and recounted the information about the 'rebirth religion' he had obtained from his own channels.
Jia Youcai lowered his head and listened.
Although I didn’t quite understand what I heard, I couldn’t help but be secretly frightened by the power of the ‘Pursuant Rebirth Cult’.
Except for the "Bianzhou", there are more or less traces of "Pursuantism" in all the capitals of the empire, but it is not as strong as in the "Bianzhou", and it is a small incident.
However, Jia Youcai always felt that it should be more than that.
However, Li Deshang's brows relaxed and lost the solemnity at the beginning.
After talking for about half an hour, as Li Deshang picked up the tea cup, Xu Dashan left in a wise manner.
When only Li Deshang and Jia Youcai were left in the hall, Li Deshang looked at his confidants who looked puzzled.
"Do you think why Beidu doesn't care about this kind of thing?"
Li Deshang asked.
"yes!"
"This 'Pursuant Rebirth Cult' has obviously evil intentions. It has already captured our city. Once it succeeds, it will sweep the world."
Jia Youcai nodded, and in his mind could not help but think of what those storytellers said about "the dragon and the snake rising from the land, chasing the deer in the Central Plains".
Hearing his confidant's words, Li Deshang burst into laughter. He just looked at Jia Youcai, and his gaze made Jia Youcai couldn't help but scratch his head.
"Sir, did I make a mistake?"
Jia Youcai couldn't help but ask.
"Wrong."
"That's right."
Li Deshang chuckled softly.
Jia Youcai became increasingly confused.
What's the meaning?
He looked at Li Deshang, hoping to get an answer.
Li Deshang did not hide anything anymore and said softly: "If it was the previous dynasty, such a thing would naturally happen, but in this dynasty it is impossible."
"Why?"
Jia Youcai asked blankly.
"Because...'wu'!"
"Because, a truly powerful warrior can conquer mountains and seas! He can form an army by himself!"
"The founder of the empire was such a figure. The ancestors of the current Dukes of Gonggun were also similar figures back then, even the 'Li Family of the Northern Capital' was no exception."
"They created everything in the empire, and their martial arts were also 'inherited'."
"And others? Other forces?"
"There is no such inheritance."
"To give you the simplest example, you have seen how powerful Brother Mu is. Then imagine what it would be like if there were hundreds of people like Brother Mu wearing double armor and holding axes to kill the enemy. Even if the enemy has
One hundred thousand people, but without true inheritance, cannot become warriors. After all, they are like a mantis trying to block a chariot, and are vulnerable to a single blow."
Li Deshang asked.
Jia Youcai shuddered after thinking about it.
Seeing the appearance of his confidant, Li Deshang laughed.
"So, the 'Pursuant Religion' will not succeed. As long as it continues to develop, it will attract the attention of the Central Province, and that will be the time for their demise!"
"What I was most worried about before was that the 'Pursuant Religion' was seeking the land of 'Bianzhou' and would surround the people. Even if the empire sent troops to 'Bianzhou', disaster would befall them."
"But now?"
"I'm not worried anymore."
"Since they have created such a big situation, the 'Pursuant Rebirth Sect' will be destroyed within three months."
Li Deshang said loudly.
At this moment, the officer in charge of ‘Mountain City’ was full of confidence.
This is the same even if he already knows that the 'Purana Cult' has so-called divine messengers.
In Li Deshang's view, the so-called divine envoys are just more powerful warriors.
But as long as the top officials of the empire are paying attention, what does such a warrior mean?
After all, the most powerful warriors in the empire are among these high-level officials.
And, there are a lot of them.
Thinking of this, a stone fell in the heart of the "Mountain City" officer.
He breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the sky that was getting brighter soon, got up and walked out.
"Let's go and ask my brother Mu to have breakfast."
