All the patrolling officers and soldiers immediately stopped moving and froze in place.
The only patrolman who managed to avoid him at the critical moment, as a third-level master, was covering the right side of his face.
He avoided his forehead, but not his cheeks.
A sharp numbness spread from his face and soon covered his whole body.
Plop.
The patrolman fell to his knees and opened his mouth to make a sound.
His vision began to blur, and it was not easy for him to climb to this level.
But now...
He thought of his wife who had warm meals waiting for him at home, and of his son who had an appointment with him in the morning to tutor him in calligraphy.
There was deep reluctance in his eyes...
"Don't you want to give up...?"
Suddenly, a pair of silver-white women's boots walked in front of him.
"Unexpected harvest." The woman's voice came in a trance.
The patrolman suddenly felt a chill in his mouth, as if something cool had flowed into his mouth.
As that thing flowed in, the numbness on his cheeks began to fade away quickly.
In a blur, he saw the dull, mask-like face of the woman.
The person who rescued him was none other than Tongzhang, the master of the black list and the most notorious goddess in the induction sect.

In the room late at night.
Zhang Rongfang returned to the room and breathed a sigh of relief.
He touched his right arm, and with the last stab, he used the power of the limit-breaking technique to shrink back the mountain.
He definitely cut off the fingers and head of the Taoist monk who was blocking the way.
But after all, the other party is the former sixth grade.
Even if he had been squatting for a long time, he took advantage of the danger and made a sneak attack when the Taoist priest was drunk and lost his balance.
I'm still injured...
With the help of the light, Zhang Rongfang moved his right arm and felt that the whole arm hurt even if he moved it even slightly.
He rolled up his clothes and found that his arms, wrists and elbows were all swollen.
The skin of the hand holding the dagger was bloody and bloody.
'It seems that although I have reached the fourth level with the help of other martial arts, I am still far behind Kaishan in terms of absolute strength of the upper body.'
The Taoist monk Kaishan was about to die in the end. He exerted all his strength and did not care to avoid the dagger's edge.
Just like that, it caused him so much harm.
You know, in previous fights, Taoist Kaishan never dared to confront him head-on because of the dagger.
In other words, if there was no dagger and no silent sneak attack with the advantage of fused body skills, he Zhang Rongfang could fight the Kaishan Taoist fairly and he would be killed on the spot within ten moves.
Although the sixth grade is weakened, his strength is far from what he can match now...
Thinking of this, Zhang Rongfang sighed.
This assassination made him understand his problem.
That is, the speed has increased, but the strength is far behind. If you encounter a master who also carries weapons.
There is a high probability that his hybrid fourth-level fighter will not be able to defeat a real fourth-level martial artist.
"Besides...the woman I met just now..." Inexplicably, Zhang Rongfang felt that the woman was a little strange.
But after all, he was just a passerby, and he forgot about it in the blink of an eye.
Early next morning.
A large group of officers and soldiers from the government came to the Mirror Palace very early to investigate.
Zhang Rongfang had just gotten up and finished his morning classes and was about to replace the patrol, when he was asked to inquire about the situation.
Originally, he thought he was investigating the death of the homeowner who was patrolling the house.
Before accepting the inquiry, everyone was mentally prepared.
Unexpectedly, what the officers and soldiers asked was not just to inspect the house owner, but the real focus was to ask if they had seen a woman who looked like she was wearing a mask last night.
Zhang Rongfang naturally answered no.
Officers and soldiers leave just as quickly as they come.
Soon, the news spread that the house owner who was patrolling Kaishan was killed.
Kaishan's family members came to collect his belongings. They were all crying and their eyes were red and swollen.
In the Palace of Mirrors, the apprentices and subordinates who founded the mountain also looked mournful.
But how many of them are truly sad is a matter of opinion.
After killing Kaishan, Zhang Rongfang naturally did not forget to take the money bag.
To his surprise, a total of five 100-tael silver notes, three 50-tael silver notes, and a pair of gold earrings that seemed to be given away were found in Kaishan's money bag.
However, the money could not be used immediately, so he took the large bills and went out to spend money.
Doesn't this clearly mean there's something wrong with him?
At the moment, he resisted the urge to buy medicine and continued to patrol every day as before.
The new patrol house owner quickly took office, and he was the enemy of the previous founder of the mountain.
This person had just taken office, so he called all his subordinates, gave them a lecture, and then removed the people who had built the mountain before and replaced them with his own people.
It can be said that he doesn’t care about food appearance at all.
This made Zhang Rongfang finally understand that this world is really rotten.
He simply practiced the remaining talismans every day.
In addition to the entry-level one-yuan talisman, he also has the fourth soul-collecting talisman and the fifth hun-yuan talisman, which have no entry level.
These were the key points of practice that his master Zhang Xuan had taught him in advance. As long as he got started first, he could quickly add them through attribute points.
As long as five of the seven talismans are broken, he can become a real fifth-level master. This does not include his additional limit-breaking dragon and snake lifting skills and the eight-step cicada-catching technique.
At the moment, he calmed down, quietly waited for the time, and practiced the talisman every day.

"Kaishan is actually dead?" In the dormitory, Xu Tao frowned.
Kaishan is an important spokesperson that the Xu family has supported over the years.
He possesses a sixth-grade talisman, and he also made a name for himself in the world of Tan Yang when he was young.
Now he died quietly on the way back from the theater at night.
"If an ordinary person were to be attacked and died on the road at night, I would still believe it. But that's the sixth grade!"
The elder brother Xu Yanguan on the side was puzzled.
Although the martial arts taught by the Taoist teachings are not good, the highest level is seventh level, they are not good enough for actual combat.
But that was also the sixth level. He was a powerful warrior who had truly broken through the limit six times.
Who can kill such a master in a very short time?
"Is Kaishan himself making enemies outside?" Xu Yanguan guessed.
"Whether it is or not, the question now is, what will happen to our Xu family?" Xu Tao said solemnly.
The roots of the Xu family lie in the head of the family, who is one of the three masters of the Mingjing Palace.
If this matter is not handled properly, the other people who are attached to the Xu family will definitely have some ideas.
"The person who can kill the person who built the mountain in a short time must be a master. If you rely on us alone and are not good at martial arts, you will definitely not be able to do it. Professional things should still be done by specialized people." Xu Yanguan analyzed.
"You mean...let the Inspection Department intervene?" Xu Tao understood. "Yes, more than ten people on patrol died in one go, and there was also a third-level officer. This matter has become a big deal."
"Although after investigation, it doesn't seem like one person killed him, but since things happened together, the Yamen must pay more attention to it." Xu Yanguan nodded, "Besides, this matter also involves the master of the blacklist induction door..."
Sensor door....
This name can be said to be synonymous with bad reputation among the Great Spirits.
Among the thirty people on the black list, the light sensor gate accounts for one-third of the number.
Its strength and influence are so vast that not even the Ling Ting can do anything about it.
Xuehong Pavilion organized many experts to surround and kill them, but each of them had their own victory or defeat.
The Inspection Department is the Great Spirit Supervision Organization with the most experts in Xuehong Pavilion.
Whenever a master from the black list appears, a ninth-grade master will definitely come here to inspect.

Zhang Rongfang was a little worried at first, but as time went by, in this era without cameras and surveillance.
It is very difficult to find the murderer at night.
He settles down every day, practices martial arts, and studies Taoism.
Taoist scriptures can bring peace of mind and body, which he recently discovered.
After Kaishan's case was solved, it did not exceed his expectations. His temporary job abroad still remained unresolved.
The newly patrolled homeowners are all the same, embezzlement and corruption are even worse than the previous ones in Kaishan.
Zhang Rongfang has also understood that this is the way the world is.
Soon, the time he had been waiting for finally appeared again.
Without medicinal supplements, he just saved up some new attribute points.
Adding the remaining point from before, it becomes two points.
These two points are just enough for the one-yuan talisman to break the limit.
Wow.
Zhang Rongfang poured out all the water in the tub and poured it into the mud in the corner.
Carrying the wooden basin, he turned around and returned to his room, ready to start breaking the one-yuan talisman.
The one-yuan talisman breaks the limit, and he is a third-level master of the Hui Chun Jing Shi talisman.
If you add in the two hidden limit breaks, it would be the fifth level!
Before he knew it, he had already entered this situation.
"Excuse me, is Xia Rongrong here?" At this time, a woman's voice came from outside the yard.
"Not here." Zhang Rongfang replied casually, but when he turned his head, he found that the entire courtyard door was blocked...
A huge woman as round as a ball, wearing a black and purple dress, trying to hide her round figure.
Unfortunately, the layers of fat on her belly still protruded from the middle of the skirt.
"I'm Xia Rongrong's best friend. I'm sorry. When Xia Rongrong comes back, can you help her? I just told Wanyan Lu to come find her."
The fat woman stared at Zhang Rongfang and showed a three-line smile.
Well...two eyes and one mouth, exactly three lines.
"Okay." Zhang Rongfang nodded expressionlessly.
Although he was surprised by the other person's obesity level, after having experienced the impact of the modern information age, he was at best surprised.
His cold reaction made Wanyan Lu's eyes light up.
In the past, no matter who she went to see, the other person would be so frightened that they would back away when they saw her plump figure.
Worse, they might even be called monsters.
But this Rongfang...
"Brother Taoist, aren't you surprised by my body shape?" Wanyan Lu asked in surprise.
"I was surprised." Zhang Rongfang replied.
"But I couldn't see it." Wanyan Luqi said.
"I am born with few expressions." Zhang Rongfang responded casually.
"Then, if there is a girl, she is nice, has a kind heart, and other conditions are very good.
But your body shape is the same as mine. If Brother Tao is asked to marry a girl, would you be willing?" Wan Yanlu asked, somewhat controlling his emotions.
"I don't want to." Zhang Rongfang was a little impatient. He wanted to go back to his room to break the limit spell, so he had no time to waste time with this woman.
"Why?" Wanyan Lu suddenly felt cold. "Is it because you dislike her for being fat?"
"Is that girl sick?" Zhang Rongfang asked.
"I'm not sick." Wanyan Lu replied, a little confused.
"Does she want to lose weight?" Zhang Rongfang asked again.
"Of course. I'm crazy." Wanyan Lu nodded.
"Then why doesn't she reduce her weight?" Zhang Rongfang asked again.
"Uh..." Wanyan Lu suddenly got stuck.
"So, I like people with perseverance and perseverance." Zhang Rongfang summed it up simply.
"As long as you have perseverance, you don't care even if the other person has my size?"
"Of course." Zhang Rongfang nodded.
"However, can someone who is not sick, has perseverance, and doesn't want to gain weight yet, possibly let himself become so fat?"
As soon as these words came out, Wanyan Lu immediately stayed where he was.
Watching Zhang Rongfang return to her room, she seemed to understand something in a daze.
"By the way, if you want to lose weight, eat less rice and pasta." Zhang Rongfang's voice came from the entrance of the room.
Wanyan Lu's face turned red, and he already understood that the other party knew what he meant.
She quickly turned around and staggered away towards the distance.
Several servants came forward to help her, but she pushed them away.
