Chapter 311: The End of the Year

The battle situation in the first round of the flag battle is generally crisp and neat, because it is a randomly selected opponent, more than two hundred building-level organizations are mixed battles, and under normal circumstances, it is difficult to encounter two warriors who are very strong and have obvious differences in strength, and they can usually solve the battle in a very short time.

But because there are more than 700 warriors participating in the battle, it still takes a certain amount of time to try one by one in these sixty-four rings, and because the number of participants is an odd number, and there must be one person who has a bye, he doesn't have to participate in the first round of the competition, and he doesn't know who the lucky one is, but Jiang Ming is really not very lucky.

After facing Na Jia Hao, he met a very skilled eighth-stage peak martial artist in the second round in the afternoon, although the ending still did not change, but it took Jiang Ming a lot of effort, because all the names were blocked during the game, and Jiang Ming didn't know what the name of the young martial artist who was kicked down by him was in the ring, only that he was one hundred and three.

As night fell, Jiang Ming and Lin Han returned to the house to rest, Hao and Miao came to condole, both of them said ordinary diplomatic words, but Jiang Ming found that Hao seemed to have experienced a vicious battle, and the whole person was mentally exhausted and injured, while Miao seemed much more normal, as if he had not experienced a battle.

After washing, the catering coped, but the two did not rest, this Lin Han watched the battle offstage, and at the same time looked at strange things around, borrowing the name of the audience to find many things, this is the vigilance that they have formed a habit for so long.

Jiang Ming shook his arms, lay down on the chair, and said, "Is it possible to give up the death of the forty-fifth banner master in the seventh act? ”

Lin Han said: "Many people hope that this is the case, but it turns out that since the turmoil has started, there is no way to stop easily. Although it seems that they are all preparing for the flag battle on the surface, there are still a lot of agents from Act 7 wandering around, and I walked around the sixty-four rings and found that there are still a lot of prying eyes. ”

Jiang Ming's face suddenly became serious, and he said: "If you say this, it seems that the seventh act is intended to focus on the flag battle, and Mingli still starts the flag battle, which does not hinder the major events of the seventh act, and secretly continues to investigate the death of the flag master, which shows that in the eyes of the seventh act, the interests of the overall situation are still completely more important than the life and death of the individual." ”

Lin Han said: "There is no way to do this, all the members of the seventh act organization have extremely strict rules, and many people are forcibly instilled with that part of the mind, which is not something that can be changed by one or two people." However, I have heard a few people talking about the dead bannerman's subordinates. ”

Jiang Ming said: "What's wrong with the 45th Banner? Could it be that the people of that banner are in chaos?"

Lin Han said: "It's not that there is chaos, there are many high-level suppressions in the seventh act, even if the news of the death of the banner master is made public, it may not be chaotic." It's just that the annex building-level organizations of those flags are stared at by some people, and all the landlords are called by the big inspector and don't know what to say, but the people who make those building-level organizations know that they are all panicked, and those who don't know are still in the dark, and after all, it is only some people who feel strange. ”

Jiang Ming sneered and said: "If I am the big superintendent, I really can't close the case in a short period of time and find out where the murderer is, so I will forcibly slander that the forty-five banner lord of the place has been dealt with by the enemy, and then warn all the building-level organizations to take strict rules, this is much better than the current situation, if someone reveals the news that the forty-fifth banner owner is dead, it will be difficult for them to continue this flag battle." ”

Lin Han frowned slightly, and teased: "Your idea is really vicious, after all, the owner of the 45th Banner is also a victim, not only was his life taken, but he was also accused of such a crime by you, if he is heard, I am afraid that he will run out of the coffin." ”

Jiang Ming said with a smile: "Although it is a little vicious, it is the most practical method, and there is no need to divide within the seventh act for this matter, and the flag battle can also be carried out peacefully, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone." Since the banner master is dead, what else is there to complain about, if someone slanders him, he will be killed on the same charge. ”

Lin Han also smiled, and then suddenly became serious, and said: "You say, the two of us should be the only witnesses that night, whether you want to sell this matter to the seventh act, maybe there will be some benefits, and more importantly, maybe you can let Chang An let you go, although this is a small plan, but it is not ruled out that you can really do this." ”

Jiang Ming smiled: "How is it possible? If we confess that we know the truth, and don't say whether they will believe us, even if we do, we can't be friends with the seventh act, and it is very likely that we will be assassinated by them, and we can make this kind of scandal float to the strength, those people in the seventh act are not so stupid." ”

Lin Han said: "You have a point, but there is one person who can't." Everything in this world is made up of interests, and as long as we stand on the same position, we can have the right to speak. ”

"Are you talking about Chang An?" rubbing his chin with his left hand, Jiang Ming thought for a long time, and said: "This is possible, with Chang An's means, this kind of news must have a lot of effect for him, and he seems to be hinting at us during the day, but I have no reason to trade with him now, and I am not very happy to let him get benefits." What's more, I experienced a day of flag battles today, and found that it can still be controlled, although there are many masters, but the rules say stop the killer, if I meet someone who is difficult to match, I will naturally choose to admit defeat earlier, and there is not much danger in counting. ”

A trace of worry flashed in Lin Han's eyes, but because he still believed in Jiang Ming, he had no other doubts, and only said: "I'm all observing, then you can participate in the battle with peace of mind, competing with various martial artists is also an improvement for your martial arts, if you are not forced by others, it will be more comfortable." ”

That's it.

Second.

"No. 532 in the South Third Ring against No. 301, remember not to be a killer in the competition, and the offender will be dealt with strictly. The competition begins!"

"Five hundred and thirty-two wins. ”

"No. 532 in the South Third Ring against No. 710, remember not to be a killer in the competition, and the offender will be dealt with strictly. The competition begins!"

"Five hundred and thirty-two wins. ”

"No. 532 in the South Third Ring against No. 92, remember not to be a killer in the competition, until the point is reached, the offender will be dealt with strictly. The competition begins!"

"Five hundred and thirty-two wins. ”

......

The fourth flag battle came to an end, Jiang Ming had already participated in eight more battles in these battles, and none of the eight were defeated, most of the martial artists encountered were at the level of the eight-stage person, but two were more special, one was a seven-stage martial artist, not as arrogant as the others, and Jiang Ming did not let him lose too ugly.

The other person is a half-step nine-stage person, this kind of strength can be regarded as a high-level level of the entire flag battle, but he met Jiang Ming, although it took some effort, but it made the martial artist lose convincingly. Being able to defeat the half-step nine-dan at the peak of the eight-dan rank can be regarded as a very good record.

But on the night after the end of this flag battle, it was also in the dark night, Jiang Ming's strange sense came again, this time he didn't go out of the city to see, only that formation master in the entire Fencheng could attract his attention, but he didn't know what the fiftieth flag master was doing.

At the second dawn, Chang An came here, his expression was flustered, and he seemed to have lost his calmness for a long time. Seeing that Chang An hurriedly withdrew the surrounding manpower, and even Hao Miao and the two stayed outside to sentry, Jiang Ming and Lin Han noticed that the atmosphere was wrong, so they calmed down.

Chang An said: "Do you know what happened late last night?"

Jiang Ming was suddenly shocked, but in order to prevent him from showing anything, he deliberately put on a flat look.

Chang An said: "The 46th Banner Banner Master is dead. ”

Jiang Ming and Lin Han were quite shocked, a high-ranking and powerful flag owner died in the territory of the seventh act, this is not only a scandal of the flag, but also a scandal of the seventh act, but the two of them did not expect that this was only a few days, and this kind of thing happened again, which made the group of high-level leaders in the seventh act in Fencheng deal with it?

Jiang Ming said: "The life and death of the flag master is not a trivial matter, I am afraid it will cause the movement of the seventh act of the entire Fencheng, Chang'an Mansion Master, I don't know if this matter has been clarified." ”

Chang An stared at Jiang Ming with dead eyes and said: "These things have been taken over by several flag owners and supervisors, the landlord and those in the following positions can't ask about it, let alone rumor, this is an order issued by the flag owners." ”

Jiang Ming said: "It's just that the lord of Chang'an told us like this, it seems that he has already violated the order of the high-level of the seventh act, right?"

Chang An sighed slightly, and said: "This matter is actually impossible to cover up, there have long been people who don't know where they saw the corpse of the banner master of the forty-six banners, and spread the news, as the saying goes, people are terrible, this has long been known by many people, even if I don't say it, you will know it from the mouth, it's just a matter of time." ”

Lin Han said: "Chang'an landlord, are you afraid that this matter will affect the progress of the flag battle?"

Chang An was slightly stunned, but he didn't refute, and said: "Naturally, I'm afraid, the flag war is held every ten years, and I have been preparing for this flag battle for too long, if the flag war is terminated, my plan will all fall through, which may not have anything to do with you, but it makes all my hard work and accumulation come to naught." ”

Jiang Ming shrugged his shoulders indifferently, Chang An is a person who is familiar with the world, so he naturally knows what kind of posture is easier to pity, but Jiang Ming will not. He still remembered the generosity of the alchemist when he promised him, and he had turned the murderer of the alchemist into a look at him, which he could not tolerate. No matter what Chang An is, he will not be moved in the slightest.

Jiang Ming said coldly: "In this case, then please ask the owner of Chang'an to go back, you stay here with me, if you are monitored by the high-level of the seventh act, maybe you will have to put on a hat for spreading rumors, and then you will still miss the champion of the flag battle because of this trumped-up crime." ”

Chang An breathed a heavy sigh of relief and said: "In that case, let me say it directly, before the flag battle started, there was a night when you knocked out my people and went outside the city, and the next day there was such a chaos in the whole city, which is no different from the scene now, you say, do I have reason not to suspect you?"

Jiang Ming said: "Could it be that the owner of Chang'an Mansion is suspicious, and we killed the forty-six banner masters?"

Chang An said: "If you kill, then the one who killed must not be a person." I've been observing for a few days, and I've noticed that one of the higher-ups has disappeared. Guess who it is, it's the owner of the 45 banners, and I have investigated around, and there are a few of my old friends among the 45 banners, and they say that the owners of the 45 banners have no news during this period. ”

"The only news is the news sent by the superintendent, saying that the owner of the 45th Banner has been arranged to do a secret matter, which is not to be publicized. However, this is a flag war, not only for each building-level organization, but also for every flag area, and the flag war is currently going to carry out the task, which is not what a flag owner should do at all. ”

"So, I came to the conclusion that the watchmen were lying, and they were withholding information about the owner of the 45th Banner. As for why it should be concealed, it is very confusing. It wasn't until today that I figured out that the only explanation for being able to make the top brass of Act 7 do this twice in a row is that the forty-five banner owners also suffered an accident. ”

Jiang Ming and Lin Han were particularly shocked, they didn't expect Chang An to be able to get such a guess closest to the correct answer with these clues, which made the two of them secretly think that they had underestimated this person in the past, Chang An had no bottom line, at least they couldn't see it.

Chang An smiled, then patted Jiang Ming on the shoulder, and said, "Of course, these are just my guesses, not true." You are just ordinary martial artists, how can it be related to the powerful people, right? I may have thought too much. ”

Jiang Ming was silent, but his heart was quite moved by Chang An's words.

Chang An said: "Actually, I prefer to do something mutually beneficial and win-win, if the two of you know something I don't know, you can trade with me." Act 7 Everything is easy, it's just a piece of news, and the two of you will naturally think about it, not to mention, I have something in my hands that you think is worthwhile. ”

Jiang Ming's eyebrows were cold, and he said horizontally: "I don't think you have anything else worth trading, these are the only things we can tell, where we went that night, I think we can find out through some means, so many people died in the Wenfu, it is impossible for us to experience two things at the same time." ”

Chang An smiled, bowed slightly, and said, "Okay, then I'll leave first, I said, both of you have their own thoughts, I won't participate." ”

When the words fell, Chang An left with a retinue, leaving Jiang Ming and Lin Han in a daze.

After a long time, Jiang Ming said loudly: "Are you shaken?"

Lin Han's eyes were gloomy, and he said, "A little." ”

Jiang Ming said: "Me too, it seems that I still underestimate this Chang'an, I can't hide from everything in my eyes." ”

The two were silent again.

Lin Han said: "Actually, what I'm worried about is not this matter, but what Chang An said, he has something in his hand that we are worth trading, if it is the immortal medicine you need, or what kind of fragment, will you change it." ”

Jiang Ming said: "That is undoubtedly a tiger skin, I woke up from the moment the old tea refiner died, the people in the seventh act are like devils, if they are just trading goods, but they are trading human lives." ”

Lin Han saw his excited appearance, and said with a wry smile: "I just asked if you would, your disguised god is too outrageous, although you can deceive others, but you can't deceive me." ”

Jiang Ming said: "Okay, I do know how to trade, but I shudder at this kind of scheme. Even if it is a thousand troops, even if it is a strong person in front of me, I have never done this, the last time was the pressure of autumn, and this time I still can't do anything. ”

Lin Han said: "In this case, we should have more plans, although we are not as good as Chang An in terms of wisdom, but we can make up for it in terms of numbers." ”

Jiang Ming said: "That matter, we can sell it to Chang An, but we must ask him to provide a sufficient price, and when we can't choose, if it is normal, just treat it as if we never knew about it." ”

Lin Han said: "That's what it means, I'm just afraid, Chang An is very familiar with us, take out something we can't refuse, maybe we can only compromise, and sending this hot news out is not necessarily an absolute bad thing." ”

Jiang Ming nodded and said, "Let's do it first, now that this has happened, it seems that it is still the same person, I don't know what he wants to do." ”

They knew that the person who killed the owner of the 45th Banner of the Land was Kan Xuan, the owner of the 50th Banner of the Land, and he was also the upper echelon of Chang'an. And this time, Jiang Ming still had a certain guess, thinking that it was still him who made the shot.

Hao and Miao followed Chang'an and walked towards their residence.

Hao said: "Landlord, I don't know if they never told the news?"

Chang An said: "No, if they know the secret, they naturally understand their own situation, if there is no absolute external stimulation, they are unlikely to reveal the news, whether it is for their own safety, or something else, they will just say nothing." ”

Hao said: "Then what should I do? The inspector seems to be already blockading the whole city, and the flag battle is estimated to stop because of this, so ......"

Chang An said: "The flag battle will not stop, but we must know who the murderer is." Although Jiang Ming didn't admit it, I was already able to confirm that they knew about it. As for that thrilling thing, I just happen to have it. ”

Hao and Miao frowned deeply, this matter has always made it difficult for them to sit on pins and needles, if they really use this matter to make Jiang Ming and Lin Han compromise, this is what makes them the most uncomfortable. They are not that hard-hearted, and they still have feelings from time to time.

It seems that the owner of Chang'an has made up his mind. ”
