Chapter 223: Suspicion and Speculation (4,005)

In the city of Fuzhou, in the private room of a restaurant.

A tall and thin man with a scorched face walked into the private room.

"Xu Gang, I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Behind the table, a man in an embroidered gold brocade robe, shaking a fan in his hand, said slowly.

"I wonder if the contents of the letter sent to my residence by Yang Gongzi are true?" Xu Gang said with a serious expression.

Syllable!

Yang Jun put away the fan in his hand violently, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.

"Of course it's true!"

"As long as you do something for me, I can remove the wanted Celestial Division from you. ”

"Without the wanted of the Heavenly Division, you don't have to be a Sky Surveyor, and you go to various regions every day to kill ghosts!"

Xu Gang, a martial artist in the late stage of the visceral period, is a three-grade bronze medal surveyor of the Heavenly Survey Division.

He sat down slowly, looked at Yang Jun suspiciously, and didn't speak for a long time.

A sneer appeared on Yang Jun's face.

"You doubt I can't do it?"

Xu Gang shook his head.

"No, I believe that this matter should not be difficult for you, Young Master Yang. ”

Yang Jun's father, Yang Shi, is the commander of the Fuzhou Heavenly Division, maybe he doesn't have a word to revoke the wanted ability on his body, but he definitely has the ability to eliminate the wanted on him by other methods.

For example, the surveyor Xu Gang did not repent and changed to evil, and the Fuzhou Heavenly Division sent a master to arrest him, but he desperately resisted arrest and was killed on the spot.

As long as Yang Shi reported this matter to the General Director of the Heavenly Division, the wanted notice on him would naturally be eliminated.

At that time, he only needs a fake death to regain his freedom.

"I'm just curious about what Yang Gongzi wants me to do?" Xu Gang said.

Eliminating his wanted is not a trivial matter, Yang Jun can't cheapen him for nothing, what he wants to do will be very dangerous!

A fierce glint flashed in Yang Jun's eyes and asked.

"Have you received the next mission assigned to you by the Sky Survey Division?"

Xu Gang frowned and said.

"In the city of Lizhou Su Shicheng, a strange one with the strength of the late stage of the visceral period was born. The Celestial Survey Division asked me and another third-rank Celestial Surveyor to set off tomorrow to rush to Lizhou Sushi City and work together to kill that Yin Ghost. ”

Xu Gang told him the task given to him by the Sky Survey Division, and after he finished speaking, he asked as if he was aware of it.

"Young Master Yang, what you asked me to do is related to this task?"

"Yes, you're smart. ”

Yang Jun sneered.

"What I asked you to do, to be precise, it has something to do with the three-rank Sky Surveyor who will set off with you tomorrow!"

"But that Sky Surveyor offended Young Master Yang?"

Xu Gang's heart was relieved, and a murderous killing intent appeared in his eyes.

If it was just to kill the Sky Surveyor who would be with him tomorrow, it would be much easier.

For the sake of freedom, and in order not to live this life of nine deaths, what is it to kill a third-grade surveyor.

Yang Jun shook his head.

"It's a bit complicated, and it doesn't have to be you to kill that Sky Surveyor, it depends on the situation whether you want to kill him or not. ”

"What's the situation?" Xu Gang looked puzzled.

"The Sky Surveyor has a knife in his hand. ”

"A knife?"

Yang Jun nodded and said quietly.

"A sword that could be a peerless weapon. ”

"Peerless Divine Soldier?!" Xu Gang looked shocked.

"How can a third-grade Sky Surveyor have such a treasure as a peerless divine soldier in his hand?"

Xu Gang was shocked in his heart, some martial saints didn't necessarily have a peerless divine weapon in their hands, how could a third-grade Heavenly Surveyor cultivator have a peerless divine weapon?

"You don't need to know about this, all you need to do is find a way to confirm whether the knife in his hand is a peerless divine weapon. ”

"If it's confirmed that the knife in his hand is a peerless weapon, I want you to kill him and bring the knife back to me. ”

Without waiting for Xu Gang to speak, Yang Jun said coldly again.

"You'd better not think about anything you shouldn't do, if you run away with a knife, not only will our people chase you, but someone else will hunt you down. ”

"I can guarantee that you will never survive if you escape to the ends of the earth!"

Facing Yang Jun's threat, Xu Gang's expression tightened, and he asked instead.

"Who is the other person in Yang Gongzi's mouth?"

"That third-grade Sky Surveyor, who can hold a peerless divine weapon, does he have anything to do with a certain martial saint?"

"Don't worry, if he really has something to do with the Martial Saint, how dare I fight his idea. ”

"But don't take chances, the person behind him is not something that you can afford to provoke as a small cultivator, only I can protect you under the other party's hands. ”

Yang Jun said.

"I understand. Xu Gang nodded.

Who doesn't want the peerless divine soldier, but he has to take his life, even if the peerless divine soldier lets him get it, he can't protect it, but he will lose his life because of it.

He just wanted to use this incident to eliminate the wanted people on his body.

"If that Sky Surveyor isn't a peerless weapon......

"Then don't do it, this matter has bothered me for a long time, as long as you help me confirm this matter, I will remove the wanted from you at that time. ”

Yang Jun said in a deep voice.

"That Sky Surveyor also has the strength in the late stage of the Cultivation Period, you don't take it lightly. Yang Jun reminded Xu Gangdao.

The last time he sent Cheng Jin and Wang Wu to intercept and kill Li Qiu halfway, they were both killed by Li Qiu, and it is not surprising that he should have the strength in the late stage of the cultivation period.

Xu Gang slowly stood up, a trace of yin poison flashed in his eyes.

Although he and that person are in the late stage of the recuperation period, there is not much difference in strength.

But he can sneak up by surprise.

The man probably wouldn't be too wary of the Sky Surveyors on the mission with him.

If the sneak attack can't kill the other party, then he doesn't have to live.

"Yang Gongzi, don't worry, I will definitely complete this matter smoothly, I only hope that Yang Gongzi will keep his promise by then. ”

"Of course!"

Yang Jun said with a smile.

"Farewell!"

Xu Gang arched his hand, turned around and walked out of the private room.

"Li Qiu ......"

Looking at the direction where Xu Gang disappeared at the door, a cold smile appeared on Yang Jun's face.

That time, after he was severely reprimanded by his father Yang Shi, he waited for more than a month until Yang Shi was angry before he brought up the matter again.

Yang Shi didn't want to offend Ouyang Xuan, because he was afraid of the martial saint who owed favors to Ouyang Xuan behind him, but there was no absolute in everything.

If Li Qiu's sword was really sure that it was a peerless divine weapon, then they could completely snatch that knife and offer it to a martial saint who did not have a peerless divine weapon, so as to befriend him.

Ouyang Xuan's revenge, there will be that martial saint to solve it for them at that time.

They can also get a Martial Saint as a backer!

If it was finally confirmed that the knife in Li Qiu's hand was not a peerless divine weapon, they would have no reason to attack Li Qiu, and they would not offend Ouyang Xuan because of this.

It was precisely because of this that Yang Shi agreed to Yang Jun's proposal after careful consideration.

They had already figured out which martial saint they had dedicated that sword to, and they only had to confirm whether the sword in Li Qiu's hand was a peerless divine weapon.

Yang Shi used some connections to let Xu Gang and Li Qiu carry out the task of slaying the weird together.

No Sky Surveyor would refuse to be exempted from being wanted.

If they weren't afraid of being arrested by the Celestial Division, where would they have become a Celestial Surveyor and risk their lives to go around killing ghosts.

The next day.

The sun is warm and the breeze is light.

In front of the Celestial Survey Mansion.

Li Qiu and Xu Gang met on horseback.

"Xu Gang. ”

"Li Qiu. ”

The two rode on their horses and introduced themselves to each other.

Xu Gang's gaze swept over Li Qiu, with a bow and arrow hanging next to the horse's belly, and a knife behind his back.

This knife should be the one that Yang Jun suspected to be a peerless divine soldier in his mouth.

Xu Gang's expression moved slightly, he withdrew his gaze, and showed a friendly smile at Li Qiu.

Li Qiu's eyes moved slightly and nodded in greeting.

He had always been keen on others, and he noticed that Xu Gang glanced at the knife behind his back, but he didn't pay attention to it.

Because he also glanced at the sword in Xu Gang's hand.

It is normal for a general martial artist to care about what weapons the other martial artist uses when he sees another martial artist.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while and embarked on the road to Lizhou Sushi City.

On the road, Xu Gang seemed very talkative, but Li Qiu was silent, and the two rarely communicated.

Four days later, the two arrived at Lizhou Sushi City.

Although the two did not run all the way, they came on horseback.

But Lizhou was already close to Fuzhou, so it only took them four days.

Stay in front of Stone Castle.

"Brother Li, you can be here, I will go forward and ask them to go out of the city to meet us. ”

Xu Gang said with a smile.

Then he struck his horse and went forward to speak to the soldiers who defended the city.

Li Qiu looked at Xu Gang's back, his eyes moved slightly, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

When they first met, Xu Gang looked at his Yetan knife twice, and he didn't pay attention to it at the time.

But along the way, he found that Xu Gang seemed to be very interested in his Yetan Knife, and looked at it secretly from time to time.

At a restaurant dinner, Xu Gang asked to see his knife, but when he refused, he actually offered to have a fight with him at a roadside break not long after.

Although Xu Gang's expression reaction at that time was very natural, as if it was a whim, even Li Qiu couldn't see that he had any other purpose.

But he had secretly looked at the Yetan Knife many times before, which had made Li Qiu suspicious.

In his opinion, Xu Gang was changing his method to see his Yetan Knife.

Li Qiu was puzzled why Xu Gang was like this.

Because when he asked Ouyang Xuan to cast the Yetan Knife before, he specially told the appearance of the knife not to be too public, just be ordinary.

Although the blade of his Yetan knife is inky black, and it is clear at first glance that it is made of strange gold and iron, when the knife is unsheathed, there is nothing strange about it from the appearance alone.

Then why did Xu Gang seem to know that his Yetan Knife was not ordinary from the beginning?

He wondered if Xu Gang had anything to do with Yang Shi's father and son.

He has never forgotten that Yang Jun, who once sent people to intercept him halfway, and his father Yang Shi.

He was only waiting for him to be strong enough before taking revenge on him.

Li Qiu decided to be on strict guard against Xu Gang next.

If you have the chance, wait until you enter the birthplace of that strange one, and then test it again.

If there is a problem, kill Xu Gang inside.

It's nothing to kill the wrong one, and most of the surveyors are wanted by the imperial court for the most heinous crimes.

Li Qiu looked at Xu Gang's back, and a touch of indifference and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Beating a horse and coming to the city of Sushi City, Xu Gang frowned, and his face was gloomy and ugly.

Things didn't go as smoothly as he thought.

This Li Qiu not only has a dull personality, but also seems to be very wary.

Until now, he didn't say that he had tried the sharpness of the knife, and he hadn't even seen the true face of the knife.

"Looks like we'll have to wait until we enter that weird birthplace......

Xu Gang's expression moved slightly, and he thought in his heart.

He didn't believe that after entering the birthplace of that weird one, when he fought with that weird one, Li Qiu still didn't pull out his sword and unsheath it.

When he was sure that the knife was indeed a peerless divine weapon, he would find an opportunity to kill Li Qiu!

A cold killing intent flashed on Xu Gang's face.

"Listen, the people on the city tower, we are the Sky Surveyors sent by the Heaven Survey Division, and we tell your city lord to quickly lead people out of the city to greet you!"

Xu Gang raised his head to the people on the city tower and shouted.

A moment later, Sun Zhang, the city lord of Sushi City, and Lin Tong, the general of Yangwu, led a group of officials out of the city to greet them.

"Sun Zhang and Lin Tong have seen two adults, but I don't know the names of the two adults?"

Sun Zhang was wearing an official uniform, with a medium stature and a gentle and elegant temperament.

Lin Tong was wearing armor, tall, dignified and powerful, but his face was pale and bloodless, as if he was injured.

Sushi City is one of the rare big cities in Lizhou, and the city lord Sun Zhang and the Yangwu general Lin Tong are both third-grade officials.

When you see three products, you can't talk about any visits.

However, Li Qiu and Xu Gang were the masters sent by the Heaven Survey Division to support Sushi City, because although they were equal in rank, both of them were very respectful to Li Qiu and Xu Gang.

Li Qiu and Xu Gang took out the bronze medal representing the identity of the Sky Surveyor and showed it to everyone.

"My name is Xu Gang. ”

"My name is Li Qiu. ”

The two put away the bronze medal and said to Sun Zhang.

"Xiaguan meets Master Li and meets Lord Xu. ”

The big and small officials behind Sun Zhang and the two of them, after knowing the names of Li Qiu and the others, bowed down and said in unison.

"Two lords, I have prepared a banquet in the city lord's mansion, let's enter the city. ”

"Good. ”

When I arrived at the city lord's mansion in Sushi City, I was at the banquet.

"City Lord and General, can you tell us about that weird thing?"

Xu Gang was the first to speak and asked about strange things.

"The sooner we kill that weird, the sooner we can regain peace in Sushi City. ”

When I entered the city, there were very few people on the streets along the way.

It was enough to see the panic caused by that strange one in Sushi City.

Xu Gang had never been so active in killing ghosts, and he didn't delay it in the past.

This time, it was because the sooner he was sure that Li Qiu's sword was a peerless divine weapon, the sooner he could eliminate the wanted on his body and regain his freedom.

Sun Zhang and Lin Tong looked at each other, and Lin Tong coughed, his voice a little weak.

"Let me tell the two adults about it. ”

"A few days ago, a restaurant in the north of the city accidentally caught fire and burned Xiao Er to death, and after the death of Xiao Er, he turned into a strange and wanton killing man the next night, and the people of several streets were brutally murdered by him. ”

Li Qiu's eyes moved slightly, and he wrote down this information.

Strange abilities are generally somewhat related to the cause of death.

This strange ability may have something to do with fire or smoke.

Many of those who died from the fire were not only burned to death, but many were suffocated by smoke.

Lin Tong continued.

"After the incident, I led people into the strange birthplace and tried to kill the ghost. ”

"But that monster is so powerful that it can easily seriously injure me, and the rest of the people are not its enemies, and I escaped with a few people who are still alive. ”

"According to my estimate, that weird strength can at least match the late stage of the Cultivation Period, and this is still when it doesn't know martial arts!"

Li Qiu's eyes were fixed, he didn't know martial arts, and his strength could still match the martial artists in the late stage of the cultivation period.

The strength of this strange ghost body may be very close to that of a blood coagulation stage martial artist.

"Has General Lin ever seen that strange ability?" asked Li Qiu.

Lin Tong's face was ugly and he shook his head.

"Nope. ”

"It's really my weak strength, that weird didn't use his ability, and he easily seriously injured me. ”

Li Qiu looked thoughtful.

Lin Tong's strength was low, and he couldn't attract that weird release ability, but this has also revealed a lot of information.

First of all, this weird is not the ability to distort the ghost body like the pig's head weird.

Secondly, this weird is not like the white-clothed weird he killed, and it can take ability as a normal attack ability.

This shows that this strange ability can't be released from time to time, it belongs to the kind of means that presses the bottom of the box, and it will only be released when it encounters a strong enemy or a critical moment.

"General Lin, how is that weird sanity?"

Li Qiu finally asked.

Forest Passage.

"Not of high sanity, not like a beast, but like a madman. ”

At this time, Xu Gang on the side, with a strange glint flashing in his eyes, said with a smile.

"Brother Li Qiu, I've already asked about it, I think we can try to enter this weird birthplace and kill it. ”

Li Qiu's eyes condensed slightly and nodded.

"Good. ”
