Chapter 17: The Death of Ling Si'er
After Ling Xiao finished washing, he didn't go to eat, and returned to Ling Yu's side to see Ling Yu.
As soon as he entered Ling Yu's room, he found that only Xiang'er was in the room, but Ling Yu on the bed was missing.
"Xiang'er, where did Yu'er go?"
"Childe said that he was fine, he wanted to go out for a walk, and asked the city lord not to look for it!"
"What? Going for a walk? Can his body stand it? He said he's going there, take me to find it? “
"No need, I'm here, Father!"
At this time, Ling Yu came from the outside world, and his movements were quite free, as if he was seriously injured.
After Ling Xiao saw it, his heart was a little relieved.
"Father, please sit down, let's have a good talk."
"Okay."
"Xiang'er!"
"Yes."
"Make two cups of tea for my father and me!"
"Yes, Childe!" After speaking, he retreated sensibly.
"Father, there's one thing I'd love to ask you."
"What's the matter, tell me."
"How did you get to this city lord, when I was half-asleep last night, I seemed to hear you say that we are not the real clansmen here?"
"Why do you ask about this?"
"I'm just curious, I want to hear about my father's time."
"There's nothing to say, but if you want to know, I'll just tell you about it."
As Ling Xiao said last night, he was not from Star-Moon City, but came here sixteen years ago with his pregnant wife.
Because of his skills, he was quickly appreciated by the elders here, starting with the captain of the small team, and gradually entered the core management.
Because of his stability and the trust of the elders, none of the elders' sons and nephews could compare to Ling Xiao.
On the issue of choosing the city lord, the elders of that group could not put forward a convincing son and nephew.
In the case of inconclusive arguments, it was proposed that Ling Xiao be replaced for the time being, until the eldest son and nephew of the elder appeared a long-awaited candidate.
Who would have thought that Ling Xiao, the city lord, has been in generation for so many years.
It turns out that he and his father are both outsiders, and no matter how much credit they make, they can't become the true masters of Star-Moon City.
So why do you do all your best for this city?
The better we are, the more we will be feared, doesn't this father understand?
No wonder the people here, as soon as they saw that they were useless, they desperately stepped on themselves, and the ones in the Mara Gobi Desert are not good things!
"Yu'er, what's wrong with you?"
Ling Xiao saw Ling Yu clenching his fists, and there seemed to be fire in his eyes.
"Is it worth it to work for them?"
"What?" Ling Xiao didn't understand.
"Didn't you think one day, they'd kick you away?"
"I've thought about it." This time Ling Xiao understood.
"Then why don't you leave?"
"Where can I go? The world is so big, and the place where you and your mother are is my home, so I won't go anywhere. “
"Understood."
Ling Yu was sincerely moved, this is a father's responsibility, he wants to be with them, guarding him and his mother.
"What does Father think, how about being the true master of Star-Moon City?"
"Nonsense! Whimsical, this Star Moon City doesn't belong to me in the first place, what do I want it to do? “
Ling Yu knew that his father was an upright person, and this kind of thing of seizing the city would never be done.
Anyway, from now on, Ling Yu will no longer discuss things with Ling Xiao, his conduct is okay in a civilized society, and it can't be eaten in the current world of the jungle!
City Lord?
Who has ever seen such a city lord who is so restrictive at every turn?
It seems that he has to help his father and become a real city lord.
………………………………
Three days later, another bombshell news came out that Ling Si'er was found dead at home.
Before he died, he dipped his finger in blood and drew a 'four' on the ground, and no one understood what it meant.
According to the autopsy, the specific time of Ling Si's death was the night of the battle with Ling Yu, and he killed him!
Ling Si'er had no father or mother, and lived alone in a small courtyard, relying on tasks in exchange for Xuanshi to make a living.
He has always hoped that one day he will be able to live a good life, so he desperately befriended the three elders, hoping to get a chance to get ahead.
Huangtian lived up to his wishes, and his sincerity impressed the three elders and began to send tasks to him.
Among them, there was a task to win over Ling Yu, but the mission failed and was reprimanded by the three elders.
Therefore, he was quite resentful towards Ling Yu.
This time, the young man in charge found him and said that Ling Yu was willing to challenge a Xuan Qi level 3 master, so he immediately agreed.
Because he wanted to take revenge, revenge on Ling Yu back then, which made him embarrassed in front of the three elders.
In the fight with Ling Yu, he showed no mercy to his subordinates in every move!
If Ling Xiao hadn't appeared in time, he would have inevitably broken Ling Yu's dantian and made him unable to cultivate Xuan Qi again.
He was called by the three elders, but the two sentences of reprimand were over, and the three elders did not have anything to say, so they dealt with him heavily.
Ling Si'er knew that this was because the Third Elder was also holding a grudge against Ling Yu.
Because of Ling Yu's categorical refusal, they were also very unable to get off the stage.
Because Ling Si'er successfully took revenge on Ling Yu, she was in a very good mood, bought wine, bought vegetables, and went to celebrate happily.
Back at home, when he was halfway through the wine, Ling Si'er found that a black-clothed masked man had come in at some point, and he had woken up half of his wine!
Xuanqi level 4!
This was the last bit of information that entered his mind, only to see a flash of white light in the other party's hand, and the cold light of a dagger went straight into Ling Si'er's heart, killing him with a single sword!
Then the man in black left without looking back.
With the last bit of strength, Ling Si'er used his fingers to write a four-character character, meaning a master of the fourth level of Xuan Qi, so as to remind the elders to look for the murderer in this direction.
If these causes and consequences are understood, people will definitely say that the biggest suspect in killing Ling Si'er should be Ling Yu.
Because, revenge for the defeat on the stage is his biggest motive for killing!
However, how could a person at the level of Xuan Qi kill a master of level 4 of Xuan Qi head-on, and there was almost no trace of a fight in the room, I am afraid that the battle could be solved with one move.
Moreover, that night, no one had ever seen Ling Xiao's father and son come out of the gate of the Ling family.
People are seriously injured and lying in bed asking for more blessings, how can they have the time to come out and kill people?
Just when the errand clerks searched Ling Si'er's room, someone found the storage bag supervised by the Xuancao Hall under the bed in Ling Si'er's inner room!
This is a major discovery, how could this important thing appear in Ling Si'er's room?
Could it be that the death of the Xuancaotang overseer has anything to do with him?
………………………………
The Great Elder called Ling Xiao again, first asking about Ling Yu's injuries, and then talking about Ling Si'er's killing.
Ling Xiao was very surprised, he wanted to kill Ling Si'er, but he wouldn't really do it anyway.
"What do you think?" The Great Elder asked Ling Xiao.
"Assuming that Ling Yu is not injured, he is the most suspicious and the least!"
"How?"
The Great Elder could never have imagined that Ling Xiao would be the first to point the finger at his own son...
