The place where the body was found was ten miles west of the city, a place called Chishuipo.

This trading house rented a small spaceship, which had crashed into the forest north of Chishuipo, and a group of fifteen people from the trading house were all wiped by a sword, and they lost their lives before the spaceship crashed, and the goods on the ship were turned into a mess, at least two percent were lost.

"This has not happened in the Big Night City for twelve years, this is not only a provocation to my Big Night City, but also will affect the reputation of the Big Night City, you must know that the Big Night City is one of the main routes for trade between Zhongzhou and Nanling, and there are tens of thousands of merchants coming and going every day, if they suspect that the Big Night City is not capable of eliminating the robbers around them, they all start to worry about their lives, and the status of the Big Night City will be greatly threatened. ”

The voice of the leader of the general was cold, he had already introduced his name on the road, Li Qiu, one of the twelve commanders of the Great Night City, there were three thousand elite soldiers under his command, according to the rules, today happened to be in charge of the patrol outside the Great Night City, Su Qi and a few people had already said their identities on the road, with the endorsement of the Chen family, Changliushan and Jianmen, Li Qiu was indeed a lot more polite, but he still hoped to invite them to Chishuipo to have a look.

Su Qi and Chen Muqi did not refuse, because the two of them were also very curious, they had only been separated from Xilin Commercial Bank for more than half an hour, how could these people say that they were dead?

"I heard that the power of the Qianhuang City is expanding rapidly? Like the Great Night City, the Qianhuang City is also located at the junction of Zhongzhou and Nanling, and it is closer to the Eastern Wilderness, and the Great Night City is worried that something will happen and be pressed by the Qianhuang City, right?" Chen Muqi held her hands behind her back, the red daze gently flapped in the wind, and her right foot in black deerskin boots was stepping on a stone, and she was looking at the small river under the Chishui slope in the distance.

"That's right, in fact, when I saw these corpses, my first reaction was that Qianhuang City did it. Li Qiu said frankly, "Qianhuang City has been wooing the merchants of the Great Night City for the past ten years, and has used a variety of methods, many of which are unpopular. ”

"Since you came to us to prove that you don't think it was the Qianhuang City that did it," Su Qi raised his eyebrows, "What made you change this idea?"

"Corpses. Li Qiu raised his hand and pointed to the woods, "Go over and have a look?"

The name of Chishui Slope comes from a small river in the west of the slope, the river is light red, from the west, in front of the Chishui Slope to the north, extending to this forest, the more and more thin it is, after leaving the forest, it has become a gurgling stream, the woods are full of tall red scale wood, this kind of tree is a kind of spirit tree, the bark is very similar to red fish scales, can be used to refine low-grade magic weapons, the juice can also be mixed into spirit ink, some value, but not big.

The woods were sparse, the ground was full of pale red leaves, the ship crashed into the south of the woods, and when you walked into the woods from the Chishui slope, you could see a large wooden ship that was diagonally inserted into the ground, the mast and sails were broken, the formation was dim, the cabin had a big hole, almost broken in two, creaking in the wind, bags of cargo were scattered on the ground, and there were many barrels and chests in the deeper part of the cabin, most of which were broken.

You can clearly see the traces of someone turning over.

There were already a lot of soldiers guarding the wooden boat, and there were a few monks who were investigating near the wooden boat, Li Qiu led a few people to approach, he pointed to the big hole in the cabin, "There are a total of fifteen people in the Xilin Trading House, and the leader of the business is named Yu Hong, that is, the bald merchant you have seen, he does not often appear in the Big Night City, but is specifically responsible for the trade between Ximo and Nanling, and there is another resident Xilin Trading Company in the city, I have sent someone to call him, and it is estimated that he will come over soon." ”

Su Qi and the others got into the cabin from the big hole, there was chaos here, there were rune papers, magic weapons and Nanling's special grains and fruits everywhere, some wooden barrels were filled with spiritual ink, but at the moment they had flowed all over the ground, completely scrapped, and some boxes still contained jewelry, although they were turned over and scattered, and a lot was taken away, but there were still a lot left.

The corpses were in the front of the cabin, some leaning against the bulkhead, some lying on the stairs, and some lying on their backs in the cabin, most of the faces of the corpses were not frightened, some were dazed, some were calm, and there were still faint smiles on the two corpses that fell opposite.

"The killer is very powerful, he cut the throats of these ten people with a single sword, almost cutting off their heads, so these people were killed on the spot," Li Qiu said, "This kind of swordsmanship can only be used by monks of the Empty Ming Realm." ”

Su Qi nodded, these ten people were all mortals, but they were physically strong, and there were six or seven people with swords on their bodies, it was not easy to kill them in an instant.

The murderer must be a sword cultivator above the Void Realm.

"What about the other five people?" asked Chen Muqi.

"On the deck," Li Qiu walked up the stairs, the sloping deck was difficult to stand firm, and several people flew up, looking at the five corpses that had been piled up together below the deck, "These five people were also killed in an instant, except for the master Yu Hong, the other four people are all monks, one Kong Ming, three Shen Nian, it should be the Xilin Trading House paid a lot of money to pay for worship, specifically responsible for protection, this method is very common in the Yuan Shang Trading House, because most of their goods are of high value." ”

Chen Muqi snapped his fingers, and the five corpses all floated, and like the corpses in the cabin, there was a deep scratch on their necks.

The identities of these four monks are also interesting, two are Buddhist cultivators and two are Taoist cultivators, a rather eccentric combination.

Li Qiu seemed to see Su Qi's thoughts, and said, "Xilin Trading House was born in the Western Desert, and has a good relationship with many Buddhist temples, and they also do business with Buddhist temples, buying some rare natural treasures for them, and hiring some Buddhist temple disciples is very beneficial when dealing with Buddhist temples." ”

"One move to wipe out the Sky Ming Realm, it's amazing," Chen Muqi licked her lips, a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes, she turned her head, "Great Sword Cultivator, tell me what you think?"

"Building the Divine Sword Cultivation," Su Qi looked left and right, his divine sense expanded, and there was still a little sword intent left between heaven and earth, "The sword intent is very unique, and it is a fast and ruthless path, which is extremely common in Zhongzhou, and there are at least seventy or eighty sects with hundreds of swords that have taken this path." ”

"In other words, can't you see the calendar?"

Su Qi shook his head, "If it's someone who knows each other, maybe you can still see a little, but this is a stranger, even if I remember his sword intent, I don't know his identity." ”

Chen Muqi thought for a moment, "Cultivating the Divine Sword, the bandits near the Great Night City don't have this kind of strength, right?"

"Of course not. Li Qiu shook his head.

"Please use a Divine Sword Cultivator, it costs a lot of money, but for Qianhuang City, it should only be a small amount of money," Su Qi looked at Li Qiu, "Based on these corpses alone, why do you think it wasn't made by Qianhuang City?"

"Because they don't dare," Li Qiu said coldly, The two cities are important places for material mobilization, not long after the start of the war, the envoy of the Tianji Pavilion has already warned us that these cities are not allowed to fight in secret, a few days ago, the elder of the Xingyue Sect was killed, and the Tianji Pavilion was even more annoyed, and warned again, although the Qianhuang City's methods are despicable, and bold and reckless, but they only dare to make small moves, please build a god realm to attack my big night city caravan, the movement is too big, once discovered, the Tianji Pavilion will be furious, this kind of bet has exceeded their bearing. ”
