Chapter 53: Assassination

Wang Mu stood still and did not move.

But when he came back to his senses and saw this scene, he secretly apologized in his heart.

Hurriedly stepped forward to help pick up the steamed buns on the ground, and Wang Mu couldn't stop apologizing.

The Mai beggar looked at the steamed buns on the ground with a pity on his face, and slowly picked up all the steamed buns.

Wang Mu saw that many of the steamed buns had been stained with ashes, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I didn't pay attention when I walked just now." ”

"That's it, how much are these steamed buns, I'll pay you, can you go buy some new ones?"

Hearing Wang Mu's words, the beggar nodded: "Okay, a total of ten yuan." ”

Ten Wen?

When Wang Mu heard this, he generously took out a tael of broken silver from his belt and handed it to the man: "Here, this is a tael of silver, I will make amends to you, so you don't need to look for it." ”

After shoving the money into the other person's hand, he turned and left.

And the beggar didn't say much, and after accepting the money, he slowly left with the steamed buns.

But as soon as he walked not far away, Wang Mu suddenly frowned, and subconsciously touched his waist.

was shocked to find that the mustard seed bag that was originally hanging there was gone.

Lost?

No way!

Thief!

Wang Mu instantly thought of the sackcloth beggar just now.

From the time he left the Patrol Division to the time he came out.

The only person who has ever come into contact with him is the beggar!

Almost instantly, Wang Mu was sure of this.

Good fellow, this thief actually took his mustard seed bag!

Thinking of this, Wang Mu suddenly became angry.

A dignified Qi refining cultivator was actually stolen by a thief and stole the mustard seed bag, which is still such an unpopular method!

If this spreads, he will become the laughing stock of many Xiuzhen families and monks in Baishui Town from now on!

Thinking of this, Wang Mu turned around without hesitation and chased in the direction where the beggar had left just now.

At the same time, his eyes flashed with purple aura, and his five senses were opened to the extreme.

Follow the few traces that still remain in the air.

The figure moved like a phantom, and in a moment, I saw the gray shadow in front of me in the flow of people on the street!

Wang Mu's face sank, and he quickly chased after the other party.

However, what made him a little strange was that the beggar seemed to notice the abnormality behind him, and in a hurry, he ran at a fast speed.

But in the blink of an eye, he slipped into a side alley.

Seeing that the other party disappeared, Wang Mu was in a certain shape, stopped at the mouth of the alley, and his footsteps paused slightly, but he did not immediately step into the alley.

Because he sensed something was wrong after a little thought.

If that beggar was just an ordinary person who had not cultivated.

Unless you are a master of the rivers and lakes, you can't walk so fast.

Don't look at the acceleration from the other party to the entrance of the alley, it is only a few hundred meters away.

It is impossible for a normal ordinary person to have such a fast speed.

But if the other party is really a master of the rivers and lakes, how can he be so embarrassed to be a beggar?

Thinking of this, Wang Mu squinted his eyes and looked at the empty alley.

When things go wrong, there must be demons.

Could it be ...... That beggar is a bait?

Does anyone want to deal with themselves?

Ordinary mortals would never hold grudges with themselves.

Then, the rest of the monks who can rush to themselves must be monks.

But he didn't offend any monks or families in Whitewater.

In the early years, those families that were hostile to the Wang family had already carried out an assassination on him back then, and after the ancestor of the Wang family broke through the late stage of foundation building, those people would not fight to tear their faces to carry out another assassination.

Moreover, now that Wang Mu has grown up and joined the Patrol Division, it is even more impossible for those families to use this method anymore.

If you insist on saying that there is a grudge, the only one who has a grudge against him is Chen Feng, the elder of the Chen family.

But how dare the Chen family do it to themselves?

Knowing that you are a member of the patrol team.

Liu Yao was also present during the confrontation that day.

If something really happened to Wang Mu, it was impossible for Liu Yao not to contact the Chen family.

The Chen family can't be so stupid.

So who else is there?

"Di Renjie said that if you eliminate all impossible options, the remaining options, no matter how outrageous they seem, may be the closest to the truth."

"Those who can have a life-and-death grudge with me, in Whitewater Town, in addition to all the above, there is only ...... Fog Cult! ”

Thinking of this, a trace of surprise flashed in Wang Mu's eyes.

recalled that he had subdued the Chen family disciple at the beginning, and he died soon after.

According to what he knew, after the monster possessed him, the person ceased to be the person, but became the monster itself.

In other words, it was not the children of the Chen family who died indirectly under his hands, but the trickster.

The Monk of the Fog Cult has the ability to summon strange creatures.

Maybe that trick has something to do with the Fog Cult.

Maybe they made it or summoned it.

In either case, will the death be blamed on the head of the Fog Cult?

At that time, the disciple of the Chen family was subdued by himself, but many people saw it.

Moreover, when he was in Liangshan Village, he killed the eighth-layer Qi refining monk and took his mustard seed bag.

Could it be that there is some spell on it that can mark the breath that he is not aware of?

Now that he has been discovered by the other party, he wants to assassinate himself to avenge his companions?

If that's the case......

Wang Mu immediately became alert when he thought of this.

While he was enumerating all of these possibilities, the outside world had only passed a breath or two.

In the eyes of outsiders, Wang Mu may have just paused slightly.

But in fact, he had already carefully analyzed this matter in his mind.

Whether he thought too much about it or not, Wang Mu decided to focus on prudence.

After all, the victim of the poisoning incident five years ago is still alive and kicking in front of him, reminding him all the time.

Thinking of this, Wang Mu took out an old mustard seed bag again.

This mustard seed bag was exactly what he had gotten from the eighth-layer monk of Qi Refining in the first place.

Slightly injected with spiritual power, a golden armor talisman appeared in Wang Mu's hand.

That's right.

He was carrying two bags of mustard seeds at the same time.

Although the important things on his body were kept in his mustard seed bag, Wang Mu still habitually kept one hand.

Keep a series of spare items in the old mustard bag in case he accidentally loses the mustard bag between battles and puts him in a difficult situation.

Unexpectedly, this back hand is used today.

Activate the golden armor talisman and hide it in your coat, and take out a poison-avoiding pill and hold it in your mouth.

Wang Mu took a few steps back, and then rushed into the alley in a wild manner.

"Where is the thief running!"

The moment he entered the alley, he deliberately shouted in his mouth to paralyze the other party.

Sure enough, as soon as Wang Mu rushed into the alley, a black shadow suddenly burst out of a fork in the alley like lightning.

A fierce killing intent almost rushed to the face.

In an instant, Wang Mu was approached.

However, Wang Mu, who had been prepared for a long time, did not panic at all.

I saw his right hand swing forward, and the Qingyun Sword in the cuff immediately roared out.

At the same time, his left hand clasped a golden armor talisman for backup, and he did not retreat or hide in a desperate posture!

In the eyes of others, Wang Mu didn't care about the other party's attack at the moment, as if he wanted to exchange his life with the other party!

This ruthlessness, even Zheng Mingwu, who suddenly killed the killer, was slightly stunned.

Soon, however, his face also showed a fierce look.

Who's afraid of whom?

Is he still afraid of a little monk at the fourth level of qi refining, who is only a ninth layer of qi refining!!
