Bai Lao Liu looked at Wang Biao's appearance of daring to be angry and not daring to speak, and felt that it was a little ridiculous for this person to bully the soft and afraid of the hard, thinking that the purpose of his coming here was to beat the water dog, so he naturally wanted to seize the opportunity to ridicule it vigorously.

"I'm sorry, Du Lao Er is not a good thing, he has done a lot of bullying men and women on weekdays, and none of the people in Xuanyang don't look forward to this person returning to the West as soon as possible, now that God has finally opened his eyes, we naturally want to celebrate." ”

In response to the words of his own leader, the crowd behind Bai Lao Liu erupted in laughter.

Wang Biao's neck has been around, only to feel the blood surging all over his body, and he was about to rush out again, but he was pulled by the people around him for the second time.

The person who grabbed him pulled his sleeve hard, and he was still shouting: "Big brother, big brother, we heroes don't suffer immediate losses, don't suffer immediate losses!"

What Xiao Xuan didn't know was that since the second leader of the Southern Gang was killed, thousands of members of the Southern Gang had poured out. He didn't know that before Wang Biao and his party came to his small courtyard, the entire south of the city had been disturbed by this group of gangs.

They uphold the principle of preferring to kill mistakes and not let them go, a poor sour boy who has no backing, if he is captured, he obviously will not get a good end. For the Southern Gang, a teenager will be caught if he is caught, and he will be beaten if he is beaten.

What he didn't know was that from last night to this moment, in just two hours when he was asleep, countless martial arts incidents had occurred in the streets and alleys of Xuanyang City. Du Lao Er of the Southern Gang was assassinated, and the Northern Gang, which has many eyes and ears, naturally got the news as soon as possible, and they will not let go of the opportunity to vigorously attack their rivals.

And now, another large-scale fire fight is about to be staged.

Xiao Xuan was sure that the death of the Du Er family would not have anything to do with him, and he also knew that the people of the Northern Gang did not appear here because the other party liked to be kind or unhappy. At this moment, all the attention of the two gangs, one south and one north, was on each other, and if he didn't know what he should do, he would have wasted all his years of living in Xuanyang City.

Yes, when the two largest forces in the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty were preparing to fight for the death, a different voice appeared.

Xiao Xuan walked between Bai Lao Liu and Wang Biao, first bowed to Bai Lao Liu, who was surprised, and then waved at Wang Biao, who was staring at him, and said softly: "You two fight first, a small role like mine is really not suitable for participation, so I'll go first." ”

After saying this, before both sides reacted, under the gaze of nearly 100 people, a poor young man walked out with a swagger.

"Come, let Jean, heroes, give me a let. ”

Unlike those Jianghu people who make a living from fighting, once Xiao Xuan makes up his mind to do something, he will cherish his time and abide by his own standards. He remembered that he was about to assassinate a court official, so he had to prepare from the moment he made his decision.

Opportunities are only given to those who are prepared, and it is already difficult for him to remember which celebrity said this.

Xiao Xuan knew very well that for the two behemoths of the Southern Gang and the Northern Gang, he was just an inconsequential small character. He had no intention of knowing what would happen between the two gangs in the courtyard after he left, because he had more important things to do.

Bai Lao Liu watched the young man out of the crowd, and was a little surprised by his calm and calmness that did not match his age. But the next moment, his train of thought was interrupted by a fist flying from the opposite side.

With a snap, a bamboo pole jumped up violently, and his mouth was still howling: "Wang Biao, you dare to do it first." ”

In a small three-story building half a mile away from the courtyard, someone was silently watching everything that was happening in the courtyard.

The young man who brought news to Xiao Xuan not long ago was also a woman in black.

The woman in black is surnamed Qin, her name is Yue Ran, and she is the deputy head of the Divine Imperial Prison. The young man was his subordinate, and he was also the Divine Imperial Supervisor Li Zongze, who was trusted by Admiral Shangguan Yu.

Regarding the murder that happened last night, the divine imperial eunuch got the news as soon as possible.

The so-called first time naturally refers to before the Southern Gang knows about it.

The death of the second person in the Southern Gang may be a big event for ordinary people. However, no matter how feared the gangs that were powerful over the people, even if the two gangs were stacked together, they could not attract any interest from the gods.

However, this incident that originally belonged to the rivers and lakes in Xuanyang City received Qin Yueran's attention.

The young deputy head of the Divine Imperial Prison sat quietly in the small building, looking at the nine-leaf locust outside the building and was a little distracted.

This kind of nine-leaf acacia was transplanted from Tianhai County many years ago when the first emperor was still in power, and it can be seen in many places in Xuanyang today. This acacia can become a tree in 50 years, the crown is very large, the branches grow nine leaves, the color is purple, it does not fall all the year round, there are often people outside Kyoto who come only for a view, it is an indispensable scenery in Xuanyang City.

The younger Commander didn't think the locust leaves were anything to look at, but he didn't dare to bother.

Li Zongze looked at this beautiful woman in black and knew that she was by no means as absent-minded as she saw on the surface, but thinking about something that she couldn't think of with her own ability.

Among the gods and eunuchs with many men, Qin Yueran is an extremely special existence.

Her origins are still a mystery, but this has not prevented Admiral Shangguan Yu from trusting her. Five years ago, when she joined the Divine Imperial Prison as a woman, she was just an ordinary spy. However, it was only two years later that he was promoted to commander.

Another year, he was promoted to the rank of Grand Commander.

Half a year ago, as one of the two deputy heads of the Divine Imperial Eunuch, he became the right and left hand of the Shangguan Admiral.

No one knew how she did it, so there were a lot of doubts within the Divine Eunuch. Those who make these voices may be motivated by envy or envy, but either way, the wave of doubt is quickly slashed away by a sword.

That sword is called Chonglou, and it is Qin Yueran's Horcrux sword.

Until now, many people may still question some things about her, but there are only two points, which have never been suspected.

She's strong.

In addition, she is a beauty.

Li Zongze had not been in the Divine Imperial Prison for a long time, but he had already heard of this famous deputy head of Qin. He had also had doubts about a woman's abilities, but these doubts dissipated like smoke after he became Qin Yueran's direct commander.

Under the void, they are all ants.

How could an ant question a great cultivator who had turned into nothingness?

"The subordinate believes that the boy is not suspicious. ”

Li Zongze straightened up, stood respectfully beside the beautiful woman, and whispered.

"The murder of Lord Shangshu's son-in-law has been investigated for a while, and we have eliminated a total of hundreds of suspicious objects, including this teenager. ”

This teenager is a small village in Jizhou City, Xiaoshan County, who came to Kyoto two years ago and has been working as a helper in an inn in the south of the city, with no relatives in Xuanyang and little contact with others. ”

"The subordinates had talked to him personally before, and it seemed that this young man was calm and calm among people of the same age, but according to his subordinates, he didn't have the strength to kill a Distraction Realm cultivator. ”

At this point, he paused, remembering the most important thing.

"My subordinates can be sure that he is not a cultivator. ”

Hearing this, the woman who was looking at the locust leaves finally withdrew her gaze, and her eyes as quiet and deep as a lake were full of doubts, "Are you sure?"

It's not that she doesn't believe the subordinate in front of her, but she habitually asks questions.

Her voice was soft, soft, but unmistakable.

Li Zongze bowed his head respectfully and said, "The subordinates can be sure." ”

Qin Yueran didn't continue to speak, she thought of something else.

She didn't care about the young man named Xiao Xuan, even though she noticed that he was there when he had captured the fugitives from the Zongren Mansion earlier. But neither then nor at this moment, she did not see any suspicious emotions in the eyes of the teenager.

If a fifteen-year-old boy could have deceived her, then she would have died long ago under the flying sword of some cultivator.

However, as some investigation progressed, she found some more unrealistic possibilities.

To see if those possibilities could come true, she even came here herself.

Now that she is sure that there is no problem with the young man, she naturally will not think about it again. She cares more about the shadow that has been flying in the sky than a poor boy.

After becoming the deputy head of the Divine Imperial Prison, she knew that in the past many years, there was this shadow in all parts of the Great Xia Dynasty. It is related to the deaths of many people in the government and sects, but under the full investigation of the divine imperial eunuch, they have never found the slightest clue about this shadow.

Unlike Lord Shangguan's troubled attitude, the most powerful woman in the Divine Imperial Prison had an unusual interest in inquiring about those behind the shadows.

Recently, with the death of the second son of the military department, she has felt that she is a little closer to that shadow, which makes her feel a little happy.

It's a real fun.

She was chaste by nature and never liked to live in any shadow. The cases that the divine eunuch had to deal with every day piled up like a mountain in the yamen, but she had never been interested in certain things.

Now that she had the opportunity to slash through that shadow with a single sword, she had no reason not to be happy.

Li Zongze stood there, seeing the smile on the corner of the beauty's mouth, he couldn't help but tremble, but he was so strange.

He had the same feeling as Qin Yueran, and he also didn't think that a young man in the market was qualified to receive too much attention from the Divine Imperial Eunuch. All he cared about was a gust of wind.

That gust of wind is the death of Du Laoer.

The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings.

He could intuitively realize that there might be a storm on the rivers and lakes, and said in his heart that although the two gangs in the rivers and lakes are really nothing in the eyes of the imperial court, if the two gangs in the north and south really fight, even the Admiral will feel a headache, how can you be so relaxed, Lord Deputy?

Xiao Xuan didn't know that he had almost attracted the attention of a master of the Divine Imperial Eunuch's Void Realm, and after leaving the small courtyard, he walked on the way to the market in the west of the city.

During his long years as an Assassin, he got used to having a knife by his side.

He'd used many knives before, and the most recent one was the one he'd used the longest. But when the target was the figures in the upper echelons of the Great Xia court, it was obvious that a single knife was no longer enough to kill the other party.

After all, in the face of heavy guards, he couldn't always have a chance to get a foot in front of a royal historian like he did last night. In order to cope with some possible scenarios, he also needs some weapons that can cause considerable damage at long distances.

For example, a bow.

Even some hidden weapons.

There were so many cultivators in Xuanyang, Kyoto, that Great Xia needed to set up a special institution like Si Tianjian to govern these people. Even excluding these cultivators who can easily cause chaos, ordinary martial arts practitioners can be seen everywhere in the capital.

Where there are people, there will be strife, and a group of short-tempered warriors will gather together, and some incidents of death or injury will occur at any time. If both sides are in a state of bare hands, it is fine, even if the sword is in hand, it is not a big problem, it is a state that can be controlled. However, once people are allowed to carry long-range damage weapons such as crossbows and bows, the consequences will be uncontrollable.

Therefore, weapons such as bows and arrows were strictly forbidden to be carried on the streets in the laws of the imperial court.

If there is any place to find a bow and some arrows in Xuanyang City other than the army, Xishi is the best choice.

Xiao Xuan looked at the bustling crowd in front of him, and sighed with emotion: I don't know how many of these people are ready to kill, and how many will be killed by others?
