Chapter 21: Is It Worth It?
Gentle breathing begins to rapid.
The sound of a heartbeat also began to rapid.
"Jiang Chen, open the door!" A familiar voice came.
"Xin Tou'er? What are you doing here! Jiang Chen yawned, and the sound of lifting the quilt and getting out of bed sounded in the room, hiding the short blade in his sleeve, and said vaguely, "Is something wrong?" ”
The moment he opened the door, he took a step back.
Through the starlight, it was discovered that it was Xin Liang.
A message appeared above the other person's head.
"Something is wrong!" Xin Liang's forehead was sweating, panting slightly, "The landlord is angry, call everyone over, hurry up and follow me, and notify the others." ”
"The landlord is angry? Isn't he right behind you! Jiang Chen's face was full of doubts.
"Behind me?" Xin Liang was stunned, and turned his head around, but he suddenly reacted halfway through, but unfortunately it was too late.
Bang......
Jiang Chen's punch landed on his heart, directly sending Xin Liang flying into the courtyard.
Xin Liang raised his head, opened his mouth and spurted out a line of blood, and his face suddenly turned pale.
But seeing that Jiang Chen had already jumped over, the short blade in his hand was shining and he attacked again, he turned to the side and dodged at the same time, and shouted puzzledly: "Jiang Chen, what are you doing?" Why are you attacking me? Stop! ”
Burst......
Jiang Chen didn't pay attention to it at all, and the knife missed, but he kicked Xin Liang up with all his feet.
Stepping to follow-up, a volley punch, from top to bottom, fell on the opponent's stomach, directly fell, and the earth trembled three times.
Xin Liang's eyes, nose, ears and mouth all spurted blood, and he fainted as soon as he rolled his eyes.
Jiang Chen stepped forward and unloaded the other party's shoulder joint, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
I felt something, and as soon as I raised my head, I saw Liu Lao standing up from the room next to him, jumping over, and landing on the ground, almost without any sound.
"Why would you attack him?" Liu Lao asked curiously.
ignored Xin Liang's life or death.
"Old Liu!" Jiang Chen saluted respectfully and smiled, "It's very simple. First, in the middle of the night, even if something big happens, it is impossible for the landlord to summon me, let alone let him come and deliver the message; Second, I just had an accident here last night, and he came tonight, isn't this the three hundred taels of silver here? Third, I brought back the assassin last night, and he died just after handing him over, although his reason is very good, saying that he is a dead man, and he will commit suicide as soon as he wakes up, but it cannot be ruled out that he killed people and killed his mouth; Fourth, if he is really fine, I will apologize honestly, and there is no big loss anyway. ”
Of course, in addition to these, it is the information that appears above the other person's head.
And when he once retraced the picture of the fox demon, he found that Xin Liang was a spy placed in the Sky Survey Tower by the Marquis of Zhongyong.
Last night, the other party asked for an assassin, but he didn't refuse, because he expected that the other party might kill him, so that he could be regarded as exposing his feet, so that he could find out the other party in the future.
Even Jiang Chen himself couldn't have imagined that this person would come tonight.
Name: Xin Liang
Qi Refining: 4th Floor (Sunday: 182)
Refining: Zero Weight (9)
Alchemy: Tier 0 (5)
Talents: None
Sin: 8 (Level 1)
"Okay." Liu Lao nodded with satisfaction, "You take it back, it's still the old rule." ”
"Wait!" Jiang Chen hurriedly stopped the other party and hesitated, "Liu Lao, the owner of the fox demon, the assassin last night, and Xin Liang tonight, it's already obvious, don't you make a move?" ”
"We can act without evidence; But sometimes, it's hard to move without evidence; Sometimes, even if there is evidence, you have to wait for an opportunity. Liu Lao said, flew up to the room, and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.
Even this opportunity can't wait for a lifetime.
More often, right and wrong, black and white, are not so clear.
Jiang Chen thought, looking at the night sky from afar, his black eyes were extremely bright.
Mentioned Xin Liang and looked at it, looked at it carefully, there was no danger to his life, and he was still in a coma.
I opened the door and walked out.
Jiang Chen performed a wind-chasing step, and his speed was very fast, like a swimming fish in the night.
Seeing that he was about to reach the Sky Survey Tower, Xin Liang coughed a few times, opened his mouth and spit out blood clots, and his breathing was suddenly short.
"Jiang Chen!" His voice was weak.
"Xin Tou'er, why?" Jiang Chen slowed down.
"Jiang Chen, why?"
"Xin Tou'er, it's not interesting to say this again."
"Well, how can you let me go? If you put forward conditions, I will meet you. ”
"For example?"
"For example, money, exercises, pills, beauties, etc., it's all fine! Actually, I'm not too much at fault, am I? This world is not black and white, and if you let me go, in addition to getting the actual benefits, I have also been seized by you, and I can use it for you in the future. ”
"Then he killed me with his backhand."
"Jiang Chen, don't be rash. Last night's assassin, at this time, you should understand what kind of power I have behind me, and it really shouldn't be too easy to deal with you. On the one hand, there is the money exercise elixir, which can even help you rise step by step, have a bright future, and become a real master; On the one hand, you will lose your life at any time, no, you will definitely die. Tell me, how do you choose? Speaking of which, the Sky Survey Guard is just a dog of the imperial court, just that little bit of silver, is it worth working hard? ”
"Not everything is black and white, but there is right and wrong, and it doesn't really matter. The important thing is to have your own persistence, your own bottom line, and your conscience. By the way, Xin Tou'er, do you have a bottom line, do you have a conscience? ”
Xin Liang was asked silently.
Entering the Sky Survey Tower, he woke up Hei Yi again, he looked at Jiang Chen carrying Xin Liang, his eyes narrowed: "Jiang Chen, what's the matter?" ”
Jiang Chen told the matter again.
"The landlord did not call. I was very puzzled by the assassin last night, there was no trace of poison in his mouth at all, and I was suspicious, good fellow, I will act again tonight. Hei Yi bared his teeth, and was reflected by the starlight, "I didn't expect that there would be a traitor in our Sky Survey Tower." And you, Jiang Chen, are really decisive enough, otherwise, if you hesitate for a while, it will be another ending. ”
"yes, I'm scared when I think about it now." Jiang Chen smiled bitterly, "If I believe it, go back to the house and get a knife, and he will give me a blow from behind; Or when you go out of the yard and lock the door, you will also expose your back; Even if I get up and open the door after I am woken up, he will shoot directly and so on, I will not end well. ”
"That is, you, if you are someone else, can be this fate. Careful heart and decisive action saved you from disaster. Hei Yi exclaimed, but then admonished, "Obviously, this is revenge against you, you have been living in the Sky Survey Tower for a while, and you will go back when the worms behind the fox demon are found out." ”
"Okay, you go and rest first, I will interrogate him overnight to see why he betrayed many brothers, betrayed the Sky Patrol Tower, betrayed justice, and betrayed my emperor!" Heiyi said and walked in.
Jiang Chen's eyes blinked.
This hat is covered, and there will definitely be no psychological obstacles in torture.
He did not return home, but went to the dormitory.
After a brief wash in the water room, I cleared my bladder inventory and went back to the house to rest.
Lying on the bed and checking your own information, there has been a lot of change.

The cultivation attribute of the fourth layer of Qi cultivation absorbed two more points, increasing from one hundred and one to one hundred and three, which was obtained from cultivation during rest.
Arrest Xin Liang, and get a 10% reward for practicing qi for first-level crimes, which is 18 points. Let the 'Qi Point' directly increase to 80, which is enough to cultivate for a period of time.
The good deeds also increased a little, but he immediately used them.
Check out Xin Liang's events in the past month.
There's nothing to hesitate about.
One: On September 13, he threatened to inform Yan of the recent change in the landlord.
Second: September 15, go to the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong.
Third: On September 26, he received news that he would capture Jiang Chen alive and send him to the Hou Mansion at all costs.
Jiang Chen jumped up from the bed, revealing a look of shock.
The second and third were just that, which was expected, especially the second one, which he had seen in the memory of the fox demon,.
But what about the first one?
Threaten Xiang Yan and probe the secret of the landlord?
"He's a two-and-five-boy too?"
Jiang Chen was upset.
The room in the dark of night was even darker.
