"You are conspiring with horse bandits to disregard human life, and you deserve to be punished!"

Fang Zhibai was furious, his eyes widened angrily, staring at the shopkeeper who was kneeling on the ground in front of him, eager to strangle the other party to death with an iron hand.

Hearing the angry shouts coming from above his head, the shopkeeper trembled, and hurriedly defended: "We are also forced to be helpless, if we don't make this move, the people in our town will be killed by horse bandits." ”

"When you appeared on the street, I warned you that the town was not very peaceful, and asked you not to enter the store, but you insisted on going your own way..."

He argued with reason, and said with a grim face: "We don't want to hurt others, but we don't have a choice. ”

After a moment of silence, Zhang Tao opened his mouth and asked, "Do you know what those horse bandits will do with the corpses after killing someone?" ”

There is a reason for everything, since the horse bandits do not kill people for money, but only for corpses, then there must be some ulterior motives in this.

Cultivating demonic skills? Sacrificing demons? Or is it a corpse?

As long as the reasons for this are investigated, then we can survive the battle......

"This... It is not clear what to do with the corpse, but it is rumored that it seems to be a sacrifice to the river god. ”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw that the people in front of him had no intention of killing him, his hanging heart suddenly relaxed.

"Why? In detail. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Tao suddenly became interested.

Immediately, he brought a wooden bench and sat in front of the other party with a giant sword, listening attentively, looking forward to the other party's introduction to the information about the river god.

"It is rumored that there has been a manifestation of the river god in our Wuhe Town, calling for wind and rain, so it's not amazing!"

As soon as the river god was mentioned, the shopkeeper immediately came to his senses, and the fear of the shopkeeper's tragic death was instantly forgotten, and he said: "It is said that the Tsing Yi River is the incarnation of the dragon god, and the river god of the five rivers is the devout disciple who guards the rest of the dragon god... Until the day when the dragon god returns. ”

"Dragon God? River God? ”

Hearing the other party's specious explanation, Zhang Tao couldn't help frowning slightly, and his mind was churning, instantly linking these rumors with his discovery of the spiritual vein at the bottom of the Tsing Yi River.

Whether it is the terrifying ghost at the bottom of the Tsing Yi River or the horse bandit snatching the corpse here, there must be an inextricable relationship.

He vaguely felt that perhaps the horse bandits had snatched the corpse to sacrifice to the terrifying ghost.

After all, he saw the scene of the terrifying ghost stretching out his hairy hand and dragging people into the water, and he remembered it vividly.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tao immediately realized that this matter was very involved, and it was not something he could participate in, and it should be handed over to the Sky Survey Division in time to let someone more powerful deal with it.

Otherwise, he would have taken the liberty of getting involved, and there was a good chance that he would once again put himself in a desperate situation.

"The little ones know so much, and please spare my life!"

When the shopkeeper saw that he had said everything, he immediately kowtowed like pounding garlic, and promised with tears in his eyes: "The little one will never harm anyone again, and I will ensure that An An is a person and does things honestly." ”

"Go to the back kitchen and get some meat for my pet to eat..."

Hearing this, Zhang Tao waved his hand and motioned for the other party to go to the back kitchen with bare flowers.

"Yes, yes, yes."

The shopkeeper hurriedly got up from the ground and ran to the back kitchen of the inn with quick movements.

In the next second, there was a miserable wail in the back kitchen, and the sound of sharp teeth chewing was terrifying.

After a while, Xiaohua's mouth was full of blood, and she walked out of the back kitchen with satisfaction.

"Zhang Tao, you can leave him alive!"

Seeing this, everyone's expressions tightened, and their eyes looking at Zhang Tao became extremely jealous, avoiding snakes and scorpions.

Fang Zhibai was a little unbearable, and persuaded him: "Your murderous intent is too heavy, that Xiao Er has already changed his mistake and corrected it, you don't have to kill him at all." ”

After a pause, he added: "What's more, he is also a hard-working person who is forced to be helpless..."

"Can you change your mistakes?"

The corners of Zhang Tao's mouth rose, and he sneered lightly, and a disdainful smile appeared on his face.

He pointed to the big meatballs scattered on the ground, and said with a gloomy gaze: "Do you know what kind of meat this is?" ”

"Whatever he says, you believe?"

As he spoke, he stepped on a large, plump and juicy meatball, and the oil splattered, revealing a transparent and hard object.

The meaning is self-evident!

"Nails?" Someone screamed.

Immediately, the lobby resounded with retching.

"Do you know why I killed him?"

Zhang Tao's eyes were cold, and he said coldly: "Because this inn is a black shop, the back kitchen is full of life, and all kinds of resentment lingers. ”

"I'll go and rest first, and we'll leave here early tomorrow morning."

He stood up, touched Xiaohua's smooth head, and walked towards the second floor of the inn.

Walking to the top of the stairs, he suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at Fang Zhibai, and explained, "The matter here is not something we can participate in, while the incident has not reached the worst situation, we should ask the Sky Survey Division for help in time." ”

"We're already scared tonight, shouldn't we get out of here?" Someone asked puzzled.

"Staying here is the safest thing to do."

Zhang Tao was calm, he walked to the stairs step by step, and explained as he walked: "At this time, the street has been shrouded in a dead and ominous atmosphere, and the fire jackdaw I summoned can't adapt to it inside. ”

"It's not an easy town... It's not as safe as it seems. ”

With that, he pushed open an empty guest room and walked in, and the figure quickly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Old Fang, this person is too cold-blooded and ruthless, we'd better not take him to the Sky Survey Division."

After Zhang Tao left, there was a group of surveyors with complicated expressions left in the lobby.

"Yes, at that time, he would rather watch Xiao Lu being killed on the merchant ship than come to the rescue!" Someone complained.

"His strength is obviously very strong, and he can completely let those people in the Wealth Gathering Chamber of Commerce throw a mouse trap, so as to save our lives, but he can't save him when he sees death, and even urges the other party to kill us quickly!"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately resonated with all the Sky Survey guards present, and they were very dissatisfied with Zhang Tao's cold-blooded indifference.

"How could such a cold-blooded and ruthless person allow him to join the Sky Survey Division as he wished?"

"Otherwise, God knows how many of the brothers who teamed up with him would die... He's a selfish man who doesn't deserve to be my brother at all! ”

The resentment they had accumulated in their hearts exploded in an instant at this moment.

At that time, their lives were hanging by a thread, their eyes were full of fear and despair, and when they saw Zhang Tao's appearance, the flame of hope ignited in their hearts again.

But who knows, the other party's indifferent words are like a basin of cold water, instantly extinguishing their hope of survival.

"Since you can't save yourself from death, then why are you standing in front of me at this time?"

Fang Zhibai's brows tightened, his face showed anger, and he said in a deep voice: "You keep saying that he condemns him for being cold-blooded and ruthless, so do you know how many times he has saved me and Zhao Baihu?" ”

"Even Lin Baihu of the Demon Slaying Hall asked for his help!"

After a pause, he continued: "Do you know how much danger he took to collect the body of his dead brother? ”

In the end, he became emotional, glared at everyone, and said, "No, you don't know at all! ”

"You can't understand what Zhang Tao is doing, because your realm is too shallow, your vision is too low, and your pattern is too narrow!" The more he spoke, the more agitated he became, foaming at the mouth.
