Chapter 11: The Moon is Dark and the Wind is High
After practicing boxing, Jiang Mian boiled a large pot of meat porridge, and since practicing martial arts, his food has also grown day by day.
The silver was squandered by him, and there was no income yet, but even if he drank porridge, Jiang Mian did not treat himself badly, and in the thick pot of white porridge, the neatly cut pieces of meat were quietly squeezed together, and the fragrance was strong.
"The little girl next door hasn't been here for a few days." Jiang Mian muttered as he ate.
Qin Yue has already had a lot of people who admire his poetry, and those who can't find him revolve around her, and they can't get rid of it.
Jiang Mian is not in a hurry, literati naturally have the style of a literati, and they can only talk about the price after drying them for a few days, and he still understands the truth of hunger marketing.
There was a more important thing at the moment, which had been weighing on his heart for several days, like a poisonous snake that would bite at any moment, and it always made him restless.
In prison, he thought eight points clearly, and the gossip in the neighborhood in the past few days after he was released from prison also made him more sure of his judgment.
After eating, it was already completely dark, and he took advantage of this time to gain a little more experience in Kaishan Boxing.
In his previous life, people like him were called the King of Volumes.
He is a master of time management by not missing any time that can be used.
At that time, a black shadow touched out of the Jiang family's courtyard and quietly swept towards the east of the city.
The black shadow is naturally Jiang Mian, and Da Zhou has no restrictions between Fang and City, and after passing through this residential area, he will arrive at the West Market.
His meat stall was unexpectedly overturned to the ground, and a cold light flashed in Jiang Mian's eyes.
Hide in the darkness and continue to touch east.
To the east of the West Market is another residential area, with a large bluestone slab floor and a wide avenue that can accommodate three horse-drawn carriages.
The residence is also different from the one where Jiang Mian lives, it is mostly a large courtyard with three entrances, and there are two stone lions in the town at the door, which is extremely magnificent.
Jiang Mian followed the planned route and walked to the door of a mansion.
In the night, the door with peeling vermilion paint was tightly closed, two wind lamps were hung at the gate and swayed in the wind, and a plaque was hung on the door, with the words Zheng Zhai written on it.
It's in place.
Jiang Mian jumped up like a cat lightly, climbed over the courtyard wall and entered the mansion.
+1 over the wall
Jiang Mian once again sighed at the power of the panel, and truly everything can be experienced.
Tiptoeing across the courtyard, Jiang Mian came to a brightly lit room.
He used his fingernails to cut through the thin layer of paper paste without making a sound.
This is another use of the meat cutting technique, the ultimate control of power.
Through the freshly cut gap, I could vaguely see two people sitting at the table in the room.
Zheng Xiguan, a butcher who opened several butcher shops in Lin'an City, and Hou Xi, the leader of the three gangs of the Fish Dragon Gang.
The ancient butcher can be different from the general market vendors, the meat price is high and the profit is considerable, this is a very good business, can open several shops in Lin'an City, sure enough, this person and the Fish Dragon Gang are greasy.
Huang San's trouble for himself is estimated to be instructed by Zheng Xiguan, but although the butcher has a little money, how can he have anything to do with the leader of the Jianghu sect?
"Brother Hou, didn't you say that kid would definitely die in prison, why did he come out intact now?"
Hou Xi's face was a little gloomy: "Cao Dian said that there is a big man from the north to protect him, and the other party is very big, I'm afraid we can't afford to provoke him." ”
"That kid has such a backer?" Zheng Xiguan's face was full of disbelief.
"The news shouldn't be wrong, didn't you see that kid jumping around." Hou Xi's face was full of sadness, although the big man has not expressed his position until now, but Huang San has gone to find trouble with that kid, and the Fish and Dragon Gang has nothing to do with this matter.
Saying that, the eyes that looked at Zheng Xiguan gradually became indifferent, if it weren't for this old butcher, how could the Fish Dragon Gang provoke Jiang Mian for no reason.
But the old thing gave birth to a great son. Zheng Zhihe, with outstanding cultivation qualifications, was favored by the great Confucians of Shangyang Academy, and left home to practice since he was a child.
It is also because of this reason that the Ichthyosaurus Gang has been willing to help Zheng Xiguan use some means to get rid of competitors over the years.
A family of Confucian disciples, not to mention the Fish and Dragon Gang, even the prefect has to be a sycophant.
"Since that kid surnamed Jiang dares to kill Huang San on the street, then sooner or later he will come to us for trouble, we might as well ......" Zheng Xiguan made a killing gesture.
"Brother Zheng, are you crazy? That kid can come out of prison when he enters the prison, which shows that the person behind him is indeed not small. The more Hou Xi thought about it, the more he regretted it, and said with a bitter face.
"Humph! No matter how powerful Mr. Qi is? Zhihe is Mr. Qi's closed disciple, I see what kind of bull ghost and snake god will jump out if I kill that kid. ”
"This ...... That's just as well. Hou Xi's face softened a lot.
Jiang Mian heard it clearly outside the door, just because his business was good, this Zheng Xiguan wanted to kill himself, and he didn't know how many people had been killed over the years.
I still want to kill him.
"I see which of you and I will die today." Jiang Mian's heart was extremely cold, and his killing intent burst out!
Zheng Xiguan and Hou Xizheng were talking when there was a sudden knock on the door outside the house.
The knock on the door was not light or heavy, and it was very rhythmic.
The hour had passed, and it was the middle of the night, and someone knocked on the door.
The two glanced at each other and exchanged several glances.
The people outside the door seemed to have seen that the door had not been opened for a long time, and the knock was a little more urgent.
Wow!
In the dark and lonely night, when they heard a hurried knock on the door, both of them panicked inexplicably.
Hou Xi touched his waist and took out a short knife.
His eyes were cold, and he pouted towards the door.
Zheng Xiguan understood what he meant, and he was also very confident in Hou Xi's strength, so he got up and opened the door with courage.
Then the knock on the door suddenly disappeared, as if it had never been there.
Zheng Xiguan slammed open the door.
There was a clang, and the door panel slammed against the wall.
It was pitch black outside, and there was no one in the room.
Hou Xi held the knife and followed closely behind Zheng Xiguan, seeing that no one frowned, the hand holding the knife tightened a little, and his palms were already wet with sweat.
has practiced martial arts for more than ten years, although he has not entered the martial arts, he is also a master in the rivers and lakes.
Hou Xi's heart was beating fast, through that layer of flesh and skin, as if it was about to jump out, Zheng Xiguan's breathing in front of him was also very heavy, and in the middle of the night, the clothes on the two of them were tightly attached to their bodies.
The heavy gasps of the two were suddenly mixed with a soft sound.
Like ...... Coming from behind.
Hou Xi turned around suddenly, only to see a black shadow coming.
After a loud bang.
Hou Xi flew out upside down, fell to the ground with a snap, and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood.
After knocking down Hou Xi, someone kicked Zheng Xiguan in the stomach.
Without waiting for Zheng Xiguan to speak, the black shadow picked up an inkstone from the table in the room and smashed it several times on Zheng Xiguan's head, who had fallen to the ground.
After a few muffled snorts, Zheng Xiguan was dead.
+1 Killing Skill
Strength +1
The black shadow was naturally Jiang Mian, and Jiang Mian got up after the information appeared in his eyes.
Grabbing the blood-stained inkstone, he walked towards Hou Xi on the other side.
