The blood on the old woman's forehead stained the snow-covered ground bright red, and then gradually faded.

Shen Yu's move was too decisive and too weird, it was really beyond the understanding of ordinary people, and several big men on the side stood still.

Over the years, they have killed too many people, and they have long been accustomed to seeing dead people.

Because this itself is a small trick they designed, taking advantage of people's sympathy, and then killing people and taking money, the most important of this trick is the old woman who has died.

She is a martial artist of the ninth layer of the first sense realm, and there are countless heroes and martial artists who have died in her hands.

It's just that such a murderous warrior was actually punched to death.

Seeing this scene, everyone's faces turned pale, and they were already frightened.

Because the person who can kill the martial artist of the First Sense Realm must be a legendary cultivator.

The next moment, someone took the lead in running to the back of the alley, and then the other three people also reacted and fled in all directions.

Shen Yu casually popped out four clear airs, and saw a screaming sound coming from the air.

Then, the sound of people falling to the ground was heard in the dark alley, and in an instant, everyone was dead.

Poof.

The only seven-foot man who didn't run away knelt down softly, and he moved back desperately, trying to get away from the man in front of him, but his legs were weak, and only some pale yellow droplets fell from his crotch.

He didn't die because he was so frightened that he didn't run away.

I saw this man say in a trembling voice: "Rao... Spare my life... The captain of South River City is my uncle... I...."

The sound stopped abruptly.

Shen Yu found that there was another person, so he waved his hand casually, and the man lost his breath.

There was no sound in the whole alley.

Shen Yu turned to look into the distance, and a little girl covered in dirt and a cloak squatted in the corner.

Shen Yu walked over.

The little girl looked up at Shen Yu, did not shout or run away, and looked at him indifferently with a small face full of cracks.

She knew that this man might kill herself, too.

Shen Yu squatted down and said, "Are you hungry?" ”

The little girl nodded slightly.

Shen Yu grabbed the money bag on the old woman's body with his right hand, and then handed it to the little girl.

"You won't be hungry anymore."

...

Shen Yu continued to walk deeper into the alley, eventually stopping in front of a dilapidated mansion.

The size of this house is so large that it must have been inhabited by a large family before.

There is a slanted plaque at the door of the house, and the handwriting on it can be faintly distinguished from countless cobwebs.

Shen Mansion.

The Shen family in Nanhe City, the head of the family, Shen Yuanzhi, is a famous squire.

Every time there is a disaster year, they will open a warehouse to release grain to help the people around them, and it is a common thing to build bridges and pave roads, the Shen family is a scholar, and the head of the family is approachable, which is in Nanhe City, even some ordinary ruffians and bullies dare not provoke such people.

It's just that more than ten years ago, the Shen family was killed overnight for some reason, and more than 20 people, including those Jianghu warriors who invited the courtyard, all died.

This kind of tragedy even alarmed Liyang, the capital of the Great Departure Country.

It is rumored that it was done by some monsters in the Southern Barbarian Demon Domain, and some people say that it was done by some cultivators who came and went without a trace, and there are different opinions.

It's just that many years later, this case is still an unsolved case.

Shen Yu stood quietly in front of the steps of the gate, and there was an unprecedented wave in his calm eyes.

The main thing for him to go down the mountain this time was to come back here to take a look, after all, he had grown up here since he was a child, and Nanhe City was not far from the Dao Sect.

Shen Yu stepped forward, gently removed the almost rotten seal, and then slowly pushed open the door that had been sealed for several years.

The screeching sound of the door breaking the silence of the night, Shen Yu walked in.

The yard was overgrown with weeds, some taller than a person, and occasionally a few scrawny rats could be seen passing through the eaves.

Shen Yu casually walked through many places, gardens, rockeries, pools, bedrooms, and then came to the lobby.

There is a plaque hanging in the middle of the lobby that reads Mingde Weixin.

Shen Yu waved his sleeves to clear a staircase and sat down casually.

"I've been gone for a few years, and all these years I've been wondering whether to be grateful or to hate you."

Shen Yu said to the empty courtyard: "That one thing, you did something wrong. ”

Bang!

The crooked plaque suddenly exploded, shattering into neat pieces of wood and falling to the ground.

Shen Yu gathered his hands casually, and then a tiny flame rose, and in the end, a fire was lit on the dark courtyard.

Shen Yu's eyes swayed in the firelight, with tranquility and sadness.

A crisp sword roar sounded, and then a cold woman appeared beside Shen Yu.

Jing Qing glanced around and said, "Where is this?" ”

Shen Yu said: "Nanhe City, the Shen family's mansion. ”

"It's lifeless, there's endless anger, and there's a powerful demonic aura on the other side of the river farther away, and this place is not good."

Jing Qing frowned slightly and said, "It's far worse than the Dao Sect Mountain Gate." ”

Shen Yu said: "Of course, but we will only stay here for a day or two before leaving." ”

"Do you have something on your mind?"

Jing Qing and Shen Yu were connected to each other, and naturally felt the young man's low mood.

Shen Yu said lightly: "Some trivial matters, there is something wrong with the mood, just temper it." ”

Jing Qing sighed lightly, "Sometimes you are even more boring than those old men in the Three Realms. ”

Shen Yu thought for a moment, and then said, "Yes, but interesting people are coming soon." ”

Late at night.

Footsteps could be heard outside the lobby, and a figure emerged from the darkness.

He was a young man, dressed in a ramie robe worn by the ancestors in ancient times, with wheat-yellow skin and a muscular body, and every step seemed to contain the power of heaven and earth.

He glanced casually at the lobby, then smiled lightly and said, "Hello, I'm here to kill you." ”

...

Shen Yu didn't look at him, just put his hands lightly in front of the fire, his expression indifferent.

After letting the little girl go in the alley at the beginning, Shen Yu knew that things were going to get even more interesting.

Many years ago, he also spared a little boy here.

At that time, the little boy was stopped by some people, and after some coercion and temptation, he told his appearance and traces.

And today, that little girl is still like that.

Shen Yu didn't want to kill these two people, even if they would bring him endless trouble.

Human life is precious.

...

The military formation on the border of Nanhe City, three hours ago.

Several corpses were neatly placed in a tent side by side, and it was several big men who died in the dark alley.

Captain Hu Bufeng stood in front of a younger male corpse with a gloomy face.

This person is the uncle of the young male corpse, the captain of Nanhe Town, there are dozens of military states in the Dali Dynasty, and there are hundreds of border towns like Nanhe Town.

Therefore, although he was a lieutenant, he was the lowest-ranking first-class officer, and there were only about a hundred soldiers guarding the city under his command.

A person like him may be inconspicuous in a big inland city.

But in Nanhe City, it is a true existence.

A soldier looked at Hu Bufeng cautiously and said, "General, do you want me to lead the troops to kill that person now?" Anyway, the little girl has already said everything, although that kid is a cultivator, but killing people in the street is a violation of my law of great departure. ”

"I want to think about it, don't rush it yet."

Hu Bufeng was fascinated and silent, and said quietly after half a ring: "Do you still remember, does Shen Yuan know about the case of destroying the door in the Shen Mansion?" ”

"Remember, that's a big deal."

The confidant soldier was a little puzzled, what did the general do when he mentioned this matter?

Hu Bufeng said: "Do you see the injuries on these people? If I'm not mistaken, this man is from the Taoist sect. ”

The soldier exclaimed in a low voice and said, "It's the Dao Sect!" ”

Hu Bufeng nodded and said: "The little boy of the Shen family back then is said to be extremely intelligent, he doesn't cry or make trouble, he knows everything well, he is a well-known prodigy, and it is said that he likes to watch some Taoist treasures since he was a child..."

The soldier heard the meaning of the words, but he still felt that his general was a little too suspicious, and what was the connection between what happened back then and what happened today.

"General, you are too worried, there are too many prodigies in the world, and even if it is the little son of the Shen family, how about it? The left and right are just ordinary people, besides, wasn't the Shen family all dead that day? ”

"No, there's one more person alive."

Hu Bufeng's eyes were confused, and he muttered: "There are twenty-seven people in the Shen family, and only twenty-six corpses were found later. ”

The henchman soldier's eyes widened, and he asked suspiciously: "Twenty-six, didn't the report in the palace say twenty-seven?" ”

"Because the matter was too strange at that time, the people in the capital and the prefecture had a speculation that they couldn't believe, because it was too appalling, so it was not announced."

Hu Bufeng looked at the wound on the young man's body, and said with a solemn expression: "This matter may be true." ”

The soldier asked, "What is the speculation?" ”

Hu Bufeng looked at the henchmen in front of him, his expression was complicated, and finally he said: "Back then, there was a great cultivator with extraordinary strength in Nanhe City, and that night, there were no other cultivators here at all. ”

"Among the twenty-seven corpses of the Shen family, only the little boy is missing."

"And most importantly, there are nine of them with wounds and the wounds of today... Same. ”

"Today.... The killer went... Shen Mansion. ”

Hearing this, the henchman's pupils constricted, and a cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he shouted in a lost voice: "General, you mean that the cultivator today is the little son of the Shen family, and... And he also killed with his own hands ... Kill .."
