It's getting late.

Wei Tao had just finished tidying up the house and came to the yard to throw away the unwanted garbage.

Bang bang bang!

There was a knock on the door.

Putting down the things in his hand, Wei Tao glanced at the door in some surprise.

He was really curious, he had only completed the handover of the title deed at noon, and before he had really moved in, someone had already come to visit.

Are the residents of the wealthy district so hospitable?

But looking out through the crack in the door, Wei Tao couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.

It turned out to be a sergeant in leather armor.

And on the main road a little farther away, there were a few sergeants waiting.

"This military master, I don't know what you are doing?"

Wei Tao secretly opened the door with blood.

"You're a new resident?" The sergeant didn't come in, just stood there and asked.

"Yes." Wei Tao nodded.

The sergeant arched his hand, and a stylized stiff smile appeared on his face, "Let me inform you, according to the regulations set by Lord Zhou of the city's garrison, the residents of this area must pay one or two taels of silver every month as the night patrol fee of the city defense army. ”

One or two pieces of silver a month is also a big expense, and the guy surnamed Qi has never mentioned it.

Sure enough, there is no traitor and no business, as long as you can sell the house and make money, where will you care about the rest of your affairs.

Moreover, he had just gotten the title deed at noon, and the sergeant who came in the afternoon came to knock on the door and collect the fee, and the news was delivered quickly enough.

Wei Tao was silent for a moment, he didn't know whose pocket this "property fee" had fallen into, and he didn't want to find out.

He only knew that if he could have a good relationship with the patrol sergeant, it would be very beneficial in the future.

Quietly, a tael of silver ingots was sent into the hands of the sergeant.

Then, Wei Tao remained silent and rubbed his fingers lightly.

"The military master patrols hard, and a little tea money is not a tribute."

The sergeant was slightly stunned, looked down at the extra piece of broken silver in his hand, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Ahem, my surname is Bian, and I am the commander in charge of patrolling today, so just call me Lao Bian directly."

Wei Tao nodded, "Brother Bian is tired from patrolling outside, so it's better to call the brothers in for a drink after dark, which can be regarded as helping the younger brother celebrate the housewarming." ”

"This ......," Bian Wu hesitated slightly.

"There is a restaurant on the street in front, and it won't take too long for my younger brother to pack a table of noodles and come back."

Wei Tao paused here for a moment, "I remember that Senior Brother Tan Pan and I said when we were drinking that the dishes in that restaurant are not bad, I just moved from elsewhere, and I really want to try the dishes there." ”

When Bian Wuchang heard this, his face changed slightly, "Senior Brother Tan Pan, isn't the son the eldest disciple of Master Zhou of the Red Line Martial Arts Pavilion?" ”

"Well, the younger brother was accepted as a personal disciple by Master Zhou not long ago." As Wei Tao spoke, he took out another piece of broken silver and was about to walk outside.

"Hmm...... How can such an errand job be done by Lao Gongzi himself? ”

With a wave of his hand, Bian Wu called a subordinate, and commanded, "You go to the restaurant over there and call a table of noodles, and let them send them to this son's mansion." ”

Wei Tao grabbed Bian Wuchang, and still handed over the silver money in his hand, "I invite you brothers to eat and drink, how can I let Brother Bian break the bank?" ”

Half an hour later.

Bian Wuchang walked out of the door drunk and slightly drunk, and arched his hand at Wei Tao, "Son, you can rest assured, what you just said, the brothers will definitely investigate it strictly!" ”

"Damn, those little gangs really don't know whether they live or die, and they dare to openly gather people to make trouble in the Jade Workshop and other realms close to the inner city, and if they don't kill their prestige, our city defense army has no place to save face!"

"Yes, Childe can say hello if he has something."

The armor soldier below echoed continuously, "If there is anything in the future, the son will say it directly, don't say anything else about our brothers, and the strength of the two arms is still there." ”

"Brother Bian and the brothers walk slowly, and when you have nothing to do in the future, come over to rest your feet, drink a few glasses of water and wine to relieve fatigue."

Wei Tao watched everyone go away, turned around and closed the door.

A meal of wine and a little silver can get closer to this city defense army, which is undoubtedly a very cost-effective thing.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that he showed his identity as a disciple of the Red Line Sect for the first time.

If you are just rich, in this chaotic world, you can only be regarded as a fat pig in the eyes of others, and everyone wants to pounce on it and bite it.

However, if you add strength to money, it becomes a completely different situation.

The combination of the Youth Cohes and the city defense force should ensure the safety of the family for the time being.

However, as long as the ultimate root cause of the problem and the main contradiction are not eliminated, the crisis hidden in the shadows will be difficult to dissolve.

After punching in the wide courtyard for a while, Wei Tao dissipated his qi and blood, looked up at the sparse starry sky, and the figures of the Wang family sisters and brothers appeared in front of him again.

What he lacks most now is time.

As long as he is given a period of peaceful development, he will be able to break through the cultivation in one fell swoop, enter the blood coagulation, and even push him to the highest level of the red line realm.

At that time, whether it was Wang Yingxue or the Silver Wolf Gang, there was nothing to be afraid of.

……………………

"Haven't found Bai Qian yet?"

At the headquarters of the Silver Wolf Gang, Wang Yingxue sat still, looking at the man in black kneeling on one knee below.

"Nope." The man in black cautiously replied, "Miss Bai Qian's last appearance was in the afternoon four days ago, she took a few people out, and then never came back. ”

Four days ago in the afternoon?

Wang Yingxue frowned slightly, falling into thought.

According to Bai Qian's style of acting, if nothing else, she should go directly to find a target...... Wei Tao.

She's always been on her own, so bringing a few gang members should keep them in charge of keeping an eye on and keeping track of her.

When it was time to really decide to make a move, she held back the others and broke the bones of her target little by little with her feet.

However, Bai Qian is missing.

Even a few of the gang disappeared.

Could it be that he didn't kill someone, but died in the hands of Wei Tao?

A thought flashed through his heart, and was quickly rejected by Wang Yingxue.

That's impossible.

Absolutely impossible.

Bai Qian is a killer she personally cultivated.

Although the strength level is not as good as herself, if it is used to deal with a guy who is only at the forging level, there will be no accidents at all, and she will not lose her life by counter-killing.

So, could it be that behind Wei Tao, there is still a mysterious master hidden?

Wang Yingxue quickly recalled the information about Wei Tao, and did not believe that this would happen anyway.

Or did Bai Qian accidentally provoke a passing strong dragon after going out?

Or did she suddenly make other discoveries and leave Cangyuan City without saying goodbye?

After thinking about it for a long time, but still didn't get a satisfactory answer, Wang Yingxue couldn't help but sigh lowly, "I asked you to check Weitao's family, what is the situation now?" ”

"Miss Hui, we did find out where they were, but ......" The man looked up at her, and stopped talking.

"But what?" Her eyes were cold, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity, nailed to the man's face.

"Yes, that's right."

The subordinate swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said tremblingly, "We found out that Wei Tao's father's name is Wei Rongxing, and he is now working in a new house on the edge of the inner city, and his mother and sister are working in the jade workshop. ”

"But these two places are close to the inner city,

None of our people dared to break in directly,

So I can only stay nearby and wait for my chance.

But I don't know why,

They first clashed with some bastards on the streets, and the two sides fought.

and then provoked the gang of villains of the city defense army,

The brothers we sent out were beaten severely,

A few even went to jail,

It hasn't been released until now. ”

"Also, the brother who was sent to guard near the house surnamed Wei has not heard from him until now, and his subordinates asked people to investigate around that alley today, but they heard some strange rumors."

"What rumors?" Wang Yingxue asked.

"Just three days ago morning, in that place called Yaoshi Lane, two families were destroyed, their bodies twisted, their expressions frightened, and it looked like they had been drained of blood......

The subordinate whispered, his voice full of fear.

"Forget it, don't stare at it yet, tell them to withdraw all the people."

Wang Yingxue closed her eyes, kneaded her eyebrows a little tiredly, and after being silent for a long time, she suddenly asked, "Is the young master back?" ”

The personal maid on the side said, "If you go back to Miss, the young master hasn't come back yet." ”

"Did you go to the inner city to spend all day drinking, Xiaoshan is becoming more and more disobedient."

Wang Yingxue snorted coldly, "When he comes back, let him come to me." ”

"Yes, Miss." The maid curtsied and slowly closed the door.

Little by little, time passed.

After some time, the candle in the house went out.

The room was plunged into darkness.

"A guy with no roots and no roots, is it really so hard to clean up?"

A pair of eyes slowly opened in the dark, shining, "This matter can't be delayed for a long time, Master Zhou must get everything done before he comes back." ”

"If it really doesn't work, I'll do it myself!"
