It is a delicate and small key with a faint engraved number.

Day seven.

"What is this?" Zhao Ya asked.

The woman shook her head, and said with tears in her eyes: "I don't know, this is what my man gave me before, let me keep it for a good life." ”

can make He Zhen treat it so solemnly, which shows the importance of this key.

Zhao Ya accepted the key, looked at the weeping woman, and sighed secretly in his heart.

This woman is not stupid, she should have guessed that her man will never come back.

"Do you have anywhere else in the city?" Zhao Ya asked.

The woman shook her head, "My hometown is in the countryside thirty miles outside the city, and there are no relatives or friends in the city. ”

"Then you take these two children and leave Yandu City quickly and go back to your own home, remember, don't mention your man to others, and don't come back."

Then Zhao Ya gave the woman some scattered silver taels, although it was not much, but at least it was enough for her to live in the future.

For this woman, giving her too much money would hurt her.

Naturally, the woman was thankful and immediately began to pack her belongings and prepare to take her two children home for refuge.

Zhao Ya turned around and left.

He didn't go straight out the front door, but made a detour to an alley behind the alley, and then slowly walked to the main street of Qinglongfang as if nothing had happened.

As he walked, Zhao Ya pondered what this key was.

Since it is a key, there must be a corresponding lock, but the problem is that except for the number of Tianqi engraved on it, Zhao Ya did not find any other clues.

But Zhao Ya is not in a hurry, because this key is obviously closely related to the things hidden by He Zhen, although there is no clue now, but as long as he investigates He Zhen well, it is estimated that he can find a breakthrough.

While he was thinking about it, Zhao Ya occasionally felt something, and looked at a stall selling snacks such as tofu brain fried fritters across the street.

There are a few diners sitting in the stalls, and these diners are drinking tofu brains while looking at the pedestrians on the street.

This is not surprising, the point is that each of these diners is burly, and two of them can still see tattoos on their wrists despite wearing long-sleeved clothes.

Not only that, but although the few pedestrians chatting next to him seemed to be talking and laughing, their eyes kept looking at the alley.

When Zhao Ya passed by, the eyes of these people instantly focused on him.

Zhao Ya knew in his heart, knowing that this should be someone from the Four Seas Gang, and his heart was fast enough.

Although his heart shook slightly, Zhao Ya did not have any abnormality on the surface, and his steps were relaxed like a pedestrian rushing to an appointment, and he quickly walked through this long street.

These people didn't notice anything unusual, and when they saw that Zhao Yajing had withdrawn their gaze since leaving, they continued to stare at the alley.

At the same time, after Zhao Ya turned the corner, he saw Chen Xiaoer who was hiding.

Chen Xiaoer's face was anxious.

"Hero, the situation seems to be a little wrong, not long after you entered, there were many unfamiliar faces around, I had to hide here for safety, it should be that the news has leaked."

"Don't panic, the things are already in hand, and the news will be leaked."

Chen Xiaoer let out a sigh, "That's good, then what are we waiting for, let's leave this place quickly." ”

"Don't worry, you go first, I still have some things to do."

Still have something to do?

Chen Xiaoer was a little unsure, so he didn't know what Zhao Ya planned to do.

But since he said so, Chen Xiaoer naturally stopped insisting, so he nodded and said, "Okay, then be careful, I'll go first." ”

After Chen Xiaoer left, Zhao Ya found a hidden place, changed his clothes and put on the Yaksha mask, and then quietly lurked behind this group of stalkers.

With Zhao Ya's posture and level of breathing, these people naturally didn't notice it in the slightest.

Time passed little by little.

Soon, the time came in the afternoon.

Qinglongfang has become a little more lively, but the streets around the alley are extremely quiet.

Finally, a horse-drawn carriage slowly approached, breaking the silence around them.

When they came to the mouth of the alley, the carriage stopped, and then the curtain was lifted, and out of it came a tall and burly man.

This strong man was more than two meters tall and had a lot of body hair, and he really looked like a black bear that had become a sperm.

And in his hands there was a man on his hand.

The man hung his head, blood was dripping, and his limbs were even more limp, and he had obviously been severely punished.

"Lord Bear!"

The watchers hurriedly stood up and saluted.

The strong man nodded, "Is there anything abnormal?" ”

"Back to the sea lord, I didn't find anything abnormal, and Hezhen's secret foothold should be here."

The brawny man grinned, then grabbed the man's hair and lifted his head up.

"Which one exactly?"

The man trembled and said, "The most ...... The innermost one. ”

"Good!"

Then the strong man casually threw the man in his hand to the ground.

There was a thud.

The man let out a muffled snort, but then his moans stopped abruptly, for at that moment the strong man stepped on his head and stomped on his head alive.

The brains burst to the ground, but the strong man laughed very happily.

"Damn, Lao Tzu personally interrogated you, do you dare to procrastinate?"

The deceased was the one who had drunk with Chen Xiaoer and revealed the news.

At that time, this person not only told Chen Xiaoer about it alone, but also told everyone else.

So the news quickly reached the ears of Xiong Kun, the sea lord of Tianqing Qinghai.

He made a decision at that time to arrest the person who spread the news and interrogate him severely.

Because of this, he was only one step later than Zhao Ya.

After killing this person, Xiong Kun looked up at the alley, laughed fiercely, and then strode inside.

He and He Zhen are both one of the four sea masters of the Four Seas Gang, but the relationship is quite bad.

So when He Zhen died, he pretended to be sad in front of the big boss Fu Zhen, but in fact, his heart had already blossomed.

Later, Huang Fuzhen ordered a strict investigation of the murderer of He Zhen, and Xiong Kun was only positive on the surface, but in fact it was perfunctory.

Joke.

How could it be easy to kill the people who could kill He Zhen?

What if I continue to track down the real thing, what if I am implicated again?

The so-called dead friends do not die in the poor way, He Zhen deserves to die, and he can't repeat his mistakes.

In fact, not only Xiong Kun thinks so, but even Lang Songbai and Sheng Lianhua also have the same idea.

It's just an ordinary gang member, what kind of life are you playing!

But after hearing about the wealth left by He Zhen, Xiong Kun was extremely positive in an instant.

not only blocked the news as soon as possible, but also came in person non-stop.

Xiong Kun knew that He Zhen had been the sea master of the Four Seas Gang for so many years, and his net worth must be extremely rich, so he was bound to win this windfall.

When I came to the door, I was about to reach out and push the door.

Xiong Kun suddenly heard the sound of falling to the ground behind him.

Xiong Kun was born as a bandit and had extremely rich experience in actual combat, so he knew that something was wrong when he heard the sound, so he didn't look back, but forced himself to break into the door.

Click.

The gate and the wall collapsed.

The woman, who had already packed her luggage and was about to leave with her child, couldn't help but scream when she saw this.

Because this scene is so horrible.

Xiong Kun rushed in from outside the door, and his rampage looked like a frightened black bear.

The woman's face turned pale with fright.

A trace of doubt flashed in Xiong Kun's eyes.

Woman, with two children?

Could it be that I made a mistake?

Isn't this the place to stay in Hezhen?

But this is not the time to dwell on these.

With the power of this momentum, he had already mobilized the qi and blood all over his body, and the flesh and fat on his body instantly turned into hard plate armor.

It is Xiong Kun's famous stunt, fleshing armor.

Relying on this talisman, Xiong Kun finally had some confidence and turned to look behind.

I saw several people lying horizontally and vertically in the alley, all of whom were his subordinates.

You must know that although these people don't have much high skills, most of them are martial artists of the Three Realms, and a few of them have followed for many years and have reached the Four Realms.

But at this moment, these people were all lying on the ground, without a sound.

Seeing this scene, Xiong Kun couldn't help but gasp.

Being able to knock down so many people silently, Xiong Kun instantly thought of the existence that had recently made Sheng Lianhua suffer a big loss.

Sure enough.

Just as he was hesitant, a figure appeared in the alley, wearing a yaksha mask and a burly figure, slowly walking towards him.

"Your Excellency is also here for Hezhen's money? How about this, I voluntarily quit, what do you think? Xiong Kun hesitated for a moment, and then said.

Zhao Ya didn't say anything, just continued to walk towards Xiong Kun.

Xiong Kun seemed to be frightened, and his eyes were even more uncertain.

But when Zhao Ya walked to the door, Xiong Kun suddenly burst out, and pounced towards Zhao Ya like an angry black bear.

In the air, Xiong Kun first shot out a hidden weapon, trying to disrupt Zhao Ya's vision, and then the big fist of the casserole blasted over.

Zhao Ya had expected this.

Xiong Kun deliberately made a statement to show weakness just now, in order to weaken his vigilance, and then he burst out and tried to catch himself off guard.

The whole strategy can be said to be vicious and sophisticated, which shows that this Xiong Kun is not as rude and reckless as it seems on the surface.

But none of this can be hidden from Zhao Ya's eyes.

When the hidden weapon attacked, Zhao Ya flashed slightly, appearing behind Xiong Kun at a ghostly speed.

Xiong Kun knew that it was not good, but he did not panic, but transferred the qi and blood of his whole body to his back.

Suddenly, the fleshy armor on his back glowed like iron.

At this time, Zhao Ya's fist also arrived.

After the two struck together, only to hear a loud bang, Xiong Kun snorted in pain, and was shocked and flew away, and after stumbling to the ground, he didn't dare to stay at all, and ran out desperately.

The power of this punch almost killed him, and it also scared his guts.

Zhao Ya didn't chase after him.

Although this punch broke through Xiong Kun's defense just now, the power of the shock also made Zhao Ya's blood boil, and his breath became slightly scattered.

However, at this time, the talent of the lungs was revealed, and after just one breath, Zhao Ya felt that his qi and blood had returned to normal.

But at this time, Xiong Kun had already run away, and he didn't bother to chase after him.

This time the first shot is to weaken the strength of the Four Seas Gang, after all, he and the Four Seas Gang have formed a mortal enmity, sooner or later there will be a battle, and now to weaken their strength as much as possible, but also to prepare for the future.

The second is also to help the mother and son.

If this woman didn't take the initiative to hand over the key, Zhao Ya would at most remind her, and as for the rest, she could only resign herself to fate.

After all, Zhao Ya and He Zhen are enemies, and if he doesn't move his family, he already has a very bottom line, and it will be a bit difficult for a strong man to help again.

But the woman handed over the key very obediently, and it seemed that she didn't know anything about He Zhen, so Zhao Ya decided to help her.

Otherwise, neither she nor these two children would have survived.

At this moment, Zhao Ya glanced at the trembling woman, didn't say a word, turned around and disappeared behind the eaves.

The woman was stunned for a moment, then understood, bowed gratefully in the direction where Zhao Ya left, and then left in a hurry with the two children.
