Chapter 9 Stability

About a moment later.

Several figures appeared at the mouth of the alleyway, looking at the Black Snake Gang incense master who was lying in a pool of blood, and was silent for a while.

Someone squatted down, examined the wound, and whispered, "The wind passes without a trace...... This seems to be the sword technique of the eight branches of Qiantiankun and the earth, Xunfeng Yimai, looking at this strength and accuracy, it is estimated that it is at least a great practice, and there is no such person in our gang. ”

He stood up and asked one of them, "Lord Qu Xiang, do you want to investigate?" ”

The man who was replaced with the 'incense master' looked at the corpse in front of him and pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "The sword technique is complete...... It's just that, more things are better than less, anyway, people are dead, and we can also deal with them. ”

These years are mixed, if the other party is picked up by some small character, then maybe you still have to check it, but if it is a character who has a great sword technique, then there is no need to entangle more.

After all, the master of the sword technique is either a gang incense master, or a martial artist of a certain force, or even a bad head of the city guard, and there is no need to provoke if there is no injustice or hatred.

I just don't know who this person really is.

……

Chen Mu quickly returned home and closed the door.

Chen Yue looked at Chen Mu, who hurriedly entered the house without saying a word, Qiong's nose sniffed slightly, smelled a little blood, and showed a thoughtful look in his big eyes, and quietly followed into the house, and whispered:

"What's wrong with my brother?"

"I'm in a little trouble, but I'm fine now."

Chen Muwait closed the door, and after listening carefully to the movement, his mood calmed down.

I touched the silver and gold leaves hidden in my pocket, nearly seventy or eighty taels of huge money, for the civilian family is a silver that cannot be earned in a lifetime, and in these years, the world is chaotic, and there are many, many people who can't survive and sell themselves as slaves, often an eight or nine-year-old girl, a life, is only worth less than ten taels of silver, and the male is cheaper.

Fifty taels of silver is enough to buy a set of 'one entry' small courtyard in the relatively comfortable area near the 'City Guard' in Jiutiao, and generally you must at least be the owner of a restaurant pawnshop, or a small gang leader, or a poor head of the City Guard, to be able to live there.

It is impossible to say that after getting such a sum of money all of a sudden, there is no turmoil in my heart at all.

But today's Chen Mu is different from before, the skills and strength of the sword technique have given him the confidence and mentality, so that he can hold such a sum of money in his hand, and he can still suppress the waves in his heart, and analyze the situation calmly first.

"He wants to kill me, and I kill him, this is a matter of course, even if I am found afterwards, it is nothing, and others may not know that he has such a large sum of money on him...... Besides, even if I knew and found it, there was nothing, and with my current ability, I would still be able to hold it down with seventy or eighty taels of silver. ”

If he is just an ordinary low-level errand servant, picking up a leak, and wanting to covet the seventy or eighty taels of silver, it must be quite risky, once it is found out, not to mention that he has to hand over the money obediently, there may be a lot of trouble, and even he has to consider taking out most of it and giving it to the poor above, so as to get the protection of the poor head.

But now it's different.

He himself has the strength of sword skills, he can be a incense master in the gang, and he is also qualified to be a 'poor candidate' in the City Guard, only seventy or eighty taels of silver, he can still cover it.

And it was also the other party who wanted to kill him first, and was killed by him, so it was reasonable to be reasonable and reasonable.

Thinking of this, Chen Mu's heart became more and more calm.

"This money is enough for me to take Yue'er to a better house to live in, and the future will be much better, but it's best not to be too ostentatious, for the time being, let's take a look at the situation, when I kill people, there is no one left and right, and no one knows my strength, only that I am an ordinary errand soldier, and no one may be able to think of me, so it's better to avoid unnecessary trouble."

He has been living here since he came to this world, this old house has been in disrepair, there are no windows, and sometimes it leaks, in the past, he thought about it every day, so he took Chen Yue to change a good place, and now it is finally here.

But to avoid trouble, it's better to wait a little longer.

It's the food and clothing on weekdays, this kind of thing that won't be seen at home, but it can be more generous, at least the little girl can eat rice, flour and meat for every meal, and she can also add more blood and qi to strengthen her body.

Just as Chen Mu was thinking about it, Chen Yue circled around Chen Mu, and finally found a little blood stain on the corner of Chen Mu's clothes, which had not yet dried up.

She paused for a moment, but didn't say anything, but turned back to the front, deliberately stretched out her nose and sniffed at Chen Mu a little coquettishly, and said, "Brother has a smell on his body, quickly take off his robe and I'll wash it." ”

"Okay."

Chen Mu was thinking about it, and he didn't pay attention to Chen Yue at the moment, so he took off his errand clothes and handed it to Chen Yue.

Chen Yue ran to the firewood room with his robe in his arms.

At this time, Chen Mu recalled the thrilling scene at the mouth of the alley before, stretched out his hand and touched the knife soldier who was poor at the knife, and muttered: "I do have some strength now, the incense master of the Black Snake Gang can be regarded as a good hand, but in my hands he can't go a few rounds, although there is a reason why he is seriously injured and his sword skills are scattered and weak, but there is also the reason why my wind sword technique is refined and strong, and the 'Dacheng' forcibly raised by the system, in a sense, is probably purer than the Dacheng recognized by the outside world." ”

Chen Mu has always considered whether the system-assessed knife technique and the knife technique generally evaluated by the outside world can correspond one-to-one, and now it seems that the standard of the system is probably higher than that of the outside world.

In other words, his sword skills are more solid than ordinary people.

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Mu suddenly looked forward to the perfection of his sword technique and the scene when he practiced a wisp of wind knife momentum, and he didn't know how much his sword technique would improve at that time, and what kind of strong opponent he could become.

Maybe it's nothing in the entire Yucheng, but in the nine outer cities, there are not many people who can beat him.

Practice knives!

Chen Mu exhaled, pulled out his knife and took a look, and saw that there were still some blood stains on it, so he immediately went to wash the blood stains, and then began to practice in the evening every day.

……

Nothing happened overnight.

Chen Yue washed and cooked for Chen Mu as usual, pestered Chen Mu to tell stories when he slept at night, and fell asleep in Chen Mu's nonsense stories.

Chen Mu was not asleep at night, and vaguely heard some movement outside, but it was just some footsteps passing by, and no one paid attention to his two huts, and no one cared about a city guard officer living in the house.

In the daytime,

Chen Mu also breathed a sigh of relief, basically sure that there was nothing wrong, and then went to the City Health Division to change the card normally.

Coincidentally, when he went to the City Guard Division to change the card and inspect with Liu Song, Li Tie and others, he passed by the alley he walked last night, but saw the corpse lying there almost as it was at the mouth of the alley, and it seemed that the Chijin Gang had done nothing.

"Hey, this person seems to be the incense master of the Black Snake Gang."

Liu Song looked at the corpse and was slightly surprised, then approached the past, groped up and down, but there was nothing, and finally took a sip: "Tsk, it's really clean enough, and there is nothing in half." ”

In the past, he didn't dare to spit on a incense master of the Black Snake Gang like this, even if it was just a corpse, but now that the Black Snake Gang is in decline, the incense master and gang leader are basically dying, and the prestige of the past is long gone.

Chen Mu was silent, carried the body with Liu Song and others, sent it outside the city, and threw it into a mass grave.

"This Black Snake Gang shouldn't be able to survive."

On the way back, Liu Song also sighed: "That's how the gangs are, fighting and killing all day long, pinning their heads to the waistband of their trousers, although they can make some money, but I don't know when people will be gone, after all, we can't compare to us Worse people are stable, although we don't have any opportunities to make money and make progress, but the days are much more at ease." ”

Li Tie said: "I have a distant cousin, who also mixed with the gang, dared to fight in the first few years, and earned a lot of silver, but then one day he never came back, and he didn't see anyone dead or dead. ”

He looked at Chen Mu with a smile.

Liu Song also patted Chen Mu's shoulder with a smile and said, "You don't seem to have a family yet, when you have the opportunity, my brother will take a look and tell you about your family, so you can live a stable life." ”

"No hurry, no hurry."

Chen Mu smiled.

Liu Song squeezed his eyes at Chen Mu: "What's not in a hurry, you kid shouldn't be ...... yet." Well, right, I don't know what it tastes like, why don't you go now, my brother will take you to Lehele? ”

Li Tie laughed when he heard this, and said, "Lao Liu, you are really bold, I have to go and talk to my sister-in-law." ”

Liu Song said dissatisfiedly: "I am kind enough to arrange for Chen Er, what kind of mess is there to make a mess, let's go, dare to dismantle Lao Tzu's platform, I can tell you about the fact that you were drunk and pulled the pants of the widow of the west head that year." ”

"You dare!"

Li Tie's eyes widened, and then he quietly left and right with a weak heart.

Chen Mu only laughed at the quarrel between Liu Song and Li Tie, in the past, there was no silver to go to the land of Fengyue, but now he has silver, but he has more important things, and he is not willing to delay for a moment when he practices the knife.

The sooner he practices the Tempest Sword Technique to perfection, he will have more confidence as soon as possible, and he will have everything he should have, and he will not be in a hurry.

The development of events was as Chen Mu expected.

The Black Snake Gang was soon completely defeated by the Red Gold Gang, and completely disappeared in a few days and nights, and half of the gang was never seen again, and the forces that gradually controlled this large area of streets and alleys also changed from the Black Snake Gang to the newly rising Red Gold Gang.

In this process, there was no fluctuation at all about the death of the incense master, not to mention that someone found him, and he didn't even hear anyone mention it, just like a beggar who froze to death in the ditch on weekdays, no one cared.

Chen Mu was still cautious, and did not use the money to do anything big like replacing the new house, but only bought more rice, noodles and dried meat on weekdays to improve the food at home, and added a new padded jacket to Chen Yue, and the happy little girl almost jumped on the roof beam.
