Chapter 31: Li Xiaozhu's Mistake
Nanyang City, at night.
Li Xiaozhu, dressed in black, was lying on the roof, moving from the tiles without making any sound, quietly circling around the target location.
As a mirror guard, not only do you have to practice hard, but you can't fall behind in the skills of stealth, disguise, detection, and code language.
She has been a newcomer for two and a half years, and she has also practiced the basic skills for two and a half years, and she has never slackened, just so that she can use it when she goes out on a mission.
I used it tonight, it worked well, and everything went well.
One of the kidnapping gangs that the note said was located here.
Li Xiaozhu moved his position on the roof, and finally had a good view, so that he could observe the most suspicious room.
Looking through the tattered corner of the window paper, I looked at what it looked like there was a woman in the room, curled up in the corner, with blood on her forehead, silent, and not moving for a long time.
Li Xiaozhu's heart is beating wildly, there is really a problem here!
She wanted to jump in to save someone, but she held back.
There are also people in the next few rooms, who may be the criminals, and the number and strength are unknown.
Li Xiaozhu lifted the iron-bottomed glass mirror hanging from his waist.
This is a unique magic weapon of Jingwei, which is uniformly refined by the excellent craftsmen of the imperial city, and has functions such as observing qi and taking photos, and is specially designed for investigating cases.
Aiming the glass mirror at the houses, when viewed from the side, the mirror surface glowed with a light red, indicating that the blood of the alchemist was observed.
With a cultivator here, she naturally can't act rashly alone.
And it's not the only den.
If you want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, you still have to rely on the large army of the mirror guards.
What needs to be done now is to collect evidence first.
Li Xiaozhu pointed the glass mirror at the position of the woman in the room again.
Instilling the aura into the mirror, and then pressing a finger on a certain part of the frame, the image of the woman on the mirror is captured.
After successfully collecting evidence, she quickly evacuated, climbed to the roof of another house, and then jumped into a small alley with no people.
got up and went straight to the Jingwei Yamen.
After crossing two streets, she no longer concealed the sound of her footsteps, and ran as fast as she could, for fear that she would have an accident if she was too late.
Unexpectedly, halfway through the run, five or six black shadows suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the way.
"I said how to walk and suddenly disappeared, it turned out to be here."
The first person smiled and said, "Li Jingwei, why did you come out so late?" ”
Hearing this voice, Li Xiaozhu's heart sank, and he immediately raised the glass mirror in his hand and shouted majestically:
"You are Deng Maoyu's lackey, you know the consequences of attacking a mirror guard!"
Deng Gongzi in Nanyang City, with a deep background and unparalleled romance, likes to recruit female cultivators the most, and his name is "Nursing Hospital", which is actually a bed for weekends.
Li Xiaozhu, who has a delicate appearance and a refreshing and clean temperament, was unlucky to be favored by him and was harassed repeatedly.
Fortunately, the little girl, as the child of the Mirror Guard martyrs, has a good cultivation talent, and was selected exceptionally at a young age to become a Mirror Guard.
Deng Gongzi couldn't mess around no matter how greedy he was, so he specially sent a few people to follow and keep an eye on him from time to time.
At the same time, he used his connections to let Li Xiaozhu's colleagues target her and put psychological pressure on her.
"The twisted melon is the sweetest." Deng Gongzi once said to the little girl with a smile, "The more you resist, the more excited Ben Gongzi will be." ”
The pressure created by colleagues is nothing, and Li Xiaozhu has long been downset.
The uncles and aunts who loved her in the yamen back then all left with their parents, and she had no feelings for the current yamen, and it didn't matter if she was isolated.
But tonight, the situation is extremely dangerous.
She thought that the disguise technique had an effect, and she didn't notice anything unusual when she went out, but she didn't expect to be secretly followed by those people.
I didn't expect that they would dare to commit murder on the street and surround a mirror guard!
The person on the opposite side should be a body refiner at the peak of the Second Realm.
In terms of combat power in the early stage, the Qi Refiner was obviously weaker than the Body Refiner, and if he wanted to fight against the peak of the Second Realm in the Second Realm, Li Xiaozhu thought that he had no chance of winning.
She could only speak intimidatingly, and her voice was deliberately loud so that the occupants on both sides should be able to hear it.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, the other side also shouted:
"Deng Mansion is doing things, everyone nearby is honest, and each family will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver!"
The streets and alleys on both sides were silent.
Li Xiaozhu trembled with anger.
"Also, we are not attacking Jingwei, we are inviting you to go to Deng Mansion for a night, and Deng Gongzi will personally entertain you, and you can go back tomorrow morning."
The shadows grinned wickedly, approaching.
Li Xiaozhu turned around and saw that there were also people blocking the road behind him.
Now there is no luck at all, and you can only fight against the water.
The consequences of failure, she could not accept.
If you die, you can't be taken to the Deng Mansion.
"It's just death." The little girl suddenly came to her senses, calmed down, and was no longer so flustered.
Death seems to be going to meet your parents.
It just so happens that I haven't talked to them for a long time, so I can talk about the experience of "chivalry and righteousness" over the years, and talk about the ranger brother who gave her a "flying sword......
Li Xiaozhu's attention was focused on the enemies in front and behind.
Therefore, it was not noticed that inside the collar, the pocket wooden sword hanging around the neck suddenly lit up with a faint light.
However, the glimmer only faintly lit up for a moment, and then dimmed again.
Until there was silence, nothing changed.
Li Xiaozhu had already pulled out his short knife and stood in the dark alleys, facing the cold night wind alone.
A cold voice rang out abruptly, coming from the other side.
"Li Xiaozhu, you are so bold!"
It is the voice of the team.
"In the middle of the night, without reporting, I went out alone with an iron mirror and a saber, do you know that this is a violation of the regulations?"
I couldn't see my face clearly at night, but Li Xiaozhu could already imagine the nasty look with a straight face.
I'm ready to fight to the death, and I'm going to be scolded by my superiors here first?
Li Xiaozhu snorted indignantly and ignored him.
"It's Team Liu, this little thing, what are you doing here, you have time to drink together." The shadow laughed.
Cangchangchang!
The blade reflects the faint lights in the distance, like a distant meteor, fleeting.
The sound of blood splashing was like a basin of water being splashed on the ground.
The shadow fell in astonishment.
"You stupid, you will still be a newcomer after ten years of training, and you still want to go out and do tasks?" The team continued to scold Li Xiaozhu.
The sound of knives continued, and one after another black shadows died in terror.
"If you don't listen to the command and act willfully, you will only die in vain in the end, and you will be embarrassed by your father."
The rest of the shadows found that the leader was dead, and they did not dare to confront one of the mirror guards, so they fled.
There was only one person left at the corner of the street, walking in the shadows with a knife, and there were corpses at his feet.
Li Xiaozhu was stunned.
Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar figure, she finally remembered.
When I was a child, every time I celebrated the Spring Festival, those mirror guards would form a group to come to the house to pay New Year's greetings, so it was not lively.
At that time, a young man was always followed by the crowd.
The young man didn't talk much, and always had a stinky face, as if he was not here to pay New Year's greetings, but to collect debts.
Therefore, Li Xiaozhu, who was only six or seven years old at the time, already hated him very much.
But in fact, the young man would come every year until both her parents died.
"It turns out that I have been wrong all along." The young girl muttered.
