Chapter 51: Clue

Entering the city, Chang Xi did not directly take Xin Tong to the Lin family. On the contrary, he led Xin Tong to wander in some small streets and alleys, taking the opportunity to buy some gadgets and the store to inquire about the Lin family in recent times.

And the result was a little surprising to Chang Xi.

It turned out that there was not only the force of the Lin family in the west of the city in Qingyang City, but also the Zhang family in the east of the city who fought against the Lin family and the city lord's mansion between the two families. The Lin family and the Zhang family have always been unpleasant, and there have been frequent frictions.

This time, the violent death of the Lin family was too strange, and the once huge investigation in the city was thunderous and rainy, which was really suspicious. Several liquor shops and gambling houses in the prime areas of the Lin family in the city are missing the backbone of the master, and the people under their hands are already a plate of loose sand and cannot afford to be a big deal. The booming business that was originally making money every day is now losing money day by day, but all this is a different scene in the eyes of those who are interested.

Chang Xi found a tea shop and told Xin Tong about the situation.

Xin Tong heard this, and suddenly his heart jumped to his throat again. I thought it was just an internal problem of the Lin family itself, but how could it involve the Zhang family, who were eyeing the Zhang family and ready to get a piece of the pie at any time, and the city lord's mansion with an unknown attitude? Xin Tong couldn't hold it back, and just wanted to stand up, but Rou Yi was pressed on the table by Chang Xi. Xin Tong looked at Chang Xi in confusion, only to see Chang Xi shake her head imperceptibly, signaling her to be calm and restless.

Letting go of Xin Tong's hand, Chang Xi glanced slightly at the street corner opposite the tea shop. The guards on tall horses were the same people I had seen on the official road in the forest just now. The crowd was surging on the street, but the sturdy man who looked like the head of the sect looked at them alone, especially on Xin Tong's face and figure several times. If it is an ordinary womanizer, Chang Xi doesn't mind cleaning up and letting them have a long memory. But Chang Xi's eyes were so keen, the complicated expression on that person's face didn't look like a womanizer at all, but more like a person with suffering.

"Dare to ask the little brother, do you know those people who look like guards?"

Chang Xi had a hidden guess in his heart, and asked the guy who added tea to his table, and turned out a broken silver in his hand and slipped it into the guy's waist pocket.

The tea guy was the most sharp-eyed, and when he saw that the round and broken silver feet looked like two or two, he immediately smiled, put the towel on his shoulder and said diligently: "How can you not know each other if you have to see it several times a day, those people are the guards of the second master of the Lin family." The man at the front is Lao Wang, the head of the guard under the second master. People are good people, but it's a pity that they are under the second master, hey. Speaking of the old king, the man sighed, and his tone was full of regret.

Chang Xi raised his eyebrows and said, "What else is not famous among them?"

"Lao Wang was an honest martial arts master before, and he was a practitioner with some real skills. The martial arts hall was not well managed, and Lao Wang relied on his ability to find a position as the head of the guard in the Lin family, which can be regarded as a bittersweet one. But how did he expect that after the death of the first master of the Lin family, he would become a greedy bastard overnight. Many beautiful women in Qingyang City have been harmed by him, but not all of them were captured by the old king to the Lin Mansion. Can he do this unreasonable thing with his conscience?" For the sake of two taels of broken silver, the man was happy, and he said it like a bean on a bamboo tube.

After paying the tea money and waving his hand to let the guy retreat, a cold glint flashed in Chang Xi's eyes. In his heart, he had already found the thread that could clear his thoughts in this intricate clue. Seeing the figure of the guards who disappeared at the corner of the street, their sharp eyes seemed to have passed through a wall of courtyard to look at the Lin Mansion located in the west of the city, which covered an area of an unknown area, and a meaningful smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he and Xin Tong got up and walked in the direction of the Lin Mansion.

Perhaps due to the recent notoriety of the Lin Mansion, the western part of the city is much more deserted than the bustling southern part of the city. The closer you get to the direction of Lin Fu, the more sparse the roadside shops and pedestrians become. It was past noon, and there was a chill in the wide, deserted streets.

As soon as the two of them walked to an uninhabited alley near the Lin Mansion, a dull sound of footsteps sounded around them and surrounded them.

"The fish is hooked. Chang Xi lowered his head and smiled coldly.

A dozen or so guards in iron chain armor blocked the water in front and back of the alleyway, which was no more than a foot wide. The two guards stepped forward and directly ignored Chang Xi, and nodded to Xin Tong behind him: "This girl, our second master is invited, and the girl is invited to move with us." ”

The guard's tone was extremely domineering, and he was very familiar with his words, and at a glance he knew that things like this kind of captive women were just commonplace for them.

Without waiting for Xin Tong to refuse, the guard brutally stretched out his hand and wanted to pull Xin Tong over. But as soon as his hand was stretched out, he was clamped by the man in front of him. The guard is also a practitioner, but his face is red, but he can't break free even the slightest bit in the white hands. The guard looked at it in shock, and it happened to meet the eyes full of forest.

"The hospitality of the Lin family is really an eye-opener. ”

Chang Xi sneered expressionlessly, and let the guard who was clamped on the wrist jump up and down to break free, and he never moved a single step under his feet.

After going through the trial of Kuixing Pavilion, Chang Xi's physical strength has long been different from what it used to be, and he has the power of a thousand catties with a single hand, and if he goes all out, he can reach an astonishing more than two thousand catties. Chang Xi has suppressed his own strength to an extremely low level, but it is by no means something that these ordinary people can compete with.

Chang Xi clasped the guard's wrist, and threw the person against the wall with a slight lift of his arm, and the guard's body smashed against the wall and shook a cobweb crack. Wang Jiaotou, who was standing at the entrance of the alley, was shocked when he saw that the young man had such a power with a single blow, but before he could drink his subordinates, the rest of the guards swarmed up. What happened right under his nose made him almost bite off his tongue.

I saw that the young man dressed in black turned into a black shadow, like a wind passing through the crowd coming and going freely. The terrifying aura that erupted with a casual touch of the wrist sounded frequently, as dull as a fist hitting a sandbag. In just a few breaths, a group of his guards spread out like dead fish at his feet, wailing and wailing.

What kind of martial arts master is this, he is clearly a person in cultivation!

Sect leader Wang was shocked in his heart, and the sun in front of him suddenly dimmed. When he looked up, the young man in black was already standing in front of him. I only hate in my heart, and if I do too much injustice, I will kill myself, and now it is retribution that is coming.

"Sect Leader Wang, right?"

Chang Xi is not taller than Lao Wang, but his tone is condescending.

Wang Jiaotou was stunned for a moment, wondering how this god-like young man would know about him. But at the moment, I don't have time to figure out the joints, so I just nod my head like pounding garlic.

"I have something to do, and I have to ask the head of the Wang sect to help. ”

Chang Xi's face was already harmless to humans and animals.
