Chapter 231: Reactions
"Have you heard? Have you heard? That Bai Huamen's inner disciple Fei Yuzhen was killed, and his body was worn on a wooden stake thirty miles outside the city, and some people said that to see the traces of bloodshed, he was still alive to put on it!"
"Ge Shuo, the third-level deacon of Baihuamen, was also killed, as well as fifteen guards of Xingchen Hall, all the corpses were neatly lined up on the side of the road, scared to death!"
"I heard that the other party is very big, and it is very likely to be Baihuamen's rival, but I think it's right, you must know the strength of the team, but it is not something that ordinary people can deal with, didn't you see that the city defense army was always head-hunting that day, and he didn't even dare to fart when he was scolded. ”
"Retribution! This is retribution! It's not that you don't repay, the time has not yet come!"
Hey, that kid was so arrogant when he first went out of the city, he definitely couldn't have imagined that he would be killed if he left the city, right? That kind of death, it really feels terrifying to think about, let alone experience it in person?"
"But then again, it's a relief to be angry, the investigation team can't say when it will come down, you and I still have to keep our mouths shut, don't get into trouble!"
"yes, yes..."
Restaurants, teahouses, brothels, and even storytellers on the street are quietly discussing, and one by one the faint voices finally converge into a turbulent wave of women, sweeping the entire Ethereal City, including Xiao Lin and the others, all of them are in Wan'er's house, helping the relatives of the Zhang family to take care of the aftermath, cleaning up the house that was burned by the fire, and according to the rules, it will be parked for seven days before the funeral, but they belong to the horizontal death, so they will be buried immediately after accepting the worship.
After returning from the cemetery, the news came, so that everyone couldn't help but be stunned, many people cried, and then began to laugh again, and finally everyone hugged each other and cried, the sadness was spreading, some people said that this was revenge, and some people said why not kill Fei Yuzhen earlier, so that this tragedy would not happen.
A white-haired cultivator shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "You can't say that, no one can predict the disaster coming, at least no one in our Ethereal City can do it yet, now we should feel happy after grief, because the murderer has been duly punished, not to complain, or to fantasize that no one owes us anything except the murderer." ”
"Yes, people's actions are equivalent to directly helping us take revenge, how can we ask for too much?"
On the side of the female dependents, the same topic is still being discussed, especially in the minds of some young girls, there is no lack of an inexplicable worship of some tasks that dare to do cruel things, not long after the news came, there were already seven or eight girls who were going to marry the hero they had never met, until the parents glanced sideways and quieted down, and after a while they began to whisper again.
At this time, Xiao Pepper came to Xiao Lin's side, looked left and right, and said mysteriously: "What kind of man is called, do you see it now? Just your friend, he disappeared without even saying a word, compared with the hero who does good deeds without leaving a name, it's just... Alas!"
Xiao Lin blinked and said calmly, "How do you know that it wasn't done by a female knight?" If he dares to leave his name, does the investigation team still need to investigate?"
Xiao Chili's slightly thick lips pursed up a serious appearance less pungent, more simple and innocent and cute, she thought about it, she really didn't expect anything to refute, so she said: "That's the inner disciple of Baihuamen, even if the female chivalrous warrior is powerful, there is a limit, it must be done by a man, maybe he is very handsome, even if he marries him as a concubine, it's really not good, the bed warmer can accept it, I don't care, anyway, it's much better than your friend." ”
"I didn't say I was going to marry Duan Qing. Xiao Lin's face was full of inexplicability.
"Then I don't care, anyway, I don't think your friend is very good, you must stay away from him in the future, otherwise I will be angry. Pepper turned her head and snorted, turned around and staggered away.
Xiao Lin shook her head speechlessly, she really had a headache for the heartless little pepper, but before she could say anything, Zhang Cuihua, the mother on the side, walked over with a strange expression, hugged her daughter's arm and walked to the side of the crowd, and whispered: "Girl, what's the situation? Why didn't you tell your mother, you're going to get married?
"What's with what?" Xiao Lin had a complete headache, and said speechlessly: "Mom~, don't listen to Xiao Chili nonsense, it's her who wants to marry the person who avenged Wan'er's family, there is nothing between me and Duan Qing, just ordinary friends, oops, strictly speaking, it's not even an ordinary friend, it's just that he occasionally goes to the guild to pick up tasks, or wants to buy some good materials at a low price, I'll help pay attention to the collection, that's it." ”
"That's it?" Zhang Cuihua was full of disbelief: "Don't be confused with you, Mom, let me tell you, back then, I just saw that your father was dressed okay, and he looked good, and he didn't care much about spending money occasionally before marrying him, and you have also seen how your mother's life has been over the years." I can tell you, you're only nineteen years old now, and there's no hurry to get married, and besides, there are so many people in and out of your guild every day, and there is no one who is excellent?"
Xiao Lin thoughtlessly, Mom, what are you telling me not to worry, I just want me to find a rich person to marry, Zhang Cuihua thought that she had hit her daughter's mind, and immediately asserted: "I can tell you, I have heard all of Xiao Pepper's words, in the future, you will stay away from that Duan Qing in the future, I think he always goes to the guild because his purpose is not so pure, do you hear?"
"I heard..."Xiao Lin was completely speechless, where is this? But she really didn't bother to explain it anymore, so as not to describe it more and more black, if she wanted to say resentment, she actually didn't have any in her heart, after all, it was ordinary... Relationship, what qualifications do you have, asking others to do too much?
......
As soon as the news came out, it was like a torrent pouring out, and it was not easy to block it, but in this case, Xingchentang was the last to get the news, and even those sects and halls remained silent, the reason for this is actually that Xingchentang's actions in the past two years have been very big, often occupying the resources of other halls in the open and secret, and then pretending to be confused when the other party finds them, and then after the investigation is determined, it has been a few days later, even if the resources are returned, the resources above have also been vigorously developed, and they are specially selected to take the better, this situation makes many Tangkou managers quite dissatisfied, this time, but he is ready to see the excitement.
"Hmph! I heard that the storage bag brought by the deacon of Baihuamen was filled with all kinds of resource materials, and it was filled with four troikas, and there were a lot of materials that should have belonged to us. "In one of the halls, when several hall masters and deputy hall masters gathered together, one of the deputy hall masters spoke.
The other person nodded and said: "That's right, it's not difficult to take away the goods, but to kill everyone, before the end, there is no wind at all, then it is not simple, according to the strength comparison, I suspect that there is at least one master at the peak of the Yuan Infant Stage, otherwise it is absolutely impossible!"
"That's right, it's almost impossible for that kind of power to appear in scattered cultivation, and there is no one between you and me, otherwise we would be sitting in the pavilion of the sect now watching the flowers and admiring the moon. The hall master and the old god were sipping tea and said with relish: "I can't tell which master that guy has offended, he has been targeted for a long time." ”
The deputy hall master also smiled: "That's right, otherwise all this really can't be explained." However, once the investigation team arrives this time, I am afraid that it will not leave for a short time, and maybe it will borrow people from us. ”
"What does it have to do with us, if we borrow someone's hands, I only have two handymen under the idle hands, can't I take them all away?" the hall master put down the tea bowl and looked at the deputy hall master and laughed.
......
The section of the road outside the city for 30 to 45 miles has been completely under martial law, and all idle people are forbidden to approach, and everything at the protection site is intact.
For this reason, Lin Ranjie, the deputy hall master of Xingchen Hall, has mobilized all the manpower that can be mobilized, including all the outer disciples, registered disciples, and miscellaneous servants, but the manpower is less than three hundred, and it is shameless to borrow people from other sects, and in the end, he can only issue a task in the Monks Guild to recruit temporary workers, the first phase is fifteen days, and the remuneration is three thousand top-grade spirit stones, which is not a high price, but it has almost emptied Lin Ranjie's change bag, and it will really hurt to take it again.
Standing on this desolate dirt land, Lin Ranjie still feels as if he is in a dream, why did such a thing happen in less than a day?
"Special code, Lao Tzu has been carefully adjusted, and the bed warmer girl who has not been used once has been taught for ten years, there are only four in total, all of them are sent to your bed, and it is not enough? Where do you get so much energy? You just go back and give Lao Tzu a few words of good words and then die?"
Lin Ranjie can be said to be full of complaints, Fei Yuzhen has not been in Ethereal City for a long time, but Lin Ranjie's family wealth accumulated over the years has been a lot of harm, I thought that from then on, I would have hugged the big leg and removed the sub-word on the title, how could I have thought that if the sub-word was not removed, the head may be about to be lost, almost half of the family wealth is saved for others, Lin Ranjie is angry in his heart, but he can't show it.
After determining the number of deaths and seeing the tragic situation of the aftershock, Lin Ranjie was of course most concerned about those goods, there was no accident at all, except for the carriage, there was nothing, there was not even a piece of spiritual stone slag clean, the other party's boldness and calmness really opened his eyes, and he was even more sure of the object of suspicion, he was definitely a person in the sect, and it must be among those three sects!
"Boom..."
There was a roar in the sky, Lin Ranjie looked up, a starship gradually showed its outline, and a cloud of sadness flashed between his eyebrows...
He knew that it was the mission that had arrived.
