Chapter 160: Roundabout
Since the end of the Ancient Blood Building, the number one killer organization in Xihe, Xihe has never had this kind of large-scale assassination against the family.
Even the Dalin Bounty Guild, which rose in the Battle of the Tang Dynasty, only dared to take on some painless tasks in the black market.
Today's Longzhou, except for the disciples who graduated from the business department of Wushuang Academy, which are stirring up the wind and rain, has become very stable on the whole.
And Wushuang City's move completely broke this stability.
Although the Yun Clan disciples brought out from Long Yuan are not so prominent in the wind media profession, they can't stand up to their strong powerlessness.
Compared to ordinary wind medians who can only escape, these wind media cultivated by Wushuang City are all outstanding assassins.
Skip the intermediate link of intelligence exchange, determine the target person, step on the retreat route, and then make a brazen attack.
The stable situation made those sons and brothers who committed great things in Wushuang City think that as long as they got their family territory back, they could sit back and relax.
With three or five friends, the Qinglou restaurant was looking for fun, and he was killed by a short dagger or a poisonous needle when he staggered with a small maid or maid.
The family that had lost their blood relatives knew better than anyone else that Wushuang City was behind it, but they couldn't find anything to prove their guess.
Yun's disguise technique, aided by intelligence and force, made the group of assassins as ghostly as difficult to catch.
Many criminals can only hide in the most secret places of the family, but even so, they still can't fully guarantee safety.
The desperate families found the He family, who was also entrenched in Lingjiang, hoping that they could send an envoy to Wushuang City to say Xiang.
As long as the assassination of family members is stopped, Wushuang City will be given satisfactory compensation.
Of course, José would not refuse such a commission that could gain a lot of fame in the family without much effort, and after a few shirks, he agreed that he would try his best to persuade but not guarantee success.
In order to show the importance of this matter, Jose even arrived in Wushuang City in person, but he did not rashly ask to see the dean, but found Du Ting first.
No one knew what the two had discussed, only that after Jose met with Du Ting, he left Chixia Mountain and conveyed to the families the attitude of Wushuang City on this matter.
"The families of the victims do not need material compensation, they only need the enemy's life to pay for it, and the city hall is very resolute, and now is not the right time to negotiate. ”
When Jose informed the family masters who were waiting in Lanshan City of the attitude of Wushuang City, a feeling of panic spread in the hearts of everyone.
Many families have expressed their willingness to increase compensation, as long as they do not let their clansmen die, it is easy to say anything.
But José just shook his head, saying that there was nothing he could do, and that he could understand the fears of these families, but there was nothing he could do.
Since Yanyang Sword Venerable sent three hundred disciples into the academy, today's Wushuang Academy has become the holy land of martial arts in Longzhou.
This kind of positive fame made the Wushuang Academy inherently stand on the commanding heights of public opinion, especially this time, which really scratched the itch of the group of scattered cultivators and disadvantaged people.
It reminds these people of the time when they were regarded as grass by the family and the powerful, and Wushuang City is willing to hold the family accountable for those who died, so that the already bright brilliance will add to the sacredness.
And what about these families?
At this point, even if they hand over their clansmen briskly, there is no way to reverse the trend of public opinion.
It will also make the whole clan deviate from morality, if the family can even give up the core members, then what reason does the side family have to die for it.
As public opinion ferments, they have become the target of public criticism, and their enemies will definitely make good use of these things.
After that, the vitality is already the best result.
A family that has been inherited for more than 100 years, just because he made a little mistake in Wushuang City, he was sent to a place of no return.
......
The eastern foothills of Chixia Mountain
Yanyang Sword Venerable Xu Changhao settled here, and at this moment, this Sword Venerable Lord was cooking meat and wine, receiving an important guest.
The man with a face who couldn't see his age was sitting upright on the futon, and his calm eyes made people unable to see joy and sorrow, only an immeasurable majesty.
There will always be some communication between the outstanding disciples of various generations in the Holy Land, and the friendship between men is more from confrontation.
A lot of times you don't have to be evenly matched, and in fact there are some differences in strength and weakness that are better suited to friendships.
Therefore, as long as the outstanding disciples of the Holy Land walk around Xihe, most of them are acquaintances all over the place (except for some scum in the Holy Land who will harm a girl when they go anywhere).
And people, the appreciation of beauty is something engraved in the bones, and handsome characters will always get more favor.
This kind of charm is especially fatal to the group of romantic swordsmen in Yuanzhou.
So when An Yuanxi finished walking in the major sword sects in Yuanzhou, he gained a lot of fans and friends, and Xu Changhao of the Yanyang Sword Sect was one of them.
"When I came to visit the Yanyang Sword Sect, Brother Changhao had already presided over the internal affairs of the Sword Sect, and it had only been more than 20 years since he had already sat on the throne of the Sword Venerable, unlike Yuan Xi who was stumbling in the royal patrol, and he still couldn't get up and down!"
Time flies, and when I see my old friend's face as before, I will sigh a little.
The gentle memories evoked will dissolve the mental defense built by time, and Xu Changhao, who heard the self-deprecation in his old friend's words, poured wine for An Yuanxi and quipped: "This is not like what Yushen would say." ”
"There are people in the country, and a new generation replaces the old. How can I be so high-spirited that I am an out-of-luck saint. ”
Shaking his head and drinking all the wine in the cup, An Yuanxi let out a satisfied "ho-ho" sound in his throat: "Good wine, strong enough!"
"The blade specially brought from Yingcheng is a total of two altars, if it weren't for the feather god, the deity would be reluctant to open the seal!"
Xu Changhao filled himself with a smile, and after drinking it all, he made the same sound as An Yuanxi.
You have a bowl, I have a bowl, the two of them didn't talk anymore, they just drank happily, and after a while, the wine was empty.
Shaking the last two drops but still only half filling An Yuanxi's bowl, Xu Changhao got up and took out another jar after struggling for a while.
"Drink it all, drink it all, and don't worry about it when you drink it all!"
Holding the wine jar and pouring it into the jue, the spiritual fire under the three feet is blazing, and the spirits are even more heartburn after being boiled, which is also the unique way to drink the spirit wine called Blade.
Taking advantage of this pouring wine and cooking wine, Xu Changhao began to gossip with An Yuanxi.
"If Wang Xun is not comfortable, he will come out to set up his own door, with your reputation as a feather god in the Middle Continent, as long as you speak out, it is not a follower. Wouldn't it be bad to be angry in Wang Xun, but I heard about it, so An Jingtian doesn't seem to deal with you very well. ”
"You also know that there is some misunderstanding between this and that one, but An Jingtian is a senior after all, and he won't treat me well. ”
An Yuanxi shook his head: "Besides, Yuanxi joined Wang Xun not to compete for fame and fortune, but to really believe that if you want to maintain the right path in the world, you can't listen to and believe partially." The Governor is the eyes and ears of Middle-earth, able to see the real world. Compared to this, a short-term grievance is nothing. ”
