Black Stone Ridge, Seven Evil Village.

The brazier on the square is blazing, the drum is majestic, and the apricot yellow flag is hunting.

Dozens of large square tables are scattered, the wine and food on the table are abundant, and the mountain bandits step on the stools one by one, drinking and fist-fighting, and from time to time they will toast to a long pear wood table in front of the first hall and offer a few sycophants.

On the pear wood square table, there are seven figures.

The first person is burly, half bare-chested, and a scar on his face runs diagonally across the whole face, showing a fierce spirit, this person is the second master of Qisha Village, today is his fiftieth birthday, so he celebrates the village.

In front of his desk, there was a pair of hearts and livers, red and bloody, but he picked them up and bit them directly, and his mouth was full of blood. He has a cruel personality, likes to eat living people's hearts and livers, and is famous for his murder within a radius of dozens of miles.

"I wish the second brother happiness like the East China Sea, and longevity than Nanshan!"

A man sitting on the right hand side of the big boss raised his wine bowl and said. He has clear eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and is dressed as a scholar and scribe, which seems incompatible with other people, but this person is the third master of the Seven Evil Villages, and the name of murder is second only to the second master.

This person used to be a showman, like a lady but was rejected, so he held a grudge, after cultivating the ability to defile the woman, but also destroyed its full door, in order to avoid the court arrested, so he hid in the Seven Evil Village, he because of the study, and the brain is flexible, became the village of the thinker, and then dedicated to the evil things, the most like to persecute the young girls around, lost all conscience.

"Thank you, third brother, do it!"

The second master raised his wine glass, touched it with the third master, and drank it together.

"The third brother has studied, but it's different. ”

Opposite the scholar, a woman with heavy makeup quipped while holding up a mirror to take a selfie. She wears a forehead wipe and a red cape, although she has a delicate figure, petite and charming, she also exudes a ruthless air between her eyebrows.

This person is the fourth master of Qisha Village, with a perverse temperament, and likes to catch some handsome men up the mountain, and when they go to the clouds and rain, they either bite off each other's tongues, or let each other die on their stomachs, which is extremely cruel.

"Hiccup......

A stench came from the side and hit the four masters, who hurriedly covered their noses and frowned, and shouted to a man under her: "Stink!

The man was fat, his clothes were open, his chest hair was exposed, and his face was full of meat, and he swallowed a large elbow into his stomach in three bites, and then poured the jar of wine into his stomach, and burped contentedly, which aroused the disgust of the four masters. But he didn't care, but laughed.

This person is the fifth master of the Seven Evil Villages, and there is a big axe beside him, which is dark red in blood, and I don't know how many innocent people's heads have been cut off.

The sixth master is a dwarf, like a child, but he is insidious and treacherous, and he has a secret weapon in his hand to make him superb, and he likes to pierce people's eyes the most.

As for the Seven Masters, he is a man with purple lips and a face full of abscesses, and his appearance is disgusting just by looking at it, and this person is the best at poisoning.

"Come on, brothers and sisters, drink!"

The second master knocked on the table, held the wine bowl high, invited a few people to drink together, and said with emotion: "It's really happy! It's a pity that the eldest brother can't come back." ”

The third master smiled: "Big brother naturally can't come back, but with big brother here, we can be safe and worry-free." ”

The rest of the people also nodded again and again, tacitly.

......

Generally, no matter what time it is, there will be people standing guard along the mountain road to prevent officers and soldiers from touching the mountain, but Qisha Village seems to be completely worried, there is no defense at all, all the mountain bandits are drinking wine and eating meat in the village, and carnival to their heart's content.

Therefore, Cao Xiaoning went up the mountain and went all the way unimpeded.

Cao Xiaoning has been killing bandits since he was ten years old, and the village, not a hundred or fifty, has been leveled over the years, and he knows the cottage well, and he has never seen such a completely unguarded one, either he has no brains, or he has no fear.

Cao Xiaoning, who was carrying wine, came to the gate of the village, and when he heard the lively sound inside, he knew that he was holding a banquet.

Cao Xiaoning smiled: "It's easy now." ”

As many people there are in the village, Cao Xiaoning is ready to kill as many as he wants, and this time he will not let go of even a horse. Now that the bandits are gathering together for a banquet, it is simply a deliberate attempt to let Cao Xiaoning catch them all, and it will be much easier to kill.

Cao Xiaoning raised the wine jar, took a sip of wine, and then pushed open the door of the village.

......

In the village, the atmosphere is in full swing.

No one even noticed that the gate was pushed open, and a young man with a wine jar stood at the door.

"Hello everyone. ”

Cao Xiaoning greeted them, and they reacted, stopped the wine glasses in their hands, and looked at Cao Xiaoning one after another.

"Where did the little cub come from, he dared to break into the Seven Evil Village!

The five masters slapped the table heavily, shaking the fat on their faces, so one after another the mountain bandits got up and herded angrily, and the sound of drawing knives was continuous, wanting to rush forward and chop Cao Xiaoning into meat sauce.

"Stop!"

The fourth master put down the mirror, got up and snorted, and then looked at Cao Xiaoning's eyes and narrowed, and licked his red lips with his tongue.

She likes to play with handsome men the most, and for so many years, she has never seen such an amazing teenager as Cao Xiaoning, so wouldn't it be a pity to kill him like this?

At this time, the third master asked: "I don't know where Your Excellency is sacred, what are you doing in my village?"

The third master is exquisite, he is the think tank in the village, he saw that Cao Xiaoning was extraordinary, and he was not afraid to see so many of them, and at first glance he was not an ordinary person who accidentally got lost, so it was better to ask clearly.

Cao Xiaoning smiled brightly and said, "I'm here to kill all of you." ”

Everyone in the village was stunned, looking at each other, as if asking each other if they had heard it wrong, and the village was quiet for a while.

"Am I being too quiet?"

Cao Xiaoning repeated loudly: "I said, I'm here to kill you!

"Straight thief, I'm going to chop off his head!"

The five masters were furious, picked up the axe and rushed towards Cao Xiaoning, rushing like a bear sweeping the ground.

The fourth master shouted: "Old Five, spare him a life, stay and die in my bed!"

Everyone watched as the five masters rushed to Cao Xiaoning.

Everyone also saw the five masters running, so they fell to the ground, because the momentum was too big, the body still slid on the ground for a distance, rubbing a long trail of blood.

Between Cao Xiaoning and the five masters, a silver thread as thin as a hair slowly dispersed.

The fifth master of the sixth layer of qi refining died like this, the fifth master himself didn't know how he died, and the rest of the bandits didn't know either, and they all looked at Cao Xiaoning in a daze.

Cao Xiaoning raised the wine jar and took a sip of wine.

The Mayfly Sword moves again.

The lightning passed through the eyebrows of one mountain bandit after another, leaving a line shadow along the way, as if someone was really threading a needle and stringing all the mountain bandits together.

Whether it was the minions or the few masters on the pear wood long table, let alone moving their feet to escape, they didn't even have time to get up, they were passed by and died in place.

The mayfly sword flew back to Cao Xiaoning's side, hovering and shining, and it was only at this moment that those bandits fell on the table one after another, and a series of line shadows in the air began to dissipate.

And this sword, which was as small as a needle, didn't even get a drop of blood on it.

The jar of wine that Cao Xiaoning brought was poured on the apricot yellow flag.

In the end, a fire burned the entire Qisha Village and left the mountain.

......

In the evening of the same day, Cao Xiaoning came to Linmu County.

A small county town cannot be compared with a state city like Anhai City, but it is also full of shops and bustling. After Cao Xiaoning entered the city, he went straight to the Jingtianwei Institute, took out the academy token and was invited in, the orthodox leader of Jingtianwei was not there, and it was the deputy commander who received Cao Xiaoning.

The deputy commander's name is Li Yong, an ordinary middle-aged man, slightly chubby, with a particularly eye-catching rosacea on his face, and a wine jug pinned to his waist.

After he saw Cao Xiaoning, he was a little submissive, smiling and moving tables and chairs, pouring tea and water, and patting Cao Xiaoning's ass.

Jing Tianwei was a force in the local control of the Dachun Dynasty, deterring and restraining the cultivators and sects in all the towns and cities under its jurisdiction, and preventing the cultivators from treating the people as ants and oppressing and mutilating them at will. And when Jing Tianwei can't solve it, it will be reported, and the academy will send students to solve it.

Although the academy is not Jing Tianwei's direct superior, the students of the academy are all dragons and phoenixes in the future, and these local petty officials will be careful to tie in.

Cao Xiaoning took a sip of tea and asked straight to the point, "Is there any trace of the Phantom Clan in the past two days?"

Li Yong immediately helped Cao Xiaoning add tea and replied, "No...... I'm ashamed to say that if it weren't for Lord Lin finding that Phantom clan last time, we wouldn't know who the real culprit was. After Lord Lin was injured and returned, we also searched many times, but he was never found, but there were no more cases of people missing in the towns during this time. ”

Li Yong said with a flattering smile: "I think I must have known that this time Lord Cao would personally go out, so I didn't dare to take the lead again." ”

Cao Xiaoning sighed in his heart, this Li Yong is really a sycophant, he can imagine that when Lin Jin came to Linmu County, he must have been like this.

"Got it. ”

Cao Xiaoning got up and wanted to leave. He didn't have much hope, he just came here to ask as usual, and as for how to find the other party, he had his own way.

Cao Xiaoning walked to the door, but suddenly stopped and asked Li Yong: "By the way, there is a black stone ridge on the outskirts of Linmu County, with a nest of mountain bandits, not far from Linmu County, why don't you Jingtianwei go to get rid of it?"

Jing Tianwei is only set up in the county, and generally speaking, in some remote mountain areas, Jing Tianwei may indeed not take much care of it, after all, if the bandits hide deep and do not commit major crimes, the government will generally not report it, and it will not reach Jing Tianwei's ears.

Even if it reaches their ears, they may not know, after all, it is only a matter of exterminating a few bandits, and the merit is so little, it is thankless, and Lai has to go to the deep mountains and mountains to carry out the task.

This situation was very common in the original Happy Village, and it was precisely because of this that there were so many mountain bandits to Cao Xiaoning to practice.

But the Qisha Village in Heishiling is different, it is not far from the outskirts of the county, and Cao Xiaoning doesn't understand why Jing Tianwei wants to keep them.

"This ......"

Li Yong was hesitant, his face full of bitterness.

Cao Xiaoning asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Yong still looked like he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it.

At this moment, a cold voice came from outside the door: "Sir, let's think more about how to find the Phantom Clan." As for the rest, I won't bother Mr. Lao. ”

A tall man walked in with his hands behind his back and stepped on the sound, Li Yong saw this person, hurriedly stepped aside, bowed his head and said, "Commander." ”

The speaker was the Jingtianwei orthodox leader of Lin Mu County, Liu Wei.

"Well, you don't have to worry about it. ”

Cao Xiaoning looked at Liu Wei and said with a smile: "Because when I came, I had already cleaned them up, leaving no one behind, and burning the village." ”

Liu Wei's hand behind him squeezed his fist, and immediately let go, his face remained silent, and said: "Qisha Village has long been on the Jingtianwei case book, but Jing Tianwei's cases are too many, and there are countless more serious cases in front of Qisha Village, so it has not been his turn, this time Mr. helped to uproot Qisha Village, Liu is really grateful, and I want to thank Mr. for the people around Lin Mucheng." ”

Cao Xiaoning smiled: "You're welcome, you're welcome, it's good that Lord Liu doesn't blame me." ”

Liu Wei narrowed his eyes, and Cao Xiaoning continued with a smile: "Don't blame me for being overstepping." ”

"Why, sir, laughed. Liu Wei also smiled, and then changed the topic: "Mr. Lin found the phantom clan by coincidence last time, and now he has been startled, presumably the phantom clan will hide deeper, I wonder if Mr. can find the other party's traces?"

Cao Xiaoning said: "I have my own way, just go to Jinxi Town." ”

Liu Wei said: "In this case, then I will go with my husband." ”

"No need. Cao Xiaoning said: "I am enough for one person." ”

Liu Wei said: "Then if you find the Phantom Clan, won't it be too late to notify us again?"

"I think I didn't make it clear, I meant whether I found him or killed him. ”

Cao Xiaoning said: "I am enough for one person. ”
