Linxi County Government.
A room that originally belonged to the magistrate.
inside the room.
Several oil lamps were burning.
The mottled lights and shadows made the faces of the embroidered guards flicker in and out.
The atmosphere was a little serious.
The faces of the first hundred households were as sinking as water, and they looked at a corpse on the ground in front of them, their eyebrows slightly furrowed.
The family's surname is Deng. He is a first-class man. He has a cicada-winged sword that makes him extraordinary. He has always been respected by his brothers.
The task of hunting down Linxi County this time was left to him.
But at this moment, his mind was not on the mission at all, he just stared at the corpse on the ground, silent.
After a while.
"Sir, there were no obvious internal or external injuries on Du Bing's body, and there was no sign of poisoning. He died very strangely. His subordinates were incompetent and couldn't find out the cause."
There was an embroidered guard who was good at widow work. After checking Du Bing's body on the ground, he raised his head and said with shame.
These words made Deng Baihu frown.
The people in the embroidery guards who are good at widow work are all masters in the industry, but now they can't find out the cause of Du Bing's death?
How could this satisfy him?
He actually didn't care at all whether Du Bing died or not, he even just clapped his hands and applauded in private.
However, the time of Du Bing's death was too inappropriate and the place of death was too sensitive.
Today's Xiu Yiwei is no longer the former Xiu Yiwei. The third prince in charge of them recently issued an order to fully cooperate with the Dragon Temple.
Seeing that the life-and-death enemies of Xiuyiwei and Longshen Temple were shaking hands and making peace.
Deng Baihu was worried that Du Bing's death would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.
After all, Xiu Yiwei had just appeared in Linxi County, and Du Bing was about to die on the outskirts of the county.
I'm afraid anyone will suspect that this is the work of their embroidery guards!
When the time comes, their team of Tiqi, who are closest to the place where Du Bing died, will inevitably suffer a meal.
Deng Baihu didn't want to take the blame for others.
But the problem is, they can't find anything.
This made Deng Baihu very irritated.
When did a mysterious master appear in the small Linxi County?
Is this person an enemy or a friend?
"Lin An, what do you think?"
After a moment of silence, Deng Baihu glanced at a young Tiqi next to him.
Deputy Baihu Lin An!
Although he is young and his martial arts is only second-rate, he is alert and quite intelligent.
Deng Baihu always relied on him as his right-hand man.
"Sir, I'm afraid there may be some trouble!"
"My subordinates have just received news that Wang Li, the thousand-legged dog among the eight dogs of the Dragon Temple, has also rushed towards Linxi."
"Although Wang Li is not as ferocious as Du Bing, he has a weird temper and is moody. If he knew that Du Bing was dead, he might have preconceived ideas..."
Lin An spoke slowly after careful consideration. At the end of the sentence, a slightly sad look appeared on his face.
Thousand-legged dog Wang Li, like Du Bing, is a top-notch master, with excellent light skills and hidden weapons.
In terms of brutality, he is slightly inferior to Du Bing, but in terms of difficulty, Wang Li is definitely better than Du Bing.
With the few Tiqi who stayed in Linxi County, if they really had a conflict with Wang Li, it would probably be difficult to get any benefits.
"Oh shit!"
Deng Baihu couldn't help but curse.
The other embroidered guards also looked depressed.
What's this called?
The pursuit was originally a simple one, but due to a heavy rain, many clues were cut off, so there was no progress.
Now, before the arrest could be completed, something unexpected happened and Du Bing died.
But it was their embroidery guards who discovered the body.
Now, even if they jumped into the Yellow River, they would not be able to wash themselves out!
That thousand-legged dog Wang Li is not someone easy to talk to.
After all, Xiuyiwei and Dragon Temple have been fighting for so many years. How can the grudge be resolved with just one sentence?
Deng Baihu and the others didn't believe that the moody Wang Li would get along with them just because they cooperated. I'm afraid they were eager to kill their old enemies!
For a time, the atmosphere in the room became increasingly solemn and eerily quiet.
Only the occasional beeping sound of the candle flame was left.
"grown ups……"
Seeing that the atmosphere was really depressing, Lin An opened his mouth and tried to relax.
The words just left his mouth.
Deng Baihu suddenly jumped up, his eyes widened, staring out the window, and shouted: "Who?"
All the embroidered guards were stunned.
Bah!
There was a faint, very light sound outside the window.
This time, everyone heard it.
All the embroidered guards took out their cicada-wing knives from their waists and looked ready to attack.
"Run away... chase!"
Deng Baihu listened for a moment and shouted.
When the voice fell, he tapped his toes, jumped up, opened the window and rushed out.
After a few ups and downs, no one was seen.
The other embroidered guards were not slow to respond and followed suit.
…
It rained continuously and the night was silent.
There is no moon tonight!
Deng Baihu had internal power and could see at night, and saw a figure flying out of the county government office from a distance.
He didn't think much and chased after him.
The person in front of me visited the county government office at night, with ulterior motives, and was obviously planning something evil.
Xiuyiwei's job is to lick blood from the edge of a knife, so how could he let it go?
Not to mention that the target of this person's investigation is still their embroidered clothes guard!
In Deng Baihu's eyes, the situation in Linxi County today shows signs of confusion.
A mysterious master with unknown friends and foes!
Thousand-legged dog Wang Li is about to arrive, or has even arrived!
And the daughter of the Hou family who is very good at escaping.
After you sing, I will appear.
How dare he ignore any side?
The cold rain slapped Deng Baihu's face.
The rain was heavy and almost pouring.
His embroidered flying fish brocade robe was completely soaked and clung to his body wetly, which felt very unpleasant.
The rain falling on his eyelids made his vision gradually blurry.
A sense of irritability came to his mind.
Most people in the world don't like rain battles!
No matter how fast the internal force works, it cannot compare with the speed of falling raindrops.
tread!
The figure in front seemed to have no way to escape, and seemed not to want to escape anymore, so it suddenly stopped.
Deng Baihu paused for a moment.
He shook his head to get rid of the rain on his face. He held the Cicada Wing Knife tightly in his hand, but it was a little tighter.
The blurred vision gradually became clear.
The figure in front of him jumped into his eyes.
In the misty rain and fog, a figure holding an oil-paper umbrella stood there quietly, staring at him.
Although the night was dark and the rain was pouring, it was difficult to see clearly the specific features of the figure, but the figure was tall and erect, so he must not be very old.
Deng Baihu couldn't help tightening the cicada-wing knife in his hand, and his breathing was somewhat rapid.
Rainy night, oil-paper umbrella, boy!
In the arena, the weirder the combination, the more difficult it is to deal with.
Deng Baihu is old in the world and knows this truth well.
The boy holding an umbrella in front looked at him quietly, as if he was one with the pouring rain.
The cicada-wing knife in Deng Baihu's hand tightened and tightened, and tightened and tightened again.
finally!
He seemed unable to bear the strange atmosphere and shouted loudly.
The cold light brought by the cicada-wing knife split the rain in the sky.
The raindrops falling continuously were blocked by the knife curtain.
Deng Baihu felt his breathing became smoother. Without the annoying raindrops, he felt a little more relaxed.
Swish!
The cold light turned into a shooting star, like an antelope hanging its horns, tearing through the night and shrouding it.
Although the enemy or friend of the person in front is unknown, just by exploring Xiu Yi's residence at night, he is the sure way to death!
Since there is a way to kill someone, it doesn’t matter who he is, just strike first!
Their embroidery guards have always been so domineering!
The cicada-wing knife has been unsheathed, and there will be blood when it comes out of the sheath!
Tonight, let the knife in your hand drink its blood, take its head, and cut off Xiu Yi's first battle in Linxi!
Deng Baihu thought so.
