Unprecedented homicides broke out in Xiongshan County.
Compared with the previous situation where at most two or three people died every day, the situation in the past two days can be considered terrifying...
Not only was the Tian family turned upside down, but even the powerful men who came to help from the city were killed.
Everyone in Xiongshan County was panicked.
During the day, there are few people on the streets.
When it gets darker, every household has its doors and windows closed, and the street is as quiet as a ghost street.
If before, the people of Xiongshan County still had great hopes for the Tian and Li families, together with the county soldiers and city masters, to go out of the city to suppress the bandits, now they only have fear.
Obviously, the flower picker was not a person at all, but a group of bandits.
They beheaded the Tian family and killed the masters from Fucheng. They were killing chickens to scare the monkeys.
The two hundred soldiers who came with "Su Zangyuan" were also completely panicked. After learning about the recent events in Xiongshan County, the leaders of these two hundred soldiers were on pins and needles.
This is simply not a place to stay.
But just going back like this is definitely not possible.
The commander racked his brains and finally came up with a solution: there were many bandits in Honghua Mountain, and there were some masters, so there was no chance that they would covet Baihua Mansion, so... he had to quickly lead his troops back, although he encountered a small group of bandits on the way. The bandits made a sneak attack, but he led his men to fight their way out.
...
This commander's escape speed is very fast.
After all, people as powerful as "Su Zangyuan" are dead. If he stays, he will die. If he doesn't escape, what can he do?
However, there was someone else who was faster than him.
By the time the commander came to his senses and made a decision, a figure had already rode out of the gorge in the west of Xiongshan County and headed west.
...
On horseback, Li Xuan felt sleepy.
But after killing "Su Zangyuan" last night, he immediately left Xiongshan County.
He wanted to kill the remaining three "Su Zangyuan disciples" before Baihua Mansion knew what was going on in Xiongshan County.
In his previous life, he had watched some TV and novels.
In those stories, there is always a powerful and smart person who kills the enemy decisively, but then quickly becomes stupid and changes from his original vigorous and resolute action to slow action, causing some of the enemies to escape. Later, the person who ran away would cause problems and bring many accidents and troubles. What's funny is that the person who ran away is really lucky. No matter how he sets up a trap, he can't be killed. Not only does he insult the protagonist, but he may even insult the protagonist's woman. And only in the finale, this person will die.
Li Xuan would never allow this kind of thing to happen.
Therefore, when "Su Zangyuan" checked into the inn and was about to write a letter, he killed "Su Zangyuan". Then after hanging his head, he went to Baihua Mansion without stopping.
...
...
Two days later.
In the foggy Cao Mansion.
A man with a sword fell in a pool of blood.
His body and head were separated, and there was still fear and disbelief in his eyes.
A long time ago, he was an arrogant person, a fearless strong man who could suppress anyone to some extent.
Even Li Anshou, the young master who had moved Baihua Mansion before, was a piece of shit in his eyes.
But now, he is dead.
A tragic death.
His killers even rubbed their boots on his face to remove the mud from their soles brought on by days of traveling.
After the cleaning was completed, he kicked it away randomly to destroy the first murder scene, making it difficult for people to judge how the man with the sword died.
...
Another moment.
Another skinny monkey-like man was completely broken into two pieces.
A tragic death.
...
A little while longer.
The "accident" happened.
The last cold-faced man with dark eyes suddenly heard a "pop" sound coming from outside the hospital.
He flew out and took a look, but saw two corpses.
He listened attentively again, but he heard faint whispers again, as if someone was saying something like, "The prefect wants him to die at the third watch, how can he live until the fifth watch?"
The cold-faced man looked at the corpse, suddenly drew his sword, and ran out in panic.
Before he ran very far, his mind suddenly changed and he made a decision.
He did not escape immediately, but quickly came to Cao Wen's house nearby, broke in directly, and with a strike like the wind, he quickly grabbed Cao Wen who was sleeping in a daze.
He wants to use Cao Wen as a talisman to escape from here.
Secret Martial Warriors have an extreme temperament, especially when they find themselves in crisis, they will do unbelievable things.
His rationality is a little better than Lin Jieniu's, but not much better.
However, the "unexpected accident" happened again.
That hand failed to catch Cao Wen, because an invisible ripple flashed through and cut open the fingers of the cold-faced man.
The cold-faced man was horrified and no longer cared about arresting Cao Wen.
Cao Wen shouted "Help" and ran out of the bedroom.
Today's Cao Mansion is even more heavily guarded than the previous General Mansion.
Inside the mansion, there are a group of guards maintained by the Cao family, and outside the mansion, there are soldiers patrolling on a daily basis.
Mr. Cao's cry for help directly alerted the guards.
Suddenly...guards came from all directions.
The cold-faced man wanted to escape, but no matter where he fled, he was always intercepted by a thread. He could vaguely see someone in the mist, but he couldn't keep up with that person's speed.
After a while, the cold-faced man who was dragged away was surrounded by guards and soldiers.
The cold-faced man beheaded wildly, but after all, he was made of flesh and blood. After killing more than ten people and injuring another ten more, he was finally shot by random arrows and turned into a hedgehog.
But the secret martial artist has a strong vitality, and despite this, he is not completely dead yet. Although he couldn't move, he still had a breath left.
After a while, Cao Shuda arrived. He already knew about the deaths of the other two secret martial artists, and also learned about the situation from his son.
He frowned and thought quickly.
Suddenly, he put his hands behind his back, made a hidden movement with his fingers, and at the same time shouted loudly: "What are you doing? This is Mr. Su's disciple, how can you do this? Why don't you save people!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a master from the Cao Mansion behind him rushed towards the cold-faced man who was still lingering and slashed his head with a knife.
The head flew up and Gululu rolled to the ground.
The cold-faced man still looked unbelievable.
After the master of the Cao Mansion finished killing the people, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Cao Shuda. He said emotionally: "Prefect, this is a fight to kill my relatives. I sneaked into the manor just to kill them. Now the great revenge has finally been avenged. It's just that. ...I have failed to live up to the magistrate’s kindness in knowing me.”
Cao Shuda was angry and emotional at the same time, and then sent someone to put this "dead soldier he secretly trained" into prison, and wait until Mr. Su comes back to be punished.
Just kidding, they all attacked his son and killed all his people, and only one of them died.
How could he keep such a lonely mad dog?
Besides that, he... also had to kill.
...
...
High above, in the mist, Li Xuan watched all this silently, thinking to himself: 'The deeper a secret martial artist sinks, the easier it is to deceive...'
He killed two but kept one in order to stimulate this "one" and then make a big fuss in Cao Mansion.
Of course, if this person can still remain calm, then he will use illusions to continue to stimulate him until the person goes crazy.
Li Xuan vaguely felt that the relationship between Cao Shuda and Mr. Su was more akin to mutual use rather than close relatives.
But he still needs to test this.
If Cao Shuda and Mr. Su were completely from the same family, that person would not have taken action against the Cao Mansion today, but would have been suspicious. Cao Shuda would also not have killed this disciple of Mr. Su.
But in fact, this man is dead.
Cao Shuda killed him.
To a certain extent, this is considered as submitting a "certificate of nomination."
Li Xuan knew it well.
Cao Shuda also knew it well.
When two of Mr. Su's three disciples died, but one was still alive, he had already made a guess.
Therefore, after everyone dispersed, Cao Shuda still stood in the small courtyard with his hands behind his hands.
Suddenly, he bowed his hands, bowed deeply to the high place, and said respectfully: "Sir, since you are here, would you like to show up to meet Cao?
Cao always likes to make friends. If Mr. Cao comes, he will treat him as a distinguished guest and sweep the couch to welcome him. "
If you kill two and leave one, doesn't it just depend on his attitude?
He, Cao Shuda, is not stupid.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, a "white-haired illusion dummy" appeared in front of Cao Dashu.
Cao Dashu's eyelids twitched and he asked respectfully: "What do you call me sir?"
Li Xuan controlled the "white-haired illusion dummy" and said in a loud voice: "My surname is also Su."
The word "ye" really made Cao Dashu stunned for a moment.
His eyes rolled rapidly, and then he asked with a smile: "That's a coincidence. There is a gentleman in my house who has the same surname as you."
Li Xuan said coldly: "He is dead."
The air suddenly became quiet.
Cao Dashu was stunned for several breaths, but he quickly bowed again and said to Li Xuan: "No, he is not dead."
After that, he said respectfully: "Cao has met Mr. Su."
