At night, near the Wangxiang Restaurant in Jiazhou City, there was no one in the alleys or streets. Even the lame old man who was always seen in the night watch was nowhere to be found.
What's even more strange is that, let alone people, even the most common sounds of birds and insects at night have disappeared without a trace at this moment, which makes people feel that there is something wrong. Some vendors who usually quietly set up stalls after closing seemed to have sensed something was wrong, so none of them showed up.
In the alley in the backyard of Wangxiang Restaurant, there are about a dozen men in night clothes standing quietly at this moment. These people all hold their breaths and blend in with the dark night, which makes ordinary people feel completely uncomfortable. Considering their existence, these ten or so people would probably be pretty good in terms of mortal skills.
Judging from where these dozen people were standing, they formed a circle and seemed to be protecting someone. In the center of their circle, sitting on the ground was a man whose face could not be seen, exuding an aura of dismay. Feeling the aura of fear, it can be seen that this person may be a bit unusual. But why do these people appear in this place at this time? It's really confusing.
After some time passed, although they were still waiting in place, they could see that some of them were already showing impatient looks. Surprisingly, one of them bent down slightly and asked in a low voice to the man sitting on the ground: " Master Zhang Xian, isn’t it time yet? It’s almost the time of ugliness. Taking action at the time of ugliness is almost the standard of action for some people in the world. It is also the time when targets are most lax. If it passes this time, the effect may not be as good."
The so-called "Master Zhang Xian" didn't take him seriously at all. He didn't even raise his head and had no intention of answering.
Even though a few men in black were a little angry, they had never seen their boss speak in such a condescending manner, but this sage didn't take their boss seriously at all, which was simply an insult.
However, the man just stretched out his hand to stop them. He glared at these people, and then they nodded and returned to their original place. It seemed that among these people, the previous man The man who asked had the highest status and seemed to have won the hearts of the dozen or so people.
However, although he stopped these subordinates, the unknown fire in his heart was still suppressed. With his character, when would he succumb to others? Zhao Xin spent a lot of money to support them and did a lot of bad things over the years, but this kind of life was in line with their character. He would kill when it was time to kill. Once he succeeded, the reward would be enough for them to squander it for several months. Why not? Rather than do it. But yesterday he learned that Zhao Xin had been keeping a worshiper behind his back, and this worshiper was a cultivator. When he went to pick up this man, he saw that he used an unknown skill that could kill him from a distance. Killing several wild wolves that suddenly appeared; what's more, he was extremely dissatisfied and when he went to this man's residence in the forest, he deliberately concealed his figure. Who would have expected that he would be directly killed by this man? He noticed and activated an unknown swarm of flying insects to attack him. If he hadn't mentioned the name of the head of the Zhao family, he might have been buried in the forest that day. On the way back, they were surrounded by wild wolves. Before he could take action, he saw the man killing the wolves from the air calmly and calmly, which made him tremble with fear.
In the eyes of people like them, cultivators are an unpredictable group of people. In their impression, cultivators who have practiced to the limit are almost comparable to gods, and even those who have just started Cultivators are beyond the reach of ordinary people like them. Although the salary for one attack on that person was almost as much as the income of a group of them for several years, he did not have much objection because it was a fact that they did not have that ability. To blame, I can only blame myself for not being born with the talent to practice Taoism.
Suddenly, the man raised his head, and everyone also raised their heads, and saw a group of strange-looking flying insects flying silently out of the wall and burrowing into one of the small pots around the man's waist. among.
"It's done. All the guards in the mansion have been defeated by the sleepy bugs I raised. You can go in and have a look. If there are still strong enemies that you can't resist, I will take action then." He said expressionlessly. said.
The man in the lead was not unexpected, but when he thought that a group of guards who might be better in martial arts could be manipulated by this man, he felt a little ashamed, but of course he still had to do business at the moment, so he He bowed his hands to the man and climbed over the wall with his men.
As soon as they went inside the courtyard wall, everyone suddenly realized that the mansion was indeed eerily quiet, and there were no wandering guards at all. It seemed that they were really knocked down by the insect swarm of Master Zhang. One man had to sigh softly: "Oh, look at this man, he can knock down so many guards with just a few moves, and his income at one time is higher than the income of several of us in several years." , Sigh, I really envy you."
Of course the leading man thought so too, but he couldn't say that in front of his subordinates. He nodded casually and took out a blueprint. It was Zhao Xin who spent a lot of money to bribe one of the people in this mansion before he came. The map that the servants were able to draw not only marked the condition of the entire mansion, but also pointed out the location where Wang Xianzhi's authentic works were stored. So he raised his head and determined the direction, then jumped onto the beam with his men and moved towards the target house quietly. Although Immortal Zhang had already knocked down all the guards in the mansion, they still had to be careful due to professional habits. There was no guarantee that there would be some masters who would not be affected.
And just when these ten people sneaked into the mansion, some martial arts people with good skills were lurking in several nearby alleys or on several nearby rooftops. They watched quietly as the dozen figures sneaked into the Wangxiang Restaurant's mansion, but did not make any move because they knew it would be unwise to take action now. It's better to use these guys to explore the road. After they take out the treasure from the mansion, it won't be too late to kill people and seize the treasure. The only person who can make them a little afraid is the cultivator who can't see the depth. Among these From a human perspective, that guy can only pretend to be a ghost at best, and he should be an existence not worth mentioning.
These people all come from different states and counties, and their sects or places are completely different, but they all have one thing in common at this moment, that is, they were hired to seize the authentic work of Wang Xian. From this, it can be seen that Jiannan There are probably people in the Tao who want to please Li Yuan.
However, after these people came to Jiazhou in batches during this period, when they discovered that there were dozens of well-trained guards stationed in Wangxiang Restaurant, they suddenly felt that it was a bit tricky, and they all adopted a wait-and-see attitude. But just today, there was a group of people who dared to go directly to get the treasure. Just when they wanted to see those people's jokes, something even more amazing happened. They discovered that there was a cultivator among this group of people! So everyone started thinking about killing people and seizing the treasure after this group of people succeeded, but there was only one way at the moment.
But at this moment, in front of these groups of people, several men suddenly appeared out of thin air at different locations, exuding dangerous auras all over their bodies, making them unable to move.
"Go, or stay, it's your choice." An emotionless voice spoke simultaneously from different people in different places.
