Chapter 75 74 Closing the Net

Chapter 75 74. Closing the net

In the morning, the golden sunlight fell from the sky.

Li Yuan sat in the proprietress's carriage, drinking fine wine, listening to the wheels turning, and leisurely returned to the inner city.

Entering the city was smooth, as if nothing had happened.

Li Yuan came to his family courtyard, and Lady Yan glanced at him, then looked like a bullied young wife, and said angrily: "You have no conscience, do you dislike me?"

"I"

Lady Yan said, and then she burst into tears: "At night, I only know how to go out with Sister Xue to fool around, wuwuwu."

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment and said: "What's wrong?"

Lady Yan said: "You told me that it was official business, but the adults outside this morning said that you didn't have any official business at all. You just went out to wander around and play with women. Roar, you still smell of alcohol! ! Wuwuwu, I'm not going to live anymore"

After that, she twisted her hips, and her delicate face was crying.

Li Yuan understood immediately. Sure enough, Senior Brother Ren's empty carriage seemed to have been discovered, and the sect had sent someone to investigate this morning. This investigation should not be aimed only at him.

Unfortunately, he and Lady Yan had prepared for it and had planned the performance. He returned early and deliberately drank some wine.

Lady Yan cried and made a fuss, shouting, "Get out! Get out!"

As she said that, she grabbed the cup in her hand and threw it fiercely in front of Li Yuan, smashing it to pieces with a "bang".

The boss lady was also a smart person. She hurried forward and said angrily: "Don't be angry, sister. My husband just rarely goes out to play. My husband loves me so much, can't I feel sorry for my husband's hard work? How can I bear to blame my husband?"

"Fox spirit! Slutty fox! How dare you take my husband out to fool around!" Lady Yan was directly brought into the play by the boss lady's words. She kicked her legs on the ground, crying and cursing, and then she was not satisfied, so she ran to the side to get a broom, raised the broom and hit the boss lady.

But this slap only went halfway, and was caught by Li Yuan.

"Enough!"

"Enough, not enough!"

"Enough! Enough!!"

"You are mean to me, woo woo woo"

There was a quarrel in this room.

Outside the house, the wall has ears.

A figure was quietly listening to everything in the room. This was a woman in a black robe with white edges. Her eyes seemed soft, but she was hiding a knife. Her cheeks were slightly sunken, showing a bit of cruel and mean appearance.

This is Elder Liu, who is in charge of the inner city's internal affairs.

The inner city disciples are missing, and there are empty carriages on the road. As the one in charge of the inner city, she should naturally investigate the inner city disciples who went out last night.

Among these disciples, Li Yuan, Zhao Chunxin, and two other disciples have recently had conflicts with the disciple surnamed Ren.

Li Yuan and Zhao Chunxin are in a dispute over the quota for patrolling the market. This matter has actually been settled with Li Yu's intervention.

The other two disciples, one seems to have had a quarrel while buying on the black market, and the other has some old grudges.

And these four were not in the inner city last night.

Elder Liu went directly to these four families to inquire one by one, and then sent people to hide outside and listen quietly.

This is not that she suspected that it was done by the inner disciples, but just a symbolic investigation.

After all, this kind of thing, after thinking about it, it can only be done by the remnants of the Wei family.

At this time, after hearing the quarrel, Elder Liu didn't want to investigate Li Yuan anymore.

Objectively, there is nothing to investigate. How can a ninth-rank person kill an eighth-rank person?

Subjectively, it is normal for Li Yuan to go out and find women without telling his original wife after his status was promoted. This morning, I went to ask Yan Yu, and Yan Yu actually thought that her husband was out on business. I mentioned this and caused trouble for him.

Oh, who asked this kid to marry a wife, and marry two? It's good to suffer a little.

Elder Liu was not interested in family matters and walked away directly.

In the courtyard, Madam Yan was still arguing, making a mess.

Li Yuan also cooperated patiently and coaxed her for a long time before she calmed down.

At night, the couple slept in the same bed. They quarreled during the day and reconciled at night. They quarreled in front of outsiders, and laughed and laughed on the bed, which was a happy scene.

The efficiency of the Blood Knife Sect was very high. The next day, the bodies of Senior Brother Ren and the imperial hand were turned out from the reed marsh and placed horizontally on the straw mat.

"He cut his throat with a sword, and his mouth cracked. He must be a powerful character, at least as strong as Fang Jianlong."

"Could it be a knife?"

"What do you mean? Are you suspecting your own family?"

"Aren't there many people in the Sun family who use knives? This could also be the case that the Sun family came to Yinxi to kill people quietly under the name of the remnants of the Wei family."

Tie Sha, wearing a white robe, stood in the long grass, quietly listening to the discussion of the disciples behind him.

His eyes were quietly staring at the reed marsh in the distance, as if he was imagining the murder scene. After a long time, he touched the beard on his cheek and suddenly said coldly: "It's either the Wei family or the Sun family!

When killing people in the dark and windy night, go and talk to other inner disciples. In the future, the inner city will be under a night ban. Either go back to the city early or don't go back to the city!"

He made a direct judgment, and then said coldly: "I don't want anyone to be suspicious of their fellow disciples because of this matter. If I hear such news, I will never let them off easily."

"Yes!"

"Yes, Sect Master!"

A group of disciples responded respectfully in awe.

After the crowd dispersed, Tiesha sat back in the Blood Rage Hall, crossing his legs, and behind him an old man with silver hair and a youthful face walked out.

This old man was none other than Elder Ding.

Elder Ding asked, "Do you really think this was done by the remnants of the Wei family or the Sun family?"

Tie Sha laughed, "What else? Are you suspicious and fighting among yourselves?"

Old Ding also laughed, "I'm not doubting you, but after destroying the Wei family last time, my leisure time was broken, and I couldn't feel at peace, so I thought of chatting with you."

Tie Sha said, "It can only be the Wei family and the Sun family."

Old Ding said, "What if it's not?"

Tie Sha laughed, "Isn't that even better? This shows that my Blood Blade Sect is full of talents.

Damn it, he was able to kill that eighth-rank disciple with one blow, a talent, a real talent. I like him!

If I really find any clues today, I might not be able to help him clean up his ass, hahaha."

After that, the sect leader actually laughed.

Old Ding also smiled. He knew that Tie Sha was rough on the outside but delicate on the inside, and he had a lot of ideas in his heart, so he came here to retire.

Although there are some disasters in this place, it is a corner after all, and it is already very safe.

Places like Yujing are not places for people to stay.

Mortals are ignorant, and only those who have seen disasters will know what terror and despair are.

But strangely, it didn't seem to be like this in the past. Maybe it was the end of the dynasty, and there were always natural disasters?

A few days later.

The matter of the inner disciple surnamed Ren was calm. The inner city was under night curfew, and the streets were also under much martial law.

No one suspected Li Yuan anymore, but Zhao Chunxin was suspected several times. However, since the sect leader had determined the nature, this suspicion could only die in the womb, and no one would gossip about it anymore.

Time passed day by day.

A few days later.

A servant from Elder Tian's family came to inform Li Yuan to go to the ice cellar to get meat.

The monster meat in the meat field matures every six months, and when it matures, it is frozen in the ice cellar, and then distributed to the inner disciples every month.

The raw meat in the field is extremely strange, and even a little creepy.

After Li Yuan took the meat, he looked at it carefully and found that it was not much different from the meat he bought in the black market before. Instead, it looked fresher.

After returning home with the meat, Madam Yan asked Aunt Wang and two maids to pickle the meat. After working for most of the day, the whole yard was filled with the smell of pickled meat, and the meat was hung up with iron hooks and placed under the eaves to float in the wind.

Li Yuan saw that everyone was almost done and Madam Yan had taken a break, so he walked over and asked, "Sister Yan, how is your practice going?"

"Well, I can't practice it." Madam Yan didn't feel too disappointed. She thought it through.

Li Yuan said: "Eat some monster meat and try again later."

"I won't waste monster meat, I'll give it all to you."

"Just try it if I tell you to. The blood and flesh power of monster meat is better than ordinary meat. Maybe you can succeed after being stimulated?"

"But you..."

"It doesn't matter to me. This meat is enough for me to eat."

"Okay then." Lady Yan didn't refuse again. After all, she also hoped to cultivate the method and keep up with her husband.

Time flies, and another month has passed in the blink of an eye.

The remnants of the Wei family really went out, and several assassinations were extremely accurate, as if someone was providing them with information.

The "reform" of the Blood Knife Sect could not be carried out for the time being because of this reason.

Li Yuan stayed in the inner city to eat meat and practice.

Sure enough, he began to slowly feel the "blood and flesh power" that Senior Sister Zhao said.

The shadow blood in his body always seemed to lack the stimulation of some kind of power, and could not reach a certain height, could not spread throughout the body, let alone cultivate shadow bones.

At noon, he changed into a three-piece suit and went to the black market, but he didn't see anyone selling eighth-grade meat.

July, summer, finally arrived.

The sultry clouds completely dissipated with a sudden rain.

The sunset left a dazzling red in the puddles.

Suddenly, the quiet inner city suddenly became agitated, and figures gathered in the Blood Rage Hall.

Li Yuan also received the order and went quickly to the hall.

Before he entered the hall, he heard the heart-wrenching and shrill cry of a woman.

"Gong Shuyang, you lied to me! You lied to me!!!"

"Gong Shuyang!!!"

Li Yuan stepped over the threshold and saw that Zhao Chunxin had arrived, so he walked to her side and then glanced at the woman with disheveled hair in the hall.

He vaguely recognized her appearance. This woman was the third lady of the Wei family whom he had met before. At that time, Hong Gang and Lan Gang had said that they would reward her to the great enemy of the Wei family.

Li Yuan asked softly, "Sister, what happened?"

Zhao Chunxin lowered her voice and said, "It seems that Gong Shuyang deceived us and got the list of the remnants of the Wei family. Now, the leader asked us to close the net."

Li Yuan was speechless and said, "How can this be deceived?"

Zhao Chunxin thought, "How else can we deceive her? We can deceive her that we are in the same group, and then..."

Suddenly, she thought of the several assassinations of the remnants of the Wei family some time ago, and lowered her voice again, saying hoarsely, "Don't ask, this matter cannot be elaborated, and we can't make random guesses. The main task now is to catch all the remnants in one fell swoop."

Li Yuan understood it as soon as he heard it.

It's nothing more than that Gong Shuyang deceived the third lady of the Wei family, saying that he was actually a hidden man of the Wei family, and then provided information several times to help the remnants of the Wei family kill some disciples of the Blood Knife Sect, and then slowly deceived the third lady of the Wei family to get the list of "remnants of the Wei family".

Information can be provided. If there is no support from the big figures of the Blood Knife Sect, what will Gong Shuyang do?

The third young lady was still shouting, her voice hoarse.

"Gong Shuyang, okay, you lied to me, but you also..."

Before he finished speaking, the thin and ruthless man suddenly stood up, raised his hand and knocked the third lady unconscious, then sneered and said "noisy".

After that, Gong Shuyang returned to his position, with a hint of gloom and sigh in his eyes that no one noticed.
