Chapter 138 Murder
In Jinxiufang, Han Zheng changed his seat to the top floor to avoid being disturbed.
It would be right to give the task of ordering dishes to a foodie like Ye Caiyun.
"Brother Ye, congratulations on your promotion to team leader."
Han Zheng raised his head and toasted Ye Liuyun.
At this time, Ye Liuyun had already put on the golden-patterned black armor, and it was obvious that he had accumulated enough merit points.
"My speed is nothing compared to Brother Han and Brother Su."
Ye Liuyun was serious most of the time, but at this time, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He had a conflict with the direct line of the Ye family, so he joined the Demon-Slaying Division in anger.
At this time, he was promoted to team leader, which was considered a success, and he could breathe a sigh of relief even if he returned to the Ye family.
In the Demon-Slaying Division, only those who reached the team leader were considered real officials, which was different from other ordinary black-armored guards.
"By the way, Brother Ye, how many merit points did you get this time? I saw many people exchanged for things, and it seems that they are very generous."
Ye Liuyun said: "I killed two blood wolf bandits and got 100 merit points, and then the overall task reward is 100.
This time, anyone who goes will get at least 100 merit points. The government is really generous."
Ye Caiyun stuffed her cheeks so that they were round, and chewed quickly with her small mouth, just like a little hamster.
Hearing this, she said with some dissatisfaction: "If I had known that there would be so many merit points, I would have gone too, but Lord Wen did not choose me, maybe because he disliked my weak strength."
Ye Liuyun said solemnly: "Lord Wen was right not to choose you. Encircling and suppressing the Blood Wolf Bandits is no joke.
I can still protect you in a group mission, but facing the Blood Wolf Bandits alone, you are definitely not the opponent of that gang of thugs.
Seventeen of us died in this mission. The life-and-death fight is no joke."
Ye Caiyun also knew that what Ye Liuyun said made sense, and did not refute it. She just snorted and said: "I know, why are you so fierce?"
Su Wuming ate his meal in silence while listening to their conversation very seriously.
Ye Liuyun was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and he was usually a little serious.
Su Wuming was really taciturn. If no one talked to him, he might really not say a word.
In fact, Su Wuming was not like this at the beginning.
Since he knew that he was born unlucky, he rarely contacted people for fear of implicating others.
After others knew about Su Wuming, they also subconsciously distanced themselves from him.
This also led to Su Wuming being silent for a long time except for a few words when he was on a mission in the Demon Slayer Division, which led to his current personality.
"Brother Su, there is actually a question I have been curious about for a long time. Is there really no solution to your bad luck?"
Han Zheng looked at Su Wuming.
Others would feel a little offensive when they asked about this kind of thing.
But the last time Han Zheng and Su Wuming teamed up to fight against Scorpion Mei Niang, when it came to whether to accept their fate or not, Su Wuming had already regarded Han Zheng as a close friend at that time and didn't care.
"I can't say there is absolutely no chance, but at least there is no chance for the time being."
Su Wuming smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Chen Zhenfu has personally seen my situation. He said that I am not unlucky, but my fate has been forcibly reversed.
I should have been born with excellent talents and smooth sailing, but my mother should have encountered some situations before giving birth to me, which were related to luck, causing a part of my fate to be missing.
So my luck is not as good as that of ordinary people, who should have been smooth sailing. I don't have bad luck, but I don't have a bit of good luck.
There are 10,000 possibilities for one thing, even if 9,999 of them are good, but I always encounter the bad one.
It's about luck, even Chen Zhenfu can't solve it, maybe only the strange man in the Beijing Tianjian Division can know how to solve it.
I also wanted to explore the past of my parents, but the family was destroyed and there was no trace of it."
After listening to what Su Wuming said, Ye Liuyun and others sighed.
Su Wuming was supposed to be a genius, but now he is an unlucky guy, and he is the kind that cannot be solved.
Yang Tianqi even felt that Su Wuming was a little pitiful.
He was not born well, but at least he was not like Su Wuming, who was oppressed by fate and could not raise his head.
If someone else was replaced by Su Wuming, he would probably have collapsed long ago.
Han Zheng showed a thoughtful look at this time.
After listening to what Su Wuming said, why did Han Zheng feel familiar?
He was not unlucky, but he had no good luck.
Su Wuming's current situation was too similar to the situation after he sacrificed his good luck to the Taotie Furnace.
Could it be that Su Wuming also had a Taotie Furnace?
But it was impossible. Su Wuming's skills were all from the Demon Slayer Division, which was clearly verifiable.
Han Zheng did not ask more questions, and the few people began to chat about the entire Shannan Dao Jianghu.
Among the few people, Ye Liuyun was born in a noble family. He understood the Shannan Dao Jianghu the best and even knew a lot of secrets. He told everyone many secrets.
For example, the Xiling Pang family once had a generation without a direct male heir. The head of the family said that whoever gave birth to a male heir would be directly appointed as the heir of the head of the family. As a result, a concubine dared to cheat on the head of the family.
In the end, it was not known whether the male heir was from the Pang family.
There was also a genius disciple of the Cangshan Sword Sect who was invincible in the sect and claimed to be the first of the young generation. As a result, he went to the capital and had his leg broken as soon as he arrived. He went crazy.
There are countless talented people in the world. For some real strong men, genius is just a threshold to see them.
After three rounds of wine, several people cleared the table of dishes and prepared to leave.
It was already midnight, but Kaiping Prefecture still seemed bustling and prosperous, and there were still many people on the street.
Just as Han Zheng and his friends walked out of the gate of Jinxiufang, they saw a reserve black armor guard with no patterns on his black armor hurriedly running towards the Demon Slayer Division.
Seeing Han Zheng and others, the black armor guard's eyes suddenly lit up and hurried over to salute.
"Some adults are in trouble! A brother was accidentally killed while patrolling the streets!"
For a reserve black armor guard like him, Han Zheng and other team leaders wearing gold-patterned black armor must be adults to him.
Hearing this, Han Zheng and others looked at each other, all showing a solemn look.
This is a big deal!
The death of a black armor guard is not a big deal, but the death of a black armor guard in Kaiping Prefecture is a big deal.
As the capital of Shannan Dao, where the headquarters of Shannan Dao Demon Slayer Division is located, someone dared to kill the Xuanjia Guards of the Demon Slayer Division in the street. It was simply lawless!
"Let's go! Let's take a look!"
Han Zheng and others hurriedly asked the reserve Xuanjia Guard to lead the way.
"Do you know who did it?"
The reserve Xuanjia Guard shook his head and said, "I don't know who did it, and I'm not even sure whether it was a warrior or a demon.
Although we wiped out the Danyang Sect under the leadership of Lord Han last time and found some of the missing people in Kaiping Prefecture, there are still half of them that can't be matched.
So the Lord above asked us to step up our patrols, day and night.
The streets that Brother Zhang and I patrolled were next to each other. We agreed to drink together after the patrol, but he didn't come.
I went to the street he patrolled to look for him, and I happened to hear a scream. As a result, I went over and saw that Brother Zhang had been killed, and there was a body on the ground!"
"You came directly to report the news, and the body was left there?"
Han Zheng suddenly asked.
The reserve Xuanjia Guard said quickly: "Of course not, I asked the patrol constable to call the brothers from another street to guard, and then I came to report the news."
Han Zheng nodded gently.
The Xuanjia Guards in the reserve camp of the Demon Slayer Division are also of good quality.
They did not panic and ignore the scene, and ran to report the news.
When they arrived at the scene of the crime, there were two more Xuanjia Guards guarding there. It should be the Xuanjia Guards patrolling nearby who heard the news and came to guard together.
Han Zheng and others carefully checked the two bodies and the surrounding environment.
This is the end of an alley, which is a dead end. It is not a main road, so it is a little dark and rarely visited.
The dead man is a scholar in his thirties, who still smells of alcohol. He should have just finished drinking with someone and was about to go home.
There was only a tiny red dot on his neck artery, but the blood in his body had been drained, and the whole person was like a mummy.
And the Xuanjia Guard of the Demon Slayer Division had only one wound on his body, and his throat was cut by a sword.
Ye Liuyun had the most experience in dealing with such things. After checking, he frowned and said, "Strange, the scholar seemed to have done it. Apart from some warriors who practiced evil methods, only demons were extremely eager for blood.
But this Xuanjia Guard was killed by a sword. The person who attacked was extremely powerful, and the speed of the sword was extremely fast. Even the wound still had an extreme sharpness that had not dissipated.
So the person who attacked might be a thug who practiced evil methods, or a demon who practiced swordsmanship."
