MTL - Beiyin Great Sage-Chapter 60 calm
Chapter 60 Quiet
In this season, the leaves of the giant sycamore tree are fiery red, and the breeze blows like a sea of fire, which is beautiful.
Past.
Such a view is worth stopping to watch, but the chaos that has spread to the inner city for more than a month has long left people no time to take care of the beautiful scenery in front of them.
The fiery red leaves make people feel more anxious.
Just like everyone outside the inn at this time.
"The disappearance of shopkeeper Xue has nothing to do with us?"
"Yes! Besides, he is just missing, and there is no evidence to prove that he is dead. What if he forgets to come back after going out for a while?"
"Just because one sentence is suspicious, we will be sent back. I refuse to accept it!"
"Yes, yes!"
"..."
The noise and resistance of the crowd not only attracted the attention of nearby passers-by, but also made it more and more difficult for the patrol team to suppress.
"What are you doing!"
Leader Ren raised his voice and shouted:
"Do you want to rebel?"
He separated from the patrol team and strode forward, pulled out the black iron heavy mace from his waist and threw it at the crowd without any scruples, and shouted angrily:
"Be honest with me, whoever wants to die, come here!"
The heavy mace fell on his body, and his skin was torn apart immediately. For a while, everyone screamed and shrank to a corner alone.
Everyone was silent.
But no one dared to really resist.
In Huojiabao, the patrol team affiliated to Huojia is the largest law enforcement agency. In the inner city, several major forces must be honest.
What's more, the one who did it is a seventh-rank master.
"Everyone stand up for me!"
Leader Ren opened his eyes wide, unable to hide his anger.
He and shopkeeper Xue have been friends for decades, and it is no problem to say that they are life and death friends. How can he not be angry if his friend disappears for no reason.
Although he has been missing for several days, based on time calculations, there is a high probability that it will be the day after Dong Cheng was born.
People of the day…
are all suspected!
This time is different from the accident of the little Er Dongcheng, he was really angry, and vowed to find the murderer for his friend and avenge him.
As for people still alive?
This possibility is very slim!
Even if the shopkeeper Xue can abandon the inn business, can he still not deal with his son's affairs?
"Tou Ren." In the crowd, a person approached and quietly handed over a money bag:
"I'm in charge of raising the white-maned horses of Kane's family in the inner city and in the outer city. I've been staying in the inn for some business these days, and I've never gone out in disorder."
"I hope Chief Ren will investigate clearly."
"The Kane family." Chief Ren's complexion changed slightly, he looked at the money bag in front of him, took a deep breath, and put it in his arms:
"Got it, let's go!"
It is natural to avenge your friends, but you cannot add yourself.
"Yes, yes." The other party nodded again and again, bowed and retreated outward:
"Rentou has time to go to the outer city, the villain must treat him well, I... I will take my leave first, I will take my leave first."
"My lord." Two more people came out and handed over the money bag:
"We belong to the Qian family. We just checked into the inn a few days ago, and we have been honest and honest."
"The Qian family." Leader Ren's eyes flickered, but this time he didn't accept the money, so he waved his hand directly:
"let's go!"
"Yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Ren!"
Next, a few more people came out. They were either related to the big families in the inner city, or they were dependents of the big forces in the outer city.
Without exception, they all accommodated.
Zhou Jia pursed his lips. He is also a member of the Fish and Dragon Society, but with his status as the deputy supervisor of the mine, he might not have that much face.
and…
Leader Ren looked over from time to time, obviously remembering him as the 'suspect' handpicked by Shopkeeper Xue.
Not to mention others.
The sisters of the Jiao family leaned close to Sister Cao, their faces were pale, and their bodies were tense. They came from the Barony, and they had no relatives or reasons here.
Sister Cao, it doesn’t work either.
"Third Elder!"
At this moment, Zhou Jia's eyes lit up, he hurried forward two steps, and shouted at a passing carriage:
"The fish and dragons will meet Zhou Jia, and I have met the third elder!"
"Well..." The curtain of the carriage that was about to be put down was lifted again, revealing a delicate and charming cheek, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be mixed with water, crystal clear:
"Zhou Jia?"
"Exactly." Zhou Jia nodded heavily.
He felt a little familiar when he saw the carriage just now, and he confirmed it when Mrs. Wang heard the movement and opened the curtain. The carriage is a rare thing here.
At the moment, he said:
"The subordinate was recommended by Deacon Wei, and is now the deputy supervisor of the mine."
"Oh!" Mrs. Wang raised her eyebrows slightly:
"I remembered, you are the lucky star that Wei Zhixing said, what's going on?"
As he spoke, he scanned the field.
"That's it." Zhou Jia bowed:
"The manager of the inn is missing. Leader Ren suspects that the murderer is hiding among us, so he intends to take him back and investigate carefully."
"The treasurer of Qingfengju." Mrs. Wang covered her mouth and smiled lightly, her smile was like a flower:
"He disappeared, what does it have to do with you? How can you be able to move a person who is in this position?"
"Do you think so, Chief Ren?"
"What Mrs. Wang said is true." Chief Ren bowed his head.
Facing this charming and beautiful lady, he subconsciously took two steps back. It seemed that he was extremely afraid, and even his voice was a little weaker.
Without waiting for the other party to speak, he said directly:
"This brother Zhou is fine, you can leave."
"There are three girls." Mrs. Wang nodded, then stretched out her hand and pointed to the three girls who deliberately moved to Zhou Jia's side, and said with a smile:
"A few girls, what can you do?"
"Yes, yes." Leader Ren repeatedly said yes.
"That's right." Mrs. Wang nodded, and was about to put down the car curtain when she looked at Zhou Jia again:
"It's not very peaceful in the society recently. Don't stay in the inner city all the time. It's time to go back and have a look. After all, you are also a member of the Fish and Dragon Society."
"Yes." Zhou Jia should be:
"The subordinate understands."
"Um."
The carriage curtain was lowered, and the carriage drifted away with the fragrance.
To her, this scene was nothing more than a trivial matter, but to Zhou Jia, it was undoubtedly a big sigh of relief.
...
Backing back to the guest room, the sisters from the Jiao family had already thanked and left, and the room became his own residence again, with a wider space.
"go out?"
Zhou Jia touched the wound on his chest, and shook his head lightly:
"Why don't we wait until the injury recovers."
A mere deputy director of a mine, a person with a few origin stones a month, I believe that with the figure of the third elder, he doesn't pay much attention to it.
Go back a few days late, and no one will find out.
After the battle with shopkeeper Xue, he understood his own shortcomings even more.
Different from others, most of his cultivation was brought up by Yuan Xing, he lacks fighting experience, and his martial skills are relatively loose.
Inspired violence, his strength was comparable to the eighth rank, but facing the sixth rank shopkeeper Xue, he almost died.
Empty strength, but no skills!
As for the other party's weird means...
No one can guarantee that other people will not be there. This time the encounter is solved by luck, so can it still depend on luck every time?
Martial arts, don't relax!
Taking a deep breath, suppressing the pain in the chest and abdomen, Zhou Jia picked up the ax and shield, and slowly practiced in the room.
The shield has been completed, but the proficiency has not reached the limit, so I don't know if there will be other changes after the limit is completed.
If not.
Then even if the shield is perfect, its usefulness is extremely limited.
And the Wind Cleave…
The martial arts on his body are too low-grade compared to the Death-Slaying Sword, and they can only be effective in the face of masters by brushing up the realm.
Compared with Cao Honglai or Shopkeeper Xue, Zhou Jia's martial arts are too loose.
Time, slowly passing by.
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.
In this month, Zhou Jia didn't encounter any other troubles other than renewing the rental fee, and the chaos in the outer city seemed to have subsided a lot.
Name: Zhou Jia
Cultivation: Ordinary Rank Sixth Grade Cutting Marrow (1231/8000)
Origin Star: Tianying Star (Trait: Handling Soldiers), Dimensional Star (Trait: Violence)
Gongfa: Introduction to Three-Yuan Zhengfa (120/300)
Martial skills: perfect shield counter (367/1000), mastery of shield strike (42/500), proficiency of wind splitting ax (573/600), introduction to Gnar's secret breathing technique (41/200), proficiency of deadly sword (79/500) 1000)
The cultivation base has not changed much, but the martial arts have been greatly improved. The shield attack is advanced and proficient, the ax technique is about to break through, and the death-death sword has greatly increased its proficiency due to regular practice.
If he meets shopkeeper Xue again, he is confident that he will never be so dangerous.
After checking his belongings, Zhou Jia walked out of the room.
Time to go back!
