The first heavy snowfall after the beginning of the 25th year of Hong Xiu fell slowly on that night. In the private residential area in the south of the city of Panlong Town, a young man from an official institution was stabbed in the back by someone, seriously cutting his lungs, and he didn't know how to live or die.

When the guardian Guo You rushed to the scene after hearing the news, three people were already present at the scene, namely the old monk Kuhai, Zheng Yanji, and the headmaster Mu Tie in the town.

At this time, Zhao Xifeng fainted while lying on the position where the knife fell, and a black ink dagger was inserted on his back. Because his injuries were too serious, no one dared to move his body without authorization.

Ku Hai was sitting cross-legged beside Zhao Xifeng, holding Zhao Xifeng's right hand with both hands, and barely maintaining a trace of vague vitality in Zhao Xifeng's body with his pure Buddhist sect cultivation.

Zheng Yanji stood next to a very ordinary ox cart, looking inside the car with a serious expression.

When the two saw Guo You coming quickly, they just nodded and said nothing, only the headmaster Mu Tie went to see him.

Guo You didn't care about the others, but just hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Master, is there any trouble for people?"

Ku Hai frowned and replied, "The sword of the murderer was extremely vicious. If it weren't for the donor Zhao Xiao's timely reaction, it would have been too late when I arrived. So I was not here too slowly. The murderer had no time to confirm whether he succeeded, so he hurriedly fled."

The implication is that Zhao Xifeng's life was saved.

Hearing this, Guo You breathed a little relieved.

Ku Hai continued: "I can barely hold on for an hour. Next, when the doctor comes to pull out the dagger, please help Mr. Zheng use the Huangyan technique to help donor Zhao Xiao stop the bleeding."

Zheng Yanji nodded silently.

Guo You looked around. Not far from Zhao Xifeng, a slightly sunken dent on the flat brick floor showed that someone had used his power to fight with someone. Through the traces of Zhao Xifeng's soles, it can be seen that this kick that made the ground sunken should have been created by himself. However, everyone did not show much surprise. The cultivation seedlings carefully selected by Tianqingsi, the place where the star tide came to the world, is reasonable.

However, what is incredible is that Zhao Xifeng and the murderer faced a head-on battle, and the position of the kill was actually behind him.

Judging from the steps at the scene and where Zhao Xifeng is, the empty ox cart in front of Zheng Yanji should be the direction that was stabbed with a sinister knife.

So the current situation is that Zhao Xifeng had almost fatal blows, but there was no trace of the murderer left at the scene.

Guo You thought about it for a long time but could not restore the scene at that time, so he called Mu Tie to ask if there were any other abnormalities in the town.

Mu Tie walked to Guo You and whispered a few words. The latter nodded slowly with a serious expression while listening. It was not until the name of the yamen official Chen Mo appeared that he slowly frowned and asked, "You mean, Chen Mo, who originally wanted to drink with his colleagues, has not seen his whereabouts yet?"

Mu Tie nodded and said yes.

"Check, you have to see people alive and die to see corpses. Check where Chen Mo has been, who has seen him, and whether there is any abnormal flow in the account. Then check the origin of this ox cart."

Captain Mu left.

Zheng Yanji, who had been standing next to the ox cart, kept silent. After seeing Mu Tie walking away, he said to Guo You: "Mr. Guo is really a hidden dragon and a tiger. A small town constable could cross the town so quickly after the incident. He felt that this place was only a few cups of tea and me, and his cultivation was not bad."

Guo You smiled and said, "Mr. Zheng misunderstood. Tonight is Captain Mu's turn at night. Maybe it was not far from here when the incident happened. He himself has never practiced."

Zheng Yanji nodded and turned to the ox driveway: "It's right that the perpetrator should have a knife out of the car, and he should not be a practitioner, but just an ordinary person who is proficient in murder skills. Otherwise, I would not have no sense. Such killing skills and style of conduct remind me of an organization."

Guo You's face darkened and asked, "Mr. Zheng said, kill old friends?"

"Yes, it's just killing old friends." Zheng Yanji looked serious. For him, it was really unsettling that the head of the sect found that such a dangerous killer organization was entrenched here on the eve of the head's young girl coming to the town to "repair".

The Killing Old Man Organization is the most bizarre killer organization in the Central Continent. Most of the members of the organization are hidden in the market and do not practice, so it is extremely difficult to guard against, because you don’t know which of the people around you is a friend and which one is a killer disguised as a friend. You may be a familiar vendor on the street on weekdays, or a chess friend you meet by chance, or even a couple who have been with you for many years. Even a great practitioner cannot be careful of everyone around you.

Ku Hai frowned and said slowly with a serious expression: "If you really kill the old man, then the restrictions on cultivators in me and the school will not work at all. Please ask Guo Zhenshou to arrange the government's strength to ensure the safety of the people and students in the town."

"It's all right," Guo You nodded and responded, then walked to the traces of Zhao Xifeng stepping out, leaned over to check, and said, "Looking at the dents on the ground, the energy is exposed, and the force is fully exerted. It should be that Xifeng and the attacker have decided to have a victory or defeat. If the other party has not practiced, then it will definitely not be able to stop this level of attack. The injury will definitely be not light. It is impossible to evacuate this place before the master arrives, and it is even more impossible to hurt Xifeng with a dagger. The only possibility is that the killers coming are two people. Before I came, I have completely blocked all exits in the town, and I will definitely arrest people and arrest them. At the same time, I will wipe out all the remnants of the old man. Please rest assured."

Ku Hai nodded slightly.

The three of them had their own thoughts, no one spoke for a while, and they quietly waited for the doctor to come, and at the same time they felt a premonition that the town would not be peaceful from now on.

An hour before dawn was the quietest moment in the town. Apart from the occasional barking of wild dogs, there was no sound.

As usual, Li Si came to the butcher shop at this time and took care of it to open the business.

He walked into the store, hung the ribs and hind legs of the ribs that he had not sold yesterday on the window bar, scooped a bucket of water from the backyard tank, and scrubbed the knives and chopping boards.

After finishing all the work, it was still half an hour before the opening of the business. Li Si went to the kitchen and sat on the steps in a daze. For him, the handover with Chen Mo yesterday was just a small matter, just like those who died in the town directly or indirectly unknown for so many years, just like pork that he helped sell every day.

For a mature killing organization, there is no difference between human meat and pork, it is just a business.

However, today, he had always felt a little uneasy in his heart, especially when he was doing chores just now, something seemed to be ignored.

So he returned to the front shop and checked and reconciled one by one.

The kitchen counter was completely deficient in oil, the newly replaced brand-new white mop, the bone-cutting knife and bone-clearing knife with cold light seemed to be fine.

Wait for a moment, bone-removing knife?!

Li Si suddenly became nervous. He scrubbed and sharpened the bone-clearing knife for thousands of times, and could be touched with his eyes closed in his hand. It was the one he put in Chen Mo's package yesterday! The purpose was to blame the Butcher Zhang, who only knew how to drink and eat meat, and his nominal boss.

Now, I put it quietly on the knife holder, just like everything that happened yesterday was an illusion!

Li Si held the bone-clearing knife in his hand. The man trembled slightly and quickly tested all the links in his mind. He knew that there must be a problem with one step, but he didn't know where the problem was.

At this moment, a sigh came from the kitchen, which was originally empty. The voice was hoarse, greasy, and even a little bit obscene, as if the oil and wine lees that could be smelled from the sigher's throat across several rooms.

Without any hesitation, Li Si ran towards the window. At the same time, he threw the bone-clearing knife in his hand towards the shop across the street, with the only purpose of making the noise. If the person in the kitchen chased the knife, he would have a chance to escape. If the other party came towards him, the movement of the bone-clearing knife smashed the shops on the street would definitely attract the attention of other experts from all walks of life on this night of martial law in the whole town. At that time, he might not have no chance of fishing in troubled waters.

However, before the handle of the knife flew out of the palm of his hand, Li Si's plan was completely disappointed. A fat figure somehow came to Li Si's face, pinched Li Si's neck, and let the sharp bone-clearing knife throw it on his body.

With a "bang", the knife fell to the ground. Li Si was pinched by a chicken, and dragged it back to the kitchen without any resistance.

Li Si, who was dragged back to the kitchen, was thrown to the ground and fell to death. However, just as he tried to stand up again, he found that there was still someone lying beside him. Looking closely, it was Chen Mo who should have been arrested by the whole town!

Li Si trembled and slowly supported his body, and was confused and coughed constantly. Looking at the fat and sloppy fat man in front of him, he never thought that the boss who he had been using to cover his identity was actually a hidden master!

However, he was not as panicked as he showed at this moment. The leader of the organization told him that when people are the slaughter and I am the fish, appropriately showing panic and fear is the appropriate respect for the strong, so as to numb those arrogant practitioners.

"Boss," Li Si adjusted his posture and knelt in front of Butcher Zhang with great respect. "Xiao Si has been blind in recent years and has offended him in recent years."

Butcher Zhang panted heavily, and struggled to stuff his fat butt into the poor rattan chair, found the most comfortable position to lie down, and then started to shake it creakingly, without even looking at Li Si.

Li Si tried hard to adjust his kneeling posture and looked even more humble, saying, "The person who wanted to kill Zhao Xifeng is the young master of the Ma family, but from the root, it is probably the Beiyue Academy that wants to kill people to establish his authority. Xiao Si was just doing his job on orders. This organization doesn't know that the senior is a master in the town, otherwise how dare he disrespect him? If the senior could let me leave today, the organization would definitely have a generous gift, and I would like to ask the senior to be kind."

In just a few short sentences, Li Si clearly explained that killing people with a knife was just a misunderstanding. Li Si had support behind killing his old friends. Moreover, no matter whether the butcher Zhang had a friendship with Zhao Xifeng, the butcher could not afford to offend anyone who wanted to kill Zhao Xifeng. As for whether the butcher would be angry and angry, Li Si also reserved a way out for this former boss. After all, he never said from beginning to end that he would take Chen Mo with him.

Butcher Zhang was still swaying back and forth on the rattan chair, and his thick chin shook with the shaking of the rattan chair. After hearing Li Si's words, a cruel smile appeared on his face, but Li Si was kneeling on the ground but could not see it.
Chapter completed!
