Fantasy: I became the villain at the beginning

After passing the city gate, the vision suddenly opened up.

On the street paved with bluestone slabs, there is an endless stream of vendors and pedestrians, some of whom speak official Chinese, and some of them are full of guest words.

Although Ye Chen couldn't understand it, he also knew that it was probably the language of the southwest frontier.

Ye Chen led the horse and walked down the street, looking at the shops next to him.

He wants to find a shop to stay and rest for a few days now, not only for himself, but also for the horse.

After running for three days in a row, there are still three days to go. The horse is the most important thing.

Because of identity issues, Ye Chen didn't want to go to a place with a lot of traffic. There are people from all over the world here, and maybe some of them know him.

It will be troublesome to be recognized by then.

Therefore, Ye Chen finally chose to settle in a small inn in the southwest corner of Shangda City.

Although this inn is small, it is hygienic and clean, and the fodder in the horse corridor is thick.

When communicating with the innkeeper, Ye Chen avoided talking as much as possible to prevent unnecessary conflicts.

For these three days, Ye Chen didn't plan to go anywhere, he just waited for the horses to eat and drink enough, and prepared some dry food before continuing on the road!
However, it is counterproductive.

On the second night after checking in, an uninvited guest broke into the room, interrupting Ye Chen's breath adjustment.

This person is nine feet tall and wears night clothes, the whole body is wrapped in the night clothes, leaving only a pair of eyes.

He broke in through the window and attacked Ye Chen without any pause at all. His thick palms were condensed into knives, and he came through the air with a fierce wind!

If ordinary people lived in this room, the masked man might be able to break in silently, but it's a pity that the one who lives here is Ye Chen.

If the dignified General of Shangzhu Kingdom couldn't even deal with such a situation, it would be in vain.

Facing the fierce knife in his hand, Ye Chen's eyes were fixed, his thighs sitting cross-legged suddenly exerted force, and his whole body rose into the air.

The next moment, the legs off the ground suddenly straightened, tapped the ground lightly, and flew out with the help of force, the iron fist in his hand was like a cannonball facing the knife in his hand!

Click!

There was only the sound of bone shattering, the fist collided with the hand knife, and the latter's hand bone broke suddenly.

"what!"

The masked man subconsciously let out a cry of pain, but before he had time to make another move, Ye Chen burst out with another fist.

The masked man who was already shocked by Ye Chen's quick reaction didn't have time to defend himself. He was hit on the bridge of the nose by a punch, and flew upside down and hit the wall.

Ye Chen gained power and was about to attack again, but the masked man who fell to the ground said weakly: "Hero, spare me, there is a reason for this, please listen to my explanation!"

After finishing speaking, he threw something quickly and went straight to Ye Chen.

call out!
Ye Chen grasped the flying object in his hand, and took a closer look, it turned out to be a token.

The silver token is bright all over, with two characters engraved in the center - Shangda, and the word 'Feng' is also engraved on the back of the token.

Ye Chen had been the lord of the Dafeng Dynasty, so he naturally knew that this was the identity token of the Lord of Shangda City, which was equivalent to a token of office given by the Dafeng Dynasty.

This important item is generally not out of the body, unless the situation is urgent or the person is dead.

Ye Chen asked, "Are you a thief, the owner of Shangda City?"

The man in black nodded and said: "Mingyuan, Shangda City, is the Lord of Shangda City appointed by the Dafeng Dynasty."

"You are a majestic Lord of Shangda City, so you only do these stealthy things?" Ye Chen shook his head, "This general sees you as a thief who stole the token of the Lord of the City as a means of saving his life."

The masked man who claimed to be Mingyuan shook his head repeatedly, "It's absolutely true, I am indeed Mingyuan, the Lord of Shangda City, if you don't believe me, you can go to the street and ask if there was any change in the City Lord's Mansion a month ago. "

"The so-called change is that Wang Shadi raised his troops to rebel and seized the Lord's Mansion of Shangda City. At that time, I had no choice but to escape. I was going to assassinate Wang Shadi today, but it's a pity..."

Speaking of this, the masked man suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, after going out to inquire, you will know that because of the special geographical location of Shangda City, the city lord chosen can know martial arts, and the one who lives in the city lord's mansion now does not know martial arts. It is enough to prove his false identity!"

Just when Ye Chen was about to speak, shouts came from the inn downstairs.

"Are the officials also staying in the hotel? We have good rooms and meals here."

"Go, go, go, we are tracking down the assassin who assassinated the city lord. If you delay and blame him, let alone staying in the store, it will be almost demolished for you."

"Calm down, the official, there is only one customer living in our store, and I will take you there now."

Hearing that even his own inn was going to be demolished, the owner didn't dare to delay, and rushed to the room where Ye Chen was with his soldiers.

In the room, Ye Chen and Ming Yuan looked at each other.

Mingyuan said excitedly: "You must believe me, if I die, the people of Shangda City will really be in dire straits!"

Ye Chen thought about it, and decided to save him first.

However, it was not for the people of Shangda City. He just thought that if the assassin who assassinated the city lord was found in his room, he would naturally come into everyone's sight.

This is what he does not want to see.

Ye Chen pointed to the ceiling, signaling the masked man to go up.

The latter understood, jumped up to the ceiling two or three times, and quietly stared down like a spider hanging upside down.

At this time, the sound of hurried footsteps was getting closer, and the shopkeeper came to the front of the house, knocked on the door and broke in.

"The guest is really sorry, the officials are doing routine inspections, please cooperate!"

Ye Chen waved his hand, signaling him to be free.

Two soldiers in strong and sharp clothes came in, glanced at Ye Chen, and said, "What are you doing? Take off your hat!"

Ye Chen took off his hood silently, revealing the serious square face of the Great General of Shangzhu Kingdom.

The soldiers took out the portraits for comparison, then shook their heads and asked, "Did you see any suspicious people?"

With that said, they had gone to the wooden cabinet to search.

Ye Chen shook his head and didn't speak.

Another soldier went to the bed and got down on his stomach to check under it.

Right above him, lay the masked man lying on his stomach.

The masked man stepped on the bed frame, leaving a shallow shoe print, although it is not obvious, but it is easy to spot if you look closely.

The soldier who checked the bottom of the bed stood up. The shoe print was on his right, and he could see it just by turning around.

At this time, Ye Chen under the wide black robe had already clenched his hands, as long as the soldier turned his head, he would attack without hesitation.

"Officer, there shouldn't be any problem, why don't you go downstairs and have a cup of tea and rest, it's been a hard night."

The shopkeeper said earnestly.

Hearing this, the two soldiers looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

"Okay, let's have a drink."

After finishing speaking, the two soldiers went out first, and the shopkeeper was last, the moment he closed the door, he quietly raised his head to take a look...
