Cultivation: My Spreading Branches System

Chapter 105, Tragedy

Chapter , tragedy
Hearing the scream, Xu Fei's eyes suddenly became sharp.

However, it was quickly judged that the screams were at least 200 meters away from home, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lingniang was also taken aback and shrank into Xu Fei's arms.

"Father..."

"It's okay." Xu Fei comforted Lingniang, then walked out of the room and looked in the direction of the scream.

But because of the obstruction of the house, I couldn't see what was going on.

"Go to the lady's side, I'll go to the front yard to have a look." Xu Fei ordered.

Although Xu Fei's strength is already considered very strong, he can only sense movement within a range of about 50 meters around him at best.

And the environment can't be very messy, otherwise the effect will be greatly reduced.

In addition, if the opponent has special ways of holding his breath or hiding, the accuracy of this perception will continue to decrease.

But now there was a problem. No matter what, he had to go to his grandma, parents, father-in-law, and master to have a look.

Because it was diagonally opposite the door, Xu Fei came over in a few steps.

Then he saw Yun Niang's sister Shang Caixia, and his sister-in-law holding a spear in her hand, guarding the yard, looking quite heroic.

It's just that after seeing Xu Fei, his expression was a little bit awkward.

Xu Fei chuckled and nodded to his sister-in-law. He naturally knew about Xiaocai's martial arts practice, otherwise he would not have stood out at the age of 12 and fought with the disciples of the Tiger Boxing Gym who collected monthly fees. stand up.

Seeing that his parents' side was relatively stable, Xu Fei returned to his side.

Back and forth, Xu Fei inevitably frowned.

It seems that we need to change the house so that the family can live closer and take care of her more easily.

Several children were woken up, one cried, and most of the children immediately cried.

Only the eldest son Zhang Xian lay half asleep in Ling Niang's arms, completely ignoring the commotion outside.

Fortunately, the maids all calmed down after coaxing him for a while.

And after all this tossing, the screams that were occasionally heard just now gradually stopped.

It seems that everything has returned to calm.

The women couldn't hide their panic. Only Yun Niang, who knew Xu Fei's other identity, was leaning on her chair, sleepy.

"It's okay, let's rest first." Xu Fei said.

Several of the women were pregnant, or had just given birth, and it was inevitable to panic after such a commotion.

Even with Xu Fei's comfort, he didn't dare to sleep to death when he was resting.

After thinking for a while, Xu Fei came to the courtyard again and glanced in the direction of the screams.

Although he couldn't hear it clearly due to the distance, he was vaguely aware of the commotion.

This made Xu Fei frown.

Wait till dawn.

What happened last night spread quickly.

It turned out that last night a group of thieves broke into the homes of the big families in the city, robbed and killed people.

Killed dozens of people in the other party's house.

Such a vicious case shocked the whole city.

Xu Fei couldn't help frowning after hearing this situation.

This is too vicious and cruel.

Just let Li Feiyu's identity act, but for a while, he didn't know how to find the traces of this gang of murderers.

After all, the previous efforts to eradicate harm for the people were all due to grievances and debtors. Even if the other party is cunning, you can still find the other party after searching.

But the current situation of not knowing who the murderer is is a bit troublesome for Xu Fei.

As for why it didn't pass when the incident happened last night...

Although Xu Fei is willing to eliminate harm for the people, the prerequisite is to ensure the safety of his family.

The situation last night was unknown. If Xu Fei went out and his family was in danger, then he would regret it.However, under such a crisis, people in various cities quickly discussed countermeasures.

Under the organization of the directors of each neighborhood, who are almost equivalent to the directors of the sub-district offices, the rich contributed money and the powerful contributed to organize night patrol teams in each neighborhood.

Finally, it calmed the hearts of the people a little.

After working for a long time, Zhang Lian called his son.

Tell the situation.

Wealthier households paid more money, while poorer households took out young and strong households to participate in night watch at night.

The Zhang family is not considered a rich man, and they have to pay four taels of silver every month.

As for the young and strong people who participated in the night patrol, each of them had different strengths.

It is a simple lifting of big stones. Those who can lift two hundred catties will be subsidized by two silver coins a month, and those who can lift three hundred catties will be subsidized by four silver coins a month.

As for those who can lift a large stone weighing kilograms, they can already serve as captains of the night patrol, and they will receive a monthly subsidy of eight coins.

Hearing this Xu Fei couldn't help frowning.

Worried about the strength of the Night Watch members.

After all, only about six hundred catties of strength can develop inner strength.

This is true for both men and women.

This is also the reason why there are far fewer female warriors than males.

Therefore, among the members of the night watch team selected under such a set of criteria, there may not be any warriors with inner strength.

But after thinking about it, Xu Fei didn't say anything.

Of course, they were not so generous as to say that their family would give them some extra money, so they could find some powerful inner warriors.

Just go with the flow.

It would be foolish to stand out in this situation.

The Broadsword will be stationed.

The elders and hall masters of several forces gathered together again.

Discussing what happened last night.

"Who knows what happened last night was done by those people?" Feng Zhen, the elder of Wuyongmen, scratched his head and said.

Although his martial arts are strong, but the night is dark but he dare not take risks lightly.

After all, if one is not careful, then he may also be in danger.

Kongjing of Damosi Temple glanced at Xuanwu Sword Sect Yan Chong when he heard this.

He guessed that this matter was most likely led by the other party.

But seeing the other party's eyes, nose, nose and heart, sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai did not make any difference at all, and after thinking about it, he didn't reveal it.

And he has no proof.

"Then should we send disciples to search?" said Zhao Xing, the elder of the Broadsword Guild.

"Of course it is still necessary." Damo Temple first supported after thinking about it.

"Our Xuanwu Sword Sect also has no objection." Xuanwu Sword Sect Yan Chong said indifferently.

Soon, this discussion ended again.

However, several powerful disciples were sent to search Yongle City, but no clues were found.

As for the government?

In Gaotong, he was beaten to death by the evildoer Wan Duxing, especially after the incident, the government office didn't even let a fart go, and the arresters of the government office had already begun to perfunctory.

Even though the prefect asked him three times a day, after a brief examination of the deceased and confirming that the murderer was quite capable, the arresting officers became even more unwilling to take responsibility.

Whoever wants to check should do it. If it hadn't been for the action of the hero Li, the corpse of Gao Tong, who had done his duty faithfully, would have been unable to be restrained.

And a few days later, there was another big case!
Although it was on the other side of the city, quite far from Xu Fei's side, but this time it was especially vicious, and even several night patrols suffered heavy casualties.

As a result, people who were quite satisfied with the night patrol team's work because of the good subsidies were suddenly frightened and did not dare to participate in the night patrol anymore.
