This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 245 The Death of the Blood-Faced Ghost
Before the Ming-Xin Reforms, communication between the central government and local areas could only be transmitted by fast-running messengers.

For one matter, the local and central governments would have to explain and argue back and forth, and the time wasted on the road could be as long as half a year.

This makes the efficiency of problem solving extremely low and makes the central government's control over local areas increasingly weak.

Half of the reasons for the problems such as the emperor being far away and the imperial power not extending below the county level are that the speed of information transmission is too slow.

The development of technology has changed this phenomenon.

This was the reason why the then Prime Minister Ye Ze'an went against all odds and carried out the "Ming Xin Reform" despite numerous difficulties and obstacles.

The Ming-Sin Reforms can be said to have given the Great Lan Dynasty, an old and decaying empire that had existed for more than 500 years, a new lease of life, giving it a chance to be reborn.

As the initiator and leader of the reform, Prime Minister Ye Ze'an is undoubtedly a figure who will go down in history!
On May 5, the Central Cabinet's decision on the case of Zhang Zongyang in Datong Prefecture was transmitted back to Feng Province on the same day.

Bian Jingru also learned about Prime Minister Ye Ze'an's attitude towards this matter through his connections in the central cabinet.

A three-year salary deduction is nothing to him. Although it will affect his annual evaluation, for an official of his level, if there is still a chance to move up, it will definitely not depend on the annual evaluation.

On the contrary, if one day he has to go down, even if he gets A in the annual evaluation, he will still have to go down.

As for arresting the murderer who robbed the execution ground and capturing the kidnapped prisoners.

Shangguan Xiao and Hao Yi are already dead, so most of the problems have been solved, and we can also give a satisfactory explanation to the central government.

The relatively difficult one is the blood-faced ghost.

The Blood-Faced Ghost must be brought to justice within three months, otherwise you will be dismissed from your position!
In fact, there is a way to solve this problem.

In fact, although the punishment of dismissal from office seemed severe, the person who died this time was clearly an official from the provincial capital, but the Prime Minister only named Bian Jingru to arrest the murderer and did not let the provincial capital get involved.

The implication is already obvious.

What really made Bian Jingru uneasy was the central government’s attitude towards the new university.

Now Bian Jingru already knows Lu Wenzhen’s plan.

The Lu family has been secretly planning for many years and has already taken the lead. At present, the central government is not opposed to the establishment of a new university in the provincial capital of Feng Province.

If Xu Jing really succeeds in breaking through and becoming a grandmaster, it would be possible to establish a new university in the provincial capital!

There are two universities in the same province, so the competition is extremely fierce.

Resources and talents for martial arts training are the most direct competition!
In addition, there is also competition for various invisible resources. For example, students graduating from Wuhan University can easily enter the officialdom, obtain good positions, and be more easily promoted in the future.

With the help of Wuhan University, people from Datong Prefecture can spread throughout the officialdom of Feng Province and even go to other provinces!

This is also the reason why Bian Jingru dared to fight against the provincial capital.

But once there is another university in the provincial capital, there will be a large number of competitors for Wuhan University students in the future.

In addition, there are influences in many aspects.

It can be said that if a new university is established in the provincial capital, it will be a heavy blow to Wuhan University and Datong Prefecture!

After thinking for a while in the office, Bian Jingru called his secretary and asked him to send someone to Wuhan University to invite Li Fei over.

More than an hour later, Li Fei met Bian Jingru again.

Bian Jingru chatted with Li Fei amiably for a few words, and then got to the point:

"Last time you asked me if I knew why the provincial capital wanted to cooperate with Xu Jing and spare no effort to help him break through. Now I know the answer."

"What is it?"

Li Fei asked.

“To build a new university”

Bian Jingru told Li Fei the information he had obtained from the Central Cabinet.

“So it’s true.”

After listening to this, Li Fei's eyes changed.

When he interrogated Feng Sanniang, he casually guessed that the person behind the scenes couldn't be the Inspector General of Feng Province?
Feng Sanniang's reaction at that time was somewhat obvious, as if Li Fei had really guessed right.

But without accurate information, Li Fei couldn't be 100% sure of this guess.

Now the truth is finally revealed.

It turns out that the mastermind behind all this, besides Xu Jing, there is also an inspector general!

The target of Li Fei's revenge, besides a martial arts master, is also a fifth-rank cabinet official, a frontier official, and the head of the Canglin Lu family!

Moreover, Xu Jing has the potential to break through and become a grand master, and become the president of the thirteenth university of the Great Blue Dynasty.

Either one is difficult to kill.

"Xiao Fei, I know you are still upset about your teacher and your aunt, but you must not be impulsive. You are the peerless genius with the fastest breakthrough speed in history. You will have the opportunity to become a grandmaster in the future! When that time comes, you will be able to seek justice for your teacher and your aunt!"

Bian Jingru said to Li Fei earnestly, "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Don't worry, I will give you my greatest support, whether in cultivation or in overturning the case for your master's aunt in the future!"

"Thank you, Master Bian!"

Li Fei stood up and saluted to Bian Jingru.

"Eh."

Bian Jingru smiled and motioned Li Fei to sit down. "No need to be so polite. Speaking of which, I still want to apologize to you."

"Why do you say this, sir?"

Li Fei looked at the other party.

Bian Jingru said with a guilty look on his face: "In the case of Zhang Zongyang, Datong Prefecture was led by the other party and fell into the trap step by step. I also have a certain responsibility, which eventually led to your master's unjust death. Now the central cabinet has made a conclusion. Before there is solid evidence, Shangguan Xiao can only bear the infamy of patricide."

Li Fei was silent.

After learning that the provincial capital was planning to build a new university, Bian Jingru no longer concealed his intention to win him over.

However, the other party, as a garrison commander, was indeed sincere in apologizing to a young man who was less than 20 years old.

Li Fei stood up again and saluted the other party:
"Master Bian, your words are too serious. You cannot be blamed for this matter."

"Kid, I told you not to be so polite."

Bian Jingru asked Li Fei to sit down again, and then suddenly asked casually:
"Xiao Fei, what do you think of the Blood-Faced Ghost?"

Li Fei's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this, and he said calmly, "Sir, I don't know any blood-faced ghost."

"Hahaha."

Bian Jingru laughed and looked at him meaningfully, "Of course, you won't get involved with such a lawless thug."

"Xiao Fei, the court has given me three months to capture the Blood-Faced Ghost. I'm under a lot of pressure right now. If you have any clues, please remember to provide them to me."

"Yes, if I have any clues, I will report it to you immediately."

"."

The two chatted for a while, and Bian Jingru personally escorted Li Fei out of the office.

Back in the Qilin vehicle, Li Fei closed his eyes and pondered.

Today, Bian Jingru called him over, firstly to let him know who the real murderer behind the scenes was, and secondly to win him over and let him know that only by relying on Datong Prefecture and on him, Bian Jingru, would he have the opportunity to take revenge in the future and overturn Shangguan Xiao's case.

The last conversation about the blood-faced ghost was a warning to him.

Don't get involved with the bloody ghost!

However, Li Fei was not worried that Bian Jingru would capture the Green-faced Ghost and then hand it over to the court as the Blood-faced Ghost.

In fact, the most sensible choice is not to intercept the special train from the provincial capital.

But Li Fei did not regret his impulse.

Before he intercepted the special train to the provincial capital, he had thought about the worst consequence - giving up the alias of Green-Faced Ghost!

But now he is not worried.

It is possible that a new university will be established in the provincial capital. In this case, Bian Jingru’s priority should be how to target the provincial capital.

That green-faced ghost is a very sharp knife! Even if this knife might hurt him, Bian Jingru would not give it up easily.

Otherwise, he would not have specially called Li Fei to talk today and specifically "reminded" Li Fei of the "three-month deadline" given by the court.

This is actually a hint for Li Fei to remind the Green-faced Ghost not to use the identity of the Blood-faced Ghost to cause trouble in the future.

A few nights later, Li Fei used the technique of "Blindness by a Leaf" and the Vajra Seal: Treasure Bottle to quietly leave Wuhan University.

In the shadows, he changed his clothes:

The body shrank and put on a human skin mask.

So now the Blood-Faced Ghost, who is wanted by the entire Feng Province, appears again!

Li Fei had already guessed what Bian Jingru was planning to do. It was nothing more than finding someone to replace him, pretending to be the Blood-faced Ghost, and then being killed on the spot in a fierce battle.

Perform a play for the court.

If the central government really wanted the murderer, it would not let Datong Prefecture catch him on its own.

We will definitely send a special task force to participate.

What the Prime Minister really wanted was a satisfactory explanation from Bian Jingru.

We must let the world know that anyone who dares to ignore the laws of the court and defy its majesty will not have a good end in the end!

Bian Jingru, who had been an official for many years, naturally understood this point very well.

Li Fei, who had worked in the system for ten years in his previous life, could also understand it.

So Li Fei decided to "help" Bian Jingru.

Anyway, the Blood-Faced Ghost will be "offline" in the future, so he might as well give it his best performance before "dying"!
A study room is filled with various valuable treasures.

A man was sitting on a throne, playing with a string of Buddhist beads.

The man wore a purple gold crown, his hair was tied up with a white jade hairpin, and on his thumb was a jade wrench made from the body material of a fifth-grade exotic beast.

The Buddhist beads the man was playing with and the jade wrench he was wearing alone were worth hundreds of thousands!
The man's name is Gu Xianglin, and he has a famous nickname in the underworld of Datong Prefecture - Cannon King!
"Master, Master Liu is back."

A subordinate whispered outside the door.

Gu Xianglin did not even raise his head and continued to study the Buddhist beads in his hand:
"Let him come to me."

"Yes."

Subordinates leave.

A moment later, a middle-aged man pushed open the door of the study and walked in.

"master."

"how?"

"We have completely taken over the plantation in Jiuchuan Mountain."

Master Liu reported.

In addition to the Human-Faced Villa, the power of the "Beast King" Yu Longqing in Datong Prefecture also includes three farms for growing exotic animal food and more than a dozen raw material production sites.

After Yu Longqing's death, Qingyuan Urban Management Company and the Zhang family joined forces with the 'Queen' Feng Sanniang to compete with the 'Cannon King' and the 'Poison King' for three exotic beast food plantations and more than a dozen raw material production sites.

Originally, Qingyuan Urban Management Company had the upper hand, but Li Fei suddenly killed Feng Sanniang, causing the alliance to break down and also bringing revenge from Feng Sanniang's forces.

As a result, the two major forces, 'Cannon King' and 'Poison King', naturally took advantage of the situation.

However, Li Fei had no intention of dealing with these matters during this period, so in the end, the three exotic beast food plantations and more than a dozen raw material production sites fell into the hands of the "Cannon King" and the "Poison King".

"Good job."

Just when Gu Xianglin was about to reward his subordinates, there was a sudden noise outside the study.

"There is an assassin—"

boom! ! ! !

The ground shook violently.

Gu Xianglin suddenly stood up from his chair and asked sternly:
"what's the situation?"

"Master, an assassin broke in!"

The guards outside immediately reported.

"Several people?"

"It seems there is only one person."

"one person"

Gu Xianglin suddenly felt uneasy.

The place where he lives is patrolled 24 hours a day by inspectors and warriors from the Zhige Headquarters.

The other mansions on this street are also inhabited by important figures in Datong Prefecture.

In all these years, there has never been an assassin encountered.

"go!"

Gu Xianglin decisively chose to evacuate and planned to leave through the secret passage.

But just a few steps after he walked out of the study, a figure broke through the outer wall like a cannonball and landed at his feet.

Gu Xianglin looked down and his pupils contracted.

The man on the ground who was beaten like a dead dog was Ouyang Cheng, the most powerful Dao Foundation Stage warrior under his command.

This person was also one of the several Dao Foundation Stage cultivators who participated in the siege of the Green-faced Ghost King in the wasteland, and he was the only survivor of the battle in the wasteland.

Now, the only survivor is dead.

"Could it be."

A guess flashed through Gu Xianglin's mind.

Then he felt a overwhelming murderous intent!
A figure was surrounded by blood, leaving a series of afterimages in the night, breaking through layers of defenses and rushing to his front with unstoppable force:

"You are the Cannon King?"

"you"

Gu Xianglin wanted to say something.

But the other party obviously had no intention of communicating:
"Lend me your head!"

As soon as the words fell, the blood-red crystal occupied Gu Xianglin's entire field of vision.
The person who came was naturally Li Fei.

Bian Jingru said to him, "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

But he felt that revenge should be taken 'immediately'!
At that time, the 'Beast King', 'Cannon King' and 'Poison King' joined forces and set up a trap to kill him twice.

Now, the 'Beast King' Yu Longqing has been dead for more than two months, and Li Fei feels that he has been waiting for a long time.

It's time to avenge the rest and send the other two away.
That night, a battle first broke out on Changping Street in Datong District, and the "Cannon King" Gu Xianglin was shot and killed in his own mansion.

Afterwards, the murderer was chased by people from the Inspection General Hospital and the Stop-Ghost General Hospital. He fled to another street and broke into the residence of the "Poison King" She Zhun.

In the end, She Zhun was chased into a secret passage by the murderer and beaten to death!
Overnight, two big figures who had dominated the Datong Prefecture for decades died one after another.

The next morning, the Datong government issued a notice:

The murderer who committed the crime in Datong District last night was the wanted Blood-Faced Ghost.

In the fierce battle last night, the opponent was killed on the spot by the masters sent by the government!

A generation of criminals fell.

There is another chapter tonight
