Minglong

Chapter 17: Killing an egg against a stone
Before others could see how the move started, Xie Jinhuan, who was standing next to the carriage, had already rushed out from the spot and crossed three meters in an instant!

Lin Wanyi was still anxiously thinking about what to do when she noticed out of the corner of her eye a black afterimage with a cold glow flashing past Fu Dongping.

When I could see clearly, the figure had already stopped beside the stable, holding the Zhenglun sword in his left hand, with blood dripping from the dark green blade!
Fu Dongping was no mediocre fighter, but his saber was only two inches out of its sheath. When he stepped forward to draw his sword, he froze in place.

L……

Blood splattered, and a pool of blood gradually appeared on the ground!
The courtyard also fell silent. The market manager who came from afar to check the situation, and even Lin Wanyi and Jia Zheng, all stood there in a daze, their eyes full of confusion.

After Xie Jinhuan paused for a moment, his left hand swirled and swung the sword:
Whistle rustle~
Choking——

The three-foot-long sword returned to its sheath in the blink of an eye!

"You can't even draw your sword, yet you dare to disgrace yourself in the martial arts world?"

Thump~
Fu Dongping, holding a saber in both hands, staggered and knelt on his knees. Looking down, he could see blood gushing out of his left ribs. His waist and abdomen were directly cut in half by a sword. His eyes were filled with disbelief.

He raised his sword and tried to struggle to stand up, but his waist and abdomen were cut, so how could he exert any fighting strength? He tried his best to support his body with the saber, but fell to the ground while twitching.

Jia Zheng, feeling as if he were facing a formidable enemy, initially thought that this handsome young man was a gigolo hired by the family head. However, when he noticed that the killer had disappeared in an instant, his eyes turned into shock, and he thought to himself:
What's going on?
Just die like this?
It was at this moment that Lin Wanyi realized that the killer who had come with such a fierce momentum had just disappeared. Seeing the smooth and flowing sword-retracting style, her heart skipped a beat and she muttered to herself:

So handsome!

No wonder warriors are the least useful among the five major schools, and swordsmen are the worst at fighting among warriors, but young girls and wives still prefer swordsmen. When they show off, they are simply better than everyone else in the world.

Judging from the terrifying sword speed and the effortless aura, he is probably at the level of a fourth-grade warrior.

Even without the Dragon Blood Pill to strengthen his physical body, his physical body is so terrifying. If it were strengthened, he would have directly entered the third level...

Oh my god, a 20-year-old third-rank warrior. If the Dan King found out, he would have to kneel down and beg Xie Jinhuan to be his son-in-law...

No, he has the ability, why should I set a three-year period?

Three months is enough...

Lin Wanyi realized that she had greatly underestimated the strength of the two-headed dragon and set the deadline too long, and she felt extremely regretful!
Xie Jinhuan didn't say too much, he put away his sword and squatted down, feeling around Fu Dongping:
"Tell me, who sent you?!"

Fu Dongping fell to the ground, his body twitching constantly. He tried to struggle to get up but was powerless. Facing Xie Jinhuan's questioning, he was quite tough before dying and gritted his teeth and said:
"The rules of the underworld are unbearable...ah——"

Screams echoed throughout the compound.

Xie Jinhuan held the Tiangang mace in his hand, inserted it into the wound on his waist and abdomen, dug out his intestines, and held them in front of Fu Dongping:
"As a man of the underworld, you should die with dignity. I am not a righteous knight. If you say another word of nonsense, I will cut off your penis and stuff it in your mouth, so that you can become famous in the underworld. Do you say it or not?"

?

Jia Zheng originally wanted to step forward to help, but was frightened by the devilish behavior of this gangster and retreated with a look of horror in his eyes.

Lin Wanyi also came back to her senses instantly. Even though she was a witch from the witch cult, she quickly turned her head away and thought to herself - this is the best weapon among soldiers?!
Fu Dongping was a man who had killed countless people, but he never expected that the son of this seemingly upright county lieutenant would be so vicious and act calmly as if it were a common occurrence.

Perhaps because he thought this lunatic was capable of such evil deeds, Fu Dongping's toughness disappeared instantly, and he responded with a mouth full of blood:
"Yes... a mysterious man said you overturned his warehouse yesterday, causing him to lose his valuables..."

"I?"

Xie Jinhuan was stunned with a cold expression. He thought it was just a simple business war and revenge, but only then did he realize that the killer was actually coming for him!

Are these demon bandits crazy?
He killed three fierce bandits including Chen Yuan in the blink of an eye, and today he sent such a small fry to take revenge?

Is it possible that you don’t know the warehouse situation...

How do you know his location if you don’t know the situation?
He was released from prison last night...

Xie Jinhuan's head was full of question marks, and he wanted to ask more carefully, but unfortunately he thought this was a thief who came to assassinate Lin Wanyi, so he was too cruel and didn't leave much time for interrogation.

Fu Dongping's waist and abdomen were cut into pieces, and his intestines were pulled out. There was no way he could survive. He struggled a few times and then died.

Seeing this, Xie Jinhuan could only quickly search his body.

But apart from the huge sum of three hundred taels, Fu Dongping only had an empty black bottle on him.

Xie Jinhuan took the black bottle and looked at it. He found that it contained poison and turned around and said:
"There's really no antidote, what should I do?"

Lin Wanyi is the successor of the Gu Du School. She can refine the poison herself. Poisoning her is no less than throwing a meat bun at a dog.

But it was not easy to show her true colors in broad daylight. She leaned against the carriage, her face flushed, beads of sweat rolling down her forehead.
"It's okay, I have my own way to detoxify. Jia Zheng, go report to the police quickly. Xie Jinhuan, take me back to the clinic first."

Jia Zheng didn't dare to be negligent and immediately ran to call the police.

Xie Jinhuan threw the empty black bottle aside, put away his windfall, and returned to Lin Wanyi.

Because the carriage was covered with poison powder and could not be driven, he picked up Lin Wanyi horizontally, grabbed a random carriage, and headed towards the Lin Family Clinic:

"Is it too late? How about finding a clinic nearby?"

Lin Wanyi's face turned red as she was carried like a princess, but it was not appropriate to talk about gender differences at this moment:

"I'm a disciple of the Gudu Sect. I can refine it myself. Just find me a quiet place to rest."

Seeing this, Xie Jinhuan didn't say much and drove back the way he came. However, after driving a little, he found that this was near the Imperial Academy and his home was right next to it, so he drove straight into Wencheng Street.

Gulu gulu...

Lin Wanyi's blood vessels were blocked all over her body, and there were even some bruises on her arms, but they quickly disappeared. Just as she was secretly using her internal energy to suppress the poison, the carriage suddenly stopped. Xie Jinhuan carried her to Qingquan Lane and climbed into a house.

Lin Wanyi was stunned and asked, "What are you doing here? The clinic is still in front..."

"this is my house."

"Ah?" Xie Jinhuan leaped over Qingquan Lane and landed in the two-courtyard house. He carried Lin Wanyi into the main house in the backyard.

Lin Wanyi took a quick look and really didn't expect that Xie Jinhuan, a bachelor, actually lived in a top-tier mansion where every inch of land was worth a lot of money.

But she didn't ask any further questions at this moment. After being carried into the main room and placed on the bed, she propped herself up and sat cross-legged, closed her eyes and began to refine the poison.

Because the poison was too strong, Lin Wanyi's whole body was soaked in sweat, her black hair stuck to her cheeks, her moist cheeks were as red as apples, and her dress was also stuck to her body, revealing her plump and graceful figure.

Xie Jinhuan wanted to go out, but he was afraid that Lin Wanyi was dead, so he could only sit on the stool at the head of the bed and carefully observe her complexion.

Huhu~
As Lin Wanyi sat cross-legged in meditation, a faint white mist emerged from her bun. Although bruises occasionally appeared on her tender skin, they quickly dissolved.

Between the two overlapping palms, one could see green flames surging, and wisps of black air flowing out from the palms and merging into them, before dissipating completely.

Blood coagulation powder is extremely toxic and can coagulate human blood, causing blood clots throughout the body. Ordinary people will die immediately, but judging from Lin Wanyi's demeanor, there is indeed no problem in dealing with it.

After watching for a while, Xie Jinhuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He took the coal briquettes and used them as pillows, rolling them into a ball and flattening them to make time...
-
At the same time, the county magistrate guarded the yamen.

Because a "super monster" might have appeared recently, all the police officers were given military orders to patrol outside, and the yamen was a bit deserted.

Linghu Qingmo, wearing a snow-white dress and a veil covering her cold and beautiful face, stood at the door of the morgue, frowning as she watched the coroner examine the body. Because there was no result all night, she was a little distracted, and her mind was recalling the fight with Xie Jinhuan yesterday.

Although my lower chest was touched, I was confused at the time and couldn't explain what it felt like, but it was quite weird anyway.

Looking back now, she felt a little regretful about pinching Xie Jinhuan's chest in revenge.

After all, when Xie Jinhuan pinched her, she suffered a great loss. When she pinched a man's chest, wasn't she also at a loss?
But since I've already pinched you, I'll just treat it as a tooth for a tooth...

……

The body on the plank bed was fished out of the river. It had been soaked for an unknown amount of time beforehand and had been kept in the morgue for five or six days. It had now severely swelled and decayed into a giant. Not to mention the face, it was even impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

Even though Liu Qingzhi had been in contact with corpses for many years, he was still disgusted by this thing. He stood behind with cotton stuffed in his nose and tried to persuade him:

"Master Linghu, you are injured. Go back and rest. Even if this corpse is indeed related to the demon bandits, we can't find out anything. The seniors of Danwang Pavilion have already come to see it."

Linghu Qingmo knew that the senior from the palace hadn't figured it out, but this body was clearly connected to the demon bandits. Even if there were no clues, he had to find out how he died, right? There were no other clues at the moment. What if this was the only way to solve the case?
Linghu Qingmo didn't know how to perform an autopsy. After looking at it for a while, he had no clue and asked:
"Are you sure Xie Jinhuan's father has died in the line of duty?"

Liu Qingzhi shook his head and sighed, "The Chilin Guards have personally verified it, so there shouldn't be any mistakes. Brother Xie has a miserable life too. His mother passed away early, and his father is gone too, leaving him alone in the family. But it's good that he's still alive. His fathers served the country loyally, so he should be given some preferential treatment when he gets promoted in the government."

Linghu Qingmo really didn't realize yesterday that Xie Jinhuan had such a rough life, but given this situation, it makes sense that he has developed the martial arts he has today.

If any young man were to find his loved ones harmed by monsters, he would probably risk his life to practice martial arts and vow to kill all the evil monsters in the world!

As the two were discussing this, footsteps were suddenly heard outside the yamen.

stomping on...

Linghu Qingmo looked back at this, only to see Yang Dabiao running in and said excitedly:

"Master Linghu, someone died on Jinmen Street again!"

? ?
Because the words were too joyful, the bailiffs, the coroner, and even Linghu Qingmo all turned their heads, their eyes probably meaning - are you crazy?

There are so many things going on, and someone has died, yet you are still smiling?

Linghu Qingmo's face darkened: "Yang Dabiao, are you still asleep?"

"no no."

Yang Dabiao was mainly happy, and walked closer to explain:

"The thug Fu Dongping, whom I've been searching for for half a month, was killed in the street. The perpetrator was my brother Xie Jinhuan. He was so angry that he ripped out his intestines. This bastard deserves to be left on the street..."

Linghu Qingmo heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing the good news that the bandit had been executed. He thought for a moment and said,

"Isn't Xie Jinhuan under house arrest? How did he run into Fu Dongping on Jinmen Street?"

"Uh……"

Yang Dabiao was a little embarrassed and explained randomly:

"He had a headache this morning and went to the Lin Family Clinic. Perhaps it was because he was too handsome and accompanied Doctor Lin shopping, that he was retaliated by assassins hired by the demon bandits..."

When Linghu Qingmo saw that it was related to the demon bandits, he immediately became serious and walked out:
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Xie Jinhuan wasn't hurt, right?"

Yang Dabiao spread out his hands: "Lord Linghu may be praising Fu Dongping a bit too much. You can't even bear it for a moment, how can Fu Dongping touch the edge of his clothes?"

"..."

Linghu Qingmo thought about it and said inexplicably:
"What's wrong with the demon bandit? Hiring such a small fry to kill Xie Jinhuan?"

"I guess they wanted to poison him, but when that didn't work, they resorted to surgery. Xie Jinhuan is fine, but Doctor Lin seems to have been poisoned..."

"Where are they?"

"Back to Qingquan Lane. I was just about to go over and take a look..."

"Liu Qingzhi, bring the antidote."

"Yes."

……

It’s true that I’m running out of drafts or2!
