Rivers and lakes in another world

Chapter 663 News
Although the corresponding person had already been taken away, the inspectors could still infer the appearance of the scene from the bloodstains left at the scene and the general location of the deceased.

One surprising discovery was that these people should have been attacked from behind. The deceased were almost defenseless and did not struggle or resist.

Obviously, they have not experienced fierce battles. If it is Yuma, if they have enmity, will they get along peacefully after meeting?Would the dead who rushed from behind not respond?Obviously impossible.

It should be an acquaintance who committed the crime.

At the very least, it should be a familiar force. Because they are familiar with each other, they dared to let them approach. Then when the two sides were talking or moving forward, that group of people suddenly attacked, and they attacked the dead. They were sure and fast.

The deceased did not take precautions at all, and was killed on the spot after hitting a vital point.

Judging from the bloodstains at the scene, the amount of bleeding is not small, and the bloodstains are in the shape of splashes, which are usually formed after encountering a huge impact, and are usually large blunt objects.

It doesn't match the traces of the saber left on his body. It's hard to imagine that Yuma, a horse bandit who comes and goes without a trace, holds a saber in one hand and uses a blunt weapon like a sledgehammer in the other. The level of horse bandits is so high now up?All of them are dual wielding weapons?Berserker horse bandit knight?

And the most important head is gone.

This is very important evidence.

Yuanwu Continent wants to investigate the cause of death, in addition to the means of observation outside, it will also directly ask the deceased.

Of course not the supernatural kind.

Instead, stimulate the brain through the human head to see if some memory fragments can be obtained.

At the same time, it can also be identified whether it is the party involved.

Because it is not ruled out that some people estimate that they have escaped by feigning death and using other people's corpses to disguise themselves as examples.

Obviously, the person who did it was very professional, and I'm afraid they did it to find the corresponding clues.

But if there is absolutely no need to leave Yuma's threatening blood on the scene for the sake of secrecy, it will look like a frame-up.

Perhaps it was another third party's power, or a certain family's power in Liaoxi County took this opportunity to weaken others and let Yuma take the blame and get rid of it.

If such a bold inference is made, the party that ultimately benefits may be suspected.

Of course, this is just speculation by Chen Zheng and the others, and there is no real evidence.

Who are the beneficiaries of such an approach?

Undoubtedly, it was the Shi family.

It may seem impossible before and after.

But if you look beyond the identity of the parties involved.

The first Shi family reacted too positively. If they were really kind, why didn't they wipe out Yuma immediately after it first appeared and even grew, but now show their kindness.

The second consecutive interceptions affected the Shi family's reputation.

Many people began to imagine the conflict between Shijia and Yuma.The leading family was also suppressed by Yuma and so on.

There is a lot of gloating, and few people will feel sympathy.

If Yuma continues to harass for a long time, it will definitely affect the Shi family.

Even some forces that have conflicts on weekdays may take advantage of this time to stumble.

There may be very few lending a helping hand in the environment of Liaoxi County, because business is relatively prosperous, so it is normal for various forces to have conflicts in the industry.

With foreign enemies, their first thought is not to resist, but to take this opportunity to devour others.

Don't add insult to injury to your competitors, but lend a helping hand.

Very few people make that choice.

Therefore, it is not impossible to take advantage of this opportunity to weaken some opponents.

However, one of the forces under attack had a conflict with the Shi family, and the others were good partners. It was hard to believe that the Shi family would attack them.

However, there are two related people who cannot be avoided.

Yuma and the Shi family.

I contacted the nails that were driven into Yuma. Recently, they have been on a mission, but they only attacked the Shi family. As for the reason, they haven't found out yet.

The only thing I can know is the command given above.

You just need to know who is the target to kill, but why you want to kill him, you don't know and don't need to ask.

This is the old tradition of Yuma, and it is also the words of Yuma's leader.

Interestingly, the leader of Yuma is called Yuma, and this faction was established based on his name.

But Nail thinks this should be a pseudonym.

Because of his low status, he hadn't seen Yuma yet.

But from the point of view of those old horse bandits, it is obvious that they have a certain charisma, otherwise there would not be so many loyal people.

It can be said that he obeys Yuma's words.

No one would gossip about the leader behind his back, and it was hard to imagine such a person among the bandits.

It's not that kind of false loyalty, but that these horse bandits really regard Yuma as the object of allegiance.

As long as it was Yuma's order, they would execute it without hesitation, instead of wondering why they did it.

The life inside the horse bandits is relatively boring, that is, training, going out to plunder, eating and resting, etc.

I don't know where such a large number of looted goods are.

In Naizi's eyes, the people who roamed the horses did not look like robbers, but instead thought they were practitioners living ascetic monks' lives.

It's hard to imagine how such a group of bandits was formed, it's a bit out of place.

Judging from what they have done, it is true that many families have been severely hit.

They are not good people, no matter what the purpose of Yuma and the others is, the moment their hands are stained with blood, they can't be washed clean.

Then Chen Zheng asked Shen Kuo to continue to find a way to investigate from Yuma's group of people while ensuring Nail's safety.

I pretended to be a casual cultivator and sneaked into the Shi family's application team, trying to find a way to find out if there was any news about the Shi family.

The efficiency of sitting in place and waiting for news may not be as fast as that of the front line.

As for Pei Zuiji and Yelu Maitreya, they are temporarily helping Shen Kuo here.

Even with disguise props, their outfits are not as safe as Chen Zhenglai.

With a disguise mask, Chen Zheng is a completely new identity, which outsiders can't think of.

After discussing to continue to inquire about more useful news, the two sides began to act.

However, there is one core point that cannot be bypassed, and that is to solve Yuma.

This gangster is indeed a hidden danger to society.

Both emotion and reason should be eradicated.

As for the possible reasons and stories behind them, they can only fade away with time.

After going out, Chen Zheng found a secluded place and put on a disguise mask.

The once black-faced big man appeared again.

Relying on his cultivation in the late stage of Zhou Tianjing, he can enter the team of casual cultivators recruited by the Shi family without too many assessments.

The Shi family's external recruitment is very simple, there are no extra steps, as long as the cultivation level passes the test, it will be ok to pay part of the salary on the spot and the rest will be paid at the end of the battle.

At the same time, the Shi family also prepared a resting place for these casual cultivators.

It was a manor used by the Shi family for loading goods, and it was converted into a residence in a short period of time.

That is to add some bed boards, bedding and the like.

The place Chen Zheng was assigned was the former firewood shed, but now it has become a two-person room. Because the place is remote and relatively small, many people are not willing to stay. Those who arrive late will naturally not have a good seat.

Moreover, Chen Zheng came alone, and he was a group of several people with their families.

At this time, the Lone Ranger is at a huge disadvantage.

Living in the same house as Chen Zheng was a man who looked about 40 to [-] years old.

Also a loner.He used a long sword and carried a wine gourd by his side.

I'm sorry that this outfit looks familiar.

The one who wants to pursue Tama-shin is dressed like this.

But he is a fairy, a wanderer of the rivers and lakes.

The uncle in front of Chen Zheng was a bit sloppy.

His hair was messy and he smelled of alcohol.

But consciousness is still very clear, is a familiar.

The name is Zhang Huan.He arrived one step ahead of Chen Zheng, and chatted briefly with Chen Zheng's older brother as soon as he came in.

His cultivation base is comparable to that of Chen Zheng.

Also do a good job.

There is a kitchen in this manor, and casual practitioners can eat meals prepared by Shi's family, or cook by themselves.

Zhang Huan and Chen Zheng chatted so intimately that they became greedy while talking.If you want to drink, can there be no appetizers for this drink?
Zhang Huan, an old alcoholic, is also skilled, so he quickly cooked up a few side dishes to serve with the wine, and chatted with Chen Zheng at the same time.

Chen Zheng and Zhang Huan chatting so happily are not wasting time but doing business.

Through self-introduction, Chen Zheng learned that Zhang Huan is a native of Liaoxi County and has lived there for 42 years.

Since he was born in Liaoxi County, he has never left Liaoxi County for half a step.

Whether you say he lives in a house or loves the soil, he is an old fritter from western Liaoning anyway.

It looks sloppy, it's just that he doesn't want to take care of it, and he still lives a good life.

From the small dishes that are made, you know that they are of a certain standard, and you are not someone who is worried about the next meal after eating.

As a veteran of more than 40 years, Zhang Huan knows a thing or two about everything in Liaoxi County.

It can be said that Zhang Huan knew a lot of gossip and other things that came out of the family, and he started to show off in front of Chen Zheng.

And Chen Zheng just wanted to inquire about the corresponding news, so he naturally accompanied him, and let him enjoy himself, and he would tell more news.

Chen Zheng mainly wanted to ask the Shi family.He said that he was a foreigner, and came here only when he happened to be recruited by the Shi family. He didn't know if he would give the money as promised, and so on, which fully demonstrated his distrust of the Shi family as a casual martial artist. .

I took this opportunity to ask Zhang Huan about the Shi family's news, and wanted to confirm what I learned from Shen Kuo.

Zhang Huan laughed loudly when he heard this, "Brother Chen, there is no need to worry. The Shi family is the leader, but it still started in business. They value their credibility and will never do anything to default on their debts. You can see that the deposit is quite large, let alone It’s done.”

"I have had the experience of being cheated outside, so I am a little cautious. The Shi family can really afford to have so many people pay for it. Is it a big family in Liaoxi County?" Chen Zheng tried to bring the topic to the Shi family.

"Oh, brother, if you ask others, you may not be clear. Brother, I can say that I have seen the Shi family for 40 years. I have no clearer than me. I have to talk to you." After popularizing the Shi family, there are many things that Chen Zheng understands, and some of them are exaggerated by Zhang Huan, but it is undeniable that what Zhang Huan said is relatively accurate.

There were even some gossip secrets that Shen Kuo didn't find out.

After inquiring about the source, I found out that Zhang Huan, relying on his talk and drinking ability, has many bad friends. They hang out in the city and hardly do any work. They just idle around every day, looking here and there.Very laid back.

At the same time, these people naturally knew about all kinds of news coming out.

Therefore, the source and authenticity of the news are considered reliable.

These idlers have nothing to do, and all kinds of news are to fill their spiritual world appetite.

Zhang Huan praised many things about the Shi family.

Because the Shi family's reputation is indeed very good, and all kinds of things they do can be said to be very clear, and there is nothing inappropriate.

Even if it is to the competitors, it is not completely killed.

Zhang Huan thought it was Yuma's bad luck that the Shi family had such a big reaction this time.

He provoked the Shi family at a very special point, and he didn't care that the Shi family had such a big reaction.

Chen Zheng realized that this might be the news he had always wanted to know.

Zhang Huan sighed, looked around and saw that there was no one outside, then he leaned into Chen Zheng's ear and whispered to Chen Zheng, "Just a month ago, the eldest lady of the Shi family died. Do you know this?" Not many, but there were indeed people in the Shi family who were doing dirty work. After asking several times, everyone found out that Miss Shi's family was missing. As a result, the person who leaked the news was severely punished, and the Shi family also denied it. But we all know that. This is probably true, so don't tell the outside world that I said it. Otherwise, the Shi family will definitely let me go around."

"Oh, I know, I know, Brother Zhang, you continue to say, I will definitely not tell others, so there is such a big event, please give me some pointers." Chen Zheng quickly patted his chest and promised, of course, he would not let others know , I will only tell my own people that this is not a violation of the rules.

After Zhang Huan made sure that no one was watching, he told the story through the wine and food.

The number of times this Miss Shi's family appeared in front of people was very rare, and everyone saw sporadically that she was well protected by the Shi's family.

When he appeared in front of everyone just a few times, he showed an astonishing face, which made many people who had seen him forget about food and tea.

It's good for outsiders to look at it. This can only be a dream lover, not a real wife. If you want to eat peaches, it's great.

Moreover, people who have retired from the Shi family can also confirm that there is indeed the existence of the eldest lady. It can be said that she is the treasure of the Shi family, and she is taken care of very considerately.

I heard that this eldest lady is also gentle and gentle, she is so amiable and gentle to people and things, just like a woman made of water.
