I am a living immortal.

After eating and drinking her fill, Su Mu prepared to have a good sleep tonight.

Even though Su Mu was able to meditate and practice life cultivation, he was exhausted from the long journey these days.

The room is very small. Blowing out the kerosene lamp and listening to the chirping of cicadas and frogs outside the window is a good lullaby.

Soon he fell into a state of meditation.

The mind is calm, the breathing becomes smooth and regular, and the Qi in the body flows smoothly throughout the body. This is both cultivation and rest.

In the dead of night, the old goat lay in the stable. The waiter had never seen anyone traveling with a goat alone. A pet? A mount? In the end, it had no choice but to be kept with the horse. It was almost the same anyway.

In the middle of the night, the old goat suddenly raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the stable.

All I could hear were a few tiny sounds tapping on the straw on the ceiling, very light but definitely not the wind.

With two "pa pa" movements, he took advantage of the momentum and stepped into the air.

The purpose of this group of people was obviously not to steal horses, as they left in the direction of the nearby inn!

The old goat thought about it and continued to lie down and go back to sleep. Even if the sky fell, it would not be his turn to take care of it.

Four people were standing on the roof of the inn.

The four men wore the same black nightgown and held a sharp knife in their hands. They just looked at each other and then took action. They moved like ghosts and headed in one direction.

In the darkness, Su Mu opened her eyes.

It seems that this group of people clearly has a target, and the target seems to be the people in the two carriages during the day.

The moment the assassins killed the two guards, they were counterattacked by other guards. The sound of hand-to-hand combat was harsh and loud in the dark night.

The swords and knives clashed with each other.

However, despite the commotion, no one moved. You might think that everyone would get excited and rush over to help by drawing their swords. But only a young man who has just entered the martial arts world would do that.

The actual situation is none of my business. You are not related to me, and you are playing with your own life? You are out of your mind.

Most people wait until there is no sound.

Only when the brave waiter yells will everyone rush out to pretend to be safe. But if this really happens, the bodies will be cold by the time others come to rescue them.

Of course there is another possibility.

Suddenly, a powerful voice echoed throughout the inn: "Kill a thief and you will be rewarded fifty silver coins. Capture a thief and you will be rewarded one hundred silver coins."

That's the other case.

The benefits are exciting.

In an instant, the people who had just been "soundly asleep" were awakened by the fifty taels of silver in the blink of an eye. One by one, they spoke in high-sounding words, "I'm here to help you!" as if they were not the ones pretending to be asleep.

Of course making money isn't shabby.

Su Mu didn't want to join in the fun, but everyone was moving, and if you didn't move, you would be the odd one out. It was just right, you could watch the fun and maybe even make some extra money, killing two birds with one stone.

Followed by a large group of people pouring into the room.

Some quick-footed people had already started fighting with the assassins, and the entire inn was in chaos. Su Mu wandered among the crowd, looking for a good target.

These assassins were not stupid. They fought and retreated at the same time and were about to reach the window.

"Don't let them get away!!"

Someone shouted, and the next moment, Su Mu picked up a long knife and threw it out at a tricky angle!

With a "puff", one of the assassins was pierced and nailed to the wall without warning. The others were hit by others in the moment they were stunned. Seeing that they could not escape, they were about to commit suicide. Some experienced martial artists saw this and pinched the lower jaw of the assassin who was holding his breath at the moment, and reached out to remove the poison sac from his mouth.

The assassination came to an end.

There were four assassins in total. One was killed by the guards, one was killed by Su Mu, and the remaining two, one died of poisoning, and the other survived.

The middle-aged man did not break his promise.

The reward was paid out on the spot, and the matter was settled. This amount of money was nothing to a wealthy family.

.........

I thought the matter was settled.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, a group of soldiers rudely pushed open Su Mu's room.

“Get up, get up!!”

"I don't think I have offended any of you officials, right?" Su Mu stood up calmly.

The two soldiers were intimidated by Su Mu's calmness, and then said impatiently: "We will know whether you have done anything wrong when the time comes. Come with us!"

"What if I say no?" Su Mu had roughly guessed that it was not easy to earn these fifty taels. It was obvious that this group of officers and soldiers regarded him as a fat sheep.

"No? I'm not discussing this with you!! You are involved in this case, and resisting arrest is a serious crime. Just follow us if you know what's good for you!" The two officers and soldiers looked at each other and were about to attack with ferocious eyes. As long as they caught this fool and framed him with a crime, they would get fifty taels of silver, which was enough for them to live a carefree life for several days.

Fifty taels is not too much, but not too little either.

Most big shots wouldn't care, only a few losers would do that. And they're just brainless losers, so impatient? Shouldn't they wait until they leave the inn before stopping them?

The reward money given out last night was stolen this morning.

This slap was not on Su Mu's face, but on the face of the person who gave the money. For these wealthy families, this face was more valuable than fifty taels.

Su Mu looked the two of them up and down with a look of pity, took a step back, dodged the one who was trying to grab her, and shouted loudly: "I want to see the authorities, I am innocent!!"

The pitying look and loud shouting directly annoyed the two men. What they had done was shameful to begin with. If it was exposed, they would be punished. Damn it, why couldn't they just surrender and let him catch them!

"What are you yelling about! Are you going to defy the imperial court?!" With that, the two men drew their swords with a swish.

"Today, even if you don't want to leave, you have to leave us! Boy, if you don't accept the toast, you will be punished. Be smart..."

Before he could finish his words, Su Mu clenched his fist and threw a punch.

With a loud "bang!!!" the officer who spoke was instantly sent flying and hit the wall heavily. He spat out a mouthful of blood and his internal organs were in pain.

The loud noise immediately attracted a lot of people to watch.

Su Mu cast his gaze on another soldier, patted his pale face, and asked, "Do you still want the fifty taels? Do you still want to go with you?"

"How dare you...you are blatantly..." Obviously, the officer was frightened by Su Mu's sudden action.

"Why would you be so afraid? Do you really think you're that important? To put it nicely, I call you 'officials,' but to put it bluntly, who the hell are you? You're trying to blackmail me?"

Su Mu sneered, patted her body, smoothed her clothes, and walked out ignoring the man.

Looking at the vicious look in the eyes of the officer who was holding his stomach outside the room, he kicked him in the face again, and his teeth and blood foam flew everywhere.

"You're lucky. Next time, I'll kill you." The calm tone carried a hint of murderous intent.

The entire corridor felt the low pressure and was silent.

Inspired by this murderous aura, the officers and soldiers in the room lost their grip on their knives and dropped them to the ground, collapsing on the spot.

Just because Su Mu doesn't cause trouble doesn't mean he's afraid of it.

I walked to the hall, took out five taels of silver and stuffed it into the shopkeeper's hand, asking him to help clean up the upstairs.

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, then winked at the waiter, asking him to bring the customer's sheep over.

However, before the waiter could go and take it.

The old goat was already waiting at the door of the inn. Su Mu climbed onto the goat and left.

The middle-aged man who was watching the whole process sighed at this scene: "This is a capable person. Young people nowadays are really amazing."

"Oh? Steward Tong, are you optimistic about him?" The person who spoke was the one who was assassinated yesterday. He was a young man, only a few years older than Su Mu.

"Yes, Master Chuzhou, it's a pity that the Chu family is in the spotlight right now, otherwise you could have recruited some."
