Jidao: I have ten equipment slots

Chapter 1 [001] Gu Zheng

The wind is cold and the sky and earth are vast.

Before the arrival of winter, snowflakes like willow catkins began to float on the land of Qingshi County.

Gu Zheng was wearing a dark black robe with a big word "Bu" on his chest. He walked quickly on the street with a frown on his face.

There was a tall mansion ahead, and shouts could be heard from inside from time to time.

Gu Zheng walked over and just as he reached the door, the doorman quickly opened the door, stood aside respectfully, bowed and called out, "Young Master."

"Ah."

Gu Zheng nodded and strode into the door.

As soon as they entered, they saw a group of guards holding knives in their hands, with bows and arrows on their backs, and a large piece of iron tied close to their chest and back, connected by wires.

Every guard had a solemn look on their face, their eyes were serious and there was a hint of nervousness. They patrolled in groups of two.

Seeing Gu Zheng, they all shouted.

"Young Master!"

"I've met the eldest young master."

……

"Yes." Gu Zheng nodded as he walked, and asked in a deep voice, "If there is any abnormality, report it immediately. Do you understand?"

"Listen clearly!"

The guards who had shouted responded in unison.

"My son, what happened?"

In the main hall, Gu Sihai heard the shouting and hurried out to meet Gu Zheng, wondering, "Why are you making the family so nervous for no reason? Is there a bad guy who is planning to attack our Gu Mansion?"

"No."

Gu Zheng said calmly, "Dad, please take good care of the house. Don't let Gu Feng, Gu Xue and the others go out these few days. I will take care of what's going on outside."

"……Row."

Gu Sihai sighed, "I'll listen to you. But you also have to pay attention to safety. Protecting yourself is the most important thing when you encounter danger."

"I will."

Gu Zheng nodded heavily, but his frown never relaxed.

If it weren't for the sudden change, he wouldn't want to make the atmosphere at home tense.

It has been twenty-one years since I was reincarnated into this ancient feudal world.

Before this, Gu Zheng was very sure that this was a low-level martial arts world.

Although a martial artist, when his skills have been practiced to a certain level, can fight ten people at once, even the strongest among them, a martial artist at the Grandmaster level, would have to flee in a panic when faced with a siege by a squad of ten soldiers wearing iron armor and holding powerful crossbows.

The Gu family that Gu Zheng was reincarnated into is a wealthy family in Qingshi County with a strong financial background. As the eldest son, Gu Zheng could have been a well-off young man with no worries about food and clothing. However, because he had a dream of being a martial arts hero in his previous life, he chose to practice martial arts, and he had a good talent for it.

With the support of the Gu family's huge wealth, Gu Zheng became a first-class master in less than ten years of martial arts training.

After that, it was only after the Qingshi County Government invited him many times that he became a constable.

Because the government offered the condition of providing master-level skills.

It just takes time, and requires enough merit to get it from the higher authorities.

Thus, Gu Zheng served as the chief constable for half a year, and there was peace and tranquility inside and outside Qingshi City.

If nothing unexpected happens, he, a rich second-generation, martial arts master, and criminal police captain, can live a comfortable life here.

But three days ago, something strange happened.

……

"Let me go, you guys let me go!"

Hearing a suppressed shout, Gu Zheng turned around and saw a boy of about sixteen or seventeen being grabbed by the arms by two guards and being quickly escorted over.

"Dad, please let them let me go." The young man looked at Gu Sihai, struggling and shouting.

As for Gu Zheng, I didn't even dare to look at him.

"You want to sneak out again?" Gu Sihai's round face darkened and he shouted, "How many times have I told you not to go out these few days! Are you deaf or have you lost your mind?"

"I……"

"You what? You still want to talk back?"

Gu Sihai said in a deep voice, "Go back to your room! If you try to run away again, I will break your legs myself!"

"..." Gu Feng opened his mouth but didn't dare to say anything else.

Gu Zheng ignored him and turned to walk towards the yard where he lived.

But at this moment, a servant came running towards the gate. "Master, there is a constable looking for you. It seems to be urgent..."

shuh~
Without waiting for the servant to finish speaking, Gu Zheng rushed towards the door at full speed.

Seeing this scene, Gu Sihai's brows furrowed even deeper.

"What happened?"

……

"Boss! We found another one..."

Outside the gate of Gu's house, a young constable saw Gu Zheng coming out and hurried over to explain.

Gu Zheng, however, did not stop walking and waved his hand, saying, "We can talk while we walk."

"it is good."

The young detective, Han Ming, took a deep breath, relaxed his tense mind a little, followed Gu Zheng, and said as they walked quickly, "This time it's a family in Daliushu Lane, Pingchangfang. The chests and abdomens of the four members of the family were hollowed out, and all their internal organs were missing..."

Disappeared again?

Gu Zheng's face was solemn, he frowned and said nothing.

After Han Ming finished speaking, he also fell silent.

The two of them ran quickly and came to Pingchangfang, Daliushu Lane, and walked into a small courtyard surrounded by a crowd of people.

In the yard, several constables were guarding the door with pale faces. When they saw Gu Zheng coming, they hurriedly greeted him.

"Boss, you're here."

"Gu Tou, the body is in the house and has not been moved."

"..."

"Drive out everyone outside." Gu Zheng kept walking, with a sullen face, and gave the order, striding into the room that reeked of blood.

I saw two mutilated bodies lying on the floor of the main room at the entrance.

A male corpse, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, had one arm and one thigh torn off and dropped in a corner. The man's mouth was wide open, his face full of fear, and in his completely open chest, apart from the intestines stretched out on the ground, there was no sign of other organs.

The same was true of another female corpse. There was a big hole in her neck, her head had fallen and rolled to the side, her chest and abdomen were wide open, the wounds on the edges were torn and messy, and all the internal organs were gone.

The walls and the ground were covered with splattered blood.

Gu Zheng held his breath, glanced at the corpse, and searched the corners carefully.

Suddenly, two drops of dark, sticky, black and red blood were seen in the corner of the wall.

Gu Zheng immediately walked over, squatted down, and touched the blood bead with his fingers.

snort~
As if being burned by fire, a stinging pain came from the fingers.

The scarlet blood bead actually sank directly into Gu Zheng's finger and disappeared.

[Demon Points +1]

A reminder flashed before my eyes.

Gu Zheng remained calm and touched the second drop of blood with his finger.

Suddenly, the burning and stinging sensation came again, then disappeared, and the blood beads sank into the fingertips.

[Demon Points +1]

After picking up the two drops of blood, Gu Zheng stood up, enduring the subsequent pain on his fingers, and an idea came to his mind.

【Strength: 10/10】

Below that are two rows of light blue grids, like the equipment bar in a game, ten in total.

Nine of them were empty, and one contained a black and red blood bead.
