If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 356 Night Kill
Hao Ruhai really wasn't bragging.

He had lived for most of his life and had never experienced the feeling of being robbed.

He almost used his poison skills to condense a human immortal elixir, and even his farts could become poisonous gas that could kill everyone in a room. He took off his clothes and threw them into the river, and all the fish and shrimps died as they flowed downstream for nearly ten miles.

Even if a thief could get close to him quietly, he would poison himself before stealing his belongings.

But today he finally experienced the feeling of being robbed: shock, anger, shame, heat, confusion, tension, fear.
That taste is so sour and refreshing.

When Aunt Liu found him, he was still in a feverish state and was furious. He scolded his younger brother for being blind and letting the thief get close to him and steal the gold notes, and also scolded the thief for being so bold as to dare to touch such a scoundrel.

"Don't let me know who he is, or I'll make him suffer a fate worse than death."

Hearing him calling out like that, Aunt Liu, who had already walked to the door, hesitated for a moment: This idiot didn't even suspect Xiao Fengxian? Should I still tell him about the gold note?
If you take the gold note to Huitong Money House, your identity will definitely be exposed.

By now Hao Ruhai should have sent someone to notify the bank manager.

But to use gold notes, you don’t have to go to Huitong Money House.

Just as Hao Ruhai planned to use the gold notes to buy Zhu Lingling, Aunt Liu was able to launder the two thousand five hundred gold, leaving Hao Ruhai completely unaware of who stole the gold notes and who spent them.

"Liu San, you're here just in time. I want to ask you something."

Aunt Liu was still hesitating. When Hao Ruhai saw her coming in, he immediately strode forward and stared at her with eagle-like sharp eyes. "Has Yu Fengxian mastered the secret technique of stealing other people's things silently?"

——This fellow still doubted Xiao Fengxian! It should be that his warrior instinct told him that there was something wrong with Xiao Fengxian, but his reason kept denying this conjecture.

Aunt Liu understood clearly, but remained calm and asked, "What did you lose?"

"Gold notes, the gold notes I took out in public." Hao Ruhai said.

"Why do you suspect Xiao Fengxian?" she asked.

When Hao Ruhai heard this, confusion and entanglement appeared on his rough face, "Except her, I can't think of anyone else.

But I was very sober at the time and even wary of her.

There were more than a dozen people between her and me, and she didn’t touch me at all.”

Aunt Liu took out the stack of gold notes from her bosom and asked, "Is this it?"

Hao Ruhai's pupils contracted, and he quickly snatched the gold note and quickly looked through it, shocked and confused, "How did my gold note get into your hands?"

"Xiao Fengxian stole it and used the money to pay the bill." Aunt Liu said.

Hao Ruhai's expression changed several times, and he said, "I didn't sense any fluctuations in the vitality of heaven and earth."

Sensing the fluctuations of vital energy is not a talent exclusive to "immortals".

When a warrior reaches the True Essence realm, the internal force in the body and the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth outside the body form a large circulation, which allows them to absorb the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth and, of course, they are also very sensitive to it.

Hao Ruhai is the "big boss of the Zhenyuan realm".

Aunt Liu shook her head and said, “She used your gold note to pay the bill, and I found the mark on the note.

She freely admitted to stealing your money, but she didn't explain how.

Even if you explain it, I probably still won’t understand.

I only know that move is called 'Black Dragon Claw'."

After a pause, she continued, “Actually, you don’t need to make a fuss.

The Thousand-Armed Thief even took out my liver, and I was completely unaware.

She just stole your money, which is far worse than the Thousand-Handed Thief."

"How dare she steal my money and admit it so openly?" Hao Ruhai said gritting his teeth.

"What can you do with her?"

Aunt Liu stretched out her hand and snatched the gold note from his hand, saying, "You shouted loudly in the street, making everyone in the city know that I took 2,500 gold from Xiao Fengxian.

You know the rules. The money recorded in the account is the prince's money, not a cent less."

Hao Ruhai glanced at the gold ticket, a look of pain flashed in his eyes, but he did not fight for it.

"Where is Yu Fengxian now?" he asked.

Aunt Liu said, "See Zhu Lingling off outside the city."

Hao Ruhai narrowed his eyes and said, "See you off? Where?"

Aunt Liu said, "The Zhu Yitao couple died tragically. Zhu Lingling wanted to carry the coffin back home, but Xiao Fengxian only sent her to Sanli Pavilion."

"She spent 2,500 gold to buy Miss Zhu, and then let her go for nothing?" Hao Ruhai said angrily.

Aunt Liu sighed, "Why did you buy Zhu Lingling?"

"I want Zhu Yi to have no peace in his grave." said Hao Ruhai.

"Xiao Fengxian redeemed Zhu Lingling in order for Zhu Yitao to rest in peace in the underworld." Aunt Liu said.

"Okay, very good." Hao Ruhai smiled.

Aunt Liu saw a fierce look flash across his eyes.

After much hesitation, she finally gave him some advice, "Zhu Yitao was wrongly killed, his wife was almost raped by the police, and his concubine Zhang had already lost her virginity. Zhu Yitao's family is in great misery."

Hao Ruhai frowned and said, "Zhu Yitao also beat you and humiliated you, and Yu Fengxian was also convicted of the crime of setting up a position by him."

Aunt Liu sighed, "I can't control Xiao Fengxian. As for myself, I just want to accumulate some good karma."

They had never had a good relationship to begin with, and now that things had come to this, there was nothing more to say.

With nothing to say, Aunt Liu said goodbye and left.

Watching her back disappearing out the door, a look of ruthlessness and determination emerged on Hao Ruhai's rough face.

"Zhang Wu!"

A black-clad warrior walked in quickly from the courtyard and clasped his fists in response, "Master, what do you want?"

"Leave the city immediately and catch up with Zhu Lingling's convoy. Follow them from a distance and determine their location, but don't alert the enemy." Hao Ruhai said.

In Western Shu there were two ways of selecting officials: the hereditary aristocracy and the recommendation system.

The system of hereditary aristocracy, as the name suggests, means that the nobles are passed down from generation to generation, with the son inheriting the family name after the father's death.

For example, the Lord of Yingxiang Mansion at this time is from the Wen family.

Zhu Yitao became a county magistrate through the system of recommendation.

He first entered the local academy to study, achieved academic success, obtained the status of a scholar, made a name for himself, was recommended by great scholars and local officials, entered Luodu, and was finally arranged to be the county magistrate of Tianmen Town.

His hometown, Zhangyi County, Dongshan County, is far away from Tianmen Town, Yingxiang Prefecture, and neither far nor close to Luodu. It is located northwest of Luodu.

To return home, Zhu Lingling had to travel west, a distance of about two thousand miles.

After three o'clock in the morning, they were fifty miles away from Yingxiang Prefecture.

Xiaoyu reminded them that in the first three days, it didn't matter if they were a little tired, they must try to walk as far as possible, stay away from Yingxiang Mansion, and not go to Luodu.

They listened.

At this moment, the people were shaken so hard that their bones were about to fall apart, and the horses were so tired that they were foaming at the mouth, but they still kept walking at night with lanterns.

A warrior on horseback led the way, followed by three carriages, and several knights protecting them.

Fortunately, Yingxiang Prefecture is a strategic location with flat and wide roads in the east, west, south and north. If it were in the wilderness, even with a lantern, I would not dare to walk at night.

"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~"

Suddenly, the night wind brought some strange sounds, as if several arrows pierced through the air and were approaching the convoy rapidly.

Song Dazhi grabbed the reins, stopped and listened carefully, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Stop, everyone stop, someone is coming."

As the other knights made their move, another voice floated into everyone's ears, "No need to stop, keep going."

The sound was hidden in the wind, floating from all directions, and it was impossible to tell its direction, but the sound was very clear and everyone could recognize its owner.

"Fairy Yu?"

"It's Fairy Yu! It turns out she has been protecting us in secret."

Even Zhu Lingling who was in the carriage stuck her head out of the window and looked around.

"It's me, you guys keep going." Xiaoyu responded to them but did not show up.

"Let's go! Continue~~" Song Dazhi didn't say the stupid thing about staying to fight the enemy with her.

The others didn't waste any time talking, but instead quickened their pace and walked even faster.

They had only walked less than fifty meters when three masked warriors in black, holding swords and as fast as galloping horses, came chasing them from behind.

The three warriors were all masters of Qing Kung Fu. Their speed was faster than that of a galloping horse, but they did not leave any footsteps on the hard ground.

Instead, the sound of clothes tearing the air was more obvious.

"go back."

“Hoohoohoo—Hua La La~~~”

As soon as the voice of "go back" reached my ears, a fierce black wind that stung my flesh blew towards me.

It wasn't freezing cold, but it felt like the wind was filled with tiny needles that prickled my skin and hurt when it blew against my body.

This is not an ordinary wind, it is the "black wind" of Tiger Lord.

Although the three warriors were caught off guard, they all used their true Qi to protect their bodies and stabilized their bodies, so as not to be blown away by the strong wind.

"Don't tear your faces apart, it will make things difficult for everyone - Hey, Lan Lao Er, you bastard, you're here too, Xiao Qiang, bite him to death!"

The three men had their faces covered. Xiao Yu didn't take them seriously at first and didn't look at them closely.

At this moment, Heifeng lifted their scarves, revealing Lan Ruomei's burned face as the "DC Two-Faced Man", and Xiaoyu recognized him immediately.

"Master, didn't you say that we should just warn them and scare them away?"

Xiaoqiang jumped out from the darkness. He was as big as a lion, his body was made up of eerie black air, and his big eyes on the rim of the cup were bright red, like two ghost lanterns from the underworld.

Although it jumped out obediently, it did not pounce on it immediately.

"Stop talking nonsense and kill him!"

After receiving the confirmed order, Xiaoqiang no longer hesitated and pounced towards the thin masked man on the left like a tiger.

"What the hell~~"

Although the three were shocked, they remained calm. One of them swung his knife directly and chopped, while the other two assisted from the side.

The blades of the knives and swords both glowed with the faint fluorescence of true energy.

"Clang~~~" The swords passed by, but did not hit any solid objects, instead they collided with each other.

The black shadow disappeared in an instant, and took the ghost path again, appearing behind Lan Ruomei like teleporting.

He opened his bloody mouth and took in half of the skinny swordsman's body from top to bottom.

"Puchi~~~" Like cutting vegetables with a sharp knife, the swordsman's body was broken into two pieces, with his lower body even still standing on the ground, with only blood and organ fragments spraying from the broken ends.

"Ah, third brother!"

The other two roared in anger and swung their swords and knives even more wildly.

"Master, are you still giving me a 'warning'?" Xiao Qiang barked.

"Oh, it's come to this, why warn me? Just bite them all to death." Xiaoyu's sigh was heard in the wind.

It's really not her fault, it's all their fault for insisting on bringing Lan Ruomei here. It doesn't seem to be Lan Ruomei's fault either, the other two are the boss and the second in command who don't want to return home, and they are not good people either.

If the person coming is someone else, Xiaoyu will follow the original plan and let Xiaoqiang show up to scare the person away.

But she had long wanted to kill the "three beasts" who refused to return home, especially Lan Ruomei.

Now they are on the verge of a knife. If she puts away the knife, she will be angry to death.

"Master, why don't you do some divination. They came to kill people, and there is a cause and effect relationship between them and you. Perhaps you can get the approval of the Taoist Master." Xiao Qiang said.

"That makes sense. You should bite them to pieces first."

"Crack, crack~~" The black shadow flashed and moved back and forth, avoiding the swords and knives with sword energy and evil spirit. It jumped out from various tricky angles and bit off the hands and feet of the two men.

"Ahh~~~" Zhu Lingling's team, which had already gone far away, heard the shrill and endless howling.

"Sure enough, there are bad guys chasing us. Let's go!" They walked even faster.

After a while, Xiaoyu's somewhat confused and annoyed voice floated in the wind.

"These two pieces of trash still cannot satisfy Daozu. Xiaoqiang, kill them."

Just as Xiao Qiang was about to bite, he suddenly pricked up his ears and put on a posture of listening carefully, "Master, it seems that there are more people coming, a group of people."

"Elder, save me. Master, save me. There is a ghost, there is a ghost~~~" The two human sticks were still rolling on the ground and howling.

From the time Xiaoyu lost her limbs to the time she failed in throwing the divination blocks, they kept shouting.

"Could it really be reinforcements?" Xiaoqiang barked.

"Bite them to death first." Xiaoyu said lightly.

"Click, click!"

The heads of the two bosses of Bu Sigui disappeared from the neck, with uneven gaps and obvious bite marks from animal teeth.

From beginning to end, Xiaoyu never even showed her face.

After biting two people to death, Xiaoqiang spit out the heads and disappeared on the road under the moonlight.

After a while, another group of warriors came running along the avenue.

They were a mixed bunch, some were wearing black clothes and masks, some were not disguised at all, there were swordsmen wearing shorts and looking fierce, and there were also young men wearing gorgeous clothes and looking pampered.

"How could Zhu Yitao be so hated?" Xiaoyu was speechless.

This is obviously not a group of people.

He is not the same kind of person as the three leaders of Tianmenhui (Busigui).

They should be several forces that happened to come together.

But they all seem to have the same goal: to capture the last bloodline of Zhu Yituo.

But Zhu Yitao is just a county magistrate!
How come she has more enemies than her?
