The First Marquis of Daxuan

Chapter 14 Take action
The night is dark.

The sounds of fighting and shouting could be clearly heard coming from afar with the night wind.

All the doors in the alley were tightly closed, and no one came out to watch the fun.

Even if there were curious people, at most they would just be like Su Mu, lying down through the crack of the door and secretly looking out.

In today's world, curiosity can kill people, and ordinary people know that they should not join in the fun.

"It's from Nanjoji's direction."

Su Mu pricked up his ears and listened to the noise coming from afar, and was secretly frightened.

Although the world is in chaos, what is Nanchengsi?
How dare someone attack Nanchengsi?

Who is so bold?

Just as he was thinking about it, Su Mu suddenly saw a figure breaking into the alley.

With the help of the dim moonlight, Su Mu clearly saw that the figure quickly jumped into the house at the outermost part of the alley.

"It's the Liu family!"

Su Mu was startled and subconsciously wanted to open the door and rush out.

With both hands on the bolt, Su Mu stopped moving again.

With my limited swordsmanship, can I defeat the villain who dared to attack Nanchengsi at night?

If he rushed out like this, not only would he fail to save the Liu family, but he would also get himself involved.

"Perhaps, they are good people who rob the rich to help the poor. They won't necessarily hurt Liu Hai and his men. After all, Liu Hai is just an ordinary cook, not from a wealthy family."

Su Mu said to himself.

Thinking of this, Su Mu still felt a little uneasy. He quietly returned to the house and grabbed the mulberry wood bow beside the bed.

Carrying the quiver on his back, Su Mu carefully climbed onto the roof of his house.

Just after Su Mu climbed onto the roof, suddenly, a scream was heard from the Liu family's yard.

Lying on the roof, Su Mu saw a woman of about sixteen or seventeen running out of the room, and then was grabbed by the hair and pulled back roughly by a big hand.

Su Mu recognized that she was Liu Feng's cousin, and her name seemed to be Liu Hongyu.

His heart sank.

"Help!"

Just as Su Mu was hesitating whether to take action, a woman ran out of the room screaming.

As soon as she stepped halfway out of the room, a knife pierced her chest.

The screaming stopped abruptly, and the woman fell on the threshold, and her blood instantly dyed the ground red.

"What bad luck! I just want to hide for a while, but you force me to kill someone."

A thin figure stepped over the woman's body and appeared in the courtyard, holding a disheveled girl in his hand.

The girl struggled desperately, and her movements inevitably revealed her private parts.

The thin man with a scary blue birthmark on his face licked his tongue.

"Don't panic, little girl. I will take you back to the village after I send Xing away. I didn't expect to meet such a pretty girl this time. It's barely good enough for you to be my wife."

As he said that, he rubbed Liu Hongyu's butt with his big hands without any hesitation.

Just then, the sound of breaking wind was heard.

Xing Zhaofu had already rushed over with a few detectives upon hearing the noise.

"Kill me!"

He kicked the Liu family's door to pieces, roared, and rushed forward with a knife in hand.

The third in command of Black Dragon Village let out a strange cry and pushed Liu Hongyu forward.

Xing Zhaofu didn't hesitate at all, and his sword fell with a sharp sound, without caring about Liu Hongyu's life or death.

"I haven't played it yet, so I can't let you chop it like this, it's just a waste of resources!"

The third in command of Black Dragon Village screamed, picked up Liu Hongyu and jumped backwards, avoiding Xing Zhaofu's brutal knife.

At this time, the constables who followed Xing Zhaofu came from both sides, wielding their swords.

puff!
Even though the third in command of Black Dragon Village was very powerful, he was unable to avoid all the attacks.

Blood immediately appeared on the right shoulder, and the wound was deep enough to reach the bone.

Warriors at the Body Tempering Realm are still afraid of being besieged. If there are enough people, even ordinary people can pose a threat to them.

"More people, right? You have people under you, but I don't?"

Being hurt by the waste he despised, the third in command of Black Dragon Village became furious. He pursed his lips and let out a sharp whistle.

"Third Master!"

Shouts were heard from a distance, and several figures climbed over the wall and across the house to come to help.

But they still have a tail behind them.

They are all detectives from Nanchengsi.

"then!"

When the third in command of the Black Dragon Village saw a subordinate approaching, he threw Liu Hongyu, who was in his hand, and said, "Take my wife and go first. I will cover your retreat." There was a cold light in his eyes like a venomous snake.

Having suffered such a great loss today, he had to kill a few constables before leaving.

"Go ahead! Whoever kills him will get a reward of thirty taels of silver! If he dies, a compensation of one hundred taels of silver will be given!"

Xing Zhaofu didn't care about anyone else at all. He just stared at the third in command of Black Dragon Village and shouted.

There will always be brave men when there is a big reward, and the detectives rushed forward with shouts.

On the other side, the bandit from Black Dragon Village carried Liu Hongyu on his shoulders, and while the third in command attracted most people's attention, he quickly ran out of the city.

There are troops waiting for us in the village outside the city. We will be safe as long as we get out of the city.

He thought to himself, feeling the warmth and softness on her shoulder, and couldn't help licking it with his tongue.

The third in command is so lucky. I wonder if after he enjoys it, he will let his brothers have some fun too.

He didn't notice that in the darkness, a figure stood up on the roof.

hum!
The sound of bowstrings was drowned out by the noisy shouts and screams in the chaotic night and did not attract anyone's attention at all.

puff!
An arrow suddenly popped out of the throat of the bandit from Black Dragon Village, and his eyes bulged out suddenly.

He continued running and took two steps forward before falling to the ground with a thud.

Liu Hongyu was thrown to the ground, and then a heavy body pressed on her, pressing her so hard that her vision went black.

It took her several breaths to come back to her senses. She stretched out her hands and pushed away the corpse on top of her. Her hands felt slippery and when she looked closely, she saw they were covered in blood.

Her eyes rolled back and she fainted from fright.

Before closing her eyes, Liu Hongyu vaguely saw a familiar figure leap down from the roof, land in front of the bandit's body, and stretch out his hand.

The next moment, she knew nothing.

Su Mu glanced at Liu Hongyu, his heart calm, he quickly touched the corpse and pulled out the feather arrow from it.

Then he quickly disappeared into the darkness.

As for Liu Hongyu, I have already saved her once, so the rest depends on her luck.

…………

On the other side, the third in command of Black Dragon Village was covered in blood, and there were five or six corpses lying around him.

But there were seven or eight constables around, plus the chief constable Xing Zhaofu.

He didn't expect that these good-for-nothing constables would be so brave this time.

"Miscalculated! After setting the fire, we should have left the city as soon as possible and shouldn't have provoked Xing Zhaofu!"

He felt a little annoyed.

But it's too late to regret now.

Looking at Xing Zhaofu's attitude as if he had slept with his wife, the third in command knew that it would be difficult to get away without bleeding some money today.

He put his hand into his arms, and a trace of pain appeared on his face.

"Xing Zhaofu, just wait, this account is not settled yet!"

The third in command shouted loudly, flipped his wrist, took out a black ball the size of a baby's fist from his arms, and threw it hard to the ground.

boom!
The black sphere exploded when it hit the ground, and instantly a cloud of black smoke spread in all directions, instantly covering an area of ​​two meters in radius.

The black smoke had an unbearable stench. Xing Zhaofu's stomach churned and his eyes felt burning.

By the time they ran out of the black fog, the third in command of the Black Dragon Village had already disappeared.

…………

"Xing, just wait for me. If I can't destroy your family, I won't be worthy of being the third in command of the Black Dragon Village!"

The third in command of the Black Dragon Village staggered forward, with one hand covering his chest and abdomen. Blood oozed out from between his fingers and dripped onto the ground.

His face was ferocious and his eyes were full of hatred.

Xing Zhaofu had already injured him in his desperate attempt, and then there were the desperate sieges by the constables behind him. Now he didn't even know how many wounds he had on his body.

Some of the knife strikes almost injured his internal organs.

He didn't even dare to use any strength now, for fear that his injuries would escalate and he would faint and die.

"Leave the city. As long as we leave the city, it will be fine."

The third in command avoided the detectives who were searching for him and entered a quiet and dark street.

Just at this moment, the moon emerged from the clouds.

Under a dim moonlight, a figure in the street raised his head in surprise and looked at the third in command who came in.

The third in command was also stunned for a moment. This looked like a poor street in the slums. How come there were still people here in the middle of the night?
"Die!"

A fierce look flashed across the third in command's face. Although he was seriously injured, he was still capable of crushing a civilian to death.

Just as he raised his foot to kick, something strange happened.

puff!
A cloud of white ash came towards him before he could move.
