The First Marquis of Daxuan

Chapter 36: Meeting on a Narrow Road (Please read, collect, and vote for the monthly ticket)

Listening to several "colleagues" daydreaming, Su Mu felt speechless.

Is this the emperor’s golden hoe?

In the end, it all comes down to brothels.

You're already at work, can't you listen to some music before going to bed?
vulgar!
Su Mu sneered.

Three hundred taels of silver would have been fine, but he was very envious of the position of team leader.

If he could become the team leader, the points he could get every day would definitely increase again.

Then his cultivation speed will definitely increase a lot.

Thinking in his mind, he subconsciously called up the system panel.

[Name: Su Mu]

[Identity: Constable (officer)]

[Points: 85 points]

[Kung Fu: Golden Scale Skin Tempering Method (Minor Success)]

[Martial Arts: Fubo Sword Skills (Perfect), Archery (Beginner)]

Over the past few days, he has accumulated eighty-five points, which is not far from the three hundred points required to master the Golden Scale Skin Tempering Method.

"Hey, the guy in front, I'm talking to you, stop!"

Just as Su Mu was thinking, he suddenly heard a loud shout in his ear.

When I looked up, I saw the constable named Li Fugui chasing a figure into an alley.

The other detectives also chased after him, shouting and yelling.

A look of helplessness flashed across Su Mu's face.

Since the frequent murders, the number of patrolling police officers has increased from two to five.

As the number of people increased, Su Mu gained more knowledge.

This scene is not the first time it has happened. In the words of Li Fugui and others, this is one of the few pleasures of patrolling the streets.

If the purpose of being a soldier is not to gain wealth and fame, who would do such a job?
When they are patrolling the streets, if they see someone who seems to have connections but doesn't seem to have any background, they will check them based on any name.

Unless you peel off a layer of skin, you will never be able to escape.

Even with such crude means, these constables could earn a few more taels of silver every day.

Although Su Mu disdained to associate with them, he was in the mud and could only get out of it. As for stopping them, Su Mu asked himself if he had the face to do so.

According to past experience, Li Fugui and the others will be back soon, with a look of satisfaction on their faces.

Su Mu thought to himself, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. With a fool like Sima He Yuxing, it would be strange if the lower body is fine.

I don’t know how the Taiping Division would handle this situation if it encountered it.

Su Mu looked up in the direction of the inner city. It would be almost time. In another year or two, he would be qualified to enter the inner city.

When I find Brother Taiping, maybe I will have a chance to join the Taiping Division.

Su Mu's heart was full of hope. He was in the mud, and only when he looked up at the sky did he feel full of hope.

This may be wishful thinking for others, but for Su Mu, as long as he works hard enough, this path to success will be achievable.

I was thinking that Li Fugui and others had not returned yet.

Su Mu was a little curious. Why would it take so much time to blackmail a pedestrian?

Are these bastards doing anything else that is outrageous?

He subconsciously took two steps forward. If they were just extorting some silver, Su Mu could turn a blind eye, but if they were going to do what Pink Wolf Du Qian did, then Su Mu could not sit idly by.

Suddenly, a short scream came to Su Mu's ears.

The voice sounded familiar.

Li Fugui!
Almost instinctively, Su Mu rushed into the alley. When he came to his senses, he was already in the middle of the street.

Su Mu was shocked. He was clearly on the street in broad daylight, with people coming and going not far away, but he felt a chill all over his body.

Compared with the hustle and bustle not far away, this street is unusually quiet.

Deep in the alley, four people were lying on the ground, their life or death unknown.

Blood was already flowing all over the ground, and the smell of blood was so strong that Su Mu felt as if everything in front of him had turned red.

He saw a man raising his head from Li Fugui, his mouth full of blood, his face as ferocious as a beast. Those eyes full of ferocity and madness made Su Mu feel like he was falling into an icy cave.

He felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast; his skin trembled and goose bumps appeared.

Su Mu took a deep breath slowly, trying to calm himself down.

Now he finally understood why the victims in those family massacres had incomplete limbs.

Because the murderer eats people!
The murderous man squatted on Li Fugui, with shreds of meat that he had bitten off from Li Fugui's body in his mouth. He looked more like a beast than a human.

Su Mu didn't know whether to say that he was lucky or unlucky. He actually ran into the murderer while patrolling the street.

And he took the initiative to deliver it to the door.

He slowly grasped the hilt of the long knife at his waist.

At this moment, turning around and running away was not a good option. Once he left his back to the enemy, he would probably end up like Li Fugui and the others.

When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins.

With his current strength, he may be able to fight.

It's too late, but it's soon.

A pair of scarlet eyes fell on Su Mu, and the murderer jumped up like a nimble civet cat.

When the other party moved, Su Mu also moved.

The long sword was unsheathed, turning into a sharp blade light.

There seemed to be the sound of gurgling water in the air.

The knife light rolled forward like a wave.

boom!
The blade hit the opponent's hands hard.

A tremendous force was used, and Su Mu stepped back a few steps, his arms feeling numb.

The opponent was also knocked back by the power of the long sword. After landing, he rolled over on all fours, lying on the ground like a wild wolf, his eyes fixed on Su Mu again.

Su Mu glanced at the other person's palm and was secretly shocked.

Although his knife is not a magic weapon, it is also extremely sharp.

Just now, after using all his strength to strike the opponent, only a tiny, almost invisible wound was left on the opponent's palm.

The strength of this skin is much stronger than mine.

Maybe the skin has been tempered to perfection!

However, in the sword fight just now, although the opponent's strength is greater than his, he is not impossible to fight.

Besides, he still has a trump card that he hasn't used yet.

His eyes suddenly became fierce, and Su Mu became violent.

The long sword in his hand surged like a raging wave and fell down suddenly.

The Fu Bo sword force, nine layers of waves.

The murderer exerted force on his limbs and leaped up like a hungry wolf.

click!
The two passed by each other.

Blood splattered and a beast-like roar echoed in the alley.

An arm hit the ground with a thud.

A trace of regret flashed across Su Mu's face.

The opponent moved too quickly and managed to avoid his throat-slashing knife at the last moment, thus suffering serious injuries and certain death.

Although he lost an arm, he managed to save his life.

As for Su Mu, his physical strength was only enough to perform the Fu Bo Sword Move twice, and now there was only one left.

"The South City Constable is here, why don't you surrender quickly!"

Su Mu shouted loudly, with an astonishing aura.

In broad daylight, the situation is in my hands.

Try again, and if that doesn't work, run away immediately.

Su Mu ran forward with the knife in his hand, his skin tensed, and he used all his strength in this one knife without any reservation.

Fu Bo sword force, nine waves!
