Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 217 Chaos has begun

“Walk, walk, walk, travel, travel, I won’t worry if I don’t learn a lot.

I never tell the truth to anyone, I just rely on my tongue.

The flattery made his legs cramp, and the tiger's mouth was greased.

He makes a living by cheating people everywhere, and is the best at deceiving people."

When the day was bright, a beggar could be heard walking on crutches and singing outside the Drum Tower. It was strange to see the beggar walking on the street so openly. The shop doors on both sides of the street were open, but there were only a few people sitting on chairs on the street.

Listening to the beggar's singing, these people smiled knowingly.

Some people simply threw out a handful of coins as a reward to the beggars.

On the rooftop of the third floor of a residential building in the distance, several people popped up one after another. This building was the tallest one nearby except for the Drum Tower. In order to find a good location, Liu Sanxiang and his men rushed over a day early and occupied the building.

As for how to collect it, don’t worry about it. It is definitely illegal anyway.

Several people took out binoculars and looked down from a high vantage point. They could see the voices of many people under the Drum Tower city wall.

It seemed to be very bustling with people coming and going, but if you look closely, the whole street is eerily quiet. Everyone is staring at each other and walking back and forth on the street.

"Where are Zhao Qingming and the others?" Liu Sanxiang looked around and turned to ask the people around him.

"It's too early. These guys are very cunning. It's not easy to drag them into this trap." another person said.

A few people nearby were a little unhappy when they heard this: "Who cares about them? They are just a bunch of bastards. What does it matter?"

"You know shit!" Shanlong cursed in dissatisfaction. Seeing their unconvinced look, he frowned and said, "If we don't kill these bastards, how can the local bosses behind us bear to die?"

"Kill them?"

Shanlong's words surprised everyone. This was different from what they had thought before.

"You mean, our goal is to kill these little bastards? But didn't we just cooperate with them? How come..."

Seeing that they didn't understand his plan, Shanlong could only patiently say, "Those old guys are all old and smart. Although they agreed to help that night, they would never personally help.

The leader is among these old guys. If they don't leave, how can we wake him up?"

"That's right, then why don't we just keep it simple and do it instead of going through all this trouble."

"Idiot, let's do it? Who's going to deal with Li Jingqi? Although there is no mission issued in this mystery city, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the target is Li Jingqi. Let's kill these old guys. Do we have to do it ourselves?"

Shanlong scolded this group of stupid people and then said to the others, "Go and look for them. Once you find them, keep an eye on them. Don't take action now. Wait until chaos breaks out."

"okay!"

After several people agreed, they immediately dispersed to look for Zhao Qingming and others.

In fact, it was not difficult to find them, but at this time Zhao Qingming and others were not nearby at all, but on Yinma Street, far away from the Drum Tower.

"Brother, this place is far from the Drum Tower. Why did you choose this place?"

Xie Yutang asked.

Zhao Qingming glanced at him unhappily and said, "Are you stupid? We are just working but not putting in any effort. Why are we rushing over so early? Besides, Liu Sanxiang and the others may not be our people. If we rush over now, they will cut off our support and kill us all. Then they will blame Li Jingqi. Who will we go to for justice?"

"what??"

Sun Miao and the others were stunned. They had not expected this.

But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it didn't make sense: "Why are they doing this? Didn't their family agree to help them?"

"That was agreed by my family, but there are many conditions that they didn't agree to. They are also afraid that we will take advantage of the situation and reap the benefits."

After Zhao Qingming finished speaking, he took out some black silk scarves from his sleeves and distributed them to everyone. "When night comes, we will split up. Fengchui, you call the birds to help us keep an eye on the place. If there is any trouble, send a message to the other brothers. Remember, you are not allowed to get involved no matter what. The others will be divided into three groups. They cannot be too far away from each other. They should be about two streets away!"

Zhao Qingming divided the group of people into different directions and areas. If he saw anyone breaking the rules in these areas, he would find a way to kill them.

As they were talking, Xiao Ran came hurriedly.

"Sorry, I'm not late."

Xiao Ran walked over quickly and said apologetically, "My master called me over early in the morning, so I had to delay for a while."

No one could find fault with this excuse, and it was still early, so no one would care.

"You've come just in time. You'll be in a group with... the third brother Li Qing. We'll be on this street to the east!"

Zhao Qingming explained the plan again.

"Very good!"

Xiao Ran thought about it and found that Zhao Qingming was born to be a boss, and everyone's abilities were mobilized.

Especially Yang Fengchui. This guy seems to have low abilities, but with his ability to speak animal language and call birds, he is simply a powerful weapon in this era where information transmission is extremely inconvenient.

The only drawback is that the sound of the suona is too loud and it is easy to expose yourself.

This is also why Zhao Qingming arranged the gathering place on the inconspicuous road of Yinma Street.

This road is still a long distance from the Drum Tower, but if you can stand on a tall building, you can see the location of the Drum Tower clearly.

This was actually a very good place for Yang Fengchui. He only needed to send messages via birds, so there was no need to be so close to the battlefield. "Let's go!"

After determining the direction, everyone split into three and headed in three different directions.

Xiao Ran and Li Qing walked eastward. They were not in a hurry as it was still early in the evening.

Unfortunately, there was no entertainment on the way, so the two of them just sat by the moat and waited as if they were just strolling around.

"If a fight really breaks out, what will happen to the ordinary people in the Drum Tower?"

Xiao Ran looked at Li Qing and asked.

"I don't know, but the ordinary people near the Drum Tower were invited away by Mr. Yang yesterday in the name of celebrating his birthday. Those who stayed behind were also cast under a spell by Grandma Zhao, causing them to fall into a coma since last night. It is estimated that they have been awake for almost three days."

As they were talking, the two walked into an alley, but before they had walked far, they heard cheerful laughter from the distance ahead.

"Hahaha, that girl is really nice, with skin as white as an eggshell. We are really lucky."

"What do you think would happen if she woke up and found out that we had raped her?"

"Then don't blame us. If you want to blame someone, blame Zhao's grandmother for making her sleep so soundly."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran and Li Qing's faces suddenly froze. Li Qing was young and hot-tempered, and anger was already gushing out from his eyes.

It wasn't even night yet, and they had already started taking advantage of the situation to rob people.

If this happens at night, I'm afraid countless people will be in trouble. When the time comes, the blame will be put on Li Jingqi, and everyone will be innocent.

"These beasts!"

Li Qing's face darkened as he untied the bandage on his arm and took out a special stone from his waist pocket with one hand.

The stone looked very unusual. At first glance, it looked like a glass bead, the size of a thumb, but it seemed to be filled with liquid.

This bead is a kind of hidden weapon unique to the Li family. It is somewhat similar to triethyl aluminum and will explode as long as it comes into contact with air.

Li Qing took two steps forward and turned a corner, where he saw three middle-aged men squatting in the corner smoking.

Just as he was about to take action, Xiao Ran stopped him. "Let me do it. You'll make too much noise if you do it."

Xiao Ran responded by walking over with the three of them. The three were joking about which restaurant to go to next, when they noticed someone walking towards them and immediately stood up.

When he saw clearly that the person coming was just a young man, he didn't care about him. Instead, he stared at Xiao Ran with cold and fierce eyes.

It was as if he was signaling Xiao Ran with his eyes to get out of here.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ran not only did not take a detour, but instead slowly quickened his pace.

"Looking for death!"

Seeing Xiao Ran rushing over, the three of them belatedly wanted to pull out their axes from their waists.

In just the next second, Xiao Ran came close, his cold eyes quickly swept across the necks of the three people, and he stepped on the instep of the person in front of him.

With a force of 45 points, Xiao Ran kicked without controlling the force, and one could hear the sound of bones breaking on the sole of his foot.

"what!"

Before the other party could even scream, Xiao Ran slapped the man in the face. With a "crack" sound, the man felt as if half of his jaw was gone.

When the man came to his senses, he found that his entire jaw was broken, and then he felt pain.

It made the man feel so painful that his body began to tremble.

“Cut you to death!!”

The other two men swung their axes at him, but Xiao Ran was faster. He kicked the man in front of him on the wrist, knocking the axe out of his hand.

"Whoosh!" There was a sound of breaking wind, and the axe directly chiseled into the shoulder of the man on the left. At the same time, the powerful impact force directly knocked the man into the air and threw him heavily to the ground.

The other man's axe was already coming down towards Xiao Ran's head, but in Xiao Ran's eyes, this action did not pose any threat at all. He was too lazy to even use any moves. He bent forward to avoid the axe and punched the man in the crotch.

"boom!!"

There was a sound of bones breaking in the opponent's lower body, and his body flew three meters before falling to the ground.

The man had already fainted, with blood flowing out of his crotch. Even if he survived, he would be a eunuch.

Seeing that the three men had become disabled in an instant, Li Qing also walked up and punched them hard, knocking the man in front of him whose instep was crushed by Xiao Ran to the ground.

"Damn it, you bunch of beasts! Zhenye, just kill them."

Li Qinghong narrowed his eyes, picked up the axe on the ground, and prepared to chop down these people.

But Xiao Ran stopped him: "No, killing is against the law."

"Ah?" Li Qing turned around and looked at Xiao Ran, wondering if this guy had not woken up yet.

But Xiao Ran took out the needle and thread calmly: "Third brother, have you heard of picking branches from living things..."
