Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years.

Chapter 54: Baidaofu Tongpan! Luo Jinghe!

Baidaofucheng!

A prefectural city that is dozens of times larger than Qingyun County. There is a constant stream of pedestrians and carriages in the city, and countless huge buildings stand in it.

Near the center of the city, there is a mansion covering an area of about 100 acres of land.

The walls surrounding the mansion are towering into the clouds, and in front of the vermilion gate stand two jade-white stone lion statues.

The owner of this mansion is Luo Jinghe, an official appointed by the Great Xia court and the magistrate of Baidao City.

Deep in the mansion, in an elegant and tranquil garden, the aisles are surrounded by emerald green lawns, and every few meters there is an ancient tree rising from the ground.

Follow the jade stone path to the end, and you will see an exquisite pavilion.

There were several people in the pavilion, including a middle-aged man dressed in fine silk and satin, sitting next to a stone table.

The middle-aged man was lying comfortably on a chair, with several young and beautiful women beside him, and several pairs of slender hands were gently massaging his body.

Suddenly, a man hurriedly walked towards this side from the distance on the courtyard path.

When he approached the pavilion, the man bowed humbly and said to the middle-aged man inside the pavilion: "Master, Huang Xuanzheng of the Huang family is outside seeking to see you."

The middle-aged man was the magistrate of Baidao City, Luo Jinghe.

After a long while, Luo Jinghe finally opened his eyes. He was still lying on the chair and said lightly, "All of you go down!"

"Let him in."

"Yes, sir."

After receiving Luo Jinghe's signal, several maids hurriedly walked out along the path with the man in front of them.

Soon afterwards, the man returned again, followed by a young man.

The young man was dressed in a low-key and simple white cloth. He was the eldest son of Huang Yangping, the county magistrate of Qingyun County, Huang Xuanzheng, a human-level Xuanniao Guard.

When Huang Xuan saw Luo Jinghe, his face became sad and his eyes were bloodshot. He walked forward anxiously.

"Uncle Luo, you have to make the decision for my Huang family!"

Yesterday, Huang Xuanzheng received the news that his father Huang Yangping had passed away.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, making Huang Xuanzheng so angry that his blood rushed to his chest and he couldn't believe it.

Of course, Huang Xuanzheng also thought about returning directly to Qingyun County, but reason prevailed over him.

If the other party could easily kill his father, then it would be useless for him, a warrior who had just entered the marrow refining realm, to go back and he would just die in vain.

Then, when Huang Xuanzheng went to ask for help from Xuanniao Guard's Lord Xuanshi, he was rejected outright, saying that Xuanniao Guard was short of manpower and could not spare any strength.

In desperation, Huang Xuanzheng thought of the Tongpan who had always supported their Huang family.

There was no fluctuation in Luo Jinghe's eyes, and his face was calm. It was obvious that he had known about this for a long time.

"Don't worry, nephew. The prefect has already sent people to Qingyun County. It won't be long before they find the real culprit and give your father an explanation."

"I will not let that murderer go!"

Luo Jinghe's assurance gave Huang Xuanzheng, who was in extreme sadness, a glimmer of hope.

Luo Jinghe suddenly spoke again at this time: "By the way, nephew, did anyone notice you when you came?"

The identity of Xuanniao Guard is very special in the Daxia Dynasty. It is an organization directly under the Daxia Emperor.

Generally speaking, the Xuanniao Guards rarely have close contact with local court officials. If they are discovered, it would be a serious crime of collusion!

"Uncle Luo, no, I left Xuanniaowei secretly and came to you in disguise."

Huang Xuanzheng's answer made Luo Jinghe in front of him smile, then he slowly stood up and walked towards Huang Xuanzheng's position.

"That's good. Don't worry, nephew. I will definitely take charge of your Huang family." As soon as he finished speaking, before Huang Xuan could react, Luo Jinghe had already come to him.

"Uncle Luo, then I will do it for..."

Suddenly, Luo Jinghe loosened his hands behind his back, and a big hand pressed heavily on the top of Huang Xuanzheng's head.

Click!

The sound of bones breaking could be heard as a terrifying energy and blood invaded Huang Xuanzheng's body, mercilessly destroying his internal organs.

After a few breaths, Huang Xuanzheng's eyes were filled with deep reluctance and disbelief, and his whole body drooped down like a lump of mud.

"You're welcome. I'll take you to reunite with your father right away."

Luo Jinghe put his hands behind his back, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and looked at Huang Xuanzheng on the ground with a smile.

"Master, do we need to send someone to Qingyun County to find out who killed Huang Yangping?"

The man next to him looked at the scene indifferently, then asked Luo Jinghe.

"Cha, Huang Yangping is my dog after all. If you dare to kill him, you are going against me."

"No matter who it is, I will make him pay the price!"

Luo Jinghe's eyes were filled with ferocity, which made the man beside him feel very scared.

"Yes, sir!"

Everyone in Baidao Mansion knew that Huang Yangping was his man, yet there were some fearless bastards who dared to go against him and killed Huang Yangping openly.

If Luo Jinghe doesn't come out to make the decision for Huang Yangping, who would dare to follow him in the future?

In addition, Huang Yangping gave him a large amount of silver every year.

Now that he is dead, it means that Luo Jinghe will lose a lot of income in the future.

Stealing someone’s money is like killing their parents!
Late at night, the night is as dark as ink!
Stars dot the boundless sky, and a vast full moon illuminates the earth.

The white moonlight poured down on the official road of Qingyun County. The faint moonlight was like a transparent white gauze spread on the ground.

Da da da!

On the official road of Qingyun County, a black horse galloped past on the silent official road.

Not long after, the black horse moved away from the official road, slowed down, and headed towards a small path.

After a long time, the black horse stopped in front of a village gate.

The tall man sitting on the horse was Lu Xuan who had left the county.

Lu Xuan sat on the horse with an expressionless face, quietly looking at the big rock in front of the village entrance.

In the dim light, Lu Xuan could still vaguely see three big words engraved on it.

Liugou Village

With the mentality of plucking feathers from passing geese, Lu Xuan also stopped by to visit Liugou Village on his way to Baidaofu City.

Lu Xuan's purpose was to find the black shadow in Liugou Village.

If that black shadow still existed, Lu Xuan wouldn't mind killing it again to get system points.

However, Lu Xuan’s wish was still unfulfilled.

After Lu Xuan tied up the horse, he quietly sneaked into Liugou Village and sensed it carefully, and found that there was still no cold and strange atmosphere as before.

When it was almost dawn and the villagers were about to wake up, Lu Xuan hurriedly left Liugou Village.
