Dou Po: My days as a mentor at Canaan College

Chapter 191 Blood

The next morning.

The dust has settled and the sky is clear.

However, under such a rare fine weather, the expressions and moods of the members of the Xiao family in the Xiao family's mansion in the east of the city were mixed with sadness and joy.

The good news is that after last night's battle, the local aristocratic families entrenched in Wutan City that hindered the development of their Xiao family, that is, the Jialie and Auba families, have been declared destroyed!

Since then, no force in Wutan City has been able to hinder the development of the Xiao family.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Wu Tancheng's surname is Xiao in the future.

After all, once Jialie and Auba collapsed, most of the fast-moving business in the city would basically flow into the hands of the Xiao family, such as the market, casinos, Goulan clubs, restaurants, teahouses, as well as the carriage and horse dealers and water dealers. Waiting for a way, these businesses will all be under the banner of the Xiao family in the future!

Moreover, this is only the economic aspect of the city.

In terms of urban security administration, only the Xiao family will be left to enforce the law in the future!

Under such circumstances, the Xiao family can be said to be the true "Emperor of Earth" of Wutan City.

And the mourning of the members of the Xiao family is that their Xiao family suffered heavy casualties last night before the battle turned around!

Nearly [-] people were killed, more than [-] people were seriously injured, and several were slightly injured.

Among them, more than 30 servants raised by the mansion died, and 63 people who were confirmed dead by collateral and direct descendants of the Xiao family!
The scale of casualties is not small!

It must be known that the entire Xiao family, counting the old, weak, sick, disabled, and young people in the family who did not participate in the battle last night, is only in the early thousand and over.

The real living force, that is, the young and strong, is just that there were less than 500 people last night, and among them, not all of them were purely descendants of the Xiao family's blood, because the servants raised by the family accounted for a small number of people.

Dawn breaks, illuminating the whole city.

In the Xiao family mansion, in the huge building complex, you can see that almost every few courtyards, there will be a few clusters of white paper flowers hanging on wooden sticks or bamboo poles, and torn flowers in front of one or two courtyard doors. Divide into several white cloth strips.

This is called a white banner.

The number of cloth strips on it symbolizes the age of the deceased in the family.

And in all the courtyards with white banners in front of the gate, the relatives of the deceased are all in plain clothes.

This is a custom passed down by the Xiao family since a long time ago.

Time has passed, and it is said that on the mainland, there are very few families that still retain this custom, and there are only a handful of them in Zhongzhou.

……

East of the city.

In the open space at the end of one of the city's main roads less than two miles away from Xiao's mansion.

This was the place where Xiao's family fought fiercely with Jialie and Auba last night. At this moment, the corpses on the ground that formed pools of blood in the early morning and fell to the ground have disappeared.

The entire end of the street was scoured and cleaned, leaving no trace of blood.

If it wasn't for the faint smell of blood in the breeze that blows through the air from time to time, no one would have guessed that this place was a place where thousands of people were slaughtered last night.

……

Utan City, east of the suburb.

Lin Li and Lin Li walked a long way in silence. When they suddenly turned their heads and could no longer see the outline of Wutan City, they stopped one after another. Looking at each other, the two of them stretched out their hands for no reason. He looked at his hands again and again, as if there was something dirty on them.

However, the fact is that neither of their hands was stained with any debris.

Lin Li slowly lowered his hands with undetectable tremors. During the process, he suddenly laughed at himself and said:
"Heh..., in the first half of my life, the number of people who died in my hands due to various reasons is less than one-tenth of last night..."

Next to him, Meng Yi, who is also the "Lone Ranger" in the Jia Ma Empire, took a deep look at Lin Li and said:

"If it's true, then among the solitary practitioners who have no background or sect, you have killed very few people!"

"Oh? Listening to your tone, many people died in your hands before?"

Lin Li frowned, and took a step back calmly, pulling some distance away from Meng Yi.

"Hehe, it's okay, these years have been scattered, and the number of people I killed should not be less than a hundred... However, compared with last night, it is naturally not enough..., who Can you imagine that the top executives of the Xiao family planned to let us be the executioners?"

Seemingly not seeing Lin Li's retreat, Meng Yi said slowly.

After saying these words, Meng Yi rubbed his hands vigorously on his clothes, then brought his hands to the tip of his nose and took a light sniff.

"Do you know, it is said that if a person kills too much at once, no matter how you wash your hands, you will still smell bloody smell for a long time to come!"

Meng Yi lowered his eyelids, as if he was talking to himself.

On the side, when Lin Li heard this, he put his hand under the tip of his nose in unbelief, and sucked in a sudden breath.

The next moment, his eyes widened.

"How? Is this true? In fact, it is reasonable to be able to smell it today. After all, it has only been a few hours since we killed the [-] or [-] Jialie and Auba tribesmen who were pinned down by the Xiao family." No, the smell on the skin is not so easy to volatilize, hehe... When you can still smell a bloody smell from your hands after ten days and half a month, you will find that this is really weird!"

Meng Yi's eyelids opened slightly, and he looked contemptuously at Lin Li who had already retreated a few steps to the side before he knew it. He paused, and then continued:
"Blood is a very wonderful thing. On the mainland, among the special and rare attributes of the fighting spirit of cultivators, there is the existence of 'blood'... I don't know if you have heard about the long time A previous legend?
According to legend, as long as our practitioners cultivate to the highest level, the blood of anyone who is related to you will resonate with you, and will be sublimated and transformed. Depending on the blood relationship, the strength and realm will be greatly improved. It can be said that one person can achieve the Tao Chicken and dog ascend to heaven..."

After Meng Yiyu said, Lin Li said with a look of surprise:
"What do you mean by this? What is the intention?"

Meng Yi clicked his lips, and after a slight silence, the fighting spirit in his body slowly surged to the surface of his body.

Seeing this, Lin Li narrowed his eyes slightly, drew out his weapon, and guarded it vigilantly in front of him, and at the same time his fighting spirit began to surge.

"Hehe, don't be nervous, why are you so sensitive? I just want you to take a closer look at my grudge attribute!"

Meng Yi smiled lightly.

"Your fighting spirit attribute? Aren't you a water attribute... um? This, this is?"

While speaking, Lin Li's eyes fell on the light blue fighting spirit on Meng Yi's body. After looking closely, he found that there was a trace of blood swimming faintly in the light blue fighting spirit of water attribute on his body.

"That's right, my water attribute battle qi is naturally mixed with a trace of blood attribute battle energy!
After going through this incident in Wutan City this time, killing so many people at once, I am afraid that your state of mind and mine will not return to what it used to be in the future... I plan to go to the 'Black Corner Domain' to see if I can do it Join the 'Blood Clan' that sits there! "

"The no-nonsense zone at the junction of several empires, the Black Corner Domain?"

"The Black Horn Region is the paradise for us lone travelers! Having said so much, I want to invite you to walk with me..."
