Domineering

Chapter 62 Fireworks
A moment later, the fire in Long's warehouse was extinguished by several seventh-rank magicians.

There were still a few remaining fires burning at the scene, but nothing serious happened.

Jinyi Qianhu Cao Xuan arrived at the scene early.

Today's wind is strong and the air is dry and dry.

He was worried that the sparks from the fire would ignite other buildings in the city and cause the fire to spread.

Cao Xuan was startled and angry in his heart.

What he was angry about was the Iron Banner Gang, who dared to attack the Long family in the city and set fire to it.

What was surprising was that the Iron Banner Gang had such strength, but they took down the warehouse of the Long family without a sound, while the surrounding city guards and the guards of those aristocratic families were completely unaware.

After the fire was extinguished, Cao Xuan saw the words "Blood Wind Bandit" written on the wall.

Due to the fire, the blood on the wall had long since dried up, leaving only a brown stain.

The blood characters were also burnt so badly that it was difficult to distinguish the handwriting.

However, experts from the Six Doors dug the wall on the spot and found that the blood had seeped into the depths of the stone wall, which was similar to the words left by the Blood Wind Bandits before.

There are also city guards and experts from the Six Gates whispering in the surroundings.

"This Long family is really unlucky. They were beaten by the Iron Banner Gang during the day and suffered heavy losses. They also killed their own second son. At night, they were robbed and burned by the blood wind."

"I'm afraid they will lose their vitality this time. The goods here must not exceed 8 taels of magic silver."

"Li Daogui moved so fast. It was only yesterday that he recovered from his injury and sneaked back to Xiushui County. Today, he attacked the Long family."

"But why is there no corpse? There is not a single corpse at the scene, including Long Shengxie, the elder of the Long family. He can't see anyone when he is alive, and he can't see a corpse when he is dead."

This is what makes Cao Xuan puzzled.

Those people like Bloodwind Bandit don't have the habit of killing people and turning them into corpses.

What was the murderer trying to cover up by removing the corpse?
At this time, a general banner of Jinyiwei came to his side and whispered in his ear.

Zongqi was talking about gold and silver, and there was not even a tael of silver or a penny left at the warehouse.Long Shengxie's personal weapon, a seventh-rank rune blood refining knife, was also missing.

The murderer seems to be seeking money--

The problem is that the real valuables in this warehouse are those goods. How much cash is there to grab?
Cao Xuan couldn't figure it out, he shook his head slightly: "Send down the order to search for the Blood Wind Bandits throughout the city. You can talk to Mr. Li, the chief arrester of Six Doors, and say that this matter should not be complicated."

Jin Yiwei General Banner understood and left.

The meaning of Master Qianhu is clearly that one thing more is worse than one thing less.

This case can only be planted on the blood wind bandit first.

Cao Xuan, on the other hand, sighed heavily, thinking that this is really an eventful year, with one wave of ups and downs and another wave of it.

The troubles between the Bloodwind Pirates and the Nishen Banner have not yet been resolved, and yet another group of thugs with unknown origins appeared.

Cao Xuan believed that this was a gang crime, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to kill the elite number 80 of the Long family silently.

At this time, he squinted and looked thirty feet away, an old man about eight feet tall with white beard and hair.

The appearance of the old man was very similar to that of Longheng Longsheng, with a high nose and deep eyes, and a sinister temperament.

Cao Xuan recognized that it was Long Nanshu, the patriarch of the Long family.

Different from the Longnan books he had seen in the past, this old man no longer had the high spirits he had before.

At this moment, his stalwart body with a height of eight feet looked a little stooped, his complexion was as pale as paper, and his facial muscles were slack, as if he had aged several decades overnight.

However, in Long Nanshu's eyes, apart from desolation and sadness, there was also a fierce and fierce intent.

This ferocity even spilled out, causing the moths, mosquitoes and flies that were attracted by the fire to fall to the ground one after another, without making a sound.

Cao Xuan's heart shivered, realizing that although the Patriarch of the Long family had declined, he was a sick and old tiger, and he had more prestige.

The battle for river transportation in Xiushui County is still a battle between dragons and tigers.

Cao Xuan immediately put away his thoughts and walked out without hesitation.

The top priority of their Jinyiwei is the Nishen Banner——

Other than that, nothing else matters.

※※※※

At the same time, Chu Xisheng and Chu Yunyun came to the Jinshui River.

This is a tributary of the Shenxiu River. It passes through the city from Xiushui County. It is an inland river in the county and is also the water source used by most of the people in the city.

The two came here to deal with some things brought out from the warehouse.

For example, the blood on Chu Xisheng's body, or the big package that Chu Yunyun brought out.

The package is full of gold and silver, the magic silver is about 300 taels, and there are about three taels of 'divine gold'.

This is all the gold and silver that Chu Yunyun looted from the warehouse. The elite soldiers of the Long family didn't bring much cash with them.

However, there were quite a few bank notes. Chu Xisheng counted them, and there were more than 3000 taels.

Chu Yunyun forcefully broke the seventh-rank rune blood refining knife she brought out into dozens of pieces, and threw the pieces far into the middle of the river.

There is Long Shengxie's essence and blood on this knife, which is easy to be found by the magician.

Then she squeezed a magic formula with both hands, and summoned a ball of flames, ready to burn all those bank notes.

"Don't." Chu Xisheng hurriedly stopped him: "It would be a pity to burn so many banknotes."

"We can't use it, what do we do if we don't burn it?" Chu Yunyun frowned, and looked at Chu Xisheng puzzled: "Our situation can't be greedy."

The turmoil in today's life and death competition was caused by greed.

"I know." Chu Xisheng smiled slightly: "We can't use it, and maybe others can't use it either. I don't know how to use it now, so I can find a place to bury it, and it won't be too late to take it out and dispose of it after the Long family is destroyed."

In ancient times, bank notes were issued by banks, and they were divided into two types: registered and unregistered.

Registered bank notes are more similar to modern passbooks. Only when the owner of the bank note goes to the bank to verify his authenticity can he exchange for silver.

Bearer bank notes are much more convenient, as long as the issuing banks have a good reputation, they can be used no matter where they are.

The problem is that these banknotes also had their own markings, somewhat similar to modern cheques.

Some special procedures are also required to withdraw cash from the bank.

So as long as the Long family is in one day, these bank notes cannot be used.

The Long family can trace their roots through the bank and find their traces.

It is easy to burn the banknotes, but this will only make the bank cheaper.

Chu Xisheng's idea was to wait until the Long family was destroyed, and then sell the bank notes at a discount.

Ordinary people can't make the bank obediently spit out money, but those rich and powerful dignitaries may not.

Chu Yunyun understood what Chu Xisheng meant, and she was also reluctant to destroy these bank notes.

After contemplating for a while, she walked along the river and dug a deep hole under the stone bridge next to her, and buried the banknotes in it.

Next came the three hundred taels of gold and silver.

Under these silver and gold ingots, there are imprints of the character 'Long'.

This is very simple, Chu Yunyun kneaded and kneaded all the gold and silver into round balls, leaving no traces.

When you want to use it in the future, you can knock off a little bit and use it as broken silver and gold.

The two of them dealt with all the hands and tails, washed away all the smells in the river, and then returned to Zhengyang Martial Arts.

As soon as Chu Xisheng returned to the room, he fell asleep and entered the virtual space.

In fact, he was exhausted and unable to support himself.

Three life-and-death battles during the day, and killing and arson at night, almost exhausted my energy.

However, virtual training not only does not consume energy, but also has an excellent recovery effect.

Practicing swords in a tired state is also good for him to sharpen his mind.

However, in the early morning, Chu Xisheng saw small fireworks continuously exploding in his eyes in the dreamland.

There are more than 22 flowers in total, and his martial arts points have been raised to [-] in just a moment.

Chu Xisheng was stunned for a while, wondering what did the Hu family brother do to increase his martial arts points so exaggeratedly?
