Simulation of all things: starting with copper skin and iron bones

Chapter 43
Murder and arson?

Wei An sighed inwardly, without any change in expression on his face, and asked, "Such a big action, shouldn't I be the only one involved?"

Zhou Laifu nodded, and replied: "After dark tomorrow night, you wait in the alley opposite Wangyue Restaurant, and someone will arrange everything."

After thinking for a while, he added, "The rules are the same as last time, cover your head and face, don't leave any traces, and don't let anyone know your identity."

Wei An nodded to express his understanding.

"Work hard, and you will be rich if you succeed!" Before leaving, Zhou Laifu said something meaningful.

Wei An naturally understood the meaning of the words, but said with a smile: "A reward of [-] can only be regarded as a small fortune."

Hearing this, Zhou Laifu smiled and waved away.

"Oh, what should come has finally come." Wei An already knew that the Zhou family's rebellion would happen tomorrow night.

Watching Zhou Laifu leave, Wei An sighed softly, after all, he didn't tell Zhou Laifu that the Zhou family would be defeated tomorrow night, and Zhou Laifu would also be in trouble.

Zhou Laifu is a nice guy, he can get along with him, Wei An has always had a good impression of him.

But they are not friends.

From the very beginning, when Zhou Laifu pulled Wei An into the gang, his purpose was not pure. He didn't tell the Zhou family that they were playing with fire. Wei An was dragged into the fire pit step by step.

Such affection is naturally dull.

It's just doing things with money, and everyone takes what they need.

……

……

The night passed quickly.

The next morning, Wei An woke up naturally.

At night, the treasure gourd sleep skill runs automatically, Wei An sleeps very soundly, and when he wakes up, he is full of energy.

During the day, he practiced martial arts as usual, imitating when an apprentice came.

In the evening, Wei An called Dong Che, the owner of the restaurant, toasted him with a few glasses of wine, thanking him for his care for the past six months.

After sending Dong Che off, Wei An stood in the main hall on the second floor, looked around, glanced at every row of bookshelves, and there was a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

After that, taking advantage of the nightfall, he quietly went out through the window and left the Dihu Martial Arts Hall.

About ten minutes later, Wei An appeared in an alley in "Ping'an Square", opened an old door with a key, and entered a simple civilian house.

He rented this house half a month ago. The conditions in all aspects are very simple, and there is not even decent furniture in the house.

Wei An didn't care, he sat down and changed his face.

Soon, he changed from a stern youth to a middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life.

In front of this human skin, Wei An used it once before when he killed Mr. Du. Of course, he covered his face at that time, even Mr. Du had never seen this face.

Then, Wei An sat cross-legged on the bed, listening carefully to the outside world.

He didn't plan to go to Wangyue Restaurant from the beginning, and he couldn't get through this muddy water. The [-] reward was destined not to be received.

Just here soon!
There was a booming sound in the distance, and then the flames shot up into the sky, and the Moon Tower caught fire!
The Wangyue Tower has three floors and a height of more than 15 meters. The whole burns like a huge pillar of fire.

The monstrous fire was like a thunderbolt, illuminating the entire Baishui City.

"It's so bright over there, is there a fire?"

"God, it's a big fire, it won't burn to our side."

"Go, go, hurry up and put out the fire."

Immediately, the neighbors became restless, and many people ran towards the fire with buckets in hand.

Unmoved, Wei An continued to wait.

Bang bang bang!
Only a moment later, in the direction of the Huo family's mansion!
Suddenly, fierce fighting came!

The powerful martial artist made a bold move, and the terrifying strength confronted each other, like an earthquake.

All the people in the city felt the slight tremor on the ground.

There was a rustling in the room, countless dust was shaken off the roof and beams.

A lot of dust also fell from the top of Wei An's head and landed on his shoulders. He remained motionless, his ears always listening to the movement in the distance.

Time passes by...

The fierce fighting lasted for nearly an hour, and then everything gradually calmed down.

"Oh, it's over." Wei An sighed, then shook off the dust on his body, and lay down to sleep.

That night, the entire city of Baishui was under martial law.

On the second day, the martial law continued, and all the people stayed at home and were not allowed to go out.

A few days passed quickly in a blink of an eye, and some rumors spread quickly.

The approximate version of the story is this.

On the night of the incident, it happened to be the birthday of Huo Zichen, the eldest son of the Huo family. A banquet was held in Wangyue Tower, and friends and playmates were invited to celebrate together.

Unexpectedly, a group of assassins suddenly broke in and killed everyone they saw, causing chaos in an instant.

Huo Zichen failed to escape the catastrophe and died unexpectedly.

Subsequently, the assassin set fire to the Moon Tower.

When the fire came together, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people. The Tiger Gang and the Huo family's staff rushed over upon hearing the news.

In this way, the Huo family's defense force became empty.

After that, the three elders of the Dihu Gang, also the three major families in Baishui City, namely the Zhou family, the Su family, and the Bai family, joined hands to enter the Huo family and rebelled!
Under the emptiness of defense, the Huo family could not stop the attack of the three families at all, and the situation was almost one-sided.

However, seeing that the three major families were about to succeed in their rebellion, Huo Xuanying suddenly broke through, showing terrifying power, and killed the three elders on the spot with one against three.

Huo Xuanying calmed down the scene with thunder, and then mobilized people to bloodbath the three major families. In one night, thousands of people were massacred, and the blood of her boyfriend, old and young, flowed into rivers.

A few days later, Huo Xuanying had a personal meeting with the Yan family, handing over the two rough stone mines, and the two sides stopped fighting.

The turmoil then subsided.

In mid-June, martial law was finally lifted.

Wei An went to the street and saw many reward orders posted all over the street.

Some members and followers of the three major families escaped fortunately and became fish that slipped through the net. Naturally, they were chased and killed by the Tiger Gang with all their strength.

"Ji Canghai, age 25, eighth-rank martial artist, formerly the master of the Dihu Martial Art Museum, is actually a spy of the Zhou family, offering a bounty of [-] low-rank rough stones, regardless of life or death."

Among the many reward orders, Wei An saw his own.

Sure enough, Ji Canghai was finally exposed.

The Zhou family must have kept a list of those who participated in the rebellion, and Ji Canghai was one of them.

However, Ji Canghai's rebellion, what does Wei An have to do with me?
The middle-aged man Wei An was extremely calm.

"Everything is settled, I should go too." Wei An was sure, and on the first day the city gate was reopened, he left Baishui City and rode to a dyeing cloth village several hundred miles away.

Chen Wanyi was there, and right now, she was Wei An's greatest hope to advance to the sixth rank.

Da da da, Wei An rode fast and galloped all the way.

……

……

At the same time, the Tiger Gang headquarters!

In the huge Tiger Gang, apart from the leader Huo Xuanying, the elder He Deyan has the highest status.

For some reason, He Deyan, one of the Four Great Elders, did not participate in the conspiracy.

Because of this, he was regarded as Huo Xuanying's loyalty, and his power became more and more grand, under one person.

Right now, his top priority is to arrest those wanted criminals, kill them all, cut the weeds and root them out, so as to prevent future troubles.
