Dark Fairy

Chapter 132 Crisis and Opportunity

Qianfang and Masheng Lane are the sites of the only Erdao restaurant that was attacked last night.

Those hidden guards didn't kill anyone they saw, and they didn't disturb other places in the sword hall.It seems that Bailang's previous guess is based on the behavior of the previous murder case.After all, the money Liu She gave was given out in Qianfang, and that money came from the inner warehouse of the knife shop on the side of Masheng Lane.

So Qianfang and Masheng Lane became the targets.And he wanted to take someone back to torture him.

In Bailang's opinion, this was quite a bit random.There is also a clear sense of burning the boat in the arrogance.

"To be honest, I thought you were dead. After all, last night in Masheng Lane, three people died with the red knife alone, and more than 40 people died with the waist knife. Even Tang Zuo knife was seriously injured. I didn't expect you The boy's life is so hard!"

"Master Liu, I'm just lucky."

"Tsk tsk, luck? Luck is a part of strength, and it is a big part. You kid was born to eat the bowl of the sword hall. It seems that God will not accept it, so you have to take risks this time. In the future, the sword hall It's up to you.

Well, I am really old and useless.In the past, I would run back to help the knife hall to fight against the enemy no matter what, so why not die?I have never been afraid.

Hey, but last night when my grandson hugged my leg and knelt in front of me to prevent me from going out, I found that I really couldn't move my leg. "

Bailang looked at the complex expression on Liu Xu's face and felt the other party's gaze. He was surprised for a while, he didn't expect Liu Xu to show such a depressed mood.

But Bailang could also guess the reason for Liu Xu's depression.It should be that Liu Xu felt that he had been stubborn for most of his life, thinking that he was not afraid of anything, but in the end he didn't expect to be stopped by his little grandson.The fetters of blood inheritance even surpassed the obsession that had persisted for most of his life at that moment.

Perhaps Liu Xu's psychology at this time is also the final destination of most people who were once fearless?

"Master Liu, you don't have to feel guilty. The knife hall is established in the world by the fresh blood from generation to generation. You have already contributed enough to the sword hall. No one has the right to criticize you. What's more, you didn't choose to come over last night. That's right."

Bailang is actually not good at comforting others.What he said was a little blunt, but it was indeed what he was thinking at this time.For the sword hall, there must always be a limit to how much he can give. He can't do such things anyway for the sake of the sword hall.

Obviously, Bailang's dry consolation was of no use to Liu Xu.

"Hehe, you don't know how to comfort people. Forget it, you may have the same experience as me in the future. But Zao Dao did not blame him this time. It's just that the sword hall was injured too badly this time, and Zao Dao's injury Not lightly, I'm afraid there will be troubles coming one after another in a short time!"

"Please Master Liu to teach me!" Bai Lang came here to see if something unexpected happened to Liu Xu and Tang Yan.At the same time, I also want to understand what troubles the sword hall is facing at this time.Otherwise, with his current position in the knife shop, he would have to go through a lot of detours to figure it out.

The most direct way is to get ready-made ones from Liu Xu.

Liu Xu looks at Bailang now more cordially than before.Bailang's ability to survive the danger of last night was one aspect of luck, strength and courage were also indispensable.And this kid is very smart, dare to think and do.

Liu Xu had always trained Bailang as the backbone of his own power line before, thinking that he could rely on him in the future and also wanted to see if he was qualified to be his successor when he finally left the sword hall.

This process Liu Xu originally planned to take five or six years to slowly transition, and even now that Bai Lang directly took over as the town hall, he was taking risks.

Now Liu Xu found that all his previous worries were gone.The current situation in the Knife Hall, as well as the potential and ability shown by Bailang, not only will not make him appear to be "going too fast", but on the contrary appear to be "deserving a bigger and heavier burden".As for age, it is actually not that important in the face of enough dazzling ability and strength.

"Bailang, do you know the origin of the person from last night?"

"Returning to Lord Liu, Bailang doesn't know. I only know that they call themselves "Dark Guards". Combining all the previous rumors and what they said last night, I judge that it should be related to the big man who died in the East City Inn before."

"You guessed right. The big man you mentioned is called Shen Hong, who came from the Emperor's Yunzong, and the dark guards were supposed to secretly guard these disciples of the Emperor's Yunzong who went out. Now that they have neglected their duties and caused Shen Hong to die, So they will look for the murderer like crazy, or they will try their best to get rid of the crime and get a chance to survive.

Unfortunately, our knife shop was involved in such inexplicable things.

This is the reason. I believe you should understand without me saying anything more that this is not something we can avoid.The City Lord's Mansion will not explain to us the reason for standing idly by.

So what we have to face is the endgame after this heavy blow.Or to use what Zuodao said to me today, what the knife studio needs to do in the future is how to survive and how to defend the interests and territory in its hands as much as possible. "

"Master Liu, you mean the person from the knife shop across the street?"

"Yes, Lin Yue's evasion this time was not affected, and the balance of power between him and our saber was also directly broken because of our saber's injury. He will definitely not wait for us to recover and kill him when the time comes It is definitely much more violent than it is now. Especially the Qianfang where you are, will definitely be hit the hardest.

In addition, it's not just Lin Yue's knife shop that will kill them.Forces elsewhere may also take advantage of the situation. "

"Another force?"

"The invading forces that branched off from the swordsmanship halls in other cities or the scattered forces that want to replace the swordsmanship halls and become new swordsmanship halls will not choose to sit idly by, and there will be chaos in the future.

But Bailang, what you are facing is not only danger, but also a rare opportunity.As long as you perform well enough in this difficult encounter in the sword hall, you will be much, much faster than normal when you become a red sword with the status of a waist sword. "

"Master Liu, with my qualifications, I can get a red knife in the position of the town hall?"

"Town hall? Hehe, if you do it well, maybe you will not only be the town hall, but it is not impossible to become the shopkeeper."

"Ah? Mr. Liu, Mr. Snake is sitting in the position of shopkeeper. You..."

"Liu Snake can't come back."

"Ah?!" Before Bailang finished his previous sentence, he was interrupted by Liu Xu's following words, his mouth opened wide in shock, and it took him a while to recover.

"Master Liu, Master Snake, is he dead?"

"Well. Those hidden guards are crazy. It was their dead end, and they insisted on breaking it to survive, but it turned out that there was no point other than saving more lives to die with them. Liu She was tortured in the prison. Last night, before the dark guards attacked, he cut off his head. So now the position of treasurer in the money workshop is vacant. Your performance last night and the connections you gathered from the private business that was recently brought up gave you a Great opportunity.

So Bailang, it's up to you how you fight. "
