Panlong's rules are transcendent

Chapter 3 Robbery and Killing

There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the next day, Lei An got up early as usual and went out to practice.

The day passed quickly. After dinner, he did not meditate anymore. Instead, he put on his night clothes early, equipped himself with a long sword, and waited silently in the bedroom.

When it was almost time to go out last night, Leian left the courtyard quietly, and then hid on an eaves outside the Laman Manor, watching the entire manor quietly.

Soon, in sight, three figures avoided the patrol, climbed over the manor wall one after another, and flew towards the outside of the town.

Seeing this, Leian restrained his voice and followed quietly.

After leaving the town, Leian slowed down. There was nothing in the wilderness. He was not practicing dark fighting spirit, so he didn't dare to get too close.

When the river beach outside the town appeared in his sight, Raman and his party had become five people. They must have joined the commander Karl and the guard captain Colen.

The five people were muttering something as they hurried on. Leian was too far away to hear the specific content.

Soon, Raman and his party set foot on the official road leading to Hasan County, but they did not go in the direction of the county, but went in the opposite direction.

When Leian saw this, he was not surprised, because the direction Raman was heading was exactly where the Elvis family's territory was.

However, after the five people walked for a while, they suddenly stopped on a slope by the roadside.

Leian then leaned over to hide and observed carefully, but saw five people hiding behind the hillside, looking like they were ready.

Seeing this scene, Leian was slightly confused and thought to himself, could Elvis be passing by here tonight?

With this suspicion in mind, he slowed down his breathing and waited silently.

They waited for more than an hour. As midnight approached, there was finally movement on the official road ahead.

Lei An's spirit was shaken, and he immediately concentrated his eyes and looked at it from a distance. Soon, a group of pedestrians turned around the slope and appeared in sight.

There are not many people in this group, only eight, walking in twos and twos, walking quickly.

Because the night was thick and the distance was long, Leian could only count the number of people and couldn't see their specific faces, so he couldn't be sure whether Elvis was among them.

However, just as the team turned around the slope, Laman and others jumped out decisively. Each of the five people raised their weapons and shot toward the back of the team like tigers descending from the mountain.

"who?"

The low voice of shouting instantly spread across the wilderness. At the same time, someone jumped out of the rushing team and quickly faced the sudden attack.

Obviously, there are experts in this team. As soon as Raman and others took action, their whereabouts were revealed by the other party.

However, Laman and his party made a calculation without any intention. Under the secret attack, the "master" was unable to defeat the four hands with his fists. Although he successfully blocked one person's attack, the other four people behind the team who were attacked by the sneak attack were two dead and two injured. .

Faced with the shouts and questions, the five Lamans completely ignored them. Before taking action, they had already prepared various responses. In just a moment, they recognized the "master" who jumped out to save people. It was E Elvis Cleo.

At that moment, Carl turned around and slashed continuously with the giant ax in his hand, heading straight for Elvis's vitals.

"It's you!"

Elvis's eyes were blazing. He drew a knife to resist and shouted angrily. He had obviously recognized Laman and others.

In fact, Laman and the others did not cover their faces. After all, they were in the same county and their territories were adjacent. They were very familiar with each other. As long as they didn't take action, once they did, they couldn't hide their identities at all.

So, no need to bother.

At this moment, Raman and his son, captain Colen and butler Ryan, taking advantage of Carl's opportunity to hold Elvis back, took action and took away four more lives in an instant.

During the hunt half a month ago, the strength of the Elvis family's escort team was severely damaged, and all the masters died in the Youquan Mountains. At present, the highest strength in this team is only a fifth-level warrior, who is no match for Laman and the others.

Under the night, the shrill screams made people feel chilly in their hearts.

Just when Raman and the others had eliminated the last guard, Elvis finally forced Carl back. He saw him swipe the long knife in his hand, protect himself, and retreat at a high speed. He did not stop until he was more than ten meters away. Stay in shape.

Perhaps because he felt that victory was in sight, or perhaps in order to weaken Elvis's will, Laman did not pursue him, but instead whispered:

"Elvis, two against one, you have no chance, just go ahead and capture me. As long as I get what I want, I promise to spare your son's life, how about that?"

Elvis was completely unmoved, his eyes were fixed on Raman, and he asked in a sharp tone: "Raman, how did you know that I would set off tonight?"

Laman chuckled and said, "Elvis, you and I are not stupid, so why bother with unnecessary temptations. Don't you just want to know who tipped me off? So what if I tell you?"

Elvis was not disappointed when his own thoughts were seen through by Raman. Indeed, as Raman said, no one is stupid. His choice of traveling quietly at night was a temporary decision. Raman was able to accurately grasp his movements. There is only one possibility:

There are traitors around him who are tipping off the news!

However, it is not scary to have a traitor. What is scary is not knowing who the traitor is. Just now, Elvis had already gone through several people who knew about tonight's operation in his mind, but he still couldn't determine the identity of the traitor, which made him feel a shiver down his spine.

Hearing Raman's words, he took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "Who is it?"

"It's Bird, your butler. I didn't expect that, haha..."

Raman revealed the identity of the traitor without hesitation. After saying this, he smiled proudly.

Elvis's face had become very ugly, and his eyes were full of disbelief, "Bird? Impossible, how is this possible?"

The Bird mentioned by Laman is a fifth-level warrior who is over 60 years old. He has been the steward of Cleo family for more than 30 years, and he is also a native of the family territory. It is really embarrassing for such a person to choose to betray the lord. It's unbelievable.

According to normal circumstances, it is indeed impossible for Bird to betray, but people's hearts are fickle, not to mention that there are also factors of the Cleo family involved.

As mentioned before, in order to maintain the family's livelihood, Elvis' father often led the guards to hunt monsters. During this period, the guards suffered many casualties.

It so happened that Bird's two sons and one grandson both had good warrior talents and joined the guard one after another. Unfortunately, all three of them died in the Youquan Mountains.

Especially Bird's only grandson, who died in the war half a month ago. After his death, the Bird family was wiped out, which made Bird feel somewhat resentful.

By coincidence, at this moment, Bird accidentally discovered the truth about this hunting of Warcraft. This truth made Bird feel that his grandson's death was not worth it.

After that, the more he thought about it, the more resentful he became. Gradually, the idea of ​​revenge against the Cleo family came into his mind.

As the steward of the Cleo family, he knew very well that Baron Laman had been coveting the Cleo family for a long time, so Laman became Bird's partner.

Soon, the two parties got in touch. Under Bird's cover, Raman directly asked his confidants to lurk in the Cleo family's territory with the "Blue-Eyed Demon Falcon" raised by the family, so that the two parties could contact each other.

This Blue-Eyed Demonic Falcon is not a Warcraft and has no offensive capabilities. Its only advantage is its fast flight speed. It is often used as a short-distance messenger. It is raised in several towns in the Laman territory. This time, it can accurately grasp Elvis's actions. Just rely on it.

It just so happened that Elvis was seriously injured this time and needed treatment from at least an eighth-level light mage. With the prominent status of the eighth-level mage on the mainland, it was impossible for the Cleo family to ask someone to come to their home for treatment. , and may not even be able to come up with the gold coins needed for treatment.

Of course, there is another way, which is to purchase a healing magic scroll made by an eighth-level light mage.

However, this kind of scroll is very rare and not cheap. It may not be available in the county or city. Elvis neither has the time to wait nor is he worried about letting people buy it with large sums of money.

After much thought, he could only take action himself. However, the news that he was seriously injured had spread widely, and by his movements, outsiders could easily guess his purpose.

With such a sum of money and serious injuries, there was no guarantee that no robbers would try to take advantage of him.

Therefore, Elvis would quietly set out at night and rush to the county town as quickly as possible. If there were no healing scrolls for sale in the county town, he could at least hire a few mercenaries to protect him when he went to the provincial capital.

The plan was originally very careful, but a traitor appeared around him.

However, Elvis had experienced life and death after all, and he quickly adjusted his emotions and no longer thought about the reasons for Bird's betrayal. At this moment, he took a deep breath and said slowly:

“Raman, don’t you just want the wealth that our Cleo family has accumulated over the years?

"Yes, in order to treat the injury this time, I did bring all my family resources with me. I can hand over the money to you, and I can also treat what happened tonight as if it never happened. After you get the money, both of us will How about we end it here?"

Hearing this, Raman curled his lips and sneered: "Elvis, do you think it's possible?"

Elvis looked slightly ugly, and his voice became cold and cold.

"Raman, do you really want to go to such extreme lengths? Yes, I was seriously injured, but if you push me hard, it's not impossible for me to pull two people on my back before I die. Do you dare to bet?"

The corners of Raman's lips curled up, and he chuckled: "If you hadn't said that, I would have been a little worried, but now, I'm even more sure that your injuries this time are more serious than I thought!"

"You!" Elvis gritted his teeth and glared at Laman, his eyes blazing with anger.

Seeing this, Raman suddenly chuckled, "Okay, I was just joking. It's not impossible to let you go. However, in addition to gold coins, I also want one more thing. As long as you are willing to give it, I promise to do what I say." arrive."

Elvis's heart moved. It wasn't until this moment that he realized that Raman's goal was not gold coins. After thinking about it for a while, he felt slightly uneasy and subconsciously asked:

"what would you like?"

Raman's eyes opened and closed slightly, and his expression became serious for a moment, "Kung Fu, I want your Cleo family's secret book of inheritance!"

Before he finished speaking, Elvis's heart jumped suddenly. For a moment, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he quickly controlled his expression and said calmly:

"It's just a Dou Qi secret book. Although it is precious, the most important thing in warrior training is people. It's not impossible to share it with you. I agreed."

When Raman heard this, he suddenly sneered: "Don't agree so readily, I want not only the Dou Qi Secret Book, but also——

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then said word by word:

"And your Cleo family's secret method of transforming into monsters!"
