"Captain Zhao."

Captain Zhao was about to take a rest when suddenly there was a rapid knock on the door outside the house.

He was a little confused.

Mrs. Zhao, who was lying on the bed, heard the sound outside and was a little confused. She said, "Is the person outside a little anxious? It will be troublesome if they knock on our door. Go and have a look."

"I know."

Captain Zhao was a little depressed.

He got up, put on his clothes, and went outside.

"I'm here, stop knocking."

At the same time, he felt sorry for his door. If he knocked on it again, it would almost fall apart.

"Captain Zhao, something happened."

Captain Zhao saw clearly that the person who came was actually a soldier. He couldn't help but wondered, "What happened?"

"Quick, go to Xiangmanlou."

"Eh? I haven't put on my armor yet."

"Hey, don't put it on, come with me."

"This..."

Captain Zhao looked at the soldier's expression with panic and uneasiness. He had a premonition that something big had happened.

Suddenly, he remembered that Li Taihang asked him not to go out at night.

"Wait."

"What for?"

Captain Zhao quickly broke free, ran back and put on his armor, and also took his weapons.

The officer and soldier were also anxious to death by Captain Zhao when they saw this.

"Let's go."

Captain Zhao took a deep breath.

He and the officers and soldiers came to Xiangmanlou together, and when he saw the miserable situation inside, he was stunned.

"What is going on?"

Immediately, an officer and soldier explained the situation here to him. When Captain Zhao heard it, he took a breath of cold air.

Fortunately, he listened to Li Taihang's advice and did not go out, otherwise, he would have died here tonight.

"Quick, seal off the scene, seal off the whole scene, and only allow entry but not exit unless required by the mission. In addition, send someone to notify the governor immediately."

"Yes."

Captain Zhao got busy.

Tonight, so many people suddenly died again, and they were big shots. The whole Guangming Mansion might explode.

All this made Captain Zhao a little overwhelmed.

After Captain Zhao arranged all this, he ordered people to deal with the bodies.

At the same time, he sent people to notify the dignitaries and wealthy businessmen everywhere to take their people away.

Although they were all dead bodies at this time.

"Captain Zhao, according to our investigation, the death of the prefect and others is related to these people."

"Can you find out their identities?"

"They seem to be in the same group as the original bandits."

"Why?"

"Because when the battle took place, someone shouted to avenge their brothers!"

"Well, let me see."

Then, Captain Zhao checked the bodies of these people and found that they were really in the same group as the previous bandits.

Because the bandit mark was found on their bodies.

And this mark is the same as the bandits they caught.

What happened in Xiangmanlou, Guangming Mansion, caused a huge sensation.

In particular, the scandal that broke out swept the entire empire.

When the emperor learned about it, he was furious.

I'm afraid many people will lose their heads, and although Captain Zhao had nothing to do with all this and also stated that he would not participate, he was also afraid of being implicated.

Fortunately, after all this happened, the higher-ups quickly sent people down.

And because Captain Zhao did not go along with the others, he was appreciated and rewarded by the emperor, and his official position was promoted to inspector, becoming the first military commander of Guangming Prefecture in one fell swoop, controlling the military power of the entire Guangming Prefecture.

A few days later, Captain Zhao brought a team of people to Liujia Village.

He came to thank Li Taihang specially.

As a result, he came up empty-handed.

At this time, Li Taihang had already gone to the territory of Songzhou Prefecture with the representatives sent by the sect to handle the matter of upgrading the sect.

Longshan Town.

The third elder Liu Jian saw that it was getting late, and found a town ahead, so he made arrangements.

"Let's rest here for one night and set off tomorrow."

"Okay, third elder."

Everyone flew on the sword and landed in Longshan Town.

It was late at this time, and there were few pedestrians on the street.

They came to the inn in the town and asked for a few rooms.

At night, everyone fell asleep.

But a group of people sneaked to the inn.

"The target is on the second floor. Their room number is here. After you look at it, assassinate according to the arranged target."

"Yes, sir."

These men in black quickly entered the inn.

The people in the inn had been bribed long ago, and they also leaked the residence of Li Taihang and others.

When they came to the second floor, the entire corridor on the second floor was very quiet.

They walked quietly to avoid being discovered.

And outside the inn, there were also men in black lying in ambush, waiting for the situation to go wrong, and then they would immediately go to support.

It can be said that this time, in order to deal with the people of Xuanwu Sect, they really sent out their best.

"They are coming." After sensing the situation outside, the third elder Liu Jian reminded in a low voice.

There were other disciples in his room, including Li Taihang.

Li Taihang told the third elder about the problems that might arise tonight.

And the third elder also knew Li Taihang's ability, so he discussed with Li Taihang.

Why not just use the opponent's tactics against them and kill all those who are planning to launch a sneak attack on them this time.

At this time, everyone in the room gathered together.

There were seven of them, including the third elder Liu Jian, the saint Li Taihang, and five other inner sect elite disciples.

On the surface, they all went back to their respective rooms to rest, but in fact, they all gathered in the third elder's room.

"Elder, shall we start?" a disciple asked.

"No hurry, the appetizers haven't been served yet."

"Okay."

These disciples didn't say anything more.

Instead, they listened to the movement outside with Liu Jian and Li Taihang.

At this time, those men in black sneaked into the room and were about to attack their opponents.

They had already agreed on a time, and after finding the target, they immediately started.

But after they entered, they found that the targets seemed to be sleeping.

"Great, they dared to sleep at this time."

"It shows that they are not prepared at all."

"Hehe, they deserve to die."

These men in black quickly stepped forward and prepared to kill the people sleeping on the bed.

However, when they started, they were surprised to find that there was no one on the bed they rushed to.

"It's fake."

"Oh no, we've been tricked."

But they only realized it now, it was too late.

"Run!"

The same thing happened in other rooms, they all found that their targets had disappeared.

"Retreat."

However, just when they were about to retreat, these rooms had already been tampered with by Li Taihang and others.

"Boom."

"Ah!"

The people who rushed in were hit one by one and fell to the ground.
