I have a book of salvation

Old street in the south of the city, Zhengqinggang, noon.

Xie Qing locked himself in the attic, dismissed all his men, and released the paper birds that carried the message.

Not long after, a dark figure appeared behind him, silently, like a ghost.

Xie Qing suddenly turned his head and saw a figure with a grimace that seemed to be crying and smiling, leaning on the attic.

"Is there any news?" A hoarse voice came from under the grimace.

Although Xie Qing couldn't see Yu Chen's expression, he could feel the sound in the voice, as if a blood-thirsty beast had smelled its prey.

After swallowing, Xie Qing didn't dare to show off, and handed Yu Chen a note while saying: "Senior, Xiao Zihua's family property has been confiscated now, and he can't run far after escaping from prison. It just so happens that we placed him in the Blackwater Gang The secret agent found out that the Blackwater Gang was given to Xiao Zihua in a small courtyard eighty miles south of the city. Before the Yamen found out, I sent someone to take a look, and he was indeed there! "

After that, he pointed to the note and said, "This is the address."

Yu Chen picked up the note, looked at it, nodded, and went out.

The figure disappeared into the wind and snow.

Only Xie Qing was left, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

——For some reason, when facing Yu Chen this time, he felt unprecedented pressure!

That feeling was like seeing a terrifying undercurrent surging under the calm sea.

Outside Weishui City, eighty miles south.

Far away from the official road, in a quiet jungle, there is a small courtyard.

Although the place is remote, it is quite elegant and unique.

It is made of gray bricks and blue tiles, with vines twining around the exterior walls. There are green plants in the courtyard. There is a four-legged pavilion with a stone table and a few small stools. There is also an unknown big tree planted in the corner. Bare branches covered most of the courtyard.

At this moment, a middle-aged man in his forties, wrapped in a thick cotton quilt, was sitting on a stone bench, looking anxiously in the direction outside the courtyard.

Xiao Zihua has been very anxious these days, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Previously, after the incident involving the three brothers of the Ji family came out, their uncle, Ji Liuye from the Blackwater Gang, found him and asked him to do some internal manipulation to absolve several people of their guilt.

After some discussion, experts from the Blackwater Gang replaced the physical evidence of the arrest house on Linshui Street and succeeded in freeing the three Ji family brothers.

Therefore, Xiao Zihua also received a lot of benefits.

——This courtyard far away from the hustle and bustle is one of them.

But what I didn't expect was that that night, the Dongchuang incident occurred, which involved a lot of shady things.

——Someone sneaked into his house and took all the bribes he had received over the years to the Audit Department.

Later, people from the Inspection Department came overnight and ransacked his home. He was also taken away and thrown into jail for investigation.

Fortunately, there was Xiao Zihua in the prison. After some manipulation, he escaped from prison, escaped from the Weishui River overnight, and hid in this remote courtyard.

But even if he escaped, he could not feel at ease.

Because at this time, his home was ransacked and all his property was confiscated. It can be said that except for a little bit of loose money he had with him, he didn't have any money.

Even if he wanted to run away, he wouldn't be able to go anywhere.

Therefore, Xiao Zihua could only place his hope on Ji Liuye of the Blackwater Gang, hoping that he would raise some money to escape from the Weishui River and discuss the aftermath.

But it had been more than two days since the message was sent, and there was no response at all. Xiao Zihua was getting more and more anxious and unbearable!

The sky gradually became dark.

The howling wind and snow were fast and fierce.

But on the narrow path leading to the outside world, there was no trace of anyone coming.

Xiao Zihua's heart gradually sank.

He felt that he might have been given up.

The Blackwater Gang is only interested in profit, and now that he has lost his identity as the chief arrester of the Weishui River, he naturally has no use value.

"Ji Laoliu...and the leader of the Blackwater Gang..."

Xiao Zihua's face turned gloomy, and he gnashed his teeth, like a beast with red eyes under the dim oil lamp.

Jingle Bell--

Suddenly, Xiao Zihua heard a ringing sound, which was extremely clear even in the howling wind and snow!

He was stunned.

I thought to myself, could it be that the Blackwater Gang received his message and someone finally arrived?

Thinking of this, Xiao Zihua couldn't help but feel hot in his heart!

Jingle Bell--

The ringing sound came to mind again.

But Xiao Zihua was horrified to find that when the ringtone echoed in his ears, his spirit seemed to be sleepy and drowsy.

At that moment, bite the tip of your tongue and stay awake.

Xiao Zihua's heart thumped, and an ominous premonition arose.

He picked up the long knife in the room, put on a posture, and became alert!

Although he holds a high position and has not done anything for a long time, after all, he once studied under the first master of Weishui River, Yu Tiesheng, and the foundation of horizontal muscle training is still there!

If he were an ordinary thief, there would be nothing he could do to stop him!

Crunch——

There was a harsh scraping sound of wood, and the closed door was pushed open.

The wind, snow, chill and dark night all rushed into the house at the same time, making Xiao Zihua shiver all over!

Then he saw it.

In the dark night, an even darker figure walked into the house through the wind, snow and night.

He was dressed in a dark robe, with a mask on his face that looked like he was crying and laughing. When he stepped, he made no sound, not like a living person.

At that moment, Xiao Zihua's heart exploded!

This outfit... looks familiar?

oops!

Xiao Zihua slapped his thigh!

Black clothes and black robes!

Ghostface mask!

Why does this costume look so much like the head-picking demon that was rumored to be so miraculous that it took off the heads of the three brothers of the Ji family? !

Although Xiao Zihua had already been taken away by the Inspection Department when the three brothers of the Ji family died, so he did not see the death of the three brothers of the Ji family with his own eyes.

But this kind of thing spread throughout the entire Wei River. Even when Xiao Zihua was in prison, of course the jailer mentioned it several times.

Did he think this movie was nonsense at that time?

What kind of head-picking evil spirit?

It was probably a rival gang from the Blackwater Gang who took advantage of troubled waters and caused that bloody massacre!

Mr. Xiao of the Weishui River does not believe in ghosts and gods!

It wasn't until that figure actually appeared in front of him that he suddenly realized it!

That is true!

The head-picking ghost walked into the room and didn't look anxious. He looked around the room without saying a word.

The atmosphere was dull and somewhat depressing.

Xiao Zihua could even hear the beating of his heart in his chest!

"Who are you? Don't pretend to be a ghost!" He held a long knife, took a deep breath, and asked coldly.

no respond.

"Did not say?"

Xiao Zihua's eyes turned cold, he reached forward with his left foot, rushed forward with a single lunge, and slashed his head with the sharp sword!

The cold blade tore through the air without mercy!

But just when the blade was about to hit the ghost-faced man's forehead, Xiao Zihua suddenly saw the opponent's hand move. It was so fast that it brought up the afterimage, and he actually took the white blade with his bare hands and grasped the bright long knife!

boom!

Just like cutting down the trunk of a thick century-old tree, with a dull sound, Xiao Zihua's knife could no longer make an inch forward!

The expression of the former Weishui chief arrester suddenly changed!

The body is like gold and iron, hard to be hurt by weapons! This is an innate body!

Damn it! When did Weishui gain another innate master?

Xiao Zihua roared in his heart, but he was not slow at all in closing his hand and was about to draw the knife and retreat!

But at that moment, he froze.

That hand grasped the blade like an iron pliers, forcefully!

Accompanied by the harsh twisting sound of steel, the grimace man actually squeezed the long knife into a curl!

Xiao Zihua was horrified, knowing that he was no match for him, so he threw down his long knife, jumped up with his legs, and ran out of the house, escaping into the night!

escape!

Must escape!

This is by no means an opponent that can be defeated!

In an instant, Xiao Zihua had no other thoughts in his mind!

But after catapulting out of the house, Xiao Zihua was horrified to find that the grim-faced man who was still at the door had stood at the gate of the courtyard at some point, blocking his way!

He moved!

With just one step, he crossed the wind and snow and landed in front of Xiao Zihua!

Grab Xiao Zihua's shoulders and throw him!

boom!

The body of the former Weishui Chief Constable hit the wall heavily like a rag doll, making a dull collision sound!

broken!

The bone is broken!

Xiao Zihua, who was beaten to pieces, clearly felt that his leg bones had been broken in the terrible fall just now!

Then, as soon as he came back to his senses from the dizzying situation, he saw the ghost face already close to his face.

Like an evil spirit seeking life.

"Don't worry, the night is still long."

The hoarse, cold voice came from under the face that looked like crying and smiling.

"——Let's take our time."

Brothers, we have to work overtime on the construction site today, so I will update one chapter. It will return to normal tomorrow with two updates (.︿.)
