Master Tongtian

10 o'clock in the morning.

Near Chengnan Market, No. 45, Tianshui Lane.

At the main entrance of the small wooden building, an old woman with silver hair came out.

She wore a windproof wide-brim curtain hat on her head, carried a straw basket filled with dirty clothes in her left hand, and a wooden cane in her right hand. She was wearing a half-worn linen skirt and was limping. He walked towards the entrance of the alley.

A lame old woman dressed like this is often encountered on the road. She is inconspicuous at all, so naturally no one pays attention to her.

The old woman seemed to be in a hurry. Although her legs and feet were not working well, her speed was not slow, and she reached the entrance of the alley in a short while.

After exiting the alley, the old woman quickly turned her head and looked behind her, then turned right onto Riverside Avenue.

Next to the avenue is the Huangshui River, and the river is full of various boats.

There are also people coming and going on the avenue, small vendors hawking goods, cattle carts transporting goods, sailors resting ashore, prostitutes soliciting customers, etc., etc., making the riverside avenue almost packed.

The various noises were like a pot of boiling soup, almost deafening.

On such a road, this old woman is like a crucian carp returning to the river.

Not only did his walking speed increase a lot, but his figure was also looming, like bubbles in the water, seemingly disappearing at any time.

She walked quickly on the avenue for a while, then broke away from the crowd and went down the wooden ladder at the laundry port by the river until she reached the beach of the Yellow River.

The water in this river beach is very shallow, and not far from it is the laundry port. A dozen women gathered by the river, complaining about life while working hard to wash clothes.

Judging from the old woman's appearance, she seemed to be preparing to do laundry.

But surprisingly, she did not reach the pier in the end. Instead, she walked along the river beach and stopped only when she reached a secluded corner at the southernmost end.

This corner is covered with withered reed poles, which are so densely packed that they are as tall as a person. As long as one digs in or squats, even if one pays special attention, it is difficult to see what is going on inside.

The old woman squatted in the grass and quickly took off her hat and skirt, revealing a strong man's body.

He took out clean clothes and pants that were not stained with blood from the basket and quickly put them on.

Halfway through the process, a few "hissing" sounds suddenly appeared in the air.

The voice was not loud, and was almost covered by the voices in the port, but the man was extremely alert. When his face showed shock, a faint light flashed on the surface of his body, and he rushed forward quickly.

But it's still too late.

Because the object causing the wind howl flies extremely fast and arrives almost at the same time as the wind noise, there is no time to respond effectively.

Almost at the same time, the man's legs, knees, and shoulder sockets erupted with blood. The half-lit glow on his body was interrupted by the severe pain in his body and quickly dimmed.

"snort!"

The man groaned and fell to the ground.

Although he struggled hard, his hands and feet were completely out of control. He could only roll around in the mud like a fish on dry land, and soon he was covered in mud.

Blood flowed from the wound, quickly taking away the man's strength, and the excruciating pain also greatly weakened the man's will.

After struggling for a while, the man collapsed in the mud on the river beach.

He was panting, but his eyes showed a desperate look, his mouth was pursed tightly, and he stared in the direction of the river beach beside him.

He is waiting!

When the sneak attacker appears, he still retains his last bit of physical strength, which can support him in a desperate counterattack.

But he miscalculated again.

The sneak attacker didn't show up for a long time, and the blood that kept flowing was taking away the last bit of strength in his body.

There was a hint of panic in his brown-black eyes.

Gradually, he felt cold all over, and the world in front of him began to darken and turn black, but the severe pain of the wound gradually faded away and seemed to disappear.

This is a sign that life force has reached its limit and death is coming.

At this time, not to mention fighting back, it would take all his energy to stay conscious.

In the gradually dimming vision, the sneak attacker finally appeared.

It was indeed that half-grown boy.

The corners of the man's mouth trembled slightly, and a wry smile appeared on his mud-covered face.

He had been in the underground underworld of Silver Moon Castle for so many years and was considered a number one figure. He never expected to be defeated by a young boy.

What a great irony.

Severe pain came from the wound again. Under this strong stimulation, the originally vague consciousness became much clearer.

He felt his mouth being opened, and warm water was poured into his throat. It tasted sweet, salty, and a little greasy, and seemed to be some kind of healing potion.

As the warm water entered his stomach, he felt a warmth return to his cold body, and a little bit of the fading vitality returned.

His consciousness gradually became clearer and he saw his situation clearly.

He was still lying in the withered grass, and the wounds on his body were tightly tied with belts. Although the stretch was uncomfortable, the bleeding had stopped.

His hands and feet were tied with dozens of thick hemp ropes, which were so heavy that even if his body was completely intact, let alone being seriously injured, it would be difficult for him to break free.

The half-grown boy stood 3 meters away from him, holding a staff that was worth a lot in his hand. A pair of dark blue eyes were staring at him, his eyes were indifferent, without any emotion.

This is of course Rosen.

After he jumped out of the window and left, he quietly flew up to the roof and waited patiently for more than an hour before finally catching the cunning mouse.

As soon as the thought occurred, a sharp stone flew up from the ground and floated less than 10 centimeters in front of the opponent's mouth.

"Next, I ask and you answer. If you hesitate for more than three seconds, I will knock one of your teeth out."

After speaking, without waiting for the other party to respond, he immediately asked: "Name."

no respond.

Three seconds later, the stone fell, and the sharp edge of the stone hit one of the man's front teeth accurately.

'Well! ’

The man screamed in pain, but he only screamed half a cry before losing his voice.

It wasn't that he didn't want to scream, it was because his neck was strangled by an invisible force, preventing him from breathing out.

Because he couldn't breathe, the man's face turned red and purple. It wasn't until he was about to faint that the invisible force subsided.

‘Huh~~~’

He let out a long breath, uncontrollable fear appearing on his face.

"Name!" The cold voice came again.

"Tiger Claw Tatali."

"from where?"

"Hearth Town, Hearth Town in the south, is only half a day's journey from Silver Moon Castle."

"For what?"

"Do the dirty work. Those big shots care about reputation and don't like getting their hands dirty. Then I'll do it."

"Who do you serve then?"

"For money, I will serve whoever gives me money."

"Who gave you the money for the latest order?"

"I don't know. No, no, no, don't fight. I really don't know because the other party didn't show up at all."

"This job was assigned to me by old Murphy. Old Murphy was a shoe shiner at the Chengnan Market. He stayed under the big tree next to La Spring Cutlery Shop, shining people's shoes every day, and he knew many bright people. Big shot!”

Rosen looked back at the adventure log for a while, and soon discovered the existence of old Murphy at the corresponding location. He was an old man in his 50s, half buried in the earth.

"Very good, then what is your single task?"

"It was killing, killing Alchemist Stan. We two did it together, one did it and the other took care of it. But my brother's wolf's head has been broken off."

"you are lying!"

'Snapped! ’

The man's second front tooth was broken, but only half of it was broken. The other half was still on the gum. The extreme soreness and numbness gave the man a rich expression on his face.

"Everything I said is true!"

"Since we are brothers who worked together, you are just watching when your brother is in trouble? Don't you do something to help him out?"

"This is a rule on the road. You must not confront the guards in broad daylight. However, when Langtou is imprisoned, I will find a way to get him."

Rosen believed 80% of it, and now that he had further clues, the half-disabled man in front of him was useless.

Since the other party is a white glove, even if he dies, it will only be counted as a gang vendetta, and Silver Moon Castle officials will not meddle in their own business.

And if he doesn't die, he may have to face revenge from the other party.

After weighing it for a moment, Rosen's thoughts condensed, and an iron bead flew out with a roar, and 'pop' got into the man's eye socket.

The man's body was shaken and he died.

Rosen walked over, waved his staff, and five iron beads came out of the man's wound. They flew into the river and circled a few times. After washing away the blood, they flew back into Rosen's pocket.

With another wave of the staff, more than a dozen pebbles floated up, as if they were alive, and one after another they got into the man's mouth and into his belly, making the man's belly bulge.

Then, the man's body floated up, entered the water, and floated forward for more than 40 meters in the water. After reaching the deep water area, he sank.

It's winter now, and the river water is extremely cold. By the time the other party's body rots and floats to the surface, it should be the beginning of next spring.

By that time, there were no clues left, and nothing could be found about him.

After doing all this, Rosen checked carefully and cleared all the traces he had left. He used a flying technique and returned to Binjiang Avenue.

After that, without stopping for a moment, he ran all the way to the market in the south of the city.

At 12 noon, he came to the tableware store and saw old Murphy sitting by the roots of a tree, chewing dry bread.

He walked over and sat down next to old Murphy, and a gold crown jumped into his pocket.

Old Murphy was startled, and his sparse beard covered with bread crumbs trembled slightly.

"Young man, it doesn't cost so much to shine your shoes."

A faint smile appeared on Rosen's face, and he whispered: "Who gave you the list of Tiger Claw Tatali? Just tell me and I will leave immediately."

Old Murphy lowered his head and continued to eat dry bread, silent.

Two more gold crowns flew into his pocket.

Old Murphy still didn't speak, but his withered face trembled and he stopped talking.

Another 2 gold crowns flew in.

Old Murphy finally couldn't stand it any longer: "Young man, I'm just a messenger, I don't know much. Besides, I said, I can no longer do the work of a middleman."

He was answered with another 2 gold crowns.

This is too much money, and someone who gives so much money without even blinking is definitely a ruthless character.

Old Murphy knows that this kind of person is usually easy to talk to, but once his patience is exhausted, he will be struck by a thunder blow.

He covered his heavy pocket and his beard kept trembling: "Give me two more and I'll tell you!"

He had already made up his mind to take the money and run away.
