Peerless ruthless man, cut down the world

Chapter 3 Eighth Grade Martial Artist

Fade Chen was stunned for a moment, and said: "I didn't ask anything, they just said that they were impulsive after drinking...My lord, is there any problem?"

Gu Zhan nodded slightly, and said: "I carefully recalled the situation that day. Those gangsters went to the tavern after I entered the tavern. They didn't drink as much as I did, and they started to go crazy. Everyone is crazy, and it happens that I don't like it, it's a bit too coincidental."

Fade Chen frowned, and said, "My lord suspects that they are deliberately targeting you?"

Gu Zhan nodded slightly, and said: "I suspect that someone is behind the scenes, otherwise, just a few ruffians, even if they don't know my identity, they may not dare to kill people."

Fade Chen said in a deep voice, "Then I'll go for another trial."

"I'll go in person." Gu Zhan said.

After finishing speaking, Gu Zhan took the horizontal knife and went out.

Fade Chen hurriedly followed.

……

The dungeon of Linjiang Mansion was directly under the jurisdiction of Jin Yiwei. After Gu Zhan came in, he immediately revealed his identity. Soon, some jailers brought those ruffians into the interrogation room.

Gu Zhan walked through the dark and narrow passage and came to an interrogation room.
The prison, which was already somewhat gloomy, suddenly became hot and humid.

Because the interrogation room was burning with raging charcoal fire, all kinds of soldering iron tools were burning red, iron brushes, bamboo sticks, whips and other instruments of torture were all available.

The three ruffians were being chained to stakes.

Gu Zhan has a deep memory of these people, because he was beaten and seriously injured by these gangsters in his previous life. If Fade Chen hadn't passed by, he might have been beaten to death on the spot.

The identities of these hooligans have also been investigated clearly.
It is the hooligans who often hang out in the market, they are the kind of people who can eat enough for one person and the whole family is not hungry. On weekdays, they always do some stealing or cheating and robbery.

Gu Zhan waved his hand lightly, and let the accompanying jailers leave. In the interrogation room, only he, Fade Chen and those three hooligans were left.

Gu Zhan's face was flat, he walked over slowly, lightly fiddled with the red-hot iron, and said in a deep voice, "You guys, do you still recognize me?"

"I recognize it."

The leading ruffian in the middle said with a hippie smile, "Master Gu, Mr. Gu, I really misunderstood you. If we knew your identity, we wouldn't dare to do anything to you with all our guts!"

"Just recognize it." Gu Zhan looked at Fade Chen and asked, "What punishment did they sentence?"

Fade Chen hurriedly replied: "A sum of money and a one-year sentence in prison."

Gu Zhan nodded slightly, and asked again: "Lieutenant Chen, in this dungeon, some people die for no apparent reason every year, right?"

Fade Chen replied: "It's natural."

The gangsters panicked immediately, and the leading gangster hurriedly said: "Master Gu, you can't abuse the lynching, we have already pleaded guilty, and the yamen have also sentenced us..."

"Chong"

A sound of golden spear came out, white light flashed,

The horizontal knife in Gu Zhan's hand suddenly came out of its sheath, and the knife cut through the throat of the bastard, and in an instant, blood sprayed.

"Uh...uh..."

The hooligan was shocked, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he could only make a small sound. His mouth was instantly filled with blood, and he lost his vitality very quickly.

At that moment,

The remaining two hooligans trembled all over, with shock on their faces,

Even Fade Chen was startled, and looked at Gu Zhan in surprise.

A mechanically synthesized voice sounded in Gu Zhan's mind:

【Experience value +5】

He squinted his eyes slightly, and sure enough, as he guessed, the experience points obtained by killing different people are different, it should be the same as the game setting, the higher the combat power, the higher the experience points.

Gently shaking the bloody horizontal knife in his hand, Gu Zhan slowly looked at the other two hooligans.

at this time,

The two hooligans were already pale with fright, and their eyes were full of horror.

"My... my lord, please forgive me..."

"My lord, please forgive me, we really didn't mean it..."

"My lord, I have an eighty-year-old mother..."

Gu Zhan raised his eyelids slightly, and said softly: "I'll give you one chance at last, who ordered you to kill me?"

A trace of panic flashed in the eyes of the two hooligans.

A ruffian swallowed his saliva and said, "My... my lord, it's really just a misunderstanding, no one..."

There was a soft sound of "噗味", and the sound of the blade piercing the flesh came.

The ruffian who spoke looked down at the horizontal knife that had been inserted into his heart, two mouthfuls of blood gushed out of his mouth, and he died quickly.

【Experience value +6】

The system beep sounded again in my mind.

Gu Zhan didn't pay too much attention, but slowly drew out his knife, looked at the last bastard who was already frightened, and said, "I am very impatient, so if you want righteousness to be the first, I can also fulfill your righteousness... ..."

"I said, I said!"

The ghost of the local ruffian was so frightened that he hurriedly said: "Zhang Peng from Jinyiwei Hundred Households Office in Nancheng asked us to do it. Mr. Gu, we were also deceived. We really don't know your identity. That Zhang Peng told us about you!" It's a foreigner who gave us 100 taels of silver and asked us to kill you.

This is not the first time we have done this kind of thing. After all, outsiders, no one cares if they die. The big deal is to go out and hide for a while to avoid the limelight. Master Gu, really, if we knew your identity earlier, give us Ten dare not dare,

We knew that things were going to be troublesome, so we prepared to escape, but we were caught by Chen Xiaowei. Lord Gu, please forgive me. I really didn’t know it was you. It was Zhang Peng who was harming us. He was the one who wanted to kill you... "

That bastard was about to cry in fright, begging hysterically.

Gu Zhan frowned slightly, looked at Fade Chen, and asked, "Who is this Zhang Peng?"

Chen Fei's face was a little ugly, and he said slowly: "My lord, there is only one person named Zhang Peng in Nancheng Hundred Households Office. After all, he is still your subordinate, but just a few days after you came to the Hundred Households Office, the people under him are still there. I didn’t recognize him completely, so I didn’t recognize him.”

Gu Zhan carefully searched his memory, but found that he had never dealt with this Jin Yiwei named Zhang Peng in his previous life, and the two should have no life-and-death enmity.

"Did my father have a grudge against Zhang Peng?" Gu Zhan asked.

He could only think of one reason.

Chen Fei's face was ugly, and he said slowly: "My lord, I'm afraid it's not your father who has enmity with him, but you."

"Me?" Gu Zhan asked suspiciously, "Why don't I know?"

Fade Chen took a deep breath and said, "My lord, this Zhang Peng has no direct conflict with you, but he is the confidant of Captain Cao Feng..."

Fade Chen didn't say anything up to this point.

However, Gu Zhan already understood what Fade Chen meant.

Gu Zhan, a small banner, has four school lieutenants, and this Cao Feng is one of them, and he is also the oldest of the four school lieutenants.

Originally, Gu Zhan's father died, and Cao Feng was the most hopeful to take Xiaoqi's position. Even if Gu Zhan came to fill the vacancy, he should start as a strongman. At that time, it was directly parachuted into a small flag.

Gu Zhan immediately understood,

Cao Feng must have held a grudge, and directly killed the killer. After all, as long as he died, Cao Feng could take Xiaoqi's position again.

Gu Zhan's face was gloomy, he pointed to the ruffian, and said, "Send someone to watch over him, don't let him die."

After finishing speaking, Gu Zhan strode out of the interrogation room.

After a while, Fade Chen followed and asked, "My lord, what are you going to do?"

"Purchasing someone to kill someone, or attacking and killing the Shangguan, of course it is to get someone," Gu Zhan said coldly, "Let's go and capture that Zhang Peng first, even if Cao Feng has ten lives, it won't be enough to cut him off!"

while walking,

Gu Zhan summoned the system and started adding points,
A system notification sounded in my mind:

[Xuan Yuan Gong upgraded to the second level]

[The current realm has been upgraded to the eighth rank]
