Chapter 40 Ni Kun
Regarding the bloody massacre in Song Village, the story has to start with the martial law and strict investigation at the south entrance of Baojiao County tonight. The reason is as follows.

Two hours ago.

Just as Chen Ku stepped into the Lian family medicine mountain.

Behind Lianjia Yaoshan,
crunch~
In the quiet forest, a pair of official boots stepped on broken branches and stepped over rotten leaves.

A man walked out from behind a big tree. He was a constable from Baojiao County.

Li Yuancheng was walking in the forest, holding a torch and a knife on his waist.

He was about thirty years old, in the prime of his life, with agile arms and thin waist, a tiger head and sharp eyes, and a slight beard around his lips, showing his maturity and experience.

He walked by holding a torch, and behind him followed seven county constables who were also dressed in black, with long swords on their waists, bows on their backs, and holding torches in their hands.

"Brother Li, we have to do all the dirty work. Everyone knows how vicious Ni Kun is. He even killed Lao Zhao from the fast class. He is a real desperado."

A young constable following behind Li Yuancheng complained:

"He's an internal energy master. Only you, Brother Li, can contend with him. If the rest of us were to meet him, we'd be helpless."

Li Yuancheng glanced at him and said, "Even if you don't want to, it's not too late to leave now. Opportunities are sought in danger. If it weren't so dangerous, why would I bring you here..."

The young constable remained silent.

No more talking.

Li Yuancheng heard the silence and didn't say much.

A pair of sharp eyes stared at the village ahead.

Ever since his elder brother-in-law got arrested for committing a crime, he was also implicated in the Baojiao County Office. He was removed from his original position as deputy chief constable and reduced to an ordinary fast-shift constable.

Over the past year, there has been not a day that goes by where he hasn't thought about solving a major case or capturing some big bandit leader and regaining his position.

Ni Kun...

This smuggler, who had once attacked and killed a constable in the Inner Qi Realm, is now charged with numerous crimes and has become a notorious thief and bandit.

Now, not only is the reward for Ni Kun's arrest warrant up to 500 taels, but there is also a major smuggling channel between Ji and Yuan countries behind him.

If I could arrest him myself...

According to some recent intelligence reports from the county, someone seemed to have seen traces of someone suspected to be Ni Kun in Song Village of Caotang Town in the southern suburbs.

The constables led by Li Yuancheng moved quickly in the forest like a black shadow, heading straight for Song Village.

…………

Let’s go back to the present Song Village.

Inside or outside a house, a tall figure holding a long, soft curved knife sharply cut the neck of a woman in the house.

A moment later, the blade was seen trembling at the wound of the woman, like a living snake...

All the blood gushing out from the woman's neck flowed along the blood groove on the blade and was absorbed by the entire knife.

The blade stayed there for ten breaths.

Then, the tall man pulled out the knife.

Under the moonlight, the edge of the knife was dark red with a faint hint of blood, which was extremely terrifying.

"The Blood Knife Sect's Blood Knife."

Li Yuancheng led the remaining three constables and chased after them in a hurry. Upon closer inspection, they saw that all the remaining three constables were injured, and one of them even had three fingers broken.

There were eight constables when they came here before, but now there are only four left. Needless to say, four of them have already sacrificed their lives.

There was also a bloodstain on Li Yuancheng's chest, but it seemed that he dodged in time and did not injure his internal organs. It was only a one-foot-long bloodstain, which he had stopped the bleeding.

"Blood Blade Sect, Blood Blade, Ni Kun! So this is the truth behind why you were able to kill an internal energy master in this county last time!"

Li Yuancheng rushed towards Ni Kun with a cold face and holding his official knife. In an instant, he was ten feet away.

The official sword in his hand was faintly attached with a domineering aura, cutting through the air and slashing at Ni Kun's face in the blink of an eye.

Faced with this sharp sword technique.

Ni Kun, who had been wanted by the whole county for several months, had a slightly pale face, but he was not surprised but sneered. He was not afraid at all because the bloody knife in his hand had just sucked the blood of more than a dozen people.

He raised his hand and swung his knife, then collided head-on with it!

The two swords slashed at each other! Clang!
Sparks flew, blood escaped, and the two men looked at each other face to face, reflecting each other.

boom!
The next moment, two violent sword auras collided and spread from the two men's swords, like a loud thunder exploding in the air.

The fierce wind from the sword blew the hair and clothes of the two men, and at the same time, they were pushed back several steps by each other's internal energy.

Take a few steps back at the same time.

Ni Kun also laughed coldly:

"The 'hundred-battle swordsmanship' of the border troops of the Daji Dynasty, as well as their 'military internal energy', are indeed sharp. It's a pity that such a brave man, after retiring, only got a small job as a constable. It's really sad."

But, he hadn't finished yet.

call out!call out!call out!
The sounds of several arrows breaking through the air followed Li Yuancheng's retreating figure, brushed past him, and went straight to Ni Kun's forehead, heart, and internal organs.

It was the three constables carrying bows and arrows behind Li Yuancheng who had been waiting for a long time to release their bows.

As fast-moving constables, they usually catch thieves and seize stolen goods, and they fight against all kinds of thieves who practice martial arts. They do most of the dirty and tiring work. In addition, the one they are dealing with this time is a big thief, so naturally there is tactical tacit understanding and coordination.

As these three arrows were shot out, Ni Kun was repelled by Li Yuancheng and his men. He retreated again and again, with his old strength dissipated and his new strength not yet rising. When he saw three sharp arrows with a force of a thousand pounds shot from a thousand-pound bow, his face changed drastically.

He chopped with his sword as hard as he could and used his footwork to dodge, but even though he cut off one arrow and dodged another, he was still hit in the left arm by an arrow.

Poof! The arrow went straight through the flesh and lodged in the arm.

"Despicable!" Ni Kun screamed in pain and cursed angrily.

"Stupid, do you think I can challenge you in a one-on-one duel?"

Li Yuancheng had a grim expression on his face. He had just been hit with the most unbearable thing for his identity, so he swung his sword again.

Just like that, with Li Yuancheng at the front, several constables behind him drew their bows and arrows.

The five men fought, chased, and retreated at the same time. The flashes of swords and the auras of swords collided with each other, and arrows broke through the air and tore into the flesh...

But he didn't notice it at all.

A white-haired terrier followed and watched nearby. Just like that, the chase lasted for more than a quarter of an hour. Although Ni Kun was hit by two arrows, he also seized the opportunity to kill two archers and constables. With the help of the sharp blood knife, he directly cut off Li Yuancheng's official knife and took the opportunity to sprinkle a handful of white powder...

"Li Yuancheng was totally unprepared and was sprayed all over his face, not entering his mouth or nose. His mind was buzzing at that moment: "Not good! This beast is even more despicable, it's... knockout drug..."

My head started to feel dizzy instantly.

"Brother Li!" In dizziness, he could only hear the voice of the only surviving constable behind him rushing up to support him, and then his ears were filled with noise.

Fortunately, Ni Kun, who was hit by three arrows, was also seriously injured. The three arrows pierced his arm, thigh and chest respectively. The key point was the chest, which made him dare not stay to make a finishing move and he just ran away for his life.

not far away,
A hint of human wisdom flashed in the white-haired dog's eyes, and finally locked onto Ni Kun's scent, and followed him slowly from five miles behind...

Ni Kun escaped for ten miles away.

Running away and cursing:
"You damn detective, you bastard, I will remember you. When my arrow wound heals, I will kill your entire family first!"

He didn't dare to pull out the arrow from his body.

Suddenly, the blood knife in his hand sensed the blood on his body and began to transmit a suction force to his wounds, causing the wounds on his body to bleed continuously.

Ni Kun, who was already pale, looked even more pale as if a large tube of blood had been drawn. His face was almost transparent, and he said in horror:

"Blood Knife, Blood Knife, why do you want to bite me at this moment?"

Although he knew from the day he inherited the Blood Knife Sect that the Blood Knife was a deadly weapon, it was also a double-edged sword. Due to its special manufacturing method, it was inherently bloodthirsty and did not distinguish between friend and foe.

"Ah~"

Feeling the bloody knife in his hand like an insatiable bottomless pit sucking his blood, Ni Kun finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Looking around, I saw that there was no one around, only a lonely grave mound, cold and desolate, obviously a mass grave.

He finally held on to his body and came to a grave, muttering to the bloody knife:
"Baby, please forgive me today. You stay here quietly. When I recover from my injury, I will come to satisfy you!"

After he finished speaking, he dug a big hole on the grave mound, buried the bloody knife in it, and finally covered it with soil. With a look of reluctance on his face, he dared not touch it again. Finally, he supported his broken body and left in the night.

Of course,
But less than half an hour after Ni Kun buried the precious sword, a white-haired dog came to the mass grave with its nose, sniffed around, and finally, it smelled a grave and started digging on all fours...

After a while, he dug out the precious sword and took it away with his mouth.
