Gou became a god or devil after splitting his body

The Jin Mansion has an outer wall, and guards are always patrolling along the wall.

This outer wall is two feet high and three feet thick, only slightly inferior to the walls of some small cities.

It's not that the Jin family doesn't have the strength to build a taller outer wall, but there is no need to do so.

If the enemy has reached the Jin Mansion, even if the outer wall is built higher and thicker than the wall of Linjiang City, it will be useless.

Therefore, this outer wall is only to defend against some thieves and assassins, mainly to prevent assassins. I have never seen any thief dare to steal the things of the Jin family.

However, soon, the guards patrolling under the wall will see it.

"Who is it?"

Looking at the figure coming, the patrolling team of ten guards grabbed the weapons on their waists.

The captain in the lead shouted loudly, aiming to gather his companions around.

"It's me."

Li Yan walked out of the darkness and appeared unarmed under the light of their lanterns.

"It turns out to be the Golden Dog Manager. I wonder what's the matter that Golden Dog Manager is still awake so late."

Seeing that it was a familiar face and that he had no weapons on him, the captain couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, as part of his duty, he still had to ask why Golden Dog was not awake so late and wandering around.

"I've been feeling a little restless recently and can't sleep, so I'm walking around. I'm sorry, I'll leave now."

Li Yan sighed and spoke gently.

"You're too polite. You didn't scare us. It was my loud voice just now that frightened you. I should apologize to you."

The team leader didn't dare to be arrogant and hurriedly said politely.

In the Jin Mansion, no matter what he does, as long as he is surnamed Jin, people with other surnames will be polite to him.

However, he soon realized that something was wrong.

"When did the old dog Golden Dog speak so politely?"

However, his reaction was too slow.

Taking advantage of a few words, Li Yan had already approached them less than ten feet away.

This distance, for them, is the distance between life and death.

Qi and blood burst out, Li Yan raised his right palm to make a knife, and the blood and qi covered the entire right hand, which immediately made a sharp aura permeate.

Then, it was ten consecutive kills.

It didn't even take Li Yan more than a breath to deal with these people.

After all, they are all flesh refining realm, and only the captain is in bone refining realm.

Such a gap in strength, for Li Yan, who is not afraid of injury, if he can't kill them quickly, he doesn't need to practice martial arts, and just go back to farming.

After killing these people, Li Yan didn't stop at all, crossed the two-meter-high outer wall of the Jin Mansion, and then disappeared.

At the same time, a person who looked like him appeared seamlessly in his previous position.

He didn't stop at all, and rushed towards the firewood room.

This is Li Yan's new clone, who came to replace the previous clone and go undercover in the Jin Mansion.

And the previous clone naturally went directly to Li Yan's original body, after all, he had a huge amount of money hidden in his body.

"Everyone is dead, hurry up and sound the alarm."

At this time, a group of guards who were also patrolling nearby finally arrived.

They hurried here because they heard the captain's shout.

Unfortunately, the usual safety made them think it was not a big deal, so they did not rush all the way, which led to their late arrival.

A red firework exploded in the outer mansion.

Instantly, the originally silent outer mansion gradually woke up from its deep sleep.

"What happened?"

Li Yan walked out of the room with disheveled clothes.

It seemed that the noise outside woke him up from his sleep, so he opened the door without even putting on his clothes.

"I heard that an assassin broke into the mansion, and several teams of patrolling guards were killed!"

A man who lived next door to Li Yan suddenly came to Li Yan at this time.

He, like Li Yan, was also a subordinate of Hao Huo.

"How do you know so clearly?"

Li Yan asked with a strange look on his face. He didn't remember that he had killed several teams of guards, but only one team.

"I woke up earlier than you. I learned all this from the conversations between the stewards."

"By the way, why am I telling you this? Hurry up. Steward Hao asked me to call you to gather."

"Okay, will you come with me?"

"No, go to Steward Hao by yourself. I still have to call other people!"

So, Li Yan tidied his clothes and ran to Steward Hao.

"Bu Hui, you're here."

"Yes, Steward Hao, I just got up and ran into Song Fei. He asked me to come to you."

"He told me that an assassin ran into our house and killed a lot of people. Is that right?"

Li Yan asked in confusion.

Hao Huo is a relatively young steward, much younger than the other two stewards present, and he is also more kind, so Li Yan will ask directly if he doesn't understand anything.

"It's almost the same. It's just that people only killed one team of people. I think Song Fei must have told you that he killed several teams of people!"

Li Yan nodded repeatedly.

"This kid just likes to brag. Sooner or later, he will be ruined by this mouth."

Hao Huo shook his head helplessly.

Soon, all five teams belonging to Hao Huo arrived, and the other two management teams also arrived.

The reason why Li Yan and others were asked to gather was to let them regulate the messy firewood room.

Someone will come to check and question them later. If it is a mess, those people will be in a bad mood.

Not only will the servants in the firewood room be unlucky, but the managers will also be punished.

Nearly twenty people are more than enough to maintain order for less than three hundred people.

Not long after, nearly three hundred people stood neatly in the open space of the firewood room, waiting for the inspectors to come.

This wait was a bit long, and many people's heads began to fluctuate.

After all, they were all awakened from their sleep, and it was still night, and it was not a short distance from dawn, so it was inevitable that they would be sleepy.

Finally, a group of people from the [Punishment Hall] came.

Li Yan was still very impressed with this group of people. After all, when he first met them, their purpose was to catch him.

And this time, their purpose was the same, but they didn't know it.

"Two major events happened tonight. One is that an assassin broke in and killed a team of guards in our mansion."

"Another thing is that Lord Jin Ya's house was robbed. We suspect that it was done by the same group of people."

"The assassin may have killed people to cover the thief's escape."

"At present, we don't know whether the group of thieves has escaped from the mansion, so the higher-ups require us to search every corner thoroughly."

"Also, the thief may be an insider, so I have to check if there are any missing people here. Have you found your companions suspicious tonight?"

"Once you provide key clues, whether you are a steward or a servant, you will be promoted one level on the spot and rewarded 100 taels."

When these people came, they said the above series of words with a serious expression.

Then, more than ten of them were divided into two groups, one group checked all the corners of the firewood room, and the other group was responsible for interrogating Li Yan's group of servants one by one.

However, this familiar scene reminded Li Yan of what they did when the two stewards Song and Qian lost money before.

Of course, the difference is that Li Yan was in line for interrogation, but now he is maintaining order and then interrogating at the end.

And the other party's tone was better than last time.

In the end, they worked for most of the night and still did not find any useful clues.

Of course, more than ten suspects were arrested, all of whom were reported by others and were considered suspicious.

This time Li Yan lived alone and no one accused him.

"Bang", a vase was smashed to pieces, and this person was obviously very angry, and a bloody energy in his hand was mobilized involuntarily.

When the vase was broken, it also smashed a big hole in the brick and stone floor.

"All my wealth, all my savings over the years are gone, damn thief, if I catch you, I will definitely tear you into pieces."

Jin Ya's face was bloodshot, and his eyes were full of bloodshot.

This was a manifestation of extreme anger.

"When can you find that thief?"

As he said, Jin Ya looked at a third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall] with a ferocious look.

The steward was so scared that he kept wiping his cold sweat.

If other second-class stewards dared to do this to him, the third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall], he would make them pay.

However, the person in front of him at this time was Jin Ya, a branch of the Jin family.

"It's like this, Lord Jin Ya, we suspect that this thief is in the same group as the assassin who killed a team of patrol guards tonight."

"As long as we can find the assassin, we can find the thief by following the clues."

The third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall] explained carefully.

"Have you found the assassin?"

"Not yet."

"No, no, you are fooling me, right?"

Although Jin Ya was overwhelmed by anger, his IQ did not decrease.

"I am definitely not fooling you, sir. We have no clue about the thief who stole your things. We can't find him even if we want to."

"On the contrary, the assassin who killed people left more clues and is relatively easier to find."

The third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall] explained hurriedly.

"You said clues, then tell me the clues you know."

"Okay, sir, we now have two clues about the assassin."

The third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall] replied respectfully.

"One is that this assassin is likely to be from our Jin Mansion, because the dead guards were killed head-on, with only a knife mark on the neck, but no signs of fighting on their bodies."

"And the captain of the dead guard team had a loud warning before his death, but the sound became smaller afterwards, obviously seeing someone he knew."

"So, we infer that the assassin's cultivation is at least above the blood exchange realm, is good at swordsmanship, and holds a position above steward in the mansion."

"Another one was provided by one of the guards who supported the earliest. This clue is too intrusive, I don't know whether I should say it."

Speaking of this, the third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall] hesitated.

"If you have anything to say, please speak up."

Jin Ya shouted impatiently.

"The man said that he was born with sensitive ears, so he heard the name of the captain of the guard who was killed, Jin Quan, through the sound of the wind that day."

Hearing this, Jin Ya's pupils shrank.

At this time, his original anger disappeared strangely, and he became calm instead.

This made the third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall] who thought Jin Ya would be even more furious feel a little uncomfortable. He felt that Jin Ya seemed even more terrifying at this time.

"Okay, I know."

In the end, Jin Ya didn't say anything else, just said this.

Then, he walked out, and the direction seemed to be the direction of the inner palace.

"By the way, clean up the two bodies in my room."

After saying that, he disappeared.

"Damn, what's the matter? You actually want me, a third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall], to clean up your bodies."

"If it weren't for your surname Jin, I would have caught you and taught you a lesson in the [Punishment Hall]."

The third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall] spit in the direction where Jin Ya left, and finally went to collect the bodies helplessly.

"Since I helped you collect the bodies, then I will accept your compensation."

Looking at the two female corpses with their heads twisted off on the bed, the third-class steward of the [Punishment Hall] said with a smile.
