"Did something happen just now? I don't remember, I just remember that I made an agreement with my brother."

"Yeah." Looking at Wu Zhao like this, Xue Qianye felt like he was getting old for a moment.

Are all the little girls now so powerful?

Chapter 6 Nao Shui

Naoshui, a tributary of Luoshui, Naoshui City is a big city located on the edge of Naoshui, where the water transport is developed and prosperity comes from it.Although the waterways here do not extend in all directions, they are connected in many directions. The most important thing is that there is no direct boat to the capital of God.

That's right, no boat is the most important thing.Because the boats here will only stop outside Shendu at most, so when it comes to Naoshui, people will not think of Shendu at the first time.And this was exactly what Xue Qianye needed.

The waterways in the city are crisscrossed, stone bridges are lined up, and many houses are built along the water. Walking into this land, Xue Qianye can't help but think of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.It's just that compared to the places I've been to before, there is less tranquility here.

On the contrary, because of the existence of the waterway, it is very lively.

Walking through the street to the pier, Xue Qianye asked about the nearest boat to Shendu. The nearest passenger boat can reach Yukou, but it will take three days to leave.

"Three days?" Xue Qianye murmured and began to think.

Judging from the current situation, they should go back as soon as possible.The sooner you go to the capital of God, the safer you will be.But the question is how fast.Moreover, it is not surprising that the other party is also thinking about the same problem.

Well, judging from this time, waiting is not a bad thing.If the emperor could send Wu Zhao, a familiar general, to look for them, it might not be a good choice to wait here for them to come.The killers should now feel that we will desperately rush to the gods, and if we wait, there may be unexpected effects.

"Brother, let me tell you the truth. These two days are the annual Fengshui Festival in the city. Only boats from other places come in, and no boats from the city will go out. Wait until the third day everyone We will sail together." Seeing that Xue Qianye was still thinking, the man in his 30s continued.

He is the captain of the ship, usually transporting guests, and occasionally part-time deliveries and the like.This 30-year-old man is only at the human level, and even at the human level, he is not very good.He practiced martial arts to work, not to fight.

"Oh! So I will have more choices." Hearing this, Xue Qianye smiled and deliberately revealed a blind spot.

"This..., my brother is really sharp. Well, I want to make you my friend. The deposit is only ten coins, so it's okay for the head office." The captain named Hu Jin looked embarrassed, and finally decided to lower the price.

He also understood that Xue Qianye was right.On that day, many people went out of the city together, and Xue Qianye was not the only one who chose.He doesn't want to see the money he got fly away now, so he can only offer high-quality conditions.

"Here is twenty coins, and there will be another twenty coins after that." While speaking, Xue Qianye took out a bunch of small change.

"..."

Just when Hu Jin thought he had met the big head of complaints, Xue Qianye continued.

"I want a separate cabin with my sister."

"The boat room needs to be at least fifty... Okay, I'm afraid of you. Brother, I see that you are also a scholar. It's only ten essays, so what?" Hu Jin originally wanted to say something, but when he saw Xue Qianye Change your mouth immediately after smiling.

"It's true that I'm a scholar, but do you think I look like a rich man? Rich people have chartered a boat directly. Who would come here to talk to you about the value. We are going to seek refuge with relatives this time, and at most later Take care of your business when you come back."

"Okay, then it's settled."

After getting the pass, Xue Qianye left the pier with Wu Zhao.They walked into the city.Sure enough, I saw the atmosphere of many shows along the way, but I have been busy on the road before and haven't found it yet.

While walking, Xue Qianye noticed Wu Zhao's curious eyes.Thinking about it carefully, it might be the first time for her to come to this kind of place.Seeing her staring blankly at some stalls selling pancakes, Xue Qianye directly bought a copy for her.

"The next time you want something, you can tell me directly." Smiling, Xue Qianye handed the paper-wrapped snack to Wu Zhao.

"But... I understand, thank you brother." Wu Zhao hesitated for a moment, then smiled happily.

However, the smile didn't last long.Because watching and eating are completely different types, many things may look good when you look at them, but they are not the same thing at all when you actually eat them.

"What's wrong?" Xue Qianye looked at her curiously.

"I was cheated. It's not as good as the food made by my brother. I don't want it anymore." Wu Zhao frowned, and handed back the half-eaten cake in his hand.

"Hey, you!" Xue Qianye took a bite of the cake in her hand, although it was not excellent, it was not bad, otherwise this small stall might not be there at all.But thinking about Wu Zhao's previous life, Xue Qianye didn't find it strange.

Xue Qianye didn't have too many requirements for food, so he ate it all in one sitting.While Xue Qianye was eating, probably because of too many people, Wu Zhao was hit.Originally, we were dealing with festivals now, so it was okay to be bumped into the crowd.But Wu Zhao quickly discovered something was wrong.

Because the small pocket she was carrying around her was gone, it was the little thing that Xue Qianye bought her just now.There are also the change I just got back from eating and the remaining soul-killing needle in it.

"elder brother!"

Wu Zhao lifted the remaining thread in his hand, and Xue Qianye instantly understood what happened.

"Well, the purse is missing? That brat just now."

How should I put it, this is the first time Xue Qianye has encountered such a thing as a thief bag in his two lives.Let alone this life, in the previous life when mobile phones could replace everything, the profession of thief stealing wallets has long been 'unemployed'.

After all, in those days, there was no money in the wallet.Many don't even have wallets.A mobile phone is enough.In such an environment, Xue Qianye subconsciously didn't expect such a thing to happen here, so she was on guard.

But if you think about it carefully, in this day and age, although thieves are not common, they are not uncommon either.Especially during this kind of festival, they will come out for activities on a large scale.

"Follow me!" Xue Qianye pulled Wu Zhao directly to run in the direction where the kid disappeared just now.

It didn't take long for them to come to a dark residential area, which was more suitable as a slum than a residential area, and it was full of signs of dilapidation.

Xue Qianye who came here happened to see the scene in front of him.

Not far away, an adult man was slapping a little boy to the ground.The little boy fell to the ground, covering his face, spitting out a trace of blood from his mouth.

"Trash! You can only steal so much money during the holidays in these two days. I have raised you for so long, sir." The man was still angry when he said this, and he stepped on the little boy's face and continued.

"You all forgot what I said! Huh? Go find a rich man to steal, don't find those poor people who don't have money."

"but……"

The little boy was about to say something, but was immediately beaten by the man.

"How dare you talk back!"

Chapter 7 That Year...

The child in front of him was captured by a man, and this is not the only child under his command.He trained these children to be thieves to make money for him, and it has nothing to do with him that these children were sent to death when they were caught.

Originally, these two days were festivals, and they should be his harvest days. Before that, he was expecting these little ghosts to bring him money so that he could go to Honghuanyuan to find his old friend and have a good time.But the dozen or so in front of me are simply not enough.

All the other children in front of them have been dispatched, leaving only this one.Just when he was about to vent and tell him to go back to work, Xue Qianye not far from the street spoke.

"Did you instigate it. Let him steal my purse."

"Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that you took something that doesn't belong to you. If you return it now, I can treat it as if nothing happened." During the speech, Xue Qianye pointed at the other party's hand small bag.

On the way here just now, Wu Zhao's nervous expression made Xue Qianye understand that there might be more than just change in the bag.

"If you say it's yours, it's yours, and I'll say it's mine. Do you know who I am, boy? You don't even ask. I'm a young master called [Black Jiao] in Naoshui City. Lei, you have nothing to do here, get out as soon as possible." Yu Lei tossed the money bag up and down in his hand.He had just looked at the purse and found that there were only a dozen copper coins and a ball of cloth.

Seeing this, he subconsciously thought that there was only such a little money, and he was not interested in seeing what Bree had.However, even if he saw what was inside, he would probably only think it was three ordinary needles, not anything else.After all, it is impossible for a bastard like him to know what the soul-killing needle is.

Seeing the funny face of this guy in front of him, Xue Qianye was a little speechless.

"I changed my mind."

Sure enough, some people can't give them a good face.

"You're smart. If you change your mind..."

"If you kneel down and beg me right now, and send the things back, I can forgive your mistake just now."

The moment Xue Qianye finished speaking, Yu Lei broke out in anger.

"Boy, you are courting death!"

At this time, Yu Lei had a layer of thin air, although he looked like a Lianjiazi, he was completely incomparable with Shi Qiu before.If Shi Qiu's breath is like a strong wind, this guy's breath is like that of a disabled person, intermittent, with a feeling that it may disappear at any time.

But that's it, this guy made a full posture, and then rushed towards Xue Qianye.

And then…, then there is no then.

Crackling...

"Master! Master, it's all my fault, please forgive me." While speaking, Yu Lei lay on the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face, begging Xue Qianye for mercy.His appearance was the complete opposite of his previous arrogance.

And the kid next to him had already gone somewhere.Xue Qianye picked up the money bag and opened it, and found the cloth ball inside.At this time, Xue Qianye also understood the reason why Wu Zhao was worried, and it was because of this thing.

"Don't lose it next time." Xue Qianye put the purse back into Wu Zhao's hands.

"Well, thank you brother."

Just as Xue Qianye was thinking about how to deal with the matter in front of her more appropriately, several male figures stepped out of the darkness not far away.The leader was a middle-aged man with a scar.

"Boy, who are you? Dare to come here to make trouble, don't you know that this place is under the cover of me, Zhao Si?"

The moment the man with the scar appeared, someone on the ground immediately changed his face, and he quickly lay down at Zhao Si's feet and began to look for a backer.

"You did a good job, I will spare you today." Yu Lei first said, looking at the little boy not far behind the man with the scar.Afterwards, he quickly started to give himself a sense of presence and said.

"Boss Zhao, that's him. He's the expert hired by the Li family. I've already investigated what you asked me to investigate. Please let me join the Floating Water Club. I will definitely..."

However, Yu Lei's initiative to show his favor was kicked away by Zhao Si.

"Get out! The master of the Li family has arrived long ago, and he is still an old man. Do you think I am blind?"

Xue Qianye secretly observed the kick just now, and was relieved to find that the opponent's strength was still within his control range.Suddenly he felt that he was being too careful. If any random gangster was a master, then the previous assassins were probably not of that scale.

"I..." Yu Lei was beaten for no reason, and looked at Zhao Si very aggrieved.

Zhao Si didn't pay attention to this guy's gaze, but looked at Xue Qianye.After discovering that Xue Qianye's aura on the surface was slightly lower than his own, and he had several younger brothers beside him, he was relieved.

"Boy, although this guy is a bastard, he is my subordinate anyway. If you hit him, you are hitting me in the face."

Although it looks very backbone on the surface, if the previous Shi Qiu stood here, most of these guys would have knelt down and called Dad.

"It seems that your face is not very valuable." Xue Qianye responded with a smile.

Regardless of strength, experience, or even spirit, these guys are far from the previous Shi Qiu, and there is a feeling that mud can't support the wall.

"Yes! I'll give you a chance now to join our Floating Water Club. I'll write off what happened just now." Zhao Si thought for a while and made a condition.

At present, they are preparing to fight with another big gang in the city, the Jingshuihui, and their boss is sending people to look for combat power.As a hall master, after Zhao Si saw Xue Qianye's strength, he couldn't help but want to lure him into the gang.

"What if I refuse?"

"You'd better not refuse, because, in this land, dead people are very normal. In this dark corner, human life is never valuable, and the government will not care about it." Persuasion failed, Zhao Si began to threaten .

"yes."

"You can think about it."

"Don't think about it. What you said just reminded me. Since what happened here can't be seen, it will be easy to handle." During the words, a smile appeared on Xue Qianye's face.

At the same time, Wu Zhao thoughtfully let go of Xue Qianye and took a few steps back.

"Toast, don't eat fine wine! If we are not in a hurry to hire people now, you think a kid who has just entered the prefecture level can get into my eyes. Go to me and kill him." Seeing that the negotiation broke down, Zhao Si waved his hand The signal for the siege was given.

This is the shadow of the city, there are dead people appearing every day, sometimes it may be for a penny, sometimes it may be for a copper plate, or even a bowl of water, and unless the person who died here is a big person, there will be no one at all Tube.This is Zhao Si's self-confidence.

However, the moment the crowd rushed up, several sword lights flashed in the air.

"Extreme Step Kill Silence."

The light of the knife passed by, and with the sound of people screaming, blood spurted into the air instantly.When Xue Qianye's figure passed through the crowd, the people behind him had already spurted blood to death.

In the blink of an eye, Xue Qianye had arrived at Zhao Si's eyes. Zhao Si had never thought that his subordinates would die so quickly. After a moment of hesitation, he had already lost the opportunity.The short knife in Xue Qianye's hand continued to swing, and the pace of her footsteps was tightening step by step.

As he retreated step by step, Zhao Si was slowly walking towards death.Xue Qianye exerted force under his feet, and a crack appeared on the ground. When he got up and leaped, the slash in the air was the most threatening death.

"Stepping Kill · Broken Dreams."

Chapter 8 Environmental Trends

Zhao Si's figure fell slowly, and the flow of blood gradually covered up the sharp knife mark on the ground.In less than a quarter of an hour, there were only his corpses all over the floor, and the only living person was the child who had just reported.

Xue Qianye looked at the frightened child in front of him, with a very indifferent expression.He was thinking about how to deal with the little ghost in front of him, but before him, a sword light slashed across the other's neck, and the kid fell down with the last look of fear in his eyes.

And the person holding that sword was Wu Zhao.

"Brother is too soft-hearted. If he hadn't reported the letter just now, maybe he could just teach that person a lesson, but in the end, things turned out like this." Wu Zhao put down his sword, wiped the blood from his hand, and smiled at Xue Xue. Qianye said.

There was nothing wrong with her words.In fact, if it wasn't for the guy who came after this kid, maybe the guy at the beginning might have survived.After all, at that time, I didn't think about killing him for a dozen coins.What really made me want to kill was afterward.

"I just..." Thinking of this, Xue Qianye didn't know what to say.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that I am not mature enough.This is no longer the original world. In this world, old people, children, and women may all be deadly 'killers'.Boring sympathy will only kill you.

"I know that my brother may still feel that he is forced by life, so he has compassion. But, no, I have been paying attention to him just now. If he grows up, he will only become the second scum in the end. He will definitely attack other children, that's right, because he has learned these ways of life, and he can only do these things. Since my brother can't do it, then let me do it." Wu Zhao still said with a smile on his face own opinion.

She had been focusing on the little ghost of the same age before, but it was just like this, she knew that the person in front of her was hopeless.Most people who are raised by snakes will eventually become snakes and continue to repeat this cycle.

Looking at the younger sister in front of her, Xue Qianye felt for the first time that maybe she was the innocent person.Thinking of this, he said with a smile.

"I'm sorry, because I'm not mature enough, but I ended up with blood on your hands."

"It's all right, brother. Because I'm willing."

After erasing his traces, Xue Qianye left here peacefully with Wu Zhao.I didn't bother with the little episode that happened here.

Back in the inn room, Xue Qianye continued to practice.After eating, when he was sorting out his martial arts, Wu Zhao's killing move just now flashed in his mind.Opening his eyes, Wu Zhao was bored looking at the street outside the window.

After feeling Xue Qianye's gaze, she turned her head to look at Xue Qianye.
