Bishop's Retirement

It was deathly quiet.

On the Drum Tower.

A man dressed in black stood proudly holding a long sword.

He was overlooking the silent capital in front of him.

This person has long hair like snow, scattered behind his head.

There was a mask of pure gold over his face.

This mask is a human face.

It looks like a smile but not a smile, which is quite weird.

sand!

At this moment, a soft sound came.

Then a figure appeared directly behind him.

"you are late……"

Hearing the sound behind him, the man said lightly: "It's a full incense stick late..."

"Sir, forgive me!"

Hearing the masked man's words, the figure hastily said, "The capital is under martial law after the robbery incident..."

"I avoided officers and soldiers all the way..."

"So there was a delay..."

"okay……"

Before the figure could finish speaking, the masked man said, "Stop talking nonsense..."

"How is your order going?"

"The rumors that Bai Mingyu was buried in the East China Sea have all spread?"

"Go back to your lord!"

Hearing this, the figure opened his mouth and said, "Something went wrong..."

"Accident?"

There was a hint of doubt in the masked man's voice: "What accident?"

"It's strange to say..."

Seeing the masked man asking a question, the figure hastily responded: "Today, I will go to Yufeng Tower to spread rumors according to my lord's order..."

"But before I make a move..."

"Someone was one step ahead of me and spread rumors that Bai Mingyu was buried in the East China Sea!"

!!!

As soon as these words came out, the masked man froze.

He suddenly turned around and looked at the figure in front of him, and said, "What did you say?"

"Someone spread rumors before you?!"

Between the words, his voice was full of disbelief.

"Yes!"

The figure nodded: "Not only that..."

"Bai Yulin, Bai Mingyu's son, is also in Yufeng Building today..."

"The person who spread the rumors was subdued by him as soon as he spoke..."

"Just as Bai Yulin was questioning the person behind the rumors..."

"But suddenly someone shot to silence..."

"I saw that the scene was too chaotic, so I didn't do anything, and quietly retreated..."

In words, he described the things in the teahouse

Heard the cause and effect of this matter.

There was a hint of doubt in the eyes of the masked man.

At this time, he couldn't think of it at all.

Except myself.

Who else would spread rumors that Bai Mingyu was buried in the East China Sea.

"Do you know who the person who silenced him came from?"

Thinking of this, the masked man asked.

At this moment he wants to know.

Besides myself, who else would spread such a thing.

"do not know……"

Hearing this, the figure shook his head: "But I just went to the morgue in the Yamen..."

"Found this from the corpse..."

As he spoke, he took out a wooden box from his body and handed it to the masked man.

After taking the wooden box, the man opened it.

But I saw a steel needle as slender as a hair lying in it.

"Shadowless Magic Needle..."

Looking at the Shadowless Needle in his hand, the masked man whispered, "Interesting..."

"Shadowless God Needle?"

Hearing this, the figure on the side asked.

"It's a rare hidden weapon..."

The masked man nodded: "This needle is made of stainless steel mixed with gold, as thin as a hair, but heavier than a normal flying needle..."

"With sufficient internal force, the speed is fast and ruthless..."

"It's enough to kill people invisible..."

"This kind of hidden weapon is expensive to make, and it's not affordable for ordinary quacks..."

"What's more, it's also fed with poison..."

As he spoke, the masked man shook his palm slightly.

There is a faint blue light on the needle...

"Could it be the Tang Sect?"

Seeing this scene, the figure on the side spoke.

"no……"

The masked man shook his head: "The Tang Sect in Central Shu has always been neutral and never fights with others..."

"Although they raise poisonous substances, they don't easily hurt people..."

"Furthermore..."

"The Tang Sect is good at ingenuity, including hidden weapons. The most common flying fish darts are enough to pierce gold with their shots..."

"There is no need to use such a luxurious hidden weapon..."

"This is obviously a method used by someone who is inconvenient to expose their martial arts!"

At this point, the masked man's voice paused.

As if thinking about something.

"My subordinates will go to the various workshops in the city tomorrow to see who can make such a hidden weapon!"

At this time, the figure on the side spoke.

"No!"

Hearing this, the man with the mask said: "That person killed people in public, and the government will definitely intervene in it..."

"In addition to the martial law in the capital..."

"Bringing this thing to the streets to inquire, isn't it the same as telling others about our existence?"

"Not to mention, there is Bai Yulin among them!"

"He must have the same idea as you..."

"If he finds it, the consequences will be disastrous!"

At this point, the masked man's voice became a little more dignified.

"My lord, then we should..."

Hearing this, the figure asked.

"Simple……"

The masked man said calmly: "Currently the capital is under martial law. If such a murder case occurs, the arrester will definitely try to solve it..."

"Just spread out your hands and keep up with these headhunters..."

"Everything you want to know, they will ask you clearly!"

!!!

As soon as these words came out, the figure couldn't help being startled.

Immediately, he looked at the masked man in front of him and said, "My lord is brilliant!"

"Go!"

Hearing this, the mask waved his hand.

"Yes!"

As soon as these words came out, the figure disappeared instantly.

"Someone is actually spreading rumors about Bai Mingyu's death..."

After the figure left, the masked man said quietly, "It's really interesting!"

……

"Someone is spreading rumors about my father's death in the teahouse!?"

In the White House, Bai Luhan spoke.

Shock was written all over his face.

She didn't expect it.

It's only been a few days since the news came out, and such rumors have already flowed out in the Jianghu.

"Ok!"

Hearing this, Bai Yulin nodded: "It's obvious that someone is deliberately spreading this behind the scenes to achieve an ulterior secret!"

"As long as we find the person who used the steel needle, we will know who is behind it!"

While speaking, he placed the steel needle taken from the corpse in front of everyone.

"It's not that simple!?"

At this time, Bai Luhan said, "Tomorrow I will go to the blacksmith shop to ask..."

"Look at the origin of this steel needle!"

"You save it!"

Hearing Bai Luhan's words, Wang Ye said, "Go to the blacksmith shop to inquire..."
