Seven-star Sword Master
Chapter 224 Assassination
"Pfft!"
The sword pierced through Yang Fan's head.
"go!"
When the man in black saw that Yang Fan, the main target of this trip, was dead, he left decisively without stopping.
If they stayed any longer, not only would they not be able to get rid of Shen Changming, but they would also be in danger of both of them dying here.
After being kicked away by the man in black, Shen Changming quickly took out a pill from his storage bag and swallowed it.
He secretly used the magic power in his body to refine the medicinal power, and at the same time witnessed the killing of Yang Fan with his own eyes. Only after the two men in black disappeared from his sight did Shen Changming secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
After he used the five lightning whips, most of the magic power in his body had been consumed.
If the two men in black really rushed up to attack him regardless of their own injuries, he would probably be in great danger today.
He took out a communication talisman and reported to Fanyang County how he was injured and how Yang Fan died.
At the end, he added, "I am seriously injured now and need to return to Ningtai Township to recuperate. I will go back in two days."
After sending out the communication talisman, Shen Changming walked to Yang Fan, drew out his sword, and burned the body to ashes with a torch. Then he returned to Ningtai Township.
……
Ningtai Township Inspection Division;
Lu Feipeng was in a very bad state today, and felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
The reason, of course, was that he was pulled over by Eunuch Xu early in the morning and discussed with him in front of him how to cut off his little Jiji!
Just imagine if anyone came here and said they wanted to cut your little Jiji, it would be strange if you were happy!
Just as I returned to the study and was about to meditate, Fatty Zhou, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, came to my door.
"Hey, Brother Zhou, why are you here?"
Although Lu Feipeng is now the Pingnan Envoy of Ningtai Township, he did not put on airs at all when he welcomed Fatty Zhou into the room.
How could Fatty Zhou have received such treatment? Besides, the moment Lu Feipeng was promoted to the envoy of Pingnan, their status had already been worlds apart.
Fatty Zhou looked flattered and said quickly, "I dare not, I dare not."
After welcoming Fatty Zhou into the room, Lu Feipeng looked at Fatty Zhou and asked:
"Brother Zhou, what brings you here?"
"That's right, Lord Lu. As you know, I was with Lord Tian before."
"Ah."
Lu Feipeng nodded, he knew about this matter.
"Sir, in that case, I will not beat around the bush and speak directly. Just now, I suddenly received a message from Fanyang County. The message was sent by Sir Hu's butler."
"Master Hu Changsong?"
Hearing this, Lu Feipeng asked; because as far as he knew, the Anxi envoy of Fanyang County was surnamed Hu, and his name was Hu Changsong, and this person seemed to be from a noble family.
Combined with what Fatty Zhou had said before, Lu Feipeng guessed it immediately.
Fatty Zhou nodded and said, "Yes, sir."
Lu Feipeng frowned. He had no dealings with the other party, not to mention dealings, not even any intersections. So why did he come to him?
Lu Feipeng didn't think he had any special abilities that the other party would appreciate.
No, that's not right!
Thinking of this, Lu Feipeng suddenly remembered what Eunuch Xu had discussed with him early in the morning about cutting off his little Jiji.
Could it be?
Thinking of this, a very bizarre idea popped up in Lu Feipeng's mind.
"Brother Zhou, are you here to win me over as well?"
Unable to figure it out, Lu Feipeng asked casually.
"Forehead!"
This made Fatty Zhou, who had already prepared his next words, look stunned. He froze in place, not knowing how to say the next words.
Ok?
It seemed that he noticed the word "also" in Lu Feipeng's words. Could it be that there were others who were also trying to win over Lu Feipeng?
Thinking of this, Fatty Zhou nodded directly:
"Yes, is there anyone who came to see you before me?"
When Lu Feipeng thought of the scene where Eunuch Xu was going to cut his little Jiji, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"Yes, someone found me before you and asked me to join them."
Fatty Zhou thought that the only ones who tried to win over Lu Feipeng before him were the two sects or the inspection department's headquarters.
But he could never have imagined that the one who first tried to win over Lu Feipeng would be Eunuch Xu...
"Sir, if that's the case, then I'll be frank with you. I'm telling you the truth. Sir Hu wants to invite you to join the noble family.
As long as you nod, the noble family will be your loyal shield in terms of resources, gold and silver treasures, Taoist companions and career, and will provide you with assistance for free.
You can also set up your own family. If you encounter problems in your cultivation or life in the future, the family may not solve all your problems, but they can still give you advice. "
In fact, when Lu Feipeng learned about Fatty Zhou's purpose, he had already thought of a problem.
That means maybe it's time for me to join a faction. Otherwise, no one will come to invite me one after another.
Thinking about it carefully, he has accumulated a lot of merits during this period of time, especially the incident of catching the members of the Blood Red Alliance in Beishan Village, which made his name appear frequently in the eyes of the people above.
According to Liu Xiangyang, this was the first time that the Inspection Department and even Da Qi had captured a member of the Blood Red Alliance, and it was also the only time so far.
Moreover, before this, Da Qi didn't even know the existence of such organizations, so that the name of Lu Feipeng, the Pingnan envoy of Ningtai Township, frequently appeared in the sight of high-level officials.
If it were someone else with such a contribution, he would have been promoted long ago, but because of his lack of cultivation and background, he has been staying here in obscurity.
Lu Feipeng just replied to Fatty Zhou that he would consider it, and then the two chatted for a while until Ma Jinbao arrived, and Fatty Zhou left.
"What's wrong, Brother Ma?"
Lu Feipeng sent Fatty Zhou away and was about to welcome Ma Jinbao into the room, but Ma Jinbao raised his hand to indicate that he did not want to go in.
"It is like this, Lord Lu. Lord Liu asked me to invite you over."
"Oh?"
Thinking of Fatty Zhou who had left earlier, Lu Feipeng roughly guessed Liu Xiangyang's intention of looking for him.
"Okay, Brother Ma, let's go together."
"When will Brother Ma come to my Sanjia Village?"
Ma Jinbao smiled and said:
“I don’t always have time, and because of my special status, I can’t go out casually.
But if some adult goes to Sanjia Village someday, I might go with him;
Oh, by the way, if Lord Lu ever goes back, I can go with him."
Lu Feipeng also understood what Ma Jinbao meant. As the chief steward of the Inspection Department, he knew most of the secrets within the Inspection Department.
If anything happened to him, many secrets of the Inspection Department might be leaked, so the Inspection Department could not let Ma Jinbao go out at will.
When Liu Xiangyang saw Lu Feipeng coming, he put down the jade slip in his hand and greeted him:
"Here? Sit down."
After Lu Feipeng sat down, Ma Jinbao bowed to the two of them and said that he had something else to do and took his leave first.
This time, Liu Xiangyang rarely discussed official business with Lu Feipeng, but instead personally poured a cup of tea for Lu Feipeng.
"I think Lord Lu has already guessed why I came to see you."
Lu Feipeng nodded and said, "I guessed a little."
"Okay, in that case, I won't beat around the bush, there are still many things to deal with later.
That's right, Mr. Lu, I would like to invite you to join our Inspection Department.
Maybe we don't have as much resources as other factions, and we are not as good as other forces in terms of money and other aspects;
However, our people have one advantage that other forces do not have, and that is that we report directly to the Inspection Department and are not interfered with by external factors.
The most important point is that we are the ones who truly care about the people and have made it our mission to eliminate evil spirits!"
Liu Xiangyang said a lot in one breath. He told Lu Feipeng all his shortcomings and strengths one by one.
Even though Liu Xiangyang personally invited him, Lu Feipeng did not respond immediately; instead, he said vaguely:
"Master Liu, let me think about it."
Liu Xiangyang did not force it. He was not the kind of person who would force others to do things.
Afterwards, the two chatted about other things.
But at this moment, Liu Xiangyang, who was talking to Lu Feipeng about the Blood Red Alliance, looked strange.
Lu Feipeng noticed this change and asked:
"What's wrong with Master Liu? Did something happen?"
Liu Xiangyang shook his head and said, "Nothing."
After saying that, he took out a communication talisman, but when he saw the talisman, his expression suddenly became solemn.
Because the sub-talisman corresponding to this communication talisman is Shen Changming.
I would like to add something that was not clearly stated before. The name of the communication symbol is the letter communication symbol. The sub-communication symbol is responsible for transmitting messages, while the mother communication symbol is responsible for receiving messages.
Shen Changming had just left not long ago, why would he send him a message at this time?
Could something have happened?
Thinking of this, Liu Xiangyang did not shy away from the fact that Lu Feipeng was present. He opened the mother communication talisman in front of Lu Feipeng and explained:
"It's Lord Shen."
However, after the two saw the contents on the communication talisman, they were all shocked.
"How is it possible? With Lord Shen's cultivation at the second level of the Nascent Soul, how could he allow someone to kill Yang Fan and be seriously injured himself?"
The extremely solemn expressions on their faces showed the seriousness of the matter.
Because the message sent by Shen Changming said: We encountered an ambush on the road, Yang Fan is dead, and I am also seriously injured. Now the clues are cut off, so we must keep a close eye on the other member of the Blood Red Alliance.
Seeing this, both of them seemed to realize the seriousness of the situation.
"Let's go check out the cell."
After saying that, the two of them walked quickly towards the cell.
But when they arrived at the cell, it was too late. There were already several bodies lying in the cell where Ding Zhichang was imprisoned, and one of them was Ding Zhichang's.
"Somebody come!"
A loud shout came from the cell. The voice was so loud that even Ma Jinbao, who was handling official business in the study, heard it.
Hua Hua Hua...
Soon, a bailiff who was in charge of guarding the prison came running in.
"My Lord, what happened?"
