The Magus Era

Chapter 226: Bad luck

Views:

Ying Yunpeng hurriedly led people to the East Market of Tokaichi.

The stream is gurgling, green and winding. In the green mountains and water, large wooden buildings and stone houses are spread out at random. This is the gold-selling cave in Tokaichi. There are the most beautiful women from all ethnic groups, as well as the strongest wine from all over the world.

Of course, there are also various other things here, both overtly and covertly, that stimulate people's primitive impulses and make people squander money and energy. The small East Market accounts for 30% of the Toka Market's annual profits.

At the foot of a green hill, in a shallow drainage ditch, Dafeng Ling was lying coldly at the bottom of the ditch with a stiff and weird smile. His body was cold, and there was no movement of energy and blood in his body. He was already dead.

Several gray-haired old shamans were standing by the drainage channel. Various insects and beasts with keen senses of smell were running around them, looking for any clues that the murderer might have left behind. There were also several great witches who were proficient in the art of tracking and hunting, carefully patrolling the water channels to find out whether Da Feng Ling died of natural causes or was assassinated by others.

"Hey, here's Da Feng Ling. The most outstanding archer of the younger generation in the Da Feng Department."

"Die like this? The elders of the Gale Department must be very sad and have a headache."

"This guy is usually extremely arrogant and domineering. I don't know what happened in the past two days. He just focused on getting drunk in Dongshi."

"Is it possible that his woman ran away with another man? Hehe, and then suddenly couldn't figure it out, so he ended it by himself?"

Thousands of people stood far and near, all looking here with strange smiles. These are all guests from the East Market. They come from the Four Wastelands, as well as wealthy people from the Middle Continent. They are not afraid of the power of the Tokago Kingdom, and they are all excitedly gesticulating towards the canal.

Pusaka is a peaceful place. It is the core of the rule of the human tribal alliance. It has many experts and is heavily guarded. It is difficult to find any unclear human life case on weekdays. And Tokaichi is the territory of Tokaichi. Everyone in the world knows that the archers of Tokaichi are the most discerning. It is almost impossible to sneak into Tokaichi without their eyes and ears.

Dafeng Ling is also a well-known master among the younger generation of the Toka Kingdom. He has great momentum in Pusaka. In the past, he has led many young people from the Toka Kingdom and people from other tribes to break out into large and small conflicts.

Such a young and promising Junyan died suddenly in a small drainage channel with water no more than a foot deep. This was undoubtedly a heavy slap on the face of the entire Tokago Kingdom.

Many people were gloating and watching the fun. No matter whether the murderer could be traced or not, Ying Yunpeng and the Tenri Kingdom behind him had already lost their face.

The furious Ying Yunpeng hurried over with his people, not even bothering to investigate the matter of the destruction of the fleet. Although the property transported by ten giant merchant ships is huge, since it has been lost, so be it.

Moreover, this news is only known to the core leaders of the Tokago Kingdom. As long as outsiders don't know, their own face can be saved.

But Da Feng Ling actually died in Toka City's East Market, under the eyes and ears of countless Toka City guards. If this matter was not investigated as quickly as possible and the murderer was killed in public with the most cruel means, this would not be possible. This incident will be a heavy blow to the prestige of Tokago.

After all, so many people saw Da Feng Ling's death!

Arriving at the ditch angrily, Ying Yunpeng waved his two long arms above his knees and shouted sternly: "What on earth is going on?"

Ying Yunpeng actually really wanted to find an excuse, such as saying that Da Feng Ling suddenly suffered from an old disease. This was a fig leaf to prevent people from questioning the power of Tokaichi and even Tokaichi. But Da Feng Ling is a great witch. What disease can a great witch have

The Great Witch is a monster that is invulnerable to all functions and diseases, and can live for thousands of years with its surging energy and blood. The death of a young and strong shaman must be caused by external forces, not his own fault. Ying Yunpeng wanted to find an excuse to hide his shame, but there was nowhere to look for it!

Therefore, Ying Yunpeng could only yell and curse in anger, and questioned the witch priests and great witches who were investigating the cause of death.

An old shaman priest quickly walked up and bowed deeply to Ying Yunpeng respectfully: "Elder Yunpeng, the matter has been roughly cleared up."

One after another, people came forward to report what they saw and heard. Among these people were the waiters at the wine shop where Dafeng Ling was drinking just now, the accompanying girls who were teasing and playing with Dafeng Ling in the wine shop, and some who exchanged a few words with Dafeng Ling. The alien warrior won or lost thousands of jade coins by rolling the dice.

Since Dafeng Ling was poisoned that day and ran back to Tokaichi, she has been getting drunk at the liquor store. She is drunk every day, so drunk that she staggers when walking in the dark. Moreover, his luck in gambling with others has been extremely bad these days. For several days in a row, he has exported tens of thousands of jade coins every day, losing almost all his savings in Pusaka over the years.

Moreover, he also had conflicts with young people from other wealthy families over a few girls who were accompanying them to wine, and once they almost even agreed to fight to the death.

And today, after losing more than three thousand jade coins, Da Feng Ling, who had a clean pocket, yelled at the owner of the wine shop to keep accounts, and walked out of the wine shop smelling of alcohol. At that time, everyone saw that Dafeng Ling walked out of the wine shop alone and walked down the stone path on the hill.

About half a quarter of an hour later, when someone passing by found Dafeng Ling, he was already dead in the ditch.

During this process, there was no sound of fighting, no fluctuation of witchcraft power, and the Tokago war birds patrolling at high altitude did not notice anything strange.

A great witch jumped out of the ditch and handed a scorpion tail the size of a thumb to Ying Yunpeng with an ugly expression.

"Elder, Da Feng Ling must have been unsteady on his feet after being drunk and fell into the ditch. There was a piece of scorpion poisonous tail in the white sand paved by the ditch, which happened to penetrate into the back of his head. The scorpion poison paralyzed his whole body of witchcraft and spirit. The blood caused difficulty in breathing and directly suffocated him to death."

The great witch looked at Ying Yunpeng with a very strange expression: "There is no trace of anyone's involvement, but... it was just that he was unlucky, and there happened to be a piece of scorpion tail that fell off in the ditch where he fell."

A shaman priest said in a dry voice: "Looking at the appearance of this severed tail, it has been soaked in the water for about a month... It is not something temporarily placed, but it has been in this canal for a long time."

Ying Yunpeng opened his mouth wide and was speechless.

The poison on this scorpion's tail is not very strong. For a great witch, if he is not drunk, it is impossible for this poison to kill a great witch.

But Dafeng Ling was drunk and fell into the ditch, hitting his head on the broken tail. The scorpion poison entered his body, mixed with the power of alcohol, and he suffocated a promising young hero to death.

"How can I explain this to the clan leader of the Gale Tribe?" Ying Yunpeng roared angrily: "How do you ask me to say this?"

Another big witch ran over from afar, screaming at the top of his lungs:

"Elder, Ying Yun fell from his war bird... fell, fell to death!"

The whole place was in an uproar, and everyone looked at Ying Yunpeng who suddenly turned pale in shock.

These two chapters were a pleasure to write!

It can also be seen that Shao Si is actually really scary! She has no direct lethality, but she can make your teeth break even if you drink cold water!

So, for Shaosi, vote, dear brothers and sisters!
