Lu Sheng put down the bowl and thought about it.
He had a feeling that his father, Lu Quan'an, seemed to be worried about something, so he wanted to send him to a farther place, so that it would be safer.
It's just that if Duanmuwan really doesn't show up all the time, Jiulian City really doesn't have the soil for him to grow again. It might be a way to go to Yanshan City, which is far more prosperous than Jiulian City.
"That's fine, I'll go and come back quickly. If I can really learn something from the famous master, I will send someone to send a letter back."
After thinking for a while, Lu Sheng agreed.
Yanshan City is very far away from Jiulian City, even farther than going to two Zihua cities.
It will take two days and one night to get there quickly, let alone the carriage.
After Lu Sheng agreed.
For the next few days, I lurked at home every day to practice martial arts and recharge my batteries.
Lu Qingqing also goes out every day as an exception, and she can often hear that she has caught someone back.
Lu Sheng couldn't control her, and no one in the mansion could control her. It was useless for Erniang to say a few words to her, so she could only let her go.
After a few days of self-cultivation, Lu Sheng was ready to start improving the skills he acquired later.
In those few kung fu, under the basic conditions of black tiger sword and jade crane kung fu, he easily mastered Poxin Palm with modifiers, and modified it to the peak of the third level of Dacheng.
For the rest of the effort, he didn't move for the time being, and planned to modify it after his qi and blood fully recovered.
There is also an Eighty-Four Swallow Chasing Wind Knife, which he just plans to practice slowly for comparison.
After repeating this, when he was about to leave, another strange thing happened in the city.
Several Orion households living near the city disappeared inexplicably on the day of Wanqing Festival.
A few days ago, someone saw them bringing wild animals such as fox fur into the city to sell.
Then it disappeared.
They all disappeared in Jiulian City, and the incident didn't start until the family members reported it to the authorities.
The important thing is that one of the hunters, his cousin, is a head catcher working in the yamen. This case was not dismissed casually.
But if you don't check, you don't know. When you check, you suddenly find something strange.
Those hunters walked only one way from beginning to end, and finally disappeared on the street near the Goldfish Restaurant.
They have been seen along the way.
So the catchers ran to the street near the Jinyu Restaurant to check again.
But there was a big fire there, and there was no one there. How could these hunters go to that place to sell wild animals
Just when Lu Sheng was wondering, Xiao Qiao rushed over and told him that Lu Qingqing went to the street near Jinyu Restaurant in the middle of the night alone.
During the day, no one came back.
With a thump in Lu Sheng's heart, he knew something had happened.
"Go there gently, when did it happen?" He asked hastily.
"I don't know, but, it should be in the middle of the night. The second lady would come back before dawn on weekdays, but she didn't come back this time. Her maid Xiaohong told me that the lady asked her to wait in the room to prepare hot water for her. , ready to bathe.
As a result, she waited for a long time and did not see the young lady coming back, so she was in a hurry! "Xiao Qiao replied quickly.
Lu Sheng was resting in the garden, which was a relaxation before practicing the sword.
I didn't expect such a thing to come out of nowhere.
"Go and inform Uncle Zhao and the Patriarch immediately, I'll go and have a look first!"
"Xiao Ba has brought someone to check the situation first, and he is the one who brought back the news of Miss's disappearance!"
Xiao Qiao hurriedly said.
"Xiaoba..." Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes. He remembered that it was the guard in the mansion. "I see."
He quickly put on a coat, took the family's standard long knife, led a horse from the stable, and hurried towards the Goldfish Restaurant.
The whole Lu Mansion was alarmed, Lu Quan'an immediately ordered Uncle Zhao to lead people to the Goldfish Restaurant, and also sent people to report to the magistrate's yamen.
A large number of human contacts quickly expanded.
First, make sure that Lu Qingqing is really missing, not just disappearing temporarily.
"drive!"
Lu Sheng galloped quickly on the deserted street on his horse. It was very early in the morning and there were no people on the street, which made it easier for him to go quickly.
Galloping wildly in the busy city, if it was normal, even he would not be immune to criticism.
But these are extraordinary times.
Xiao Ba sends a message back, saying that Lu Qingwei is missing, this is just an introduction that makes Lu Sheng nervous. What really made him anxious was the strange incident he had encountered in the street near the Goldfish Restaurant.
Huang Puma soon arrived at the gate of Jinyu Restaurant.
The door of the restaurant is locked, and it is just dawn, and it is not fully understood yet,
The street on the side of the restaurant was scorched and messy.
The wooden houses were not completely demolished because of the fire, only half of them were demolished, and the remaining half was put together with the construction waste piled on the ground, which looked extremely desolate.
Lu Sheng got off his horse and walked into this dark street.
Click...
The leather boots under his feet stepped on the ground, and he didn't know what kind of debris he stepped on, making a crisp sound.
Lu Sheng stretched out his hand to hold the handle of the knife. He had two fighting experiences, and he felt much more at ease.
A pair of eyes are shining brightly, looking around constantly.
Soon he discovered the clue.
In the middle of this charred black street, there were deep sword marks on the wooden pillar at the door of a house.
There are also messy footsteps on the ground, and fresh black soil can be seen in the footprints.
Lu Sheng reached out his hand to touch the sword marks on the pillar. The charred wooden pillar was still light yellow inside, not completely burnt.
This sword mark just cut out the light yellow wood inside.
"It should be around here."
He slowly pulled out the knife, and walked upside down towards the wooden house in front of him.
The roof of the wooden house has been burnt brightly. Walking through the gate, there is a mess everywhere, charred furniture, burnt cloth strips, and some melted sundries that don't know what they are.
Not a few steps into the house, Lu Sheng found the second trace.
The scorched wooden table fell to the ground, with two deep sword marks on the edge and a little bit of fine steel fragments.
"A lot of strength."
Lu Sheng picked up the fragments, guessing that it should be the fine steel long sword carried by the second sister Lu Qingqing.
He looked down at the footprints on the ground, speeded up, and walked towards the backyard of the house.
Walk out of the hut and into the family's backyard.
In a gap in the wall of the backyard, a strong one-eyed man wearing brown leather armor with messy hair was cursing and sticking something to the wall with a thick-backed machete.
"who!?"
As soon as Lu Sheng entered the backyard, the man immediately noticed it and stared at Lu Sheng fiercely.
"Who? I still want to ask who are you?"
Lu Sheng sized up the opponent a little.
This man is 1.89 meters tall, that is, about eight feet tall.
Muscles all over his body were bulging like a little mouse, and he was carrying a silvery, thick-backed machete with blood stains in his hand, and he had a ferocious aura like a beast faintly on his body.
"Me?" The big man laughed. Throw away the paper in your hand.
"It seems that you are a member of that little girl's family? That girl dared to kill my two disciples. My elder brother and I arrested her. It's a pity that you came a step late, and the girl has already been sent back to the cottage by my elder brother." Enjoy it slowly."
"Girl?"
Lu Sheng's eyes gradually darkened.
"Looking at your aura, you shouldn't be an unknown person, right? In Jiulian City, you must have heard of the reputation of my Lu family. Why don't you tell me the number, everyone has something to discuss."
"What the hell! You're the only kid from the Lu family?"
The man stared at Lu Sheng with a sneer.
"Everyone is behind." Lu Sheng has nothing to hide, the other party is an old man, so it's probably useless to tell lies.
It is better to tell the truth.
"You are the only one who dares to catch up with you, you have the guts!"
The man smiled.
"Second, third, take him down, and let the Lu family buy their lives with money!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two more men jumped in from another gap in the backyard, both of them were strong men in brown leather armor. One of them was holding a long-handled axe, and the other was holding an eyebrow stick.
"It's just such a little kid, I can solve it by myself, godfather, why did you ask the two of us to come out together?" One person cried bitterly.
"Whoever catches him first will take the credit!"
The man laughed.
Both of them laughed when they heard the words, and stared at Lu Sheng maliciously.
"Hehehe, what a handsome little brother, it's not bad to grab him back and just be with that girl, enjoy different things every night."
Two eyes stared at Lu Sheng's lower body lustfully.
"Enjoy the fart, let the godfather do it first!"
Santou spat hard on the palm of his hand.
"Break off his legs, don't get too much blood, it doesn't look good and affects sex. Last time, you chopped off your right hand with an axe, and the blood sprayed everywhere, and the whole body feels loose after doing it!"
"It's none of my business! Didn't you just hit that man's back with a stick? When it's our turn, he's almost out of breath!"
The two argued.
These two are twin brothers, who were born with strong physiques. Later, they accidentally learned from the brothers of the Lin family, Heifengling Guitou Dao Dao Dao in Jiulian City.
The guillotine Lin Hongshui was the man carrying the thick-backed machete.
Ghost-headed knife Lin Shuanghuo and guillotine knife Lin Hongshui, two major murderers who committed crimes in Jiulian City more than ten years ago, slaughtered two caravans overnight, robbed a lot of money and jewels and fled.
The unique skills of each of the two are two giant machetes of astonishing weight, and two sets of powerful wind-throwing saber techniques.
Lin Shuanghuo, the boss ghost swordsman, once set a perverted record of killing a person with one knife in the pursuit of the police.
This was Lu Sheng's first time confronting people head-on, and it was with three people at once.
He lifted the long knife and slowly looked at the two heads and three heads walking towards him.
"Try cutting first. There are too many people, if it doesn't work, withdraw first."
He was a little apprehensive, after all, he didn't know what strength he was now, and he didn't have a comparative position.
With such an idea.
Lu Sheng didn't use the Black Tiger Sword Technique, nor did he use the Poxin Palm.
Instead, he used the Eighty-one Swallow Chasing Wind Knife that he usually practiced by himself. You can't be seen through from the beginning.
He held the handle of the knife half tightly and half loosely, looking at the two heads.
"Come on!" Er Tou grinned and swung the big axe. Pointing to his forehead.
"Little boy is still decent, cut it here! Here!"
"Your grandfather, I will stand here and let you..."
Chi! !
In an instant, a silver lightning flashed past.
The long knife in Lu Sheng's hand turned into a light and nimble swallow, and suddenly crossed a distance of several meters, cutting across Ertou's body at once.
puff!
A human head suddenly flew up.
Blood was scattered all over the place.
The whole yard was silent.
