Chapter 51 The mysterious man in black
·
Tie Ma Fei Qiao
The fire was so bright that when Liu Wuxie arrived, the oil workshop had been burned down to nothing but a shell. Fortunately, it was night and most of the workers had gone home from work.
No casualties were caused, and the oil extracted from it was burned out, and at least 50 gold coins were lost.
The flames soaring into the sky illuminated half of Canglan City. The location of the oil workshop was not in the city, but was built in the suburbs. Many people rushed to help put out the fire.
"Wuxie, you are here!"
Xu Yilin was one step ahead and stood on the periphery of the fire. The fire has been brought under control and will not continue to spread.
The violent flames made a crackling sound, and the huge building collapsed.
"Father-in-law, the safety measures in the oil workshop have always been very good, why did it suddenly catch fire?"
Xu's guards and servants all came to fight the fire. The flames became smaller and smaller, and a lot of burnt wood and mixed oil gave off a strange smell.
Many people gathered in the distance, and they came to watch in the middle of the night, covering their noses.
"There is absolutely nothing wrong with our security measures."
Although the oil factory is not the main source of income for the Xu family, it is also very important. Deacon Lan has to inspect it every day. It suddenly caught fire, which is very unusual. The investigation team left tonight.
"What does father-in-law mean, someone set fire on purpose?"
Using the ghost pupil technique, he passed through layers of flames and reached the depths of the oil workshop. Then his eyes narrowed, and there were many holes pierced by sharp weapons on the oil barrels placed, and the oil overflowed, causing a fire.
"Not sure at the moment, we will know when the investigation is clear."
The Xu family can afford to lose an oil factory. If they don't find out who is behind the scenes, next time not only the oil factory, but also the weapons workshop will be their targets.
"Father-in-law, take someone to the next oil mill immediately and check it carefully."
Liu Wuxie didn't tell what he saw, who did it, at first he suspected it was Tian and Wan's family, but was soon overthrown.
The Tian and Wan families are also involved in other industries, and it was really their two families who did it. The Xu family can also set their shop on fire. This kind of practice will only hurt both sides, and the suspicion of the two families is not great.
"Wuxie, then be careful!"
Xu Yilin took the guards and ran quickly towards another oil factory, leaving behind ten guards to protect Liu Wuxie's safety.
The flame disappeared, and the remaining smoke billowed, choking everyone's eyes.
"You say, who set fire to Xu's oil workshop?"
There were murmurs of discussion in the distance, the Xujia Youfang had been built for decades, and there had never been any accidents. Tonight was a bit too weird. Such a big flame was unusual.
"I heard that the Xu family offended the investigation team. Could it be that the investigation team ordered them to do it?"
Some people even suspected that the investigation team was on the head. They had only left Canglan City not long ago, and they were indeed suspected.
Taking out her handkerchief, covering her nose, Liu Wuxie walked towards the ruins step by step, hoping to find some clues.
"Grandpa, don't go in, it's dangerous inside."
The house has not completely collapsed, if you go in rashly, you may be crushed to death, and the guards rush out behind you, telling him not to go in.
"Go and check around to see if there is any suspicious person."
Liu Wuxie waved his hand to tell them not to follow. He stepped on the burnt dead wood and entered the interior of the oil workshop. There were still slight sparks coming out, and the thick smoke blocked his sight. With the help of the ghost pupil technique, he could see clearly .
After the ghost pupil technique was promoted, it lasted longer, blocking the scorched wall in front, a layer of faint ripples appeared, and the line of sight passed through the wall. "Ability to penetrate walls!"
Shocked and startled, I didn't have time to think, and my sight got farther and farther away. On the other side of the wall, weeds as tall as a person grew. Usually no one came here. Below the weeds was a sewage ditch.
"Whoosh!"
A black figure emerged from the weeds, wearing a black mask, unable to see the face, turned around and swept away.
Normal people can't see behind the oil workshop, surrounded by layers of fire, there is a mountain road along the weeds, you can enter the back mountain, and go back to Canglan City.
"There is indeed someone!"
The body exploded and turned into an afterimage. Standing on the dilapidated roof, a terrifying heat wave came from under the feet. With a light tap of the toes, it quickly swept down and appeared behind the house.
Before the guards of the Xu family could react, Liu Wuxie had long since disappeared.
The black shadow passed through the dense grass and swept towards the distant mountains. When he entered this mountain range, the sky was so high that birds could fly, and it was difficult to find his trace.
It was pitch black all around, and ordinary people came in and lost their way very quickly, relying on the ghost pupil technique, they could clearly see every inch of the trees, hanging far behind the black shadow, more than 50 meters apart.
After running for a while, Hei Ying noticed someone following him, so he quickened his pace.
He was fast, Liu Wuxie was even faster, like a shooting star, with his feet sticking to the ground, he jumped ten meters away, his speed was extremely fast.
Maybe realizing that Liu Wuxie couldn't get rid of, the speed of the black shadow suddenly slowed down, and a cliff appeared in front of him, bypassing this place, he could return to Canglan City.
There was no way to go, the way back was already blocked by Liu Wuxie, approaching step by step, the black shadow turned around, looked towards Liu Wuxie, his eyes flashed a sinister look under the faint starlight.
"Who are you and why have you been following me?"
The black shadow spoke, and asked coldly, a bright long knife appeared in his hand, with a faint luster, a good knife.
"The fire in the oil workshop was lit by you!"
Liu Wuxie didn't answer. He stood five steps away, with a cliff behind him. The man in black couldn't fly with his wings.
"Boy, if you want to meddle in other people's business, you dare to keep up with a small innate realm, are you getting impatient?"
The man in black let out a chattering laugh, and the willow leaf scimitar in his hand made a rattling sound, and suddenly slashed at Liu Wuxie with the knife, hitting as soon as he said it, without any muddy water.
He knew very well that Liu Wuxie could easily catch up with him. This person is not simple, and he is the first to strike first.
The saber technique is extremely fierce, straight to Liu Wuxie's neck, ruthless and tricky, this kind of saber technique is rare in Canglan City.
Liu Wuxie knows a thing or two about the martial arts of the four major families. No one, including the City Lord's Mansion, has learned such a strange sword technique.
Compared with the Blood Rainbow Saber Technique, it is far different. When the fifth stage of the Spiritual Cleansing Realm is cast, the shadow of the sword is heavy. Around the cliff, the sword energy forms a wave-like impact and sweeps towards it.
When I went out tonight, I didn't have time to wear the sword, so I came alone and stepped on the seven stars to avoid the fatal knife.
The man in black was stunned for a moment, and Liu Wuxie easily dodged under his killing blow, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
"It's interesting, a small innate realm can avoid my cold bayonet technique, it's not easy!"
With a turn of the blade, the body is pulled up in the air, forming a 180-degree rotation on the spot, and the terrifying blade energy is forced towards Liu Wuxie's legs. .
Without using the ghost pupil technique, Liu Wuxie relied on his speed and control of the battle to kill his opponent as much as possible.
Two figures, you come and go, Liu Wuxie has been dodging, the opponent's cold bayonet technique can't even touch the corner of Liu Wuxie's clothes, the more they fight, the more shocked they become.
"Who the hell are you? When did such an evildoer appear in Canglan City? The Xiantian Realm can compete with the Spiritual Cleansing Realm."
The man in black showed a trace of panic. Judging from the voice, this person should be in his thirties, and in his forties, Liu Wuxie really couldn't find him. There is such a person in Canglan City.
There is only one possibility, the other party may not be from Canglan City, but may be a master from other big cities.
"I should ask you this sentence, what kind of grievances does the Xu family have with you, and I want to order fuel workshop."
Only Liu Wuxie dared to do this, stepping on the seven stars and fighting against each other, bullying the body and advancing instead of retreating. He suddenly raised his right hand, a simple punch, but there was no trace to follow.
Road to simplicity!
Any martial art, in the hands of Liu Wuxie, has unexpected effects. This is the basic boxing method, which is used to beat the body in normal times.
The man in black was shocked, and his body quickly retreated. With every move, Liu Wuxie could find the flaws in his moves. This punch seemed soft and weak, but it made him feel like a ghost. murderous look.
What's even more frightening is the simple punch, but there is no way to crack it. This is the scariest thing.
Everyone knows how to practice basic boxing techniques, and no one in the Great Yan Dynasty can perform basic boxing techniques to such an extent.
No wonder the man in black looked terrified, and cut the lancet across his hand to protect his chest. This is a big blow that hurts both sides. Even if he was hit by Liu Wuxie, the long knife would cut off Liu Wuxie's hands.
In the use of zhenqi, he is far inferior to Liu Wuxie. The dantian is endless in the wild, and the zhenqi is like a flood of beasts. The fist energy can be transformed into various forms, like a tiger coming out of the cage, roaring angrily.
The true qi in the Spiritual Cleansing Realm is not as good as that in the Xiantian Realm, and if it spreads out, no one will believe it.
The man in black seemed to have seen a ghost, and his fists were getting closer and closer.
"You can't hide!"
Liu Wuxie let out a contemptuous laugh, and disappeared in place like a ghost, appearing behind the man in black, and two shadows appeared on the field.
"not good!"
The man in black was shocked. Liu Wuxie's fighting skills far exceeded his predictions, and he couldn't dodge. His body that retreated continuously suddenly stopped and shot forward.
"too slow!"
The fist fell like a hammer, hitting the man in black's back fiercely, his body staggered, he flew out, and smashed his head into the rubble.
"puff!"
Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and the mask fell down, just like Lynch guessed, 34 years old, with a strange face, the first time he saw it.
The tyrannical Taihuang zhenqi rushed into his body, causing his tendons to become disorganized, out of breath, and uncomfortable all over.
"Now tell me, who sent you here!"
Liu Wuxie walked over step by step, her tone was cold, she had to figure out who was behind the murder of the Xu family.
"Chachacha, if I'm not mistaken, you are that good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Xu family!"
The man in black thought of who it was, and let out a tragic laugh. It was rumored that the Xu family was useless and didn't know how to cultivate.
"you know me?"
Liu Wuxie was taken aback, this person was unfamiliar, he was not from Canglan City, how could he know him.
"It really is you. I just didn't expect that the rumored trash is so strong. I won't be wronged tonight. If you want to kill me, you are not enough."
The man in black suddenly shot up and fled towards the distance. He couldn't beat Liu Wuxie and chose to run away.
No casualties were caused, and the oil extracted from it was burned out, and at least 50 gold coins were lost.
The flames soaring into the sky illuminated half of Canglan City. The location of the oil workshop was not in the city, but was built in the suburbs. Many people rushed to help put out the fire.
