Chapter 89: Black Mountain Case, Face to Face Confrontation, Tan Tai Yao: Are you really Song Chai Xin? !

The golden rooster crows at dawn, and the first rays of morning light fall on the Black Mountain.

On the most prosperous "Fulu Street" in the outer city, a major case that shocked the inner and outer cities occurred.

First, Zhong Xu, the outer city police officer who was in charge of guarding this area, held up a yamen knife and pushed through the crowd from a distance.
Then he saw the body of Wei Zhang, the eldest son of the Wei family, with his brain bursting out, hanging on the stone steps in front of his house. He died in a miserable way.

Seeing this, Zhong Xu's heart skipped a beat.

His spirit, which had not yet awakened, tensed up in an instant.

Following closely behind, with a slight chill in his brow, he knew that something big had happened.

When he stepped through the sparse crowd in the early morning and entered the Wei Mansion.

Just as he was wondering how Wei Zhang's father and the warriors in the entire Wei Mansion could let Wei Zhang die at the door.
A scene that shocked him even more and was even unbelievable happened.

In the Wei Mansion, he is one of the few "Great Innate" level beings in the outer city!

Wei Zongchang!
The head of the Wei family almost monopolized 50% of the "salt and iron" business in the outer city. He maintained his "Vajra Infallible" cultivation by madly swallowing precious medicines and elixirs.

As he walked in.

He was unexpectedly slammed half of his body into his own garden and embedded in the soil. Before he died, his eyes were wide open, looking in the direction of the threshold of his own mansion, and he died with his eyes open!

"Wei Zongchang is dead?!"

"Who on earth did this?"

When Zhong Xu saw this, his eyes narrowed, he gripped the sheath knife tightly, and a chill ran through his head.

He didn't even dare to think too much, so he turned around and walked hurriedly towards the outer city government office without wasting a moment. He wanted to find the head of the government office, Chen Zhenwu!

To put it mildly.

Originally, since this case involved the Wei Mansion, he felt something was not right.

But it seems right now.
Not to mention the squad leader.

Even if he is the head of a ninth-rank department, facing such a sudden and catastrophic case!
Chen Zhenwu, I’m afraid he can’t handle it all!
The head of the Wei family in the Wei Mansion has always paid heavy taxes to the government. Who among the Heishan nobles who have both "official positions" and "martial arts" has not eaten his resources?

He had established connections with people in the Demon Hunting Bureau and the Garrison, and it was said that he even had some connections in the capital.

Don’t look at the monk’s face, look at the Buddha’s face.

Therefore, Wei Zongchang’s death was of great significance.

More importantly.

Someone actually took advantage of the cover of night to commit a crime in the outer city's busiest street, and the person he killed was a great man like Wei Zongchang. It was just as if the word "unbridled" was written on his forehead.

If you don't investigate thoroughly.

Then next time, will it be the turn of the great innate in the inner city?

Which martial artist has cultivated to this level?

Can you allow such an unscrupulous "threat" to be above your head?

quickly,

The Black Mountain officials who arrived in a hurry completely sealed off the once prosperous Wei Mansion.

Then, Chen Zhenwu, the ninth-rank chief of the Heishan Yamen.

Together with the bronze-badged patrolman of the Demon Hunting Bureau stationed in the outer city, and Xie Wutong who was only one step away from becoming a great innate.

The two arrived together, one in front and one behind, representing the Naval District and the Demon Hunting Bureau.

Wei Mansion in the outer city, in front of the gate.

"It's not the work of demons. I can't sense even the slightest demonic aura here."

Xie Wutong was wearing a demon-hunting robe, and with his small jade-like palm turned over, he lifted up a jade stone that could sense the demon's aura.

Seeing that the color was not black, she raised her head and looked at the huge mansion. She spoke decisively to Chen Zhenwu, who had a grim expression on his face, and made a conclusion.

"." Chen Zhenwu's heart sank to the bottom. He had already sent someone to inform the garrison of this major case.

I heard Xie Wutong deny the "demons causing trouble".

The chief of the outer city began to ponder secretly, and his mind began to think in a complicated way:

"Although Wei Zongchang's Great Innateness is full of water, it is also the real Vajra without leakage."

"He killed him, and then his son. If he wasn't a demon who robbed the warriors of their 'spiritual energy' to nourish their Dao, then who could it be?"

"Even if I fight Wei Zongchang face to face, I can only have a 70% chance of winning."

"Looking at the entire outer city, the innate talents of the other two or three families and gangs can only achieve this level at most."

"How could they force Wei Zongchang to death?"

"Could it be that a ruthless person who is on the 'Prefectural Demon Hunting List' suddenly came to this remote and poor Black Mountain area? He doesn't want to take too many risks and attract attention, but he also wants to plunder some resources."

"So, you're targeting Wei Zongchang, the great innate from the outer city?"

When Chen Zhenwu thought of this, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

The Demon Hunting Division suppresses the "random demons" in the world. In addition to eliminating the harm caused by demons, it also sets up a demon hunting list specifically for "warriors".

The Demon Hunting List is divided into three levels.

The Dazhao Demon Hunting List, the State Demon Hunting List, and the Prefecture Demon Hunting List!
Even if it is the Prefecture's Demon Hunting List, if you want to get on it, at the very least, you have to be a 'Great Innate'!
When Da Zhao was first established, the Great Demon Lord wanted to suppress those who refused to obey the king's rule and discipline.

The Demon Hunting List is specially set up with the emphasis on "the net of heaven is vast and wide, and nothing can escape it."

All year round, there are senior patrols and top masters from the Demon Hunting Bureau who travel all over the world based on clues and whereabouts, just to bring these creatures to justice.

Among them, there are top warriors who come from the sect and refuse to obey discipline, there are "evil blood disciples" from various branches of the God Blood Sect, and there are also big bandits who collude with demons and occupy the mountains as kings.
All of them are extremely vicious and evil!
If there really was such a person who went to Montenegro.

I wonder how many wealthy Montenegrin dignitaries will be unable to sleep or eat well!

Moreover, it was also a huge blow to the "political achievements" of the Chen family, who were part of the garrison.

Chen Zhenwu was worried for a moment.

Fortunately, only two people from the Wei Mansion died. The other maids and servants might still be alive, but they fled in panic.

If I could get some information from these people, I wouldn't be considered a headless fly.

At least we can roughly guess what kind of person took action to completely destroy the foundation of the Wei Mansion!

Whether it was Chen Zhenwu or his foremen and runners, this was what they were thinking in their minds after they rushed to Wei's mansion as soon as possible.

Not long after,

Chen Zhenwu then met Wei An, the surviving steward of the Wei Mansion, who was brought by the yamen runners.

Originally, his expression was extremely heavy and his face was full of dark clouds.

But when he heard from Wei An that it was Ji Xia who beat his master and, together with an unknown man in gray, killed the father and son of the Wei family,
His expression was extremely wonderful:
"You said that Ji Xia killed Wei Zongchang?!"

Chen Zhenwu was stunned, looking at the trembling and frightened Wei An. Based on his years of experience as a company chief, he could tell him intuitively.

That is, the old man Wei An did not lie to him, nor did he dare to lie to him.

That's why!
So Chen Zhenwu was completely confused.

At this time, Xie Wutong was walking on the road to the Wei Mansion where the rain had stopped and the mud was splashing. He squatted in front of a body that was soaked in water and had its throat pierced by a sword. He frowned and leaned over to examine it carefully:

“The Man’s Face”

"I think I've seen it in the files of the Demon Hunting Department."

Some warriors with a history of bad deeds are not worthy of being listed on the third-class "Prefectural Demon Hunting List" because of their lack of cultivation.

Therefore, it will be recorded in the files and circulated to the hands of the demon-hunting patrol officers in every major city.

Xie Wutong was certain that he must have seen this face in a wanted poster, and was about to order his men to take away Wang Cuishan's body.

Then, I heard Chen Zhenwu yelling, and instantly my head was full of question marks:
"Ji Xia? Kill Wei Zongchang?"

"What a joke!"

Qingshi Lane, Ji Family.

Ji Xia brought Tan Tai Yao and Ji Han back.

Unlike the first two people who had calm expressions, each of them seemed to have something on their mind.

Ji Han looked uneasy all the time:
"Brother, Mr. Tan Tai."

“We did such a big thing today.”

"Are you really not going to leave Black Mountain under the cover of night?"

"The ordinary people in the Wei Mansion are not blind. Once the officers arrive, the people in the yamen will know that we are the ones who are attacking the Wei Mansion!"

"The garrison is originally a branch of the government. If they turn the tables and throw dirty water on us, we will be like jumping into the Black Mountain River and there will be no way to wash ourselves clean!"

Ji Han is a few years younger than Ji Xia and has never experienced any major ups and downs, so he is unsure.

But neither Tan Tai Yao nor Ji Xia cared.

Or
The two of them haven't spoken a word since leaving Wei's mansion.

Compared to the threat from the tutelary fort
I care more about some secrets of the other person.

"Ji Han, stay at the door. I have something to say to Mr. Tan Tai." Ji Xia suddenly spoke.

By the way, he also asked Ji Han to deal with the two corpses that he had killed.

This was to avoid being seen by some residents of Qingshi Lane, who would scare them and disrupt their conversation with Tan Tai Yao.

"Oh, okay." Ji Han was stunned for a moment, then he responded to Ji Xia's words instinctively.

I was just about to ask something,
But Ji Xia had already walked into the house with Tan Tai Yao.

At the same time, before entering, Tan Tai Yao waved his hand and, with his third-step strength, set up a domain barrier. If one's strength was not greater than his, it would be impossible to break it, let alone Ji Han.

He could not hear any sound coming from the house. Helplessly, even though he was full of doubts, he could only curl his lips and obey Ji Xia's instructions, cleaning up the corpses while waiting obediently.

But then again. "Mr. Tan Tai."

"Why do you look like you and my brother have known each other for a long time?"

"But this shouldn't be the case."

"It's becoming increasingly difficult to see through my brother's 'secrets'."

"But why should I care so much?"

"My Ji family has been in the hunting list for decades for three generations, but no one has ever emerged as a great figure. In this generation, my two brothers have finally made their ancestral graves proud!"

"It's time for the Ji family to take their turn!"

"With a great master like Mr. Tan Tai here..."

"Even if the garrison is backed by the government,"

"But in Black Mountain City, no one should be able to defeat him, right?"

"Look at it this way, my brother and I took the dog heads of the father and son, so it won't be a big problem!"

Tick, tick.

It rained heavily last night.

This clean, poor and narrow house seemed a little damp.

However, neither Ji Xia nor Tan Tai Yao cared about this.

Seeing Tan Tai Yao's face becoming increasingly serious, Ji Xia was the first to break the silence:

"Mr. Tantai, what do you want to know?"

"But then again."

"A strong man like you."

"Why did you stop at this small Black Mountain and happen to meet my younger brother Ji Han?"

Ji Xia sighed.

In fact, Ji Xia was really surprised by the appearance of Tan Tai Yao. It was completely beyond his expectations.

For a moment, Ji Xia even felt a little guilty.

Because to be honest, from the beginning to the end, Song Chai Xin had always been in debt to Tan Tai Yao because of the favor owed to him by his biological mother Xie Wei.

As a result, several decades later, he returned to his original form of Ji Xia, and in reality, he even brought up his name, wanting to write a letter to Xie Qiaoxuan without exposing himself.

Understand clearly what you, as "Song Chai Xin", did in the last "intermission".

Unexpectedly, I ran into the real boss in this small Black Mountain!

But then again,

Tan Tai Yao at this point in time.

Compared to the second step of the Free and Easy Realm, it is much stronger.

Ji Xia has seen several third-step masters. If we really want to be serious,
I'm afraid that even the two elders, Guanjian and Faxing, who are only second to the fourth step on Yunluan Mountain and have gone very far in the third step, are not as powerful as him!
Time can make people grow old quickly, and can turn black hair into white hair, and from being in the prime of life with boiling blood to being decayed and old and unable to walk.

But it can also allow people to climb up the stairs step by step.

On this warrior's road, the end of which can even be compared to the 'sacred'.
Become an immortal legend that will be passed down through the ages!
However, after not seeing Tan Tai Yao for decades, the last time they met, he still had a decadent face that was broken by Gu Hua.

Ji Xia's heart was filled with waves, and she couldn't help but want to know what he had experienced over the years.

When he left Qinjian Pavilion and later served as a garrison in Black Mountain, Ji Xia had heard that Tan Tai Yao had gone to Tongye Province, which was adjacent to Baoping Province, but he didn't know what happened afterwards.

While he was thinking about it, Tan Tai Yao on the opposite side made a move.

He just waved his hands, and with his breath, he created a scene out of nothing.

It was Qinjian Mountain, the scene that Tan Tai Yao had sent to Xie Wutong's confidant on the way to Xie's house.

"Someone sent a letter to the Xie family in my name."

"You said, I just happened to find it out by chance."

"How can I not come and find out?"

Tan Tai Yao's brows were serious, and he stared at Ji Xia word by word without blinking.

In an instant, Ji Xia understood the whole story.

"I see." He nodded and whispered softly with a bitter smile.

In this case, some things would make sense.

If he was Tan Tai Yao, he would see someone using his name to "cheat" and he would have really hit the mark.

He himself must have come here for a trip, more or less.

As for Ji Han.

If you cannot achieve the great innate state, your whole body will not be free of leaks.

This kid has reached the peak of the third step, in the hands of those people who can transform into a "field" with just a thought.

It's normal for people to see through the clues.

It was a blessing in disguise that Tan Tai Yao was able to keep Ji Han, a suspected traitor of the "Divine Blood Cult", and not report him to the government.

Thinking of this, Ji Xia let out a sigh of relief.

If he really got stabbed out.
It would be difficult to suppress this matter.

After all, whoever is tainted with the label of 'Divine Blood Cult', unless you are the reincarnation of the Great Demon Lord, or the Empress herself!
Otherwise, even if they are the high-ranking officials in the court.
If we say liquidation, then it will be liquidated!
"That's all your questions."

"I just happen to not want Ji Han to know some secrets, because he promised me that there are some things that don't need to involve him."

"But you are different. After all, this is the purpose of my trip."

"I came here just for you!"

"A barrier has been set up outside. Now..."

"It's time for you to answer the question from the Wei Mansion that you have been avoiding."

Tan Tai Yao stood up.

Ji Xia's shoulders sank in an instant.

I felt an incomparable pressure coming over me.

"Song Chaixin."

"How did you know this name?"

"And the foundation of 'Meteor Chasing the Moon' in you, as well as the authentic boxing art of 'Flames of War, Blood and Loyalty' that has reached the realm of boxing intent!"

"Again, where did it come from?"

Just poke a hole in the window paper.

Decades later, Tan Tai Yao revisited the old place.

Looking at the young man in front of him who was full of mysteries, he held his breath and focused, not missing any subtle expression on his face.

"Senior Tantai, what answer do you want to hear?"

Ji Xia's expression gradually became colder.

He did this on purpose.

Because long, long ago,
There is a person whose facial expressions and movements are almost always the same, whether he is smiling or showing any other expression.

When the two faces are actually somewhat different.

Gradually overlap and overlap.
Tan Tai Yao's breath stagnated, and he was suddenly in a trance, as if he saw the person from the past, returning again from the long river of history!
And then,

Ji Xia spoke directly without any hesitation:

"I'm Ji Xia."

Hearing this, I answered frankly.

The gray-clothed man opposite him trembled his hands, and his eyes showed visible disappointment.

"but,"

"I am also Song Chaixin."

boom!
Tan Tai Yao stood up and slammed the table. He stared at Ji Xia in front of him, with his eyes twitching:

"Do you know what you are talking about!"

Murderous intent began to overflow from his body, as if in the next second, if Ji Xia said something wrong, he would directly take his life with a single finger!
however,
As Ji Xia spoke calmly.

After talking about a memory that was hidden deep in his memory and he hadn't recalled it for a long time.
This hint of murderous intent.

Suddenly 'it came like wind and rain, and went away like dust'.

Immediately, it disappeared without a trace!

"Uncle Tantai, do you still remember the 'jade talisman' that we found by Xuanqing Lake?"

Pfft!
Tan Tai Yao fell down and sat down.

At this moment, he only muttered one sentence.

"really."

"It's you!"

"Can"

"How come you're still alive?"
