Chapter 11‖Banxia

’s Exclusive Novel‖

*

Wu Du handed the head in the basket to the employer.

The employer was a very young girl. She stared at the head in the basket for a moment and burst into tears.

There were countless bad things in the martial arts world. The employer was the survivor of that small sect. The leader’s daughter was recuperating at home. Few people knew of her existence.

After Bu Zao handed over the head, he handed her the secret book that brought disaster. The girl wiped her tears, paid the final gift, thanked Wu Du, and left with the basket on her back.

[Side Quest: The Girl's Commission (Completed)]

[Quest Description: A sudden disaster destroyed a happy family, and the girl, who was seriously ill, knew her own incompetence. She had only one wish, to use the head of her enemy to commemorate her dead relatives and friends. Can you help her?]

[Client's evaluation: Five-star review. Message: Thank you.]

Bu Zao looked through the mission rewards. In addition to the remuneration paid by the employer in person, there was also a reminder of reputation +10.

This was not the second disciple's first mission, but it was the first time to literally harvest heads.

Plans can never keep up with changes. Meeting Leng Xue under such circumstances was not in Bu Zao's original plan. Moreover, after only this short encounter, Leng Xue's head of police obviously did not recognize that Wu Du had met him before.

Seven years ago, the opening scene when Wudu landed was quite difficult. Lengxue showed up at the end of the opening scene and met Wudu, but the two did not exchange names.

Lengxue, who was not yet a police chief at that time, did not seem to hate Wudu so much, but I believe that Lengxue now has a very bad impression of Wudu. However, customers are God, and the requirements of employers are more important.

Bu Zao felt a little sad - the second disciple was the friendliest vest besides the mascot, but this time he left by carrying a human head in a basket. This is more like a zombie killer than a germaphobe killer!

Leng Xue worked until dawn. The principal criminal was dead. By interrogating the owner of the house, he found out the whereabouts of the other accomplices. However, the owner often paid tribute to the local magistrate, and Leng Xue was very tired of the hassle and flattery.

The butcher shop didn't need to be opened anymore. Leng Xue took a break from his busy schedule. After returning the key to the landlord, he passed by the door of the butcher shop and saw the peddler again. The

peddler stood in a daze at the door of the butcher shop, and met Leng Xue's eyes from a distance. Leng Xue took off his disguise and clothes. The two met without knowing each other. The peddler stood in front of the butcher shop and looked at him for a while, then picked up the cargo box and turned away.

Leng Xue watched the peddler walk away, and stood there watching the closed door of the butcher shop. He could hear the other vendors' puzzlement about why he didn't open the door to do business.

But soon, their topic turned to the big event that happened in the rich man's house last night. Leng Xue retracted his gaze and turned away.

...

Wu Du.

He is a lone wolf and a killer with mysterious whereabouts.

After Leng Xue knew his name, he began to inquire about the news related to this person, and was surprised to find that this person's figure had appeared many times in the intelligence collected by the Six Gates since the beginning of spring.

Wu Du's name was not among them. No one knew the name of the young killer with black eyes and wearing a mask, but those descriptions were indeed the characteristics of Wu Du.

"It seems that you are the first person to know his name."

After discussing each other's recent situation with his junior brother, Wuqing said to Lengxue thoughtfully.

The Six Gates' intelligence will have to include Wudu's name.

Lengxue frowned as he looked at the intelligence, somewhat puzzled: "Is he deliberately going against the Six Gates?"

In every case where he appeared, Wudu either intercepted at the last minute or killed the target in advance and ran away.

What's more, this person would use various methods to emphasize that he was "paid to do things."

"He said he would do things for money. Maybe most of the time it's just a coincidence." Wuqing looked down at the news about Jin Jiuling and Wanwulou, and did not forget to confirm with his junior brother, "He did say that the news was provided by Wanwulou."

"Yes. Except for the identity of the employer, he answered me truthfully no matter what I asked."

Lengxue now thinks that Wudu is too polite to be a killer. No one knew his name before, maybe because no one asked him.

Or that person doesn't seem to have the self-awareness of being a killer. He even thinks he is just doing business.

How can a killer be nice to the head of the police and answer all the questions?

Lengxue picked up the pen and added Wudu's name to the case file. Wuqing looked at the name of the owner of Wanwulou, who was also added to the case file in his hand, and didn't know whether to connect the two people.

Chongming's choice to reveal his name to the public, is it related to the appearance of the killer Wudu?

The two of them closed their files, and Wuqing decided to deal with the cases that Jin Jiuling had committed first.

It is hard to imagine that a world-famous detective would do those things because of his own greed, but the letter handed over by Yaoyue clearly listed that Jin Jiuling had done other things besides being an embroidered flower thief.

What Jin Jiuling did has spread in the martial arts world, and the role played by Wanwulou is also well known. Wuqing doesn't know if Chongming is satisfied, but he can foresee that he will hear this name more often in the future.

The weather has been very clear recently. The local Liushenmen hired someone to repair the roof. The craftsman passed by the door and the sound of his conversation with the detective came into the house.

Leng Xue pricked up his ears, got up and went out with a bit of doubt.

The young peddler who had met him several times was carrying a ladder and following the constable. The two passed by the opposite corridor.

Leng Xue thought, it's this man again.

The peddler saw Leng Xue and perhaps found that they had met before. He stared at him for a moment before looking away. Then he placed the ladder and climbed onto the roof with his tools on his back.

It had been seven days since they last met outside the butcher shop. During this period, Leng Xue sent people to search the city for Wu Du's whereabouts, but found nothing. However, he met this insignificant peddler again.

The peddler was knocking on the roof, making clanking sounds. Leng Xue returned to the house and pushed Wu Qing out.

The two passed by the corridor, and the peddler's eyes were vague without any malice.

Wuqing asked: "Is he someone you know?"

Lengxue replied: "I had a few words with him when I was disguised as a butcher."

Lengxue and Wuqing returned from lunch. The peddler had already finished the repair work and was leaning against the ladder in a daze.

By the way, this man was a peddler before...

The peddler smiled heartily at the two of them without any restraint, then left with a ladder, and his figure disappeared around the corner.

Leng Xue retracted his gaze.

Meeting with important characters can also help increase one's reputation. Bu Zao is now an ordinary background board, and his weak presence now will become a detail that cannot be ignored in the future.

The original Bu Zao continued his working life, and after making enough presence, he went to the next destination.

Because the eldest disciple Chong Ming made his name known, more and more people came to him. Among them, in addition to customers who did business seriously, there were also many people sent by underworld forces to test him. However, Chong Ming took over the business, but he ignored everyone and handed it over to Sikong Zhaixing to deal with.

Sikong Zhaixing was quite dissatisfied with this, because he felt that he was becoming more and more like Chongming's subordinate, which was a serious deviation from his original intention. The news of Lu Xiaofeng in Wanwulou was also known to others. He did contribute to the fame of Wanwulou, and many people who came to Wanwulou were old acquaintances of him.

"So you can't change places!" Sikong Zhaixing expressed his dissatisfaction.

"No." Chongming said very coldly.

"Yihua Palace said they were going to settle accounts with you, aren't you afraid of them?"

Sikong Zhaixing didn't know how Wanwulou had offended Yihua Palace, but this did not prevent the discussion about this in the martial arts world, and it did not prevent him from being full of gossip.

Chongming looked at him with a strange expression. Sikong Zhaixing was more curious about what Wanwu Tower had done than persuading Chongming to change the venue. Lu Xiaofeng was probably the same, because he pricked up his ears alertly, with a look of anticipation.

"I'm afraid of what they will do," Chongming said coldly, "Isn't it that you are here to stop them? Or do you want to abandon me and leave? Then the news that you are suffering under the hands of me, the owner of Wanwu Tower, will be widely known."

"I already said that I am not your subordinate." Sikong Zhaixing was angry, "Why don't you call your own subordinates!"

Chongming paused, then showed a strange smile, and did not express any opinion on this sentence, as if Sikong Zhaixing had just said something very interesting.

Lu Xiaofeng said thoughtfully: "Did your subordinates do anything unnecessary? Otherwise, it's just ordinary business. How could they hate you?"

Chongming lost his patience: "Just because I don't like talking to you doesn't mean I like listening to you."

"Hey, you lose your patience too easily!" Sikong Zhaixing said dissatisfiedly, "If you treat people as your subordinates without permission, you should be more patient. If you do this, I will never be your subordinate in my life."

"Si, you are really annoying." Chongming's expression was as cold as the half silver mask.

Sikong Zhaixing: "Si! Kong! My surname is Sikong!"

Lu Xiaofeng laughed.

Three days later.

Yaoyue stared at the vermilion door expressionlessly.

It had been a while since the disciples who followed him knocked on the door, but no one came to open the door, and the conversation in the courtyard never stopped. Although it was intermittent and not very clear, it could be heard that two men were arguing about who should open the door.

What's wrong with this damn Wanwu Tower? Yao Yue was in a bad mood. She raised her hand and banged the door open. The lock broke and the vermilion door was shaking and about to fall.

Sikong Zhaixing and Lu Xiaofeng were stunned, staring at the women in white clothes who were imposing at the door. The woman surrounded by disciples had a cold face and looked superior. She looked at them with disgust. "Who is Chongming?" Yao Yue asked coldly.

The two guys who didn't want to open the door suddenly realized at this time and confirmed that the person who came was from Yihua Palace.

"Master Chong—he doesn't see anyone." Lu Xiaofeng said.

Yaoyue was a beauty. When Lu Xiaofeng first saw her, she thought she was as unattainable as the bright moon in the sky. Even her frowning brows looked beautiful.

"What do you mean?" Yaoyue had never been patient with men, even if the other party was Lu Xiaofeng, her tone was as cold as ice. "Are you afraid to see me or do you disdain to see me?"

So what did Wanwulou do to Yihua Palace? Lu Xiaofeng's curiosity was bubbling in her heart. She glanced at Sikong Zhaixing who had a stern face and explained, "He went out... to relax."

If going out without saying a word because he was annoyed by Sikong Zhaixing and had not shown up for three days could be considered relaxing.

Yao Yue was even more annoyed. She had come all the way to see someone, but

Chong Ming was not there. "When will he come back?" Yao Yue snorted coldly, "Maybe he ran away."

"We don't know when he will come back either." Lu Xiaofeng said honestly, "He hasn't shown up for three days."

Yao Yue: "- Is this his residence? As his subordinates, you don't know anything about it

." Lu Xiaofeng: "It's his residence."

Sikong Zhaixing: "I'm not his subordinate."

Yao Yue: "..."
