Cosmic Professional Gladiator Chapter 43: Zhang Ke and Xu Jingming
Fei Qing sat in the carriage, the carriage swaying slightly.
"The situation in the world is getting worse today, and the northwest is completely corrupted. Several army expeditions have failed." Fei Qing thought silently, "Emperor, you are cruel enough to your subordinates, but you can be cruel to those five princes who have huge armies. , but is getting weaker and weaker, and has been compromising!"
"Since the emperor ascended the throne, I left the imperial capital and took charge of the Blood Rain Guard in the Eastern Region of the Empire. I have not been with the emperor for a long time, and the emperor no longer trusts me so much."
Fei Qing let out a sigh.
He worked hard to manage the eastern region of the empire, cultivated a strong enough blood rain guard army, and maintained the basic stability of the entire eastern region, not as corrupt as the northern region of the western region.
"The stronger the Blood Rain Guards I train, the more the emperor will be afraid of me." Fei Qing was also a little tired, "But if I don't care, the Eastern Region of the Empire will also be corrupted and completely out of control."
"It has been more than a month since I returned to the imperial capital to report on my duties, and the emperor still did not let me go back."
"That Cheng Yanran acted tyrannically, slaughtering a **** rain guard team, and even implicated their family members. I took this as a punishment, just to punish and beat Cheng Yanran, but the emperor refused." Fei Qing secretly said, "The emperor is right. I'm not as good as I used to be."
In the eyes of outsiders, Fei Qing is still the right-hand man of the emperor.
However, Fei Qing knew...
The danger I face today.
"You have Dean Ming as a backer. Even if I fall, at least my little sister and my father, no one dares to move." Fei Qing thought about it, then sighed secretly, "Emperor, be a close and worthy minister. Ah, can you tell who is a worthy minister and who is a villain? Even I doubt it, who do you trust?"
The carriage also arrived at the Fei House at this time.
Fei Qing got off the carriage and entered the mansion.
"Sir, Jing Ming is here, asking to see you," said the silver-haired old man Lu Shao.
"Oh?" Fei Qing nodded slightly.
The trust of the emperor has decreased, and Fei Qing is not allowed to be slaughtered. Naturally, he is also managing the power that is loyal to him. Like 'Jing Ming', who has the potential to become a super-class master, also belongs to Fei Qing's backup force.
…
"Sir." Xu Jingming respectfully saluted.
"I know about your team." Fei Qing sat there.
"Your Excellency, it was ordered by Cheng Yanran, the prince of Yanwang's mansion, right?" Xu Jingming asked.
Fei Qing gave Xu Jingming a surprised look.
Xu Jingming purchased detailed information on "Cheng Yanran" on the virtual world network, and also knew the relationship between Huangquanmen and Yanwangfu! In addition, Cheng Yanran had sent someone to assassinate him the night before, which is easy to infer.
"Your Excellency, you said that Cheng Yanran will not give up." Xu Jingming said, "And I also found out in the Blood Rain Guard that the foundation of Huangquanmen is in the northern part of the empire, and it must have something to do with Yanwang's mansion, so I guess it is Cheng Yanran ordered it."
"Hmm."
Fei Qing nodded slightly, "I agree with your guess."
"Slaughtering a Blood Rain Guard team and affecting the family even more is a capital crime." Xu Jingming said that if he wanted to borrow official power, Cheng Yanran was too difficult to deal with.
"Without evidence, there is no way." Fei Qing looked at Xu Jingming, "Even if you have evidence, it is useless."
"Evidence is useless?" Xu Jingming looked at Fei Qing.
“Your Majesty must nod to arrest a prince.” Fei Qing said.
"My lord, Cheng Yanran attacked me and Luo Baichuan because of Miss Fei. After that, he continued to attack my team. Does your lord condone Cheng Yanran like this?" Xu Jingming asked.
"This is the imperial capital."
Fei Qing looked at Xu Jingming, "I said it doesn't count."
Xu Jingming was startled.
"Stay a little longer in the imperial capital and you'll understand." Fei Qing got up and left. Xu Jingming watched this scene and secretly said, "It seems that we can't rely on official power, we can only rely on ourselves."
…
Xu Jingming returned to the Nanyi Thousand Households, and dozens of colleagues died, and the Nanyi Thousand Households were also talking about this.
"Pity Brother Qu and the others."
"Huangquanmen's methods are so cruel that they even implicate their family members."
Seeing this scene, Xu Jingming could feel the numbness in the hearts of these Blood Rain Guards: "I can feel that they didn't intend to avenge their colleagues. Dozens of colleagues were killed, and their family members were killed. It's so tragic. ...why are they still so numb?"
Suddenly there was an angry screeching voice from the front.
"Zhao Baihu! You only have three teams under your command, and now one team is almost wiped out, and even your family members are implicated. I beg you to send someone to investigate, but are you still asking for bribes?" Zhang Ke's frantic voice came.
Zhang Ke walked out and scolded back, "I've seen it, what does it mean to ask for money! You are also worthy of being a blood rain guard?"
"Zhang Ke!"
Zhao Defang came out, his beard trembling, and said angrily, "Don't slander this official! When will I ask for bribes? Investigate Huangquanmen, self-owned town government envoys ordered, which round will I send people? Given your whole family Being destroyed by Huangquanmen, I will not hold you accountable for your slander, but be careful, you can’t say anything.”
"Hahaha..." Zhang Ke laughed, laughing wildly.
The other Blood Rain Guards sighed as they watched this scene.
"Deputy Captain Zhang Ke is really pitiful."
"Unfortunately, I messed with Huangquanmen."
"I don't know which people you can't provoke when you do things in the imperial capital?" These Blood Rain Guards muttered to themselves. They are majestic to ordinary people, but they are cautious in the face of real power, lest they cause disaster. .
Xu Jingming also watched all this.
"I was just like you before."
Zhang Ke looked at the many Blood Rain Guards around him, "Walking with the flow, in a daze, just messing around like this, I feel that the royal family is not easy to mess with, I feel that the major forces in the imperial capital are terrible, and I feel that those Blood Rain Guards are affected and corpse on the streets. , it's bad luck, it's their bad luck, who made them anger those big forces?"
"But I understand now, the Blood Rain Guards, the Blood Rain Guards, have long lost their blood!" Zhang Ke sneered, "Without the **** Blood Rain Guards, it is a joke, a joke!"
"If there is blood, if it is the blood rain guard of the imperial capital when my father was young! Who would dare to slaughter a blood rain guard team? Also implicate family members? I am afraid that the blood rain guard will turn the entire imperial capital over."
"Unfortunately, that was the Blood Rain Guard of the past..."
Speaking of which, Zhang Ke walked out.
"Zhang Ke." Xu Jingming stopped him.
Zhang Ke looked at Xu Jingming, but directly said: "Captain, and everyone present, stay away from me, otherwise you will easily be implicated by this madman." Then he strode out.
The surrounding Blood Rain Guards buzzed and talked about it.
"The blood rain guard back then?" Some old blood rain guards had mixed feelings, "It's different, that's the past."
…
Outside the city, in front of the cemetery.
Zhang Ke knelt there.
Xu Jingming came here, and also came forward to offer tribute and burn some paper money.
"Captain, you should keep your distance from me." Zhang Ke looked at the tombstone and said calmly, "From now on, I am a living dead, a living dead only for revenge. I don't want to implicate you. I can I can see... Captain, you are a good person and bloody. Don't be implicated by me."
"Zhang Ke."
Xu Jingming turned to look at Zhang Ke, "Those who died are my brothers, can I leave it alone?"
"And they and their families are all implicated by me." Xu Jingming said softly.
Zhang Ke was startled and looked up at Xu Jingming: "Is it implicated by you?"
"Do you remember the assassination of me the night before?" Xu Jingming said, "That night, a killer also assassinated Luo Baichuan, and Luo Baichuan was cut off by one arm and one leg. If that night, I would have also broken one arm and one leg. , there may be no follow-up revenge."
"Because I blocked the assassin and made the messenger angry, I sent a stronger team to destroy my entire team," Xu Jingming said.
"Who is the murderer? Why did he target the captain and Luo Baichuan?" Zhang Ke asked.
"Cheng Yanran, Prince of Yan's Mansion." Xu Jingming said, "Just because Luo Baichuan and I are Miss Fei's best friends of the opposite sex."
Zhang Ke felt unbelievable: "Just for this reason?"
"Yes, because of that."
Xu Jingming nodded, "In the eyes of the Prince of Yan Wangfu, maybe we ordinary Blood Rain Guards are like pigs and dogs, killing them at will, killing them at will."
"Haha...hahaha...It's ridiculous, this world is really ridiculous." Zhang Ke laughed, but he staggered and walked into the distance.
"Zhang Ke." Xu Jingming looked at him.
Zhang Ke ignored Xu Jingming.
…
"I want to offer a reward to Cheng Yanran, the prince of Prince Yan's mansion." Zhang Ke, who was wearing a black robe and a mask, said in the secret hall.
"Cheng Yanran has always offered a reward to the Seven Kills Building. The reward has been offered for six years, and no one has succeeded." The reception staff of the Seven Killing Building said.
"Two thousand six hundred taels of silver." Zhang Ke threw gold bars, silver ingots and other items on the table, "I want to raise the reward."
"Good."
The receptionist is casual.
Looking at the entire world of Blood Rain, not many of the Seven Killing Buildings dare to 'offer a bounty'! Prince Yan's mansion? Seven Kills Building doesn't care. King Yan only controlled the territory of the country, which had limited influence on the Seven Killing Buildings.
"The reward amount is only 32,600 taels, including mine?" Zhang Ke looked at the amount, "This prince has ruined the innocence of many wealthy women, and none of those wealthy families have offered a large reward. ?"
"The more wealthy you are, the more you are afraid of King Yan. It would be good to have a reward of more than 30,000 taels." The reception staff of the Seven Killing Building smiled softly, "My lord, is there anything else?"
Zhang Ke turns his head and leaves.
…
Evening hours.
Cheng Yanran's team marched on the street, the twelve guards were on the left and right, and the groom was driving.
"Cheng Yanran! You sent people to slaughter the Blood Rain Guards and kill them all over the house. I, Zhang Ke... a lonely ghost, have come to collect debts!" With the loud shouts resounding throughout the bustling streets, a A man in the official uniform of the Blood Rain Guard, wearing a filial attire, strode over with a pair of knives in hand.
This made countless people on the street secretly surprised, and all of them avoided it.
"Slaughtering the Blood Rain Guards, destroying the whole family?"
"Who is Cheng Yanran?"
"The last name is Cheng! It should be a descendant of the clan."
Pedestrians are talking.
Zhang can see death as home, killing the carriage team.
Cheng Yanran's expression changed in the carriage. Some things could be done quietly, but if they were stabbed open, it would still be a little troublesome.
"Kill him." Cheng Yanran's order came from inside the carriage.
"Dare to slander His Royal Highness, it should be killed." Three guards rushed out immediately, Zhang Ke charged with a pair of knives, even if Zhang was a first-class master... But he only fought a few tricks, and he was besieged by the three guards. A knife slashed his throat.
…
South One Thousand Households.
"Boom."
Zhang Ke's body was thrown in front of Nanyi Thousand Households.
"Blood Rain Guard Zhang Ke, assassinated His Royal Highness in the street." There were two guards on horseback in front of the Nanyi Thousand Households, and one of them reprimanded, "You Nanyi Thousand Households, you must give your Highness an explanation."
"Assassination of the prince is a major crime involving the Nine Clan, and His Majesty will soon know about it."
After the two guards finished speaking, they turned their heads and left, leaving only Zhang Ke's body lying in front of the Nanyi Thousand Households.
The blood rain guards and the auxiliary guards all came out soon, and they all looked at Zhang Ke's body and looked at each other.
"Assassination of His Royal Highness in the street?" Zhao Defang came after the news and looked at Zhang Ke's body, but was so angry that he scolded, "You don't want to live, but you want to harm us? This is a disaster, a disaster!"
Assassination on the street cannot be denied. As a member of the 100-household 'Zhao Defang' of his team, he cannot escape accountability. Of course, Xu Jingming also has to take responsibility.
********
Virtual World Network.
Xu Jingming is in the spaceship hall at the moment, looking at the materials in his hand: "I have been preparing for Cheng Yanran's plan for two days, and I still feel unsure. I always panic."
Call.
Suddenly a figure emerged from the void, it was Pang Ze.
"You haven't seen me for a long time." Pang Ze looked at Xu Jingming with a smile, "I am an agent, and my name is not true."
"So I invite Mr. Pang today." Xu Jingming said.
"What's the matter?" Pang Ze asked.
Xu Jingming handed the materials in his hand to Pang Ze: "I met an enemy in the world of blood rain, and I want to eradicate him! This is the information I collected and the plan I made. Please also correct me Mr. Pang. ."
Pang Ze took the material and looked over it.
Xu Jingming waited silently.
Pang Ze said after reading it: "You are too petty, and you only have 50 million Universe Coins ready! Do you have to deal with such a tough bone?"
Xu Jingming was taken aback.
"Looking at these materials, I can see at a glance that King Yan actually doesn't care about the life and death of this prince." Pang Ze said, "The one who really cares about his life and death is the emperor ~IndoMTL.com~. You want to kill the prince... In fact, the biggest obstacle is the emperor!"
"You don't even know your opponent, do you think your plan will be successful?" Pang Ze quipped, "But your plan also has merit, first start targeting the 'wealth' of the Prince of Yan's mansion, and loot first. One wave! At least the capital can be earned back."
"I also don't feel sure about it, so I think I will earn back the cost of the plan first." Xu Jingming said immediately, "Afterwards, I will make a desperate blow. I believe that many cosmic citizen players will assassinate their lives with certainty. ."
"Too rough."
Pang Ze said, "In this way, this action will be counted as my share. I will invest 300 million universe coins! The subsequent income will be divided according to 6:1."
"Three hundred million?" Xu Jingming was startled.
Is it such a big deal?
"The best way is to conquer the weak." Pang Ze said, "Do you need me to join? It's okay not to join. I will help you improve the plan, but the probability of success is still no more than 30%."
"Mr. Pang is willing to join, I can't ask for it." Xu Jingming said.
"The total investment of 350 million Cosmic Coins, I will make a plan." Pang Ze nodded.
Xu Jingming suddenly felt calm.
That's it!
