Chapter 69 Murder and Arson

"boom--"

In the darkness, a beam of fire shot up into the sky.

Chen Sanshi carried the sack and left quickly.

This time, I really made a fortune!

Before leaving, he not only packed up everything he could take away, but also got a few medical books from the pharmacist before killing him to silence him.

Even if you add it all up, I don’t know how much it’s worth!

In addition, it was difficult to deal with because there were too many corpses.

Chen Sanshi was worried that someone would notice the arrow wound, so he simply gathered them together in the yard and burned them.

He made such a fuss.

The martial arts school will definitely not dare to capture living people to test drugs anymore, which can be considered a good deed.

Chen Sanshi recalled what had just happened in his mind.

Linghe can actually improve one’s cultivation?
Could it be that the old emperor had really seen an immortal?

Is he really cultivating immortality?
How to use the fairy treasure, use special flames, and then brew spiritual herbs?
Chen Sanshi made all kinds of guesses.

In short, lamp oil plus spiritual herbs are equivalent to precious medicine for improving cultivation.

You can definitely go in this direction.

The matter came to an end.

And with Xiang Tingchun taking the initiative to take the blame, no one would suspect him.

Next, there is plenty of time to study slowly.

Chen Sanshi carried three or four sacks on his back and left Hutoushan in a hurry.

It was not convenient to take so many things back, so he hid them in an old house in Yanbian Village first, and then took a detour back to the military settlement of Qianhu Suo.

"Senior Sister Sun is not here?"

Chen Sanshi keenly noticed something unusual.

The room is empty!
He hurried back to his bedroom, and only breathed a sigh of relief after picking up a strand of hair from the crack in the door and the window.

Before departure.

He was careful and plucked a few strands of Lan Jie'er's hair to use as a mark.

It seems that he is overthinking.

Sun Li had no intention of monitoring him.

But where was she going so late at night?

Nine times out of ten, we have found clues related to Medicine Valley.

"Fortunately I got there first."

……

"Sister, it seems someone has been here before!"

Sun Buqi stood on the wall, looking at the raging fire in the yard and analyzing the situation calmly.

"Is there any need to say more?"

Sun Li looked at the cremation pit dug by the murderer and said, "This guy is still worried about causing a forest fire..."

"What a nice guy!"

Sun Buqi sighed.

Sun Li and Sun Buqi, one has been in the open and the other in the dark recently.

It took me a lot of effort to realize that the martial arts school disciples often go out of the city and go up the mountain, so I thought of coming over to check it out tonight.

I saw a fire nearby and rushed over to see this scene.

"Fight the fire, put out the fire!"

"..."

After the night watchmen of other nearby medicinal gardens discovered something unusual, they led their men and shouted as they rushed over here.

"Go back first."

Sun Li sighed faintly: "I'll check other medicine gardens another day."

……

The next day.

As soon as Chen Sanshi arrived at the military camp, he heard many people discussing this matter.

"Have you heard?"

"There was a fire at Erchong Mountain last night."

"When I was patrolling the city this morning, I saw with my own eyes that someone was carrying back several charred corpses from the mountain!"

"It seems that all the young masters of Tianyuan Martial Arts School were burned to death!"

"Why did a wildfire start out of nowhere?"

"It's obvious that someone did this on purpose."

"Who is so brave?"

"..."

After listening for a while, Chen Sanshi went to the martial arts field and gathered his men for daily training.

There were several people who, like before, were lazy and perfunctory when practicing the standing meditation.

"Are you Zhao Jin from Lizhuang?"

Chen Sanshi walked up to him and spoke in a calm tone.

"Yes! The general knows me?" The man was surprised.

"I recognize it." Chen Sanshi asked, "How is your training going?"

"It's okay, just too tired."

The man said with a grin, "It's much more tiring than farming."

"Then go back and farm."

Chen Sanshi suddenly said, "Xu Wencai, take him to collect the food and wages for the next few days."

"grown ups?!"

The sudden expulsion stunned not only the man but everyone present.

"That's right, I have something to tell you."

Chen Sanshi knew that he could no longer indulge them.

He took a deep breath and spoke in a loud voice: "I know that you came to me to join the army because I am from the countryside outside the county like you, and you think I will take care of you.

"Yes, of course I will take care of you!

“Here, I can’t guarantee anything else.

"I, Chen Sanshi, will never deduct a single grain of food or a single copper coin from you. For those who have talent, I will also do my best to teach you martial arts!
"but!
"I hope you can understand that this is the military, not a theater. Soon, one of you will die! Really!
"If you don't train well now, you will not only kill yourselves but also other brothers on the battlefield in the future!

“So, let me be frank up front.

“From today on, anyone who dares to be lazy and perfunctory will be like Zhao Jin, receiving their food and wages and going home to farm.

"I won't allow such black sheep to exist under my command!
"You guys, do you understand?"

After these words were spoken, the martial arts arena fell into complete silence.

The few people who had been lazy before all looked embarrassed.

"understood!"

After a long moment, they responded in unison.

Everyone actually admired the young man in front of them, but they were not yet used to practicing martial arts.

The decision to join the army was discussed by the villagers.

It would be a great shame for anyone to be driven away.

Chen Sanshi sighed in his heart.

He knew that he had to make an example of him.

Otherwise, there will always be people who take advantage of his friendliness and break the rules.

Like Zhao Jin just now, he didn't practice well since the first day of joining the army, and often instigated others to leave the camp and go home to rest secretly.

What's the point of keeping such a person?

"continue!"

Chen Sanshi gave an order.

The soldiers started practicing pole meditation again, each gritting their teeth and persevering, no one dared to be lazy anymore.

Just at this moment, the rich young man from yesterday walked towards this side.

Really on time.

……

Tianyuan Martial Arts School.

In the middle of the courtyard full of green plants, there were many charred corpses, all of which were black and hard, like matchsticks, and almost no human form could be seen.

“Which one…which one is Zhan’er!”

The eyes of the owner Liang Shengzhi were bloodshot, and he was on the verge of collapse: "Who! Who is so bold!"

He has four children, but only one son!
He ended up dying without a complete body.

The other two museum owners were also there.

"It seems that our affairs have been exposed."

Pan Quan was panicked: "But the strange thing is, why didn't anyone come to see us?"

Whoever discovered what happened in the mountains shouldn't have been so calm.

Recently, many people have been checking.

"My son!!!"

Liang Shengzhi was extremely sad. He carefully identified the bodies, trying to find out which one was his son. He was in no mood to listen to him.

Pan Quan looked to the side and said, "Uncle Zhao, who do you think is behind this?"

"If I remember correctly, Brother Liang's son and that old slave are both in the Bone Refining Stage, right?"

The owner of the Zhao family, who had been silent the whole time, said slowly, "With seven or eight true disciples guarding the medicine garden, not a single one escaped alive.

“It shows that the perpetrator is at an extraordinary level, and dealing with a bone-training warrior is like killing a chicken or a dog.

"Looking around Poyang County, who do you think can do this?"

"Xiang Tingchun!"

Pan Quan suddenly realized: "He must have discovered something and entered the Medicine Valley to spy on the secrets, hoping to keep the secret of the immortal treasure for himself!"

"Yes, that's right."

The owner of the Zhao family said confidently, "Otherwise, if the matter was exposed, how could no one question us? If it was Xiang Tingchun, it would make sense. The fairy treasure is in his hands, why would he be willing to expose the matter?"

"The surname Xiang is so vicious!"

Pan Quan cursed angrily, "Destroying the Song family is not enough. They are relying on their own internal organs and their leverage over us to devour us step by step and completely wipe us out!"

"Xiang Tingchun!"

Liang Shengzhi roared: "I will never coexist with you! Even if I become a ghost, I will die with you!!!"
