Chapter 61 The Thief
"What?" Lu Gang was stunned and didn't react to what Song Changming meant.

In the deserted alley, the man walked halfway and suddenly stopped and looked forward.

At the other corner of the alley, accompanied by a flurry of footsteps, Lu Gang and several patrol guards came out and blocked the way.

"Who are you? Tell me your name." Lu Gang asked in a deep voice as he approached the man.

"Looking for death!" Under the bamboo hat, the man had a ferocious look on his face and flew towards Lu Gang without saying a word.

Lu Gang was shocked by this man's ruthlessness, and even more shocked by the speed at which he exploded, which was so fast.

In the blink of an eye, the other party pounced in front of him.

Lu Gang decisively drew his sword and chopped, but the opponent stopped and jumped up instantly, easily avoiding the long sword in Lu Gang's hand.

When he raised his hand, two long sharp iron claws appeared from his sleeves and grabbed Lu Gang's head fiercely.

Lu Gang used his sword to block the pair of iron claws, but was kicked in the chest by the opponent's feet, forcing him to retreat several steps.

Looking at the ape-like guy in front of him and the sharp iron claws, Lu Gang had an impression in his mind.

It is rare to find someone in the martial arts world who uses iron claws as a handy weapon.

"Night-walking ghost, Sun Meng!" Lu Gang revealed the other party's identity.

This guy was a big thief on the government's wanted list. If he remembered correctly, the reward for this person was as high as three thousand silver!

This is not a small amount.

It's because this guy was so rampant, not only stealing, but also rape and looting.

A complete villain.

Previously, patrol stations in other districts had reported that they had discovered the thief's whereabouts.

Now it has spread to their Houli Street.

"Prepare to die!" Sun Meng laughed strangely, his voice shrill.

After repelling Lu Gang, he flipped backwards, put one foot on the alley wall, and rushed towards Lu Gang again.

Lu Gang shouted loudly, raised his sword and swung it in a circle, displaying his sword skills and slashing forward heavily.

As a patrol chief, his skills were not bad, but facing the thief with a bounty worth three thousand silver coins, he was still powerless.

Several attacks were blocked and the long sword was knocked away by the opponent.

Lu Gang was shocked and immediately drew out the second sword from his waist to save his life, shouting as he retreated repeatedly.

"Eternal Light!"

A flash of cold light flashed across the wall, instantly blocking Sun Meng's life-and-death pursuit.

Just before Lu Gang asked for help, Song Changming had already taken action in time.

In fact, if Lu Gang had not wanted to try out his improved sword skills and asked Song Changming to support him in advance, he would not have waited until now to take action.

"Huh!" Sun Meng glanced at the person coming over and saw that he was a rather young patrol captain.

Without thinking too much, he twisted his iron claws and tried to repeat the same trick to knock the long sword in front of him away.

However, the long sword spun and the blade actually pecked his wrist, causing blood to flow.

His expression changed immediately, realizing that the young patrol captain in front of him was a bit difficult to deal with, and he wanted to retreat quickly.

However, Song Changming did not want to miss this opportunity, so he held the sword tightly and followed up with his light body skills.

The soul-breaking sword of the perfect realm pointed directly at the opponent's head. Sun Meng felt the fierce wind whistling and shouted, "Ghost Sword Sect! Are you the heir of the Ghost Sword Sect?!"

He recognized the sword skills that Song Changming performed, but then he discovered that Song Changming's light body skills did not belong to the Ghost Sword School, and he was not an orthodox descendant of the Ghost Sword School.

It’s just that this person’s martial arts training was too diverse.

But since he is not an orthodox descendant of the Ghost Sword Sect, how come he was able to practice the sword skills to perfection?

Sun Meng was confused, but he had no time to think about it. The two of them started a fierce fight in this narrow alley.

Sun Meng wanted to retreat, but Song Changming followed him like a shadow.

A heavy blow came with great force. Even though Sun Meng used his arms and iron claws to block, he was still pressed by the force of the knife and could not straighten his back or breathe.

The blade swept across, leaving a bloody mark on his thin and sunken cheek, almost killing him.

Just when Song Changming was about to strike him again with the sword to injure him severely, a mechanism was triggered on Sun Meng's iron claw, and two copper needles suddenly shot out and pierced Song Changming's face.

In close combat, and with such sudden warning, this hidden weapon was extremely deadly.

Sun Meng used this skill to kill many enemies who were stronger than him.

I thought this time it was a sure win, but I didn't expect Song Changming to react so quickly. He twisted the long sword in his hand forcefully, drew a semicircle in the air, and knocked the two copper needles away with the blade with incredible dexterity.

Seeing this, Sun Meng lost all his will to fight. He rushed out, using his hands and feet to climb over the alley wall to escape.

He was very confident in his light-body skills. As long as he could leave this narrow alley, the patrol guards would not be able to find him.

However, Song Changming's long sword flew out of his hand and accurately nailed Sun Meng's left leg to the wall!
This knife-throwing move is also one of the Feiyan style moves, including the previous move of blocking the copper needle, which also comes from the Feiyan style.

After reaching the minor success stage, he could use these sword techniques with great ease.

Sun Meng lay on the wall and wailed. He never expected that he would be caught so easily today.

And he was defeated by an unknown kid.

In the end, he was wrong. If he had wanted to run from the beginning, this group of people would never have been able to catch him.

Song Changming stepped forward and drew out his bloody sword, while patrol guards such as Lu Gang put handcuffs on Sun Meng, who had already lost his resistance. This marked a successful arrest.

"You are amazing, Changming. In the time it takes to have a meal, you have achieved another great achievement!" Lu Gang was very happy after confirming the bounty identity of Sun Meng, the Night Walker.

Although he didn't help much throughout the process, he still got some credit.

He understood that Song Changming was not someone who would take all the credit.

"It's just a coincidence." Song Changming smiled faintly and wiped the blood on his knife onto Sun Meng's clothes.

"In addition, if I remember correctly, this guy is worth three thousand silver coins!" Lu Gang continued.

When Song Changming heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

For him, this is also a huge sum of money that cannot be ignored!
Even if according to the rules, some of the profits would be shared by his superiors Liang Chuanshan, Lu Gang and others, the bulk of it would still be his!

Before, he was worried about not being able to spend money, but now he has received new money.

It has to be said that sometimes when one is lucky enough to come across a wanted criminal with a high bounty, the bounty alone would be enough to cover his salary as a patrol chief for several years!

However, normally speaking, it is almost impossible for a patrol chief in an ordinary urban area to catch a wanted criminal with a high bounty of this level.

Lu Gang’s previous case was the best example. If Song Changming had not taken action, let alone the bounty, he might even lose his life if he had tracked down the person alone.

Even if Song Changming had not practiced the Flying Swallow Style to a minor level of success, he might not have been able to catch this cunning night ghost at the last moment, and might even have died from the opponent's sneak attack with copper needles.

It is said that wealth and honor are sought in danger. If you can get them, you will have them. If you can't get them, you will be dead.
