Chapter 56 We Can’t Afford to Provoke

"Great Master!"

Miao Yuanzheng screamed in shock and rushed towards the wooden sedan with a knife.

The masked man had already completely entered the sedan chair.

Miao Yuanzheng knew that the Great Sage Master's life was in danger under the double attack of the powerful crossbow and the masked man, but he still wanted to fight for this chance of survival.

Sudden.

"Bang!!!"

A figure suddenly flew out of the sedan chair.

It was the masked man.

But... the masked man didn't run out by himself, but was knocked out by someone's punch!

"puff!"

The masked man was still flying backwards in the air when he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, soaking the black scarf covering his face.

Then he fell heavily to the ground.

Miao Yuanzheng only saw that his chest was sunken, and vaguely saw a fist mark.

next moment.

The curtain of the sedan chair was lifted and Liang Jin walked out.

His clothes had some tears, caused by the crossbow arrows.

And underneath the torn clothes, a faint metallic luster could be seen emanating.

The moment the sound of the crossbow arrow breaking through the air was heard, Liang Jin hurriedly protected his head, neck and other vital parts.

As for his body, he was not afraid at all because he was wearing soft armor.

The soft armor is invulnerable to swords and spears and can be called a treasure. It is much stronger than ordinary armor.

The crossbow's armor-piercing ability is considerable.

But what these men in black used were only ordinary hand crossbows, not large equipment such as the eight-ox crossbow and bed crossbow.

These ordinary crossbow arrows are simply unable to penetrate the soft hedgehog armor. Instead, most of the impact force will be absorbed by the soft hedgehog armor's ingenious design structure.

The strong body of a seventh-grade warrior is enough to withstand the remaining impact of the crossbow arrow.

As long as it is not a penetrating wound, it will not be fatal to Liang Jin.

After Liang Jin was attacked by a wave of crossbow arrows, he was about to fight back, but the masked man came in by himself.

This is seeking death!
The masked man's hand halberd was also unable to cause fatal injuries to Liang Jin.

But the close distance and narrow space in the sedan chair gave Liang Jin the opportunity to use his fists.

At that moment, Liang Jin exploded instantly, and the terrifying fighting spirit and murderous intent frightened the masked man who was caught off guard.

Followed by a punch!
He has practiced the "Great Demon Subduing Fist" to the ninth level!

With just one punch, the masked man's sternum was broken!

"The great and virtuous teacher is actually also a powerful warrior?"

Miao Yuanzheng was slightly stunned when he saw this.

It was the first time he saw Liang Jin take action, and the result surprised him.

Not only Miao Yuanzheng was surprised.

Even the men in black who were lying in ambush on the roof felt a surge of fear, so much so that they slowed down the process of loading their crossbows.

Liang Jin's eyes were filled with murderous intent as he looked at the men in black on the rooftops on both sides:

"One person on each side, clear out all these people."

As he spoke, he moved and landed lightly on the roof.

It seems slow, but it is actually very fast!
It was the use of "God's Movement and Change".

"What a light gong!"

Miao Yuanzheng was shocked again and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Even Miao Yuanzheng felt ashamed of himself when he saw Liang Jin's lightness skills.

While the men in black were staring in amazement, Liang Jin's fist had already smashed towards them.

Immediately, Miao Yuanzheng also jumped onto the roof on the other side and cleared out the men in black on the other side with a knife.

The men in black on the roof were just ninth-rank warriors. Under the attack of Liang Jin and Miao Yuanzheng, they didn't even have a chance to escape.

After a while, all the bodies of these black people rolled down from the roof.

Of the killers at the scene, the only one left was the masked man who had been punched and was still struggling on the ground.

When Liang Jin and Miao Yuanzheng came back to his side, he was still alive.

The masked man said unwillingly:
"I didn't expect that the Great Sage Master...is actually a hidden master."

"Are you seventh rank... or sixth rank?" "This time... we miscalculated."

As he spoke, the masked man spat out two more mouthfuls of blood.

The masked man himself is also a seventh-grade warrior and can fight back and forth with Miao Yuanzheng.

But Liang Jin punched him and seriously injured him.

This made the masked man completely unable to believe that Liang Jin was only a seventh-grade warrior.

But in Liang Jin's opinion, the masked man's momentum was far inferior to that of the swordsman.

Now if Liang Jin faces the swordsman again, he will have a 90% chance of winning.

It would naturally be easier to deal with this masked man.

Liang Jin was surprised when he first saw a swordsman kill a warrior of the same level with a single blow.

And now, he also enjoys the feeling of killing with one punch.

Although the masked man was not killed by his punch, he was seriously injured and lost the ability to resist, and his life was hanging by a thread.

Miao Yuanzheng stepped forward and pulled away the black scarf covering the masked man's face.

But what was revealed under the black scarf was a strange face. Neither Liang Jin nor Miao Yuanzheng had ever seen this person before.

"Say!"

"Who are you? Who sent you to assassinate me?"

Miao Yuanzheng put the knife to the masked man's throat and questioned him harshly.

But who would have thought that the masked man was not afraid at all, but just sneered:

"There are more than just these people coming here."

"There is another true fifth-grade expert who you can't fight against at all!"

"The master will avenge us!"

The masked man laughed twice, then gritted his teeth and charged towards Miao Yuanzheng's long sword.

Miao Yuanzheng was unable to retract his knife in time, and the masked man's throat was pierced by the long knife.

The masked man was choking on blood from his mouth and nose, and died after a few convulsions.

"Blame me, now the clue is broken."

Miao Yuanzheng said in annoyance.

If he hadn't put the long knife to the masked man's throat, the masked man would not have been able to commit suicide so easily.

As the saying goes, you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid of thieves missing you.

If we can't find out who's behind this, there will probably be more trouble in the future.

Liang Jin just said lightly:

"I don't have any enemies in Taiyang County."

"What you did was probably to cut off someone's source of income, which is why you attracted the killer."

"During the plague, what's going to increase in price the fastest and still be in short supply?"

Miao Yuanzheng thought for a moment and replied:
"It's medicinal materials!"

Ever since the plague broke out, there have been rumors every once in a while that a certain medicine is effective in curing the plague, causing people to rush to buy it.

This resulted in all the medicinal materials in Taiyang County being sold out, and even with money, one couldn't find where to buy them.

Miao Yuanzheng thought about this and suddenly understood.

Now Liang Jin is distributing talisman water on a large scale, which undoubtedly cuts off the source of income for the medicinal material merchants.

Cutting off someone's source of income is like killing their parents, so it's no wonder that it attracts killers.

Liang Jin asked again:

"The medicinal material merchants in Taiyang County don't have the energy to do such a thing."

"Who is the largest medicinal herb merchant in Qingzhou?"

These killers are well-trained and they even have so many crossbows that are hard to find on the market.

You have to know that crossbows were banned in the Daqian Dynasty, and most people would not have the courage to hide so many crossbows.

The first wave of killers were all warriors, some even seventh-grade warriors.

A medicinal herb merchant from a small county does not have such ability or courage.

Miao Yuanzheng was startled and replied:
"His name is Yang Jingye."

At this time, Miao Yuanzheng had basically determined in his mind that Yang Jingye was the most suspicious.

After all, he had heard a lot about Yang Jingye's style of doing things.

But he added:
"Great and virtuous teacher, we can't afford to offend him."
