Chapter 36 Watching from the shadows
Black Kill Pavilion acted swiftly; having received the money, they demonstrated their professionalism.
They compiled a list of everyone who had ever interacted with Li Feng, and after two days of screening and elimination, they had removed the vast majority of people.
Lu Chen's name also appeared on their list.
He was among the first to be excluded.
Later, after a follow-up examination, it was discovered that he had actually appeared in the Jade Pavilion that day.
Li Feng was also present at the time, and the two even had a brief conversation.
Lu Chen's private room was located directly below Li Feng's.
Lu Chen suddenly became much more suspicious.
How can someone who was beaten to the point of death recover so quickly?
Originally a poor boy, he now has money to go to a brothel and hire a masseuse.
They found the doctor who had treated Lu Chen, as well as Xiao Taohong and the madam who had served Lu Chen at the time, and asked them many questions in detail before finally putting Lu Chen's name on the last list.
There are three names on this, and one of them, which has been crossed out, is Zhao Defu.
The three names are Li Jun, Hu Bufan, and Lu Chen.
"This Lu Chen is interesting! He's not only involved in Li Feng's affair, but also connected to the Green Bamboo Gang! Tsk tsk! This guy definitely needs a thorough investigation; I hadn't noticed him before!"
The old farmer-like man was sitting in a small courtyard, looking at Lu Chen's information with great interest.
"Old Ning, how about we find a three-star iron-medal assassin to find out his capabilities?"
The Black Killing Pavilion has a complete promotion system, divided into Wood, Iron, Bronze, Silver and Gold. Wood is for ordinary people who are responsible for some odd jobs.
To advance from a Wooden Badge Assassin to a Zero-Star Iron Badge Assassin, all a Wooden Badge Assassin needs to do is complete a task equivalent to the strength of a Bronze-Skin Realm Assassin.
To upgrade from a zero-star to a one-star, you need to eliminate two Iron Bone Realm cultivators.
To advance from one star to two stars, one must eliminate three cultivators at the Refining Realm.
Following this logic, the Samsung Ironclad Killer needs to eliminate four Blood Exchange Realm cultivators.
A four-star assassin needs to eliminate five people at the Marrow Cleansing Realm.
A five-star assassin must kill at least ten people in the Marrow Cleansing Realm, and at least three of them must be at the peak of the Marrow Cleansing Realm.
Therefore, even though the three-star Iron-Rank Assassins are not high-ranking, they are at least at the Blood Exchange Realm level, and many of them are even at the Marrow Cleansing Realm level.
That should be enough to deal with someone like Lu Chen.
"No, let's find a four-star one, it'll be safer!"
The old farmer took a look at the four-star iron-rank assassins from the Black Kill Pavilion near Shahu County.
"Let's go with Broken Blade. He's closest and strong enough. Give him the mission: bring the person back alive today!"
"yes!"
……
This is the first time Lu Chen has lived a relatively comfortable life since he transmigrated here.
I teach literacy and arithmetic in the morning, practice exercises in the afternoon, and lead my younger siblings in practicing exercises in the evening. It's quite a pleasant experience.
Occasionally, I would go into the woods to hunt a few pheasants and doves to supplement my diet.
It's much more comfortable than before, when I would run to the county town every few days to kill people and cause trouble.
Yes, I do think of Xiao Taohong occasionally.
cough cough.
Don't get me wrong, I just think the food at Jade Pavilion is really delicious.
"I didn't need the medicinal herbs I scavenged before, and I also bought a lot of herbs needed for the 'Ox-Slicing Knife Technique'. Once Lu Ming and Lu Tang have mastered any of the techniques, I can teach them the 'Ox-Slicing Knife Technique'. With the help of medicinal baths, their progress should be much faster."
Lu Chen stood on the podium, looking at the thirty-four children below, feeling a great sense of accomplishment.
Thanks to the influence of his teachings, almost every one of these children became a genius, and their learning progressed at an astonishing pace.
Not only them, but the martial arts teaching and training in the afternoon also gave him a great sense of accomplishment.
Three people have already started learning!
One of them is Lu Ting. He is only thirty years old, in his prime, and a hunter. His family often eats meat, so his physical fitness is much stronger than others. With the help of Lu Chen's entry, he quickly mastered the Eight Directions Step and the Breaking Formation Spear.
The second is Teng Yue's son, Teng Feng, who is just twenty years old this year and has also mastered both martial arts techniques.
The third is Lu Huaiyi, who is one year younger than Lu Chen's father, Lu Hai. He is 35 years old this year and has only mastered the basics of the Breaking Formation Spear technique. His Eight Directions Footwork is still a bit lacking.
Apart from the three of them, the others have made considerable progress and have been inspired to compete. Lu Chen estimates that in the next few days, quite a few more people will break through to the next level.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen glanced at the students below and said, "Alright, go back and practice what I taught today a few more times. You can also ask each other questions..."
As he was talking, he suddenly felt as if someone was watching him, and he turned to look out the window.
no one.
He was somewhat puzzled, but after giving the students a few more instructions, he ended the class.
A group of children suddenly ran out of the school.
As Lu Chen packed his things, he secretly wondered to himself.
"Why does this feeling of being watched feel so strange?"
He had never had this strange feeling before, and looked at Lu Ming and Lu Tang who had not yet left.
"Xiao Ming, Xiao Tang, you two go hide behind the pillar in the back and secretly watch me."
Lu Ming and Lu Tang stared, mouths agape, a little puzzled. "Brother, do you want us to peek at you?"
"Um!"
The two quickly did as instructed, running to the back of the classroom, finding a pillar to hide behind, and then secretly peeking out to stare at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen lowered his head, not feeling that way.
Turning around with his back to Lu Tang and the others, he did feel a bit of being watched, but it wasn't that intense.
"Could it be that someone is really spying on me, and they must be quite powerful!"
His heart tightened immediately, and his hands, hidden under the table, clenched tightly.
However, he showed no sign of distress, and instead smiled and beckoned the two of them over: "Alright, it's nothing, go back now!"
The three closed the school door and walked down the road.
In the farmland by the roadside, the wind rustles through the rice paddies, and the golden rice exudes a fragrant aroma.
In a few more days, it will be ready for harvest.
Lu Chen glanced around discreetly a few times, but didn't notice anything.
Moreover, the feeling of being watched like a thorn in one's back has disappeared.
"Damn it, everyone's dead, how did they still manage to find me? And they even found me here!" He gritted his teeth, a sense of urgency in his voice. "This feeling of the enemy being in the dark while I'm in the light is unbearable!"
He is now experiencing firsthand what it's like to be part of the Green Bamboo Gang.
What goes around comes around!
Lu Chen chuckled inwardly. After carefully analyzing the situation, he felt that the only potential problem lay with Li Feng.
I was too hasty back then; I shouldn't have attacked Li Feng at that time.
After all, he had met Li Feng before, and Li Feng had even cursed at him. If someone were to investigate carefully, they might be able to find him by following this lead.
That's so careless!
He reflected on it silently.
Perhaps the stealth method from Assassin's Creed suits me better!
No need to use your brain.
He returned home quietly, ate his meal, but instead of continuing to teach, he went to his second grandfather's house.
"Second Grandfather, I have some business to attend to today and need to go to the county town. I'll still need to trouble you to take care of Xiaotang and Xiaoming. I should be back tomorrow. Things in the village are basically back on track now, and everyone is proficient in the Eight Directions Step and the Breaking Formation Spear. It won't be a problem if I leave for a day or two."
"Something wrong?" The second grandfather exhaled a puff of smoke, glanced at Lu Chen, and nodded. "Alright, Xiao Ming and Xiao Tang can stay with Wen Jin and the others tonight. I'll talk to the village officials. You... be careful!"
He patted Lu Chen on the shoulder.
Lu Chen grinned, turned around and smiled at Xiao Ming and Xiao Tang, whose faces were full of worry, before leaving Qingshan Village alone and walking out of the village.
He carried no knife, dressed in ordinary scholar's clothes, with only a dagger, ten throwing knives, a bag of iron pellets, and two bags of lime hidden on his person, and a breastplate that had been ordered beforehand hanging on his chest and back.
To lower the guard of any potential enemies, he also carried a book in his hand, pretending to be a scholar, as he walked towards the county town.
"Hey, I had already decided not to come to the county town anytime soon! Why do we have to fight and kill each other? Can't we all just live in peace?"
He was actually quite helpless.
