Seeing Si Kou Yang's face full of surprise and renewed interest, Zuo Sheng felt his teeth itching with hatred.
If this fat man wasn't his master, he would have strangled him to death!

Chapter 172 Blackmail
Lijiang City, Yongtongfang.
It was the middle of the night, when everyone was asleep.
Twelve men in black rushed into an alley silently like ghosts.
These people said nothing. Ten of them spread out and silently surrounded a yard.
The next moment, the remaining two people quickly climbed over the wall and landed silently.
Then, like a cheetah, he suddenly pushed off the ground and rushed into the room.
boom!
The doors and windows shattered instantly.
There was a burst of crackling sounds.
Not long after, Jin Wuduan and Si Kouyang walked out of the room with grim expressions.
"I've been cheated!" Si Kouyang was annoyed.
"He must have run away." Jin Wuduan seemed to be thinking, "The window is open, but the air in the room is a little turbid."
"It means that the person left not long ago."
Si Kouyang frowned immediately: "Could it be that someone leaked the news?"
Zuo Sheng's scalp tingled, and he immediately spoke calmly: "Cheng Yi is cunning and ruthless. He was sold out once, so it's unlikely that he would be sold out by the same person a second time."
"Maybe there are some countermeasures."
Si Kouyang nodded in realization: "To harm Yu'er and Qing'er, he must be sinister and vicious. It is reasonable for me to be on guard."
"What a waste of a Thousand Machine Order."
"Leave two people to keep an eye on it, and the others can go back. We can't delay tomorrow's investigation."
Zuo Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and clasped his fists in agreement.
A group of people came and left quickly, disappearing quickly into the night.
……
On the roof, Chen Mu squatted in a cloud of black smoke, holding a small piece of paper in his hand, watching the group of people leave quietly.
"What kind of unprovoked disaster is this?!"
"Why did you come to me looking for sincerity?"
And this little note.
Just now, someone threw this thing into his room, reminding him to run away.
"Zuo Sheng?"
He remembered that when he was in Qingshan County, Zuo Sheng had joined forces with Cheng Yi.
"We can't stay here anymore."
……
Two hours later, a man in black casually crushed the stalker's neck and jumped into Chen Mu's courtyard.
"Run away early? What a pity." Wu Yin shook his head coldly.
After thinking for a while, he shook his head and laughed: "Then let's play slowly!"
Wu Yin took out a thumb-sized, drop-shaped bronze object from his sleeve and placed it in his palm to feel it carefully.
"The Wuxin Bell is still here?" Wu Yin raised his eyebrows.
"Now that you guessed it was me, you don't even want the Wuxin Bell anymore? Junior Brother, you are so decisive!" Wu Yin snorted coldly.
Then he held the water-drop copper piece in one hand and kept searching in the room and yard.
"Is your perception still so weak? Is it buried underground?" Wu Yin lowered his head and frowned slightly.
"Let's find someone to dig it out in a few days." Wu Yin shook his head.
Now that the two outside are dead, the Jinghong Gang will not let this place go anytime soon. We have to wait until things calm down.
"After many twists and turns, the Heartless Bell finally fell into my hands." Wu Yin sighed: "Brother, how did you die?"
"Without the Wuxin Bell, there will be no way to find this little thing in the future."
Wu Yin shook his head, feeling a little bored for a moment.
Not long after, he turned around and climbed over the courtyard wall, and disappeared after a few jumps.
……
On the roof, Chen Mu, still squatting in the black smoke, looked at Wu Yin's back.
"It's the old man with the fat grandson." Chen Mu recognized the other person's identity.
"I escaped the search of Thousand Machine Orders, but failed to escape the Heartless Bell." Chen Mu looked at the copper bell in the Five Ghosts Bag and thought helplessly.
"Is this person also related to Qingfeng Temple?" Chen Mu couldn't help but narrow his eyes: "It seems that he is sincere to me."
"Sincerity can cause great harm to people!" Chen Mu shook his head regretfully, wondering why he didn't try harder to kill him at the beginning.
"With this old man thinking about me, I can't stay in the city anymore." Chen Mu sighed.
"Fortunately, all the supplies are ready." He shrugged and said nonchalantly: "It's not like I haven't been in the wild before."
With the Five Ghost Bags, life becomes convenient; with the Soul-Fixing Post, insects and beasts are driven away; and there is no one to disturb you in the wild, which may make life more comfortable.
"I just met him once and I was targeted by this old man. It's my bad luck." Chen Mu thought helplessly.
He is so good at using a knife to kill someone, he is also an old hand.
"If I can't provoke you, can't I just hide from you?"
……
Lijiang City, Anshunfang in the east of the city.
Wu Yin got up early and helped his grandson get dressed and wash.
"Fatty, play by yourself for a while. I'll go cook." Wu Yin looked doting.
This was the Taoist boy he had finally found after traveling all over Daliang. He adopted him as his grandson when he was born, and raised him like his own grandson since he was young, treating him like a precious child.
After settling her grandson to bed, she went straight into the kitchen to make breakfast.
Not long after, he walked into the room carrying a tray.
But he found that his grandson was eating a fresh meat pie in each hand happily.
Wu Yin's pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart was filled with turmoil.
"Where's the pie?!"
"Someone has been here!"
"Exposed?!"
He was able to enter the room and place the pie silently without letting me know. This kind of strength...
"Isn't this sincerity?" Wu Yin felt absurd.
How could he have such strength? !
"Are you here to take revenge on me?" Wu Yin smiled bitterly.
"Grandpa, an uncle just said that we should go to Lijiang Tower for dinner. Do you want to go?" The little fat boy said indistinctly with a pie in his mouth.
Wu Yin's heart skipped a beat.
He had the urge to run away with his grandson.
But he immediately forced himself to calm down and said with a wry smile: "Go."
I'm afraid I've been targeted by someone with sincerity, so I have to go whether I want to or not.
"Senior brother, you really taught a good disciple!" Wu Yin thought hatefully.
……
Noon, Lijiang Tower.
There was a square table next to the kitchen passage, filled with food.
A little fat boy was holding a bright red pig's trotter and gnawing on it until his mouth was full of oil.
Chen Mu looked at the little fat boy with a smile.
The other person's demeanor while eating made him think of the little Taoist boy Chengming whom he had not seen for a long time.
Ignoring the thin and dark old man who was staring at him, Chen Mu kept picking up food for the little fat boy.
"Master Chengyi, your disguise technique is indeed interesting." Wu Yin sneered, "But using my grandson to threaten me is meaningless."
Chen Mu was stunned. Does this mean he is sincere?
Nephew? Is this old man a sincere uncle?
He did not argue, and said cheerfully: "I think it's interesting."
Wu Yin's face darkened: "Tell me, what do you want?"
"I was almost caught last night. Is it too much to give me five thousand taels of silver as compensation for my mental damages?"
"Okay!" Wu Yin's face was calm.
Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat. It was going to be less!
"I was wrong, it's fifty thousand taels." Chen Mu said indifferently.
