Chapter 1 Murder and silence

In late autumn, it was not yet dawn, and the thick fog showed no signs of dissipation.

In the slum, in a dilapidated cottage, except for a wooden bed, there is only a wooden basin of clear water left.

The bitter cold wind rushed in unscrupulously from outside the window, making the thin young man on the bed shiver even more.

The thin young man trembled and got up from the ragbed bed and complained: "I can't fall asleep at all. I had known that I could stay in the arsenal, at least it wasn't cold there. It was really a life-threatening suffering."

At this time, the thin young man not only felt cold, but also felt hungry. He could not resist it when lying on the bed. He had to get up and bury his head in front of the basin of clear water, and drank in a gulp, gurgle.

He barely stopped hunger with clear water, but the thin young man felt even colder.

The cold wind blew everywhere. If you stay here for a while, you will definitely be frozen. The thin young man decided to go to the arsenal now.

It was just dawn and the fog had not yet dissipated. The thin young man pushed open the door in the cold wind, hugged his hands tightly, and began to run on the messy streets in the slums to warm up.

The thin young man was named Xia Xiaoyuan. He was a servant in the first family in the Shang Dynasty, Yunyang Province. He started to follow his father Xia Dayuan at the age of six to clean, organize and repair the old weapons warehouse in the Luo family's outer courtyard.

Three years ago, after his father passed away, Xia Xiaoyuan began to carry out related work independently in the arsenal.

Xia Xiaoyuan braved the cold wind and traveled through most of the city to the side door of the outer courtyard of the Yunyang Luo family in the center of the city.

After greeting the guard guard who had been familiar with him but hated him very much, Xia Xiaoyuan stepped into the outer courtyard and opened the thick gate of the arsenal.

The old weapons warehouse is full of these guards. After the guards have used them for a long time, they have become old and damaged weapons. Xia Xiaoyuan did not start his own work immediately, but instead found a clean green stick from it and danced it casually on the open space of the warehouse.

Xia Xiaoyuan, who had not practiced anyway, looked very messy during the dance process and his body was shaking, as if he would fall down at any time. However, the green wooden stick in his hand was like an arm using his fingers, constantly launching sharp attacks from various tricky angles.

After a while, Xia Xiaoyuan replaced the green stick in his hand with a long-handled sword. When he waved it, his footwork and body movement were still extremely clumsy, but the sword force made the tiger look windy, looking cold and extremely powerful.

When the sun shone into the tall wall, Xia Xiaoyuan had already played with more than ten weapons such as green wooden sticks, long-handled swords, long swords, and big axes. He was sweating all over and could no longer feel a trace of chill.

Xia Xiaoyuan ignored the sweat flowing from his face and body, but instead squatted on the stool and started his work today.

"Dangdangdang!"

When the bell rang, Xia Xiaoyuan put down his work and lined up to get a bowl of steaming soup.

There is no minced meat in the vegetable soup. Apart from wild vegetables, there are only a few spots of oil beads floating on the soup skin.

"This day is so stingy. In such a cold day, I don't want to put more meat and oil!" Even though I was scolding, Xia Xiaoyuan, who had been hungry for a long time, greedily swallowed the bowl of vegetable soup.

After licking the last drop of the soup in the bowl, Xia Xiaoyuan did not look at the mates around him who were chatting, slowly chewing meat patties and drinking vegetable soup, but instead went to the arsenal without looking back and continued to work.

The Luo family is the first family in Yunyang Province. In fact, they are very generous in dealing with mates. A mate who works for all year round, like Xia Xiaoyuan, has good living benefits. They offer three meals a day, all with meat for all three meals, and also provide quite good accommodation. In addition, there are also money to receive every month.

But unlike others, Xia Xiaoyuan specifically asked to cancel his meat and arranged accommodation, but instead exchanged all of them for money to distribute them to him.

Because Xia Xiaoyuan has a dream!

That is to save money very hard. At the age of twenty, you can buy a lowest-level weapon, thereby gaining the qualification to practice and changing your destiny!

Although he couldn't eat three meals a day, even though he was ragged all year round, and even lived in a slum that could not shelter from wind and rain, Xia Xiaoyuan did not feel bitter, and even felt it was meaningful, hopeful, and pursuit!

For this dream, even if Xia Xiaoyuan endures cold and goes hungry, he feels it worth it!

At dusk, Xia Xiaoyuan, who had completed his work today, did not return to the slum after dinner, but closed the gate of the arsenal, hid in a hidden corner, counted his savings carefully, and confirmed that before he was twenty years old, he could save enough money to buy a low-grade strange weapon.

Putting the deposit back to its original position, Xia Xiaoyuan climbed to the highest level of weapons accumulation for rest with a satisfied smile.

Because she lacked enough sleep last night, Xia Xiaoyuan quickly fell asleep.

I don’t know how long I slept, but the confused Xia Xiaoyuan was awakened by a low and pleasant moan.

Xia Xiaoyuan looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was the second manager of the outer court and the second wife of the former court who was naked, walking on the wooden cabinet below.

Fearing that the two of them were discovered, Xia Xiaoyuan had to bury his head, crawl on it, and silently prayed in his heart that he would not be discovered.

However, things went against my wishes. Xia Xiaoyuan sadly discovered through the gap that the second manager and the second wife were constantly changing their postures on the wooden cabinet, and the vibration amplitude became larger and larger.

"Don't use any more force, otherwise, the accumulated weapons will collapse!" Xia Xiaoyuan muttered in a low voice amid the moans of the two.

Just as Xia Xiaoyuan expected, when the second manager placed the second wife flat on the wooden cabinet and sprinted, the increasingly powerful vibration finally knocked down the accumulated weapons.

Amid the terrified shouts of the second manager and the second wife, Xia Xiaoyuan rolled in front of them like a gourd.

In this case, Xia Xiaoyuan had a sudden inspiration and said while getting up: "Hey, it's dark? The light is so dark that I can't see anything. I even fell down when I sleep. Oh, go home first and come to sort it out tomorrow!"

After saying that, Xia Xiaoyuan stretched out his hands and touched them in front of him, pretending to be unable to see the way under his feet, and deliberately tripped to the ground by weapons on the ground!

The second manager and the second wife stopped screaming when they saw Xia Xiaoyuan. At this time, they heard Xia Xiaoyuan talking to each other and looked at each other, obviously not believing in his words!

It was not dark yet, and the light in the arsenal was not as good as not to see the five fingers. Xia Xiaoyuan's refusal directly made the second housekeeper and the second wife understand their current situation!

The second wife sternly said: "We must not let him go, otherwise he will tell Luo An and we will both die!"

"What should I do?" The second manager stared at Xia Xiaoyuan's back and said coldly.

The second wife gritted her teeth and said, "Only dead people will not inform you!"

"I saw nothing, heard nothing, and could not say anything!" Xia Xiaoyuan quickly turned around and said in a panic.

The second manager no longer paid attention to Xia Xiaoyuan's current words, but picked up a sharp sword with cold light and approached him with great strides.

It seems that the second manager decided to kill him to silence him. Xia Xiaoyuan no longer had the mentality of being lucky, but instead plucked up his courage and picked up a spear to resist the upcoming attack!

"call!"

The Hanguang Sword slashed from top to bottom towards Xia Xiaoyuan's head with a sound of breaking through the air.

Xia Xiaoyuan had no combat experience at all. Without thinking, he held the spear in both hands to resist!

"Dong!"

Xia Xiaoyuan only felt a huge force transmitted from the spear body through his palm to his whole body. His body was unstable under the impact of this force and was directly knocked to the ground.

Xia Xiaoyuan got up with difficulty, feeling the severe pain in his hands. When he looked at it, he found that his hands were bursting and blood oozing out.

At this moment, the second manager with a ferocious face slashed another reverse horizontal slash from left to right!

The big sword flashing with cold light was so fast that it connected into a line, its power was even better than the attack just now!

Xia Xiaoyuan is only seventeen years old now. His long-term malnutrition has caused him to be short, weak in physique, and insufficient strength, so he cannot withstand such a strong attack.

"Fighting hard will only accelerate the defeat, and you must find another way!" The lesson of injury made Xia Xiaoyuan recognize his weaknesses, and at the same time understand his strengths, that is, using the familiar place of the arsenal and various weapons here!

Faced with the Lingli attack by the second housekeeper, Xia Xiaoyuan rolled away on the spot and no longer pursued the battle, but began to purposefully hide in a place with a lot of weapon racks.

At this time, the second manager, who was naked, began to chase and fight, just trying to kill Xia Xiaoyuan under the knife.

Seeing Xia Xiaoyuan running through the arsenal like a fish in water, the second manager could not kill him quickly. The second wife, who was also naked, didn't think too much about it. After all, when this matter was exposed, she would inevitably be threatened by life and death, so she also raised a dagger to intercept Xia Xiaoyuan!

When the second wife shook the two big breasts on her chest and appeared in front of her, Xia Xiaoyuan, who was blocked from her way forward, had to be forced to stop in place.

"You untouchable, don't blame your second grandma for being ruthless. If you want to blame, you can only blame your own life for being awkward. You know our secret!" After saying that, the second lady held a dagger in her hand and stabbed her quickly at Xia Xiaoyuan's face!

At this time, Xia Xiaoyuan felt extremely angry. He came to the Luo family to act as a servant, just to make money for his dream. It was not his wish to break through their evil deeds, but they forced themselves to kill and silence them!

Since you want me to die, you have to pay enough!

Xia Xiaoyuan grabbed a wooden shield on the weapon stand next to him to resist the attack from the second wife, and then threw the wooden shield towards her upper body, preventing her from launching a continuous attack!

At this time, the second manager's pursuit had arrived in front of him again, and Xia Xiaoyuan quickly pushed down the weapon frame to block it.

Just as the second manager was dodging, Xia Xiaoyuan took advantage of this gap and hooked his feet and kicked the spear on the ground into his hand. He stepped on his feet and arched his waist. Taking advantage of the momentum, the tip of the spear penetrated directly into the heart of the second wife!

Hearing the screams from the second wife, the second manager who rushed over was so angry that he screamed. The sword in his hand was even more powerful, and his strength and power were improved to varying degrees.

Xia Xiaoyuan was no longer timid. While avoiding, various heavy weapons such as hammers, axes, axes, maces were thrown towards the second housekeeper like hidden weapons!

Xia Xiaoyuan kept rotating heavy weapons in his hand, and his target was only one, which was to hit the blade of the big sword in the second manager's hand!

Xia Xiaoyuan, who has been working in the arsenal for many years, knows the weight, length, texture and other characteristics of these weapons. For example, the big knife in the second housekeeper's hand will definitely not resist continuous blows. As long as you are repeatedly hit about twenty times, it will break!

After throwing a sledgehammer and hitting the blade in the second manager's hand, Xia Xiaoyuan no longer escaped, but raised his axe to start fighting back!

The extremely angry manager, the second manager, didn't think much about it, and directly waved his knife to slash Xia Xiaoyuan's head.

"Clang!"

The axe that cut off the big knife did not stop the castration, and with Xia Xiaoyuan's strong belief, he hit the second manager's neck!

Blood spurted out and splashed everywhere!

After death, the adulterer and the adulterer was killed by himself.

Xia Xiaoyuan half leaned against the weapon stand and gasped heavily.

Before he could think about what he should do next, Xia Xiaoyuan only heard a heavy knock on the door outside, and at the same time, the captain of the guard shouted: "Who is inside, open the door quickly, otherwise we will break in!"

It seems that the shouts and fighting sounds in the arsenal eventually attracted the attention of the guards.

Xia Xiaoyuan shook his head unwillingly!

My dream has not been completed yet, and I must not die here now. It is not worth it to lose my life for these two bitches!

Hearing the knocking sounds outside, Xia Xiaoyuan tightened his axe and was no longer nervous, but was ready to break through the siege when the door broke.

"Bang!"
Chapter completed!
