Chapter 244

Since Purdue Cihang’s murder of Fu Tianchou of the Ministry of War was stopped by Lin Baixuan, Zuo Zixiong, the Qishaxing star, walked far and wide with a long knife on his back.

On this day, when he came to Daxing County, two little beggars sprang up from the side of the road, hugging his legs and crying, calling Uncle for help.

Seeing these two children look like this, Zuo Zixiong lifted them up to comfort them. But a group of big guys rushed over with their weapons panting.

The first one was tall and majestic, but with a hostile spirit, he ran to the front, reached out his hand and pointed at Zuo Zixiong, and said angrily: “How dare you to run away after hurting our people? Obediently take our two Hand it over, little bunny! We can spare you a dog’s life!”

When the man yelled, the two children were shocked and trembling, they knelt down together with a thump, and kept kowtow to Zuo Zixiong.

The brawny man’s eyes widened, and he drew his whip, but Zuo Zixiong grabbed the whip.

Murderous intent flashed in his eyes, his left hand tightly grasped the whip, and his right hand took off the long knife. He said sternly: “Uncle is standing here, see who of you dares to touch the hair of these two children!”

This group of men just appeared on the street when the huge market suddenly became empty.

The doors of each store were closed forcibly, and both the people who were selecting goods and the shopkeepers who were trying hard to sell them all hid in the house, looking out from the gaps in the doors and windows in horror.

At the market, there were only dozens of powerful men holding weapons and Zuo Zixiong. In addition, there were only two children who were so scared and crying.

Seeing this situation, why doesn’t Zuo Zixiong know what’s going on? Simply let go of his hands and feet, and the blood flowed into a river. The dozens of piled corpses were daunting, and the eyes of a few corpses who had not yet closed their eyes were empty, as if they were accusing such a cruel and inhuman behavior.

The small door of a shop behind him opened gently, and a person crept up to him.

“Shopkeeper, what’s the matter?”

Zuo Zixiong glanced at the old man whose face was flushed with anxiety and was constantly rubbing his hands, a little surprised in his heart.

“Master, you have caused a big disaster, listen to the old man’s words, before they come, you go quickly!”

“Oh?” Zuo Zixiong smiled. “Old man, do you know what else?”

The old man of the shop sighed and said with a wry smile: “The old man has lived here for thirty or forty years, how can he not know the origin of this group of people?”

He hesitated for a moment, and still whispered: “About three or four years ago, a group of people came here. On the surface they were working as a nursing home for a large firm, but in fact they were collecting protection fees in the city. Since then, The little beggars in this city have become more inexplicable. Not only these two children, but also those with broken hands and feet, those with pus on their bodies, and those who are deaf and dumb…the slightly more prosperous streets of Daxing City have these. The figure of a beggar.”

“It’s strange to say that the old man has lived in this city for so many years. It stands to reason that even if there is no name for what kind of children there are, the old man should always have a familiar face. But these dozens of children , The old man didn’t know anyone.”

“It’s not that no one wanted to take care of it before. Someone used to take care of it. About half a year ago, two officials came to Daxing City and saw that these little beggars were a little strange, and they took one away. The kid was killed in a sneak attack at the inn, and the child was also chopped off an arm and died within a few days.”

Zuo Zixiong seemed to understand something, and asked in a deep voice, “What about the magistrate? Didn’t he come to ask?”

“The magistrate?” The old man shook his head and smiled bitterly. “Our magistrate, as long as the money is in place, he will naturally pretend to be deaf and dumb and ignore…”

Hearing this, Zuo Zixiong had already sneered again and again.

“Is it another collusion between officials and businessmen?”

He thought for a moment and asked, “Old man, do you know where these wicked people live?”

After asking the way, Zuo Zixiong handed the two children to the old man to hide, and walked straight to the south of the city.

In the southern outskirts of the city, there is a large courtyard covered by green plants, with red walls and yellow tiles, magnificent. There was no sign of a pedestrian in the surrounding area.

The door was closed tightly, and two guards holding knives were leaning on the doorpost and chatting with ease. The top of the red vermilion lacquered door was hung with a black gold nanmu plaque on which was inscribed three characters “Taipingzhuang.”

Zuo Zixiong only glanced from a distance, and then walked around to the side of the courtyard. Not far away, at the corner of the Zhuangyuan, there is an ancient clumsy tree, leaning against the bluestone courtyard wall, just covering the wall in a piece of verdant green.

Under the cover of the row of houses, Zuo Zixiong leaped into the yard and searched quickly. After looking at the houses, he found nothing.

“Isn’t it here?”

According to his experience, what happened to the two children was that some traffickers organized and trafficked a group of children, relying on begging to make money for the traffickers.

Zuo Zixiong hesitated for a while, looked up at the sky, and couldn’t help but move in his heart.

“Now it’s almost time for dinner, maybe the kitchen will have some clues.”

In such a village, the kitchen is the best place to find. Watching the smoke rising from the roof, the experienced Zuo Zixiong of Rivers and Lakes quickly determined the location.

Following the servant who was carrying the wooden barrel full of food, he came all the way to a big house, and saw the servant press on the wall, and a circular slate slowly descended, revealing a black lacquered passage.

The cave was very steep and long, and there was a chill. Zuo Zixiong took advantage of the light from the torch on the wall and walked along the long and narrow passage, winding for a moment, suddenly enlightened in front of him. I saw that the hall with a radius of several hundred meters was divided into dozens of small rooms, and countless torches were shining brightly like daylight.



There are many large urns in large and small rooms.

“What is this?”

The strong smell of medicine reminded him of something, and when he was approaching a room, Zuo Zixiong quickly glanced inside.

Just a glance made his whole body blood almost clot.

The urn closest to him was filled with rich black concoction, and in the concoction, a white and tender child about two or three years old was soaked in it. His eyes were closed tightly, as if he was dead.

There are a total of six large urns in this room, containing six children.

“What the hell is this doing?” Zuo Zixiong was shocked and angry in his heart, forced himself to suppress the extreme anxiety in his heart, and quietly followed the servant to move on.

The farther you go, the smaller the baby is. After four or five rooms, he is already a newborn baby.

In the last room, there are a total of fourteen large urns. A hungrily man stood in the room, looked at the unconscious babies, and laughed: “With these babies, my Cultivation Technique can finally become a big success!”
