C1209 The Incident in the Former Liang City

Time: It was the 9th day of the 9th month of the Qing Country Calendar.

As the saying goes, the sun rises nine times, and friends and family return home. In this day's time, the citizens of the Qing Country must climb to the top and look into the distance. In this day's time, the tourists who were enjoying the chrysanthemum and drinking wine and adventuring outside... They would also choose to return to their hometown and reunite with their family.

On a street in the southern part of Qing Country called Former Liang City, because the customs of all places in Chongyang Town were different. As one of the few cities closest to the border of the Qing Country, this place was very different from the capital during the Chongyang Festival.

In the Imperial City, every time the Chongyang Festival arrived, people would drink rice wine and eat rice dumplings to celebrate. However, in the Qianliang City, this custom turned into sticking corns and drinking cold tea.

On the streets, the peddlers pushed carts filled with cold tea. The cold tea was brewed with various herbs, which could clear the heat and remove the fire. As the southern weather was hot and dry, cold tea was very popular here.

Among the households, the oldest or oldest person was either the eldest or the oldest. They would always take off the dried corns from a few months ago and distribute them to their children. This type of plant called coriander could not be considered a herb, but it was also not an ordinary weed. It could emit a unique fragrance that was not present in other things.

People were coming and going in the former Liang City, and it was a happy and harmonious place.

On the most bustling street in the city, this should have been the liveliest place in the city. However, there was a door that was exceptionally deserted. On the door hung a huge plaque with the words Jindao Escort Agency written on it. This was originally the largest Escort Office in the city, but more than a month ago, all the people in the Security Bureau had gone missing, and the only survivor was Darthead, who was still shooting outside. He was also the owner of this security bureau.

Darthead's name was Jiaang Jindao. He was an easy-going old man, although he would brag about his great achievements in the martial arts world to the children around him. If the children did not want to listen, he would buy some candy to entice them. From this old man, people could not see any killing intent that a bully in the martial world should have.

But since the incident a month ago, no one had seen this person again.

Today was the Chongyang Festival, and the streets were filled with people. Anyone in the city who knew that Jiaang Jindao was passing by this place... It was inevitable that they would take a closer look at this place. However, even though the streets were most familiar with Jiaang Jindao, he would often play chess with Uncle Sun, who always regretted playing the wrong chess game. He also did not go to knock on the door to express his condolences.

Such a matter was not a small matter. The disappearance of a family's wife, children, and children, such a blow could not be considered minor to anyone.

Time slowly came to noon. The door of Jindao's Escort Agency was suddenly opened. A thin and aged old man walked out from behind the door. He sat on the staircase that was sandwiched between two huge stone lions and didn't move at all.

"Jindao? He had not seen him for a few days. Today, Chongyang, do you want to come to sister-in-law's house to have a seat? Da Binzi brought the specialty rice wine from the north. My family's Old Yang was very enthusiastic when he drank it. I'm an old woman who doesn't know how to drink. Why don't you go and have a taste with him?" Seeing Jiaang Jindao appear, the aunt who lived next door to Jindao's Escort Office opened a stall and walked over. She said to him.

But when he walked in and saw Jiaang Jindao's face, he was shocked.

He saw Jiaang Jindao's unkempt hair and face. Perhaps it was because he was thin that both sides of his face had sunk deeply. The originally robust old Darthead now had loose skin and flesh on his body. He seldom looked as high-spirited as he used to be. Especially his pair of eyes...

Aunt had seen a lot of dead people at this age. Jiaang Jindao's eyes were cloudy and lifeless. Aunt's first reaction was to see dead people's eyes.

The aunt was shocked by Jiaang Jindao's appearance. She quickly went forward to check Jiaang Jindao's breath. After finding that everything was normal, she let out a sigh of relief. But she didn't say anything else. Something had happened to Jindao's bodyguard. Everyone in the former Liang City heard the news. This incident was too strange. Until now, no one knew how the people of Jindao's Security Bureau had disappeared.

Therefore, an astute person like the aunt naturally wouldn't expose Jiaang Jindao's scars.

Jiaang Jindao raised his cloudy eyes and looked at the aunty. He said to the aunty in a hoarse voice, "Okay."

In the stall of Yang family, there were not many people in the former Liang City. Plus, it was a frugal day, so there were no guests. It was only noon and the cloth stall was closed.

The manager of Yang family sat at the table and looked at his old friend. He couldn't help but feel shocked. He had never thought that this man, who was once one of the strongest men in the entire former Liang City, would... Now, he was so thin that he looked like this.

However, Jiaang Jindao acted as if he didn't see the gaze of the manager of the Yang family. He picked up the wine that was placed on the table and emptied a big bowl in one go.

"Jindao, drink slowly. This wine has a strong aftereffect. Later when you drink too much, sleep at my house. Don't blame me for not sending you home." The aunt had seen the shopkeeper drinking too much and saw Jiaang Jindao drinking too much. She couldn't help but comfort him.

Jiaang Jindao suddenly squatted down. The wine in his bowl had been drunk, but his hand holding the bowl was shaking as if he was holding a heavy object weighing thousands of kilograms.

The shopkeeper fiercely glared at the aunt. The aunt also curled her lips, knowing that she had said something wrong.

The bowl in Jiaang Jindao's hand fell to the ground. With a clear sound, the bowl shattered. And this old man from the north, who was much taller than others, actually cried on the table.

He cried silently, but his shoulders kept shaking. The fact that he could make this man, who was born strong, cry like this showed how deep the sorrow in his heart was.

Old Yang and his wife didn't say anything. They just quietly watched Jiaang Jindao sob silently.

At this moment, a loud noise came from outside the door. The ground was shaking violently. Even the racks in the room that were arranged with fabric fell down. Old Yang and his wife looked at each other and hurriedly walked out the door. However, Jiaang Jindao was still lying on the table, sobbing silently.

There were miserable screams coming from the pedestrians on the street outside the door. However, the two screams that were the closest to Jiaang Jindao belonged to Old Yang and his wife.0

Jiaang Jindao suddenly raised his head and looked outside the door. The door had opened at some point, but it was not a normal opening and closing. Instead, it seemed to have been violently destroyed.

At this moment, a round thing flew in from outside the door. It landed beside Jiaang Jindao's feet. Jiaang Jindao took a closer look and found that it was actually Old Yang's head. Furthermore, the wound on his neck was very disappointing. It was obvious that his head had been knocked down by someone. This made Jiaang Jindao, who was still immersed in grief, shiver and stand up immediately.
