Shaolin Bajue

Chapter 1385 Midnight Ghost

The owner of the inn said: "After dark, everyone, please rest. No matter if you hear any movement on the street, please don't leave the inn to watch."

Ren Guzhou was surprised: "Why?"

The owner of the store showed a look of fear, and said: "This is for the good of all the guests. If you agree, I will arrange rooms for you immediately. If there is any need, it must be done before dark."

Fang Jianming was already full of doubts in his heart. Hearing what the shopkeeper said, he became more and more suspicious that there would be "strange things" happening. He was afraid that other people would embarrass the shopkeeper. Please stay for one night, even if the sky falls, my husband and I will not leave the room."

When he said this, Wen Xiuxiu, Tie Jingang, and Ren Guzhou also agreed to the owner's request.Because Wen Xiuxiu, Ren Guzhou, Zhang Daqian, and Ni Yuanchao didn't eat, Duyang shopkeeper got them some food and sent them to their respective rooms to enjoy.

Soon, the sun was setting and dusk fell, not to mention the shadows of people on the street, not even the shadow of a dog.The cold wind swept across the street, making a whining sound.It was a bitterly cold night, but also an extraordinary night.

At this time, in the guest room where Fang Jianming and Zhou Feng were, besides the two of them, there were Wen Xiuxiu, Zhu Qiyan and Zhang Daqian.Iron King Kong, Qiao Luocha and his wife, Ren Guzhou, and Ni Yuanchao stayed in their respective rooms.

Zhu Qiyan asked: "Sister Wen, where is Brother Li? Isn't he with you? Where did he go?" Her question was also what the other three wanted to ask.

Wen Xiuxiu said: "He has gone after someone."

Zhu Qiyan was startled, and asked in surprise, "Who is he chasing after?"

Wen Xiuxiu said: "When my humble husband and I first arrived outside the town, we found a mysterious person who was trying to kill a pair of riders. Because the distance was too far, we couldn't rescue them in time. After killing the rider, he sneered a few times, put the rider's body on the horse, and asked the two riders to turn back to the town. I discussed with the clumsy husband, and felt that something was wrong, so I had to pay attention, so the clumsy man followed Let him go after that person, and I will come into the town and tell the young master about it."

Zhu Qiyan was a little worried, and asked, "How is that man's martial arts?"

Wen Xiuxiu said with a smile; "Sister of the Zhu family, don't worry, the clumsy man's martial arts are far superior to him, let alone whether he has the ability to find out that the clumsy man is following, even if he finds out, the clumsy man will be the first to attack and kill him." He captured it and handed it over to the young master."

Hearing this, Zhang Daqian asked with a smile: "If brother Li turns around, how will he know which inn we are staying at?"

Wen Xiuxiu said with a smile: "I have left a unique mark outside the inn. When my humble husband sees him, he will know that we live here."

Zhou Feng suddenly said: "By the way, how far is it from Xiangyang City?"

Zhu Qiyan rushed to answer: "It should be between sixty and seventy miles."

Zhou Feng thought deeply on his face, and said slowly: "This matter is really weird. Ever since I entered the Xiangyang Prefecture, I always felt that the atmosphere was not right. Along the road, it was too desolate, and the further I went, the more uncomfortable it became. Judging from what I saw and heard today, there is a strangeness in everything. The restaurant closes early, there is a little twilight, there are no pedestrians on the street, and the owner even told us not to go out at night. Could there be What weird things can't happen?"

Fang Jianming said: "I think so too. I wanted to ask the shop owner, but you should be able to see that even if he was killed, he would not dare to talk nonsense."

Zhou Feng thought for a while, then looked at Zhu Qiyan.

Zhu Qiyan saw that she opened her mouth to speak, but she didn't say it because of her own relationship, so she couldn't help being a little anxious, and said: "Sister Zhou, just say what you have to say, don't worry about my feelings."

Zhou Fengdao: "Sister Zhu, I didn't want to talk about it at first, but this happened in Xiangyang Mansion. In my opinion, it has something to do with that Xiangyang Palace."

Zhu Qiyan fell silent after hearing this.

At this time, Fang Jianming suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Li is back."

Although Wen Xiuxiu hadn't heard anything yet, but hearing Fang Jianming's words, she knew there would be no falsehood, so she went up and opened the door.Under the night, a figure cut through the sky and landed in the courtyard instantly.

Wen Xiuxiu beckoned to the person who came, the person turned around, went to the door, and entered the room with Wen Xiuxiu.It was indeed Li Ziqing who came.Wen Xiuxiu did not avoid suspicion, she gently tidied Li Ziqing's clothes, and then said, "Drink some tea first, and I'll get you some food." After finishing speaking, she left the room.

Not long after, Wen Xiuxiu came in with the food. Seeing that the food was hot, Zhou Feng couldn't help laughing and said, "Sister Wen, how did you persuade the owner to start the fire?"

Wen Xiuxiu smiled and said: "I need to talk to him. Now in this inn, except for us, everyone else has been put to bed by me. I'm afraid they won't wake up until dawn."

After eating half a bowl of rice, Li Ziqing said: "I have already found out that the person I am following is from Xiangyang Palace."

Zhu Qiyan let out an "ah" and said, "Brother Li, did you read that right?"

Li Ziqing said: "You should be right. After I followed that man into Xiangyang City, he didn't go anywhere else. He just went to Xiangyang Prince's Mansion. He talked to a man who looked like a housekeeper in front of the mansion before we went together." Enter the palace."

After hearing this, Zhang Daqian sighed and said: "We have all heard about the great change in Xiangyang King's temperament in recent years, but no matter what, I have some doubts in my heart. I saw it in person today, and I know that it is absolutely true." It's not out of nowhere."

Fang Jianming said: "I heard Uncle Qingfeng and Uncle Qingyun say that when they were investigating a secret matter, they found that there were many masters in the Xiangyang Palace, which was unusual. Earlier, I also competed with the masters of the Xiangyang Palace, and I know it's not Waiting for you. The strange thing is that Hongye Daoist has contacts with these masters of the Xiangyang Palace, and has the identity of a special envoy. Earlier, the brothers of the Zhao family, that is, the two men who were killed by Sister Wen just now, He was killed by a broken heart, which reminded me of a kind of martial art called "Heartbreaking Yin Sha Gong". Because sister Zhu is here, and I have never fought against the murderer, it is inconvenient to speak. Now I listen to Li Big brother said so, the matter finally has some clues. This matter is inseparable from the Xiangyang Palace."

Zhu Qiyan said: "Brother Fang, I understand your kindness in my heart. I don't have anything to think about now. If my fifth uncle colluded with the treacherous gangsters and tried to do something wrong, I would take him down with my own hands." .”

Zhou Feng guessed: "Could it be that Zhengtianjiao is the mastermind behind the scenes?" But after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "If that's the case, this is too unlike Dugu Jiutian's style. He will soon become the leader of the martial arts alliance. The people to be dealt with are those who don't obey his orders, and it will never cause chaos in Xiangyang and the people are afraid."

While everyone was discussing, they suddenly heard a strange cry.Not long after, the strange cry was getting closer and closer, as if thousands of ghosts and wild ghosts were howling. If they were not all martial arts practitioners, they would have already broken out in a cold sweat.After Ren Guzhou, Ni Yuanchao, Tie Jingang Qiao Luocha and his wife heard it in their own room, they all rushed to this room.

Fang Jianming pondered for a while, then waved his hand violently, and said, "Come on, let's go out and have a look. Hmph, even if the ghosts are really here, we have to fight them."
