Chapter 205 Murder in the rain

That night!

Under the darkness of night, the sky suddenly began to rain lightly.

The pattering rain shrouded the night, and outside Qingshui County, on the country road, several figures were hiding in the night, walking quickly.

On the official road ahead, there was a sound of horseshoes.

The continuous sound of horseshoes kicked up bursts of dirt on the official road.

On the horse's back, several figures stopped slowly.

"Thirty miles ahead, we will arrive at Qingshui County, right?"

On the back of a dark horse sat a man in his thirties, about 25 years old, with a dignified appearance and a rather cold temperament.

Let the light raindrops in the sky fall on your body, and don't care at all.

He glanced at a figure beside him who was running alongside him, and chuckled lightly: "Junior Sister, are you nervous?"

Sitting on the horse beside the man was a woman with exquisite appearance and a curvy figure, but with a cold expression.

She wore a black robe, looked at the dark direction not far ahead, and sneered: "Why am I nervous?"

The man sighed lightly: "The second young master of the Wu family died in Qingshui County, and even the master worshiper beside him was killed. This is enough to show that there may be masters in Qingshui County!"

The woman stared forward, a trace of concentration flashed in her beautiful eyes, but then dissipated.

"Junior Sister, you and I were ordered to go to Qingshui County this time. If you encounter any danger at that time, if you are afraid, you can hide behind me. Senior Brother will protect you."

The man's eyes fell on the woman beside him, his eyes fixed on the woman's bumpy figure, and he said meaningfully.

"roll!"

The woman gave him a disgusted and indifferent look, and said coldly.

"Come on, junior sister, we've known each other for so many years, why are you so ruthless?"

The man squinted his mouth.

The woman glanced at him coldly, and sneered: "You are worthy?"

The expression on the man's face froze.

"Zhou Mo, I advise you to stop thinking about me. Don't forget what the purpose of our visit to Qingshui County this time is. If things don't go well, it depends on how you handle business!"

After the woman finished speaking coldly, she continued on her horse.

The man followed behind, staring at the graceful figure of the woman in the carriage ahead, a trace of greed flashed past, and then disappeared.

The two of them left the school together.

This time, it was at the order of the Wu family in Beijing that they rushed to Qingshui County.

The second young master of the Wu family was murdered, and this matter has already caused an uproar in Beijing.The Wu family sent many masters there immediately, and the two of them were one of them.

The man stared not far ahead, which was the direction of Qingshui County, a cruel sneer appeared on his face.

The second young master of the Wu family died there!

No matter what the reason is, this Qingshui county... I'm afraid it's over!

With this in mind, Zhou Mo rode his horse again to catch up with the woman in front of him and walked side by side.

"Junior sister, do you know about the incident between the Wu family and the royal family?" Zhou Mo suddenly mentioned.

The woman glanced at him sideways: "You know?"

"I did hear some gossip..."

The corners of Zhou Mo's mouth raised slightly: "Back then, the Wu family did have some connections with the royal family of the Daning Dynasty. I heard that in order to stabilize the Daning Dynasty, the former emperor once granted a marriage to the Wu family, but it was nothing in the end...the reason Well, you and I both know."

"And then?" The woman was a little impatient.

"I heard that a few months ago, the Princess Changning found some clues, and the Wu family followed the clues to find that guard and that evil seed..."

"Although Wu Yuan is not valued by the Wu family, he is still a descendant of the Wu family. Why did he appear in Qingshui County for no reason? There must be something wrong behind it."

The woman on the side stared suddenly, "You mean..."

"That's right, Junior Sister! I'm sure that the guard and the evil species were probably in Qingshui County back then. I even suspect that Wu Yuan's murder was probably related to this matter."

"He, I'm afraid he was silenced!"

Zhou Mo's analysis is clear and logical.

After the woman finished listening, her expression froze, and then a hint of surprise appeared on her face: "You mean..."

Zhou Mo also nodded with a smile: "The guard must be in Qingshui County. The Wu family sent so many masters to Qingshui County this time, naturally not to avenge Wu Yuan, it's more like an excuse..."

Wu Yuan died in Qingshui County!

For the Wu family, this is bad news.

But even so, if the Wu family wants to avenge Wu Yuan, there are many ways.With the power of the Wu family, just saying hello to the people below will shake the officialdom in Qingshui County.

But the Wu family chose the most cumbersome and most eye-catching method.

The Wu family mobilized so many masters to gather in Qingshui County, is it really just to avenge Wu Yuan?

Obviously, things are not that simple!
I'm afraid avenging Wu Yuan is just an excuse!

"The Wu family has been looking for the whereabouts of that guard all these years, offering a reward of ten thousand gold, junior sister, this is an excellent opportunity!"

Zhou Mo's eyes lit up: "If you and I can come out on top, this will be... a fortune!"

The woman's eyes also lit up.

The two of them are Jianghu sects, but they commit themselves to work for the Wu family. What is the reason?Isn't it for the glory and wealth?
Right now, prosperity and wealth are right in front of them, how can the two of them not be excited?
"So, you and I should hurry up and rush to Qingshui County!"

"If you can catch that guard from back then, catch that evil seed, you will be in front of your eyes!"

The eyes of both of them lit up suddenly, and they stopped talking immediately, and hurried to Qingshui County.

……

The light rain gradually became heavier, and gradually evolved from a patter to a heavy rain.

With a thunderclap from the sky, heavy rain poured down.

The world was pitch black, and the vision outside the city shrouded in heavy rain gradually became blurred.

The heavy rain washed the road, and the original dusty official road became a muddy place.

"Shhhhh!"

What came from my ears was the sound of heavy rain falling.

A burly figure quietly appeared on the official road.

It was a burly figure whose age was unclear, wearing a coir raincoat and a tattered bamboo hat, standing in the middle of the official road.

The burly body is as intimidating as a statue.

A long knife was inserted beside the burly figure and went straight into the ground.

The long knife is about three feet long and ten centimeters wide. The handle of the knife is wrapped with tattered hemp rope.

This figure stood quietly on the official road like this, with his head slightly lowered, his face was covered by the worn-out bamboo hat, so he couldn't see clearly.

He just stood quietly between the sky and the earth, letting the heavy rain fall on him and get him wet.

And he seemed to be waiting for someone!

After a long silence, there was a faint sound of horseshoes in the distance.

Only then did the burly figure seem to react, and raised his head slightly.

Under the bamboo hat, there was a dark and vicissitudes face, and that cold and silent... killing intent!
coming!

Under the heavy rain, several fast horses galloped on the official road.

Soon, approaching.

At the same time, the people on horseback finally noticed the burly figure blocking the middle of the official road.

In the dead of night, how could someone be here?

"who?!"

Zhou Mo took the lead, and his eyes fell on the middle-aged man who was above the official path, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.

Someone stopped here in the middle of the night!
I'm afraid there is fraud!
The burly middle-aged man did not make a sound and remained silent.

Still like a statue.

"Junior Sister, there is something wrong with this person!"

Zhou Mo stared at the middle-aged man on the official road with some vigilance in his eyes.

The woman on the side also glanced at the middle-aged man on the official road, and a trace of coldness flashed across him.

"No matter who he is, just kill him!"

"Ah!"

Hearing this, Zhou Mo's eyes flashed sharply, and he immediately said excitedly: "Junior Sister, leave it to me!"

Since going down the mountain, he has rarely had a chance to make a shot.Since he met someone who wanted to die tonight, he had to show his hands in front of his junior sister.

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Mo pulled out the long sword from his waist.Jumping up from the horseback, he slashed at the middle-aged man on the official road with his sword.

This sword caused a stir in an instant.

The rainwater that had fallen on Zhou Mo's side was also swung away by this sword, and the middle-aged man was approached with fierce momentum, and he wanted to deal with him on the spot.

Facing such a sharp blow from Zhou Mo, the middle-aged man didn't seem to react, and remained motionless, letting the sword in Zhou Mo's hand approach.

Just when the sword in Zhou Mo's hand was about to stab the middle-aged man's neck, the burly middle-aged man who had been silent until now finally reacted.

He still stood on the spot, but his figure shook strangely.

The sword that Zhou Mo was supposed to hit was dodged by the middle-aged man.

Stab empty?
Zhou Mo's eyes changed instantly.

This sword pierced the air, and he finally realized that the middle-aged man in front of him was very skilled in martial arts!
very high!
As a disciple of the younger generation of Tianmen, he is not yet 30 years old and ranks among the second-rate masters in the rivers and lakes, which is enough to be proud of.

Although he can't be compared with the Taichu Sword School, the Wanxiang School, or that monstrous genius of the Wu family, his martial arts are not top-notch in the entire arena, and he is definitely a rare opponent!
But now, as the sword failed, Zhou Mo suddenly realized the horror of the middle-aged man in front of him.

Although he had been vigilant for a long time, the person blocking the road in the middle of the night is by no means a junior.But at this moment when he realized the opponent's unfathomable martial arts, Zhou Mo's heart still rang alarm bells.

There was no extra time to hesitate, and when the sword pierced the air, Zhou Mo immediately changed his move.Stimulating his inner strength, the long sword in his hand immediately slashed horizontally, towards the middle-aged man's head.

If he could strike, he would be able to cut off the opponent's head with ease.

However, Zhou Mo still underestimated the other party after all.

The moment Zhou Mo made his move, the middle-aged man finally moved.

"Buzz!"

There was a soft cry, and the long knife standing beside the middle-aged man came out of the soil and fell into the middle-aged man's hand.

In the next second, under the pitch black rain, a sharp light flashed.

In an instant, Zhou Mo was terrified!

A fear of death enveloped him instantly.

The strong desire to survive immediately made him realize that something was wrong. The pores of Zhou Mo's body almost stood up, and he caught off guard and raised his sword in front of him.

"Ding!"

A crisp crack sounded.

The long sword in Zhou Mo's hand broke in two, and his body froze in place.

At this moment, his eyes were dull.

It seems a little unbelievable.

This sword was given to him by his master, and it is a well-known magic weapon in the world. Although it can't be listed in the weapons list of Jianghu, it is indeed a sword that cuts iron like mud.

Right now, the sword is broken?

Zhou Mo lowered his gaze in a daze, and landed on his chest.

A bright red appeared in front of his eyes.

what is this?
Blood?

he is injured?

Zhou Mo still wanted to move, but there were more and more bright red spots, and the heavy rain fell on him, and the blood mixed with the rain soon covered his whole body.

In just a short breath, he has already become a 'blood man'!
He stretched out his stiff fingers, trying to touch his neck with difficulty.

But his movements were very difficult. At the same time, a sharp pain suddenly appeared in his throat. It was very painful, very cold, and there was an air leak...

"puff!"

A mouthful of blood was spit out suddenly, and Zhou Mo's body fell straight down.

Lost consciousness!

died!

Zhou Mo, a well-known genius in the Jianghu, who was among the ranks of second-rate masters, just died here inexplicably.

Even when he died, he didn't even know how he died!

And who killed him!
And the instigator of all this, the middle-aged man just turned around slowly, his burly body was already wet by the heavy rain, he held the long knife in his hand, and looked up at the woman on the remaining horseback in front of him.

Under the long knife, it was still smooth, without leaving any bloodstains!
This scene deeply shocked the woman on the horseback and the disciples behind her.

When she saw the curse that had been breathless and killed the other party's knife, the woman's face turned pale instantly, and she stared at him in horror: "You, who are you?!"

The middle-aged man didn't speak, but walked towards her with a long knife in his hands.

Under the oppression of the huge momentum, the horses gradually became uneasy, began to roar and twist their bodies, trembling.

The woman on the horseback was even more astonished.

Zhou Mo couldn't hold on to the next move under the opponent's hands. The strength of the person in front of him has far exceeded his imagination.

Why does Qingshui County have such a master? !
The idea of ​​panic had just appeared in the woman's mind, and she jumped up without any hesitation, jumping off the horse.

Then, he turned around and walked away in the direction behind him.

"Quick, withdraw!"

A terrified voice sounded.

She didn't have any thoughts of fighting, and Zhou Mo couldn't resist a single move in the opponent's hands, which showed that this person's martial arts were at least first-rate, or even... even higher!
She has only one thought in her mind at the moment, run!
The farther you run, the better!

However, just as she turned around and ran not far away, the next second, the hairs all over her body stood on end.

She almost instinctively dodged to the side.

"boom!"

Her body was hit hard by something, and she fell heavily on the grass next to her.

This delicate-looking woman was covered in mud and was in a terrible state of distress.

"puff!"

She clutched her chest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and her face was pale.

Looking up, she saw the gleaming silver long knife landed not far in front of her.

At the same time, under the heavy rain, the middle-aged man in the coir raincoat and bamboo hat walked towards her step by step.

That burly figure seemed to be a heavy mountain oppressing her, making her breathless.

panic, panic, fear...

Countless emotions emerged in an instant.

"Your Excellency, who exactly is Your Excellency?"

She knew she couldn't escape tonight!

The only way is to find a way to beg for mercy and admit defeat, maybe you can save your life.

"I have no grievances with you, why do you want to kill..."

Her voice was terrified and trembling: "Since your Excellency is a hero in the world, why would you do such a thing like killing innocent people indiscriminately?"

The middle-aged man came up to her and stopped.

The pitch-black figure, the vicissitudes of life and expressionless eyes under the bamboo hat made her almost prostrate on the ground.

In the heavy rain, there was a hoarse voice.

"The Wu family sent you here?!"
