Stunning weapon

A wisp of cool wind swayed across the river, causing steep ripples. Under the moonlight, thousands of cold lights were reflected, but the coldest one was in the hands of Butler Wang.The dagger was as cold as water, and it came in a flash, and it was already close to Qin Mu's neck.

Qin Mu was unprepared, and when he realized it, Steward Wang's dagger was already in front of him.

In desperation, he stepped out with a big foot, aiming at Steward Wang's chest. Qin Mu's martial arts were far superior to Steward Wang's, and this kick came first.Wang Steward's body flew out suddenly, and fell heavily on the bank of the river. When he flew out, the dagger in his hand also bounced out.

Qin Mu hurriedly turned sideways, but was still cut, blood flowed down his neck, fortunately it was not deep, it only hurt the skin, but even so, it made him break out in a cold sweat.

"I didn't expect that in just over ten years, you are about to set foot on the holy path." Steward Wang smiled miserably. He seemed to be seriously injured. He barely stood up and swayed a few times before stabilizing, but he was still weak. It's so powerful that even speaking, it seems weak.

Qin Mu touched the blood on his neck, took a deep breath, calmed down a bit, and said, "This old man is already dying, and there is no hope for the holy way in this life. Although you and I are both in the realm of masters, you have passed through the past few years. It’s too comfortable, I’m afraid I haven’t fought with anyone for many years.” After that, he looked at the weak Steward Wang, sighed lightly, and said: “After all, you and I used to be friends, I don’t want to make things too difficult for you. You, as long as you tell the whereabouts of King Qi's son, I promise I won't bother you again."

"The child is already dead." Steward Wang shook his head and said, "If you don't believe me, there is nothing I can do. If I come out today, I don't plan to go back alive. I also advise you, you should leave as soon as possible, causing ghosts With the attention of the Ye family in Zhouzhou, it will be difficult to get out of Yanjing."

"You don't need to worry about this matter." Qin Mu frowned and said, "You really don't want to say it?"

Steward Wang didn't speak, sighed softly, and slowly backed away. Suddenly, he kicked his feet hard, and his whole body bounced out, "Wow!" There was a sound of falling water, and the water splashed everywhere. In an instant, he sank into the river Bottom, disappeared.

Qin Mu was shocked and hurried forward.Just as he was about to jump into the river to find someone, he suddenly heard a loud noise in the distance, and then, the guards of the Mei Mansion in armor rushed over on a fast horse.

The expressions of the people behind Qin Mu changed, and they said, "Elder Qin, the people from the Mei Mansion are here, we'd better leave. If things get serious, we'll be in trouble..."

Qin Mu looked at the rippling river surface, clenched his fists, and said, "Let's go." After finishing speaking, the group of people quickly ran towards the distance, and soon, they hid signs.

After the Mei Mansion's guards rushed to the bank of the river, half of them chased after them, while the other half stayed behind and went down the river to look for them.

This night, the guards of the Mei Mansion were extremely busy. In the middle of the night, it seemed that there was a thunder in the Paradise, and a guy with a loud voice rushed over, shouting: "Young Master, it's not good, Steward Wang is dead."

Mo Xiaochuan, who was still drinking with Situ brothers and sisters, was taken aback for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong, he turned his head and asked, "Brother Situ, what did he just say?"

Situ Xiong had already drank a little too much, waved his hand, and said, "Isn't it just that the housekeeper died, what's the big deal. Let them go while they are busy, and don't disturb your and my drinking."

"Eldest, eldest young master, it's the king, the king... Butler Wang is dead." The third son has been waiting by the side, not daring to drink, when he heard the news, he looked like the sky was falling, and stuttered a little.

Mo Xiaochuan rubbed against the ground, stood up, frowned, called the person who was shouting to him, and said, "What's going on?"

"Eldest young master, the youngest one doesn't know either. It was Steward Li who asked the youngest to inform the young master, and ask the young master to take charge of the overall situation." The man said tremblingly, Steward Wang has been almost equal to Mei Shichang in the Mei Mansion over the years, and now He died suddenly, and Mei Shichang was not in the mansion, it was as if the sky had fallen.

Mo Xiaochuan took a deep breath. The person he met not long ago died suddenly. Combined with what Steward Wang said to him earlier, he felt that this matter was not simple, so he turned to Situ brothers and sisters and said: " There was an accident in the mansion today, so I can't be with you anymore, forgive me, you three." After finishing speaking, he said to the third son, "Go and send off Mr. Situ and the two young ladies."

"Mr. Mei, don't say that. We'll go on our own. The affairs of the mansion are important." Situ Lin'er seemed reluctant to speak. After saying these words, she shook her head and held back the rest of the words. .At the same time, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Situ Yu'er, motioning to help Situ Xiong up.

Situ Xiong was also a little awake at this time, looking at Mo Xiaochuan's dignified face, he also knew that it was not the time for them to stay, so he stood up and said, "Brother Shaochuan, there is a place for brothers, Send someone to let me know."

"Thank you brother Situ!" Mo Xiaochuan nodded.

Situ Yu'er looked at him and said, "Mei Shaochuan, we are leaving, you should pay more attention!"

"Yeah!" Mo Xiaochuan agreed, and after asking the third son to send them away, he told Ying'er and Yan'er to keep an eye on Mei Xiaowan, and hurriedly followed the man towards Steward Wang's yard.

When he arrived, the courtyard was already surrounded by guards, and he went straight into the courtyard. Steward Li and the captain of the guard welcomed him into the room. In the room, a soaked and swollen corpse was lying on the bed. It was Steward Wang.Mo Xiaochuan took a breath and asked, "What's going on here?"

"A while ago, Steward Wang went out and told his subordinates that if he didn't come back in half an hour, he would take people to look for him by the Chu River." The captain of the guard wiped his forehead covered with cold sweat, and said, "Subordinate When I brought people there, I happened to see Steward Wang falling into the water, so I was busy sending people to salvage it, but in the end, it was still a step too late."

"Was there anyone else there?" Mo Xiaochuan asked.

"There are still a few people." The captain of the guard replied.

"What about people?"

"I haven't caught it yet, but my subordinates have sent people to chase after him, and there should be news soon."

Hearing what the captain of the guard said, Mo Xiaochuan was still a little puzzled, and asked again: "How long did it take you from seeing Steward Wang fall into the water to picking him up?"

"About half an hour." The captain of the guard replied.

"Half an hour?" Mo Xiaochuan looked at Steward Wang's swollen corpse, and doubts arose in his heart. It stands to reason that the corpse should not be soaked like this in less than an hour. However, he knew that this was just his own conjecture. If he couldn't stand, he didn't say it.After thinking for a while, he said to the captain of the guard: "Take people to the outside of the mansion to strictly guard. No one can come in and out at will tonight. We will talk about it tomorrow."

"Yes!" The captain of the guard took the order and left.
