At this time, the three sword attendants behind, two on horseback and one in a car, were slowly moving forward. However, Huajian did not relax her vigilance because of the departure of her owner, at least in her case. It feels like there is always a gaze staring closely at the carriage.
However, the owner of the village had already left, and the person sitting in the carriage was Yue Jian who was resting, which made Hua Jian feel a little strange.Could it be that the opponent's target is the Moon Sword? This seems a little wrong.
As for the carriage itself, it is possible. After all, although the owner of the farm does not like high-profile, this carriage, although not luxurious, can be considered comfortable, at least compared to ordinary carriages, not only from the inside, Even in terms of appearance, they are very different, so it is understandable that they are being targeted.
"Xuejian, be careful, I always feel like someone is watching us."
"Second sister, you also feel this way. I also feel that someone is staring at us, but although this feeling is there, I don't know where the other person is. There are either hills or mountains on both sides, with lush green mountains on both sides. , it is simply difficult to detect those who are following us.”
Huajian is also aware of the current situation, but fortunately his owner is not in the car. If the other party really takes action, he is not worried that the owner will be implicated.
"No, the opponent's target is not the village owner? Keep an eye on us here, and then sneak attack on the village owner in front?"
As soon as these words came out, Hua Jian was also covered in cold sweat and said quickly, "Yue Jian, we have to speed up our pace and try to catch up with the village owner."
Yue Jian naturally heard Xue Jian's suspicion and had already ordered the grooms outside to speed up. As for Liu Sanshao, after learning that the opponent's target might be Lord Ling, he naturally couldn't help but worry about his sister and followed suit. Speeded up the pace of progress.
Chapter 34 Arriving in Shannan
Ling Yu has always felt that it is not very scientific. Doesn't it mean that the public security in Dongling Prefecture is not good?Why didn't anything happen to me along the way? Is there something wrong?Looking at Shannan City, which was gradually approaching, Ling Yu felt even more strange that he had been safe and sound along the way.
Why do you say that? Because even this city protected by tall city walls has traces of the war. Even this kind of city may be attacked. How could you let yourself come here so safely? .
Looking at Ling Yu, who was a little confused, Ming Yue, who was sitting on the maroon horse, showed a smile. Naturally, the journey would not be uneventful. However, with people from the Demon Sect escorting them, how could there be someone who didn't have a good eye? Coming up.
Besides, she, the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect, is also the shadow of a famous human tree. No one dares to directly rub the tiger's whiskers on a tiger, and this is not how he seeks death.Therefore, we arrived at Shannan City safely along the way.
As the fourth lady of Liujiazhuang in Shannan City, Liu Piaopiao naturally had to receive her guests well, especially when there was such a heavyweight as the leader of the Demon Sect among them.
Nothing happened along the way, Ling Yu didn't understand, but she knew very well that with the leader of the Demon Sect in the team, how stupid those bandits would be to do such a self-destructive thing.
As the leader of the Demon Sect, this being who holds the horns of evil forces can really kill people, and others may keep them to collect rewards, but this person will directly kill people, and she may not be willing to reward them without giving them money. care.
"Master Ling, Master Ming, Shannan City is ahead of us. Do you think we should go to the city to rest first, and then transfer to Liujiazhuang, or should we go directly through the city to Liujiazhuang?"
As a large villa, Liujiazhuang cannot be located in the city, but is still about twenty miles away from Shannan City.
"Well, let's go straight to it..."
"Let's take a rest in Shannan City and go back tomorrow. You can go back and prepare first and pick us up tomorrow morning."
Ling Yu originally wanted to go directly. After all, he was treating illnesses and saving people, so he couldn't waste time. But before he could finish his words, Ming Yue patted his head and took over the conversation.
"In this case, I will go back first. The Piaoliu Inn in the city is run by our Villa. Master Ling and Master Ming, you can go there directly to rest. We will pick you up to the Villa tomorrow."
Ming Yue nodded lightly and rushed towards Shannan City with Ling Yu. Liu Piaopiao and others naturally followed them into the city.
Shannan City is said to be a city, but due to geographical reasons, there is not much population in it. This city in the mountains does not have a lot of fertile farmland on the left and right, and there are not many hills to develop. Therefore, most of the people here Most of the people went out to do business or do other things. Except for some soldiers guarding the city, there were not many civilians here.
"Speaking of which, Piao Piao, it's so deserted here, won't your inn lose money if it's here?"
Liu Piaopiao was confused when she heard this. She rarely encountered this kind of thing except when she used money. Moreover, her eldest brother was basically in charge of business, and she only learned martial arts with her third brother.
He looked at his third brother with a confused expression, only to find that he also had a confused expression. The expressions of the two siblings fell into Ling Yu's eyes and could only turn into a sigh.
She originally thought she didn't care about anything, but it turned out that these two people were just like her, they only cared about money and nothing else.
However, Ling Yu's family knew about her affairs. When she was building the game before, she adjusted the silver console in the manor to the maximum. If it were really counted, it would probably be more than the silver in Daxia's treasury. What she is afraid of is not that she will squander it randomly, but that she will not be able to finish it.
Moreover, the entire villa later established various industries in Su Yucheng. As a result, what she squandered now was not as much as the income from these industries, so she naturally didn't care anymore.
But Liujiazhuang might not be like this, so these two young masters and ladies didn't care about the situation of their villa, which somewhat surprised Ling Yu.
At this time, Young Master Liu hurried to the inn not far away. Piao Liu Inn did not know that his young master and young lady were on their way. At this time, they were carefully cleaning the inside of the inn.
Liu Sanshao walked into the inn at this time and saw two clerks sweeping the floor and a shopkeeper calculating accounts at the counter. He coughed heavily before these people reacted.
Outside, Liu Piaopiao led Ling Yu and his party slowly towards this side, "Piaoliu Inn is located in Shannan City. It can be considered a relatively good inn. Of course it is not as good as the Imperial Capital or the It’s a large city like Hangzhou, but small places also have the characteristics of small places. You guys have a good rest tonight, and when it’s over, I’ll take you around for a nice walk around.”
Ming Yue looked at this enthusiastic woman with a funny face, walking around with Xiao Yu. She still dislikes you as a light bulb.
"Although Shannan City is said to be a city, in general, it is just like a county. It is surrounded by mountains and there are many bandits hiding in it. Are you sure you can take us around?"
Ling Yu blinked and finally understood what was going on with the tall city wall outside. Originally, such a small county town did not need to build such a high wall. If it was to defend against bandits, then it would be. Understandable.
After Ming Yue said this, Liu Piaopiao naturally couldn't get off the stage. She didn't know how to reply for a while, so she could only laugh awkwardly aside.
"Ming Yue, since we are here, we naturally have to have some fun in the area. Besides, with us here, even some bandits are not afraid at all."
Just when Ming Yue was about to speak, she heard Ling Yu continue to say, "Isn't there still you? Could it be that with you here, how could I be in any danger?"
As soon as these words came out, Ming Yue stopped talking. She was asking her to protect her. If she still had objections at this time, she would be causing trouble for herself. Ming Yue smiled and released the answer.
As for Jiang Yueting on the side, she looked unhappy at this time. Forget about Huo Qingqiu, who always pestered the village owner. This Liu Piaopiao was leading the way, so it was no big deal, but this Ming Yue was simply her own. A lifelong enemy.
"Manager, we still have a lot of things to do, and we also need to investigate the Feilong Coin."
"Hey, that's all a trivial matter. The purpose of our coming here was not the Dragon Coins. We might be able to find some new clues here."
Chapter 35 Murderous Case
In the quiet night, the moonlight was shrouded by dark clouds, and the windless and lightless darkness shrouded the entire official road. At this time, there was a sound of bearers carrying the sedan from a distance.It seems particularly strange on this quiet official road.
"When Senluo comes, all the ghosts give way, the living pass away, and the dead are innocent."
With a cold shout, the four bearers moved forward quickly along this not-so-wide official road.At this time, not far in front of them, several Jianghu sects were camping and resting.
"Brother, we will rest here tonight. Why are there so many people keeping vigil on this official road?"
A young girl was sitting next to the fire, chatting with her senior brother who was keeping vigil with her. For some reason, there was usually a constant cold wind on the official road at the foot of the mountain, but today there was not even a trace of wind. nothing.
Looking at the cute junior sister beside him who was illuminated by the bonfire, a man in gray-white robes gently moved the wood in the fire to make the fire more vigorous.It also allows my junior sister to stay warmer.
"Junior sister, if you are tired, take a rest first. Although there is usually no problem with this official road, it is still the boundary of Dongling Prefecture. Who knows whether those bandits will suddenly attack us. So arrange more people A vigil is also possible.”
Moreover, they are a coalition of several forces. Who knows that those people will not make sneak attacks on other forces. Although this situation will not happen until the Feilong Coin is found, who can know that those people will not be stupid. Move them to do something.
It was just this suspicion that he did not tell his junior sister that the world was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface. He did not want his junior sister to be exposed to such dark things so early.
If possible, he hoped that he could always protect his junior sister and keep her pure.
"When Senluo comes, all the ghosts give way, the living pass away, and the dead are innocent."
He was about to let the junior sister take a rest. However, at the corner of the official road, which was obscured by the woods, a cold voice without any warmth came from the corner.
"Everyone be on alert, someone is coming."
With a burst of shouts and gongs, the whole camp was boiling. However, at the moment when the sound sounded, there was a sputtering sound from the woods not far away.
That was the sound of someone coming across the woods. At this time, the moonlight seemed to be sensed by something, revealing a little light in the dark clouds.
Under the dim moonlight, four long strips shining with a faint silver light passed through the crowd, and what followed was a sea of scarlet and wailing.
Death came at this moment. The senior brother who had been taking care of his junior sister was holding the sword tightly with both hands and protecting his junior sister behind him. However, at this time, he could not see any figure. A silver ray of light expanded insignificantly in the eyes.
For some reason, he saw the horrified face of his junior sister, and watched helplessly as the silver light suddenly erupted from her body, and the scarlet color splashed out.
With tears in her eyes, she didn't know what to say. In the end, a hand covered her face in his eyes, and then there was endless darkness.
Four bearers carried a black sedan from the camp that was already stained with scarlet. The man and woman who were still together did not attract anyone's pity or attention.
Their feet didn't stop. If someone looked carefully, they could find that they didn't land at all, but walked through the air a few centimeters above the ground. Finally, after leaving the camp, they landed on their feet again.
When the sun illuminated the land again, people could see the blood in this camp. At this time, Qu Yan was already standing on top of the camp surrounded by the smell of blood, watching with cold eyes.
"Junior Sister Qu, this place is exactly the same as the one we met before. They also responded, but they were still killed by the other party, and they were still killed without any resistance."
"Brother, if it was because the number of people was too small and the enemy was too strong before, but this time, there was no trace of the enemy at all. They were all killed. Even if it was an internal strife, there must be traces of fighting, but here there is absolutely no trace of the enemy. There’s no clue of that.”
Qu Yan looked at the female corpse not far away from her feet, stroking a man's head with one hand. She could understand that the relationship between the two people was just a pity. In the end, they could only drink their hatred here, and they no longer had what they longed for. future.
"I will find the murderer, not only for the honor of our martial arts academy, but also for the sake of these innocent people who died."
"Junior Sister Qu, look here, there are some footprints, maybe left by the killer."
Suddenly, Fencheng's city guard seemed to have found some clues and shouted loudly. Then, he asked the sergeants on the side to surround the place and wait until Qu Yan arrived.
"Junior sister, there should be four people's footprints here. However, I don't understand why these four people's footprints seem to appear on the ground out of thin air. Could it be that they really flew over the camp out of thin air?"
"As far as I know, the only ones who can achieve this level are those masters at the master level. However, it is impossible for these people to attack some small sects. Unless they really block him. His path, or what he needs, is why he is so ruthless."
Qu Yan was also very confused about this situation, but this was already the second murder case near Fencheng. Although the place was different, the method was the same.
"Why do you think he would commit such a murder in Fencheng? The victims of these two murders have been investigated, and there is no relationship at all. So what is the purpose of the other party?"
"Brother, could it be that the enemy walked from the west of the city to the east of the city? Just because someone on the road would discover his existence and he had to be silenced, then he did not commit crimes specifically in Fencheng?"
Qu Yan suddenly thought of a possibility. In this case, any possibility could happen. Naturally, she would not let go of this conjecture. If this was really the case, then the other party's next goal would be to follow the official route. The next city on the road.
And if he keeps walking, he will probably reach Shannan soon.
"Junior sister Qu, I heard that the leader of Tianmo Sect, Ming Yueming, is also in Dongling Prefecture and has also come to Fencheng. Could it be..."
"No, Ming Yue's purpose of coming here is very obvious, which is to find the owner of Miao Yun Villa. Moreover, she has already gone to Shannan City with Ling Yu and others at this time. She has no time or motive to come here to commit crimes. This kind of murder."
One sentence dispelled her senior brother's suspicion, but she began to worry about Ling Yu again in her heart. The other party's purpose was unknown, and she hoped that it would not bring danger to Ling Yu and the others.
Chapter 36 The Coming Crisis
A few days after the previous murder, murders occurred almost every night along the official road. The entire official road could be said to be in turmoil. However, during the search along the way, no trace of the other party could be found at all.
At this time, people in Dongling Prefecture can be said to be in panic. Not only those people in the world, but also some ordinary civilians feel extremely uneasy about the current Dongling Prefecture.
After all, they were all robbers in the past, and at least some clues could be found, but this time, there was no trace at all behind the murders.The only clue that can be found is an extremely vague footprint.
At this time, in Liujiazhuang, the little lolita who got up early to come here as guests have already begun to prepare to wake up the owner of the village who is still lying in bed.
"Master, it's time to get up. This is not our home."
"Well... let me sleep a little longer. I read a novel for too long last night. I went to bed late, so let me sleep a little longer."
A plain white arm lazily stretched out from the quilt, and then lazily waved a few times towards the place where the sound just came from.The cute appearance made Jiang Yueting feel cute.
"Manager, we agreed yesterday that we will discuss Young Master Liu's condition with the old owner of Liu Family Manor this morning. If you don't get up, it will be too late."
"Hmm. That's why I said, what kind of bad doctor is this? You can't even sleep, and you have to get up early to treat people. If you had known about it, you wouldn't have come."
If the young ladies of the Liu family knew that Ling Yu didn't want to treat the eldest son of the Liu family because he wanted to sleep in, they would probably be angry and vomit blood.
"Okay, okay, don't hold me back, why don't you just get up?"
Ling Yu didn't need to ask, it must be Jiang Yueting who pulled her up. Yue Han was so good, how could she pull him so roughly? They must not be allowed to be together in the future, and Yue Ting in front of her would drag Yue Han away again. broken.
Reluctantly sitting up, Ling Yu gave her a big slap, and then turned her attention to Yue Han, who had already prepared clothes for her.
"I bother you to prepare clothes every time. In fact, I can just do this kind of thing myself."
"Xiao Yu, I'm fine. Since I have done this job, I will work hard to do it well, but..." But she didn't say anything after that. She knew that her own affairs were not suitable to talk about now. She would wait until When the time comes, she also hopes to tell Ling Yu her story and see if she can help her.
After walking such a long way and watching for such a long time, if he still didn’t know about the situation of Ling Yu and others, then he would not be alive. However, the more he came into contact with them, the more Yao Yuehan felt the influence of these people. Extraordinary.
The water in Miaoyun Villa is not as simple as the outside world thinks. It is only famous because of the Miaoyun Medical Immortal. I am afraid that their own strength cannot be underestimated.
At this time, when Ling Yu and others were getting up, everyone in the Liu family in the lobby of the main courtyard was worried. They originally thought that they had invited Miao Yun, the medical fairy, to cure their eldest son (eldest brother)'s illness. It's over, but I didn't expect that several murders would suddenly occur near this official road.
And they all happened along the way at night, some were in a small camping camp, and some were just like a mountain villa like my own home.Along the way, the ground was stained with blood, leaving no one alive.
"Dad, if that doesn't work, let's go hide in the city first. Now the government doesn't know who the murderer is, so we'd better avoid it first."
The first person to speak was not Liu Mo, the eldest son who was ill, but Liu Quan, the second son who was an official in the imperial court. This time he returned home from the capital mainly to investigate the official whereabouts of Feilong coins. investigation.
After all, it was unrealistic for Daxia to simply rely on Jianghu forces or Ling Yu. Therefore, Xia Yunsheng sent several teams to prevent uncontrollable factors from appearing in Dongling State.
"No, although our Liujiazhuang is not a well-known family in the world, we can't escape before the enemy appears. If word of this spreads, how can we gain a foothold in the world in the future."
Before his father could speak, Liu Ran, the third child, had already spoken to refute the second brother's opinion. As a knight of the world, he naturally did not want to be cowardly and flee without a fight.
"Third brother, now is not the time to act on your whims. You must know that if we are not careful, I am afraid that the entire village will be killed. By then, do you think those so-called reputations in the world are still useful?"
As the second brother, Liu Quan naturally knew what his younger brother was thinking, but even if that was the case, he couldn't let him do stupid things.The enemy this time is too powerful, and even the escorts he brought may not be able to protect the entire village.
"Second brother, no matter what, we are all Jianghu forces, and it is our responsibility to protect one side. Now the thugs are marching here, how can we escape without fighting, let alone what people in other places will think of us in the future, this is Shannan , How can we still have the nerve to stand here?"
Although he was not a hero, Liu Ran also knew that he was practicing martial arts and had to protect the country and the people, so he could not let Xiao Xiao come to his hometown to cholera. However, at this time, his second brother's behavior was obviously unacceptable to him.
Liu Quan naturally understands his third brother's thoughts, but now is the time for him to be willful. Once he fails, it will be a matter of annihilation. The entire Liu Family Village will be massacred. At that time, what will those innocent people do? .
"Third brother, you must fight, so are you sure you can kill the thugs?"
"I...I'm not sure..."
He was just about to say yes, but when he saw his second brother looking at him with raised eyebrows, Liu Ran became even more unconfident. There were many people who were more advanced than him along the way, but in the end he was still ignored without any resistance. If he kills him, how can he be sure about it?
