Chapter 32: A Boy in the Twilight

The man in the black shirt came to Mo Qinghan's side, and he asked with concern: "Qinghan, are you injured?"

Mo Qinghan replied, "I'm fine. ”

The man in the black shirt looked up and down again, and saw that there were indeed no injuries on the girl's body, and it was not difficult to see that some blood stains on the clothes were contaminated from outside, so he was relieved.

Then the man in the black shirt looked at Xuan Chen, "Who is this?"

Without waiting for Xuanchen to answer, Mo Qinghan said first: "This is my friend." ”

"My name is Xuanchen. Xuanchen added.

The black-shirted man nodded, and then turned around and walked towards Ma Er, who had died of anger.

Xuanchen looked at the mountains and forests, the direction from which Xiao Sheng came before, and asked, "What about the person who played the flute?"

The man in the black shirt continued to move forward, "I've run away." ”

Xuanchen was a little regretful, but he quickly restrained his emotions and said to Mo Qinghan, "I'll go and see it too." ”

Of course, Mo Qinghan refused to let go of the hands that were supporting Xuanchen, and insisted on accompanying him.

"Seven orifices shed black blood, strange and scary, aren't you afraid?" Xuan Chen smiled vigorously and asked.

Mo Qinghan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he secretly glanced at the corpse, but his mouth said stubbornly: "I, I'm not afraid." ”

With Mo Qinghan's support, Xuanchen slowly walked to Ma Er's corpse.

"Senior, did you just say 'Yin Gu'?" Xuan Chen asked.

The man in the black shirt could naturally see that the boy had a lot of relationship with Mo Qinghan, and the boy was covered with injuries, while the girl was safe and sound, which made him even if he didn't know the cause of the incident, just based on the first impression, the boy's senses were still good. There was no shying away from it at the moment, explained.

"A very virulent Gu worm, because it is controlled by the Gu practitioner with sound rhythm, it is called 'sound Gu'. Normally, it lurks in the body without the slightest effect, but once the sound of the rhythm sounds, it only takes a few moments for the person who has been poisoned to die. Sometimes it's Xiao, sometimes it's a flute, and even a pipa is possible, and it can take people's lives as far as hundreds of zhang away. Even the martial artist-level powerhouses are extremely difficult to resist that poison. ”

Xuan Chen continued to ask, "Do you recognize this person?"

The black-shirted man looked carefully at the face covered with blood stains and vaguely recognizable facial features, shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it." ”

The thin young man who walked slowly over the shoulders of the short and fat young man said, "I know this person." ”

Xuan Chen looked back, and the thin man nicknamed "Dry Monkey" had a slightly softened face, not as painful as before. The jet blackness on his right arm was much lighter.

Xuan Chen remembered, and at that time he seemed to have indeed recognized the identity of this person. But because Xuanchen was all focused on the sword at that time, thinking about how to use the sword as quickly as possible to stop the man from rescuing the girl, he had a vague impression.

The thin young man approached, glanced down at the corpse on the ground, and said to the three of Xuanchen, "It's Ma Er from East Street." ”

"Ma Er?" The man in the black shirt still looked unfamiliar, so he asked, "Tell me about it." ”

The thin young man then explained in detail, saying, "You may not know him, but this man is a well-known gambler in the gambling circle, and he owes a lot of debts in the casino. He was caught by his family before that his hands and feet were not clean at the temple fair, and he was taught a hard lesson, so he didn't dare to come again. ”

The thin young man frowned and said, "But a while ago, I seemed to hear that he lost a lot of money in the Mujia Casino, but I didn't expect those small casinos to take him in, and he actually dared to start the idea of the Mujia Casino." ”

"After this time, Ma Er disappeared mysteriously, there are rumors that he hid, and some people say that he ran away, but as far as I know, he should have been imprisoned by the Mu family. ”

The short and fat young man said with a smile: "The dry monkey can't do anything else, the ears are still quite bright, and I can always find some gossip." ”

The thin young man glared at the short and fat young man angrily, and then continued: "Usually I have nothing to do, I occasionally go to those streets and alleys, don't look at those ruffians who seem to be idle all day long and waiting for death, but whenever there is a little wind and grass, they are like one by one growing clairvoyance and ears, and the news is very well-informed." ”

The man in the black shirt nodded, although he despised dealing with those ruffians in the streets and alleys, but he did not feel that this was a vulgar friend. He still knows the principle of doing unto others as you would have them do unto you. Moreover, as the dry monkey said, fireflies still fluoresce, and they cannot be denied all their value by a one-hole view.

The black-shirted man looked at Xuanchen and Mo Qinghan and asked, "Qinghan, how can you have anything to do with this person?"

Mo Qinghan said indignantly: "Uncle Mo Tie, this person is probably the thief who stole the goods on the Mu family's stall in the morning, and maybe he hid that thing in the warehouse behind the iron ore factory at this time, ready to frame the family." ”

Mo Qinghan looked at Xuan Chen again and said, "It was he who discovered this person's intentions in time, so we followed this person all the way, otherwise it would really cause a catastrophe." ”

Xuanchen said: "At first, it was speculation, but now it looks like eight or nine are not far from ten. It's a pity that when people die, it may be a lot of trouble to get to the bottom of it later. ”

Mo Tie, the black-shirted man, is the person in charge of this iron ore factory, he looked at Xuan Chen, but it was more like saying to Mo Qinghan: "In the future, this kind of thing can be found by us first, and you can't act rashly, it is too dangerous to suffer such a serious injury." ”

"The situation was urgent, and it was too late to find you. Xuanchen said.

Mo Tie was stunned for a moment, and turned to apologize: "Hey, I'm confused, this matter is indeed in me, but I don't know that the warehouse is lost, you are fighting life and death with people here and you are not aware of it, and now I actually blame you in turn, sorry, sorry." I should thank you, little brother, can you just listen to what you said, don't take it seriously?"

Xuan Chen smiled, "I won't take it seriously." ”

Mo Qinghan followed and said, "He won't take it seriously." ”

The thin young dry monkey and the short and fat young fat tiger looked at each other.

Mo Tie smiled even more, "Of course, I still have to talk about safety, and even if you blame me for a lot of things, I will say this." ”

After that, Mo Tie summoned helpers to dispose of Ma Er's body, and at the same time ordered one person to take Xuanchen and the four to the iron mine factory to deal with the injuries and rest temporarily. And he immediately went to the warehouse.

Workers working in iron ore factories will inevitably encounter illnesses and injuries, so the Mo family has set up a pharmacy in case of emergency. After a little treatment of the injuries at the pharmacy and a little bit of luck, when they came out, Mo Tie was already waiting for Xuanchen and the four of them outside the gate of the iron ore factory.

"Presumably this bracelet?" Mo Tie raised the reddish-brown bracelet in his hand and was inlaid with a blood-red demon core, and asked.

"It should be, but none of us have ever seen the true shape of the bracelet that the Mu family lost, so we can't be 100% sure. Xuan Chen replied.

Mo Tie was a little puzzled, "That's really it, but is it too clumsy to blame for it? You can't just throw it at the boundary of our Mo family, just say that it was done by our Mo family, right? Unless the people in Yaobei City are like those in the Mu family, their brains are broken." ”

Xuanchen was also puzzled, as Mo Tie said, judging from the current point of view, if this is the real purpose of the Mu family, the method is indeed unsightly, it is like child's play.

Of course, could the Mu family be so stupid? Xuanchen didn't believe it.

Then there is only one possibility, and there is still a certain joint that can make this seemingly flawed conspiracy reasonable and reasonable.

"I'll go back with you, but I'll see with my own eyes what kind of medicine they sell in their gourds. Mo Tie said.

When the five of them returned to the temple fair, the Mu family and the Mo family were still arguing, and they did not find an answer from the stall that satisfied each other.

Until Mo Tie took the lead in separating the crowd wall, threw the bracelet to the stall, and followed Mo Tie's questioning: "You lost it, but this bracelet?"

But when Mo Tie saw the young man of the Mo family who was accused of stealing the goods of the Mu family, he suddenly shouted with a shocked face: "Son!"

——

It was still the compartment in the attic, and the door of the compartment was pushed open again, but this time it was not a man in Tsing Yi who came in, but a barren and thin old man covered in a black cloth, with a rickety body, dry hands like firewood, and a green jade short Xiao pinned to his waist.

"Since the old man is here, does that mean the plan has failed?" Mu Qisheng said, standing by the window.

Mu Xing replied in a hoarse and dry voice: "Fortunately, the young patriarch took precautions, and as early as when he was in the dungeon, he took precautions on Ma Er's body and did not leave a handle. ”

"When the old man said this, it seems that I had expected the plan to fail?" Mu Shusheng smiled coldly.

Mu Xing immediately buried himself, "The old slave doesn't dare!"

"A bunch of useless stuff. In three days, those unfavorable guys are handed over to you for three days, and it is still up to you to send them, how can they remember this lesson, the old man must be better than me?"

——

The young Mo family member who was accused of stealing the demon core on the Mu family's stall turned out to be the son of Mo Tie, who was in charge of managing the Mo family's iron ore factory.

But now, Ma Er, who was planted with a highly poisonous sound Gu, is dead, and there is no proof of his death.

Therefore, the truth can only be known by the authorities, but the onlookers are still confused.

It has become a clear authority and a mystery to the bystanders.

The girl followed behind the boy, secretly raising her eyes from time to time to glance at the boy, and this was repeated many times, and after leaving the temple fair, the boy was always expressionless.

The Yuliu River next to it, under the afterglow of the setting sun, is calm and waveless, quiet like a tiled golden satin, and the long branches of the willow trees on the riverbank are plated into gold bars by the slanting sun, like a bead curtain that has not been lifted for a long time.

Suddenly, a gust of wind struck, the river surface sparkled ripples, and finally the direction of the river swimming, the willow branches swayed, as if someone opened the bead curtain, the willows piled up smoke, and the curtain was not repeated.

The young man paused, and his emaciated body stood upright.

The girl who walked with her head down did not notice that the young man in front of her had stopped, and without paying attention, she bumped into the thin back of the young man.

"Let's go here, it's not far from the bridge, you go first, wait until you get to the other side, and then I'll go." The young man said in a dry voice, the Mo family is on the other side of the bridge, and the porcelain alley is on this side of the bridge.

"Okay? It's still a long way from your house. The girl asked, she was concerned about the boy's injury.

"It's okay, didn't I go all by myself from the temple fair to here?" said the young man.

The girl wanted to say something.

The boy continued: "I want to walk alone, so I ......"

The girl's low moist eyes were like autumn water, gloomy and gloomy.

She let out an "oh", wringed her hands, and walked around the boy onto the bluestone arch bridge.

When she reached the middle of the bridge, the girl turned back and called to the young man: "Remember to take care of your injuries when you go back, and I will send you some medicinal herbs in two days, don't leave the root of the disease, that is not good." ”

The girl finished speaking in one breath, as if she was afraid that the next moment the boy would turn away and be unable to hear. Then continue walking on the other side.

The boy nodded, watching the girl get closer and closer to the other side step by step.

As the girl walked across the bridge and was about to enter the alley, the boy suddenly shouted, "In the future, I will not let you take any more risks because of me." ”

The girl turned around when she heard the sound and looked at the resolute young man on the other side of the golden willow river.

"What if I want to go on an adventure with you?"

The boy was silent for a moment, and then replied, "Then you wait for me to become stronger, but you are only allowed to follow me, and I will take you with you." ”

The girl smiled, and the flowers were defeated.

"I'll wait for you. ”

No matter how many words she says, she can't withstand the imminent death, she resolutely stands in front of you, not afraid of death.

Once, when the sect sacrificed his life in exchange for his life, the young man was powerless.

But today, he is no longer a person who can only stand behind others and steal his life, but a person who has a sword in his hand and protects him behind his back.

And it is so today, and it will be like this in the future, and it will be so in the future.

The young man's surname is Xuan, and his name is Chen.

It's the son of Xuanmen!
