Chapter Four: The Mystery of Yangzhou (2)
After separating from Lu Li, the two walked down the mountain. Along the way, Night Rain was so distracted that he didn't even pay attention to the rocks blocking the middle of the road.
"What do you want?" Wen Ling said, pulling Ye Yu's sleeve.
"Huh?" Night Rain stopped and came back to his senses. "I, I was thinking about what just happened. ”
"What's wrong?" Wen Ling asked.
Yeyu analyzed: "The cave on the mountain is obviously a place that the descendants of Jiuli are looking for in order to get out. He threw all the clothes and things that smelled of him there, apparently not wanting to be found. In that case, how could he come back again? Before, Lu Daxia said that he was waiting for the descendants of Jiuli, and I always felt that something was not right. ”
Wen Ling thought about it for a while and said, "What you said has some truth. But that's just your guess, isn't it?"
Night Rain smiled and said, "Yes." Okay, let's go. ”
There was no news of Jiuli's descendants, and the two were going to go to the Li Mansion in Yangzhou to have a look. Night Rain wanted to go back, but Wen Ling refused to live or die, so he had to give up.
When they returned to Yangzhou, it was getting late, so the two stayed in the inn.
Early the next morning, while they were having breakfast, they suddenly heard a shocking news.
"Hey. Do you know that the Li family has been wiped out!" someone in the seat next to him said.
"Really, when?" someone asked in surprise.
"It should have happened last night. I heard that there is no one alive up and down the Li Mansion, and that scene is really miserable......"
"Who made this ruthless ......?"
"Then you need to say, it must be a descendant of Jiuli!"
"The Li family has done so many immoral things, and they deserve to be destroyed......"
Listening to the talk of these people next to him, Ye Yu couldn't sit still: "Something happened to the Li Mansion, let's go and take a look." ”
"But the meal hasn't been eaten yet......
"I'll eat ...... later" Ye Yu pulled up the Wen Ling beside him and hurried out of the inn and headed towards the Li Mansion.
At this time, a large number of people gathered outside the Li Mansion to watch the excitement, and these people talked about the Li family's extinction. Now that the people of the government have blocked the Li family, Yeyu wanted to go in, but was stopped outside.
Wen Ling complained and said: "I ran so fast, I can't get in, I knew that I would have finished the meal first......"
"Just know how to eat, one day you will become the same as Qiuqiu......" As he was talking, he suddenly saw Wenren Qingyun, so he shouted, "Brother Wenren!"
When Qingyun saw Yeyu, he ran over and said, "Brother Yeyu, you're here." ”
"yes. I heard that the Li family was wiped out, so I came to take a look, but I didn't expect to be blocked out. Yeyu said helplessly.
"I'll tell the doorkeeper, and you'll just go in...... Hey, who is this?" Wenren Qingyun suddenly noticed Wen Ling behind Ye Yu, so he asked. When Wen Ren Qingyun came over, Wen Ling quietly stood behind Ye Yu.
"Oh, he's mine...... Well, junior sister, come with me to investigate the affairs of Jiuli's descendants. Yeyu said with a smile.
"That's the case...... "Wenren Qingyun looked thoughtfully at the figure behind the night rain.
"Brother Wenren, let's go in. ”
"Oh, good. ”
Wenren Qingyun said that the disciples of Penglai went in to investigate the destruction of the door, and the guards naturally did not stop them.
As soon as he entered the Li Mansion, the smell of blood came to his face. The further you go inside, the heavier the gore.
"I heard from the government that the time of the crime should have been last night when everyone was asleep, and most of the dead were killed in their sleep. Wenren Qingyun said as he walked.
Soon, they came to a room. As soon as they entered the house, they saw a person lying on the ground, who was the head of the Li family. He was disheveled, his face was frightened, and there was a bloodstain on his body. Yeyu stepped forward, carefully examined the man's injuries, and said, "He suffered a sword wound, and he was killed with a sword. He got up and said, "Let's look elsewhere." ”
After that, they went to several houses with corpses, and Nightrain came to the same conclusion. During this time, some white powder was found on the ground during the night rain, which was the same as that found in the cave.
"This murderer should be a master with a sword. As for whether he is a descendant of Jiuli who came here before, it's hard to say......" As he was talking, Yeyu suddenly saw that something was wrong with Wenling beside him, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Wen Ling shook his head and ran away suddenly.
"I'm going to see what's wrong with my sister. "The night rain is clear to the people.
"Go ahead. ”
Wen Ling inadvertently ran into the garden of the Li Mansion. Coming here, the heavy bloody aura finally faded a little. She held the edge of the flower bed with one hand and took off the veil with the other.
When Yeyu came here, he happened to see Wen Ling vomiting by the flower bed, so he hurriedly ran over, patted her on the back and said, "Are you okay?" Otherwise, I'll send you out first. "The bloody qi in the house is indeed very heavy, no wonder Wen Ling has such a reaction.
Wen Ling shook his head: "I, I'm fine." ”
Yeyu saw that Wenling's face was a little pale, so he said worriedly: "I think, you better go out first." ”
"Ahh
"What's wrong?" asked Yeyu hurriedly.
"Well, there......" he said, pointing towards the flowers.
Following the direction of Wen Ling's finger, Yeyu seemed to see a person moving, so he jumped into the flower bed and walked over.
After passing, Nightrain discovers that it is an injured person. There was also a blood mark on this man's body, but strangely, this man's injuries were not as severe as those before him. The night rain lifted the man up, and the man squinted his eyes and moved his lips slightly, as if he was still alive.
Seeing that this person was still talking, Ye Yu hurriedly injected aura into his body, and asked at the same time, "Who hurt you?"
"Uh......" This man was very weak and couldn't speak.
"Is it the Jiuli descendant who appeared before?" Ye Yu asked differently.
"Forehead......" The man's lips moved slightly, and he tried to speak, but he couldn't speak, and finally his head tilted and he lost his breath.
The night rain dragged the man out. At this time, Wen Ren Qingyun had also arrived, and Wen Ling also wore a veil.
"What's going on?" asked Wenren Qingyun. Obviously, he should have heard the scream of Wen Ling.
Night Rain pointed at the man on the ground: "This man's injuries are not serious, I think it may be that he was not directly attacked, but was injured by the afterglow of the sword." ”
After listening to Yeyu's words, Wenren Qingyun said in surprise: "I didn't expect this Jiuli descendant to be so powerful!"
Yeyu shook his head and said, "I always feel that this murderer is not a descendant of Jiuli. ”
"Why?" asked Wenren Qingyun.
Ye Yu said: "He has already been here once before, if he wants to kill someone, why not kill him when he comes the first time, why do you have to come again?" Also, this Jiuli descendant is in his early twenties at most, and at his age, it is impossible for him to have such advanced swordsmanship. ”
Wenren Qingyun nodded and said, "What you said also makes some sense. It's just that, if it weren't for the descendants of Jiuli, who would be so cruel?"
Yeyu said: "I will definitely investigate this matter to the end." ”
"Well, I believe the Night Rain brothers......"
