Chapter 188: The Layout Begins
Jiang Feng took out Wu Xiuchuan's body from the storage ring, and hurried all the way in front of him in his arms, his expression complicated, and his face was sad and self-reproachful.
He rushed like the wind, rampage, and went straight to the Wuhou Mansion, attracting the attention of many parties. Anyone who saw it on the way, after recognizing the person in his arms, was shocked, and his complexion changed greatly, especially the people of the major sects, who immediately turned back to the sect family and explained the matter to the head of the family.
"Brother Wu!"
Jiang Feng walked straight into the Wuhou Mansion sideways, no one stopped him, and he had already arrived at the meeting hall of the Hou Mansion in a few breaths. Wu Xiulin heard his distant shout, and the corners of his mouth chuckled, and he didn't feel secretly relieved.
The murder committed by the so-called demon cultivators in the Wuhou Mansion was just a calculation to defeat Jiang Feng and the four of them. Before, Dugusheng had just gone to the Xishan Ancient Forest, and Jiang Feng suddenly left the Wuhou Mansion, and he inquired only to find out that Xia Yedi was nowhere to be found, and even the guards of the Mansion had no way of knowing.
Wu Xiulin saw Jiang Feng rushing over, and was greeting him with a smile, and suddenly, he saw the person in Jiang Feng's arms, and his face suddenly turned pale in an instant.
"Little sister!"
Jiang Fengfang stabilized his body, only to feel that the afterimage in front of him flickered, and Wu Xiulin had snatched Wu Xiuchuan from his arms and fell to his knees.
With trembling hands, he gently stroked his sister's pale and cold cheeks, surveying the scars on her neck and the blood-stained clothes. Wu Xiulin's lips trembled, but he was speechless, he hugged Wu Xiuchuan's cold corpse, and in the end, everything turned into endless tears and wails, resounding throughout Wuhou Mansion.
He knew that Wu Xiuchuan was leaving with Youmeng, and this was a task that his sister volunteered to take on before deciding to start acting today.
Wu Zhenfang and Wu Xiulin were hesitating at the time, but she spent many days of work to win the letter to get close to the two daughters of Xia Yeyan and Youmeng, Wu Xiuchuan asked again, and Wu Xiulin also felt that Youmeng would not defend Wu Xiuchuan, who was weak in cultivation, and if she was not prepared for a sneak attack, she would definitely succeed, so she finally agreed to her.
However, Wu Xiulin didn't expect that Wu Xiuchuan didn't even give him a detailed statement of his actions today, so he left Wuhou Mansion with a ghostly dream, but for half an hour, what he was waiting for was cold bad news.
"Ah!!h
"Brother Martial ......"
Jiang Feng looked at Wu Xiulin, who was kneeling and wailing, his eyes flickered, and his expression gradually wavered, but then, this emotion was covered up again, he couldn't let his innocence of a thought become a big mistake, even if he didn't care about himself, he must not lose the lives of the three people in the summer night because of this, he couldn't be so selfish.
Wu Xiulin's cry of pain alarmed Wu Zhenfang, who was meditating in the room, and when he came to the meeting hall and saw the scene in front of him, this middle-aged man who covered up his hypocrisy with enthusiasm revealed his true emotions for the first time.
He stroked Wu Xiuchuan's cheek, there, there was not the slightest temperature, it was too late, everything was too late! He didn't even have a chance to save his daughter......
"Who is it? Who did this? Who the hell is it?"
Wu Zhenfang clenched his fists, looked up to the sky and roared, Wu Xiulin hugged his dead sister in his arms, his eyes were bloodshot, blood red, with monstrous hatred, he turned to look at Jiang Feng, although he tried to suppress it, his voice was still full of endless anger and anger.
"Brother Jiang, tell me, what the hell is going on?"
"Senior Martial Arts, Martial Brother, this matter ......"
Jiang Feng sighed, his face was sad, his expression and demeanor were full of indescribable hesitation and guilt, with self-blame and unspeakable concealment.
"Brother Jiang!"
Wu Xiulin came from the heart, his voice was hoarse, only two words, and the rest was only a firm gaze. Under the gaze of Wu Zhenfang's father and son, Jiang Feng took a long breath and made a decision.
"Today, you asked Dugusheng to lead a team to the Xishan Ancient Forest to search for the murderer Demon Xiu, I couldn't worry in my heart, so I wanted to go back to my residence, look for the summer night and the dream, and do my best to see if it can help you. But when I went, Xia Ye was nowhere to be found, and then I learned that the martial girl had gone out with Yu Meng, and I felt bad when I thought of Xia Ye Di and what I had mentioned, so I hurried to find it. ”
"Where's the restlessness?"
Wu Zhenfang stared at Jiang Feng's eyes, not letting go of the slightest trace of his words and expression.
A few days before the accident, she directly told Xia Yedi that she was going to retreat and practice, but she cut off our visits and all inquiries. The night before, I had accidentally found out that she secretly sneaked out of the Wuhou Mansion at night, I was suspicious, I wanted to follow and investigate, but her figure was really weird, in the blink of an eye, I had lost her trace, I could only give up!
"Later, after the accident in the Wuhou Mansion, the martial predecessors deduced that the demon cultivator who was the disaster was very likely to kill people for the sake of practice, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that the body of the dream was weird and weird, not like what the righteous path saw. Thinking about it carefully, even if there was only a 1 in 10,000 possibility, I couldn't rest assured, so I immediately looked for the two of them, and finally saw them somewhere in the ancient forest of Xishan. ”
"And then?"
"It's a pity that I was a step too late, Miss Wu only had her last breath left, I hurriedly slapped with Youmeng, she turned around and fled, I wanted to save Miss Wu, however, Jiang Feng was incompetent, and finally failed to ......"
Jiang Feng said to the end, and suddenly turned his head, his face regretful, and he heard the sound of crying. Wu Zhenfang's father and son heard this, their bodies shook for a while, looked at Wu Xiuchuan, and finally hid their faces and cried bitterly.
"Little sister, she actually went to the Xishan Ancient Forest! How could she go to the Xishan Ancient Forest? Youmeng, it turned out to be you! It's really you!"
Wu Xiulin hugged Wu Xiuchuan's corpse tightly, and kept roaring, Jiang Feng lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down on one knee, and said sincerely: "Senior Wu, Brother Wu, although I only got acquainted with the dream after I came to the rear of the Thirteen Lands, after all, he and she entered the Wuhou Mansion with me, and I also have an unshirkable responsibility for the death of Miss Wu." I will do my best to assist the Wuhou Mansion in arresting the murderer, as long as Brother Wu needs it, Jiang Feng will never give up!"
Wu Zhenfang and Wu Xiulin heard this, but they were not surprised, they also thought that Youmeng and Jiang Feng and Xia Yeyan belonged to the same Cloud Palace, but later they learned that among the four, only Jiang Feng and Xia Yeyan were sisters and brothers of the same family, and Dugusheng belonged to another faction, and Youmeng did not have much to do with them.
But they didn't expect that the dream turned out to be met by Jiang Feng and the three of them after they came to the Thirteen Lands. Subsequently, Jiang Feng informed Wu Zhenfang's father and son of all the beginnings and ends of the encounter with the dream, and deliberately described him as an elusive person with a withdrawn and strange temperament and an extreme and indifferent behavior according to the layout of the four people's preliminary agreement.
Although Wu Zhenfang and Wu Xiulin were angry, they still watched everything about Jiang Feng with all their attention, but Jiang Feng's words were seven true and three false, and they didn't doubt it at all.
"Brother Wu, Miss Wu held my hand before she died, and said something to me about 'sealing' and 'lifting', she can't rest assured until she dies, I don't know what it is?
Before he finished his words, he didn't expect that his sister would mention the seal to Jiang Feng before she died, but it was obvious from Jiang Feng that she didn't say anything more in the end.
However, Wu Zhenfang and Wu Xiulin were a little relieved that Wu Xiuchuan was still obsessed with family affairs when his life was over, but they were more sour and self-blame - why did she be promised to participate in the plan to clear the obstacles.
In Wu Xiulin's view, if Wu Xiuchuan initially chose to sneak attack and assassinate the person who died in the summer night instead of a strange dream, perhaps, she would be able to succeed in one fell swoop, and she would be able to witness the glory of the rise of Wuhou Mansion alive, and she would be one of the great heroes of the entire martial arts family.
Pity......
However, Wu Xiuchuan couldn't rest assured until he died, whether it was Wu Zhenfang or Wu Xiulin, he would never be allowed to fail. Jiang Feng's words, I didn't doubt them, so this belief was also unprecedentedly firm in their hearts.
Moreover, after this incident, coupled with Wu Xiuchuan's dying words, Jiang Feng felt ashamed in his heart, and he would definitely spare no effort to help. He has the same origin as him, and he may know the simplest way to break the formation, so it will definitely save them a lot of effort. Even if they still had resentment in their hearts, they could wait for Jiang Feng to successfully break the seal before killing him.
This move was considered a risky move, but it also temporarily saved Jiang Feng's life, so that Wu Zhenfang would not risk killing him because he was in a hurry to break the seal. If they lost the correct way to break the seal because they killed Jiang Feng, but in the end they didn't succeed, then the gains outweighed the losses, and they didn't dare to gamble, so this was enough for Jiang Feng to worry about in the Wuhou Mansion in a short time.
"Jiang Xian's nephew has a heart!"
Wu Zhenfang's voice fell, Wu Xiulin suddenly looked at the guards outside the door, and directly shouted: "Pass my military order, order Yin and Xia to be the two commanders, immediately end the task of guarding and searching the Hou Mansion, march into the Xishan Ancient Forest, search for the dream, and kill it on the spot!"
Wu Xiulin didn't expect that he had created a real murderous demon cultivator, but in the end, he accidentally caused his sister to die in vain at the hands of an evil cultivator who did not know the true demon, maybe Yumeng was indeed a demon cultivator who pretended to be clever, but no matter what, she had to die now!
However, Wu Xiulin did not dare to blatantly completely withdraw all the search forces, the real murderer of the demon cultivator was faked, but Jiang Feng was convinced that it was true. The other party has just promised to do his best to help him break the seal, if he becomes suspicious and finds that everything is just a mortal situation, he will definitely escape, and at that time, it is really possible to lose all his previous achievements.
But just as the guard was about to go to convey the order, Wu Xiulin noticed that Xia Yeyi, who had disappeared, actually returned to Wuhou Mansion with the unconscious Dugusheng and was walking towards the meeting hall.
"Slow!"
Wu Xiulin immediately drank the herald guards, looked at Jiang Feng without a trace, and glanced at his father Wu Zhenfang, the situation may be variable, if they have no choice but to ambush and kill Dugu Shengyi, they can only kill the three people in front of them first, take out the homologous treasure in Jiang Feng's body, and then take care of revenge.
"Nightfall, what happened?What happened to Shengyi?Where did you go before?How did you meet him?"
Jiang Feng pretended not to know and stepped forward to ask, and took Dugu Shengyi from the panting summer night on his shoulder, and Wu Zhenfang's father and son also looked at it with bated breath.
Strategizing and planning, Jiang Feng took Wu Xiuchuan's body to return to Wuhou Mansion first, and the arrival of Xia Yejie came later, which means that the layout of the four of them has officially begun!
