Jiutu Mountain, the Shadow Pavilion Hall.

The moon shadow was heavy, and at first glance there was actually a thin figure sitting on top of the empty Senleng Hall, because the candle was not lit, so a large area of shadows covered the person's face, revealing only a vague outline.

The closed door of the hall slowly opened, and two people walked in from the night, it was Chaolu and Chen Yao, who had arrived at the Shadow Pavilion in Shun lì.

"Hee-hee, I knew you would be back~" There was a chuckle like a silver bell from above the gloomy stone steps, and the blurred black shadow moved with the laughter.

Although she had also been to the Shadow Pavilion before, it was the first time she had entered this main hall, Chaolu was a little nervous, she looked at Chen Yao, and the other party immediately turned her head in understanding, "You wait here, I'll go over and talk to her." ”

Chaolu was about to answer, but heard the crisp and tactful little girl's voice sound again: "Let her come along, it's not an outsider anyway~"

“？！”

Hearing this, Chaolu and Chen Yao were unexpectedly stunned, what do you mean by not being an outsider?

Chen Yao froze and asked in a cold voice, "Yutai, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Literally." In the darkness, there was a small chuckling voice from the top of the city, she seemed to enjoy seeing others surprised, ignoring the faces of the two people under the stairs and continuing to say without surprise: "You brought the daughter of the former left envoy, of course she is not an outsider~"

"Y-What did you say?" Asaro blurted out in disbelief.

Amused by Ayuro's surprised appearance, Yutai October simply jumped off the throne and walked briskly to the top of the steps, her childlike short figure was no higher than the guardrails on both sides of the stone steps, and the wide cloak completely covered her face, only the white bandages on the exposed palms were shocking.

Looking at Chaolu and Chen Yao condescendingly, Yutai October said softly: "I am the right envoy of the Shadow Pavilion, and your mother Nie Yunli is the left envoy. ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Chaolu, but even Chen Yao was surprised, he had been in the Shadow Pavilion for many years, although he knew the storage of the left envoy, but no one had ever seen that person, it was just a fictitious position! Surprised, he quickly calmed down, and looked at Yutai October with a solemn face-"Why don't I know these things?" ”

"The right envoy stays in the Shadow Pavilion to coordinate intelligence, while the left envoy is hidden in the world and is responsible for contacting the buyer, so his identity is naturally not suitable for divulging," Yutai October leaned lazily against the guardrail, as if recounting an inconsequential matter, "It's just that she's dead, so it doesn't matter if she hides her identity or not." ”

"It can't be!" Chaolu immediately retorted, in her mind, Yunli was just a poor woman with a tragic fate, how could she have anything to do with a killer organization like Shadow Pavilion?

"Why can't it?" He didn't mind interrupting Chao Luyan, and his tone was still soft, and he paused slightly for a moment as if recalling the past, "Speaking of which, Yunli's life experience is also very bizarre, no one knows where she comes from or where she is taught, except for the name of Mrs. Gu Fu, there is very little information that can be said...... Perhaps, the pavilion master took a fancy to her back then~" Speaking of this, Yutai October looked Chaolu up and down with interest, "I've always been curious, what Yunli's daughter looks like, I finally saw it today." ”

The amount of information in Yutai October's words was really amazing, and before Chaolu could digest and absorb it, she continued to say unhurriedly: "Others don't know, Chen Yao, don't you notice it in the slightest? ”

Chen Yao, who was named by name, was slightly stunned, and raised his head reflexively.

"The whereabouts of the pavilion master who was designed by a traitor are unknown, and before the accident, he handed over his token to the left envoy for safekeeping, as for what happened later, I don't need to explain, right?" The smile in Yutai October's tone gradually disappeared, turning into a backwater-like coldness.

Wake up the person in the dream with a word, Chaolu and Chen Yao both thought of a name: Baili Liuyun. In this way, the whole clue is coherent, Baili Liuyun loves Yunli but can't, and when he forcibly controls people, he accidentally finds the token of the Shadow Pavilion, and then he uses the killer to slaughter the Gu Mansion, and then uses the power of the Shadow Pavilion to control other sects step by step...... But there is one crucial element missing.

"Who was the Pavilion Master victimized?" Without waiting for Chaolu to speak, Chen Yao took the lead in asking.

Yes, everything that has happened in the past two years or so seems to be manipulated by an invisible hand behind the scenes, and all the sects involved in the entire martial arts are like black and white on a chessboard......

If that's the case, it's terrible!

Without answering Chen Yao's question directly, Yutai was silent for a long time before he said lightly: "From beginning to end, the pavilion master only called a name in his mouth......"

Needless to say, Chaolu and Chen Yao can also guess that the snow suit.

However, no matter how Chaolu speculates, it is difficult to imagine how capable such a woman who was designed by her relatives to leave her hometown after losing her lover can have no way to contact the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes.

"But," Chen Yao stepped forward, "wasn't Yu Xueyi killed by me?" ”

Hearing this, Tantai October laughed softly, and she took a moment to support her chin and look at Chen Yao, "Do you really think that the person you killed is Yu Xueyi?" She didn't doubt Chen Yao's ability, but judging from the recent movements in the martial arts, this matter did not end there.

"I won't kill the wrong person," Chen Yao said coldly, he had never missed a single time in all these years, and of course it was impossible now, "I'm pretty sure that I killed the woman in that portrait." ”

"What portrait?" After listening to their conversation, Chaolu suddenly asked sensitively, I don't know why, she always had a strange feeling lingering in her heart, and she always felt that the mystery in the mirror was about to be revealed, but she finally walked to take a look, but found that it was a virtual scene again.

I thought that this matter involved the secrets of the Shadow Pavilion, and I would definitely ignore it in October, but as soon as Chaolu's voice fell, I stepped down the steps in October, "Come with me, I want to see a lot of portraits." ”

Seeing that Yutai had already gone away, Chaolu and Chen Yao glanced at each other and hurriedly chased after them.

Turn left and right through the dark pavilions of the shadow pavilion, and soon come to an independent attic, and push the door directly into the door in October, the lamps on both sides seem to be equipped with mechanisms and light up one after another with the footsteps of people, Chao Lu only then saw that there were bookshelves and tables in the room, but it was like a place like a study.

“…… And that's just part of it. He walked over to a wall with an oil lamp from the shelf by the door, and raised his hand to illuminate the framed scroll hanging above.

Chao Lu looked up, and was immediately frightened by the picture scroll that hung all over the wall, only to see that the woman in red who jumped on the rice paper was actually a woman in red with different postures - that face Chao Lu recognized at a glance, it was the person who looked seven points similar to Ye Qing on the painting that Ye Qing gave him for safekeeping.

Could it be that this is the Snow Suit?!

"Chaolu, what's wrong with you?" Keenly aware that the feelings of the people around him were wrong, Chen Yao quickly turned his head.

"How could it be......" She pressed her forehead with a splitting headache, and almost sat on the ground, her eyes stung by the portraits of the whole wall.

Yu Xueyi, Ye Qing, what is the relationship between these two people?

After being stunned for a long time, Chaolu took his eyes off the face of the woman in the painting, looked up at Chen Yao on the side, and felt depressed and uncomfortable like pressing a boulder in his heart, "You...... Where did you kill that woman? After saying this, she suddenly felt cold in her limbs, and she only hoped that the answer given by Chen Yao was not what she had guessed.

However, Chen Yao quickly said without thinking: "What's wrong with the woods in the south of Cangzhou? ”

“……”

The conjecture was confirmed, Chaolu wordlessly took two steps back and leaned against the door, the person Chen Yao killed was not Yu Xueyi, but Ye Qing.

"What the hell is going on with you?" Seeing Chaolu's dejected look, Chen Yao walked up to her irritably and grabbed her shoulder, he had never seen such a strange look in Chaolu's heart, Chen Yao had a bad premonition in his heart, he was already upset by these messy things, and now he was in an extremely bad mood.

Chaolu didn't know what he was thinking, so he pushed the other party away the moment Chen Yao walked over, and he also used a little internal force to push Chen Yao, who was defenseless at all, to stagger a few steps, and covered his chest with a stunned face.

"I'm sorry, I—I didn't mean to! Don't come here, don't come here......" Realizing that her internal strength might have hurt the other party, Chaolu continued to retreat at a loss, but when she thought that Chen Yao was the murderer who killed Ye Qing, she didn't know what to do.

Chen Yao's face was very ugly, he did not continue to approach Chaolu, but just stood motionless, silent for a long time, before calmly asking, "...... What am I doing wrong? ”

I didn't expect Chen Yao to ask like this, Chao Lu was stunned, what did he do wrong? Yes, he was a killer, and he never killed people out of his own will, and this time it was completely to help him investigate this matter, in the final analysis, the person who killed Ye Qing was actually himself.

Thinking of this, Chaolu slowly straightened up, and said in a dumb voice: "No, you're right, it's me who is wrong......" She smiled self-deprecatingly, and retreated to the door with stiff steps, looking at Chen Yao, who was expressionless a few meters away, and Yutai October, who had never said a word in the process.

suddenly felt that it was really futile to do these things, and he was busy for a long time, but in the end, not only did he fail to solve any problems, but he also dragged down the people around him and killed Ye Qing.

She stood by the door, her body soaked in the night, smiled slightly tiredly and turned her gaze to the October of the Tai Tai - "The right envoy of the Tai, I'm a little tired, is there a room where I can rest a little?" ”
