"This?" Liuyunzhan glanced at Li Luo, and Li Luo said in a harmonious voice: "It is a good thing for the master to understand life and death, but now, it is too early to say. ”

The monk smiled and said: "You baby, Lao Tzu won't let you work in vain, I have a thousand taels of silver here, you take it, it is considered a salary." After speaking, he took out a few silver tickets from his arms, and did not count, but stuffed them to Li Luo, looking at the denomination, there were four or five thousand taels to say the least.

Li Luo flashed slightly, did not take the silver ticket in the monk's hand, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and said, "What did the senior brother say to you before he died?" ”

The monk was stunned for a moment and said, "How do you know ......?"

Li Luo intercepted the monk's words and said lightly: "If something really happens that the master expected, it will definitely be done." ”

The monk was stunned for a moment, scratched his head, glanced at the silver ticket in his hand, threw it on the table, looked at Li Luo and said: "If the monk is not dead, you will return the silver ticket to me, if the monk is dead, this silver ticket will still give you a better look." After speaking, he didn't wait for Li Luo to excuse himself, and went upstairs to leave.

Liuyunzhan looked at Li Luo, there was more or less resentment between his eyebrows, Li Luo only didn't see it, glanced at the silver ticket on the table, sighed slightly, and said to Li Yuanxi: "You take it first." ”

After saying that, he took a few steps forward and walked to the hall, everyone left, but there were still a few corpses of the merchants under the hall that no one cared for, Li Luo and Liuyunzhan, together with Leng Bing Li Yuanxi, put the corpses of the tragically dead merchants aside, found a few straw mats, and covered them first.

Fortunately, it was quite stormy outside, but it was still colder, otherwise in this hot season, in a few days, the corpse would have rotted and stinked.

Liuyunzhan didn't know whether he was not used to the smell of blood or was compassionate, and frowned and said nothing. After cleaning up, Leng Bing looked at the few people under the straw mat, and said in a cold voice: "It was killed by someone close to him." ”

Li Luo snorted, glanced upstairs, and said indifferently: "Bury them tomorrow." ”

Liuyunzhan's lips moved slightly, and he looked at Li Luo and stopped, only to let out a long sigh. Li Luo's heart darkened, and Liuyun Zhan obviously blamed Li Luo for the last words with the monk, and turned the minds of everyone in the room to this monk.

The murderer is naturally among them, just seeing that the murderer did not hesitate to take risks, and after extinguishing the lights, he took advantage of the chaos to assassinate the monk's brother, and it was known that the middle-aged man obviously knew something secret, and before the man could say it, he started to kill people and kill them.

It's just that in this way, the murderer must be in the crowd in the original hall, so dangerous, the middle-aged man knows that the thing must be extraordinary, if he really said it to the monk before he died, the monk is in an extremely dangerous situation, Li Luo only cut off the monk's words, although I don't know if the middle-aged man said the secret thing to the monk, but the murderer is afraid that it is necessary to get rid of it quickly.

One night, the inn was unusually quiet, the candles and wind lamps in the hall were unattended, and after a few hours, the last cloud of green smoke was burned, and the darkness suddenly shrouded the inn, catering to the bleak wind and rain outside the house, and the wooden ghosts in the distance were connected into a line, and the gloomy atmosphere was gloomy.

In the early morning of the second day, there was nothing to do in the inn all night, and a glimmer of light barely seeped out of the gloomy sky, impartially, and shone on the bodies of several dead bodies in the hall.

Everyone stayed in their respective rooms, secretly calculating, suddenly a scream came from downstairs, the voice fell, the air seemed to be condensed, and after a silence, several figures flew out of the guest room, and covered the place where the sound came from, when he saw the person who screamed in horror, Uncle Tai frowned and asked, "It's Mr. Duan, what's wrong?" ”

"He, he, he ......" Duan Jiang's lips turned blue, and he was speechless.

Tang Mengjue said gently: "Mr. Duan, speak slowly, don't be afraid. The voice penetrated his heart and lungs, warm and clear, Duan Jiang took a few breaths, calmed down, looked horrified, and said intermittently: "I, I saw the boss of the Deng family." ”

"Where?" Taishu Gu and Tang Mengjue were slightly startled and hurriedly asked.

Duan Jiang raised his hand and pointed to the window, it was the place where the dead body was put last night, Song Wuxia flashed to the side of the corpse, glanced at it, and said, "There is no abnormality." ”

Everyone upstairs walked out of the room, only the Taoist priest of the fairy temple did not show up, Yi Xiao frowned and said, "Aren't they all dead?" ”

"What do you see the boss of the Deng family doing?" Uncle Tai Gu asked.

Duan Jiang looked frightened, shrank back several steps, and replied in an astringent voice: "I saw him squatting next to the corpse, picking something from the dead man, and he turned around and smiled at me, and I saw clearly that what he was holding in his hand was that person's heart." ”

In the end, Duan Jiang cried out loud, and a peculiar smell came out, Tang Mengjue and Uncle Gu Wei looked sideways, but Duan Jiang was so frightened that he was incontinent.

Song Wuxia picked up the straw mat covering the dead corpse, his expression was shocked, and he whispered, "There is a dead corpse whose heart is missing." ”

A few people upstairs couldn't hold it anymore, jumped down, and came to the corpse, and sure enough, their chests were in a mess, and their hearts were nowhere to be seen. Everyone's hearts were cold, but they didn't want to even let go of the corpse, Yi Xiao looked at Duan Jiang's hands, there was no blood on his hands, and then he retracted his gaze, stared at the dead corpse, and said in a deep voice: "Why didn't we hear any movement at all?" ”

Everyone in the inn had their own thoughts, or stood upstairs or standing next to the corpse, quietly pondering, with different expressions, but no one answered. Mu Xiaoxia suddenly remembered something and asked the old man surnamed Huang, "Old Huang, has the cause of my brother's death been found?" ”

The old man surnamed Huang's face sank, and said: "No, there are no wounds around the body, and it doesn't seem to be poisoned, the lights were too dim last night, so I didn't have time to check carefully, and the old man will take a closer look today." ”

Mu Xiao sighed, turned his head to look at Li Luo, who was standing at the railing and looked down, and asked with a smile, "What does Shen Gongzi think?" ”

Li Luo shook his head lightly and sighed, "Why bother. ”

"The perpetrator obviously didn't expect Mr. Mu to have such a move, and now everyone in the inn is on guard, and if they want to wait for the opportunity to make a move, they must first create a panic among the people before they can find an opportunity to move, and this move is probably to disturb our minds." Liuyun stack answered on the side.

Mu Xiaoxia nodded approvingly and said, "This murderer can't be hidden for long." ”

Yi Xiao looked up at Mu Xiaoxia upstairs, and said with a rather strange expression: "But there is no food available in the inn, as long as the murderer waits patiently for a few more days, until the burial of the sky stops, we can only stand by." ”

Mu Xiaoxia laughed and said, "The envoy is extremely worried, so we have to see if anyone can find something to eat." ”

Hearing this, a few warriors from the Western Regions next to him continued: "The horses we brought are still there, so it's better to kill the horses first to satisfy their hunger and survive these few days before making plans." ”

Mu Xiaoxia said coldly: "It makes sense, but your Excellency had better hope that the murderer did not think of the horses outside the inn." (To be continued.) )
