Chapter 10: The Mystery of the Mist Mountain

At the time of the third watch, the town was peaceful, and the hustle and bustle of the day was all zero, and the repair was for a better start. A group of eight masked men in black broke the silence of the night. They walked to the inn where Shang Hong and his party were staying, and Shang Hong, who seemed to be asleep, opened his eyes sharply and shouted into the darkness: "There is no forgiveness for killing." ”

Shang Hong got up slowly, his room was in the corner of the second floor, and when he walked to the aisle, he saw that there were already two forces facing each other in the lobby on the first floor, with eight people on one side and four people on the other. Shang Hong stood with his hands in his hands, as if everything in the world was like nothing, and he was lonely.

Soon the two forces began to fight, and every move was a killing move, leaving no way back. The sound of fighting provoked the innkeepers, and faces from the room, either confused, frightened, or helpless, walked out of the room.

"Childe." Zhong Yu walked to Shang Hong's side, his face gloomy.

Shang Hong nodded at Zhong Yu and continued to watch the battle.

"Ah, these four people are so good." Nian Xiaojiao suddenly stretched out her little head from the middle of the two, and was very excited when she saw a fight. The aggressive factor in the heart is ready to move.

Zhong Yu turned around and glanced at Qing Yu behind Xiao Jiao meaningfully. Seeing Zhong Yu looking over, Qing Yu turned her head awkwardly to look to the side.

Back to the battle situation, two of the eight people on the side had fallen to the ground, obviously at a disadvantage, and the remaining six people saw that the situation was not good, and one of the leaders said in a deep voice: "Withdraw." ”

Six mermaids, each with their own injuries, rushed out.

"No need to chase anymore." Shang Hong spoke. The other group of four people wanted to chase them out, but after listening to Shang Hong's words, they retracted their steps.

"Your manpower? Kung Fu is good. Xiaojiao patted Shang Hong on the shoulder.

"Zhong Yu went down to investigate." Shang Hong pushed away Xiaojiao's hand and said to Zhong Yu.

"Yes." Zhong Yu climbed over the handrail on the second floor, flew down, swirled around and raised his sleeves and flew to the ground, causing the female guests to cheer and cheer: "Little brother is very skilled." ”

Qing Yu was stunned, thinking that it was really a love performance.

After Zhong Yu investigated the two of them on the ground, he shook his head at Shang Hong upstairs.

Seeing that the assassin had left, the innkeeper said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, it was purely an accident, an accident. ”

"Hmph, I almost lost my life, and the boss thought about ending it with an accident?"

"Today, it's free today." For the sake of reputation, the boss said helplessly, if you want to talk about the compensation for the damaged things, looking at the four deities of the fierce gods, the boss does not dare to mention it in order to save his life. Breaking the wealth and eliminating the disaster, the boss has a broken heart.

"Why don't you clean up this place quickly?" After losing the overnight room fee, the boss was very painful, and he didn't have a good tone for the little guy.

The frightened little guy trembled forward and carried the two people away, who were no longer alive.

Shang Hong waved his hand at the four people downstairs, and the four of them scattered and disappeared outside the door.

"Go back and rest." Shang Hong Chongnian Xiaojiao and Qing Yu said, "Zhong Yu come to my room." After speaking, Shang Hong threw down Xiao Jiao, who was staring at and waving his fists, and returned to the room.

After Shang Hong and Zhong Yu sat down, Zhong Yu said: "The injury is not fatal, both of them took poison orally, and when they saw that they could not escape, they committed suicide by taking poison." ”

"As expected." Shang Hong looked out the window thoughtfully: "Go back and rest." ”

"Yes, Childe be careful." Zhong Yu clasped his fists and saluted and withdrew.

The next day, everything was the same, there was a lot of traffic in front of the inn, some people checked out and left, some people checked in with exhaustion, as if last night's murder had never happened. People live and some people worry about death like a lamp goes out, so it is best to live.

"Qing Yu, what happened last night has something to do with you?" Seeing Qing Yu sitting alone at the table and chair in the courtyard of the inn to rest, Zhong Yu stepped forward and asked.

"If I say it's not me, will you believe it?" Qing Yu spread his hands, playing innocent with a face.

"It's better not you. No matter what your purpose is for following us, if I find out that you have ill intentions towards Childe or Miss Nian, don't blame me for being polite. Zhong Yu has always been gentle with women, and has never been so verbal.

He didn't know why he was so anxious and depressed, as Childe's personal guard, for safety reasons, he should have driven this suspicious woman away as soon as possible. But the ghost made the god hide it for her, but I don't know it, is it confident that it will not be hindered to protect the child? Still can't bear this seemingly harmless woman to leave?

"What are you two talking about?" Xiaojiao packed up and came over. Still dressed in a light and elegant outfit, light blue dress, embroidered with iris unchanged, this time it is full of dark blue iris flowers, it is good-looking, although the appearance is mediocre with a mask, but it is also refreshing and aura, especially a pair of eyes are clean and thorough, and you want to indulge in it at a glance. Xiaojiao goes out to avoid trouble, and she shows people in the appearance of peach blossom masks, after all, the first beauty in the moon is not a false name.

"No, Zhong Gongzi said that even if last night's incident happened again, with him there, Miss and Shang Gongzi would be able to ensure that Miss and Shang Gongzi were worry-free." Qing Yu winked playfully at Zhong Yu.

"Haha, who is the one who can't do more than ten moves under me? You don't have to protect me. Xiao Jiao smiled haughtily, seeing that Zhong Yu's face was getting ugly, Qing Yu's smile deepened and deepened, Xiao Jiao hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”

"How many martial arts monsters like you can be your opponents?" Zhong Yu's martial arts are superior, and he never thought that meeting a girl at random would be stronger than him: "There are few demons like you in the world." ”

At this time, Shang Hong, who was still dressed in a black suit, said: "Everyone come to the lobby, there has been an accident in the town recently." ”

The group walked to the lobby, just at breakfast time, three or three people were eating breakfast, Shang Hong and others found a table and chair where no one sat down, and told the little maid to have some breakfast.

"I've heard that it didn't happen again last night."

"What?"

"A few days ago, there were children missing in the town for days, and this period of time has stopped, I thought it would not happen again, but I never thought that it started again yesterday."

……

Listening to the discussion of the inn residents, Xiaojiao and the others looked at each other.

"Can Childe find out the cause?" Zhong Yu asked.

Shang Hong shook his head: "I just heard about it today." ”

"It's really an animal, and the children don't let it go." Xiaojiao was indignant and angry.

"Childe, why don't you leave today, let's investigate?" Zhong Yu also had a solemn face.

"Uh-huh." Qing Yu nodded repeatedly.

Shang Hong looked at the three of them: "Invite everyone to discuss, that's exactly what I mean, I have sent someone out to find out the news, we can just wait here." ”

Late at night that day, the night was dark and the wind was high, Shang Hong was sleepless, and the handsome and cold boy sat alone in the room drinking tea. Suddenly, a strong wind rose from the window of Shang Hong's room, and a man in black flashed in.

"Childe." The people who came bent down to salute and were very respectful.

"Sit." Shang Hong was as concise as ever.

The man in black who grabbed the window and sat down opposite Shang Hong. After a secret conversation, Shang Hong knew that tonight, several people wearing white fat doll masks broke into the town, and the other party broke into a farmer's house to steal the child, but fortunately was discovered by the people sent by Shang Hong, saved the child, and avoided a disaster.

The thief's technique is very similar to the assassination of the eight people last night, and it should have come from a gang.

"Have you caught the thief?" Shang Hong asked.

"The little incompetence tracked him to the foggy mountain outside the town, was trapped in the fog, and when he got out of trouble, he lost his trace." Someone came back and forth.

"It's okay, I'll personally investigate one party tonight to see who the young man is."

Shang Hong waved his hand, and the visitor jumped out of the window and disappeared.

The misty mountain is very easy to lose its direction because of the white fog all year round, and if you don't know the direction in the deep mountains, the danger is self-evident. The people of the town only dared to hunt on the periphery, and they had never heard of anyone setting foot in it to save their lives.

Shang Hong knocked on the wall and rushed to the next room: "It's action." ”

After a while, Zhong Yu walked to Shang Hong's room, and the two of them left the room after discussing it, and went straight to the Foggy Mountain.

"Shhh In the dark, the bluestone road in the town was uninhabited, Xiaojiao and Qingyu followed at some point, the two of them flickered left and right, hiding in the dark buildings, and followed far away.

After leaving the town and walking to the vicinity of the Fog Mountain, Shang Hong's eyes narrowed slightly, and a short blade shot at the edge of the boulder behind him: "Who?" Stealthy. ”

The expected enemy did not appear, only a woman's coquettish cry was heard.

"Ouch." In order to avoid the short blade, Nian Xiaojiao fell into the rocks: "It's me, it's me." "In order to avoid being regarded as an enemy, hurry up and report to your home.

"Miss." Qing Yu helped Xiaojiao, and the two of them got up in embarrassment.

Shang Hong saw the two of them dressed in tight-fitting martial arts, Xiaojiao was slim, her face was white and flawless in the moonlight, and Qing Yu was also a small jasper and moving. Seeing the person coming, Shang Hong's face became more and more ugly: "It's dangerous here, girl, please go back." ”

"My defeated general Zhong Yu can come, why can't I?" Xiaojiao said dissatisfiedly, and her little hands irritably pulled away the messy hair on her face, but when she fell, she rubbed her hands full of yellow mud and wiped her face, like a playful little flower cat.

"There are many traps here, dangerous and abnormal, it is not a high level of kung fu, and if you are not careful, you will have to worry about your life." Zhong Yu said patiently: "Miss Nian, the son is also thinking about your safety." ”

"Even if it's the Longtan Tiger's Den, I've made it." Xiao Jiao is full of energy, and a once-in-a-lifetime adventure opportunity is not to be missed.

Shang Hong saw that Xiaojiao didn't hit the south wall and didn't look back, and said lightly: "Keep up." ”

After about a pillar of incense, Shang Hong stroked the big tree beside him: "Can you find anything abnormal?" ”

"It's business as usual." Xiao Jiao said with a grin.

"I've seen this tree before." Shang Hong looked around in contemplation.

"Yes, I see every tree looks the same." Xiaojiao patted the tree that Shang Hong was referring to: "Are you thinking too much." ”

Shang Hong ignored Xiaojiao's noise, flew into the air, waited for it to land, and pointed in one direction: "In the center of the fog, there is an area where there is no fog, let's go there." Zhong Yu, mark the trees along the road, don't lose your way. ”

The group continued to move forward, and everywhere they passed, Zhong Yu carved marks on the trees.
