People die like lights going out, Xu Jun hesitated, but still stretched out his hand and slowly took off the demon monk's face towel.

It is very likely that Heavenly Court has something to do with the murderer who killed the upper and lower levels of the Xu Mansion, and Xu Jun has to grasp any clues. He carefully observed the face of the demon monk and found that the demon monk looked very solemn and solemn, giving people a sense of compassion for the vicissitudes of life. God always likes to joke, and it has to be said that it is a kind of irony that such a face of an accomplished monk actually appeared on the face of a killer.

Xu Jun sighed, dug two big pits, and buried the demon monk and the four mourning boys and girls. He broke a big tree with one punch, split a section of the trunk, stuck it on the grave of the demon monk, thought about it, and carved a line of words on the trunk with his finger.

"Died at the age of twenty and was buried at the age of fifty. The Tomb of the Demon Monk. ”

Xu Jun didn't know the specific age of the demon monk, so he could only roughly estimate it from the face of the demon monk. But he knew one thing, that is, the heart of the demon monk had died decades ago, when Mu Linger betrayed him.

Xu Jun looked up at the sky, it was almost noon, and he was busy picking some wild fruits and returning to the tree hole.

Xiao Qi took the dagger, curled up in the corner of the tree hole and said, "Who." ”

"Your young master, me."

"Young master, why did you come back, Xiao Qi thought that the young master didn't want Xiao Qi anymore."

Little Seven Bean's big tears flowed straight down, and he cried when he threw himself on Xu Jun's shoulder. Xu Jun hurriedly wiped the tears on Xiao Qi's cheeks and said, "Don't cry, the young master won't leave Xiao Qi, eat some wild fruits to satisfy your hunger first." ”

The wild fruit was sour and astringent, very unpalatable, and the sour Xu Junya was poured. Xu Jun grinned and said, "Xiao Qi, just now some officers and soldiers came to the mountain and were killed by the young master. We will now go to the officers and soldiers to ride their horses and hide in the wilderness for a while. ”

Xiao Qi nodded, and the two of them hurriedly drilled out of the tree hole and found more than a dozen unusually tall horses on the side of the path below the mountain. These sycophants. There are official seals on the stocks, reminding Xu Jun that this is a war horse, and ordinary people are not allowed to ride it. Otherwise, once it is discovered by the government, it will definitely be recovered.

The two of them each chose a war horse, and it took nearly ten days to finally come to Qingyang City.

"Xiao Qi, these two war horses can't enter the city, let them go."

Xiao Qi nodded, the two took their luggage, accepted the investigation of the officers and soldiers at the city gate, handed over the silver, and entered the city.

The barbarian army has retreated, Qingyang City has regained its former prosperity, Xu Jun and Xiao Qi found a cloth shop, bought two sets of clean clothes to change into, and found a restaurant to eat a meal, and decided to find an inn to take a bath and rest for one night, and then continue to rush tomorrow.

However, what made Xu Jun speechless was that he and Xiao Qiyi had found three inns in a row and there were no vacant rooms, which made him a little strange, and he asked the innkeeper curiously: "Shopkeeper, why are there so many outsiders living in the hotel all of a sudden?" ”

The shopkeeper was busy settling accounts and didn't pay attention to Xu Jun at all. Seeing this, Xiao Qi hurriedly took out a string of copper coins and stuffed them into the shopkeeper's hand, and the shopkeeper's poker face instantly became extremely enthusiastic.

"This master, you have just entered Qingyang City, and you don't know such big news. The five barbarian divisions attacked the city in a big way, Qingyang City was in an emergency, and the general Feng Potian united the martial arts people and officers and soldiers to attack at both ends, and attacked the barbarian barracks at night, killing many barbarian generals, forcing the barbarian army to retreat, and relieving the siege of Qingyang City. ”

"Oh." Xu Jun nodded, faintly understanding, no wonder there were so many people wearing swords suddenly appeared in Qingyang City. However, he was still a little puzzled: "Didn't the martial arts people all go to the Wulong Peak of that Great Snow Mountain to participate in the martial arts conference, how could they suddenly join forces with the general?" ”

The shopkeeper was dumbfounded, and looked Xu Jun up and down like an idiot: "Master, you are too ill-informed. The reason why this martial arts conference was chosen in the Five Dragons Peak of the Wild Snow Mountain was to deter the five wild tribes that were about to move. Unexpectedly, Mao Dun of the Huns killed his father, and he didn't care about the deterrence of the martial arts people at all, so he persuaded the other four to join forces to attack the city. I heard that in this battle, many martial arts masters died in the hands of Mao Dun. ”

"What about the martial arts conference?" Xu Jun asked.

"Of course the time has been changed, haven't you seen so many martial arts people staying in the hotel, it's because the martial arts conference was temporarily rescheduled to be held in Qingyang City, and it won't start until tomorrow."

Xu Jun frowned and said, "Shopkeeper, I still don't understand, why didn't the martial arts conference be selected in Qingyang City at the beginning?" Isn't that safer, so why bother? ”

The shopkeeper was speechless, as if to say where did you get so many problems? The whole problem baby. However, for the sake of the silver, he still said patiently: "This lord, do you know that the current emperor Qin Batian has always regarded the martial arts people as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, and he can't wait to receive all the martial arts people to the imperial court." Once Great Qin defeated the Barbarian Five, it was equivalent to freeing up his hands to eliminate the disobedient martial artists. Therefore, the various factions of the martial arts did not want the Barbarian Five to attack Great Qin, and they also did not want to see Daqin eliminate the Barbarian Five. ”

The shopkeeper talked endlessly for a long time, and he didn't care if the account was not settled. Xu Jun nodded in admiration and said, "So the shopkeeper is so knowledgeable." ”

"Where, where, I think I was also an outer disciple of the Amano Dan Sect back then, but because of my limited talents, I had no choice but to be kicked out of the sect, so I opened such an inn. This master doesn't know yet, among the six righteous sects of Great Qin, only our Tianye Dan sect is mainly based on alchemy, and the exercises are the most weird. Do you know why the disciples of the Tianye Dan Sect can't get along with the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace, there is an allusion to this. ”

The shopkeeper's mouth was foaming, as if he recalled the good times in the past, and he wanted to talk at night, Xu Jun hurriedly interrupted him: "This shopkeeper, we still have important things to do, so we won't bother." ”

"Alas, don't go, sir, just chatted with interest. It's hard to meet someone so talkative, let's talk again. The shopkeeper looked at Xu Jun's figure of leaving in a hurry, shook his head in disappointment, and continued to settle accounts.

Xu Jun and Xiao Qi left the inn, searched for a long time, and finally found a house for sale and solved the problem of accommodation.

The man who sold the house was a young woman of about 30 years old, whose husband was an officer and soldier, who unfortunately died in the rain of arrows from the barbarian army, leaving her and her two newly sensible children. The young woman took a pension and was ready to sell the property and return to her hometown to join her relatives.

Xu Jun was deeply sympathetic to the young woman's plight, and he happily paid the money and moved into the house.

The shopkeeper of the inn said that the martial arts conference will only be held tomorrow. In any case, he was going to make a trip. Not to see the excitement, but to investigate the murderer who killed Xu's house. He wanted to find the person who wrote the letter and ask about Xu Zhiqiao's whereabouts. As long as he finds Xu Zhiqiao, he believes that the truth will be revealed.

Of course, this alone is not enough for him to buy the house, although he usually spends money lavishly, but now it is not as good as in the past, the Xu family's industry is all due to it, he and Xiaoqi have no income, sit on the empty mountain, and spend a little less.

The most important reason why he bought the mansion was because the Xu Mansion was finished, and he needed a place to stay. Daqin is his root, no matter where he and Xiao Qi go, they will still come back sooner or later.
