"Exactly, Master Xu is good." Ah Ying replied politely.

Master Xu dusted off his sleeves, walked over, stretched out his left hand, and said respectfully: "The air in the house is not smooth, please move outside to talk." ”

Ruan Lingyu didn't follow, took the towel from the maid's hand, and continued to wipe Xu Annian's sweat.

"I heard Lingyu say, the day before yesterday, it was Miss Ah Ying who helped her, and the child was able to save her life, Xu thanked the girl here, if it weren't for the girl, my Xu family would have to send a white-haired person to a black-haired person today." Master Xu bowed his hand, grateful from the bottom of his heart, Ah Yu hurriedly said: "It's just a gesture, Gongzi Jiren has his own natural appearance, and Master Xu doesn't have to worry too much." ”

A few people came to the front hall, the maid served tea for the three of them, and Master Xu said: "A few days ago, Xiao'er accidentally fell into the water, and when I heard about it, I only felt a cold sweat, and now there is such a thing, which is really shocking." I think I have accumulated virtue and done good deeds all my life, and I have not done anything wrong, but I have not realized that I have so many disasters and difficulties. ”

Ah Ying picked up the teacup and asked, "Master Xu has some enemies, the son is still young and kind, I don't think he is a person who will hold grudges with others." ”

"It is precisely because of this that I have also guessed whether I offended someone who should not be offended when I was young, and now people are coming to take revenge, but even so, this should not be counted on my son."

Ah Ying seemed to think of something, and the tea that was about to enter was put down again.

"My lord knows about the recent murder of the city god."

"I know, the government also invited me to check, the situation has not developed to this extent at that time, just a few men have an accident, I didn't expect that in just half a month, more than ten people have died one after another, the murderer has not yet been brought to justice, and the modus operandi is extremely cruel, which makes people feel chilled when they look at it."

"Master Xu, what have you found out? Is it convenient to reveal? Ah Ying asked.

Xu Huisheng nodded and said, "Those men are all infected with malaria, and through the autopsy, we found that most of the medicinal materials they take on weekdays are also the same, they should be from a pharmacy, and before they were killed, they were all anesthetic. However, after the government searched the whole city according to the prescription I had prepared, they did not find out who made the medicine, which is really strange, and it is obviously the most common medicine. ”

"Malaria?" Gu Zhan was puzzled.

"Yes, the first two or three people did have infectious diseases, fortunately they were dealt with in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."

Ah Ying asked again: "Then Master Xu, do you still have a follow-up on this case?" It's been so long, and there's not a bit of progress? ”

"At the beginning, the government asked me to follow up, but then the situation was serious, and the people in the city were in turmoil, and the government was afraid of causing trouble, so they didn't let me continue, but Lord Tang has been following up. I don't know if there is a hidden secret or what, this murderer has never been caught. ”

Ah Ying thought for a moment and said, "Master Xu, have you ever wondered if the people who murdered Ling Gongzi one after another will have anything to do with this case." ”

Xu Huisheng was silent for a moment, frowned, and said, "Could it be that he is the murderer of this case?" Because I was involved in solving the case, he was afraid that I would find out something, so did he give me a warning? But... In addition to malaria, prescriptions, and anesthetics, I haven't found anything else, could it be that these clues are really related to the key to solving the case? But the government also knows it, but there is no progress..."

"If you think about it, you've noticed any other small details that didn't catch the eye. Xu Gongzi has only recently begun to be targeted, and the possibility of retaliation for some old things should be unlikely, so the only possibility is the investigation that you have participated in in the past half a month. ”

Xu Huisheng felt that what Ah Ying said made sense, and after thinking about it carefully, he still couldn't remember it for a while, he patted his forehead, and said helplessly: "Hey, now that I'm older, I really can't remember many things when I think about them suddenly." ”

Ah Ying took a sip of tea and said, "It's okay, I'll always think of it, Master Xu has been working hard recently." ”

After noon, the weather began to turn cloudy, and the afternoon was heavy, and the wind was still carrying gusts of heat, blowing people's heads to swell.

Master Xu was extremely enthusiastic about his life-saving benefactor, and he had to leave the two of them for dinner together, but Ah Ying Gu Zhan couldn't stand Master Xu's good talk, so he stayed.

After dinner, Master Xu dragged the two of them to talk for a long time, seeing that it was not early, Ah Ying Gu Zhan was about to leave, but at this time, he saw the old housekeeper running in a hurry, his face was panicked, and he whispered a few words in Xu Huisheng's ear, and Xu Huisheng was also stunned.

Ah Ying felt strange, so she asked, "Master Xu, what happened?" ”

Xu Huisheng glanced at the two of them, very hesitant, "Ah Ying girl, I'll tell you the truth, in fact, An Nian's condition has not improved, I have been using ginseng soup to renew his life for the past few days, but he vomited blood just now, I want you to go over and take a look, what do you think." ”

Ah Ying pursed her lips and said, "Master Xu, you can't do anything if your medical skills are so exquisite, what can I do?" …”

At this time, the old housekeeper on the side stepped forward and said with a worried expression: "Girl, please go and take a look, maybe you will have some strange prescriptions, the young master's illness really can't wait..."

Seeing this situation, Ah Ying really couldn't leave, so he responded and hurriedly followed.

Everyone rushed all the way, and they heard the crying of the maid in the distance, and Master Xu paused, as if he had some bad premonition.

Just as everyone was coming back to their senses, a person suddenly rushed out of the room - Ruan Lingyu. I saw her stumbling out, with a strand of hair on her forehead, and she pounced on everyone as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Xu Huisheng immediately grabbed her, obviously frightened by her appearance.

"Uncle Xu, go and take a look, An Nian he... Ann Nian he... It's almost gone! Ruan Lingyu choked up, her voice was a little hoarse, and her eyes were a little wide, as if she had been seriously frightened.

When Xu Huisheng heard this, he helped Ruan Lingyu and immediately walked into the house, Ah Ying and Gu Zhan glanced at each other, and followed closely.

As soon as Xu Huisheng entered, he saw his son dying on the bed, and what was even more shocking was that there was a wound on his neck, and he could see at a glance that this was done by a dagger, at this time, the wound was oozing fine blood, and Xu Huisheng was so frightened that he almost couldn't stand on his legs.

Ah Ying didn't know what was going on inside, and when she stepped into the house with one foot, she felt the wind on the top of her head, and her anger went straight down, and her heart suddenly tightened.

The other party's speed was extremely fast, Gu Zhan pulled Ah Ying from behind, Ah Ying immediately leaned back, Gu Zhan punched out in the wind, the white shadow on the beam flashed, and his body spun and landed in the center of the house.

The maids in the house were already holding a string, and they didn't dare to make a sound, and the woman in white suddenly appeared in the middle of the house, and the frightened maids and women immediately ran around to dodge, and the house became a pot of porridge.

Without waiting for the woman in white to stand firm, Gu Zhan rushed forward with an arrow step, hunting with his fists, as if he was going to overturn the house.

Ah Ying stood at the door, staring at the woman in white's every move, this figure technique, who was not the person who assassinated Xu Annian that day?! Again? Or is it coming for her?!

Ah Ying thought about it quickly, no wonder she felt that Ruan Lingyu was wrong from the first time they met today, it must be the woman in white who used Xu Annian as a threat to force her to come to her mansion, and then squatted here to wait for the rabbit. I just saved Xu Annian's life, and after fighting with her, she wanted her life, what a vicious person!

However, she was obviously skilled, so why didn't she just kill Xu Annian and Ruan Lingyu first, and then find her for a surprise attack? Unless she has some scruples, but what are she scruples? The two have fought each other, don't she know how many pounds and taels she has? Is it because she is afraid that she will be protected by a master? This is not right, with her skills, it can be said that she is still a step above Gu Zhan, and there is nothing to worry about at all. Then the only possibility is...

Ah Ying looked at the two people who were fighting together in front of him, Gu Zhan was good at close combat, every punch was full of strength, on the other hand, although the speed was still the same, he always felt that his body was not as flexible as that day.

So, the only possibility is that she was injured, and it wasn't light.

Ah Yu twisted his left hand lightly, and slowly lucked, and the silver bracelet was suddenly shrouded in a thin layer of black gas.

Gu Zhan's left leg bent, his right fist came out, and his right leg spun around, Jiang Zhi had been forced to the wall, with nowhere to go, and he was really punched. She immediately suppressed some of the churning aura, and a dagger appeared in her right hand, and without any extra moves, she stabbed it fiercely.

Gu Zhan stabilized his footsteps, blocked the opponent's dagger with his right hand, but also pulled the distance between the two. The corners of Jiang Zhi's mouth hooked, her left hand flipped over, and a palm came out of the air, Gu Zhan didn't have time to react, so he subconsciously raised his left arm to block, and then swept his right leg, flipped up with his strength, and kicked Jiang Zhi's hand away.

Jiang Zhi bent her legs, her body was short, and taking advantage of the gap when Gu Zhan had no foothold in the air, she jumped towards the door with a sweep.

At the door, Ah Yu had already guessed her intentions, pressed her left palm, mobilized the true qi of her whole body, the silver bell buzzed, and the moment her right hand was raised, it was knotted in the air, and at this time, Jiang Zhi was already approaching the front door, and the two shot at the same time, and they were comparable.

Behind him, Gu Zhan also saw Jiang Zhi's problem, according to Ah Jin's description to him, this person's skill could never be only at this level, even if Ah Jin's internal strength was profound, it was absolutely impossible for the two to tie.

Gu Zhanfei stepped forward and smashed a punch at the back of Jiang Zhi's head, restraining the front and back sides, and being restricted by the house, she couldn't run away this time!

The wind in the back of her head suddenly rose, Jiang Zhi's face immediately turned gloomy, and she wanted to stop her? ! Jiang Zhi's hind legs slived, her body turned, her right leg kicked, and her left palm struck again, only in a few snaps of her fingers, Jiang Zhi mobilized her whole body's true qi and shot back at Gu Zhan and Ah Ying at the same time.

Both of them were shocked, Gu Zhan punched out, but Jiang Zhi was short, directly below his arm, and kicked his right foot his chest. Looking at Ah Jin's side again, Jiang Zhi turned around for a moment, and her left palm came out in an instant, and Ah Ying had to use her right hand to resist directly, and she suddenly weakened.

Jiang Zhi twisted her eyebrows, after all, she stood out from a hundred killers, and she had not missed a mission for many years, how many times she had brushed shoulders with death, and she had reversed the situation, this time, how could she lose at the hands of the two of them?!

But after all, she was seriously injured, and now she suddenly raised the true qi of her whole body, it was inevitable that she couldn't resist it, and her face turned white at once, taking advantage of the fact that both of them were difficult to resist, she attacked with her left and right hands at the same time, and the quenched needles swooped out, stabbing Xu Annian and Ah Jin.

Ah Jin's eyes are not good, but her hearing is excellent, and she heard the sound of a thin needle cutting through the air, and immediately leaned back, using her waist as a support point, and with a twist of her upper body, the thin needle grazed her hair and ejaculated.

Gu Zhan naturally saw this scene very clearly, seeing the thin needles flying out, Jiang Zhi approached Ah Zhi, he immediately took three steps and made two steps, grabbed forward, and grabbed a strand of Jiang Zhi's hair.

Jiang Zhi's scalp was numb, her body was stunned, and Ah Ying hit her heart with a palm, Jiang Zhi only felt like thousands of insects tearing and gnawing in her heart, and the pain was unbearable.

"Lingyu girl!" Aunt Kang exclaimed, Ah Ying followed the sound and took a look, only to see Ruan Lingyu's face pale, propped up on the head of the bed with one hand, and her body crooked on the side of the bed, it was actually Xu Annian who blocked the poisonous needle!

Jiang Zhi covered her chest, and when Ah Zhan was distracted, she waved the dagger and stabbed Ah Zhan, who knew that before she got close, Gu Zhan strangled her neck behind her, and when she took it back, Ah Zhan immediately reflected and kicked away the dagger in her hand, so as not to reflexively stab Gu Zhan.

Jiang Zhi was strangled by her neck, only to feel that it was difficult to breathe, coupled with the erosion of the Ah Yu Gu worms, Jiang Zhi felt that the world was spinning for a moment.

As soon as she gritted her teeth, she slammed straight back, and with a single kick, she broke free from Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan was bumped by her, and he felt that his nose was about to bleed.
