Chapter 426: Inquiry

"Alright! I'll go back and report it. www.biquge.info Brother Hu, don't be careless. If he is discovered, he must quickly get out, that kid's martial arts are unfathomable, don't think that he is poisoned and rush to fight for it. ”

"Brother understands, don't nag!"

"Okay, I'll go."

Brother Hu, who disguised himself as an investigator, went around to Hengjiangpu Avenue and took a big stride.

The road stretches southeast along the left bank of the Hengjiang River, and the side facing the river is overgrown with weeds, and the silt on both sides of the river is overgrown with reeds.

The field of view is extremely limited.

After walking two or three miles, there was an old man sitting under a big tree in front of him, with his cane resting on his lap and a normal smile on his face.

He sat still and greeted with a hoarse noise: "Hard work, you just came?" ”

Brother Hu was stunned, quickly stopped, looked at this unattractive villager in confusion, and suddenly became vigilant, and asked, "Do you know me?" We seem to be a little familiar, you are ......"

"Are you tracking down the whereabouts of the two men?" The old man hurriedly said.

"Yes! How do you know? ”

"I also know that it is a young man surnamed Zhou, a girl surnamed Leng."

"Strange, how do you know so clearly? Is it ......?"

"The old man naturally knows, stupid! You have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and you don't know how to lure the enemy? No

Yes, you're not too stupid, and it's a good way to make up for it by asking along the way, but you can't find anything along the way, because they don't go through Hengjiangpu at all. ”

"Hey, you ......"

The old man never let him finish his words, and said with a smile: "There are only two of them, so they can only scatter you with suspicion."

of people. Your companion who went back to report must have brought a lot of people to Hengjiangpu, and if they can't find you, they will never turn back. ”

"How do you know? Are you stalking me? What is your purpose? ”

"Because the old man decided to take care of this stall."

Brother Hu was taken aback when he heard this, took two steps back and said, "You are not good at coming, who are you?" ”

"Huh! Those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come. The old man stood up with a cane: "The old man didn't want to cause trouble, but his friend was favored by others and had to repay the favor." Since you are in charge, you should first find out the inside story, and don't say it, right? ”

"What do you want to do?"

"Tell me everything you know!"

Brother Hu vigilantly reached out to draw the knife, and as soon as his hand touched the handle of the knife, he suddenly froze, and his face suddenly changed.

The old man did not know how he approached him, but the man with a dagger was already standing in front of him, and the tip of the staff was under his throat, and it was enough to kill him by sending him forward.

"If you tell a lie, say a word to the old man and cut you a piece of meat. If I'm satisfied, I'll spare your life. ”

"You...... What do you want to know? ”

"Know everything. This is not the place to talk, come with me! ”

With a "poof" question, Brother Hu was slapped and immediately fell unconscious.

Luoyang Villa is actually an abandoned garden, a summer villa of a large family that exists in name only.

Uncle Luo, the owner of the villa, moved his family to Nanjing as early as two years ago, leaving only two old servants to take care of it.

Gradually, the courtyard grew with weeds, and the pavilions changed beyond recognition. It's long gone from the weather of two years ago.

A big man with a meaty face, wearing a servant's brown shirt, was sweeping the fallen leaves in front of the courtyard gate, when he suddenly screamed "oops", jumped out of the door and exclaimed: "There is a snake, a green bamboo snake!" ”

A short, small green snake that slid into the grass and was fleeting.

The mouth of the green bamboo snake and the needle behind the tail of the wasp are a well-known poison.

In fact, this kind of snake is not too poisonous, but the wound of the person who is bitten will be painful and abnormal, and it is not extremely fatal, and the person with a strong body can be safe and sound if he is lucky enough to be poisoned for a day or two, and it is a very common poisonous snake.

The people in the courtyard gate heard the exclamation, and quickly rushed out of a big man, and the person who held the sweeper asked urgently, "What's wrong?" Injured? ”

"Green Bamboo Snake, ouch! It hurts. ”

"It doesn't matter, I'll help you in and take the medicine, bear with it."

"Ouch! You...... Your right shoulder ......"

The big man instinctively touched his right shoulder with his left hand, and at the same time turned his head to look, and suddenly his back trembled, and he jumped up as if he was jumping, and threw his hand away like a demon.

But it was already a step too late, and the back of his left palm had been bitten by another snake, and his hand was thrown down. The snake was thrown more than ten meters away, fell into the grass, and didn't know where it was.

"Oops! I was also bitten, and it was a red snake. The big man screamed and ran into the courtyard door like crazy.

The red snake is also the most common venomous snake, slightly more poisonous than the green bamboo snake, but not very deadly.

Although the venom of the Red Refining Snake is different from that of the Green Bamboo Snake, the pain caused by the wound is comparable, and it will be extremely uncomfortable if bitten.

The person who was bitten by the cyan bamboo snake looked around, looked around worriedly, shrunk his head, and hurried into the courtyard gate.

Soon, three men came out, took a few branches and searched around for a while, and one of them muttered, "Hell! Where are there poisonous snakes that bite people in broad daylight? I haven't heard of a poisonous snake suddenly climbing on a person's shoulder and biting someone. ”

"Stop talking nonsense!" Another said, "Maybe it fell from a tree." This ghost place has been backing the mountain for two years, and no one walks around, and snakes are common. ”

"Only the green bamboo snake can go up the tree, and the red snake will never fall from the tree, and the gate of the courtyard is not covered by branches."

"Who knows if it's a red snake?"

"Isn't it a conclusion that the wind is a hundred miles? He bandaged him with the same medicine that he used to cure the red snake. ”

"Anyway, there is a hundred miles of wind, and no poisonous snake is afraid. Say a few words and clean up this area, so that you don't have to go in and out at night. ”

Just as a few of them were looking for snakes, a figure quietly retreated in the dense forest dozens of meters away.

Soon in the afternoon, the two big men carried a door panel, hurriedly arrived outside the courtyard gate, and took a closer look at who else was not the Hu brother on the door panel, but he was already unconscious, but a pair of eyes stared at the sky wide, looking still very scary.

At this time, there were four people in the hall, the door panel was lowered, and a big man who carried the person stepped forward to salute the old man with a gloomy face and a cold face: "The subordinates were sent by Zhang Lao to send Brother Hu to ask the seniors to inspect it, Brother Hu seems to be poisoned, his hands and feet are stiff and demented, and he seems to have lost his mind." Please also ask the seniors to come to the rescue. ”

Baili Changfeng came to the side, squatted down and carefully examined Brother Hu for a while.

Long. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not poisoning, his spine was moved, and the back of his head was also injured. ”

"In this way, he was abolished by the surname Zhou."

"What's going on? Did you run into someone surnamed Zhou? Baili Changfeng asked, with a happy look on his face.

The subordinates didn't know the details, but Brother Hu sent someone to report back, saying that he found Leng Mei Shura next to Hengjiang Gate to buy food, and asked the store if Hengjiangpu had a clever herb Langzhong, and it was expected that the surname Zhou and Leng Mei Shura must have left to Hengjiangpu. Brother Hu went to track alone, and the old man Zhang led all the people and rushed to Hengjiangpu to meet him, and found him on the side of the road on the way. ”

"Who has ever seen the surname Zhou?"

"No, the eyeliner we sent, including the people sent by the Luo family in Dongjiang Town to help, has not found any trace of him in or outside the city."

"If Hu Wei was really poisoned by the surnamed Zhou, then he must have obtained Hu Wei's confession."

"This ...... The subordinates don't know. ”

"Where's Elder Zhang?"

"I'm on my way to Yokoeura."

Baili Changfeng frowned, shook his head and said: "Since it was done by the expected surname Zhou, why did Zhang Lao still rush to Genjiangpu?" If that kid had a confession, how could he have left? It's really messing up, if the surname Zhou really hits the scheme, wouldn't it be a lot of Zhang Lao's strength? Really! I need to send someone to tell Bifuzi as soon as possible. ”

"Brother Baili, there is no evidence that the surname Zhou did it." A slender old man on the right said.

Baili Changfeng smiled coldly and said affirmatively: "Can't be wrong, in Hezhou, no one else dares to take this risk and go against our people." ”

"But it's ...... in terms of technique"

"The person surnamed Zhou must have already obtained a confession from Hu Wei's mouth, and he will definitely come to his death tonight, let's pass on the information and prepare well." Baili Changfeng happily ordered: "Come two people, carry Hu Wei into the back and settle down, he is already hopeless." ”

A big man rushed outside the hall, sweating profusely, and said urgently: "Nancheng Zhang's old residence." was invaded by two masked men, a man and a woman, and of the six people left behind, only one was seriously injured, Li Biao, and the others died. ”

Baili Changfeng was taken aback, and his face changed greatly: "How is that possible?" If the surnamed Zhou got Hu Wei's confession, he should have come here, why did he run to Zhang Lao's residence and attack? ”

"The subordinates were ordered to go to Zhang Lao's place to pass on the message of the owner of Ji Zhuang, and they were a step late. According to Li Biao, the figures of a man and a woman are indeed those surnamed Zhou and Leng Mei Shura, and the appearance of the Shuanghua sword surnamed Zhou is obvious, and you can know it at a glance. ”

"Has Li Biao been tortured?"

"No, the two masked men left with one blow, they were very decisive, and they killed people when they shot, Li Biao was injured in the hands of the female masked man, and he was lucky to pick up a life, and the male masked man didn't leave a living mouth under the sword."

"Hurry up and inform the owner of Ji Zhuang of the situation, quickly!"

The messenger hurried away.

Baili Changfeng turned to a companion and said, "Elder Jin, let's prepare now, that kid will come." ”

"Yes, this is prepared, as long as the surname Zhou dares to come, he will not want to leave alive."

Soon, the entire Luoyang villa seemed to have returned to its former desolate appearance. The courtyard door is closed, like an abandoned villa, which looks desolate and silent.

But the real situation is naturally not like this, for example, in the northeast corner of the villa, on the hillside full of bushes, under a bush, there are two big men hiding here, one of them is sleeping, and the other is monitoring the movements of the entire hillside, and from time to time they also use a secret signal to communicate with the other two secret sentinels on the left and right, and take turns to monitor the ground they are responsible for.

They brought food and water, hid in the bushes, watched the movements around them through the gaps in the branches, and were not allowed to leave the hiding place at any time, so as not to expose their location.

They were only responsible for monitoring and transmitting information, and they didn't ask anything else, and even if there was a beautiful woman bathing in front of them, they were not allowed to come out and take a second look.

This group of dark whistles is the middle of the three groups, and it should be the safest group, under this blue sky and white sun, not to mention people and animals, even birds cannot fly close without being detected.

Afternoon is when people are most tired, the person in charge of monitoring is already drowsy, and the resting person has already fallen asleep.

At this time, an iron-gray strange snake with a large triangular giant that looked very much like a wire snake slowly crawled over.

Because its color is close to the ground, it is not easy to spot as it crawls slowly through the grass.

The person in charge of monitoring only felt as if his calf had been stung by something, but he didn't pay attention at first, and he didn't lower his head to see what was going on.

Because there are too many insects and ants in this place, it is very common to be stung.

Blinking an eye and asking, he fell down in a daze.

When he woke up, he only felt numb in his limbs, and his back seemed to be pressed by something. And he pressed his face heavily in the grass, his facial features pressed on the ground, and he couldn't breathe, and then he heard in his ears: "If you want to scream, I will definitely grab you by my neck twice." Be obedient, I promise you won't die. ”

Two of the four sentences are guaranteed, and this dark whistle is slightly widened in his heart. The other party doesn't seem to be a murderer.

The hand clasped around his neck was slightly loose, he could finally breathe, he took a breath, his head was about a little clearer, he felt his body, and his heart, which had been a little wide just now, tensed up again.

He noticed that his body was completely frozen, only his head could be turned slightly, and he also noticed that he was now lying on the ground, and there seemed to be a person sitting on his back.

No matter how confused he was, he knew that he was unfortunate enough to fall into the hands of others.

"You...... Who are you? He asked with difficulty.

"You don't have the right to ask questions, I ask, you answer, you have to die if you answer wrong. The four people in the two secret sentinels on your left and right are all sleeping soundly at the moment. They told the truth, so they didn't die. I don't know if you're interested or not. The man on his back whispered in a relaxed manner.

"You...... You have to ask...... What to ask? ”

"Those people you sent to operate inside and outside the city, when they were captured, they all confessed the above words one by one, this method is quite clever, and those who are not experienced enough will definitely believe it, so that you can lure the tongue-grabbing person to Luoyang Villa and send him to death. But you are the outer whistle, and the mouth supply should be different. Now, let me ask you, where are your masters, Bifuzi and his wife, hiding? ”

"This ......"

"As soon as the words come out of your mouth, they will directly affect the life and death of your own family, whether you tell the truth or not, listen to your respect, anyway, your fate is yours. If you want to die, no one else can stop you. ”
