Chapter 50: The Old Man Meets
"Hmph, I just heard that you found evidence, I want to see if you can make a profit, I didn't think it was a broken bowl, I don't know why you want to fly so hard to lock it, just put it in the bowl pile?"
The pockmarked face obviously looks down on them, and he doesn't look at people with his eyes when he speaks.
“……”
Hearing him say this, several people looked at each other, and really felt that what this person said was very reasonable, and if they wanted to hide something that was ordinary, of course they would put it in the same thing.
"If you don't say anything, you won't see the sun tomorrow."
Ji Chencai didn't believe such a lame reason, the words were full of coercion, but there was still a little bit of deterrence, seeing that Mazi Face still didn't say anything, he felt a little unbearable on his face, so he kicked on Ma Zi Face's body, and almost let Ma Zi Face die on the spot on the sword on Ma Zi Face's shoulder.
Fortunately, Shangguan Fei was quick and took the sword back in time, otherwise they wouldn't have found out anything, and one person would have died under their sword.
Seeing that Mazi's face was just an extra cut in his neck, and blood was oozing slightly, a few people breathed a sigh of relief, Ji Chen touched his nose with an embarrassed face, and moved his body back a little.
In the end, the bone girl couldn't stand it anymore, shook her head again and again, and made a strange rustling sound in her mouth, and then a black beetle appeared at their feet, and Ji Chen was so frightened that the whole person squatted on the stool.
Zuo Xiangling directly put his foot on Shangguan Feibai's leg, except for Feng Lin, the owner of these insects, he was the most calm, and his body did not move at all.
"You can see it too, my treasures are very excited to see you, if you still don't speak, I can only make you their delicacy, you can rest assured, where they pass is guaranteed to be no bones, there will be no traces."
The strange smile in the eyes like the moon reflected in the lake was really terrifying, and the pockmarked face couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and finally stammered.
"You, you get rid of them first......"
Seeing that something was going on, Feng Lin stomped her feet, and those bugs disappeared without a trace.
"Actually, I just came over to take a look because I was just curious, it's really not the murderer you're looking for, if you don't believe it, you can go out and find out who I am Liu Mazi."
Liu Mazi had a strong man's expression of broken wrists, everyone was a little suspicious, Feng Lin was the first to react, and directly recruited a red insect to Liu Mazi's body, as soon as the insect stopped, you could see that the clothes on Liu Mazi's shoulder were melted out of a hole, and the hole also had a faint spreading posture.
Liu Mazi was so frightened that the whole person began to tremble, and he almost fainted.
"Looks like he's telling the truth."
Feng Lin withdrew the red worm with fangs and claws, and nodded at Zuo Xiangling.
"Looks like we've wasted all our efforts today."
With a regretful expression, very decadent, Ji Chen wanted to comfort her on her shoulder, but Zuo Xiangling was pulled away by Shangguan Feibai, making him pounce.
"Lock people up, you don't have to release them until it's over."
Shangguan Feibai said this, his eyes fell on Ji Chen's body, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious, that is, he wanted Ji Chen to lock people up.
Ji Chen had an expression of reluctance to go, and in the end, Zuo Xiangling forced him to send people downstairs to the kitchen on the grounds that he could leave here as soon as the matter was over.
It's a pity that the murderer wasn't caught, but he still has to rest, as soon as Ji Chen left, Zuo Xiangling pulled Shangguan Feibai to sleep, but as soon as the lights went out, Shangguan Feibai noticed that there was someone outside the room, and told him to sleep first, and then flashed and flew out of the room.
Looking at the window where there was no one in sight, Zuo Xiangling opened her mouth and didn't know what to say, and finally sighed long and went to bed, who told her that she couldn't fly, just watching others fly off the wall, she only had to stare dryly.
Shangguan Feibai caught up with the man after a few lightly, and just as he drew his sword and was about to stab the man, the man in black spoke.
"Yuan, it's me."
As if to prove his identity, the man in black took off the black cloth from his face.
The moment he heard the man's voice, Shangguan Feibai reacted and was about to put away his sword, so he didn't hurt the man in the slightest.
"Qin Puze, why are you here?"
Shangguan Feibai never looked away, as if he was a little puzzled.
"I came on the orders of Your Majesty, and Your Majesty heard that you were out of the village, so he asked me to come to look for you and wanted you to return to Chu."
Inserting the sword into the sheath, Shangguan Feibai turned around and was about to leave, when he heard Qin Puze say.
"There may be changes in the palace, within half a year, the state of Chu may be about to start a station with the barbarians in the north, the emperor wants you to go back, this is also the meaning of the queen's mother."
At the mention of the queen, Shangguan Feibai's movements were only slightly slower, but the next second he disappeared on the roof.
Looking at the back of Shangguan Feibai leaving, Qin Puze frowned slightly, even he may not be sure to persuade Shangguan Feibai to go back, after all, Shangguan Feibai left for that reason.
"You're back?"
Hearing the sound of the window closing, Zuo Xiangling immediately sat up, her stomach hurt so much that she couldn't sleep, so she simply waited for Shangguan Feibai.
"Hmm."
Shangguan Feibai replied softly.
Zuo Xiangling felt that his face was a little bad, and he was very puzzled.
"Did you lose someone? It doesn't matter if you lose it, it's a mix of fish and dragons here, and it may not be a murderer, it's okay. ”
Shangguan Feibai had already put down his sword and was taking off his shirt by the bed, and when he walked to the bed, Zuo Xiangling got up directly and knelt on the bed and hugged him.
Zuo Xiangling had a hunch that Shangguan Feibai was probably going to see someone just now, not that she had lost people as she said, otherwise Shangguan Feibai's character would not have become so gloomy at all, and she could feel it very clearly.
Shangguan Feibai held Zuo Xiangling's shoulder and pressed her back to the bed, sat on the bed and took off her boots, seeing that Shangguan Feibai was going to lie down, Zuo Xiangling could only vacate her position, as for the doubts in her heart, Shangguan Feibai didn't want to say it, she could only put it in her heart.
……
The ugly hour has passed, the cold moon has fallen on the westernmost horizon, the graceful stars are gradually obscured by the clouds, the sky is flickering brightly and darkly, the temperature has dropped a few degrees, outside the inn, a cold wind blows, the streets are empty, and a few dead leaves are rolled up from time to time, and the whole street is a little quiet and terrifying.
In the darkness of the street corner alley, a man in black with a mask walked in briskly, quickly removed the hood on his head, it was the pockmarked face just now, I saw him put his finger on the edge of his face, and with a stabbing sound, he tore off a human skin mask, revealing a cold face, only to see him salute into the depths of the darkness.
