Without further ado, after Liu Ruotian learned of the incident, he immediately assured him that he would definitely find out the truth about this puzzling case, so as to give justice to the innocent people who died unexpectedly.

However, as the investigation gradually deepened, Liu Ruotian was surprised to find that this was not a simple case of missing persons.

Because for months, a number of young and beautiful women have disappeared for no reason. What is even more remarkable is that all of these missing people have a common characteristic, that is, they have all been cut off from their faces. Other than that, there are no other anomalies, and the killer seems to be only interested in their faces.

In order to further explore the truth of the matter, Liu Ruotian also deliberately found the post-mortem who performed the autopsy for these women, so as to learn more about the situation.

At first, he was afraid that the forces behind this matter would be unfavorable to him, so he was reluctant to reveal half of the valuable information to Liu Ruotian.

Later, when he saw that there were more and more victims, his conscience was uneasy, so he risked his life to tell Liu Ruotian the truth.

According to the servant, over the past few months, as many as four strange female corpses had been identified by his hands. Since then, such cases have never occurred again. In his opinion, it may be because the murderer noticed something unusual, so he stopped for the time being, so as to avoid the wind.

And the reason why he said that these female corpses were strange was because he couldn't find out the cause of their death for a while.

As Liu Ruotian had learned before, all of them had their faces cut off from their flesh and skin, so that their faces were completely ruined.

However, to the great puzzlement of the servants, these four people were not harmed in any way, and there were no obvious scars on their bodies. If it is said that he died of poisoning, it is impossible to find out what kind of poison it is. But even so, he still doesn't want to believe that these people are dying from the so-called ghosts.

"Liu Shaoxia, old and incompetent, I really can't find out why they died. What's more, I even tried to hide the truth several times, so that my soul could not be revealed. Now that I think about it, I am really ashamed, the old man has no face to live in the world! ”

As he spoke, he burst into tears, as if he already knew that he had made a big mistake and wanted to try to make up for it.

"Old man, don't be too sad. I believe that this matter will eventually come to light! And those who have lost their conscience will also be punished! Liu Ruotian stood up and said to him with a firm look in his eyes.

Then, Liu Ruotian turned around and asked, "Old man, have any strange things happened to you here in the past few days, or have anyone come here to look for you?" ”

As soon as he heard this, he immediately replied: "When you say this, there is really something that makes me feel a little suspicious. ”

"Oh? Tell me what is the matter? Liu Ruotian couldn't wait to know what happened that day.

Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, he was killed by an unknown person with a hidden weapon.

"At the beginning of the day, it was just dawning, and I hadn't had time to ...... yet."

Liu Ruotian saw that he suddenly interrupted his words, and even realized that something was wrong. When he took a closer look, he found that he had already been hit by a secret weapon and died of anger.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flashed in front of Liu Ruotian's eyes. Presumably, this person was already lying in ambush in the shadows, and when he said that he was at the most important point, he immediately killed him to get rid of the trouble.

Seeing this, Liu Ruotian chased him out. By the time Liu Ruotian arrived in the courtyard, the man had disappeared.

At this moment, Liu Ruotian suddenly felt as if he had stepped on something under his feet, so he immediately squatted down to check the situation. It turned out that Liu Ruotian stepped on a string of emerald green beads.

After seeing this thing, Liu Ruotian was taken aback. I thought: "Isn't this Li Xiangling's belongings?" How did it end up here? Could it be that she has something to do with it? ”

Seeing this situation, Liu Ruotian didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately went to the Forget Worry Tea House to find out.

By the time Liu Ruotian arrived at the Forget Worry Teahouse, the sky had already darkened, and the guests here gradually dispersed.

Liu Ruotian saw that Li Xiangling was the only one left in the teahouse, so he walked straight over.

At this time, Li Xiangling was preparing to close at the gate of the teahouse, but saw a familiar figure not far away gradually walking towards her.

Seeing this, Li Xiangling hesitated for a moment, then put down the door panel in her hand and walked towards the person.

When I got closer, it turned out to be Liu Ruotian. Seeing that an acquaintance had arrived, Li Xiangling relaxed her due vigilance.

"It turned out to be you, I didn't know how to say hello first, I was scared to death, I thought it was ......" Li Xiangling wanted to speak and stopped.

Seeing Li Xiangling covering her heart and her expression solemn, Liu Ruotian already knew the reason.

"He's here again, isn't he?" Liu Ruotian asked suddenly.

"Who, who's coming, what do you say?" Li Xiangling knew that the person he was talking about was Yu Jingxi, but she still pretended not to understand.

Liu Ruotian saw that Li Xiangling didn't want to admit it, so he didn't ask any more. It is only said that he passed by here and suddenly felt thirsty, so he came here to ask for a cup of tea.

When she was young, Li Xiangling and Liu Ruotian came to the teahouse together and talked.

In the meantime, Liu Ruotian took out the string of beads and gave it to Li Xiangling to identify.

When Li Xiangling saw this, even though she recognized that this bead string was the one she gave to Liu Aodong that day, she somehow got into Liu Ruotian's hand.

It turned out that the string of beads that Li Xiangling gave to Liu Aodong that day was an imitation, and the real thing has been kept by Li Xiangling.

Moreover, as far as Li Xiangling knows, Liu Aodong at this time has already lost his body with a poisonous body, how could he suddenly appear and then secretly poison a man who has no grievances and no enemies?

"Then do you know why this Liu Aodong came to steal the beads? Or what friends does he have in Chang'an City? Liu Ruotian asked.

After Li Xiangling heard this, she thought about it seriously, and then said to her: "I don't know this very well, but I found that the relationship between this person and Yu Jingxi is extraordinary, because these two have come to me more than once to drink tea and chat. I often sit for most of the day, and I don't know exactly what I'm talking about. ”

"And...... And ......" Li Xiangling seemed to have some scruples, so she spoke a little slurred.

"And what, you say it quickly!" Liu Ruotian asked eagerly.

"That Yu Jingxi told me that he knows what kind of disguise technique, he can easily become anyone's appearance. At first, I didn't believe what he said. It wasn't until that day that he tore off a complete human skin mask in front of me that I knew he still had the ability to do so. ”

"Human Skin Mask...... Transfiguration...... Transfiguration...... Could it be ......" After Liu Ruotian heard Li Xiangling's words, he muttered to himself alone.

Just when Liu Ruotian wanted to learn more about Yu Jingxi, he didn't expect him to come uninvited.

Seeing this, Liu Ruotian hid in the back room.

Then, Yu Jingxi sneakily came to the Forget Worry Teahouse.

I saw Yu Jingxi wearing night clothes, sweating profusely and looking nervous, and at a glance, I knew that he must have done something good.

Seeing Yu Jingxi suddenly here, Li Xiangling was very bored, and even wanted to turn around and go upstairs to rest.

Li Xiangling thought that Yu Jingxi would leave immediately with interest, but she didn't want him to rush to the staircase with an arrow step, and began to mess around again.

"Ling'er, Ling'er! I really like you! I'm willing to sacrifice everything for you, I'm willing to give up everything! ”

At this moment, Li Xiangling looked at Yu Jingxi's pitiful appearance and almost laughed out loud. Fortunately, Li Xiangling endured it in time, otherwise Yu Jingxi, who was infatuated, would have mistakenly thought that she was moved.

I saw Li Xiangling say to him with a serious face: "May I ask Yu Gongzi, how many good things have you done so far?" How many good people have you saved? If you really like me, then use your actual actions to prove to me that you are not a heinous evil person who does not distinguish between right and wrong! Instead of talking like you do, no woman will accept your love unless she is sick! ”

Yu Jingxi was very sad when he heard this. Just as he was about to speak again, he suddenly heard a noise in the room.

It turned out that Liu Ruotian accidentally knocked over the flower pot rack in the dark, which made Yu Jingxi hear the voice.

Seeing this, Yu Jingxi immediately chased after him when he expected that there was someone in the house.

Liu Ruotian saw that something was wrong, and immediately jumped out of the window to escape, but was still overtaken by Yu Jingxi, who was in hot pursuit.

Seeing that Yu Jingxi, who was already furious, blocked his way, Liu Ruotian felt helpless, but he didn't want to fight with him, so he began to mess with him.

"Brother Yu, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's always been good?" Liu Ruotian asked Yu Jingxi with a smile.

Yu Jingxi originally thought that Liu Ruotian would start a fierce battle with him, but he didn't want him to talk to him like an unprecedented.

"Always good? Am I getting better! It's you, it's because of you! Ling'er doesn't want to be with me! With that, Yu Jingxi rushed towards Liu Ruotian.

Seeing this situation, Liu Ruotian couldn't laugh or cry, and immediately replied: "Oh, you really dare to guess ......"

"If that's the case, I'll kill you!" At this moment, Yu Jingxi has lost his due reason.

In desperation, Liu Ruotian had no choice but to compete with him first. It is equivalent to Jing Xi's anger disappearing, and then make another plan.

After about a stick of incense, the fight between the two gradually stopped. At this moment, they were all panting, and the anger in their hearts dissipated.

Then they came to the front steps of a shop, where they sat down without saying a word.

"That's so good, why bother fighting, killing? If it weren't for the fact that we are our own masters, we might have become good friends. ”

Liu Ruotian wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and said to Yu Jingxi on the side.

Liu Ruotian was still waiting for Yu Jingxi to reply, but he didn't expect to have no reaction at all. Just when he was puzzled by this, he was surprised to find that Yu Jingxi was secretly crying.

Seeing this, Liu Ruotian did not laugh at him, but raised his head, looked at the moon in the sky, and fell into deep thought.

I only heard Liu Ruotian say to himself: "What do you have to cry about, although she always ignores you, but at least you can see your beloved every day." But what about me? Alas, what a ......"

Maybe Liu Ruotian was so involved that he didn't even notice that Yu Jingxi had quietly left here.

Seeing this, Liu Ruotian was just about to leave, but found that there was a piece of paper pressed with a stone next to him, which seemed to be Yu Jingxi's intention to stay here.

Liu Ruotian opened it and found that it was actually a map.

Why did Yu Jingxi leave Liu Ruotian a map? Was it a clue that his conscience had found on him, or was it a trap he had set for him again? Liu Ruotian doesn't know.

I saw Liu Ruotian holding the map in his hand, and then suddenly said into the distance: "I hope you don't disappoint me, let alone Li Xiangling!" ”

Then, Liu Ruotian walked in the direction of the martial arts hall.
