Chapter 679: Moon White and Rest
The night is thick like ink.
Under the guidance of Qiu Yuebai, Meng Shuilan and the others ran all the way to the courtyard outside Hong Yuan, and before they could get close, they saw a fire burning.
The crowd jumped out of the carriage and galloped to the front of the courtyard.
Meng Tianqing opened his mouth to call Tang Jiaren, but Meng Shuilan covered his mouth and scolded in a low voice: "Don't be stupid." "If the people of the Battle Demon Palace know the true identity of the Flower Hall Master, she will be even more unsafe. If not, maybe it's just a false alarm.
A woman's wail came from the fire, intermittent, accompanied by a sound of drowsiness, which was not really audible.
After Tang Buxiu heard it, his footsteps did not stop, and he rushed directly in the direction where the sound was.
Qiu Yuebai grabbed Tang Buxiu and said, "I'll go." With that, he used his internal force to coat his skin with a layer of ice gas, and quickly rushed into the fire.
Tang Buxiu didn't wait, but jumped directly onto the wall, and when Qiu Yuebai was about to rush into the side room, he pushed out a palm, letting the internal force of the mountains and seas shatter the wooden door in front of Qiu Yuebai.
As the wooden door shattered into slag, a woman rushed out of the room, screaming and pounced on Qiu Yuebai. Half of the woman's face had been burned beyond recognition, and her body was burning with fire.
Qiu Yuebai immediately dodged away, glanced quickly into the room, and didn't see anyone else, so he pulled out the soft sword on his waist and directly cut the woman's throat to relieve her.
The woman closed her eyes and burned in the fire.
The trees beside Qiu Yuebai collapsed with a bang, burning and smashing into him.
Tang Buxiu slapped it out, changing the direction of the tree's inclination.
Qiu Yuebai jumped directly onto the wall and jumped outside the courtyard.
Tang turned his head and returned to the gate.
Meng Shuilan didn't see the woman's face too clearly from a distance, so she asked, "Who is that woman?" ”
Qiu Yuebai replied: "Looking at the clothes and hands, it should be the woman who is responsible for the rough work here." ”
Meng Tianqing asked: "The building is already empty, why is that woman in the fire?" ”
Qiu Yuebai and Tang Buxiu glanced at each other, and the former replied, "Maybe someone did it deliberately." ”
Tang pondered: "Before we set off, someone had already arrived here, secretly photographed the woman unconscious, hid under the bed, locked the door, and then set fire to the house and forced the others away. When we arrived, the woman was awakened by the fire and screamed intermittently. If only one person goes in to save someone, they are likely to die in the fire and never come out again. ”
Meng Tianqing said angrily: "It's so hateful! All this must have been done by the stealthy assassin! Instead, he asked, "How are you so sure?" Why don't you say that this fire was set by the people of the War Demon Palace themselves? ”
Tang Buxiu replied: "I'm just treating others with myself." If I were the one who was intent on obtaining the Fruit of Morais, I would have done so. As for why this fire was not planted by the people of the War Demon Palace, you can see that they left in a hurry when you look at the items in the house that have not yet been taken away. ”
Meng Shuilan frowned and said, "This stealth assassin is really annoying! Turning his face sideways, he said to the six black-clothed people, "Search the location of the battle sky, don't startle the snake." ”
The six of them clenched their fists and disappeared into the darkness.
Meng Tianqing lowered his voice and said in a thief's head: "You say, will he eavesdrop on our conversation around here?" And then before we plan to do it next? ”
Meng Shuilan said: "He is not three-headed and six-armed. If you follow us, you naturally can't follow the people of the War Demon Palace. Unless...... He has an inner response. ”
Tang Buxiu turned around and walked to the carriage and said, "Go back to sleep." ”
Meng Tianqing asked, "Just ...... Just go back? ”
Qiu Yuebai also boarded the carriage and sat in the carriage.
Meng Shuilan patted Meng Tianqing's shoulder and said, "Don't want to go back?" Then you stay here and communicate with the invisible assassin. Perhaps, he will be so kind that he will only stab you. ”
Meng Tianqing shook his shoulders, shrugged Meng Shuilan's hand, jumped directly into the carriage, raised the horsewhip and shook it around to see if there was anyone around.
Meng Shuilan jumped into the carriage, sat down, leaned close to Meng Tianqing, and whispered, "If you follow the two of them, you won't hang up easily." ”
Meng Tianqing et al. below.
Meng Shuilan said: "If that stealth assassin hurts you, he will reveal his position." The two people in the car are not vegetarians, you know? ”
Meng Tianqing pursed his lips and said, "I barely understand." He twitched his horse's buttocks, motioned him forward, and pondered, "Can this person really be invisible?" What about the shadows? Why is it gone? What is the rationale for this? ”
Meng Shuilan said: "It's not that the shadow is gone. It was he who deliberately hid in the dark, hiding himself. ”
Meng Tianqing said: "In other words, he didn't dare to come out during the day." Ay...... In the future, when you walk, you have to stare at the shadows on the ground. ”
Meng Shuilan thought about it, and still said, "It's not safe here, you better go back." ”
Meng Tianqing turned his head and said, "Don't go back." ”
Meng Shuilan persuaded: "There are those two inside, and the beauty can't stuff you in her heart." ”
Meng Tianqing said unabashedly: "Didn't you listen to them, the stealth assassin wanted to kill them so that the beauty could be sad." So, I can't go. I had to stay and comfort the beautiful woman. ”
The corners of Meng Shuilan's mouth twitched, and she tapped her forehead with a fan, feeling a headache. He didn't even know what to say. Meng Tianqing, a lover, is still waiting to be a substitute, what about the leaks?
Seeing Meng Shuilan's entangled and painful look, Meng Tianqing smiled secretly, but then sighed heavily, and said, "I don't know where the beauty was taken." ”
In the carriage, Qiu Yuebai said: "The stealth assassin doesn't want us to meet with the beautiful woman. ”
Tang Buxiu said quietly: "Stealth assassin, good and easy to face, strong martial arts, can be invisible." Such a person is still delusional about getting the Lotus Holy Fruit after fusion. Man's greed, heh......"
Qiu Yuebai said: "This person should die." ”
Tang Buxiu bowed slightly, looked at Qiu Yuebai, and met his eyes, seeing a bit of determination and ruthlessness in each other's eyes, as well as unshakable persistence.
Tang Buxiu hooked the corners of his lips and said, "The human heart is really wonderful. A moment ago, I couldn't tolerate you holding on to the mushroom's heart. Now, I feel that this is fine, if one person can't escape this catastrophe and must die and reincarnate, at least one person can comfort the mushroom, so that she will not fuse with the Demon Lotus Holy Fruit again in the pain of life, and finally become the life-saving flesh and blood in the mouths of others. The mushrooms that the deity has worked so hard to raise are not for others to eat! ”
Qiu Yuebai felt that Tang Buxiu's latter sentence was a little weird. Eating mushrooms, he ...... It's already been done.
Qiu Yuebai thought of the beautiful woman, with a smile on her face.
As soon as Tang Buxiu saw Qiu Yuebai's smile, he regretted forming an alliance with him. He told himself that it was only a short-lived expediency.
Qiu Yuebai glanced at Tang Buxiu, knowing that he was unwilling, but he made up his mind that as long as he took a step out of the way, he would occupy the heart of the beautiful woman and would never leave lightly.
The two of them had their own plans, and they were silent.
