The owner of the long sword looked at me with a slight upturn, as if he was smiling, but it made me feel as if the spring sun was blooming, and I was full of brilliance: "I have always been there." ”

"I thought you were gone." My nose was sore, and I felt a little aggrieved about his refusal.

"I'm already gone, but I suddenly remembered that there was another sentence I forgot to tell you, so I came back again." Liang Ci stared at Yue'er, the cold air all over her body was pressing, but her tone was indescribably soft, like a spring breeze.

"Just come back," I smiled stupidly, naturally not stupid enough to ask him at this time if there was anything he wanted to say to me.

"It turns out that you are the Sword Venerable Shura, the daughter of the Su family is really powerful, not only is there a Lin Mosheng who is desperate to protect her, but also hooks up with a legendary figure like you." Yue'er stared at the Red Refining Sword on her chest, without fear, and sneered coldly, "Why are you in my room?" ”

Liang Ci squinted his dark eyes, and his whole body exuded an arrogant aura that was familiar and unfamiliar to me: "Can't you guess this? ”

Yue'er was shocked, and said in disbelief: "How do you know the secret passage of my room?" ”

It turned out that the secret passage exit in her mother's room turned out to be in Yue'er's room. I was surprised and felt reasonable.

This courtyard is not far from the mother's main house, and the exit is set in the room, which is the most secret, no wonder it has not been discovered for so long.

It's just that how she can dig a secret passage in the courtyard where so many people live, unknowingly, is really puzzling.

"Because the matter of the sixth aunt was leaked today, and she provoked the murder so quickly, it makes me suspect that someone must have tampered with the eldest lady's house.

And the rain accumulated around this yard, which means that the begonia forest at the entrance is higher than the yard, and I carefully checked the soil quality there, which is obviously different from other places. The reason for this is that a lot of soil has been dug out of the ground. Then, the secret passage exit in the eldest lady's house is naturally in your house. ”

Yue'er smiled bitterly: "When I repaired this yard and planted splendid begonias, I took the opportunity to dig this secret passage. After so many years of secret, no one has paid attention to it, and you have discovered it. I'm convinced to lose in your hands. ”

With his head held high, he had a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, without any timidity, and he was not afraid of death.

The reckless man just now, seeing that Yue'er was restrained, gave up resistance, picked up the sharp knife on the ground again, and pounced frantically like a hungry wolf, his face was twisted and hideous, his eyes were red, and there were tears on his face that had not dried.

"Slut, pay for the debt with blood, suffer death!"

Brother Lin hurriedly stepped forward and stopped his figure: "Son, don't be reckless!" ”

I know that he must be the third son of the Su family from the sixth aunt, the younger brother of Qingchou, the tenth in the house, and the word Qingming. He has always lived outside the mansion, and he should have just received the news of the death of the sixth aunt and hurried back to the mansion.

The situation was urgent just now, and although I was perfunctory, the abnormality between me and my father must have aroused her suspicions.

"Tenth brother, Yue'er is not the real murderer of the sixth aunt, but someone else, we must leave a living mouth, so as to force the identity of the person behind the scenes." I urged urgently.

Qing Ming seemed to have lost her mind, her eyes were red, and her hair was scattered. It looks a little frightening: "Then I'll gouge out her eyes first, chop off her hands and feet, and go to pay tribute to my aunt's soul in the sky, leaving her a cheap life, and you will interrogate her slowly." ”

Yan Bi frantically waved the sharp knife in his hand, and rushed forward regardless of it, a little hysterical. Brother Lin was afraid of injuring him by mistake, so he didn't dare to put down too heavy hands and feet, and he was helpless for a while.

Yue'er smiled coldly: "If you want to extract the secret from my mouth, you are a fool and a dream, Su Qingwen." ”

I suddenly had a bad premonition in my heart, and I wanted to open my mouth to remind her of the nearest cool words, I was afraid that there was poison hidden in her body, and it was too late, Yue'er's mouth gushed out a mouthful of black blood, and she lay on the ground softly.

Liang Ci indifferently put away the long sword on his body, squatted down, stretched out his two fingers to Yue'er's nose and probed it, then took out a crescent moon white cloud brocade handkerchief from his cuff, carefully wiped his fingertips twice, discarded it aside, stood up, and said coldly: "There is no breath." ”

Qing Ming stood in place and was stunned for a moment, before she reacted, and said unwillingly: "You died like this?" It's too cheap for her, how can I solve the hatred in my heart? Whatever she says, she will be cut by a thousand cuts. ”

The indescribable fierceness in his eyes.

I understand that the sudden death of the sixth aunt must have been a big blow to him. However, the expression in the young man's eyes was too cruel, not the kind of hateful gaze in the face of the enemy's knife, but permeated with a thirst for blood, the whole eyes seemed to be shouting, full of wildness and cruelty, only warm blood can calm that restlessness.

I felt a little scared.

The sixth aunt had already staggered into the house, untied Qingqing, and helped her out of the house.

I hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed her hand, which was still shaking, and asked her about her injuries with concern.

Qingqing smiled comfortingly at me, it seemed that there was nothing wrong except that I was frightened and my face was not very good, and I was relieved.

Qingqing walked up to Liang Ci and squatted down to bow down to him, thanking him for saving his life, even his voice trembled, he was indeed frightened.

"Qingqing, do you need to ask the girl to boil you some medicinal soup to suppress the shock?" I asked worriedly.

Qingqing's pale face, even in such an embarrassed situation, he still tried to maintain his graceful posture, and said like a yellow warbler: "I'm okay, I didn't suffer anything, but I was a little timid." ”

Then he glanced back at Yue'er on the ground, and bowed down to Qingming on the side with teary eyes.

"Qingming, my sister has a reluctant request, and I hope you can agree."

Qing Ming tried hard to restrain the hideous expression on her face, and waved her hand at Qing Qing and said, "Sixth sister, it's okay to talk about it. ”

Qingqing wiped the tears on her face with her cuffs, and said softly: "Yue'er's crime deserves death, and the sixth sister, as her master, has been unaware of it for many years, and it is equally difficult to escape the blame for raising tigers."

It's just that Yue'er, since she has died in Huangquan, please raise your noble hand. Let's leave her a whole corpse, we are also master and servant. ”

I was a little surprised by Qingqing's tolerance, after all, Yue'er had also harmed her twice without mercy.

But a hundred people have died, and since Yue'er is dead, I don't agree with what Qing Ming said about a thousand cuts.

The sixth aunt also echoed softly: "The deceased is the greatest, and besides, Yue'er is just an accomplice, Young Master Qingming, you have a lot of adults, so don't worry about it, right?" ”

Qing Ming was silent for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter, it's just that it's too cheap to let her be buried like this, so she will be thrown into a mass grave and be eaten and bitten by that wild dog!" ”

Qingqing's face was a little unbearable, but Qingming had already relieved herself, and she was embarrassed to take another inch, so she bowed to Qingming Yingying and thanked her.

Since Qingqing is already fine, it is inconvenient for me to stay any longer, and the housekeeper has already rushed over after hearing the news and began to deal with the aftermath. I sent someone to my father to report his safety, and then said goodbye to Brother Lin and retired.

The eastern sky was already dawning, and the blue and white colors were trying to tear apart the heavy night, faintly revealing a bright light.

Outside the green yard, the begonias are still enchanting, I walked slowly under the begonia tree with Brother Lin and Liang Ci, and I saw that Liang Ci was in the dust, and it should really be a night road, and then rushed back.

Remembering what he had just said, that he had something important to say to me, he broke the silence in a loud voice: "Since we have already traveled so far, why did we rush back on purpose, is there anything we can't talk about back?" ”

Liang Ci raised his eyes and glanced at Brother Lin beside me, Brother Lin immediately understood, snorted softly, took two steps, and walked in front of us, not far from us, about four or five zhang away.

Liang Ci looked at me, but he wanted to speak again, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "I just want to remind you that when you sleep at night, remember to close the windows to prevent thieves." ”

"Huh?!" I looked at Liang Ci with a wry smile: "Could it be that you rushed back from all over the dust just to tell me this sentence?" ”

I secretly slandered in my heart, besides you, who else would like to climb someone's window!

Liang Ci looked at me with a wicked smile: "Then what do you want me to say to you?" ”

I closed my open mouth in embarrassment and said, "I thought it was something urgent." ”

The corners of Liang Ci's mouth curled slightly, and his eyes flashed with an inexplicable brilliance: "I just suddenly remembered that we secretly went out that day, and you were designed when you came home." I wondered in my heart, there are obviously secret guards around your yard, and others can't get close, so why will your whereabouts be leaked.

Halfway through, it dawned on me that there might be a secret passage in your yard that leads to something else. Worry that thieves and dogs will jump off the wall in a hurry, and then it will be bad for you through the secret passage. ”

There was a warm current in my heart that was slowly surging, and the warmth reached the limbs and bones, and I smiled toothily: "Now that the dust has settled, you should rest assured." In the future, I will behave in a proper manner, just don't cause trouble. ”

"The dust has settled?"

Liang Ci's hand stretched out to my face, which made my heart tighten, but he pulled down a begonia petal from his hair:

"You're underestimating those thieves. How could a plan they had been planning for more than ten years fall apart so easily?

Especially that Yue'er is so cunning, when she knew that you were already suspicious of her, she could have blamed everything on Aunt Six, why would she expose herself so stupidly and carelessly, have you ever thought about it?

I guess that she is just an outcast, taking the initiative to take all the blame, so that the person who has really been hidden in Su Mansion for more than ten years can rest easy. ”

I didn't expect the words of the cool words, and I was still immersed in the peace of the dust just now, and my heart suddenly rose to my throat again.

I really imagined it too simply, thinking that as Yue'er herself said, the sixth aunt was blinded in the dark, or coerced, and had been secretly cooperating with Yue'er.

And now, in order to avenge her sister, the sixth aunt did not listen to Yue'er's control, and revealed her identity and the whereabouts of the Candle Dragon Order. In order to recover the candle dragon token, Yue'er contacted people outside the mansion and killed the sixth aunt after stealing.

Now that I think about it, the exposure of Yue'er's identity is really strange, and it is indeed deliberate. It's just that Yue'er has committed suicide by taking poison now, and all the clues have been broken, but what should I do?

Liang Ci saw that I had a bitter face, and seemed to guess my thoughts:

"That person in your house is not a problem, our real enemy is the organization behind the scenes. As long as you cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and wipe out those Gu poisoners and manipulators, the person in the house will naturally be a clown.

I think she won't be doing anything in the near future in order to hide her identity. As long as you settle down and don't do this again. ”

Liang Ci shrouded me with a burning gaze, as if to say meaningfully: "Otherwise, if I really leave, who will protect you?" ”
