Chapter 47: Surprise (3)
She stared at Duan Changge like a prey, raised her head and sneered sadly, and a pair of phoenix eyes shot a little cold.
Suddenly, she turned her eyes to look at Bai Hanyan in the river and said: "And your life, you lost this gamble, since you gambled with us, you have to be willing to gamble and lose, and I will take it all back if you owe me." ”
"You're gambling with someone?"
Duan Changge's eyes turned to look at the white cold smoke in the water in front of him, and a beautiful smile bloomed on the corner of his lips.
Bai Hanyan turned his head to look at him, and his red lips pursed his lips with a smile line: "Yes, I lost this gamble." ”
Duan Changge pursed the corners of his lips, a shallow smile appeared on his lips, and his bottomless eyes were lightly soft, and said, "Okay, I'll lose with you." ”
Bai Hanyan was slightly stunned.
Duan Changge had already raised his eyes to look at Ling Ji at this time, but his eyes seemed to be painful for a moment, and he sighed: "Ling Ji, five years ago, I was sorry for you in the end, and now if you want to get it back, I have nothing to say." ”
Lingji looked at him angrily, but the tears couldn't stop flowing, she shook her head angrily, and shouted:
"Don't talk nonsense, you're all going to die tonight!"
As soon as the words fell, nearly ten giant pythons suddenly burst out of the woods and torrents, twisting their bodies, carrying a disgusting fishy smell, and constantly emitting them.
"Duan Changge, don't you know how to cure snakes, these giant pythons are my gift to you."
Ling Ji took in his shocked expression, hooked the corners of her lips slightly, chuckled, slowly took out the fire fold from her arms, blew it on her lips, a touch of red glamoured her eyes and blood red, she raised her eyes and said to them: "But your medicine powder doesn't seem to be good, you slowly enjoy becoming the mouth of this giant python, and finally ...... Thank you for helping me get the map back. ”
The pythons had passed through the woods, and not far from them, stopped their advance, coiled their bodies into a heap, raised their heads up, and barked at them twice.
Bai Hanyan protected the ripples that were already trembling behind him, and looked coldly at the giant python that was crawling, and he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
Lingji held the fire fold, smiled lightly, and raised her hand to throw the fire fold onto the sack at her feet.
"Xianggong!" Lian'er shouted loudly behind Bai Hanyan and rushed towards the opposite bank.
But it was the giant python that was even faster, the water under her feet was agitated, and the giant snake bounced, and in the blink of an eye, the snake's tail wrapped around her.
The snake's mouth was open, the fishy breath swelled, Lian'er was crushed into the water, swimming hard, the water submerged her, but her eyes were still staring at the fireball on the opposite shore, and the terrible and desperate screams made her heart like a knife, and she closed her eyes and let the giant python open its mouth and bite her.
Bai Hanyan was frightened and immediately flew up, and the big snake hidden in the other river was already ready to attack and coil towards her!
Duan Changge shouted, pulled out the Ling Bo Long Sword on his waist, and slashed down with a sword in mid-air, the snake's head was immediately shaken open, and its head was cut off by the Ling Bo Sword.
Bai Hanyan didn't care much, and flew towards the giant python with his mouth wide open to Lian'er, hugged the snake's head, pulled out the hairpin on his head, and pierced the snake's eyes, and suddenly, a stream of scarlet blood spurted out.
The giant python screamed in pain, and as soon as its body flung away, Bai Hanyan and Lian'er flew out like rag bags.
The back slammed into the water, Bai Hanyan didn't care about the pain, and hurriedly swam like a snake in the water, holding the ripples that smashed into the water in his arms.
Another giant python rushed behind him when he heard the sound, Bai Hanyan looked at the ripples in his arms like dead ashes, and looked at the scorched people on the other side blankly, but he was lifeless.
Feeling that the fishy smell of the giant python was in the back of her head, Bai Hanyan immediately dragged her body and threw her to the shore, but she was caught in the belly of the snake by the long snake body.
The snake's belly tightened more and more on her, Bai Hanyan gritted her teeth, and felt her bones click with it.
Suddenly, he heard a clear sword roar rising from the ground, and the corner of Bai Hanyan's eyes saw a cold light flying in the distance, the wind was vertical and horizontal, and the sword body was straight into the giant python seven inches, the giant python raised its head in pain and roared, the snake's belly suddenly lost its strength, and Bai Hanyan slipped out of it.
The giant python shook twice in the water, and then it was silent, Bai Hanyan looked up and saw Duan Changge on the shore holding a short knife, fighting with three giant pythons, and there were already three giant pythons under his feet who were already dying.
Duan Changge's patience reached the limit, and a strong killing intent burst out from his body, but seeing that the giant python was not willing to give up, he raised his head in unison and roared, and his body shot towards Duan Changge like a long arrow from a bow!
"Duan Changge!"
Bai Hanyan shouted his name worriedly, leaned over and pulled out the Ling Bo long sword from the snake, blood flowed on the blade, she jumped up from the ground, her body was like a whirlwind, and she threw Ling Bo to Duan Changge with a raised palm.
"Next!"
Duan Changge skimmed sideways from the giant python's head, his long arm was raised, the three-foot Qingfeng long sword was already in his hand, his wrists were vibrated one after another, and the Ling Bo sword flower flowed, forcing the long snake to take three steps back.
"Livestock, let it die!"
Duan Changge scolded angrily, and a glimmer of green light suddenly appeared in the gray night, followed by a loud buzz, and the cold light of Ling Bo's sword body continued to flow, breaking loudly on the three high-spirited giant pythons, Bai Hanyan saw that the long sword cold light followed his long arm down, and it was already broken like a bamboo and nothing could stop it.
In an instant, the three long snakes were broken by the waist, the blood was broken, the smell was fishy, and the python fell into a pool of blood and kept twisting its body.
Duan Changge took a sip and looked at the place where Ling Ji had disappeared, his eyebrows condensed, and his eyes were as dark as night.
And the look in the sack has burned to a charred corpse, and the sparks are still crackling.
"Lian'er!"
Bai Hanyan hugged Lian'er who fell on the shore, and saw that her eyes were out of focus, just looking at the corpse looking at her.
"Lian'er, you still have his child in your womb......"
Bai Hanyan's eyes condensed with mist, and she leaned over and continued to comfort her in her ear: "Even if it's for the sake of the child, you have to live strongly." ”
A glimmer of light rose in Lian'er's dead eyes, and gradually tears condensed in her eyes, pouring out like a flood......
"Xianggong!"
After settling down, Duan Changge and Bai Hanyan immediately returned to the Wang family's ancestral hometown.
And at this moment, the yard was in a mess, the house slaves were all knocked to the ground, and Ma Zhenbing, who was seriously injured, knelt at the door of the main house, crying loudly: "Master, I'm sorry, I couldn't keep this secret, master, it's the villain who is incompetent, and I have failed to live up to your trust, and the secret you guarded with your life was snatched away by the man in dark mourning clothes......"
"Enforcer of the underworld."
Bai Hanyan's face was soaked in sorrow and apology, he pursed his lips and walked to his side, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, he can't run far, as long as I, Han Yan, am here, sooner or later I will bring him to justice!" ”
Ma Zhenbing looked back at her, with a light of hope in his eyes.
At dawn, there was a light rain in Wuxiang County, although the rain was not heavy, but it was falling slowly, and it was slightly chilly.
Bai Hanyan stood under the window, watching the rain pouring out, and sighed faintly.
"Why, did you just throw in the towel?"
Duan Changge stood behind her for some time, looking at her back, his tone was flat.
Bai Hanyan didn't look back, but said slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry, it's me who made you lose the map that Wang Jin exchanged for his life." ”
Duan Changge's eyebrows were rare quiet, and his eyes also fell on the rain outside the window, but he said: "Don't be sentimental, no one in this world can control me." ”
Bai Hanyan lowered his eyebrows, thought about it carefully, and suddenly turned to Duan Changge and said, "Do you feel strange?" ”
Duan Changge's expression was slightly gloomy, and he retracted his gaze to look at her and said, "You mean that Lingji hates me to the core, and finally lured me into the bait, but only found a few snakes, this revenge is too easy." ”
Bai Hanyan pursed his lips and said, "I didn't mean that. ”
Duan Changge waved his hand indifferently, but he frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "I also feel it, Ling Ji led me out, it seems that the real purpose is not to kill me." ”
Bai Hanyan immediately stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "I feel that she seems to have just come to kill Zhang Wang." ”
"Look at the ......," Duan Changge murmured in a deep voice.
——
When Li Chengdu came, the rain had not stopped, he put away the green umbrella, knelt in front of Duan Changge, and said respectfully: "Xiaguan has found out that there is indeed a waterway from Wuxiang County to Guiyang, and it will be down the river, and it will be possible to reach Guiyang Mansion in less than an hour, and the time of death can be postponed as long as the body temperature of the corpse is maintained." ”
Duan Changge didn't have any expression on his face, just hummed lightly.
Li Chengdu raised his eyes to look at Bai Hanyan who was standing aside, and saw that her face was pale and her expression was solemn, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.
"What else did you find?" Duan Changge asked out loud.
Li Chengdu immediately responded: "According to Lord Han's instructions, the lower officials interrogated carefully in Guiyang Prefecture and County, and sure enough, they found clues. ”
Bai Hanyan immediately lifted his spirits, and his eyes lit up slightly: "Master Li, what did you find?" ”
Li Chengdu looked at her appearance, relaxed slightly, and said: "The lower officials found out that on the day Lord Wang returned to the house, it was Chen Er who was on duty, and he said that when Lord Wang returned, it was Yinshi, and the sky was still gray, and he saw a scarlet robe coming down from the carriage, and he immediately knelt down, and did not see Lord Wang's appearance clearly, followed by a man and a woman. Lord Wang said that he was his younger brother and an insider. And the lady was also carried back to the county government by Lord Wang, saying that she was tired from the journey and fell ill. He instructed them to carry some of the boxes that were with them back to the room. ”
"Sure enough, it was like this, the body was hidden in a box and transported back to the county office, but what about the king, didn't he say that he received the flying pigeon transmission from Lord Wang, waited in the county government all night, and personally received Lord Wang's return, could it be that he would be mistaken." Bai Hanyan's eyes were as bright as a torch, and his voice was powerful.
"That's the most suspicious part!" Li Chengdu said in a deep voice: "According to the night watchman, he didn't see when Wang Tu entered the county office, but when the official took off his robe and resigned, Wang Tu was already in the county office. Therefore, the lower officials suspected that Wang Tu was in the same group as the murderer, so he had sent someone to detain him, and he is now in a prison cell in Wuxiang County. ”
After a pause, he suddenly frowned puzzled, and said: "It's just that the lower officials can't figure it out anyway, the guard said that he didn't see anyone leave, so how did the three people who pretended to be Lord Wang get out?" ”
"They didn't go out at all."
Bai Hanyan whispered in a deep voice: "It's not difficult for a few people in the huge county to hide, they only left after we left." ”
