Chapter 380: The Killer
I didn't find out a few days ago that this boss has studied the lace news in Shenjing City so thoroughly. With Wu Weiyan and the others, there will definitely be no new guests coming to stay in the hotel in a short time, and now that the time for breakfast has passed, the boss is bored, and the fifth Tingyun from the old lady of the Wu family is strong, talking about the young master of the Ye family and the Ning family, and even the royal Li family, he can also quietly shake out some interesting things.
The competition for fame and fortune among the powerful is nothing more than a big drama in the eyes of these ordinary people. Whoever wins and loses has little effect on their lives, so over time, the residents of Shenjing have become accustomed to the turmoil in Shenjing City, and use it as a topic of conversation in the streets for their own amusement.
The time for small talk passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was noon.
Diners are coming in one after another.
But the shopkeeper didn't come downstairs to greet him, and the boss couldn't help but open his throat and shouted twice, but no one responded. The boss didn't care much, after all, he had to greet the guests first, so he went over to replace the shopkeeper and greeted him well. And the fifth Tingyun faintly felt that something was wrong, the shopkeeper didn't seem to have come down from the upstairs yet, right? Not only Xiaoer, but even Bai Jie, a person who never forgot his identity as a maid and couldn't wait to follow his son-in-law every step of the way, half a day had passed, and he didn't hear any movement, let alone come downstairs.
As soon as he thought of this, the fifth Tingyun hurriedly ran upstairs, and as soon as he turned to the second floor, he saw the shopkeeper fainting at the staircase, and there was a purple-black black blue on his neck. Fifth, after hearing Yun shouting downstairs, "Boss, your second child was knocked unconscious", he hurried up to the third floor.
The door to the room was wide open.
Fifth, Tingyun rushed into the room, and sure enough, there was no one, only the beautiful Guanghan sword lying quietly on the ground.
"Master. He shouted twice and ran into Shifu's bedroom, and even Shifu was gone. He returned to the hall of the room, squatted down and took a closer look at the Guanghan sword, there was a string of mud footprints next to the sword, the mud had dried up, and it seemed that the person who came had already gone away.
After a little calculation, it should be in the morning when the fifth Tingyun went downstairs to negotiate with the group of people of the Wu family, someone else touched the third floor and kidnapped Bai Jie. Although Tingyun didn't know the specific strength of his master, it was impossible to kidnap people under his old man's nose without making the slightest noise!
Even Ye Jiuling, the ancestor of the Ye family, couldn't please Shi Fu, just ask how many people in Shenjing City could take Bai Jie away so quietly.
What's more, the teacher is gone.
With Shifu's cultivation, Fifth Tingyun is not worried about his safety, but whether Shifu is following the captive is a question, and he is worried about Bai Jie's safety. No, you have to chase it and take a look, the fifth Tingyun followed the footprints all the way to the window, and there were still clear mud marks on the eaves tiles outside the window.
He didn't have time to think about it, he jumped out of the window after the footprints, and soon jumped off the third floor.
After going downstairs, he vaguely heard that the inn was already in chaos, and the shopkeeper seemed to be shouting something like "report to the official". He had no time to care, and soon found the mud mark in a narrow alley nearby, and it was a sunny day, but I don't know where the captives came from, and there was so much mud left on their shoes.
The alley is not only narrow, but also extremely long.
Fifth Tingyun kept staring at the footprints on the ground, not knowing how far he had walked into the alley, he occasionally looked up and looked back and forth, and there was a feeling that there was no end. Gradually, smoke began to rise in the alley, like smoke from the people outside the alley when they were cooking on a fire.
After walking a little further in the smoke, the smoke came out, and the air suddenly became cold, and it began to rain. The rain became heavier and heavier, and at last it was like a pour, and the fifth cloud accelerated in the rain, fearing that the rain would wash away the mud footprints on the ground.
The rain soaked through his clothes.
The curtain-like rain even blocked his vision.
He stopped, as the footprints in front of him were washed clean.
But this alley is so narrow and so long, in fact, there is only one road ahead. But he still stopped, the muscles of his left hand tensed, and the perception of the human sword spirit spread out, opening like a net to cover the range of his body, and he felt a murderous aura.
Bang bang bang.
A shadow in the alley in front of him walked slowly, and because of the rain, the fifth hearing cloud could only see that it was a man with an umbrella. As for the physiognomy of people, he couldn't see half of it. The man holding the umbrella stopped after reaching the distance of the fifth listening cloud, and did not intend to take another step.
"Where did you take him?"
Narrow alleys, mud prints, smoke, heavy rain...... Fifth, Tingyun instantly strung these factors together, and immediately understood that the other party was deliberately luring himself out. Before, because I cared about it, I didn't dig deeper, how could there be a kidnapper who deliberately left mud footprints on this sunny day......
The man with the umbrella didn't answer, I don't know if he didn't hear clearly.
Fifth, Tingyun took a few steps forward, wanting to get closer. But when he took a few steps forward, the man with the umbrella took a few steps back, and the distance between the two remained three feet.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the ground in the alley was already a finger's depth of water.
The water flowed from the high to the low, making a gurgling sound like a stream.
Hmmm-
A strange sound suddenly rang out in his perception.
He immediately sensed a sharp stab behind him, and it was very precise, pointing directly at his left heart. He felt the murderous aura behind him, and the other party seemed to want to penetrate his heart directly from behind.
He tried to dodge, but in an instant his face changed dramatically.
The rain that poured on him, the rain that soaked his clothes, suddenly spread a net on him. There was no part of his body that was not wet, and this net existed everywhere in his body, and he couldn't move his hands or feet, and all of a sudden, it was as if he was frozen.
Not only that, but the trickle that had just formed beneath him was now climbing up his body along his legs. He glanced down, and saw that the water was like vines, tangled into bundles, twisting and spreading over his body.
He was motionless, just like the bull run that had been given the "immovable golden bell seal" this morning.
But it's different.
At that time, no one stabbed him in the back.
But the fifth listens to the clouds.
The murderous aura and sharp intent behind it, if the other party is allowed to stab him like this, the fifth Tingyun knows that he can only die by piercing his heart. What a pair of killers, killers with the ubiquitous rain and razor-sharp swords as murder weapons.
Even rain can kill people, this is the world of cultivators.
"Leave!"
The situation is critical, and there is no room for the fifth hearing Yun Zuo to think about it, and he has a heart to mind with the sword on his back, and there is only one thought. The detached sword in the sheath on his back suddenly bloomed with white light, and with a bang, the white rainbow came out of the sheath, and the sword pierced through the sky.
