Chapter 18: Bloody Eyes
My eyes are getting blurry and blurry, it is difficult to see things clearly, as if there is a membrane covering them, the prince saw that I have been rubbing my eyes all the time recently, and asked me if I need to check it, I think it should be too tired and plan to wait until this case is understood.
Han Yu has been studying the Yin Deed Charm found at the scene of the three murders, and he told me to the prince that the charm is correct but it is a little different from what he knows, unlike the Taoist orthodox spell that seems to have been evolved, and there are few records of the Yin Deed in Taoist classics, presumably because it is too yin and evil.
"Yoshida Hanzo and the other two are Fuso people, it stands to reason that they shouldn't know Taoist art, but it's not necessarily, after the Taoist method was introduced to Dongying, it evolved into countless branches, maybe this group of Fuso people are also proficient in this art." Han Yu said to us while stroking the silver moon.
"The people of Fusang have been looking for that treasure, Nangong Yi said that this process can be traced back to more than 100 years ago, and it is the Mita chaebol who funded the search, so it can be seen that they have not known the specific location of the treasure for so long." I rubbed my eyes and walked back and forth a few steps, and said thoughtfully. "It all started when my parents bought the letter from the drunkard, and the Fusang people appeared not long after they got the letters, and then my parents and the Fusang people both appeared in Yongning Village, and then the murder began to happen, and the focus was on the copper piece in Xie Tong's hand."
"Wait a minute, Fusang people can give Zhong Yulin so much money for a news, it can be seen that they don't care about the amount of money at all, Liu Weiming should not kill because he sits on the ground and refuses to hand over the copper sheet, as for whether the copper piece in his hand has fallen into the hands of the Fusang people, it is unknown, but one thing is certain." Han Yu stood up and said to us. "Xie Tong's room has been cleaned up, and the murderer doesn't want us to know that he is looking for something, which means that Xie Tong didn't hand over the copper piece until he died."
"When Zhong Yulin was interrogated, he said that after he and Xie Tong drank, Xie Tong came back to the room drunk and came out with a copper sheet in his hand." The prince's eyes lit up and he said. "This shows that Xie Tong has been hiding the copper sheet at home."
"Another piece of copper is still in Xie Tong's house." I stood up abruptly and said excitedly. "Since that copper piece is related to a treasure, as long as we find the copper piece, maybe we can know what the Fuso people are looking for, and we can also find out this group of Fusang people."
Without further ado, the investigation in Fuping Village has ended, there are no valuable clues, we are worried about the long night, Mengduo immediately set off to Xie Tong's house, it was already late at night, Yinyue stopped at the door and suddenly did not move, her head turned to the side, motionless and staring at the darkness of the night, Han Yu said that Yinyue was very alert, it could detect anything wrong, it could detect anything wrong, the prince and I began to look around vigilantly, but our eyes were all submerged in the darkness, and we listened for a long time except for the wind blowing from the ridge of the field and the sound of insects under the moon.
Yinyue's gaze slowly withdrew from the darkness, and began to let out a continuous low roar from its mouth, its charming eyes gradually became ferocious, and the hairs like snow on its body stood up, Han Yu subconsciously pulled me back who was walking in front, and suddenly a black shadow fell from the sky, and a cold light fell straight from the top of my head.
Silver Moon instantly swooped out like an arrow from the string and knocked the black shadow away, the low roar in its mouth became bigger and bigger, Han Yu and the prince stood in front of me, we looked at the black shadow that fell to the ground, although it was preemptively attacked by Silver Moon, it was very agile to dodge Silver Moon's sharp teeth, and it flashed to the side, and the cold light reflected it was as dazzling as a shock.
Only then did we see clearly that it was a person in a night suit, covering his face and only revealing a pair of eyes outside, but it turned out to be a pair of blood-red eyes, his black clothes could make him easily blend into the night without being easily noticed, if it weren't for the silver moon alertness, I would have been in danger at the forefront.
The man was half-kneeling on the ground, holding a long knife with a dark light pattern in both hands, this person was using a Dongying knife, presumably a Fusang person, and he appeared here so late, the purpose should be to find Xie Tong Another piece of copper hidden in the house like us.
The man saw that the blow missed, and swung the knife again, the cold light of the blade was like a poisonous snake attacking us, the prince stood on my right and flashed his body backwards without panic, the blade was cut off from in front of him, the prince's face did not change, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he accurately buckled the man's wrist, and with a little force, the knife in the man's hand fell to the ground, and the prince immediately leaned forward with his shoulders and hit the man's chest with full force, and the man stumbled to the ground.
It seems that this person is not the prince's opponent at all, and the prince easily subdued him before he even exerted his strength, but the time for that person to stand up was much faster than I expected, the prince used the Longzun fist, commonly known as the broken bridge fist, which is known for its strength and strength, and it is estimated that it is difficult for anyone to get up again when the prince's move just now.
But the man was as if he was fine, his blood-red eyes showed the murderous aura, and he didn't show any timidity.
Crunch.
The voice came out of Xie Tong's door, and two people in black flashed out of it, their knives were in the scabbard on their backs, holding a palm-sized wooden box in their hands, they also had weird blood-red eyes, my eyes fell on the wooden box, presumably it contained the copper pieces that Xie Tong was unwilling to take out until he died.
"They can't be allowed to take the copper sheets." I said to Han Yu and the crown prince.
The two looked at the man in black standing next to us, and exchanged glances with each other I can see that they have no intention of fighting, Han Yu picked up the knife that fell on the ground, although he has always used the peachwood sword to deal with evil spirits and evil ghosts, but in terms of kung fu, he is on par with the prince, but Han Yu is not good at the Dongying knife, and his hands are a little awkward.
Han Yu had already blocked their evacuation line, and the black-clothed people at the door glanced at each other, and they all pulled out their knives and attacked Han Yu at the same time, seeing that Han Yu was not used to using Dongying knives, but he was still comfortable dealing with these two black-clothed people, and in the dark night, we could only see three cold lights staggered and collided with each other.
Han Yu turned from defense to attack after figuring out the routines of the two men in black, he still held a knife in one hand, but the Dongying knife was too heavy, no matter how he looked at it, he was a little uncomfortable, and gradually the two men in black were a little unable to parry, Han Yu's target has always been on the person holding the wooden box, and the knife stabbed straight to the man's chest, the man closed the knife to block, but he should be used to holding the knife with both hands, and now he is still holding the wooden box with one hand, Han Yu slashed the man with a knife and couldn't resist and knelt on the ground. Han Yu backhanded the man in black with his chest and ordered the door to open, this split was done in one go without any mud and water, Han Yu swung his knife at the man's neck, the man in black instinctively retreated his body, and the wooden box in his hand had been snatched by Han Yu and thrown to me.
I opened the wooden box and it was filled with copper sheets, although the other party was three people, it was clear that it was not the opponent of Han Yu and the prince at all, I was about to let them be restrained, suddenly the low roar from Yinyue's mouth became louder and louder, and its head kept looking around, which showed that Yinyue sensed that there was danger and was slowly approaching, we looked around at the dark fields, and slowly revealed a pair of blood-red eyes distributed around us, I looked up and found that the roof was also covered with such bloody eyes, and you were eye-catching in the dark night.
The bloody eyes gradually approached us, and the three of us stood back to back, surrounded by many people in black who were dressed in the same way, the sharp blades in their hands refracted the cold light, when did they appear We didn't even notice it at all, and now that they are surrounded, although the other party has a large number of people, the prince and Han Yu should be able to deal with it, they sandwiched me behind me one left and one right, and the silver moon psychic knows that the weakest thing is that I stand in front of me.
I looked around at the blood-red eyes of these black-clothed men with eager killing, all staring at the wooden box in my hand, and I could see that these people were bound to get the wooden box and would do whatever it took to get it, and until now they had not said a word, and they completely relied on eye contact with each other.
They rushed towards us almost at the same time, although they were numerous, but they were definitely not a chaotic attack, and it was clear that they had extremely skilful cooperation and tacit understanding between them, and they were methodical and tightly like a web of knives attacking us wave after wave.
Because I want to protect myself, the prince and Han Yu can't go all out and let go, they must stay by my side every inch, two men in black swung their knives at the prince at the same time, and the prince stabbed two Dongying knives from the front and back of his body, and the prince's elbows fell suddenly and hit the elbows of the two, I heard the sound of broken bones but I didn't hear the screams of the two people.
The prince was merciful and compassionate, and he couldn't bear to kill the enemy, so he took his palm on his waist and struck the two of them in the chest, and the two of them flew out like kites with broken strings, and even the people who rushed up behind were knocked to the ground.
The power of these two palms can be imagined, although it will not kill them, but at least they should not be able to get up, who knows that the two people did not struggle to stand up without difficulty, they each broke one hand, but with the other pulled out the short knife at the waist.
I was stunned for a moment, even the prince was a little dazed, I guess he didn't expect that the person who was knocked down by himself would be able to stand up unharmed, he had just been distracted and the overwhelming sword light roared, Han Yu saw that the prince hesitated and hurriedly held a knife to help him resist, Han Yu was originally defending passively everywhere, so distracted to help the prince completely expose his side to the other party.
Yikes!
The sharp blade of the Dongying knife easily cut through Han Yu's back, I saw him frowning, clenching his teeth, completely ignoring his own safety, helping the prince block the two knives that were chopped down, the prince saw that Han Yu was injured and then came back to his senses, and with his eyebrows closed, his hands were folded and he quietly put the two knives that Han Yu was holding in his hands, and his body retreated and pulled, and the two black-clothed people holding the knife couldn't help but take a step forward, the prince clenched his palms into fists, and his knuckles were slightly convex, and a move hit the temples of the two of them with two winds.
This time the prince really didn't have mercy, with his strength, he was hit by this move, and it is estimated that he will faint severely, and the prince immediately retracted and struck out the two of them and fell to the ground, although Han Yu could deal with it easily, but I saw that the wound on his back was deep and bone-deep, and blood kept gushing out.
The silver moon in front of him swooped left and right, although those black-clothed people had blades in their hands, they couldn't get close to it, and the silver-moon's constantly twitching lips showed sharp and sharp teeth in the moonlight, and its eyes were even more bloodthirsty and violent than these black-clothed people.
Han Yu and the prince were stunned in place, and I also looked ahead in shock, the two black-clothed men who were knocked to the ground by the prince didn't even struggle and stood up.
"This ...... Who are these people? The prince was amazed.
Han Yu and I both realized the seriousness of the situation, this group of people joining forces may not be their opponents, but a group of people who can't be defeated will not be able to resist such a turn attack sooner or later, just as the prince was shocked, Han Yu and I were also surprised how this group of people in black could still get up.
Just as we hesitated for a moment, the fierce attack of the man in black did not stop because of this, and the two men in black who rushed up to me, one was hit by Yinyue and the other knife was bitten by Yinyue as soon as the knife was swung over, and Yinyue bit the knife in the man's hand with sharp teeth and fell to the ground, but he quickly pulled out another short knife from behind and stabbed Yinyue in the back.
I was so surprised that I didn't have time to pick up the knife on the ground and stab it hard at the man's chest, the black-clothed man's knife stopped at the back of Yinyue, and he took a step back with his body twitching, and the long Dongying knife sank from his chest into the tip of the knife and embedded it in his body through his back.
Giggle......
The sound of a rooster crowing pierced the silence of the night, and at that moment all the people in black stopped, and they all looked at the slightly white sky, Han Yu and the prince were preoccupied with vigilance, while my eyes kept falling on the person I stabbed in the chest.
He didn't fall!
Like the other men in black, I looked at the sky in the distance that was about to break, and slowly turned my head, I found that the bloody eyes of these men in black gradually returned to normal, but the man actually grasped the hilt of the knife inserted in his chest and slowly pulled it out under our shocked gaze.
There was no blood on the blade that had sunk into his body.
Their eyes were fixed on the wooden box I was holding tightly in my hand all the time, and they were so persistent in wanting to keep it for themselves, but in the end they slowly retreated as when they appeared, quietly and silently disappearing into the darkness without a trace.
