Night into the second watch.

The inn is as quiet as the deep mountains and old forests.

Although the first one to say that she was going to stay up all night to guard the Xuanyue Gate tonight was Yingli, when they came to Qu Boyin's room, she was the first to fall asleep.

And now in the room, there are still two people who are strong in spirit, one is Chen Yin and the other is Tong Qi. The two of them stared at each other, and they both had nothing to talk about, afraid that they would fall asleep after using up their strength to say a few more words.

'Knock!'" two loud thunderbolts broke through the silence.

Almost everyone in the inn was awakened by these two blows.

Yingli got up suddenly, her face was sleepy, and she asked in horror, "What's the matter, did the thunder fall into the town?"

The two blows just now scared the copper up, and now it hasn't eased up.

"It looks like someone knocked on the inn door again. Chen Yin said.

The sound was loud and urgent, as if someone was slamming the door with an iron lump.

"Who is so bitter and hateful, knocking on the door so vigorously?" Yingli muttered as she rubbed her sleepy eyes.

Chen Yin shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it's not knocking on the door, but something is broken, I didn't feel the breath of someone outside the inn." ”

"Let it be, that's fine," Copper Qi stretched, "the two sounds just now scared me out of my sleepiness." ”

Chen Yin smiled and opened the door a small crack. He saw the candles in the hall downstairs being lit, and the shopkeeper and some of the residents were walking towards the door.

After a while, Chanyu also came over, knocked lightly on the door, and then entered the room.

"You were also woken up by that voice just now?" Chen Yin got up and leaned against the door, still watching the movement in the hall.

"Ah," Chanyu's hair was a little messy, but it revealed a hint of ethereal care, "Is there any movement in those rooms of Xuanyue Gate?"

"Not a single fart was released," replied Tong Qi dissatisfiedly, "and they were not in a hurry at all. ”

"Don't say that it's not in a hurry if someone loses it," Yingli lay on the bed, her hand pillow hidden in her silver hair and pillowed her head, and said lazily, "It's not that the reason why I came back this time is because the head of Qiu Yi was killed by my junior brother, so I came back to take revenge, but you see that they are not in a hurry, and they even have the heart to go to the market to cause trouble-"

"Senior sister, you're just kidding—"

"Dead man, dead man!" suddenly shouted from downstairs.

Chen Yin, Chanyu and Tong Qi immediately knelt down by the door and looked down, and Yingli also sat up, looking alert.

"There's a person lying at the door, man," Chanyu's position was just the first to be seen at the angle, "and he was wearing the clothes of Xuanyuemen..."

"Is it Lao Yuan?" asked Tong Qi.

Chanyu shook her head and said, "I don't know, I practice almost every day in Xuanyuemen, and I don't know many people. ”

"Shh," Chen Yin whispered, "Ling Qingxi and a few Xuanyue Sect disciples went down. ”

"What are you going to do with such a noise," Ling Qingxi seemed to have come down to find the store to theorize, "We have given enough money to the store, don't ask..."

"Guest officer, you came just in time," the shopkeeper didn't have time to listen to his complaints, quickly stepped aside, and pointed to the person lying outside the door, "He seems to be the person with you?"

"What kind of person?" Ling Qingxi didn't know what was going on, and when he looked at the light of the small second-hand oil lamp, his whole face turned pale.

"Big brother... This is Yuan..."

The few Xuanyue Sect disciples who came with him were terrified, and before they could finish their words, they were interrupted by Ling Qingxi raising his hand.

"See if it's dead or alive. Ling Qingxi said coldly.

A Xuanyue disciple stepped forward and sniffed, then shook his head.

"Who did that?" Ling Qingxi gritted her teeth and looked at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper waved his hand again and again: "I don't know, I heard someone slamming the door just now, and I didn't come out with everyone to take a look, and I saw this person lying outside the door of the inn." ”

Ling Qingxi glanced at the people around her, and everyone echoed the shopkeeper's statement.

"You carry him back to the room first!" Ling Qingxi said to a few of the juniors who accompanied him.

But those people were about to bow down and lift Lao Yuan up, but they suddenly retreated.

"What are you doing," Ling Qingxi said angrily, "Don't hurry up yet!"

"Big... Big brother... He... He also had a letter on him. ”

Ling Qingxi grabbed the letter and squeezed it in his hand without looking at it: "Quickly carry it back to the room, and then wake up all the disciples for me." ”

Chen Yin carefully closed the door, and the four of them retreated to the table.

"Judging by their reactions, it's Lao Yuan," Chanyu said, "is he dead?"

"I checked it, and there was really no breath. ”

"How did you die?" asked Yingli.

"Poisoned, the green tendons on his neck turned black, and the blood vessels around him were dark red and oozing blood," Tong Qi said. ”

"Things are getting more and more unclear," Chen Yin said, "I'll sneak in to see the situation later, hoping to hear some useful information." ”

"By the way, didn't there be a letter just now, and the content of the letter should be very important. Chanyu reminded.
