Chapter 41: Crisis
Early in the morning, the Hezong Dao Martial Arts Hall is very lively. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Most of the families of the rescued girls were very simple, and they cried with joy after welcoming their daughters back, and they were full of gratitude to the people up and down the Hezong Dao Martial Arts Hall. Early in the morning, a large group of people came to the door with all kinds of gifts, mainly fruits and vegetables, and there was an endless stream of thanks, and the gifts from various neighbors placed here by Liu Xi in the kitchen were piled up into a small mountain.
This continued until the early afternoon.
"Master Chen, thank you! Thank you! If it weren't for you, our family really didn't know what to do, Xiaoli, she still knew what would happen......
"It's okay, but it's not been too peaceful lately, so you have to be more careful in the future. ”
Chen Hexiang spoke softly, sent the last family who came to thank him to the door, and watched the family of three gradually walk away before returning to the practice ground.
Today's He Xiong has also changed a lot compared with usual, it seems that he has been stimulated by this incident, and the whole person has become a little taciturn, and he has practiced martial arts much harder than before.
Chen Hexiang sighed, but he didn't persuade anything, just walked towards the bedroom where Xi Beichen and Lu Yourong were recuperating in the backyard.
As soon as he pushed open the door, Xiao Lan was carefully picking up the medicine bowl, preparing to feed Xi Beichen medicine, seeing Xiao Lan's actions, the corners of Xi Beichen's eyes jumped, and he said in a low voice:
"Miss Xiaolan, I still have the strength to drink medicine, put it there, I can do it myself. ”
Xiao Lan smiled secretly in her heart, this Senior Brother Xi is really face-saving, and he still wants to save face at this time. When Sister Xiaoxi came to take the medicine before, she found that he couldn't wipe his face and kept pretending to be asleep, so she let herself come over.
"Okay, Senior Brother Xi, you put it here, you have to remember to drink it, it's not good if it's cold. ”
She knew that Chen Hexiang seemed to have something to say to Xi Beichen, so she didn't stay long, stood up and greeted Chen Hexiang, and walked out of the house and closed the door.
After Xiao Lan left, Chen Hexiang sat down in front of the bed, watched Xi Beichen tilt his neck, and drank the medicine, his tone was as bitter as the medicine he drank:
"Master, this time my sister and I really let you see the joke. ”
Chen Hexiang frowned, said with a serious face:
"Beichen, what nonsense are you talking about? In this world, no one can be undefeated forever, and his skills are not as good as others, and it is not a problem for you to cultivate hard to find the field. You're so young, you have so much potential, you have unlimited possibilities, what can this little setback in front of you be?"
Xi Beichen said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid this field will never be recovered." ”
"En?" Chen Hexiang frowned and asked, "What's going on? Who did you meet? Who beat you like this?"
It was too late last night, and there were many people talking about it, dealing with all kinds of bits and pieces, plus Liu Xi and Xiao Lan had been busy treating Xi Beichen and Lu Yourong's injuries, Chen Hexiang didn't have time to ask the two of them about the situation.
Although it was a shame, there was nothing to hide in front of Chen Hexiang, and Xi Beichen whispered to Chen Hexiang about the situation last night.
After listening to Xi Beichen's words, Chen Hexiang was stunned in place, and a storm had already stirred up in his heart!
It was Li Zheng who instructed this group of bandits to rob people behind their backs!
In order to set up this trap in order to attract someone to appear, it was also Li Zheng who made Xi Beichen and Lu Yourong look like this!
In the end, he was killed by the mysterious martial artist who appeared, and the middle-aged man in the brocade robe who couldn't find a single intact bone on his body was still Li Zheng!
A chill surged from the bottom of his heart, and Chen Hexiang suddenly had a sense of depression shrouded in a great conspiracy.
Who is Li Zheng? It is definitely not as simple as the city lord of a small border city appointed by the Martial Arts Alliance on the surface.
Why did he arrest these girls? What is the connection with Xiao Lan's arrest? Is it just human trafficking or is there some other purpose?
Chen Hexiang had also wandered in the Central Domain when he was young, and he was very aware of the fact that there were some notorious crooked ways that used some bloody means to quickly improve their cultivation.
What is the knife in Li Zheng's mouth? Why does that mysterious martial artist appear here? Who is the Lei Feng who delivered the news to the martial arts hall? Is he the demon sword?
One question after another swirled in my mind, and the answers to these questions were difficult to solve with the defeat of Li Zheng.
Chen Hexiang let out a breath and said to Xi Beichen with a solemn expression:
"Beichen, this matter is not trivial, the person who was killed by the mysterious martial artist is the city lord of Beiwu City, this matter, don't mention it again in the future. If the news is leaked, whether it is my martial arts hall or you and Yourong, you may be in great trouble. Remember, no matter who you talk to, don't mention it!"
Compared with Xi Beichen and Lu Yourong, Chen Hexiang is undoubtedly more experienced, and from the matter of Li Zheng's death, he suddenly smelled a very dangerous smell. If this matter is not handled well, I am afraid it will bring great trouble.
The lord of Kitago Castle?
Xi Beichen was also taken aback, he was also not stupid, linked to Li Zheng's identity, coupled with the speculation about the origin of Li Zheng's martial arts during the battle, he had a vague guess about Li Zheng's purpose in an instant. He looked straight at Chen Hexiang and said:
"Master, when this Li Zheng was fighting against us, Yourong and I also had some guesses about his martial arts origins. ”
"Oh, which sect, or martial arts?"
Xi Beichen shook his head and said, "Red Blood Sect! Although I am not completely sure, when this Li Zheng and us make a move, the smell of blood between his punches and kicks can almost be smelled. ”
The atmosphere between the two suddenly fell silent, Chen Hexiang did not speak, but only felt his eyelids jump wildly.
The Red Blood Cult is actually a sect, but it has a very dehumanizing doctrine, and this sect believes in drawing strength from human blood.
In fact, it did allow them to research some bloody and cruel methods, which could be transformed and absorbed from the blood of people who met some specific conditions, and enhance their cultivation.
This sect was very prosperous in private for a while, and after their inhumane secret method of emitting the blood of living people was exposed, it was jointly exterminated by several sect martial arts dojos that could not bear it.
Although such a large faction of thousands of people perished after paying a great price, it also escaped a lot of fish that slipped through the net, and gradually began to have a tendency to resurge.
If Xi Beichen and Lu Yourong's guess is not wrong, Li Zheng is really related to the Red Blood Sect or is simply a member of the Red Blood Sect, then this time it will not just be as simple as trouble, it is very likely to evolve into a catastrophe!
A great sense of crisis came to his heart, Chen Hexiang stood up suddenly, and he said to Xi Beichen:
"Beichen, you take care of your injuries, I will handle this matter, after recuperating your injuries and not hindering your actions, you and Yourong will immediately return to the Indulgence Flow Martial Arts Dojo!"
