Chapter 61: Rationalization and chaos
Outside the orphanage, the fire was already raging.
Under the command of the government officials, everyone relayed to extinguish the fire, but the previous earthquake buried many wells, and it took more time to get water.
"Chief, there's no one in there. A government official reported.
"Everyone pay attention to safety, first isolate the perimeter and control the fire. The leader shouted.
Ning Jian looked at the burning orphanage, but could not find the children.
At the corner of the street, a woman saw that Ning Jian's clothes were tattered and stained with a lot of blood, and remembered the man's instructions before.
The woman walked up to Ning Jian and said, "Your name is Ning Jian." Before, a man asked me to ask you to go to the mountain temple outside the east city. ”
Mountain Temple?
Ning Jian thanked him and left immediately.
..........
The road is full of ruined streets after the earthquake, and there is chaos.
By the time Ning Jian arrived outside the East City, it was already dark.
In the mountain temple not far away, the warm colors of the bonfire are bright and conspicuous.
There was only half of the temple door left, and Ning Jian stepped on the threshold to enter.
Beside the campfire in the center, a man dressed in black sits upright, with a short printed knife at his feet, and a cloak covering his head, so that his face cannot be seen clearly.
In the corner, a huddled figure trembled and was wounded.
Ning Jian's footsteps stopped, wary of the man by the firelight, but the corner of his eye kept glancing at that corner.
"Dongshun, how are you?"
There were a few snorts, and it seemed that they were barely speaking.
The man in black stood up and plunged the short knife back into his waist. The qi machine had locked on Ning Jian, and his body was as straight as a rod.
The hoarse voice was disgusting, "I gave him a spirit Gu. The man who sold me said that he would die in three hours. ”
"You've been here slower than I expected, and it's been two hours. ”
Ning Jian forced himself to calm down, "What do you want?"
"You, I, live one. ”
The young man said coldly, "There are enough people who died today. I want a reason. ”
The man in black pulled down the cloak on his head, revealing an unfamiliar face, wearing a single eyelid mask, and a hideous scar extending from his left ear to his mouth.
Ning Jian had a conjecture in his heart.
"You are Hu Enjue. ”
The man in black did not deny it.
He is Hu Enjue, the leader of the Black Wolf Gang who has not appeared for a long time. It is also the person that the City Lord's Mansion is trying to find in every possible way.
"I think you're mistaken. I've had a bit of a holiday with the Black Wolves, but I've never killed any of your people. The Black Wolf Gang was rampant and dominated the market, selling the Three Immortals, which was exterminated by the City Lord's Mansion. ”
Seeing that Hu En never squeaked, Ning Jian continued:
"I can also tell you that the person who has been manipulating the Black Wolf Gang behind his back, that is, the former City Lord's Mansion Master, is the one who single-handedly planned the assassination of the City Lord's daughter and blamed the Black Wolf Gang. ”
Huen's one-eyed face stared at the flickering flames, his face distorted with anger, and the scar even more permeating.
"I know the killer, you killed him. I, like him, was one of the man's knives. ”
Ning Jian recalled the killer who turned into a snake man in the peach blossom forest, and then looked at Hu Enjue in front of him, and understood a little more in his heart.
Hu Wanqiu continued: "This month, I killed thirteen people outside for that person. ”
Ning Jian was puzzled: "You mean, the master deliberately transferred you away?!"
In this way, before Sun Xianbin, the owner of the new city, took office, the master had already set a plan to exterminate the Black Wolf Gang. The fire that Ning Jian put in the tofu shop was just a coincidence.
Ning Jian thought of this, and his fear of his master deepened a little.
"Then why do you still want to do this? Even if the master has left, you can also seek revenge on Cui Tong and Hong Xiulang, after all, Hu Wanqiu died at their hands. ”
The firewood in the campfire made a few popping noises and splashed a little ash.
"I've killed them. ”
Ning Jian's eyes widened violently, and he watched Hu En say this so lightly.
Even if Cui Tong's arm was abolished, that red embroiderer was also a master of the tattoo master level, and he was killed like this..........
In the face of such a dangerous character, Ning Jian did not want to entangle with him anymore, and the most important thing at the moment was to rescue Dongshun.
Ning Jian raised his voice and said, "Then you go to find that master." What do you have to do with me!"
"Hand over the antidote!" was already angry.
I don't want to hear Hu Enjue's cold snort:
"You don't know? He did all of this for you. ”
Ning Jian was stunned on the spot, his face was incredulous, and his thoughts were flying.
That day, in the master's room, I asked him the reason for all this, and he said that it was to kill boredom.....
The look on his face when he finally opened the secret door.....
The inexplicable 'you should go'.....
Finally, Ning Jian's true identity was also pointed out.....
As the teenager pondered, more strange things came to mind.
The orphanage has existed for so many years, and the Black Wolf Gang has also been entrenched in Tianshui City for a long time, why did those three gangsters suddenly come to the door to make trouble?
Obviously, the owner of the gambling house is timid and afraid, how could his subordinates cheat the city lord's daughter without knowing it?
Everything lingered in the young man's mind, not only did not clear the clouds, but became more and more chaotic.
"Anyway, you hand over the antidote first!"
couldn't figure it out, so Ning Jian had no choice but to solve the current situation first.
Seeing that the young man had finally made a decision, Hu Enjue sneered: "Then let's fight!"
Before he could finish speaking, the hand on the hilt of the knife had already moved.
He had already seen Hu Wanqiu's swift and windy methods, Ning Jian didn't dare to hold it up, so he quickly flashed to the side to avoid his edge first.
Shhh
Ning Jian's right trouser leg was torn open, and there was faint blood soaking.
Still not completely dodged, Ning Jian firmly believed that he had exerted his extreme speed.
Even if he was already a fifth-stage tattoo master, he was still the same as before, and he didn't even see the other party's sword light clearly.
The only good news was that this sword light was not like Xie Shien's sword qi, and it was absorbed by the gluttonous spirit pattern as soon as it entered the body. But often ordinary knife wounds can kill people the most, and Ning Jian doesn't feel that he has anything special.
Hu Enjue's knife had been unsheathed, but it was not completely closed, leaving a gap.
"The first knife. ”
After saying that, Hu Enjue pulled out a second knife.
Tumbling on the spot, Ning Jian hid behind the stone pillar.
The light of the knife pierced the night sky without making a sound. The stone pillar was safe and sound, and there was another knife wound on Ning Jian's side waist.
Mobilize the aura in the abdomen, tense the muscles, and temporarily stop the blood gushing out.
The young man stood with his back against the stone pillar, his right hand still pressed against the knife wound, and his breath was confused.
This Hu En's sword light seems to be able to lock on to the enemy. He didn't rely on his eyes to search, and kept locking the qi machine on Ning Jian's body.
The voice came again: "Second knife." ”
When Hu Enjie intercepted and killed Cui Tong and Hong Xiulang, Cui Tong died under the third knife, and Hong Xiulang survived to the fifth knife. In terms of realm, he and Hong Xiulang are both tattoo masters of the third stage.
Only, his knife was faster than the silver needle.
I don't know how many stabs the young man in front of him can see.....
