Chapter 8: The Mystery
Qinzhou.
Sangshui County.
An ordinary bungalow house.
"It's getting colder and colder. ”
As soon as Lu Shaoyang stepped into the house in the wind and snow, he turned around and quickly closed the door.
He took off his coat and hung it aside, and walked to the brazier in three or two steps to warm his slightly stiff hands, while he couldn't help but murmur a complaint.
"Senior brother, is there no news from Master Liu?"
Xu Ping'er stepped forward with a cup of blood in her hand.
"Nope. ”
Lu Shaoyang took the hot tea and drank it all, feeling that the chill in his chest was instantly dispelled, but the expression on his face was not very good.
"Did you have any problems?"
Xu Ping'er was lightly afraid of hitting the sporadic snowflakes that fell on Lu Shaoyang's body.
"My sister still understands me. Lu Shaoyang shook his head and sighed lightly. "Liu Da's side is unreliable. ”
"Liu Da has a reputation for being impatient and righteous in the Sangshui area, why does Senior Brother say that he is unreliable? And during this time, hasn't he been doing his best to help us track down the whereabouts of that woman?"
Xu Ping'er frowned lightly.
"Senior sister, do you remember the recent rumors that someone in the Gyeonggi area has been robbed of the heavens?"
Lu Shaoyang said helplessly.
"Of course, just in the past two days, I have seen a lot of outsiders in the wine shops and inns on the street, is it ......?"
Xu Ping'er suddenly said thoughtfully.
"Senior sister guessed correctly, and now there are rumors in the rivers and lakes that the person who got the thief is suspected of having fled to the surrounding area of Sangshui County. Lu Shaoyang smiled bitterly. "And our Liu Dang seems to have listened to this rumor, and he probably has no intention of bothering with our affairs now. ”
"But we are unfamiliar with people in Sangshui County, and the only one we can rely on is Liu Da, otherwise just because we want to find out the whereabouts of that woman is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. ”
Xu Ping'er said calmly.
"The sake is red, and the money is moving. ”
Lu Shaoyang sighed inexplicably.
"Senior brother, in fact, we may not have no other way......
Xu Ping'er pondered for a moment.
"Senior sister, I know what you want to say, but unless it is absolutely necessary, we had better not think about it......"
Lu Shaoyang's face changed when he heard this.
"Everything is based on the senior brother. ”
In this regard, Xu Pinger said no more.
"I'll go and see Brother Wang's injuries first. ”
And Lu Shaoyang returned the teacup in his hand to Xu Ping'er, and walked towards the house under the pretext.
How he didn't know what his sister meant.
If you want to solve the problem at hand.
They just have to turn to that person, and maybe everything will work out.
Here's the problem.
Lu Shaoyang didn't dare!
Especially after he heard the gossip from Wanyang.
That moment.
Lu Shaoyang only felt that it was dark in front of him, and his legs were about to go limp.
Originally, he knew that that person was a grandmaster, which was scary enough.
I didn't expect anything more terrifying.
It turns out that they are not grandmasters at all, but great grandmasters in the skin of grandmasters!
The most important thing is that he also killed Shi Shizhen, who was also a great grandmaster, and even Qing Lingjun, the master of the East Pole Heavenly Hall of the Cloud Palace, didn't pay attention to it, and directly knocked him out of Wanyang City with a punch in front of everyone.
And he also let go of the cruel words.
Qing Lingjun dared to come back and hammered him to death on the spot.
Completely ignoring the fact that behind Qing Lingjun is the Cloud Palace, which is the best in the world.
At last.
He did not hesitate to cross the border and force the imperial court to let go of the remnants of the Rescue Army.
This arrogance and domineering can be said to have shocked the eyes of the world.
And when Lu Shaoyang thought that he had gotten along with such a person day and night, he couldn't help but be shocked.
It's horrible.
It's scared to death.
Fortunately, they didn't offend each other much along the way, otherwise they really didn't even know how to write dead words.
Although the other party once said that he owed himself a favor.
But Lu Shaoyang is not a heartless person.
Who knows if the other party is deliberately polite and teasing themselves.
After all, Lu Shaoyang did not understand the other party's bad taste.
Think about Wang Huan, who is lying on the bed and has not recovered from his injuries.
So it's not a last resort.
Lu Shaoyang swore that he would never want to be involved with the other party again in his life.
The reason is simple.
He can't climb high, and he doesn't have the courage and cheekiness.
After successfully arriving in Sangshui County, Qinzhou.
Soon after Lu Shaoyang settled down, he revealed his identity and asked Liu Da to help track down a person.
Liu Da's family name is Liu Zhaoyi, and he was born in a middle-sized family in Sangshui County.
Since he was a child, he has been under the local Chishui Gang.
After 30 years of ups and downs.
Liu Zhaoyi officially became the fifty-second generation leader of the Chishui Gang, and he made a little name in the rivers and lakes.
Overall.
This is a person with a good reputation.
Although Lu Shaoyang had never dealt with Liu Zhaoyi before, he had heard of him.
What's more, if they want to find someone in Sangshui County, they will inevitably be unable to avoid Liu Zhaoyi, who is the head snake of the land.
Fortunately, Liu Zhaoyi agreed to help.
It's a pity -
Liu Zhaoyi's investigation has never been fruitful.
When Lu Shaoyang visited Liu Zhaoyi today.
He was keenly aware of the other party's perfunctory meaning under the seeming enthusiasm, combined with the rumors that have recently emerged.
He's sure.
Liu Zhaoyi's mind was shifted to the Heaven Thief Decision, and he had no time to pay attention to their affairs.
"Brother Wang, are you feeling better?"
Inside the house.
Lu Shaoyang looked at Wang Huandao, who was breathing steadily on the bed, with concern.
"Brother Lao Shaoyang, I have been able to walk around in the past two days, but I don't have much strength. ”
Wang Huan said with a relieved smile.
"According to Brother Wang's recovery speed, maybe in another ten days and a half months, you won't have to lie in bed every day to recuperate. ”
Lu Shaoyang also smiled after taking Wang Huan's pulse.
"Brother Shaoyang, how is the news from Liu Da's family?"
After a few simple small talks, Wang Huan couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Wang......"
Lu Shaoyang did not hide it, and directly repeated what he had said to Xu Ping'er before.
"It's not to blame Liu Da Boss, after all, Liu Da Boss has helped everything he should have helped, and he didn't owe us anything. ”
Wang Huan couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this.
"Brother Wang, are you sure that it was that woman who murdered Brother Yao Han in the first place?"
Lu Shaoyang sighed lightly.
"For I can't think of anyone but her who would murder my brother. ”
Wang Huan said in a deep voice.
According to Wang Huan.
When he traveled with Yao Han, he never took the initiative to provoke right and wrong, and he didn't have any enemies in the rivers and lakes.
Only once.
They encountered a strange thing in Sangshui County.
That.
The brothers were about to return to their hometown after traveling through the capital, but it was late when they passed through Sangshui County, so they simply stayed in Sangshui County.
Who knows that it will be around the middle of the night.
Wang Huan keenly heard a strange noise coming from Yao Han's room next door.
Out of vigilance, he immediately knocked on Yao Han's door to ask what was going on, but Yao Han opened the door and told him that he was fine, and the strange noise he heard should be a wild cat and mouse accidentally sneaking into his room.
At that time, Wang Huan didn't think much about it and returned to the room.
A quarter of an hour later.
Wang Huan, who had not been asleep for a long time, woke up again.
Because he heard someone suddenly knock on Yao Han's door.
He hurriedly got up and walked out of the room.
As a result, I saw a very beautiful woman standing outside Yao Han's door.
The other party asked Yao Han if anyone had come to his room a quarter of an hour ago.
But Yao Han shook his head and said no.
Women don't believe it.
Yao Han simply let the door open and let the other party search.
The woman did not search, but warned Yao Han that if he deceived himself, he would bear the consequences.
Then the woman left directly.
Wang Huan asked Yao Han in confusion, but Yao Han signaled that it was okay, and the other party may have misunderstood something.
Early the next morning.
When the two left Sangshui County and went out of the city.
They met the beautiful woman again at the city gate.
The other party questioned Yao Han again.
Did anyone come to his room last night.
But Yao Han still denied it.
In the end, the woman did not continue to pester them, and Wang Huan and Yao Han returned to their hometown Nanxi safely.
On the way, Wang Huan asked Yao Han several times, what happened in Sangshui County that night?
But Yao Han smiled every time and didn't answer.
Outcome.
Three months later, Yao Han died suddenly.
Especially after learning that Yao Han died from the Heart Devouring Gu, Wang Huan had to suspect that someone had assassinated Yao Han, and the spearhead was easily pointed at the suspicious woman in Sangshui County.
Even if it wasn't her who murdered Yao Han, she must know something.
Pity.
This woman is too mysterious.
Even if Liu Zhaoyi's people asked half of the people in Sangshui County, no one knew her whereabouts so far.
"Brother Wang, since we can't count on Liu Da to be in charge now, my sister and I will always help you check it out in the future. ”
Before leaving, Lu Shaoyang did not forget to solemnly say.
Meanwhile.
An inn in Sangshui County.
"Shopkeeper, come to two good rooms. ”
At the counter.
A young man with two neat beards said to the burly shopkeeper.
"I'm sorry officer, but there is only one room left in the restaurant now. ”
The shopkeeper smiled and apologized.
"One?!"
The young man shook his eyebrows and turned his head to look at a handsome little boy who was following behind him.
"Brother Liu, look, there is only one room left in the inn now, why don't we make do with it tonight?"
“...... Everything is up to Brother Lu. ”
The handsome little student drooped his head, and his voice trembled slightly.
"Forget it, I'm going to tease you, let's change the inn. ”
The man laughed.
He turned around and left the inn.
