Chapter 186: The Little Teahouse is full of suspicions
Mu Qianmei looked at Yan Wansong's changing expression, and roughly guessed the change in his thoughts, and her heart also changed with the subtle change of his expression.
Hearing his question, Mu Qianmei also understood, he probably thought about the current situation clearly, this was just looking for steps to go down, so he replied:
"The story of the incident is basically the same as what the little tea boy said, and I think Captain Yan knows the truth of the matter very well, and I believe that Captain Yan must have made up his mind about it, and Fluttershy is waiting for Captain Yan's decision."
Yan Wansong looked at Qin Shuhao again and said majestically:
"Qin Gongzi forced Princess Yunyu to accompany him to drink tea, which is indeed wrong; Princess Yunyu's subordinates hit people first, which is also wrong. ”
"However, in view of the tense situation at the time, the girl was anxious, and the reason was wrong, but it was also excusable, since this was a misunderstanding, and both sides were at fault, then neither party was punished."
"Now, the Eastern Qin Kingdom and the Yunyu Kingdom have become friendly neighbors, which can be regarded as not knowing each other, I hope to meet again in the future, everyone can get along in harmony and focus on the overall situation."
The matter is settled.
After greeting each other for a while, they went their separate ways.
Some of the onlookers left, while others still watched from afar.
Mu Qianmei watched Yan Wansong take the people of the Eastern Qin Kingdom away, and she softly told the beggar disciples not to leave for the time being, protect the safety of the old and the young in the small teahouse, and compensate them for all their losses.
Then he also said goodbye to the owner of the small teahouse and Chu Feng, took the people with him, got into the carriage, and left slowly.
However, they hadn't left far before they heard a miserable cry from the small teahouse behind them, and Mu Qianmei's face couldn't help but change.
Hearing the screams, Mu Qianmei and the others immediately returned to the small teahouse.
"Grandpa, grandpa, wake up quickly, you can't leave Feng'er!"
Chu Feng's cries and calls were heard from afar.
Mu Qianmei didn't wait for the carriage to stop, she jumped out of the carriage, walked into the small teahouse and took a look, only to see that the owner of the teahouse had fallen in a pool of blood, and Chu Feng was kneeling on the ground crying and calling for his grandfather.
In front of the teahouse owner's chest, a throwing knife was inserted into his heart accurately, and the clothes on his chest had been stained red by the blood donation.
Mu Qianmei ran forward and sniffed, but there was no longer any breathing.
Several of the beggar gang disciples who were secretly protecting came out dejectedly, and one of them stepped forward and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, miss, my subordinates are incompetent and didn't protect them."
Mu Qianmei asked in a deep voice:
"Do you see each other's people?"
The man replied ashamedly:
"When we chased out, we saw a figure flash into the woods, and we saw only that it was a man. We still had three men chasing after us, but with that man's light skills, it would be difficult for our men to catch up. ”
Mu Qianmei immediately ordered:
"Summons Lone Star Hall, the real culprit must be found out as soon as possible."
After the beggar disciple retreated, Mu Qianmei walked towards Chu Feng, reached out and patted his back lovingly, and said softly:
"Chu Feng, grandpa is dead, let's let him be buried as soon as possible! In the future, you will follow us, practice your skills well, and avenge your grandfather with your own hands in the future, okay? ”
Chu Feng sobbed intermittently, slowly calmed down, and then said with endless hatred:
"Okay, Feng'er must avenge her grandfather with her own hands. I want to worship this sister as a teacher, she can knock down even a bearded person with a random shot, and I want to learn her martial arts. ”
Chu Feng said, looking at the flowers beside Mu Qianmei with anticipation.
Hua Duanrou was very surprised and replied apologetically:
"Sister, I have always only accepted female disciples, not boys as apprentices. Actually, Princess Fluttershy's martial arts skills are much higher than mine, and there are many masters in the beggar gang, so why don't you see what martial arts are right for you and make a decision? ”
Chu Feng said disappointedly:
"Does my sister think I'm not smart enough to teach me? If you accept me, I will definitely study and practice hard. ”
When Mu Qianmei saw his expression and tone, a figure of a person quickly appeared in her mind, Mo Huan.
Mo Huan used to have such an expression and eyes, resolute and resolute.
So, Mu Qianmei opened her mouth and said:
"Sister Hua
It's not that my sister dislikes you for not being smart enough, but her martial arts are only suitable for women to cultivate, so she can't accept you as an apprentice. Come back with us, I will introduce you to a master who is more suitable for you, his swordsmanship is very powerful, and it is easier to get started, and the progress is relatively fast, you can rest assured, as long as you work hard, you will soon become a master. ”
Chu Feng stopped insisting at this time, and looked at his grandfather who fell to the ground, and couldn't help but feel sad again.
With the help of the beggar disciples, the monk was invited to practice the matter that night, and the owner of the small teahouse was simply buried early the next morning.
After Chu Feng cried in front of the grave, he reluctantly left, and followed Mu Qianmei and his party out of this small teahouse that made him infinitely fond of it.
Mu Qianmei asked the beggar to help the disciple arrange someone to come and continue to take care of this small teahouse, which can be regarded as a thought of Chu Feng.
Sitting in the carriage, Mu Qianmei silently recalled what had happened in the past few days, and felt that the most innocent person who died was the owner of this small teahouse, and the matter was inseparable from her arrival, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart.
I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies for me.
Seeing his expression, Hua Zhi comforted him softly:
"Sister, don't think about it, no one wants to see such a thing, it's an accident after all."
Mu Qianmei replied faintly:
"Actually, when I was about to leave yesterday, I was worried about such a thing, and I wanted to leave with them at that time, but seeing that the old man had a lot of feelings for this small teahouse, he would not be willing to leave at all, so I gave up such an idea."
"I thought that there should be no accidents with the disciples of the beggar gang around to protect me, but I didn't expect an accident to happen in the blink of an eye."
"It's still a very powerful master, looking at that flying knife skill, it doesn't seem to be worse than the Nangong family!"
"Sending such a master to kill an unarmed old man who doesn't know martial arts is obviously aimed at our beggar gang."
"Who could that be?"
Hua Qian Rou guessed:
"Either the people of the Eastern Qin Kingdom kill people to vent their anger, or the people of the Southern Tang Kingdom continue to blame the Eastern Qin Kingdom, who else will there be besides the people of these two countries?"
Mu Qianmei thought about it and didn't have much of a clue, but she still said suspiciously:
"There has already been such a case before, and there should be no need for Nantang Guo to repeat the same trick. The people of the Eastern Qin State were under Yan Wansong's command, and with his style of life, they would not allow Qin Shuhao to make such a move. ”
"I feel that the opponent this time should be coming for our beggar gang, but I can't think of it for a while, who will it be?"
When it was almost noon, a beggar gang spy came to report that the three disciples of the beggar gang who followed the murderer yesterday had been killed in the depths of the woods.
The same is a flying knife that stabs the heart directly, and it kills with one move.
Mu Qianmei frowned, with a sad and indignant expression, she asked in a cold voice:
"What about the people of Lone Star Hall? Don't they have a clue yet? ”
The visitor replied:
"Hall Master Mo and Deputy Hall Master Liu are already investigating by hand, and there is no whereabouts of the murderer for the time being."
After the person retreated, Mu Qianmei said with some surprise:
"Even Tingfeng and Mo Huan haven't been able to find out the clues, it seems that this person's background is not small!"
Hua Durou thought about it and replied:
"After all, the enemy is in the dark, our people are in the light, and the other party obviously deliberately hides his martial arts and uses flying knives, which is the stunt of the Nangong family."
"However, if you can avoid the eyes of the beggars, you must also be people who know more about the beggar gang, and there must not be many people who can go against the beggars and have martial arts that are not low."
Mu Qianmei thought back to the enemies of the beggar gang for a while, and said confusedly:
"There are a lot of enemies of the Beggar Gang, the Eastern Qin Kingdom, the Southern Tang Kingdom, the Netherworld Sect, and all the people in the Cult Alliance all have entangled grievances and grievances with the Beggar Gang, and there are countless masters, and this range is really hard to determine."
Hua Durou thought for a while, and said with a wry smile:
"This is also true, there are so many gangs in the cult alliance, there are many masters, the Eastern Qin Kingdom now has the support of the Eastern Family and the Qinling faction, and it is also a master, the Southern Tang Dynasty is a big country, plus the Netherworld Sect is secretly helping, it is not difficult to find such a master."
"This is indeed a very difficult case!"
The two of them couldn't figure out a clue for a while, so they had to wait for the news from Lone Star Hall.
On the other side, Liu Tingfeng and Mo Huan followed the clues and subtle
traced, pursued all the way, actually passed through the heavy forest, and came to the border of the Southern Tang Kingdom.
Out of the forest, there is a boundless prairie.
When you get to the steppe, you can't find it.
With their tracking skills and speed, they couldn't catch up, which was also unprecedented.
Liu Tingfeng looked at the vast and boundless prairie and fell into contemplation for a while.
Mo Huan also had a helpless expression on his face, and said suspiciously:
"It's the Southern Tang Kingdom again, could it be that the sect leader of the Netherworld Sect can't make a move in person?"
Liu Tingfeng thought for a while and replied:
"I don't think this is Situ Chang's style of laughing, but this person is really not a general."
Mo Huan looked at this uninhabited prairie and asked Liu Tingfeng:
"Do you think we're continuing to track? Let's go back and recover first! ”
Liu Tingfeng thought for a moment and replied:
"I think it's pointless to chase any further, the other party has been in the grassland for a long time, and there is no trace here, let's retreat for the time being!"
After the two finished speaking, they turned back and entered the forest.
And where they had just left, there was a steep cliff on the left, about fifty feet high, and it seemed that no one could climb it.
But at this moment, there is a hidden cave more than ten zhang away from the top of the mountain, and when you look up from below, you can't see the entrance of the cave because of the rocks.
At this time, in the cave, two people were holding their breath, quietly hiding in the cave, and listening intently to the movement under the cliff.
It wasn't until he heard the conversation between Liu Tingfeng and Mo Huan, and heard them enter the woods and walk away, that a man's voice said:
"Big brother, do we need to be so careful? They are so far away, they still have to hold their breath, those two boys are not gods, if we face the enemy head-on, we may not lose to them! ”
Another old voice replied heavily:
"Second child, after so many years of walking in the rivers and lakes, we can still live, in addition to strength and luck, this caution is also a very important reason, your injury has just healed, why is it that the scar forgets the pain?"
The man named Second Elder remembered the sword that was injured last time, and he still had palpitations, so he said ashamedly:
"The lesson of the eldest brother is that I really didn't expect that young man to have such a magical swordsmanship, I didn't even have the strength to fight back with a move, I thought it was caused by a light enemy, now I think about it, even if I fight head-on, the distance between me and him is still very far! I really can't figure out how his swordsmanship is practiced. Even if you start practicing martial arts in your mother's womb, it won't be more than 20 years! ”
The person who was called the eldest brother said with some interest at this time:
"Maybe the era that belongs to us has long been in the past, we have been hiding in the mountains for so many years, thinking that we have practiced peerless martial arts and are invincible in the world."
"But I don't know, the outside world has undergone earth-shaking changes, during this time you are here to heal, I went out to inquire about the news, only to know that the current Yugu Continent is already a situation of three kingdoms, in addition to the powerful Eastern Qin Kingdom and the Southern Tang Kingdom still exist, do you know that country is standing with them now?"
Without waiting for the second child to answer, he continued:
"It turned out to be the puppet country Yunyu Country carefully cultivated by the Eastern Qin State back then, but now the crane in the clouds has successfully restored the country and has become the monarch of the Yunyu Kingdom."
"He has a good daughter who is well-known in the Yugu Continent, it was really unfavorable for us to go out of the mountain that day, no coincidence, but what we met was Mu Qianmei, the princess of Yunyu Country, and her other identity is the young lady of the beggar gang, that is, the little girl adopted by Feng Tianyu back then, and now she is still the leader of the Decent Martial Arts Alliance."
"The one who rode and followed her carriage that day was his junior brother, called Liu Tingfeng, a disciple of the Sword Saint Ye Suifeng, who had disappeared for many years, you say, our swordsmanship is not like playing with a child in his eyes!"
"Nowadays, the beggar gang is inextricably linked with Yun Yu Country, in addition to Mu Qianmei's dual identity, Liu Tingfeng is also the long-lost younger brother of Zhuang Shujun, the deputy gang leader of the beggar gang, and Zhuang Shujun and Ouyang Bo are senior brothers, both of whom have studied under Tianjisuo, and now Zhuang Shujun is serving as the captain of Yun Yu Country."
"I wanted to wait for an opportunity to deal with Mu Qianmei, but unfortunately, in addition to her own unfathomable strength, she has always been accompanied by Hua Duan, and the Lone Star Hall of the Beggar Gang is also secretly protecting, and has never had a chance to make a move, that day coincided with the meeting, I killed an inconsequential old man to vent my anger, and was chased so embarrassed, our hope of revenge is getting slimmer and slimmer!"
For a moment, both fell into a dejected silence.
