The night is deep, and the stars are sparse and the wind is light.

The basement of the tower of the Japanese Christian church.

Luo Shuangchen reclined on the pine single bed, weighing the dagger in his hand from time to time.

Chen Yun first stabbed his eyebrows on the thin man's shoulder, "You kid is ruthless enough, what do you and I do?" Did you know? With your set of indiscriminate methods, can you still make my master and me follow? ”

The small man sat on a chair, his hands bound by the deerskin rope that Chen Yunxian carried, "If you want to kill or chop, listen to it." Let's have some fun. I'm not going to say anything. ”

Luo Shuangchen smiled and said: "You kid is sneaky, you don't look like a good person, your skills are okay, you know the reason why I found here, do you still need me to understand?" Five days ago, Boss Lu of the Jichang Chamber of Commerce was assassinated here, that is my kowtow brother, you are hiding in this place just below the scene of his assassination, do you say you can get rid of it? At that time, many people thought that the murderer had already fled the scene, but today you fell into my hands, which is that people are not as good as heaven. I've already checked, and the 'Divine Crossbow' used to hurt him is in your baggage, how else do you explain? ”

Chen Yun smiled yin, and lit the tip of the Emei thorn at the throat of the man, not stabbing it in, nor moving it, the Emei thorn made of stainless steel belongs to one of the foreign weapons. It is mainly used for stabs, stabs, points, dials, etc. in hand-to-hand combat, a set of two, which is actually about 30 cm long, with two pointed ends, and a ring in the middle, which can be put on the middle finger of the palm of the big "needle", the tip of the thorn is against the throat of the person, the cold front is scorching, and the cold is pressing, "Boy, how long can you hold on?" Well, didn't you just smoke our brothers? Ye this is a little medicine for you, not too much, unlike you raise a large piece, let's just put it in from your neck, and your whole body is like there are ten thousand fleas biting you, so that you can't survive or die, especially if you climb into your crotch, that feeling is enjoyment! Scratch your heart with a hundred claws! After speaking, Chen Yun first took out a green porcelain bottle, the size of a snuffbox, from his backpack, opened the small wooden cork at the mouth of the bottle, and took the bottle and leaned over to the person's body.

The man obviously didn't understand Chen Yunxian, thinking that he was scaring himself, "Boy, can you use some clever means, if not, let's just make a move, you can scare the children with those two strokes." "Obviously, you don't think about Chen Yunxian's threat.

Chen Yunxian is a ruthless master, he poured the gray medicine noodles in the small porcelain bottle into the man's neck, "Boy, this time I will see if you recruit or not, the master has his own way to make you open your mouth, enjoy it." ”

Luo Shuangchen sat up, he had never seen such a forced confession trick, he took the "Divine Crossbow" in the person's package in his hand, and played with it repeatedly, "How many crossbow arrows are there here?" Two for you to try? I kowtow big brother, why are you so eyesore? Why should people harm others when they do other people's business? ”

The man was very strong, and he did not say a word, but closed his eyes.

After a while, the man's shoulders shook back and forth, and his bound arms moved, and he gritted his teeth, and pain came at him.

Chen Yunxian laughed while fiddling with a small white porcelain bottle in his hand back and forth, "Boy, you have enjoyed it too much, you can't stand it, you can ask Ye for the antidote, if you can bear it, the master will give this antidote in a while, I will only give you half an hour of effort, you stand up!" You look at it! ”

The man's features were shifting, his pain was unusual, his whole body was constantly moving in his chair, and he knew that it was worse than death.

Luo Shuangchen asked, "Yun Xian, what kind of medicinal powder is this?" Has such a great medicinal power? ”

Chen Yunxian smiled and said: "Brother, do you know, among the people in the rivers and lakes we walk, there will always be such and such dangers, this kind of medicinal powder is exclusively prepared by me, called 'heart devouring powder', this medicinal powder is fine and tasteless, sprinkled on people's skin, it will penetrate into the sweat glands, making people feel extremely itchy, scratching the heart with a hundred claws, no matter if he is a big man, or an iron warrior, it is useless, you think about a person with hundreds of fleas biting him, what is it like?" Brother, don't worry, this kid won't be able to carry it for long. ”

As the two were talking, the man was obviously too uncomfortable, his whole body was shaking, and he began to wail: "Master, give me the antidote, I can't stand it!" I'll recruit, I'll recruit both, or I'll be killed, I can't stand it! ”

Chen Yunxian didn't give up, "Don't mind, can't you carry it?" Play for a while, see how long you can carry it, and fall into the hands of my master, no one needs to be punished, no one can carry it. ”

The man's voice trembled, "Master, please, I'll say it, you ask." ”

Chen Yun said first: "No, the antidote will not be given, and my eldest brother will ask you what to do in a while, what do you say." After you answer a question, I will pour a little antidote into your mouth, and my eldest brother will be satisfied, if you are not satisfied, I will pour some more 'heart eater' from that green bottle on you, what to do. ”

The man trembled, his eyes widened, and blood poured into his pupils.

Luo Shuangchen wiped his leather shoes with gloves and asked casually: "Boy, let me ask you the first question, was Lu Shikun's eldest brother stabbed by you?" ”

The man said in a frightened manner: "Master, uncle, I'll tell you the truth, you want to let me go and let me fly away, okay?" ”

Chen Yunxian was obviously impatient, "Where is the nonsense?" Say it! ”

The man said, "Five days ago in the afternoon, I assassinated the boss with a crossbow arrow. ”

Luo Shuangchen asked, "Does he have a grudge against you?" Why are you so ruthless? Did you do it yourself? Or is someone directing you? ”

The man swallowed his saliva and said, "I never knew who he was before, I was originally from Andong, my name was Pu Buchang, and in the past few years, I have been pouring smoke from Kannai to the northeast. Half a year ago, after I arrived in Xinjing, I found a long-term customer and asked him to give me a place to hide, and he hid me here. Five days ago, he came to me and said that he would give me a total of eight yellow croakers, four in advance and four afterwards, and gave me a crossbow and a photo, the crossbow was an assassination tool, and the photo was to let me identify that person, saying that he had shot the boss in the dark in the evening, and told me that the tips of the crossbow arrows were quenched with venom, and I had to be ruthless to ensure that the person could not come back to life. ”

Luo Shuangchen asked again: "Who is the customer who gave you the gold bar?" What does it do? ”

Pu Buchang glared at Chen Yunxian, "You are giving some antidote, I've said so much, please." ”

Chen Yun wanted to laugh first, but he couldn't help it, and he poured the antidote into the man's mouth.

Luo Shuangchen continued to ask: "Tell me, who is that patron?" Is this basement his? ”

Pu Buchang opened his mouth and said, "Can you give me some water?" ”

Chen Yun saw that there was an aluminum kettle next to the bed, so he picked it up and shook it, feeling that it was a little water, so he poured the spout into the man's mouth a few times, the man almost choked, he said with relief: "Every time I come to Xinjing, I meet at the Yamato Hotel of Manchurian Railway, and later, I feel that it is not safe there, so he placed me here, this customer is introduced by my friend in Shanhaiguan, I don't know my name, and I have never seen my face, I always wear the blue flower face of Dou Erdun in Peking Opera, so I asked him to call him 'Dao Ye'." ”

Luo Shuangchen was very puzzled, "When was the last time you met?" That is, after you assassinated Lu Shikun, have you met again? ”

Pu Buchang looked at Chen Yunxian, and Chen Yunxian poured some antidote into his mouth.

"We met the day before yesterday by the river Ethong, and each time he pressed a note under the organ of the chapel above, and wrote what he wanted me to do, and I just did it. The day before yesterday, he asked me to hand over to him the black leather bag that I had snatched from the hand surnamed Lu that day, and in order to protect myself, I said that only if he gave me the rest of the gold bars, and I left safely, I could hand it over to him, for fear that he would kill me. ”

Luo Shuangchen felt that the story in this was getting more and more complicated, "That is to say, after you assassinated Lu Shikun, you hid this black leather bag, and you haven't handed it over to that 'sword master' so far?" ”

Pu Buchang said: "This knife master is very mysterious, his hands are black and ruthless, I hid this black leather bag in a very secret place, he couldn't find it, and I know that the things in this bag are very important to him, so when he didn't get the black leather bag, I was safe, he couldn't do anything to me, I said that I had completed the task, let him cash the remaining gold bars, he said that the surname Lu is not dead for the time being, and asked me to wait for him, I said, if you want a black leather bag, add ten yellow croaker, he agreed, I am listening to his news." ”

Chen Yunxian laughed angrily, "You kid don't find a safer place, if he kills you here, what more yellow croaker do you want?" ”

"The more dangerous the place, the safer it is." He couldn't find the black bag, and he didn't dare to kill me. I'm not afraid, that black leather bag is too important to him. ”

Luo Shuangchen was very calm, "Do you have an antidote to the poison on this crossbow arrow?" If you have an antidote, give it to me, and I won't treat you badly. ”

Pu Buchang said: "I have a little bit in my bag, and when I was fiddling with the crossbow arrow that day, my finger was punctured, so I asked the knife master for some, if you want it, you can take it, you don't need to be paid." Assassinate your kowtow brother, I was also forced. I just ask you to let me go, leave me with my life, I must fly away, no longer step into the northeast half a step, that knife master, you have to guard against it, he is very energetic, every time I bring a big cigarette to Xinjing, he basically does not bargain, and collects all the orders. He and your kowtow brother seem to have a deep grudge, I have no intention of intervening in this vendetta circle, and I have nothing to do with it, give me the antidote, I can't stand it, it's too uncomfortable. Then, I'll take you to the black bag, but you have to keep me safe. As for the knife master, I can't help you too much, I only know that he is about fifty years old, and he often wears an emerald wrench on the thumb of his right hand, and I don't know anything else, and I know that the boss of Nalu, who has a grudge against the head of the big tobacco seller in the Xinjing area, will definitely not be a bad person, although I am in the business of selling big tobacco, and I am also a bad person, but I still have a conscience after all, so I deliberately missed it when I assassinated him with a crossbow, and life and death depend on his creation, and that's all I know. ”

Luo Shuangchen was very satisfied, he found a white paper bag from the man's package, opened it and saw that it was red powder, "Is this the antidote to the poison on the crossbow arrow?" ”

Pu Bu nodded, "That's it, I only have so much, I heard that person say that this poison is called 'Seven Flowers Linglong'." Give that crossbow to this little brother too, I want this thing only to leave nightmares. ”

Chen Yun put away the crossbow first, looked at Luo Shuangchen and said, "Brother, what should I do next?" ”

Luo Shuangchen said: "Without further ado, give him the four gold bars in the package, let's let him take it to find the black leather bag, and then put him on the train and let him leave Xinjing." Give him all the antidotes. ”

Chen Yun first adapted and said, "Boss, the little one has to be ordered." Then he said to the man, "Boy, if you know the times, I will give you the antidote, and you take me to find the black leather bag." Remember, you're not allowed to slip, my kung fu and craft are not vegetarians. With that, he poured some more of the antidote from the small white bottle into the man's mouth, and then fed him some water.

Pu Buchang nodded again and again, obviously this "heart-eating powder" tortured him enough, and his whole body was soaked.

When cleaning up the things in the room, Chen Yunxian did not forget to open the big wooden boxes and look for something useful, except for some bottles and cans, there was nothing, but Luo Shuangchen was careful, he found that the outer corners of these wooden boxes were printed with black ink with the words "Full Iron-しょくりょう", which was the meaning of "Full Iron-Grain", and he remembered it in his heart.

At that time, it was already more than two o'clock in the morning, and the night was deep.

Luo Shuangchen and Chen Yun carried the Pu Buchang up from the basement to the ground first. Chen Yunxian and Pu Buchang walked in front, Luo Shuangchen followed, the footsteps of the three were not very loud, but there was a sound of "---" in this chapel, just when Chen Yunxian opened the heavy wooden door, Pu Buchang just walked to the door, he heard two sounds of "swishing ----", and the thin Pu Buchang of "plop ---" fell to the ground on his back.

Chen Yunxian shouted: "Big brother, lie down, someone has released a dark arrow!" ”
