Chapter 8 Chasing the Murderer

"Young Palace Master, as expected, these people are indeed united by Jiang Cheng, and all of them are people who have a grudge against my Star Moon Palace.

However, they didn't know who did the slaughter of the town before, Jiang Cheng directly informed them of the layout in advance by letter, and they had about the same time as we arrived in the town. ”

After Yuexi finished the news of the torture, she stood quietly aside and did not express her opinion.

"Young Palace Master, if Jiang Cheng wants to complete this layout, he must always monitor your whereabouts, so that he can know the time when you arrive in this town and arrange in advance, so how does he keep monitoring you?"

Wang Yunchen's eyes rolled around the people of Xingyue Palace, and suddenly said, "Are you missing someone?"

Jiang Ji's eyes swept away: "The little loach is gone?"

Yuexi immediately exclaimed, "Okay, he must have betrayed us and betrayed our whereabouts to Jiang Cheng." ”

"Probably not. ”

Facing Yuexi's incomprehensible gaze, Jiang Ji said: "Not to mention that the little loach grew up in the Xingyue Palace since he was a child, and since this journey, he has not left my side for half a step, how can he inform Jiang Cheng of our location? ”

Yuexi pouted: "Then why is he missing now? Isn't he a thief, so he ran away? With his martial arts, who could have taken him away silently in that situation just now? He must have left on his own initiative." ”

Jiang Ji didn't know how to answer for a while, he didn't notice how the little loach left just now, and what Yuexi said made sense.

Seeing Jiang Ji's brows tightened, Yuexi sighed in her heart and tried to change the topic: "Young Palace Master, what should we do next?"

Jiang Ji wanted to find the little loach first, but there was no clue, and he didn't have a clue, and he couldn't run blindly, so he said: "Wang Yunchen, you take those two live mouths to the nearest county town to report to the official, and send someone to spread the word about what Jiang Cheng has done." ”

"Yes, Young Palace Master. ”

Jiang Cheng has been pretending to be a benevolent hero before, accumulating a lot of contacts and making a lot of friends.

And once this matter is publicized, and it is wanted by the government, it will be enough to make most of the people who are not very close to him defect.

Even those who have a good relationship are inevitably a little suspicious.

This is a trick to draw salary.

"Also, if you find out any news about Jiang Cheng, send someone to inform me immediately. ”

"Yes, Young Palace Master. ”

Jiang Ji said again: "As for us, we still go directly to Southern Shaolin according to the original plan, I don't know if those monks will shelter Jiang Cheng?

These questions are difficult for these people around them to answer, and Jiang Ji didn't expect them to answer.

At this time, Wang Yunchen suddenly said: "Young palace master, I have a clue about the murderer of the people, I don't know if you want to know?"

Jiang Ji rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Say it." ”

"When I entered the town just now, I found that not only were there no people in the town, but also no poultry and livestock, and the only ones who could do this kind of thing were the murderers.

So as long as you find the traces left by those poultry and livestock, you will naturally be able to find the murderers. ”

Wang Yunchen's face was quite excited, and he looked at Jiang Ji with some expectation.

Jiang Ji nodded first, and then said: "It's indeed a good way, but now it's dark and blind, and it's really difficult to find traces, so it's better to wait for us to rest for a night and go to them tomorrow." ”

"Everything is under the orders of the young master. ”

The group came to the edge of the town, which was some distance from the corpses, which made people feel a little relieved.

Anyway, now it's all empty, and they can live wherever they want.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, the sky was slightly bright, and the group of Xingyue Palace separated from Wang Yunchen.

The group of Xingyue Palace followed the footprints, blood and other clues left by poultry and livestock, and began to track the murderer.

Then Jiang Ji and the others found that the direction in which these murderers left was the same as the direction they originally intended to take.

The group pursued along the clues at a very fast speed, and when it was almost noon, Jiang Ji finally caught up with the murderer.

Hundreds of riders, all of them in black clothes and black armor, are the eighteen riders of Black Cloud.

"Young Palace Master, they really betrayed the Star Moon Palace, what should we do now?"

Jiang Ji's tone was cold: "Naturally, it is to clean up the portal!" but they all have horses, and this place is relatively empty, it is easy for them to escape, follow them first, and wait until they have a suitable terrain before moving." ”

Because he was chasing the murderer, Jiang Ji gave up the sedan chair.

And the people of Xingyue Palace and his party are basically not bad at martial arts, so even if they get a little closer, the people of the Black Cloud Eighteen Riders will not be able to find it at all.

A quarter of an hour later, Black Cloud Eighteen rode into a section of the canyon where there were mountain peaks to the left.

And Jiang Ji and the others immediately realized that the opportunity had come.

Jiang Ji let out a long roar, and the rolling sound waves spread out with the internal force, and then echoed between the canyons.

Suddenly, many domestic animals and poultry were frightened and began to run around and rampage.

The formation of the Black Cloud Rider was disrupted all of a sudden.

Jiang Ji no longer concealed his figure, jumped out, and swooped down from the mountain peak on one side, one after another fingers like stars, like meteor showers falling.

Suddenly, figures fell from their horses.

"What kind of rat generation, you dare to sneak attack my Black Cloud Ride!"

A loud shout rang out, dispelling the panic in the hearts of many Black Cloud Riders.

"Open your dog's eyes and see clearly, see who this son is? Yan Feixiong, you are so big and daring, you dare to betray the Star Moon Palace, and you also joined forces with Jiang Cheng to design it for me.

You don't quickly kneel down to confess your guilt, otherwise you know the temper of the palace master, and some of you may be able to escape with your life, but your family is still in the Stars Mountain. ”

The Star Moon Palace is located in the Star Mountain, and after the Black Cloud Eighteen Riders were subdued, they were arranged on the periphery of the Star Mountain.

Together with some other affiliated forces, they developed a small town not far from the Stars Mountain, where many people took root and made families.

Jiang Ji's appearance, many of them had seen it, and many of them immediately panicked.

Most of them didn't know what they were slaughtering the town for last night, just carrying out Yan Feixiong's orders.

At this time, when I saw Jiang Ji and listened to what he said, I immediately realized that they had made a mistake, so I really dismounted and knelt on the ground to accept the guilt.

"Damn it!"

Yan Feixiong's face was ugly, most of these Black Cloud Riders were recruited after being subdued by the Star Moon Palace, the authority of the Star Moon Palace was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so it was not surprising that such a situation would occur.

So even if he has an antipathy, he doesn't dare to say it, otherwise many people won't follow him at all.

"Now there is only one way, and that is to kill the young palace master and force them to stand on my side. ”

Yan Feixiong's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he rode towards Jiang Ji!
