XXVIII. Whisper
The room was silent, and everyone's faces were churning with emotion, surprise, joy, and worry.
Seven Stars opened the toolbox and asked, "Where's your lantern?"
Wei Dongjia was stunned, he really wanted to change his lantern, but now he was not worried at all, and he changed it casually.
Wei Dongjia took the lantern, and Qixing reached out to take it, looking at it.
"I've just arrived." She said.
This was able to speak, and the three people in the room spoke almost simultaneously, "What's wrong?" "Are you alright?" "Who is it?"
Seven Stars invites everyone to sit down, sit down themselves, and take out the ink fountain from the toolbox.
"I came back from Meng Xia's house that day and encountered an ambush outside the capital." She whispered as she measured the line.
She told the three of them what happened at that time, concealed that she went to find Huo Lian, and only said that she fled to a place to hide and heal.
Although the description is simple, the three of them can understand how dangerous it was to be attacked at that time, especially the shopkeeper Lu and Wei Dongjia, who originally didn't know that Seven Stars would know kung fu.
It's just a thin and weak girl, and when she rescued the Rolling Earth Dragon, she thought she was just helping from the side, but after listening to Meng Xichang's description, she knew that the Seven Stars would do kung fu.
Although Meng Xichang guessed earlier, he was also shocked.
"That's the Bamboo Sanlian brothers." He said, "There are famous killers in the rivers and lakes, and no one can survive under them."
Miss Seven Stars actually escaped from the three of them, and also cut off the hand of one of them.
At this moment, thinking of the bloodstains infiltrating underground, Meng Xichang had a deeper feeling.
"Brother Takesanlian?" Wei Dongjia and Shopkeeper Lu didn't know about these things on the rivers and lakes, after all, they were just craftsmen, "Is that because they have a grudge against Miss Seven Stars, or are others buying murder?"
Qixing shook his head: "I don't know the Zhu Sanlian brothers."
That's buying murder.
"It's not easy to ask for a bamboo triple." Meng Xichang said, "Who is it?"
Seven Stars put the ink fountain down and picked up the chisel.
"It should be from the Momen." She said.
Really! The three people who were seated stood up again and asked in an angry whisper, "Who is it?"
Seven Stars shook his head, "I don't know the exact person."
Shopkeeper Lu asked softly, "Is there an enmity with you?"
They had guessed before that Qixing never said his origin, obviously hiding his identity, with such skills at a young age, his background must be unusual, and he may also have unusual grievances and hatreds.
With a creaking sound, Wei Dong's lantern was dismantled, and Qixing put down the chisel, as if thinking about what to say.
"It's about the boss." She said.
Master? The three people in the room were slightly shocked.
"There is no secret to the matter of King Jin back then." Qixing said, "I was by the side of the head at the time, and I heard that the head of the house had an argument with someone, and the dispute was that he colluded with the king of Jin to harm Momen."
By the boss's side?
Wei Dongjia and Shopkeeper Lu stared at each other, and Meng Xichang also looked surprised, ignoring what she was talking about for a while.
"Miss Seven Stars, do you know the master?" Shopkeeper Lu couldn't help but ask.
Qixing looked at the carving knife in his hand and nodded, "Yes."
"You were also in Jindi at the time?" Wei Dongjia even asked, "Just by the side of the master?"
Seven Stars nodded again.
"But I wasn't in good health." She said, "I woke up and fell asleep, I heard the argument, but I didn't see anyone, and then I felt a little noisy, so I fell asleep, and when I woke up again, it was messy."
Her face was still calm as she said this, but the three of them could hear a hint of remorse in her voice. new
Meng Xichang said, "Miss Qixing, you are not in good health, and it is not easy to survive the rebellion in Jindi."
This girl's kung fu is indeed tall, and thin is indeed thin.
It's not easy for her to survive at such a young age and do so many things.
Wei Dongjia and Shopkeeper Lu also looked pity, and also
It's a child.
Qixing then said, "So I don't know who was arguing with the head of the sect at that time, and I don't know whether this person is dead or alive, I only know that the head of the sect did not rebel, and there are other people who are in trouble with Momen."
She said this and looked at the three of them.
"And the rebellion of the King of Jin can be suppressed in time, also because the head of the family has turned the tide, otherwise the court soldiers and horses would not have time to stop it."
It's like this, there is such a secret.
The three people in the room were surging for a while, and their thoughts were chaotic.
"It turns out that I've been wronged." Wei Dongjia only muttered and repeated this sentence in the end.
Qixing said it before, and he also believed it, but it was only based on his trust in the first saint Momen, in fact, he had always been dissatisfied with the master, and it was the head who dragged the Momen into the abyss.
If the head of the family is not guilty and is a small troublemaker, then finding out the real culprit of Xiaoxiao can clear the sin of Momen.
"No wonder you want to be the head, you have to be the head!" He shouted even more.
Shopkeeper Lu hurriedly booed him and signaled to be quieter.
Although Wei Dongjia stopped his voice, he couldn't help but walk around with a wheeled car.
"So you know the secrets of the matter at that time, and the other party also knows you." Meng Xichang asked in a low voice, "Now that they have found you, they want to get rid of you."
Seven Stars nodded, "It should be so, although not many people know about me, someone will definitely recognize me."
The three people in the room glanced at each other, and their eyes fell on the masks placed on the table.
"That's why you have to cover your face, Miss." Shopkeeper Lu said.
Meng Xichang also stood up: "There are those people here!"
"So those who were driven away were the ones with the problem?" Wei Dongjia asked.
Qixing nodded and shook his head, "I'm not sure if there are those people, but I didn't drive them away because they had a problem, but because they had a problem here."
Got a problem here? The three people in the room were stunned again.
......
......
It was the middle of the night, and even the birds and insects in the wilderness had fallen into a deep sleep.
Shredded footsteps passed, making the sound of a search.
"Master, Master." A voice shouted, "Let's find a place to rest."
The footsteps in front of him suddenly became heavy, and at the same time, a cold snort sounded: "What to rest, my Golden Dragon Dance is willing to gamble and lose and leave."
After losing to Qixing, hearing that sentence, Jin Longwu sneered, and sure enough, he packed his bags and left quietly when he went back.
The little apprentice was carrying his luggage behind his back and cautiously advised, "It's already considered to be left, just a few steps away."
"Not a few steps." Jin Long Wu said angrily, "A little girl, I don't lose if I lose!"
After that, he quickened his pace and rampage through the night.
The little apprentice reluctantly trotted and followed, "Master, slow down, it's too dark, don't stumble—Yi."
At this point, he sighed.
"Up ahead, there's someone."
How could there be people on the wilderness road in the middle of the night? Is it a ghost or a human? The Golden Dragon Dance, who was hurrying with his head down, was startled.
"Are you dazzled?" He shouted angrily.
The little apprentice had already grabbed his arm and shook it, "Master, it's true, it's still an officer and soldier."
Soldiers? Jin Longwu raised his head in a daze, and sure enough, he saw a little fire in front of him, and the firelight surrounded the figures, although he couldn't see the appearance clearly, but he could see that they were wearing military robes, and they all had weapons draped.
How can there be officers and soldiers in such a place?
This is not a city, nor is it an important fortress.
"Could it be that you are sleeping in the middle of the night?" The little apprentice said, he had to take a step forward to see clearly.
This is also a very common thing.
This is a very common thing, but at this moment, I saw it outside Bailou Town--Jin Longwu grabbed the little apprentice and lowered his voice: "There is a problem."
