Chapter 258: The Ancient Temple
Hearing the word inner ghost, Kou Zhong's originally relaxed expression on his face converged, and he looked at Song Xing with some seriousness, he originally thought that Song Xing would take him out, but it was because he said in Baiyun Temple that he wanted to make a career before, so he let him experience more.
"Xiaoling, don't talk nonsense, with Master's prestige in Laojunguan, how can anyone dare to do such a thing?"
Song Xing raised his hand to stop Kou Zhong, and showed an approving look at Xu Ziling: "Why do you say that?" ”
Xu Ziling hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, "Master, you are so young, although your martial arts are world-renowned, but the demons... It is inevitable that there will be people in the Holy Gate who will not accept it, and even if they don't say it, it will definitely be uncomfortable to see Master in their hearts that you are pressing on everyone's heads. ”
Kou Zhong nodded thoughtfully: "That's right, when we were in the Bamboo Flower Gang, we were also senior, just because Xiaoling and I are newcomers, although we have the best stealing skills, but we are often bullied." ”
Xu Ziling ignored Kou Zhong and continued: "The timing of the death of Zuo Youxian and the others is too coincidental, not long after they left Laojunguan, they all died, I believe that this is for you, Master." ”
"The mastermind behind the scenes, maybe he is hiding in the shadows at this moment, spying on Master's reaction, if Lao Junguan can't find out the real murderer with the momentum of thunder, he will inevitably become a laughing stock in the rivers and lakes, let alone unify the Holy Gate."
"The real murderer?" Kou Zhong was stunned, "Isn't the murderer Heavenly Sword Song Que?" ”
Song Xing shook his head: "Song Que is not a murderer, this is someone who is to blame and deliberately guide the direction of our investigation, the purpose may be to confront me and Song Que." ”
Kou Zhong was puzzled: "Master, why did you judge that Song Que was not a murderer, and the clues to the knife that killed Zuo Youxian all pointed to the Song family." ”
Song Xing explained: "It was the knife on Zuo Youxian's body that made me judge that it was not Song Que who killed him, next to Zuo Youxian's corpse, a slight footprint appeared next to his left foot. ”
Kou Zhong's spirit was shocked: "Could it be the murderer's footprints?" ”
Song Xing said with a smile: "Don't think that they eat dry rice, if it is the murderer's footprints, how can he not see it." It was Zuo Youxian's own footprints, but there was a slightly shallower footprint underneath that footprint, slightly skewed, and covered by another footprint. ”
Kou Zhong blinked: "What does this mean?" ”
"It shows that Zuo Youxian resisted before he died, and in the face of a move to kill him, he even had time to make a change of move, although he still died in the end, but he did not die under the murderer's first knife."
Song Xing said leisurely: "If it is me to kill Zuo Youxian, one move is enough!" ”
Xu Ziling's eyes lit up: "Master, what do you mean, Song Que is also a great master of the Dao of the Dao, if he really has the intention to kill Zuo Youxian, he also only needs one move." ”
Song Xing nodded: "The children can be taught." ”
Kou Zhong also reacted: "Master, you deliberately pretended not to see it, just to confuse them?" ”
"Not bad."
"Master, since you think that some of the three of them are internal ghosts, why do you want to leave Lao Junguan?"
"If I don't leave, how can I give the people behind the scenes a chance to make ghosts, and if they don't dare to make a move, how can they find people out."
After Song Xing finished speaking, he said to himself: "Among the three, who do you think is most likely to be an inner ghost?" ”
"Naturally, it's dust," Kou Zhong hurriedly said: "Don't forget, he was the first to say that Zuo Youxian died under Song Que's knife technique." ”
Xu Ziling did not agree with the good brother's statement, "The news of the contact between the Song family and Wagangzhai was provided by Du Jiangyin, and he was also suspicious, although Liu Qingshan seemed to be clear for Song Que, but it may not be that he did the opposite, speaking of which, these three people are all suspicious." ”
"Yes or no, when the time comes, it will naturally jump out," Song Xing laughed, turned his head and asked Kou Zhong: "If Wagangzhai really has a heavenly sword in charge, are you afraid?" ”
Kou Zhong looked ahead and said proudly: "Let's wait for me Zhong Shao to wipe the long knife, and I will be heroic in the world for a while, ha, haha, hahaha!" ”
After Kou Zhong finished speaking, he turned his head and saw the strange eyes of Song Xing and Xu Ziling, and said with a sneer: "Isn't it because of the presence of the master, so I just skinned it, haha." ”
The green trees are thick and the summer days are long, and the buildings are reflected in the pond.
When it comes to the beginning of summer, everything is luxuriant, and there is still a bit of summer scene, the first second is still the sun shining, and the next second the thunderstorm is coming.
In the pouring rain, three horseback figures rushed out of the rain curtain and rushed forward along the road, and the gallop of horses' hooves trampling the rain was very messy.
"The weather on this dog day, just say it, Master, I heard from the villagers that there seems to be a deserted temple in front, let's go in and take shelter from the rain."
The horse galloped to the front, it was the three of Song Xing's master and apprentice, Kou Zhong reached out to touch the rain on his face, turned his head and shouted loudly.
The three of them left Luoyang and came all the way to Wagangzhai, but when they approached Anyang, they did not prevent the sky from changing abruptly, dark clouds covered the sky and the sun, and the torrential rain poured down on their heads.
Hearing Kou Zhong's shout, Song Xing bowed slightly, and the three of them turned their horses' heads and ran towards a ruined temple next to the road.
The peaks and peaks are undulating, the mountain wind is cold, the dilapidated mountain temple is leaking everywhere, the rain is pouring down in the dark night, and Ding Dong smashes on the roof, like a demon with teeth and claws wailing around the broken temple.
When the three of them came to the outside of the temple, they found that under the only intact eaves in front of the temple, a gorgeous carriage had been parked, and more than a dozen tall horses were tied to the stone pillars next to them, which were curled up in the rain and were silent.
Song Xing sat on the horse, swept his eyes, and said to Kou Zhong and the others in a deep voice, "Be careful." ”
Kou Zhong Xu Ziling followed Song Xing's gaze, and at the same time, his heart froze, and between the dark bluestone slabs, a touch of bright red rain spread along the cracks in the stones towards the outside of the temple.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling glanced at each other, and hurriedly dismounted after Song Xing.
The temple door was close, and looking through the broken windows, the temple was pitch black, with no lights or voices.
The night was dark, and the entire mountain temple was like a beast crouching in the dark, with its dark mouth open, waiting for outsiders to step into it automatically.
Song Xing took a few steps forward, stepped on the rain and came to the temple gate, was silent for a few breaths, and stretched out his hand to push open the tight gate.
"Huh!"
At the moment when the door was pushed open, a long sword silently stabbed at Song Xing's ribs in the darkness.
Song Xing's eyes did not move, his right hand brushed the sword body, the long sword shook violently, but it stubbornly resisted the force of Song Xing's brush, although he deviated from the direction and brushed his body, but he did not fly out of his hand.

The man in the darkness seemed to be taken aback, adjusted the long sword in his hand with his backhand, crossed an arc diagonally, and stabbed at Song Xing again.
The sword wind is piercing, and the strength of the swordsman in the dark is beyond Song Xing's expectations, he has already stepped into the innate threshold, and if it is Kou Zhong and the others who come in, he will directly lose his life.
With a cold snort, Song Xing's right hand turned golden, and he pointed directly at the tip of the sword with increased strength, and the long sword made of stainless steel was directly shattered inch by inch under the huge force, and the swordsman in the dark snorted, staggered and fell out.
