The bodies piled up on the dock formed a small hillside, and perhaps because of some darkness, the bodies were piled up in all directions, unattended.

Li Hanning moved away the corpses one by one, and suddenly felt a little afraid that he would find him here.

She turned over for a long time, and these worlds were full of wounds, those scars and clothes were glued together, and the blood flowed down the bank into the river, staining the surrounding river red.

She found a lot of boatmen, one of whom she had said hello before, as if she said that after getting off the boat, she would return to her own place, which should be a family at home, so she was preparing tuition for her children's education.

They were not smugglers, because Li Hanning clearly remembered that they clearly had signs on them that allowed them to get off the boat, and these officers and soldiers were only ordered to seize the boat, and they didn't care whether the people on the boat were smugglers or not, and they were all killed for this crime.

But Li Hanning didn't care about these now, she was about to turn over the last corpse here, and she was relieved when she knew that it was not Chuzhou, but when she turned around, she found a purse under the corpse.

That's what Chuzhou is doing.

Originally, those who were in charge of the ship were wearing linen clothes, so Chu Zhou had this red purse on his body, which was particularly abrupt, Li Hanning also asked at that time, Chu Zhou just explained that this thing was on him before his amnesia, maybe someone will be able to find him with this in the future, he has always worn it on his body, and it is worn in a conspicuous position.

If he had been safe and sound, he would not have left this purse behind.

According to those who came and went, some of the corpses slipped down the hillside and fell into the river.

If this is the case, then Chuzhou will definitely have no chance of survival, firstly, he does not know martial arts, and his water nature is not so good, and secondly, on the bank of the river within a radius of ten miles, there are a bunch of officers and soldiers guarding here from the afternoon, no matter who falls into the river, it is easy to be discovered.

Li Hanning held the blood-stained purse tightly in her hand, no matter what, the mastermind behind this matter killed so many people, she would definitely not let go of the mastermind of this matter, no matter who the other party was.

Tonight is the pilgrimage festival, people come and go on the street, when Li Hanning was carrying the body on the bank of the river, he was stained with blood, and the clothes on his body were dark purple, and it was too late to change all the way, Li Hanning was inconvenient to walk to the main road to attract attention, fortunately, she was familiar with the road in Luoyang, and she was now preparing a path to return to the Ming Palace.

Just when he walked to a corner, he heard an unusual wind and killing intent behind him, Li Hanning immediately borrowed his strength, kicked it and leaned against the wall, and the bamboo root in his hand pointed in the direction behind him.

Just by the night and the lights reflected on the street on the side, Li Hanning could see clearly who was coming.

He stood in the cool moonlight, his back to him and he couldn't see his face clearly, but he knew by looking at his figure and skills that it was Xue Rui who she had fought on the boat before.

The cold sword in Xue Rui's hand at this moment flashed with a cold glow along with the movements in his hand.

He lifted his chin lightly, revealing his whole face, as if he was not afraid of revealing his identity, and said to Li Hanning:

"Do you have any last words to say?"

The bamboo tube in Li Hanning's hand was lightly sided, and he was a little puzzled in his heart Xue Rui had obviously gotten off the boat at that time, why did he pick this time to make a move with her, did he think that the seizure of the boat on the dock had something to do with her?

But Li Hanning obviously knew that Xiao Ce had not yet arrived in Luoyang, and the officers and soldiers on the dock were not under Xiao Ce's orders, since they were not his orders, they had nothing to do with her.

Li Hanning looked up at Xue Rui in front of him and asked, "What does General Xue mean by this?" ”

Xue Rui saw her reaction, and snorted coldly: "I gave you a chance, if you don't want to leave a last word, forget it, if you have anything you want to say, just go to the underworld and talk to the king of Hades." ”

The sword in his hand fell like a storm, Li Hanning had fought with Xue Rui's uncle when he was outside Huai'an City before, but his swordsmanship was as exquisite as his uncle. What's more, she is also suffering in weapons now, the bamboo tube in her hand can't stop the sharp weapon in Xue Rui's hand at all, Li Hanning can only fight and retreat, and the bamboo tube in her hand has been replaced by two, which can't match the sharp sword in Xue Rui's hand.

What's more, Li Hanning didn't want to talk to Xue Rui at all, there must have been some strange misunderstanding between them that was not explained, so she never had the intention of attacking, but just saw the move and dodged Xue Rui's sword move, so she was a little disadvantaged for a while.

Xue Rui also had some accidents, when he was on the boat at that time, he knew that the martial arts of the person in front of him were very high, but he was afraid of revealing his identity at that time and did not use the swordsmanship he had been practicing, and now he has almost used ten percent of his martial arts, but the person in front of him still seems to be able to deal with it easily.

Xue Rui admired her martial arts very much, in this huge Luoyang City, it was really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, but it was a pity that such exquisite martial arts were on her.

In this alley, it was a mess, Li Hanning peeled off all the bamboo tubes that were leaning against the wall on the side, and soon a piece of ash was raised, Li Hanning cured here, raised her sleeves to resist the dust, and she had time to say a few words to him.

Li Hanning asked from a distance about the size of a person:

"General Xue, is there any misunderstanding between us?"

Otherwise, he would not have made a move in Luoyang City.

"Misunderstanding?" Xue Rui seemed to hear something sarcastic, and immediately frowned: "What misunderstanding?" I saw with my own eyes in the afternoon that you took the token of Chuzhou, and it was you who killed him. ”

He can see this matter clearly, there can be no misunderstanding, he knows Chuzhou, Chuzhou has been injured before, and many things in the past can't be remembered, so his mind is simpler than others, he reminded Chuzhou when he was on the boat before, don't believe the person in front of him, Li Han must have another purpose on this ship, but now it seems that Chuzhou did not listen to his kind reminder at that time.

Xue Rui said again: "Since you know him, you should know his situation, you even deceive people like him, don't you deserve to die?" ”

In his eyes, it's a life for a life, and it's fair.

Li Hanning was silent, although she didn't know about the token, she didn't take the token from Chuzhou, but looking at the situation in the afternoon, it was indeed she who killed Chuzhou by mistake, although she was also unintentional, but sometimes there is no difference between intentional and unintentional.

Li Hanning still explained to the person in front of him: "I don't mean it, the token was indeed given to me by Chuzhou, and I didn't know until I got off the boat." ”

Xue Rui thought for a moment, but still raised the sword in his hand:

"Impossible! He's been in charge of the ship for so long, doesn't he know the rules of Luoyang City? Not having a token to get off the boat is equivalent to smuggling, which is a crime of killing the head, and he can't do it. ”

What's more, the person in front of him is just a person he has a relationship with on the ship, there is no need to do this for a person who has never known each other and whose origin is unknown, at least Xue Rui doesn't believe it.

Li Hanning asked quietly, "Then how do you believe it?" ”

Xue Rui frowned and said, "Kill you, and I'll find out the rest myself." ”

So he came again with his sword.

Of course, Li Hanning knew in her heart that it was not a way to fight like this, she and Xue Rui couldn't make sense in this matter, and now Xue Rui couldn't listen to anything because of the death of her best friend, so she had to find a way to calm him down.

When Li Hanning was about to fight back, in the hurried fight between the two people, the chic purse on his waist suddenly fell, Li Hanning frowned, this purse is very important to her, this is a relic of Chuzhou, so she stretched out her hand and bent down to pick it up, but in the next moment, the sword in Xue Rui's hand fell in front of her, and the tip of the sword was cold, almost close at hand, but Xue Rui did not stab it.

Because Xue Rui already had some suspicions in her heart, a person who was originally unscrupulous for the sake of the end, she actually died for a purse at this time?

When he saw clearly what the purse was, Xue Rui's eyes couldn't help but be stunned, because he knew that it was something on Chu Zhou's body, and he used to often see him wearing the purse in his hand.

Xue Rui paused, and asked in disbelief:

"Say, why is this thing on you?"

He couldn't have given something so important to a stranger for no reason.

Li Hanning greeted the sword in his hand and said fearlessly: "I picked it up, I went to the river at night, there was no body in Chuzhou, but I picked up his things in the crowd." ”

When she found this purse, it was equivalent to confirming Chuzhou's death.

Xue Rui suddenly felt a little upset, when he saw Li Hanning on the street just now, he chased after him with a sword, and at that time his goal was very clear, that is, to kill him and avenge Chuzhou.

But how could a person who used Chuzhou to that point go to the dock to open the pile of corpses in the dead of night, how could he find someone, and carry his purse with him, there are really too many doubts to say.

The only explanation is indeed that Chu Zhou gave her the token that could be disembarked at that time.

That idiot.

If you don't listen to persuasion, forget it, and hand over such an important thing, and lose your life in vain.

Xue Rui's gaze moved as he looked at the purse, and then slowly put down the sword in his hand, just that, since this is the person he wants to protect, he will investigate the next things clearly.

He let this person go for the time being.

Xue Rui moved his lips and said in a low voice, "You go." ”

He carried his sword behind him: "Before I can regret it." ”
