Chapter 92: The Tragedy of Six Years Ago
That night, the owner of the tea shop, who had been busy all day, came home without eating and went straight to a dark hut.
He lit the candles, and the rows of spirit cards were like floating lamps in hell, terrifying and eerie.
This turned out to be a mourning hall dedicated to the dead!
The boss knelt on the ground and said in a choked voice: "Master, senior brothers and sisters, I am so useless, the enemy is close at hand, but I have no ability to take revenge!" ”
After saying that, he wailed and wept like a lonely ghost who had no one to take him in.
"If crying solves the problem, how beautiful the world will be."
A sigh rang out from outside the house, reaching the boss's ears with great clarity.
"Who?"
He was startled and jerked to his feet.
With a "creak", the yellowed wooden door was pushed open, and Zhong Lifei's master and apprentice walked in with their heads held high.
"Who are you?"
The boss exclaimed, and a large amount of true qi quietly condensed in his hands.
Zhong Lifei didn't seem to see his small movements, and his eyes stayed on the spirit card in the middle.
This card is engraved with the name of Lu Linfeng, the sect leader of the Shinto Sect.
"Sure enough, you are a survivor of the massacre six years ago."
Looking at the boss's face that was burned by the fire, Zhong Lifei sighed softly.
"How do you know?"
As soon as the words came out, the boss knew that he had asked a stupid question.
People have been snooping outside for a long time, and they have already seen the fame.
Zhong Li Fei said in a deep voice: "From the way you looked at Xiong Chuan during the day, I sensed that there was an unforgettable hatred between you and him. ”
"That's right, this dog thief can't get rid of the hatred in my heart even if he dies a hundred times!" The boss's eyes glistened with blood.
"Good!"
Zhong Lifei nodded and said, "Can you tell me the truth now?" ”
"Why should I tell you?"
It can be seen that the boss is very wary of these two strangers who suddenly break in.
"I am Lu Linfeng's old friend, and I came to Wuyang City this time to retrieve a thing entrusted to him for safekeeping twenty years ago."
"What's that?"
"I think you should know exactly what it is, you haven't left Wuyang City for six years, not only to take revenge, but also to fulfill Sect Master Lu's last wish."
The boss stopped talking, and his face was cloudy.
Zhong Li Fei knew that he was hesitating in his heart, and he was even more suspicious, and further explained: "The day before the tragedy, Xiong Chuan burned down the library and accidentally discovered the secret between me and Sect Master Lu, so he had evil thoughts and colluded with bandits to destroy the Shinto Sect. ”
"You, you......" The boss was surprised.
Suddenly, he became furious and shouted, "You two are the murderers who participated in the murder of my master and brother that night! ”
"Alas, how can you have such a wrong idea......"
Before he could finish his words, the boss flipped his hands over.
A cold light lit up in an instant, and the long sword formed by the condensation of true qi immediately slashed towards Zhong Lifei's neck.
Zhong Lifei ignored it and turned around to incense many undead spirits.
And Chu Fan had already raised his leg and kicked the long sword away on the spot.
Then, he approached the boss like a wind and punched him lightly.
The boss snorted in pain and was instantly knocked into the corner.
"It's just the cultivation of the Force Wheel Realm, no wonder you don't dare to seek revenge on Xiong Chuan."
Zhong Lifei saw the strength of the boss and said, "If you want to take revenge, there is no other way than to trust me." ”
Chu Fan answered: "After getting the things back, I will help you take revenge by the way, why not?" If you hesitate, I'm afraid you'll regret it for the rest of your life. ”
The boss looked uplifted and said, "Why are you willing to help me?" ”
"I am Zhong Lifei, the head of the Xuanwu Sect of Gu Shooting Country, and he is my apprentice Chu Fan."
After introducing his identity, Zhong Lifei took out a yellowed note and handed it to the boss.
On the paper was written the contents of Zhong Lifei's entrustment to Lu Linfeng to keep an ancient book, which could not be returned until he returned to Wuyang City again.
The signature of the note was signed with the names of Zhong Lifei and Lu Linfeng.
As soon as he saw the familiar handwriting, the boss burst into tears.
He knelt on the ground on the spot and said, "Under Chen Shuang, he is the ninth disciple accepted by the master, and today I finally waited for the head of Zhongli, you must administer justice for me!" ”
After saying that, he kowtowed.
"Get up, and tell me what happened that night."
Chen Shuang stood up and recounted the experience of that night, mixed with crying from time to time.
It all started when Kumagawa got drunk and burned down the library.
That fire burned all the books in the collection, and also allowed Xiong Chuan to discover the secrets hidden in the ancient books.
After this guy caught fire, he didn't want to call someone to put out the fire, but ran away, for fear of being caught red-handed.
Just as he was running away, he suddenly found a golden light in the sea of fire.
The guy knew that there was a treasure hidden in the library, and he set it on fire himself.
Driven by the desire for profit, he ran into the fire regardless of the danger and found this treasure.
After escaping the fire, Kumagawa discovers that he is holding a glittering rune in his hand.
Although he didn't know the power of the rune, seeing that it was intact in the sea of fire, this guy knew that he had picked up a powerful magic weapon.
As soon as he put the rune in his arms and hid it, Xiong Chuan didn't dare to move his legs.
Under the bleak moonlight, Lu Linfeng stood in front and looked at him coldly, and a large number of senior brothers gathered beside him.
It was already a big crime to set fire to the library pavilion, and now he wanted to steal the mysterious runes, and what Xiong Chuan did completely angered Lu Linfeng.
After taking away the runes and beating the criminals, Lu Linfeng hung him on the flagpole of the cultivation ground.
He originally wanted Xiong Chuan to reflect on his sins, but he didn't know that Xiong Chuan hated his master because of this.
This guy has a vicious heart, and in the dead of night, he struggled to break free from the rope.
After escaping, he told a group of fox friends about what happened at night.
Among these extralegal fanatics, there is an immortal cultivator with great strength.
He paused for greed, and immediately informed his helper.
This human-faced beast-hearted gang leader immediately hatched a conspiracy to exterminate humanity.
The next night, under the leadership of Kumagawa, this gang of gangsters dressed in black and covered with black scarves on their faces, killed the Shinto sect.
The sleeping Shinto Sect disciples were caught off guard by them, and there were countless casualties for a while.
In the end, Lu Linfeng was defeated by the joint attack of many gangsters, and was beaten to death vomiting blood.
The runes were scavenged, and the gang set fire to the Shinto sect in order to cover up the incriminating evidence.
They want to burn Shinto to ashes and burn all the evidence at the same time.
But these gangsters didn't expect that Chen Shuang was seriously injured that night and fell into a coma on the spot.
And Lu Linfeng, who they thought was dead, actually retained the last breath of true qi and did not die quickly.
Under the scorching heat, Chen Shuang woke up and found the dying master.
Before Lu Linfeng died, he told the ins and outs of the ancient book, and repeatedly told Chen Shuang to wait for Zhong Lifei's arrival in Wuyang City.
At this moment, Chen Shuang said with tears in his eyes: "Master said, when Zhongli is in charge, he wants me to apologize in person, and his old man is really entrusted by the old man." ”
"Alas, I didn't think it through. If he hadn't handed over the ancient book to Sect Master Lu at the beginning, there would have been no such catastrophe. Zhong Lifei's eyes moistened.
Then, he asked unusually calmly: "All the murderers were masked that night, how did you know that it was Xiong Chuan who lured the wolf into the house?" ”
"Although the thieves are masked, I heard Xiong Chuan's voice when I was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead.
When Chu Fan heard this, he couldn't help but say, "So cunning! This guy actually made a fortune in disguise as a business, and then no one doubted him when he opened a green building. ”
"In this case, we can only find the other murderers through Kumagawa."
Zhong Lifei continued: "Great, let's go to Lichun Courtyard tomorrow to drink flower wine. ”
As soon as the words fell, an evil smile appeared on his face that was very familiar to Chu Fan.
