"Then, I'm afraid that box has something to do with Qu Fengzhi's secret mission."

Chang An said

Zhao nodded slowly

"It should be, but I can't confirm it yet."

Zhuang Zhiyu listened, but was a little puzzled

"In that case, why don't you take it down and see what's inside?"

Zhao shook his head slowly with a smile, looked at Zhuang Zhiyu, but did not speak.

Zhuang Zhiyu was curious and continued to ask, but was interrupted by Chang An.

"Because if the box is taken down in full view of everyone, then, first, the city lord's mansion will become the target of public criticism, and second, before knowing whether this is a trap set by the murderer, it is not appropriate to act rashly."

Zhao slowly looked at Chang An, his eyes full of admiration

"Chang Daxia is indeed extremely smart."

Chang An laughed

"Miss Zhao is too modest. It's just that, next, Chang can do something for Miss Zhao. ”

Zhao slowly thought about it and said

"Originally, I invited Chang Daxia to come, I wanted to use Chang Daxia's prestige to deter those Jianghu people, but now that such a change has happened, Xiaomei wants to invite Chang Daxia to find out the truth for the City Lord's Mansion. Of course, afterwards, he naturally will not treat Chang Daxia badly. ”

Chang An coughed twice

"I'm really interested, but I have a request."

"Chang Daxia, please speak."

"I want to ask the City Lord's Mansion for ten arrows."

Zhao was slowly stunned, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked a little embarrassed.

Chang An looked at Zhao slowly

"Is there a problem?"

Zhao slowly struggled for a long time

"I need to discuss this matter with my father."

Just then, there was a commotion outside the door

"Get out of here!"

"Guest officer, you are discouraged."

"Fart! No matter how verbose it is, Lao Tzu will slaughter you together! ”

"Get out of here!"

Then, there was a push and shove.

"Ouch, guest officer, don't be impulsive."

The man's voice was followed by a violent knock on the door.

"Wow!"

The door of Chang'an's house was kicked open.

More than a dozen men in armor rushed in, with grief and indignation on their faces, staring at Zhao Huan, who was so frightened by the momentum of those people that he took a step back.

"What are you going to do!"

Then, she exclaimed

"Stinky, you dare to come here, brothers, slaughter this stinky, and avenge the Great Commander!"

More than a dozen men behind him were also menacing.

"Kill her!"

"Kill her!"

……

As he spoke, he had to do it.

Outside the door, the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper ran in

"Guest officer, don't be impulsive, this is the daughter of the city lord of Zhao, there is something to discuss, don't hurt the harmony."

The man at the head of the group opened his eyes in anger and kicked the two of them away with a single kick

"Get out!"

But listening to the house, Chang An said lightly

"Guys, what's going on?"

When the man at the head heard this, he found that in the house, in addition to Zhao Huan, there were also a man and a woman, but he saw Chang An sitting on the bed, with gauze wrapped in his chest, and red blood stains could be faintly seen.

"It's none of your business!"

He scolded coldly.

"Ahem!"

Chang An coughed again, causing Zhuang Sleeve Yu beside him to look worried.

"In Chang'an, Qingzhou, you are the tenant here, this Miss Zhao is the guest below, if you want to kill my guest, of course you have to take care of it."

The man in charge was stunned for a moment, his face changed, and he hugged his fists

"Pang Chong, the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army, didn't know that Chang Daxia was also here, and there were many offenses."

More than a dozen armored men behind him looked at each other, obviously, they didn't expect Chang An to appear here

"It turned out to be his ......"

They whispered quietly, and they were always here, but they hesitated a little.

Pang Chong said

"Chang Daxia, Pang Chong respects you as a hero, your face, Pang Chong will naturally give it, but this woman is suspected of killing the commander of the forbidden army, and we must avenge the commander."

Chang An didn't answer him, but asked again

"You've been here today?"

Pang Chong was stunned for a moment, obviously stopped by Chang An's brainless question, and after a while, he nodded

"Yes, why did Chang Daxia ask this."

Chang An smiled and said

"It's nothing, the conflict between Miss Zhao and your Grand Commander yesterday, Chang Mou knows, it's just that you said that Miss Zhao killed your Grand Commander, what evidence do you have."

Pang Chong was furious

"What evidence do you need, yesterday Fu Rushui just died, this girl rushed in with soldiers, obviously this girl designed to frame the commander of my family, and then she saw that the frame could not be done, so she secretly killed the commander at night."

Chang An shook his head and said

"Then why did Miss Zhao frame your Great Commander, she has no grievances with your Great Commander."

Pang Chong didn't think about it, so he said

"For the treasure, of course."

Chang An coughed again, and meditated in his heart: Sure enough, these people don't know.

He looked at Zhao slowly and said in his mouth

"Oh! Then Miss Zhao, did you rob that treasure? ”

As he spoke, he slowly glanced at Zhao.

Seeing this, Zhao slowly blinked mischievously, then shook his head resolutely at Pang Chong and the others, raised his hand, and swore

"I, Zhao Slowly, swear to the sky in front of everyone present today that if I, Zhao Slowly, kill Commander Qu and rob the treasures, I will be told to fight five thunderbolts in the sky, and I will not die well!"

Seeing Zhao slowly swear a poisonous oath, Pang Chong's face softened a little, but the killing intent was still undiminished.

"Of course she won't admit it!"

Chang An said

"All you think about is to avenge your Lordship. In this way, Chang Mou will find out this matter for you, this Miss Zhao has already sworn a poisonous oath, and please look at Chang's face and give Miss Zhao a chance to prove her innocence. ”

Pang Chong's face was thoughtful, and after the conversation just now, he had calmed down at this time

"Since Chang Daxia said so, Pang Chong naturally wants to give you this face, but I can't wait until I am the emperor, so I can't wait all the time. Three days, three days is the limit, I hope that Chang Daxia will give an explanation to our brothers within three days, otherwise, we can only use the life of this stinky girl to pay for the life of the commander. ”

Chang An nodded

"Well, I'll give you an answer in three days."

Pang Chong arched his hand, then retreated with his brother, and before leaving, he glared at Zhao slowly viciously.

After they left, Zhao slowly closed the door again

"Thank you Chang Daxia for helping my little sister out of the siege."

Zhao slowly turned around and came to the side of the bed and saluted Chang An.

Chang An waved his hand

"Miss Zhao is polite, you saved my life, I naturally can't watch you die in front of my eyes."

"What are Chang Daxia going to do next?"

Zhao smiled slowly

Chang An thought for a moment

"I want to see the corpses of Qu Fengzhi and Fu Rushui first."

Zhao nodded slowly

"The master's body has been sent to Yizhuang in the south of the city, and as for Commander Qu, his subordinates are not allowed to move, so they are still in the inn."

Chang An said

"Okay, Xiaoyu, help me up, let's go see Commander Qu first."

Zhuang Zhiyu was worried about his body and said

"Sir, you'd better rest for a day."

Zhao said slowly

"yes, it's not too late to see tomorrow."

Chang An's face was already a little ruddy, and although the wound was still faintly painful, he felt that he had some strength

"It's okay, I'm much better."

The two couldn't resist him, so they had to take him downstairs.

Zhao slowly led the two to the backyard of the inn

"In order not to affect the business of the inn, the shopkeeper specially vacated the backyard to store the corpses."

The backyard was empty, except for a thick pile of haystacks stored in the western corner.

Next to the haystack, Qu Fengzhi's body was quietly laid out on a wooden cart.

I saw that the corpse was naked, and it was completely cut off from the neck.

The incision was extremely flat, and it was evident that the head had been cut off with an extremely sharp weapon.

On the chest of the corpse, there was a wound almost the size of half a bowl, which ran through the back, and the outer edge of the wound, the dried blood, was evenly spread around, but it was not at all like a sharp weapon.

In addition to this wound, which was obviously fatal, Qu Fengzhi's entire chest was covered with staggered knife wounds.

In addition, there were two scars that attracted Chang An's attention, those two scars were new injuries that had not healed, and the injuries were thick and short, as if they had been caused by hidden weapons.

Zhuang Zhiyu snorted lightly and covered his eyes with his hands, but he could clearly see that the green jade fingers that were covering his eyes were trembling slightly.

Chang An flipped the body over again, and there were still staggered scars on his back, but compared to his chest, it was much less.

Chang An looked at the corpse carefully, and then let out a sigh.

"How?"

Zhao asked slowly with concern

Chang An shook his head

"It's hard to say right now, but the case is getting more and more interesting."

At this moment, Chang An's ears trembled slightly

"Tread"

The sound of the soft landing did not escape his ears.

Chang An's face was cold, and the person who came was very good, if it weren't for his excellent ear, he would definitely not be able to find that person

"What people!"

Chang An turned around and cleared

Zhuang Sleeve Yu and Zhao slowly heard this, turned around in surprise, but saw a black-clothed and masked person, who was standing in the backyard at some point, and they didn't even notice it.

"It's you!"

Zhuang Zhiyu pointed at the man in black, shocked and angry.

This is the assassin who attacked the two of them on the side of the official road today.

"What are you doing here?"

Zhuang Zhiyu raised the longbow in his hand and blocked in front of Chang An, looking at the man in black vigilantly.

saw that the man in black looked calm, and looked at Zhuang Sleeve Yu with extreme disdain

"Chang'an, we'll meet again."

The voice of the man in black was still so immature

Chang An smiled bitterly, he suffered a big loss under this kid today, and now he has not recovered from his serious injuries, but he has a narrow road.

"You're really haunted."

The man in black laughed loudly when he saw the thick gauze on Chang An's chest

"Hahahaha, I was deceived by you earlier, and you were really injured, this time, see how you escaped from my Five Finger Mountain!"

The figure of the man in black jumped up, his light skills were excellent, and before the person landed, a flying knife had already been thrown out of his hand

"Whoosh!"

The suffocating sound of breaking the air echoed in the ears of Chang An and the three of them, and the flying knife was extremely fast.

"Behind me."

Chang An suddenly grabbed the two and threw them behind him, but when he saw the flying knife shoot at Chang An's front door, he was stopped in front of him.

"Bell!"

The knife seemed to hit a wall and fell heavily to the ground.

"Poof!"

Outside Chang An's body, the looming wall of internal strength seemed to be about to burst at any time, and he himself was spurting out a mouthful of blood, the old wound had not healed, and he used internal force to force it, obviously involving the wound again.

The man in black narrowed his eyes slightly

"Hmph, it's worthy of being a grandmaster, it's really difficult to deal with, it's already injured like this, and it can still block my flying knife."

But he then sneered

"I'll see how long you can last."

"Wow!"

A bright and dazzling light, Zhuang Zhiyu and Zhao slowly couldn't open their eyes.

The man in black drew a thin thin sword from his waist

"I will, but it's not just a secret weapon."

The thin sword was like a poisonous snake staring at Chang'an, winding forward, with scales flashing on its body,

Chang An didn't care about the blood-colored flowers that had spread on his chest, and forcibly urged his internal strength.

The wall of internal strength that flickered outside his body gradually solidified, but his face became more and more pale.

The man in black sneered

"Suffer death!"

"Click!"

The thin sword easily pierced Chang An's external qi wall, and Chang An clearly saw that the sword body of the thin sword was also made of dark iron.

Chang An smiled bitterly, where can this still be stopped, if he is in his heyday at the moment, he can naturally easily avoid this sword, but at this time, he is already unavoidable, and he is dead.

"Bell!"

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred, and a cold arrow actually hit the thin sword of the man in black, and Shengsheng knocked the thin sword to the ground, and the hand of the man in black was numb from the shock, and he looked around with jealousy

"Who!"

Chang An was awakened by that sound, and also looked around, but saw that on the wall of the courtyard, a figure stood on a high place, holding a longbow, and the arrow was naturally shot by him.

The man in black looked at the man with a solemn expression and did not speak, but he saw that his thin sword made of dark iron was easily shot down by a cold arrow.

"Who is Your Excellency, and why are you fighting against the Twelfth Floor?"

"Uncle Chu!"

Zhao slowly poked his head out from behind Chang An, looked at the figure, and shouted in surprise.

The black-clothed man's face changed, knowing that it was reinforcements, his eyes flickered, and he knew that he was invincible.

"Chang'an, your luck is indeed good, I hope you can be so lucky every time."

The man in black put down a cruel word, jumped to a high place, glanced at the figure, and showed murderous intent on his face.

Unexpectedly, the figure was not afraid, slowly picked up the bow, and aimed at the man in black again.

The man in black stared for a moment, didn't say a word, and flew away, only to see his figure constantly jumping from side to side between the buildings, ghostly and unpredictable, trying to escape from the figure's lock.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow feathers are off the string and travel straight forward at a high speed.

"Ugh!"

With a muffled sound, the arrow was dozens of feet away, and it hit the man in black directly, but it didn't hit the vital point, and after the man in black was hit by the arrow, the speed still did not decrease, and after a few breaths, he disappeared between the buildings.

"Uncle Chu!"

Zhao slowly and excitedly ran to the wall where the figure was, the figure looked at Zhao slowly lovingly, jumped off the high wall, gently stroked Zhao Slowly's head, and said dotingly

"You, running around, your father can't rest assured, ask me to come and see you."

The figure finally revealed its true face at this time, it was a middle-aged man with a Chinese face, tall and straight, not very burly, but the muscles on the two arms, full of strength, still made people feel that this was a very powerful person.

Chang An slowly stepped forward and bowed deeply to the man surnamed Chu

"Thank you seniors for saving me."

Zhao slowly reacted and introduced to Chang An

"Chang Daxia, this is the archery master in my house, Uncle Chu of Chu Muhe."

She looked at Chu Muhe again

"This is what I often mention to you, the big hero Chang An Chang hero."

Chu Muhe looked surprised when he heard Zhao Yan's words

"Oh! It turned out to be the head of the Chang family, and it was really a young hero. ”

Chang An laughed

"Senior Chu has won the award, but I didn't expect that in the City Lord's Mansion, there is still a master of archery like you."

Zhao slowly took Chu Muhe's arm and looked at Chang An with a proud expression

"Chang Daxia, although you are one of the Seven Grandmasters, my Uncle Chu is also very powerful, he was already a first-class master at the Kuofu level ten years ago."

Chu Muhe scolded with a smile

"In front of the master of the Chang family, my three-legged cat kung fu can't be on the stage."

Chang An was solemn

"There are definitely a lot of masters at the Kuofu level on the rivers and lakes, but archery masters at the Kuofu level are too rare. With the hand of Chu seniors to defeat the enemy with an arrow dozens of zhang away, he is already alone in the world. ”

Chu Muhe smiled slightly and waved his hand

"Okay, okay, we don't have to praise each other, the old man still has something important to go home, slowly, do you go back with me, or ......"

As he spoke, Chu Muhe's eyes drifted to Chang An, and Zhao slowly turned red, unable to hide his shyness

"Uncle Chu!"

The expression is cute.

Chu Muhe laughed

"Okay, okay, I'll go first, Master Chang, take care of my young lady."

Chang An laughed

"Obey your own commands."

As he spoke, Chu Muhe's figure had already jumped high and disappeared between the buildings.

Chang An looked at Chu Muhe's back with a solemn face, and said to himself: Light skills are not bad, when did the rivers and lakes have such a number one person, but he is unknown.
