The front yard had become a sea of fire, and Lin Xi didn't even think about rushing to the backyard.

"Lin Xi, Lin Xi!" Xi Jingyao tried her best to catch up, but she still couldn't catch up.

Lin Xi stopped suddenly.

This place is the back hall of Xijiazhuang.

The fire hasn't burned here yet. Compared to the blazing sky in the front yard, it was unusually quiet.

Everyone rushed out and joined Lin Xi, but Lin Xi found that something was wrong.

"What about life extension?"

Guanyin exclaimed: "She was the first to rush out when she heard the voice!" I thought ......"

Lin Xi's heart tightened: "It's broken-"

Yun Cang and Yun Qi took a step late, they all seemed to have suffered a lot of injuries, and they fell to the ground as soon as they ran to Lin Xi's side.

"Brother Lin! I saw... Tang Zhen and a man in black came here with a longevity girl...... We didn't stop ......."

In the dark night, the two had fallen silently on the back hall, and Yanshou's neck was pinched from behind by a man in black, who could break her neck at any time.

"Lin Xi—"

"Extend your life! You ......"

"I advise you not to come!" Tang Zhen said coldly, "It's really unexpected, the ending of five years of Ganju is completely fruitless." ”

Under the black robe, a shrill female voice rang out: "It's not nothing, at least - we can kill a tricky enemy." ”

Xi Jingyao was eager to save people, and even jumped into the back hall first, and fought with the man in black.

Xi Jingyao thinks that her sword skills are rarely opponents, and this is indeed the case, in addition to the top masters in the rivers and lakes, Xi Jingyao's knife skills should be more than enough to win whoever fights.

In just three or four moves, Xi Jingyao picked out the black scarf that the man in black covered his face.

Suddenly, Xi Jingyao's expression became extremely frightened, she exclaimed, but she didn't want to be caught by the man in black, so she kicked the knife in her hand and choked her neck.

Lin Xi looked at the black-clothed man behind Xi Jingyao in surprise, and wondered at that exclamation.

"Lin Xi doesn't move, everyone retreats!" Tang Zhen shouted.

He said naturally all the people below.

Everyone took ten steps back, but Lin Xi took a step forward.

"Stop!" The man in black screamed, and his right hand made a gesture to break Xi Jingyao's neck.

"I'm just taking a step forward, why are I so nervous?"

The man in black said, "You're too dangerous, it's better to stand there!" ”

"Okay, I'm standing here, can you tell me, what are you two going to do?"

"We--want you to die!"

Lin Xi snorted lightly: "You want me to die?" Is it just the two of you? ”

"Of course - no!"

As soon as the words fell, they had just been injured and fell to the ground, and the Yuncang Yunqi brothers, who had not retreated with everyone, suddenly jumped up, and slammed into Lin Xi's back with one right and one left.

Everyone was shocked.

"Lin Xi!"

Tang Xiao, who is often slow to react, was the first to shout this time, she pushed her sister Tang Yao away, rushed out like an arrow with her strength, jumped past the two of them, and blocked behind Lin Xi.

Lin Xi only felt a cool breeze sweeping behind him, and then some warm things sprayed on his back, and when he turned around, Tang Xiao's body was planted in his arms.

"Tang Xiao!"

"Sister!"

Tang Xiao used his body to block two palms for Lin Xi.

The clouds and clouds were stunned.

It was this stunned effort that Lin Xi's sword was already unsheathed, cutting off both their heads.

The man in black was shocked, and his hands were full of luck to kill Yanshou and Xi Jingyao.

"Mrs. Xi!"

The movement of the man in black visibly stopped.

At this time, a white shadow flew to the roof of the back hall, knocked the man in black off the roof with one palm, and confronted Tang Zhen with a sword, and quickly withdrew with the two girls.

"Yebai, are you alright-"

Ling Yebai stroked the painful tiger's mouth, she was a little powerless after only fighting Tang Zhen with a sword: "It's okay, he's really a little powerful." ”

"Take care of Tang Xiao—"

"She... She's ......," Xi Jingyao shouted tremblingly.

"Tang Liu?!" The man in black fell from the back hall, and his hood was blown off, revealing his familiar face.

"Hmph, stupid woman, stupid enough to block people's knives-"

Don't think about it, she must be talking about Tang Xiao.

Lin Xi forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "You are the eyeliner arranged by Tang Zhen next to Xi Yaohui, and you are nominally Xi Yaohui's wife." ”

Tang Liu was a little strange: "How do you know this?" ”

"Although I don't know what Mrs. Xi looks like, Xi Jingyao does. I just thought it was strange how Xi Jingyao could suddenly scream - because she saw your face, and you were her sister-in-law, she would be surprised and thus caught by you. ”

"You're really still you, it's really troublesome to deal with you, and you can't be distracted at all."

"Yun Cang and Yun Qi are your people? Didn't they come to investigate the massacre? ”

Tang Liujian smiled: "Hehe, investigate the Tucun case? Do you let them check themselves? ”

"What?" Lin Xi was taken aback, but he immediately understood what was going on: "The four of you are the four remaining leaders of the village slaughter case?" ”

"That's right--the person who really investigated the village slaughter case has already died at the hands of Yun Cang."

"Xie Yujing?"

"That's right. He killed the goddess Xie Yujing in Chijiakou, because it was almost dawn, he was not good at quietly disposing of the body, so he stayed at the scene, and waited for the boss to find the body at dawn, and then he disguised himself as a catcher to investigate the case and took Xie Yujing's body, but he actually collided with you when he left.

He flew a pigeon and passed the book to me, so I asked him to lure you to Xijiazhuang, intending to attack and kill you at night...... But I didn't expect to be harmed by this stupid woman......"

"You...... Try scolding again! ”

Tang Liu didn't care about Lin Xi, who was already angry, and continued: "No wonder this stupid woman is willing to block the knife for you, does she like you?" ”

The furious Lin Xi punched like a tiger roaring dragon, Tang Liu dodged and dodged, Lin Xi smashed the wall of the back hall with a punch, smashing the entire back hall to the ground and trembling.

Tang Zhen also jumped down from the back hall, Lin Xi suddenly came, nine swords in an instant, and the last move split Tang Liu's long sword. Tang Liu was not in a hurry, and when Lin Xi and Tang Zhen were fighting, he suddenly pulled out a slender green vine willow leaf whip with more than four feet in his sleeve.

Ling Yebai raised his sword to block, he didn't want the long whip to be as long as four zhang, and it was a green vine formation, and it was difficult to cut it under Ling Yebai's sword, and he was slapped in the face by the long whip that was wrapped around half a circle.

Zhou Baiyu pulled his bow and arrows, and the three arrows fired in a volley, Tang Yun rushed to the right, bypassed the long whip, and rushed straight towards Tang Liu.

Tang Liu's long whip was rolled, and the three arrows were all caught by the long whip. Then Tang Liu retreated to the rear and whipped Tang Yun. Because of his preparation, Tang Yun was able to catch Tang Liu's whip, but he was still far away.

Lin Xi and Tang Zhen attacked and defended, and the fight was inseparable, suddenly Lin Xi felt a cool breeze hit the back of his head, leaned over and kicked himself out, and at this time, the long whip had immediately hit Tang Zhen's face.

"Bell-" The long whip made Tang Zhen's sword buzz, Tang Liu was shocked, and Lin Xi had already arrived in front of her.

"Phew"

"Uhh

With a tearing sound of flesh and clothing, Tang Liu even fell out with a whip.

Before Lin Xi's sword pierced into his body, Tang Liu dodged it, otherwise, Lin Xi's sword would split himself in half.

Tang Zhen held the sword in one hand, grabbed Tang Liu in the other, and said, "Goodbye, this Xijiazhuang is our twelfth major case." ”

The flames finally burned to the back hall, and Lin Xi realized that the entire Xijiazhuang was silent, only the sound of crackling fire.

"All the people were killed by you?"

Tang Zhen ignored Lin Xi and jumped out of Xijiazhuang from the back wall.

"Let's go!" At this time, everyone was surrounded by fire, and Lin Xi didn't have time to think about it, so he fled from Xijiazhuang with everyone first.

"Xiao Mei, Xiao Mei ......"

In the familiar shouts, Tang Xiao opened his eyes and saw Lin Xi's concerned eyes, as if he was relieved, grinned and smiled happily.

"You... It's okay......"

"I'm sorry, I'm useless, not only can't I protect you... I want you to protect me......"

Tang Xiao shook his head: "No...... You're the one who does great things, and you're going to look forward...... Someone has to do it for you...... Looking behind ......"

Lin Xi trembled and comforted: "Okay, don't talk yet, I'll take you to heal your injuries and take you to ...... immediately."

Tang Xiao closed her eyes and reached out to grab Lin Xi: "No need... Can I still not know about my injuries...... I want to talk to you... Say a word...... Come here, okay......"

Lin Xi put it to Tang Xiao's ear and listened to Tang Xiao's words with tears.

Lin Xi hugged Tang Xiao, and no one heard what the two of them said.

"Me ......too," Lin Xi muttered in Tang Xiao's ear.

Tang Xiao smiled, her hand completely hanging down in the smile.

She died, died in a smile.

Lin Xi didn't cry, he didn't get angry--he still held the dead Tang Xiao in his arms, whispering as if she was still alive.

It wasn't until Tang Yao shook Lin Xi that he realized that Tang Xiao's body was already cold.

Tang Yao comforted Lin Xi and said, "Lin Xi, don't be like this, you still have a long way to go." ”

Lin Xi reluctantly let go of Tang Xiao.

"Lin Xi......" Tang Yao took Tang Xiao's body and shouted softly.

"If there's anything, tell me about it......"

"I want to ...... Send her home. ”

"I understand...... There you go. ”

"Hmm...... Thank you for taking care of you all the way, and when you get to Sichuan, I will write you a letter......"

Lin Xi laughed miserably: "No need... It is not certain whether the letter will be delivered to me. ”

Tang Yao said: "The flowers have a reblooming day, and we will see each other again...... Right? ”

"...... right"

The hibiscus flowers on the riverbank are still blooming, but some withered yellow mugwort has emerged from the flowers.

The moonlight shining on the lonely ruins makes people feel even more sad and helpless.

Soon there was no more than the sound of fire, and the night sky was silent again, except for the cries of three or two crows, hovering in the night sky.
