Chapter 121: Mysterious Killer
Ping An Winery. The winery is small, but it is packed with people. A small winery, with a hundred miles of fragrance, is the reputation that the world has given to this small winery. Ye Ningxiang is in this winery at the moment, not because she loves to drink, but because the food in this winery is good and cheap.
When I left, I was in a hurry, and I only brought some silver taels with me, and if I wanted to go to Rui to start a new life again, I had to save and save on the way.
Ye Ningxiang ordered a hot Yangchun somen noodles and stuffed it into her mouth in a big gulp, for fear that the person she didn't want to remember would pop out uncontrollably in her mind after a slight pause.
These days she has been tired of two horses, and the whole person is also haggard because of the day and night, she wants to leave the country as quickly as possible, she is afraid that if she walks slowly, she will not be able to help but remember what happened in the country, and the people she met in the country will not be able to bear to leave.
After leaving Ping'an Winery and walking all the way south for half a day, it will probably reach Yeqi County, and then it will be possible to reach the boundary of Rui Kingdom in less than two days, thinking that all these grievances are about to end, Ye Ningxiang sighed, her nose was uncontrollably red and sour, and then she relied on the pressure of the food in her mouth to endure the tears in her eyes without shedding.
"Pig, do you know that there is a big case in Jing'an City!" a skinny monkey-looking man said mysteriously to a meaty guy beside him.
"Skinny monkey, how many times have you said it, don't call me a pig!" Hearing the skinny monkey's disrespectful title, the meaty ball with a face-to-face dissatisfied.
As if he hadn't heard Meatball's complaints, the skinny monkey continued to tell his story in fascination.
"The night before yesterday, eight people died in Jing'an City for no reason, these eight people, tsk, the one who died is a miserable one!" said the thin monkey while pouting.
"I also know what you said, this has spread in our departure from the country, and these people who were killed have each been sucked dry of essence, and their faces are more terrible than dry corpses!"
The middle-aged man sitting at the next table with a bald forehead was intrigued by this terrifying and exciting topic, and rushed to interject.
"There is a watchman in the east of Jing'an, who has been fighting in the east of the city for decades, and he has not escaped death this time, it is really miserable!"
Ye Ningxiang, who was sitting not far from them, was attracted by this terrifying topic, there was another homicide in Jing'an, and listening to what they said, it seemed that this murder was very blatant, not only that, but eight people died in a row.
She Ye Ningxiang also knew about this bizarre murder before, so when she heard the murderer act more unscrupulously again, a wave of indignation ignited in her heart, and she was very eager to personally catch the murderer of the living beings and bring him to justice.
But after thinking about it, she dispelled this idea, and said that she wanted to leave the place of right and wrong, and said that she would no longer have anything to do with the people and things that left the country, even if something big happened in Jing'an, even if Mu Jingyuan personally came forward with a knife to force her to go back, she would never go back.
In order to calm her churning heart again, Ye Ningxiang hurriedly settled the account, stepped on the fast horse, and drove all the way to the south.
Since Ye Ningxiang ran away from home, Daddy Ye has been in a hurry and can't afford to get sick, and the only thing Mu Xize has done in the past two days is to stay in the house to help take care of the seriously ill Daddy Ye, and by the way, he also shows the filial piety of his new son-in-law.
It was not because he had forgotten about Ye Ningxiang that he had forgotten about Ye Ningxiang in just two days, but because everything about Ye Ningxiang was already under his control. He knew where she was, where she was resting, where she was going, and even what she ate at every meal.
He cares about her and loves her, but it's all his own business, just like Ye Ningxiang said, he shouldn't impose his thoughts on her, so although he knows everything, he didn't try to find her back, and it was enough for him to see her from a distance.
It's almost the 100,000 Flower Festival in early May, and the weather is getting warmer this year, but it's early summer, and the air is already a little stuffy. Xu is affected by the weather, in the past two days, Ye Liu and Ye Ninglu have been like two fried chickens, looking for other people's unhappiness everywhere, and unabashedly putting on a posture of a brutal master.
Mu Xize saw it in his eyes, but he didn't want to say anything more to Ye Ningxiang's mother's family, on the one hand, he was a little sympathetic to Father Ye, who had lived with these two mothers and daughters for so many years, and on the other hand, he was also upset because of these two disgusting women.
Daddy Ye had just taken the medicine and fell asleep, and Ye Liu and Ye Ninglu, accompanied by their maidservant Fluttershy, went out of the mansion to visit the market, and King Ning's mansion returned to a peaceful scene. Mu Xize stood alone on the Taolan Pavilion, looking at the scenery of the mansion, but it was more like thinking about things.
Standing on the Taolan Pavilion, you can have a panoramic view of the entire palace, and it is inevitable to think of people related to these scenes, such as Ye Ningxiang, and her identity Su Huang before she was reborn.
Unconsciously, Mu Xize fell into deep thought, from Su Huang thinking of Ye Ningxiang, from when he and Su Huang just met thirteen years ago, to Ye Ningxiang in this life who rejected him ruthlessly with a cold face, the memories of him and her surged uncontrollably in his mind, her joys, sorrows, and sorrows, her smile, everything about her became clearer and clearer, and even made him unable to distinguish between illusory and reality.
This almost unreal contemplation was finally broken by a shout. Gu Liancheng rushed directly to Mu Xize very presumptuously, and deliberately shouted loudly: "Son, Liancheng has something important to report." ”
Hearing Gu Liancheng's shouts of sudden incoming, Mu Xize snorted uncontrollably, but pretended to be calm and asked calmly, "Liancheng, do you want to talk about Xiao Yezi?"
Hearing Ye Ningxiang, Gu Liancheng's heart was very dissatisfied, since Ye Ningxiang left, Mu Xize was either drunk and fell asleep for three days, or mentioned Ye Ningxiang when he saw him, and the three words Xiao Yezi were about to grind out cocoons in his ears in the past two or three days.
However, Gu Liancheng still stabilized his emotions first, and replied respectfully: "It's not the princess, it's about the tragic murder in Jing'an two days ago." ”
This murder Mu Xize had previously instructed Gu Liancheng to ask him to investigate, but he just said it, but he didn't take it to heart, at this moment Gu Liancheng suddenly mentioned it, Mu Xize was a little curious in his heart, but he also faintly felt that this matter did not seem to be simple.
"But what's the clue?"
Gu Liancheng's face was embarrassed, and he hesitated for a while before saying: "I sent someone to investigate, these dead people died in a special way, it seems that they were not done by humans, so I mobilized the shadow guards of the whole city to try to find some clues about the murderer." Yesterday I sent two Shadow Guards to track down a mysterious figure, but this morning I found the bodies of these two Shadow Guards, who had died in the same way as the deceased. ”
"You're saying this mysterious figure is the murderer. ”
"Eight or nine is not far from ten. ”
"Who's that man?"
"My subordinates have investigated, and that person often goes in and out of Yipinju, and it seems that Mo Xiaoqin, a piano girl in the same pinju, is good friends, and the subordinates of Yipinju call that person Mr. Mo. ”
Mu Xize tasted Gu Liancheng's words, and he had already guessed Gu Liancheng's special intentions in his heart, Gu Liancheng knew his true identity, and deliberately proposed in front of him that the mysterious person may also have power beyond mortals, which means that he wanted Mu Xize to come forward in person to meet this mysterious person who would kill the two of them quietly.
Knowing Gu Liancheng's true thoughts, Mu Xize stopped going around in circles, smiled and even said with a little ridicule: "Liancheng, what is the relationship between the two of us, how can you talk to me and all these twists and turns, just let me come forward and say it directly!"
Hearing Mu Xize say his Gu Liancheng's inner thoughts so bluntly, Gu Liancheng was a little embarrassed to come, and he spoke a little hesitantly, "Bi ...... After all, it was a matter of risking his life, how could his subordinates dare to let Gongzi come forward?"
"Hypocrisy, hypocrisy!" After saying this with a smile, Mu Xize's face suddenly became serious, "In the end, this person must be caught, so many lives cannot be sacrificed in vain." ”
Yipinju.
Mo Xiaoqin has been in a state of panic since she escaped death last time, no longer stroking the qin, no longer eating, no longer talking to others, and even her father Mo Lao's father's tongue-worn-out persuasion could not make her change a bit.
She waited for three whole days, and finally the person she had so long wanted to see came. Rumo was dressed in black, and there seemed to be a little sadness in her cold eyes.
"Why should you have trouble with your own body?"
The moment she saw Rumo, Mo Xiaoqin seemed to be suddenly pouring out the emotions that had been blocked these days, and she cried loudly, Rumo had never seen a girl cry so badly, and her already tormented heart was even more entangled and depressed.
He walked up to Mo Xiaoqin gently, wiped her tears with a slightly warm hand, and then gently hugged her into his arms.
"Xiaoqin, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, I won't hurt you in this life. ”
"Rumo, I know that the person who was there that night was you, promise me, don't hurt people anymore, okay?" Mo Xiaoqin looked at Rumo affectionately with a pair of teary eyes, and her eyes were filled with strong longing.
She doesn't care what Rumo has done in the past, she only cares that Rumo is now the man she likes, and the man she likes shouldn't be stuck in the quagmire and can't extricate herself, even if she is in the quagmire now, she has to pull him out of the quagmire through her efforts.
Hearing this, Rumo's eyes flashed with a strong color of resentment, and the whole person took several steps back to avoid Mo Xiaoqin's embrace.
"I'm sorry, I can't do it, killing people is the only purpose of my existence in this world. Rumo's words revealed a strong hatred, as if he was carrying some revenge mission.
As soon as Rumo finished saying this, Mo Xiaoqin stepped forward and hugged his waist tightly, pressed her cheek tightly against Rumo's neck, and her words were full of deep love, "You and me, I should be your only purpose in this world." You should think it's for me, don't hurt people anymore, okay?"
"You know what kind of person I am, don't you regret pestering me like this?" Rumo said with a cold demeanor.
"No, I don't regret it. Mo Xiaoqin said as she buried her head deep in his neck.
Rumo stopped talking, and let her hug him tightly behind him, crying close to his neck. He is an alien who crawled out of hell, killing people is the only thing he should do in his life, but he has always killed people like numbness, but he lost his mind and moved his heart after grabbing Mo Xiaoqin's neck that night.
This stupid girl had to go to the orphans in the middle of the night to deliver medicine to the orphans in the miscellaneous courtyard, which almost made him regret it. Rumo closed his eyes and sighed softly, wondering in his heart what kind of magic power this innocent and stupid girl could disturb his mind like this, and even shake him to turn his back on his mission to survive!
"Rumo, I'm hungry, I want to eat roasted sweet potatoes. ”
I don't know how long it took, Mo Xiaoqin opened her mouth again, and her words were as docile as a cute little sheep, which made people feel pity when they heard it.
"Okay, I'll buy it. ”
Rumo smiled lightly and walked towards the outside of Yipinju.
