Chapter 53: The Man Behind the Scenes

In the underground secret room of Dongyang Teahouse, the masked man held a knife in both hands, and slashed straight at Xing Zhuoyuan, who held the Pu knife with both hands and held it horizontally to block the split.

Qin Chang'an stepped forward and was about to help for a long time, but in the blink of an eye, two more people with the same outfit and weapons as him rushed over behind the man in black.

They directly attacked Xing Zhuoyuan, who couldn't spare his hand, and the two of them slashed at Xing Zhuoyuan at the same time.

Qin Chang'an and Qin Changzhi raised their knives and stepped forward to block the knives of those two, "Qiang," the blade rang out, and Xing Zhuoyuan flicked the long knife of the masked man in front of him.

He said quickly: "Deal with these people first, remember to stay alive." ”

After speaking, he took the lead in rushing forward with the knife, Xing Zhuoyuan's knife technique was light and fast, and he slashed several times in the blink of an eye.

The masked man could only parry in the face of Xing Zhuoyuan, and Qin Changan and Qin Changzhi also fought with the other two.

Sparks and clangs from the collision of knives with knives, and the men and women who were drinking and having fun were also attracted by the sound.

Seeing that these people were screaming and hiding far away with long knives and sharp weapons, the masked man had already fallen behind after more than a dozen rounds of fighting.

Xing Zhuoyuan felt that this person's sword technique did not seem to come from the sect, he did not have a fixed move, and every knife was very strong and straight.

Xing Zhuoyuan didn't want to entangle with him anymore, and the instant change in the moves in his hand would solve him.

Just as the six of them were fighting, the shopkeeper, who no one was paying attention, tiptoed his head and quietly moved towards the stone steps.

The shopkeeper glanced forward, and the few people were still playing that no one was paying attention to his movements, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then ran out like a rabbit and ran up the stone steps to the exit.

Seeing that the eyes of the shopkeeper of the wooden door were radiating the light of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, the shopkeeper pushed open the wooden door with all his might.

The light sprinkled on his face, the excitement of escape and a burst of wild running, the shopkeeper's heart beat faster, the blood rushed violently, his head was sweating profusely, and he kept panting.

He wanted to sit down and rest, but he didn't dare to think about how to escape from here.

He was about to move when a masked man in a black suit stood in front of him like a ghost.

The shopkeeper said with a frightened face: "You..." ”

As soon as he said the word, a light flashed before his eyes, and then he could no longer see.

Without words, the masked man raised his knife and directly solved the shopkeeper.

The three masked people in the underground secret room had all been defeated in the hands of Xing Zhuoyuan and a few people, and at this moment they were kneeling on the ground Xing Zhuoyuan and a few people's knives were on their necks.

And it was only at this time that they found that the shopkeeper was gone, and Qin Changan said: "The boss shopkeeper is gone." ”

Xing Zhuoyuan said: "It's okay, there are still our brothers outside, he can't run, let's take these three people first." ”

Qin Changan nodded, and just as they were about to move their steps, they heard the sound of "knock, knock, knock" from the other end of the stone steps.

It was the sound of something rolling down, and the thing rolled down and rolled to Qin Changan's feet, and several people looked at it and saw that it was a round head.

Qin Changan's face changed suddenly when he saw it, and he roared angrily: "Which bastard did it!"

Without waiting for Qin Changan to rush up the stone steps, one person had already walked down, dressed in weapons and holding a long knife in his hand as in the hands of the three masked men.

There were still drops of blood dripping from the tip of the long knife, Qin Changan raised the Pu knife, pointed at the man with the tip of the knife and said in a deep voice: "You killed the person?"

The masked man didn't speak, he stood on the stone steps and stopped, he looked at Xing Zhuoyuan and the others and said coldly: "The person is dead, and your task has been completed." ”

Xing Zhuoyuan and the three of them were confused when they heard this, and what they didn't notice was that the three masked people who were restrained by them all moved, and they seemed to have swallowed something.

But in an instant, the heads of the three masked men drooped, and Xing Zhuoyuan was shocked and said, "Not good!"

He pinched the masked man and tore off the black scarf on his face, only to see that the black-clothed man was foaming at the mouth and was no longer breathing.

Qin Chang'an and Qin Changzhi also looked at the other two, and they were also breathless, Xing Zhuoyuan suddenly understood that the words of the masked man who killed the shopkeeper were to make these three people kill themselves.

Suddenly raised his eyes, and the masked man on the stone steps turned around and ran up.

Xing Zhuoyuan said: "Chase!"

The three of them chased up the stone steps and walked out of the secret room, only to hear a "poof," and the masked man broke the window and jumped out.

Xing Zhuoyuan said: "Third child, you go after him, follow him and open the sachet, we will lead Lao Huang to find you later." ”

"Hmm," Qin Changzhi nodded, jumped out of the broken window, and chased out following the masked man's trail.

Qin Changzhi was the best person among them, and there should be no problem catching up with the masked man.

Although the sachet is a woman's thing, for them, it is the best way to find each other's whereabouts.

Lao Huang is a big yellow dog they trained, and he can follow the sachet around their waist to find anyone's position within a thousand miles.

After Qin Changzhi chased him out, Xing Zhuoyuan and Qin Changan saw the headless corpse of the shopkeeper.

"Poof," the door of the private room was pushed open, and the head catcher who was guarding the door outside walked in.

When he saw a few people inside, he said, "What's the matter with the boss?"

He rushed in when he heard the sound of a broken window outside, Xing Zhuoyuan sighed, looked at the corpse of the shopkeeper and muttered, "It seems that he knows too much." ”

Since he was killed, he didn't know who was behind him, now it depends on the man in black that Qin Changzhi is chasing, he definitely has something to do with the person behind the scenes.

Raising his head, he said to the catcher who came in: "Go and call all the catchers in the East Market, arrest all the people in the secret room below and put them in the cell, hand them over to the judge for interrogation, and bring Lao Huang here." ”

The head of the hunt gave the order to Xing Zhuoyuan and ran out of the door, Xing Zhuoyuan thought for a while and said: "Except for the workers in the store, let the other people outside let them go, seal up this place and search it inside and out." ”

Qin Changan took the order and walked out of the private room.

In the alleys of Dongshi Street, the masked man in black was running wildly on the street, and he had turned from the street into the alley several times.

This was a safe way to prevent people from following him, and he finally came to a house on Union Street.

In front of the door he looked both sides to see if anyone was following him, he was confident that the detour and the strength of his feet were enough that he believed there was no tail behind him.

So he knocked three times on the door of the house, and when it opened, he entered, and in the distance a man came out of the cornices of a house.

He looked ahead, the masked man had already walked into the house, he was Qin Changzhi, and he had already followed the masked man all the way.

He had been walking on the roof, his steps as soft as a cat without making any sound.

Out of the tea building, he had already opened a small opening of the sachet on his waist, and I believe that the boss will chase after him soon.

And now he was going to go into the house to see who the masked man was, and who had instructed him to kill someone.

One rolled over, he gently rolled down the roof, and when he landed on the ground, he took two steps to the outer wall of the house.

Leaning against the outer wall and looking up, the top of the wall was about three people high, but it was not difficult for him.

With a slight leap, he jumped up, climbed the wall with the soles of his feet and reached the top of the wall, holding the top of the wall with both hands without turning in.

He only showed two eyes and looked inside, and when he saw that there was no one in the wall, he climbed up the courtyard wall with both hands and looked to the right to see the highest position in the house.

With a light foot, he touched the highest cornice, and lay behind the cornice, looking into the house.

From here, the house was unobstructed from above, and now he was staring at the masked man to prevent him from running away.

Then, as long as he waited for Xing Zhuoyuan and them to come over and climb on the roof, he suddenly thought of what if this masked man ran away in a secret passage in the room.

Thinking about it, he decided to go down to the courtyard to take a look, and was about to move, when he suddenly saw a person in the largest room in the courtyard come out.

The man was holding a tray in his hand, which contained teacups and tea, and Qin Changzhi hurriedly lowered his head and showed his two eyes to observe.

I watched the man walk out of the room, but he didn't seem to be the masked man, a few points shorter than the masked man.

The man walked to another room with a plate and walked in, and after he closed the door, Qin Changzhi gently climbed down from the roof.

Just as the gecko didn't make a sound swimming in the wall, since someone came out with something, maybe the masked man was in that big room.

So Qin Changzhi slowly walked from the wall to the big room, and when he walked to the wall, he leaned over and stuck his ear to the wall, but he couldn't hear any sound inside.

He poked a small eye through the window paper with the fingers of his left hand, and he was going to lean his eyes to see inside.

But this glance almost made him lose his soul, only to see a cold light in his eyes, and a touch of the tip of the knife stabbed directly.

The tip of the knife stabbed straight into his eye, and if the knife stabbed him in the head, it would be pierced directly.

At the moment of life and death, Qin Changzhi's blood boiled all over his body, and his sweat hair stood up, and he dodged to the left with all his strength, although his head was not stabbed, the blade did not stop.

"Stabbing," a blade slashed his shoulder, Qin Changzhi didn't dare to stay, squatted down and rolled to the left.

"Poof," with a few loud sounds, the outer wall was directly kicked open by the people inside, Qin Changzhi stood up and pulled out a long knife with his right hand, and cold sweat flowed from his forehead.

There were already five people standing in front of him, several of whom broke through the wall of the room, all five of them were masked black and holding long knives.

They just surrounded Qin Changzhi and didn't make any other moves.

Footsteps sounded, and another person stepped out of the room, different from the five.

He was unmasked, dressed in a cyan round-necked robe, and was a large man with a jet-black iron rod in his hand.

Seeing this person, Qin Changzhi frowned and said in a deep voice: "Boss Yuan, it seems that you did this, the crime of selling *** and harming people's lives is extremely evil!"

Yuan Yulong, the eldest name of Yuan Lao, is the leader of the Fire Dragon Gang, Qin Changzhi has dealt with them, and as a gangster, he is naturally the object of great attention of their officials.

Yuan Yulong looked at Qin Changzhi and said, "Since Lord Catcher knows me, then I won't say much, my lord should stay here." ”

After speaking, he whispered to the five masked men: "Kill him!"

As soon as Yuan Yulong's words fell, the five crowds rose up to attack him, carrying a long knife and killing Qin Changzhi.
