Chapter 231: Peach Blossom Tribulation (3)

A thick smell of blood filled the room.

In the tub behind the screen, the water used for bathing has been rendered pale red by the blood that is constantly dripping from the red line. A little blush wafts in the water, like a gorgeous peach blossom.

"This ...... It's ......"

Chen Yong's face was as pale as paper, and his eyes overflowed with tears full of sadness and dismay. He looked at Huichun in disbelief, interspersed with thousands of red threads, and a thousand tastes came to his heart, indescribably depressed and complicated.

"What's going on...... Ahh

Xun Qin, who came in a hurry, was frightened by the scene in front of him before he finished speaking. Abaolu and the disciples of the Six Great Sects who followed behind him were even more shocked, even a group of big men who were accustomed to seeing swords and swords, at this moment, they couldn't help but have hideous facial features, and turned their heads with frowns, not daring to look directly at the terrifying scene in the room.

"Senior sister!"

The several Emei disciples who followed were already trembling with fright at this moment, and their lips and teeth trembled. One by one, they collapsed to the ground, full of fear, and could not cry.

"How can this be? An hour ago, she appeared in front of us in front of us, how can she ...... now?"

For Liu Xunyi's incoherent muttering, Xun Qin bit his lower lip lightly, forcibly endured the reluctance in his heart, frowned slightly, slowly looked at Huichun in the room, and after observing for a while, he said with a little surprise: "Could it be that this is ...... 'Heavenly Maiden Weaving'." ”

"What is 'Celestial Maiden Weaving'?"

"The unique secret weapon of the Tang Gate in Shuzhong, the Heavenly Maiden weaves clothes. In the sixth room of the Tang Gate, one of the three major killing weapons in the hidden weapon room. Xun Qin explained, "Once this secret weapon is released, it will instantly shoot out nine hundred and ninety-nine thin lines of silver needles, piercing the human body. This kind of hidden weapon will not take people's lives instantly, but will make people go through unbearable pain, but because their eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and internal organs are all shot through, they can't make a sound, and at the same time, they can't make any movements, so they can only silently endure the terrifying torment like eighteen layers of hell, and finally their viscera fails, and their meridians are shattered and they die. ”

"Shhh

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

I have long heard that the secret weapon of the Tang Gate is powerful in the rivers and lakes, which is terrifying. Unexpectedly, in addition to being unguardable, Tangmen's secret weapon was so cruel and bloody in the way of killing.

When everyone looked at Huichun in the room again, they suddenly felt a chill behind them, followed by an indescribable chill that quietly poured out from the bottom of everyone's hearts.

"I know! This matter must be Tang Yan's grudge against Tang Gan's death, so he made this killing move against Senior Sister Huichun. Knowing that Huichun died under the secret weapon of the Tang Sect, Chen Yong couldn't help but be furious.

"But how did Huichun die?" Xu Heng asked with puzzled eyes, "We have been drinking in the courtyard, and no suspicious person has been found, the doors and windows of Huichun's room are closed, and there is no trace of being broken into, what ......is it?" Who killed her?"

Xu Heng's words made everyone confused, and secretly speculated about the cause of Huichun's death.

"Could it be ......" Tang Cong rolled his eyes, then looked at the blood-drenched room with a stiff face, and whispered faintly, "The murderer has been hiding in the room?"

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused an uproar.

Liu Xunyi frowned, then his eyes straightened, he drew his sword, held his breath, and cautiously walked into the room.

Chen Yong and Xu Heng followed cautiously with cautious eyes, their eyes were like torches, looking around, not daring to miss any corner of the room, and even the blood in the bath bucket was stirred up a few times by Liao Chuan and Liao Hai with knives.

After a careful search, except for Huichun's body in the room, no trace of the second person was found.

"Mirror!"

Xun Qin gradually adapted to the bloody scene in front of her, and mustered up the courage to enter the room, she looked suspiciously at a bronze mirror that had been turned to the ground, and suddenly found that at the lower end of the bronze mirror, there was a broken thread about three or two inches long and as thin as a hair.

"What is this?" asked Liu Xunyi as he stepped forward.

"I know how Huichun died. Xun Qin pinched the broken thread lightly with his fingers, and said lightly, "She killed herself by herself." ”

"What?"

"In fact, someone has already arranged a hidden weapon in the room, and connected the trigger mechanism to the copper mirror through a thin wire. Xun Qin's eyes flashed, and he analyzed unhurriedly, "Huichun inadvertently picked up the bronze mirror, and then pulled the thin thread, triggering the 'Heavenly Maiden Weaving' arranged in advance, and thousands of needles and threads instantly passed through the body, hanging his body in mid-air, and finally died. And this bronze mirror fell to the ground from Huichun's hand at that time. ”

"In this way, the mechanism of the 'Heavenly Maiden Weaving'...... Isn't it still in the room?" Xu Zhun said in surprise.

"Nope. The hidden weapons made by the Tang Sect, in order to avoid being imitated, have always left no traces. The same is true of the 'Celestial Maiden's Weaving', which is originally a mass of finely arranged silver needles and threads, which, once released, will be gone. ”

After that, Xun Qin pointed to the red threads crisscrossing the room and sneered: "They are the organs of the 'Heavenly Maiden Weaving'. ”

Hearing this, Liu Xunyi thought for a moment and muttered: "If someone really planted a secret weapon in the room in advance, then the person who killed Huichun may not be a disciple of the Tang Sect...... Because the disciples of the Tang Sect came to Taohuawu with us this morning, and then Tang Cheng and the others first visited Senior Ye in the Peach Blossom Forest, and then were settled in the West Cross Courtyard by the Colorful Butterfly Girl. From the beginning to the end, they didn't have a chance to come to the East Cross Courtyard, so how could they lay a secret weapon in Huichun's room?"

"That makes sense. Xun Qin echoed, "Even if the disciples of the Tang Sect have been to Taohuawu before today. It is impossible to know in advance which room Huichun will live in after coming here, and how can he accurately lay down a secret weapon to kill Huichun, who has a grudge against the Tang Sect?"

"Which room are we staying in, it was temporarily arranged by the girl in the afternoon......" As for this, Liu Xunyi's eyes suddenly changed, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "Could it be...... Butterfly girl?"

Thinking about it this way, Miss Caidie is indeed the one who knows that Huichun and Tang Qian have a grudge, and has the time and ability to arrange all this. Tang Cong hesitated, "But...... She has no grievances with Huichun, why did she do this?"

"There is another question, since Miss Caidie is the apprentice of Senior Ye, how can she have a secret weapon of the Tang Sect?" Xu Zhunhu said suspiciously.

"The bell must be tied to the bell!"

Chen Yong saw that everyone was talking to no avail, so he waved his big hand, followed by a little step, flew downstairs, and walked towards the courtyard with his sword.

"Brother Chen, where are you going?" Liu Xunyi, who was caught off guard, suddenly changed his face and asked urgently.

"Instead of guessing here, it's better to go to Senior Ye and Tang Cheng to ask for an understanding!"

"Brother Chen, go slowly, I'll go with you!"

Liu Xunyi shouted, and then hurriedly instructed Xun Qin and Xu Heng to deal with Huichun's aftermath first, and appease the disciples of various factions, and discuss everything when they come back.

Then Liu Xunyi stepped on the railing, flew up, and several somersaults in mid-air, and the person had already flown out of the East Cross Courtyard and chased after Chen Yong.

Under the bright moonlight, Liu Xunyi and Chen Yong, who looked complicated, first went to the middle courtyard to look for Ye Tong and Caidie, but unexpectedly they searched back and forth in front of Taohuawu, but they never found any trace of Ye Tong's master and apprentice.

The two of them, who gradually realized that something was wrong, came to the West Cross Courtyard quickly. Before stepping into the courtyard gate, Chen Yong's roar was like a thunderbolt in the sky, and it sounded loudly: "Where is Tang Yan? Get out of here quickly!"

Before the words fell, Chen Yong had already drawn his sword out of the sheath, he completely ignored Liu Xunyi's obstruction, and rushed into the Xikuan courtyard quickly, shouting without saying anything: "Tang Cheng, you ......"

At this point, it came to an abrupt end. Chen Yong strangely discovered that the West Cross Courtyard, which was supposed to be inhabited by the disciples of the four great families, was actually blind in the dark at this moment, and it was silent.

"It's ...... What's going on?"

Liu Xunyi, who was chasing after him in a hurry, was also startled by the situation in front of him, he looked around in a daze, the courtyard in the west cross was silent, and every side room was pitch black, and there was no trace of the disciples of the four great families.

"Jin Jianwu and the people of the four great families were obviously settled in the West Cross Courtyard by the Caidie Girl. In the afternoon, I saw people coming in and out, why is it here...... Can't even see a ghost?" Chen Yong carried his sword, looked at everything in the courtyard suspiciously, and muttered to himself, "Sure enough, there are ghosts ......"

"What does Brother Chen mean by this?"

"Brother Liu might as well think about it, if Tang Cheng didn't kill Senior Sister Huichun, why did the disciples of the four great families have to hide?" Chen Yong speculated.

Liu Xunyi frowned and asked rhetorically, "What do you mean...... They teamed up to kill Hye-chun, and then deliberately hid it?"

"Eighty percent of it was Tang Cheng who bought Caidie and murdered Senior Sister Huichun together. I can't think of a second reason for this explanation at the moment. ”

"It's on fire!"

Suddenly, there was a lot of noise in the direction of the East Cross Courtyard, and a flash of fire appeared.

The fire was so fierce that it almost filled half of the night sky in the blink of an eye. At the same time, bursts of noisy and messy shouts also faintly reached the ears of Liu Xunyi and Chen Yong.

The sudden change surprised Liu Xunyi and Chen Yong at the same time, and a puzzled look flashed in their eyes.

"It's not quite right!" Liu Xunyi said urgently, "How could there be a fire in a good place?" there was a fire in the east courtyard, but the west courtyard was empty, and Senior Ye and the colorful butterfly girl were nowhere to be found, could it be ......?"

"Jin Jianwu and the people of the four great families, together with Ye Tong and Caidie, have set a trap to deal with us!" Chen Yong panicked and shouted angrily.

"Senior Ye will be in cahoots with them? Unlikely...... Why don't we go back and have a look first!" Liu Xunyi shook his head worriedly.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yong waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Brother Liu, we are in the light, the opponent is in the dark, we can't be led by the nose all the time." ”

"Brother Chen means ......"

"You go back to the East Cross Courtyard first to find out the situation, and I'll search carefully here. Chen Yong said in a condensed voice, "The people of the four great families suddenly disappeared, there must be something wrong, maybe I can find some clues here." ”

"But ......"

"Brother Liu, don't worry, the east and west courtyards are close at hand, although my martial arts are not as good as yours, I still have the ability to protect myself. ”

Chen Yong's eyes were firm, and he said undoubtedly: "Senior Sister Huichun died under our noses, but we didn't notice it, obviously someone set up an ambush first. In any case, I must find out the truth. First, Senior Sister Huichun is fair. The two give an explanation to the Xianwang Mansion and the Six Great Sects. ”

Seeing that Chen Yong had made up his mind, Liu Xunyi, who was anxious, was inconvenient to persuade more, and told him to "be careful in everything", and then hurriedly ran towards the east across the courtyard.

Chen Yong held the sword in one hand, cautiously searched the courtyard, and then slowly walked to the main room with the door closed, and listened with his ears, the room was as quiet as death, and there was no movement.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Yong's eyes suddenly froze, and then with a push of his left hand, the closed door opened, and the moonlight sprinkled into the dark room, instantly reflecting a dim yellow.

Chen Yong's eyes narrowed slightly, and as his eyes gradually adjusted to the dimness of the room, the scene in front of him surprised him again.

In the room, more than a dozen corpses were suspended from the beams of the room one by one like hanged ghosts, and their bodies were like rootless duckweed, shaking gently.

What surprised Chen Yong even more was that these corpses in front of him were all disciples of Jin Jianwu and the Four Great Families.

"This ......"

Without waiting for Chen Yong, who was full of horror, to figure out the reason, in the darkness behind the corpse, there was a quiet sigh that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

"Alas, I thought it was Liu Xunyi who came, but I didn't expect you to send him to death. ”
