Chapter 235: Under the Moon in Chenzhou
"In what direction did the man go?"
"West!"
Hearing this, Tang Cong was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Sect Master, what are your plans?"
"Catch up and ask what is going on, and the truth will be revealed. Liu Xunyi said in a deep voice, "Master Chen died tragically, Brother Xu was seriously injured, this matter must not be counted like this! Tang Afu was able to send them back, and he also left me such a strange message, obviously he must know something." As long as he can be reached, all the mysteries in Chenzhou City will be revealed. ”
"What if the person who made a move on Chen Yong and Xu Heng was Tang Afu?" asked Xun Qin.
Liu Xunyi's face was complicated, and there was a hesitant gleam in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Then I have to ask him why he did this!"
"Tang Afu was born in the Valley of Despair, and he was originally a martial arts heretic, so it was no accident that he made a move on us......"
"No need to say more!" Liu Xunyi waved his hand to interrupt Liao Chuan's speculation, gritted his teeth and promised, "If it is really him who ambushed and killed Sect Master Chen and Brother Xu in Taohuawu, I will make him pay for his blood debts!
After that, without waiting for everyone to persuade him again, Liu Xunyi flew out of the window without hesitation, and disappeared into the hazy moonlit night in the blink of an eye.
From the Chenfu Inn all the way to the west, Liu Xunyi showed Dengping Dushui, exerting his light skills to the extreme, and his body was like a ghost, shuttling quickly in the streets and alleys of Chenzhou.
Sometimes they soar into the sky and jump onto the rooftop gatehouse. Sometimes he dives into the sea and wanders in the poor streets and alleys.
Liu Xunyi's speed is staggering. The previous breath was still outside the alley, and in the blink of an eye, he had jumped out of the end of the corner, and the person who passed by the watchman flashed by, and the watchman even thought that he was dazzled.
Rising and falling in the east and falling in the west, flying up and down, together in a while, Liu Xunyi had collected most of the west of the city, but he never noticed Tang Afu's shadow.
After all, at this time, nearly two hours have passed since Chen Yong and Xu Heng appeared at the Chenfu Inn, and if Tang Afu wanted to hide, Liu Xunyi would have nothing to do.
Standing on the empty and lonely street, Liu Xunyi, who looked anxious, looked left and right.
He suddenly stepped down, jumped on a roof, and then kicked lightly with both feet, the body did not stop, and then rose into the air again, flew up to the teahouse, and then left a little, volleyed in the air, and finally landed firmly on the top of a temple in the west of Chenzhou, the highest terrain.
Liu Xunyi golden rooster is independent, stepping on the kiss of the owl, and his body is as stable as Mount Tai.
He raised his eyes to look at the stars and the bright moon, looked down at the courtyard building, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Tang Afu! What kind of hero is he who hides his head and shows his tail?"
Liu Xunyi's shout spread out thousands of miles away with the wind, echoing in the sky over Chenzhou Xicheng, and in the silent night, it seemed extraordinarily transparent and loud.
"Tang Afu! I know you can hear me! Now that you have already found someone to pass on to me, why should you be afraid to meet me? If you have anything to say, you can speak to me face to face, and you don't have to be sneaky and sneaky!"
The echo floated in the night sky, and could not be dispersed for a long time. Liu Xunyi's shout seemed to wake up the people nearby, and the originally dark courtyard houses were lit up by candlelight.
"In the middle of the night, which dog is yelling? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu reported to the official to arrest you......"
"Smack!"
Before the words fell, Liu Xunyi's feet slammed down, and a piece of green tiles flew out like an arrow from the string, smashing hard at the man's feet, and the frightened man's body was so excited that he quickly drilled back into the room without looking back, hurriedly blew out the candle, and didn't dare to argue again.
Due to Chen Yong's death, Xu Heng's life hung by a thread, and Liu Xunyi's mood at this moment was extremely gloomy. If it weren't for that, he would never do such an "unreasonable" thing on weekdays.
I waited for a long time, but I still didn't get any response. Liu Xunyi still didn't give up, he looked around, riveted his strength again, and shouted loudly: "Tang Afu, you ......"
"Liu Xunyi, I expected that you would definitely come to me. ”
This time, before Liu Xunyi's words fell, a cold voice had quietly sounded behind him.
Liu Xunyi suddenly looked back, but saw Tang Afu, dressed in white, standing there on the kiss of the owl in the other corner of the top of the hall.
The night breeze was cold, the bright moon was at the head, Tang Afu and Liu Xunyi stood opposite, their eyes facing each other, and they were only a few feet away.
"You're finally willing to show up. Liu Xunyi was the first to speak.
"Or rather, I've been waiting for you. Tang Afu said lightly, his voice was like Liu Xunyi's memory, neither salty nor light, neither happy nor sad, and there was no emotion at all.
"Chen Yong and Xu Heng ......"
"I didn't kill it. Without waiting for Liu Xunyi to question, Tang Afu had already taken the initiative to explain, "When I appeared, the two of them were already in danger of life and death!"
"Who is the murderer?" Liu Xunyi's eyes moved, although Tang Afu said that there was no evidence, but for some reason, Liu Xunyi still believed in him.
"I don't know. Tang Afu's eyes flashed with a flash of memory, and he said lightly, "But that person's martial arts are extremely high, and he is not below you and me." Alone, he first killed all the twenty disciples of Jinjianwu and the Four Great Sects in the West Cross Courtyard of Taohuawu, and then ambushed Chen Yong, who had accidentally bumped, and ...... in another guest room Sudden Xu Heng. ”
"What?"
Tang Afu's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and he hit him on the head, which shocked Liu Xunyi's gloomy mood, and then thousands of doubts came one after another, instantly pouring into his mind.
"You make it clear!" Liu Xunyi asked urgently, "You said that person not only killed the Chen Sect Master, but also killed the disciples of the Golden Sword Dock and the Four Great Sects?"
"Yes. ”
"How is this possible?"
"Why is it impossible?" Tang Afu asked rhetorically, "Do you think the people who are dealing with you are the Golden Sword Dock and the Four Great Families?"
"Yes, but ......" Liu Xunyi's mind was in a mess, his brows were tightly locked, he thought hard, and replied incoherently, "When that person ambushed and killed the disciples of Jin Jianwu and the four great families, we should have been busy preparing the banquet in the East Cross Courtyard, and we were so busy that we didn't notice it...... But soon after, Huichun, a disciple of the Emei faction, was killed, and then a fire broke out in the East Cross Courtyard, and there were several black-clothed masked men and some archers in ambush outside the Taohuawu...... Those people were supposed to be disciples of Jin Jianwu and the Four Great Families, but how could they ......?"
Suddenly, Liu Xunyi's eyes flashed, and an unbelievable thought suddenly appeared in his mind. Liu Xunyi's face changed greatly, and he muttered thoughtfully: "Could it be...... Ye senior?"
"It's not. Before the words fell, Tang Afu shook his head bluntly, "That person is young, almost the same as you and me, how can it be Ye Tong?"
Liu Xunyi frowned, and muttered to himself: "Who is such a master?"
Suddenly, Liu Xunyi's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized: "That's why you asked people to send me a message, saying something 'a person who deceives the world and steals fame, Li Dai Taozhuang', and it is this person who wants to talk about it." ”
"You're smart. Tang Afu replied nondeniably.
"But...... Why did you save Chen Yong and Xu Heng, and why did you tell me this?" Liu Xunyi asked puzzledly, "You are a person from the Valley of Despair, you should be happy to see the infighting between the six major sects and the four great families, how can you help us solve the misunderstanding?"
"I'm not helping the so-called decent people, but ...... Help you. Tang Afu sighed lightly and said coldly: "Have you forgotten that when you were in the Western Regions, I owed you a favor?"
Hearing this, Liu Xunyi couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and said in surprise: "So you helped and told me the truth...... Just to repay the favor I owe?"
"Yes. Tang Afu admits undeniably, "But when I saved Chen Yong and Xu Heng, they were already dying. Goodbye to your face, think they're dead. So this favor ...... I still haven't paid it back. ”
"Brother Chen and Brother Xu, they ......" Before he finished speaking, Liu Xunyi's expression darkened, and then he sighed, obviously not wanting to dwell too much on this topic.
Suddenly, Liu Xunyi raised his eyebrows, and asked in a strange way: "You suddenly appeared in Chenzhou, did you come to repay my favor?" or...... Another purpose?"
Tang Afu snorted lightly, and suddenly waved his hand, and a black shadow instantly pierced the night sky and shot straight towards Liu Xunyi.
Liu Xunyi took it down, took it to his eyes and took a closer look, it turned out to be a "willow leaf copper coin".
Strangely, on the back of Tang Afu's copper coin, there is also an extra peach blossom carving, which is not exactly the same as the ordinary "willow leaf copper coin".
"This is ......," Liu Xunyi said in surprise, "Why do you have a willow leaf copper coin?" Could it be that Senior Ye also invited you?"
"This copper coin was not given to me by Ye Tong. Tang Afu said, "It was given to me by the valley master." ”
"Heartless Valley Master?" Liu Xunyi said in astonishment, "Is it possible...... Senior Ye not only invited the six major sects and the four great families this time, but also invited the Desperate Valley?"
Tang Afu shook his head and said: "This copper coin has been left in the valley for more than 20 years. ”
"What?" Liu Xunyi became more and more confused as he listened, so that he was puzzled. At the moment, he didn't even know where to start.
After thinking for a moment, Liu Xunyi shook his head desperately and asked, "Then what is the purpose ......of your coming to Chenzhou?"
"On the orders of the valley lord, find the owner of this copper coin. Tang Afu said, "As for helping you, it's purely a coincidence." ”
During the conversation, Liu Xunyi suddenly remembered that Ye Tong's wife, Peach Blossom Mother-in-law, had lived alone in the Valley of Despair, and later Ye Tong went down the mountain to look for her, and the two left together and disappeared from then on.
Thinking about it this way, will today's ruthless valley master be inextricably linked to the former Peach Blossom Mother-in-law and Ye Tong?
Liu Xunyi thought secretly: "If the ruthless valley lord really has an old relationship with Ye Senior and his wife, then it is reasonable for Tang Afu to come here today with copper coins." Eighty percent of the ruthless valley lord received the news in the rivers and lakes, and learned that Ye Tong invited many sects to gather in Chenzhou, so in order to reunite with the old man, the ruthless valley lord specially sent Tang Afu to this trip. I just don't know, is this 'old man' a friend or an enemy?"
Thinking about this section, Liu Xunyi was a little relieved that Tang Afu suddenly appeared in Taohuawu.
After thinking for a moment, Liu Xunyi asked thoughtfully, "That...... Can you find Senior Ye?"
"No!" Tang Afu said bluntly, "When I arrived at Taohuawu, Ye Tong was not there, but I accidentally saw Chen Yong and Xu Heng in the West Cross Courtyard being chased and killed. ”
"Where did Senior Ye go?" Liu Xunyi frowned and muttered to himself, "Does he know everything that happened in Taohuawu tonight?"
"Could it be that you have seen Ye Tong?" Tang Afu changed his words and asked in a condensed voice.
"Yes. Liu Xunyi nodded subconsciously.
"Where is he?"
"I want to know too. Liu Xunyi smiled bitterly, "After noon, I haven't seen him again." Before, I suspected that he and the four great families teamed up to set up an ambush, but now that I think about it, maybe I was too worried. ”
Tang Afu frowned and asked, "Who are the black-clothed masked men and archers you are talking about?"
"I don't know. Liu Xunyi said bitterly, "Tonight, the disciples of the Six Great Sects suffered heavy casualties, and Elder Lu of the Kunlun Sect was tragically killed by ten thousand arrows piercing his heart. However, after I fought with those masked men, I found that their martial arts were very strange, and it seemed to be ...... It's not the number of Central Plains Road. ”
"So, these people have nothing to do with Ye Tong?"
"There shouldn't be ......," Liu Xunyi hesitated, "unless Senior Ye deals with foreigners." However, Senior Ye is old, and he was once the Taishan Beidou of the Central Plains martial arts, so he should not collude with foreign clans and mess with me in the Central Plains. ”
"Among the people who came to Chenzhou this time, there is one of the four masters of Jinjianwu, as well as the owner of the first house of Tangmen, they are all first-class masters. Liu Xunyi sighed, "I didn't expect to be murdered......
"I haven't seen any of the people you're talking about. Tang Afu suddenly interrupted, "Looking at the costumes, the dead are all ordinary disciples of Jin Jianwu and the Four Great Families, not like any masters." ”
Hearing this, Liu Xunyi's eyes suddenly flashed with suspicion, and then his eyebrows were furrowed and he meditated hard, and suddenly his eyes changed, and he exclaimed: "It's bad! They want to deliberately provoke an incident and set off a bloody infighting in the Central Plains martial arts." ”
Tang Afu looked at Liu Xunyi, who looked flustered, and couldn't help but have a touch of contempt between his eyebrows. In his opinion, the famous and decent people in the martial arts are not worth it at all.
"Brother Tang!" Liu Xunyi suddenly perked up, and said with a straight face, "Don't you want to repay my favor? Now is the right time, I want to recover this favor debt from you!"
"What do you mean by that?"
"In any case, you have to help me find out the real murderer who killed Jin Jianwu, the disciples of the four great families, and ambushed Chen Yong and Xu Heng!" Liu Xunyi pleaded with an excited expression, "On the second day of the eighth month, kidnap him to the Qin Mansion in Hexi! I will use him to quell a life-and-death catastrophe in the Central Plains Martial Arts!"
