Chapter 260: Chasing the Wind and Ghosts
Fear, like bravery, is an innate ability of the world, an instinct that can only be strengthened and overcome, but cannot be completely changed. When people in the world are often faced with unknown things, they will always be afraid in their hearts, and once fear occupies their minds, people's hearts will be chaotic. And usually after people's hearts are upset, what awaits him is a devastating blow.
Murong Qianhe walked to the man in blue who was already lying motionless on the ground, he wanted to make sure that the man in blue was dead or not, people are unpredictable, you don't know when you will fall into the trap designed by others. And there is another reason, that is, he is not so sure that the man in blue who is not bad in strength will be killed by Nangong Chu.
The result is certain, the middle-aged man in blue is indeed dead, and he died without a trace of nostalgia. Murong Qianhe really believed it this time, and in addition to being surprised by Nangong Chu's strength, there seemed to be a trace of incomprehension and regret.
"The world is declining, the rivers and lakes are no longer rivers and lakes, I didn't expect that the once famous Divine Fist invincible Yu Lingyun would one day become Red Feather's minions. Murong Qianhe shook his head and said with a little emotion.
"Do you know him?" Nangong Chu said lightly, still standing in place. It seems that he is not willing to go to the side of his defeated subordinates, after the incident of Ruyi's abduction, he seems to have changed as a person, and he is no longer as chic as before, but has something deeper.
Murong Qianhe nodded, and said slowly: "It's just that there have been a few faces, ten years ago, he made a name for himself with his iron fists, and then he gradually didn't hear from him, it turned out that he actually joined the red feather, which is really incomprehensible." ”
The corners of Nangong Chu's mouth twitched, and he turned around and walked out, no longer looking at the mess on the ground, as if he already felt that there was no need to stay here. But when he left, he said lightly: "The world is changing, and people will change with it, enemies will always be enemies, but friends may not always be friends." ”
Listening to Nangong Chu's words, Murong Qianhe was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but nod lightly. That's right, in today's rivers and lakes, it seems that nothing seems to be surprising, because people have long forgotten what is the most important thing to walk the rivers and lakes.
A killing that had long been doomed to an end ended unexpectedly, but the only thing that made people feel a little surprised was Nangong Chu's strength, which could no longer be described simply as a flash in the eyes.
The night of Huai'an City seems to have suddenly become very long, and the torches that fill the sky make the night of Huai'an City light up all night, and it will not gradually go out until it is almost dawn. The army of the King of Yanmen was still searching for those companions who had disappeared inexplicably, but they found nothing all night, which made the sky above Huai'an City unconsciously covered with a trace of uneasiness, which shrouded everyone's hearts.
As the torches went out and the voices faded away, the city of Huai'an finally regained its calm, but it didn't seem to last long.
A teahouse has opened its door panels embedded in the door frame early, ready to start the busy day. The teahouse Xiao Er stretched his waist, discounted Ha Che slowly removed the door panel, looked at the gray sky, and couldn't help but shake his head. Last night, there was chaos in the city all night, and he didn't sleep much at all, not only did he have a trace of complaint in his heart, but he could only curse a few words in his heart.
Suddenly, Xiao Er, who was about to turn around and return to the teahouse, was stunned in place, his body stiffened for a while, and then he suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of the city gate, and then he was stunned and his face was pale.
"Boss, boss, come here, what do you see what that?!" Xiao Er stood motionless, as if he had been scared stupidly, but he kept shouting boss.
"What are you doing early in the morning?" the boss scolded and slowly came to Xiao Er's side, and then immediately followed by the same stunned, his face turned pale.
With the gradual increase of pedestrians on the street, more and more people gathered near the city gate, all of them looked at everything in front of them in amazement, and the resistance kept talking about something, some people said that it was a ghost asking for their lives, and some people said that it was a bad thing coming from Huai'an City.
What they saw were corpses, and more than one, more than a dozen or twenty, all hung by ropes around their necks, all hanging from the city gates. But these people didn't hang themselves at first glance, because their bodies were all scarred, and blood marks were all over their bodies, as if they were frequently scratched by some sharp weapon.
These people, all wearing armor, are the companions that the army of the King of Yanmen had been looking for all night last night, but at this time they were all dead, and they died so miserably. Everyone was almost unrecognizable, no one knew what they had experienced, only that their deaths must have been unusual, unbelievable, and such a strange thing had never happened in Huai'an City.
Soon, the army of the King of Yanmen, who had just returned to the camp, returned again, and when they saw the scene at the gate of the city, they were all excited, if the murderer was here at this time, then he would definitely not have a bone left.
One of the young men with two knives on his back walked out slowly, looked coldly at the crowd of onlookers in front of him, his eyes were cold, and he said fiercely: "Who is the murderer?
"You'd better figure it out and say something like this again, don't wronged the good guys!"
"That's right, the big husband is sitting upright, we have no grievances with them, why kill them?"
"Who knows who you have offended, since you came to Huai'an City, there has not been a day of stopping, and we haven't looked for you to reason!"
All of a sudden, the crowd of onlookers began to complain, as if they were indignant at the young man's inexplicable words just now, no one likes to be wronged by others, and it is a crime of murder.
At this moment, the group of soldiers standing behind the young man suddenly pulled out their weapons one after another, and looked coldly at the crowd in front of them, as if only the young man would rush forward without hesitation when he gave the order.
Seeing this scene, the crowd suddenly became silent, and no one dared to say a word more. Although most of the people in the crowd were from various factions in the city, and they also belonged to the people of the rivers and lakes, no one dared to make a mistake with the soldiers who were eyeing the front of them and the 100,000 troops outside the city that could attack at any time.
The young man looked coldly at the silent crowd at this time, gritted his teeth, and said coldly: "Since no one admits it, it's best not to let me find out, otherwise I will lead an army of 100,000 to wash Huai'an City in blood!" He said very seriously, not like he was joking.
At this time, Lu Wanshan, who heard the news, belatedly came, and trotted all the way to the young man, wiping the sweat from his forehead while showing what he thought was the friendliest smile. Sweating like rain, I don't know if he was scared or tired.
I saw that the young man glanced at Lu Wanshan coldly, and said in a deep voice: "You'd better give an explanation to the prince and the prince about this matter, otherwise you understand what the consequences will be." After saying this, he led his men to put down his companion who was hanging from the city gate and carried him to the barracks.
Lu Wanshan looked at the young man who was gradually moving away, the beads of sweat on his forehead were getting bigger and bigger, he knew that Huai'an City would never be at peace again. To tell the truth, he is now eager to uncover the culprit who caused this incident, although he still doesn't know who the other party is, but it is this person who completely ruined his free and uncontrolled life, and it is very likely that Huai'an City will be ruined because of this.
In this side of the Guandi realm, whoever offends the Yanmen Wangfu is tantamount to asking for his own death.
Lu Wanshan glanced at the crowd and said lightly: "If you don't want the army of Yanmen Wangfu to slaughter the city, then find out the murderer as soon as possible, so that you can do it yourself." Then he turned around and left, he already had a retreat in his heart, maybe while there was still room for relaxation in the matter, he should have left this place of right and wrong earlier, Lu Wanshan thought to himself.
As soon as he returned to the city defense camp, Lu Wanshan broke everyone away and locked himself in his room. Then he began to rummage through the cabinets, constantly turning out some gold and silver jewelry from various corners, all packed in a bag, which he had obtained by various means over the years, and seemed to be more important than his life. It seems that Lu Wanshan really wants to escape from here.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in the room and reached Lu Wanshan's ears. I saw that after Lu Wanshan heard this sudden voice, he looked at the door suddenly, but the door was obviously still locked, where did the sound come from?
Lu Wanshan was cold, hurriedly took two steps, picked up the weapon that had just been put aside, stared at the round eyes and kept looking around, and said like a frightened bird: "Who? Who is it?" At this time, there is still a shadow of the guard of Huai'an City, and he is completely greedy for life and afraid of death.
At this time, a figure slowly walked out from behind the wooden cabinet in the corner and walked to Lu Wanshan's approach. Dressed in pitch-black clothes, a pitch-black veil, a pitch-black long knife, and a pair of eyes exposed outside the veil were staring at Lu Wanshan coldly, with a hint of disdain in their eyes.
Seeing this black-clothed man who appeared in front of him like a ghost, Lu Wanshan frowned, he didn't know it, and he thought he had never seen it, but he didn't know why the other party came here and how he came in.
Lu Wanshan looked at the man in black who suddenly appeared in front of him, but he didn't say a word, staring directly at him, and was about to open his mouth to scold, when suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, remembering a person, a person he never wanted to see again......
Huai'an City, the Red Mansion is now, and the ghosts and shadows are crying ghosts and gods......
This man in black who suddenly appeared was none other than Captain Shadow, Cold.
