The wanted notice was posted all over the city, and the entire Xuandu was suddenly sensational, and the people knew that the murderer who caused many headless murders had been found out by the government, and he was the person on the portrait of the wanted bounty, and they couldn't help but talk about it.

In the crowd, there was a not very obvious figure, after seeing the portrait of Yue Lingxiao on the wanted notice, his eyes were slightly condensed.

Then he lowered the hat on his head and walked away briskly with his head down.

After walking to a small alley that no one paid attention to, he gently took out a palm-sized jade plaque from his arms, and his fingers slashed across the jade plaque with internal force, and the jade plaque suddenly lit up with a faint light.

Then, with a movement of his mind, his spiritual sense instantly invaded the jade plaque, and after a while, the light on the jade plaque gradually dimmed.

After the light disappeared completely, the person slowly put away the jade card, lowered the hat in his hand again, looked around, and after making sure that no one noticed him, he walked away quickly......

At the same time, inside the Kowloon Mansion.

Chen Yutian held a very ordinary-looking painting in his hand, and looked at the grandson in front of him with a slight solemnity.

Seeing him like this, Gongsun couldn't help asking, "My lord, what's wrong?"

Chen Yutian pointed to the painting in his hand, sighed, and said, "For some reason, I can't see anything wrong with this painting at all. ”

Gongsun looked down at the painting and couldn't help but smile. The painting in front of me was the one I stared at in Meng Xingyun's room yesterday, but I didn't expect the adults to even bring this painting back as evidence.

"My lord, in fact, the problem with this painting is not in the painting, but in the words. Gongsun smiled.

"Oh?

Chen Yutian was slightly stunned, and before he could take a closer look at the painting, he heard Zhou Lin's exclamation outside the hall.

"Tatsu-sama, it's not good, it's not good......"

Hearing this, Chen Yutian had no choice but to put down the painting in his hand first, because from Zhou Lin's shout, he could guess that when he came to find him this time, something big must have happened, otherwise he would not be so anxious.

"Tatsu-sama, something is wrong......

Zhou Lin hurriedly came to the hall and bowed to Chen Yutian.

Chen Yutian smiled slightly and asked, "Zhou Zhutou, what happened, why are you so flustered?"

I only heard Zhou Lin slowly breathe a sigh of relief and shouted, "Human head...... The human head has appeared again......"

Hearing this, Chen Yutian was stunned, and after glancing at each other with Gongsun, he asked in a deep voice, "Where is it?"

Zhou Lin nodded and said, "My lord, please come with me." ”

Chen Yutian hurriedly rolled up the painting in his hand again, gathered everyone with Gongsun, and left with Zhou Lin.

......

......

In the west of Xuandu City, in front of a store called "Zhou Ji Restaurant".

Xing Enming's expression was gloomy, and he looked up at the top of the bamboo pole in front of the restaurant, which was originally used to hang wine banners.

Just now, there was a human head hanging there.

The owner of Zhou Ji Restaurant is an old man named Zhou Li. The old man is about 60 years old, and he has opened a restaurant here for more than 10 years, and he has always been good friends with people, and his reputation among the neighbors is also good.

But the old man didn't know who he had offended, and when the hotel was about to open today, he found that on the bamboo pole in front of the door, someone had an unkempt head with blood stains.

The moment he saw the human head, Zhou Li was directly frightened and fainted.

Fortunately, he also had a clever nephew by his side, and as soon as he saw that something was wrong, he immediately took the neighbors who saw the head together to Gyeonggi Prefecture to report to the official.

After Xing Enming learned of the situation for the first time, he thought that the missing head of the headless case had reappeared, so he immediately rushed over with the officials, and ordered Zhou Lin to go to Jiulong Mansion to inform Chen Yutian and others, but who knew that after coming to the scene, he found that things did not seem to be what he imagined.

Because, just now, when he ordered someone to take off the human head from the bamboo pole, he was surprised to find that the face of the human head had already been cut beyond recognition with a knife, and its identity could not be recognized. And judging from the fact that the scars are still very new, it should have been a while ago.

But recently, there has simply not been a lack of new headless corpses.

"But openly hanging people's heads in front of the store, such an act is simply unreasonable!" Xing Enming stared at the top of the bamboo pole, his expression becoming more and more gloomy.

Although the matter may not have anything to do with the headless case, the perpetrators of such a heinous act of blaming must also be punished.

At this moment, Chen Yutian and others came here under the leadership of Zhou Lin.

Chen Yutian and the others had already heard Zhou Lin talk about the general situation on the road, and while they were surprised by the murderer's bad behavior, they also felt that the other party's psychology seemed to be a little perverted.

After a few simple greetings with Xing Enming, Chen Yutian came to the bamboo pole and looked up.

Zhou Li's nephew, Zhou Xing, was standing beside him at this moment.

Chen Yutian looked at the bamboo pole carefully and asked Zhou Xing: "Zhou Xing, can you tell this official how this head is hung on the bamboo pole?"

"Of course, my lord!" Zhou Xing nodded, and then spoke.

"My lord, when we saw the human head, it was hung on the hook on the bamboo pole in my house, where we usually hang the wine banner, and the hair of the human head was tied together with each other, so we hung it on the hook with the hair, and hung it. ”

Hearing this, Chen Yutian nodded slightly, and asked again: "You and your uncle really don't know about this head?"

"This is nature!" Zhou Xing nodded heavily, then looked up at Chen Yutian, and said, "My lord, I dare to pack a ticket for you, my uncle and I don't know about this person! We are all good people, how can we kill people?"

Chen Yutian nodded noncommittally, and then asked, "Then do you know if your uncle has any enemies?"

Zhou Xing shook his head again, but before he could speak, he listened to Xing Enming on the side and said: "Lord Chen, these have been asked by the official one by one long before you came, Zhou Li is kind on weekdays, has not offended anyone, and has never had a grudge with others, and is a good person in the neighborhood. ”

Hearing this, Chen Yutian nodded slightly.

At the same time, Huo Yuanji and Lin Feifei were talking with a few people around who were watching the excitement.

Through conversations, many frequent visitors who are familiar with Zhou Li's uncle and nephew have confirmed that what Zhou Xing said is true.

The two couldn't help frowning.

Since he didn't offend anyone, why did the murderer hang his head on a bamboo pole for no reason?

The two of them accidentally looked across the street and found that the opposite side was also a hotel.

Seeing this scene, they couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both found a faint essence in each other's eyes.

"I see, this is indeed a possibility...... Looking at the restaurant opposite, Xue Tianhan couldn't help but nod secretly in his heart.

Beside him, Ling Miaoyin stared at the figure he was thinking, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

On the other side, Wu Dongtian and Tang Fengling looked at the restaurant opposite, and the former smiled secretly: "It is said that peers are enemies, these two restaurants are so close, if there is no problem, it would be strange......

Tang Fengling also nodded slightly.

Bai Fan, on the other hand, stared at a person in the crowd.

It was a man with a hat, his head bowed, his face almost buried down, he looked about thirty or forty years old, with a strong build, pushing a small wheelbarrow full of goods, standing at the very edge of the crowd and watching the excitement.

This person only appeared after they came, and as soon as he appeared, Bai Fan's eyes couldn't help but be attracted to him, for some reason, he always felt that this merchant was a little suspicious.

Although the other party does not have any suspicious behavior or behavior.

But his instinct told him that there was definitely something wrong with the person in front of him.

For a while, Bai Fan's gaze was difficult to leave this person, and what was even more strange was that the longer his gaze stayed on this person, the more suspicious the feeling became.

"Childe, do you think it will be done by the restaurant opposite?

Suddenly, the voice of the shadow of the sky sounded in my ears.

Hearing this, Bai Fan was slightly stunned, and glanced back at Tianying, only to find that he was looking at the restaurant opposite the "Zhou Ji Restaurant" like everyone else, with a slight flash of excitement in his eyes.

He turned his head to look at the restaurant, and found that the restaurant opposite was not much higher than the "Zhouji Restaurant" in front of him, both in terms of the decoration in front of the door and the decoration in the hall.

But it was deserted in front of its door, and it didn't seem to have any business.

In such a comparison, it is not impossible to say that it is a rivalry.

Just thinking about it, Bai Fan suddenly came back to his senses, and when he looked back, he found that the somewhat suspicious merchant he noticed before had long since disappeared.

......

......

Yu Ji pushed the wheelbarrow and left the crowd.

He didn't have much interest in what happened in front of the restaurant, and the only thing he felt a little interested in was the human head hanging from the bamboo pole.

Unfortunately, he arrived a little late, and by the time he passed there, the head had already been taken off by Gyeonggi Province.

Coupled with the fact that there was always one person in the crowd with eyes on him, he felt very uncomfortable and disliked it.

So he left.

Of course, there is an even more important reason for his departure, he has to find someone, a treacherous villain!

This is his most important task in Beijing this time!

He had to do it, and he had to do it! Because he wanted to get justice for his brothers who died at the hands of that man!

He is in the set.

It is also the third snake head among the nine snake heads of the Nine Snake Society in the past.

As the third brother of the Chinese people, he has the right and obligation to do so.

So he can't stop, and there's no reason to stop.

"Huh?"

Walking out of the crowd, Yu Ji looked back, he wanted to find out what Fang Cai had been staring at him in the crowd.

But he found something that surprised him even more1

It was a serpentine pattern painted on the wall of a small alley!

The white lime, outlined on the blue-gray ancient wall, reflected in Yu Ji's eyes, made his eyes suddenly flash slightly!

This pattern, he is very familiar.

Because this is the secret mark used by them to contact each other when the Nine Snakes Society was still alive.

There are less than four people in the world who know this method of contact.

Yu Ji groaned slightly, reached out and touched his waist. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

At his waist, he hid the sword that accompanied him in his life.

Whenever he felt its presence, no matter what the situation, it was able to calm him down as quickly as possible.

Because, as long as the sword is still in his hand, he can be undefeated.

At this time, when I was young, I realized the truth after many years of wandering in the rivers and lakes.

Although his youth is no longer there, his skills are still there, his ambition is still there, and his sword is still there.

"I'd like to see who left this secret mark!"

His eyes flickered slightly, and he took a resolute stride in the direction indicated by the secret note......

Along the way, he saw the same dark marks, white lime trails, on more walls, all the way to his eyes, until he came to a remote uninhabited alley.

The alley is very narrow, lined with gray stone and brick courtyard walls, and the courtyard behind the wall has long been barren, overgrown with weeds, and there are no people.

Here, it has been abandoned.

Looking at the bleak scenery on both sides, Yu Ji's eyes froze slightly.

A gust of wind blew, and a sense of desolation and desolation suddenly came to my heart.

There was even a faint murderous aura, mixed with the breeze, blocking the void and making Yu Ji's heart beat suddenly.

Yu Ji's hand involuntarily grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist.

At the same time, the nerves all over his body involuntarily tightened, and his spirit was even more concentrated.

A life-and-death crisis comes to mind!

At the same time, the murderous aura in the void suddenly burst into flames, carrying a piercing killing machine, suddenly towards Yu Ji's chest, rushing towards it.

Yu Ji only felt a flower in front of him.

A brilliant sword slashed through the void and stabbed straight in!

Yu Ji had never seen such a brilliant sword, like a meteor in the night sky, falling at the end of the sky.

At that moment, without thinking, he suddenly pulled out the long sword on his waist with his right hand, and subconsciously stabbed out a sword at the same time, his footsteps suddenly retreated!

Bite......

The moment the sword touched and the sparks splashed, the energy was about to erupt, and the surrounding brick walls were wreaking havoc.

The clearly visible sword marks were permanently left on the gray bricks.

Yu Ji was surprised by the strong strength of the opponent's sword, and his retreating steps slammed suddenly!

The long sword rotated, and the strange power flowed, and it actually returned all the power contained in the opponent's sword.

An inexplicable repulsion suddenly came out!

The other party was ejected seven steps in an instant.

Yu Ji put away the slightly surprised expression on his face, and then looked at the person standing in front of him.

The other party's face was covered and he couldn't see his face clearly.

"You have so much trouble luring me over, but you only dare to see me with a veil, you really disappoint me!" Yu Ji tightened the sword in his hand, looked at the person opposite coldly, and reprimanded.

Hearing this, the person opposite smiled directly.

A voice suddenly came into Yu Ji's ears.

"Third brother, we haven't seen each other for a long time......"

Hearing this voice, Yu Ji's expression suddenly changed!
