Chapter 20 Night Kill

The words of Xue Tianhan were like waking up people in a dream, making everyone stunned.

Chen Yutian and Gongsun also nodded slightly. This is also a problem that bothers them at present.

If Liu Jingyan could have an alibi at the moment of Bai Xiuxiu's death, then his murderous theory would be self-defeating.

But right now, they can't find such proof.

When Liu's mother heard this, she thought for a while and said: "My son is a husband, and he usually works with a young man who grew up together, perhaps, that person may know my son's whereabouts at the second watch." ”

"Oh, really? Looks like we're going to visit him tomorrow. "Tatsu Yu Heavenly Dao.

"Nope. Mother Liu shook her head, "He is a husband, and during the day, he is usually resting." If an adult wants to find him, it is best to take advantage of the night when he is awake. ”

"In that case, please tell me where the man lives. Gongsun arched his hand.

Mother Liu shook her head, "I don't know where he lives, but I heard that at times like this, he should be in the Wanjin Gambling House in the city." ”

Hearing this, everyone exchanged a look with each other.

At this moment, Xuan Xi suddenly stood up and looked at everyone.

Everyone was surprised by her sudden movements, and they all looked at her.

"Xuan Xi, what's the matter with you?"

Long Zun glanced at her and asked softly.

"Yes, Master, I have a decision to announce to you here. Xuan Xi bowed his hand slightly towards Long Zun, and then looked at everyone present.

Everyone looked at her seriously.

I saw Xuan Xi looking at everyone and said solemnly, "I have decided to start the retreat from tonight, and if I don't break through to the point where I leave my body, I will never leave the retreat!!"

"What?"

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback, especially Chen Yutian and Long Zun, the two people who knew Xuanxi, and the look of surprise in their eyes was even better than others.

"Ah, princess, are you telling the truth?"

Chen Yutian looked at Xuan Xi like a ghost, and the suspicious light in his eyes almost swallowed him.

"Of course it's true!

Xuan Xi's expression was extremely serious and determined.

Seeing this, Chen Yutian finally understood that she was serious.

But why?

Why did Princess Xuanxi, who had always disliked cultivation the most, suddenly take the initiative to ask for retreat?

This is more puzzling than any mystery.

"Because after this battle with the flower butterfly, I deeply realized the lack of my own skills, I want to become stronger, I don't want to be the weakest person among us!"

Under Long Zun's repeated inquiries, Xuan Xi said.

After listening to her answer, everyone present expressed their understanding.

After all, regardless of the identity of colleagues in the Kowloon Mansion, everyone is also a martial artist, and they all know very well that the heart of a strong man is something that every martial artist must have.

No warrior is willing to be weak.

Therefore, Xuan Xi's thoughts, everyone can more or less empathize.

But after Xuan Xi said these words, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Erchen Yutian among the people.

"And because of ......"

At this, she suddenly blushed.

Chen Yutian's face couldn't help but blush slightly.

Seeing this scene, everyone focused on the two.

In front of everyone's eyes, Xuan Xi's face became more and more red, and finally he couldn't resist this gaze, and covered his little face and fled shyly......

And Chen Yutian looked at her back as she fled, but he was slightly stunned.

Seeing this, everyone didn't care whether there was a misunderstanding or not, and they all had a knowing look and looked at Chen Yutian, who was still on the scene......

......

Wanjin Gambling House, one of the largest gambling houses in Youzhou City.

As one of the most luxurious gambling houses in the entire Youzhou City, Wanjin Gambling House has always been a paradise for some gamblers.

It is said that throughout every night, two-thirds of the gamblers in the entire Youzhou City gather in the Wanjin Gambling House.

Here, you can not only play all the gambling games, but also carry out a series of exciting and fun special activities such as gambling fights, horse betting, and dancing.

And this is also the most attractive part of this Wanjin gambling house.

In order to find out whether Liu Jingyan had an alibi on the night of the crime, Chen Yutian took Gongsun, Huo Yuanji and Tang Fengling, and under the instructions of Liu's mother, came to this famous gold cave.

And when everyone came here, it was just in time for the very special gambling dance going on!

I saw that on the gambling table on the second floor of the gambling house, six beautiful dancing girls were standing with swords in thin clothes, and around the stage, there were many things similar to targets for archery, and at a glance, there were hundreds.

Chen Yutian and everyone stood under the stage, looking at the scene in front of them, all a little curious.

They had no idea what such an ornament was going to do.

However, they didn't come here to gamble.

"I'll wait for the three of us to investigate separately to see if anyone here recognizes that Liu Jingyan's Fa Xiao, since he is a frequent visitor here, there should be many people who know him. ”

Looking at the movement on the stage, Chen Yutian transmitted the sound to the other two.

Gongsun and Tang Fengling nodded slightly, and then, Gongsun left directly, but Tang Fengling did not move.

Not only that, but she also looked at Chen Yutian with a strange expression.

"What are you still standing here for?"

Hearing this, Chen Yutian suddenly wondered, "What do you mean?"

"Aren't you going to be separated from us?"

"Hmm. yes, what's wrong?"

"Then why are you still standing here, hurry up and find out somewhere else. Tang Fengling said to Chen Yutian in a serious manner.

Hearing this, Chen Yutian was speechless.

"Just leave it to me here, you can go find out elsewhere quickly!" Tang Fengling blinked slightly,

Chen Yutian still didn't understand what she meant, so he had to leave.

However, although he left his previous position, he did not leave the gambling ring, but turned around and came to the opposite side.

Looking at the gamblers in front of him who were boiling like boiling water, Chen Yutian frowned slightly, at this time the gambling dance was obviously about to officially begin, and it was the last time for all the gamblers who participated in the gambling dance to place bets.

Looking at the gamblers who overwhelmed the money on their favorite dancing girls, Chen Yutian touched his chin, then took out ten taels of silver from his waist, pondered for a moment, and walked to the betting handicap.

Then, he hugged his fist at one of the gamblers who had just placed a bet, "This brother, I want to ask you what kind of gambling method is this gambling dance?"

The gambler saw that he was giving the rivers and lakes courtesy, and he also hugged his fists, "Brother is a foreigner, right?"

"That's right. I just came to Youzhou today, and I heard that this 10,000-gold gambling house is very interesting, so I came to see it. ”

"No wonder you don't know how to gamble on the dance. The gambler nodded slightly, "Do you see the targets around the stage?"

"See. Chen Yutian nodded.

"The secret of this gambling dance lies in these targets. ”

"Oh, what do you mean by that?"

"The dancing queen of this gambling dance is personally trained by the Wanjin gambling house, these women will play a very beautiful sword dance when gambling on the dance, and this gambling dance is to let these dancing girls in the sword dance on the way, constantly in the target around the stage, and in the end who stabs the target more, then the dancing girl will be the winner of the gambling dance. ”

"I see. Chen Yutian nodded slightly.

"Are you looking at the wooden swords in the hands of these dancers, and the tip of the sword is smeared with all kinds of different paints?"

Chen Yutian took a closer look, "That's true. ”

"These pigments are the final judging criteria, which pigment occupies the most on the target, then this target belongs to the dancing girl of the corresponding color. ”

"I see. Chen Yutian was stunned for a while.

"How about it, do you want to come and gamble on two too?"

Chen Yutian smiled, "Since you have caught up with this kind of grand event, then it is better to gamble on it." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the five dancers in the stands, and quietly opened his spiritual sense.

Immediately, he pressed all the ten taels of silver in his hand on the body of the yellow-clothed dancing girl among them.

Seeing his choice, the gambler suddenly smiled.

Chen Yutian was puzzled, "Brother, what are you laughing at?"

"Brother Tai is really generous, if I guessed correctly, Your Excellency should be a person who practices martial arts, right?"

"Exactly. ”

"I would like to advise my brother Tai below, this is a gambling dance, not a gambling martial arts, and it is not a good martial arts that can be won. ”

As soon as the gambler's words fell, a few dull drums suddenly sounded in the ring, and immediately, the five dancing girls with wooden swords, at the moment when the drums sounded, waved their swords and danced!

The gambling dance has officially begun!

Indeed, as the gambler just said, this gambling dance girl is playing an extremely special sword dance.

It is said that it is special because this kind of sword dance is not at all like the one that is usually seen, and it is full of killing momentum.

This kind of sword dance is more feminine and beautiful, and it is indeed very pleasing to the eye when used to watch.

In addition, this seemingly beautiful dance to outsiders is more like a fierce competition in the eyes of those dancers.

Because, they not only need to make every dance movement extremely beautiful, so that they can stab more targets in the dance, but also beware of the sneak attack of other dancers on the stage, or prevent other dancers from succeeding, so as to ensure that the final victory will belong to them.

Chen Yutian looked at the fierce dance competition on the stage and couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly.

Indeed, as the gambler said, here, good martial arts really do not necessarily mean victory, because good martial arts means that it is likely to become the first target of other dancers.

For example, the yellow-clothed dancer on the stage now is completely targeted by the other four dancers at the moment, not only did she not hit a single target, but she was also attacked by the four of them with a dance, and there was no hope for the province at all.

"This is fundamentally a contest of comprehensive strength. Martial arts, scheming, luck, and dancing skills are all indispensable......"

Eventually, Tatsu Yutian sighed.

Because, the yellow-clothed dancing girl he bet on was targeted by the four of them halfway and lost the chance to win.

"It seems that it is really not suitable for gambling. He laughed to himself.

"Haha...... Gambling is based on luck, and Your Excellency is just not very lucky!" the gambler laughed, and the dancing girl he bet on won the second place, which made him a lot of money.

Chen Yutian looked at him, "It seems that Brother Tai is a veteran of gambling." ”

"Haha...... Don't dare to be, don't dare to be ......"

"Then I don't know if Brother Tai is familiar with the gamblers in this 10,000-gold gambling house?" Chen Yutian's eyes flashed and he asked.

"Haha...... Brother, it's not me who brags. The people in this Wanjin Gambling House, as long as they are not novices like you, I know all of them. The gambler laughed and said very boldly.

"Oh, then I'll ask you about someone, and if you're willing to help, this is yours. ”

As he spoke, Chen Yutian took out ten taels of silver again.

As soon as Lao Hu saw this, his eyes straightened, and he nodded hurriedly, "Okay, Your Excellency is the one who speaks! It's not that I, Lao Hu, is blowing to you, I don't know anyone who is a frequent visitor to this Wanjin gambling house." Who you're looking for, just say it. ”

"That's very good. Chen Yutian smiled slightly, and put the silver tael in his hand into Lao Hu's hand, "Brother Hu, I want to ask if you know the big mouth Liu?"

The big-mouthed Liu is the nickname of Liu Jingyan in the mouth of Liu's mother.

"Oh, I know, he must have been at the front of the ring every time he gambled and danced in the past, but I haven't seen him today. ”

"Will he gamble downstairs?"

"No, it can't be. "That kid is not only a gambler, but also a pervert." In the past, whenever he gambled and danced, he would inevitably stand at the front of the opposite side. I'm not here today, so I guess I didn't come. ”

As he spoke, Lao Hu pointed to the other side.

Chen Yutian looked in the direction he indicated, and saw that Tang Fengling on the other side was also talking to a person, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he thought that he had received the same news as Chen Yutian.

"And do you know where he lives?"

"This ...... Ignorance. I don't know him very well, I just know him. Lao Hu shook his head.

"I see. Chen Yutian nodded, "Then do you know who he is more familiar with in the gambling house?"

"I don't know much about that. ”

"That's right. Chen Yutian nodded slightly, his eyes showing a thoughtful glow......

At this moment, a figure suddenly passed by beside him, Chen Yutian didn't care, but suddenly, his eyes flashed!

The figure just now seems to be ...... Something familiar......

went down to the second floor, Chen Yutian, Tang Fengling and Gongsun met at the door.

The three of them each stated the results of their own investigations, but the information they received was basically the same. Only Gongsun found a person who was familiar with Dazui Liu on the first floor and inquired about his address.

So the three of them rushed there at once.

However, after arriving, he found that the big-mouthed Liu was not at home.

And according to his neighbors, this person has been missing for five days.

......

In the dead of night, at the door of the inn, Shopkeeper Lin stretched his waist and slowly walked to the quiet street.

The moon is round and bright tonight.

Shopkeeper Lin was also in a very happy mood.

However, at this time, he didn't know that death was about to befall him.

Not long after walking, a figure suddenly appeared on the street in front of him.

The familiar bright red cape, the familiar black power suit, and the familiar butterfly mask...... Some are all so familiar.

Even, even the scene, there is a sense of déjà vu.

The figure on the street, after seeing Shopkeeper Lin, did not say anything. Yes, just a sneer.

Immediately, the butterfly dart shot out, and a splash of blood splashed ......

The wind blew, and the figures on the street dispersed like the wind, leaving only one side embroidered with blood-colored butterflies, and a white embroidered handkerchief......

And the corpse that collapsed powerlessly on the cold ground......
