Chapter 16: The Night Detective

Hu Yun put away the knife stall and returned to his daily sleeping place to close his eyes and recuperate. It was getting dark, and Hu Yun estimated that in the middle of the night, he got up and quietly walked to Han's house.

The night was as cool as water, the moonlight was charming, Hu Yun was not in the slightest mood to enjoy the moon and the scenery, hid his body in the shadow of the wall, and walked quickly with his head down. It didn't take long to arrive near the Han family's house.

Went around to the back wall, looked around, there was silence around, there was no figure, he jumped forward, grabbed the wall with both hands, and then slowly lifted his body, revealing his eyes to look into the courtyard. This is a small backyard garden with some flowers and a few rockeries.

Hu Yun saw that there was no one in the garden, so he held his breath, turned over the wall, and landed in the garden.

He followed the garden path, crossed the rockery, walked up a long corridor, and walked forward a little further, and a fork in the road appeared.

Although Hu Yun had been here five years ago, he was still young at that time, and he couldn't remember the road in this courtyard clearly, and when he was hesitating, he suddenly heard footsteps in the corridor next to him.

Hu Yun looked left and right, and found that there was a flower bush not far from the corridor, so he hurriedly jumped over to hide his body. The footsteps became louder and louder, and Hu Yun looked out through the gap in the flowers, only to see two maids walking over with lanterns, one of them holding a plate with a pot of wine and two dishes on it.

The maid on the plate said as she walked: "Sister Chunlan, since I arrived in Hanfu, I haven't seen my master so annoyed, and I haven't slept for several days." ”

Another maid named Chunlan said, "No, it's been three days." I heard the housekeeper say that the master had practiced spells before, and he was not an ordinary person, otherwise his body would have collapsed a long time ago. ”

The maid before said again: "Sister, I'm flustered now, you have been here for a long time, and you have the best relationship with the housekeeper, did he reveal what the matter is?"

Chunlan said: "Hey, isn't it just those two monks, saying that they were asking the master to help catch someone, but at first the master refused, and then the two monks didn't know what tricks to use, so they forced the master to agree." The housekeeper said that although the master promised with his mouth, he was very unhappy in his heart, so he couldn't eat or sleep well these days. Having said that, those of us who are subordinates just need to do our part well. We can't help with anything else. ”

The two maids talked as they went, and when they reached the fork in the corridor, they walked towards the fork in the middle.

Hu Yun looked at the backs of the two and thought: "Nine times out of ten, those two monks came for me, listening to the meaning of their words, Uncle Han should be forced to be helpless, even so, there is room for maneuver." I'm going to see Uncle Han tonight and see what he has to say?"

Seeing that the two maids were gradually moving away, he quietly followed.

After a few twists and turns, I came to a large house with a lamp lit. The two maids knocked on the door, then walked in, and after a short time, came out with empty trays.

Hu Yun hid his body behind the pillars in the corridor, and when the two maids left, and were just about to leave to knock on the door, he felt a breeze passing overhead, and his eyes glanced up, only to see a silver glittering wire mesh covering his head.

The wire net appeared silently, and the speed was extremely fast, Hu Yun didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly rushed forward, but he didn't expect a sudden cold light to flash in the dark, and two steel knives were stretched out and slashed towards him.

Normally, if you dodge the wire mesh, you will be slashed by the steel knife, and if you dodge the steel knife, you will be captured by the wire mesh.

After all, Hu Yun had cultivated the Immortal Sutra, and his body's reaction and flexibility were extraordinary, I saw him twist his body and turn it to the side, and then his speed did not decrease at all, and his body refracted forward, flashing past the two steel knives, and standing in an open space at the end of the corridor.

His series of actions were as fast as lightning, and unexpected, the people in ambush didn't expect it, and they couldn't help but let out a "huh".

"What a handsome skill. The door of the big house opened at some point, Han Tongshan stood at the door, his eyes blazing, and said: "With this skill alone, you won't be a little screaming flower child who steals chickens and dogs, friend, who are you? What is the purpose of coming to my Han someone's house?"

Hu Yun turned his body sideways, and saw three men in black coming out of the dark place next to the corridor on the left, with a fierce face. Two of them had knives in their hands, and the rest of them were holding silver gauze nets, staring at him viciously, looking eager to try.

When Hu Yun saw that Han Tongshan had already appeared, he was reluctant to make any more moves, so he clasped his hands into fists, saluted and said, "Uncle Han, you have always been in good health, I am Hu Yun." ”

"Hu Yun. As soon as these two words came out, it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, Han Tongshan involuntarily took a step back, and asked in a trembling voice: "You...... You...... Say what?"

Hu Yun stretched out his hand to wipe the red mud on his face, and said with a smile: "I'm Hu Yun, five years ago, I visited you with my father, don't you remember?"

Han Tongshan stared at Hu Yun's face and looked at the half-salary, slapped his thigh, and lowered his voice: "Oh, it's really you, Hu Xian's nephew, you are really bold enough." He quickly turned his head and looked around, and said, "This is not the place to talk, come with me." Then he said to the three men in black, "You three are on guard, and no one will be allowed to approach me around my study." ”

"Yes. ”

The three men were back in hid in the dark.

Han Tongshan beckoned and said, "These three people are my guards, and they are loyal to me, don't worry, come into the house and talk." ”

Hu Yun nodded, at this time there was no other choice but to believe in Han Tongshan unconditionally, and he followed Han Tongshan into the house.

After sitting down, Han Tongshan asked straight to the point: "Nephew Hu Xian, where is your father, why are you alone?"

Hu Yun's eyes were red, and he choked up and said, "Dad and sister are gone, and now I am the only one left in the Hu family." ”

"Ah, Brother Hu Xian...... He ......" Han Tongshan stood up suddenly, then sat down slowly, and after a while, asked, "Virtuous nephew, what is going on?

Hu Yun nodded.

"What?"

Han Tongshan stood up in surprise again, although he heard the rumors from the outside world, he never believed it in his heart.

Taiqingmen and Leiyin Temple have been friends for generations, could it be that Hu Zhennan lost his mind and went crazy and poisoned the Huihai Monk? Even so, take a step back and say, what Hu Zhennan cultivates, he can't be clearer, Huihai Zen Master is one of the protectors of Leiyin Temple, and his mana is strong, as long as he moves his fingers, he can cure Hu Zhennan to death, how can Hu Zhennan kill Huihai?

But at this moment, seeing Hu Yun nodding and admitting, he couldn't help but believe it.

Hu Yun sighed and said, "Hey, Uncle Han, it's really a mistake. That night, my father and sister and I had dinner, and the housekeeper came to report that there was a monk at the door, claiming to be Zen Master Huihai. My father was taken aback and hurriedly took us to check it out. When I got to the door, I saw an old monk lying on the ground, covered in blood and with a broken arm. My father had never met Huihai Zen Master, so he couldn't confirm his identity. Seeing that the monk was so badly injured, we decided to get him into the house first. ”

Hearing this, Han Tongshan slowly sat down, nodded and asked, "What happened later?"

Hu Yun continued: "I didn't expect that when I stepped forward to support the monk, he slapped me for no reason, but fortunately, he was seriously injured at the time, and he had no mana when he made the shot, so I was lucky to save my life." When my father saw that the monk had hurt me, he fought back in a hurry, but he did not expect to be killed. ”

"Ahh Han Tongshan seemed to be immersed in the scene, and couldn't help but let out a low sigh.

"Later, my father also knew that something was wrong, so he hid the old monk's body in the firewood room, and set off to Leiyin Temple to find the portrait of the Huihai monk to confirm the identity of the old monk. never expected that his father would be chased and killed all the way back by a group of unknown people. In order to save my sister and me, my father stayed alone to defend against the enemy, and let us escape from the tunnel to find you, and later, on the way to escape, my sister and I were separated, so I came alone. ”

Hu Yun deliberately concealed the Immortal Slayer Blade, because he vaguely felt in his heart that this was a bad thing, and even if he heard its name, he would be greedy. If it is based on the truth and confessed, it is difficult to guarantee that Han Tongshan will not suspect that the Immortal Killing Blade is on him, what will be the consequences? He didn't dare to think about it.
