Chapter 034: Frightened Rainy Night (3)
Qiu Lifeng got up, and while quietly checking the surrounding situation, he asked, "What do you mean by this?"
Bai Luoshang also stood up and explained: "They are acquaintances, this person originally came to kill another person, but he didn't expect that the other party would take the lead in making a move. It's just that this man died strangely. ”
The wound was not large, the blood did not flow much, and there were no other wounds to be seen, but the man was dying.
The most likely reason for such a strange death is......
"Poisoning. Qiu Lifeng said unhurriedly, "He died of poisoning, and he died quickly, and he didn't suffer too much." ”
Bai Luoshang pressed his hands on the table, "Since you were hit with a knife, why do you want to poison it?"
Qiu Lifeng said: "Because the murderer used a poisoned weapon." ”
Bai Luoshang said nervously: "A poisoned weapon?"
Qiu Lifeng shook his head and said: "It's not a hidden weapon, but a kind of fast knife, a fast knife with poisonous fangs." ”
"Fangs?"
"That's right, the same fangs as a viper. ”
After speaking, Qiu Lifeng squatted down again and peeled off Gu Kongyin's scattered hair.
Through the faint light, you can clearly see the black and swollen blood vessels on his neck, hideous, terrifying, and chilling.
Qiu Lifeng pulled out his dagger and cut a knife on the back of Gu Kongyin's hand.
The wound was long and deep, but the blood did not come out.
Bai Luoshang felt that his heart was beating very violently, and subconsciously wiped his neck, and suddenly felt a chill attack, like a basin of ice water poured down from his head, making his breath almost stuck in his throat, and it took a long time to pick up his voice, and asked dryly: "Is this ......?"
"A hundred sorrows. Qiu Lifeng said coldly, "Once this venom enters the blood vessels, it can make the blood of the whole body coagulate in a very short time. ”
Bai Luoshang looked at the wound on Gu Kongyin's neck and said in a low voice: "That's why there is not a lot of blood in his wound." ”
Qiu Lifeng nodded, "After the blood clots, even if you cut him, you won't see a drop of blood flowing out." ”
Therefore, the back of Gu Kongyin's hand did not bleed.
Bai Luoshang suddenly felt a little disgusted, and he didn't want to look at Gu Kongyin again, "What kind of weapon did that person use? ”
Qiu Lifeng replied: "The weapon used by that man is a weapon that is more terrible than a poisonous snake, and Bai Fuchou is also a poison that is even more poisonous than a poisonous snake. ”
And the person who can use such weapons and poisons, I am afraid that there will be no second person in the world.
Qiu Lifeng didn't continue to say it, because he didn't need to say more.
Bai Luoshang felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and if she was any person, she would not feel happy when she encountered this situation.
"This murderer, is it the purpose of your trip?" Bai Luoshang looked at Qiu Lifeng, her eyes shining in the dim candle flame.
"Not really. Qiu Lifeng replied truthfully.
"Then does he also have something to do with the Banquet Studio?"
"Yes. ”
"What's the relationship?"
"He used to be a Shadow Warrior. ”
Bai Luoshang rubbed his temples and said in a low voice: "No wonder his skills are so treacherous, so which one is more powerful compared to Lou Qianyun?"
"I don't know about this person's skills and cultivation. Qiu Lifeng said coldly, "But judging from the wounds of this dead man, it is not difficult to see that the murderer is not only very good at quick knives, but also has a lot of experience. ”
Bai Luoshang was taken aback and wondered: "You want to say that the murderer is an extremely experienced knife man? However, how can a knife man leave the knife wound in the arm instead of other more deadly places? Since it is a surprise blow, the chance of success is greater, in this case, the location of the knife wound should not be just in a place like the arm." ”
The neck, chest and abdomen are generally considered the most lethal targets.
Listening to Bai Luosheng's question, Qiu Lifeng was silent. However, Bai Luoshang soon figured out the reason.
The reason why the knife wound remained in his arm was because Gu Kongyin's skills were good, and when he was attacked, he dodged the fatal attack, but even so, he finally died because of this not serious knife wound. It's just that he died of poison.
The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the air was getting more and more stuffy, and the earthy smell in the rain had completely covered the faint bloody smell in the house.
Bai Luoshang retreated to the door, looking at the crackling rain outside the house and worried, "Are we going to report to the official now, go back to the inn, or stay here and wait for the rain to stop?"
Qiu Lifeng said: "Maybe we should wait for someone here." ”
Bai Luoshang said strangely: "Who are we waiting for here?"
Qiu Lifeng said indifferently: "Murderer." ”
Bai Luoshang's eyes widened, "How do you know he'll be back?"
Qiu Lifeng said quietly: "Because he has nowhere to go." ”
Whether it was waiting for the rain or waiting for someone, he couldn't go out for a while, so Bai Luoshang simply found a place to sit down.
The clothes that were already soaked were really uncomfortable to wear, and the wound on his back was soaked in the rain, so he simply took off his clothes, anyway, it was too dark around, and he was not afraid of being discovered by Qiu Lifeng.
After taking off his clothes, Bai Luoshang slowly asked, "The person you came to see me is the murderer?"
Qiu Lifeng nodded.
Bai Luoshang said again: "Why did you bring me to see him?"
Qiu Lifeng said: "Because I need to borrow his face." ”
Bai Luoshang was surprised: "You want me to pretend to be that person?"
Qiu Lifeng said: "That's right. ”
"Why are you pretending to be him?"
"I don't want to talk about that. ”
Bai Luoshang glared at Qiu Lifeng's tall nose fiercely, and said dissatisfiedly: "You don't plan to tell me?"
Qiu Lifeng said indifferently: "I don't plan." ”
"You should at least tell me what I'm trying to do by pretending to be this person. ”
"You don't have to be very clear. ”
"Shouldn't I know?"
"It shouldn't. ”
"Even if I had to know, you wouldn't tell?"
"Won't say. ”
Bai Luoshang sighed helplessly, Qiu Lifeng had a face with a perfect contour that was impeccable, and at the same time had a mouth that was so annoying that it was unbearable. Bai Luosheng's favorite is Qiu Lifeng's face, and what he doesn't like the most is Qiu Lifeng's temper, but even if he doesn't like it, he is helpless.
Qiu Lifeng's eyes are clear but bottomless.
Bai Luoshang felt that Qiu Lifeng's eyes were hiding many secrets, although they were deliberately hidden, they were not hidden deeply, as long as Bai Luoshang was willing to think about it seriously with his brain, he could always see through those secrets.
"Since you won't explain anything to me, why should I help you?" Bai Luoshang said helplessly.
"Because you have to help me. Qiu Lifeng said very calmly.
"Why do I have to help you?" Bai Luosheng raised an eyebrow, "I don't think I have any reason to help you. ”
"There's a reason, because you've already drunk the wine I gave you. ”
“...... It turns out that the eldest prince's wine is not something that can be drunk casually. Bai Luoshang rolled his eyelids and said sourly, "I didn't expect that when you were also valid, it was just a jar of wine, and you still had to negotiate terms with me." ”
Qiu Lifeng's face did not change and said: "My brother is a good account, not to mention that we have nothing to do with each other." ”
"Aren't you a friend?"
"When are we friends?"
"Never. Bai Luoshang gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, I won't drink your wine in vain." I've got a silver ticket, and I'll pay for that jar of wine you sent, okay?"
Qiu Lifeng didn't think about it: "No." ”
Bai Luoshang said loudly: "Why not?"
Qiu Lifeng said coldly: "Because you can't afford it." ”
Bai Luoshang twisted his eyebrows, "That jar of wine is very expensive?"
Qiu Lifeng nodded, "It's expensive." ”
Bai Luoshang asked unconvinced, "How expensive can it be?"
Qiu Lifeng sneered: "It's so expensive that you can't afford it." ”
Bai Luoshang snorted disdainfully and said, "No matter how expensive it is, there is always a price, you can bid." ”
Qiu Lifeng expected that Bai Luoshang had no money, so he asked for the price: "One hundred taels."
Bai Luoshang glared at him and said, "Are you a robber?"
Qiu Lifeng smiled and said, "You think I look like a robber?"
Bai Luoshang said coldly: "If it weren't for a robber, how could a jar of wine cost a hundred taels?"
Qiu Lifeng smiled and sarcastically said, "It's one hundred taels, can you afford it?"
Bai Luoshang was not angry, but smiled proudly and took out a stack of silver tickets from his clothes.
Although he hadn't counted it himself, Qiu Lifeng could see that the silver ticket in Bai Luosheng's hand was at least one or two thousand.
He had almost never seen so much money on Bai Luosheng, and he was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Did you go out to steal something?"
Bai Luoshang laughed angrily, "Can I only steal?"
Qiu Lifeng looked at him, "Aside from stealing things, I really can't think of any other way for you to get so much money." ”
Bai Luoshang glared at him heavily, and said word by word: "This was given to me by someone else, and it was stolen, not stolen." ”
Qiu Lifeng obviously didn't believe it, "Someone else sent it again?"
Someone just gave a white horse, and now someone is giving a silver ticket?
How could all the good things in the world fall on him.
Bai Luoshang rolled her eyes and said, "What do you mean by 'someone else sent it again'?
Qiu Lifeng asked rhetorically, "Don't you often 'send'?"
He can also accentuate the colloquial pronunciation of the word "send", which is meaningful and intriguing.
Bai Luoshang had a lazy expression on her face, and said sullenly: "Anyway, I didn't steal it." ”
Qiu Lifeng hit the nail on the head and said: "Even if it's not stealing, it must be a fraud." ”
Bai Luoshang is sad and understands: "I'm so bad?"
Qiu Lifeng asked, "Aren't you bad?"
Bai Luoshang didn't want to say more, so she took out a silver ticket casually and said arrogantly: "I don't want to talk to you, one hundred taels, I bought the wine." ”
Qiu Lifeng didn't pick it up.
Bai Luoshang raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Are you too much?"
Qiu Lifeng didn't look at the silver ticket, and said in a tone that was colder than Bai Luoshang's voice: "It was too much, but now it's too little." ”
Bai Luoshang stared at her eyes and couldn't help asking, "Why?"
Qiu Lifeng said as a matter of course: "Since your silver is easy to come by, you naturally have to give more." ”
Bai Luoshang blinked and said, "How much do you want?"
Qiu Lifeng glanced at the stack of silver tickets in Bai Luosheng's hand, and said coldly: "I want as much as you have." ”
Bai Luoshang also smiled and said, "It turns out that you are really a robber." ”
Qiu Lifeng refused to tell Bai Luosheng the true purpose of bringing him to see the Shadow Dead Soldier, but Bai Luoshang could still guess some possibilities.
First of all, what Qiu Lifeng needs is that person's face, which means that that person's face can do something that others can't.
Secondly, that murderer is the same as Lou Qianyun Yanying old man, that is to say, the purpose of Qiu Lifeng's trip should at least be inevitably related to Yanying Building.
In the end, this matter must have been directly ordered and executed by Xiao Ying, the monarch of the Qianzhu Kingdom.
There is another point, which is also what Bai Luoshang cares about the most.
Gu Kongyin ran here to kill people, could it be that Shangguan Moyun also has something to do with Yanying Building?
