Chapter 56: A Strange Disappearance

At this point, the sun had fully risen, and warm sunlight filled the room.

Through the fine dust floating in the beam, it can be clearly seen that Ni Pengcheng's handsome face at this moment is a little distorted because of anger. The cold eyes and clenched fists made it even more murderous.

The little maid only glanced at it, and then her face was as frightened as earth, and she knelt directly on the ground with a 'plop', and replied in a panic: "Miss has been lying on the bed and resting, and has never woken up." ”

Ni Pengcheng struggled to control his emotions, his clenched fists released and pinched, pinched and released. After repeating it a few times, his mind finally calmed down a bit.

He let out a long breath, turned his back to the frightened little maid, and asked in a calm tone, "Has anyone been here since I left?"

The little maid has never seen him so angry since he was bought by this son. She was genuinely frightened, and heard his tone soften. She had the courage to secretly raise her head, glanced at his slightly trembling back, and replied tremblingly, "No, no one has come!"

Ni Pengcheng turned around suddenly, and the anger that he had finally suppressed suddenly came up. He stared at the little maid closely, and his eyes flashed with a strong murderous intent: "You'd better think clearly, has anyone ever been here?"

This little maid is just a teenage girl. Where have I seen this kind of scene, I was so frightened that I cried on the spot, and sobbed: "The maid has been guarding here, and has not left for half a step, and there is really no one to come." ”

Ni Pengcheng's patience has run out: since she doesn't know anything and Xiaoxi is gone, then she is useless.

Those people around him, which one doesn't know - Miss Tang's safety is the forbidden in Shaodutong's heart, and whoever touches it is unlucky.

Ni Pengcheng stared at the person in front of him expressionlessly, and his sleeves began to be windless. Seeing that the little maid was about to be splashed with blood on the spot.

At this time, a slightly hoarse voice suddenly sounded in the house: "I don't know how to find someone right away, but here I show off my might to a little girl, what kind of hero is it." ”

"Who?" This voice seemed to have magical power, which made the angry Ni Pengcheng calm down instantly.

He looked at the frightened little girl in front of him, tears were still on his pale little face, and he felt a little guilty in his heart.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is to get Miss Tang back quickly!" the hoarse voice sounded again.

Ni Pengcheng slowly leaned against the wall, his right hand silently touched the hilt of the sword on his waist, and at the same time looked around vigilantly, but asked lightly: "How do you know where Xiaoxi is? Who are you?"

I only heard the voice and said: "If you can rush to the Guandi Temple in the west of the city within a stick of incense, maybe it's still too late." ”

Ni Pengcheng's gaze finally locked on the curtain by the window, carefully drew his long sword, and walked slowly towards that side: "Why should I believe you?"

"You can not believe it!" the voice seemed to have discovered something, and said this again.

Ni Pengcheng looked at the empty wall behind the curtain and was a little stunned.

"Ni Gongzi!" the little maid shouted timidly, and seeing Ni Pengcheng's blank look, she cautiously pointed to a note on the table, "This is what the shopkeeper brought before, and said that he would hand it over to you!"

Ni Pengcheng walked over and picked up the sticky note and unfolded it to take a look, with a sudden change in his face. Suddenly, a palm slammed on the table, shaking the teacup on the table to the ground, and one of the teacups fell directly to the ground with a crisp cracking sound.

Guandi Temple!

Ni Pengcheng, whose eyes were red, turned his head again and rushed out. When he rushed out of the gate, the women who had just arranged their clothes were once again blown into chaos by the wind he had brought with them.

After he left, a masked woman in black appeared in the empty corridor. If Miss Tang was here, she might be able to recognize that this is the female killer who saved her outside the Broken Dao Temple last time.

She looked at the direction in which Ni Pengcheng disappeared, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes. Eventually, he turned around and flew towards the other end of the corridor. Shortly after she left, a skinny monkey-like figure sneakily appeared at the entrance of the building.

......

At this time, Ni Pengcheng, who was running in the streets and alleys, also vaguely felt that something was wrong. But he didn't dare to gamble, especially Xiaoxi's life. Even if there is even the slightest hope, he will not give up.

The Guandi Temple in the west of the city, he knows. As mentioned in Du Zhongqian's information before, it was an abandoned temple, which was originally occupied by a group of beggars as a shelter. However, recently, because of the relationship of the 'Tiangang Fragment', there are suddenly many more people in the city. Not only were the inns in the city full, but as more and more people came, even many ownerless houses were occupied by some sects.

More people means more right and wrong. In addition, most of these people in the rivers and lakes are brave and competitive, and after a few words, it may be a fight. Therefore, in just a short period of time, there have been many brawls in Liangzhou City. On the barren mountain in the north of the city, there were many abandoned corpses.

In the end, a master of Liuhemen, nicknamed 'Ma Wangye', gathered these people of the three religions and nine streams together, formed a temporary alliance, and used the Guandi Temple as a stronghold. On the surface, they take care of each other, but in fact, it is to target an alliance of decent people led by the 'righteous gate'. Some people who have a bad reputation in the rivers and lakes have also gathered there in order to avoid their enemies. Nowadays, it's a real mix of people there.

And that's exactly what he couldn't figure out. According to his inference, the person who attacked Guan Ruofei was thoughtful and his martial arts were extremely high. It stands to reason that such people are generally arrogant and loner, and they will not mix with these people at all. However, the person who reminded him before pointed here unmistakably.

What does it matter?

It wasn't that he didn't doubt the purpose of that person, but for some reason, he had a very special feeling for the person who spoke. I always felt that it was someone he knew, although it wasn't right for the time being. But what he can be sure of is that the man was not without malice. However, to be on the safe side, he released the signal arrow.

As soon as he turned the corner, he heard shredded footsteps behind him.

Ni Pengcheng instructed without looking back: "Zhang Chong took two people to the 'Tongrentang' to pick up the second son." The others come with me!"

"Huh?" With a hesitant answer behind him, an angry roar came, "Dead girl, stop for Lao Tzu!"

Immediately after, the sound of breaking the sky came. Ni Pengcheng didn't have time to turn back, he directly rose into the air, grabbed the wall next to him, and jumped up. At the same time, the long sword was unsheathed, and when he raised his hand, he swung the sword.

"Oops!" came a woman's exclamation behind her, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

"Look where you're going!"

Ni Pengcheng looked back and looked at it, and just saw a big man with a pockmarked face, dragging a chain, smiling and rushing towards a figure with long hair scattered on the ground.

Ni Pengcheng flew down without hesitation, and the long sword pointed directly at the opposite door.

The pock-faced man was startled when he saw the long sword that suddenly appeared in front of him, and he didn't care about the prey that was close at hand, so he quickly rolled around a lazy donkey and dodged.

After rolling for several feet, the pock-faced man stood up against the wall. At a glance, he saw a young man in brocade clothes standing next to the girl who was strong, and he couldn't help but take a sip and said, "Another one!"
