Chapter 254: Antecedents and Consequences

"What?" Cao Zhen stood up when she heard this, raised her feet and walked to the bed.

There was a secret passage under her bed, and it was from this secret passage that Tang Zixi came out.

"Never!" Tang Zixi hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Now that Shen Yan is in his room, wouldn't you be completely exposed in the past." ”

Cao Zhen hurriedly said: "Why is Shen Yan in his room? Do you know our plan? What the hell is going on? You should tell me quickly!"

"Don't worry, he should be safe for the time being. Tang Zixi hurriedly comforted, "At that time, Shen Yan didn't know that person was Brother Chu. Now it is only a suspicion at most, and the auspicious time is approaching, he will not hurt Brother Chu. ”

Cao Zhen sat down distraught and said, "Tell me carefully from beginning to end, his disappearance is a day and a night, and I am going crazy." ”

"Okay!" Tang Zixi nodded and slowly started from the beginning.

It turned out that not long after the two entered the tunnel, Shen Yan led someone to catch up. Fortunately, the tunnel was not long, and Chu Anchen quickly took Tang Zixi out of the tunnel. The speed of Shen Yan and the others was not slow, and they almost drilled out of the front and back feet.

Chu Anchen only had time to hide Tang Zixi behind the long grass, so he handed over to them. Fortunately, he was prepared in advance, put on a masked scarf, and made some disguises in other places, otherwise he would have been recognized by Shen Yan at a glance.

After the two sides fought each other, although all the people brought by Shen Yan died, Chu Anchen didn't please him. Not only was he slapped in the body, but he was also shot by Shen Yan's dart when he turned around and fled. If it weren't for Tang Zixi's bad opportunity, he took out the small bow and crossbow in his arms and shot several arrows in a row to resist the block, I am afraid that he would have been killed by Shen Yan in the palm of his hand. However, in this way, Tang Zixi, who was hiding in the long grass, was also discovered, and Shen Yan suddenly abandoned Chu Anchen and rushed towards Tang Zixi instead.

At this critical juncture, a person flew down from a tree not far away and fought with Shen Yan. Chu Anchen saw the opportunity, scooped up Tang Zixi and ran. However, he did not run directly back to the stockade, but continued to run deep into the dense forest. First, of course, it was to avoid Shen Yan from catching up again, and secondly, he didn't want to expose his identity.

The two of them hid in the dense forest until nightfall, Chu Anchen took Tang Zixi directly back to the cross-courtyard where he lived, and took advantage of the change of guard to climb over the wall and exchange with the person who pretended to be drunk and bedridden in the house. Who knew that just when Tang Zixi was about to leave, Shen Yan suddenly came in person.

In a hurry, Chu Anchen had no choice but to use the secret passage that Cao Zhen had told him. Fortunately, he sent someone to inform Cao Zhen secretly as soon as he came back, otherwise Tang Zixi suddenly appeared in her room, and it would be strange not to be regarded as a thief.

“...... Fortunately, that person came to the rescue, otherwise Brother Chu and I would have died there. Tang Zixi stopped here and turned his gaze to Cao Zhen, "That person is extraordinary, and the timing of his appearance is just right, could it be that the owner of the village arranged it?"

Cao Zhen shook her head and said, "I don't know who he is." If it weren't for Brother Chu sending someone to inform me, I don't know if he was disguised in the dungeon, how could he send someone to pick you up. ”

"You don't know?" Tang Zixi said in surprise, "That's weird." Who is he? But just know that he's friend or foe. By the way, Brother Chu wants me to tell you, he suspects that Shen Yan is a Black Rakshasa person, and he wants you to be more careful for a while!"

"Black Rakshasa!" Cao Zhen's face instantly turned pale, and the most talked about in the cottage recently was the fact that the Black Rakshasa had driven out the group of martial arts people who didn't know whether they were alive or dead. And just yesterday, the Black Rakshasa was still at the foot of the Black Tiger Village, slaughtering all the people in the Wild Wolf Village, and did not even leave a whole corpse, and the means can be described as extremely ruthless.

She grabbed the edge of the table and tried to control her emotions, and said, "Our Black Tiger Village and his well water do not interfere with the river water, and we have not done anything to provoke him. This Black Rakshasa won't be idle enough to get along with our little Black Tiger Village. ”

"I don't know. Tang Zixi shook his head and said, "Brother Chu said that he had examined those corpses, and on the surface, whether it was the method of killing or the weapons used, it looked like the style of the Black Rakshasa . But it was precisely because of this that he suspected that someone was to blame. And he saw with his own eyes that Shen Yan had a mocking smile on his face when he heard his henchman's return. ”

Cao Zhen frowned and said, "Just because of this, you can't judge that he is the person of the Black Rakshasa ." ”

Tang Zixi nodded and said, "I said the same at the time, but Brother Chu said that he had his own way to make Shen Yan show his fox tail." You can prepare for the worship with peace of mind. ”

Cao Zhen didn't settle down when she heard this, but sighed deeply and said, "In order to find out the truth about my father's murder, Brother Chu did not hesitate to risk his life to go deep into the dungeon, and almost lost his life, I really, I really don't know how to repay him." ”

Tang Zixi couldn't help but say, "Aren't you going to visit the church later?"

Cao Zhen couldn't help but smile when she heard this, and said, "The girl misunderstood, this is just a plan we discussed." I know in my heart what I look like and what I id, where I am worthy of Brother Chu. And I just want to keep the Black Tiger Village left by my father in my life, and I never want to get married. Speaking of this, her eyes dimmed slightly, but she quickly returned to normal, and her gaze turned to Tang Zixi and said, "As far as I know, that dungeon is heavily guarded, how did you get in? ”

Although Shen Yan has always been in charge of that dungeon, Cao Zhen doesn't know who is locked up inside. But she is also the master of a village, and she still knows what will happen if she enters the dungeon, not to mention the lack of arms and legs, a beating is inevitable. And Tang Zixi was not only weaker, but there were no scars on her body, which made her have to wonder.

"This ......" Tang Zixi was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and hesitated, "You may not believe it when you say it, and I don't know how I got in." I just fainted when I passed down the mountain, and when I woke up, I was already in the dungeon. Only then did I meet Xu Qingyuan, Senior Xu, and Brother Chu. ”

"What?" Cao Zhen's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief, "Mr. Xu's dart head and his old man are really locked up in the dungeon?' No wonder, no wonder ......" She suddenly hammered her fist on the table, shaking the tea cup on the table, and her eyes were murderous, "At the beginning, Shen Yan lied to me that Mr. Xu's dart head had returned to Jiangnan." ”

Tang Zixi looked at her mouth open and didn't speak, she really didn't know how to tell her, Xu Qingyuan not only did not return to Jiangnan, but was also tortured by Shen Yan to the point that no one is a ghost or a ghost, and now I am afraid that it is also more auspicious.

I only heard Cao Zhen say: "A few months ago, Mr. Xu's dart head came to me, saying that their dart was robbed in Tiger Hill. For the sake of so many years of friendship, let me send someone to find him for him, and as a reward for his willingness to give away all the belongings in the dart cart, he only needs one of the paintings called "Autumn Eyes". Originally, I didn't take it seriously, thinking that I had not received less money from them for so many years, so I immediately patted my chest and agreed. ”

"Isn't it "Mountains and Rivers"?" Tang Zixi on the side muttered quietly.

However, Cao Zhen obviously didn't hear her words, and said to herself: "Everything went unusually smoothly, and the dart car was quickly found by my people in a cave. Mr. Xu fulfilled his promise and only took the painting with him, leaving all his belongings in the Black Tiger Village. The brothers, of course, were very happy, and they all praised the brother who had found the cave first. Unexpectedly, the brother disappeared that night. I didn't pay much attention to the reward when I received it, thinking that he had made enough money and left, after all, I gave him a fifth of my possessions in front of everyone. It wasn't until Brother Chu suddenly appeared that I knew that the brother had already been killed and thrown into the mountain stream. Although his body had been bitten to pieces by the beast, I recognized it at a glance. Because his right hand was wounded, only two fingers remained. This is not what shocked me the most, what shocked me the most was that Brother Chu said that my father did not die of illness at all, but was deliberately killed, and he seemed to know that he would die, so he had already sent someone to the Tibetan Sword Villa to inform Brother Chu. It's a pity that it didn't happen that Brother Chu went to the East China Sea and has returned so far. ”

She seemed to be very thirsty after saying so many words in one breath, and she lifted the teapot on the table and poured it out violently before continuing: "After Brother Chu's secret investigation, it was found that Shen Yan was the most suspicious. But that Shen Yan is too old and cunning, not only has he won the trust of the brothers in the village, but also the other mountains also have a faint meaning of taking him as the leader. We don't dare to touch him until we have conclusive evidence. Brother Chu proposed, simply say that the two of us have had a marriage contract since childhood, and he came to marry me home this time on the orders of his parents. First, I can let Shen Yan relax my vigilance, and secondly, I can secretly invite those uncles and uncles who have a good relationship with my father to witness together, and if necessary, I can also serve as a helper......"

"I know he's not a good person, why don't you just kill him? Can't so many of us beat him?" A voice suddenly came, and then the door was pushed open, and Xiao Yu, who was holding a large porcelain bowl, appeared at the door with an angry face.

"Xiaoyu!" Cao Zhen was obviously a little flustered when she saw Xiaoyu suddenly appear, and looked behind her vigilantly.

Xiao Yu walked in and slammed the bowl on the table, and said, "Don't worry, all those outside have been sent away by me." ”

Cao Zhen said: "Send them away?"

Xiao Yu pursed her lips and said, "I just invited them to drink a jar of wine." Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he said, "Why didn't you tell me when so many things happened?
