Let's say that Liu Qing tried his best to restrain his emotions, suppressed his body's instinctive disgust, and carefully ran around the Shangguan Mansion to investigate, as if he wanted to find some clues, so as to explore the reasons and truth behind the matter, and find out the mastermind behind the murder case.

I saw that most of the dead soldiers on the ground were wearing ordinary pale yellow clothes, looking like miscellaneous servants in the courtyard, and some of the practitioners in red cloth coats still held swords, sticks and weapons in their hands, thinking that they were the guards and warriors in the palace. Liu Qing deliberately paid attention to their injuries: although the flesh and blood on the corpses were blurred and devastated, there was only one truly fatal wound, if it was not a sword piercing the throat, it would be a knife that would break the artery, and then it would be shattered by the internal strength similar to the "Mighty King Kong Finger", and the body would die of blood...... In other words, the murderer used a very neat way to take their lives and then torture them with whipping, deliberately leaving the corpse full of holes and skin, so as to cover up some unknown secrets.

But the more detailed the observation, the more in-depth the understanding, and the more careful the consideration, the more frightened Liu Qing became, and doubts kept coming to his heart, thinking: "Looking at the rivers and lakes, Shangguan Jingnan's martial arts are outstanding, and few people can match them, so it is speculated that the martial artists of Shangguan Mansion must also have some skills, but how could they be slaughtered overnight?" "Where is Shangguan Jingnan now?" This murder is bound to have something to do with the events of last night, those night walkers came prepared, and they planned and decided, and it is estimated that they have been planning for a long time?" "The other one is the most suspicious, according to common sense, such a large-scale fight, of course, the two sides will damage each other, but so far, why haven't they seen a corpse dressed in a night-shaped clothes? Could it be ......?" Liu Qing checked and thought at the same time, and had already walked half of the mansion while speaking, except for some small discoveries, he did not get any valuable clues, let alone found a live mouth to cross-examine and question, Liu Qing was sad, but also a little frustrated.

The architectural style of Shangguan Mansion is dominated by "moderation" and is magnificent. The main hall is in the center, according to the way of the axis, the east and west are symmetrical, the north and south echo, and the flower courtyard is placed at the back of the main hall, which is communicated by a caryophyllus path, and the deployment is elegant and quiet. Liu Qingxin said: "I have completed the inspection of the east side of the house, although I have found nothing, but I can't give up." Now I walked to the backyard, and when I came out, I turned west, and I just took a detour to the mansion for a week, and there was nothing missing. ”

After making up his mind, Liu Qing crossed the bamboo path and went to the backyard. Although it is winter at the moment, there is no green spring scene, but there are red and white snow beauties, standing proudly in this cold wind, overflowing with fragrance, embellished with a simple and elegant, picturesque scenery, there is a unique charm.

Exactly: trembling among the flowers, fragrant and fragrant.

At this moment, how could Liu Qing have the heart to taste tea and drink wine and enjoy plum blossoms? But when he saw him push open the screen, hurriedly walk across the path, step through the arched Caiyuan Gate, and come to the backyard, he found seven or eight black-clothed masked men dressed in clothes and hats, completely different from before, lying in a pool of blood! Next to him, another middle-aged man in a richly dressed hairpin robe was lying on the ground, shaking his body, and there seemed to be signs of life.

Liu Qing was surprised, overjoyed, and hurriedly rushed over, wanting to step forward to ask what was going on. When he was about three feet away from this person, all of a sudden, the middle-aged man had already volleyed into the air, poked out his palms, and pounced on Liu Qing's ribs with a move of "Eagle Strike Fighting Rabbit", carrying the wind like the wind!

Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, surprised and needless to say, in a hurry, he hurriedly dodged, and at the same time hugged his arms together, sealing the empty door under his ribs, and protecting it very properly. I only listened to the middle-aged man's "hum" sneer, and suddenly changed his moves, his palms were like a dragon going to sea, intertwined, powerful and strong, so that it was the vertical and horizontal Jiang and Jiangxi areas, the famous Zhu family "turned the cloud palm", I saw him change his palm into a fist, spread his fist into a palm, and between a turn and a harvest, it seemed that he had the ability to cover the sky with one hand, and the ability to turn over the clouds and rain, outflanking the two wings, and hitting Liu Qing's temple from the side, the shot was ruthless, and one move could put people to death!

This sudden change was, of course, not expected by Liu Qing. Liu Qing was trying to perform a light skill and avoid this hard blow, but found that it was too late, the middle-aged man's ingenious changes, amazing strength, and palm wind like a bamboo, had sealed Liu Qing's retreat, no matter who it was, he didn't want to take a step back!

Fist and foot grappling, hand-to-hand combat, is not Liu Qing's strong point, not to mention that the two are quite close, and the middle-aged man's exquisite fist and foot skills have added another layer of assistance.

Liu Qing was very angry, and hated in his heart: "I have no grievances with this person, why is he so vicious, he has to take my life? He is not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous!"

Listening to the "sonorous" sound, Liu Qing drew his sword with lightning speed, and the "glimpse" was like a divine help, piercing the heart of the middle-aged man. Since the middle-aged man spread his arms wide, his fists detoured from the flanks, and he struck Liu Qing with a high spirit, then the key point in his middle was the weakest link in the defense.

Although Liu Qing made the second move, but after all, he held the sword blade, one inch long, one inch strong, and the latter could come first, if neither of them accepted the move, the next situation would be like this: Liu Qing's sharp blade first pierced the heart of the middle-aged man, when the chest passed;

But when Liu Qing was in danger, the swordsmanship that made this Xiangtan "Tibetan Sword Villa" famous all over the world was a last resort, and it belonged to the remedy in the defeat move, and the ruined boat under the end of the road, just because he avoided and couldn't avoid it, and couldn't stop it, so he had to make this strategy, desperate betting, betting on whether the middle-aged man would fight with his life, and then make variables;

I only heard the middle-aged man's startled voice, and after quickly retreating, he immediately returned his palm, and with a "snap" sound, he had clamped the sword body, and his body borrowed the power of his palm, jumped high, and his left leg suddenly stretched out, and kicked Liu Qing's right shoulder. When the middle-aged man regressed, he did not forget to exert resistance to prevent Liu Qing from taking advantage of the situation to attack, which was really scheming and very human.

Seeing a kick flying, I don't know why, Liu Qing couldn't dodge, and was about to make another plan, but he was kicked squarely, his shoulders were sore for a while, his palm and sword shook non-stop, and he was uncomfortable to control. Liu Qingxin said: "This person is so strong in internal strength! I can't bear any kick." When I was fighting with him, I was passive everywhere, falling behind, and even what he did with his bare hands, it was really incredible, who was he?" I only heard the middle-aged man scolding: "Dog thief, don't have that sweet dream again, if you teach grandpa to surrender and present a secret letter, it will be like a dream!

Liu Qing waved his hand and hurriedly said: "It's okay to be slow, I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding in the middle!" The middle-aged man was empty, looked closely, carefully looked at Liu Qing's appearance and clothing, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and coughed: "Isn't it an accomplice of the Bloody Clothes Gate?" The voice is rough and strong, and the inner kung fu is perfect, but there is a slight trembling in the voice, and the middle qi in the dantian is insufficient, and I am afraid that he has suffered a very serious internal injury. Sure enough, as soon as the words were finished, a mouthful of blood gushed out of the middle-aged man and suddenly fell to the ground.

Liu Qing exclaimed, hurriedly put the sword into the sheath, and flew over, wanting to help the middle-aged man, and said as he walked: "Of course, I am not with this man in black. ”

Blood splashed the corners of the middle-aged man's mouth, but he didn't care, he talked to himself, laughed loudly: "I don't want my Shangguan Jingnan to crisscross the rivers and lakes for a lifetime, today I will die in my own yard like this, and end up like this, haha, haha......" The laughter was tragic and poignant, and it was really unwilling. Liu Qing was surprised: "The predecessor is Shangguan Jingnan?" and thought: "No wonder he has such superb skills." The man said: "Can there be a fake? But who are you, how could you run to my mansion, what do you do kid?" Liu Qing said: "The younger generation's surname is Liu, and his single name is a green character." I wanted to go to your mansion today, make a war letter, set up a good day, and ask my seniors for a few tricks, but I didn't want to encounter such a thing!"

After hearing Liu Qing's answer, Shangguan Jingnan's decadent and helpless eyes suddenly flashed with light, like a dazzling meteor in the night, crossing the sky, and listening to him: "Are you a descendant who has risen in the rivers and lakes in recent years?" Liu Qing said: "Don't dare to be, it's really worse than your predecessors." But I don't know what happened to your mansion? Who did this?"

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Jingnan's face was like ashes, his eyes were dull, and he was filled with fear, and he heard him say in a trembling voice: "Blood...... Bloody Clothes Gate, yes...... Bloody Door. ”

Liu Qing frowned and said, "Bloody Clothes Gate?" Shangguan was about to open his lips to reply, but he didn't want another mouthful of blood to gush out, soaking the purple robe into red. Liu Qing hurriedly helped Shangguan Jingnan up sideways, and after taking his pulse, he realized that his internal organs had been destroyed by a huge external force, and I was afraid that there was no hope of recovery. When Liu Qing was sad, he hurriedly stretched out his fingers to seal the "Chengman Acupoint" on his umbilicus, the "Sun Moon Acupoint" under his breast, the "Quchi Acupoint" in his arm socket, and the "Qihai Acupoint" in the lower dantian to stop bleeding and relieve pain.

After a long time, Shangguan Jingnan was able to speak: "Based on the age of the kid, you must not know, right? When the bloody clothes gate swept through the martial arts, it is estimated that you have not yet been born, and even if you are born, you are only wearing open crotch pants." Liu Qing said embarrassedly: "This ...... I also hope that the seniors will watch one or two on demand. ”

ascend to heaven and earth,

Omnipotent.

disregard one's own safety

Just for the money.

Heaven and earth,

Only enslaved by money.

without restraint

Everyone is worried.

Shangguan Jingnan continued: "This bloody clothes door...... It can also be regarded as the most mysterious and vicious, tyrannical and cruel vendetta and assassination organization on the rivers and lakes, as long as you are willing to pay, no matter who it is, they can find a way to help you get rid of it. If you want them to kill their parents, wives and children, as long as they take out the money, they will happily promise not to frown. ”

Liu Qing was moved, and was about to cut off, but he heard Shangguan Jingnan continue: "The mystery of the Bloody Clothes Gate is difficult to guess, and in the world, who can know what kind of powerful power the Bloody Clothes Gate has, and how many elite killers it has? As for where their main altar is and who the leader is, it is even more unknown. ”

"They naturally have extremely strict discipline, precision beyond ordinary people, and straightforward means, so that they can do the task without leakage, and they have never disappointed their customers...... I heard that even the paid envoys took over with the cronies and foreign officials of the Bloody Clothes Gate, the process was extremely complicated, and there were many processes, and their internal affairs were almost unknown. ”

Liu Qing was full of suspicion and wanted to interrupt again, but he heard Shangguan Jingnan gasp and say, "One line...... There is a line of insiders, and there are ways to avoid the eyes and ears and reach the dirty deal...... Moreover, before each operation, the Bloody Clothes Gate will make detailed deployments, careful planning, and be prepared...... He...... The people they killed were never ordinary people, they must be the number one people in the rivers and lakes, so ...... The salary they ask for is naturally sky-high. Can you afford it...... Such a person with silver taels is probably not an ordinary person. ”

When Liu Qing heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore, and thought: "Didn't the seniors break their heads and get confused?" If such a powerful organization is unheard of, why is it unheard of and unseen? Why are there very few rumors about the Bloody Clothes Gate in the rivers and lakes? Why does the imperial court sit idly by? Don't put it aside for the time being, how can you turn a blind eye to Shaolin Wudang alone?"

Shangguan Jingnan let out a long laugh, and his laughter was full of disdain and contempt. But this kind of laughter made the echo in the quiet backyard echo at the same time, but also shook his heart, making the cough more intense. He knew that he was hopeless, but he was much calmer, shook his head and said: "After all, the kid is still a young man, since ancient times, 'Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate the ban'. ”

"As for those famous and upright families, all of them hold high the banner of benevolence and righteousness, and are well-known in the martial arts, but which faction is willing to exert all their strength, pour out of the nest, and fight to the end with the bloody clothes gate? When the majesty is no longer great, how can they compete with other sects? How can they abandon the foundation of the ancestors of the past dynasties? Not to mention, if they are defeated, they will definitely be laughed at in the rivers and lakes, and even the sect will die out. The most important thing is that the whereabouts of the Bloody Clothes Gate are erratic, and no one knows where their lair is, how to fight?"

"Although the Bloody Clothes Gate has harmed the rivers and lakes a lot, it has not appeared in the rivers and lakes for at least decades...... The reason for this is unknown, and perhaps they have not been out for many years in order to plan a greater conspiracy! As for the rumors, who would dare to talk about them behind their backs? If they are not careful, they will find that their head and neck are separated from their limbs, and their heads are in different places. ”

"Alas... But I don't know what kind of incident will happen when the bloody clothes gate reappears in the rivers and lakes, and I don't expect that my Shangguan Jingnan will become the target of this bloody clothes gate, I really don't know who I offended, spent money to hire them, and killed all 131 of my Shangguan Mansion!"

The more Shangguan Jingnan spoke, the more excited he became, the more he spoke, the more indignant he became, and at the end, he said angrily: "Boy, you have a reason, my life is short, why do you want to lie to you?"

Liu Qing said: "Isn't there a group of like-minded righteous people in the rivers and lakes to investigate and destroy this organization?" Shangguan Jingnan said with a smile: "They don't look for others, others are already thankful and grateful to their ancestors for accumulating virtue, and who will ask for this trouble themselves?"

"What's more. Shangguan Jingnan used all his strength and struggled: "What's more, it is said that this Bloody Clothes Sect seems to be somewhat involved with the Wuji Sect in the Western Regions......

"The Wuji Sect of the Western Regions?" Liu Qing exclaimed, "Isn't that the Demon Sect that everyone fears?"

"Demon Sect? Why do you say Demon Sect? The word Demon Sect is just nonsense for children in the market. Right and wrong, good and evil, who can tell clearly and clearly?" Shangguan Jingnan spurted out a large mouthful of bright red blood and coughed: "Ahem...... A hundred years ago, the Wuji Sect of the Western Regions did have a large-scale conflict with our Central Plains Martial Arts, and there were countless casualties on both sides. But why don't we have our own reasons? We see them as a demon cult, so what do they think of us?"

Isn't it true of ———— many things, and when you hate and hate others, what is their attitude towards you?

Liu Qing was silent.

Shangguan Jingnan said again: "The Wuji Sect in the Western Regions, I don't know how many years I haven't stepped into the Central Plains...... However, their unique martial arts are bizarre, evil and vicious, which still makes us fearful...... Since the Bloody Clothes Gate has reappeared in the rivers and lakes, I don't know that this Western Regions is infinite...... Will it get involved...... Central Plains Martial Arts ...... Do you want to ...... Whip up a rain of blood?"

Shangguan Jingnan's pale face did not have the slightest blood, and it took a long time before he said intermittently: "If the bloody clothes are ...... It's really the same as the Western Regions...... There are still some implications, if they are implicated...... , if you want to remove the bloody door, it is difficult to ...... Ascend to the sky. ”

Liu Qing clenched his fists, the green tendons on his fists were prominent, and the joints crackled as he heard him say loudly: "There will be someone after all!" There will definitely be someone who is willing to come forward and eradicate the bloody clothes door and eliminate the harm to the rivers and lakes!"

Shangguan Jingnan smiled faintly, and his face was filled with a happy smile: "Young man...... It is only up to you young people, who are as passionate as fire and have justice in their hearts, and if anyone can eradicate the bloody clothes in the future, it will be you!"

———— it is precisely because of the existence of young people like Liu Qing that the rivers and lakes can always maintain the color of integrity and chivalry.

———— rivers and lakes can never lack young people, just as there can never be no birds in the sky.

Shangguan Jingnan's eyes narrowed and slowly opened, and his eyes suddenly had the vitality of youth, as if he had returned to many years ago, when he was still a teenager full of hopes and dreams.

————Is he reminiscing? Is it that everyone who is about to die will suddenly remember the sweetness and warmth of the past?

"Are you willing?" Shangguan Jingnan said weakly: "Are you willing to investigate and destroy this evil organization for the sake of the rivers and lakes...... Do you want to eliminate the harm?" Liu Qing hated: "The younger generation must do their best to fight to the end against the Bloody Clothes Gate, avenge the dead people of the predecessors and the Shangguan Mansion, and eliminate the harm for the rivers and lakes!"

"Good, good...... Liu Qing, what a good young man!" Shangguan Jingnan smiled and kept muttering, as if there were crystal tears rolling down———— was that a tear of happiness? Who can understand Shangguan Jingnan's mood at this time?

Liu Qing said: "Seniors, don't talk anymore, be careful and impact your heart again." The younger generation will carry you out of the house and set up a legal injury. Shangguan Jingnan grabbed Liu Qing's sleeve and said, "It's useless, my intestines are ...... has been shattered, even if the "Peach Blossom Valley" Du Divine Doctor is reincarnated, I am afraid that he will not be able to return to heaven and will not be able to save my life. At this moment, I have relied on years of internal cultivation and strong perseverance, and I have barely struggled until now, and I have not breathed for a long time, just to ...... Deliver your ...... I've ...... There's not much time left, right now...... Now I have one thing to tell you, you must ...... Be sure to keep it in mind. As he spoke, he reached into the inner compartment of his garment, and found a mutilated secret letter, the envelope stained red with blood.

Before Liu Qing could understand, Shangguan Jingnan had already stuffed the letter into Liu Qing's hand, held Liu Qing's hand tightly, and said, "This secret letter is from ...... Recovered from the men in black. After saying that, he pointed to the man in black who was lying in a pool of blood over there, and said: "This time the bloody clothes gate is back in the rivers and lakes, there may be a huge conspiracy, in this secret letter...... Recorded their next ...... Where the plan is, you ...... Be sure to stop them...... If the situation changes, you can also go straight to Jiangnan to find the unparalleled ...... in the world Ouyang ...... Lingfeng Hero, with ...... You can't be their opponent on your own...... Hands, remember, remember, as for ...... As for the ...... that is widely distributed throughout the world Invitation, tomorrow...... On the 28th of the lunar month, the heroes of the world should gather in the Luoyang Grottoes...... I'm afraid it's ......"

Shangguan Jingnan couldn't support it anymore, his eyes were wide open, and he spit out like a dead fish, and it was difficult to say a word. Liu Qing saw that Shangguan Jingnan had less breath and more breath, so he knew that he couldn't delay it anymore, and was about to leave behind him, but he heard a human voice behind him.

"How can there be a living mouth?" the voice was poignant and harsh, like

Liu Qing suddenly turned his head, but saw four black-clothed masked men lined up, staring at Liu Qing. On the far left is a thin and dry firewood, with a figure like a bamboo pole, about three feet taller than a normal person, and a bundle of long whips coiled around his waist; near him is a dwarf, holding a judge's life-killing pen in his hand, I am afraid that he is a master of acupuncture; followed by a big man with a big biao shape, extremely fat, and carrying a mourning knife in his hand; and the man on the far right is of normal stature, holding a pair of dragon and phoenix rings.

The martial arts of the four must not be weak, and they came behind Liu Qing quietly without a shadow, but Liu Qing didn't notice it in the slightest. Although these people are all dressed in the same way, they are extremely tall, short, fat and thin, and they stand in a row and compare them, giving people a feeling of nausea and fear.

The dwarf spoke first: "It turns out that there is a fish that slipped through the net, I don't know where he hid just now?" The fat man laughed: "It's okay, just kill another one, but this old man Shangguan's bones are tough, we have tortured him for so long, he won't say where he hid the secret letter." ”

Liu Qing heard the fat man say this, and was about to turn sideways slightly, and firmly cover the secret letter with his hand, but unexpectedly, the thin man with a quick eye, took a look, and said loudly: "The secret letter is in the young man's hand!"

The four of them shouted loudly, and attacked from the southeast, northwest, and northwest respectively, and Liu Qing was already encircled.

Exactly: the cause has not been explored in detail, and it coincides with the danger and circumstance. Ladies and gentlemen, I want to know what happens next, and let's see the next breakdown.
