Sun Yan, as a person who has always been in the limelight in the crowd but has always been robbed of the limelight by Fang Xiaodao recently, thinks that he is extremely important at this time. He stepped across and stood between the two and said, "Don't be impatient, you two may just be some misunderstandings, so don't hurt and be angry." ”

Fang Xiaodao said unrelentingly: "What kind of misunderstanding, how can it not be too much to hold a torch in the middle of the night to take care of our wishful thinking." Even if I don't care, a woman's honor is more important than life. ”

Sun Yan turned around and said: "Xiaodao, don't be unforgiving, Brother Zhang must be unintentional." ”

These two people sang and harmonized, aiming to talk about this matter to death and say that Zhang Gong was at fault. In fact, Sun Yan was just helping Fang Xiaodao with his own selfishness, and he didn't know what was going on. Even Xiao Ying didn't understand why Fang Xiaodao did this, as if he was doing it too much.

Zhang Gong wanted to see something from Fang Xiaodao and Xiao Ying, but these two people were soaked, and their shoes were covered in mud, so they couldn't see anything. Although it is difficult to explain why she went into the pool with her shoes on, or even why Xiao Ying was wrapped in clothes, at first glance there were no flaws at all, and there was no evidence that could immediately disprove Fang Xiaodao's lies.

After thinking about it again, Zhang Gong could only let Fang Xiaodao and them go back and talk about it, after all, it was futile to stand here.

When Fang Xiaodao got dressed, someone immediately knocked on the door and asked for it. It can be seen that this matter will not stop there.

When Fang Xiaodao walked into the hall, he found that Wu Boliang was also alarmed. It's just that he didn't come alone, but was accompanied by Yao Kebing. Yao Kebing's dark clouds dispersed, and he waited carefully beside Wu Boliang, and the relationship between the two was clear at a glance. But this master-apprentice lover relationship seems somewhat complicated, at least in the eyes of outsiders. As soon as he sat down, Xiao Ying also walked in, sitting beside Fang Xiaodao without squinting, looking fearless.

Wu Boliang's expression was unwavering, and he said to everyone: "I'm really sorry to disturb you late at night, but someone who died in the family should always find out, and please Haihan." ”

A few people were immediately surprised, but the number of people was relatively small, so there was no whispering. And everyone's concentration is not bad, no one immediately looked for the answer in Fang Xiaodao's eyes.

Zhang Gong glanced at Fang Xiaodao, but didn't see any changes in Fang Xiaodao. Instead, Fang Xiaodao saw his gaze and said loudly: "What do you see, you don't look for the murderer when the family is dead, what are your intentions in running to the waterhole?"

Zhang Gong said: "Hmph, the young man should know it." ”

Wu Boliang said: "Don't be rude, we'll talk about it later." After speaking, the other party's knife said: "Please forgive me, my disciple is also concerned about chaos, and please don't worry about him." ”

Fang Xiaodao sneered and was silent. At this moment, two men walked in from outside, carrying a wooden plank. And on the wooden plank, there was a female corpse.

After a long silence in the room, Wu Boliang said, "This is a female disciple of mine, who was found dead at the door of the ninth and tenth floors just now. Therefore, I hope to find the real culprit and that her soul can rest in peace. ”

Dharma Yuan said: "Amitabha, bitter, bitter!"

Fang Xiaodao felt that a high-ranking monk who had attained the Tao should not just say bitterness twice at this time, but Fa Yuan did not speak again. Just stared at the woman with a sad expression.

Wu Boliang said: "Fang Shaoxia, only you and this girl go out at night, how do you explain this?"

Fang Xiaodao said: "Why are you so interested in other people's male and female love?"

Wu Boliang said: "Fang Shaoxia said that he laughed, but someone saw that Shaoxia and this girl did not go to the pool, but went to the top, this is always true, right?"

Fang Xiaodao said: "Oh, who saw it, might as well let me also see this great hero with eyes like a torch?"

Wu Boliang looked at Zhang Gong, Zhang Gong walked outside the door and called a disciple to come in and said, "It's him, what else does Fang Shaoxia have to say?"

Fang Xiaodao took out a handful of dried fruits from his body and put them on the table and said, "This is something bought outside, it shouldn't be common in Yuelong Pond, I don't know who wants to taste it?"

Zhang Gong sneered: "That's not necessary, the young man can enjoy it as soon as possible, and there may not be such an opportunity in the future." ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "This outside thing is rare, but it's just a novelty." If you really compare what's on the outside with what's inside, I think you'll still think your own stuff is superior. If things are like this, so should people. ”

Zhang Gong said: "You don't have to say these useless words, let's talk about yourself first!"

Wu Boliang said: "The meaning of the young man is understood, Wu is here to compensate everyone." Although I shouldn't think of a few distinguished guests first, but these disciples love each other on weekdays, and it seems that there is no reason to do this. ”

Fang Xiaodao smiled: "I didn't mean that, you thought about it too much." ”

Wu Boliang naturally didn't believe that Fang Xiaodao didn't mean this, otherwise he wouldn't have taken out a handful of dried fruits to pretend. had no choice but to divert the topic and said, "Only Fang Shaoxia and this girl will go out tonight, so you don't have to involve anyone else." Innocence is innocence, just make it clear. ”

Fang Xiaodao sneered: "Yes, no one goes out tonight, and they all sleep soundly in the house." So, where did the ghosts come from that I didn't get dressed properly and was embarrassed in the waterhole?"

Sun Yan added fuel to the fire: "I was in a dream when I suddenly heard a group of people menacing. Through the window, I saw this Brother Zhang running up with a group of people holding torches. There should be no less than twenty people in this group, how can it be said that all of them have not gone out?"

Wu Boliang said: "However, there are only these two who go to the top. ”

Fang Xiaodao looked at Zhang Gong and said, "The surname is Zhang, what floor do you live on?"

Zhang Gong said: "I live on the third floor. ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "Then, how did you see me go up, how did you see me killing, and even, how do you know that someone is dead?"

Zhang Gong said: "Of course this is not what I saw, but what he saw." ”

Fang Xiaodao looked at the disciple and said, "Where do you live, why can you see me killing people on the tenth floor?"

The man said, "I didn't see you killing, but I saw you both go up." ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "When did you see it?"

The man said, "I, when I saw it, I told the senior brother, and then the senior brother took us up, and then I found that there was a dead person." ”

Fang Xiaodao nodded and said, "Very good, you said it without any flaws." But where do you live, and why don't you answer me?"

The man looked at Zhang Gong and seemed extremely nervous. Fang Xiaodao said: "Then Zhang Gong told me, how many floors does your junior brother live on?"

Zhang Gong said: "Fifth layer. ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "Oh, then may I ask this, the black light is blind, where are you on the fifth floor, you saw us through the dense fog at night." Are you so sure you see our faces, if not, take a good look, do you see these two faces?"

The man nodded, "I'm pretty sure that's what I saw." ”

Fang Xiaodao finally confirmed that this guy definitely didn't see it. Even if he could see their faces, he would never be able to see the face that Xiao Ying covered with a black veil. Fang Xiaodao smiled: "Good eyesight!"

Wu Boliang can be regarded as having understood one thing, it is impossible for his disciple to fiddle with Fang Xiaodao, and if this continues, Fang Xiaodao can say that the matter is a false accusation. So he waved his hand and said, "Go down, I believe that Fang Shaoxia is not this kind of person." ”

Zhang Gong looked very unwilling, but since Wu Boliang said so, he couldn't refute it.

Wu Boliang said: "Everyone is a master of martial arts, and if you want to come, you will definitely see extraordinary." It's better to take a look at the place where the murder was killed, and maybe you can see the clues. ”

On the ninth floor, the stone steps are lit up by torches and lanterns, and even a little dazzling. And just as striking were the red blood marks on the stone steps. This blood mark is not large, but a crescent-shaped, from top to bottom, a total of a dozen or so of different shades.

Wu Boliang and Zhang Gong's faces were not very good-looking, because such footprints didn't seem to explain anything.

Xiao Ying stood behind Fang Xiaodao, and she didn't know why she wanted to laugh out loud. She knew everything, so she could figure out where the blood mark came from.

At that time, Fang Xiaodao was standing at the door, and suddenly felt slimy under his feet. It wasn't unusual, but as soon as he reached forward, he kicked something soft. Originally, he thought that he had accidentally touched the little warbler in the night, so he immediately took it back. But the moment he touched Xiao Ying's hand, he suddenly reacted, Xiao Ying was standing on his right side at that time, how could he kick it with his left foot. He sniffed carefully in shock, and immediately smelled a smell of blood, so he pulled the little warbler and rushed down. At that time, he didn't have time to think about it, but he was afraid that he would be involved, so he made a little trick when he went down the stone steps. After running down on tiptoe, when the two of them on the sixth floor were dodging, he landed his feet on the ground and rubbed the soles of his shoes on the ground for a while, and it was estimated that no one could find a complete footprint.

This kind of sudden strategy can very much see a person's resourcefulness, and a person like Fang Xiaodao is more able to do something shocking when he is more nervous.

Sun Yan also guessed, but pretended not to know: "What's going on with this blood mark, why is it crescent-shaped?"

Wu Boliang said: "This is not a monster, but someone deliberately walks on tiptoe. It is only necessary to check who has blood on their feet, and it will not be difficult to find the murderer. ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "Listening to the meaning of the words, our shoes are wet, it seems that they did it on purpose?"

Wu Boliang said: "Those who are clear are self-purifying, and they only need to compare the size of their footprints, so it is not difficult to wash away their grievances." ”

Xiao Ying and Sun Yan were nervous, but Fang Xiaodao stepped forward unapprethoughtly and said, "Okay, I'll go and stain some blood, come and let you see." After speaking, without waiting for others to speak, he immediately ran up and stepped into a pool of blood, and then walked down on his tiptoes.

Zhang Gong immediately shouted: "It's the same big, it's the same big." ”

Fang Xiaodao smiled: "Does the same size mean that I killed someone? There is no blood on my feet." After a pause, he said, "Lift your feet, and then try how big you are, and then accuse me." ”

Zhang Gong happened to be about the same height as Fang Xiaodao, and the size of his feet was almost the same. As soon as she said this, Xiao Ying immediately said, "If you have the guts, you can also step on the blood and give it a try?"

Zhang Gong walked up angrily, and then he was also stained with blood and walked a few steps on tiptoe.

Sun Yan looked at it and said, "Although you don't stand on your tiptoes too high, as if you deliberately made some footprints, your toes are still as wide as the blood marks!"

Xiao Ying said: "Oh, it turns out that you, the senior brother, killed your own classmate, and then planted the blame." It's no wonder you don't blame others, after all, Brother Fang is as big as your feet. ”

Zhang Gong was stunned on the spot, and there was a feeling of being speechless.

Wu Boliang glanced at Fang Xiaodao and said, "Okay, this matter has to be investigated slowly." Fang Shaoxia, he is really resourceful!"

Fang Xiaodao didn't know what kind of mood he was in when he said this, but he understood that Wu Boliang actually knew it. What he did just now must have been seen through by Wu Boliang.

It turned out that Fang Xiaodao did not step on blood stains because he was eager to prove his innocence, but he was afraid that although his shoes were stained with mud, there were still some blood stains. So, step on some blood now, and then no one will make a fuss about these shoes anymore. Although it is indeed not good to step on the blood of some poor women to wash himself, but in the face of self-preservation, he is already very ruthless.

After a while, everyone returned to the house, Fang Xiaodao thought for a while, and was about to go to bed, when someone knocked on the door.

Fang Xiaodao opened the door, and it was Yao Kebing standing outside. Fang Xiaodao was stunned and said, "Miss Yao, what's the matter with you?"

Yao Kebing said: "Don't you want me to come?"

Fang Xiaodao said: "Please come in." ”

After inviting Yao Kebing to sit down, Fang Xiaodao opened the door of the room, as if to prove his innocence.

Yao Kebing looked at the long sword on Fang Xiaodao's table and said, "Childe's saber, it should have been with Childe for many years, right?"

Fang Xiaodao shook his head and said, "It's not a long time, but it's been more than three years. ”

Yao Kebing said: "I heard that the practice of sword focuses on specialization, and single-minded people are very loyal to their own swords. ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "Then do you say that people are important or swords are important?"

Yao Kebing was stunned and said, "People!"

Fang Xiaodao said: "Since people are more important than swords, why do you have to use only one sword in your life, should you die if the sword destroys people?"

Yao Kebing nodded and said, "That makes sense." ”

After a pause, Fang Xiaodao said, "I don't think Miss Yao should come." ”

Yao Kebing said, "Oh, why?"

Fang Xiaodao said: "At least you don't have this time." ”

Yao Kebing naturally understood that Fang Xiaodao was saying that she should be with Wu Boliang at this moment, but she didn't answer this question, but sighed: "You shouldn't come." ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "You mean, I shouldn't come to Yuelongtan or what?"

Yao Kebing said: "It was a mistake for you to come, so the best way is to leave quickly." ”

Fang Xiaodao looked at Yao Kebing and said, "If I want to leave, maybe you won't be able to see me at this time." You know what I'm talking about, right?"

Yao Kebing said: "So, what you did today is not wise. He's a very small man, and if you offend him, it's hard to get out of here. ”

Since experiencing the incident of Dao Ma Chuan, Fang Xiaodao felt that there were not many things in this world that could make him afraid. Comparing the Sword and Horse Palace and the Leaping Dragon Pond, it seems that he really has no reason to be afraid. However, at this juncture, Yao Kebing came to find him, and he had to make his heart beat a drum.

Fang Xiaodao said: "Yanbo Pavilion can even get people like Pei Xudong and Gong Nanyan, so our knife is naturally easier." Even if I escape, what's the use!"

Yao Kebing stood up and said, "Do you know that I will never harm you." ”

Fang Xiaodao nodded and said, "I know." ”

Yao Kebing saw that he couldn't persuade Fang Xiaodao, and looked like he wanted to say something, so he walked to the door and said, "You can do it yourself!" After speaking, he walked out and closed the door for Fang Xiaodao.

When I woke up the next day, I opened the door and saw that the fog outside had cleared and the weather was clear. Fang Xiaodao walked outside and looked at the waterfall. Although the mystery of falling from the clouds has been lost, the cathartic flow of water is still refreshing.

When he was in a daze, Fa Yuan came over from behind and said, "What are you thinking?"

Fang Xiaodao said: "I'm thinking, how many things are you old monk hiding from me." ”

Fa Yuan said: "There is really one thing I want to tell you, I hope you won't want to kill people after hearing it." ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "Tell me, I've always had a good temper. ”

Fa Yuan said: "There is a female disciple of the Four Seas Gang who told me that my junior brother and Han Daochang, the palace maid, and Pei Gongzi are not all the guests of Yuelongtan. However, they have not been seen since they came, and even where they are still need to be found. ”

Fang Xiaodao was stunned for a moment and said, "So, this female disciple of the Four Seas Gang died last night, right?"

Fa Yuan nodded.

Fang Xiaodao said: "This is not enough to make me want to kill." ”

Fa Yuan said: "A Pei Xudong may only make you anxious, but you will definitely try your best to mediate with them." But if you add a Gongsun Shu, you should be very tempted to kill. ”

Fang Xiaodao's eyebrows furrowed and said, "Xiaoying, her mother?"

Fa Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, the granddaughter is also here." ”

Fang Xiaodao struggled to calm down and said, "How did so many masters be brought by them?"

Fa Yuan shook his head and said, "It's not that they brought it, they came voluntarily." ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "I dispelled this idea since last night. ”

Fa Yuan said: "A few of us are really in the way here, but a few of them are indeed guests who came here voluntarily. ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "This is unlikely. ”

Fa Yuan said: "These people have one thing in common, that is, they know a person, this person had a nickname twenty years ago, called Qiu Yu Swordsman, and his sword is also called Qiu Yu. And today, twenty years later, only this person can invite these people at the same time. ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "No, Pei Xudong was still a child twenty years ago. ”

Fa Yuan said: "Yes, because he is a child, he is a disciple of that person. ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "Then why did he gather so many people, and it was in Yuelong Pond?"

Fa Yuan said: "Don't ask me why, you also ask me how I found out." ”

Fang Xiaodao said: "How?"

Fa Yuan said: "It's very simple, my junior brother has never lied to me. ”

Fang Xiaodao nodded and said, "It seems that the relationship between Wu Boliang and this Autumn Rain Swordsman is extraordinary!"

Fa Yuan said: "I can't figure this out either. ”

Xiao Ying stood on it and beckoned to Fang Xiaodao, Fang Xiaodao said, "Master, it seems that we have to fight with Wu Bohao." ”

Fa Yuan glanced back at the magnificent cave mansion and said, "Wait and see what happens, and see how he answers Miss He." ”

Fang Xiaodao nodded, and suddenly remembered that Wu Boliang said yesterday that he would give He Yuelan an answer today. There is a bit of a disparity in the number of people, and I don't know the depth of the other party, so I should really take a look at what Wu Boliang will say today.
