Chapter 44: The Mysterious Man
It's just that Qiao Feng never understood why Mrs. Ma hated herself so much, even if she killed her husband, she had to frame herself.
Could it be that I have done anything to be sorry for her in the past?
Mrs. Ma's screaming voice happened to come at this time, breaking Qiao Feng's thoughts that had just risen.
"Ma Dayuan, come over and pinch me to death, I just can't get used to seeing your pus-filled appearance! A coward who doesn't want to take on any major matters deserves to die!"
The zombie ignored him, but since Bai Shijing had already explained everything, it was useless to keep it.
I only heard a soft "click", and Bai Shijing's throat cartilage had been crushed by zombies. Bai Shijing struggled hard, but he couldn't break free from anything, followed by another "click", and his throat was already broken.
Bai Shijing exhaled desperately a few breaths, but the breath in his mouth could no longer be inhaled into his lungs, and then his hands and feet spasmed, and he died of breath.
In the dark, his eyes were always wide open, and he couldn't be said to be blind.
As soon as the man pinched Bai Shijing, he turned around and went out the door, and then disappeared without a trace.
The body seems to be a little more alive than before.
Qiao Feng couldn't help but think about it: "This person is quite thoughtful and decisive, and he doesn't look like a zombie." But who is he? We have to go after him and find out. ”
At the moment, he glanced at Xu Yang, and then floated to the front door, under the moonlight, a faint figure in the distance was gradually disappearing towards the northeast corner.
If it weren't for Qiao Feng's excellent eyesight, he really wouldn't have been able to catch up with this figure.
However, since he has used light body skills, it means that everything before is just this person pretending to be a ghost.
Immediately cast his strength, and hurriedly chased in the direction of the man.
Under the rush, the distance between him and him had shrunk to no more than ten feet, and it was already clear that the man was indeed a great expert, and at this time he was no longer jumping on his legs, but on the contrary, his steps were elegant, as if he were gliding on land.
Qiao Feng's light skills originated from Shaolin, and was taught by the beggar gang leader Wang, purely masculine, a big step, is Zhang Xu, although the posture is not as chic and elegant as that person, but the speed is very fast.
After chasing for a few more moments, the distance between me and the man narrowed a little closer.
But it seemed that the other party was aware of it, and his feet suddenly accelerated, and the whole person staggered forward, and the distance that had been shortened was pulled away again after a while.
Qiao Feng realized that if he really talked about light skills, he was probably inferior to that person.
In fact, in his life, except for the second and third brothers, he has never seen anyone with such skills.
It is said that the crane in the clouds among the four evildoers is invincible in the world, but in Qiao Feng's opinion, he is just a short sprint faster than that person, and if he fights for a long time, he will definitely lose.
Encountering such a master, the desire to compete for glory in Qiao Feng's heart surged again, and he immediately accelerated his pace again and chased after him.
The two competed all the way, not giving in to each other, although that person was good at light work, but Qiao Feng was not far behind, and he desperately held on to it.
Unknowingly, after more than two hours of competition, the sky has gradually brightened, but the two have not yet decided the winner.
It was expected that he had run more than 100 miles, and he was still not equal, and Qiao Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.
At the moment, he shouted: "This brother, why don't you go to the town in front, how about I invite you to drink a few bowls of wine?
The man still didn't answer, but the speed of the dash seemed to slow down.
Qiao Feng shouted again: "Brother Tai is a traitor, which really makes Qiao admire." You and I are friends rather than enemies, so why bother with the momentary victory? No comparison, no comparison! How about drinking together?"
That being said, Qiao Feng's pace did not slow down.
The man stopped abruptly and turned to look back.
"It is worthy of Beiqiao Peak, such a long journey, it can still be full of energy, and the pace is not affected in the slightest. Alas, the old man is indeed old, and he can't compare to a young man like you. If you run for another hour, you will definitely lose, so don't chase it. ”
That being said, but the pride in it is undisguised.
With that, he turned around and walked away slowly.
Qiao Feng wanted to chase again, but when he heard the man's words, he didn't want to be entangled anymore, so he stopped.
I think that person also dislikes his Khitan Hu background, and he doesn't want to make friends with him, right?
He sighed and secretly said that it was a pity.
After all, not everyone is like the second brother and the third brother, who don't mind the distinction between Hu and Han.
Although it turned out that all the previous conspiracies were made up by Mrs. Ma and Bai Shijing, it confirmed the authenticity of Wang's letter.
No matter how high Qiao Feng's morale is, in the education he received since childhood, Hu Ren is not a good person, he is a wicked person who kills Han people and seizes the land of Han people.
With the blood of wicked people on his body, how can he make friends with the good men of the Central Plains martial arts?
That man's martial arts are really good, his scheming is deep, and he used the environment to pretend to be a zombie, so he forced Bai Shijing's confession.
Otherwise, even if it is tortured to extract a confession, Bai Shijing is born hard, and he may not be willing to tell the truth.
The matter was handled very well, but unfortunately I couldn't make this friend.
Qiao Feng has always loved to make friends, but since he was expelled from the beggar gang, he has offended the Central Plains Qunhao, and those friends in the past have been cut off cleanly, and he is rejected by others at this time, and he is very depressed.
At that moment, on the way back, I found a small town and drank in a restaurant in the town, and then I was drunk.
Today, it is rare to meet a hero whose martial arts are comparable to his own, but he has no chance to get acquainted, so he has to drink to drown his sorrows. But many of the mysteries that have accumulated in my heart for a long time have been solved, but I also feel very relieved.
It's just that he always remembered that Mrs. Ma hadn't understood anything yet, so he got up and hurried back.
Of course, the way back was much slower than the previous rush.
It wasn't until after noon that he returned to the Ma family's mansion.
Xu Yang was already waiting at the door, greeting him with a smile.
Seeing his brother, Qiao Feng returned to normal, and said with a relaxed face: "Is Uncle Duan safe and sound?"
Xu Yang smiled: "I detoxified him, and he didn't blame us." Duan Wangye has been romantic all his life, and he should suffer some hardships on women. He was also grateful to us for saving face for him, and also took the opportunity to see through Mrs. Ma's true face, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. The third brother sent them back, and it is estimated that those ladies will not have a good face for him after they go back. By the way, can you catch up with that guy? Who the hell is that guy?"
The depression in Qiao Feng's chest was mentioned again, and he also sighed: "That person's martial arts are amazing, I can't catch up with him, and he can't get rid of me." It just seemed that he didn't want to make friends with me, so he talked a few words and left. ”
Xu Yang naturally knew that things were not as simple as Qiao Feng said, and he could guess one or two by looking at his expression.
"Big brother, you still have a brother, don't worry about it. Xu Yang comforted: "What's more, your grievances are imminent, and when the time comes, you won't worry about being slandered again, and you will be a good man again." ”
Qiao Feng said: "Whether you are wronged or not, you can't help me." You must know that even though I was framed by Mrs. Ma, the letter that revealed my origin was true. Am I really a Khitan?"
With his fists clenched, he seemed to have an indescribable grievance that he couldn't vent.
Xu Yang Zhengse said: "Big brother, I have said it a hundred times and a thousand times, whether you are a Khitan or a Song person, you are my eldest brother." Is the hero of the Khitan people worse than the traitor among the Song people? What's more, no matter what your background, you are now a Song man through and through, a good man with iron bones, and that's fine. ”
Hearing Xu Yang's encouragement, Qiao Feng seemed to see a ray of light in the gloom.
It's a pity that whether this light can shine into his heart depends on his own attitude.
Xu Yang understands this, so every persuasion is only to the point.
After all, a person's predicament needs to be walked out by themselves, not by others.
"By the way, how is Mrs. Ma?" Qiao Feng asked.
Xu Yang pouted and said, "I'll leave it to Ah Zi to cook." Since she hurt Duan Wangye, how can she let it go?"
Ah Zi has a vicious mind, since she has taken the initiative to deal with Mrs. Ma, Xu Yang naturally has to let her go.
The wicked always have to be grinded by the wicked, let Xu Yang teach her a lesson, but I am afraid that if she is a little soft-hearted, she will take advantage of it.
"Beckoned!" At this moment, a joyful cheer came from inside the house, and Ah Zi rushed out, his face full of joy.
"What did you recruit? Mrs. Ma recruited?" Xu Yang resisted the urge to beat her and asked.
Ah Zi looked proud, raised a piece of paper in his hand, and said with a smile: "Exactly! This woman pretended to be noble and innocent at the beginning, but I didn't dare to touch her if I was sure of it." Afterward...... , I had to use some small means, she cried like a dog, didn't she have to be obedient?"
Qiao Feng snatched the confession, and sure enough, it was all dictated, clearly explaining the cause and effect, as well as Mrs. Ma's handprint.
It's just that the more he looks, the worse Qiao Feng's complexion becomes.
Mrs. Ma never said why she framed Qiao Feng, and in her confession, she never wrote how she supported others to kill Qiao Feng's adoptive parents, Qiao Sanhuai and his wife, as well as her mentor, Master Xuanku.
That's right, even if Bai Shijing is willing to help, with his martial arts, it may not be difficult to kill Qiao Sanhuai and his wife, but if he can sneak into the Shaolin Temple, assassinate Master Xuanku, and then blame himself, it is categorically impossible.
Xu Yang took the confession, obviously quickly saw the flaw, glared at Ah Zi, and scolded: "Give you a morning, and you asked these questions?"
Ah Zi is shrewd in small things, but confused in big things. Seeing that he was busy, it was obviously a great achievement, but he was not recognized, the corners of his mouth were crooked, and he cried out with a "wow".
"Okay, okay, don't cry. Xu Yang persuaded a little impatiently, and said to Qiao Feng: "It's better to ask Mrs. Ma directly." I always felt that there was something superior behind her, and she was a woman who couldn't do things so seamlessly. ”
It's not to underestimate women, but Mrs. Ma's pattern is here, a little conspiracy or she can think of it, but it is impossible to achieve such a careful layout without flaws.
Qiao Feng said "um" and stepped into the door.
Ah Ziyu was crying there, Xu Yang thought about it, and couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward to comfort him.
But after persuading her for a while, I found that she was pretending to be sobbing, but there was a smile in her eyes, this acting skill was a bit poor.
Angry, Xu Yang flicked the sleeves of his robe and entered the house, wanting to help Qiao Feng interrogate.
As soon as he entered the house, Xu Yang was immediately startled, how could this be?
