Chapter 232: Dongsheng Inn Peeks into the Secret (2)
Chapter 232
The white-haired old man in the middle said, "Senior Brother Qi, don't be in a hurry, let's discuss it slowly." "It turns out that the big man is Qi Weixiang of the Tianmen faction, and the white-haired old man is Qu Mufeng, the elder of the Diancang faction, and Diancang and the Tianmen faction have always been friends, so Qu Mufeng calls Qi Weixiang his junior brother. Qu Mufeng spoke, Qi Weixiang was not easy to refute, snorted coldly, turned around and sat down.
The white-faced middle-aged scribe beside Qu Mufeng is Mo Shangmeng, the protector of the Yangtze River Gang, the red-faced Taoist priest is the Tibetan pine nut of Putuo Mountain, the old man is Hua Chengyun, the famous man of the Wushan faction, and the little girl is Zhao Lingzhi, the daughter of Zhao Quan, the head of the Tianlong faction.
plus Bai Xiangzi, there are a total of seven people, and these people are all well-known figures in their respective sects. Although Jiang Liu only knew Bai Xiangzi, he also felt that it was important for these people to gather here.
Qu Mufeng stood up, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "The reason why I invited you here today is that the situation is serious. ”
Hua Chengyun stroked his beard under his forehead and asked, "Elder Qu, I don't know something. How do the elders know that our head has also passed away...... "The others also have the same idea in their hearts, the head of this sect was killed, and all factions are strictly ordered not to leak out, how can the Diancang faction know?
Qu Mufeng said: "You have this question, I can understand. Mu Fang, you bring the blood book. The latter sentence was said to the disciples behind him.
The disciple named Mu Fang behind him answered, turned around and picked up a rag from the bed next to him, and handed it to Qu Mufeng. The bent wood wind unfolded the cloth, and everyone gasped when they saw it. It turned out that the paper of the scroll was written with more than a dozen crooked characters with blood stains: "Putuo, Wushan, Yangtze River, Tianmen, Diancang, Bagua, Tianlong".
"Look!" Qu Mufeng said, "I found it next to the head of this sect, so I invited you to come over." After a pause, he said, "Except for the Tianlong Sect, the heads of the other sects have all been killed. Zhao Lingzhi was pale when he heard this, and said: "My father, Uncle Tian Yi and the two elder brothers went out to have something to do, and they haven't returned yet." Won't ...... What's wrong?"
The middle-aged scribe Mo Shangmeng muttered: "Miss Zhao, please be relieved, according to what everyone just said, the murder of the head of the family is a matter of night. The sky is blue and the sun is white, and it is expected that the enemy will not dare to commit murder, and the head of Zhao should be fine now. ”
Zhao Lingzhi nodded, stopped talking, and his face still looked very worried. "Mo Protector is right" The red-faced Taoist priest Zang Songzi said: "The head of our sect was killed seven days ago on the night, and then Wushan, the Yangtze River, Tianmen, Diancang, and Bagua ......."
"Yes!" Bai Xiangzi took over and said, "The head of our sect was killed last night, and his body is now in the mountains and forests outside the city. ”
Zang Songzi, the Putuo faction, changed his face and said, "Your faction should be careful, after the head of my family was killed, the body of the head of the family disappeared the next day." Qi Weixiang also said: "The body of the head of my family is also missing." ”
"The body of our gang leader also disappeared inexplicably. "So are we!" everyone agreed, and Qu Mufeng said: "The purpose of everyone gathering like this is to find out the murderer and avenge the heads of the family. We all already know that all the heads of the factions were stabbed to death with a sword piercing the heart, and I think the murderer should be the same person, and this person's martial arts are extremely high, so he can kill the heads of the various factions without alarming others. ”
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Qu Mufeng continued: "Now there are two questions, one is who stole the corpses of the various heads?" he raised the rags in his hand and continued, "The second question is who left this blood book?"
Everyone was silent for a while, and Mo Shangmeng said: "I think the corpse will never be stolen by the murderer, if it is stolen by the murderer, you can kill the head of the family and take the body away, why bother to come again every other day?"
"I think so. Zang Songzi said: "The blood book was not left by the murderer, could it be left by the head of the pool?"
Qu Mufeng shook his head and said, "It's unlikely, this blood book is written with blood stained with fingers or hard objects." When Chi Zhangmen was dying, he held a half-cut saber in his right hand, and the dart in his left hand had not yet been released, and there was no blood on his fingers or darts. ”
Mo Shangmeng sighed: "The long sword of the head of the Shock Break Pool, and he can't send his darts, this person's martial arts are incredible." ”
Qi Weixiang said loudly: "Everyone, it may not be his grandmother's murderer, if there is a weapon that can blow hair and cut iron like clay, he can also cut off the long sword." ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and even Jiang Liu's heart moved. What was Xiao Feiyan willing to risk her life to kill Li Yang of the Yunyang Sect for? Jiang Liu had also asked Xiao Feiyan, but she avoided talking about it.
"Could it be that these people were also killed by Xiao Feiyan?" This thought startled Jiang Liu, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore. Listening to Qu Mufeng again, he said: "Senior Brother Qi guessed well, I carefully checked the short sword in the master's hand, the blade is smooth, not like it is broken." ”
Qi Weixiang snorted: "Senior Brother Qu, what should we do next?"
Qu Mufeng said: "Of the sects on this blood book, only the Tianlong Sect has survived. I guess the murderer must go to the head of the Tianlong Sect tonight, right?"
Zhao Lingzhi said in a trembling voice: "Then what can I do? Daddy doesn't know yet." ”
Qu Mufeng said: "Miss Zhao, don't worry, we have our own arrangements." Turning to everyone, he continued: "If it is not what we expected, someone will inevitably steal the corpse of the head of the Bagua Gate, Chi Songzi. Therefore, we have to divide our troops into two ways, all the way to protect the head of the Tianlong faction, and all the way to protect the body of the head of Chi Songzi, find out the thief, and find out his intentions. In addition, we need to recover the bodies of other leaders, so that they cannot be humiliated after death. ”
Everyone nodded yes, and Hua Chengyun said: "What Elder Qu said is good, the top priority is to arrest the murderer and avenge your leaders." ”
Qi Weixiang was the most anxious, and said: "Senior Brother Qu, you hurry up and arrange tasks for us, I'm in a hurry." ”
Qu Mufeng calmed down and said loudly: "Everyone, Qu Mou Yue, Putuo Zang Songzi Daoist and Changjiang Gang Mo Protector, please send someone to help Bai Xiangzi Daoist protect the body of the head of Chi Songzi, how about it?"
Zang Songzi, Mo Shangmeng, and Bai Xiangzi responded together: "What Elder Qu invites, I should agree." ”
"Thank you!" Qu Mufeng returned the salute: "Senior Brother Qi of the Tianmen Sect and Senior Brother Hua Chengyun of the Wushan Sect, how about our three factions work together to help the Tianlong Sect, protect the head of Zhao, and arrest the murderer?"
Qi Weixiang and Hua Chengyun nodded yes, Zhao Lingzhi was grateful, and said, "Lingzhi thanks all the uncles and uncles for their help." After saying that, Yingying was about to bow down, Qu Mufeng hurriedly helped her up, and said: "Lingzhi girl doesn't need to be polite, we are all together, and we should help each other." ”
Zhao Lingzhi thanked him here and stood aside. Qu Mufeng looked around at everyone and said solemnly: "In this case, everyone hurry up and get ready." ”
