Chapter 491: Murder in the Dead of Night (1)

Ke Liuyun didn't doubt Xiao Wuxian, but when everyone's opinions were quite unanimous, he naturally had to be clear.

"Since everyone agrees that this matter should not be told to Wuxian, then let's keep it a secret first! As for the relationship between him and Taoyao Niangzi, I will take the time to ask clearly. ”

After patting Ke Liuyun on the shoulder, Gu Huaiyan, who had a tired face, rubbed his sour eyes and said after yawning: "It's getting late today, and it's hard to rush, let's rest first! In the coming days, no matter what happens, we can't be separated, we need to work together." ”

These words were very much in line with everyone's wishes, especially Cheng Yinni, who walked towards the door quickly: "Gu Shaoxia, can you send me?"

"That's nature. Gu Huaiyan nodded very happily.

The two walked all the way to the unmanned corridor, and Cheng Yinni, who slowly stopped, said with a serious face: "With Gu Shaoxia's intelligence, it must not be difficult to know the purpose of my appointment with you...... It's definitely not just about you sending me back to my room. ”

"Of course, it's more than that, you must have asked me to come out alone to reveal something that is inconvenient for people to know. After a pause, Gu Huaiyan said again: "The city lord has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, Huaiyan has his own weight, and he will never leak secrets at will." ”

After nodding slightly, Cheng Yinni leaned into Gu Huaiyan's ear, and his voice was only a little louder than a mosquito's humming.

While everyone was asleep, Cheng Yinne simply repeated Cheng Ci's words to Gu Huaiyan word for word, after all, the most capable and trustworthy person here should also be Gu Huaiyan.

After bowing his head and pondering for a moment, and then scanning all the rooms, Gu Huaiyan couldn't help but ask, "According to the city lord, who are those people who go to the Golden Nest?"

Cheng Yinni frowned and replied, "I want to...... Most of them are from the Central Plains, and the purpose of their coming here is probably to obtain the martial arts of Shui Yuefu. Only in this way will they make a name for themselves in the martial arts, and even overthrow Meng'er and replace him as the new leader of the martial arts alliance. ”

Mentioning Yun Qiumeng's name, Gu Huaiyan also had deep worries from the bottom of his heart: "Forgive Huaiyan for talking too much, the city lord shouldn't have supported Meng'er to be the leader of the alliance in the first place." Anyway, she's just a little girl, and it's really hard to convince the public.

When a person has the heart to calculate her, he will never give up any opportunity, even if it is to spend a lot of money in exchange for Shui Yuefu...... I'm worried that our abilities won't be enough to protect Meng'er. ”

Cheng Yinni said: "It is precisely because I am worried that I don't have the ability to continue to protect Meng'er that I helped her to the throne of the leader of the martial arts alliance. Regardless of whether she has a future or not, at least she is now the supreme martial arts master, who would dare to touch her hair easily?

The martial arts recorded on Shui Yuefu can indeed allow those with ulterior motives to successfully pull Meng'er down from a high position. But since I came here with all my might, it was to stop the conspiracy of all of them, including Ji Haitang and his son. ”

After finishing speaking, Cheng Yinni sighed lightly and said: "Not telling Zhinan and the others about this is also for their safety, sometimes, the more you know, the more dangerous it will be." ”

Gu Huaiyan chuckled and said, "Don't worry, City Lord, Huaiyan knows how to do it." I will also do my best to help the city lord regain the water moon endowment, and those who have bad intentions want to poison the martial arts, Huaiyan will never be soft. ”

Cheng Yinnie also smiled very naturally: "I definitely believe in Gu Shaoxia...... It's not early, so let's go back to my room and rest! Wait until dawn tomorrow, and the young man can come to my room by himself, and let's discuss the countermeasures again. ”

After some tossing, all the men from Changhuan climbed into bed, just waiting to meet Zhou Gong in their dreams.

In contrast, Xiang Yang and Fang Puke, who are women, are not so easy to fall asleep. The two of them lay on the same bed and chatted until midnight, but they were still not sleepy.

It was the first time they met, different from Gu Huaiyan and others' suspicion of Xiao Wuxian, the friendship between Xiang Yang and Fang Pu heated up rapidly, even to the point that he could even share his childhood anecdotes.

After looking at the empty ceiling for a while, Xiang Yang unconsciously touched his lower abdomen, and then licked his lips: "Sister Pu, I'm really not sleepy at all, let's go downstairs and find something to eat, okay?"

As soon as these words came out, they were immediately recognized by Fang Pu: "I have this intention! Everyone has already fallen asleep, and the two of us take the opportunity to make two pots of good wine to drink under the moon, which is also a beautiful thing!"

The two tiptoed downstairs, but they gasped in unison. Because the candle downstairs had long since been extinguished, there was darkness everywhere they looked.

Through the broken windows, the dark and oppressive sky was directly exposed to the two girls, and with the gusts of cold wind that penetrated into the hall, the people who watched were panicked.

Fang Pu, who couldn't stand the cold, curled his hand into his sleeve after muttering a few words: "Sister Xiangyang, you stay here and don't move, I'll come back with a pot of wine." ”

Strange to say, Xiang Yang, who grows freely in the Snow God Palace, has a true qi body, and is the least afraid of the cold, but for the first time in his life in this small inn, he felt what the cold was.

Even if she was uneasy, she was still worried about letting Fang Pu go to get the wine alone, and even retreated: "Sister Pu, why don't we go back! I suddenly feel very hungry again......

Although Fang Pu, who had always been arrogant, also muttered, she still took a disdainful step: "It's all here, it's a pity not to bring something back!"

However, as she reached the shelf, she let out a terrible roar, and even the jug of wine in her hand was thrown to the ground, and then she ran quickly to the stairs.

"Sister Pu, what's wrong with you?" After seeing Fang Pu, who was panicked and frightened, Xiang Yang reflexively asked this sentence.

Fang Pu, who couldn't hide his fear, only cared about constantly using his hands to ease himself, even if he heard Xiang Yang's question, he didn't have the heart to answer, just shook his head vigorously.

Xiang Yang, who couldn't ask an answer, wanted to step forward to inquire about the situation, but was stopped by Fang Pu at the moment he took a step: "There is a dead man next to the wine rack ......"

Xiang Yang is holding a sword, and he is naturally not afraid of a dead man. But the current situation made her afraid to step forward, and she clearly knew that what she was afraid of was not the corpse, but the environment of this inn.

It was really because Fang Pu's screams were so terrible that many sleeping guests were forced to wake up. After a while, cursing and complaining followed.
