Chapter 174: Not the Real Murderer
Besides, Tang Bao'er and Mei'er chased Tang Tong, but Tang Tong's speed was extremely fast, when he first fled, Tang Bao'er was only three or five zhang away from him, but at this time, he was nearly ten zhang away, in this dark and windy night, even if Tang Bao'er's eyesight was higher than that of ordinary people, he could only clearly identify the direction of Tang Tong's escape.
After a cup of tea or so to catch up, Tang Tong's speed also slowed down, he was hit by Xiong Qiang's sword in the abdomen, and the blood kept flowing, coupled with the desperate escape along the way, it was obvious that he had also reached the point of exhaustion.
Tang Bao'er's heart was overjoyed, but at this time, Tang Tong's figure flickered, and he jumped directly from this endless rooftop into an alley, and saw that Tang Tong's figure, which had just completely entered the line of sight, disappeared in front of his eyes.
This shows that Tang Tong has reached the point of desperation, but once he is allowed to enter those alleys, under the wrong and complicated paths, it may be even more difficult to find him again.
Therefore, Tang Bao'er's heart was also secretly anxious, and the speed under his feet also accelerated again.
When Tang Bao'er and Mei'er both jumped off the roof and entered the alley where Tang Tong disappeared, Tang Bao'er's heart, which had been hanging, finally let go.
Because he saw that under a door wall not far from him, there was already a figure lying there, and that person was Tang Tong, who had been on the run. At this time, Tang Tong did not speak, and his body was motionless. Under him, there was a pool of blood, and the blood hole in his abdomen was bubbling out.
"Tang Tong, I'll see where you're running this time!" Tang Bao'er said in a mocking tone.
Although Tang Tong was lying there without moving, it can be seen that Tang Bao'er and Mei'er, who had seen Tang Tong's methods, did not dare to be careless, seeing that Tang Tong did not speak, the two also looked at each other, and then each of them slowly walked towards Tang Tong with their swords on guard.
When Tang Tong was still more than a foot away, suddenly, on top of the house, a strong man in black appeared strangely, and the man in black looked at Tang Bao'er and Mei'er coldly, and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.
"Who?!" At the moment when the man in black appeared, Mei'er almost blurted out, and her originally tight heart shivered even more excitedly. She is a top master secretly cultivated by her grandmother, both her eyesight and ear have undergone special training, and this person can suddenly appear without her knowing it, which can only show that this person's strength is definitely above her.
Just when Mei'er was shocked, Tang Bao'er also saw the black shadow on the house. In an instant, Tang Bao'er's heart seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and she almost didn't have to think about it to know that the black-clothed master in front of her must be Tang Tong's rescuer.
"Who the hell are you?" said Tang Bao'er with a frown.
The man in black glanced at Tang Bao'er and Mei'er coldly, and then at Tang Tong, a look of disgust appeared between the corners of his eyebrows. However, at this moment, there were footsteps in the distance again, although the footsteps were extremely light, but in this quieter night, they could not escape the ears and eyes of the man in black.
The man in black glanced into the distance, frowned, still didn't say a word, and raised his hand to shoot out three hidden weapons.
"Be careful!" Mei'er couldn't see the so-called hidden weapon clearly at all, and only saw that the man in black had such a movement, that is, he rolled on the ground with Tang Bao'er.
But to her surprise, the hidden weapon did not shoot at them, but shot directly towards Tang Tong, only to hear Tang Tong, who was lying not far away, snorted, there were three more silver needles on his body, and most of the three silver needles were submerged in Tang Tong's body.
The man in black glanced at Tang Tong, snorted coldly, didn't pay any attention to Tang Bao'er and Mei'er, and then his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the house.
At the moment when the man in black disappeared, Xiong Qiang also hurried to the scene and said, "Are you all right?"
Tang Bao'er and Mei'er stood up and shook their heads, Mei'er said, "It's okay, I don't know who that man in black is! Why did he kill Tang Tong?"
Tang Bao'er said: "If I guess correctly, he should be from the Dark River!"
"The people of the Dark River, then why didn't he save Tang Tong, but killed him instead?" said Mei'er with some confusion.
Tang Bao'er said: "Perhaps, it's because Xiong Qiang has arrived! He doesn't want to entangle with us, for him, Tang Tong's identity has been revealed, he has lost his value, not to mention that Tang Tong is also injured, he wants to save Tang Tong from us, and he will definitely have some trouble." Since Tang Tong has no value to him, it is better to simply do nothing and kill Tang Tong, lest Tang Tong fall into our hands and reveal the secret of the dark river. ”
Mei'er nodded, Tang Bao'er's speculation was not unreasonable. However, at this time, Xiong Qiang walked towards Tang Tong.
At this time, Tang Tong had already lost his breath, and on his body, there were three silver highly poisonous silver needles, his whole body was already black, and there was dark black blood flowing out of his mouth and nose. Obviously, the poison on this silver needle is a poison that can kill people in an instant.
Tang Bao'er walked over, looked at Tang Tong, who looked a little terrifying, and said: "If I am not mistaken, this poison should be from overseas, it is a highly toxic poison taken from the poisonous glands of poisonous frogs. The Gaoshan tribes overseas often use this poison to hunt!"
Listening to Tang Bao'er's explanation, Xiong Qiang was a little puzzled and asked, "Hunting? How is this possible, this poison is so poisonous, can the prey be eaten after this poison?"
"Although this poison is powerful, it is afraid of high temperatures, as long as it is boiled in boiling water, this poison will naturally disappear. Tang Bao'er said.
Xiong Qiang nodded, and didn't say anything more, he didn't have much interest in understanding these poisons and the like, just carefully examined Tang Tong's corpse.
Tang Tong's throat was a little red and swollen, it seemed that Xiong Qiang's guess was not wrong, it should be caused by applying endless grass juice, and on his shoulder, there was also a scabbed wound, which should have been left by the fight with Mei'er a few days ago.
However, when Xiong Qiang touched Tang Tong's chest to look for the two letters, he found that the letters were gone, and finally found some black ink on the side of Tang Tong's mouth, and there were some residual confetti in his mouth.
It's just that these are no longer important, although Xiong Qiang and Tang Zhuang'er can't get the content of the letter, but at least it can be proved that Xiong Qiang's guesses should be not wrong.
Tang Bao'er looked at Tang Tong's corpse, and finally let out a long sigh, looked up at the dark night, tears welled up in her beautiful eyes, and she muttered a little chokedly: "Brother, after nearly two years, I finally found the murderer who killed you, you are under the Nine Springs, you can look at it." ”
"Miss, the truth is revealed, the culprit is in the law, please mourn too!" Mei'er looked at Tang Bao'er, who was a little choked, and said comfortingly.
However, when Tang Bao'er and Mei'er touched the scene and sighed, Xiong Qiang suddenly made a new discovery, and he found that Tang Tong's left hand was shrunk in a wide robe, as if he was holding something tightly.
He broke Tang Tong's clenched hand hard, but found a note in his palm.
Unfolded the note, Xiong Qiang's brows were also frowned, and suddenly, he seemed to think of something, only to see him sitting on the ground a little weakly, his face full of frustration. Staring at the note for a long time, he said in a voice that was almost only audible to him, "Wrong, it turns out that everything is wrong." ”
With a long sigh, looking at Tang Tong, Xiong Qiang silently kowtowed to Tang Tong, then put away the note, walked to Tang Bao'er quietly, and said, "Miss Tang, go back!"
Tang Bao'er's beautiful eyes were filled with tears, she looked at Xiong Qiang, and said, "Thank you! Xiong Qiang!"
Hearing Tang Bao'er's words, Xiong Qiang's heart shook violently, and he was secretly ashamed in his heart: "Miss, I'm sorry!"
