Chapter 114: Investigating Zhang Xiao

After Xia Houen introduced himself and Xia Houlan, he continued to say to Zhang Xiao: "Zhang Xiao, the assassination of Lord Sikong this time is a serious case, and you need to confirm all aspects to prove that you are not an accomplice of those assassins, if you have a clear conscience, please cooperate with us." [Ran^Text^Library] []”

Zhang Xiao knew that he would always come, so he didn't explain, and cooperated with them and said: "No problem, I will cooperate with you, what do you want to investigate?"

Xia Houen glanced at Xia Houlan and said to Zhang Xiao: "We will temporarily confiscate your belongings first, please cooperate, and when the investigation is completed, if you are not an assassin, we will return the original items to you." ”

This kind of treatment makes Zhang Xiao very reluctant, which thing on his body is not a treasure, and the fragments of Qingyu are also among them, how can such an immortal thing be handed over to others casually, and if Weng Rou is accidentally released in the empty bag, it will not cause unnecessary trouble, and it will be difficult to choose for a while.

Xia Houen probably understood Zhang Xiao's concerns, so he promised: "You can rest assured, our discipline regulations do not allow theft, and violators will be dealt with according to military law, so we will never tamper with any of your belongings, and when the investigation is over, they will naturally be returned." ”

Zhang Xiao had no other way, since he promised to do so, he could only believe him, so he handed over all the items on his body to Xia Houlan, and accepted Xia Houen's body search, and finally ended this link.

When Xia Houen checked that Zhang Xiao had no other items on his body, he wanted Zhang Xiao to interrogate and said, "Zhang Xiao, why are you here? What is your purpose? Are those assassins your gang? Is there any conflict between you and them temporarily?"

Zhang Xiao knew that they would ask, and said lightly: "I just passed by here, and I happened to see this group of assassins enter Sikong Mansion, and I felt that they had bad intentions before following in, I am not one of them, you can investigate." ”

Zhang Xiao was not a gang of assassins in the first place, of course he would not admit it, and Zhang Xiao found that as long as he could not prove that he was in a gang with the assassins, then he was safe, so he naturally had to dissociate himself from those assassins.

Xia Houen didn't believe Zhang Xiao's answer very much, if he passed through here, how could he be wearing a night suit? So he asked: "Since you are passing by, then why do you wear a night suit?" You said that you are an immortal cultivator, so can you prove it, a simple move is good. ”

Zhang Xiao saw Xia Houen looking at him with this curious look, and immediately understood what he meant, it turned out that he just wanted to see his immortal arts, if he could perform immortal magic now, then he could directly prove his innocence, maybe they would compliment themselves, but the bad thing was that he couldn't use his aura now.

Zhang Xiao deliberately pretended to be indifferent and said: "How can immortal art be displayed at will, improper use is likely to cause accidents, what I said is the truth, if you want to investigate, just go, you will wait for you here." ”

Xia Houen was very disappointed when he saw Zhang Xiao's refusal, but he couldn't help it, so he said respectfully: "Zhang Xiao, you are here to rest, I will investigate as soon as possible." ”

After saying that, Xia Houen led Xia Houlan out of here, Zhang Xiao saw that they were all gone, and immediately meditated and breathed, he must open the acupuncture points as soon as possible, and he didn't know what chaos would happen in these times, and only by recovering his aura could he save himself.

Zhang Xiao and Yuan Li had been waiting for Zhang Xiao and the bag on the roof, and when they saw more and more fires in Sikong Mansion, and there was noise everywhere, they couldn't help but start to worry about Zhang Xiao, the more they waited, the more dangerous it would be.

Just when Zhang Yao was still observing the movement in Sikong Mansion, a hook was suddenly thrown out of Sikong Mansion and hooked on the eaves, which was the rope hook caught in the bag, Zhang Yao finally settled down, it seemed that Zhang Xiao was fine.

It didn't take long for the bag to slip out of Sikong Mansion, stand on the eaves and immediately put the rope hook back, which made Zhang Yao puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "What are you doing here? Cousin hasn't come out yet? Why did you take the rope back." ”

Bag fishing continued to collect the rope hook, and said with some weakness: "I wasn't with him, those assassins wanted to kill, your cousin didn't allow it, and ended up fighting with the assassins, and when I heard the gong, I came out first, and I don't know how he is doing now." ”

When Zhang Xiao heard the words of fishing in his bag, he couldn't believe it, he actually left Zhang Xiao and did such an unrighteous thing, he was suddenly full of anger and uncontrollable, pulled out his bamboo sword, and roared angrily: "You unrighteous scum, you actually left your cousin and ran away by yourself, see that I will not kill you." ”

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yuan Li hurriedly went up to stop it, grabbed Zhang Yao's wrist, and said: "Zhang Yao, don't get excited, Zhang Xiao just hasn't come out now, it doesn't mean that something happened to him, and it is not difficult to escape with his strength." ”

Zhang Jiao shook off Yuan Li's hand and said angrily: "Don't speak for him, I don't care what my cousin is doing now, he dares to leave his cousin alone in order to escape, what's the use of keeping this kind of scum, see if I kill him now." ”

Zhang Yao stabbed into the bag again, his eyes were full of murderous energy, he didn't expect Zhang Yao to be aggressive to such an extent, and he suddenly dodged in a panic, but fortunately, he was extraordinary and frequently dodged Zhang Yao's attacks.

But this not only did not make Zhang Jiao angry, but the anger became bigger, the movements became faster, the moves became more dangerous, and the fishing in the bag also felt a little unbearable.

Yuan Li saw that Zhang Yao was out of control, and if he didn't do anything, he would really die under Zhang Yao's hands, but just as he was about to step forward to persuade him, a voice came from the roof next to him.

There were two people standing on the roof next to him, and one of them said to Zhang Yao and the others: "Three, if you are still fighting and killing on the roof in the middle of the night, it will affect the rest of the others." ”

The three of them suddenly stopped their movements, looked at the two people in horror, and the one who spoke was an old man, a little rickety, with a long white beard, while the other person was wearing a tight-fitting suit, wearing a mask, and standing behind the old man with his chest crossed.

Zhang Jiao didn't expect that there were other people here, and he didn't even notice it, thinking that they were from those assassins, so he was angry and said, "Who are you? Why are you here? Could it be those assassins?"

The old man was not flustered, and said unhurriedly: "How can the old man be an assassin, but a few people have made such a big move in Xuchang, we naturally can't ignore it." ”

Yuan Li probably guessed who they were, and in order to avoid complications, he said politely: "I don't know what this senior is called, since he has been waiting here for a long time, he shouldn't want to fight." ”

The old man smiled faintly and said: "The old man's surname is Chen, but he is just the housekeeper of the Su family of the Phixing Sect, you come to Xuchang, our master also wants to do the friendship of the landlord, I never thought that you still have such important things in your body, so I have to wait here, and then make an invitation when you are done." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Jiao was furious, and yelled at the old man: "Why are you talking so much, but do you just want to fight? ”

The old man immediately explained: "The old man doesn't mean this, the reason why I am here is just to sincerely invite you to the sect to talk about it, the Star Phi Sect is a famous and decent family, how can we not have the strength, we have no malice." ”

Zhang Xiao saw that the old man was very sincere, and he believed him a little, but Zhang Xiao was still in Sikong Mansion, how could he leave like this, so he said: "I understand your kindness, but I still have friends who haven't come out, and now I don't have time to go to the Star Pie." ”

The old man disagreed, and said: "It doesn't matter, the assassins in Sikong Mansion are already dead, caught, and fled, and no one will come out anymore, but the Phi Xing Sect has a very good relationship with the imperial court, so it can help." ”

As soon as Zhang Xiao heard that the matter in Sikong's Mansion had subsided, he suddenly became very anxious, whether Zhang Xiao was alive or dead now, and couldn't help but hurriedly ask the old man: "What? Then how is my cousin doing now? No, I have to go in and find him." ”

The old man saw that Zhang Jiao was about to enter Sikong Mansion again, so he hurriedly stopped him and said: "This girl, please rest assured, your companion is safe now, it is better to go to our Star Sect to rest first, and then we will help you find a way to rescue him tomorrow morning, otherwise you will only help more and more now, and you may harm him instead." ”
