Chapter 67: The Puzzle
Suddenly there was a burst of arrows outside the big house, Fu Xi turned his head sharply, and said: "The Star Picking Hall is deliberate, and I am urgently recalled, I must go back immediately, Pavilion Master, you can rest here for a while, and you can go to the main hall with the old cat at three o'clock." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Xiong Qi, you come with me. ā
After Fu Xi said a few words, Xiong Qi carried the bodies of the wild wolf and Zhu Laosan and followed Fu Xi out of the door.
When the old cat saw Fu Xi go out, he said to Yue Pingsheng with a smile on his face: "Old Pavilion Master, if there is anything that needs to be done by your subordinates, you can just give orders." ā
"Okay, it's more convenient for you to go, there is still water in the Zuiyue Well, help me get a bucket of water." Yue Pingsheng said.
"Okay!" the old cat happily agreed, and immediately turned around and went out.
There were only Yue Pingsheng and Xiaodao left in the big house, and the atmosphere in the room was a little delicate.
The knife felt that Yue Pingsheng seemed to be deliberately supporting the old cat, he walked to the table, picked up a jar of wine and poured it: "Do you really trust Fuxi?"
"I don't believe him, who else can I trust?" Yue Pingsheng stood up, walked to the other side of the knife and sat down, "Are you still hesitating?"
"What am I hesitating about?" asked Knife.
"You haven't officially answered whether I'll help me or not. Yue Pingsheng said.
"Do I have a choice now?" Knife asked.
"You don't, you know too many secrets by now. Yue Pingsheng said.
"I'm not stupid, and I don't want to die so soon, so you have to tell me my answer?" Knife asked.
"You have to say it. Yue Pingsheng said.
"Why?" asked Knife.
"Because there is still a difference between hearing it with your own ears and guessing it tacitly. Yue Pingsheng said.
"Oh well. Knife drank the wine from the bowl and said, "I have now decided to act with you at night." ā
"I don't believe it!" Yue Pingsheng said coldly.
"You don't believe it?" said the knife, a little helpless.
"You just drank wine!" Yue Pingsheng said.
"Can't you drink alcohol?" Knife began to get a little confused.
"When people are unsure, they often say something by drinking, and you just drank it. Yue Pingsheng said.
Xiao Dao thought to himself, is this old man deliberately entertaining me? He smiled bitterly: "Then what can I do to make you satisfied?" ā
"When the old cat comes in, you'll kill him with one stab. Yue Pingsheng said.
"Isn't he on an important mission to kill him?" said Knife.
"His task is Fuxi's task, not my task to regain control of the Moon Pavilion. Yue Pingsheng said.
"I understand, if you recapture Lanyue Pavilion by Fu Xi's arrangement, Fu Xi will have nothing to say about how he turns his face in the end. There have to be some key steps for you to do yourself, am I right?" said Knife.
"Not bad!" Yue Pingsheng smiled.
After a while, the old cat pushed open the door with a bucket full of water and walked in, "Pavilion master, the water has been brought to you, you can take a look."
"Well, well, thank you for your hard work, when the old man returns to the Moon Pavilion, he will not forget your work of taking water for me. Yue Pingsheng said very happily, "You can take that water and heat it up again, and I'll use it later." ā
"Okay. "The old cat is unaware that danger is near.
"Knife, you go and help out. Yue Pingsheng said.
The knife took a deep breath and walked towards the old cat with an even pace, his eyes constantly paying attention to the old cat's movements. Carrying water, adding firewood, pouring water, and never looking back. The knife slowly touched his hand to his waist, and then the old cat suddenly turned around and said, "No need, I've got it all done." ā
"I'd better help. The knife's expression did not change in the slightest, and as soon as he raised his hand, the knife flashed, accompanied by a burst of blood. The old cat touched his throat, and the bright red blood kept coming out of the cracks between his fingers like a flowing stream. The old cat's eyes widened, and he looked at the knife incredulously, and then through the shoulder of the knife, he looked at Yue Pingsheng. He took two steps back, some unable to support his body, his right hand was swinging around in a panic, looking for a support point, and his helpless hand touched the iron basin of boiling water, and fell to the ground along with the iron basin.
"The old cat is dead, what is the plan now?" Knife turned around.
"It's up to you to do the old cat's job. Yue Pingsheng said.
"But I don't know what kind of work the old cat has been assigned to. Knife said.
"If you want to fight your opponent, you have to look at things from his point of view and make good use of your strengths. Yue Pingsheng said.
"What is the weakness of the Moon Pavilion?" asked Knife.
"The weakness is that he never trusts his killers, so there are definitely not many people who can enter the main hall. Fu Xi must know this, so he arranged for the ghost woman to disguise herself as a maid. ā
Knife nodded slightly, listening very carefully. Yue Pingsheng continued: "But once the pavilion master is attacked, other killers outside the door will definitely rush in, so Fu Xi must block this group of people, he must activate the mechanism in the Lanyue Pavilion Hall, this is the secret of the Lanyue Pavilion Hall, and there should be no more than three people who know." ā
"Three is already a lot. Who are those three?" asked Knife.
"Three is a lot, but it can't be less. One is the Pavilion Master himself, the other is the Moon Shadow Hall Master, and the other is the Wind Sound Hall Master. Yue Pingsheng said.
"One hall master is responsible for providing manpower, and one hall master is responsible for providing information, and they know that they should be, and it seems that there is indeed no less. But Fuxi is now the fourth person. Knife said.
"He knew it was because I told him. Yue Pingsheng said.
Xiao Dao said as if awakened: "I should have thought of it, this plan was arranged by you, did you see these people in the big house, you already knew that they were the people Fu Xi found to carry out your plan." ā
"Yes, you're getting smarter. Your mission is to extinguish all the oil lamps in the main hall after one round of competition. Yue Pingsheng said.
"That's all?" said Knife, a little incredulous.
"That's all, now that the bureau has been laid out, all that remains is to invite you into the urn. Yue Pingsheng said.
