Chapter 7: The Devil's Trail (3/4)
This night's actions, Xiao Suifeng and Liu Susu were not the only ones who encountered difficulties.
In the west of the city, when Xu Cen and Liu Yu found the stronghold according to the information provided by this eyeliner, all the people inside were also killed. It's just that Xu Cen and Liu Yu had slightly better luck than Xiao Suifeng, and when they arrived, the killer had already left, and they didn't meet them. However, after a trip, they didn't get any useful news, which still made the two of them a little depressed.
In the room provided by Zhang Dahai for them, Liu Yu, who came back early, stared at them for a long time, and saw that Xiao Suifeng and Liu Susu had finally returned, and hurriedly greeted them and prepared to inquire about the situation. Before he could speak, Liu Yu saw the faint blood mark on Liu Susu's neck at a glance, and was taken aback at the moment, and hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"
Since Liu Susu came back to his senses, the flush on his cheeks has not faded for a moment, and he didn't even dare to look at Xiao Suifeng, so that when he was asked by his brother at this moment, his expression was still twisted and pinched, and his words were even more difficult to speak.
Xiao Suifeng's face did not change, and after glancing at Liu Susu, he briefly told the two of them what happened to them. Xu Cen and Liu Yu were shocked when they heard this, and immediately pulled Liu Susu up and looked at them carefully, "Susu, are you okay?"
Liu Susu smiled, glanced at Xiao Suifeng secretly, and whispered, "I'm really fine, it's just a little broken." ”
The two looked up and down to confirm that Liu Susu was really not injured, so they were relieved, and they didn't care too much about Liu Susu's weirdness for a while, and thought it was caused by excessive fright.
The two looked at each other, and after being silent for a long time, Xu Cen looked at Liu Yu and spoke, "Senior brother, this matter is full of weirdness, whether it is those who were exterminated, or a few black-clothed people who were killed by Uncle Xiao, it is not easy to think about their identities. If that's all there is to it, it's fine, but I'm afraid that the death of these people is just a trigger, and there will be more people behind them. Right now, Master Tai's birthday is imminent, and the entire rivers and lakes are watching me Piercing Cloud Sword Sect, if there is chaos at this time, it will be extremely unfavorable to my Piercing Cloud Sword Sect's face, and I have to guard against it. ”
Liu Yu nodded indifferently and said in a deep voice, "I'm not afraid of losing face." Beizecheng has always been extremely calm because of my Cloud Piercing Sword Sect, and no matter what is right or evil, he doesn't dare to be presumptuous here. And right now, these two groups of people are actually fighting outside the city of Beize, if they say that they have nothing to do with my Cloud Piercing Sword Sect, I don't believe it. I'm just afraid that there will be a conspiracy against my Cloud Piercing Sword Sect in this, and now the energy of the sect is on Master Tai's birthday, and there is no time to care about it for a while, if it is done on this, it will be really bad. ”
Xu Cen nodded, "Then according to Senior Brother, what should I do?"
Liu Yu paced back and forth for a few steps, and said, "With the strength of a few of us, I am afraid that this matter will be difficult to find out for a while, for the sake of today, it should be reported to the sect as soon as possible, so that the sect can be vigilant and pay attention, and then make arrangements." ”
After a pause, Liu Yu looked at Xiao Suifeng, "That's it, tomorrow morning, my junior brother and I will immediately rush back to the sect to report, as for Uncle Shi, I am still bothered to stay in the city for the time being and take care of it, so as not to have any more life incidents, what do you think, Uncle Shi?" Xiao Suifeng's temperament was as indifferent as ever, and he only nodded, indicating that he had no objection.
At that moment, Liu Yu looked at Liu Susu again and asked, "Susu, do you want to go back to the sect with us first, or stay in the city with your uncle?"
Liu Susu glanced at Xiao Suifeng as if inadvertently, and whispered, "I finally went down the mountain once, I haven't played enough, I'll stay too." Liu Yu thought about it, if he just stayed in the city and Xiao Suifeng was there, Liu Susu's safety should not be a problem, so he just nodded. But Xu Cen's eyes on the side swept between Liu Susu and Xiao Suifeng, but the corners of his mouth showed a clear smile.
......
Liu Yu and Xu Cen rushed back to the sect early in the morning, although Xiao Suifeng was fine, he also got up early because of habit. As for Liu Susu, it was when Xiao Suifeng was about to finish breakfast that Shi Shiran walked out.
Liu Susu obviously dressed up well before going out, last night's embarrassment is long gone, even the faint scar on the neck was covered by Liu Susu with light pink makeup, that delicate and cute appearance, really a romantic girl, flawless. At this moment, there were already a lot of guests in the inn who had breakfast, and when they saw such a beautiful woman walking out, they couldn't help but take a few more looks, while Liu Susu blushed slightly and walked directly to Xiao Suifeng's side and sat down.
Seeing this, the innkeeper immediately brought the breakfast over, Liu Susu only ate a few bites, then put down the chopsticks, and then looked at Xiao Suifeng and stopped talking again, before he said softly, "Uncle Xiao, thank you last night." ”
Xiao Suifeng glanced at her, didn't speak, only nodded slightly, but his eyes fell on Liu Susu's breakfast. Liu Susu glanced at it and saw that Xiao Suifeng's bowl was empty, but he didn't seem to be full yet, so he couldn't help but smile and pushed his early, "You eat, I'm full." ”
Since Xiao Suifeng followed Zuo Song, he has been practicing martial arts, and the amount of food is naturally large. Xiao Suifeng really didn't eat enough at this moment, so he glanced at Liu Susu, but he was not polite, and gobbled it up again.
Liu Susu held her cheek with one hand, just looked at Xiao Suifeng, and said with a gentle smile, "Uncle Xiao, you eat slowly, if it's not enough, it's good to let Xiao Er have another one." Xiao Suifeng glanced up at Liu Susu and slightly restrained his eating appearance. Liu Susu looked at it with a smile for a while, and then said with some expectation, "Uncle Xiao, you can go out with me after breakfast, my father watches me practice swords every day, and I haven't gone down the mountain to play for a long time." ”
Although Xiao Suifeng didn't raise his head, he still spoke, "What are you playing?"
Liu Susu's face suddenly showed joy, "Whatever, it's okay to look around, you can't just stay in the inn all the time." Uncle Xiao, don't look at this small city, but it's still very lively, and there are a lot of fun. Xiao Suifeng disagreed, but he didn't sweep Liu Susu's interest.
......
Beizecheng is indeed as Liu Susu said, although it is not big, but it is really very lively. I saw that there were all kinds of shops on both sides of the road, hanging all kinds of signboards to attract customers, and there were many peddlers carrying burdens on both sides of the road, and even jugglers were constantly shouting on the street corners, which made this small town quite prosperous.
Xiao Suifeng agreed to come out with Liu Susu, Liu Susu was already very happy, and when she saw all kinds of interesting and interesting things on the street, she was even more excited, and shouted again and again, buying this and that like a child. Xiao Suifeng was not interested in any of this, but silently followed behind Liu Susu, looking at the pedestrians on the street with cold eyes.
"Rouge!" Liu Susu exclaimed again and ran to a shop in surprise.
Everyone has a love for beauty, not to mention that Liu Susu is still a girl who has not grown up, and she has no resistance to things like rouge and gouache. Suddenly, she saw a rouge shop, she screamed and immediately jumped and ran over, Xiao Suifeng was helpless, so she could only follow.
In front of the shop, Liu Susu was excited to pick up, Xiao Suifeng was not interested in rouge, but was attracted by a woman who was also choosing rouge on the side.
The woman was extremely beautiful, wearing a rose bodice with a shadow gauze as thin as a cicada's wings, a green and soft smoke skirt around her waist, and a red plum blossom cicada wing veil that dragged the floor, tied up with a ribbon. If the waist is thin and the willow shoulders are cut, there is a trace of charm and charm between the eyebrows of Ruyue, but the smile at the corner of the mouth is slightly lazy, which is really beautiful and incomprehensible.
However, for the wood-like Xiao Suifeng, what can attract his attention is naturally not the beauty of this woman, but an extremely mysterious feeling.
This woman seems to be weak and can't help the wind, but for some reason, she just gives Xiao Suifeng a sense of danger.
Is it a master?
