Chapter 275: Blood Road (4/5)
The silence of a meal was eaten. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xiao Suifeng didn't think there was anything, but Xiao Suifeng was not a person who was good at words, so he was silent, but Linglong, who was originally teasing Xiao Suifeng, was praised by Xiao Suifeng, but he was embarrassed, and sat opposite Xiao Suifeng with a red face, and he was silent.
There were not many people in this small inn, Xiao Suifeng and Linglong were silent, and suddenly the entire inn became much more deserted.
Fortunately, the desertion did not last long, just when Xiao Suifeng and Linglong had eaten almost and were about to get up and return to the house to rest, the innkeepers were suddenly pushed away, and the group walked straight in.
There were five people coming, and although it was already dark outside, it was pitch black, but those five people were not only dressed in black, but they also wore black hats on their heads, which almost covered up the whole person.
As soon as these five people walked into the inn, Xiao Suifeng's eyebrows immediately raised.
Xiao Suifeng is a martial arts master, and his divine sense is also extremely sensitive, and his constant vigilance has become an instinct of his body, and he will feel any danger that exists.
And these five people walked in, and Xiao Suifeng, who was about to get up and go back to the house, suddenly felt a sense of danger, and couldn't help but glance at the five people.
With just one glance, Xiao Suifeng was a little more vigilant.
The clothes of these five people are unusual, each holding a long knife in their hands, and their steps are steady between walking, and they look like people with kung fu. After carefully perceiving, Xiao Suifeng even found that these five people not only have kung fu in their bodies, but also that all of them are not weak in kung fu, and all five of them are masters of the qi realm.
Two Qi Realm Beginner Ranks, two Qi Realm Intermediate Ranks, and even one Qi Realm High Rank Martial Artist, such a lineup is almost enough to support a first-class Jianghu sect, but at this moment, it is naturally unusual to appear in the outer place of Wangshan Plain.
Xiao Suifeng instinctively became vigilant, and after the five people walked into the inn, they also discovered the existence of Xiao Suifeng and Linglong for the first time, and couldn't help but take a look, but then their eyes turned from Xiao Suifeng and Linglong.
The innkeeper was originally bored guarding the inn counter, only ready to wait for Xiao Suifeng and Linglong to eat and drink well, get up and pack up their things, and at this moment saw these five people walk in, although they are dressed strangely, but they are also politely greeted by Xiao Er, "A few guest officers, are you eating or staying in the hotel?"
Among the five people, a thin man with a knife in his hand stood up and replied in a deep voice, "I eat and stay in a hotel." ”
The innkeeper was first overjoyed when he heard this, then his brows furrowed again, he glanced at Xiao Suifeng and Linglong, and said with a bitter face, "I'm sorry guests, our inn is not big, the small shop has only six rooms in total, and two rooms have been rented to these two guests, but there are only four left at the moment, I don't know ......"
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, the man in black glanced at Xiao Suifeng, but turned his head again, directly threw out a piece of silver to the shopkeeper, and said, "I want all four rooms, and the wine and food must be fast!"
The innkeeper turned out to be silver, his eyes couldn't help but light up, his expression was overjoyed, and he immediately shouted loudly, "Okay, the room is ready, you might as well go to the room to clean up first, I will let the cook cook a delicious meal for the guest officers!"
The five people didn't stop in the lobby, and immediately went to the room with the inn junior.
......
This inn is very simple, naturally it is not as good as those inns in the real big city, not only is there only a total of six rooms, but the facilities in the inn are also ordinary and simple.
The whole inn, only one floor, the front is the lobby, which is the most spacious place in the whole inn, there are a few tables in it, and it can also be used as a restaurant on weekdays. And on the edge of the inn is the back kitchen, the innkeeper and the men's residence. And the whole inn, counting the shopkeeper, is only four people, the shopkeeper's boss, the proprietress of the shopkeeper, as well as a cook and a buddy.
As for the guest rooms, they are at the back of the lobby, a small courtyard, with two rooms on the left and right plus the back.
Xiao Suifeng and Linglong each asked for a room, which happened to be in the east of the back garden.
Xiao Suifeng silently watched the inn junior second walk back to the backyard with the five people, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and there was always a sense of crisis lingering in his heart, only knowing that this sense of crisis came from those five people, but it was difficult to grasp it carefully for a while, and it was difficult to find the reason.
And Linglong had already finished eating, and at this moment, her eyes were always on the five people, until they disappeared in the back garden, which lowered her voice and said to Xiao Suifeng, "Brother Xiao, these five people don't seem to be simple. ”
Xiao Suifeng was slightly stunned, couldn't help but look at Linglong, and said without moving, "What do you say?"
Linglong said seriously, "I can't see through the strength of these five people, so I won't talk about it for the time being, but just look at the actions of these five people, the wind is under their feet, their steps are steady, and their martial arts are extraordinary at a glance." Looking at their hands again, they all have thick calluses, and they are obviously people who practice knives all year round. Moreover, since the five people walked in, not only did they not leave the knife, but the handle of the knife was always inward, and they were obviously ready to draw the knife at any time. Even, the position between the five people is also wrong, and there is a vague formation......"
Listening to Linglong seriously analyzing the details he observed, Xiao Suifeng couldn't help but nod secretly.
Linglong's martial arts realm is much worse than Xiao Suifeng's, it is still only a potential realm, naturally he can't see through the kung fu of these five people, but although Linglong can't see through the strength of those five people, but Linglong, as a member of the secret spy of the Hundred Flowers Valley Cloud Chasing Hall, has the ability to observe and analyze potential threats is not bad at all.
At this moment, Linglong, through only a short moment of observation, can roughly judge the specialness of these five people, which makes Xiao Suifeng a little impressed.
Listening to Linglong's analysis, Xiao Suifeng couldn't help but ask, "Then according to you, what are the possible identities of these five people?"
Linglong pondered for a moment, "Judging from the mutual cooperation between the vigilance and walking of these five people, there are nothing more than three possibilities, either a dart master, a guard, or a killer. ”
After a pause, Linglong further analyzed, "Although I can't see the kung fu of these five people, the kung fu of these five people is obviously above me, at least it is also the strength of the high-level situation, among the rivers and lakes, there are so many top dart games, but there are almost no masters who can use such strength as dart masters, so the possibility of dart masters can be ruled out." In the same way, guards can also be ruled out, and when martial arts reach such a level, it is easy not to defend others. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Suifeng nodded secretly, his eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of the backyard, and received, "Then there is only one possibility left for the killer?"
Linglong nodded silently, but she was also confused.
If these five people are really killers, with the strength of these five people, their mission goals are naturally impossible to be ordinary people.
If it was when the righteous path factions and the Cold Moon Sect were still fighting in this Wangshan Plain before, and there were top killers who sneaked into this Wangshan Plain to fish in troubled waters, it was still possible, after all, people in the rivers and lakes could not get rid of the grievances and hatreds of the rivers and lakes no matter what, so whether it was the Cold Moon Sect or the masters of the various factions, it was possible to make enemies against others and attract killers.
But right now, whether it is the righteous path sect or the Cold Moon Sect, they have all died down, and the main forces of both sides have been withdrawn from the Wangshan Plain, and at this moment, in the Wangshan Plain, the horse thieves are the officials and soldiers, all of them are ordinary characters, Linglong can't figure out what kind of role there are that are worthy of others using such five masters to deal with.
"Could it be that it's for the Leng Cong of Fushan City?" After being silent for a while, Linglong suddenly spoke softly.
Xiao Suifeng was stunned for a moment, but then shook his head, "That Fushan City Lord Leng Cong is already a cultivation of artistic conception, martial arts cultivation is unfathomable, and it is superb, although these five people are not simple, but they are all the cultivation of the Qi realm, although the combat power is not bad, but if you want to assassinate that Leng Cong with the strength of these five people, it is still too far behind." ”
Xiao Suifeng dispelled this possibility with a word, Linglong thought about it, and finally nodded, "What Brother Xiao said is also true, but now that this Wangshan Plain, apart from Leng Cong, the city lord of Fushan Mountain, who else is worthy of others to send such a battle?"
Xiao Suifeng also thought about it.
Linglong's thinking is not wrong, if these five people are really killers, then in terms of their strength, their goals must be not small, but now in this Wangshan Plain, outside of Leng Cong, it seems that they can't find enough people.
"That's it, no matter who their target is, if these five people are really killers, the manager is a big trouble, and in terms of the current situation of Brother Xiao, it is better not to get involved. Linglong thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't think of a reason, so she simply shook her head and didn't think about it anymore.
Hearing Linglong say this, Xiao Suifeng also felt reasonable, and nodded at the moment, "Also, it's not early, let's have a good rest today, and I'll go on my way early tomorrow morning." ”
At that moment, the two of them also went back to their rooms separately and said no more.
......
The town was already quiet, and the inn was generally silent, knowing that at midnight, a few lightning bolts suddenly flashed in the sky, followed by rumbling thunder.
Xiao Suifeng was lying alone on the bed in his room, although he was already asleep, but when Xiao Suifeng was sleeping outside, he wanted to be alert, not only the sword was in his hand, but even his clothes were not taken off, and his sleep was naturally very shallow, and he could wake up at any time.
That thunder and rumbling naturally woke Xiao Suifeng directly.
And when Xiao Suifeng opened his eyes, there was another lightning bolt outside, shining the originally dark night sky as if it were day, so, coincidentally, a shadow was also imprinted on the outside of Xiao Suifeng's doors and windows.
Xiao Suifeng suddenly came to his senses, and his hand quietly touched the long sword in his hand.
The electric light faded, and it was dark again outside the window, and there was thunder rolling in the distance, and there was no sound in the small courtyard of the inn.
But at this moment, Xiao Suifeng didn't feel sleepy, got up quietly, picked up the long sword, moved to the door like a ghost, and listened softly.
Xiao Suifeng listened very carefully and very carefully, which was the only way he could vaguely recognize that outside his door, there were indeed people, and there was more than one person.
The people outside Xiao Suifeng's door were obviously very cautious, and their actions were extremely cautious, even if Xiao Suifeng's ears were already attached to the door at this moment, they didn't hear the sound of footsteps, no wonder Xiao Suifeng didn't notice that there was someone outside his house at first. And even at this time, the reason why Xiao Suifeng was able to confirm that there was someone outside the house was not because of the sound of their footsteps, but because of the gentle vibration of their pulse.
This made Xiao Suifeng couldn't help but rejoice, if it weren't for the sudden lightning and thunder, I am afraid that he would not have been able to detect the existence of outsiders at all.
Thinking so in his heart, Xiao Suifeng couldn't help frowning secretly, on the one hand, he was worried about the safety of Linglong on his side, and on the other hand, he guessed the other party's intentions.
Xiao Suifeng was basically able to determine that what was outside his house at the moment must be the five Jianghu people who stayed at dinner at night.
Xiao Suifeng and Linglong were still guessing who the target of these five people was, but at this moment it seemed that it was already certain, and the goal of those five people, if not wrong, should be Xiao Suifeng.
It's just that who are these five people, and for what purpose, why did they find themselves? Xiao Suifeng's heart was full of doubts.
Although after his identity as Yu Wenfeng was exposed, after he left Wangshanyuan, he inevitably had all kinds of troubles to find him, but it seemed that this kind of finding a killer to assassinate him was not in Xiao Suifeng's conjecture.
From Xiao Suifeng's point of view, Xiao Suifeng used Yuwenfeng's identity to help the Cold Moon Sect, and the most important reason why this matter would cause trouble was because Xiao Suifeng himself was from the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect, which was the right path that was incompatible with the Cold Moon Sect, and Xiao Suifeng's actions were a betrayal of the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect in the eyes of others, and even a betrayal of the entire righteous path.
Therefore, because of this, Xiao Suifeng's troubles were first and foremost from the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect or the Yang Void Palace, which was now the leader of the Righteous Path, and secondly, the pressure from the rest of the Righteous Path.
However, even if it was the Yangxu Palace or the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect, it was impossible to directly send someone to attack and kill themselves without any confirmation and without giving Xiao Suifeng any chance to justify, even if they wanted to kill Xiao Suifeng, who was a person who violated the righteous path in their eyes, it was not their style to act like this.
Therefore, these five people must have other origins.
It's just that, apart from the righteous path sects, at this moment, what other people would be looking for trouble for themselves?
Cold Moon Sect, or Aoki Villa?
Xiao Suifeng thought silently, and suddenly his eyes couldn't help but light up, or neither, and it was the mysterious person behind the curtain who had been hiding behind it? )
