Cai Jiujin opened his mouth, and his tongue had been pulled out by Hu Seng even the root of his tongue, and the scream turned directly into a muffled sound of swallowing blood.

At this moment, across the col. Someone shouted: "It seems to be the cry of nine catties? Dugu, the one who killed the pig, did you hear it?"

"It's him!

"Nine pounds, nine pounds! Where are you?"

On the other side of the col, on the side of the col, Hu Seng and two knife-copying monks, one tall and one short, glanced at each other, pressed Cai Jiujin into the stream, and then balded his head, latent in the water, like three swimming fish, - quickly escaped from the bottom of the water.

Someone turned around the col and found it from the other side of the bridge.

There are three people.

A young man in a coat of hair, a butcher covered in oil, and a trickster dressed in fancy clothes.

The three of them soon found the broken wooden planks of the rope bridge, and the blood stains on the wooden planks.

Then they saw the stream red with blood and the floating corpses on the surface of the blood stream, and then the pig killers and tricks flew down the stream and carried Cai Jiujin ashore.

After only half a day's work, Cai Jiujin became a person with broken hands and feet and incomplete limbs.

Someone who is dying.

His tongue is broken, and he cannot speak, and his hands and feet are broken, and he cannot write.

He struggled with the last bit of clarity in his heart, and he tried to tell his companion the secret he knew in his heart, and he knew that if he could not let his companion know the secret, the secret would be lost forever, and his sacrifice would be in vain......

"Nine catties, that one hurt you like this?" Zhu Siliang's face jumped with anger.

"Who hurt you, brother?" the actor was so excited that even the voice of the questioner changed to a strange tone.

What they waited for was that Cai Jiujin tilted his head unwillingly and lost his breath with hatred.

The three of them were stunned, looking at their friend who was mutilated to an inhuman form, and for a while, it was difficult to accept this sudden and cruel reality.

-- Since the eldest Liang Niu died in the "Po Po Slope" in the "Luohuaxuan" Xiao raised his eyebrows and fought (see the third chapter of the volume of "Seven Nights of Snow"), a group of his brothers and sisters in the market have been damaged one after another, first the prostitutes Lin Mianhua and Lin Touhua sisters were raped and killed by the master and apprentice of the Wuhua master (see the "Mandala" volume), not long ago, Ye Laixiang, who poured night incense, and the blind fortune teller also died at the hands of the "Power Gang" (see the volume of "Slaughter of the City"), and now, Cai Jiujin was also brutally killed, and Zhu Siliang and the color opera master could no longer bear the pain.

For a long time, Dugu Yanfeng, the youngest chief catcher in the nine counties of "Beiliang", had a painful expression and said astringently: "Brother Jiu, he is dead." ”

The color actor said excitedly: "Nine catties were killed by someone!"

Zhu Siliang roared in a trembling voice: "Who! Who killed him?"

Dugu Remnant Feng was speechless, only sighed.

Suddenly, someone interjected, "I know who it is." ”

Approaching was a cold and upright girl in Tsing Yi, when she spoke, she was still at the bridge, and when the three of them found her, she was already in front of her.

"Frost girl. Dugu Remnant Feng greeted politely, and when he looked at the girl, the expression of the young head-catcher was inexplicably a little nervous, and even his voice trembled slightly.

"Second girl, why are you here?" asked Zhu Siliang in surprise.

"Who harmed Xiao Cai? He is a disciple of the iron-faced Cai family of the 'Divine Weapon Pavilion', and I know his kung fu that the person who killed him is definitely not simple. The artist's mind was back to his senses.

Leng Ruoshuang nodded slightly to Dugu Remnant Peak, avoiding his bright and affectionate gaze, and suddenly said: "The murderers of Xiao Cai are three monks. ”

The three of them were surprised: "How do you know?!"

Leng Ruoshuang pointed at the corpse underground with a sharp chin, and said in a cold voice: "Xiao Cai told me." ”

Zhu Siliang was startled: "Second girl, what are you kidding? Jiujin is dead, how can I tell you? Besides, his tongue and fingers are broken......

"Xiao Cai can't tell me the truth," Leng Ruoshuang said coldly, "but his ghost can." ”

"What?!" the color drama master was surprised: "The ghost of nine catties?"

Leng Ruoshuang nodded coldly.

"Dugu understands," Dugu Remnant Feng said suddenly: "I didn't expect that Miss Ruoshuang actually knew the art of 'exorcism', which made Dugu admire it too much!"

Leng Ruoshuang said: "I just photographed Xiao Cai wandering on the floating bridge, the three souls and seven spirits who have been reluctant to disperse for a long time, and I learned that the three monks who poisoned Xiao Cai were three monks, and one of them looked strange, not like the 'Central Plains', and there were two monks with excellent water nature, they could hold their breath underwater for a long time, and their knives were extremely fast. ”

Zhu Siliang said angrily: "However, the reckless monks have all run away." ”

Leng Ruoshuang said coldly: "There is a saying that a monk can't run to the temple if he runs away, haven't you heard of it?"

"There is only one monk temple nearby...... "The color opera master slowly raised his head, and said almost at the same time as Dugu Remnant Peak:

"Liuhua Temple!"

Leng Ruoshuang didn't answer and asked: "Do you know that in the few towns and villages near the foot of this mountain, there have been several sensational strange things recently?"

The answer was Dugu Remnant Feng, who was working in the yamen, he said: "In the past few months, the county government has received reports one after another, and there are as many as 82 women from good families and yellow flowers missing in the surrounding towns and towns. ”

Zhu Siliang said angrily: "What does the disappearance of these women have to do with the death of Jiujin?"

Leng Ruoshuang said: "I have visited the families of those missing village girls, before the disappearance of those women, most of them pointed out the impending disaster to the Xiangshi, Bu Tong, warlock and other gods, and most of them were guided to the 'Liuhua Temple' to ask for the blessing of the Buddha, and the result was ......."

Dugu Remnant Feng continued: "As a result, these letter girls disappeared one after another. ”

Leng Ruoshuang bowed his head and said, "I suspect that the problem lies in the 'Liuhua Temple'. ”

"How is it possible......" Dugu Remnant Feng doubted: "The four new masters of the 'Liuhua Temple', Dugu has seen them, not only one is solemn in appearance, the Dharma is profound, but also is kind and generous, and the widows and orphans are cared for, but every spring and autumn, the incense money and medicinal materials of the 'madhouse' in the town are given to charity, no less than two thousand taels of silver, and even the sea of flowers and blue sky in the state capital have been written in person." Pudu sentient beings, benefit the place' eight big characters of the golden plaque, hanging high in the main hall of the temple, to show the commendation of the imperial court, I don't believe anything, those highly respected Zen masters, will connive at the disciples, do such a reluctance and shameless deeds. ”

"This is what I found next to the mountain stream," Leng Ruoshuang raised the red belly pocket in his hand: "Look at the embroidery on it, it should be the thing of Xiaoyu, the daughter-in-law of the golden shopkeeper who has been missing for many days, I once asked the gold shopkeeper, before Xiaoyu's accident, he did come to the 'Liuhua Temple' to worship the Buddha and ask for a son, and then he disappeared." ”

Zhu Siliang said sadly: "This vegetable pick is a rice bowl for nine catties to feed a family, he even threw this on the mountain road, but he wanted to run away with this red belly pocket, there must be such a thing to do with it!"

The color opera master analyzed: "Before Jiujin died, he pulled out his tongue and broke his hands and feet, he must have discovered the secret of the 'Liuhua Temple', and those thieves and monks made such a ruthless move in order to prevent him from telling ......"

Dugu Remnant Feng said in a daze: "Could it be ...... Are you saying that ...... 'Liuhua Temple' is the mastermind of kidnapping the women of the good family, and Brother Jiujin found out the secret and ...... Impossible, 'Liuhua Temple' and 'Songshan Shaolin Temple' incense are in the same vein, and the four new masters of the temple are all Taoist monks, no, no......"

Leng Ruoshuang interrupted: "I don't believe it either, so we have to go and verify it." ”

Zhu Siliang said anxiously: "How to verify and verify?"

Leng Ruoshuang resolutely said: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger." ”

The color opera master said: "I and the second girl who killed the pig mixed into the 'Liuhua Temple' and found out!"

Zhu Siliang clapped his hands vigorously: "Okay! Say anything, I want to get justice for the orphans and widows in the Jiujin family." ”

"What about me?" Dugu Remnant said urgently.

"You are an official family, and you have been in the court with several great monks, and it is easy to alarm each other, so you are not suitable for this operation. Leng Ruoshuang pondered for a moment and said, "If the big catcher has the heart to help with this, he will go down the mountain immediately and return to the West County Ya to transfer some favorable people to meet us." ”

"Okay!" Dugu Remnant Peak promised, "This is no problem. ”

The frosty eyes glanced deeply at Dugu Remnantfeng, and Leng Ruoshuang reminded: "The monks in the temple, seven or eight times out of ten, have already colluded with important people in the yamen, and it is a matter of confidentiality, you must be careful, and be careful." ”

Dugu Remnant Feng nodded cautiously: "Second girl, please rest assured, even if the original errand is no longer credible, when Dugu was transferred from 'Heishui County', he also brought eight old helpers, they are all good brothers and good partners who have followed Dugu for many years, bold and careful, nine of us, plus three, are enough to deal with all situations." ”

Leng Ruoshuang glanced at him again, and her voice softened slightly: "This is the best." ”

Before leaving, Dugu Remnant Feng said with deep concern: "'Liuhua Temple' is very wealthy, from the county government to the state capital, there are a lot of donations in the temple, and the joints up and down inside and outside are connected, if there is no full evidence......"

Leng Ruoshuang smiled coldly: "If I use me as bait, do you guess that those monks of the 'Liuhua Temple' will be fooled?"

The beauty of Ruoshuang's smile, with a touch of hearty heroism in the clear energy, is enough to make the people of the world forgive the princes of the Beacon Fire Opera out of their hearts.

That smile is so beautiful that it has chilled the mountains and rivers and the sun and the moon......
