When Qin Yu smelled the smell of blood, his heart immediately sank, and he instinctively wanted to run. Qin Yu has studied martial arts for so many years, and he doesn't dare to say how strong he is in other skills, but he is very proficient in the ability to escape, not to mention that second-rate masters have a chance to escape under the pursuit of first-class masters.

But as soon as Qin Yu retreated to the side of the ladder, he stopped there, he squinted his eyes and looked around suspiciously, there seemed to be no one in the room. Reason made Qin Yu not dare to act rashly, holding his breath and lowering his body, Qin Yu carefully observed this small room.

It's a pity that this is a windowless room, it is very dark and there are no candles, Qin Yu didn't dare to light a fire, Qin Yu slowly moved to the exit, and listened quietly.

At this time, in the dead of night, the room was also eerily quiet, Qin Yu could only hear his faint heartbeat with his ears sideways, and after a while, Qin Yu was sure that there was only one living person here.

took out the fire fold he was carrying from his arms and lit it, the faint light reflected on Qin Yu's expressionless face was even more solemn, thinking about it for a while, Qin Yu did not light the oil lamp on the table, who knows what was mixed in the lamp oil.

Holding the fire fold, Qin Yu walked towards the source of the smell of blood step by step, and the first thing that caught his eye was a headless corpse.

Qin Yu's first reaction when he saw the corpse was that he had been exposed, someone had betrayed the Famous Sword Villa, and the stronghold of this joint was a trap.

Seeing that the corpse was good, Qin Yu immediately turned into a detective, he didn't rush up to check the corpse, that is, Qin Yu himself knew three or four ways to set traps on the corpse, ensuring that the person who went up to check would lose half his life if he didn't die.

Therefore, Qin Yu just took advantage of the faint light of the fire fold to carefully observe this headless corpse.

The corpse sat on its knees, its hands drooping, and although it had no head, it did not fall.

There was a short knife placed next to it in a regular manner, but it was not pulled out, indicating that the murderer's knife was very fast, so fast that the deceased had not yet noticed the killing intent, and his head was taken away.

At the same time, it also shows that the killer and the killed should know each other, and the relationship is good, at least they trust each other.

Otherwise, the murderer would not have had a chance to attack at such a close distance, and took the opponent's neck before the other party could react.

Speaking of human heads, Qin Yu did not find the head of the corpse in the room, it should be that the murderer took it away after killing someone.

Maybe it was to cover up the identity of the deceased, maybe it was used to prove that the deceased was dead, or some other purpose, Qin Yu didn't know.

Blood was still bubbling from the neck, and there were still blood stains on the walls and even the roof of the shed behind it.

This shows that the victim was killed at most a quarter of an hour ago, the murderer had just finished killing, and Qin Yu may have left with his front and back feet, if Qin Yu arrived one step earlier, he would have met him on a narrow road.

Qin Yu didn't have the confidence to guarantee that he wouldn't be in a different place under the enemy's quick knife like the corpse in front of him.

Pulling out the short sword pinned to his waist, he tapped it on several places on the corpse with the scabbard, and after making sure that there was no problem, Qin Yu reached out and took out half a jade plaque from the deceased's waist.

Looking at the incomplete jade plaque in his hand, Qin Yu frowned, and took out another half of the jade plaque with similar texture from his arms, and the two were tightly matched.

This deceased is likely to be the person who is going to connect with Qin Yu this time, and it is also Situ Heyun, a spy arranged by the Famous Sword Villa by Feng Zongbing's side.

Situ Heyun is now not only dead, but also dead in the stronghold of the connection with himself, which means nothing to say.

This shows that the arrangement of the Famous Sword Villa in Tianxia Pass has been exposed, whether it is leaked in front of the imperial court or in front of Feng Zongbing, it has made the relationship between Mingjian Villa and Feng Zongbing even worse.

If this person was not Situ Heyun, but someone else, the situation would be even more complicated. Of course, these are not what Qin Yu needs to think about now, all he needs to do is to leave here quickly, report everything to Qi Yufei, and let the young young owner decide on his next move.

Instead of going through the secret passage where I came in, I walked to the main entrance of the room. Qin Yu opened the door after making sure that there was no mechanism to ambush, came to the courtyard and let out a sigh, and jumped out of the wall.

As soon as he landed, before Qin Yu could react, a burning stick suddenly whistled and hit Qin Yu's head, trying to dodge but it was too late, and a dull stick knocked him unconscious.

Before losing consciousness, Qin Yu's heart was broken, and his previous cautious behavior was like a joke. Even if you are careful, he only hits you with a stick and knocks you out and carries you away.

Coming out of the shadows was the shopkeeper who warmly greeted them in the inn, this shopkeeper who was not good-looking and had a lowly status, turned out to be a first-class master at this time.

His appearance was not only to retaliate against Qin Yu's open-mouthedness, but also because of Zhao Ping, who was still asleep in the inn. To be precise, it was because of the belt that Zhao Ping was wearing that attracted Feng Sanniang's attention.

After all, the Heavenly Sword Gate is the head snake of this piece, even if Feng Sanniang has not seen the deputy sect master Wu who has been hacked to death, she also knows that the token representing his identity is this belt.

Since the belt appeared on Zhao Ping's waist, it means that Deputy Master Wu is dead, even if it is not killed by the three of them, it has a lot to do with them.

As locals, even if they see that Qin Yu and the others have extraordinary backgrounds, the people of Tongfu Inn have to measure their details, not to mention that Qin Yu also teased their goddess in public,

Even if Feng Sanniang didn't care, the people who had received her favor couldn't treat it as if they didn't see it, so the shopkeeper planned to stare at Qin Yu to death.

Qin Yu thought that no one noticed when he sneaked out of the inn, but he didn't know that his every move was under the surveillance of this inconspicuous shopkeeper.

With a strength one level higher than Qin Yu, the shopkeeper easily followed behind Qin Yu, but Qin Yu, who was being followed, didn't know it, and was still complacent about his stealth.

When Qin Yu was shocked by the sound and didn't dare to move, the shopkeeper was also warned, but the warning was mixed with a hint of doubt, but it didn't stop the shopkeeper from following him.

When Qin Yu came to the joint location, the shopkeeper also wanted to follow in to see what he wanted, but after thinking about it, he didn't act rashly.

He knew that Qi Yufei and the three of them had extraordinary backgrounds, and they had big forces behind them, as the old saying goes, a strong dragon would not suppress the head snake, but if it was okay, the head snake would not provoke the strong dragon.

Qin Yu is the only one who is not inferior, and it has nothing to do with the forces behind him, so there is no need to make trouble for Tongfu Inn for Qin Yu alone.

Therefore, the shopkeeper did not destroy Qin Yu's task, but waited for Qin Yu to come out and knocked him unconscious, carried him to a place where no one was repaired, and by the way, found out the origin of the belt on Zhao Ping's body.

Doing so not only brought out the evil anger in this chest, but also offended Qi Yufei and them to death. You can also get some useful information, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone.

The shopkeeper thought that if the old man who secretly warned them knew that Qin Yu was teasing Feng Sanniang, he would agree to do so, but he didn't know that he had caused * trouble to himself and the Tongfu Inn.
