[Douluo] Demon God's Road to Godhood

Chapter 40 Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Snake

He didn't know how long he slept until he was awakened by a pungent smell. Feng Tianyu opened his eyes and found that it was already dawn. Tang Feijian and Hou Fangyu, who were drunk on the ground with him last night, also woke up.

Feng Tianyu frowned and said, "What did it smell like just now?"

Tang Xiaomei smiled and said: "It's my Tang Sect's unique hangover and fragrance."

Sure enough, she was holding a thumb-sized white jade bottle of suet in her hand, and the pungent smell was emanating from the bottle.

"It smells so bad." Hou Fangyu almost felt like gagging.

Tang Feijian knew that his sister was making trouble again and scolded: "Little sister, you are acting up again."

Tang Xiaomei made a face, stuck out her tongue and said, "I didn't mean to disturb your sweet dream. It was really an emergency, so I woke you up."

In a hurry?Tang Feijian asked: "What is so urgent?"

Tang Xiaomei said: "There was a murder!"

Homicide?Feng Tianyu, Hou Fangyu and Tang Feijian were all shocked.

Tang Feijian asked: "What happened?"

Tang Xiaomei said: "The king of the Golden Blade Sect, Jin Hu, and the three disciples of the Golden Sword Sect were all killed."

As soon as these words came out, the three of them were shocked, and the alcohol bug remaining in their minds disappeared instantly.

"How did this happen? Who did it?"

Tang Xiaomei shook her head.

"I don't know. Why did the boatman knock on the door when he was delivering the meal this morning but it didn't open. Finally, he pried open the door and found that they were all dead in their rooms. Wudang Chisongzi Taoist asked the boatman to stop the boat and ask everyone on board to When everyone gathered together, I found the three of you and found that you were drunk to death, so I used incense to wake you up."

Only then did the three people know that such an important thing had happened on the ship at this time.

"That's it, let's go take a look."

The three of them got up and walked down the cabin with Tang Xiaomei to the place where the murder occurred.

The members of the Golden Blade Sect opened two rooms, one for Wang Jinhu and one for the three Golden Sword Sect disciples.

At this time, all four people died tragically in their rooms, and their throats were cut with sharp blades.

Feng Tianyu couldn't help lamenting the fickle changes in life. Yesterday he was a good and healthy person, but today he was brutally killed.

When Feng Tianyu and four others arrived, everyone on the boat was already present.

Scarlet Fairy coughed and said, "Now that everyone is here, it's time to find the murderer."

Hou Fangyu said: "How to find the murderer? What if the murderer has escaped?"

Scarlet Fairy said: "It was possible before you came, but now that you are here, there are not many people on the boat. They are all here. How could the murderer escape?"

Hou Fangyu said: "Perhaps someone from outside the boat sneaked into the boat in the middle of the night and killed the person. It is not certain that they left again."

Everyone thinks it makes sense.

Scarlet Fairy said: "You are right, but it does not rule out that the people on the boat did it. Only by proving everyone's innocence can we prove that it was done by people outside."

Tang Xiaomei said: "But I don't know how to prove it?"

Scarlet Fairy said: "After the autopsy, it can be known that Wang Jinhu and the four died at the ugly time. You have proven that you could not have killed Wang Jinhu at that time."

Yesterday, Wang Jinhu and Tang Feijian fought hard, so everyone looked at Tang Feijian.

Tang Feijian naturally understood everyone's suspicious looks and said: "I drank late into the night with Brother Feng and Brother Hou last night, and we were drunk on the deck. My little sister just woke up the three of us, so there is no way we could kill anyone. "

Scarlet Fairy said: "So the three of you slept on the deck last night?"

"Yes."

Scarlet Fairy nodded: "Then where was Miss Tang last night?"

Tang Xiaomei said: "I went back to the room to sleep after eating last night."

"So no one can prove that you were sleeping when you were ugly last night, and you could have killed someone."

Tang Xiaomei said anxiously: "Taoist priest, please don't accuse people unjustly."

Scarlet Fairy said: "I'm assuming that everyone is suspect, including the three of you." He pointed at Feng Tianyu, Tang Feijian and Hou Fangyu.

"No one can prove whether you are drunk, only you know best, so some of you may pretend to be drunk and get up in the middle of the night to kill!"

Feng Tianyu nodded and smiled: "It is indeed possible."

Scarlet Fairy looked at the four masked women.

The four masked women didn't wait for him to say what he said, and said, "We went to bed after returning from the dining room last night and did not leave the room."

Scarlet Fairy looked at several boatmen and crew members who also went to bed early, but one of the crew members said: "I stayed on the deck all night long."

Oh, Scarlet Fairy said: "What can you see?"

The guy said, "I didn't see anything."

Hou Fangyu asked anxiously: "Then did you see the three of us drinking on the deck?"

The waiter said: "Yes, the three guests were drinking on the deck and got drunk when they were young."

Scarlet Fairy said: "Are you sure?"

The guy said: "They were drinking at the stern of the ship. I just paid attention and didn't see very clearly, but the three guest officers were indeed drunk and motionless on the deck."

Feng Tianyu was very proud and said: "How about it, we are not murderers!"

Scarlet Fairy glared at Feng Tianyu and said coldly: "The ship's crew stayed on the deck all night without sleeping. This also proves that no one sneaked into the ship to kill anyone last night, and the murderer was among us."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Tang Xiaomei said: "We have already talked about it. Now let's ask a few Taoist priests to tell us what they were doing when they were ugly last night."

Everyone looked at Fairy Chi and the six Wudang disciples.

Scarlet Fairy snorted coldly and said: "Of course we are sleeping too."

"So, Taoist Priest, you may also kill people."

Scarlet Fairy said angrily: "Miss Tang, don't talk nonsense. How could I, a famous Wudang sect, kill a member of the Golden Sword Sect?"

Tang Xiaomei smiled and said: "You say you are a good person, but you suspect that we are murderers. How can there be such truth in the world? You Wudang people are so benevolent and righteous in the world."

Scarlet Fairy was speechless, and a young Taoist priest said: "My name as Wudang is benevolent and righteous, and no one in the world knows about it. What's more, we have no grudges against Jindaomen and Wang Jinhu, so why should we kill him! Yesterday, however, Some people who have a dispute with Wang Jinhu may be murderers."

Scarlet Fairy cast an approving look at the young Taoist priest.

The ones who had a dispute with Scarlet Fairy last night were nothing more than the four masked women and the Tang clan brothers and sisters.

Fairy Chi said with a proud smile: "Miss Tang, your brother and sister had a dispute with Wang Jinhu last night, and Brother Tang was drunk on the deck. Only you can kill Wang Jinhu to repay your displeasure."

Tang Xiaomei angrily yelled: "You are talking nonsense"

Scarlet Fairy said: "Who in the world doesn't know that the Tang Sect in Sichuan is ruthless and good at using evil spirits to pervert the Tao, so it is very likely that you killed Wang Jinhu!"

Tang Xiaomei's face showed an angry look, and she said bitterly: "You dare to frame me falsely, I will not be polite to you."

He struck out with a palm and hit the Red Fairy.

"Yellow-haired girl, you dare to attack me!"

The Tang Sect was good at using poison, but Scarlet Fairy didn't dare to take it hard. With a wave of her sleeve, a strong wind blew over Tang Xiaomei.

Fortunately, Feng Tianyu on the side took action in time to catch Tang Xiaomei, so that she would not fall.

When Tang Xiaomei saw Feng Tianyu hugging her, her face suddenly turned red and she said angrily: "Let go!"

Feng Tianyu smiled faintly and let go of his hand. Tang Xiaomei fell to the ground with an "ouch".

"You actually let go."

Everyone was not amused by the flirting between the two, and they all glared at Scarlet Fairy.

Although Tang Xiaomei fell down, she was not seriously injured. She got up from the ground. She had just learned the martial arts from Scarlet Fairy. She did not dare to say any more and shrank behind Tang Feijian.

Seeing that Miss Tang was fine, Tang Feijian cast a grateful look at Feng Tianyu, then glared at Fairy Scarlet, and said coldly: "The Taoist Master is from Wudang, but he bullies a little girl. Is this what Wudang calls benevolence and righteousness in the world?"

Scarlet Fairy sneered: "Master Tang, please don't talk nonsense. Everyone saw just now that your sister made the first move. If I hadn't shown mercy just now, how could your sister have been able to stand still?"

If Feng Tianyu hadn't caught Tang Xiaomei, the consequences were unknown, and everyone secretly cursed Scarlet Fairy for being a hypocrite.

Just listen to Chi Xianzi continue: "Although Miss Tang was unreasonable just now, I, sir, do not care about the faults of others and forgive Miss Tang's impulsive behavior. However, Wang Jinhu's death is a big deal and we cannot just let it go."

His words clearly identified Tang Xiaomei as the murderer.

Tang Xiaomei was so angry that she wanted to take action again. If Tang Feijian hadn't stopped her, she would have rushed forward and started fighting again.

Not everyone agrees with Scarlet Fairy's view. Tang Feijian said: "How can Priest Scarlet Fairy insist that my sister is the murderer? Anyone with a clear eye can see that Wang Jinhu died with a sword, and my sister is not the one who wields the sword. , it is impossible to kill Wang Jinhu, not to mention that she is not Wang Jinhu’s opponent, and it is even more impossible to kill Wang Jinhu and one of his subordinates with one sword without alerting the people in the next room."

The case has twists and turns, and new doubts have arisen.

Hou Fangyu said: "Brother Tang is right. It looks like the wound was sealed with a sword. The murderer must be a master of swordsmanship. There are only a few Taoist priests and Brother Tang present who can wield swords."

Upon hearing this, Scarlet Fairy said angrily: "Fart, how dare you suspect that I am a murderer? I have been walking around in the world for more than [-] years, how can I bear such humiliation!"

As he spoke, he struck Hou Fangyu with his palm.

The palm was very powerful. Everyone knew that Hou Fangyu was a scholar and his hands were not strong enough to tie a chicken. With 20 years of skill, Scarlet Fairy could not survive with just one palm.

Seeing that he was about to be killed on the spot, Feng Tianyu suddenly took action in time and struck out with a palm to face the Scarlet Fairy.

But after hearing the sound of "snap" and the two palms facing each other, it was difficult for the Scarlet Fairy to resist, and she took a few steps back before stopping.

But Feng Tianyu's body was like a rock, standing still and calm.

Everyone was shocked and looked at the scarred young man. His delicate facial features and several slender scars revealed his indescribable handsomeness.

Scarlet Fairy looked at him with wide eyes and asked Feng Tianyu, "What's your name?"

Feng Tianyu said: "I haven't seen you for five years. I didn't expect that the Taoist Master's body would be so weak. I should take more supplements and be less angry."

Scarlet Fairy wanted to cry but had no tears. He was in his prime, and his martial arts had improved greatly in the past few years. Wherever his body was weak, Feng Tianyu's martial arts had improved rapidly.

After listening to Feng Tianyu's words, a young man among the Taoist priests said in surprise: "You are Amao!"

Feng Tianyu smiled and said: "Loach, long time no see, you are becoming more and more handsome!"

It turned out that the young man was Zhao Tiangang. He wanted to say something to Feng Tianyu, but he stopped talking when he saw the cold light of Scarlet Fairy's sharp sword.

Scarlet Fairy said: "I didn't expect your martial arts to improve so quickly, but you can never think of covering up the murderer just because of your superior martial arts."

Apart from the seven Taoist priests, the only person on the ship who used swords as weapons was Tang Feijian.

Scarlet Fairy's words naturally meant something, Tang Feijian said: "The ship's crew already said that I was drunk on the deck last night, but how could I kill someone?"

Chi Xianzi asked the shop assistant: "Did you really see the three of them lying on the deck?"

The shop assistant on duty last night replied: "I just took a look and found that they were indeed drunk. I don't know what happened next."

Scarlet Fairy laughed after hearing this: "How about it, Mr. Tang Clan Master, how can you deny it?"

Scarlet Fairy first blamed Tang Xiaomei, and now she suspected that she was the murderer. Even though Tang Feijian valued peace, his patience had its limit.

With a loud shout, he took out the Scarlet Fairy.

Scarlet Fairy was afraid of the Tangmen's poison and did not dare to fight with her hands. She drew her sword out of its sheath and slashed at the hand that Tang Fei's sword struck.

With his bare hands, Tang Feijian's hand was about to be cut off by Scarlet Fairy. Suddenly Tang Feijian's sword hand shook, and a foot-long dagger flew out of his sleeve and shot towards Scarlet Fairy's throat.

As expected of the Tang Sect's hidden weapon, this sudden blow was unimaginable.

If she was stabbed in the throat by a flying sword, Scarlet Fairy would only die, while Tang Feijian would only have one of his hands chopped off.

But the current offensive is like water being thrown out, how can we take it back?

A life, a hand, seeing another bloody and tragic scene, but no one expected that Feng Tianyu would take action again, but saw that his left hand was like a flying eagle's claws, grabbing the dagger that was shot at the Red Fairy, and stretched out two fingers on his right hand, Clamp the long sword of Red Fairy.

The tense situation collapsed in an instant, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Scarlet Fairy, who had just saved her life from the gate of hell, let out a big breath.

"Turn a fight into friendship, why should the two of you fight to the death?"

Feng Tianyu let go of Scarlet Fairy's sword and was about to return the dagger to Tang Feijian, but his hand suddenly froze.

Everyone's eyes also looked at the dagger in Feng Tianyu's hand.

The dagger was as thin as a cicada's wing, but there were traces of blood on it.

The sword did not hurt the Red Fairy when it flew out, but when did the blood on the sword get stained?

Even Tang Feijian himself was extremely surprised. He loved the dagger blade very much and would often take out the dagger and polish it until it was shiny.

But where did the blood stains on the sword come from now?

At this time, everyone's eyes were looking at Tang Feijian.

"As expected, you are a murderer, Young Master Tang. What else do you have to say?"

Tang Feijian argued hurriedly: "Impossible, I didn't kill anyone."

Scarlet Fairy smiled proudly and said: "The wound on Wang Jinhu's body exactly matches your hidden sword. How can you deny it?"

Indeed, the sword blade matched the wound of the deceased. Although everyone could not believe it, they had to believe it.

Chi Xianzi continued: "Yesterday you had a dispute with Wang Jinhu. You had a grudge, so you killed him to silence him. Your motive for killing was revenge."

With conclusive physical evidence and a reasonable motive for the murder, even Tang Xiaomei couldn't help but suspect that Tang Feijian was the murderer.
