Crystal Coffin of Bodyguard

Chapter 29 Reversal

Guo Xu sighed inwardly, Cai Yu suddenly said in a low voice: "Guo Xu, where did this woman learn the ballads from Mobei?"

Guo Xu said indifferently: "We didn't know anything about her origin, but now we at least know something, don't we?"

After midnight, the entire Yuelai Inn was silent, only the single lamp in the woman's room was on.

The woman frowned, the ink-soaked brush hung in the air for a long time, and then put it back on the inkstone.

Duan Lingluo...Feng Ziyao...Black Wenxue...Youbo Luohua...

There seems to be some connection... there must be some connection!

That line, looming in the mist, is clearly visible at times, and disappears at times.

She knew it was there, just one step away, just one step away.

What, is she missing?Is there anything she should have thought about but not thought of?

The more he tried to think about it, the more he couldn't think of it, the woman's expression became more anxious, suddenly she pushed the paper in front of her heavily, walked to the door, and pushed open the door leaf.

The whole inn was pitch black.

The woman looked down and settled on the second room from the right on the second floor, which was Duan Lingluo's guest room.

In the darkness, the woman's eyes wandered coldly over the door of the guest room.

What is the relationship between Duan Lingluo and Feng Ziyao?Duan Lingluo has no disguise, she is not Feng Ziyao, but if she is not Feng Ziyao, who is she?

If she was Feng Ziyao, the woman shook her head and smiled wryly, how could this be possible.

Black blood... Ubo Luohua...

Black blood... Ubo Luohua...

Black Wenxue...Ubera...Yoko Vine...

Yejiao vine?

The woman's heart shuddered, she hurried into the house, holding Xiao Hao in trembling hands.

After a long time, the woman put down the pen, held up the rice paper full of words to her eyes, read each word, and suddenly loosened her hands, letting the rice paper fall to her feet.

Feng Ziyao, are you really so thoughtful?

There are assassins!

Guo Xu opened his eyes sharply, and before he could think much, he straightened up and broke through the window.

Almost at the same moment, Cheng Tieyi also rushed out of the door, holding a horizontal iron dragon stick in his hand, and rushed towards the room where Duan Lingluo and Caiyu lived.

It was pitch black inside the door, and before the lights were lit, Caiyu said anxiously: "Miss Duan, how are you? Miss Duan?"

Tie Yi said anxiously: "Cai Yu, how are you? Are you injured?"

Before Caiyu could answer, Guo Xu rushed in and said anxiously, "Caiyu, how are you?"

When Caiyu heard Guo Xu's voice, she felt relieved, and said, "I'm fine, it's Miss Duan, Miss Duan is injured."

Guo Xuen uttered a sound, and immediately there was a candle burst out, Tie Yi was lit on fire, and the candle was lit. When he was watching intently, Duan Lingluo fell into Caiyu's arms, his sleeve was covered with blood, and Caiyu held Duan tightly with one hand. Lingluo's wound, he said urgently: "Brother, bring Jinchuang medicine, that man, that man cut Miss Duan's arm, and shed a lot of blood."

Cheng Tieyi responded, turned around and walked away, almost bumping into Feng Ping who followed the sound, and the sixth master also hurried over with his clothes on, and asked anxiously: "Is it in the eldest lady's room? What happened?"

Cheng Tieyi didn't have time to tell Liu Ye in detail, and hurried back to the room to get the medicine. Guo Xu looked around the room, saw the window sash was broken, and said in a deep voice, "Caiyu, did that person break in through the window?"

Caiyu nodded and said: "Yes, that person's movement is very fast. I slept outside and rushed in when I heard the movement. I haven't seen him for a long time."

Guo Xuen let out a sound, walked to the window sash to look closely, and suddenly noticed that there was still a light in the woman's room on the third floor, thinking about the woman's behavior towards Duan Lingluo during the day, he was concerned, and said to Feng Ping : "You stay here, I'll go out and have a look."

He knocked lightly on the door, but there was no movement in the woman's room.

Guo Xu pondered for a while, and gently opened the door.

The lamp was still burning, but there was no one there. There was an inkstone and Xiaohao paper on the table. Guo Xu walked into the room. The ink in the inkstone was half dry, and there was something messy written on each piece of paper. Guo Xu picked up the top one. Zhang, see the words on it: "Nine movements and nine stillnesses, nine births and nine deaths, nine yin and nine yang, nine poisons and nine tonics."

Looking at the second picture again, it is the same as the first one, except that the first four words have changed slightly. It reads: "Nine statics and nine movements, nine lives and nine deaths, nine yins and nine yangs, nine poisons and nine supplements."

Guo Xu didn't understand why, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a sheet falling on the ground. When he picked it up, the first half page read: "Yejiao vine, ubola, ghost cover, cordyceps sinensis, red sesame, trillium, blood jerky flower , Gastrodia elata, and Tibetan incense.”

The writing on the second half of the sheet is more erratic, and it reads: "Scorpion, centipede, viper, spider, toad, black blood, lizard, butterfly, thorn."

The last stroke of the word "蟊" is unusually long, and the handwriting is soft and weak, it is obvious that the woman was extremely hesitant when writing.

What is the origin of this woman, and what is written on this paper?Was it she who stabbed Duan Lingluo?If it was her, why didn't she want to hurt Duan Lingluo's life when she attacked Duan Lingluo twice today?

Everything seems to be resolved only when the woman appears.

But, will she still appear?

Guo Xu thought for a moment, folded the paper carefully, and put it in his arms, when he heard footsteps behind him, when he looked back, it was Feng Ping.

Seeing that there was no one in the house, Feng Ping seemed to be expecting it all, and said, "You left too?"

When Guo Xu heard the word "Ye", his heart moved, and he said, "Yang Yue and the others?"

"I went to see their room just now. It's been cleaned up. It's been a while." Feng Ping looked around the room, walked slowly to the front of the desk, picked up the papers on the table, looked at Guo Xu, "What do you think?"

"What are you looking at? Is it this paper or tonight's assassin?" Guo Xu smiled, "Or is this woman coming and going without a trace?"

"You can still laugh." Feng Ping straightened his face, and then smiled, "Don't hide with me, what can you see?"

Guo Xu shook his head, and took a seat at the table: "I was just thinking, this trip, the Changfeng Escort Bureau is holding back everywhere, and the dart journey is halfway through, but you don't even know what your opponent looks like, don't you think it's a bit strange?"

Feng Ping didn't think so: "This can only mean that the opponent's move is superior, and we are at a disadvantage."

"I also admit that the opponent's chess is higher than ours, but Feng Ping, think about it, when did the opponent's chess surpass us?"

"When?" Feng Ping didn't expect Guo Xu to ask this question, but he was stopped by the question. After thinking for a moment, he hesitated and said: "The woman in purple appeared here..."

Guo Xu stopped Feng Ping from talking, "It's not her."

Feng Ping was puzzled: "Guo Xu, this woman acts strangely and mysteriously, why do you trust her so much?"

"Mystery is not the same as hostility."

Feng Ping was stunned, looking back at the woman's behavior, it seemed that he had no ill intentions towards the Changfeng Escort: "Could it be Tang Tai? He had already targeted the Escort when he was in Cangzhou, and even poisoned us...or Hao Chengyi ..."

Thinking about it didn't make any sense, so I couldn't help being discouraged: "Guo Xu, just say what you have to say, you know I don't like to tie these knots."

"I just have this speculation, and I dare not make a judgment." Guo Xu hesitated a little, "Feng Ping, have you ever thought about why this woman in purple is always targeting Duan Lingluo?"

"Wu Chu?" Feng Ping didn't know what the purple-clothed woman was doing during the day, so he couldn't help being a little surprised.

"At the banquet during the day, she intentionally caused Yang Yue to make trouble, and took advantage of the chaos to scratch Miss Duan's face; tonight, Miss Duan was assassinated by a mysterious man, and I had a hunch that it should be her. Just now I suddenly remembered that when I first arrived in Changle Town, Zhao Fengzhi went to test Miss Duan to see if she has martial arts..."

"But Zhao Fengzhi let go of his sword and severely injured Miss Duan," Feng Ping said, "Do you suspect that she did it too?"

"Don't you think it's strange that even Mr. Liu, who has a vengeance with Duan Lingluo, has never targeted Duan Lingluo like this. Why does she want to attack Duan Lingluo again and again?"

"And..." Feng Ping suddenly remembered something, "It seems that her intention is not to save Duan Lingluo's life."

Guo Xu nodded: "She took three shots, but she never hurt Duan Lingluo's life. Today's two shots are even more weird. She scratched Duan Lingluo's face and cut Duan Lingluo's arm. Why did she do this?"

"Unless..." Suddenly, Feng Ping thought of something, "She is trying to prove something."

Guo Xu nodded: "This is the move I want to talk about, the move where the opponent is higher than us."

Feng Ping was puzzled: "But you just said that the opponent is not her..."

Guo Xu knew that Feng Ping hadn't figured it out yet, so he smiled slightly: "I mean, the girl in purple always targeted Duan Lingluo because she doubted Duan Lingluo, but everyone in Changfeng Escort never doubted Duan Lingluo's Why do we never doubt Duan Lingluo?"
