Pei Zhe reacted quickly, quickly blew out the fire Zhezi, and pulled Jin Lingjiu to hide in a corner.

The person who came did not bring any lighting, and could only hear the sound of footsteps getting closer, and finally stopped beside the statue.

Pei Zhe and Jin Lingjiu held their breath subconsciously. The space here is much larger than the passage when they first came in. The two of them are about two meters away from the statue.

At a distance not far away, the heavy breathing of the person coming could be heard, but nothing could be seen.

The hiding corner is leaning against the wall, Jin Lingjiu is below, Pei Zhe is pressing on top of him, the bodies of the two are tightly attached to each other, their sides are close to each other, even if they move a little, they can touch each other.

The rubbing of the cloth would make a sound, so the two of them could only keep this posture motionless in order not to be noticed by others.

Through two layers of clothes and chests, the heartbeats of two people collided together like drums.

After the statue was shattered, the stench of rotting corpses could no longer be concealed, and quickly dissipated.

The ventilation of this porcelain kiln is not very good, the long passage prevents the smell from escaping, not long after the statue was smashed, the breath is full of disgusting smell.

Pei Zhe felt as if he had been locked in a morgue, with rotting corpses piled up next to him. He endured and endured, his stomach churned, and he couldn't help but want to vomit.

The faint scent of plum blossoms carried a hint of warmth, which formed a strong contrast with the stench of the rotting corpse. Pei Zhe lowered his head slightly, and buried himself in Jin Lingjiu's neck, with his entire face almost stuck to the warm skin. .

Jin Lingjiu's body has always been fragrant. It's not that Pei Zhe has never seen other people use spices, but no one smells as good as his, with a suitable concentration and a non-greasy aroma.

Expensiveness is naturally one of the reasons, but Pei Zhe knew in his heart that there were other factors besides this.

The sound of footsteps approached a little more, and the person standing next to the statue walked towards this side step by step. He walked very lightly and slowly, as if he was probing or seducing.

Suddenly, someone seemed to have kicked something, and then there was a sound of bones, and there was an echo in the empty kiln, the sound was amplified and repeated non-stop.

Pei Zhe frowned slightly, guessing what it was.

—the head of the statue.

The arms around his waist tightened tightly, and the two of them stuck together. Pei Zhe could feel that when the tip of his nose touched Jin Lingjiu's skin, he trembled slightly.

Other than that, there was no other reaction.

Maybe it was because he was worried about not being discovered, or maybe it was because of other things, anyway, Pei Zhe didn't care, he was caught by the fragrance of plum blossoms, and there was only one thing left in his mind, and he was not pushed away.

What a cleanliness Jinling Jiu is, how can he tolerate others getting close?

Pei Zhe thought proudly that he was indeed special.

However, his complacency didn't last long, because in the next second, Jin Lingjiu pushed him away.

Before Pei Zhe could react, he was pushed to the side by a strong force. Jin Lingjiu stood up and slapped the side: "Since we have been spotted, why don't you act in a fair manner? You two hide your heads and show your tails like this!" , is not what a gentleman does."

With that said, he turned around, turned his back to Pei Zhe, protected the person behind him, and raised his hands at the same time to catch the attack of the incoming person.

Pei Zhe realized instantly that they were fooled.

It was wrong from the beginning, not one person came, but two.

And they fell into a misunderstanding: After blowing out the fire, the person who came was as invisible as they were.

In fact, the night vision ability of the visitors is very good. From the very beginning, they were found to be hiding by the side, deliberately creating a false posture, making them believe that there is only one person standing next to the statue, so as to relax their vigilance, and then carry out a sneak attack .

Pei Zhe couldn't see what was going on, he could only hear the sound of hand-to-hand combat, the fight was in full swing, Jin Lingjiu had one against two, judging from the current development, it seemed that he was not at a disadvantage.

Pei Zhe didn't join the battle rashly. Jin Lingjiu is not someone who cares about the situation. If he can't cope, he will definitely speak out.

He quickly calmed down, thinking about the identity of the visitor.

They were imprisoned here by Feng Tingyu. If they hadn't been following them all the time, they would definitely not have found this place. They did it without saying a word. Obviously, they knew them. In this Baihua City, there is only one person who meets the requirements - sending a letter of invitation who they come over.

There is no doubt that this is an opportunity, if only one of them is left, dead or alive, to find out about the man behind the scenes.

Pei Zhe wasn't sure what level Jin Lingjiu's martial arts was at. If the two fell victim and wanted to escape, would he be able to keep them.

Pei Zhe is not a person who will let the opportunity slip away. With a thought, he pinched his throat and shouted: "Ninth brother, we must keep them alive! In front of this official, you must not hurt anyone!"

He heard a short laugh in the darkness: "Pei Lang, you underestimate me."

Pei Zhe breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that Jin Lingjiu understood what he meant.

In order not to startle the enemy, he intentionally did not tell the truth. The two called each other several times. "Ninth Brother" is undoubtedly an extremely dishonest one. Both of them knew in their hearts that each address had a different meaning. .

And this one, certainly will not be related to their position.

This is irony.

Pei Zhezai told Jin Lingjiu that even if these two people were killed, they would not be allowed to escape.

Pei Zhe knows that he is not a foolish person, and it is not that he has killed people before.

The other party tried their best to lure him to Baihua City, wanting to provoke a war between Fanbang and the imperial court. Even now, they even sent people to follow him secretly, intending to take his and Jin Lingjiu's lives. If he is so aggressive, he will naturally not retreat again and again. .

For some reason, he was unwilling to make a move, but if Jin Lingjiu lost, he didn't think he would let the two of them leave.

Facts have proved that Pei Zhe really underestimated Jin Lingjiu.

When the sound of fighting stopped, Pei Zhe immediately blew on the torch, and the faint light of the torch illuminated everything that happened. He looked at the masked man kneeling and falling in front of him, his face was full of astonishment.

Jin Lingjiu killed one person and left another alive.

"Why are you in a daze, come here for an interrogation."

Jin Lingjiu controlled the masked man who was still alive. He twisted the masked man's arm back and took it off directly. Then he stepped heavily on the masked man's ankle twice, and finally pulled it off. The veil of the masked man.

The action is neat and decisive, without any sloppiness.

The masked man froze for a moment, the pain in his limbs made him gasp, his face was pale, and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Compared with this person, the masked man lying on the ground didn't look so painful. His neck was twisted at an extremely tricky angle, his face was covered, and his exposed eyes widened in horror, as if he couldn't believe it. What happened.

Pei Zhe swallowed silently.

This was the first time he saw Jinling Jiu make a move, a real move, although he didn't see the specific move, but what is certain is that Jinling Jiu's martial arts is very strong, definitely not inferior to Zuo Pingyun and others, even better than them are much higher.

Of course, what left the deepest impression on him was Jin Lingjiu's treatment of the two masked men. One died and the other was injured. The methods could be called cruel.

Pei Zhe faintly felt that something was wrong, this was not like what Jinling Jiu would do, since he met him, the Jiu Gongzi he had seen in his eyes was like a bright moon star, never stained with blood, why did he act so viciously today?

He couldn't figure out why, so he could only write it down for the time being.

Jin Lingjiu stepped back: "I'm a little tired from the fight, I'll take it easy, and I'll leave it to you."

Worry flashed across Pei Zhe's eyes: "Are you not injured?"

"Are you joking?" Jin Lingjiu stood with his hands behind his back in a slightly awkward posture, "With just these two people, can they hurt me?"

His tone was arrogant, his face full of disdain.

Only then did Pei Zhe feel relieved, and smiled determinedly: "It's good that you have nothing to do, leave the next thing to me, and you won't be burdened for nothing. The people hiding in Baihua City will definitely have nowhere to escape."

Jin Lingjiu licked his lips: "Then rely on Mr. Pei."

After he finished speaking, he leaned against the wall, closed his eyes and rested, and did not intervene in Pei Zhe's interrogation of the masked man.

Pei Zhe did not directly interrogate the living masked man, but first looked at the dead man lying on the ground. The dead man could not speak and could only look for clues from his body.

Although the clues obtained will not be more than those of the living, the authenticity of the information given by the dead is much higher.

Pei Zhe was not afraid of getting dirty, so he took off the masked dead man's clothes and searched him carefully.

It's a pity that there are not many things found. Except for some wound medicine and weapons, there is nothing else on this person.

The wound medicine bottle is the most common porcelain bottle on the market. Pei Zhe doesn't have Jinling Jiu's sensitive sense of smell, so he can't smell anything special about the wound medicine. Take a look at the formula and effect of this wound medicine.

The weapon found was a short dagger, with a silvery white body and a sharp blade. Except for a small word engraved on the handle, there was no extra decoration or pattern.

The characters on it were too small, and Pei Zhe didn't recognize the characters after reading it for a long time.

"Has the trial started yet?"

Jin Lingjiu was resting with his eyes closed just now, but he couldn't help opening his eyes because he didn't hear the sound.

Pei Zhe subconsciously put the searched things away, and shook the stripped clothes at him: "I just searched myself."

Jin Lingjiu had a complicated expression: "Are you searching for the body of the dead?"

The shock in his tone couldn't be concealed at all, as if he couldn't understand how Pei Zhe could do it.

Pei Zhe was so embarrassed by the sight that he couldn't help but argue: "...Although he is dead, he just died and his body is still hot."

Jin Lingjiu raised his voice: "Isn't that a corpse?"

Pei Zhe: "..."

He knew that he couldn't explain it clearly to a clean freak, so he planned to use practical actions to expose the problem, so he began to pick off the clothes of another masked man, and he did not forget to emphasize: "This time it's not a corpse, it's still alive! "

The author has something to say:
