[Xianjian 5] Encounter and meet with Zi Zang

?Chapter 39 Blood-stained Kaifeng wave rises again

After noon, Taiwu returned to the mountain.The Shushan disciples who participated in the martial arts competition without permission all tensed up, as if they were facing a big enemy, for fear that they would find themselves on the head.

However, in fact, there was not much investigation this time, only because Taiwu got a serious news-several murders occurred in Henan Province recently, and the dead were all respectable and decent people in the martial arts.The Huangfu family of the Four Great Aristocratic Families in Kaifeng, Henan Province had to seek help from Shushan after repeated investigations to no avail.

After discussion, the Seven Saints decided to assign Yunfan and Yurou to Kaifeng to help find out the truth.Now that these two people have gone, Long You and Xiaoman naturally follow them as their duty.

At this time, it was late autumn.

The thick autumn will dye the whole Kaifeng into a golden yellow.The bleak autumn wind sends maple leaves down on the road paved with bluestone slabs, and you can still hear the crisp creaking sound when stepping on them.

Accompanied by such creaking sounds, the four of them walked all the way to Huangfu's house.

When the disciple of Huangfu guarding the gate saw a stranger approaching, he immediately raised his guard: "Who is it?"

Hey, the opening remarks of the four great families are all the same?Yunfan couldn't help thinking.

At this time, a deep voice came from inside Huangfu's house: "It's okay, these are friends from Shushan."

Immediately, Yunfan and the others saw a tall middle-aged man coming out of the door, apparently he had been waiting for a long time.He exudes a mature and stable atmosphere, dressed in a mature and sophisticated manner, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, it can be vaguely seen from the brows that he was once a heroic youth, but now there are a few wrinkles on his face that has experienced vicissitudes.His whole body was filled with awe-inspiring righteousness, and people couldn't help admiring him.

Presumably this is Huangfu Zhuo who is in charge of Huangfu's family's Renyi Villa. Looking at this person, even though he hasn't had a close friendship yet, Yunfan secretly admires him.

For more than ten years, Huangfu Zhuo's heroic deeds have long been spread throughout the world.It is said that he once traveled all over the country with his close friends, and in troubled times, he was in charge of Huangfu's family, and joined forces with Shushan and other families to seal the demon king.During the Taiping period, he was famous all over the world for his uprightness and uprightness.Huangfu Zhuoqi really lived up to the word "benevolence and righteousness".

"Master Huangfu." The four hurriedly stepped forward to salute the senior and announced their names.

Huangfu Zhuo had no pretensions at all, he clasped his fists in return, and immediately led them into the village himself.

There are also large areas of maple leaves planted in Renyi Villa, and the red maple covers the manor.In late autumn, the fiery red is gorgeous, and the forest is full of dyes, as if it has condensed some endless ups and downs and emotions, crying faintly, longing for never to be separated, but helpless.

The autumn wind is blowing.

Huangfu Zhuo walked in front, his face was firm and steady, and he said: "Thank you for your help. The recent murders in Henan have attracted the attention of martial arts, and now is the time for everyone to be in danger. Only by finding out who is behind the scenes Peace of mind."

All four nodded in agreement.

Huangfu Zhuo nodded slightly, and told them the details of the murder.

The victims were all killed without being noticed by others, and there was no obvious trauma on their bodies, but their faces turned purple after death, and their death conditions were horrific, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying.

"No trauma? Then how did they die?" Xiaoman asked.

"Poisoned." Huangfuzhuo said, this is the result of repeated autopsy on their bodies.

"Poisoned?" Several people were startled.

"That's right," Huangfu Zhuo said, with deep worry in his eyes, "and this method is very similar to a person I knew before..."

"Oh? Sect Master Huangfu knows that person?" Long You asked thoughtfully.

Huangfu Zhuo shook his head again: "I'm not sure, that's why I asked Shushan for help."

As he spoke, he changed the subject.

"Just yesterday—ashamed to say—a disciple of Renyi Villa also died, and his body was parked in the backyard hut." Huangfu Zhuo led them into the backyard.

Although they were mentally prepared at the beginning, Yunfan and the others couldn't help gasping when they saw the expression on the corpse.

In the picture that came into view, the dead man's facial features were almost twisted together, his mouth was opened wide. It was obvious that he was in great pain when he died. Coupled with the already bruised face, it was creepy.Yun Fan and Long You are alright, but the two girls' complexions are pale, especially Xiao Man who has been hiding behind Long You and trembling.

"Are you okay?" Yun Fan asked Yu Rou softly.

"It's okay." Yurou reluctantly calmed down, stepped forward to check the condition of the corpse, and after a while, she raised her head and said to Huangfu Zhuo, "Mr. Huangfu, he was poisoned by Miao Jiang's poison."

"Miao Jiang again?!"

Huangfu Zhuo didn't reply yet, but Xiaoman exclaimed.

"The old housekeeper of Folding Sword Villa...has also been poisoned by Gu!" She held her head and said again, she never thought that this incident would be related to the last one.

"Yes, but there are differences between the two." Yurou agreed, "Although the poison the old steward suffered was painful, it was not fatal. But this time..." She turned to the deceased again, " It is an extremely poisonous Gu poison, and those who are poisoned will die here immediately."

Hearing this, Huangfu Zhuo gasped.

Xiaoman frowned and said: "There are many schools in Miaojiang, and there has always been a dispute between the white Miao and the black Miao. Our Wuyue Temple belongs to the Bai Miao branch. Such insidious methods are mostly done by the Black Miao people."

"But...if someone from Miao Jiang did it, why did he travel thousands of miles to Kaifeng, Henan Province to poison him? What's his intention?" Long You always thought carefully.

And Huangfu Zhuowu muttered from the side: "So, it is really possible that she did it?"

Long You asked: "Is it the acquaintance that Huangfu sect master just mentioned?"

"Hmm..." Huangfu Zhuo sighed deeply, closed his eyes, and said slowly, "This person's name is Jie Luo, he was one of the eight great venerables of the Jingtian Sect back then, and he called himself... Poison Shadow."

How could he forget this woman.

It was her who killed his father. He will never forget this person.

Huangfu Zhuo was too familiar with Poison Shadow's technique, so he could see the disdain at a glance.Especially after communicating with Ouyang Hui, Huang Fuzhuo learned from Ouyang Hui that Poison Shadow had also attacked Zhejian Villa before.

"Then, does the head of Huangfu Sect think that the murderer is Poison Shadow?" After listening to Huangfu Zhuo's narration, Yun Fan asked seriously.

However, Huangfu Zhuo shook his head.

"If the matter was that simple, I wouldn't ask your faction for help..." He said to the four people one by one, "There are many doubts about this matter. First, compare the poisoning incident of the housekeeper of Zhejian Villa, which happened in Henan Province The few poisonous killings in China are obviously much more vicious. Second, in addition to the poisonous killings, two people died under sharp weapons. This method is very similar to the bloody hands of the Jingtian Sect. But as far as I know, The bloody hand is still imprisoned in the secret cave by the two priests of Shushan Qingshi Yushu, and has not escaped. That's why I hope to use the power of Shushan to arrest the murderer."

"We will definitely live up to the entrustment of the head of Huangfu Sect, and give justice to the deceased." Yun Fan cupped his hands and said solemnly.

Huangfu Zhuo nodded: "If you need help, just let me know."

After Huangfu Zhuo left, several people inspected the corpse again, questioned the people in the villa, and then went to the place where the disciple's body was found according to the news, but found nothing else. Be careful, move quickly, and leave no trace.

After an afternoon of investigation, the four of them are exchanging ideas in Yunfan's guest room.

Xiaoman was the first to put forward an idea: "I think someone wants to blame Poison Shadow and Bloody Hand."

"Xiaoman makes sense. Could it be that the real culprit is the enemy of the Jingtian Sect and wants to ruin their reputation?" Yun Fan tried hard to use his brain, "What is this Jingtian Sect like? I always feel that many things will happen. Get in touch with it."

"To put blame on a sect that no longer exists?" Yurou shook her head, "And according to others, the reputation of the Jingtian Sect is already bad enough."

Xiaoman scratched his head: "Well... Hey Longyou, you are always the most thoughtful, why don't you talk today?"

That's right, after listening to Xiaoman's words, Yun Fan and Yurou also looked at Long You who was leaning against the door frame.

"Ah, what?" Long You seemed to be thinking about something, when he heard his own name, he was slightly taken aback, "I... I don't have a clue?"

"Really?" Xiaoman said suspiciously.

"Anyway!" Yun Fan waved his fist vigorously, "The previous murders all happened at night, so I'll keep the vigil tonight!"

"This method is relatively stupid, but you can try it." Long You returned to his previous appearance, and took the conversation with his hands spread out, "I will take turns with you."

"Then we also..." Yurou Xiaoman followed, also wanting to help.

"No, you guys go to rest, the two of us are enough." Yun Fan waved his hand, reluctant to let Yu Rou get tired.

"Exactly, it's demeanor to let women take risks." Long You clasped his arms around his chest, and also vetoed it with a smile.
