88. Grey Robe Reappearance(1/2)
Poof!
The boning knife pierced Jin Zixuan's thigh.
Jin Zixuan's eyes popped out and he was about to open his mouth to scream, but even though he opened his mouth wide, it was as if something was stuck in his throat and no sound could come out.
Chu Yunqing pulled out the boning knife, and blood spurted from Jin Zixuan's leg.
"The more you hesitate, the more blood you will bleed. If you don't cooperate, I will poke a few holes in your body to see how much blood you have."
Chu Yunqing said calmly, without any urgency or murderous intention in his tone, as if he was happy to spend so much time and enjoyed torturing others.
Cold sweat broke out on Jin Zixuan's forehead. He was gasping for air, and his leg that was stabbed began to tremble involuntarily.
"How did you know that he went to Kanglefang? Who gave you the news and who asked you to find him?" Chu Yunqing asked.
Jin Zixuan's eyes flickered, hesitant.
It's not that he doesn't want to say it, but he doesn't dare to say it.
In fact, he had no idea about the identity of the mysterious man who suddenly came to him last night. Just like the guy in front of him, he came to him silently and then threatened him.
And the reason why he didn't dare to say anything was because he was afraid that if the other party found out about this, he would come and take his life.
After all, the person they are looking for this time is from the Shenwu sect, and they have already been involved in the incident at the dock last night, so they will definitely not be able to escape.
Therefore, at this time, he was considered to be on the side of the mysterious person. He could only help the other person to do things, and then find the person. Even if he had made a contribution, the matter would be solved naturally, and no one would know about it.
But the person in front of him is obviously a member of the Shenwu Sect. If he tells the other party, he will not be able to get along with both sides.
Without him, Jin Zixuan didn't think that the person in front of him could fight against the group of people last night.
The Shenwu Sect's ship was anchored at the Shendu Pier. Even he only found out about it later, which shows how secretive the matter was. In addition, this matter also involved the eunuchs in the palace. What was the matter?
Let the people from the sect take over?
Did the eunuch steal something from the palace, or did he know some secrets that should not be revealed? Jin Zixuan did not dare to think about it. He only knew that no matter how secret the matter was, the eunuchs were killed, and the people from the Shenwu sect were also killed.
This shows the seriousness of the involvement behind it. Behind the mysterious man must be a force that he cannot afford to offend.
Therefore, Jin Zixuan did not dare to say.
Chu Yunqing saw the hesitant look in his eyes, and the various entanglements in his eyes made him feel upset.
He casually brought salt from the side.
Jin Zixuan's eyes changed.
Chu Yunqing didn't hesitate at all, and stabbed Jin Zixuan's other leg with another knife, and then directly drew the knife and poured salt on it.
The ground salt floated down like snowflakes, mixed with the bright red blood, making it even scarlet.
Jin Zixuan clenched his teeth, his veins stood out, his face flushed, his mouth opened wide, and he finally made a roaring sound. He was tied up, and his body was trembling and struggling desperately.
Chu Yunqing's fingers were like electricity, and he tapped him a few more times. This time, Jin Zixuan couldn't even move without saying a word.
"I don't have much patience. I know what you are worried about, but if you think about it carefully, if you don't tell me now, your life will be lost." Chu Yunqing said, "But if you tell me, I may not be able to kill all those people.
Woolen cloth?"
Jin Zixuan's eyes moved with forbearance and hatred.
Chu Yunqing knew that he had guessed correctly. There was someone behind Jin Zixuan, and it was not someone he was willing to sacrifice his life for.
"Of course, you don't have to say it." He smiled.
Jin Zixuan felt a chill in his heart. He hesitated and blinked his eyelids hard.
Chu Yunqing unlocked his acupuncture points.
Jin Zixuan bent over and gasped in pain.
Chu Yunqing took out the golden sore medicine from his arms and sprinkled it on the wound casually. This time, Jin Zixuan rolled his eyes in pain, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he almost fainted.
"I, I don't know who he is." Jin Zixuan gasped, but as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the expression of the person in front of him change slightly.
He hurriedly said: "I'm not lying to you, I really don't know who he is. He came suddenly last night, coming in as silently as you. As soon as I opened my eyes, he was standing by the bedside looking at me."
Speaking of this, Jin Zixuan couldn't hide the horror in his eyes, and it was obvious that he was still frightened every time he thought about it.
"He asked me to find someone, but when I refused, he glanced at Ying'er. Ying'er was my concubine. She also woke up last night and then died." Jin Zixuan stumbled and said: "Just looking.
One look at her and she died."
Chu Yunqing frowned. There was a story in those stories about someone dying from just one look at a beautiful woman, but I haven't heard of anyone dying from just one look at her. What kind of evil martial arts is this?
Or some kind of occult magic? He had some doubts.
"What I said is true!" Jin Zixuan said anxiously: "I can't see any injuries. It looks like he was asleep, but he has no breath and is cold."
As he spoke, his tone had already dropped. It was obvious that even he was sad about the death of his concubine. Moreover, he could not hide his hatred in his words.
"Keep talking." Chu Yunqing said.
"I called Lai San and others at night and asked them to mobilize the brothers to look for the person." Jin Zixuan said: "At dawn, the person came again and said that the person had disappeared in Kanglefang. Let him
I'll go find it quickly."
Chu Yunqing thought for a while, and it seemed that Hua Wuqi had indeed been discovered by someone, so he followed him all the way to Kanglefang.
Fortunately, Hua Wuqi handled it fairly well. Although the other party arrived on the street, he didn't know which house it was.
But Chu Yunqing suddenly thought of the footprints on the wall in the alley, that is, he discovered that Hua Wuqi was the trace that he climbed over the wall, and there was still a little blood there.
Because of the sudden appearance of Lai San and others, I forgot to cover it up.
Chu Yunqing felt a little nervous in his heart. Although the man in the dark activated Jin Zixuan to find someone, he obviously didn't stop. Being able to track Kang Le Fang was the best example.
So, will the other party also discover this clue and then suspect his own house and Ai Xiaozhou?
The more Chu Yunqing thought about it, the more he thought it was possible, and he quickly asked: "Is that person a boy or a girl, what does he look like, and what are his characteristics?"
Jin Zixuan didn't understand why he was suddenly so nervous, but he still said: "Male, medium build, about the same height as me. As for what he looks like, I really don't know. He is wearing a gray robe, and his face is blocked by a bamboo hat. He can't see at all."
Not clear."
"Grey robe?" Somehow, after hearing this, Chu Yunqing subconsciously thought of the gray robe man that Zhou Wangchao had mentioned at that time, that is, the man who appeared in front of him when he was at the Qingjing Sect and made a solicitation claiming to be from
A man of the "jianghu".
Did he think too much? Chu Yunqing stood up slowly, his expression serious.
"By the way, Yuanhuan, there are two circular knives attached to his arms." Jin Zixuan felt that this should be valuable news.
Chu Yunqing nodded and glanced at him, "I will remind your men to come over and you will not die."
Jin Zixuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then said quickly: "Hero, this matter really has nothing to do with me, I was forced to do it."
"I will come to you again. You'd better know what's going on and don't seek death." Chu Yunqing turned and left.
"Don't worry, good man, Jin knows how to behave, he will keep his mouth shut, and he will never talk nonsense!" Of course Jin Zixuan knew the meaning of the other person's words, and said quickly.
Chu Yunqing can't wait to go home and see.
On the one hand, I was worried that Ai Xiaozhou would be in danger if he returned early. On the other hand, I felt a little unhappy at the thought of someone coming uninvited or even rummaging around.
Moreover, there is an old man in the family. If this old boy is killed, it will not be beautiful if the blood is stained all over the floor.
…
At this time, Ai Xiaozhou's home.
Zhou Wangchao lay on the window slit of the woodshed, carefully watching the figures walking in the yard, his small eyes full of fear.
Gray robe, low-pitched, holding a sword. Damn it, isn't this the man who walked up to him as if there was no one there when he was still at the Qingjing Sect decades ago?
No, it should be said that he is dressed in the same style. This man is a bit stronger and wears a hat. He is not as mysterious as the previous man.
But for no reason, Zhou Wangchao was sure that the person in the courtyard was the same as the person from back then. He couldn't explain why, but he was so sure.
At this time, he was even more powerless than before.
Zhou Wangchao squeezed a triangular talisman in his hand tightly, sweat dripping from his temples.
Because behind him, in the dark woodshed, under the cover of the pile of firewood, Hua Wuqi was lying on a straw mat!
At this time, while Hua Wuqi was transforming the medicinal properties in his body and circulating his true energy to recover from his injuries, he was equally careful to restrain his own energy, lest he leak any information.
The veteran's back was wet with cold sweat, and he was looking out the window without blinking.
From beginning to end, Hua Wuqi never left the yard. After Chu Yunqing went out in the morning, Zhou Wangchao moved Hua Wuqi to the woodshed.
The reason why Chu Yunqing's perception did not discover it was precisely because of the old tricks.
They did this not because they couldn't trust Chu Yunqing, but because they were members of the sect, and as sects, they often had a sense of pride.
Although Chu Yunqing is a Jianghu man and comes from a gang, he has nothing to do with the sect's grudges, and Hua Wuqi doesn't want to involve him.
The old Taoist took on this job, and Zhou Wangchao had no hesitation. He who always cherished his life did not hesitate at all this time, just because of the heavy responsibility that the Shenwu Sect was shouldering today.
The people in the courtyard walked towards the main hall and came out after a few moments, then went to the side room and came out also very quickly.
He had no intention of going to the kitchen or woodshed to see. After returning to the courtyard, he put his feet down and used Qinggong to leave.
Zhou Wangchao waited quietly for a moment, then breathed a long sigh of relief.
