Nightmare Apostle

Kuang Hongyi's tense expression also relaxed slightly, and he licked his dry lips, "Brother Chu, what do you think of what happened tonight?"

Yang Xiao directly told us about what he saw Bo Xichuan and the Third Young Master. After listening, Kuang Hongyi fell into thought, "The Feng family didn't tell us the truth. They bribed the Bai Banzhu of the Bai family's gatehouse and announced to the public that Xime accidentally fell into the water and died. In fact, on the seventh day, Xime was betrothed to Old Master Feng. The method was just as you saw. No wonder Xime's resentment was hard to eliminate and turned into a fierce ghost to demand the life of the Feng family."

"It should be like this." Yang Xiao recalled the scene at that time and still couldn't help but feel scared.

"By the way, brother Chu, do you see the two red lanterns hanging outside the door look familiar?" Kuang Hongyi turned his head and asked suddenly.

Seeing that Yang Xiao didn't react, Kuang Hongyi reminded him: "You received the script box, and there are three cards in it, remember?"

Now Yang Xiao remembered, yes, there are three cards in the script box, the first one is the Feng family mansion located on the main street, and the second one is here, the backyard lake, and there are two big red lanterns hanging outside each door by the lake!

The picture is surprisingly consistent with what we see now!

"Are those cards hints for us?" Yang Xiao thought that those would be clue cards, but he didn't think of any use.

"Yes, I checked the information before coming here. The red lantern on the second card is of a special format. It is a special wedding cage in ancient times. Now it seems that this implies that Xi Mo was sent to the Bo Xi boat."

"What about the third card?" The third card is the most special, with a turbid darkness on it. Yang Xiao remembers it very clearly, after all, he was confused at the time.

At this moment, Kuang Hongyi kept it a secret, laughed twice and said: "I didn't figure out what it meant at first, but it was you, brother Chu, who reminded me just now."

Yang Xiao looked at him puzzled.

"You said you saw the Boxi ship sink to the bottom of the lake." Kuang Hongyi pressed his palm down and made a sinking gesture.

It was as if a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and Yang Xiao immediately understood, "The blurry darkness is the lake water! It is the dark and turbid lake water at night!"

"That's right! This third card is reminding us that the ship and Ximo were sunk to the bottom of the lake together, and this is the top priority of this mission!" After saying this, Kuang Hongyi couldn't help but worry again, "Looking at this situation, I'm afraid we will have to go into the water again soon to find the ship and Ximo's body. This time we may have to dive into the lake."

Hearing this, Yang Xiao was directly scared. Although he was a good swimmer and was considered a white shark in the swimming pool, the lake water was cold and creepy, and there was no telling how many sunken ships and bodies were below.

When Yang Xiao thought about running into Sun Amao and others in the lake with extremely low visibility, he felt unwell.

Noticing Yang Xiao's pale face, Kuang Hongyi changed the subject, "By the way, brother Chu, when I came to the town to look for clues earlier, I accidentally heard an ancient saying that has been circulated for many years according to the locals."

Kuang Hongyi was silent for a moment, and recalled word by word: "The first daughter does not marry outside, the second son is kept by the knees, the fortune is shallow, and the gate of the deep house is not crossed."

"I have found several elderly locals to verify it, and they all said that they have heard this ancient saying, and Fengmen is a small place in a poor and remote village, and there is only one family recognized by the locals as a wealthy family." Kuang Hongyi pointed to the ground, "It is the Feng family compound on the site of the flour mill."

This makes things much clearer. The first two sentences are temporarily clueless, and the latter one, the fortune is shallow, and the gate of the deep house is not crossed, which implies Xi Mo's experience.

It was late at night, and there were only so many clues now. There would be no result if we continued to talk. Kuang Hongyi was injured, so Yang Xiao let him rest first and kept watch himself.

"How can I let you, brother Chu, suffer alone?" Kuang Hongyi walked to the table, picked up the candlestick with his backhand, and was about to go to tie Su Tingting.

Yang Xiao hurriedly stopped him, "No need to do this, it will delay things if she is with me, I... I am fine alone."

Seeing that Yang Xiao said so, Kuang Hongyi reluctantly put down the candlestick, turned his head and said: "Brother Chu, you are just too kind-hearted, then, wake me up in a few hours, I will take your shift."

After Kuang Hongyi fell asleep, Yang Xiao rechecked the doors and windows, looked out through the gap, and the people gathered at the lake in the distance had dispersed. It seems that Liu Guanjia and others also know that the paper-tie maker is in trouble, and the third young master is afraid that he is in danger.

Sitting at the table, he poured himself a cup of tea. Fortunately, the tea was newly changed and still warm.

Yang Xiao clenched the teacup, feeling the heat radiating from the palm of his hand, and his chaotic mood calmed down little by little.

You can't believe everything Kuang Hongyi said. Yang Xiao believed that Xu Su didn't take the initiative to give him the grave soil, but it's too much to say that Xu Su killed him.

Imagine the scene at that time. Xu Su was already invincible with the grave soil. He just needed to wait for Sun Amao to deal with Kuang Hongyi. Why bother to raise his knife and attack him.

Moreover, the two of them were obviously not in the same level when they started fighting. Xu Su was a weak woman, and Kuang Hongyi was a big and strong man. Even if he attacked Xu Su, he would not be his opponent. Moreover, judging from the relationship between the two, Kuang Hongyi was always on guard against Xu Su, and the possibility of a successful sneak attack was almost zero.

Yang Xiao judged that the real scene should be like this. After discovering that Xu Su was holding the grave soil and not giving it to him, Kuang Hongyi wanted to kill her. He severely injured Xu Su with a short knife, left her on the boat to die, and jumped on Sun Amao's boat and slipped away.

Of course, it is also possible that he directly threw the severely injured Xu Su into the water.

This can be seen from the location of Kuang Hongyi's injury. Xu Su should have been waving his knife to resist after falling to the ground, and scratched Kuang Hongyi's calf in the random slashing and stabbing.

If it was a sneak attack as Kuang Hongyi said, the injury should not be in this location. If you think about it from another perspective, if you were to sneak attack, you would definitely go straight to the vitals with the first knife, at least you would have to destroy his eyes.

Facing a martial artist like Kuang Hongyi, if you fail to hit him with one blow, you won't have a second chance to attack.

Xu Su and he didn't know each other, Yang Xiao had no intention of seeking justice for her, and Kuang Hongyi's behavior could not be said to be wrong. At the critical moment of life and death, surviving is the kingly way. Even if it was him, under the same conditions, if Xu Su didn't hand over the grave soil, then this day next year would be her death anniversary.

Well... Of course, it could also be his own, if Xu Su was also a martial artist who was hiding his true strength.

"Huh——" Yang Xiao made up his mind to actively exercise after returning. It would be best if he could sign up for a Sanda fighting class or something. He didn't need to consider the rules. He would learn whatever was practical. Whether it was a sneak attack or a three-way attack, he would focus on defeating the enemy with one move. The more insidious, the better.

I don't have time to write the script. If it doesn't work, I will ask for leave in the nightmare group and tell the drama friends that the author is busy with PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds recently. If you lose, you will be gone. I think everyone will understand.
