Chapter 12 Pause

"Boom!" A huge sound came from the room without any cover, as if wishing to let the entire Liu family know.Luo Xingyun's face was expressionless, and there was a rare moment when he wanted to yell and scold the idiot who designed this mechanism and beat him up.

The Liu family basically went crazy and gathered in front of the room of the Liu family who heard an inexplicable loud noise in the blink of an eye.The house, which had been idle for more than a year, was suddenly illuminated by several fires, and the dampness and coldness in the air were also expelled.

"Who is it?!" A person hurried in from the outside, and the people around the house immediately moved out of the way in an orderly manner.

"Let me tell the Patriarch, there was a loud noise in this room just now, someone must be here, but it's a pity that they have already escaped." One person knelt down and lowered his head.

Liu Yifan's eyes widened angrily, seeing the windows in the house wide open and gusts of cool wind pouring in from time to time, he couldn't help but waved his sleeves and shouted angrily: "A bunch of trash! I can't even catch a single person! Find me in a wider area! The assassin must be captured!" Get it out!"

"Yes!"

But at this moment, the two who were supposed to 'escape' in the cognition of Liu Yifan and his group of men were sitting in the basement of the Liu couple's house, listening to the high-level discussions of the group of people on the ground.As for how the two of them entered through the wall, it was obvious from the hole above their heads.

It was hard for anyone to imagine that the loud noise just now came from under the bed. The usual mechanism directly opened the stone door under the bed, and the wooden board under the bed opened accordingly.When every second counted, Luo Xingyun lifted his foot and kicked the closed window to create a simple illusion, and then rolled under the bed with Li Wanshu.

Li Wanshu held the candle and looked around, turned his head and saw Luo Xingyun's slightly frowned brows, and then teased unkindly: "Brother Yun is worried that the jade pendant will be found by them? Don't worry, this is not a gentleman on Liang... It can't be done."

Luo Xingyun immediately rolled his eyes at him when he heard the words, and didn't bother to answer half a word.

Li Wanshu laughed heartlessly, and took the lead to walk to the place where there was a road ahead, and Luo Xingyun raised his heels to follow.

To be honest, Luo Xingyun, who can be hunted down by this group of people like this, felt suspicious at first, but now that he found such an underground secret room here, he couldn't help but feel even more suspicious, and at the same time, he was even more sure of Chen Liao's sister. The Liu family must have hidden some secrets and has extraordinary skills.

The tunnel is not long, and you can see the end after a few steps.The excavation at the end was relatively casual, and a coffin was placed upright in the center, on which lay a corpse that had already been ossified and in a distorted posture, and half of its body had already fallen into the coffin.

Li Wanshu and Luo Xingyun looked at this rather strange scene in amazement and were speechless for a while.

"This man...how does it seem like he is about to enter the coffin, but the King of Hades didn't give him enough time to climb into the coffin?" Li Wanshu didn't seem to shy away from these things that were compatible with the nether world, so his words were naturally unscrupulous.

Although Li's mouth is open, but what he said is true, at least Luo Xingyun thinks so in his heart.

Li Wanshu approached the corpse with a candle in his hand, and suddenly he was surprised: "Huh? He seems to be holding something in his arms?"

What the skeleton was holding was clearly a long jade box, its pure jade color must be expensive, and there was an exquisite double lock in the middle, which was extraordinarily unique.Luo Xingyun tentatively pulled the jade box, and found that it was because the man grasped the jade box too tightly before he died, and couldn't pull it out all at once.

He was wondering if there was any way to take out the jade box more securely, when he saw the nerd almost without blinking his eyes, stretched out his bone fan, and without hesitation chopped off the palm holding the jade box intact. down.

"..." Luo Xingyun couldn't recover from the great shock, even if he killed more living people, he wouldn't have any special thoughts, but the feeling this guy gave him was really creepy.No one can tell if there is such a way of yin and yang, ghosts and gods, but anyone who has blood on their hands wants to be happy while they are still alive, and when they are dying, they are afraid that the king of Hades will not spare them, so they will treat the dead more or less Some respect.

Although Li Wanshu usually looks very gentle and scheming, Luo Xingyun feels that this person is really moody and does things according to his heart, you will never guess what this guy is thinking, just because of that look A smiling face that completely restrains his true thoughts.

I saw Li Wanshu, who had chopped off his palms just a moment ago, bowed respectfully to the corpse, and said half-truthfully, "Brother, for another innocent life, I am two I took the liberty to borrow the jade box in your hand, please forgive me if I offend you, and I will definitely bury your brother well in the future."

Luo Xingyun hesitated to speak, and finally picked up the jade box with two palms in one hand, broke the iron lock with almost no effort, and opened it safely.

There are no belongings in the box, only a scroll is placed in the center.As soon as Li Wanshu lifted the scroll, the scroll was spread out from top to bottom, and a portrait of a woman appeared impressively.

The woman in the painting sat in the room with a smile on her face, but it was very different from the portraits they had seen before.Not only is there a slight difference in appearance, but the woman in this portrait is playing the piano in the room.She touched the strings with delicate fingers, and even people outside the painting were infected by this natural beauty.

"This...is the real Liu family?" Li Wanshu murmured.

Luo Xingyun narrowed his eyes and fixedly stared at the piano in the woman's hand in the painting, his expression constantly changing.

Is it... a twelve-string harp?

Without thinking too much, he already knew the reason why Mrs. Liu was hunted down.

"Brother Yun seems to have thought of something?" Li Wanshu raised the corners of his lips and said softly, his eyes were on Luo Xingyun's face for an unknown amount of time, his black eyes were full of interest.

Luo Xingyun pursed his lips, and there was a hint of darkness in his light-colored eyes, and he did not intend to hide some clues about this matter from Li Wanshu: "This Liu family should be a member of the Tianqin Sect. It is not a secret in the martial arts that the Qin School was destroyed overnight, but the real reason is really unknown. Later, it was rumored that the Tian Qin School was hired with a lot of money because it was guarding one of the three treasures in the world. Qi Yutang took action to kill him. But there are no absolutes, there will always be one or two fish that slip through the net." After speaking, he looked at the woman in the painting.

"So this... the fish that slipped through the net was hiding everywhere, but happened to meet Mr. Liu. Maybe the two really liked each other. Mr. Liu wanted to help Mrs. Liu hide everything, so he drew two pictures and wanted to use a fake one to hide everything. That painting came to confuse people's eyes, but they didn't want to be discovered... Hu Si was silenced because he took that fake painting." Li Wanshu said very smoothly, "But this Liu family should not be a small fish Well, otherwise no one would have stood here for so long."

Luo Xingyun approached the painting and observed carefully: "If this is the case, then there should be some clues to this painting that has been carefully preserved..."

Suddenly, Li Wanshu, who had a fan on his face and a relaxed face, picked up the candle on the ground, and approached the painting amid Luo Xingyun's eyelids twitching.Seeing that the idiot seemed to be about to ignite the only clue, Luo Xingyun stretched out his hand to stop it, but the idiot shot faster and directly clamped his wrist: "Brother Yun, don't worry, I just want to bake Let’s see if there are any important clues coming out of this painting, so we won’t burn it.”

Luo Xingyun glanced at Li Wanshu, then glanced at the hand that was grabbed by him, and suddenly broke his arms and squinted at him: "I am very worried about Brother Li, your swift and resolute style of action." Who knows you will not Will suddenly people come and burn it up and have a look?

Li Wanshu smiled and said nothing, and turned to bake the painting carefully with fire, but after baking for a long time, there was no reaction at all, there were still no words where there were no words, and there were no missing places where there were pens and inks.

Luo Xingyun leaned over and touched the slightly warm picture, his eyes moved with the movement of his fingertips, and soon he found something different: "Look, is there something in the artist's engraved seal? How many words are there?"

"Huh?" Li Wanshu went to study the seal after hearing the words, and he really saw a few vague small characters: "...Wan...Will not be destroyed by fire?"

"What do you mean?"

"Maybe it describes a certain characteristic of the treasure, and of course it may be some kind of code word." Li Wanshu said.

Luo Xingyun was silent, he really didn't know much about the three treasures, the names were not a secret, they were nothing more than the Key of the Ancient Gate, the Seal of the Emperor Yan and the Order of Suppressing Evil.Some people say that the order of Jianghu in the hands of the current martial arts leader is the order of suppressing evil, but because it is quite old and many clues have been deliberately concealed, the truth is hard to find.People in the world say that the treasures of the previous dynasty can be retrieved from the three major treasures. I don't know if it is true or not, but someone must search for clues from it, dreaming that one day they will become rich.

"I got the things too, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time." Luo Xingyun took the painting and rolled it up, "Go and meet Mr. Chen first, and see if we can get some clues."

And the Chen Liao they were talking about was currently lighting the candles in the house and waiting for the news of Luo Xingyun and the two of them, and he felt a little anxious when he saw no one left or right.Suddenly a shadow swayed outside the window, Chen Liao turned his head to look, only to see the shadow of a bird reflected on the window.The little guy was shaking his head and pecking bit by bit the grains he put on the window sill this morning.

Chen Liao hurriedly opened the window to pick up the pigeon, and took the small piece of paper tied to its foot with ease, unfolding it to look at it.

The Minister of Dali Temple called urgently and returned quickly.

"Could it be because of the recent assassin in the capital?" Chen Liao frowned. If Dali Temple Minister asked him, he would not be able to shirk, but how could he leave so easily when his sister was approaching the truth?

Suddenly someone's footsteps sounded in the courtyard, followed by a gentle voice: "Mr. Chen?"

Chen Liao quickly put the note into his sleeve, straightened his clothes before opening the door and welcoming him in: "Did you two find that painting?"

"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life." Li Wanshu cupped his hands and said with a slight smile, Luo Xingyun shook his hands and unfolded the scroll.

Chen Liao hurriedly went to take a closer look, his peach blossom eyes were full of excitement that could not be concealed: "This... this is indeed the next sister! Mr. Luo, where did you find it?"

Then the three of them sat down and explained the ins and outs of the matter, and Li Wanshu also told Chen Liao their guesses.Chen Liao obviously didn't know what his sister was doing after he separated from the Liu family a few years ago. He was very shocked to hear that the Liu family was a member of the Tianqin faction. Undoubtedly standing on the cusp of the storm.

Li Wanshu was concerned about Chen Liao's future plans: "I'm afraid we will have to hurry. Someone will know that such a big thing happened here, and Mr. Chen still plans to stay here as the son of the village chief." ?"

"I have important things to do, so I'll stay for a while, not to mention I haven't buried my brother-in-law properly yet." Chen Liao smiled wryly.

"Mr. Chen... doesn't have very high martial arts. Isn't it dangerous to face those people here alone?" Luo Xingyun looked at Chen Liao and hesitated.

"Mr. Luo." Chen Liao smiled with crooked brows and eyes: "Thank you for your concern, my master. Although I am not good at martial arts, I still have ways to protect myself. However, Mr. Luo's disguise technique needs to be improved. I am only quite accomplished in disguise. , but when I saw Mr. Luo at a glance, I knew that you were disguised."

Luo Xingyun's expression froze: Has his disguise technique rotted to this extent?Although those cheeks are only used to block the face, that's right.

Li Wanshu said triumphantly from the side: "A person's appearance is a gift from God, so no matter how ugly a person's facial features are, they are also rhythmically ugly. As for your disguise...it is too ugly."

"..." The technique of disguise is really extensive and profound.

"I don't know which direction you two are going to go? Although Mr. Li said that he came here to spend the night, you two don't seem to be in a hurry." Chen Liao said.

"We are planning to go to the capital, and the distance is not rushed, but we are just walking and playing all the way." Li Wanshu glanced at Luo Xingyun, and felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, although the other party seemed reluctant to accept it. Go all the way and play all the way' this saying.

When Chen Liao heard this, his pair of watery peach blossom eyes showed a little surprise, and then he said with a serious expression: "Are you actually going to the capital? You have to be very careful when you go to the capital these days."

"Oh? Has anything happened in the capital recently?" Li Wanshu asked.

"I heard that there are always people in Beijing who have their necks wiped for no reason. The skill is unmatched by ordinary people." Chen Liao frowned and thought about something, and then said slowly, "According to some people who were lucky enough to see this person and still alive In other words, this murderer looks like a very mysterious person in Jianghu rumors."

Li Wanshu and Luo Xingyun waited for his next words.

"The Qi Yutang assassin who disappeared suddenly two years ago, Xianyun."

Luo Xingyun was stunned for a moment, while Li Wanshu blinked his eyes, showing an indescribable expression.

When the sky was slightly bright, two steeds stepped forward one after the other, and the two above were Luo Xingyun and Li Wanshu who said they were going on their way.The two men killed someone and stole the painting last night, said goodbye to Chen Liao and set off. They also deliberately chose a rather remote path, but they were never hunted down.

The two are not only superior in martial arts, but also inexplicably energetic.The overnight journey only added a bit of fatigue to them, but it didn't mean that they didn't need to rest, not to mention that going without a bath for several days was really unbearable.

"There seems to be a town ahead, how about we go to the town and find an inn to rest in a while?" Li Wanshu suggested, it's not because he can't hold on, but it's just that their horses can't bear it if they don't eat or drink. .

Luo Xingyun had no objection, but he took a quick step on his horse and walked side by side with Li Wanshu, asking seemingly casually: "Was it you who woke me up the night before yesterday?"

Li Wanshu froze for a moment, then chuckled, "You found out?"

"Although I am used to light sleep, I won't wake up if there is no disturbance. Something must have touched me, but..." Luo Xingyun recalled the situation that night, "I didn't notice anyone running away. Walking traces."

"Ali sprinkled an excessive amount of Mixiang in the room that night. You and I have strong internal strength and martial arts are not weak, so we are naturally resistant to Mixiang. However, the effect that should be there is still there, but I made preparations in advance, so he After getting up, I only touched your sleeping point." Li Wanshu said casually.

"Then you unlocked my sleeping hole?" Luo Xingyun raised his eyebrows; "That is to say, you woke me up on purpose to let me discover something?"

Li Wanshu smiled very meaningfully; "If you want to think like this, I can't help it, but I never hurt your heart. The world is in chaos here, I just woke you up to let you pay attention in case."

Luo Xingyun sneered and rolled his eyes at the other party, secretly slandering him in his heart: Could it be that he covered his conscience and said such a thing.

Immediately, he narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that this person is really full of tricks, when he first met, he was coughing like a person whose days are numbered, and when the object of suspicion died, he would not even bother to get sick in front of him Installed.He never likes to get too close to people who are too deep in the city. After all, he is just a warrior, and his brain is naturally not as bright as these people.

Li Wanshu soon sensed Luo Xingyun's hidden vigilance in his scrutiny, but it's a pity that he thought he was very thick-skinned, so he just let others scrutinize him calmly, and even looked back with a smile on his face.

Luo Xingyun's face darkened, his eyes wandered away, and he felt more and more that this fake scholar was a trouble, a big trouble.
