Will it be him?

Ye Chengyu pressed the sword in his hand tightly, and the person walking in front noticed his strangeness, turned his head, and met Ye Chengyu's eyes.

This person has a pair of very bright eyes, and now these bright eyes are full of doubts.

Ye Chengyu stared fixedly at the person in front of him, and next to his ear was that person's slightly puzzled voice: "What's wrong?"

──these are not the eyes that a cruel villain would have.

At the same time when he realized it, Ye Chengyu's hand holding the sword had already been released, he smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing."

Seeing that the person in front of him still looked confused, Ye Chengyu rode his horse to the side of the person, raised his hand, and patted him on the head twice, as if not long ago Just like what this guy did to him.

Seeing the face of the person in front of him turn sour, the anxiety in Ye Chengyu's heart caused by the guess just now dissipated, and at the same time he couldn't help but feel that his guess just now was absurd.

After all, following his mother's surname was just his guess. Since the other party would use a beard to cover up his face, how could he know that he would not change his name?

Ye Chengyu came out this time to help Yan Minshan investigate the murder that happened in the western suburbs of Yucheng a month ago.

Xunfeng Villa has been in business for many years, and has long since ceased to be involved in the affairs of Jianghu, and the place where the accident happened is far away in Yucheng. This incident should have nothing to do with Ye Chengyu, but Yan Minshan sent someone to inform Ye Chengyu , I hope he will come to investigate together, but the reason for this has to start from 30 years ago.

Thirty years ago, Ye Chengyu's father had not yet inherited the family business. When he traveled to Jufeng Mountain, he met the young master of the Yan family and the saint girl of the demon sect there.

The three met in Jufeng Mountain, and they did not know each other because of a misunderstanding. After several exchanges, the three felt that they had the same smell, so they became friends of eight worshippers, and later they called themselves the "Three Monsters of Jufeng".

Although the Ye family had faded out of the martial arts at that time, they still belonged to the righteous side, and the Yan family was one of the four most important families in the world.

The fathers of the two were both the heirs of the family's predestined patriarch, but they formed such a "shocking" combination with the demon saint, which naturally attracted criticism from many righteous people back then.

But at that time, they were young and frivolous, they didn't care about those criticisms at all, and they remained as they were until a few years later when the devil's saint disappeared unexpectedly, and the father of the two had to return to the family to take over the family business. The "Three Monsters Gathering the Wind" just disappeared.

Thirty years have passed, and now only the Yanye family maintains contacts, and they have never given up on finding the whereabouts of the demon saint.

Seven years ago, someone brought news of the saint, but he and Yan Minshan's father went to search for her, but never came back. In the end, except for the portrait of the saint's son sent back by his father, there was no one left. Any news of the saint.

And just a month ago, Yan Minshan found clues about the devil's saint in the massacred village!

Knowing this, Ye Chengyu set off in a hurry with little preparation. Unexpectedly, before he arrived in Yucheng, he met the Son of the Holy Maiden on the way. Although he didn't understand why the other party concealed his identity, at least he was not as clueless as in the past.

The two walked for a while, and when they arrived at Xiang Wan, a village named Qingmu Village finally appeared in front of them.

Wen Rongchuan wanted to go straight, but then he thought of Ye Chengyu behind him. He thought that this spoiled young master might not be able to withstand the "torture" of sleeping in the wild, so he finally chose to stay in the village overnight.

Yucheng is a big and prosperous city, and there are often people and merchants around. Now they are located in the suburbs of Yucheng, so although Qingmu Village is a village, it can be regarded as having everything that one expects.

As soon as Wen Rongchuan and Ye Chengyu entered the village, many eyes immediately cast their gazes on them.

Ye Chengyu's appearance is already very good. After yesterday's accident, his clothes still look so clean and tidy, coupled with the natural demeanor in his gestures, it is obvious that he looks like a rich man, but In contrast to Wen Rongchuan who was walking aside, he was full of beards and sloppy clothes, and he looked as if he hadn't been cleaned for many days. The scene of two people like this walking together was undoubtedly very eye-catching.

However, Wen Rongchuan had a calm demeanor when facing the gazes of others.

The two soon came to an inn, and Wen Rongchuan calmly asked Ye Chengyu beside him: "Do you have any silver taels?"

Ye Chengyu responded, and took him into the inn to ask for two rooms, then ordered a few dishes, found a seat by the window and sat down.

After the two sat down, Ye Chengyu kept looking at the person sitting opposite him.

He raised his finger and tapped lightly on the table twice. After a while, Ye Chengyu finally decided to say what he had been holding back for a day: "Can you change your clothes and shave your beard for me? Take care of yourself a little bit?"

Hearing this, Wen Rongchuan imitated Ye Chengyu's movements and tapped his fingers on the table, and said comfortably: "It's not necessary, it's too troublesome."

Ye Chengyu was silent, and seriously thought about whether he would be able to detain the person opposite if he used his hands, but then thought that even if he succeeded in detaining this person, he might have to take care of him himself, so Ye Chengyu thought After thinking about it, I can only give up in the end.

The dishes were served quickly, and the two of them ate quietly.

There were two businessmen sitting at a table next to them. When they were seated, they were talking about business. At this moment, one of them suddenly asked, "Have you heard about the incident in Xinyang Village in the western suburbs?"

Ye Chengyu paused, subconsciously raised his eyes to look at the person opposite, seeing the person with his head buried in the food, he was relieved immediately.

It seemed that he was overthinking it.

Just as Ye Chengyu was thinking, the businessman who was asked had already answered: "You mean the village that was massacred a month ago? Of course there is such a big thing!"

The man at the beginning said: "I don't know if that villain is still nearby, such a big village, if it is gone, it will be gone. If he keeps eyeing this place again, wouldn't we be in danger too?"

"If this is the case, then we can't hide even if we want to. You said such a thing, why didn't the person who found it report to the government first? Look how long it has been, and the head of the Yan family has not caught anyone. He is also afraid of that villain, right?"

"What's the use of reporting this kind of matter to the officials? Jianghu people still have to deal with it. Besides, this villain can be said to be elusive. It is said that no one has ever seen his appearance. It is difficult to catch him even if he wants to!"

"That's not necessarily the case, this murderer is so arrogant! In recent years, it can be said that he has killed all over the country, and he has left his name and provocative words in those places. I am afraid that others will not know that he did it. I see him Sooner or later it must be planted!"

"How late is this sooner or later? Let me tell you, judging by the viciousness of this villain, even the demon cultists would avoid him if they saw him."

Ye Chengyu was listening to each sentence, when the two businessmen said this, the person sitting in front of him suddenly let out a soft "heh".

Ye Chengyu was about to look up, but the person in front of him suddenly stood up, his eyes fixed on a corner beside him, Ye Chengyu followed his gaze, and saw a man in black with a face on his face. Smiling, also looking in their direction.

When they came in, the seat where the man was sitting was blocked by beams and pillars, so Ye Chengyu didn't notice that man, even now, if he didn't see him, he didn't notice the existence of this man.

At this time, the other party had also noticed Ye Chengyu's gaze, and raised his cup to salute him.

There was a knife on his desk. He also looked like a martial artist. He was about thirty years old. He was quite handsome, but there was an unconcealable viciousness in his smile.

Ye Chengyu frowned slightly, but still nodded towards the other party as a response, but before he nodded his head, his eyes were blocked by someone.

Wen Rongchuan stood beside Ye Chengyu, separated his body between the two, and said coldly: "Have you finished eating? Don't go to bed after eating."

As he said that, he had already pulled Ye Chengyu's arm and walked towards the stairs. Ye Chengyu thought inappropriately, did he finally remember that he is a "kidnapper" now?

The two walked to the stairs, and the seat where the man was was blocked by a beam again, Wen Rongchuan let go of Ye Chengyu.

Seeing Wen Rongchuan's appearance as if he was facing a formidable enemy, Ye Chengyu couldn't help being a little curious about the identity of that person.

Ye Chengyu asked: "Who?"

Wen Rongchuan said coldly: "It's not human."

While speaking, he had already walked up the stairs.

Is it not a person or a ghost?Ye Chengyu wanted to reply, but then his heart moved, so he didn't ask any more questions, and silently followed Wen Rongchuan upstairs, and returned to their respective rooms.

In the hall, the man in black was still sitting in his original seat drinking wine, and there were several empty wine jars scattered around him, apparently before Ye Chengyu and the two entered, he had already sat here and drank wine. A lot of wine.

Hearing the movement from upstairs, knowing that the two had returned to the room, the man in black put down his wine glass, and suddenly sighed heavily.

"Did you see those two guys over there? They even said that you are afraid of Wen Rongchuan, and you can only hide when you see him. If you are underestimated like this, you say, can you swallow this breath?"

There was nothing around him, no one responded, and there was no sound.

After several glasses of wine, the man in black whispered again: "What? You really dare not touch Wen Rongchuan? Because if you touch him, you will give those old men a reason to make trouble?"

There was no one around him, but he kept muttering to himself, as if he was completely drunk.

"Sounds like it's really troublesome... What do you think this ghost king is doing? Sitting in such a high position, he is still so restrained in doing things, and he is afraid of a group of bad people?"

……

"So that's the case, and there's a reason for that... being a ghost king is so useless, this kind of thing can't be known..."

The man in black nodded seriously, then stood up staggeringly, as if he was about to pass out drunk at any moment.

After staggering for a while, the man in black managed to stand still, but tilted his head again, and said in distress, "But what about those two people? They have already discovered this secret. If it gets out, everyone will be shocked." It is said that the ghost king is also afraid of Wen Rongchuan, so where will the ghost king show his face when he comes out?"

While talking, the man in black stumbled out of the inn, still muttering: "In this case, let them keep this secret and shut up forever!"
