However, the whip didn't reach the woman, and Xiao Cheng reached out to stop it halfway.

The city owner didn't know, so, "Mrs. Mo?"

Xiao Cheng said, "If you hold on and beat her to death with a whip, the poison on your body will be useless!"

The city lord asked in horror: "Then... what should we do then?"

Xiao Cheng grabbed the whip in his hand and threw it aside, "You go out first, leave this place to me!"

"But..." the city lord hesitated, "This woman is very dangerous, I'm afraid of her..."

In case something happened to the wife of the Mo family, even if he had a few lives, it would not be enough to pay for it!

Xiao Cheng said with a cold face: "There is so much nonsense! Get out! Otherwise, I don't care about this matter!"

"Okay, I'll go out, Mrs. Mo... Be careful!"

The city lord walked out of the cell carefully, but he didn't dare to go far, so he could only wander outside the cell.

Xiao Cheng stared at the woman, and that woman also stared at him.

Xiao Cheng asked: "You are from the Wu tribe, right?"

The woman didn't answer his question directly, but asked vigilantly, "Who are you!?"

Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to answer. You Wu Clan are exhausted this time. Even if you poison everyone in the City Lord's Mansion to death, it won't help! Why do you have to resist pointlessly?"

The woman rested her wet hair and stared at Xiao Cheng viciously.

The threatening Xiao Cheng didn't feel guilty at all, "It's useless for you to look at me! What I said is the truth! The main stronghold of your Rakshasa Sect has been destroyed, and most of your followers have died, and some have been killed. What can you do alone!"

"Even if I can't do anything, I won't make it easier for you!" The woman looked excited, pulling the chain on her body and making a rattling sound. Xiao Cheng felt that if she wasn't locked, this woman might pounce on her!

Xiao Cheng rubbed his nose, "Why are you so excited? No matter how excited you are, you can't change the current reality, can you? Hand over the antidote honestly, and we will live in peace after that. I promise to let you go!"

"Hmph! Who do you think you are?!"

Xiao Cheng's face turned cold, "Don't toast and refuse to eat fine wine! After all, you are just a pawn being used by others. Why should you lose your life because you don't want to do it? It's just stupid!"

The woman sneered, "I have my reasons, you won't understand! Anyway, in my eyes, you all deserve to die!"

"Everyone has their own reasons for existence. Whoever you think you are can easily deprive others of their lives!"

The woman's mouth was tight, and then she said angrily: "Why are you talking so much nonsense, kill if you want!"

"Bone! Unfortunately, I really can't figure out why you, a weak woman, poisoned the people of the city lord's mansion! Let me think about it... During this period, the power of the Wu clan collapsed, and they no longer have the ability to resist the forces of various sects. Why do you At this critical juncture, making such a mentally retarded move as poisoning...it seems...to attract attention..."

The woman stopped talking.

Seeing the woman's tightly closed mouth, Xiao Cheng smiled secretly. It seemed that he had guessed right.

"You are buying time for your fellow clan members... right? Ah, by the way, speaking of which, I have been a guest at the main altar of your Wu clan before, but it seems that I have never met you girl..." Xiao Cheng suddenly walked up to the woman, stretched out his hand and pushed her head away

The woman seemed startled by his action, "What are you doing!?"

"You..." Xiao Cheng was a little surprised when he saw that slightly familiar face, and couldn't help taking a step back, his expression quickly returned to normal, "You...what's your name?!"

"Hehe... I don't believe that man didn't tell you!" Although she still doesn't know the identity of the man in front of her, the woman instinctively thinks that this man is not easy to mess with!

"Is Qiu Niang your real name? I want to know your real name!"

The woman turned her face away stubbornly.

Xiao Cheng didn't get an answer, so he continued to ask, "Do you... have a younger brother?"

The woman turned her head and stared at Xiao Cheng in shock, "You... how do you know?"

Xiao Cheng lowered his face, slowly took out something from his body, and held it in his hand, "Do you recognize this thing?"

The woman screamed loudly, "How could you have this thing! Where is he...others?!"

What Xiao Cheng held in his hand was the half of the jade buckle that Hua Mo had given him.

Xiao Cheng saw the woman's face just now, and it was surprisingly familiar. It was the female version of Hua Mo when she grew up. Xiao Cheng remembered that the little ghost said that he had a twin sister who was abandoned at birth. Now it seems that, It does not seem to be the case.

The woman was still screaming, "What did you do to him! Tell me!"

Xiao Cheng put the things in his arms slowly.

"This is a person who gave it to me before he died. He asked me to help him find his relatives..."

The woman stopped screaming, with a dull expression on her face, "What did you say? You said him...how is this possible, did you kill him?

? "

Xiao Cheng frowned, "Before he died, he told me that he had a twin sister who was abandoned at birth. If he was still alive, he would probably have been adopted by an ordinary family. However, looking at it now, it is not the case! You have always followed There is a connection with the Wu clan, or you were not abandoned at the beginning! Is he lying or you are lying!"

The woman was silent again.

Xiao Cheng said: "If you don't want to talk about it today, I won't force you! After all, I promised him to find relatives for him and settle him down. You... think about it carefully!"

"Wait a minute!" Seeing that Xiao Cheng turned to leave, the woman hurriedly stopped him.

Xiao Cheng turned around and asked, "Why, figured it out?"

"Can I ask, is he... is he really dead?"

Xiao Cheng nodded.

The woman looked a little sad and angry, "Then...how did he die?"

"Will you believe what I say?"

The woman gritted her teeth, "Say it!"

"The direct cause of death is being killed by a monster, and the indirect cause of death is being pitted by the priests of your witch clan!" Xiao Cheng told the woman his experience and process of getting along with Hua Mou in a simple and clear way. To put it bluntly, the woman's expression will fluctuate greatly. It seems that this woman should be the kid's own sister, not a fake. If it is a fake, she won't have such heavy emotions.And judging from the woman's reaction, she should know that Hua Mo exists, but Hua Mo doesn't know her whereabouts, which is a bit strange!

"Girl, I'm done talking, let me ask you now!" Xiao Cheng said, "The little ghost said that twins are an ominous sign in the Wu clan, so you were sent away as soon as you were born. Is this true? "

The woman slowly let go of her guard against Xiao Cheng, and no longer confronted her as before, "Yes."

"Then why..." Xiao Cheng really wanted to ask him, if she was abandoned since she was a child, why would she remember her identity and remember that she has a younger brother, could it be that this woman has memories since she was born?

The woman said, "After I abandoned myself, I was picked up by a farmer in a village outside Shuoli. When I was five years old, the farmer couldn't afford to support them because they had too many children, so they sold me to traffickers. Originally, I planned to sell me to a wealthy family as a maid, but after seeing that I was not bad, I came up with the idea of ​​selling me to a brothel, and then... that adult appeared and rescued me from the traffickers, he told My life experience, and... my family!"

"Let me guess, the person you mentioned... should be your Yinyue Priest!"

The woman nodded, "He took me to meet my brother, of course, secretly! I hid in the dark and watched the boy who looked the same as me, kneeling and praying among a group of children, who belonged to twins. The induction between the two made me feel that the purpose of my life is to protect him! So, I agreed to Yinyue Sacrifice and became his dark chess outside, helping the clansmen to deliver news, just to win a better life for my brother. status!"

The brothel is a place where fish and dragons are mixed up, and you can get any news. The woman has been lurking in the brothel for more than 20 years, and has been delivering news for the Wu clan for more than ten years. Poison.

Xiao Cheng shook his head, "Yuzhong! Until now, do you still think that you deserve the fate of a pawn? Even if you end up in the same fate as your brother..."

The woman looked flustered, "I won't believe you just based on your one-sided words!"

Xiao Cheng nodded, "I didn't tell you to believe me! You can ask yourself if your brother's death has anything to do with them!"

Xiao Cheng pulled out Liu Cang and cut off the chains on the woman, "I'll let you go!"

The woman obviously didn't believe that I, Xiao Cheng, would let her go.

Xiao Cheng threw half of the jade buckle to him, "This is also your brother's regret. He has always wanted to know why he has done so much for his clansmen, but he ended up like this..."

The woman took the jade buckle with a painful look on her face, "Thank you so much!"

Then the woman threw a bottle of medicine to Xiao Cheng, "This is the antidote!"

The city lord waited outside for a long time, but Xiao Cheng did not come out. Except for a roar from the prison cell at first, he fell into silence. The woman tied to the rack was gone!

The city lord was taken aback, "Mo... Mrs. Mo, where is that... woman?"

"gone!"

"Leaving?!" The city lord stared at Xiao Cheng in a panic, and asked cautiously, "That... Mrs. Mo, are you alright?"

Xiao Cheng sneered, "Do you think I seem to be in trouble?"

The city lord looked like the sky was falling, and managed to catch the woman, but unexpectedly let her run away, so his poison... "The antidote!" Xiao Cheng threw the medicine bottle to the city lord, "Pour it into the water , drink it up, drink it for the poisoned person, and you will be fine soon

After Xiao Cheng finished speaking, he turned and walked out of the cell.The reason why they were attacking the east and the west was just to divert the target. In this way, Yinyue and the leaders of the Wu clan are very likely to be in Jinling City!
