【Kuan Xin】Snake and Venom

Xue Ying didn't dare to follow too closely, she shuttled sensitively above the towering trees, keeping a certain distance from Gu Changkun on the ground.

Gu Li had reminded him that Gu Changkun was cautious and suspicious and not easy to deal with.

After about a stick of incense, Xue Ying followed Gu Changkun to the back mountain. However, Xue Ying discovered that his destination was not where the six of them went last time to store the corpses, but in the opposite direction, hidden deep in the In the woods of the back mountain—there, the six of them had never found it before.

Xue Ying stopped suddenly. He found that Gu Changkun had stopped in front of a very large courtyard. Xue Ying's eyes flickered slightly, and he found a big tree hidden in the night to hide, carefully watching Gu Changkun's every move. .

At this time, the back mountain was shady, the moonlight was bleak, all the trees were withered, lifeless, and there was a terrifying atmosphere everywhere.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blows.

Xue Ying frowned slightly. In the cold wind, he smelled an extremely unusual smell. Xue Ying shrugged his nose and sniffed it again, startled.

Although the smell was extremely faint, he could still recognize it, it was the smell of blood.

At this time, Gu Changkun had entered the courtyard and disappeared from Xue Ying's sight.

Xue Ying frowned tightly. In this way, he would have no way of knowing what Gu Changkun was going to do. After careful consideration, Xue Ying resolutely jumped down from the towering tree. He has learned a lot, and his movements are very light, and he can't hear the slightest sound.

Then, he came to the gate of the courtyard, and under the pale moonlight, he walked around it cautiously. The surrounding area was overgrown with weeds and was in a mess. He didn't find anything unusual, but he found a back door on the other side of the courtyard. .

Xue Ying's eyes were deep. Suddenly, a thought came to his mind. He turned around and returned to the big tree that was suitable for hiding just now.

It might be a stick of incense, or it might be an hour, Xue Ying finally waited until Gu Changkun left the courtyard, and with sharp eyes, he found that the burden that Gu Changkun was carrying when he came here was gone.

He was not in a hurry, he watched Gu Changkun walk away, and waited for a while to make sure that the other party would not suddenly return to the courtyard, then jumped off the tree again, and came to the closed gate of the courtyard, which was locked, he looked up. After looking at the height of the wall, he kicked his toes hard and landed firmly on the tiles of the wall.

Taking a few deep breaths of air-conditioning, Xue Ying felt that the faint smell of blood just now became stronger.

Then, he jumped into the courtyard, and found that the door of a room was unlocked. Xue Ying took a few deep breaths of cold air mixed with the smell of blood, and slowly pushed the door open.

In the next second, his body froze completely.

A beast with an extremely fierce and brutal face was facing him, baring its teeth, as if it was about to pounce.

Wei Yanei was worried all night in the inn room, frowning and wandering in every corner of the room, looking out of the window from time to time, looking for Xue Ying's figure, with an anxious expression on his face.

Finally, before sunrise, Xue Ying came back, but his complexion was not very good, he was a little pale.

Wei Yanei quickly helped him to sit down, made him a cup of hot tea, and asked nervously, "Xue Ying, what's wrong with you?"

Xue Ying frowned, remained silent for a moment, and told Wei Yanei everything she saw in the courtyard behind the mountain.

Three days later, Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly appeared in Wumu Village. When they came back, there was an unconscious person tied beside them, a teenager around them.

Gu Li ran to the inn with the news and told Wei Yanei and Xue Ying, who hurried to Gu Changkun's house after learning about it.

Seeing each other again, Wei Yanei almost threw himself on the two of them for comfort. He grabbed Yuan Zhongxin and looked left and right, and then pulled Wang Kuan forward and back to make sure that the two were not injured, so he let go. Tone——At that time, Gu Changkun was the only one in his family, and Yuan Zhongxin and the other three didn't know where the family members went.

Taking advantage of Gu Changkun's opportunity to enter the kitchen to make tea for the three of them, Wei Yanei excitedly wanted to tell Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan all the clues he had observed in the past few days, but was stopped by Xue Ying: "Partition walls have ears. Don't rush to talk, go back to the inn to discuss."

Both Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan looked good. Except for the change of clothes, they were no different from the usual two. They put the comatose boy in a corner of Gu Changkun's house. Yuan Zhongxin asked in a low voice: "Where's Gu Li?"

Xue Ying replied: "It should be ready."

Wei Yanei looked curiously at the sleepy young man on the ground. He poked the young man's pale face with his hand. His facial features were well-proportioned and handsome, and he was not bad looking. The beast, even forced Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan to jump off the cliff?

Wei Yanei seemed to be thinking of something to write, and he leaned over to Wang Kuan meanly and asked, "After you guys figured out what happened, did you beat him up?"

Wang Kuan lowered his eyes slightly, but he didn't hide anything: "I thought about it, but I couldn't beat him up because I had to do something first."

Yuan Zhongxin: "..."

Wei Yanei quit. He pointed to the people on the ground and said, "You just let this guy go so easily? If it weren't for it, you and Yuan Zhongxin wouldn't be forced to jump off the cliff, and we wouldn't have to worry about it for so long!"

Wang Kuan squinted his eyes, and his gaze towards the young man turned cold. The corner of his mouth curled slightly, and he snorted coldly: "I know, if there is a chance in the future, I will make up for this beating."

Yuan Zhongxin: "..."

He has never been so eager to beat Wei Yanei as he is now.

Yuan Zhongxin looked at Wang Kuan with a playful smile, and whispered vigilantly: "Our common enemy hasn't been eliminated yet, why are you expecting internal strife among your teammates?"

Wang Kuan looked at him with a half-smile, his eyes were unfathomable, and he didn't say a word.

For a while, Yuan Zhongxin didn't want to talk anymore, he turned his head and gave Wei Yanei a vicious look.

Wei Yanei was stared in a daze, he stared blankly at Xue Ying, and asked aggrievedly: "Did I say something wrong?"

Xue Ying was so stupid by him that he didn't want to talk.

After a while, Gu Changkun came out of the kitchen holding a wooden tray. He cheerfully invited the four of them to sit down and drink tea. Obviously, he had caught the culprit who had been manipulating wild beasts to wreak havoc for the past half month, and let Gu Changkun After a matter of concern, people are also more energetic.

Yuan Zhongxin glanced around, and asked inadvertently, "By the way, Zhaizhu Gu, where is your family?"

Gu Changkun said with a smile, "I went to the east hillside to pick camellia leaves."

Yuan Zhongxin suddenly realized.

Gu Changkun glanced at the comatose young man, and there was a flash of sternness and pride in his eyes. He turned his head, his expression had returned to normal, and he asked pretendingly worried: "Brothers, how should we deal with this sinner?"

Wang Kuan glanced at him, and suddenly asked, "Master Gu knows this person?"

Gu Changkun shook his head quickly: "I don't know, I don't know!"

Wang Kuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Since I don't know him, isn't Village Master Gu wondering why this young man created so many cases of wild beasts attacking the villagers?"

Village Master Gu froze for a moment, with a stiff smile on his face: "Well, the deceased has passed away. If I ask any more questions, I'm afraid it will stir up the sadness of the villagers, so it's better to solve it directly."

Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan secretly looked at each other.

Wei Yanei patted Gu Changkun's shoulder with a smile, and he didn't know where the pride came from on his face: "Look, let me just say it, Mr. Gu is very thoughtful in thinking about things!"

Yuan Zhongxin and the others smiled calmly and did not answer.

Gu Changkun couldn't help wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, and echoed: "It should be, it should be, hahaha."

Yuan Zhongxin drank the camellia in the cup, and then said to Gu Changkun: "Since the village master Gu is so concerned about the mood of the villagers, then we don't want to intervene too much. We have already caught him, and we have lost any ability to fight back." , then it’s all up to Village Master Gu’s judgment.”

Gu Changkun was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously: "Brother Yuan, what do you mean, let me handle this person?"

Yuan Zhongxin looked at him wholeheartedly in his spare time, and said with a half-smile: "Otherwise, this sinner will be dealt with by foreigners like us? How should I put it, only you, Gu Zhaizhu, have the ability and qualifications, right? ?"

Gu Changkun was overjoyed in his heart, but his expression remained calm. He looked at the four of them with gratitude: "Mr. Gu, I would like to thank the four of you again! Without your help, this Wumu village would not be peaceful!"

Yuan Zhongxin murmured: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, it's not time yet."

Yuan Zhongxin's voice was so soft that Gu Changkun couldn't hear it clearly, but Wang Kuan who was close to him could hear it clearly, and he secretly lowered his eyes and smiled.

Yuan Zhongxin got up: "Since the Wumuzhai case is closed, it's time for us to return to Kaifeng."

Gu Changkun was stunned: "Leave today?"

The four nodded.

Because he still had things to deal with, Gu Changkun didn't keep the four of them too much, and sent the four of them back to the inn after being polite.

After the four of them packed their bags, they came to the door of the inn and found that Gu Changkun had already led the horses out for them.

Watching Yuan Zhongxin and the others go away, the smile on Gu Changkun's face disappeared in an instant, and the light in his eyes was gloomy and terrifying, as if he was a different person. When he recalled the comatose boy in his family, he suddenly , with a sinister smile on his face.

Yuan Zhongxin and the others had "completed the mission" and returned home, and he still had to be busy for a while.

Turning around and returning home, when Gu Changkun opened the door, he found that Gu Li was staring at the young man on the ground resentfully. His eyes were extremely angry. When he realized that someone was coming in, Gu Li turned his head to look at Gu Changkun. He said angrily in a hoarse voice, "Father, this person is The culprit, right?"

Gu Changkun nodded calmly, pretending to be regretful and said: "Gu Shi, child, alas..."

Gu Li gritted his teeth and said, "Father, leave him to me to handle."

Gu Changkun was slightly taken aback, feeling rather puzzled in his heart, but the next moment, Gu Li's words dispelled his confusion.

"I want him to die in pain and avenge Uncle Wang!"
