How can there be a brother in the rivers and lakes to have fun?

That night.

The moonlight is excellent, clear and clear, very quiet, occasionally looking up, the few stars are faintly twinkling.Such a moonlit night after winter often indicates that an extremely cold morning will usher in tomorrow, so most of the people in Yinxian Town at the foot of Changyun Peak and beyond the Bamboo Sea closed their doors early and sat on the warm kang. The last family sleeps soundly.

The only ones who couldn't sleep at this time were the night watchmen and the watchmen.Carrying the lantern and knocking on the clapper, there are three wooden bangs, followed by a sentence that is familiar to every household——

"It's dry, be careful with candles."

Old Wangtou just finished shouting this sentence, but heard a huff behind him.Ji Ling turned his head to look, only to see two feathers floating down from mid-air.The old Wangtou was a little puzzled, and when the feather fell to the ground, he picked it up—a black feather, long and big, very regular, and the color of the fur was beautiful, even slightly silvery under the moonlight.There are two strands of red mixed inside, like blood on the fur.

It seems to be the feathers of a crow, but how can a crow grow so shiny?

And now that it's winter, the crows return to their nests at ten o'clock at dusk, so how could they come out in the middle of the night?

As a qualified watchman who loves his post and works hard, Lao Wang knows very well what it means to do more than do less.However, if something goes wrong, the watchman will resign, so in the final analysis, no matter what happens, it is the watchman's business.So, following the direction of the wind just now, Lao Wang held the lantern and walked into the deep alley——

"Anyone?"

To yell first is also to give yourself courage.The old Wang tapped his clapper again:

"Is there anyone inside? Are you a hero passing by or a hero in trouble, don't make things difficult for the little old man as a watchman."

Although the law and order in Yinxian Town has always been good, in the early years there were constant martial arts fights, and there were many heart-pounding things in the places near Lingxu Sword Gate.Heroes kill and rob goods in the middle of the night. If the watchman finds out, he will always be silenced; but if he hears the noise and doesn’t take a look, someone will find the body tomorrow, and the watchman will be scolded again——Feudalism The working people at the bottom of society shed tears of bitterness in their hearts.

Next to the alley was a three-story inn, which just blocked the moonlight at this time, casting a shadow in the deepest part of the alley.Lao Wang scolded viciously in his heart, where is the inn open? It has to be blocked from the light at this time. If the moonlight illuminates this place clearly, it won't be so scary.Old Wang knocked on the clapper again:

"The knight inside..."

"Crap."

Someone suddenly spoke, and Lao Wang was so frightened that he almost knelt on the ground.The man's tone was colder than the northwest wind in this season. With a few rustling sounds in the darkness, Lao Wang subconsciously backed away, and finally saw someone coming out from the shadow of the alley.He was dressed in black capable clothes, and at first glance he was empty-handed and unarmed; but the first thing Lao Wang saw was a crow on his shoulder.The crow's feathers were black and shiny, and it was almost as big as a dog.At this time, those dark eyes were staring at Lao Wang, which made Lao Wang's back feel cold.

That man was also like a crow, he was dressed in black warrior clothes without any mottled color, as if a crow had become a spirit.I didn't see any weapons he was carrying, but his hands were stained with blood.The man was taller than Lao Wang, and when he passed Lao Wang, he gave him a sideways look.Old Wang took three steps back again and again, leaning against the wall, not daring to speak out.It wasn't until the crow spirit walked out of the alley that Old Wang finally heard his own heartbeat.

It was as if the blood in the whole body was frozen for an instant, and then finally flowed again at this time.For a while, Lao Wang slumped on the ground and gasped for breath, feeling as if he had escaped from death.

The man's appearance was not ugly, he could even be called handsome.With a face like a white jade cut by a knife, with beautiful and handsome features, he should be the favorite handsome gentleman of the sisters.

It's just that the skin is not only not black like a crow, but white, dead white.Even more frightening were his eyes, which Old Wang swore he could see clearly.

Those eyes are purple.

A strange man with purple eyes, and even more peculiar, he has a pair of red eyelashes.

Purple eyes and red eyelashes, he is a monster.

Lao Wang swallowed his saliva until the cold wind made him shiver, then he stood up tremblingly and walked towards the alley.Beifeng whimpered like a ghost crying, Lao Wang's lantern finally illuminated the darkness——

"what!"

The screams startled the crows into flying, hula la a black shadow covered the moonlight.The inn next to it was the first to be alarmed, and the lights gradually came on, but the two rooms were always dark.

"Ah, ah, ah...Ah! ——Who the hell opened the window so wide and froze me to death? Second Senior Brother closed the window, hiss, Senior Brother, what did you just say?"

Jian Qianshan and Feng Heming: "..."

In the daily life of Jianmen, the younger brother is a stick maker, what should I do if I want to kill him?

Best answer, just think about it.You have nothing to do with this kind of skinless and shameless junior except pampering him.So Feng Heming got up, closed the window so that there was only a gap for ventilation, Jian Qianshan turned the charcoal in the brazier, and made the fire more prosperous:

"I said, someone died at the foot of the mountain, and Master wants the three of us to go down the mountain to have a look."

Xingheying rubbed the tip of her nose: "I don't seem to have caused any trouble recently..."

"Three days later, a batch of emergency pills will be refined in the alchemy room. After all, the last renovation of the alchemy room was only in early autumn."

oh.indifferent.Xingheying showed her understanding with both hands: "Brother, continue to say, isn't the homicide case the government's? The county magistrate Zou went home to coax his wife again?"

Jian Qianshan sighed: "Master lost the bet with Elder Ming Xin, and Elder Ming Xin owed money to County Magistrate Zou, so he asked us to help, and this nonsense account will be written off."

Feng Heming: "Is it okay for me to pay back the money for Elder Mingxin? After all, we Zheliu Villa..."

"Twenty-three thousand taels of silver."

Feng Heming: "Pretend I didn't say anything. Continue."

Xingheying jumped up and rolled up his arms and sleeves: "Why does he owe so much?! Did he tear down the county government office or rob the treasury?!"

"Yesterday, County Magistrate Zou said that there was good wine, so he asked Elder Mingxin to go and taste it. After the elder went, he did not expect that the 'missing' smashed the jug. Magistrate Zou said that the jug was an old thing from the Zhou Dynasty, and it belonged to King Wu. It was used when he defeated Zhou, and it was worth 30 taels of silver; he also said that since the elders were unintentional, then it would be good to discount the elders’ 3 taels for respecting the old and loving the young; because he was the one who invited the elders to drink first, he also had Wrong, so the elder will just pay him 3000 taels of silver."

Jian Qianshan said it with a cold face, probably used up all the expressions of the whole year when he heard about it on the way home.Xingheying could only feel a mouthful of old blood sticking to his chest: "...Why didn't he take the ax left behind by Pangu Kaitian, so that if something bad happens, we can just throw Elder Mingxin out!"

"Don't make trouble." Jian Qianshan sighed again, "The elder doesn't want to, he has already gone to Wutiyuan to think about it. This time, things are really complicated... The watchman said that he saw the murderer, and it was a man with purple eyes and red eyelashes. people."

"Huh?" Xingheying was taken aback, "Huh??"
