Kirin family

When I returned to the inn, I found that Lin Xuan had woken up. He was seriously injured and lost a lot of blood. Even his entire face was pale, and there was no blood on his lips. Yan Xiuwen could help him bandage the wound. Give him medicine, and the rest will be replenished slowly.

There are a lot of people in the Jianghu in Sanqi Town, and there are quite a few people who immediately started to fight when their blood came up, but they were all small troubles. I haven't heard of any fatalities. Maybe they were dealt with after they were killed. In short, it's nothing Some face the news of personal casualties.Therefore, Lin Xuan's medicine is not difficult to buy at all. Yan Xiuwen bought back all the good medicinal materials that Lin Xuan can use from several big pharmacies in Sanqi Town, and Zuo Liuyun Villa is not short of those funds.

"Lin Xuan?" Gu Ya sat on the side of the bed: "Do you feel better?"

Lin Xuan nodded, his complexion was not good, but his appearance was still cheerful, he said with a smile, "I heard from Doctor Yan that you are very worried about me this time." Gu Ya frowned, "You almost I'm about to die, can I not worry? The next time something like this happens, my life is more important."

Lin Xuan sighed: "I also know that my life is important, but isn't it too late then?" He took a sip of tea and began to tell Gu Ya and Qi Guanyan about his previous affairs at Zhou's house.

There are not only secret rooms in Zhou Yunfeng's study, but also secret passages.The study room was full of Zhou Yunfeng's blood, and no one took care of it. When he stepped in, he felt eerie, as if he had arrived in front of the Senluo Hall. The secret passage was very difficult to find. Lin Xuan first checked Zhou Tao's yard, his The death is miserable, so it can be seen that there must be something inside, and he really found a clue from his small yard.

The servant girls who died in his yard had no one to collect their corpses, they just threw their corpses into the well behind his courtyard.The well is located deep in the grass in the yard. It seems to have been abandoned for a long time, and the inside has also dried up. The diameter is large enough for a grown man to fit in. It is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. Lin Xuan threw a stone into it, and he heard a crisp landing Voices.

If it were an ordinary well that went straight up and down, with so many corpses thrown into it, if a small stone rolled in, there would be a dull sound of hitting the corpses, and there would definitely be no sound of hitting the ground.So Lin Xuan bravely jumped in, and found that there was indeed something wrong in the well.

In addition to dozens of rotting corpses, there are several air holes in the well, which seem to lead to other places. There is an echo when there is a light tap, which shows that the space opposite the air holes must be quite large.

Lin Xuan speculated that Zhou Tao might have gotten some information about secret ways from somewhere, but it was found out by interested people, and he died innocently in the end.

"Who cares?" Qi Guanyan asked strangely, "If Zhou Yunfeng knew the news that Zhou Tao had obtained the secret way, he might really kill people to silence him, but Zhou Yunfeng is dead, would anyone else kill people because of the secret way?"

Lin Xuan replied: "I'm afraid that person has already regarded the secret way as his own thing... What's more, it may not only kill people to silence them, but also torture them to extract confessions? That person probably only knows the secrets in Zhou Yunfeng's study. He probably has no idea where the secret passage leads to, otherwise the Qilin sword would not be left there." After finishing speaking, he looked at the Qilin sword hanging on Qi Guanyan's waist, and raised his eyebrows.

Qi Guanyan was a little embarrassed. Anyway, it was something Lin Xuan found. At that time, he was excited when he saw the Qilin Sword. Now that he calmed down and thought about it, it was indeed not very kind.

Who knew that Gu Ya opened his mouth, "It's alright, a betrothal gift."

Lin Xuan widened his eyes, looked at Gu Ya and then at Qi Guanyan, only to find that Qi Guanyan just smiled awkwardly, did not refute, and looked at Yan Xiuwen again in disbelief.Yan Xiuwen coughed lightly, and asked aloud, "And then? How did you find that secret way?"

Lin Xuan licked his lips, planning to get entangled in the matter of Gu Ya and Qi Guanyan later, and continued following Yan Xiuwen's question.

Zhou Tao seemed to know the specific opening of Zhou Yunfeng's secret way, and he thought that he could inherit the huge family property of the Zhou family. The treasure map and the unicorn sword were all in his pocket, so he told the matter to a person he liked. Big maid.Suffering from no clues, Lin Xuan rummaged through the corpses in the well, and found some broken silver and something similar to keepsakes in a maid's brocade bag, besides, there was a lonely note Suddenly, only the words "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" were written on the note.

The note appeared in the wrong place, and "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" was not something a maid would read. Lin Xuan immediately realized that this was the key to opening the secret passage.

When he mentioned this, even Qi Guanyan wrinkled his face. Although he was not there, he felt a chill just listening to Lin Xuan's description. Just the sight of Yu Tian's corpse makes people shudder, let alone the brocade bag attached to the body?

Lin Xuan returned to Zhou Yunfeng's study, but he didn't find the book "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" on his bookshelf. Just when he thought it was a mistake in his guess, he suddenly found that there seemed to be a random book on the small couch and coffee table in the side room of the study. There was a copy of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", and he went up to read it, and found that there were many red circles in it.

He counted the things in the red circle again, and found that the number was ninety-nine. Just when he was wondering where to use it, he found that the couch seemed to be empty.He groped the small couch up and down, and found that the board next to the floor could be moved left and right. After moving to the right, it was not a common storage place, but a small wooden peg, holding him The previously calculated things moved several times, and finally opened the entrance to the secret passage.

Gu Ya frowned and said, "Is there a red circle drawn on "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"?"

Lin Xuan nodded: "Yeah, this subordinate still finds it strange. It stands to reason that no one in the entire Zhou family, except Zhou Yunfeng himself, should know where he stores the treasure map and the unicorn sword. It is a place that only you know. You have to draw a red circle to remind yourself."

Gu Ya frowned and didn't speak, seemed to think for a while, and then said: "And then?"

Lin Xuan continued to talk. The secret road was extremely long and passed through the entire Zhou family. There were many air holes along the way in exchange for air, but the places where they were beaten were relatively hidden, and there were some hidden weapons. Most of the injuries on his body were from just now. When you go in, you can't avoid what you suffer.The secret room is not big, and there are no other treasures in it, only the Qilin sword is placed in the center, and four stone slabs are placed below it.

Lin Xuan subconsciously went to get the unicorn sword. Unexpectedly, after he picked up the unicorn sword from the sword stand, the stone door of the secret room fell down suddenly. To the way out, the air in the secret room became thinner and thinner. I heard the sound of muffled water outside one of the walls. There was no other water source near Sanqi Town, only this stream. The Qilin sword, which is said to be the best sword in the world, was rumored to cut iron like mud, and it was miraculous, so it used all its internal strength to hack at the wall.

Perhaps it is because there is flowing water outside the wall, the pressure is not small. This secret room has been built for nearly 20 years, but he actually made several openings. Although the upper part is a stream, the underground river below is very deep. It is very wide, and the speed and momentum of rushing into the secret room are very strong. Lin Xuan was seriously injured, and was knocked out by the water flow and wall debris for a while, and then rolled all the way underground along the water flow until he came out three times. Seven Towns slowly floated up with the current.

Speaking of this, even Lin Xuan himself has lingering fears. The underground river is extremely fast, and he was lucky enough to float to the top.

Although he spoke lightly and only briefly mentioned the hidden weapons in the secret passage, Qi Guanyan and Gu Ya knew that the danger must not be simple.Lin Xuan's skills are well-known in the list of celebrities in Jianghu, especially his lightness kung fu. If he hadn't been seriously injured before, he wouldn't have used such a dangerous method in the end. The wounds on his body when he was discovered by Gu Ya and the others are enough to explain everything .

"That means you didn't fight anyone?" Gu Ya asked, "Is there no one left in the Zhou family?"

Lin Xuan nodded: "I'm afraid it is. I took a look around Zhou's house before entering the secret room. I just thought this house was really scary. According to what we heard before, Zhou Yunfeng and Zhou Tao should be the only ones who died in Zhou's house." , and the servants in Zhou Tao’s yard, but I went around Zhou’s residence and found that bloodstains can often be seen in places other than Zhou Yunfeng’s study and Zhou Tao’s small yard.”

"Then did you see the corpse?" Gu Ya asked: "Is the dismissal of the servants to deceive people? After all, so many people died."

Lin Xuan shook his head and said, "I didn't investigate one by one, I was only thinking about the Qilin sword...but the corpses are probably still in Zhou's house, some courtyards...the smell is quite strong."

Gu Ya breathed out lightly: "In your opinion, how many people are left in the Zhou family?"

Lin Xuan whispered: "I'm afraid that except for the second young master who moved out, the third young master who returned home with his biological mother, and Mrs. Ruyi who went to seek refuge with Song Yan, everyone else is dead."

Gu Ya seemed a little tired, stroked his forehead and said: "That means the whole family was slaughtered, even the servants were not spared."

Lin Xuan was taken aback for a moment: "And those two?"

Gu Ya nodded: "One said that Fuyang City died now, and the other just happened this afternoon." Lin Xuan was speechless for a while, there hadn't been a massacre in Jianghu for a long time, and Zhou Yunfeng, because of the previous Qilin family, He is still very famous in the Jianghu, not to mention his character, he is still regarded as a hero of the white way. This bloody case was too tragic, and it was mixed with a unicorn sword and a treasure map. I am afraid that in the days to come , this rivers and lakes will not be peaceful again.
