Everyone in the hall was taken aback, and they turned their heads to look at the door. They saw not only Huo Jue, but also a large group of people crowding outside the door behind him. Dare to take over casually.

Although Ji Qinglin couldn't see Huo Jue's expression, he could fully imagine his calm and pretentious appearance in the mansion as usual, and with so many people with him at this time, the deterrent effect can be imagined.

Huo Jue didn't pay attention to their reactions, his eyes swept across the faces of the waiters one by one like a knife's edge, and when they fell on the face of a young boy who was grabbing medicine at the counter, the young boy swallowed and quickly put his hands down Looking at the medicine scale inside, he said timidly, "I... I am."

"come out."

Huo Jue didn't say any more after dropping two words, he turned around and went out the door.

At this time, Xiao Sun must be beating his heart, but he was named to find him, and there are so many people, it is obvious that he cannot shirk.

Although he was apprehensive in his heart, he still bit the bullet and followed out, but after all he didn't dare to get too close, he just slowly trailed behind the group of people.

Arriving at a secluded corner not far from the hall, Huo Jue stopped and turned around, looked at Xiao Sun who was surrounded by everyone from the Shocking Sect and asked, "Is that the letter you sent to Lingfangyuan just now?"

Xiaosun probably thought that these people were here to find fault or cause trouble, but now he was obviously relieved when he heard that the question was about this fault, but he still didn't understand why, nodded and said in a low voice: "Yes, yes. "

"Who asked you to send it?" Huo Jue asked.

Xiao Sun was startled, probably not understanding whether he was accusing him of not delivering the letter or really asking who the person who asked him to deliver the letter was, and said inexplicably: "No, no one asked me to deliver it...the letter will be placed in the On the counter, it says 'Passed by the Hall Master', just like last time."

"Last time?" Huo Jue asked suspiciously.

Xiao Sun nodded quickly and said: "Yes, just a few days ago, it was the same letter. I don't know who sent it, I only know that it was written to the hall master."

"A few days ago?" Huo Jue frowned.

Hearing this, Ji Qinglin was suddenly stunned.

Originally, he was still thinking that since there was already a letter before, Huo Jue should know what the "time and place" mentioned in the letter was when he saw the second letter, and he should also know that the identity of the person who wrote the letter cannot be traced at all. That's right, why didn't you go directly to Xiaoyulin, and why did you come to Jiyuantang to find Xiaosun?

Now he understood - not only did Chi Ruogu not discuss with Huo Jue in the second letter, but Huo Jue didn't even know about the first letter.

While understanding this point, another question in Ji Qinglin's mind was also answered.

Earlier, Chi Ruogu said that the reason why he asked the soldiers sent by Ulanda to deliver the corpses to bring a letter back to Qidi asking Xie Wuyi and them to come was because Huo Jue had counted the days and thought that Xie Wuyi would have time to make the agreed "deal" "A few days ago, I rushed from Qidi to Yuzhou.

At that time, Ji Qinglin didn't know the specific method of the Four Seasons Valley fireworks communication, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with Chi Ruogu's words, but now that he thought about it now, he found that it was actually unreasonable—since they hoped that Xie Wuyi would come as soon as possible , why not directly communicate with the Four Seasons Valley Fireworks?Isn't that the fastest way?Wouldn't it be better to ask soldiers to travel long distances to bring letters back to Qidi?

Now that Huo Absolutely didn't know about these two letters, there is an explanation for this kind of "seeking far away"-because the firework communication needs to alarm the communication point, Huo can never be unaware, and only through the letter The only way to avoid the eyes and ears of Huo Jue and Jing Juemen.

Huo Jue was obviously very surprised by the news that Xiao Sun revealed at the moment, he was silent for a moment, and asked again: "Do you know what was written in the letter?"

"Of course I don't know!" Xiao Sun waved his hands with his eyes wide open as if shocked, "The letter is written to the hall master, how dare I open it privately?"

Huo Jue probably also expected this result. The reason why he asked this was just a fluke. Seeing that he denied it, he didn't say any more. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go back."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and headed towards Lingfang Garden with everyone from the Jingjue Sect.

Back in the garden, Huo Jue went into Chi Ruogu's room again, but this time he was no longer alone, but asked everyone from the Jingjuemen to look for other letters in the room.

After a while, a person found a letter from the bookshelf at the side, and the words "Hall Master's personal letter" were also written on the envelope.

Without saying a word, Huo Jue took it apart and took a look. When he saw "Little Yulin at Moonrise", he immediately ordered: "Take your things and follow me out of the city."

Ji Qinglin didn't know what the "things" he meant at first, but when he saw the people leaving the house and scattered away, Huo Jue also went back to his own room, and returned to the garden again after carrying the longbow and quiver on his back.

At this time, all the people had swords hanging on their waists and torches in their hands. After gathering in the garden, they marched out of the city in a mighty manner.

After leaving the city, Huo Jue looked at the bright moon in the sky. It was obviously past the "moon rising time" mentioned in the letter, but he didn't stop because of this, and continued to lead the people towards Xiao Yulin.

In the process of walking to Xiao Yulin, no one spoke, but amidst the silent footsteps, Ji Qinglin's feelings were actually extremely complicated, because he knew that the place these people were going to would become the end of their lives.

The process of the fierce battle inferred from the corpses must be completely different from the feeling of watching them die in battle. Ji Qinglin even wanted to remind them: don't go any further, there is danger there.

However, after all, he is just a bystander of this memory that has already happened. He can do nothing but watch them step into the trap.

At this time, the area around Xiao Yulin was probably full of ambush soldiers from men in black robes, waiting to catch turtles in an urn after they stepped in.

However, until now Ji Qinglin was still unable to determine whether the person who set the trap in this small Yulin was Chi Ruogu or the man in black, or whether it was their conspiracy.

When Qingjiu Town suspected that Chi Ruogu was the inner ghost, Ji Qinglin was almost sure that he was the murderer who killed Huo Jue and Jing Juemen, and naturally believed that all his accounts of what happened in Xiao Yulin were fabricated.

However, when he reconciled with Xie Wuyi and returned to Lingfang Garden to find the three missing, he also found traces of Mixiang in Chi Ruogu's room.

This made both Ji Qinglin and Xie Wuyi shake their speculations.

If Chi Ruogu and the man in the black robe were really together, then it would be understandable for the man in the black robe to take away Yin Luo and Shi Buyu, but why didn't he let him go?

Just as Ji Qinglin was thinking quickly, the outline of Xiao Yulin appeared in front of him. Ji Qinglin knew that what should come was still coming, even if he didn't want to experience this fight anymore, it would still come as scheduled.

After this fight, everything about Chi Ruogu will probably come to light, so he has to watch it if he wants to, and he has to watch it if he doesn't want to.

After a while, everyone arrived at the edge of the Little Yulin. Huo Jue glanced at the ground in the forest, and realized that it was unnecessary for them to bring torches, because although the trees in the forest were lush, there was a gap between the trees. However, the distance between the treetops is relatively long, and there is no interlacing between the tree crowns. On such a cloudless and clear night, it is completely possible to move forward smoothly with the help of the moonlight cast from the sky.

However, he did not order the torches to be extinguished. Anyway, it is better to be brighter than darker. The situation in the forest is unknown, and who knows if there will be any unexpected needs.

After stepping into the forest, Huo Jue drew an arrow from the quiver behind his back and put it on the longbow, and everyone in the Jingjue family also drew their swords at the side.

They walked very cautiously, with extremely slow steps, and each of them faced different directions when walking, so as to keep their companions' backs under the control of their companions while guarding their backs.

In Ji Qinglin's view, this is very rare, which shows that everyone in Jingjuemen is well-versed in the way of fighting and well-trained. However, to Ji Qinglin, this is already a confrontation that knows the outcome, no matter how careful he is , the enemy will appear and win sooner or later, the only suspense is when they will appear.

As everyone went deeper into the forest, Ji Qinglin's heart was also suspended little by little, but at the same time, a trace of doubt suddenly arose.

According to Ji Qinglin's memory of that night, there should have been corpses where they were standing, but why hasn't the man in black appeared yet?Could it be that they did it when they were deeper, but they just ran here during the fight?

Huo Jue's eyes kept scanning the forest, as if he wanted to find Chi Ruogu's whereabouts, but he found nothing.

At this moment, there was a "click" sound, and the sound of a branch breaking came from above his head. Ji Qinglin was startled: So the ambush was on a tree?

"Beware!"

Huo Jue's reaction was extremely fast, and at the same time as he spoke to remind, he raised his hand and drew his bow "嗖" and shot an arrow at the place where the sound came from like lightning, and then looked up there.

Just when Ji Qinglin thought he was about to see the man in black, he saw a shining arc rushing towards him from the canopy of the tree. Before Ji Qinglin could figure out what it was, Huo Jue's head was doused with a "crash" All dripping.

At the same time, the sound of rushing water continued one after another, and water was poured from the surrounding tree canopy at the same time, accompanied by the sound of the torches being extinguished, making everyone happy.

Although Ji Qinglin couldn't control Huo Jue's body, the sense of touch on Huo Jue's body was also a part of his memory, and he could naturally feel that Huo Jue was drenched all over at this time, but what he didn't understand was that the black-robed man's sneak attack actually Not a sword, but... water?

What can water be used for?Is it just to extinguish their torches?

At this time, everyone in the Jingjue Sect had gathered together in a shrinking formation, looking at the canopy with swords in their hands, and Huo Jue even pulled out several long arrows from behind, turned around in a circle and "swished" the surrounding tree canopies. All the men in black robes who were hiding fell to the ground.

However, the people in black robes are all in the state of sealing their souls, they are not afraid of swords and arrows, even if they are hit by arrows, it seems that there is no serious problem.

"Pull out the needle!" Huo Jue yelled, and before he reminded, everyone in the Shocking Sect had already scattered and rushed towards the men in black robes who had fallen to the ground.

Following Huo Jue's gaze, Ji Qinglin saw those black-robed men clearly, but to his surprise, all the black-robed men who landed were only seven or eight in total, which was nothing compared to the corpses he saw strewn across the field that night. Does not match.

Could it be... this is just the first wave?Is there a follow-up to the ambush?

Ji Qinglin was very sure about his guess, because not to mention the lack of numbers, it would be too childish to just say their "attack" method - splashing water, can this be considered an attack?

However, what Ji Qinglin didn't expect was that before the people from the Jingjuemen ran to the men in black robes, they would kneel down one after another with "plops". At the same time, Huo Jue also felt a sense of exhaustion. , and even his footsteps faltered.

Immediately afterwards, the kneeling Jingjue Sect members fell one by one forward or sideways, the sword in their hands fell to the ground with a clang, and Huo Jue also knelt down on his knees slowly as if his whole body was weak, with his hands resting on the ground and panting heavily Come.

Following his panting, Ji Qinglin also felt a burst of suffocation, followed by a severe dizziness as when he just remembered.

As Huo Jue finally collapsed and lost consciousness due to difficulty supporting himself, Ji Qinglin instantly escaped from the feeling of suffocation and dizziness. .

There is a problem with the water.

This is the conclusion that Ji Qing came to at this moment, he realized that he was ridiculously naive, how could the man in black use such a harmless method as "water attack" to sneak attack?I can't help thinking that they are too stupid.

There was no fighting, no confrontation of swords, everything happened in the blink of an eye, Huo Jue and everyone from Jingjuemen just fell to the ground with several pots of "water".

However, Ji Qinglin still couldn't figure it out, since the black-robed man had already taken Huo Jue and the others down so easily, and not even one of them was damaged, then he reconciled Wuyi and the others that night when they entered the forest and saw corpses strewn all over the field Where did it come from?

Also, when Ye Zai, Ji Qinglin and the others arrived, Huo Jue was still alive, so how could he lose it here?
