Jianghu is so big

The girl with red braids was named Qiu Fang'er, and she lived in a courtyard since she was a child, and depended on her grandfather for life.She just turned [-] this year, looks beautiful and fresh, with dark eyes, although she is poor, she is not sloppy at all, her clothes are clean, her hair is neatly combed, she looks like she wants to live a good life.

Suddenly being brought to this inn by Lan Yan, she was naturally flustered and nervous. After seeing Li, she was so shocked by the strong chill and pressure on the other party that she dared not look up. The grandfather and grandson stood at the table in panic, At a loss, the door slammed, and suddenly there was a white-clothed man in the room, who was swept in by the fragrance of flowers and a gust of breeze, diluting the previous dullness a lot.

She glanced up secretly, and then quickly withdrew her gaze. In fact, she didn't see her face very clearly, she thought it was really white. It was as white as snow falling among plum blossom petals in winter, and it was not stained by any dirt in the world. Pass.

Li Sui said: "Tell me, how did you kill Cui Wei?"

Zhu Yanyin was stunned by this endless sentence, Cui Wei wasn't killed by the Demon Sect, how could he change people halfway?He quickly observed Qiu Fang'er again, but he didn't think that the other party looked like a disciple of Burning Fire Hall, with a pale face and red eyes, looking pitiful.But it’s not right to judge a person by their appearance, maybe she’s really a witch, she will suddenly change her face in the next moment, and she will stick out her bright red nails to pick your eyes with a sharp smile, and the kind of hair flying around.

terrible!Zhu Ergongzi was frightened by his brain power, so he decisively moved to Li Sui's side.Although the perennial black wind evil spirit of the big devil is quite scary, but it must be stronger than the demon girl.

Lan Yan was quite surprised. She didn't follow the big team all the way, but kept following the Demon Cult secretly. Therefore, although she knew that the Palace Master was traveling with the Second Young Master of the Zhu Mansion, she thought it was just traveling together. Why did she seem to be very close now? ?

Of course, neither of the parties involved has thought about "intimacy" at present, but one moved naturally, and the other did not get angry, but let him post it inch by inch with cold eyes-you know, if it is in other rivers and lakes Anyone who dared to lean against Palace Master Li must have been thrown out of the window and hung on a tree by now.

Qiu Shun said: "I killed that prostitute surnamed Cui because he wanted to spoil my granddaughter and said he would demolish the courtyard and make us homeless."

This is too villainous, Zhu Yanyin glanced at Li Sui instinctively, but saw that he was still indifferent and expressionless, as if he was not surprised at all, and the same was true for Lan Yan standing next to him. Very calm and wise, only I have never seen the world, so I was taken aback.

"..."

Qiu Shun told the whole story.

That day, the grandfather and grandson, as usual, performed on the street to make a living.Not long after the venue opened, someone threw a small ingot into the plate.

Qiu Shun has lived most of his life, and knows best that everything should be done in moderation.The folks were happy to throw two more copper coins, which is a good thing, but it would definitely be a bad thing if they exchanged for such a big silver ingot, so they hurriedly declined with a smile on their faces, but the other party refused to take it back, instead they laughed and walked away.

With such a windfall from the sky, the grandfather and grandson felt uneasy, so they closed the game early.When he was walking back, he was blocked by someone in the back alley. It was the man who gave the big bounty just now.

"He claims to be rich and powerful, and he said he wants to marry Fang'er back as a concubine." Qiu Shun said, "It seems that he drank a lot of wine, his mouth is not clean, he is an idiot."

Li Sui asked, "Is he alone?"

Qiu Shun recalled: "No, there were four other ones, three men and one woman, who stood aside at first, and then heard that his mouth became more and more shameless, and one of the tall ones came over to persuade them, saying that they should hurry up. It's important, it doesn't matter if you eat one less bite of the wild food on the street, let him not make things worse."

Lan Yan had already prepared the portraits of the four of them, and brought them over to Qiu Shunyi to identify them. They were indeed Cui Wei and his party, and the tall one was Liu Xiyang, who has been missing so far.As for the remaining woman, Qiu Shun continued: "In her forties, she is tall and tall, but she has a kind face and kind eyes, but her expression is very creepy."

Zhu Yanyin listened to her ears, and felt that this description seemed to be the same person who spread rumors in recent days, saying that he was the eyeliner of the Devil's Cult.

After Qiu Shun threw the silver ingot back, he took Qiu Fang'er back to the courtyard in a hurry.Although they didn't know how powerful that person was, they all felt that a Jianghu man with a sword must be more difficult to provoke than a rogue, so they planned to pack up their things and go back to the village for a few days to avoid the limelight.

"When did you leave the city?"

"The next morning, it was still dark."

Qiu Shun drove the pony cart and ran along the misty forest road in the early morning. The farther he was from the high city gate, the more at ease he felt.Unexpectedly, when he was walking deep in the dense forest, the horse's rein was cut off by a sword.

"Is it Cui Wei?" Zhu Yanyin asked, "Did you run into him again?"

"Yes, but it didn't happen by chance. The villain laughed and was very proud. He said he guessed that we must run away, so he kept guarding outside the courtyard and followed us all the way out of the city."

Even if there are neighbors in the city who can help, the wilderness is really unbearable. Cui Wei didn't pay attention to Qiu Shun, who was nearly [-] years old, and tore Qiu Fang'er off. The carriage wanted to be dragged on his own horse.

"So you killed him?"

"Correct."

"How did you kill it?"

"I took advantage of that villain's inattention, and kicked his life hard." Qiu Fang'er gritted her teeth, "He fell on the ground and kept yelling, saying that he would cooperate with the government to demolish the courtyard and make everyone homeless After returning home, Grandpa knocked him unconscious with a big stone, and I was so angry that I took out the sword used in performing arts and slashed him a dozen times, and then fled back to the city."

Standing thirsty, Lan Yan took out a fruit out of nowhere, wiped a couple of handfuls, and gnawed a mouthful.

The voice was too crisp, Zhu Yanyin couldn't help but glanced at her.

Question: When eating fruit, what is it like to be stared at by a snow-white and elegant nobleman with surprised eyes?

A: Thank you for the invitation, I was choked up at the time.

Lan Yan threw the fruit out of the window, and poured a cup of tea without changing his face.

Zhu Yanyin: ...you can continue to eat, it's okay!

The corner of Li Sui's mouth raised imperceptibly.

Lan Yan put down the teacup: "You killed someone, but didn't dispose of the body?"

"It's dealt with. I found an old tree pit in the woods. After throwing him in, I filled it with dead leaves and rotten branches. After seeing the portrait posted by the government, I realized that the prostitute was called Cui Wei, but he appeared again. The other two dead people came and said they were dug out from the well, but we didn’t know what happened and didn’t dare to inquire.”

"Didn't you strangle Cui Wei with hemp rope?"

"No."

"Although Cui Wei had many wounds, he was not fatal. He died of suffocation."

The grandfather and grandson were puzzled: "This..."

Zhu Yanyin kindly explained: "That is to say, you probably just knocked Cui Wei unconscious at that time. He climbed out of the old tree pit after waking up, but met the next wave of killers, was strangled and thrown into Shuijingfang, so there is no need to rush to kill him." Take the lawsuit on yourself."

After Qiu Shun and Qiu Fang'er listened, before they had time to breathe a sigh of relief, Li Sui said lightly, "Who else?"

Zhu Yanyin didn't understand, who else?

Qiu Shun stammered and opened his mouth: "No...there is no one else."

Lan Yan laughed out loud: "Although Cui Wei is a straw pillow, he still has at least three ounces of embroidery thread in his face. Just relying on the two of you, want to subdue him? I'm afraid there are helpers behind him."

As she spoke, she glanced at the street: "There is a man who has been following us out of the courtyard, and now he is standing on the opposite side of the inn with an anxious expression on his face. He did it, right? Your friend?"

Qiu Fang'er's expression suddenly became tense: "It has nothing to do with Brother Shi, he is...he wants to save me, and he also wants to save the old and young in the courtyard. We only have that house. Didn't you just say that Cui Wei is not dead? We don't have to go to court, do we?"

The shadow guards of Wanren Palace quickly brought the man up.

His name was Shi Lei, he was tall and strong, and he used to work as a nursing home for others. Later, he couldn't get used to the rich people running rampant in the village, so he moved into the courtyard and became a carpenter.

Lan Yan threw an emerald green cat's eye: "If you are honest, this is the wedding gift from my palace master to you. If you still dare to hide it, I will dig out your eyeballs."

Zhu Yanyin: "..."

Isn't this coercive interrogation method too demonic?

Shi Lei didn't expect to get a gem as soon as he entered the door. He was stunned for a moment, then looked at Qiu Shun and Qiu Fang'er, seeing that the two were still fully bearded and did not suffer, so he was relieved.He usually likes to listen to the stories of Jianghu and knows the name of Wanren Palace, so he didn't dare to look at Li Sui at this time, he only took half a step forward, and quietly protected his grandfather and grandson behind him.

As Li Sui expected, Shi Lei also participated in the whole process.After Qiu Shun and Qiu Fang'er ran back to the courtyard in panic that day, they immediately consulted with Shi Lei. It was also the idea of ​​the three of them to go out of the city and escape to the countryside.At that time Qiu Fang'er was afraid, so Shi Lei talked with her in the carriage until Cui Wei cut off the horse's rein.

Shi Lei's boxing skills are very good, he heard Cui Wei swearing and swearing, and his words were full of unsavory obscene words, he was angry in his heart, and he punched him.Qiu Fang'er was still trying to stop her at first, but Cui Wei scolded even worse, saying that the courtyard would be demolished, and the untouchables inside would freeze to death on the street.

Shi Lei wrestled with him and gradually lost the wind.Standing beside him, Qiu Shun thought that he had already lived this age, and his only concern was his granddaughter. Instead of letting her be bullied by the wicked and really arrested and sent to a brothel, it would be better to risk her old life for a stable future, so He also drew out the red-tasseled sword on the cart, and chopped it down randomly.

Cui Wei was in pain and turned around to resist, but Shi Lei tightly hugged his head and covered his mouth, his legs kicked on the ground indiscriminately, and he died not long after.

Lan Yan asked: "You handled the corpse?"

Shi Lei said: "At that time I only dragged him to a secluded place, and hurried back to the courtyard with Lord Qiu and Fang'er. Later, the more I thought about it, the more I felt it was dangerous, so I went back to the woods to bury him again, but I couldn't find him anyway. dead body."

Zhu Yanyin sat upright, listened carefully, and her expression would follow the other party's narration, producing some subtle changes, frowning or widening her eyes, or leaning forward slightly, with a face of "it's still like this".The movement was actually very small, but Palace Master Li couldn't help being too sharp, so he had to glance sideways from time to time, that kind of cold and fierce aim that everyone is familiar with.

Lan Yan stayed in Wanren Palace for five years, and it was the first time that she misunderstood the spirit of the Palace Master and thought he was annoying, so she took the initiative to invite: "Young Master Zhu, why don't you come sit with me?"

Li Sui twitched slightly.

Zhu Yanyin said, "Oh, yes."
