Sword God is hard to catch

Chapter 23 One-sided Cold War

There is an old saying, "the world is unpredictable".

An ancient duel between two peak swordsmen for the sword, in the blink of an eye, Ye Gucheng robbed Ximen Chuuxue's woman. The bloody version of the beauty's return.

Moreover, it is obvious that this version is more favored by the heroes and heroes, except for a few superficially self-proclaimed people.

The perpetrators knew nothing about it.

The tea is ordinary clear tea, which is not as clear as plum blossoms.The water is ordinary well water, which is not as sweet as snow water.

Qin Ni found that appetite was in danger of being spoiled.

Perhaps Lu Xiaofeng likes to drink, but he doesn't care about tea. In just these two days, at least two of his friends died. He has too many worries and depressions.He also had too many questions he wanted to ask Tan Ni.

"Where is Ximen Chuuxue?" This was Lu Xiaofeng's first question, and it was also the question he was most concerned about.

"I don't know." Tan Ni said.

Lu Xiaofeng was surprised: "I don't know?"

Qin Ni said, "We are in a cold war."

"Cold war?" Lu Xiaofeng was stunned.

"It's just a quarrel, ignore each other." Tan Ni explained blankly, but missed a key word "unilateral".

Ximen Chuuxue even quarreled and ignored each other?Lu Xiaofeng and Li Yanbei looked at each other, and they both saw this sentence in each other's eyes.

"Why?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.

Tan Ni said, "Because he is going to die."

Li Yanbei's face froze.

Lu Xiaofeng's complexion was also not very good-looking, and his heart sank a little bit. He knew that no one knew Ximen Chuuxue's sword better than Tan Ni. There must be a reason for her to say that. His voice was a little harsh, "Why?"

Tan Ni was silent for a moment before saying, "He was injured. A group of people attacked him a month ago."

If someone else said this, Lu Xiaofeng would not believe it, but Tan Ni said it, then it must be true.Li Yanbei's eyes had completely dimmed, like a hero who had lost everything and had nowhere to go.

Lu Xiaofeng's heart was heavy and uncomfortable, "Who sneaked up on him?"

Qin Ni fell silent.

After a long time, until Lu Xiaofeng suspected that she knew who the other party was, she spoke much slower than usual, and said slowly, "I don't know."

Lu Xiaofeng stared at her closely, hoping to see something from her face, but Tan Ni didn't look at him, just stared at the tea leaves floating in the tea water, without any expression on his face, as usual.

Lu Xiaofeng slowly asked a question that had nothing to do with the present, at least Li Yanbei didn't know why he asked, "Why do you have to look at Shangguan Feiyan's hand?"

Tan Ni didn't seem to be surprised by his question, but she still stared at the tea and remained silent.

Lu Xiaofeng asked again: "You avoided the embroidery thief, why?"

Qin Ni remained silent.

Lu Xiaofeng was a little annoyed.

Tan Ni suddenly raised his head, looked at him, and said, "If I say it's intuition, would you believe me?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked at her, and the anger in his heart suddenly disappeared. He nodded and said, "I believe. I believe in friends."

Tan Ni's expression moved, as if there was a hint of warmth, she said: "In the case of Jinpeng Dynasty, except for the first time I met Shangguan Feiyan, she has been on guard against me since then, as if deliberately preventing me from seeing her. Hand, until the end, someone transferred me with the Yonghe Street extermination case, after which Shangguan Feiyan's body disappeared. I was just a small policeman, what made anyone so wary of me? What I did The only outrageous thing I ever did was to submit a letter of arrest for Ximen Chuuxue to the yamen (Lu Xiaofeng twitched the corners of his mouth). At that time, I didn’t know that he was Ximen Chuuxue. Well, actually, I didn’t even know you were Lu Xiaofeng or something. (Lu Xiaofeng: I'm not 'whatever') and I don't even know."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "So, you avoided the case of the embroidered thief, and you took the opportunity to stay in Wanmei Villa for a few months (both public and private). A police officer of the imperial court should not be able to rest for more than half a year without reason. Yes. You have to give the Yamen an explanation, even if you have outstanding abilities."

Qin Ni nodded, "The imperial court has always attached great importance to going to work on time, even if I was late, I would be punished. But they not only didn't fire me, they didn't even punish me. At that time, Jin Jiuling was already dead."

Lu Xiaofeng lowered his head and said solemnly: "You thought it was Jin Jiuling, but it's not."

Tan Ni said, "Yes, unfortunately not."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Jin Jiuling once said that he was only afraid of one person. I used to think it was me, but later, I found out it wasn't."

Qin Ni said, "I shouldn't have come to the capital."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Then why did you come?" His eyes suddenly lit up, "Is it because of Ximen Chuuxue?"

Tan Ni turned his head and said, "No. Someone asked me to investigate the case."

Lu Xiaofeng saw that her mouth seemed to be indistinctly pouted, and the denial was too fast, he suddenly smiled, no matter how heavy some things are, there are always things that can make people feel comfortable, isn't it?

Li Yanbei had been sitting quietly drinking tea and did not disturb them.At this time, he spoke, "Do you suspect that it was that person who attacked Ximen Chuuxue?"

Tan Ni and Lu Xiaofeng were silent, they had no way to answer this question, because they didn't know, they didn't even know the benefits of attacking Ximen Chuuxue, the only one who could get benefits seemed to be Ye Gucheng.But--

"Ye Gucheng is not such a person." Lu Xiaofeng said.

Tan Ni had never met Ye Gucheng, so he couldn't comment, but Li Yanbei also nodded.

Lu Xiaofeng asked suddenly: "On a full moon night, on the summit of purple gold, a sword comes to the west, flying immortals from beyond the sky. Who proposed to change the date?" He knew that Ximen Chuuxue couldn't change the date because of his injury, even if he died, he wouldn't Will be rescheduled.

Tan Ni said, "Ximen Chuuxue."

Even Li Yanbei was stunned.

Tan Ni said again: "Because I said, if he doesn't cancel the decisive battle, I will challenge Ye Gucheng after he dies."

Both Lu Xiaofeng and Li Yanbei understood that the injured Ximen Chuuxue would definitely not be Ye Gucheng's opponent, he had only one outcome, which was death.But he absolutely didn't want Tan Ni to die, so he could only compromise.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "It is impossible for him to cancel the decisive battle, he can only postpone it."

Qin Ni nodded.

Lu Xiaofeng understood, that's why Ximen Chuuxue's whereabouts were kept secret, because he had to find a safe place and try his best to recover from his injuries.What he bears is not one life, but probably two, because even he himself can't be sure whether Tan Ni will challenge Ye Gucheng if he dies, the best way is to try his best to guarantee his own life .

"Then why are you still fighting?" Lu Xiaofeng said.

Qin Ni said: "Because my request is 'cancel'."

Lu Xiaofeng sighed: "It's impossible for him to do that."

Tan Ni said: "I know. But just because I know it doesn't mean I can't be angry. So, I decided to ignore him. I didn't ask him where he was, and I didn't care if he was healed or not."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "But you came." You came all the way, knowing that you shouldn't come.

Qin Ni immediately said, "I'm here to investigate the case."

This time, even Li Yanbei laughed.
