Chapter 42 Dark Moon and Stormy Night
The atmosphere in Chunjiang Tower in Nanjiang City is depressing.
Ever since people from all walks of life left Ji's Mansion, they all gathered together in Chunjiang Tower.
"Do you have any plans?" Xia Liu from Hongjiang Sect looked at everyone happily. What kind of ideas did they have? Everyone present was a human spirit, so how could they not know that everyone was a person with ulterior motives?
I have been sitting here for most of the day! If you have anything to say, please spread it out, otherwise I, Hongjiangmen, will not accompany you."
"Okay... Now that Brother Xia Liu has made it clear, if you are still hiding it, it's our fault." The speaker was Lin Qiu, the leader of the Haisha Sect. Outsiders called him Loach, and he has a reputation for being cunning.
The meaning of "Liu Qiu" means, "The order to search for immortals will be there."
Such a person, as for who gets it in the end, it depends on each person's ability." After a pause, he said solemnly, "It's just that the person hiding is not so easy to deal with. It can't be obvious that that person
It's from Ji's Mansion."
"Oh... what does Gang Leader Lin mean?" Xia Liu narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Qiu with a half-smile.
"Of the people present, your Guhong Sanren from Hongjiang Sect has the highest martial arts. If we are included, we can have a good competition with that secret man..."
After listening to Lin Qiu's words, Xia Liu suddenly laughed and laughed at Lin Qiu: "Hahaha... the loach is indeed a loach."
"What do you mean?" Lin Qiu couldn't help but glared at him. Although his nickname was Loach, he didn't like this insulting title. Usually people just yelled behind his back, so it didn't count.
What's the matter? But now Xia Liu screamed in front of everyone, clearly not giving him face, so he couldn't help but burst into anger.
"What do you mean?" Xia Liu looked at Lin Qiu coldly and said, "Do you think I am a fool? I, the Hongjiang Sect, cooperate with you rabble, but the Xunxian Order competes fairly with you, so I, the Hongjiang Sect, are your thugs.
?Are you here to make fun of me again?"
"You..." Lin Qiu looked at Xia Liu and was speechless for a moment. After all, that was what he had in mind. He wanted to use the power of Hongjiang Sect to hold back the secret man, so that they could look for opportunities to seize the Immortal Seeking Token. Gradually,
After calming down, Lin Qiu did not do any more business, and the plan failed again and again, "Why don't you Hongjiang Sect dare to do it?"
"I don't dare..." Xia Liu looked at Lin Qiu indifferently, and after saying something lightly, he suddenly got angry and grabbed Lin Qiu's neck with one hand.
"Gang leader..." As soon as the people from Haishamen reacted, they quickly drew their weapons and surrounded Hongjiangmen together with people from various sects. However, Xia Liu and the others were indifferent to this, and instead laughed coldly at everyone.
.
"Listen to me, if you want to kill that person, my master alone is enough. There is no need to cooperate with you." Xia Liu took his hand away from Lin Qiu's neck, looked around the crowd, and mocked.
, "Besides, are you ants like you worthy of joining forces with my Hongjiang Sect?"
Everyone looked at the Hongjiang Sect group with shame and anger, and said angrily: "Okay... okay... In this case, there is nothing to talk about. It depends on what your Hongjiang Sect is capable of. The ownership of the Xunxian Order
Not necessarily?"
"Let's go..."
The group of people from Hongjiangmen watched the Jianghu people disperse with mockery and contempt in their eyes. In fact, they had already thought about it, maybe the Xunxian Ling was really brought to the imperial capital by Ji Changdao as Sun Xiangxiang said.
It's just that Duan Jin died
Nanjiang City and the Immortal Seeking Order on him were also lost, so they couldn't help but stay. So what they have to deal with now is the secret man, not the Ji Mansion, so there is no need to fight with the Haisha Sect.
These rabble-rousers joined forces.
It’s a dark and windy night, a day of murder and arson!
Ji Wen had quietly left Ji Mansion in the evening. His body was hidden in the darkness and he was walking forward. People were coming and going in the streets and alleys, but no one noticed Ji Wen passing by them.
Ji Wen only had a rough understanding of the negotiation status of the various parties in Chunjiang Tower. But this was not important. What was important was that Ji Wen had remembered them one by one, and these people had already entered the stage he must
There will be no less than one person on the list to be killed.
Ji Wen was in a dark corner, looking at the moon in the sky. Perhaps because of the firelight in the street, the moon tonight felt particularly red and beautiful.
"The hunting has begun..." Ji Wen, who was hiding in the dark night, said in a cold and hesitant voice like a ghost, "Who should start? The seawater faction? Haha..."
For some reason, Lin Qiu had a premonition of imminent disaster since he left Chunjiang Tower, and he felt uncomfortable all over his body. He even thought about whether someone from Hongjiang Gate might do something about it?
"Everyone, be careful tonight. Arrange people to take turns keeping watch." After thinking about it, Lin Qiu became more and more uneasy and couldn't help but give the order. She even kept the sword with her and held it tightly in her hand.
The night was getting deeper, but it was still as quiet as usual, and the sleepiness was overwhelming. Lin Qiu's spirit could no longer bear it, and his eyelids gradually closed. Suddenly a gust of wind blew by, waking him up immediately, but at the same time, his
His head was touched by a pair of hands. Without any hesitation, these hands had already broken his neck. Even to the end of his life, he still had the look of being awakened. He didn't even know who his murderer was.
"The vigilance is too weak. If this kind of person lives in the forest, he will become the meal of the ferocious beasts within one night." Ji Wen said softly and left Lin Qiu's bedroom, while the two people outside the door
One of the guards had died and collapsed on the ground.
Since the Haisha Sect has taken over the entire first floor of the inn, if no one from the Haisha Sect has called, no one will come to serve him.
There are five concierges on the first floor of this inn, and there are twelve people living in the Haisha sect, large and small. However, on this quiet night, they were all wiped out by Ji Wen quietly.
Next stop!
After Ji Wen killed the people of the Haisha Sect, he did not stop, but continued to the place where the next person was.
Nanjiang City tonight is destined to be unusual, but no one in the city found this ordinary place. Everything was as peaceful as in the past. No one could have imagined that in this quiet night, more than twenty lives would be lost.
It was taken away so quietly.
Ah... before dawn, a waiter in an inn shouted in fear, waking up the people who were still sleeping one by one: "Here comes... someone is dead, someone is dead, help me..."
"What's going on?" The sleepy-eyed guests still didn't understand what was going on, and they were all very dissatisfied and yelled.
"People are dead... so many people are dead..." The panic-looking waiter led the innkeeper and everyone to the floor under the Haisha Pavilion. His legs were trembling and he did not dare to go any further.
"Useless things!" the innkeeper cursed angrily, and he and a few brave people pushed open the doors one by one, only to find that not only everyone outside the house but also everyone inside was dead.
The boss was paralyzed with fear, "How could it be? How could it be like this... Hurry... report it to the official..."
Then the same shouts could not help but be heard in other inns in Nanjiang City.
In addition to the twelve members of the Haisha sect, the news that thirteen other people from the Jianghu without any sect died overnight quickly spread in Nanjiang City. The circumstances of these people's death were different, and some were twisted.
Their necks were broken, and some had their hearts broken... but the only thing they had in common was that they were all killed with one blow.
"Who? Who did it?" Everyone else in the world had seen their deaths, and there was no sign of resistance at all. They were obviously assassinated, and the only one with such strength present was
There are people from Hongjiang Gate.
"Haha... Judging from what you are saying, it seems that you are suspicious of us." Xia Liu sat on the chair and saw everyone looking at them in unison, and couldn't help but said coldly and angrily.
"Yesterday, you wanted to kill Lin Qiu, so you are the most suspect. And only you, the Hongjiang Sect, have this strength." The two sides were at war with each other, and a fight could break out at any time.
"Okay... shut up." Gu Hong Sanren swept towards everyone coldly. I want to kill people from the Haisha sect and they won't be sneaky. "There is another murderer. I'm afraid it's the one hiding in the dark.
We are dead." After a pause, he laughed mockingly, and continued, "Based on this person's methods, I'm afraid you have become his hunting target."
When Gu Hongsan said this, everyone's expressions turned pale.
"If you want to escape this disaster, I'm afraid there is only one way." Looking at these ants who became helpless after being frightened by the incident, Gu Hongsan was full of contempt, "That is to force that person out of the darkness.
There is only one way, and that is Ji Mansion."
Everyone's eyes lit up, "Yes... the only way to find that person out of the darkness is through Ji's Mansion."
Ji Wen, who has been hiding in the dark, listened to their words one by one in his heart, and couldn't help but secretly cursed the old fox to Gu Hongsan. I originally wanted to deal with you slowly, but in this case, let's do it together today.
They are all solved!
Just when everyone was about to go to Ji's Mansion, several stones were suddenly shot from outside the building, hitting the group of people at Hongjiang Gate one by one.
"It's a small trick..." Gu Hong Sanren waved his sleeves, and a strong force blew through him, knocking down the flying stones one by one. There was still a little anger hidden under his indifferent expression, "Is it really you...
"
"It's him..." Everyone just saw Ji Wen's disappearing figure and immediately chased after him, "It's him! The murderer must be him... Chase quickly..."
"Chasing..." Guhong Sanren and the others did not hesitate at all and immediately chased after him. Now he was basically sure that the person who killed his disciple Duan Jin was most likely this person.
More than 20 people died in Nanjiang City overnight. There is no way Ji Mansion wouldn’t know about it!
In the lobby of Ji Mansion, Sun Xiangxiang frowned and listened to the reports from her subordinates.
"None of the thirteen people in the Haisha Sect can be considered as second- or third-rate masters of Jianghu, but they were killed silently on the same night. Who is the murderer?"
"Madam, could it be that person?"
"You mean..." Sun Xiangxiang confirmed with a hint of confusion, "You mean yesterday..."
The lieutenant below nodded. Although the man had not shown up, but with that killing intent alone, he definitely had that kind of strength. But why did he kill those people? This is what they couldn't figure out.
"Okay... you go down first and pay close attention to their every move. If there is any mischief, I allow you to kill them first and then report them." Sun Xiangxiang gave the order sternly.
Sigh... It's been such an eventful year... There have been so many things going on recently that Sun Xiangxiang couldn't help but feel dizzy. Unconsciously, she came to Ji Wu's training place.
