Chapter 47(1/2)
When Shi Huang heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
Shen Mo looked at Qi Cheng, nodded and said, "Yes, it's those two."
Qi Cheng's face was a little unnatural, and his tone was urgent. He asked: "I wonder where my two friends are now?"
Shi Huang looked at Silence's face thoughtfully.
Silent and without hesitation, he said casually: "The two of them encountered some trouble in Daomakan, so they delayed their arrival here, so they asked me to come and give a message to Officer Yan first."
"I see." Qi Cheng nodded, paused slightly, and then asked, "I wonder what happened to them?"
Shen Mo didn't answer immediately, but looked down at the cup of tea in his hand. After a while, he raised his head and said, "They were killed."
His tone turned out to be very calm.
Although they had already learned that Fu and Tie had been killed midway, Qi Cheng and Shi Huang were still able to hide it very well. They both showed extremely surprised expressions, and Qi Cheng even shouted exaggeratedly. , took two steps back and said urgently: "Killed? How could this happen?"
He looked at the expressions of the two people silently, his heart as calm as water.
"How could my two good friends be killed because they were so powerful in martial arts?" Qi Cheng was shocked. He stared at Silence and asked, "Little brother, do you know who killed them?"
Shen Mo shook his head and said: "I don't know. Before they were killed, the old man named Fu asked me to come and report the news. I asked the staff to be careful. I'm afraid someone will come here to cause trouble for you in the next few days."
Qi Cheng groaned and frowned repeatedly.
Silently said suddenly: "The member of the Communist Party of China just said that something happened to your family today. Could it be...?"
Qi Cheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, it's my birthday today, but I didn't expect that a group of gangsters who had had a problem with me would come to provoke me. Although I have driven them away, I don't know if they They will come again to take revenge, so I dismissed a group of relatives and friends to prevent them from suffering unnecessary disasters. Just now, I asked my little brother to leave as soon as possible, which is why I asked him to leave as soon as possible."
He suddenly pretended to be surprised and asked anxiously: "Could it be that those who killed my two friends were also those gangsters?"
"I don't know about this."
He pondered in silence for a moment, and then said: "No wonder the next time I walked in, I found that this place was so deserted. Although I have never seen Yan Yuanwai before, I have heard of Yuanwai's reputation for a long time. I must have used Yuanwai's martial arts to deal with several gangsters. It will definitely be easy for people like you."
Qi Cheng gave a wry smile and said casually: "What little fame I have is all brought out by my friends in the world. It's really not worth mentioning."
"Yuan Yuanwai Xia has a reputation far and wide, and is respected by people in this place outside the customs, so when dealing with a few bandits, it shouldn't be possible to drive them all out, right?"
Silence suddenly spoke unexpected words.
Qi Cheng didn't know why the other party asked this question, but in order not to reveal any flaws, he could only answer: "That's natural. Although they are seeking revenge with hatred, today is my sixtieth birthday, and it is really not appropriate to see blood and hurt others. So. I just sent them away."
"Yuan Wai Zhai has a kind heart, no wonder he is known as the number one person in the northwest martial arts world." Shen Mo shook his head and sighed, and suddenly said: "Since Yuan Wai has not killed anyone, why does this place have such a strong smell of blood?"
Qi Cheng and Shi Huang were startled when they heard this. Before they could react, Shen Shen suddenly appeared, using his palm as a sword, he struck Qi Cheng head-on with one blow.
Although Qi Cheng is old, he has been with Yan Shouyang for decades, and he is also a man with martial arts skills, but he rarely takes action. Because in the years when Yan Shouyang was in charge of Sunset Racecourse, even if he encountered trouble, There is no need for his butler to take action.
Therefore, as a person with martial arts skills, his intuition and acuity are much higher than ordinary people. When he heard Shen Mo's words, Qi Cheng was suddenly alert, but when he was really on guard, he saw the majestic figure. The man's head was already struck by a palm strike.
When Silence took action, there was no sign at all, it was just a sudden movement of his mind. And the sharpness carried by the fleshy palm was almost the same as a real sword.
Shi Huang was also shocked at the side. She really didn't expect that this strange man would have such advanced skills.
Qi Cheng yelled, unable to resist for a moment, so he had to dodge to the side with all his strength, and just barely managed to avoid the sudden slap of the sword, but his expression was full of embarrassment.
But Shen Mo's palm strike did not take advantage of the situation to pursue him. His broad, calloused palm stayed motionless where Qi Cheng was standing just like a knife.
Shi Huang stepped back several feet, his face turned pale and his eyes cold.
He stood casually in silence, still holding the cup of tea in his hand, but not a drop of the tea in the cup spilled.
"You are indeed not Yan Shooyang." Shen Mo looked at Qi Cheng with a shocked expression, raised his eyebrows, and said coldly.
"What did you say?" Qi Cheng looked guarded and solemn, and he said coldly: "Why do you think I am not Yan Shooyang?"
Momo retracted his palm and said coldly: "If you are really Yan Shooyang, then with your martial arts, you will never be able to catch such a simple move from me."
Qi Cheng's heart sank. His martial arts was indeed not on the same level as Yan Shooyang's. He suddenly regretted that he had not refined his martial arts skills over the years.
Shen Mo suddenly raised the tea cup in his hand to his lips, and slowly spit out a sip of water under the surprised expressions of the two of them.
That was actually the sip of tea he just drank. It turned out that he didn't drink it in his stomach.
Qi Cheng and Shi Huang's expressions have darkened. They already feel that the person who came today is not a simple person.
"If you are really Yan Shouyang, who is known as a chivalrous man, how come you poisoned this cup of tea?" Shen Mo's face turned frosty: "I drink any kind of tea, but I don't drink poisonous tea."
As soon as he let go of his hand, the cup of tea fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. At the same time, the tea splashed everywhere and foam appeared on the ground.
This tea is indeed poisonous.
Shi Huang's expression suddenly changed, because she had accidentally administered the poison, and she was very skillful in poisoning. Yan Shouyang was poisoned by the poison she put on that piece of clothing, and his martial arts skills were greatly reduced in an instant.
The poison given by Shihuang is also quite strange. It is colorless and odorless and is almost the same as water. Even if Yan Shouyang is as skilled in martial arts, Yan Shouyang is not aware of it except that he does not expect that his family will poison him. But Silence actually already knew that the tea was poisonous.
In addition to being bold and careful, it seems that this man has noticed something strange from the moment he walked in.
It is impossible for such a person to have no origins.
Silence stood proudly, he looked at the two of them coldly, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Is Chongyuan here?"
He is just like that knife, everything is simple and direct.
"Who are you?" Shi Huang did not expect that this strange man who claimed to be silent would know Chong Yuan's name. Her expression suddenly changed and she blurted out: "How do you know the name of Wang Shou?"
"King's head?" Shen Mo's heart moved, and he instantly remembered the situation when he fell down the makan, and suddenly understood the situation in front of him. He sneered and said: "You are indeed members of the Demon Sect. From this point of view, the real Yan Shooyang is Wasn't he already killed by you?"
"Who are you from Yan Shouyang?" Shi Huang's beautiful eyes were filled with fierce expressions. She stared closely at the silent face and said in a deep voice: "He seems to have never had a friend like you."
Hearing the words in silence, his expression changed. He realized that things were not that simple, because the words of these two people clearly meant that they were very familiar with Yan Shouyang.
Qi Cheng suddenly remembered something, and he asked tentatively: "Are you the one who delivered the medicine to me?"
Even though his heart was tense, he still couldn't change the name he called Yan Shouyang. After listening to the silence, he suddenly understood something in his heart. But he was not clear about Qi Cheng's problem. So he shook his head and said: "I and Yan Shouyang I have never met each other, and I don’t know who the person you mentioned who delivered the medicine is. But I already know one thing..." His cold eyes swept across the faces of the two people again, and he said in a deep voice: "You guys He must be a member of the Yan family, but he is not really a member of the Yan family, so Yan Shouyang died so quickly."
Although his last words were a bit strange, he did guess the truth.
Then Silence added: "Because only people who are very familiar with him will know his situation. It is also because of people who are very familiar with him that he will not be defensive."
Drawing inferences from one instance, careful thinking, clear logic, and silence, these simple words made Shi Huang and Qi Cheng involuntarily startled again.
This stranger, who had only been in the house for a short time, was able to deduce what had happened here from just a few words of conversation. How could such skill and such a sensitive mind not be surprising?
Seeing that there was no need to pretend anymore, Shi Huang's eyes suddenly revealed murderous intent, and she sneered: "So what if your guess is right? Are you trying to stand up for Yan Shooyang?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the man in white in the lobby and the four people at the door took their respective positions, blocking the silent retreat.
At the same time, there was a burst of intensive footsteps inside and outside the lobby. In the blink of an eye, the entire lobby was surrounded by more than a dozen people in white.
The faces of the people in white were gloomy and murderous, and they all held bright and sharp swords in their hands.
Their swords are different from the swords used in the martial arts of the Central Plains. The swords are like crescent moons, and the swords are narrower, longer and sharper. At first glance, they are not ordinary Middle-earth weapons.
Nearly twenty people in white clothes gathered together, forming an almost flawless encirclement, trapping Silence in the middle. The strong murderous aura emanating from their bodies actually made the temperature in the entire lobby instantly become even colder.
Silence didn't turn around, he knew just by feeling that these people were all extraordinary murderers.
"Killing Yan Shouyang won't have such a strong smell of blood, even though you have cleaned it up very well." Shen Mo remained motionless surrounded by swords. He looked at Shi Huang calmly and said: "Look at this. With your posture, you have probably killed everyone in the Yan family, right?"
Shi Huang snorted coldly: "Yan Shouyang is the enemy of my saint. He deserves to die, so the entire Yan family has been buried with him."
There was no expression on his face when he said this.
Shen Mo breathed out slowly, and then said in a deep voice: "You are indeed the same as Chong Yuan, evil heretics who kill without blinking an eye! Where is Chong Yuan now, and why don't you see him?"
Shi Huang was secretly puzzled. She didn't know what happened between Shen Mo and Chong Yuan. If the man in front of her was Chong Yuan's enemy, then this person would be extraordinary. Although he had left the Western Region for many years, Chong Yuan's ability She knew his personality very well. In the Western Region, there were almost no people who had been enemies with him over the years, because anyone who dared to challenge him would only be tortured and killed by him. But if this man is Chong Yuan's enemy now, he has not been killed. If Chong Yuan is eliminated, there is only one possibility, that is, this person's martial arts will definitely not be worse than Chong Yuan's, and may even be between the two of them.
Chong Yuan's strange cultivation makes him invincible in the entire Holy Tradition except for the leader Yue Wuque. If even he can't kill someone in one fell swoop, then one can imagine the level of this person's martial arts.
Taking this into consideration, Shi Huang couldn't help but feel a little more cautious. The order Yue Wuque gave her before leaving was to kill all the people who might come to Yan's house to avenge Yan Shouyang. But right now, this person doesn't seem to be a person who can A character that people can easily kill.
Shi Huang's mind was racing. She still wanted to find out where the other party came from. The more she understood the enemy, the more confident she would be in taking action. So she also said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Find the king. What's the matter?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. It doesn't matter whether Chongyuan is the head of the king or something else." Shen Mo said with a heavy tone, "What matters is that I am the one who came to kill him."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
A group of white-clothed warriors were even more astonished. There were actually people in this world who wanted to kill Chong Yuan! They wanted to kill Chong Yuan, the leader of the Sacred King who was so high up in the Western Territory that his cultivation was like a secret demon.
After being surprised, everyone couldn't help but sneer, because this was indeed the least funny joke they had ever heard.
Chongyuan's status in the Western Region, within the Holy Mission, and in the minds of countless believers is already comparable to that of the leader. He is almost invincible and almost omnipotent.
For such a person, a person whom no one knows actually wants to kill him.
If he wasn't a madman, how could he say such a thing?
But Silence is not a madman.
After Shi Huang was startled, she couldn't help but show a bit of contempt. She knew that the man in front of her was not an ordinary person, but to say that he wanted to kill Chong Yuan was simply a joke, and the joke was not that way.
"You ignorant person, you have such an arrogant tone!" Shi Huang sneered: "Did you know that you would lose your life because of these words?"
Silent and unmoved, with a calm expression, he said calmly: "Chong Yuan, who practices the Forbidden God Dharma and the Heretical Array, said similar things not long ago, but in the end he ran away."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.
When Shi Huang heard this, her face suddenly froze. She couldn't believe that Shen Mo could actually tell the name of the technique practiced by Chong Yuan.
She was stunned for a moment. Although she couldn't believe it, she still felt an inexplicable tremor in her heart, because she could tell from the silent words that he and Chong Yuan had indeed met and had a fight.
If the two of them had not taken action, then Shen Sheng would not have known Chong Yuan's martial arts skills. But what surprised Shi Huang even more was that Chong Yuan did not kill him, which was very inconsistent with Wang Shou's character.
