Chapter 169: The Thin Monkey’s Blood Splattered in the Desolate House
Watching the thin monkey dripping with blood, the dazzling scarlet color suddenly poured out from the corner of his mouth and dripped on the ground, leaving mottled marks. The thin monkey saw through the reflection of the blood droplets, and in his mind In the blur, he seemed to see his own shadow. That ridiculous face could not escape God's arrangement after all. Such a miserable life ended early. And the red-haired ghost Liu Tang, who was three steps away, was looking at another mouthful of blood at this moment. The corners of the thin monkey's lips gushed out, and it was obvious that he was not going to live long.
This thin monkey can't die. Once he dies, the red-haired ghost Liu Tang loses too much information that he should know, especially since the thin monkey is about to tell him the ins and outs of their overall plan. Bit by bit, the thin monkey has no idea about himself. It is useful, and it has even more unclear use value for his master. Therefore, the thin monkey must not die.
Liu Tang felt anxious, and quickly ran over with two steps, stepped on the side of the thin monkey, shouted, "Drink, you can't die," and at this moment, the capable man will The willow-leaf machete was pulled out with a wisp of blood, and he also shouted: "If you don't die, are you going to confess to my master?" As he said, he wanted to add another knife. Liu Tang didn't dare to be careless this time, but he held it in his hand. After all, it was not a weapon made of mixed iron, but an ordinary torch with a wooden handle. Even if he wanted to do it for the thin monkey, the sword was beyond his power at the moment. Instead of using the wooden handle to clash with the blade, it would be a drop in the bucket. Well, it's better to use another clever method.
What a clever trick. Liu Tang looked closely at the lower body of his lean back body and saw that he was about to move his right foot forward when the sword fell. So he calculated the forward position of his body and did not move. To intercept his blade, he just used his whole life's strength to hit the capable young man in the face with a lightning bolt. This method is called "surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao" in the art of war, but in the art of war, In the world of martial arts, it is called "pulling the back of the shirt." The original meaning was that when he was about to punch, someone grabbed the shirt from behind, preventing him from moving out. Naturally, the punch lost its original power. , but this move has gradually gained new development and meaning as the world has become more advanced.
The capable man naturally knew the move at the moment, but Liu Tang made the move very quickly, and the man he killed was in a hurry. Seeing the burning stick being swung towards his face, the capable man could not take this step no matter what. Of course, the sword couldn't make up for it. The capable man's reaction was quite fast. He stopped his footwork in mid-air, touched the ground with his right foot halfway, and then swept him backwards with the "Swallow Triple Water" move.
Unexpectedly, Liu Tang's move in front of him also changed in the air, from swinging to slashing, and immediately moved towards the waist of the capable man. This move was something the capable man did not expect. The torch was in Liu Tang's hand. Not only did Li become as dazzling as a flying fire meteor, but his moves were even more unpredictable. He would kill with one move and then start with the next move. The moves were continuous. When the capable man saw Liu Tang being so fierce, He secretly praised in his heart that he was really a red-haired ghost. While the capable man was struggling to deal with Liu Tang, he showed a satisfied smile, and the sharp corners of his mouth evoked a strong sense of happiness.
Liu Tang saw this in his eyes. Although he felt strange in his heart, what was even more strange was that he had not calmed down in his heart and did not care about his changes at the moment. Regardless of the words he just roared angrily, "If you don't die, will you confess to my master?" "Who is this master referring to? Let's just say that he suddenly attacked Shouhou from behind when Shouhou was about to explain, and then killed Shouhou. This series of actions shocked Liu Tang and made him even more angry. , "Eating the emperor's salary is a matter of loyalty to the emperor." But why this capable man turned his back and did what he did, Liu Tang couldn't figure it out at once, but this kind of behavior cannot be forgiven.
Liu Tang felt angry in his heart and ignored the unusual smile of the capable man. He directly drew a circle of brilliant fire with the force of "raising fire to set fire to the sky". Although the torch did not reach his body, the light of the torch was like The sharp arrow immediately pierced deeply into the capable man's eyes. This dazzling noise made his vision temporarily pale, but in this moment of paleness, Liu Tang had already kicked him hard. The man was kicked out.
The capable man felt a sudden pain in his abdomen, and he couldn't help but smash the half-broken door and flew out of the house. Fortunately, he was a practitioner, and after more than ten years in the world, he was not something ordinary people could handle. No wonder, the capable man endured the turmoil in his stomach. When he landed, he touched the ground with his palms, raised his arms and then immediately stabilized himself, rebounded and left the place. , then without saying a word, he stepped on the nearby deserted corner and climbed over the low wall with one ups and downs.
When Liu Tang saw that the capable man had escaped with injuries, he immediately screamed and chased him out with all his strength. However, when he also jumped onto the low wall, he looked at the dark streets scattered around. There was still a figure somewhere. Liu Tang took a strong breath towards the wall and cursed: "Fuck the bird thief, you greased the soles of your shoes and you slipped so fast." Liu Tang felt quite unwilling and then Looking at the empty street, he turned around angrily and jumped back into the courtyard. He took two quick steps and returned to the dilapidated house.
Liu Tang took a torch and shined a light on it, and saw the thin monkey's head lying heavy on the side. It was obvious that he had expired and was dead.
"Damn it," Liu Tang was furious in his heart. When he was angry, he suddenly threw the torch in his hand to the ground, causing sparks to fly. Liu Tang walked to the skinny monkey again, and his heart was clear. Seemingly unwilling to give up, he put his hand on the thin monkey's nose. There was no breath, and it was dead. Liu Tang felt lucky, and he reached out and grabbed the thin monkey's wrist. His pulse number 1 was as calm as night, and there was no pulse. , utterly dead.
Liu Tang gave up now. He stood up and scolded the capable man a thousand times in his heart, but he couldn't get rid of his anger. Instead, he became more and more angry as he thought about it. He went crazy and kicked the skinny monkey's body violently. After a few kicks, Liu Tang calmed down a little. Now that the thin monkey could not be resurrected, but the capable man escaped again, how to explain to the master now, and where to start the investigation of this task, Liu Tang was thinking a little hard. He felt lost for a moment and sat down on the spot. His frustrated eyes involuntarily fell on the torch he had just thrown on the ground. The torch lay quietly on the ground and burned along the side of the stick.
And on the floor tile illuminated by the torch, in addition to the blood flowing from the thin monkey and the footprints left on the dust by Liu Tang and the capable man fighting, there was now a wooden waist badge.
Liu Tang had sharp eyes. As soon as he saw this thing, he immediately picked it up in his hand. He looked closer to the fire and saw that the wooden waist tag in his hand was the same as the one Shouhou showed him before, but the words on it were different. It was different. Liu Tang took a closer look and immediately understood in his heart. The waist badge clearly belonged to the officers and soldiers under the chief of Guanxi Town. So, the capable man just now must be the chief's subordinate. But, how could this man? Will he get into Li Gu's employ? Could it be that this kid had bad intentions from the beginning and was working as a cheat under his master Li Gu.
When Liu Tang thought about this, he seemed to understand a little bit. The elder must have been wary when he saw Li Gu recruiting people from all over the world, so he sent someone to sneak in specifically to find out the news, and the capable man just now This is one of them. However, I don’t know how many such undercover agents there are and who the others are. This is a motley crew of gangsters. When they surrendered to their master, they were probably just like themselves. They only informed their names and whereabouts, and the rest were The fundamentals were not explained very clearly.
While Liu Tang was thinking about it, he glanced at the thin monkey who was dead on the side. His brain roared, and he recalled what the thin monkey said: "We are not from Shaohua Mountain, and that big man with beards is not Shi Jin. To put it bluntly, we are not from Shaohua Mountain." , we are all officers and soldiers,”
"To put it bluntly," How to put it plainly? Listening to this tone, they are now considered officers and soldiers, and they are not considered officers and soldiers. So what is going on? Where did Shouhou and this group of people come from? How can they do it? He was regarded as a person who was neither an official nor an official. Before Liu Tang could finish this thought, the look of a capable man appeared in his heart again, and he couldn't help but think of his words, "If you don't die, will you confess to my master?".
Ah, the red-haired ghost Liu Tang was suddenly shocked. Could it be that the elder had deliberately arranged it? Otherwise, how could there be complete armors and badges of officers and soldiers? The more Liu Tang thought about it, the more he felt that everything was connected. He felt vaguely uneasy. Although he couldn't explain why, the feeling was very strong.
Now the bearded man is still drinking with Li Gu. They are all from the elder's side. If the elder leads his troops to surround Yue Mianwu and arrest Li Gu in the name of a traitor, if the method is more ruthless, he will Li Gu was killed directly in the dim light of the moon, and when reported to the court, he was accused of collaborating with the enemy and stubbornly resisting. What's more, the man with the big cheeks confessed and gave false testimony. In this way, the Li family would definitely fall into disgrace.
The red-haired ghost was a little scared. How did he figure out this trick? It would have been great if the skinny monkey was alive. What a pity. Ah, I understand. This is why the capable man wanted to kill the skinny monkey. He was The person who planned to attack Shouhou deliberately pestered Liu Tang to fight, and then when Liu Tang's attention was distracted from Shouhou, he killed Shouhou in one fell swoop. This was not just to let Shouhou leak the plan. , and more importantly, to avoid future troubles, regardless of the success or failure of this plan, the elder can be kept out of the matter, and he can still call himself brother and brother in front of Li Gu with a smiling face.
When Liu Tang thought of the elder's ugly face, he felt sick in his heart. However, it was a pity that although Li Gu knew what he was doing, he was very polite to him. No matter what the elder was behind his back, Liu Tang would always treat Li Gu Li Gu smiled and said nothing about the report.
When Liu Tang thought of this, he felt unspeakably aggrieved. However, the current situation was urgent and he needed to rush to Yue Mengyu. Even if the officers and soldiers wanted to arrest someone, it would be a big deal to risk his life.
