Chapter 52 Chapter Fifty-second

After revealing the secret that Happy Zhang had visited Mou’s house to investigate, Jin Zhuliu said slowly: “Connecting this series of bizarre incidents, I can’t help wondering whether these incidents are related? So Although the Kongtong faction is raging and believes that Dan Qiusheng is a traitor and a murderer, and Dan Qiusheng has nothing to say, I still believe that he is innocent. On the other hand, for eighteen years, Happy Zhang has also continued to investigate this matter. It is a pity that I have exhausted a lot of effort and have not been able to clear the fog. However, although the truth has not yet been revealed, more and more clues have been discovered, which can prove that my inference that Dan Qiusheng is innocent can be established. Well, That's why I didn't avoid the suspicion of being 'Ah Qi's favourite', and I decided to stand in favor of Dan Qiusheng." The last few words were directed at Dong Zhen and Dong Ming.Dong Zhenzi, who is the head of the Kongtong School, couldn't help but blushed.

Besides being ashamed and embarrassing, Dong Mingzi also has more doubts and fears than his senior brother. Jin Zhuliu has revealed that in the past 18 years, Happy Zhang has continued to investigate this matter, and has discovered "more and more clues "of.What did he know?Is it what Jihong testified, or is there another new discovery?Mou Lizhu's testimony has not involved him so far, so will it involve him? Lei Zhenzi seemed to have noticed Dong Mingzi's restless expression, and said with deep meaning: "Oh, I really never dreamed that the Taoist priest Dongxuan of your sect was a spy who colluded with the Qing court and murdered his colleagues. I hope I won't pay you back." There is something even more unexpected to me, Ms. Mou, given the danger you were in at that time, it was really difficult for you to deal with it. Please continue."

Mou Lizhu continued: "Oh, it's also my fault that my father was so deluded by that bitch, he had a chance to read this letter, but because of believing in this bitch, he made loyal Mama Liu accept him instead. Scolding, I dare not hand over this letter." It turned out that after Mama Liu got the letter, she finally found a chance for Mou and his party to be alone in the study, and went to see him pregnant with the letter.She is illiterate, so she doesn't know what was written in the letter. Firstly, she is afraid that she guessed wrongly. Secondly, she took the letter privately. to blame.So she tested the master's tone first, and told the story that someone came to deliver a letter to Han Ziyan yesterday, and she laughed very strangely after hearing the mistress read the letter.She asked the master if he had read the letter, and suggested that if someone sent a letter in the future, would it be more appropriate for the porter to accept it and open it for the master to read first?

Unexpectedly, Mou and his party laughed out loud after hearing what he said, saying that she was insane.After laughing, his face suddenly turned serious, and he scolded Mama Liu: "If it weren't for the fact that you are the nanny of the old mistress, you dare to be suspicious of the new mistress, I would have fired you a long time ago." Mou Lizhu continued: "Poor Mama Liu was so loyal, but she was scolded by my father, she was so scared that she dared not take out this letter. She also thought about putting the letter back quietly, but luckily she didn't do that. He decided to hide it for me to see. Alas, I didn’t expect that in just two days, my father would suffer a catastrophe as soon as he came home. Liu Ma didn’t have a chance to tell me alone, but I went to find her first.

"I read this letter, and it was really worse. I didn't know how to deal with it. I discussed with Liu's mother. Although she was illiterate, she was much more knowledgeable than me when thinking about things. She said: Miss, you must not disclose Show the slightest expression of hatred for that bitch, if she forces you to go through the door, you will follow the plan and go to He's house first. "I was surprised and angry at the same time, and said: How can I marry into an enemy's family? Liu Ma said: Who told you to marry an enemy? It's hard to deal with her. No matter how well you hide it, I'm afraid she will be suspicious of you to some extent. If she sends you off to marry and you refuse to obey her orders, she will immediately guess that you already know her secret, and you can still treat her Are you not going to kill me?

"I thought about it suddenly, and said: Yes, I can pretend to be obedient, get rid of that bitch first, and escape halfway. Liu Ma said: "It doesn't necessarily need to escape. I heard your father talk about it, saying that it is from the Kongtong sect." Master Dongmiao is an upright person, and he is willing to betroth you to the Kongtong sect just out of respect for him. When you arrive at Kongtong Mountain, you can appeal to him to expose the conspiracy of his junior brother. I said, as long as Fearing that Master Dongmiao would not believe what I said. Mama Liu said: "You can act accordingly, but even if this plan doesn't work, you still have a plan to delay your attack. Although I haven't read the book, I know how to treat others with books. The funeral of parents requires three years of filial piety. If you use filial piety as an excuse, the He family will never force you to get married. Mama Liu gave me such careful consideration, and I decided to follow her advice.

"As expected, after the funeral, Han Ziyan urged the He family to welcome the bride. This was originally Dongxuanzi's plan, and of course there was an answer soon. He Luo and his companion will come to pick us up on a date, but Well, it’s just a first-hand wedding so that the He family can take care of me, an orphan girl who has lost both parents. After we get through the door, we will choose auspicious marriages. Their words are extremely high-sounding, so that relatives and friends are grateful to his family and me. 'virtuous' evening lady. "I made up my mind. Although there are several possible paths, I decided to run away halfway and gave up my plan to go to Kongtong Mountain to appeal to Dongmiao Immortal. I hate my family so much. Very disgusting.

"While Wan Niang and I were making our own plans and waiting for He Luo to welcome us, another incident happened. This incident began to involve Dan Qiusheng!" The truth was revealed gradually, at this time almost everyone believed that Dan Qiusheng was framed.But what Dan Qiusheng did in this case is still unknown to everyone.So when the heroine in the case started to talk about Dan Qiusheng, everyone paid extra attention, hoping to find the answer to why Dan Qiusheng didn't defend herself. Mou Lizhu took a break, and continued: "Three days before the He family made an appointment to come to welcome the bride, the person who came to my house to deliver the letter came again. But this time he failed to see Han Ziyan, that bitch. Before stepping into my house, Liu Ma was caught wisely.

"Liu's mother is wholeheartedly for me. I'm afraid the He family has arranged some conspiracy to deceive me. Therefore, in the days before the wedding, she was waiting at a mountain pass on the way my house must pass. She was waiting for this opportunity. She was the person sent by Dong Xuanzi to deliver the letter. Her concerns were indeed not random guesses, and that day finally came to her. "Liu Ma went up to meet him and said, "I was sent by the mistress to pick you up. Last time you came to my house, the missus had aroused suspicion. It is inconvenient for her to see you at home. I know you are not from her natal family, you are Dong Xuanzi." Sent. Right?

"The man was puzzled, and said, "Has the mistress told you?" Liu Ma said with a smile: "Of course, if the mistress hadn't told me, how would I know your identity? The mistress ordered you to hand over the letter to me." give her. "The man was dubious, and questioned Liu Ma about the relationship between Han Ziyan and Han Ziyan. Liu Ma knew that if she talked too much, she would reveal her flaws, and immediately cut through the mess, and said, "You don't have to ask any more questions, and I have no time to talk to you. If you If you still don't believe me, I can tell you a little more secret." After revealing the secret of that letter, the man couldn't help but believe it.

"The man said quietly, this time I brought a message, it must be absolutely secret and must not be known by others. So Liu Ma took him to the pine forest behind the mountain, and the man began to tell Liu Ma with confidence. "It turns out that although Dongxuan and his son have secretly invited a murderer to assassinate Dan Qiusheng on the way, they may not succeed, so they want to ask Han Ziyan for help. "In order to avoid suspicion, Han Ziyan's original plan was to return me to her mother's house under the pretext of sending me off for marriage. After a period of time, she would stay and fly with Dongxuanzi. But Dongxuanzi disagreed with this plan. He wanted Han Ziyan to marry me later. As a mother, she sent her daughter to her husband's house. In case Dan Qiusheng couldn't be killed, she could still poison her! It is expected that Dan Qiusheng would not be wary of her. "Liu Ma was stunned for a while after hearing these words, and asked: Why did you have to kill Dan Qiusheng? The man seemed a little surprised, and said: Don't you know? Fortunately, he hasn't realized that Liu Ma lied to him, and finally he still Speak up." Although everyone had vaguely guessed the secret, but when it was told by the bride of the year, everyone still couldn't help but be thrilled to hear it. Mou Lizhu continued to say: "The man didn't expect that Liu Ma lied to him, after hesitating for a while, he finally told her. "The man said: Since you know why your mistress wanted to kill Mou Xing, you should know why Dong Xuanzi and his son wanted to kill Dan Qiusheng. "Mother Liu was taken aback, and asked: Did Dan Qiusheng secretly join the Rebel Army as well? "The man said: We don't know whether he has already joined. But we already know that he has many friends in the rebel army. If he becomes the head of the Kongtong faction, even if he will not openly resist the court, he is determined to fight against the court. Unfavorable. You should know that He Luo and Dan Qiusheng are known as the Kongtong Shuangxiu. If the next head of the Kongtong Sect falls on Dan Qiusheng, it will definitely fall on He Luo. If you don’t get rid of Dan Qiusheng, How can He Luo feel at ease? "Liu Ma insisted and asked again: What will happen if He Luo becomes the head of the sect? "The man seemed to laugh at Mama Liu's stupid question, and said: It's worth asking, of course he is working secretly for the imperial court. "Mama Liu asked again: You just said that He Luo has hired helpers, who did he invite? "The man said: Why do you want to know this secret? "Mama Liu said: I am asking for the mistress. If the helper is strong, she can rest assured. If she fails to poison, and has a strong helper, then she can still restrain Dan Qiusheng. Otherwise I'm really worried that the mistress will be hurt by Dan Qiusheng's sword. I have heard that Dan Qiusheng's swordsmanship is one of the best in the Kongtong School! "The man seemed to believe that Madam Liu was loyal to the mistress, so he said: The three people I know, one is Ji Hong, a famous one-legged thief in the world, and two... He lowered his voice and said, "It's the Imperial Forest Army." master. "Mama Liu asked again: Who are those two masters of the Royal Forest Army? "The man refused to answer this question. It may be because Mama Liu asked too many questions, so he suddenly became suspicious and said: Having these three people as helpers is enough to make your mistress feel at ease. Why do you Want to know in such detail? "Mother Liu knew that he wouldn't say any more, so she laughed and said: I'm not worried about that bitch, I'm worried about the young lady. Well, thank you for telling me so much, I, I can... "Before she finished speaking, the man jumped up in fright and shouted: So you, you are a spy! Immediately drew his sword to kill Liu Ma. "According to Mama Liu, that man can master the Kongtong sect's chain-killing swordsmanship, and his attainments in swordsmanship are quite good. It is expected that he is Dongxuanzi's proud disciple. "However, even though he is Dong Xuanzi's proud disciple, after all, he is still not as good as Liu Ma's decades of skill. He failed to kill Liu Ma, but was killed by Liu Ma instead." Hearing what Mou Lizhu said up to this point, Dong Zhenzi and Dong Mingzi on the stage were shocked, and their faces turned strange.But because everyone in the audience was listening attentively to Mu Lizhu's narration, they didn't pay attention to their expressions. Dong Zhenzi, the current head of the Kongtong faction, thought to himself: "It turns out that Dazhi's disappearance is such a thing, but Junior Brother Dongming has been keeping it from me!" Dong Mingzi was four parts surprised and six parts happy, thinking to himself: "It turns out that Da Zhi was killed by an old nanny in the Mou family. Fortunately, they have not known the details of Da Zhi until now. .” It turned out that the person who sent the secret letter to Dong Xuanzi was named Hao Dazhi, but this Hao Dazhi was not Dong Xuanzi's disciple, but Dong Mingzi's lay disciple.Dong Mingzi valued him even more than his eldest disciple Daoist Dashi.At that time, Hao Dazhi had already completed his education and made his debut. He was a layman's disciple, so he didn't need to live in Qingxu Temple, but he would come here several times a year.He never came back, and Dong Mingzi already guessed that he was killed, but without any definite news, in the past eighteen years, he was unavoidably worried all the time, wondering if he fell into the other party's hands and kept him alive. Hearing that his proud disciple had long since died, Fang began to let go of the stone in his heart. After Mou Lizhu finished talking about the case, she sighed and said, "I will never be able to repay Mama Liu's loyalty to me and kindness to me! "I don't want to follow the time for the time being, but let me tell you in advance that Liu Ma sacrificed heroically for me. After Han Ziyan 'married' me, according to the original plan, she used the excuse of going back to her mother's house and dismissed all the servants at home. Only Mama Liu was left, and she must have been suspicious of Mama Liu for a long time and wanted to keep her for interrogation. "Liu's mother guessed and knew her intentions, but Liu's mother was unwilling to escape. In order to avenge my father, I had already escaped from the tiger's mouth, and I fought against that bitch desperately. That bitch was killed. After the incident, I quietly went back to my hometown and found out about it. Poor Mother Liu has no bones left for me. I wanted to find that bitch to avenge her, but I couldn't find it!" Hearing this, everyone couldn't help sighing for this loyal servant, only Dong Mingzi felt more at ease and secretly complacent. Lei Zhenzi waited for everyone to sigh, and said: "Miss Mou, please get back to the topic. What happened next?" Mou Lizhu continued: "Mother Liu came back that night and told me that they arranged to kill Dan Qiusheng, and only then did I further understand their plot. "At first I didn't know if He Luo was conspiring with his father, but now I know that He Luo's heart is vicious, and he is really not inferior to his father. Their father and son conspired not only to kill our father and daughter, but also to murder their own father. Pie Dan Qiusheng! "My original plan was to escape midway. After knowing their plot, I had to give up this plan. I must find an opportunity on the way to tell Dan Qiusheng their plot, and I can't just run away by myself! "But I couldn't find this opportunity. He Luo and Dan Qiusheng were inseparable along the way, and I was He Luo's fiancée, how could I ignore the suspicion and go out to talk to Dan Qiusheng alone? "Days go by day after day. I have been away for three days and I haven't talked to Dan Qiusheng yet. Those robbers that He Luo colluded with may come every day to murder Dan Qiusheng. What should I do? Woolen cloth? "On the third day, we went to an ancient temple to rest. It was not too late that day, and He Luo made an excuse that we might not be able to find the head of the temple, and asked everyone to rest early. "I don't feel suspicious. Could it be that they just agreed to do it tonight? I made up my mind, no matter what, I must lure Dan Qiusheng away tonight! "At about three o'clock, I quietly got up and peeped out of the window of the room where they lived together. I saw Dan Qiusheng was not asleep yet, facing the dry lamp alone, and Zhi Yi was sitting silently, as if thinking about something. He Luo was already snoring. I was secretly happy, this is a good opportunity. So I gently tore open the window paper. "Unexpectedly, at this moment, He Luo and Dan Qiusheng jumped up at the same time, shouting: 'Who is it?' I suddenly realized that He Luo was pretending to be asleep. He had an appointment with the murderer, how could he sleep peacefully. "Fortunately, I had already thought of the second method, and I immediately said in a low voice: 'I can hear the voices of people walking in the night, please hurry up and help me chase the thieves!' "He Luo snorted and said: Why can't I hear you? Hey, come back first, don't chase after me! "At that time, I didn't know that he had invited Ji Hong to kidnap me, and he had to keep me in the temple so that he would have the chance to be the hero who rescued his wife. "Sure enough, He Luo ran out to chase me in a hurry, and Dan Qiusheng came out with him. I played tricks, quickened my pace, and shouted: 'Okay, what a brave little thief, how dare you hit me with a hidden weapon! You must be caught. I can't hold you!' "I know that Dan Qiusheng's lightness skill is superior to that of He Luo. He thought I was injured by a hidden weapon, so he would definitely run to save me first. At this time, the distance between me and them is at least a hundred steps away. They couldn't see clearly what was going on ahead, and even He Luo couldn't think that I was cheating. He chased and shouted, are you injured? Come back quickly if you are injured! "Sure enough, as I expected, Dan Qiusheng caught up with me first!" Speaking of this, the scene of that night is as vivid as it is now, Mou Lizhu's face, which was originally as cold as ice, unknowingly showed a touch of blush. Dan Qiusheng swept over like the wind.I caught up with her, got close to her! She runs fast, her heart beats faster. Although they had been together for three days, she was riding in a carriage on the road, and only when she got on and off the carriage did she see Dan Qiusheng.And Dan Qiusheng is always inseparable from He Luo.Because she hated He Luo, she didn't want to cast her eyes on them.Secondly, it was also to avoid suspicion, so even though they walked together for three days, she never "faced up" to Dan Qiusheng. For the first time, she saw Dan Qiusheng's face clearly.Ah, it turns out that Dan Qiusheng is such a handsome and capable young man. It was also the first time she was alone with a "strange" man. This man, her father intended to betroth her to him.Alas, I only hate the wrong marriage. If her father had insisted on his original intention, her fate in this life might have been very different! But at this moment, her heartbeat and blushing are not because of the fledgling love that she has not yet felt, but because of her current status, and she doesn't know how to speak to Dan Qiusheng. There were fifteen buckets in her heart, she was up and down, and her steps didn't feel that she was stepping up and down, and suddenly staggered and almost fell.It looked more like an injury. Dan Qiusheng hurriedly supported her and asked, "Miss Mou, what's the matter with you? Are you injured?" "I'm not hurt, I lied to you!" Mou Lizhu said in a low voice.Dan Qiusheng was taken aback for a moment, and looked at her with wide eyes, almost unable to believe his ears. "Don't ask me why? Hurry up and run with me again!" Dan Qiusheng hesitated, but stopped.Said: "Brother He is coming soon, why not wait for him?" Mou Lizhu stomped her feet anxiously, and didn't care about avoiding suspicion. She pulled his sleeve and said, "I just want to stay away for fear of being heard by him! Please believe me, run, run!" Dan Qiusheng seemed to suddenly remember something, this time he listened to her, ran for a while, and threw He Luo farther away, looking back, he couldn't see his shadow anymore. They ran through a valley, and Mou Lizhu estimated that there was enough time to clarify the matter before He Luo arrived, so she stopped. "He Luo is going to murder you, do you know?" Dan Qiusheng's shock was no small matter, and he said: "He Luo and I love each other like brothers, how could he murder me?" "He already killed my father, you still think he is a good person?" Mou Lizhu said. Dan Qiusheng was shocked and said: "He, isn't he your husband? Why, how could he murder his father-in-law?" Mou Lizhu gritted her teeth and said: "He is my enemy! He is also your enemy! Not only your enemy, but also the enemy of all chivalry." Dan Qiusheng regained his composure and said, "Miss Mou, what do you say?" Mu Lizhu was afraid that He Luo would come, so she could only briefly tell Dan Qiusheng some important facts. This happened so suddenly, it's not that Dan Qiusheng didn't believe Mou Lizhu.But if he were to immediately believe that He Luo and his father were spies, he still didn't dare.For a moment, he couldn't help but feel at a loss. "Dan Qiusheng, you have to make up your mind quickly. What do you want, you kill him for revenge, if you dare not kill him, then run away quickly! He has hired a very powerful helper, and he is coming to assassinate you! Maybe it's tonight!" Speaking of this, he suddenly noticed that Dan Qiusheng was staring into the distance, dazed, as if he didn't pay attention to what she said.Mou Lizhu stamped her feet anxiously and said, "The man made the decision with one word, what are you still thinking about?" Dan Qiusheng let out a "huh" and said, "Miss Mou, maybe you guessed right, I seem to have heard the sound of fighting in the direction of the ancient temple!" Mou Lizhu said: "It must be that the murderer he invited has already massacred there. Alas, it's a pity that I am powerless to save my old family members!" Dan Qiusheng thought to himself: "If those murderers didn't come from He Luoyue, I should go back and help He Luo save the servants of Mou's family." Suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Who are the helpers from He Luoyue?" ,do you know?" Mou Lizhu said: "I only know one is Ji Hong, a one-legged bandit who commits all kinds of crimes in the world, and the other two are said to be masters of the Imperial Forest Army." Dan Qiusheng Qu Ran was startled, and said, "Oh, there really is Ji Hong in there!" Mou Lizhu was very strange when he heard what he said, and thought to herself, could he also know about He Luo's bribe of Ji Hong, and just wanted to ask him, He Luo has come! He Luo called: "Miss Mou, are you injured?" Mou Lizhu didn't know what Dan Qiusheng was going to do, so she endured it for now and said, "Fortunately, I wasn't injured." He Luo said: "Then, we have to go back quickly. I have already discovered that there are enemies coming to that ancient temple." Mou Lizhu said: "Although I'm not injured, I can't walk anymore." He Luo pretended to be extremely anxious, and said, "Junior Brother Danqiu, your lightness kungfu is better than mine. You should rush back to save people first! Miss Mou, I will help you go back!" Dan Qiusheng was chivalrous and thought to himself: "Perhaps these bandits are here to rob Miss Mou of her dowry. How can I have the heart to let the family members of Mou's family be killed by robbers?" Sure enough, he rushed back immediately. After Dan Qiusheng left, He Luo smiled and said, "You guys have been here for a while, what did you talk about?" Mou Lizhu's heart trembled, and she pretended to be angry and said: "What do you mean, he came to help me catch the thief, and I was too tired, so how can I have any leisure time to chat?" He Luo smiled and said: "You are as beautiful as a flower, I am afraid that my good friend will snatch my sweet wife away. Hey, I'm just joking. Don't be annoyed!" Mou Lizhu said with a stern face: "The robbers have already been killed, but you still have time to joke around. I can't run fast, you should hurry back and help Dan Qiusheng save people." He Luo said: "How could I be willing to leave you here alone, well, if you really can't run, I will carry you back." Mou Lizhu shyly said: "No, no, don't do this!" He Luo smiled and said: "We are husband and wife, why are you so shy?" While speaking, he walked up to Mou Lizhu and stretched out his hand to hold her. Mou Lizhu jumped up suddenly, her left palm was like a knife, a "sword hand" cut He Luo's head, and her right palm pointed like a halberd, pointing at the Xuanji point on his chest. Using palm and finger at the same time is the unique skill of the Mou family, but He Luo was prepared for it, dodged it, and shouted: "Okay, it turns out that you are indeed Dan Qiusheng colluding to murder your husband!" It was too late, but it was too soon, Mou Lizhu missed a single blow, she drew out her sword abruptly, and shouted: "Dogs don't grow ivory in their mouths, tell you the truth, I want to avenge my father!" He Luo set aside Mou Lizhu's green steel sword.The face was ashen as a sword, and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about, what does your father's death have to do with me?" Mou Lizhu was not willing to talk to him, and shouted: "You should understand for yourself!" Seeing her eyes full of hatred, He Luo couldn't help feeling nervous: "Could it be that she, she already knows the secret between our father and son?" He Luo's swordsmanship was slightly better than Mou Lizhu's, but one was full of anger and vowed to avenge his father, and the other was guilty of a thief and had scruples. Under Mou Lizhu's round of violent attacks, He Luo had no choice but to parry portion. "You must have heard some rumors, tell me quickly, let me explain to you!" He Luo shouted.As he spoke, his sword moves were slightly slow, and there was only a "chi" sound, and a part of his clothes had been cut off.Seeing that the situation was not good, He Luo let out a long whistle.Mou Lizhu thought that he was calling out to his comrades, so he attacked more ruthlessly, but unfortunately, his skills were inferior after all, He Luo turned from attack to defense, and defended extremely steadily.consume her energy. After He Luo whistled, within a short while, two people really came. When Mou Lizhu saw that the two were wearing military uniforms, she thought to herself, "These two must be the two masters of the Imperial Forest Army invited by He Luo." She had already put life and death aside, regardless of whether he was a master or not, instead of escaping, she worked even harder.Gritting his silver teeth, he unleashed a sword technique that hurt both sides! The officer in front was very surprised, and said with a smile: "The young couple have something to say, what are you playing with?" The officer behind shouted: "No, it seems that you are not joking!" In fact, the officer in front of course knew that he was not "just joking". He deliberately used a relaxed tone, but he just wanted to relax Mou Lizhu's defense against him.There was only an "ouch", and He Luo was hit by a sword in his shoulder, bleeding profusely. At this moment, the officer in front took out a copper coin, flicked his two fingers, and struck a thin copper coin.He knocked down the long sword in Mou Lizhu's hand. The officer smiled and said, "Okay! You young couples are fighting, so I don't want to intervene anymore. Brother He, you can talk about it after you settle down with your wife." He only thought that Mou Lizhu had lost her weapon, and this fight would definitely be impossible to continue.Unexpectedly, Mou Lizhu rushed forward to wrestle He Luo regardless of life or death. The "pong" palm hit He Luo's injured shoulder again, causing He Luo's heart and lungs to hurt. He Luo said angrily: "You little bitch is so ruthless!" He reversed the hilt of the sword and hit it, and punched out at the same time.The hilt of the sword hit Mou Lizhu's heart, and her fist hit her lower abdomen.His strength was much stronger than that of Mou Lizhu, this blow immediately knocked Mou Lizhu to the ground, and she passed out in a moment. Indistinctly, the officer said: "Oh, Brother He, your attack is too harsh. Don't kill Mrs. Zun. Hurry up and see her before you talk." He Luo said bitterly: "It's fine to kill this little bitch." Another officer said with a smile: "Why do you have no heart to pity her, but you are willing to kill your beautiful wife?" Of course, he didn't really want He Luo to "pity her", but took a detour and asked He Luo. Reason. He Luo said: "You don't know, this little bitch already knows our secret, and now she regards me as an enemy who killed her father. Don't worry about her life and death, we still have to try to deal with Dan Qiusheng!" The officer in front said: "Okay, then we will lure Dan Qiusheng here immediately. You were injured by us for pretending to be your wife, so hurry up and fight with us!" Mou Lizhu tried her best to support them and hoped to hear what they had to say again.It's a pity that I still couldn't support it, my mind gradually became confused, and finally I couldn't hear anything. Mu Lizhu originally told him what happened that night, but he just concealed her feelings when she and Dan Qiusheng met for the first time.Having said that, stop suddenly. Jiang Shangyun asked, "What happened next?" Mou Lizhu glanced at Dan Qiusheng and said, "At that time, I had passed out, and Dan Qiusheng should be the one to tell the story!" Lei Zhenzi said: "That's right, Miss Mou has already said it, what else are you avoiding?" Dan Qiusheng was thoughtful, and it seemed that he hadn't made up his mind yet. Mu Lizhu said slowly: "I know that you must keep your promise to Master, but I also know that there is an exception to your promise. "You believe that your master can restrain the scum of the sect and prevent them from colluding with the Qing government and leading the Kongtong sect to self-destruction. You swear that if this does not happen, you would rather be accused of being a traitor, Never tell the secret of this case, it is the same during the life and death of the master. Now, although your master and Dong Xuanzi are both dead, the things you don't want to see may still be unavoidable. Happened! If there is such a situation, Master Ling also promises that you can say it! If you don’t say it, when will you wait?” The meaning of these words is very clear, although Dong Xuanzi is dead, but among the leaders of the Kongtong Sect, there are still some people who want to follow Dong Xuanzi's path! After listening to Ji Hong's testimony and Mou Lizhu's recollection, the chivalrous figures present were somewhat suspicious of this, but they were still not sure.Now that Mou Lizhu said it suddenly, everyone couldn't help being shocked, and unconsciously focused their eyes on Dong Zhenzi and Dong Mingzi. Dong Zhenzi changed his complexion and said, "Miss Mou, you can't talk nonsense like that. Yes, I agreed to invite Ouyang Ye, the deputy commander of the Yulin Army, to be a guest of our faction to watch the ceremony, but you can't just say that I colluded with the Qing court, saying that I want to drive and fight against chivalry!" Mou Lizhu said: "I'm not talking about you, and I'm not talking about this matter either!" Dong Zhenzi said: "Then what do you want to say?" Mou Lizhu said: "The truth will always come to light, and there will always be people who know it. I will let others talk about it. I just want to say what I know first. thing." Dong Zhenzi said: "Okay, please tell me!" When Dong Zhenzi was arguing with Mou Lizhu, Dong Mingzi felt guilty, but he didn't dare to speak.At this time, his complexion became more and more pale. Mou Lizhu said: "The two officers that He Luo invited to murder Dan Qiusheng that night were the honored guests of someone from your sect. They haven't appeared yet, but they will definitely show up here!" Lei Zhenzi quickly asked: "The two officers, do you already know who they are?" Mou Lizhu said: "I didn't know it at the time, but of course I knew it later. One is the Ouyang Ye mentioned just now by the head of the Kongtong faction. Eighteen years ago, he was just a small official in the Imperial Forest Army. Now It is your honor to be the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army." Everyone already knew that today's meeting of Kongtong sect members was invited Ouyang Ye to watch the ceremony because of Dong Mingzi's idea, and they all thought at this time: "So they have already There is a source." Lei Zhenzi said, "What about the other one?" Mou Lizhu said: "The other one has a bigger background, he is Ouyang Ye's immediate boss!" Lei Zhenzi was taken aback, and said, "It's Hai Lancha, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army!" Mou Lizhu nodded, and repeated his words: "That's right, it's Hai Lancha, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army!" Lei Zhenzi was stunned for a while, then said repeatedly: "That's right, that's right!" Dong Zhenzi was uneasy, trying his tone: "What's wrong?" Lei Zhenzi said: "It must be this Hai Lancha who plotted against Yuxuzi, the elder of the noble sect! Among the eagle claws of the Qing court, he is the only one who has this skill. I am so stupid that I have never thought of this person." Dong Zhenzi said: "The old man's guess must be correct. However, the suspect has not been caught yet." The implication is that Lei Zhenzi's "guess" is just a guess. Lei Zhenzi said: "Don't be impatient, your head. Miss Mou just said that these two people will definitely show up here soon. I believe her words will not be said casually. Let's wait and see! Now invite Dan Qiusheng Tell the truth about that night." Dong Zhenzi said: "I would like to tell Miss Mou first, who is that 'someone' from our school?" Mou Lizhu said: "If I say it now, the head of your family will think I'm just 'guessing'. It's better to wait until Hai Lancha and Ouyang Ye show up. Maybe they will confess themselves." Dong Mingzi knew that it was inevitable to "appear", but he didn't panic as before.He thought to himself: "Judging from this girl's tone, it seems that Hai Lancha and Ouyang Ye will definitely be caught. Ouyang Ye, I can't guarantee that with Hai Lancha's martial arts, how can he fall into their hands ? Right here, Hailancha's people will not let their people go. And Hailancha has already made arrangements, even if they really can't beat their people, there is still a last-ditch move!" He said With his heart broken, he simply kept his face sullen and said nothing, letting everyone suspect him. Jin Zhuliu said: "The tree is full of dead branches. It is not surprising that your sect has one or two dishonest disciples like Dong Xuanzi. Your head doesn't need to worry about us implicating you in this matter." It turned out that Jin Zhuliu had already seen that Dong Zhenzi and Dong Mingzi were not exactly the same. Although Dong Zhenzi might have known about this case, he probably wouldn't have conspired with Dong Mingzi.It seems that he was mostly coerced by Dong Mingzi.Jin Zhuliu's words were intended to "pacify" Makoto Dong. Dong Zhenzi let go of his thoughts a little, and thought to himself: "Fortunately, they still trust me. If it really comes to a time when I can't protect myself, I have no choice but to ignore Dong Mingzi." So he said: "Okay, Dan Qiusheng, since everyone Everyone wants you to tell the truth about this case, so just say it.” Danqiu sighed and said: "In the past eighteen years, I hoped to preserve the reputation of my sect, but today's incident happened. Even Grand Master Yuxu, who loved me the most, was killed by the eagle's claws. It's as it is. Si, I can't stop talking. "Yes, I never dreamed that He Luo would murder me, but I didn't know about it beforehand. On the eve of my preparation to accompany He Luo to Mizhi to meet the bride, a person came to me quietly. This person is the most stealthy thief in the world." Happy Zhang. "He told me the news that Ji Hong, a famous one-legged thief in the Jianghu, has appeared on our way to Mizhi. According to the rumors he found out, it is very likely that he wants to rob Miss Mou's dowry. "Ji Hong is a one-legged thief. It is not uncommon for him to stop and rob. But Miss Mou is He Luo's fiancée. He will never know that he dared to break ground when he was too old. It is a bit strange. “快活张继续说道：'还有更稀奇的是，吉鸿要劫牟小姐之事是他的一个黑道的朋友泄漏的，这个人本来想约吉鸿做另一件案，去关外劫一帮参客。'吉鸿对他说道，我要发的大财，比劫十帮参客都多得多，恕我不奉陪了。那人知道有个神秘客人前两晚曾来找过吉鸿，问他是谁，吉鸿却不肯说。问他是否这个客人约他去做'大案'，他笑而不言。 “那人在吉鸿房间的墙壁上发现九个小小的窟窿，他也是个武学行家，一看就知是利剑所刺的痕迹。 “快活张说道，吉鸿这个黑道上的朋友也是我的朋友，他把这件事情告诉我，我也曾到吉鸿的住处去观看过，那时吉鸿已经出发，不在家中。我可以仔细观看，观看之后，很是怀疑，这似乎是崆峒派的连环快剑造成的痕迹。 “快活张问我，会使连环夺命剑法的崆峒派子弟有多少人？我说只有洞冥师叔、我和何洛。这个月来，洞冥师叔从未离山，剩下来的只有一个何洛。 “当时快活张就曾怀疑，是不是何洛怕我和他争夺掌门，要假手吉鸿来害我呢？但我不信。” 丹丘生继续说道：“快活张得到这个消息，便即亲自出马查探吉鸿行踪，果然在前往米脂的路上，发现他的踪迹。把几件事情连串起来，仔细推敲，快活张认为，吉鸿要做的'可发大财'的案子，十九恐怕要劫牟小姐的嫁妆了。只劫嫁妆还不打紧，内中恐怕还有阴谋，是何洛串通了他谋害我的。 “我多谢这位前辈对我的关怀，心里却认为他的看法未免太过多疑，我是无论如何也不能相信何洛会串通了强盗来害我的。 “唉，待到事情过后我才知道，他们的阴谋实在是比快活张所怀疑的还更严重。他们谋害我还不仅是为了要帮何洛取得掌门之位，而是要把崆峒派变成依附朝廷的黑帮！在何洛的背后还有海兰察和欧阳业。这些内情，快活张当时都还是未曾知道的。 “快活张好像知道我的心思，说道：'我知道你是不会相信的，但纵然你不相信，你也千万不可把我刚才告诉你的消息，说给何洛知道。'我答应了他，他才放心离去。” 讲完了快活张向他报讯这件事后，开始进入正题，丹丘生讲到那晚的遭遇了。 为了便于讲述起见，他把当时还未知道而现在已经知道的事情混合来说。 “那晚牟小姐对我揭破了何洛的阴谋，我虽然听得惊心动魄，可还是半信半疑，后来何洛来到，叫我先赶回古庙救人，我一想救人要紧，纵然牟小姐说的是真，何洛也只不过要谋害我，她和何洛一起料想是没事的。那些强盗，不管是否何洛请来，我倒要看看他们是否有本领杀得了我。 “在回去途中，我发现两条黑影跑得飞快，看样子是刚从古庙行凶之后出来的强盗。但因距离颇远，那两个人却好像并未发觉我。救人要紧，我也无暇去追强盗了。 “正在我将到古庙的时候，我又听见牟家仆人的呼喊，原来刚才已经来过一批强盗，就是我在路上看见的那两个人。他们是海兰察和欧阳业。 “海兰察和欧阳业大概因为在古庙里找不到我和牟小姐，连何洛也不在，是以他们只是伤了两个仆人，便又匆匆而去。 “在他们走后不久，何洛邀来的另一个强盗又来了。这人就是刚才作证的吉鸿了。我踏进古庙的时候，他正在行凶。 “吉鸿到那古庙的经过，以及当时庙中所见的情形吉鸿刚才已经说过，我就用不着多说了。 “他伤在我的剑下，害怕我会杀他，连忙说出他是受何洛指使而来的，求我饶他不死。 “我这才相信快活张所说的是事实，牟小姐说的也果然都是真话。就在此时，我又隐隐听得远处传来金铁交鸣之声，还听得何洛用传言入密的内功所发出的长啸。 “我恐怕牟小姐遇害，无暇理会吉鸿，连忙跑回那个山谷。只见一出好戏正在上演，可惜当时我却不知道他们是在串通做戏。” 说到这出“好戏”，丹丘生犹有余愤。 那晚的情形是这样的。 丹丘生回到那个山谷，只见何洛正在和两个军官恶斗。那两个军官不消说就是海兰察和欧阳业了。 海兰察佯作不知丹丘生业已赶来，喝道：“何洛，你别包庇同门，快快从实招来，否则你可要做替死鬼了。” “我根本就不知道我究竟是犯了哪一条王法，你叫我招供什么？”何洛叫道。 “你还装蒜！”海兰察喝道：“丹丘生勾结朝廷叛逆，他们已经查有实据。你是他最好的朋友，能不知情？” “哼！依我看来，他不仅知情，恐怕还是和丹丘生同谋的！”欧阳业接着说道。 何洛装作又是惊惶又是委屈的样子叫道：“我委实不知丹丘生去了哪里，更不知道他曾经作了一些什么事情？” 海兰察冷笑道：“你的岳父牟一行和你的师弟丹丘生都是私通反贼的叛逆，哼，要说你和他们不是一丘之貉，骗鬼也不能相信！你交不出丹丘生，又不肯招供，我们只有捉你归案了。” 欧阳业道：“何洛，事情我们已经说得很明白了，你还要抵抗，是不想要性命了么？” 海兰察跟着说道：“不错，他和丹丘生定是一丘之貉，他敢顽抗，我们杀了他也不会是杀错了人！” 何洛佯怒喝道：“大丈夫决不无辜受辱，崆峒派的弟子也决不能弃剑投降。要我束手就擒，万万不可能！好吧，你说我与丹丘生谋反，反就反了，那又怎样？” 他们一唱一和的“做戏”，心地忠厚的丹丘生本来对他起了的一点怀疑，不觉也动摇了。exactly:
