Chapter 31 Chapter One

"If you want to know who the murderer is, please come to the thatched cottage." On the high wall outside the Xuanming Gate in Chengdu, there are twelve big characters written in full ink.Next to the words, there are three corpses lined up impressively.The body of the first corpse was sallow and looked like it was two or three years old, but it had been soaked in a special spice and hadn't been corrupted.What's even more frightening is that the corpse seems to have been broken, but it was carefully sewn together. There is a huge cross across its face, which can only be vaguely seen, and beside him, there are still a few large characters: " Ning Yuanchen, head of Huashan Mountain!" The second body was covered with armor, with a very heroic face, beard and hair like a halberd, although dead, the majesty was still there.The big characters next to it read: "Qiao Mu, Commander of the Five Armies." The third corpse was a swordsman. His appearance was very ordinary, and his clothes were also very ordinary. Shocking: "The number one sword in the world, Ling Tianzong!"

Ning Yuanchen, General Qiao, and Ling Tianzong are all well-known figures in the world. Their own cultivation is already at the top, and they are also powerful. It is difficult for ordinary people to meet each other.Especially Ling Tianzong, ever since his death in the battle against the Demon Sect in Changkong, he has been publicly promoted as the number one master of Baidao. In terms of swordsmanship, who can surpass Ling Tianzong?In terms of status, who can compare to General Qiao?Even if it is the head of Huashan, he is also a man of the world. Who doesn't want to know who killed them.These flamboyant words are more attractive than anything else!What is particularly striking is that these three people were not hung on the wall, but stabbed on the city wall by three identical swords.The sword pierced the wall for more than ten minutes, nailing the three corpses to death.A strong wind blew, and the three corpses stood motionless, their heads bowed, as if they were sighing silently.

In the distance, Yang Yizhi frowned, and murmured: "This third corpse is indeed the number one sword, Ling Tianzong. When we parted from him, he was still alive and well. How could he die so quickly?" Is it dead? It’s not counted as being dead, but being murdered here?” Shining stared at the three corpses, frowning even more: "I know the two corpses in front, they are indeed Ning Yuanchen and General Qiao." Yang Yizhi pondered: "What does this person want to do?" Shining Slowly said: "I'm afraid it's going to blame me." Yang Yizhi was startled, and said: "How can you see that?" Shining smiled and said: "Because the sword in their chest is the imitation of Wuyang sword." Yang Yizhi said: "You mean, someone wants to frame you, trying to declare to the world that you killed these three people?"

Shining shook his head and said: "It is logically impossible, because when I killed Ning Yuanchen, few people saw it. Similarly, you also know that not many people knew about the battle with Ling Tianzong. What's more, I am an unknown person borrowed from the world, who would want to frame me?" Yang Yizhi pondered: "In this way, what does this person mean?" Shining suddenly smiled and said: "Then we have to go to the thatched cottage!" There is only one that is called thatched cottage in Chengdu, and that is the Du Fu Thatched Cottage where the great poet Du Fu once lived.Since the Tang Dynasty, this place has become a tourist attraction, and many people want to see this place where the huts were broken by the autumn wind.Therefore, the thatched cottage was enclosed, and there was a teahouse inside for drinking tea and listening to books.This tea house has a very elegant name, it is called "Qingfeng Tea House".Usually, when you enter Du Fu's thatched cottage and enter the teahouse, you are paid three liters of money, and there are not many people; but today it is different, it is a full one or two taels of silver, and there are so many people that they are almost overwhelmed.The mouth of the manic man who collected the money was almost crooked.Yang Yizhi and Shining scraped together a few taels of silver, and were about to push forward when Mandiatou shouted: "The tickets for Youshi are sold out tonight, and those who want tickets for Xushi, please wait for me to eat them." Order something, and then make a fortune." After saying that, he sang a promise and walked away.Those who didn't get tickets sighed in unison.Yang Yizhi and Shining were also extremely disappointed, after waiting for a while, the mangy head went to eat somewhere.Yang Yizhi and Shining are both extremely high-level people, but at this moment they feel a little itchy, wishing they could grab the mangy head and snatch two tickets from his arms.Suddenly, a man wearing a tiled hat sneaked up and rubbed his body against Yang Yizhi, but looked away, and whispered: "I have two tickets, do you want them?" Shining was overjoyed , Said: "You bring it here!" Said, Shining handed over the two taels of silver that he had prepared long ago.

The man grabbed the silver and stuffed the ticket into Shi Ning's hand.Shining opened it up, stared blankly, and said, "Why is there only one piece?" The man stared at him, and said, "One piece for two taels of silver, if you want two, bring me another two taels of silver." Shining He said angrily: "That mangy head is obviously only sold for one tael of silver!" The man also said angrily: "But there is no ticket for Mandiatou, but I have it here!" Shining was stunned.He is telling the truth.The man sneered and said, "You don't want to hear who killed these three masters?"If not, who would come to this thatched cottage.So Shining obediently took out two taels of silver in exchange for this yellow ticket with sweaty hands.He felt sick to his stomach, and it didn't disappear until he was about to go in, because he heard the man selling tickets again, but at this time it had already become three taels of silver.

The lights in the tea house were brightly lit, illuminating the big dark table in the middle of the main room.There is a piece of Xingmu and a folding fan on the table, behind the table is a mahogany chair, but there is no one on the chair.There were more than a hundred people sitting in a mess at the table, crowding the small teahouse to the brim.Where is tea still sold?A bowl of boiled water costs ten big bucks!The owner of the teahouse also smiled crookedly. It wasn't until two o'clock in the unitary hour that the people in the teahouse were about to overturn the table, only then did they hear a cough, and then the curtain behind the table was lifted, and a Mr. Changshan came out.He didn't look very old, but he knew at the first sight that he was an old man, his face was tanned.His demeanor was calm, he didn't care about the noise of people in the audience, he walked slowly to the table and sat down, took two sips of tea from the Nanni pot in his hand, put it back in the sleeve of his left hand, and suddenly picked up the table with his right hand Xingmu on the top patted hard, and said sharply: "If you want to know about Jianghu, ask someone with a discerning eye. I am black and white, I know everything about the underworld and the white way. Everyone, please!"

Wake up, suddenly everyone in the teahouse was silent, waiting for him to continue talking.Unexpectedly, Mr. Hei Hei Zi half-closed his eyes, shrunk his body down, and said leisurely: "I wonder what you want to ask today?" He asked so knowingly, some of the rough-tempered ones lost their temper, and shouted angrily: "You thieves are good at playing tricks, it's not that someone hung up those three corpses outside the Xuanming Gate, who would come to this bird's place to listen to your nonsense?" The black and white man was not angry, smiled slightly, and said, "Everyone is here to listen to kill you." The head of Huashan Ning, the commander of the Five Armies, General Qiao, and the murderer of the Buddha Heart Sword Ling?" The audience laughed and said, "Are we here to see you, a charcoal head?" Everyone burst into laughter.Amidst the laughter, someone teased: "Looking at his appearance, I'm afraid he may not know these secrets of martial arts, and he may be lying to us, so he hesitates and puts on airs."

Hei Hei Zi smiled coldly, grabbed the folding fan on the table, and shook it lightly, but didn't say a word.Seeing that he didn't answer, the man thought he was timid, so he was even more courageous and questioned him endlessly.Black and White Zi suddenly pointed at the folding fan, and said slowly: "The two heroes Zhang Songwen and Xiao Songche of the Huashan School can recognize the first corpse, but are they Lingshi?" Everyone was shocked, because Zhang Songwen and Xiao Songche They are the two disciples of Ning Yuanchen, the head of the Huashan School. In recent years, Ning Yuanchen has rarely been to Huashan.But seeing the finger of Hei Hei Zi's folding fan, there are indeed two men in white sitting at the left corner of the wall. They both carry a strange ancient sword on their backs. The hilts of the swords are simply carved from two pieces of pine wood. It is the signature pine pattern sword of Huashan School.Those present here with more experience in Jianghu recognized that these two were Zhang Songwen and Xiao Songche, the two heroes of the Huashan School, so many people stood up one after another, saying hello to the two heroes.

The two men cupped their hands slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The master suddenly disappeared two years ago. The two of us have been searching hard, but we still don't know his whereabouts. I don't want to see his dead body in Chengdu. If Mr. Heihei knows the murderer is Please let me know whoever it is." As he spoke, two cold eyes fixed on Hei Zi.Hei Hei Zi smiled lightly, and said: "It seems that if I don't say anything, the Er Xia will definitely chop me into pieces." The Er Xia Zhang and Xiao closed their mouths, but their eyes became colder.In the small tea room, there was a chilling air immediately.The black and white son said leisurely: "I just don't know who Mei Qiansheng will ask for after you chopped it up." Everyone was shocked again, even Zhang and Xiao couldn't help sitting up, looking around quickly with.Mr. Qianmei, Mei Qiansheng, is a close friend of the Buddha Heart Sword Ling Tianzong, and his "Plum Blossom Thousand Falls" is well-known in the universe, and his reputation is almost on par with Ling Tianzong.Although Ling Tianzong is well-known as a chivalrous man, his personality is very lonely, and he has almost no acquaintances in his life, but he has a similar temperament with Mr. Qianmei, and both of them have suffered defeats under the sword of Changkong, so they are very good friends.Mr. Qianmei lives in the Xiling Snow Mountain outside Chengdu, so how could he not rush over when he heard the news of Ling Tianzong's death?Hei Heizi said calmly: "Don't look for it, Mr. Qianmei is not in the house." A clear voice said: "How does Mr. Hei Heizi know that the old man is here but he is not in the house?" The voice was shaky, but no one knew it was Where did it come from.But this qigong, how many people in the world can match it?Zhang and Xiao's expressions changed, and Qiqi put his hands on the hilt of his sword.Hei Hei Zi smiled leisurely, and said: "Wherever Mr. Qianmei goes, there is a fragrance of thousands of plums. My nose can't smell all kinds of smells, but this fragrance is the only one that I know immediately after entering my nose. That's why I know it. I have seen the traces of the old gentleman. I also know who the old gentleman is? How can he live with ordinary people? The hut is simple, how can the old gentleman have a toe? So it is just a wild guess."

Mr. Qianmei smiled and said: "Sure enough, a hero is born in a young age, and I am old. Why don't you just listen to the gentleman's talk in this month. Who killed Ling Daxia, please tell me." Hei Hei Zi smiled and said: "Mr. Qianmei said so, I am ashamed to be unreasonable. Please take a look at this sword." After speaking, he took out a sword from under the table and put it on the table. That sword is the same shape and size as the sword with three corpses nailed to the Xuanming Gate.It's just that the style of the sword is a bit weird, slightly different from ordinary swords.Seeing that no one answered, Hei Heizi turned to Zhang and Xiao and said, "Do you guys know what kind of sword this is?"

Zhang Songwen and Xiao Songche stared at the sword and shook their heads slowly.Hei Hei Zi raised his head to face the door, and said: "Mr. Qianmei, do you know the origin of this sword?" The moonlight outside the door was dim, and only Mr. Qianmei said slowly: "If the old man has no eyesight, this sword must be Is it Wuyang Sword?" Everyone in the teahouse stirred together, Wuyang Sword?Could it be Yu Changkong's Wuyang sword?Shining took a closer look, and saw that the sword was made of ordinary pig iron except for the different materials. It was exactly the same as the Wuyang sword on his body in terms of length, size and pattern marks. It was really hard to tell the difference. Hei Heizi flicked his sword with his hand, and said loudly: "That's right, it is Yu Changkong's famous weapon—Wuyang Sword!" Mr. Qianmei said decisively: "Impossible! Yu Changkong is dead, and Wuyang Sword has long since disappeared! "Hei Hei Zi laughed and said: "It's a pity that although people are dead, the sword is still there." Mr. Qianmei said sharply: "Even if the Wuyang Sword is here, no one can kill Ling Daxia!" What about the tactics?" The air suddenly became cold, and Mr. Qianmei's voice was like the moon falling in the long river, and said solemnly: "You mean, this person is trying the sword with Ling Daxia?" Hei Heizi nodded slowly, and said: "Ning Yuanchen, Qiao Mu Ling Tianzong and Ling Tianzong are all well-known contemporary masters. Ling Tianzong is born with supernatural powers, and is recognized as the number one in the world; while General Qiao possesses the secret art of immortality, and his skills are extraordinary and refined, slightly inferior to Hero Ling; and Ning Yuanchen is even inferior to Hero Ling One piece, so the three of them are the best opponents to try the sword." Zhang and Xiao blushed when they heard this, but it was inconvenient for Mr. Qianmei to be present.I heard Mr. Qianmei say coldly: "You mean, he has already mastered the Sword Heart Art?" Hei Hei Zi laughed and said, "If it wasn't for that, how could we kill Hero Ling?" Mr. Qian Mei didn't speak anymore, but the coldness in the air was getting heavier and heavier.He suddenly let out a long sigh, and the sigh was full of desolation, only to hear him say slowly: "You must tell me who the murderer is!" Hei Hei Zi said indifferently: "I will definitely say it, because the murderer is in this teahouse!" As soon as he said this, everyone was in an uproar, and Hei Hei Zi said leisurely, "Mr. Qianmei, now you know who the murderer is!" Is it?" There is a flower in front of everyone, and there is already one more person in the teahouse.But he was thin and short, like an old plum, but his beard was extremely long, hanging down to his knees.His eyes were shining brightly, staring straight at Yang Yizhi and Shining. Hearing Hei Hei Zi's question, Mr. Qianmei didn't turn his head, but said slowly: "When Hei Hei Zi spoke just now, the whole audience was in an uproar, only your expressions remained unchanged, but you were just surprised. If the old man didn't Guess wrong, you are the murderers of Ling Daxia?" He was wearing a white half-length shirt with two plum blossoms pinned to the front of the shirt.It was already May, but the two plum blossoms were still blooming brilliantly and fragrant.Following his words, the plum blossoms suddenly trembled! Shining suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and a fierce murderous aura shot out from the plum blossom, piercing his body sharply.Shining couldn't help being startled, knowing that Mr. Qianmei, who looked like an old man planting flowers in the country, was a rare master who was never inferior to Ling Tianzong! Seeing that they did not speak, Mr. Qianmei said coldly: "Answer me!" He is a high-handed person, and he is used to bossing him around. Shining took a breath, and said slowly, "I didn't kill Hero Ling." Mr. Qianmei ignored his answer, and said coldly, "Have you practiced Sword Heart Art?" Shi Ning knew very well in his heart that if he admitted that he had practiced Sword Heart Jue, it would be difficult to get rid of the crime.But he never lied, so he just shook his head and said: "I didn't practice it, I just performed it by accident." Mr. Qianmei's pupils suddenly burst into a blazing light, and he said sharply: "Show it to me." Look!" Shining looked at him and shook his head.Mr. Qianmei smiled and said, "Is it because you don't have a sword in your hand? I'll give it to you!" His head was raised back suddenly, and he flew backward quickly with his whole body.There were many people in the teahouse, and it was extremely crowded, but Mr. Qianmei retreated to the side of Zhang and Xiao Erxia somehow, reached out and pulled out the two Songwen swords, her body suddenly swayed, and flashed in front of Shining, There were two ding dings, and the two Songwen swords were inserted in front of Shi Ning, and he said coldly: "Use it quickly!" His proud plum blossom Qianluo was defeated by Yu Changkong's sword, and he has never been reconciled in the past ten years .Today, I heard that someone has practiced Sword Heart Jue. The heart of this surprise contest is probably still on revenge for Ling Tianzong.Regardless of whether Shining agreed or not, he forced Shining to use it. Hei Hei Zi suddenly laughed and said, "Old Mr. Mei may have forgotten the rules of the Wuyang Sword! Although Yu Changkong had hidden the Wuyang Sword back then, no one knew where his sword was. How could Mr. Mei know about him?" You don't have a sword?" Mr. Qianmei was startled, and said, "You're right!" He stretched out his hand, pulled out the two loose-patterned swords, and said, "Give it back to you!" With a wave of his hand, the two swords Impartially inserted in front of Zhang and Xiao Erxia, it really is exactly the same, just like seeing it with your own eyes.The two Heroes Zhang and Xiao glanced at each other, their faces were ashen.Hei Hei Zi said leisurely again: "How can a person holding the Wuyang sword take the initiative to attack? It seems that Mr. Mei has forgotten this rule!" Mr. Qian Mei laughed: "If you don't tell me, I really forgot!" The two plum blossoms on the front of the front suddenly jumped up, and there was a flower in front of him. His right hand had already clamped the two plum blossoms between his fingers. Thousands of thousands, coming to Shining tide.Everything in the world seems to be submerged in this ocean of plum blossoms.This is Mr. Qianmei's famous stunt, Plum Blossom Flow.The plum blossoms of Liuqiao are fragrant to the bone, and the plum blossoms are murderous.
