After stepping forward to investigate carefully, Gu Xiao discovered something fishy. On that day, in the mountains behind Hejiabao, Gu Xiao had seen the He family worshipers and the He family guardians who had been injured by ligers. The injuries on the bodies in the sacks were completely different.
Those who died in the mouths or claws of ligers were all lacerated by the teeth and claws of the beasts, and the corpses in these sacks had open bowels and intestines, but they seemed to have been cut open by a sharp knife, so Gu Xiao spoke It is certain that these corpses were not injured by ligers.
Among these corpses, one corpse caught Gu Xiao's attention. This man was a little older. Even though he was dead, he still held the weapon tightly in his hand, with a furious look on his face. He was probably the same as the other corpses when they died. A look of unwillingness or a look of horror are completely different.
Gu Xiao stepped forward and inspected carefully. He found that this man did not have his intestines and stomach pierced like other corpses, so he stretched out two fingers to explore his inner breath. Sure enough, he did not die in the mouth of a liger, but was killed by a master's blow. .
Before Xu Shi died, he was filled with anger. This man's beard and hair were all spread out, and even the fingers holding the weapon were pale and bloodless. What on earth made this He family worshiper so angry? Who could be in the He family? When enshrining the rage, kill it with one blow.
Gu Xiao was not sure, so he shifted his gaze to the weapon he was holding tightly in his hand. It was a broad-edged sword. Judging from the shape of the sword, this sacrificial sword technique was fierce and domineering. There are several gaps on the edge of the weapon, as if they were struck by an extremely tough blunt weapon.
However, judging from the martial arts level of the He family worshiper, if you want to leave a gap in his broad-bladed sword, the perpetrator must be higher than the He family worshiper in terms of martial arts level and weapon. In the fort, including Gu Xiao, there were only a few people with this level of martial arts.
Immediately, he looked aside and saw that he was also wearing the brocade robes of the He family. Unlike the older He family worshiper, Gu Xiao had not only seen this man before, but he also held the iron plate in her hand in front of the He family's mansion. As for the high pole basket, it is the He family who worships Fang Yuehua.
"The father and son of the He family have been executed. What can be done is He Kui, Jin Buyi, Yu Wentuo, Xiaojie, Miss Jiang, and the He family's sacrifices who were lucky enough to survive the capture of ligers... These few worshippers and the He Family Nursing Home can bring people to bury the body, so this person's status in the He Family Fort must be high."
Looking again at the gap in the weapon held by the older minister of the He family, Gu Xiao couldn't help but think of someone.
That day at the Hejiabao Huachao Arena, Shui Canglan of the Rushui Sword Sect defeated Yan Shuang, who was good at using butterfly swords. Just when he was about to take Yan Shuang's life, the man used his sword to swing Shui Canglan's Ru Shui away. The sword saved Yan Shuang. Now that he thought about it, the sword in his hand seemed to match the gap on the enshrined broad-bladed sword.
"Jin Buyi? According to He Kui, wasn't he seriously injured when he assassinated He Zhidao? By the way, He Kui also mentioned that that day he followed He Zhidao to the back mountain and left behind the Chongyang pen It is this person who is taking care of it. It seems that the solution to the mystery must fall on the head of the Hejiabao enshrinement." Gu Xiao whispered to himself in a low voice.
"If you follow your opinion, these He family offerings were all killed by him?" After hearing Gu Xiao's muttering, Jiang Ningxue asked in confusion.
Gu Xiao shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I don't know either, but since the death of the He family's father and son, the facts in the He family's fort have become too strange, and with the disappearance of the Chongyang pen... we have to try to meet Jin Bu. Move and make plans later.”
"That's fine." Jiang Ningxue also agreed.
Having agreed, Gu Xiao didn't wait any longer. He exerted force with his palms and pushed the linen bag into the deep pit. Then he flipped his palms and buried the linen bag again with snow and mud. Then the two of them performed Qinggong and looked at Hejiabao. OK.
——
In the Flower Chao Garden, Jin Buyi, who had a fine cloth wrapped around his shoulders, frowned and looked at He Kui, who was standing with his back to him and his hands behind his back. Fu Zhu, although He Ji escaped, if he had a broken arm and was injured according to what you said, he would not have been able to escape far. Why not let Miss Feng recover from her injuries and let us go to investigate together so that we can take care of her... Furthermore explain..."
Before he finished speaking, He Kui raised his hand to interrupt. He turned around and walked to Jin Buyi's side. He Kui's eyes fell on this iron-faced golden hero who was famous in the world. He saw that his face was upright and fearless. , withdrew his gaze and sighed slightly.
"Brother Jin, it's not that you don't know. I have been carefully staying by He Zhidao's side for many years. How could I be willing to watch He Ji escape after I just avenged him? I wanted to chase him myself, but Miss Feng was eager for revenge and said frankly that Feng We still need you and me to take charge of the overall situation... In recent years, whether it is the He family's property in Zangbei City or the Hejia Fort outside the city, it was all obtained by you and me with our lives. There are so many covetous people in the world, it is even more difficult for us to find out what kind of collusion there is between Hejiabao and the Golden Knife Sect..."
After finishing speaking, Jin Buyi's frown seemed to relax, and he knew that he had been somewhat moved by his words, so he continued to speak: "Brother Jin, we have known each other for many years, but you still don't know who I am. "
Jin Buyi also sighed slightly along with He Kui, and also sighed: "Hey... I also know your brother's difficulties, but you shouldn't let Miss Feng pursue the pursuit alone, let alone the young people who are worshiped by the He family. Previously, when He Zhidao was still around, he paid no attention to the origins and deeds of these people... But now that the He family and his son are gone, we should expel these scum from Fengjiabao... .”
He Kui said with a smile: "Those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters. Brother Jin, don't worry. When I find out what happened with the Golden Knife Sect, and when Miss Feng returns to Fengjiapu, I will naturally take care of these people. By then, I will have my great hatred." Report, wouldn’t it be great for us brothers to travel around the world like we did in the past?”
After listening to He Kui's words, Jin Buyi felt relieved and said, "It's good to have a brother. I'm just worried that my brother... will be blinded by the wealth and status of Hejiabao..."
He Kui laughed when he heard this, with a flash of cruelty in his eyes: "Brother Jin, don't worry, these passing clouds are nothing more than rubbish in my eyes."
Jin Buyi looked at He Kui's smile. He didn't feel friendly, but rather unfamiliar, and said again: "This is the best, by the way... I have never known what you want to do with the Chongyang pen. Since Na Muyi is for The fact that Murong Gu, whom Chongyang Bi knows, is here will not hinder us from continuing the investigation. The matter here has nothing to do with him, so why should we hide the matter of Chongyang Bi’s imprisonment from him?"
He Kui's smile became even brighter when he heard this, and he said: "What happened in Hejiabao. If the outside world wants to believe that the He family and his son died at the mouth of a liger, all those who know the inside story need to keep silent. Yuwen Tuo is a son of a famous family, and he has a big heart. Justice, I moved with emotion and reason, he has already agreed to conceal this matter for me... And Shui Canglan was blind, fainted and didn't know what happened at that time... So as long as Holding the Chongyang Pen in my hands, Namu Yi can't find him, and he can't find what he wants. Naturally, he will ask for it. When the time comes, he will definitely cover up the incident in Hejiabao for us. As for the others, I will There is a way..."
While the two were talking, the sound of footsteps outside Hua Chao Garden was heard, and the sharp voice of Laughing Yama Luo sounded: "Master He, we have followed your order and disposed of the corpses of He Lie's group..."
Laughing Yama and Thousand-Armed Tathagata were about to enter the Flower Chaoyuan. When they saw Jin Buyi standing in the room, he immediately stopped talking and looked at He Kui.
"What, Helie is dead? How did he die?" Jin Buyi said in shock after hearing Xiaoyan Luo's words.
Yan Luo and Yan Luo raised their hands to stop laughing and were about to answer when He Kui said regretfully: "That day, when I rushed to the back mountain, I found that He Lie and others had died under the claws of ligers. ...After I rushed back to Hejiapu, I thought about sending someone to bury their bodies alive..."
Jin Buyi felt disappointed. Helie had been defeated by him before, but because of this encounter, he suddenly felt a sense of pity for each other. After he entered Hejiabao, he asked why he was willing to join Hejiapu to worship. Back then, In order to repay the kindness of the Lord of Wind Castle, he lied casually and wanted Helie to leave. However, he did not expect that this man Helie would also follow him into the He family, just to find out the truth from him.
This kind of confidant, if Jin Buyi didn't want him to take risks, he would probably tell the truth truthfully, but he didn't expect that even though he didn't want to involve him, he still died in the back of the He family because of himself.
The worry in Jin Buyi's eyes did not dissipate due to He Kui's explanation, but became more intense just now... After a moment of silence, he suddenly changed the subject and asked, "When did Miss Feng set off?"
When He Kui heard this, he stopped laughing and looked at Jin Buyi. After a moment, he said, "The evening before yesterday."
Jin Buyi stared at He Kui's increasingly gloomy face and asked in a deep voice: "Miss Feng's injury has not healed yet. Did she bring any medicine or horses with her when we set off?"
He Kui said: "When she left, she only left a handwritten letter and did not say goodbye to me in person."
Jin Buyi frowned again and said, "Where is the handwriting?"
Seeing Jin Buyi's solemn expression, He Kui withdrew his gaze, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Jin Buyi. Jin Buyi looked back at Xiao Yanluo and the two of them, with a wary look on the surface, and took it with one hand. He held the corner of the letter, shook it open, and looked at the handwritten letter left by Miss Feng.
There were only a few words, and Jin Buyi had finished reading it as his eyes moved. The handwriting in the letter was beautiful, but it was a woman's handwriting, but Jin Buyi had never seen Miss Feng's handwriting... Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Smiling Yama and Thousand-Armed Tathagata. Jin Buyi folded the handwritten note back and said, "Brother, I still have something to say..."
He Kui understood and signaled Xiaoyan and Luo to retreat, and then said, "Brother Jin has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"Where did you keep the Chongyang Bi? I want to see him, can you?" Jin Buyi said when he saw that Yan Luo and Yan Luo had left.
He Kui said: "Brother Jin, don't worry, I have sealed his acupuncture points and he can't escape..."
"You asked him to take care of me that day, but I was seriously injured and passed out. I don't know what happened next. He should know the whereabouts of Miss Feng...so I want to ask him face to face." Jin Buyi Before He Kui could finish speaking, he took over and continued to speak.
He Kui shut up and said no more. He quietly looked at Jin Buyi with a persistent look on his face. After a moment, he asked, "Brother Jin, are you sure you want to ask about the Double Ninth Festival Pen?"
Jin Buyi said persistently: "Brother He, please lead the way."
He Kui looked away, sighed slightly and said, "Okay, Brother Jin will come with me."
Walking outside the Huachao Courtyard, He Kui said to Jin Buyi beside him: "Brother Jin, please wait for a moment. I will explain the affairs in the fort."
Jin Buyi said: "Brother He, please do as you please."
He Kui then raised his hand to signal Xiao Yan and Luo who were waiting outside Hua Chaoyuan. When they were close, he lowered his voice and asked, "You guys go to Zang Beicheng..." At the end of the sentence, his voice It's becoming less and less audible...
Jin Buyi stood a little further away and didn't know what He Kui wanted to say to Xiao Yan and Luo. He only saw that the faces of Xiao Yan and Luo changed slightly when they heard the words, and their eyes seemed to be confirming with He Kui. Jin Buyi did not see He Kui's expression. , only to see him nodding affirmatively, did Xiaoyan and Luo take the order and leave.
After explaining the matter, He Kui immediately turned around and said to Jin Bumo behind him: "Let's go, Brother Jin."
Before Jin Buyi could look back with wary and doubtful eyes from the retreating figures of Xiao Yan Luo, He Kui was already walking towards the back hill of He's house with his hands behind his back.
Jin Buyi didn't care what instructions Xiao Yan and Luo had received from He Kui, so he had no choice but to turn around and follow He Kui's footsteps.
Some people died, but not completely...
