As the investigation deepened, Xue Yuxin felt that she could no longer serve as a benchmark for measuring the murderer's martial arts skills. She became more and more aware of the murderer's unfathomable power, and the "tens of times" strength gap also increased to "tens of times." .
"These sixteen deceased people all came from the Beggar Gang." Xue Yuxin judged this from the clothes worn by the corpses and tokens of identity such as waistbands.
"All the dead are young or middle-aged. Only three of them are slightly older. Let me see the appearance of these three..." Xue Yuxin fiddled with the three heads on the ground with a long sword, parting their hair to let them go. The corpse's face was fully exposed.
"I only know one of them, the Right Protector of the Beggar Clan—Pei Chang." After confirming the identity of the leader, Xue Yuxin made a reasonable guess: "The other two are probably elders of the Beggar Clan."
According to the endorsement in the book, Xue Yuxin's guess was correct. These two people were indeed second-rate warriors who were the elders of the Beggar Clan's Eight Bags along with Huang Yuan and Cui Kuai who appeared in the previous article. As for their names... they were not important.
Xue Yuxin's torture of the three heads was far from over. By comparing the cuts of the wounds, she successfully found the torso parts of the three people below the neck, and then assembled the whole body.
What do the put together bodies of the three people look like? I will use five "Yu-Gi-Oh" cards to describe it. They are: [The right foot of the sealed person], [The left foot of the sealed person], [The right wrist of the sealed person], and [The left wrist of the sealed person]. ], and [Sealed Exodia].
"The locations where the three broken corpses were scattered were facing the door, in a Z-shaped shape, and very compact. This is a very common reception position... Well, maybe this can mean that they were talking to the murderer at the time of the incident? "
After getting no more useful information from Pei Chang and the others, Xue Yuxin turned her attention to other corpses.
After another detailed inspection, the famous detective Xue Yuxin has generated a detailed crime report in her mind:
"The tragedy happened half an hour ago, and everyone was killed instantly in a short period of time."
"Pei Chang, the right protector of the Beggar Clan, is a good wielder of a knife and is at the top of the list of quickest swordsmen in the world. But such a person was killed before he even had time to draw the knife."
"However, at least Pei Chang reacted a little bit, which can be seen from his stunned expression. As for the others, it was completely different. Their calm expressions before death remained on the corpses, indicating that none of them People can catch the murderer's attack." Xue Yuxin picked up a two-foot-long scabbard from the ground, and the broken sword inside fell to the ground with a clang: "Sure enough, all the weapons were gathered in the scabbard. There are no exceptions. This also proves that the murderer's attack speed is even faster than his eyes and thinking."
"Based on the positions of the sixteen corpses, we can deduce the approximate position in front of them, which is an arc facing the gate; and the consecutive incisions on the different corpses indicate that the murderer cut everyone horizontally at the same time. The broken...vertical attacks are more like random attacks."
The murderer's move was equivalent to a Taekwondo master breaking a dozen stacked bricks with one palm, or splitting the bricks into two pieces. It was as difficult as climbing to the sky. As for the vertical slash, it didn't matter whether it was a "fake hand" or not. , judging from the results, it is also extremely accurate. Those stick-shaped corpses were as simple as half-length plaster statues, with no extraneous parts at all.
"And...did the murderer slash three times horizontally at the same time? How many arms does he/she have?"
The results of the on-site inspection confused Xue Yuxin.

Already, then she made the most appropriate comment: "The murderer who did all this... what kind of monster is he..."
Due to the limitations of the times, Xue Yuxin's thoughts wandered in a direction that was reasonable for the time being: "It's about releasing internal power to the outside! Only the legendary martial arts of the Immortal family, which can only be used by the most powerful people who have entered the Tao through martial arts, can produce such power! "
According to Xue Yuxin's understanding, the members of the Beggar Clan were not cut open by physical cold weapons, but by internal force that was condensed to a near-substantial nature. The effect was roughly similar to the common "chopping wave" in comics.
"I didn't expect that my impromptu trip tonight would lead to such unexpected gains!" Xue Yuxin was overjoyed. Although she knew almost nothing about the "senior murderer", Xue Yuxin, as a warrior, was naturally greatly encouraged to know that such an existence existed in the world.
"Huh? Why is there a faint noise outside? And...why is the sky in the distance slightly red?"
Because she was too involved in reasoning, Xue Yuxin didn't realize until now that this night was a little uneventful. When she heard something strange, she turned over and flew up to the corner of the eaves, looking towards the "red sky":
"Fire? And that direction is... Pufu?!"
…………
The raging fire crazily licked the carved beams and painted buildings and exotic flowers and plants of Pu Mansion. Countless killing sounds came from the red flames. From time to time, officers, soldiers, Jianghu people, and even ordinary servants of Pu Mansion were killed in the melee, and the bodies All around.
Two-quarters of an hour ago, Jin Yiwei and Dongchang, who had the numerical advantage, surrounded Pu Mansion like an iron barrel. Yue Kuohai personally led the remaining troops into the mansion and rushed directly to where the martial arts heroes were.
Faced with this kind of life and death crisis, the Jianghu guests were not slow to respond. Among them, the most outstanding performance was undoubtedly Zou Yi, the head of the Zou family: he made the correct judgment at the first time, and then used his internal power to amplify his voice to the people. Everyone analyzed the situation between the enemy and ourselves, and relied on their prestige and quick wit to make reasonable suggestions, and successfully gathered most of the Jianghu people. The latter temporarily responded to the enemy together under Zou Yi's command and arrangement, so that Yue Kuohai and others faced an orderly offensive and defensive whole rather than a scattered mess.
Under Zou Yi's prompting, Shen Huai, a master of both swords and bows, led a dozen Jianghu people who were good at long-range martial arts such as bows, arrows, and hidden weapons, and climbed to a high-rise building in Pufu as the commanding heights. The enemy launched a counterattack and killed many people from the imperial court. Tian Weicheng, who was familiar with Pufu's topography, topography, and architectural environment, was appointed by Yue Kuohai as the on-site commander here. The latter assigned him a team of archers and asked Tian Qian to Hu captured the tall building. The long-range strike forces of the two sides started shooting back and forth, launching an offensive and defensive battle like the "Pavlov's Building" of later generations.
On the main battlefield, the fighting was equally fierce. In terms of the quality of individual soldiers, Jianghu Ke are undoubtedly superior. Facing this group of elite monsters, the numerical advantage of Jinyiwei and Dongchang is not so obvious. Fortunately, there are several mini-boss-level masters among them, fighting against several leaders of second-rate sects, direct disciples of first-rate sects, and powerful martial arts cultivators without any sect. They were also fighting inextricably, making these martial arts experts unable to support their comrades for a while.
"That spear in your hand...could it be the Point Star Spear, one of the four great weapons?"
A Jianghu guest known as the "King of Guns in the Desert" had just fought Zhuo Jing, and he quickly realized that the opponent's weapon was extraordinary.
"Exactly." Zhuo Jing's answer was concise and to the point.
"Hmph, the things that belonged to Ma Chun, the head of the Cangwu Sect, have now fallen into the hands of the lackeys of the imperial court.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
. The death of Master Ma, including the murders that have occurred in the capital these days, must be your work! "
"There are so many nonsense words for a dying person." Zhuo Jing danced the starting star gun, and a cold light suddenly appeared...
Not far away, a conversation with similar content was taking place:
"Isn't that Sanqing of the Xiang family likely to have been poisoned?"
The leader of the Moyun Sword Sect swung his sword to fend off the Langhuan Sword, and coldly asked his opponent, a young woman with a beautiful face and a charming temperament.
"Asking knowingly." Ji Ling'er's tone was not as soft and pleasant as her appearance: "You have seen the Langhuan Sword and Yagan Sword in my hand, do you need to confirm it more?"
"It makes sense." The sect leader finally said, but his body was slashed with the knife again: "But I don't understand, you don't seem to be good at swordsmanship."
"Ah, indeed, my previous weapon was the Divine Weapon Crescent Moon."
"By the way, because I am used to using double daggers, I chose the Langya swords as temporary weapons. Otherwise, you might see the Feiliu sword in my hands."
"Liu Jianshou of the Feiliu Sword Sect has also..."
"Of course."
On the other side, the "general" level combat forces of both sides were performing a wonderful fight.
Kuai Tinglei swung a copper mace with a net weight of more than twenty kilograms and smashed the heads of the four masters who participated in the siege. He praised the remaining Jianghu Ke who was holding a fine iron long stick: "Among the five of them, only Your martial arts are pretty good."
"Haha," the man let out a bitter laugh: "You might as well just admit that I am lucky. I am a master who specializes in foreign martial arts, and my weapon happens to be a thick enough iron rod."
"Sure enough, those who practice this kind of Kung Fu and use this kind of weapons are all open-minded people like me."
Kuai Tinglei moved his neck and walked forward: "I respect you for being a man, and I will give you a good reward."
"Unfortunately, this official, Zou, is also somewhat confident in his martial arts. Why not have a fight with a commoner?"
Zou Yi appeared silently a few meters behind Kuai Tinglei. Although he used the honorific "official" to the latter and referred to himself as a "little citizen", his hand movements clearly proved that he had little respect for Kuai Tinglei: while saying this, Zou Yi He also broke the neck of a Jinyi guard Qianhu.
…………
The "Poison King of Xiling" Gongsun Xiao was personally dealt with by Yue Kuohai. The former had already broken through the encirclement with the help of poisonous smoke and was almost unstoppable. However, although Gongsun Xiao's poisonous smoke was highly toxic, it could not distinguish between friend and foe, causing several Jianghu people who followed him to die from the poison, so Yue Kuohai only had to fight him alone. This is also normal. As the "Poison King", Gongsun Xiao is not as good as Huandu Qingtian (a character in the comic "Fox Demon Little Matchmaker"). It is impossible to control the flow of poisonous smoke. If one day Gongsun Xiao achieves this, then there is no doubt that he has become what Xue Yuxin calls "entering the Tao through martial arts."
As for Hao Yan and Eunuch Hao, he is taking advantage of the situation. This man first directed the Dongchang troops to raid Pufu's warehouse, and then went to plunder the precious calligraphy and paintings hanging in several main rooms, as well as the antique treasures displayed, and actually made a lot of money. Of course, not all of this money belongs to him. Except for the part that needs to be handed over, the rest has to be divided up with Yue Kuohai, Kuai Tinglei, and several Jinyiwei Qianhu and Dongchang Stalls. Therefore, while this guy was cleaning up, he sincerely prayed that the Jianghu people could give some help and replace a few more of his own people here.
