"You——" Tie Hongyin gritted his teeth with hatred.
Tie Qianfan and Tie Bingliang hurriedly stepped forward to stop their second brother.
Jiang is still too old, but even so, Tie Changqing is still as steady as a mountain. He bowed his hands and said very politely: "Master Jun, Quanzi was very offended just now, but he is also sad because of the death of his brother. Please forgive me. This is The matter is of great importance, and I hope you can inform me of my whereabouts."
Jun Xuelou said: "Just now Xiaosheng went to a stream a hundred miles away."
"Xijian?"
"Xijian!"
Tie Changqing looked at Lan Zuiwu, who was aside, and asked, "Did Miss Zuiwu go to the stream too?"
Lan Zuiwu nodded.
Chu Mubai looked at Lan Zuiwu and asked, "What are you doing in the stream?"
Before Lan Zuiwu could answer, Baili Taohua on the side had already said: "Master Jun, could the stream you are going to be related to the third riddle?"
Shi Hu was shocked and shouted: "Oh! I remembered, Yun Chujian Xijian. Mr. Jun, are you going to look for the third artifact?"
Han Ziyue whispered to Chu Mubai: "Care leads to chaos. You see, Shi Hu knows what they are doing in the stream, but you are here to make blind suspicions. Is Zui Dan the kind of woman who betrays you?"
"I..." Chu Mubai reached out and scratched his head.
Lan Zuiwu pouted and said: "Okay, you are a piece of wood, you actually suspect that I am doing something unethical behind your back."
Chu Mubai smirked and said, "You went out with that kid in the middle of the night. How can I rest assured? Naturally, my thoughts are wandering."
Lan Zuiwu said: "Who made you laugh at me before for not being able to solve the remaining riddles? I thought that since Mr. Jun has been to the ancient country of Heijue, he must know where the stream mentioned in the third sentence is. Maybe he will be alone. I quietly went over to take a look. So I followed him secretly, but unexpectedly he discovered me, so we went to the stream together."
Xiao Banxian said: "I see, so drunk dancing girl, have you found the third artifact?"
Lan Zuiwu shook his head and said, "No, the stream was frozen. Not only that, Mr. Jun and I were also attacked."
"Attack? Who attacked you?" Chu Mubai took her hand and asked hurriedly, looking up and down, for fear that she would be injured.
Lan Zuiwu said: "I'm fine. Mr. Jun rescued me, but we didn't see who attacked us."
Ye Zhenfeng was puzzled. With the skill of Lan Zuiwu and Jun Xuelou, they could not see who attacked them.
Jun Xuelou replied: "Because the one who attacked us was not a person, but the Silver Moon Flying Wheel."
"Silver Moon Flywheel?!" Everyone's eyes were shocked, and they couldn't help looking down at the three dead bodies.
Ye Zhenfeng bent down, looked at the wounds of the three corpses, and said: "If the ones who attacked these three are also Silver Moon Flying Wheels, then it can explain why some people can come and go without a trace in this palace, and also... The heads of three people were secretly taken away."
Qin Yuan frowned and said, "Mr. Ye, do you think the murder weapon that killed the three of them was the Silver Moon Flywheel?"
Ye Zhenfeng nodded.
Zhuang Yu stepped forward and said, "Whose weapon is this Silver Moon Flywheel? Why is it so terrifying?"
Han Ziyue said: "I'm afraid that this Silver Moon Flying Wheel is a masterless weapon, a divine weapon of heaven and earth that exists in Heijue Ancient City, and those who came in before may have been killed by this Silver Moon Flying Wheel."
"ah--"
Everyone couldn't help but get shocked.
Lan Zuiwu said: "What Ziyue said makes sense. Master Jun and I worked together to resist the Silver Moon Flying Wheel, but we couldn't gain the upper hand. We were almost injured by it. At that time, I felt that this Silver Moon Flying Wheel was not an ordinary magic weapon. , but something with spiritual energy.”
Ye Zhenfeng thought deeply, and then said: "If this Silver Moon Flywheel really has an owner, that person is likely to be among us. Only in this way can he kill people when many people are in the palace."
Qin Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "So, the killing time has begun. We may have walked into the trap designed by that person. Things like this will continue to happen in the future."
When he said this, he couldn't help but think of the mysterious man Chenghe Wanli told him that night. He thought that those three people were probably killed by that mysterious man.
Ye Zhenfeng said: "Everyone, for the sake of safety, I don't think we can continue to be careless. From now on, someone must take turns watching after nightfall and set up a night patrol to ensure safety."
Tie Changqing nodded and said: "Master Ye is right, a night patrol team must be established. No matter who that person is, as long as we strengthen our defense, nothing will happen."
Baili Taohua said: "In this case, we will discuss this matter now. I think the members of the night patrol will be determined by drawing lots. In this way, we can avoid colluding with each other to kill. What do you think?"
Xu Pingsheng said: "Young Master Baili is far-sighted, that's how it should be."
Chenghe Wanli said: "Then how should we draw lots to decide?"
Baili Taohua said: "Why don't you all write your names on the paper, and then I will draw them. Those whose names are called will be in one group."
Leng Gu on the side said: "This is too troublesome, but I have a good idea."
"Oh? What can I do?" Baili Taohua looked at Leng Gu.
Leng Gu said: "It is better to write different codes on the paper and let people draw them. In this way, people who draw the same group number will form a group. Wouldn't it be more concise?"
Leng Gu rarely interrupted, but the idea she proposed now made Baili Taohua nod in approval. He had underestimated her and couldn't help but pay attention to the smart woman in front of him.
Baili Taohua said: "Leng Gu's words make sense, so let's follow Leng Gu's suggestion. Next, we will prepare. Later, we will ask you to come over and draw lots to decide which group you will be placed in."
Tie Changqing said loudly: "Let me explain in advance, no matter which group is drawn, everyone must abide by the rules and do not change in private to avoid suspicion. What do you think?"
"Since Master Tie and Young Master Xiaoyao have said so, we naturally agree."
In the face of life and death, these people are all heroes, and no one dares to make mistakes to avoid being listed as a target of suspicion.
That night, they were busy burying corpses and drawing lots. By the time everyone was done, it was almost dawn. As soon as it was dawn, everyone couldn't sleep, so they clamored to go to the stream to look for the third piece. Artifact.
The early morning mist shrouded the stream, and the sun shone in through the mist. The stream was like a silver python reaching the sky, and everyone was looking around the frozen stream.
However, after searching for most of the day, no matter whether it was on the hill or the stream under the hill, everyone searched, but no clues were found. The search for this third artifact was not as smooth as the previous two artifacts, and everyone was dissatisfied.
From the beginning, I became a little downcast.
This day passed like this without a clue. For two days in a row, they searched around that damn stream, but found nothing.
On the fourth day, hail suddenly fell from the sky. The hail mixed with rain and snow, and hit everyone hard. Everyone was at a loss and fled back to the Grand Palace in a hurry. They burned a fire around the stove to keep warm, and everyone was shivering from the cold.
Ye Zhenfeng watched the rain outside the stone steps getting heavier and heavier. The hail was as big as a fist. He couldn't go out at all. If he went out, he would be hit by the hail accidentally.
In windy and snowy days, the sleet is what I'm most afraid of, not to mention these hailstones. Looking at the weather outside the eaves, Ye Zhenfeng had a premonition that it would probably be rainy in the next few days.
If they want to go out and look for it again, they may not be able to.
Baili Taohua walked to the eaves, listened to the patter of rain on the glazed tiles, and sighed: "The rain is getting heavier and heavier. It seems that the fire in the Daxing Palace cannot be stopped, otherwise someone will freeze to death sooner or later."
Ye Zhenfeng looked back at the people sitting in the Grand Palace and said: "Fortunately, they are all martial arts practitioners and can use martial arts spirits to keep out the cold. What I'm worried about is that someone will die for no reason again."
Baili Taohua nodded and said: "No one can come and go without a trace among the many masters. The one who killed must be the Silver Moon Flywheel."
Ye Zhenfeng said: "But we don't rule out that the owner of the Silver Moon Flywheel is among us."
Baili Taohua frowned slightly. At this moment, they were thinking of the same person, that is the mysterious Mr. Floating Meng, but who is this Mr. Floating Meng? They didn't even know whether he was a boy or a girl. For everyone here, everyone was worthy of their suspicion.
The night is dark, the moon is light, and people are lonely.
There was a loud sound of wind outside the Daxing Palace, like a ghost howling through the hall.
The long night was noisy, and the rain outside the eaves continued to fall. The rain gradually fell into a continuous state, as if a hole had been pierced in the sky, and the rain would never end.
This night, it was Ye Zhenfeng's turn to be on duty, and Chu Mubai was responsible for the first half of the night. In the second half of the night, he woke up Ye Zhenfeng, and then Ye Zhenfeng's night patrol team took over.
According to the results of the lottery, the people on duty in Ye Zhenfeng's group are: Ye Zhenfeng, Jun Xuelou, Xu Pingsheng, Yun Niang, Xiao Banxian, Zhu Jiuye, Wei Qing, Li Zhuoyu, Shu Jianghong, Duanmu Bai, a total of ten people.
Ten people gathered around the stove, warming themselves and chatting.
Xiao Banxian said: "Mr. Ye, since you proposed taking turns to guard, this murder incident has not happened again, otherwise I would not be able to sleep well. If I go on like this, my old bones will have to break down! "
Xu Pingsheng wiped his sword with a cloth and whispered: "If this continues, I'm worried that everyone will die due to lack of food and severe cold weather. Last night, two more people got sick from the cold."
Wei Qing said: "If it is not clear today, more and more people will get sick. We have only found two of the four artifacts. If the remaining two artifacts are not found for a long time, we cannot wait to die like this." ah!"
Yun Niang said: "Since I'm here, I have to find it. Do you want to go back?"
"Me!" Wei Qing broke the branch in his hand and said, "If it hadn't been for this heavy rain, I would have gone back long ago."
Everyone was silent for a while. Apparently some people agreed with Wei Qing's statement and were already shaken.
