"You're acting like this... you're really a bit crazy."
Zui Chenxiang took a sip of tea, with some doubts in his eyes.
Poinsettia put her head down and put a piece of fish into the bowl, the plum blossom pendant on her back shining brightly.
"It doesn't matter." He said while chewing, "I have a plan, you can rest assured."
Zui Chenxiang nodded and did not raise any more doubts.
…………
"How..." Fu Yunge was shocked when he saw the terrifying scene in front of him.
Dongfang Shiming couldn't help but take two steps back when he saw this, cold sweat sliding down his cheeks.
Shockingly, they saw dozens of tragically dead corpses lying in front of them in the cabin!
The smell of blood permeated every corner of the cabin, and bright red blood sprayed everywhere. There was a short knife nailed to one of the wooden beams. The blood on the knife had solidified, making it look ferocious and terrifying.
The dark cabin was extremely dark, and the sand and dust filled the faint beam of light. It was silent and terrifying.
The depressive atmosphere made both of them feel uncomfortable, so they turned around and retreated outside. At the door, they solemnly faced the tragic situation in the house, and each of them pondered.
"Wait a minute." Suddenly, Fu Yunge noticed something, "Look, they all have black headscarves on their heads."
After hearing this, Dongfang Shiming immediately squinted his eyes and found that it was indeed the case. Moreover, the deceased were all very strong and strong, obviously not from Buyuanfang.
"Are these..." Dongfang Shiming slowly guessed, "the murderers who committed arson a few days ago?"
As soon as he said it, he suddenly recalled the strange appearance of Lao Aotou last night, and everything seemed to make sense.
After the murder in Buyuanfang, there must have been a mysterious master who came to do justice for heaven. This man found their camp, which was the cabin, and killed the villains.
Judging from the situation at the scene and Lao Aotou's mood, this man basically crushed the battle. Except for Lao Aotou who managed to escape, all the other villains were killed in the cabin.
Fu Yunge and Dongfang Shiming basically have the same idea, and it is estimated that the facts are not far from this speculation.
However, looking at the number of big men buried here, including the old man who escaped in embarrassment, it is unusual for someone with such strength, and may be on par with Zui Chenxiang.
“It’s not impossible, it’s just that we don’t know enough.”
Dongfang Shiming thought for a moment, raised his head and said to Fu Yunge.
Fu Yunge nodded. How could he not know that his understanding of power was far from enough.
For example, the battle between Kou Wufu and the others against Zuichen Township was already far beyond his understanding. So now facing this situation, although he was curious, it was not unbelievable.
"This... shall we go back first?" Fu Yunge asked hesitantly.
He originally expected that there would be a fierce battle today, but when he saw such an unexpected scene, he didn't know what to do for a while.
Dongfang Shiming squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then nodded hesitantly.
There is no point for the two of them to stay here now. It is better to go back to Zuichen Township to discuss it and let them make up their minds.
"Then, let's go."
…………
It was already evening when the two of them returned to Chaoyun Street. After dinner, they rushed back to Zuichen's hometown.
The door was unlocked, but after the two entered the house, they found that there were only Yue Shenchen and two people, and there was no trace of Zui Chenxiang.
"Where's Senior Zuichenxiang?" Fu Yunge looked around, but there was still no trace of Zuichenxiang, which was a little strange.
Kou Wufu was lying on the table playing with melon seeds in boredom, while Yue Shenchen was finding fire seeds from the house and preparing to light candles. Hearing Fu Yunge ask this, he couldn't help but shake his head and said: "I don't know... Well, I heard that I met an old friend and will be back later tonight."
"Old friend?" Fu Yunge was very curious.
Dongfang Shiming also turned his head curiously, wanting to hear Yue Shenchen continue.
However, before Yue Shenchen could reply, voices of conversation could be heard outside the courtyard:
"There are three taverns, the second one is okay, the rest are just mediocre food, nothing remarkable."
Another familiar voice snorted:
"You haven't had enough fun yet, but my wallet is already at its bottom."
The four people in the room all heard that Zui Chenxiang and his "old friend" were back, and turned to look.
From the conversation between the two, it seemed that they went to taste the delicacies of Chaoyun Street, but I wonder if Zuichenxiang gave up a day to spend time with an old friend, which meant that he had an idea of what happened in Buyuanfang.
Under the cover of night, the hazy figures of two people walked in from outside the door.
But when he saw the figure next to Zui Chenxiang, Fu Yunge's pupils suddenly shrank.
That figure was so similar, it was just like the figure leaving in a hurry that I bumped into that day!
Since it was evening, the blurry figures of the two people overlapped in Fu Yunge's mind as if by coincidence. But Fu Yunge couldn't believe it, so he observed it carefully and finally came to a conclusion.
There can be no mistake, it must be him! Fu Yunge thought secretly and at the same time increased his vigilance.
Just as he was thinking this, the two people had already opened the door and walked into the house.
"Your home is still the same." Poinsettia glanced around, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
Zui Chenxiang took a mat and sat down, not answering his comments.
Kowulf, who was originally lying on the table, suddenly caught a glimpse of the sword bag behind Poinsettia, his expression was stunned, and he stood up suddenly. Yue Shenchen saw that he had a strange look on his face and quietly leaned over, wanting to hear what he had discovered.
Kowulf pointed to him the plum blossom pendant, his face full of shock.
Unexpectedly, Yue Shenchen was also shocked after seeing it, and then coughed: "Cough cough... cough, that, that..."
Poinsettia turned her head and looked at Yue Shenchen and Kou Wufu who looked strange.
"You...ahem, you are that...first grade..."
Yue Shenchen tried to say the name of the person in front of her. However, his old illness relapsed, and his throat seemed to be filled with sand. He was so uncomfortable that he coughed violently and couldn't explain clearly.
From what he meant, Poinsettia seemed to have known herself before.
He didn't want to continue listening to Yue Shenchen coughing, so he simply said on his behalf: "Poinsettia plum? That's not necessarily the case. There are so many visitors at Chaoyun Street, so how did you decide that the one with plum blossoms on the sword bag is him?"
"This..." Kou Wufu was stunned and felt that what he said made sense.
"No, you are." Yue Shenchen took a few breaths, and her symptoms were slightly relieved.
Poinsettia's interest was aroused and she waited for him to tell the evidence.
Yue Shenchen breathed a little, raised his head and asked firmly: "Is your sword a three-foot-three-inch eight-petal red plum pattern sword?"
His question was so convincing that Zui Chenxiang couldn't help but smile, his eyes quietly drifting to the poinsettia.
Poinsettia was quite surprised, and he couldn't help but smile: "What you said is indeed true. I am Poinsettia, but how do you know me and my sword?"
Yue Shenchen laughed, even though she was a little sickly and weak, she was still very proud.
Kou Wufu knew that he would definitely be out of breath again, so he said for him: "That happened many years ago..."
"At that time, he and I were still young and didn't understand the rules. The two of us wandered around the world all day long and offended many people. That time, we fell into the little thief's trick. When we were about to burp, you fell from the sky. Three I beat them away twice and saved both of our lives."
"Oh..." Poinsettia tried to remember, but seemed a little unclear.
"Then why do you know his sword so well?" Zui Chenxiang asked from the side.
Yue Shenchen explained: "At that time... when my benefactor was fighting away the bandits, he told them... his three-foot-three-inch eight-petal red plum sword was the only one in the world. Tell them if they want to find it... If you want revenge, look for his sword and don’t hurt innocent people indiscriminately.”
Zui Chenxiang let out a soft "ha" and looked at the poinsettia with a lot of amusement in his eyes.
Poinsettia grinned awkwardly after hearing what he said.
"Now that they have been enlightened by the Wanxiang Zuntan, they are determined to return to the right path. You did a great thing back then." Zui Chenxiang said with a smile.
"Really?" Poinsettia nodded in approval, "That's not bad."
While several people were talking, Fu Yunge listened carefully. Having just heard about the "All-Seeing Altar", he couldn't help but be filled with doubts.
Zui Chenxiang glanced at Fu Yunge and the two people next to him and looked at them for a moment.
Then, he said leisurely: "You haven't come back all night, and you look tired. It seems you have gained something."
Dongfang Shiming and Fu Yunge nodded, and then told everyone their experiences in detail.
During this period, Poinsettia's expression changed from time to time, while Zui Chenxiang secretly glanced at him from time to time, with a half-smile in his eyes.
When the two of them finished speaking, Kou Wufu was the first to slap the table and shout loudly, while Yue Shenchen's expression was also full of surprise that could not be concealed.
Zui Chenxiang and Poinsettia didn't speak, but both of them had a smile on their faces, as if they had not anticipated the news.
"It's not a pity to die for these bandits!" Kouwufu shouted loudly.
"That's true, but who did it, I think deserves attention." Dongfang Shiming lowered his head and said.
Yue Shenchen's character is also cautious and careful, so he agrees with Dongfang Shiming's views.
Fu Yunge did not express his position. He thought of the passerby he bumped into that evening.
Regardless of height, voice, or physique, they are all very similar to the poinsettia in front of me.
Coupled with the coincidence of time, he could almost conclude in his heart that Poinsettia was that expert!
But why doesn't he admit it?
Thinking about it, Fu Yunge slowly cast his gaze on Poinsettia's face.
But when he just wanted to see what Poinsettia's current attitude was, he was surprised. That sharp-edged gaze was actually staring at him quietly as well.
