Li Bochen carried a knife and asked all the way until he found Nuanshui Lane. He stood at the entrance of the alley and found that although the mansions here were not as tall as Yuqian Street, they were all elegant and small, and they looked like places where the upper class lived.
He didn't walk in immediately, but sorted out the complicated thoughts in his mind.
If Li Ding knows that he is in Zhangcheng these days, but he is fine, it means that Li Ding thinks that the Wujing Mountain incident is over and there is no need to have anything to do with him anymore. If he didn't know, he would have to go find him.
He had thought carefully about what he was going to do in Zhangcheng and Zhangshan before, but now that there was Li Ding who had met him at Wujing Mountain, there were huge loopholes in the plan. He had to talk to Li Ding to know how to deal with it next.
Logically speaking, there is no need for me to fight to the death with them, so this should be no big deal.
If after talking, they realize that the original plan may not be implemented... Anyway, there are already fifty-six thousand nine hundred and seventy-five yuan at the moment. The worst thing is to inform Tao Zhai and run away with the money.
He calmed down, took a deep breath, and walked into the alley.
After a few hundred steps, I walked to the brown wooden door of the mansion at the end of the alley, raised my hand and patted the door knocker.
He didn't use much force, but the door creaked and he opened it a crack. He was already on full alert, but when he saw the door suddenly opened, he subconsciously stepped aside, reached out and grasped the handle of the knife.
After waiting for a while, no one came out or spoke, so he reached out and pushed the door open a little further and looked inside.
It turns out that the layout of Li's house is different from that of Tao's house, much smaller. Entering the door is a large courtyard with shallow pools, flowing water, rockeries, stone wells, and small wooden bridges. The main house is also in ancient style, with a large verandah. There are low railings on the corridor. Behind the railings is a small clay stove for making tea, and there are three futons beside it.
But there was no charcoal fire in the clay oven, and the doors and windows of the main room were closed, as if the owner was not here.
The door was unlocked, so it didn't look like he had gone out temporarily. Could it be that... yesterday I lied that I had traced Li Guo's rebels to Shuxue, so the people in the government took action and scared Li Ding and Li Qiuhu away?
If this is the case, I wonder if the two of them have revealed their true identities. But Li Bochen also realized that what Li Ding and Li Qiuhu only knew was that he was the commander of the rushing camp in Wuliang City. If they really said it, what could the two sides do? On the contrary, it confirmed his identity.
At this time, I suddenly heard a faint "boom" sound coming from the courtyard. He was stunned for a moment, and he really couldn't tell what the sound was coming from or how it came out.
He hesitated in front of the door for a moment, then took out the knife on his back and walked in.
After walking four or five steps into the hospital, I heard nothing more. I don't know if it's because I'm nervous, but I feel like it's not as cold in the yard as outside. He was slightly startled when he thought of this section. Because the streets elsewhere in Zhangcheng were covered with residual snow, but the corners of the courtyard and the foot of the mountain were slightly moist, as if the snow had melted or someone had poured water on it.
What can be done by pouring wall corners and rocks? He couldn't help but look sideways at the door. But when I saw it, I was shocked - the door was gone, and there was only a white wall behind it!
He secretly thought that he had fallen into a trap, and immediately recited a mantra secretly to call out the evil soldiers in Yaohou, and said in a deep voice: "There is no malicious intention, I just came to ask a few questions, why should my friend hide?"
He didn't know if Li Ding and Li Qiuhu had set up a formation in the courtyard or if someone from the government office was waiting, so he spoke ambiguously. But after waiting for a while, there was still no answer, so he slowly backed away from the wall, trying to see if he could jump out of the wall.
But just as his legs were about to exert force, he suddenly saw a black shadow flying from outside the wall. He was originally on full alert, but when he saw the black figure leaping in, he raised his knife and struck without thinking.
But the moment the knife struck out, the black figure was clearly seen - it was a person!
However, he struck out with such force that it was too late to retract the sword. The figure was hitting his blade, and there was even a look of panic on his face. His chest was suddenly broken open and he was cut to the ground.
Li Bochen was stunned for a moment, and before he had time to avoid the blood spurting from his chest, his face was drenched.
Just as he was about to be in a daze, he saw two figures flying from outside the wall. He quickly put away his knife and jumped back two steps. The two people fell in front of him, both of them were so dazed that they couldn't even hum. . When one of them reluctantly raised his face, he saw that it was Fang Yu!
These two, plus the one he accidentally killed before, were sent by the Fu Zhi Yamen to keep an eye on him, and he recognized them in the morning. His heart trembled, and he wiped his face and shouted: "Fang Yu, who made you—"
"It's me." A figure jumped up on the wall, his voice was smiling, "You brought these three people to my house, are you really tracking us down?"
Li Bochen then saw Li Qiuhu. She stood on the wall, wearing a black outfit, holding a single sword in her hand, and a smile on her face. The last time I saw her, she had simply put her hair into a bun, but now she only tied her hair up, exposing her slender neck. Her skin was originally so white that it was almost transparent, but now that it was set off by black clothes, it looked even more brilliant.
Talking to her at this time might lead to betrayal. Li Boxen's heart sank and he said, "I'm here..."
But before he finished speaking, Li Qiuhu jumped down from the wall, thrust the steel knife in his palm, and nailed the other man to the ground. He raised his eyes and looked at him: "What are you doing?"
As she spoke, she pulled out the knife and went to kill Fang Yu again.
Li Bochen immediately shouted: "Slow down!"
A sneer appeared on Li Qiuhu's face: "Oh, it looks like you are indeed in the same group. Just in time, let's compete again!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she kicked Fang Bao unconscious with a flying kick. With the power of this kick, his figure floated up like a willow leaf, and he slashed at him with his sword.
A yin fire arose in Li Bochen's heart. When she met her at Wujing Mountain, she had wanted to let herself go, but she only felt that she was genuine. But now I see her killing people without blinking an eye, just like slaughtering chickens and dogs. This "true temperament" is too extreme.
The people who want Linxijun are such murderous people, it would be better if they were wiped out long ago!
He gritted his teeth and raised his knife.
There was a clang, the two blades intersected, and sparks flew everywhere. Li Qiuhu smiled and shouted: "Okay, your strength hasn't weakened yet, try again!"
She took advantage of the blow and took a step back, but then raised her sword and struck again. Although the knife in Li Bochen's hand is suitable for use, it is a new one after all, and he is not yet familiar with it. However, Li Qiuhu's single sword swing was lighter and faster than his own. When the second sword struck, he had to stand up his sword and strike it vertically. Then he felt a strong force coming from him, telling him to step back. Half a step forward.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the door of the main room open, and Li Ding walked out with his hands behind his back.
