Anecdote of sword three crossing the bureau

When Chu Liuxiang came back, Tang Ziqi was still sitting at the table, and the well-dressed man turned his head immediately when he heard Chu Liuxiang's soft knock on the door.

The oil lamp has been extinguished, but there is only one small candle left, which looks drowsy and has a special charm.

Chu Liuxiang was slightly taken aback, but finally raised the corners of her lips: "Haven't you slept yet?"

... Tang Ziqi really couldn't say "I'm waiting for you". After all, no matter how low his EQ is, he knew that this sentence was very ambiguous, so he just frowned and replied concisely: "Yes."

Tang Ziqi saw Chu Liuxiang approaching, the dim lights covered Chu Liuxiang's face with a misty gentle expression, he pulled a wooden rattan chair beside him and sat down: "Brother Tang, is there something wrong?"

It's something, but... Tang Ziqi really didn't know which one to start with. Whether it was the failure to detoxify or the secret talk of the old monk Qianshi, he felt a little panicked. Qi Qi just calmly picked one thing that had nothing to do with the two of them and said: "The waiter died."

Chu Liuxiang's hand holding the teacup suddenly stopped, and then sighed: "We never looked for him, but he was killed by someone else."

Tang Ziqi raised his eyelids and glanced at him, the expression in his eyes was a little subtle, he tightened his hand holding the cup and asked in a low voice, "Brother Chu, don't you suspect that I did it?"

Chu Liuxiang didn't smile, stretched out and fiddled with the oil lamp lightly, he looked at Tang Ziqi with firm eyes: "I believe Brother Tang."

After staring silently at the person in front of him for a while, Tang Ziqi's expression finally showed a little looseness: "Thank you."

"If you can't sleep, go out for a walk?" Chu Liuxiang asked with a smile.

Tang Ziqi thought for a while and then nodded: "Yes, the body of the waiter should still be in the dark alley next to the Shuyun Inn."

So Chu Liuxiang elongated her voice pointingly: "Oh, Shuyun Inn..."

Isn't that the place where Chu Liuxiang talked with the old monk Qianshi? Tang Ziqi suddenly felt that everything he did was seen by the people in front of him, and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment. It's too similar to let it go.

However, these small actions may not be able to hide from others, but they will never be able to hide from Xia Tan Chu Liuxiang.

Chu Liuxiang didn't point it out, he just deepened the arc of his smile, and then said, "Go and see?"

Tang Ziqi continued to nod his head expressionlessly.

What they were looking for was the corpse of the waiter. In fact, when Tang Ziqi found out that he had been poisoned, his first thought was to catch the waiter. Unfortunately, that little guy ran so fast at that time. With Tang Ziqi's vigilance, he couldn't catch anyone after all.

Regret is always the most useless emotion, so Tang Ziqi didn't think too much about it.

It's just that when Tang Ziqi happened to see the shop waiter die in that secluded alley, he just felt a chill in his heart, and the first thought that popped up was to worry about Chu Liuxiang's reaction.

It has to be said that Tang Ziqi was taken aback by his own weird brain circuit.

The ring trembled slightly, and it seemed to be a new task: "Congratulations to the knight for starting the main task - investigating the mystery of the death of Xiao Er in the shop. Task rewards: Qingrong Hundred Flowers Bag*1, Li Feisha*1, Mysterious Mission Item*1."

So at least sometimes, the system is still useful.

Tang Ziqi thought silently, while being a little curious, Li Feisha ran faster than Chu Liuxiang's Floating Clouds.

"When brother Tang got there, the shop boy's body was already there?" Chu Liuxiang's voice broke the silence between the two.

Tang Ziqi withdrew his confused thoughts, thought for a while and said calmly: "It's probably because Brother Chu left for less than a stick of incense."

Turning a corner, he came to the alley that Tang Ziqi had mentioned just now. In the deserted alley, the corpse had long since disappeared. Instead, there was a red leaf lying alone on the ground where the corpse had been just now.

Tang Ziqi's expression changed in horror, he walked over and took a look at the red leaf through the veil, and said, "I probably know this killer."

"Oh?" Chu Liuxiang was a little surprised, took a look at Hongye and said, "From Xiaofengtang?"

Tang Ziqi nodded without concealing it, and said immediately: "Although the habit of Xiaofengtang is to leave red leaves after killing people, it seems that there is no difference, but the different branches are still different..."

Tang Ziqi hadn't finished speaking when he heard a low laugh from mid-air, the laughter was carried over by the sound of the wind, it was obvious that the person who came came had a lot of internal energy, the person was hiding his breath on the eaves, and he was not caught by the two of them. Noticing anything, it was obvious that his strength was good, the man said coldly: "Tang Ziqi, you really don't care about Xiangshuai."

Chu Liuxiang's face changed slightly, it had been a long time since anyone could hide under the eyes of the bandit commander Chu Liuxiang, so he stopped laughing and asked loudly: "Who is your Excellency, why should you avoid seeing him?"

The man didn't want to hide himself this time, as he swiped down from the tree, and then laughed wantonly, and said in a dark voice: "Heh... what Xiangshuai said is interesting, the killer just wants to hide in the dark Among them, they are called killers, aren't they?"

"Hold your breath!" Before the person hidden in the darkness finished speaking, Tang Ziqi heard Chu Liuxiang drink in a low voice, and immediately stopped breathing until Chu Liuxiang said again: "Your Excellency is from Xiaofengtang?"

The man lost his voice again after failing to strike, hiding in the darkness like a night wolf waiting for an opportunity, Tang Ziqi quickly passed through the people in the second hall of Xiaofengtang in his mind, in fact they They seldom communicate with each other, and only meet once in a while when they are found by the tooth knife.

Tang Ziqi really didn't have any impression of this person.

Even if Tang Ziqi didn't know what Jianghu was, at least he understood one thing, that is, they are too passive now.

He turned his head slightly to look at Chu Liuxiang, and Chu Liuxiang pressed his finger on his lips, signaling Tang Ziqi not to act rashly.So Tang Ziqi slowly put the thousand receivers that had been lifted back to the original place.

I don't know how long it took, it was about a stick of incense, and finally only Tang Ziqi's slight breathing could be heard in the silent darkness, and Chu Liuxiang sighed: "It seems that he escaped."

Tang Ziqi couldn't help being a little surprised that someone could escape in front of Chu Liuxiang?

Even if Tang Ziqi didn't know martial arts at all, he still knew that Chu Liuxiang looked gentle and approachable, but in fact his kung fu was probably excellent.

He has also heard many rumors about Chu Liuxiang these days, and the most classic sentence is probably "The wild goose and butterfly are wings, and the fragrance of flowers fills the world".After thinking about it, he couldn't figure out why someone could escape from Chu Liuxiang's presence.

Seeing Tang Ziqi's expression, Chu Liuxiang laughed and said, "Let's go, I'm afraid I won't come back if I wait any longer."

Tang Ziqi was silent all the way, the task must have not been completed, but what made him more concerned was——

"I was just wondering, how did he know my name?"

Chu Liuxiang was slightly taken aback. As an outsider, although he didn't know the internal affairs of Xiaofengtang, killers often didn't want to interact with each other.So this time, he chose to remain silent.

When the two returned to the room, Nan Yun was already dreaming soundly.The little child nestled in the innermost part of the bed, shrunk into a small ball.Chu Liuxiang smiled, pulled the quilt up to his chin, and then lowered the bed curtain.

Tang Ziqi still wasn't tired at all, the two of them looked at each other and sat down at the table, and lit the dim candlelight again to sit and talk at night.

"I can't figure out a few things about this time." Chu Liuxiang first broke the silence, and took a piece of rice paper to write and draw on it: "First of all, it's the shop boy, why did he want to kill you?"

Tang Ziqi looked at Chu Liuxiang's writing in silence, and had to say that Chu Liuxiang's handwriting was beautiful, and Tang Ziqi suddenly remembered that the sentence "like a person's handwriting is really appropriate now."Chu Liuxiang's words are flowing and flowing without any delay, and every stroke is faintly full of atmosphere.

When he came back to his senses, Tang Ziqi frowned and said, "Besides, that's a child." He never thought that any organization dared to use such a young child as a killer. After all, if the age is too young, there are too many variables.

Hearing this, Chu Liuxiang shook his head: "You should have heard that there is a strange kung fu called bone shrinking skill in the Jianghu. This kung fu originated in Shaolin, but Shaolin is a famous and decent school. Unless the disciple defected, no one would use this kung fu. Harm..."

After Chu Liuxiang finished speaking, she felt that she had made a slip of the tongue, and raised her eyes to look at Tang Ziqi. Tang Ziqi was still listening calmly. When he saw him pause, he asked, "Then this should have nothing to do with Shaolin?"

"Well," Chu Liuxiang poured a small cup of warm wine for Tang Ziqi, then poured a cup for himself, and continued to analyze: "The old monk Qianshi told me something today."

Tang Ziqi's hand holding the wine glass paused silently, and then calmly replied, "Oh?"

Chu Liuxiang's posture of holding the wine glass was as elegant and casual as everyone else's. After taking a sip, he squinted his eyes and said, "He said that he saw Guai Xiangzi in Andingwei when he was traveling all the way."

An Dingwei, it was actually only an hour's work away from the Sari Uur where they were. Tang Ziqi remembered the blueprints he had seen before, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's very close."

Chu Liuxiang nodded silently, and frowned slightly: "There must be a mystery in it."

Tang Ziqi asked very calmly: "What's wrong with Wei Xiangzi?" He only remembered that that person was one of the "Four Monsters of Tianshan" and his name was written in the brochure of Beilaofang.

Only then did Chu Liuxiang realize that the person in front of him didn't know Guai Xiangzi, so he laughed and said, "That's the one who met me in the teahouse. You should remember that he disappeared at Lao Lin's coffin shop before."

Tang Ziqi naturally remembered that it was the second time they met. At that time, he didn't know that the person in front of him was Xiangshuai Chu Liuxiang.

There are so many coincidences or accidents in life, but meeting the right person at the right time is the greatest joy in life.
