Chapter 43
Xinye is a famous ancient city in history. During the Three Kingdoms period, there was a legend that Zhuge Liang burned Xinye.
Drawing lessons from last time, Wang Yang planned to find an inn to stay in the city, so as not to sleep in the wilderness again.Entering the city, he led his horse along the streets paved with bluestone slabs, looking left and right, looking for an inn to stay.
It is said that "Yuelai Inn" is the largest chain store in Jianghu, with branches in every city.
It's a pity that along the way, not to mention Yuelai Inn, I haven't seen many other inns, and they are all full.As he continued walking without a clue, he suddenly saw an extremely magnificent and luxurious mansion in front of him.
Just by the vermilion gate and the two mighty stone lions in front of the gate, it is known that it is a rich family.
It was already dark at this time, and the door of this family was still open.Wang Yang didn't pay much attention to it, and when he walked over, he took a casual look and saw pitch-black coffins lying in the yard behind the door.
When many passers-by were about to pass by this family, they immediately quickened their pace, as if avoiding the plague.
A group of local citizens gathered in the far corner, facing the mansion, talking about it.
"The Golden Knife Liu family is considered a powerful family in our Xinye. They often donate money to save people on weekdays, but they did not expect to end up like this. None of the 27 members of the family were left alive, and even the baby who was still in its infancy was killed. This murderer has no humanity at all."
"Hush, keep your voice down, you don't want to live anymore?"
Being reminded, the person who spoke stuck out his tongue, looked around, worried that someone would really hear him, so he did not dare to speak again.
If he doesn't say it, someone else will.Another man sighed: "Mr. Liu treats people generously, and he has never heard of any bad things like bullying men and women. It is really tragic that the whole family was wiped out all at once."
This man was not without scruples, his tone of voice was obviously lowered a lot, for fear of being heard by outsiders.
"Speaking of this incident, I suddenly remembered how I looked like five days ago. When I passed by here, I saw a figure appearing at the door. The man was not a local at first glance, wearing a silver-white mask on his face. It looked very suspicious, so I took another look, and saw his heels lifted, and he climbed over the high wall and disappeared."
Hearing what he said, everyone was immediately interested.
"No, the murder happened only three days ago, the time is wrong."
"I didn't say that this person must be the murderer, but it's still very suspicious that he sneaked over the wall and entered the mansion five days ago. Maybe he was stepping on the spot and didn't do anything until everything was ready."
"It's also possible. However, Mr. Liu is a master of martial arts, and he is very powerful with a golden sword. He has killed many bandits. Even the bandits in Heifengzhai and Peach Blossom Mountain were wiped out by him single-handedly. His three The two sons all have unique skills, and if someone climbs over the wall and enters, it is a bit unreasonable to be vigilant, I am afraid that things are not that simple."
At this time, a dirty little beggar said: "If you want to know, you can ask me."
"you know?"
The beggar smiled and said: "I was really hungry that day, so I went into the Liu family's dog hole and went to the kitchen to steal food, and then I saw the masked man coming in over the wall that the big brother said just now. I also came here to steal food, but who knows that he didn't hide it at all, standing in the yard in a big way."
"and after?"
"Ahem, if you want to hear, please give each of you five cents for dinner."
Everyone was getting excited when they heard it, and their hearts were itching, so they had to take out five cents from their bodies and hand them to the little beggar.The little beggar was so appetizing, he happily took the money, nodded and bowed his head, and said, "Thank you for your rewards." Then he continued to narrate.
"As soon as the masked man came in, the members of the Liu family immediately became alert and came out of the back room one after another."
"Mr. Liu was still very polite. He first bowed his fists and asked the other party's name, but the masked man didn't answer. He only said coldly that he asked Mr. Liu to change his name. When Mr. Liu asked why, the masked man said He didn't like his name, and threatened that if he didn't change it, the whole family would be wiped out in two days, and Mr. Liu's three sons were very angry, so they wanted to do it, but the masked man turned around and jumped over the wall."
When everyone heard it, they were all shocked.
"Forcing someone to change their name, and killing the whole family if they don't change it, this... is too outrageous."
"So, this masked man is indeed a murderer. Ordinarily, with Mr. Liu's martial arts, ordinary people are really no match. Could it be that this masked man has other helpers?"
The little beggar shook his head and said: "There is no helper, only him."
"How do you know he's the only one?"
"Because I was there when the man was killed. After the masked man left, Mr. Liu's family didn't seem to take it seriously, but I thought something would happen, so two days later, I went in through the dog hole again. ..." The little beggar stopped talking immediately after saying this.
"What happened next?" someone asked.
The little beggar grinned and said, "If you still want to know, please do me a favor and give me another ten coins."
"Damn, your uncle, didn't I give you money just now, do you want more? Pay back ten cents."
The little beggar said: "Just now you rewarded what happened five days ago, now I want to talk about what happened in the murder case three days ago, one yard for one yard, guaranteed to be more exciting, do you want to hear it or not? Listen to me tell others."
After speaking, he pretended to leave.
"Here, let's talk about it quickly." Everyone was so curious that they had to reluctantly pay another ten cents.The little beggar happily accepted the money and cleared his throat.
"At that time, I got into the dog hole early to hide. I have no other skills. The only thing I have is that as long as I hide, no one will find me. I chose a place with the best view and lay down without moving. In the middle of the night, the masked man really came. As soon as his feet hit the ground, Mr. Liu and his three sons immediately appeared. It can be seen that they are not really worried about it. The masked man said that since he refused to change his name, Then I had no choice but to start a killing spree, and immediately started to fight. I was so excited when I saw a fierce fighting scene, but unfortunately, our old man Liu didn't seem to be as powerful as he imagined. He shattered the Tianling Gai with one palm, and his three sons were even more miserable because they were stabbed into strings with a single sword."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but "ah", and they seemed very surprised.
Mr. Liu's martial arts are extremely high, and he has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Hearing that he was killed so easily, it is really hard to accept this result.
"To be honest, I was terrified when I saw it, but I didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of being discovered. Later, the masked man killed all the Liu family. After the killing, he didn't Instead of leaving, he hid in a dark corner. I was wondering why he did this, and then, I heard the sound of the door being knocked open, and two middle-aged Quanzhen Taoist priests, a man and a woman, walked in from the outside... "
