The man standing behind him answered.
"They're all ordinary disciples from the outer districts. The Shi family brothers, Jiang Yue'er, Cheng Ruofei, and that Lin Xin all joined temporarily. There shouldn't be any changes."
"Where's Ouyang Qing?" Kong Yuhui asked lightly.
"Ouyang Qing took the initiative to join your team this time. I'm afraid he has doubts, or maybe he wants to get a share of the pie." The man whispered.
"Others are simple, mainly Ouyang Qing." Kong Yuhui's mouth turned gloomy, "I can't see through her."
"Young master, don't worry, no matter how powerful she is, can she still escape from our grasp?" The man behind him sneered.
Kong Yuhui nodded.
"No matter what hole cards she has, on the day the mission expires, life and death will depend on their luck... Well, it's getting late, you tell Ade and the others to leave and stay away from the intersection. Don't be found out."
"Understood." The man quickly left behind Kong Yuhui.
Kong Yuhui also got up and straightened his clothes, as if he was about to leave.
Lin Xin hid in the grass at the bottom of the slope, huddled behind a stone tablet, motionless.
From the tone of the other party, it can be seen that Kong Yuhui is not alone this time.
After Kong Yuhui left completely, Lin Xin stayed there for more than ten minutes, the red mist completely dissipated, and it was not until the sky turned pale that he got up and went back to the house vigilantly and quickly.
Carefully returning to the room, he closed the door and quickly scraped off the mud on the soles of his shoes. Only then did I meditate and adjust my breath.
The sky gradually brightened.
There was a creak in the room on the right, as if the door had opened, and then there was the sound of Ouyang Qing's footsteps.
"Sister Ouyang." It seemed to be Cheng Ruofei's voice.
"What's wrong, Junior Sister Cheng?" There was still a trace of laziness in Ouyang Qing's voice.
"Is there any place where we can take a bath near here? I can only wipe my body with water for more than half a month, and my whole body is covered with sweat. Sister Jiang Yue and I can't stand it anymore." Cheng Ruofei asked helplessly.
"Bath... I've been here twice, but there really is a place to take a bath." Ouyang Qing was also a little moved, "I'll take you there later."
"Well, thank you sister."
"You're welcome."
Lin Xin knew that everyone was up, and he still had something to ask Ouyang Qing, so he also got out of bed, combed his long hair casually, opened the door and went out.
Ouyang Qing was in the corridor on the right, wearing an emerald green gown, long-sleeved trousers, still wearing a white veil, holding a long sword upside down in his hand, the sword was not sheathed, and the entire scabbard was light green.
"Junior Brother Lin." Ouyang Qing glanced at Lin Xin and frowned slightly.
"Senior Sister Ouyang, last night..." Lin Xin looked around and lowered his voice, "You told me about the Yinxue Bird last night..." He focused on the word Yinxue. accent.
Ouyang Qing showed doubts.
"Last night? Did I meet you last night? I went to bed after adjusting my pranayama very early."
Lin Xin was slightly taken aback.
"Obviously Ouyang Qing told him last night that the yin and blood energy has the effect of accelerating cultivation, why now..."
He stared carefully at Ouyang Qing's beautiful eyes, and indeed he didn't see anything wrong in the other's eyes, only puzzled.
Maybe she didn't want to mention it at this time. he guessed.
"Really? That may be because I remembered it wrong..." Lin Xin let out a breath and said calmly.
Ouyang Qing still nodded with some doubts, greeted Lin Xin, and went directly to the carriage to fetch water with a wooden basin, ready to go back to the room to wash up.
Lin Xin took out his wooden basin from the carriage, took some water, and went back to his room. After washing up, he came out with water and was about to pour it into the pond.
ah! ! !
Suddenly there was a scream. It seems to belong to Jiang Yue'er.
Lin Xin quickly put down the tub and ran towards the direction of the sound. At the same time, the door of Ouyang Qing's room opened behind him. Ouyang Qing took a few steps, overtook Lin Xin and rushed to the front.
The two turned a corner along the corridor one after the other, and came to Jiang Yuer and Cheng Ruofei's room.
Jiang Yuer was wearing a white dress, her long hair seemed to be only half braided, and she still held a jade hairpin in her hand that hadn't been inserted. But he just stood on the side covering his mouth and yelling.
Cheng Ruofei's face was also pale, looking at the room with the open door, the sword was clenched tightly in his hand, so nervous that he might stab it at any time.
"What's going on!?" Kong Yuhui came from another place and arrived almost at the same time as Lin Xin.
Lin Xin took a few steps to the door of the room and looked inside.
I saw a person lying on the bed inside, Shi Lei, the eldest brother of the Shi family, stood beside him with a blue face, his upper body was cut off by the long sword, and his eyes were fixed on the sleeping person.
**That person was Shi Kun, this twenty-year-old young man was lying on his back at this moment, his own long sword pierced straight through his forehead, and then pierced out from under the bed board.
Shi Kun's eyes remained open all the time.
"Shi Kun...is dead?!" Lin Xin's heart sank.
Kong Yuhui quickly walked up to Shi Kun, with an indescribably gloomy expression on his face, he lifted Shi Kun's clothes on his chest, revealing the skin inside.
There is a clear horizontal wound in it. The bright red wound was like a child's mouth, slightly swollen and turned outward.
"It's been a day since I died!" Kong Yuhui said coldly.
Shi Lei couldn't contain the tears in his eyes, and his lips trembled.
"Yesterday... After I left yesterday morning, I didn't see my brother. I thought he was going out to study. I didn't expect to come together this morning and saw him lying beside me with his head..."
Tears flowed down his face after speaking, his body trembled uncontrollably, and he was very emotional.
"Yesterday morning...." Kong Yuhui's eyes became colder and colder, "The fatal part is the sword wound, but it is not the trace of our red pine swordsmanship...."
"Fellow Daoist, do you think it was my Jin Yuzong disciple who did it?"
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps at the door, and four Taoist priests dressed in Taoist costumes appeared outside the door.
These four people were dressed in white Taoist robes with a golden crescent moon symbol on their chests. They were all plain white, and their long swords were also all white, with a thin golden pattern on the hilt. It looks very well-dressed.
"Fellow Taoists of Jin Yuzong, I never said that you did it. Could it be that you are guilty?" Kong Yuhui looked over coldly, as if he had known the other party was coming.
The headed Taoist priest has a calm face, and his white beard flutters slightly in the wind. At first glance, he looks like a master of Taoism.
"It turned out to be Kong Yuhui, Junior Brother Kong. I didn't expect to see you here again after a farewell last time."
"Senior brother Zhou Jingzhou, my Songlin disciple died here for no apparent reason, and was wounded by your Jin Yuzong sword. You guys have to give an explanation?" Kong Yuhui straightened up, his tone cold.
Shi Lei also gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, and upon hearing this, he immediately turned his head to stare at Jin Yuzong and the others.
"What do you mean? Do you think our Jin Yuzong killed your people?!" Another middle-aged Taoist priest beside Taoist Zhou Jing couldn't help but shouted loudly.
"Is it you, you know." Ouyang Qing also stood up, staring at each other side by side with Kong Yuhui.
Cheng Ruofei, Jiang Yue'er, and Lin Xin Shilei stood behind them, staring at each other coldly.
However, even though Lin Xin made such a gesture, he was always wary of Kong Yuhui in his heart. Judging from the previous conversation in the forest, it seems that Kong Yuhui still has some conspiracy here.
"Everyone came here for the Yinblood Bird. The death of the disciples of your sect was not caused by us..." Zhou Jing said calmly, "Junior Brother Kong, Junior Sister Ouyang, what do you think?"
He asked inexplicably.
Sure enough, there was a slight strangeness in the eyes of Kong Yuhui and Ouyang Qing.
"I don't care, you killed my brother, I want you to pay with your life!!" Shi Lei couldn't bear it any longer, let out a roar, and stabbed Zhou Jing with his long sword.
He shook his hand with the blade of the sword, as if a little white light floated towards Zhou Jing like a flower petal, without any rules at all.
"Yugui swordsmanship? It's a pity that there is only one level of internal strength." Zhou Jing was expressionless, and raised his hand to strike a sword.
With a bang, the side of his sword slapped against the side of the white light petals, making a muffled sound.
Shi Lei let out a muffled snort, and was hit to the right side. Clutching his chest, he wanted to get up again, but he couldn't get up for a while.
Zhou Jing's eyes were slightly closed, and he looked at Kong Yuhui and Ouyang Qing. It was obvious that he was really afraid of these two people.
"I also accepted a bodyguard mission when I came here this time. I brought some ordinary people to pay homage. I also ask fellow sword sects to pay attention. I will also help find out about the murder of your disciple."
Kong Yuhui and Ouyang Qing exchanged glances.
"Then I would like to thank Senior Brother Zhou." Kong Yuhui said, as if both of them were certain that it was unlikely to be Zhou Jing.
Zhou Jing nodded, and left with Jin Yuzong's people. But he didn't go far, but went to another bedroom area of the house. Obviously intending to live here.
Lin Xin watched the other party walk away completely, and felt something was wrong in his heart.
The face I met on the first night, the weird Ouyang Qing I met last night, and Kong Yuhui who seemed to be planning something.
There seems to be a very troublesome conspiracy hidden in it,
He felt as if he was involved in something troublesome.
"Junior Brother Shi Kun was brutally murdered, we are also very sorry, but it will never be done by members of the Jin Yuzong. Junior Brother Shi Lei, condolences." Kong Yuhui shook his head, glanced at Shi Lei who was still on the ground, and walked out of the room.
Cheng Ruofei walked over to comfort Shi Lei softly, while Ouyang Qing stood there thinking.
Jiang Yue'er was still pale, and seemed a little scared.
Lin Xin clenched the hilt of his sword and looked around. Except Jiang Yueer and Cheng Ruofei seemed to have the purest purpose here, everyone else had their own thoughts and it was hard to tell who was the enemy.
Shi Kun is the second level Xiaogui Yuanjue, and he practiced the Hanxing swordsmanship in the sword school, which is stronger than the red pine swordsmanship, so he was killed here without a sound.
"Jiang Yue'er brought her close friends to join this mission purely because she likes and admires Kong Yuhui. Their purpose here is the purest. Maybe they can find an alliance with them."
As soon as this thought came to Lin Xin's mind, he saw Cheng Ruofei get up and look towards him. There was a trace of the same look in his eyes.
How about talking
Lin Xin understood the other person's eyes and nodded slightly.
