Duan Ping does not think he is a timid person, but when he thinks of Yu Dahong's stiff and lifeless body living in a yard, he always feels that his room is too empty and quiet, and the sound of the wind outside seems to be someone Crying, the cold wind came into the house from nowhere, and when the curtain moved, he turned his head suspiciously, feeling as if someone was walking in the house. The feeling of cold wind blowing on the back of the neck is even more...
Whoever blows it knows!
Duan Ping couldn't sit still, feeling anxious.
Or, find someone to accompany you tonight, and deal with it overnight
But if he really went, would his classmates say that he was a coward
Duan Ping was a bit in a dilemma, restless.
A voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Junior Brother Duan? Junior Brother Duan?"
Duan Ping was startled by the sudden human voice like a frightened bird. After listening carefully, I could tell it was Tong Hao's voice.
"Senior Brother Tong, what's the matter?"
Normally, Duan Ping would definitely open the door and ask him to come in and talk, but today's matter... can't be said to be Tong Hao's fault, but he can't be said to be right either.
"It's okay..."
Tong Hao hesitated outside.
At this moment, Duan Ping suddenly and rarely understood Tong Hao's intention.
He was so frightened that he was fidgeting, Tong Hao was the one who actually met and talked with Chen Jingzhi today, and he was almost killed by Chen Jingzhi. Can he not be afraid? He must be more afraid than Duan Ping.
When he came to find Duan Ping, he probably thought that two people would be safer than one, and that even if they couldn't help each other, they could be more courageous.
Duan Ping had guessed his reason for coming, but he didn't want him to come in.
It doesn't matter if you say you are timid... Anyway, he is a little awkward with Tong Hao.
"Oh, I've already rested. If there is something else, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Outside, Tong Hao could only say: "Okay..."
Then there was no more movement.
After leaving Duan Ping, he became even more uneasy, walked around the room twice, picked up a book and went out.
As soon as he went out, the wind outside was pouring down his neck, Duan Ping tightened his skirt a bit, regretting not putting on the cloak.
But now he didn't want to go back to the house to get it.
Duan Ping thought about who he wanted to defect to.
It's fine with the few direct senior brothers, they have to do something, he can't go there to add trouble. As for the others... Brother Zhai Wenhui has a good temper, but with so many things happening recently, Brother Zhai's status will change immediately, and he will become estranged from them.
As for the others, Senior Brother Shao is also considered a generous person, so it shouldn't be difficult to go to him to find a reason to join in for a night.
Duan Ping made up his mind and went to Senior Brother Shao.
As a result, as soon as I got to the door, I heard someone talking in the house.
People in the room also heard footsteps outside, Shao Jinming asked, "Who is it?"
Duan Ping hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Shao, it's me."
Shao Jinming said simply: "Come in." He didn't even ask why he came.
Duan Ping pushed the door and went in, but he was stunned as soon as he entered.
The people gathered in Shao Jinming's room were called Qi... not only Senior Brother Qin and Senior Brother Ou were there, but even Tong Hao, who had gone to him just now, was also in the room.
Seeing that Tong Hao was there, Duan Ping was inevitably a little embarrassed. Just now he said that he had taken a break and shut Tong Hao out, and now the two met unexpectedly again in Brother Shao's room.
"Junior Brother Duan, sit down." Senior Brother Qin beckoned him to sit down, and poured him a cup of hot tea.
As for the fact that there are so many people in Senior Brother Shao's room so late, Duan Ping can guess the reason without much guesswork.
It must be that everyone was not so at ease in their hearts, and felt that it was not safe to be alone, so they all ran to Senior Brother Shao.
Shao Jinming knew very well that these juniors were lacking in courage.
This can't be blamed on them, let's not talk about leaving Huiliu Mountain and going to Beifu City, an unfamiliar place, and encountering such a thing today, they are not very old, so I can't blame them for being afraid.
Duan Ping was a little embarrassed before, but after drinking tea for a while, he gradually relaxed. Without him, because Tong Hao looked more embarrassed than him. After all, Master hasn't said how to deal with his matter today. Maybe he will be punished lightly because he was also deceived, or he may think that he is confused and uneducated, so he will never be heard of again. ask…
To be honest, no matter which disciple he is, if he encounters something like this today, he would rather be severely punished by the master than to really ignore him in the future.
Duan Ping sat cross-legged by the wall, the wind outside was still so loud, but now the room was brightly lit with candles and there were so many people, he was not afraid at all now.
While meditating, he listened intently to what Brother Shao and Brother Ou had to say.
"Chen Jingzhi went after Yun Xiaodong, I didn't hear that they had any grudges..."
"You don't know, do you? After Chen Jingzhi left, Junior Brother Yun lost an important thing. It seems to be a token left by his biological parents. Didn't he find it after searching for a long time? If it wasn't for Chen Jingzhi Hell, what Jingzhi took away. Chen Jingzhi stole such an important thing from him, so he was naturally guilty, and he wanted to kill Xiaodong probably because of this. As long as the original owner of the lost thing is killed, no one will be able to do it again in the future. Trouble him?"
Senior Brother Qin's voice was even deeper: "Speaking of Chen Jingzhi, there was something that happened before, I don't know if you still remember Brother Shao..."
"What's up?"
"There used to be a disciple named Chu Zhen on the mountain, Brother Shao, do you still remember this person?"
"Chu Zhen?" Shao Jinming thought for a while, and then matched the name with the face in his memory: "Oh, Chu Er." Everyone called him that, but he couldn't remember his real name for a while.
"Didn't he die early? Why did you suddenly mention him?"
"At the time it was said that Chu Er fell to his death, I was a little puzzled. Although Chu Er was cunning and did not practice hard, the more he was like this, the more he cherished his life. How could he run out in such a cold day? So that he stumbled and fell to his death?"
"That's true..."
If Qin Wei didn't mention this, Shao Jinming really couldn't think of this person.
But now why did Qin Wei suddenly mention this man who died early
Brother Ou also interjected in a low voice: "In fact, two days before Chu Er's accident, he went to find Chen Jingzhi twice in a row."
Shao Jinming was surprised: "There is such a thing? Why did he go to Chen Jingzhi?"
Ou Haiguang shook his head: "I don't know about that. I just remember the look on his face when he came back... as if he had stolen some treasure. Satisfied."
Because Chu Er is not a likable person, he usually sneaks around, his hands and feet are not very clean, there is no one who likes him in the sect, he died as soon as he died, and he didn't even stir up a wave.
"I didn't think about it at the time, but now that I think about it, Chen Jingzhi's leg was injured for no reason at that time. It's strange how the injury came about. How could Chen Jingzhi talk to someone like Chu Er? Could it be Chu Er?" Two, I knew something that I shouldn't know at that time, and I wanted to get some benefits from Chen Jingzhi... "
After saying this, Duan Ping and Tong Hao, who were on the side, felt chills down their backs.
There are many things that are often overlooked when they happen, but they will suddenly be remembered at some point.
What Brother Ou said was reasonable, Duan Ping felt that this must be the case.
But thinking about it this way, it turned out that Chen Jingzhi had attacked his fellow disciples as early as before he left Huiliu Mountain. This person's scheming and viciousness were beyond everyone's imagination.
"That being said, it's a good thing that this person betrayed us..." Senior Brother Qin shook his head, looking as if he was still in fear: "Otherwise, if you stay with such a person, you really don't know how to die someday. .”
Although Shao Jinming didn't expressly agree with Qin Wei's words, he took it quite seriously in his heart.
"I'll talk to my elder brother about this matter tomorrow. It may not be him who did it, everyone, don't think about it."
When Shao Jinming said that, everyone else agreed.
But everyone already believed in their hearts that Chen Jingzhi did it. Chu Er is also a fool, some advantages can be taken advantage of, and some advantages are not so easy to take advantage of. At that time, he didn't know how he offended Chen Jingzhi, and ended up dying so quietly. If it wasn't for the hunters in the mountains who discovered it by accident, no one would have known that his bones had rotted away.
The atmosphere at breakfast the next day was particularly dignified. Xiaodong always felt that other people were secretly looking at him, but when he looked up, it seemed that everyone's attention was not on him.
Linglong saw Xiaodong's eyes were red and slightly swollen. Not only his eyes, his nose, even the edges of his lips were red and swollen, as if he had cried.
It seemed that he also knew about Yu Dahong's murder. Even if you didn't know about it last night, you have to hear about it this morning.
This child has a sincere heart, and he is afraid that he will feel that Yu Dahong's death has something to do with him.
Linglong felt that this idea was pure nonsense.
Yu Dahong's death was really wronged, Chen Jingzhi came here to kill Xiaodong, and killing Yu Dahong was purely a matter of silence, for fear of leaking the news. Can't put the responsibility for Yu Dahong's killing on Xiaodong's head because of this. According to this calculation, the one who should be blamed the most should be Master and his old man. Who made him accept Chen Jingzhi, a wolf-hearted apprentice? If he hadn't accepted Chen Jingzhi, how could Huiliu Mountain have such a disaster
That's not how it works out.
After breakfast, Linglong clung to Zhai Wenhui, asking what clues they had seen from the dead man who had cut his own heart.
Zhai Wenhui knew that she couldn't sit still, and only wanted to dig out Chen Jingzhi's current background quickly, and then kill him without delay.
The mood is understandable, but...
Zhai Wenhui could only smile wryly: "It's really not that easy to find someone. Besides, even if we find them, Beifu City is not a place where people can be killed casually. Without real evidence, we will only be the ones to blame."
"You can't fight and kill casually? Then they can come and kill us, and we can kill them? What kind of broken rules are there in Beifu City?" (To be continued)
