"You know Qiuxiang..." I asked Cheng Haoyang, "Where is she now?"
Cheng Haoyang looked at me and said, "Don't get excited, kid. After that woman killed Zhou Miao's family, she had to leave in a hurry. She told me to come to Chengdu to find a man named Wu Jiu for help if Zhou Miao wanted revenge. Otherwise, do you think I would run all the way from Xiangxi to Chengdu? It would be much better if I flew abroad directly. But after I came here, I didn't find that Yin and Yang master named Wu Jiu, and I kept hiding until I saw you today."
"How do you know my name is Wu Jiu? I don't think I've told you my name yet." As soon as I asked Cheng Haoyang, he said, "Don't you know that the Public Security Bureau has your information? Zhou Miao and I are also members of the paranormal investigation team. Naturally, we have the right to see your information. If I hadn't seen it was you before, you would have been poisoned when you first entered the woods."
I nodded and asked, "Where is Qiuxiang?" Cheng Haoyang said, "I can't tell you now. I'll tell you after you help me."
I held the Emperor's Sword tightly and walked over to help Cheng Haoyang up. Cheng Haoyang asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Go out and kill Zhou Miao." I said subconsciously. Cheng Haoyang shook his head and said, "You idiot, how can you go out now? It's you. Zhou Miao is a suspicious person. Seeing that you haven't gone out for so long, he will probably attack your companions."
I asked, “What should we do now?”
Cheng Haoyang rolled his eyes and said, "You go out first and say you didn't find me, then find a chance to knock Zhou Miao out. This is the safest way."
"Okay." I said and ran out. It was about ten minutes since I entered the grove. When I ran out and passed the cemetery and returned to where Zhou Miao and the others were, Zhou Miao had already stood up, while Wu Zhicong was lying on the ground. I was shocked. It seemed that this guy really had a problem. I didn't dare to expose him directly at the time, so I pretended that I knew nothing and asked Zhou Miao, "Brother Zhou, what happened to Wu Zhicong? How did you get better so quickly?"
Zhou Miao had his hands behind his back, probably preparing to attack me. When I asked him this, he said, "You didn't find Cheng Haoyang in there."
I nodded and said, "I didn't find it. I couldn't even find the roots of the bird feathers. I'm depressed." Zhou Miao smiled and said, "He ran away from here just now, injured Wu Zhicong, and then ran away. At that time, I was afraid that Wu Zhicong would get into trouble, so I left Li to look after him."
This lie was full of loopholes. At the beginning, he was lying on the ground because of the poison. Even if Cheng Haoyang rushed out, it would be him lying on the ground. It didn't make sense for Wu Zhicong to lie down. Moreover, Zhou Miao was seriously injured at the beginning, but he was fine in such a short time. I sneered in my heart. If I didn't believe Cheng Haoyang's words at the beginning, I believed it now after seeing the old man's look. But I didn't expose him. I just said, "What a pity."
Zhou Miao nodded. I thought Zhou Miao was not going to attack me yet, so I squatted down to see if Wu Zhicong was okay. I didn't expect Zhou Miao to kick me as soon as I squatted down. I was not prepared at the beginning, so the kick hit me in the chest. Don't look at Zhou Miao's short and fat appearance, but this kick was really fierce. It caused a sharp pain in my chest and almost made me faint. I gritted my teeth and cursed, "What the hell do you mean by paralysis?"
Zhou Miao sneered and said, "It's meaningless. You should have seen Cheng Haoyang. He told you everything."
"What did you say?" I asked, pretending not to know. Zhou Miao said, "Stop pretending. Just now, when you came out and saw your friend injured and Cheng Haoyang ran away, you were not surprised at all. I can tell at a glance that you are up to something."
I knew it was useless to pretend, so I yelled at Zhou Miao, "Stop pretending, you bastard. If there's a ghost, then you're the one. You're trying to trick us into coming and attacking us. Fuck you." I was ready to stand up and fight this bastard for 300 rounds, but I felt so limp that I couldn't use any strength. I tried to stand up, but it was no use.
Zhou Miao looked at me and said, "You've been poisoned by my soft poison. You have no strength at all. Let's see what you can do to fight me." As he said that, a dagger appeared in Zhou Miao's hand. I secretly groaned in my heart. I felt so regretful looking at this fat guy Zhou Miao. At the same time, I was cursing myself in my heart for believing this guy so easily. I am good in everything except that I am not very scheming.
Zhou Miao also walked towards me step by step. I looked at the dagger in his hand that was still flashing with cold light and said to him, "Calm down, you bastard. There is no use in killing me since we have no grudges against each other. Besides, killing someone is against the law."
"You grandson, you want to kill me, right? Today I'm going to castrate you. At most I'll be charged with assault or something like that."
…
"Brother, you'd better kill me..."
"Then I will do as you wish and send you to the underworld to see the King of Hell." Zhou Miao was already standing in front of me after he finished speaking, and then he raised the dagger and stabbed me. I also closed my eyes. It would be unfair if I died like this, but many troubles would be gone. However, I closed my eyes for a long time and did not feel any pain. I slowly opened my eyes and saw an extremely bloody scene.
I don't know when Wu Zhicong rushed in front of me, and Zhou Miao's dagger stabbed into his chest. Wu Zhicong turned his head to look at me, as if he wanted to say a lot of things, but he was not like the supporting characters in those TV dramas who were stabbed several times and had to say their last words for several minutes before dying. Wu Zhicong looked at me and fell straight down.
My head exploded with a bang, and I stood up immediately, then punched Zhou Miao in the jaw. It was like what I saw on TV or in comics, where the protagonist was abused, and then suddenly became powerful due to stimulation. I always thought it was fake, but when it really happened to me, I realized that anger can really make you more powerful than usual. At that time, I punched Zhou Miao back two meters. Zhou Miao didn't seem to expect that I would suddenly jump up. He spit out blood with a few teeth in it.
"Good boy, I must kill you today." Zhou Miao looked at me with cold eyes, but I didn't have the heart to fight with him at that time. I turned around and felt Wu Zhicong's pulse. Fortunately, although the pulse was very weak, he was not dead. But he had to be sent to the hospital quickly.
