C682 Brothers Follow Me

No matter what, Du Qi thought he should find out the truth about Hong Lingyue's murder, not for any other reason but to give the deceased an explanation. However, he did not know where to start, so he could only say, "Please tell me what to do, brother!"

Mei Xiaotian said with satisfaction, "Thank you for your help, brother. It's just that Fourth Younger Brother has been killed for nearly a year. It is not easy to find the murderer and find out the truth, so there is no hurry. If brother has something to do, you can take care of it first."

Hearing this, Du Qi could not help but feel pain in his heart. He quickly said, "The matter of revenge for Hero Hong cannot be delayed, please instruct me. Before he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "May I ask, Big Brother, when is it now?"

Mei Xiaotian felt a little strange and said, "September 23rd, don't you remember?"

When he was talking just now, Du Qi suddenly remembered what his master Lin Wantang had said. Every year, Chongyang would meet with his alchemy servant in King Xing's Mansion. Who knew that he had stayed in the water for more than a month. After coming out, he was busy helping Guo Yufang and had actually forgotten about the appointment of his master. Now that he remembered that the time had long passed, Du Qi could only give up. Seeing Mei Xiaotian ask back, he quickly smiled coyly and said, "Big Brother, you are making fun of me. I, Hong Lingyue, only follow Big Brother's orders!"

Mei Xiaotian smiled and said, "Since that is the case, brothers, let's go!"

Although Du Qi did not know where Mei Xiaotian was going, he did not want to ask too much. He could only follow them unhurriedly. He felt slightly uneasy that Mei Xiaotian did not investigate his background. He did not even ask for his name. Could it be that Mei Xiaotian wanted him to pretend to be Hong Lingyue? He wanted to use his strength to find out the truth about Hong Lingyue's death, and then work together to kill him?

If he didn't agree to Mei Xiaotian's request to continue pretending to be Hong Lingyue, would the Mei brothers kill him while he was still injured? Du Qi thought about it for a while, and the answer he got was a definite one. It wasn't hard to tell from where Mei Xiaotian was standing, but Du Qi had decided to follow his brother. That was why he didn't care about the attitude of the Mei brothers just now.

"Fourth Younger Brother, how do you feel? Do you want to find a place to treat your injuries?" In the past two days, Mei Xiaoren had asked him with concern no less than twenty times. Knowing that he was not Hong Lingyue, it was reasonable for Mei Xiaodi to not speak in a sarcastic tone. However, Mei Xiaoren was still as passionate as fire. He opened his mouth and did not leave Fourth Younger Brother. Although Du Qi didn't really care about this title, every time he heard Mei Xiaoren's simple words, Du Qi couldn't help but feel touched. The only trace of doubt and unhappiness in his heart had disappeared. At the same time, it strengthened his determination to help Mei brothers find out the truth about Hong Lingyue's death.

This afternoon, when they had just turned a corner of the mountain, Mei Xiaotian suddenly pointed to a small forest in front of them and said, "Fourth Younger Brother was killed there! I was here at that time, and I saw the murderer looking over here. I hurriedly hid behind this rock, and only then was I not discovered by him. "

This was already a mountainous area. Trees grew on both sides of the road, but the trees where Hong Lingyue was killed were even more dense. The main road seemed to pass through the forest, but through the gaps between the branches and leaves, one could see the winding road ahead. The terrain on both sides of the road was complicated. It was easy to hide his figure and make it easier for him to escape. It was indeed a good place to kill and rob. What Du Qi didn't understand was that it had been nearly a year. Why did Mei Xiaotian still bring them here?

While he was deep in thought, Du Qi heard Mei Xiaotian say, "That day, Fourth Younger Brother left in anger as if he was just casually walking away. He probably didn't know that he would pass by this place. But the murderer seemed to have specially come here to wait for him. At that time, I saw it very clearly. Fourth Younger Brother had just walked to the big tree in front of him when the murderer jumped down from the tree. He cut off Fourth Younger Brother's head with one slash and searched his body. He lifted Fourth Younger Brother's sword, bag, and head and left."

Mei Xiaoren was puzzled." Since the murderer did not fight Fourth Younger Brother, how could big brother be sure that the murderer's martial arts is strong and want to avoid him? "

Mei Xiaotian said," The murderer's movement was as fast as lightning and his blade was sharp. Although the murderer only made one slash, he only made one slash. However, I dare to conclude that the murderer's martial arts was definitely not inferior to Jiang Yibo's in the Twelve Evils of Jianghu. At that time, all of us, the Four Swords of Yun Meng, were present, and we were fighting openly and openly. We might not be able to defeat the murderer. Therefore... Fourth Younger Brother's defeat was not unjustified. Don't blame me for being afraid of death. If you want to blame someone, blame us for not having good skills. "

Mei Xiaoren said again," Big brother, do you recognize the murderer? "

Mei Xiaotian said affirmatively, "Although I have never seen the murderer before, and I had a quick glance at him at that time, as long as I see him again, I will definitely recognize him!"

Mei Xiaoren said with doubt, "Brother brought us here. Do you think that the murderer will still appear here?"

Mei Xiaotian said, "The murderer was waiting on the tree early in the morning. After killing, he immediately flew far away. But he did not go along the road, but went into the forest. Obviously, he was very familiar with the terrain to the left. At that time, I was afraid that the murderer would find me. I didn't follow him to check the situation in the forest. Instead, I hastily ran back."

Mei Xiaoren said, "Then should we go to the forest to check the situation now?"

Mei Xiaotian said," I think the murderer must have stayed nearby for a long time. So... We need to find out the truth about Fourth Younger Brother's murder. First, we need to find the murderer. If we want to find the murderer, we can only start from here! From now on, no one is allowed to mention that Fourth Younger Brother has already been killed, because Fourth Younger Brother is right beside us. Let's go!"

A desolate path extended from the forest to the top of the hill. Mei Xiaotian and the other three walked along the path. They could only see the dense branches and leaves of the trees. They climbed up the hill and looked forward. They saw a list of mountains in front of them, and between the trees, there were two or three small farm courtyards. There was a quiet and detailed atmosphere, and there was nothing unusual about it. The four of them could not help but be disappointed. Mei Xiaotian seemed to be unwilling to give up and said, "Let's walk forward and take a look!"

The hill they were on was not high. They could see the winding paths leading to the foot of the hill at a glance. It was obviously not meaningful to continue walking. Just as Mei Xiaodi was about to suggest returning to the main road, he saw a corner of the gray roof on the left side of the forest, and he could not help but feel happy. He quickly called for everyone to run over.

The four of them came closer and saw that it was an abandoned small Taoist temple. There was only a decrepit tile house with weeds growing in front and behind it. The wooden door seemed to have been smashed into countless pieces and scattered in the grass and the hall. There seemed to be nothing in the hall. The Three Clarities Statue was in a mess, and the dust on the ground seemed to be moving erratically. It gave off an ancient smell, indicating that no one had come for a long time. Seeing this, Mei Xiaoren couldn't help but mutter, "What kind of Ming Tang can you tell from this?"

Du Qi said, "There was once someone who fought with all his might here!"
