C11

The three of them were about to argue when their vision blurred. With a flash of white, River City appeared beside them.

Seeing that Jiang Cheng was safe and sound, Xiao Lan heaved a long sigh of relief and pouted, "Has Big Bro Jiang seen enough?" It was obvious that they were complaining about River City.

Jiang Cheng looked at her worried face and felt his heart warm up. "That scene was really eerie. It didn't look good at all." Liu'er thought about what the two men had said and could not help but shiver. "It's not pretty, so why did you have to look at it for so long?" His tone was not like Xiao Lan's. Although he had his own complaints, there were also traces of worry and desolation mixed within.

He also wanted someone to worry about, but since he could remember, he was the only one who worried.

Jiang Cheng didn't know that he had been inside for such a long time. He said apologetically, "I shouldn't have made you worry. I'm trying to kill someone!"

Liu'er and Xiao Lan were shocked, "Murder?" Liu'er's eyes swept across Jiang Cheng's body, and she saw that there were no bloodstains on his body. It was obvious that he wasn't hurt, so she was a little worried. However, they were outside the door and did not hear any sounds of fighting. Their confusion gradually increased as they asked, "Did Big Bro Jiang find the culprit?" Have you already killed him? " Since he wasn't injured, then it must be someone else.

Jiang Cheng looked more and more solemn as he said, "I am killing people, but the ones I am killing are the dead." But even if they are dead, I can't kill them. "

Liu'er was confused. She started babbling when she saw River City coming out of the courtyard. It was just as her teacher had said, but it was hard to say if there was a vengeful spirit inside. Worried, he asked, "Has Big Bro Jiang been possessed?" Master, was he shocked by the monsters in the courtyard to the point of spouting nonsense? "

Liu'er looked nervously at Daoist Master Xu. Before Daoist Master Xu could answer, Xiao Lan asked, "Brother Jiang, do you want to use the murderer's method to kill me again?"

Liu'er thought about River City being possessed by ghosts and did not understand Xiao Lan's words, so she asked, "What do you mean? Why do we have to kill it again? Kill who again? "

Xiao Lan rolled her eyes at him in disdain, and said, "You are indeed too stupid. "Big Bro Jiang is sparring with the culprit."

Liu'er was even more surprised, "So the murderer is really in there! It seems like Big Bro Jiang has already killed him. Initially, I was worried that someone would set them up, but now … " But after thinking for a while, he asked worriedly, "Since the culprit is inside, why didn't Big Bro Jiang capture him alive?" Wouldn't it be death without a witness if we just kill him like that? "

"Aiya! "Why are you so stupid!" Xiao Lan patted Liu'er, and said while shaking her head, "The murderer is not in there! "Brother Jiang is the one who killed the twelve Qiao Clan members who died long ago!" Then he looked at the increasingly confused Liu'er and explained, "Their corpses have never been moved, which means that their current appearance is the same as when the murderer killed them. "Since the killer is able to kill them, Big Bro Jiang will definitely be able to do the same."

River City shook his head and said, "I can't kill him."

Liu'er finally understood what River City was doing and also understood River City's worries. Since he couldn't kill the Qiao Family's population like the killer, it meant that the killer's martial arts skills were higher than River City's!

Daoist Xu was right. River City was indeed a newcomer, but even so, his martial arts was enough to dominate the martial arts world.

However, he was defeated in Yi City!

Not only that, there was also a high chance that this person was an enemy of the Immortal Crocodile clan.

There shouldn't be any enemies in the Immortal Crocodile Manor, but the martial arts world was always like this. No matter if you did good or evil, there would always be people who treated you as their enemy.

Who doesn't talk about people behind their backs? Who was the one behind it?

Xiao Lan frowned, she thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "It doesn't make sense! His martial arts were so powerful, why did he need to kill someone unrelated to blame? "If he truly has a grudge with us, the Immortal Crocodile clan, he could use his power to slaughter us. Why is this unnecessary?"

Jiang Cheng also could not understand this question, and said: "Maybe the wall poem wasn't written by the killer." Seeing that it was late, he said to the three: "Let's go back to the house and talk as we go." The little girl is so smart, I don't even know if she could guess a thing or two. " The three of them replied and followed her. Xiao Lan was the closest, afraid that she would be followed if she heard something.

At some point, snow had begun to fall from the sky again, falling in silent patches. It was as if the snow was trying to bury everything that was shameful on the ground.

At this time, River City no longer had the mood to appreciate the snow.

He should not have wrinkles at his age, but today his wrinkles were abnormally large.

He wasn't worried that his enemies would come, but he was worried about why they had enemies.

To him, having enemies meant that he was not doing well, and he just so happened to be a person who pursued perfection with all his might.

As River City was deep in thought, Liu'er and the Daoist Priest followed behind. Neither of them asked anything. Liu'er was worried that he would cause more trouble in River City, while Daoist Zhen was afraid that he would cause trouble if he were to ask.

Xiao Lan wanted to share the worries of River City and asked, "Why did those people die in such a strange manner? "What method did the killer use?"

Jiang Cheng sighed and said, "It was the killer who pressed the laughing point and cut their throats off quickly! Therefore, their smiles have not disappeared, but their eyes are filled with terror! "

Liu'er could not help but think back to the scene in the courtyard and could not help but shiver. "Could it be that this murderer is a madman? Why are you tormenting me like this? "

No one could answer his question. No one was that madman.

Their footsteps were no longer light. They left deep footprints in the snow, as if everyone was dragging a large rock. Xiao Lan put her hand on her round face, and with a trace of worry on her face, she said, "The two uncles Bai Wen and Bai Wu said that all twelve deaths are the same. Could it be that the culprit's skills are truly unfathomable?"

Although Liu'er didn't kill anyone, she had heard quite a few stories about people after her months of travelling. She said, "With Big Bro Jiang's martial arts skills, killing twelve people is as easy as flipping his palm. If he said he couldn't kill him, then it must be because the murderer's methods were too brutal. Big Bro Jiang couldn't bear to do so. "I can't be sure that the killer's skills are better than Big Bro Jiang's."

Xiao Lan was slightly happy to see him so focused on Big Bro Jiang, but she still shook her head and said, "Even if you don't know, you can't blame your stupidity. It would not be difficult to kill twelve people. However, everyone had died in a different way, and they were all killed after being hit by an acupoint. This was not that simple. "Think about it, if one of them was killed, the rest would have to flee in panic. The scene was extremely chaotic, that person could hit his acupoints in such a situation, his martial arts must be extremely high!"

Jiang Cheng sighed, "I've tried eleven times, but none of them was possible!"

However, that murderer only used one time!

Liu'er finally understood River City's worries and could not help but start to worry. She consoled him, "Maybe, he just has a grudge with the Qiao family."

Xiao Lan said, "Since we can't figure it out, then let's think of another way to try. The wall poem didn't seem to be written by the murderer. Let's assume that the murderer and the inscriptionist were not the same person, and that the murderer only had grudges with the Qiao family, and was not an enemy of our Immortal Crocodile Manor. Then our only enemy is the inscriptionist, but who is he? "Why are we going to the Qiao family?"

Liu'er knew from the bottom of her heart that the assassin with such high martial arts skills had already caused River City to become troubled, so she consoled him, "Maybe it's because he wants to catch the medicine. Wasn't the Qiao Family Manor a medicine store? That person went to the medicine store to get the medicine, I don't know if I'll be able to see it. "

Xiao Lan shook her head and said, "If you were sick and went to get the medicine, would the people who saw the entire courtyard full of corpses think of writing poems to frame others?" Liu'er thought about it and shook her head.

Xiao Lan continued, "In other words, he had already thought about killing and framing us. He just went there too late and someone was killed! So he only left behind the blood poem! "

Liu'er heard this and was surprised, "Then why did he choose the Qiao Family? Could it be that the Qiao Family is related to the Immortal Crocodile Manor? Was he trying to set an example? "

Although River City walked very slowly, it was exceptionally calm. He almost put the stone that was pressing down on his heart above his feet. Every step he took, he would deeply step into the snow. Hearing Liu'er's question, he paused and thought for a while before saying to himself, "Why did he choose the Qiao Family? "Why?"

"Perhaps the Qiao Family has some prestige in Yi Zhou City. Since he wants to frame the Immortal Crocodile clan and cause public outrage, it would be reasonable for him to pick someone with a higher prestige."

Jiang Cheng said, "Perhaps this poem is a signal from the author of the poem! He probably wanted someone to see it, and this person was definitely related to the Qiao family! This person will only appear if you kill a Qiao Family member! "

The Daoist man did not answer and instead said, "If you want to know who is related to the Qiao family, you better ask someone else. However, there are many strange things about this and even if you ask, no one will be willing to tell you. But now that so many people had died, there would definitely be a lot of private discussions. If not, let them pry. "

No one would be wary of two children, and it would be most appropriate for them to inquire about them.

Jiang Cheng heard the Daoist Master's words and his brows furrowed. He nodded his head in gratitude and said to Xiao Lan, "It's already late, we can't go tomorrow."
