A knife in love

Chapter 494

Li Qiufeng saw that these black-clothed killers were so afraid of the Buddha's Tears Sword, and knew something was wrong.He put the long sword across his chest, and said with a sneer, "If you want to fight, you can fight, why should you shrink back?!"

Before he finished speaking, he raised his sword and took another two steps forward, and all the men in black retreated one after another.Zhu Ju had been squeezed to the gate of the mansion at this time, leaning against the gate tightly with his back.Seeing Li Qiufeng approaching, but none of the black-clothed killers dared to fight, he felt ashamed and angry, and shouted: "We have so many people, are we afraid that these two thieves will fail?"

After Zhu Ju finished speaking, seeing that there was still no response, he was furious, and said, "Even if you come to the Central Plains, you peasants, you can't get rid of your cowardly, cowardly, profit-seeking nature!" Immediately beheaded the head of a man in black in front of him.

Although Zhu Ju is only a young man, his martial arts are not weak.But killing the man in black was so easy, but there was another reason.One reason was that the man in black had his back to Zhu Ju, and was fully focused on Li Qiufeng, without any defense against Zhu Ju.Second, although the man in black knew that although Zhu Ju was young, he was always ruthless and beat or scolded anyone in the Liusheng clan who violated his intentions.It's just that he didn't expect that he would kill himself as soon as he said it.The black-clothed killers who came to this house today are all Zhu Ju's confidantes in the Liusheng clan, so everyone thinks that even if Zhu Ju is angry, he will not kill with a sword.It was precisely because the man in black was totally defenseless and he trusted Zhu Ju so much that he was able to kill the man in black with one strike.

Zhu Ju brandished a long sword in his hand and hissed, "This is what happens to those who don't listen to my orders!"

When all the black-clothed killers saw their comrades die tragically under Zhu Ju's sword, their hearts were terrified, and they all felt sad.A moment later, the two men in black jumped up, jumped onto the wall, and then disappeared into the vast night.

The rest of the men in black immediately fled when they saw someone leaving without saying goodbye.Some jumped over the wall, while others pushed open the gate of the yard and ran away.

Seeing that the black-clothed killer under his command ran away in a hurry without his order, Zhu Ju was furious, and stood at the door and yelled at him sharply, but as more and more black-clothed men escaped, he turned from anger to fear, and finally Surrounded by several confidants, he slipped away quietly.In a moment, only Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan, and the bodies of Zhuyue and others were left in the huge courtyard.

Li Qiufeng saw the men in black running away one after another, but he didn't chase after them.He walked slowly to the side of Zhuyue's body, looked at Zhuyue's face, and couldn't help but sighed.

He knew that Zhuyue had been hit by the hidden weapon of Liu Sheng's killers, and her body was covered with poison. If someone accidentally touched her body, they would definitely die of poisoning.So he turned his head and said to Murong Danyan: "Miss Murong, although this girl Zhuyue has nothing to do with murder, she finally repented and saved Li's life. I want to bury her body and put it in the ground for peace. .”

Murong Danyan said: "Brother Li, I heard from my father that Japanese people come from thousands of miles overseas and they advocate cremation. It would be better to light a big fire and cremate her body before burying her."

Li Qiufeng remembered that when Liu Sheng Feiyan was dying that day, he also asked for his cremation, and knew what Murong Danyan said was right.So he nodded, turned his head and looked around, and said in his mouth: "It seems that this is also a secret stronghold of the Liusheng clan. Let's set a fire and burn it, so as not to be used by the Japanese again to harm me. Ming people."

The two of them had made up their minds, so they planned to move the bodies of Zhuyue and other three people into the main hall, and then set fire to burn the house together with the bodies of the three people.It's just that the bodies of the three people were highly poisonous, so Li Qiufeng planned to find some quilts in the main room to wrap the bodies of the three people.He returned the Buddha's Tears Sword to Murong Danyan, picked up a torch from a nearby wooden frame, and strode into the main room.

Unexpectedly, he just walked into the main room, but saw a person lying on the ground.This person turned his back to Li Qiufeng, so he couldn't see his face clearly.But judging from the clothes, it is undoubtedly a woman.

Li Qiufeng was taken aback, but he didn't dare to approach rashly.Seeing two pairs of candlesticks on the table in the middle of the main room, each with a red candle stuck in it, he walked over, intending to light the candles.I just thought about it, this is the secret residence of the Liusheng clan, I'm afraid there are many harmful traps, how can I not poison the candles?So he stopped, turned around and held up a torch to shine on the man on the ground.

When he saw the man's face clearly, he was shocked and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Murong Danyan was guarding the courtyard, when he suddenly heard Li Qiufeng's exclamation in the main hall, his heart trembled, he rushed into the main hall with his sword in his hand, only to see Li Qiufeng staring blankly at the ground lying on the ground with a torch in his hand. a woman.

Murong Danyan saw Li Qiufeng's shocked face, and thought to himself: "Brother Li has always been calm, it's rare to see him like this, why did he turn pale with fright when he saw this woman, could it be that he knows this woman well?"

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but looked at the woman on the ground.Seeing the woman's graceful figure, my heart suddenly moved, and I thought to myself: "The back of this woman is so familiar, it seems like I have seen it somewhere..."

Seeing Murong Danyan walk in, Li Qiufeng calmed down a little, and said to Murong Danyan: "Miss Murong, who do you think this is?"

Murong Danyan bypassed the woman, walked to Li Qiufeng's side, and looked at the woman by the light of the torch in Li Qiufeng's hand.I saw that woman had an oval face, her eyebrows were tightly closed, and her face was worried. She was Ma Dongqing, the daughter of Ma Kongkong.It's just that although she fell to the ground, she could hear her rapid breathing.

Murong Danyan turned pale with shock, and said in a trembling voice: "Yes, it's Sister Ma... She, why did she appear here?"

A few days ago, Li Qiufeng met Xiao Zhanpeng and Ma Dongqing who were looking for Murong Danyan at the foot of Hutou Rock.Later, Ma Dongqing felt unwell, so Xiao Zhanpeng sent her away, and it is said that she stayed in an inn to rest.When Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan parted with Xiao Zhanpeng today, Xiao Zhanpeng also said that he would go to the inn to pick up Ma Dongqing, and then go back to the south of the Yangtze River together, but he didn't expect to meet Ma Dongqing in the secret residence of the Liusheng clan.Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan looked at each other, thinking in their hearts, Ma Dongqing passed out on the ground, but Xiao Zhanpeng was nowhere to be seen, could it be that he has been murdered by Liu Sheng's clan?

Seeing Murong Danyan leaning over to wake Ma Dongqing, Li Qiufeng was afraid that she would fall into the Liusheng clan's tricks, so he hurriedly reached out to stop her, and said, "Miss Murong, be careful!"

Only then did Murong Danyan wake up, but he didn't dare to touch Ma Dongqing's body, and whispered: "Sister Ma, sister Ma, are you alright?"

It's just that she called a dozen times in succession, but Ma Dongqing was still unconscious.Li Qiufeng broke off a small piece of wood from the torch with his right hand, and with a wave of his hand, the small piece of wood flew out and hit the "Tiantu" point under Ma Dongqing's jaw.Ma Dongqing groaned, his eyes opened slowly, and he murmured, "W-Where am I?"

Murong Danyan saw that she was fine and knew she was not poisoned, so he screamed happily, jumped to Ma Dongqing's side, helped her up, and said: "Sister Ma, don't be afraid, we are here to save you! "

Ma Dongqing covered his forehead with his left hand and swayed a few times, as if he might fall down at any time.Fortunately, Murong Danyan supported her tightly, so she didn't fall down.At this moment, she saw clearly that Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were standing in front of her, and her face suddenly showed joy, and she said in a trembling voice: "Sister Murong, Hero Li, you, how did you end up here..."

Murong Danyan smiled and said: "This is a long story. Sister Ma, let me tell you how you got here first? Presumably Xiao Lao Wu was ineffective and let those Japanese thieves take my sister here?"

Ma Dongqing shook his head, and said: "I was caught by these bad guys, it has nothing to do with Xiao Daxia."

Murong Danyan wondered: "It has nothing to do with him? Where did Xiao Lao Wu go? Although this guy's martial arts are ordinary, how could he still miss a few killers?"

Ma Dongqing said: "Daxia Xiao sent me to the inn that day, and then he brought a doctor to see a doctor for me. I saw that he was anxious and knew that he was worried about the safety of Daxia Li and Miss Murong, so I asked him to go back to Hutouyan first. For the next few days, I rested in the inn. Daxia Xiao left a lot of money, so the store took care of me every day. The doctor also came to the inn every day to take my pulse and decoct medicine, so I My illness recovered within two days. But this morning, suddenly two people came to the store, claiming to be sent by Xiao Daxia, saying that they had found Li Daxia and Miss Murong, and wanted to pick me up for a reunion. I didn't think much about it either. Then I followed them out of the inn. Unexpectedly, as soon as I left the town, they were stuffed into a carriage by them and bumped all the way here. They pressed me about the whereabouts of Li Daxia and Miss Murong. I got up, refused to give me food and water, and threatened me that if I did not tell the whereabouts of Daxia Li and Miss Murong, I would starve to death. I was shocked and angry, and I actually passed out..."

She said this with a look of shame on her face.Murong Danyan comforted her and said: "These Japanese thieves are despicable and shameless, and my sister doesn't know martial arts, so being captured by these villains is not something to be ashamed of."

Li Qiufeng thought to himself: "It seems that Liu Sheng's clan is far more powerful than I imagined. Xiao Shaoxia is also a well-known figure in the Jianghu. When he placed Miss Ma, he must have found a safe place. Unexpectedly It was found out by the Liusheng clan. I heard Zhuyue said before that there are eyeliners of the Liusheng clan everywhere in the court and in the rivers and lakes. Liusheng Zongyan has spent so much effort, if he wants to gather them together , I’m afraid it’s even harder than ascending to the sky.”

When he was thinking, he heard Ma Dongqing say: "Sister Murong, Hero Li, why are you here?"

Murong Danyan was about to narrate the experience of these days, but he heard Li Qiufeng say: "If I want to tell all the experiences of these days, I'm afraid I can't explain clearly in three days and three nights. The most important thing right now is to burn this place, so as not to They were then used as lairs by pirates. As for their respective experiences, we might as well talk about them later.”

Before he finished speaking, his eyebrows raised suddenly, he suddenly raised his head and looked into the courtyard, and said: "Someone is coming! This man's martial arts are extremely high, Miss Murong, protect Miss Ma, let me go out and have a look."
