Chapter 157 The first murder

Regarding Yi Xue's proposal, Xia Yunwan naturally did not dare, as a lady of the family, she had never spoken ill to anyone, let alone beat anyone.

Yi Xue smiled lightly, and didn't say anything more, but said to Xu Lei, "Hurry up, I'm still in a hurry to go home for dinner."

Xu Lei was ashamed, and smiled at the other party, "Okay, you should lie down too."

Before the killer could react, he saw pain in his lower back, then looked down, and saw a knife stuck in his stomach.

"You...are you using...double knives?" The man fell back straight.

"This is my trump card, it's the first time I use it, and it works well," Xu Lei said, licking his lips.

"What should I do now?" Xu Lei looked at the killer who was subdued by Yi Xue.

"Of course I figured it out," Yi Xue said with a smile.

"Do you think the killer is that capable?" Xu Lei asked back.

Yi Xue didn't understand what Xu Lei meant, but she soon understood that this assassin somehow did it, and immediately foamed at the mouth, trembling all over, and her eyes were about to roll out.

You were poisoned, Yi Xue realized immediately, you are lucky to be poisoned in front of me.

"Xu Lei, move his mouth away," Yi Xue shouted hastily.

Xu Lei didn't know what Yi Xue was going to do, but he still followed his orders.Yi Xue took out the space spring water from her bosom and poured it down.She knew that the space spring water might not be able to detoxify this person, but delaying it for a while is indeed no problem.

Sure enough, after drinking the spring water, the sieve stopped convulsing and looked like he was about to die.

"Xu Lei, is there any way to get him to say something?" Yi Xue asked, she has no experience in interrogation, but Xu Lei came from the Assassin League, so she should know some methods.

Xu Lei shook his head and said helplessly, "If I knew you were using holy water, I would have stopped you. It's too wasteful. For these killers, they will die sooner or later. Even if they use any method, they will not say anything, but I already know his identity"

Yi Xue was depressed, and glared at Xu Lei, she really lost the chain at a critical moment, and she actually did useless work.

"See if there's anything on him." Yi Xue was still a little unwilling.

Although this kidnapping had nothing to do with him, it was Xia Yunwan who they kidnapped.Although she didn't meet Xia Yunwan much, only once, but for some reason, she always had an inexplicable kindness towards Xia Yunwan.Now, she just wanted to know who came to arrest Xia Yunwan, whether it was a vendetta, or something else.

Xu Lei touched the sieve and another killer for a long time, but there was nothing but weapons.He spread his hands and gestured for Yi Xue.

"You said just now that you knew their identities?" Yi Xue asked.

Xu Lei rubbed his head, and said embarrassedly, "I remember Master said that there is only one organization that is not afraid of our Killer League, but this organization is very mysterious, called Ghost Gate"

Ghost Gate, I feel a little chill when I hear this name.Xia Yunwan trembled uncontrollably.

"That is to say, you are not sure?" Yi Xue asked dissatisfied.

"Hehe, that... Miss, I really can't be sure. With the brilliance and martial arts of our Killer League, no one escapes without being seen. I guess it must be."

Is this a reason?Yi Xue's face turned dark.

"How to deal with these two corpses?" Yi Xue asked.It was impossible for her not to feel apprehensive when she saw a dead man for the first time.She had never killed anyone, and she didn't want to kill anyone, but both of them died because of her presence, Yi Xue still felt uncomfortable.

"Leave it to me," Xu Lei said excitedly.

Yi Xue dragged Xia Yunwan away as a matter of course, Xia Yunwan's face had already turned pale, presumably she had never seen a dead person before.

"I have finally killed someone, master, I have finally become a teacher," Xu Lei said excitedly, pulling the two corpses.

Yi Xue had black lines all over her head, so it turned out that this guy was also killing someone for the first time.But this guy's guts are really big enough.

"Sister Yixue, how did you find out that I was kidnapped?" Xia Yunwan was still pale, but she was much better now.

Yi Xue recounted what she saw on the road.

"Sister, you are so brave. I didn't expect you to know martial arts. Thank you for saving me this time." Xia Yunwan held Yi Xue's little hand.

"Okay, it's done, no one will find out," Xu Lei patted the soil, and walked out from the bushes, the excitement on his face has not faded.

This guy is so perverted, he is so interested in killing people.Although Yi Xue is very courageous, but in her heart she really doesn't want to encounter murder again.

"Let's go back in the carriage," Yi Xue said.

"No", Xu Lei immediately objected.

Yi Xue looked at Xu Lei suspiciously, but soon Xu Lei gave an explanation, "Who knows if there are any killers in the county, if there are, they will recognize us, and then there will be no peace."

Yi Xue realized that this guy really came out of the den of killers and knew a lot.He gave a compliment, which made Xu Leile's mouth slant to one side.

"But this carriage", Yi Xue felt a little distressed, after all, she had always wanted a carriage, and a carriage was not cheap.

"I can't take this carriage, but I don't want the carriage, but I can take the horse," Xu Lei said with a smile.

Yi Xue frowned. Even though she said that, how would she explain to the villagers that she bought a horse?Say you stole it yourself?

"Sister likes carriages?" Xia Yunwan asked in surprise.

Yi Xue was speechless. It's not that she likes carriages, but because she doesn't own one.

"Forget it, Xu Lei, let's lead the horse and go, it's also counted as interest." Yi Xue thought about what kind of reason she made up, and went back so that everyone would not doubt it.

"Sister, I'll go back and ask my father to give you a horse. This horse is really not very good." Seeing Yi Xue's frowning expression, Xia Yunwan felt a little ridiculous in her heart.

This girl is a fan of money, why does she even want such a low-quality horse? Looking at this horse, she is already old.

"That's not necessary, sister Yun Wan, you should cover your face, this road is not close, don't be discovered by others," Yi Xue said.

Xia Yunwan gave a grunt and stood up, but she still let out a painful ouch, the bumps along the way made her slender body bones fall apart.Maybe it was because of nervousness that I didn't feel it just now, but now when I relax, I feel unbearable pain.

"Sister, get on the horse, let's walk back slowly," Yi Xue said.

Helping Xia Yunwan onto the horse's back, Yi Xue found that Xia Yunwan could actually ride a horse. Although she was in pain, she could tell from the way she was holding the rein that she often rode a horse.

"My sister can also ride a horse," Yi Xue asked with a smile.

"Well, I learned from my father when I was young, and I haven't ridden for a long time." Xia Yunwan's cold face was much better now.

Yi Xue remembered that the first time she met Xia Yunwan, she was cold and arrogant.But her desolation belongs to the feeling of winter snow and a plum blossom. People want to get close, but feel that it will disturb the beautiful artistic conception.And her arrogance is not like Liu Mei, it is a kind of loneliness and loneliness.

But today, Yi Xue saw another side of her, although a little cold, but with a comfortable smile.

The three walked slowly like this, Xia Yunwan probably fell asleep on the horse's back because of the fright for a long time.

Yi Xue didn't bother, and let Xu Lei lead the horse by the rein, and walked all the way. When he was about to reach the county town, he saw many people making noise, and many soldiers and servants scattered around.

It seems that the Xia family discovered Xia Yunwan's disappearance and sent people out to look for it.

"Sister, someone is looking for you." Yi Xue woke Xia Yunwan up.

Sure enough, Xia Yunwan opened her eyes and took a look, then shouted, "Butler Xue"

Seeing someone Xia Yunwan knew, Yi Xue gave Xu Lei a wink, took advantage of Xia Yunwan's inattention, turned around and walked into the crowd and disappeared.

"Miss, I finally found you." Steward Xue ran forward sweating profusely, and then many servants also surrounded him.

When Yi Xue turned her head to look at Yi Xue, she found that the girl had long since disappeared.

………………

"Miss, I don't want that horse anymore," Xu Lei said regretfully.

Yi Xue was also distressed, but she thought that with such a big commotion, if there were a hidden killer as Xu Lei said, wouldn't she have brought disaster on herself again.So after she connected with each other at that time, she decisively "abandoned" Xia Yunwan and the horse.

The two walked quickly, and when they arrived at Huawang Town, they saw Qiushui and Lao Zhangtou who had been anxiously waiting for them at the intersection.

"Miss, are you okay?" Qiu Shui came to see Yi Xue first, and was relieved to see that Yi Xue was not injured.

"It's okay, let's go home." Yi Xue didn't tell Qiushui and Lao Zhangtou what happened just now.

Back to the village in a bullock cart, it was already late. After some inquiries, Mother took Mrs. Jia and others to the greenhouse.Tianjia brought people to plant trees and hasn't returned yet.

Let the autumn water boil the water, and after washing it, the sun set.

After having dinner with Mrs. Zhang and others, Yi Xue fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, Yi Xue practiced her sword skills a few times, and then went out to see the situation of planting trees. She saw that the trees had been planted from the gate of the house to the entrance of the village, and from the gate of the house to the carbon field. so big.

"Miss, I planted all the trees in the orchard and the yard today, I don't know what orders you have." Tianjia found Yi Xue and asked.

"Just do it according to what I set before." Yi Xue didn't want to use her brain anymore, so she said casually.

Now she still has two things to do, one is the opening ceremony of the Carbon Chamber of Commerce, and the other is silver, and the silver she has left is not enough.

I really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are.

I only have more than 40 taels of silver left in my pocket, which is all my belongings, and it will take about ten days for Heji Restaurant to settle the bill this month.What's more, the preparations to meet the imperial decree are also a lot of money.

Yi Xue felt a little headache when she thought about it, it seemed that she was about to sell something.

Why didn't I travel through spring? In that case, my food can be sold at a good price.It's a pity that if there is no if, I can only bite the bullet and hold on.
