Chapter 38 Another dead one
Chapter 38 Another dead one
Ximen Chuuxue is a famous swordsman in the world. He has been obsessed with swordsmanship all his life, and he may have reached a height that no one can reach in the way of swordsmanship, but Ye Gucheng is definitely not included in this!
Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, the leader of the swords in the South China Sea, is famous in the world for his one move of Flying Immortal, and he is the only person in this world who can compete with Ximen Chuuxue in the way of swordsmanship.
These two people are about the same age, similar in personality, the same indifference and aloofness, unreasonable, the same white clothes, deep cleanliness obsession, and the same obsession with swords!
They are similar but different. If Ximen Chuixue is the snow that falls in winter and plum blossoms bloom on the snow, then Ye Gucheng is the endless clouds in the sky, and the cold moon behind the clouds.
Although they are not the same, they are equally elegant and unparalleled!
Wanmei Villa and Baiyun City are separated by more than ten thousand miles, and their owners have never appeared on the rivers and lakes at the same time. Countless people have guessed what it would be like if such two people met, would they be Is it a mutual acquaintance like a confidant or a shocking duel? !
I'm afraid they would never have imagined that the two seemingly unrelated people actually knew each other, and they were childhood sweethearts who grew up together.
If that hadn't happened, what would happen to them now?
Ximen Chuuxue looked at the man holding the sword and dancing, secretly thinking, maybe the two of them are already an old couple, maybe they are not so lingering and loving, but they only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals.If each other is a man and a woman, even a lot of dolls will be born!
Unfortunately, there is no if in this world!
Ximen Chuuxue flicked his sleeves, drew his sword, and shot towards Ye Gucheng like lightning.
The two swords struck each other, making a crisp and high-pitched long cry!
The amber eyes were extremely clear, Ye Gucheng jumped up, and the flashing sword light was more brilliant than the rising sun in the sky, it was impossible to stare at!
Sword Qi is vertical and horizontal!Pieces of green leaves are flying in the air like falling rain.
Something spurted out from his bones, making his blood completely hot, Ye Gucheng knew that it was a long-lost fighting spirit!A fighting spirit that only Ximen Chuuxue could bring to him!
Among the criss-crossing sword lights, the face on the opposite side is so familiar, with cold eyes, aloof and ruthless, and the sharp and sharp swordsmanship does not give others a way out, nor does it give himself a way out.
The chest hurts, rising together with appreciation and admiration is the engraved hostility and murderous aura deep in the soul!
At that moment, maybe he was haunted, or was his soul controlled by some devil?Otherwise, how could he have swung that move at him without the slightest hesitation?
The long sword that looked like autumn water was shining brightly under the golden sunlight, bringing out a series of blood drops, and the bewitching red gradually oozes out of the snowy white, such a dazzling color burned his eyes.
Ye Gucheng rushed to his side almost all at once, and the long sword that was regarded as life was thrown aside, and he tightly hugged his injured left arm with both hands, with a dazed look on his face.
If it wasn't because the other party was also a peerless expert, with rich experience in fighting the enemy, he instinctively avoided it when he sensed the danger, or if he didn't suddenly wake up at the last moment, maybe it wasn't his shoulder that he scratched at this moment, But through his throat? !
Such a scene, just thinking about it for a while, made him shudder, and his fingertips trembled slightly in fear.
Ximen Chuuxue's face was calm, as if he wasn't the one who was injured, slowly holding his wrist, he said indifferently: "I'm fine!"
"Shut up!" Ye Gucheng shouted coldly, then grabbed his palm with his backhand and jumped towards the courtyard where the two lived.
The lightness skills of the two are excellent, and they are both well-known in the arena.At this moment, they are flying side by side, with the wind whistling beside their ears, and the scenery under their feet is receding. Almost in the blink of an eye, the two of them have already returned to the room where Ye Gucheng lived.
Ye Gucheng quickly took out a box of plasters and white bandages, then grabbed his sleeve and tore it apart forcefully.Although a lot of blood was shed, the bright red blood on the snow-white clothes looked a little scary, but the wound on the shoulder was not very deep, and the shallow scratches were a bit long, but they were only flesh wounds. I believe it will heal in a few days. It's completely healed, not even a scar will be left.
Even so, Ye Gucheng's brows still did not loosen. He twisted a towel and wiped his wound as gently as possible. Then he opened the medicine box and spread the transparent ointment on his wound evenly, and then wrapped it with a bandage. Tie it tightly in a circle.
Ximen Chuuxue looked at the blood on his body, frowned slightly, then he stood up and said, "I'll go back and change my clothes."
Ye Gucheng didn't speak, until the moment he walked out of the room, he said, "I'm sorry."
Ximen Chuuxue paused, then left.
Only Ye Gucheng was left alone standing in place with his eyes downcast, no one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
There were only two people living in the remote courtyard. Lu Xiaofeng also lived here, but because of the bride's death, he was so busy looking for the murderer that he didn't even go back to the room a few times.So the small courtyard was very quiet, as quiet as if there were no people.
I don't know how long he stood there, but suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps at the gate of the courtyard, Ye Gucheng frowned slightly, walked out with a flick of his sleeves, as soon as he stepped out of the room, he ran into someone who had changed his clothes and pushed the door out. Ximen Chuuxue.
The two pairs of eyes looked at each other, and then moved away, silently, without any waves.
As soon as the pretty maid entered the courtyard, she was stared at by two pairs of icy eyes, one on the left and one on the right. She shuddered fiercely, and even her voice trembled a little. She blessed her body tremblingly, She said: "The mansion...something happened in the mansion, that hero Lu asked his slaves to invite the two of them over..."
Ximen Chuuxue asked, "What happened?"
The servant girl's eyes turned red, and she replied: "Madam, Madam, she is dead..."
The two were startled, looked at each other, and then walked out of the courtyard together. The moment they left, there was a flash of white light, and there was already a white fluffy fox lying on Ximen Chuuxue's shoulder.
Along the way, the servants and maids I encountered were all in a hurry, some were sad and some were panicked, two people died in a row within a few days, and the whole Ao family is now in a state of panic.
When Ye Gucheng and the two arrived at Wujuyuan, they found that the place was completely dead and silent, completely different from the outside, as if they were two completely opposite worlds.They knew that this was all because the servants in the yard were sent away.
In the bedroom, the beautiful woman had her eyes closed and her face was serene. If it weren't for the deep sadness on the faces of the two men standing and sitting in front of her bed, people would think she was just asleep.
Ximen Chuuxue looked at Lu Xiaofeng who was standing in front of the window, and asked, "What's going on?"
Lu Xiaofeng sighed, and said: "It's poisoning! It's been two hours since I died, Madam Ao's personal maid discovered it."
Just after he finished speaking, Shi Duhuai, who had been kneeling in front of Mrs. Ao's bed, suddenly jumped up, and rushed towards him with a ferocious expression. With Lu Xiaofeng's skill, he could completely avoid it, but seeing the other party blushing slightly In the corner of his eyes, his body froze, but he still didn't move after all.
Shi Duhuai grabbed his skirt and asked sharply, "What did you say to her?! Why did you deliberately dismiss me? Why did my sister die? What did you talk about?!"
The three pairs of eyes looked at Lu Xiaofeng together, apparently they did not expect such a layer of inside story.Ao Lianyun took a deep breath and said: "This matter is related to the cause of my wife's death, please don't hide anything from Daxia Lu."
Lu Xiaofeng sighed again, smiled wryly, "I just asked her a few questions."
"What's the problem?" Shi Duhuai asked.
Lu Xiaofeng dug into his bosom, and took out a big red handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks and stalks. Before the others could react, Shi Duhuai called out first: "This, this is Xiaoyin's embroidered handkerchief?!"
Lu Xiaofeng was a little surprised, "You know?"
Shi Duhuai smiled wryly: "Xiaoyin's embroidery is second to none in Suzhou, how could I not recognize her embroidery!"
This person really is sincere to Miss Lin San, but - what a pity!Lu Xiaofeng raised the handkerchief and said: "This is indeed embroidered by the bride, I got it from Mrs. Ao by accident. And the reason why I went to Mrs. Ao was to ask how she got this square handkerchief !"
Shi Duhuai frowned slightly, and said: "Is there any need to ask? Xiaoyin must have given it to my sister. They, they are going to become sisters-in-law after all, so there is nothing strange in giving each other a handkerchief!"
"If it's just an ordinary veil, there's nothing strange about it, but it's obviously not an ordinary veil."
Shi Duhuai's brows frowned even tighter, he looked at the red veil again, and said, "Forgive me for my clumsy eyes, I really don't see why it's unusual."
"This is Yuanyangpa!" Ye Gucheng's faint voice sounded.
Lu Xiaofeng smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Mandarin duck handkerchiefs are tokens of love, and women have always given them to their lovers. How could Miss Lin San give a mandarin duck handkerchief with such a meaning to her sister-in-law?"
"More importantly, when I got the handkerchief, Madam Ao asked the maid to destroy the square embroidered handkerchief. As far as I know, Madam Ao hates the owner of the embroidered handkerchief very much!"
