Hearing what Zhang Jinjiu said.
Wang Yang was slightly surprised, and a strange light flashed quickly in his eyes.
He quickly guessed it.
This current timeframe should be after Li Xunhuan, the Flying Dagger, entered the pass for the second time, which is what happened.
However, Wang Yang didn't interrupt Zhang Jinjiu; he just listened casually.
After all, the information he had about the Plum Blossom Thief was far more detailed than that of Zhang Jinjiu.
Wang Yang even knew exactly what would happen next.
At this moment, Zhao Min and the others were all shocked after hearing what Zhang Jinjiu said.
"Oh? Was the Plum Blossom Thief that famous before?"
"The number one swordsman in the martial world? Wu Wentian?"
"Was that a self-proclaimed title?"
"Putting everything else aside, our young master's swordsmanship absolutely crushes Wu Wentian!"
"..."
Zhao Min and the others sighed in admiration.
"Um?"
After hearing what everyone was saying, Zhang Jinjiu glanced at Wang Yang meaningfully.
After piecing together the information, he quickly guessed Wang Yang's identity.
"With so many beauties by my side, and Master Shangguan also by my side."
"It seems this person must be Wang Yang, who caused quite a stir in the martial arts world before!"
"Previously outside the capital of the Ming Dynasty, this man broke through 6,800 armors with a single sword strike, which can be described as astonishing."
"I didn't expect him to be as young as the rumors said!"
Zhang Jinjiu was secretly amazed.
I never expected to run into Wang Yang here.
Just as he was lost in thought, Yang Xiao suddenly looked at him and said with a smile:
"Brother, please continue!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jinjiu snapped out of his reverie and pursed his lips, saying:
"The Plum Blossom Thief's whereabouts are elusive and unpredictable."
“Take Wu Wentian for example, he just boasted that he was going to find the Plum Blossom Thief.”
"Who would have thought that he would be found dead in his own yard the very next day."
"On his chest, there were five bloodstains arranged like plum blossoms, each as small as a pinprick."
"And this is the mark of the Plum Blossom Thief."
Upon hearing Zhang Jinjiu's words, Fan Yao frowned slightly and asked with doubt:
"So, the Plum Blossom Thief is not only skilled in light-footed martial arts, but also a master of concealed weapons?"
Zhang Jinjiu neither confirmed nor denied this, but nodded slightly and said:
"That's right!"
"Unfortunately, after all these years, no one knows what kind of vicious hidden weapon the Plum Blossom Bandit used!"
"Because everyone who has seen him is dead."
"No one knows exactly what the Plum Blossom Thief looks like."
At this point, Zhang Jinjiu paused slightly before continuing:
"The only thing that can be confirmed is that the Plum Blossom Thief must be a man."
Hearing what Zhang Jinjiu said, Zhou Botong and the others became even more excited.
At this moment, Zhao Min pursed her lips and asked, "Didn't everyone who saw the Plum Blossom Thief die? How can you be sure he was a man?"
This was accompanied by Zhao Min's questioning.
Zhou Zhiruo and the others nodded in agreement, all looking at Zhang Jinjiu in the same direction.
I feel that what Zhang Jinjiu said just now was somewhat contradictory.
Since everyone who saw the Plum Blossom Thief is dead, how can we be sure that the Plum Blossom Thief was a man?
Zhang Jinjiu didn't seem to care. He picked up his gourd, took a couple of sips of wine, and then said unhurriedly:
"Because this Plum Blossom Thief not only robs money but also rapes."
"In the martial arts world, both the righteous and the wicked hate him to the bone, but there's nothing they can do about him."
"Moreover, anyone who dares to oppose him will surely die within three days."
"They must wear the unique mark of the Plum Blossom Thief on their chests."
As soon as Zhang Jinjiu said this, Yang Xiao and the others were all taken aback.
Before anyone could react, Zhou Botong suddenly stood up, put his hands on his hips, and said:
"I, the old rascal, refuse to believe this nonsense!"
"I am irreconcilably opposed to the Plum Blossom Bandit. If I have the chance, I will definitely capture this thief and rid the martial world of this menace!"
When he said this, Zhou Botong seemed extremely serious, almost as if he were swearing an oath to the heavens.
Seeing Zhou Botong's words and actions, some people couldn't help but chuckle.
Zhang Jinjiu noticed this and looked slightly embarrassed.
He figured he was just talking about old rumors.
Why does this old man Zhou Botong seem to take it so seriously?
Before Zhang Jinjiu could say anything more, Zhou Botong suddenly looked at him with great curiosity:
"I've now said I'm going to fight the Plum Blossom Thief."
"Won't that Plum Blossom Thief come looking for revenge on me, Old Urchin, in less than three days?"
"If that's the case, that would be perfect! I'm just looking for something to do!"
When Zhang Jinjiu heard Zhou Botong's question, he was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Just then, Wang Yuyan pursed her lips and suddenly asked:
"The fatal wounds of the people who died at the hands of the Plum Blossom Thief were all on their chests, right?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jinjiu nodded and softly hummed in agreement.
"good!"
"This vital area of the chest is the most heavily guarded part of a martial artist's body."
"But the Plum Blossom Thief always chose this place to make his move, without exception."
"It's as if his prowess wouldn't be apparent if he didn't act this way."
At this point, Zhang Jinjiu paused slightly, glanced at everyone, and said meaningfully:
"Therefore, the first thing to do in order to deal with the Plum Blossom Bandit is to find a way to dodge his fatal blow to the chest!"
"In this way, even if we encounter the Plum Blossom Bandit, we will be invincible."
What surprised Zhang Jinjiu was...
Zhou Botong and the others didn't seem particularly surprised by what he said.
"Gentlemen, I've already told you how to guard against the Plum Blossom Thief, can't you even give me a response?"
After Zhang Jinjiu said that, everyone smiled calmly.
Zhou Botong responded immediately:
"What's there to guard against?"
"If that Plum Blossom Thief really dares to show up, I, the Old Urchin, will be the first to capture him!"
Zhang Jinjiu was stunned, speechless at Zhou Botong's words.
At this moment, Zhao Min said with a smile:
"Detective Zhang, right?"
"We don't need to worry about the Plum Blossom Thief at all."
"With you here, young master, if the Plum Blossom Thief dares to show up, I guarantee he won't leave alive!"
As she spoke, Zhao Min glanced at Wang Yang, her eyes filled with admiration and affection.
"Um?"
Zhang Jinjiu frowned slightly, turned to look at Wang Yang, and said:
"Alliance Leader Wang, did you come to this town to capture the Plum Blossom Bandit as well?"
Upon hearing Zhang Jinjiu's words, Wang Yang was slightly surprised, then smiled and said:
"Do you know who I am?"
Zhang Jinjiu burst into laughter:
"Hahaha!"
"I have heard of Wang Yang, the leader of the martial arts world, who was famous not long ago!"
"With so many beauties by his side, is Leader Wang perhaps planning to lure the Plum Blossom Bandit out?"
"If that's the case, you'd better keep a close eye on these pretty ladies. The Plum Blossom Thief is a thief who appears and disappears like a ghost!"
Wang Yang smiled calmly, appearing not to care much.
After all, he knew the whole story of the Plum Blossom Thief, so there was no need for him to worry.
