Salted Fish Sect.
...Salted Fish Sect.
Why is it the Salted Fish Sect
Xiao Qiuyu thought so.
Liu Yuhen asked his doubts directly. Xiao Qiuyu did not eavesdrop on the conversation on purpose. He only listened to half of it, but the second half of the conversation between Lengxue and Wudu made Xiao Qiuyu very confused. Later, when Lengxue and Wudu walked out of the yard and faced Xiao Qiuyu who was holding tea, the atmosphere became a little subtle.
But Wudu did not respond at all. Lengxue guessed that he actually did not care about the name of his sect being known to others.
...In the final analysis, the leader who would use the name of the sect as Salted Fish always felt that he was a very self-centered person.
So Liu Yuhen also knew Wudu's origin and raised such doubts.
The masked killer shook his head, saying that he didn't know, but he knew that the head master didn't like to eat fish.
Whether it was fresh fish or dried fish, the master didn't like it.
Several people: "..."
In that case, why call it the Salted Fish Sect...
Let's not talk about the name of the Salted Fish Sect for now. The reason why the four of them got together was to lure out Wei Wu Ya, but not only did they not know where the opponent was, but they also collected several Wu Ya sect's assassins.
How to deal with those assassins became a problem. Sometimes, if you fail to kill the opponent the first time, it would be inhumane to kill him again.
Leng Xue said, "Why not let them go? I will follow them in secret."
Among the four, Leng Xue never showed up in front of the assassins. Liu Yuhen and Xiao Qiuyu were responsible for bait, while Wu Du was responsible for the surprise attack. The division of labor was clear, and Leng Xue was equivalent to the supervisor - this was also in line with the status of the Six Gates in the martial arts world.
You can say whatever you want to Wu Du, but Liu Yuhen and Xiao Qiuyu were cautious and cautious about Leng Xue, and they didn't even dare to mention anything slightly excessive.
Xiao Qiuyu didn't agree, and said tactfully, "Instead of wasting time and effort, it's better to rely on external forces - such as the Wanwu Building."
He had always been curious why Chong Ming was unwilling to provide Wu Du with Wei Wu Ya's location - he was willing to provide them with their affairs with Miss Shangguan, but he was unwilling to do it all at once.
Now Xiao Qiuyu and Liu Yuhen have reached a consensus. Instead of waiting for Wuya's assassins to come to the door one after another, it is better to take advantage of Lengxue and Wudu's eyes on Wuya and use them.
Liu Yuhen stared at Wudu with curiosity.
Lengxue was the same.
Wudu showed some hesitation in his eyes, and he said, "I'm afraid it won't work... He knows that I'm involved in this matter. Even if you ask, he won't be willing to tell anyone."
It sounded like the owner of Wanwu Building didn't want Wudu to go to Wei Wuya's lair...
Lengxue remembered that Senior Brother Wuqing once suspected that Chongming's voluntary exposure of his identity and name might be related to Wudu, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Liu Yuhen asked, "Then what else can you do?"
Wu Du thought for a moment and replied, "Go find Yao Yue."
Liu Yuhen: "..."
Xiao Qiuyu's eyelids jumped. Going to find Yao Yue for Wei Wu Ya made sense logically, but it seemed a bit... like nothing.
In short, it was hard to put into words.
Leng Xue rejected it bluntly, "Don't do that."
Yao Yue must hate anything that linked her to Wei Wu Ya. That would only bring an enemy, not a companion.
Wu Du blinked.
They couldn't come to a conclusion, and it was time for dinner, so they put the topic aside for the time being. Xiao Qiuyu went out to buy food, and on the way he wondered what Wu Du meant.
Wu Du wanted to see Chong Ming, and he seemed to know Chong Ming's thoughts very well. There must be an unknown connection between the two.
The sun was shining brightly, and people were coming and going on the street. Xiao Qiuyu paid the bill and walked around with a food basket. The reason why he was asked to buy food was because he was relatively less conspicuous among the four people, and was also the best bait to attract the Wu Yamen assassins.
Xiao Qiuyu keenly noticed that someone was following him secretly again. Xiao Qiuyu pretended to turn his head casually and saw a unkempt man with messy hair, drinking while walking, and the gourd blocked his face, making it blurry.
After cooperating with Wudu for several days, but without any results, Xiao Qiuyu became more and more anxious. If Wuyamen's pursuit was not resolved, Miss Shangguan would have to stay in the house of her relatives who were waiting for her and live in fear. When he thought of Miss Shangguan's frightened look with tears in her eyes, Xiao Qiuyu's heart ached. Even though Shangguan
Feiyan was not in front of him, Xiao Qiuyu's feelings would not deteriorate due to distance.
Xiao Qiuyu led the man to the courtyard they rented, not through the main gate, but to the remote small door, knocked on the door six times, the sound was crisp, and the sound of the bolt falling came from inside the house.
He walked into the house.
Looking at the low wooden door that was slowly closing, Zhui Ming hung the wine gourd back on his waist, wiped his mouth, and began to carefully look at the courtyard. He came here following Xiao Qingzhou's clues, but found no trace of the person he was looking for. However, he heard rumors that guests disappeared in various inns. The
guests' rooms still had their personal belongings, but they never returned. Zhui Ming asked around and found that before these people disappeared, a thin and worried young swordsman passed by.
That's why Zhui Ming was chasing after Xiao Qiuyu.
Xiao Qiuyu is a little famous in the martial arts world, but compared with swordsmen like Ximen Chuxue, he is nothing special. However, the four famous detectives of the Shenhou Mansion are all aware of all kinds of strange people and things in the martial arts world. Zhui Ming recognized Xiao Qiuyu, so he was even more puzzled.
Xiao Qiuyu has no companions and no good friends. How could he carry so many food? Zhui Ming
stroked the lid of the wine gourd, jumped up to a high place to observe for a moment, made a decision, jumped into the courtyard, and began to investigate this slightly desolate courtyard.
Bu Zao silently wiped his short knife, with no expression on his face. After wiping the knife, the short knife returned to the sheath, and Bu Zao got up to give Zhui Ming the surprise.
Leng Xue was unaware that his senior brother was no more than a hundred meters away from him. Seeing Wu Du going out to knock him out as usual, he thought to himself: I hope I can get something this time.
If Bu Zao knew what he was thinking, he would probably bring Zhui Ming to Leng Xue in a princess hug, but Bu Zao didn't know, so he knocked Zhui Ming unconscious by surprise and dragged him to Leng Xue.
"Is this the man?"
Wu Du, who had never seen Zhui Ming before, let go of Zhui Ming and threw him to the ground, asking Xiao Qiuyu seriously.
Xiao Qiuyu was already used to Wudu's speed and nodded.
Lengxue fell silent.
Liu Yuhen asked: "Captain Lengxue, what's wrong?" Zhui Ming
's features were not obvious, and he was more suitable to be an undercover agent than Lengxue, so not many people in the world knew him.
Lengxue said: "...He is Captain Zhui Ming, my senior brother."
Liu Yuhen & Xiao Qiuyu: "…………"
* Zhui
Ming was very relaxed after waking up, not dizzy at all. He learned the whole story from Lengxue and wanted to drink, but only a slightly empty sound of water came from the wine gourd. He put the cork back.
It is true that young people are heroes... Zhui Ming only caught a glimpse of a black corner of clothes before he was knocked unconscious, but when he woke up, he saw the green eyes of his junior brother.
The round-eyed masked assassin apologized and then stood quietly aside. Zhui Ming touched his neck and said with a smile: "You are very good at hitting people. It doesn't hurt at all."
Don't you see how many people Wu Du hit!
Xiao Qiuyu, who was hurt by the beating, thought angrily.
Wu Du crooked his eyes.
The person who was following was not the Wu Ya Sect's assassin, but Zhui Ming. Liu Yuhen showed some impatience on his face. He felt exactly the same as Xiao Qiuyu, and just wanted to get Shangguan Feiyan out of the endless panic as soon as possible.
Wu Du made a suggestion: "If inviting the Moon Palace Master doesn't work, how about your two sweethearts?"
"No!" Liu Yuhen rejected it immediately.
The rejection on Xiao Qiuyu's face was very obvious.
After spending so many days together, Leng Xue already knew that the two of them had the same crush on the same girl, and that they both protected that girl very much and were full of love.
... So Wu Du's idea was a bad idea, but he didn't seem to understand and was very serious about it.
"Instead of letting Miss Shangguan be frightened, it's better to get rid of Wei Wuya as soon as possible." Wu Du said seriously, "I won't let Miss Shangguan fall into danger."
Liu Yuhen was a little unhappy: "...I won't either."
Xiao Qiuyu continued: "So you shouldn't let Miss Shangguan be bait."
Wu Du nodded to show his understanding.
These two people are devoted to Shangguan Feiyan and protect her very well. Bu Zao still thinks that he can rely on these two people to meet Shangguan Feiyan and inspect the Shura Field on the spot.
——But judging from the current situation, these two people are obviously not very reliable——It would be better for him to go to Shangguan Feiyan and wait for someone to come.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant. Xiao Qiuyu didn't want to have a conflict with Wu Du, at least he had to save face, so he said: "What kind of entanglement does Wu Gongzi's junior brother have with Wei Wuya? Can it be used as a raft to lure Wei Wuya out?"
Xiao Qiuyu and Liu Yuhen were for their loved ones, while Wu Du was for his junior brother.
"..." Wu Du stretched out his hand and pulled up the mask, and said hesitantly, "Junior brother doesn't want me to meddle in his business... If I go to him, he will just say that I am meddling in other people's business."
——Isn't your relationship between brothers a little too strange?
Zhui Ming looked at Leng Xue and thought, fortunately his junior brother wouldn't say that he was meddling in other people's business.
Leng Xue said, "Since he doesn't want to, then what you did is just meddling in other people's business."
This was said bluntly, but there was also a hint of resentment hidden in it. Zhui Ming looked at his junior brother in surprise.
Wu Du pulled up his mask again, looked at Leng Xue, and said nothing. There was an inexplicable sense of grievance in his round eyes.
Leng Xue glanced at Xiao Qiuyu and Liu Yuhen, and continued to ask Wu Du, "Is your junior brother also walking in the martial arts world?"
"Yes, he and I went down the mountain together, and we parted ways at the fork in the road at the foot of the mountain." Wu Du still answered Leng Xue's question.
"Then go see him." Leng Xue said without hesitation, "Since you want to vent your anger for him, he must know."
Wu Du blinked, and nods after thinking about something.
Leng Xue was stunned instead.
The side quest can be put aside for the time being. Bu Zao looked at Xiao Qiuyu, the character who introduced the side quest, and glanced at Liu Yuhen. He thought that these two people were really useless. He could even send away such a powerful output.
- Goodbye.
Bu Zao let the Wuyamen's assassins go, and told them that whether they escaped or returned to Wei Wuya, he would definitely find Wei Wuya and asked them to pass the message to Wei Wuya.
The assassins showed uneasy expressions and watched Wu Du turn around and leave.
When Xiao Qiuyu and Liu Yuhen found out, the house was empty. Wu Du was wiping his short knife, and the cold light reflected his dark eyes.
Those eyes were very calm.
Wudu said he had those people tell Wei Wuya to come to Wudu if he has any problems, and he would find Wei Wuya.
Xiao Qiuyu said angrily, "Why don't you ask us two!"
Wudu replied, "I was reckless, but you two were too cautious, which is not in line with my personality."
Liu Yuhen looked deeply at the arrogant young killer and said, "Master Wu... sometimes being too reckless will only bring disaster."
This is Liu Yuhen's personal experience. His horrible appearance is the result of acting at will.
Wudu put the knife back into the sheath: "I know what I am doing."
His tone was still very calm and unmoved.
Zhui Ming watched from a distance and praised him in his heart.
Leng Xue frowned slightly, his expression slightly tangled. Zhui Ming asked him: "You don't like Wu Du"
Leng Xue hesitated for a moment and said: "No... Senior Brother, do you still remember that I said I had a playmate when I was young?"
Zhui Ming was stunned: "That playmate was him"
Leng Xue nodded.
Zhui Ming: "..."
No wonder. This killer didn't show the shadow of "honest, kind and lovely" that Leng Xue had described before.
