Chapter 193 Fishing
Xigou laughed and said, "Don't be too confident. If no one can find out that you are the murderer, then what's the matter with this blackmail letter?"
Fang Zhixing raised the corner of his mouth slightly and sneered: "This is indeed a blackmail letter, but it is not to blackmail me for money."
Xigou's CPU is about to burn out, and I don't quite understand what he said.
Fang Zhixing explained carefully: "The writer suspected that I was the murderer of Shen Zhiyue, but he only suspected that I was the one who killed me. He did not have any evidence and could not be sure whether it was me who did it. So he used this letter to test the waters."
The dog couldn't help but shudder, choking and saying: "Damn, the other party is trying to trick you, is he fishing?!"
"Yes, I'm fishing!"
Fang Zhixing nodded and said, "If I go to the appointment, the other party will think that I am guilty and most likely the murderer."
The little dog suddenly understood.
Fang Zhixing pondered and said, "Besides me, there must be others who have received similar blackmail letters."
Xigou couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that the person who sent the letter is the Shen family? Are they casting a net to fish? Whoever takes the bait will be in trouble?"
Fang Zhixing sneered, "If this was really done by the Shen family, it only means that they are desperate now and have run out of tricks. They can't find out who the murderer is through normal investigation and evidence collection."
Xigou thought about it and agreed. With Fang Zhixing's brain and execution ability, it would be difficult for others to find fault with him.
In fact, if Xigou had not participated in the murder of Shen Zhiyue that night.
The Shen family would have even less clues about tracking down the murderer, and it would be impossible for them to even suspect Fang Zhixing.
Thinking of this, Xigou couldn't help feeling even more upset.
Now not only can he not help Fang Zhixing, but he has also become a burden to him. What is going on?
The thin dog also has to save face. He feels very embarrassed to see himself in such a mess, and he can hardly hold back.
In the blink of an eye, it was evening.
Wu Hongqiu didn't send me an invitation, so I have no appointment tonight.
Fang Zhixing was also happy to have some free time, so he hugged Hongye and fell asleep early.
Who would have thought that in the middle of the night, a carrier pigeon landed on the windowsill, cooing non-stop, waking them up.
Fang Zhixing got up and went downstairs, grabbed the pigeon, and took the roll of paper off its leg.
"Immediately head to Hulu Village, 130 miles southwest of the city, and kill Xiang Wenhong, the young master of the Red Flower Sect."
It's Honghuamen again! Fang Zhixing frowned, spread out the map, and looked carefully.
The map of Qinghe County is very large, with many mountains and waters in the southwest.
But where is the Hulu Village?
Hongye also came downstairs and thought: "Hulu Village may be just a small village, not marked on the map."
Fang Zhixing was speechless.
How could he go looking for such a tiny village in the middle of the night? What kind of brain made such a decision? Even so, even though he complained, Fang Zhixing knew that now was not the time to turn hostile.
He quickly began to gather his weapons.
Hongye asked, "Should we summon Ma Zhengming?"
Fang Zhixing hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Call him."
Ma Zhengming is at least at the fourth animal realm and has the ability to fight.
Soon, the two of them quietly left the secret passage, ran towards the darkness without hesitation, and went farther and farther away.
About two hours later, dawn was approaching.
The wind howled and the night grew darker, like a ball of ink that could not be dissolved.
Dadada~ Fang Zhixing galloped on his horse, passing through a forest, and suddenly a fork in the road appeared in front of him.
He stopped and looked around.
Under the dim starlight, a stone tablet stands at the fork in the road.
"Hulu Fork!"
Fang Zhixing's eyes flashed and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Ma Zhengming took a few glances, raised his hand and pointed to a fork in the road, saying, "Master, look at the sign, Hulu Village is in this direction."
Fang Zhixing nodded and said, "Okay, let's hurry over there."
The two men rode their horses at a gallop, walking forward in the dark along a weed-covered path.
After a moment, Fang Zhixing looked up and saw a low valley in front of him, shaped like a gourd.
There were neatly built houses in the valley, and at that moment there were heard the crowing of birds.
The two men stopped their horses and looked down at the entire Hulu Village.
It is indeed a small village with less than a hundred houses, most of which are simple and dilapidated.
Ma Zhengming hesitated and said, "Master, we have found Hulu Village. What should we do next?"
Fang Zhixing asked back: "What do you think?"
Ma Zhengming analyzed: "The mission is to instruct us to kill Xiang Wenhong here. I think there are two possibilities. One is that Xiang Wenhong will come to Hulu Village today. The other is that Xiang Wenhong has already been hiding in Hulu Village and may be transferred today."
Fang Zhixing raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled faintly: "No matter which possibility it is, as long as we guard the entrance of the village, we will definitely be able to wait for Xiang Wenhong, right?"
"Master, great advice!"
Ma Zhengming nodded and bowed, and flattered the emperor.
The two men stopped talking, dismounted, tied up their horses, and quietly approached the valley entrance.
The two of them spread out to the left and right, guarding both sides of the village entrance.
Kun crowed non-stop.
Thanks to Kun'er's efforts, a hint of paleness gradually appeared on the horizon.
Dada~ Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the village.
Fang Zhixing narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around the village.
Soon he discovered that four people came out from behind a thatched hut, each leading a horse.
The four people were a young man in white, two young women, and an old servant in gray with white hair and beard.
The young man in white who was leading the group was handsome and elegant.
Two women followed closely behind. They were dressed as maids, one in red and the other in green, and they were quite pretty.
The gray-clothed old servant who was left at the end seemed to be no simple person either. His eyes were like lightning and his face was engraved with traces of time.
Although he looked a little old, he walked steadily and his hands holding the reins were strong and sturdy.
The four men led the horses all the way out of Hulu Village. After arriving at the village entrance, they mounted their horses.
"Hello~"
The four men rode forward and soon arrived at the entrance of the valley.
Whoosh~ Suddenly, an arrow shot straight from the front.
"Young Master, be careful!"
The gray-clothed old servant yelled urgently, grabbed a flying knife with his flip hand, and threw it out.
Dang! The flying knife and the cold arrow collided in the air half a meter in front of the young man in white.
The flying knife bounced off and the arrow was knocked away.
"Hi, hi, hi!"
The four horses stopped at the same time.
The four people riding on the horses looked tense and raised their heads to look around.
But the next moment! A masked man in black swaggered out and walked straight in front of the four people.
Fang Zhixing showed up in such a grand manner.
Seeing this, Ma Zhengming on the other side also rushed over and landed next to Fang Zhixing.
Fang Zhixing cupped his hands and asked, "Are you Xiang Wenhong?"
The young man in white was silent for a moment, then replied, "I will not change my name, and I will not change my surname. I am here, what can I do for you?"
Fang Zhixing replied: "I am here to kill you."
Xiang Wenhong looked around and asked in surprise, "Are there only two of you?"
When Ma Zhengming heard this, he immediately snorted and shouted, "Why, do you think we are too few in number?"
Xiang Wenhong grinned and said, "Xiang is the young master of the Red Flower Society. The Luo family wants to kill me in order to root out the problem. To ensure that nothing goes wrong, why would they only send the two of you?"
Ma Zhengming was stunned and speechless for a moment.
Yes, if Xiang Wenhong has a lot of followers around him, or if he tries to escape for his life, it would not be easy to keep him with just him and Fang Zhixing.
Fang Zhixing asked with great interest: "From what you said, is there something else going on?"
"certainly!"
Xiang Wenhong nodded and said, "The Luo family actually sent out many assassins, but only the two of you encountered me."
After hearing this, Ma Zhengming was confused and didn't understand what was going on.
Fang Zhixing's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.
Xiang Wenhong explained slowly, "I knew there was a traitor from the Luo family inside Honghuamen, and my whereabouts would be exposed sooner or later, so I simply took advantage of the situation and deliberately arranged thirty escape routes, which I then leaked to the traitor.
Then, if the Luo family wants to kill me, they can only send out people to ambush along these thirty routes and wait for the opportunity."
He chuckled, "Congratulations, you two, you are really lucky. You chose this one out of thirty routes."
Ma Zhengming's breathing stagnated, and a great sense of uneasiness gradually arose in his heart.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Xiang Wenhong dug a big hole, and he and Fang Zhixing were extremely unlucky and happened to fall into the trap set by others.
Fang Zhixing curled his lips and said, "What a good plan! Not only can you use this opportunity to disperse the Luo family's power, but you can also follow the clues to find out who the traitor is, right?"
"Ha ha!"
Xiang Wenhong laughed triumphantly, suddenly turned over and jumped up, and with a whistling sound, he slapped the air with his palm.
Bang! The maid in green riding on the horse trembled, flew forward, and fell headfirst in front of Fang Zhixing.
"Wow~"
The maid in green spat out a large mouthful of blood, and there was a clear palm print on her back which was deeply sunken.
She turned her head painfully, looked at Xiang Wenhong with a cold expression, and spat out blood, saying: "You, when did you..."
Xiang Wenhong's eyes were blazing with fire, and he said angrily: "Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing, when I first met you, you were curled up in a pigsty and were about to starve to death. I rescued you and not only provided you with food and clothing, but also taught you to read and write, and treated you well.
I never expected that the person who betrayed me was right beside me all along. Because of your leak, so many brothers died innocently!"
Before she could finish her words, the maid in green fell headfirst. The light in her eyes quickly faded, and it was obvious that she was not going to survive.
Fang Zhixing clapped his hands and praised: "You are so ruthless in destroying flowers. It's amazing."
Xiang Wenhong said coldly: "Aren't you two going to run away? It's impossible for you to kill me with the strength boosted by the poison like the Limit Breaking Pill!"
Fang Zhixing responded: "How can we know if we don't try?"
Xiang Wenhong laughed and sneered: "You lackeys of the aristocratic families really don't know how to live or die."
He turned to look at the gray-clothed old servant and the red-clothed maid, and said sternly, "Let's make a quick decision. We will take the boat and leave Qinghe County today. Sooner or later, we will come back to fight."
"Yes, young master!"
The gray-clothed old servant exerted force with his legs, then leaped into the air and pounced on Fang Zhixing.
The maid in red first reached for her waist, and suddenly pulled out a soft sword. Then she jumped off the horse and quickly rushed towards Ma Zhengming.
Fang Zhixing raised his head, and the figure of the old servant in gray was reflected in his pupils.
He stretched out his arms like a roc spreading its wings, raised his feet high, and stomped down on my head.
Only then did I realize that the movement was drifting and then retreating.
Boom~ The earth shakes!
It was as if a bolt of lightning struck the ground, creating a huge hole, stirring up dust and spreading out a circular air wave.
The old servant in gray stood in the pit and raised his head.
At this moment, his legs suddenly became longer and his height reached two meters and five.
At first glance, it looks like the soles of your feet are on stilts!
Fang Zhixing focused his gaze and found that the gray-clothed old servant's legs had become abnormally thick, like two iron pillars, bursting his trousers.
"What a magical kick!"
Fang Zhixing praised gently.
This old servant in gray is obviously from the spirit ape family.
Moreover, his cultivation has already broken through to the Five Animals Realm and he has mastered the secret of balance.
The so-called balance is not as simple as achieving a balance between the four departments, but more about perfectly controlling one's own power.
For example, the old servant in gray is of the spirit ape type. After mastering the balance, the strength of toughness is directly maximized, and the other three types serve as support, like a perfect pyramid.
Judging from the power of that kick just now, the gray-clothed old servant's strength is about 100,000 pounds.
"You actually managed to dodge?"
The gray-clothed old servant was slightly surprised. He mainly used leg techniques, and his toughness and agility were his greatest advantages.
He had been merciless in that kick just now, and both the power and speed were astonishing.
Unexpectedly, nothing was achieved!
“Come again!”
The gray-clothed old servant was unwilling to give in, so he suddenly exerted force with his feet and rushed out. His movement was so fast that he left a blurry afterimage.
He quickly rushed to Fang Zhixing, moved to the side with a flash of his body, raised his right leg, and shot out with devastating speed.
The long legs broke through the air and swept towards Fang Zhixing's neck.
"Well, you have some strength, but not much."
Fang Zhixing raised his right hand and suddenly grabbed.
Bang! The gray-clothed old servant's right leg suddenly stopped in mid-air, and Fang Zhixing unexpectedly grabbed his calf firmly.
“Ah, this!”
The gray-robed old servant turned pale with horror, unable to believe it.
The next moment, he was pulled up, spun around, and fell to the ground.
Bang! A crack appeared in the ground, smoke and dust rolled up, and leaves fluttered.
The old servant in gray felt as if his whole body was falling apart and he was knocked unconscious.
Fang Zhixing let go of his hand.
The gray-clothed old servant immediately rolled on the ground, created some distance, and then leaped up with a somersault.
But his old eyes blurred and Fang Zhixing suddenly disappeared from his sight, and then he felt a chill in his lower back.
A leg lashed out like an iron whip.
Too fast! The gray-robed old servant was caught off guard and could only tense up and mobilize his muscles to defend himself.
Bang! A powerful kick came and hit the old servant in gray heavily on the waist.
The gray-clothed old servant did not fly out, but his waist was bent sharply and his body was almost folded sideways.
"Well!!"
The gray-clothed old servant opened his eyes wide, with endless fear on his face.
His head hit his ankle and one of his vertebrae was completely broken.
After a few seconds, the old servant in gray was no longer alive.
"Uncle Fu!"
Xiang Wenhong was horrified, his breathing stopped instantly, and his scalp went numb.
The gray-clothed old servant is a master in the late Five Animals Realm. Even though he is a little older, he still maintains the combat power of a mid-Five Animals Realm.
I never expected...
Xiang Wenhong stared at Fang Zhixing with his eyes wide open, his expression quickly turning ugly.
Fang Zhixing hooked his finger and said with a smile: "Come on, let's see if I am lucky today or you are lucky!"
Xiang Wenhong sucked in a breath of cold air, veins popped out on his forehead, and said coldly: "Good fellow, it turns out that you are also in the Five Animals Realm, but I underestimated you."
He dismounted from his horse, reached into his bosom, pulled out a small black brocade box and opened it.
There is a black pill in the brocade box.
Gurgle~ Xiang Wenhong swallowed it in one gulp.
Fang Zhixing was speechless and sneered, "Are you so unconfident in yourself?"
