Chapter 116 Falling into the Devil's Claw

Yun Zhongting drew out his sword and slashed at the shoulder of the man in black.

The man in black quickly dodged and swung his sword towards Yunzhong Ting.

The two of them were fighting each other as they went back and forth.

"It's not a big deal to fight in someone's home for a long time!" Yun Zhongting thought about it, then jumped out of the wall and ran straight to the back mountain.

After running for a while, Yun Zhongting turned around and saw the man in black following him.

Yun Zhongting simply stopped, stood firm, and held the knife in his hand.

The man in black was more than ten steps away from Yunzhong Ting, and he stopped and looked at him silently.

Under the scorching sun, in a mountain valley, with the rustling autumn wind and falling yellow leaves, two men in black stood silently, their skirts dancing.

Time seemed to have stopped.

Yun Zhongting thought to himself, "Who are you? It seems you have bad intentions! If you don't move, I won't move either! Let's see who can outsmart the other!"

Yun Zhongting was suddenly alerted by the neighing of a war horse, and saw a black horse running towards the mountain pass in the south. Immediately, a person sat upright, came to the man in black, flew off the horse, handed a letter with both hands, and then flew on the horse again.

Go away from the dust.

"Yun Zhongting, you are lucky today. I have important matters to attend to, so I won't quarrel with you any more! See you later!" With that said, the man in black turned around and headed north, and suddenly disappeared.

Yun Zhong was completely confused after hearing this, "What on earth is going on? Who is this man in black? How can he come and leave at the drop of a hat!"

Yun Zhongting couldn't help but become more and more confused as he thought about all his experiences since he came to Zicun Mountain to look for Grandma Qin.

Yun Zhongting felt that his two visits to Huangtian Villa were unsuccessful, which aroused his interest even more. Yun Zhongting thought that there must be secrets there, and decided to go to Huangtian Villa to find out.

"Dead bodies blocking the road, being followed, losing horses, fighting, and men in black, how can these unrelated things be connected together?" Yun Zhongting was puzzled.

He found the carriage, got inside, felt tired, and soon fell asleep.

When he woke up, Yun Zhongting found that he was tied to a big tree. Two white-faced scholar-looking people were sitting on the chairs opposite, drinking tea. Behind them stood several tall and thick men.

Seeing Yun Zhongting wake up, the two people burst out laughing.

"Who are you? You actually sneaked into our villa twice! You are so brave!" said the fatter one.

"Brother, what nonsense are you talking to him? Just chop it off and it will be over. It will save worry and effort!" said another thinner man.

"Second brother! Your statement is too radical. We must at least find out who he is and what he is doing before we can kill him!" the elder brother said in a mocking tone.

These two people are the eldest and second villa owners of Huangtian Villa. The fat one is called Huang Tu, who is the bigger one, and the second one is called Huang Shui, who is thinner.

"Tell me! What's your name?" Huang Shui shouted.

Yun Zhongting said nothing.

"Second brother! Don't be too loud, don't scare others! We are scholars, so we need to be gentle and refined in our speech!" Huang Tu looked at Huang Shui and said.

Yun Zhongting still didn't speak and lowered his head.

Huang Shui's complexion suddenly turned into the color of dust, and he pulled out the knife with a clatter.

Yun Zhongting raised his head and looked at him, "Why! You want to kill me! Even if I give you the courage, you wouldn't dare!"

When he opened his mouth to speak, Huang Shui lost his anger, smiled, and put the knife into the scabbard again.

"Then tell me! Where are you from? What are you doing here?" said Huang Tu with a pleasant look.

"I am a businessman, selling furs. The day before yesterday, my goods were robbed on the way. I followed the robbers and saw them entering your villa. Do you dare to say that this has nothing to do with you?" Yun Zhongting immediately made up.

A set of lies.

When Huang Tian heard this from Yun Zhong, he immediately turned to Huang Shui, as if the second owner of the village was indeed such a robber.

Yun Zhongting thought about it for a while and felt that there was a way, so he continued: "My horse was also stolen, and it was your fault! It must be! It seems that I have fallen into a den of thieves.

!”

"Stop talking nonsense! Who is the robber? Who robbed your fur and what kind of broken horse?" Huang Shui, the second owner of the village, said in a much tougher tone.

"Ouch! I am now a piece of fish on the chopping board, being slaughtered by others. Do I still dare to talk nonsense?" Yun Zhongting argued hard.

In this way, the big village owner Huang Tu actually believed it.

But Huang Shui, the second owner of the village, was angry, blaming his eldest brother for listening to outsiders' words and doubting his own younger brother.

Yun Zhongting's lies bought him time to survive. That afternoon, he was taken to the prison of Huangtian Villa, but was not executed immediately.

When Yun Zhong heard that he was in prison, he fell to the ground and slept.

After the jailer left, Yun Zhongting immediately stood up and carefully examined the surrounding situation, remembering everything in his mind.

He had a hunch that Grandma Qin was very likely to have some connection with this place.

After dark, Yun Zhongting broke free from the rope. After all, the prison in Huangtian Villa was not a government prison and was not so strict. Yun Zhongting managed to get out without much effort.

After he came out, he covered his face and went straight to the tall houses in the north that he had observed last night.

At this time, there were no lights at all in those rooms, and it was pitch black.

"What on earth is going on? Why is it dark today?" Yun Zhongting thought silently.

Yun Zhongting gently came to the outside of the row of houses. He couldn't see anything clearly inside, and it was still locked. "It seems that there is something important in the house." Yun Zhongting thought.

"I have to think of a way to go in and see what's inside!" He thought as he walked around the house to see if any windows were open.

By chance, one of the windows had a crack, so he took out his knife, pried it open, and got in.

After Yun Zhong heard this, he felt that the air in the room was overwhelming, cold to the bone, and invaded his heart.

He moved slowly, afraid of bumping into something.

Suddenly, he was patted on the back. It still had the same cold and hard feeling last night. His heart suddenly jumped. This time, he did not reach back to grab the hand, but quickly dodged it.

opened.

Yun Zhongting took out his sword and flashed it aside, using the little light from the crack in the window to carefully observe the unknown thing in front of him.

The thing flashed in front of him and disappeared.

"We are in trouble this time!" Yun Zhongting thought, calmed down, looked in all directions, and carefully searched for any movement around him.
