Chapter 38 The murderous Yuyulou Heavenly Killer 14
Chapter 38 The murderous Xingyulou Tiansha (14)
The night wind blew the crabapple trees in the courtyard, and occasionally there were a few cicadas chirping.
When you are ugly.
The door to the west wing was gently pushed open, and Nan Xian jumped over the high wall with ease.
Her current martial arts skills should have no problem facing three or four ground kills from the Xingyu Tower, but she knew nothing about the terrain and guards of the Xingyu Tower, so she still had to be careful.
Can Ye said that A Ruo was not dead and she wanted to find A Ruo.
After carefully walking a few hundred meters, Nanxian discovered that the structure of Xingyu Tower was not very complicated.
She groped as she walked, secretly writing down the path she took.
On the road, he met three teams of killers who were patrolling at night. Nanxian was worried that there were masters among them, so he carefully hid in the shadow corners and held his breath vigilantly to slow down his heartbeat.
Nan Xian breathed a sigh of relief after finding Baoyan Tower without any danger.
The entire Baoyan Building was shrouded in the thick night, and the building was so quiet that it was a bit eerie.
Baoyan Building has three floors. Nan Xian saw many tables, chairs and windows for serving meals on the first floor. This should be the most common place in the building for killers to eat.
I quietly climbed up to the second floor. The tables and chairs here were obviously more refined and luxurious than those on the first floor.
Nan Xian came down from the third floor, feeling relieved.
The Baoyan Building is also divided into levels. The third floor is where the heavenly killers eat, and the decoration is the most luxurious and gorgeous. The second floor is where the earthly killers eat. The first floor is where the ordinary killers eat.
Under the cover of night, Nan Xian thought for a while and walked towards the backyard connected to the kitchen.
Since the cook and the maid did not live in the Baoyan Building, they most likely lived in the row of low old houses in the backyard that were connected to the woodshed.
Suddenly, Nan Xian stopped and hid behind the wall.
There was a faint cry from ahead.
In this silent night, I suddenly heard the misty sobbing cry of a woman, which sent a chill down my spine.
Nan Xian quietly poked his head out and looked in the direction of the crying.
I saw something burning in a copper basin under the big tree in the courtyard. The tongues of fire crackled and sparks as long as arms flew out. The red firelight reflected the woman's tearful face.
Nan Xian watched silently for a while, listening to the woman's cry.
"Qingqing, I burned all your favorite hairpins and clothes to you. If you see it in heaven, you must bless me. I don't want to die. I really don't want to die!
Aruo was also taken away by Master Lengliu, will I be the next one? I'm so scared, I'm so scared, Qingqing, I really want to leave here, I really want to go back to Jiangnan, what should I do..."
In the huge courtyard, the woman's cry echoed for a long time.
Nan Xian did not take action directly. He observed for a while and saw that no one came out of the backyard. Then he showed up and knocked the crying woman unconscious with a knife. He carried her and ran to the third floor of Baoyan Building, where she pinched her and woke her up.
Seeing that she was awake, Nan Xian covered her mouth with a fierce expression: "You answer whatever I ask, don't talk nonsense, or I will kill you!"
The woman's face was still stained with tears. After hearing this, she looked at her in horror and nodded.
Nan Xian slowly let go of his hand: "Who are you? How did you come to Xingyu Tower?"
"I...I am a famous singer from Jiangnan, and I was arrested." What else did she want to ask, but she remembered Nan Xian asking her not to talk nonsense, so she swallowed it down, and suddenly a glimmer of light came into her eyes when she looked at Nan Xian.
"You just said that Aruo was taken away by Lengliu. Who is Lengliu? Why did he take Aruo away?"
"Master Lengliu is the one who brought me and Sister Qingqing to Xingyu Building. He is the subordinate of that building owner. I don't know why he took Aruo away, but none of the people who were taken away came back alive!"
Nan Xian frowned. Sansheng was surrounded by two killer guards whose names she didn't know.
Lengliu should be one of them.
If Aruo was taken away by the cold current, there is no need to say where he was taken.
While she was pondering, the woman suddenly choked and grabbed her hand helplessly.
"You are the girl who lives in Fusheng Garden, right? Aruo told me about you and your martial arts skills. Can you take me out of here? Please!"
"Qingqing is dead. Tomorrow it will be my turn to sing. I will die too! I will die too!"
The woman cried and murmured, her eyes full of despair: "There were seven of us when we came here. We are all the famous singers who sing the best songs in Jiangnan, but the landlord is not satisfied with any of them. If he is not satisfied, he will kill people...
"
A trace of pity flashed across Nan Xian's eyes, but she definitely couldn't take Qing Qing away now.
Since you can't, don't give the other party hope.
Nan Xian pursed her lips: "Do you know when A Ruo's sister A Sheng disappeared?"
"It seems like... six months. Qingqing and I were arrested a month ago. When I came here, I only saw Aruo. Aruo has been looking for her sister. I also learned about her sister from her mouth.
Asheng has been missing for six months.
Ah Sheng must be dead, A Ruo...A Ruo may also be..."
The woman burst into tears. Thinking of the consequences she was about to face, she choked up and couldn't speak anymore.
Nan Xian stood up, took out a silk handkerchief and handed it over: "Don't cry. Although I can't help you escape, you can work hard to save your life."
Hearing this, the woman looked at her with red eyes.
"The owner of Xingyulou once lived in a farmhouse in the south of the Yangtze River. The Jiangnan tunes he wanted to listen to may not be the famous tunes that are popular now, but the simple and simple farmhouse tunes from a few years ago."
"You don't need to have superb pipa skills. A simple and cheerful a cappella song may be enough."
Nan Xian used several possibilities because she was not sure either. She only made guesses based on some changes in Sansheng's expressions when she listened to the music yesterday, and by associating the known plot.
Sansheng suddenly wanted to eat rice cakes, a Jiangnan farm snack, and suddenly wanted to listen to Jiangnan tunes.
This proves that in Jiangnan, he has had wonderful (nightmare) memories that are engraved in his heart.
Nan Xian put away her divergent thoughts, did not talk to the heroine anymore, and decided to find San Sheng's residence before dawn.
As the owner of Xingyu Tower, it is not difficult to find Sansheng's residence, but getting in is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Nan Xian secretly took note of the number of people guarding in the open and in the dark.
Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, I gave up my plan to find out what happened all night and quietly returned to Fusheng Garden.
The fifteenth day promised by Can Ye and San Sheng is getting closer and closer.
She was also a little anxious, so she didn't sleep and practiced her internal strength until dawn.
Can Ye and Guangyin went down the mountain on the twelfth day.
Nan Xian saw the words engraved on the winter melon sent by Baoyan Tower: "Thank you, girl."
She destroyed the winter melon skin with an expressionless face and made a plate of braised winter melon.
In the next two days, Nan Xian spent half of the day practicing internal skills and the other half of the time practicing the sword skills he had mastered in his previous life and the moves he had seen in this world.
At night, I went to explore the area around Sansheng's residence hall.
It's a pity that the palace is tightly guarded, with killers guarding the four corners of the building.
Nan Xian did not dare to take risks, so he could only squat outside the palace every night, waiting for opportunities.
