Chapter 871 The golden cicada escapes from its shell
"Yue Lifeng, you have no way to escape, just suffer death."
After Qian Xiaoxiao's cold words fell, the black light in his hand turned into a spiked chain, and he shot out fiercely, piercing Gongsun Huan's chest. Immediately afterwards, several black energy also turned into a chain, stabbing several bloody wounds on the opponent's body one after another.
Come to the cave.
More than ten chains pierced Gongsun Huan. Qian Xiaoxiao raised his right palm forward and grasped it from a distance. He saw the black air rolling, and the chains were like flying snakes. They began to wrap around Gongsun Huan and expand. Finally, he heard a "bang".
With a sound, blood mist filled the sky.
Gongsun Huan didn't even utter a scream. His whole body was as if he had been fished out of a vat soaked in blood, and he was transformed into a bloody man.
Seeing this, Qian Xiaoxiao slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. There was a crisp sound, and the chain turned into black air and disappeared into the surroundings. Then, very quickly, all the rolling black air disappeared without a trace.
She stepped forward, raising her toes slightly, and she kicked Gongsun Huan's pale mask to the side, revealing an ordinary and calm face underneath.
Qian Xiaoxiao was a little surprised, this was not the face she had seen belonging to Yue Lifeng.
Huangfu Xiaoyuan, who came from behind, could tell at a glance that this face belonged to Wu Ying, the groom of the Huo family.
Needless to say, the real Thousand-faced Dharma King should have successfully escaped. Not only did the other party change his identity and escape long ago, he also left behind such a mocking face. This shows that despite such a pursuit, the other party still has some strength left.
.
"Is this him?" Qian Xiaoxiao seemed a little unconvinced.
"Maybe." Huangfu Xiaoyuan said calmly: "It is rumored that Yue Lifeng of the Xiaoyao Sect is proficient in the art of disguise, so I'm afraid you have never seen his true face."
Qian Xiaoxiao was thoughtful, looking at the body lying on the ground, he felt relieved suddenly.
After a chase just now, this man's tactics were endless, which was indeed in line with her expectations of this terrible man. At this moment, the man finally died in her hands, and the boulder that had been in her heart was finally able to be moved away.
Qian Xiaoxiao was relieved. After confirming that the person in front of her was completely dead, she immediately turned around and left, as if she couldn't wait any longer.
Huangfu Xiaoyuan did not follow him. After Qian's small figure disappeared, she slowly leaned down, carefully inspected the side of the corpse's cheek, and then took off the mask.
Under the human skin mask, there was still a face that had never been seen before. The legend of thousands of people with thousands of faces was not unfounded. Although the "Thousand-faced Dharma King" they saw did not have as unparalleled martial arts as the other one,
It seems that he can also fake his own death to escape.
"Come here." Huangfu Xiaoyuan called softly.
"I have met you, sir." Five guards in golden robes walked out of the forest and respectfully came to Huangfu Xiaoyuan.
"Go check and see if you can dig out something." Huangfu Xiaoyuan pointed at the dead body and ordered to the five people.
"Yes." Five people responded, and four of them immediately started looking for useful clues on the corpse.
The remaining person listened to Huangfu Xiaoyuan's next instructions: "Send a message to your lord, the saint of Xuantian Sect failed to succeed, Qianmian is still alive."
"I understand," the man agreed, and then asked, "In this case, should we let the brothers continue to investigate?"
"No need."
Huangfu Xiaoyuan shook her head and said: "Since Qianmian was able to pull off such a trick under my nose, I'm afraid he had the ability to escape easily from the beginning. If you pursue him, it will only be in vain to leave one more body behind."
"
I'm afraid that after Gongsun Huan escaped into the dense forest, everything was completely out of their control, and the other party still left some room. Can it be said that he was worthy of being the protector of the Xuantian Sect? He was indeed extraordinary.
...
The news that Gongsun Huan successfully escaped has not yet been sent back, but even if it is sent back, Lu Hanjiang will not think anything of it. Although this person is playful, he cannot be naive enough to completely trust the information he provided. He has a back-up plan.
certain.
Moreover, now Lu Hanjiang has almost confirmed that behind this Thousand-faced Dharma King is probably the real Gongsun Huan, the head of the Gongsun family.
With this level of identity, the other party can escape. In his opinion, it is worthy of the other party's identity.
In this regard, Lu Hanjiang had no intention of blocking him. The role played by the other party this time was just a passer-by on the stage. This was not Gongsun Huan's stage, so if the other party escaped, it was okay to escape.
Anyway, half of the final debt will go to Yue Lifeng, and the other half will naturally go to Qian Xiaoxiao. What does it have to do with him, Lu Hanjiang?
Although the method and identity were expected, the result was already in his mind. The only thing that exceeded Lu Hanjiang's estimate was probably the people who wanted to kill Gongsun Huan, which was indeed a lot.
Only after the body that failed in the assassination was found, Lu Hanjiang was able to find traces of Tian Du Weeping Heart on it, and discovered that the Crown Princess had also secretly acted this time.
Of course, these are things for later. At this moment, Lu Hanjiang is still dealing with another little trouble.
"Three of you, I'm the head catcher here, my surname is Xu, and my last name is the character for river. I have something to do, so please move on for a moment."
The speaker was a strong man, about thirty years old, with a rough beard that stretched across his cheeks, a pair of piercing tiger eyes, a horizontal knife on his waist, and a token in his hand. He was blocking the path of the three of them, obviously.
It was an official interrogation, but paired with the dignity of the other party, it sounded like a bandit's robbery.
It has to be said that this experience gave both Tianquan and Shangguan Beicang an unexpected sense of freshness. One of them is a Taoist priest who has lived in the mountains for a long time, and the other is a rich young master with great wealth. Almost all of them are officials like police officers.
The presence of insulation.
In fact, not to mention them, even Lu Hanjiang encountered this kind of thing for the first time, but his situation was special. Think about it, which yamen policeman would be brave enough to question the leader of the Jinyiwei.
The three of them looked at each other for a while, then Tianquan came forward and clasped his fists and asked: "This official official brother, why did you ask me to wait?"
There is a forest on the east side of the capital, which is dense and wide. This is where the three of them are, and the catcher named Xu He is guarding in front of the trail into the forest.
Hearing Tianquan's question, Xu He put away the token and said seriously: "Chaos occurred in Dongdu a while ago, and many people died in the countryside outside the city. This police chief is investigating the matter."
Xu He's words made Lu Hanjiang behind him stunned. Speaking of the situation of dead people outside Dongdu, they were probably the informants of various parties lurking here. He had killed them all before and ordered the Jin Yiwei to clean them up.
Ordinarily, this kind of thing cannot be mentioned openly, but the local officials are not fools. This kind of thing happens over and over again, but there is no sound coming down from above. Even if you guessed it, you knew there was something wrong.
It's not that the Yamen didn't send people to investigate these matters, but they soon found some dead people, all of whom were people with unclear identities, so they left it alone.
As the head catcher of the yamen, Xu He shouldn't have received this kind of news, otherwise he wouldn't be here alone to investigate like a thief. But now that he knows, and still chooses to do this, we can only say that either the other party's
The idea is indeed different, or there is something unspeakable.
