Bloodstained Hero's Clothes

Chapter 154

Murong Villa.

The Black Lotus Lord squinted at Murong Hong, waiting for him to give himself an explanation.

Murong Hong had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "This subordinate is not doing well, please calm down, Your Excellency."

"Hmph! Didn't you say you caught the weakness of the villain Qingfeng, why did you fail again?" Black Lotus Master sneered.

Murong Hong hurriedly defended, "We're all to blame for that Wei Shanqiu, who underestimated the ability of the villain Qingfeng..."

The Black Lotus Lord interrupted him and asked, "Wei Shanqiu? Is that the helper you mentioned? What's wrong with him?"

"He was burned to death on the tower." Murong Hong lowered his head and said.

"Dead? Then the Qingfeng villain can't be caught?" Black Lotus Lord raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Although he's dead, we already know the weakness of the Qingfeng villain. As long as we arrest that little girl again, the Qingfeng villain will definitely not be able to escape!" Murong Hong hurriedly said.

"But how did I hear that the men you sent to arrest people hit a nail?" Black Lotus Master asked coldly.

Murong Hong was startled, he didn't expect that the Black Lotus Master usually didn't go out, but he was very well informed, he didn't dare to hide it, and explained: "That little girl is protected by experts secretly."

"A master? Where did you come from?" Black Lotus Lord asked.

"It's from the Yixingmen!" Murong Hong hurriedly replied.

"Yixingmen?" The Black Lotus Lord thought for a while and said, "Could it be that the villain Qingfeng is working for Yixingmen?"

"This point is still under investigation." Murong Hong said.

"If people from Yixingmen want to protect that little girl, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to succeed." Hei Lianhua said.

Murong Hong frowned upon hearing this.

"Didn't you say last time that you still have a hand?" asked the Black Lotus Lord.

"Ah! By the way, this subordinate has invited the well-known master of poisoning in Jianghu, 'Poison Traveling Thousands of Miles', to go out. We will definitely catch the villain Qingfeng by then." Murong Hong became full of confidence again.

"What does this 'Poison travels a thousand miles' have anything to do with the arrest of the Qingfeng villain?" asked the Lord of the Black Lotus.

"My lord doesn't know that the reason why the government has been unable to catch the villain Qingfeng is not only because of his strong martial arts, but also because the people love him very much. If the people help him hide his identity, it will be even more difficult to arrest him. It's even more difficult." Murong Hong explained.

"Can this 'poison travels a thousand miles' make the people no longer support the villain Qingfeng?" The Black Lotus Lord disagreed.

Murong Hong said: "'Poison travels a thousand miles' to poison the people, it will definitely attract the Qingfeng villain to stop it, and then we can vigorously round him up. If the Qingfeng villain does not show up for a long time..."

"He lost the trust of the common people." Master Hei Lianhua said, "You just found a bait."

Murong Hong hurriedly said: "My lord, please don't underestimate this 'poisoner'. He has been famous in the world for a long time. If he poisons the people, it is not just a simple poisoning incident of the people. It's very big, if the villain Qingfeng doesn't stop it, the consequences will be unimaginable. This is completely different from other cats and dogs poisoning the people..."

"You're just forcing the villain Qingfeng to take action." The Black Lotus Lord said.

"The villain Qingfeng is extremely cunning, I'm afraid he won't fall for it!" Murong Hong explained, "If he doesn't act this time, he will not only lose the trust of the people, but also lose his reputation in the world..."

The Black Lotus Lord said impatiently: "Okay, don't talk nonsense. Just say that this 'poison travels thousands of miles' is not a member of our sect, why is he willing to be this bait?"

"The subordinates have their own tricks." Murong Hong said pretending to be mysterious.

"When can this person do it?" Lord Black Lotus asked.

"Arrive in Beijing tomorrow at the latest." Murong Hong replied.

"Let me handle this matter well, and no more mistakes will be allowed!" The Black Lotus Master shouted.

"I obey." Murong Hong clapped his hands in response.

After bidding farewell to Aunt Zhao, Ling'er suddenly remembered that Uncle Song must have returned to the capital, so she walked towards Risheng Inn.

Walking into Risheng Inn, Ling'er saw Song Jian sitting there drinking tea.

"Uncle Song, you're back!" Ling'er quickly approached.

"Come on, Ling'er, sit down and drink some tea to quench your thirst." Song Jian said with a smile, "I heard that you came to see Uncle me yesterday, and Uncle is here to wait for you specially today."

"You have been waiting for a long time! When did you return to the capital?" Linger asked with a smile.

"I just arrived in the evening last night, and I encountered some incidents on the road that delayed me for a while." Song Jiandao, "It's not peaceful in the capital now! I met people from all walks of life from the Demon Sect, the Hundred Poisons Sect, and the Black Lotus Sect. Go to the capital."

"The Devil's Cult and the Black Lotus Sect originally wanted to form an alliance, but it has been successfully stopped by Yixingmen. Why is the Hundred Poisons Sect coming to join forces? Is it true that they want to take the opportunity to form an alliance with the Black Lotus Sect as Brother Qi Dian said? ?” Linger asked.

"It's not impossible." Song Jian said with a smile, "Ling'er and Qi Dian are already very familiar, right?"

Ling'er said shyly, "Brother Qi Dian is very nice, he will patiently tell me anything I ask him."

"What about Qingfeng Xia?" Song Jian asked with a smile.

Ling'er curled her lips and said, "He cared too little about Qingfengxia's affairs! He didn't even know that Qingfengxia was injured last night." After speaking, Linger lowered her eyes sadly.

"Last night? I didn't hear that Qingfeng Xia showed up last night!" Song Jian said.

"He was injured to save me." Linger said sadly.

"Could it be... a bandage wrapped around Ling'er's neck?" Song Jian asked.

"Well, it's just a little bit of skin damage. But Qingfengxia got an arrow to save me." Ling'er recalled the situation at that time, and tears couldn't help falling down.

Song Jian sighed lightly, and patted Linger's arm to comfort her.

Ling'er gently wiped away her tears, and asked softly, "Uncle Song, have you got any results from your investigation?"

Song Jian said in a low voice: "There was no cyan fabric on the purchase list I was following, and they were very cautious. So I went to Chicheng in person, and finally confirmed that there was cyan fabric in the batch of fabrics, although the quantity was not much .But there is no blue cloth for sale in their cloth shop."

"Which cloth shop is it?" Linger asked softly.

"Bucai Cloth, the largest cloth supplier in the capital." Song Jian whispered.

"It's under Qi Yang's name?" Linger asked softly after confirming that no one was paying attention.

"Hehe, it seems that Ling'er has also investigated a lot." Song Jian said with a smile.

"It turns out that Uncle Song has already suspected him." Ling'er said.

"At first, I got the words out of Xiao Yizi's mouth. Later, I investigated secretly a few times, but unfortunately there was no definite evidence." Song Jian said in a low voice, "Young hero Qiyang has extraordinary skills, so it is reasonable to speculate."

Linger nodded.

After saying goodbye to Song Jian, Ling'er went to Wenxiangfang.

"Sister, the spice you sent is extremely rare!" Sister Mei said excitedly when she saw Ling'er, "I only read about this magical spice in an ancient book, but I didn't expect it to be real. .”

"Is that really a spice? It doesn't even have a smell." Linger was puzzled.

"This kind of spice is called 'Yinxiang'." Sister Mei said, and took out a beautiful box from the cabinet, which contained the plants that Linger brought.

"'Yinxiang'?" Linger said in surprise, "Does it mean that it can hide its own smell?"

Sister Mei said inscrutably: "The magic of 'Yinxiang' is that it not only hides its own smell, but also covers up all the surrounding smells after being burned."
