Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 117
Chapter 117 Female Swordswoman
Instead of walking, it was more like “floating”!
In the darkness of the night, none of Qin Mubai’s group could clearly see how the other party moved. If it weren’t for the exceptional vigilance of hearing after special training, most people wouldn’t have noticed that the other party was already approaching.
Hearing Qin Mubai and the others shouting angrily, the other party stopped.
“You are not ordinary people. You can actually hear my footsteps.”
Qin Mubai and the others frowned at the same time, “It’s indeed a woman!”
His voice was still very young. If it weren’t for the frightening voice in the graveyard in the dark night, this woman’s voice was actually quite pleasant to hear.
Qin Mubai gestured for the knife to be put away and then said, “Who is this young lady? Why did she appear here in the middle of the night?”
“I should be the one asking you.” The other party’s voice was as cold as ice. There was almost no trace of emotion in it. He said indifferently, “Why did you come to this lonely grave in the middle of the night?”
“Mourn the dead.” Qin Mubai replied.
“Why not offer a memorial service during the day?” The female voice said, “Unless you have some shady business!”
“Impudent!” A soldier angrily scolded, “My general came to pay his respects to Zhu Chengwen, this ghost soul. It’s your turn to teach him!”
“You’re courting death!!!”
With a ferocious and tender reprimand, the other party actually made a move all of a sudden!
The phantom was like a sword, and she didn’t know what kind of marvelous movement technique that woman had used, but she actually flew over so calmly. The night was as dark as ink, but a trace of cold light reflected the only starlight that flashed past.
“What a fast sword!” The three of them were shocked at the same time.
There was no need for Qin Mubai to say anything, but the two pawns beside him drew their sabers and attacked
“Bang, bang, bang!”
In an instant, after a few rounds, two miserable screams were heard. The two hundred cavalry soldiers actually fell to the ground left and right, covering the same place-their right shoulders and shoulders fell to the ground.
Qin Mubai was shocked. What a powerful martial art! The Hundred Cavalry Soldiers were already able to defeat an ordinary strong soldier by one versus ten. They were actually defeated by this female swordswoman with two versus one in three moves!
Cow!
After the two pawns fell to the ground, they didn’t care about the pain, and in an instant, a carp stood up and flipped over again. Before they could stand firmly, the phantom appeared in front of them like a spark and kicked at the empty door and the middle acupoint in front of their chests.
Its speed was so fast that Qin Mubai almost had a hallucination.
This woman’s martial arts were too powerful!
With two miserable screams, the two Baiji soldiers could no longer stand up. He covered his chest and stomach and rolled and twitched on the ground.
With a “whoosh” sound, a sword was handed to Qin Mubai’s throat.
Qin Mubai did not move. Her eyes were like torches, but she could not see her face clearly. She wore a hat that was like a bamboo hat, but with a long black silk scarf hanging down from the edge, covering her shoulders.
But Qin Mubai saw a pair of extremely beautiful and cold eyes.
His eyes were like stars and moons, slightly curved, and his eyelashes were very long. However, there was an infinite killing intent and hostility in his eyes, and there was also a faint look of despair that was filled with pain and despair.
Qin Mubai recalled a post she had read on the Internet before. The woman with long eyelashes was likely to have a bad temper. A crescent-eyed and bright woman, intelligent and understanding.
However, these two points appeared on the woman in front of him at the same time.
“It’s your turn.” Her cold voice made people feel that this woman was a ghost, without any emotion at all.
“You won’t kill me.” Qin Mubai, on the other hand, wasn’t in a hurry. He cut his back with both hands and looked straight into her eyes calmly, saying, “If you want to kill, there were many opportunities along the way. You didn’t kill my two brothers just now.”
With a “whoosh” sound, the female swordswoman put away her sword, “bang” and sheathed it. She was extremely decisive and carefree.
“Let me ask you a question. Good answer. Let you go. If you don’t answer well, all three of you must die.” The female swordswoman turned around and said coldly.
Her shoulders were like knives cutting her long hair like waterfalls, but the lines on the back of the swordswoman were extremely gentle and delicate.
“Speak.” Qin Mubai smiled and replied.
“Who killed Zhu Chengwen?”
“I don’t know.”
‘”Die!” Before he could finish his words, the sword light flashed and rushed towards Qin Mubai’s throat.
How could this woman be so unreasonable!
Without the time to think, Qin Mubai hurriedly shook his head and waist, the tip of his sword brushing past his throat.
Violent! He was really going to kill someone!
Qin Mubai couldn’t help but feel a little angry in his heart. He avoided this sword strike and suddenly shouted. He leapt onto the female swordswoman’s shoulder and kicked at the empty door.
This kick swept through a thousand troops! Even thick wooden stakes would be broken!
The female swordswoman did not seem to panic at all. When the sword’s momentum was slightly weaker, the dexterous wrist retracted the sword and dodged Qin Mubai’s attack with a slant. In an instant, he stretched out his hand to follow Qin Mubai’s leg and hit his calf. Qin Mubai’s body suddenly lost its center of gravity in mid-air. He was shocked, and he hurriedly rolled over to the ground.
“Good kung fu!” Qin Mubai slowly stood up and stared at the seemingly weak female swordswoman in front of him.
You really can’t underestimate this woman!
“Let me ask again, how did Zhu Chengwen die?” The female swordswoman’s tone was still calm, without the slightest bit of emotion.
“Are you his relative?” Qin Mubai frowned and asked.
“I’m asking you a question!”
“I don’t need to answer!” Qin Mubai said in a deep voice, “I know that you are Zhu Chengwen’s relative or close friend, even if you don’t tell me.” For the past few days, you’ve been crying at his grave. Actually, you were there just now, but you suddenly heard footsteps coming from us, so you hurriedly evacuated. I accidentally scratched my hand on the tombstone, and a thin thread was torn off my sleeve-see, there are some strange twisted silk patterns on the left cuff. ”
The female swordswoman was stunned for a moment. She raised her left arm doubtfully to take a look. As Qin Mubai had said, there was indeed a trace of a scraping gauze left behind.
“You’re very smart and skilled. You’re definitely not an ordinary person.” The female swordswoman said coldly, “I heard what you just said in front of his grave. Did you mean to tell me? Tell me, who exactly are you!”
“Actually, we shouldn’t be enemies. Instead, we should be friends. Because we have a common enemy.” Qin Mubai did not answer his question. Instead, he said, “This enemy is the murderer of Zhu Chengwen!”
“Quickly tell me, who killed him?!” The female swordswoman was a little excited as she harshly scolded.
“I’m not completely sure yet.” Qin Mubai said, “I came here specifically to investigate Zhu Chengwen’s death, but you actually stopped and hurt my people. I really don’t know if you’re an enemy or a friend.”
The female swordswoman was slightly stunned. She remained silent for a long time and said, “Because you guys are too suspicious, who would come to pay their respects in the middle of the night?” I’ve been here for almost half a month, and no one has come except for an old hunter who occasionally comes to tidy up the graves. But now that you’ve appeared, can I not be suspicious? And now, I still doubt you. Because you didn’t produce any evidence that I trusted you! ”
“You’re very smart.” Qin Mubai nodded with a solemn expression. “You wanted to avenge Zhu Chengwen, but there was no clue. So you went to his grave and waited for the rabbit.” You believe that he died of murder, so the person who can come to pay tribute to him is either his friend or his enemy, or even the murderer himself. So you can get information and clues. Therefore, you are definitely not Zhu Chengwen’s best friend in Jiangzhou, because you are not familiar with this place. “In addition, you are wearing clothes made of Jiangnan Lake silk. I guess you are most likely Zhu Chengwen’s wife in his hometown!”
The female swordswoman was stunned. Her bright eyes lit up and she nodded unwillingly, “That’s right! I am Zhu Chengwen’s unmarried wife! The vengeful woman is the justice of heaven. I don’t care who killed my husband, whether he is a commoner, a high official, a deity, a ghost, or an immortal. I will kill him to avenge my husband!”
‘”But I heard that Zhu Chengwen has been married in his hometown for many years and has given birth to children. You said that you are his unmarried wife. What do you mean?” Qin Mubai frowned doubtfully, “I heard that Zhu Chengwen has been married in his hometown for many years and has already given birth to children.”
“It’s none of your business!”
“We must make it clear!” ‘”Otherwise, I won’t be able to trust you and confirm your identity. This is very important. Otherwise, I have reason to suspect that you are an assassin hired by the murderer. In addition to trying to assassinate us, you also intentionally sneak into our midst and spy on us,” Qin Mubai said tit-for-tat.
“You’re very cunning! This is my personal matter, I shouldn’t have told you. But he’s already dead, so there’s no harm in telling you!” The female swordswoman turned around and slowly walked a few steps with her sword in her hands. She said, “Zhu Chengwen is a good man who attaches great importance to love and righteousness.” Four years ago, his wife died of illness, leaving behind a few-year-old daughter. At that time, he was not an official, but a poor scholar. He was retributive and honorable, even though his family was poor and lived a wonderful life. I know him, I love him, I want to marry him. He didn’t want to say that his wife’s corpse wasn’t cold yet, and that he wasn’t worthy of me for being poor. Let me wait for his gold medal. Later, he went to the capital to pass the Juming Classic, but because his family background was not high, there was no one in the capital to take care of him, so he was only the county magistrate of Jishan County. However, he was very satisfied and thought that being a father and mother official was not a bad thing. So he settled down as an official in Jishan, and I took care of his children at home. We agreed to reunite at Jishan in three years. I didn’t expect that I would receive news of his suicidal death! ”
At this point, the female swordswoman’s beautiful eyes suddenly flashed with murderous intent, “Someone must have murdered him!” He was so poor and upright that even if he was so hungry that he fainted, he wouldn’t even accept food from his relatives and friends. Such a person would never commit a crime of corruption and perverting the law! He had always hated corrupt officials who were the villagers who were the tigers, so how could he become such a person himself? And he wrote me a letter half a year ago that contained ominous words … Unfortunately, I didn’t pay much attention at that time and thought that he was only complaining because he was a little lonely in a foreign country. I didn’t expect … ”
Qin Mubai’s heart lit up. “You have correspondence with him? Did he send you anything? For example, books and books?”
