C11 (2/2)
He wasn't worried that his enemies would come, but he was worried about why they had enemies.
To him, having enemies meant that he was not doing well, and he just so happened to be a person who pursued perfection with all his might.
As River City was deep in thought, Liu'er and the Daoist Priest followed behind. Neither of them asked anything. Liu'er was worried that he would cause more trouble in River City, while Daoist Zhen was afraid that he would cause trouble if he were to ask.
Xiao Lan wanted to share the worries of River City and asked, ”Why did those people die in such a strange manner? ”What method did the killer use?”
Jiang Cheng sighed and said, ”It was the killer who pressed the laughing point and cut their throats off quickly! Therefore, their smiles have not disappeared, but their eyes are filled with terror! ”
Liu'er could not help but think back to the scene in the courtyard and could not help but shiver. ”Could it be that this murderer is a madman? Why are you tormenting me like this? ”
No one could answer his question. No one was that madman.
Their footsteps were no longer light. They left deep footprints in the snow, as if everyone was dragging a large rock. Xiao Lan put her hand on her round face, and with a trace of worry on her face, she said, ”The two uncles Bai Wen and Bai Wu said that all twelve deaths are the same. Could it be that the culprit's skills are truly unfathomable?”
Although Liu'er didn't kill anyone, she had heard quite a few stories about people after her months of travelling. She said, ”With Big Bro Jiang's martial arts skills, killing twelve people is as easy as flipping his palm. If he said he couldn't kill him, then it must be because the murderer's methods were too brutal. Big Bro Jiang couldn't bear to do so. ”I can't be sure that the killer's skills are better than Big Bro Jiang's.”
Xiao Lan was slightly happy to see him so focused on Big Bro Jiang, but she still shook her head and said, ”Even if you don't know, you can't blame your stupidity. It would not be difficult to kill twelve people. However, everyone had died in a different way, and they were all killed after being hit by an acupoint. This was not that simple. ”Think about it, if one of them was killed, the rest would have to flee in panic. The scene was extremely chaotic, that person could hit his acupoints in such a situation, his martial arts must be extremely high!”
Jiang Cheng sighed, ”I've tried eleven times, but none of them was possible!”
However, that murderer only used one time!
Liu'er finally understood River City's worries and could not help but start to worry. She consoled him, ”Maybe, he just has a grudge with the Qiao family.”
Xiao Lan said, ”Since we can't figure it out, then let's think of another way to try. The wall poem didn't seem to be written by the murderer. Let's assume that the murderer and the inscriptionist were not the same person, and that the murderer only had grudges with the Qiao family, and was not an enemy of our Immortal Crocodile Manor. Then our only enemy is the inscriptionist, but who is he? ”Why are we going to the Qiao family?”
Liu'er knew from the bottom of her heart that the assassin with such high martial arts skills had already caused River City to become troubled, so she consoled him, ”Maybe it's because he wants to catch the medicine. Wasn't the Qiao Family Manor a medicine store? That person went to the medicine store to get the medicine, I don't know if I'll be able to see it. ”
Xiao Lan shook her head and said, ”If you were sick and went to get the medicine, would the people who saw the entire courtyard full of corpses think of writing poems to frame others?” Liu'er thought about it and shook her head.
Xiao Lan continued, ”In other words, he had already thought about killing and framing us. He just went there too late and someone was killed! So he only left behind the blood poem! ”
Liu'er heard this and was surprised, ”Then why did he choose the Qiao Family? Could it be that the Qiao Family is related to the Immortal Crocodile Manor? Was he trying to set an example? ”
Although River City walked very slowly, it was exceptionally calm. He almost put the stone that was pressing down on his heart above his feet. Every step he took, he would deeply step into the snow. Hearing Liu'er's question, he paused and thought for a while before saying to himself, ”Why did he choose the Qiao Family? ”Why?”
”Perhaps the Qiao Family has some prestige in Yi Zhou City. Since he wants to frame the Immortal Crocodile clan and cause public outrage, it would be reasonable for him to pick someone with a higher prestige.”
Jiang Cheng said, ”Perhaps this poem is a signal from the author of the poem! He probably wanted someone to see it, and this person was definitely related to the Qiao family! This person will only appear if you kill a Qiao Family member! ”
The Daoist man did not answer and instead said, ”If you want to know who is related to the Qiao family, you better ask someone else. However, there are many strange things about this and even if you ask, no one will be willing to tell you. But now that so many people had died, there would definitely be a lot of private discussions. If not, let them pry. ”
No one would be wary of two children, and it would be most appropriate for them to inquire about them.
Jiang Cheng heard the Daoist Master's words and his brows furrowed. He nodded his head in gratitude and said to Xiao Lan, ”It's already late, we can't go tomorrow.”
