Chapter 21 The Mystery of the Murder 2
After some discussions, the Martial Arts League finally decided to let Chu Tingxuan and Chu Lingfeng be the vanguard to investigate the cause of Zhao Mengjun's death first, and at the same time send another group of people to go directly to the base of the Demon Cult to inquire about the news, combining the two sides. The results will determine the general direction in the future.
Chu Tianheng recognized Chu Tingxuan under the eyes of everyone, and his son guarded by him like a door god, so he could only temporarily give up his plan to take his life.
As soon as Feng Feichi returned to his room, he had hot water poured into him, and he took a comfortable bath. The scalding water made him relax, and his pores were refreshed.Originally, the Chu family wanted to drive him away after the discussion was over, but Chu Tingxuan insisted on keeping him. At his request, Feng Feichi's room even changed from a guest room to an inner room. , it is quite close to Chu Tingxuan's house.
Thinking of Chu Tingxuan's appearance of fighting for himself with a protective attitude, Feng Feichi almost scrunched up his face and laughed on the spot.
"Tingxuan, can I come in?" The knock on the door followed the voice of the person in his mind from outside the door.
"En." Feng Feichi withdrew his thoughts, lazily sank into the tub and replied.
Chu Tingxuan pushed the door open in response, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Feng Feichi lying naked in the bathtub looking at him. The sudden scene made his face turn red, and he stammered: " Feichi, you, why are you taking a shower?"
Feng Feichi looked at him inexplicably, spread his hands, and asked, "Which rule of the Wulin League says that I can't take a bath during the day?"
Chu Tingxuan didn't answer, and looked very cramped: "Then, come out after you wash up, and I'll wait for you at the door." After speaking, he took a few steps back and was about to close the door.
"What are you going to do at the door?" Feng Feichi didn't bother to care about the wrong brain of this person, so he stopped and asked, "What happened?"
Chu Tingxuan stood where he was, and replied dryly: "Another charred corpse has been sent, I'll come to you to have a look."
Feng Feichi paused while taking a bath: "Another one?"
"En," Chu Tingxuan's face gradually became calm after talking about the charred corpse. He took a close look at Feng Feichi's facial changes, and said hesitantly, "If you don't want to see it, then..."
"Who says not to watch?" Feng Feichi interrupted domineeringly, only to hear a "wow", he actually just stood up from the bathtub, and then Chu Tingxuan's face turned red like a monkey's ass, He began to put on his clothes openly, "Go, I'll go with you now."
"Feichi..." Chu Tingxuan's voice sounded like a mosquito.
"En?" Feng Feichi was quickly getting dressed, and asked without looking back, "What's wrong?"
Chu Tingxuan stood there awkwardly, and only after a long time did two words pop out of his mouth: "It's okay."
Feng Feichi gave him a strange look, maybe this person was scared out of his mind by the appearance of the scorched corpse?
When the two arrived at the meeting hall, some people had already gathered there. Feng Feichi's hair was not completely dry because of the rush of time, and the water droplets on the hair were falling drop by drop. On such a solemn occasion, it was obviously extremely rude.
Chu Tianheng glanced at him condescendingly, his eyes were like looking at a stray dog picking up waste, such an impolite thing dared to enter the gate of his Shen's house!
Before Feng Feichi started to look at the corpse, he discovered the "spitting" of the martial arts leader towards him. He could only hide behind Chu Tingxuan and cut off the other party's line of sight before seriously observing the corpse on the ground .
Lying on the ground was a corpse similar to Zhao Mengjun's condition. The mutilated limbs and charred appearance could make the viewer tremble from the heart, and the unpleasant smell from the charred corpse was even more compelling. He wanted to bend over and vomit on the spot.
"Hey, it's Mr. Chu?" Everyone was still immersed in the horror of the corpse, and a familiar voice reached Feng Feichi's ears.
He raised his head to look, and saw Qi Shi was looking at Chu Tingxuan with a provocative face, and said to Chu Tianheng: "When I came, I heard that the son of the former leader returned to the Chu family, this must be him. "
Feng Feichi was speechless, why is this little bastard here?
Chu Tingxuan obviously had the same doubts as him, and asked coldly, "Why are you here?"
The corners of Qi Shi's mouth turned up, revealing an evil smile, pointed at the charred corpse and said, "This is my elder brother." There was no trace of sadness in his tone, like a man who triumphantly won money in a casino. people.
Chu Tingxuan closed his eyes and said in a tone full of disgust, "He is your elder brother, why are you not sad?"
This question made Qi Shi, who had been treated in various ways in the Qi family in the past, laugh abnormally. Instead of answering directly, he asked with a smile: "Does Young Master Chu believe in brotherhood?"
Chu Tingxuan nodded without hesitation: "I believe."
Qi Shi sneered, his eyes were filled with murderous intent in an instant, as if the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time were about to erupt suddenly, but when they erupted, he suppressed them abruptly, unfortunately his facial expression was not well controlled , looked at Chu Tianheng slightly distorted and said: "Leader, I have a merciless request."
Chu Tian glanced at him, "Say it."
Qi Shidao: "My elder brother died tragically. I heard that you handed over this case to Young Master Chu. I wonder if you can let me participate in it?"
Feng Feichi let out an irritable "Tsk", this kid is really smart, they finally hid in Chu's house in order to avoid the system, and he used the death of his elder brother as an excuse to directly break the protection.
Probably Chu Tianheng saw Qi Shi's malice, and nodded in agreement very readily: "Okay."
Qi Shi smiled, glanced casually at the burnt corpse, his eyes were full of joy, like a man who had been poor for a long time got a room full of gold, no matter who he was, he would fall into madness.
Chu Tingxuan naturally didn't mind having one more person to help investigate the case, but Qi Shi's murderous intentions towards him in the inn were too great, if he was allowed to join, he might suffer from the enemy.
Chu Tingxuan said coldly, "No."
"What? Could it be that Young Master Chu is worried that I'll be slowing down?" Qi Shi looked at him and asked forcefully.
Chu Tingxuan nodded: "Yes."
"You!" Qi Shi's face turned green with anger.
Chu Tingxuan stopped talking, and squatted down next to the Jiao corpse to inspect the corpse. Unconvinced, Qi Shi bent down and tried to grab his shoulder, but a sword was already fast across his neck.
Chu Lingfeng appeared at some point, with a strong killing intent all over his body: "Don't move."
"You, this is the fortress of the leader of the martial arts, how dare you touch me?" Qi Shi stared at him with wide eyes.
Chu Lingfeng glanced at the sword in Qi Shi's hand. The owner of a good weapon always attracts some appreciation from others. His expression softened, and he raised his chin and said, "Draw the sword."
Qi Shi looked back angrily: "What did you say?"
Chu Lingfeng looked at him indifferently: "It's very easy if you want to follow us, prove your sword skills and defeat me." He said the last three words with great confidence, as if the outcome of this match had already been predicted by him.
"You!" Qi Shi clenched his sword tightly. If there was no one around, he could ask the system to use "magic" to deal with this person, but in public competition...he couldn't win at all.
Just as Qi Shi was extremely resentful, suddenly, the voice of the system appeared in his mind.
Seeing that the person in front of him was not moving, Chu Lingfeng took the sword back with a sneer, and Qi Shi really put on an appearance of admitting defeat. He looked at Chu Tianheng and changed into a pleading tone: "Since Young Master Chu dislikes me It's too much trouble, I won't cause trouble, but it's about my elder brother, and I hope that when Alliance Leader Chu allows Young Master Chu to go to Qi's house to investigate, I will be the guide."
Chu Tian glanced at him, and said righteously: "If they are going to the Qi family to seek proof, that is the territory of the Qi family, so naturally young master Qi needs to follow him at all times."
Qi Shi laughed, very presumptuously: "Then the Qi family will be waiting for Mr. Chu's arrival."
Feng Feichi narrowed his eyes, he was afraid there was a fraud in it.
Chu Tingxuan glanced at him, and said coldly: "Since Mr. Qi said so, why don't we go now." Instead of waiting for the other party to know that they are coming to decorate at home, it is better to catch the chaos and catch them by surprise.
Feng Feichi smiled, hid behind and patted Chu Tingxuan on the shoulder at an angle that no one would see to show his praise, since it was an inevitable trap, it was better to step into it earlier.
Qi Shi was very surprised by Chu Tingxuan's proposal, but it was only for a moment, his smile became bigger and bigger, and his smile became more frenzied.
"Okay, please."
Although the status of the Qi family in the martial arts arena is high all the year round, the various sects are important, but Master Qi’s family is rich and generous, so there are many sincere friends in the world. It is a pity that all the guests are blocked at the door.
Feng Feichi followed behind Qi Shi with a lot of worries. He secretly glanced at the innocent-looking young masters of Chu standing beside him. Chu Lingfeng didn't know that Qi Shi had wanted to kill them, so he must have lacked vigilance. Although Chu Tingxuan knew Qi Shi's intentions, he didn't know the existence of the system, so he couldn't understand the danger in it.
A gleam of coldness flashed in Feng Feichi's eyes, only he really knew that this trip must be extremely dangerous.
"Master, you are back." The door of Qi's house was slowly opened, and an old man with white hair and a sad face stood at the door to welcome them. The old man's lips were chapped and white, and he opened his eyes weakly and looked at Qi Shi. , if it weren't for those eyes still blinking, this person would not look like a living person.
"Housekeeper, thank you for your hard work." Qi Shi's voice was full of joy, which made Chu Tingxuan frown in disgust.
Behind the old housekeeper, the entire Qi family compound was silent, and the cold wind was blowing from nowhere even though it was broad daylight, making everyone present tremble.
Feng Feichi raised his eyebrows, not knowing what the system did, the Qi family is... haunted?
