Chapter 60 Anatomy

In front of your eyes is a mass of indissoluble blackness, you can't see anything, only the sound of pattering rain in your ears and the cold raindrops hitting your skin tell you that this is the world.

Perhaps the rain is too cold, so cold to the bone that even a little bit of warmth will be captured by the keen sense of touch.When Han Yunluo stretched out his hand, he touched a piece of warmth. It was a sticky liquid, full of warm breath.

That bit of warmth made his whole body warm up, and his whole body seemed to gradually regain consciousness, and a dim light gradually lit up in front of his eyes.A faint ray of light passed through the night, flickering and illuminating the warm liquid.

Blood, a large pool of glaring scarlet blood rushed into Han Yunluo's eyes without warning, and the warmth in his heart disappeared instantly, replaced by the chill that pierced into the bone marrow.

"stop……"

Han Yunluo raised his head upon hearing the sound, and saw the face of the person in front of him clearly.It was a handsome and unfamiliar face, distorted by the great pain, Han Yunluo looked down and saw a knife stuck in the man's chest, and the person holding the handle of the knife was himself.

Han Yunluo was shocked, and pulled out the knife reflexively without thinking. In an instant, scarlet blood gushed out from the wound, and the front was dyed blood red in an instant.The stranger clutched his chest, frowning in pain.The rain flowed down his handsome face, and suddenly, Han Yunluo felt that the man's frown looked familiar.

In the rain, the man staggered towards Han Yunluo, and slowly stretched out his hand, but Han Yunluo was shrouded in great fear and retreated involuntarily, until the man lost his strength and fell in front of him, he didn't have the courage to hold that pale hand.

The pain, the inescapable pain of suffocation swept over, Han Yunluo felt as if his heart was being grabbed by that hand, almost crushed...

"what--"

Han Yunluo sat up suddenly, his chest heaved violently, and his back was already wet with cold sweat.

He took a deep breath and looked around.This is Xiyuan, who was rescued by Baili Mingyan and lived in his house.The sky is not yet bright, and the faint light still reveals the coldness of the night.

Han Yunluo stretched out his hand to cover his chest, and the pain from the dream just now was still clearly in his mind. It felt so real, as if it had really happened.

There is also the man in the dream, who felt strange in the dream, and now recalling that this face has appeared countless times in his dreams.

Who is it?

After thinking for a moment, Han Yunluo felt pain in his brain, and even taking a breath felt like thousands of needles were stuck in his brain.Han Yunluo shook his head hurriedly, shaking out those messy and cruel dreams, got out of bed with his clothes on, and walked out the door with a cane.

The wind in the early summer morning is very refreshing. Although a disabled person has limited mobility, Han Yunluo still drags his legs that cannot support the ground and decides to take a walk. Proper exercise will help the body recover. After all, Han Yunluo does not want to be in the Too long to bother here.

Han Yunluo didn't know the way, so he just walked along the corridor. After turning a corner, his eyes suddenly opened up. It was an open space with a towering sycamore tree growing in the middle. There was a person practicing a knife, the sharp blade cut through the air, and the cold light shone from the blade from time to time, humming lowly.

The person practicing the sword is Baili Mingyan. In my impression, the man dressed in black and holding a long sword has an eternal cold face, and his every gesture exudes a murderous aura that ordinary people dare not approach.Presumably, the young man left home to create his own school. If he didn't have some hard power and determination, how could he stand firm in this undercurrent and turbulent rivers and lakes.

But for such a cold and hard person, only when a person's name is mentioned, there will be an inadvertent gentleness between his brows and eyes.

Qian Yuhan.What kind of power does this person have to make a person like Baili Mingyan treat him with tenderness?

Han Yunluo unconsciously touched his face, bowed his head and smiled wryly, thinking, Baili Mingyan is really different from other people, this face alone is not enough.It has to be the real Qian Yuhan.

While thinking about it, Baili Mingyan had already stopped his movements, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Han Yunluo on the side of the corridor. He raised his hand to wipe his sweat and walked towards him.

"If your legs are inconvenient, don't come out and walk around." Baili Mingyan said with concern.His voice was soft, almost gentle.

Han Yunluo smiled slightly and said politely: "It's okay, the activity may get better faster, and it's not very serious."

It seems that Han Yunluo's words were too polite, which made Baili Mingyan wake up like a dream, and then showed a blunt smile and said: "Oh...well, you should pay attention to safety..."

Han Yunluo clearly saw that the dense mist in Baili Mingyan's eyes suddenly receded and returned to his normal expression, and suddenly there was a vague sense of loss in his heart.He looked up and smiled back, then turned and left.The empty feeling in his chest made him feel inferior for the first time to be recognized as Qian Yuhan.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's really similar... No, it's exactly the same."

I don't know when there was another person beside him, Baili Mingyan suddenly turned around and saw Gu Shangqing's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Baili Mingyan said in shock: "When did you come back?!"

Gu Shangqing looked calm: "Just when you are in spring."

"..."

Baili Mingyan didn't want to pay attention to him, rolled his eyes unconsciously, turned around and walked under the tree, picked up the scabbard and gently put Xianyue into the sheath, and asked, "What did you find?"

In the middle of the night, Gu Shangqing met them by chance in Qingyue Tower, and left in a hurry without saying a word or two. Baili Mingyan guessed that he must have gone to the government to investigate the corpse.

Gu Shangqing picked a willow branch from nowhere and put it in his mouth, he said hesitantly: "After investigation, there are a total of 45 corpses, and 36 of them were killed by one blow, with only one wound; the other nine had obvious signs of fighting. But there was only one fatal wound, which was the same as the other 36."

I don't know if it's Baili Mingyan's illusion, Gu Shangqing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he spoke, he hadn't come back to it yet, and Gu Shangqing went on to say: "In addition, these nine corpses are not from Qingyue Tower. The male servant, but the guest who stayed overnight."

Baili Mingyan was taken aback, and asked back, "How do you know?"

Gu Shangqing smiled lightly and said: "Because I know them all. They are the deputy head of Lingfeng Hall, the head of Hongyue Gang, and the head of Flying Dragon Escort..."

Baili Mingyan waved his hand and said: "Stop, stop, don't list them one by one. In other words, these people are not ordinary people, and they are all high-ranking people in the Jianghu."

"They can't rank in the ranks with this ability, at most they are struggling at the bottom of the martial arts master list." Gu Shangqing held a willow branch in his mouth and looked at it with disdain.

Baili Mingyan thought to himself, since you are not ranked high, why do you bother to deal with them...

As if hearing Baili Mingyan's inner voice, Gu Shangqing scratched the back of his head and said, "I haven't had much contact with them, it's just a drinking buddy who had a good time..."

Baili Mingyan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and urged: "Go ahead."

Gu Shangqing said with a relaxed face: "As long as you see the corpse, everything will be revealed. Their fatal injuries are obvious, and they all come from the same weapon..."

Baili Mingyan said, "Flying needle."

"How do you know?" Gu Shangqing wondered.

Baili Mingyan took out the fish that escaped the net that Shangguanzhe found and handed it to Gu Shangqing. Gu Shangqing frowned as if in doubt, and then shook his head again.

Baili Mingyan: "What?".

Gu Shangqing: "In the final analysis, it was not the flying needle that killed everyone in Qingyue Tower, but the poison on the flying needle." After a pause, Gu Shangqing continued: "This flying needle roughly matches the wound on the corpse, so it should be The same weapon. When I sneaked into the evidence room of the government, but did not find a similar murder weapon, so I suspect that the murderer recovered all the murder weapons after the murder. Since the murderer intends to recover the murder weapon, how can he be so careless as to leave this one behind? ?”

Baili Mingyan paused suddenly, and suddenly said: "There are still a group of people."

Gu Shangqing nodded: "It seems so."

The group of people who made the flying needles were the murderers, and after killing everyone in Qingyuelou, they recovered the key murder weapon.But after they left, another group of people appeared. This group of people knew the real identity of the murderer and deliberately left evidence at the scene to induce them to investigate...

"Do you have any thoughts about the murderer?" Leaving aside the origins of the second group of people, Baili Mingyan had a candidate in mind for the first group.

Gu Shangqing: "It is true that there are many people who use flying needles in the world, but I am afraid that the number of people who can reach this level can be counted on one hand, plus the motive of committing the crime..."

"It should be the Qinglian Gang."

"It should be the Qinglian Gang."

The two spoke in unison.

Shen Qinglian, the leader of the Qinglian gang, is male and female, with mediocre martial arts.However, his weapon Xuehong Needle has been promoted year after year, and the latest ranking of the weapon list unexpectedly ranked No.8.Let the Qinglian Gang become one of the few big gangs in the martial arts world.

Both Baili Mingyan and Gu Shangqing knew that the weapon used to kill Qingyuelou was definitely not the Xuehong Needle, because the Xuehong Needle was too eye-catching, but the flying needle could kill nearly 50 people. I'm afraid no one can match Shen Qinglian.

In addition, Shen Qinglian's younger brother, Shen Qingyun, is the head of the Seven Ultimate Martial Soul. It was a coincidence that Baili Mingyan met Shen Qingyun at Qingyue Tower the night he first met Han Yunluo.

Baili Mingyan had to be suspicious of such a coincidence.

It remains to be ascertained whether Qinglian's help was ordered by Bailichen from Qijue Villa.

The two who came to the conclusion looked at each other, and then Gu Shangqing smiled slyly and said: "I have found all the information that needs to be checked, then I will not disturb the host to talk about love, so I will leave..."

Baili Mingyan interrupted: "Help me check the matter again."

Gu Shangqing raised his eyebrows and said: "What?" In fact, he already knew it well.

Before speaking again, Baili Mingyan thought of something strange again: "You saw Han Yunluo just now, what do you mean by saying that he 'really resembles'?"

"Han Yunluo?" Gu Shangqing rolled his eyes and said, "Is that the beauty on crutches just now? Well... I mean, he looks like Qian Yuhan, exactly the same."

"Do you know Qian Yuhan?"

Gu Shangqing nodded.

This time, Baili Mingyan was in a hurry: "Why didn't you say that before?"

Gu Shangqing looked innocent: "You never asked..."

"..."

"How do you think he got the name 'Thousand-faced Fox'? Not only because he is the owner of the Qianji Pavilion, but also because he is easy-going. Qian Yuhan can easily pretend to be another person, even relatives Hard to notice. Except for me, of course..."

Baili Mingyan's eyes widened suddenly: "You taught him the disguise technique! You are willing to teach others the unique skill!"

Back then, Gu Shangqing betrayed his most proud craftsmanship because of a pot of emperor drunk, and he would not even say this reason to death.

Gu Shangqing smugly smiled and said lightly: "I am the real disguise No. 1 in the world." Gu Shangqing continued: "But he is very smart, and he mastered the essence of the disguise technique after only half a month of learning. Few outsiders can see through his disguise."

Baili Mingyan was stunned, and after a while he said in a daze, "Then is his face real or a disguise?"

"Do you think he is me? Besides, the disguise technique can't make such high-quality and exquisite skin."

Baili Mingyan smiled lowly, as if he remembered something.After thinking about it for a long time, he turned his head to look at Gu Shangqing and asked, "Then are you real or disguised now?"

In the past seven years, the few times I met Gu Shangqing had different faces, including this time.

Hearing this, Gu Shangqing said slyly: "Guess."
