Until the three of them boarded the carriage again, He Xuqing still looked a little overwhelmed.

"The acting skills just now were not bad, even I was a little surprised." Li Qingyan relaxed, leaned lazily on the backrest, and looked at He Xuqing with a smile on his face.

He Xuqing didn't answer, but she was very clear in her heart what her actions meant just now.

Could it be that she pushed her master away with her own hands?

Liu Shen silently handed over a piece of handkerchief, and after He Xuqing took it, she realized that her face was covered in cold sweat belatedly.

She silently wiped the sweat off her face, what happened just now seemed like a dream to her now.When being stared at by everyone, when hearing something about the Bei family, when meeting Xian Yu Zijun's eyes...

After thinking about all this, she only felt that the doubts in her heart were not relieved in the slightest, but even more serious.

Fortunately, Li Qingyan didn't ask her any more questions at this time, and Liu Shen was never talkative, so she let herself immerse herself in her own world until Li Qingyan told her to get off the car.

He Xuqing silently followed behind Li Qingyan. Li Qingyan took her all the way to the medicine room, and then said: "It's very late, you should have a good rest. Don't think about other things for now. I will tell you when I have time." of."

He Xuqing still looked a little distracted, but when Li Qingyan turned around, he suddenly stopped him.

"What is Blood Cheng Pavilion?"

Li Qingyan paused and turned around, He Xuqing looked at him seriously and stubbornly.

"Go in and talk." Li Qingyan sighed and walked straight to the medicine room.

When the two sat down facing each other, He Xuqing urged to ask again. The night outside the window was getting darker, but neither of them felt sleepy.

Li Qingyan tapped his knees lightly with his fingers, and his low voice filled the night: "Blood Cheng Pavilion has always been feared by the big families, but no one knows where it is. The time when it really appeared in the eyes of the big families is about It was six years ago. The number of times it appeared was only a dozen times."

"It is precisely because of the small number of appearances that they are doubly mysterious. Moreover, there is no regularity in the time of their activities and the things they do, and their behavior is very strange. The people of Blood Chengge first appeared on the seashore. At that time, they had no reason The land robbed a group of boats belonging to the Chen family, all the people on board were killed, the cargo was intercepted, and even the boats were burned. It is said that the scene was very tragic, and they got a vicious reputation because of this. The few times he acted, most of them were in this style.

They dare to intervene in the affairs of their big families, and they seldom leave anyone alive. There are many big families who have made trouble with them, and there are also many people who fear them.However, they came and went without a trace. For so many years, the only information that everyone spied on was that their master was surnamed Cheng, and the name 'Blood Cheng Pavilion' also came from this. "

"What is the purpose of their appearance these few times?" He Xuqing frowned and asked.

"I can't figure it out, there are no rules. Sometimes they rob something, and sometimes it seems that they are just for killing people. The only evidence that can determine that the person who made the shot is them is the withered silver ring."

"Is it their token?" He Xuqing asked.

"It should be a symbol of status." Li Qingyan stroked his chin and recalled, "The rings are all the same in style and material, but the patterns carved on them are different. The world infers that it is a symbol of their status, but What it is like, no one knows."

He Xuqing thought of the small, dull but silver-gray ring, and asked hesitantly, "What is that ring made of?"

Li Qingyan raised his eyebrows, looked at He Xuqing's expression, and was surprised at her unusual sensitivity.

"Bones." Li Qingyan spit out two words crisply.

"What?" He Xuqing couldn't help raising her voice and asked again.

"Human bone," Li Qingyan repeated: "It should have been processed, it is stronger than ordinary bones, but it is indeed a human bone."

He Xuqing only felt a gust of cool wind blowing behind her head, and goose bumps all over her body.

"If they really took action against the Bei family, things would become much more troublesome, and the difficulty of the investigation would not be a little bit higher. It's not like they haven't done this kind of direct extermination, but a big family like the Bei family has never No." Li Qingyan said.

He Xuqing was silent for a while, then said, "Do you think it could be them?"

Li Qingyan sneered, and asked back, "What do you think?"

The expression on He Xuqing's face was a bit gloomy, and after a moment of contemplation, he said: "The unknown person who appeared at Bei's house that day, although his actions were considered secret, they were definitely not just a group of people along the way."

"It's more than that. Even people like me have appeared in Bei's house. How many people sitting in the hall of Chen's house today have never been there? Who can guarantee that their purpose of going is to save Bei's house? Li Qingyan sneered, "Or, among those who went, how many of them were there to save the Bei family?"

"What the hell did the Bei family do..." He Xuqing murmured.

"They didn't do anything outrageous, their only fault was that they were too strong." Li Qingyan's voice became lower and lower: "The Bei family's swordsmanship has been unmatched ten years ago, and even the heir to the ghost doctor who is coveted by the world is married. If it was given to Bei Xiangyan, who knows what kind of secret technique the Bei family has mastered? Bei Xiangyan has always been proud, and there are not a few people who inadvertently offend. Although it is not a deep hatred, but coupled with the fear of the Bei family, it is not What a trivial matter."

"As long as the Bei family has some secret techniques that are not passed on, how can they fall to where they are today?" He Xuqing's voice became deeper and deeper.

"Outsiders don't care about these things. They think they exist, so they do. The Bei family has become a target in the eyes of everyone. Even if there is really nothing to discover, some people will be happy to get rid of a strong man. This is the way of the world." Li Qingyan said. .

Bei Xiangyan and Yan Zhu both passed away. Taking advantage of the fact that the young master of the Bei family had not yet fully adapted to the position of the ruler, he waited for the opportunity and felt at ease after eradicating him.Isn't this what everyone thinks?

"No matter who is the host, these people who are filled with righteous indignation on the surface are all accomplices. Xuecheng Pavilion may have participated, but it is definitely not the host. The host is at the banquet tonight." Li Qingyan said, He Xu Qing's eyes immediately fixed on him.

"Are you an accomplice too?" He Xuqing looked straight at him, as if trying to see through his heart.

Li Qingyan fell silent, and then spoke after a while: "You can say that. When I heard the news, I did take people with me. I saw with my own eyes that the destruction of the Bei family had no possibility of turning around, so I took people with me. Looking for northern and southern butterflies."

"Have you ever killed someone from the Bei family?" He Xuqing's every word was like a knife, stabbing Li Qingyan mercilessly.

"One was injured, like a maid." Li Qingyan lowered his gaze, and added after a while: "Should be dead—such a chaotic scene."

He Xuqing looked at the man's drooping head, which coincided with the scene in her mind of him wearing a mask and bending his bow and drawing an arrow at her. She resisted the idea of ​​telling him that she was the maid.

He said that he only hurt one maid, but his expression that day was indeed indifferent, heartless, and regarded human life as nothing.She could never erase the initial impression Li Qingyan left on her.

Li Qingyan probably hasn't recognized her so far, that's why he said such words in such a flat tone.But does this also prove that he really does not intend to lie in front of himself?
