Chapter 42 Testing Each Other
Liu Xu wanted to talk, but after hearing Xu Bai's words, she didn't understand what he meant.
I want to do one more thing, what to do?
She thought that Lin Fenghua was dead, and he also avenged Xiaoyue, but the words suddenly said by the mysterious man in front of her made her wonder.
"This is not the place to talk." Xu Bai said.
They killed someone and talked freely at the crime scene. Only the two of them could do it.
Next, the two began to arrange in the room, and after arranging everything rationally, they were ready to leave.
"The marks on his hands..." Liu Xu stared at the wrist of the corpse, thinking about how to deal with it.
"The red rope is there, there were marks before, and I tied it along that mark." Xu Bai walked to the window and said, pushing the window open.
The two no longer hesitated and left through the window.
The night outside the window was very dark, as if ink was splashed.
The street was quiet and deserted, only the footsteps of Xu Bai and Liu Xu sounded, adding a layer of excitement to the deserted street.
After leaving the Lin Mansion, the two walked all the way.
No one spoke during the period, and both sides maintained the proper silence. Xu Bai stopped only when they were far away from the Lin Mansion.
"You just said that there was one more thing." Liu Xu thought about it and spoke first.
Although both of them were masked at this time to conceal their identities, Liu Xu still decided to break the silence.
"Clang~"
Xu Bai did not speak. With a sound, the long knife came out of the waist and chopped directly at Liu Xu's neck.
Liu Xu heard the sound of breaking wind, and her white fingers turned. The brush appeared in her right hand, and a book appeared in her left hand.
The pages of the book swayed and surrounded Liu Xu.
"Clang!"
There was another sound, and Xu Bai's long knife did not touch Liu Xu. He put the knife back into the sheath with his backhand, looking calm.
"You test me." Liu Xu stared at Xu Bai, frowning slightly.
At that moment, she felt a sense of danger and urgency, and was forced to use her best skills. At this moment, the scorched yellow pages of the book surrounded her, adding a bit of weirdness.
The long knife did not fall, but she exposed herself.
"I have to know your identity." Xu Bai put his hand on the handle of the long knife and said.
Brush, book pages, he already knew where this woman came from.
- Scholar.
Only scholars can use these things, plus this is a charming woman, Xu Bai doesn't have to think too much, he just thinks of the woman in white.
The two fit each other, the possibility is very high.
"Then I don't know where you came from." Liu Xu clenched the brush, eager to try.
Since you use this method to test me, I want to try it too.
Otherwise I won't be satisfied!
"Although this place is secluded, if we really fight and attract others, neither of us can hide our identities." Xu Bai said slowly.
He did have the intention of killing someone to silence him with that knife just now.
But after repeated thinking, he gave up this idea.
Before knowing the other party's strength, the consequences of rashly taking action now will be serious.
If it was in the wilderness, he could try, but in Sheng County, the noise of the two fighting would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.
Besides, this man also killed Lin Fenghua and was on board.
He, Xu Bai, likes to drag people on board the ship.
"Is this what you said? It's very unfair." Liu Xu said with anger.
Very angry!
He tested her out in one go, but she knew nothing about this man.
"This is none of my business. It was you who was so anxious and took out the weapon in your hand." Xu Bai said indifferently.
This matter really can't be blamed on him. Who knew that the other party would take out the real weapon after testing.
Of course, all this is exactly what he wants.
Now he is still in the dark, and this woman has fallen into the light.
"The blacksmith couple of Ming, as well as the clerks of Jishengjiao and Jiantiansi, you killed them." Liu Xu suddenly changed the subject.
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows but did not answer.
"In addition to the scars of hidden weapons, there are also exquisite swordsmanship. Although I didn't see your hidden weapons, the long sword on your waist and the swordsmanship just now have proved your origin." Liu Xu said happily.
Heaven has its own way, and no one can escape.
You just tested me, and I also saw the clues from your swordsmanship.
Now it's a tie, this wave is not a loss.
Although the other party was masked, she didn't figure out the other party's true identity, but at least she figured out who the warrior behind the scenes was.
"Do you know that what you said just now is very dangerous?" Xu Bai narrowed his eyes.
"You don't want to fight here, do you?" Liu Xu pointed to the street.
——Do what you say to others.
Xu Bai: "..."
"Actually, I don't mean anything else. Seeing you fight for Xiaoyue today, I think you are a man, but there is one thing I don't quite understand." Liu Xu didn't continue to stimulate Xu Bai, and the topic turned to another direction.
"What?" Xu Bai said.
"Why did you kill the clerk of the Jiantian Division? Do you know that this is a big deal?" Liu Xu opened her beautiful eyes like stars, full of doubts.
It was purely a coincidence that she met this person today.
But it was this coincidence that made her more confused.
This person must have good intentions to be able to take action for an ordinary girl.
As she said before, she fully supports killing the blacksmith couple and the Jisheng Sect.
But why did he take action against the clerk of the Jiantian Division? She couldn't figure it out.
If the clerk had met him and taken action at that time, it is estimated that the clerk would have helped him in turn, but why did he do the opposite and kill the clerk?
Taking advantage of this time, Liu Xu just asked.
"Do you know anyone from the Jiantian Division?" Xu Bai did not answer, but asked back.
"No." Liu Xu shook her head.
"If you meet someone from the Jiantian Division in the future, tell them that the clerk embezzled money and associated with the Jisheng Sect, and he deserved to die." Xu Bai said.
At this time, both sides were trying to find out the details of each other.
And Xu Bai just took this opportunity to tell the story of Tie Suanxian.
Just like Liu Xu said, killing the people of Jiantiansi will eventually cause trouble.
Then tell the truth of the matter and convey it to Jiantiansi through Liu Xu's mouth.
As for how to deal with it later, he has no control.
If Jiantiansi is upright and can find out the details of Tie Suanxian, he will naturally be fine.
If not, make other plans.
Since he killed Tie Suanxian at that time, he has thought of the consequences.
"Embezzling and associating with Jishengjiao?" Liu Xu was slightly surprised.
She didn't expect this.
"If I meet someone from Jiantiansi, I will explain it to them." Liu Xu said.
She seemed to think that this sentence was not made clear, and added another sentence.
"If it is a chivalrous act, it should not be wronged."
"Chivalrous... Let's go." Xu Bai touched his chin and turned to walk towards the night.
Liu Xu didn't follow him, she was also preparing to go home.
At this time, Xu Bai had already walked to the corner of the street and suddenly poked his head out from the corner of the wall.
"Oh, there's one more thing."
