Rebirth of the Phoenix

Uncontrollable mess

However, when she ran to the person near the person, she guessed who the other person was holding, and she wrinkled her face, lowered her curse, and quickly ran back.

The person who came was probably the person she didn't want to see the least!

She had to clean up the scene without leaving any trace!

This is just an accident, definitely not a life-and-death battle or a trap - she has to work hard to create such a scene!

When she rushed back to the yard, she kept pouring all the "water" in the "water" tank into the room, making the room burn more violently. Then, she took off the steel claws from her hands and hid them.

Then, she didn't know how to clean up, because the whole room was already trapped in the sea of ​​fire, everything would turn into ashes, what else could she clean up?

After thinking about it, she entered the yard's warehouse. There was a basement under the warehouse. The maid and the wardrobe had been drugged by her and moved into it. She hid in the basement and followed.

They stayed together and decided that no matter who came or who asked her questions, she would pretend to be stupid.

While waiting for the time to be discovered by someone, she felt extremely tired, so tired that she didn't want to think about anything.

But since those people arrived early, can she explain what happened tonight?

Since she started choosing a house, she has been planning such a trap that wants to get rid of the Phantom and the Ghost.

Such a room is not only in line with her "talented woman" who likes poetry and painting and quiet temperament, but also is suitable for being ambushed and ambushed, giving the Phantom a good opportunity to attack her.

Before moving in, she asked the owner to help her buy some items, but on the surface and in secret, she also asked someone to help her purchase some things secretly and secretly send them into the house. These items include tough wire,

Grease oil and other substances.

She bet that the first thing Phantom would do was to her, because this room was very suitable for long-distance attacks - Phantom's most powerful is light skills and archery. If an arrow shot and kill her, isn't it a great killing method?

When applying poison, you usually have to meet certain conditions and luck to succeed. For example, you must get close to the target, let the target eat, drink the poisonous things, let the poisonous insects touch the other party's body, etc. How can you compare to killing people with weapons directly with a single weapon?

Is it direct and efficient?

She has a good relationship with the third young master, and the third young master is such a shrewd person. These two people will not approach her at the risk of being discovered by the Xiliang official and royal family. At the same time, these two people will not attack her together—

Using two knives to kill flies is not in line with the style of a master!

It is easier to be exposed during the day and is easier to be discovered. It is best to be taken at night.

What should the Phantom do to kill her neatly without leaving any trace? - She speculated on his actions and designed the trap based on this.

She thought the hardest thing for her was to guard against his arrows.

After repeated thinking and design, she thought of a way: seal the window with a layer of thin, tough iron wire!

Unless it is very close, it is difficult to see whether it is day or night, let alone at night? The candlelight is not very bright at such a distance, and no matter how good the Phantom's eyes look, she doesn't think he can

See this layer of thin iron wire.

When he shoots the arrow, the arrow must first shoot through the iron wire. With his archery and strength, she believes that the arrow will definitely shoot through the iron wire. What she wants is not that the arrow will be wired by the iron wire.

Blocking the way, but an alarm for the attack!

When the sharp arrow shot through the wire, it would make a subtle sound, and the speed would slow down. At this critical moment, she made an arrow fall, and at the same time knocked over the candlestick, extinguished the candlelight, confusing his sight and judgment.

.

At this point, she had to catch it without any fault, because even if the arrow was slowed down by the wire, it was still very powerful and still very fast. If she reacted a little slower, she would probably be shot.

If the poison is simmered on the arrow again, she will really have to die.

After pretending to be hit by an arrow, she immediately ran out while the dark, hid by the door, and observed the movements in the room through the crack of the door.

In the room, she had already designed a small ignition mechanism. After he entered the center of the room, she just needed to press it outside, and the small ignition mechanism would ignite it. The door panel was the first to burn, and she closed the door again. It was not easy for him to escape from the door.

The house is made of wood, and the four walls and floors of the room were poured with tiny oil. A spark would instantly ignite a fire. No matter how high his skills are, it is impossible to escape without any loss!

Originally, she wanted to take his life while he was on fire, but she failed.

But he probably has to recuperate for a while, right? It is certain that he has lost his right arm, but they will not stop chasing her.

After knowing that she is not that "weak", it's time to replace her with Youmang next?

Poisoning... is really hard to prevent, and even she can't think of a safer countermeasure.

Maybe, she should really hide it completely, or go to Ye Jiu, tell him about this matter, and discuss countermeasures with him...

She thought about it all the time, and didn't know how long it took, and her eyelids started to fight.

There were so many problems on the ground to solve, but she fell asleep unknowingly.

When she opened her eyes, she was bright in front of her, so bright that she immediately narrowed her eyes, a little unable to stand the light.

But in the blurry image, she still saw a person, a person who could not hide his charm no matter how dazzling the light or how thick the darkness was!

When she saw this person, she smiled bitterly. She couldn't hide anything she had with this person present.

If she is blacklisted by him, she will find it difficult to gain a foothold on this day in the future.

The man spoke, his voice was still very gentle, but he said with a terrifying force: "Miss Hongzhuang, you have finally woken up."

She smiled, blinked, and sat up: "Is the third young master who saved me?"

The people who came on horseback last night were not officials, but were wearing plain clothes, but were far more powerful and full of force than officials. Her first impression at that time was that these people were probably the guards of the inner guards, right?

Even if they are not the big guards, they must be official elites or regular soldiers. If these people are dispatched, they will inevitably alarm the upper class, such as the third young master, the fourth master, etc., then it will be difficult for her to hide the truth.

Sure enough, when she woke up, she faced the third young master.

Yue Yinghua smiled: "To be precise, it was discovered you, not saving you."

Hongzhuang's vision finally became clear, she looked left and right: "Are those two people okay?"

She refers to the maid and the guard, two people who were sleeping with her in the underground storage room last night.

"They are fine." Yue Yinghua sat on the chair in front of the bed, clapping her palms with a folding fan, "How can Miss Hongzhuang explain to me what happened last night?"

Hongzhuang was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't know much either. Last night, I couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk. I saw some suspicious figures appearing around me, worried about what kind of thief..."

"Miss Hongzhuang, no secret words are spoken." Yue Yinghua interrupted her story and said lightly, "How do you want to tell the truth?"

Hongzhuang smiled reluctantly: "I'm telling the truth..."

Yue Yinghua had no smile on her face and said to the outsider: "Come in--"

What did you carry in? Hongzhuang thinks it’s really not good.

She is lying on a simple soft couch, which is the yard after the fire. Next to it, there is only a pile of ashes left on the two-story wooden house. The white courtyard walls are blackened, and the smell of burnt is still filled with the air.

.

In the yard, in addition to the little turtle, there were more than a dozen plainclothes guards who could tell at a glance that they were well-trained and had a benchmark standing posture.

Now this situation is a bit like a three-court trial. She smiled bitterly while thinking about how to deal with it later.

Soon, the gate of the yard was pushed open, and a group of plainclothes guards came in carrying a few stretchers and placed the stretchers neatly in the yard.

Yue Yinghui said: "Little turtle, uncover the white cloth."

The little turtle didn't say anything, ran over quickly and uncovered the white cloth on the stretcher one by one.

Six stretchers, six dead people, all wearing plain clothes, with a calm expression, no wounds or blood on their bodies, and their skin...but it is purple or black.

Yue Yinghua looked at Hongzhuang with a calm voice. She didn't know what he was thinking now: "I found someone staring at you in secret, so she secretly sent six good men to ambush around the room, trying to find out what those people were

People, however, have not discovered anything yet. They were mysteriously killed last night, and the murderer left no trace."

Red Makeup “…”

She knew that she had been tracked and monitored by others, and she had thought that there might be three young masters among them, but she did not expect that he would do this. She sent so many people and was still lurking around.

Yue Yinghua said: "Coincidentally, there was a fire in your room last night. Is this a coincidence?"

Hongzhuang is still silent: "..."

Yue Yinghua smiled slightly, but there was no smile in her eyes: "I also know that the girl Hongzhuang kept her mouth shut and wanted you to tell the truth. So, let me tell you what I know first."

Next to him was a table, and there was a tray on the table. In the tray was a burnt arrow.

Yue Yinghua picked up the arrow: "This was found in the ashes, the arrow was poisoned and blood-sealed. This iron arrow is carefully crafted, with great accuracy and lethality, but it is extremely difficult to control.

Gao, the person who uses this kind of arrow must be a master. Who is the owner of the arrow? Who is he going to kill? How could he fail?"

His eyes were not inferior to the arrow, and he stared at Hongzhuang, so he couldn't laugh out loud.

Yue Yinghua put the arrow back on the tray and said, "The branches and leaves of the house opposite the house were cut down last night. My people found someone lies on the maple tree.

The traces of the silence. Standing in that position, you can see the movements in the second floor room and shoot arrows. Are the people lying there just a simple voyeurism?"

Hongzhuang: "…"

But he found so many things just now?

What else he didn't find?

Yue Yinghua said again: "In early spring in March, it rained again two days ago. A wooden house would burn to ashes in just two hours without even a single charcoal. I think it is incredible.

My people smelled the scent of tincture and found traces of tincture. Who set the fire? After so much effort, it did not burn anyone to death. So, what is the meaning of burning this fire?

Can the house still hide the secret that cannot be seen in the light of day?”
