Chapter 280 Such a body technique, mysterious and mysterious
Chu Tang turned into another inn called "Shunfeng" across the street from Tongfu Inn smoothly and naturally.
Then, like the people in the inn who crowded at the door to eat melon, they gathered around to watch what was going on at the Tongfu Inn opposite, interjecting a few words from time to time to find out what was going on.
"What a surprise! A moment ago, the opposite side was still open for business, but hundreds of officers and soldiers suddenly surrounded the inn opposite, saying they were arresting fugitives."
"The county government's police officers have also been dispatched. Look, that's our Chang County police chief, Xing Fang. Which one? The one who looks fierce!"
"It's not just the Yamen. Look, the soldiers and generals from the city's garrison are also here. Which prisoner is it that actually works for these soldiers?"
"Shopkeeper, you weren't the one who reported the colleague from across the street, right?"
"Oh, sir, please don't say this casually! A certain family has always been honest and kind, how could they do such a thing as giving birth to a son without an asshole? Besides, a certain family has always operated legally and done business openly, and they will not mess with others. Dirty water and so on. Who knows what Tongfu Inn is doing!"
Chu Tang glanced at the shopkeeper a few more times and felt that there was something in what he said next, as if he had something to hide.
He couldn't help but move closer to the shopkeeper and whispered to the shrewd-looking middle-aged man: "Shopkeeper, is there something fishy about this Tongfu Inn?"
"Why are you asking this?" The shopkeeper became wary and glanced at Chu Tang.
Chu Tang sighed and said: "This is my first time coming to Changjun County. When I entered the city, I heard people say how good the Tongfu Inn is. Now I came here just to stay in their hotel. Who would have thought that they would recruit officers and soldiers? , obviously it doesn’t live up to its name. I think it’s not as good as your Shunfeng Inn!”
The shopkeeper beamed when he heard this and nodded: "That's right! Our Shunfeng Inn has always been law-abiding and will never do anything beyond our bounds. All the people who stay here are docile and good-natured people. It's not like the house opposite, which dares to take in anyone!" "
"What should I say? Do they really have a problem?" Chu Tang asked along.
The shopkeeper looked around and said in a low voice: "They sometimes live in some people, and a certain family always feels like they are not serious people, they are mysterious, and sometimes they sneak in and out in the middle of the night. What do you think of such an inn? , is it serious and can people live in it?”
Chu Tang nodded repeatedly and said with great approval: "It's really not possible! Fortunately, I didn't check in yet!"
The shopkeeper looked arrogant and was in the middle of a conversation, but lowered his voice: "A certain family secretly told you that in the early hours of this morning, there was a group of people acting very strangely across the street. Everyone secretly saw it! "
"Oh? What's the weird method?" Chu Tang asked cooperatively.
The shopkeeper said: "They were both men and women, and they were carrying weapons. After a while, some people were carried out. Those people were motionless, they were probably out of breath... At noon, there were several sounds coming from their backyard. The screams! Do you think it’s scary or not?”
"Are the officers and soldiers here to arrest them?"
"Then I don't know!" The shopkeeper shook his head repeatedly, "But even if we came to catch them, they arrived too late! When the time came, those people left the inn opposite."
Chu Tang nodded repeatedly, praising the shopkeeper for his sharp ears and eyes, and for being well-informed. He praised the shopkeeper so much that he grinned to the back of his head.
Seeing that the shopkeeper shared the news with others, causing exclamations of surprise, Chu Tang sighed casually: They say the person who knows you best is not a friend, but an opponent!
Looking at the shopkeeper's look, you can tell how correct this is.
The ancients are sincere and I can't bully you!
Chu Tang slowly moved to the corner of the inn, silently looking at everything inside and outside, his eyes inexplicable, and his thoughts changing rapidly:
Tongfu Inn is Zhou Ziyu's property, and they have always used the inn as a place of communication.
Now that the inn is being raided by the government and officers and soldiers, something serious must have happened.
Is this why Zhou Ziyu rushed here from Fengqi Town in a hurry?
But what is it that can cause such consequences?
According to the shopkeeper, the government didn't catch anyone on the spot, so where did Zhou Ziyu go?
What Chu Tang has to consider now is, should he continue to stay in Changjun County?
If you stay here, how will you deal with yourself if you fall into the whirlpool of arrest by the government?
A series of questions made Chu Tang feel uneasy and unable to control himself.
In this way, while Chu Tang was hesitating, the officers and soldiers who found nothing in the inn opposite gradually retreated.
However, the inn was sealed, and there were still a few officers and soldiers guarding the outside, but no one dared to approach.
The excitement dissipated and the crowds left one after another.
Chu Tang finally chose to get a room at the current Shunfeng Inn and stay overnight.
At midnight, everything is silent.
A figure floated out quietly from the Shunfeng Inn. It passed through the sky above the street and entered the Tongfu Inn opposite without disturbing anyone.
He walked gently inside the inn, going up and down, but there was no one around, and he couldn't find any marks.
"They left in a hurry and erased some traces of the past..." The figure walked down the corridor on the third floor, muttering to himself with a disappointed expression.
Just as he was about to go down the stairs to the second floor, there was a sudden movement from the end of the corridor.
Taking a closer look, another black figure floated in!
The figure from before was stunned, and was about to take action when he heard the other person say softly: "Is it Mr. Chu?"
The figure paused: "It's Chu. You are..."
Who else could it be besides Chu Tang!
After deciding to stay at the inn opposite, I made up my mind to visit Tongfu Inn at night to see if I could find any traces left by Zhou Ziyu and his party.
With his light skill at this time, the few officers and soldiers guarding outside did not notice the possibility of him at all.
Now it seems that the officers and soldiers outside neglected their duties and let another person in.
The problem is, Chu Tang really can't recognize the person in front of him wearing night clothes!
"Mr. Chu, if you want to see our young master, please follow me down." The visitor turned around to leave, but his eyes flashed, and with a swish, a figure passed by him, blocking his way. In front of the window at the end of the corridor.
"So fast!" The visitor was shocked by Chu Tang's movement.
He turned around immediately without any hesitation, but he still couldn't move faster than Chu Tang. In the blink of an eye, people were blocking him in front.
"Mr. Chu, what are you..." He was also shocked and his tone was urgent.
Chu Tang stared at him and said, "Who is your Excellency?"
Chu Tang was not masked tonight, but the human skin mask had not been taken off. The only people who could reveal his surname and identity at once were probably Zhou Ziyu's side.
But now that the situation is special, Chu Tang will not listen to one side of the story, let alone just follow others.
"Mr. Chu, it's not convenient to talk here, why can't we talk about it when we get there?" The visitor was helpless.
Chu Tang chuckled: "Would you leave with a stranger easily?"
It has always been Chu Tang's code of conduct to be careful and make no big mistakes. Now that something has obviously happened to Zhou Ziyu, it cannot be ruled out that someone knows Chu Tang's identity through them.
The visitor paused and said, "Young Master Chu, I am a member of the Three-Star Sword Sect. I fought alongside you on the mountain that night."
"Is it you?" Chu Tang glanced at him a few more times, and the figure did seem familiar. "It wasn't just that I fought side by side with Chu that night. It seems that you and several other people besieged Chu in Qingcheng a while ago. certain?"
The visitor smiled bitterly: "I'm just following orders."
Chu Tang hummed and said nothing.
"Master Chu, you still don't believe me?"
Chu Tang asked back: "Looking at your behavior, did you come back specifically to find Chu?"
"Exactly! Our young master thought that Mr. Chu would be here today, but something happened here again. I was afraid that you would be anxious if you couldn't contact me, so I specially ordered you to wait here next time. But I didn't expect that Mr. Chu would be here first in the next step. Got married."
Chu Tang frowned and said, "What happened? Where is Mr. Zhou?"
The visitor wanted to speak but stopped.
"It's already this time and you still want to hide it?" Chu Tang was very unhappy.
The visitor sighed and said, "We have been betrayed!"
"Betrayal?" Chu Tang was stunned, greatly surprised.
The so-called betrayal must have been done by one of our own people.
And judging by his posture, it was obvious that he had tipped off to the government.
The problem is, given Zhou Ziyu's shady status, there are still people who have done things with him who would turn to the government?
It couldn't have been done by another undercover, right?
When he thought of the word "undercover", Chu Tang felt uncomfortable in his heart. After all, he was still considered a young man now - even if he betrayed his elder brother, he would not end well!
"What's going on?" Chu Tang asked.
The person who came did not answer, but said: "If Mr. Chu wants to know the reason, why not follow me and leave here first. When we get to the location, our young master will naturally explain it clearly."
Chu Tang glanced at him and said: "If you don't know the inside story, just tell me. It's just because you are not high-status and not qualified. Why are you talking so much!"
The visitor was immediately embarrassed, and his words were weak: "You..."
"Let's go! It's a waste of Chu's time!" Chu Tang glared at him, turned sideways, and got out of the way.
The visitor couldn't argue, so he snorted coldly, dashed past Chu Tang, and floated out of the window in one quick step.
Chu Tang moved accordingly and disappeared from the window.
Under the night, the man in front did not dare to fall on the street, but walked quickly on the rooftops of various places.
Chu Tang followed suit and followed his pace.
It's just that the difference between the two's Qinggong was reflected in the silent night.
Every time the man puts his foot down on the tile, he always makes a slight sound.
In fact, if you don't listen carefully, there won't be much movement. You can already tell that his Qinggong is somewhat extraordinary.
Zhou Ziyu asked him to sneak into the inn to investigate. He didn't just instigate a random person, but selected the candidate after careful consideration.
However, compared to Chu Tang's Qinggong, there is a world of difference between him and Chu Tang.
As soon as his front foot left, Chu Tang's back foot landed in exactly the same position as his, but every time it fell, it was like a feather blowing by, silently; and like a fallen leaf sneaking in the wind, fluttering and flickering, like a god or an immortal.
The man turned around several times and saw Chu Tang's smiling face behind him. He was so frightened that he almost fell down. However, he finally calmed down and walked on with great admiration.
The two ran like this one behind the other for a moment, and then they landed in an alley.
"Are you here?" Chu Tang's eyes lit up and he glanced around. There seemed to be a single-family house next to him.
He was identifying the direction all the way, and vaguely recognized that this place was probably located to the east of the county city.
The man climbed over the courtyard wall without saying a word.
Chu Tang listened softly for a while, then pulled out his body and floated into the wall. While he was still in the air, he heard a low voice: "Who? Stop..."
Seeing the man in front of him landing in the courtyard and stopping, Chu Tang ignored them and floated past them, heading straight towards the lighted hall in the middle of the courtyard.
As soon as he got closer to less than a foot away, he heard a cry of "Wantless" from the side, and then saw a figure jumping out of the shadows and stabbing him in the head with a sword.
"Huh?" Chu Tang saw a familiar shadow, "Three-star swordsmanship?"
He was not just a simple disciple of the Three-Star Sword Sect, but also the leader of the Three-Star Sword Sect who fought against Jin Changgong that day!
A master of the Seven Realms!
Chu Tang was shocked that such a person could only serve as a night guard, which showed that Zhou Ziyu really encountered a big problem!
Chu Tang, of course, would not be able to catch a sword from a master of the Seventh Realm. Like an eagle hunting for prey, he abruptly stopped his attack, twisted his body, changed direction, and slid past the opponent.
The master of the Seventh Realm was shocked: "This light skill..."
He has never seen a person's lightness function be so smooth. It's as if the whole body is as soft as boneless, as light as a flying feather, and the wind is blowing on the soles of the feet, and it can change directions as much as it wants.
In fact, he had already recognized Chu Tang, but when the other party broke through his protection so easily, he felt humiliated and could not regain his respect. He couldn't help but snorted angrily: "Stay!"
With a swish, he rushed forward like a sharp sword, stabbing Chu Tang's shoulder with the long sword in his hand, trying to force him to change direction and thus hinder his forward speed.
Who would have thought that the other party seemed to be completely unaware of his sharp sword, indifferent, and moved forward like a leisurely stroll.
The master of the Seventh Realm felt greatly offended. He gritted his teeth, kept the sword in his hand, and stabbed straight out.
Since the other party acts like this, he doesn't mind letting the other party suffer a little injury and suffer a big loss!
middle!
Just when the master of the Seventh Realm thought that he had stabbed Chu Tang, whose figure remained unchanged, he only felt a blur in front of his eyes. The figure in front of him flashed, and he took an extra step forward, narrowly avoiding it again and again. He struck the sword with certainty, and without slowing down at all, he flashed to the hall door in an instant.
The master of the Seventh Realm was shocked and thought he was dazzled.
After confirming that his sword attack had indeed failed to add power, he became even more shocked: "How come this guy's light kung fu is so much more powerful than what I saw before? Such movement skills are so mysterious and mysterious that they are no longer human!"
Just as he was about to catch up and stop Chu Tang, a cold voice came from the hall: "Old Qin, stop and let him in!"
The master of the Seven Realms stopped when he heard this and replied: "I understand, young master."
Not to mention it was him, even Chu Tang recognized that the voice inside came from Zhou Ziyu.
"Mr. Zhou, you are really easy to find for Chu!" Chu Tang laughed long and before he finished his voice, he entered the hall and landed in front of Zhou Ziyu.
