Chapter - 33 Words About Death And Disaster Hold Uncertain Meanings (5)

The monk on the right said, "I am Yuan Yin. This is my martial brother Yuan Ye." Zhang CuiShan said, "Oh, so you are the Yuan generation at Shaolin. May I ask why you're here?"

Yuan Yin seemed to be gasping for breath when speaking, said, "This is a serious matter between us Wu Dang and Shaolin. Although we are of the younger generation, we still must intervene in this matter. I ask of you. Now that you've kill all the people in the Dragon Gate Protection Agency, in addition to two of my martial nephews. I want to ask, how Fifth Hero Zhang intends to solve this dilemma involving so many deaths." Despite the courteous nature of his tone, his words were very critical.

Zhang CuiShan said coldly, "I'm also trying to find out who killed these people. But since you're so sure that I did it, I ask you. Did you actually see me murder anyone?" Yuan Yin yelled, "Hui Feng. Why don't you have a chat with Hero Zhang?"

Four yellow-robed monks appeared from the forest, the same ones Zhang CuiShan knocked down earlier. That monk named Hui Feng steped up and said, "Martial uncle. It's indeed him. He killed all the people in the agency, plus brothers Hui Tong and Hui Guang." Yuan Yin said, "You saw it with your own eyes?" Hui Feng said, "Yes. If the four of us hadn't escaped quickly enough, we would've also been dead." Yuan Yin said, "Monks cannot lie. Plus the reputations of Wu Dang and Shaolin are at stake here. Are you absolutely certain of what you saw?" Hui Feng got on his knees and said, "With the Holy Buddha above listening, every word I now say is the exact truth." Yuan Yin said, "Good. Now recall the exact events." When Zhang CuiShan heard this, he quickly jumped down the wall.

Yuan Ye thought that Zhang CuiShan wanted to kill Hui Feng, and quickly attacked him with a sweep of his staff. Zhang CuiShan lowered his head and easily dodged the attack, in a smooth motion, twisted around behind Hui Feng. Yuan Ye originally planned on following up with another attack, but saw that he can no longer hurt Zhang CuiShan without first hurting Hui Feng. Yuan Ye retracted his staff and said, "What do you want?"

Zhang CuiShan said, "I just want to hear a bit more closely, hear exactly just how I killed all those people."

Seeing Zhang CuiShan behind him, Hui Feng knew that if he made any hasty moves, Zhang CuiShan could immediately kill him. Even his martial uncles won't be able to help him. But due to his anger towards, Hui Feng did not flinch, yelled, "A few days ago, martial uncle Yuan Xin received a letter from martial brother Du DaJin, north of the Yangtze river. He immediately sent Hui Tong and Hui Guang to help out. Then he sent me a note to also come here, with three fellow martial brothers. Upon entering, Brother Hui Guang said that the enemy might be here tonight, and that the four of us should guard outside. He also told us to not fall for any diversions." Yuan Yin said, "Then what? Keep going."

Hui Feng said, "Soon after dark, I heard Hui Tong fighting in the back hall, followed by a loud scream, as if he were gravely injured. By the time I got there, he's already dead… this bastard Zhang…"

He turned around and pointed his finger at Zhang CuiShan, almost touching his nose, yelling, "I saw you push Brother Hui Guang to the wall with your palm, killing him. I know I'm no match for you, so I simply watched through the window. Then eight people tried to escape, and you followed them outside, killed them all with your hands, not even letting go the old and the young. Afterwards, you left." Zhang CuiShan did not move at all. Even while Hui Feng's salive fell on his face, he neither dodged nor retaliated. Afterwards, he said coldly, "Then what?"

Hui Feng continued, "After that, I discussed with my three brothers on what to do next. Everyone thought your kung fu was too powerful for us, so we should stay low for a moment. Who'd have thought that you'd come back again just then. We knew we couldn't beat you, but at that moment, we didn't think that that much. I asked for your name, didn't you say that you are Wu Dang's Zhang CuiShan? At first I didn't believe you, thinking that the heroes of Wu Dang would not do such a thing. But when you showed your weapons, I had to believe you."

Zhang CuiShan said, "I admit that I did indeed give you my name, showed my weapons, and knocked the four of you down. But are absolutely certain that I'm the one who killed everyone in the escort agency?"

At this moment, Yuan Yin flew up, grabbed Hui Feng's body and pushed him into the distance. He said, "He already told you the whole event. So the renowned Fifth Hero Zhang could not try to hide the truth." He pushed Hui Feng aside so Zhang CuiShan could not try to kill this witness.

Hui Feng said to Zhang CuiShan, "Fine, I'll say it again. I personally saw you killed Hui Guang and Hui Tong, personally saw you killing the eight people in the escort agency." Zhang CuiShan said, "Did you see my face clearly? Was I wearing this same outfit?" As he spoke he took out a match, lighting up his face and body. Hui Feng stared at him with great disdain, said, "You were wearing this robe exactly. At that time, you had a fan in your left hand. Now you have it on your waist."

Zhang CuiShan felt his stomach boiling, not knowing why this monk would purposely say such a lie, walked up and stared into his face, yelled, "If you have the guts, say those words again. Say that it's me who killed them all, not someone else!"

Hui Feng's eyes suddenly let out a strange expression. He pointed at Zhang CuiShan and said, "You… you're… you're not…" and instantly he fell down onto the ground. Yuan Yin and Yuan Ye quickly went up to look check his condition, only to see an expression of shock on Hui Feng's face, with no pulse in his body.

Yuan Yin yelled, "You… You killed him?" Zhang CuiShan also did not expect to see this turn of events. He quickly turned around, only to see a shadow running away among the trees. He yelled, "Stop!" and immediately flew toward the shadow. If he couldn't find the real killer at this moment, he'd be misunderstood as the killer.

Who'd have thought that while in midair, two swooshes of wind would come from behind, as two staffs caught up to him from left and right. At the same time, the two monks yelled, "Don't think you can get away, murderer!" Zhang CuiShan's brush and hook both swept down, writing the word 'Saber'[only two strokes to this character] in a backhanded manner. His hook bent around and trapped Yuan Ye's staff point, while his brush cast aside Yuan Yin's staff. Borrowing their power, he quickly flew over them to land on the roof behind them. Zhang CuiShan then tried to scan the area, but saw no person in sight.

Yuan Ye quickly jumped up to the roof for another attack. Zhang CuiShan yelled, "I need to find the killer. Don't get in my way!" Yuan Yin said in rage, "You… you killed him in front of my face, and yet try to deny it?" Zhang CuiShan flung Yuan Yin's staff to the side, preventing him from coming up.

Yuan Yin said, "Fifth Hero Zhang. We don't want to take your life. You simply need to drop your weapons, come with us to the Shaolin, and let the abbot pass judgment on you." Zhang CuiShan said angrily, "I can't believe you're actually 'Yuan' generation Shaolin experts. The real killer came and went without you even noticing." Yuan Yin said, "Look, I can't personally decide your fate for killing my fellow brothers. So please come with us to Shaolin." Zhang CuiShan said coldly, "Urgh! I can't believe the Yuan generation at Shaolin is filled with idiots. You can't even see who the real killer is?" Yuan Yin said, "I'm sorry. You have too much blood on your hands. We can't let you escape."
