Chapter 3 The third time Tianyi Shenshui

Chu Liuxiang said: "That's why he wants to do this, to make others think that these five people killed each other, and all of them died. In this way, their disciples don't even have anyone to take revenge on, so why investigate?" Li Hongxiu sighed lightly: "But he never thought that there is a person in this world who likes to meddle in other people's affairs." Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "I'm afraid he really didn't think of it." Li Hongxiu said: "But who is 'he'? Everyone could be 'he'... Now, all the clues are gone, if you want to investigate, isn't it really like looking for a needle in a haystack?"

Chu Liuxiang said: "Not bad." The body suddenly flew up and jumped into the sea water. Li Hongxiu said loudly: "What are you going to do?" Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "Find the needle." Just hearing a "plop", his body disappeared in the sea like a fish.The sea water, which was reflected golden red by the setting sun, didn't even splash a little. Li Hongxiu stomped his feet and said, "Sister Rong, you...you don't care about him." Su Rongrong said quietly: "In this world, who can control him?" Rongrong found a large piece of canvas and covered the five corpses.

Only then did Song Tian'er dare to come forward. She held a delicately crafted lamp in her right hand and a basket of fruit in her left. The starlight gradually rose, and the sea was as bright as satin. They sat comfortably in the cool sea breeze, but they didn't feel comfortable at all. No one can feel comfortable with the dead bodies of five strangers around. Chu Liuxiang had been gone for a long time, and there was a little fishing fire on the sea in the distance, like the starlight on the sea, Li Hongxiu groaned and said with a smile: "I just hope that he won't be caught as a fish."

Song Tian'er giggled and said, "If someone catches him as a fish, that person must be your brother." Li Hongxiu stared and said: "There is a very strange thing that I always don't understand. Suzhou dialect is obviously the best, but Sister Rong refuses to speak it. Cantonese is obviously like a bird, but someone wants to speak it." .” Song Tian'er made a grimace, and said with a smile: "I know you don't like to listen, so I have to talk about it, and I will piss you off." Before she finished speaking, the whole person jumped up suddenly, screaming and jumping on the deck, something slipped out of her sleeve, it was a fish.

Li Hongxiu clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "It's wonderful, finally someone vented my anger on my behalf." I saw Chu Liuxiang standing there with a smile at some point, holding a fish in his left hand, and there was also a fish in his right hand, but it was already in Song Tianer's collar. Song Tian'er's face turned pale with fright, and she stamped her feet to pinch him. Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "Just now I saw someone you want to see the most. If you screw me up, I won't talk about it." Song Tian'er went to pinch his hand and put her arms around his neck, said: "Quickly tell me who it is?"

Chu Liuxiang blinked, his eyes were like starlight on the sea. He smiled and said, "Who is the person you want to see the most? In today's world, who plays the piano the best? Who paints the best? Who writes poems that make people ecstasy? Who cooks the best dishes in the world? " Before he finished speaking, Li Hongxiu clapped his hands and said: "I see, you are talking about that 'Miao Monk' Wuhua." Song Tian'er took Chu Liuxiang's hand and said, "You really saw him, where is he?" Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "He was sitting alone in a boat, as if he was reciting scriptures or composing a poem. When I suddenly got out of the water, it's a pity you didn't see his expression."

Song Tian'er said, "You know him?" Chu Liuxiang said: "I only met him three times. The first time, I drank wine with him for three days and three nights. The second time, I played chess with him for five days and five nights. The third time, I played chess with him. Said the Buddha for seven days and seven nights." He continued with a smile: "I can't beat him when talking about Buddha, but he can't beat me when drinking." Li Hongxiu couldn't help but asked, "Where are you playing chess?" Chu Liuxiang sighed and said, "I made peace, but this monk refuses."

Li Hongxiu giggled and said, "Except for drinking and fighting, I'm afraid you can't compare to others in anything." Chu Liuxiang said seriously: "Nonsense, at least I eat more than him." Li Hongxiu laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten up. Song Tian'er pulled his sleeve straight and said, "Why don't you invite him to sit down?" Chu Liuxiang said: "He was going to come, but I just told him that there are some girls here who want to see him, and he ran away like a rabbit shot by an arrow." Song Tian'er pursed her lips and said, "He is already a monk, what are you afraid of girls doing?"

Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "I'm afraid because I'm a monk. If I'm not a monk, I won't be afraid." Li Hongxiu smiled coquettishly: "If he is not a monk, I guarantee that he will come faster than a rabbit." Su Rongrong smiled softly and said: "I heard that this person is a famous scholar in Buddhism. Not only are his poems, words, calligraphy, and paintings superb, but he can also be regarded as a master in martial arts." Chu Liuxiang sighed: "Aren't you just a master, he can be said to be the number one genius among Shaolin disciples, but it's a pity that he...he is really too smart, has too many proficiencies, and is too famous, so Shaolin Tianhu When Grandmaster named the future head, he actually chose Wuxiang, who can't compare to him in anything."

Li Hongxiu said: "A person like him would not care about such things." Chu Liuxiang clapped his hands and said, "I don't want Li Hongxiu to be Wuhua's confidante." Su Rongrong said: "Of course he won't have anything to do with this matter, have you seen anyone else?" Chu Liuxiang said: "These corpses all came from the east. I have seen every boat on the east sea. Except for Wuhua, there is only one boat from the martial arts." Su Rongrong said: "Who?" Chu Liuxiang said: "On that boat are the four guardians and elders of the 'beggar gang', as well as their new leader. Do you know that the old leader Ren died last year, so guess who the new leader is?"

Su Rongrong said: "Who?" Chu Liuxiang smiled and said: "Think about it again, he is my friend, he can drink as much as I do, eat as much as I do, and one day, he even drew a portrait of you." Su Rongrong said: "Ah, could it be Nangong Ling?" Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "That's him." Su Rongrong said sweetly: "He actually can be the leader of the beggar gang. It can be seen that the atmosphere in the world has changed. It is no longer a beauty to be old and prudent, and it no longer pays attention to age. It has begun to pay attention to people's talents. This is a gratifying thing." Li Hongxiu said: "Nangong Ling naturally won't have anything to do with this matter, so..." Chu Liuxiang smiled wryly, "So I can't help it." Su Rongrong said softly: "It's best that you have nothing to do, and I don't want to meddle in such nosy matters." Chu Liuxiang stared at the canvas and said, "Think about it, do these five people have anything in common, for example..." Li Hongxiu said: "For example, they are all human beings." Chu Liuxiang smiled bitterly and said, "Apart from this, is there anything else? Think again." Su Rongrong stood up gracefully, and said: "If you want to get off the cabin and think about it, I'll make a pot of strong tea for you. It doesn't matter if you think about it all night. But no one is allowed to sit here and blow the air." The cabin is exquisitely and gorgeously built, and there is absolutely nothing wasted, and there is absolutely nothing that is not pleasing to the eye. Walking down the stairs, one finds an exquisite living room. The lights slowly come down, and the dark cabin gradually becomes brighter.Chu Liuxiang, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, as if suddenly nailed to the floor by a nail, unable to move anymore.There is someone in this cabin, a woman! I saw her with her back to the door, sitting on Chu Liuxiang's favorite chair on weekdays, looking from behind, she only saw her high-rolled temples and a hand, which was a beautiful hand. At this moment, she was holding a cup in her hand, and the cup was filled with the wine that Chu Liuxiang usually liked to drink—she was not polite at all. Chu Liuxiang, Su Rongrong, Li Hongxiu, and Song Tian'er were all stunned on the deck, with their mouths wide open, unable to speak. They didn't even know when this woman came in. Perhaps, she came in when Chu Liuxiang was already in the sea, but she was quite capable of being able to hide it from the eyes and ears of Su Rongrong, Li Hongxiu, and Song Tian'er. He only heard a beautiful but indifferent voice and said slowly: "Chu Liuxiang, the 'Bandit Commander', came in?" Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "That's right, but I went to the wrong door?" The woman said coldly: "You did not go wrong, this is your place." Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "Since it's my place, why are you sitting here, girl?" The woman said: "Because I am happy." Chu Liuxiang laughed loudly and said, "That's a good reason, really good." The woman said: "Besides, I also heard that Chu Liuxiang never refuses girls." She suddenly turned her chair and faced Chu Liuxiang.The light shone on her face. If there is a woman's face that can make a man stop breathing, then it is this woman's face. If there is a woman's eye wave that can stop a man's heartbeat, it is this woman's eye wave. Now, these eyes are concentrating Note Chu Liuxiang.She said leisurely: "Now, is this reason good enough?" Chu Liuxiang murmured: "That's right, this reason has suddenly become good enough, that's great." He finally moved his eyes away from the woman's face, only to find that she was wearing a snow-white gauze gown, and only then did he find that there were silver silk strips around her waist. The woman said slowly: "Now, I'm afraid you already know where I come from." Chu Liuxiang sighed, "I'd rather not know." The woman said: "Why?" Chu Liuxiang said: "If there is a girl in the world that I don't want to deal with, it is the 'Shenshui Palace' sect." The woman stood up suddenly, turned around, took down the silver jug ​​from the shelf, and poured another full glass of wine. Chu Liuxiang sighed heartbroken and said, "I really want to know, you came here for nothing but drinking Besides, what else is there?" As he spoke, he pulled up the chair and sat down quickly. The woman turned her head sideways, stared at his face, and said word by word: "Arrogance, rudeness, and cruelty, but there are also one or two things that can fascinate the little girl... You really look exactly like the one in the legend." .” Chu Liuxiang said: "Thank you... but I don't know if there is another thing about me mentioned in the legends of the world?" The woman said: "What's the matter?" Chu Liuxiang said: "If a strange woman runs into my cabin, sits on my chair, and drinks my wine, I will often throw her into the sea, especially if this woman thinks she is beautiful, but she is not so beautiful. when." He stretched his legs comfortably, ready to admire the woman's angry appearance. The woman really turned pale with anger and her hands were shaking. Li Hongxiu hurried over, gently took the gold cup from her hand, smiled sweetly: "If you want to drop the cup, I'll go and change it to an iron one." The woman's face turned from blue to white, and from white to red, and suddenly she smiled again, saying: "Very well, you are all very interesting, but the time for joking is over now." Chu Liuxiang said, "Are you ready to cry?" The woman said coldly: "If you don't return my things, I'm afraid you won't even be able to cry." Chu Liuxiang said, "Repay you? Did I borrow you something?" The woman said: "You didn't borrow anything, of course you didn't. Everyone in the world knows that Chu Liuxiang would never borrow anything from anyone." She sneered and said, "You are stealing." Chu Liuxiang frowned and said, "Steal? What did I steal from you?" The woman said: "Tianyi Shenshui." Chu Liuxiang's eyes suddenly rounded, and she lost her voice: "What did you say?" The woman said word by word: "Heaven-one-shen-water." Chu Liuxiang was moved and said: "You mean, the Tianyi Shenshui in your palace was stolen?" The woman said: "I have come all the way from thousands of miles, and I am here to lie to you, right?" Chu Liuxiang's eyes shone happily, and he murmured: "It's so wonderful, everything has become more interesting, but I don't know how much of your 'Tianyi Shenshui' has been stolen?" The woman said coldly: "Not much, just a few drops, but it is enough to kill more than thirty first-rate martial arts masters for no apparent reason. If the usage is correct, thirty-seven." Su Rongrong took a deep breath and said, "Do you think he stole it?" The woman smiled and said, "Except for the 'Pirate Commander' Chu Liuxiang, who else can steal every plant and tree from the 'Shenshui Palace'?" Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliments. In this way, if I say that I didn't do this, you will never believe it." The woman said, "Can you convince me?" Chu Liuxiang said: "Maybe... maybe it can." He suddenly jumped up from the chair, grabbed the woman's hand, and said, "At least, you have to let me show you something first, I can guarantee that this thing is very interesting...very interesting." That indifferent and proud girl was dragged out just like that somehow. Su Rongrong sighed: "If he wants to hold a girl's hand, I'm afraid no one can refuse." Song Tian'er blinked her eyes and said, "It would be great if all the disciples of Shenshui Palace were men." Li Hongxiu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if it's a woman, but it's better to be ugly." Song Tian'er giggled and said, "I would be most grateful if I could be as ugly as a hag." The canvas was lifted. The corpse looked even more terrifying under the starlight. Chu Liuxiang said: "Look at her first, you should know her, right?" The woman stared at the body of the girl whose shoulder had been cut off, as if looking at a stone, with a blank expression on her face, and said coldly: "This is not a disciple of Shenshui Palace." Chu Liuxiang was finally taken aback, and lost her voice: "No?" The woman said: "I have never seen this person in my life." Chu Liuxiang touched her nose, as if she had just been punched in the face, and said with a wry smile: "I thought Shenshui was stolen by people in your own palace. I thought it was her, but now—" The woman said coldly, "Do you still find it interesting now?" Chu Liuxiang murmured: "This woman is not a member of Shenshui Palace, why she dresses up like this is naturally not her own idea, but 'he' dressed her up like this to arouse the illusion of others." The woman said: "What illusion?" Chu Liuxiang said: "He wants others to think that Jamuka was killed by this woman, then since she also died in Jamuka's hands, everything will be over. He obviously doesn't want others to continue to pursue this matter. This poor woman became his scapegoat." The woman said leisurely: "If you say that, you must know who he is?" Chu Liuxiang snorted and said, "I wish I knew."
