Chapter 4 The third big Jinpeng king

The corridor was gloomy and dark, as if the sun had not been seen for years.At the end of the long corridor is a very wide door, but the golden ring on the door is shining brightly. When they opened the door, they saw King Jinpeng. King Jinpeng is not a very tall person. His person seemed to have shriveled and shriveled due to the passage of time and the loss of ambition, just like a magnificent big cockscomb that has just withered in the annoying west wind. He was sitting on a large chair covered with brocade cushions, making him look like a dead pine tree that had fallen into the clouds on a high mountain.

But Lu Xiaofeng didn't feel disappointed, because his eyes were still shining, and there was still an indescribable dignity and nobility in his expression. The broad-eared, long-legged hound had come back first, and was crouching at his feet. Princess Danfeng also walked over gently, prostrated herself at his feet, as if she was talking about her trip in a low voice. King Jinpeng's bright eyes kept staring at Lu Xiaofeng, and he suddenly said, "Young man, come here." His voice was deep and powerful, and his words seemed to be orders.Lu Xiaofeng didn't go over. Lu Xiaofeng is not a person who is used to accepting orders, instead he sat down on a chair far away from the old man.

The light in the room was also very dark, but King Jinpeng's eyes became brighter, and he said sharply, "You are Lu Xiaofeng?" Lu Xiaofeng said lightly: "It's Lu Xiaofeng, not Shangguan Danfeng." He now knows that his surname is also Shangguan—in the past, everyone in their dynasty was surnamed Shangguan, and everyone has been proud of their surname for generations. King Dajinpeng laughed suddenly, and said: "Okay, Lu Xiaofeng really deserves to be Lu Xiaofeng, it seems that we did not find the wrong person." Lu Xiaofeng said: "I also hope that I didn't find the wrong person."

King Jinpeng said: "Are you looking for Huamanlou?" Lu Xiaofeng nodded. King Jinpeng said: "He is very good, as long as you promise me one thing, you can see him anytime." Lu Xiaofeng said: "What are you talking about?" King Jinpeng did not directly answer this sentence. He stared at a strangely shaped ring on his hand, and a strange light suddenly shone on his old face.After a long time, he slowly said: "Our dynasty is a very old dynasty. Our dynasty existed long before your dynasty was established." His voice grew stronger, clearly proud of his family name and bloodline.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't want to destroy the dignity of an old man, so he just listened and didn't say anything. King Jinpeng said: "Although our dynasty has fallen now, the blood we shed is still the blood of the royal family. As long as one of our people is alive, our dynasty will never be wiped out!" His voice is not only full of pride, but also full of confidence. Lu Xiaofeng suddenly felt that this old man did have something worthy of respect, at least he was definitely not someone who would be easily knocked down. Lu Xiaofeng has always respected such people, their courage and confidence.

King Jinpeng said: "Although our dynasty was established in a faraway place, it has been peaceful and prosperous for generations. Not only the fields have abundant harvests, but also there are countless golden sands and treasures in the deep mountains." Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help asking: "Then why did you come to Middle Earth?" The brilliance on King Jinpeng's face dimmed, and there was a deep hatred in his eyes, he said: "It is because of our wealth that we have aroused the covetousness of our neighbors, and we even joined forces with the Cossack cavalry to attract troops to invade. "

He continued sadly: "That was fifty years ago. I was still young at that time. The late kings always paid attention to martial arts. Of course, they couldn't resist their strong and barbaric cavalry, but he still decided to stick to it and fight with the country. Live and die." Lu Xiaofeng said: "He wants you to take refuge in Middle Earth?" King Dajinpeng nodded and said: "In order to preserve part of our strength and seek future prosperity, he not only insisted that I go, but also divided the treasury's wealth into four and handed it over to his four confidant ministers, asking them to bring I am coming to Middle-earth."

With a look of gratitude on his face, he said again: "One of them is my uncle Shangguan Jin. He brought me here and used a portion of the wealth he brought to buy land and houses here, making our family happy. Being able to live without any worries until now, his kindness to us is something I will never forget in my lifetime." Lu Xiaofeng said: "There are three others?" King Jinpeng's gratitude turned into resentment again, and said: "I have never seen them since the day I left my father, but I will never forget their names." Lu Xiaofeng had just gotten a clue about this matter, so he immediately asked, "What are their names?"

King Jinpeng clenched his fists and said bitterly: "Shangguanmu, Ping Duhe, Yan Liben." Lu Xiaofeng pondered, and said: "I have never heard of the names of these three people." King Jinpeng said: "But you must have seen their people." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Oh?" King Jinpeng said: "As soon as they arrived in Zhongtu, they changed their names and surnames. I didn't find out their whereabouts until a year ago." He suddenly made a gesture to his daughter, and Princess Danfeng took out three volumes of picture albums from a solid and ancient cabinet behind his seat.

King Jinpeng said bitterly: "The picture above is the three of them. I think you recognize at least two of them." On each scroll, there are two portraits, one young and one old—the two portraits are originally of the same person. Princess Danfeng spread out the first scroll of paintings, and said: "The portrait on the top is his shape when he left the palace, and the one below is his current appearance as we found out a year ago." The man had a round, smiling face, and looked very kind, but he had a large, hooked nose. Lu Xiaofeng frowned, and said: "This person looks very much like Yan Tieshan from the Yan family of Guanzhong Jewelry."

King Jinpeng gritted his teeth and said, "That's right, Yan Tieshan now is the same Yan Liben back then. I'm only grateful to God for not letting him die yet." The person in the second picture has high cheekbones and a pair of triangular eyes that radiate majesty. One can tell at a glance that he is a very powerful person. When Lu Xiaofeng saw this person, his expression changed a little. King Da Jinpeng said: "This person is Ping Duhe, his current name is Dugu Yihe, and he is the leader of Tsingyi Tower..." Lu Xiaofeng was shocked, and after a long pause, he slowly said: "I also recognize this person, but I don't know that he is the owner of the first floor of Qingyi Building." He sighed a long time, and said again: "I only know that he is the current head of the Emei Sword Sect." King Jinpeng said bitterly: "His identity is well concealed. I'm afraid no one in the world will ever think that the just and strict head of Emei is actually a traitor who betrayed his old master!" The third portrait is a thin old man, short, lonely, clean and tough. Lu Xiaofeng almost couldn't help shouting: "Huo Xiu!" King Jinpeng said: "That's right, Huo Xiu, Shangguanmu's current name is Huo Xiu!" He went on to say: "Others say that Huo Xiu is the most legendary person. Fifty years ago, he came out to conquer the world with bare hands, and suddenly became the world's richest man miraculously. I'm afraid the Chinese still don't know how he got his huge wealth!" Lu Xiaofeng's face suddenly turned pale, and he took a few steps back slowly, sitting on the chair. King Jinpeng stared at him, and slowly said: "Now you must be able to guess what we are asking you to do." Lu Xiaofeng was silent for a long time, sighed, and said, "But I still don't know what exactly you want?" King Jinpeng clenched his fists, beat the chair hard, and said sharply: "I don't want anything, all I want is justice!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Justice is revenge?" King Jinpeng's face was ashen, and he was silent. Lu Xiaofeng said: "Do you want me to take revenge for you?" King Jinpeng was silent for a long time, and suddenly heaved a long sigh, and said sadly: "They are all old people who are about to enter the coffin, and I am also old, do I still want to kill them?" He shook his head, denied his words, and said, "But I will never let them get away with it like this." Lu Xiaofeng didn't say anything, he couldn't say anything. King Jinpeng said sharply again: "First, I want them to return the wealth brought out from the Jinpeng Dynasty to the Jinpeng Dynasty, and keep it as the basis for future revival." This request is indeed very fair. King Jinpeng said: "Second. I want them to go to the spiritual seat of the late king in person and repent of their mistakes, so that the spirit of the late king can also get some comfort." Lu Xiaofeng pondered, and sighed: "These two requirements are indeed very fair." Da Jinpeng Wang Zhanyan said: "I know you are an upright and fair young man, and you will never refuse such a request." Lu Xiaofeng pondered for a long time, and said with a wry smile, "I'm afraid that these two things will be difficult to do." King Jinpeng said: "If even you can't do it, who else can?" Lu Xiaofeng sighed: "Maybe no one can do it." He quickly went on to say: "Now these three people are already the most famous people in the world today. If they really did this, wouldn't it be tantamount to admitting their crimes back then? Their fame, status and wealth , could it be that everything will be destroyed immediately!" King Jinpeng looked even more sad, and said: "I also know that they themselves will never admit it." Lu Xiaofeng said: "What's more, not only their financial resources and influence are already terrifyingly large, but also they all have unfathomable martial arts." Da Jinpeng King said: "The former king entrusted this important task to them because they are the first-class masters in the Jinpeng Dynasty!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "In the past fifty years, they must have been on guard against you to seek revenge from them at any time, so I don't know how much their martial arts have improved?" He sighed again, and continued: "I often say that there are only five or six people who can truly reach the peak of martial arts in the world today, including Huo Xiu and Dugu Yihe." Women are curious after all, so Princess Danfeng couldn't help asking: "Who are the other three or four people?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Shaolin Abbot Dabei Zen Master, Wudang Elder Mu Taoist, both internal and external skills have reached the peak, but if you talk about the sharpness and ingenuity of swordsmanship, you have to count Feixian Island in the South China Sea, 'White Cloud City Lord' Ye Gucheng and 'Wanmei Villa ' Ximen Chuuxue." Princess Danfeng stared at him and said, "What about you?" Lu Xiaofeng smiled and didn't say anything - he didn't need to say anything. King Jinpeng suddenly sighed again, and said sadly: "I also know the difficulty and danger of this matter, so I don't want to force you to help us, you might as well think about it." His brows were full of grief and indignation, he clenched his fists and said sharply: "But we ourselves will fight them no matter what. As long as one of us is alive, we will fight them to the end." Lu Xiaofeng sighed: "I understand." King Jinpeng was silent for a long time, then forced a smile again, and said loudly: "No matter what, Mr. Lu is always our distinguished guest, why don't you serve wine?" Princess Danfeng bowed her head and said, "I'll ask someone to prepare it." King Jinpeng said: "If you want the best Persian wine, please invite the young man along with you." Princess Danfeng said: "Yes." King Jinpeng looked at Lu Xiaofeng, his expression became proud and solemn again, and he said slowly: "No matter what, you are our friend, and the descendants of the Jinpeng Dynasty have never threatened a friend with anything." The silver bottle is ancient and elegant, and the wine is lavender. Lu Xiaofeng watched quietly as Princess Danfeng poured wine into the simple tall cup, while Hua Manlou was sitting beside him. They didn't say anything, they just shook hands with each other. That's enough to explain everything.The wine is full, only three glasses. King Jinpeng raised his head and said with a smile, "I haven't been able to drink for many years, so today I make an exception to have a drink with you two." But Princess Danfeng shook her head and said, "I'll drink it for you, don't forget your legs." King Jinpeng widened his eyes, but finally smiled wryly, and said, "Okay, I won't drink. Fortunately, watching other people drink is also a pleasure. Good wine can always bring people spirit and vitality." Princess Danfeng smiled and explained to Lu Xiaofeng, saying: "As long as my father drinks a little wine, his legs will swell up immediately, and he will become unable to move an inch. I think you two will forgive him." Lu Xiaofeng smiled and toasted. Princess Danfeng turned around, with her father behind her back, and suddenly made a very strange expression to Lu Xiaofeng.Lu Xiaofeng couldn't understand. Princess Danfeng also raised her glass with a smile, and said: "This is Persian wine that my father has cellared for many years, but I hope it can suit the tastes of both of you." She raised her glass and drank it all, then sighed softly, and said, "It really is good wine." Few hosts would praise their own wine repeatedly, and Princess Danfeng is definitely not a person who likes to show off. Lu Xiaofeng was feeling strange when he suddenly realized that what he drank was not wine, but sugar water with added color. He suddenly understood what Princess Danfeng meant, but he was afraid that Hua Manlou would not see her expression. Hua Manlou was smiling, drank his wine with a smile, sighed, and said, "It really is a good wine!" Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "I've never had such a good wine!" King Jinpeng laughed, the first time he really laughed happily, and said: "This is indeed a good wine that is hard to find in the world, but you two young people are indeed worthy of my good wine." Lu Xiaofeng quickly drank three more cups, then suddenly smiled and said: "Such a good wine, of course you can't drink it for nothing." King Jinpeng's eyes lit up, looked at him, and said, "You mean..." Lu Xiaofeng took a long breath and said: "You want justice, I will try my best to get it back for you!" King Jinpeng suddenly stood tall, staggered towards him, supported his shoulders with both hands, his old eyes were filled with tears of gratitude, and even his voice was choked: "Thank you, thank you, thank you ..." He kept saying two sentences over and over again, and he didn't know how many times he had said them. Princess Danfeng watched from the side, and couldn't help turning around, and quietly wiped away her tears. After a long time, King Jinpeng became calmer and said again: "Although Dugu Fang and Dugu Yihe have the same surname Dugu, they have a deep hatred like a sea. Half of Liu Yuhen's face was cut off by Yan Tieshan. Xiao Qiuyu They are Liu Yuhen's life-and-death friends, as long as you can do this for us, the three of them will go through fire and water, and they will go with you." Lu Xiaofeng said, "It's better for them to stay here." King Jinpeng frowned and said, "Why?" Lu Xiaofeng sighed, and said: "I also know that they are all first-class masters in the martial arts, but if they are to deal with Dugu Yihe and Huo Xiu, it is really like asking them to die." King Jinpeng said: "You... don't you want other helpers?" He patted Hua Manlou's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile, "We are old partners." King Jinpeng looked at Huamanlou, as if he was a little suspicious. He really didn't believe that this blind man could be stronger than experts like Liu Yuhen, Xiao Qiuyu, and Dugufang, he was afraid that no one would believe it. Lu Xiaofeng continued: "Besides him, of course I have to find two or three people!" King Jinpeng said: "Who are you looking for?" Lu Xiaofeng murmured, and said: "We must find Zhu Ting first." Da Jinpeng king said: "Zhu Ting?" He had evidently never heard the name. Lu Xiaofeng smiled, and said: "Zhu Ting is not an expert, but he is very useful now." King Jinpeng was waiting for his explanation. Lu Xiaofeng said: "Since you have found them, they may have already found you. If you want to settle accounts with them, they will probably act first and kill you!" King Jinpeng sneered, "I'm not afraid!" Lu Xiaofeng sighed, and said: "You are not afraid, I am, so I must ask Zhu to stop, only he can transform this place into a castle that is difficult for anyone to break into." Da Jinpeng kingly said: "He knows how to make news about organs?" Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "As long as he is willing to do it, he can even make a chair that can bite people." King Jinpeng also laughed and said, "It seems that you do have many strange friends." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Now I just hope that I can persuade someone to come out and help me with this matter." King Jinpeng's eyes flickered, and he said, "Is he also useful?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "If he is willing to take action, this matter will have a chance of success." King Jinpeng said: "Who is this person?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Ximen Chuuxue." The corridor was darker and darker, it was already afternoon. Princess Danfeng lowered her head, her jet-black hair draped over her shoulders like a spring spring, and said softly: "I really don't know how to thank you for what happened just now." Lu Xiaofeng said: "You mean the glass of wine just now?" Princess Danfeng blushed, lowered her head and said: "Now you may have seen that my father is a very competitive person, and he can't stand any more blows, so I have been unwilling to let him know the truth." Lu Xiaofeng said: "I understand." Princess Danfeng sighed faintly, and said: "Except for the living room and bedroom of the old man's daily life, the other houses in this place are almost completely empty. Sold it." Her head hangs even lower: "There is almost no one in our family who can give birth. It is not easy to maintain this family. Besides, we have to do many other things. In order to find you, even our late mother The string of pearls left to me have been pawned by me to others." Lu Xiaofeng sighed, and said: "I didn't know your situation very well, but that glass of wine told me a lot." Princess Danfeng suddenly raised her head, stared at him, and said, "Just because you already know about our situation, you agreed?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Of course it's also because he already regards me as a friend and didn't threaten me with other things!" Princess Danfeng looked at him, tears of gratitude appeared in her beautiful eyes. So she quickly lowered her head, and said softly: "I've been wrong all along, I always thought you were a person who would never be moved by emotions!" Hua Manlou was smiling all the time. He listened more than talked, and now he smiled and said: "I said that although this person looks stinky and hard, his heart is as soft as tofu." Princess Danfeng couldn't help but smiled, and said: "Actually, you are wrong too!" Hua Manlou said: "Oh?" Princess Danfeng said: "Although he looks tough, he doesn't smell bad at all." Before finishing this sentence, she herself blushed, and immediately changed the subject, saying: "The guest room is really shabby, I just hope you don't mind." Lu Xiaofeng coughed lightly, and said, "Maybe we shouldn't agree to stay for dinner at all." Princess Danfeng suddenly smiled again and said, "Don't forget that we still have the four ingots of gold you left for us." Lu Xiaofeng's eyes flashed, and he said: "At that time, you already knew that Old Man Huo was the person you were looking for?" Princess Danfeng said: "We won't know until you say it." Lu Xiaofeng's expression suddenly became very serious, and said: "But how do you know that Dugu Yihe is the owner of Qingyi Building? This is the biggest secret in Jianghu!" Princess Danfeng hesitated, and finally replied: "Because Liu Yuhen was originally one of his most powerful confidantes, it was because of him that the handsome 'Jade Faced Lord' became what he is today." Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up, as if he had suddenly figured out a lot of things. Princess Danfeng sighed lightly, and said again: "Love is full of hatred since ancient times, he is a sad person, and his heart has been broken." The guest room is large, but apart from a bed, a few old chairs, there are almost no other furnishings. Hua Manlou sat down. Although he couldn't see it, he seemed to always feel where the chair was. Lu Xiaofeng looked at him, and suddenly asked: "Have you never sat idle?" Hua Manlou smiled and said, "You want me to sit empty?" Lu Xiaofeng also laughed, and said: "I only hope that when you sit down, you suddenly find yourself sitting on a woman." Huamanlou said, "You have more experience than me." Lu Xiaofeng said lightly: "If you have as much experience as I do, maybe you won't be fooled!" Hua Manlou said: "Who was fooled by?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "You have forgotten Shangguan Feiyan?" Hua Manlou smiled and said, "I wasn't fooled, I came here willingly." Lu Xiaofeng was very surprised, and said, "You are willing to come? Why?" Hua Manlou said: "Maybe because my life is too ordinary recently, I really want to find one or two dangerous and interesting things to do!" Lu Xiaofeng said coldly: "Maybe you were just deceived by a beautiful woman who is good at lying!" Hua Manlou smiled and said, "She is indeed a girl who is very good at lying, but she told me the truth." Lu Xiaofeng said: "She already told you about this?" Hua Manlou nodded. Lu Xiaofeng said: "Perhaps she has discovered that the best way to deal with people like you is to tell the truth." Huamanlou said: "Maybe." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Her purpose is to ask you to come, since you have come, she has achieved her purpose." Hua Manlou smiled and said, "You seem to want to make me angry?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Aren't you angry?" Hua Manlou smiled and said: "Why should I be angry? They picked me up in a carriage and received me with the honor of a distinguished guest. The weather here is sunny and the flowers are blooming in the yard. What's more, now that you're here, I'll be fine." I really fell for her, and I have nothing to complain about." Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help laughing and said: "It seems that it is really not easy to make you angry." Hua Manlou suddenly asked: "Do you really want to find Ximen Chuuxue?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes!" Hua Manlou said: "Can you persuade him to do things for others?" Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly: "I also know that there seems to be nothing in the world that can impress him, but I have to try." Hua Manlou said: "And then?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "I haven't thought of anything else yet, I just want to go outside and look around." Hua Manlou said: "What do you want to see?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Perhaps what I want to see most is Shangguan Feiyan." Hua Manlou was still smiling, but there seemed to be some worry in the smile, and he said lightly, "You can't see her!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why?" Hua Manlou said: "Since I came here, I haven't heard her voice again. She seems to have left here." Lu Xiaofeng looked at him, and there seemed to be some worry in his eyes. Hua Manlou smiled again, and said, "She seems to be a woman who is not easy to settle down." Lu Xiaofeng suddenly laughed too, and said: "Actually, which woman is not like this?" It had just darkened in the room, Hua Manlou was sitting there quietly by himself, still looking so happy and peaceful. He is always happy and satisfied, because no matter where he is, he can enjoy some fun that others can't. Now he is enjoying the dusk in late spring and March. Then he heard a knock on the door. As soon as the knock on the door rang, the door was pushed open and walked in. There were two people, Dugu Fang and Xiao Qiuyu. But there was only one person's footsteps, and Dugu Fang's footsteps were lighter than the spring breeze. Hua Manlou smiled and said, "Please sit down, both of you, I know how many chairs are left here!" He neither asked why they came nor who they were, and he welcomed everyone who came into his house, and he would share everything he had with this person. Dugu Fang lowered his face, and said coldly, "How do you know we are two people? Are you really blind?" He originally thought that no one would hear his footsteps, he has always been very proud of his lightness skills!So he is very unhappy now. Hua Manlou was equally happy, and said with a smile: "Sometimes even I myself don't believe that I'm really blind, because I always think that only those people who have eyes but refuse to see are really blind. " Xiao Qiuyu was also smiling, and said: "You forgot that there is another kind of people who are really blind." Hua Manlou said, "What kind of person?" Xiao Qiuyu said: "Dead." Hua Manlou laughed and said, "How do you know that the dead are really blind? Maybe the dead can also see many things. We are not dead yet, so how can we know the feeling of the dead?" Dugu Fang said coldly: "Maybe you will know soon!" Xiao Qiuyu said leisurely: "We don't know you, and we don't have hatred with you, but now we are here to kill you!" Not only was Hua Manlou not surprised, he didn't even show any displeasure. He was still smiling, and said with a faint smile, "Actually, I've been waiting for the two of you for a long time!" Dugu Fang said: "Do you know that we are coming to kill you?" Hua Manlou said: "Lu Xiaofeng is not stupid, but he has offended far more people than he imagined, because sometimes he talks like a big fool." Dugu Fang sneered. Hua Manlou said: "No one wants others to think that he is inferior to a blind man, let alone two such masters, of course this is something that cannot be tolerated, and of course the two of you will compare yourself to a blind man like me!" His expression was still the same calm, and he continued slowly: "The worst thing a hero in the world can't bear is this tone!" Dugu Fang said: "What about you?" Hua Manlou said: "I'm not a hero, I'm just blind." Although Dugu Fang was still sneering, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression on his face. The blind man knew too many facts. Xiao Qiuyu said: "You know we are coming, but you are still waiting here?" Hua Manlou said, "Where can a blind man go?" Dugu Fang suddenly yelled, "Go to hell!" While drinking, he had already made a move, and a shiny training gun had pierced Huamanlou's throat like a poisonous snake. Heartbroken Sword has also been shot! He moved very slowly, and if he was slow, there would be no wind. Blind people can't see the sword, they can only hear the wind when a sword stabs. This sword has no wind at all, this sword is the sword that can truly break the heart of a blind man. What's more, there is also a training gun like a poisonous snake, rushing to attack in front.Even if the Lianzi Spear cannot be hit with one blow, this sword will never miss. But Xiao Qiuyu was wrong. Apart from being able to hear with his ears, the blind man seemed to have a strange and mysterious feeling. He seemed to have felt that what was really deadly was not the gun, but the sword—a sword he could neither see nor hear! Before the sword stabbed, he turned over suddenly, and when the training gun swept over his shoulder, his hands had already caught the edge of the sword with a "snap". "Ge Ge" sounded twice, and a long sword of hundred-refined steel was suddenly broken into three pieces—others' intestines were not broken, but his sword was already broken. The longest piece was still caught in Hua Manlou's hand, and when he backhanded, the training gun had already wrapped around the sword's edge. The man in Huamanlou had already slid three feet out, slid to the window, and happened to be sitting on a chair under the window. Dugu Fang was stunned, Xiao Qiuyu's face looked like a blank sheet of paper in the twilight. Hua Manlou smiled and said: "I didn't want to offend Mr. Xiao, but Mr. Xiao's sword is too cruel for a blind man. I only hope that after Mr. Xiao changed his sword, he will strike again." Sometimes it can leave two or three points for others to retreat." There were indeed many flowers and trees in the garden, but now many flowering branches have been broken. Only now did Lu Xiaofeng know where the flowers that Princess Danfeng brought came from. Just then, he saw the little girl again. Shangguan Xueer was standing among the flowers, under the setting sun.The faint setting sun shines on her silky soft and smooth hair. She still looks very obedient, as if she has never told half a lie. Lu Xiaofeng smiled, couldn't help but went over to say hello, "Hello, little cousin." Shangguan Xue'er turned her head to look at him, smiled and said, "Hey, little cousin." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Hello!" Shangguan Xue'er said: "I'm not good!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why not?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "I have something on my mind, a lot of things on my mind." Lu Xiaofeng suddenly noticed that there seemed to be an indescribable melancholy in her big bright eyes, and even her sweet smile seemed to have become a little forced. He couldn't help asking: "What's on your mind?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "I'm worried about my sister." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Your sister? Shangguan Feiyan?" Shangguan Xueer nodded. Lu Xiaofeng said: "What are you worried about her?" Shangguan Xueer said: "She suddenly disappeared." Lu Xiaofeng said: "When did you disappear?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "It was the day Hua Manlou came here, and it was the day we went out to find you." Lu Xiaofeng stared, and said: "Since you are worried, why don't you go to find her?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "Because she said she would stay here and wait for us to come back." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Do you believe everything she says?" Shangguan Xueer said: "Of course I do." Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help laughing and said: "Since she didn't go out, why did she suddenly disappear?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "I can't figure it out either, so I'm looking for her." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Looking for it in this garden?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "Yes!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Could it be that she is hiding in this garden, and has been hiding for several days?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "I'm not looking for her person, I'm looking for her corpse." Lu Xiaofeng frowned and said, "Her corpse?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "I think she must have been killed, and then her body will be buried in this garden!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "This is your own home, could someone kill her?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "Although this is our own home, there are other people in the home." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Anyone else?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "For example, your friend Huamanlou." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Do you think Huamanlou can kill people?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "Why not? Everyone can kill, even the old prince!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "The old prince might kill her too? Why?" Shangguan Xue'er said: "It's because I don't know why, so I'm looking for it!" Lu Xiaofeng sighed lightly, and said: "You think too much, a twelve-year-old girl shouldn't think so much!" Shangguan Xue'er looked at him for a long time before slowly asking: "Who said I'm only twelve years old?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Your cousin said so." Shangguan Xue'er said: "You believe what she says, why don't you believe what I say?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Because..." Shangguan Xue'er sneered, "Is it because I look like a liar by nature?" Lu Xiaofeng laughed again, and said, "At least you don't look like a twenty-year-old woman." Shangguan Xue'er looked at him for a long time, then sighed suddenly, and said: "The biggest problem with you is that you are smart. You don't believe what you should believe, and you believe what you shouldn't." Before she could finish her sentence, her figure flashed and disappeared into the flowers. The twilight was dim, and even the last touch of the setting sun was no longer visible, and the earth was gradually shrouded in darkness. The flowers in the garden gradually lost their color. Facing the foggy twilight, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly felt that this place was already in the fog. People are also in the fog. Evening was darker, and there were no lights in the house. When Lu Xiaofeng came in, Huamanlou was still sitting by the window, as if he was enjoying the spring breeze blowing in from the window, the fragrance carried in the spring breeze, he enjoyed life anytime and anywhere. Lu Xiaofeng suddenly asked: "Have they been here?" Hua Manlou said: "Who has been here?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Dugu Fang and Xiao Qiuyu." Hua Manlou said: "Did you know they would come?" Lu Xiaofeng smiled, and said: "Liu Yuhen would not kill you for such a thing, but they—they can't kill you either." Hua Manlou stared at him, smiled and said, "You seem to be very accurate." Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "If I wasn't sure, why did I sneak out just now?" Hua Manlou said: "You deliberately provoked them to come, sneaked out on purpose, so that they would have a chance to kill me?" He sighed and said with a wry smile: "It's really hard to find a friend like you." Lu Xiaofeng also sighed suddenly, and said: "Your Shangguan Feiyan is really hard to find." Hua Manlou said: "Have you looked for her?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Even her younger sister can't find her, so what's the use of me looking for her?" On Huamanlou's peaceful face, there was a look of worry again. He obviously had a very unusual feeling for this girl who disappeared suddenly, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to. If this kind of emotion reaches a person's heart, it is like a pearl in the sand, and anyone can see it at a glance. Of course Lu Xiaofeng could see it, and immediately asked deliberately: "Have you met her sister?" Hua Manlou said: "No." Lu Xiaofeng said: "It seems that your luck is pretty good, at least better than mine." Hua Manlou said: "Is her sister a little troublemaker?" Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly: "Aren't you just a little troublemaker, he's just a little monster, not only can lie to make the dead alive, but he also has suspicions." Hua Manlou said: "Little girls also have suspicions?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Her suspicion is worse than that of an old woman. She even suspects that her sister has been murdered, and even suspects that you and King Jinpeng are the murderers." He originally wanted to make Hua Manlou happy, so he laughed too. But Huamanlou didn't even look happy. Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but said again: "Do you think her thinking is funny?" Hua Manlou said: "It's not funny." 陆小凤道：“上官飞燕也只不过是个小姑娘，最多也只不过会说谎而已，十八九岁的女孩子，谁不会说谎呢？别人为什么要谋害这么样一个女孩子，又有谁能下得了这种毒手？” 花满楼沉默着，过了很久，才缓缓道：“现在我只有一个希望。” 陆小凤道：“什么希望？” 花满楼微笑着，道：“我只希望他们今天晚上用的不是假酒。” 这句话本不该花满楼说的，他本来也不是个喜欢喝酒的人。 陆小凤看着他，忽然觉得他的笑容好像也变得有点神秘起来。 无论什么人，只要到了这里，好像都立刻会变得有点神秘，有点古怪。 陆小凤眨了眨眼，也故意装出像是很神秘的腔调，压低声音道：“我也有个希望。” 花满楼忍不住问道：“什么希望？” 陆小凤道：“我只希望他们今天晚上请我们吃的不是人肉包子，喝的不是迷魂酒！”
