Chapter 6 The first line of the sixth round

There are only two kinds of people who can sleep for more than twenty hours at a time—the blessed and the sick.Lu Xiaofeng was neither sick nor so lucky.Ouyang Qing had been in a coma for a day and a night.Seeing her face, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't sleep anymore. Thirteenth Aunt also seemed very worried, and said softly: "From yesterday to now, she only woke up once and only said one word!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "What's a word?" Thirteenth Aunt forced a smile, and said, "She asked me, have you ever eaten the butter-soaked snails she made? I want to ask you, is it good?"

Lu Xiaofeng's heart was shrinking.Seeing the plate of buttered snails still on the table, he suddenly felt that he really was a bastard who didn't know what to do. "It must be delicious." He also forced a smile: "I must eat it all." Thirteenth Aunt said: "This kind of food won't be crispy when it's cold, I'll fry it for you again." Lu Xiaofeng said: "No need, she fried it herself, I'll just eat it like this!" Thirteenth Aunt sighed and said, "You still have some conscience at last." Lu Xiaofeng sat down, ate two in one mouthful, and suddenly asked: "Where's Li Yanbei?"

Thirteenth Aunt said: "Let's go." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Where did you go?" "I don't know." Aunt Thirteen smiled more forcefully: "This is not the only family he has." Lu Xiaofeng had no choice but to plug his mouth with a snail soaked in butter.He suddenly discovered that under the noble makeup on Thirteenth Aunt's face, he didn't know how many tears were hidden?How sad? For a woman to spend twenty-nine nights alone in a month, the loneliness is unbearable. But she endured it because she couldn't help it.This is her destiny, and most women have the resilience and nature to accept their destiny.In this respect, they are indeed much stronger than men.He knew women like Aunt Thirteen, but he didn't know Ouyang Qing.

"There's something I shouldn't have asked." Lu Xiaofeng said hesitantly, "But I have to ask!" "you can ask." Lu Xiaofeng said: "You are Ouyang Qing's good friend, there will be no secrets between good friends, let alone..." Thirteenth Aunt continued for him: "Besides, we are women, and there are no secrets between women." Lu Xiaofeng forced a smile again, and said, "So you probably know a lot about her private affairs!" Aunt Thirteen said, "What exactly do you want to ask?" Lu Xiaofeng finally plucked up his courage and said: "I heard from Aunt Gongsun that she is still a virgin, is she really?"

Aunt Thirteen didn't even think about it, she immediately said: "She is." Lu Xiaofeng said: "She did that kind of thing, how could she still be a virgin?" Thirteenth Aunt sneered: "There are good women who do that kind of thing, she is not only a good woman, but also a very special one!" Lu Xiaofeng had no choice but to stuff his mouth with butter-soaked snails again.Now of course he can see that Thirteenth Aunt must have done this kind of thing before.So they are good friends. Lu Xiaofeng had already eaten up a plate of pickled snails in butter, as long as he left one, he would feel very sorry for his conscience.

Aunt Thirteen watched him finish eating, and suddenly asked: "Why do you care about this matter? Is she a virgin, does it have anything to do with others?" Lu Xiaofeng nodded, hesitantly said: "Four or five months ago, one day I met an honest monk on the road, and he said that he was with Ouyang the night before..." But he didn't finish this sentence.He suddenly fell down, and the personnel did not know. Aunt Thirteen actually watched him fall coldly, with a vicious smile on her face. Lu Xiaofeng really didn't understand women, let alone women like Thirteenth Aunt.He just thought he knew it well.

If a man thinks he understands women very well, no matter who he is, he will definitely be unlucky, even Lu Xiaofeng is the same. Oddly enough, some people seem to be born lucky, and even if they are unlucky, they don't last long.Lu Xiaofeng is obviously this kind of person.He didn't die.When I woke up, I found that not only were my limbs and facial features intact, but I was also lying on a very comfortable and clean bed. The room is also very clean, full of the aroma of chrysanthemum and osmanthus.A lamp was lit on the table, and the moonlight outside the window was like water. There was a man standing quietly in front of the window, facing the autumn moon outside the window, dressed in white clothes like snow.

"Ximen Chuuxue!" How could Ximen Chuuxue, who couldn't find her through iron shoes, suddenly appear here? Lu Xiaofeng jumped up.He could still jump up, but his legs were still a little soft, and his strength had not fully recovered. "My boy, where did you come from?" Lu Xiaofeng stood on the ground barefoot and shouted, "Where have you been hiding these days?" Ximen Chuuxue said coldly: "A person shouldn't talk like that to his savior!" "Savior?" Lu Xiaofeng called again: "You are my savior?" "If it wasn't for me, your people would have been burnt to ashes just like Li Yanbei!"

Lu Xiaofeng lost his voice: "Li Yanbei is dead?" Ximen Chuixue said: "His luck is not as good as yours, you seem to be born with a particularly good luck." He finally turned his head and stared at Lu Xiaofeng.His face was still pale and indifferent, and his voice was still so cold, but there was already a kind of warmth in his eyes, a kind of warmth that can only be found in the eyes of a long-lost friend. Lu Xiaofeng was also staring at him: "It seems that your luck is not bad recently." Ximen Chuixue said: "It seems that Li Yanbei is the only one who has really bad luck."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Do you know how he died?" Ximen Chuuxue nodded, and said, "But I don't know when you started trusting that kind of woman!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "What kind of woman?" He lay down again because he suddenly felt uncomfortable in his stomach: "A woman like Ouyang Qing?" Ximen Chuixue said, "It's not Ouyang Qing." Lu Xiaofeng said: "It's not her? It's Thirteenth Aunt?" Ximen Chuixue said: "Although the snails soaked in butter were made by Ouyang Qing, it was Aunt Thirteen who poisoned them!"

He looked at Lu Xiaofeng with a smile in his eyes: "Does this news make you feel better?" Lu Xiaofeng did feel a lot more comfortable, but he couldn't help feeling strange: "When did you start to understand this kind of relationship between a man and a woman?" Ximen Chuuxue did not answer this sentence, but turned around again to look at the moonlight outside the window. The moonlight is as gentle as water, and it is already the night of September 14th. Lu Xiaofeng thought deeply, and said: "I must have slept for a long time!" Ximen Chuixue said: "Aunt Thirteen is a woman who is very good at drugs, and the drugs she put in the buttered snails are not heavy!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "She knows that if the beating is heavy, I will notice." Ximen Chuixue said: "She also knows that you will definitely eat that plate of buttered snails." Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly.Of course, Thirteenth Aunt knew more about the relationship between men and women. "But how did you know these things?" Lu Xiaofeng asked, "How did you happen to save me?" Ximen Chuixue said: "When you fell down, I was watching from the window." Lu Xiaofeng said: "You just watch me fall?" Ximen Chuixue said: "I didn't know that you would fall down, and I didn't know that those buttered snails are poisonous!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "You came to find me?" Ximen Chuixue said: "But I don't want others to see me. I originally wanted to wait until Thirteenth Aunt left before going in, but as soon as you fell down, she pulled out the knife." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Li Yanbei also died by that knife?" Ximen Fuxue nodded. Lu Xiaofeng said: "You asked her? Did she tell the truth?" Ximen Chuuxue said coldly: "In front of me, very few people dare not tell the truth." Everyone knows that when Ximen Chuuxueruo said that he was going to kill someone, it was definitely not a lie.As soon as his hand grasped the hilt of the sword, Thirteenth Aunt told the truth. Lu Xiaofeng sighed, and said with a wry smile: "I really don't see how a woman like her can be really capable of killing someone!" Ximen Chuuxue said: "Why didn't you ask me why she wanted to kill me!" Lu Xiaofeng sighed: "I know what she is for, I still remember what she said." Ximen Chuixue said, "What are you talking about?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Li Yanbei's woman is not the only one, she is a woman unwilling to be lonely, she can't go on with this kind of life, but she has no way to escape, so I can only kill Li Yanbei." He said with a wry smile : "She was afraid that I would investigate Li Yanbei's whereabouts, that's why she murdered me." Ximen Chuuxue said: "You forgot one thing!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "What's the matter?" Ximen Chuuxue said: "A bank note of 1.95 million taels." He sneered, and said again: "Without this bank note, she would not have committed murder, nor would she dare!" But if a woman like her had 1.95 million taels of silver, there would be no place in the world she could not go to, and there would be nothing she would not dare to do. "After she killed you, she was going to take the bank note and leave. She even packed the package." Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly: "Of course a person doesn't have to carry a big burden after he has 1.95 million taels of silver." Ximen Chuixue said: "Why don't you ask me about her whereabouts?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "I still want to ask?" Meeting this kind of person, Ximen Chuuxue's sword has never survived. "You're thinking wrong." Ximen Chuuxue said flatly, "I didn't kill her." Lu Xiaofeng raised his head in surprise: "You didn't kill her? Why?" Ximen Chuuxue didn't answer, and there was no need to answer. Lu Xiaofeng himself already knew the answer: "You seem to have changed...and a lot!" He stared at Ximen Chuuxue with a smile in his eyes: "How did you change? To change you It's not easy." "But you haven't changed." Ximen Chuuxue said coldly: "You don't ask what you should ask, but you ask what you shouldn't ask!" Lu Xiaofeng smiled, he had to admit: "I do have something to ask you." "You'd better ask one by one." "Where's Ouyang Qing?" "Here it is, and someone is with me." "Is it Miss Sun?" "No." The warm and happy expression appeared in Ximen Chuuxue's eyes again: "It's Mrs. Ximen." Lu Xiaofeng was overjoyed: "Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations..." He said congratulations seven or eight times in succession, he was really happy for Ximen Chuuxue and Sun Xiuqing.The happiness of friends is always like your own happiness. ——Lu Xiaofeng is really a lovely person. Ximen Chuuxue couldn't help laughing too.He seldom smiles, but when he smiles, it's like a spring breeze blowing across the earth. "You never thought I'd get married?" "I really can't think of it." Lu Xiaofeng was still laughing: "I can't even imagine it in my dreams." But he has already figured out that this must be the reason why Ximen Chuuxue changed. Ximen Chuuxue smiled and said, "What about you? When are you going to start a family?" Lu Xiaofeng's smile immediately cast a shadow - it was the shadow of Xue Bing, and also the shadow of Ouyang Qing. He immediately changed the subject: "How did you go there to find me?" "I know that you are Li Yanbei's friend, and I also know that he has a few trusted people under his command!" "They dare not lie in front of you?" "Never dare!" "Don't dare to reveal your whereabouts?" "I was the one who went to find them." Ximen Chuixue said, "No one knows that I live here." This is exactly what Lu Xiaofeng wants to ask the most: "What is this place?" Ximen Chuixue said, "Why don't you go out and have a look?" Passing through the elegant garden, there is a pastry shop in front of it, with a four-bay facade, with extremely delicate patterns carved on the door, and three big characters written on the gold signboard: "Hefangzhai".Lu Xiaofeng looked at it twice and then came back, still smiling when he came back. "This is a very old pastry shop, but the people who use it are all my former family members." Ximen Chuuxue said with a smile, "Did you ever think that I would be the owner of the pastry shop?" "No." "Have you ever seen people selling cakes in the world?" "No." Ximen Chuuxue smiled and said: "So even if you search all over Nine City, you still can't find me!" Lu Xiaofeng admitted: "Even if I break my head, I can't find it." Ximen Chuixue said: "You already know why I did this?" Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "I know, so I not only want to drink your wedding wine, but also wait to eat your red eggs!" There was a shadow in Ximen Chuuxue's smile, after a long silence, he said slowly: "I went to you because I have something I want you to do for me." Why did he change the subject?Doesn't he dare to think too far?Is he afraid that he won't be able to wait until the day he eats red eggs? Lu Xiaofeng said: "No matter what you want me to do, just say, I owe you." "I want you to accompany me to the Forbidden City tomorrow." Ximen Chuuxue clenched his hands, "If I fail, I want you to bring my body back." Lu Xiaofeng smiled forcedly, and said: "Even if you lose, you don't necessarily have to die." Ximen Chuixue said: "If you lose the battle, you can only die!" The expression on his face became cold and proud again. He can accept death, but he cannot accept failure!Lu Xiaofeng hesitated, he didn't want to tell Ye Gucheng's secret in front of Ximen Chuuxue, Ye Gucheng was also his friend.But even if he doesn't say it, this fact will not change, Ximen Chuuxue will know sooner or later. "You will never lose!" he finally said. "why?" "Because Ye Gucheng's injuries are serious." Ximen Chuuxue said with emotion: "But I heard that he severely injured Tang Tianrong in Chunhua Building yesterday." Lu Xiaofeng sighed: "Tang Tianrong is not Ximen Chuuxue." Ximen Chuixue said, "Is it true that he was injured?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes." Ximen Chuuxue's expression changed.Hearing that his only opponent has been seriously injured, if it were someone else, he would definitely feel lucky and happy.But Ximen Chuuxue is not someone else! Not only did his face change, but he also became miserable: "If it wasn't for me, we would have fought each other on August 15th, and I might have died by his sword, but now..." "And now he must die?" Ximen Chuuxue nodded. Lu Xiaofeng said: "You have to kill him?" Ximen Chuuxue said sadly: "If I don't kill him, he must die!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "But..." Ximen Chuuxue interrupted him, saying: "You may not understand people like us, we can die, but we cannot be defeated!" Lu Xiaofeng finally couldn't hold back a long sigh.It's not that he doesn't understand them, he already knows that they are the same kind of people. A kind of person that you may not like, but you can't help but admire! A person who is close to "God". Whether it's swordsmanship, chess or other arts, it must be people like them who can really reach the pinnacle.Because art is something that requires a person to dedicate his entire life. "But you have changed now!" Lu Xiaofeng said, "I always thought you were not a human, but a kind of half-crazy god, but now you have human nature." "Maybe I have indeed changed, so if Ye Gucheng hadn't been injured, I probably wouldn't be his opponent." Ximen Chuuxue's expression became more serious: "But now he has no chance of defeating me, which is really unfair." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Then you want to..." Ximen Chuixue said: "I want to find him." Lu Xiaofeng said: "So what if we find him?" Ximen Chuuxue sneered, "Do you think I can only kill people?" Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered that Ximen Chuuxue had also been injured by Tangmen's hidden poison weapon.But Ximen Chuuxue is still alive. "I'll take you there." Lu Xiaofeng jumped up again, and said, "If there is anyone in this world who can heal Ye Gucheng's wounds, that person must be you!" The wilderness, the cold moon.The moon is full.The deserted moonlight shone on the gloomy courtyard, and the lamps were already lit in the meditation room. "Will City Lord Baiyun live in this kind of place?" "He is just like you, he doesn't want others to find him!" "How did you find it?" "The lay monk's surname is Sheng, and his name is Shengtong." "He brought you here?" "I have done good deeds and saved people." Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "After you save someone, you never know when he will repay you." Although this is not the greatest joy of saving people, at least it is One of the fun. "Brother Ye, it's me." He knocked on the door: "Lu Xiaofeng." no respond.Even if Ye Gucheng fell asleep, he would never sleep so deeply—is there no one in the room? Lu Xiaofeng frowned, Ximen Chuuxue had already broken in. There are people in the house, dead people!A man strangled to death! It wasn't Ye Gucheng who died. "This man is Shengtong." "Who killed him? Why did he kill him?" "His benefactor must be more than me." Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly, "He brought someone else, but Ye Gucheng had already left. That person thought he had leaked the news, so he killed him to vent his anger!" This explanation is not only reasonable, but also It is almost the only explanation. Lu Xiaofeng sighed again, and said, "This is the second person I've seen to be strangled to death!" Ximen Chuuxue asked, "Who is the first one?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Aunt Gongsun." Ximen Chuixue asked, "Did they die at the hands of the same person?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Very likely." Although the one who strangled Shengtong was not the red ribbon, the technique used was very similar. Ximen Chuixue said: "What does Aunt Gongsun have to do with this matter?" Lu Xiaofeng smiled bitterly: "There should be, but I haven't figured it out yet, I haven't found that thread yet!" Ximen Chuixue said, "What line?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "A thread that can connect these things together." Ximen Chuixue said, "What do you know?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Ye Gucheng was injured only because someone plotted against him, otherwise Tang Tianyi wouldn't be able to make a move." Ximen Chuixue said: "Who plotted against him?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "He is a person who can play tricks on snakes." Ximen Chuixue said: "The poison in Ouyang's love is also snake venom." Lu Xiaofeng said: "This person not only hurt Ye Gucheng and Ouyang Qing, but also killed Master Sun, he was also the one who strangled Shengtong and Aunt Gongsun to death!" Ximen Chuuxue said, "Are you sure?" Lu Xiaofeng nodded, and said: "Because I have confirmed that the one who strangled Aunt Gongsun was the one who played bamboo and snakes. He originally wanted to divert my target and put the blame on Aunt Gongsun." Ximen Chuixue said: "There seems to be no relationship between the five people you mentioned." Lu Xiaofeng said: "That's why I can't figure out, why this person wants to kill them!" Ximen Chuixue said, "Have you found anyone suspicious?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "There is only one suspicious person." Ximen Chuixue asked, "Who?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Monk honest!" An honest monk would plot against others?Who would believe such a thing? Lu Xiaofeng said: "I also know that no one will believe my words, but he is indeed the most suspicious!" Ximen Chuixue said, "When did you start to doubt him?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "It started with one sentence." Ximen Chuixue asked, "What's a word?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Ouyang Qing is a virgin." Ximen Chuixue said: "Whether Ouyang Qing is a virgin or not, what does it have to do with the honest monk?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes." Ximen Chuuxue didn't understand, and no one would understand the relationship between them. Lu Xiaofeng said: "I went to find Mr. Sun because of Princess Danfeng. Mr. Sun happened to be in Ouyang Qing's brothel that day, and I happened to meet an honest monk on the way." Ximen Chuuxue still couldn't figure it out. Lu Xiaofeng said: "I just asked him, where are you from? Where are you going?" Ximen Chuixue said, "What did he say?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "He said he came from Ouyang Qing's bed!" Ximen Chuixue said: "But Ouyang Qing is a virgin." Lu Xiaofeng said: "It can be seen from this that what the honest monk said is not completely honest." Ximen Chuixue said: "This does not prove that he killed someone!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Everyone has a reason to lie, why is he lying?" Ximen Chuixue said: "You think that he must have done something shameful that night. When you asked him, he had no choice but to make up a lie to evade it." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Of course he never thought that I would recognize Ouyang Qing!" Ximen Chuixue said: "Why doesn't he talk about others, but why does he want to talk about Ouyang Qing?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Because Ouyang Qing was originally his fellow!" Ximen Chuuxue didn't understand again. Lu Xiaofeng said: "After I broke down the Tsing Yi Building, I discovered that there is a secret organization called 'Red Shoes' in Jianghu, and the Tsing Yi Building seems to be controlled by them." Ximen Chuuxue said: "The one who controls them is also a secret organization?" Lu Xiaofeng nodded, and said: "The Tsing Yi Building is full of men, and the red shoes are full of women. In this secret organization, it is very likely that all of them are monks, and they are probably called White Socks!" Ximen Chuixue said: "Do you think the leader of this organization is the honest monk?" Lu Xiaofeng nodded again, and said: "I seldom see him, but when I was in the Tsing Yi Building, he suddenly appeared. I went to look for the red shoes, and he appeared again. There is absolutely no such coincidence in the world." Ximen Chuixue said: "But he didn't stop you from going to the Tsing Yi Building, nor did he stop you from looking for the red shoes!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Because he knew that I was sure at that time, even if he stopped it, he couldn't stop it." Ximen Chuuxue also admitted that no matter who wants to stop Lu Xiaofeng's actions, it will be very difficult. Lu Xiaofeng sneered, and said again: "All monks wear white socks, he said he wore meat socks, I said meat socks are also white, he said his flesh is not white." Ximen Chuixue said: "His flesh is not white at all!" Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "If there is mud on the white socks, are they still not white socks?" "Yes." Ximen Chuuxue could only admit, "So you think he killed Aunt Gongsun and Ouyang Qing just to silence them?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Because I not only recognized them, but also became their friend, he was afraid that they would reveal his secret." Ximen Chuixue said: "Master Sun was also in Ouyang Qing's brothel that night." Lu Xiaofeng said: "And Master Sun knows too many things." —Too many secrets a man knows, and too little hope of longevity. Ximen Chuuxue pondered, and said: "Anyway, this is just your speculation, and you have no evidence." Lu Xiaofeng said: "My guesses are seldom wrong!" Ximen Chuixue said: "So you have found a thread that connects the deaths of Master Sun, Ouyang Qing, and Aunt Gongsun?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Not bad." Ximen Chuixue said: "Then what about Ye Gucheng? Why did the honest monk plot against Ye Gucheng?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Because he wants to take this opportunity to expand his power to the capital." Ximen Chuuxue didn't understand again. Lu Xiaofeng said: "He knows that both Li Yanbei and Du Tongxuan have placed a heavy bet on you, because these two also want to take this opportunity to take over the other's territory." Ximen Chuixue said: "Li Yanbei bet that I win?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "So he managed to buy out Li Yanbei's bet." Ximen Chuuxue asked, "Bought with that bank note?" Lu Xiaofeng nodded, and said: "The person who came forward is also a monk, named Gu Qingfeng." Ximen Chuixue said: "Now he thinks that Ye Gucheng will definitely lose, and Du Tongxuan has lost nothing." Lu Xiaofeng said: "So he has wiped out all the two major forces in the capital at once, and without any effort." Ximen Chuuxue sighed, and said, "Such a complicated and ingenious plan, I'm afraid only the two of you can come up with it." Lu Xiaofeng said: "I didn't come up with this plan, it was him!" Ximen Chuuxue said coldly: "But these conjectures are all made by you. Are you taller than him?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Do you think my speculation is not completely correct?" Ximen Chuixue said, "I didn't say that." Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly: "But you must be thinking that way, I can see it." He also sighed suddenly, and said: "And I'm thinking the same way myself!" Ximen Chuixue said: "You yourself feel that these speculations are not completely reasonable?" Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly: "That's why I said, I haven't found that line yet!" Ximen Chuixue said: "Have you already found a line?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "This line is not good enough." Of course they didn't talk standing in the meditation room.No one wants to stay in a dilapidated and gloomy house with a dead person for so long.The cold wind in the suburbs can make people's minds clear and their thoughts sharp.They walked slowly along a path under the starry sky in September. The autumn wind was blowing the yellow grass beside the road, and the land was desolate and silent.They have come a long way. "This line still can't connect everything completely." Lu Xiaofeng said again: "There is also a person who died very strangely." "Who?" "Zhang Yingfeng." Ximen Chuuxue knew this person. "Three Ying and Four Talents" were originally from the same school, Yan Renying's senior brother, that is, Sun Xiuqing's senior brother.Sun Xiuqing is now Mrs. Ximen, and Ximen Chuuxue has to care about Zhang Yingfeng's affairs. "Is he dead?" "He died yesterday." Lu Xiaofeng repeated again: "It's a strange death." "Who killed him?" "It should have been you." "Should it be me?" Ximen Chuuxue frowned: "Should I kill him?" Lu Xiaofeng nodded and said: "Because he came to the capital this time to take revenge on you!" Ximen Chuuxue said coldly: "So I have a reason to kill him." Lu Xiaofeng said: "His fatal wound was on his throat, only a little blood." Of course Ximen Chuuxue understood what this meant.Only an extremely sharp, extremely terrifying, and extremely fast sword can cause this kind of injury, and a single sword is fatal. Except for Ximen Chuuxue, who has such a fast sword? Lu Xiaofeng sighed, and said: "Unfortunately, I now know that the person who killed him was not you!" "Now you know who it is?" "There are two people who are most suspected." Lu Xiaofeng said, "One eunuch and one pockmark." "It's quite rare to be able to die at the hands of these two people." Ximen Chuuxue was not without a sense of humor. "It's a pity that Zhang Yingfeng didn't die at their hands." Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly again: "First, I can't think of any reason for them to kill Zhang Yingfeng. Second, they are not Zhang Yingfeng's opponents at all." "So you think it should be the murderer, but it's not the murderer!" "That's why I have a headache." "Who is the murderer?" "I also want to find out now." Lu Xiaofeng said, "I always think that Zhang Yingfeng's death has something to do with this matter!" "why?" "Because eunuchs can also be regarded as monks, they also wear white socks." Ximen Chuuxue pondered, and suddenly asked: "Is it Yan Renying who collected Zhang Yingfeng's body?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Not bad." Ximen Chuixue asked, "Where is Yan Renying?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "You want to find him?" Ximen Chuixue said: "I want to see the fatal wound on Zhang Yingfeng's throat, maybe I can see whose sword it is!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "I've already looked at it, and looked very carefully." Ximen Chuuxue said coldly: "I know your martial arts are very good, and your eyesight is also very good, but when it comes to swords, you don't know much more than an old woman." Lu Xiaofeng could only smile wryly.He couldn't argue, no one could argue about the sword in front of Ximen Chuuxue. "You must go, and I will take you there." He smiled wryly, "It's just that you'd better be careful." "why?" "Yan Renying has found someone to deal with you. Among them are two tantric lamas, and the other two are said to be masters of a mysterious sword sect on the water peak of the Virgin Mary in the frontier." Ximen Chuixue said coldly: "As long as you are a swordsman, you should be careful when you meet me." Lu Xiaofeng smiled: "So it's them who should be careful, not you." Ximen Chuixue said: "Absolutely not." Lu Xiaofeng said: "What about those two lamas?" Ximen Chuixue said, "The lama is yours." The problem of monks and Taoists was already enough for Lu Xiaofeng to worry about, and now the lama has also belonged to him. Lu Xiaofeng murmured: "Some people are looking for fame, some are looking for profit, what am I looking for?" Ximen Chuixue said, "Trouble." Lu Xiaofeng said: "It's not bad at all. I searched and searched, but all I found were troubles." Ximen Chuixue said, "Where are you going to find it now?" Lu Xiaofeng said: "Quanfu Inn." Quanfu Inn is located on Gulou East Street. It is said to be the oldest and most stylish inn in the capital.When they arrived, it was late at night, but Yan Renying and the others were not there. "Young Master Yan is going to bury his senior brother." The clerk in the store said, "I left with those two master lamas, not long ago!" "Where did you go?" "Tianliang Altar." Tianliang Altar is outside Andingmen.The Son of Heaven values ​​the people, and the people are based on farming and mulberry. Therefore, the Son of Heaven worships the first farmers in the southern suburbs, and the Queen sacrifices the first Liang to the northern suburbs. "Why did they bury Zhang Yingfeng in Tianliang Altar?" "Because this Tianliang altar has been abandoned and has become a cremation place for lamas." "cremation?" "For herdsmen outside the border, their dead bodies are cremated by lamas, and the custom has not changed after entering the customs." Lu Xiaofeng said: "Even the grass used for cremation is specially transported from outside the customs on camels." "Is this grass special?" "It's really special. Not only is it very soft, but it's still green after drying." "What is the use of this grass?" "Use it as a cushion in the box!" "What box?" "A box for the dead." Lu Xiaofeng said, "Before the dead are cremated, they must be put in the box." "why?" "Because lamas want money, those who don't have money have to wait." Lu Xiaofeng said, "I went to see it once, and the hall was almost full of these two-foot-wide and three-foot-high boxes." Ximen Chuixue said: "The box is only two feet wide and three feet high?" Lu Xiaofeng nodded, the expression on his face looked like he was about to vomit: "So the dead can neither stand nor lie down, they can only squat in the box." Ximen Chuuxue couldn't help but frowned. Lu Xiaofeng said again: "Not only are there many such boxes in the hall, but they are also hung with yellow cloth bags." "What's in the bag?" "The ashes of the dead." Lu Xiaofeng said, "They transport the ashes back once a year, and before transporting them away, they hang them in the hall." "We must not let them put Zhang Yingfeng in a cloth bag." "So if you want to go, you have to go quickly."
