Chapter 23 Deleted chapters of "Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens"
Chapter 15 "Saving People with Justice: He suddenly realized that he had fallen into a net. A net woven by forty-nine people and thirty-seven knives." Xue Xingguo continued the article later, but this time Duan Gulong's own writing has been deleted. In order to restore the original work, this chapter is specially added for readers.
Continuing from Chapter 15: Rescuing People through Justice
The old fox looked at him with a wry smile, and said, "They came all the way from afar just to catch one person." "
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Who is it?"
The old fox said: "You."
Lu Xiaofeng finally knew what he was now.
──I'm a dumb bird who throws itself into a trap.
The men in black and the military officers have all retreated.The pools of blood on the windowsill and on the ground have been washed away.
Their efficiency in doing this kind of thing is like a skilled cook washing cabbage.
Of course it wasn't real blood, because there was no smell of blood.
──Why didn't I notice this?Is it because I've always avoided smelling blood?
he can not.His hands could not move at all, and he had already had three acupoints tapped.
There were only three left in the room, and the other two were watching him.
There was more or less shame in the eyes of the two of them. It is not an honor to betray a friend after all.
The first one to speak was Eagle Eye Seventh.He asked: "You can't think of it?"
Lu Xiaofeng really couldn't think of it.
Eagle-eyed old seven said: "If it were me, I wouldn't have thought of it, and I would be fooled."
Lu Xiaofeng admitted that this is really a very clever trap.
Hawkeye Old Seven said: "This is not only a very clever trap, but also a very good play, everyone acted very realistically."
The old fox sighed, and said: "I am an old fox, but this trap was not made by the old fox."
Hawkeye Old Seven said: "It's not me either."
Lu Xiaofeng really wanted to keep his mouth shut, but unfortunately he could still move his mouth and his tongue.
He couldn't complain and asked, "Who are you?"
Eagle-eyed Seventh didn't answer, neither did Old Fox, but someone in the inner room said it for him and them: "It's me."
The voice was very gentle and polite, but it had a kind of compelling arrogance.
Lu Xiaofeng only listened to the voice, but didn't see this person, he hadn't come out yet.
But Lu Xiaofeng already knew who this person was.
──The ones in black are the palace guards, and so are the ones in the clothes of a military officer.
──There is only one person who can dispatch them and ask them to act for him.
Lu Xiaofeng said: "It is said that the most honorable and noble person in the royal family is the King of Taiping, Lefugui, besides today's emperor."
Hawkeye Old Seven said: "Yes."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "It is said that this prince has already established a son."
Hawkeye Old Seven said: "Yes."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "It is said that although this young prince is young, he is wise and promising, and is very respected."
Hawkeye Old Seven said: "Yes."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Is he already here now?"
Eagle-eyed Seventh didn't speak, neither did Old Fox, and someone in the inner room answered for them: "Yes."
This time the person finally walked out.
A person is very gentle and polite, but he has a compelling arrogance. ──People are always full of contradictions, forever.
Lu Xiaofeng's attention was not completely focused on the little prince, because the military officer who had killed several people in a flash just now also came out.
The little prince said: "Haven't you seen it?"
Lu Xiaofeng shook his head.
The little prince said: "He knows that you are Lu Xiaofeng."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "I know him too."
The little prince said: "Oh?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "At least I know he has a strange knife."
The little prince smiled and said, "Do you want to see his knife?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Think."
The little prince waved his hand, and the knife was out of its sheath.
The short knife is two feet seven inches long, the blade is one foot five inches, and the handle is one foot three inches.With one stab, the blade retracted immediately.
The little prince said: "No matter who "die" by this kind of knife, they will be resurrected soon."
What about blood?
Of course that is easier, as long as you prepare a blood bag on your body, you can dye your clothes red with blood at any time.
The little prince said: "Apart from this knife, what else do you know about him?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "I also know that he himself is a bastard, the biggest skill in his life is to betray his friends."
The little prince said, "Are you his friend?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Originally it is."
The little prince said, "What about now?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Now I just want to chop off his head and use it as a chamber pot."
The little prince turned his head back with a smile, looked at the military officer, and said: "It seems that he still recognized you after all."
The military officer smiled and said, "It's a pity that every time he recognizes me, he is already one step late."
This is by no means a real seventh-rank military officer, but of course the greatest thief in the world for three hundred years, Sikong Zhaixing.
The broken windows had been replaced with new ones in a few moments, and the blood had been swept away.
The little prince has always been a clean person, and it is not easy for him to stay here for a while.He has lived here for several days.
"I'm waiting for you." He looked at Lu Xiaofeng: "Everyone in this place is waiting for you."
Lu Xiaofeng didn't respond.
The little prince said: "I also know that several of these people are your friends. Although they betrayed you this time, you can't blame them."
Lu Xiaofeng didn't blame others, he only blamed himself.
The young prince's sharp eyes seemed to have seen through this person, and he suddenly changed the subject, saying: "In the middle of last month, two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, a robbery case occurred in Jianghu."
Lu Xiaofeng still didn't respond.This is not unusual, there are robbery cases every day in the Jianghu.The little prince said: "But this time it's different."
The little prince's voice was more slow and deep: "This is the biggest robbery case in the history of Jianghu, and it is also the most mysterious one."
Lu Xiaofeng had already started listening.The little prince said: "In this robbery case, almost all the experts in the bodyguard industry were wiped out, and the amount of bodyguard money lost is unprecedented."
He sighed softly, and continued: "Unfortunately, I happen to be the agent of this escort."
──Agent?What is an agent?
The little prince explained: "Because this bodyguard money is not mine, and the imperial court's army, I just ordered the imperial court to act as an agent, and entrusted my colleagues in the bodyguard industry to send the money to the capital."
Lu Xiaofeng continued to listen.The little prince said: "The bodyguards were stolen, so all the bodyguards who escorted them disappeared overnight, and the only survivor died suddenly two days later."
He glanced at the eagle-eyed old seventh, and added: "He died violently in the secret room of the Twelve-Series Wu chief executive."
Hawkeye Lao Qi lowered his head, with blue veins protruding from his forehead.
For him, this incident was not only a fatal blow, but also a humiliation that could never be washed away.
The little prince said: "After the incident happened, I have extended the deadline to solve the case twice, but they haven't even found any clues yet."
He stared at Lu Xiaofeng, and slowly continued: "Who is the perpetrator? With your extensive contacts in the Jianghu, can you come up with a clue?"
Lu Xiaofeng kept his mouth shut.
The little prince smiled lightly, and said: "I also know that you must not be able to figure it out, but luckily I have a little bit."
He beckoned, and someone next to him immediately brought over a file: "This is all information about you, some of which you may not even remember clearly. But those are not important, only a few points are important, I might as well read it again, and you listen to yourself."
Lu Xiaofeng, twenty-nine years old, unmarried.Both parents died, his life experience is unknown, and the origin of martial arts is also unknown.
He debuted at the age of fourteen and became famous at the age of seventeen. He wandered the world, made his home all over the world, and had no fixed place to live.
Both lightness kung fu and palm technique can be ranked among the top ten masters in the Jianghu, and the one-finger consonance is even more unique in the world.The clothes are gorgeous, the diet is exquisite, the monthly expenses are huge, but there is no normal income.
Good wine, very heavy drinker.Good to gamble, not very good.She is a good woman, and has at least 500 women in her past, and there are still 30 people who still keep in touch with her, including chivalrous and famous prostitutes, young ladies, young nuns, bosses...
After reading this, there is no further reading.Lu Xiaofeng listened quietly all the time, as if listening to someone else's story.
The little prince covered the file and said: "This is you, the most mysterious and extravagant person in the world, Lu Xiaofeng."
Lu Xiaofeng had no objection, he really couldn't refute these things.
The little prince said: "Now I only have two questions to ask you. Your annual expenses are at least 50,000 taels. Where does this money come from?"
His gaze was sharper and his expression more serious: "What you like are friends and excitement, luxury and enjoyment. Why do you want to go out to sea alone at this time?"
Lu Xiaofeng was silent.
The little prince said: "On the eve of the robbery, a group of craftsmen who made Buddha statues and wooden fish happened to pass by. The boat you were on happened to have such a batch of goods."
He stared at Lu Xiaofeng: "What do you have to say about this?"
Lu Xiaofeng didn't speak.
The little prince said coldly: "There are at least 5,000 people in Jianghu who have been implicated by this incident. The family members of Eagle Eye Seventh and Xiong Tianjian have all been detained now. Don't you even have a word?"
Lu Xiaofeng suddenly said, "Of course."
The little prince said, "Why didn't you say it?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "If you buy me a few drinks first, and then ask me politely, now I have said at least 3,600 sentences."
The little prince said: "Is it too late for me to buy you a drink?"
Lu Xiaofeng smiled: "As long as someone invites me to drink, it will never be too late."
One glass after another.Lu Xiaofeng drank more and faster than usual.He wanted to get drunk, and only when he was drunk could he tell the truth in front of a stranger.
Now is the time to tell the truth.
He understood the seriousness of this matter, and every word he said must convince this person.
"I like women, eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling.
Because I am afraid.My greatest fear is loneliness, especially after a job is done, the unbearable loneliness that throws me into the arms of any woman who can spend the night.
Any woman will do as long as she is not alone.
But this kind of life for too long is not only tiring, it is almost maddening.
So I decided to change my life, at least I gotta give it a try.So I decided to go to sea. "
The little prince listened quietly, without expressing any opinion at all.
Lu Xiaofeng continued: "I want to choose the fastest boat to go out to sea, so I found the old fox. At that time, I didn't know what the boat would be carrying. I didn't find the Buddha statue and wooden fish on the boat until before I died."
Then he knew that there must be many secrets in this matter that he didn't know, but he didn't hide anything from what he knew.
I will never allow innocent people to be victimized. He believes that sooner or later, the truth will come to light.While speaking, he kept paying attention to the expression of the little prince.The little prince had no expression on his face.
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Although these things seem absurd, every sentence is true."
The little prince suddenly said: "I believe it."
Lu Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief.
The little prince said: "I believe almost everything you say, because I always trust others easily, so..."
There was obviously something more in his words, so Lu Xiaofeng immediately asked: "So what?"
The little prince said lightly: "So no matter how much I believe it, it's useless."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "It's useless? Who needs to believe it to be useful?"
The little prince said: "Although I am stupid, I have a very smart sister."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled bitterly and said, "Is your sister a woman?" This question was not only funny, but also stupid, only he could understand what he meant.
──It is far more difficult for women to believe the truth than to listen to lies.Because women usually have their own logic for judging between truth and lies.
Lu Xiaofeng's heart sank.
He only hoped that this woman was really as wise and intelligent as the young prince.
Behind it was a small door with a beaded curtain hanging down.The little prince is already giving orders.
"Go ask the second princess, what do you think of what this person said?" Immediately someone said it, and a figure flickered behind the bead curtain, and the person who entered quickly came out again.
"The second princess said that she only believed one thing this man said."
"Which sentence?"
"He likes women, any kind of woman."
The little prince turned his head, stared at Lu Xiaofeng, and said, "Have you heard what she said?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "But you..."
The little prince said: "What she said is what I said."
Lu Xiaofeng was not in a hurry.
He is rarely really in a hurry, but now his nose seems to be a little crooked.
The little prince suddenly asked again: "Are there two girls who came back on the same boat as you?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes."
The little prince asked, "Can they prove your words?"
Lu Xiaofeng lifted his spirits and said, "Of course."
The little prince beckoned again, a figure flickered behind the bead curtain, and the two walked out slowly.
Lu Xiaofeng's eyes immediately lit up.
The little prince said: "These two girls, did they come back with you on the same boat?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes."
Standing in front of him were Shaman and Xiaoyu—one was his lover and the other was his benefactor. Of course they could confirm his words.
The little prince was already asking them: "Did you hear what he said just now?"
Sharman nodded.
Xiaoyu said: "We can hear every word very clearly."
The little prince said: "Is what he said true or false?"
Xiaoyu said: "Only one sentence is true."
The little prince said: "Which sentence?"
Xiaoyu said: "He likes all kinds of women, he wants all kinds of women."
Lu Xiaofeng was dumbfounded.He was already almost drunk, but now he is very sober and stupid.
The wine he just drank turned into cold sweat, and he finally understood what was going on.
Even fools sometimes understand things.Understand the stupid things he did.
It's a pity that when he understood these things, it was already too late. When he understood these things, he had already become a fool.
The little prince was still asking, "Aren't you from that island?"
"no."
"Have you ever heard of such an island?"
"No."
"I haven't even heard it in my dreams." This sentence was actually said by Sharman.
The little prince turned his head again and stared at Lu Xiaofeng: "What else do you have to say?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "One more thing."
The little prince said, "Say it."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "I originally thought I was a pig."
The little prince said, "What about now?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Now I know that I am not a pig, but a sheep."
The little prince said: "What sheep?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Little lamb."
The little prince said: "It doesn't look like it."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly: "But I am indeed, a little lamb to scapegoat."
Of course Xiaoyu is not that capable of rescuing him, and of course there are other masterminds among them.This man wanted Xiaoyu to save him, just because he wanted to find a scapegoat.
Now, who else believes that Lu Xiaofeng was not responsible for that huge case?
Maybe only Lu Xiaofeng himself.
The little prince stared at him and said, "You really only have this sentence to say?"
Lu Xiaofeng responded: "Yes."
The little prince said: "It's a pity that this sentence is not what I want to hear."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Which sentence is it?"
The little prince said: "Where are the stolen goods?"
The underground cave is damp and dark, just like most underground caves in the world, it is by no means a comfortable place to lie down and sleep.
Lu Xiaofeng neither wanted to sleep nor lie here, but unfortunately he had no choice at all.
The loot is there, on a mysterious, unknown island.
Where is the island?In that boundless ocean, a certain mysterious place.
Lu Xiaofeng sighed, even he himself was not satisfied with this answer, so how could others believe it.
What is going on here?How can we get out of this predicament?
One by one why can't I calm down and think about it?
-Because I was cheated by a lover, betrayed by a friend, and locked up in this damn cellar.
He wasn't comforting himself, even he couldn't comfort himself now.
He just wanted to find a reason to explain himself, to explain his stupidity.
Because he thought about it, it seemed that there was only one dead end.
At this moment, he smelled a fragrance, a very familiar fragrance.
It is the aroma of beef broth.And it is an authentic beef soup that can only be cooked with genuine beef soup.
One by one, has that damned ghost girl come to this place?
Lu Xiaofeng's heart started to beat.
Of course his heart was beating all the time, only several times faster than usual now.
He saw the door of the underground kiln opened, and a white and soft hand, holding a bowl of steaming beef soup, stretched out from the door.
His heart beat faster.
How did she get here?Why are you here?To save him, or to harm him?
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't figure it out.
Apart from herself, no one else could guess her thoughts and actions.
Hands carrying beef soup appeared one after another, and then people came in.
A very young, very beautiful woman, pale face with a look of panic, as if to be a thief, this woman is certainly not beef soup.Even if beef soup is really a thief, it will not be a little panicked.
Lu Xiaofeng sighed again, he didn't know whether it was luck or disappointment.
The girl walked in quickly, and quickly closed the door: "Are you Lu Xiaofeng?"
Lu Xiaofeng nodded. "What about you?" he asked.
"I'm here to help." She came over, knelt down, and brought the beef soup to Lu Xiaofeng's mouth: "Drink this bowl of soup quickly, it must be good for you."
"what is the benefit?"
The girl couldn't speak, but kept urging.
Lu Xiaofeng asked again: "Who told you to come?"
"Of course it's your friend." The girl said, "A friend who cares about you very much!"
"If you really want to help, you should untie the acupuncture points for me first."
"I won't, I don't know what acupuncture is."
She seemed very anxious, as if she wanted to pinch Lu Xiaofeng's nose and pour this bowl of beef soup into his belly.
Lu Xiaofeng kept his mouth shut.
She was even more anxious: "You don't drink? Why don't you drink?"
Lu Xiaofeng only shook his head, but didn't speak.He couldn't think of any good for him after drinking this bowl of beef soup, but he could think of a hundred kinds of bad.
Suddenly there were footsteps outside the door, the footsteps of many people.
The girl's hand trembled, and a bowl of beef soup fell to the ground, smashing into pieces, and then someone outside the door shouted: "The second princess is here."
The cellar door opened again, wide open.Four palace ladies in brocade clothes and high temples, carrying palace lanterns, stood outside the door.The light shines on a fairy-like woman, with a fairy-like demeanor and a fairy-like dress.
But in Lu Xiaofeng's eyes, this woman is more hateful than a ghost, more terrifying than a monster.
Because he knew that this kind of woman would never have any kindness towards him when she came here.
After walking in, he realized that her face was still covered with a black veil.
- Why doesn't she let people see her face?Because of being too beautiful?Or is it because of a missing nose?Missing an eye?
Ugly people often do mischief, especially women, what is she trying to do?
Lu Xiaofeng suddenly had hope in his heart.
One by one, maybe I can't find a man, maybe she has taken a fancy to me, so she wants to come...
Men always like to indulge themselves, not to mention that Lu Xiaofeng's thinking is not too outrageous.
The girl who came in with the beef soup just now quietly backed out.
Although he couldn't see the expression on the face of the second princess, he could imagine that she must be looking at him.It was as if a man was looking at those poor women.
Now he really fully understood why those women did what they did.
When a person has no other choice, he can only wrong himself.
He understands this feeling, only because he himself has this kind of plan now.
As long as the second princess is willing to let him go, no matter what he is asked to do, he will not refuse.
Sure enough, the door of the underground kiln was closed again, and the second princess was still bolted inside.
Lu Xiaofeng's heart began to beat again, he forced a smile, and said, "Second Princess, do you have any orders for coming here?"
The second princess stared at him for a long time, then suddenly said: "You don't have to call me the second princess."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why?"
The second princess said: "I'm not a real princess at all!"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "No?"
The second princess said: "I'm just the righteous sister of the little prince."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "That's the same."
That's really the same, as long as the little prince is willing to listen to her, it doesn't matter if she is a bitch.
The second princess said: "Just now I said that what you said was not true, are you hating me?"
Lu Xiaofeng immediately shook his head and said, "At least you always think I've told the truth!"
Is he reminding her: "As long as it's a woman, any kind of woman is fine!"
The second princess said: "Then you agree to all my orders?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes."
The second princess said: "Okay, go to die!"
Lu Xiaofeng was startled, and said: "You came here to tell me to die?"
The second princess said: "Not bad."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "You don't have any other intentions?"
The second princess said: "No."
Lu Xiaofeng was wondering—is she trying to test me on purpose?
This is almost his last hope, and he can't help thinking of the best.
But the second princess had already drawn out a knife and threw it by his left hand.
A short knife one foot three inches long, the blade gleamed with black light.
The second princess said: "This is a poisonous knife, a poisonous knife that seals the throat when it sees blood."
Lu Xiaofeng could see that the poison on the blade looked like a poisonous snake.
The second princess said again: "I know you can still move your left hand."
This hand is the only one in his whole body that can move, and it was Sikong Zhaixing who made it move.
The little prince asked Sikong Zhuixing to untie the acupuncture point of this hand for him, because he wanted him to drink.
The second princess said: "Since you were able to raise a glass with this hand just now, of course you can hold a knife with this hand now."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly, "Being able to hold a knife doesn't necessarily mean being able to kill people."
The second princess said: "I said before, this is a poisonous knife that seals the throat when it sees blood. You only need to use this knife to draw a bloody gash on your body, wherever you want, you will die."
Lu Xiaofeng rolled his eyes and said, "After I'm dead, isn't there anyone hiding there anymore?"
The second princess said: "There are people."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Who?"
The second princess said: "I."
Lu Xiaofeng was stupid, really stupid.He finally found out who the second princess was.
This woman is like a lizard, who can change the color of her body at any time.
She can even change her voice at any time.
The second princess said: "Now you know who I am?"
Lu Xiaofeng sighed, and said: "Now I finally know, you are not human at all, but a monster."
The second princess turned out to be beef soup, genuine beef soup.
The black veil had been removed, revealing a pale and beautiful face with eyes as bright as blades.The blade of the knife on the ground, the blade of a poisonous snake.
Lu Xiaofeng looked at her: "You should be able to see it."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "But I don't understand."
Beef soup said: "What don't you understand?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "I drink too much, I have seduced ten thousand women, I have done many things wrong, but I don't understand why you hate me?"
Beef Soup didn't answer directly.
She picked up the knife on the ground first, staring at the snake-like blade: "Can you tell that this is a poisonous knife?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "I can see it."
Beef soup said: "But some people can't."
Lu Xiaofeng admitted.
Beef soup said: "I am a princess, a lofty, sacred and inviolable princess, but you hate me?"
Beef soup said: "This is enough."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly.
Niu Tang said: "I did something like a slut in front of you, because at that time I thought you were dead, it was tantamount to a dead person."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "It's a pity I didn't die."
Niu Tang said: "That's why I insist on your death."
She bent down and rubbed Lu Xiaofeng's face lightly with the blade: "Now you are dead again."
The cold blade, the sweat is also cold, it has been cold to the bottom of my heart.
One by one you want me to come back alive to be a scapegoat.
- Now that my task is complete, after my death, this case will have to be closed.
Lu Xiaofeng looked at the shiny blade, at her hand holding the blade, waiting for the blade to cut off.
Niu Tang said: "Is there anyone who can save you now?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "No."
Beef soup said: "You can't even think of one person?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "I can't think of it."
Beef Tang smiled, sweetly and gently.
Just when she started laughing, the blade in her hand was ready to cut into Lu Xiaofeng's throat.
At this moment, there was a scream outside the door.
The cry was harsh and short.
Niu Niu Tang jumped up, turned over in the air, used the blade to pick the latch, and opened the door.
The palace lantern outside the door is burning.
All four palace lanterns were burning on the ground, because the four men who carried the lanterns had all fallen down.
Their bodies are distorted, and their faces are also distorted. The distorted faces are full of fright and fear, and they look even more terrifying and mysterious in the flames.
The flames flickered, and the expressions on their faces seemed to follow suit, but their eyes did not move.
The eyes of a dead man never move.
This was originally an underground kiln where foxes kept wine, but now this fox's den has become the palace of the little prince.
Of course, the place where the little prince's palace is located is heavily guarded.
Among the guards of the little prince, not only are there a lot of masters, but there are also masters of masters like Sikong Zhaixing and Eagle Eye Laoqi.
Who killed them?
Who can get past the guards above and come here to kill people?
Beef Tang's complexion changed.
She couldn't see this person, and she couldn't guess who this person was. With a flash of the knife, she also rushed out like lightning.The palace lantern was still burning, and of course the murderer hadn't gone far.
She must find this person, otherwise she will not be able to sleep tonight.
You may not be able to sleep many nights.
There is no wind in the kiln, and there is no living person outside the door.Now Lu Xiaofeng's mind doesn't seem to be much clearer and more flexible than that of a dead person.
He was completely taken aback.
Even Beef Soup couldn't think of who rescued him, and of course he couldn't think of it himself.
It's not that he has no friends, but at this moment, who can save him?Who is willing to save him?Who dares to save him?
He couldn't think about it, and he didn't need to think about it, because at this moment, under the burning lamp, a stone slab suddenly turned up, and in the dark cave, a pale hand stretched out, holding a long With a volley, he fell in the air and caught Lu Xiaofeng's feet.
Lu Xiaofeng was immediately dragged there, and dragged into the cave under the stone slab.The stone slabs were immediately closed, and it was pitch black on all sides.
Lu Xiaofeng could only hear someone breathing, but couldn't see the person's nose.
Some say he is Nighteyes.This is not to brag for him, he can indeed see a lot of things that others can't see in very dim light.
He can even count the beads of sweat on the tip of a girl's nose in a room with only starlight and no lights.
It's a pity that in this kind of place, his night eyes are useless.
He couldn't help asking: "Who are you? Why did you save me?"
no answer.He still wants to ask again, the person has been lifted up, and the person who carried him has started to move forward.
This person is more familiar with this place than beef soup. He doesn't even know beef soup, but he knows it.
Since he took the risk to save Lu Xiaofeng, he dared not let Lu Xiaofeng see his true face.
These points made Lu Xiaofeng even more puzzled, he only found two things:
The man had broad shoulders and was by no means a woman.
This person's feet are very good, with a big man on his shoulders, his steps are still as light as the wind.
Lu Xiaofeng suddenly sneered: "I know who you are!"
This time there was a reaction in the darkness: "Who am I?"
"Sikong Zhaixing!"
This person also sneered: "If I were Sikong Zhaixing, I wouldn't be afraid to let you know after betraying you, why should I be afraid of you knowing now?"
Lu Xiaofeng shut his mouth.Not because he couldn't refute what the man said, but because he discovered one more thing—
The man had a strange smell, like a piece of freshly washed meat.
That was definitely not the smell of Sikong Zhaixing.
The tunnel was narrow and long, and it had obviously come to an end, because the man had stopped.
There is obviously another door at the end, because Lu Xiaofeng has already heard the sound of the door opening.
There is obviously a room inside the door, and there is a bed in the room, and the bed is covered with a thick quilt.Because Lu Xiaofeng had already been put on the bed.
It's a pity that the house is also pitch black, and you can't even see whether the roof is black or white, tall or short.
Although sleeping on a thick quilt is much more comfortable than lying on a slate, this darkness is even more unbearable.
Lu Xiaofeng sighed in his heart, he couldn't tell if this person wanted to save him?Still want to hurt him?
Suddenly there was a voice in the darkness: "You must be wondering, since I saved you, why didn't I let you go?"
Lu Xiaofeng was originally wondering.
"Are you trying to tell me?" he asked.
"No." The man said, "I just want to make a bet with you!"
"Bet?" Lu Xiaofeng was even more surprised.
This person took the risk to save him, did he just want to make a bet with him?
Of course he couldn't help but ask, "How do you want to bet? What do you want to bet on?"
"Bet you!" The man said: "As long as you can guess who I am, I will immediately unlock your acupuncture points and let you go!"
"What if I can't guess?"
"Then you kneel down and give me three hundred and sixty slaps."
Lu Xiaofeng was dumbfounded.This mysterious and sinister incident suddenly became a joke. God knows what kind of joke it is.
Other than Sikong Zhaixing, it was really hard for him to think of anyone else who would do such a thing.
Hard to think of, not impossible to think of.
The man asked solemnly again: "Do you gamble or not?"
Lu Xiaofeng replied as if he was very sure: "It's the tortoise who doesn't gamble."
The man said, "Guess who I am?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "You are that bastard plus three levels of living bald donkey, dead monk."
Suddenly someone in the darkness laughed, laughing loudly.
Amidst the loud laughter, a lamp on the table also lit up.
It was only then that Lu Xiaofeng realized that besides himself, there were actually two other people in the room.
One laughed so hard that his nose and tears flowed out together, while the other was so angry that he couldn't even cry.
The one who was about to die of laughter was Sikong Zhaixing, but the one who was about to be stupefied was a little military officer wearing a big hat.
He was staring at Lu Xiaofeng: "How did you guess it?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "At first I couldn't guess it, luckily you have a good habit."
The man couldn't help but ask, "What's a good habit?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "You don't take a bath!"
He was also laughing: "You must bathe less often than eighty-year-old men and old women. Apart from you, I really can't think of anyone else who smells like you."
The man stared at him, stomped his feet suddenly, took off the big hat on his head, and threw it hard on the ground.
A bare top of the head was immediately exposed like a goose egg with its shell peeled off.
Sikong Zhaixing laughed and said: "This monk has been angry with you all his life, and he even dreamed of taking revenge on you. He finally found this opportunity, but he still fell into your hands."
Lu Xiaofeng looked at him, then at the honest monk, sighed suddenly, and said: "Now I finally understand who the real number one bastard in the world is!"
Sikong Zhaixing smiled even more happily, but couldn't help asking deliberately: "Who is it?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "It's you!"
Sikong Zhaixing called out: "Why is it still me?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Because you must have come up with this idea for him. Besides you, who else came up with such a good idea?"
The honest monk also laughed, and laughed loudly: "No matter what, Lu Xiaofeng still has some vision!"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Only a little?"
The honest monk said: "Of course there is more than one point, at least seventy or eighty points."
Sikong Zhaixing rushed to say: "Then his nose should have at least one hundred points!"
The honest monk does not understand.
Sikong Zhaixing said: "If his nose is not stronger than his eyes, how can he smell the smell of dead meat?"
The honest monk smiled wryly and said: "Actually, the monk not only took a bath today, but also washed it very clean."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Actually, monks can't be considered too stinky, sometimes it's not bad to stink."
Sikong Zhaixing said: "Are you telling the truth? Or are you deliberately flattering?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "The monk saved me, even if I flatter him, I should do it!"
Sikong Zhaixing said: "Do you really think he saved you?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Who is it?"
Sikong Zaixing said leisurely: "He is someone I guarantee you will never be able to guess for the rest of your life!"
Lu Xiaofeng was startled, then turned to look at the honest monk.
The honest monk sighed and said, "I'm afraid you really can't guess this time!"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Who are you talking about?"
The honest monk looked at Sikong Zhaixing, and Sikong Zhaixing looked at the honest monk, both of them kept their mouths shut.
Suddenly someone outside the door answered for them: "It's me!"
Elegant voice, very gentle, very polite.
Of course Lu Xiaofeng could hear whose voice it was, but he never even dreamed that the person who wanted to save him was the little prince who came all the way and took all kinds of efforts to catch him.
Even if you broke his head in this kind of thing, he wouldn't believe it.
But now he can't believe it if he doesn't want to.Because the little prince has already appeared.
The acupoints have been unlocked, but Lu Xiaofeng is still sitting there like a wooden man, unable to even move.
He froze again.
There was food, wine, and even a big bowl of steaming beef soup on the table.
The little prince smiled and said: "I know you like to drink this kind of beef soup, you might as well drink some soup before drinking!"
Lu Xiaofeng neither drank soup nor drank alcohol.
The only thing he wants to drink now is the water of wisdom that can make people smarter.
He suddenly realized that he was really stupid as hell, ten times stupider than three hundred dirt dogs and five hundred dirt pigs combined.
The little prince said: "I know you must be puzzled. Since I caught you, why did I secretly ask someone to rescue you?"
Lu Xiaofeng finally couldn't help sighing, and said with a wry smile: "Who can figure out such a thing, that person must be a genius!"
Sikong Zhaixing said: "I am a genius!"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "You?"
Sikong Zhaixing said: "The little prince did this just to cover up people's eyes and ears!"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Whose eyes and ears are covered?"
Sikong Zhaixing said: "Everyone's eyes and ears must be covered, especially..."
He looked at the little prince and closed his mouth.
But the little prince spoke out for him: "Especially the person who made this bowl of beef soup."
Lu Xiaofeng blinked and said, "You mean the second princess?"
小王爷点点头，道：“她只不过是父王最近才收的义女。”
陆小凤道：“她岂非也正是你最信任的人！”
小王爷苦笑道：“一个人要想活得长些，有时不能不装装糊涂。”
他在叹息，陆小凤心里也在叹息。
这句话说起来虽然容易，可是真正能做得到的又有几人。 ,
小王爷道：“装糊涂并不是件容易事，我竟忍耐了很久，可是现在......”
陆小凤道：“现在你已经知道了她的来历？”
小王爷道：“本来我一直只不过是在怀疑而已，现在老实大师回来了，我才知道她还比我以前怀疑的更可怕。”
陆小凤承认，连他都从未见过像牛肉汤那么可怕的女人。
小王爷道：“可是我本来并不怕她！”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Oh!"
小王爷道：“如果情况没有变化，我还是可以对付她，她若敢对我下手，我随时都可以将她置于死地。”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Oh?"
小王爷道：“你有没有注意到我的卫士中，有六个容貌最平凡，从来不开口的人？”
陆小凤当然没注意到。那六个人不但容貌平凡，而且脸上永无表情，无论他们的人在哪里，一双灼灼有光的眸子始终都没有离开过小王爷的左右。
他注意到他们，也就因为他们的眸子和他们的脸绝不相称。
小王爷道：“以你的眼力，当然也看得出他们脸上都戴着层人皮面具！”
陆小凤承认：“像那么精巧的面具，江湖中已经很少看得到了！”
小王爷道：“这六个人就是我的贴身卫士，随时都愿意为我而死，因为如果没有我，他们早已不知死了多少次。”
他又补充道：“因为他们每个人都有段极不平凡的经历，不是身上背了血案，就是惹上了极厉害的仇家，所以才来投奔我，所以才不敢以真面目见人。”
这种情况并不特殊，为了避祸而投入官家的江湖巨盗也绝不止这六个。
小王爷道：“我肯收容他们，当然因为他们的武功都极高，而且一定会为我卖命。”
这一点陆小凤也可以想像得到。
他看得出这位小王爷是位极厉害的人物，这六人无疑都已受了他的挟制，如果小王爷死了，他们也一定活不下去。
小王爷道：“以这六个人的力量，要对付那女人并不难，这一点我绝对有把握！”
他忽然叹了口气，道：“只可惜现在......”
陆小凤忍不住问：“现在怎么样？”
小王爷没有回答，却反问道：“你有没有注意到最后一个点你穴道的人是谁？”
Lu Xiaofeng nodded.
那人容貌呆板，死眉死脸，但出手却又快又重，正是小王爷所说的贴身卫士之一。
小王爷道：“你看不看得出他点你穴道时，用的是什么手法？”
陆小凤道：“是不是滇边穿云门的穿云指？”
小王爷道：“果然是好眼力。”
陆小凤道：“穿云门的指上功夫和点穴手法，都独创一格，可是自从五年前与点苍七剑火拼于五华绝顶之后，门下的弟子据说已死光了。”
小王爷道：“还剩下一个没有死。”
陆小凤道：“哪一个？”
小王爷道：“那一战的惨烈，你想必也有所闻，能够不死的，当然是穿云门下的第一高手。”
陆小凤道：“是不是他们的掌门人段穿云？”
小王爷道：“不错。”
陆小凤道：“点我穴道的人就是他？”
小王爷道：“本来应该是的！”
陆小凤道：“现在......”
小王爷道：“现在却有了个问题！”
陆小凤道：“问题？什么问题？”
小王爷道：“死人会不会点穴？”
陆小凤反问道：“段穿云已经是个死人？”
小王爷点点头，道：“我们发现他尸体时，他至少已死了三天！”
陆小凤忍不住倒了杯酒，一饮而尽。
这件事听起来不但诡秘，而且荒谬，其实却简单得很。
一一段穿云脸上戴着面具。
一一有个人杀了段穿云，戴上他的面具，来冒充他。
小王爷道：“这其中我只想不通一点！”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Which point?"
小王爷道：“穿云门的弟子，都已死光了，冒充段穿云的这个人，怎么也能使他们独门的穿云指？”
这一点陆小凤能解释：“因为这个人一定也是从那岛上来的，不管哪一门哪一派的武功，那里都有人练过！”
小王爷长么叹了口气，道：“我想不通的一点，其实并不可怕。”
陆小凤道：“可怕的是什么？”
小王爷道：“是我已经想通了一点！”
陆小凤又问：“哪一点？”
小王爷道：“段穿云虽然是我贴身的的卫士，平时却始终跟我保持着一段距离！”
卫士和主子之间，当然要保持段距离的。
陆小凤道：“所以你一直都看不出他已是别人伪装的。”
小王爷点点头，道：“可是他们六个人之间的关系却很密切，平日几乎寸步不离，连睡觉都睡在一间屋子里！”
他也喝了杯酒，才慢慢的接着道：“这些人都是经验丰富的老江湖了，一向目光锐利，观察入微，为什么连他们都看不出这个段穿云是别人伪装的？”
这问题只有一个答案！
“因为他们也是伪装的，小王爷这六位贴身卫士，都已换了对方的人！”
陆小凤再次举杯，忽然发现自己的手比酒杯还冷。
这位小王爷现在的处境，简直就像一只已落入虎群中的羔羊。
小王爷道：“但是现在我绝不能揭穿他，甚至连一点神色都不能露出来，因为他们若知道我已发现这秘密，就绝不会留下我的活口。”
他叹了口气，苦笑道：“他们直到现在还没有对我下手，只因为他们已将我看成他们的囊中物，而且一定还有什么地主想利用我！”
陆小凤也忍不住叹了口气，苦笑道：“我实在佩服你，你实在沉得住气！”
He spoke the truth.
这位小王爷的冷静与镇定，实在很少有人能比得上。
小王爷道：“只不过他们迟早还是会下手的，他们绝不会让我活着回王府去的。”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why?"
小王爷道：“因为......因为......”
他脸上忽然露出种奇怪的表情，仿佛有什么难言之隐，过了很久，才叹息着接道：“因为现在我知道的已太多了！”
别人不愿说的事，陆小凤一向不问。
可是这次他却不能不破例。
这件事不但和他有关，而且关系着千百人的生死荣辱，甚至已能改变武林的历史与命运。
因为这件疑案不破，不但镖局中的精英尽毁，还不知有多少武林豪杰要因此家破人亡，身败名裂。
所以他忍不住问道：“你究竟知道些什么别人不知道的事？”
小王爷已闭上了嘴。
陆小凤道：“据我所知，那岛上有种很特别的规矩！”
小王爷道：“什么规矩？”
陆小凤道：“他们只杀人，不劫财！”
他又补充道：“这规矩是一位奇人立下的，他的门人子弟，从不敢违背！”
小王爷沉吟着，试探着问：“所以你认为这件案子幕后一定还另有主使的人？”
陆小凤道：“一定有！”
小王爷道：“可是他......”
陆小凤打断了他的话，道：“这人用高价收买了世上最神秘，最可怕的一批刺客，刺杀了这件案子中唯一的活口。”
司空摘星叹道：“那件事来得的确太玄，我想了几十天，几乎连头都想破了，还是想不出他是怎么能进入鹰眼的密室中去杀人的！”
老实和尚道：“更奇怪的是，他杀了人之后，居然还能全身而退！”
这一点的确更不可思议。
司空摘星苦笑道：“除非他真是个隐形的人，这世上哪有隐形的人？”
陆小凤没有开口。
他又想起了那小老头的话，他的眼睛里仿佛闪过一道光。
司空摘星又道：“不管主持这次劫案的人是谁，他一定也知道很多别人不知道的事！”
Lu Xiaofeng was listening.
司空摘星道：“这趟镖走的是暗镖，护镖的人都经过改扮，启程的日期，行镖的路沿，投宿的地点，本来只有镖局的几位首脑知道！”
以这趟镖的重要，他们当然要严守秘密。
司空摘星道：“但是劫镖的人却好像对每件事都知道得很清楚，所以才能事前就在太行山的那小镇上布下陷阱！”
陆小凤立刻又补充了一点：“那批佛像和木鱼，也绝不是短期内能做成的！”
司空摘星道：“但是从小王爷找人护镖，到镖被劫一共才只不过三五天！”
用兵贵在神速。这一次他们行动之迅速，计划之周密，几乎已打破了镖局史上所有的记录。
可是这趟镖还是被劫了。
陆小凤道：“难道劫镖的人在事先就已知道这趟镖的秘密？所以早就准备好那批佛像和木鱼，难道他不但能隐形，还能先知？”
这问题没有人能答复。
陆小凤凝视小王爷，道：“真正要杀你的人，也许并不是这些刺客，而是劫镖的主谋！”
小王爷道：“哦？”
陆小凤道：“因为你很可能有了线索，很可能已经发现了他的秘密！”
小王爷又闭上了嘴，现在他脸上的表情不但奇怪，而且显得很痛苦。
陆小凤盯着他，眼睛里也露出种奇怪的表情，仿佛已从他的神色间，看出件可怕的事。
司空摘星道：“这里面还有一点可疑！”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Say it!"
司空摘星道：“这些刺客的行踪，是不是很秘密？”
