Chapter 44 Chapter 44 Love Entangles Life and Death

The woman's white sheep-like body is curled up in the box, her curves are so soft, her body is so plump, and her skin is so crystal clear. Her chest was still rising and falling slightly, but her eyes were closed, and her beautiful face was flushed, as if she was in a deep sleep or unconscious. Shen Lang, Zhu Qiqi, Wang Lianhua, and Panda'er were almost taken aback—they suddenly discovered that this beautiful face looked a bit like Mrs. Wang, but lacked the intimidation of Mrs. Wang. The charm of people. King Joyful laughed and said, "This woman looks pretty good, but Your Excellency shouldn't have sent her here at this moment. Aren't Your Excellency afraid that this king's new wife will be jealous?"

Bu Gong smiled and said: "My lord, don't misunderstand the intention of this junior. The younger generation sent this woman not to the lord as a concubine, but to the lord and the concubine as a sacrifice for today's wedding." Happy King frowned and said, "What do you mean? This king doesn't understand." Bu Gong said straightly: "In ancient times, animals were used as sacrifices in every important ceremony, to thank heaven and earth. If live people are used instead of animals, it will naturally appear the most solemn." Happy King interjected: "You sent her here, do you want me to kill her?"

Bu Gongzhi smiled slightly and said, "This junior sent her here for exactly this." The Happy King slapped the table and said sharply, "Are you here on purpose to make fun of this King?" Bu Gong bowed straight and said, "Your junior dare not." Happy King said angrily: "Today is my king's auspicious day, but you sent someone to be killed by me. What is the reason for this? There is no such ridiculous thing in the world." Bu Gongzhi's expression remained unchanged, and he said slowly: "This junior just learned by accident that this woman was coming to destroy the prince's wedding, so he planned to take her down. The prince will use it as a sacrificial ceremony, which is very auspicious. "

Happy Wang said: "You said this woman wanted to come and destroy this king's wedding?" Bu Gong said straightly: "Exactly." Happy King raised his head and laughed wildly: "Can this woman ruin my king's wedding?" Bu Gong said straightly: "The junior didn't believe it at all, but after hearing what she said, he felt...a little..." He stammered, as if it was difficult for him to speak some words. The Jolly King snapped, "What did she say?" Bu Gong muttered straightly: "She... this..." Happy King patted the case and said, "Say it quickly."

Bu Gong said straightly: "The younger generation really dare not say it." Happy King said angrily, "Why don't you dare to say it?" Bu Gong said straightly: "If the younger generation speaks out straight, the prince will inevitably blame him..." Happy King said: "Just say it, I will never blame you." Bu Gong said straightly: "Since you have the golden words of the prince, the younger generation can speak with confidence." He let out a long breath and said, "Just because this woman said she has the right to stop the prince's marriage..."

Happy King said angrily, "Why would she dare to say that?" Bu Gong looked around and said in a deep voice, "She said she was the prince's wife." When these words came out, everyone couldn't help being surprised. Happy King said angrily: "How dare she do this..." He seemed to have suddenly realized that the woman in the box looked a bit like Mrs. Wang, and he was stunned by it, and his voice was interrupted. Bu Gongzhi acted as if he hadn't seen it, and slowly continued: "Of course, the younger generation will never believe her nonsense, but this woman also said some things, but they are even more unbearable."

Happy King stared blankly at the woman in the box, and was speechless for a while. Bai Feifei said, "What else did she say?" Bu Gong said straightly: "If the princess does not see the crime, I will dare to say it." Bai Feifei said: "Tell me, how can I blame you." Bu Gong said straightly: "She also said that all women in the world can marry the prince, but you can't marry the princess." Bai Feifei said: "Why?" Bu Gong said straightly: "She said, just because...just because Wangfei, you are the daughter of the prince." It is even more shocking to say this sentence.Even Shen Lang and the others couldn't help but change their colors.

They really couldn't help but have doubts about the woman in the box - she would never be Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang would never fall into Bu Gongzhi's hands. So, who is she? How did she know these amazing secrets? How could she look somewhat similar to Mrs. Wang? Is there really some kind of mysterious relationship between her and the Happy King? The golden flower on Bai Feifei's phoenix crown was trembling, and the bead curtain on the double face was fluctuating, and finally he stood up suddenly, rushed to the Happy King, and said in a trembling voice: "Did you hear what he said? "

Happy King seemed to be still in a daze, and said blankly: "I heard...of course I heard it." Bai Feifei said: "I heard that, why don't you kill her?" Happy Wang said: "Kill who?" Bai Feifei said: "Of course it's the woman in that box." Happy Wang said: "Oh, kill her?" Bai Feifei stumbled and said, "You still don't do it! Why don't you do it?" Happy Wang said: "Do you want to do it?... Do you do it now?" His expression looked extremely strange, although the words came from his mouth, it didn't seem to be him.This generation of heroes seems to be out of control at this moment.

Bai Feifei's whole body trembled, and said, "You don't want to do anything, is she really your wife?" Happy King smiled strangely and said, "Of course she is not my wife." Bai Feifei hissed: "Since it's not, you can kill her and show me..." Merry King murmured: "You want me to kill her...Okay, okay..." Bu Gongzhi also had a strange smile on his face, he walked up a few steps suddenly, untied the golden machete at his waist, and held it up with both hands. Bai Fei flew over and drew out the knife, and threw it in front of Happy King, tremblingly said: "If you don't kill her, I will die in front of you."

Happy King suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly: "Since you are determined to make this king take action, this king has no choice but to do so." Amidst the laughter, he picked up the scimitar and said sharply, "Killing people, isn't it so easy?" With a flash of knife light, it slashed towards Bai Feifei like lightning. The light of the sword is like lightning, and the wind of the sword is like thunder. But no one would have imagined that the assassin's knife would actually strike at the bride Bai Feifei. Even Panda Er and others could not have imagined that the Happy King would have such a move. Even if Happy King already believed that Bai Feifei was his daughter, he shouldn't have hit her with this killer, and under no circumstances should he have stabbed Bai Feifei. But Bai Feifei seemed to have already thought of this trick. The sword light was first displayed, and before the exclamation of the crowd could be heard, Bai Feifei's body had already floated out obliquely, and the beautiful wedding dress fluttered around, looking like a fairy rising from the clouds. The unstoppable knife of Happy King did not cut her. The exclamation of the crowd has only now sounded. Bai Feifei seemed to be glued to the pillars of the hall, and said, "You're going to kill me instead of her? Are you crazy?" Happy King laughed wildly and said: "You are a mere trick, can you hide it from others, and can you hide it from Happy King?" Bai Feifei said: "Trick? What kind of trick?" Happy King's laughter stopped abruptly, and he said sharply: "Keep the four gates, don't let any one out." Even though none of Qunhao could figure out what was going on up to this moment, everyone had already jumped up because of the order of Happy King. Bu Gong said straightly: "But junior..." Happy King sneered and said, "Especially you...you can come and go today." Bu Gongzhi stepped back three steps, suddenly laughed and said: "Okay, Happy King, you are indeed a powerful person, and I, Bu Gong, admire you." Amidst the laughter, his figure suddenly turned around, only to hear a series of "chi, chi, chi" sounds, and a purple smoke suddenly burst from his body. Happy King moved and shouted: "Hold your breath, don't let the two of them escape." With just this one sentence, the purple smoke has filled the entire hall. At this moment—Zhu Qiqi said: "What's going on?" Panda Er said: "Could it be Bu Gongzhi's witchcraft escape method?" Wang Lianhua said: "Interesting, indeed interesting." It was at this moment—— Zhu Qiqi, Panda'er, Wang Lianhua and others felt a hand untie their acupoints.They were both shocked and happy, but they heard Shen Lang's voice: "Hold your breath and rush out with me." The hall was already in chaos, amidst the clanging, there were screams of misery. Zhu Qiqi tugged on Shen Lang's skirt in a daze, and rushed forward in a daze.She didn't know how Shen Lang's acupoints were unlocked, let alone how Shen Lang could rush out, but Shen Lang did. The smoke has spread outside, and everyone outside is choking and coughing. When these people saw Shen Lang rushing out, they screamed and rushed forward, but with a slight wave of Shen Lang's palm, they were shaken and fell - there are few people in the world who can stop Shen Lang. Zhu Qiqi's hands and feet were still numb, Panda Er and Wang Lianhua staggered behind her, their hands and feet were obviously not as flexible as usual. Even if they have extraordinary skill, but their acupoints have been confined for so long, it is inevitable that their hands and feet will become paralyzed. This is a phenomenon that no one can avoid. However, Shen Lang did not have this phenomenon. There is still a person on his back, and his movements are still so flexible-he seems to have a kind of magical power, no one can guess it. What was even more puzzling was that the person in the box was on his back. Why did he rescue her at such a critical time? Zhu Qiqi rushed through a stone corridor in a daze, rushed up a long stone step, and rushed out of this mysterious underground city gate. If someone asked her how she got out afterwards, she would definitely not be able to answer. All she knew was that she had finally reached the ground, that she had finally seen the stars.She didn't know until now that Xingguang was so cute. The sky is full of stars, and it is Zishi. Under the starlight, a group of people guarded a herd of horses. Shen Lang knocked down the man, snatched the horse, rushed through a small village, and then went back alone, snatching a few sheepskin bags of water and a few packages of dry food. Although Happy King had guards, he was caught off guard and was not prepared at all. What's more, Shen Lang moved as fast as a ghost, they could hardly see his shadow. Although the strength of Panda'er and others has not recovered, they still have the strength to fight horses.Several people hit the horse with all their strength, and rushed dozens of miles in one breath. Ahead was a boundless swampy desert. Although this boundless desert is full of terror in the night, it is still much cuter than the dark prison cell. Zhu Qiqi jumped on the horse and galloped wildly, couldn't help shouting with joy. Panda couldn't help laughing and said, "We still haven't died, we still escaped." Zhu Qiqi giggled and said, "Wang Lianhua, you should admire Shen Lang now, right?" Wang Lianhua sighed: "Shen Lang, Shen Lang, I really don't know what mysterious magic power you have, and I really can't figure out how you escaped." Zhu Qiqi said: "That's not bad, although I escaped, it's still like a dream." Shen Lang sighed: "Man, this is really a fluke." Zhu Qiqi said loudly: "Let's rest first? I have a few words and I don't ask you again. I'm really going to suffocate." Several people found a shelter from the wind and rested - this was originally a dry riverbed, so naturally there were many depressions sheltered from the wind. Zhu Qiqi pulled Shen Lang, and said: "Don't talk about anything else, let me ask you first, how did you unlock your acupoints?" Shen Lang said: "Acupoints? This..." It was indeed a secret, a secret known only to him. Bai Feifei, he thought of Bai Feifei again...remembered those miserable and carnival days in that mysterious stone room. Every time, when Bai Feifei came, he would first untie his acupoints, and then press them when he was about to leave.She thought that Shen Lang was completely powerless to resist. She still underestimated Shen Lang. Shen Lang will always be Shen Lang, no matter what the situation is, he has his superhuman ability, time and time again, he slowly develops his ability. In the last time, he finally completely closed his acupoints—in that sad yet beautiful moment, Bai Feifei was finally concealed once. Therefore, on the eve of the wedding, Shen Lang could be said to be completely free, but he still pretended to be unable to move, he had to wait for the opportunity. This is Shen Lang's secret. Of course he couldn't, and he didn't want to tell this secret. He just smiled slightly, and said: "Didn't you say that I have mysterious magic power, so let's count it as mysterious magic power." Zhu Qiqi sighed, and smiled again: "I know, we will never understand you, and I don't want to understand you, as long as I... just like you is enough, but..." She glanced at the woman in the box, and couldn't help but said: "But you took such a risk to save her, but why?" The woman is still in a daze, and looks even more mysterious under the starlight.Her seductive body has been wrapped by Shen Lang's clothes, only revealing that beautiful and mysterious face. Shen Lang stared at her face, and suddenly heaved a long sigh, and said, "I'm afraid you will never know who she is." Zhu Qiqi was startled, and said, "Who is she? Who is she?" Panda said: "Is she Mrs. Wang?" Wang Lianhua said decisively: "Although she looks a bit like her, she is definitely not." Shen Lang didn't answer, but tore off a piece of sleeve, soaked it in water, and wiped it gently on the woman's face, slowly and carefully. Zhu Qiqi opened his eyes wide, looking at his hands. Then, suddenly, a miracle happened. This face is surprisingly Bai Feifei's. Zhu Qiqi, Panda Er, and Wang Lianhua were all stunned. This woman was actually Bai Feifei, they really never even dreamed that this woman would be Bai Feifei.The three of them opened their mouths wide at the same time, unable to close them. After a long while, Zhu Qiqi finally couldn't help shouting: "Oh my god, my god, what's going on and why did Bai Feifei run into the box? Isn't she obviously a bride?" Panda touched his head and said, "If the one here is Bai Feifei, who is the bride there?" Zhu Qiqi took Shen Lang's hand and said, "Please, tell us quickly! If you don't make it clear, I will really be suffocated to death." Shen Lang smiled and said: "This matter is indeed complicated and bizarre. Not only would no one have guessed it beforehand, even afterward...if I hadn't ignored every word they said, I wouldn't have been able to guess it." Panda said: "Let me ask you first..." Zhu Qiqi hurriedly said: "I'll ask first, I'll ask first..." This matter is really complicated, and she really didn't know where to start asking. She bit her lip and thought for a long time, and finally said loudly: "Okay, let me ask you first, since Bai Feifei is here, who is the new bride?" Shen Lang sighed for a long time, and said: "I really couldn't figure out who the bride was. She was obviously Bai Feifei all along, so how could she become someone else? That is almost impossible." Zhu Qiqi said: "What about now? You should have figured it out by now." Shen Lang said: "You might as well think about it, besides Bai Feifei, who else knows the secret? Who wants to reveal those secrets wholeheartedly? And who has such a great ability?" Zhu Qiqi thought for a while, then suddenly jumped up and said involuntarily, "Could it be Mrs. Wang you're talking about?" Shen Lang sighed again, and said word by word: "That's right, it's Mrs. Wang." Zhu Qiqi said: "But how did Bai Feifei become Mrs. Wang?... No, I said how did the bride become Mrs. Wang? And how did Bai Feifei run into the box?" Shen Lang said: "Do you remember, when the wedding started, the bride came late." Zhu Qiqi said: "Of course I remember, but..." Shen Lang interjected: "Do you remember what Fang Xinqi said at that time?" Zhu Qiqi thought for a while and said: "He said that there are two experienced bridesmaids and a hairdresser who sells pollen, and they are putting on makeup for the bride. He also said that the old man has been in business for fifty years and is an honest man. people." Shen Lang smiled slightly and said, "That's right, you remember it very clearly." Zhu Qiqi said: "But... what does it matter?" Shen Lang said: "I didn't think of the relationship, but after thinking about it carefully, I realized that the problem lies here." Zhu Qiqi stomped his feet and said, "What's wrong? Tell me quickly!" Shen Lang said: "An honest person can be dishonest sometimes. Although the old man who combs his hair is not disguised by others, he has already been bribed, and one of the two bridesmaids must be Mrs. Wang." Zhu Qiqi clapped his hands and said, "Ah! Not bad!" Shen Lang said: "Mrs. Wang disguised herself as Xi Niang and sneaked in. While dressing Bai Feifei, she charmed Bai Feifei. Although Bai Feifei is extremely clever, he is still inferior to Mrs. Wang." Wang Lianhua sneered, "She's still far behind." Shen Lang said: "So Mrs. Wang made Bai Feifei look a bit like herself, but she dressed herself up as Bai Feifei. I don't need to tell you about Mrs. Wang's method of disguise." Panda said: "What's more, she still wears a phoenix crown on her head and pearls on her face. No matter how sharp the eyes are, the Happy King will not be able to see it." Zhu Qiqi said: "But how could Bai Feifei run into the box?" Panda Er said: "Yes, that box was obviously brought by Mr. Bu from outside." Shen Lang said: "How thorough is Mrs. Wang's actions! The old man brought pollen in, naturally there was a box, she vacated the pollen, and put Bai Feifei into the box." Zhu Qiqi said: "But... Bu Gongzhi..." Shen Lang said: "Of course Mrs. Wang has already made an appointment with Bu Gongzhi to bring in the same empty box, and then took advantage of people's unpreparedness and exchanged the empty box for the box containing Bai Feifei." Panda clapped her hands and said, "That's right. She must have put the box containing Bai Feifei outside the hall first. At that time, when Happy King's wedding ceremony was in full swing, no one would notice the box." Shen Lang said: "There is another key point here. When Mrs. Wang puts down the box, it is when the bride walks in. No matter what, the bride is naturally the target of everyone's attention." Zhu Qiqi said: "She has long calculated that others will only pay attention to the bride and never pay attention to the box." Shen Lang nodded and said: "Not bad, but this alone is not enough to show that Mrs. Wang is thoughtful..." Zhu Qiqi hurriedly said: "One more thing, when Bu Gong is changing boxes, that is, when he walks in by himself, at that time, other people's eyes are all attracted by his strange appearance, and they only focus on looking at him, naturally And you won’t notice that the eight big men carrying boxes have quietly changed boxes.” Panda Er said: "It's wonderful, it's no wonder that Mrs. Wang chose Bu Gongzhi, not only because of Bu Gongzhi's magic tricks, but also because of his strange appearance. People like him, No matter where he walks, he must be noticed, not to mention that he deliberately dressed up in a weird way." Shen Lang smiled and said: "That's right, before and after this incident, every detail is in Mrs. Wang's calculations." Zhu Qiqi sighed: "In terms of careful consideration, there is no one in the world who can match her." Panda Er said: "Women's thoughts are much more careful than men's." He is a knight-errant, and he has always been rough and bold in his life. Although he has been more careful in his actions recently, his nature is hard to change, so it is not meant to be praised. Wang Lianhua glanced at Zhu Qiqi, then smiled suddenly: "Women's thoughts may not be thoughtful for everyone." Shen Lang said: "This matter fell short, only because she is a woman." Wang Lianhua said: "How do you say that?" Shen Lang said: "Although a woman's thoughts are thorough, her mind is somewhat narrow..." Zhu Qiqi sneered: "Women's hearts may not be narrow for everyone." Shen Lang smiled and said: "Although the words are good, but generally speaking, Song women's hearts are always more extreme and vicious, otherwise this matter will not be a failure." Zhu Qiqi said: "How do you say that?" Shen Lang said: "If this matter is done by a man, after bewitching Bai Feifei, he can kill her, why bother to put her in a box. Then Happy King will not find out what's in it Flaws, if she wants to kill the Happy King, enter the bridal chamber, and try to do it as much as possible, why bother to add another thing to the snake." Panda Er said: "I really don't understand what you mentioned. What exactly is Mrs. Wang doing this for?" Shen Lang said: "She did this just to make the Happy King kill Bai Feifei with his own hands." Panda Er said: "Not bad." Shen Lang said: "Although she hates Happy King to the bone, but seeing that Happy King is going to marry another woman, she still can't help but feel jealous. If this jealous heart lasts a lifetime, it is inevitable that she will lose her reason." Panda'er clapped her hands and said: "That's right, the word "jealousy" is a fatal injury to women all over the world, even women like Mrs. Wang are no exception." Zhu Qiqi gave him a hard look, and said, "Do you think men can't be jealous?" Panda laughed and said, "Men are always better." Zhu Qiqi sneered: "As far as I know, if a man becomes jealous, he is much more jealous than a woman." Shen Lang said: "Madam Wang's original intention was to kill Joyful King to take revenge, but she has been so jealous all her life that she put this matter as a secondary priority, and instead became determined to destroy this marriage first, and to kill him first. Dead in vain." Panda Er said: "But she is unwilling to kill Bai Feifei without hesitation, she just wants to add another thing..." Zhu Qiqi sneered and said, "What do you know! She did this not only to torture Bai Feifei, but mainly to torture Happy King, to make Happy King suffer forever." Panda'er smiled wryly, "Men really don't understand women's feelings." Zhu Qiqi said: "If you understand women's minds, the sun will probably rise from the west." Shen Lang said: "Zhu Qiqi is right. She did this to make Happy King suffer, so she first revealed that Bai Feifei was his daughter, and then induced Happy King to kill Bai Feifei." He sighed, and continued: "In this way, if the Happy King really makes a move, and she exposes the secret, even if the Happy King may not be in pain all his life, what face will he have to rule the world again?" Zhu Qiqi said: "That's right, if a person really killed his daughter by mistake, he would be ashamed and thrown at home. If rumors come out in the future, what face does he have to rule the roost in front of others?" Panda Er sighed: "This kind of complicated and venomous scheme, I'm afraid only women can come up with it." Zhu Qiqi said loudly: "What can a woman do to you? If you say such a thing again, be careful that God will punish you to be a bachelor for the rest of your life, and you will not be able to marry a wife for the rest of your life." Panda stuck out his tongue and said with a smile: "Then I really wish for it." Wang Lianhua suddenly said: "This secret has finally been completely revealed at this moment. But there is still one thing that I still don't understand." Zhu Qiqi said: "I understand everything, is there anything else you don't understand?" Wang Lianhua said: "No matter what, this plan can be regarded as extremely thorough, without any loopholes; Mr. Bu's straightforward demeanor speaks, and there are no loopholes. But I don't know how the Happy King saw through it at that time." Shen Lang laughed and said: "This plan is not without flaws, and Bu Gongzhi's words are not without flaws either." Wang Lianhua said: "Oh?" Shen Lang said: "The first flaw in this plan is that Mrs. Wang shouldn't have made Bai Feifei look like herself..." Zhu Qiqi said: "By the way, I just don't understand why she would do this." Panda Er said: "Mrs. Wang did this to surprise Happy King first, to distract him, and then to make him..." Zhu Qiqi hurriedly said: "I see, she disguised Bai Feifei as herself, so naturally she wanted Happy Wang to suspect that the person in the box was really Mrs. Wang herself. When Happy Wang saw Mrs. Wang, she was naturally shocked." I'm also afraid that maybe they will kill her indiscriminately, and then the plan to replace her will be successful." Panda also rushed to say: "Besides, Happy King must be very happy when he sees that Mrs. Wang has fallen into his hands. He must be very relaxed and won't pay attention to other things." Shen Lang smiled and said: "That's right, these are all Madam Wang's original ideas. She is a wise person, and she is bound to make a mistake. That's why she made this fatal mistake." Zhu Qiqi said: "I think she is very clever in doing this, how can you say she is wrong?" Panda Er said: "I can't think of where she is wrong." Shen Lang smiled slightly and said: "Happy King and Mrs. Wang are not only husband and wife, but also partners. He naturally understands Mrs. Wang's martial arts skills very well, doesn't he?" Zhu Qiqi said: "Of course it is." Shen Lang said: "Then, let me ask you, how can a woman like Mrs. Wang leak her secret at will, and be overheard by Mr. Bu?" Zhu Qiqi lost his voice and said: "Ah, yes, this is indeed a loophole. Mr. Bu really shouldn't have said that." Shen Lang said: "Also, let me ask you again, how could a woman like Mrs. Wang fall into Bu Gongzhi's hands?" Panda Er sighed: "That's right, this is another loophole. Ten Bu Gongzhi will never touch one of Mrs. Wang's fingers." Shen Lang said: "So, Happy King doesn't have to think about it at all, and he can conclude that the one in the box is definitely not Mrs. Wang." Zhu Qiqi said: "Not bad." Shen Lang said: "Then, he will think, if the person in the box is not Mrs. Wang, how can he look so similar to Mrs. Wang? How can he know these secrets that others will never know?" Zhu Qiqi and Panda Er kept nodding their heads and said, "Not bad, not bad..." Shen Lang said: "It should be known that Mrs. Wang has not been around the Jianghu in recent years. It can be said that there are very few people who know her appearance, and no one knows the relationship between Mrs. Wang and Happy King." Panda nodded and said, "That's right, at least Bu Gongzhi will never know." Shen Lang said: "So, this will definitely not be directly caused by Bu Gong, nor will it be someone else, just because others don't know Madam Wang's appearance, nor do they know the relationship between Madam Wang and him, and they don't know what is involved. How can you pretend to be Mrs. Wang and use these secrets to deceive him?" Zhu Qiqi smiled and said: "Although this principle sounds complicated, it is actually very simple. How could I not remember it?" Shen Lang said: "So, in the final analysis, the happy king has concluded that this matter is definitely not caused by Bu Gongzhi, nor is it possible to be caused by others." Zhu Qiqi sighed: "A person like him will naturally understand this truth once he thinks about it." Shen Lang said: "It is impossible for someone else to do this, so who is doing it?" Zhu Qiqi said: "Of course there is only Madam Wang." Shen Lang said: "That's right! He will naturally think of Mrs. Wang immediately." Zhu Qiqi said: "But there is still..." Shen Lang interrupted her, and continued: "He thought of Mrs. Wang, and immediately thought, if Mrs. Wang is the mastermind of this matter, where is she at this moment?" Zhu Qiqi said: "Could it be that he could immediately guess that the bride is Mrs. Wang?" Shen Lang said: "Even if he can't guess it right away, he will immediately think of the late arrival of the bride, and then think of the master who sold the pollen, the bride..." He smiled slightly, and slowly continued: "Thinking of this, with the wisdom of the Happy King, will you still be unable to figure it out?" Wang Lianhua sighed, and said: "Your analysis is really careful, incisive, and reasonable. Even if you let Happy King himself say it, I'm afraid it's not as thoughtful and detailed as you." Zhu Qiqi smiled and said, "Isn't it strange that such an entangled and confusing matter can be understood by everyone after he talks about it in a nutshell?" Panda Er suddenly said: "This time, do you think Mrs. Wang and Bu Gongzhi can still escape?" Shen Lang said: "Since you and I can escape, they must also be able to escape." Zhu Qiqi said: "We were able to escape because of you, how could they compare to you." Wang Lianhua sighed: "What's more, Happy Wang Quan didn't notice us, so we can take advantage of the situation and leave, but they..." Zhu Qiqi breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "Whether they can escape or not, fortunately, it has nothing to do with us." Wang Lianhua was silent for a while, then suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Yes, whether they can escape or not, what does it matter to us? We should only think about how to get out of this desert at this moment." In the desert, it is extremely cold at night and extremely hot during the day, coupled with the scorching sun, wind and sand, lack of fresh water, and unfamiliar roads, you have to keep an eye out for poisonous snakes, beasts, and quicksand... This section of the journey is naturally extremely difficult. After walking like this for two days, all the people and horses were exhausted, and the desert was still endless. At this time, even Shen Lang couldn't help but secretly worried.Even if he is a superman, he cannot resist the forces of nature after all. The most comfortable among these people is Bai Feifei. Just because she is still unconscious up to this moment. In the evening of that day, Zhu Qiqi dipped some water with a cloth, moistened her lips, looked at her pale and haggard face, and couldn't help sighing: "Madam Wang used such a powerful drug." Panda Er and Shen Lang went to explore the way, leaving only Wang Lianhua with her. Wang Lianhua suddenly said coldly: "I'm afraid she won't wake up from now on, why are you wasting food and water?" Zhu Qiqi said angrily: "How dare you say such a thing, can you still be considered a human being?" Wang Lianhua smiled faintly and said: "You treat her like this, do you remember how she treated you before?" Zhu Qiqi said: "No matter how she treats me, she is at least a human being, a woman. I can't just let her die like this. Even if I give her all my share, it doesn't matter." Wang Lianhua smiled and said: "If you are dead and she is still alive, that would be wonderful. At that time, Shen Lang is afraid..." Zhu Qiqi jumped up and said loudly: "For a person like you, I wonder why Shen Lang didn't kill you!" Wang Lianhua said coldly: "Shen Lang doesn't kill me, that's why he's the smartest, otherwise..." Suddenly a person said: "Otherwise what?" Panda came striding back, eyes glowing in the dark. Wang Lianhua laughed and said, "Otherwise, I would have died long ago!" Panda stared at him, but he turned around, Panda really had nothing to do with him; at this time Shen Lang had also returned, Zhu Qiqi went up to meet him and asked, "Is there a way ahead?" Shen Lang shook his head with a sigh, but smiled again: "Don't worry, there will never be a road in the world that you can't get out of." After walking like this for another two days, even Shen Lang's smile could no longer cheer up Zhu Qiqi, and Bai Feifei was dying, almost turned into a living dead. The more economical their water consumption, the more exhausted their physical strength, so they took a rest as soon as possible.The only thing they can enjoy now is rest. It was another starry night, but at this moment, no one would praise the beauty of the stars anymore. Lying in Shen Lang's arms, Zhu Qiqi murmured: "Could it be that we're going the wrong way? The more we walk, the more we can't get out." The night was so quiet, Panda Er and Wang Lianhua had already fallen asleep. Shen Lang caressed her soft hair gently, and said: "The direction is never wrong, it's just..." Zhu Qiqi suddenly smiled again, and said: "It doesn't matter if you go wrong. As long as I'm by your side, even if I go to the ends of the earth, I'm willing." Shen Lang looked at her gentle smile, and then at Bai Feifei beside him who was still dazed, his heart was so confused that he couldn't speak. After a while, Zhu Qiqi finally sat up, looked at Bai Feifei's comatose state, and sighed: "If this goes on, we're fine, she's just afraid..." Shen Lang suddenly said: "Do you still hate her?" Zhu Qiqi shook her head, and said softly: "Why do I still hate her? Although she was hateful before, but now... now she is so pitiful. In fact, she has always been a poor girl." Shen Lang sighed: "Yes, she is indeed a poor girl..." Zhu Qiqi suddenly put his arms around Shen Lang's neck, choked up and said: "Sometimes...sometimes I really want to give you to her, because her life is full of hatred and loneliness, and the only one who can comfort her is you." Her choking has turned into a low cry, and she said: "But I really can't, I really can't bear you, Shen Lang, Shen Lang... will you blame me?" Shen Lang also hugged her tightly, and said with a soft smile: "Silly boy, how could I blame you, how could I blame you..." Looking up at the sky, he seemed to be asking, "Who is to blame for this?" Although he was smiling, who knew how bitter his heart was. In such a quiet night, under such a starry sky, he almost wanted to tell everything.He didn't say anything, because he really couldn't bear to hurt Zhu Qiqi. Although he had thousands of words in his heart, he just said: "It's getting late, let's sleep too." Yes, go to sleep. Tomorrow is another day. Maybe everything will change. If you have anything to say, save it until tomorrow. What exactly will happen tomorrow?Who in the world can know? The sun finally shines on the earth again. Panda woke up, just yawned, and suddenly froze. He suddenly realized that everything had changed. Most of Wang Lianhua's body was buried in the sand, her hair was disheveled, her face was smeared with mud, and her naked back was covered with blood. He looked like he had turned into a living ghost, but he still seemed to be asleep. He didn't seem to know anything about what happened to him. Looking at Shen Lang and Zhu Qiqi again, they were tied together with their backs facing each other, their buns were messed up, and it seemed that someone had cut off a section of their hair. And Panda himself... He only felt a splitting headache, his body was tied up, and he couldn't move.His skin was almost cracked by the scorching sun, and his clothes were almost stripped. The surprise of Panda'er was really serious: "What's going on? Could it be that he really ran into an evil spirit in the desert?" Even though he was brave in broad daylight, he still couldn't help shaking his whole body when he encountered such an unimaginable strange thing. 熊猫儿在沙上挣扎着，扭曲着。他终于又发觉两件事：马已不早了，干粮与水袋也不见了。马、粮食、水，这就等于是他们的生命。是谁夺去了他们的生命？ 他目光四下搜索。天色蔚蓝，白云片片，闷热得令人几乎窒息。四下百里内外，都决不会有什么人迹。是快活王？不会，决不会。若是快活王，决不会就这样放过他们的。 熊猫儿忍不住大呼道：“沈浪！快醒来，沈浪……” 他呼声突然在喉中梗住，他又赫然发现： 本在沈浪身旁，始终晕迷不醒的白飞飞，竟也已不见了。 沈浪也醒了。 他睁开眼睛，只瞧见面前的地上，痕迹零乱，似乎有人用石头在地上写过字，又胡乱划去。 他自然也已感觉到头脑的疼痛，四肢的麻木。他面上的肌肉，不禁起了一阵阵的扭曲，喃喃道：“沈浪呀沈浪，你又上了次大当。” 熊猫儿听见他的语声，大呼道：“沈浪，你醒来了么？你可瞧得见这情况，水没有了，马没有了，粮食没有了，白飞飞也不见了。” 沈浪长叹道：“白飞飞也走了么？” 熊猫儿道：“这究竟是怎么回事？老天，这究竟是怎么回事？” 沈浪道：“白飞飞，这自然是白飞飞。除了白飞飞还有谁？” 熊猫儿吃惊道：“白飞飞？你说这一切又是白飞飞做的手脚？” 沈浪惨笑道：“她人既已走了，难道你还看不出来？” 熊猫儿道：“她人虽已走了，但难道不可能也是别人将她绑走的……她一直晕迷不醒，简直已奄奄一息，又怎能做这手脚？” 沈浪喃喃道：“你我都未免太轻视了她。在经过那许多事后，你我竟还是不免轻视了她，这是为了什么？” 他苦笑接道：“这只因她实在太善于做作。她作出的模样，永远是教人只有怜悯她，同情她，而忘了本该提防着她的。” 熊猫儿道：“你说……难道她根本早已醒了，但故意装作晕迷不醒，难道她……” 这时朱七七也醒了，颤声道：“沈浪……沈浪，你在哪里？” 沈浪道：“七七……七七……你可受了伤？” 朱七七道：“好……好像没有……沈浪，你在我背后么？你也被绑起来了么？” 沈浪长叹道：“嗯。” 朱七七道：“这究竟是怎么回事？……呀，我面前还写得有字！” 沈浪急急道：“写的是什么？” 朱七七道：“我瞧瞧……这地上写的是点水之恩，涌泉以报，留你不死，任你双飞，生既不幸，绝情断恨，孤身远引，至死不见。” 她惊呼道：“这……这难道是白飞飞写的？” 沈浪长叹道：“正是她。” 朱七七道：“她走了……她一个人走了。她虽然一心想得到你，但到最后，还是没有将你抢走，却留下我，让我和你……和你……” 她语声渐渐哽咽，终于痛哭失声，道：“绝情断恨，至死不见……白飞飞呀白飞飞，你宁愿孤苦终老，也没有杀我！白飞飞呀白飞飞，我一直看错了你！你实在是个好人，我……我对不起你！我实在对不起你！” 熊猫儿道：“她若真的是好心的人，为何又要将咱们害成这模样？为何又要偷走咱们的粮食和水，带走咱们的马？” 沈浪长叹道：“她……她实在是个不可捉摸的女人！她的心意，真是谁也猜不透的。她究竟是善？是恶？只怕也永远没有人知道。” 熊猫儿默然半晌，也长叹道：“无论如何，她实在是个了不起的女人。她竟能始终装出晕迷不醒的样子，竟忍得住那要命的饿渴，连眼睛都不睁开。就只这一点，已是任何人都做不到的。白飞飞呀白飞飞，我实在不能不佩服你。” 沈浪苦笑道：“她这样做，只是要我们不再对她有防范之心。” 熊猫儿道：“但她既然已绝情断恨，万念俱灰，既然早已存心一走了之，为什么不好好地走，却要在临走前还将咱们害一下？” 沈浪黯然道：“这或者是她不愿在那种情况下与咱们相见，宁可咬紧牙关，忍受百般痛苦，也要挣回面子，要我们知道，她毕竟是强者。” 朱七七幽幽道：“这也或许是她不能当面和你别离，更不愿让你瞧不起她……一个女人，是宁愿吃任何苦，也不愿被她所爱的人瞧不起的，尤其是她这种女人。” 熊猫儿苦笑道：“有谁会瞧不起她？连沈浪都在她手里栽过几次跟头，还有谁敢瞧不起她？普天之下，除了她之外，又有谁能令沈浪吃亏上当？” 朱七七突然大声道：“沈浪吃她的亏，上她的当，并不是不如她。” 熊猫儿道：“那是为了什么？” 朱七七道：“这只因沈浪始终在同情她，怜悯她，一心只想救她，帮助她，而没有想害她，也没有想对付她，否则就算有十个白飞飞，又怎能害得到沈浪？” 熊猫儿叹道：“我本来以为你只是喜欢沈浪，并不了解他，如今我才知道，最了解沈浪的还是你，咱们都不如你。” 朱七七悠悠道：“这只因我全心全意都放在沈浪身上，自然比你们都了解他。” 熊猫儿大笑道：“沈浪呀沈浪，你有这样的红颜知己，这一辈子总算没有白活了。” 突听王怜花嗄声道：“此时此刻，你还笑得出，我总算佩服你。”他嘴里像是被塞了沙土，连话都说不清了。 熊猫儿道：“我为何笑不出？至少我没有被人活埋在地下。” 王怜花道：“我算什么？但咱们无所不知，无所不能的大英雄沈浪，怎么也被人像死猪般捆起来，我实在有点不懂了。” 沈浪也不着恼，淡淡道：“你若是稍微机警些，咱们也不至于变得如此模样。” 王怜花冷笑道：“这难道还能怪我不成？” 沈浪道：“你可知道咱们怎会被人捆住还毫无所觉？这只因白飞飞昨夜已在咱们所喝的水袋里下了迷药。你可知道她是什么时候下的迷药？那就是我叫你留守在这里的时候。你既然将水看得比别人性命都重要，又为何不睁开眼睛瞧着？” 王怜花将嘴里的土咬得沙沙作响，却说不出话来。 熊猫儿道：“别的且不管，咱们此刻该怎么办呢？我手脚全没有半分力气，连这绳子也挣不开，再这样下去，只怕要被晒焦了。” 他干笑了一声，道：“烤焦了的猫，不知滋味如何，至少我自己是尝不到的了。” 王怜花冷笑道：“有趣，这话当真十分有趣。” “呸”的一声，将嘴里一口沙子重重唾在地上。 日光，已越来越强烈，晒得沙子都发了烫。 熊猫儿已被晒得头晕眼花，绑在他身上的绳子，也似在渐渐收缩，勒得他直疼入骨子里。 他嘴唇也已被晒得裂了开来，喃喃道：“白飞飞呀白飞飞，你没有杀死我，我并不感激你。这样岂非比一刀杀死我还狠毒百倍？你没有杀死我们，原来只是要折磨我们。” 王怜花叹道：“我虽然也自知这一生绝对不得好死，却也未想到会被太阳活活晒死。这样的死法当真比任何死法都难受得多。” 沈浪微微一笑，道：“无论怎么样死，都不会很舒服的。” 王怜花瞪大眼睛，道：“到了现在，你还笑得出？” 熊猫儿大声道：“能看到你这种人被活活晒死，为何不可笑……我也要大笑……哈哈……哈哈……” 他用尽气力，大笑了几声，怎奈唇焦舌枯，又怎能笑得出？那笑声听来当真比哭声还要难听十倍。 王怜花道：“好，你笑吧，用力笑吧，拼命笑吧……你若再这样大笑几声，只怕就要让我瞧着你先死了。” 沈浪道：“他不会死的。” 王怜花道：“他不会死，难道只有我会死？” 沈浪道：“你若肯少说几句话，留些力气，也不会死的。” 王怜花那被晒得发黑发焦的脸上，又不禁发了光。 他虽然对沈浪又嫉又恨，但沈浪说的话，他却不能不听，不能不相信——一个怕死的人听到自己还能活下去时，那神情当真谁也形容不出。 王怜花连眼睛上的肉都颤抖了起来，道：“你……你说咱们还有救星？” 沈浪道：“自然有的。” 王怜花道：“黄沙万里，咱们这几人在沙漠中，简直就像蚂蚁似的，纵然有十万人要来救咱们，也未必能找得着……何况，又有谁会来救咱们？又有谁知道咱们已遇难？这……这简直是毫无可能。” 他一面咳嗽，一面说，这番话说完了，已是全身脱力，只因他嘴里虽说不可能，心中却是充满希冀之情。 他就希望沈浪将他的话全部驳倒。 沈浪道：“自然有人知道咱们已遇难的。” 王怜花喘着气道：“谁……除非是那妖女。” 沈浪道：“正是白飞飞。” 王怜花怔了怔，拼命笑道：“她难道还会来救咱们……哈哈，原来沈浪也已疯了，原来沈浪也已疯了。” 这疯狂的笑声，听得朱七七、熊猫儿全身发冷。 他们实也不禁认为沈浪神智已不清，就算打死他们，他们也不会相信白飞飞会来救他们的。 沈浪叹道：“她的脾气，你们难道还不了解？她若要咱们死，又怎肯不在旁边亲眼瞧着咱们受尽折磨，到死为止？” 朱七七道：“她只怕还没有这么狠的心。” 王怜花却大喜道：“不错，她若要咱们的命，必定会在旁边瞧着咱们死的，如今既然走了，想必是算定咱们必有救星。” 熊猫儿忍不住叹道：“救星？哪里来的救星？” 沈浪道：“她生长在沙漠中，对沙漠上的一切，都必定比我们熟悉的多，说不定早已瞧出有人要往这里来，也说不定还留下线索要别人找来。” 王怜花叹道：“这次我若得救，看来真该做几件好事了。” 沈浪道：“只要你莫忘了这句话，我担保你死不了的。” 这希望虽然渺茫，但渺茫的希望，总比没有希望好得多，于是大家再不说话，都希望留些精力，支持到救星来的时候。 这时每个人的眼皮都已越来越重了，都恨不能痛快地睡一觉，但每个人却也都知道，自己这一睡，便再也不会复醒。 也不知过了多久，突然间，沈浪大呼道：“来了……来了……” 大家精神一震，顺着他目光瞧去，只见万里无云的碧空下，突然扬起了一片黄尘，几乎掩没了自己。 接着，蹄声骤响，如战鼓雷鸣，动地而来。 熊猫儿动容道：“沙漠之中，哪里来的千军万马？” 沈浪微微一笑道：“你莫非忘了龙卷风？” 话声未了，只见四匹健马首先急骤而至，马上人全身白衣白风氅，正是横行大漠的龙卷风属下。 这四人四骑想是已瞧见了沈浪等人，打了个呼哨，突又纵马驰去，王怜花忍不住焦虑之情失声道：“喂……你们怎的又走了，难道见死不救么？” 沈浪笑道：“你莫要着急，这不过是龙卷风的前哨探子，如今发现了我们，不敢自行定夺，是回去通知去了。” 王怜花一喜，突又一惊，道：“龙卷风在大漠是个杀人不眨眼的强盗，咱们若是落在他手里，只怕也……” 沈浪道：“龙卷风善恶我虽不知，但你莫忘了，他还有个神秘的军师。” 王怜花道：“军师又怎样，难道你认得？” 沈浪微笑道：“若我猜的不错，他实是我的故人。” 这时远处又有数骑驰来，当先一骑，黑衣黑马，黑巾蒙面，只露出一双充满了诡异厉光的眸子。 这黑衣骑士到了近前，突然飞身掠下，站在那里，眼睛眨也不眨地瞧着沈浪，竟像是吓呆了。 沈浪颤声笑道：“金兄，金无望，是你么？” 黑衣骑士身子陡然一震，失声道：“你……你怎知……” 沈浪大笑道：“除了金无望外，还有谁能对快活王的一切了如指掌？除了金无望外，还有谁能令快活王连连失利？” 黑衣骑士突然扑过去，拥住了沈浪，两人又哭又笑，就连王怜花都不禁瞧得眼睛湿湿，朱七七与熊猫儿更是早已热泪盈眶。 过了半晌，金无望长叹道：“沈浪呀沈浪，你怎的落得如此模样。” 沈浪笑道：“先莫说我，先谈谈你。” 金无望默然半晌，笑道：“不是我对快活王不仁，实是他对我不义。我残废归去后，他将我视为废物，竟要将我除去。幸好我早已知道他的恶毒，早已有了脱走之计。那时我已发誓，必定要让他知道，金无望不是废物……” 沈浪大笑道：“如今你的确已证明了此点。那时他故意伪装一封书信，说是你留下的，我就知道那其中必定有诈。” 金无望亦自仰天而笑，得意的笑意中，竟有些萧索之意，仰天狂笑了半晌，缓缓顿住笑声，叹道：“如今我虽已将他击倒，但又如何？人生百年，转瞬便过，无论胜败，到死了还不是只落得一扦黄土而已。” 熊猫儿忍不住道：“你已杀了他？” 金无望道：“上次我一击未成，这次又集中人马，再次挥军进攻，哪知快活王的巢穴，竟已变为一片瓦砾，尸首遍地，且俱已烧成枯骨，其中有两具尸骨，纠缠在一起，血肉虽已化为飞灰，但那三枚戒指却还在……” 他凄声大笑道：“又有谁能想到，纵横一世的快活王，竟葬身于火窟之中！” 听到这里，大家都已知道和快活王纠缠在一起的尸骨，必是王夫人。 沈浪忍不住长叹一声，喃喃道：“情孽纠缠不死不休，唉，这又何苦……何苦？” 话未说完，王怜花竟突然放声痛哭，这一点父母儿女的天性，到了最后，终于还是发作了出来。 金无望厉声道：“王怜花，我本已立心杀你，但瞧你这一场痛哭，可见你天良还未丧尽，就凭此点今日我再救你一次。” 当下他放出众人，突又瞧着沈浪，道：“快活王看来已是必死无疑，你竟未能与他真个交手，你不觉得有些遗憾么？” 沈浪淡淡一笑，道：“人性本愚，是人才难免相争，但上者斗心斗智，下者斗力。我与快活王虽然彼此都一心想将对方除去，但也不知怎的，彼此竟似有几分相惜。你想我若与他真个抡拳动脚，厮杀一场，岂非太无趣了么。” 金无望大笑道：“沈浪之洒脱，当真无人能及。” 朱七七道：“却不知你是如何会来救咱们的。” 金无望道：“这说来倒也不是什么奇事，我自快活王巢穴退军之后，本不经此，谁知昨夜竟突然接着一封书信，信上附着地图，叫咱们到这里来救你们。我将信将疑，又想来，又怕被骗……幸好我终于还是决定来了。” 朱七七幽幽叹道：“最了解白飞飞的，毕竟还是沈浪。”她紧紧握着沈浪的手，像是生怕沈浪突又逃走似的。 熊猫儿道：“但她又怎知金兄便在左近？” 沈浪道：“她一路来到这里，想必早已瞧见金兄行军时的尘头，那时我等纵然瞧见，也只当是沙漠中的风沙而已，但她对沙漠上的任何变化，却十分熟悉，是蹄尘，是风沙，她自然是一眼便可瞧出的。” 朱七七、熊猫儿、金无望、王怜花竟不约而同道：“看来当真是什么事也瞒不过沈浪。”四人同时张口，同时闭口，不禁同时相视一笑。 沈浪苦笑道：“你们平时说这话，我听来虽然受之有愧，还不至于脸红，但今天我这般模样，你们再说这话，岂非要叫我钻入地下么？” 众人忍不住大笑，只听远远有人大呼道：“名震天下的沈浪在哪里？咱们能不能够见见？” 呼声一声接着一声，如浪潮卷来，响彻大漠。 金无望挽起沈浪的手，大笑道：“你纵想钻入地下，别人也不会让你钻进去的，只是……” 他上下瞧了沈浪两眼，又道：“沈浪今日居然也败了一次，别人想必都要奇怪的。” 沈浪面上又泛起了他那潇洒、懒散、不可捉摸的笑容，淡淡笑道：“无论任何人，都有失败的时候。只要他们胜利时莫要太得意，纵然失败一次，也就算不了什么了……” (End of the book)
