Chapter 5 The fifth round of life and death

The owner of the Murder Mansion dug a hole, gently put the cat's body down, piled up flowers all around, and sprinkled the soil one by one, muttering in his mouth: "Others say cats have nine lives, why do you There is only one... poor child, did you lie to me, or did I lie to you?" Yu Peiyu looked at his short, stooped figure, and his childish but kind behavior, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. The murderous owner jumped up in surprise, and said loudly, "Who?" Yu Peiyu hurried out and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I have no malicious intentions."

The murderous owner stared at him nervously, and said, "You... who are you?" Yu Peiyu tried her best not to scare him, and said with a smile, "I'm also a guest here, and my name is Yu Peiyu." He actually felt that there was no need to hide anything from him, because there must be a great and kind heart in this deformed and short body. He is so kind to cats, how can he harm people. The pale and delicate face of the owner of the murderous villa, which seemed to have not yet fully matured, finally settled down completely, smiled, and said, "You are the guest, but I am the host. My name is Ji Zanghua."

Yu Peiyu said: "I know." Ji Zanghua opened his eyes wide and said, "You already know?" Yu Peiyu smiled and said, "I have already met Madam and Ling Ai." Ji Zanghua lowered her eyes and said with a wry smile, "It seems that many people see them first before seeing me." He suddenly grabbed Yu Peiyu's hand and said loudly: "But don't listen to them, my wife is not normal, very abnormal, she is a lunatic, and my eldest daughter is a shrew, no one dares to provoke her , even I dare not. Although they are beautiful, their hearts are very poisonous, next time you see them, you must stay away."

Yu Peiyu really didn't expect him to say such words to his wife and daughter, and couldn't help being startled. Is what he said true?is fake? He seemed to have no reason to lie to him. Ji Zanghua tremblingly said: "I said this for your own good, otherwise how could I scold my relatives." Yu Peiyu finally let out a long sigh, and said, "Thank you, owner." He paused for a while, and couldn't help but asked again: "But there is still a girl who can speak bird language..." Only then did Ji Zanghua smile, and said: "You mean Lingyan, she is the only one who will never harm anyone, she...she is an idiot."

Yu Peiyu was stunned, and lost her voice: "Bai...idiot." Among the trees, there was a rustling of footsteps. Ji Zanghua grabbed his hand and said with a change of color: "I'm afraid they are here, you must not let them see you, otherwise you will never want to live again, come on, come with me." After listening to his words, Yu Peiyu thought of the terrifying magic well and the hands strangling his neck, and suddenly felt that her previous reasons for defending her were too weak to be refuted. I saw Ji Zanhua pulling him to turn left and right among the trees, and came to a rockery. Passing through the middle of the rockery, there was a small pavilion, which was full of dust and cobwebs, and the writing paper on all sides had turned yellow. .

In the center of the pavilion, there was an old futon. Standing in this small pavilion, two people felt that it was very crowded, but Ji Zanghua breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is the safest place, no one will come here." .” Yu Peiyu had never seen such a small room in her life, and she couldn't help asking, "What kind of place is this?" Ji Zanhua said: "This is where my father used to sit and chant scriptures in his later years. Since he was fifty years old, he has stayed here for twenty years without leaving home." Yu Peiyu said in amazement: "Twenty years of staying at home... But here I can't even stand up straight, let alone lie down, why is your lord suffering so much?"

Ji Zanghua sighed sadly: "My late father felt that killing was too heavy when he was young, so he tried his best to repent in his later years. His heart is as calm as still water, so what is the physical torture?" Yu Peiyu sighed and said: "He is an old man, he is indeed a remarkable person." When he thought that Mrs. Ji actually said that the ancestors of the Ji family were all lunatics, he couldn't help but smiled wryly and shook his head. Ji Zanghua patted his hand and said, "You can hide here at ease. Can’t run out, there’s already too much bloodshed in this manor, I really don’t want to see people shed blood again.”

Yu Peiyu watched him go out, and sighed secretly: "His wife is crazy, his daughter is an idiot, and he is a dwarf, always being bullied and teased by others. Isn't his life much more unfortunate than mine, and his He is still so benevolent and kind to others, if I change him, will I have such a great heart?" There was thick dust on the ground, Yu Peiyu sighed and sat on the futon, there was no wall in this small pavilion, and the four sides were separated by paper lattice doors and windows, it must be very difficult in severe winter and windy days. There was a constant sound of running water outside.

The wind blows the leaves, and it is also ringing. Looking around, Yu Peiyu felt that there seemed to be patterns under the dust on the ground. He tore off a piece of his skirt and wiped it, and a picture of gossip appeared. Those of "Xiantian Wuji" are no strangers to Qimen gossip. The son of Yu Peiyu's famous father can be called a leader in this way. It moved suddenly, and a round crypt appeared. It was dark and deep in the crypt. Yu Peiyu couldn't help but tentatively walked on. At this moment, suddenly, more than 20 polished long swords pierced through the gates on all sides like lightning.

Yu Peiyu was heartbroken, if he hadn't found the gossip map on the ground, if he wasn't proficient in the Qimen gossip technique, if he would still be sitting on the futon. So at this moment, his body has become a honeycomb, and each of these twenty or so fine steel long swords must pass through his body. What a coincidence this is, and what a thrill it is, between life and death, there is really no time to spare, his life is simply taken back. But at this moment, he didn't even dare to think about it, and quickly covered the crypt with the futon. Only someone outside the pavilion said: "Huh? Why does it seem like there is no one?"

Then, there was a "bang", and the doors and windows on all sides were shattered and opened. The small pavilion was surrounded by disciples of Kunlun and Diancang, all of them said in unison, "Why did he escape?" Taoist Baihe said in a deep voice, "How did he get wind of it?" Another person said: "He will never go far, let's chase." With the sound of the wind blowing on the sleeves of their clothes, these people all left again. Yu Peiyu waited for a long time before she dared to push the futon away, and when she saw that there was no one around, she dared to climb up quietly. The sound of running water was still ringing, and the sound of wind blowing leaves was still ringing, it was the sound of wind and water that covered up the movement of those people when they came, so Yu Peiyu didn't notice it at all. But how did they come here. How could she know that Yu Peiyu was here. Yu Peiyu was still in shock, and found that this "murder village" was full of crazy people, and there was hardly a single person who could be trusted. So, at this moment, where should he go? At this moment, his hair is disheveled and his eyes are bloodshot. The gentle and elegant boy in the past has now become like a wild beast, a wounded beast. He no longer has the confidence to fight anyone, and he no longer has the strength to fight anyone. Suddenly someone called softly: "Young Master Ye...Ye Yuquan!" Yu Peiyu thought for a while, and then realized that this was calling herself. Although he couldn't recognize who the voice was, who else called him by his name besides their mother and daughter? Without thinking about it, he went into the burrow again and built a futon. You can't see your fingers in the crypt. Although he felt that the crypt seemed huge, he didn't dare to move around casually, he just leaned there. After a long time, he fell asleep in a daze. Suddenly, the light came straight down and the futon had been removed. Yu Peiyu looked up in shock, and saw that pale, delicate and kind face. At this moment, this face seemed to be both surprised and happy, and she sighed: "Thank God you are finally here." Yu Peiyu was not at all happy, she gritted her teeth and said, "Are you still coming to harm me?" Ji Zanghua stroked her chest and said, "It's all my fault. When I brought you here, my wife saw her. She must have thought of this and brought the murderers from Kunlun and Diancang." Yu Peiyu sneered, "How can you convince me?" Ji Zanghua said: "If I betrayed you, why don't you bring them here now." Yu Peiyu just jumped out and said apologetically, "I blamed you." Ji Zanghua kicked the futon back to its place, pulled him, and said, "Now is not the time to apologize, let's go." Suddenly someone laughed wildly and said, "You still want to go!" Yu Peiyu's soul flew away, "Swipe, swipe, swipe!" The three long swords stabbed over like lightning. Ji Zanghua shouted: "Stop, stop, you can't..." But the whistling long sword ignored him at all, two bloody mouths had been cut on Yu Peiyu's body, and the disciples of Kunlun and Diancang had surrounded him heavily. He dashed left and right like a beast with his bare hands, and his body was covered in blood in a blink of an eye. Taoist Baihe said sharply: "Keep his mouth alive, I want to ask his confession." Yu Peiyu dodged the two swords and punched him directly. There was a loud "bang", the pillar of the small pavilion was broken by his punch, and the beams of the roof collapsed. He picked up a pillar and swung it wildly. Amid the exclamation, one of the disciples of Diancang had been beaten to the point that his breastbone was broken, and the long swords in the hands of the other two were also blown away by him. Taoist Baihe shouted loudly: "This kid is not human at all, he is going to die." Yu Peiyu spun around, swinging the beams and pillars as thick as a sea bowl like a windmill, as long as it is a body of flesh and blood, no one can beat it. Ji Zanghua stood far away, also seemed to be petrified, and couldn't help muttering: "What a great strength, what a frightening strength..." The sword light flickered, and it was unstoppable. But Yu Peiyu couldn't see anything in front of her eyes, and couldn't hear anything clearly in her ears, she just swung the pillar crazily, only to see him suddenly let go—— The pillar weighing more than a hundred catties, carrying a force of tens of thousands of catties, shot straight out like an arrow. A Kunlun Taoist took the lead, and the pillar as thick as a sea bowl went straight through his chest and abdomen. He was not dead yet, his shrill cry resounded through the sky, and bright red blood splashed out in all directions. The others couldn't help being frightened, and stepped aside. Yu Peiyu had already rushed out following the pillar, he couldn't see the road in front of him, he just ran desperately, going through the trees and flowers. His body was covered with thorns from flowers and thorns from trees, but the shouting behind him gradually faded away, and the gray-white strange house suddenly appeared in front of him. "House of death!" Isn't the grave the best hiding place. Yu Peiyu rushed over. Suddenly, the sword light was like lightning, blocking his way. A woman's voice yelled, "If you dare to enter this room, I will kill you!" Yu Peiyu swayed, only a vague shadow could be seen in front of her eyes, it seemed to have long hair, a white robe, and bright eyes... He finally recognized her as Ji Zanghua's eldest daughter, the goshawk in the desert. He said with a wry smile: "It would be best to die by your hands, at least you are not a lunatic..." He was completely out of strength, and he passed out again. ※※※ There was no lamp in the room, and it was very dark. When Yu Peiyu woke up, she immediately recognized that this was Mrs. Ji's boudoir. Then, he knew that he didn't wake up, but someone woke him up. Although there was no one in the room at this moment, the heavy door had been pushed open with a "squeak". A short figure came in, it was the murderous village owner Ji Zanhua, a dwarf who didn't know whether he was kind or vicious. Yu Peiyu couldn't help shaking, and tremblingly said: "I have no grievances with you, why do you want to kill me?" Ji Zanghua walked to his bed, bowed her head and said, "I'm sorry for you. I wanted to save you, but I ended up harming you... I really didn't know that those people were following me all the time." Yu Peiyu said: "Since that's the case, you should go out now." Ji Zanghua said: "No, I can never leave you in their hands." Yu Peiyu smiled bitterly: "But I was saved by them." Ji Zanghua sighed and said: "Young man, what do you know, they saved you, just to torture you slowly, and want you to die slowly in their hands." Yu Peiyu shuddered and said, "She...why do they do this?" Ji Zanhua said: "You really don't know?" Yu Peiyu said: "I'm really puzzled." Ji Zanhua said leisurely: "My wife hates Yu the most. Do you think she doesn't know your surname is Yu?" Yu Peiyu lost her voice: "Ah... I forgot..." At this point, he no longer had any doubts, struggling to get out of bed, Ji Zanghua rubbed his hands anxiously, and said, "Help me quickly." Suddenly, a person came in with a white robe and long hair. It was the eagle girl. She walked in silently, stared coldly at Ji Zanhua, there was no family affection in her eyes, only resentment and disgust, and said coldly: "Get out!" Ji Zanghua jumped up and shouted: "Ji Lingfeng, don't you forget that I am your father, can't you be more polite to me?" He was furious, gesticulating, as if he had suddenly turned into a lunatic, and his childish face suddenly became indescribably ferocious and evil. Yu Peiyu was stupefied by this change, but Ji Lingfeng still stood there straight. Not only was she not afraid, but her gaze became colder, and she said word by word: "Are you going out?" Ji Zanghua clenched her fists and stared at her fiercely, as if she wanted to swallow her up, but Ji Lingfeng still stared at him coldly. The father and daughter seem to have deep-seated hatred, you stare at me, I stare at you, I don't know how long it has passed, Ji Zanghua suddenly let out a long breath, the whole person softened, giggled and said "Good girl, don't be angry. If you get angry, it will be even more sad for a father. If you tell me to go out, I will go out." He actually staggered out, and his dwarf-like body seemed even more humble. As he walked, he couldn't help muttering: "It's really changed these days. Daughters are not afraid of Lao Tzu, but Lao Tzu I'm afraid of my daughter." Yu Peiyu really didn't expect that he would be startled away by her own daughter, she was surprised and surprised, and struggled to get up from the bed. Ji Lingfeng said coldly, "What are you doing down here? Go back to bed." Yu Peiyu said: "I... I don't want to disturb you here, I want to say goodbye." Ji Lingfeng sneered and said, "After listening to that dwarf, you thought I was going to kill you?" Yu Peiyu said: "He...he is your father after all." Ji Lingfeng's indifferent face suddenly became agitated, and hissed: "He is not my father! No! No! No..." Her hands holding the sleeves of her clothes gradually twisted and convulsed, and there was Ji Zanghua on her face. Crazy look. Yu Peiyu looked at her in surprise, after a while, her expression finally returned to calm, her gaze became as cold as an eagle again, she looked at Yu Peiyu and said, "Do you think he is a good person?" Although Yu Peiyu did not admit it, she did not deny it. Ji Lingfeng laughed again suddenly, and said, "It's strange why so many people are deceived by him, fall into his tricks, and think he is a good person without knowing it until they are killed." Yu Peiyu said: "I have no grievances with him, why does he want to kill me?" Ji Lingfeng said: "No injustice or enmity? Hmph, do you know why this place is full of carnage? Do you know why life becomes so despicable here?" Yu Peiyu said: "I...don't know." Ji Lingfeng's slender fingers twitched again, and hissed, "It's just because he likes to kill people and die. He likes to watch life being destroyed in his hands. The worse others die, the happier he is." Yu Peiyu stood there stunned, feeling a chill run down her spine. The husband, wife, father and daughter of this family seemed to be full of resentment, secretly hating and cursing each other, and he didn't know whose words to believe. Naturally, Ji Lingfeng could see his expression, and said with a sneer, "It's up to you to believe these words or not, it has nothing to do with me." Yu Peiyu murmured: "I... I don't believe it, I just think that if a person is so kind to cats and dogs, how can he be so cruel to others." Ji Lingfeng frowned and said, "Will he be kind to cats and dogs?" Yu Peiyu said: "I saw him bury a dead cat's body with my own eyes. He didn't know I was there at the time, so he obviously didn't do it for me on purpose." A strange smile appeared on the corner of Ji Lingfeng's mouth, and he said leisurely, "But do you know who killed that cat?" Yu Peiyu said: "Who?" Ji Lingfeng said: "It's him." Yu Peiyu couldn't help feeling a chill in her heart, and said in a broken voice, "His own?" Ji Lingfeng sneered and said: "When the flowers are in full bloom, he will also pick the flowers and crush them, and then bury them well. Whether it is flowers or trees, cats or dogs, or people, as long as other lives If you live well, he can't bear it, but if that life dies, he will immediately stop holding grudges, only by dying can he gain his kindness, if you die, he will also bury you alive." Yu Peiyu couldn't help shivering and couldn't speak anymore. Ji Lingfeng said: "The underground of this manor house is almost all corpses that he killed and buried with his own hands. If you don't believe me, you might as well dig it up anywhere and have a look." Yu Peiyu felt sick for a while, and hissed: "I just want to go, and the farther I go, the better." Ji Lingfeng said coldly: "It's a pity that you can't leave even if you want to." Just as Yu Peiyu stood up, she sat down on the bed again with a "poof". Ji Lingfeng said: "If you want to survive, you have to listen to me, otherwise you can just go, I will never stop you." She stepped aside and gave way. The door is open. But Yu Peiyu didn't know whether she should go out?It's better to stay here, he looked at the open door and didn't know what to do for a while. Ji Lingfeng looked at him coldly, and said slowly: "You don't have to worry about someone breaking in, no matter how courageous Ji Zanhua is, he wouldn't dare to bring anyone here, I have my own means to blackmail him, and I also have ways to protect you. " Yu Peiyu finally stood up and said, "You protect me?" Ji Lingfeng said coldly: "Just don't worry, with me around, you will never die." Yu Peiyu said slowly: "That's right, right now, this is indeed the only safe place, but some people would rather risk their lives than ask for protection." Ji Lingfeng sneered, "But you are not that kind of person." Yu Peiyu smiled lightly and said, "I am not?" Taking a deep breath, he strode out. No matter how sad and angry he is, his words are always gentle and peaceful, and he is never willing to be rude in front of others. If others think that he is weak and cowardly, it is wrong. Ji Lingfeng couldn't help being startled, and said, "Are you really going to die?" Yu Peiyu walked out the door without looking back. Ji Lingfeng said loudly: "You have nowhere to go, why are you trying to be brave?" Yu Peiyu turned her head and said slowly: "Thank you for your concern, but I have my own place to go." Ji Lingfeng sneered and said, "Okay, you go, anyway, whether you live or die has nothing to do with me." Even though she said so, until Yu Peiyu had gone far, she was still staring at him in a daze. ※※※ Yu Peiyu fainted for half a day, and now it was dusk again. Every time he lost his strength and fell into a coma, he thought it was hard to hold on anymore, but when he woke up, he immediately regained his strength. This was not entirely because of his extraordinary physique. relation. At this time, he leaped into the garden in the evening, and his spirit was revived. He bent down and walked through the trees. Obviously, no one else would have thought that he had the courage to break out, so they didn't send anyone to watch him in the garden, let alone No matter who wants to avoid human eyes and ears in such a gloomy and vast garden, it is not difficult. But he can't even think about breaking out. Looking out from the cover of the leaves, there are faint figures flickering around the garden. Under every tree and every shadow, there seems to be a crisis hidden. Yu Peiyu ran around, wanting to find the dilapidated hut, because he only felt that in this "murder village", only old man Gao could be relied on. But the garden was dark and overgrown, and he couldn't tell the direction. After going around countless times, he suddenly found himself in front of the magical "Paper Pavilion" among the rockery and flowing water. Although the corpses on the ground had been removed, But the remnants of the battle are still there, and that scene of thrilling bloody battle seems to appear before his eyes again. Yu Peiyu turned her head and left, but after taking two steps, she stopped suddenly. Since Ji Zanghua had found him out of the secret cave under the Zhi Pavilion, she never thought that he would return there again, wouldn't it be the safest place. Yu Peiyu really had nowhere to go, thinking of this now; without any hesitation, she turned around and entered the paper pavilion again, dragging the futon aside and getting in. You can't see your fingers in the crypt, Yu Peiyu is panting while leaning on the cold stone wall, what is hidden in the boundless darkness in front of her eyes? His breathing gradually calmed down, but this question made him more and more frightening. He couldn't help but search forward. Suddenly, he touched a person. Someone was waiting for him hiding in the darkness. In the darkness, it seemed that this person was sitting there, wearing linen clothes. Yu Peiyu's heart almost stopped beating, and she said in a trembling voice, "You... who are you?" The man didn't move, let alone answer. Yu Peiyu was dripping with cold sweat, clinging to the stone wall, moving slowly to the side, hissing: "Who are you? What do you want to hide here?" There was still no movement in the darkness, but this deathly silence was even more terrifying. Yu Peiyu groped for Shibi's palm, covered in cold sweat, and moved inch by inch, her feet seemed to be dragging a heavy iron chain. Suddenly his fingers touched something cold, which turned out to be a copper lamp. A piece of the stone wall was recessed, and the copper lamp was embedded there. There were actually two flints beside the lamp. Yu Peiyu quickly snatched the flints in his hand. The lamp oil was not dry, but his palms kept trembling. Get out of the fire. Yu Peiyu took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "Now that the flint is in my hand, even if you don't speak, as long as the fire is shining, I will know who you are. Why don't you tell me now." These words are of course useless, but Yu Peiyu is just using his own voice to strengthen his courage, and when he speaks out, his mind has gradually calmed down. With a sound of "cha", he finally lit the fire and lit the lamp. In the flash of the fire, he saw a small old man sitting there with his legs crossed and his eyes closed. His beard and hair were already pale, and he was wearing a light yellow sackcloth. His face was so dry that there was no trace of blood, and he seemed to be vaguely similar to Ji Zanhua, but he was colder and more gloomy than Ji Zanhua. Yu Peiyu's hands and feet were cold, and she said, "You...are you Ji Zanghua's father? Are you still alive?" The old man didn't move from head to toe, even his beard and hair didn't move. Under the flickering firelight, he looked really indescribably creepy and terrifying. Yu Peiyu gritted her teeth, braved up her courage and walked over, and suddenly found that something was wrong with the old man's beard and hair, and when she touched it, it was actually made of wax. The old man turned out to be nothing more than a wax figure. Yu Peiyu couldn't help laughing bitterly, but after thinking about it, she couldn't help but wonder: "It must be the wax figure of Ji Zanghua's father, but how could it be hidden in this secret cave?" He searched further, and saw that there was a secret passage in front of the crypt, it was so dark that the bottom could not be seen, and he did not know where it led. The crypt has a radius of two zhang. Besides the wax figure, there is actually a small bed. There is a small wooden cabinet next to the bed. On it are some cups, pots, and books. The dust has already accumulated half an inch. Although these are common daily objects, finding these things in this uninhabited secret cave is even more mysterious. In order to be forced by others, or to gain fame, he pretended to be reciting scriptures and confessing in that paper pavilion, but he actually slept under it. In order to hide it from his eyes and ears, he made this wax figure again. Put this wax figure in the paper pavilion, since others dare not come in to disturb it, if they look at it from a distance, they will naturally think that it is him sitting in the pavilion.” This analysis is not only reasonable, but also reasonable. Yu Peiyu herself is very satisfied, but she can't help but sigh, some things that seem extremely sacred, but the truth is so ridiculous. He put the copper lamp on the small cabinet, and couldn't help flipping through the books, but they were just legendary books, not any martial arts secrets. Yu Peiyu felt a little disappointed again, and suddenly saw a few plain notes sandwiched in a book, and the words written on them were some erotic words, and they looked like women's handwriting. Yu Peiyu is proficient in both civil and military, and at a glance, she can see that the meaning of the words is full of lovesickness, sorrow and hatred. Obviously, it is a woman who expresses her lovesickness to her lover with the meaning of poetry. The wax figure was thin and small, with a strange appearance. Could it be that a person like this would also be a romantic seed, and could there be a girl who admired him so much. Yu Peiyu shook his head with a wry smile, put down the book, and suddenly saw a brocade pouch under the bed, and he couldn't help picking it up again. In the brocade pouch, fell a piece of jade. It is "Xiantian Wuji", and the inscription on the back is actually the word "Yu". This jade is surprisingly a treasure in Yu Peiyu's family. Isn't it even more inconceivable that the treasures of the Yu family will appear here. Yu Peiyu was stunned for a long time, and then saw the portrait of a woman embroidered on the brocade bag, her eyes were like water, her face was peerless, she was Madam Ji. There are two lines of characters next to the embroidered image. "Always be by your side, never leave each other. Meiniang embroiders herself" The word "Meiniang" is naturally Mrs. Ji's boudoir name. Although the needlework is somewhat different from the handwriting, the handwriting is obviously written by the same person as the poem. When she married someone like Ji Zanghua, it was inevitable that her boudoir would be lonely, so she threw a ray of love on others, and her partner was actually a member of the Yu family. Yu Peiyu stood there stunned, Madam Ji's voice seemed to ring in her ears again. "...In the past, there was a person surnamed Yu who killed a person who was very close to me. In my feeling, no one surnamed Yu is a good person." Mrs. Ji hates Yu, not because Yu killed her relatives, but because Yu stabbed her heart. The person surnamed Yu must be suffering the same crisis as Yu Peiyu now, so Mrs. Ji hid him in this secret cave - Ji Zanghua's father had already died at that time, and he was afraid that he would never think of using him again. The secret cave that came to deceive people was actually used by his wife to hide her lover. Mrs. Ji may have known that Yu for a long time, or she may have grown affection for him when she saw him in distress. In short, he thought he did not cherish this affection, and finally abandoned her and left alone. "...There is no bright moonlit night in the world; Unless you look for it in a dream..." After "he" left, Mrs. Ji would never have any joy in the world, she could only find comfort in her dreams. The reason why she was obsessed all day long was because she had broken her heart. Yu Peiyu looked at Mrs. Ji, who was as beautiful as a flower in the brocade bag, and when she thought of the ghostly Mrs. Ji at this moment, she couldn't help but sigh secretly. But he couldn't think of who that "surnamed Yu" was anymore?Then it should be his elder, but naturally it can't be his father, and he can't think of anyone else. This past is full of eroticism and mystery, except Mrs. Ji and "he" himself, I am afraid that no one knows the details. Yu Peiyu sighed, and murmured: "I think he must have turned his back on Mrs. Ji in the end, and left quietly alone... But where did he go? There is no other way out of this tunnel." Thinking of this, Yu Peiyu felt refreshed, immediately put aside all other things, picked up the copper lamp, and walked towards the dark tunnel. ※※※ The tunnel is narrow and winding, and very long. "In this piece of ground, almost all the corpses he killed with his own hands..." Yu Peiyu thought of Ji Lingfeng's words, and cold sweat broke out in her palms unconsciously. But there was no corpse in the tunnel, and Yu Peiyu finally came to the end. He searched for a cup of tea, and finally found the key point. A stone slab slowly moved away. There was already light from outside, Yu Peiyu was overjoyed, she threw away the copper lamp and went out...Suddenly, a pair of hands stretched out and strangled his neck. His hands were as cold as ice. Only one person giggled and said: "You are finally back, I knew you would come back." Yu Peiyu was so frightened that she suddenly raised her head, and saw that the person hugging him was actually Mrs. Ji, and outside the authentic exit was Mrs. Ji's boudoir. Mrs. Ji threw herself on him with tears streaming down her face, and tremblingly said: "You are so cruel, you didn't tell me when you left, it made me think about you day and night, and I wish I could kill you... ...But now that you are back, I forgive you." Yu Peiyu made a mistake, and when he came back here, he was mistaken for her fickle lover. He didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and sighed, "Madam Ji, you are wrong, I am not the person you think, You let me go." Mrs. Ji hugged him tightly, crying and laughing, and said: "You are so cruel, you still lie to me now, but you can't lie to me again, I will never let you go, never I'll let you slip away again." Yu Peiyu was sweating profusely when she suddenly found Ji Lingfeng standing beside her, and said happily, "Miss Ji! You should know who I am, right?" Ji Lingfeng looked at him coldly, then suddenly smiled and said, "Of course I know who you are, you are the one my mother thinks about day and night." Yu Peiyu was horrified: "You...why did you harm me like this?" Ji Lingfeng smiled lightly: "You have made your mother suffer for so many years, so you should make her happy." Yu Peiyu was terrified, sweat drenched through his heavy clothes, he wanted to struggle, but Mrs. Ji hugged him desperately, but he couldn't break free. Madam Ji smirked and pushed him onto the bed to sit down, took his hand and said, "How have you been all these years? Do you know how much I miss you." Yu Peiyu said: "I...I don't..." Madam Ji didn't wait for him to speak, and rushed to say: "I know you must be tired and don't want to talk, but I'm so happy to meet again after a long absence... Lingfeng, you still haven't brought the wine I prepared for him, Let me celebrate." Sure enough, Ji Lingfeng walked out gracefully, and brought back a strange-looking wine bottle and two jade cups. Mrs. Ji filled a cup and brought it to him, smiling charmingly: "I haven't been so happy in a long time. You should drink this glass of wine." Under the light, I saw her face was blushing, and she seemed to have regained her old charm. Yu Peiyu knew that it was useless for her to explain in every possible way at this moment, so she could only wait and see, so she took the wine glass with a sigh and drank it down. Mrs. Ji said leisurely: "That's it. Do you remember that when we were drinking together, you once told me that you would never leave, do you remember?" Yu Peiyu smiled wryly, "I...I..." Madam Ji stood up, looked at him and said, "Although you were lying before, after drinking this glass of wine, you will never lie again." Yu Peiyu was startled, but felt a cold air rushing up from her dantian, her limbs immediately trembled from the cold, and gold stars appeared in front of her eyes, she couldn't help being shocked and said: "Is this wine poisonous?" Mrs. Ji giggled and said, "This glass of wine is called heartbroken wine. Once you drink this glass of wine, you will never be able to sneak away again." Yu Peiyu jumped up and exclaimed in horror: "But that's not me, it's not me..." Before the cry was heard, he fell to the ground, and his eyes were blurred. Madam Ji watched him fall, her laughter gradually stopped, but her tears kept flowing, she knelt down slowly, stroked his hair, and murmured: "I still remember the first time he came out of this tunnel." When I got out, I was changing clothes at that time, he was surprised and angry when he saw me, but he was so handsome, he just stood here and looked at me with a smile, his eyes... those eyes The eyes made it impossible for me to strike him." She murmured to herself dreamily, the sweetness and pain of the past had returned to her heart, and she finally found that bright moonlit night in her dream again. Ji Lingfeng looked at her indifferently, and said slowly: "You must have been very lonely then." Mrs. Ji said quietly: "After marrying such a husband, which woman is not lonely, lonely... It is that damned loneliness that makes me fall for his tricks." Ji Lingfeng said: "But he is kind to you after all, isn't he?" Mrs. Ji's eyes shone, she smiled and said, "He is really good to me. I have never had such a happy life in my life. Even when I can't see him, as long as I think of him, my heart will be sweet." Ji Lingfeng said: "It's because you are so happy together, so he left, and you suffer even more." Mrs. Ji's hands convulsed, and hissed: "Yes, I am in pain, I hate him, I hate him..." She gradually relaxed her fingers, stroked Yu Peiyu's hair again, and said: "But now I don't hate him anymore, now, he belongs to me completely, and no one will ever take him from my side again." snatch." Ji Lingfeng said coldly: "It's a pity that the person you are killing now is not the 'he' from before." Mrs. Ji laughed like crazy: "You lied to me, and you also want to lie to me. Besides 'him', who else would come out of this tunnel." Ji Lingfeng said slowly: "Although this tunnel is a secret, since your 'he' was able to discover the secret in the past, so can the person lying next to you now, because they are all members of the Yu family. They all know the secrets of Taijitu." Mrs. Ji stopped laughing, and said loudly, "Shut up! Shut up..." Ji Lingfeng ignored him, and continued with a sneer: "Actually, you also know that this person is not 'him', but you deliberately want to treat this person as 'him', you deceived yourself, because only this You can be free from pain." Madam Ji suddenly burst into tears like a child, threw herself on the ground, and hissed, "Why did you expose my dream? Why do you want me to suffer?" 姬灵风面色木然，冷冷道：“你只知道我令你痛苦，却不知你早已令我们痛苦了，你令我们一生下来就活在痛苦中，灵燕可以借着幻想来逃避痛苦，而我……我……我恨你！”她冷漠的双目泛起了泪珠。 姬夫人突然发狂般举起俞佩玉，吼道：“你不是他，你不是他，你既然不是他，为何要来……”她狂吼着，将俞佩玉从地上拖了出去。 姬灵风霍然转身，拉开了门，站在走廊上，高声道：“俞佩玉已死了，你们还不赶紧来瞧瞧。” 她呼声也冷得像冰，这冰冷高亢的呼声，随着夜风传送了出去，黑暗中立刻掠过来许多条人影。 当先掠来的一人，自然便是昆仑白鹤，他指着窗里透出的灯光，寻着俞佩玉的尸身，伸手摸了摸，长身而起，沉声道：“不错，俞佩玉已死了。” 点苍弟子顿足道：“只恨我等竟不能手诛此贼。” 白鹤道人厉声道：“他生前我等不能手诛此獠，死后也得鞭杀其尸……” 喝声中，长剑已出鞘，剑光一闪，竟向俞佩玉的尸体刺了过去。 突听“当”的一响，那直刺而下的剑光，突然青虹般冲天飞起，姬葬花已笑嘻嘻站在俞佩玉尸体前。 白鹤道人掌中剑，竟是被他震飞的，吃惊道：“姬庄主，你这是做什么？” 姬葬花悠悠道：“出家人怎可如此残忍，鞭尸这种事，是万万做不得的。” 白鹤道人怔了怔，冷笑道：“姬庄主何时变得慈悲起来？” 姬葬花眼睛一瞪，怒道：“我什么时候不慈悲？” 杀人庄主居然自称慈悲，白鹤道人虽觉又好气，又好笑，但想到他方才弹指震剑的功力，笑既笑不出，气也馁了，躬身道：“庄主请恕弟子失言……非是弟子不知慈悲，实因这俞佩玉委实罪大恶极，即令他如此死了，实不足以赎其罪。” 姬葬花道：“无论他生前有多大的罪，只要死了，便可一笔勾消，世上惟有死人才是最完美的，活着的人都该对死人分外尊敬。” 这番话说得更是令人哭笑不得，白鹤道人苦笑道：“他人既已死了，庄主又何苦为他劳心。” 姬葬花正色道：“在我这杀人庄中，惟有死人才真正是我的贵客，我本该特别照顾才是，至于活着的人，你无论对他怎样，都没关系。” 白鹤道人目光一转，道：“既是如此，弟子只有遵命，但此人生前已入昆仑门下，他的尸体，庄主总该让弟子们带走才是，弟子则担保绝不……” 姬葬花不等他话说完，已急忙摇手道：“无论他是哪一门哪一派的弟子，只要他死在我杀人庄中，尸体就是属于我的，谁若想将我的尸体抢走，我和他拼命。” 他双目圆睁，满脸通红，生像是在和别人争夺什么宝藏似的，点苍、昆仑弟子面面相觑，白鹤道人终于叹道：“无论如何，俞佩玉总已死了，我等总算已有了交代，不如就遵庄主之命放过他吧。” 姬灵风站在走廊上，冷眼旁观，这一切事似乎都早已在她的意料之中，她丝毫不觉得惊奇。 只见姬葬花像是宝贝似的捧起了俞佩玉的尸体，连蹿带跳，飞跃而去，白鹤道人像是想说什么，但瞧了姬葬花一眼，终于只是狠狠跺了跺脚，大步而去，只走出数丈外，方自恨声道：“这杀人庄里都是不可理喻的疯子，咱们快走，走得越快越好。” ※※※ 姬葬花跃入林中，才将俞佩玉的尸体轻轻放了下来，又替他擦干净脸上的灰尘，拉平了衣裳。 他轻手轻脚，小心翼翼，像是生怕弄痛了俞佩玉似的，世上只怕再也不会有人对个尸体如此温柔的了。 然后，他便自树丛中寻出把铲子，开始挖土，他日中满含着疯狂的喜悦，口中却喃喃叹道：“可怜的孩子，你年纪轻轻就死了，实在可惜得很，这只怪你不肯听我的话，否则又怎会被那妖妇毒死。” 突听一人冷冷道：“他若听你的话，只怕死得更惨了。” 星光下，飘飘站着条人影，正是姬灵风。 姬葬花跳了起来，捶胸顿脚，大叫道：“你又来了，你又来了，你难道就不能让我安静一下么？” 姬灵风淡淡道：“他人已死了，你为何不能让他安静安静？” 姬葬花道：“我正是让他永远安静地躺在地下。” 姬灵风冷笑道：“被你埋葬的人，又岂能安静？你说不定随时都会跑来，将他掘出来瞧瞧的。” 姬葬花大怒道：“你怎可对我如此说话……就算我不是你的父亲，你凭什么以为我会怕你？滚！快滚！否则我就将你和他埋在一起。” 姬灵风却站着动也不动，缓缓道：“你不敢碰我的，是么？……你知道爷爷临死前交给我许多秘密，其中就有一样是你最怕的。” 姬葬花果然立刻就软了下来，垂头丧气，道：“你究竟要怎样？” 姬灵风沉声道：“这尸体是我的，不许你碰他。” 姬葬花怔了怔，突然大笑道：“你怎地也对死人感兴趣起来了，难道你也和我一样……不错，你总算也是姓姬的，我就将这尸体让给你。” 他手舞足蹈，狂笑着奔了出去。 姬灵风俯身抱起了俞佩玉，喃喃道：“别人都认为你是个死人，又有谁知道死人有时也会复活的。” 冷风穿林而过，星光明灭闪烁，天地间本就充满了神秘。 ※※※ 巨大的石块上，已生出了惨绿色的苔痕，黝黑的角落里，悬集着密密的蛛网，甚至连灰尘都发了霉。 这阴森的石屋里，没有窗子，没有风，没有阳光，什么都没有，有的只是死亡的气息。 高阔的屋顶旁，有个小小的圆洞，一道灰蒙蒙的光线，射了进来，笔直射在俞佩玉的身上。 俞佩玉竟在颤动着——他莫非真的已复活？ 他竟赫然张开了眼睛，这似乎连他自己都吓了一跳，立刻翻身跃起，便瞧见了石屋里的景象。 他立刻便猜出这里必定就是那神秘的死屋，他竟已和姬家历代祖先的尸体共在一个屋顶下。 他手脚发冷，全身都忍不住颤抖了起来。 “我自然已死了，才会被埋葬在这里……但死了的人又怎会动呢？……莫非我现在已变成了鬼魂？” 他揉了揉眼睛，便赫然瞧见一个人。 这人穿着白绸的衣服，坐在一张宽大的椅子里，面色蜡黄，动也不动，看上去自也是说不出的诡秘可怖。 但俞佩玉却没什么感觉，这想来也不过又是具蜡像。 他忍不住往前走了两步，石室中竟似微微有风，那自然是从屋顶的圆洞里吹起来的，竟吹动了这“蜡像”的须发。 这竟非蜡像，而是个人。 俞佩玉大惊喝道：“你是什么人？” 那人端坐不动，像是根本未听见他的话，俞佩玉转念一想，自己反正已死了，还怕什么。 一念至此，他大步走了过去，走到那人面前，伸手一拍——不错，这的确是人，但却是个死人。 俞佩玉只觉一股寒意自指尖直透入心底，赶紧缩回去，转身望去，赫然发现这里竟不只这一个人。 姬家祖先的尸体，竟全都未埋葬，他们的尸身，竟都以药炼治过，每一具尸身都保留得好好的，永不腐烂。 放眼望去，只见每一具尸身都坐在一张宽大的椅子里，围绕着俞佩玉，像是正都在冷冷的瞧着他。 俞佩玉虽然明知这些“人”都已不能再动，都已不能伤害他，但冷汗仍忍不住流了出来，湿透重衣。 惨淡的光线，照在这些尸身的脸上，每张脸都是枯瘦而冷漠的，他们的面容虽仍保持得很好，并没有什么狰狞丑恶的模样，但那样冷冰冰的神态，看来却更是恐怖，置身此处，当真无异是在地狱里。 俞佩玉瞧着瞧着，全身的血都像是已冻结了起来，终于忍不住骇极狂呼，狂呼着往前冲了出去。 石室中还有间石室，这石室四周也坐着七八个死人，也是端坐在椅上不动，也是那冷冰冰的神态。 俞佩玉第一眼便瞧见张干枯诡异的脸，正是他在地穴所见到的那蜡像一模一样，这自然就是姬葬花的爹爹。 他像是死了并不太久，身上的衣裳也较其他人新得多。 忽然间，他身旁一个死人竟站了起来，向俞佩玉道：“你……你也来了？” 俞佩玉这一惊当真更是心胆皆丧，只见这人身上也穿着件白绸衣衫，却用白绸裹住了面目。 他竟蹒跚着向俞佩玉走了过来，俞佩玉手脚发软，一步步向后退，嘶声道：“你……你……” 说到第二个“你”声，声音已哑，再也无法成声。 那“人”也停下脚步，瞧着他缓缓道：“你莫要怕，我不是鬼。” 俞佩玉道：“你……你不是鬼？是……是谁？” 那“人”考虑了许久，突然嘎声笑道：“我是俞佩玉。” 俞佩玉骇极大呼道：“你是俞佩玉？我……我呢？” 那人再不说话，却将裹在脸上的白绸，一层层解了下来，露出了一张满是斑斑伤痕的脸。 俞佩玉定睛瞧着这张脸，瞧了许久，失声道：“你……你岂非谢天璧谢前辈。” 谢天璧竟会在这死屋里出现，那当真比见了鬼还令他吃惊。 谢天璧惨然一笑，道：“不错，我正是谢天璧，想不到你居然还认得我。” 俞佩玉苦笑道：“谢前辈，你方才吓得我好惨。” 谢天璧歉然笑道：“在这坟墓里和死人呆了许多天，突然瞧见你来了，惊喜之下，竟忍不住和你开了个玩笑。” 俞佩玉道：“前辈只怕是想瞧瞧我听了那话的表情，瞧瞧我是否真的俞佩玉。” 谢天璧长叹道：“不错，此时普天之下，只怕惟有你才能了解我的心事，也惟有我了解你的心事，你遭遇之奇，身受之惨如今我终于能相信了。” 俞佩玉也不觉惨然，颤声道：“前辈自己……” 谢天璧惨笑接口道：“只可惜我如今虽已相信，却也无用……我如今的遭遇，已和你一样，只怕永远要过这暗无天日的日子了。” 俞佩玉道：“前辈怎会来到这里？” 谢天璧道：“那日晚间，我喝了几盅酒，已有些醉意，三更左右便已睡着，沉睡中，突然有个人将我摇醒，问我是谁。” 俞佩玉道：“他闯入帐中，前辈还未问他是谁，他倒先问起前辈来了，这样的怪人怪事，倒也少见得很。” 谢天璧道：“我当时正也气恼，但抬头一瞧，却……却再也发作不出。” 俞佩玉道：“为什么？” 谢天璧道：“当时我帐中还燃着盏灯，灯光照着那人的脸，他眉目面容，竟和我生得一模一样，便像是我自己在照镜子似的。” 俞佩玉恨声道：“果然是那恶贼。” 谢天璧道：“我盯着他，他也盯着我，还说：'我乃点苍谢天璧，你为何睡在我的床上？'当时我醉酒未醒，真被他说得糊里糊涂，正和你方才一样，忍不住大喊道：'你是谢天璧？我呢？我又是谁呢？'” 俞佩玉叹道：“前辈自己也有这经验，所以方才前辈听见我那么说，就知道我的确是俞佩玉……但那恶贼当时又如何？” 谢天璧道：“那恶贼听我如此说话，反将我痛骂一顿，说我假冒他的容貌，还说人可假冒，点苍剑法假冒不得，他竟逼我出去与他一分强弱，强的是真，弱的便是假，假的使得走开，让真的留下。” 俞佩玉道：“那恶贼剑法又怎会是前辈的敌手？” 谢天璧惨笑道：“这些人手段之恶毒，又岂是你我所能想像……我当晚喝的酒中，竟被他下了迷药，真力竟无法运转如意，与他交手竟不出三招，便已被他将掌中剑击落，而他用的竟真的是点苍剑法。” 俞佩玉失声道：“前辈难道就真的这样被他逼走了？” 谢天璧叹道：“那时俞……俞放鹤，王雨楼等人，突然全都现身，原来他们早已藏在那里，以盟主的身份将我门下弟子全都支开……” 俞佩玉恨恨道：“前辈那时只怕还不知道他们也是假的。” 谢天璧道：“那时我的确梦想不到，见到盟主来了，心里正在欢喜，谁知他们竟一致说我是假冒谢天璧的人。” 他颤抖着抓住俞佩玉的手，掌心已满是冷汗，接道：“到那时我才知道被人冤屈的痛苦，我心胸都已似将裂开，怎奈四肢无力，反抗不得，竟被他们押上了大车，赶出了营地。” 俞佩玉道：“那俞……俞某人可在车上？” 谢天璧道：“他虽不在车上，却令手下几条大汉押着我，显然是要将我带到远处杀死，那时我连普通壮汉都不能抵抗，何况是那恶贼的属下。” 俞佩玉叹道：“如此说来，前辈能逃得性命，想必已是九死一生了。” 谢天璧道：“若非他们行事太过周密，只怕我也不能活到此刻。” 俞佩玉奇道：“此话怎讲？” 谢天璧道：“他们若将我胡乱寻个地方杀死，我早已没命，但他们却生怕行事不密，又怕毁尸不能灭迹……” 他惨笑着接道：“要杀我这样的人，想来也非易事，还得寻个好地方，而杀人的地方，普天之下，自然再好也莫过于杀人庄。” 俞佩玉长叹道：“不错，在这杀人庄里，杀人当真如斩草一般。” 他等着谢天璧再说下去，哪知谢天璧说到这里，便住口不语，过了半晌，俞佩玉终于忍不住又道：“瞧前辈负伤颇重，想必是那些恶贼定要前辈受尽折磨而死。” 谢天璧叹道：“正是如此。” 俞佩玉试探着道：“却不知前辈如何遇救？又如何来到这里？” 谢天璧沉吟着道：“这自是机缘巧合，只是……此事还关系着第三者的秘密，未得那人同意，恕我不能告诉你。” 他不等俞佩玉追问，一笑又道：“却不知你又是如何来到这里的？” 俞佩玉黯然长叹道：“弟子已……已是个死人，被人埋葬在这里。” 谢天璧动容道：“死人？你莫非有些……” 话未说完，只听一人冷冷道：“他说的不错，他确已死过一次，只是此刻又复活了。” 灰蒙蒙的光线里，悠悠出现条人影，那飘飘的白袍，飘飘的黑发，那仙子般慑人的美丽，妖魔般慑人的双瞳……在这幽暗的地方，黯淡的光影下，看来更宛如幽灵，令人一眼瞧去连呼吸都几乎停止。 这仙子与幽灵的混合，正是姬灵风。 谢天璧竟也似被这绝世的美丽与绝顶的冷漠所震慑，痴迷了半晌，方自展颜一笑，道：“姑娘莫非在说笑，死了的人，怎能复活？” 姬灵风悠悠道：“是我令他复活的。” 她淡淡的语声中，竟似真有一种能操纵人类生死的魔力，她冰冷的双瞳里，竟似真藏蕴着能主宰一切的秘密。 谢天璧、俞佩玉面面相觑，竟说不出话来。 只见姬灵风已走到那与地穴中蜡像一般模样的老人尸座前，盈盈拜了下去，拜了三拜，突然道：“这石墓中俱是姬家的祖先，你们必定在奇怪我为何独独参拜他一人是么，告诉你，这只因他曾救了我，正如我救了你们。” 俞佩玉，谢天璧更不知该如何回答。 姬灵风已霍然站起，转身逼视着谢天璧，道：“你奄奄一息，眼见已将遭毒手，是我使得他们以为你已死，再将他们引开，将你救来这里的，是么？” 谢天璧道：“姑娘大恩，在下永铭在心。” 姬灵风冷笑道：“你堂堂一大剑派的掌门人，却被个无名的女子救了性命，心里总觉得有些丢人，所以方才别人问你，你也不说，是么？” 谢天璧苦笑道：“姑娘错怪在下了，在下只是……” 姬灵风冷冷截道：“我气量素来狭窄，救了别人，就要他永远记得我的恩惠，否则我一样可以再令他死，这一点你也莫要忘记。”
