Chapter 18 The eighteenth chapter of the Great River Flowing East

Of course it is three strokes!Of course, they will never use one more trick than Xiao Shishilang, anyone can imagine this. Even Xiao Shishilang himself couldn't imagine that the sunset all over the sky suddenly disappeared, and the dark night suddenly enveloped the earth. The stars hadn't risen, and the moon hadn't risen either. In the night, the red cherry and green willow looked like They are two ghosts from hell who come to arrest people's souls. Their faces were as indifferent as ghosts, and their eyes were as strange as ghosts, but the swords in their hands were as bright as moonlight, and as bright as lightning.

Xiao Shishilang was holding a wooden stick one foot long and two feet long horizontally, with his left and right hands six feet apart, and the distance between the red cherry and the green willow was also five or six feet apart. The two yelled at the same time: "Let's go." Amidst the shouts, the daggers in the hands of the two flew out at the same time, like dragons scissors, lightning strikes, sword light flashed, and flew to the fatal points under the jawbones of Xiao Shilang's left and right ears. Of course, the speed of this blow was beyond anyone's imagination.

Xiao Shishilang didn't retreat or dodge, instead he rushed forward suddenly, and the long stick swept across the ribs of the two opponents. This is the first move, and both sides have already resorted to the first move. Xiao Shishilang's move is based on offense and defense, and he is already a killer who wants to survive. Hearing a "ding", the two swords slapped in the air, and suddenly turned in the air, like maggots attached to the bones, followed Xiao Shishilang back and flew to his back. The enemy was in front of him, but the sword Stab from behind. This move was dangerous and strange, which Xiao Shishilang had never encountered in his life.

Now he is already under the enemy's back, and if he fails to succeed in one move, he will be pierced through the heart by a sharp sword and die. In this unstoppable moment, his person flew into the air and fell out. With this turn and sweep, the distance was as far as four zhang, when his men fell, they had already reached the foot of the wall, and there was no way to retreat. The moment his footsteps touched the ground, the brilliance flashed in front of his eyes, and the two swords had already pursued him. Xiao Shishilang raised the wooden stick in his hand and greeted Jian Guang. He saw it very accurately and counted it very accurately.

Hearing the sound of "Duo", the two swords had been nailed into the wooden stick, and they were nailed to his hand. This was already the third trick Hong Ying and Lu Liu used. Now the sword has been nailed to the wooden stick, but Xiao Shishilang is still alive and undefeated. Feng Siniang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, when the two swords entered the wood, they actually passed through the wood, and the momentum continued, "chih", they stabbed at Xiao Shishilang's biggest fatal acupoints behind the cheekbones behind the left and right ears. This is still the same trick, or the third trick.

No one would have imagined that a blow from their flying swords would have such terrifying power that they seemed invincible and irresistible. However, Xiao Shishilang had no way to retreat, the wooden stick in his hand could neither be retracted nor attacked, and the wooden stick was right in front of him, with the wall behind him, his retreat routes on both sides were blocked, it seemed that he There is no doubt that he must die. Feng Siniang could hardly bear to close her eyes, she couldn't watch it anymore, and couldn't bear to watch it anymore. Unexpectedly, at this moment, another astonishing change occurred.

Xiao Shishilang actually lowered his head and bumped into the wooden stick in his hand, and there was another "ding" blow. The two swords brushed behind his head, and they struck in the air.The wooden stick in his hand had been split in two by the top of his head, and flew out, flying towards the red cherry and green willow respectively. The swords of the red cherry and the green willow have pierced through the two crossbars respectively, and the Wusi driving the flying sword has also passed through the crossbar. Xiao Shishilang's impact on the head was too forceful, the wooden stick was like a taut bowstring, it was cut suddenly and bounced out, the force of this bounce was of course very fast and urgent.

Seeing that the red cherry and green willow had hit with one blow, they suddenly found that two wooden sticks had bounced towards them. Before they had time to think about it, they turned over at the same time. Although they avoided the blow, the Wusi on the sword had already been released. In the gloomy night, I saw two figures floating up like two flying clouds, floating over the wall. Only Li Hongying's cold voice came from afar: "Okay, Xiao Shishilang." When the sound disappeared, their figures also disappeared. In the dark night, a lone shining star has risen in the east.

The night is getting deeper... Two dazzling daggers, crossed into a cross, were placed on the table and under the lamp. The sword light is more dazzling than the lights. The cold and desolate sword light reflected an invitation like an obituary: "...One hundred and eighty altars of fine wine are specially prepared, I hope you will come and get drunk..." "...Good wine is intoxicating, and you will be drunk when you come. If you are afraid of getting drunk, it doesn't matter if you don't come." Xiao Shishilang held a glass in his hand, stared at the wine in the glass, and murmured: "They should know that I am not afraid of getting drunk, everyone knows."

Feng Siniang was looking at him and said: "So you are a little drunk now?" Xiao Shishilang drank his glass and said, "I won't get drunk. I know myself. I know how much I can drink." He poured another glass of wine and said, "Everyone should have self-knowledge, and shouldn't be too sentimental." ——Amorous?He really thinks that he is just self-indulgent towards Shen Bijun? Feng Siniang suddenly smiled, and said: "I think Li Hongying and Yang Luliu are very self-aware. They know that they have lost, so they left immediately." She obviously wanted to change the subject, and said something that would make Xiao Shishilang pleasant thing. "They have used three moves, but you have only used two moves. Their swords have already been released and are in your hands."

Xiao Shishilang also smiled and said, "But my head was almost knocked out with a big hole, but their heads are still fine." Feng Siniang said: "No matter what, they have finally been defeated by you." Xiao Shishilang said: "I have the reputation of knowing myself. I am not their opponent, just like I am not Xiaoyaohou's opponent." Feng Siniang said: "But you defeated them." Xiao Shishilang said: "It's just because my luck is better." He raised his glass again and stared at the invitation on the table: "It's a pity that one's luck can never be good forever." Under the gloomy sword light, the invitation looked more like an obituary. Xiao Shishilang looked at this invitation as if he was looking at his own obituary. When some people know that they must die, they will first prepare for the funeral and post the obituary. Feng Siniang said: "Are you worried about tomorrow's date?" Xiao Shishilang said lightly: "I have never worried about tomorrow's affairs." He suddenly laughed and toasted again: "If you have wine today, you are drunk today, so why bother about tomorrow's affairs!" Feng Siniang said: "You don't have to worry about it, these seven people are not worth worrying about at all." Xiao Shishilang looked at the seven names on the invitation, and suddenly asked: "Do you recognize them?" Feng Siniang nodded, and said: "Li Qingfeng is dead. It seems that although he is still very majestic, his heart is dead." No matter who has lived a leisurely life for twenty or thirty years, he will never have the sharpness of the past. Feng Siniang said: "He can't even deal with a cripple like Master Ren. Although his knife hasn't rusted yet, his heart has already rusted." Xiao Shishilang said: "Have you seen him make a move?" Feng Siniang said: "I've seen it, and I can see that his moves are at least 50% slower than in previous years." Xiao Shishilang said: "Can you see that? Do you know how fast his shots were in the past?" Feng Siniang said: "I don't know, I only know that his actions in the past, if it was the same as now, he would not have survived at all." She continued: "It is a miracle that the Master can live till now .” Xiao Shishilang sighed and said, "He is indeed a strong man." A man who has had three of his limbs amputated but still has the courage to live is certainly a strong man. Feng Siniang said: "It's a pity that he has something wrong in his heart, his heart is definitely not as strong as his appearance, he may be terribly afraid." Xiao Shishilang said: "Can you see his heart?" Feng Siniang said: "But I know that no matter who calls himself a master, it will never be normal." Xiao Shishilang sighed: "I just feel a little uncomfortable for that big man who was whipped like a horse by him. I think that person must have a very difficult life." Feng Siniang also sighed, and said: "I never thought about that person, but I did think about you. You always think about others more than yourself." Xiao Shishilang said coldly: "I have nothing to think about at all." Feng Siniang said: "Because you are just a wolf?" She smiled again and said: "Then you don't have to worry about Hua Ruyu, he is just a fox, when a fox meets a wolf, it is like A mouse is like a cat." Xiao Shishilang said: "Brother Xuanyuan is also a fox?" Feng Siniang said: "They are two cunning and cunning foxes, as long as they smell danger, they will definitely slip away faster than anyone else." Xiao Shishilang said: "Where is the Golden Bodhisattva?" Feng Siniang said: "He is not a fox, but a pig, a lazy, lustful and money-grubbing pig." Xiao Shishilang smiled. Feng Siniang said: "Maybe you don't have to deal with him at all, he will also be eaten by those three foxes." Xiao Shishilang said: "So the most dangerous one is the Shark King." Feng Siniang didn't deny it: "It is said that he is a tiger shark that eats people, and he doesn't even spit out bones after eating people." Xiao Shishilang said: "I'm not worried about him." Feng Siniang said: "Why?" Xiao Shishilang said indifferently: "Because I am not human at all, if you ask anyone casually, they will definitely say that Xiao Shishilang is not human at all." Looking at the expression on his face, Feng Siniang couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart. If a person has been misunderstood all his life, the pain must be unbearable. Xiao Shishilang said again: "Actually, I'm not worried about these seven people." Feng Siniang said: "What are you worried about?" Xiao Shishilang stared at the invitation, and said slowly: "What I am worried about is that there is no one who signed the invitation." Feng Siniang said: "Do you think that these seven people are not the only ones who will deal with you tomorrow? Is there someone more terrifying lying in ambush?" Xiao Shishilang smiled and said, "I'm a wolf, so I can always smell dangers that others can't." He smiled very strangely, even Feng Siniang had never seen him smile like this before. It seems that it is like the smile when a person is dying, when he returns to the light. Xiao Shishilang was still laughing: "Before a wolf falls into a trap, it will always feel some ominous omen, but it still has to go forward, even if it knows it will die if it falls, it still has to go forward, because it has no There's no turning back, there's no way behind it." Feng Siniang's heart sank.She suddenly understood what Xiao Shishilang meant. If a person has lost interest, lost fighting spirit, if he is unwilling to live any longer, anyone can kill him. Xiao Shishilang is obviously like this now. He himself feels that he has no reason to live anymore, and he has been hit too hard. In that battle just now, he was able to defeat Hong Ying Lu Liu, only because that battle was not for himself, but for saving Feng Siniang. He felt that he owed Feng Siniang a debt, and even if he was going to die, he had to pay off the debt before he died. Now he may feel that the debt has been paid off, he has already died for Feng Siniang once. As for Shen Bijun's debt, he had already paid off the moment Shen Bijun followed Lian Chengbi. He felt that Shen Bijun owed him now, and he no longer owed Shen Bijun. Although his person is still alive, his heart is dead—it is also the moment when Shen Bijun followed Lian Chengbi and died. Feng Siniang suddenly found out that after he left tomorrow, she would never see him again. Because he now has the heart to die, he doesn't want to come back alive at all. How is Feng Siniang's own mood? When a woman looks at the only man she truly loves in her life, what kind of mood will she feel when she is so sad for other women? She wanted to cry, but she couldn't even cry, because she was afraid that Xiao Shishilang would be even more depressed and sad when he saw it. She could only pour a full glass of wine for herself. Xiao Shishilang suddenly held her hand and stared at her: "Do you know what I'm thinking?" Feng Siniang nodded silently. Xiao Shishilang's hands were tightly clenched, and his eyes were full of red threads: "I shouldn't have thought that way, and I know that she is someone else's wife, and she is not worthy of me at all... ..." "Die for her." He didn't say the word "death", but Feng Siniang already knew what he was going to say. Xiao Shishilang's hand clenched even tighter: "I know I should have forgotten her and lived a good life. I'm not too old yet, and I still have a future. At least I still have you." Feng Siniang gritted her teeth hard and controlled herself. She could tell that Xiao Shishilang was drunk and his eyes were straight. If he hadn't been drunk, he would never have said such a thing in front of her. . Xiao Shishilang continued: "I know everything, I understand everything, but I just can't do anything... just can't do what I should do." Feng Siniang said softly: "Then you shouldn't blame yourself, let alone force yourself." Xiao Shishilang said: "But I..." Feng Siniang interrupted him: "Since you know everything, you should also know that everything in the world can be forced, only feelings can't be forced by anyone." Xiao Shishilang lowered his head and said, "I...I only hope that you...you forgive me." Feng Siniang said: "Of course I forgive you, I never blamed you at all." Xiao Shishilang didn't speak any more, nor did he raise his head. Feng Siniang suddenly realized that there was a crystal teardrop on the back of her hand. These are Xiao Shishilang's tears, and Xiao Shishilang sometimes sheds tears. This drop of tears is like a needle, piercing into Feng Siniang's heart, and it is also like a pearl, a pearl that is more precious than all the wealth in the world combined. Feng Siniang just wanted to use a white jade gold bottle, keep it in her heart forever, but the teardrops have slowly seeped and disappeared, but it has also penetrated into Feng Siniang's skin , became one with her life and soul. After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Shishilang murmured again: "You often say that you are not a real woman..." Feng Siniang did say so, she always felt that she was not a completely feminine woman. Xiao Shishilang said: "But you are wrong." Feng Siniang said: "Am I wrong?" Xiao Shishilang said: "You are not only a real woman, but also a great woman. You have brought out all the noblest and greatest spirituality of women. I can guarantee that there is no one greater than you in the world." woman, never..." His voice became lower and lower, and his head gradually lowered, landing on the back of Feng Siniang's hand. He actually fell asleep on Feng Siniang's hand. Feng Siniang didn't move. Xiao Shishilang's head seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and her hands were numb from the pressure, but she didn't move. Everyone knows that Feng Siniang is a woman who is like the wind and a woman who is like a fire. But no one knew that she had silently endured what any woman could not bear. She knew that what Xiao Shishilang said was the truth, he said it in his mouth, but she heard it in her heart, but she didn't know if it was sweet?Is it sour?Is it bitter? She knew that Xiao Shishilang understood her, just as she knew Xiao Shishilang. But his feelings for her were completely different from her feelings for him. This is the greatest human pain—a pain of helplessness. She had endured this pain for ten years, and must continue to suffer it as long as she lived. If you live a day, you have to endure a day, and if you live a year, you have to endure a year until you die. ——The spring silkworms will only run out of silk when they die, and the wax torch will turn into ashes and tears will dry. These are two famous poems, almost everyone has read them, but how many people can really understand the bitterness in them? She didn't know how long she would have to endure, nor how long she could live. She only knows that she must not die now, she must live, because she must find a way to help Xiao Shishilang live. She lives for Xiao Shishilang. If she wanted to die, she would have to die for Xiao Shishilang. The wax torch has not yet turned into ashes, nor have the tears dried up. Feng Siniang's arm was almost completely numb, but she didn't move. She was sore, sad, and weary. She wanted to get drunk and sleep, but she could neither sleep nor dare to get drunk. She must guard Xiao Shishilang here until the night passes and dawn falls, until he leaves. Suddenly, the wax torch had been burned out, the fire went out, and it became dark all around. She could no longer see Xiao Shishilang, and she could no longer see anything. In this deathly silence and darkness, in this sad and weary situation, she suddenly became sober. There are many things in the world that are like this—when the darkness is at its darkest, the light must come soon. She suddenly remembered many things, many questions. She said these questions one by one by herself, and then answered them one by one. She first asked herself: "What kind of person is Hua Ruyu?" Of course Hua Ruyu is a deep, cunning, powerful and terrifying person. "A person as powerful as him, who spent so much effort to get Shen Bijun, how could he let a coachman rescue her easily?" That was impossible. "Could it be that Hua Ruyu arranged this by herself, and deliberately asked the driver to rescue Shen Bijun?" This explanation is not only more reasonable, but almost the only explanation. "Why did Hua Ruyu do this? He worked so hard to get Shen Bijun, why did he deliberately ask someone to rescue her?" "Because he asked the coachman to take Shen Bijun to Wugou Villa." "What is this for?" "Because he knew that Lian Chengbi would definitely come here, he deliberately wanted Shen Bijun to meet Lian Chengbi, and wanted Shen Bijun to see how poor and haggard her husband has become." "Why?" Feng Siniang asked herself again. "Because he knows that Shen Bijun is a weak and kind woman. If she sees Lian Chengbi ruining herself for her, she will definitely soften her heart. In order to make Lian Chengbi recover, she will sacrifice everything." "But a person like Hua Ruyu will never do anything that is not good for him. What good will he do for himself?" "No good." "The only explanation is that all these plans were not arranged by Hua Ruyu herself, and there must be another person behind him in the dark." "Who in this world can command Hua Ruyu? Make Hua Ruyu accept his orders?" "Of course he is a deeper, stronger and more terrifying person than Hua Ruyu." "Could this person be the one who succeeded Xiaoyaohou? Could it be the one who deliberately gave tens of millions of wealth to Xiao Shishilang?" "It must be him!" "Because Hua Ruyu is also his subordinate, Hua Ruyu has never really cared about Xiao Shishilang's 'treasure'. He already knew that this 'treasure' did not exist at all." "Why would this person do this?" "Because he wants to frame Xiao Shishilang, wants others to deal with Xiao Shishilang, and wants Shen Bijun to hold grudges against Xiao Shishilang." "Of course Hua Ruyu already knew that 'Wugou Villa' belonged to Xiao Shishilang." "Of course he also knows how sad and angry Shen Bijun will be when he finds out about this?" "But since he knows that Lian Chengbi has sold Wugou Villa, how can he be sure that Lian Chengbi will meet Shen Bijun here?" "Could it be that Lian Chengbi arranged this himself?" "This matter has developed to the present situation, and the only person who has benefited is Lian Chengbi?" "Except for Lian Chengbi, no one knows that Xiao Shishilang is here, so how did the invitation come here?" "Could it be that Lian Chengbi was secretly instigating all these plans? Could it be that he is the one who took over Xiaoyaohou's position?" Feng Siniang asked herself five questions in a row. None of the five questions had been answered—not because she couldn't, but because she couldn't believe her own answers. She did not dare. ——Lian Chengbi is "that person". Just thinking of this possibility, Feng Siniang couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat. If this is the truth, it would be too scary. Feng Siniang didn't even dare to think about it, she couldn't imagine that there were such cruel and vicious people in the world. But she also always knew that Liancheng Biben was a very calm and deep person. A man like him shouldn't have become so poor and haggard for a woman. He has always valued his reputation and family background more than anything else in the world. Even the family has been rich for generations and has more properties. No matter how much one spends, it is difficult for a person to wipe out this billions of dollars in just two years. What's more, Lian Chengbi himself is a very well-connected and capable person, how could he be so poor that he even sold "Wugou Villa" to others? Who in this world has the ability and courage to buy Wugou Villa? Even if someone really bought it, how could this Wugou Villa become Xiao Shishilang? Thinking of this, Feng Siniang's clothes were soaked in cold sweat. But she still wasn't sure. She still couldn't figure out how Lian Chengbi knew Xiaoyaohou's secret?How can he take over the position of Xiaoyaohou? Now she only knows that Xiao Shishilang has indeed become the target of public criticism in the arena. Shen Bijun has indeed re-entered Lian Chengbi's embrace willingly. These things were absolutely impossible to happen, but all of them have happened now. Feng Siniang has made up her mind, no matter what, she must tell Xiao Shishilang her thoughts. Xiao Shishilang's premonition may not be wrong. Tomorrow's appointment, the truly terrifying person may indeed not be the seven people who signed the invitation, but Lian Chengbi. She had seen Lian Chengbi's "Sword in the Sleeve" with her own eyes. Even a person as powerful as "Little Young Master" had no power to resist and immediately died under his sword. In the past two years, he has probably practiced even more terrifying martial arts. With his martial arts, plus any two of those seven people, Xiao Shishilang would definitely die. Feng Siniang must tell Xiao Shishilang to be extra careful. But she still can't bear to wake him up, these days, he is too tired, too tired, sleep is too important to him. It is still a long time before dawn, and she is determined to let him sleep peacefully first. Tomorrow's battle is likely to be a battle that will determine his life and death. He must have enough mental and physical strength to deal with it, because he is only one person, and almost no one else in this world can help him. Even Feng Siniang can't, because she doesn't have such power at all. The night was deeper and darker. Feng Siniang's whole body was numb from sitting, but she still didn't dare to move. She can only concentrate on thinking, and she hopes that concentrating on thinking can keep her awake. She thought that among the seven people, Hua Ruyu was probably the only one who was Lian Chengbi's subordinate. The other six people, maybe they were just deceived by him, and they came to deal with Xiao Shishilang in order to covet the treasure that didn't exist at all. If she could expose this conspiracy face to face, they might turn against each other and deal with Hua Ruyu. Thinking of this, the burden in Feng Siniang's heart finally eased. Then she thought of many things. "Now they must know the origin of Bingbing, and Bingbing must have fallen into their hands." So Feng Siniang couldn't help blaming herself. If she hadn't asked Xiao Shishilang to accompany her to drink at the noodle stall that day, and if she hadn't been so indifferent to Bingbing, Bingbing might not have gone back alone. She thought of Bingbing, and then of Shen Bijun. Shen Bijun is indeed a poor and lovely woman, she is too gentle and infatuated. Perhaps because of this, she has never been able to control her own destiny, and has always been at the mercy of others. So in her life, she was doomed to suffer so much torture and misfortune. What about Bing Bing? Bingbing is even more pitiful. She is just as beautiful as a flower, but her life is shorter than a flower. Maybe neither of them is good enough for Xiao Shishilang. What Xiao Shishilang needs is a smart and strong woman who can encourage him, comfort him, and understand him. Who in this world can understand Xiao Shishilang better than herself? Feng Siniang didn't dare to think about it anymore. Xiao Shishilang's face was still resting on her hand, and she could even hear his heartbeat. She couldn't help thinking about that night again. The intoxication and passion, the sweetness and the pain that night were all she will never forget in her life. But she was determined not to mention it again, and she even hoped that Xiao Shishilang would forget about it. What a painful choice!What a great sacrifice! Feng Siniang sighed, she must drink some wine now, otherwise she might not be able to support herself. The glass of wine that was filled just now was still in front of her. She picked up the wine glass, put it down again, put it down and raised it again, and she finally drank it down. This glass of wine really cheered her up a bit, and another drink might last her until dawn. The flagon was also in front of her. She was afraid that the sound of pouring wine would wake up Xiao Shishilang, so she picked up the flagon and drank it to her mouth. There seems to be no more wine in the jug. Unknowingly, she drank all of it, the heat of the wine really made the blood in her whole body flow smoothly. She gently, slowly, leaned on the back of the chair. It was still dark outside the window, and so was the room. The wind was blowing the phoenix trees outside the window, as light as a lover's breath. Xiao Shishilang's breathing was also very light and even, as if with a wonderful rhythm. She stared at the boundless darkness in front of her, listening to the wind outside the window and Xiao Shishilang's breathing. A sweet and deep darkness, darker than night, suddenly embraced her. She fell asleep suddenly. However deep the darkness, sooner or later the light will come, and however sweet the sleep, there will be wakefulness sooner or later. Feng Siniang woke up suddenly, the bright autumn sun was shining on the snow-white window paper. She sighed softly, slowly raised her hand, and rubbed her eyes. Her heart suddenly sank, sank to the soles of her feet, into the abyss. She has no one on her hands. Xiao Shishilang, who was sleeping on her arm, had disappeared. "He will never leave like this." Feng Siniang jumped up, wanted to call out, wanted to look for it, but found that there were a few extra lines on the back of the obituary-like invitation, written with chopsticks dipped in chili sauce, very blurry and messy : "I'm leaving. I must have numb your hand, but when you wake up, your hand will no longer be numb. They are looking for only me. You don't have to go, and you can't go. You will Even if you can't see me, you will definitely hear from me soon." The blurred words are even more blurred, because tears have dripped on them, like a layer of rain and fog on falling flowers. ——I must have numb your hand, but when you wake up, your hand will no longer be numb. She understood what he meant. ——I must have broken your heart, but when you wake up, you won’t feel sad anymore, because I don’t deserve your heartache at all. But, can she really forget him, can she really wake up? —Even if you don’t see me anymore, you will surely hear from me soon. What's that news?die? Since he had made up his mind to die, what news could he hear but his death? Feng Siniang's heart has been torn, and her whole body has been torn. —Why didn't he wake me up?Why don't you let me tell him those secrets that are enough to make him not want to die? —Why should I fall asleep at such a critical moment of life and death? Feng Siniang couldn't help but screamed, "Am I also a pig? A dead pig?" She grabbed the wine glass and wine jug on the table, threw them out hard, and smashed them into pieces. She wished she could smash herself to pieces. A person quietly put his head in and looked at her in surprise. Feng Siniang suddenly rushed over and grabbed his skirt: "Where's your Master Xiao?" "gone." This person was Lao Hei, the servant of Wugou Villa, his black face turned pale with fright. "When did you leave?" "He left at dawn, and there seems to be a carriage outside to pick him up." "What kind of carriage is it?" "I... I didn't see clearly." Before he finished his sentence, Feng Siniang slapped him on the face: "Why don't you see clearly...why don't you see clearly..." She slapped her hard, but Lao Hei didn't seem to feel any pain at all. He was completely petrified. Fortunately, Feng Siniang had let him go and rushed out, a vicious smile appeared on his face immediately. He knew that she would never find Xiao Shishilang. A carriage picked him up and took him to a boat. This is the only clue Feng Siniang knows. What kind of carriage is it? What kind of ship is it? Where is the boat? She didn't know at all, she only knew that no matter what, she must find Xiao Shishilang, she had to find it. Now if she can tell Xiao Shishilang the questions and answers she thought about last night, it will definitely inspire his courage and fighting spirit to survive. Regardless of whether the mastermind of this conspiracy is Lian Chengbi or not, he will definitely try to find out the real answer, and he must find it. He must live to find it. This may be the only force that can keep him alive, otherwise he must die, because he himself does not want to live anymore, he has no hope and courage to live. If he died, would Bingbing still be able to live?Can Shen Bijun survive? Could she survive by herself? The answer is almost absolutely no. die!If Xiao Shishilang died, everyone would have to die. She is not afraid of death, but if everyone really dies like this, she will not be willing to die. She didn't take life and death seriously, but she couldn't bear this tone. Feng Siniang is such a woman, she is willing to die a thousand times or ten thousand times just to win her breath. It's still early in the day, but autumn is getting darker. The mountains are full of yellow leaves, rustled by the autumn wind, as if countless people are sighing for her. She could see no carriage, no ruts. The soil on the ground was dry and solid, even if there were car marks left, they would have been blown away by the wind long ago. The wind blew on her body, and her whole body was icy cold, from the bottom of her heart to the bottom of her feet. Facing the mountains full of autumn leaves and forests full of autumn wind alone, she wished she could cry a lot. But what's the use of crying?Even if the heart is broken from crying, who will listen? ——Xiao Shishilang, why did you sneak away?Why go by car? If he rode, she might be able to find out his whereabouts in the town. Because he has always been a very attractive person. But sitting in a carriage, no one would notice him, and no one would pay attention to a carriage. Besides, she didn't even know what the carriage looked like. Now her only clue is "a boat", and the boat is always moored by the river bank. The river bank is in the southeast. She gritted her teeth, packed up her sorrows and sorrows, cheered up, and went straight to the southeast. This is the only way she can go, if she can't find Xiao Shishilang, this way will be a dead end. The wind moved the autumn forest, and a dead leaf was blown down by the wind, rolling and dancing in the wind. Wherever the wind blows, it has to follow. It can neither choose a direction nor stop. Isn't the life of some people also the same, like this dead leaf, being fiddled with by fate? The great river flows eastward. How many ships are there on the river, who knows which ship Xiao Shishilang is on?So what if we reach the river bank? Feng Siniang walked very fast, wishing she could fly, but her heart was sinking. The sun has risen, bright and brilliant. Her face was also shining, but her heart seemed to be covered by dark clouds, no matter how bright the sun was, it couldn't reach her heart. She hardly had the courage to go on, because she had no confidence at all. There is a stall selling alcohol by the roadside, beef, dried tofu, and liquor. Wouldn't a glass of wine cheer you up? Before she walked over, she found that seven or eight pairs of eyes beside the stall were staring at her. She has always been a very attractive person, if anyone wants to inquire about her whereabouts, it must be easy to inquire about her. There are not too many people in this world who can really attract attention, but she and Xiao Shishilang are not the only two. — At least two more. Could it be that Shen Bijun and Lian Chengbi are the same kind of people, especially when they walk together—— A young woman who is so beautiful that it can make your heart beat is walking with a drunk man who is down and out, no matter who you are, you can't help but look at them more. If Lian Chengbi is really "that person", wouldn't she definitely be on that boat tonight? If he could be found, wouldn't it be possible to find Xiao Shishilang as well? Feng Siniang's eyes lit up, she already had a pair of attractive eyes, and when they lit up, they were even more touching. Under the big tree, two teenagers with swords were watching her, they were so fascinated that they didn't even know that the wine in the bowl spilled out. Feng Siniang rolled her eyes, walked over suddenly, and greeted with a smile: "Hello." The two young men were taken aback, surprised and delighted, one almost spilled half the bowl of wine in his hand. The other one seemed calmer and more experienced. He actually stood up and smiled and said, "My name is Huo Ying, and his name is Du Yin. Miss, what's your name?" Experienced means, of course, that he is more experienced with women. Many young people in the arena are already experienced in the arena. Feng Siniang also laughed, but didn't answer his words, and asked instead: "Are you a dart walker?" Huo Ying said: "I am, he is not." Feng Siniang said: "Have you all been walking in the rivers and lakes for a long time?" Huo Ying said: "I've been away for a long time, but he hasn't." Feng Siniang said: "Have you ever heard of a person named Feng Siniang?" Huo Ying said: "Of course I heard it, she..." Du Yin suddenly rushed to say: "I've heard it too, I've heard that she's a...is a..." Feng Siniang said: "What is it?" 杜吟的脸似已有些发红，讷讷道：“是个女人，很好看的女人，而且……” 这次霍英替他说了下去：“而且很凶，据说江湖中有很多成名的英雄，一看见她就头痛。” 风四娘笑了笑，道：“现在你们的头痛不痛？” 两个人又吃了一惊，吃惊的看着她。 还是霍英的胆子比较大，终于鼓起勇气，道：“你就是风四娘？” 风四娘道：“我就是，就是那个又凶，又不讲理的女妖怪。” 霍英怔住，怔了半天，才长长吐出口气，勉强笑道：“可是你看来一点也不像。” 风四娘道：“不像风四娘。” 霍英道：“不像女妖怪。” 杜吟居然也跟着道：“一点也不像。” Feng Siniang laughed again. 她本来就是个很好看的女人，笑起来的时候，更没有一点凶的样子。 霍英的勇气又恢复了，试探着道：“听说你的酒量很好，这里的酒也不错，你……” 风四娘嫣然道：“我本来就想要你们请我喝杯酒。” 酒其实并不好，只不过酒总是酒。 风四娘一口气就喝了三碗，眼睛更亮了。 杜吟看着她的时候，脸也更红，好像已神魂颠倒，不知所措。 霍英的胆子却更大，忽然道：“我也能喝几杯，我们来拼酒好不好？” 风四娘瞟了他一眼，道：“你想灌醉我？” 霍英居然没有否认，道：“我听说你从来也不会醉的，所以……” 风四娘道：“所以你想试试。” 霍英笑道：“反正就算喝醉了也没什么关系，我若喝醉了，小杜会送我，你若喝醉了，我送你。” 这小子居然像是有些不怀好意。 Feng Siniang laughed again. 树下有两匹马，她忽然问道：“这两匹马是你们骑来的？” 霍英点点头，眯起眼道：“你就算醉得连马都不能骑，我也可以在后面扶着你。” 风四娘道：“你知道我要到哪里去？” 霍英道：“随便你想到哪里去都行。” 风四娘道：“你们没有别的事？” 霍英道：“我没有，他……” 杜吟抢着道：“我也没事，一点事都没有。” 风四娘忽然跳起来，笑道：“好，我们走。” 霍英怔了怔，道：“走？走到哪里去？” 风四娘道：“去找两个人。” 霍英道：“我们刚才岂非说好了要拼酒的。” 风四娘道：“先去找人，再拼酒。”她笑得更迷人：“只要能找到那两个人，随便你要跟我怎么拼都行。” 霍英的眼睛亮了，他本来就有双色迷迷的眼睛，亮起来的时候，更显得不怀好意。 初出道的犊儿，连只老虎都不怕，何况母老虎？ 更何况这条母老虎看来一点也不像！ 他也跳了起来，笑道：“别的本事我没有，要找人，我倒是专家，随便你要找什么人，只要是说出他们的样子来，我就能找得到。” 风四娘道：“真的？你真有这种本事？” 霍英道：“不信你可以问小杜。” 杜吟点点头，心里虽然有点不愿意，却也不能不承认：“他不但眼睛尖，而且记性好，不管什么样的人，只要被他看过一眼，他就不会忘记。” 风四娘笑道：“我要找的这两个人，随便谁只要看过一眼，都绝不会忘记的。” 霍英道：“这两个人很特别？” 风四娘道：“的确很特别。” 霍英道：“是男的？还是女的？” 风四娘道：“一男一女，女的很好看……” 霍英抢着道：“比你还好看？” 风四娘叹了口气，道：“比我好看一百倍。” 霍英道：“男的呢？” 风四娘道：“男的本来也很好看，只不过现在看来很落魄，而且还长出了一脸乱七八糟的胡子来。” 霍英立刻摇头，道：“我没看见这么样两个人，也找不到。” 他的脸色似已有点变了，笑得很不自然，事实上他简直已笑不出来。 他心里有什么鬼？ 风四娘眼珠子转了转，笑道：“你虽然没看见，可是我知道有个人一定看见了。” 霍英立刻问：“谁？” 风四娘道：“小杜。” 霍英更紧张，勉强笑道：“我跟他是一路来的，我没有看见，他怎么会看见？” 风四娘道：“因为他是个老实人，他不会说谎。”她忽然转过头，盯着杜吟，道：“小杜，你说对不对？” 杜吟的脸又红了，他的确不会说谎，却又不敢说实话，他好像有点怕霍英。 可是看他的表情，已经等于把什么话都写在脸上了。 霍英只有叹了口气，苦笑道：“今天早上我们吃早点的时候，好像看见过这样两个人。” 风四娘道：“那女的是不是很美？” 霍英只好点点头。 风四娘道：“你是不是也想找她拼酒？” 霍英的脸也红了。他毕竟还是个年轻人，脸皮还不太厚。 杜吟低着头，嗫嚅着道：“其实他也并没有什么恶意，他本来就是这么样一个人，只不过有点……有点……” 风四娘替他说了下去：“有点风流自赏，也有点自作多情。” 霍英的脸更红，好像已准备开溜。 风四娘却拍了拍他的肩，笑道：“其实这也没什么好难为情的，人不风流枉少年，年轻人看见漂亮的女人，若是不动心，那么他不是个伪君子，就是块木头。” 霍英看着她，目中已露出感激之色，他忽然发觉这个女妖怪非但一点也不可怕，而且非常可爱。 无论谁看见风四娘，都会有这种想法的。 她不但能了解别人，而且能同情别人的想法，原谅别人的过错。 只要你没有真的惹恼她，她永远都是你最可爱的朋友。 杜吟道：“其实他也没有怎么样，也不过多看了那位连夫人两眼，想去管管闲事而已。” 风四娘的眼睛里更发出了光，道：“你们已知道她就是连夫人沈璧君？” 杜吟点点头。 风四娘道：“你们怎么会知道的？” 霍英叹了口气，苦笑道：“我看见她那么样一个女人，居然跟一个又穷又臭的男人在一起，而且神情显得很悲伤，好像受了很多委屈。” 风四娘道：“所以你就认为她一定是受了那个男人的欺侮，就想去打抱不平。” 霍英苦笑着点了点头。 风四娘道：“你当然想不到那个又脏又臭的男人，就是江湖中的第一名公子连城璧。” 霍英叹道：“我的确连做梦也想不到。” 风四娘道：“所以你就碰了个大钉子，再也不好意思去见他们。” 霍英道：“给我钉子碰的，倒不是连公子。” 风四娘道：“不是他，是谁？” 霍英道：“也是个喜欢多管闲事的人，姓周，叫周至刚。” 风四娘道：“是不是那个'白马公子'？” 霍英点点头，道：“他好像本来就是连公子的老朋友，所以才认得出他们，后来还把他们夫妻两个人都拉回去了。” 风四娘道：“你是不是受了他的气？” 霍英红着脸，垂下头。 风四娘眼珠子转了转，忽然又跳起来，道：“走，你跟我走，我替你出气。” 霍英道：“真的？” 风四娘笑道：“莫忘记我本就是个人人见了都头痛的女妖怪，你遇见我，算你运气，他遇见我就算他倒了大霉了。” 霍英精神一振，展颜道：“我早就说过，随便你要到哪里去，我都跟着。” 风四娘嫣然道：“那么你不妨就暂时做我的跟班，保险没有人敢再欺负你。” 杜吟道：“可是我们只有两匹马。” 霍英笑道：“没关系，两个跟班可以共骑一匹马。” 杜吟也笑了，道：“不错，你是跟班，我当然也是跟班，别的跟班都是跟在马后面跑的，我们能够两个人骑一匹马，已经算运气不错了。” 风四娘银铃般笑道：“能够做我的跟班，本来就是你们的福气。” 所以风四娘忽然就有了两个跟班，刚才她还是孤孤单单的一个人，身上连喝酒的钱都没有，可是现在她已骑在一匹鞍辔鲜明的大马上，后面还跟着两个又年轻，又英俊的跟班。 这就是风四娘。 风四娘就是这么样一个人。 她这一生，永远是多姿多彩的，永远都充满了令人兴奋的波折和传奇。 无论遇着多么困难的事，她都有法子去解决，而且一下子就解决了。 无论遇着什么样的人，她都有法子去应付，而且能叫人高高兴兴的做她的跟班。 对付男人，她本来就有她独特的手段——也许只有一个男人是例外。 Xiao Shishilang! 对付男人的手段，她至少有好几百种，可是一遇见萧十一郎，她就连一种都使不出来。
