Chapter 20 Chapter 20 Searching for Searching

Feng Siniang said coldly: "Now you are Mrs. Lian again, so Xiao Shishilang can die. After he dies, you can go back to your Wugou Villa and be a pair of Wugou Heroes that everyone envies." Couple, even if Xiao Shishilang's bones have been fed to wild dogs, it has nothing to do with you." She turned around and said, "But I must go to save him, so I have to leave as soon as I finish speaking." No." She is really going out. Shen Bijun rushed up suddenly and grabbed her forcefully: "I'll go with you." Feng Siniang's eyes sparkled: "Really?"

"real!" "You really made up your mind this time?" Shen Bijun gritted his teeth and nodded: "No matter what, I want to see him again." Feng Siniang said: "Do you know where Lian Chengbi and the others went?" Shen Bijun raised his head and looked at her in surprise: "Don't you know?" Feng Siniang's heart sank again. The sun is setting towards the west. Autumn is short and the sunset is not far away. She still didn't know where to find Xiao Shishilang. The living room was actually very lively. The table was full of wine and dishes, Huo Ying and Du Yin were drinking happily.

It was Jin Fenghuang who accompanied them to drink. Her face was already red, her eyes were already drunk, she was giggling and said with a smile: "Come on, add another twenty cups, let's drink ten cups each." Huo Ying was pouring wine for her, when she saw Feng Siniang, she immediately stood up with a smile on her face, and said with a blushing face, "It's her who asked me to fight for the wine, I don't want to agree." Feng Siniang couldn't help laughing either—this kid searched and searched, and finally found someone to drink with him. She also knew why Jin Fenghuang would fight for wine with him.

When a person is in a bad mood, he always wants to have a drink or two. Of course Golden Phoenix was in a bad mood. No matter who is said to be an old woman and defeated by others, she will not be in a good mood, not to mention that she has always been a very proud woman. Although Feng Siniang wanted to laugh, she couldn't help but sighed. She knew better than anyone else the sorrow of a woman's twilight, and she suddenly felt that she had been too cruel to Jin Fenghuang. Jin Fenghuang was looking at her with squinted drunken eyes, and said, "Have you finished your whispering?"

Feng Siniang nodded. Jin Fenghuang said: "Do you dare to come and fight wine with me?" Feng Siniang shook her head. Jin Fenghuang laughed again, and said with a chuckle: "I knew you wouldn't dare, although your martial arts are good, but if you dare to drink with me, I will make you lie down on the ground after drinking." Feng Siniang said: "You are about to lie down now, I advise you to drink less." Jin Fenghuang widened his eyes and said, "You say I'm drunk? Alright, let's drink ten glasses alone and see who falls down?" Feng Siniang no longer wants to talk to her.

If you see a man drunk, the best way is to ignore him. Jin Fenghuang said: "Okay, it doesn't matter if you ignore me, but it's a pity that you will never find them." There seemed to be more to her words. Feng Siniang immediately asked: "Can you find them?" Jin Fenghuang said: "Zhou Zhigang is my husband, if I can't find him, who else can find him?" Feng Siniang said: "Do you know where he is?" Jin Fenghuang said: "Of course I know, but it's a pity I didn't tell you." She stared, then suddenly smiled and said: "Unless you come here to make amends and drink ten glasses of wine with me."

Feng Siniang rolled her eyes, then suddenly smiled, and said, "I think you're bragging." Jin Fenghuang stared and said, "What am I bragging about?" Feng Siniang said: "Where your husband is going, I will never tell you, I know." Jin Fenghuang said: "You know what a fart." Feng Siniang said leisurely: "If my wife is an old woman like you, I will never tell her when I go out, because I want to go out to find a beautiful girl." Jin Fenghuang jumped up and said loudly: "Who said he is looking for a woman, he is obviously going to Fenglin Ferry, he..."

Feng Siniang didn't even listen to what she was saying next. After only hearing the words "Fenglin Ferry", Feng Siniang has already pulled Shen Bijun out: "Let's go." Huo Ying and Du Yin also rushed out of the hall: "Where are we going?" "Of course it's Fenglin Ferry." The hall fell silent, only Jin Fenghuang was left standing there in a daze. There was the neighing of horses' hooves outside, and the hooves went away. Her eyes full of drunkenness suddenly became sober, and a vicious smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She knew that even if they searched Fenglin Ferry for ten years, they would still not be able to find Lian Chengbi and Xiao Shishilang. "Feng Siniang, Feng Siniang, you finally fell for me..." Jin Fenghuang laughed suddenly, laughed and drank all the wine on the table. Wine is bitter. Her eyes fell on the glass again. Because she really doesn't know where her husband has gone. In the past, no matter where he went, he would definitely tell him, but now... When a woman reaches her twilight, not only can she not regain her lost youth, she can't win back her husband's heart either.

"I'm not an old woman...I'm not..." With tears in her eyes, she smashed all the wine glasses to pieces, and suddenly fell down on the table, crying bitterly. It's a pity that Feng Siniang couldn't hear her cries. The straight road splits into two here. "Which way should Fenglin Ferry go?" "have no idea." "I know there is a Fenglin Ferry on the Yellow River." "There is no Yellow River in Jiangnan, only the Yangtze River." "I've never heard of the Fenglin Ferry on the Yangtze River." "You haven't heard of it, someone must have."

The setting sun is all over the sky, and there is a small tea pavilion at the three-way intersection ahead. Tea kiosks usually sell wine, some simple appetizers, and sometimes even fried rice and noodle soup. "Why don't we just stop in front to ask directions, drink some wine and eat something casually." "Yes, you will have the strength to do things when you are full." Young people are always unwilling to treat their stomachs too badly. No matter what they do, they will never forget to eat. Feng Siniang really didn't want to stop, it was getting dark now, she had to find Xiao Shishilang before the moon rose, otherwise she might never find it. But she didn't know her way, and she was very thirsty. The smell of wine, braised beef and pancakes wafted in the wind. Huo Ying said with a smile: "This smell seems to be not bad, and it must not be bad." Feng Siniang glared at him, and said bitterly: "I shouldn't have brought you here, you are too delicious." Although she said so in her mouth, she didn't think so in her heart. She needs help. Both Huo Ying and Du Yin's martial arts are good. It seems that the younger generation's martial arts are generally higher than those of the previous generation. Strangely, they were also happy to be her servants. Shen Bijun doesn't understand, she will never understand what kind of person Feng Siniang is, let alone Feng Siniang's style. They are two completely different people, so their destinies are also different. Shen Bijun walked into the wine booth with his head down. She had never strutted the road like Feng Siniang, nor had she ever smiled like Feng Siniang. In fact, she hasn't really smiled for a long time, even she doesn't know how long? Her heart has always been chaotic, and now it is even more chaotic. ——So what if Xiao Shishilang can be found now?Do you want her to abandon Lian Chengbi again and follow Xiao Shishilang desperately? If Feng Siniang guessed correctly, the mastermind of all these conspiracies is really Lianchengbi, and she doesn't know what to do? Why did she always have so many unsolvable troubles and pains in her life? Feng Siniang was ordering loudly: "Cut a few catties of beef for us, fry a big bowl of rice, and prepare some high-quality fodder for the four horses outside." Now, of course, they don't need two of them to ride a horse. She had already selected four fine Mongolian horses from the stables of the White Horse Villa, and took away the bag of silver in the cashier. In her view, this is a matter of course, and there is no sense of crime at all. But Shen Bijun didn't understand. She never understood how Feng Siniang would ride his horse and use his money when she was going against someone? If she harbors a grudge against someone, even if she starves to death, she will never drink a sip of water from that person. Feng Siniang always seems to be able to solve the most difficult things with the simplest method. She tends to make simple things complicated. Because she was such a person in the first place, that's why she caused this fate. Isn't fate of your own making? The beef was served, and it was really well cooked. Feng Siniang ate a few yuan in one go, and then began to ask the old man selling wine in the wine booth: "Is there a Fenglin Ferry nearby?" "Yes, it's just outside Fenglin Town." Feng Siniang heaved a sigh of relief, her appetite whetted, and she picked up the biggest piece of beef: "Which way do you want to go to Fenglin Town?" "The one on the right hand side." "Is it far?" "not too far." Feng Siniang picked up the bowl of wine, drank it down, and said with a smile: "Since it's not too far away, we can go on our way after we're full. Anyway, we can arrive when it gets dark." The old wine seller nodded and said, "If you go on horseback, you will definitely arrive before dark tomorrow." Feng Siniang was taken aback, she almost choked on the wine, and grabbed the old man's skirt: "What did you say?" The old man was also taken aback: "I... I didn't say anything." "You said we won't be able to reach Fenglin Town until tomorrow night." "Tomorrow night will be the soonest, and this section of the road will take a day and a night." "It takes a day and a night to walk, and you still say it's not too far away?" The old man smiled and said: "A person has to live for at least several decades, how can it be too much to walk only one day?" Feng Siniang was stunned. Look at the old man's white hair and wrinkled face, a day or two, to him, it's really nothing special. But for Feng Siniang, as long as it is half an hour late, it is very likely that she will regret it for the rest of her life. Although it is the same thing, people's views may not be the same. Because everyone has their own ideas and will look at this matter from different angles. This is human nature. Regarding human nature, Feng Siniang obviously doesn't know as much as she imagined. She still had hope in her heart, and asked again: "Is there a shortcut to go from here?" "No." The old man said slowly: "Even if there is, I don't know. I have never taken a shortcut in my life, so I can live longer than others." There was a smug smile on his face: "I This year is seventy-nine." Feng Siniang was stunned again. Now she doesn't know what to do. After all, there are many difficulties in this world, and even she can't solve them. Huo Ying and Du Yin are still teenagers who "can't let go of their worries", they are still whispering, talking and laughing. Huo Yingzheng said quietly with a smile: "It seems that this old man and Zhang Guolao of the Eight Immortals Boat are a natural match." Feng Siniang suddenly jumped up and grabbed him: "What did you say?" Huo Ying was taken aback again, and said softly, "I... I didn't say anything." "Did you just talk about the Eight Immortals boat?" "seems like it." "Where is this boat?" Huo Ying smiled: "That's not a boat, it's... a brothel." Feng Siniang let go of her hand, sat down, her heart sank. Huo Ying was still explaining: "There are eight girls in the brothel, nicknamed the Eight Immortals, and the funniest one is Zhang Guolao. She is obviously an old woman, but she still dresses up beautifully. When you are drunk, you will say something half-crazy and half-insane, which others cannot understand." Du Yin also couldn't help laughing: "It's strange that there are still many people who come to see her specially, but her guests are more than others." Feng Siniang kept a straight face, and said coldly: "You are also here to see her? Are you also her guests?" Du Yin blushed and said, "Xiao Huo dragged me there." Huo Yingdao: "I also wanted to see this old monster out of curiosity, but it was a pity that we went there by chance. Although we saw her once, we didn't hear her wonderful remarks." Feng Siniang said: "Why?" Huo Ying smiled and said, "Because she has too many guests." It seems that this old monster must also know how to take advantage of men's psychology. Huo Ying said again: "We wanted to wait another day, but unfortunately that place has been taken over today." Feng Siniang asked casually, "Who took over?" Huo Yingdao: "I was picked up by a guest surnamed Yu, and I heard that he is a wealthy customer." Feng Siniang jumped up again, her eyes sparkled: "Where is this place?" Huo Ying said: "It's in Spring River City." Du Yin said, "That's where we met Zhou Zhigang." Feng Siniang has pulled Shen Bijun to rush out: "Let's go." Huo Ying and Du Yin also rushed out of the wine booth: "Where are you going?" "Of course it's the Eight Immortals Ship in Spring River City." night. The lights are bright, and the night is already deep. "Which street is the Eight Immortals Boat on?" "In Peach Blossom Alley." Peach Blossom Alley is not narrow, but the walls are very high, behind the high walls there is the sound of music and music from time to time. Feng Siniang took the lead, rushed in, and easily found the Eight Immortals Ship. The lantern at the gate is still on, and the six characters on the lantern are also shining: "Eight Immortals Ship." "Rouge sea." The two black lacquered gates were tightly closed. When the "Shark King" wanted to eat people, of course no one was allowed to come in. Has he already eaten Xiao Shishilang? Feng Siniang jumped off the horse and said, "Let's break in." Shen Bijun hesitated and said, "Just break in like this? What if I find the wrong place?" Feng Siniang said: "It's bad luck for them to find the wrong one." Shen Bijun didn't understand again: "It's their bad luck?" Feng Siniang said: "If I can't find anyone, I will demolish their houses." Shen Bijun said: "But they are not wrong, they did not ask you to come here." Feng Siniang ignored her at all, rushed over and kicked the door forcefully. The door was so strong that she couldn't kick it open, so Huo Ying and Du Yin helped to kick it. Shen Bijun could only smile wryly. Even if you kill her, she can't do this kind of thing, but after Feng Siniang kicks open the door, she will follow in. She also has her principles in doing things, but is this principle right?is it wrong?Even she can't tell the difference. The door has been knocked open. Feng Siniang dragged Shen Bijun in, but no one came out to ask questions or stop her along the way. What about people?Are you all drunk? In the brightly lit hall, there was a sudden burst of charming singing. A woman with hair full of jewels and emerald dresses, holding a wine glass in her hand, humming a little tune, staggered out, she really seemed to be drunk. She was wearing a long dress that dragged the floor. Although she was drunk, she was still very beautiful - she seemed very beautiful from a distance under the light. But as soon as she got closer, Feng Siniang immediately realized that she was already an old woman, although she had a lot of makeup on her face, she still couldn't hide the wrinkles on her face. "Zhang Guolao." Huo Ying was the first to rush over: "Where's your guest?" Zhang Guolao raised his head, glanced at him up and down, and laughed: "I know you, you came yesterday." She suddenly sighed again: "It's a pity that you came late today." "Is everyone gone?" "Not yet." Zhang Guolao shook his head, and laughed again: "They won't leave, even if you drive them away with a stick, they won't leave either." "why?" "Why don't you go in and see for yourself?" Feng Siniang had rushed in, and immediately understood what she meant. People really haven't left, and never will. The living room was brightly lit, and the table was filled with delicacies from mountains and seas, as well as altars of fine wine. Everyone is wearing bright and gorgeous clothes, looking very majestic and airy. Unfortunately, they are all dead. "Shark King" Fish Eats People, Golden Bodhisattva, "Golden Bow and Silver Pills to Stab Tiger Knife, Chasing Clouds to Catch the Moon and Floating on the Water" Li Qingfeng, Master Ren, Xuanyuan Sancheng, Xuanyuan Sanque. When they were alive, they were all prominent heroes for a while, and they were all wealthy martial arts magnates. It's a pity that they are all dead now, and each of them has been slashed on the head. One blow is fatal. Who has such a sharp knife? Who has such a quick shot? Xiao Shishilang! Who else is there besides Xiao Shishilang? Feng Siniang's whole body was already cold, and Shen Bijun's heart was even colder. The six of them were not the only ones who died, apart from Mr. Zhang Guo outside, there was not even a single living person here, and even the women had also died under the knife. A fatal blow. Xiao Shishilang, Xiao Shishilang, why is your heart so cruel? The dead no longer bleed. Shen Bijun couldn't help crying, she was not only mourning for these dead people, but also mourning for herself. The person she loved with all her heart turned out to be a cold-blooded executioner. Feng Siniang exhaled lightly. Although the scene was tragic and terrifying, Xiao Shishilang finally did not die here. As long as he is alive, everything else can wait until later. Shen Bijun suddenly turned his head and stared at her with teary eyes: "You still say that I hated him by mistake?" Feng Siniang sighed, and said: "No matter what, he is definitely not as ruthless as you imagined." Shen Bijun bit his lip, and said coldly: "He's really not, he can't be regarded as a human being at all." Feng Siniang said: "Could it be that you have determined that these people died at his hands?" Shen Bijun said: "Isn't it?" Feng Siniang said: "Absolutely not, he never killed an innocent person." Shen Bijun said: "Then who killed these people?" Feng Siniang said: "I can ask, and I must. Fortunately, there is still a living person here." The courtyard was bleak and cold, and even the lights seemed to have become gloomy, like will-o'-the-wisps. Although Zhang Guolao was still alive, but under the lamp, his face looked like a dead person. She had already sat down, sitting on the stone steps in front of the porch, laughing and singing non-stop. What she sang was originally a very romantic ditty, but listening to it at this moment, it seemed indescribably miserable and surprised. Feng Siniang walked over and sat down too; sitting beside her, she asked softly, "You were here all this time?" Zhang Guolao nodded. Feng Siniang said: "Did you witness what happened here just now?" Zhang Guo said: "Although I am old, I can still see and hear. I am not dead yet." She suddenly laughed again: "That kid thought I was frightened to death. I must pretend to be dead." It looks alike." "That kid" was clearly the murderer. She tricked him by pretending to be dead so she could live. A woman who has been in a brothel for decades, even if she is not an old goblin, is already an old fox. A real old fox, no matter what the situation, has a way to survive. Feng Siniang breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again: "When that kid killed someone, did you also see it?" Zhang Guo said: "Yes." Feng Siniang said: "Did he kill all these people?" Zhang Guolao nodded again, an expression of indescribable fear suddenly appeared on his face, and he murmured: "He kills people really fast...he has a very, very fast knife." Feng Siniang said: "Do you know who he is?" Zhang Guo said: "Of course I know, he is a dead man." Feng Siniang was startled, and said: "How can a dead person kill someone?" Zhang Guo said: "Although he is not dead now, he is a dead man." It seems that what Huo Ying said is indeed right, what she said is indeed a bit crazy, and people can't understand it. Feng Siniang could only bear with it, and continued to ask: "He is clearly still alive, why is he a dead person..." Zhang Guo said: "Because he wants to kill someone, others must kill him too, and he must not live long, so in my eyes, he is already a dead person." Although what she said was a bit crazy, it was not completely unreasonable. Feng Siniang forced a smile, and said: "Whether he is dead or alive, can you tell me, what is his last name? What does he look like?" Zhang Guo said: "He is very good-looking, he is a man..." She laughed again and said, "I like men, especially good-looking men, but...why is the more beautiful a man is, the more ruthless his heart is... ...why the more attractive a man is, the more ruthless he is..." Although she was smiling, there were tears on her face, and she burst into tears, crying like a child. Of course she has a lot of heartbreak. Whoever has been in a whorehouse for so many years is bound to have a lot of grief. Feng Siniang's heart was also suffering. Although she knew that Xiao Shishilang's heart was not cruel, nor was he really ruthless. But he is indeed a good-looking man, and he does have a very fast knife. ——Did these people really die under his knife? ——Why did he make such a murderous move? ——Where are his people now? Feng Siniang couldn't help but bit her lip hard. ——Why does this person always appear when he shouldn't. ——When others wanted to find him, he couldn't even see the shadow of the person. Shen Bijun had been staring at her, and suddenly said, "Master Ren, is he the one they invited today?" Feng Siniang said: "Yes." Shen Bijun said: "When you broke up with him, is he going to come here?" Feng Siniang said: "Yes." Shen Bijun said: "So he must have been here." Feng Siniang said: "Yes." Jun Shen Bi said: "Now he has left." Feng Siniang couldn't help sighing again - when you should stay, you don't stay, when you shouldn't go, you just want to go, why do you always like to torture people like this? Shen Bijun said: "When they were alive, they would never let him go, because they came here to deal with him." Feng Siniang admitted. Shen Bijun said: "So when he left, they must have died. If it wasn't him, who would it be?" Her face was also full of misery and pain, and she said with tears: "I shouldn't have come, you He shouldn't have come, he refused to bring you here because he didn't want you to see him kill people... Why did you come? Why should I come?" She said the last two sentences over and over again, saying it once and shedding tears once. Her tears kept flowing, and her people had already walked out. Although they walked slowly, they didn't look back. Feng Siniang didn't keep her either. Even if you stay, you can't keep it—even if you can keep it, so what? If a person's heart is broken, who else can make her change her mind? Even Feng Siniang couldn't. Unless she can resurrect the dead and tell who the real murderer is. she can't. Unless she can find Xiao Shishilang and ask him to explain it himself. Neither can she. The dead will never be brought back to life, and after Xiao Shishilang leaves, it may be difficult to find him again. The wind in the yard was so cold, and the cold autumn leaves fell one by one with the wind, falling on her body and on her hair. She didn't move, as if she didn't feel anything at all. But her tears were also shed. She didn't know how long it took before she suddenly realized that Zhang Guolao's crying had stopped, and his body seemed to be toppled by the wind. She couldn't help but take her hand. The hand is cold, colder than the wind, cold and shriveled, like a dead leaf in the wind. Her person has also withered like a dead leaf. Isn't it considered lucky for a woman like her to have spent such a life in this kind of place and die in such a peaceful manner? But she died too lonely, too lonely, if she could die earlier, when she was young and beautiful, maybe someone would shed tears for her. It's a pity that when she died, her person had withered. Isn't this also her misfortune? What exactly is luck?Still unlucky?Maybe even she can't tell the difference. The only lucky person is the murderer. Because the only witness to his crime is now unable to speak. Will he get away with it forever?
