Chapter 11 The Eleventh Sword Qi

Everyone looked up at the group of pigeons, and then everyone's eyes were fixed on Wuji. Tang Que said: "These black pigeons were specially trained by my seventh uncle. They fly twice as fast and three times farther than ordinary pigeons. Flying in the dark, they are not easy to be spotted." Wuji listened quietly. He hoped that Tang Que would talk more, and listening to others would also relax his nerves. He couldn't help admitting that he was nervous, and until now, he hadn't figured out a countermeasure. Tang Que said: "My seventh uncle trained this batch of pigeons, although it is to deliver a secret message, but according to him, this kind of pigeon has also been listed as the first-class pigeon in the pigeon breed recognized by the world. Premium variety!"

He squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "But I can guarantee that this kind of pigeon is not tasty at all." Wuji said, "Have you eaten?" Tang Que said: "As long as it is edible, I will try my best to get a few to taste, otherwise I may not even be able to sleep at night." Wuji said: "It is said that human flesh can also be eaten, have you ever eaten human flesh?" He didn't want to know if Tang Que had eaten human flesh, but he was deliberately forcing Tang Que to speak. No matter who is talking, their attention will inevitably be distracted, not to mention what they are talking about now is the topic that Tang Que is most interested in.

If he rushes out now, it is not completely hopeless, but the chance of success is not great. If he took advantage of the opportunity to catch Tang Que and took Tang Que as a hostage, his chances would be much better. Unfortunately, he was really not sure. This person who looks like he is stupider than a pig is not only quick-witted, but also has unfathomable martial arts. Tang Que was publishing his thoughts on human flesh: "It is said that there are three things you should not eat: sick people, old people, and angry people!" Wuji asked: "An angry person, why can't he eat it?"

Tang Que said: "Because when people get angry, the meat will turn sour." Wuji is ready to shoot. Although he was not sure, he still wanted to make a move, because he had no second choice. Unexpectedly, Tang Que stood up suddenly and said, "We'll talk about these things later, let's go now!" Wuji's heart sank. Since even his last chance had been missed, he could only ask, "Where are we going?" Tang Que said, "I'll take you to meet someone." Wuji asked, "Who are you going to see?" Tang Que said: "Old ancestor!"

He said again: "Her old man has already ordered me to take you to see her as soon as the pigeon flies back." Wuji immediately stood up, the person he most wanted to see now was his ancestor. It suddenly occurred to him that this was his chance. If the old ancestor could be restrained and her was taken as a hostage, the people of the Tang family would not only send him out of Tangjiabao respectfully, but maybe he could trade her for another life. Shangguan Ren's life. At least it was easier to deal with an old woman in her 70s or 80s than Tang Que. Wuji smiled and said, "Do you still want to cover my eyes?"

Tang Que said: "No need." He narrowed his needle-like smiling eyes again: "If what you said is true, then you are our own, and you can come and go freely in the garden from now on." Wuji said, "What if I'm not telling the truth?" Tang Que said indifferently: "Then once you go in this time, I'm afraid you won't come out alive again, so why should I cover your eyes?" Wuji said: "You really don't have to." Seeing the scale and momentum of Tangjiabao, anyone can imagine that their "garden" must be a place with a huge scope and strict security.

After you actually go in, you will find that your thinking is still not quite right. The size of the garden is much larger than anyone imagined, but it doesn't appear to be heavily guarded. Walking across a small wooden bridge with vermilion railings and green boards, and passing through a forest of colorful flowers, you can see the magnificent houses built on the hillside. From the outside, the layout of each building is almost exactly the same, with no distinctive appearance at all, and of course there will be no house number or street name. So even if you know which house the person you're looking for lives in, it's still hard to find.

On both sides of the path paved with bluestone blocks, there are high dusty walls, which seem to be the same at all. Every road is like this. Tang Que took Wuji around three times and twice, left and right, and finally stopped in front of an extremely wide and tall black gate. "It's here." He said, "The ancestors must have been waiting for us." Behind the gate is a very large yard, and through the yard is a very large hall. There are large tables and chairs in the hall, and large calligraphy and paintings hang on the high walls. Everything in Tangjiabao seems to be a little bigger than normal, even the tea bowls.

Tang Que said, "Sit down." After Wuji sat down, his people disappeared. Wuji originally thought that he must have gone in to report and would come out soon, but unexpectedly he never showed up. The courtyard is lonely, no human voices can be heard, let alone human shadows. Sitting alone in this empty hall, Wuji couldn't bear to rush out several times. At this moment and here, he can't act rashly. Although he couldn't see anyone, since the ancestor was here, there would never be no guards here. An invisible guard is far more terrifying than one that can be seen. He understands this.

He can "bear" far more than most people! The bowl of tea that was served by a boy with long hair just now was scalding hot, but it is now cold. After an unknown amount of time, a weak, gentle, but majestic voice finally sounded in the hall: "Tea, please." Wuji could tell that it was the voice of his ancestor, and he had already heard her voice when he was interrogated last time. This time he could only hear her voice, but he still couldn't see her. Wuji's heart sank again. If he can't even see her people, how can he restrain her? He picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

Very bitter tea. The old ancestor's voice said again: "The Tang family is famous for its poison hidden weapons, aren't you afraid that this bowl of tea might be poisonous?" Wuji smiled and said: "If the ancestors don't want me to live anymore, they can put me to death at any time, why should they poison this bowl of tea?" The old man laughed, at least it sounded like he was. "You are very calm." She said, "I didn't expect you to be so calm at such a young age!" Mowgli kept smiling. Even he himself admired himself a little. Under such circumstances, he could still sit here and drink tea in a peaceful manner. The old ancestor said again: "You are a good boy. Our Tang family needs someone like you. As long as you stay well, I will never treat you badly." She never mentioned the news that the pigeon brought back. Is this another trap? Did she do this for another purpose? But her tone was not only gentler, but also absolutely devoid of malice. Although Wuji was not stupid, nor was he slow to respond, he couldn't help being stunned. He really couldn't figure out her intentions, and he didn't know what the old ancestor would say next? Unexpectedly, the ancestors would never speak again. The courtyard was silent and there was no one around. After an unknown amount of time, Tang Que came over with a smile and said, "You passed the test!" Wuji was at a loss and said, "Have I passed the test?" Holding a scroll in his hand, Tang Que said, "This is the investigation result brought back by those pigeons, do you want to see it?" Of course Mowgli wants to see it. Spread out the scroll, there are only eight words on it: "There is indeed a person, and it is confirmed that it is correct." Wuji couldn't figure it out, even if he broke a big hole in his head, he couldn't figure it out. ——Is there really such a person as "Li Yutang" in Xitou Village of Jixi? ——Could it be that the person sent by the Tang family to investigate, perfunctory, did not investigate at all, and just wrote this report indiscriminately and sent it back? ——Could it be that this person was bribed by Wuji's friend on the way and fabricated this report? There are only three explanations for this situation. These three explanations seem to make sense, but when you think about it carefully, they are absolutely impossible. ——Even if there really was a person named Li Yutang in Xitou Village, his background would never be the same as what Wuji said, and there would never be such a coincidence in the world. ——The Tang family has strict rules, and the children sent out will never dare to be perfunctory, and those who falsely report the truth are even less likely to be bribed. ——No one else knew about this matter, and it was impossible for anyone to bribe him. If none of these three inferences can be established, what is going on? Wuji didn't think about it anymore, he had encountered several unexplainable things in the past few days. There must be one and the same mysterious key among these things. It's just that I haven't been able to find it yet. In any case, he finally passed this level again.He only has the mentality of "just passing by" and waits for changes. He still has to "be patient". Just because he can bear it, he has gone through several crises that were absolutely hopeless. Wuji slowly rolled up the note, returned it to Tang Que, and asked lightly, "Where is the old ancestor?" Tang Que said: "The old ancestor has seen you and is very satisfied with you." Wuji said: "You won't let me visit her old man?" Tang Que said: "I also want to take you to visit her old man, but it's a pity that I can't even see myself." He sighed and said with a wry smile: "Even I haven't seen her old man for a long time!" Wuji said: "She rarely sees people?" Tang Que said: "Very few." ——Why is she missing? ——Is it because she looks weird and can't see people? Wuji had another idea, which was even more extreme. The real ancestor was dead, and another person wanted to replace her in power, so he kept his mourning secret and pretended to be her voice to issue orders to the children of the Tang family. Then of course she cannot let people see the true face of the "old ancestor". Although this idea is absolutely impossible, it is not completely impossible. There are some absurd and bizarre things in the world, and the real things are sometimes even more bizarre than "legendary stories". Wuji didn't think about it any more. The power struggle within the Tang family has nothing to do with him. All he asked was, "Is it time for us to go now?" Tang Que asked, "Where are you going?" Wuji said, "Aren't we going to see Shangguan Ren?" Tang Que said, "Of course we will." Wuji said: "Then should we go to his place now?" Tang Que smiled and said, "What do you think this is?" Wuji asked, "He lives here?" Tang Que didn't speak, but someone outside the door answered: "Yes, I live here." Wuji's heart was beating again, and the blood in his body was boiling again. He recognized that it was Shangguan Yan's voice, and he also heard Shangguan Yan's footsteps. The sworn enemy is about to meet him now. This time they are not only under the same roof, but will soon meet face to face. This time, will Shangguan Ren recognize him as Zhao Wuji? April 24th, noon. Zhao Wuji finally met Shangguan Ren! Shangguan Ren is eight feet tall, with broad shoulders and long arms. Every step he takes is five inches longer than others. He calculated it himself, and every step he took was exactly one foot and seven inches, never an inch more, and never an inch less. Everything he did was calculated with absolute precision, everything he did was absolutely clockwork. His life is very regular and self-control is very strict. He has three meals a day, which are fixed and quantitative. Not only did he eat very little, he didn't even drink much water, and usually he didn't even touch his lips. Now he is still celibate, he never gets close to women, and he has absolutely no interest in other people's obsessions. His interest is only two words—— that power! Anyone who saw him could definitely see that he was a man of great power. He is taciturn, with a stable and cold attitude. No matter when he appears, he appears to be full of energy and fighting spirit. With a pair of piercing eyes, he seems to be able to see through the hearts of others at any time. But he didn't realize that the person standing in front of him was Zhao Wuji. Mowgli has become too much. Wuji sat down again. He kept telling himself in his heart: Be patient!To wait for!Never wait until you are absolutely sure. Shangguan Ren was staring at him with a pair of sharp eyes, and suddenly asked: "What were you thinking just now?" Wuji said: "I didn't think about anything!" Shangguan Ren said: "Then you should have known that I live here." He turned his head to look at a pair of couplets hanging on the wall. "The house is full of flowers and drunk with three thousand guests, One sword light cold forty states. " The brushwork is vigorous and powerful, and what the previous paragraph says is exactly: "Ban Gong teaches righteousness." Shangguan Ren said coldly: "If you didn't think about anything, how could you not even notice this kind of thing?" Wuji said lightly, "Maybe it's because I rarely look around when I'm in other people's homes." Shangguan Ren stopped talking. Wuji said: "I am not an elegant person who likes to recite poems and contradict each other, so..." Shangguan Ren said: "So what?" Wuji suddenly stood up and cupped his fists and said, "Goodbye." Shangguan Ren said: "You want to go?" Wuji said: "Since what you are looking for is not someone like me, why don't I leave?" Shangguan Ren stared at him and said, "What kind of person are you?" Wuji said: "If you have the knowledge to know people, you don't need me to tell you. You should be able to see what kind of person I am. If you don't even have the knowledge to know people, why should I say it?" Shangguan Ren stared at him for a long time, and suddenly said: "Very good." He turned around and faced Tang Que with a gentler attitude: "This is exactly the person I'm looking for!" Tang Que smiled. Shangguan Ren said: "I asked someone to tidy up the backyard, he can move here tomorrow." Tang Que smiled and said, "Then I can go to eat now." Shangguan Ren said: "Why doesn't the big man stay in the house for a light meal?" Tang Que immediately shook his head and said, "You can ask me to do anything, but if you tell me to eat here, I dare not eat." Shangguan Ren said: "Don't you dare?" Tang Que said: "I'm afraid of getting sick." Shangguan Ren said: "How can you get sick?" Tang Que said: "If I eat too many vegetarian dishes, I will get sick. If I don't eat meat for a meal, I will definitely get sick, and I must be very sick." He sighed: "None of the four dishes you have for lunch today is meat." Shangguan Ren said: "How do you know?" Tang Que said: "I have already inquired about it just now. Food is the most important thing for the people. How can I not care about this kind of thing?" Big fish and meat piled up the table again, and Tang Que was munching happily again. Wuji really couldn't imagine how a person who had just had such an early meal could continue to eat now. Tang Que could eat it. Tang Que stopped, looked at Wuji, and suddenly said, "I sympathize with you." Wuji said: "Do you sympathize with me?" Tang Que said, "I sympathize with you very, very much." Wuji said, "Why?" Tang Que said: "Because you are about to move to Shangguan Ren's place. If I were you, I wouldn't be able to live there for a day." Wuji laughed. Tang Que said: "Not only are the food unpalatable, but the people are also difficult to deal with." He sighed: "You should be able to see by now, what a difficult person Shangguan Ren is." Mowgli has to admit it. Tang Que said: "But he is the most difficult person to deal with there." Wuji said, "Who is it?" Tang Que said: "It's Lian Lian." Wuji said: "Lianlian? Who is Lianlian?" Tang Que said: "Lian Lian is Shangguan Ren's precious daughter, even if I see her, I will have a big head like a bucket." Of course Wuji knew that Shangguan Ren had an only daughter named "Lian Lian". Of course, Lian Lian also knew that the second master Zhao Jian had an only son named "Wuji". But Wuji was not worried that Lian Lian would recognize him. Not long after Lian Lian was born, her mother passed away, perhaps because of the death of his beloved wife, so Shangguan Ren didn't love this daughter as much as other people love their only daughter. Many people will resent their children because of the death of their wives. Although he knows in his heart that the children are innocent, he still thinks that without this child, his wife would not die. Everyone will have the idea of ​​blame and blame, which is one of the most primitive weaknesses of human beings. Lian Lian has been sickly since she was a child, and sick children will inevitably become a little irritable and weird. A father who was as busy as Shangguan Yan couldn't take good care of such a daughter. So when she was very young, Shangguan Ren sent her to Mount Hua to recuperate and learn art. In fact, recovering from illness and learning art is probably just an excuse. The real main reason is probably that he doesn't want to see this daughter at all, because when he sees her, he will think of his dead wife. This is a no-brainer idea. What about Shangguan Ren's own thoughts?No one knows. Human psychology is inherently subtle and complex, and it is definitely beyond the guesswork of outsiders. Wuji didn't expect Lianlian to come back to her father again. Tang Que started eating the third chicken again. He eats chicken in a special way, eating the dead meat from the breast first, then the head and legs, and finally the wings and neck. Because chicken has the most movement in its wings and neck, the meat is also the tastiest. The best part, of course, should be saved for last. Tang Que also made a special statement: "When no one is robbing me, I will always save the best part for the last." Wuji said: "If someone robs you, will you eat the most delicious part first?" Tang Que said: "Even if someone snatches it from me, I won't eat it." Wuji said, "Why?" Tang Que said: "Eat the best part first, then what's the point of eating other parts?" Wuji said: "Are you willing to give up the delicious part to others?" Tang Que said: "Of course I don't want to." He added: "If you give the best to others, you are an idiot." Wuji said: "You don't want to eat first, and you don't want to let others eat, what should you do?" Tang Que smiled and said, "Of course I have a way, the best way in the world, do you want to know?" Wuji said, "Think." Tang Que said: "In that case, I will grab the best part first, put it in the small bowl in front of me, and then grab the rest from others. After I grab it all, I will eat myself In a bowl." Wuji said: "Good idea." Tang Que said: "If you want to learn how to eat like me, there is one thing you must not forget." Wuji said, "What's the matter?" Tang Que said: "While you are eating, you also have to teach others a lesson." Wuji said: "I've already grabbed all the best food, why should I teach others a lesson?" Tang Que said: "Because others will not like the way you eat, so you have to preemptively teach him a lesson." Wuji said, "How should I teach a lesson?" Tang Que said: "You have to put on a straight face and tell him that you must leave good fortune in life, so you must save delicious food for last, and your attitude must be very serious and sincere, and you must eat quickly , before others have figured this out, you must eat up all the food in the bowl in front of you, and then run away as soon as possible.” He said seriously: "This is the most important point, and you must not forget it." Wuji asked, "Why should I run away so quickly?" Tang Que said: "Because if you don't sneak out quickly, others will probably beat you up." Mowgli laughed. He is really smiling. For so many days, this was the first time he laughed so happily. Now his "time limit" has been extended indefinitely, and now he has entered the heart of Tangjiabao, tomorrow he will move to Shangguan Ren's house, he can see Shangguan Ren anytime Opportunity to start. Although he hasn't really achieved his goal yet, the distance is not too far away. This is his idea. Of course he would think so now, no one could predict what would happen in the future. If he could predict what would happen in the future, then instead of laughing, he might not even be able to cry. Night, quiet night. Today can be regarded as Wuji's most rewarding day. After lunch, he finally got rid of Tang Que and slept soundly, because he still has something to do at night. Tomorrow he will go to Shangguan Ren's place, and after entering the restricted area of ​​the garden, his actions will no longer be as convenient as it is now. So tonight he must contact Lei Zhentian, ask Lei Zhentian to draw him the detailed picture of that house, and try to get Lei Zhentian to give him some firearms from the Thunder Hall. He didn't want to use this kind of firearm to deal with Shangguan Ren, but if he had some such extremely destructive firearms with him, it would be useful sooner or later. Blame it on Thunderbolt Hall. He believed that Lei Zhentian would definitely not refuse. Days of anxiety finally came to fruition. This time he slept soundly, and when he woke up, it was already dark. Tang Que didn't come to see him for dinner, and no one bothered him. He put on his clothes and got up, pushed open the window, and there was silence outside, as if the night was very deep. He decided to go to Lei Zhentian immediately. Although he already knew how to get out of the woods, he still didn't know how to get through the open space outside the woods. This is another problem. He solved this problem in the simplest and most direct way. He just walked over with a big swagger. Sure enough, no one stopped him. Tang Que must have told the people on the dark card nearby not to restrict his actions too much. Today's weather is very good, it looks like he is taking a walk to enjoy the flowers, not to mention that this place is not within the restricted area of ​​Tangjiabao. The flowers were in full bloom, and he deliberately walked around the garden a few times to make sure no one was paying attention to him. Then he found the rose tree, first used his feet to poke away the soil below, pulled up the flower roots with the fastest movement, and drilled in. He had accurately calculated the length of this tunnel, and he also carried a fire pocket with him. He believed that as soon as he approached the entrance of the basement, Lei Zhentian would find out. A person who is blind has very sensitive ears. But he was wrong. According to his calculations, he had already reached the entrance of the basement, but there was still no movement inside. He crawled forward a few more feet, and even coughed lightly, but Lei Zhentian still didn't respond. Even if he fell asleep, he wouldn't sleep so deeply. Did he slip out again? Although Wuji had a fire bag on him, he didn't use it, just in case. There is a little gunpowder everywhere here, and he will never take the risk unless it is absolutely necessary. He fumbled forward again, when his hand suddenly touched something, it was the leg of Lei Zhentian's big wooden table. He stretched out his middle finger and flicked the table leg twice, but there was no response. In addition to the pungent smell of saltpeter and sulfur, there seemed to be a very strange smell in the air. He seemed to have smelled this smell before, he took two deep breaths, and he was completely sure. It's fishy! His nose is also very good, and he is sure that his judgment will not be wrong. Did Lei Zhentian have an accident?The Tang family finally sent someone to kill him! But at this moment, Wuji heard someone breathing again. This person had obviously held his breath for a long time, and now he couldn't hold it anymore, so the first two breaths were very heavy. This person held his breath, of course to prevent Wuji from discovering that there was another person in this place. Of course, this person will definitely not be Lei Zhentian. Who is this guy? Has Lei Zhentian been murdered by him? If he was a member of the Tang family, he must have been ordered to kill Lei Zhentian. Since he came here by order, there is no need to be afraid of being discovered by others. If he is not from the Tang family, how can he enter this basement?Why did he come to kill Lei Zhentian? Wuji remembered Lei Zhentian's words again: "Without my permission, no one would dare to come here... As long as I am happy, I can die with him at any time." The gunpowder in this basement is still there. When Lei Zhentian found out that this person was coming to kill him, why didn't he trigger the gunpowder? Could it be that Lei Zhentian found this person himself? It was because Lei Zhentian never expected him to have malicious intentions, that's why he was murdered by him! Wuji thought a lot, and also thought of the most terrifying point.Since this person does not want to be discovered, he must kill Wuji to silence his words. Of course, he has also heard Wuji's voice, and it is very likely that he has already started to act now. Wuji immediately began to act. It's a pity that the sound of breathing can no longer be heard, and he has no idea where this person is. He quietly walked around the table leg, just about to sneak under the table—— Suddenly, there was a sudden sound of wind, and a sharp cold wind pierced towards him head-on. This is sword energy! Although Wuji can't see it, he can feel it. Before the sword's edge arrived, Senhan's sword energy was already approaching his eyebrows.Not only fast and accurate, but also extremely powerful.Wuji hadn't seen this person yet, but he already knew that he had met a terrifying opponent. If he also has a sword in his hand, it's not that he can't catch the sword with his speed. It's a pity that he is unarmed, even if he can dodge this sword, he can't dodge the second sword. Since this person's sword can emit such a cold sword energy, it is not difficult to imagine the high level of swordsmanship. No matter how Wuji dodges, his movements will never be faster than the changes of this sword. Fortunately he hadn't forgotten the table leg. His men suddenly rolled to the left and cut off the table leg with a wave. Just hearing the sound of "crash", a large wooden table full of various things has fallen down. This table blocked the second sword for him. Wuji crouched in the dark and didn't even dare to take a breath. But with this person's high martial arts skills, he will soon be aware of where he is. When the third and fourth sword strikes, can he still dodge it? He really wasn't sure. With his bare hands, he couldn't resist this kind of cold sword energy and sharp and swift sword technique. This basement is likely to be his burial place. After going through so many hardships and setbacks, seeing that there is hope for things, if he really wants to die here, he doesn't even know who his opponent is! He will not die in peace. Now he can only wait, waiting for the opponent's third sword to stab, he is going to sacrifice one hand to grab this person's sword.He did not hesitate to sacrifice everything to fight this person.The life-and-death fight is already a matter of an instant, and the danger of this battle is definitely beyond the imagination of a third party. What was even more unexpected was that after waiting for a long time, the other party did not move at all. ——This person has clearly taken the lead, why didn't he take advantage of the momentum to pursue him? It was dark and dead silent. Wuji waited for a long time, his clothes were drenched in cold sweat, at this moment, he suddenly heard a person say: "I am here, I have wanted to see you for a long time." The voice came from above the basement, gentle and charming, as if full of care and tenderness. Who is here again, and who is it to see? Wuji still crouched in the corner without moving, but he could already recognize this man's voice. It was Juanjuan who came. Lei Zhentian's newlywed wife, Tang Juanjuan. Of course she came to see Lei Zhentian, she was afraid that Lei Zhentian would accidentally hurt her in the dark, so she first stated her purpose of coming.It's a pity that Lei Zhentian can't hear him forever. In the dark basement, suddenly there was a light. Juanjuan was holding a small lantern in her hand, and she was sitting in a big basket, slowly hanging down from above. There was obviously a reel shaft on the basket, and the wooden rolling basket hung down, and the light illuminated the basement, Juanjuan exclaimed in surprise. The basement was in a mess, and there was a person lying down under the table that Wuji overturned just now. The person is dead, the blood on the throat has coagulated, when Wuji came here, he was already dead. It was Lei Zhentian who died! Who killed him? Of course it was the one who had just thrown out the sword like the wind in the darkness. The sword marks on the table were still there, the cold sweat on Wuji's body was still wet, there was undoubtedly another person in the basement just now. But this person is now gone. He killed Lei Zhentian, why didn't he simply kill Wuji to silence him? He had already driven Wuji to death, why didn't he take advantage of the momentum to pursue him?Instead, quietly retreated? The light was shining on Lei Zhentian's face, and his face was still filled with surprise and fear before dying, as if he still didn't believe that this person would kill him until he died! Who is this person, why did you kill him, why didn't you kill Wuji? Juanjuan held the lamp in her hand, and she shone on Lei Zhentian's body, although she also looked very surprised, but there was joy in her surprise.She came here probably to kill him, but someone has already killed him. Wuji stood up slowly, and said lightly: "You seem to have come a step late." Juanjuan turned around in amazement, and when she saw Wuji, a spring-like smile appeared on her pale face. "It's you." She exhaled and patted her heart with a slender hand: "You really surprised me." Wuji said, "Did I really startle you?" Juanjuan rolled her eyes and said Yanran: "Actually, I should have thought it was yours." Wuji said, "Oh?" Juanjuan said: "I've seen it for a long time. Although you didn't agree to me at the time, you will definitely come and do this for me. For you, killing one more person is as easy as eating one more piece of tofu." .” She has determined that Lei Zhentian died at the hands of Wuji. Wuji didn't deny it, and couldn't justify it. Juanjuan sighed again, and said, "It looks like I'm a widow now." She looked at Wuji, winking like silk: "How are you going to comfort me, the poor little widow?" The night is quieter. Juanjuan fell asleep, fell asleep and woke up again. She moaned when she fell asleep and moaned when she woke up, a moan that would keep anyone from sleeping if they heard it. Of course Wuji couldn't sleep either. Because Wuji was sleeping next to her, not only could he hear her moans, but he could also feel her heartbeat. Her heart was beating so fast that it seemed as if it would stop at any moment.She is a very easy to please woman. Although she wanted more after she was satisfied, she could easily be satisfied again until she could only lie there moaning. Experienced men all know that it is this kind of woman who really makes men most tempted. Because when a man satisfies her, she also satisfies the man at the same time—not only satisfies the man's needs, but also satisfies the man's vanity and self-esteem! Now Juanjuan is awake. She panted and groaned softly, stroking Wuji's chest with a soft and boneless hand. Her moans were filled with happiness and joy. "I almost thought I was dead just now," she was biting him, "Why don't you just let me die under you?" Wuji didn't speak.He felt tired, too, the unavoidable tiredness that comes with great pleasure. But when he heard her voice, he immediately cheered up again. He is young and strong. He has not been in contact with a woman for a long time. ——She is also the core figure of the Tang family. After conquering her, no matter what you do, it will be much more convenient. ——Since she has spoken, he can't refuse, otherwise she will not only suspect, but also hold grudges. ——When a woman's desire is rejected, her heart must be full of resentment. ——A man like "Li Yutang" shouldn't reject a woman like Juanjuan. Wuji has many reasons to explain for himself, to make himself feel at ease. Too bad he wasn't a hypocrite. Since it has already been done, why bother to explain? Juanjuan asked softly again: "Are you regretting now?" "Regret?" Wuji smiled: "Why should I regret it? I never regret anything I do." "Then can I still come here tomorrow night?" Juanjuan's hand was teasing again. "Of course you can come." Wuji pushed her hand away: "But I won't be here tomorrow night." "why?" "Tomorrow morning, I will move out." "Where are you going?" "Move to Shangguanyan." Wuji said, "From tomorrow onwards, I will be the manager of Shangguanyan." Juanjuan smiled: "Do you think I dare not go there to find you? Do you think I'm afraid of Shangguan Ren?" She suddenly stood up and stared at Wuji: "Why did you go to him? Is it because he has A beautiful daughter?" Wuji neither admits nor denies. Juanjuan sneered, and said: "If you really want to hit his precious daughter, you will be miserable." Wuji said, "Oh?" Juanjuan said: "No one can touch that little girl." Wuji said, "Why?" Juanjuan said: "Because she has already been spotted by someone." Wuji asked, "Who is this person?" Juanjuan said: "He is someone who can't afford to offend anyone, not even me." Wuji deliberately asked: "Are you also afraid of him?" Juanjuan actually admitted: "Of course I'm afraid of him, I'm terribly afraid." Wuji couldn't help asking: "Why are you afraid of him?" Juanjuan said: "Because he is not only much more capable than me, but also ruthless and ruthless." She sighed: "Although I am his sister, if I offend him, he will still kill me." Wuji said: "You mean Tang Que?" Juanjuan was sneering again, and said, "What is Tang Que? Tang Que was also terribly frightened when he saw him." She added: "He has been the smartest, most beautiful, and most capable of our brothers and sisters since he was a child. He has whatever he wants. No one has ever dared to rob him. If he knows that you want to be an official daughter's idea, then you..." Wuji said, "What about me?" Juanjuan said: "You are going to die, no one can save you!" She leaned on Wuji's chest, and continued softly: "So I must protect you well, let you treat me wholeheartedly, let you I don’t have the strength to play other people’s ideas.” Now Wuji of course knows that she is talking about Tang Ao. Tang Ao's sword, Tang Ao's ruthlessness, are they really more terrifying than Tang Que? Sikong Xiaofeng's wit is deep and scheming, and he may be able to deal with Tang Que.But what about Tang Ao? In Dafengtang, who can deal with Tang Ao? Even if Shangguan Ren has been wiped out and Tang Ao is left behind, sooner or later he will always be a confidant of Dafengtang! Wuji's heart moved again. 不管他是不是能活着回去，都绝不让上官刃和唐傲两个人留下来。 就算他要被打下十八层地狱去，也要把这两个人一起带走。 娟娟忽然道：“你的手好冷！” Wuji said, "Oh?" 娟娟道：“你的手为什么忽然变得这么冷？” 无忌笑了笑，道：“因为我害怕。” 娟娟道：“怕什么？” 无忌道：“怕你刚才说的那个人。” 娟娟道：“他的确很快就要回来了，他回来的时候，说不定真的会去找你。” 无忌道：“可是我并没有想去打上官刃那位千金的主意。” 娟娟道：“他还是一样会去找你！” Wuji said, "Why?" 娟娟道：“因为你也是学剑的，而且大家好像都说你剑法很不错。” 无忌道：“所以他一定要击败我，让大家知道，他的剑法比我更高？” 娟娟道：“他一向是个宁死也不肯服输的人。” 无忌道：“他若不幸败在我剑下，难道真的会去死？” 娟娟道：“很可能。”她握住无忌冰冷的手：“但是你绝不会是他的对手，你只要一拔剑，就死定了，所以……” 无忌道：“所以怎么样？” 娟娟道：“他来找你的时候，你若肯服输，他也不会逼着你出手的！” 无忌道：“如果我碰巧也是个宁死都不肯服输的人呢？” 娟娟忽然跳起来，大声道：“那么你就去死吧。” 娟娟已走了很久，无忌还没有睡着，小宝的死、雷震天的死，都让他没法子睡得着。他们很可能是死在同一个人手里，这个人看来并不是唐家的子弟，所以行动才那么诡秘。这个人本来有机会可以杀了他的，但却放过了他，所以他几乎已经可以断定这个人对他并没有恶意。 前天晚上，替他引开了埋伏，很可能也是这个人。 这人究竟是谁？ 为什么要做这些事？ 无忌想得头都要裂开了，还是连一点头绪都想不出来。 他只有先假定这个人是他的朋友。 因为，这个人知道的秘密，实在太多了，如果不是他的朋友，那么就太可怕了。 四月二十五日，晴。 院子里百花盛开，阳光灿烂，无忌已经在阳光下站了很久。 这里是上官刃的后园，上官刃就站在他对面一棵银杏树下的阴影里，甚至可以把他脸上每一个毛孔都看得很清楚。 因为太阳正照在他脸上。 阳光刺眼，他几乎连上官刃的容貌五官都看不太清楚。 这种位置当然是上官刃特地安排的，无忌根本无法选择。 就算后园里只有他们两个人，在这种情况下，他也不能出手。 他根本看不清上官刃的动作，可是他的每一个动作都逃不过上官刃的眼。 他不能不佩服上官刃的谨慎和仔细。 上官刃终于开口。 他忽然道：“无论多巧妙的易容术，到了阳光下，都会露出破绽来。” Wuji said, "Oh?" 上官刃道：“人皮面具也一样，死人的皮，究竟跟活的人不同。” Wuji said, "Oh?" 上官刃道：“你脸上若有一张死人的皮，现在你也已是个死人。” 无忌忽然笑了。 上官刃道：“这并不好笑。” 无忌道：“可是我忽然想到一件好笑的事。” 上官刃道：“什么事？” 无忌道：“听说有很多人皮面具，是用死人屁股上的皮做成的，因为屁股上的皮最嫩。” 他还在笑：“难道你认为我会把别人的屁股戴在脸上？” 上官刃冷冷道：“你并不是一定不会这么做的，我看得出你这种人，到了必要时，什么事你都做得出。” 无忌道：“我真的是这种人？” 上官刃道：“就因为你是这种人，所以我才要你到这里来。” Wuji said, "Why?" 上官刃道：“因为这种人通常都很有用。” 无忌又笑了：“可惜这种人，通常都有个毛病。” 上官刃道：“什么毛病？” 无忌道：“这种人跟你一样，都不喜欢晒太阳。” 上官刃道：“一个时辰之前，太阳还没有晒到这里。” Wuji said: "I know." 上官刃道：“你本该早点来的。” 无忌道：“只可惜我一个时辰之前，还没有醒。” 上官刃道：“你通常都睡得很迟？” 无忌道：“有女人的时候，我就会睡得很迟。” 上官刃道：“昨天晚上，你有没有女人？” 无忌道：“只有一个。” 上官刃道：“你明知今天早上要来见我，为什么还要找女人？” 无忌道：“因为我高兴。” 上官刃不说话了。 无忌很希望能看看现在他脸上是什么表情，如果无忌真的看见了，一定会觉得很奇怪。 因为现在他脸上的表情，无论谁看见了都会觉得很奇怪。 幸好无忌看不见，别人也没有看见。 过了很久，上官刃才冷冷的说道：“这里是唐家堡。” Wuji said: "I know." 上官刃道：“在这里找女人，并不容易。” Wuji said: "I know." 上官刃道：“你怎么找到的？” 无忌道：“我也一样找不到，幸好我有法子能让女人找到我。” 上官刃道：“是那个女人来找你？” 无忌道：“嗯。” 上官刃道：“她为什么要找上你？” 无忌道：“因为她高兴。” 上官刃又不说话了。 这次他脸上的表情，一定比刚才更精彩，只可惜无忌还是看不见。这次不等他开口，无忌已经抢着道：“我希望你能明白一点。” 上官刃道：“你说。” 无忌道：“你既然看得出我是个什么事都能做得出的人，就应该知道，我不但贪财，而且好色，有时候甚至会喝得烂醉如泥。” 上官刃道：“说下去。” 无忌道：“只不过这些都是我的私事，我做事一向公私分明。” 上官刃道：“很好。” 无忌道：“你要我留下，就不能过问我的私事，否则你现在最好要我走。” 上官刃又盯着他看了很久，一双锐眼在阳光下看来就像是兀鹰。 一种专吃死人尸体的鹰。 在这一瞬间，无忌几乎认为上官刃已经准备对他出手。 但是上官刃只简单的说出了四个字，就忽然闪没在树下的阴影中。 他说：“你留下来。” 三明两暗五开间的一栋屋子，坐落在一个很阴冷的院子里。 院子里种着几十盆海棠，几棵梧桐。 这就是上官刃为无忌安排的住处，是一个叫“老孔”的人带他来的。 老孔并不姓孔。 老孔也姓唐，据说还是唐缺和唐傲的堂叔，只不过除了他自己之外，谁也没有把他们这种亲戚关系看得太认真。 老孔有一张红通通的脸，脸上长着红通通的酒糟鼻子。 无忌问他：“你明明姓唐，别人为什么不叫你老唐？” 老孔的回答很有理：“这里人人都姓唐，如果叫'老唐'，应答的人也不知道有多少。” 无忌又问道：“别人为什么叫你'老孔'？” 老孔的回答更妙：“孔的意思，就是一个洞，我这人就是一个洞，随便什么样的酒，都可以从这个洞里倒下去。” 老孔的职务很多，不但是无忌的跟班，而且还是无忌的厨子。 无忌的一日三餐，每餐六菜一汤，都是老孔做出来的。 他做菜的手艺实在不能算太高明，炒出来的牛肉简直像牛皮。 每天每顿饭他都要炒一碟这样的牛皮，无忌已经连续吃了七八顿。 除了吃饭外，无忌惟一工作就是记账，把十来本又厚又重的账簿，一张张、一条条、一样样，登记到另外的账簿上。 这就是上官刃交给他的工作，这种工作简直比老孔炒的牛肉还乏味。 无忌实在很想一把揪住上官刃的衣襟，问个清楚。“你特地把我请来，就是为了要我来做这种鸟事的？” 只可惜这两天他连上官刃的影子都没有看见。 这栋宅院不但外表上看来大得多，也比无忌想像中大得多。 无忌可以活动的范围却很小。 不管他出门之后往哪个方向走，走不出一百步，就会忽然出现一个人，很客气的告诉他：“这条路不能向前走了。” “前面是禁区，闲人止步。” 这地方的禁区真多，上官刃的书房、大小姐住的院子，甚至连仓库都是禁区。 每一个禁区的附近，都至少有七八个人看守。 要打倒这些人并不难，可是无忌绝不会这么样做的。 "A small leak will sink a great ship." 这句话以前对无忌来说，只不过是句陈旧的老调而已。 可是现在无忌却已经深切的体会到其中的含意，上官刃这么样对他，很可能也是种考验。 所以他只有忍耐。 所以他只有每天呆在他的房里，吃牛皮、记账簿、看院子里的海棠和梧桐。 他已经呆了三天。 唐缺居然也没有露面。 无忌发觉自己居然好像有点想念这个人了。陪他一起吃饭，至少总比吃牛皮好些。 那条热闹的街道，那些生意兴隆的店铺，也比这里有趣得多。 无忌实在很想到外面去逛逛，但是老孔却阻止了他：“你不能出去。” “为什么？”无忌有点生气：“我又不是囚犯，这里又不是监狱。” “可是你最好还是不要出去。”老孔显得忠心耿耿的样子，解释着道：“大老爷特地把你请来，绝不会为了要你做这些事，他一定是想先试试你。” 这一点无忌也已想到。 老孔道：“所以他随时都可能交下别的事让你做，你若不在，岂不是错过了机会？” 无忌同意。 机会是绝不能错过的，无论什么样的机会，都不能错过。 现在他已到达成功的边缘，随时都可能会有刺杀上官刃的机会出现。 所以他只有每天呆在他的房里，吃牛皮、记账簿、看窗外的海棠和梧桐。 他几乎已经快闷出病来了。 老孔的日子却过得很愉快。 他用一顿饭的工夫，就可以把三顿饭都做好，因为每顿饭的菜都是一样的。 吃早饭的时候，他就开始喝一点酒，吃午饭的时候，他喝得多一点。 睡过一个午觉之后，酒意已醒，他当然要重头开始喝。 吃过晚饭，他就带着六分酒意走了，回来的时候通常已是深夜，通常都已喝得烂醉如泥。 第四天晚上，他正准备出去的时候，无忌忍不住问他：“你要到哪里去？” “只不过出去随便走走。” “每天晚上你好像都有地方可以去，”无忌在叹气：“可是我好像什么地方都去不得。” “因为你跟我们不同。” "what is the difference?" “你是大老爷特地请来的，又是大倌的朋友，是个上等人。” 上等人就该去上等地方，只可惜这里的上等地方都是禁区。 老孔眯着眼笑道：“我们就不同了，我们有很多地方可以去，因为我们是下等人，那些地方是只有下等人才能去的。” Wuji said, "Why?" 老孔道：“因为，那本来就是下等地方。” 无忌问道：“你们通常都在那里干什么？” 老孔道：“在下等地方，做的当然都是些下等事。” 无忌道：“下等事是些什么事？” 老孔笑道：“其实也没有什么，只不过喝喝酒，赌赌钱，吃吃小姑娘的豆腐而已。” 无忌笑了：“这些事上等人也一样做的。” 老孔道：“同样的一件事，如果是上等人在上等地方做出来的，就是上等事，如果是下等人在下等地方做出来的，就变成了下等事了，上等人就会皱起眉头，说这些事下流。” 他说的不但有理，而且还有点哲学味道。 无忌道：“那里都有些什么人？” 老孔道：“当然都是些下等人，左右不外是些家丁警卫、厨子丫头而已。” 无忌的眼睛亮了。 如果能跟这些人混熟，他的行动就一定会方便得多。 他忽然站起来，拍了拍老孔的肩，道：“我们走吧。” 老孔道：“你要到哪里去？” 无忌道：“你到哪里去，我就到哪里去。” 老孔道：“你是个上等人，怎么能去那些下等地方？” 无忌道：“就算我白天是个上等人，到了晚上，就变成了下等人了。” 他微笑又道：“我知道有很多上等人都是这样子的。” 老孔也笑了。 他不能不承认无忌说的有理。 “但是有一点我要事先声明。” "you say." “到了那里，你就也是个下等人了，喝酒、赌钱、打架，都没关系，有机会的时候，你甚至可以趁机摸摸鱼。” “摸鱼？”无忌不懂。 “那里有很多长得还不错的小丫头。”老孔又眯起眼：“她们也喝酒、也赌钱，只要喝酒，就会喝醉，只要赌钱，就会输光。” 无忌已经明白他的意思：“只要她们一喝醉、一输光，就是我们摸鱼的时候到了。” 老孔笑道：“原来你也是行家。” 无忌也笑道：“有关这方面的事，上等人绝对比下等人更内行。” 老孔道：“只有一个人的鱼你千万不能摸，你连碰都不能去碰她。” Wuji said, "Why?" 老孔道：“因为这个人我们谁都惹不起。” 无忌道：“这个人是谁？” 老孔道：“她叫双喜。” 无忌道：“双喜？” 老孔道：“她就是我们大老爷的大小姐的大丫头。” 他叹了口气，苦笑道：“惹了她，就等于惹了大小姐，谁惹了我们那位大小姐，就等于自己把自己的脑袋塞到一个特大号的马蜂窝里去。” 有关这位大小姐的事，无忌已经不是第一次听见了，现在他虽然还没有见到她的人，却已领教到她的大小姐威风。 其实无忌并不是没有见过她，只不过那已是十多年以前的事了。 那时她还是个很瘦弱、很听话的小女孩，总是梳着两条小辫子，一看见陌生人就脸红。 现在她已变成个什么样的人了？What does it look like?别人为什么如此怕她？ 无忌忽然很想看看这位人见人怕的大小姐，究竟有多么威风、多么可怕。 他先看到了双喜。 这位大丫头的威风，已经让人受不了。 屋子里乌烟瘴气，味道嗅起来就像是个打翻了的垃圾桶。 可是屋子里的人却好像完全没有感觉到。 一间本来只能容得下十来个人的屋子，现在却挤进了好几十个人，有老有少，有男有女，有的打扮得花枝招展，有的精赤着脊梁，有的臭烘烘，有的香喷喷，可是每个人脸上的表情都一样。 每个人都瞪大了眼睛，看着双喜，等着双喜把手里的骰子掷出来。 双喜的手又白，又软，又小，就像一朵小小的小白花。 她的人也一样白白的，小小的，俏俏的，甜甜的，脸上还有两个好深好深的酒窝。 她的小手里抓着三颗骰子，领子上的钮扣解开了两颗，一只脚跷在板凳上，一双大眼睛滴溜溜直转。 这一把下注的人可真不少，下得最多、押得最重的，是个大麻子。 无忌见过这个人，这人是上官刃书房附近的警卫，曾经把无忌挡回去两次。 平常他说话的时候，总是带着种皮笑肉不笑的样子，可是现在他却连假笑都笑不出了，一张大圆脸上，每粒麻子都在冒汗。 这一注他押了十三两银子，这已经是他的全部财产。 忽然间，一声轻叱，“叮”的一响，三颗骰子落在碗里。 “四五六！”双喜跳了起来大喝一声：“统杀！”现在她的样子看起来已经不像一朵小白花，现在她看起来简直就像一
