Chapter 21 The nineteenth chapter Xiaoxiang

Xiao Xiang is about sixteen or seventeen years old. Wearing a big braid is always shiny, and people are also shiny. She is not beautiful, but she is by no means ugly. Her name is Xiaoxiang, because she is always fragrant. Although her figure is petite, she looks like a full-fledged woman, but in fact she is not a mature woman. But she is indeed a very cute girl. It is not easy to give her a comment, because her personality and appearance give people a very contradictory feeling. She is the kind of woman that men like when they see it. But it's just a girl who likes to hold her hand, even hold her in her arms, and kiss her face, but doesn't want to sleep with her.

Ding Peng is very close to Xiaoxiang. When Qingqing is not around, Xiaoxiang will often accompany him to chat, play chess, recite poems, and pair sentences. Ding Peng also took her hand, hugged her and sat on his lap, and even smelled the fragrance from her neck. But Ding Peng didn't sleep with her. She is a very ideal and very sensible companion to relieve boredom and relax, but she still can't stimulate a man's lust. Maybe it was because of her scent. This is a very special fragrance, which is innate and cannot be emitted by any kind of flower or spice. This fragrance makes people feel the same holy.

Ding Peng is not a teacher of Taoism, nor does he regard sexual desire between men and women as a sin, on the contrary, he still considers it sacred. Therefore, when he was deliberately deceived by Qin Keqing, he would feel very angry, very sad, and very discouraged, because he is a person whose passion and desire, spirit and flesh are consistent. So when his love was reborn with Qingqing, he would be so faithful. Xie Xiaoyu tempted him like that, but he was indifferent. Therefore, even if he was affected by the enchanting spring wine in Baihua Niang, he could still resolutely get rid of the temptation of Xie Xiaoyu's body.

Therefore, he would rather spend money to buy a woman to get rid of the obsession in him, and also use this method to inform Qingqing how much he needs a woman. When he was with Xiaoyun, he had no shame, because it was arranged by Qingqing for him. So when Xiaoxiang climbed onto his bed to put on his trousers, he was surprised and said quickly: "Xiaoxiang, my poison has been completely cured." Xiaoxiang's face turned red, she pushed him and said, "Who told you this, I just want to put on your pants for you and tell you to go out." "What are you going out for?"

"You don't even look at the sky. It's already noon the next day. Those women who have received your generous gifts are coming to thank you. You can't go out like this, can you?" "Pay them the gold and tell them to walk, so why bother?" "My lord, you can't do this. They are human beings, and they have human dignity. You can't treat them like this, especially for a few people who refuse the gold from your lord." Ding Peng felt strange: "They don't want gold, don't they think it's too little?" Xiaoxiang smiled and said: "It's not less, ten taels of gold for one night, they are grateful to the young master for calling them here, and don't ask them for anything, and let them have a good meal and play all night, just like They are like friends, so they are very touched. How can they ask for money from friends?"

Ding Peng said: "These women are quite backbone." Xiao Xiang smiled and said: "Some people also say that it is their honor that Mr. Ding, who is famous all over the world, invites them to drink with them. It is very likely that their social status will increase in the future, so naturally they cannot ask for Mr. Ding's gold." Ding Peng said: "Although this statement is more realistic, it is cuter than the previous one. At least they are telling the truth." Xiao Xiang said: "Don't tell me you think the former one is not a word of conscience?"

Ding Peng said: "Bitches are ruthless, I don't believe they will have affection." Xiao Xiang said: "Young master's views on women are too extreme." Ding Peng said: "Never, I am absolutely respectful to respectable women, but I am absolutely respectful to humble women." Xiao Xiang laughed and said, "How do you know that they are heartless? How do you know that their gratitude is not sincere?" Ding Peng smiled and said: "This is easy to prove, how many people are still outside?" Xiao Xiang said: "About a dozen or so, they insisted on seeing the young master to say goodbye before going back."

Ding Peng smiled and said, "It looks like I have to go and meet them." Xiao Xiang said: "Yes, no matter if it's true or false, the young master has to deal with it." Ding Peng put on his clothes, tidied his hair, and went outside. Sure enough, the remnants of the seats were not collected, and there were a dozen fans, including last night's Hong Hong and Xian Xian, who were still waiting. Ding Peng smiled and said: "I've neglected everyone." After paying her respects in a soft voice, Hong Hong said, "Where did Mr. Ding come from? We are indescribably grateful for such hospitality."

Ding Peng smiled and said: "Everyone is welcome too. I was supposed to have a happy night with everyone here, but Zhuo Jing is here. I only talk to Zhuo Jing. I am too rude to everyone. I hope you have a good time." Xianxian said: "Young master, if you say that, we dare not be even more. Although we often serve wine and banquets, we just stand by and wait. Even if the guests ask us to sit down, for the sake of status, we just pick up the chopsticks at most. Come to think of it, unlike yesterday, you can really eat and drink as much as you want." Hong Hong said: "So we feel that we can no longer accept the reward from the young master, please take it back."

Ding Peng said: "Then how can it be possible? I'm extremely sorry for wasting everyone's precious time. Moreover, if you don't want any more money, I would be too ashamed of my friends." Xianxian said: "The young master treats us as friends, we are flattered, how can we accept the young master's reward?" Ding Peng smiled and said: "Friends have the obligation to share pain, should you also share a little pain for me?" Xianxian said: "Young master is joking, how can we be qualified to share worries for Ding young master?" But Hong Hong said: "That's not necessarily true. Young Master must know what we can do. As long as Young Master wants us to do it, just give us an order, and we will be smashed to pieces."

Ding Peng laughed loudly and said, "Good! Good! Enough friendship, do you know what my biggest pain is?" Xianxian said: "This...we don't know." Ding Peng said: "My biggest pain is that I have too much gold and I don't know how to spend it. If you are my friends, you should help me spend some. Therefore, if you refuse any more, you are not enough friends." All the girls were stunned, and no one expected that Ding Peng would say such a thing. Ding Peng said: "Besides, you stayed until now, which shows that you have a deeper friendship than others, so you have to double the burden. My pain is, Xiao Xiang, all the girls seal ten taels of gold and send them to their boudoirs." The girls were shocked at first, and then all of them were overjoyed. They came over to express their gratitude, and Hong Hong said: "If we had known that Mr. Ding was in such pain, we would have burdened him a little more." Ding Peng said with a smile: "I am a very emotional person. I am ashamed to ask you to double the burden, so I never dare to increase your burden." Hong Hong smiled and said, "I was just joking. There is no such pain in the world, and there is no such way to share it, so thank you, Young Master." Ding Peng said: "However, Hong Hong, I hope to hear a sincere word. Do you really want my gold?" Hong Hong paused before saying: "Fake, although there were fifty girls who came yesterday, most of them were cameos, and we are the only ones who are really on duty." Ding Peng snorted and said, "So what?" Hong Hong said: "We always have to show that we are better than them. If we only get ten taels of gold, although it is a big sum, it doesn't show that our background is special. No matter what, we should always be better than them." They will have more face." "So, you came with this wrist that wants to advance first?" Hong Hong said: "Young master has such a big hand, I don't think he will care about a few taels of gold." Ding Peng said: "Gao Ming, Gao Ming, if I was a stubborn person and took your words as the truth, wouldn't you suffer a great loss?" Hong Hong smiled and said: "We hope so, if Mr. Ding treats us as friends, we will gain even more." "Oh? It's time to ask for advice." Hong Hong said: "First, we can say frankly that Ding Daxia, the most famous son in the world, is our friend. After this, we will definitely have more customers visiting us, and we can even raise our value a few times." times, there will be a lot of people in the market, this is the harvest of a long stream of water." "Admiration, admiration, is there any other gain?" Hong Hong said: "Yes, the second is on Mr. Ding. Since you regard us as friends, we have an urgent need to ask you. Even if it is five times ten times, I think you will not be stingy." Ding Peng said: "I really don't know. It's too easy for me to help my friends as long as I use money. .” Hong Hong smiled and said: "But the young master is not easy. He only spent ten taels of gold and sent us away. Fortunately, we have gained something. Thank you, young master, and I will not say those polite words about seeing you next time." Now, I know something like this will never happen again." They went away happily. Ding Peng sighed, then asked Xiao Xiang with a smile, "Do you still think they are affectionate and righteous?" Xiaoxiang remained silent for a long time, then smiled and said, "A bitch is a bitch." Ding Peng laughed and said, "It's not surprising that you said this, and that you had a wrong view of them before. You believed what they said, because you are not a bitch. It's good for a bitch to be ruthless, but bitches are also human, yes People are not ruthless." Xiao Xiang couldn't help but said: "Master, you are the one who said the bitch is ruthless, and you are the one who said the bitch is sympathetic, which confuses me." Ding Peng laughed and said: "Bitches are not ruthless, how can ruthless nights and nights turn all living beings upside down, they are too sentimental." "So what about passion?" "When the love becomes strong, the love turns thin, and the passion becomes more ruthless." "So they don't have any real feelings?" "No, although they are affectionate and fickle, it's not that they don't have true feelings. It's that they listen too much to men's flattering words, and deal with them too much with false feelings. They hide their true feelings deep in their hearts, and it's not easy to show them." "However, once they fall in love with someone, they will stick to life and death, regardless of any sacrifices. Therefore, there are many touching stories that happened in brothels." Xiao Xiang smiled and said: "Young Master seems to know prostitutes very well." Ding Peng laughed and said, "It's not very deep, but I know that in yesterday's situation, it's impossible to get their true love. Ten taels of gold can't buy a bitch's true love, that's all." "At least the young master has been in contact with them often." Ding Peng shook his head: "You may not believe it, yesterday was the first time I summoned prostitutes to drink, and I have never been in a brothel in my life, so I spent a lot of money in the inn and asked others to call prostitutes for me. Come on, if I bump into it by myself, I will probably be unreasonable and cause a lot of jokes, and outside the inn, there are still many people waiting to see my jokes." Xiao Xiang smiled and said, "My lord, there is no one outside the inn." Ding Peng was surprised and said: "There is no one else, and the group of annoying bugs who followed are gone?" "Yes, when Miss and Xiaoyun came in, the servant girl was waiting outside. In the middle of the night, they all left, until there was no one left." Ding Peng looked very surprised. He didn't like people following him, and he even hated their shadows following behind him. But suddenly he heard that those people had disappeared, and he felt uneasy. Sudden events are always surprising. What you don't know is always unsettling. Where did people go? "Where did the man go?" Ding Peng had asked Agu, but that was tantamount to asking in vain, because even if Agu knew, he would not be able to answer. He can't speak. The mute also has ways to express meaning, but Agu just shook his head, which means he really doesn't know. "Where did the man go?" Ding Peng asked Xiaoxiang in the car, Xiaoxiang shook her head and said: "I don't know, I just saw them leaving in a hurry, like something important happened, but I want to guard the inn, Unable to follow up to find out." Ding Peng shook his head and said, "That's not what I asked. I have already asked this question once, and you have already answered it. If you ask it again, there will be no new answer." Xiao Xiang was startled and said, "Who is the young master asking?" Ding Peng said: "I'm asking about Qingqing and Xiaoyun." Xiao Xiang said: "They left." Ding Peng said: "I also know they are gone, what I want to ask is where did they go? What did they do?" Xiao Xiang said: "My servant doesn't know either. When it was almost dawn, the lady called the maid in and told the maid to stay and wait on the young master. She took Xiaoyun and left." "Neither where nor why?" Xiao Xiang said: "No, the servant girl shouldn't and can't ask." Ding Peng said: "I am her husband, she should at least tell me." Xiao Xiang smiled and said, "My lord, Miss has deep affection for you, she will never do anything to harm you, let alone do anything to be sorry for you." Ding Peng said: "I believe this, but a wife should stay by her husband's side." Xiao Xiang smiled and said: "Miss is different, she is not a human, she is a fox." "What about the fox?" "The life of a fox does not belong to this world. The world of a fox's life is in the deep mountains and marshes, in the deserted suburbs and ancient temples, where there are few people." "How did she come to the downtown area last night?" "Occasionally, it's okay to stay in the world, but after a long time, it will destroy the Dao Foundation." "But she left you to serve me." Xiao Xiang blushed a bit and said: "The servant girl is not a fox, but a mediocre person in the world of mortals, so it's okay." Ding Peng laughed and said, "No wonder I couldn't get my tail behind you in the morning." Xiaoxiang's face became even redder, and she whispered: "Young Master, have you touched the tail on Miss and Xiaoyun's body?" Ding Peng blinked and said, "I haven't noticed this either." Xiaoxiang smiled and said: "If a fox shows its tail, it is not qualified to hang around in the world, so it cannot be a fox." Ding Peng laughed again and said, "In other words, it's hard for me to tell whether you are a human or a fox." Xiaoxiang is not a fox, because she has no intention of being a fox. A fox can't bear to be lonely, but Xiaoxiang can be content with being lonely. Fox is changeable and supernatural, but Xiaoxiang is very ordinary. She knows a little martial arts, but not magic. A fox needs a companion, whether it is a sky fox, a spirit fox, or a wild fox, foxes of these three realms all need companions. Tianhu seeks a fairy companion to join in the cultivation together. Linghu seeks a lover to live together. Wild foxes have no choice, and they will not refuse anyone, because what they are looking for is a wicked partner who can be used as a source of income and love, and who can enjoy lust. But Xiaoxiang is nothing, she is just a maid, and she has fulfilled her duties as a maid, serving Ding Peng's daily life, eating and drinking, washing and bathing, and doing all trivial things, except not going to bed with him. Xiaoxiang is very fragrant, her skin is very fair, and she is a very cute girl, but she doesn't like being loved like a woman. Ding Peng can hold her shoulders and sit in the car, enjoying the scenery outside the window and smelling the intoxicating fragrance of her body. You can also hold her hand, pinch her pink cheeks, and say a few witty words to make her blush like a camellia. This girl is as soft as a kitten and as pure as a baby. People like to touch her, but they can't bear to take her further. Ding Peng didn't know if she would be rejected when she went further to ask her, because as long as they were close to each other, she would shrink back and always seemed a little wary. However, Ding Peng never made this request, nor did he make any hints, because he is not a person who emphasizes lust. His own view of love is somewhat dreamy and tends to be spiritual. Because the woman he came into contact with for the first time was the carnal type, which broke his heart, so he despises those women who give themselves to men easily. 他虽然不是圣人，但他的爱情却是神圣的，所以谢小玉向他施展媚力，却挨了他一顿狠揍。 Being with a girl like Xiaoxiang is the life he admires the most.They have no purpose, no rush, horses and chariots, slowly and enjoyly visiting every place of interest. Ding Peng is very smart, but he hasn't read too many books. When he was young, he fantasized about becoming a leader in martial arts, and spent most of his time practicing swords. If he hadn't met Liu Ruosong, he might have become a A well-known young swordsman, but he will not become Ding Peng today. Therefore, his itinerary was the return journey, he thought of going back to the Wansong Villa he got from Liu Ruosong, and the Yuanyue Villa he built opposite to fight against Liu Ruosong. It wasn't his hometown, but it was his home, not to mention his wife Qingqing was waiting there. Although Qingqing didn't tell him where he went, she would definitely return to their home. Their car was almost approaching. Agu was driving the car in front, and Xiaoxiang sat beside him, exuding her intoxicating fragrance. The only difference is that behind the car there are no longer those good people from the rivers and lakes following. And what made Ding Peng feel strange was the silence they felt during their journey these past few days. In the busy city, it is naturally impossible to avoid other people, but those people seem to avoid him on purpose. He went to the inn, and the people in the inn received him tremblingly, and when he left the inn the next day, he found that they were the only ones staying in the huge inn, and the rest moved out quietly. When he entered a restaurant, the noisy restaurant would become quiet, and when he left, he found that they were the only guests at this table. On the street, no one dared to look at him. On the main road, his car can drive straight without fear of bumping into people, because there is no one. It was as if he had the plague on him. Ding Peng was very strange, so he had to ask Xiaoxiang, but Xiaoxiang smiled and said: "Young master is the most famous person in the world, so they naturally dare not come here to offend." "Is this the case for everyone in the highest position?" "Probably so. Xie Xiaofeng also had this kind of situation. That's why he abandoned his sword and the title of Third Young Master for a while, and hid himself as a groom in a small inn." "But Xie Xiaofeng won't be like me?" "Yes, the young master is luckier than him, and he is also more powerful than him. His divine sword is invincible, but he still has many enemies and many people who are not convinced. He has no friends if he wants to compare swords with him or kill him. There are many enemies, so he doesn't have such free time, he has to deal with those successive assassinations and attacks." "I also made a lot of enemies." Xiao Xiang smiled and said: "But the son's magic knife is even better than the Xie family's divine sword back then. Even your enemies dare not come to you for revenge." Ding Peng shook his head and said, "I always feel it's not that simple." Xiao Xiang said: "That means there is some big conspiracy going on, and they are going to deal with the young master. This is the calm before the big storm." Ding Peng smiled and said: "It's not too bad, I hope they come soon, so that people won't be bored like this." But Xiaoxiang said worriedly: "But the young master doesn't even know who the enemy is. The enemy hidden in the dark is the most terrifying." She suddenly stopped talking, because she saw Ding Peng's brows wrinkled, and she covered her nose with her hands. People cover their noses only when they smell a bad smell. Xiaoxiang was born with a strange fragrance, so the stench naturally didn't come from her body. The stench came from the woods beside the road. Ding Peng ordered Agu to stop the car, went to the woods to have a look, and finally found the source of the stench—the corpse. The stench of dead bodies is the most unpleasant stench in the world. Stink is a bad smell, but not all unpleasant. The smellier the stinky tofu, the more exciting it is. Some people like to open their feet, pinch a little mixture of foot sweat, dirt and foot skin, and put it in front of their noses to smell it. It is said that it is a kind of enjoyment. Some people like to eat rotten eggs, stinky fish, and stinky pickles. Even when someone is farting, they will grab a handful and put it in front of their nose to smell it, and they will appear contented. Dogs like to eat shit. Most of the people in this world are stink chasers, and it is no longer surprising that they are not surprised. But no one likes the smell of putrid corpses. It was a disgusting, disgusting smell, ugly and full of meaning of death. Only two animals are not afraid of this smell. One is flies and the other is maggots. It is said that there is a kind of vulture in the desert that eats carrion. They are not afraid of carrion, and they like it very much. They can smell it from a long distance and come here. But here is Jiangnan, and there are no corpse hawks. But there were swarms of red flies and wriggling maggots. Ding Peng walked into the forest, and with a buzzing sound, a large cloud of flies was blown up, and then slowly stopped. Stopped on the rotting corpses all over the place. There were more than a dozen corpses in this pile, and the dead time would not be too long, because the stench only came out from their mouths and noses, and although the internal organs had begun to rot inside, they hadn't rotted out yet. But maggots decompose quickly, and have already crawled in and out of the ear holes and nostrils of the dead. Judging from the clothes, these are all Jianghu people, and they still have weapons next to their bodies, but the swords are not out of their sheaths, or are only half drawn. Ding Peng barely covered his nose, inspected one of them, turned it over and over again, and after looking at it for a while, he found that the body was complete without any scars.The cause of death was a blow to the throat, a fatal blow that left only a bruise but had shattered their throats. This was the case for more than a dozen corpses in a row, and Xiaoxiang couldn't help but let out an exclamation. Ding Peng turned around and asked, "What's your name?" Xiao Xiang said: "These...these dead people..." Xiao Xiang paused for a moment before nodding and said: "They are all people who followed the son's car a few days ago." Ding Peng said: "It's strange, it's just a group of second- and third-rate Jianghu people, and they won't make any serious enemies. Who will kill them?" He checked the corpse again and said: "This person died of being cut in the throat with a palm blade. The person who shot it was extremely skilled in martial arts." Agu stepped forward, wiped the throats of several people, then stretched out his palms, and showed them to Ding Peng. His palm was also black, so he could see it clearly, and there were some silver debris on it. Xiaoxiang couldn't help being surprised and said: "Silver Dragon Hand!" Ding Peng asked lightly: "Silver Dragon Hand is a kind of martial art, and it is also a person. This person's arms are made of silver, and he can cut with swords continuously. When he kills people, he always cuts people's throats with his palms. break and die." Ding Peng said: "Could it be that this person has already cultivated the indestructible body of a diamond?" Xiao Xiang timidly said: "The maid is not very clear, it seems that he is wearing a pair of silver gloves on his hands, a silver dragon scale armor on his body, a silver mask on his face, and a silver helmet on his head..." Ding Peng laughed and said, "Didn't that make you a banker?" Xiao Xiang said: "My lord, I'm not joking, this servant really exists. He is one of the four elders of the Demon Sect." "The four elders of the Demon Cult?" Xiao Xiang nodded and said, "Yes, the Demon Cult has four elders, namely the Golden Lion, Silver Dragon, Bronze Camel, and Tie Yan." Ding Peng said: "Is Elder Tie Yan the couple whose arms were cut off by me?" Xiaoxiang said: "Yes, the couple are collectively called Tieyan Shuangfei, but only the husband is the elder, but they are always inseparable as husband and wife, and they are together at any time, so there is the name Tieyan Shuangfei." Ding Peng said: "So Yinlong came to seek revenge on me on behalf of Tieyan, so he should come to me. How could he find these people?" Xiaoxiang hesitated to speak, Ding Peng felt impatient and said: "Xiaoxiang, if you have something to say, just say it without hesitation." Xiao Xiang said: "I don't know about this servant girl, but I heard rumors from outside that the four elders in the Devil's Cult, gold, silver and iron, all betrayed the Devil's Cult." "Oh? Three of the four elders of one sect betrayed the sect. No wonder they are about to perish." Xiao Xiang said: "In the past, the Demon Sect dominated the martial arts, making all the sects unable to lift their heads. The heads of the five sects tried their best. Finally, they bought all three elders and even invited the Excalibur With the help of the Third Young Master Xie from the villa, he led the crowd to directly attack the main altar of the Demon Cult, and together they forced the leader of the Demon Cult to the cliff, fell into the valley and died, and the power of the Demon Cult was disintegrated." "Elder Tie Yan has a gold medal for avoiding death, which was given to them at that time?" Xiao Xiang said: "Probably, because the Four Great Elders killed too many martial arts people when they were in the Demon Cult. In order to prevent people from taking revenge on them in the future, the Five Great Sects gave them a gold medal for avoiding death." Ding Peng said: "Since the power of the Devil's Cult is so strong, and the status of the Four Great Elders is so important, why did they betray the Devil's Cult?" Xiao Xiang said: "This maid doesn't know." "There are always some legends, right?" "These things are very secret. Apart from the heads of the five major sects, few people know about them, because the Devil's Cult is a secret sect. Although it is powerful, it rarely conducts public activities. I didn’t know there was such a sect, so there weren’t many rumors.” "And how do you know?" Xiaoxiang was stunned for a moment before saying: "Because I follow Miss, all I come into contact with are foxes, foxes have great powers and know everything, and my servant likes to hear about things in the Jianghu, bit by bit, when they accumulate, I can learn everything." Know something." "Oh, does Qingqing know?" "Miss knows even less than maidservants. She cultivates the Heavenly Fox Way and doesn't care about worldly affairs at all." "Anyone know better?" Xiao Xiang smiled and said: "I'm afraid not. Maid is the one who knows the most about martial arts affairs, because she has always paid attention to these things. The young lady wants the maid to follow the young master, that is because the young master is very ignorant of those in the Jianghu. Knowing too little about the matter, I need the servant girl to provide it to the young master for reference at any time." "You don't know about it at the moment." "Didn't the servant already know that the perpetrator is Elder Yinlong?" "But you don't know anything about Elder Yinlong. For example, why he betrayed the Demon Sect and why he killed these people, you can't even give me an answer." Xiao Xiang said: "Tomorrow, the servant girl will find out and report back to the young master, okay?" "You will know tomorrow? Who are you going to ask?" Xiao Xiang said: "The servant girl can call the fox to ask the fox to find out." "You also know the art of summoning a fox?" "Yes, the old master is the emperor of the foxes. All the foxes in the world are under the jurisdiction of the old master. Naturally, the maid knows how to summon foxes."
