Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Ye Kai Has a Sister

A golden bottle, a huge toast, and the wine is emerald green. The wine is on the table, and the dishes are even more expensive. The first one to move the chopsticks was Murong Mingzhu, but the first one to drink was not Le Leshan, but Gongsun Duan. As soon as the wine was on the table, Gongsun Duan drank eleven or two cups vigorously. He had nowhere to vent his anger just now, so he had to find wine to vent his anger. One drink at a time, the more he drank, the more ugly his face became. Seeing how he is now, it is best not to let anyone Mess with him, otherwise it will be like exploding a powder magazine.

Fu Hongxue didn't take a sip of wine, didn't move his chopsticks, he still held the knife tightly in his left hand, and stared at Ma Kongqun coldly with eyes like a deep pool in a distant mountain. Ye Kai's mouth and hands never stopped, he ate and drank a mouthful of vegetables and a glass of wine, enjoying himself.Even his eyes were full of joy, as if he was attending a wedding banquet for a close relative or friend. He watched while eating and drinking, his eyes moved from Lele Mountain to Huamantian, and then to Murong Mingzhu, observing one by one, and finally stayed on Ma Kongqun's face.

I don't know if it was intentional?Or unintentional?At this time, Ma Kongqun's eyes were also looking at Ye Kai, and the two eyes suddenly met, just like meteors colliding, and sparks seemed to burst out in the eyes of both of them. Ma Kongqun suddenly smiled, his smile, Ye Kai felt as if he was forced to smile, but also as if he had a thousand words to say. But Ma Kongqun only smiled, and immediately looked away with an excuse to drink, as if he was afraid that Ye Kai would find out some secrets. What is he afraid of? Ye Kai found it interesting. Logically speaking, it was Ye Kai who was afraid. Seeing a group of people who should have been dead for ten years, but still eating, drinking, and jumping around alive and well, even if they weren't frightened to death, they would be fine.

But the person who is afraid now is actually Ma Kongqun, Ye Kai of course finds this kind of thing very interesting. Ten years ago, on the same night, at the same place, the same people got together, Ma Kongqun wanted to find out Bai Baiyu's son. What about tonight? The incident is repeating itself, is it also to find Bai Baiyu's son? If things were really as they were ten years ago, then Murong Mingzhu would sing the song "...the blade is broken, the heart is broken...". But looking at Murong Mingzhu's appearance now, there is no sign of singing at all. Things are going to repeat themselves, why is the plot not exactly the same?

Ye Kai turned his eyes to Lele Mountain again, this "Mr. Sanwu" actually fell down on the table after drinking two cups, and snored loudly again. Looking at Hua Mantian, Yun Zaitian and Flying Spider, although they all had smiles on their faces, the smiles were uglier than when they were not smiling. Ye Kai smiled wryly, it seems that the wine tonight must be very boring, just when this thought came to Ye Kai's mind, Ma Kongqun suddenly spoke. "The Kwantung sword and horse are unparalleled in the world. I wonder if you have heard of this sentence?" Here we come, here we come, finally hit the topic, Ye Kai adjusted his sitting posture, ready to meet the next topic.

"Shendaomen, Wanmatang cross the border city, which one doesn't know, which one doesn't know." Flying Spider said with a smile: "Boss, you are joking." "That was twenty years ago." Ma Kongqun sighed: "Since the master of the Shendao Sect, Bai Yuxian, passed away, in the past twenty years, the Shendao Sect has become a term in history." "How did Senior Bai die?" This question was asked by Murong Mingzhu, originally Ye Kai also wanted to ask, because he wanted to hear how Ma Kongqun would answer this question. Ma Kongqun suddenly fell silent. After a long silence, he sighed again: "The most helpless thing for human beings is birth, old age, sickness and death."

He drank a glass of wine, let the wine slowly flow down his throat, and said: "My brother Bai has never done anything wrong in his life. Although he died at a young age, he died peacefully. No pain at all." No, everyone in Jianghu knew that Bai Tianyu died under the conspiracy of Ma Kongqun, why does he say so now? So Ye Kai naturally wanted to ask: "I heard that Senior Bai seems to have died under someone else's conspiracy." "Rumors in the world are like leaves falling in the wind. No one can guess." Ma Kongqun said calmly, "If he really died under a conspiracy, will I remain indifferent for the past twenty years? Will I just ignore it?"

Since he wanted to say that, Ye Kai had no choice but to listen to it and see what kind of flower he would say? "Fortunately, Brother Bai finally had a daughter after being a hero." Ma Kongqun said with a smile. "You left a daughter?" Even Fu Hongxue was taken aback by this time, he opened his eyes wide and asked. "yes." "I wonder how old Senior Bai's daughter is now?" Ye Kai asked. "Not too big or too young, exactly twenty." He sighed, drank another glass of wine, and said, "Since ancient times, there has been a saying that marry a chicken with a chicken, and marry a dog with a dog. Children take their husband's surname. It's a matter of course, but in this way..."

"Senior Bai is gone." Murong Mingzhu said. "Yes." Ma Kongqun said, "As a brother, how can I have the heart to let this happen? That's why..." "The third boss means that he wants to find a son-in-law for the daughter of Senior Bai." ?” Murong Mingzhu said. "Brothers can only do this." Ma Kongqun said: "But I have lived in a border town for many years, and I rarely go out, and I am a woman, and it is inconvenient to show my face... Fortunately... Fortunately, today-" "Fortunately, some of us came to the border town today." Ye Kai said with a smile: "So the third boss invited us to come here tonight, in order to find a son-in-law for the old man?"

"yes." ——Bai Baiyu has a daughter? Ten years ago, in order to find out Bai Baiyu's only son, they were gathered in Wanmatang. Ten years later, it was to find a husband for Bai Baiyu's only daughter, so he brought them back again. Ye Kai couldn't help laughing in his heart, as far as he knew, he didn't have any siblings, where did this sister come from?What is her name? "Her name?" Ye Kai asked. "Bai Yiling." Murong Mingzhu finished the wine in the glass, and then looked up at Ma Kongqun: "Most men are not willing to be recruited."

"So her dowry is a bit different." Ma Kongqun said with a smile. "Why is it different?" Murong Mingzhu seemed very interested. "Half of Wanmatang's business." Ma Kongqun said indifferently, "There is also Bai Tianyu's magic sword secret book." Half of Wanmatang's career is already mouth-watering, coupled with Bai Tianyu's magic knife secret hair, probably no man would refuse, Ye Kai couldn't help laughing secretly, he had already seen Murong Mingzhu's eyes There was a greedy light in it. Even Lele Mountain, which was half buried in the ground, couldn't help but feel that most of the wine was sober, and the corners of the mouth were full of longing. Although the flying spider's reaction was not as obvious as the two of them, there was a strange look in his eyes. ——With such a good dowry, if the person looks as beautiful as a fairy, it is really a "great" thing! These few people probably already thought of this question, but Ye Kai was the first to ask. "The conditions are so good, how does he look like?" Ye Kai looked at Ma Kongqun and said. "Although it's not stunning, it will leave you stunned." Ma Kongqun said with a smile. "I don't know what is the standard for the third boss's recruiting this time?" Murong Mingzhu said. "The major events in life are not a trifling matter." Ma Kongqun said, "Of course the right to decide lies with her." "Where is she?" Ye Kai said, "When can we meet this pretty young lady?" Ma Kongqun smiled, and turned his eyes to the night outside the window. There was a star blinking in the distance of the sky, and a floating cloud was flowing. Ma Kongqun's eyes were shining like stars, and his voice flowed out of his mouth like floating clouds: "It's late at night, everyone, go to bed early tonight." Ma Kongqun said, "I believe Bai Yiling will come back early tomorrow morning." A gust of phoenix blew past, blowing away the floating clouds that covered half of the cold moon. The night is deeper, the moon is shining, and the horses are silent. In the desert outside the city, how many people can fall asleep in the bleak moonlit night? Ye Kai opened his eyes wide, looking at the night outside the window, he didn't smile. The smile that always hangs on the corner of his mouth will disappear as long as there is no one around. He didn't sleep. Although Wanmatang was silent, his thoughts were surging like thousands of horses. It's a pity that no one knew what he was thinking? He caressed his hand. Between the thumb and index finger of his right hand, it was as rough and hard as sand and stones, and hard lumps had been ground on the palm, which was the mark left by holding the knife for many years. ——"Xiao Li Feidao" was originally intended to be issued with the index finger and thumb, as well as the "righteousness" in the heart. Where is his knife? He never carries a knife. ——Is it because he has hidden the knife in his heart? Fu Hongxue's men were lying on the bed. He didn't sleep, and he still held the black knife tightly in his hand. The bleak moonlight shone on his pale and cold face, clearly delineating the outline of his face. His bright but endlessly lonely eyes were looking at the ceiling. There was an unknown bug crawling on the ceiling, and Fu Hongxue's gaze followed the bug back and forth. The door suddenly opened with a "squeak", and Ye Kai walked in with a smile. "You didn't sleep?" Ye Kai said with a smile. "When you enter other people's rooms, don't you ever knock?" Fu Hongxue said coldly. "I know you're not asleep." Ye Kai found a chair and sat down, "And you're not the kind of person who has secrets for others to know, so of course I came in generously." Ye Kai didn't come empty-handed. He also brought wine and a glass. He poured a glass of wine, smelled it lightly, and took a sip. Then he looked at Fu Hongxue and said, "I'm sorry for this matter. ,What's your opinion?" "Which matter?" Fu Hongxue's eyes still stayed on Xiao Chong, as if Xiao Chong was much prettier than Ye Kai. "Ma Kongqun, Huamantian, everything about Wanmatang." Ye Kai said, "What's your opinion on what happened tonight?" "Congratulations." Fu Hongxue said these words suddenly. He spoke very easily, but Ye Kai almost choked to death from the wine. He wiped the wine splashed from his mouth, and looked at Fu Hongxue with wide eyes. "What did you say?" Ye Kai said, "Can you say it again?" "Congratulations." "Congratulations?" Ye Kai was slightly stunned: "Is there any happy event for me that deserves your congratulations?" "You have an extra sister." Fu Hongxue finally shifted his gaze to Ye Kai: "Isn't this a happy event?" Ye Kai was stunned for a long time, and finally drank half a glass of wine with a wry smile. "So, you take what happened tonight as a matter of course." Ye Kai smiled wryly, "It's as if we didn't come to Wanmatang ten years ago, and people like Ma Kongqun didn't die?" Fu Hongxue didn't answer this question, he just set his eyes on Xiao Chong again. "Then you are still the same as ten years ago, with a knife and hatred, come to revenge?" Ye Kai said: "Of course I am still a prodigal son who meddles in other people's business." Hearing these words, the corners of Fu Hongxue's eyes seemed to twitch, but his mouth remained motionless. "If you have to start over ten years ago, then this younger sister should be yours," Ye Kai said with a smile, "Then I should congratulate you." The corners of Fu Hongxue's mouth also seemed to twitch, But Ye Kai didn't see it, because at this moment he heard a shrill scream. Before the screams disappeared, Ye Kai's people shot out of the window like arrows. As soon as the window opened, a disgusting smell of blood drifted in. Fu Hongxue frowned, then sat up slowly, got out of bed slowly, and walked out the door slowly. As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Murong Mingzhu and Le Leshan also walked out of the door. There were no flying spiders, and his door was still closed. "Did someone scream just now?" Murong Mingzhu looked at Fu Hongxue. Fu Hongxue said nothing, he just looked in the direction of the scream. "What happened?" Leleshan's wine seemed to have not returned. "Just go and have a look." While talking, Murong Mingzhu ran towards the direction Fu Hongxue was looking at, and Le Leshan followed. After they were far away, Fu Hongxue slowly followed with his clumsy and strange footwork. He still hasn't got rid of his temper of not liking to walk ahead of others, and he will always walk behind silently. Is it because he is afraid that someone will slash at his neck from behind? Although he rushed over immediately after hearing the screams, Ye Kai was not the first person to arrive at the scene. When he arrived, there were already four people there, one dead and three alive. Hua Mantian, Gongsun Duan, and Yun Zaitian stared straight at the corpse on the ground with six eyes, and the faces of the three were full of expressions of doubt and terror. The three of them are not people who have not gone through the storm, let alone a corpse, there are already countless people who died under their hands. How could they show such an expression to a corpse? The three of them knew about Ye Kai's arrival, but they still looked at the corpse. Ye Kai felt strange and took a closer look, and then he stared at the corpse like those three people. Who is the dead person? Why does it make them react like this? It wasn't the dead person that surprised them, but the way they died. The cold moon is winding up, hanging obliquely on the horizon. The moonlight was clear, reflecting the face of the flying spider. Ye Kai has never seen so much fear on a person's face, especially a dead person. Flying Spider's face was twisted together in fear, his face was as pale as snowflakes in winter. Ye Kai has never seen a dead person so pale that it is almost transparent, let alone a person whose skin is like a flying spider. Flying Spider is famous for his lightness skills. His muscles are as elastic as a horse's, and his skin has a bronze luster due to long-term exposure to sunlight. But now his muscles had slumped to the ground like a pile of loose fat, and his skin shriveled to the flesh like a deflated sac. His whole body seemed to have been drained of blood. Ye Kai stared at the flying spider, what kind of martial art in the world can absorb all the blood of a person? "Have you seen this kind of death before?" Hua Mantian murmured. "No." Gongsun said decisively. "He doesn't have any scars on his whole body." Yun Zaitian said, "I think he was scared to death." While they were talking, Ye Kai had squatted down, inspected the corpse carefully, and finally found a scar on the left cavity of the flying spider. There were two round, bean-sized wounds, and the blood was still wet, but had condensed around the wounds. "What kind of scar is this?" Hua Mantian and the others saw it too. The four of them squatted down, their eyes all on the two wounds. "It looks like all his blood was sucked from these two wounds." Yun Zaitian said. "What weapons in the martial arts world can cause such wounds?" Gongsun Duan said. Ye Kai, who had been checking in silence, suddenly said, "This is a tooth mark." "Tooth marks?" "This is the wound caused by being bitten by the teeth." Ye Kai said. "Teeth?" A strange expression suddenly appeared on Hua Mantian's face: "You mean...to be sucked..." "Yes, vampire." As soon as these three words were uttered, everyone's expressions changed. According to ancient legend, when a person dies on "July 7", if the body is jumped over by a black cat, it will undergo a "dead change". This kind of "necromorphic" corpse is called "zombie". There is another kind, that is, when a person dies and is just buried in the "wolf's lair", after seventy-seven forty-nine days, the corpse will absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and after a hundred days, the corpse will be resurrected again and will come out of the coffin. On nights with bright moonlight, this "corpse man" that emerges from the coffin will look for human beings, and use its two particularly long canine teeth to bite the blood veins on the human shins to suck human blood. This kind of "corpse man" is called "vampire". It is said that "vampires" cannot be killed by any weapon. Only by using mahogany wood, sharpened into sharp stakes, and then inserted into the heart of "vampires", can "vampires" be killed.A dark cloud floated over, just covering the moon, and a gust of wind blew over from the north, blowing past Ye Kai and the others. Huamantian and Yunzaitian seemed to tremble in the wind, their mouths were tightly closed, maybe it was because of the cold?or fear? "It's just an old folk tale." Gongsun Duan said, "How could it be true?" "At present, we can only believe this." Ye Kai said, "Otherwise, do you have a better explanation?" "I do not believe." This sentence was said by Fu Hongxue. Although he walked behind Murong Mingzhu and the others, he arrived together. "Oh?" Ye Kai smiled: "You don't believe that flying spiders were killed by vampires?" "I don't believe there are vampires in this world." Fu Hongxue stared at the two blood holes on the flying spider's shin. "Then what kind of weapon is this kind of wound caused by?" Hua Mantian asked. "I don't know." Fu Hongxue said. The night wind in the border town is as cold as the ice and snow on Mount Everest that has not melted for a thousand years, but the moonlight is more melancholy than that in the south of the Yangtze River. Looking at the corpses on the ground, Le Leshan suddenly said in a trembling voice, "It is said that people who are bitten to death by vampires will also become vampires the next night, and will also rise up to suck human blood..." "And he will be under the control of the vampire who bit him." Yun Zaitian said. "I've heard of this legend." Ye Kai said with a smile, "It seems that we have to wait until tomorrow night to find out if there are any vampires." "What if it is true..." Le Leshan heard his own voice trembling: "What should I do?" "Cold salad." Ye Kai said: "If there are vampires, we have to run away. I heard that vampires can't be killed." Le Leshan didn't speak anymore, but everyone could hear his teeth chattering. "As far as I know, cutting a stake out of mahogany and inserting it into a vampire's heart is the only way to kill a vampire," said Murong Mingzhu. "Then let's each prepare a piece of cut mahogany tomorrow!" Ye Kai laughed again. At this time, it was not far from dawn, and the body of the flying spider was quickly sent to the cellar of Wanmatang. Everyone was exhausted and went back to their rooms to rest, but Ye Kai still couldn't fall asleep, his eyes widened and he stared out of the window again. His brows were slightly furrowed again, and whenever he encountered a problem that required thinking, his brows would be furrowed. Although Ye Kai's eyes were wide open, but after thinking about it, before he knew it, he fell asleep. At this time, a thick fog suddenly floated in from the window, and it filled the entire room in an instant. In the dense fog, a figure slowly appeared, a woman with a slender figure and long hair draped over her shoulders. This person was standing in the misty, icy cold thick fog, as if he had been standing there since ancient times, and he seemed to have just condensed out of the thick fog. Although this person is colder than ice and snow, he is as ethereal and misty as fog. Although this person could be seen to be a woman, he couldn't see her face clearly, only her white clothes were like fog, and her whole face was hazy like fog. The man in the fog seemed to be looking at Ye Kai on the bed. After a while, a soft sigh came from the fog. If Ye Kai was awake at this time, he would definitely be heartbroken because of this sigh. No one can describe how sad this sigh is, but everyone can definitely hear that there are so many words, so many longings, and so many complaints in this sigh. After the person in the fog sighed softly, she said softly in her plaintive voice: "There are many things in this world that people can't imagine." She paused for a while, then continued: "You must believe that there is a mysterious force that cannot be achieved by human beings in the dark, and you must never fight with this mysterious force, you must remember it. " The fog is off-white, and the people in the fog are also off-white. The smog is thick, and the people in the fog are also misty, if there is nothing. Is she human?Or a ghost? When Fu Hongxue woke up, he was indifferent and solitary, with a look of rejecting others thousands of miles away, but what about when he fell asleep? Turning sideways, bending his legs, and bending his waist, Moto Nai's face was like a child being wronged, and with a trace of fright, a trace of longing could be vaguely seen on his closed eyes. What does he long for? Family? friendship? Or is it love? I'm afraid even he himself doesn't know about this issue, and even if he knew, he would never say it, let alone admit it. On Fu Hongxue's weather-stained and tired face, one can vaguely find a childish look. Looking at him sleeping now, he looks like a naughty child who is tired from playing and falls into a deep sleep. Even if there is a thunderstorm, he will never wake up. his. The night wind was the coldest at dawn, and it seemed to be very strong, blowing the windows open all at once. While the curtains were fluttering, there was a faint singing that seemed to come from hell, and it seemed to be an echo from the top of the ethereal mountain. "The End of the World Road, no one has returned... People are at the end of the world where their souls are broken, and their souls are already broken before they reach the end of the world..." As soon as the singing started, before it stopped, Fu Hongxue's eyes opened like lightning, and the veins on the left hand holding the knife became more prominent. "The flowers are not tuned, the moon is not missing, Where does the moon shine? There are roses in the sky..." When the pause sounded again, Fu Hongxue frowned slightly. The lyrics were very familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere not long ago. "The End of the World Road, unreturned, midnight, People lose their souls. " Before the song fell, Fu Hongxue's eyes lit up, and he already thought of who sang this song. Yan Nanfei. That Yan Nanfei who was trained by Gong Ziyu as a puppet. The frown that had just been loosened quickly frowned again, and the frown was even deeper, because Fu Hongxue hadn't forgotten one thing. Fu Hongxue has not forgotten that Yan Nanfei was killed by his knife. If Yan Nanfei wasn't singing this song, then who was singing it? Who will sing this song? And why did you come to this city to sing? This burst of singing seems to have come to the border town to sing for Fu Hongxue? Only those who have seen the singing in the middle of the night know about these various problems. Following the singing, Fu Hongxue quickly walked out of Wanmatang, the singing seemed to come from the woods. After walking into the forest, Fu Hongxue realized that the forest was unfathomably deep. Looking around, it was full of tall giant trees. The roots of the trees are intertwined, and the low chirping of wild animals can be heard from time to time in the forest. The singing seems to be in the deepest part of this virgin forest. Fu Hongxue adjusted his body, and then walked towards the dark place step by step. The further he walked, the clearer his singing became. The singing voice really came from this forest, but who was singing it?
