After breakfast the next day, Mr. Wu called everyone to discuss countermeasures.Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou sat on one side, Cui Xing and Xiao Fang sat on the other side.Cui Xing and the deceased Qiu Ji were best friends, and last night they kept vigil for their friends and stayed up all night.Seeing Xiao Fang this morning, his expression was very bad, and he still suspected that he was the murderer of his friend.

Opposite Xiaofang is Huamanlou.Hua Manlou swung the lid of the cup and took a sip of tea.Xiao Fang also picked up the tea bowl, opened the lid, the tea was yellow-green, the tea leaves were thin, sinking to the bottom of the bowl, very cute.Xiao Fang took a sip, knew it was yellow buds, liked it very much, and thought that the host of Bingzhulou, Mr. Wu, really knows how to treat guests.

After everyone finished drinking tea, Lord Wu said: "Only me and brother Cui are left in the fast sword list. As for this little brother, there should be no danger for the time being. If the throat-closing madman hears the news that we are gathered here, With his killing speed, he should arrive soon."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng seemed to think of something, and said: "Although the previous cases were far away, the interval between them was not too long. I am very familiar with everyone on the list."

Lou Zhu said: "To be honest, I also doubt whether this person is our common acquaintance. I have sent someone to find Bai Xiaosheng to inquire about it. There should be news in the near future."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "If it's a mutual friend, I should have discovered it a long time ago, and I don't know who he is until now..." Lu Xiaofeng touched his eyebrow-like beard with his fingers, lost in thought.He felt that the murderer must be someone unexpected.

Hua Manlou said: "Please take good care of Master Wu and Brother Cui, and keep your energy up so that you can deal with the devil. Brother Cui, you didn't sleep last night. I have some breath-regulating medicines here, which can help you regain your energy." .”

Cui Xing cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Dude." Thinking of Qiu Ji, he sighed, "If I hadn't proposed this time, brother Qiu would not have come to the capital either. I was the one who killed him!"

Hua Manlou said: "The world is unpredictable, Brother Cui, don't blame yourself. Have you sent someone to inform Brother Qiu's family?"

Cui Xing nodded: "It has been notified."

Master Wu slapped the table and said loudly: "I wish that madman would show up soon so as to avenge Brother Qiu." Lu Xiaofeng frowned and said, "Brother Wu, I think it's better to be careful about this matter. The first few Those who died under the Mad Demon Sword did not have low martial arts skills, but none of them escaped the throat-sealing sword, there must be another mystery behind it."

Host Wu was a little displeased: "According to Brother Lu, what should we do about this matter?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Since this person came to kill in order, the next step is to target Brother Cui. We might as well sit on the sidelines and wait."

Louzhu Wu said: "That's what I mean too." He looked at Cui Xing: "Brother Cui, what do you think?"

Cui Xing clenched his sword tightly: "Cui Xing and him are inseparable."

Master Wu said: "That's it, I'll let my servants spread the news that Mr. Wu and brother Cui are waiting for you at Bingzhulou."

Apart from drinking, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't sit still for long.After discussing with Master Wu, Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou left the hall.Xiao Fang was an insignificant person here, so he also left, and the remaining host Wu and Cui Xing went to worship Qiu Ji together.

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou walked in front, Xiao Fang stayed far behind.

Hua Manlou said: "Lu Xiaofeng, what guesses do you have about the murderer?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Hua Man Lou, did you feel any strange feeling when you touched Brother Qiu's wound yesterday?"

Hua Manlou said: "It's really strange. Although the wound is flat, it's too deep."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded and said: "A person who can seal the top few fast swordsmen in the world with a single sword must have extremely high martial arts, and must be extremely accurate with the sword, but looking at the wound, it looks like a novice did it - all this is not true. Is it weird?"

Hua Manlou said: "Could it be that this person started killing people and has never fought anyone before?"

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head: "Novices don't like to seal their throats with a sword, even if it's a novice killer. Only veterans can be so calm, not to mention that killers have a stronger learning ability, and Qiu Ji doesn't have to be so clumsy anymore."

Hua Manlou said: "It seems that only those who understand swords can see new things."

Lu Xiaofeng also smiled: "Exactly."

The breeze blows.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "There is going to be another storm in this world." After finishing speaking, the two walked out of the courtyard side by side.

After leaving the courtyard, Xiao Fang did not continue to follow.He thought about it and decided to go back to sleep.

Back in his room, he bolted the door, and lay on the bed with his arms pillowed on his head. Xiao Fang couldn't help but recall the back of Hua Manlou just now.

This feeling of being within reach but having to pretend to be a transparent person in front of the other party... Xiao Fang held the cup and rolled around several times, scratching his head in his heart, especially wanting to say a few more words to the current Hua Man Lou, but his face was full of annoyance. Be calm, don't express any thoughts.

I hope this mission will end soon, he really wants to spend the whole building.

Also, we must find a way to find Li Jie'an.Xiao Fang closed his eyes and entered his consciousness, opened the map, and searched for Li Jie'an's location.But it didn't show on the map, but it did show the location of the individual in the villa.Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou didn't go far, they seemed to be just walking beside Bingzhulou, or looking for suspicious persons.

Cui Xing returned to the room.Cui Xing's room is next door to Xiao Fang's. He probably remembered Hua ManLou's reminder and got ready to take a good rest.It can be seen from the map that the number of guards around the room has increased significantly.

However, no matter how many guards there are, can they stop the throat-sealing sword?

Lord Wu is in Bingzhu Tower.There are some concubines and dancers in the Wu family in Bingzhulou, maybe the owner of Wu is enjoying a rare relaxation.

Qiu Ji's mourning hall is located in a room outside the main building, and it is a corner with the main building and the guest room. It took a lot of thought to arrange it for Mr. Wu.

Xiao Fang turned off the system and opened his eyes.He didn't know who the murderer was, but as everyone said, the murderer's next target must be Cui Xing.He simply leaned half on the bed, ready to rest while listening to the movement outside the house.

He looked around the room and saw basic books on the shelves.Xiao Fang was too lazy to get out of bed, so he tried his best to look at the bookshelf, trying to find a book to pass the time.Mr. Wu has a wide range of interests, even in the guest rooms, there are basically interesting books.Xiao Fang stretched out his hand and spread his five fingers, a force emerged from the palm of his hand, Xiao Fang shook hands again, and a book fell into his palm.

If one of the most well-informed people in the arena would probably recognize this trick, which is the long-lost method of attracting stars.

Xiao Fang got the book with the method of absorbing stars, and he was in a great mood. He secretly thought that this martial art must be practiced well, and it might be of great use in the future. up.

Xiao Fang picked up the book and flipped through it casually.This book is called "Zhiguailu", which records many supernatural phenomena, and it is quite interesting to read.The book is a bit thick, but the text is very short, but it is accompanied by many illustrations, which are exquisite and lifelike.

Xiao Fang watched and felt a little sleepy before he knew it.He dozed against the head of the bed, and the book slipped from his hands.There is an illustration drawn on the page of the book, with majestic mountains in the distance and a peach forest nearby.Under a huge peach blossom tree, the figure of a man with fluttering sleeves looms...

Xiao Fang heard a bell ring.The bell sounded like a bell tied around the horse's neck, and the sound was clear and clear. Hearing this sound, one couldn't wait to go home.

He found himself holding a white horse by the hand.And beside the white horse, is a handsome black horse.The bridle of the black horse was in another hand.The man was holding the horse with one hand, and the other was behind his back. A thumb-shaped jade pendant hung on his belt. The jade pendant was warm in texture and warm after holding it for a long time—just like a human being.

"Huamanlou..." Xiao Fang couldn't help calling the other party's name.

The man turned his face slightly, smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to straighten Xiao Fang's hair that was blown by the wind: "It's here, as I said earlier, it's not far away."

Xiao Fang was stunned, feeling the warmth from Hua Manlou's fingertips still on his face.He stretched out his hand to touch, but Hua Manlou withdrew his hand.

Only then did Xiao Fang look in front of him.There is a peach forest in front of you, the ground is green and grassy, ​​and when the wind blows, it will fall colorfully.

"Where is this place?" Xiao Fang had never seen such a big peach grove, and couldn't help being a little shocked.

"This is called a peach grove. It is planted and maintained by nearby fruit farmers. They come to pick peaches in summer, but not many people come in spring."

"Why?" Xiao Fang looked at Hua Man Lou and asked, "Why doesn't anyone come to such a beautiful scene?"

Hua Manlou turned his head and thought for a while: "Probably... there are more lively places to go."

"Huamanlou, I like this place." Xiao Fang led the horse and walked two steps quickly: "A place with a lot of people is noisy, this is just right, there are only the two of us."

Hua Manlou smiled, let go of the rein, and patted the horse. The horse lowered its head and went for a leisurely walk on its own.Xiao Fang also imitated him by letting go of the rein, and just as he let the horse go, he saw Hua Manlou stretching out his hand.

Xiao Fang held it happily, and the two walked side by side to the depths of the peach forest.Xiao Fang sometimes reached out to reach for the peach branches, sometimes he took Huamanlou to watch the rabbits, and sometimes he went to provoke the butterflies, but Huamanlou always held his hand.

Xiao Fang felt unprecedented satisfaction.He wished he could fall on the green grass, but Hua Manlou reminded him that the grass was very wet.Hua Manlou whistled, and the black horse ran over briskly.Hua Manlou unpacked the horse's back, laid out the mat, and laid out the food in the food box.

You can still eat such a rich food in the wild, which caused Xiao Fang to move his index finger, and he couldn't wait to taste it.Hua Manlou shook his head with a smile, and handed over the chopsticks.

As soon as the wind passed, the peach blossoms fell one after another.

"All the flowers fell into the dish." Xiao Fang picked up the peach blossoms that fell into the dish one by one. He always felt that it would be bad to eat them directly in his stomach.

"Don't move." Hua Manlou suddenly reminded.

Xiao Fang was leaning forward with his chopsticks ready to speak, but he did not move when he heard this.Hua Manlou reached out to remove the flower on Xiao Fang's head.

The two were very close.No one noticed at first, until they heard each other's breath.

As soon as Xiao Fang raised his head, he touched Hua Manlou's lips.Hua Manlou's hand held Xiao Fang's shoulder.

The sky is full of flowers, but no one cares about it anymore.
