Head down? "Thinking of the words that everyone in the world will change color after hearing this, Su Jie raised the corners of her lips, and her eyes were filled with frost: "With such a background, it's no wonder that she can become Lin Xian'er's prey. "
"Where did they go?"
The deputy gang leader smiled and shook his head: "I haven't found out later. If I didn't track it on purpose, it would be difficult to find clues once I left the city. It will take a few days to know the specific whereabouts."
"You guys did a good job." Su Jie pushed two gold tickets in front of him with her fingertips, totaling 2000 taels.
2000 taels of gold converted into silver is 2 taels, but the price of gold is even higher when it is actually converted.Fortunately, the battle at the top of the Forbidden City made him rich overnight, and he won several 10 taels of gambling money, which is still affordable.
The man was immediately overjoyed, took the golden ticket and said with a smile: "Young Master Su, you really do what you say."
However, before he was happy, the competitor came through the door without even looking at him, walked up to Su Jie, clasped his fists and said to him, "Master Su, we have found Lin Xian'er's whereabouts."
As soon as this remark came out, the face of the deputy head of the Qingsha gang immediately collapsed. Su Jie and the reporter looked at each other, and then the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "So the conditions?"
Suddenly his purpose was thwarted, the man looked at him calmly, and then said loudly: "Young master Su is really smart, don't worry, it's not a hard request, after all, we are all people who preach the rules. It's just the leader's order Well, the amount of money this time is large, so I must see is believing before I can give you the news, it would be best if I could pay [-]% of the deposit first."
When investigating the whereabouts of Lin Xianer and Hua Manlou, they also investigated Su Jie's background by the way.The result is that this person is very likely to be a member of the Demon Cult, who has committed many evils and harmed the righteous way of martial arts.Moreover, it is suspected that he has practiced evil swordsmanship, because he has become a eunuch and hates normal men, so before killing people, he must also become a eunuch. Yu Canghai, the head of the Qingcheng faction, was murdered by him, and what he did was heinous .
After getting this result, the guild leader, the two deputy guild leaders and several hall lords were stunned. They suddenly felt that they were seeking skin with a tiger, and they were using their lives to seek it.But he didn't dare to be passive and sabotage, for fear of angering this lunatic and offending the Sun Moon God Sect behind him, after all, even the head of the Qingcheng faction fell into his hands.
Then everyone started throwing blame at each other, anyway, no one wanted to be the one who stood in front of Su Jie.Until this usually unremarkable deputy hall master stepped forward, everyone was happy with the result, and everyone praised him for his courage and courage, which can be of great use.Then they gave him a beautiful woman that night, and they almost told him to leave an incense stick before letting him go.
The deputy hall master looked at Su Jie's face that could make a succulent radiate, although his expression was calm, his heart was still hanging, and he didn't fall down until he heard "yes".
He knew he was right.
His martial arts are mediocre, and he is unremarkable in the gang, but he is not surprised when he knows how to employ people and has a stable temperament.He knew his chance had come when senior executives were bucking each other.
Because Liu Zhengfeng was there on the day of the Golden Basin Handwashing Conference and watched the whole process.He has an intuitive understanding of Su Jie's martial arts and temperament, and the other party is definitely not a member of the Sun Moon God Sect, because Qu Yang doesn't know him at all.As for why such rumors spread, he didn't need to think about it to know that it must be the ghost of those famous and decent families. If they can't beat it, it is their usual tactic to pour dirty water and force the demonization.
As long as this matter is done well, he will surely stand out in the gang and be reused.
"Follow me." Su Jie led the man up to the second floor, then opened a box on the table and took out a stack of letters, after a glance, he took out one and handed it to the man.
The man who thought it was a golden ticket opened it, but was stunned on the spot. It was just an ordinary piece of paper, but some routes and terrains were drawn on it, which finally pointed to a certain place, which turned out to be a map.He asked puzzledly, "What is this?"
Su Jie replied lightly: "Gold mine."
The man was shocked: "Gold mine?!"
Su Jie nodded: "If the information you gave is true, this one will also be handed over to you." He said with two fingers and took out another letter and put it on the table.
The man's Adam's apple rolled, and he looked at the dozen or so letters in his hand with fiery eyes. Could it be that those are...
Paying attention to his gaze, Su Jie smiled slightly: "If what you find is Huamanlou, these will all be yours."
The man collected himself, moved his eyes away from the letters with difficulty, and looked at Su Jie with a forced calm look: "Mr. Su, this is different from what we agreed. You said it was for gold, not to mention digging for gold." Gold mining is a capital offense."
"Really?" Su Jie glanced at him with a half-smile, then showed a contemplative expression, and knocked on the table after a while: "It's not difficult at all. I heard that the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River is like a forest, and the rich merchants are like a cloud. There is always someone who can eat something that is not enough. Let me find someone who can eat it and sell these two blueprints for 100 million taels of silver. The two gold mines are far more than 10 taels of gold. It must not be difficult to sell , and then how about I give you another one million taels of silver?"
Of course not!Only a fool would agree to this kind of exchange. The man put away his thoughts immediately and apologized with a smile: "Although it is a bit troublesome, we can still afford it, so you don't have to worry about it, my lord."
"Can you say it?" Su Jie asked.
The man wanted to doubt the authenticity of the drawing, but his heart skipped a beat when he saw Shang Su Jie's indifferent gaze, and he felt that the other party's patience would run out if he continued to ask, which was not a good thing for him, so he quickly sent Lin Xian'er's whereabouts were revealed.
After the messenger left, Su Jie also immediately left for where Lin Xian'er was.
Night falls.
Lin Xian'er touched A Fei's sleeping face, poured out his half-drunk tea, and the gentle smile on his face was tinged with malice.Her cheeks were slightly red, her eyes were full of spring water, and there seemed to be a fire burning in her heart. Every time she set A Fei on fire, she couldn't escape it.
But no, any man in the world can do it, only Ah Fei can't.
She likes to torture him, seeing how he is in pain and has to endure it forcibly.
After a while, she stood up, opened the door as lightly and silently as a cat, and walked out, even though she knew that Ah Fei would never wake up anyway.
She walked to the door of another room and knocked twice, and a hoarse voice came from inside: "Come in."
Lin Xian'er pushed open the door with a touching and sweet smile on her face, and met a pair of cold eyes.
There was no emotion in these eyes, not even life, and they were hardly the eyes of a living person.Because of this, the people who fall into these eyes are not like living people, but stones and rotten wood.
Those strange eyes made Lin Xian'er feel cold, but her smile was still sweet, and she asked softly, "Is that Mr. Jing?"
Jing Wuming looked at her, without any waves in his eyes, this peerless beauty was like a dead thing in his eyes: "Are you Lin Xian'er?"
Lin Xian'er replied softly: "Yes."
Jing Wuming: "You asked me to meet here?"
Lin Xianer: "Yes."
"why?"
"Shangguan Gangzhu wants to experience the evil swordsmanship that was invincible in the underworld in the past. I have a way to make that person fall into the trap."
Jing Wuming was silent for a moment, then asked again: "Why did you do this?"
Lin Xian'er's eyes showed hatred and resentment: "I hate him, I want him to die."
She will never forget the days when her face was destroyed, she almost went crazy.Although it was later found out that Long Xiaoyun did it, but it is impossible for Long Xiaoyun to do it for no reason, it must be that person behind the scenes.
So she hated him more than she hated Li Xunhuan!
Jing Wuming said coldly: "Will he come?"
"He will definitely come." Lin Xianer's tone was extremely firm, and then she smiled softly: "Because his most important person is in my hands."
Jing Wuming turned his back to her without saying a word after listening, Lin Xianer looked at his back and felt hesitant.She has always believed in her own charm, but she really can't understand the man in front of her, and she is not sure.
In the end, she smiled wryly and gave up, because she felt that what she was facing was a rock, not a man: "If Mr. Jing is fine, I will leave first."
Jing Wuming walked to the table, picked up the teacup, swallowed a pill with the cold tea, and then said: "I heard that you are very good at seducing men, isn't it?"
Lin Xian'er blushed, she lowered her head shyly: "But I dare not seduce you."
Jing Wuming turned and looked at her: "Why?"
Lin Xian'er said softly, "Because you are different from those men, you..."
Before she finished speaking, a low laugh came from outside the window, and Jing Wuming's eyes sharpened: "Who?"
The closed window suddenly shattered, and a slender whip shadow flashed out of the darkness like a poisonous snake, hooked Lin Xianer's neck and dragged her to the window.Jing Wuming didn't care about Lin Xian'er who was strangled at all, and directly stabbed out the window with his sword.
This sword was as fast as lightning, extremely sharp, and its momentum was not inferior to those swordsmen Su Jie knew.
He withdrew his whip to dodge the sword, then jumped into the room, looked at Jing Wuming for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Mr. Jing, right? If you would rather take medicine and hug a woman, then I suggest you change it One, because she might get ugly later on."
☆、Chapter 53
Hearing the word "take medicine", Lin Xian'er, who was coughing while clutching her neck, looked at Jing Wuming in shock.
Jing Wuming didn't even look at her, and his expression didn't change. He looked at Su Jie coldly and asked, "Who are you?"
Su Jie also restrained her smile, and said in a cold tone, "You took Huamanlou away just to lure me here?"
Jing Wuming finally had a wave in his eyes: "You are Su Jie."
Su Jie: "Yes, I'm here, where is Huamanlou?"
Jing Wuming didn't answer, his cold gaze swept over him, and he asked blankly, "Where's your sword?"
"I don't use a sword." Su Jie frowned, and asked again: "Where is Huamanlou?"
Jing Wuming still fixed his eyes on him: "How can you practice evil sword skills without a sword?"
Su Jie: "..."
After a while, he chuckled: "I'm sorry, I didn't hear clearly, what did you say to practice just now?"
Jing Wuming: "Evil warding off swordsmanship."
Su Jie was silent for a while this time, and then moved his gaze down inch by inch, fixed on the tent that Jing Wuming forcibly set up because of the power of the medicine, then stretched out a hand to Jing Wuming, and said softly: "Is the medicine still available?" ? Give me one."
Jing Wuming looked at him expressionlessly, unmoved.
Su Jie looked back at him, and said seriously, "I think I must be older than you."
Jing Wuming: "..."
It was also after a long time before Jing Wuming said, "You haven't practiced the evil sword technique?" Now everyone in the world knows that if you want to practice the evil sword technique, you have to come from the palace. If Su Jie didn't come from the palace, naturally he didn't practice that Evil warding off swordsmanship.
Su Jie flicked the whip in his hand: "I don't even use a sword, what do you think?"
Jing Wuming stopped talking, but did not leave, standing there like a stone statue.Seeing this, Su Jie ignored him and walked straight to Lin Xian'er. Lin Xian'er was not panicked when she saw this, but instead showed him a sweet smile.
Su Jie was completely indifferent to this, and asked word by word: "Let me ask one last time, where is Huamanlou?"
Lin Xian'er's eyes fluttered, with a trace of pride and confidence, she said with a coquettish smile: "I am the only one in this world who knows where he is, if you want to know, please ask me."
Su Jie looked down at her, slowly raised the corners of his lips, and he nodded: "Okay."
As soon as the words fell, he reached out and grabbed Lin Xian'er's hair and threw her out of the way. Lin Xian'er didn't cry out in pain, but let out a groan, lay on the ground and looked at him charmingly, giggling and saying: " So you like this, why didn't you say it earlier?"
She likes to torture others and make them suffer, and at the same time she also likes pain. The rougher the man is, the more satisfied she is.
Su Jie walked over and knelt down in front of her, took out a small knife under her slightly excited gaze, and then inserted/inserted her hand backhand, the sharp blade pierced through her tender palm three inches into the ground in the blood splattered. more than enough.
Amid Lin Xianer's sharp screams, Su Jie said softly, "I beg you."
Seeing him take out another knife, Lin Xian'er got scared, turned her pale face to Jing Wuming for help, but only met his calm eyes like stagnant water.
Lin Xian'er felt a chill in her heart for a moment. No one would save her, and the only person who would protect her regardless of anything had already been knocked down by her own cup of magic/drug.
Immediately, the other hand was completely nailed to the ground, and Su Jie chuckled, "I beg you."
"I'll say! I'll say anything!" Lin Xian'er screamed and shed tears, she was really scared, he is not a man at all, he is a devil, she shouldn't provoke this devil at all!
Su Jie stopped, and Lin Xian'er's originally pleasant voice had become hoarse, and she said tremblingly, "He's in the small building behind."
Su Jie pulled out a knife when he heard the words, and looked at the blood splashed on the beautiful face, his smile became softer: "I remember the first time we met, I said you made me feel sick. But what I didn't tell you is that, besides disgusting , and I feel very happy."
He slowly wiped the blood from the blade on Lin Xian'er's clothes, and the cruelty and smile in the depths of his eyes mixed together: "Just like you feel happy when you torture others, for me, torturing you People also make me feel enjoyable, happy, and excited.”
"The first time I let you go, and the second time I held back, I just let Long Xiaoyun teach you a little lesson, but—" The smile on the corner of his mouth became more cruel, and he held the other hand The knife twirled around in Lin Xianer's hand before pulling it out forcefully: "Why did you give me a third chance?"
Obviously the pain is going crazy, but because of the fear, she can't even scream in her throat. Lin Xian'er is trembling all over, even her teeth are chattering. Again and again, he calculated the lunatic in front of him.
He was scarier than anyone she had ever seen!
Enduring the severe pain and fear, relying on a strong desire to survive, Lin Xian'er said with difficulty: "You...can't kill me, because if I die, Huamanlou will...can't live..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that the air around her became heavy, and she could hardly breathe. Because of the pain and fear, she couldn't raise her head to see Su Jie's expression, and naturally she couldn't see his darkening momentarily. The smile disappeared from the eyes and the corners of the mouth.
Lin Xian'er only heard a faint question from above her head: "Why?"
She regained a bit of confidence, because she knew very well how important Hua Manlou was to this lunatic, otherwise how could she say "I will never go back with a smell of blood"?Being so careful made her believe that she had found the man's weakness.
Facts have proved that she is right, but things are completely different from what she imagined, but now all she can grasp is this straw.
She took a breath and said slowly: "He has been poisoned, and only I know the antidote."
What answered her was silence. In this silence, her heart beat faster and faster. The unspeakable panic made her tremble even more uncontrollably, and she almost collapsed.
"Very good." A voice without any emotion came from the top of the head, and the next moment there was a sharp pain in the scalp, Su Jie had stood up and pulled her hair and dragged her out, like dragging an animal generally.
Su Jie dragged Lin Xian'er towards the outside of the house, and didn't pay him any attention when passing by Jing Wuming. From the beginning to the end, he didn't seem to care whether Jing Wuming would suddenly attack him, as if this top killer The swordsman is really just a humanoid statue.
Jing Wuming suddenly became a little curious about this person, which has never happened before, his world has always been barren, except for Shangguan Jinhong, there is nothing, and nothing is important.So this emotion seemed particularly strange, and before he could figure it out, he had already subconsciously stepped forward and followed.
Lin Xian'er was dragged all the way to the direction of the small building. Because of the heavy clothes on her body, she didn't suffer any injuries, but the fear in her heart became more and more intense.She suddenly realized that she seemed to have made another wrong decision. Since Su Jie attached so much importance to Hua Manlou, wouldn't she let her go even more knowing that she poisoned Hua Manlou?
But it was too late to regret it, and she could only hope that Su Jie would cast a trap and let her go for the cure.Even if it is only temporarily, as long as she is given a little time, she will leave here immediately, and truly "disappear" in this world from then on.
Because what she used was not poison at all, but Miao Jiang's Gu, and she didn't have the so-called antidote in her hand, only a pill that could temporarily suppress the Gu insect.
Su Jie didn't let go of him when she reached the stairs of the small building, she still dragged her hair and walked up. Lin Xian'er bit her lower lip tightly and dared not make a sound.Even if the bones in her whole body were about to fall apart, and her scalp hurt like it was about to be torn off, she didn't dare to make a sound, because she was afraid that if she made a sound, the other party's attention would be drawn to herself again.
Su Jie stopped outside the door, raised her hand and knocked on the door, and a crisp girl's voice came from the door: "Who is it?"
Su Jie put down her hand, then kicked open the door silently and walked in. The grandparents and grandchildren who were in the room with terrified faces immediately froze when they saw Lin Xian'er who was dragged in by him in such a mess.
Su Jie only glanced at them, then looked away indifferently, then landed on Lin Xian'er, and asked lightly, "Do you still want me to beg you?"
Compared with just now, his attitude at this moment is simply peaceful, but Lin Xian'er is even more frightened. The other party seems to have already figured out how to deal with her, so he doesn't continue to waste his emotions on her.
Like, would you waste your affection on insignificant dead people?
This thought made Lin Xian'er fall into an ice cave, but she dared not answer his question: "In the bedroom."
There is a secret passage under the bed board in the bedroom, which is usually used to secretly meet various men behind Ah Fei's back, so she puts Huamanlou here, and once she finds something wrong, the grandpa and grandson will immediately take Huamanlou out of the room. The secret passage left, and no one could find out immediately.
Su Jie finally let go of Lin Xian'er. He took two steps toward the bedroom, then stopped again, raised his hand to take off the blood-stained coat, and then washed his hands carefully with the water from the teapot on the table. The blood spattered on his face, and finally wiped his hands clean before walking over again.
He lifted the covering curtain, and finally saw the person who made him miss him.
Hua Manlou was sitting at the table with an open book in his hand. His eyebrows and eyes were the same as before, with deep gentleness. He was a gentleman, his heart was like the bright moon, and his people were like the bright moon.
The remaining hostility in her heart disappeared instantly, and Su Jie felt that her heart had never been so soft as it was at this moment.
Hua Manlou's voice was as gentle as his expression: "You are here."
"Yes." Su Jie slowly walked in front of him. The closer he got, the faster the barriers built in his heart would collapse, but this time he didn't try to struggle again.
"I'm late."
Hua Manlou smiled when he heard the words: "I thought you would never come to see me again."
Su Jie didn't feel the slightest bit of embarrassment, and smiled: "I thought so too, but later I found out that I was wrong. It is easy to control one's desire, but it is very difficult to control one's heart." .Because desires can be replaced and transferred with stronger desires, but there is only one heart. If it is not obedient, not only cannot it be replaced, even resistance and escape are futile."
"Besides, you gave me this, do you really think I won't come back?" Su Jie put the jade pendant in his hand, with a trace of helplessness in his tone.
Holding the jade pendant, Hua Manlou smiled deeper: "My intentions are not necessarily for you to accept."
However, the more he said that, the more Su Jie felt that he was being eaten to death by the other party. What should the lamp do for moths?It's very simple, it only needs to remove the outer cover, and then continue to emit bright light and gentle warmth. If it can't hit the outer cover, the moths can only pounce into its arms.
"It's very difficult to take back what was given to me." He stretched out his hand to cover the jade pendant, and then held the slender hand together: "This is mine now."
Hua Manlou said nothing, but smiled more gently, and then lightly held the hand in the palm of his hand.
☆、Chapter 54
The warmth came continuously from the clasped palms, and the tenderness made Su Jie greedy and reluctant to let go.
It turns out that the feeling of liking someone is not distorted, ferocious, or hysterical.It's not like the one he drank in the city of drunkenness and dreams, crazy enough to burn his soul, so obsessed that he can't think about anything except ta every minute and every second.I can't wait to hold my whole body and mind and all my dignity at his feet, even if I am crushed by her foot, as long as I can stop my eyes for a moment, I will feel extremely happy and satisfied.
It wasn't until now that he understood that liking someone is warm, sweet, long-lasting pleasure and unstoppable joy.
"You..." They said at the same time, and then they both stopped, and after a short silence, they couldn't help laughing together again.
Hua Manlou smiled: "You talk first."
"Okay." Su Jie still held his hand and asked, "Why are you here? I have been to Baihualou and found that you left voluntarily."
Hua Manlou nodded: "That's right, I did leave with that person voluntarily, because he said you were here and someone wanted your life."
This answer was completely beyond Su Jie's expectations, and he was even a little dumbfounded: "You believe what he said? You have also seen me fighting swords with Master Ximen, how could I fall into someone else's hands so easily? "
"Of course I don't believe it." Hua Manlou squeezed his hand slightly, and said in a low voice, "But what if?"
Su Jie was startled, and then a softer smile appeared in his eyes: "Although there is no chance, if it were you, I would make the same choice."
"Second thing."
He slowly leaned close to Huamanlou's ear, and said softly, "Huamanlou, I miss you very much."
Feeling that the person in front of her was out of breath for a moment, Su Jie gave a light smile, then turned her head slightly, and her thin lips with a hint of coolness fell apart at the touch of Hua Manlou's face. .
Hua Manlou's expression was blank for a moment, then he frowned slightly, and stretched out his other hand to feel around him: "Are you injured? I smell blood."
Su Jie looked down and saw a few inconspicuous blood stains on the front of his clothes. He comforted him, "Don't worry, it's not my blood."
After finishing speaking, he answered subconsciously: "I didn't kill anyone."
"It's fine." Hua Manlou loosened his frown.
Su Jie's expression became serious: "I'm fine, but you are the one to blame. Why did you get poisoned by Lin Xian'er?"
"Poison? I don't feel any discomfort." After speaking, he put his hand on his wrist, and shook his head after a while: "The pulse condition is not wrong."
"Could it be that she lied to me?"
Even though he said that, Su Jie didn't feel relieved, so he turned around and prepared to drag Lin Xian'er in again for questioning, opened the curtain and walked out, only to find that Lin Xian'er and the old woman had disappeared, only a little girl in red Standing outside with the expressionless Jing Wuming.
Seeing his little girl take the initiative to speak: "She has already left."
Su Jie looked down at her: "Then why don't you go?"
The little girl stood on her tiptoes and looked into the room, as if she wanted to see someone's figure through the gap beyond Su Jie. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her eyes were full of admiration: "If I leave, no one will read to him." .”
Su Jie's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
At this time, Hua Manlou also opened the curtain and came out. He had heard what he said just now, and said to the little girl with a gentle expression: "Miss Lingling, thank you for taking care of me for so many days. I'm leaving here soon."
Lingling's face turned pale, showing a sad look: "I already knew that you would leave one day."
Then her expression suddenly became very unwilling. She walked up to Huamanlou in two or three steps, grabbed Huamanlou's sleeve, looked up at him and said, "Can't you really marry me? I will grow up soon." When you grow up, your sweetheart may never come back again, I will like you more than her and treat you better, so will you marry me?"
Su Jie: "..."
Just when he was about to reach out his hand to feel if there was any grass growing on his head, Hua Manlou gently held his hand, then shook his head to Lingling: "He has come back."
Lingling was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to realize. While pointing at Su Jie in shock, she looked at Hua Manlou in disbelief: "Is he your sweetheart? But he is a man!"
Jing Wuming also looked at them without blinking, his eyes were so powerful that it was hard for people to ignore them.
"I like him, it has nothing to do with whether he is a man or a woman." Hua Manlou's tone was gentle and firm, which made the little girl hold back the red eyes immediately.
She glanced at Su Jie bitterly, eyes full of hostility, and then said loudly: "I will not give up, I will definitely go to you when I grow up, and I will definitely make you like me!"
Hua Manlou looked helpless, as if she was facing an ignorant child. Seeing him like this, Lingling couldn't help but turned around and ran out of the small building.
Su Jie pulled out her hand, then stretched out a finger to poke Hua Manlou's shoulder, and said with a smile: "It seems that you have had a wonderful time these few days, I thought that only Lu Xiaofeng would attract others, but I didn't expect that Playboy would also Do you want to give up too much?"
Hua Manlou smiled with helplessness and indulgence that had not dissipated: "She is just a child."
"The little girl is not very old, but she has excellent eyesight." Su Jie put down her hands, her tone full of appreciation.
Then he couldn't help sighing: "If she was born a few years earlier and met you sooner, I'm afraid I really have nothing to do with it."
Hua Manlou's heart is too soft, and she is easily moved by pure and enthusiastic things. If he hadn't disturbed the situation at the beginning, I am afraid that she would really fall into Shangguan Feiyan.And if, as he said, Lingling met Huamanlou earlier, it would be hard for Huamanlou not to be tempted by such a straightforward and passionate pursuit.
What's more rare is that such a temperamental person, once he uses affection, he will be extremely affectionate and single-minded, and will not be moved by other people's feelings again. Hua Manlou has been single until now, Su Jie thinks that the only possibility is that he is too nerdy.
It's rare to go out with Lu Xiaofeng, and the ones he meets are not serious people, basically they all share the same flirtatious taste with Lu Xiaofeng, leaving him alone, incompatible with the women who appear around Lu Xiaofeng, so that he has never been touched by a leaf. body.
Fate is really a wonderful thing. If you were dug out from the snow mountain and went through reincarnation, just to meet such a person across space, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing.
Hua Manlou laughed: "Stop joking." Then he said in the direction of Jing Wuming: "I don't know who this is?"
Jing Wuming didn't answer, just took a deep look at them, then turned and left, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Su Jie looked at the empty doorway, showing an expression of interest: "A shadow should have no feelings, and his master should be very troubled."
Hua Manlou turned his head to the side: "What did you say?"
Su Jie told him what he had seen and heard before, and finally said with a smile: "Even if an ordinary man doesn't like the woman in front of him, he doesn't need drugs to get up. Maybe it's not that he doesn't like Lin Xian'er, It's because I don't like women. As for why you do this... Even if it's just a shadow, it has a heart, and if you have a heart, you will have something you desire."
Hua Manlou: "He gave me a very strange feeling, nothingness, dead silence, and a sharp sword intent, but it is completely different from Ximen Chuixueye Gucheng."
"So Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng are human beings. He is just a shadow. A shadow is an ethereal thing with no emotional life. It is enough to follow the master, and nothing else is needed." The two walked out side by side, and just reached the door Outside, a faint fragrance came with the wind.
Hua Manlou paused slightly, and said with a smile, "The plum blossoms in the forest are blooming."
Su Jie pondered for a moment, grabbed his arm and said, "Let's go to that Mr. Mei Er. Although you said that your body is normal, I still feel uneasy. I've seen people like Lin Xian'er a lot. , They will do anything for their own pleasure."
Hua Manlou had a conniving look on his face: "Okay."
So after the two left here, they did not go back to Baihualou, but turned to the Meihua Thatched Cottage where Mr. Mei Er was.It was almost noon when they came to the door, but Mr. Mei Er was not there. Only Mr. Mei Da was instructing two boys to prune the plum branches, without even looking behind their backs.
Su Jie suddenly remembered that Mr. Mei Er in Miaolang is best at healing external and internal injuries, but when it comes to the research on poison, Mr. Mei Da is the master of it.
However, this Mr. Mei Da has the same eccentric temper as his younger brother. His only weakness is that he loves painting like his life. As long as he gives famous paintings as gifts, he will do anything.
Thinking of this, Su Jie coughed lightly, raised her voice slightly and said to Hua Manlou, "Hua Manlou, you said earlier that uncle got a piece of Gu Kaizhi's "Luo Shen Fu Picture" not long ago, is it true?"
Hua Manlou was startled for a moment, then immediately came to his senses and replied with a smile: "It is true."
Su Jie continued: "But I heard that the original "Luo Shen Fu Tu" has long been lost, and what has been handed down is only the Moben from the Song Dynasty?"
Hua Manlou slowly explained: "That's how it was originally. In fact, my father didn't really like painting and calligraphy. My third brother was really obsessed with it in the family. The Song Dynasty Moben was originally collected by my third brother. Coincidentally, I found the original work and gave it to my father as a birthday gift, but now it must be in the hands of my third brother."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure rushed to them in a hurry, and asked excitedly before he could stand still: "Is what you said true? The original "Luo Shen Fu Tu" is at your house?"
"It's absolutely true." Hua Manlou nodded gently.
Mr. Mei Da's attitude changed drastically, and he immediately greeted the boy: "Qihe, hurry up and fetch my 20-year-old bamboo leaf green."
Then he looked at Huamanlou enthusiastically, looked him up and down, stroked his palms and said: "Huamanlou, the seventh son of the Hua family, has been famous for a long time, and when I saw him today, he was really beautiful and extraordinary. Your father and brother also agree We are old acquaintances, since you are here today, let me treat you well."
Hua Manlou was caught off guard by this sudden change, saluted and said, "Don't dare to bother you sir."
Seeing that the heat was almost ready, Su Jie smiled and walked up to explain why he came: "Actually, we came to see Mr. today specially, and wanted to ask Mr. to see if Huamanlou has been poisoned."
Hearing this, Mr. Mei Da looked at Hua Manlou's face carefully, then took his hand and put two fingers on his wrist to feel his pulse. After a while, he shook his head: "The pulse is steady, soft and powerful, with an even rhythm. Nothing abnormal, not a sign of poisoning."
Su Jie couldn't help but frowned after hearing this. Could it be that Lin Xian'er was really just lying to him?But why does he always feel restless?
Before he could come up with the result, Huamanlou had already been dragged into the thatched cottage by the enthusiastic Mr. Mei Da, and he could only follow up.
Mr. Mei Da did what he said, and he took out 20-year-old Zhuyeqing to entertain them, and poured wine for them himself. After drinking a glass, he looked at Su Jie, who was not moving, and was a little puzzled and displeased: "Why don't you Drink? Is my 20-year-old Zhuyeqing not enough to drink?"
Su Jie was about to speak, but Hua Manlou who was next to him naturally took his wine glass over, and smiled apologetically at Mr. Mei Da: "Don't blame me, sir, my friend never drinks, so I will take this glass for him." Let's drink." After speaking, he raised his glass and drank it down.
Mr. Mei Da also ignored Su Jie, and only concentrated on talking to Hua Manlou. Both of them are elegant people, and they had a very happy conversation around the theme of calligraphy and painting. Su Jie didn't interrupt, just playing with his own Just a wine glass, fingertips caressing the place where Huamanlou drank just now, a little smile appeared in his eyes.
After drinking for three rounds, Mr. Mei Da suddenly opened
"Where did they go?"
The deputy gang leader smiled and shook his head: "I haven't found out later. If I didn't track it on purpose, it would be difficult to find clues once I left the city. It will take a few days to know the specific whereabouts."
"You guys did a good job." Su Jie pushed two gold tickets in front of him with her fingertips, totaling 2000 taels.
2000 taels of gold converted into silver is 2 taels, but the price of gold is even higher when it is actually converted.Fortunately, the battle at the top of the Forbidden City made him rich overnight, and he won several 10 taels of gambling money, which is still affordable.
The man was immediately overjoyed, took the golden ticket and said with a smile: "Young Master Su, you really do what you say."
However, before he was happy, the competitor came through the door without even looking at him, walked up to Su Jie, clasped his fists and said to him, "Master Su, we have found Lin Xian'er's whereabouts."
As soon as this remark came out, the face of the deputy head of the Qingsha gang immediately collapsed. Su Jie and the reporter looked at each other, and then the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "So the conditions?"
Suddenly his purpose was thwarted, the man looked at him calmly, and then said loudly: "Young master Su is really smart, don't worry, it's not a hard request, after all, we are all people who preach the rules. It's just the leader's order Well, the amount of money this time is large, so I must see is believing before I can give you the news, it would be best if I could pay [-]% of the deposit first."
When investigating the whereabouts of Lin Xianer and Hua Manlou, they also investigated Su Jie's background by the way.The result is that this person is very likely to be a member of the Demon Cult, who has committed many evils and harmed the righteous way of martial arts.Moreover, it is suspected that he has practiced evil swordsmanship, because he has become a eunuch and hates normal men, so before killing people, he must also become a eunuch. Yu Canghai, the head of the Qingcheng faction, was murdered by him, and what he did was heinous .
After getting this result, the guild leader, the two deputy guild leaders and several hall lords were stunned. They suddenly felt that they were seeking skin with a tiger, and they were using their lives to seek it.But he didn't dare to be passive and sabotage, for fear of angering this lunatic and offending the Sun Moon God Sect behind him, after all, even the head of the Qingcheng faction fell into his hands.
Then everyone started throwing blame at each other, anyway, no one wanted to be the one who stood in front of Su Jie.Until this usually unremarkable deputy hall master stepped forward, everyone was happy with the result, and everyone praised him for his courage and courage, which can be of great use.Then they gave him a beautiful woman that night, and they almost told him to leave an incense stick before letting him go.
The deputy hall master looked at Su Jie's face that could make a succulent radiate, although his expression was calm, his heart was still hanging, and he didn't fall down until he heard "yes".
He knew he was right.
His martial arts are mediocre, and he is unremarkable in the gang, but he is not surprised when he knows how to employ people and has a stable temperament.He knew his chance had come when senior executives were bucking each other.
Because Liu Zhengfeng was there on the day of the Golden Basin Handwashing Conference and watched the whole process.He has an intuitive understanding of Su Jie's martial arts and temperament, and the other party is definitely not a member of the Sun Moon God Sect, because Qu Yang doesn't know him at all.As for why such rumors spread, he didn't need to think about it to know that it must be the ghost of those famous and decent families. If they can't beat it, it is their usual tactic to pour dirty water and force the demonization.
As long as this matter is done well, he will surely stand out in the gang and be reused.
"Follow me." Su Jie led the man up to the second floor, then opened a box on the table and took out a stack of letters, after a glance, he took out one and handed it to the man.
The man who thought it was a golden ticket opened it, but was stunned on the spot. It was just an ordinary piece of paper, but some routes and terrains were drawn on it, which finally pointed to a certain place, which turned out to be a map.He asked puzzledly, "What is this?"
Su Jie replied lightly: "Gold mine."
The man was shocked: "Gold mine?!"
Su Jie nodded: "If the information you gave is true, this one will also be handed over to you." He said with two fingers and took out another letter and put it on the table.
The man's Adam's apple rolled, and he looked at the dozen or so letters in his hand with fiery eyes. Could it be that those are...
Paying attention to his gaze, Su Jie smiled slightly: "If what you find is Huamanlou, these will all be yours."
The man collected himself, moved his eyes away from the letters with difficulty, and looked at Su Jie with a forced calm look: "Mr. Su, this is different from what we agreed. You said it was for gold, not to mention digging for gold." Gold mining is a capital offense."
"Really?" Su Jie glanced at him with a half-smile, then showed a contemplative expression, and knocked on the table after a while: "It's not difficult at all. I heard that the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River is like a forest, and the rich merchants are like a cloud. There is always someone who can eat something that is not enough. Let me find someone who can eat it and sell these two blueprints for 100 million taels of silver. The two gold mines are far more than 10 taels of gold. It must not be difficult to sell , and then how about I give you another one million taels of silver?"
Of course not!Only a fool would agree to this kind of exchange. The man put away his thoughts immediately and apologized with a smile: "Although it is a bit troublesome, we can still afford it, so you don't have to worry about it, my lord."
"Can you say it?" Su Jie asked.
The man wanted to doubt the authenticity of the drawing, but his heart skipped a beat when he saw Shang Su Jie's indifferent gaze, and he felt that the other party's patience would run out if he continued to ask, which was not a good thing for him, so he quickly sent Lin Xian'er's whereabouts were revealed.
After the messenger left, Su Jie also immediately left for where Lin Xian'er was.
Night falls.
Lin Xian'er touched A Fei's sleeping face, poured out his half-drunk tea, and the gentle smile on his face was tinged with malice.Her cheeks were slightly red, her eyes were full of spring water, and there seemed to be a fire burning in her heart. Every time she set A Fei on fire, she couldn't escape it.
But no, any man in the world can do it, only Ah Fei can't.
She likes to torture him, seeing how he is in pain and has to endure it forcibly.
After a while, she stood up, opened the door as lightly and silently as a cat, and walked out, even though she knew that Ah Fei would never wake up anyway.
She walked to the door of another room and knocked twice, and a hoarse voice came from inside: "Come in."
Lin Xian'er pushed open the door with a touching and sweet smile on her face, and met a pair of cold eyes.
There was no emotion in these eyes, not even life, and they were hardly the eyes of a living person.Because of this, the people who fall into these eyes are not like living people, but stones and rotten wood.
Those strange eyes made Lin Xian'er feel cold, but her smile was still sweet, and she asked softly, "Is that Mr. Jing?"
Jing Wuming looked at her, without any waves in his eyes, this peerless beauty was like a dead thing in his eyes: "Are you Lin Xian'er?"
Lin Xian'er replied softly: "Yes."
Jing Wuming: "You asked me to meet here?"
Lin Xianer: "Yes."
"why?"
"Shangguan Gangzhu wants to experience the evil swordsmanship that was invincible in the underworld in the past. I have a way to make that person fall into the trap."
Jing Wuming was silent for a moment, then asked again: "Why did you do this?"
Lin Xian'er's eyes showed hatred and resentment: "I hate him, I want him to die."
She will never forget the days when her face was destroyed, she almost went crazy.Although it was later found out that Long Xiaoyun did it, but it is impossible for Long Xiaoyun to do it for no reason, it must be that person behind the scenes.
So she hated him more than she hated Li Xunhuan!
Jing Wuming said coldly: "Will he come?"
"He will definitely come." Lin Xianer's tone was extremely firm, and then she smiled softly: "Because his most important person is in my hands."
Jing Wuming turned his back to her without saying a word after listening, Lin Xianer looked at his back and felt hesitant.She has always believed in her own charm, but she really can't understand the man in front of her, and she is not sure.
In the end, she smiled wryly and gave up, because she felt that what she was facing was a rock, not a man: "If Mr. Jing is fine, I will leave first."
Jing Wuming walked to the table, picked up the teacup, swallowed a pill with the cold tea, and then said: "I heard that you are very good at seducing men, isn't it?"
Lin Xian'er blushed, she lowered her head shyly: "But I dare not seduce you."
Jing Wuming turned and looked at her: "Why?"
Lin Xian'er said softly, "Because you are different from those men, you..."
Before she finished speaking, a low laugh came from outside the window, and Jing Wuming's eyes sharpened: "Who?"
The closed window suddenly shattered, and a slender whip shadow flashed out of the darkness like a poisonous snake, hooked Lin Xianer's neck and dragged her to the window.Jing Wuming didn't care about Lin Xian'er who was strangled at all, and directly stabbed out the window with his sword.
This sword was as fast as lightning, extremely sharp, and its momentum was not inferior to those swordsmen Su Jie knew.
He withdrew his whip to dodge the sword, then jumped into the room, looked at Jing Wuming for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Mr. Jing, right? If you would rather take medicine and hug a woman, then I suggest you change it One, because she might get ugly later on."
☆、Chapter 53
Hearing the word "take medicine", Lin Xian'er, who was coughing while clutching her neck, looked at Jing Wuming in shock.
Jing Wuming didn't even look at her, and his expression didn't change. He looked at Su Jie coldly and asked, "Who are you?"
Su Jie also restrained her smile, and said in a cold tone, "You took Huamanlou away just to lure me here?"
Jing Wuming finally had a wave in his eyes: "You are Su Jie."
Su Jie: "Yes, I'm here, where is Huamanlou?"
Jing Wuming didn't answer, his cold gaze swept over him, and he asked blankly, "Where's your sword?"
"I don't use a sword." Su Jie frowned, and asked again: "Where is Huamanlou?"
Jing Wuming still fixed his eyes on him: "How can you practice evil sword skills without a sword?"
Su Jie: "..."
After a while, he chuckled: "I'm sorry, I didn't hear clearly, what did you say to practice just now?"
Jing Wuming: "Evil warding off swordsmanship."
Su Jie was silent for a while this time, and then moved his gaze down inch by inch, fixed on the tent that Jing Wuming forcibly set up because of the power of the medicine, then stretched out a hand to Jing Wuming, and said softly: "Is the medicine still available?" ? Give me one."
Jing Wuming looked at him expressionlessly, unmoved.
Su Jie looked back at him, and said seriously, "I think I must be older than you."
Jing Wuming: "..."
It was also after a long time before Jing Wuming said, "You haven't practiced the evil sword technique?" Now everyone in the world knows that if you want to practice the evil sword technique, you have to come from the palace. If Su Jie didn't come from the palace, naturally he didn't practice that Evil warding off swordsmanship.
Su Jie flicked the whip in his hand: "I don't even use a sword, what do you think?"
Jing Wuming stopped talking, but did not leave, standing there like a stone statue.Seeing this, Su Jie ignored him and walked straight to Lin Xian'er. Lin Xian'er was not panicked when she saw this, but instead showed him a sweet smile.
Su Jie was completely indifferent to this, and asked word by word: "Let me ask one last time, where is Huamanlou?"
Lin Xian'er's eyes fluttered, with a trace of pride and confidence, she said with a coquettish smile: "I am the only one in this world who knows where he is, if you want to know, please ask me."
Su Jie looked down at her, slowly raised the corners of his lips, and he nodded: "Okay."
As soon as the words fell, he reached out and grabbed Lin Xian'er's hair and threw her out of the way. Lin Xian'er didn't cry out in pain, but let out a groan, lay on the ground and looked at him charmingly, giggling and saying: " So you like this, why didn't you say it earlier?"
She likes to torture others and make them suffer, and at the same time she also likes pain. The rougher the man is, the more satisfied she is.
Su Jie walked over and knelt down in front of her, took out a small knife under her slightly excited gaze, and then inserted/inserted her hand backhand, the sharp blade pierced through her tender palm three inches into the ground in the blood splattered. more than enough.
Amid Lin Xianer's sharp screams, Su Jie said softly, "I beg you."
Seeing him take out another knife, Lin Xian'er got scared, turned her pale face to Jing Wuming for help, but only met his calm eyes like stagnant water.
Lin Xian'er felt a chill in her heart for a moment. No one would save her, and the only person who would protect her regardless of anything had already been knocked down by her own cup of magic/drug.
Immediately, the other hand was completely nailed to the ground, and Su Jie chuckled, "I beg you."
"I'll say! I'll say anything!" Lin Xian'er screamed and shed tears, she was really scared, he is not a man at all, he is a devil, she shouldn't provoke this devil at all!
Su Jie stopped, and Lin Xian'er's originally pleasant voice had become hoarse, and she said tremblingly, "He's in the small building behind."
Su Jie pulled out a knife when he heard the words, and looked at the blood splashed on the beautiful face, his smile became softer: "I remember the first time we met, I said you made me feel sick. But what I didn't tell you is that, besides disgusting , and I feel very happy."
He slowly wiped the blood from the blade on Lin Xian'er's clothes, and the cruelty and smile in the depths of his eyes mixed together: "Just like you feel happy when you torture others, for me, torturing you People also make me feel enjoyable, happy, and excited.”
"The first time I let you go, and the second time I held back, I just let Long Xiaoyun teach you a little lesson, but—" The smile on the corner of his mouth became more cruel, and he held the other hand The knife twirled around in Lin Xianer's hand before pulling it out forcefully: "Why did you give me a third chance?"
Obviously the pain is going crazy, but because of the fear, she can't even scream in her throat. Lin Xian'er is trembling all over, even her teeth are chattering. Again and again, he calculated the lunatic in front of him.
He was scarier than anyone she had ever seen!
Enduring the severe pain and fear, relying on a strong desire to survive, Lin Xian'er said with difficulty: "You...can't kill me, because if I die, Huamanlou will...can't live..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that the air around her became heavy, and she could hardly breathe. Because of the pain and fear, she couldn't raise her head to see Su Jie's expression, and naturally she couldn't see his darkening momentarily. The smile disappeared from the eyes and the corners of the mouth.
Lin Xian'er only heard a faint question from above her head: "Why?"
She regained a bit of confidence, because she knew very well how important Hua Manlou was to this lunatic, otherwise how could she say "I will never go back with a smell of blood"?Being so careful made her believe that she had found the man's weakness.
Facts have proved that she is right, but things are completely different from what she imagined, but now all she can grasp is this straw.
She took a breath and said slowly: "He has been poisoned, and only I know the antidote."
What answered her was silence. In this silence, her heart beat faster and faster. The unspeakable panic made her tremble even more uncontrollably, and she almost collapsed.
"Very good." A voice without any emotion came from the top of the head, and the next moment there was a sharp pain in the scalp, Su Jie had stood up and pulled her hair and dragged her out, like dragging an animal generally.
Su Jie dragged Lin Xian'er towards the outside of the house, and didn't pay him any attention when passing by Jing Wuming. From the beginning to the end, he didn't seem to care whether Jing Wuming would suddenly attack him, as if this top killer The swordsman is really just a humanoid statue.
Jing Wuming suddenly became a little curious about this person, which has never happened before, his world has always been barren, except for Shangguan Jinhong, there is nothing, and nothing is important.So this emotion seemed particularly strange, and before he could figure it out, he had already subconsciously stepped forward and followed.
Lin Xian'er was dragged all the way to the direction of the small building. Because of the heavy clothes on her body, she didn't suffer any injuries, but the fear in her heart became more and more intense.She suddenly realized that she seemed to have made another wrong decision. Since Su Jie attached so much importance to Hua Manlou, wouldn't she let her go even more knowing that she poisoned Hua Manlou?
But it was too late to regret it, and she could only hope that Su Jie would cast a trap and let her go for the cure.Even if it is only temporarily, as long as she is given a little time, she will leave here immediately, and truly "disappear" in this world from then on.
Because what she used was not poison at all, but Miao Jiang's Gu, and she didn't have the so-called antidote in her hand, only a pill that could temporarily suppress the Gu insect.
Su Jie didn't let go of him when she reached the stairs of the small building, she still dragged her hair and walked up. Lin Xian'er bit her lower lip tightly and dared not make a sound.Even if the bones in her whole body were about to fall apart, and her scalp hurt like it was about to be torn off, she didn't dare to make a sound, because she was afraid that if she made a sound, the other party's attention would be drawn to herself again.
Su Jie stopped outside the door, raised her hand and knocked on the door, and a crisp girl's voice came from the door: "Who is it?"
Su Jie put down her hand, then kicked open the door silently and walked in. The grandparents and grandchildren who were in the room with terrified faces immediately froze when they saw Lin Xian'er who was dragged in by him in such a mess.
Su Jie only glanced at them, then looked away indifferently, then landed on Lin Xian'er, and asked lightly, "Do you still want me to beg you?"
Compared with just now, his attitude at this moment is simply peaceful, but Lin Xian'er is even more frightened. The other party seems to have already figured out how to deal with her, so he doesn't continue to waste his emotions on her.
Like, would you waste your affection on insignificant dead people?
This thought made Lin Xian'er fall into an ice cave, but she dared not answer his question: "In the bedroom."
There is a secret passage under the bed board in the bedroom, which is usually used to secretly meet various men behind Ah Fei's back, so she puts Huamanlou here, and once she finds something wrong, the grandpa and grandson will immediately take Huamanlou out of the room. The secret passage left, and no one could find out immediately.
Su Jie finally let go of Lin Xian'er. He took two steps toward the bedroom, then stopped again, raised his hand to take off the blood-stained coat, and then washed his hands carefully with the water from the teapot on the table. The blood spattered on his face, and finally wiped his hands clean before walking over again.
He lifted the covering curtain, and finally saw the person who made him miss him.
Hua Manlou was sitting at the table with an open book in his hand. His eyebrows and eyes were the same as before, with deep gentleness. He was a gentleman, his heart was like the bright moon, and his people were like the bright moon.
The remaining hostility in her heart disappeared instantly, and Su Jie felt that her heart had never been so soft as it was at this moment.
Hua Manlou's voice was as gentle as his expression: "You are here."
"Yes." Su Jie slowly walked in front of him. The closer he got, the faster the barriers built in his heart would collapse, but this time he didn't try to struggle again.
"I'm late."
Hua Manlou smiled when he heard the words: "I thought you would never come to see me again."
Su Jie didn't feel the slightest bit of embarrassment, and smiled: "I thought so too, but later I found out that I was wrong. It is easy to control one's desire, but it is very difficult to control one's heart." .Because desires can be replaced and transferred with stronger desires, but there is only one heart. If it is not obedient, not only cannot it be replaced, even resistance and escape are futile."
"Besides, you gave me this, do you really think I won't come back?" Su Jie put the jade pendant in his hand, with a trace of helplessness in his tone.
Holding the jade pendant, Hua Manlou smiled deeper: "My intentions are not necessarily for you to accept."
However, the more he said that, the more Su Jie felt that he was being eaten to death by the other party. What should the lamp do for moths?It's very simple, it only needs to remove the outer cover, and then continue to emit bright light and gentle warmth. If it can't hit the outer cover, the moths can only pounce into its arms.
"It's very difficult to take back what was given to me." He stretched out his hand to cover the jade pendant, and then held the slender hand together: "This is mine now."
Hua Manlou said nothing, but smiled more gently, and then lightly held the hand in the palm of his hand.
☆、Chapter 54
The warmth came continuously from the clasped palms, and the tenderness made Su Jie greedy and reluctant to let go.
It turns out that the feeling of liking someone is not distorted, ferocious, or hysterical.It's not like the one he drank in the city of drunkenness and dreams, crazy enough to burn his soul, so obsessed that he can't think about anything except ta every minute and every second.I can't wait to hold my whole body and mind and all my dignity at his feet, even if I am crushed by her foot, as long as I can stop my eyes for a moment, I will feel extremely happy and satisfied.
It wasn't until now that he understood that liking someone is warm, sweet, long-lasting pleasure and unstoppable joy.
"You..." They said at the same time, and then they both stopped, and after a short silence, they couldn't help laughing together again.
Hua Manlou smiled: "You talk first."
"Okay." Su Jie still held his hand and asked, "Why are you here? I have been to Baihualou and found that you left voluntarily."
Hua Manlou nodded: "That's right, I did leave with that person voluntarily, because he said you were here and someone wanted your life."
This answer was completely beyond Su Jie's expectations, and he was even a little dumbfounded: "You believe what he said? You have also seen me fighting swords with Master Ximen, how could I fall into someone else's hands so easily? "
"Of course I don't believe it." Hua Manlou squeezed his hand slightly, and said in a low voice, "But what if?"
Su Jie was startled, and then a softer smile appeared in his eyes: "Although there is no chance, if it were you, I would make the same choice."
"Second thing."
He slowly leaned close to Huamanlou's ear, and said softly, "Huamanlou, I miss you very much."
Feeling that the person in front of her was out of breath for a moment, Su Jie gave a light smile, then turned her head slightly, and her thin lips with a hint of coolness fell apart at the touch of Hua Manlou's face. .
Hua Manlou's expression was blank for a moment, then he frowned slightly, and stretched out his other hand to feel around him: "Are you injured? I smell blood."
Su Jie looked down and saw a few inconspicuous blood stains on the front of his clothes. He comforted him, "Don't worry, it's not my blood."
After finishing speaking, he answered subconsciously: "I didn't kill anyone."
"It's fine." Hua Manlou loosened his frown.
Su Jie's expression became serious: "I'm fine, but you are the one to blame. Why did you get poisoned by Lin Xian'er?"
"Poison? I don't feel any discomfort." After speaking, he put his hand on his wrist, and shook his head after a while: "The pulse condition is not wrong."
"Could it be that she lied to me?"
Even though he said that, Su Jie didn't feel relieved, so he turned around and prepared to drag Lin Xian'er in again for questioning, opened the curtain and walked out, only to find that Lin Xian'er and the old woman had disappeared, only a little girl in red Standing outside with the expressionless Jing Wuming.
Seeing his little girl take the initiative to speak: "She has already left."
Su Jie looked down at her: "Then why don't you go?"
The little girl stood on her tiptoes and looked into the room, as if she wanted to see someone's figure through the gap beyond Su Jie. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her eyes were full of admiration: "If I leave, no one will read to him." .”
Su Jie's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
At this time, Hua Manlou also opened the curtain and came out. He had heard what he said just now, and said to the little girl with a gentle expression: "Miss Lingling, thank you for taking care of me for so many days. I'm leaving here soon."
Lingling's face turned pale, showing a sad look: "I already knew that you would leave one day."
Then her expression suddenly became very unwilling. She walked up to Huamanlou in two or three steps, grabbed Huamanlou's sleeve, looked up at him and said, "Can't you really marry me? I will grow up soon." When you grow up, your sweetheart may never come back again, I will like you more than her and treat you better, so will you marry me?"
Su Jie: "..."
Just when he was about to reach out his hand to feel if there was any grass growing on his head, Hua Manlou gently held his hand, then shook his head to Lingling: "He has come back."
Lingling was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to realize. While pointing at Su Jie in shock, she looked at Hua Manlou in disbelief: "Is he your sweetheart? But he is a man!"
Jing Wuming also looked at them without blinking, his eyes were so powerful that it was hard for people to ignore them.
"I like him, it has nothing to do with whether he is a man or a woman." Hua Manlou's tone was gentle and firm, which made the little girl hold back the red eyes immediately.
She glanced at Su Jie bitterly, eyes full of hostility, and then said loudly: "I will not give up, I will definitely go to you when I grow up, and I will definitely make you like me!"
Hua Manlou looked helpless, as if she was facing an ignorant child. Seeing him like this, Lingling couldn't help but turned around and ran out of the small building.
Su Jie pulled out her hand, then stretched out a finger to poke Hua Manlou's shoulder, and said with a smile: "It seems that you have had a wonderful time these few days, I thought that only Lu Xiaofeng would attract others, but I didn't expect that Playboy would also Do you want to give up too much?"
Hua Manlou smiled with helplessness and indulgence that had not dissipated: "She is just a child."
"The little girl is not very old, but she has excellent eyesight." Su Jie put down her hands, her tone full of appreciation.
Then he couldn't help sighing: "If she was born a few years earlier and met you sooner, I'm afraid I really have nothing to do with it."
Hua Manlou's heart is too soft, and she is easily moved by pure and enthusiastic things. If he hadn't disturbed the situation at the beginning, I am afraid that she would really fall into Shangguan Feiyan.And if, as he said, Lingling met Huamanlou earlier, it would be hard for Huamanlou not to be tempted by such a straightforward and passionate pursuit.
What's more rare is that such a temperamental person, once he uses affection, he will be extremely affectionate and single-minded, and will not be moved by other people's feelings again. Hua Manlou has been single until now, Su Jie thinks that the only possibility is that he is too nerdy.
It's rare to go out with Lu Xiaofeng, and the ones he meets are not serious people, basically they all share the same flirtatious taste with Lu Xiaofeng, leaving him alone, incompatible with the women who appear around Lu Xiaofeng, so that he has never been touched by a leaf. body.
Fate is really a wonderful thing. If you were dug out from the snow mountain and went through reincarnation, just to meet such a person across space, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing.
Hua Manlou laughed: "Stop joking." Then he said in the direction of Jing Wuming: "I don't know who this is?"
Jing Wuming didn't answer, just took a deep look at them, then turned and left, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Su Jie looked at the empty doorway, showing an expression of interest: "A shadow should have no feelings, and his master should be very troubled."
Hua Manlou turned his head to the side: "What did you say?"
Su Jie told him what he had seen and heard before, and finally said with a smile: "Even if an ordinary man doesn't like the woman in front of him, he doesn't need drugs to get up. Maybe it's not that he doesn't like Lin Xian'er, It's because I don't like women. As for why you do this... Even if it's just a shadow, it has a heart, and if you have a heart, you will have something you desire."
Hua Manlou: "He gave me a very strange feeling, nothingness, dead silence, and a sharp sword intent, but it is completely different from Ximen Chuixueye Gucheng."
"So Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng are human beings. He is just a shadow. A shadow is an ethereal thing with no emotional life. It is enough to follow the master, and nothing else is needed." The two walked out side by side, and just reached the door Outside, a faint fragrance came with the wind.
Hua Manlou paused slightly, and said with a smile, "The plum blossoms in the forest are blooming."
Su Jie pondered for a moment, grabbed his arm and said, "Let's go to that Mr. Mei Er. Although you said that your body is normal, I still feel uneasy. I've seen people like Lin Xian'er a lot. , They will do anything for their own pleasure."
Hua Manlou had a conniving look on his face: "Okay."
So after the two left here, they did not go back to Baihualou, but turned to the Meihua Thatched Cottage where Mr. Mei Er was.It was almost noon when they came to the door, but Mr. Mei Er was not there. Only Mr. Mei Da was instructing two boys to prune the plum branches, without even looking behind their backs.
Su Jie suddenly remembered that Mr. Mei Er in Miaolang is best at healing external and internal injuries, but when it comes to the research on poison, Mr. Mei Da is the master of it.
However, this Mr. Mei Da has the same eccentric temper as his younger brother. His only weakness is that he loves painting like his life. As long as he gives famous paintings as gifts, he will do anything.
Thinking of this, Su Jie coughed lightly, raised her voice slightly and said to Hua Manlou, "Hua Manlou, you said earlier that uncle got a piece of Gu Kaizhi's "Luo Shen Fu Picture" not long ago, is it true?"
Hua Manlou was startled for a moment, then immediately came to his senses and replied with a smile: "It is true."
Su Jie continued: "But I heard that the original "Luo Shen Fu Tu" has long been lost, and what has been handed down is only the Moben from the Song Dynasty?"
Hua Manlou slowly explained: "That's how it was originally. In fact, my father didn't really like painting and calligraphy. My third brother was really obsessed with it in the family. The Song Dynasty Moben was originally collected by my third brother. Coincidentally, I found the original work and gave it to my father as a birthday gift, but now it must be in the hands of my third brother."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure rushed to them in a hurry, and asked excitedly before he could stand still: "Is what you said true? The original "Luo Shen Fu Tu" is at your house?"
"It's absolutely true." Hua Manlou nodded gently.
Mr. Mei Da's attitude changed drastically, and he immediately greeted the boy: "Qihe, hurry up and fetch my 20-year-old bamboo leaf green."
Then he looked at Huamanlou enthusiastically, looked him up and down, stroked his palms and said: "Huamanlou, the seventh son of the Hua family, has been famous for a long time, and when I saw him today, he was really beautiful and extraordinary. Your father and brother also agree We are old acquaintances, since you are here today, let me treat you well."
Hua Manlou was caught off guard by this sudden change, saluted and said, "Don't dare to bother you sir."
Seeing that the heat was almost ready, Su Jie smiled and walked up to explain why he came: "Actually, we came to see Mr. today specially, and wanted to ask Mr. to see if Huamanlou has been poisoned."
Hearing this, Mr. Mei Da looked at Hua Manlou's face carefully, then took his hand and put two fingers on his wrist to feel his pulse. After a while, he shook his head: "The pulse is steady, soft and powerful, with an even rhythm. Nothing abnormal, not a sign of poisoning."
Su Jie couldn't help but frowned after hearing this. Could it be that Lin Xian'er was really just lying to him?But why does he always feel restless?
Before he could come up with the result, Huamanlou had already been dragged into the thatched cottage by the enthusiastic Mr. Mei Da, and he could only follow up.
Mr. Mei Da did what he said, and he took out 20-year-old Zhuyeqing to entertain them, and poured wine for them himself. After drinking a glass, he looked at Su Jie, who was not moving, and was a little puzzled and displeased: "Why don't you Drink? Is my 20-year-old Zhuyeqing not enough to drink?"
Su Jie was about to speak, but Hua Manlou who was next to him naturally took his wine glass over, and smiled apologetically at Mr. Mei Da: "Don't blame me, sir, my friend never drinks, so I will take this glass for him." Let's drink." After speaking, he raised his glass and drank it down.
Mr. Mei Da also ignored Su Jie, and only concentrated on talking to Hua Manlou. Both of them are elegant people, and they had a very happy conversation around the theme of calligraphy and painting. Su Jie didn't interrupt, just playing with his own Just a wine glass, fingertips caressing the place where Huamanlou drank just now, a little smile appeared in his eyes.
After drinking for three rounds, Mr. Mei Da suddenly opened
