Yin and Yang evil

【44】

The Palace of Ghosts is full of women, so it is inconvenient for men to stay overnight, Bai Feifei did not lie about this.But if a generation of heroes is really required to sleep in the valley or deal with them in the main hall for one night, it seems that it is against the way of hospitality. Bai Feifei thought about it and chose a good place for him-the library in the valley was empty at night, and there was a small room inside. The couch is just right for Shen Lang to rest.

Bai Feifei ordered someone to fetch some living utensils and put them in the room, then Shi Shiran left and went back to the room.

After she left, Shen Lang extinguished the candle and lay down, thinking that she was under the same roof, he felt a little at ease.

This night he slept with his sword on his pillow, but luckily nothing happened. In the morning after Shen Lang got up from the bed and took a shower, the first thing he did was to find Bai Feifei.

Fang was about to go out when a maid came to take him to dinner.

Shen Lang was ready at the table, but Bai Feifei came and asked, "Isn't your palace master eating here?"

The palace lady who brought him smiled and replied: "The palace master went out early this morning, and before he left, he told his subordinates to inform Shen Daxia."

"Where did she go?"

"This... the Palace Master did not tell his subordinates, but the Palace Master left the valley alone and did not ride a horse, so it is estimated that he will not go too far."

Shen Lang thanked the maid, and the three of them finished their breakfast and went out of the valley.Although Bai Feifei didn't say it clearly, he could guess where she was going.

Sure enough, when he arrived somewhere outside the ghost palace, Shen Lang saw Bai Feifei holding a small piece of metal thoughtfully.The metal seemed to be a part of a component, it fell here at some point and was picked up by Bai Feifei.

Bai Feifei also saw him: "You were quick to find him."

Shen Lang smiled and said: "Last night, we talked about the most easily breached gap from outside the Ghost Valley. I know you will definitely come here again this morning to have a look. I didn't expect you to move so fast. When I went to find you, the maid said that you had already out."

Bai Feifei's face was solemn, and he hesitated for a moment before expressing his guess: "Shen Lang, I seem to know who the man in black is."

"Remember the two brothers you captured? They confessed this morning, saying that they had seen the person who hired them." Bai Feifei said.

"Is this true? I think the two brothers are slick. Could there be some fraud? The employer can send someone to contact him. Could it be that he will go to them in person at the risk of his identity being exposed?"

Bai Feifei smiled and said nothing, Shen Lang knew that she must have used some tricks to make them have to tell the truth.Instinct told him that it would be better not to ask her what method she used at this time.

Bai Feifei didn't continue the topic just now, but instead asked Shen Lang: "I have a question, I don't know if you have thought about it."

Shen Lang signaled that he was listening attentively.

"Why did Happy King marry Bai Jing back then? He obviously has no feelings for her."

Shen Lang recalled the secrets of the Jianghu back then, and replied: "Isn't it for the purpose of using treasures as bait with Bai Jing to design to deceive the secret books of martial arts sects?"

Bai Feifei sneered and said, "Just for this, it seems that I won't spend half of my life, and even found another Wang Yunmeng just to avoid her."

"But Bai Jing is a strong person. If she doesn't want Happy King to agree to marry her, she is willing to cooperate. With Happy King's character, he probably won't refuse this good opportunity."

"You are right, but you overlooked one point," Bai Feifei said, "Chai Yuguan and Bai Jing once had a child, but Chai Yuguan killed it with a bowl of abortion pills. He and Wang Yunmeng also had a child, like you As you can see, Wang Lianhua is alive and well."

Shen Lang understood the meaning of Bai Feifei's words. Chai Yuguan had no feelings for Bai Jing and Wang Yunmeng, so why did he favor one and kill his unborn child.Could it be that Happy King knew that Bai Jing was different from ordinary people, so he couldn't give him a normal baby?

Shen Lang was not sure for a while, he hesitated: "You mean, the Happy King knows the relationship between Bai Jing and the former Heart Eater Sect, and wants to profit from it. He doesn't want his first child to be a child like Bai Jing. Crazy, so a bowl of abortion pills caused Bai Jing to hunt him down for years?"

Bai Feifei nodded: "That's right. I even wonder if there is really a huge amount of treasure in the Ghost Palace, which made the Happy King, who was not yet famous at that time, jealous, and even married Bai Jing to cheat the treasure."

Bai Jing is the youngest of the three girls adopted by Nie Xunliu. She was almost killed by her own mother when she was born. If Nie Xunliu loves her more, it is possible to leave the most family wealth to her.

Shen Lang asked: "Then did he succeed?"

Bai Feifei couldn't explain this question clearly either, so he thought for a while and said, "I don't think so. Killing the unformed child may also be due to anger from embarrassment."

Bai Feifei had another reason in mind.Rongchun knew that Bai Jing was dead, and maybe even knew that she was not Bai Jing's own daughter. At first, he still had the intention of recruiting Ghost Palace into his gang, but later he lost his fear and wanted to kill her in Qingdiegu.Could it be that she has figured out the mystery of the treasure and no longer needs the assistance of the Ghost Palace?

Shen Lang suddenly said: "Feifei, you seem to firmly believe that there is a large amount of unknown treasures in the Ghost Palace. Why is that? You are not a random person."

Bai Feifei didn't want to hide it from him: "When I was very young, I once stumbled into a place in the valley by mistake, and there were some things in it that I had never seen before. If not for too many things happening recently, I probably I will never recall this memory at all.”

She still couldn't remember how she got into that place and how she got out. She was afraid of Bai Jing's punishment, and she never mentioned this experience with Bai Jing. She was too young at that time, and gradually forgot it.

"You mean, what happened in the Ghost Palace is that someone is coveting the treasure of the Ghost Palace?"

Bai Feifei nodded. The true face of the Ghost Palace has only gradually surfaced in the past few months, and there is nothing worth using for others. Apart from this, she can't think of the other party's purpose for doing so.

Shen Lang smiled wryly and said, "Feifei, have you already thought about the treasure?"

Bai Feifei said with a half-smile, "Do you think I'm a hero who punishes rape and eradicates evil just like you? In the case of Mizang Villa, I just need to be wise and protect myself. Why do I have to go to Qingdie Valley to join in the fun?"

"You want to find out the secrets about the treasure?"

"Why, I'm digging treasures on my own land, does Shen Daxia have any objections?"

Shen Lang smiled helplessly: "Don't dare, I'll listen to you even if it's not agreed."

Only then was Bai Feifei satisfied, seeing that it was still early, he said to Shen Lang: "Since you obey me, why don't you follow me to a place now?"

***

Where they went was a dead city.A few months ago, there were singing and singing every night here, and the lights were bright, but now most of the families have moved away to seek new shelters, and a few families who have relocated or are unable to re-purchase real estate and land are still here.

This was the happy city that used to be, but now it has become a half-empty city. The loss of the owner has made the city residents at a loss what to do.

Bai Feifei led the horse and stood at the gate of the city, and said bluntly to Shen Lang beside him: "My only enemy is Happy King, but to be honest, seeing this city disappear, I feel happy in my heart."

Shen Lang still remembered the bustle of the city, and sighed: "The towns in the rivers and lakes are difficult to survive for a long time. Chai Yuguan may keep them safe for more than ten years, but no one can guarantee that the Happy King will always be the overlord of the rivers and lakes. The more powerful The forces will swallow it up sooner or later." What's more, there are imperial courts outside the rivers and lakes, and it is still unknown whether they will always tolerate the existence of such a city.

Maybe it was because of the feeling in his heart when he revisited the old place, but Shen Lang still uttered the question in his heart: "Feifei, I have been thinking, since Bai Jing is not your biological mother, why do you have to obey her orders and kill her even if you don't care about your life?" Lose the Jolly King?"

Bai Feifei replied flatly: "It's very simple. She beat me before. If I don't listen to her before I gather the strength to fight back, my life will not be easy."

"that's it?"

Bai Feifei frowned: "If you don't believe me, why ask me?"

Shen Lang shook his head and smiled, and said seriously: "I believe everything you say."

Bai Feifei was inexplicably agitated, "Did you forget why we came here?"

They walked into the city, and the life in the city looked out carefully and vigilantly from the window, but Bai Feifei didn't care, got on the horse and went straight to the direction of Shenxianju.

Shen Lang got on his horse and followed, and asked as he walked, "The man in black who assassinated you has something to do with Happy City?"

"It's Shan Zuo Tianyin, the envoy of sex." Bai Feifei glanced at him, "Do you still need to ask me if you want something yourself?"

Shen Lang just wanted to chat with her a few words, but he had already guessed the reason when Bai Feifei proposed to go to Happy City.

For a moment, he also thought about the possibility that the assassin was Song Li, after all, he had a close relationship with Happy King.But after hearing the confessions of the two grave robber brothers, there is no doubt.

The tomb thief brothers said that their employer was a master of martial arts, and that revealing his information would bring death. They met with their employer in the dark and did not light torches, only relying on the stars and the moon for illumination.They have a secret that has never been taught to outsiders-the younger brother "Marshal Sha" can also see things at night, and he can tell that his employer is taller than a woman.But the voice they heard was much thinner than the man's, so they couldn't even tell whether it was a man or a woman.

Among the people they knew who met this condition, the only person they knew was the former envoy of the Happy Throne, Yamasa Amane.

Bai Feifei said: "I was also puzzled. His martial arts seems to have improved a lot. It's obviously not the same way as in the previous fight, so I didn't recognize him yesterday."

Shen Lang thought of Happy King, a loyal subordinate, and sighed: "He wants to avenge Happy City, but maybe there is no one available, so he is forced to cooperate with others, and he has to go out on his own even to find those two brothers."

"It sounds like you sympathize with him? Don't forget that if it's true, you and I guess that you are also one of the targets of his revenge."

"I'm not sympathizing with him, I'm just feeling that even someone like Chai Yuguan would be devoted to him."

"That's so strange, do you think there is no one in Ghost Palace who is devoted to Bai Jing?" Bai Feifei smiled, and said, "They don't know how happy they are to see 'Bai Jing' come back."
