[System + Lu Xiaofeng] Meow's repayment

Huamanlou and Su Mier lingered in the West Garden for a long time, but they didn't find the woman wearing the red shoes with owls embroidered on them even in the middle of the moon.

Seeing that the people in the yard had almost left, Su Mier also lifted the dark dust and appeared beside Hua Manlou.

"No one was found." Su Mier scratched his hair in distress, and looked at Hua Manlou with tangled eyes, "What should we do now?"

Huamanlou is also very difficult.

Although it is not easy to explain just going back like this, but this night, there are at least a hundred women who passed by here. Even if Su Mier stared at him well, he might miss one or two, and maybe Gongsun Lan tonight He didn't appear in this place at all, and if he stayed any longer, there might not be any results.

"Otherwise, let's go back first." Hua Manlou said after a moment of hesitation.

"That's good." He looked around again unwillingly, but still didn't find any women around, so Su Mier had no choice but to agree to Hua Manlou's proposal.

Just when they were about to walk out of the gate, Su Mier suddenly heard a hoarse voice calling: "Stir-fried chestnuts with sugar! Stir-fried chestnuts with sugar that just hit the market, fragrant and hot stir-fried chestnuts with sugar!"

He followed the sound and saw a very old woman walking out from under the shadow of a tree not far away.

It was an old man who looked very poor, wrinkled, hunchbacked, wearing patched cloth clothes, and she was carrying a large basket in her hand.

Hua Manlou also heard the old lady's cries, and knowing that Su Mier always liked to eat these things, he smiled and said to Su Mier, "Let's go buy some."

"Okay." Su Mier nodded repeatedly.

Not to mention that after tossing and tossing for so long, he was already a little hungry, just to say that the old woman is dying, and she still comes out to sell her sugar-fried chestnuts for a living. He himself will not feel comfortable.

The old woman's chestnuts were fried very well, and when the cotton cloth covering the basket was lifted, there was a burst of sweet fragrance, and the price was affordable, Huamanlou and they bought a large bag for only [-] copper coins.

"Come and taste one, it smells delicious." Hua Manlou smiled and peeled two chestnuts, and handed one to Su Mier's mouth, while the other planned to taste it himself.

Su Mier opened his mouth to hold it in his mouth, but when he was about to eat it, he broke out in a cold sweat because of the inadvertent sweep of his eyes, and even the chestnut held between his lips fell to the ground.

The old woman who was staggering away, wasn't it a pair of red shoes that were exposed under the blue sarong.

Although the pattern embroidered on the shoes cannot be seen from the back, how could an old woman selling sugar-fried chestnuts wear a pair of bright red shoes made of silk and satin?

"Hua Manlou!" Su Mier turned around abruptly and knocked out the chestnuts in Hua Manlou's hands.

Seeing those chestnuts rolling to the ground, he asked nervously and anxiously, "Hua Manlou, have you eaten these chestnuts?"

"No." Hua Manlou was stunned for a moment, "What happened?"

Hearing Hua Manlou say "no", Su Mier breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart that was about to escape from his throat slowly fell back to its original position, "It's fine if you don't eat, it's fine if you don't eat."

There was a reassuring smile on his face, but the two knives were already in his hands, and the flickering sword was pointed at the old woman not far away.

And the old woman turned around when she heard the sound of chestnuts falling.

Her hunched body slowly straightened up, her eyes looked at the chestnuts on the ground, but she burst into laughter.

"Wouldn't it be a pity to throw chestnuts with sugar that can poison thirty people to death?" Her voice was no longer hoarse and rough, and it became more beautiful than a silver bell.

Accompanied by her clear and melodious laughter, a pair of daggers with colored silk tied to the hilts also appeared in her hands.

Looking at the pair of short swords and the woman with an old face who kept smiling coquettishly, Su Mier pursed her thin lips tightly, and her strange eyes, which always had a warm and soft smile, exuded a gleam more than a blade. A sharper cold light.

He was already very annoyed with Gongsun Lan, but now this woman almost made Hua Manlou eat poisonous fried chestnuts...

Su Mier, who was touched by Ni Lin, was successfully irritated.

Gongsun Lan's sword is very fast.

As the sword edge flickered, the tip of the sword was already close to Su Mier's throat.

She has always been very confident in her swordsmanship, and she thinks that she is no worse than Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng, and with her full strength, no one in the world can avoid it.

Sure enough, the man from the Western Regions on the opposite side didn't seem to react, and didn't even move, so the next scene should be that his sword pierced the opposite person's throat, just like countless times in the past.

The number of people she has killed is also countless, but whenever she sees the scene of blood splattered, she still laughs out loud.

But soon, Gongsun Lan couldn't laugh anymore.

The man from the Western Regions did not move, but he disappeared in front of his eyes, without any sign, just disappeared without a trace.

Even Gongsun Lan, who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, was shocked by such an unbelievable situation that she had never seen before, but she reacted very quickly. Relying on the flexibility of the dagger, she swung the tip of the sword and pointed at it. He stabbed in the direction of Blossoming Manlou.

Gongsun Lan never thought of killing Huamanlou.

It doesn't matter if Huamanlou died because of the sugar-fried chestnuts before. After all, no one knows that she is the one who sold the sugar-fried chestnuts.

She is very smart, and naturally knows that the Jiangnan Hua family is not easy to provoke, and it is not worthwhile for Gongsun Lan to make such a big enmity for herself.

And what she is doing now is just to get away.

However, Gongsun Lan never expected that the dagger in his hand would be snatched away just before he changed direction and before he could make a move.

How can this be? !

As the successor of Gongsun Jianwu, as a swordsman, it is a great shame and humiliation for her to be snatched from the sword in her hand.

Dispersing the dark dust and disarming in fear of the dark punishment, this is a common method used by Mingjiao, but even for those who have a certain understanding of these people in the Tang Dynasty, it is not so easy to deal with, and the opponent is completely ignorant of this It is surprisingly easy to use in this case.

Gongsun Lan's sword just now was enough for Su Mier to see her level.

Although the weapon is also a pair of swords, I can vaguely see a bit of a sword dance, but compared to the girl from Qixiufang I met before, it is still a little bit worse.

However, if he fought Gongsun Lan in an open and honest manner, although he would not be defeated, it would definitely take a long time.

Even though she lost the dagger in her hand, Gongsun Lan still retained a bit of reason. She clearly knew that she would not get any benefits today.

Glaring fiercely at the man from the Western Regions who appeared obliquely in front of her, she jumped up and backed away like flying.

This speed of lightness kung fu is terrifyingly fast for ordinary Jianghu people, but Mingjiao's lightness kung fu is undoubtedly faster. If Su Mier wants to catch up with her, it will only take a moment.

The golden chain flew out of Su Mier's sleeve, and under Gongsun Lan's shocked and unbelievable gaze, it bound her tightly.

"Okay." Knocking Gongsun Lan unconscious with the back of the knife, Su Mier sheathed the knife, clapped his hands and rubbed against Hua Manlou.

Hua Manlou raised his head politely, straightened his slightly messy hair from the fight, and asked with concern, "Is there any injury?"

He didn't ask about the smell of blood, but just to be on the safe side, he still had to ask.

"I'm fine, if you don't believe me, you've checked and checked." Knowing that Hua Manlou cared about him, he naturally wanted to reassure Hua Manlou, but as soon as the words were out of his mouth, Su Mier realized that he seemed to have said something terrible.

Seeing Hua Manlou's smile deepening, Su Mier blushed, turned his head away and changed the subject, "What should I do with this Gongsun Lan?"

This is indeed a problem.

Of course Gongsun Lan wanted to take it back, but the key was how to bring it back.

Is it possible that Huamanlou or Su Mier should take her back?

Neither Huamanlou nor Su Mier is willing to let the other party get too close to Gongsun Lan, but...

Thinking of Su Mier's suggestion of "dragging Gongsun Lan back with a chain", the corners of Hua Manlou's slightly curved mouth couldn't help twitching.

When they finally brought Gongsun Lan back to the Snake King's residence in a way that both parties were satisfied with, Lu Xiaofeng was talking to Jin Jiuling who was tied up angrily.

And Jin Jiuling was silent at first, but when he saw Gongsun Lan who was brought back, he smiled, "It seems that I have completely lost this time."

"So why on earth do you have to do such a thing?" Lu Xiaofeng's voice was full of anger, "Could it be because of money?"

"To lose is to lose, and the reason is not important anymore." Jin Jiuling still smiled, but his eyes gradually became loose, and a trace of blood slowly left from the corner of his mouth.

"You!" Lu Xiaofeng was taken aback.

But it could be seen from Jin Jiuling's expression that it was impossible for him to survive.

"One wrong step, one wrong step, and in the end, there is no turning back..." Jin Jiuling's voice became more and more erratic, and finally sank slowly until it disappeared.

Both Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou's expressions were not very good.

Jin Jiuling used to be their friend, even if he did those outrageous things, it was inevitable that he would die in front of them like this.

"The holy fire is shining, the holy light is shining...the wonderful sound leads the way, and the immeasurable pure land." After acquaintance, Su Mier closed his eyes, and silently recited a section of "Great Light Record" for Jin Jiuling, "I hope that he can be a ghost in the next life." Good guy."

"I hope so." Hua Manlou took a step forward, hugged Su Mier's shoulders, and said with a smile, "It's time for us to go home."

"Okay, let's go home."
