Lianhua Manlou

There was a chill on his neck, and he put a long sword on it, Ximen Chuuxue stared at him with burning eyes, Xiao Bo's lips curled up coldly, and Xiao Han called out more and more with a bit of sarcasm: "Lu Xiaofeng."

Lu Xiaofeng cautiously stretched out two fingers to rest on the edge of the sword, and said with a embarrassed dry smile: "Hey, swords have no eyes, please be merciful, Master Ximen!"

"What if I don't want to show mercy?" Ximen Chuixue squinted his eyes, and said with a sneer, "Everyone says that the Phoenix is ​​a phoenix, but I would like to see if you, Lu Xiaofeng, also have nine lives, and you can bring good luck in the event of death, and turn bad luck into good luck."

Lu Xiaofeng looked at him, suddenly smiled, with a smug expression on his face, and salivated and asked: "Ximen

Fubuki, are you worried about me?Do you think I'm going to die? "

Ximen Chuuxue sneered and said, "Why should I worry about you? I can afford a thin coffin."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lu Xiaofeng responded with a grin, raised his feeble hand to touch his precious head, and sighed: "Then you probably have to wait for decades, I haven't enjoyed enough of the wealth and romance in this world. I can't bear to die early."

Ximen Chuuxue snorted coldly, sheathed his sword, "Where's Huamanlou?"

Lu Xiaofeng was surprised: "How do you know he's here too?"

Ximen Chuuxue didn't say a word, no one could force him to speak about the things Ximen Chuuxue didn't want to say, not even Lu Xiaofeng.

Looking at each other for a long time, Lu Xiaofeng was the first to be defeated, he shrugged and said, "Well, Hua Manlou is upstairs, he also drank beef soup,

At this time, he was probably sleeping soundly in bed. "

Ximen Chuuxue's expression moved slightly, and he suddenly sighed, "You probably don't know what happened outside, otherwise you wouldn't be in the mood to drink beef soup."

Lu Xiaofeng's complexion changed, and the feeling of uneasiness that surfaced grew stronger.

Ximen Chuuxue said slowly: "Sheng Jia passed away, King Dingbei succeeded to the throne, and the princes and kings raised their troops to rebel and hit the imperial capital."

"What, what?!" Lu Xiaofeng's body trembled, he almost jumped up, his eyes widened in disbelief, his legs went limp, and he fell to the ground in a daze.Fortunately, Ximen Chuixue had quick eyes and quick hands, and grabbed his shoulders first, and placed him on the soft chair made of green wings.never

In just over half a month, it seemed that the whole world was about to change. Even though he was far away on an isolated island, he could still imagine the situation where the Central Plains was raging with war.

Lu Xiaofeng murmured: "How could this be..."

Ximen Chuuxue's expression was also very serious: "King Dingbei's succession to the throne is not justified. Now that the court is retreating steadily, most other princes and kings are watching the fire from the other side, wanting to reap the benefits of the fisherman. There are still fights, it depends on who pulls out the big flag first. But it is a happy event for you, and the Taiping King may not have the time to pursue your small money."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly: "I would rather not have this kind of blessing..."

Ximen Chuuxue put his hand on his shoulder, and comforted him: "This is not something you and I can control."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded silently, but his heart was like a huge rock pressing down on the top, and he couldn't help worrying.Something flashed through his mind, but he couldn't grasp it. He scratched his hair irritably, sighed, and was extremely frustrated.

Ximen Chuuxue glanced at the window calmly, his pupils shrank immediately, and he involuntarily touched the hilt of his sword. A vague figure standing a hundred meters away was looking at them steadily.

The sound of the flute, which is softer than the spring breeze, seems to be very close, but also seems to be far away, but the person playing the flute cannot be seen.The wine in Wang Lianhua's cup was light blue, the snow-white clothes on her body were light and soft, the corner of her mouth was a slight and flamboyant smile, but her eyes drifted far away, as if she had been drunk and couldn't extricate herself from the graceful sound of the flute.

The little old man sat opposite him, but his face was not very good-looking, not only bad-looking, but livid, but he didn't get angry, looking at Wang Lianhua as if he was looking at a dead person.

The sun has gone down.The evening wind carried the fragrance of flowers, making Wang Lianhua very comfortable.He took a deep breath, sighing

Said: "On such a beautiful day, why should we intrigue and fight to the death?"

The little old man let out a cold hey, and mocked: "I can only blame you for stretching your hands too long. Although this island is small, it is the painstaking effort of this old man all my life. I will never allow others to trample on it!"

Wang Lianhua squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "How could it be cheating? It is obviously a gift for you. The little Japanese pirates are just naughty boys, so there is nothing to worry about. I heard that Fusang is rich in silver mines..."

The little old man stared at him for a long time and suddenly smiled: "The old man finally knows why Gong Jiu asked you to come. A man is so good at deceiving people. You deliberately lured the Japanese to me just because you want me to restrain you. , but you have to know that if a killer is exposed to others, it means that he has lost his value."

Wang Lianhua said lightly: "So what?"

"So what?" The little old man laughed at his arrogance.

Wang Lianhua took a sip of the wine in her glass, laughed arrogantly, her eyes were amazingly bright: "Do you know that tonight, King Dingbei, ah no, the emperor is about to die at the hands of the rebels, and King Taiping held his righteousness to punish him." Kill the rebels, those who follow me will prosper and those who oppose me will perish, is it possible that the king and the land lead the land and the land is the king's minister, Wu Ming, you still don't obey!"

The little old man was panting violently, his chest heaving and rising, and his fierce look was revealed.

Wang Lianhua rolled her eyes, her tone softened again, and she persuaded: "Why is the island owner so stubborn? I am afraid that no one can inherit your mantle except the ninth son. In the future, the ninth son will become the emperor, and Wuming Island will be the emperor. The sword in your hand does not go against your original intention."

"So that's how it is, so that's how it is..." Before the words finished, the little old man flew towards him, flicking his well-maintained fingers like orchids, straight to his face!

Wang Lianhua turned back and greeted her with a palm, her clothes billowed up and her long sleeves flew like flowing clouds, pouring down like water, her left palm turned into a palm shadow to protect the whole body.

There are 72 large points on the body.

The little old man sneered, his fingers turned into steel knives and plunged obliquely into Wang Lianhua's palm, straight to his heart.Wang Lianhua saw that something was wrong, she couldn't dodge it in time, so she had to take a hard blow to avoid the vital point.Changing nine kinds of body skills in a row is actually the secret of Shaolin, Wudang and other sects.The little old man said "Hey", his limbs went numb for an instant, his eyes lit up, and he stopped chasing him instead.Wang Lianhua's feet seemed to be blown by the wind, and she had disappeared, leaving only a pool of blood, which was particularly bright and glaring.

A small building with a lamp like a bean.

It was late at night, but Huamanlou couldn't fall asleep, and sat on the edge of the bed, holding a book and slowly passing away.The strength of the medicine has not completely dissipated from his body, his limbs are weak and weak, his whole body is a little sluggish but his spirit is very good.There are no flowers in the room, but it is full of the fragrance of flowers, which is soft, faint, refreshing and intoxicating.

Hua Manlou put down the book involuntarily, closed his eyes, just like what he did before, to feel the world wholeheartedly.With his ears, with his heart.The wind is singing briskly, the moonlight is gently falling on the ground, the grass is growing hard, and the flowers are competing to reveal their fragrance...and...the smell of blood!

Hua Manlou suddenly opened his eyes, and a person fell in through the window, the bloodstains on the snow-white clothes were shocking, he couldn't see his face, he just lay there motionless, his breath was barely audible.

Hua Manlou's heart skipped a beat, and he became uncontrollably flustered. He could almost recognize such a familiar figure at a glance——Wang Lianhua!Stumbling forward, she knelt down beside Wang Lianhua, trembling and sniffing at him, Hua Manlou's hands and feet were cold, and she couldn't feel anything.how come?how come!

On Wang Lianhua's chest, there were two deep finger holes left, and the blood was still bubbling out. It was obvious that the bleeding had stopped but there was no effect at all.Hua Manlou was at a loss and pressed it, the warm blood almost burned his hand.Wang Lianhua groaned weakly, her lips moved slightly.

Huamanlou almost wept with joy, and hurriedly leaned over, the barely audible voice called out next to his ear: "Qitong..."

Hua Manlou firmly held his hand, her face was icy cold, her eyes were sore and dazed, as if she couldn't see anything.It wasn't until Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuuxue caught up to them, that Hua Manlou grabbed their hem in a daze, begging in a low voice, "Save him!"

Ximen Chuuxue took a deep look at him, picked up Wang Lianhua and put him on the bed without saying a word, carefully inspected his wound, after careful treatment, his face became more and more gloomy.

"How is he...?" Lu Xiaofeng stood beside the bed with complicated eyes and asked softly.

Ximen Chuuxue looked at Huamanlou fixedly: "The injury was too serious, but it was still saved, it's just..."

"Just what?!" Hua Manlou was overjoyed and startled, but at this moment, a but made his heart hang high again.

Ximen Chuixue said: "If you can save your life, you won't be able to save your illness. I don't have much medicine with me. I'm afraid this is the root cause of the disease. If I take care of it carefully, I may be able to live for a few more years."

Lu Xiaofeng also felt a sense of regret when he heard the words, Wang Lianhua's perverse behavior is not lacking in cuteness, true and false, every step of the scheme is enough to make people frightened, but he has to praise his good skills, stunning talent, and charm Wan Duan.Such a romantic figure can't escape the fate of premature death after all, so how can it not be sad?Excuse me?

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Hua Manlou worriedly, but the latter was completely awake.Huamanlou has never been a delicate woman. The panic at the beginning gradually calmed down, but she calmed down. He asked calmly, "I wonder what kind of medicine Ximen Zhuang needs? If I leave at this moment to go back to Hua's house to get it Can you make it in time?"

Lu Xiaofeng asked anxiously: "How are you going back? Are you flying back?"

Hua Manlou was silent, but she was extremely determined, she just stared at Ximen Chuuxue quietly, as if as long as Ximen Chuuxue nodded, he would immediately set off without hesitation.

Ximen Chuuxue gave an inexplicable cold snort, and said in a stiff tone: "It's a blessing to save his life if it's unnecessary."

Hua ManLou was dejected, looked at Wang LianHua tenderly with a pale face, forced a smile and said: "I forced it, and the owner of Laoximen will worry about it."

Ximen Chuuxue nodded but unceremoniously issued the order to evict the guests: "You all go out."

Hua Manlou shook his head and pleaded: "I want to stay." His tone was urgent and sincere, even Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but want to intercede for him.

Ximen Chuuxue looked cold and serious, just looking at them mockingly.Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard embarrassingly, and tugged at Huamanlou's sleeves calmly.

Hua ManLou didn't move, and honest people were often even more bewildered when they were stubborn. At least Lu XiaoFeng could only smile dryly and slip out of the room in disgrace.

"You want him to die?" Ximen Chuuxue said coldly.

Hua Manlou's pupils shrank suddenly, took a deep breath, and walked out without saying a word with a cold face.

It wasn't until Hua Manlou's footsteps could no longer be heard that Ximen Chuuxue sat down on the bed again, his dark eyes sank almost imperceptibly, and he said in a slow mocking tone: "All the theatergoers have left. , Prince Wang hasn’t sung enough yet?”

The originally weak and dying person on the bed smiled sweetly and shyly, with a hint of pride in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, a pair of lacquer-like eyes, amazingly bright, even his pale to transparent face looked good.He blinked innocently, and smiled weakly: "The injury on my body is so real, how can I say it's a lie?"

Ximen Chuuxue sneered: "When you coaxed me to come, you have already set up a plan, right?"

Wang Lianhua emphasized unwillingly: "It's a favor, not a lie."

Ximen Chuuxue raised his eyebrows: "Use Lu Xiaofeng's order? The prince is still so eloquent, and the injuries on his body are not serious."

Wang Lianhua's face froze, and her expression became sickly, at this moment she coughed violently.He took his hand to cover his mouth, but traces of blood flowed out from between his fingers, and dripped onto the jade-colored quilt along his pale jade-like wrist, which was shocking.He moaned pitifully and looked up at Ximen Chuuxue, and sighed with difficulty: "It turned out that I was wrong, I just hope that the owner of the villa will never argue with me. Lu Xiaofeng is Qitong's good friend, how could I be serious?" hurt his life?"

"Oh?" Ximen Chuuxue was noncommittal, "The prince really has a heart."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Wang Lianhua said repeatedly: "It's a great fortune for Wang to make friends like the owner and Lu Xiaofeng."

Ximen Chuuxue almost laughed angrily, and touched his wound calmly with a little force.Wang Lianhua grinned her teeth, cold sweat dripped all over her face, she looked like she was about to faint, and wailed loudly.

"Deng Deng Deng" there was a sound of hurried footsteps, the door was slammed open, Hua Manlou was the first to rush in, seeing this scene, she threw herself to the side of the bed and held Wang Lianhua's hand tightly, her lips trembling He asked sharply, "What's going on here?!" He turned his head and anxiously wiped Wang Lianhua's sweat, and asked softly, "Lianhua, how are you? Does it hurt? Where does it hurt? Is it a wound?"

With a dark face, Ximen Chuuxue dropped two bottles of medicine and turned to leave, taking along Lu Xiaofeng who came to join in the fun.

Wang Lianhua's eyes were full of tears, her air was like gossamer, there seemed to be all kinds of tenderness and sadness in her eyes, she called softly: "Qitong..." The strong nasal voice was very much like a child who has been wronged.

Hua Manlou opened his mouth and couldn't help but bury his head on his arm, his voice hoarse and choked: "Please, don't leave me."

On □'s forearm, there was a piece of warm wetness, Wang Lianhua raised the corners of her lips slightly, and replied softly: "Okay."
