Snake Tale

With the loss of vitality, he should have been lethargic and unconscious.But the partitions in this thatched hut are too thin, and Luo Yi has strong ears and strong ears. The neighbor next door talks at night by candlelight, every word, every sentence, every smile, although it is not clear, it is like insects and ants burrowing into his ears.Luo Yi was so angry that his liver hurt for no reason, and he just spent the whole night on the couch.Unable to sleep at night, he simply turned over and sat up, pulled out a piece of rock, and sat in front of the case to sharpen the knife wholeheartedly.When dawn broke and Shen Yuzhu sent Qin Wei back down the mountain, the rusty hatchet had already been sharpened by Luo Yi until it shone coldly and had the power to cut hair.

Shen Yuzhu brushed the mist of Lin Lan on the sleeves of his robe, recalling Qin Wei's unpredictable attitude, melancholy about his own bleak future, his mind was like a steaming cloud, he lazily opened the door, and saw Luo Sitting in front of a few desks, Yi sharpened his knife, and couldn't help but startled: "Um...you—?"

Luo Yi had bruises on his cheeks, his eyes were black and blue, and he said coldly, "Come here and knock your head twenty times."

Shen Yuzhu couldn't help laughing, and the lingering melancholy in his mind was swept away, and he walked over with a smile: "I'm looking for a magnet, have you seen it?" He didn't get annoyed when he didn't get a response, he searched for a while, and left again go out.

He kicked the magnet and walked up and down the courtyard three times.Then I leaned down to look at it.

On the blue-black magnet, two silver needles as thin as a cow's hair were imperceptibly stained.

He tweezed them out and stabbed them into the orchids.The fat white orchids gradually swelled with a layer of black air, but in a short while, all the flowers and leaves withered and withered, turning into a puddle of sludge.

He looked down, stared blankly for a long time, sighed lightly, and walked into Luo Yi's room with a perplexed look on his face.

"Take off your clothes," he said.

Luo Yi frowned, looking at Shen Yuzhu's serious eyes.After a while, he stood up without saying a word, took off his robe, and looked down at him coldly.

Shen Yuzhu didn't move at all, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "Really - everything is gone?"

"..." Luo Yi froze, stretched out his hand very reluctantly, picked up something from his long hair, and threw it on the table casually.

It was a strand of curly black hair, tied at the end of it was a silver needle as thin as a cow's hair, and the tip of the needle was quenched with blue light.

Shen Yuzhu knew it at a glance, and stood up: "Did you touch it?"

Luo Yi Leng said: "I'm not stupid!"

Shen Yuzhu smiled and said, "You're not stupid, how could you provoke Qin Wei?"

He walked up to Luo Yi, inspected his body carefully, even the tips of his hair, pupils, lips, and toes, and finally confirmed that there were no traces of poison left on his body, so he breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out She wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her head in his neck.

He suddenly fell completely in his arms, Luo Yi could hardly bear him, staggered a step back, and sat down on the couch.Shen Yuzhu made an inch of progress, rubbing the tip of his nose against his neck, half complaining, half jokingly said: "It's sharpening the knife again, and hiding the needle again—why, you want to kill me so much?"

Luo Yi snorted: "Kill you? Is that enough?" He trembled a little from being rubbed by Shen Yuzhu, and couldn't help raising his neck slightly.

Shen Yuzhu smiled and said: "Don't you know that killing people with a knife is the lastest method?"

"Why?"

"For example, the art of war, you must understand: the bottom is to attack the city, the last is to attack the army, the second is to attack the enemy, and the upper is to attack the strategy-the good one is the one who is good, and the soldier who surrenders without fighting."

Luo Yi raised the corners of his lips, and said with a half-smile: "So to kill people: the inferior ones are slaughtered with knives; the superior ones are tricked; the most brilliant ones—"

"Treat him with affection." Shen Yuzhu quickly picked up, saying: "This kind of killing method can not only kill people's brains, but also kill people willingly and fearfully."

Luo Yi laughed, his teeth were like gourd rhinoceros, neat and white, he patted the back of Shen Yuzhu's head, and said jokingly: "Forget it. None of these three methods will work for you. It seems that you are destined to be To live a hundred years."

Shen Yuzhu looked at his smile, and said softly: "If you can - what method are you going to use to kill me?"

Luo Yi was startled for a moment, his blue eyes showed a rare bewildered expression, and he stared at Shen Yuzhu for a moment.Shen Yuzhu was almost embarrassed by him, but Luo Yi looked away first, and kicked the knife that was thrown aside:

"You? You—I'm the only one worthy of this."

Shen Yuzhu was quite disappointed, and thought: "This is what Qin Wei said, 'If you ask for a lie, you won't get it'?" He said, "What? You are also a veteran of lying, and you are expanding the territory for the Luo family. , Guangyao Menlin, Fuzi, Marquis of Jin, and Daijun, there are still few people who are hypocritical and perfunctory? Well, even your Luo family, if it is profitable, can't you lie and deceive without changing your face? Looking back one by one, the bottom of my heart really felt a little contemptuous, pinching Luo Yi's chin, and said lazily: "Now I feel sorry for myself, why don't you just pretend to make me happy?"...

Luo Yi was provoked into anger, and grabbed his wrist with his backhand, mockingly said: "Don't dare! When it comes to cheating and abducting, what kind of person am I! Why don't you hire someone else? Oh! I think it's your battle Too low, please don't move your magical childhood sweetheart?"

There is a hint of contempt in these words.Shen Yuzhu narrowed his eyes slightly, retorted his lips, and said with a smile: "That's right. If people allow me, why should I come to deal with you? It's better to settle for the second best than to fail at both ends, don't you think?"

Luo Yi only felt that Shen Yuzhu's words were frivolous, his attitude was ambiguous, and he had no sincerity in discussing matters seriously. He felt irritable in his heart, so he pushed him away, picked up his clothes and put them on, and said, "In this case, why don't we analyze it in detail, openly and honestly, and have a good talk. talk?"

Shen Yuzhu said: "Okay, what do you want to talk about?"

Luo Yi said: "Let's talk about how to save you from the fire and water."

Shen Yuzhu smiled and said, "Oh? Where does the water come from, and where does the fire come from? I also ask Mr. Luo to give me some advice."

Luo Yidao: "Xuanweizi's last words are well known in the world, why do you pretend to be stupid in front of me? Shen Yuzhu, you are now betrayed by all relatives and helpless, if you dare to show your deeds in the Jianghu, the world will surely arouse people's attention. .Do you think you can live in seclusion in this barren mountain for the rest of your life?"

Shen Yuzhu sighed lightly: "You are right, I really have no idea. According to Lord Luo's opinion, what should I do?"

Luo Yi said: "For the current plan, you only have one way to go by cooperating with me."

"How to cooperate?"

Luo Yi leaned forward, staring at him with burning eyes: "As long as you are willing to let me go back to Jiangdu, the Luo family's elite soldiers and generals are all available for you to send, so why are you afraid of those criminals? As for you want to investigate Xuan Weizi I can arrange Luo’s spies lurking in various countries to collect information for you, so why do you go to the dangerous place yourself?” He smiled slightly and said: “If you just want to avoid these unnecessary disputes, I can also help you Arrange a paradise far away from human habitation for you to support your life. Other treasures, wealth, and beauty, needless to say, what you want can be taken for you anytime and anywhere."

Shen Yuzhu lowered his eyes and pondered, listening to Luo Yi's eloquent talk, he gradually revealed his heart-wrenching expression, and said: "If Lord Luo can help you, what can Mrs. Shen ask for? But you won't get rewarded for nothing, just let Lord Luo plan and contribute. , I’m really sorry. Well, if Lord Luo doesn’t abandon the humbleness, how about letting me take up an official position in your mansion? Shen is short-witted and withdrawn, but he has a lot of experience in driving carts and horses—— Master Luo, how about offering me to be a horseman?"

Luo Yi was stunned and took a step back, but Shen Yuzhu had already grabbed his arm and pressed him tightly on the bed.With his fingertips wrapped around Luo Yi's temples, he said slowly, "By the way, Shen has only this body, and he will never give up. I would like to recommend myself as a pillow with the quality of a willow—Master Luo, will you accept it?"

Luo Yi gritted his teeth and said, "You...you..."

Shen Yuzhu smiled and said: "I want soldiers, Lord Luo has them; I want wealth, Lord Luo has them; I want beauty, and Lord Luo himself is an unparalleled beauty in the world, so why should I give up beautiful jade for stubborn stones?" Woolen cloth?"

He leaned close to Luo Yi's cheek, and his tone was soft and cold: "It seems that Master Luo has not figured it out—now you are not qualified to bargain with me."

Luo Yi Meifeng was angry, and said: "I think you are the one who didn't understand the situation! Besides me, who else can save you now? If you continue to be obsessed with obsession, you will only die!"

Shen Yuzhu smiled calmly and leisurely, "Who is immortal? Master Luo, do you think I'm afraid of this? I'm afraid you won't live long enough to sing for me."

Luo Yi frowned, and said in his heart: "Shen Yuzhu's heart and nature are different from ordinary people, I'm afraid he has put life and death aside, but do I have to be buried with this guy?"

Thinking of this, it is bound to be no longer possible to conceal the current crisis.Luo Yi took a deep breath, and said, "Okay! I'll tell you what I know about Xuanweizi's death." He snorted coldly, "In case you're a blind man riding a blind horse. ’, I don’t know how I died, and I’ve made others suffer for nothing!”

Shen Yuzhu smiled and said: "Master Luo is willing to relieve me of my stupidity, that would be the best." He was happy in his heart, and his arms unconsciously tightened Luo Yi's embrace.

Luo Yi's body in only unlined clothes was in close contact with his warm chest, his heartbeat could be heard, and he couldn't help a surge of passion, he didn't dare to stay any longer, annoyed: "Let me go first!"

Shen Yuzhu was very reluctant to part with the warmth in his arms, but Luo Yi was very determined, so he could only mutter: "Why are you so stingy?" He slowly let go of his hands.

Luo Yi broke away from him, pulled up the neckline that had slipped off one shoulder with one hand, walked far away to sit down in front of a few desks, and calmed down his breath. Only then did he reveal the real cause of Xuanweizi's death:

"Every man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying Bi. The death of Xuan Weizi is related to the rumored remains of the Jiuding."
