[Jian San + Gu Long] Put that flower and I will come!

At Sun Xuepu, Chu Liuxiang learned that besides being male, the four corpses she met at sea that day had one more thing in common: 20 years ago, they all had a relationship with Qiu Lingsu, the number one beauty in martial arts at that time. emotion.

The reason why it is said that there was a relationship is because 20 years ago, Qiu Lingsu asked Sun Xuepu to draw those four paintings, just to give them to those four people.

And, cut off contact with them.

At that time, Chu Liuxiang thought, she asked a famous artist like Sun Xuepu to do a portrait, in order to preserve her beauty on paper as much as possible, and then give it to the four men.In this way, although she left them, they would never forget her, and she wanted them to suffer for her every time they saw this beautiful portrait.

But Chu Liuxiang couldn't figure out why she wanted to cut off contact with them.

As a man, Chu Liuxiang couldn't figure it out, but as a woman, He Shangu made a deduction: When a woman does not hesitate to cut off contact with four men who love her, she usually has only one reason.

That was she was going to marry another man, a much better man than the four of them.

The man she married was either powerful or highly skilled in martial arts.

The director of the beggar gang, Ci, meets this requirement.

At this time, he heard that the wife of the gang leader and Master Suxin are good friends - and that Qiu Lingsu's only friend back then was also Master Suxin.

Judging from Qiu Lingsu's behavior of digging out Sun Xuepu's eyes after getting the painting, the beauty's behavior 20 years ago was by no means pure and kind. , obviously can't use her own name - otherwise her previous behavior will be dug out, even if Ren Ci doesn't care, the eyes of the beggar gang members will be different.

So the widow of the leader of the beggar gang is called Ye Shuzhen, not Qiu Lingsu.

The more Chu Liuxiang thought about it, the more she felt that her deduction was very correct, and she hurriedly said, "Didn't the man in black just come to attack Mrs. Ren, but he met Master Su Xin on the way and was about to silence him? Then what is Mrs. Ren doing now? "

The expressions of the two elders, Chen and Jiang, suddenly became tense, and they were about to go to the backyard of the nunnery, when they suddenly remembered that this place is still a place for Buddhist practice, and the backyard is where the female relatives live, so they stopped in embarrassment.

But Nangong Ling, whose expression was slightly off from the beginning, said, "This poison doctor... saved Master Suxin's disciple. Why don't the two elders look at her first, and the disciple and Brother Chu go in to visit Madam?"

The two elders had no objection, Nangong Ling took one last look at the little girl who was squatting beside Su Xin to check on the unconscious nun, then turned around and led Chu Liuxiang into the backyard.

Nangong Ling's glance was not hidden, everyone present saw it, but they all regarded it as unwillingness to see the murder of their father and enemy. Only Wan Feng who bowed his head to check the injury of Master Su Xin's disciple would not think so.

Nangong Ling's eyes are very strange... Is it the problem of the jade pendant?But that jade pendant was given by her elder brother under Master Jianghu, so what does it have to do with Nangong Ling?

Subconsciously, she recalled the appearance of the jade pendant - it has been more than two years since the senior brother gave her the jade, even with her eyes closed, she can still accurately describe the appearance of the jade pendant in her heart.

The jade is of excellent quality, with maple leaves carved on one side and a maple character engraved on the other.

She once asked the elder brother curiously if she knew her name from the elder master beforehand, so she specially ordered such a jade pendant.But for her question, the senior brother just smiled meaningfully, thinking that one day Yu'er will know.

Because the big brother's smile was so charming at that time, the little girl shivered violently, always feeling that something bad would happen if she continued to ask, so the little girl with extremely sensitive intuition decisively changed the topic.

The big brother's strange smile just faded away, but sometimes the way he looked at her... always made Wan Feng feel like she had turned into a piece of beautifully made sweet-scented osmanthus cake, being scrutinized where to eat it. .

But what does this have to do with Nangong Ling?

Thinking of Nangong Ling who had become a little strange from the very beginning, Wan Feng kept moving her hands, first sealed the nun's acupuncture points with silver needles, and then raised her head and said to the two elders who were looking at her: "Master Suxin Her disciple is seriously injured, and I need to treat her."

And this kind of treatment obviously cannot be carried out in this kind of place.

Chu Liuxiang met the beauty as she wished, but unlike the portrait, Mrs. Ren was wearing a black veil, so she couldn't see her true face clearly—if so, her elegant temperament was rare in her life.

The number one beauty in martial arts back then really lived up to her reputation.

Although Mrs. Ren admitted that she was Qiu Lingsu, she denied it without hesitation as to whether she wrote a letter to those four people recently.

Chu Liuxiang seemed to be stuffed into a raw persimmon suddenly, and he felt bitter, astringent, and bored. He couldn't figure out why Mrs. Ren refused to reveal the secret of this letter.

"But ma'am..."

Mrs. Ren turned around again, and knelt down in front of the Bodhisattva: "Nangongling, when you go out, close the door yourself, forgive me for not seeing you off."

Nangong Ling quietly pulled Chu Liuxiang who was in a daze, signaling that they should go, Chu Liuxiang was anxious, and suddenly said loudly: "Madam is here, so we know that Yu Wanfeng who poisoned Senior Ren is in the front yard!"

He knew that Miss Wan was not the real murderer, but if Qiu Lingsu didn't drive her away like this, he had to pull Miss Wan out first—how could the widow know that the murderer of her husband was just outside the courtyard? Do you kneel and practice like a clay bodhisattva?

Madam Ren's shoulders suddenly trembled.

Chu Liuxiang suddenly realized that it was effective, and hurriedly said loudly: "The remains of the old gang leader Ren are still at the helm of the beggar gang, and he will not rest in peace after death. Don't you want to see the murderer with your own eyes?"

Mrs. Ren's straight back trembled uncontrollably, even though her back was facing them, Chu Liuxiang could still imagine the excitement that Mrs. Ren was feeling at this moment.

"But... but really?"

Her voice was still beautiful, but the tremors in it were clearly audible to anyone.

"Madam, don't worry! This disciple has already ordered the two elders, Chen and Jiang, to take care of the poison doctor! When the disciple brings him back to the main helm, he will make a blood sacrifice in front of the mourning hall to comfort the spirit of the lord in heaven!" Nangong Ling replied quickly.

Mrs. Ren was silent for a while, and said: "My husband has passed away, and my concubine is a woman, so I am powerless to take revenge. Nangong Ling, you can deal with it."

This reaction was beyond Chu Liuxiang's expectation, he didn't understand, but the order to evict the guest had been issued, even with Chu Liuxiang's thick skin, he was too embarrassed to stay.

When the two returned to the front yard, Nangong Ling seemed to know that Chu Liuxiang was in a bad mood when he returned empty-handed, so he didn't bother him on the way, but just quietly accompanied him.

When she saw the little girl who seemed to be arguing with the two elders and oblivious to the wound on her body, Chu Liuxiang felt her head hurt even more.

How can this girl completely ignore the fact that she is in the hands of the beggar gang, and still make such a fuss...

Nangong Ling also stopped in her tracks, and said apologetically, "Brother Chu, next time I will get drunk with you for three days, but today..." He looked at the little girl who still didn't show any signs of depression or panic under the watchful eyes of the two elders. child.

Chu Liuxiang was anxious, but she didn't know how to express it clearly. Seeing that Nangong Ling was about to go, she hurriedly said, "I've also heard about Mr. Ren, so I'll go and hear... what the poison doctor said."

Although Nangong Ling was surprised why he suddenly asked this question, she was not surprised. She nodded immediately, and the two of them came to Wan Feng side by side.

Although the little girl fell into the hands of the beggar gang, she didn't show any panic in her expression. In the eyes of the two elders, this school's clear-hearted style naturally became a murder without guilt and inhumanity, let alone treating the beggar gang The evidence of his pursuit and killing in his eyes became more and more complicated.

When they were fighting with the man in black just now, the girl did not take the opportunity to escape, nor did she secretly kill her, but instead used her own internal strength to protect and assist them, and then used her body as a shield to block the man in black from attacking Su Xin The master's sword, its style is open and upright, just like a decent disciple of a famous school.

But she was also the one who poisoned the old gang leader... No wonder the two elders were conflicted.

Nangong Ling met the two elders before, her eyes fell on the little girl, her eyes were complicated, she seemed to be thinking about something, she asked after a long time, "Take out the jade pendant just now and show me."

Wan Feng frowned, is it jade pendant again?

"That's my thing, why should I show it to you?" The little girl is very talkative on weekdays, but this jade pendant is something she keeps carefully on weekdays, and it just fell on the lawn, which made her terrified - but don't If it breaks, Eldest Brother will have to recite her to death with the Diamond Sutra--he's almost in the palm of his hand right now, how can he give it to someone!

What if this person is resentful and falls on her?

The two elders were also surprised that the young leader didn't ask other questions, and asked about the jade pendant first, even Chu Liuxiang looked over in doubt.

Nangong Ling pursed her lips, he couldn't tell the truth... because this jade pendant was very similar to the family heirloom jade pendant that his elder brother had described to him.

And the jade pendant was originally on the father's body, so it should have been buried with his father.

Maybe he got it wrong...But the elder brother specifically mentioned in the description back then that the maple leaf on the jade pendant of Tianfeng's family was different from what he was used to seeing. Cracks are completely different and their most distinctive feature.

The source of the seven lobes, in addition to the five to seven lobes in the leaves of the Japanese red maple tree, is also because Tianfeng's family is from the Iga ninja.

In Iga, there is a temple called "Iga 49-in" opened by Gyoki, which is the origin of teaching Iga ninjutsu in ancient times, so the seven splits imply that the Tianfeng family is one of the subordinates of Iga ninja.

But in the Central Plains, the shape of maple leaves is mostly five-cracked, so Nangong Ling felt suspicious when he first saw the maple leaves carved on the jade pendant.

By the way, Ren Ci took care of his father's funeral back then. Could it be that Ren Ci didn't bury the jade pendant as a funeral object that day, but took it away?

He hurriedly said: "Because I saw that jade pendant once at my adoptive father, but I have never seen that jade pendant in the shape of a seven-split maple leaf anywhere else!"

As soon as the words came out, the eyes of the two elders looked at the little girl in a wrong way: "Young gang leader met old gang leader Ren?"Then how did it get into this girl's hands now?

Without even thinking about it, Wan Feng retorted: "Impossible! This is..." She wanted to say that it was given by her elder brother, but when she thought that she would be forced to question her teacher, she paused when the words came to her lips. : "... This was given to me by someone else."

No one ignored the obvious pause.
