The legendary cake cutter [Comprehensive martial arts]

Ma Xingkong is good at martial arts, and he is quite well-known in the Jianghu. People like him, logically speaking, don't need to be humble and courteous to anyone.

But in front of Huo Tianqing, who was ten years younger than him, his attitude was extremely flattering.

On the way to escort Shangguan Danfeng to the dungeon, Ma Xingkong hardly closed his mouth, praised Huo Tianqing all the way, and even belittled Lu Xiaofeng and others, saying that they are not as good as Huo Tianqing, not as good as Huo Tianqing.

Huo Tianqing's face was a little ugly.

Even Su Shaoqing who was following beside him couldn't help but feel embarrassed for Huo Tianqing.

Can you not be embarrassed?The three of them were suppressed by the two of them just now and they were powerless to fight back. Who knows where Ma Xingkong got his confidence at this moment, and dared to say that they are not as powerful as Huo Tianqing.

After a while, Huo Tianqing seemed to be unable to bear it any longer.

He stopped, forced a smile, and said to Su Shaoqing and Ma Xingkong: "I suddenly feel unwell and want to go back to rest. I wonder if I can ask you two to escort this girl to the dungeon?"

Without even thinking about it, Ma Xingkong nodded immediately.

However, Su Shaoqing hesitated, and said: "I'm afraid this is inappropriate? The guards in the rear pavilion only obey the orders of the big boss and Guanshi Huo, and we are the only ones to go. I'm afraid we can't mobilize them."

Just now, Yan Tieshan specifically told Huo Tianqing to send someone to keep the assassin under strict guard.

In case something goes wrong during this delay, they will not be able to explain to Yan Tieshan.

"I'm just going back to rest for a while, it won't be long." Huo Tianqing glanced at Ma Xingkong pointedly, then winked at Su Shaoqing, and said: "When the rest is good, I will go there immediately to dispatch people, no It's in the way."

After receiving the hint, Su Shaoqing suddenly realized.

It is estimated that Huo Tianqing just wanted to find an excuse to avoid Ma Xingkong temporarily.

Thinking of this, Su Shaoqing naturally changed his words immediately, and said with a smile: "Guan Huo is right, Shaoqing is too worried. If that is the case, then you should hurry back and rest. Just leave it to the two of us here."

After giving Su Shaoqing a hint of gratitude, Huo Tianqing was polite again, before turning around and leaving from the sight of the two of them.

Without the presence of Huo Tianqing, the person who wanted to please, Ma Xingkong naturally wouldn't talk too much. Although he looked extraordinarily friendly when facing Huo Tianqing, but in front of Su Shaoqing, he pretended to be self-confident and condescending attitude.

Seeing his appearance, Su Shaoqing certainly wouldn't make fun of himself.

There was no words all the way, and the two continued to escort Shangguan Danfeng to the back pavilion.

The interior area of ​​the Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion is very large. It takes two sticks of incense to go from the water pavilion to the back pavilion. There is also a long and winding corridor between the back pavilion and the location of the dungeon.

The quieter the environment, the easier it is to arouse people's vigilance.

But maintaining a high degree of vigilance is a very exhausting thing.

The so-called, one bang, then decline, three exhaustion.

When they were about to finish the corridor and arrived at the back pavilion, the vigilance of Su Shaoqing and Ma Xingkong almost dropped to the lowest point.

If someone wants to rescue Shangguan Danfeng, now is undoubtedly the best time.

At the corner of the dim corridor, a black figure quietly appeared.

He came to the back of the three without a sound, raised his hand, and quickly and fiercely threw the thin and sharp blade between his fingers, which was only half a finger long, towards Ma Xingkong's back heart.

Hearing the sound of breaking through the air from behind, Ma Xingkong turned his head subconsciously, before he had time to see the situation behind him clearly, he heard a low shout from the front——

"Fear the dark torture!"

After cutting off the blade at the last second, Miao Qi swooped and jumped over the heads of Ma Xingkong and the other three, rushing towards the man in black who saw the situation was not good and turned his head to escape.

This person's reaction speed is extremely fast, and his lightness kung fu is also very powerful, but in the blink of an eye, he ran several meters away. As soon as Miao Qi just landed, he immediately used the magic light step and dodged to a distance of three feet behind the opponent .

"Want to run? Come back to me—"

Throwing the Bliss Yin and pulling the man in black to his side, Miao Qi raised the back of the saber without saying a word, and slapped the man on the back of the forehead heavily.

Accompanied by the crashing sound that gave people a headache, Lu Xiaofeng and Yan Tieshan suddenly appeared on the stage.

After sympathizing with the man in black who was knocked unconscious by Miao Qi, Lu Xiaofeng grinned, smiled at Su Shaoqing and Ma Xingkong who were still confused, and said, "I'm sorry, I surprised you two. .”

"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Miao Qi raised her chin and asked expectantly.

"Hmm... It's amazing, thank you for your hard work."

Lu Xiaofeng replied reluctantly.

Glancing coldly at Lu Xiaofeng's eyebrows, Miao Qi sneered, then bent down, pulled a hair from the black-clothed man's head, put it on the unsheathed blade in his hand, and blew gently.

The hair broke in two immediately.

Lu Xiaofeng's scalp tightened, and he changed into a courteous face in an instant, boasting to Miao Qi: "Ah Qi, you are really powerful, you are worthy of being the man in the legend who can defeat even Shi Guanyin! My admiration for you is like a torrent of river water , and like the Yellow River flooding out of control... Hero, please accept my worship!"

"Hmm, darling, get up."

Patting Lu Xiaofeng on the head with the opportunity, Miao Qi smiled very proudly.

"Cough cough."

Unable to cover the raised lips with clenched fists, Hua Manlou cleared his throat and reminded: "Don't just joke around, let's see the real face of this person first."

Although, they have basically confirmed the identity of this person.

"Don't look at it."

Yan Tieshan glanced expressionlessly at the man in black who was lying on the ground, and said coldly, "It's him, I can recognize his figure at a glance."

Having said that, Lu Xiaofeng still removed the veil on the face of the man in black.

"Guan Huo?!" Based on the reactions of Lu Xiaofeng and others, Su Shaoqing had roughly guessed the truth in his heart, but he never expected that this man in black would be Huo Tianqing who was walking with them just now.

Ma Xingkong didn't speak, but his expression was extremely exciting.

The person who tried to please him wanted to take his life, but the person who saved him was Miao Qi who had been belittled to nothing by him just now. Such a contrast made it difficult for him to accept in a short time.

But who cares what his reaction is?

Everyone's attention was on Yan Tieshan.

Lu Xiaofeng touched the prickly stubble on his lips, and said with a smile: "Boss Yan, we have already done what we promised you. Now, you should tell us everything, right?"

In fact, Hua Manlou had noticed Huo Tianqing's anomaly as early as in the water pavilion.

Although he can't see, he can hear many voices that ordinary people can't detect.

When Shangguan Danfeng was captured, Huamanlou noticed that Huo Tianqing's breathing and heartbeat suddenly became rapid. Of course, this was not enough to prove that there was something tricky between Huo Tianqing and Shangguan Danfeng.

But it was enough to make him suspicious of Huo Tianqing.

After Huo Tianqing left, Hua Manlou told Lu Xiaofeng about this discovery, and Lu Xiaofeng reached an agreement with Yan Tieshan through this.

In other words, it was a bet.

Their bet was whether Huo Tianqing and Shangguan Danfeng were in the same group.

If it was a group of people, then Yan Tieshan had to tell them everything she knew. If it was not a group of people, then they would only ask about the treasure.

After a moment of hesitation, Yan Tieshan accepted the bet.

He is very confident and feels that he will definitely win, because he believes that his vision of people is not bad.

Furthermore, Huo Tianqing has been with him for so many years, and he has never treated him badly, so he never thought that the other party would have any reason to betray him.

Ran and egg.

Facts slapped him hard.

Betrayed by the most trusted person around her, of course Yan Tieshan's mood will not get better. Lu Xiaofeng's speaking at this time is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire and making the situation worse. After all, to him, those old things are like a wound that can never be healed. Wound.

But he is indeed a man of faith.

"Okay... let me say."

With a long sigh, Yan Tieshan's originally straight body suddenly hunched down, and he seemed to have aged a dozen years in an instant. He recalled with distant eyes: "This matter started 50 years ago. .”

50 years ago, the Jinpeng Dynasty collapsed.

The late king entrusted the little prince and a treasure to four important ministers in the court.

These four people are Yan Tieshan, Dugu Yihe, Huo Xiu, and Shangguanmu.

Shangguanmu is a descendant of the emperor, and is responsible for taking care of the little prince, while the other three are responsible for using this treasure, taking root in the Central Plains, earning more money, which will be used for the restoration of the country in the future.

In the first 20 years, everything went on in an orderly manner as they planned.

Dugu Yihe, also known as General Yan Duhe, was not good at business, so he brought his art to worship under the Emei sect, and climbed from an outer disciple to the head of the sect by relying on his unique skill of dual cultivation of sword and sword.

Yan Tieshan and Huo Xiu chose to do business.

Their business is getting bigger and bigger, as if even God is helping them, but in just 30 or [-] years, they have become one of the richest people in the world from a nobody.

At this time, they felt that the time had come to restore the country.

But when they contacted Shangguanmu, they found out that several years ago, Shangguanmu had a relapse of his old illness and died of a serious illness. The only hope for them to restore the country, the little prince back then, was because of his greed for peace and prosperity. Life, deliberately concealed the news, and wanted to cut off contact with them.

Of course, Yan Tieshan and the others will not give up easily.

After a lot of hard work, they found the little prince's hiding place, talked to him many times, and tried to persuade him to change his mind and fulfill the late emperor's last wish.

As a result, in order to avoid them, the little prince disappeared again.

At this point, the three of Yan Tieshan finally gave up and decided to give up their plans to restore the country, and to be their own idlers and rich people in the Central Plains with peace of mind.

"I don't know if Huo Xiu and Dugu Yihe have contacted the little prince again." Yan Tieshan smiled wryly and sighed: "To be honest, I still didn't give up at the time, and I tried to contact him later, but it was not enough. For seven or eight years, I have never received any reply."

"Until these two years."

Until these two years, he suddenly received a letter from the little prince.

At the beginning, the little prince just said that his savings were running out and his life was in a difficult situation, and he wanted him to take out part of his treasures to help himself.

Thinking of her old relationship, Yan Tieshan sent someone to send some money over.

Once or twice is okay, but after more times, he lost his patience, and he didn't want to make offerings to this bastard who is only lazy but unwilling to take responsibility at all, so when the other party sent someone over again to ask for money At that time, Yan Tieshan directly rejected the other party.

"After that time, I did not hear from him again for a period of time."

"But half a year ago, a man who claimed to be the little prince suddenly appeared at the gate of the Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion, and said he wanted to ask me for the treasure."

Lu Xiaofeng noticed that Yan Tieshan's tone was a bit subtle when she said the phrase 'self-proclaimed little prince'.

"Could it be that this person is a fake?"

"Yes."

Nodding heavily, Yan Tieshan showed a look of sarcasm, and said: "These people really look alike, and they know the old affairs of the Jinpeng Dynasty very well, but they don't know, I just need to verify it a little, and I will be able to tell you immediately." See if they are true or false."

"them?"

Lu Xiaofeng caught the point.

He couldn't help but widen his eyes, and said in amazement: "Could it be that there is more than one person pretending to be the little prince?"

Glancing at Lu Xiaofeng with a half-smile, Yan Tieshan replied: "Of course there are more than one, but in half a year, there are probably seven or eight people who claim to be little princes who have come to me. So, you said just now that you would come for someone else." When it comes to bills, my reaction will be so strong."

Because he thought that Lu Xiaofeng was also sent by those fake King Jinpeng.
