[Lu Xiaofeng] Looking at the sea by leaning on flowers

The wedding date of Hua Manlou and Li Canghai has finally been set. This year, October [-]th is an auspicious day for the astrology. The two will be married on that day. There are still a few months left.

Li Canghai returned to the south of the Yangtze River with Huamanlou, but he hadn't enjoyed a few days of peace and stability when he heard that another shocking case had occurred in the Jianghu.The culprit of the crime was the "Embroidery Thief".This embroidered thief, with strong martial arts and secretive whereabouts, single-handedly committed sixty or seventy major crimes in just one month, stole the limelight.The villain was called the "Embroidery Bandit" because he was still embroidering flowers when committing crimes. The most appalling thing was that he embroidered not only flowers, but also blind people.

A few days ago, the southeast palace lost eighteen pearls, and Jiang Chongwei, the general manager, was also blinded by the embroidered thieves.

When Hua Manlou took Li Canghai to eat vegetarian food at Master Bitter Gourd, he happened to hear Master Bitter Gourd tell everyone about the case. Master Bitter Gourd is the brother of Jin Jiuling, the chief arrester of the six sects, so he naturally knows the beginning of the case. It was very detailed; he cooperated with Jin Jiuling and deliberately talked about the case in front of others, in order to use the aggressive method to design Lu Xiaofeng to help solve the case.

Sure enough, Lu Xiaofeng fell for the trick, and Huamanlou also expressed his willingness to help out, which surprised everyone. After all, Huamanlou was different from Lu Xiaofeng, he rarely solicited trouble.

"Don't forget that I am also blind, how can I not care about blind people?" Hua Manlou explained.

Li Canghai glanced at Lu Xiaofeng, and snorted coldly, thinking that this man and Jin Jiuling were "blind", she felt very unhappy, especially when she knew that one of them was an embroidery thief, which added a little bit of dissatisfaction.

Lu Xiaofeng was a little embarrassed, and coughed a few times in embarrassment.

Hua Manlou smiled indifferently, reached out to shake the woman's hand, and comforted her upset mood.

Several people work separately.Hua Manlou and Li Canghai went to find Chang Mantian and Jiang Chongwei from the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau; Jin Jiuling went to the Southeast Prince's Mansion to investigate the site; and Lu Xiaofeng took the red satin left by the embroidered thief to explore the Shenzhen Villa.

"Cang Hai," Hua Manlou always had such a keen sense, he held the woman's hand and asked softly, "What are you thinking about?"

Li Canghai regained his composure, and said perfunctorily, "I just suddenly realized that I don't know how to embroider..."

This is of course an excuse.She thought of what Huamanlou had said before, and knew the real identity of the embroidered thief, and she was angry. She wanted to tell Huamanlou directly about Jin Jiuling's identity, but she couldn't speak rashly. After all, Jin Jiuling was Lu Xiaofeng's friend and had a good reputation in the world Well, now she is undocumented.She wanted to remind her, but she couldn't remember the specific details. All she knew was that Jin Jiuling was the embroidered thief, that the red shoes were involved in the case, that the Snake King was controlled and used by others, and that Xue Bing, whom Lu Xiaofeng liked very much...

Xue Bing?Li Canghai suddenly felt something.

Hua Manlou smiled and said: "These small things don't need to be done in the sea. The Hua family has an embroidery shop. Although the embroiderer's craftsmanship is not as good as needles, it is also exquisite."

Concentrating his complicated thoughts, Li Canghai smiled and took the man's arm: "Then what else is trivial?"

"As long as Canghai is happy," Hua Manlou said softly, "Just do what you want."

"Hey," Li Canghai laughed teasingly, "Am I going to get a wealthy son-in-law?" I said it casually, but then I thought about it, isn't Huamanlou exactly what modern people call "tall, rich and handsome"?It is inexplicably joyful to apply such a description to the young master.She was secretly happy.

Hearing this, Hua Manlou shook his head amusedly, and was pleased with the hidden conviction in the woman's words, but asked, "Cang Hai, what do you think about the Embroidered Thief?"

The smile faded, and Li Canghai said softly: "I don't have any thoughts for now, I just have a few questions."

"What question?"

"First, the embroidered robbers embroidered in strange ways and seemed superfluous, so there must be a mystery hidden here; second, the embroidered robbers have a big beard," Li Canghai listed them one by one, "Obviously the beard is a cover, so he What are you covering up? Thirdly, the embroidered thieves commit sixty to seventy crimes a month, and all they steal are rare treasures. How do those treasures end up being sold? Also, I heard that the Southeast Palace is heavily guarded, making it even more difficult to get in and out of the warehouse , what's wrong here?"

Hua Manlou nodded: "What you said is full of doubts. If you clarify these questions, the identity of the embroidery thief will naturally be revealed. So we need the needle god Mrs. Xue to help check the embroidered handkerchief, and we will go to Jiang Chongwei and Chang Mantian, and then Go south to visit the southeast palace of Wuyang City."

Li Canghai rolled his eyes, and reminded implicitly: "The Embroidered Bandit's martial arts have been passed on to the gods, and he deliberately concealed his identity, which shows that he is quite famous in the world."

"It should be so."

"Generally speaking, the thieves steal treasures because of money." While recalling the plot, Li Canghai continued to edit, "The embroidered thief is most likely a luxurious and lustful guy. If we make a list of masters, we can see how they spend money." Once ruled out, maybe someone can be locked in.”

This seems like a clumsy and unreliable solution.But she had heard from Lu Xiaofeng that Jin Jiuling spends money lavishly and pays attention to the first-class in everything: "It's not the first-class wine, he can't drink it; it's not the first-class woman, he can't look down on it; it's not the first-class car , he will never sit down."

Hua Manlou didn't comment on her proposal, but said affirmatively: "Cang Hai already has someone to suspect."

Li Canghai smiled, pretending to be troubled and said: "Yes, according to this method, Lu Xiaofeng should be the first to be suspected!"

Hua Manlou laughed, he naturally knew that the woman didn't really think so, but since the other party didn't want to say it, he wouldn't force it either.

According to the plan, I went to find Chang Mantian and Jiang Chongwei, but unfortunately, those two kept secrets about the embroidery thief, and Huamanlou couldn't get many clues from them.

Jiang Chongwei, the majestic and high-spirited general manager of the Southeast Palace, has now become a blind man, living desolately in a mountain nunnery, dejected and hopeless, with little interest in life.

Before parting, Hua Manlou couldn't bear to see him in such grief, so he comforted him: "Director Jiang, don't forget that I'm also blind, and don't forget that I've always lived a good life!" When he spoke, he smiled lightly, his whole body Tranquility and happiness.

Li Canghai stared at him, his heart suddenly ached.

Jiang Chongwei was obviously taken aback, and laughed out loud, very sad, but also relieved.

Leaving Bixia Nunnery, out of the purple bamboo forest, Hua Manlou felt that the woman beside her was depressed, so she felt a little worried, stopped, held her hand, and asked, "Cang Hai, what's wrong with you?"

Li Canghai shook his head silently, and suddenly thought that the man could not see at all, and felt even more uncomfortable.Obviously Huamanlou didn't care, but she couldn't help feeling sad: "Huamanlou..." She murmured softly.

The young master seemed to be aware of her mood, and gently hugged her into his arms: "Cang Hai, if you are uncomfortable, don't bear it by yourself. We are going to be husband and wife. No matter what unpleasant things happen, I will be with you." share."

Feeling warm in his heart, Li Canghai showed his face again, hugged the man's back, and said lightly, "Well, from now on, Li Canghai will be Huamanlou's eyes."

Hua Manlou was so emotional that he didn't say another word. He stretched out his hand to caress the woman's face, then lowered his head, opened his mouth carefully, and wrapped her lips in a lingering and long kiss.

The wind in the mountains is quiet and peaceful, free from worldly disturbances.

Following the clues of the case, Hua Manlou and Li Canghai came to Wuyang City. As soon as Jin Jiuling got the news, he invited the two to live together in the Southeast Palace. The chief arrester is now the new director of the Palace.Knowing his identity, Li Canghai had some calculations in his mind, he was unwilling to go to the palace, Hua Manlou would naturally not go against her idea, and the two stayed at the Ruyi Inn.

Within two days, Lu Xiaofeng and Xue Bing also came to Wuyang City.Earlier, Lu Xiaofeng went to visit the leader of the local underworld, Snake King, and obtained a topographic map of the Southeast Palace from him, planning to visit the palace at night.Xue Bing had a dispute with him for this.

Lu Xiaofeng explained: "If the two of us go together, the chance of getting out alive is only half!"

Xue Bing couldn't accept it, and replied in pain: "I'm waiting for you outside alone, how can you tell me to bear it!"

Lu Xiaofeng insisted that she not go with him.Xue Bing was furious, scolded, and ran out of the inn crying.

Li Canghai, who was hiding by the stairs, turned to Huamanlou and said, "Lu Xiaofeng's meddling in the Embroidery Bandit case may have already been known by the other party. I'm afraid it's not safe for Xue Bing to go out alone. I'll follow her, maybe I'll gain something." .”

Hua Manlou worriedly took her hand and shook his head: "Let's go together." He can be sure now that Li Canghai must know something, and he won't ask, but it is absolutely impossible to let the other party take risks alone.

Li Canghai froze for a moment, then smiled: "Okay! Just wait a moment." He waved his sleeve lightly, and a tiny moth flew to the two of them lightly.

"This is..." Huamanlou could smell a faint and strange fragrance.

"I left a 'thousand-day fragrance' on Xue Bing." The woman explained, "With this tracking butterfly, we can find her."

Hua ManLou understood, although she felt that it was strange for a woman to pay such attention to Xue Bing, but she considerately did not ask.Li Canghai explained: "I also leave a note for you, Lu Xiaofeng and Jin Jiuling. After all, if we want to investigate the case, we will inevitably be alerted by the embroidery robbers. It would be bad if the other party strikes first." Xue Bing, she plans to give this moth to Lu Xiaofeng, presumably the other party can make good use of it.

It was already dark, Lu Xiaofeng went to visit the palace.Li Canghai and Hua Manlou chased Moth and found Xue Bing, who had just had a drink with the Snake King. In a secluded place, he slipped away immediately.

Listening to the drunken woman sitting on the ground scolding Lu Xiaofeng angrily, Li Canghai held Hua Manlou's hand, and after a few strokes in his palm, he showed his figure and walked up to Xue Bing: "Miss Xue, why don't you okay?"

It's a pity that Xue Bing didn't notice her existence at all, and said coquettishly again: "Bastard Lu Xiaoji!"

Li Canghai didn't intend to waste his words with the drunk anymore, he bent down to help the woman up, and was about to take her away, but at this moment, there was a sharp chill.She held Xue Bing in one hand, twirling on her toes, the Taoist robe knocked away the flying cold needles, and threw out the cold silk satin.

Ying Chong's 24 swords, with defensive as offensive, the sword strokes are dense, and under the dancing of the nine-foot cold silk, it is even more impermeable.After Li Canghai evaded the sneak attack of the passers-by, Hua Manlou appeared and began to wrestle with him.

After clicking on Xue Bing's fainting point, Li Canghai also stepped forward to help Hua Manlou attack that person.The Embroidered Thief's martial arts are indeed excellent, but in terms of treachery and speed, they are no match for the Xiaoyao faction's martial arts, while Huamanlou's martial arts are not limited to moves, and after absorbing Yu Linglong's medicinal power, their internal strength has improved to a higher level. his actions.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the embroidered thief made a false move to attack Xue Bing, who was under Li Canghai's care. Then, taking advantage of her distraction, he avoided the flowers and fled.

Li Canghai couldn't help curling her lips, but she underestimated Jin Jiuling, but if she didn't want to make Lu Xiaofeng sad and was willing to help him take care of Xue Bing, she might have subdued the embroidered thief tonight.

But forget it, let Lu Xiaofeng solve the case.

"Hua Man Lou, did you find anything?" Li Canghai asked as he carried the sleeping woman back to the inn.

Hua Manlou smiled: "At least one thing is certain, the Embroidered Thief is a man."

"Actually, you couldn't stop him just now, right?" Li Canghai asked again, but his tone was very sure.

Hua ManLou sighed in disappointment.Earlier, Li Canghai vaguely reminded him, and he noticed something in the fight just now, and he was a little suspicious. In addition, the embroidered thief was fierce, so he had to be distracted and worried about Li Canghai and the unconscious Xue Bing. So one inattentive made people escape.

"If you have something to do in the future, you must discuss it with me, okay?" Thinking back, Hua Manlou suddenly felt afraid. If he hadn't insisted on staying with Li Canghai, this woman would face the embroidered thief alone, and she would have to worry about the safety of another person. , Maybe you will suffer a big loss.

Li Canghai's expression warmed up, and he said softly, "I know." No matter how high the martial arts are, they are no match for the unpredictable schemes.She was indeed a little careless this time, and she would no longer be alone in the future, and she had to get used to sharing problems with this person.
