The first floor of Luhua Tianxia

(07)

------

After dawn, Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou left the inn and returned to Baihualou, both of them were tired,

"Lu Xiaofeng, why do I hear happiness from your voice?"

After guarding in the closet all night, I didn't even see the shadow of the rabbit, and I only ended up with soreness all over my body. No one would be happy.When they returned to Baihualou, they found out that they had been tricked into diverting the tiger away from the mountain, and the wordless letter placed here had disappeared. One can imagine their feelings.

Except for the little phoenix with four eyebrows.

Suddenly, Hua Manlou said, "I know what you're happy about."

Lu Xiaofeng was startled, "You know?"

Hua Manlou swept away the dark clouds before, and smiled triumphantly, "The letter that was stolen last night is a fake, it's really still with you."

Lu Xiaofeng's heart that jumped into his throat fell back again, and just as he was about to answer, a voice came from outside,

"Lu Xiaofeng, Lu Xiaofeng," a childish voice called his name, walked into Baihualou,

The person who came was only [-] or [-] years old, and the innocent and childish face could not be concealed by the jade crown and white clothes. He was Mr. Dongfang's accompanying book boy.

The book boy bowed politely to them first, and presented a book post with both hands, inlaid with ivory silk borders, and a crescent moon mark on the title page.Lu Xiaofeng opened it, took a look, and his face sank.

"Is it Yuehua Building?" Hua Manlou asked next to him,

Lu Xiaofeng handed the post to him, Hua Manlou felt the smooth satin surface already understood in his heart,

"Double [-] years, the moonlight adds fragrance, and guests and friends congratulate together."

Lu Xiaofeng read the words above to him, and then went to tell the book boy that he would definitely go.

"Brother Lu, what do you think now?" After Shutong left, Hua Manlou asked him,

"Of course I'm going," Lu Xiaofeng showed his usual fearless expression, "I'll go if he dares to invite me."

He glanced at Huamanlou, "Can Mr. Hua do me a favor?"

"You said."

"Go back to Yuxiu Villa recently, don't come out, and don't pay attention to any rumors outside."

"Lu Xiaofeng!" Hua Manlou turned cold, "Are you afraid that I will implicate you, so you let me go?"

"Yes." Lu Xiaofeng actually admitted, "You promise me that you won't come out for seven days, and I promise you that you will come back from Yuehua Tower unscathed."

Hua Manlou forced a smile, before he could speak, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly held his hand,

"I know you will say yes."

Hua Manlou had regained his composure. Although his face was pale and his hand was cold, he didn't pull it out angrily, let alone leave with his sleeves.

"I understand that I won't let my friends worry about me."

------

The figure of the girl is in front of the screen, and the ring pendant makes a pleasant ding-dong sound with the dancing posture, and the fragrant face is faintly visible under the veil.

How can there be no wine in Miaowu Qingge, there is good wine in front of the case, and there is a beautiful woman in front of you.

Lu Xiaofeng was not in the mood to drink at all, nor was he in the mood to watch people, this was his second visit to Yuehua Building.

The jade-built building with carved railings is unusually noisy today. The bearded man is drinking, the handsome young man is also drinking, and the old man with all white hair is listening to music with his long beard.

Lu Xiaofeng was waiting for someone.

He suddenly discovered that things might not be as he thought.

Yuehua Building hosted a banquet in the name of celebrating the 20th anniversary, and he had never seen any of the dozens of people sitting in the lobby.

The maiko had already appeared in front of his eyes, when he turned around and spun around, he picked up the wine in front of Lu Xiaofeng, Lu Xiaofeng smiled and looked at the silver cup that the girl handed over, and took it.

Wherever the hand goes, what is taken off is the girl's veil.

The girl let out a cry of surprise, her dark eyes suddenly opened wide, she looked at Lu Xiaofeng flickeringly, then lowered her head shyly, and ran behind the screen without stopping.

Lu Xiaofeng was in a daze with the light Su powder veil in his hand.

Suddenly, all the sounds in the lobby disappeared, the orchestra stopped, and the sitting guests all stood up, they smiled at Lu Xiaofeng, and then walked out one by one in an orderly manner.

"Lu Xiaofeng." The owner of Yuehua Building finally appeared.

"It's you?"

"It's me, are you surprised?" Mr. Dongfang no longer dressed as a Taoist priest today, but wore a dark blue gown and the same black and green cloth shoes on his feet. He walked on the white marble floor without making a sound.

Although he was wearing plain clothes, he looked more radiant than ever today, and even his gray hair seemed to have life.

"It seems that today's congratulatory banquet in Yuehua Building is only for me," Lu Xiaofeng said,

"You can see that,"

"The way they go out is exactly the same as the way actors exit after closing the curtain."

Mr. Dongfang smiled, "It is true that I invited them from the theater troupe. Don't worry about these details, Mr. Lu."

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly asked again, "Then Maiko too?"

"Where do you think she came from?"

Lu Xiaofeng didn't answer,

"Did you think she was Shangguan Feiyan?" Mr. Dongfang smiled brightly. He seemed to be 20 years younger.

"Before you came, you thought that the owner of Yuehua was already Shangguan Feiyan. When you sat down and saw the maiko but couldn't see the master, you concluded that the person behind the veil was Shangguan Feiyan."

Lu Xiaofeng sighed, what else could he say, because what Mr. Dongfang said was absolutely right.

One and a half months ago at night, Shangguan Feiyan came to Yuehua Building and made a request to Mr. Dongfang.Lu Xiaofeng had already guessed this request.At that time, Yuehualou had already become Yingkou's fat because of the wordless letter, and there was only one person in this world who could prove Yuehualou's innocence.

That person must be Huo Xiu himself.

If Huo Xiu hadn't died, then the secret about the wordless letter was just nonsense, and those who were eyeing him would also retreat.

Lu Xiaofeng knew that Huo Xiu was not dead, and it was not hard to figure out that Huo Xiu fell into Shangguan Feiyan's hands, so it was only natural to come to the next conclusion.

"I understand now." Lu Xiaofeng sat down again, he was a little dizzy, "You are still the landlord of Yuehua, but the name of the post is signed by Shangguan Feiyan, this can only explain one thing."

Mr. Dongfang and Shangguan Feiyan have teamed up.

Lu Xiaofeng picked up the silver wine glass in front of him and drank it down in one gulp.

Mr. Dongfang looked at him, "Aren't you afraid that I might poison the wine?"

"The veil is already poisonous, so why bother." Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly, "Now, can you finally get to the point?"

-----------

"You must have guessed early in the morning that the person who went to Baihualou to get the letter that night was mine."

Lu Xiaofeng had no strength left, so he just replied indifferently, "Huo Xiu is still alive, whether that letter is true or not, it is already a piece of waste paper, why do you still ask me for it?"

"Whether Huo Xiu is dead or alive, the letter is equally important."

Lu Xiaofeng raised his eyes to look at him, "It seems that you know the secret in the letter."

There was mockery in Mr. Dongfang's eyes, "Why, do you still have extra energy to care about the secrets in the letter?"

"Indeed not, I should be about to die after being hit by your gun."

Mr. Dongfang spoke again with an extremely slow tone, "This is called a beiye. The eminent monks in the Western Regions carved Buddhist scriptures on the leaves, and they used the beiye. This is naturally from the Western Regions."

"The more vicious the gangster, the more pleasant the name." Lu Xiaofeng sighed,

"It seems that I will not die, I will only live a life worse than death."

"Not all guns are used to kill people." Mr. Dongfang said coldly again,

"It won't kill you, it won't make you die, it won't make you want to die, you won't feel any pain, and you will even be happy every day, more and more happy,"

"You will be intoxicated in your own dreams every day, forgetting everything in reality, and within a month, you will become indistinguishable from reality, and you will look like a madman,"

"I know you, Lu Xiaofeng, are addicted to alcohol. Isn't this method the same as getting drunk, and it's exactly what you want?"

As he spoke, he walked in front of Lu Xiaofeng, he wanted to take a look at the opponent's expression at the moment,

"From now on, there will be no Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows in this world, only a lunatic, don't you think it's wonderful."

Lu Xiaofeng was really stunned this time.

It is said that death is not terrible, but the feeling of waiting to die is terrible. Now Lu Xiaofeng finds out that it can be equally scary to be alive and happy.

All he could do was grit his teeth and show a miserable smile,

"Unless I give you that letter."

"It's not one letter, it's two letters, one is indispensable." Mr. Dongfang emphasized.

"It seems that you really know the secret in the letter." Lu Xiaofeng stood up slowly again, "And, you are also from Tsing Yi Lou."

Mr. Dongfang was startled, "How do you know?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked at him with eyes like looking at a fool,

"Huo Xiu is the landlord of Tsing Yi Building, and the letter was left by Huo Xiu. The one who can decipher this letter, isn't the Tsing Yi Building's own people?"

Mr. Dongfang laughed, "Do you really think that Huo Xiu is the owner of Tsingyi Building?"

He had already stopped Lu Xiaofeng with the sword with the light green tassel,

"I won't just let you go out like this today. I don't know if it's your quick finger, or the wind on my bridge is faster."

Lu Xiaofeng looked at him and his sword indifferently,

"I may not be sure whether Huo Xiu is the real landlord in Tsing Yi, but I know you won't be able to use that bridge."

Mr. Dongfang froze his sword,

"The more outstanding an assassin is, the more he hates crowds and the feeling of living in the sun. How could an assassin who could name his swordsmanship Fengshangqiao set up Yuehua Tower with great fanfare, and worked so hard to become Jiangnan? An organization with a unparalleled reputation.”

Lu Xiaofeng continued to look at him with that cold expression,

"The establishment of Yuehua Building should be the idea behind Tsing Yi Lou, otherwise how could it be done with your own strength."

"Back then, the style of painting bridges naturally rejected Tsing Yi Lou's request. I don't know who you used to be. You have been just a substitute since then."

Mr. Dongfang suddenly stabbed him with two threatening gazes, the sword light in his hand was more hateful than his gazes,

Jian Guang stopped suddenly, but it wasn't Lu Xiaofeng's hand.

No matter how indifferent or gloomy Mr. Dongfang's face was at the moment, it could not conceal the panic and anxiety in his heart.

The one that broke his sword was also a long sword, with a long and slender blade. A figure in white gauze was reflected in the Lingguang, and a fire was burning in the eyes of the figure.

"Huaqiaofeng is probably dead long ago, but he still has two apprentices,"

"You killed Hui Xue and Wan Qing in such a hurry, not because they were assassins sent by Tsing Yi Building, but because you were afraid that they would recognize that you were not their master."

Lu Xiaofeng had already stepped out the door with one foot,

"How fast the wind is on the bridge, please learn from his apprentice yourself."

"Wait," Mr. Dongfang called him suddenly,

"If you stay and help me kill her together, I will tell you the secret of the two wordless letters."

Lu Xiaofeng continued to walk outside,

"Lu Xiaofeng, I already knew that you left one of the two letters and handed the other to Huamanlou."

Lu Xiaofeng still didn't answer, but the others had already stopped,

Mr. Dongfang continued, "Since I know, Shangguan Feiyan also knows."

"So what?"

The turbidity in Mr. Dongfang's eyes disappeared, and it became the same as before, because he believed that Lu Xiaofeng had already understood the meaning of these words.

He can wait here for Lu Xiaofeng, Shangguan Feiyan has already intercepted another letter.

"I'm not sure how good Shangguan Feiyan's sword skills are, but I know Hua Manlou's martial arts very well." Lu Xiaofeng said,

"If you are really so sure, why don't you dare tell your good friend that the inscription on the post is not me but Shangguan Feiyan?"

"And why did you rush Huamanlou back to Yuxiu Villa after reading the post?"

Lu Xiaofeng had already turned around, and he looked at the old man in front of him with unpredictable eyes,

"Do you want me to believe that Hua Manlou will be tricked by Shangguan Feiyan again?"

Mr. Oriental let out a frightening laugh,

"Lu Xiaofeng, Lu Xiaofeng, you dare not let Hua Manlou stay, you want to find Shangguan Feiyan before him, but you don't know that he has already seen Shangguan Feiyan three months ago."

Lu Xiaofeng was still standing at the gate between the living room and the porch, his face uncertain.

No one knew what he would do, not even himself, because Mr. Dongfang suddenly fell down before he could make a decision,

The winning smile still froze on his face, until blood oozed from behind his ears, Lu Xiaofeng and Hui Xue realized that Mr. Dongfang didn't need them to do anything anymore.
