Twin Sword

Chapter 9: Poisoning Incident

The two walked into the back hall, and there was a gorgeously dressed and graceful young woman who greeted her. This person was Li Yanbei's No. 13 wife, known as the Thirteenth Aunt.She had already walked to the table and waited for the two of them. Aunt Thirteen smiled and said, "You are here, I have prepared the wine."

Li Yanbei pointed to Lu Xiaofeng and said: "This is the famous Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows in the world."

Aunt Thirteen said: "I've seen him today." She gave Lu Xiaofeng a slight kiss, "On the street today, Sister Ouyang pointed it out to me."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly, "The guest you invited is Ouyang Qing?"

Aunt Thirteen nodded, "Sister Ouyang is in the kitchen, and she said that she wants to make Lu Xiaofeng her best dessert, snails soaked in butter."

Li Yanbei laughed, "Lu Xiaofeng deserves to be called Lu Xiaofeng!"

Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard in embarrassment. "But I'm worried that she is going to poison me to death?"

Thirteenth Aunt was surprised, "Your sister has always fallen in love with you, how could she poison you to death? I really wonder if you, Lu Xiaofeng, are an idiot. I'd better go and see my sister first, and you two can just sit and drink."

Lu Xiaofeng let out a long sigh, Li Yanbei was curious, "Lu Xiaofeng, Ouyang Qing fell in love with you, and she is the No. 1 prostitute in the capital, which many people can't ask for, why are you still sighing?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "You all said that she fell in love with me, but I never couldn't see it."

Li Yanbei shook his head and said, "I have to doubt it now."

Lu Xiaofeng asked, "What do you suspect?"

Li Yanbei said: "I wonder if you are an idiot."

Lu Xiaofeng sighed, just kept drinking, Li Yanbei didn't speak any more, he could tell that Lu Xiaofeng was preoccupied all the time, so he drank with him.

Suddenly, a pleasant laughter interrupted the two of them, "Why are you all drinking here? If you drink too much, wouldn't it be a waste of my sister's efforts."

Lu Xiaofeng turned his head, cupped his hands slightly, "So it's Aunt Thirteen!"

Thirteenth Aunt came over, put down the snails soaked in butter, and said: "My sister said that she needs to wash up first, and then come here, so I will let you eat first."

Li Yanbei looked at the fried and delicious pickled snails, and said, "I didn't expect that today I would be able to enjoy Lu Xiaofeng's favor and taste the dim sum made by Ouyang Qing."

Aunt Thirteen sat aside and smiled as they watched the two drink and eat the conch on the plate. In a blink of an eye, there was no one left on the plate of conch, and the two who were drinking also fell on the table. On, unconscious.Aunt Thirteen watched the two fall down coldly, with a vicious smile on her face.

Lu Xiaofeng is very lucky, whenever he is in danger, there will always be her friends to rescue him.When Lu Xiaofeng woke up, he found that he was lying on a very comfortable and clean bed safe and sound.

The room was filled with the scent of chrysanthemums and osmanthus seeds, and a man in white clothes like snow was standing in front of the window with his back to him.

Lu Xiaofeng jumped up, he found that he could still jump up, but his legs were a little weak, "Ximen Chuuxue." Lu Xiaofeng stood on the ground with bare feet and shouted: "Where did you appear from?

Ximen Chuuxue said coldly: "A person shouldn't talk like that to his savior."

"Savior? You saved me?" Lu Xiaofeng shouted again.

Suddenly the door squeaked, and someone pushed it open vigorously, "Lu Xiaofeng, it seems that you are all right! As soon as you woke up, you yelled at A Xue, hum, if it wasn't for A Xue, you would have been killed People are incinerated."

Lu Xiaofeng lost his voice: "What do you mean?"

Han Mei went to the table and sat down, "Of course that Aunt Thirteen wanted to kill you, so she set fire to Li Yanbei's mansion."

"Li Yanbei is dead? Aunt Thirteen killed him?"

Han Mei nodded, and Ximen Chuuxue turned her head and said, "His luck is not as good as yours. He will have been killed by Aunt Thirteen when I arrive."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why did she kill Li Yanbei?"

Ximen Chuixue said: "Because Li Yanbei sold the land and got a 190 million silver ticket."

Han Mei glanced at Lu Xiaofeng, and continued: "Li Yanbei is not the only woman, but with this silver ticket, she can go wherever she wants."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "I see, if she wants that banknote, she can only kill Li Yanbei, but she is afraid that I will investigate the cause of Li Yanbei's death, so she murdered me. What about Ouyang Qing?"

Han Mei grinned at Lu Xiaofeng and said, "I thought you didn't know how to ask?"

Lu Xiaofeng hesitated for a while, then asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Han Mei said: "She is in the next room, but she was poisoned. Although Axue helped her cure it, it still takes time to recover."

Lu Xiaofeng sat back on the bed again and said, "That's good."

Han Mei said, "Aren't you going to see her?"

Lu Xiaofeng rubbed his nose, "No, I'd better not go now. By the way, I haven't done it for you yet, why are you here?"

Ximen Chuuxue smiled, "I want you to accompany me to the Forbidden City tomorrow."

Lu Xiaofeng glanced at Han Mei, "No matter what you ask me to do, I will definitely help you."

Han Mei said: "Don't forget, there is me."

Ximen Chuuxue looked at the gentle smile on her face, Hanmei looked at Lu Xiaofeng's hesitant expression, and said, "Lu Xiaofeng, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "I just don't know whether I should tell this matter."

Ximen Chuixue said, "What's the matter?"

Lu Xiaofeng hesitated for a long time before saying: "Ye Gucheng is injured, and the injury is not serious."

Han Mei said with some displeasure: "A few days ago, I saw that he was fine."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "He was poisoned by Tang Sect's arsenopyrite and has not recovered."

Ximen Fuxue's face changed, "He is the only opponent I have identified. This duel is what I have been looking forward to, but now he is injured. It is really unfair."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Then you want to..."

Ximen Chuixue said: "I want to find him."

Lu Xiaofeng said again: "Then what are you going to do to find him?"

Ximen Chuuxue sneered and said, "I saved you just now."

Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up, he knew that Ximen Chuuxue's medical skills were excellent, maybe this time he could cure Ye Gucheng's poison, "I'll take you there."

Han Mei looked at the two men in front of her, and said dissatisfiedly, "Did you forget me?"

Lu Xiaofeng's movements stopped, Ximen Chuuxue was also a little helpless, he knew that Meihua had always disliked Ye Gucheng, this time they discussed saving him in front of her, Meihua would definitely not allow it.

"Meihua, I just want to have a fair duel with him, and I will never lose, don't you believe me?"

Han Mei was speechless, "Okay! Go ahead, I know I can't stop you. But if you can't save him, don't be brave."

Ximen Chuuxue smiled and said, "I will."

Han Mei nodded, "Go early and come back early, I'll go to bed first, hum, it's still not clear."

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Han Mei's walking figure, "I didn't expect that she would agree so easily."

Ximen Chuixue said: "Because she is not only my wife, but also a top swordsman."

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly realized, "Indeed."

The author has something to say:

last day

The deserted moonlight shone on the gloomy courtyard, and the lamps in the meditation room were already lit.

"Ye Gucheng actually lives here?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Because no one would know that Baiyun City would actually live in such a dilapidated temple, just like you, and no one would think that Ximen Chuuxue is actually the owner of a pastry shop."

A smile appeared on Ximen Chuuxue's face, "How did you find him?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "A monk named Shengtong brought me here." Lu Xiaofeng walked to the door and began to knock on the door, "Brother Ye, I'm Lu Xiaofeng."

There was no response from inside, Lu Xiaofeng frowned, but Ximen Chuuxue had already broken in.

There was a dead person in the room, a person who was strangled to death, and this person was the Shengtong that Lu Xiaofeng mentioned just now.

Lu Xiaofeng frowned and pondered, "Ye Gucheng is not here, but he was strangled to death?"

Ximen Chuixue said, "You find it very strange."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "He can bring me here, and naturally he can also bring someone here. It's just that this is the second person I've seen who was strangled to death."

Ximen Chuixue said, "Who else?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Aunt Gongsun."

Ximen Chuixue said, "Did they die at the hands of one person?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Very likely." Then he sighed again, "It's just that I haven't found that clue yet."

Ximen Chuixue said, "What kind of clue?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Aunt Gongsun ordered someone to kill Mr. Sun to silence him, because he knew some secrets. Then I found Aunt Gongsun's body in the dense forest. Obviously she was also murdered to silence her. Afterwards, we came to Ye Gucheng. But Shengtong died, and died in the same way as Aunt Gongsun, there must be someone behind them instigating all this."

Ximen Chuixue said: "Then do you have any doubts?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Monk honestly."

Ximen Chuuxue was puzzled, "Why do you doubt him?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Because he told me that he came from Ouyang Qing's bed. As far as I know, Ouyang Qing is actually a virgin. From this, it can be seen that the honest monk is not honest. After breaking the embroidered thief, I found that the world There is an organization of all women called "Red Shoes", so is there a secret organization full of monks, and it is probably called White Socks!"

Ximen Chuuxue stared at Lu Xiaofeng, his eyes were straight, which made Lu Xiaofeng feel strange, finally Lu Xiaofeng couldn't stand such eyes, he asked: "Why are you staring at me?"

Ximen Chuuxue's expression was cold, and he said slowly: "I was thinking, why did I talk to you so much, and now I'm still standing here listening to your whims."

Lu Xiaofeng shouted: "You don't believe me?"

Ximen Chuixue said: "Do you believe it? Don't you think it's fantastic? Since Ye Gucheng is not here, I'll go back first."

"Wait, Ximen, I still need your help?" Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly called Ximen who was about to leave.

Ximen Chuixue said, "What's the matter?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Zhang Yingfeng died, he was killed by someone with a sword. Yan Renying and the others suspected that you killed him, so they found a master of the mysterious sword sect and two tantric lamas from the Water Peak of Our Lady in the frontier."

Ximen Chuuxue said: "Okay, I will help you, but the lama belongs to you."

Lu Xiaofeng had a headache, this was obviously Ximen's trouble, he had enough troubles now, and now he had to help him deal with the Lama.

Seeing Lu Xiaofeng's headache, Ximen Chuuxue smiled and said: "Who told you to be Lu Xiaofeng! I'm going back now, where can I find you tomorrow?"

At this time, Lu Xiaofeng also remembered the words of a certain evil star, so he also nodded and said: "I will go with you, and we will go to Quanfu Inn tomorrow."

On the second day, another person went there, and Han Mei extremely despised Lu Xiaofeng's ability to cause trouble, and said that she must follow them, otherwise A Xue would help Lu Xiaofeng solve troubles without her knowing.

For Han Mei's words, Lu Xiaofeng could only touch his nose helplessly. He was obviously the most innocent in this matter, but now he was said to be Ximen helping him solve the trouble!

Quanfu Inn is said to be the oldest and most prestigious inn in the capital. When they arrived, the staff told them, "Mr. Yan and the others left early in the morning, saying they were going to bury his senior brother."

Lu Xiaofeng asked: "Where did you go?

"Tianliang Altar."

The Tianliang Altar is the cremation place for the lamas. The herdsmen outside the border are all cremated by the lamas after they die. The custom has not changed after entering the customs.

Lu Xiaofeng explained the origin of the Tianliang Altar to the two of them, but he didn't expect that after entering, the smell inside would be so bad.There was an indescribable stench filling it.As soon as Han Mei approached, she felt a sense of nausea. Ximen Chuuxue Chuuxue had been paying attention to her, and when she noticed that her face suddenly turned pale, she asked urgently, "Meihua, what's wrong with you?"

Han Mei tried her best to suppress the nausea in her stomach, shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but the smell inside is too bad and makes me sick." As soon as she finished speaking, she covered her mouth and trotted outside for a few steps, then "Wow", I spit it out.

Ximen Chuuxue has been following her all the time, now seeing that she vomited up all her breakfast in the morning, she hastily led her out of the Tianliang Altar. "Is it better now?"

Han Mei took out a towel and wiped her mouth, stood outside and took a few deep breaths, feeling a little better, then said, "I'm not going in anymore, I'll just wait outside for you."

Ximen Chuuxue nodded, "That's fine, you should pay more attention outside." Seeing that the girl's face was slightly better, Ximen Chuuxue walked into the Tianliang Altar again.

Lu Xiaofeng stood in the main hall, looked at the corpses stuffed in the boxes full of the hall, and then looked at Ximen who had just followed, "What's wrong with her?"

Ximen Chuuxue frowned and walked into the hall, "The smell here is too bad, she can't bear it."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "There are few people in the world who would like the taste here, but the strange thing is that there are still people who are willing to wait here for us."

Following Lu Xiaofeng's words, a sneer suddenly came from the back of the hall: "So you have discovered us a long time ago." Then two lamas who were only wearing half yellow cassocks came out.They wore ghost masks on their faces, nine bronze rings on their exposed left arms, and one on their upper body, and even the weapons in their hands were also bronze rings.

Lu Xiaofeng smiled, "Fortunately, Han Mei didn't come in with us, otherwise I would have been frightened by these two lamas."

Ximen Chuuxue also laughed, "How did you guess that she would be frightened instead of killing them with a sword."

Lu Xiaofeng laughed and supported his forehead, "That's right, you still know her best."

Seeing that the two didn't take them seriously, one of the lamas said with a sinister smile, "You will stop laughing soon." After speaking, the copper ring shook, and the two lamas had already attacked.

At this time, the main hall was full of fights, but Han Mei, who was standing at the Tianliang Altar, met two people who should be inside, Yan Renying and Sun Xiuqing.

Yan Renying bowed to Hanmei and said, "Thank you for your mercy last time, but Ximen Chuuxue not only killed my master, but now also killed my senior brother. This hatred is irreconcilable!"

Han Mei looked at him, and said calmly: "A Xue didn't kill Zhang Yingfeng, he has been with me these days."

Yan Renying was taken aback, "Then who killed my brother?"

Han Mei said: "I don't know, but A Xue and Lu Xiaofeng are inside, you can go in and ask Lu Xiaofeng, maybe he knows something."

Yan Renying rushed in when he heard the words, but Sun Xiuqing behind him did stay where he was.

"Miss Sun, don't you want to go with me?" Han Mei has never had a good impression of this woman, Sun Xiuqing. She still remembers what this woman did, and she didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but the other party has been standing in front of her, wanting to speak again. Stop it, it's really an eyesore!
