[Lu Xiaofeng] Hidden Forest of Flowers and Leaves

In order to reach Daxue Mountain before the arrival of the next fifteenth day, everyone gave up riding in comfortable carriages and prepared to ride on the road.

In the early morning of the second day, the sun had not yet risen, and Dongting Township was in mist.In front of Hua's other courtyard, several horses have been prepared.Immediately carrying the things that everyone needed to keep out the cold, Fu Bo and Shao Yao stood aside with serious faces.Seeing everyone coming out, Uncle Fu immediately took a few steps forward and said, "Seventh Young Master, no matter how much this old slave says, it can't change your decision, can it?"

Hua Manlou nodded.

Fu Bo sighed, and handed over the reins of a black horse to Hua Manlou.

Peony was silent.

Han Ye felt very guilty and couldn't bear to see the two of them.Presumably Uncle Fu knew that everyone was going to Daxue Mountain, and he had persuaded Huamanlou for a long time.Hua Manlou has always been the most cherished youngest son of the Hua family, many people are worried about being away alone, but this time he has to take such a big risk again, no wonder Uncle Fu is uneasy.

But Han Yexin couldn't say any words of comfort.Because this is what started because of him.Maybe in Forber's eyes, he is always an outsider.He dared not go to see Fu Bo and Shao Yao, always feeling that they were silently blaming him.

Everyone got on their horses, Hua Manlou said: "Uncle Fu, once I go, the family will be entrusted to you to take care of."

Uncle Fu bowed and saluted: "Don't worry, Seventh Young Master. I wish the young masters a smooth journey and go back early."

Several people turned the horse's head around, Lu Xiaofeng pointed at the whip, and said: "It's getting late, let's go!" When the sound of the whip fell, the bay red horse he was riding immediately started to run.

These horses ran extremely fast, and they had already run a hundred paces in a short while.Han Yexin turned her head, and could still see Uncle Fu and Shaoyao standing at the gate of the other courtyard from a distance, watching everyone leave.

The four horses started with Lu Xiaofeng in the lead, Han Yexin and Hua Manlou in the middle, and the order after Sikong Zaixing was broken, galloped all the way without stopping.On the way, I encountered beautiful flowers and beautiful scenery, tea houses and restaurants, but I didn't stop at any of them.Lu Xiaofeng and Sikong Zaixing are used to staying in the rivers and lakes, so it's nothing.It was the first time for Han Yexin and Hua Manlou to travel in this way, so they were a little tired along the way.

But along the way, the two of them didn't say anything, and they didn't speak to each other. I don't know if they were angry at each other, or they were gritting their teeth.

It was almost noon, passing a pear blossom forest.Lu Xiaofeng stopped the horse's head, said: "The scenery here is good, let's rest here for a while."

Everyone got off their horses, tied the horses to the books, took out the dry food, sat down on the ground and ate.

In this pear blossom forest, the pear blossoms turned into snow, falling down one by one.Lu Xiaofeng raised the water bottle to drink water, Hua Manlou took the dry food and put it into his mouth.That Sikong Zhaixing moved his ears, biting a piece of beef jerky.Han Yexin's hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword.

Suddenly, all of Lu Xiaofeng's mouthful of water spewed out, and the water shot towards Han Yexin like a swift arrow.The sword in Han Yexin's hand had only been pulled out an inch, when he heard a scream, a person fell in front of him and was injured by the water arrow.

Sikong Zhaixing stepped forward, stepped on the man's back, Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou had already taken their positions, and said to Li Hualin: "My friends, please show up and talk!"

Unexpectedly, the captured man tilted his head, and a red line spread out from his mouth. Han Yexin stretched out his hand to probe, and said coldly, "It's a dead man!"

Everyone frowned.In fact, they had already expected to encounter an ambush on the road, but they didn't expect to encounter dead soldiers at the beginning.

Since he is a dead man, he must not give up until he achieves his goal.

Sikong Zhaixing spat and kicked the man over.Several people stood in their positions, took care of each other, and looked at the pear blossom forest.

The pear blossom forest was dead silent.

There is a wind blowing through the pear blossom forest.The pear blossoms are flying and falling like snow.Hua Manlou listened attentively, and suddenly opened the folding fan and moved forward.Hearing the sound of metal colliding, arrows shot out like rain from the pear blossom forest!

Lu Xiaofeng's consonant finger pointed, the arrows were cut off by his two fingers one after another; Huamanlou's fan collided with the iron arrows, sparks were sparked, but none of them could fly behind him.Sikong Zhaixing is like a long smoke, with a ghostly figure, wandering around, he has already held a lot of iron arrows in his hand.

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou had already judged the location where the archer was hiding, they all stood up and disappeared into the forest like swift shadows.Only listening to the continuous screams coming from all directions in the forest.

Han Yexin swung his sword to block the rain of arrows and listened intently to the movement in the forest.

Suddenly, Sikong Zaixing, Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou all disappeared beside him.

Han Yexin stood quietly and closed his eyes.He could feel every breath of wind in the woods.When finally a trace of murderous intent appeared around him, he opened his eyes.

In front of him was a man in white with a mask.

White clothes can be well integrated into the pear blossom forest.When the man saw him open his eyes, the eyes behind the mask showed a slight surprise.

"You are very talented as a killer," said the masked man in white.

Han Yexin's long sword was hanging by his hand, and he said lightly, "Thank you for the compliment."

"It's a pity..." The voice of the man in white was actually full of pity: "It's a pity no matter what."

He raised the sword in his hand.

"I really want to take in an apprentice. If I met you earlier, maybe I can still have the fate of master and apprentice."

At the same time as he said this, the sword came across diagonally from above.Wipe it directly on Han Yexin's neck.Han Yexin raised his right hand, and extended his thumb and index finger together, holding the sword firmly.

The eyes of the masked man in white were very surprised.

Han Yexin finally showed a smile.

"Do you think I haven't learned anything in these years?"

Lu Xiaofeng has never been a stingy person to his friends.What's more, he has always claimed that there is no special knack for "One Finger of Consonance", it only depends on the determination and perseverance of the practitioner.

It is precisely because he knows this trick that Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou can leave him here alone with peace of mind.

And this is exactly the "trap" they have prepared.

Han Yexin grasped the long sword with "one finger of consonance", and quickly pinched the man's jaw with the other hand to remove his jaw, so as not to commit suicide by taking poison.

There was a sly smile in the man's eyes, and his left hand was like lightning, and a dagger had already been sent into Han Ye's heart.

Han Yexin only felt a pain in his stomach, and at the same time, his hands had already removed the man's jaw.At this time, a person came rushing like the wind, and the shop owner touched the acupoints of the masked man in white.

Han Yexin took a few steps back clutching his stomach, beads of sweat oozing from his face.

But it happened to retreat to one person.

Hua ManLou supports him.

Han Yexin turned her head and smiled sadly: "Qitong, it really hurts."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pulled out the dagger.

Lu Xiaofeng took off the man's mask, and saw that man was looking at Han Yexin with a surprised expression on his face.Lu Xiaofeng played with the mask, walked around this person a few times, and saw that this person had a very ordinary face.

Sikong Zhaixing said: "This is really a good face!"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "How about it?"

"With this face shape, it's not difficult to become anyone!"

Since it was the words of Master Yirong Sikong Zaixing, Lu Xiaofeng could only nod in conviction.

Sikong Zhaixing immediately circled around this person.

Over there, Hua Manlou supported Han Yexin to sit down slowly, let him lean in his arms, and stretched out his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead.The dagger was pulled out and thrown on the ground, with a cold light shining faintly.

Han Yexin unbuttoned his clothes and saw that the dagger had made a dent in his abdomen, and his body was in excruciating pain.

"Qitong, this celestial silk armor needs to be improved, but it still hurts when you poke it."

Hua Manlou smiled: "I said earlier that when using this dress, you need to mobilize your internal energy. If you make your whole body as hard as iron, you will get twice the result with half the effort."

"If I had known this before, I should have practiced the golden bell cover iron shirt."

"Do you think you can do it by practicing?"

Han Yexin said: "Then let me rely on you." Hua Manlou stretched out his hand and touched under the silk armor for a while, knowing that there was nothing serious, he let Han Yexin lean on him to endure the pain.

Because Han Yexin had his chin removed and Lu Xiaofeng had his acupuncture points tapped, the man couldn't move, and after being tortured by Sikong Zhaixing for a while, he unexpectedly showed another face.

Sikong Zhaixing looked at the disguised mask that had been removed, he was overjoyed, clapped his hands and said: "Sure enough, I can't hide any disguise from me!" Lu Xiaofeng looked at this face, but fell silent.

Sikong Zhaixing said: "Lu Xiaofeng, do you know this person?"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded: "Not only do we know each other, we even had a drink together."

"Who is he?"

"The seven-pocket disciple of the beggar gang, the favorite apprentice of the elders of the beggar gang, and it is said that he will take over the position of the elder."

Only then did Sikong Zhaixing look at the man's original face.I saw that this man was extremely young and handsome, he could be regarded as having sword eyebrows and star eyes, if it wasn't for the ugly chin that was removed, he might have been regarded as the most handsome man in the Jianghu.

Sikong Zhaixing said: "So, doesn't he have a great future?"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded.

"Then why do you want to do such a risky thing?"

"The disciples of the elders of the beggar gang are not as real as the successors of the master of the beggar gang."

Hearing what Lu Xiaofeng said, that person's eyes flashed with anger.

Lu Xiaofeng pushed his chin with his hand, and connected to the man's chin.Sikong Zhaixing was shocked, and said: "Aren't you afraid that he will take poison?"

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head: "Such a person, who claims to be the pride of heaven, would take poison like a penniless dead man?"

As expected, the man was even more angry, staring at Lu Xiaofeng, he moved his throat, and finally spoke.

"Lu Xiaofeng, you are a smart person, why bother to get into this troubled water?"

Lu Xiaofeng stared at him: "Jiang Donglin, you are also a smart person, why did you do the assassination in disguise?"

Jiang Donglin smiled: "You said that the position of the successor of the leader is always more real than that of the disciple of the elder."

"But even if you kill Han Yexin, you may not be able to get this position?"

Jiang Donglin laughed loudly: "Lu Xiaofeng, I haven't seen you for a few months, you must not know what happened in Jianghu!"

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head in surprise.

"Go and see, the person who was knocked down by your acupoints just now is still alive?"

Hearing this, Sikong Zhaixing slid like smoke towards the pear blossom forest.After a while, he came out with a pale face and said, "Those people are all dead."

Hearing this, everyone except Jiang Donglin was shocked.

Lu Xiaofeng squatted down and carefully examined the body of the man just now.The more he checked, the colder his face became.

"Who are they?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.

"If you don't complete the mission, you will die. Lu Xiaofeng, tell yourself, who are they?"

"The killer. The killer in Tsing Yi Building."

Jiang Donglin nodded: "Originally, if I failed, it would be a dead end. You must have known that people in the forest cannot commit suicide, and someone else killed them. And this person is the killer of Tsingyi Building."

Lu Xiaofeng said in amazement: "I didn't expect the Beggars' Clan to be able to do this."

Jiang Donglin nodded: "Our elders directly said that whoever completes this task will be the next gang leader."

He glanced at Lu Xiaofeng: "As for me, when it comes to fame and wealth, I always like to obtain it by myself. I thought it was safe...I didn't expect that I underestimated you."

Lu Xiaofeng put his hands behind his back, his expression was very ugly.

Jiang Donglin looked at him, but laughed again: "The news of my failure must have spread. Lu Xiaofeng, as a friend, I will tell you another good news."

He looked at Han Yexin: "The name of your friend will be illuminated by the lanterns of Qingyi Building tonight."
