Cannon Fodder Collection [Comprehensive]

The disguise that Lin Ning is talking about here means wearing a disguise mask.

Instead of modifying the original appearance, just like the previous Layman Gusong dyed his hair and slightly shaved his face.

When Lin Ning and Lu Xiaofeng said this, she didn't need to say more, Lu Xiaofeng realized the crux of the problem:

You must know that Song Wencao has been in Hua's house for 15 years, but he has been wearing a disguise mask for so many years. This is no longer as simple as forbearance.After all, Yi Rong's mask can never be compared with the original skin of a person. It needs real-time attention to maintenance, just like clothes. It is impossible for a person to wear only one piece of clothing for many years without changing and cleaning, but Yi Rong's mask can be compared Clothes are much more "delicate".

From this point alone, it can be seen that Song Wencao has much perseverance.

And if he can do this, it means that either he can't see people with his original identity, or he wants something else, or both.

After Lu Xiaofeng figured it out, he looked up at Lin Ning: "Do you know anything else?"

Lin Ning looked calm: "How do you say that?"

Lu Xiaofeng didn't answer but instead asked: "Have you seen the monkey spirit?" Otherwise, he wouldn't have just seen him and Hua Manlou and asked if he was talking about her rebellion and abandonment.

Lin Ning didn't need him to point it out, he just said what he said: "Speaking of which, I didn't know what he was planning behind my back, but I didn't say anything, he said everything himself."

"That idiot." Lu Xiaofeng shook his head and said, and then returned to the original topic, "I heard from your tone, you think Song Wencao has other motives, not because he has no other reasons and is forced to hide his name like this, so I just wanted to ask if you knew something beforehand."

Lin Ning asked him back, "You too?"

Lu Xiaofeng really is.

It turned out that Zhu Ting gave him a wine bottle a few days ago. The strange thing is that he and Zhu Ting haven't spoken a word since the last counterfeit banknote case, and the wine bottle was still filled with a bottle of vinegar. Lu Xiaofeng immediately realized something was wrong, and went to find Zhu Ting, only to find that Zhu Ting was imprisoned.

What's even more strange is that Zhu Ting's wife, the proprietress, also disappeared.

This is the mechanism where someone kidnapped the proprietress to threaten Zhu Ting and let him tell about the secret room he built for the Hua family.

Zhu Ting was a person who kept his promise, he only told half of the agency about that person, and because he was worried about the proprietress, he asked Lu Xiaofeng to come out to help him settle the matter, so Lu Xiaofeng, who was wandering around, didn't receive the invitation, but came Peach Blossom Castle celebrates Hua Ruling's birthday.

After Lu Xiaofeng finished speaking, he asked Lin Ning: "What about you? What did you hear from the monkey spirit?"

Lin Ning said, "It has nothing to do with Sikong Zhaixing."

Lu Xiaofeng asked curiously: "Who is that?"

Lin Ning didn't continue because Hua Manlou came back.

Lu Xiaofeng also pretended nothing happened, and only gave Lin Ning a wink, indicating that they will talk about it later.Soon Lu Xiaofeng came to the guest house that Huamanlou told the butler to arrange for Lin Ning alone, and continued talking with her about the topics he hadn't finished talking about before.

Lin Ning told her about her source of information.

Yes, Lu Xiaofeng was not too surprised that the Six Doors came to find him. You can't take things superficially. Besides, when he mentioned Lin Ning before the headhunters of the "Flying Dragon and Iron Horse" who came from the Six Doors, they didn't show any signs of it. He was resentful, but his expression was very tangled. At that time, he felt that their attitude was a bit strange.

Back to business, Lu Xiaofeng pinched his mustache and said, "According to what you said, Song Wencao is very likely to be the Iron Shoes Bandit. Then he will play such a play with Master Zhuhua this time. He wanted to take the opportunity to steal the Jade Buddha of the Han Sea, but he is usually with Master Hua, if he leaves rashly this time, it will definitely attract the attention of others. Wait, he has an accomplice."

Lu Xiaofeng clapped his hands and said: "Imprisoning Zhu Ting and kidnapping the proprietress, this can't be done overnight." Especially Song Wencao has stayed in Peach Blossom Castle all year round, in order not to arouse other people's suspicion, he is unlikely to go out of Peach Blossom Castle alone to do it this matter.

Lin Ning said in a calm manner: "There is a group of people from the Hanhai Kingdom in the Western Regions, saying that it was sent by the King of Hanhai to celebrate Master Hua's birthday. The martial arts people who celebrated Master Hua's birthday are not so many people who participated in such a play, so I think they must have a second plan to ensure that no one else will do bad things."

Lu Xiaofeng was thoughtful: "Since Song Wencao is proficient in pharmacology, it is very likely that he will start from this aspect."

Lin Ning continued: "Or create chaos, but in any case, in his plan, the time to do it should be when you are performing such a play, otherwise why would he have to plan so long."

All these speculations are reasonable, Lu Xiaofeng spread his hands and said, "It's just our speculation, we don't have any substantive evidence yet."

Lin Ning: "This one?"

Now that there is a suspect, it is time to conduct an in-depth investigation against him.

Lin Ning immediately called a servant from the Hua family to come in.

The servant of the Hua family lowered his eyebrows and waited for the order of the distinguished guest.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't pay much attention at first, but then he thought of something, and pretended to say to Lin Ning: "You don't know how the monkey spirit arranges you behind the scenes, as I said, when you see him next time, you Don't be rude to him."

Before Lin Ning could say anything, the servants of the Hua family jumped up and said, "Well, you Lu Xiaofeng, didn't you hear it very pleasantly at the time? Now I want to cross the river and tear down the bridge, you!"

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

How thick-skinned Lu Xiaofeng is, he quickly pretended that he didn't hear this sentence, pointed at the 'Hua family servant' and said: "I knew it was you, I smelled a thief from far away."

Lin Ning said calmly, "Then do you smell the thief smell from Song Wencao's body, Daxia Lu?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

Sikong Zhaixing laughed unceremoniously.

Lin Ning also glanced at him.

Sikong Zhaixing: "..."

Speaking of which, Sikong Zhaixing was called by Lin Ning, so he just pretended to be a servant of the Hua family, and entered the Peach Blossom Castle in a fair manner. Now it's his turn to shine, and Lin Ning is still very optimistic about him.

Hua Ruling passed her [-]th birthday, and many people came to celebrate.

The Hua family specially built the Ziwei Pavilion to entertain guests, and it was very noisy.

Lin Ning and Lu Xiaofeng were arranged on the main table, next to Huamanlou, and besides Hua Ruling, the birthday star, there were Zen Master Dabei, Eagle Eye Laoqi, Wudang master Shi Yan, Hunan hero Wu Shan Yun, Guan Tiangao from the Diancang School, Song Wencao and others.

Needless to say, delicious food, there are also wines and wines brought by the birthday team of the Hanhai Kingdom in the Western Regions. In addition, the birthday team also brought their own country's singing and dancing to add to the fun.

Lu Xiaofeng glanced at Lin Ning, Lin Ning didn't move his eyebrows, he just brought a glass of wine to his lips.

Lu Xiaofeng went to use his peripheral vision to scan Song Wencao, and saw that he also looked towards them.

Lin Ning was about to drink the fragrant wine from the Western Regions, but he put down his cup at a critical moment.

Song Wencao couldn't help but raise his heart.

Lin Ning just turned to look at Hua Manlou next to him: "Brother Hua, do you have something on your mind?"

Lu Xiaofeng followed suit and said: "Look at this place full of guests, there is wine and meat on the table, it's a proud moment in life, but you don't have the slightest intention of drinking to your heart's content, whether it's something on your mind or why?"

Lin Ning followed and said, "Exactly, why are you dissatisfied with drinking this cup?"

Hua Manlou was not intimidated by the two of them singing together, he blocked his glass: "This wine from the Western Regions has a pungent spice smell."

"Is there? I can only smell the mellow wine." Lu Xiaofeng drank a glass as he spoke, and then he did not forget to greet Lin Ning, "Brother Lin, let's have a drink."

Lin Ning said again: "I am too strong to drink."

Lu Xiaofeng was laughing like crazy in his heart, but his face was still tense: "Just drink one drink."

"Okay then." As she said that, she tilted her neck and drank a glass of wine. Lu Xiaofeng thought it was right, but Hua Manlou still refused. He always felt that the Iron Shoes Bandit must be a bad person this time, and the wine was indeed Not quite right.Thinking of this, Hua Manlou subconsciously frowned. If Lu Xiaofeng, a person who is addicted to alcohol, ignores his reminders, it is very in line with his character that he is always drunk, but Lin Ning is not. Such an extremely free and easy personality, and more importantly, her nose is also exceptionally sharp, but she did not reveal that she also smelled that pungent spice smell.

Could it be that he was thinking too much?

Lin Ning could only pretend that she didn't notice Hua Manlou's thoughtful expression. She put down her wine glass, exchanged an understanding look with Lu Xiaofeng, and quickly turned her gaze away to the person who came to Hanhai Kingdom this time. On the birthday party.The team leader was a man and a woman. They performed performances to add to the fun, but just looking at their inadvertent bodies, their delicate and fair skin, and their unworn palms, they didn't look like hard-working low-level people.

Furthermore, as the accomplices of the Iron Shoes Thief, their identities are destined to be not that simple.

More importantly, Lin Ning asked someone to inquire about the Peacock Prince of Hanhai Kingdom.She still has an extremely powerful informant in the Western Regions. According to the reply from that incredible informant, it can be known that Prince Peacock's concubine is from the Central Plains.Not only that, the peacock prince and princess have not been seen in public for several days.

This is very intriguing.

By the time the noisy banquet ended, it was already the top of willows on the moon.

According to Lu Xiaofeng and the others' plan, they cooperated with each other to perform the play that untie Huamanlou's knots, and it will be staged in half an hour.They had checked the script once before, but before the final start, Hua Ruling still had to tell Lu Xiaofeng to wrap their Hua family's heirloom armor Xuesi with Lu Xiaofeng by the way—Hua Manlou didn't want to stab him with a sword. To die of the "Iron Shoes Thief", Lu Xiaofeng must have a treasure armor to protect himself, and this snow silk wrap has also been soaked in Song Wencao's medicinal herbs, which can definitely keep Lu Xiaofeng intact in the end.

Lu Xiaofeng glanced at Song Wencao, and Song Wencao showed him a simple and honest smile.

Lu Xiaofeng: "Tsk tsk. '

Next, Lu Xiaofeng took off his outer shirt, and Song Wencao helped put on the snow silk wrap.Song Wencao tied the knot skillfully, and then gave Lu Xiaofeng a zombie mask, which was one of the symbols of the Iron Shoes Bandit.

Lu Xiaofeng said calmly: "The flowers are all over the building and you can't see them, so don't worry about it."

Song Wencao chuckled and said, "No, maybe he can touch your face, it must be perfect."

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."

Next, they only need to wait until the time is up before they can go on stage, but how could they expect that Hua Ruling and Song Wencao would sit down in a room in the courtyard they had chosen just before the time they agreed on? down.Hua Ruling finally calmed down, Song Wencao was relieved to see him like this, and comforted him a few more words, but he didn't expect that Eagle Eye Lao Qi and Wudang master Shi Yan walked in together.

Hua Ruling was taken aback: "What about the two of you?"

Song Wencao was also surprised, the two of them were supposed to wait in the room for the iron shoe thief played by Lu Xiaofeng to come to the door.

Eagle-eyed Seventh also hesitated: "Hero Hua, I want to ask if you have arranged any provocative scenes?"

Hua Ruling hurriedly said: "No, what happened?"

"Then what do you think this is?" Hawkeye Lao Qi showed a piece of cloth in his hand, Hua Ruling only took a look, and immediately turned pale with shock.

"This!"

Soon other people were called over, even Lu Xiaofeng who was about to pretend to be the Iron Shoes Bandit was no exception.Hua Manlou realized the serious atmosphere in the hall, and immediately asked, "Father, what happened?"

Hua Ruling said in a deep voice: "Qitong, didn't you tell dad before that you thought the Iron Shoes Bandit was not dead? Dad didn't believe it at the time, but this time it looks like dad may have made a mistake on you."

It turned out that Eagle-eyed Lao Qi and Shi Yan were in the arranged room, waiting for the iron-shoe thief played by Lu Xiaofeng to come over. They tried a few tricks, but before the appointed time, they waited for a man wearing iron shoes and head Shoe Bandit wearing a zombie mask.At first they thought it was Lu Xiaofeng, and they wondered why he came so early, but soon they realized that it couldn't be Lu Xiaofeng, because he was really with them, and his moves were ruthless.

Eagle Eye Seventh shouted at that time: "You are not Lu Xiaofeng, who are you?"

The iron shoe thief said in a cold voice that seemed to come from hell: "Hehe, you haven't seen me for many years, so you don't recognize me?"

After finishing speaking, he left a piece of cloth, avoiding the tricks of Hawkeye Lao Qi and Shi Yan.

The piece of cloth was infused with true energy, and went straight into the table an inch. Eagle Eye Lao Qi and Shi Yan managed to get it off. When they saw the bloody shoe prints of the iron shoe thief on it, they thought of the person just now. The dress and tone, the two immediately realized something was wrong.I didn't care about other things, so I went to Hua Ruling, and showed Hua Ruling the provocative book. There were not only bloody shoe prints on it, but also a few sentences, which were written against Hua Ruling, saying that only the He caught his son's eyes, and this time he decided to bring Huamanlou to the King of Hades under his nose.

For so many years, outsiders have always believed that Hua Manlou lost his sight due to illness. Except for a few martial arts masters who hunted down the iron shoe thief, few other people knew about it.When the two sides were combined, even Hua Ruling no longer doubted it, and believed that the iron shoe thief had returned from the underworld.

Song Wencao: "?!!" Huh?He is standing here?

Lu Xiaofeng raised doubts: "How is this possible? Wasn't the iron shoe thief killed by the joint efforts of the seniors?"

Hua Ruling sighed: "Nephew, you don't know that the iron shoe thief's whereabouts are ghostly. It's not unreasonable to say that he is the reincarnation of the evil star." The iron shoe thief, and watched him be buried, and now this person appeared like a ghost again, how could they not let them think too much.

Hua Manlou said solemnly, "Iron Shoes is not dead."

At this time, Lu Xiaofeng stood up and said: "No matter how he survived by chance, this time there are so many of us, how can we let him escape again? Uncle Hua, can I read that provocative letter?"

Hua Ruling handed it to him.

Lu Xiaofeng read it carefully: "In addition to saying that it will be detrimental to Huamanlou, it also mentioned that he has to complete the unfinished business of last time when he comes this time. What does this unfinished business refer to?"

Most of the others were puzzled, but Hua Ruling suddenly remembered something, and her expression changed.

The Zen Master Dabei at the side also realized something, and he leaned over to whisper something to Hua Ruling.

Hua Ruling nodded sadly.

Zen Master Dabei clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, sin is sin."

The impatient eagle-eyed old seven said: "What kind of charades are you two playing?"

Xiangxi hero Wu Shanyun also said: "What time is this, you two are still playing charades."

Lu Xiaofeng also said: "Uncle Hua, if you have something to say, just say it."

Hua Manlou called Dad, Hua Ruling was so soft-hearted when he heard it, and couldn't care about other things, so he talked about the Hanhai Jade Buddha.This matter is a secret, and only few people know about it. As for how Zen Master Dabei knew about this matter, I will not reveal it, but the iron shoe thief did break into Peach Blossom Castle back then, and found the treasure hidden in his house. Even fewer people know about the secret room of the Hanhai Jade Buddha.

And at the beginning, Xiao Huamanlou broke into the secret room by mistake and ran into the iron shoe thief who was fighting with Hua Ruling. Then he saw the true face of the iron shoe thief, and was blinded by the iron shoe thief.

Now that Hua Ruling mentioned the Jade Buddha of the Vast Sea, the people present were deep in thought, Lu Xiaofeng said abruptly: "Could this be the trick of this iron shoe thief? He wants to make a fool of himself."

Hua Ruling asked, "What does nephew mean?"

Lu Xiaofeng said in a deep voice: "The iron shoe thief used this plausible provocative letter to gather us together, and he became suspicious because of it, but he himself is very likely to take advantage of this to steal the Jade Buddha of the Vast Sea! As a result, everyone has also seen it. , we are all gathered here, even if there is any movement elsewhere, we are afraid that we will not be able to distract ourselves and hear it."

Hua Ruling: "This!"

Lu Xiaofeng persisted and said: "In my opinion, it's better for us to go and see if the Jade Buddha of the Vast Sea is safe."

Eagle-eyed Seventh was filled with righteous indignation: "Indeed, the Jade Buddha has a lot to do with it after all! Besides, we might be able to catch him, but I still don't believe that he is really the reincarnation of some evil star!"

Song Wencao hurriedly said: "But we watched the iron shoe thief be buried, maybe someone used the name of the iron shoe thief this time." Not maybe, but definitely!

"No, this is him!" Hua Ruling said in a sad tone. Huamanlou was murdered in front of his eyes, which was always a hurdle in his heart, and he still didn't believe Huamanlou said that the iron shoe thief was not dead. This time, he felt guilty and uneasy. No matter what he said this time, he could not let the iron shoe thief have another chance to escape, so he said with a final word: "Let's go to the secret room."

Others chimed in.

Song Wencao: "!!"

What made Song Wencao even more uneasy was that Lu Xiaofeng said that he was going to invite Lin Ning over while walking halfway.Before, they all knew that Lin Ning was too strong to drink, and after only one glass of wine, he became intoxicated. I think it’s about the same time.”

Song Wencao: "...!"

Before Song Wencao had time to say anything, Lu Xiaofeng flew away, and he had no chance to slip away, so he was caught among a group of martial arts masters and went to the secret room where the Hanhai Jade Buddha was placed.

To be honest, he is now more confused than terrified.

In his plan, there is no such a fake iron shoe thief.The original plan was for Lu Xiaofeng to pretend to be a bandit in iron shoes and ask Hua Manlou to assassinate him, but he had already prepared his hands and feet on the snow silk wrap, when Hua Manlou stabbed Lu Xiaofeng in the back of the heart with a sword, stabbing him to death To put it bluntly, this incident was enough to cause chaos, and it happened that the Peacock Prince and Princess took the opportunity to steal the Jade Buddha of the Han Sea, and he himself was in sight of them from the beginning to the end, so naturally there would be no suspicion.

Of course, he has other tricks, but this trick is still based on this acting.Now that the play was disrupted by the iron shoe robbers who suddenly entered, it would naturally not work, and his plan would have no room for execution!

And if it wasn't him who was the Iron Shoe Thief, then he would almost have to believe this intrusive Iron Shoe Thief.

In the end what happened?

Song Wencao had to hope that the concubine who pretended to be an iron shoe thief to steal the Jade Buddha of the Han Sea had already got it, so she wouldn't be caught by them.

It's a pity that the time difference was so bad that when everyone came to the entrance of the secret cave, they happened to collide with the iron shoe thief who came out of it.

Iron Shoes Bandit: "!"

Lu Xiaofeng was the first to yell: "Well, you iron shoe thief, you really want to make a fool of yourself!"

Iron Shoes Thief: "??"

Lin Ning, who was drunk and sobered up quickly, still wanted to give Lu Xiaofeng a thumbs up, and watch him play a full set of plays.Infected by Lu Xiaofeng's professionalism, Lin Ning also cooperated with each other, holding her dragon sword horizontally in front of her body: "Iron Shoes Bandit, please." Speaking of which, she is no stranger to the appearance of Iron Shoes Bandit , after all, it has been played once before.

Iron Shoes Thief: "!!"

Song Wencao: "!!"

Is this different from what we said?
