Snake King's subordinates are very capable and efficient.

In the afternoon of the next day, he sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that he had investigated the whereabouts of Mrs. Gongsun.

As soon as they heard that things were progressing so quickly, the three of them packed up quickly after finishing their lunch, and followed the messenger to the Snake King.

But when they saw the Snake King, they didn't hear from Gongsun Lan. Even if Lu Xiaofeng asked, the Snake King talked about him and refused to say anything.

The Snake King's appearance is completely different from the boldness before, and anyone can see that something is wrong with him.

But he is Lu Xiaofeng's friend after all, in the past whenever Lu Xiaofeng needed his help, he would always do his best without hesitation, but this time...

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help feeling worried.

The sky outside turned from bright to dark, and the anxious expression on the Snake King's face became more and more obvious, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't bear it anymore.

He put down the wine glass in his hand, and asked with a serious face: "Snake King, what happened, and what news about Aunt Gongsun are you talking about?"

From afternoon to night, the Snake King didn't say anything, but insisted on dragging them to drink, this was simply too abnormal, even if Lu Xiaofeng was a fool, he should have noticed the problem.

The already stiff smile on Snake King's face froze completely. After a long silence, he finally spoke in a hoarse voice: "You have enough troubles yourself, so don't bother with other people's business anymore." .”

"What do you mean?" Unexpectedly, the Snake King would say such words, Lu Xiaofeng frowned, "Don't tell me you want to deal with Aunt Gongsun by yourself?"

The Snake King didn't answer, but judging by his expression, it was clear that he had already acquiesced to Lu Xiaofeng's words.

Seeing this old friend's appearance, Lu Xiaofeng sneered, but his words could not conceal his concern, "But don't forget, you have been ill for more than ten years, if you go now, it will only be It's to die!"

After saying these words, Lu Xiaofeng looked at the Snake King's almost collapsed expression, sighed, stepped forward to hold the Snake King's hand, and continued: "We are friends, no matter what, I don't want to see you die in the hands of that person, I don't even want to see the person who made you like this live in the world with ease."

"Lu Xiaofeng is right." Hua Manlou, who had been silent all this time, showed a faint smile. His smile seemed to have some kind of effect, which could easily calm people's hearts. "We will all help."

The room fell into silence again, until Lu Xiaofeng wanted to speak again to persuade, the Snake King took out a crumpled piece of paper from his arms, and handed it to Lu Xiaofeng's eyes.

"This is?"

"This is from Aunt Gongsun." When the name was mentioned, there was still hatred in the Snake King's voice, "She asked me to meet in the West Garden tonight."

Lu Xiaofeng looked out of the window, it was already dusk, and the appointed time was coming soon.

He got up quickly and said to Hua Manlou and Su Mier, "Let's go quickly."

The Snake King looked at them quietly, but when they were about to reach the door, he suddenly stopped them: "Wait a minute."

"What's wrong?" Lu Xiaofeng turned around suspiciously.

"You..." Snake King's lips opened and closed a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it for some reason, "You must be careful..."

In the end, he didn't say what to be careful of, but deep guilt and sadness appeared in his eyes.

This look!

Su Mier's heart trembled.

Could it be that there is something wrong with the news that Gongsun Lan is in the West Garden?

Lu Xiaofeng was going to the West Garden to look for Gongsun Lan, so he and Huamanlou would naturally follow, if there was any trap...it was about Huamanlou's safety, Su Mier would not dare to be careless at all.

"Be careful of what?"

Originally because he had betrayed his friends for the sake of more than 900 brothers under him, the Snake King, who was contradictory and self-blaming, was in a trance. Hearing Su Mier's question suddenly, a name that had been lingering in his mouth blurted out just like that.

"Jin Jiuling?" Lu Xiaofeng, who was about to rush to the West Garden, stopped when he heard the name and turned around, "What's going on here?"

Now that the most important things have been said, the Snake King did not continue to hide.

It turned out that he had been investigating Aunt Gongsun all these years in order to avenge his wife and children, but he was discovered by Jin Jiuling for some reason. A few days ago, Jin Jiuling threatened him with the lives of [-] brothers under him, and asked him to lure Lu Xiaofeng on the night of the full moon. He went to the West Garden, but he didn't want his brothers to die because of this, and he didn't want to betray Lu Xiaofeng, so he wanted to hold Lu Xiaofeng first, and then save the others by dying.

It's just that he didn't expect that instead of being drunk by him, Lu Xiaofeng was extremely determined to help him take revenge.

"Jin Jiuling! He actually..." Lu Xiaofeng gritted his teeth, his voice was a little erratic.

For so many years, he has always regarded Jin Jiuling as a good friend, but he never thought that his friend would do such an outrageous thing.

Not only him, but even Hua Manlou and Su Mier couldn't believe it.

And if it was true what the Snake King said, then Jin Jiuling would definitely not let the Snake King go, maybe Jin Jiuling would kill them as soon as they left, but if they stayed here, what would Aunt Gongsun of the West Garden do?

Just when Lu Xiaofeng was in trouble, Hua Manlou suddenly said to him: "It's better for you to stay here, and Su Mier and I will go to the West Garden together."

This is indeed a good way.

Both Huamanlou and Su Mier's martial arts are not bad, the two of them together are indeed more than enough to deal with a Gongsun aunt, and here, Lu Xiaofeng does not think that he will lose to Jin Jiuling.

Without much thought, Lu Xiaofeng nodded his head repeatedly.

Needless to say, Su Mier, but he never refused to agree to anything Hua Manlou said. Besides, he also wanted to meet Gongsun Lan for a while to see what she was capable of.

"Very good, it's a happy decision." Seeing that the plan was well arranged, Lu Xiaofeng clapped his hands with a smile.

"Wait a minute." Hua Manlou still had something to say, "There are so many people in the West Garden, how can we know which one is the real Gongsun Lan?"

Su Mier also felt that this was an important question. He thought for a while and said, "If it's disguised, I can see it, but not everyone who disguised themselves is Gongsun Lan."

"It's very simple." The Snake King has investigated Gongsun Lan for many years, and naturally knows a lot more than others. "Although she is proficient in disguise and rarely shows her true face, she has a problem. As long as you know her problem, You must be able to recognize her."

He said slowly and word by word: "The shoes she wears are always the same. No matter what clothes she wears, she will always wear a pair of bright red embroidered shoes like those worn by brides, but the embroidered ones are not mandarin ducks. It's an owl."

Coincidentally, the West Garden was the place where Huamanlou and Su Mier had a sweet date last night.

It was still under the wedding tree that was a good omen, but tonight instead of doing something romantic and lingering according to the situation, they had to observe the shoes on the skirts of passing women one by one. This kind of contrast is not insignificant.

Because Huamanlou couldn't see it, the task of finding Gongsun Lan naturally fell on Su Mier's head.

"I'm already regretting taking this job." Hua Manlou suddenly smiled wryly, as if he was very upset.

"Hey? Why?"

Su Mier's eyesight is very good, he can see the shoes of every girl passing by clearly, but after such a long time, he has seen a lot of people wearing red shoes, but not a single one with owls embroidered on the red shoes No.

However, because he only focused on looking at other people's shoes, he didn't realize that he and Hua Manlou, who were outstanding in appearance, were also the targets of girls secretly peeping at them.

It would be better for Hua Manlou not to look sideways, but Su Mier's eyes had to follow one girl after another back and forth.

Delicately crafted deep contours, exquisite facial features, mandarin duck eyes that are more beautiful than gemstones under the fan-like thick and curled eyelashes, and slightly curly silver hair with a faint luster like silk under the moonlight, and a wide-open neckline The ivory chest exposed between...

Although the appearance is quite different from that of the Central Plains people, this exotic style is completely attractive.

The gaze that had been constantly drifting towards Su Mier became more and more presumptuous when he noticed that Su Mier was looking back at them, and his expression became more and more ugly.

So many explicit eyes fell on her lover, no matter how good-tempered she was, she couldn't bear it. Hua Manlou took a deep breath, held Su Mier's arm, and whispered in his ear: "I Do you remember that one of your martial arts can hide your body?"

"You mean dark dust scattered?" Su Mier was very confused why Hua Manlou suddenly mentioned his martial arts.

"Yes, that's the one." Hua Manlou nodded, and said seriously, "You can use it now."

Su Mier was even more confused, "It's okay to be invisible, but why?"

"Because I don't like people looking at you like that..."

How do you look?

Hearing what Hua Manlou said in a low voice next to his ear, Su Mier raised his head reflexively, just in time to meet a girl who hadn't looked back yet.

And the girl not only didn't avoid it, but even cast a wink at her.

ok, so scary...

Su Mier disappeared instantly, and shrank behind Hua Manlou as if it wasn't enough.
