[Comprehensive martial arts] The bright moon shines on you

Under the soft light, the beauty dressed in white leaned against the pear blossom wooden table, supporting her stomach with one hand.The snow-colored dress fell to the ground along her knees, and the delicately embroidered sleeves slid down her forearm, revealing a small wrist as white as snow.

Warm lights shone on her body, and this dreamy, cool and beautiful beauty who seemed to be far away from the mortal world sat there quietly, her slender eyelashes moved slightly and slowly lifted.When the figure of the person who walked into the room was reflected in the clear eyes, a soft and warm color with a smile condensed in the depths of her eyes, and it was this warm eyes that made her The cold aura around him faded away, and finally it was tainted with the smell of the world of mortals.

Chu Liuxiang's eyes fell on her for a long time, from the time he entered the door until he walked to the table and sat down.It wasn't until his gaze was so long that the beauty at the table looked sideways with some doubts, that the man in white suddenly felt startled, coughed lightly to cover up, and looked away slightly.

"Mingyue, why are you here?"

Looking up and down at the man sitting in front of him, Ming Yueye tilted her head, a sly smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "Why am I here, don't you know best?"

Chu Liuxiang paused with his fingers reaching out to touch the teapot on the table, his eyelashes drooped slightly, then continued to reach out to pick up the teapot, turned the upside-down teacup on the table and poured himself a cup of tea.

Slowly took a sip of tea at a suitable temperature, and when he looked up again, the man in white had a clearly visible smile and helplessness in his eyes, "So Mingyue, you admit that you sent those who prevented me from going to the island ?”

Facing his direct question, the girl in white almost didn't hesitate at all, and nodded very naturally.Then the black eyelashes slightly raised, and he smiled slightly at him, "It's just a random try, it shouldn't be of much use anyway."

It's a bit stupid to say this, but Chu Liuxiang doesn't think it's pestering at all.Hearing her childish words, the man in white couldn't help laughing, "You really have confidence in me."

"Of course I have confidence in you." Mingyue Ye frowned slightly, smiled at him, and then rested her chin on one hand, wondering and wondering, "So, what are you doing on Yemu Island?"

Just as the edge of the teacup touched his lips, the man in white paused for a moment when he heard the words, then raised his eyes slightly, with a little surprise in his tone, "You don't know?"

Ming Yueye shook her head very honestly.

After carefully confirming for a few seconds that she did not deliberately play around him, Chu Liuxiang suddenly felt dumbfounded for a moment.He slowly put down the teacup in his hand, looked up at the girl in front of him, and asked her sincerely, "You don't know the reason why I want to go to the island, and why did you spend so much effort to stop me?"

Ming Yueye blinked, looked up at him obediently with her chin in one hand, and responded very sincerely, "Because I want to do something."

"Look, we have encountered so many behind-the-scenes men who want to do things before, no matter how many years of planning they have exhausted their efforts and how well-planned they are, once you intervene in the way of their plans, what will happen to their plans? Most of them have only one ending, the conspiracy is revealed and the success falls short.”

The girl in white sighed seriously when she said this, and looked very sad, "So you see, I received the news that you are going to the island before I started to make trouble. I have to try my best to get you to the island. Did you stop outside?"

Chu Liuxiang listened to her, and the smile on her lips deepened.In the end, he imitated her and sighed in a serious manner, "But I have come up now, Mingyue, what are you going to do with me?"

"So you see, I can only obediently come to you." The girl in white tilted her head slightly, and her long black hair slid down her side face, making the smile on her lips lively and beautiful, "Actively I beg Master Chu to let me live, okay?"

Chu Liuxiang stared at her for a long while, and finally the smile in his eyes couldn't help showing out and turning into a shallow stream, gathering a gentle and warm light in his clear eyes.Raising his hand in front of the girl's eyebrows, Chu Liuxiang twirled the teacup on the table with her slender fingers, shook her head lightly, and said with a smile, "I came to Yemu Island actually for one person. .”

Ming Yueye blinked, "Who?"

"Xiaoyaohou."

The girl in white shrank her fingers slightly on the table, her slender eyelashes blinked slightly, and half closed.

"...A friend of yours was arrested and taken into the Doll's Villa?"

"You really know Doll Villa." Chu Liuxiang looked up at her knowingly, the girl in front of her with thick crow-feather eyelashes drooped and said nothing.Chu Liuxiang didn't ask too much, but continued to explain to her, "Do you still remember the duel between Zuo Qinghou of 'Throwing Cup Villa' and Xue Yiren of 'Xuejiazhuang' on the first day of May?"

Mingyue Ye slowly picked up the teacup in hand, handed it to her lips, and took a sip of tea.

"I remember...so they disappeared?"

At that time, due to other reasons, Ming Yueye didn't pay much attention to this duel, but at this moment when she heard Chu Liuxiang mention it, she suddenly remembered... After the news of this duel spread, until now, who is between the two of them? There is no definite conclusion on who wins or loses.

Shaking his head and sighing softly, Chu Liuxiang's eyes fell on the teacup in his hand, and he said slowly, "I never thought I could stop this duel. It's just that Second Brother Zuo is my best friend after all, he To fight for life and death with someone, as a friend, no matter what, I should be there to witness for him.”

Ming Yueye nodded lightly, "It should be righteous."

"But when I arrived at Songjiang Mansion before the first day of May, I found that both of them had disappeared at that time." The finger on the teacup moved slightly, and Chu Liuxiang raised his eyes to look at Mingyue Ye, " Because they have temporarily advanced the duel time."

The eyebrows of the girl in white furrowed slightly, "The words of heroes like Senior Xue and Master Zuo are always firm. Since they have informed the whole world that they will have a duel on the first day of May, they will never take it lightly." A minute and a second earlier or later."

"Because there was indeed a major event that could change their attitude." Chu Liuxiang smiled wryly, and his eyes were deep and distant for a while, "I still find this incident incredible."

"Oh?"

"Just one month before the duel between the second brother Zuo and Xue Yiren, his beloved daughter Zuo Mingzhu suddenly fell ill and lay in bed for half a month without eating or drinking. One finger judges life and death' Mr. Zhang Jianzhai can't explain what's going on."

Ming Yueye's expression moved slightly, and her slender fingers lightly stroked the wall of the teacup.

Chu Liuxiang didn't notice her subtle movements, and continued, "Just when the second brother Zuo was in a hurry and sent someone to rush to the capital to ask the old medicine king to take action, Zuo, who had been sleeping for nearly half a month, The girl woke up suddenly. However, when she wakes up again, she is no longer the original her."

"Borrowing the corpse to return the soul?" Ming Yueye said almost without thinking when she heard this.

Chu Liuxiang nodded slowly, and stared at her seriously with clear and bright eyes, "Mingyue, you are no less knowledgeable than me. Have you ever heard of such an unimaginable thing like reviving a dead body?"

The slender eyelashes drooped slightly, and the girl in white was silent for a while.In the past, she would definitely say that this kind of thing is just nonsense.But now that she herself has been through three lifetimes, she suddenly dare not be so sure.So, in the end she just shook her head slightly, "There are so many wonders in the world, even if I haven't heard of it, who knows if such a thing will really happen?" Although she knew that Zuo Mingzhu must be It's fake.

Chu Liuxiang nodded slightly, then smiled lightly, as if there was a bit of a sigh in the smile, "Actually, I didn't witness this incident personally, because when I arrived, Miss Zuo... or the one who resurrected from the dead The Miss Shi from the 'Shijiazhuang' has also disappeared. Even her disappearance was before Zuo Erge and the others."

"Oh?"

"Second brother Zuo made a marriage contract for her daughter, Miss Zuo earlier." Chu Liuxiang sighed lightly, as if thinking of his old friend who had never heard from him again, his eyes brought a slight gleam. "After deciding the duel with Xue Yiren on the first day of May, the second brother Zuo was afraid that his only daughter would be implicated if he lost. So he invited his in-laws before the first day of May, Among the two heroes of the Ding family in Luhuadang Qixingtang, Ding Erxia came to welcome the bride, and wanted to marry Miss Zuo in advance. In this way, even if he loses, Miss Zuo's safety will not be affected in any way, because she is no longer a People from the Zuo family. This matter was decided when Miss Zuo just fell ill, and the second brother Zuo originally intended to use this marriage to make Miss Zuo happy. When Erxia Ding came to Throwing Cup Villa, he didn't know about this matter Why was it known to Miss Shi who lives in Miss Zuo's body? She seemed to be afraid that Second Brother Zuo would make a mistake or marry her to Erxia Ding, so she ran out secretly in desperation... Because Miss Shi In fact, he is engaged to Xue Bin, the second son of the Xue family."

Ming Yueye twitched her brows slightly, and her lips curled up into an ambiguous smile, "So she sneaked out and eloped with Xue Bin?"

"That's right." Chu Liuxiang nodded slightly, her thin lips hooked slightly, and suddenly brought out a bit of coldness that did not match him, "However, after Second Brother Zuo finds out about this and goes to Xuejiazhuang, But he found that the second son of the Xue family had already returned."

Ming Yueye paused when she touched the rim of the teacup on the table, raised her eyes in surprise and said, "Didn't he elope, what did he come back for?"

"There are many reasons. For example, as a man, he still can't let go of Xuejiazhuang's huge family business." Chu Liuxiang casually unfolded the folding fan in his hand, and said lightly, "But he came back, but Miss Shi didn't come back."

"Regardless of whether it is true or not, even if it is true, it is the body of Miss Zuo Mingzhu. The second brother Zuo naturally wants to ask Xuejiazhuang for an explanation. The second son Xue is a junior, and besides, he shrank in Xuejiazhuang and did not come out. Naturally, second brother Zuo only Being able to find Xue Yiren...that's why their duel came earlier."

Ming Yueye nodded, and then asked in confusion, "Then why do you say they disappeared?"

"After the Second Brother Zuo and Xue Yiren argued about Second Young Master Xue, because no one could convince the other, Dang even decided to fight directly. The place for their duel was chosen in a woods outside the Songjiang Mansion, and Xuejiazhuang and Everyone in the Throwing Cup Villa was waiting outside the woods. According to the original agreement between the second brother Zuo and Xue Yiren, only one of them could come out of the woods alive in the end. The two families behind them came out of the woods. They waited until it was dark and then the next day when the sun rose from the east, but no one came back. It was not until the sun went down again in the evening of the next day that they finally felt that something was wrong, and they went into the woods together to search However, after searching for two full days, there were still traces of the fight between Brother Zuo and Xue Yiren in the woods, but their people did not know where they went. Even they had guessed whether they were both injured, but they still explained It doesn't make sense, but even in this case, there won't be even the bodies of the two of them left behind."

Speaking of this matter, even Chu Liuxiang's face became more solemn.Ming Yueye tilted her head and thought for a while, "Is there a cliff behind the woods?"

"Yes, but there is no trace of the two of them under the cliff." Chu Liuxiang recalled it seriously for a while, and said in a low voice, "There is a pile of rocks under that cliff, and there is no stream, so there is no water flow to wash them away." The situation of walking. And the cliffs go straight down, and there are no caves or other places where people can hide.”

"So at that time, because of the sudden disappearance of such a large living person, I thought of a place."

Mingyueye blinked when she heard the words, Chu Liuxiang put down the folding fan in her hand, looked at her and smiled slightly, "I didn't know Doll Villa at that time."

The eyes of the girl in white widened a little, and after serious recollection for a while, she said in a daze, "...Ghost Villa?"

The legendary place that only the dead can go to is indeed in line with the situation of Zuo Qinghou and Xue Yiren.

Chu Liuxiang nodded with a smile, but he didn't say much about the rest of the matter. He just briefly summarized, "At this time, I searched for a long time, and then I found out that the two of them did not go to the Ghost Villa. Later, someone He told me about the existence of Xiaoyaohou’s Doll Villa, and that he will very likely come to the island when Yemu Island opens this year. That’s why I chased after him directly.”

After listening to this long antecedent, Ming Yueye nodded thoughtfully.Her slender eyelashes drooped slightly, and she held the azure teacup on the table with her white fingers, thinking for a long time.When she looked up again, her eyes were a little more serious and solemn, "Leave this matter to me."

The author has something to say: Zuo Mingzhu is really...well...

Then there is a foreshadowing buried here, let's guess who told Chu Liuxiang Doll Villa?
