With a tiger in my heart, I smell Xinlan carefully

"Lan" was her name, she remembered, though she had forgotten everything. --Inscription

On the outskirts of the capital, in a small restaurant.

The sound of clattering was endless, Xiaohu raised his eyes and saw a young man in navy blue light armor coming upstairs, he was finally relieved: "You are finally here, Xiaolong. I thought I wouldn't see you this time, after all You've already missed your appointment twice."

"I'm busy with business, so of course I don't have much time to get distracted." Xiaolong's eyes flickered, and he sat down with a casual sentence, "We usually meet on June [-]th, why are you looking for me now?"

The former friends are now surprised to see each other more than once a year, and Xiaohu has mixed feelings in his heart: "The undercover Wang Rong I placed in the Black Fox Gang—you have seen it, but you probably don't remember it—the news came two days ago. According to news, the Black Fox Gang has occupied the Shaolin Temple."

"Oh..." Xiaolong's heart ached when he heard the news at first, but he has grown up and been in the officialdom for a long time, and he can't tell from the surface alone, "Isn't that already expected, and the lead They settled in the Shaolin Temple, and then killed the carbine——Actually, I am not optimistic about your plan. The power of the Black Fox Gang grows bigger and bigger, and it can no longer be solved by a single battle. In the end, it will inevitably lose manpower, and there is no way Give them a big blow."

Xiaohu sighed after hearing the words: "It's not that I don't understand, but I can't do it just watching them run rampant like this without doing anything. But this plan has been cancelled, and I didn't come to you for this matter."

"Oh, what's that?" Xiaolong picked up a piece of honey rice cake on the plate, put it in his mouth and chewed it casually.

He didn't ask why he canceled the plan. Xiaohu's heart sank, but he didn't show any other emotions. He closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I want to find out the whereabouts of a person—Wan Shun, where is he now?"

Xiaolong stopped drinking tea, and the green soup reflected his flickering eyes.After gulping it down, he put down his teacup and replied: "When the war in the north started, he was sent as an envoy to Wala, and he hasn't returned yet."

Xiaohu waited for a while, seeing that he still didn't ask about his purpose, his heart sank even more.Pursing his lips, he changed what he was going to say next: "Wang Rong saw Xiaolan in Shaolin Temple. She is in the Black Fox Gang, and her current name is White Demon."

"what!"

The honey rice cake fell to the ground in an instant, and Xiaolong stood up abruptly, leaning forward slightly while supporting the table: "How is this possible? That person must have misread it. How could he recognize Xiaolan? This is ridiculous!"

"Calm down." Xiaohu had already expected Xiaolong's reaction, after all, this was the reaction he wanted to see.He went on to say: "Wang Rong met Xiaolan. Although it was ten years ago, he still recognized her. After that, he asked many black fox soldiers from the south, and they all said the same thing. , this 'White Demon' is an orphan girl rescued by the Black Fox King from Hong Shan ten years ago—Ten years ago, Hong Shan looked the same as Xiao Lan, doesn't that explain the problem?"

"How come... Xiaolan... No! There are not a few village women who go to Hongshan to collect medicine, which may not prove that the white demon is Xiaolan." Shocked to the point of losing my mind.

Xiaohu sighed again: "Xiaolong, there are not so many coincidences in this world."

"If it's not a coincidence, what could it be? You and I watched Xiaolan fall... into the magma. How can a person survive after falling into the magma? It's unscientific!" Xiaolong retorted stubbornly.

"You also said before that if a person repeats a word twice, it must be to convince himself. But whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway."

Xiaohu knew Xiaolong well, and he would never admit it unless he threw the facts in his face.So Xiaohu didn't try to persuade him anymore, but slowly led him to the place he wanted: "Wang Rong has been appointed as the deputy by Xiao--that person who looks like Xiaolan, there will always be an answer to who she is For this reason, I have to go to Wala to find Wan Shun."

"What do you want Master Wanshun to do? What does fortune-telling have to do with Xiaolan?" Xiaolong didn't know why.

This kind of question is what Xiaohu wants to hear. He replied: "He once told our fortunes. I want to know what Xiaolan's future he foresaw at that time. I also want to know about the wheel of time..."

Suddenly he looked directly into Xiaolong's eyes, his eyes were piercing, making people feel his firmness: "If that person is indeed Xiaolan, and the experience when I was a child was not a daydream, then we have clearly changed the future. , why still can't save her fate of serving the Black Fox Gang? Why all this, I want to know!"

His eyes were too eager, and Xiaolong realized that he could not even utter a rebuttal in the face of such eyes, so he lowered his head and adjusted his glasses, coughed a few times and replied, "Then... what do you want?"

"Let's go to the north." A smile suddenly appeared on Xiaohu's face.

"Us?" Xiaolong couldn't respond, "You mean us? You...you want me to accompany you to find Lord Wanshun? I'm an official of the imperial court, how can I accompany you to visit the mountains and rivers, and it's for a Traveling thousands of miles for something that is simply illusory?"

Xiaohu supported Xiaolong's shoulders, his voice trembling: "We used to be a group, although we are no longer, but the friendship is for life. If Bai Yao is really Xiaolan, will you just sit back and watch her fall into sin?"

Xiaolong turned his head, not daring to look directly into his burning eyes: "No, of course... no."

"That's all right! Go back and pack your bags, and we will meet here in a day. The expenses along the way will depend on you, remember to bring extra money, I know that the crown prince has rewarded you with a lot of good things!"

Xiaohu punched Xiaolong's chest excitedly, leaning on the railing with his right hand for strength, he jumped to the first floor with a single leap, and waved to Xiaolong before leaving: "Remember to attend the appointment on time!"

"What?" Xiaolong yelled in the direction of his departure, "When did I say I agreed?!"

In a hidden walled city near Shaolin Temple.

"The plan is cancelled? What does this mean? We took such a big risk to withdraw from the Shaolin Temple just to be able to kill the black fox gang in one fell swoop. The plan is cancelled. Do we want us to abandon the foundation of the Shaolin Temple and become a loser?!"

Hearing the news from his disciples, Elder Xuanfeng's beard almost exploded with anger.

Elder Zhaozhen at the side persuaded: "Elder Xuanfeng, you have to calm down, Xiaohu must have his reasons for doing things."

Elder Xuanfeng was still furious, he slapped the table and roared: "I don't care what his reasoning is, we left Shaolin Temple at the beginning to deal with the Black Fox Gang, now he quits, Chen Xiaohu quit, then let's continue, one is to take back Shaolin Temple , and the second is to eliminate the Black Fox Gang. With our two thousand Shaolin disciples, we are afraid of a bunch of mobs!"

Zhaozhen then looked at Elder Longchuan, who was the acting abbot after the disappearance of Abbot Sanzang: "Elder Longchuan, look?"

Long Chuan twirled the Buddhist beads, first recited "Amitabha", then looked at the two of them and said: "Xuanfeng's words are not unreasonable, we will take back the Shaolin Temple no matter what. The plan is as usual, three days later, we will bring all the Fight the black fox together with the monks!"

"Yes!"

The Black Fox Gang returned to the Central Plains, and one stone caused a thousand waves.The various forces in the Central Plains who have been watching the fire from the other side have heard the news, or took advantage of the situation, or waited for it.

But on the other hand, the instigator who caused all this is extraordinarily leisurely and indifferent.

"What does it smell like? It smells so good..."

Lan opened her eyes, and found that the dry and cold straw under her body had been replaced by a soft mattress. Looking up, the dungeon had become her own room. There was no longer warm food on the table, and a man was sleeping with his elbows on the table. people.

Her heart was slightly warm, but she also felt a little wronged.

The two days of sleeping in the dungeon exhausted her physical strength, she struggled to sit up, and smiled ironically at him: "It's not that you want me to have a long memory, why did you let me go after only two days?"

The Black Fox King didn't sleep, he realized that Lan had woken up, so he was about to leave.

When he reached the door, he turned around again and said to Land: "You are probably used to being willful without scruples, but don't take my repeated tolerance as a bargaining chip for your presumptuousness. From now on, you are not allowed to go to Shaolin Temple, This is the final warning."

She heard almost the same words from the same person two days ago, but in a more angry tone——

"I warned you not to go to the Shaolin Temple! Have you never understood what it means to 'obey orders'? If you are not punished, you will never remember the lesson. Don't take my repeated tolerance as your presumptuous bargaining chip! Come on, put She was taken to the dungeon and kept under strict supervision!"

Lan remembered the scene at that time, his black mask instantly transformed into a ferocious yellow mask, roaring, roaring with extreme anger, it sounded like a wounded beast——

In Lan's impression, the Black Fox King had never been so angry, not even towards those useless subordinates, let alone her.

Thinking of all this, the sarcasm in her heart became even worse: "You warned me not to call you a black fox, not to run around, not to talk back to you, when did I hear that? In the final analysis, you are just guilty, you I'm afraid that I will think of the past and turn around to deal with you. If you were really afraid, you shouldn't have lied to me in the first place. You are in a cocoon!"

These words made the Black Fox King stop his departure.

He turned his head slowly, unexpectedly, he was not angered by Lan, but calmly said: "No more going to Shaolin Temple. Know your position, you can't bear the consequences of disobeying orders." .”

Lan didn't answer.There was no way she would compromise on this matter--nor neither of them, of course.

But knowing that he shouldn't provoke him anymore, Lan didn't do any more tit-for-tat things, but instead asked: "Have you taken good care of the queen I captured? I want that Wang Rong's to be my deputy." Do you know?"

"..."

The Black Fox King looked at her, turned around, sighed secretly, and said bluntly, "Eat."

Consciously close to physical and mental exhaustion, he was determined to leave.Looking at his back, Lan suddenly asked uncontrollably: "If I really remembered everything and turned to help everyone deal with you, what would you do?"

"I will kill you." The Black Fox King replied, "I will definitely kill you."

Lan guessed the answer, so she just snorted and turned her head away—she didn't believe that the Black Fox King would kill herself, she never believed it.

But she suddenly remembered that she had heard such a sentence in some place, time, situation, and population. If a person repeats the sentence twice, it must be to convince herself.

In fact, the Black Fox King and Lan have the same idea.

They think they have something to rely on, but they can't convince themselves: Although they have been together for ten years, Lan has no confidence in the relationship based on deception; Driven by some factors that he refused to admit, he was unable to strengthen his determination to eradicate the weeds.

"Let's eat."

After leaving such a sentence, the Black Fox King left.And Lan sat on the bed in a daze for a while, and quickly got out of bed to eat.
