Huansha Lake is located thirty miles south of Diecui Town, surrounded by mountains on three sides and has beautiful scenery. There is a Huansha Pavilion by the lake, and a woman wearing a veil is sitting in the hall. The woman was wearing a light green gown, and behind her stood two men in black, with long swords hanging from their waists. Behind the two men was a black wooden box.
Xiao Yunfan came riding a white horse and saw the pavilion from a distance. He dismounted, tied the horse's reins under a willow tree, and walked slowly into the pavilion. He saw a woman sitting in the pavilion, raised his hands and said, "May I ask if this girl is from the Ghost Prime Minister's Sect?" Bai Ruoxuan said, "Sir, please sit down. Let me play the piano for you."
Xiao Yunfan looked at the sparkling water on the lake, and a few birds flying across the lake. The breeze blew, and he smiled happily: "Okay, girl, please." Bai Ruoxuan played the guqin with her slender jade fingers, and the sound was melodious, which was the ancient song "High Mountains and Flowing Waters" 》.
The song was sometimes high-pitched and sometimes soothing. Xiao Yunfan closed his eyes and felt clouds and mist in front of his eyes, as if he saw a majestic mountain with a waterfall on the top of the mountain, and the water spray fell down into the pool. Then the water from the pool overflowed and merged into the stream. The flowing water makes me happy.
After the song was played, Xiao Yunfan opened his eyes and smiled and said: "Thank you, Miss Yale." Bai Ruoxuan said: "Master, do you know the name of this song?" Xiao Yunfan answered truthfully: "I don't know. Xiao is a martial artist and doesn't understand music. You can only tell whether it sounds good or not." Bai Ruoxuan smiled and said, "This piece is called "High Mountains and Flowing Waters"."
Xiao Yunfan said: "Xiao often listens to the mountains and flowing water to find a close friend, but unfortunately Xiao is not a girl's close friend." Bai Ruoxuan said: "Young Master is humbled." Xiao Yunfan said: "Young lady, you invite Xiao here today to invite me to listen to the music." Right." What he said was quite rude, and Bai Ruoxuan said, "Of course not, I want to test the master today."
Xiao Yunfan laughed and said: "I am most afraid of others testing me. Let's get straight to the point. What does it take for a girl to be willing to give up the silver thirteen?" Bai Ruoxuan said: "Then it depends on whether Mr. Xiao can pass my three years. "There are three passes." Xiao Yunfan frowned and said, "You have to pass three passes, okay, let the girl tell you."
Bai Ruoxuan said: "This first level is couplets." Xiao Yunfan said: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, Xiao has little talent and little knowledge, and is most afraid of making mistakes in writing. Miss, you should ask individual questions." Bai Ruoxuan said: "Young Master, how do you know you will lose if you don't try? ?" Xiao Yunfan said bravely: "Okay, you say it."
Bai Ruoxuan's sleeves flicked with the wind, and a piece of paper immediately rose up on the table. I saw her pick up a pen and write seven words on the paper, Xizi Huansha Beauty Tears. Xiao Yunfan applauded and said: "Good work." He looked at the word and saw that the handwriting was beautiful and the brushwork was rich.
She showed very good skills in this skill. First, she had to write on the hanging paper, not lightly but not too hard. She needed to use even force to ensure good writing. Second, the paper was frozen in the air and fell extremely fast. To write down seven words in such a short period of time, it must be done in one go. She wrote these seven characters neatly, which is very rare.
Bai Ruoxuan put her finger in the tea, and with one palm she slowly lifted the screen into the air. Then she popped out her finger, and a crystal drop of water nailed the screen to the pillar. She looked at Xiao Yunfan and said, "Mr. Xiao, it's your turn." As she said that, she blew the wind from her sleeves again, and the screen on the table flew up. Following that, the brush also flew over.
Xiao Yunfan took the brush with his right hand and wrote seven words in one breath: Sun Lang fights the tiger with heroic courage. He waved a single palm, and the wind of his palm sent the screen away. Then he took out a copper coin and embedded the screen on the pillar on the other side.
Bai Ruoxuan looked at the seven words written by Xiao Yunfan and thought to herself: "His sentence is quite impressive." Then she said: "Young Master Xiao has passed the first level." Xiao Yunfan said with a smile, "Then please Girl, keep asking questions."
Bai Ruoxuan said: "This second question tests Mr. Xiao's wisdom. It is said that there was a rich man who temporarily left twenty-three horses. He had three sons. His will said: 'The eldest son deserves this. The second son should get one-eighth of the inheritance, the second son should get one-third of the inheritance, and the third son should get one-half of the inheritance, and he cannot kill a horse.
So how can Mr. Xiao divide it so that the rich man's sons will be satisfied? "As she spoke, she took out a Persian hourglass, and then said slowly: "If Young Master Xiao has not answered this question before the quicksand above falls to the bottom, then Young Master Xiao may never know the whereabouts of Silver Thirteen. Don't even wonder. "
Xiao Yunfan glanced at the hourglass, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this?" Bai Ruoxuan said: "So Young Master Xiao has the answer." Xiao Yunfan said: "That's natural." He first said He stretched out a finger and said slowly: "I just need to lend them a horse, and this problem will be solved.
First of all, the will says that the eldest son should get one-eighth. I lent them a horse, so the total number of horses is twenty-four. If one-eighth is one-eighth, then he will take away three horses, and the second son will get three. One part, then let him take away eight. As for the younger son, the old rich man loved him the most and let him take away twelve horses.
In this way, three horses plus eight horses, plus twelve horses, will still be twenty-three horses. Naturally, my horses are still mine, and Mr. Xiao completed the old rich man's will for him. "
Bai Ruoxuan applauded and said: "Young Master is indeed smart." Xiao Yunfan said: "Thank you, I have passed two levels, and I asked the girl to hand over the Silver Thirteen." Bai Ruoxuan said: "If Young Master Xiao can pass this third level, I will naturally Release Yin Shisan. And I also promise that the grudge between our Ghost Prime Minister and Mr. Xiao will be wiped out."
Xiao Yunfan said: "I like to hear what you are saying. If Wei Wuyou, Ji Qianyun and the others could have such understanding as the girl, Xiao might let him go. But it's a pity that they accepted death too much and had no choice but to go to the Lord of Hell." Pending order.”
Bai Ruoxuan saw the proud look on Xiao Yunfan's face, and he made sarcastic remarks, feeling unhappy in her heart. She sneered: "Your Excellency, you are too conceited. I'm afraid you won't be able to pass these three tests." Xiao Yunfan said: "As the girl said, no How will you know if you try. Besides, the girl asked me to pass three levels. I have passed two levels now, and I still haven’t seen the shadow of Silver Thirteen. The girl couldn’t be tricking Xiao."
Bai Ruoxuan clapped her hands, and the two people behind him opened the box. They stretched out their arms and put them under Yin Shisan's ribs to drag him out. Xiao Yunfan saw that Yin Shisan's face was pale and there were injuries on his body, and he thought to himself: "The people from the Ghost Prime Minister Sect are full of tricks, and there is no guarantee that Yin Shisan is not a fake."
He turned his gaze to Bai Ruoxuan's face and said lightly: "How do you expect me to believe that this person is Yin Shisan?" Bai Ruoxuan said: "Everyone in the world knows that Yin Shisan has white hair, but you see, he is not." Xiao Yunfan Said: "What the girl said is wrong. Men have beards, and goats also have beards. Are men just goats?"
Bai Ruoxuan smiled and said: "It seems you can't trust me. Archie, wake up Yin Shisan and let Mr. Xiao confirm whether he is Yin Shisan." A middle-aged man with a sallow complexion reached out and tapped Yin Shisan on the back. After a few moments, Silver Thirteen finally regained his breath.
Xiao Yunfan said: "Hey, Brother Yin, let me ask you, who am I?" Yin Shisan heard his voice very familiar and said: "You are Lu Buping." Xiao Yunfan said: "Yes, I am Lu Buping." Bai Ruoxuan said : "Master Xiao, you should believe it now."
Silver Thirteen said: "What Mr. Xiao?" Bai Ruoxuan said: "Master Yin, you don't seem to even know the name of your savior, don't you feel ashamed?" Silver Thirteen said: "You mean? He...he is Xiao Yunfan." Bai Ruoxuan said: "Xiao Yunfan is famous for being nosy, but you don't know him. Oh, I forgot that you are blind now."
Silver Thirteen had never been so humiliated before. He wanted to activate his energy, but his whole body was sore and weak. He said angrily: "Who are you?" Bai Ruoxuan said: "It doesn't matter who we are. There will be someone between you and Xiao Yunfan." A dead man." As she spoke, she turned her eyes to Xiao Yunfan's face and said to one of her subordinates: "Take out the things."
Another man with yellow eyebrows took out a brocade box from under the table and opened it to find two identical wine bottles. The man placed two wine bottles in front of Xiao Yunfan, and Bai Ruoxuan said: "Xiao Yunfan, this is my last question. There are two bottles of wine here, one is poisonous and the other is not poisonous. You choose one and drink it. If it's not poisonous, then I'll drink another bottle of wine for Yin Shisan.
If it is poisonous, you will die and Silver Thirteen will live. Today, I want to see how the nosy Xiao Daxia should choose? "
Xiao Yunfan looked at the two wine bottles in front of him and said, "This is indeed a difficult problem." Bai Ruoxuan said, "Xiao Yunfan, you'd better be honest. If you play tricks, Archie's knife on Yin Shisan's back will be killed." Kill him." When she said this, her voice was tactful and very pleasant, but every word was filled with malice.
Yin Shisan said: "It turns out to be Brother Xiao, Yin is disrespectful. You don't need to save my life, you can leave." Xiao Yunfan smiled and said: "You are wrong, this girl also said that Xiao is a born person. I like to meddle in other people’s business, and since I’ve already decided on something, I can’t make me change it.”
Yin Shisan shook his head and said: "You and I have never met, so why do you have to fight for me?" Xiao Yunfan said: "Brother Yin misunderstood, I was making a bet with this girl. You are just a bet, you have no right to speak. ." Bai Ruoxuan turned the hourglass in front of her over again and said with a smile: "Xiao Yunfan, we still follow the old rules. If you haven't made a decision when the quicksand is over, Silver Thirteen will die."
Xiao Yunfan frowned, he raised the wine bottle with both hands, put it to his nose and smelled it: "Where is this bottle? Or this bottle?" Bai Ruoxuan looked at him and thought to herself: "It's a pity, no matter how you choose, it's still It's going to fall into my hands." Xiao Yunfan glanced at Bai Ruoxuan and said suddenly: "What's the girl's name?" Bai Ruoxuan was startled.
Xiao Yunfan said with a smile: "If Mr. Xiao unfortunately dies later, wouldn't it be a pity that he doesn't even know the girl's name?" Bai Ruoxuan said: "I am known as the 'White Fox Fairy', you can call me little fox." Xiao Yunfan nodded and said: "Jade lion and little fox, they sound like a pair."
Bai Ruoxuan was furious. She flicked her sleeves and a tea bowl flew towards Xiao Yunfan. Xiao Yunfan opened his mouth, raised his head and drank, then tossed his head and sent the tea bowl back. He smiled and said: "Why does the tea that the girl drank have a fragrance? If the girl can make such good tea for me every day, then it will be worth it for me, Xiao Yunfan, even if I die a hundred times every day."
Bai Ruoxuan said angrily: "Shameless, obscene, and frivolous." Xiao Yunfan looked at her wearing a veil and said: "Little fox, can you take off the veil and show me? If you are an ugly person, then the tea just now is not Xiao's Don't spit it out." The yellow-browed man next to her wanted to step forward and use force, but Bai Ruoxuan stretched out a palm to signal him to retreat, then pointed at the hourglass and said: "Your Excellency, you don't have much time."
Xiao Yunfan loosened the wine bottle in his left hand, and the wine bottle fell to the ground with a bang, and the wine spilled all over the floor.
Bai Ruoxuan raised her eyebrows lightly and said: "You..." Xiao Yunfan said: "Don't worry, girl, Xiao has thought of a good way to overcome this. I will smash a wine bottle, and then only Xiao will be left with the wine. People come to drink. As for Xiao’s death or Brother Yin’s death, I don’t want to see such an outcome, so Xiao can only take a gamble.”
Xiao Yunfan raised his neck, tilted the spout of the wine bottle, and a stream of white thread fell into his mouth. Xiao Yunfan drank down every drop of the wine in the jug, then smacked his lips and said, "Good wine." After saying that, he threw the jug back and dropped it on the ground.
Bai Ruoxuan's lips raised a wicked smile. Xiao Yunfan frowned and said with a grin: "This... my stomach hurts." Bai Ruoxuan stood up and said: "Xiao Yunfan, the wine you drank is called sorrow. It is spring, but it is a pity that you have to worry."
Xiao Yunfan felt like stars were rising in front of his eyes, and his stomach felt like a knife was being twisted. He put a hand on his stomach and looked at Bai Ruoxuan and said, "This... now you should let him go, right?" Bai Ruoxuan said, "Archie, let me go." Archie put away the short knife in his hand and untied Yin Shisan. Open acupuncture points.
Yin Shisan walked forward slowly and said: "Brother Xiao, you... why are you doing this?" Xiao Yunfan smiled bitterly and said: "There is no day when people in the world don't... live on the edge of a knife. Can Xiao explain Yin Friends like brother are very good." Yin Shisan stumbled, fell to the ground, and slowly stretched out a hand.
Xiao Yunfan endured the pain in his abdomen, threw himself to the ground, held his hand and said, "It's a great honor for Xiao to have such a... friend like you before he died." Silver Thirteen said: "But I still have I owe you a drink." Xiao Yunfan gasped: "No...it's not a meal, it's a lot. What you owe me in this life will be paid in the next life." After saying that, he fainted.
Yin Shisan's heart heated up and said: "Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao..." Archie stepped forward, kicked Yin Shisan away, stretched out his hand to feel Xiao Yunfan's breath, rolled his eyelids and said: "Your Majesty , Xiao Yunfan is indeed heartbroken." Bai Ruoxuan sneered: "I didn't expect that there would be a fool like him in the world, risking his life for a stranger. Okay, put Xiao Yunfan in the box and take him away."
Archi pointed at Silver Thirteen and said, "Where is this bait?" Bai Ruoxuan said, "Keep this person alive. Of course we have to keep a sword like his to deal with other people." As he said that, Archi and the yellow-browed man raised their heads. Xiao Yunfan, put Xiao Yunfan in the black box.
Not long after, a carriage came from a distance. Bai Ruoxuan said: "Aqi, you are responsible for escorting Xiao Yunfan back to the head teacher. Ali, follow me to Xuanbing Villa."
