"Not stupid..."
A strange ocher color suddenly appeared in the hall master's eyes, like two drops of wet blood, or like two faint ghost fires, flickering on and off with unpredictable depth.
At the moment when the wine gourd shattered, Li Muchan could vaguely see a group of frightening purple light rising between the opponent's clenched fingers, but it disappeared again in an instant, making the person's eyes turn purple.
As soon as he finished speaking, the host of the hall flicked his right hand in the air and waved his sleeve, and the wine that had originally splashed disappeared out of thin air, as if it had been wiped away.
"Very good." He rolled up his sleeves, rubbed his fingers together, and opened his palms again. He saw the ice shards falling to the ground. His eyes seemed to be looking at Li Muchan again, with a smile, "I have to Admit it, you surprised me.”
If Shangguan Xiaoxian was not stupid, then these words undoubtedly saved his life, and even saved the lives of many people, and also brought a chance to turn the world around.
Li Muchan suddenly asked: "Can I live now?"
The lobby master raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Okay, just this sentence, even if you don't have this face, you are qualified to exchange for glory and wealth, but..."
Li Muchan asked lightly: "But what?"
The host of the lobby looked out the window at the moon that had reached its zenith, and said in an almost casual tone: "I can't believe you yet, but it doesn't stop me from admiring you. If Shangguan Xiaoxian is not stupid, then this person has deep plans. It's really scary. Maybe she has already acquired the martial arts left by Shangguan Jinhong, and the Demon Cult... Hiss... In that case, go and lure her out. I think she should also be waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to show off the outcome. .”
Li Muchan also looked out the window, looking at the clouds gathering over the mountains, at the green mountains and green waters, and at the silent tombs, and simply said decisively: "Okay... but how to lure her out? "
The master of the lobby seemed to have thought about it for a long time. He smiled slightly and said while getting up: "Why don't you get married? Since she thinks she has deceived everyone in the world, then as she wishes, I will go to Cuifang Tower to give it to her tomorrow. Redemption."
After saying these words, the lobby owner had a sly smile in his eyes, as if he was extremely satisfied with this idea.
Before Li Muchan could respond, he clapped his hands and laughed, "That's it, I'll give you ten days to prepare. I'll give you everything you want in these ten days, right here, with food and drinks." You have a woman to drink and enjoy as you please. Once the ten days are up, you will marry her. I will marry her with my own hands on her big day."
It's not that Li Muchan never thought about this result. Since he told Shangguan Xiaoxian's secret about pretending to be stupid in exchange for a chance to breathe, he would naturally choose to face Shangguan Xiaoxian.
And getting married to him would undoubtedly lead to a narrow escape from death.
If he really takes action, he will be the first to die.
The hall master added with a smile: "As long as you survive this disaster, I will guarantee that you will enjoy endless glory and wealth."
Li Muchan closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then said as if accepting his fate: "Okay, I'll follow what you said, but in these ten days you ask your people to withdraw from the Flower Forest. I don't like to be watched, so you can let me They are guarding at the foot of the mountain."
"make a deal!"
The words fell to the ground and the person drifted away.
Li Muchan opened his eyes again and looked out the window. He saw that the two new tombs that had just been erected suddenly broke open. Two sharp figures jumped into the sky under the moon, circling like birds, following the master of the lobby. In the flower forest.
Sure enough, a living person was buried.
It's late at night.
The lights dimmed.
Li Muchan sat quietly for a long time. Seeing that there was no movement outside, he got up and carried the shovel at the door to the many mass graves, and began to dig open the tombs one by one.
It wasn't until dawn the next day that there was no living person lying in the grave, but corpses, that I was completely relieved.
After sleeping for a whole day until dark, he took out the book again and read it carefully.
"I was originally a descendant of a martial arts family in the south of the Yangtze River. However, I was kidnapped by the Demon Sect and narrowly escaped death. I was favored by the elders of the Demon Sect and accepted him as his subordinate. I then returned to the Central Plains to coordinate the Demon Sect's eastward advance. However, my memory has not changed. The parents of the Xiao family searched for each other secretly, hoping that the world would be unstable, and the family was actually wiped out. When their hearts were filled with despair and they contracted a bad disease, they became obsessed with life and death..."
Looking at the last words left by Dao Twelve, Li Muchan was silent for a moment, never expecting that this person was like him.
He sighed and looked down.
"Since I took hold of the sword, I have killed a total of 379 people, and my hands are full of blood. I know that my sins are serious, and what I am doing now is also retribution. I am not very unwilling, but I only have one regret. When I traveled across the Western Regions in the past, I fought with I fell in love with a Jiangnan woman at first sight, had a night of fun, and haven't seen each other since. But half a month ago, I received a secret letter from a man who had given birth to a daughter for me, and now he is trapped in the devil's sect... When I Days were running out, and I knew there was no hope of rescue and no one I could trust. When I was desperate, maybe God had mercy on me and I met someone who looked the same as me on the road, so I risked my life..."
Li Muchan's eyes were swaying and complex, and all the doubts he had in the past few days were clear.
Really, everything is impermanent.
but……
A coldness suddenly appeared in his eyes. He stood up and poured a glass of wine from the table. Facing the bright moon, he raised the glass and poured it on the ground.
The wine was splashing, and Li Muchan said softly: "Don't worry, if I don't die, I promise to walk westward and settle all my grudges with one blow."
"puff!"
The oil lamp suddenly went out.
Under the moonlight, the only sound left was the turning of books, and for a long time, only a faint voice was heard.
"The secret spectrum of ghosts, the soul-chasing palm of bones!"
…
Within three days, an interesting thing happened in Luoyang City.
The silly and foolish girl in "Cui Fang House" is actually getting married.
Everyone likes to join in the fun, especially the girls who go out to "Cui Fang House". In the past, they were all courtesan, worth a lot of money, crowded with disciples of aristocratic families and dignitaries, and made countless men envious.
But now they are all making fun of her, and even more so, they are laughing at Li Muchan.
This man is not a common man. He is full of skills and has a reputation for talent. He is the most famous among the Goulan House and his appearance is not weak. If he is willing to open his mouth, I am sure that the charming woman will marry him, but now I don’t know who it is. He's not crazy. He actually wants to marry a fool who is bullied by everyone. It's a big joke for nothing.
And in the flower forest.
Tombs all over the place have been dug up, corpses exposed, and the already desolate world is immediately filled with gloomy air. At night, will-o'-the-wisps are everywhere, a gloomy wind is blowing, and there are also faint sounds of ghosts crying and souls wailing, scaring those who pass by. The people cried for their fathers and mothers one by one, and peeed like shit.
In the blink of an eye, ten days have passed.
There were a lot of newly installed wooden furniture in the originally dilapidated wooden house, which was decorated with lights and colored with the word "囍" on it.
The owner of the lobby is still disguised as an old lame man and is busy doing things; the people coming in and out are dressed in different clothes, but their steps are steady, and their smiling faces hide a deep coldness. .
They are all members of the Qinglong Society.
On the contrary, Li Muchan was idle aside. His originally slightly sallow complexion now turned a bit white for some reason, as if he had not seen the sun for a long time, as if he had contracted a disease. Under the setting sun, he was so white that he could see clearly the veins of his muscles and bones, and his slightly drooping face. The eyes are green, and the eyes are like ghost fire, faint and breathtaking.
But all this soon disappeared.
"Ahem," he coughed a few times as if he was suffering from the cold. His eyes suddenly dropped and he looked down the path down the mountain. When he saw a swaying sedan, his eyelids trembled, "Here he comes!"
Whether it is life or death, whether the soul will return to hatred and the body will return to the loess, or whether it will be like joining the world and competing with the heroes of the world, it all depends on tonight.
