Dusk, Jinling.
The lake is covered with snow, and there is a lone boat.
A ball of light in the boat illuminated two faces facing each other. One was wearing plain clothes and sitting upright with his legs bent, while the other was devouring the delicacies in front of him, with a warm felt blanket under his buttocks.
"Should I call you brother-in-law? Or the leader of the World Alliance, or the lobby leader of the Money Gang?" the woman asked with a smile.
Li Muchan looked at the woman who claimed to be Shangguan Xian'er, and then paid attention to the name she called him. Without answering, she asked: "Well, by the way, which one of you is the elder sister? Which one is the younger sister? I remember when we were at Peacock Villa, She said she was the elder sister, and now you say she is the younger sister, I am almost confused."
Shangguan Xian'er also looked at Li Muchan carefully, raised his dirty chin, and said slowly: "This is normal, in the world, two people who were born together like to compete to be the boss, but who is older and who is younger? Do not know at all."
There was a jade case in front of them, with a pot of old wine warming on it.
After Shangguan Xian'er finished speaking, she filled up the wine bowl and held it in both hands. First she sniffed the aroma of the wine with great enjoyment, and then drank it all in one gulp, revealing a section of her white swan neck. She looked exactly like Shangguan Xiaoxian. same.
Li Muchan murmured: "Shangguan Xian'er? Shangguan Xiaoxian? It's really difficult to distinguish."
As the old wine entered her throat, Shangguan Xian'er's cheeks turned slightly red. Even the mud could not hide her beauty. She said softly: "Others may not be able to tell the difference, but you can definitely do it."
Her eyes are very charming and delicate. The ends of her long and narrow eyes are curled with curved eyelashes, and her eyes seem to hide the mist and rain in the south of the Yangtze River. She is extremely beautiful.
Li Muchan pondered for a while and said, "Are you her substitute in Luoyang City?"
The lights were shining brightly, and there was no sound of wind outside the boat, only snow falling.
Shangguan Xian'er answered directly: "Not bad."
Li Muchan sighed: "I remember she said you are half-sisters."
Shangguan Xian'er leaned against the light and seemed to feel very cold. Her eyes flickered and she said faintly: "She lied to you. We are exactly the same. Naturally, we have the same father and mother, and we are twin sisters. My mother is very shrewd. We were separated when we were born, one was in the light and the other was in the dark, even the Flying Swordsman was kept in the dark."
Li Muchan said "Oh", her eyes became a little subtle, and asked: "Then how did you survive?"
The blush on Shangguan Xian'er's face became even thicker: "You have forgotten that Shangguan's family was once a famous martial arts family in Luoyang City, and they could also have several loyal old servants."
Li Muchan nodded: "I see."
Shangguan Xian'er looked at the person in front of him and chuckled: "Also, I found the 'Money Gang's' treasure one step earlier than Shangguan Xiaoxian."
Li Muchan suddenly stopped talking. He just stared at the woman in front of him, his eyes flashing, as if he had guessed something and was waiting for the other person to say it.
Shangguan Xian'er actually said it: "I got the peacock feather."
She stared at Li Muchan and said this sentence word for word.
Li Muchan's eyes trembled and he said warmly: "What do you want?"
Shangguan Xian'er took a few sips of wine, caressed her high chest, and squinted her eyes: "I want too much, fame, wealth, power, can you satisfy me?"
Li Muchan smiled: "You might as well speak directly and speak boldly."
Shangguan Xian'er looked directly into Li Muchan's eyes and said happily: "Okay, I want the 'Money Gang'."
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows habitually and said very calmly: "What's the benefit?"
Shangguan Xian'er said: "I can join forces with you to deal with the 'Qinglong Society' and eradicate them first."
Li Muchan pondered for a long time before sighing: "Sure enough, your surname is Shangguan. A peacock feather dares to come here with me to seize the remaining half of the world. You are really brave."
"Speaking of which," Shangguan Xian'er ate several more snacks and said leisurely, "Didn't you also start from a humble beginning and come from nothing to where you are now? Now there are people in the world who call you the number one in the devil's way throughout the ages. People', some people secretly say that you are some kind of 'Martial Arts Emperor', in my opinion, you are the most courageous."
Li Muchan didn't care at all about these titles. He asked, "What about Shangguan Xiaoxian? Are you going to replace her? Or pretend to be her?"
Shangguan Xian'er smiled softly: "Haha, I just get back what belongs to me. Is this reason enough?"
Li Muchan nodded: "That's enough."
"It's just," his eyes were dark, he lowered his eyebrows, sighed, and his voice became deeper: "I think you should go find Shangguan Xiaoxian. She is your flesh-and-blood brother and sister, and maybe she is the only one you can have each other with in the world. Relatives to rely on instead of coming to me.”
Shangguan Xian'er fell silent, her eyes turned red, her breath trembled, and she laughed hoarsely: "Are you feeling sorry for her?"
"No," Li Muchan shook his head, "I just don't like this kind of drama where brothers are fighting each other and killing each other. Although the world is dangerous, I still long to see something that can make people miss me besides fame and fortune."
Shangguan Xian'er's eyes were red and she let out a painful groan: "Then why can't I be the leader of the Money Gang? And she imprisoned me, so I had to regard her as an enemy."
boom!
She slapped the table, her face suddenly turned pale, and her eyes were fixed on Li Muchan, sometimes bright and kind, sometimes sharp, and finally she laughed sharply: "I want her to see with her own eyes the things she cherishes one by one. Belong to me, I want to watch her fail, watch her suffer, I will never kill her, I want her to fall into the dust."
The cold words seemed to cover up the chill between heaven and earth.
But after she finished speaking, all the coldness disappeared. Shangguan Xianer smiled sweetly, as if she was not the one who said those words before.
Li Muchan sighed: "Let me think about it."
Shangguan Xian'er became very well-behaved at this time: "Okay, I will give you a month. I also want to have a good time in Jinling City."
She stood up, lifted the curtain and left, jumped up, and she had dived into the snow curtain like a flying swallow, and walked away on the waves.
This level of human body law is rare in this world.
Li Muchan sat alone for a long time, his eyes dimming and brightening in the light, obscure and hard to understand, not knowing what he was thinking.
Then, he got up and left the boat, raised his arms and flew across the lake, arriving at the small pavilion in the middle of the lake.
The pavilion is surrounded by water, which seems to be isolated from the worldly world.
Li Muchan stood in the pavilion, clasped his hands to face the wind, looking at the snow-white and silent world in front of him, his heart gradually calmed down.
a long time.
A gust of fragrant wind suddenly came.
The crisp ringing sound sounded, and the goddess of bliss pulled Ye'er out of the wind and snow amid a burst of sweet laughter.
Li Muchan looked at the two of them and asked with a smile: "Where have you been playing? Are you so happy?"
Ye'er was ignorant and naive. He blinked his big eyes, his round cheeks were filled with joy, he clasped his hands and counted, "Sister Tiannu just took me to hide and seek in the snow. It was so fun. I even bought a lot of snacks." , watched the magic show, set off firecrackers, and got a new clothes reward, and... bought a lot of clothes for my uncle, and I spent a long time picking them out."
Li Muchan looked at the Blissful Goddess and said with a gentle smile, "It's troublesome."
"Hey," the pretty face of the Paradise Goddess blushed at first, and then she rolled her eyes at Ye'er angrily, rubbing her face with her delicate hands, "You girl, I told you not to talk too much, and you promised well just now. Yeah, just turn around and sell me out, see how I deal with you."
Ye'er hurriedly jumped into Li Muchan's arms and hid aside: "It would be better if uncle played with us. Today we found many broken houses, which are perfect for hide and seek."
Li Muchan patted the snowflakes on the little girl's head and asked curiously: "A broken house?"
The goddess of bliss said with a smile: "They are all deserted ancestral halls. This girl's physical skills have improved, and she specializes in finding places where no one is around, which makes it difficult for me to find."
"Ancestral hall?" Li Muchan was startled, his eyes trembling slightly, and then he smiled and said, "Okay, you guys go back first, it's very cold, the banquet should be over by now, I'll be there soon."
The goddess of bliss picked up Ye'er and quickly disappeared into the snow amid a burst of laughter.
For a long time, looking at the flying snow between the sky and the earth, Li Muchan slowly closed his vibrant eyes and let out a low sigh. The cold wind squeezed in, the wind and frost hit his face, and there was a faint drop in the pavilion. The crystal falls, I don’t know whether it is the cold snow or the sad tears.
"After all, I couldn't take this last step."
After a moment, Li Muchan's eyes slowly opened again, his eyes as dim as two rising will-o'-wisps, captivating in the dark night.
"Can Qinglong know it? It's wonderful!"
Let’s talk about the origin of Shangguan Xian’er. The original work only briefly mentioned that she and Li Manqing gave birth to Li Huai, which means that Lin Xian’er gave birth to twins, one was Shangguan Xiaoxian and the other was Shangguan Xian’er, twin sisters.
