At dusk, Jun Bubai woke up from his room, simply put on his makeup and walked out of the house.
Bring a line of clean water in the kitchen backyard to wash your cheeks and flush away the bad smell in your mouth. I went down to the wine cellar to get a jar of Immortal Drunk and drank it down. My whole muscles and bones became alive and I felt extremely sober.
Lou Wanchun was chopping firewood in the backyard, using his palm as a knife. The dry dead wood was split into well-proportioned logs by the wind of his palm, which were neatly stacked in the woodshed.
"Is there any news from Lingyuan?" Jun Bubai took out the sword intention in the courtyard and breathed it in and out to adjust the aura around him.
Lou Wanchun split a piece of dead wood, which split into two pieces and fell aside. "The message from Lingyuan was brought back by someone, saying that the Wang family had sent the news of the second son's death to Jinling immediately. The second son Wang had ruined the family tradition, and the Wang family was against There is not much pursuit of his death, but Jinling's side, Lingyuan specifically told him to be more careful. The second young master Wang has been able to act so wantonly in recent years, and he also has the help of Jinling's side secretly."
Jun Bubai dispersed his sword intent, summoned a sword, and flicked the blade, "This Qingliu family also has some insects that eat the pillars."
After Lou Wanchun finished splitting the dead wood, he bent down to pick up the firewood and sent it to the demolished house one by one. "The Qingliu family has the best reputation. Once the news of the death of the second young master Wang is sent to Jinling, those people will definitely have countermeasures. With a heavy responsibility, The Wang family has a good reputation, and since I can't come forward, I will definitely find some unrelated outsiders to take action. Master Xie Hu is in the realm of selflessness, and now in the Jiangnan area, the only one who can help the Wang family kill people is Mingyue Tower."
"Killing people for money, I'm a good boy and I've never made any mistakes. If the Wang family really goes to Mingyue Tower, it will be a bit tricky."
The blade of the sword reflected Jun Bubai's distorted face, and he suddenly remembered the Shuangyue he met in Yangzhou's Shen family. He could transform into someone else. It was still unclear what the other people in Mingyue Tower could do. If they were all like Shuangyue, they would become People who are close to him secretly kill people. No one can prevent them. After thinking about it for a moment, he warned: "People in Mingyue Tower can look like others. Just in case, set a code word that changes every half an hour. Beware of Mingyue Tower." People took advantage of the situation and entered. "
After delivering the firewood, Lou Wanchun patted away the sawdust in his arms and tilted his head to think about it for a moment, "How about using a recipe as a code word? Most of us in this building have never been to a private school, and they can't remember the complicated code words. They are exposed to this recipe every day. I have become so familiar with it that even if someone is cheating and I take him to the kitchen and ask him to cook a dish in front of me, I can still tell the truth from the truth."
Lou Wanchun can be the host of Suzhou Tianxia Tower, which has his own merits. Junbu Bai Yujian was about to leave, his white clothes swaying in the wind, "You are the landlord of Suzhou, and this matter is decided by you."
Lou Wanchun said in shock, "Are you going out?"
Xie Husheng also had to tell him to be wary of the people in Mingyue Tower. Jun Bubai replied quickly: "Go to Taihu Lake."
Jun Bubai Yujian was about to leave, Lou Wanchun shrunk to the ground, grabbed his sleeves, and chuckled, "Master, choose a code word before you leave so that you can identify him when you come back later."
We were going to Taihu Lake. Taihu white fish is the best when it comes to making fish. Jun Bubai casually spit out the name of the dish, "Taihu fish."
Lou Wanchun got the name of the dish, silently wrote it down in his mind, and said to Jun Bubai, "I'll explain it right now."
When Lou Wanchun was doing his work, Jun Bubai felt particularly at ease and pierced the air with his sword.
After a cup of tea after Jun Bubai left, Lou Wanchun had already memorized all the names of the dishes chosen by everyone in the building. Lou Wanchun also took the time to choose a satisfactory dish name for himself, Braised Pork Head with Sauce. , fat head and big ears, a perfect match for me.
Taihu Fairy Island, a lotus pond.
It was getting late, and Jiang Xiaoyu had fallen asleep in his courtyard, holding the tiger head doll tightly in his arms. Today, I walked on the shore all day long, and my whole body was sore, which caused me to have nightmares. I kept murmuring in my sleep, crying for my father and mother.
In the courtyard, the fish pond was destroyed and the sludge was in a mess. Xie Husheng walked barefoot into the mud pond and transplanted lotus seeds dug from other fish ponds. Practicing boxing is a boring thing, and he cannot be soft-hearted. Only by being so cruel can she achieve her future success in the world.
After Xie Husheng finished cultivating lotus roots, he was covered in mud. The mud at the bottom of the pond smelled bad and made him feel top-heavy. Not wanting to stay for a moment, I took a step from Dongting to the center of Taihu Lake, washed off the mud on my body, and used my inner strength to dry my blue shirt.
Above Taihu Lake, a ray of moonlight spreads on the surface of the lake, sparkling, and fish and shrimps follow the light.
Jiang Xiaoyu practiced boxing for the first time today and didn't eat much. He had to eat enough to practice boxing tomorrow.
Xie Husheng sank into the center of the lake with one punch, and several plump Taihu white fish jumped out of the water. When she wakes up tomorrow, he will cook a pot of fish porridge for her. Fish is most delicious when it is fresh. Xie Husheng took a step back to the Dongting Courtyard and flashed back to the courtyard. He raised his fist lightly, and the filthy mud in the muddy pond sank, and the water surface became clear. He threw the Taihu white fish into the pond. There was still moonlight in the pond, and the fish were playing happily in the water. , not caring at all that this is not Taihu Lake.
When Xie Husheng turned around and returned to the house, a shadow fell into the Jiang family ancestral hall, and the extinguished bronze square tripod was ignited again.
Looking at Jiang Xiaoyu who was sleeping soundly in the room, Xie Husheng clenched his fists and stepped away from the Dongting Hall to the ancestral hall.
"You are Jiang Yuanshan now, or the one at the bottom of the lake!" Xie Husheng punched out to vent his anger.
The wind of the fist stopped behind him, and the bronze square tripod reflected Jiang Yuanshan's pale and bloodless profile. He did not look back, but still stared at the ignited fire. The fire was weak and not as strong as before, "How is my girl?"
Xie Husheng's second punch, which he intended to throw, released his strength and stopped on the spot. Jiang Xiaoyu was his weak point. "If you are worried, just go back and take a look. She will cry and call you when she falls asleep."
The flames in the square cauldron went out, and Jiang Yuanshan did not add more firewood. He reached into the cauldron and found a white flower. The white flower withered instantly and turned into dust. "There is no way to go back. The father in her heart is dead."
Xie Husheng sneered, with an indifferent expression, "It's not like he's dead, so why can't he go back?"
Jiang Yuanshan turned around and saw a few dark scales growing out of half of his face. He smiled palely and said, "If I meet her like this, I'm afraid she will be frightened."
After not seeing each other for a day, Jiang Yuanshan already looked like this. The immortality obtained by taking away other people's spiritual energy had a backlash so quickly that most of the resentment towards Jiang Yuanshan in his heart had disappeared. "What are your plans next?"
Jiang Yuanshan clasped his fists and saluted Xie Husheng, "I have a merciless request. After killing the ancestor of the Jiang family to avenge her mother, I want you to kill me. I don't want her to see me like this. I am relieved that she is following you. .”
Xie Husheng took a few steps back and refused: "I can't agree to this."
Jiang Yuanshan's eyes filled with tears, "The one in me wants to devour all the Jiang clan. If that person gets the upper hand in the future, this girl will definitely die."
Xie Husheng made a fist, murderous intent filled the air, covering the entire Taihu Lake, his eyes were firm, "As long as I am here, nothing will happen to her."
"Jiang here thanks Master Xie Hu. This kindness will never be forgotten." Jiang Yuanshan bowed to Xie Husheng and walked away silently. Where he stood, a pure petal fell.
Above Taihu Lake.
Jun Bubai walks through with his sword, the night wind is cold and flutters the corners of his clothes.
A black shadow emerged from the island. Under the moonlight, Jun Bubai saw his face and threw out a sword.
Jiang Yuanshan turned his hand to catch the sword, and a white flower bloomed. Unintentionally stopping, white flowers scattered into the middle of the lake. The Taihu Lake beneath them obeyed the call, and a water curtain rose up, stopping the two of them.
Jun Bubai used his Shizhang sword to split open the water curtain, and the mountains in the distance were no longer visible.
There was only one house on the island with light. Jun Bubai was afraid that something might happen to Xie Husheng and Jiang Xiaoyu, so he rushed there with his sword.
From the lotus pond house, Jun Bubai pressed his body down and landed on the open space of the fish pond. Only Jiang Xiaoyu was sleeping soundly in the house. He raised his left foot to step into the house.
With a breeze behind his ears, Xie Husheng took a step back to the courtyard, dispersed his fist strength, and asked with a smile: "Why did you come to Taihu Lake at this time?"
Jun Bubai took back his left foot and stepped into the house, "I have something to remind you. The news of the death of the second young master of the Wang family that you killed in Tianxialou has been sent to the Wang family in Jinling. The Wang family will most likely bribe Mingyuelou. If someone comes to trouble you, the people in Mingyue Tower can change the appearance of others, so be careful."
Xie Husheng leaned over and sat in the open space. He didn't take it to heart at all and smiled wantonly. "Thank you for reminding me. This island is quite rich with a few people buried there."
Xie Husheng was so calm, Jun Bubai said no more, crossed his arms and stood under the eaves. The shadow of the lamp swayed beneath him, "When I came here just now, I bumped into Jiang Yuanshan in the middle of the lake. How could he be on the island?"
Xie Husheng's smile faded and he punched the wooden board beside him, "He came to beg me to kill him."
In the room, Jiang Xiaoyu turned over and made some noise. Jun Bubai lowered his voice, "Do you know, little girl?"
Xie Husheng lowered his head and looked at the Taihu white fish in the pond. The scales of the fish were shining. "We can't let her know. Jiang Yuanshan and the one at the bottom of the lake entered the realm of immortality together. There was a foreign body on his face. It is estimated that in a few days, he will become inhuman." thing."
Jun Bubai took out a carpenter's chisel from his arms and threw it to Xie Husheng, "I don't know, it's good. If she knew what her father looked like, she would probably have nightmares all night long. This is the chisel left by Gongshuchi. It can break through the realm of immortality in the mountains and rivers."
Xie Husheng casually tied the chisel and held it in his palm. He turned around and glanced at Jiang Xiaoyu who was sleeping soundly in the room. He was extremely gentle and said, "It's easy to kill him. It's a pity that the little girl will have no relatives in the world."
"She still has you."
This decision was too heavy. Xie Husheng took a step into the house and came out holding two jars of wine from Jiang Yuanshan's private collection and said, "Drink some with me."
Jun Bubai moved his right hand, and a Taihu white fish was brought out of the water. The knife in his left hand was released, and the scales were removed and the bones were removed. The whole fresh fish was cut into pieces as thin as cicada wings. A clean porcelain plate flew out of the Gou Shou room, and the raw fish was piled in a circle on the plate.
A stack of balsamic vinegar, a plate of raw fish, and two jars of green wine.
The two of them were drinking in the open space of the fish pond. The pond was quiet and covered with moonlight.
On Pengze Lake, Jiangyuan Mountain stands on the ruins of Yanhanshui Village. The aura of the ancestor of the Jiang family still remains here, and the craftsmen who forged jade slips for him also left traces here.
No one has set foot in this place, so I will spend the night here today.
Jiang Yuanshan stretched out his hand and sprinkled a few white flowers. The whitebait in the lake came out of the water to hunt. The white flowers suddenly turned into branches and fished the whitebait out of the water. He grabbed it with his bare hands and chewed it into his belly.
"Jiang Yuanshan, the whitebait in Pengze Lake doesn't taste as good as the whitebait in Taihu Lake."
With a hoarse sound in his throat, Jiang Yuanshan lowered his head and looked at the lake. In the reflection, his face looked ferocious, with a mouth full of blood. He threw away the fish bones in a panic and vomited wildly.
In the reflection, another self smiled coldly.
