Peach Blossom Waterside Pavilion.
Lin Jianfeng stared coldly at the escaping maid, a faint red blood flashing in his eyes.
Suddenly, there was a muffled thunderclap under his feet, and white mist quickly dispersed around him. In an instant, he was tens of feet away. The speed was so fast that it was incredible.
Before everyone could catch up, they saw the slender chain in Lin Jianfeng's hand shaking out like a poisonous snake's head like lightning.
Ding ding ding ding!
The sound was endless, and the chain stretched to the end, and the hook at the end cut through the air in a large arc, twisting in the air like a poisonous snake with eyes, and hooked directly towards the escaping maid.
It can be said that it is a poisonous snake, but it is actually inappropriate, because when the hook roared through the air, there was a faint sound of a tiger roaring. The rapid movement just now was at most a tiger's hunting sprint.
The maid had obviously run behind a big rock, but she couldn't avoid the sudden hook.
In her eyes, it was like a man-eating tiger pounced upon her.
She collapsed to the ground, screaming in hysterical fear.
The next moment...
Bang! ! !
There was a loud sound of weapons clashing, and a cloud of white mist exploded about a foot away from the maid's side, as if two air currents fighting between dragons and tigers collided with each other, causing an explosion that made the eardrums buzz.
It was only then that everyone reacted and looked at this scene in astonishment and bewilderment.
What blocked the hook was a spear with an ash shaft.
Wei Yao had a stern look on his face, dressed in white, and with a movement of his body, he actually stepped over ten feet and came to the gun.
Hold it tightly and pull it out.
Then he held a gun and stopped coldly beside the maid.
She has no connection with this maid, but she just doesn't want to see weak people being killed at will.
She may not be able to save the suffering in the world, but she can save the innocent lives in front of her. This is a knight.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and there was a sense of tension.
Lin Jianfeng's eyes seemed to be filled with murderous intent. He stared hard at Wei Yao and then at Li Xuan.
Cao Wen didn't care at all and was not frightened. He shouted: "Xiao Linzi, we are guests, what are you doing?!"
Lin Jianfeng was stunned when he heard the voice, as if he thought of something, and murmured to himself: "Guest...guest...yes, guest!"
"My... my guest!"
After shouting, he raised his hand and shook it, and the hook returned to his waist like a long snake returning to its hole, and coiled up like a magic trick.
Then, with a smile on his face, he said boldly: "Why don't you thank the guest?"
The maid was so horrified that she had not recovered from the fright.
Wei Yao bent down and pulled her, and then she stood up.
Before the maid could stand up straight, she knelt down in the dust again and kowtowed to Wei Yao.
After kowtow, she didn't even bother to get up, and moved on the ground again, turned to Lin Jianfeng, and said repeatedly: "Thank you... eldest... eldest son, thank you eldest son!!"
Lin Jianfeng seemed to be in a much better mood, waved his hand and said, "Go."
The maid stood up and ran away in a hurry.
Lin Jianfeng looked at the crowd again, clasped his fists and said, "Everyone, Lin didn't treat me well, I'm sorry."
Some of these people knew the situation, while others were completely confused. Lin Jianfeng's attack just now was extremely terrifying.
Li Xuan didn't look at Wei Yao who had returned, but just twirled the wine glass and sipped Baihua Nong.
Wei Yao, on the other hand, was not squinting, standing behind him with a gun.
...
moment.
Everyone seemed to have forgotten the scene just now, and they drank and drank.
The banquet began.
Lin Jianfeng disappeared.
He hurriedly confessed that he was going to find his wife.
Li Xuan looked at Cao Wen beside him and said, "Brother Cao..."
Cao Wen lowered his voice and said: "The people from the Qinghe Cao Gang should have told you that it was not Lin Jianfeng, but his brother Lin Jianniu.
He has always wanted to replace Lin Jianfeng's identity. "
Li Xuandao: "Is the Lin family so conniving?"
Cao Wendao said: "Lin Jie Niu is Mr. Su's disciple. Mr. Su said that he needs to be let go and no matter what he does, don't ask or take care of him. In this way, Lin Jie Niu will slowly grow into a being who can slay demons.
The Lin family is happy with the success, and everyone familiar with the matter is happy with the success.
At most, some maids and servants will die, and a few more people will be sacrificed.
If this can be exchanged for a master, it will be worth it. "
Wei Yao's hand holding the gun suddenly tightened.
Li Xuan smiled and said: "It is indeed worth it."
After saying that, he felt something cold on the back of his head, as if a cold gaze was staring at him.
The second brother, who had been listening quietly with his ears pricked up, seemed to understand.
As a result, the second brother, who had read and believed in the sages' books, became angry and raised his voice: "A gentleman has something to do, and..."
He only said a few words when Li Xuan casually grabbed a chicken leg and stuffed it into his wide-open mouth.
Cao Wen laughed and said, "Brother Li is such a wonderful person. It seems that we were born to be friends."
Li Xuan raised his glass.
The two touched it and drank it each.
Li Xuandao: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed. I thought I could serve the king by becoming a martial arts master. Unexpectedly... I'm just a toad sitting in a well watching the sky."
Cao Wen laughed and said, "If Brother Li is a toad, then wouldn't I also be a toad?"
The two looked at each other and laughed, and they seemed to be in the same boat.
After laughing, Cao Wen moved his position and came close to Li Xuan. He smiled and whispered: "Brother Li, don't be humble. The girl you are bringing is also a master like Lin Jie Niu. How could you not know the secret?" Wu?
Before, I thought that your Li family background was shallow, but today I realized...it's me, Cao, who is short-sighted. "
Secret weapon?
Li Xuan remembered it in his heart, and soon the two started talking again.
Actually, this gathering is called a poetry gathering and a literary gathering.
But we are all children of powerful families, and only fools talk about poetry.
This is pulling a circle.
Obviously, Li Xuan has successfully entered this circle.
Everyone was chatting enthusiastically when suddenly another beautiful figure hurriedly ran towards her in the distance, wearing a green dress and disheveled hair, running around as if she had lost her soul in fear.
After running to the open-air banquet, she hid directly under the curtain of the table regardless of her identity.
She just hid, but in the distance she saw "Lin Jieniu disguised as Lin Jianfeng" running towards her, shouting: "Where is my sister-in-law? Where is my sister-in-law?"
The young man who hid Yao Xiaoxiao on the table smiled and lifted the tablecloth. He was about to speak, but saw that Yao Xiaoxiao had disappeared.
So, everyone started to look under their desks in surprise.
Li Xuan also lifted the corner of the table curtain and looked down.
At this sight, he was stunned.
Mrs. Lin unexpectedly hid under his table at some point, and met his gaze with a panicked look full of pleading.
But what's the use of begging?
She... had long been regarded as a "sacrifice" and given up by everyone.
She hated it, but there was nothing she could do about it.
She wanted to die, but was afraid of death.
She asked for help, but no one helped her.
The young ladies and gentlemen around him began to laugh and make noises.
"Master Lin, I'm not here."
"Not here with me either."
Li Xuan laughed and said, "I don't have one here either."
Yao Xiaoxiao, who was hiding under the tablecloth, was stunned for a moment, and her whole body trembled. This was the first time she felt kindness from an outsider.
After witnessing all this, Wei Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and the boulder that had been hanging in her heart also fell.
She was really afraid that the young master would hand him over directly.
She really didn't know if she could continue to follow such a young man.
...
Lin Jie Niu looked around, not doubting that he was there, and started running quickly. As he ran, he shouted frantically: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, come out, come out, I am my brother! Come out!"
Cao Wen stroked his forehead and suppressed a laugh. When he saw Li Xuan looking at him, he couldn't help but laugh. Then he pointed to his head, indicating that "there is something wrong with Lin Jie Niu's brain."
Li Xuan also smiled and opened his legs at the same time to block the gaps on both sides of the curtain so that Yao Xiaoxiao could hide it better.
...
...
On the other side, Lin Jieniu ran everywhere, but couldn't find Yao Xiaoxiao.
He grew angrier and more confused.
While Li Xuan was eating the food and wine, he heard screams in the distance. He thought it was Lin Jieniu who was taking someone to vent his anger, but he didn't know whether he beat or killed him.
The servant has signed a contract to sell himself, so even if he dies, it doesn't matter. What's more... this Yanziwu is a powerful force in the world, and the government will not care about it.
Let's say that Lin Jieniu went around Yanziwu, but not only did he not find Yao Xiaoxiao, he also didn't find Yao Xiaoxiao's personal maid.
His figure was like lightning, and he turned towards the screen wall in front of the door, wanting to check outside.
As soon as he arrived at Zhaobi, he was overjoyed because he actually saw Yao Xiaoxiao's personal maid.
The maid stood there trembling, and when she saw him she was so frightened that she knelt down.
Lin Jieniu flicked the hook, and the soft iron chain tightened directly. The tip of the hook shone with a cold light and pressed against the maid's neck.
A cold voice sounded: "Where is my sister-in-law?"
The maid said: "Husband... Madam... Madam, she ran to Luoshimen. She... she said she would rather die than see you."
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Lin Jie Niu let out an angry roar, then violently rushed out of the gate and headed northwest.
The kneeling maid turned her head to look at Lin Jie Niu who was running away. She was a little confused and seemed to have never expected that he was so easy to deceive.
The next moment...
The maid disappeared into the air without leaving any trace.
