My questions seemed to come out of my mouth like a barrage of questions. However, Xiong Ming seemed to have a deep hatred for me. He glanced at me and said nothing. After that, Xiong Ming slowly turned around and faced me. Qiang remained silent, except for rubbing his ribs with his left hand.
Apparently, if I guessed correctly, the person who was fighting with me at the corner just now was none other than Xiong Ming.
But the problem is, Xiong Ming and I have fought countless fights for various reasons since we were young, but he has never looked at me like this.
This can't help but fill my mind with question marks.
I looked at Xiong Ming. Before I could speak, Hua Muling beside me spoke first, "Are you awake?"
What surprised me was that Hua Muling's tone was also very cold, so cold that we were not friends who had experienced life and death together, but enemies who had the hatred of killing each other's father.
I looked at Hua Muling and asked with a confused face: "Fourth girl, why do you have this attitude towards me? What's going on? What happened to you before?"
Hua Muling looked at me, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at me as if she were a monster. After a while, she continued: "Have you forgotten what happened before?"
Monk Zhang Er was confused and looked at Hua Muling and asked loudly: "Fourth girl, what are you talking about?"
My voice was so loud that I suddenly woke up Xiao Niya who was sleeping.
Xiaonia got up from Hua Muling's arms, looked around, and murmured: "Sister Hua, where are you?"
Xiao Niya turned her head and rubbed her eyes as she spoke. The next second, she and I made eye contact.
As a result, what I didn't expect at all was that Xiao Niya screamed "Ouch" as if she had seen a ghost, and shouted at the top of her voice: "He...he found us after all."
Xiao Niya's words made me even more confused. I waved my hands quickly and said: "Wait a minute! Wait a minute! What are you talking about? I asked you, can any of you tell me what's going on? What's the matter? Why do you feel like you've seen a ghost when you see me?"
Xiong Ming remained silent. At this time, he suddenly turned around and looked at me with a murderous look on his face.
Xiong Ming took a long time to regain his strength, and it was obvious that he was trying to control his emotions.
After a while, Xiong Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Did you really forget it? Or are you here pretending to be stupid with your Grandpa Xiong?"
I looked at Xiong Ming and asked with an innocent expression: "Dali Xiong, what are you going to say?"
Xiong Ming grabbed my collar and pulled me forcefully in front of him.
I looked at Xiong Ming's bloodshot eyes, and Xiong Ming was also looking at me. His mouth was full of the stench left after burning tobacco.
But Xiong Ming didn't shy away at all. He breathed into my face one after another. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said slowly: "We have been brothers for so many years. I didn't expect you to be such a person. Why are you Want to harm us? Why harm our family? Why do you do this? Why...?"
The more Xiong Ming talked, the more excited he became, and he strangled my neck with both hands.
Xiong Ming's strength was so great that in an instant I felt that all the air in my chest had been squeezed out.
I was shocked and hurriedly broke Xiong Ming's wrist with my hands, but at this time Xiong Ming seemed to be crazy. No matter how hard I tried, Xiong Ming just strangled my neck and wouldn't let go, as if he could strangle me to death. It made him angry.
Hua Muling on the side saw this and shouted hurriedly: "Xiong Ming, what are you going to do? Let go!"
But at this time, Xiong Ming could not hear what Hua Muling said. Xiong Ming gritted his teeth and said, "What do I want to do? Do you need to ask? Of course I want to kill this guy!"
After saying that, Xiong Ming pressed harder on his hands, and for a while, short videos began to appear in my consciousness. But strangely, at this moment, countless pictures that were not originally in my memory began to emerge in my mind.
I couldn't help but be shocked, "What's going on?"
But how can I think about these useless details in this situation?
Xiong Ming's big hands were like two big iron pliers, clasping my neck tightly. My eyes began to turn black, the things I could see began to blur a little bit, and my consciousness also decreased as the air in my abdominal cavity decreased. The dots began to dissipate.
At this moment, there was a sudden "crack" sound of broken pottery. Then, Xiong Ming's body was shaken and he fell sideways.
As soon as Xiong Ming's hand was light, a large amount of air poured into my chest as if it was free of charge. I sucked in the air greedily, and it took a while before I came back to my senses.
I looked up and found that the person who knocked Xiong Ming unconscious was Hua Muling.
I covered my neck with my hands and coughed for a while before I managed to squeeze out two words from my mouth, "Thank you!"
"No need to thank me. I only saved you because there are some things that I haven't figured out yet."
After Hua Muling finished speaking, she threw the broken pottery pot into the corner. With a "crash", the remaining pottery pot broke into seven or eight petals.
I curiously looked towards the corner and discovered that there had been piles of broken clay pots somewhere.
What makes me even more incredible is that the clay pots piled in the corner are exactly the same as those in Hua Muling's hands before.
Hua Muling didn't seem to notice anything special about the pottery jars in the corner. After throwing it away, she looked at me intently.
Hua Muling looked at me, and I looked at her.
After a long time, Hua Muling finally said: "Hu Tian, why did you do this? Why did you lie to us? And... why... why did you want our lives?"
Hua Muling's words were like thunder, exploding in my ears with a "boom".
I looked at Hua Muling with wide eyes and asked in surprise: "What do you mean by this? Although we haven't known each other for a long time, we can be considered extremely hypocritical. Do you think I, Hu Tian, am that kind of person?" How could I, Hu Tian, kill my friend like that?"
Hua Muling looked at me, her eyes full of complex emotions, including confusion, sadness, and even a hint of disbelief.
After a while, Hua Muling slowly lowered her head and said, "But why did what happened before happen?"
It can be said that Hua Muling's words completely confused me. I looked at Hua Muling and said in surprise: "Fourth girl, what do you mean by this? Can you explain it clearly? Can you tell me what happened to you before? What happened?"
Hua Muling looked at me, her eyes still had that complicated expression, and she didn't speak.
After a while, Hua Muling finally nodded, slowly sat next to me, and explained what happened after we separated.
It turned out that after much trouble, Hua Muling waited for me by the river for a long time while Xiong Ming and Xiao Niya were injured. But I was not seen for a long time, and it was not until the old woman in charge of the ferry came back that she found out that I had been killed by a river demon and fell into the river. It was probably a disaster.
Hua Muling was extremely sad when she heard the news, but at this moment, the poison in Xiong Ming's body began to act, and black blood spurted out in large mouthfuls, and his life was in danger for a while.
In order to save Xiong Ming, Hua Muling had no choice but to go to Wanfu Tower first to find Liu Siniang who could cure Xiong Ming's injuries.
But what Hua Muling never expected was that Liu Siniang was not in Wanfu Tower at this time, but was out on business.
Only the seventh of eight sisters, Huo Qiniang, remained in Wanfu Tower.
Huo Qiniang seemed to have known for a long time that Hua Muling and his party were coming to Wanfu Tower. The moment she saw Hua Muling and the others, she cleared out hundreds of guests in Wanfu Tower.
You know, Wanfu Tower has always been about profit, and these people are the God of Wealth of Wanful Tower. To be able to invite them out, there must be a greater value behind this matter than these people put together.
Huo Qiniang is a stunningly beautiful woman. She looks like Qiu Shuzhen, has a slightly romantic temperament, and has an extremely graceful figure. Even if she is nearly fifty years old, she still looks very charming, even if she is in her twenties. The young man passed her by and couldn't help but look at her more.
Huo Qiniang always didn't like to talk too much, and she always said her words only once. After she welcomed Hua Muling and the others into Wanfu Tower, she just said softly in the middle of the hall, "Okay, everyone! Today, Let's just stop here! Wanfu Tower is closed to welcome guests! As for when Wanful Tower will open to welcome guests, Qiniang will naturally send someone to inform you."
After saying that, Huo Qiniang left without looking back, leaving only a group of guests looking at each other.
There was someone here who knew the rules of Wanfulou. Without saying a word, he silently packed up his things, reluctantly said goodbye to the girl he loved next to him, then turned around and left.
Some people seemed to not care at all. Relying on their high status in the outside world and their strong family background, they did not take Huo Qiniang and Wanfu Tower seriously.
Therefore, after Huo Qiniang finished speaking, not only did they not move, but they mocked: "Huh! A slave girl who sells her body, can she speak so arrogantly now?"
Another young man echoed from the side: "That's right! Don't even look at who we are! You want me to leave with just a few words? How can it be so easy? Master, I won't do it today." gone!"
When another young man next to him heard this, Cheng Cheng Weifeng, in order to get in front of the girl he liked, also shouted: "That's right! I won't fucking leave if I'm so strong! I'm the God of Wealth of your Wanfu Tower. Why don't you ask me, who am I? Are you trying to drive me away? You are so brave!"
Seeing this group of people shouting in Wanfu Tower, the middle-aged people who came out early could not help but sigh and said: "Hey! These kids really don't know how high the sky is!"
Another middle-aged man without much hair followed up and said: "Yeah! Let alone them, even if they come, won't they end up like the rest of us? In this world, who can follow us?" Wanfu Tower is against us? Who is going to be against Wanfu Tower?"
A gray-haired old man beside him said: "This little brother is right! Okay! Let's leave quickly! We'll save a few of us later!"
"That's right! That's right! Let's go! Let's go!"
