Chapter 304: Red Face and White Hair
"Dead!" , Xiao Hong raised his eyes in surprise and asked.
Although he didn't lean down to check, the figure of the old woman lying on the ground was shriveled, and her face and hair were a strange dull yellow, just one glance was enough to make people's hearts tremble.
"That's why I said that Zhou Manyun also wants you to come later!" , Xiao Ze hooked the corners of his mouth with a smile, arched his instep and kicked Cui Langzhen's body on his back, "I stared at her for about a moment before I called you in." ”
The current Cui Lang's true appearance is no longer like forty people, the rouge and gouache are all peeling off like a permeable wall skin, and the face is vertical and horizontal. Xiao Hong hadn't seen him in person before, and he didn't reflect it in a daze, but Xiao Ze could feel the strong impact of the contrast transformation, and grabbed Xiao Hong's arm harder.
The original delicate face of the female corpse on the ground gradually faded, and the plumping cheeks first became fleshy skin, and then the skin melted into gray bone stubble; The sideburns of a hair go from black to yellow, then from yellow to white, sparsely falling off......
"How's that, you're scared, aren't you?" , Xiao Ze took his brother's arm and laughed loudly, "If you hadn't come earlier, maybe Zhou Manyun would have drugged me, so that Cui Lang and I would be tired of it for a while." Turning the phoenix upside down, the clouds and rain in Wushan, just in the madness of the Gu fan, you can really enjoy the ultimate from red face to white hair. Pink is really going to turn into a skeleton in her arms, and she will ...... in the future It is estimated that I will never have any interest in women in my life, I just want to swing a knife into the palace as soon as possible. ”
"Brother! Manyun she ......", Xiao Hong gritted his teeth and wanted to argue in a deep voice.
"She didn't do anything wrong at all! If I count her innocence, such a punishment is light. And if it involves life, won't it be even more bloody to return blood, life for life?! Xiao Ze interrupted Xiao Hong's words, and said word by word in a hoarse voice: "Xiao Hong." Xiao Mingyun! I originally took you as an enemy this time, and I still want to divide your mortal enemy! ”
Xiao Ze's eyes were honest, and he looked motionlessly at his younger brother who was stunned when he heard the words.
The layout of the game is a gamble, betting on everyone's time and luck. The current situation is one kind of ending, and Xiao Hong's assumption just now is another. And more possibilities, Xiao Ze has also thought about them one by one. He just wants to go crazy once regardless of the consequences, and accept it regardless of life or death.
Xiao Hong was stunned for a long time, shook his head at Xiao Ze incredulously, and his backward steps hit Cui Langzhen's bones. He lowered his head, stared at the bones for a moment, and then let out a loud shout, and kicked directly at the head that was already hanging from the vertebrae.
The skull, which was as white as a few white grass stalks, arced in the air. It slammed to the ground.
The flying bones were like thorns, and with a terrifying fear, a woman's scream of terror also soared into the room, and she didn't care about her own embarrassment and dodged and crawled away.
"Miss!" , Qi's mother rushed out of the house in a panic and rushed towards the main house without fear. After all, she is a child who has grown up with her own milk, and listening to the sound is enough to tear her heart.
The door opened, and the scorching sun instantly sprinkled a handful of golden needles into the claustrophobic room.
Xiao Ze narrowed his eyes, and his gaze slashed at He Minglan, who was hugged tightly by Qi's mother. I wondered when the woman would wake up. Did you hear something?
"Come out!" , Zhou Manyun also rushed over when he heard the sound. But he only dragged his husband, who was secretly angry, and hurriedly withdrew out of the door.
A woman who is still upright and upright in causing trouble! Xiao Ze glanced at Man Yun's figure, smiled indifferently, and followed the stride out, leaving the room where the corpses were still abandoned to the He family's master and servant.
There were new visitors in the small courtyard, and at first Xiao Hongsa went to monitor the spies from all walks of life, but they came one after another to report the situation in and out of the city.
Tianxiang Garden in Luojing City and Tianxiang Garden in Cuirun Courtyard in the western suburbs have all been taken down according to the prior agreement. It is estimated that there are at most three or two small fish that have slipped through the net. And several other Xiao family brothers in the city have not moved, they should be busy with official business, and they should have closed their doors to think about it, and even Xiao Laosan also detained a few messengers from Tianxiangyuan and escorted them to Xiao Rui, King Jing.
Maybe it's all because of Xiaoliu's kindness. But the potential pustule is just covered up with grease and powder. I don't know when it will be hideous again.
Xiao Ze sighed secretly, but gave the first order to the soldiers who gave the order after he regained command from Xiao Hong's hands, "Inform the city that Cui Lang of Tianxiangyuan is really a spy of the Han Kingdom, and he wants to do misdeeds and plot to rebel." Now that he has absconded, he has been ordered to be searched! Whoever conceals him or his accomplices is guilty of the same crime......"
The crime of collaborating with the enemy and rebelling against the enemy will punish the nine clans!
Man Yun couldn't help but think of the pile of women's corpses thrown by the major families in Luojing City in his previous life, clasped his hands on his lips, and felt sick to his stomach for a while.
Xiao Hong, who was entangled and uncomfortable by his eldest brother's heart-piercing words, couldn't care about self-pity, and hurriedly took his wife into his arms, stroked his back and touched his ears, and comforted him warmly.
There was a grudge, but Xiao Hong's secretly admiring gaze couldn't help but glance at the eldest brother's cold side face again. Xiao Ze forcibly suppressed the news of Cui Langzhen's death and immediately arrested the murderer, and also detained the felony of collaborating with the enemy, not only did the government and the opposition have to quickly cut off their involvement, but also if they planned to use troops against Han in the future, they also had a ready-made reason.
Enemy! For Xiao Hong, the enemy that sparked the most interest was outside Xiao Hong's walls.
After a series of orders, he even asked the attendants to go to the temple to quickly pass on the vegetarian food. Xiao Ze calmly and calmly personally put the food in front of Xiao Hong and his wife, showing the thoughtfulness of the eldest brother who is in charge.
It stands to reason that he just had an unhappy quarrel with his eldest brother, and he shouldn't have eaten and eaten, but for the sake of Man Yun and the child, forget it for the time being. Xiao Hongweng, who was awkward in his heart, thanked him, picked up a small spoon and poured vegetable juice into Manyun's rice first......
If you change yourself, you can't treat a woman like this, right? The corners of Xiao Ze's mouth hooked a sarcastic smile, and he looked at the genuine loving little couple opposite.
"Zhou!" , Xiao Ze couldn't help but drink Manyun who was drinking soup again, and seeing her pretentiousness with her husband on the side, he couldn't help but choke and cover his mouth and coughed: "You change the clothes on your body to He Minglan after eating, and I'll take her down the mountain first!" You two are on your own...... Xiao Hong, you still let her wear men's clothes...... Then, you can take someone to visit Cuirun later! ”
After thinking about it, Xiao Ze also thought that He Minglan still had some usefulness and could continue to use it.
The group walked down the mountain along the morning incense road.
The majestic brocade-clothed boy, the tall lady wearing a long curtain hat, and the intimate old servant in Tsing Yi...... On the way back, I stayed several times to talk with the pilgrims and tourists I met on the way. He went out of the mountain gate and sincerely thanked the great intellectuals who sent him off, and remade an appointment to send Zeng Xu to the temple gate.
There are idlers who are good at peeling off the cocoon and taking care of boring things in a circle in the monk's pile, and after a while, they begin to show off to their acquaintances or strangers.
At first, all that spread was that he actually bumped into the future prince Jinxiang's "Good girl!" ", and then it was more meticulous to peel off the skin and bones under the promotion of people with a heart, Xiao Ze, the son of King Jing, snatched the incense of the sun, but it was to please the beauties around him. The only favored concubine was born in the He family in Luzhou......
The afternoon sun shines back in Tallinn. It seems to gild the white pagoda, which shows the solemnity of the spiritual pagoda of the Nirvana monk.
The scene seen by the laity, and some people choose to come here, do they want to see the life and death that they can't see through......
Zhou Manyun stood in front of a pot-shaped floating temple, her eyes closed, thinking about the days and nights that would make her reincarnate again. Xiao Hong held her hand tightly, and closed her eyes in the same way.
"Manyun!" , Gently shaking Man Yun's little hand, Xiao Hong said in a low voice: "Just now I scolded the eldest brother with you for a long time for being cold. But now I think he, he's like ......"
Indescribable feeling. According to common sense, it can only be said that Xiao Ze suddenly went crazy, and he did not hesitate to gamble with his life, but he repeated his reason in the end.
"He said he saw me as a mortal enemy. But in fact, no, I thought about it carefully, if he hadn't handed over the talisman to Mr. Wei but to Han Daofang, I might have been taken down and imprisoned like the fourth brother now. ”。 Xiao Hong sighed lightly, as if he was afraid that Man Yun would not understand. He explained in detail, "Just like fighting against the enemy, the time and place are favorable, but the most difficult thing to control is people." As long as the people who do things are different, the results will be different......"
is also Xiao Ze's cronies, and Han Daofang is more astute. Also better at intrigue. If the letter reaches him, he will have his own way of discerning the letter, even if he does not open it. The first choice will not be to obey Xiao Hong, but to sue Xiao Rui for the first time. questioned whether there was a trap in Xiao Hong's trust, or whether Xiao Ze was coerced by him at all.
But Wei Yuanrang is a kind elder, and he has cooperated with Xiao Hong in battle, and he has always been good to him.
"Even if I had any bad thoughts at the time, Mr. Wei would have tried his best to persuade me. I won't watch me being reprimanded by my father or even with an axe because of my private military power. So I think big brother ......"
"You think he was purely controlled by Cui Lang's true poisonous Gu, so it was against the norm to behave?"
"Hmm!", Xiao Hong replied lightly and didn't speak again, wanting to let Man Yun forgive his eldest brother's plea for this reason he had worked so hard to find, but he couldn't say it without a sense of guilt for a while.
"Just now, before he took He Minglan away, he asked me a cold sentence, saying that he 'forgot about Monk Xiankong'!" , Zhou Manyun opened his sparkling starry eyes, turned his face to Xiao Hong, and said softly: "He should mean that there are some things, I don't have to mention it to you." But I've thought about it here and I've thought about it, and I still think I should be open and honest with you. ”
Xiao Hong blinked and squeezed Man Yun's hand tighter.
"At first, I also thought that he chose June 15 and the Great Mercy and Grace Temple, because this is the day of his father's death and the place where he is located. But just after watching the fourth brother and Xiaoba being sent away, he remembered that June 15 of the fifteenth year of Yongde was also the day when the sons of Xiaozong took the heir. The assassination and countercalculation of Emperor Taiye and the two kings of Qi and Jin are very similar to today's situation, right? ”
"So the eldest brother deliberately put the incident date on the same day?"
"If you think about it according to the idea of a madman who doesn't care even if he destroys himself, he does mean it! He deliberately wanted to see which of us would die today. Man Yun hid a wisp of unbearability in his eyes, and laughed in a low voice: "According to the 'Xiankong Monk', the ancestor died for you, so let's see if you can escape again, or who will pay for your life again......"
"Father-in-law died for me?" , Xiao Honghuo turned around and clasped Man Yun's shoulders and stared at her incredulously.
Or perhaps, in a sense, he and Xiao Ze, who are tender on the outside and Jiao on the inside, are the same kind of crazy people who are hidden in the crowd. Zhou Manyun, who knew that he guessed that Xiao Ze's thoughts were not too bad, pursed his lips and nodded seriously. (To be continued......)
