After Xiao Zixuan left the steamed bun tea restaurant, he found a remote alley, took off his mask, and then walked out again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In any case, five thousand taels of silver did not have white flowers, at least Xiao Zixuan knew about his relationship with Nanling. In addition, the scene he recalled when he fell into Lanyue Lake and was on the verge of drowning also has a preliminary explanation: the reason why "Xiao Zixuan" slaughtered more than a dozen old and weak women and children must be related to the restoration of the Great Xia Dynasty, but he didn't dare to ask Mr. Seven about the specific relationship.

Originally, the third question he prepared was: why did Xiao Zixuan become Liu Weiding's righteous son. But just as he was about to blurt out his words, an inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly came to his heart.

Five thousand taels of silver, you can ask Xiao Zixuan's identity, which is definitely not good news for Xiao Zixuan. What's more, he himself is involved in the "Nanling" organization that intends to rebel, and once this news leaks out, I am afraid that he will not escape death even if he puts on his wings.

Xiao Zixuan frowned solemnly, and his lips, which were as thin as cicada wings, were as pale as ice.

In the short term, he must not visit Mantou Qingcha again, because if he continues to ask questions about Xiao Zixuan, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of Mantou Qingcha! He seems to have reached a new impasse.

Suddenly, Xiao Zixuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light, he still has a way - to find Zhao Weimin!

That day, Xiao Zixuan eavesdropped on the conversation of Cao Xiankui and the four, and accidentally discovered that Zhao Weimin actually knew the whereabouts of Wu Yuman's mother! This is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for Xiao Zixuan!

He must seize this opportunity, on the one hand, turn the passive into the active, and prevent being calculated by the other three horse merchants; On the other hand, it is necessary to find out the whereabouts of Wu Yuman's mother in order to find out his identity.

No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, he must grit his teeth and not back down. Xiao Zixuan is indeed a cowardly person, but he is definitely unwilling to sit still!

――――

It is a chic courtyard.

does not grow peaches and plums, and thinks it is weak; does not grow pines and cypresses, and thinks they are ugly; does not grow peonies, and thinks it is gaudy; Not Changchun plum, think it is high.

All that catches your eye is the red color of the garden. Extending from the horizon to the feet, it is like the first Buddha light in the world on the sacred mountain in the Western Regions, and it is like a long river of blood on the battlefield. This kind of red is a pure red without variegation, masculine to the point that good and evil do not invade, and feminine to the point that it is as glamorous as blood.

Kapok.

It is said that the kapok was originally the golden robe of Shakyamuni. One day Shakyamuni said the Dharma in the Vulture Mountain, showing the public with flowers, when everyone was silent, only the Venerable Kakya Ye smiled, and the World-Honored One said: "I have the Dharma Eye Hidden, Nirvana Wonderful Heart, Reality without Phase, Subtle Method, do not set up words, do not teach outside the teaching, pay the Mokokya Leaf." ”

His Holiness Kasa received the mantle of the Buddha, and since then, this golden robe has become the Zen faith robe for future generations of Buddhist disciples to worship - kapok robe.

Looking into the courtyard, among the tall and majestic kapok trees, two people were standing.

The one on the left, with thin eyebrows and thin lips, long flowing hair, a simple long sword at his waist, and a broad and square face, is a dignified middle-aged man.

The person on the right hand, with his back bent, his face is yellow, he has no eyebrows, he should be a shabby and ugly old man, but at this time he looks like a hidden monk.

"Childe." The old slave hunched his waist and squeezed out a withered smile on his face: "This garden of kapok has finally bloomed again, and it is in vain that the old slave waters and prunes every day, and finally can take another look at this pure red......

"Hehe......" The middle-aged man in his forties and fifties with gray hair on his sideburns shook his head, and he didn't care if he was called Gongzi: "Iron slave, the kapok trees in this yard have grown for twenty or thirty years, why do you need to water them every day?" I think you're old and confused! ”

The iron slave nodded hurriedly and said: "Childe, the old slave's head is rusty, and his memory is no longer what it used to be, you can forgive me for any offense." This man is old, looking at the creatures in the yard, he always wants to take care of it as much as he can, and he used to kill people and set fires without blinking, but now he has to feel distressed for a long time when he steps on a weed......"

The middle-aged man laughed loudly: "Hahaha! The so-called put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot. When I planted this garden full of red cotton, didn't I hope to put a red cotton robe on myself? But the red cotton tree is very spiritual, and until you swim across the sea of suffering to the other side, it will never let you see the divine Buddha light. ”

Tienu pursed his lips and said bitterly: "Childe, kapok, after all, it is the flower of the south of the Yangtze River, and the robe is also the skin of the Buddha after all." With a hot spring, we nourish the kapok all over the yard, and we can indeed make them bloom as enchanting as Jiangnan. But what spring water do we take to cleanse our souls? ”

Kapok, born in the south, grew up in the south. Could it be that the nobility and holiness it contains can only grow in the land of the south, and cannot descend to the dry and dry northwest?

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and sighed, "Iron slave, you are really old......

"Don't accept the old, no! When San'er gets married, it's time for me to leave......"

The middle-aged man's eyes were sour, and he took a long breath, but finally held back his tears: "Yixuan, she is about to get married, and in ten days, she will become a member of the He family!" ”

Tie Nu's eyes narrowed into a slit, and a terrifying light erupted in his cloudy pupils: "I hope so!" If anyone dares to make any moths in the middle, the skeleton of the old decay is about to sink into the ground, but it will have to move again......"

The middle-aged man smiled lightly: "There will be no mistakes." Yixuan will definitely marry happily and leave you and me happily. ”

Tie Nu waved his hand and said, "Childe, the old slave heard that Xiao Zixuan has never been in and out of Liufu in recent days. ”

The middle-aged man's heavy eyebrows gradually tightened: "What tricks is he doing again?!" ”

"How did the second child discipline him?! At this juncture, he actually dared to run out and wander, in case of delaying the matter over there in Nanling, how do you ask me to explain?! ”

Tie Nu smiled, revealing a broken tooth: "Although Xiao Zixuan is arrogant and unruly, he has always been calm and cautious in the face of major events, and he will definitely not make any mistakes. ”

The middle-aged man snorted coldly, and finally did not ask any more questions.

……

"You wicked woman! Dare to murder Xiao Zixuan and Xiao Gongzi on the street! Are you guilty?! ”

I saw that the wide and bright state yamen had been blocked at this time, and countless onlookers crowded outside the door, even if the yamen with sticks dispersed again and again, it was difficult to stop the monstrous anger of the people.

The state yamen is magnificent and magnificent, there is a ring stone in the south of the main hall, and it is engraved with "Erfeng Erlu, the people anoint the people, the people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive". In the center is a plaque with a "mirror hanging", and two silent and avoidant signs are supported on each side.

At this time, the official who was trying the female prisoner was Liu Dedu, the magistrate of Yongzhou. As a magistrate, he was in charge of Yongzhou's local justice, prison litigation and part of the financial audit work, and he interrogated ordinary criminals in Yongzhou City.

"Liu Dedu, you dog official! It's shameless, and he works for the tiger all day long! Obviously, Xiao Zixuan, the dog thief, wanted to be a street rape and slander Li Wan'er, Li Wan'er inadvertently injured Xiao Zixuan in order to protect herself, and she was said to be a murder, what is the reason? ! In the center of the crowd, a big man with thick limbs scolded angrily, his muscles stacked like hills.

"That's right! Liu Dedu, you dog official dare to collude with profiteers, I don't know how many benefits you received from Xiao Zixuan, right?! Another lean man's eyes rolled and he agreed.

"Silence!" Liu Dedu was so angry that his nose was about to be crooked, and he slapped the table frantically and scolded: "You Diao people, if you talk too much, I will convict you as an accomplice to assisting Li Wan'er in murder!" ”

"I can't stand it anymore, old man, big guy doesn't see it! Liu Dedu has obviously been bought by Xiao Zixuan, old man, let me tell you, not only that, Li Wan'er's entire family has been assassinated by Xiao Zixuan! At this moment, I am afraid that Xiao Zixuan, the thief, is still lying on the bed, and I don't know which woman from a good family is raping! An old man with a gray beard trembled uncontrollably, and was almost foaming at the mouth with anger.

"What?!" The crowd erupted.

"Li Wan'er's family is really all dead?!"

"Yes, yes, fourteen people up and down, even two-year-old children have not been spared......"

"Do you know how Li Wan'er's mother died? He was raped alive by the wicked and died in turn, and when he died, his lower body was gushing with blood, and the two lumps of flesh on his chest had already been ripped off by the wicked, and the two bloody holes were there! ”

"Damn, Xiao Zixuan, this dog thief! It's just intolerable! ”

"Arrest Xiao Zixuan! Punish Xiao Demon Man! In the chaos, I don't know who suddenly shouted, and the audience fell silent.

An instant later, hundreds of people outside the yamen shouted at the same time: "Arrest Xiao Zixuan!" Punish Xiao Demon Man! ”

"Arrest Xiao Zixuan! Punish Xiao Demon Man! ”

"Arrest Xiao Zixuan! Punish Xiao Demon Man! ”

Liu Dedu trembled angrily, and he shouted: "You Diao people, you dare to slander Xiao Zixuan's son, come on, arrest them all for me, arrest them all!" ”

"Your Excellency!" A servant knelt on the ground suddenly: "The people are angry, you must not be impulsive!" ”

"Yes! I hope adults will think twice! ”

The whole house knelt down at the same time, all of them had blood-red eyes, their eyes were about to split, their duty was to uphold justice, and the plaque of "Mirror Hanging" was still hanging above their heads, so how could they coldly watch the last bloodline of Li Wan'er's family being murdered by Xiao Zixuan? !

Liu Dedu's goatee couldn't stop shaking: "Okay, okay." Come on, give me a big punishment to serve, I see that Li Wan'er, the evil girl, admits her guilt or not! ”

"Fifty canes first!"

"My lord, the sinner has already been interrogated and is unconscious, and if she fights another fifty battles, she will really die!"

"I hope that my lord will see it!"

Liu Dedu's color suddenly became gloomy, Li Wan'er couldn't die in his court, otherwise he, the magistrate, would not be able to shirk his responsibility; But she can't not die, otherwise the conspiracy to harm Xiao Zixuan is very likely to fail.

He stroked his beard, suddenly had a plan, and said with a sneer: "Put the sinner Li Wan'er into the Teaching Division, I have made up my mind, quit!" ”

At this moment, above the public court, Li Wan'er, who was unconscious, was already bleeding like a river......
