Li Bai was about to get angry, when he suddenly heard a voice behind him: "Mr. Jin really doesn't know Mount Tai, this is the famous King of Lantian, should Mr. Jin be rejected from the door?" ”

The two looked back, and there was an old man behind them, and Li Tao saluted and said, "I don't know if the predecessor is ......."

"The old man is Yuan Feng, the head of the Falling Flower Knife Sect!" The old man happily returned the salute.

"Master Yuan has seen you?" Li Tao asked.

"Not long ago, the old man went to Chang'an and happened to witness the demeanor of the king of Lantian in the West Market!"

Li Tao nodded.

Yuan Feng took out the invitation card and said: "Mr. Jin, the Sword Casting Villa only sends out a dozen invitations, and the invitations are naturally all heroes and heroes. But when it comes to heroes, King Lantian is no worse than them at all, why don't you be accommodating and invite them in? ”

Steward Jin wiped the sweat from his forehead and said uneasily: "I naturally know the prestige of King Lantian, but the people invited to the banquet this time are all old friends, and he specially ordered that no one can come in without an invitation." That's why I'm so presumptuous. ”

Yuan Feng said: "Didn't the Shi Jin couple who just passed over only have one invitation?" ”

Mr. Kim: "They are a couple, so naturally they only need an invitation." ”

"That's it, the two of them have a relationship with me, and we're a group." Yuan Feng put the invitation card in the hand of Manager Jin, and pulled the two of them over.

Mr. Jin hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, Yuan Feng had already fingers out horizontally, as fast as wind and thunder, and pointed on Mr. Jin's arm, Mr. Jin's whole body was numb, and he was powerless to stop it, so he could only watch the three of them walk across the wooden bridge.

The lobby of the lodge is lit up. There were already more than a dozen people sitting in the hall, greeting each other and changing cups. It seems that they know each other very well. In the hall, the piano flute and the song, the silk and bamboo playing, the noise of wine tasting and laughing are sandwiched with intoxicating vocal music, and it is a lively scene.

But in the midst of the laughter of the crowd, a clear voice came out and said, "Thank you for coming to Sword Forge Villa!" ”

The person who spoke was Duan Lianting, the owner of the village, who was in his forties. Dressed up with a head and face, new hats, new clothes and new boots, and handsome eyebrows. His spirit was flying, and he wore a seven-star sword with silver light at his waist.

"Duan Mou, please get all your old friends together today......" Duan Lianting's words were broken halfway, and his gaze stopped on Li Tao and Li Bai.

Li Tao reported to his home and said: "My name is Li Tao." ”

"It turned out to be the famous Lantian King, and the presence of the two of them really made it shine." Duan Lianting then changed his words. "But Duan's banquet today is all old friends. did not dare to invite the king of Lantian. ”

Li Tao said: "You didn't invite us, but someone invited us." ”

Duan Lianting was surprised, so he asked, "Who is it?" ”

Li Tao handed the blood note to Duan Lianting, and Duan Lianting asked puzzled after reading it, "Who wrote the blood note?" ”

Shang Muyun took out a blood-colored plum blossom handkerchief and said word by word: "Plum, flower, kill, hand." ”

There was an uproar in the lobby: "The plum blossom killer is coming?" ”

"Where is he?"

Li Tao said: "I believe that the plum blossom killer is in the villa at this moment." ”

Duan Lianting said: "There is only one wooden bridge in and out of the Sword Casting Villa, and the wooden bridge is guarded at all times, the Sword Casting Villa can be said to be impregnable, how can the plum blossom killer come in?" ”

Li Tao smiled: "I don't have an invitation. Didn't you come in too? I think the plum killer is going to come in, there is always a way. Do you really believe that a cliff and a wooden bridge can stop the invincible plum killer in the world? ”

Duan Lianting said: "Although the plum blossom killer has committed many crimes over the years. But he never dared to go to the Sword Forge Villa, and the villa never had an assassination. ”

Li Tao said: "Everything will change. ”

"What then?"

Li Tao glanced at everyone: "Let the guests go back to the guest room immediately, and don't go out at night." ”

Seeing this, Duan Lianting had to let the family send the guests back to the room, and a lively banquet disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a solemn atmosphere.

Duan Lianting stared at Li Tao: "I hope the news that King Lantian got is true!"

"Please cooperate with Master Duan and give me the list of guests!"

Duan Lianting nodded and said, "This is natural!" ”

In the guest room, Li Tao looked at the list and suddenly stood up.

"What's wrong, the king?" Li Bai hurriedly asked.

"Chiba Divine Doctor Tang Yiping is also on the guest list."

Li Baixi said: "Tang Yiping is good at medicine, with his help, we can track down the black pills." ”

The courtyard of the guest room is surrounded by walls on three sides, and the rest is a long row of guest rooms, with only one gate, which is closely guarded by several family members. Li Tao and Li Bai came to Tang Yiping's guest room and knocked on the door.

Tang Yiping opened the door, looked at Li Tao and the others, and said after being stunned: "King Lantian came to the door overnight, I think there must be something urgent." ”

Li Tao said: "We do have urgent matters that need the help of our seniors. ”

Tang Yiping: "What's the matter?" ”

Li Tao said: "Don't hide it from the seniors, several officials of the imperial court have been poisoned, and the poison is very special, so I came to ask for help from the seniors." ”

Tang Yiping hesitated slightly, and replied: "Tang Mou is loved by his friends and has the false name of the Thousand Herbs Divine Doctor. Now Tang is old, his eyes are dizzy, and he can no longer hang the pot to cure his illness. The old decay is really helpless, so King Lantian should invite another master. ”

Li Tao said: "Doctor Tang seems to be insincere, is there anything unspeakable?" ”

Li Bai also said: "Isn't Doctor Tang afraid of that plum blossom killer? ”

Doctor Tang's face changed, and he said, "I don't know any plum blossom killers, so why should I be afraid?" ”

Shang Muyun said: "But the Plum Blossom Killer has infiltrated the villa, and now everyone in the villa is in danger, you can help us deal with the Plum Blossom Killer." ”

Tang Yiping groaned and said, "I'm already old, and I don't want to ask about these things anymore." ”

Li Bai said coldly: "You are so leisurely, everything is hanging high, but if the plum blossom killer wants to kill you, what should you do?" ”

Li Tao also said: "There are two people in the world who are good at medicine, one is Xu Langzhong of Anrentang, and the other is you, the senior. Xu Langzhong has already been poisoned by the plum blossom killer, and I am only afraid that the plum blossom killer will come to the seniors. ”

Tang Yiping smiled indifferently: "The old decay has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, the impermanence of life and death has long been seen through, the world is like a reverse journey, life is like a passerby, what joy is life, and what is there to fear in death?" The three of you should please go back, the old man can't help. Tang Yiping closed the door after speaking.

Li Tao and Li Bai looked at each other, and Li Tao frowned and said, "The words and reactions of this soup divine doctor are a little strange. ”

Li Bai said: "Let's come back tomorrow, the so-called doctor's parents' heart, I don't believe he will be so hard-hearted." ”

Li Tao and Li Bai's rooms are in the middle, not far from Tang Yiping's rooms. The yard is planted with colorful flowers, which are blooming brightly, but the yard is empty, unpopular, and looks deserted and lonely.

Back in the guest room, Li Tao closed his eyes and crossed his legs, running the inner strength of the five birds. Li Bai didn't untie his clothes, put on his clothes and slew, and firmly grasped the long sword in his hand. (To be continued......)
