Chapter Ninety-Five: Secretly Trapped
As soon as he heard that the Holy Lord of the Four Directions would cut off his hand, the man was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he could barely stand on his feet. He bit his lower lip tightly until he bit out the blood mark, and then he calmed down a little.
"Back to the Holy Lord, my hands have been injured recently, so I'm afraid I won't be able to touch the qin......" The man said tremblingly, and his whole body was already like a sieve.
He only felt that the eyes of this Quartet Holy Lord were too terrifying, and under such gaze, the blood in his whole body seemed to be about to coagulate.
"Oh? Such a coincidence? Situ Shaogong's lips hooked up a playful smile, and he said slowly, "But you have met the right person when you meet this Holy Lord, your hands are just injured, even if your hands are useless, this Holy Lord can heal your hands." In order to hear you play the harp, it seems that this saint will heal your hands first. ”
Situ Shaogong's words made the man instantly regret what he had just said, and he wanted to bite off his tongue. How could he have forgotten that the Holy Lord of the Four Directions has the best medical skills in the world, and there is no problem with his hands at all, if he asks the Holy Lord of the Four Directions to help him diagnose and treat, wouldn't it be clear that he wants to expose his lies?
"Oh...... The injuries under him are almost healed, and he doesn't dare to bother the Holy Lord. The man hurriedly found an excuse to refuse.
"Since it's all right, let's please stroke the qin?" Situ Shao looked at him and sneered.
"This ......"
A look of struggle flashed on the man's face, but then he looked at his boss Tu Shaogong fiercely, so frightened that he shrank his neck, and finally gritted his teeth, for the sake of his life, he could only choose to catch the duck on the shelf.
"Since the Holy Lord is not afraid of polluting your ears, then you can only sacrifice ugliness below." At that moment, the man took the Yaoqin from Situ Shaogong's hand.
The expression on his face at this moment was almost no different from that of guillotine. Sitting cross-legged, facing Yaoqin, he was worried for a while. On weekdays, he is idle, specializing in some things that are cheating and abducting, a little clever, and occasionally elegant. But to say that he played a song in front of so many people, he didn't have the courage, and his piano skills were so-so. At this moment, he really hated that employer, and he had to let him pretend to be a luthier, and now he will not be exposed when he continues to play.
"Hey, why don't you play it! Are you afraid that you will be exposed as soon as you play the piano? He Shou and Bai Zhi couldn't help but mock when they saw the man's bitter face at this moment.
"I ......" The man saw that he couldn't refuse, so he turned his heart sideways, gritted his teeth and stroked the strings with both hands.
"Zheng ......"
A piercing sound sounded, and then everyone saw that two of the seven strings had been broken, and blood continued to flow from the man's fingertips. Everyone was stunned by this sudden turn of events. Shui Ningyan, Situ Shaogong, He Shou, and Bai Zhi didn't expect the man to harm himself so much.
You must know that this Yaoqin takes the South China Sea ice silk as a string, and it is extremely tough. Presumably, the man's internal strength is not weak, so the strings are torn. But with such strength, it must have hurt the man's tendons with ice silk, which means that the man's hands will be useless in the future.
Shui Ningyan looked at the Yaoqin stained with blood, and immediately frowned in disgust. A good piano was stained with blood, but she really admired this man's courage.
"Holy Lord, I'm sorry, I really had an old injury on my hand before I went down, and I couldn't handle it accurately when I stroked the piano, so I used too much force to break the strings. The good Yaoqin was damaged, and I am really ashamed to be in it. The man held back the pain of his ten fingers and heart, and said with a pretended guilt.
Situ Shaogong snorted coldly, his eyes were like ice immersion, and he didn't say much. At this time, although the onlookers felt that the man's identity as a violinist was a little suspicious, they were moved by compassion when they saw that his hands were bleeding. Although they were already a little suspicious of the man, after all, there was no evidence, and they couldn't make judgments.
"Now my hands are injured and I can't play the harp for the Holy Lord. However, the eldest lady of the General's Mansion said that as long as I answered her three questions, she would come out to meet. But now it's delaying coming out, what does it mean? The man sneered, "What's the matter with such a reversal, please comment on it for you." ”
As soon as these words came out, the onlookers suddenly boiled again, and they counted the dishonesty of the water condensation smoke one after another, and threatened to let the water condensation smoke come out.
Shui Ningyan hooked his lips and smiled, and then stared at the man with mockery, and said with a smile: "This son, the eldest lady of the General's Mansion has long been standing here, so why not talk about credibility?" ”
"Coming out? Where is it? The man's gaze quickly searched the crowd, and after a moment, he said with a sullen face, "You lied, she didn't come out at all, otherwise why can't I see her?" ”
At this moment, not only the man was full of suspicion, but also everyone else. Shui Ningyan's expression remained unchanged and said: "Far away in the sky, close in front of you." ”
"Where, where?" The man wondered.
"Heh, didn't you say that you are so familiar with Shui Ningyan that you already have a skin-to-skin relationship? Then why is Miss Ben standing in front of you now, but you don't recognize it? Shui Ningyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he snorted coldly.
"What, you, you...... Is it water condensation? When the man heard this, he was so shocked that he almost jumped up. The people present were also in disbelief.
"Miss Ben's water condenses smoke, as if it were fake."
The man looked at it carefully. Although the woman in front of her was dressed plainly, her noble spirit was naturally revealed. That temperament was not annihilated because of the girl's outfit.
The man immediately said angrily: "Okay, Shui Ningyan, dare you pretend to be a girl, just to deliberately deceive this son, it's unreasonable!" ”
He Shou and Bai Zhi walked over and stood with Shui Ningyan, and He Shou said respectfully: "Miss, you are really Bing Xue smart. The trick of this liar was debunked at once. ”
Bai Zhi glared at the man angrily and snorted coldly: "Since you said that you are familiar with our young lady, why can't you even recognize her?" What you just said is all deception, and it is really hateful! ”
"Hmph, this son didn't lie, and the reason why he didn't recognize it is not because your young lady wears a veil every time she meets me."
The man was right, every time he went out after the Huxin Pavilion, he covered his face with a scarf in most cases. The water condensation smoke that the man saw in the past two days was also veiled, so when the water condensation smoke took off the veil, he didn't recognize it.
"Oh, it's a big joke, as you said before, if you're already good to our young lady to the point of skin to skin, how can you not recognize her? Are you liar when everyone is stupid? He Shou crossed his hands on his hips, and his anger was monstrous.
As soon as these words came out, the onlookers also felt that He Shou was reasonable. Since it has reached the point of skin to skin, how can you not even know the appearance of the other party? It seems that this man is indeed very suspicious.
Bai Zhi laughed and said, "Since you said that the woman you meet is veiled every time, then how can you be sure that it is our young lady?" ”
When he noticed that the onlookers were staring at him, the man was so frightened that he hurriedly argued: "Ladies and gentlemen, what you say below is absolutely true. I still have the promise token that Shui Ningyan gave me at the beginning! ”
As he spoke, the man took out a white silk handkerchief from his bosom. I saw a beautiful narcissus painted on it. Next to it, the word "smoke" is embroidered with green silk thread. The people present were instantly confused again. What's going on? Could it be that the water condensation smoke really had an affair with this man?
When He Shou and Bai Zhi saw the silk handkerchief in the man's hand, their faces turned slightly pale. This silk handkerchief is indeed owned by their young lady, but it has been lost for two days.
"Oh, this silk handkerchief is indeed Miss Ben's belonging, but it has long been lost. It's not surprising that you've picked it up, it doesn't mean much. Seeing Shui Ningyan's consistent indifference, everyone suddenly felt that what she said was very reasonable.
"Shui Ningyan, if you don't admit it, this son still knows a secret of yours, that is, there is a plum blossom birthmark on the inside of your left leg, I don't know if you are wrong?"
As soon as these words came out, Situ Shaogong's expression changed drastically, and his eyes under the mask were like angry beasts, angry and full of anger. This damn thing dared to openly reveal his sweetheart's privacy. Later, he will definitely let this man die a good death!
"You're so despicable!" He Shou and Bai Zhi were annoyed and angry for a while.
They had waited for the young lady to bathe, so they knew that the man was right. But when it is heard, the ears of those people must be filled with imagination. Miss's innocence may not be preserved.
"Oh, what does a birthmark mean? If you have the intention of framing me, you will naturally do everything you can to dishonor my innocence. Miss Ben can also say that you seduced me from which of my maids, and found out from her. So that doesn't mean anything at all. ”
At this moment, the brain of water condensation smoke is running rapidly. Now that Mingyue Pavilion has been rectified by her, the maid ring inside is absolutely trustworthy. The other party even knew about her such a secret thing, either it was the maid ring who used to serve her close and was now sent out, or it was the man Shui Ningmo or Shui Ninghan told her.
Suddenly, she remembered the last time Murong Xue went to the General's Mansion to find her for revenge, when Shui Ningmo said a lot of bad things about her to Murong Xue, as if she also insinuated that her relationship with the qin master was ambiguous, and now this man is pretending to be the identity of the qin master, is all this really just a coincidence? Not really.
"Water condenses smoke, no matter how clever your tongue is, don't think about the fact that you and my son already have a skin-to-skin relationship." The man didn't expect that Shui Ningyan's clever tongue could always easily clear up the relationship with him, and he was so angry that he was like thunder.
"Not necessarily, remember the three questions that Miss Ben asked you just now? Now is the time to verify. I have to have everyone present to testify. Shui Ningyan smiled slightly, and his eyes seemed to be choked with two ice beads.
As soon as these words came out, the man's face changed instantly, and he only felt a cold air rushing in from the soles of his feet.
