Chapter 218: The former temple hall is a prisoner today
Li Xuzhen's body lying on his side sat up slowly, with the sound of a "bang, bang, bang" iron cable, and his tone was as cold as the cold iron: "It's really you." ”
I still remember that a few days ago, he didn't take the person he was looking for in the Fengyue Pavilion, and after leaving Yanzhou, he was ambushed inexplicably, and he was in this position after waking up. He also thought that the one who dared to attack himself so blatantly was most likely Hua Xiyan.
The speculation was confirmed, and Li Huozhen suddenly couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart.
"I'm here to ask Master Li a few questions." Hua Xiyan slowly spoke, "I hope Li Shuzhen will answer me truthfully." ”
Li Xuzhen glanced at Hua Xiyan, looked at the chains on his ankles meaningfully, and said in a dumb voice: "Just for these things, can I tell you what you want to know?" ”
Huaxi Yan walked slowly, and the two purple hostas in the hair and the pearls on the stone wall of the hall complemented each other. Her voice was as crisp and pleasant as a jade plate: "Master Li wants to know what has changed outside these days?" ”
Li Shouzhen can only judge how much time has passed by the number of times he has delivered food. And he didn't feel that he had been missing for so many days, and the Li family would not give an explanation to the outside world.
"In exchange, you answer my questions and I tell you what you want to know." Hua Xiyan threw out an olive branch.
She didn't think Li would refuse her offer. After all, Li Shuzhen was extremely suspicious, especially after living for such a lifetime, he wanted to know what kind of role he was in the Li family. He...... There is still no hope to be rescued.
Looking at the hesitation on Li Xuzhen's face, Hua Xiyan spoke directly: "After Wen Hai escaped from prison, he was assassinated, but there are people with you?" ”
Li Yuzhen frowned when he heard this, but just this expression made Hua Xiyan understand his answer.
Without waiting for him to answer, Hua Xiyan then asked: "Yun Qi has been assassinated repeatedly, but is there someone with you?" ”
Hua Xiyan asked questions with rough answers in his heart, and Li Xuzhen knew that even if he was cheating, it would be useless, so he nodded lightly: "Yes." ”
"One last question." Hua Xiyan said, and suddenly lowered his voice, "Why are you targeting me?" ”
This question was asked by Hua Xiyan when he was in Taiyuan, when Hua Xiyu was on the expedition, and Li Houzhen also answered it at that time, but she didn't hear it clearly because of the noise.
This question has been bothering her for a long time, and she is desperately waiting for an answer, she can't understand where she provoked Li Yuzhen in the first place.
Li Shuzhen was not the slightest surprise at Hua Xiyan's question, he looked up at Hua Xiyan's beautiful and serious face, and slowly spit out a few words: "Because of you, you should have died a long time ago." ”
Li got the truth, and the soft whip of the wind whistled.
Hua Xiyan moved his fingers, but after all, he didn't stop it, listening to the soft whip hitting Li Houzhen's shoulder firmly, Li Huozhen frowned and snorted, but after all, he didn't exhale in pain.
Hua Xiyan always knew that he was a person with backbone, and said lightly again: "I don't understand." ”
"What you just said is the last question, with all due respect!" Xu was a whip, Li Xuzhen's voice was a little weak, but he still had a firm and resolute attitude, and tried not to be half a point lower than Hua Xiyan in terms of momentum.
Regarding Li Shouzhen's answer, Hua Xiyan was neither sad nor surprised, his face was not shocked, and there was no superfluous expression. She should have died a long time ago? Was it directly hanged after being forced by the Sun family, or was there another reason?
Maybe it was because the atmosphere was too depressing, or because Li Xuzhen's patience had already been worn clean after being locked up here for many days, seeing that Hua Xiyan was silent, he was a little uncontrollable: "You tell me, what did the Li family say?" ”
Hua Xiyan didn't answer immediately, and there was silence in the entire stone room, only Li Houzhen's slightly heavy wheezing voice echoed. I don't know if it's because of the pain caused by Feng Tao's whip, or because of the torment in his heart now, which makes him feel so anxious.
"There is no one in the world who is truly Li Zhen." Hua Xiyan lowered his head slightly, and saw the stunned on Li Xuzhen's face clearly.
"It can't be!" Li Shouzhen gritted his teeth and denied it, seeing people alive and seeing corpses in death has always been the principle of finding people, how could the Li family rashly give such an explanation?
"The Li family found a male corpse under the cliff where you had an accident, which proves that it is you." Hua Xiyan knew what Li Houzhen was suspicious of, and kindly explained it to Li Huozhen in detail.
"Am I undoubted?" Li Shouzhen repeated these four words, and his pale lips opened a sarcastic arc.
"yes, it's you." Hua Xiyan nodded seriously, "Not only are the figures similar, but even a circular birthmark on the left shoulder, a three-centimeter scar under the right knee, and a mole on the sole of the left foot, all of which are exactly the same." ”
Li Xuzhen's eyes suddenly shot towards Huaxi smoke as if they had been quenched with poison.
Hua Xiyan shrugged helplessly, and said with a chuckle: "I reminded you to be careful on the road, but you didn't pay attention to it." ”
Li Shuzhen narrowed his eyes suddenly, a mouthful of silver teeth creaked, staring at Hua Xiyan as if he was going to cut her with a thousand knives, and squeezed out two words from between his teeth for a long time: "It's you!" ”
The man who embarrassed him with Fu Xi in the Fengyue Pavilion and was weird when he talked to him turned out to be her!
No wonder, no wonder he thought that person looked so familiar at the time, it turned out to be the person in front of him!
"It's me." Hua Xiyan generously admitted, "I remember that I also said something at the time, I said that I dare to ask for your life. ”
Li Xuzhen's body tensed suddenly, his thin shoulders trembled faintly unrestrainedly, and his eyes were filled with a touch of horror and disbelief as he looked at Hua Xiyan.
"You dare!"
"You try if I dare!" Hua Xi's words fell, and the small golden wolf scimitar had already fallen from the words in his sleeve to his hand, against Li Houzhen's neck and carotid artery.
A faint, almost unpleasant aroma came to his nose, accompanied by a cold, hard metal object. Li Shuzhen didn't have the slightest fear, looked back at Huaxi Yan, and spit out a sentence: "Let Wen Mei go." ”
Hua Xiyan was stunned, obviously not expecting Li Xuzhen to make this request.
As if she knew him for the first time, Hua Xiyan looked at Li Houzhen seriously, slowly withdrew her hand, and asked, "Do you want to know Wen Mei's current situation?" ”
"Will you tell me?" Li Zhen laughed a little self-deprecatingly.
"I'll tell you, of course." Hua Xiyan blew at the golden wolf scimitar in his hand, his sparkling eyes squinted at Li Yuzhen, and his raised eyebrows provoked thousands of graces in this world, only to hear the sound of the clear spirit like a mountain spring hitting a stone sounded again: "I'll ask you another question." ”
Seeing Li Shouzhen nodding, Huaxi Yanling's lips hooked up a smile, but it was hidden for a moment, and it was replaced by a touch of coldness: "Three years ago, it was you who instructed a group of mountain bandits to kill me?" ”
Li Shouzhen was stunned, obviously not expecting Hua Xiyan's thoughts to jump out of here.
Huaxi Yanshui's eyes stared at Li Xuzhen. She desperately wanted to know the answer, she didn't think that a gang of mountain bandits happened to be eyeing her and Hua Xiyu, who were not very wealthy, among so many people. That was the first time she and Yun Qi met, and she was rescued by Yun Qi afterwards, although she didn't know martial arts at that time, she could see at a glance that Yun Qi had worked hard to rescue her. And a group of mountain bandits obviously don't have that ability.
"Not me." Li shook his head.
"Do you know who it is?" Hua Xiyan said in an affirmative tone. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Li to determine whether it was an operation he sent without asking the details at the time. There is only one possibility, that Li Zhenzhen knew clearly about that incident from beginning to end.
I don't know if I feel that I am really in a disadvantaged position now and no longer struggle, or I am eager to know Wen Mei's current situation, Li Shouzhen did not take another step: "I only know that the people behind the group of mountain bandits at that time were the Wen family, but I don't know who it is." ”
Wen family! It's the Wen family again! This answer can be said to be expected, or it can be said to be unexpected.
Li Xuzhen's face had a somewhat anxious look: "How is Wen Mei?" ”
"She's bad." Hua Xiyan opened his mouth bluntly, and clearly saw Li Yuzhen's dark eyes shrink under the light of the pearl.
"After the Longxi Li family announced your death, Wen Mei was very bad. Knowing that your 'corpse' was going to go to the ancestral grave, he didn't dare to ask for it, so he set up a well-dressed mound for you in Taiyuan. Hua Xiyan's voice was faint, and there were no waves, but the mood of the listener was not so calm.
"When you were in the first seven, Wen Mei committed suicide in front of your grave." Seeing that Li Shouzhen's eyes suddenly widened and his eyes were about to split, Hua Xiyan added, "I was saved by the person I sent to keep an eye on her." ”
Only then did Li Shouzhen realize that something was going up and down, and the heart that mentioned his throat and eyes fell into his chest again, and the huge gap made his heart hurt, but he couldn't hide the joy that finally came to his heart.
"Thank you......" After a while, Li Shouzhen spit out these two words with difficulty.
"No need, I'm looking at the face of the third sister-in-law in the future." Although Wen Mei's temperament is a little spicy and a little wrong with her, it is not so bad that it is heinous, and it can still be forgiven.
And Wen Lin is destined to marry Wang Qi, Wen Lin is such a sister, if Wen Mei dies, how sad Wen Lin will be, can be imagined.
After the question was finished, Hua Xiyan didn't stay long, turned around and left.
"Oh, yes." Hua Xiyan stopped, but didn't look back, "She has your child, I will let the fourth brother take care of her fetus." As for whether you can get out of here, it depends on the performance of your Li family in the next time. ”
Li Xuzhen sat stupidly and ignored the second half of Hua Xiyan's sentence. He hadn't thought about asking Brother Cong to go out here in the past few days, and all he was hovering in his mind was the sentence "She has your child".
He's going to be a father? This realization made Li Shouzhen smirk, laughing and laughing, and burst into tears.
I was not without anger and disgust at Wen Mei's entanglement and pursuit before, but now I have seen that it is clear that the woman who dares to die for him, how can he continue to live up to it?
The only consolation is that according to Wen Mei's feelings for him, he will definitely raise their children well and will not seek death easily.
It's just that this life has fallen to this point, and this kindness is afraid that it can only be repaid in the next life.
