Red Dust, Listen to the Wind and Snow Chapter 46
But reality did not give Xiao Nuhu real peace.
When his body gradually recovered and he was able to move freely, the long-haired old man, who was in the cave, said something to him that he had to care about.
That night, by the campfire, four men nibbled on roasted goat meat, and as before, there was no sign of anything sudden happening.
But the long-haired old man suddenly said a word: "For a period of time, I have heard some news about Qi Snow City, I don't know if everyone is willing to hear it." ”
Xiao Nuhu and the two women didn't expect him to suddenly say such a sentence, so they didn't say anything for a while.
He said again: "Now the Wild Wolf Mountain Cottage no longer exists, the Qingfeng Mountain Cottage is gone, and the reconstruction of Qixue City after it was destroyed is no longer the same as it used to be. ”
Zhen Xueqing asked, "Who is the city lord of Qi Snow City now?" ”
The long-haired old man didn't deliberately hide anything, but told the truth: "Now the city lord of Qixue City is Xiang Botong, and his deputy city lord is Kang Peng. ”
Zhen Xueqing asked in surprise, "How can Kang Peng be the deputy city lord?" He defected? ”
The long-haired old man said: "No, he didn't rebel, he has always been a person from Qingfeng Mountain Cottage." Now the bandits of Qingfeng Mountain Cottage have occupied Qixue City, and this area belongs to Xiang Botong's world. ”
Zhen Xueqing suddenly asked a question she was most concerned about: "What about my father and mother?" Are they dead or alive now? ”
Liu Yang also asked a question: "What about our big boss Shi Zhongquan?" Is he dead or alive now? ”
The long-haired old man said expressionlessly: "They are all dead, they died on the night when the people of the Wild Wolf Mountain Cottage attacked the city. ”
Zhen Xueqing couldn't believe it, and said, "Didn't my father disappear suddenly? Why did it appear that night? ”
The long-haired old man said: "Because his disappearance is a conspiracy, his purpose is to surprise Shi Zhongquan." ”
Zhen Xueqing said: "In that case, how did he die?" My mother is innocent, why did she die? ”
An imperceptible mocking smile flowed from the corner of the long-haired old man's mouth, and then he said lightly: "The entire Qixue City is being baptized by blood and fire, and there is no accident that people die there." ”
Zhen Xueqing didn't dare to ask any more.
By this time, she had already shed tears.
Liu Yang asked, "What about our big boss Shi Zhongquan?" How did he die? ”
The long-haired old man said, "I only know that he is dead, but as for how he died, I don't know. ”
After a pause, he said again: "However, since a big man like Shi Zhongquan and a big man like Zhen Qiji, since they all died that night, it is obvious that they all died unexpectedly, but who killed them is unknown." ”
And what he meant by saying this sentence had already told others who was now the city lord of Qixue City was the most suspected murderer.
"The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits. I always thought that Qingfeng Mountain cottages were incompetent, so I neglected to guard against them, but I didn't expect them to be the real enemies. Liu Yang said self-deprecatingly.
"I didn't expect Kang Peng to be a person who eats inside and out, and it is in vain that my father treats him sincerely." When Zhen Xueqing said this, she was obviously very angry.
The long-haired old man asked, "Do you really want revenge?" ”
Zhen Xueqing and Liu Yang said in unison: "Yes." ”
But Xiao Nuhu interjected at this time: "Do you still want to get involved in the affairs of the rivers and lakes? ”
Zhen Xueqing said: "My parents were killed by them, and I can't swallow this breath." ”
Liu Yang said: "We tried our best to attack the city, but we were taken advantage of by Xiang Botong, an old bastard, to be honest, I really feel very aggrieved and cowardly." ”
Xiao said angrily: "I know you all want revenge, but ...... Are you sure that you are not sent to die, but can you really take revenge? ”
Zhen Xueqing and Liu Yang were silent.
The long-haired old man sighed at this time and said, "When is the time for retribution?" If you should endure it, you should endure it, and it is already a good thing to be able to live well. ”
Zhen Xueqing said: "I have the revenge of killing my father and mother, but I see the enemy at large, and I can only swallow my anger, what is the point of living like this?" ”
A wry smile hung on the corner of Xiao Nuhu's mouth. "Your martial arts were all taught by Kang Peng, and now you want to seek revenge on him, do you know that if you do this, you will undoubtedly be sent to death?"
Liu Yang teased: "The good son-in-law of the Xiang family, are you afraid that your father-in-law will not be willing to marry your daughter to you, so you always speak for their family?" ”
Xiao Nuhu said coldly: "Xiang Botong doesn't have any daughters at all. ”
Liu Yang was surprised: "What did you say? How do you know he doesn't have a daughter? ”
Xiao said angrily: "I knew it from the beginning. ”
Liu Yang said: "Then why didn't you tell the big boss at that time?" ”
Xiao Fuhu said: "The big boss has already planned to attack Qi Snow City, and judging from his temperament, he will definitely not easily change his plan for anything. In that case, what good is it for me to tell him that it only affects his mind? ”
Liu Yang said: "If you tell him, he won't ...... It won't be used by Xiang Botong, and our ending won't be like this. ”
Xiao said angrily: "This is just your delusion. Shi Zhongquan has long had the intention of attacking Qixue City, and Zhen Qiji has long had the intention of destroying the Wild Wolf Mountain Cottage, so whether it is Qixue City or the Wild Wolf Mountain Cottage, sooner or later they will experience such a catastrophe. ”
Liu Yang asked, "Then why did you agree to the big boss to enter the city and do some path-finding things?" ”
Xiao Nuhu was silent.
After a while, he said faintly: "Because I really want to see Zhen Xueqing, and I really want to take her away from this disaster." However, I didn't expect ...... It didn't turn out to be what I had hoped. ”
Zhen Xueqing looked at him, an inexplicable pain rose in her heart, and an inexplicable warmth swelled up.
At this time, the long-haired old man said, "I have one more thing to tell you, we will not be able to stay in this cave for a long time. ”
Xiao Nuhu frowned slightly, not knowing why.
The long-haired old man explained: "There is a treasure in this cave, and during this period of time, Xiang Botong, the city lord of Qixue City, and Kang Peng, the deputy city lord, will come over in person and quietly come to dig up the treasure here. ”
Xiao Nuhu was surprised and said, "Is there really any treasure here?" I've been wandering around the rivers and lakes for so many years, why have I never heard of it? I've been here many times, why have I never seen one? ”
The long-haired old man said, "Perhaps, this is just a disguise, and no one can be sure whether there really is." However, since they are going to bring someone over...... That's a good opportunity. ”
He didn't say what the chances were good about, but anyone who heard it knew what he had to say.
Zhen Xueqing said firmly: "Okay, what I want is such an opportunity." I must seize this opportunity to avenge my parents. ”
Liu Yang also smiled and said, "They came just in time, we can give them an urn to catch turtles......
And Xiao Nuhu looked at the long-haired old man fixedly, and deep doubts arose in his heart.
