Chapter 365: Secret Conversation on a Moonlit Night
After a few days of running, everyone was tired after dinner and fell asleep. Wu Zhiyuan's house is not big, so many people live together and it is very crowded, Wu Zhiyuan, Wu Chengxi and Sun Haozi, Yu Yisu and Manniu made do with the East Chamber for one night, and gave up the bedroom to a room of women.
The winter night was cold, there was no fire in the wing, the cold was even stronger, several people were covered with a thin layer of quilts, Wu Zhiyuan was shivering from the cold, and he was completely sleepy, looking at the moonlight reflected in the broken window paper of the window lattice, his thoughts were wandering. In the whole room, only the snoring of the wild cow and Sun Haozi came and went, and Yu Yisu must not have fallen asleep. As soon as the morning dawns, Wu Zhiyuan will take him to Yonghe Yizhuang, which for him has the feeling of being a criminal on the court.
Wu Zhiyuan was looking at the window paper on the window lattice in a daze, and suddenly a figure walked in front of the window, Wu Zhiyuan was startled, and quickly sat up, at this moment, another figure flashed outside, and the black figure reflected on the window lattice was very obvious.
"Who will it be in the middle of the night?" Wu Zhiyuan was suspicious in his heart, dodged off the kang, put on his shoes and quietly pushed open the door of the wing.
The probe looked out, only to see that the courtyard door had been opened, and a figure just flashed at the door, by the dim moonlight of the winter night, Wu Zhiyuan only saw the corner of the person's clothes in a flash, but did not see all the back of the person.
Wu Zhiyuan was suspicious in his heart, and quietly walked to the gate of the courtyard, and before he stepped out of the threshold, he heard the sound of talking outside the door, and the voice was very low, but at this time, in the dead of night, Wu Zhiyuan was standing not far from the two outside the door, so he heard it very clearly.
I only heard a woman's voice say, "We had an encounter with that traitor from the Southern Sky Eagle before, but fortunately we were prepared, so he didn't take advantage of anything. However, he actually had a Blood Shadow Demon Knife on his body. ”
Wu Zhiyuan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this woman's voice, because he heard that this woman was none other than Hua Gu. Who would that other person be? Just then, another person spoke.
"The Blood Shadow Demon Knife is on him? How is this possible? Another woman's voice asked in surprise.
This woman's voice shocked Wu Zhiyuan's heart, this deep voice in his heart is no longer familiar to him, she is the Moon Shadow Fuxian.
I only heard Hua Gu sneer and said: "At that time, we were almost deceived by this traitor, but fortunately, the kid surnamed Wu showed up and exposed him." ”
"Well, Brother Zhiyuan is an upright person, he can't see the conspiracy of the wicked, he will definitely come forward when he is present, in fact, he has already had a holiday with Nantianying before, and Nantianying has always held a grudge against him." Moon Shadow Fuxian said softly.
Hua Gu's admonishing tone said: "Moon Shadow, I know people and faces, but I don't know my heart, this kid surnamed Wu looks honest, but he ...... with that Ju'er."
"I see." Moon Shadow Fuxian interrupted Hua Gu's words, and said in a firm tone, "I still believe that he is not the kind of person who is unfortunate enough to mess with flowers. ”
Wu Zhiyuan stood inside the door, and when he heard the unwavering words of the Moon Shadow Fuxian, a warmth suddenly rose in his heart, and this feeling of being trusted by his loved one made him both excited and moved.
Hua Gu didn't defend when she heard this, and the two of them were speechless for a while. After a while, I only heard Hua Gu say, "Could it be that Nantian Eagle has already colluded with Jin Zhuni?" ”
Moon Shadow Fuxian guessed: "Senior Sister has a strange temperament, and she is in a relationship with the Southern Heavenly Eagle, although she has coveted the position of the sect master for a long time, I think she still disdains to collude with a traitor who has been expelled from the Black Descending Gate. ”
"The reason why I and Lai Di Manniu left the Black Descendant Gate and came all the way to Shandong to find you is precisely because I listened to Jin Zhuni's one-sided words, and she once spread rumors in the Black Descendant Gate, saying that you met an accident in Shandong, was killed by the Maoshan faction, and there is no body left." Hua Gu recalled, "I also accidentally bumped into her to receive the flying pigeon handbook, I don't know where the pigeon came from, I think, it may be related to the Southern Sky Eagle." ”
After Hua Gu's words fell, the surroundings fell silent again, Moon Shadow Fuxian seemed to be thinking, and after a while, she spoke: "This matter is put aside for a while, the reason why I have not returned to Yunnan for a long time is indeed because something went wrong, but it has nothing to do with the Maoshan faction, but it was Brother Zhiyuan, a disciple of Maoshan, who saved me." ”
Speaking of this, Moon Shadow Fuxian paused and continued, "In addition, I have also seen the real Blood Shadow Demon Knife. ”
"What? Have you seen the real Blood Shadow Magic Blade? Where is it? Hua Gu asked in surprise.
Moon Shadow Fuxian replied, "When I first met Brother Zhiyuan, he carried this knife with him, and later lost it in the White Wolf Valley behind Longshan Mountain. I heard Brother Zhiyuan say that he brought it out of a tomb, so I suspect that the person buried in that tomb is most likely my master. ”
"You...... Your Master? The old master of the house, she ...... She's dead? Hua Gu's voice trembled a little when she heard this.
"I don't know yet, I originally planned to let Brother Zhiyuan take me to see what happened, but there were too many accidents later, so I couldn't make the trip." Moon Shadow Fuxian sighed.
Wu Zhiyuan heard the words of Moon Shadow Fuxian and understood that the "too many accidents" she said meant that she was beaten off a cliff and fell into the White Wolf Valley by the Longshan Drought Fish, and was later hijacked by Li Lanru Manchu forces.
"The old master has been missing for so many years, and there has been no news, if the kid surnamed Wu is really the Blood Shadow Demon Knife brought out of the tomb, then the one buried in the tomb is really likely to be the old master." Hua Gu sobbed as she spoke, and she could see that she had a deep relationship with the master of the Moon Shadow Fuxian.
"Aunt Hua, don't be sad first, whether it is my master who is placed in that tomb, I can't make a conclusion now, tomorrow I will go to Yonghe Yizhuang with Brother Zhiyuan, and after this matter, I will ask him to take me to that tomb." Moon Shadow Fuxian comforted.
The sound of Hua Gu's sobbing did not stop, and it was not until half an hour later that it gradually calmed down. I only heard her sigh and said: "The old master Hongfu Qitian will never die in such an unknown guest in a foreign land, I hope that there is someone else buried in the tomb." ”
Moon Shadow Fuxian softly agreed.
Suddenly, Hua Gu suddenly changed the topic and asked, "By the way, Moon Shadow, how did you and that Li Xueying meet?" ”
Moon Shadow Fuxian recalled for a moment and said: "I didn't know her directly, but because of Brother Zhiyuan, her identity is actually the adopted daughter of the Manchu eunuch Li Lanru. ”
"Adopted daughter?" Hua Gu's tone was rather surprised, "Other than that, have you noticed anything else unusual about her?" ”
"Anything else out of the ordinary?" Moon Shadow Fuxian didn't seem to understand the meaning of Hua Gu's words.
