Chapter 17: Poisoned Wine
I don't know how long it took, Hua Manlou woke up, he hurriedly got up and called Li Yunfei and Lu Xiaofeng up.
Hua Manlou wiped it around and hurriedly said, "This is my room in Yuxiu Villa." How did we get here. ”
Li Yunfei and the others got out of bed, and Lu Xiaofeng walked to the table and said, "There is a lot of food here." ”
Li Yunfei also pretended not to know anything and said, "Yes, there is still a tank of water over there." ”
Hua Manlou was very anxious when he heard about it, and hurriedly looked around for an exit, but it was impossible to find an exit because it was full of steel plates. Just when Hua Manlou was anxious, Lu Xiaofeng said according to the script: "Don't look for it, there are steel plates everywhere here, and you can't get out." ”
Hua Manlou hurriedly said: "What's the matter, who put us under house arrest, how is my father, I want to go out." ”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Don't worry, fortunately, I have a Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall's Fire Cloud Thunderbolt Bomb." Hopefully they didn't put iron plates on the roof. ”
The roof exploded, and several people flew out. Hurry up and dare to go to the peach blossom castle of the flower family. It just so happened that the servant who was stunned and full of flowers was there.
Hua Manlou flew up and grabbed the servant and asked, "Say, why are you plotting against me?" ”
Just when the servant was hesitant to speak, a voice made Hua Manlou let go of his hand. "Lou'er, let him go, I asked him to do this. Hua Ruling said.
Hua Manlou asked in surprise, "Dad, why did you do this?"
Hua Ruling sighed and said, "I received a letter some time ago. As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper.
Lu Xiaofeng asked, "What do these bloody footprints mean?"
Hua Manlou was stunned for a moment and said, "This is the sign of the iron shoe thief when he committed the crime." ”
Lu Xiaofeng asked in surprise, "Hasn't that ironshoe thief been killed by you, uncle?"
Hua Ruling said: "Yes, the Iron Shoe Thief was killed by me, but no one has ever seen his true face in the life of the Iron Shoe Thief, and it is unknown whether he died or not." Lou'er, your guess in the past few years is right. ”
Li Yunfei said coldly: "Dare to pick this day to seek revenge, this person is really bold." Li Yunfei and Lu Xiaofeng glanced at each other, and the two looked at each other and smiled. I know that it's okay to stick a knife in both sides for a friend, and it's okay to tell a lie.
Hua Ruling sighed and said: "I want my Hua Ruling to live a bright and upright life, worthy of heaven and earth, nothing to fear, but when people are old, there are more worries, Lou'er, the most reassuring thing in my life is you!"
Hua Manlou hurriedly said: "So Dad, you will lock me up, but the enemy is now, how can I retreat from the battle!"
Hua Ruling said: "Dad has a way to deal with him, he can't win against me, don't worry." ”
Hua Manlou said: "I'm not a child anymore, just let him come, and settle this grievance." ”
Hua Ruling said: "Lu Xiaofeng, Li Yunfei, you are Lou'er's best friend, this time it has affected you, and I have no choice but to do this." Please also look at the building and forgive your uncle. ”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Uncle, you don't have to be polite. Li Yunfei also arched his hand and said: "Uncle, you are too polite, don't dare, don't dare." ”
The three of them walked out, and at this moment an official came up and asked where he was staying. Lu Xiaofeng greeted him and shouted, "Jin Jiuling." Why are you here? ”
Jin Jiuling said: "You can come, why can't I come." ”
Hua Manlou said with a smile: "It turns out that the golden catcher of the six doors is here. Leave aside the hustle and bustle of hospitality and poor support, please don't be surprised. ”
Li Yunfei looked at this embroidery thief who was about to sit down for dozens of big cases at this time, this person was upright and domineering, which made people feel good, no wonder Lu Xiaofeng regarded him as a friend.
Lu Xiaofeng introduced each other again: "This is my friend Li Yunfei, and this is Jin Jiuling, the chief catcher of the six gates. ”
After shuddering with each other for a while, Jin Jiuling was about to rest, and Hua Manlou said, "Come on, take Jin Zhutou to Ziwei Pavilion to check in." ”
Jin Jiuling said: "Everyone, see you back." And he went out with his servant.
The three of them walked together to the room full of flowers. Hua Manlou sighed and said, "Brother Lu, Brother Li, listen to me." After saying that, he stood up and sighed. That was the first time Li Yunfei felt that Hua Manlou had an unbreakable knot in his heart. Hua Manlou slowly revealed the sad things of the year.
"That was fifteen years ago. I was playing at home and wanted to find my dad. When I arrived at home, I found that the secret room in my home had been opened. I snuck in, and I found out that my dad was fighting a masked man. The man was no match for my father, and was slashed in the leg by my father's sword. He had to grab me and threaten my father. My dad was afraid that I would be hurt by the Iron Shoe Thief. I had to let the iron shoes go and steal them. ”
Hua Manlou sighed and said, "I was taken captive by the Iron Shoe Thieves to the bank of the Meng River. I tore the iron shoe's face, and he threw me to the tree. ”
Li Yunfei asked, "But why did he blind you?"
Hua Manlou said: "I was knocked unconscious, and then I woke up, and this iron shoe actually showed me his face." He told me that his face was the last thing I saw. Then he blinded me. He said he would be back. Hua Manlou said very plainly, but Li Yunfei knew that he still had this shadow in his heart.
Perhaps recalling these bad memories, Hua Manlou looked a little tired, and then said: "Later, my father contacted the five masters and killed the iron shoe thief together. But I've always believed that the Iron Shoe Thieves are still alive. ”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "This is just your guess, the iron shoe thief should be dead!"
Hua Manlou said: "No, I have a basis, my feelings tell me that the Iron Shoe Thief has been haunting Peach Blossom Castle all these years, and it is near the underground secret room. ”
Li Yunfei asked, "Have you ever been to that underground secret passage?"
Hua Manlou said: "Since the accident, my father has transformed the secret room. Now no one but my father knows where the entrance to the secret room is! It's just that in recent years, I don't feel the Iron Shoe Thief. ”
Lu Xiaofeng smiled: "Okay, since you can't feel him, maybe he can't find him, so let's go." ”
Hua Manlou said: "This makes me even more worried, the arrival of the Iron Shoe Thief this time must be unkind, and there may be a big conspiracy in it." ”
Li Yunfei said: "Don't worry, the arrival of the Iron Shoe Thief this time is just an opportunity, and we will definitely make him pay for his blood debt." ”
Hua Manlou said: "If it's not rough, I won't let him go easily this time." ”
Li Yunfei interjected: "Yes, with the arrival of so many masters this time, we will definitely eliminate the Iron Shoe Thief." ”
Hua Ruling had a great birthday and built a crape myrtle pavilion to receive friends and guests. The Hua family had a three-day feast to celebrate the event.
Hua Ruling stepped forward and said: "Thank you for coming, if it's just Hua's birthday, Hua will never dare to disturb your relatives and friends." Tonight is the Menghe Lantern Festival, and the lights will be put on for seven days and seven nights. In addition to feasting, you can also enjoy the lanterns and flowers upstairs. Isn't it happy? ”
The hall was full of laughter, and they had no idea that many people would die later.
Li Yunfei and Lu Xiaofeng are the chairmen, with a table of good wine and good food. While these people were drinking, a blond-haired foreigner danced in and said in his awkward Chinese: "Distinguished guests, at the order of the king of the Hanhai Kingdom, I have come to congratulate Hua Daxia on his 60th birthday. I have prepared a little trick to help everyone have fun. ”
After saying that, many large vats rolled in, and out of each barrel came a child, and these children came out with congratulatory gifts, gold, silver, jewelry, and gold agate.
While everyone was applauding, a veiled woman came in and danced a different way. It's also beautiful.
Everyone was happy and started drinking again. Lu Xiaofeng also drank one by one. In the entire wine table, only Li Yunfei and Hua Manlou did not drink.
Li Yunfei didn't drink because he knew that the wine was poisonous. But this Lu Xiaofeng drank cup by cup.
Lu Xiaofeng picked up the wine glass and said to Li Yunfei: "Come, dry this glass of wine." ”
Li Yunfei bowed his hand and said, "I don't want to drink, I'm not very comfortable." ”
Lu Xiaofeng said with a smile: "What's the matter, this beauty is currently full of friends, with wine in the cup and meat on the plate." It's the moment of triumph in life, why are you not happy. ”
Li Yunfei stopped him and said secretly: "This wine is wrong, didn't you drink it?"
Lu Xiaofeng asked: "What's wrong, this wine is fragrant, it's a rare wine from the Western Regions, what's wrong with you." ”
Hua Manlou interjected: "Didn't you find that this wine is too fragrant?" And it has a taste of spices from the Western Regions. ”
Lu Xiaofeng picked up the wine and said, "Is there one? I only smell the aroma of wine." Don't be too nervous, everyone is here, and the Iron Shoe Thief doesn't dare to come even if he has the audacity. ”
Hua Manlou said: "You better drink slowly, I'll go back to the room first." Then he went back to his room.
Li Yunfei pulled up Lu Xiaofeng and said, "You come out with me, I have something to say to you." ”
Lu Xiaofeng and Li Yunfei walked out, and Li Yunfei said, "Lu Xiaofeng, are we friends?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes, we are best friends. ”
Li Yunfei said: "Then do you believe my words or not." ”
Lu Xiaofeng was puzzled: "What did you say?"
Li Yunfei said: "Today, you drank poisonous wine, I have seen this poison, it is not easy to find it mixed in wine, but I have heard of this poison, it seems to be called Chixia red, so I know that the manifestation of this poison has the taste of spices in the Western Regions." I would never be mistaken. There's nothing wrong with the feeling of being full of flowers. ”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "How is this possible, the Hua family is heavily guarded, how can there be poison in the wine." ”
Li Yunfei said: "This, I don't know, you go back, don't make people suspicious, I'll go back to the room first, you go back alone, just say I'm uncomfortable when asked." After speaking, Li Yunfei walked towards the room.
