Chapter Twenty-Nine: Aunt Gongsun
The Snake King lowered his head, and there was an unforgettable hatred in his eyes. That kind of hatred is like killing someone.
The Snake King slowly told his experience, and even Li Yunfei could feel the sadness.
"My family, my wife, all of them were killed by her, and my two children. Have you ever seen my children, they are all smart and clever children, they are only five or six years old, they are all gone, everything I have is gone. I've endured it for ten years, and this time I'm going to cut off this cause and effect with my own hands. ”
The Serpent King took out his sword and wiped it slowly, but his trembling hands betrayed him.
Lu Xiaofeng looked at the trembling hands of the Snake King and said, "In order to escape this hatred, you came here to hide in the market, because you know that your enemy will always think that you have become the Snake King." The Serpent King wanted to speak, but in the end, he still didn't speak.
Lu Xiaofeng said: "It's a pity that this hatred is something you can never forget." So as soon as you have a chance. You're desperate to put an end to it. ”
He suddenly walked over and put his arm on Snake Seven's shoulder. Staring into the eyes of the Snake King, he said, "Now that you have a chance, have you discovered the whereabouts of your enemy?"
The Serpent King still kept his mouth shut, but his expression was even more painful.
Lu Xiaofeng continued: "Who is your enemy?
The Serpent King finally spoke, and he said slowly, "You have enough trouble of your own, but you still have to take care of other people's affairs. ”
Lu Xiaofeng sighed and said, "I know that you have a favor to others, but you don't like others to repay you." But I'm not trying to repay you. I just wanted to make a deal with you. ”
The Snake King asked strangely, "What deal?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Let's help you deal with your enemy, you help me find Xue Bing." We don't owe each other. How?"
The Snake King sneered, "This is my business, why do I want you to help me do it." ”
Lu Xiaofeng still refused to relax, and said coldly: "Because your hands are shaking." Because you've been sick for ten years, because you feel more painful to live than to die. But I don't want you to die at that man's hands. I don't want the person who made you like this to live in the world. ”
The Serpent King looked at him, tears welling up from his eyes like a spring. The snake king's throat was already choked, and he was already hoarse, "She is not a human, she is a devil, her heart is more vicious than a snake and scorpion, and her methods are more terrible than a ghost." She is an evil spirit who escaped from hell. ”
Li Yunfei interjected: "So he is a woman or a man?"
The Serpent King said, "She's a witch. The witch of hell. ”
Lu Xiaofeng asked, "Then what's her name?"
"Aunt Gongsun" Snake King explained: "Actually, her original name is Gongsun Lan. It is said to be a descendant of the first celebrity in the Chuyong Sect. So people who know her also call her Aunt Gongsun. ”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why don't I know this person, I haven't even heard of this name." ”
"She's not a celebrity because she doesn't want to be a celebrity. She thinks there's always going to be trouble being a celebrity. ”
Li Yunfei sighed: "It seems that he is a smart woman. ”
Although Li Yunfei is not a big celebrity, Li Yunfei still knows the pain and troubles of being a celebrity.
The Serpent King said, "But she has used many other names. You might know the names. ”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Then you can talk about it." ”
The snake king said, "Female butcher, peach blossom bee, five poisonous lady, **mother-in-law...... You've heard these names. ”
Lu Xiaofeng's face changed, and she couldn't help asking, "These people are all her." ”
The Serpent King said, "Yes, these people are her, she is really a terrible person. ”
Li Yunfei asked, "How did you find such a terrible person?" ”
The Serpent King said, "It wasn't me who found her, but she who found me." With that, the Snake King took out a crumpled letter.
The letter reads: I know who you are, and I know that you must want to see me. On the night of the full moon, I will wait for you in the West Garden. The writing is beautiful and delicate. The signature below is a bouquet of orchids.
The snake king said: "This is a brother she gave to Chengnan, and asked him to hand it over to me in person." ”
Lu Xiaofeng groaned and said, "She didn't hand it over to you directly, maybe she doesn't know where you live yet!"
The Snake King said: "There are not many people who can come to this small building. ”
Li Yunfei nodded and said, "Then which West Garden is the West Garden she asked you to go to?"
The Snake King said: "It's the West Garden with a Lianli tree in it." Lu Xiaofeng: He knows. ”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Tomorrow is the night of the full moon?"
The snake king said: "Yes, so you have to rest for one night, and tomorrow you can recuperate enough to go to see Aunt Gongsun." I don't think I'm her match, but you, I'm still not at ease. ”
Lu Xiaofeng smiled: "It's okay, I've also seen people who are ten times more powerful than her, I'm still alive." What's more, Li Yunfei is also with me, and his swordsmanship is not jealous. What's more, he is also a master of the innate realm. ”
Li Yunfei said to the Snake King: "I'm not worried that we won't be able to fight Aunt Gongsun now, it's just that we can't recognize Aunt Gongsun's appearance, not to mention, she has so many layers of identity, and she hasn't been seen through yet, which shows that her disguise kung fu is superb, and we know who she is." ”
The Snake King said: "Yes, Aunt Gongsun's disguise is indeed exquisite, and she rarely shows her true face, but she has a problem, as long as you know her problem, you will definitely be able to recognize her." ”
Li Yunfei smiled: "Oh, what can be wrong with such a powerful character." ”
"This problem of hers is very special. The Serpent King said, "No matter what clothes she wears, what she looks like." The shoes she wears won't change. ”
At this time, Lu Xiaofeng's eyes seemed to glow, and he took the snake king's hand and asked, "What shoes is she wearing." ”
The Snake King said, "It's a pair of red shoes." ”
Lu Xiaofeng jumped up and shouted, "It's red shoes." ”
"Yes, the bright red embroidered shoes, like the kind worn by the bride, but the embroidered ones are not mandarin ducks, but owls. The Snake King nodded and said.
The West Garden is in the west of the city and is a large garden. It's past dusk. In the flowers, in the shade of the trees, between the pavilions and pavilions. Starry lights lit up. The evening breeze carries the fragrance of flowers, but also the smell of wine. The full moon is like a mirror, hanging from the treetops. It's a tree. Tall mahogany, two conjoined trees into one. It's like lovers hugging.
Li Yunfei and the others sat in the hall waiting for Aunt Gongsun, the bright moon like an ice tray had gradually risen to the hazy moonlight, which was heartbreakingly beautiful.
At this moment, Li Yunfei saw an old woman walk out under the shadow of the tree. A very old woman. Wearing a blue garment full of patches, it looks like a big stone is pressed on his back. It was as if it was going to crush her waist in the middle.
When she walked, it was as if she was bent over all the time, looking for something on the ground. The moonlight shone on her face, and her face was full of wrinkles. It looked like a piece of tissue paper had been crumpled up and unfolded.
Stir-fried chestnuts with bran" She also carried a large bamboo basket in her hand. Covered with a thick piece of cotton cloth, he shouted as he walked: "Freshly fried chestnuts with sugar, fragrant and hot fried chestnuts with sugar." It's only ten pennies a pound. A lonely, poor old woman has reached the twilight of her life. And to come out and sell her sugar-fried chestnuts one after another in her almost completely hoarse voice.
Lu Xiaofeng suddenly shouted: "Old woman, come here, I'll buy two catties." "The chestnuts are fragrant and hot. And it's just on the market.
"You said ten pennies a pound?" Lu Xiaofeng exclaimed: "Such a good chestnut will cost at least ten taels of silver a catty." I won't buy it for a penny. ”
The old woman smiled, and the wrinkles on her face deepened.
"Ten taels of silver a catty, if you are willing to sell, I will buy two catties. Lu Xiaofeng said with a smile. "But I have one more thing I want your help with. ”
The old woman smiled bitterly and said, "What can an old woman like me do for you?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Only you can do this." No one else. ”
The old woman asked strangely, "Why?"
Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Because your waist is bent, it seems that you are always looking for something on the ground, so I want you to find something for me." ”
"Looking for something. ”
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Find a woman wearing red shoes, and there is an owl embroidered on the red shoes." ”
The old woman laughed too, and told her to do this kind of thing. It couldn't be more appropriate. Even if she gets under someone else's skirt, others won't be suspicious.
