Volume II, Chapter 52: The Dead
Feng Zimo said: "That, Miss Dongfang, thank you for your kindness, it's just that I really don't feel that way for you, so I'm sorry." ”
Feng Zimo did not procrastinate in the slightest, and simply refused to listen to the rain in the east.
Dongfang Tingyu was not surprised by this answer, she smiled and said, "This result is within my expectations. Thank you for coming and telling me in person, instead of letting Lingzun Lingtang come and tell his father and make him lose face. ”
Feng Zimo looked at Dongfang a little apologetically and listened to the rain.
"Don't look at me like that, I act like you don't want to marry. Four-legged toads are hard to find, there are many good men with two legs, and I am so beautiful that I don't worry about getting married at all. "The East listens to the rain and is open-minded. She is a person who can afford to let go, since Feng Zimo is not interesting to herself, then there is no need for her to be entangled anymore, let go and stop the loss in time, which is good for both parties.
Hearing Dongfang Tingyu say this, Feng Zimo breathed a sigh of relief, he was not afraid that Dongfang Tingyu would entangle him, but he was afraid that his behavior would hurt this good girl's heart.
"Don't call me Miss Dongfang in the future, it sounds weird. Call me my sister like Yun'er, I just want a younger brother. ”
"Okay, listen to Sister Yu."
After a while, Feng Zimo came out of the Yue Guo Mansion, and Feng Yun'er was waiting for him with his back against the stone lion. Seeing him come out, Feng Yun'er hurriedly walked over: "Brother." ”
Feng Zimo glanced at her and said, "Did you already know about this from Brother Luo?" ”
Feng Yun'er scratched her head a little embarrassed, and said, "Brother Luo Ling only told me that Sister Dongfang was dressed as a man and she wanted to make a marriage contract with you, but as for why she wanted to dress up as a man, she didn't tell me." By the way, brother, how did you two talk? ”
"You want her to be your sister-in-law?" Feng Zimo asked rhetorically.
"Well, I still like Sister Qiu Shi. But Sister Dongfang is also very beautiful and very filial, if she is my sister-in-law, I have no opinion. ”
"It's a pity that she doesn't have a chance to be your sister-in-law."
"You rejected her?"
"Well, she's very good, but my brother doesn't feel that way for her, so let's make it clear, don't delay others."
"I guessed you wouldn't agree to her, and it did." A voice suddenly sounded, and Luo Ling didn't know where it came from.
"Brother Luo Ling, you eavesdrop on us."
"You have wronged me, I have just arrived, and I only heard the sentence just now."
Feng Zimo carefully looked at Luo Ling from head to toe.
"Why, don't you know?"
"Brother Luo, you are a talent, and Sister Tingyu is also a talented woman, why don't you try it? Maybe there's a chance. ”
"Me? Come on. I grew up with her since I was a child, and I can become an early date, how can I get your turn? ”
"That's right."
"Okay, let's not talk about it, it's almost noon, I'll invite you to dinner."
"Then it's disrespectful."
……
The three of them came to a restaurant.
"Three guest officers, please." The shopkeeper walked over with a smile on his face.
Luo Ling said: "Bring you the best food here." ”
"Okay!"
The three of them found a table and sat down, Feng Yun'er picked up the kettle and poured three glasses of water, took a sip of one cup herself, looked around, and whispered, "Don't you think there's something wrong here?" ”
"Huh?"
After being reminded by Feng Yun'er, Feng Zimo and Luo Ling looked at the rest of the restaurant. At this time, it was time for lunch, and the restaurant was full of seats, very lively. This seems to be normal and there is no problem, but Feng Zimo and the others found that many of the people who were eating here were not concentrating on eating, but looked outside the restaurant from time to time, as if they were waiting for someone.
At this time, a drunken man came down from the second floor drunk, burping wine in his mouth as he walked, and it seemed that he was not lightly drunk.
When he was about to walk to the door, the drunken man happened to collide with a tall man who had just gotten up from the stool, and the two collided solidly, and the drunk man was knocked to the ground, but the tall man did not move, and did not even shake it.
This collision directly attracted the eyes of those who looked outside the restaurant from time to time to the drunken man, and their eyes were full of vigilance when they looked at the drunken man, and their expressions were all indifferent without exception.
The tall man who had been hit didn't speak, but walked straight to the other table and sat down, as if he hadn't seen the drunk man at all.
"Lian Jiazi." Luo Ling whispered.
Feng Yun'er: "When I came in just now, I found that there were a lot of people like this on the street, what do you say they want to do?" ”
"Whatever they want to do has nothing to do with us, don't get into trouble. Let's go, eat in another house. Feng Zimo said. He is not the kind of person who likes to meddle in things, he also saw the expressions of those people just now, the same expression he had seen on the faces of the dead soldiers who infiltrated the Prison Tiger City to assassinate Feng Chenyu five years ago. It is definitely not ordinary people who can gather so many dead soldiers in Jinling City, and what they want to do must not be a good thing, Feng Zimo doesn't want to get the Chu State Mansion into trouble.
Just as the three of them got up and were about to leave, the dead soldiers suddenly moved, and they all stood up and walked towards the outside of the restaurant. Immediately after that, a scream came from the street outside the restaurant, and the people ran away in a panic. The group of dead men got into a fight with another group of people in the street.
The three of them sat down again, not to stay and watch the excitement, but in the current situation, they couldn't leave if they wanted to.
"Brother, should we go out and help?" Feng Yun'er asked.
"Help? Who are you helping? This matter has nothing to do with our Chu State Mansion, don't get caught on fire, now the Chu State Mansion can no longer make enemies. ”
"Okay."
"That man looks familiar...... It's His Royal Highness the Prince! Luo Ling suddenly discovered something, and his eyes widened suddenly.
The gang fighting the dead was protecting a young man, and the dead were targeting that young man. The young man is none other than the prince of Liang State, Xiao Ruiming.
Is it the ghost of King Song? Feng Zimo said secretly in his heart. Then he looked at Luo Ling: "Brother Luo, help me take care of Yun'er, I'll go back when I go." ”
Feng Zimo originally planned to stand by and watch, but the dead man was eyeing Xiao Ruiming, so he couldn't ignore it. Now the Duke of Chu Mansion is on the side of the East Palace, if something happens to Xiao Ruiming, it will definitely be Xiao Ruiying who enters the East Palace, and he will not let go of the Duke of Chu Mansion easily. So no matter what, Feng Zimo couldn't let Xiao Ruiming be killed, although he didn't like His Royal Highness the Prince.
"Brother, I'll go with you." Feng Yun'er said.
"No, you'll be honest with me." Feng Zimo categorically rejected Feng Yun'er, those dead soldiers were some outlaws, and he couldn't let Feng Yun'er go on an adventure with him.
"Yun'er stays here, I'll go with you." Luo Ling said.
Feng Zimo shook his head and said: "I'm afraid this time it's probably the ghost of King Song, the Marquis Mansion of Wuyang has always been neutral, if Brother Luo goes, I'm afraid that the Marquis Mansion of Wuyang will also be dragged into this muddy water." You stay here and help me take care of Yun'er, don't let her run around. ”
Feng Zimo got up and walked out of the restaurant.
"Brother, be careful!"
At this time, there were only four or five East Palace guards left around Xiao Ruiming, and there were at least twenty dead soldiers, and if it continued like this, it was only a matter of time before Xiao Ruiming was killed.
The tall man who was in the restaurant rushed in front of Xiao Ruiming, slashed over two East Palace guards and cut Xiao Ruiming's arm, Xiao Ruiming fell to the ground, his eyes were full of fear of death.
The tall man raised the knife in his hand and was about to slash at Xiao Ruiming, who had already subconsciously closed his eyes.
"Dangchang!"
The sound of weapons colliding with each other rang out. Xiao Ruiming, who realized that he was not dead, opened his eyes and found that it was Feng Zimo who helped him block the knife cut by the tall man.
Feng Zimo suddenly exerted his strength, shook away the tall man's knife, and then kicked out his left foot like lightning, hitting the tall man's abdomen and forcing him back.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are you alright?" Feng Zimo helped Xiao Ruiming up and asked.
The frightened Xiao Ruiming shook his head: "This palace is fine, thank you General Feng for saving your life!" ”
Before Feng Zimo could answer, the tall man raised his knife to attack again, and Feng Zimo hurriedly pushed Xiao Ruiming away and swung his knife to meet him.
The tall man slashed at Feng Zimo Tianling Gai, Feng Zimo first raised his knife to stand it, and then pressed the tall man's knife underneath with a backhand, and slashed along the latter's knife towards his shoulder.
Seeing this, the tall man immediately let go of the hand holding the knife, and instead choked Feng Zimo's wrist, and then made a fist with his other hand and hit Feng Zimo's heart.
Feng Zimo's left leg was raised, so that his knee rested against the tall man's wrist, and at the same time, his body shook a little, causing his heart to deviate from the range of the tall man's attack.
This punch hit Feng Zimo's chest firmly, and a mouthful of blood burst out. However, this did not affect Feng Zimo's movements in the slightest, he released the knife in his hand, causing the knife to fall on his raised left foot, and then flung it hard, the knife stabbed into the stomach of the tall man, the tall man showed a painful expression on his face, and his body slowly fell, dying on the spot.
Feng Zimo covered his chest and coughed violently. It's good that he reacted quickly just now, otherwise he would be lying on the ground now. Feng Zimo's use of a gun is a must, and the use of a sword is also good, but the use of a knife is a little unsatisfactory, it is basically a random chop, this knife is still picked up by him from the corpse of an East Palace guard on the ground, and it is particularly uncomfortable to use. In addition, the tall man is also a master, which makes him so embarrassed.
"Brother, go on!" Feng Yun'er's voice sounded, and then a bamboo pole flew out of the restaurant, which Feng Yun'er specially asked for from the shopkeeper.
