Chapter 363: Secretly Helping the Beauty
The two talked and laughed for a while, then went to find Rudan and prepared to go down the mountain together. As soon as I arrived at the gate of Lushan Temple, I saw a group of people chattering together. Li Feng's curiosity was aroused, and he also squeezed in.
It turned out that Rudan saw an old man suddenly faint just now, and she hurriedly squatted down for treatment. She unfolded the "golden needle through the acupoint" method, and after a few stitches, the old man woke up slowly.
Rudan said: "Old man, you are weak, you should move slowly, don't rush up and squat. Otherwise, it will be easy to faint. I have a few pills here, and when I feel flustered, I take it with water, and it can have some effect. "The girl is kind-hearted, and there will be good rewards in the future." "Thank you, old man."
The people around were amazed and said: "Fortunately, there is this mushroom girl, otherwise it will be troublesome, it is really a miracle doctor." ”
When Liu Shui and Li Feng saw it, they thought that this Rudan was really good, so they said: "Female Hua Tuo, it's time to go home." "Well, let's go down the hill then!" The group descended the mountain road and soon came to the river.
After crossing the river and returning to the east bank, Li Feng and Rudan were reluctant, Li Feng told Rudan the address of his home, told Rudan to go to the house to talk when he was free, and then went home.
Early the next morning, Li Feng took Liu Shui to hang out in the southern city of Tanzhou. Passing by a mansion, but seeing the high walls of the mansion, the soldiers guarding the gate watched vigilantly at the passers-by. Liu Shui thought to himself, I don't know who lives here, and the momentum is not small.
Liu Shui quietly asked Li Fengdao: "Miss Feng, whose house is this?" ”
Li Feng said: "This is the mansion of Governor Shi Xuqiong of Tanzhou, and his power in Tanzhou is second only to that of Thorn History. "On the way to Tanzhou, Liu Shui heard that Tanzhou's tax money had been robbed many times, and it should have nothing to do with this person.
Thinking of this, Liu Shui couldn't help but stop and carefully looked at this mansion. Seeing this, Li Feng asked in surprise, "Brother Liu, why don't you leave?" Liu Shui briefly said his suspicions to Li Feng.
Li Feng nodded and said, "Your suspicions also have some truth. Tax money has been robbed many times, and the government should have internal response. As for whether it is this Xu Changshi, there is no evidence, and it is difficult to determine. Liu Shui said: "I want to come to find out the news at night, now can you accompany me around his mansion?" Li Feng agreed.
So the two of them walked around the Xu Mansion, carefully observing the surrounding roads and buildings, and finding a good path to enter and exit at night. After a careful inspection, Liu Shui said: "You didn't eat well yesterday, why don't we go to the Drunken Immortal Tower again?" ”
Li Feng smiled slightly and said, "It's rare that you still remember, that's the best, you invite me to dinner." Liu Shui replied: "No problem, let's go over." After a while, the two came to the Drunken Immortal Tower.
Liu Shui and Li Feng returned home and told Li Yan about their intention to visit Xu's mansion at night. After listening to this, Li Yan thought for a while and said, "This Xu Qiong's identity is complicated, and there is indeed something suspicious. ”
Liu Shui asked, "Are the seniors familiar with this person?" Li Yan said: "I don't know him very well, I have only heard some about his experience before." ”
It turned out that Xu Qiong's father was called Xu Xuanche, and he was Xu Xuanche, the subordinate general of Liang Wang Xiao Mill. Xu Xuanche surrendered to the Tang Dynasty with Xiao Mo and was named the Taishou of Yuezhou. After Xu Xuanche's death, Xu Qiong also entered the officialdom. His official position gradually rose until he became the governor of Tan.
Li Feng shouted that he was going too, but Li Yan didn't allow it. He was afraid that if his identity was revealed, it would be difficult to deal with. Liu Shui just checked it, and it was convenient for him to act secretly, so he finally persuaded Li Feng.
After nightfall, Liu Shui changed into night clothes, wrapped a folding fan, and said to Li Feng: "Miss Feng'er, you rest early, I'll go." "Be careful alone, don't do it casually, I'll wait for you to come back." Li Fengdao. Liu Shui nodded in agreement and ran towards Xu's mansion.
After a short time, Liu Shui arrived outside the west wall of Xu's mansion and listened attentively, and the courtyard was quiet. Liu Shui lifted the light skill, flew up the high wall, looked forward, and flew up to the tallest tree nearby. Standing on a branch, Liu Shui carefully looked around.
The tree is surrounded by a forest, and beyond the forest is a garden of more than ten acres. The road in the garden is winding, and a rockery flower garden surrounds a pond. At the end of the garden is an open field. Then there are several rows of houses, scattered and scattered. In the open field, there are two teams of nurses patrolling each other, each team of about 10 people.
After Liu Shui finished reading, he went straight to the garden. As he was walking, he suddenly saw a figure in front of him running into the garden. Liu Shui thought to himself, could it be a snitch? Just as he led the way, he followed the shadow.
The figure stumbled out of the garden, apparently familiar with the path. The man took advantage of the back and forth of the patrol to cross the clearing, flew onto the eaves, and over the roof. Seeing that there was no one in the courtyard, he jumped down from the house and landed lightly on the ground.
Liu Shui has been quietly following and also went to the roof. He saw that this person had done a good job, and he should not be an ordinary thief. Liu Shui looked down and saw that the courtyard was surrounded by houses on all sides, the middle of the courtyard was empty, and there were several pots of flowers and plants around it. The house opposite was brightly lit, and there was a faint sound. The man fell into the courtyard and walked against the wall. After a while, I came to the window where the lights were on.
The man gently poked a small hole with his finger and looked inside. I didn't listen for a while, but I heard someone inside shouting, "Who is outside?" Immediately after, a middle-aged man rushed out of it.
The man was startled, and immediately retreated when he heard the sound, and jumped onto the house. The people who rushed out of the house had already seen it and flew into the house. He was very fast, and although he was late, he went up to the eaves at the same time as the man, and followed by a palm that struck the man.
The man didn't expect the other party to be so fast, and he didn't have time to pull out the sword on his back, so he had to resist with his palm. Apparently the man lacked skill, and before his palms could touch, he was shot off the roof.
Fortunately, the man reacted very quickly, and after taking advantage of the situation, he flipped off the opponent's fierce palm power, but the person had already fallen in the courtyard. Listening to the movement, a lot of people soon came out. Suddenly the lights were on, and the courtyard was already like daylight. I saw that the man was also dressed like Liu Shui, dressed in black, covered with black veil, and surrounded by groups. Seeing that the situation was not good, the man drew his sword and protected it in front of him.
The man stood across from the man, with an extra sword in his hand. The man thought that he could at least injure the other party with one palm just now, but he didn't expect the other party to be unharmed, knowing that the other party's strength was not weak and he couldn't be careless. "Who are you? Dare to break into the Taishou Mansion at night. The man asked. What about the old thief? Let him come out and die! The man said angrily, but it was a woman's voice.
Liu Shui listened to the voice on the roof, and heard that it was the girl Zhou Hongying he met on the way here. At that time, when Liu Shui was passing by a barren mountain, he saw several bandits besieging a young and beautiful girl. Liu Shui stepped forward to help, and together with the girl, he beat away the bandits.
That girl was none other than Zhou Hongying. After Zhou Hongying and Liu Shui had a brief conversation, they thanked Liu Shui and left in a hurry. Liu Shui often acts chivalrous and righteous, and he didn't pay attention to this matter, but he didn't expect to meet her here.
Liu Shui thought to himself that judging from the fight between Zhou Hongying and the man just now, she should not be an opponent. Although Zhou Hongying was a little indifferent that week, she had a relationship with Liu Shui after all. In addition, she is very beautiful, Liu Shui has some good feelings for her, so he took a tile in his hand in case of emergency.
"Hmph, if you want to see your lord, you have to pass my Lin Zhen first." The man said, "Girl, if you know each other, as long as you lay down your sword, I will make you less guilty." "Dreaming." Zhou Hongyingjiao shouted, and the sound reached the sword, piercing Lin Zhen's eyebrows.
Lin Zhen swung his sword, and Zhou Hongying's sword had reversed, stabbing the opponent's chest obliquely. But she is fast, and the other party is also fast, Lin Zhen's big knife happened to cut the sword.
As soon as the sword touched, Zhou Hongying's mouth was numb, and the long sword was almost out of his hand. Zhou Hongying was shocked, but the matter had come to this point, so she could only fight desperately. But seeing her swordsmanship change, but seeing the sword light flying, the sword flowers blooming, fast as lightning, and her body shape fluttering, like a beautiful woman dancing. Liu Shui watched from a distance, and suddenly felt that the swordsmanship was mysterious, the moves were fantastic, and the figure was graceful and pleasing to the eye.
Lin Zhen was under her fast sword, and he couldn't help her for a while. Fortunately, her internal strength was insufficient, and she didn't dare to collide with Lin Zhen's big sword, which greatly reduced the power of her swordsmanship, and she couldn't help Lin Zhen. But making the sword like this naturally consumes great internal strength, and after more than ten moves, Zhou Hongying has shown fatigue, and the sword speed is slightly slow.
Liu Shui saw that Zhou Hongying was in danger, and immediately threw tiles at Lin Zhen. Lin Zhen was attacked and forced to retreat. Seeing this, Hongying hurriedly jumped onto the roof and ran forward.
Liu Shui saw that Zhou Hongying had escaped and left, so he no longer paid attention to the shouts of the people below, and hurriedly flew behind him. In the moonlight, two figures rushed forward, one behind the other. Liu Shui's light skills were even better, and he caught up with Zhou Hongying in a short time.
Liu Shui jumped violently, crossed Zhou Hongying's head, floated in front of her, and said slowly: "Miss Zhou, just say goodbye like this?" ”
Zhou Hongying was shocked, hurriedly retracted her figure, lifted her sword, and shouted, "What person?" ”
Liu Shui said lightly: "Your life-saving benefactor." ”
Hongying asked suspiciously, "You helped just now?" How do you know my surname is Zhou? ”
Liu Shui said: "Not bad. Without the tiles I threw out, it might be hard for you to get out. ”
Zhou Hongying believed that he was helping her, and when she saw that Liu Shui was also masked, she said, "Thank you very much." But since you're also covering your face, there must be some inconvenience. So how about we leave it at that, and go our separate ways? ”
Liu Shui said with a smile: "The grace of saving lives is just a word of thanks, have you sent it away?" Miss Zhou is also too stingy. ”
Zhou Hongying was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you want?" ”
Liu Shui said: "Make a promise with your body! ”
"You...... Sling the bull. Zhou Hongying was so angry that her face was flushed, fortunately it was at night, and there was a black veil covering her, otherwise she was really ashamed.
"Hehe, look at you nervous, just joking with you. Even if you want to, I don't dare to accept it. Liu Shui said as he took off the black cloth.
Zhou Hongying took a closer look through the moonlight and shouted: "It turned out to be you?" ”
Liu Shui said: "I didn't expect it! Zhou Hongying also pulled down the black veil and said, "There is an abandoned house in front, let's go there and talk!" Liu Shui agreed.
The two of them came to the hut together, and there happened to be some waste wood in it. Liu Shui lit dry wood with a fire fold and lit a small bonfire. Zhou Hongying's white and round face looked particularly charming against the backdrop of the firelight, and Liu Shui couldn't help but be stunned.
