To say why Jianghu people come to Qianjialou, the reason for this is actually very simple.

Just this morning, they received a message from Fengyu Building almost at the same time, saying that if they wanted to know the whereabouts of the Thief Saint Secret Treasure, they would gather in Qianjialou in the middle of the night tonight.

Therefore, the people of the rivers and lakes are here.

But whether this news from Fengyulou is credible, none of them dare to be sure. And there are still many doubts in their hearts that have not been resolved. For example, if Fengyulou really knew where the Thief Saint Secret Treasure was, why didn't he find it himself, and it wouldn't be good for them to make it public.

For another example, it is rumored that Xiao Muqiu has always had a very good relationship with the thief Saint Li Si, would he really do such a downright thing, or is this simply a means to cover people's ears.

The people in the rivers and lakes are not sure what the purpose of Fengyulou is doing this, and they are not sure whether this news is true or false. But it was because of uncertainty that they came.

Anyway, it's a piece of news, and they always need to hear it to tell the truth from the fake. There are even hints of true news in some fake news, and they don't want to be left behind.

This time, most of the people who came to search for the secret treasure of the Holy Saint were some people of the three religions and nine streams, and it was difficult to see them in the rivers and lakes on weekdays, but this kind of treasure hunting and secret picking up cheap things has always been indispensable to their traces. So they don't care what the source of the news is, as long as it is useful, they will come to listen.

At present, the lobby of Qianjialou is already full of people, men and women, old and young, those with knives and swords, those who pose music without scores, in short, there are all kinds of people.

Miao Fenglan, the leader of the Five Poisons Sect, was sitting next to a square table at this time, teasing the poisonous snake in her hand and playing with Xiao He who was standing aside.

She has always liked handsome and beautiful men, so as soon as she entered the door, she asked Xiaohe to entertain her by name. She seems to have a set of skills in distinguishing men, so even if Xiaohe is almost a woman now, she recognizes it as a boy at a glance.

"Little brother~" Gently waving her slender white palm, Miao Fenglan guided the poisonous snake in her hand to Ning Caihe's side.

"Are you afraid of snakes?"

"Hmm. Looking at the poisonous snake standing beside him and spitting out the letter, Ning Caihe's eyes were red, and his voice trembled in response.

His lips had lost their blood with fright, and his shoulders were trembling.

However, Miao Fenglan felt more interesting about his reaction, narrowed her eyes, and gently picked her chin with her palm and said.

"Don't worry, you're so cute, as long as you're obedient, my sister won't let this beast bite you. ”

With that, she let out a soft whistle from her mouth, and the viper crawled back onto her shoulder.

"Come, pour my sister another cup of tea. Pointing to the empty teacup in front of her, Miao Fenglan glanced at Ning Caihe with a sweet smile.

"I, I know. Ning Caihe didn't dare to say a word at this time, and added a glass of water to Miao Fenglan in a trembling voice.

"Hey, that's good. Miao Fenglan smiled even more happily, and reached out and touched Ning Caihe's face a few times, so frightened that Ning Caihe almost didn't knock over the teapot.

Here, Miao Fenglan was teasing Ning Caihe, and on the other side, a man with strange makeup was also sitting at a table by himself, fiddling with a puppet in his hand.

He is also a well-known person in the rivers and lakes, but unlike Miao Fenglan, almost no one dares to approach his surroundings. Even though Miao Fenglan's body was full of poison, and there was only one puppet in his hand.

The reason is simple, because this man is a notoriously weirdo. He has a strange appearance, a strange temper, a strange behavior, and even a strange move.

He is the strange old man of the Nine Yin Sect.

He is said to be old because he has really lived for a long time, but he can't see it from his appearance.

At first glance, he looked like a young man in his twenties and thirties, but with a thick layer of powder, his whole face was an unnatural white. The eyes are slender, and two strange eyeliners are outlined with black ink. The lips were painted blood-red, which made people shudder when they looked at it, and they only felt an inexplicable weirdness.

He was like the puppet in his hand, with a strange appearance, but silent, like a dead thing, but occasionally moved.

And in his hands, as he fiddles, the doll will also take some weird poses from time to time. Sometimes it seems to be laughing, sometimes it is like being sad, sometimes it is like being happy, sometimes it is like being angry. Between joy, anger and sorrow, it is fickle, with a kind of silent grotesqueness, which makes people feel jealous, and unconsciously hide away.

As for this strange old man's martial arts, there are different opinions on this point. Few people have seen him make a move, some say it is because he doesn't make a move, and some people say that it is because the people who have seen him make a move are no longer in this world. And in the end, Wen Renli, who had a weapon spectrum, ranked this person's puppet in the first place in the weapons of the Qimen in the rivers and lakes. This can be regarded as the most direct evaluation of his martial arts so far.

In the hall, the people of the rivers and lakes waited for a long time. Seeing that it was about to be the middle of the night, Miao Fenglan put away her poisonous snake, strange that the old man was laughing with the puppet in his hand, while he was calm.

The people outside the door also gathered in front of the door, seemingly waiting for Fengyulou to come and reveal the mystery.

At this time, Li Si was still hiding in the backyard, he didn't want the people in the rivers and lakes to recognize him, and he had to wait for someone here.

He believed that if it had anything to do with that person, that person would come to him.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a gust of wind to sound behind him.

Li Si turned around directly, looked a little depressed, lowered his voice with his internal qi, looked at the man and asked.

"Xiao Muqiu, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Smack. It was the sound of a folding fan opening.

Xiao Muqiu stood there dressed in brocade clothes, looked at Li Si with a smile and replied, "Of course I want to help Brother Li." ”

"Now the hall is full of people from the rivers and lakes. Slightly raising a frown, Li Si took a deep breath and tried to keep himself as calm as possible.

"That's how you helped me, so thank you so much. ”

Just when Li Si was thinking about whether to pull Xiao Muqiu to die together.

Xiao Muqiu put down the folding fan in his hand, turned sideways easily, and said with a pace.

"Don't be in a hurry, Brother Li, to solve a problem, you have to cause a problem first, this is my experience in solving problems for people for many years, believe me, I am very professional. ”

As he spoke, he stopped again and glanced at Li Si with a chuckle.

"Although I am a businessman, I also pay attention to gratitude and gratitude. You have helped me in the past, so now I will not put you in the unjust place. It's just that you need to trust me. ”

Looking at Xiao Muqiu's "sincere" appearance, Li Si inexplicably felt a little wrong.

This is not his personality.

But now, he himself has no good way to deal with the large group of people outside, and after thinking about it three times, he can only listen to Xiao Muqiu for the time being.

"Okay, as long as it can solve the problem, I can listen to you first, but how do I do it. Rubbing his brow tiredly, Li Si asked weakly.

"You don't have to do anything. Xiao Muqiu smiled like a fox, took out a crimson cloth belt from his arms and said to Li Si.

"You just need to take this with you and follow me. ”
