Chapter Seventy-Six: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell

Next to the row of houses connected to the study of Liu Xuance, the owner of Qingfeng Village, there is a wild tree with heavy snow pressing the branches.

There were several figures standing under the trees.

Seeing that the three masters of the family, Guan Bei and Xu Du, left Liu Xuance's room one after another, Zhao Hanting couldn't wait to order the brothers beside him and said, "Take them." ”

The white-clothed Luo Lang, who was respected as a model for picking flowers, hurriedly stopped: "Don't worry. Our goal is Liu Xuance, as for the three masters and that minion, after the overall situation has been decided, we will persuade them to surrender. If it doesn't work, it's not too late to kill. ”

A brother echoed and said: "What Brother Luo said is reasonable. It is best to avoid copycat self-consumption. ”

Zhao Hanting nodded: "Go follow and see what tricks they play." ”

After a cup of tea, the three masters of the family, Guan Bei, led Su Hanshan and Li Tianxia, who were dressed in night clothes, to return. After another stick of incense, Xu Du took three brothers and carried two black wooden boxes into the study.

in the room.

Liu Xuance, who was holding a feather fan with a green scarf on his head, couldn't notice that he glanced at Qiu Guanbei and Xu Du, and the three of them approached the brother with a blank face standing next to the pitch-black wooden box. Then he shot with lightning speed and quietly knocked the three brothers unconscious.

Seeing this, Su Hanshan and Li Tianxia couldn't help but be vigilant.

The two of them, full of doubts, quickly approached each other, back to back.

Su Hanshan put his palm on the hilt of Mozi's Spring and Autumn Sword and asked, "What does Lord Liuzhai mean by this?"

Liu Xuance hugged his fists: "Don't panic, you don't mean to be embarrassed." ”

Li Tianxia, the crown prince of the Southern Dynasty, did not dare to relax: "Explain and explain." ”

Qiu Guanbei and Xu Du looked at the big boss together.

Liu Xuance sighed, turned around and walked to the bookshelf, took two picture scrolls, and spread them out on the bookcase.

It turned out to be a portrait of Su Hanshan and Li Tianxia.

The two people who concealed their identities and challenged the mountain every other day were surprised and frightened.

Liu Xuance said: "Actually, as early as the first time you climbed the mountain, I knew your identity. ”

When these words came out, not only did Su Hanshan and Li Tianxia become more and more vigilant, but even Qiu Guanbei and Xu Du were extremely puzzled, thinking what kind of identity was it that deserved to be so cautious by the owner of the village?

Li Tianxia forced a smile and deliberately said tentatively: "My son-in-law is from Jiangdong, and he has already made it clear when he first climbed the mountain, so what is his ineffable identity?"

Liu Hyun Ce chuckled.

He naturally understands the caution shown by the prince of the Southern Dynasty. In order to avoid being casually deceived into revealing the true identity, it is the most correct choice to deny it without conclusive evidence.

Liu Xuance doesn't intend to find out completely, sometimes there are some things, just need to keep a bottom in their hearts. As for whether his words are true or false, I believe that the Nine Emperor Princes have their own judgment in their hearts.

The master of Qingfeng Village said: "The two of you can choose to question Liu's words, but please believe the next sentence, because it is about your life and death!"

Li Tianxia smiled: "Let's hear it." ”

Liu Xuance said: "Someone wants to put two people to death. To be exact, someone is going to take Li Gongzi's life, just tonight!"

Su Hanshan was slightly stunned.

He looked at Liu Xuance's bottomless eyes, and thought to himself, could it be that what this person said was true? Looking at this picture scroll, it seems to be the appearance of what he was wearing when he returned to the north, could it be that he had been targeted by Qingfeng Village when he passed by this mountain?

For a long time, this Liuzhai master has not made it clear, what is the picture?

He had a lot of questions on his mind.

Qiu Guanbei and Xu Du also had many questions in their hearts.

Listening to what the owner of the village said, Na Luo Lang and Feng Songhan mixed into Qingfeng Village and did not hesitate to provoke civil strife, but the ultimate target was these two people? They looked at Su Hanshan's eyes, full of curiosity.

Thinking about what kind of sensitive identity is worth such a lot of trouble?

Compared with Su Hanshan's doubts, Li Tianxia, who thought that he had enough experience in the rivers and lakes, didn't think too much, and said: "The person who wants to take the life of my son-in-law is not the master of Liuzhai?"

Liu Xuance said with a smile: "Who it is, the two of you just need to think about whether they have offended any great characters recently, and they will know if they think about it." ”

A name sprung up in Su Hanshan's mind.

He looked at the crown prince of the Southern Dynasty.

Li Tianxia obviously also thought of the festival with Su Xie Yu in Xunfang Building, and looked hesitant.

Liu Xuance calculated the time, knowing that it could not be delayed any longer, and that there would be changes later, so he briefly said the reason: "Not long ago, two brothers with good cultivation were mixed in the cottage, and they instigated the second master and bought dozens of brothers in the cottage. Just tonight, those people were ready to replace Liu. ”

But in Liu's view, the civil strife in the cottage caused by the competition for the position of the big boss is just a cover for people's ears, and their real targets are the two. ”

"If the two of you are still suspicious of Liu, you might as well go down the mountain with me to see if there are any ambushes of the imperial court around the foot of the mountain in the name of encircling and suppressing the cottage. ”

Listening to what Liu Xuance said, Li Tianxia felt more and more that this method of killing people with a knife was familiar with the experience outside Daliang Pass. From beginning to end, his hands are not bloody, and there is a perfect excuse to get rid of suspicion and cover up the truth, which is really like the handwriting of those princes.

However, there are still doubts about this.

Li Tianxia said: "Assuming what you said is true, since someone in the cottage wants to put the two of us to death, how can we easily go down the mountain? Isn't this a contradiction?"

Liu Xuance said: "In the name of killing me, take the lives of two people." After all, the three of us are tied together at the moment, if the two of us can trust Liu......"

Su Hanshan didn't wait for Liu Xuance's words to finish before he interrupted and said, "I believe in the words of the village master. ”

The Nine Emperor Princes, Su Hanshan, was not naΓ―ve.

In fact, at this moment, he noticed a fragmented movement around the study.

......

The white-clothed Luo Lang and the second master, Zhao Hanting, took more than 30 brothers and walked towards Liu Xuance's study. And more than 30 brothers were also ambushed around the cottage to prevent any fish from slipping through the net.

That's when the door to the study opened.

The third leader of the family, Guan Bei, walked out with four brothers and two black wooden boxes.

They happened to meet Luo Lang and the others.

Qiu Guanbei, who only had one eye to see, clenched his fist at the second master: "Second brother." ”

Zhao Hanting's gaze swept over Xu Du and the other three brothers, and asked, "What is this for?"

Qiu Guanbei said: "The big boss asked for two boxes of jewelry for some reason, and this has just been delivered. ”

Zhao Hanting sneered.

I thought that Liu Xuance seemed to be aware of it, and was ready to flee with the few belongings left in the stockade.

He waved his hand disappreciatively: "Go down." ”

Qiu Guanbei nodded and gestured to Xu Du and the others.

But he didn't take a step, and was suddenly blocked by Luo Lang.

"Wait a minute. ”

Qiu Guanbei was slightly stunned.

Xu Du's heart tightened.

The other three brothers also bowed their heads.

The white-clothed Luo Lang held a folding fan in his hand, smiled darkly, and circled around Xu Du and the four of them, and then pointed to the pitch-black wooden box and said, "Open it......"

Qiu Guanbei's face was slightly cold: "Are you ordering me?"

Luo Lang realized that he had lost his tone, and hurriedly smiled: "What the three masters said, it's just about copycat property, it's better to be cautious." ”

The one-eyed Qiu Guanbei was majestic: "But after ten days in the cottage, when will it be your turn to speak here?"

Luo Lang chuckled.

Then he retreated wittily and retreated behind Zhao Hanting, the second master.

"Turn it on. Zhao Hanting said.
