CHAPTER XXXIII

The air in the small hotel seemed to have frozen, and the four of them did not speak for a while.

After a long time, Lu Xiaofeng gently tapped the table twice and said, "Did Huo Xiu say in the letter what the specific conspiracy was?"

Dugu Yihe said coldly: "I didn't write it clearly, I just said that it involved the little prince back then." ”

His eyes showed anger and disappointment, and he said, "If he hadn't mentioned the little prince, I wouldn't have come here at all." ”

Lu Xiaofeng looked at this serious and withdrawn old man quietly, and suddenly found that his feelings for the Jinpeng Dynasty were far deeper than Huo Xiu's.

Zhao Ping'an suddenly said: "The relationship between the Taoist and Huo Xiu doesn't seem to be very good. ”

Dugu Yihe said: "Yes, when we were ministers in the same hall in the past, I and I always had political disagreements. ”

He added slowly, "And when we came to Middle-earth, after discovering that the little prince had broken his appointment, he was the only one who did not go all out to find the whereabouts of the little prince. ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why do you say that?"

Dugu Yihe said: "Among the three of us, Yan Tieshan is the head of the inner treasury and is good at financial management; I am good at only this martial arts and fighting; only Huo Xiu is good at organizing and recruiting troops." ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "That's why he can establish such a huge and strict force as the one hundred and eighth floor of Tsing Yi." ”

Dugu Yihe's eyes shot a fierce light, and said, "Zhao Daxia also knows the relationship between Huo Xiu and Tsing Yi Lou?"

Zhao Ping'an said: "It's just a coincidence." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "So Huo Xiu is really the chief scoop on the one hundred and eighth floor of Tsing Yi?"

Dugu Yihe said: "What he is hiding is really mysterious, and I only got the news recently." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "With the power of Tsing Yi Lou, if you go all out to find the whereabouts of the Great Golden Peng King, I think it shouldn't be difficult to have a result." ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "Maybe he doesn't want to find the King of the Golden Peng at all." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why is this?"

Zhao Ping'an said: "It's the same reason as the King of the Great Golden Peng avoiding them!"

His tone also became serious, and he said: "Although the wealth of the Jinpeng Dynasty is huge, but such a thing as restoring the country requires even more investment, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a bottomless pit. ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Not bad." ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "Once Huo Xiu finds the Great Golden Peng King, then even if you chase the ducks to the shelves, you must force the Great Golden Peng King to take the lead in trying to restore the glory of the Golden Peng Dynasty, even if he himself is not willing to do so." ”

Dugu Yihe said coldly: "Since you were born into the Jinpeng royal family, you should inherit the glory of the Jinpeng Dynasty." ”

His tone was cold and serious, and Lu Xiaofeng could only smile bitterly: If I were the King of the Great Golden Peng, I would probably not be willing to face this great general in the past.

Zhao Ping'an said: "We only saw that the Great Jinpeng King was unwilling to do this, but we didn't think that Huo Xiu was really willing to fully support the restoration of the Jinpeng Dynasty." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes, if the restoration of the country is in vain, then at least one-third of this huge wealth will belong to him forever." ”

Dugu Yihe suddenly said: "More than one-third." ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "More than that?"

Dugu Yihe said: "Because I am not good at financial management, so after coming to Middle-earth and looking for the little prince to no avail, I divided the wealth in my hand into two and entrusted it to the other two, and then invested in Emei alone." ”

With an indescribable sadness on his face, he added: "At that time, we got the news that the little prince may live in seclusion in Shu. ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "The Taoist chief wants to use the hidden power of the Emei faction in Shu to inquire about the whereabouts of the King of the Great Golden Peng. ”

Lone Crane acquiesces.

Zhao Ping'an said: "Since Huo Xiu didn't go all out to find the whereabouts of the Great Golden Peng King, then his thoughts are likely to be the same as what Brother Lu said. ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "It is even possible that he has found the real King of the Golden Peng, but he just covered up his news and did not inform Yan Tieshan and Dugu Dao Chief." ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "Maybe he will take a more one-and-done approach." ”

Dugu Yihe's fists clenched again, and he said sharply: "He dares!"

Of course, they all know what this one-and-done solution is.

If the King of the Golden Pengs died, there would never be anyone to ask them to help restore the kingdom.

Lu Xiaofeng's eyes had a contemplative look in his eyes again, and he said, "The Great Golden Peng King found me five days ago. ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "If the conspiracy Huo Xiu said refers to this matter, then how did he know about it?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "This is not difficult, if Huo Xiu had already learned the whereabouts of the Great Golden Peng King, then there will inevitably be his subordinates around the Great Golden Peng King, who can always monitor the Great Golden Peng King's every move." ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "With Huo Xiu's shrewdness, he will definitely do this." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "So when the Great Golden Peng King planned to come to me, he already knew about this matter, and asked Dugu Dao Leader to discuss countermeasures." ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "Maybe it's not to discuss countermeasures, but to kill people with a knife." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Oh?"

Zhao Ping'an said: "If Yan Tieshan and Daoist Dugu learn the whereabouts of the King of the Great Golden Peng, then even if Huo Xiu is not happy, Boss Yan and the head of Dugu will definitely force him to contribute to the restoration of the dynasty." ”

Dugu Yihe said coldly: "That wealth didn't belong to him in the first place." ”

Zhao Ping'an said: "So Huo Xiu never wants the Dao Chief to know any news about the Great Golden Peng King, but after all, there is no impermeable wall in the world." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "No matter how well Huo Xiu covers it up, there will always be people who accidentally leak the news." ”

He suddenly thought of that little troublemaker, Shangguan Xue'er.

Zhao Ping'an said: "So Huo Xiu is likely to think about the real once and for all." ”

Dugu Yihe said: "If Yan Tieshan and I are both dead, he can indeed sit back and relax." ”

Zhao Ping'an smiled and said: "And Huo Xiu didn't come forward in this matter, even if the Emei disciple or Huo Tianqing wanted to take revenge, they would only find trouble with Lu Xiaofeng, a nosy person." ”

Lu Xiaofeng smiled bitterly: "Why is it always me who is unlucky." ”

Zhao Ping'an smiled: "Maybe it's because you're too likable." ”

Lu Xiaofeng smiled bitterly again, and quickly changed the topic: "Then what should we do next?"

Dugu Yihe said: "Where did Lu Daxia meet the little prince, can you tell Poor Dao." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Dao Chang is going to see the King of the Golden Peng?"

Dugu Yihe nodded slowly, and his eyes showed a sad look again. Said: "No matter what, he is always the blood of the first king. Before the battle with Simon Blowing Snow, I still wanted to meet him. ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "The Taoist still has to fight with Ximen?"

Dugu Yihe said coldly: "After all, Su Shaoying died under his sword. ”

Lu Xiaofeng was speechless, everyone in the rivers and lakes knew that the "Three Heroes and Four Shows" were all orphans, and they were raised by Dugu Yihe since he was a child, although he was a master and apprentice, he was no different from father and son.

To stop a father from avenging his son, he simply can't say that.

Zhao Ping'an said: "If you plan to find the King of the Great Golden Peng, you'd better leave quickly." ”

Hua Manlou didn't speak, and then suddenly said, "I'm afraid it's too late." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Why?"

Hua Manlou said: "I already feel the sword qi. ”
