Chapter 40: The Enemy Meets
No matter how disobedient the daughter is, it is also a piece of meat in the mother's heart, and of course the old lady took in the mother and son. It's a pity that not long after, Bai Feiyu's mother finally died due to a long-term illness and left the west.
Witnessing the death of her daughter, Mrs. Yuwen was grief-stricken, and since then she has regarded Bai Feiyu as a famous pearl in her palm, and has hired a famous teacher to teach her grandson at any cost.
Bai Feiyu himself is also very competitive, he has been extremely smart since he was a child, he must be able to learn, and he has already shown his outstanding literary brilliance at a young age.
Bai Feiyu's mother has a distant uncle, gave birth to a son, lazy, gambling by nature, his father did not dare to be too presumptuous when he was alive, and when his father died, he stuffed all the family wealth in the eyes of the dice. His wife cried many times, to no avail, and finally committed suicide by hanging herself in despair, leaving behind a daughter, Yuwen Huizhu.
Yuwen Huizhu's father saw his wife's tragic death and suddenly woke up, but it was too late, he gave up on himself, entrusted Yuwen Huizhu to his aunt, and since then he has been away from the world, and he doesn't know where to go.
Old Mrs. Yuwen hated this niece who was forced in, and scolded at every turn. Unexpectedly, when Yuwen Huizhu grew to the age of fifteen, she was already a flower and moon, and she was glamorous.
Yuwen Huizhu is quiet by nature, she knows that she is not favored by her aunt and grandmother, and she usually behaves in a proper manner, never going out of the boudoir for half a step, so that when she reaches the age of marriage, no one knows that there is a daughter in the Yuwen family, and no one comes to propose.
Bai Feiyu and Yuwen Huizhu grew up together since childhood, and they are the only young men that Yuwen Huizhu can come into contact with.
Mrs. Yuwen originally did not agree to this marriage, and she couldn't stand her grandson's repeated begging, thinking of her daughter's death, for fear that the tragedy would happen again, so she had no choice but to hold a marriage for the two.
Soon after marriage, Yuwen Huizhu gave birth to a daughter. The husband and wife named their daughter Bai Lu and exemplified the "Book of Songs": The leaves are pale, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Iraqi people are on the water side!
Soon after Bai Lu was born, Bai Feiyu bid farewell to his wife and daughter, and went to Beijing to take the exam. After a written test, he turned out to be a first-class jinshi in high school, and he was ranked first in the hall and palace examination.
The emperor saw that Bai Feiyu was a handsome young man and a talented man, and wanted to recruit him as a concubine, but Bai Feiyu loved his wife deeply and politely declined.
Unexpectedly, since Princess Luanyi secretly met Bai Feiyu, she thought about it day and night, and couldn't sleep, so she proposed to be willing to be young and marry the Bai family.
The emperor was helpless, and ordered Bai Feiyu and his daughter to marry by order.
This may be a good thing for others to ask for, but for Bai Feiyu, it is a burden of conscience. After marriage, Bai Feiyu often missed his wife and daughter, so much so that he couldn't think about tea and dinner, and couldn't sleep at night.
Princess Luanyi saw that her husband was not a person who thought differently and respected her very much, so she begged her father to send someone to pick up her husband's family to Beijing for a reunion.
The emperor couldn't resist his daughter, so he had to nod and agree.
As the saying goes: If one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven. Bai Feiyu only thought that the whole family could live a happy life of affection and love from now on, but two months later, the bad news came, and the grandmother, wife, and daughter were robbed by bandits when they passed through the barren mountains of the Qinling Mountains, and the whole family died tragically.
Princess Luanyi was furious and ordered all the people who received her relatives to be beheaded.
Although Bai Feiyu was grief-stricken, with his intelligence, how could he not guess the strange death of his family?
After many secret investigations, Bai Feiyu learned that the person who was ordered to lead the team to take his family into Beijing that day was a red tasseled guard named Gu Ziwu.
Of course, Bai Feiyu, the background of the red tasseled guard, knew that it must be that the emperor couldn't tolerate the daughter of the princess to be small, so he secretly sent someone to get rid of the son-in-law's family, who was regarded as a burden in his eyes.
After all, Bai Feiyu was reluctant to give up the glory and wealth in front of him, thinking about his future, so he closed his eyes and became a peace horse.
"I'm sorry for your mother and daughter, and I'm sorry for my grandmother's nurturing grace!" Bai Feiyu was already beating his chest and tears when he said this.
Listening to his words and looking at his color, Xue Nianci also understood at this time that what Bai Feiyu said was definitely not a lie, but her mother's fate was so much, Xue Nianci said "Ahh
Looking at the person in front of him who should be his father, Xue Nianci's heart was full of hatred, and the bitter thoughts about his father in the past were all replaced by regret for his mother at this moment.
"I hate you!" Xue Nianci screamed and ran away, letting Hong Tai and Bai Feiyu call loudly, and in the blink of an eye, they were gone.
"Lu'er!" Bai Feiyu stood by the river, covering his chest with his hands, and his heart hurt so much that he bent down.
Shen Rong hurriedly stepped forward to support the horse.
Hong Tai watched coldly, looking down on Bai Feiyu's actions from the bottom of his heart, but seeing that the other party had already regretted it, he didn't say anything to scold.
After a long time, Hong Tai's anger in his heart decreased slightly, and he said: "Don't be sad, although Nianci left, she is your daughter after all, and when she calms down, she will come back to you." ”
Hearing that Hong Tai changed his name to him, Bai Feiyu raised his head to meet the other party's sharp gaze, and asked sadly, "Why doesn't the old brother blame me?"
Hong Tai snorted, turned his face to look at Jiang Mian and said, "A negative person like you, if I had met you, I would have cut you off with a knife." It's just that now I want to do this, but I can't explain it to Nianci. ”
Shen Rong helped Bai Feiyu and comforted: "Don't be sad, Master Ma, Miss was confused for a while, so she didn't recognize you." After speaking, looking at the direction of Xue Nianci's departure, there was an inexplicable feeling of loss in my heart.
When both of them were preoccupied, the wind suddenly broke loudly.
Before Shen Rong could react, he had already been pushed down under a boulder on the riverbank by Hong Tai and Bai Feiyu together.
The sound of "clanging" suddenly started, and Shen Rong looked at it, and the Hongtai golden knife danced into a bright sun, and he didn't know how many dark arrows shot out of the forest flew away.
It was enough to have a cup of tea, and the thief's arrow was finally released. With a burst of "hahaha" laughter, a strange man with long arms and big hands and a pimple on his face walked out of the forest, and the thieves he brought emerged one after another, trapping the three of Hongtai to death by the river in a half-moon shape.
The thief who came was very tall, but his hands were drooping down but still as strange as if they were about to touch the ground, and his ten fingers flashed black, and he was wearing a pair of iron claws.
"Is it you?" Bai Feiyu, who had just raised his head, recognized at a glance that the person was the enemy who killed his wife: Gu Ziwu, the iron-clawed demon.
Gu Ziwu glanced at Bai Feiyu, who had just climbed up from under the stone, and shouted arrogantly: "The surname Bai, it is your luck that you were not stabbed to death by your daughter, but you still can't escape Lao Tzu's iron claws." ”
Seeing the enemy, Bai Feiyu's eyes flashed red. Once the hatred that had been forgiven for so many years broke out, it was really heart-shattering, and he roared at Gu Ziwu and said: "Gu Ziwu, you cold-blooded killer, one day I, Bai Feiyu, will file your bones and scatter ashes to comfort the soul of my deceased wife in the sky!"
Gu Ziwu laughed when he heard this: "Since the master of the horse said so, the person surnamed Gu dares to disobey his fate? ”
Gu Ziwu originally thought that with Qi Gui to respond, killing people and taking the roster was just a trivial matter, so he didn't go out in person. Unexpectedly, things suddenly changed, not only did he kill Hong Tai halfway, but a mysterious Xue Nianci sprang out of the secret room unbelievably, causing a thing that seemed very simple to him to become confusing.
Fortunately, Xue Nianci was deceived by him with rhetoric, but Gu Ziwu had already added twelve points of caution, followed him, and suddenly released a dark arrow when Hong Tai and the three were distracted by Xue Nianci's departure.
Although the current situation has the absolute upper hand, Gu Ziwu is still worried about Xue Nianci in his heart, in order to prevent a long night dream, as soon as he finished speaking, he waved his claws and pounced on Bai Feiyu, but was slashed back by Hong Tai from the side.
"I almost forgot about you old horseman!" Gu Ziwu's eyes flashed with a cold light, staring at Hong Tai and sneering: "You have been hit by a poisoned arrow in your leg, and you will die of poison in less than an hour, and you dare to be strong here." ”
Bai Feiyu and Shen Rong were all startled when they heard this, only to find that Hong Tai had been hit by an arrow in his left leg, but because it was dark and the situation was extremely grim, neither of them could notice it for a while.
Hong Tai didn't care about this, and sneered at each other: "The iron claw demon Gu Ziwu, the underworld giant that everyone talks about on the rivers and lakes, actually wants to use this kind of indiscriminate tricks against the enemy, if it is not a last resort, Hong really disdains to look at you more!"
"Really?" Gu Ziwu's eyes shot with anger, and he waved his claws and pounced: "I see why you don't look at Lao Tzu?"
Although Hong Tai was hit by an arrow in the leg and had difficulty moving, he did not show weakness, stood still, carried the knife like the wind, and scolded while facing the enemy: "You Hong Ye I only saw you as a piece of shit!"
Gu Ziwu was selected into the Red Silk Guard Organization, with superb skills, coming and going like the wind in his actions, and a pair of ghost claws like a ghost phantom, drawing a black silk around Hong Tai's body. Even if Hong Tai was not injured, he thought that he would not be able to defeat Gu Ziwu, not to mention that after a long time, the poisonous gas would go up, and he would die.
Since he couldn't be spared, Hong Tai also gave up everything and scolded the swear words that he usually didn't bother to say.
Gu Ziwu obviously didn't want to waste more time on Hong Tai, but he was also unwilling to fight to the death with this opponent who seemed to him to have stepped into the ghost gate with one foot, and with a hello, Qi Gui and the masked leader who had appeared in the Qin Mansion before rushed out together, and it turned out to be three enemies and one.
Bai Feiyu saw that the masked leader had gauze bandaged on his head, and he was still so brave, he followed the murder again, and shouted anxiously: "Stop, what you want is the head surnamed Bai, it has nothing to do with others, don't kill innocents indiscriminately." ”
But where would the three thieves listen to Bai Feiyu's words?
"Qi Gui!" Bai Feiyu could only beg Qi Gui at this time: "I treated you well in the past, you let Hong Tai and Shen Rong leave, and I will let you go." ”
"Master Horse!" Qi Gui put away his knife and jumped aside, looked at Bai Feiyu and said: "I wanted to let Master Ma have a way out, but Master Ma didn't know the general situation. Old Man Hong is strong in martial arts, and we have no choice but to do this. ”
"Dog thief!" Bai Feiyu couldn't help but scold: "Hong Tai is just a civilian, I believe he will not pose a threat to you." Qi Gui, if you still remember the little affection between the master and servant in the past, let him and Shen Rong go. At the end, he added, "I'm begging you!"
