Chapter 54 The beauty under the moon is fragrant, and the stranger comes in the dead of night
Zhang Fan hurriedly rushed out of the palace gate, and saw the moonlight in front of him, the shadows of the trees, and the phoenix in sight, and felt a little lonely in his heart, and then heard his stomach gurgling again, and couldn't help sighing: "I think I, Zhang Fan, the dignified True Dragon Sect Master, will also encounter the unfortunate thing that this house leak coincides with the overnight rain." Hey, the tigress really can't be messed with these days!"
"What? you say it again!" A coquettish voice suddenly sounded, and then Meng Fenghuang suddenly jumped out from behind the bushes in front of him, staring at Zhang Fan faintly, seeing that he panicked in his heart. Seeing this, Zhang Fan secretly called unlucky, and hurriedly said: "No, no" Seeing the funny and annoying hateful face of the sect leader, Meng Da Beauty was a little angry, and said coquettishly: "You scoundrel, you don't even admit it when you do something, you are simply a scum among men, the little woman is too lazy to pay attention to you, sisters, let's go!" After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran. Twenty or thirty maidens came out from behind the bushes, and followed her along the path to one side of the temple, and finally disappeared at the end of the path. Seeing this, Zhang Fan stood in a silent daze in the cold moonlight. After a while, Zhang Fan came back to his senses and said to himself: "What a woman who can't figure it out! Hey, forget it, I'd better follow her, otherwise there will really be no place to sleep." As he spoke, he hurriedly took advantage of the moonlight to chase in the direction that Meng Fenghuang had left.
After a while, Zhang Fan walked along the path to the side hall, turned a few more corners, passed through several somewhat dark corridors, and came to a chic small hall. As soon as he came to a blooming osmanthus tree in front of the temple gate, he watched the pale yellow candlelight shine through the window screen on the osmanthus tree in front of the hall, so that the newly blooming osmanthus tree showed a somewhat hazy and mottled figure, and at the same time a strong fragrance of flowers rushed into his nose, and then heard a few laughs of his daughter's family coming from the small hall. He walked to the door of the temple, hesitated a little, and thought: "This is her room after all, I will go in without saying hello, it is too rude, it's just"
"Sect Master, come in, the little woman has already prepared the food and drinks. Just when Zhang Fan hesitated, Meng Phoenix's coquettish voice came from the hall. When Zhang Fan heard this, he was overjoyed, and without hesitation, he hurriedly walked to the hall.
"Sect Master, the little girl's boudoir is not bad, right?" Zhang Fan heard the phoenix's somewhat provocative voice as soon as he entered the door. He didn't look at the situation in the room, and listened to her mention, so he looked around, and saw that there were many potted flowers and plants in the hall, tables and chairs and other furniture, and a door was opened on the right wall, and the light gauze on the door was slightly drooping, thinking that the back was her boudoir, and there were several ink paintings painted with blooming peonies, plum blossoms, mandarin ducks, or maids on the walls around him, and two red candles on the incense table in the hall were burning silently, and there was a table of sumptuous meals below, and she felt that her room was still good, so she smiled: " Hehe, of course the hall master is good, Zhang can come, it is a blessing for three lives. β
After Zhang Fan finished speaking, he raised his head and saw Meng Fenghuang walking towards him, looking at himself with intoxicated and full of ** eyes, a few peach blossoms looming on his fair face, his plump chest trembled slightly with his footsteps, and he was a little intoxicated in his heart. But he won't be stupid anymore, he only came back to his senses after a slight startle, and saw that Dream Phoenix boldly stretched out his hand and pulled himself to the table, and didn't say anything, so he smiled and sat down with her at the table.
Zhang Fan looked at the food on the table, and saw that the fried slightly yellow potato slices were accompanied by a little green onion, and a few pieces of lotus root faintly appeared in the milky white soup, and the pheasant was fried to brown, so he couldn't help pursing his lips, and his stomach was gurgling again. Meng Fenghuang saw that this idiot actually looked at the food and didn't move, and said with a smile: "My Great Sect Master, eat quickly, you won't be worried that I will give you laxatives in the meal, right?" Zhang Fan smiled slightly: "How could it be, I just didn't expect you to be so ingenious." β
"Hehe, it turns out that the sect leader also likes to say beautiful things. When Meng Fenghuang heard this, he laughed and said. Zhang Fan had already cultivated a not thin face at this time, and he only smiled reluctantly at her words, and said, "Hehe, you invited me to dinner, of course you made this meal." I'm really hungry, so let's eat. Then the two of them began to eat.
Meng Fenghuang was eating slowly, while watching the handsome sect leader on the other side, seeing him like a starving ghost reincarnated, bowing his head and mouthing the food, ignoring himself, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart, so he watched him eat blankly.
Zhang Fan put three bowls of rice into his stomach, felt that it was almost over, and only then did he feel that someone was watching him, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Meng Fenghuang holding the rice, while looking at himself blankly, and said embarrassedly: "I only ate a little in the morning today, and I didn't eat in the afternoon, so I'm a little hungry, don't mind." When Meng Fenghuang heard this, she smiled and said, "How could it be?" The little girl seemed to be a little nervous when she saw the sect leader eating, and it was just a little strange. When Zhang Fan heard this, he shouted in his heart: "What's the matter? Beauty, now that I'm the sect leader, can you not tease me like this? I can't stand it." He really didn't dare to talk to the beautiful woman, so he had to continue to eat slowly. Meng Fenghuang said coquettishly: "Sect Master, don't be like this, if you let the brothers and sisters in the sect see the appearance of the sect leader, you will say that I am abusing children again." When Zhang Fan heard this, he was very helpless, so he had to say to him: "Phoenix Hall Master, I have served you, eat quickly, otherwise I will trouble the cook again after a while." Meng Fenghuang smiled and said, "Ouch, the sect leader is finally willing to speak." Since the sect leader commanded, how dare the little woman disobey, hehe. Then she didn't joke with Zhang Fan and started eating.
After the meal, Meng Fenghuang stood up gently, stretched his waist, and said to Zhang Fan who was on the side: "Sect Master, there is a chrysanthemum in the little woman's backyard that is in full bloom, do you want to go and see it together?" Then the two of them went out the back door and into the back garden.
The night under the bright moon is unusually quiet, only a few insects chirp occasionally, the bright moonlight pours down, shining on the flowers and trees, leaving a sparse shadow on the grass, and the faint fragrance of chrysanthemums overflows from the garden, wafting in the wide back garden, making the night garden very charming.
Meng Fenghuang and Zhang Fan walked slowly along the bluestone path to the flowers, and saw a small pavilion in front of them, Meng Fenghuang said softly: "Master, there is a pavilion over there, the surrounding scenery is not bad, let's go there and sit down." Zhang Fan saw that the small pavilion was standing among the flowers, and he could enjoy the surrounding moonlight, and he was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Okay." Then the two walked briskly to the pavilion.
Zhang Fan entered the pavilion and sat down next to him as soon as he chose a place against the pillar, and when Meng Fenghuang saw this, he sat down next to him. Zhang Fan found that Meng Fenghuang actually sat down next to him, and a few ripples flashed in his heart, so he reached out and pulled her gently, letting the beauty lean in his arms. Meng Fenghuang's face was slightly hot, his heart was shy and anxious, he just wanted to get close to the sect leader and talk, but he didn't expect the sect leader to directly hold himself in his arms. She didn't struggle, she just closed her eyes slightly, silently feeling Zhang Fan's warm chest, waiting for the sect leader's tenderness.
After a while, Zhang Fan saw that the phoenix was still lying in his arms like a little lazy cat, and he didn't speak, and he didn't know what to do, so he had to look at the moonlight in a daze.
The two of them were full of confusion, not knowing what to do, and gradually felt sleepy.
The surroundings of the pavilion were quiet, and I don't know how long it took, the moonlight sprinkled in at will, shining on Meng Phoenix's white face. She couldn't help but feel a little chill on her body, so she slowly opened her eyes, found that the moonlight had already shone into the pavilion, and knew that she had fallen asleep unconsciously in the arms of the sect leader, and she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed in her heart, and at the same time a little sweet. She raised her head, looked at the sect leader, and found that he had fallen asleep soundly, and thought to herself: "This lazy sect leader, not only did he scream when he fell asleep, but he also fell asleep, which is really careless." β
Meng Fenghuang saw that it was already very late at night, and wanted to wake up the sect leader and go back to rest, so he smiled mischievously, tremblingly stretched out his jade hand and slowly stroked the sect leader's handsome face, seeing that he didn't wake up, he had an idea, raised his little hand, and patted him lightly on the face, seeing that he was still asleep like a dead pig, he was angry, so he took off a strand of hair and gently teased Zhang Fan's ear, and at the same time she showed a narrow smile on her face.
"Hmm" Zhang Fan felt a little uncomfortable in his ears, and couldn't help but let out a soft snort in his throat, then turned his head and continued to sleep. Seeing this, Meng Fenghuang really couldn't do it, so she shook the sect leader who had fallen asleep with her hand, and called softly: "Sect leader, sect leader, wake up quickly" Before she finished speaking, she suddenly found a black shadow in front of her rushing towards them, and she was immediately stunned and speechless.
Zhang Fan was half asleep and half awake, and suddenly heard Meng Phoenix's coquettish call, and then woke up, but he felt as if there was a strong energy around him. He was horrified in his heart, and suddenly picked up Meng Phoenix and jumped to the side, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the wooden fence where he was sleeping just now turned into ashes under a sword qi and scattered in all directions. He didn't have time to think about it, he immediately pulled Meng Fenghuang down behind him, and at the same time quickly pulled out the black sword on his back, looked ahead, and saw a black-clothed warrior holding a sword to kill him. Zhang Fan was extremely angry in his heart, and he didn't want to think about it, so he immediately moved to the sword, and suddenly made a move-Dragon Teng Yuye and slashed towards the black-clothed warrior. Immediately, the two sword qi in the small pavilion, one purple and one black, collided together, and the purple sword qi was like a divine dragon soaring dance, and the black sword qi was divided into two at once with an incomparably strong and domineering momentum, and then draped on the body of the black-clothed warrior, making a clear sound of "pop", and then the black-clothed warrior's black robe suddenly exploded into pieces, revealing a face as white as a dead corpse. Finally, a large mouthful of blood shot out of the mouth of the corpse-faced warrior, splashing on the ground like lightning, and a pungent fishy stench permeated the small pavilion.
Seeing that the strange corpse-faced martial artist was injured, Zhang Fan didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately sent out a fierce sword aura at him again. The corpse cultivator was killed and injured by Zhang Fan just now, and before he could recover from his recovery, he saw a deadly sword qi shooting towards him, and quickly dodged. The bright purple sword qi didn't slash at the corpse-faced warrior's chest, but it passed through his left arm and shot forward.
"Ahh He turned his head and said angrily: "Little thief, you are looking for death!"
When Zhang Fan heard this, he shouted: "You filthy thief, how dare you sneak attack your uncle?
The corpse-faced warrior was seriously injured one after another, and when he saw Zhang Fan suddenly killing with a sword, he couldn't react, and saw the purple shadow in the sky falling on his thin body like lightning. He was covered in blood, shredded flesh scattered, and slowly lost consciousness.
As soon as Zhang Fan killed the thief who attacked him, he suddenly heard the cry of Meng Phoenix. He raised his eyes and saw a big man flying towards the pavilion while holding Meng Phoenix, so he roared angrily: "The little early innate martial artist wants to escape, you think so beautiful!"
When the big man saw a white shadow attacking him, he was terrified, and immediately landed next to a tree, picked up a bright knife and put it on Meng Phoenix's white neck, and shouted: "Boy, don't come here, otherwise Lao Tzu will give you a bloodstained head!"
Zhang Fan just chased two feet away from Dahan, and when he saw Dahan stopping, Nameng Phoenix threatened him, and his body hesitated slightly, then he fell to the ground, and said angrily: "Dog thief, you are really naΓ―ve!"
When the big man heard this, he was even more frightened in his heart, and said, "Boy, you dare! You don't want a beauty anymore?"
When Zhang Fan heard this, he was unhappy, and secretly calculated to himself, and then said with a cruel smile: "Dog thief, the beauty Lao Tzu has it, not to mention an ugly woman." β
The big man didn't believe it, and sneered: "Little thief, you want to cover it up in front of Lao Tzu, and you're a little tender" But before he finished speaking, he saw Zhang Fan throwing a handful of gray smoke at him, and then he felt stuffy in his chest, his hand slipped, and the big knife fell to the ground with a "clang", and the person lost consciousness.
Zhang Fan saw that the big man was already unconscious, so he quickly came to Meng Fenghuang's side, kicked the big man away, and picked up Meng Fenghuang, who was stunned by the smoke. As soon as he stood up, he wanted to hurry up to save Meng Phoenix, but he saw several laurel trees in the distance swaying slightly, and several black-clothed people fled around like mice, so he shouted: "Thief, Hugh go!" As he spoke, he hugged Meng Phoenix and chased after the thief with his sword.
Zhang Fan walked without a trace, quickly approaching a black-clothed warrior, and without thinking about it, he slashed at him with a sword. With a scream of "ahh Zhang Fan saw that the warrior was dead, so he didn't stop, and continued to want others to chase him. After a while, a short and mournful cry sounded from the back garden of the small hall.
At the same time, not far from the small hall, several True Dragon Sect disciples heard a miserable scream coming from the east and immediately rushed to this side.
It didn't take Zhang Fan long to kill or capture, and deal with all the warriors who came to sneak attack tonight. Then he carried Meng Fenghuang to a meadow, quickly took out a jade bottle, poured out an antidote pill and put it in her mouth, fed her some water, and waited silently beside her. After a while, Meng Fenghuang felt that she had regained consciousness, and slowly opened her eyes, and saw that the sect leader was staring at her, her pretty face was flushed, and she was very embarrassed, but she recalled her moment before she fell into a coma, and she was unhappy, and asked angrily: "Dead Zhang Fan, you actually say that I am an ugly woman?" Zhang Fan saw her wake up, his heart was happy, and he smiled: "Since the sister has woken up, don't shout loudly, I think your neck is not okay, hehe" She was very sad when she heard this, and cried: "You negative thief, not a person, you" Seeing Zhang Fan's smile, her heart was full of grievances, and she didn't want to say any more, so she threw herself into his arms and cried.
"Master!" a shout came from afar. Zhang Fan turned around and saw Situ Shang carrying an unconscious man running towards him. Zhang Fan smiled: "Old man, you're here!"
Meng Fenghuang suddenly heard the voice of the two sect masters, and was ashamed in his heart, immediately stopped crying, got up from Zhang Fan's arms at once, didn't look at the sect leader, turned around and ran into the distance.
At this time, Situ Shang came to Zhang Fan's side, saw Meng Fenghuang running away, was a little embarrassed, and said apologetically: "Sect Master, the old man has disturbed you." Zhang Fan smiled: "Hehe, it's okay." Old man, you're not slow. Situ Shang was stunned when he heard this, and said with a wry smile: "Sect Master, old man, I didn't expect this to happen tonight." As soon as I heard the sound of fighting on your side, I hurried over, but I was still a step too late and didn't help the sect leader. The subordinates are derelict in their duties. When Zhang Fan heard this, he didn't care, and said with a smile: "Old man, even if you come over, you can't help me too much." I just blew dinner tonight, and came to the courtyard to admire the moon, maybe I was tired during the day today, and I fell asleep in the pavilion, if it wasn't for the Lord of the Temple by her side, she immediately reminded me, maybe I really have to worry about my life tonight. When the old man heard this, he also sighed and said, "Yes, I just looked at the black-clothed people killed by the sect leader, and I found that they have a great background. I was surprised that there was a eunuch who came to assassinate the sect leader tonight. Zhang Fan was shocked when he heard this, and said: "What, eunuch? Isn't that a royal servant?" Situ Shang smiled helplessly: "Yes, but there is only one eunuch, and he was chopped into meat sauce by you, if it weren't for the old man, I really wouldn't be able to see it." The others are probably sent to assassinate you by people you offend or resent you, but luckily these people are not very high-level. β
When Zhang Fan heard this, he smiled bitterly: "Old man, you really don't have a backache when you stand and talk, but I met two innate masters tonight." Although my cultivation is profound, I didn't feel the innate master approaching me before. Old Man Situ smiled: "When the sect leader breaks through the innate one, he will know the innate mysteries, hehe." β
"Sect Master, Hall Master, are you all right?" At this time, Wu Laowu's voice came from behind the bushes, and then he came to Zhang Fan and the others. Zhang Fan smiled and said: "Old Five, why are you here?" When Wang Lao Wu heard this, he knelt down in panic and almost cried: "Sect Master, it's too late for your subordinates, and your subordinates really don't know that someone wants to kill you." Seeing this, Zhang Fan smiled and said: "Old Five, this is not like you, this is not a formal occasion, hurry up." When Wang Lao Wu heard this, his heart was warm, and he hurriedly thanked: "Thank you for forgiving the sect leader, it's too late." Seeing this, Zhang Fan smiled helplessly and didn't say anything.
Wang Lao Wu saw that Situ Shang was carrying a man in black, and hurriedly asked: "Situ Hall Master, is this the thief you captured?" Situ Shang heard this, and smiled embarrassedly: "Hehe, although this thief was brought by me, he let the sect leader faint, and the old man just stained a little bit of the sect leader's light, hehe." Zhang Fan saw that several more people were coming, and he didn't want to make tonight's events known, so he smiled and said, "Tonight's events are a little unexpected to me." I just killed a little too much, but this brute is the only one left. Everyone is tired tonight, so let's stay for tomorrow and interrogate them, and you can send a few people to clean up the corpses in the courtyard, and then go back to sleep. When Wang Lao Wu heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Yes, sect leader, my subordinates will do it." After he finished speaking, he turned around to leave, Zhang Fan said loudly: "Don't be busy, since the thieves can come in so easily, it is estimated that our crossbowmen did not notice it, you can see if there are any disciples who have lost, if there is a loss, we must collect their bodies well, and compensate their families with some silver taels." When Wang Lao Wu heard this, he replied: "You don't have to worry about this, your subordinates will deal with it." Sect Master, hurry up and rest. Zhang Fan nodded when he heard this, and then waved his hand to signal that he could leave. Situ Shang saw Wang Lao Wu leaving, and said to Zhang Fan in a loud voice: "Sect Master, you can go and rest, and your subordinates will lead this barbarian to torture first, right?" Seeing this, Zhang Fan smiled and said: "Old man, this guy has been drugged, and if you leave like this, you can't ask anything if you kill him, this is the antidote, you can take it." As he spoke, he took out a jade bottle and handed it to Situ Shang. When Situ Shang heard this, he hurriedly took the jade bottle and said, "Then the subordinate will go." Zhang Fan nodded when he heard this, and Situ Shang turned around and walked away when he saw this.
Zhang Fan saw that several servants had arrived, so he commanded: "You guys hurry up and dispose of the corpses in the courtyard and go back to sleep." When they heard this, they replied, "Yes, Master." Then they went to work.
Zhang Fan looked at the jade disk-like moon in the sky that was already hanging above his head, and at the same time felt that the cold air around him was heavier, he sighed secretly, and then reluctantly carried the blood-stained sword and walked slowly towards the hall.
