Poison Peony, this name, to be precise, this nickname is very interesting and makes people think a lot.
Peony is always noble, elegant, graceful and luxurious, but it happens to have a poisonous character.
This peony is poisonous, what does it look like?
Maybe it's the woman in front of me who is like this, no, she's a female ghost.
When I looked at this female ghost wearing a blue cheongsam, I actually thought of Bai Lanshan. Maybe Bai Lanshan would become like her after many years, ranking first among the four major families? Such a high peak?
When I think of what Bai Lanshan will look like many years later, I can't help but feel a little expectant.
At this time, Poisonous Peony hooked her fingers at us and said, "Come down, don't stand on the stairs, otherwise others will say that our Xu family doesn't treat guests well."
There was no smile on Poison Peony's face when she spoke, but there was a very charming light in her eyes that prevented you from feeling any hostility toward her.
This woman is very resourceful, but you can tell it from her eyes.
I nodded quickly and pulled Xu Longxiang down the stairs. Dahuang followed behind, just like a bodyguard.
After going down the stairs, the space does become brighter. The architectural style here is a bit like an old church. After going down the stairs, there are rows and rows of benches, but these benches are arranged in a very dark place.
on the open space.
Du Mudan looked at Xu Longxiang's body and asked: "You two, I wonder if the red rope on my brother's body can be untied?"
Of course I won't let go of Xu Longxiang easily just because of Poison Peony's few words. He is now a hostage. If we want to escape here unscathed, or even get the old cat back, Xu Longxiang is very important.
"I'm sorry, but I have to accept my order." I shook my head and said, trying not to be humble or arrogant.
Poison Peony looks extremely cool, but she is not an unkind person. She also understands our situation. Since we did not agree, she did not force it. Instead, she leaned on a bench and stretched out a pair of jade hands.
, gently flicked the old fan, and said calmly: "If you don't want to let him go, don't let him go. It's not a bad thing to have him tied up like that. Anyway, I have never seen him tied up like this.
It’s actually quite interesting.”
Xu Longxiang frowned and whispered: "You... well, could it be because I called you Poison Peony?"
Du Mudan shook her head, her face still expressionless, but her eyes were full of content. She asked softly: "You should be Lin Yang?"
I nodded and said with a smile: "It is a great honor for you to know my name."
Du Mudan shook his head and said: "There is no need to be modest. Your name is not only spread among our four major families, but even in the underground palace known as Locking Dragon, more or less people know your name. It is also interesting.
Decades ago, your grandfather shocked the underworld, and decades later, you appeared again... You, the old Lin family, can be considered to be full of capable people."
I quickly shook my head and said, "Thank you."
Du Mudan suddenly changed the topic and asked: "What are your plans for coming here today? If my information is correct, it seems that in addition to killing Ruihu, you have also solved Fengxian and Duanhe, right?"
I looked at this expressionless woman in her early thirties, with a shockingly good figure, and nodded slowly. Although I killed these evil ghosts, I didn't feel any regret at all, because they didn't deserve their punishment.
, just want to force me to death.
I was waiting for this cold woman to get angry, but her reaction was completely unexpected.
She just nodded indifferently, and then asked lightly: "Then what is the purpose of the two of you kidnapping Xu Longxiang in high spirits and running to us? Do you simply want to save the old cat, or do you want to save the old cat?
Do you want to wipe out all of our Xu family?"
I don't know why, but when this woman spoke, I vaguely felt that she seemed to be very confident and didn't care about us at all, as if she could easily kill us with a wave of her hand.
I don't know whether her arrogance comes from her strong strength or her own personality.
Du Mudan is a self-aware woman. Seeing my strange expression, she tilted her head and asked, "What? What I said made you uncomfortable?"
"It's not that I feel uncomfortable, it's just that I can't accept it." I didn't expect that this enemy would take care of my emotions so much, and said quickly: "I have killed so many people in your Xu family, and I always feel that you should be furious.
Or at least hate us, but why don't you seem to have any reaction at all?"
Poison Peony changed its posture, moved its two long legs, leaned forward slightly, and sent a stream of fragrant wind.
Her face was still expressionless, but her eyes seemed to be surging with the waves of the sea, and she said lightly: "You have this idea, maybe because you don't understand us yet. However, the fierce ghosts may be relatively good at first.
This world survives in another form... But the longer time goes by, the lonelier we become... Unable to see the sun, unable to appear in the world of heaven, we have many limitations and helplessness. In addition, we have no pursuit,
The entire underworld has actually always been lifeless..."
Having said this, I have probably understood why Xu Xueyan wants to be reincarnated so much, because life in the underworld may not be good after all.
At this time, Du Mudan continued: "Originally, the ghosts could choose to end their yin years and reincarnate directly, but we can't, because we are the ghosts of the Xu family, and we are the heads of the four major families in the underworld. We have to consider many things.
There are many things we cannot give up. For example, honor."
Having said this, Poison Peony's eyes revealed a look of helplessness and sadness.
She looked at us, then looked at Xu Longxiang, and said: "So, in fact, we are becoming more and more numb, and joy, anger, sorrow, and joy are already a luxury for us... You living people like to call this ruthlessness, but actually
That’s right.”
What Poison Mudan said made me speechless. I have never understood the inner world of a fierce ghost so deeply, and I have never had a fierce ghost willing to tell us so much.
I didn't expect this cold beauty to come up and say so many words that made my heart tremble.
I couldn't help but think of poor Xu Xueyan, the person who always wanted to calm the war between the Xu family and us. Although she was reincarnated in the end and could not witness all this with her own eyes, I really kept her wishes in my heart.
"Dahuang, I think we can just come over today and rescue the old cat, right?" I asked in a low voice. In fact, I had already made a decision in my heart. In fact, in terms of the current situation, Dahuang and I do not have an advantage, even if Dahuang
We have incredible output, but we have no confidence in destroying the entire Xu family.
Poison Mudan and the others should be sure of victory, but Poison Mudan did not bully others, nor did she mean to die with us. Her attitude was very good, and her words were very sincere.
Dahuang nodded. He is also a smart man. He knows that although we can go all out and annihilate the entire army and severely damage the Xu family, such a choice is not rational.
Du Mudan heard what I said, nodded, and said: "Since this is the case, then the negotiation between us will be simple. His second uncle, will you bring someone with you?"
Before I finished speaking, I heard footsteps in the distance.
Because it is impossible for a ghost to have footsteps, the footsteps must come from the old cat.
Old cat, you are indeed here!
Sure enough, after a while, we saw the old cat with a face of resentment and a frown on his face, slowly walking towards us. There were no shackles, restraints, or any scars on his body. It seemed that the Xu family did not embarrass him too much.
, it just restricts his freedom.
But Lao Mao's face was full of hatred. The grievances between him and the Xu family could not be explained clearly in one sentence, let alone solved in one conversation.
The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable.
After the old cat came over, he looked up and saw us, me, and Dahuang.
"It's you?!" Old Cat was extremely excited, with a bright smile on his always aloof face. The Iron Triangle is reunited again!
