After an unknown amount of time, Huamanlou woke up. He hurriedly started working and called Li Yunfei and Lu Xiaofeng up.
Huamanlou wiped it everywhere and said hurriedly: "This is my room in Yuxiu Villa. Why are we here?"
Li Yunfei and the others got out of bed, and Lu Xiaofeng walked to the table and said, "There is a lot to eat here."
Li Yunfei also pretended not to know anything and said, "Yes, there is a tank of water over there."
Hua Manlou was very anxious after hearing about it and hurriedly looked for an exit, but there were steel plates everywhere, so it was impossible to find an exit. Just when Hua Manlou was anxious, Lu Xiaofeng said according to the script: "Stop looking, there are everywhere here."
It’s covered with steel plates and you can’t get out.”
Hua Manlou said anxiously: "What's going on? Who put us under house arrest? How is my father? I want to get out."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Don't be anxious. Fortunately, I have a Fire Cloud Thunderbolt from Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall. I hope they didn't put iron plates on the roof."
The roof was blown open, and several people flew out. They rushed to the Peach Blossom Castle of the Hua family. The servant who was stunned by the Hua Manlou happened to be there.
Hua Manlou jumped up and caught the servant, asking, "Tell me, why are you plotting against me?"
Just when the servant was hesitating and silent, a voice made Hua Manlou let go of his hand. "Lou'er, let him go. I asked him to do this," Hua Ruling said.
Hua Manlou asked in surprise: "Dad, why did you do this?"
Hua Ruling sighed and said, "I received a letter some time ago." As she spoke, she took out a piece of paper.
Lu Xiaofeng asked: "What do these bloody footprints mean?"
Hua Manlou was stunned for a moment and said: "This is the sign of the iron-shoe robber when he commits a crime."
Lu Xiaofeng asked in surprise: "Isn't that iron-shoe thief already killed by your uncle?"
Hua Ruling said: "Yes, the Iron Shoe Thief was killed by me, but no one has seen the Iron Shoe Thief's true face in his life. It is still unknown whether the person who died was the Iron Shoe Thief. Lou'er, you
Several years of speculation was correct."
Li Yunfei said coldly: "This person is really brave if he dares to choose this day to seek revenge." Li Yunfei and Lu Xiaofeng looked at each other, and they smiled at each other. They both knew that it was okay to go out of their way to protect a friend without telling a lie.
Nothing.
Hua Ruling sighed and said: "I think Hua Ruling has lived an upright life and is worthy of heaven and earth. There is nothing to be afraid of. But when you get older, you have more worries. Lou'er, the one I can't worry about the most in my life is you!"
Hua Manlou said anxiously: "That's why Dad, you're going to lock me up, but when we're facing a powerful enemy, how can I back down from the battle?"
Hua Ruling said: "Dad has a way to deal with him. He can't beat me. Don't worry."
Huamanlou said: "I am no longer a child, so let him come and settle this grudge."
Hua Ruling said: "Lu Xiaofeng, Li Yunfei, you are Lou'er's best friends. This time I have brought trouble to you. I had no choice but to do this. Please look at Lou'er's face and forgive my uncle."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Uncle, you don't have to be polite." Li Yunfei also cupped his hands and said: "Uncle, you are too polite, you don't dare, you don't dare."
The three of them walked out. At this time, an official came over and asked about where he was staying. Lu Xiaofeng greeted him and shouted: "Jin Jiuling. Why are you here too?"
Jin Jiuling said: "If you can come, why can't I come?"
Hua Manlou said with a smile: "It turns out that the golden boss from the Six Gates came here in great numbers. I was too busy to entertain and didn't give enough support, so please don't be offended."
Li Yunfei looked at this embroidery thief who was going to handle dozens of major cases. This man was so upright and upright that people felt good about him. No wonder Lu Xiaofeng considered him a friend.
Lu Xiaofeng introduced each other again: "This is my good friend Li Yunfei, and this is the chief arrester of the Six Doors, Jin Jiuling."
After shivering with each other for a while, Jin Jiuling went to rest, and Huamanlou said: "Come here, take Jin Baotou to Ziwei Pavilion to check in."
Jin Jiuling said: "Everyone, see you later." Then he followed the servant and walked out.
The three of them walked to Huamanlou's room together. Huamanlou sighed and said, "Brother Lu, Brother Li, listen to me." After saying that, he stood up and sighed. That was the first time that Li Yunfei felt Huamanlou.
Manlou had an unsolvable knot in her heart. Huamanlou slowly revealed the sad events of that year.
"That was fifteen years ago. I was playing at home and wanted to find my dad. When I arrived at home, I found that the secret room in the house had been opened. I went in secretly and found that my dad was talking to a guy with a kid.
There was a fight between the masked men. That man was no match for my father, so he was cut in the leg with a sword. He had no choice but to grab me to threaten my father. My father was afraid that I would be hurt by the iron-shoe thief, so he had no choice but to let the iron-shoe thief go.
gone."
Hua Manlou sighed and added: "I was kidnapped by the Iron Shoe robber and brought to the bank of Meng River. I tore the Iron Shoe's face, and he threw me to the side of the tree."
Li Yunfei asked: "But why did he blind you?"
Hua Manlou said: "I was knocked unconscious at the time, but when I woke up later, the iron shoe actually showed me his face. He told me that his face was the last thing I saw. Then he took me
His eyes were scratched and he was blinded. He said he would come back." Hua Manlou said very calmly, but Li Yunfei knew that there was still this shadow in his heart.
Perhaps recalling these bad memories, Hua Manlou looked a little tired, and then said: "Later, my father contacted the five masters and killed the Iron Shoe Thief together. But I always believed that the Iron Shoe Thief was still alive."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "This is just your guess. The Iron Shoe Thief should be dead!"
Huamanlou said: "No, I have evidence. My feeling tells me that the Iron Shoe Thief has been haunting Taohua Castle these years, and it is near the underground secret room."
Li Yunfei asked: "Have you ever been to that underground secret passage?"
Huamanlou said: "Since the accident, my father has renovated the secret room. Now no one except my father knows where the entrance to the secret room is! It's just that in recent years, I don't feel like a thief with iron shoes."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "Okay! Since you can't feel him anymore, maybe he will leave if you can't find him."
Hua Manlou added: "This makes me even more worried. The iron-shoe thief's arrival this time must come with bad intentions, and there may be a big conspiracy involved."
Li Yunfei said: "Don't worry, the arrival of the Iron Shoe Thief is just an opportunity. We will definitely make him pay with blood."
Huamanlou said: "If he's not rough, I won't let him go easily this time."
Li Yunfei interjected: "Yes, with so many masters coming this time, we will definitely eliminate the iron shoe thieves."
Hua Ruling celebrated her birthday and built a Ziwei Pavilion to receive friends and guests. The Hua family held a banquet for three days to celebrate the event.
Hua Ruling stepped forward and said: "Thank you all for coming. If it was just Hua's birthday, Hua would never dare to disturb your relatives and friends. Tonight is the Menghe Lantern Festival, and the lanterns will be set off for seven days and seven nights. In addition to the feast, everyone
Besides, you can also enjoy the lanterns and flowers upstairs. Wouldn’t it be nice?”
There was laughter and laughter in the hall at the banquet, but they had no idea that many people would die later.
Li Yunfei and Lu Xiaofeng were the chairmen, and there was a table full of good wine and good food. While these people were drinking happily, a blond and blue-eyed foreigner danced in and said in his awkward Chinese: "Dear guests, I am here to
Emil, on the order of the King of Hanhai Kingdom, I am here to congratulate Hua Daxia on his sixtieth birthday. I have prepared a little trick to entertain everyone."
After that, many large barrels rolled in, and a child came out of each barrel. These children came out with gifts, including gold, silver, jewelry, and gold agate.
Just as everyone was applauding, a woman wearing a veil came in. She danced a different kind of dance. It was also very beautiful.
Everyone was very happy and started drinking together again. Lu Xiaofeng also drank one cup after another. At the whole wine table, only Li Yunfei and Hua Manlou did not drink.
Li Yunfei didn't drink because he knew the wine was poisonous. But Lu Xiaofeng drank one cup after another.
Lu Xiaofeng picked up the wine glass and said to Li Yunfei: "Here, drink this glass of wine."
Li Yunfei bowed his hands and said: "I don't want to drink, I don't feel well."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "What's the matter? This beauty is here with a crowd of friends, wine in the glass, and meat on the plate. It's a proud moment in life, why aren't you happy?"
Li Yunfei stopped him and said secretly: "This wine is wrong, didn't you drink it?"
Lu Xiaofeng asked: "What's wrong? This wine is fragrant and is a rare wine from the Western Regions. What's wrong with you?"
Hua Manlou interrupted: "Didn't you find that this wine is too fragrant? It also has the taste of Western spices."
Lu Xiaofeng picked up the wine and said, "Is there any? I can only smell the aroma of wine. Don't be too nervous. We are all here. The iron-shoe thief wouldn't dare to come even if he was brave enough."
Huamanlou said: "You'd better drink slowly, I'm going back to the room first." After saying this, he went back to the room.
Li Yunfei pulled Lu Xiaofeng up and said, "Come out with me. I have something to tell you."
Lu Xiaofeng and Li Yunfei walked out. Li Yunfei asked: "Lu Xiaofeng, are we friends?"
Lu Xiaofeng said: "Yes, we are close friends."
Li Yunfei said: "Then do you believe my words?"
Lu Xiaofeng asked in confusion: "What did you say?"
Li Yunfei said: "Today, the wine you drank was poisonous. I have seen this kind of poison. It is difficult to detect when mixed with wine. But I have heard of this kind of poison. It seems to be called Chixiahong, so I know that this kind of poison is poisonous."
The performance is like this, with the flavor of Western spices. I will never mistake it. The feeling of Hua Man Lou is correct."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "How is this possible? The Hua family is heavily guarded. How could there be poison in the wine?"
Li Yunfei said: "I don't know about this. When you go back, don't make people suspicious. I'll go back to the room first. You can go back alone. If you ask, just say I'm not feeling well." After saying that, Li Yunfei walked towards the room.
