The bamboo sign is emerald green, the neck is slender and white, and the dark red blood blends the two together.
Shangguan Feiyan died. After hearing that Huo Tianqing was dead, she stabbed her own throat with the bamboo sign left by Huo Tianqing without any hesitation.
Huo Tianqing wore this bamboo sign with him for half his life.
Sometimes people are very strange. They can kill others for wealth, but they can completely ignore their own lives for a relationship that they know no longer exists.
Liu Yuhen is such a person, and Shangguan Feiyan is also such a person.
Su Yang and Lu Xiaofeng buried her. During the process of burying her, Shangguan Xueer kept crying. If she had not accidentally found the body of Princess Danfeng, Shangguan Feiyan might not have been exposed and would not have committed suicide. She
I always feel sorry for this sister. Although Shangguan Feiyan has never been particularly kind to her, she has not done any harm to her.
"She is my biological sister after all." Shangguan Xueer's eyes were as red as peaches.
Lu Xiaofeng patted her head apologetically and asked, "So you must think about it in detail. Have any outsiders been here during this time, such as Huo Tianqing?"
"Someone has been here. Several groups of people wanted to sneak in. Fortunately, Liu Yuhen's skills are good, and the one you left behind, Zhu Ting, looks fat and doesn't seem to have much ability, but he is really powerful.
Not only is Liu Yuhen's martial arts inferior to Liu Yuhen's, he also transformed the entire palace." Shangguan Xueer said: "So, although many people came, none of them were able to come in."
"Those were the people sent by Huo Xiu." Lu Xiaofeng frowned and said, "But if no one came in, how could Huo Tianqing notify Shangguan Feiyan to kill Sixiu? Besides, Huo Tianqing was already dead at that time."
"Maybe we can ask Zhu Ting." Su Yang said, Zhu Ting has been staying in Jinpeng Palace.
Just like the rich Huo Xiu likes to wear the simplest common clothes, Zhu Ting, the most skillful person, lives in a very ordinary place, a small courtyard with no trace of any hidden weapon.
In fact, there is no mechanism here.
Lu Xiaofeng knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. His expression changed instantly and he kicked the door open.
In the room, an old mahogany table fell to the ground. The teapot and cups on the table were smashed, but no one could be seen.
A large bed and several chairs had been shaken to pieces. It looked like someone must have done something here.
Shangguan Xueer opened her mouth in surprise and said: "How is it possible? I was here chatting with the big fat man a few days ago, and the big fat man agreed to help me make a toy."
"Toy? What toy?" Su Yang asked.
Shangguan Xueer said: "A bird, a bird that can dive to the bottom of the water. He said that it is not unusual for a bird to fly, but it is amazing to be able to dive."
Su Yang rushed into the house and searched around, and sure enough he found a bird carved from wood in the corner of the house. The carving was lifelike, just like a living dove. However, due to the rush of time, it had not yet been loaded into the machine spring, so
It cannot fly or dive.
"They are a good couple for you." Su Yang said, playing with the wooden bird in his hand.
Hua Manlou said: "It seems that someone was worried, so they kidnapped Zhu Ting and his wife to blackmail us."
"How good is Zhu Ting's martial arts?" Su Yang asked.
"If he and the proprietress do it together, even I will have a headache." Lu Xiaofeng sneered: "If you can kidnap them both, your martial arts skills are no worse than mine. There are not many people who are so good at martial arts."
Su Yang nodded and said: "Doing this is tantamount to telling us who he is. He shouldn't have done anything more."
Hua Manlou sighed and said, "I said, everyone will do something wrong."
"If you do something wrong, you will be punished. Whether you are a man or a woman, an old man or a child, an infatuated person or a heartless person, there is no reason why you should not pay the price for doing something wrong." Su Yang patted Shangguan Xueer: "You
Do you want to come with us and see us avenge your sister?”
Shangguan Xueer lowered her head dejectedly and sighed: "Although my sister committed suicide, it was me who killed my sister. If I didn't have so many things..."
Su Yang shook his head: "Your sister has reached the point where she can only commit suicide step by step, just like Huo Tianqing. One of them committed suicide and the other was committed suicide, but both of them only had the option of death, so we have to investigate.
, who pushed them to this point, this is the real murderer."
"Okay, I'll go!" Shangguan Xueer raised her head, her eyes full of hope: "I believe that with the abilities of the three of you, you will be able to deal with Huo Xiu."
............
The word "push" on the door of the small building is still there, so you can walk in by pushing the door open.
The mountainside was empty, and the countless jewels and weapons, as well as the four old men pretending to be the Golden Roc King, had miraculously disappeared.
In the middle of the mountain, there is a small stone platform, covered with an old straw mat. Huo Xiu, barefoot and wearing blue clothes that have been washed white, is sitting cross-legged on the straw mat to warm wine.
Huo Xiu glanced at Shangguan Xueer, who was following him, and his eyes instantly became like an unsheathed knife. Without saying a word, he slowly poured a glass of wine and drank it slowly.
Between smart people and smart people, there is no need for nonsense.
I don't know how long it took, but Huo Xiu suddenly laughed: "Actually, I have already guessed that in the end, when I am the only one left in the world, I will not be able to hide it from you."
"In the end, you are the only one left. Whoever gets the benefit is the most suspicious, but you could have refused to admit it." Su Yang nodded.
"Why should I not admit it?" Huo Xiu said with a smile: "Since all the wealth of the Jinpeng Dynasty now belongs to me, why should I not admit it?"
"You take it for granted." Su Yang and Lu Xiaofeng looked at each other and smiled.
Huo Xiu nodded slowly and said: "Of course. People in the Jinpeng Dynasty are all good at spending money, but they never know how hard it is to make money. Such people are not worthy of wealth. This wealth should be
It belongs to me, and I have worked hard to protect it and make it grow day by day. I will never let anyone share it, so their Yan Tieshan's Dugu Yihe should also die."
Lu Xiaofeng sighed and said: "Even thirty people can't spend all this wealth. You are so old, how can you bring it into the coffin in the future?"
Huo Xiu glared at him and said coldly: "If you have a wife, you can't use her during the day, but are you willing to let others share it with you?"
"No wonder you are so rich but never have a wife." Su Yang said with a smile: "It turns out that you value money more than your wife."
"Young man, when you reach my age, you will know that money is indeed more important than your wife." Huo Xiu said lightly.
"It's a pity that I'm still young and I probably won't have as much money as you in my life, so I can only think that my wife is more important than money."
Su Yang shrugged and was not prepared to talk more about this topic. He continued to ask: "I have always wondered, how do you know that Shangguan Feiyan killed the Great Golden Roc King? If the Great Golden Roc King had not died, in the end this would not be as good as wealth.
Is it your fault, or are you ready to kill him yourself in the end even if he doesn't die?"
"You don't need to know, I guessed it." Huo Xiu said: "Although the Jinpeng kings in the past dynasties did not make money, they were still people who kept their word. They valued the dignity of the royal family more than their own lives. Since
Back then, the little prince once said that if he gave us this wealth, he would not come to us for it even if he died of hunger."
"When you learned that King Jinpeng came to us to ask for the wealth of the three important ministers of that year, you already guessed that King Jinpeng must be a fake. Since the fake one appeared, then the real one must be dead, but
It's a pity that there really is a daughter, Princess Danfeng, who also has a proud royal bloodline, so Princess Danfeng has no choice but to die."
Huo Xiu nodded approvingly: "Yes, based on my understanding of Shangguan Jin back then, it was easy to guess that his granddaughter could do such a thing, and that she could pretend to be someone so similar to the Jinpeng family. For someone who knows the Jinpeng family so well, it was also
Only people from the Shangguan family."
Huo Xiu smiled and said, "Look, I didn't actually initiate this matter at all. It was just because someone wanted to do bad things, so I just pushed him."
"What you are pushing is to use us to kill Yan Tieshan and Dugu Yihe?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.
"Yan Tieshan is not insignificant, but Huo Tianqing is really a very powerful person. The one who wants to kill him is Shangguan Feiyan, and only Shangguan Feiyan can persuade Huo Tianqing to kill Yan Tieshan." Huo Xiu said: "The old man has one advantage, that is, he has experienced
There are more, so we can guess more about the thoughts of these ambitious young people."
"I'm afraid it's not just a guess." Lu Xiaofeng sneered: "The power of Qingyi House has been really big in the world in the past two years. I'm afraid there are very few people who don't know anything that the boss of Qingyi House wants to know. Shangguan Fei
I'm afraid that when Yan traveled around the world and fell in love with Huo Tianqing, it would have fallen into your eyes."
Su Yang suddenly said: "Not only did it fall in my eyes, maybe the meeting and even falling in love between the two of them was the result of your secret arrangement."
Huo Xiu laughed loudly: "You're right, Kuai Jian Xiao Su, you should come and do business with me. An ambitious woman from the Jin Peng Dynasty, and a close confidant of Yan Tieshan, if these two people are together, say
Maybe I'll be able to do something that makes me happy at some point. Although I didn't know what happened today, I felt that it would only be good for me to have them together and there would be no harm."
"You must be the one who sent the letter to Dugu Yihe, falsely accusing Lu Xiaofeng of being the owner of Qingyi Building?" Su Yang said.
Huo Xiu shook his head and said: "I didn't frame him. I, Dugu Yihe, and Yan Tieshan have been secretly communicating with each other these years. Dugu Yihe considers himself a chivalrous person and has always been against Qingyi Tower. I only said that the owner of Qingyi Tower is in Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion. He
He thought I was referring to Yan Tieshan and was embarrassed to speak directly. But as long as he goes there and sees that Yan Tieshan and Su Shaoying are also dead, who do you think he will think did it? "
"Where is Huo Tianqing?" Lu Xiaofeng asked, "Does it mean that he has no mouth and can't speak?"
"He wished that Dugu Yihe would kill you and put the murder of Yan Tieshan on your head. So at that time, I thought that it would not be a problem for Huo Tianqing and Dugu Yihe to join forces to kill you. It's a pity that due to some coincidence, they didn't start a fight."
"But we would think that the person who invited Dugu Yihe to Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion was Huo Tianqing, and then go find him. So you sent another letter to Dugu Yihe, and when we and Dugu Yihe were both there, you sent Qing
Taoist Feng poisoned Huo Tianqing and let him play a life of death in front of Dugu Yihe?" Su Yang asked.
"A monk like him actually has three wives and eight sons. Such a person should have died long ago. I just made his death more valuable."
Huo Xiu said: "Dugu Yihe is not easy to kill, otherwise I would have killed him long ago. If you can't kill him, let him kill you. It is a good choice for me, at least with my wealth
No one will come, and he won't be too happy after he kills the three of you. I'm afraid Jiangnan Huajia and Lu Xiaofeng's friends won't be able to let him go. As for you, Su Yang, although I haven't found out your background yet,
There is absolutely no need for Lu Xiaofeng, whoever openly kills the three of you will stir up a hornet's nest. Huo Tianqing is dead and Shangguan Feiyan can't make a difference, so in the end it is me who will benefit."
Lu Xiaofeng almost wanted to applaud: "From the beginning to the end, you did nothing. You only sent two letters, and in the end you pocketed such a huge fortune. You are worthy of being the best businessman in the world. You can do business without capital."
It’s so beautiful!”
Huo Xiu shook his head and said: "You are wrong. Without these decades of experience, how could I have found these two critical time points and sent two crucial letters? Isn't my decades of experience money?
?Doesn’t it cost me money to arrange for Huo Tianqing and Shangguan to get to know each other back then? Does it mean that the men I sent to Prince Jinpeng’s Mansion these days to deliberately die don’t need money? Does it mean that the three bowls of wine that the three of you came to drink last time don’t cost money? Does it mean that I and I today are free of charge?
You don’t need to pay for the time you spent talking? Don’t you need to pay for the pen, ink, paper and inkstone used in those two letters?”
Lu Xiaofeng's eyes almost fell out of his eyes. He swallowed hard and sighed: "Now I really understand how you got rich."
"Of course a businessman should be careful about every penny he spends. This is a very good quality. I admire you for this." Su Yang nodded seriously and gave a thumbs up sign.
"Actually, if you are willing to stop here, you can still come to me for a drink in the future." Huo Xiu said sincerely: "Even the time I spend talking to you today is not counted as money. Especially you, Kuai Jian Xiao Su,
There are not many people who are as suitable for business as you. I don’t have a son. If you are willing to wait, after I die, all this wealth will be yours."
Su Yang shrugged and said helplessly: "I really want the money, but it's a pity that I still want to marry a wife. I don't want to wait for an old man to die and take over his wife, so I can only disappoint you." Without waiting for Huo,
When Su Yang stopped talking, he said again: "If you sit here and tell us everything unabashedly, aren't you afraid that we will kill people?"
"Of course I'm not afraid!" Huo Xiu pointed to the empty belly of the mountain and said, "Look, I have moved all the things here, and I am ready to leave this place as your tomb."
"Then you still have to feel bad." Su Yang smiled.
"Why?"
"Such a large cemetery is worth a lot of money. Wouldn't it be a loss to give it to us for free?"
Huo Xiu glanced at him and said, "Yes, I will say that you are definitely more suitable for business than the two of them. You reminded me that it is said that Lu Xiaofeng always carries a thick stack of banknotes with him. After he dies,
, I will come back and take out the banknote, so you can buy this cemetery from me."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled bitterly and said, "You even want money from dead people?"
Shuang Xiu said: "No matter what kind of money I want, this is also one of the secrets to getting rich."
Huo Xiu was about to say something else, but Lu Xiaofeng suddenly moved.
His foot touched the ground lightly, and it seemed that he had gained great strength. The strength spread along the toes to the ankles, then to the calves, knees, and climbed up to the spine. In an instant, it had spread all over the body, and the whole body seemed to be hit.
Like a spring machine, it swooped out of place.
He has practiced this action countless times, so all parts of the body work closely together, which is why the speed is so fast. Su Yang was so fast that he was pulled into the air.
His words were still being recalled in the heart of the mountain, but the person had already reached a foot in front of Huo Xiu.
Boom! A heavy crash suddenly sounded in the valley, making people's ears hurt.
