Chasing the gods in Zongwudang

"You two, please!"

Lu Cheng and Xue Bing had just walked to the gate of Nanwang Mansion, and before they reported their identity, they saw someone guiding them in.

"That..." Lu Cheng still wanted to explain, so he listened to the man.

"If you two are Lu Cheng and Xue Bing, then come with the younger one. Mr. Lu Xiaofeng is here."

After finishing speaking, the man didn't wait for Lu Cheng and Xue Bing to reply, and walked directly into the depths of the palace.

"Let's go!"

Xue Bing stretched out his hand and tugged at Lu Cheng's sleeve, he was so worried about Lu Xiaofeng's life that he didn't have time to think too much.Don't say this is the palace, even if it is the palace, she dares to break into it.

After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, the person leading the way stopped in front of a house.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three rhythmic knocks on the door.

"Playboy, people have brought it!"

The door opened, and Lu Cheng saw a handsome man with a gentle and refined temperament appearing.

"Thank you!"

Thanking the person who led the way, Hua Manlou then turned to Lu Cheng and Xue Bing, "Captain Lu, Miss Xue!"

"Hua Man Lou, why are you here?"

Xue Bing took a step forward, "Where is Lu Xiaofeng?"

Hua Manlou smiled, "Miss Xue, don't worry, Lu Xiaofeng is recuperating in the house and has already fallen asleep. When you go in, don't disturb him!"

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you!" Xue Bing agreed casually, and then quickly ran into the house.

"I've seen Catcher Lu!" Hua Manlou cupped his fists and saluted Lu Cheng.

"Playboy is being polite!"

Lu Cheng looked at Hua Manlou's eyes curiously, and when he saw that his eyes were not bright at all, he confirmed in his heart that Hua Manlou's eyes really couldn't see. "What's going on with Lu Xiaofeng? His martial arts are so high, how could he still be seriously injured?"

Hua Manlou said: "It's Ye Gucheng. Lu Xiaofeng came here without warning yesterday and was bumped into by Ye Gucheng. Afterwards, he tested Lu Xiaofeng's strength with his sword skills. That sword was as fast as thunder, although Lu Xiaofeng's consonance pointed out that he was a young man in Jianghu. Some unique skills, but in front of that sword, they still fall into a disadvantage."

The body is like a colorful phoenix with two wings, and the heart has a clear understanding.

Lu Xiaofeng like this can't hold Ye Gucheng's sword, could it be that Ye Gucheng has become a congenital master?

"This sword pierced Lu Xiaofeng's chest, and the sharp sword energy hurt his lungs. If Nanwangfu hadn't rescued him in time, coupled with Lu Xiaofeng's high internal strength, he would have died under Ye Gucheng's sword yesterday. "

"Then what's his situation now?" Lu Cheng asked curiously.

Since Lu Xiaofeng will not die, what is his situation now?

Hua Manlou said: "Lung injury, he needs recuperation for a few years before he can recover. During this time, his strength will be somewhat reduced!"

"Then can I see him?" Lu Cheng asked again.

Hua Manlou didn't speak, but turned sideways and made a 'please' gesture.

Lu Cheng entered the room carefully, and saw Xue Bing who was crying silently because he was worried about Lu Xiaofeng, and saw Lu Xiaofeng lying on the bed with a pale face and in a coma.

After just a glance, Lu Cheng backed out.

What Lu Xiaofeng needs now is rest and recuperation, and his presence there will only disturb Lu Xiaofeng's rest, and besides, he still has things to do.

……

The backyard of the palace.

Hundreds of flowers are blooming, thousands of trees are towering, and the whole courtyard is a thriving scene.

In the courtyard, a man and a woman sat in a gazebo to enjoy the scenery.

"I didn't expect that you would come here today." Prince Nan, who was wearing ordinary scholar's clothes, looked at the woman in front of him, a look of amazement flashed in his eyes, and then the charm disappeared, and he became the ambitious Nan again. Wang Shizi.

"I've seen my lord!"

A woman, that is, Gongsun Lan, a woman that Lu Cheng never expected to appear here, appeared here.

She saw the change in Prince Nan's eyes, and her mood also changed with the change in his eyes.When he saw his eyes retracted and his silence as deep as an abyss, he couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.

"My lord, I have already found out who the Embroidered Avenue is!"

"Oh?" Nan Wang Shizi looked at Gongsun Lan with a little surprise, "The embroidered thief? I didn't expect you to find out the person that Jin Jiuling didn't find out. Who is he?"

Gongsun Lan explained: "My son, I didn't find out about this matter, but Lu Xiaofeng's sworn brother Lu Cheng. As for why Jin Jiuling couldn't find out, it's because he is the Embroidery Thief."

"Jin Jiuling is the Embroidery Thief?"

Prince Nan's face showed a hint of amusement, "This guy really knows how to play! He has committed several major crimes in the past few months, and has accumulated millions of funds in his hands. Maybe he is planning to rebel! "

The embroidered thief has done so many vicious things, in the eyes of Nan Wang Shizi, he is actually a "know how to play". If Jin Jiuling knows about this, I don't know what he will think.

Gongsun Landao: "In addition, Jin Jiuling also colluded with Sanniang. He lured Lu Xiaofeng here and threatened the Snake King at the same time. He wanted to plant the embroidery thief on me. Then through Sanniang, he received the red shoes. funds."

"So that's the case! This guy still has a lot of ideas."

Nan Wang Shizi sighed, but his eyes turned cold, "If this is the case, then he shouldn't keep it."

To do great things, the first thing you need is money.The red shoe is a white glove in the hands of Nan Wangshizi. He sits behind the scenes and can receive a lot of money without showing his face.

Now that Jin Jiuling dared to take the idea of ​​red shoes, don't blame him for being ruthless.

"The son is right, those who dare to plot against the red shoes will die!"

Prince Nan nodded, and asked, "Jin Jiuling's strength should not be underestimated. Does the teacher need to do it himself?" His teacher is naturally Ye Gucheng.

No matter how strong Jin Jiuling was, at most he was on equal terms with Lu Xiaofeng.Now that Lu Xiaofeng was seriously injured by Ye Gucheng's sword, then Jin Jiuling would only get two swords at most.

Gongsun Lan thought about it, then shook her head and refused.

"Jin Jiuling doesn't know that I already know about him. When Lu Cheng came to Nanwang Mansion just now, he said that he has evidence that Jin Jiuling is an embroidery thief. He will definitely jump over the wall in a hurry."

"Not bad!" Prince Nan looked at Gongsun Lan appreciatively, "As expected of my woman, she was considerate. Since Jin Jiuling assassinated Lu Cheng, I will ask the people in the mansion to give him a convenience. Anyway, the teacher is in the mansion. , even if Jin Jiuling wins, he won't get out alive."

A sentence of "my woman" made Gongsun Lan smile, and she looked more beautiful than the surrounding scenery.

……

"Brother Lu, this way please!"

Huamanlou politely led Lu Cheng to the next room, and then a maid came over to serve tea.

The smoke is faint and the tea is fragrant.

Lu Cheng couldn't help but exclaimed, "Good tea!"

"It's good tea!"

Hua Manlou agreed: "This is the Dragon Well before the rain in West Lake. From picking, to selecting tea, to making tea, the process is rigorous, and most of them have become royal tributes. As the most honored uncle among the emperors, King Nan, It is normal to be able to take out this kind of tea to entertain us."

Lu Cheng smiled and said, "I'm afraid that Nan Wang is not entertaining such a small captor like me, but mainly for the playboy to enjoy."

Although Huamanlou himself has a noble character, Nan Wang is definitely not the kind of person who respects a person just because of his character.Such a high-ranking person will naturally reward those who are useful, and if they are useless, they will naturally be kicked away.

As the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, the status of the seventh child of the Hua family is enough for Hua Manlou to receive such treatment.

"Brother Lu is humble."

"Brother Lu is not well-known now, but with time, he will definitely be famous in the world. The case of the Fuwei Escort's extermination, and the soon-to-be-solved Embroidery Thief case, the credit of these two major cases is to be a god arrest, and it should be of."

Lu Cheng said modestly, "Thank you for your kind words, Young Master Hua."

Hua Manlou smiled, "Brother Lu Cheng and Lu Xiaofeng are sworn brothers, and Lu Xiaofeng and I have a good relationship. If Brother Lu doesn't dislike it, this title can be closer."

For Hua Manlou, Lu Cheng still wanted to make friends with him.

Since Huamanlou wanted to get closer to him, Lu Cheng naturally wouldn't reject him thousands of miles away.

"A more intimate title, Old Hua and Mr. Hua, which of these two titles do you think is better?"

"Old Hua is fine, what does Hua always mean?" Hua Manlou was a little puzzled.

In his cognition, many close people will call each other's nickname, and some men will add the word "old" before each other's name, such as: Lao Li, Lao Wang, Lao Zhang, etc. to express closeness.

But Mr. Hua, he didn't understand.

"Mr. Hua's words describe someone with a lot of money like you. You can call me Lao Lu. Of course, if you are afraid that my name will be confused with Brother Feng, you can call me 'A Cheng'!"

Hua Manlou said: "Ah Cheng, what a name!"

Lu Cheng said: "The name depends on the person, I am honest and sincere. I have been in the rivers and lakes for so long, and I have always treated people with sincerity, so many people will call me an honest and reliable young man."

Hua Manlou's expression froze, and after a moment's pause, he smiled casually: "Now I know why the relationship between you and Lu Xiaofeng is so good."

Lu Cheng said: "I can understand that you mean that the two of us share similar tastes?"

Hua Manlou smiled and said, "You, Ah Cheng, said that, not me."

Lu Cheng'color changed suddenly', and he said angrily: "Good old lady, I knew that you can get along with Brother Feng, and you must not be a modest gentleman."

Hua Manlou shook the folding fan lightly in his hand, matched with his gentle and jade-like demeanor, he really looked like a son of an exiled fairy standing in troubled times.

"Hua has never said that he is a gentleman. This is what other people judge me. Since it is not slander, Hua has no choice but to let it go."

At this moment, the image of Huamanlou in Lu Cheng's heart became much more three-dimensional.

In front of outsiders, Hua Manlou talked elegantly, unhurriedly, and the mountain collapsed in front of him without changing his color. He was a first-class good son in the world at that time.But in front of acquaintances, Hua Manlou can also joke and fight, so although he is a little less gentle, he is a little more real.

"The taste of this tea is a bit strange. I don't seem to be able to summon up my internal strength!" Hua Manlou looked solemn, and suddenly picked up the teacup with his right hand and sniffed it. When he smelled something unusual in the tea fragrance, Hua Manlou got up immediately, " Cheng, let's go!"

"Go, it seems too late!"

Lu Cheng stood up and looked towards the door, where a woman in a red coat with a big beard and a strange face appeared in front of Lu Cheng.

"I've shot so many times, but it's the first time I've met someone who is blind. If that's the case, then I'll spare your life and only stab one blind today."

"Embroidered Thief" said, raised his right hand, and two silver needles pierced the air, and the target was Lu Cheng's eyes.

"Are you the embroidery thief?" Lu Cheng opened his mouth and asked, and at the same time swung his right hand quickly, and the two silver needles that flew towards his eyes fell into his hand immediately.

"You haven't lost your inner strength?"

Seeing Lu Cheng lightly catching his own attack, the 'Embroidered Thief' looked startled, then waved both hands at the same time, the silver light pierced the sky, like a star shining in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the silver needle had already arrived in front of Lu Cheng .

This time, the 'Embroidered Thief' sacrificed the opportunity to sneak up on Lu Cheng's eyes, and was going to kill him with silver needles.

"It should be a good method!"

Before Lu Cheng could finish his words, he waved his wide sleeve with his right hand, gathering his inner strength, the originally soft sleeve turned into an iron wall, knocking down all the flying silver needles.

"This technique is a bit like the flying needle technique of the Shenzhen Xue family? But it is specious!" Hua Manlou stood up, but saw that his expression was as usual, and his demeanor was calm.The embroidered thief retreated quickly, and exclaimed at the same time: "How did you find out that I drugged you?"

"If you want to run, it's better to stay."

Lu Cheng had a sneer on his face, and he was running lightly. He disappeared in front of the 'Embroidered Thief' in an instant, and by the time she realized it, Lu Cheng had already arrived in front of her.

"Death!" The embroidered thief yelled, and his right hand was about to be raised.

"Sunflower acupuncture hand!"

Pirates of Shengbaizhantang's unique skills really deserved its reputation, and the 'Embroidered Thief' waved his hands, and he was restrained.

"This is the Embroidered Thief?" Hua Manlou was a little speechless. He thought that this Embroidered Thief had committed several major crimes, and his strength would definitely be top-notch.Now this person's strength is in the first class and belongs to the middle class, even he is sure that he can easily restrain him.

It is such a person who stole eighteen pearls from the Nanwangfu. Could it be that the defense of the Nanwangfu is so lax?

"Of course she's not the Embroidery Bandit!" Lu Cheng reached out and grabbed the 'Embroidery Bandit''s beard.

"I am the Embroidery Thief. I am here today because you have the secret about my true identity in your hands. Naturally, I will not let you go." The Embroidery Thief explained, "Today I am defeated by you. You can take I'm on a errand."

Lu Cheng said with a 'nuclear' smile: "According to what you said, it is indeed the best way for me to arrest you and bring you to justice. After all, I haven't deciphered the identity of the real embroidery thief. In order to avoid complications, normally speaking , I should do as you say."

"What do you mean?" Seeing Lu Cheng's strange smile, the 'Embroidered Thief' had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"You are a beautiful woman, but how can I follow a thief!"

Lu Cheng's right hand stroked the embroidered thief's face lightly, the beard fell down, and the original weird makeup faded away, revealing a beautiful face with a signature.

"Old Hua, what do you think this beauty looks like?"

Hua Manlou was helpless, he didn't know what Lu Cheng was going to do, but thinking that Lu Xiaofeng believed in Lu Cheng so much, he also chose to believe in Lu Cheng.

"The voice is as clear and gentle as a lark, and her figure is as slender as a shocking bird. She should be a rare beauty in the world."

Hearing this, Lu Cheng's eyes lit up, he looked at Hua Manlou and said in admiration.

"Hey, Lao Hua, you really deserve to be the seventh young master of the Hua family. Hearing what you said, I think that the beauties you have come into contact with have eighty if not a hundred!"

Hua Manlou's complexion turned dark, thinking that Hua Manlou is clean and self-sufficient, and at this age, he is still a child. Lu Cheng said that he has met a hundred beauties, which is pure slander.That Lu Xiaofeng likes to drink his wine, this Lu Cheng likes to ruin his reputation, so far, he has come to a conclusion.

'This person surnamed Lu is not a good person! '

Hearing Lu Cheng's comment, the "Embroidered Thief" looked at Huamanlou like a silver stick, even if her heart was full of determination to die calmly, she couldn't help but feel worried at this moment.

She is not afraid of death.

But she was afraid of experiencing something indescribable before she died.

"I am the Embroidery Thief, you guys quickly catch me back and execute me! Since I have done such a thing, I am not afraid of death. If you two are heroes, give me a good time!"

"Slow down, don't worry, there is still a long time in this day, we still have a lot of fun things to do, I promise to let you..." Lu Cheng's smiling eyes, in the eyes of the "Embroidered Thief", are simply more than The evil spirits in Infernal Hell are even more terrifying.

"Ah Cheng!" Hua Manlou kindly reminded: "There is someone from outside. He is very strong and walks like fallen leaves. He is a master."
