Chapter 66: Reasons without evidence

Lu Xiaofeng thought that he had been quite calm in the first half of the year. Probably, apart from the fact that he met the owner of Wanwu Tower, Zhongming, he had not done anything that would cause him to be hunted down and interrogated by the killer of Qingyi Tower.

After the killer of Qingyi Tower left, Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuxue looked at each other for a long time, and no one spoke.

Wangcai was playing with the corner of Ximen Chuxue's clothes, leaving a faint gray plum blossom paw print on Ximen Chuxue's snow-white outer clothes.

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Wangcai likes you very much."

Ximen Chuxue said lightly, "It likes everyone."

Just now when the killer was pressed at the table and interrogated, Wangcai raised his paws and rubbed his head happily, very enthusiastic.

Lu Xiaofeng also thought of the scene just now, and was silent for a moment, feeling a little headache.

Wangcai could rub against the killer with such murderous aura. If he met any killer enemy again when traveling with him in the future, wouldn't Wangcai be very dangerous?

The vicious killer would not care about the life of a dog.

Wangcai, who was standing aside, bit the corner of Ximen Chuxue's clothes with his dog mouth and paws, and tore it wantonly while shaking his body.

Ximen Chuxue's clothes have a faint plum blossom scent. This guy also burns incense before going to bed. When Bu Zao was playing the game, he was tortured by the NPC of Wanmei Villa in order to obtain the formula of plum blossom incense. Wangcai with plum blossom paw prints is just right.

Careful players are very keen to add some irrelevant and itchy little troubles to the game characters who have troubled them in the past as mascot vests.

Ximen Chuxue: "..."

He just kept silent.

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and observed Ximen Chuxue's face. Seeing that the other party's expression was calm, he cheered for Wangcai in his heart. He also thought that Ximen Chuxue had too much murderous aura, so animals usually didn't like him and avoided him. Wangcai was the first dog Lu Xiaofeng saw who was willing to get close to him.

Bu Zao stopped there and retreated to Lu Xiaofeng's side before Ximen Chuxue took out his sword to block him. He squatted beside her and admired the full moon outside the window.

The night wind was slightly warm, and the moonlight that came through the cracks was faintly milky white.

A certain wild call that might exist or not exist made Wangcai howl at the moon.

[The system decided to teach players the tricks of playing the role of a dog.]

Bu Zao: ...Some tricks don't need to be learned.

*

Ximen Chuxue waited with Lu Xiaofeng for a few days. Perhaps because he knew that Ximen Chuxue was also by Lu Xiaofeng's side, he did not see the killer sent by Qingyi Building again.

Lu Xiaofeng has always been very curious. The assassin of Qingyi Building wanted to ask him something that he himself didn't know. His curiosity had already jumped up, and he was eager to know what he had done.

Ordinary people would probably be angry and speechless after finding out that they were believed to have done something they didn't do, but Lu Xiaofeng had already begun to think about where to start the investigation with great interest.

Oh, right - doesn't the owner of Wanwu Building know everything in the world?

Lu Xiaofeng thought, maybe Chongming knows something that he himself doesn't know.

He told Ximen Chuxue about his future plans.

Ximen Chuxue was wiping his sword under the tree. Hearing this, he looked up and asked, "Are you going to take the dog with you too?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Wangcai.

Wangcai was lying under Ximen Chuxue's legs, wagging his tail, his head sticking out from under Ximen Chuxue's clothes, his ears shaking from time to time, his round eyes full of innocence.

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

It seems that Ximen Chuxue also likes Wangcai.

"What should I do?" Lu Xiaofeng teased Wangcai, "Do you want to go with me to see Chongming?"

Wangcai: "Woof woof woof!!"

Lu Xiaofeng: "It's better not to, after all, it's very dangerous."

Wangcai jumped out and threw himself on him. He was quite heavy. Lu Xiaofeng hugged Wangcai tightly, and then he spun around with a whoosh.

The man and the dog turned around several times, and after landing, Wangcai lost his way, wagging his tail and spinning in place, his left foot stumbling over his right foot, and finally falling headfirst under Lu Xiaofeng's feet.

Ximen Chuxue didn't care about Wanwu Tower, but he knew about its existence earlier than Lu Xiaofeng did—thanks to a demon cult leader who had dealt with Wanwu Tower.

The image of Chongming he heard from Lu Xiaofeng was slightly different from the rumors in the martial arts world, but he could still tell that he was a very elusive person.

"Do you think Wanwulou knows something that you don't know?"

Lu Xiaofeng thought for a moment and said, "As far as I know, there is no one who is dissatisfied with Wanwulou."

Rather than knowing why he was being hunted down and interrogated by Qingyilou, he was more curious about what answer Wanwulou could give him.

Ximen Chuxue saw what Lu Xiaofeng was thinking and said nothing. He just used his sword to separate Wangcai from rolling on the ground and then throwing himself at him.

Bu Zao was persistent. Ximen Chuxue didn't use any force. He took advantage of the gap and dived into Ximen Chuxue's arms, rolling in Ximen Chuxue's arms with dust all over his body.

Lu Xiaofeng burst into laughter, but Ximen Chuxue always felt that Wangcai did it on purpose, especially when Wangcai saw Bai Yi Ranchen, his tail was almost wagging in the air, and he was grinning, his teeth were not visible.

Ximen Chuxue reached out and gently tapped Wangcai's head.

Wangcai: "Awoo!!"

This was the first time Ximen Chuxue reached out to touch a dog. Before, no matter what Wangcai did, Ximen Chuxue just used his sword to block him.

Bu Zao thought to himself, it seems that even the sword god is impressed by the cuteness of the mascot.

To celebrate the first physical contact between a man and a dog, Bu Zao climbed up Ximen Chuxue's arm and climbed onto his back, put his paws on his shoulders, and barked happily.

Ximen Chuxue's shoulders were slightly bent by the pressure, and his silence was heavier than the weight of Wangcai.

Lu Xiaofeng smiled for a while, and seeing that Wangcai showed no sign of coming down, and Ximen Chuxue's eyes were dim, he hurried over to pick up the dog, rubbed Wangcai's head and taught him a lesson.

"Don't run to others casually."

Wangcai: "Woof woof."

Ximen Chuxue got up without hesitation to change clothes.

Wangcai woofed twice more at his back, his tail wagging back and forth, and Lu Xiaofeng held his tail.

*

There is another reason why Lu Xiaofeng wanted to entrust Wanwulou. When Wangcai heard Chongming's name, he showed obvious recognition of the other party, which made Lu Xiaofeng very concerned.

If Chongming is really Wangcai's master, he is willing to train goldfish for Wangcai, which means he values ​​it very much.

Lu Xiaofeng had such a motive, and also had the idea of ​​finding an owner for Wangcai.

The way to contact Wanwulou is very simple. Lu Xiaofeng learned a method from Chongming.

- Just leave a pattern of an eye in a conspicuous place, and within three days, a letter will appear near him.

After obtaining Ximen Chuxue's consent, Lu Xiaofeng drew a pattern of an eye with stove soot in the corner of the gate outside the yard.

When Wangcai was taking the ashes from the stove, his head was covered with ashes. He squatted beside Lu Xiaofeng and looked at her with his head tilted. Lu Xiaofeng was afraid that he would smear the eye pattern with his claws, so he warned Wangcai not to stretch out his claws while drawing.

Ximen Chuxue was also looking forward to it. Two days later, Lu Xiaofeng woke up and found a letter next to his pillow. He

opened the letter and found it was blank with only an address, which asked Lu Xiaofeng to go there in person.

Lu Xiaofeng was silent. After washing up, he took the letter to find Ximen Chuxue. He wanted to ask Ximen Chuxue if he noticed anything at night, but Ximen Chuxue looked at the letter in Lu Xiaofeng's hand and the three big words "Wanwu Building" on it, and his expression was slightly gloomy.

Although he didn't say anything, Lu Xiaofeng already understood something.

Neither he nor Ximen Chuxue noticed that someone had sneaked in at night.

The Wanwu Building was really so powerful.

The location indicated in the letter was not far from here, and it did not require Lu Xiaofeng to go alone. Lu Xiaofeng thought about it and asked Ximen Chuxue if he wanted to go with him.

The person who was able to avoid Ximen Chuxue and sneak into Lu Xiaofeng's room must be very powerful.

So Ximen Chuxue thought for a while, nodded and accepted Lu Xiaofeng's invitation.

Bu Zao was happy, and excitedly bumped into Ximen Chuxue's legs and gave him two plum blossoms.

Come on! Let's have fun together!

Ximen Chuxue: ...

*

There is a thatched house in the distance.

Surrounded by mountains, the sky is high and the land is vast. In the green, the withered thatched house looks very abrupt.

Xu Qingyun looked at the thatched house nervously.

After parting with Xiao Qingzhou, Xu Qingyun commissioned Wanwulou according to the other party's words, wanting to know what Wuhua had done.

Not long ago, a letter from Wanwulou appeared at the door of Xu Qingyun's room, asking her to come here and someone would give her an answer.

Xu Qingyun didn't know who she was going to meet, but she hoped that she could meet the owner of Wanwulou, Zhongming.

After hearing the conversation between Xiao Qingzhou and his senior brother Wu Du, Xu Qingyun was suddenly aware of the strange and subtle aspects of the Salted Fish Sect. Since then, she has also developed some curiosity.

Could the person waiting for her in that thatched cottage be Chongming?

Xu Qingyun took a deep breath. She looked up at the boundless blue sky and walked towards the thatched cottage. As she walked, two figures appeared behind her.

And a loud dog barked.

"Woof woof!"

Xu Qingyun turned around and saw two men standing on the path where she came from. One had a mustache on his lips, and the other was dressed in white with a sword at his waist.

A black and gold dog came running down the path with a cheerful pace. Xu Qingyun took a step back, but the dog passed by her and rushed into the thatched cottage at lightning speed.

Xu Qingyun looked back and saw that there was no movement in the cottage. No one went out to check.

Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuxue also approached her.

"Miss, have you also received an invitation from Wanwulou?"

Lu Xiaofeng asked.

Lu Xiaofeng was not expecting to see other people here. He wondered if Chongming wanted to save trouble, so he arranged to meet him and this girl here at the same time.

Xu Qingyun was still a little wary, but Lu Xiaofeng had already pointed out her purpose. After a little thought, she nodded slightly in response.

The three of them walked towards the thatched house together, with a clear distance between them.

Lu Xiaofeng had a guess when Wangcai rushed into the thatched house, and when he saw the young man in the house feeding Wangcai with dried meat, his guess was verified.

The person waiting for them in the house was the owner of Wanwu Building, Chongming.

Compared to the last time they parted, Chongming was still dressed in black, with a silver mask on half of his face shining dimly in the thatched hut, and his eyes were still gloomy and emotionless. The red rope on his shoulders was bright in color, contrasting with the red rope on Wangcai's neck.

In addition, Chongming had obviously lost a lot of weight, and the knuckles of his wrists sticking out from his sleeves were particularly prominent.

Lu Xiaofeng was a little surprised.

Chongming slowly got up from the ground, and Wangcai squatted at his feet and chewed dried meat. Before they came in, when Ma Jia met again, Bu had already fulfilled his wish to pet the dog.

Now it's time to talk about business and stop petting the dog. Chong Ming straightened his sleeves, looked up at Lu Xiaofeng, and said lightly: "Long time no see."

Lu Xiaofeng was surprised that Chong Ming would take the initiative to say hello, but Chong Ming gestured to Wangcai beside him and said, "Thank you for taking care of Wangcai."

"...Wangcai is your dog,"

Lu Xiaofeng asked.

"It's not my dog." Chongming replied, with a hint of gloom in his expression for a moment, and then he looked at Xu Qingyun and said, "Your commission came earlier, so I will answer your question first. The account will be put on Xiaozhou, right?"

Xu Qingyun was a little confused: "Xiaozhou... I was indeed introduced by Master Xiaogu."

She didn't know that Xiao Qingzhou's name in the sect was "Xiaozhou". At this time, she mistook "Xiaozhou" for "Xiaozhou", thinking that although Chongming was a senior brother who betrayed the sect, the relationship between the brothers was still so close.

Chongming paused slightly.

Wangcai called out twice when he heard the word "Xiaozhou", but did not respond to "Xiao Qingzhou".

Lu Xiaofeng looked back and forth and tentatively said, "Master Chongming, should we avoid it?"

Ximen Chuxue stared at Chongming, who had a withdrawn and repressed temperament, and was younger than he thought.

Chongming looked at Xu Qingyun and asked her: "These two, one is Lu Xiaofeng, and the other is Ximen Chuxue. Are you willing to let them know?"

He mentioned Ximen Chuxue's name right away, and it seemed that Chongming was very clear about the situation around Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng thought Xu Qingyun would not agree, but when Xu Qingyun heard their names, her eyes lit up, and she nodded without hesitation and said: "Please go ahead, Master Chongming. You two don't have to avoid it."

These words seemed to please Chongming very much, and he showed a satisfied look on his face, and then asked several people to take a seat.

Speaking of sitting down, there was only an old square table in the thatched house. After the four of them sat down, the thatched house seemed very narrow. Wangcai climbed onto the bench and squatted next to Chongming in a very proper and proud manner, putting his two front paws on the table, looking like the owner of the place.

Even if it was not Chongming's dog, it must be a dog that Chongming was very familiar with, and its closeness to Chongming could not be faked.

Next, Chongming slowly told the results of Xu Qingyun's commission and the information about what Master Wuhua had done.

There was no detail, no matter how big or small.

Even the mother-son relationship between Wuhua and Shi Guanyin and the fact that his father was a Japanese ninja, Tianfeng Shishilang, were all told. Even his biological brother, who was now the young leader of the Beggar Gang, Nangong Ling, was not kept back.

Lu Xiaofeng's eyes twitched slightly when he heard this. The huge amount of information made him not know how to react for a moment.

He finally understood why Xu Qingyun wanted him and Ximen Chuxue to stay and listen to these contents.

Master Wuhua has the reputation of "Seven Wonderful Monks" in the martial arts world. Both Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuxue have heard of the reputation of this master and admired him.

Ximen Chuxue stared at Chongming and asked, "How did you know these things?"

Chongming said lightly, "It's impossible to tell you."

Wangcai raised his paw and knocked on the table. Bu Zao himself was afraid that Ximen Chuxue would fight with the eldest disciple Ma Jia if they didn't agree on anything.

But the reasons of the characters are hard to avoid, so here is where the cute little Wangcai comes in!

Lu Xiaofeng also spoke, and he said with difficulty: "Come to think of it... I have always been concerned, is Xiao Qingzhou referring to the owner of the Evil Valley? Master Chongming knows him."

Lu Xiaofeng could not have not heard of Xiao Qingzhou's name. During this period of time, the names of Master Wuhua and Xiao Qingzhou were inseparable. Whenever one of them was mentioned, the other would inevitably be thought of.

Everyone praised Master Wuhua for his compassion and was willing to persuade the owner of the Evil Valley to turn back.

Chongming was silent.

Xu Qingyun carefully observed his expression, and Lu Xiaofeng keenly noticed that there was more to them than just acquaintance.

"I know him. He was my former junior fellow apprentice. But that's not important. I'm his creditor now."

Zhongming's tone was cold, but the look in his eyes was

extremely complicated. Xu Qingyun lowered her head, and it was obvious that she knew the truth.

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

He made a baseless guess.

"The killer Wudu..."

"Tsk." Zhongming showed an impatient look, frowning, "That annoying guy was also my junior fellow apprentice."

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."
