Qingling Punishing Heart

Chapter 29

Hua Rulang is holding an ordinary shoe in his hand.

A left shoe.

A woman's shoe.

A beautiful cocked toe shoe.

"Who would give only one shoe as a gift?" Su Ji murmured, "Could it be misplaced?"

Hua Rulang shook his little head like a rattle, blinked his big eyes, and said:
"It's not like it's been misplaced. Because the box it's in is so small that it can only hold a shoe, and there's nothing in it except the shoe."

Hearing what Hua Rulang said, Su Ji felt even more strange, so he took the shoe and inspected it carefully, trying to find the special features of this shoe.He found that the size of this shoe was too small, it might not be easy for an adult woman to fit in it, and it would be too big for a child, so it can be seen that the owner of the shoe is a small and exquisite woman.

Su Ji pulled out the insole inside, turned it over, and found a few lines of poetry embroidered on the back:

"Only Luan is embroidered on the forehead of the red silk account, but you can't see the moon shadow alone. It's good to compare eyes and make a pair. I only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals."

Su Ji frowned, vaguely feeling that the embroiderer wanted to convey some ambiguous message.

The insole was stepped on very thin, it should have been worn by a woman for a long time.Thinking that the owner of the shoes might be a small and exquisite beauty, Su Ji couldn't help laughing, picked up the shoes and smelled them.He smelled a faint fragrance, not like the fragrance of rouge powder, but like a woman's unique body fragrance,

At that moment, he felt that if spring had a fragrance, it would probably smell similar to this shoe.

Seeing Su Ji's intoxicated and contented expression, Hua Rulang became curious and begged anxiously:
"Master! Master! Disciples want to hear it too!"

As Hua Rulang said, he brought his nose closer, and before he could take a breath, he heard a voice say:
"Why don't you just eat it?"

With a cold word, Su Ji instantly fell from the warm spring into the ice hole in winter, from the bottom of his heart to the tip of his toes.

The voice came from above, and Mu Lingyu came down from upstairs.

"Master!" Hua Rulang called out cordially.

A trace of disgust flashed across Mu Lingyu's eyes, Su Ji quickly patted Huarulang's head, and whispered:

"Wolf, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to act."

Mu Lingyu's expression was indifferent, she looked like a different person from when she was drunk, which made Su Ji feel a huge gap, and couldn't help feeling secretly that last night was just a dream.

He lifted up the shoes and asked her solemnly: "You have seen a lot, please help me to take a look, what kind of gift are these shoes?"

Mu Lingyu glanced at the shoe.She has no interest in the identity of the owner of the shoe, but is quite curious about the embroidery on the shoe.There is a mandarin duck embroidered on the upper. The embroidery is not very particular, and it can even be said to be rough.She looked at the lonely mandarin duck and said lightly:

"Mandarin ducks are infatuated birds. The male and the female swim side by side all day long, and they are inseparable. If someone captures one, the other will surely die of love. The mandarin duck has gorgeous plumage, with purple crests on the back of its head. It should be a male mandarin duck. Shoes The owner may want you to send it back, and wants to see you."

Su Ji smiled and said: "You and I want to go together. Everything in the world has yang and yin. When I saw this male, I couldn't help but want to find the female as well, so that they can make a pair." Son."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rush of footsteps outside the pavilion, and a soft and weird voice shouted:
"It's not good! Pavilion Master! Something happened! Something happened!"

The three people in the cabinet turned their heads to look, only to see Eunuch Bai running over panting.

"Eunuch Bai! You came just in time!" Su Ji raised the insole in front of his eyes, and said, "Don't worry about it, let's take a look at this shoe first! What do the words on it remind you of?"

Eunuch Bai swallowed back the words on his lips, staring at the insoles, panting heavily, and asked:
"Is this thing found in the box on the left?"

Hua Rulang clapped his hands and hurriedly said, "That's right! That's right! How did you know?"

Eunuch Bai wiped the sweat from his brow and explained:

"The twelve boxes on the left were sent by Huang Mei and others. These people are Mo Shu's subordinates. I once heard Master Yuyang recite this poem, and I heard that the person who wrote it was Mrs. Mo."

Mu Lingyu looked at Su Ji in astonishment, and said, "Li Rumei wants to see you?"

Su Ji smiled disapprovingly and said, "Maybe it's not Li Rumei, but Mo Shu's idea. This embroidered shoe is probably similar to Jiang Ying's marriage letter. It's unbelievably absurd. Jiang Ying gave away his daughter, but Mo Shu gave his wife away! Ridiculous! Really ridiculous!"

Su Ji clutched his stomach, laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten up.

"Pavilion master, do you still have the mood to laugh?" Eunuch Bai stomped his feet suddenly, and said anxiously: "Jiang Ying's daughter heard that the marriage certificate was torn up, so she ran away from home! Jiang Ying is rushing here now!"

After Eunuch Bai finished speaking, the three people beside him were stunned.

Su Ji opened his eyes slightly, and said anxiously, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Eunuch Bai sighed helplessly, and said, "I wanted to talk, but you were in a hurry to show me women's shoes, I..."

Su Ji interrupted him, put his hands on his shoulders, and said:

"Since Eunuch Bai is here, there must be a way to help me!"

"There is one way, but you can't stay in this Hou Mansion, you can only go to the Xuanhu Sect to avoid it. There is a passage left by the willow fairy and giant snake under the Xuanling Pavilion, which leads directly to a hill, and the Xuanhu Sect is there. , come with me!"

After finishing speaking, Eunuch Bai staggered towards the north side of Xuanling Pavilion.

At this time, Hua Rulang ran over and handed over a package. Su Ji opened it and saw that it contained Juying Lantern and Longevity Gu.

Just as Su Ji put the package on his back, he saw a mahogany sword lying in front of the two of them!

"You can go." Mu Lingyu stared at Su Ji and said. "Leave the child behind."

"Are you afraid that I will leave?"

"Who will act after you escape?"

After Mu Lingyu finished speaking, Hua Rulang anxiously looked at her master.

Su Ji leaned over and whispered something to him, and he nodded. Although his anxious expression eased slightly, his eyes were still full of fear.

Seeing the uneasy expression of his apprentice, Su Ji, the master, felt powerless and ashamed. If only he could be stronger, if he could be smarter, if he had the same talent as Mu Lingyu, even if only she Half of it is fine, maybe you don't have to run away with your tail between your legs.

Mu Lingyu put away the mahogany sword, lowered her voice and said to Su Ji:
"When you arrive at the Xuanhu Sect, you might as well seek a teacher and learn some Taoism to defend yourself. The next time we meet will be at the Double Ninth Festival on the ninth day of next month. That's when I kill people. Don't hold me back then."

Su Ji said in a deep voice: "It seems that I haven't agreed to help you yet!"

Mu Lingyu smiled contemptuously, and said: "You have no choice, you should wait until you have the ability to negotiate terms with me. Even if I let this child go now, can you protect your apprentice with your strength?"

Su Ji gritted his teeth, he had his own pride in his bones, how could he endure such humiliation alive?
The branches on the north side of Xuanling Pavilion made a rustling sound.The towering ancient wood in front of the window began to move, green claw-like branches lifted up from the back of the Xuanling Hall, and a dark cave appeared below.

"If you don't leave, it will be too late!" Eunuch Bai shouted loudly.

As soon as he lit the torch to illuminate the entrance of the cave, he was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.I saw a man in black tiger skin coming out of the dark cave, with a shiny black horned dagger stuck obliquely in his waist!
