Zongwu: Eavesdropping on the inner voices, the female warriors have become strange

Do you think I will give you the Nine Yin Scriptures?

Chen Liu continued, "Master was furious and scolded Rong'er. Furious, Rong'er secretly ran away from Peach Blossom Island. Rong'er was quite clever. She knew she was very beautiful, so she disguised herself as a beggar. We met in Xiangyang City. She was broke at the time, so she stole my sachet. After taking my money, she used it to cheat me, so I gave her five taels of gold..."

"Are you that stupid? Giving five taels of gold to a beggar who stole your sachet?" Mei Chaofeng immediately pointed out the problem and said, "You speak clearly and logically, so you don't seem that stupid."

"It's time for the Jianghu to help out in times of trouble. Everyone has their own difficulties." Chen Liu said, "I know the leader of the Beggars' Sect, Qiao Feng, and I know their rules. Beggars' disciples all carry cloth bags, but Rong'er doesn't, so I knew she wasn't from the Beggars' Sect. The Beggars' Sect has a strong sense of territory. If you're not from the Beggars' Sect, you can't even beg for food. At first, I only gave Rong'er five taels of silver, but she said that wasn't enough, so I gave her five taels of gold. Although my family isn't very rich, we still have hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and I'm not short of money anyway."

Mei Chaofeng: ...

Are you Versailles?

"Did you recognize that Junior Sister Rong'er is a girl?" Mei Chaofeng asked.

"That's not the case." Chen Liu complained, "Who could recognize her? Rong'er has a figure as flat as a washboard. It would be a wonder I could recognize her."

Huang Rong:......

Huang Rong almost exploded with anger. In order to deceive Mei Chaofeng, he actually framed her like this. She was not a washboard at all. She also had meat buns, just smaller ones.

Mei Chaofeng seemed to believe Chen Liu's words and couldn't help but smile.

"Because of this incident, Rong'er thought I was quite nice and changed into girl's clothes to meet me. At that time, I couldn't believe that Rong'er was actually a girl, and so beautiful. Senior Sister Mei, do you know?" Chen Liu said, "I was completely stunned at the time."

Mei Chaofeng's smile widened as she asked, "What happened next?"

"Later, Rong'er and I traveled the Jianghu together. We became familiar with each other and even developed feelings for each other. But then Huang Lao Xie, cough, Master suddenly jumped out and tried to break us up, trying to kill me." Even though Mei Chaofeng couldn't see, Chen Liu still looked a little scared. He said, "If Rong'er hadn't threatened to die, Master would have probably beaten me to death."

"Master probably didn't want Rong'er to be sad, so he accepted me as a registered disciple, named Chen Sanfeng, and forcibly brought Rong'er back to Peach Blossom Island. He also gave me a mission, asking me to find Senior Brother Chen and Senior Sister Mei and bring the second half of the Nine Yin Scriptures back to Peach Blossom Island. He then agreed to my relationship with Rong'er."

"For the past six months, I've been searching the Jianghu for Senior Brother Chen and Senior Sister Mei. Two months ago, I finally heard that Senior Sister Mei had been spotted in the desert, so I went there to look for her. But I couldn't find her. Then I met the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan and overheard their conversation. Only then did I learn that Senior Brother Chen had died at the hands of their disciple. That disciple was called Guo Jing..."

"Isn't his name Yang Kang?" Mei Chaofeng was stunned.

"No, my name is Guo Jing."

Chen Liu thought to himself, "Guo Jing is one of the protagonists of this world anyway, so he shouldn't die. In the original novel, he didn't die even after meeting Mei Chaofeng. Even if Mei Chaofeng knew his name, it would be useless."

Huang Rong:......

Mu Nianci: ...

"I originally wanted to avenge Senior Brother Chen, but the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan were so numerous and powerful, and it was rumored that they were about to head to Jiaxing to attend an appointment with Qiu Chuji, one of the Seven Masters of Quanzhen, and they had brought Guo Jing with them into the Great Wall. I couldn't defeat them, so I had to find another plan. Later, I finally heard that Wanyan Honglie, the Prince of Zhao of the Jin Dynasty, had once led an envoy to the desert. I suspected that Senior Sister Mei had followed Wanyan Honglie, so I went to the Prince of Zhao's mansion, hiding in the dark and observing, and that's how I discovered Senior Sister Mei's whereabouts."

Chen Liu's lies were so coherent, with some truth and some lies, that it was difficult for ordinary people to distinguish the truth from the falsehood. Well, at least Mei Chaofeng couldn't tell the difference.

Chapter 84 Mei Chaofeng (Part )

"You are lying!" Mei Chaofeng moved in front of Chen Liu and grabbed his neck.

Mei Chaofeng was a congenitally skilled martial artist, far superior to Chen Liu in martial arts. Furthermore, this place was an underground cave. Although Mei Chaofeng was blind, she had lived there for so long that she was intimately familiar with everything, down to the very last table and the smallest piece of wood. Her sudden attack would have made it difficult for Chen Liu to dodge, even if he had been prepared. Furthermore, Chen Liu had no intention of evading, believing his words, and Mei Chaofeng couldn't tell the difference. However, Chen Liu wasn't completely unprepared. He placed his hand on Mei Chaofeng's, pretending to wrestle with it. If anything went wrong, he would immediately absorb Mei Chaofeng's Qi.

"Mei, Mei, what are you doing? I didn't lie to you. Why are you saying I'm lying?" Mei Chaofeng didn't completely tighten her grip, leaving Chen Liu room to speak. If she wanted to kill him, Chen Liu would immediately stop her. Of course, Chen Liu was taking a risk this time. If Mei Chaofeng refused to listen to his explanation and simply snapped his neck, he would be helpless.

"Tell me, who sent you to steal the Nine Yin Scriptures from me?" Mei Chaofeng asked sternly.

Huang Rong and Mu Nianci were about to jump down the cave in a panic, but when they heard Mei Chaofeng's words, they froze for a moment and quickly stopped. Huang Rong and Mu Nianci thought that Mei Chaofeng had heard Chen Liu's thoughts and that was why she attacked them, but they didn't expect that to be the case.

Huang Rong thought to herself, "It seems that Mei Ruohua can't hear Brother Chen Liu's inner thoughts either. Then who can hear his inner thoughts? What conditions are required to hear Brother Chen Liu's inner thoughts? It is necessary for a character who appears in the original novel to be a woman mentioned by Brother Chen Liu. For example, she, Mu Nianci, Guo Fu and Guo Xiang, as well as Lu Wushuang and Hong Lingbo. But Bao Xiruo also appears in the original novel, but she can't hear it. As for the reason, it is very likely that Bao Xiruo is already married and has a man. And Mei Ruohua can't hear it either. Is it because she is too ugly now? Doesn't meet Brother Chen Liu's aesthetic standards? Or was she in a relationship with Chen Xuanfeng in the past? It is very possible, but there is too little supporting evidence now. We need to find a few more people to experiment."

"Mei, Senior Sister Mei, I didn't lie to you." Chen Liu answered with some difficulty.

"Speak or not!" Mei Chaofeng shouted again.

"I didn't lie to you. What I said was the truth." Chen Liu was still stubborn.

"Since you won't tell me!" Mei Chaofeng sneered twice and tightened her grip a little, "Then you'll die here."

Chen Liu couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Damn, this doesn't make sense. What I wrote should be very reasonable, right? What went wrong?"

Chen Liu felt somewhat helpless. Since it had already come to this, he might as well absorb it. Just as Chen Liu was about to activate the Bei Ming Divine Art to absorb Mei Chaofeng's true energy, Mei Chaofeng suddenly let go of Chen Liu's neck.

Mei Chaofeng suddenly let go, and Chen Liu suddenly fell to the ground, so naturally he could not absorb her true energy.

"Senior Sister?" Chen Liu called out tentatively when he saw Mei Chaofeng suddenly stunned.

Mei Chaofeng was in a daze for a while, then smiled and said, "Junior Brother, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I've been through a very hard time these past few years. I don't dare trust anyone, not even my fellow disciples. I have to be careful."

As Mei Chaofeng spoke, she suddenly burst into tears. The tears flowed from her dark eyes, which was indescribably strange.

Chen Liu:......

Huang Rong:......

Mu Nianci: ...

It turns out to be a test!

"Back then, that thief stole Master's Nine Yin Manual and took me away from Peach Blossom Island."

Mei Chaofeng's face was a little miserable. "After I knew that the thief had stolen Master's Nine Yin Manuals, I was very angry and wanted to go back to apologize to Master, but the thief stopped me. He asked me, 'Thief sister, do you want to die?' I didn't know how to answer. I didn't want to betray Master, but I didn't want to die either. But at that time, I couldn't turn back. I couldn't turn back! Back then, Master loved me the most. The eldest brother and the others were all afraid of Master, but Master never scolded me, not even a harsh word. If there was anything I didn't understand, as long as I asked Master, Master would teach me. Master was very good to me. Master taught me martial arts, reading and writing, and I liked them all. I was very happy on Peach Blossom Island. Even if Master was not available, he would ask the eldest brother to teach me. The eldest brother Qu Lingfeng was a man of both literary and martial arts, and he could also paint. He taught me to read poems and lyrics and explain their meanings.

Once, my senior brother brought me a piece of white paper, on which was written the master's elegant and graceful calligraphy: "Southern willows, their leaves small, not yet forming a shade. At fourteen or fifteen, I leisurely clutched my pipa, seeking out my love. I should have paid attention to you when we met then, let alone now." My face flushed when I saw it, and my heart suddenly began pounding. I was flustered and stood up, wanting to run away. Senior Brother Qu said, "Little Junior Sister, please sit down." I gently asked, "Is this a poem by Master?" Senior Brother Qu replied, "It was written by Master. This is a poem by Ouyang Xiu, not by Master." I breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.

My elder brother said, "According to the literature, Ouyang Xiu was deeply fond of his niece and composed this poem to express his feelings. He saw his niece, then twelve or thirteen, playing a coin-tossing game with her female companions in the hall, chasing them down to the courtyard with laughter and shouting. Ouyang Xiu was captivated by his niece's beauty, liveliness, gentleness, and endearing charm. Later, when his niece was fourteen or fifteen, she became even more beautiful. Ouyang Xiu was already an old man in his fifties, so he had no choice but to 'keep an eye on her.' He sighed and composed this poem. When it was later seen, it caused quite a stir. Ouyang Xiu was a high-ranking official at the time, admired for his virtue and literary talent, and was severely criticized by the imperial censors. Why did Master love this poem so much, writing it over and over again?" My elder brother held a stack of white paper in his left hand and waved it. On each piece of paper was written, 'I paid attention to you when we met, let alone now.' He asked, 'Little Junior Sister, do you understand?' I shook my head and said, 'I don't understand!' 'He came closer and asked again: 'You really don't understand? ' I shook my head. He smiled and said: 'Then why are you blushing? ' I ran away.

Later, the thief came to tease me, and I got along with him. When Master found out about this, he broke Master Qu's legs and sent him back to Lin'an with a mute servant.

From then on, Master stopped talking to me and the thief, and stopped teaching us martial arts. He soon left for Qingyuan Prefecture and Lin'an Prefecture. Two years later, he suddenly returned home with Master's wife. She was very young, the same age as me, and we were both born in the Year of the Monkey. She was incredibly beautiful, with skin as white and tender as milk. No wonder Master loved her so much and often took her out with him…"

Huang Rong:......

Huang Rong is feeling a little devastated now. The image of her father in her mind has collapsed.

Mei Chaofeng was lost in her memoirs, muttering to herself as if she had a mental problem.

Chapter 85 Mei Chaofeng (Part )

Listening to Mei Chaofeng ramble like a nagging wife about her relationship with Huang Yaoshi, her happy life on Peach Blossom Island, how she used the Nine Yin White Bone Claw to kill the Jiang family, the family that had bullied her, and how she killed many of the Jianghu thugs who were pursuing them, even engaging in fierce battles with Lu Chengfeng and Wu Mianfeng, Chen Liu felt a pity for her. This was a good girl, but she had been led astray by the wicked Chen Xuanfeng. However, Mei Chaofeng had killed so many people, earning the reputation of "Iron Corpse" for it. Even if she died, she would have deserved it. Chen Liu felt no sympathy.

Although Mei Chaofeng later said that Huang Yaoshi had no feelings for her, which made Huang Rong, who was eavesdropping outside, secretly relieved, Chen Liu did not believe it.

[Is he really not moved? It's just that Huang Yaoshi is too concerned about his image to admit it. After all, it's not a good reputation to have a crush on a disciple. Otherwise, why would he write that poem?]

Huang Rong:......

Huang Rong was so angry that she wanted to rush down and beat Chen Liu's head off.

"Do you want the Nine Yin Scriptures?" Mei Chaofeng asked.

"No, it's not my wish. This is the task given to me by my master to marry Rong'er." Chen Liu secretly complained in his heart.

[You're still testing me at this time.]

"Yes, it's the task given to you by Master."

"Besides, I have my own martial arts. The most important thing about the Nine Yin Manual is the internal skills in the first volume. Without them, I can't learn many of the martial arts in the second volume." Chen Liu said, "This is what my master told me."

"Now I believe you." Mei Chaofeng said.

"Senior Sister didn't believe me before?"

"Why should I believe you? This is the Nine Yin Manual."

"The Nine Yin Manual is nothing special."

"The Nine Yin Scriptures is nothing special?" Mei Chaofeng's voice became a little sharp. She had spent decades struggling for the second half of the Nine Yin Scriptures, and now Chen Liu was belittling her. How could she not be angry?

"Is it that great? The martial arts I practice are no worse than Jiuyin." Chen Liu said.

"What kind of technique is that?"

"Small Wuxiang Gong."

"Xiao Wuxiang Gong? One of the three great magical skills of Xiaoyao Sect?"

"Senior Sister knows?"

"I've heard Master say that before." Mei Chaofeng suddenly realized something and said, "The three great skills of the Xiaoyao Sect are truly top-notch, especially the Beiming Divine Art, which can absorb a person's true energy for its own use. No wonder Master is willing to marry his Junior Sister to you and accept you into the sect. But aren't you afraid of your Master's resentment for doing this?"

"I don't have a master, and I got the Xiao Wuxiang Gong by accident." Chen Liu said.

"I see." Mei Chaofeng nodded. In fact, when Chen Liu mentioned Zhou Botong, Mei Chaofeng had basically believed Chen Liu. After all, even the Quanzhen Sect didn't know that Zhou Botong was trapped on Peach Blossom Island by Huang Yaoshi, unless he had been to Peach Blossom Island or Huang Rong told him. Mei Chaofeng felt around and took out a piece of human skin, threw it to Chen Liu, and said, "Take it."

"This is?"

"The second half of the Nine Yin Manual you asked for."

"Senior Sister just gave it to me like this?"

"You do not want?"

"Of course I want it."

Chen Liu opened the Nine Yin Scriptures and took a look at it, then directly recorded the Nine Yin Divine Claws, Heart-Destroying Palm, White Python Whip, Spiral Nine Shadows and other martial arts techniques using the system.

What surprised Chen Liu was that, according to the theory, one cannot use martial arts other than the Nine Yin Divine Claws and the Heart-Destroying Palm without knowing the Nine Yin Scriptures, but Chen Liu found that he could actually use the Beiming True Qi to activate them.

【Perhaps this is the system's fault.】

System? What the hell was that? Huang Rong and Mu Nianci were both confused.

"I've memorized these martial arts techniques. Next time I meet Huang Rong, I'll give her this human skin and run away. Even if she finds out I exploited her reputation, I'll still have an explanation, right?"

Huang Rong:......

[We've got the second half of the Nine Yin Scriptures. After we get Mu Nianci, should we go to the Ancient Tomb Sect and take a look? But we have to be careful. Lin Chaoying might still be alive. By then, we won't have the first half of the Nine Yin Scriptures, and she might even kill us.]

Mu Nianci: ...

However, the Tomb Sweep Sect only possesses a partial copy of the Nine Yin Scriptures. To obtain the complete version, one must go to Peach Blossom Island to find Zhou Botong... Well, it seems Wang Chongyang is still alive, which means he also possesses the Nine Yin Scriptures. Perhaps the Nine Yin Scriptures are also in the Great Song Imperial Palace. I doubt the palace doesn't have a copy.

"By the way, Senior Sister Mei, while I was lurking in Prince Zhao's Mansion, I found out that the youngest prince of the Palace, Wanyan Kang, was surnamed Yang, and his real name was Yang Kang. And I once investigated the princess of Prince Zhao's Mansion. Her name was Bao Xiruo, and I learned from her that she was from Niujiazhuang in Lin'an, and her original husband was Yang Tiexin. Yang Tiexin and the father of Guo Jing, who killed Senior Brother Chen, were sworn brothers. When their two families became pregnant at the same time, they agreed that if there was one boy and one girl in the future, they would become husband and wife, if there were two boys, they would become brothers, and if there were two girls, they would become sisters." Chen Liu had already obtained the Nine Yin Scriptures he wanted, and was ready to take Liang Ziweng's precious snake. However, before leaving, Chen Liu was going to dig a trap for Yang Kang.

Although Chen Xuanfeng wasn't killed by Yang Kang, given Mei Chaofeng's current extreme personality, who knows if she'll take her anger out on Yang Kang? Chen Liu couldn't stand Yang Kang's behavior of accepting a traitor as his father. If he were killed by Mei Chaofeng, it would be his bad luck. He was such a wicked man, daring to kill even his own disciples. Why keep him around? Is he even a good friend? Chen Liu would care for Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiruo because of Mu Nianci, but traitors weren't included in that.

"What? How did you find out?" Mei Chaofeng's face changed drastically when he heard that.

Chen Liu curled his lips and said, "Bao Xiruo is so stupid that she always dreams about her ex-husband. So I try to guide her during her dreams, right? For an ordinary woman who wouldn't even kill a chicken, this isn't difficult. I originally wanted to ask her about Senior Sister Mei's whereabouts. But she didn't know anything about Senior Sister Mei, so I managed to get these inside stories from her."

Chen Liu's words were somewhat flawed, but Mei Chaofeng was now consumed by hatred, her mind focused solely on the murderer of her husband, so how could she possibly think beyond that? Furthermore, Chen Liu had no good intentions towards Mei Chaofeng. If she killed Yang Kang, she would likely die. This was the Prince of Zhao's mansion, and she was blind. No matter how skilled she was, she couldn't defeat the numerous guards, not to mention the fact that the Prince of Zhao was not without its experts. With Mei Chaofeng dead, no one would know that she had the Nine Yin Scriptures, and neither would his impersonation of Huang Rong's lover.
