A knife in love

Chapter 1789

Murong Danyan, Wang Xiaoyu and Xiao Dong listened to Li Qiufeng's words, their hearts were filled with surprise and uncertainty, they didn't put the long sword back into the scabbard, but just raised their heads and looked forward.I saw two huge stone gates standing a few feet away, completely sealing the tomb passage.With the light of the blue will-o'-the-wisp, one can see a stone statue on each of the two stone gates.

Li Qiufeng stared at Shimen for a moment, then turned his head and said to everyone: "We have already reached the middle gate, we must be more careful, lest accidents happen due to negligence, but the gain outweighs the loss."

After he finished speaking, he took a deep breath, and then walked cautiously towards Shimen step by step.Qi Jiu and others followed closely behind Li Qiufeng. Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the Shimen, their hearts were full of uneasiness, and they could even hear their own heartbeat clearly.Although it is not too far from the ninth pair of big skulls to the big stone gate, everyone seems to have walked for more than half an hour, and their hands are covered with cold sweat.

Li Qiufeng walked to the two large stone gates, then stopped, and carefully looked at the stone gates and stone statues.I saw that the two stone statues on the stone gate were slightly taller than real people, dressed as generals, with helmets and armour, and their eyebrows and eyes were lifelike.The two stone statues are facing each other from left to right, with their hands in front of each other, leaning on a weapon.

When everyone was approaching the middle gate from the ninth pair of big skulls, the will-o'-the-wisps that originally surrounded them gathered in one place and did not float towards the middle gate.So when everyone arrived at the middle gate, although the blue light from the will-o'-the-wisp could barely reach here, the light was extremely weak.Although I can see the general appearance of the stone gate and the stone statue, I can't see it very clearly.

Seeing this situation, Li Qiufeng drew a torch from his waist with his left hand, and asked Murong Danyan to take out the torch and shake it brightly, and light the torch.Murong Danyan, Wang Xiaoyu and Qi Jiu also lit torches one after another, only Xiao Dong followed Li Qiufeng, but refused to take out the torch and light it.Seeing this situation, Wang Xiaoyu thought to himself, this dog official is mean and shameless, and very stingy, for fear of losing himself, he is reluctant to use the torch, and wants to borrow the light from the torch held by Li Daxia.This bastard is really stingy, bah!

At this time Li Qiufeng, Qi Jiu and Murong Danyan had already gathered in front of the stone gate, carefully inspecting the stone gate and stone statues.Wang Xiaoyu naturally refused to lag behind, and walked quickly to Murong Danyan's side.I saw Murong Danyan pointing to the weapons in the hands of the two stone statues, and said to Li Qiufeng: "Brother Li, the weapons in the hands of the two stone statues are so strange, they look like swords but are not swords, what exactly are they?"

Li Qiufeng hadn't answered yet, but Wang Xiaoyu said excitedly: "Sister Murong, don't you really recognize these two weapons?"

Murong Danyan was startled, turned to look at Wang Xiaoyu, and said, "Yes, I have never seen anyone use such a strange weapon."

When she said this, she paused for a while, seeing Wang Xiaoyu's excited face, she felt a little strange, and then said: "Sister Xiaoyu, don't you know these two strange weapons?"

Wang Xiaoyu looked excited, shook his head and said: "Hehe, Sister Murong, what a coincidence, I really recognize these two weapons. But when we talk about these two weapons, we have to start with these two stone statues. The two generals on the stone gate are the door gods. The one on the left is Yuchi Jingde, and the weapon he uses is a water-milled bamboo-jointed steel whip. The general on the right is of course Qin Shubao. The weapon in his hand is called Wamianjin Mace. Thinking back when 46 friends in Jiajialou became sworn brothers, then Qin Shubao became the second brother of all the heroes..."

Murong Danyan grew up in Murong Villa since he was a child, and rarely went out on weekdays.Even if she wandered outside the village sometimes, she would either follow Murong Qiushui or be accompanied by Murong Danqing.Murong Villa is known as the "No. [-] Villa in the World" and has many rules.Murong Qiushui's martial arts are superb, but he is also a cautious and upright Confucian, who has always dismissed the folk tales of strange powers and chaotic gods.Therefore, although Murong Villa is big, it has never posted any door gods.The books that Murong Danyan usually read are nothing more than Four Books and Five Classics, and there are no idle books like "Shuo Tang".As for watching plays and listening to books, that is something that I dare not even think about.It was not an eye-opener until Murong Danyan sneaked out of Murong Villa half a year ago.However, she didn't know anything about the door god legends that the common people love to hear.As for the steel whip and mace, these two weapons are not the usual weapons used by people in the Jianghu.For hundreds of years, Murong Villa has shocked the world with swordsmanship. Although Murong Qiushui also explained some sword and gun moves to Murong Danyan, he never mentioned steel whip and mace.Therefore, even though Murong Danyan is Murong Qiushui's beloved daughter and has extraordinary knowledge, he doesn't know who the door god is, let alone what weapons the two are good at using.

Wang Xiaoyu grew up in Wangjiazhuang, and Liu Shengdan Mashou adopted her as his daughter in order to hide his identity.Although Wangjiazhuang has a big family and a great business, it is just a local rich man in Dongliao County after all. Wang Xiaoyu is seldom restrained, wandering around every day, very happy.Every New Year's Eve, every household in Wangjiazhuang had to put up door gods and couplets to welcome the old and welcome the new. Naturally, Wang Xiaoyu was very familiar with the door gods.She is also a person who loves the most excitement. When she has nothing to do, she takes her maids and servants to the theaters and teahouses in Dongliao County to watch operas and listen to books.In remote places such as Dongliao County, the people's favorite opera is martial arts.For example, Wang Xiaoyu has watched Tang, Yang Jiajiang, Yue Fei Chuan, Ming Yinglie and other dramas dozens of times, and she can sing many of the dramas by herself.As for listening to books in teahouses, Wang Xiaoyu also often brought out money to ask the storyteller to tell her the story of Qin Shubaoyi and Bo Yuntian, so he knew the deeds and weapons of Yuchi Jingde and Qin Shubao clearly. The legend and weapon of the door god, Wang Xiaoyu is naturally a treasure.

Ever since Wang Xiaoyu and Murong Danyan got acquainted, Murong Danyan has always been the one who reasoned with Wang Xiaoyu, which made Wang Xiaoyu admire Murong Danyan very much. But she is ten times a hundred times taller than me, and I am extremely envious.Unexpectedly, Murong Danyan didn't know who the door god was today, and he didn't even know the weapons in their hands. Wang Xiaoyu was extremely proud, thinking that he could finally tell Sister Murong something she didn't know.So she eloquently told Murong Danyan the deeds of Yuchi Jingde and Qin Shubao.The more Wang Xiaoyu talked, the more excited he became, and at the end he even sang: "... this one has phoenix eyes facing the sky and the stars are afraid, and the other one is surrounded by sunshine and moonlight. He was originally a hero. , to be the gate god forever. Hey... ah..."

Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan, Qi Jiu and Xiao Dong were all stunned when they saw Wang Xiaoyu dancing and dancing about the door god story, thinking that Miss Wang knew so many folk tales.Both Li Qiufeng and Qi Jiu are people who like to listen to books. They both thought that Wang Xiaoyu would only mess around and get into trouble, but at this time, listening to her singing operas and telling stories, they felt quite close, as if they were in a teahouse again In the wine shop, I was leisurely listening to Mr. Shu talking about ancient storytelling.

Xiao Dong stood aside, seeing Wang Xiaoyu dancing and talking nonsense, he felt impatient.Thinking to himself that murderous intentions are everywhere, this stinky girl is talking nonsense here.Not only did Li and Qi not scold the stinky girl, but they listened with gusto.These bastards and men are extremely bastards, I don't want to get entangled with them here.

Thinking of this, he coughed dryly, and said in his mouth: "Miss Wang's words made us suddenly understand, and Xiao admired it. But since we have reached the middle gate, I would like to ask Mr. Li to show us how to proceed next."
