I am a head catcher at six doors

Chapter 121

Lu Yao stayed in Peach Blossom Castle for a full month. After spring, the temperature picked up quickly, and the peach blossoms in Peach Blossom Castle began to bloom one after another.

Not only the peach blossoms, but even the flowers in the courtyard of Huamanlou are competing for beauty.

And when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, Hua Ruling's birthday is also coming as promised.

Lu Yao has been staying in Peach Blossom Castle as a friend of Huamanlou, and the only people who know his true identity are Huamanlou and Huaping.

Even Hua Ruling didn't know about it.

And the recent events in Jianghu were also sent by Hua Ping to Lu Yao's hands.

In the past two months, the women in the rivers and lakes can be said to have gone completely crazy.

One by one, they flocked desperately to the capital, wandering outside the six doors all day, just hoping to see Lu Yao.

But the six doors said to the outside world that Lu Yao had retreated.

As for how long it will take to retreat, they don't know.

But how could these women give up so easily, almost all of them lived in major restaurants and inns in the capital.

Judging from the posture, it seems that as long as Lu Yao doesn't show up for a day, they don't plan to leave for a day.

Huamanlou also left Peach Blossom Castle the day before Hua Ruling's birthday.

Lu Yao knew that he was going to see Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Yao, who stayed in Peach Blossom Castle, was not in a hurry, anyway, the two of them would come back sooner or later.

In a gazebo by the lake, there are willows and willows, caressed by the spring breeze, and the sound of the piano.

Huamanlou in the gazebo caressed the guqin, playing a piece that sounded melodious, but contained a sense of helplessness.

Until the end of the song, the sparrows on the willows flew up one after another.

Footsteps came from outside the gazebo, Lu Xiaofeng stepped forward slowly and said, "I can't even bear to disturb the sparrows, as expected of the building full of flowers."

"Come here uninvited, eavesdropping behind your back, it must be Lu Xiaofeng."

Hua Manlou smiled and stood up.

"Hua Man Lou, you invited me, why should I eavesdrop?"

"People who don't have complete pentatonic notes and don't know how to play the qin, why should I ask you to listen to the qin?"

"It doesn't matter whether you listen to the piano or not, the key depends on whether you invite people to drink!"

"There is good wine, but I only invite friends."

"It's a good thing you have friends, otherwise drinking alone would be really suffocating."

"Anyway, with you here, I'm afraid I won't be bored for the rest of my life."

As soon as the words finished, Lu Xiaofeng laughed first, Hua Manlou also smiled and shook his folding fan lightly, without saying anything.

Lu Xiaofeng put away his jokes and asked curiously: "Your father's [-]th birthday is coming soon, Huamanlou you are not at home to prepare, why are you coming out to hide and relax?"

Hua Manlou put away the guqin, wrapped it in silk, put it on his back, picked up the folding fan beside him and said with a smile: "Of course someone will prepare for the birthday banquet, even if the Hua family is busy, it will not be my turn Worry, but you, have you received the invitation?"

"I'm wandering in the clouds and wild cranes, and I don't have a fixed place to live. Who can deliver the invitation to me?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "Furthermore, didn't I come to look for you, am I afraid that I won't be able to attend the birthday banquet if I follow you?"

"You have a good nose, you came to me following the smell of wine."

Hua Manlou shook his head lightly, and said, "But this time you came just in time, this time the banquet is at home, let's go there together, and there is an old friend waiting."

For your old friend he said, Lu Xiaofeng probably guessed who it was.

Apart from Lu Yao, he really couldn't think of anyone else.

But now so many women in the Jianghu are looking for Lu Yao, even some of his friends are the same.

Does Lu Yao dare to show up in a big way?
"Hey, by the way, Huamanlou, although I don't know the melody, I can still hear the lament in your piano sound. What's wrong? Is there something that upset you?"

As one of Huamanlou's few friends, Lu Xiaofeng asked with great concern.

Hearing Lu Xiaofeng's question, Hua Manlou hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, it's just the tune."

As far as Hua Manlou was concerned, he said that he didn't care about blindness, but he knew very well in his heart that his family cared about his affairs very much.

That's why he played the piano alone in the gazebo.

The two walked forward together, and saw Hua Ping coming in a gorgeous carriage.

"Call-"

Hua Ping, holding the rein, stopped the carriage, jumped down and said, "Master, master asked me to pick you up."

"Hua Ping? Didn't you say that I will go back by myself?" Hua Manlou asked with some doubts.

"Master said that the birthday banquet will be held at Yuxiu Villa, so I came here to pick you up." Hua Ping hastily explained.

Hua Manlou and Lu Xiaofeng didn't think much, they got into the carriage together.

Hua Ping drove the horse outside and went straight to Yuxiu Villa.

On the way, he said to the inside of the carriage: "Master, the master said that there is something left for you under the seat, please remember to open it."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou reached out and groped under the position he had made.

Then I saw him take out a delicate wooden box.

Seeing that he was about to reach out to open it, Lu Xiaofeng felt uncomfortable, and hurriedly said: "Don't open it!"

But he still said it was a step too late.

After the wooden box was opened, a circle of white smoke slowly floated out, and was immediately inhaled by the two of them.

In the middle of the move!
Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou were shocked, but it was too late.

Under the influence of the smoke, the two soon passed out completely and fell into the carriage.

I don't know how much time passed, Lu Xiaofeng woke up first, and when he was about to wake Hua Manlou, he heard footsteps outside the door, and he closed his eyes again and pretended to be unconscious.

Hua Ping came in with a small porcelain bottle, and was about to relieve Lu Xiaofeng of the effect of the smoke.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaofeng had already woken up, grabbed his hand violently, jumped up, covered his mouth and dragged him outside.

Outside the house, Lu Xiaofeng pushed Hua Ping back against the fence, and asked in a cold voice, "Say, who told you to do this?"

Hua Ping didn't dare to talk too much, he endured the pain and didn't open his mouth.

Seeing how tough he was, Lu Xiaofeng was about to use tough methods when he was interrupted by a shout.

"My nephew!"

Looking back, I saw that Hua Ruling had come, and there was an elderly man beside him.

"Uncle Hua?"

"Mr. Medicine Man Song?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked at the two of them in surprise, and understood what was going on.

But why did Hua Ruling give her son Huaman downstairs medicine?

Picture what?
Song Wencao cupped his hands with a smile, and said, "I don't dare to be called Yaoxia. I do have a few medicine pots, so feel free to find me if you have a headache."

Lu Xiaofeng glanced at the porcelain vase he had snatched from Hua Ping in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "So this is the antidote?"

"Not bad!"

Just when Song Wencao smiled and nodded in recognition, Hua Ruling also spoke at this time.

"Nephew, this is not a place to talk, please follow me."

After Hua Ruling said that, she walked out first, followed by Song Wencao.

Seeing that the two of them had already left, Lu Xiaofeng also followed with doubts, wanting to see what was going on.

Hua Ruling brought Lu Xiaofeng to a side room, there were already many people sitting there.

Seeing them coming, everyone in the room stood up one after another.

"Heh, the seniors of the five sects are all here, and Hawkeye's seventh brother is also there!"

When Lu Xiaofeng saw people he knew, he raised his hands and cupped his fists to meet everyone.

Eagle-eyed Seventh, who didn't have a single hair on his head, patted himself on the head, stood up with a smile, and said, "Lu Xiaofeng didn't expect that, did he?"

"Everyone, which song is this?" Lu Xiaofeng asked, spreading his hands.

Hua Ruling explained: "Lu Xiaofeng, you must be wondering why I invited you in this way?"

Lu Xiaofeng frowned and said with a smile: "I may not know anything else, but it must have something to do with Huamanlou, otherwise you wouldn't have kept it from him."

Seeing that Lu Xiaofeng already knew about it, everyone nodded.

They did this to hide Hua ManLou's knowledge, which Hua Ruling confessed on purpose.

Hua Ruling at the side sighed, stepped forward and said, "Nephew, do you know how Lou Er's eyes are blind?"

"Didn't you get sick when you were young?" Lu Xiaofeng frowned.

"No."

Hua Ruling shook her head, and said in a deep voice, "Lou'er's eyes are all because of the Iron Shoes Bandit."

Iron shoe thief?

Lu Xiaofeng knew a little about this name.

The iron-shoe bandit who ran rampant in the Central Plains back then committed many crimes overnight and disappeared, causing many people in the world to die tragically.

In the end, it was Hua Ruling who invited many fellows from the rivers and lakes to kill them.

The people who shot back then seemed to be the ones in front of them.

"No, but isn't he already dead?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Hua Ruling in bewilderment, and asked: "Uncle, you came forward to kill him with the help of several seniors, so he didn't die that year."

"died!"

Hua Ruling said in a deep voice: "But Lou'er always thinks that he is not dead, and this has become a piece of his heart."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng heard the piano played by Hua Manlou that he had heard before.

If Hua Manlou had a demon in his heart, then the sound of the piano would not be surprising.

The shadow of childhood may really affect a person's life.

It's no wonder that Hua Ruling wanted to hide it from Hua Manlou.

"But what is uncle looking for me for?" Lu Xiaofeng looked at them suspiciously, it seemed that there was some important matter to be entrusted to him.

As a smart person, he is very aware of the situation of these old foxes.

"This is really the reason why we came to you. I was seriously ill a few years ago, and I am lucky to survive until now. Like me, Hua Ruling, who has lived an upright life, although I have no regrets in dying, the only thing I can't let go of is Lou'er's inner demons. .”

Hua Ruling looked at Lu Xiaofeng and said: "This time we came to you, and we also hope that your friends in Lou'er can help us, pretending to be iron shoes, and let Lou'er kill the iron shoe thief in public! Of course, all of this is It was arranged by us, you don't have to worry about anything, just follow the plan."

"Wait, uncle, did you misunderstand something? I didn't say I would help."

Lu Xiaofeng turned around and said, "Furthermore, I am not the only friend of Hua Manlou. Lu Yao has a much better relationship with him than I do. Why don't you contact him?"

Hearing this, Hawkeye Lao Qi cursed and said: "Lu Yao is being watched by a group of women now, how can he have the time to help? Didn't you realize that we are asking for you?"
