Zongwu: Our Rivers and Lakes

Chapter 145 Ancient Tomb Gatekeeper
Seeing that he drank all the tea but did not show any abnormality, Li Mochou was surprised.

Long Peng looked calm, looked at the snowflakes outside the window, and said in a deep voice, "Senior Sister, I don't hide anymore, how is my sister?"

"Giggle..."

Li Mochou lowered her head, pretending to be a lady, she covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, her laughter was delicate and sweet.

"Junior Brother, you are asking the wrong person. You know that Senior Sister has long been expelled from the ancient tomb by Master and her old man. I don't even know where the authority to enter the ancient tomb is. How can I get in?"

"Since you can't get in, how can you see my junior sister?"

"Ah……"

Long Peng chuckled twice, "Then why did Senior Sister come here?"

Li Mochou shook her head and sighed, "Good junior brother, senior sister is forced to do so, you don't know, two or three years ago, those self-proclaimed righteous martial arts people in the southern rivers and lakes started chasing and killing your senior sister, and senior sister was also forced to do so helplessly. The one who just left Chixia Village is now wandering around, it's very pitiful..."

"Senior Sister, do you think I'm still so easy to fool, Junior Brother? How dare I chase you down just by relying on those worthless gangs of wine bags and rice bags? If I chase you, I will chase you for two or three years?"

Li Mochou's sad expression slowly dissipated and turned into her usual coldness.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Long Peng stood up, bent down and poured her a cup of hot tea, and said with a smile, "Senior sister, let me tell you a secret."

"You said."

Long Peng nodded with a smile, and sighed, "The last time I went back to the ancient tomb, I secretly replaced the "Jade Heart Sutra" in my sister's hand, that is to say, the "Jade Heart Sutra" that my sister is practicing now is fake. Yes, I guess she still doesn't know..."

"After all, Sister is such an honest person. The master said that she should take over the position of head to watch the training. She just obeyed..."

Li Mochou's pupils contracted violently, she stood up abruptly, and slapped the table violently.

"What did you say!!"

"Sister, do you believe this?"

Long Peng spread out his hands, with an innocent expression on his face, "It's fine if you don't believe it, Junior Brother has something to do here, so I won't accompany you!"

"stop!"

Li Mochou shouted coldly, and strode out violently. With the flow of true energy, the whisk in her hand seemed to turn into a sharp sword at this moment, and it went straight to the back of the dragon pendant, unstoppable.

"Senior sister, why are you doing this?"

With a helpless expression, Long Peng made a move towards the window, and suddenly the wind blew up, thousands of snowflakes poured into the room, and the surrounding area suddenly became colder by several degrees.

hum-

The sword rises and the dragon cries.

A long sword of ice and snow appeared, and the radiant sword energy cut countless sword marks in the house.

"Go!"

With a swing of his sword, Long Peng knocked off Li Mochou's fly whisk, then leaned forward and grabbed Li Mochou's throat with one hand.

Li Mochou has been in the Jianghu for more than ten years, so she is not an ordinary person, so she tore the cabinet next to her and threw it out.

Bang-! !

The wooden cabinet shattered, and Long Peng sideways avoided the sharp fingers piercing his eyes, and immediately grabbed Li Mochou's wrist with a "golden silk wrapping wrist".

"Grapper?"

"It's just a little bit of trickery, senior sister laughed at me."

Li Mochou sneered, and as she waved her sleeves, she heard the sound of "咻——", and some silver lights appeared under the sleeves.

Of course.

As soon as the cold light approached the palm of Long Peng, it was thrown out by the protective zhenqi, piercing Li Mochou's shoulder in an instant, and the moment she lost her mind, the long sword of ice and snow had already pressed down on her neck .

"Senior Sister, I'm sorry, you 'Ice Soul Silver Needle', Junior Brother, I have already prepared myself..."

The cold poison of the ice soul silver needle is extremely overbearing.

Li Mochou felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar on the spot, feeling uncomfortable all over, she sarcastically said, "Junior brother is very capable..."

Long Peng didn't change his expression, he smiled and said, "Senior Sister, I'm overwhelmed."

"Hmph! Men in the world don't have a single good thing. I should have strangled you to save you from today's disaster!" Li Mochou said coldly.

Long Peng's eyes trembled slightly, he took the grimace mask from his waist and put it on, and threw the long sword of ice and snow casually. With a thought, the long sword shattered and turned into a vast expanse of snow.

"Senior sister, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."

"Well……"

Li Mochou gritted her teeth and pulled out a few "Ice Soul Silver Needles" on her shoulders, then quickly took out the antidote from her bosom and took it, only then did she feel better, she watched the back of the dragon pendant disappearing around the corner, Clenching his fists, he slumped down on the chair while thinking about it.

"Master really raised a white-eyed wolf, and my junior sister is really pitiful, she was cheated by two men one after another..."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

As she spoke, Li Mochou probably thought of herself more than ten years ago, her eyes turned red and moist.

It was snowing outside the house, the sky and the earth were frosty, and the Taoist nun inside seemed to be crying and laughing.

A little teardrop fell.

……

"Master, master, you were talking to my little uncle..."

Hong Lingbo was holding a steamed bun wrapped in oil paper in his arms, and was eating happily. After seeing the mess in the room, his expression froze immediately.

"This... this... Master, are you okay?"

Hong Lingbo rushed in quickly, with concern and fear in his eyes.

Li Mochou's mood fluctuated greatly, and Hong Lingbo was naturally aware of this.

She was also afraid that Li Mochou would vent her anger on her.

"Ling Bo, come here..."

"Oh……"

Hong Lingbo approached cautiously, bent down and lowered his head to face Li Mochou.

Li Mochou caressed Hong Lingbo's cheek, her expression softened imperceptibly, but disappeared in an instant, returning to ice-coldness.

"Ling Bo, remember, if you dare to marry someone, my teacher will definitely give you a big gift."

Hong Lingbo wanted to cry but had no tears, his heart was beating wildly, and he quickly began to show his loyalty.

"The disciple is loyal to the master and has no second thoughts. How could he marry?"

"Master, don't worry, even if all the beautiful men in this world come to pursue this disciple, this disciple will never even have the slightest thought of marrying someone! He will only stay with Master wholeheartedly!"

……

Hong Lingbo expressed his loyalty without repetition, Li Mochou's face became darker and darker, but his mood improved a lot.

"Okay, stop talking, it's too noisy!"

"Oh……"

Hong Lingbo talked about his head, wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked behind Li Mochou, pressed her shoulder, and asked cautiously, "Master, what just happened just now? Did Little Martial Uncle make you angry?" Already!!"

"Shut up! Don't mention this white-eyed wolf again!!"

Hong Lingbo shuddered in fright, feeling wronged in his heart, at this moment he heard only the knock on the door of "Du, Du, Du".

Standing outside the door was a woman in black with a graceful figure and a beautiful appearance. A golden hairpin pinned to her hair gave off a faint cold light, like a cold light on the edge of a sword.

"Your Majesty's subordinate, Jin Feng, have met Li Xiangu and Hong Xiangu, please ask Hong Xiangu to follow me, Da Keqing wants to see you." Jin Feng cupped her hands.

"This……"

Hong Lingbo was at a loss for a moment, looked at Li Mochou, and whispered, "What should Master do? Should I go?"

Li Mochou sneered, stood up, and was about to speak when she saw black figures standing outside the window, she couldn't speak anymore, feeling very aggrieved for no reason.

"Hong Xiangu, please."

"Master..."

Li Mochou closed her eyes, turned around, "Your own business, what do you ask me for?"

Hong Lingbo's expression brightened, he hugged the bag of steamed stuffed buns on the table again, and immediately said, "Let's go."

"plz follow me."

When the crowd had left, Li Mochou turned around, her pretty face was frosty, her brows were dark, and she was extremely glamorous, "This traitor..."

……

dong dong dong...

Jinfeng knocked on the door.

"My dear guest, this subordinate has brought you someone."

"Let her in."

"Yes!"

Jinfeng pushed open the door, "Hong Xiangu, please come in."

Hong Lingbo nodded in particular satisfaction, strode into the room, and said with a smile, "Little uncle, what do you want from me!?"

"Oh~"

Long Peng chuckled a few times, sat opposite her, and poured a bowl of hot tea for her, "Are you familiar with it?"

"Hey hey hey..."

Hong Lingbo smiled, and passed the steaming steamed buns in his arms, "Uncle, do you want to eat steamed buns?"

"Okay, here are two."

"okay."

Long Peng ate the steamed stuffed bun, and said, "Lingbo, my uncle won't talk nonsense with you anymore, tell me, did you and your master go to the ancient tomb of Zhongnan Mountain in August?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Hong Lingbo's eyes widened, as if she was choking on her throat, she coughed violently, and it took a long time for her to calm down, but at this moment, she was no longer as casual as when she first entered the door, but rather flustered.

"Little...little uncle... how do you know?"

"Guess,"

Long Peng smiled, knocked on the tea bowl in front of her, and said with a gentle smile, "Don't just eat steamed stuffed buns, come, drink tea, moisten your throat."

"Little...Little Martial Uncle..."

Looking at the bowl of hot tea, Hong Lingbo wanted to cry, but with a sad face, "It's all master's idea, I will never dare again, don't kill me."

"I'm still a girl with yellow flowers, I'm still so young, I'm not married yet, I can't die..."

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die..."

……

"stop!!"

Long Peng covered his ears, a little speechless, "Who said he was going to kill you?"

Hong Lingbo's tears suddenly stopped.

"What do you mean, little uncle?"

"I just want to ask you, you and my senior sister, what happened in the Zhongnan ancient tomb? Tell me exactly."

Long Peng turned the tea cover and closed his phoenix eyes, "However, if you dare to lie to me, the consequences..."

"Don't worry, little uncle, I guarantee that I know everything and say everything, if there is even half a lie, I will be struck by lightning and die badly!"

Seeing the tea cover that gradually turned into a ball of powder, Hong Lingbo swallowed twice, and immediately made a heavy oath.

"It's better to be obedient."

Long Peng nodded in satisfaction, raised his head and smiled, "Okay, you can start talking now."

"Yes!"

Hong Lingbo raised his hands and said hastily, "That day was the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Master took me into the ancient tomb. As soon as I entered, I saw a young man. He was born with the appearance of a young man. That's a pretty one." , Junior Martial Uncle, let me tell you, that young man has delicate features, red lips and white teeth..."

Long Peng's face darkened slightly, and he knocked on the table, "Get to the point!!"

"Oh oh oh..."

Hong Lingbo shrank his neck, and continued, "That young man is Yang Guo, he is the apprentice of my uncle, his martial arts are pretty good, of course he can't compare with you..."

……

About half an hour passed before Hong Lingbo revealed everything.

"Little Martial Uncle, I've finished talking about everything, take a look, there's nothing to do, the disciple will leave first."

Hong Lingbo stood up cautiously, glanced at the cold-eyed Long Peng, and was stopped by him just as he lifted his feet.

"Wait a moment!"

Hong Lingbo froze, and immediately stood upright, "Little Uncle, what other orders do you have?"

"Go and memorize the lightness kung fu that's on my desk, and you can run away when you meet someone you can't beat."

Hong Lingbo was stunned for a moment, and walked to the desk, "Meteor catches the moon...Little Martial Uncle, is this for me?"

"Um……"

Long Peng nodded, waited for Hong Lingbo to recite the lightness kung fu, and then continued, "There is also the copy of Shaolin's "Great Mercy and Great Compassion Qianye Hand" next to it. Take it and give it to your master."

"Oh……"

Hong Lingbo nodded, she was completely puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask, "Then...then I'll be leaving..."

"Wait a minute, when your master asks later, he will say that I used this martial arts book to bribe you and let you monitor her."

"what?"

Hong Lingbo was stunned for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Why?"

"Why do you ask so many questions? Hurry up and leave!"

"Remember, act better, otherwise your master will see the flaws, and she will definitely take your skin off."

Hong Lingbo was stunned for a moment, and after thinking of Li Mochou's suspicious character, his heart shuddered.

"I see!"

"You go, remember to close the door!"

"Oh, good good..."

Hong Lingbo bent over and closed the door lightly, glanced furtively at Long Peng, and left quickly, his heart beating fast.

In the room, there was only Long Peng left. He stared at the flying snow outside the window in a daze, his eyes were absent-minded, and he spoke after a long time.

"Tie Niu, let Ah Lang come to see me!"

"Yes!"

Tieniu's naive voice came from outside the door, and soon a young man with a scar on his face entered the room.

"Your Excellency..."

Long Peng turned around and walked in front of him, "Ah Lang, is there anyone from us near Piaomiao Peak in Tianshan Mountain?"

"This... Tianshan Misty Peak is located in Xixia Kingdom, the western part of the capital, with a radius of a hundred miles is the boundary of the Vulture Palace. The owner of the Vulture Palace, Tianshan Child Elder is particularly xenophobic. Don't talk about our people, just do it with them Even the Mingjiao of the neighbors can’t get close.”

"Is that so..."

Long Peng nodded, and paced back and forth in the room for a while, "It doesn't matter, you first send someone, in my name, to send some gifts over, and then send a greeting note, saying that I will visit Child Elder some day .”

"Subordinates obey."

A Lang nodded, hesitated for a while, and replied, "However, dear guest, our place is far away from Tianshan Mountain. Even if the golden eagle can travel thousands of miles a day, it will take nearly ten days to deliver it. And our people in Xixia want to go It takes five days to travel day and night to Tianshan Mountain, and it will take at least a month to get a reply."

"It's okay, let's talk about it first."

Long Peng rubbed his temples gently, "Okay, step back and let me be quiet."

"Yes!"
