Qingling Punishing Heart

Chapter 21 Losing and Winning

"Could it be that there are master foxes in Shen Kingdom?"

Su Ji muttered in a low voice, feeling that a lot of things about Mr. Fox, he, Mr. Fox, didn't know, it seemed that the whole world knew.He frowned, put down his chopsticks, and asked:
"What is the origin of this fox master you are talking about?"

"His surname is Mo, and his name is a unique character. There is a saying that if you are good, you lose, and if you are evil, you win. Entering the territory of Shen Kingdom, whoever has ears doesn't know the names of Mo Shu and Jiang Ying?"

Listening to the implication of hindsight, it seems that Su Ji's ears have grown in vain.Su Ji didn't show any anger, because the way of speaking after the fact along the way has always been to restrain the desire and first to raise, flattering first, and then firing to hurt others.

Ordinary people can be stunned by his words, and a few shots in a row will definitely be hit by thunder, and the outside will be tender, but Su Ji thinks, this is no wonder, who told him to be an afterthought?

"I, Chaoge fox master, have you Shen people heard of it?" Su Ji asked tentatively.

"The young one is from the Shen Kingdom, at least the young one has heard of it." Afterwards, he took a sip of his wine and said, "The young one has traveled many lands in the past and found a lot of fox masters like you."

"Are you trying to say that I am a fake fox master?"

Su Ji's tone became a little excited.He could hear it in hindsight, and he knew what was wrong with his speech, but he just couldn't control it.He poured a glass of wine for Su Ji, and said with a haha:

"I didn't say it's bad to be fake, but there is only one real Fox Master."

"You want to say that only that Mo Shu is the real Fox Master?"

"You've asked a good question, but from what you've asked, I'm sure you don't know the origin of the word "Master Hu". Master is the honorific name given to Mo Shu by the people of the Shen Kingdom, and the word "hu" represents the identity of the head teacher of the Xuanhu Sect. To tell you something you don't like to hear, you have only been a fox master for a few years? What magical powers do you have?"

The tone of hindsight didn't mean the slightest bit of ridicule. What he said might be true, but these words entered Su Ji's ears and turned into negation, even insult.

Su Ji smiled lightly and did not answer.

No one is willing to accept the negation of others, and Su Ji is the same.He didn't want to believe everything he heard, not a word of it.He even considered venting his anger by overturning the table.Su Ji would have done this nine years ago. When he got angry before, no matter how many people were around him or what was on the table, he would have to find out.

However, Su Ji is sitting peacefully now.Whether it was true or not, he listened to these harsh words abruptly.

At that moment, Su Ji felt that he had changed. The self he was nine years ago would never be as calm as he is today.

At this time, his calm intuition told him that fate made another joke, and only by playing along the way can he know the truth of everything.

He remembered that the man in white had ridiculed him that he was only fit to be a monster's plaything, and now he fully understood the meaning of this sentence.It turns out that Mr. Fox is not a person, let alone a god, but a group of pawns manipulated by evildoers.

Who is that Mo Shu?

Is he one of these pawns?
Or the chess player?
Su Ji downed the remaining half pot of spirits in one gulp, and asked with a feeling of drunkenness:

"That fox master named Mo Shu is so famous? How come the people of Chaoge have never heard of it?"

"The current Chaoge was built from the ruins, and it is no longer the ancient capital of the former dynasty. The sages have all gone to Haojing and other places, and the people left behind are seldom-seen city residents. Besides, Mo Shu's style is low-key, It's not surprising that you haven't heard of him, but I'm sure you haven't heard of his wife."

"Master Fox still has a wife?"

"Yes, and you must have heard of it."

"Who?"

"Li Rumei!"

"You're talking about the most prostitute in the world, Li Rumei?"

"That's right, but now you'd better not call her that, because she is now the wife of Mo Shu Mingmei. If you are interested in her, here is a good thing..."

After speaking, Hindsight took out a package full of tortoise shells from his luggage and put it on the table, put his mouth close to Su Ji's ear, and said in a low voice:

"The tortoise shell is engraved with "Rumei Forbidden Biography", and it is written with some romantic jokes. It is fate that we travel thousands of miles, and the small one will only charge you five silver shells."

"So you still sell books!"

"It's not easy for a small business. If you are willing to join me, let me tell you about Jiang Ying. When you first arrive in Pingyang, it may be difficult for you to live a day if you don't know this person."

Gradually, Su Ji slapped the last silver shell on his body on the table as the feeling of drunkenness gradually came up.

Hindsight lowered his voice and continued:
"Speaking of Jiang Ying, every time I am on tenterhooks. I dare not say more about him, I can only tell you two things at most."

"Those two things?"

"First, he is Shenhou's eldest son; second, he dislikes typing the most. If someone accidentally mentions typing in front of him, even if he just reads the sound, he will lose his head!"

"Then Mo Shu didn't bother with his taboo?"

"That's right. Since Shen Hou's disappearance, the Jiang clan of Shen Guo and Xuanhu's Mo family have been fighting tit for tat for the position of leader. The people are all looking forward to it. Mo Shu must not lose, and Jiang Ying must not win. However , anyone who dared to provoke Jiang Ying died one by one. If you have time, you can go to the Dongshi Execution Ground. The stones there were gray ten years ago, but now they have been dyed earthy red. Listen to a jerk The hand said that in the past few months, seven of the ghost knives used in executions have been blunted."

"Marquis Shen is not only the lord of the country, but also the lord of the sect. Jiang Ying, the eldest son, should inherit everything. What qualifications does Mo Shu have?"

"Shenhou just happens to have two identities. The leader of the Jiejiao is not necessarily a prince. He can command the Western Rong people, and his status is higher than that of the local princes! The leaders of all dynasties were elected by the 25 elders of the Jiejiao. The eldest son In order to lure these veterans into the bait, Jiang Ying threatened whoever could help him get the position of leader, and betrothed his only daughter to him. Unexpectedly, this trick actually caught a few big fish vying to help him, but unfortunately now They're all dead fish."

"Then Jiang Ying's daughter must be beautiful?"

"Beautiful! Of course beautiful. But I just saw a woman who is more beautiful than her!"

Su Ji was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked, "Who did you see when you tied the horse just now?"

"I saw a woman in white clothes like snow, wearing a green bamboo hat with a curtain on her head, and a mahogany sword hanging from her waist."

Su Ji was startled suddenly.The figure of the girl in white flashed in his mind.He quickly expelled that thought, and asked in a suspicious tone:

"She wears a bamboo hat with a curtain, how do you know she is beautiful?"

Hindsight patted his chest and said seriously:
"I really saw it, and even drew her." As he spoke, he began to grope around his body, but he couldn't find anything after groping for a long time. Finally, his eyes fell on the package on the table, with an expression of enlightenment on his face ,road:

"I remembered! I just painted on the tortoise shells that I sold you just now."

Su Ji casually took out a piece of tortoise shell and took a look.Seeing this was no small matter, it was as if he had been hit by a spell of immobilization, and he couldn't use any strength!
Look at the picture on the tortoise shell?There is not even a word that can be understood by people, only dense tadpole writing.

"Fixed spell?" Su Ji exclaimed.

From the arrangement of the tadpole characters, he could see that those tortoise shells were spells of teaching.Now except for his mouth, he couldn't even lift a finger.The whole person is fixed on the chair like a stone statue.

"Master, save me!" A panicked and immature voice came from outside the door.

Hua Rulang ran in, followed by a gust of wind.

The wind blows a white figure.The figure didn't make a sound, and appeared behind Hua Rulang like a ghost.It was none other than the girl in white who had fainted in Qingling Temple before.

The girl in white took out a silver shell from her sleeve and handed it to Hindsight.

Hindsight repeatedly waved his hands and said:

"You don't need to pay, you just need to let me take that fat old man in the car away."

"You're pretty good at doing business." The girl in white glanced at him and took the money back.

Seeing the scene where these two people met, Hua Rulang suddenly remembered that it was the girl in white who stopped the carriage on the day he was apprenticed, and suddenly realized that the encounter between these two people that day was not a coincidence.

"It's an afterthought move. You played this move very well. But if you don't do it... it will be a dead move."

The sudden sentence caused the two people beside them to exchange glances in a daze.

Afterwards Pao was puzzled, but there was no trace of fear on Su Ji's face, only a meaningful smile.
