Lu Xiao is naturally a human being, so after Jin Jiuling came to his senses, he was no longer afraid. He was just curious and curious as to why Lu Xiao treated him like this.
At first, he thought Lu Xiao wanted to help him. But how could that person be forced into a desperate situation and then recruit others to do it?
"Why do we have any hatred? Why do you want to do this to me? My martial arts skills are superb, so if you want revenge, just kill me. Why do you torture me like this?"
"Torture you? No, you misunderstood. The ancients said that when heaven is about to entrust a great task to a person, he must first suffer his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his skin, deplete his body, and mess up his actions. Therefore,
Tempting one's heart and forbearing can help you achieve what you can't do. Why can't you regard all this as a test for you?"
"Test? Now I have lost everything, my rights, my reputation, and even my martial arts skills are probably not worth mentioning in front of you. Will this test of mine make me lose everything in the end?"
"It's too early to say that everything has been lost. The game has just begun. You will be handed over to Prince Pingnan's Mansion soon, and that's your chance."
"King Pingnan wants to peel off my skin and cramp me, what chance do I have?"
"Haha, Jin Jiuling. Don't be carried away by anger. I can tell you a key piece of information now. The treasures found in your room are all fake."
"It's impossible that my people have checked it. Everything is true..." Jin Jiuling subconsciously wanted to refute, but he stopped mid-sentence because he realized a problem. He didn't know Lu Xiao until now.
means. What you think is impossible may not be anything at all in the eyes of the other party.
"What do you want?"
Jin Jiuling knew that the other party had made an offer, but he was still not sure what the other party wanted?
"You don't have to worry about what I want. You just need to know that I have done many things to you. These things can drive you into the abyss and never recover, but they can also make you come back to the next level. Whatever you want, just see
It’s your own choice.”
Jin Jiuling understood what Lu Xiao meant. He thought for a moment and then asked.
"You want me to enter Pingnan Palace? What do you need me to do?"
"You see, you have already started on the road. King Pingnan is planning a big event. The wealth he has accumulated over the years is prepared for this big event. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for outsiders to get involved in this matter, but if
Someone helped him retrieve these things..."
Jin Jiuling understood what Lu Xiao meant. It was not him who was planning the plan, but King Pingnan.
Knowing this true resemblance, Jin Jiuling even felt disappointed.
After all, in his opinion, Lu Xiao was plotting against him, and he must be planning something big for him. As long as he didn't die, he might be able to negotiate terms.
But now it seems that the other party has never really cared about him, and only uses himself as a springboard to plot against King Nan.
Jin Jiuling, who knew that he was not that important, suddenly felt disappointed. If Lu Xiao knew his mood, he would find that Jin Jiuling was inadvertently cheated by him.
"If the things in my secret room are fake, where are they really?"
"It's really up to you to find it yourself. I've left clues for you. After all, people generally don't pay attention to things that are obtained for nothing. As for how to find it, it depends on your level. I believe you will
Let King Pingnan take a look at you."
Jin Jiuling took a deep look at Lu Xiao. With his IQ, how could he not guess what King Pingnan wanted to do?
After all, for a person of Ping Nanwen's status, there is only one thing left in this world that requires him to spend a lot of time planning.
Jin Jiuling bent down gently.
"I have met the Lord."
"Very good." Lu Xiao had no intention of using the life and death talisman to control Jin Jiuling.
For a smart man like Jin Jiuling, facing a crushing figure like Lu Xiao, he would not betray at will until he is completely sure.
Just when Lu Xiao sent Jin Jiuling into Prince Pingnan's palace, there was another person who was also struggling with Prince Pingnan's affairs.
The man had a white face and a slight beard, and was wearing a snow-white robe. His eyes looked like two cold stars in the darkness.
His face is very white, neither pale nor pale, but a color as clear and translucent as white jade.
His eyes were not dark, but they were terrifyingly bright, like two cold stars. On his dark hair, he wore a beaded crown of sandalwood, and the clothes on his body were as white as snow. He walked very slowly.
, when I walked up, it was like a king walking into his palace, and like a flying fairy from the sky descending to the world.
His name is Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City in Nanhai Feixian. He is one of the strongest swordsmen in the world, and he is said to be unstoppable with his one move of Feixian.
Everyone in the world knows about the swordsmanship for which Ye Gucheng became famous, but few people know that his life experience is extremely complicated.
Just like his appearance, Ye Gucheng is indeed a royal relative, but a remnant of the previous dynasty.
He was able to survive and even achieve his current achievements because there was a big shot in the court who kept his name. This man was King Pingnan.
Therefore, it was difficult for Ye Gucheng to refuse King Pingnan's request.
For a swordsman, participating in rebellion is undoubtedly a betrayal of his own swordsmanship. But neither he nor Baiyun City can reject the powerful King Pingnan.
So Ye Gucheng finally made a decision that went against his heart and personally helped King Pingnan complete his great cause.
And just when Ye Gucheng entered Prince Pingnan's palace as the kendo teacher of Prince Pingnan.
Lu Xiaofeng finally came back. Not only did he come back, he also brought dozens of the top masters in the world, ready to subdue Lu Xiao in one fell swoop.
But after returning, Lu Xiaofeng heard a piece of news that shocked him. That was that the case between the Zhiyuan Escort Bureau and the Pingnan Palace had been solved.
The person who solved the case was Jin Jiuling, the best arrester of the day. It is said that the murderer used part of the treasure to frame Jin Jiuling and put him in jail.
But the murderer was too greedy. After framing Jin Jiuling, he used fake treasures in exchange for the part that he really wanted to take away in one go.
It was this greed that allowed Jin Jiuling to seize the opportunity and successfully catch the opponent's tail.
It is said that Jin Jiuling fought with that mysterious gang many times. Even many disciples of Pingnan Palace came to help, and finally regained most of the treasure. However, those mysterious people disappeared without a trace.
However, although he did not give full credit, King Pingnan was still very satisfied with Jin Jiuling.
It is said that during the entire showdown, everyone in Pingnan Palace was tricked by the murderer. If Jin Jiuling hadn't seen through the opponent's plan many times, the murderers would have disappeared without a trace with the treasure.
And in the end, the reason why we didn't do our best was because the people from Prince Pingnan's Mansion held back and allowed the other party to escape.
For this reason, King Pingnan greatly admired Jin Jiuling. It is said that he personally hosted a banquet and chatted with him all night. After that, Jin Jiuling resigned from the post of head catcher of the six gates and became the general manager of Pingnan Palace. As for the original general manager Jiang Chongwei, he naturally felt this I have no objection at all. After all, I lost the thing in my hand, and Jin Jiuling found it. How can I have the face to continue to be the general manager?
Lu Xiaofeng was silent for a long time after listening to the whole story.
Based on his IQ, it is not difficult to guess that Jin Jiuling has fallen in love with Lu Xiao.
It's just that he doesn't understand why.
How could someone as proud as Jin Jiuling surrender to another person so easily?
At this time, Hua Manlou came over and handed Lu Xiaofeng a glass of wine.
Lu Xiaofeng took it blankly.
"Can't you understand?" Hua Manlou asked.
"Yes, I don't even want to believe this is true."
"It's a pity that this is true. I have told you before, Lu Xiaofeng and Lu Xiao are very scary."
"Yes, but I didn't expect that someone like Jin Jiuling..."
But this time Hua Man Lou interrupted him.
"Do you think you know Jin Jiuling?"
"...I thought I understood him before, but now I realize that I may have never understood him."
"No, Lu Xiaofeng. As a friend, I have something I have wanted to say to you for a long time. Why not take this opportunity to say it.
You never know anyone. Because you are not like anyone else. Let me ask you a question, Lu Xiaofeng. Do you have a goal? Or is there something you particularly want to do? "
"I really want to expose Lu Xiao's true face now."
"This is not a goal, this is the pressure feedback Lu Xiao brings to you. I have a goal. I hope that all my relatives, friends, and even other passers-by can be happy.
This goal is not imposed on me by anyone, it is what I want. And I have been working hard for it. What about you, Lu Xiaofeng? Do you have one that does not involve anyone else, but comes from your own heart? One thing?”
This question stunned Lu Xiaofeng. He had never thought about this kind of question, that's right, he had never thought about it.
He is a person who is very afraid of trouble, but at the same time, he is also a person who is particularly prone to getting into trouble. So he always has a lot of things to do. Even in his short free period, he lies in the brothel and gets drunk. He never thinks about this kind of pain. Problems of the mind.
Now that Hua Manlou asked, he thought: Yes, what do I want?
When he was young, he wanted to be famous in the world. Now he has achieved it. Lu Xiaofeng, who has four eyebrows, is known to everyone in the world.
Second, after this, he has been pushed by Jianghu and moved forward passively.
"Look, Lu Xiaofeng, this is why you can't understand. You are different from others. You lack a goal in your heart, and you still think that others are the same as you.
But the fact is, everyone has what they desire. I have it, and so does Jin Jiuling. You can’t understand why Jin Jiuling turned to Lu Xiao. It’s very simple, because Lu Xiao can give Jin Jiuling what he wants.”
"Can he give you what you want too?"
"Not now, but maybe in the future."
Lu Xiaofeng left a little dejected. He still had things to do.
After all, he had tricked so many reputable people into coming to help, and now that he had lost the reason to take action, he couldn't just drive them all back in one sentence.
In desperation, Lu Xiaofeng had no choice but to host a banquet at the best restaurant in the capital to entertain her group of friends. The group got drunk all night and then prepared to go their separate ways.
But at this time, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly felt something was wrong. Because many people were walking in the wrong direction.
They did not leave the city, but went in a somewhat familiar direction.
Lu Xiaofeng felt excited and quickly followed. Then she saw at least 60% to 70% of her friends walking into Lu Xiao's small building.
At that moment, Lu Xiaofeng just hoped that she was still drunk.
Ever since he found out about the people he had brought to deal with Lu Xiao, they all turned to Lu Xiao inexplicably for some reason, and directly chose to lie down.
He couldn't understand why those people gave in so easily.
If Lu Xiao were here, he would tell him that most people in this world only seek martial arts, status, and wealth.
Generally speaking, if your martial arts skills are high, your status will naturally be high, and if your status is high, you will naturally have money.
But the sad thing is that martial arts are secret no matter which world they are in. There are few people in this world who have just entered the martial arts world and have Lu Xiaofeng's unparalleled light kung fu, as well as his Lingxi Yi Finger, which is said to be able to clamp the world's weapons between two people.
In fact, 90% of people in the martial arts world have been fighting martial arts at the level of Five Tigers Broken Gate Sword and Taizu Changquan all their lives.
It's just that Lu Xiaofeng only associates with upper-class people in the martial arts world, so he rarely pays attention to this issue.
Even the friends he found were all well-known masters in the world. But they were obviously not as good as Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue.
And now that we have reached this point, who doesn’t want to go further?
They couldn't enter because they didn't have the opportunity. But Lu Xiao's appearance gave them this opportunity.
In his previous life, Lu Xiao integrated martial arts from all over the world and deduced the patterns on the stone wall of Lingjiu Palace. He mastered countless magical skills.
The key is that Lu Xiao doesn't care about these things. In the eyes of others, he regards them as treasures, magic secrets that are enough to be passed down to the family, and he gives them away as soon as he wants. Who can bear such behavior?
As time passed day by day, Lu Xiao also took some time to fulfill a recent agreement to help Hua Manlou recover her eyes.
This is not a simple thing. The main reason is that Hua Manlou has been blind for too long.
That's why Lu Xiao used the secret method of Lingjiu Palace to nourish his eyes first. After awakening some peripheral nerves, he began to treat them.
The whole process is long and painful. Huamanlou needs to learn a special inner skill method to transform the true energy in the body, make it softer, and then penetrate into the eyes bit by bit.
At the same time, Lu Xiao used surgery to remove the injured part of the eye and then allowed his eyes to repair themselves.
This technique actually goes beyond the scope of ordinary martial arts. This was one of the reasons why Lu Xiao originally believed that the predecessor of Lingjiu Palace had a background in cultivating immortals.
It's just that Lu Xiao's whole life of deduction has only restored part of it, and most of the rest are too incomplete to be deduced. There are also some results that Lu Xiao can't use.
That's right, it just can't be used. With Lu Xiao's current cultivation level, he can't use it. That's why Lu Xiao pursues further steps.
This goes a step further and is an idea Lu Xiao had many years ago.
