【Kuan Xin】Snake and Venom

Spring goes to winter, summer is lonely and autumn is in full swing, with a slight blink of an eye by others, two Chinese years have passed. , Walking and walking, although things are different, there are still some beautiful faces.

Some people, some things, once decided, there will be no change in the task for a lifetime.

It was night, the setting sun was like blood, the vastness, and the unwavering sky seemed to be cut open by the twilight, and the wisps of orange and red were like ink, slowly flowing in the slightly dim night, towards the horizon The four corners spread, and the curling corners of the setting sun inadvertently tore open the veil covering the cold moon. The cool and bright light blended with the bewitching colors. Suddenly, the sky was really beautiful.

In the city of Kaifeng, four teams of horses and horses were dressed in the smoky moon, soaked in the unique coolness of summer nights, riding their horses and whips in the sparsely populated streets and alleys. It is not messy, adding a bit of tension and uneasiness to the leisurely moonlit night.

There is only one destination for the four teams, and that is the secret pavilion located in the center of Kaifeng City. Among the seven fastings, one person is waiting for their return, and they will fight against the wind for the last time.

As soon as Wei Yanei arrived at the gate of the secret pavilion, he couldn't wait to jump off his horse, and ran into the secret pavilion excitedly, shouting excitedly: "Qizhai! Wang Kuan! Banjin! I'm finally back! I haven't come out to meet me yet! "

The other students in the Secret Pavilion heard the sound and looked at Wei Yanei who was shouting with curiosity and a little disgust.

Xue Ying, who was following behind him, rolled his eyes, helped his forehead helplessly, jumped off the horse, and tied the horse to the side of the gate. Suddenly, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he said lightly: "Stop shouting, someone is older than us." arrive."

Wei Yanei frowned and glanced at the few horses that he hadn't paid attention to just now, and said dissatisfiedly: "Who! Dare to line up in front of me!"

I thought that he and Xue Ying would be the first to return to the secret pavilion, but whoever imagined, someone made it there first.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came, with a bit of arrogance and ridicule in his tone: "Why are you dissatisfied with this girl in front of you, or do you think that if you wiped out two poisonous nests, you will be invincible in the world?"

Looking at the source of the sound, there were three people who came, Zhao Jian who was in full swing, Xiao Jing who was smiling, and An Lijiu who was calmly smiling.

Xiao Jing happily ran up: "Yanei, Xue Ying! Long time no see!"

Wei Yanei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he reunited with his friend whom he hadn't seen for two years. He immediately felt relieved, and the smile on his face couldn't be stopped. He looked up his head quite proudly: "You're wrong, no? Two, three, before we left for Kaifeng, Xue Ying and I wiped out another poison nest in the Nanling area."

An Lijiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said appreciatively: "It's quite capable, three poisonous nests, yes, at least much better than I imagined."

Wei Yanei snorted and said angrily, "Brother An, how many more poison nests have you eliminated?"

Zhao Jian was the first to answer, with a proud look on his face: "No more, no less, exactly five."

Wei Yanei grinned: "It's not fair, you have Big Brother An and Big Brother Shen, and I only have Xue Ying and the old thief's bunch of rogues, there's no comparison!"

An Lijiu blinked, watching the excitement was no big deal, he pretended to be exaggerated and said: "Brother Xue Ying, he actually despises you in the Yamen, do you want to beat him up?"

Xue Ying glanced at Wei Yanei lightly, and the other party was honest instantly. Wei Yanei pulled Xue Ying's sleeve with a smile: "Xue Ying, I don't dislike you. Brother An is stirring up trouble. Let's go home and not get along with the bad old man." Play."

An Lijiu narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a warning in his voice: "Who are you calling bad old man?"

Just when Wei Ya Nei was about to open his mouth to refute back, another familiar and hearty voice came: "I haven't seen you in two years, Mr. Wei is still alive and kicking like this, thinking that this task of exterminating the poison nest is simply too much for Mr. Wei." It's easy."

The five looked at the door together, only to see Yuan Boji, Fan Zaizhi and others walking slowly.

Wei Yanei and Zhao Jian looked happy, and shouted in unison: "Father!"

Xue Ying, Xiao Jing and An Lijiu nodded slightly to the adults as a salute.

Wei Yanei asked curiously: "Father, how many poison nests have you eliminated?"

There was a faint smile between Wei Zhuoran's eyebrows, but it was inaudible. He said slowly, "Three."

Zhao Jian immediately looked at Fan Zaizhi and Yuan Bofin, blinked his eyes and waited for their answer, Yuan Bofin smiled helplessly, and gave the answer straightforwardly: "There are three of us too."

Xiaojing immediately smiled, and exclaimed joyfully: "Sister Zhao, we wiped out the most!"

Wang Shenzheng shook his head angrily, and Baba said, "Have you forgotten someone?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Wang Kuan also participated in the task of exterminating the poisonous nest.

Two years ago today, Wang Kuan said that those 21 poisonous lairs and 76 secret rebel officials would be strangled one by one. Now, two years have passed, and Wang Kuan wrote on time to ask them to return to Kaifeng, which means that the 21 poisonous officials The nests have been wiped out, and the task is basically completed.

When it was time to part, Wang Kuan left all the manpower of An Lijiu and the old thief to Zhao Jian and Wei Zhuoran, but he only had thirty new private soldiers from Banqiao Town.

That is to say, Wang Kuan strangled all six poisonous nests within two years almost by himself alone, without leaving any wildfire, and cutting grass and roots without any survivors.

Wei Yanei swallowed his saliva, and stammered, "That guy Wang Kuan is so good, he's almost insane."

Wang Shenzheng glanced at Wei Yanei dumbly, his eyes seemed to say, "How dare you call my son a pervert".

Yuan Bofin looked around at the students of the secret pavilion who were gathering more and more together, and suggested: "Let's talk about it first, Wang Kuan is probably already waiting for us inside."

Zhao Jian and his party nodded and walked in the direction of Qi Zhai.

However, until they entered the main hall of Qizhai, the crowd still couldn't see Wang Kuan's figure. Just when they were puzzled, Ban Jin, whom they hadn't seen for a long time, suddenly ran into the main hall, and before they had time to play coquettishly with Wei Yanei and the others, It was already biting the hem of Zhao Jian's clothes, dragging it all the way, as if it wanted to take Zhao Jian and others somewhere.

Zhao Jian and the others looked at each other in surprise, followed Ban Jin obediently out of the main hall and into the backyard.

As soon as they walked into the backyard and saw the scene in front of them clearly, everyone was stunned.

On the huge open space, there is a huge ancient bronze clock. A thick red cloth covers the top of the bronze clock heavily. The bright red bursts out of the gate in the darkness, like ghosts and gods coming out of the world. .

A young man with a body as tall as bamboo and a face like a crown of jade stood on the side of the bronze bell. His figure was straight and slender, and he stood silently with his hands behind his back. He was dressed in a black gold silk embroidered robe. Looking from afar, although he could not see With a clear face, it is cold and gloomy everywhere. Under the background of the black robe, the young man almost blends into the dark night. He seems to be born in the most extreme and pure chaos in the world, and he is in the endless darkness. There are dazzling bright red dotted with sporadic stars for him.

He is frighteningly repressed, but at the same time extremely seductive because of his unparalleled red color, people can't help but get close to him.

Banjin was not afraid of the oppressive and gloomy young man, ran straight over, licked the back of the young man's hand familiarly, and kept kissing his waist with his big, thick head.

Wang Kuan lowered his eyes slightly, patted Banjin's head, and then looked at Zhao Jian and the others with clear and sharp eyes. His eyes flickered and were dim and unclear. They are all back, how about accompanying me to the Meng Mansion with a congratulatory gift?"

The backs of everyone's necks felt chills, and their scalps felt numb looking at Wang Kuan like this.

If Wang Kuan two years ago hadn't really released the tyranny in his heart, then he still knew how to restrain himself, but now, when Wang Kuan released all the demons trapped in the cage, he had already changed. With a look of cruelty, cruelty and determination, facing his enemy, he doesn't know what etiquette is.

Like now, Wang Kuan's every word is soaked in the bottomless murderous thoughts, quenching the poison, and if he is a little careless, he will die.

Wang Kuan then lowered his eyes and smiled lightly, his tone was divided and cold. Although he smiled, there was no smile in his eyes: "I have wanted to give this gift for a long time——Meng Fuzai's birthday is over, why should I?" Can you go and have a look?"

Meng Tianyang's mansion in the east of Kaifeng was celebrating his birthday. Logically speaking, Meng Tianyang was only 39 years old. In terms of birthdays, he was still far behind. , and "sent" away Yuan Zhongxin who had been spoiling his good deeds before. He was so happy that his head was dizzy that he held his 39th birthday banquet for three full days, and invited all kinds of relatives, friends and good friends with him. Official Merchant.

Meng Tianyang was drinking fine wine and chatting with Chang Yi, and accidentally glanced at the charming dancing girl waving her sleeves, feeling very happy, suddenly, the door of the Meng Mansion, which was concealed, was violently kicked open, and there was a loud noise, and she was so frightened that she fainted The drowsy Meng Tianyang immediately fell off the master's chair.

Before he even had time to ask questions, he saw Wang Kuan and others rushing straight into the main hall of the Meng Mansion, and the last few Xuanwu soldiers in the row were carrying a huge monster that they didn't know what it was, and it hit the ground heavily with a loud sound. The melodious bell rang loudly.

Meng Tianyang's face turned pale and pale, and his heart boiled with anger. He pointed at Wang Kuan and shouted angrily, "Wang Kuan! What are you doing!"

Wang Kuan stared at Meng Tianyang sternly, he sneered coldly, and glanced meaningfully at the panicked guests around him: "What are you doing? How can I not come to give gifts to Mr. Meng's 39th birthday party——Come here, let Mr. Meng take a closer look." Look, what kind of gift did I find for him!"

The Xuanwu soldiers understood what they said, and the two leaders pulled apart the heavy red cloth with tacit understanding, and a big bronze bell with a height of seven feet appeared in everyone's field of vision!

Meng Tianyang's face turned pale immediately, and he couldn't rest in anger. With murderous eyes, he gouged out Wang Kuan who was calm and calm, and he screamed sharply: "Wang Kuan! You gave me a green bell on my birthday! What do you mean!"

The smile on the corner of Wang Kuan's mouth gradually deepened, and even the hostility that had been suppressed in his heart suddenly burst out. He walked a few steps unhurriedly, and a solemn voice sounded: "What do you mean? Master Meng, I'm here to see you off." , what do you mean by asking me?"

Meng Tianyang was so angry that his heart ached, he covered his chest, stared at Wang Kuan with scarlet eyes, unable to say a word.

Wang Kuan didn't care at all, he picked up the wine jug on the table beside him and poured out three glasses of sake. He smiled brilliantly, but exuded a terror that was so frightening that he didn't dare to move around at will. Curiously said: "Master Meng, why don't you eat it, don't stop, if you don't eat it now, you won't have this chance in the future."

While speaking, Wang Kuan poured one cup after another of sake on the ground with his bony fingers. He didn't finish pouring, and there was still one third of the cup left.

Everyone was horrified, watching Wang Kuan's actions with their hearts pounding.

Three cups of sake, one for the heavens, one for the ground, one for the souls of the dead, leaving only half a cent in the cups, this is a custom that should only be present when respecting the dead!
