Chapter 73 Black Fire Stone Order (1)

  What a coincidence! This Liu Guan Jia, although not as hateful as Zheng Fu Guan, is also someone Xiao Yao wants to take revenge on. As soon as she saw it was Liu Guan Jia, her heart suddenly felt pleased and she hummed twice, walking up to him with a mocking tone, asking: "What are you doing here?"

  Liu Guan's mouth was gagged with a cloth strip, unable to speak, and he looked at Huo Xiao with a pleading expression.

  Huo Xiao Xie smiled and untied the cloth strip from Liu Guan's mouth. Liu Guan took a deep breath and repeatedly said, "Good man saved my life, good man saved my life!"

  "Who's a good man? Who wants to save you? I'd rather ask you, what are you doing here?"

  Liu Guan said: "Good fellow, good fellow, do you recognize me?" Huo Xiao's makeup was still on his face, and he was dressed in a debauched young master's attire. Liu Guan estimated that he wouldn't be recognized at once.

  Huo Xiao Xie said: "Of course I know you, Liu the steward of Zhang Siye's mansion! Anyone with some influence in Fengtian City knows you."

  "Good fellow," said Liu Guan, "since you know me, save me and I will reward you handsomely!"

  "Who allowed you to give rewards? Who wants your stinky money? First, tell me how you ended up here and what's going on?"

  Liu Guan's family helplessly said: "I brought the servants out to do something, just finished, on the way back, I was inexplicably beaten unconscious, tied up and thrown here, otherwise I don't know anything."

  Huǒ Xiǎo Yī Xīn Zhōng Yǐn Yǐn Jué Dé Bù Miào, Lián Máng Wèn Dào: "Nǐ Dào Zhè Ge Piān Pì De Lín Zǐ Lǐ Bà Nǎ Me Shì?"

  Translation:

  Huoxiao felt a sense of foreboding in his heart and hastily asked, "What brings you to this secluded forest?"

  "Good fellow, I have no grudge against you, so let's not ask such detailed questions. First, release me and I'll tell you everything clearly. You know I'm Liu Guan Jia from the Zhang Si Ye Fu, so help me out. What do you want? Just say it."

  A slap landed on Liu Guan's face, and he cursed: "Old turtle, I'm looking for you! Speak up! What did you come to the forest for? If you don't speak up, others may not have killed you, but I'll still make you die!"

  His eyes gleamed with a fierce light, his teeth clenched, and Liu Guan's family knew he wasn't joking around. Hurriedly, he said: "Good fellow, good fellow, I'll say it, I'll say it."

  "Then say it!"

  "Good fellow, this is actually a private matter of our Zhang Siye's household, something that can't be exposed to the light. If you want to know, I'll tell you."

  "Cut to the chase!"

  "We came out to bury three dead men."

  Huo Xiao'e's eyes widened as he heard this, his mind buzzing with confusion. He grabbed Liu Guan's clothes and glared at him menacingly: "Three dead people! Which three dead people?"

  "Good fellow, don't be like this. I'm telling you, I'm telling you, three little thieves were caught at Zhang Siye's mansion, and they accidentally killed them in a fit of rage. Zhang Siye was afraid of trouble, so he ordered me to secretly bury the bodies in this forest."

  "What, what kind of three little thieves, called, called what name." Huo Xiao Xie's voice was trembling.

  "They were all around 15 or 16 years old, names... I only remember one called Lang Deben."

  Huoxiao Zhe's whole body trembled, and he loosened the collar of Liu Guan's clothes. He turned around, lowered his head, tears welled up in his eyes, and bit his lips tightly, his heart aching like a knife cut.

  Liu Guan's family said awkwardly: "Good fellow, I've told you the truth, absolutely no falsehood! Good fellow, what I said are things that can't be seen in Zhang Siye's house, and have nothing to do with me... Good fellow, save me, let's talk it over."

  "Damn it, I'm going to kill you!" he roared, pulling out the sharp knife that Water Demon had given him from his pocket. He pressed Liu's head down with one hand and raised the knife high, ready to end Liu's life with a single slash.

  Liu Guan's voice trembled: "Good fellow, I didn't lie! Spare my life!"

  "You are a thief, not a killer, you are a thief, not a killer, you are a thief, not a killer. I have always regretted it, extremely regretted it; I have always regretted it, extremely regretted it; I have always regretted it, extremely regretted it; I have always regretted it, extremely regretted it."

  Huǒ Xiǎo Yè's heart was screaming: "Shuǐ Yāo ér, it's not that I don't listen to you, but I hate, I hate!"

  Huǒ Xiǎo Yī couldn't care about so much anymore, raised his knife and was about to stab down, slaughter this Liu Guān Jiā!

  "Hehehe, I told you to come with me, I can help you, right? Hehehe." A soft and gentle woman's laughter came from the woods.

  Huǒ Xiǎo Yī Ngà, the knife was raised in mid-air without stabbing down. With a sudden reversal of hands, the knife was held in front of his chest, fully alert and cautious. Slowly standing up, he shouted towards the direction where the laughter came from: "Who are you? Come out!"

  A white figure flashed in the woods, and a woman in white walked out of the darkness. It was the "female ghost" that Huo Xiaoxiao had been chasing all along. However, this time, the woman in white did not have her hair scattered, but instead had it tied up, revealing a pretty face, smiling with an extraordinary charm, which didn't look like a female ghost at all, but rather like a celestial being descending to the mortal world.

  Huǒ Xiǎo Yé borrowed the moonlight to see the woman's appearance, and was stunned at once, softly calling out: "Shuǐ Yāo ér, how is it you..."

  The woman in white covered her mouth and smiled lightly, walking towards Huo Xiao with a gentle swaying motion. She said: "Do I look like the Water Fairy? Is she usually this way?"

  Huǒ Xiǎo Xié looked at the white-clothed woman and thought of Shuǐ Yāo ér's ever-changing appearance, still thinking it was Shuǐ Yāo ér playing a trick on him. He said: "Shuǐ Yāo ér, what are you up to now?"

  The woman in white smiled softly and said, "Alright alright, I am indeed the Water Demoness. Huo Xiao Xie, I think I quite like you, so I'm willing to help you, you should thank me."

  This woman indeed looked exactly like Shuǐ Yāoér, but her demeanor and temperament, as well as the tone of her speech, were gentle with a hint of seductiveness. Although Shuǐ Yāoér was unpredictable in front of Huǒ Xiǎo Xié, she had never been like this before.

  A spark of evil intent in his heart suddenly chilled him. He became vigilant: "Who are you, anyway? Don't come any closer! Halt! If you take another step forward, I won't be polite!"

  The woman in white stood still, smiling sweetly: "How can you be so fierce? I brought you all the way here with great difficulty, let you find Liu Guan's house, and let you know what you wanted to know. You didn't even say thank you, but instead drew your sword? Ah, I'm really heartbroken."

  Huǒ Xiǎo Xié Hěn Dào: "Nǐ zhè ge yāo jīng, bú yào zhuāng chéng shuǐ yāo ér de yàng zi!"

  Translation:

  Huo Xiao Xie said: "You this demon, don't pretend to be a water demon child!"

  The woman in white laughed and said: "One mouthful of water monster, the water monster's, no wonder the water monster is willing to be with you, you are indeed likable."

  Huǒ Xiǎo Xié held a knife and slowly backed away, this white-clothed woman, if it were daytime, would truly have the charm to captivate thousands of men. However, in Huǒ Xiǎo Xié's eyes, she seemed as terrifying as a deep poisonous pit.

  The woman in white laughed and said, "What? Afraid of me? Isn't it just a water demon? Really, with the water demon like that, I think I can change if I want to, isn't that right?" The woman in white turned her face away, then turned back, with a mischievous expression, shouting: "Fire Little Evil, I am the Water Demon! I told you not to leave your room, but you didn't listen! Now you've tasted the consequences, let me teach you a lesson, so you'll remember next time."

  Huǒ Xiǎo Yè really is bewildered, isn't this just Shuǐ Yāo ér's usual appearance?
