This extraordinary woman was ultimately poisoned to death in an attempt to save her beloved.
And on her deathbed, she cleverly devised a plan to help her lover eliminate several powerful enemies.
Her death saddened and mourned countless people, drawing many tears...
"Is it them?"
Chen Yan was somewhat uncertain.
The young man in front of me looks similar to Hu Fei in the original novel—handsome, dashing, and heroic.
The girl in front of them was much more beautiful than Cheng Lingsu in the original novel.
While she wouldn't be considered stunningly beautiful, she was at least somewhat pretty and possessed a distinctive charm that grew on you over time.
Chen Yan's first impression was that the girl was Cheng Lingsu.
It was because of the girl's eyes.
Those were a pair of incredibly bright and intelligent eyes, as if they could shine in the darkness, making them unforgettable at first glance.
13 Thinking of this, Chen Yan originally wanted to take out the Yin-Yang Mirror to confirm the identities of the two people.
At this time.
The man and woman standing in front of the fortune-telling shop took the initiative to bow and introduce themselves.
The young man clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, saying, "Master Chen, I am Hu Fei, from Daqing."
The young woman also cupped her hands in greeting, displaying a free and easy demeanor that was in no way inferior to Hu Fei beside her.
She introduced herself: "Master Chen, I am Cheng Lingsu, a descendant of the Poison Hand Medicine King, and also a member of the Great Qing..."
After listening to their self-introductions.
A smile appeared on Chen Yan's lips.
Very good, it seems my first instinct was right. The young man and woman in front of me are indeed Hu Fei and Cheng Lingsu...
Exclamations of surprise came from all around.
Hu Fei is now quite well-known in the martial arts world of Daqing.
Although Cheng Lingsu was not well-known, her title as a disciple of the "Poisonous Hand Medicine King" made her someone no one dared to underestimate.
Throughout history, those who use poison have been the most feared figures in the martial arts world, capable of killing silently and inspiring awe in all...
Wanwan seemed to have a good impression of Cheng Lingsu, a graceful and poised young woman, and was worried that they might not know the proper etiquette since they had come all the way from Daqing.
He took two steps forward, smiled, and greeted them, "Young hero, young lady, do you have any questions for our shopkeeper?"
Two conditions must be met according to the rules..."
"Thank you, sister. We've heard a lot about Master Chen on our way here, and we know the rules of the fortune-telling shop."
Cheng Lingsu smiled and thanked her gratefully.
then,
He stepped forward, took out a silver ingot, and placed it on the counter.
She reached out her delicate hand, intending to draw a condition from the wooden box.
"Second sister, let me do it."
Seeing this, Hu Fei quickly stepped forward to stop him.
At this time, he and Cheng Lingsu had already become sworn brothers and sisters, so he called Cheng Lingsu his second sister.
Hu Fei grinned, looking somewhat carefree, and patted his chest, saying, "Big brother, I'm not afraid of losing face. It doesn't matter if I draw an embarrassing condition."
Second sister, you're a girl, how can I let you take the lead in something like this?
"Thank you, brother."
Cheng Lingsu's eyes brightened slightly, a bright light flashing in their depths...
"This girl probably has a deep affection for this sworn brother."
Wanwan, Wuqing, and Shi Feixuan are all experienced people now, and they easily noticed the emotion hidden in Cheng Lingsu's eyes.
But the oblivious Hu Fei was completely unaware.
He reached into the wooden box and pulled out a slip of paper.
Despite his nonchalant demeanor, he was actually quite anxious inside.
He didn't want to wear women's clothing, and he certainly didn't want to recite any of those "arrogant quotes" in front of so many people; it would be really embarrassing.
"Big brother, what did you draw?"
Cheng Lingsu leaned closer with concern.
Hu Fei grinned, took a deep breath, and opened the note.
Looking at the blank slip of paper.
They looked at each other and let out a long sigh of relief.
Many people around sighed in disappointment, having missed another chance to watch a good show...
"Brother, ask the question that's been bothering you."
Cheng Lingsu didn't care about what others thought; she only had eyes for Hu Fei and gently reminded him.
"Ah."
Hu Fei nodded.
Then, she turned around and faced Chen Yan.
After pondering for a moment, he took out another silver ingot, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Chen Yan, and said in a deep voice, "Master Chen, I have two questions I would like to ask you."
The first question is, where is the villain Feng Tiannan hiding now?
The second question is, how exactly did I, my father Hu Yidao, die back then?!
After asking these two questions.
Hu Fei's face was solemn, his eyes filled with intense hope as he stared unblinkingly at Chen Yan.
My heart was filled with both trepidation and longing; I desperately wanted to know the answers to these two questions.
Exclamations of surprise came from all around.
Only then did everyone realize that Hu Fei was actually the son of Hu Yidao, the "Great Hero of Liaodong".
Back then, Hu Yidao and Miao Renfeng were considered the strongest masters in the martial arts world of Daqing, and they fought several times without a clear winner.
But later, Hu Yidao died without knowing why.
This is also one of the biggest unsolved mysteries in the world of Daqing Jianghu.
As for Feng Tiannan, he was a heinous tyrant in Daqing. Hu Fei hated evil and vowed to kill him to rid the people of this scourge.
But Feng Nantian was very cunning and went into hiding, which is why Hu Fei was so eager to know where he was hiding...
Faced with Hu Fei's doubts.
Chen Yan calmly took a sip of tea, slowly put the teacup down, then looked at Hu Fei with a slight smile and responded.
"Let's answer Hu Fei's first question first."
"If you want to find the notorious villain Feng Tiannan, go to the capital of Daqing. He will naturally appear once you arrive."
Hu Fei was taken aback, puzzled.
Feng Tiannan was terrified that he would kill him. How could Feng Tiannan appear on his own when he arrived in the capital?
Chen Yan: "Feng Tiannan is afraid that you will kill him, so he sought out many military officers in the capital to befriend you, hoping to sow discord between you two. That's why he took the initiative to appear."
After a pause,
Chen Yan then answered Hu Fei's second question: "Hu Fei, the cause of death of your father, 'Great Hero of Liaodong' Hu Yidao, is also very simple."
Back then, right after your mother gave birth to you, Miao Renfeng, Tian Guinong, and others rushed over, wanting to settle their fated grudges with your father and fight to the death.
But after several encounters.
Miao Renfeng and Hu Yidao, as top swordsmen and knife-wielders in the Great Qing Jianghu, actually found themselves kindred spirits and began to appreciate each other, becoming close friends and neither of them could bear to kill the other.
Tian Guinong, feeling resentful, poisoned their knives.
At last.
Miao Renfeng accidentally cut your father's arm, and your father eventually died of poisoning..."
After Chen Yan recounted the events of twenty years ago,
Hu Fei was completely stunned.
He never expected that the cause of his father Hu Yidao's death was so complicated. On the surface, it seemed that Miao Renfeng killed his father, but it was actually Tian Guinong, that insidious villain, who was behind it all!
"My father was known as the 'Great Hero of Liaodong,' a man who lived a life of chivalry and integrity. I never imagined that he would die at the hands of that shameless scoundrel, Tian Guinong."
I really...hate it so much!!
Hu Fei clenched his fists.
