Chapter 1143

When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she looked at Mei Qinglian's face which had a last burst of energy. She smiled and said, "At that time, I saved many people from the prison. As for whether your father was inside, I do not know!"

"Very … well … thank … you … immortal elder …" Mei Qinglian smiled and turned to look at Li Jinfeng. Her eyes seemed to be filled with tenderness as she said, "Li … gongzi, you are … a rare … gentleman … in this world … this concubine … only regrets … that … I did not … meet you … earlier … I hope … that you can … and … your sweetheart … be married … to each other … and grow old together … this … scarf … just treat it … as a … wedding gift … from little … sister … to you …"

As Mei Qinglian spoke, she reached for the handkerchief hanging from her waist with great effort. Then, she lifted it up forcefully, wanting to pass it to Li Jinfeng. However … the moment she lifted it up a little, the light in her eyes disappeared. Her hand also drooped down weakly. She could see that there was no breath coming from her mouth and nose!

"Miss Mei … Miss Mei …" Li Jinfeng was a little emotional as he shouted.

"Gongzi Li … Miss Mei … has already passed …" Zhang Xiaohua patted Li Jinfeng's shoulder and softly comforted him.

She then stood up and looked at the already dead shopkeeper Liu and the other three men who were barely breathing. She walked over and did not hesitate to use the Bewitching Finger on them. After a while, Zhang Xiaohua laughed coldly. She stretched out her hand and broke the necks of Mei Qinglian, Zhao Hong and Wu Yuantong.

"This Mei Qinglian was actually a subordinate of the Righteous Alliance and was in charge of sending messages. There were also spies from the Righteous Alliance in the Galloping Carriage and Storm Carriage Company.

Many of the Righteous Alliance's messages were also sent through the carriage company.

Hmph, why am I so unlucky?

I was just sending a letter home and I just happened to meet a disciple of the Righteous Alliance. So what if I met him? I just had to meet the Righteous Alliance who needed a huge amount of money. Damn it, when did I's character become so … unbearable? "

However, Zhang Xiaohua immediately rubbed her nose and said self-mockingly, "Perhaps my character has become even more heaven-defying. After destroying Xi Cui Mountain and Evil Tiger Villa, I kept most of the gold and silver that the Righteous Alliance wanted in my belt."

"Sigh, this Miss Mei is really pitiful. Originally, she had already escaped the calamity of being exterminated, but … because she had the Mei family's hidden treasures, she was targeted by Zhao Hong and Wu Yuantong from the Righteous Alliance. However, it's also strange. Why didn't the two of them capture Miss Mei in Nanzhao Town?

Why not just directly send her to Xi Cui Mountain?

And of course, of course, of course, of course?

Such a rare hard-working attitude!

If it wasn't for the fact that those two people died so quickly, I would have asked them properly! "

"Aiyo, that's not right. The youngest Mei and Shopkeeper Liu were not invited by the two of them. It was because the youngest Mei found out about their whereabouts through the disciples of the Storm Carriage Company. That was why he brought Shopkeeper Liu along. Hehe, I understand now. Zhao Hong and Wu Yuantong also had the intention of pocketing the treasures. At least, they didn't have the intention of handing over all of the treasures!"

"Birds die in pursuit of food and men die in pursuit of wealth. The ancients really didn't lie!" Zhang Xiaohua finally understood the crux of the matter.

"Xiaohua …" Li Jinfeng, who was at the side, saw Zhang Xiaohua doing many strange things. He also heard the words of the three people before they died. When he saw Zhang Xiaohua raise her head from her deep thoughts, he asked, "Are you … the Zhang Xiaohua that I know?"

Zhang Xiaohua asked curiously, "Why are you only asking now?

What were you doing just now? "

"Hehe, I didn't react just now. But now that I think about it … you actually used that … some kind of hidden weapon to kill all four of them. I feel … I feel … you can't possibly have such a high level of martial arts. Moreover … there were four of them. You didn't even show up … and they were all killed?"

Li Jinfeng's eyes suddenly lit up as he said with a smile, "Don't tell me that you are the legendary Sword Immortal!"

Zhang Xiaohua rolled her eyes and said, "Young Master Li, you … were you accompanying Young Miss Mei and talking too much. How can I be a Sword Immortal?"

"I think so too … but …" Li Jinfeng nodded. He was in so much pain that he didn't notice that Zhang Xiaohua flew in.

"At most, I am an Immortal Dao expert!" Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile.

"Immortal Dao?

What is that? "Li Jinfeng asked curiously.

"Let's talk about it later!" Zhang Xiaohua waved her hand and said, "Let's first … bury Young Miss Mei!"

"But … you have already saved Young Miss Mei. How can we bury her without permission?

It's better to take her body back … "Li Jinfeng disagreed with Zhang Xiaohua.

"Alas, Young Master Li, the bandits of Xicui Mountain are ruthless. How can there be any survivors in their hands?

What I said to Young Miss Mei just now was just to comfort her! "

"No way, the bandits of Xicui Mountain are still alive?"

Li Jinfeng was a little indignant again, "Xiaohua, you promised Young Miss Mei that you must kill all the bandits of Xicui Mountain when you go back!"

Zhang Xiaohua didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She said, "Of course, I killed all the bandits and only left these two people. But Young Miss Mei … I didn't see her at all. There were no survivors in the dungeon of Xicui Mountain, and there were hundreds of corpses in front of the gate of the mountain stronghold. Some were old and some were young. Young Miss Mei should be among them.

Oh, by the way, it seems that Young Miss Mei died before she reached Xicui Mountain. Her body was abandoned in the wild! "

"Alas … I see. Young Miss Mei was a well-known good person in Nanzhao Town. She actually … fell into such a state … Then as you said, bury Young Miss Mei here!"

"Well, OK, wait a moment." Zhang Xiaohua nodded and went out again. After a while, she came back with a huge coffin.

"Where … where did you get this?"

Li Jinfeng was dumbfounded. He wanted to bury Young Miss Mei properly, but the mountain was very high. It was very difficult for them to climb up the mountain. It was very difficult to take the body down or the coffin up, so he didn't tell Zhang Xiaohua.

"Don't ask. See where the Feng Shui is good. I'll do it …"

"Okay." Li Jinfeng looked at Mei Qinglian's body, who was smiling, and sighed. He went out of the temple and found a place not long after.

It didn't take long for Zhang Xiaohua to find the swords of Zhao Hong and the others. He dug a large pit and buried Mei Qinglian in the coffin!

Looking at Mei Qinglian's small grave, Li Jinfeng bowed and said, "Young Miss Mei, you and I met by chance. I wanted to kill the bandits, but I was powerless.

You and I have been running for our lives, and we can be considered friends. I am partly responsible for you being buried here. If there is a chance in the future, I will send your coffin back to Nanzhao Town.

Young Miss Mei, you have taken your revenge, so you can leave easily. I hope you can live a happy life in the underworld and don't have to worry about the bandits anymore. "

Zhang Xiaohua whispered, "Young Master Li, Young Miss Mei was born sick in the heart and lungs. Even if she didn't run for her life, I guess … she won't live for more than three years. You … don't have any burden."

"Alas, I know this. Young Miss Mei also told me … but I always felt … very powerless all the way!" Li Jinfeng said sadly.

"Strange, Young Master Li, Young Miss Mei was chased by the bandits of Xicui Mountain because of the Mei family's treasure. Why did you get involved for no reason?" Zhang Xiaohua asked curiously.

"Let's go back to … Lu Town. I'll tell you slowly along the way."

"Oh, I still have something to do in Poyang Town. Let's go together. When it's done, we'll go back to Lu Town together!" Zhang Xiaohua replied.

"It's all right. As long as you're with me, what am I afraid of?" Li Jinfeng said with a smile.

With Zhang Xiaohua following them, it was indeed very convenient. Descending the mountain was also very easy. When they encountered a steep and difficult place, Zhang Xiaohua reached out and lifted Li Jinfeng up. Then, he directly jumped over. At the foot of the mountain, the two of them hailed a carriage and headed towards Poyang Town.

In the carriage, Li Jinfeng told her about his encounter with Mei Qinglian.

It was also fate. Li Jinfeng was visiting a friend in Nanzhao Town. He met Mei Qinglian who had just returned from visiting a friend. When she saw the drastic change in her family, she immediately jumped off the carriage and ran away without greeting the maids and servants. Xicui Mountain had placed the Mei family as their main focus and had arranged many disciples around the Mei family. When they saw a luxurious carriage coming to the Mei family, they immediately stopped it. However, when they found that Young Miss Mei was not in the carriage, they quickly looked around.

Young Miss Mei was like a headless fly. When she saw Li Jinfeng's carriage, she jumped in without thinking. Coincidentally, Li Jinfeng was the only one in the carriage. After leaving the town, Young Miss Mei found a secluded place to get off the carriage.

Li Jinfeng naturally reminded Young Miss Mei about her safety. Young Miss Mei saw Li Jinfeng's refined manner in the carriage and knew that he was a gentleman. She couldn't help but feel dependent on him and quietly told him about her family's situation.

The Mei family was also a big family in Nanzhao. Li Jinfeng had heard of Minister Mei's good reputation from her friends. When he heard about the Mei family's misfortune, even though he didn't know who did it, he was furious and felt pity for them. However, Li Jinfeng didn't let his anger get to his head. He knew how serious this matter was and he couldn't bring the disaster to his family. Therefore, he discussed with Mei Qinglian and decided to settle down in a small mountain village first. They would make plans after finding out the details.

Therefore, the two of them pretended to be an eloping couple and hid in a mountain village first. Li Jinfeng returned to Nanzhao Town to inquire about the news. When Mei Qinglian got the news that her whole family had been kidnapped by Xi Cuishan, she immediately knew Xi Cuishan's intention. She had the idea of using the treasures at home to rescue her family. But … how could she know any Jianghu people?

She could only ask Li Jinfeng for help. Li Jinfeng knew Zhang Xiaohu and the entrance to Ethereal Heights. However, at that time, it was unknown whether Zhang Xiaohu was alive or dead and the Misty School had become the Righteous Alliance. Li Jinfeng naturally didn't know what to do.

In the end, Mei Qinglian remembered that Minister Mei seemed to have mentioned that the Mei family had some relations with a martial arts family surnamed Tan. She also remembered the name of the Tan family's residence. Therefore, she decided to go to the Tan family to seek help.
