Chapter Ninety-Eight: Jingcheng Distinguished Guest
Xiao Nan put down the teacup, stroked the other arm with one hand, and thought to himself: "I paid to listen to other people's plays, why am I playing music for them now?"
Seeing Xiao Nan's embarrassed expression, Hall Master Shen stretched out a hand, holding a small cloth bag in his white palm.
"Young Master Xiao, otherwise, this Tianyuan Pavilion was opened by our Jingyunmen Qianying Hall, and I am the hall master of Qianying Hall.
"If Xiao Gongzi is willing, you will stay in this Tianyuan Pavilion, if you are willing to teach us the piano skills of the girl here, I am willing to pay Xiao Gongzi five high-grade spirit stones every day as a reward. I don't know what Xiao Gongzi thinks?
"There are ten high-grade spirit stones in this, which are counted as today's meeting gifts, please accept them. ”
Xiao Nan looked at the bag in the hand of the Shen Hall Master, "Ten spirit stones are not a small amount. ”
Although Xiao Nan is not short of spirit stones, it is only for the time being, and he knows that high-grade spirit stones are very valuable.
"Xiao Gongzi, you just agree!"
"Yes, you can agree, and our sisters can also get some spirit stones for you. ”
"Young Master Xiao, play another song and let Hall Master Shen listen to it too. ”
The room was not big, and this soft-voiced request made Xiao Nan's already somewhat hesitant heart make a decision completely.
"This is a high-grade spirit stone, you can get it without beating or killing, why not? If you don't want to do it, you will be alone, pat your ass, and say that you will slip away. Thinking of this, he reached out and took the spirit stone bag in the hand of the Shen Hall Master.
His sudden move couldn't help but make Hall Master Shen and everyone present stunned.
Xiao Nan sat in front of the Dongyue Zheng again, and the sound of the piano sounded again.
At this time, in a small town not far from Jingyun City, a team of carriages slowly drove in, and then stopped at a post station opened by Jingyun Gate.
The courtyard door of the post station opened, and several courtyards poured out, and a row of lanterns hung above the porch, and under the bright light, they were dressed in uniform cyan power suits, and their faces were all vigilant.
Looking at the men and women walking down the carriage one after another, the head of the nursing home stood on the steps and arched his hand: "Dare to ask everyone, where are you from?"
"Ask your people to settle the carriage, we are all from Jingcheng, I am Zhuge An. In the haze, a man spoke unhurriedly.
"Zhuge An, Zhuge Jingcheng Zhuge Family?"
The leader of the courtyard ran down the steps in a few steps, bowed deeply and asked in a trembling voice: "Zhuge Gongzi, you are Zhuge Gongzi of Xuanling Sect?"
The man waited for the people who got off the carriage behind him to approach, and then looked at the leader who asked him and said lightly: "Yes, you asked someone to arrange more rooms to come out." ”
The leader hurriedly said yes, and then turned back to the nursing home behind him and shouted: "Don't go and report it quickly, let everyone get up and ......." ”
The leader of the nursing home had a clear idea, and the nursing home behind him was also quite quick, and several people quickly rushed everywhere.
Leaving only the leader of the courtyard, he took two more steps forward, then stepped aside, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, "Everyone, please!"
This group totaled nearly a hundred people, and Zhuge An did not take the lead, he and several other men who also looked like sons gave way to one side.
Soon, the head of the nursing home only felt a flower in front of him, and saw three women fluttering, white, red, blue and green...... The colorful costumes of the three women seemed to combine into a dreamlike rainbow in his eyes.
The same tall figure, under the glow of the lights, the breath-taking beauty makes people seem to forget that they are in the world.
"How can there be such a good-looking girl? Hey, how can the girl who walks in the middle not look as good-looking as my daughter. The nurse came back to his senses after this stunned gaffe, and hurriedly lowered his eyebrows and made a gesture of humility.
Indeed, the three women walked side by side, the women on both sides were beautiful, the one on the left was a goose egg face, and the one on the right was also a goose egg face, but the width of the face was slightly different.
This pair, the skin is like coagulated fat, the cheeks are rosy, the willow eyebrows are nose, the eyes are like the stars and the moon in the deep pool, and the lips are like lotus dew reflecting the glow. There is no trace of earthly customs.
And the woman in the middle also has the elegance of not being stained with vulgarity, and she has a domineering momentum, but her facial appearance is no more ordinary, her complexion is dull, she is dark yellow after a long illness, and she has a blank look.
But such a woman was surrounded by the fairies on both sides and walked forward.
Walking behind the three daughters were several noble sons with extraordinary bearing, which also shocked the little leader of the nursing home.
The women had already walked up the steps and were about to step into the gate of this post station, when they suddenly heard Zhuge An behind them exclaim: "How is it possible?
Zhuge An looked at the portrait on the pillar with an incredulous expression.
"Who is it? do you know?" asked the other boy beside him.
"Who do you see?" asked the woman on the right in front of her, turning around.
Zhuge An was still stunned, and only after a while did he look away from the portrait and look at the woman who was questioning, and at this time the other two women were also pulled around by her.
Zhuge An looked at the sallow woman in the middle, pointed to the portrait and said, "This ......." ”
But he only dragged out the syllables of the word and did not continue.
"What the hell is going on?" asked the woman who spoke first.
"Alas, come and see!" After Zhuge An finished speaking, he felt mixed feelings in his heart, and a feeling of anger arose.
The two women on the left and right seemed to be more curious, so they walked over quickly, while the one in the middle walked a little slower.
"Ahh
"Sister, what's wrong, do you know him?"
"Miss Shuangling, who is he?" asked a young man who was standing side by side with Zhuge An.
It turned out that it was Wei Shuangling who was amazed, and she didn't answer the questions of the two at this time, but just opened her eyes wide, looking at the sallow woman who hadn't come over yet.
"Sister Miao Ying, this person painted Xiao Nan. ”
"Xiao Nan......? Everyone's eyes flashed, and Lu Yiying had already dangled to the portrait pasted on the pillar.
She looked straight at the person in the painting, stunned for a long time, and tears flowed like a stream.
"Sister, this is the Xiao Nan that Sister Miao Ying is looking for?"
Wei Shuangling nodded, but Zhuge An next to him replied: "Well, Miss Shuangqi, he is Xiao Nan." ”
"But why is he wanted by Jingyunmen?" Wei Shuangqi asked softly.
With a "wow", Lu Yiying suddenly turned around and hugged Wei Shuangling, lying on her shoulder and crying.
This cry is like joy and anger, like joy and sorrow. The emotions that had been pent up for several years suddenly erupted, and grievances, sadness, and sorrow were all mixed with this cry.
"It's okay, you finally have news of him. Wei Shuangling let the other party's tears wet his shoulders.
After a long while, Lu Yiying sobbed and raised her head from Wei Shuangling's shoulder, took out a handkerchief and wiped her eyes and face.
She turned again, looked at the wanted notice, and said with a tearful smile, "This is definitely that bastard." ”
Then she raised her hand, carefully removed the wanted notice, folded it in half a few times, and put it into her storage jade.
By the time she turned around again, the indifference that had been on her face was gone.
"Come here. Lu Yiying opened her mouth and said to the little leader.
The little leader had long been stunned by the previous scene, and when he heard the woman calling him, he was only frightened, and he fell to his knees with weak feet, and then quickly crawled towards Lu Yiying.
This situation came as a surprise to everyone.
"You don't have to be afraid, I'm just asking you. Although Lu Yiying was apprehensive, her tone was quite flat.
The little leader didn't raise his head and said, "Miss, excuse me." ”
At this time, some people in the post station had already walked out, but when they saw this formation, they only dared to watch from the sidelines.
"Why do you want Xiao Nan?
"That person, none of us know that his name is Xiao Nan, and he hasn't been caught yet, I heard that he has appeared in Jingyun City a few times, and many people surrounded him at that time, but he was still allowed to run away. "The little leader has no master, and he will only tell the truth.
Lu Yiying laughed when she heard this, and then asked, "You haven't said why you want him." ”
"Yes, yes, I'll just say. Hearing the above rumors, he killed our disciples of Jingyun Sect, and there are ...... among them. The little leader seemed hesitant.
"Don't be afraid, just say, no one will dare to do anything to you. ”
"I've also heard rumors that he has also abolished the grandson of our master. So...... That's why the master of the door sent a lot of people to look for him. ”
"Didn't find it?"
"I shouldn't have found it, because bandits are rampant, every day there will be disciples from Jingyun Gate who go out to clear bandits passing by us, and the disciples who passed by today also talked about it.
"It is said that each hall of Jingyunmen has sent a large number of people to search for him in the city, but no trace has been found, and it is said that whoever finds him will make a fortune or something. ”
Lu Yiying's big eyes were full of surprise, and she was so excited that she almost wanted to jump up, "It's still fun with this bastard, I knew you would be fine." ”
She was so forgetful at this time, in fact, in the past few years, Xiao Nan's doubts about life and death were like thorns in her heart, making her unable to stop bearing the pain.
How many times did she wake up in a nightmare, and the situation in the dream made her guess again and again after waking up from the dream, "Xiao Nan is okay! Will Xiao Nan be okay? Xiao Nan must still be alive, this bastard doesn't know where to hide! Is Xiao Nan really alive?"
"Sister, now you're happy!" Wei Shuangqi shook Lu Yiying in the fugue.
"Well, little one, my sister will often take you out to play in the future. The haze that had lingered in her heart for several years suddenly dissipated, and the words at this moment revealed her original girlish feelings.
At this moment, a middle-aged man led several people to them, bowed down and said: "It turned out to be a distinguished guest from Jingcheng, I am the steward of this post station, there is no distant welcome, and I hope that the young ladies ...... atone." ”
Lu Yiying looked at the middle-aged man who spoke, "It's okay, you wait for a while." ”
Then he said to Wei Shuangling beside him: "Sister, I want to go to Jingyun City immediately." ”
Wei Shuangling was silent for a moment, and replied, "I'll go with you." ”
"Sister, what about me?" Wei Shuangqi said dissatisfiedly.
Zhuge An and several other sons also agreed to Lu Yiying's request.
Lu Yiying nodded a little apologetically, and then asked the steward standing next to her, "Is this place still far away from Jingyun City?"
"The carriage will take nearly two hours, miss, it's getting dark, or I'll rest at the post station for the night, and wait until dawn before leaving." ”
Wei Shuangling didn't wait for Lu Yiying to speak, so he hurriedly said to the steward: "No, you can rest in peace." ”
After speaking, he pulled Lu Yiying and walked down the steps.
