Fu Heng owed a debt, and replied politely: "Miss Aning, meet again." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The middle-aged man in the high hat immediately took a few steps forward: "Changshan Gongzi has something important to do when he comes to Shizipu today?"

Fu Heng smiled and pointed at Zhaoran and said, "Tao Da shopkeeper, do you know who this son is?"

The shopkeeper Tao looked at Zhaoran, as if he still couldn't come back to his senses.

Fu Heng shook his head lightly: "Zhang Xiaobai has had a good time over the years. I'll tell you his surname is Rong. ”

He said it unceremoniously, but the shopkeeper Tao did not look angry, but lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then his face showed surprise: "Jiang Mansion Rong Xian, Rong Gongzi." ”

Zhao Ran was a little admired, it was rare for Fu Heng to remind him a little, this Tao shopkeeper could actually guess who he was, and sure enough, it was not a loss of buying and selling news.

Fu Heng said leisurely: "Rong Gongzi's battle against the Buddha's mother, famous throughout the capital, these days it has spread to the streets and alleys, no one knows who Rong Gongzi is, Tao Da shopkeeper actually doesn't know in person, it's a pity." ”

There was already a trace of sweat on the forehead of the shopkeeper Tao, and he saw that his expression was quite panicked, and he thought that he was here to find fault after all, so he waved his hand and said: "Shopkeeper Tao, it doesn't matter, we will recognize it in the future." ”

"Childe, please take a seat. ”

As soon as Zhao Ran sat down, the shopkeeper Tao took the tea, and then said, "I don't know what advice Gongzi Rong has?"

"I'll give you a clue

Zhaorong knocked on the bamboo slip on the table and grinned.

The shopkeeper Tao laughed dryly: "Childe, although Shizipu is paid according to the news, not all the news will be bought. ”

Although he was a little surprised that the person in front of him was Jiang Fu Rongxian, who had been thunderous in the past two days, he still felt that Zhao Ran could provide so many empty breaths in one breath, and he was a little unimpressed by Fu Heng's face, so he said it quite tactfully.

"It's okay if the buyer is willing to pay. Zhaoran blew a sip of tea foam, drank two large mouthfuls of Shizipu's high-quality tea, and then picked up a bamboo slip and said: "Liu Sheng, a native of Tang County, Baoding Prefecture, the word Zhongyu, was born in the eleventh year of orthodoxy, and his whereabouts are unknown when he entered Beijing to catch the exam, and the day of his disappearance was ten days ago." ”

The shopkeeper Tao said: "Today's just empty breath. ”

Zhaoran pointed to this sign and said, "The person who came to release the empty breath should be an elder such as Liu Sheng's uncle and uncle, right?"

The shopkeeper Tao was slightly stunned: "Gongzi Rong recognizes Liu Sheng?"

Zhaoran shook his head, pointed to the bamboo slip and said: "At this time, there are still three months before the Spring Festival, and it is the New Year's Pass, ordinary students take a vacation for themselves, go to the mountains to pick plums and visit the snow, or find a gentle township to stay for a few days It is a common thing, and this person is not only sure that Liu Sheng is missing, but also turned into hundreds of taels of silver to find, it can be seen that most of this person is his elder, and he came after ten days, although he is an elder, but he should not be a close relative." ”

The shopkeeper Tao was silent.

Zhao Ran said again: "At the same time, it can be seen that the two are very likely to not live together, then this elder is not a native of the capital, Liu Sheng lives in the township hall where the candidates live, and the elder should be the inn where he lives, and at the end of the year, he can buy news with a few hundred taels of silver, this elder is a businessman, from Tang County, this is a jujube merchant." ”

He said and took out another bamboo slip: "There is a Four Seasons Shop looking for Yahuan here, this Yahuan has white skin and a red mole between the eyebrows, it can be seen that although the age is not young, it is still pitiful, and the price of the main family is higher than the price of Uncle Liu Sheng's nephew, so this is not a Yahuan, most of them are the wives and concubines of the owner of the Four Seasons Shop." ”

Zhao Ran said and merged the two bamboo slips together: "The merchant who sells dates has lost a nephew, and the merchant who buys dates has lost a wife and concubine. ”

He said with a toothy grin: "The information I provided is worth half of the silver taels?"

The shopkeeper's forehead was sweaty again.

Zhaoran took out a bamboo slip again: "This is the empty breath of a Datong warehouse looking for a ship, the same year is approaching, a ship that has not yet entered the customs cannot be an empty ship, but the warehouse is only looking for a ship, not mentioning what kind of goods are inside, it can be seen that most of the goods are contained in it." ”

"If the smuggling is gunpowder and weapons, then the Datong warehouse will definitely not even dare to find the ship, so it is the moonshine, salt, and seafood that are suitable for the situation. The robber who dared to steal such a boatload of smuggled goods was of course a big thief, and he couldn't find any trace of him after looking for so long in this Datong warehouse, which shows that he is not only good at stealing goods, but also good at selling stolen goods. But how do you sell the stolen goods without a trace?"

A Ning listened with relish, but Ying Ning leaned against the window and didn't reply, Fu Heng held the teacup and said, "I want to hear it." ”

"Simple. He only needs to come to a place like Shizipu to post a vacant message. This vacancy has three characteristics, the first is that the things sought are strange and can hardly be found, the second is that the reward is so low that almost no one is interested, and the third is that its date is similar to that of the Datong Warehouse looking for a ship. ”

Zhaoran picked out one from a row of bamboo slips: "Five taels of silver, looking for a bald head, lame old woman with breasts."

。 This bald-headed, lame-chested old man may barely be able to find it, but this bald-headed, lame-chested old woman is afraid that she won't even get out of the door. But what is the purpose of this man's coming to post this empty message? Anyone who could read the news might take the silver taels and wait for them somewhere, and then someone would take them to buy the stolen goods. If there is a product, you will buy, and if there is no goods, you will scatter, and there is no need to have a fixed place and a fixed contact, so there is no trace. ”

A Ning said considerately: "Young master, the shopkeeper Tao just said that they have a good relationship with Shuntian Mansion Yin, but you have helped them make a great contribution, and these five taels of silver are too cost-effective to buy." ”

Zhaoran stretched his voice and said: "Zhang Xiaobai, Boss Zhang is a rich person, when I bought his things, they were all priced according to pearls, five taels of silver, isn't this a slap in the face of Boss Zhang?"

The shopkeeper Tao is no longer sweating on his forehead at this moment, but sweating through his heavy clothes: "Rong, Rong Gongzi." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Xiaobai's sad face appeared, and it was the first time that Zhaoran looked at Zhang Xiaobai's face, and he almost didn't recognize it.

"Young Master Rong, Young Master Fu. Zhang Xiaobai clenched his fists and made a wave.

Zhao Ran grinned and said, "Xiaobai, don't come unharmed." ”

Zhang Xiaobai said with interest: "Let's make a price for the news of Rong Gongzi's talent." ”

Zhaoran looked at it carefully a few times, but he couldn't tell whether he had seen this Zhang Xiaobai or not, so he only thought about it with an embarrassed look: "How did Xiaobai set the price for me at the beginning." ”

Zhang Xiaobai said straightforwardly: "How much did I take from Mr. Rong, my original price ......"

As soon as he said this, he saw the onion next to him baring his teeth, and quickly changed his words: "The original price will be refunded twice." ”

Zhaoran laughed "haha": "What do I say, Boss Zhang is Boss Zhang." ”

Zhang Xiaobai didn't even hit a single one, immediately closed the shop and paid the bill, and then sent the four masters and servants out of the door.

－－－－

Ah Ning held the money box and said happily: "Only Zhang Xiaobai has ever cheated people for money, and only the young master can let him spit out the money that comes to his mouth." ”

Zhao Ran said with great satisfaction: "Well said, no one in this world can take advantage of my appearance!"

He pointed to the money in the box and said, "Give me the remaining half, and the three of you can use the remaining half to buy something you like." I'll be waiting for you in the teahouse opposite, and I'll buy two duck-stuffed buns for the young master and come back. ”

A Ning, although Ying Ning is a stranger, but on weekdays, there is actually no money left in his pocket, and this half of the money is really not a small money, Ying Ning was just about to say a word of ambition and was dragged away by A Ning.

Zhao Ran turned his head and looked at the depths of the alley, which seemed to be not far from the address that the dragon patriarch had said in his dream, and although he didn't believe it was true, he still walked towards the courtyard that the dragon patriarch had said.

－－－－

Zhang Xiaobai waved away the Tao shopkeeper, and then said to Fu Heng: "I don't know what is the important matter of the confusion here." ”

Fu Heng said: "The Divine Soul Lamp placed by the Dragon Patriarch outside the city has gone out, and he is dead. ”

Even Zhang Xiaobai, who can be called the master of the world's news, seemed to be stunned for a moment before saying: "The world is going to be in chaos." ”

"Without the Dragon Patriarch, the Protoss is like a plate of scattered sand, and the national teacher has gathered a group of remnants by his side, and it is difficult not to make waves

。 Now the Dragon Patriarch asked you to keep Shen Fang's secret can be sold to me. Fu Heng put down the teacup in his hand.

Zhang Xiaobai hesitated a little before saying, "The secret that the Dragon Patriarch asked me to keep is not Shen Fanglone's, but about Rong Xian. ”

"Rong Xian?"

"About ten years ago, the Dragon Patriarch went to see the Python Patriarch and asked him to tell him the secret of how to enter and exit the Night Lonely City. The Python Patriarch was forced to be helpless, so he had to tell the Dragon Patriarch that not all of them could enter and exit the Night Lonely City, and there was only one person who could enter and exit the Night Lonely City, and they had been called Zhaoran for generations. And the Zhaoran of their generation is called Rong Xian. ”

Fu Heng said: "Rong Xian is so talented, presumably the other Zhaoran are also extremely smart people, they keep going to the Night Lonely City, what did they find?"

Zhang Xiaobai said: "The Dragon Patriarch didn't elaborate on this, and he didn't tell him if he wanted to come to the Heavenly Python Patriarch, but I think that it must be a huge secret that can lure Zhao Ran to Night Lonely City continuously." ”

"Huge secret...... Could it be the whereabouts of General Taiyin?" Fu Heng frowned.

Zhang Xiaobai shook his head: "If it is the whereabouts of General Taiyin, why does the Python clan need to hide the Dragon Patriarch......? In fact, he is not a member of the Python family. ”

"It's not from the Python clan...... Fu Heng pondered for a while before he said, "As far as I know, the national teacher has already sent Wen Zhigeng to the vicinity of the Nine Tails Peak to capture the Python clan, and we must not let them learn this secret before we do." Otherwise, we don't know how many innocent people will die as a result, so we may need to convince Rong Xian to go to Night Lonely City again if necessary. ”

Zhang Xiaobai sent Fu Heng away, let out a long breath, he turned his head and saw that the window didn't know when it opened, so he got up and walked over to close the window, but suddenly his back sank, and the little face with an onion head behind him turned sideways: "Xiaobai." ”

"You...... You ......" Zhang Xiaobai's eyes widened, and the cold hairs on his body were about to stand up.

Onion said politely: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I'm very worried." ”

Zhang Xiaobai wanted to cry a little without tears: "Don't dare, I don't know Young Master Yang...... What's the need?"

Onion said solemnly: "You miss me eating you, right? I'm actually here to tell you that this heart is dead...... I'm not going to eat you!"

－－－－

Zhaoran stood at the door of the courtyard, looking at the branches sticking out of the courtyard wall, it was really a courtyard with jujube trees.

He looked around twice, and turned in from outside the courtyard wall, this courtyard had obviously been uninhabited for a long time, and there was a thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground, and he looked up at the top of the tall tree and thought, is there really another half of the token here?

Zhao Ran spat in the palm of his hand, climbed up the tree, and peeled off the floating leaves on it, and sure enough, he saw an oily paper bag hidden inside, and Zhao Ran opened it three times and five by two, and there was really half a token inside.

The dragon patriarch's guess was completely correct, they did not return to the dream, but really returned to the original place before Yin Li was taken away from the fishing village.

He sat on the tree, looked at the token in his hand, and wondered with some confusion whether Jiu Ru had deceived him? Jiu Ru had said that everything he saw was not real, but the truth was...... Everything is real.

Suddenly, an elegant and pleasant voice came from his ear: "Where are you?"
