The prosperity of Kyoto is far from being comparable to Rong'an Town, looking along the street, the market is full of traffic, high-rise buildings are lined up one after another, the lunch market has been opened when you enter the city, there are many people on the street, ladies and gentlemen, shoulder to shoulder.

Zhaoran first found an inn and asked for a Tianzi room, and the shopkeeper of the hall was also a well-informed person, and he didn't look at it differently because of Zhaoran's homespun clothes, but a local young man with a milk baby was more or less weird, fortunately, Kyoto was originally a place where there were many people and many things, and the shopkeeper quickly made the little second leader Zhaoran go to see the house after taking a look at it.

This inn is surrounded by collapsed houses (note: the warehouse of the inventory of the Ming Dynasty), the floor is a cut higher, and the Tianzi room on the second floor is particularly bright, and what makes Zhaoran even more satisfied is that he turned around and did not see half a mouse hole.

"That's it. Zhaoran settled on the room and asked some questions about Xiao Er, which was nothing more than where it was the most lively, and what were the delicious and fun things in Beijing.

These questions will be asked by everyone who has just arrived in the capital, and Xiao Er also replied smoothly: "Young master, if you want to buy something, walk from here, cross the Zhengyang Bridge to Daming Gate, where Chaoqian City is the most lively, eat and play, what do you want, you can't go shopping for ten days and half a month!"

Zhao Ran couldn't help but feel moved when he heard Xiao Er shouting to the young master, and ordered him to fetch a basin of water to come in.

Xiao Er was also nimble, and soon sent the water, rewarded him with a few pennies, and then took a look in the mirror, sure enough, he ate a lot of game along the way, and now the flesh and blood under the skin are full, and he seems to be more than ten years younger.

Zhao Ran was very happy, but he was a little hesitant, he didn't know if Jiuru could still recognize it like this.

Fortunately, he is a person who forgets when he encounters something, settled the onion head, and then touched a few ingots of silver from the baggage and put them in the money bag, and when he turned over to the bone whistle, he picked it up and put it to his mouth and blew it twice, looking at the bone whistle in his palm, he couldn't help but wonder why Mrs. Li stuffed the bone whistle to him?

After thinking about it, he still stuffed the bone whistle back into its place, and then according to Xiao Er's instructions, he crossed the Zhengyang Bridge and went straight to Chaoqian City.

－－－－

Most of the men in Kyoto, young and old, wear straight scarves and scarves, and many of them wear Tang scarves.

Zhao Ran found a ready-to-wear shop, changed into a light cyan straight embellished, wore a Tang scarf and went out, passed by a calligraphy and painting stall on the side of the road, and bought himself a folding fan, and then shook the fan happily to find food.

As soon as he stood at the door of the tea shop and glanced at it, he felt as if someone was staring at him, and he turned his head to look at it, but he didn't see any unusual people. From Zhaoran entering the tea shop to eat, to carrying the onion head to eat, that sight was like a bone appendage, and he could always feel it faintly, Ren Zhaoran tried his best to find no one looking at him.

Was it a delusion, or was he scared out of his paranoia by the walking corpses in Lightsless Alley?

Zhaoran shook his head and went straight back to the inn, when he just entered the city, he felt that the street where he lived was very prosperous, and when he walked around Chaoqian City, he found that this was still a popular place in the capital.

Zhaoran returned to the room, and the onion head was still sleeping on the quilt with his buttocks arched, so he put the food in his hand on the table.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, Zhao Ran walked over and opened the door, but there was no half a figure in the doorway, and the knocking sound was still ringing, Zhao Ran suddenly realized that this was not someone knocking on the door, but someone knocking on the window!

He opened the window, and a man hung upside down from the eaves, his voice like an old ox pulling a cart, slow and flat: "You are looking for me?"

－－－－

The man was wearing a round-necked Confucian robe, with a scarf wrapped around his head and a bun, and his hands in his sleeves.

"Who are you?"

"Zhang Xiaobai. ”

"You said I was looking for you?"

"Didn't you rent this bone whistle from Mrs. Li?"

Zhao Ran came to the god all of a sudden, it turned out that the bone whistle was used to summon the person in front of him!

"Madame Lee gave me this bone whistle. ”

"Before or after death?" His voice was still flat, as if he was not asking about the life and death of an acquaintance, but about a tree and a grass beside the road.

"Before death. ”

Zhang Xiaobai asked again: "Do you know how she died?"

"Sort of. ”

"Is this news for sale?"

Zhang Xiaobai is buying and selling news, and Zhao Ran is even more energetic, he has a lot of questions in his heart, and finally found someone to ask: "How to sell the law?"

"Sell alone, sell offset, sing and sell. ”

"How?"

"Selling alone means that you only sell part of the news, of course, you can sell it all to me; selling is to exchange the news you sell for other news; singing and selling means that you think the news is very valuable, and the one who asks for the highest price will get it. This usually has to be sold in a short period of time. But the news of how Mrs. Lee died had already been booked to me. Zhang Xiaobai added, "In addition, you can also buy out, which means that you don't want the news to be sold in the future, so you buy out the news in advance." ”

"I think about it. Zhaoran replied.

Zhang Xiaobai is not reluctant.

"Do you want to come in and talk. Zhao Ran looked at Zhang Xiaobai hanging upside down and was tired for him.

"No, the murderer in your house. Zhang Xiaobai said concisely and to the point.

"Fierce ......" Zhaoran glanced back at the onion head lying on the bed and slolating, he thought for a while and said, "How much do you sell for a piece of news." ”

Zhang Xiaobai opened his mouth and said: "There is secret breath, empty breath, solitary breath, and flow breath, depending on which one you want?"

Zhao Ran had no choice but to ask shamelessly again: "How is this divided?"

"Secret is the news that someone has bought out the news from me. ”

Zhao Ran couldn't help but say, "Someone bought out the news from you, you can also sell it?"

Zhang Xiaobai's tone did not change at all: "Someone asked me to raise a dog for him, the more this dog eats, the more it is not enough, do you want me to raise it for him for a lifetime?"

Zhao Ran was a little speechless, and he actually felt that there was some truth.

Zhang Xiaobai said again: "Empty breath means that I don't have this news here, but I can find it for you, and solitary breath refers to the news that only I know." ”

"And what about Flow?" asked Zhaoran.

"It's news that everyone knows, but you don't know. ”

Zhao Ran thought about it and took out a pearl and said, "How many pieces of news can I ask for this pearl?"

Zhang Xiaobai swept his eyes and said, "Three pieces of flow." ”

Zhaoran almost jumped up, Ru Niang gave him a total of three pearls, he ate and ate, drank and drank all the way, bought and bought, and only turned into a small half of the price of the last pearl, but this pearl is only worth Zhang Xiaobai's three pieces of news, or flow.

Zhang Xiaobai added: "You are also the one who whistled in the Lampless Alley, at that time there were walking corpses and Buddhas from the National Teacher Tower, so I couldn't meet you, but you still have to pay the travel expenses." ”

"You went to the Alley without lights too?!"

"The bone whistle sounds, Xiaobai comes, Tong Su is not bullied. ”

Zhao Ran had to bite the bullet and ask: "Then how much more can I ask?"

"One piece. ”

"It's too expensive, isn't it?" said Zhaoran.

"Expensive is one of the three characteristics of my Xiaobai. ”

"And your second specialty?"

"Expensive. ”

"The Third Featured ......"

"Expensive. ”

Zhao Ran had no choice but to be ruthless and said, "I want to ask about the news of Rong Family's Zhuang Rongxian." ”

Zhang Xiaobai immediately said: "There are two pieces of flow breath on his body, one piece of empty breath, and three pieces of secret breath." ”

Zhaoran was shocked when he heard this, Zhang Xiaobai's breath is so expensive, and the secret breath must be even more sky-high, but someone actually bought out three pieces of news about him.

"I want to ask who Rong Xian is?"

"Deal?" Zhang Xiaobai didn't taunt at all, and it didn't even mean that Rong Xian didn't even know who Rong Xian was, so he came to buy the news.

Zhang Xiaobai asked, obviously this is just a piece of flow, and it is obvious that he is relieved: "Deal!"

"Rong Xian, the son of Rong 11 in Sanho Village, his mother Jiang is the younger sister of Jiang Lanyi, Qin Tianjian Zheng, who was smart when she was young, known as a nine-year-old Xiucai, and often followed her father Rong 11 out to be a guide, but after a serious illness, he was stupid, and there has been no news in the past few years. ”

Zhao Ran couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, Jiang Lanyi was actually Rong Xian's uncle, but the village chief clearly said that it was Rong Shiyi's father buried in the coffin, whether it was a father or a son, he was stunned for a long time, Zhang Xiaobai had an excellent service attitude and did not urge, and patiently waited for Zhao Ran to come back to his senses.

"You can tell me about that empty thing, anyway, I'm asking people for news. ”

"Someone asked me about Rong Xian's whereabouts. After Zhang Xiaobai finished speaking, the hand that had been holding his sleeve stretched out, and he didn't see how he moved, and the pearl in Zhaoran's hand returned to the sleeve with his hand.

Zhao Ran thought that in addition to him, someone else was inquiring about Rong Xian's whereabouts, so he ruthlessly took out another pearl and said, "I'll buy three more pieces of flow." ”

"Just ask. ”

"Where is Rong Shiyi now?"

"Ten years ago, Rong Eleven's whereabouts were unknown in Night Lonely City. ”

"Ye Gucheng is not a person?"

"Night Lonely City!" Zhang Xiaobai repeated, "The original name was Zhuzi Town, but five or six years ago, there were walking corpses crossing the streets in this city at night, so the townspeople moved to live outside the town, and over time, this town became a dead city at night, so now people call it Night Lonely City." ”

Zhao Ran asked with a bad face: "Is this also a flow?"

"Gifted for free. There are three hundred and six pieces of Wandering, 945 Empty Breaths, and 79 Secret Breaths. ”

Zhaoran's face darkened, and he asked instead, "What is Rong Xian's other flow?"

Yang Fu asked him to withdraw from the marriage. The Yang Mansion is a family affair set by the Jiang Mansion for Rong Xian. Yang Mansion was originally white, but later there was a three-list Jinshi Yang Xueshi, and what Master Jiang set for Rong Xian was this Yang Xueshi's sister-in-law, when Yang Xueshi was the first to supervise the imperial history. In the past two years, Yang Xueshi followed Zhu Rong, the deputy governor of the right capital, and Liangguang, appeased the Yao people with a gentle policy, and avoided a fight, which was very favored by the first assistant Wan'an, and now it is the imperial history of the right capital. ”

Zhaoran suddenly felt that Zhang Xiaobai was also expensive, and he didn't add half a sentence of conjecture but said it clearly, when he was engaged, the Yang family was a seven-rank official, and Jiang Fu was a fifth-grade official of Qintianjian, and Yang Mansion was naturally happy when Jiang Mansion climbed high, but now that Yang Xueshi is developed, he is already a fourth-grade official, so he has to choose another high branch for his sister.

"Hmph!" Zhao Ran put on the skin of Rong Xian, and he couldn't help but feel a little resentful of the same enemy.

"What more do you want to ask?"

Zhao Ran shook the pearl in his hand and asked, "Who is Jiuru of the National Teacher Tower?"

"The Buddha sealed the scene. After Zhang Xiaobai finished speaking, he simply took the pearl away.

Zhaoran was distressed for a while, and thought that he should have asked a complicated topic if he knew this, such as buying a piece of the flow of the national teacher Ta Jiuru?

Zhang Xiaobai did two businesses, and said: "I'll give you one for free." ”

"What?"

"Someone is in your room. After he finished speaking, he disappeared with a "whoosh".

－－－－

"Who?!" Zhaoran turned his head suddenly, and saw the onion head on the bed fly into the air, and the door was automatically opened, and the onion head flew out of the door.

Zhao Ran was frightened and hurriedly chased down, he looked carefully, and found that the onion head was not flying by himself, but was carried on the shoulder by some hidden person, who turned white when he met the wall, brown when he met the soil, and looked like a chameleon.

As soon as he went out, he threw the onion in his hand to a black-clothed young man standing under the porch.

The young man had long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he had hidden a hook, and he choked back the "good skin" in Zhaoran's heart.

"If you have something to say, put the child down first. Zhaoran shouted.

The black-clothed young man had already flipped out of the courtyard wall with his onion on his shoulder, and he was running extremely fast, you must know that Zhaoran could run on a par with a person like Wen Zhigeng who was proficient in light skills, but he couldn't catch up with the black-clothed boy.

Zhao Ran felt as if the boy was deliberately teasing him, he chased closer, the boy ran faster, and when he was far away, the boy's speed slowed down again, and he always ran in front of him at a similar distance.

Although he knew that the young man in black might be deliberately trying to lead him somewhere, Zhao Ran had no choice but to chase him down.

The two of them entered the forest in a blink of an eye, and Zhao Ran ran out of breath, and pulled out the demon bow: "If you run again, don't blame me for being rude!"

A young man's sneer came from the woods: "You're welcome to whom!"

As soon as his words fell, the wind in the forest was loud, and the leaves rolled in the air, and it became clear that the falcon more than ten feet wide was swooping towards him, and he swooped forward almost without thinking, and the huge talons flew dangerously against his scalp.

Zhao Ran turned around, only to see the black-clothed young man sitting on the back of the eagle, he could actually drive the eagle, and he didn't see how he moved and ordered, the eagle turned its head and came towards Zhao Ran again.

Although this falcon is huge, its movements are very flexible, as if teasing its prey, and it is scurrying around in the forest with Zhaoran, and the young man's expression is always cold, and when he saw Zhaoran jumping down a slope, he chased after him with a big eagle.

He rode his eagle over the slope, and saw Zhaoran, who was lying on the ground, facing them with a bow in his hand.

When an arrow was shot just as the eagle rushed out of the slope, the young man in black hurriedly lifted the eagle and rushed up, the arrow still flew by the eagle's body, and for a while the eagle feathers flew in the air, and the young man in black couldn't help but be shocked and angry.

Zhao Ran jumped up, about to catch the onion head that fell from mid-air, but suddenly someone knocked the back of his head, and he fell to the ground in front of his eyes.
