Chapter 2: "The Emissary of the Cloud Palace"

Honglu Pass is located in the central and southern part of Beilun Continent, it is an important military fortress built when the Tian clan went north to resist the demons, after the end of the ancient war, the world has been peaceful for many years, and it has gradually become the most important commercial center in the north, a large number of merchants gather here every day, and the leather and mountain goods of the north are trafficked to the south, and the rice and fruits of the south are trafficked to the north.

Among the many vendors, there were three merchants dressed as the jade clan of Nanyanzhou who were particularly eye-catching, they were very tall, with dark skin, thick palms, and low brims.

They entered this Honglu Pass, asked the whereabouts of the three women from the Cloud Palace door to door, and after searching for most of the day without success, they stayed in a time-honored inn in the city-Bihu Pavilion.

In the Tianzi No. C room in the Blue Hoof Pavilion, the lights were dim, and three big men were arguing quietly over a few portraits.

A man with a long crooked face pointed to one of the portraits of a woman and said: "Big brother, the younger brother thinks that this woman must be the master of these three people, before we inquired all the way, many people said that this woman in gorgeous clothes has been sitting upright and silent, this should be their master, very in line with the image of a cold and arrogant master." ”

The round-faced man next to him objected: "Second brother, what you said is not right, so many innkeepers said before that I saw this girl in green clothes swaggering through the market with the glittering golden 'Walking in the World' sign, let's think about it, which master would hand over such an important token to the next person for safekeeping? According to my opinion, this woman is the master." ”

The square-faced man in the middle frowned, he stroked the beard on his chin, and scolded in his heart: "Damn, now the people of the Cloud Palace are fighting back, and those grandsons swept away the wealth of the royal families from all over the world and hid in the deep mountains and old forests to continue to enjoy the happiness, but they sent our three brothers out to get Huayang Zhu." ”

As soon as the conversation box opened, the two couldn't help but start scolding.

The long-faced third brother said: "That's it, aren't our three brothers the one who didn't save the wind in Tianshui City that time! But this can't be regarded as our sin! We marched in accordance with the order of the Polar Night Changshi until after dawn, and the battle was all over when we got there." How can the death of the wind be counted on our heads?"

The round-faced fat man slapped the ash on the table, and said viciously: "This time, so many brothers came to our advance army, I originally thought that I could make a fortune here first, and then get some military industry or something to return to my hometown, and I don't have to live this kind of life anymore." Who would have thought that now his mother's brothers would die in forty or fifty people. The Xuanhuang army outside is encircling and suppressing us and the Sun Worship Sect, and those unconscionable generals are still sending us out!

Thinking that his happy little life might be gone forever, the round-faced fat man couldn't help but shed tears.

"How can a dignified warrior of the empire lose the face of a warrior by crying. The square-faced boss glared at the fat man and continued: "I, Yin Tianqiu, have not been treated much since I joined the army, and this time I have to take this military life, and I have suffered my younger brothers." ”

The fat second child wiped away his tears and comforted Yin Tianqiu: "Big brother, don't say that, the brothers all know that those generals have always been jealous of their brother's military exploits, and they don't forget to suppress their brother all the time. Although the situation outside is very serious, our situation is not very dangerous, we just need to tie up these women according to the method agreed before, and get the sign of 'Walking in the World'..."

"Our three brothers can walk to the temple and take Huayang Zhu away!" said the third brother.

Yin Tianqiu took a dagger and pointed to the three portraits drawn by a rural scholar on the table from memory and said: "No matter who is the master, let's tie up these three Cloud Palace women together and then interrogate them strictly, as long as we get the brand, we will tear up the meat ticket." ”

Then Yin Tianqiu said to Yin Diqiu: "You go to the suburbs to find a remote place, a broken house and a cave, or something, and use it to imprison meat tickets." ”

Then he said to the fat man, "Third brother, you go to the street and inquire if anyone has seen these three women." The owner of the previous inn made it clear that he heard them say that they would be in this Honglu Pass for a few days, could it be difficult to leave early?"

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door, and then the sound of the two talking came in from outside.

"Wen San'er! The three merchants you are looking for from Nanyanzhou live in this Tianzi No. C room, you can go find them yourself! The shopkeeper still has work for me to do!"

The person who was called the third essay immediately said with a smile: "Okay! hard brother, you can get busy!"

Yin Renqiu muttered in a low voice: "How can they be targeted by the government?"

The second child immediately put away the three portraits, blew out the oil lamp on the table in one go, and the whole action was done in one go, without any mud and water.

As soon as I finished cleaning up the table, I remembered a knock at the door.

"May I ask anyone? I'm a guy from the Donglai Inn on Chengdong Avenue, and I've been entrusted to visit a few masters!"

Wen San shouted inside with a smile on his face at the door, one eye staring hard into the crack in the door.

The door creaked open, and the cute third child with a wide-brimmed hat greeted him with a smile.

"Little brother, what are you looking for us for?"

Wen San was originally a little apprehensive, but when he saw such a kind Yin Diqiu greeting him with a smile, the uneasiness in his heart disappeared.

"Dare to ask the merchants from other places, but are you looking for three women from the Cloud Palace?"

As soon as these words came out, Yin Renqiu's expression, which was originally smiling on his face, also froze instantly, but he soon regained his composure: "Ahhhh We were ordered to look for a few girls, and someone in the palace missed them, so let us escort them back. ”

Wen San was overjoyed, so he told him what Yu'er told him.

Yin Renqiu narrowed his small eyes, which were originally a glimmer of heaven, and his smile became even brighter, he grabbed Xiao'er's shoulders ecstatically and said: "Oh! Little brother is really our great savior! This way from the Cloud Palace, after a lot of hardships, we have searched all over the mountain villages and towns that I don't know, and we are all about to be disappointed." I didn't expect you to come over at this time, little brother, and you really helped our brother a lot!"

After speaking, he took out some loose silver from his sleeve and stuffed it into Wen San's hand.

Wen San was completely unprepared in his heart, thinking that he was just coming to deliver a message, but Nacheng thought that there was an unexpected gain. On the surface, he pretended to shirk it twice and then held the broken silver in his hand, secretly weighed it, and estimated that there were about two taels, and he couldn't help but rejoice in his heart.

"This big brother, without further ado, the little lady is still waiting for you in the store! You might as well go with me to meet the little lady!" Wen San smiled all over his face, and diligently wanted to lead the way in front.

Yin Tianqiu glanced at the second child, Yin Diqiu immediately understood, packed up some things, opened a crack in the north window, and walked out of the room as soon as he turned over, jumping out of the courtyard wall of the inn.

Yin Tianqiu saw that the second child had gone out to find a place to stay, so he tidied up his robe, changed his kind face and walked to the door, and greeted Wen San with a smile.

Wen San Yi Yin Tianqiu was wearing a fur coat, a pair of deerskin thick boots on his feet, and a white fox scarf around his neck.

Outside the room where Su Mengling and the three of them lived, Wen San bent down and said to the two Yin brothers: "Two uncles, please wait in the courtyard for a while, and I will report the little one." ”

He walked a few steps quickly, but in his hurry he didn't pay attention to the steps under his feet, and when he stepped on the air, his forehead hit the door, and immediately became red and swollen. He laughed, turned his face to the Yin family brothers and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Then he raised his hand and knocked softly on the door.

"Who?"

Yan'er's voice came from the back room, followed by the sound of small footsteps.

"I'm Wen San, the guy in the store, and this time I came to bring the old man in the cloud palace to the little lady, and the little lady came out to recognize each other, and the errand entrusted by Miss Yu'er can also be handed over. ”

As soon as Yan'er heard it, it was someone from the Cloud Palace who came, and hurriedly replied: "Please tell the envoy of the Cloud Palace, Miss needs to dress up before she can come out to meet the guests, let them wait for a while." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the back room and told Su Mengling the news.

"Coming, so soon?"

Su Mengling, who had just finished dressing up, was a little surprised, she stood up and hurriedly urged Yan'er to open the door.

Yan'er rolled her eyes for a moment, and kindly reminded: "Miss, this person is a little strange, should we interrogate more, it's better to be careful!"

Yu'er had just finished cleaning up Su Mengling's bed, clapped her hands and walked over and said, "What are you afraid of? In broad daylight, are you still afraid that they will do anything wrong? This is Honglu Pass, the territory of the Great Yan Kingdom." When the young lady first arrived, she went to visit the guards here, and presumably the general must have passed the news of our arrival to Tian Jialan's father. ”

Yan'er is still a little worried: "But I always feel that something bad may happen in my heart." Heck, it's always good to be mindful when you're out and about. ”

The two maids stopped arguing and looked at their master, Su Mengling.

Su Mengling, who was full of joy, didn't hear the argument between the two just now, and saw that both of them were standing motionless, and asked curiously with wide eyes: "What are you doing here?" Yan'er, you go and pack up the fine softness, let's go back to the Cloud Palace today!"

She clasped her hands into fists on her chest, closed her eyes and said with a smile: "Big brother, I knew that you wouldn't worry that I would wander alone, so after all, you still sent someone to look for me back." ”
