Chapter 1083: The Peach Blossoms Are Missing
In May, the sun is warm and the south is full of flowers, but the north is still cold and windy, and the silvery glaciers have been spreading from the sky, shining with a soft white light under the sun, and the wind blows on the walls of Hampua, bringing a bit of coolness. The hawkers in the bazaar shouted and attracted the attention of passers-by.
Several men in strange clothes were asking about something on the other side of the street at the moment, and the vendors who were asked all shook their heads in horror and said they didn't know.
"Young master, it's not a way to ask like this, it seems that the people here are really afraid of the name of a bad doctor. Aren't we ......?"
"What it is. The young man who was asked raised his eyebrows, showing a trace of impatience, and after glancing at the person who was questioned, he pulled the fur coat on his body and slammed it on the ground, stomped his feet and scolded: "In the past, it was said that I was extremely unfilial, but now that my father is seriously ill, I have come thousands of miles to this extremely cold place to seek medical advice, and you can't even ask about a place." Evil doctor Nan Pingzi is not a good thing, is my brother Xi Hao also a person who will not be saved when he dies?"
"After all, I have to ask for a place, isn't it, the person the master wants to be by his side the most now is you, if-"
"If what? He is so capable of my mother to death, should he let me go now and leave me alone in this world! But we have all looked for famous doctors, and no one can cure them, otherwise I would not have had to travel all the way to here. He's good, it's a big deal to close his eyes and go, but I have to live in this world alone, I ...... I...... Woo woo woo ...... "Stubborn, after saying viciously, after all, he has not been able to defeat the sadness of his son who wants to raise but his relatives are not there, Lin Rui pursed his lips and cried out. Wu Tianhan looked sour on the side, picked up the coat and covered his shoulder, comforted him softly, sighed, and said, "Okay, okay, it's a big deal to turn this Hampua over and look for it again, but are you sure it's really here?"
Lin Rui wiped a handful of tears, nodded, and said: "Flawless said that his biggest regret in this life is to let Brother Xi Hao get involved in this worldly dispute, so tired that he followed Nan Pingzi to the extremely cold land in the north of Heboduo, this Humbua is already the northernmost place, and these people are so afraid of Nan Pingzi's name, if not this, where can it be." β
"Alas. Wu Tianhan sighed again when he heard this, and looked at the guests in the restaurant who were still looking at them, but they were all silent when they turned around, and couldn't help but shake their heads.
Lin Rui is right, Nan Pingzi must be around here, but the people here are so afraid of him, how can they easily reveal his whereabouts. I have been in this city for two days, but I haven't even asked for a single message, and the rumors of Nan Pingzi's vicious nature are really true. I don't know, is Xi Hao's son still safe now?
"Money can make ghosts grind, young master, you wait here, your subordinates will exchange some silver, let people ask in secret, if you want to come to his residence, it won't be in the city, we just need someone to guide us to the maze." β
"Go quickly, get some more silver, and don't let me come in vain." β
Wu Tianhan got up and walked out, took two steps and turned back and said, "You can wait here, Shi Lei and they haven't returned, you can't go anywhere alone." β
"Yes, yes. Lin Rui urged him repeatedly, seeing that he was still not at ease, he hurriedly sat down on the stool and signaled him to go quickly. Wu Tianhan just went out, Lin Rui waited boredly for a while, saw that the person holding the table next to him had been looking at him, and occasionally whispered a few words, so he took a plate of peanuts on the table and threw it at those people, muttering: "What to see, you don't say anything about business, what are you looking at now!"
Hebo people are all tall and big, he smashed people with peanuts like a child, those people looked at each other and laughed, Lin Rui was angry, and rushed up together.
"Hey!"
Before he could say anything, he was grabbed by a person's wrist, after the man looked at his face, he muttered to the two people opposite him and squeezed his eyebrows and said a few words, although Lin Rui didn't understand much, but he still understood a little bit intermittently, thinking that these people had been paying attention to him for a long time, just waiting for him to be alone, and now it was really a sheep in the tiger's mouth, and he couldn't retreat.
"HelpβWu Tianβ"
The corners of his mouth were held fiercely, and the rest of the words became whimpering, and Lin Rui saw the people in the restaurant slipping out silently one after another, and knew that he was in big trouble now.
These people didn't come here by chance, they had been staring at themselves for a long time, maybe they were bandits from this barbarian land. Not long after Wu Tianhan went out, Shi Lei and the others couldn't come back for a while, this person was not familiar with the place, and no one knew even if he was sold.
What to do!
His mind turned, and his hands were not idle. Those people are tall, he looks delicate, small and exquisite, it is effortless to be held in his hands, and he does not care about his struggle, but after he breaks free of his hands, he does not know where to feel a dagger and stab his hand, that set of movements, he can be said to be familiar with the road, the person who grabbed him was unexpectedly scratched by him on the arm, and loosened the restraint in the pain, so he was able to get out, and ran towards the door without looking back.
\, it's spacious, and you'll go back when they're done. Lin Rui smiled even more proudly, and shouted: "Brother Xi Hao!"
Xi Hao was shocked, poked out half of his head from behind the lingering man who pretended to be an old man, looked at Lin Rui, and dragged the lingering again, muttering: "Your craftsmanship is becoming more and more refined, which is seen to be flawed." After that, he suddenly said "huh" again, and asked in surprise: "You called me?"
"Yes, you don't know how hard I worked to find this place! I walked around the city for two days, but no one would tell me the location of the Mingshui Stream. β
"Blah blah. This time, even lingering was a little surprised, and after pulling Xi Hao out from behind him and standing up, he looked Lin Rui up and down, thought about it, and suddenly smiled.
"You are Lin Rui, the young master of Yinan Wumen, the naughty Lin Rui who went to the bandits' den with Flawless as a child, right?"
"It's me, it's me!" Lin Rui jumped up and shouted at Lingering: "You are Lingering!" Flawless said, Brother Xi Hao likes windmills, loves to eat sugar gourds, and is childish, so Lingering can spoil him and let him, no, I will understand it at a glance. β
Xi Hao was still staring at the conversation between the two with wide eyes, and after hearing Flawless's name, his heart jumped violently, and he took Lin Rui's hand and asked, "Is it Flawless who asked you to come to us? How is he now? But is it okay? What about Bai Yan? Are my father and mother okay?"
Lin Rui was still excited, and suddenly fell silent after listening to Xi Hao's question, and the change was lingering in his eyes, and he suddenly felt uneasy, and sure enough, after Lin Rui muttered for a while, he said: "There are some things that I can't understand in a few words." β
Seeing that Xi Hao's face had changed, he stretched out his hand and pulled him, and said to Lin Rui: "Since you can't say anything clearly, let's go back and talk about it, how many people and horses have you brought, let them wait here, you go with us, let's talk about it slowly." β
Lin Rui nodded, seeing that Xi Hao's spirit was a little trance-like, knowing that he was worried about Dajin's relatives, he couldn't help but have a sour nose and tears, Xi Hao came back to his senses, desperately squeezed out a smile, and then took his hand and walked forward.
The night is as cold as water, the clear water stream is terrifyingly quiet, and the snakes, insects, rats and ants are not even seen for half a minute because of the poisonous miasma, and the cold wind passes through the hall, and it looks more and more deserted.
At this moment, he was silently hugging Xi Hao, and what Lin Rui said echoed in his mind.
In just a few months, so many things have happened in Dajin. Unexpectedly, Flawless gave up everything and failed to change to Bai Yan's peace after all! Bai Yan followed him, his father and mother failed to return to Chengle, and was placed under house arrest by Emperor Wen of Jin in the Eastern Capital General's Mansion, Chengle's million-strong army returned to the imperial power, and the young general Mo Han's palace was undressed and returned to the mountains and forests, and more than 100,000 people of the Mo Family Army and the Imperial Forest Army under him were disintegrated and dispersed and sent to various places. Nangong Rehe held a nominal official position, Bai Ze was disheartened and went to Jin Ling, and the most controversial Bai Shaoqing was demoted to Changsu, a place on the northwest edge of the northwest, after the emperor gave him the title of Taichang, and became the city gate official guarding the city gate. He was okay, he didn't complain, Xu was buried in his heart with guilt for tens of thousands of heroic souls, and now he has a little peace of mind.
And today is already a powerful power, Zheng, Jin, Han, He four countries are standing, the surface is calm, it won't be long, I'm afraid you fight for me, and it's difficult to be peaceful.
I don't know where they are now, without the opposition of identity and the condemnation of the world, they should be free to live the life they want to live, right?
"Lingering ......"
"Hmm. β
"Say, where are they now?"
"The world is vast, there will be a place for them after all, or maybe now they are just like us, hugging each other, looking at the moon in the sky, thinking about those who make them worry. β
"Do you say, will we ever see them again?"
"Yes...... It is like the white clouds in the sky, one here and the other there, when they turn into raindrops to moisten all things, they ...... And we got together......"
