Chapter Twenty-Three: One Hundred Thousand Meteorites
Jingchu turned east to the north, near an official road in the Central Plains.
A woman in green covered with a black gauze hat galloped past in a carriage without hurrying.
The wind is cold, the hunting is loud, the dark thick curtain covers the long carriage airtight, the whole carriage is made of extremely hard iron pear wood, the speed of the official road is not necessarily slow, but extremely stable.
Suddenly, a heavy-topped square sedan chair with the same dark thick curtain slowly approached.
The sedan chair is not too conspicuous, but the sedan body is wider than the ordinary sedan chair more than an inch, there is a person riding a horse on the side of the sedan body, the dark black cloak with a neck collar is not low, covering most of the face, can not see the appearance clearly, and then followed by about a dozen people, all the way quietly in the middle of the hawkers on both sides, at a glance it seems to be the pomp and circumstance of ordinary large families going out.
The woman in green driving the carriage saw it from a distance and gave way to the side of the road.
The black-clothed man on horseback on the opposite side saw it, raised his head slightly and signaled to the sedan chair driver, and also gave way to the side of the road.
The two carriages continued to move forward, and after staggering each other, the dark heavy sedan and carriage slowly moved away.
The cold wind is still overwhelming.
After the carriage slowly left the distance, on the left side of the heavy sedan chair, the man in black whispered to the person in the sedan chair: "The woman who just now has a Shaoyang sword hanging around her waist." ”
On both sides of the official road, many vendors came out to set up stalls in the cold wind, shouting and selling constantly.
After a long time, the person in the sedan chair let out a cold snort that was not light or heavy: "Seven years ago, the famous owner of the Sword Dancing Mansion went against my Xuandi's will in a trivial matter, and within a few days, my Xuandi secretly slaughtered the building...... Brother Xuan took two things from the owner of the Dancing Sword Building, one was the Shaoyang Sword Book, and the other was ...... It is the Shaoyang Sword. ”
The man in black listened quietly, and a dark streamer flashed in the eyes of the glooon.
It was the tenth birthday of Xuandi's daughter, and he gave these two things as a birthday gift to his daughter...... The former lord of Bining. ”
The man in black silently exuded murderous intent: "If it's really her, then the person in the carriage is ......"
The person in the sedan chair sneered: "It must be that person...... he said, as if he was aware of the murderous aura around the man in black...... He said lightly: "Let them go." ”
The man in black looked coldly ahead, and his voice was cold: "Father, ......"
The person in the sedan chair snorted coldly: "This woman, this king will have to deal with it sooner or later...... But now is not the time for her to have an accident. He paused for a moment, and his voice seemed to be light and faint: "Moreover, as far as this king knows, the martial arts of the county lord of Nabining do not seem to be inferior to you......"
On the side of the sedan chair, the already gloomy eyes of the man in black added a bit of coldness.
"Are they going?"
The person in the sedan chair thought for a moment, and said quietly: "If you go out of Jingchu and go east, it is the way we came...... Send someone to watch. ”
"Yes, Father. ”
"Lan'er, if it's cold outside, you can come in and rest. ”
The man in black lowered his eyes and whispered: "Father Xie, this place is still some distance away from Tianling Mountain Villa, and it is good for the retainer to ride a horse." ”
The person in the sedan sedan stumped neither high nor low.
After galloping out of the official road for a long time, Ye Luye heard a suppressed low cough coming from the carriage, she hurriedly stopped the carriage and got some hot water nearby.
"Master, clean your hands with hot water. She half-lifted the curtain and handed the hot water to the people in the carriage.
The little ferret immediately crawled out of Duanmu Immortal's hand.
The white-clothed man in the carriage coughed and warmed his hands in hot water, then slowly dried them and took them back.
Ye Luye has been looking at her pale and irrepressible face solemnly, and always feels that the person in white has been much worse than before since he woke up from a coma three days ago, and it is not like the slightest break in the power of the water is not a big problem.
"Master......" Ye Luye was very worried, and wanted to inquire several times......
Duanmu Xiaoxian took a step ahead of her and asked, "Before...... But a sedan chair staggered past us?"
Ye Luye was stunned for a moment, and immediately responded: "Yes." ”
Duanmu Xiaoxian was silent for a moment, and then didn't say anything, only said, "Let's go on the road." ”
Ye Luye frowned lightly and asked, "Does Master know the person in the sedan chair?"
Duanmu Xiaoxian lowered her eyes and coughed lightly, "There is a faint aroma of ambergris coming from the sedan chair...... "She moved the little ferret that nested back on her lap into the palm of her hand, and continued: "For the teacher, remember that it is the tribute incense from the land of Tianzhu to the imperial court......"
The leaves are deep.
Duanmu Xiaoxian only said lightly: "It's okay, just go on the road, don't delay any longer." ”
Ye Luye bowed his head and responded: "Yes, Master." ”
……
Gong Yi Yun Shen glanced at Yun Xiao, there was light in his eyes, and then said with a smile: "Yun Xiao, Blue Girl, Ah Zi, Gong Yun is fortunate to meet today." ”
The three of them nodded at the same time, Ah Zi hid the dagger in his hand, and then said with a grin: "Gong Yiyun, I'm a little curious about what kind of enemy you provoked, and you actually smeared such a vicious poisonous ...... on the blade."
Gong Yiyun was slightly shocked when he heard this, and after a long time, he frowned and said, "I don't know where those people came from......
Ah Zi sighed.
Gong Yiyun continued: "I sacrifice the sword villa has always been in response to the request to cast swords on the rivers and lakes rarely complain, this time I led people to buy back a batch of fine meteorite from the Western Regions, across the river loop, Guanzhong is going to the land of Wu Yue to transport back, unexpectedly, just out of the Guanzhong in this place of ten miles, a group of people in black cloaks came out to take it. ”
"Capture the meteoric iron?" Lan Suwan was slightly stunned.
"This batch of meteorite iron was carefully purchased by me from the alpine land of the Western Regions, and it is a batch of rare materials used to forge swords. ”
Yun Xiao glanced up at Gongyi Yun and asked, "Big Brother Gongyi...... How many meteorites are there?"
Gong lost Yun Jing for a moment, and replied: "100,000 catties." ”
"100,000 catties?!" Ah Zi exclaimed: "How heavy is that! How long the team has to be and how many people do you need!"
Gong Yiyun nodded silently and said, "Therefore, it can be imagined that those people wearing black cloaks are not low in martial arts, and they are well-trained and ruthless, and they are definitely not ordinary thieves." ”
"How could an ordinary thief want to take something from the meteoric iron...... Lan Suwan frowned for a moment and asked, "Do you remember what they look like?"
Gong Yiyun seemed to be thinking about something, and when he heard her words, he came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "It's late at night, and they all cover their faces with cloaks, so they can......'t see clearly" He thought about it, and said, "It's just that I thought it was ...... They have a strong sense of the dead in them......"
When the three of them heard this, they couldn't help but be puzzled.
Gong Yiyun glanced at the three of them and explained: "The people I brought out from the village are all good at martial arts, but during the fight, they can't help but be afraid. It was only because of the severed arms and beheadings caused by the swords of the group of black-clothed men, and the attack was extremely ruthless, and the injuries did not reduce their momentum, as if they did not feel pain. ”
All three of them were shocked. No pain?!
After staring at his eyebrows for a long time, Lan Su suddenly sighed: "If this is the case, it is not easy for the prince to be lucky enough to survive this time. ”
Gongyun was silent for a moment, and then nodded: "This matter will be investigated carefully when I return to the villa." He looked up at the three of them again: "That night I was wounded and rode my horse for several hours to get rid of them and come here, but I was poisoned...... I thought I would die, but I was saved by you. ”
Lan Suwan smiled slightly: "If you want to come here, it should be the fate of the son." ”
Gong Yiyun laughed when he heard this: "What Miss Lan said is that there are still unfinished things in the lower body, and it is true that you can't die." He smiled and looked up, and said, "The three of you are going to leave for the road immediately?"
Lan Suwan nodded politely: "My junior brother and sister and I were ordered to go out on errands, the time is approaching, and we can't delay any longer." ”
Gong Yiyun glanced at the three of them again, and wanted to ask something, but in the end he didn't ask, but said: "That is the case, Gong Yiyun wishes you all a smooth journey, Lan Girl, Yun Xiao, Ah Zi, this time I just hope that there will be a chance to meet again......"
The three of them looked at him and nodded.
After Lan Suwan smiled at him, she was about to lead Yun Xiao and Ah Zi away, but Gong Yiyun spoke again: "Yun Xiao." ”
Yun Xiao turned his head when he heard the voice, looked at him and said, "What else does the big brother have to say?"
The three of them were puzzled for a moment, but they saw Gong Yiyun take out a delicate rouge box from his arms.
"When I came, I received a message from my family that my eldest brother was going to marry soon, so when I passed through southern Xinjiang, I bought two boxes of jade cream from a local Wu woman, and prepared to send them to my sister-in-law, who was about to enter the house soon...... Just because I bid a lot, they gave me an extra box. He looked up at Yun Xiao, smiled, and said, "It is said that this Wu Clan's jade face cream can cover any old scars with a light touch, and blend with the skin, it is difficult to see without washing it off...... I'd like to give you a box. ”
All three were stunned.
But all rouge gouache is a gift for a woman, but he clearly said that he wanted to give Yun Xiao?
Ah Zi was about to laugh and joke.
But seeing Lan Su Wanzhen's color change slightly after a moment, he immediately turned his head to take a closer look at Yun Xiao's face, and sure enough, he saw that there were extremely shallow traces left behind the young man's ears after the change of appearance......
Even if it is extremely shallow, it is seen through by the public cloud at a glance.
After Yun Xiao's heart was shaken, he looked directly into Yun Ying's eyes with a kind smile, and then stepped forward with a smile and said, "That is the case, Yun Xiao thanked Brother Gongyi." He raised his hand to take the fat rouge box from his hand and nodded slightly.
Gong Yiyun smiled and looked at the three of them: "In this way, it is inconvenient for Gong Yiyun to send it away, and the three of them will meet again." ”
The three of them also saluted: "Goodbye." ”
