Chapter 312: Entering the Palace at Night
No matter what you do, you have to have a reason, you have to have a why, you have to talk about why, just rely on Yuan Anning's contribution to this trip, and the sacrifices she made, a piece of tortoise shell does treat her a little badly, and it makes sense to give her two pieces, but whether to give or not to give is also between the two, it's okay to give, it's okay not to give, let's see.
The eighth master flew very fast, even if it was downwind, it never slackened, but flew with all his might, this guy learned smartly, and knew that he could take advantage of the downwind to rush more, if the wind direction changed, it would take a lot of effort.
Departure from the watch, the fifth watch is less than to arrive outside the city of Chang'an, the night of dawn in winter, Chang'an at this time is still shrouded in the night.
The eighth master's father may be an unusual anomaly, the eighth master continues its special bloodline, not like other birds with an exposed complexion, the south wind has long known this, so he did not let the eighth master land from outside the city, but flew straight to the north of the west city where Yuan Anning lived, looked down from the sky, found the small courtyard of Yuan Anning, signaled the eighth master to lower the height, hovered over the small courtyard for a while, felt that there was no enemy ambush, so he picked up Yuan Anning and jumped down, and fell straight into the courtyard.
After landing, he let go of Yuan Anning, and then quickly inspected all parts of the courtyard to make sure that there was no abnormality, so he waved his hand at the eighth master who was hovering in the sky, signaling it to take shelter outside the city.
The winter night was cold, Yuan Anning was sedentary for a long time, his hands and feet were numb from the cold, and he staggered into the house.
Nanfeng looked at it from the outside again, and when he entered the house, he found that Yuan Anning was adding tea leaves to the teapot.
"What are you doing?" asked Nanfeng.
"Tea with you. Yuan Anning said.
"Alas, you have a lot of rules, hurry up and rest on the kang, I'll burn the kang for you." Nanfeng snatched the teapot from Yuan Anning's hand and pushed it into the East House.
"This ...... This ......"
"What is here and there, go up and rest. "The south wind put down his burden and went out to fetch firewood and grass.
There is also a wing room in Yuan Anning's yard, which is filled with firewood and grass, and Nanfeng brought firewood and grass back, added water to the pot, and lit a fire under the stove.
"I'm really annoying you. Yuan Anning was very unhappy.
"Don't say kind words, I won't live here forever, and when you can take care of yourself, I'll leave. Nanfeng said.
"Hmm. Yuan Anning nodded.
Although Nanfeng didn't want to live here permanently, seeing that Yuan Anning didn't keep it at all, he was still a little disappointed, "Go to the kang, don't stand on the ground." ”
Yuan Anning nodded, and thanked him again before going to the kang.
Nanfeng added firewood and grass to the stove, went out and went to the house, squatted down from the side of the roof, and observed the surrounding situation, this is not the time to make a fire to cook, if this is targeted by others, and find that the chimney is smoking, you will know that Yuan Anning is back.
After waiting for a long time and seeing no movement, Nanfeng was relieved and came down lightly.
"What did you do?" asked Yuan Anning.
"Look at the wind outside," Nanfeng said, "who lives in the west?"
"An old couple, deaf and dazzled, and they don't have right and wrong. Yuan Anning said.
At this time, the water in the pot was already boiling, and the south wind scooped some hot water for Yuan Anning, and did not put tea leaves.
"Sleep well, I'll go to the Westinghouse. Nanfeng said.
Yuan Anning nodded, "I have wronged you." ”
Nanfeng knew that Yuan Anning was saying kind words, so he didn't answer, just waved his hand and went to the West House.
The West House was the place where the old palace maid lived, and the old palace maid died on this kang, and the bedding was also the old palace maid's, Nanfeng naturally knew, but he was not taboo, and it was good to be a Taoist priest, no taboos, not afraid of demons, not afraid of ghosts.
There is a huge difference in temperature between the place where I lived before and Chang'an, and I didn't warm the quilt after lying down for a long time, and I didn't fall asleep until there was light outside.
It's an exaggeration to say that I'm restless, but it's true that I'm in an uneven mood, I actually had a dream after falling asleep, and I can't remember anything in the dream, it seems to be related to Zhuge Chanjuan, it seems to be a quarrel with Zhuge Chanjuan, and finally I woke up.
When he went to the ground, Yuan Anning had already woken up, and he had already washed, and he was sitting at the table in the east room flipping through the books, which were a stack of transcribed and rubbed books.
Seeing the south wind coming out of the West House, Yuan Anning stood up, "You wake up, there is porridge and rice in the pot." ”
Nanfeng yawned, shook his head and woke up, he had slept too heavily before, and he didn't know when Yuan Anning got up.
"Did you get up early to cook porridge to entertain me, or to tell me that you can take care of your own life, and I should leave early?" asked Nanfeng with a smile.
Hearing Nanfeng say this, Yuan Anning couldn't cry or laugh, Nanfeng was different from everyone she knew before, no matter what she tried to simplify as much as possible, outline and comprehend, and save time.
Seeing that Yuan Anning didn't answer, Nanfeng pursed his lips, his face full of contempt.
Seeing Nanfeng pouting, Yuan Anning smiled, "I'm afraid that my injury won't heal for a year and a half, don't go, I've been living here." ”
In Nanfeng's impression, Yuan Anning was a person who couldn't laugh, and when he heard her say this, he didn't know how to answer, so he walked over to her, "What are you looking at?"
Yuan Anning stepped sideways, let Nanfeng get closer to watch, the book Yuan Anning was reading was copied by herself, the handwriting on it was smaller than the original handwriting, in addition to the handwriting, there are also a lot of graphics, look at the decomposition of the artifact, it should be the prosthetic hand that Yuan Anning said before.
"You drew this?" asked Nanfeng, Yuan Anning's graphics were very realistic.
Yuan Anning nodded.
"Oh, I can't see it, talented girl. The south wind half-joked.
"Seeing the smile, I'm just scratching the surface. "Yuan Anning is humble.
"Opportunity to draw me a portrait. Nanfeng said casually, as soon as the words fell, he immediately regretted it, Yuan Anning's right hand was gone, and he was afraid that he would not be able to paint in the future.
Fearing that Yuan Anning would be sad, Nanfeng hurriedly pointed to the graphics on the book and diverted the topic, "This thing is so complicated, it must be very laborious to make." ”
Yuan Anning shook his head, "It's not difficult to cast and splic, but it's difficult to connect with the muscles and bones." ”
"This is easy to say, when the time comes, I will go to Uncle Wang, if I am here, I will accompany you, if I am not there, you can go by yourself, he knows you, you can take something from the underground secret room and give it to him, let him pick it up for you." Nanfeng said.
Nanfeng said, Yuan Anning frowned suspiciously.
Seeing this, Nanfeng explained, "I took you over and asked him to help you continue the palm, but he couldn't do anything, but he made a deal with me and gave me five Huanyang Dan in exchange for a life, not to ask for my life, nor to let me kill anyone, but to let me release a person I want to kill in the future, or save a person he wants to save." ”
After Nanfeng finished speaking, Yuan Anning was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Why did he make such a deal with you?"
"He knows that I have a tortoiseshell heavenly book, and bets that I can have an artificial one in the future. Nanfeng said.
"How would he know that you have a book from heaven?" asked Yuan Anning.
"I told him that as long as he can help you catch the palm of your hand, I will give him the Tortoiseshell Book of Heaven as a reward, but unfortunately he is not good at learning and can't cure you. Nanfeng said, seeing Yuan Anning's surprise, he smiled again, "I didn't expect it, in order to treat your injuries, I can even send out the Book of Heaven, isn't it very moving?"
"Why are you like this?" Yuan Anning's expression was very complicated, both moved, helpless, and a little wanting to laugh.
Nanfeng smiled, "I've always been like this, that's it, if you build it in the future, go to him to pick it up for you, he knows the relationship between the two of us, and he doesn't dare to refuse you, if he refuses you, I'll play tricks on him in the future." ”
"A gentleman is ...... his word"
Nanfeng waved his hand to interrupt Yuan Anning's words, "What a gentleman and villain, I'm talking about cheating, and I'm not denying it, he asked me to save people, I can go a few hours late, if that person dies, it's no wonder that I." He wanted me to spare someone's life, so I paralyzed the man in bed, which was not unbelievable. ”
Yuan Anning couldn't help but laugh, and shook his head.
Nanfeng took out the porcelain bottle from his arms, pulled out the wooden stopper, poured out a pill from it and handed it to Yuan Anning, "Here, this is Huanyang Dan, I have tried it myself, it can really bring the dead back to life, as long as it is not cut off by someone, and it is not taken before the corpse is cool, it can be saved." ”
Yuan Anning was surprised and stunned.
Nanfeng stuffed the pill into Yuan Anning's hand, "Take it, don't be polite to me, my life is not easy, there will definitely be a large group of people behind my ass in the future, I have to keep a few more to save my life, and I can't give you more." ”
Yuan Anning took the Yang Returning Pill and stopped talking.
When Yuan Anning was stunned, Nanfeng leaned down and looked at the words on the book again, the prosthetic hand can only be made of metal, according to the different materials, it is divided into upper, middle and lower three grades, the upper grade is Xuantie, Xuantie comes from the nine heavens, it can sense the five elements, no matter what the five elements of the injured person are, they can be connected with the muscles and bones. The medium is Kunwu red copper, which is a kind of spiritual iron that belongs to the world, as long as the five elements are not fire, they can be matched. The inferior grade is ordinary brass, which can only be mated by those who belong to gold and water.
After reading the words on the book, Nanfeng turned around and went to the Westhouse, took out the plate of black Xuantie from his baggage and walked back, "This is Xuantie, give it to you as a prosthetic hand." ”
Yuan Anning was still holding the pill in her hand at this time, and when she saw Nanfeng giving her another big gift, she became more and more surprised, and her eyes widened.
Nanfeng casually threw the plate of dark iron to the corner of the kang, "This thing is good, but it is not easy to melt, and ordinary stoves can't help it." ”
"Do you know what this is?" Yuan Anning turned to look at the piece of dark iron that stretched out into a whip shape.
"Of course I know, dark iron is a good thing, ordinary weapons can be turned into sharp weapons with a little addition, and weapons that are completely fused by it are divine weapons. Nanfeng said.
"You know that this thing is strange, and you still give it to me?" Yuan Anning was terrified.
"Do you mean that you have to keep good things for yourself, and you have to give away the broken copper and iron that are not rare?"
Yuan Anning looked at Nanfeng in astonishment, and only came back to his senses after a long time, "If Miss Zhuge knows......"
Nanfeng waved his hand impatiently, "Don't mention her, let this guy's lungs hurt, this is my thing, I can give it to whoever I want, doesn't she love to be jealous, eat hard, don't listen to good words, you have to be hard." ”
Yuan Anning lowered his head slightly when he heard this, and did not answer the south wind's words.
Nanfeng didn't speak anymore, turned around and went to the stove, took the dishes and chopsticks out, scooped up the porridge and rice to eat, "Tonight is the end of the year, there is nothing to eat at home, I have to go out for a while, buy something and come back, you insert two needles for me, easy to disguise." ”
"Momen is not good at practicing qi, and their acupuncture sealing and disguise technique is only suitable for cultivation below Dong Xuan. Yuan Anning answered from the East House.
"Why is there still this stubble?" Nanfeng answered casually, Tian Yuanzi was also disguised at the beginning, but it was not a silver needle to seal the acupoint, but another method, that method is not limited by cultivation, but unfortunately he can't.
"I can walk around, or I'll go. Yuan Anning said.
Nanfeng didn't answer, and in broad daylight, he really didn't dare to go out and wander around.
After drinking two mouthfuls of porridge, Nanfeng remembered another thing, "Where is the Kyushu dictionary you said?"
"The Royal Library is in the Taixue Palace. Yuan Anning replied.
"Where is the Taixue Palace?" asked Nanfeng again.
"In the Imperial City, the second entrance of the auxiliary hall on the right side is. Yuan Anning said.
"Is the defense tight?" asked Nanfeng again.
Yuan Anning shook his head, "The royal family lives on the first line of the Middle Palace, where the defense is tight, and the auxiliary hall is relatively lax. ”
Nanfeng thought for a while and said, "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, the defense should be more lax, I'll go and see tonight, by the way, what did you do last time you went to the palace?"
"I'm looking for someone. Yuan Anning said.
Nanfeng washed the dishes and chopsticks and put them back in the cupboard, "Did you find it?"
Yuan Anning shook his head, "No." ”
Nanfeng didn't go to the east house again, but casually took a small bench and sat in the kitchen, from here you can see Yuan Anning, the pill he gave Yuan Anning before Yuan Anning has been holding in his hand.
Seeing Nanfeng looking at her, Yuan Anning shook his head and said, "I understand your kindness, I really can't ask for these two things, you better take it back." ”
"Why can't you ask for it?" asked Nanfeng casually.
"We're just friends and these gifts are too valuable. Yuan Anning lowered his head and said.
"I don't quite understand what you mean, do you want us to be just friends, or do you want us to be more than friends. Nanfeng asked.
Yuan Anning bowed his head and was silent.
Nanfeng didn't speak again, Yuan Anning is an out-and-out lady, very polite, very scaled, but it doesn't feel very good to follow these scales all the time, this is not because Yuan Anning twisted, in all fairness, Yuan Anning is really not twisted, the reason why they get along is not very tacit, it should be related to the origin of the two, one is a wandering market called Hanako, a princess of the previous dynasty, living habits and temperament are very different.
After a moment of silence, Nanfeng broke the dullness, "You are not the only one who got the part of the heavenly book I gave you, I also gave it to my eldest brother, I always feel that I owe it to you, and if you take Yang Dan and that piece of Xuantie, I feel comfortable in my heart." ”
Yuan Anning tilted his head to look at Nanfeng, "What else can I say besides thank you?"
"You don't even need to say thank you, okay, I didn't sleep enough, sleep a little longer, you're busy with you. Southwind stood up and put the bench back in place.
This sleep was more comfortable than the previous sleep, and he slept until the afternoon, and when he woke up, Yuan Anning had already bought fish, meat, vegetables and vegetables, and the south wind would cook, and the dinner was very rich.
After the meal, the sun goes down and night gradually falls.
Nanfeng reconfirmed the location of the Taixue Palace, took his belongings, and went out to the east.
He was very familiar with Chang'an City, knew where the palace was, went around to the east side of the palace from the north, saw the opportunity, avoided the guards of the city wall, entered the imperial city lightly, passed through the Yongdao, and entered the Taixue Palace.
There are lamps in the courtyard of the Taixue Palace, but no one moves, and there are lamps in the courtyard of every palace in the palace, which is to reflect the royal style and to prevent small nightfalls.
The Taixue Hall is a place to do learning, and learning is useless in these years, and no one will stay on Chinese New Year's Eve, and there are locks hanging on the doors of the main hall and side halls.
After observing the surrounding environment, Nanfeng dodged to the door of the main hall, broke the lock and flashed in.
Just as he turned to close the door, a person walked out from behind the bookshelf on the west side, "Hum ......"
