Chapter 28
Poor Xi Yutang couldn't find a way to keep himself from seasickness in the end.
In view of the fact that her situation was really not suitable for a hurry, Yue Qingfeng had no choice but to stop the boat when she saw the harbor and get off when she met the town, so that she could step on the ground with her feet from time to time to catch the ground, and relieve the seasickness. Although Xi Yutang couldn't wait to rush to Jiangnan immediately because he received the news of Ziwei Tower, in order to be alive when he arrived at his destination, he had to admit his love and go down to the ground every time he stopped the boat.
It really worked, at least she wasn't half-dead like she had been three days ago.
As for getting on the boat, either by drinking medicine or relying on some acupoints, she can finally sleep a little, so that her spirit will not be too sluggish. At the same time, after carefully discussing with Yue Qingfeng, she decided to endure the discomfort and continue to practice, and strive to get her state back as much as possible.
But after all, she really didn't have much energy before arriving in Hangzhou.
Fortunately, a few friends on the ship are reliable. Shen Qi needless to say, Jiang Meiren uses various methods to divert her attention every day, either telling jokes or pulling her to play chess and games, and she is really uncomfortable, so he dances the sword to her. At this time, Yue Qingfeng was playing the piano on the side, and it was Xie Yanzhi's one that he played. I have to say that this trick is quite effective, two beauties, one caressing the piano and one dancing the sword, are so pleasing to the eye that Xi Yutang has a beautiful illusion that he is in a fairyland, hugging left and right and sitting in the harem......
After a long time, her seasickness symptoms have really reduced a lot.
Under the popularization of science in Yue Qingfeng, Xi Yutang and Shen Qi knew a lot of stories about Xie Yanzhi and his qin, when they learned that this piano was now priceless, the eyes of the two poor people from Xuantian Sect were red, and every day the less the master moved out of the qin, the two stared eagerly, as if the other party was not touching the qin, but ten thousand taels of gold.
The money is in front of him, but it is not his own, Sect Leader Xi and Doctor Shen expressed their great distress.
…… Originally, Yue Qingfeng thought that Xi Yutang liked this piano and wanted to give it to her, but when he learned that no one on the entire ship could touch the piano except him, this idea was instantly dispelled - what are you kidding, if he dares to give it away, Xi Yutang will dare to sell it?
So the original trip of more than half a month was dragged by Xi Yutang for a month and a half, and when they arrived in Jiangnan, it was already early July.
The watery Jiangnan is so hot that it seems to be in a steamer, the tail of the plum rain has just left, and it has caught up with the high temperature, Jiang Qiantong or Shen Qi, they have all changed into light summer clothes when they get off the boat, but Xi Yutang and Yue Qingfeng, one has cold poison, afraid of cold and not afraid of heat, the other has been sick for a long time, weak and weak, and the dress is not exaggerated by the two people, and they don't even see much sweat, refreshing and refreshing, envious of others.
Xi Yutang's seasickness symptoms improved greatly in the first two days before arriving in Hangzhou, although after this incident, she was thin and out of shape, but fortunately, her spirit was not bad, and her eyes were a little brighter than a pair of deep pool-like turbulent eyes, and the dark robe she wore in the past was changed to azure under Jiang Qiantong's construction, and her long hair was tied up, and she was tied in a ponytail high, looking tall and handsome.
In addition to Yue Qingfeng, Shen Qi, Xi Yutang and Jiang Qiantong all plan to cross-dress. Jiang Qiantong put on a gauze hat, changed the tender yellow Luo shirt he often wears, and changed it to peach, Shen Qi moved his eyebrows, picked up the medicine box, covered up the bright color a little, and turned into a foot doctor. Xi Yutang took off the mask, revealing a smooth forehead and the scars under her eyes, slightly changed the temperament of her eyes, she looked less aggressive, with a sword hanging from her waist, she looked like the Xuantian Sect Master, as long as she didn't use needlework weapons, no one could see her identity.
She is not ugly, and she can even be said to be extremely handsome, but her personality environment determines her temperament, and her dress determines her appearance.
Jiang Qiantong saw Xi Yutang's true face for the first time, and was stunned for a while when she took off the mask, then hurriedly opened her eyes, the tips of her ears were slightly red, and she said glutinously, 'It looks like this', and Xi Yutang couldn't cry or laugh.
After all, he was born in a big sect, and as a disciple of the Snow Palace, Jiang Qiantong's personal feelings are not bad, and after adapting to this face, he swore that he would keep it strictly secret. As soon as these words came out, Shen Qi and Yue Qingfeng saw a smile on their faces, and they were deeply pleased with her sensibility and delicate thinking.
Arriving in Hangzhou and getting off the boat, Xi Yutang and Yue Qingfeng temporarily acted separately. The young master of the Yue family was too eye-catching, and she needed to enter the city in a low-key manner, so she agreed to meet after they were settled. Although Yue Qingfeng was reluctant, he still agreed. As the host, he dutifully explained the situation in the south of the Yangtze River, and informed Xi Yutang of some of the Yue family's spheres of influence in Hangzhou, and where to look for him.
He doesn't plan to go back to the Yue family's main house, there is a Yue family courtyard in Hangzhou, and if he doesn't go far, he will be there for most of the year.
Xi Yutang wrote them down one by one, took Shen Qi and Jiang Qiantong to take a step forward in the starry night one day in advance, entered the city of Hangzhou, found an inn, asked for three upper rooms, and began to do his own thing.
Because of seasickness, she held back the fire in her belly, thinking that if she was not seriously injured and could not choose the land route, she would not have to suffer this crime, and her resentment against Tingyu Pavilion, Wulin League and the Tang family was directly raised to the point where she could not bear it.
From the perspective of personal safety, Tingyu Pavilion is the biggest threat to her trip, the poison of the Netherworld on Wushan was thrown to Tingyu Pavilion by Ouyang Xuan, and the same is true of the successive assassinations, but a killer organization will not hunt her down without injustice and hatred, if you want to solve it at one time, you must first know who the owner of the money is, so as to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle.
She didn't have a clue, but just ten days ago, she found the secret message left by the Xuantian Sect at the port post where the ship docked for supplies. There are two codes, one is left by the people of Xuantian Jiangnan Hall, and the other is the emergency signal agreed between the inn and Xiao Wu before they were separated.
Xiao Wu was injured and it was impossible to come to Jiangnan, so there was only one possibility, that is, he sent a message to Jiangnantang, and the matter was naturally the assassination of the inn.
So the first thing Xi Yutang had to do was to meet the hall master of Jiangnan Hall.
Jiangnan Hall Master Xue Yang was one of the first henchmen selected after she took over Xuantian, not Xi Zhimiao's subordinates, but people who were only loyal to her, like Yingqiu, who was born as the sect leader secret guard, and was later put in the light by her, Xue Yang is a pseudonym, and his real name has long been abandoned.
After Xue Yang saw Xi Yutang, he first reported the secret letter from Xiao Wu. According to Xiao Wu, the person who attacked the inn that night was not from Tingyu Pavilion.
He met a man in the rivers and lakes, with an unfamiliar face, seriously injured and dying. Xiao Wu recognized him as one of the people who participated in the assassination, and forced Ouyang Xuan's disciple Han Wenyan to lead the team to hunt down and kill the Xuantian Sect Master. In that group, except for Han Wenyan, there was no disciple of the Broken Yue Sect, although the assassination did not succeed, he still ruthlessly killed everyone afterwards, and that person was the only fish that slipped through the net.
Xiao Wu didn't dare to believe it, so he returned to Luoyang with his injuries, and then probed in many ways, and finally locked on Han Wenyan. Behind Han Wenyan is Ouyang Xuan, and when the matter is here, it has already come to light.
He couldn't come to Jiangnan, but he knew Jiangnantang, so he passed the letter through the Guò Luoyang Branch.
After listening to Xue Yang's words, Xi Yutang sat in place and was silent for a whole quarter of an hour, after sorting out his thoughts, he slowly issued one order after another, every time Xue Yang listened to one, his eyes became a little deeper, and in the end, the whole person seemed to be incarnated into a sharp blade that sealed his throat with blood, and he couldn't wait to slash the enemy on the spot.
Then, the two discussed for a while, and after briefly finalizing the links that needed to be paid attention to everywhere, Xue Yang quietly said goodbye and left.
Coming and leaving in a hurry, Xue Yang had seen Xi Yutang, and he didn't even know about Shen Qi, but the Xuantian Sect's revenge against the Martial Arts League and Ouyang Xuan's Broken Yue Gate had already started quietly.
She was in Jiangnan and couldn't do it herself, but this didn't prevent her from striking at Ouyang Xuan. She only hated that she had left early, otherwise she should talk to her 'old friend' in person.
After seeing Xue Yang, Xi Yutang locked himself in the room. Her strength has recovered by four or five percent, and with Shen Qi's help, she can reach at least eighty percent in a short period of time, which is enough, if it is not for the lack of time, she is not willing to use a quick method.
In the past three days, Jiang Qiantong has naturally not been idle. Xi Yutang asked her to inquire about the recent news worth paying attention to in Hangzhou, and Jiang Meizi readily agreed, and went out with great interest after a night's rest.
At that time, Yue Qingfeng settled down in the courtyard, and a day later received a letter from Xi Yutang, and it was Xue Yang who sent the letter.
…… Seeing the upright and featureless font on the paper, which can even be said to be a textbook font, the less the master instinctively refused to believe that this was Xi Yutang's handwriting. Xue Yang didn't hide it, and when he asked, he directly admitted that it was his ghostwriting.
Yue Qingfeng silently glanced at Xue Yang, who looked featureless, had a wooden personality and was silent, and couldn't believe that this was the hall master of Xuantian Jiangnan Hall.
Too young.
"Ahem, ahem...... The shopkeeper of Han Mo Xuan? He knew that this person was quite famous in Hangzhou.
It's not that this person is famous, but the store of Han Moxuan, among the shops that are blooming everywhere in Hangzhou, is really a big wonder.
From the name, you can see that the main business of this shop is a pen and ink business, the reason why it is said to be wonderful, is really because this store is simply lucky, and I don't know which Wenqu star to worship, anyone who has bought the four treasures of the study in this store, more or less can get a fame.
Originally, this incident did not attract attention, but one year, after a poor scholar passed the township examination, he knelt down in front of this store with tears in his eyes. It turned out that when he rushed to take the exam, his family was so poor that he couldn't even afford pen and ink, and it was Ha Moxuan's shopkeeper who saw him pitiful and provided him with pen, ink and paper for free for nearly a month, and at the same time took care of his situation, and only needed him to work in the store for three hours a day to offset his salary. Although they are the cheapest grades, they are undoubtedly a relief for poor scholars.
So after trying to mention the list in other places, I thought of Han Moxuan for the first time.
I don't know how much bustle there is in Hangzhou City in a day, but there are few anecdotes, and the name of Han Moxuan rang out for a while.
Then, those who had been admitted to the fame suddenly realized that they seemed to have bought something in this store as well...... So one spread ten to hundred, more and more exaggerated, a good thing was deified, and Han Moxuan became completely popular.
Since then, anyone who wants to gain fame has to go to Hanmoxuan to buy paper and pen once anyway, and some people even come from other places to pay their respects and are willing to pay money, even if they buy a piece of paper, it is really a long-lived 'Hangzhou paper is expensive'.
The matter about Han Mo Xuan made the locals of Hangzhou talk about it for a day, and now, Yue Qingfeng has seen the real person in charge of Han Mo Xuan.
…… The head of Han Moxuan turned out to be the master of the Jiangnan Hall of the Xuantian Sect.
Thinking of Xi Yutang's appearance that he couldn't touch the piano, couldn't play chess, and was disgusted with reading, Yue Qingfeng couldn't speak for a long time.
…… He absolutely believed that Han Moxuan's incident was purely a coincidence. The so-called coincidence refers to the high probability of the person who bought the things in the Hanmoxuan store to be admitted to the fame, it is a coincidence, as for the publicity back then, I am afraid that the Xuantian Sect pushed it a little bit.
As for the purpose......
Yue Qingfeng thought a little more, and was shocked by his conclusion, and quickly stopped, and restrained his desire to explore deeply, and could only sigh that Xi Yutang's handwriting was big, and it really deserved to be her.
It's just that why she did this, he can't guess, so he can only wait for the opportunity to decrypt it later.
Seeing that he saw through his identity at a glance, Xue Yang was not surprised and generously admitted it. Although he doesn't talk much, he is delicate, and he has the internal news channels of Xuantian, and he has already seen that the young master of the Yue family and his own sect leader have shaken hands in private, and Yue Qingfeng is a smart and close demon, and not playing tricks in front of him is the right way to deal with it.
Seeing that Yue Qingfeng had already put away the letter, Xue Yang settled down and spoke, "The matter on the letter, the less the Lord wants?" ”
Yue Qingfeng pondered for a moment, and said casually, "When I arrived in Jiangnan, I had Han Moxuan as my back, and Yue thought that you were a noble sect, cough cough, at least there was no need to worry about the money." ”
Xue Yang shook his head and said succinctly, "What Han Moxuan has gained is of other use. ”
I see. Yue Qingfeng nodded, "In this case, you may be able to give it a try, and the specific details will be decided after meeting your master." ”
The younger Lord Chrysostom said this, everyone in the rivers and lakes knew this, Xue Yang made up his mind, and then he said Xi Yutang's message, "The master said, if you should go, let me convey two more sentences." First, although this is a win-win situation for both companies, she can promise to do one thing for you, answer two questions in exchange, and then give a thank you gift after the matter is completed. ”
Yue Qingfeng raised an eyebrow and motioned for him to continue.
"Second," Xue Yang paused, his calm expression seemed to be a little distorted, "The master has asked you to recuperate in the near future, and I will invite you to ...... in five days Drunken Flower Building. ”
As soon as the words fell, Qiu Yuan, who was making tea on the side, shook his hand, and the purple sand tea cup rolled onto the green bricks.
Yue Qingfeng was slightly stunned, rarely thought half a beat slower, and after correlating the drunken flower building with the impression in his memory, he suddenly coughed violently.
…… Qinglou?
She actually invited me to visit the Qinglou?!
