[Chapter 78 I met an acquaintance] turned into ashes and recognized it

Hearing Duan Baiyue's words, a trace of horror flashed in Huang Li's eyes, knowing that he might really be arrested this time, but he didn't give up, and turned his eyes for help to Duan Yao.

Duan Yao held the sword in both hands and stood behind Sikong Rui with an indifferent expression.

"Excuse me." The man at the head hugged his fist and thanked him, and then stepped forward to pull the person to his side, but he didn't expect Huang Li to suddenly sweep away his hand, turn around and rush to the window in a few steps, and jumped down.

"Hey!" The group of people who came to arrest her were all shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly rushed to the window, even Duan Yao's heart was empty, but Duan Baiyue only smiled slightly and glanced at Sikong Rui.

I have long seen that this little girl can do kung fu, she walks lightly and flexibly, and her eyes are alert, and the seven or eight men in front of her add up, I am afraid that she can't help her.

Sure enough, after the yellow bird landed on the street, he rolled on the spot, patted his clothes and stood up. He didn't stop for a moment, he squeezed through the crowd and ran into the distance. None of the people on the street expected that a person would suddenly fall from the sky, and they were all looking up and pointing by the way. The man at the head watched Huang Li run farther and farther, holding the hidden weapon in his hand and almost wanted to open it, but because the street was full of people, he was afraid that it would be difficult to explain if he was injured by mistake, so he had to watch her back disappear into the alley.

Duan Baiyue reminded: "Why don't you hurry up and arrest someone?" ”

"Follow me!" The man waved his hand and chased after him with others.

Duan Baiyue said: "Go ahead, be careful to expose your identity." ”

Duan Yao nodded, turned around and walked out the door.

Sikong Rui sighed: "You and I haven't done anything here, so we already have trouble finding ourselves at the door." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "It's not a trouble, what I was looking for was this killer gang." ”

Although the name of the gang is difficult to describe, if you want to find a killer or a bodyguard, in the hearts of the people of the White Elephant Country, the first reaction is to find the head of the bag - after all, the business is large and the road is wide. And the killer who stabbed Chu Yuan in Chu State before was also from this sword gang.

"The man by the window just now took out a hidden weapon, can you see what it is?" Duan Baiyue asked again.

Sikong Rui thought for a moment and said, "You mean that wooden box?" ”

Duan Baiyue nodded: "That's called the Ghost Wood Box, and the place of origin is Dayan City, Chu State." Because it is extremely vicious, it is expressly forbidden by the government to make it. It's a pity that some people take risks for the sake of profit, colluding with Nanyang merchants to sell, and at least tens of thousands of pieces have flowed out. ”

Sikong Rui was dissatisfied: "Such a powerful secret weapon, you actually didn't take one for me by the way?" ”

Duan Baiyue said: "Just give it to you, maybe it's okay to give it to your younger siblings, it's estimated that it's better than a washboard." ”

Sikong Rui surrendered: "You win, when I didn't say anything." ”

Duan Baiyue smiled: "Tomorrow, I will go to Dadu's house to see if I can find out Chu Xiang's whereabouts in the name of doing business." ”

Sikong Rui nodded, and he also wanted to know very much what kind of person he was to endure such a thunderous name as Bao Da's belly.

Night gradually fell, and the people of the city began to go home to rest. In a quiet deserted house in the west, the weeds are more than a foot long, and the branches of the trees reflect mottled black shadows on the wall, hideous like ghosts. Timid people don't say they live, even if they just look at it, they will feel scared.

A figure huddled in a corner, almost embedded in the wall, did not move for a long time, not knowing whether it was alive or dead.

Duan Yao casually threw a pebble over.

The figure stood up instantly, and the cold light in his hand flashed under the moonlight, but he was holding a dagger.

Duan Yao said: "It's me." ”

After Huang Li saw his face clearly, he was slightly stunned, and then took a step back, not saying a word.

"My brothers and I are here to do business, not to find trouble. You came running without saying a word during the day, and there was a group of family members behind you, so we naturally couldn't interfere. Duan Yao said, "But I see that you also have some skills, you can get rid of so many men, and you can come here alone to hide." ”

Huang Li still didn't speak.

"Let's go." Duan Yao said, "Now that no one is following, take you back to the inn." ”

Huang Li said: "You don't need to take me back to the inn, if the young man is kind, send me to the dock and find a kind owner." ”

Duan Yao said: "I won't tell you, I just came back from the dock, and now there are people searching and patrolling everywhere, locals have to register their identities when they go to sea, and foreign merchants want to leave, they must first report when they arrived in the White Elephant Country, and they can only leave after verifying that they are correct." At this moment, even the kind-hearted owner of the ship will not be able to take you away. ”

Huang Li's face became more and more pale, but he also knew that according to Bao Dadu's temper and financial resources, it was indeed possible to lay a net of heaven and earth, just to catch himself back.

"So, you'd better come back to the inn with me first." Duan Yao said, "This deserted house won't be safe for long, and besides, you can't stop eating or drinking." ”

Huang Li hesitated, but still followed Duan Yao and returned to the city with him.

There are only a lot more patrols on the streets than there are in the port. However, Duan Yao's light skills were extraordinary, and it was easy to bring her back to the inn. Duan Baiyue and Sima Rui were chatting, and when they saw Huang Li entering the door, they said with a smile: "The girl is so fast in the daytime. ”

Huang Li was holding the burden, still a little apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't know what to say.

Duan Baiyue said: "Let's go back to the room to rest first, it's safe here, and no one will come to the door." ”

Huang Li's voice was very low: "Thank you, uncle." ”

Duan Yao took her to the next door. Sikong Rui said: "You and I are going to Jianmen tomorrow, but she came out of there, without asking a few words in advance?" It's good to have a bottom in my heart. ”

"When we meet in Pingshui, how do you know that she will definitely tell the truth." Duan Baiyue shook her head, "What's the matter, it's not too late to talk about it after tomorrow." ”

The night went by peacefully. Early the next morning, Duan Baiyue and Sikong Rui went out of the inn together, only to find that the door was closed when they arrived at the Sword Gate, and there was not even a gatekeeper, only a list was posted on the pillar, written in the White Elephant Country and Chu State characters, saying that the affairs in the house have been complicated recently, so there is no business for the time being, and the opening date is uncertain, please forgive Yunyun. When I asked the people around me again, they all said that it had been ten days since this notice was posted, and everyone was guessing the reason, but no one could say for sure.

"The day before, I was still doing business as usual, and the next day I closed for no reason, and it was closed for more than ten days." Sikong Rui said, "This is not like a businessman with brains. ”

Duan Baiyue was not surprised by this, he sent someone to assassinate the Great Chu Emperor and lost his hand, and everyone would panic, and it was not surprising to close the door to see the direction of the wind.

"Two guests, if you are in a hurry, you might as well go find the Golden Elephant Dart Bureau." There was someone next to him who understood Chinese, and when he saw that the two of them had been standing at the door, he said kindly, "In addition to the head of the bag, the Golden Elephant Dart Bureau is also one of the best dart games, and the boss is a local, and it is more than enough to escort some ordinary goods out to sea and into customs." ”

Duan Baiyue nodded: "Thank you." ”

"Just ahead, turn two corners." The other party was extremely enthusiastic, "The Sword Gate is not accepting business for the time being, and the Golden Elephant Dart Bureau is much more in demand, so the guests should go and have a look." ”

"To go or not?" Sikong Rui asked.

Duan Baiyue said: "Go naturally." "Peers are enemies, not to mention that the boss of the Golden Elephant Dart Bureau is still a local, and he has been pressed by outsiders for so many years, and it is unlikely that his heart will not be stalked at all.

The two followed the direction they pointed to, and along the way, they also heard some people talking about Huang Li, saying that Bao Dadu had been unlucky recently, and the business was inexplicably closed, not to mention, and he wanted to marry an aunt's wife, and he was shocked by the joy, and the people ran away again, and now they are still looking for it in the city, and I don't know if they can find it.

There are people in front of them shouting loudly, holding a large picture in their hands to attract customers, and many people will turn their heads to take a look when they pass by.

Sikong Rui also swept it and said, "The capital of the Great Chu Dynasty? It's really well drawn. ”

Duan Baiyue smiled: "Prosperity is quite prosperous, but it is still less than half of the real scene." Not to mention the New Year's holidays, even if it is just a monthly market, the streets are crowded with people and traffic. ”

Sikong Rui said: "In this way, that little emperor really has some skills, no wonder you insisted on helping him in the first place." ”

Duan Baiyue flashed into the calligraphy and painting shop.

Sikong Rui wondered, and also followed up: "What, do you want to sell paintings?" ”

Duan Baiyue flipped through a few casually and said, "Yes." ”

Looking at the enchanting dancing and turbulent Persian dancer on the paper, Sikong Rui said from the bottom of his heart: "It turns out that you are good at this." ”

Duan Baiyue: "......"

At the door of the calligraphy and painting shop, the young man smiled and greeted him in Goryeo, and after Sikong Rui heard it, he was also curious.

Duan Baiyue remained silent and kicked him.

Sikong Rui: "......"

Jin Shu smiled at the door, looked at Duan Baiyue's back for a while, and saw that he had no intention of turning around, so he left with the maid and servant and did not look back.

Sikong Rui saw the clue and said, "The one who is just now is the princess of Goryeo, right?" ”

Duan Baiyue dropped the portrait: "You really know everything." ”

Sikong Rui said: "Back then, it was so popular, everyone knew that Princess Goryeo fell in love with the king of the southwest, and there were people on the street betting on whether this marriage could be successful." ”

Duan Baiyue had a headache.

Sikong Rui reminded: "Jin Shu has seen you for so long, I'm afraid I will recognize you." ”

Duan Baiyue frowned.

"You and I came to the White Elephant Country this time, but I didn't plan to reveal our identities." Sikong Rui said, "If I were you, I would find a way to remind the Goryeo princess so as not to cause trouble again." ”

Duan Baiyue rubbed her temples and wanted to sigh.

Knowing this, I took a different path.

Sikong Rui continued to remind: "This has nothing to do with whether you wear a mask or not, if you really like someone, just look at the back, even just look at the hands, just listen to the voice, you can know whether it is the one in your heart." ”

Duan Baiyue said: "She has become a relative. ”

"I didn't say that Princess Goryeo still misses you now." Sikong Rui sighed, "If you liked it before, it is also called liking, if you reject someone, you can't love it, I'm afraid that I won't forget it in this life and this life, and it's useless to turn into ashes." ”
