Chapter 3 The Shadow of Taihu Lake V
The three of you drank a few big bowls back and forth, there was a banquet and there were words, everyone recalled that when they were children by the Taihu Lake, Yu Shao stole the wine from home and hid in the woods to taste, Yin Xiaomei was waiting for them next to them, and also brought a lot of refreshments to drink, the bright-eyed Yin Xiaomei was generous, and drank the stolen wine like them, and the pride was not inferior to them, hugging and hugging them and calling them brothers, although everyone is a little child, but the feelings are true, everyone takes care of Yin Xiaomei's love for the stars and the moon, He also showed his light dance posture as light as a swallow to cheer them up. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiaohui and Nangong are envious of Yu Shao, a beautiful girl who has been together, and since then, Xiaohui and Nangong have secretly fallen in love with Yin Xiaomei.
Speaking of Yin Xiaomei, Xiaohui boldly said that he liked her with wine, "I have always liked Xiaomei, as long as she wants anything, I am willing to do anything for her." ”
Nangong is an introverted person, he usually likes Yin Xiaomei and deliberately does not reveal it, and he does not dare to express it emotionally, unlike Xiaohui, who can say things like 'I want to marry her when I grow up' to Yin Xiaomei, and I will also have no scruples about ** Yin Xiaomei. However, the wine is intimidating, Nangong drank more than ten bowls of wine, and he didn't care about anything for a long time, and said happily: "Me too, as long as my little sister likes it, I can do anything, and I can spare my life." ”
After the two finished speaking, they both looked at Yu Shao, they understood that Yin Xiaomei only had a soft spot for Yu Shao, but Yu Shao had no idea about Yin Xiaomei, and they also saw that Yu Shao liked Bai Mingyue very much. Yu Shao looked at the eyes of the two of them not very right, and said with a smile: "Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the River Continent. My Fair Lady, Gentleman. You don't have to look at me, Yin Xiaomei is very good, you should pursue it boldly, you don't need to take care of me, I have already seen that half of the reason is for Yin Xiaomei when you come to the Wang family's compound. ”
Xiaohui picked up a chopstick and knocked on the bowl, and said helplessly: "But Yin Xiaomei likes you, no matter how well I treat her, her heart has always been on you." ”
"Yu Shao, you haven't thought about Yin Xiaomei?" Nangong squinted at Yu Shao and said.
"Actually, I've always regarded her as a sister, the emotion is not that the two of them will change after a long time together, I really want her to be happy, but it's not the happiness I can give her." Yu Shao said seriously.
"I can also see that the relationship between you and Bai Mingyue is not ordinary." Nangong said: "When you chirped crookedly in my house yesterday, I actually saw it, and I pretended to continue to fall asleep for fear that you would be embarrassed." ”
"Bai Mingyue has only been here for a long time, and Yu Shao has hooked up." Xiaohui never thinks about what he says, and he doesn't say anything about Yu Shao.
"Can you or not, Yu Shaosheng is *** suave, and even women can't escape the palm of his hand." Nangong said.
"Yu Shao's charm is really great, Bai Mingyue can be melted by Yu Shao so cold, I really don't know what the secret is" Xiao Hui finished speaking to Yu Shao, and said to Nangong: "So they went to your Nangong family, aren't you here, you lived in Nanjing, I came back the day I received my father's book, is there any useful news." ”
"I haven't found the black-clothed aunt in Nanjing, and it's in vain to stay any longer, I set off and came back the day before yesterday, and I didn't want to meet Yu Shao and Bai Mingyue trapped in a tree in Xiaogong Mountain." Nangong simply talked about the situation of Yu Shao and Bai Mingyue in the Nangong family. Then he said to Xiaohui: "Yu Shao is still enough friends, seeing that I am fine, I set off early today to see you, I also happened to look for you to have something, but you dart, I heard that you came back at night, I wanted to stay in Wuxi for a day and wait for you, and when I came to Zuixian Lou, I met Yu Shao." ”
"Yu Shao, why don't you bring Yin Xiaomei and Bai Mingyue together this time." Xiaohui asked Yu Shao.
"I'm here this time for Nangong's business, and I'm also here to see the Huwei Dart Bureau, it's the first time I've stepped into the rivers and lakes, although I don't have much experience, I also know that the rivers and lakes are dangerous, I've already eaten a little embarrassed in the Nangong family, I can't take them with me when I walk the rivers and lakes, I don't want them to adventure." Yu Shao said.
"That's also, although my Nangong family is full of hidden weapons, it is only my clan, but in the Huwei Dart Bureau, I really have a lot of knowledge, and I can often see all kinds of people in the rivers and lakes arguing endlessly, and even fighting, they will be distracted instead." Nangong said.
"You are all my friends, Nangong often comes and goes to my house, but I didn't invite you Yu Shao, it's not that I don't talk about friends, you Yu Shao is not a person in the rivers and lakes, I don't want you to get involved in martial arts disputes." Xiaohui said to Yu Shao.
"I know your intentions, I didn't come to you to see the people in the rivers and lakes, just to see you." Yu Shao said.
"Just to come and see me, you should bring beautiful women." Xiaohui smiled.
"It seems that you don't want me to come, I hope that Yin Xiaomei will come to you." Yu Shao looked suddenly enlightened.
Nangong laughed out loud and said, "Yu Shao is right, the nasty embryo has such a dirty idea. ”
Xiaohui took a big sip of wine and said, "I miss Yin Xiaomei very much, and I am also angry that Yu Shao didn't bring it, so you Nangong thinks the same." After speaking, he looked at Nangong with a smile.
"It's okay, with the three of us protected, what danger can there be, Yu Shao is afraid that we robbed Yin Xiaomei, and no one will burn incense and make tea for him in the future." Nangong also frowned at Xiaohui.
"Well, Yin Xiaomei is lively and generous, not as indifferent as Bai Mingyue, if there is no Yin Xiaomei, the Wang family's compound will be deserted." Xiaohui nodded and said.
"Yu Shao, tell us what you think of Yin Xiaomei and Bai Mingyue." Nangong said, seeing that Yu Shao was squeezed by the two of them, he only cared about drinking and eating.
"I just said to Yin Xiaomei, she is like my relative, like my sister's feelings, the feeling of Bai Mingyue is like in a dream, there is a kind of tangled mood to say, I guess you are also like this to Yin Xiaomei." Yu Shao said.
Nangong and Xiaohui were stunned, and they couldn't deny it, admitting in their hearts that they had a Chicheng heart for Yin Xiaomei, and were entangled in the fact that although they were infatuated with Yin Xiaomei, Yin Xiaomei regarded them as brothers, and only loved Yu Shao, but Yu Shao was madly in love with Bai Mingyue, Yin Xiaomei and herself were just wishful thinking, everyone was friends who grew up together, and they couldn't blame each other.
"It seems that you Yu Shao is full of happiness, Xiaohui and Yin Xiaomei and I are all frustrated people, and the falling flowers are ruthless." Nangong said faintly.
Yu Shao thinks about it, although the two friends are talented, and they are also famous in the rivers and lakes, there should be many women who secretly plan to make promises to each other, but these two people are also infatuated, only infatuated with Yin Xiaomei, it is really like things gather, people are grouped, and they are also like-minded people, Yin Xiaomei and Bai Mingyue are not, a pair of infatuated children are tied together, it is inevitable that the sea of vinegar will rise and fall, and the love waves will roll.
The three of them did not vomit unhappily after drinking, after saying these words that are usually difficult to speak, they were a little drunk and hazy, and the wine could not be drunk, everyone helped each other out of the restaurant, came to the lakeside Liyuan, and lay on the porch bench in the Wanghu Pavilion.
Wuxi Liyuan is located in Qingqi Village on the west bank of Lihu Lake in the southwest of Wuxi City, named after Lihu Lake, and is also very close to the market. Legend has it that more than 2,000 years ago in the Spring and Autumn Period, after the Yue country doctor Fan Li helped the king of Yue to destroy Wu, he took the beautiful woman Xi Shi to go boating here, and the descendants named this lake after it in order to commemorate Fan Li. The lake surface of Lihu Lake is narrow, a corner of Wuxi Liyuan is narrow, the Baojie Bridge of more than 300 steps is divided into two by Lihu Lake, its lake scenery is easy, desolate, and victorious to the vastness, and the snow moon and smoke and rain have their own good scenes. There are simple scenic spots such as "Meibu Xiangxue", "Singing Orioles in the Willow Waves", "Spring Dawn on the South Causeway", "Watching Fish in Quyuan", "Dongying Beauty", "Guilin Tianxiang", "Fengtai Guqu", "Moonlight Waves" and other scenic spots, known as "Eight Views of Qingqi".
When Yu Shao woke up the next day, the sun was already shining, the lake was covered with countless golden scales, the lake was blowing a gust of wind, and the morning air was extremely fresh. There are many tourists here to enjoy the scenery and admire the charm of famous artists. Liyuan is the most prosperous place in Lihu Lake, visitors visit the lake view, all stop here to enjoy the scenery, the long willow embankment, the promenade near the water, the delicate bridge, the gorgeous pavilion, a good picture of "layered waves, snow waves smoke green". Yu Shao admired the boundless beauty, and when he saw that the tourists were here, the two guys were still in their dreams and felt indecent, so he pushed them awake, and the three of them looked at each other and laughed heartily for a while.
The three of them went to the market to buy breakfast, and then returned to Lihu Lake, and sat on a piece of grass that was not accessible to tourists.
"Nangong, what is the important thing you came to me?" Xiaohui opened his mouth and asked Nangong.
"Last night I told you about Yu Shao's encounter with a mysterious person in Xiaogong Mountain, do you remember?" Nangong said.
"I drank too much wine, but I remember this, Yu Shao must have come here for this time." Xiaohui looked at the two and said.
"I want you to help pay attention to whether there are any martial arts masters in Wuxi City, if there is, let me know, my Gongshan Island is close to your home, you can get there soon, but there is nothing important, recently my Nangong family has had accidents one after another, first stolen 'Feng Xueling', and then my housekeeper was inexplicably used' Feng Xueling's death, was seen by Yu Shao, Yu Shao found the man in black again in Xiaogong Mountain, all the series of things made me anxious, my eldest brother has not come back until now, not even a message, I can only ask you and Yu Shao for help. Nangong said.
"This is a matter of duty, you don't have to come in person, let someone send a letter, I have arranged for someone to take a closer look in this area." After Xiaohui finished speaking, he turned his head towards Yu Shao.
"It's not Nangong's business that I came to find you, but maybe it's related." Yu Shao said.
Nangong Ling and Xiaohui both showed puzzled looks, and they all said "oh" in unison, turning their eyes to Yu Shao.
"In the family affairs you talked about yesterday, Nangong mentioned that there was a ** thief, and he also held a dart in the Huwei Dart Bureau." Yu Shao said.
"That's what my eldest brother talked about, it's been many years, what does this **thief have to do with me." Nangong was even more puzzled and said.
"You didn't mention the news of the ** thief later, I think it's strange, although it was many years ago, how could it disappear for no reason." Yu Shao said.
"I know a lot, and my eldest brother didn't mention what happened later, this kind of ** thief is discredited in the rivers and lakes, everyone shouts and beats, maybe he can't stay in the Central Plains and escapes." Nangong said.
"But you once said that this person's martial arts is a first-class good player, how many people have not been able to hold it, and there is no follow-up after the appearance of the Wuxi Huwei Dart Bureau, I don't think it makes sense." Yu Shao said: "He once came into contact with the Huwei Dart Bureau, and Xiaohui's father also personally darts for him, and I wanted to know the details when I looked for Xiaohui." ”
"You **prodigal son came to me for a **thief, it's not a glorious thing, you are a fellow believer." Xiaohui grinned and talked nonsense. "My father mentioned this matter, and he didn't elaborate on it, and he didn't know as much as Nangong."
Nangong is also thinking about what this lewd thief has to do with what happened to him, but he really has no connection, although he appeared for the last time in Wuxi City many years ago, it is impossible to lurk on Gongshan Island or Xishan Town, and the person who stole 'Feng Xueling' is obviously a woman, and it is two people, is it really related to this lewd thief, Nangong will have no clue for a while, only look at Yu Shao.
"I'm thinking, this ** thief directly found the Huwei Dart Bureau, and named the person who named the general knife to personally protect the sub-Xiang Batian, to explain one point, this ** thief is very familiar with the martial arts in Jiangnan, and can know the name of the Huwei Dart Bureau and Xiang Batian, and he also wears a human skin mask, maybe he knows Xiang Batian." Yu Shao analyzed.
"Xiaohui's father has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for decades, and he single-handedly founded the Huwei Dart Bureau, which can be described as famous, and it is not difficult to know this." Nangong said. Xiaohui was very happy to hear Nangong praise his father, and squinted his eyes to listen to the conversation between the two.
"I know Xiang Batian, maybe I also know your eldest brother, the two of you are martial arts families around the Taihu Lake in the south of the Yangtze River, and they are also famous families that cannot be underestimated in the entire martial arts, not to mention that your eldest brother has been on Gongshan Island when he first entered the rivers and lakes to make friends in the world. But there are rules to follow, people who are proficient in these are not nothing, they know some of the tricks, with their ingenuity, they can still be cracked in a small range, the ** thief may be a person who is proficient in this way, martial arts are so good, the intelligence should not be bad there, your eldest brother invites friends to go to the island to learn from it, after seeing the defense of Gongshan Island, he secretly studied the way to crack, after a few years of calculation, he sent people to the island, and it is rumored in the martial arts that the Nangong family not only has a family heirloom, After several generations of collection, the martial arts cheats are comparable to the Shaolin Scripture Pavilion. Yu Shao said methodically.
"My family's book collection place 'Tianshui Pavilion', the black shadow you saw last night is there, no one goes up here except me and my eldest brother, the first floor is a place with dense organs, and the second floor is the place where books are stored, people dare not go in, and there are people guarding it every day, 'Meteor Tribulus' and' Feng Xueling's was also placed there, I didn't notice anything unusual, until you said that the black mole servant who guarded the door died, I noticed that this place was no longer safe, I put all the important cheats in my sister-in-law's room, let him take care of it, although my sister-in-law doesn't know martial arts, but there are many strong martial arts clan people around to protect it, but no one dares to be presumptuous. ”
"You're also smart, it's good to arrange it like this, the aunt in black is estimated to appear." Yu Shao then talked about the ** thief: "After studying the layout of the island for a few years, the ** thief also figured out that there is a secret passage and two island necklaces, maybe he can easily steal your 'Feng Xueling' without going through the traps everywhere." He started to do it when he was in the dark when your eldest brother was out for a long time. Yu Shao guessed: "This treasure of the Nangong family and the attractive martial arts cheats everyone wants to keep for themselves, with this invincible secret weapon, one person can pick dozens of martial arts masters, and also know that this 'Tianshui Pavilion' is the important place of the Nangong family, there must be someone to take care of it, the door may know him, he arranged for two women to steal it, and after getting the 'Feng Xueling', he was discovered by you, so he didn't care about the martial arts cheats, and the second time he came was discovered by me and Bai Mingyue, and it didn't succeed, now you are tracking it everywhere, and it won't come in the near future." ”
Nangong admired Yu Shao's logical analysis ability, and felt very reasonable after listening to him, **The thief disappeared in Wuxi, maybe he really lived in seclusion in Jiangnan, plotting the accumulation of several generations of the Nangong family. Although Yu Shao's idea is far-fetched, it is not impossible, Nangong Ling said to Yu Shao with some gratitude: "Although you are an average martial artist, you will never suffer, such a good mind, it seems that my affairs will definitely drag you into the water." ”
Xiaohui also admired his analytical ability, and after listening to them, he nodded his head and said: "You say that this ** thief is indeed a little suspicious, at least he disappeared mysteriously in this area, and now there are no clues to track down the woman and aunt, so let's find out the origin of the ** thief first." ”
"Now I have a question, I don't know what kind of treasure this **thief entrusted back then, and he needs Xiaohui's father to escort him to such a distant place." Yu Shao thought about it: "And this person must have someone he knows in Goguryeo, but the journey is far away, otherwise he can go and investigate." ”
"**You can ask my father about the dart entrusted by the thief, and you can also know who received the dart, but it will take half a year to check it, and now I have to wait for Brother Nangong to come back." Xiaohui said.
"My eldest brother went out this time to prepare for going far away, maybe he went to the north, and it would be good to wait for him to come back to discuss, but I don't know when he will come back, and now I am already anxious." Nangong said impatiently.
"Don't worry, there are no clues now, just follow the ** thief to start investigating first, although it's just a far-fetched idea, but if you check it, maybe there will be new clues coming out, and if you don't check the clues, there won't be more." Yu Shao said.
"Well, Yu Shao is right, go to my house first and ask my father, Yu Shao has not entered the gate of my house yet, and when he enters the gate of my house, he should step into the rivers and lakes for the first time." Xiaohui stood up after speaking.
Nangong and Yu Shao also stood up and followed Xiaohui to the Huwei Dart Bureau. The three of them walked unhurriedly through the market.
"Xiaohui, I want to go with you once, so it's an eye-opener, I don't know if your father agrees." Yu Shao said.
"As long as you are not afraid of risks, your father agrees to let you have adventures, my father is no problem, my father has taken me with him since I was a child, and I have also experienced a lot of people who have robbed darts in big wars." Xiaohui talked about the Jiangnan process of darts.
"Well, I really want to go out to experience the experience, I don't have the heart to take the exam to become an official, and I don't practice my internal skills, and I am idle and bored at home, so I want to go out and see the world." Yu Shao said seriously.
Nangong was silent, still thinking about Yu Shao's analysis of the plot.
"It's a bit manly that you are willing to leave behind two stunning beauties, but it's bitter that Yin Xiaomei and Bai Mingyue are lovesick in front of the window." After speaking, Xiaohui laughed slyly. Nangong and Yu Shao also laughed.
After laughing, the three of them saw the dart cart of the Huwei Dart Bureau parked at the gate, and the triangular huss flag fluttered in front, and it seemed that they were going to dart again.
