Chapter 55: The Grace of Saving Lives
The shopkeeper looked around, leaned over slightly, and whispered, "Later, I heard that an Oiran felt that he had been wronged, so he jumped into the river not far from here." ”
Speaking of this, the shopkeeper paused, frowned, and then said suspiciously, "But it's strange to say, I heard that after the Oiran jumped into the water, she didn't see her body surface, and everyone salvaged it for several days without salvage." ”
"Many people speculate that the body of the Oiran may have drifted down the water, and some people say that the Oiran was eaten by the big fish in the water, and this matter is still a mystery to this day."
"Hey," said the shopkeeper at the end, shaking his head and sighing, as if he was complaining about which Oiran was again.
At this time, the guest officer next door suddenly called, "Xiao Er, come to the pot of wine." ”
"Holo." The shopkeeper immediately came back to his senses and stood up straight and replied, then turned his head to look at Nangong Duyu and the others, and said with a smile, "Guest officer, you eat slowly, the little one is busy." ”
"Go ahead." Nangong Duyu waved his hand and said, and then the shopkeeper picked up the white towel on his shoulder and walked towards the guest officer next door.
Dongzi glanced at Nangong Duyu, swallowed his saliva and said, "Childe, since there is so much restlessness here, I think we should go back to Jingyuming Prince, don't stay here anymore." ”
Nangong Duyu glanced up at him, and said unhappily, "Dongzi, I will report the matter here to my eldest brother, if you want to go back, I won't stop you, but you must not persuade me to go back, otherwise I don't mind throwing you out of here." ”
"But......" It's dangerous here Before the five words were spoken, Dongzi was cold on his back by Nangong Duyu's cold gaze, and finally had to pick up the chopsticks in the bamboo tube and eat the dishes on the plate indiscriminately.
Fuyuko knew that if he said one more word at the end, he would definitely be thrown out by his son-in-law, so the best thing to do now was to eat.
Nangong Duyu saw that he was burying his head in the hard work, so he took back his cold gaze, but he was thinking about what the shopkeeper said just now, it seems that in the half a month since he left, a lot of things have really happened in this Danyang town.
However, he was quite interested in which of the oiran mentioned by the shopkeeper, and he actually used the trick of jumping into the river to prove that he was wronged, which was quite interesting.
Before that, they walked out of the inn, Dongzi followed behind Nangong Duyu, and the two came to the door of a post house, Nangong Duyu shook the fan in his hand, glanced around the post house, and said lightly.
"Dongzi, let's stay here for the time being, you hurry up and go in and pay the money."
"Yes, Childe." Dongzi nodded and said, just about to raise his feet and walk into the post house, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, turned his head to look at him, and wondered.
"Childe, aren't you going in with Fuyuko?"
"Hmm." Nangong Duyu shook his fan in response, and then said, "Dongzi, I have other things, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to take you, now you can wait for me in the post house for the time being, and when I finish the matter, I will naturally come to the post house to find you." ”
Dongzi looked like he wanted to cry, and cried and said, "Childe, you won't be annoyed by Dongzi, so you plan to throw Dongzi here, right?" ”
Nangong Duyu glanced at him, withdrew the fan in his hand with a "swish", knocked his head and said, "If I wanted to throw you, I would have thrown you in Kyoto, why wait until now, okay, don't think nonsense, wait for me at the post house obediently." ”
As soon as the words fell, Dongzi saw that he had already walked towards the crowd, Dongzi originally planned to accompany him, but now it seems that his son-in-law did not plan to take him, for this reason, Dongzi had to walk into the post house in frustration.
After Nangong Duyu left the post house, he came to the bridge where he met Jiuyue last time, and his intuition told him that as long as he returned here, he would still have a chance to see him, and the reason why he came here from Kyoto this time was to see her, hoping that God would give him a chance.
It's a pity that he stood at the head of the bridge and waited for several hours and didn't see her appear, and when the time came, Nangong Duyu withdrew the fan he was shaking in his hand, looked up at the sky, and sighed.
"Looks like I won't meet her tonight."
For some reason, he felt very lost in his heart, at this time, the white snake hidden in the water had quietly come ashore, and she was dressed in white clothes and walked over from the other end of the bridge.
The big glazed eyes sparkled, like black shining stones, and the eyes were fleeting. The cherry sip vermilion is not dotted. A head of hair lightly pulls the silver jade purple moon hairpin, like a captivating city, as if floating like a fairy.
Nangong Duyu, who was just about to leave, was so attracted by the white figure at the head of the bridge, and his mouth unconsciously called out.
"Miss Nine Moons."
The white snake who came over heard the man calling the name of the Nine Moon Girl, and was stunned for a moment, and then wondered, "Could it be that this man knows the Nine Moon Girl?" ”
Nangong Duyu saw that her eyes were full of strangeness to him, and strode towards the white snake, and said in a happy tone, "Miss Jiuyue, it's me, Nangong Duyu, have you forgotten me?" ”
Seeing him walking towards him, the white snake was even more sure that this man knew the Jiuyue girl, and glanced Nangong Duyu up and down, only to see that he was dressed in a blue brocade robe, holding a white folding fan in his hand, a golden belt around his waist, and a pair of black boots on his legs.
Looking at the other party's gaze, a touch of loss flashed in Nangong Duyu's eyes, but he didn't expect that in just half a month, Miss Jiuyue didn't remember him, which really hurt him.
After a long while, White Snake spoke, "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”
"Miss Jiuyue, do you remember me?" Nangong Duyu said with a smile.
"Hmm." The white snake nodded and responded, now she has transformed into the face of the Nine Moon girl, in order not to prevent the stuffing from being exposed, even if she doesn't know her, she has to pretend to know, so that she can continue to arrest Hua Jing and save her life.
Nangong Duyu saw her nodding, a smile flashed in her eyes, and she said with a smile, "Miss Jiuyue, last time I was in a coma due to Nangong's serious injury, so I haven't had the opportunity to thank Miss Jiuyue, and I came here today Nangong just with the mentality of trying, I didn't expect to really meet Miss Jiuyue again, and now Nangong just wants to say thank you to Miss Jiuyue in person, thank you Miss Jiuyue for saving her life last time." ”
After speaking, Nangong Duyu saluted her with his hands folded, a complicated color flashed in the white snake's eyes, and he stretched out his hands to support his arms, and said coldly.
"Nangong Gongzi is strict, Jiuyue saving Gongzi is just a gesture, not enough to make Nangong Gongzi worry about it, now Nangong Gongzi's gratitude Jiuyue has understood it in his heart, if Nangong Gongzi has nothing to do, then Jiuyue will leave first."
