In the evening, the fat aunt handed over the stupid girl to Nie Shuyao and instructed: "Girl, my daughter will be your person in the future." ”

Nie Shuyao actually didn't want Stupid Ya to be a maid, and said with a smile: "Fat aunt, now that the matter of the water ghost has been cleared, there is no need for Stupid Ya to be my maid." ”

Unexpectedly, these words made the stupid girl's eyes fill with tears, "Miss, don't you want to be stupid?" Didn't you say that I just started calling Shuilan when I left here? Stupid likes the name and follows Miss. ”

"This ......, stupid girl might as well ask your father, if he agrees, I don't mind having a little maid." Nie Shuyao said, after all, the original owner of Lijiazhai was also a master, and it was not good to let the direct descendants be the next people.

The stupid girl immediately turned to crying and laughing, "I'll go now, my father loves me the most." ”

"Hehe, this kid!" The fat aunt showed her love.

Nie Shuyao felt that this fat aunt was really a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and she thought she was not good to the stupid girl before, but now it seems that she thinks too much.

It didn't take long for Li Dashan to come into the house, and he also solemnly handed over the stupid girl to Nie Shuyao, "My stupid girl will trouble Miss Nie." In this mountain, she can only dig in the soil like me, and it is always good to go out and see the world, we believe in the girl! ”

Nie Shuyao saw that he said this honestly, and admired in his heart, not everyone can give up the wealth and status that originally belonged to them.

Early the next morning, everyone packed up and returned the way they came. It's just that there are five more people, and the line seems a bit long.

They left early, and the people of Qingshui Village didn't know that the benefactor who saved them from fire and water had left.

The old man's car led the way in front, then Song Yunfei and the others, and finally Jiang Yi, Feng Wuya and Nie Tianxi. Nie Shuyao's carriage was guarded in the middle.

The three girls were in the car, and they came smoothly all the way to the lower reaches of the Qingshui River. Coincidentally, it was still the ferryman at the beginning.

After getting out of the carriage, Nie Shuyao said to the old man with an unnatural face: "Old man, your memory is really bad?" Are you sure we're on the wrong track? How I feel as if I've walked through. ”

The old man's face was not good-looking, but he completely ripped off the fig leaf when he said this, and frowned: "Girl, didn't the old man say it?" Just now I remembered the way to actually go to Huaishu Village. ”

Nie Shuyao said without pity: "Tell me? If you don't remember, I'll talk to Brother Feng about it. Brother Feng grew up in Yangzhou since he was a child, and he is very familiar with the surrounding situation. ”

"This ...... This Huaishu village seems to be in the area of Guazhou in the southwest of Yangzhou. The old man finally grabbed his head and settled his position.

"What!" Nie Shuyao let out a low roar, glared at the old man, and said hatefully, "Dead old man, are you entertaining us?" ”

"Huh!" The old man broke the jar and said shamelessly: "Girl, my jade pendant is not so easy to take. ”

"You ......."

At this moment, the ferryman was calling for the next one.

The old man arched his hand and drove the carriage neatly onto the big ferry.

Nie Shuyao looked at the old man who was rushing to the ferry, and the corners of his mouth opened a beautiful arc, "The fox's tail seems to be exposed too much." ”

In front of him, the old man jumped from the car to the ferry boat quickly, not at all like an old man, and it seemed that he had a lot of strength to pull the horse.

The upstream and downstream of the Qingshui River can be said to be two completely different rivers, although they are both called the Qingshui River; There is only one branch in the upper reaches, but in the lower reaches there are every stream and river in the mountains, and slowly in this place a zài like an inland river is formed. The Qingshui River was cut off for a few days, and it did not affect the water depth here.

It's still the same as when she came, after everyone has passed, Nie Shuyao boarded the light boat alone, but it was Song Yunfei who would accompany her.

Jiang Wan'er looked at Jiang Yi, who had been focusing on Nie Shuyao on the other side of the river, and sighed slightly in her heart, when did the senior brother's eyes always focus on herself.

But at the same time, he felt a little lucky, fortunately, Nie Shuyao didn't like his senior brother, and he was also happy to watch Song Yunfei curry favor with Nie Shuyao from time to time.

After crossing the river, they made a quick journey, and only in the evening did they reach a certain inn, where they planned to spend the night.

As soon as they arrived at the post station, Nie Shuyao called Feng Wuya and Jiang Yi, Nie Tianxi and Song Yunfei outside the door, and the three of them discussed something in the room in a whisper.

In front of them was the parchment scroll that he had obtained from the bandits at the Ruyi Inn, and Feng Wuya was carefully inspecting it.

"Brother Feng, do you see what's coming?" Nie Shuyao asked.

Feng Wuya said: "This map is indeed a map of the surroundings of Yangzhou, and compared with the places we have walked, I found a very interesting phenomenon." ”

Nie Shuyao and Jiang Yi glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Speak quickly!" ”

Feng Wuya smiled gently, that face really wasn't what a man should have, but unfortunately the attention of the two people in the room was not here, and he urged again and again, "Say it quickly." ”

Before speaking, Feng Wuya asked, "Is this really found from that Du Leopard?" ”

"Exactly." Jiang Yi said succinctly.

"That's right. I think this Du Leopard is the 'Leopard Master' in Qingshui Village! Feng Wuya affirmed.

Hearing him say this, Nie Shuyao also felt that there was this possibility, and at the same time, he thought of the "important plan" that Du Bao and the others had said, and said: "Could Du Bao's plan be to pretend to be a ghost?" In order to achieve some ulterior purpose! ”

"Highly likely!" Feng Wuya nodded to Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi asked, "Brother Feng, tell me what you found?" ”

Feng Wuya smiled: "I found the old man who followed us all the way very interesting. ”

One sentence reaffirmed the suspicion of the old man. Feng Wuya found that the route taken by the old man coincided with some of the points marked on the map.

Starting from Ganjiatun, the old man has actually walked according to the points on this map. However, there are places where he didn't stop, but Qingshui Village was just a very ordinary one of this point, but he stopped, obviously, Qingshui Village is unusual.

It turns out that Qingshui Village is indeed unusual, because there is a Li family village in the forest across the river from Qingshui Village.

Nie Shuyao asked: "The old man said that Huaishu Village is located in the southwest of Yangzhou in the area of Guazhou, should we go to Yangzhou first?" ”

Feng Wuya said: "Yes, now we are close to Yangzhou. There is a Suiling County in front, and you can go directly to Yangzhou after there. ”

"Suiling?" Nie Shuyao muttered to herself, recalling her geographical knowledge.

Suiling is also known as Jiashan, Mingguang. It borders Nanqiao District, Chuzhou City; It is bordered by the Huai River in the north and Wuhe County; It is adjacent to Xuyi, Hongxian and other counties in Jiangsu Province in the east; It is adjacent to Dingyuan and Fengyang counties in the west. It's a small county, but the location is good.

"It turns out that the old man took us to a big turn!" Nie Shuyao sneered, "Isn't it a big bend to go from Xuzhou Mansion to Fengyang Mansion?" How many unjust roads have been taken. Is he too confident? Or do you think everyone else is a fool? ”

Jiang Yi said: "I'm afraid he has his own plans." ”

Nie Shuyao lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows, and said in his heart: "It should be for the treasure map." However, they don't know about this thing, Brother Jiang. ”

Feng Wuya asked, "Then what do we do next?" ”

Nie Shuyao said with a smile: "Let's go to Yangzhou first, and tomorrow we will stay in Suiling to see the scenery here." ”

This is the birthplace of Ming Taizu, can you take a good look since you came? Nie Shuyao came to Yangzhou for sightseeing.

Early the next morning, everyone rushed to Suiling without stopping.

At this time, it was already autumn, the weather was no longer so hot, and the horses were running fast, and they arrived at this small county town in the early afternoon.

The county town looks a little similar to Qu County, although the city wall seems to be newly repaired, but the city gate is old.

Nie Shuyao and his party all had their own paths, so they entered the city along the way.

Since everyone is riding horses, it has attracted a lot of attention in the small county town. Under this gaze, they had to go to the best inn in the county, the Xiangtai Inn.

Nie Shuyao lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at this small county town, the buildings here are unique, different from the northerner of Qu County, and the blue bricks and green tiles constitute a beautiful appearance. The eaves of the corridor are bent and scattered, and the brick carvings used for decoration are also unique; Red lanterns are mostly hung under the porches, and the banners that stretch out from time to time add a lot of liveliness to the street.

The carriage line on the main street was avoided by people along the way, their eyes showing envy. Seeing this, Nie Shuyao lost interest, he knew that it was such an ordinary small county, and it was better to stay at the post station to save trouble.

"Sister, the inn has arrived." When the carriage stopped, Nie Tianxi opened the door for her.

When she arrived at the lively place, Nie Shuyao changed into women's clothes again, and also used a hat that she hadn't worn for a long time, dressed up as a young lady who went out of the house.

The façade of Xiangtai Inn looks good, and the big characters of Doujin shine straight to people's eyes; On both sides of the gate hung red lanterns that almost fell to the ground, and on both sides there were mighty stone lions; The shopkeeper was standing in front of the door, and he was not as anxious as the junior in other inns to come forward to attract customers.

This qiē shows that this inn has a backstage, don't go here without silver!

Nie Shuyao got out of the car, and Song Yunfei took the two little guys into the car to make a good point. At this time, the shopkeeper who was standing diligently went up to lead the horse and led the carriage to the side door.

They had more horses, and Leng Zi and Song Qing also came to help. Nie Shuyao and Nie Tianxi walked into the inn with their suitcases.

Probably the internal structure of the ancient Grand Inn is the same, although it is large, it is similar to the structure of the Ruyi Inn, with a wooden staircase in the middle, which can lead to any floor.

Their rooms were arranged on the third floor, and the shopkeeper showed them the way one by one.

After Nie Shuyao and his party went upstairs, the shopkeeper, who was originally giggling, waved at a certain shopkeeper on the side and said in a low voice: "Can you see their appearance clearly?" Go to the county government and tell them carefully to the county magistrate. ”

The shopkeeper is not good-looking, with small eyes and a big mouth, and said with a smile: "Please rest assured, although the small eyes are small, they can be lit, and I promise to bring the words." ”R1152
