I took the liberty to come here today, and I have to bear with you if you are offended. ”

"Where is the prince! This side please. ”

The two of them arrived in front of a quiet room one after the other, Zhou Fang lightly knocked on the door, and called in a deep voice: "The landlord." ”

A delicate voice came from the room: "Zhou Fang, what's the matter?" Who are you with? ”

"Landlord, outside the door is the arrival of King Dingtian."

Shi Xianqiao sighed in surprise, the door opened, Shi Xianqiao looked at the two people outside the door with surprise, and laughed loudly: "I don't know that the prince is coming to the cold house, the old man has lost his welcome, and I hope that the prince will forgive me." ”

"The owner of the building is serious, it is I who came uninvited and disturbed the owner of the building."

"Where, lord, please sit down inside and talk."

Li Luo nodded with a smile, let Zhou Fang take a step, not too polite, and walked into this quiet hut. The room is not large, but the layout is very elegant, with most of the things of books, and few vulgar things such as pearls and jade. On the east side of the room, a long table was filled with silk books and account books. Half of the floor is famous, but the seat of the owner of this building is indeed not something that everyone can sit on.

Shi Xianqiao saw Li Luo looking around the room with interest, and glanced at Zhou Fang very quickly, with an inquiring meaning in his eyes, I don't know what the intention of this sudden visit His Royal Highness of the Dynasty is. Zhou Fang shook his head slightly, and he didn't know what Li Luo's trip was.

"Lord Wang, sit. Zhou Fang, there is still some of the first snow plum blossom tea you brought back last time, take some out of that jar over there. Shi Xianqiao smiled, "The disciples in the building like to drink a lot, but they don't drink much tea." The plum blossom brew brought back by Zhou Fang and the prince went to Wanmei Garden is long gone, and these boys wander around the door every day, trying to steal wine and drink, but they still don't stay until you come back. ”

Li Luo and Zhou Fang looked at each other and smiled, plum blossom brewing is the best product in the wine, and it is also the top grade of Wanmei Garden, no wonder these heroes in Banfenlou are so covetous.

Li Luo smiled: "Then fortunately, I opened an altar with Brother Zhou first and tasted the aroma of wine, haha." There are still some Qingzhou people in my house who are old, and I will send someone to send a few altars over later. ”

Shi Xianqiao was stunned, although Li Luo spoke casually and naturally, he did not hide his intimacy, which made Shi Xianqiao's heart a little strange for a while, but there was no different color on his face, and he still talked and laughed.

Zhou Fang made the tea and brought it over, the tea fragrance overflowed, and the smell was drunk, even the old and steady half-cent landlord couldn't help but take a deep breath of the tea fragrance, and praised: "Good tea, really good tea, the plum blossom tea on the Wanli Cloud Snow Mountain can be called the best in the world, it's a pity." ”

Even if someone can go up to Chaomu Mountain and enter Wanmei Garden decades later, the Wanmei Garden at that time is no longer the Wanmei Garden of the year, and the plum blossom fairy named Cangyang Jiahe must not be there.

"It's a pity that Wanmeiyuan not only produces plum blossom tea and plum blossom brew, but also hides a secret story of the rivers and lakes. Master Shilou, your experience in the rivers and lakes is far better than mine, I don't know if you have heard of anything? ”

"The prince has a good reputation." Shi Xianqiao paused slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Wanmeiyuan has indeed heard of it for a long time, and Banfenlou has also had a little friendship with Wangmei's He family, and the inextricable relationship between the He family and Wanmeiyuan is inextricably linked, but it is not like the He family's Wanmeiyuan rumored in the rivers and lakes." This time, Zhou Fang came back to tell the ins and outs of the old Wanmei Garden, and it was exactly the same as my guess, the He family was just the gatekeeper of Wanmei Garden, and the real master of Wanmei Garden was someone else, and it was a hidden clan that had been passed down for thousands of years. ”

Li Luo's expression was far away, remembering what happened in the Wanmei Garden. The order of Wanmei Garden, the formation of those plum trees after the nine passes, the palace in the middle of Wanmei Garden that looks like a ghost boat but is much smaller, and the big stone in front of the blue water pool outside the Genting Heavenly Palace, and now Li Luo's name is also on it, and the names of Lianshan and Guigu are engraved on it, which makes Li Luo surprised but feels as if it is taken for granted.

"Don't hide it from the prince, back then, the old man had secretly sent someone to track down the origin of Wanmeiyuan, but there was no useful news. However, by chance, I learned that there seems to be such an incognito ancient clan elsewhere in Dagan, not just Wanmei Garden. ”

Li Luo was stunned, his heart sank slightly, towards the Wanmei Garden of Mushan, the Night Frost Town at the end of Tiannan, and the alien tombs under the Immortal Peak, the ghost ships of the East China Sea that glimpsed at a glimpse, and the Mukuo Kingdom that had broken off the inheritance in the Western Regions, all seemed to hide a trace of imminent separation, and there was a bit of similar and familiar mystery in the strangeness, which made people have nowhere to focus on it, and they couldn't wait to ignore it.

"I see, I don't know if the ancient clan found by the predecessors back then can be recorded in the Dagan books?" Li Luo asked quietly.

"Nope." Shi Xianqiao shook his head regretfully, and said, "These clans are extremely low-key and secretive, and the old man only noticed some clues, but except for the known Wanmei Garden, the old man actually did not find the exact whereabouts of these clans, and the names are even more unknown, but," Shi Xianqiao paused, glanced at Li Luo, who was listening carefully, and continued in a deep voice, "The old man has a suspicion. ”

"Oh, please also ask the seniors to teach me."

"The old man suspects that the Tang family in Shuzhou may be a family from ancient times, but there is no evidence, it's just a guess."

Li Luo was stunned for a while, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, if the Tang family was an ancient clansman, although he didn't know whether it was evil or good for these clansmen to live in seclusion everywhere in Dagan, but Li Luo, who had no reason, felt a chill in his vest, and only felt a little chill in his heart.

"Have you ever heard of a person named Lianshan on the rivers and lakes?"

"Lianshan?" Shi Xianqiao pondered for a long time, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, where did the prince hear this name?" ”

"When I was on the ghost ship in the East China Sea that day, I saw traces engraved with the word Lianshan on a board of the ship's cabin, maybe it was the name of a place, maybe it was the name of a person, I couldn't say, I just thought that my predecessors were well-informed, and maybe I didn't know if I had heard of it." Li Luo didn't say anything about the words in Wanmei Garden and Cangyang Jiahe and the name engraved on the stone, Li Luo always had a feeling of nothingness, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Shi Xianqiao sighed and replied in a harmonious voice: "I have never heard of this name, but it sounds like the name of a mountain. ”

"I have checked the books on the geography of the mountains and rivers of Dagan, and there is no one recorded in the four realms of Dagan with this name.
