Volume 3 The Mountains and Rain and the Wind Fill the Building Chapter 29 Human Face

I only heard the voice and chanted: "I want to ride the wind and recite the piano for life." Dancing in the heights, chic in the world. After that, he asked, "The ancient poems of your Bihai Kingdom are really excellent." Do you know which one of these masterpieces this is? ”

Su Xiaochen pondered these few sentences, they were not right, and the words were strange, and he was thinking that it was a strange work of a poet in Bihai Kingdom, only to hear the maid muttering again: "The slave and maid have little reading, Yang Gongzi don't want to lie to me." I've never heard of a famous writer with such a verse, but I'm afraid that you are making it up again, and the slave will not be fooled again. ”

Zhu Zhitong couldn't help it anymore, and laughed by the window: "Lao Yang, how can we have such messy verses in our Bihai Country!" Don't ruin my reputation for the blue sea. ”

The old Yang replied slowly: "It turned out that Her Royal Highness the Third Princess had arrived, and she was disappointed, so please tell me in the pavilion." The words are respectful, but the attitude is very casual.

Zhu Zhitong smiled as she walked towards the pavilion: "Lao Yang, you are crazy today, you talk to me so much, it sounds awkward to death." ”

Su Xiaochen looked at the words of the two of them going back and forth like this, they were familiar with each other on weekdays, and they were very curious about what kind of person this old Yang was. As soon as he sat down in the pavilion with Zhu Zhitong, a person came out of the room.

This person is of a mediocre stature and has a mediocre appearance. He looked twenty-five or sixteen years old, white and pure like a scholar, wearing a half-new robe, a black melon hat, and his eyes were very bright. He looked at Su Xiaochen and smiled mysteriously, saluted, and said, "Yang Huairen of the Imuran Blade Clan, I have seen Master Su. ”

When Su Xiaochen heard him come up, he reported to his home, and hurriedly stood up and saluted back: "Su Xiaochen of Cangwu Kingdom, I have seen Brother Yang." ”

Zhu Zhitong was a little anxious beside him, and hurriedly said, "Oh, you two are really troublesome." Da Su, Lao Yang is not such a mother-in-law and mother-in-law on weekdays, don't look at him pretending to be serious. Lao Yang, what the hell are you doing today? Plucking the strings and bowing again. ”

Lao Yang said with a smile: "Isn't Master Su an elegant person, I have to see him today, and I have to be vassal." ”

Su Xiaochen smiled secretly, thinking that the four words vassal elegance were probably misinterpreted by him, and it seemed that the Imuran people did not learn the words and phrases of the south very well.

At this time, the maidservant outside the pavilion had already brought tea.

Su Xiaochen saw that it was a few jet-black clay cups with wide mouths and square bottoms. On the table, it looks like a few old tree roots, and the shapes are also very different.

Lao Yang picked up the teapot and poured half a cup for himself first, then half a cup for Zhu Zhitong, and finally poured tea for Su Xiaochen.

Su Xiaochen thought about it, the princess is respectful, Lao Yang is old, even if he is a guest, it is reasonable to pour tea for himself in the end, and he doesn't care at the moment.

Lao Yang looked at him indifferently, and praised him again in his heart, young people are not arrogant or impatient, which is very rare. Zhu Zhitong shouted:

"Da Su, it seems that Lao Yang really likes you, the first cup of this tea is the most rough, the second cup is improving, and the third cup is the best, he actually poured it for you!"

Su Xiaochen was stunned, what kind of tea is this, and there is such a reason.

Lao Yang laughed: "Master Su, don't blame me for pouring tea for you at the end, Xiao Tong said that it is indeed true." This is the earthen tea of our Imuran, called the Raven. This tea is cold, but it can drive away malaria and is very beneficial to the body. When pouring the tea, pour and collect, the tea in the pot reverberates and blends, and the medicinal properties are revealed. The second cup of tea is poured and collected, and although the tea poured out has medicinal effects, it is not as good as the medicinal properties that have reverberated in the pot again. So the third lamp for you is the best. ”

Su Xiaochen was very curious when he heard it, his uncle used to love tea, and he had seen a lot of good tea. What Buddha white eyebrows, four-leaf gourd, and willow silk green are all names that make people's tongues relish. This tea is good, what is it called a crow, a fierce and vicious posture, it really looks like the name of tea that the Imulans would take.

And it's the third one?

"Then is it better to pour the remaining tea in the pot into the fourth pot now?" Su Xiaochen couldn't help asking.

Lao Yang hehe, made a gesture, and the maid next to him left with all the teapots and trays.

"Master Su, this fourth lamp is already three tilts and three harvests, and the medicinal properties are great. Drinking into the viscera, the cold is pressing, it is harmful and useless, so this tea can only be poured three times. In fact, there are many things in the world like this, and it is too much. Too much, the more harmful. When Lao Yang said the last sentence, he looked at Su Xiaochen with a deep meaning in his eyes.

Su Xiaochen was silent after hearing this, picked up the teacup and took a sip. He wasn't reminiscing about Lao Yang's words, but suddenly felt that his smile was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it when he thought about it.

After drinking half of the tea in the cup, Su Xiaochen suddenly stared at Lao Yang and said, "Brother Yang repeats the following words, let me listen to them." Without waiting for Lao Yang to answer, he thought to himself: "The queen mother invited me to the banquet, but I will wait here to meet you, little brother, do you want to come to a trigram?" It is not allowed to ask for money. ”

When Lao Yang heard this, his face showed a little embarrassment. But Zhu Zhitong laughed next to him, "Lao Yang, I said you can't hide it from Da Su, right?" He's very smart. ”

When Su Xiaochen heard this, he sure enough, he was not mistaken. The strange fortune teller who escaped from the thief's den that day and met on the way was very similar to today's voice, but the appearance was completely different. It was obviously the first time for him and Lao Yang to meet, but Lao Yang had a feeling of knowing him very well.

On the trip to the blue sea, although I don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching closely behind my back, Lao Yang is undoubtedly one of them that cannot be ignored.

Is this person friend or foe? What exactly is the purpose?

Lao Yang also smiled awkwardly and said, "I didn't mean to hide it from Mr. Su, but I didn't want to mention it again because I didn't have enough effort to raise my hands that day." ”

What? As easy as lifting a finger? Su Xiaochen looked at Lao Yang as if he was a benevolent man, and he didn't know where to start for a while.

"But I remember that you didn't look like you are today. It seemed to be a little thinner that day, and much older. ”

Zhu Zhitong clapped her hands and smiled: "Haha, you are not the first person to be deceived by Lao Yang's disguise technique, his disguise technique is very powerful." ”

I see...... On that day, you came to talk to me, and you pretended to be a ghost like this, you are really not an honest person. Thinking of this, Su Xiaochen's heart suddenly moved, and when Lao Yang was picking up the teacup and drinking tea, he leaned forward coldly and pinched Lao Yang's left cheek.

Rao is Lao Yang didn't expect him to act like this, his right hand trembled in pain, the teacup smashed on the table, and his left hand covered his face and screamed. Luckily, the teacup was sturdy, and it smashed a small hole in the table.

Zhu Zhitong was also stunned, and exhaled: "Da Su, why are you pinching him?" ”

"This person is false and real, last time he set up a maze array for me at the bottom of the mountain, you said that he deceived me that day, but you don't know that today he also changed his appearance and came out to see me?" Su Xiaochen later felt very strange whenever he thought of the thief's relief that day, and when he saw this person today, he immediately felt that maybe this person was making trouble behind his back, and he was very angry in his heart.

Zhu Zhitong suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Da Su, you misunderstood, Lao Yang looks like this, he has lived in the palace for so many years, and from the first time I saw him, he was this face." How can it be disguised? ”

When Su Xiaochen heard this, he took a closer look at Lao Yang, and saw that his white and pure left face was already red, and it seemed that he had exerted enough strength just now, and he was a little sorry at the moment.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhitong helped to start the round: "Lao Yang, you too, save him that day, why do you still tease him." Well, don't blame him. ”

Lao Yang snorted and covered his face and said, "Yes, yes, it's me who is wrong." I was going to show him the way that day, and I just pretended to be a fortune teller for a moment of fun. Besides, I have no ill intentions. Besides...... How dare I blame him? ”

Su Xiaochen didn't pay attention to the last sentence he muttered, thinking that the path he showed him that day was indeed right, and it was far-fetched to call him a villain. He immediately made a salute and said:

"It's me who was reckless, you lied to me, I pinched you, and we're even. I also hope that Brother Yang can tell me the situation of that day as it is. ”

Lao Yang snorted for a while before he spoke slowly:

"Actually, that day, it was also a coincidence, I happened to go out of the palace to find my uncle."

Zhu Zhitong saw that Su Xiaochen didn't react, and hurriedly added: "It's Master Hao in the Mo Daqiu Merchant Pavilion." ”

"My uncle used to say that if we Imurans want to gain a foothold in this foreign land, the source is important. My uncle knows that those ruffians have some evil deeds in Su Ri, but he is very clear about the affairs in Taiye City, so he has some contacts with their leaders from time to time, you can understand this. Lao Yang looked at Su Xiaochen and nodded, and continued:

"In fact, as soon as your Cangwu mission entered the city, we Imurans looked at it. Although the Cangwu Kingdom and my Imuran Kingdom have never fought on the table, you have made a lot of efforts behind the war of poison and gold, and the Imuran Kingdom has long regarded you as friends and enemies, and they do not dare to slack off on your vigilance. Everywhere you go, we have people tracking the returns. You know that, right? ”

Seeing that he was honest, Su Xiaochen nodded again.

Lao Yang changed his words and said, "But our Blade Clan is a little different from the other two tribes. The Golden Blade King asked Mo Daqiu to open a business hall in the capital of Bihai to do business, originally to make money in harmony. The exchange of visits between the envoys of your two countries has nothing to do with us as businessmen. That day, our eyes saw that you had been kidnapped by the thieves, and you said that you were the nephew of the King of the Golden Blade, Surhaga, and reported it to Mo Daqiu. Mo Daqiu said to my uncle, although you unlucky bastards have nothing to do with our Imulan, it is better to help out. If there is a chance to open the branch of the merchant hall to Cangwu Country in the future, maybe it will be closer and closer, so I will take this matter over. After Mo Daqiu finished speaking, the thief named Zhao Er came to my uncle with a broken arrow engraved with the mark of the Blade Clan, and you know what happened next. ”

Su Xiaochen suddenly realized that it was the case that the Imurans, whom he had never met that day, had lied for him. It seems that the mind of this blade clan is really very different from that of the Imuran blood clan and the eagle clan, and it is a little more sleek. On the surface, it is fierce and vicious, but in fact it can stretch and bend. After suffering the loss of the war of poison gold, he still wanted to sell the prince of Cangwu Kingdom a favor, so that he could open the merchant hall to the capital of Emperor Wanhua in the future. I was able to escape that day, which was really a blessing to the prince.

He suddenly remembered that it was the first time he had seen Mo Daqiu in the court that day, but the other party smiled desperately at him as if he had known him earlier. In this way, do you want to leave a good impression on yourself, and in the future, Emperor Wanhua will meet in the capital, and hope to take care of the business? The Imulans are really elusive.

Su Xiaochen asked again: "Then what did you do later as a fortune teller?" ”

Lao Yang said again, "That's my uncle's good heart, after seeing that Zhao Er left, he said that you are not familiar with life, and you don't know the way to escape from the thief's den, but Qilipo is a desolate place, so let me come over and show you the way." I just teased you for a moment of fun. Think about it, after all, we helped you and led you back to the city, yes or no? Hey, you still came to pinch me......" After speaking, he covered his face and shouted, "Ouch, it hurts." ”

Su Xiaochen looked down and thought about it, although he still felt a little weird, but what Lao Yang said was reasonable and flawless, so he stood up again and bowed solemnly, saying:

"Thank you Brother Yang for your rescue that day."

I didn't notice that I was pinching Lao Yang's left cheek, but now Lao Yang was covering his right cheek and pretending to be screaming there.
