Mid-Autumn Festival, Xianyang City does not curfew for three days and nights, although the palace closes the palace gate as usual for safety, but Xianyang City does not close the city gate, so the four gates are still crowded, especially the east gate is even more lively, many people are still immersed in the atmosphere of the festival, drag the family with the mouth to call friends and friends with lanterns wandering on both sides of the Wei River, Keju Square is brightly lit and the voices are boiling, there is faintly the sound of singing and dancing orchestra, that is many Hu people and Quyuan organized performances in Keju Square, attracting tens of thousands of people to watch and cheer.

It is rare to have a few times a year without curfew, and now in addition to the lively Keju Square, the ten-mile-long riverside garden on both sides of the Wei River has also become the favorite place for people near Xianyang to play and entertain.

The willow tops on the moon, people about dusk, mid-autumn night, this unitary time is the most beautiful leisure time of the day, countless enthusiastic and bold men and women have long been unable to hold back the passion in their hearts, make an appointment with their favorite people, in this flower before the moon hugging Qingqing I and me, love to the strong place can not help but take off the pants of the wild to express the cooperation of this beautiful scenery.

But the so-called spending money before the moon is not as good as spending money, people with status, status and wealth are naturally more willing to go to Quyuan for entertainment, spend some money to find a few delicate and skilled little ladies to serve, drink wine, listen to small songs, touch and pinch and talk with three or five friends is the real enjoyment, than the wild is countless times more comfortable.

Confucius said: Food, sex, and sex!

Now Daqin has begun to enter the stage of food and clothing for the whole people, and after eating and drinking, they will naturally think about it, the topic of sex is a topic that human beings in any era cannot bypass, especially in this era of so-called hundreds of schools of thought, men and women are still in a very casual and chaotic era, so the biggest result of the reform in recent years is that the Quyuan Garden in Xianyang City has sprung up countless times like mushrooms after a rain, and the signboards of the Quyuan can be seen in the streets and alleys. The streets are filled endlessly.

But in the south of the city, where the princes and princes are most concentrated, there is a street that is unusually quiet, although there are some miscellaneous shops on both sides of the street, but the doors are closed without any lights, and not a single pedestrian on the street hundreds of meters long can be seen, and occasionally only a few dog barks can be heard from the darkness.

In the most central position of this road, there is a big mansion, the bluestone high wall and eaves tiles are still neat, but you can see that there are countless dead weeds on the bricks and tiles of the wall, the door gate is closed, the door post is a giant wood that one person can't hold, the plaque on the lintel has been skewed, and the two ancient seals of Zhao Mansion can be faintly seen.

This is the mansion of Zhao Gao, who was ordered by the CRRC government, but after Zhao Gao was dismissed and exiled, this mansion was taken back by the Shaofu, but it has not been auctioned, nor has it been rewarded to other officials, and it has been vacant for almost five years.

It stands to reason that this should be a prosperous place, when Zhao Gao was there, this was still a more lively place in Xianyang, several families living on the street were big dogs, all of them were people with heads and faces in Xianyang, but somehow began to say that this place was haunted, and the situation became more and more intense, the legend of the haunted thing has a nose and eyes, and even someone heard the ghost crying wolf howl in the middle of the night and was scared to death, the lieutenant's mansion came to investigate several times without a problem, and several residents invited some fairy Taoist priests to subdue demons and eliminate demons without success, Things became more and more terrifying later, and several big dog families on the street also sold or vacated the houses here, anyway, this place was relatively unlucky, and those who could move away were moved away, so near the south gate of Xianyang City, where every inch of land was valuable, there was such a ghost street out of thin air.

In the darkness, accompanied by the sound of tapping and tapping, a two-bridled carriage slowly drove down the street, with two lanterns hanging from the front, emitting a faint glow in the cool moonlight.

"Yu~"

The carriage walked to the gate of Zhao's mansion, and the coachman stopped reined.

No one came down from the carriage, the windows and doors were not opened, and after a long time, the windows rang softly a few times, and a cold voice came out, "Go to the side door!" ”

"Yes, drive~" The coachman agreed, shook the reins lightly, and the carriage started again and walked along the street for dozens of feet before turning into a darker and quieter alley.

And not long after the carriage left, a ragged and unkempt hair boy appeared at the corner of the street with a wooden stick, and after the carriage turned into the alley, he quickly chased after it, and after observing the alley for a few minutes, he slowly retreated and turned around to leave, but when he turned around, he suddenly found a person standing behind him, tall and thin, also ragged and unkempt hair, drooping down messy hair covering almost the entire face, and holding a broken pottery bowl in his hand, at first glance he was a fellow of the young man.

"Shhhh The boy nervously stepped back as he lowered his grip on the stick.

"What are you doing here?" The tall lanky beggar asked in a low voice in a hoarse voice.

"This is not your home, you can come and go as you want, what do you have to do with it, get out of the way!" The boy walked past the beggar with disdain.

"You sneakily follow this carriage, thinking that so-and-so doesn't know, if you don't make it clear, so-and-so will send you to see the official!" The tall lanky beggar grabbed the boy's arm and whispered a threat.

The beggar's hand was extremely strong, the young man struggled a few times and did not break free, and in his heart he was shocked, he took out a snow-bright dagger from his waist and put it on the beggar's heart: "Don't be nosy, otherwise today will be your death?" ”

"You're not a beggar?" The tall and lanky beggar couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but his voice was obviously very surprised.

"Hmph, you don't look like a beggar, how can you sneakily hide here, you can't be trying to do wrong!" The boy snorted coldly.

"No matter who you are, don't get close to here in the future, or I'll be rude to you!" As he spoke, the tall and thin beggar suddenly took a step back, and with a flip of his hand, a jet-black dagger lay across the boy's neck.

The young man only felt an extremely fishy aura emanating from the dagger, and he couldn't help but his face changed and he retreated, "Your blade is poisonous?" ”

"It's good to know, so-and-so's short blade is smeared with poison that seals the throat with blood, so-and-so has something very important here, don't be nosy, get out of here quickly!"

"As you wish, farewell!" The boy put away his dagger, stared at the tall and thin beggar, and then turned to leave.

The tall and thin beggar watched the boy disappear into the street, and then slowly retreated into the shadow of the courtyard wall and disappeared, slowly approaching the alley in the darkness, approaching the carriage parked at the side gate of the Zhao Mansion.

The departing boy did not go far away, stopped around the corner, drew a mark with his dagger on the wall tiles in the corner, and then turned and hid in the shadows.

"Tap, tap, tap, ......" There was a slight sound of footsteps coming from the street.

Chen Yong, wearing a hat, appeared under the lantern in front of the door of a foot house, glanced at the corner of the nearby wall, and then turned around and headed towards the street in front of the Zhao Mansion.

"Commander, this way!" He hadn't gone far when a young beggar beckoned to him in a dark corner.

"Ma Dan, is there anything suspicious about the carriage? Did you find Zhao Gao? Chen Yong asked in a low voice.

"No, but the carriage stopped at the side gate of the Zhao Mansion......"

"Zhao Mansion? Which Zhao Mansion? ”

"An abandoned mansion...... Ah, I know, Zhao Mansion is the ghost mansion abandoned by Zhao Gao......" Ma Dan couldn't help but come back to his senses and exclaimed.

Chen Yong was stunned for a moment, and his face changed dramatically, "Go quickly, maybe the person in the carriage is Zhao Gao!" ”

The two of them returned to the gate of Zhao's mansion again along the gloomy street one after the other.

"Where did the carriage go?" In the darkness, Chen Yong asked in a low voice.

"At the side door of the alley next to me, it's been less than half a quarter since I left!"

"Go and see ......" Chen Yong was about to leave, but was grabbed by Ma Dan's arm and whispered: "Don't go, just now I met a strange person, who was also disguised as a beggar and hid nearby, that man has a lot of strength and the blade is quenched with poison, and he rushed to be discovered, if it fights, it will definitely alarm the people in the carriage, and if it attracts the patrolling forbidden army, it will inevitably ruin the big thing of the Hou Ye." ”

Although Chen Yong is the leader of this group of teenagers, it is also the first time to carry out this kind of secret mission, and he is also a little apprehensive in his heart in an instant, and he hesitated for a long time and gritted his teeth and said: "No matter what, we have to find out who is in the carriage, if it is really Zhao Gao, he must have come here at night to go home to get something, I will go over the courtyard wall to check, you go back and gather people to help, if it is really Zhao Gao, you must take his dog life tonight!" ”

"Okay, be careful, that weirdo is very powerful, you must wait until we come back!" Ma Dan nodded and turned to leave, Chen Yong took out a black cloth to cover his face, then pulled out a rope from his waist, clicked open a hook and threw it on the wall, and then grabbed the rope and rubbed it a few times and climbed onto the courtyard wall, jumping into the courtyard like a raccoon cat.

And not long after Chen Yong jumped in, a tall and thin beggar slowly came out of the dark alley, looked around, then jumped up and hooked the eaves of the hospital wall with both hands, and turned over with a slight low cry, and soon jumped into the courtyard.

Zhao Gao's mansion has not lived in the past few years, although the courtyard wall is still very intact from the outside, but in fact, the inside has long been full of thorns and weeds, the huge courtyard is full of trees, almost all the doors and windows of the rooms have been damaged, the gorgeous pavilions and corridors of the past have also begun to decay and collapse, and the night birds and bats can still be heard flying between the trees and the houses, which is completely like a deserted ghost house, which looks extremely terrifying in the cool moonlight.

The courtyard was very quiet, but occasionally something could be heard crashing to the ground, and through the layers of portals, it seemed that a faint flicker of fire could be seen in the backyard.

Chen Yong's nervous cheeks were a little distorted, but he still gritted his teeth and pulled out a dagger from his waist and slowly touched it to the backyard, and not far from him, there was also a thin black shadow bending down and following him, and the two of them went in the direction of the firelight and sound one after the other.
