CHAPTER XXIV

CHAPTER XXIV

On the second day, Zhang Feimo rode a horse, walked slowly in a relatively remote woods, and said in his mouth: "The senior brother is gone, the second senior brother is also gone, and now I am the only one left." Speaking of this, she sighed, and then continued: "This time I go back to the Valley of the Gods, I'm afraid my father won't let me come out again." ”

She was talking to herself as she rode her horse and ran forward, when suddenly she heard a cry and said, "Pilot! The horse immediately stopped.

When the horse stopped, she wondered, "How did I hear the cry?" Did I hear me wrong? Then she listened carefully, and this time she heard it clearly, and she added, "It's really a cry, and it's a woman's voice." Then she jumped down from her horse, led it, and walked in the direction from which the sound came, and saw a little girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old not far away; The little girl was sitting under a big tree, her head bowed, and she was crying, and I wonder why she was crying. Looking at her dress, it should be the maid ring of a big family.

Zhang Feimo felt curious, so he walked over and asked, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" How can a person cry here? Was it bullied by anyone? ”

When the girl heard someone talking to her, she looked up and saw a girl standing in front of her, a few years older than herself, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

I was passing by, and when I heard you crying here, I came over and looked." As soon as Zhang Feimo finished speaking, the girl cried again, and at this time, Zhang Feimo said again: "Girl, what's wrong with you?" Was it bullied by someone? Tell your sister and she will help you teach him a lesson. ”

I lost my young lady, I have been looking for her for several days and nights, but I have not found her, and I dare not go home these days." The girl said as she cried.

After hearing this, Zhang Feimo asked, "What does your young lady look like?" Where did you get separated? ”

The girl got up from the ground, then took out a rolled-up portrait from her body, walked to Zhang Feimo, opened the portrait, and said: "I was separated from the young lady on Chang'an Street, this is the portrait of my young lady, I specially found someone to draw it." As he spoke, he stretched out the portrait in front of Zhang Feimo's eyes and let Zhang Feimo see it.

Chang'an Street? I'm also from Chang'an Avenue, so why haven't I seen the person in the painting? Zhang Feimo said and took the portrait in his hand and looked at it, and then said: "Your young lady is quite good-looking, it can't be that the son of a family took a fancy to it and snatched it home, right?" ”

When the girl heard this, she was surprised and said, "What if someone really snatched it home?" ”

"Look!"

"Where to find it?"

Zhang Feimo thought for a while and said, "Go to Chang'an Avenue to find it, didn't you get separated on Chang'an Street!" I think your young lady is still on Chang'an Avenue. ”

"I've searched Chang'an Avenue several times, and if I was there, I would have found it a long time ago."

I said you're stupid! No wonder you lost your young lady," Zhang Feimo said, "If your young lady is snatched home, you will definitely not be able to ask if you ask on the street." ”

"You mean to go to someone's house and look for it?"

That's right."

"But I'm a girl, how can I be good at breaking into people's homes?" The girl said, "Besides, it's impossible for me to let a stranger into the house and look for someone!" ”

Zhang Feimo thought for a while and asked, "Do you have any silver?" ”

Yes." The girl said as she pulled out her purse from her body.

"As long as you have money," Zhang Feimo said and returned the portrait to the girl, then jumped on the horse, stretched out a hand, and said, "Girl, come with me, I will help you find it together." ”

When the girl heard this, she stretched out a hand and put it on Zhang Feimo's hand, then jumped up and sat on the horse's back.

After she got on the horse, Zhang Feimo said: "Drive." The horse immediately ran in the direction of Chang'an Avenue.

At this time, Zhang Feimo asked the girl while riding a horse: "By the way, girl, what is your name?" You can't keep calling you! ”

"My name is Guixin," said the girl, "what about you?" ”

"My name is Zhang Feimo and I am eighteen years old."

"You are a few years older than me, then I will call you Sister Feimo in the future." The girl said.

___________________

In this way, they rode horses and chatted while coming to Chang'an Street.

Chang'an Avenue is still as lively as usual, with sparkling cars and horses, the flow of people is like weaving, the shops on both sides of the street are lined up, and the sun shines on the red bricks and green tiles, and the pavilions and cornices, adding a bit of poetry to Chang'an Street.

After Zhang Feimo came to Chang'an Street with Guixin, he led the horse and walked on the street, they walked and walked, and suddenly, Guixin asked Zhang Feimo: "Sister Feimo, where are we going to find it now?" ”

It's noon, I'm hungry, let's go to the inn for dinner first! I'll look for it when I'm full. Zhang Feimo said as he walked.

"I'm dying, how can I still eat?"

"If you don't eat, how can you have the strength to find it?" Zhang Feimo said, "Besides, finding someone is not a matter of time and a half, you can't skip meals all the time!" ”

"Okay!" Guixin said listlessly as he walked.

"Sister Guixin, your young lady will be fine, don't worry too much," Zhang Feimo said, "I'll take you to the Sayun Inn for dinner!" I was to that inn last time I was there, and the food was good. With that, she walked towards the Sayun Inn with her heart, and after a while she arrived at the door of the Sayun Inn and took off the burden and sword that hung on the horse.

At this time, the groom at the door saw them and hurriedly walked over and took Zhang Feimo's horse away.

After the horses were led, they walked in together.

As soon as he walked in, the shopkeeper came over with a smile to greet him: "This guest officer is so familiar!" ”

"I was here last time, don't you remember?" Zhang Feimo said.

"Remember, remember, of course," said the shopkeeper, "Last time the guest officer came with the two senior brothers. ”

"I'm here to eat this time, and I'm not staying at the restaurant." Zhang Feimo said, walked to the guest hall with his heart, and sat down at a random empty table.

Once seated, she placed her burden on the table, her sword resting on the edge of the table.

There were more people eating this time than last time, and the tables were basically full.

The shopkeeper followed them and walked over, then hurriedly made them a cup of tea and asked, "What do the two guest officers want to eat?" ”

Same as last time." Zhang Feimo said.

"Okay," said the shopkeeper, "the two guest officers will wait a moment, and it will be fine immediately." With that, he left.

After the shopkeeper left, Zhang Feimo said to Guixin: "Sister Guixin, your young lady will be fine, don't worry too much, when you finish eating, my sister will accompany you to look for it door to door." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard one of the young men at the table next to him say to the man sitting opposite the young man: "Young master, I heard that there is a new girl in the 'Fengyue Building', who looks even more beautiful than the Oiran, but I don't know if it's true?" ”

"Ben Gongzi also heard about it," The man who was called the young master was holding a folding fan in his hand, and at this moment, he opened the fan in his hand "with a bang", looking like a handsome son, and at first glance he was the son of a big family, "After eating, accompany Ben Gongzi to the 'Fengyue Building' to see the new beauty."

……

After Zhang Feimo heard their conversation, he then asked Guixin: "Sister Guixin, what is the place of 'Fengyue Tower'?" My sister is not from this place and is not familiar with this place. ”

Gui Xin was about to answer, but at this moment, the shopkeeper came over with a tray and said, "Two guest officers, your meal is here." As he spoke, he brought the dishes to the table one by one, and then put the food in front of them, and said, "The two guest officers use it slowly." With that, he left.

After the shopkeeper left, Zhang Feimo picked up the chopsticks from the chopsticks basket, picked up some dishes and ate them.

Guixin also picked up the chopsticks, put some vegetables in the bowl, and then said while eating: "Sister Feimo, what are you asking 'Fengyue Lou' for?" That place is where men go, and women can't go. ”

"Where do men go?" Zhang Feimo grew up in the Valley of the Immortals since he was a child, and he has never seen the world, "What is it? ”

That's it...... It's the place where the wind and the snow are shining," Speaking of this, Gui Xin's face turned red, and she didn't know how to express it? Men go there to find girls, and the girls there accompany men to eat, drink and have fun.

Oh! I understand. Zhang Feimo suddenly realized.

"Sister Feimo, you're not a man, why are you asking this?" Guixin asked as he ate.

"Just now I heard a few people next to me say, 'Fengyue Tower' There is a new girl, I suspect it is your young lady."

When I heard this, I was surprised: "Impossible, how could my young lady go to that kind of place?" ”

"I didn't say that your young lady went voluntarily," Zhang Feimo said, "I think I should have been deceived or kidnapped?" ”

"What then?" I was so anxious that I was about to cry.

Zhang Feimo thought for a while and said, "I have a way." ”

"What's the solution?"

"Eat first, and you'll find out later." Zhang Feimo said and began to eat.

Guixin also began to eat.

_______________

Fengyue Tower is the largest and most famous kiln on Chang'an Street, and the people who come here to eat, drink and have fun are those who have money and status.

The poor people can't even step into the threshold to eat, drink and have fun.

Looking at Fengyue Tower from the outside, the golden glazed tiles shine dazzlingly under the sunlight.

At the top of the gate hangs a black golden silk nanmu plaque, on which are written the three big characters of "Fengyue Building".

Looking further inside, the inside is resplendent with gold, upstairs and downstairs, giving people a feeling of grandeur and palace.

Turning around the lobby is a series of corridors that lead to different courtyards and rooms, all of which are different in style, some of which are brightly lit and give people a sense of meandering passage.

The furnishings of each room are different, so I won't introduce them one by one.

This Fengyue Building is quite high-end, and you can give guests a different feeling before you enter the door, after all, there are a lot of people who come here, and they are all here for beautiful girls......

In one of the rooms upstairs, there were two good-looking girls, standing to the left and right of the other girl, and they were holding the girl's arms.

The girl who was caught by her arms, her shoulders were slashed, her waist was like a plain, her eyebrows were like green feathers, her muscles were like snow, she looked like a country and a city, she was peerless, and the whole person looked beautiful and picturesque, beautiful and beautiful like a fairy.

She was wearing a plain brocade dress, her black hair was pulled up, and a hairpin was inserted diagonally, and the whole person exuded a faint aura.

His name is: Feng Xue'er. She is the eldest daughter of General Fengsheng.

At this moment, there is a fatter aunt standing in front of her, and this aunt is the "mother" of Fengyuelou.

She holds a bowl of tea in her left hand; Under "house arrest" in the tea, his right hand gently touched Feng Xue'er's face, and said seriously: "What's wrong with being a girl from Fengyuelou like me, eating fragrant and drinking spicy?" Why is your girl's temper so stubborn? I've already given you a few days to think about it, and there will be a dignitary who wants to buy you, and you will promise if you agree, and you will have to promise if you don't agree. ”

"How dare you," Feng Xue'er said angrily, "Do you know who my father is? He is a general next to the emperor, if he knows that you tricked me here, even if he doesn't kill you, he will tear down your kiln. ”

"General?" Mom laughed a few times: "Haha...... Then he said to the two girls who were holding Feng Xue'er, "She said that she is the daughter of the general, do you believe her?" ”

The two girls laughed a few times, and then one of them sneered, "I also said I was the queen!" As soon as he finished speaking, the other said: "'Mom' don't talk nonsense with her, pour the medicine down." ”

After hearing this, "Mom" pinched Feng Xue'er's mouth with her right hand, poured the tea on her left hand into Feng Xue'er's mouth, and no matter how Feng Xue'er struggled, it didn't work.

After Feng Xue'er drank the medicine, after a while, her whole body was weak, although her eyes were open, she had no strength at all, and she couldn't even lift her arms, at this moment, she was at the mercy of others.

The two of you help her to the bed and let her lie down while the guests come over. "Mother" instructed the two girls.

The two girls said together, "Yes." Then he helped Feng Xue'er to the bed and lay down.

After Feng Xue'er lay down, they left the room with "Mom".

As soon as they came down the stairs, they saw two "sons" walk in at the door.

These two "sons" one holds a long sword and the other holds a folding fan.

The one holding the long sword in her hand is Zhang Feimo, she is wearing men's clothes and combing a man's hairstyle, at this moment, she puffs up her chest, she is really a little manly.

The one holding the folding fan in her hand is the center, she is wearing men's clothes that are different from Zhang Feimo's style, and she also combs men's hairstyle, at this moment, she uses the open folding fan in her hand to cover most of her face, and she is so frightened that she cringes, at this moment, her face is flushed, and then she stretched her head to Zhang Feimo's ear and whispered: "Sister Feimo, there are all men here, let's go!" ”

With me here, what are you afraid of? You don't want to look for your young lady anymore? Zhang Feimo whispered, "Also, call me young master." ”

"Young master, of course I want to find my young lady."

Then you're going to cooperate with me." As soon as Zhang Feimo finished speaking, at this moment, "Mom" walked up to them, shook Zhang Feimo lightly with the handkerchief in her hand, and said with a smile: "Huh! Let's come for the first time! How come you've never seen it? ”

Zhang Feimo cleared his throat and said, "I heard that you have a new girl here, and my son wants it." ”

This ...... "Mom" said in a hurry, "Two sons, I'm really embarrassed! This new girl has already been bought, or the two of them will be replaced by someone else. After speaking, she shouted: "Pear blossom, bring water, come and accompany the two sons." ”

Hearing this, Pear Blossom and Daishui hurriedly trotted over, one stood next to Zhang Feimo, and the other stood beside Guixin, shouting delicately: "Childe." And his hands touched them.

"Don't touch me." Zhang Feimo and Guixin said in unison.

They were so frightened that they quickly withdrew their hands.

At this time, "Mother" said: "Two sons, this pear blossom and the appearance with water are no worse than the newcomer." ”

My son said, I want the new girl, are you afraid that I won't bring any money? Or are you afraid that I won't have enough money? After Zhang Feimo finished speaking, he shouted: "Return to the heart." ”

Guixin took out the money bag from his body and handed it to "Mom".

"Mom" took the money bag, opened it, and her eyes widened in surprise, and then stammered: "This ...... It's all gold, and it's all gold leaves. After saying that, she took one and stuffed it into her mouth, bit it to make sure it was true, and then smiled: "Aren't the two sons just wanting that new girl!" It's easy to say, it's easy to say. After speaking, he shouted: "Pear Blossom, take the two sons." ”

Rika said, "Yes." Then he said to Zhang Feimo and the others: "Two sons, please go upstairs with me." With that, he went upstairs.

After Zhang Feimo and Guixin followed Pear Blossom upstairs, they walked to the door of a certain room, stopped, and then Pear Blossom said to them: "The new girl, it's inside, she has a stubborn temper and is not easy to tame, the two sons go in!" I'm not going in. With that, he left.

After Rika left, Gui Xin couldn't wait, pushed the door open all of a sudden, and then hurriedly walked in.

Zhang Feimo also hurriedly walked in.

___________________

Inside the house. Feng Xue'er was lying on the bed, unable to move, and suddenly, she heard footsteps, getting closer and closer to her, and she scolded: "If you dare to touch me, I will let my father kill your whole family." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice: "Miss." Then she saw a familiar face appear in front of her, and she hurriedly shouted: "Return? Then he began to cry, and while crying, he blamed, "Dead girl, where have you gone?" I was almost bullied for looking for you. ”

At this time, Guixin suddenly pounced on Miss, crying and saying, "Miss, I have been looking for you for a few days and nights. ”

Alright, now is not the time to cry, let's go!" Zhang Feimo said to them.

At this time, Feng Xue'er noticed Zhang Feimo, and then asked, "Who is this son?" ”

Before Zhang Feimo could answer, Guixin hurriedly got up and replied: "Miss, she is not a son, her name is Zhang Feimo, I just met her, and she brought me here to find you." ”

After hearing this, Feng Xue'er thanked Zhang Feimo and said, "Thank you Feimo girl for saving me." ”

"You're welcome," Zhang Feimo said, "Guixin is my friend, you are Guixin's young lady, and of course you're also my friend, oh yes, why can't you move?" Is it under house arrest? ”

Yes." Feng Xue'er said.

At this time, Zhang Feimo said to Guixin: "Guixin, carry your young lady on your back, and let's go down together to ask "mother" for the antidote." After saying that, he walked to the door.

Returning to the heart with Feng Xue'er on his back, he followed behind and walked down.

After they went downstairs, "Mom" saw them, and "Mom" hurriedly walked over and said to them: "Two sons, you can play as much as you want here, but our girls here can't take them away!"

Who's your girl here? Hand over the antidote," Gui Xin said angrily, "Do you know who my young lady is? When we go to the palace and sue the emperor, we will not only demolish your Fengyue Tower, but also punish your nine clans. ”

After hearing this, Mom laughed a few times: "Haha...... Then sarcastically said: " The Imperial Palace? Punish the Nine Clans? Who is your young lady? Could it be a princess? ”

You ...... Gui Xin was so angry that he couldn't even speak, and at this moment, Zhang Feimo hurriedly pulled out half of the sword in his hand, and said fiercely at the neck of "Mom": "I don't have the patience to listen to your nonsense, do you pay the antidote or not?"

"Childe is angry, Childe is angry, if you have something to say, if you have something to say, I'll hand it over," "Mom" trembled with fright, and hurriedly took out the antidote from her body and handed it to Zhang Feimo.

At this time, Zhang Feimo stuffed the sword into the scabbard, then caught the antidote, first opened the lid of the medicine bottle, then poured the medicine in his hand, and put it in Feng Xue'er's mouth, letting Feng Xue'er eat it.

After Feng Xue'er ate the antidote, she said to Guixin: "Guixin, let me go!" I can go now. ”

After listening to this, he put the young lady down.

At this time, Zhang Feimo said: "Let's go." Then they walked out of the Fengyue Tower together.

After walking out of Fengyue Tower, Zhang Feimo asked Guixin as he walked: "Guixin, you mentioned the palace just now, who are you?" ”

"My young lady is the eldest daughter of a general." Returning to the heart answered as he walked.

"General?" When Zhang Feimo heard this, he was taken aback, and then thought: The second senior brother was arrested by the general's subordinates, if I go back with them, I won't be able to see the second senior brother. She thought about it, and fell into a trance.

At this time, Feng Xue'er noticed Zhang Feimo's surprised expression, and then asked, "What's wrong?" Do you know my father? ”

Zhang Feimo shook his head and said, "I'm a countryman, how can I know your father?" It's just that my second senior brother was arrested by your father's subordinates yesterday. ”

"What is my father doing arresting your second senior brother?" Feng Xue'er asked suspiciously.

Before Zhang Feimo could answer, Guixin hurriedly replied: "Miss, Your Majesty recently sent a general to arrest men everywhere to join the army, what are you saying to prevent Nan Shangguo from attacking our country?" ”

I see. After Feng Xue'er finished speaking, she said to Zhang Feimo: "You are my savior, I will take you back with me, and beg my father to release your second senior brother." ”

Really?" Zhang Feimo said happily: "Thank you then." ”

"You saved me, and I should thank you."

"Oh yes," Zhang Feimo asked, "I don't know your name yet?" How old is it? ”

"My name is Feng Xue'er and I'm eighteen years old."

"I'm eighteen years old, and I've already told you my name."

"From now on, the three of us will be good sisters," Feng Xue'er said as she walked, "Let's go, let's go buy horses together and go back to the General's Mansion." ”

"Miss, just now in Fengyue Tower, in order to save you, the money has been spent, and now I have no money on me." Returning to the heart said.

So what to do? It's still some way from the General's Palace, so you can't walk back! Feng Xue'er had just finished speaking, at this time, Zhang Feimo said: "I have a horse, in the Sayun Inn, let's go to the Sayun Inn together!" Then the three of them walked together to the Sayun Inn, and soon arrived at the door of the inn.

When the groom at the door saw them, he hurriedly asked, "The girl is here to lead the horse, right?" ”

Yes." Zhang Feimo said.

"Wait a minute." After the groom finished speaking, he went to the stable, led the horse out, and handed it to Zhang Feimo.

After Zhang Feimo caught the horse rope, he jumped on the horse's back, stretched out a hand, and said, "Xue'er, I'll pull you on the horse!" ”

Feng Xue'er put her hand on Zhang Feimo's hand, jumped up, and sat on the horse's back, and then she also stretched out a hand and shouted: "Return to the heart." ”

Guixin put his hand on Feng Xue'er's hand, and then jumped on the horse's back at once.

After they got on the horse, Zhang Feimo said, "Sit tight." Then a voice: "Drive." The horse rushed forward and went to the general's mansion.

After they had gone, the groom said to himself in the direction of the wind in which they were walking: "In the blink of an eye, there is another girl, but these girls are all very good-looking." ”
