Chapter 599: Deserted Mansion and Wild Courtyard
Shen Kang was full of surprise, he originally knew that this Shenhezhuang did not exist, and this trip to the wind was just his fantasy and expectation for the martial arts world.
He came here to look at it with disappointment, and now someone said, "Found?"
Huang Sanyuan ran to the front and said with a smile: "Son, I heard that on the bank of the barren water next to it, there is an ownerless deserted courtyard left over from the Song Dynasty. The villain thought that since the son said that his old friend had passed away, he ......"
He scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and said, "The villain doesn't know if this person is what the prince is looking for, do you want to go and see?" ”
Shen Kang paused slightly, raised his lips and smiled: "You have a heart, how can I brush it off?" As he spoke, he turned his eyes to look at Liu Shu and Wei Wudefeat, raised his eyes a little, and said, "Go and take a look." ”
Before coming to the broken courtyard, there is a lotus pool in front of the door, the steps in front of the door are paved with irregular bluestone slabs, the bluestone slabs are thick gray because no one has cleaned them for a long time, and because the snow is half frozen and half thawed, and it looks a little muddy, and in the crevices of the stones that are faintly exposed, there are patches of slippery moss that are thriving.
The plaque on the gate had long been missing, Wei Wuyi walked in front, pushed open the half-hidden dilapidated gate, and saw that on the ground in the gate, there was a plaque lying on the ground that was unrecognizable.
Wei Wuyi jumped into the door briskly, bent down to brush the thick ash on the plaque, Liu Shu lowered his eyes, and said, "Son, this family's surname is Han." ”
Shen Kang nodded and said, "Ask if there is anyone in the house." ”
In fact, from the appearance of this family, you can roughly know that this house has long been deserted, and it is polite to ask.
Liu Shu raised his voice and asked, "Is there anyone?" ”
I waited for a while, but no one responded.
Huang Sanyuan said with a smile: "Son, this house has been deserted for a long time. ”
Shen Kang nodded, and then walked inside.
After passing through the front yard, you can see the corridor running through the left and right, Shen Kang and the others did not go along the corridor, but entered the front hall, which was spacious and bright, although it was dilapidated, but you could still feel what kind of big family lived in this heroic manor many years ago.
Shen Kang raised his eyes and glanced at it, folded his hands, bowed three times towards the front hall, and then said: "In the end, it's someone's house, let's just go to the house, and we can't go to the house." ”
Huang Sanyuan smiled and said, "Childe, there's a sound of water over there, do you want to take a look?" ”
Shen Kang nodded, walked out of the door, walked along the corridor, and after passing the narrow porch, the sound of water in his ears became clearer. Looking to both sides, it is not difficult to see that the water flows along the rockery wall on the right, passes under the promenade, and finally joins the meandering stream on the left.
Huang Sanyuan looked at the direction of the water flow, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The direction of this water flow seems to be wrong......
Liu Shu looked at it, couldn't help frowning, and said, "Childe, the water over there is swirling, and it is still flowing back." ”
Shen Kang hesitated and said, "Could it be that there is a dark river under the stream?" His eyes rolled slightly, and he said, "Look ahead." Saying that, Shen Kang had already cheered up and was interested.
The further you go, the wider the corridor becomes, and the more water flows.
The more Shen Kang looked at these streams, the more he felt interested, and under the chain of winding water, there must be a hidden mechanism.
When the ancients lived in their homes, they generally set up some defenses to protect the safety of their families. Now, in Shen Kang's opinion, this house is like a large bunker, and it is also a bunker with beautiful scenery.
Passing through the promenade, you can see the beautiful shape of the lake pavilion on the left, if you don't go to the left, you will directly step on the stone road, where there are quiet and far-reaching mountains and verdant.
The courtyard was deep, but Shen Kang didn't go in anymore, he raised his lips and smiled, and asked, "Huang Sanyuan, you just inquired, when did this deserted courtyard become uninhabited?" ”
Huang Sanyuan arched his hand and replied: "I heard that it is an old courtyard handed down from the Song Dynasty, but it is unknown when it will be uninhabited." ”
Shen Kang smiled and said, "Go back to the city." ”
Sitting in the carriage, Shen Kang was in such good spirits that he unexpectedly overflowed from his lips a small tune out of tune. Liu Shu was deeply affected by it, and he couldn't stop suppressing his expression and not letting himself smile.
Shen Kang said: "After returning to the inn in a while, you will go to the official mansion with Huang Sanyuan to ask if there is still an owner of this house, and if you can buy it." ”
Liu Shu was surprised and asked, "Why did Gongzi buy property here?" ”
Shen Kang smiled: "No, I just like this small courtyard." ”
Liu Shu smiled: "Childe, this yard is not small." ”
Shen Kang took a deep breath and said, "Well, it looks like it's not small, if you take care of it in the future, you can do it as a separate hospital." ”
In the early years, Shen Kang told his family that no matter what time it is, Shen Kang told his family that no matter what time it is, he must leave a few back roads for himself. Even if you advance, you can attack, and you can retreat or defend. Runing Mansion is his root, but he also needs branches, he needs leaves, doesn't he?
The courtyard of the Han family, adjacent to the shore of Taihu Lake, is a piece of dusty jade in Shen Kang's opinion, which he can't put down.
The winding water corridors in the courtyard, the verdant mountains, are the representatives of the ancient gardens. He didn't go inside, because he felt that the water flow was a little strange, and he was afraid that it would trigger some hidden mechanism and fall into danger for no reason.
If you want to explore, why not wait until you buy a yard in the coming day and find a craftsman to repair it.
Back at the inn, Shen Kang went to bathe and change clothes, and Liu Shu, under the leadership of Huang Sanyuan, went to the government to inquire about the house.
"Shen San! I can't find you early in the morning, have you left me and Brother Wang to play somewhere! Jiang Liu kicked the door and entered, and asked menacingly.
Shen Kang just took off his coat and turned his eyes to look at him, as Jiang Liu kicked the door, a cold snap rushed into the door, and Shen Kang shivered twice.
Jiang Liu pouted, closed the door, and said, "Where have you been?" ”
Shen Kang said with a smile: "I took a sip of tea and went to the outside of the city." As he spoke, he undressed.
Jiang Liu pursed his lips and asked, "What is there to see outside the city?" After a pause, he approached and said, "I sent someone to send a message to Brother Bai, I don't know when I will be able to come back." ”
Shen Kang said with a smile: "Everyone has arrived in Suzhou Mansion, what are you anxious about?" But I'll be back in three or five days, won't I? Shen Kang folded the clothes he had taken off and put them aside, and asked, "What about the eldest brother?" ”
Jiang Liushu said: "I just went out, saying that I don't have to wait for him to eat unconscious, I will hang out here by myself, and wait for you to come back." ”
Shen Kang grinned and said, "Brother Jiang, I'm going to buy a courtyard, and when the follow-up is done, I'll take you to have a look." ”
Jiang Liushu smiled and asked, "You went out of the city to see the house?" ”
Shen Kang smiled: "How can it, I want to find a good place, I don't want to find that place, but I accidentally ran into an interesting deserted courtyard, so I thought about buying it." ”
Jiang Liuxuan raised his head and said, "You go to bathe, I'll sit here and wait for you." ”
Shen Kang let out an "oh" and went behind the screen.
