33 The cat is missing
The shopkeeper of the restaurant sent Jiang Mulan to the door of the room and retreated, only saying, "Go in." By the way, the door was pushed open, and the smell of agarwood came out, Jiang Mulan was only promoted by Jiao Triangle to be a flower dan after the cat was snatched away by the powerful, and she has been living a life of running and walking, and she has indeed never lived a rich life.
However, she still smells the good or bad incense. It is fragrant into the nose, the fragrance is rich in layers, with a sweet and fragrant taste, a sweet aftertaste, the smeller is refreshing and intriguing.
From the moment Mulan smelled the smell of agarwood, she understood that the person inside was not looking for her Jiao Triangle as the shopkeeper said, and he couldn't afford it and wouldn't use it.
In Jiao Triangle's words, this is hypocrisy, he looks down on people who use incense like this, and people who use incense like this also look down on him.
It's not the first time Mulan has encountered such a situation, the most recent one was on Zhen Youqian's 60th birthday in Xingyuan Village, the old man said that he wanted to ask her to be his wife, but Mulan refused.
Today, the person who can make the shopkeeper come to the door and keep silent about the identity of the visitor, Mulan doesn't need to think for a moment to come up with an answer.
The person inside is the Prime Minister, who has been spreading the heat lately.
Bowing her head slightly, Mulan moved the lotus step lightly, the skirt brought out beautiful folds, and through a screen, the smell of agarwood became stronger.
Out of the corner of her eye, Mulan could see two men sitting on a mahogany bench, one playing with a fan in his hand, sometimes open and sometimes closed, and the other holding a cup of hot tea, letting the heat smooth out the wrinkles on his eyebrows, and raising his head to drink, making a cheerful sound of "ha".
Among them, the man with some white hair and beard put down the teacup and beckoned Mulan over: "Mulan girl, come and drink tea together." ”
Although the old man has a gentle tone, he is in a high position all the year round, and he can't help but have the momentum of saying one thing when he speaks.
Mulan blessed her body, and when she walked to the table, she found that there was only a mahogany stool left, and it was very close to the old man, Mulan pursed her lips, and at the moment when she was about to sit down, she silently pulled the stool to the other side, leaving a safe distance.
After Mulan sat down, the old man began to speak: "How long has Miss Mulan been here?" ”
Mulan told the truth: "It's only two or three days." ”
"I once heard the play of your Jiao family opera troupe in Chang'an, and I remember that Hua Dan was a man at that time, do you remember?"
Mulan flashed guard in her eyes, and the cat escaped from the hands of that Qiu Lang, the front foot arrived in Yongwu Town, and the prime minister on the back foot also came, and the cat was still probing between the lines, there must be something strange.
When he looked up, his face was like a flower, harmless to people and animals: "I heard that he is living a good life in Chang'an, and I haven't seen him since I left Chang'an." '
"Oh?" Prime Minister Ping smiled lightly, picked up the teacup in his hand, turned the teacup around, and said: "The "Peony Pavilion" sung by Miss Mulan is a must, but I don't know what the girl thinks of Du Liniang in the play?" ”
Du Liniang was originally the daughter of the official family, only because she met and fell in love with the poor scholar Liu Mengmei in a dream, but because of the feudal etiquette at home, she was imprisoned by the feudal etiquette at home, and finally died of injuries, and was buried under the plum tree in the backyard of the family after death, and built a "plum blossom nunnery", the scholar occasionally felt the wind and cold on the way to Beijing to take the exam, and lived in this plum blossom nunnery, and met with Du Liniang's ghost in the nunnery, the two loved each other very much, but also with the help of the old nun, Du Liniang was reborn, the two cultivated the positive fruit, and later were blocked by Du Liniang's father, after all, they broke through one by one, Create a unique story.
Mulan envied Du Liniang's bravery in breaking through the etiquette for love, of course, she was supportive, and replied without thinking much about it: "The pursuit of happiness for love, and the hardships that eventually become a family are worthy of admiration." ”
"Will Miss Mulan give up everything in pursuit of love? is like Du Liniang in "The Peony Pavilion". ”
Mulan hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes." ”
The Prime Minister smiled, put down the teacup, and the younger man put away the fan and got up to leave.
Seeing this, Mulan also wanted to go out with the man, stood up, and said: "It's late at night, if you want to discuss this "Peony Pavilion" with me, Lord Prime Minister, Mulan should be accompanied, but Mulan came out this time and didn't tell the class master, he is afraid that he is looking for me now, if the adult is fine, Mulan will retire first." ”
The prime minister didn't stop her, and only waited for the young man to leave before he spoke: "You tell me the truth, have you ever seen Jiao Mao'er?" ”
Prime Minister Ping's eyes were sharp, and he said again with a solemn face: "Not everyone can break through the shackles of etiquette and religion like Li Niang, and pursue happiness, most people live their lives under various rules, if Du Liniang in the play meets a scholar who is negative, if her father did not bury her under the plum tree, if the emperor is unwilling to help, then Li Niang is just a wisp of ghost under the plum tree, how to say a peerless story." Don't sing yourself into the play. ”
"The old man said that, you need to experience the rest for yourself, go back."
Jiang Mulan's eyes sparkled slightly, lowered her eyes, and quietly retreated.
Prime Minister Ping's words are strange, as if he is hinting at something, does he also know the cat, and even more so that the cat is currently in the troupe?
Don't sing yourself into the play.
What does this mean?
All kinds of noisy sounds came from the bottom of the stairs, and Mulan saw that Jiao Triangle was holding a scythe for singing, and was breaking free from the shackles of Xiao Er, and was about to rush upstairs, and scolded in her mouth: "My Jiao family, you guys didn't discuss anything with me, so you pulled Mulan up, my old bone is going to fight with the prime minister today!" ”
There was a petite figure a little behind, trying to show her round head: "Cat, your sister Chan is here!" ”
I saw a green light in her hand, and a bright little boy jumped out of thin air, and everyone was stunned by this change and stopped what they were doing.
Xiao Er has seen everything in this restaurant, a cow, a ghost, a snake and a god, and he can be regarded as well-informed, he has seen a Taoist priest who can conjure things out of thin air, and he has also seen a master who can subdue a monster with a wave of his hand, but he has rarely seen such a person who can conjure a doll with his own hands.
It's magical.
Cha Cha Mu hadn't seen Chanchan for a long time, and there was moisture in his eyes, and he pulled the corners of Chanchan's clothes aggrievedly, and said: "Master, you haven't taken me out for a long time." ”
Chanchan touched Cha Cha Mu's soft and lush little black hair, and said comfortingly: "Xiao Cha, go with me to save people first!" ”
Chachamu is the small cannonball that is accurate where it is pointed, Chanchan asked him to go east, he will never go west, and he will never go north if he goes south.
At that moment, he showed his little minions, a century-old tea tree branch, and sharpened his knife Huo Huo ran ahead.
"Class master." The tender female voice seemed to be like a spring breeze, breaking the chaotic scene of everyone together, and Mulan walked down the stairs, bent her waist, and asked with a smile what happened.
"Didn't you see the cat?"
Jiao Triangle looked at Xiao Er, who had just come to report the news, they said that the cat picked up a sharp bone and rushed to Prime Minister Ping's room with murderous spirits, and even added fuel to the fact that the shopkeeper took Mulan away, he closed his eyes and thought about it with his toes, and knew that the shopkeeper and the prime minister were angry with their belts, and they had a bad idea to send Mulan into the tiger's mouth.
At the moment, he took the prop scythe that was put aside, and he wanted to find someone desperately.
The little two looked for Jiao Triangle and wanted him to persuade the cat, don't go against the adults, it is to endure hardships, but they didn't expect that Jiao Triangle is also a violent temper, and he didn't think about turning big things into small things and small things, and he saw that he was also going to rush up and fight hard, for fear of causing trouble, so he pulled them and became the chaotic scene now.
"I've never seen myself upstairs and down."
"This ......" Jiao Triangle put down the sickle in his hand, seeing that Mulan was unharmed, he didn't have a desperate mind, and discussed with Xiao Er to go upstairs to find the cat first, so as not to collide with the adult.
After some searching, I still found nothing.
Cats, disappeared into thin air?
It was late at night, and after searching for a long time, the cat was indeed not found, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant began to chase people.
Everyone in the troupe had to put the matter aside first, and returned to the inn, Jiao Triangle was worried that the cat was not captured by some thief, and it was difficult to sit still, so after thinking about it, he pushed the door open, walked a few steps, came to Chanchan's door, and knocked a few times.
When he was in the restaurant, he saw Chanchan's magical powers, when they first met, he thought that Chanchan was just a rich lady, and running away in the middle of the night was purely rich fun or some other reason, the second time they met, she turned into a homeless man begging under the bridge in Yongwu Town, and was found back by Si Wenchu, he didn't know why she did this, let alone ask her origin and background, everyone was just a simple relationship between Pingshui and helping each other when they went out, even friends were not counted, and there was really no position to ask questions.
But now, the cat has disappeared into thin air. He has always felt guilty about the bitter thing that caused him to live after throwing the cat to the powerful in Chang'an, and this time it was he who asked the cat to go to the restaurant with him to cause his current disappearance, so it is reasonable that he has the responsibility to find the cat.
Chanchan can conjure a doll out of thin air, that doll is still a monster, presumably she is a capable person related to monsters, so can it also solve such a thing as finding someone's whereabouts?
The focal triangle is also uncertain, but it is always necessary to ask and try.
It didn't take long for the door to open, and a round head poked out.
When his head saw Jiao Triangle, he sighed, opened the door wide, and let him in.
"Class master, you came just in time, I was about to look for you."
Jiao Triangle was puzzled, Chanchan hurriedly explained: "It's not a secret, I'm actually a little Taoist priest who hunted demons in Luoyang, I came here for some reason, and the cat is also my friend, I am worried that he disappeared for no reason, and now I have a way to find out his whereabouts, but I need your help." ”
"Girl, please speak, whether I go up the knife mountain or go down to the sea of fire, it is my duty to do it." He patted his chest and reassured.
Chanchan hurriedly waved her hand: "It's not so difficult, just one of your hairs." ”
"Hair?"
"Yes, there is a saying: Three thousand troubles, hair not only carries troubles, but also people's thoughts, your thoughts and worries about cats now can help me use your hair to find cats."
It turned out that when she came back from the restaurant, Chanchan was in her own room studying all kinds of things taught by the beauty when she was a child, and she blamed her for being playful when she was a child, and she always didn't pay attention to these literary crepes and things that she wanted to use her brain.
In her memory, she always remembered that there was such a spell to find people, but she couldn't remember it all of a sudden, and it was also through the reminder of Cha Cha Mu that she remembered that there was a way to find people.
Jiao Triangle didn't say a word, immediately plucked out a few of his hairs, and handed them all over to Chanchan: "It's all up to you, Miss Chanchan." ”
Taking the hair handed by Jiao Triangle, Chanchan placed it neatly on the tea table.
Cha Cha Mu seamlessly connected and sent another piece of tea on his body, drew a talisman on the hair with one hand, and recited a long spell in his mouth, the hair seemed to suddenly come to life, shaking his slender body on the tea table, floating in the air, the spell in Chanchan's mouth became faster and faster, and the frequency of hair trembling became faster and faster.
Finally, after Chanchan finished saying the last words, she quickly flew out of the window.
"The hair flew out, how do we know the cat is there? I can't catch up......" Jiao Triangle stood up, so anxious that he rushed in the direction where the hair flew away.
"Isn't it right here?" Chanchan waved the green leaves in her hand, the lines on the green leaves were constantly changing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Jiao Triangle waited patiently, and finally saw the signs.
The lines on the green leaves, each line has a strange familiarity, like a miniature version of the map of Yongwu Town, not long after, another point of light appeared on the green leaves, it was on the street not far from Wanghai Tower, it was constantly moving.
"This is a living map for cats." Jiao Triangle let out a sigh of admiration, admiring Chanchan's profound Taoism, the heart that fell in mid-air was finally able to sink down.
