Weicheng Station originally referred to the official post station located in Weicheng.

However, as an important post house to go to the Western Regions, welcome to most of the Wenchen military generals stationed in the Western Regions, although to go to the Western Regions to wade through the quicksand and snow mountains, it is difficult to return, but because of the complex environment there, known as the 36 countries of the Western Regions, large and small wars are continuous, and it is an important business route connecting the Tang Dynasty to the West, it is easy to make contributions.

Even come to see off, there is no lack of princes and generals, so the head of the Weicheng Station, do his best to manage the ability, the Weicheng Station built extremely luxurious, pavilions, rockeries and flowing water, no less than the other fields of the rich princes in the capital.

Not only the post chief, but even the local county magistrates, county lieutenants and other people in the public gate are also very familiar with this post station.

In addition to this grand post house, there are also many private inns for business travel. It can be said that everyone in Weicheng lives on the livelihood of this post house and inn.

Therefore, sometimes the so-called Weicheng Station also refers to the city of Weicheng.

Zhao Dalu specially dredged with the post chief, chose a secluded garden for the two, and arranged a group of singers and singers, who took care of them diligently, so it was not lively.

Guo Yuxian Yuyan followed Zhao Dalu all the way to the post house, and as soon as she turned to the corner gate of the garden where the two were located, she felt that the situation was not right, and there was a lot of singing in several courtyards in the distance, and it seemed too quiet here.

The crowd slowed down and looked into the middle of the garden.

The situation is really the same as what Zhao Dalu said, a group of drummers, a few singers, those who play the qin, those who play the sheng, those who beat the beat, those who dance, those who persuade wine, are very attentive and waiting for the two people sitting at the table.

The scene was very noisy, but there was no music or singing to come.

When I looked closely, those singers, like wood carved clay sculptures, made their own movements, but froze there motionless.

On the table, a noble son, a short and fat Jinwuwei Street envoy dressed up, the appearance is indeed Xian Yuyan's appearance, and the two are talking and laughing and eating wine.

That noble boy was a completely unfamiliar face, and he couldn't think of where he had seen it.

Guo Hua couldn't help sighing in his heart, it seems that this person didn't change his appearance at all, so he came to pretend to be himself.

The two of them saw Zhao Dalu and others coming, but they didn't panic, Yi Chengxian looked like Yu Yan just cared about eating and drinking, and the strange noble son smiled slightly, raised a glass of wine, and signaled to everyone.

Those singers are still wood carvings and clay sculptures. I don't know if I sealed the acupuncture point, or if I did something else.

The scene was very weird, and the natural appearance of the two made Guo Yu and Xian Yuyan a little embarrassed.

"Guo Gongzi, Xianyu adults, it's rare to have a fate today, it's better to sit down and have a drink. "The sound is as good as a silver bell.

As soon as Guo Hua heard this voice, he was seven or eight points sure in his heart.

It's that weird girl again. However, this time I used the means of disguise, the pair of beautiful dimples on my face were gone, my eyebrows were repainted, and I deliberately used a different kind of incense to cover up my body fragrance. If you are not a particularly caring person, it is difficult to see the clues.

The man who changed his appearance into Xian Yuyan got up and left, he walked very strangely, as if the body was not his own, and the fat on his body shook a little strangely.

I saw him walking slowly, slowly taking out a palm-sized thing, putting it to his mouth and blowing it.

The music was melodious, and when the fake Xian Yuyan went around behind Guo Yu and the others, those who were frozen singers slowly resumed their actions, playing and singing, pouring wine and dancing, all cheerful, and judging from their expressions, they didn't seem to realize what they had just been done.

"Let him go and change his clothes and come back soon, this one is too hot. The people at the table saw that everyone was looking at the fake Xianyu and shouted.

Xian Yuyan whispered a few words to Zhao Dalu, and Zhao Dalu immediately dismissed a few entourages, and the three of them came to the table and sat down together.

"Guo Gongzi, Lord Xianyu, and this Lord Zhao, please bear with me if I am offended. Although the man apologized, he was a little playful, and he really couldn't be angry.

"You're welcome, but I don't know what to call this son?" asked Guo Yu. It's better to play with her than to break it.

"The younger brother Li Changsheng, I have heard the name of Guo Gongzi for a long time, and I have admired it for a long time. ”

"Oh, is that the name of a swinger who doesn't know how to learn and specialize in the side door?" Guo Hua raised a glass of wine and gestured.

"yes. Otherwise, what do you think others know about you? Dashing, gentle and considerate?" Li Changsheng raised his head and drank a glass of wine in his stomach first.

"Hahahaha, in the next called although there is no action, but nothing is done, hahahaha. Guo Yu took a full drink and replied.

"Guo Gongzi did everything, he saw all the girls in Chang'an City. After Li Changsheng finished speaking, he giggled.

"Hey, this, I don't dare to say that I have seen it all, I dare not say that I have seen it all, eighty or ninety percent, and it will be eighty or ninety percent. I am familiar with girls who are generally a little bit beautiful. Guo Hua was cheeky and said deliberately.

"Hush. Say you're fat, you're still panting. Changsheng Gongzi's face was slightly angry, and he shook his head to the side.

Guo Hua was slightly happy in his heart. Tilt your head to look at her.

At this moment, the person pretending to be Xian Yuyan returned. It is also five short figures, but it is very thin, no wonder pretending to be Xian Yuyan, wearing bulging bags, to deliberately do the effect of obesity.

At this time, he had changed into a servant's outfit, and his disguised face was removed, revealing his black hair. It's a black-haired monkey, a Fuso Yakushi Pill, and a special guard by the Emperor's side.

The special personal guard of the Emperor Taishang was with the people of the King of Guangping. Could it be that King Guangping chose to stand on the side of the Emperor?

Perhaps, it was the Emperor Taishang who chose the King of Guangping. After all, King Guangping and King Ning are currently the hottest figures competing for the crown prince.

Seeing Guo Hua staring at the pharmacist pill thoughtfully, Li Changsheng was happy and explained to Guo Yu and Xian Yuyan: "Oh, this is my personal follower, a gift from my grandfather, you can call him a monkey." Lord Xian Yuyan, hehe, I'm offended, but then again, it's really difficult for him to pretend to be you with his figure, except for his height. ”

Xian Yuyan looked at the pharmacist pill, touched his stomach again, and smiled dumbly, "Gong——,zi Gongzi, Li Gongzi laughed, I didn't expect that Li Gongzi's disguise technique was so subtle, and he could pretend to be like me, it was really amazing." Awesome, awesome. ”

"Hey. Don't say kind words, Guo Gongzi and Xian Yu don't know how to entrust the two of you?"

"It turns out that Li Gongzi made a special trip to come here, is he not worried about our ability to do things?" Guo Hua asked rhetorically.

"Hey, you're a big man, you're quite sensitive. This matter is about a friend who is outside the world, and he doesn't want to get involved in the red dust because of this matter, so I want to follow you, so that you don't accidentally bump into things. Although I don't want too many people to know about this matter, I can't help but think about it, and there is no way to get him to help you take a closer look. ”

"Or, I'll invite Du Gongzi over?" Zhao Dalu ushered in a lot of send-offs in Weicheng, and it was inevitable that he would be contaminated with some accident habits, and seeing that Guo Yu and Xian Yuyan were very polite to that person, they knew that that person's identity must be very special, so he said something by the way.

"Did I say that I invited them to come over? Do you see that there is a ushering in here, is it convenient? You are a slave who is quite clever in handling things, why are you confused with Guo Dagongzi now. Let's wait for Guo Gongzi and Lord Xian Yu to have dinner, and take us to your mansion. ”

Zhao Da's road was red, and he was speechless for a while. Loud and loud.

is a very handsome son, but he speaks so trickily and harshly, but he has to admire that this person is very smart.

Guo Hua hurriedly played a round and ate and drank. Everyone didn't dare to delay more, and at three o'clock, everyone was full of wine and food, and under the guidance of Zhao Dalu, they came to the Weicheng Mansion.

In a remote and cold courtyard, the moonlight is like water, and on a stone table, under a fire candle, there are a few small dishes. A jug of wine, and two farewell people.

Du Huan and Cen Shen, just this morning, bid farewell to their old friends of more than ten years and returned to their homeland. Thinking of friends and thinking of Datang's current national fortunes, I don't know whether to be happy for my old friends or lament for myself.

The two sometimes laughed and sometimes sighed, slowly immersed in the time long ago. I had already left Zhao Dalu's advice behind.

At this time, on a roof ridge in the east wing, a thin dark red snake was spitting letters, and was swimming, looking very elegant under the cold moonlight.

When you listen closely, there is also a subtle whistle that gently echoes around.

Soon, it swam to the front of the eaves, raised its head, and saw two people in the courtyard drinking heartily, stretching their bodies defenselessly, with unbridled expressions.

Suddenly, the whistle tone was raised, and it became very strange and harsh.

As if receiving an order, the snake quickly ejected, and its body suddenly soared in midair, opening its bloody mouth, wanting to swallow Du Huan and Cen Shen into its stomach.

The two men who were drinking freely did not notice the sudden calamity.

When Du Huanzheng picked up a glass of wine and brought it to his lips.

The huge mouth of the red snake was hanging three feet above the heads of the two.

Suddenly, there was a call: "Du Gongzi." Master Cen. ”

It was Guo Yao's voice, the voice was crisp and pleasant, although it was not deafening, but it attracted the cups and bowls on the table, sending out a buzzing resonance.

In this way, the snake, which had become very huge, suddenly disappeared out of thin air. It's like a dream, but I don't know if it's Du Huan's dream, Cen Shen's dream, Guo Hua's dream, or the snake's dream.

After greeting each other, they introduced each other. Zhao Dalu arranged for people to add wine and food, and a feast went straight to the time of the morning.

Guo Yu saw that everyone was full of wine and food, so he asked Zhao Dalu to arrange the hall and light a high candle. Then he explained his intention to Du Huan and Cen Shen.

"General Gao's treasure map, a painting?" After listening to this, Du Huan and Cen Shen couldn't help but look at each other with a puzzled expression.

Guo Hua then unfolded the scroll, and the two of them looked at it, and their faces couldn't help but show a sense of fierceness.

"Well, this painting of the rivers is magnificent, the mountains are majestic, and the clouds are vast, which really makes people miss the days when they were in the Western Regions. Cen Shen twisted a few strands of sparse beard and said happily.

"yes. This is indeed the general's handiwork, I want to go to the desert back then, hunting geese day by day, so unhappy. Du Huan agreed.

"Hey, hey, I didn't let you identify the authenticity of this painting, it doesn't matter if this painting is painted by Gao Xianzhi himself, the important thing is that you don't see any clues in this painting?" Li Changsheng interrupted the two of them a little eagerly.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I also ask this Changsheng boy to forgive me, the two of us have seen things and thought about people, and I indulged for a while. ”

Cen Shen said, and Du Huan picked up the picture scroll and looked at it carefully, not only the painting, but even the bamboo pipe that held the painting, and looked at it carefully.

The two of them shook their heads while watching, and Guo Yu and Li Changsheng couldn't help but be disappointed.

"Can't you see any clues?" asked Guo Hua.

Du Huan and Cen Shen looked at each other and sighed. Du Huan said: "Everyone, please don't dislike us and other chatter. This painting is indeed General Gao's own handwriting, I follow the general all the year round, stationed at the border, see where the mountains and rivers are majestic and magnificent, on a whim, the general will always draw a few strokes, his painting I recognize. But if you want to say that he has a treasure map, tsk, tsk, the two of us are confused, although we are civil officials, we are also stationed in the Western Regions all the year round, and we have seen a lot of various maps, and this painting does not look like a map. If there is anything strange about it, there are one or two points that have to be considered. ”

"Oh?" When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but focus their eyes on Du Huan and Cen Shen again.

"Let's talk about my side first", Du Huan looked at everyone's expectant eyes, "Look at this place, this is Kunlun Mountain, this is Qilian Mountain, this is Tianshan Mountain, this is Green Mountain, this is Peacock River, here is Huashan, here is Mount Tai, here is Wutai Mountain, here is the Yellow River, here is the Yangtze River, these mountains and rivers, although the layout is ingenious, there is nothing wrong with it, but it is completely indifferent to their actual location and relationship with each other. Especially here, this glacial lake, I remember seeing the general practicing a small painting, very similar to this one, I once asked the general what kind of place it was, and the general said that it was what he saw in a night's dream, and he thought it was very strange, so he painted it. Brother Fang Cai Guo said that the things carried on the march on this road may be the treasures, but this road is definitely not a real road, and it is difficult to see the actual direction it refers to. ”

Du Huan stopped and looked at Cen Shen.

"Well, Du Gongzi is right. There is still a suspicious point in the old decay, which may have been noticed by everyone, that is, the three words of Zitongmen. There is nothing written in this painting, not even on the bamboo tube, maybe there is something special about these three words. ”

Cen Shen stopped, as if he was thinking about whether he should say the rest of the story.

"Well, we also think that these three words are the key to solving the mystery of this painting, but does Master Cen know the origin of these three words?" asked Guo Yu modestly.

"This is a place name. ”
