Chapter Twenty-Three: Luofeng Villa The mysterious owner

The next day, Yi Xue, Sima Jingwen and others came to Zhifeng Tea House as promised.

There was still not a single guest in the tea house, as if it was waiting for them.

When they arrived at the teahouse, the man saw that everyone was coming, so he led everyone to the street and sat down.

Then he brought a pot of tea, and brought some refreshments and said: "According to the rules of our Luofeng Villa, the lord only sees Mu Gongzi alone, and the rest of the people please wait here, there is tea served, and there is food at noon, you just need to wait here with peace of mind." ”

When Murong Jia heard that only Yi Xue was going alone, he immediately became anxious: "What kind of rule is this, why is Mu Yi only allowed to go alone?" You Luofeng Villa is so mysterious, who knows where you will take my brother, no, I will go with you. ”

"Yes, why did you let Mu Gongzi go alone?" Although Sima Jingwen didn't speak as frivolously as Murong Jia, he was also a little uneasy.

The guy smiled and said: "You don't have to worry, the rules of Luofeng Villa have always been like this, who does the owner want to see, how to see it, just follow the instructions, Mu Gongzi is brought into the village by Mr. Guan, and he will return safely." ”

"That is, the rules of the village, we should follow them, and you don't have to worry." Yi Xue comforted.

"The little one will serve you in the tea house, my name is Guan Xiaoyuan, just call me if you have something."

Murong Jia wanted to speak again, but was stopped by Yi Xue raising his hand: "Senior brother, the guest is the Lord, we are here to ask for trouble, everything is according to the rules, everyone obeys." ”

When Murong Jia heard Yi Xue say this, he had no choice but to give up.

Guan Xiaoyuan took Yi Xue to the inner courtyard, Guan Lao was already waiting under the corridor in the courtyard, Yi Xue stepped forward to give Guan Lao a salute: "Mu Yi has seen Mr. Guan, bother!" ”

Guan Lao nodded slightly, and said with a full heart: "Let's go!" ”。

took Yi Xue to the corner gate of the inner courtyard, a carriage was parked outside the corner gate, the step stool had already been placed, the coachman waited for the old man to get into the carriage, and Yi Xue followed behind.

When the coachman saw that Yi Xue was seated, he lowered the dark curtain, jumped into the carriage and whipped up and drove out of the city.

The carriage went out of Jiangdu City all the way to the west, and the old man on the carriage closed his eyes slightly and did not speak, and after about half an hour, the speed of the carriage slowed down, and it was a little round and round from high to low.

Yi Xue wanted to lift the curtain to see the situation outside, but she was hindered by Guan Lao, so through the light through the curtain, she looked at the low hillside outside, Yi Xue thought to herself: This place looks like a mountainous and hilly landform.

After walking for about half an hour, the carriage stopped, the coachman jumped out of the car, opened the curtain, put down the step stool, the coachman helped Guan Lao get out of the carriage, and Yi Xue followed.

Seeing that the carriage stopped in a courtyard, Yi Xue looked around, this is an outer courtyard, surrounded by high walls, and surrounded by mountains outside the wall.

Guan Lao didn't say anything and walked in front, Yi Xue followed, passed through the three inner courtyards, and came to the front of a big house, the foundation of this house was extremely high, and when he looked up, there was a mountain behind the house, this house didn't look like a resident, but like a big hall.

There were more than a dozen masked guards standing on both sides of the stone steps of the foundation and in front of the door, and when they saw Guan Lao, they all bowed their heads and raised their hands to salute.

Guan Lao walked up the stone steps, the door opened, and Yi Xue followed Guan Lao into the hall, and the layout of the hall surprised Yi Xue.

The main hall is arranged like a Taoist temple, the wall and the roof are painted with auspicious clouds and flying luan Xiangfeng, the cigarette smoke lingers in the hall, the incense burner, flowers and fruits, and wine are all available on the case, but the three painted statues of the worship are not the three halal people.

I saw that the portrait of the middle one was not outstanding, and there was a tablet below, which read: The position of the ancestor Han Jing Marquis Pang Shiyuan.

Yi Xue thought about it in her heart, and it turned out that Pang Shiyuan, who was known as the "Phoenix Chick", was enshrined here.

Yi Xue didn't have time to look at the tablets of the other two statues, but looking at the appearance of the dress, it should be Zhuge Kongming and Guan Yu Guan Yunchang.

Guan Lao kept walking forward, Yi Xue knew that this was no longer the main hall, it seemed that this house was connected to the mountain behind, which made Yi Xue couldn't help but think of the sentence in the secret words, "There is a house in the mountain, let's talk about it when we see it!" ”

Guan Lao walked into an empty hall, there were rockeries and pools in the hall, and a stone couch was built in the middle, carved with exquisite patterns and covered with precious furs, and a man in a blue robe and a mask sat on it, and on either side of the man stood two old men and a middle-aged man.

Guan Lao stepped forward and bowed: "Subordinates see the lord!" ”

The man with the mask said majestically and clearly: "Elder Zhifeng has worked hard, but the person who came is Mu Yi?" ”

Yi Xue hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "In Muyi, Luoyang, meet the owner." ”

The owner Pang Qing said: "Mu Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, I guess you already know the rules of Luofeng Villa, since what you are asking for is related to food, this seat does not want to listen to the sage's truth, what is the specific matter, you tell the truth." ”

Yi Xue was thinking all the way, how to talk to the owner of Pang Zhuang about the tomb of King Shanyang, but he didn't expect this Pang Qing in front of him to be so direct, thinking of what Long Si said to Murong Jia, it seems that Long Si is indeed a person from Luofeng Villa, and they are afraid that they know it in their hearts.

Yi Xue bowed down and said: "Back to the owner, what you ask for will make the owner difficult, but this matter is indeed about the people in the world." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

Yi Xue said honestly:

"Under is to follow the king of Langya to Yangzhou to supervise the case of Jiangyin lost grain, we have found out that the Yin soldiers borrowed grain is purely false, the grain was transported from the end of the twelve halls ashore, hidden to the tomb of the king of Shanyang, we surveyed the underground palace in the tomb of the king of Shanyang, and found that the phoenix seal on the stone of the underground palace organ is a unique mark of Luofeng Villa, so we came to ask for the key to open the pipe nail of the underground palace."

Hearing that Yi Xue came to ask for the nail tube key, the owner of Pang Zhuang did not refuse, and he said very frankly:

"That's right, the mechanism of this Shanyang King Tomb is indeed set up by Luofeng Villa. Many years ago, the descendants of the Liu family of the king of Shanyang came with a phoenix talisman, saying that the tomb of the king of Shanyang had been stolen by the captain of the touching gold, so he asked to re-set the cemetery organ.

The ancestors of the Liu family once helped my great-grandfather, so they got the phoenix talisman, and the rules of Luofeng Villa are that those who see the phoenix talisman will respond to their requests, so Luofeng Villa has no reason to refuse them. But the rivers and lakes have the rules of the rivers and lakes, and since this organ is set up by my Luofeng Villa, there is no reason to betray the descendants of the Liu family."

"I understand that this matter is really difficult, but only the owner can solve it. Pang Zhuang lord is the dragon and phoenix in the people, but also the heart of the world's heroes, since the end of the Han Dynasty the world chaos, to the first Emperor Wu period only had this great unification, hundreds of years rare today's peace, although Jia Hou brutal, but natural disasters and man-made disasters can not compare to the military chaos, now the strong Hu offence, if the disaster relief food, the border of the military food is broken, the displaced people make chaos, Hu people go south, then the world will be ruined, so in the next dare to ask to see the owner of the village to allow this matter. ”

When the owner Pang Qing heard this, there was a loud laugh from behind the mask: "It's rare that Mu Gongzi is so young and so thoughtful, Gongzi doesn't have to worry, in fact, this tap stone doesn't have to be opened by me Luofeng Villa." ”

Yi Xue was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly asked: "Please make it clear to the owner!" ”

Pang Qingdao: "In fact, even if Luofeng Villa opens this tap stone, you only get the food, but you have not actually investigated Yong's crime of stealing grain, let alone the person behind Zha Yong, this matter must force Zha Yong to open the tap stone." ”

Hearing Pang Qing's words, Yi Xue deeply agreed, this was something that she, Sima Jingwen, and Murong Jia had never thought of, there was only physical evidence, and the scene was not captured, although the food could be recovered, but the mastermind was at large.

So Yi Xue said: "Then what should we do?" ”

"Since the rules of our Luofeng Villa are: those who see the phoenix talisman will respond to their needs, and those who do not have the phoenix talisman will pay for it. You might as well let it go, saying that King Langya has come to Luofeng Villa to ask for the nail pipe key, but Luofeng Villa did not agree, so now Langya King has the rules of seeing that Feng Fu has to respond, and buys the Feng Fu of Luofeng Villa with a high bounty, just for the pattern of the nail tube key. ”

When Yi Xue heard this, she couldn't help but admire and give a deep thank you: "I admire the foresight and wisdom of Master Pang Zhuang, Master Pang Zhuang is really a real hero." During this period, we traced the whereabouts of the grain day and night, but we did not think carefully about how to investigate the guilt of Yong and others. ”

Behind the mask, there was a loud laugh: "Mu Gongzi praised it falsely, the ancestor Feng Xiao, Yaqi Yeye, the deadly master, loyal and honest, and died to repay virtue." Now although Luofeng Villa is in the rivers and lakes, it does not dare to violate the ancestral teachings of the Pang family. ”

After speaking, he said to Guan Lao: "There is also Elder Lao Zhifeng to take Mu Gongzi away from the villa!" ”

Guan Lao replied: "The lord is polite, this is the matter of the little old man." ”
