Chapter 242: The Man Nan Jiaojiao Met
When Nan Baoyi and Xiao Yi came outside the house, they saw Jiang Suihan and Xie Alou walking through the courtyard in a hurry, carrying large bags and small bags in their hands, looking like they had just returned from a distant trip.
Jiang Suihan said: "I heard that the battle was difficult, so we rushed over to help. I didn't think about it, but as soon as I was halfway there, I heard that the war was over! ”
Xie Alou smiled: "I bought some flower cakes and fruits in the city, all of which I liked when I was a child." Not a local of Jinling City, I don't know these old shops, you also try them? ”
Two Living Treasures......
Nan Baoyi commented in his heart, holding Xiao Yi's arm, not wanting to deal with them.
Xie Alou could see at a glance that something was wrong with her.
She walked up the steps with a smile and flicked Nan Baoyi's white and tender forehead: "When I crossed the river, I heard the boatman say that we have a little princess in Dayong." It's just that someone didn't take good care of the little princess and left her in the river. But really? ”
Nan Baoyi's eyes were red, and he clenched his handkerchief tightly.
Xiao Yi immediately protected her behind him and scolded Xie Alou: "Do you believe other people's nonsense? Don't bully her. ”
Xie Alou smiled: "Look at Your Majesty's nervousness, I just tease her a few words, can I still eat her?" I heard that the army is still searching for the whereabouts of the little princess along the river, but His Majesty's army is all northerners, and they are not familiar with the terrain and water system in this area, so it is better to leave this matter to me. ”
Her tone was firm.
Nan Baoyi poked out half of his little face from Xiao Yi's back, and Danfeng's eyes were bright.
Yes, she heard Xie Alou say that she grew up in Jinling when she was a child, and she only entered the palace as a female official at the age of twelve, and it seems that she has an important relationship with some force in the south......
Jiang Suihan explained: "Xiaolou said that the Cao Gang in the south is controlled by her. The men of the Cao Gang stay on the river all the year round, know the nearby water system well, and are good at water, rather than asking the northern army to find clues, it is better to ask the Cao Gang to find it. ”
That's a good idea.
Nan Baoyi's face was even brighter, and he couldn't help but look at Xiao Yi expectantly.
Xiao Yi couldn't do it either.
He always felt that Xie Alou and Jiang Suihan were very unreliable, but now, they can only be dead horses as live horse doctors.
The Cao Gang investigated for three days.
Nan Baoyi seemed to come back to life, waking up in hope every day, dragged by Xie Alou and them, and almost visited Jinling City all day.
Xie Ah Lou is especially fond of Wuyi Lane.
She pointed to one of the mansions: "This is my ancestral home. My ancestor was the founder of Dayong, but he never married in his life, and later succeeded my wife and grandfather, no, it should be my wife and grandfather......"
She counted the seniority with her fingers, and after too long, she couldn't figure it out.
Nan Baoyi stopped and walked in the alley and inadvertently walked into the depths of the alley.
There is also an old mansion here.
She looked up.
The plaque inscribed with the word "Xiao Fu" is simple and old, there are no fallen leaves in front of the door, two terrazzo lions stand majestically, the lanterns hanging under the eaves are faded but very clean, and the rusty green on the door knocker has only been carefully wiped.
"Squeak".
It was dusk, and someone pushed the door open.
He carried an old lamp, his posture was long and straight, his feet were covered with white cloth shoes, and he was wearing a loose bellflower blue suit, and his body was restrained and deep.
He locked the door, gently pressed his forehead and palm against the door, lowered his eyes, and said softly as if he was whispering to his sweetheart: "At the end of the year, I will come back ......"
He closed his eyes and paused for a long time before turning and walking down the steps.
Seeing Nan Baoyi in a daze, he bent his eyes and smiled.
His appearance is excellent, and when he laughs, Xuanyue's eyebrows are warm, his peach blossom eyes are affectionate, and the cinnabar mole under his left eye is bright red.
He and Nan Baoyi staggered by, and his voice was gentle and clear: "If you can't find it, you might as well go to the underground dark river to try." There is always something that has been forgotten underground. ”
Nan Baoyi's pupils dilated.
When she came back to her senses and turned to look at the young man, the alley was empty, and there was no trace of the other party.
It's night.
During dinner, when Nan Baoyi mentioned his experience in Wuyi Lane, Xiao Yi was stunned: "Did you really meet that person?" ”
"Second brother's question is ridiculous, could it be that I am hallucinating?" Nan Baoyi was not angry, "That person gave me a sense of unfathomability, maybe some kind of worldly master, seeing that I do too many good deeds on weekdays, he kindly guided me." I've asked my aunt to turn the focus of her investigation to the underground river, and I'm sure I'll find the little ugly soon! ”
She was full of confidence and concentrated on bowing her head and drinking lotus leaf stuffing.
Xiao Yi was still distracted.
Ancestor Yongwu Emperor lived in that mansion when he was young, Yeshi said that Emperor Yongwu later got the art of immortality, because he was lonely and couldn't sleep under a peach blossom tree, he didn't know the turn of the years, he didn't know the change of dynasties, he would only wake up occasionally and return to the ancestral house to clean the mansion.
Could it be that Nan Jiaojiao met the man during the day......
That night, Nan Baoyi had fallen asleep, and Xiao Yi came to Xiao's Mansion alone in the depths of Wuyi Lane, and solemnly presented the sacrificed melons, fruits, cattle and sheep.
He did not believe in gods.
But now, I am also willing to thank my ancestors for their protection.
Two days later, Xie Alou rushed to find Nan Baoyi with the good news sent by the Cao Gang.
"This is a map of the underground river system that they spent two days figuring out," she said, spreading the drawing on the bookcase, pointing to the black dot in the middle, "All the underground rivers will eventually gather here and then flood into the East China Sea." They wanted to go here to check, but it seemed that there was a gossip formation around them, and they couldn't find their way in. ”
Nan Baozhu gnawed on the pig's knuckle and muttered: "What you said is the same as not saying it, there is still no whereabouts of the little princess." ”
Nan Baoyi glanced at her helplessly: "Little cousin, are you stupid, if you set up a formation, it means that there is something strange there, and it is worth seeing it in person." ”
Nan Baozhu realized later: "It's really true! ”
Han Yan grabbed his sword neatly: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, let's go over now." ”
Xiao Yi and other male dependents sat by the window.
He took the drawings handed by Nan Baoyi and looked at them for a while: "I have to find someone who is proficient in the gossip formation to accompany me." ”
The study was silent for a moment, and everyone looked at each other.
It's hard to find strange people who are proficient in the gossip formation......
Nan Baozhu put down the pig's knuckle, wiped the sauce on the side of his mouth, and said: "You may not believe it, in the two years in Northern Xinjiang, in addition to studying cooking, I actually studied the five elements gossip. ”
The crowd pretended not to hear.
Nan Baoyi proposed: "Why don't you go to the street and ask for a fortune teller?" ”
Han Yanliang nodded: "I'll see it." ”
Nan Baozhu: "......"
She was despised!
As a result, they couldn't find the fortune teller, so everyone had to take Nan Baozhu on the road.
The light boat sailed into the underground river.
Nan Baoyi stood at the bow of the boat with a wrought iron wind lamp, and through the hazy light, he could vaguely see that the river was endless, and the sound of the river surging was like a stormy wave in the silent underground.
