Bai Luo, Yu Lei and Lu Yubao rode their horses to Licheng. Along the way, I confidently rushed to Licheng. Licheng and Xindu are adjacent to Langya, and to Langya in the south, Licheng is the only way to go. Five years ago, the road was full of merchants and monks. Now it looks desolate and lonely, and the lush old trees on both sides of the road almost obscure the official road.

The three of them walked extremely fast, and a Saker let out a long roar in the air and swooped down from the air. Yu Lei was at the forefront, and he did not tighten the reins. He lifted his hand from the flying black hair, and the Saker landed firmly on his wrist.

Yu Lei has a silver ring on his slender index finger. The falcon was extremely well trained, and it had a very tacit understanding with Yu Lei, and it landed one foot on the leather bracer on Yu Lei's right wrist, and the other foot firmly on the silver ring on Yu Lei's fingertips.

Yu Lei raised his right thumb and flicked it lightly on the foot of the falcon, and a small roll of paper tied to the foot of the falcon fell into Yu Lei's palm. The falcon then spread its wings and flew into the air again, disappearing into the sky.

Until the falcon left, Yu Lei's speed on horseback did not decrease at all. Yu Lei glanced at the paper, frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Something happened to Hugh Tuze." ”

Bai Luo: "What's wrong?"

Yu Lei shook his head: "I don't know, it shouldn't matter much." ”

Having said that, Yu Lei was uneasy in his heart. Hugh Tuze has been well taken care of by himself after five years. Even if he and Helan Chonghua were not in ordinary matters, the disciples of Hutu Ze could handle it themselves.

Helan Chonghua was in such a hurry to rush back, which shows that things are tricky.

But when the reckless bone god appeared, Yu Lei intuitively felt that this matter was directed at Bai Luo, and it was even more tricky.

Yu Lei raised his whip, and the pure black steed was three points faster: "The Reckless Bone God has lost its trace, we still need to find the Sky Crack in Licheng quickly." ”

The three of them walked along the official road, and if there were fallen branches on the road ahead, they crossed them on horseback. In this way, in less than a moment, it turned into the gate of Licheng.

"Martial Divine Monarch!"

"White Girl!"

The shouts of three people came from behind them.

Bai Luolema turned around and saw Xiao Danfeng, Xiao Xifeng and Xie Jinyan coming over on horseback. I don't know why these three people went all the way.

The three of them all looked like they had not had a good rest for a long time, and they all had short stubble on their chins. Xiao Xifeng is the youngest of Mu Yun's seven sons, and after not seeing him for a few days, it seems that he has suddenly grown several years old. Xie Jinyan is even more so, he has lost a lot of weight, and his eyebrows are three points like Xie Zhanning.

Bai Luo said lightly: "The two Xiao Gongzi don't need to call me Shenjun outside, just call me Bai Girl like Xie Er Gongzi." ”

Xie Jinyan said happily: "White girl, we just met the four of Xue Gongzi on the official road in Dongping, and we met you again now." ”

Bai Luo looked behind Xie Jinyan, but did not see the figures of Xue Yu, Ye Ming, Jiang Qinghan and Jiang Jiuji, and said suspiciously: "What about Xue Loach?"

Xiao Xifeng said respectfully: "When we left Shuzhong, we went to Gusu with Mrs. Lu. Within two days of Gusu, I received a tip-off that there were suddenly many demons around Langya. Many people on the official road near Langya have fallen on the road. We went all the way from Gusu to Langya. In the vicinity of Chengyang, I heard that there are many people who have not returned to Licheng to worship their ancestors for a long time, and they feel strange and come to Licheng by detour. met Xue Gongzi and others outside Licheng. Mingyue, Yuyang, and Xue Gongzi went to explore the surroundings first, and we entered the city first. ”

The six of them entered Licheng while talking.

Licheng Hedong does not seem to have been affected much, and the city is extremely prosperous. The bustling crowd and the high-rise buildings with colorful lights are very different from Xiao Suo on the official road.

Yu Lei and Bai Luo glanced at each other, and the two understood each other's meaning without words. If the city is empty and the houses are closed, they don't find it troublesome. is so prosperous now, but it makes people feel cold.

Since ancient times, whether it is war, famine, or evil, the market has been the first to be chaotic. Mu Yun's seven sons can receive a line report in Gusu that there are demons and evil in Licheng, and no one has left the official road for a long time, how can this city still be so lively?

Unless the whole city goes mad.

Zhiqiong's matter almost wiped out half of Yanzhou City. This time, Bai Luo could only be more cautious. Everyone quietly searched for the most lively restaurant in Licheng.

As soon as he entered the building, Xiao Er immediately greeted him: "Ouch, six distinguished guests, unfortunately the small store is full." If you don't mind taking a break for tea here, the little one will bring you some melons and fruits to moisten your mouth?"

As soon as the words fell, there was a creaking sound on the wooden stairs behind Xiao Er, and a middle-aged man actually dragged a young man down the stairs. The middle-aged man was somewhat similar to the young man, and at this time he looked at the young man's face full of anger: "Son, what did you worship because your father asked you to come to worship the mountain?!"

"Knock knock" three times, and the young man was thrown down the stairs and rolled three steps. The young man looked tall but not beaten, and he was still smiling when he fell down the stairs. It looks like you've fallen silly.

A woman rushed in from the door: "Xianggong!

The woman was tall and thin, with a long face, and her appearance was not very ugly. But when the boy looked at the woman, he seemed to have seen some ghost or monster, and he screamed in fright, and shrank into the corner with his head in his hands.

Seeing this, Xiao Er hurriedly walked up: "Zhou Gongzi, what's wrong?"

Bai Luo couldn't help frowning when he saw that Zhou Gongzi. There was a bruise on Zhou Gongzi's neck, as if it had been strangled with hemp rope, but it wrapped around half of his neck.

Xiao Er hurriedly said: "Presumably this is Master Zhou, right? If you have anything to say, it is better to go to the private room and talk to Zhou Gongzi, it doesn't have to be like this. Disturbed other distinguished guests, didn't you?"

Master Zhou blew his beard and glared at Zhou Gongzi: "Are you still a distinguished guest here?"

That Zhou Gongzi was stupid and stupid, but Master Zhou's words couldn't listen to half a word, he kept muttering: "Qing'er, I want Qing'er." ”

Zhou Gongzi was stupid and stupid, and what he said was not very clear, and Master Zhou almost got close to Zhou Gongzi to hear a few words clearly. He frowned and looked at Zhou Gongzi and asked, "Qing'er, who is Qing'er?"

Zhou Gongzi naturally didn't listen to Master Zhou's words. shook his head and only read the word "Qing'er" in his mouth.

Xiao Er smiled and explained to Master Zhou: "This Qing'er girl is a girl from our Laurel Courtyard, but she is a fairy-like person, and she is also famous in our city. ”

"Prostitute?!" Master Zhou's eyes widened in shock. Zhou on the side even covered his face and went out with a whimper.

Xiao Er immediately lowered his face when he heard Master Zhou's words: "Master Zhou, we don't shout like that here." This laurel courtyard is no better than other places, and we all call it 'girl'. ”

"I don't know shame!" Master Zhou immediately scolded, and he didn't even know whether to scold his son who was not angry, or scold this little second good who didn't distinguish between right and wrong.

Xiao Er was not afraid of Master Zhou at all, but helped Zhou Gongzi up: "Zhou Gongzi is not afraid, I will take you back to Miss Qing'er." ”

The stupid and stupid Zhou Gongzi actually showed a smile on his face, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Okay, good." ”

That old man Zhou's face turned white with anger, and he trembled and stretched out his finger to point at Zhou Gongzi: "I...... I don't have a son like you!" he said, brushing his sleeves away.

That Gongzi Zhou let Xiao Er help him go, but he didn't look back at Master Zhou.

Xiao Xifeng felt something different, so he wanted to follow Zhou Gongzi but was stopped by Bai Luo.

Bai Luo said in a low voice: "You don't have to follow that Zhou Gongzi first, you want to secretly follow that Zhou Gongzi." They want to leave the city at this time, and it is estimated that it is dangerous. ”

Xiao Xifeng was stunned and said, "Why is this?"

Bai Luo frowned and said: "Listening to this little er, I actually have great respect for this Qinglou woman. When have you ever seen a woman in a green house with such a high status? And how many people would not even do business in order to fight for such a tongue? These people and this city are very strange. ”

Xiao Xifeng understood a little in his heart, and hurriedly followed Master Zhou's carriage out.

At this time, Xiao Er handed over Zhou Gongzi to the people in the back hall, and turned back by himself: "Yo, a few guest officers have been waiting for a long time, the upstairs private room has been cleaned up, and a few upstairs are please." ”

Bai Luo, Yu Lei and the others walked upstairs. Xiao Er looked behind the two: "Isn't there still a son with the guest officer?"

Bai Luo said lightly: "There is a girl in his family, and when she saw that the pearl hairpins looked good on the road, she went to buy a few." ”

Xiao Er's face suddenly had a proud look: "Naturally, the pearl hairpins and rouge in our Licheng are the best." A few guest officers, please sit down for a while, and the small one will serve some good dishes to a few guest officers. A few guest officers sat down first, and there will be something nice on the street later. ”

Xiao Er's last sentence was mysterious, which made everyone scratch their heads, but there are too many abnormalities in this city. This Xiao Er's attitude seems normal.

Xie Jinyan took a sip of tea and muttered: "When is the best rouge gouache bead hairpin jade ornament in this Licheng?" I remember when my father came back from Langya when I was a child, he specially brought Zihao back to me and my brother. I haven't heard of any good rouge gouache. ”

Lu Yubao glanced at Xie Jinyan: "There is weirdness everywhere here, Xie Ergongzi has a big heart, you dare to drink this tea." ”

Yu Lei blew on the hot tea and said lightly: "This tea is non-toxic." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard a commotion downstairs. The five of them sat near the window, and when they looked up, they saw the situation downstairs.

The crowd that was originally bustling and rubbing shoulders suddenly separated from each other, and before anyone came, they first saw the pink petals rising in the sky.

The pipa and guzheng were plucked at the same time, making a clanging sound. The music was soft to the bone, and someone seemed to be singing tactfully in the sound of the moon.

The road was crowded with men and women, looking in the direction from which the song had come, with a pilgrimage on their faces.

The music drew closer, and then a scene of horror took place. The women were still standing, but the men were on their knees. Whether it was a family or a roadside seller, they all knelt down respectfully.

These people were as infatuated as Zhou Xiaogongzi, but the respect on their faces reminded Bai Luo of the scene of welcoming the holy car many years ago.

Xie Jinyan was even more shocked. Since the four great families ruled the Central Plains together, there has been no emperor, and naturally there is no such system. Even if Xie Bainian is the lord of the four great families, no one will kneel down on the street.

And the two women who came over in the sound of petals and warblers, swallows, swallows, and bamboos in the sky.

The two women stood on top of the float, like the Nine Heavens Xuannu. One bounced the lute, and the other danced like the goddess. The golden veil half-covers the face, and the wind will lift the veil of the two, a pair of sisters who are beautiful and beautiful, and the country and the city.

It's just that the dress, the float, at a glance, you can see that it is the Qinglou Lefang float parade street, not a sacrifice. The men kneeling on both sides added a bit of weirdness to this fragrant picture, and it was speechless for a while.

The women on the float were naturally the two sisters Zhanyue and Yaoyue. It was Zhanyue who danced, and it was Yaoyue who rebounded the pipa. They seemed to have become accustomed to the prostrations of these people.

Looking at the moon is like a fairy who walks down in the mural. Her pair of jade-white arms, dancing like a fairy, supported her waist with one foot and folded softly.

Zhan Yue tilted her head down, and then hung a few inches above the ground and stopped. Her mask was raised as she moved, revealing her pointed chin. Her eyes met the white blue eyes. She smiled lightly, and with a force on her toes, the whole person stood up again. She took off the golden hairpin on her head and threw it at Bai Luo.

The golden hairpin fell in front of Bai Luo with a bang. The crowd on the road saw Zhanyue throw the hairpin and immediately cheered. Even when it is cheering, it is the women who stand and the men who kneel.

It seems that these people don't dare to stand up in front of Yaoyue and Zhanyue, and they seem to be stupid for the two sisters and don't know how to stand up.

Bai Luo frowned slightly, in her eyes, except for gods, men and demons, they were demons and beasts, as for men and women, whether they wore clothes or not, they didn't look much different in her eyes.

Bai Luo became colder and colder, and Zhanyue became more and more coquettish. It's just that this coquettishness fell into Bai Luo's eyes, and it became a demon.

After the floats of the two sisters walked by, Xiao Er followed closely: "This girl, you are really lucky." It was the first time that the girl threw out the golden hairpin. ”

Bai Luo didn't touch the golden hairpin, and frowned: "What does this mean?"

Xiao Er smiled mysteriously: "This is the meaning of inviting the girl into the Laurel Courtyard tonight." That's a great place. ”

Bai Luo's brows furrowed even more: "Isn't she blind?"

"Poof" Lu Yubao squirted out a mouthful of tea, which happened to spray on Xie Jinyan's face. Lu Yubao stretched out his hand across the table to wipe the tea on Xie Jinyan's face while saying, "Bai Ranxi, I guess that the girl who looks at the moon has taken a fancy to you." ”

Bai Luo was even more puzzled: "Isn't that just a blind man?"

Lu Yubao: "......"

Xie Jinyan wiped the water on his face and asked, "White girl, can you go tonight?"

Bai Luo nodded: "Go and explore." ”

"Slap" Yu Lei slammed the teacup in his hand on the table, and there was a bit of vinegar on his face: "I'll accompany you tonight." ”
