Chapter Seventy-Four: Eight People

It was night, in front of a stone table on the mountain behind Lanruo Temple, Bingruo and Guang Greed each held a celadon wine bowl, touched the bowl and drank. There was silence all around, except for a few owls fluttering from tree to tree.

"Master, you have traveled all over the world for many years, have you ever heard of any treasures and heirlooms of the former dynasties?" Bingruo put down the wine bowl, supported his chin with both hands, and asked Guang Greed with a pair of big thoughtful eyes.

Guang Greedy laughed, and said with a profound expression: "Girl, why do you need to pretend in front of the poor monk, don't you really know?"

"At that time, under the gate of Yunzhou City, I really just wanted to see the prefect and ask him to transfer troops to save people, I didn't know what treasures at all. ”

Bingruo didn't lie, in the letter that Luo Feng originally left to Xia Xian, he only taught him how to use the Luo family's treasure to lure Xiao Yuan to transfer troops, but he didn't mention the location of the treasure at all. After she received the holy decree in the afternoon, she locked herself in the house and pondered for a long time, and rushed to the Wuping County Ya in the evening, wanting to discuss countermeasures with Xia Xian, but when she arrived at the Yamen, Zhan Li told her that as soon as Xia Xian came back from Lanruo Temple, she hurried to the Luofu Mausoleum in Yunzhou to find Luo Feng.

"Why don't you go to Yunzhou City to see your father and Luo Feng? The poor monk heard that your father and Luo Mansion are under house arrest, and Luo Feng is also under house arrest in the Luo Family Cemetery. ”

"I know, but I should come up with a way first, otherwise what can I do if I go?" Xia Xian has always been impulsive, and he didn't come to me to discuss and went to Yunzhou City by himself, and now Bingruo can only discuss with you, Master. ”

Guang Greed picked up the wine bowl again, took a big sip of wine, closed his eyes and savored it, and opened his eyes and said: "This daughter is really good!"

"Master......" Bing Ruo lowered his eyes, his hands clenched into fists and gently hung his head, full of melancholy and anxiety.

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, why don't the poor monks take you out to visit and see if you can find the treasure of King Xia Nan, especially the jade seal of the former dynasty that the saint wants today. If you find it, give it to them, the poor monk thought that the court just wanted treasures and jade seals, and would not hurt your father and the Luo family. ”

"Bingruo understands, but this matter is really clueless. The father-in-law told me that the imperial court only gave me two years, and I couldn't find what they wanted after two years, and my father and Luofu were afraid that it would be ......."

Guang Greed put down the wine bowl, stroked the gray strands of beard on his thin chin with one hand, and looked up at the moon. After looking at it for a while, he narrowed his small eyes, shook his head and sang: "Bamboo canes and mango shoes are lighter than horses, who is afraid! A cloud of smoke and rain is flattened, and the breeze wants to go east, why bother to open the net and stay ......?"

"I'll hand over the sunspot to Grandma Bai tomorrow, and then go to Yunzhou City to say goodbye to Daddy and Luo Feng Xia Xian, and then, I'll go with you......"

"Haha, that's good, that's good. “

Xia Xian rode his horse day and night, and when he came to Luojia Cemetery, it was already midnight. He already carried a red tassel gun with him, but he didn't want to be stopped by a single soldier at the entrance of the cemetery except for two cloth-clothed servants from Luofu sitting and dozing.

Xia Xian searched around in the huge cemetery, and finally saw Luo Feng, who was lying on a tombstone, holding a pot of osmanthus and brewing himself, dressed in filial piety clothes, and his expression was quiet.

"During the period of filial piety, do you still drink?you, tsk, I'll drink it for you!" Xia Xian stepped forward, grabbed the osmanthus brewing pot, sat down next to Luo Feng, and poured it with his head up.

When Luo Feng saw Xia Xian, he was startled at first, and then subconsciously looked far away in the direction Xia Xian came from, and then his eyes darkened in disappointment, and said, "You are alone?"

"What do you mean, who else do you think? I said Master Luo, why are you still like this, it's all this time, and you are still thinking about her? You were disappointed when I came alone?"

"Oh, no. Luo Feng retracted his gaze and smiled embarrassedly.

"Give it to me, you don't drink much, I don't have time to take care of you when you're drunk. Luo Feng took back the wine jug from Xia Xian's hand, and then filled the white jade ear cup with wine.

"I thought you were also under house arrest, what's the matter?

Luo Feng raised his neck and drank the cup of osmanthus brew, and smiled: "Under house arrest, who will go to find the baby?" I live in this cemetery now, and I can't go back to Luofu." Now in Luofu, not even a fly can fly in. ”

"You money obsessed, money is something outside the body, although your father and mother are gone, but the aunts in the family have loved you since childhood, the maid and the housekeeper, which one is not loyal to you?

Luo Feng sighed lightly and bowed his head silently.

Seeing him so silent, Xia Xian became even more annoyed, and said: "Don't you still want to keep a bunch of wives? Even if you are afraid that she will dislike you for having nothing, you should not ignore the lives of your Luofu family! And her father is also under house arrest in Xiaofu! The imperial court wants her to find the treasure and jade seal within two years, don't you know?"

Luo Feng raised a pair of starry eyes, his eyes were sad, and he sighed: "Xia Xian, you and I have known each other since childhood, why do you still not know me so well? How can I, Luo Feng, be a person who is reluctant to make money? It's just that I really don't know anything, everything is rumors in the rivers and lakes, rumors of death, now let me go to get what they want, two years, my term is also two years......"

"Didn't you say before that only your father and you know where the Luo family's treasures are hidden?

"That's just a sum of money hidden in the mausoleum, which has been handed over a few days ago, and it's not the treasure of King Xia Nan and the heirloom jade seal they wanted. I really don't know, my dad seemed to be telling me before leaving, but unfortunately, I didn't have time to ......."

Xia Xian reached out and patted Luo Feng's shoulder, comforting: "It's okay, with my brother here, everything will pass......"

In Xiao's mansion, Xiao Ling'er's boudoir is as fragrant as ever. The moonlight shines through the gap in the carved window and hits the open space of the room, which is correspondingly interesting with the faintly burning candle flame.

Xiao Ling'er sat in front of the dresser, staring at her charming face in the bronze mirror in a daze, her lips opened and closed slightly, and asked Xiao Fengnian, who was pacing back and forth in the room uneasy, "Fengnian, do you usually look in the mirror?"

Xiao Fengnian was preoccupied, and was inexplicably asked by her question, frowning perfunctorily: "No." ”

"You can take a picture and see if you can think of something. I've been shining for a long time, and it seems that I can see another person......"

Xiao Fengnian walked behind Xiao Ling'er, roughly swept Xiao Ling'er and himself in the bronze mirror, immediately glanced away, leaned over and said to Xiao Ling'er: "Ling'er, don't worry about these anymore, I have something important to tell you today." ”

Xiao Ling'er was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look at Xiao Fengnian's pair of serious phoenix eyes, and wondered, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Fengnian dragged a round stool from the side and sat beside Xiao Ling'er, and said, "I may have to go on a long trip recently, and my father has arranged important things, which is very important, so I have to go." What do you do? You don't know anyone here. ”

"It doesn't matter. Xiao Ling'er said lightly: "Actually, I don't know you either." ”

Xiao Fengnian laughed at himself and said, "Yes, even I don't know myself." ”

Xiao Ling'er smiled: "Except for Bingruo, I really don't think I know anyone, if it weren't for the fact that you have the same experience as me, I may not be close to you." By the way, Feng Nian, it's the Diao senior I met last time, but I really feel a little familiar, he won't be my father before, right?"

"How is it possible, I have already asked, his daughter died of illness three years ago in a place called Snow Fog Ice Field, how could you be her......"

Morningside walks in the north forest, and Xiao scatters an open placket. Diao Wu'an walked aimlessly in the col alone all night, and it was dawn, and he thought that it was time to go back.

"Helper, why didn't you come back overnight, but you wandered around here?" Bai Ming, dressed in a cyan robe, looked worried, trotted from afar, stopped in front of Diao Wu'an, gasped, raised his eyes and asked him, "Aren't you still thinking about Sister Ling'er?"

Diao Wu'an put one hand behind his back, put the other hand on Bai Ming's shoulder, and sighed: "Hey, come on, your sister Ling'er, you will never come back." ”

After speaking, he walked slowly to Dazhai with Bai Ming, along the way, the surrounding mountains gradually brightened, the breeze and the moon waned, and the cold was cool.

"Bai Ming, have the brothers who died and injured in the last hurricane been settled, as well as their families, they must be comforted. ”

"Don't worry, they have given a lot of silver, and they will have no worries for the rest of their lives. ”

Diao Wu'an smiled with satisfaction, patted Bai Ming's shoulder, and said, "You are a good boy, if your sister Ling'er is still here, I will definitely marry her to you." ”

Bai Ming lowered his head and smiled: "Sister Ling'er, how can she look down on me as a child, in fact, when she was a child, she also treated me as a little girl and didn't let go." ”

Diao Wu'an's usually bright copper bell eyes, every time he talks about Diao Ling'er, his eyes are full of mist. "It would be nice if the girl from Xiao Mansion was my bell last time. ”

"Helper, Bai Ming will always be with you, don't be sad. Bai Ming saw Diao Wu'an so sad, and his heart was also very uncomfortable, but he couldn't do anything, after all, people can't be resurrected after death.

"Helper, how did Sister Ling'er die of illness?Why did she go so far away?I can't believe that the Snow Fog Ice Plain and the border of the Great Cangguo are still separated by such a wide and turbulent sea of death......" Bai Ming lowered his eyes and shook his head slightly.

"I don't believe it either, but we can't go there, I originally planned to rob the house and save up the ship fare of the Sea of Death over the years, but such a large amount of money, we are afraid that we will not be able to save it for decades, after all, we can't rob other people's money......"

Hearing this, Bai Ming fell into deep thought.

Shaoqing, when he was about to reach the gate of Dazhai, he stopped, grabbed one of Diao Wuan's sleeves, his smart eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a smile.

"Helper, although we don't have money, the Luo family has money. ”

"Have you heard about it too? But according to our people, Luofu has already been raided, and the only savings of the Luo family were also searched by the imperial court from the Luofu mausoleum a few days ago, and the other Luofeng also knows nothing. ”

Bai Ming pondered for a while, and said firmly: "Helper, everyone in Dacang Country knows that the Luo family is rich, and he transports twenty-eight lines of silk and smuggling salt to the eighteen cities of Dacang ...... country."

Diao Wu'an narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly: "I'll leave this matter to you." ”

The white name promised, the two looked at each other and smiled, and continued to walk towards the cottage side by side......
