Chapter 498: Talking

As soon as these words came out, the beggars and children sitting on the ground nearby all looked over.

I have seen the businessmen who were deceived by the hemp face and finally scolded and scolded, threw down the copper plate and threw away their sleeves, but like this one, he took the initiative to find him and said that he wanted to visit the city was the first to see it.

The children who were begging with bowls on the side of the road looked at these two girls who were completely different from them, so beautiful, white and beautiful, that people couldn't help but retreat at a glance, for fear of soiling the corners of the nobles' clothes.

At this glance, it is not a local child, but a businessman from other places, and looking at the more than ten tall and mighty guards behind them, they should not be ordinary people.

At such a glance, it is not an ordinary person, but he actually wants to take the city with a numb face.

Rao is pockmarked face who finally opened a business couldn't help but shrink his body, his eyes glanced at the more than ten guards behind the girl, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva: "This ...... I don't know which lady, you ......"

The dozen or so guards looked at him and he was terrified.

A silver ingot appeared in the field of vision, and the girl who opened her mouth to ask for a tour of the city said casually: "Do you want to?" ”

Ma's eyes were immediately attracted by the silver ingot, and he couldn't move away from it just by looking at it.

Belch...... Although it was scared, it was more than a silver ingot...... He swallowed his spit, grabbed the silver ingot and stuffed it into his sleeve: "Okay! ”

A visit to the city is a trip to the city!

"Help me look at the pot." Ma Face, who gritted his teeth and took over the business, pushed the pot to the side of the vendor, thinking that he had met Su Rili and had a good relationship.

The vendor was a seller of medicinal herbs, and he put a small half bag of medicinal herbs in front of him, and when he heard this, he raised his chin and said, "Remember to give money when you come back." As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at the sleeve pocket of the pockmarked face, but he saw with his own eyes that the pockmarked face had taken the silver ingot.

"It's done." Only then did he get a silver ingot, and even if he responded, this silver ingot saved a little flower, which was enough for him to live for more than a month.

What a nobleman! It is...... Well, those dozen or so guards look weird and scary.

But nobles, they always make such a fuss, just travel around the city, and these guards won't make a move.

……

"Our Shanxi Road has been a fortress of several states since ancient times, and it is a treasure ...... China"

Qiao Ran glanced at the people on the side of the street with withered faces and hummed casually.

This pockmarked face said that these things about Shanxi Road are all in the chronicles, and they are much more detailed than he said, but let's just say it, she is very patient.

Follow Ma Mian all the way to the door, listening to Ma Mian's stumbling back to the content of the Gazetteer, Pei Qingqing reached out to cover her lips and yawned.

Everywhere is the color of the withered yellow of the mountain rocks, I don't know if it is because the grass and trees wither in winter and there is no bright green relationship, such a withered yellow looks at it for a long time, it really makes people drowsy.

Pei Qingqing looked down at her feet, hung her head and followed Qiao Ran to listen to the numb face twisting in her ears and carrying the ground features.

I was thinking about coming out of the hotel, but after coming out for a while, I felt bored.

Why are people so strange?

However, she was obviously not the only one who felt bored, Pei Qingqingfu looked up at Qiao Ran, who was taller than her: Miss Qiao listened really seriously, as if she had never heard of it.

But she knows that Miss Qiao can never forget it, and she has already memorized the things on the Gazetteer, so what's the point of listening to Ma Yan reciting it like this?

The voice of this numb face is not good.

Thinking like this, Pei Qingqing looked back at the more than ten guards who followed them, and several of them were also hiding their lips and yawning, obviously unable to listen to it.

Just walked all the way out of the city.

Ma Yan stopped, obviously with no intention of going far.

The walls are quite tall, but they are a little different from the walls of ordinary castles, and there are some boxy holes like windows at the head of the walls, but these square holes are blocked with special masonry.

This is not like the city wall, but more like the fortress painted in the book "The Chronicles of the Scenery of Great Chu", which is close to the frontier city that is close to the Xiongnu.

This is not surprising, because this is not a city, but a new city that was built after the Great Chu Dynasty. In the past, there was at most a post house for passing merchants to stop, and the people around it also lived on the nearby hills.

However, although it was a city that was built after the Great Chu Dynasty, it was not much different from other cities in essence. Like the big cities of Jinling and Chang'an, above the city wall is a square white background, and the name of the city is written on the white background. The three vermilion characters on Shanxi Road are like knives, calm but domineering.

It's not a seal, which obviously shows that it is not an identity that has existed since ancient times.

The numb face that had been stumbling all the way finally became excited, pointed to the red characters on the white background, and said excitedly: "This is written by Emperor Taizong himself, the only one exists......"

This Shanxi Road is also special.

Qiao Ran nodded, glanced at him calmly, and then said, "I know all this." ”

After a pause, as if afraid that he wouldn't understand, the girl spoke again: "There is nothing you said along the way that I don't know." ”

Ma Yan's face stiffened when he heard this, and the excitement he had just mentioned suddenly stopped, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth dryly, and then spread his hands and said, "Since you know everything, what are you looking for me to do?" ”

"Tell you something you don't know." The girl pursed her lips and smiled.

This is an extremely beautiful girl who was born, standing in the middle of this withered world of mountains and trees, there is a kind of beauty that is very different from this world.

It's even more beautiful when you laugh, and it's a little dazzling.

The numb face was also stunned for a moment, but then his face became ugly.

Because the beautiful girl suddenly raised her hand, more than a dozen guards behind her came over her, and after a few seemingly casual steps, they surrounded him.

Even if he is not smart, he is not a fool, what do these more than a dozen tall and mighty guards want to do? It's not going to be a good thing!

Besides, he didn't look like a handsome gentleman, and he still knows what kind of virtue he has, is that girl still ready to let his subordinates surround him and want to rob him back to be a gentleman?

That's too much to bury himself, and he's not born like that person.

That's not a good thing.

"You...... What do you want to know? Ma Yan looked at the dozen or so guards surrounding him, and he was drenched in cold sweat.

I originally thought that I was safe enough to generate this virtue, but I didn't expect that I still got hit, which is really ...... Romance

The girl smiled, and the smile was beautiful.

But Ma Face has long lost the interest in appreciation, no wonder ordinary people say that femme fatales, the more beautiful life is, the more terrible it is.

"Tell me where that thing in your sleeve pocket came from." The girl in front of her said calmly.

In the sleeve pocket? Ma Mian instinctively hugged his arm, and said hurriedly: "Noble, do you still want to go back with that money?" That's a good thing to say...... Ah! ”

After a tragic cry of pain, Ma Yan looked at the hand he held in one of his small hands and was dumbfounded. Looking at the girl who pinched him with one hand, he was stunned. I tried to struggle hard, but I didn't move, the strength was great, no matter how he struggled, he didn't move, but she still looked relaxed.

Where did this little kid come from? What is the force, this is ...... It's a little monster!

He watched blankly as the little man who grabbed his hand touched his sleeve pocket, and then took out a bronze waist card and handed it to the "femme fatale" on the side.

"Officials." The little monster read the words on the waist card and tilted his head, but it actually looked quite cute.

Monsters are really demagoguery, don't look at the pockmarked face: no matter how cute it is, it's terrifying.

"Where did you get this waist card?" The big one asked again.

Ma Mian subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and when his eyes touched the more than ten guards who surrounded Dao, he said, "Picked it up." ”

The girl looked at him, turned to the strongest-looking one of them, and said, "Break his leg." ”

This sentence immediately made Ma Yan's soul frightened, and even when he said loudly: "No...... No, it's impossible to pick it up, someone gave it to me! ”

Qiao Ran sneered, and after collecting the waist card, she looked at him with her arms crossed and said, "Then what did you say someone gave it to you?" ”

Ma face said: "A female ......"

"Break his leg."

"No, it's not a woman, it's a man!" The numb face was dripping with cold sweat, and he looked at the girl in front of him in horror.

The little monster is as powerful as a cow, and the big one will break people's legs if they don't agree with each other: this girl outside is really terrifying, especially the beautiful one, the more beautiful it is, the more terrible it is.

"It's a man!" The pockmarked face exclaimed, "Noble, I said, I just said it." The man was born quite good-looking, but the eyes were good-looking, the eyebrows were good-looking, the nose was good-looking, and the mouth was good-looking, and at first glance he was different from us, he ......"

With a pain in his feet, his numb face knelt on one knee with a "poof", he looked at the little monster who stretched out his feet and kicked him with a bitter face, and saw the little monster raising his little head, holding his arms, and shouting: "A sentence is good-looking, don't talk nonsense." ”

With so many beautiful sentences on this pockmarked face, plus the waist card of the ministry, she had already guessed which one it was.

It's the person Zhang Xie doesn't really want to see.

"What about people?" Qiao Ran asked.

Ma Yan shook his head and said busily: "I don't know ......"

Seeing that the girl turned his head, he was startled, and there was originally a straight knee that was frightened, and he became a kneeling on both knees, but he couldn't care about the posture or anything, he hurriedly said loudly: "It's true, nobleman, you listen to me!" ”

"That good-looking man came to look for me three days ago, the person was inexplicable, and after asking me a bunch of strange words, he gave me this waist card, oh, by the way, that trick was also given to me by him, so that I came to the city to perform tricks these days." Ma Face's face turned pale with fright, and he confessed all his words, "I thought he had something wrong with his head, but he gave me money, and I did it." ”

After saying this, he stopped and looked at the girl.

The girl tilted her head and rubbed her neck, looked at him and said, "You go on." ”

"That's all, oh, by the way, he also asked me to hide my belt badge in my sleeve pocket, and I chose the intersection of the square, and I didn't know what he was going to do, but when I gave me money, I did it. You know, noble, that our place is ...... Business is not good, since he gave money, how can I not be justified? The numb face said urgently.

The girl didn't answer him immediately, but lowered her eyes and was silent for a while before looking up at him again: "What strange thing did he ask you?" ”

The numb face was stunned for a moment, and then saw the girl rubbing her neck again and tilting her head: "Interrupt ......"

"Ouch, I said I said!" The hemp face was frightened, how dare he sell anything else, and said: "I didn't ask anything, I just asked if there were two men in their forties some time ago, one was tall and mighty, and the other was born with an elegant face, and I asked me to take you to the city, and those two men also brought a few guards or something......"

"I only have one business trip in the past ten days and a half months, how can I not remember?" The numb face was scared and wiped the sweat, on such a cold day, I was scared out of a cold sweat by the two big and small ones in front of me.

"At that time, it was still snowing, far from the sunny days of these days, the two men were fierce, the other was gentle, the fierce one looked uneasy to mess with, the gentle and elegant one looked a little thin, like a literati master somewhere, while traveling around the city and asking questions, talking more than me."

Qiao Ran's eyes flashed: one fierce, the other gentle, and it was still snowing, plus a few guards. If she didn't guess wrong, the people who took the city with this pockmarked face that day should be the assassinated General Gu and Lord Zhao.

"Those two were weird, from dawn until dark, and let me take them around the city all the time." He wiped his sweat and said, "I don't know anything else." ”

Qiao Ran said, "What did they ask?" ”

The corners of the numb face's mouth twitched: "How can you remember this?" The talkative literati man talked with a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west, inexplicably, so naturally he had something to say. ”

Qiao Ran sighed, didn't continue to ask, only squinted at him.

This girl who broke someone's leg if she didn't agree with her was really beautiful, especially those eyes, peach blossoms, obviously staring at it with such a pair of beautiful eyes is a trembling thing, and he did tremble, but he was scared.

Ma Mian shrank his head, looked at her and said, "This nobleman, you ...... What do you look at me? ”

The girl raised her eyebrows and smiled, and suddenly said, "By the way, I haven't said my name yet, my surname is Qiao." ”

Last name Joe? The numb face's face changed suddenly.

The next moment, I heard the girl speak again: "Did the man who gave you the waist card ask you to bring me a message?" ”

The numb-faced lips trembled, and he trembled and stretched out his hand to point at her with a look of disbelief.

"You...... Your last name is Joe? ”

The girl smiled and nodded, with a determined look: "Did he let you bring me a message?" ”

The moment it was confirmed that it was her, the numb face only felt a bang, as if something had exploded in his brain.

If it's really a man's words, a deceitful ghost, even a man doesn't dare to believe a man's words.

This is the "gentle and beautiful" Miss Qiao mentioned in the man's mouth?

Is this called gentleness and beauty? The beauty of a literati who breaks people's legs without saying a word?

That man was carried away by beauty, and he couldn't be saved!
