Chapter 13: Memories

"Old man, you must understand the meaning, I actually came to visit in the name of Nangong, and I never thought of using the identity of the owner of the Mandarin Duck Mansion to force you." Nangong Ziyue casually picked up the books on the bookshelf and flipped through them. "When I was young, I was in this room, and I was often held in my arms by the old man and taught me to write, and that month was my happiest and freest time."

Scenes from memories emerge one by one.

"Yue'er, come, the old man will teach you to write your name." Xuanyuan Legend hugged Nangong Ziyue, held Yue'er's hand tightly, and wrote the words Nangong Ziyue with a brush stroke by stroke.

"But I'm not allowed to call you grandpa, I even called you secretly, and you will only stare at me." Seeing that he still kept the notebook she had written when she was a child, his eyes softened.

"The Nangong family abandoned me, but you didn't abandon me, the master accepted me as an apprentice, in fact, you helped begging." Nangong Ziyue was half-kneeling, her head resting on the old man's lap, and the old man's hand stroked her hair, "Child, you have worked hard." ”

"Yue'er actually doesn't want to take back the Mandarin Duck Tower, but the master is missing, and you have been hiding it from me, deliberately letting Xuanyuan Hong force me to leave in the name of marrying me as my granddaughter-in-law." Saying that, Nangong Ziyue raised her head, "Do you know?" The only divination that I won't touch is that I know. ”

Xuanyuan Legend looked surprised, put his arm on her shoulder and asked her, "When did you learn it?" Do you know your master? ”

"The world is going to be chaotic, and this mandarin duck tower should also be taken back!" Nangong Ziyue got up and walked out of the window, and saw that the window was still open, so she removed the wooden support and closed the window door.

The nine floors of the Mandarin Duck Building are scattered in different places, the legend of the Mandarin Duck Tower is a building with nine floors of the attic, in fact, it is just a means to confuse the world, the real Mandarin Duck Tower, just nine books, each book is recorded in the top secret, such as martial arts cheats, such as the art of strange gossip and so on.

Nangong Ziyue once asked the master, "Master, there are obviously only a few broken books, and it is strange that they have to be named Mandarin Duck Tower." ”

Xiaoyaozi took the folding fan in his hand and knocked it towards Nangong Ziyue's head, "Little girl, what do you know?" ”

"Master, I don't understand, it's just that the mandarin ducks are all paired in pairs, and these nine books can't be made together. The little girl picked it up and pointed at the book.

"In your eyes, there are really people who are scrambling for these broken books." Xiaoyaozi looked arrogant.

"I don't believe it, then master, you have to tell me, why is it called Mandarin Duck Tower?" Nangong Ziyue shook Xiaoyaozi's arm and was coquettish.

Xiaoyaozi hugged Nangong Ziyue, this girl is eccentric, she does bring a lot of laughter, and her talent is not bad, and it is not bad to want to inherit the position of the landlord. "Originally, these books had their own names, but the ancestor thought that the names of the nine books circulated by the ancestors were troublesome, so he changed their names."

"Just the ancestor hanging on the wall?" The fleshy little finger pointed.

Seeing this, Xiaoyaozi didn't stop her, and silently pinched her little hand, "Master Zu traveled to the lake for a day, and saw the waterfowl in the lake playing in pairs, and remembered what he felt when he read before: the trees are green, and the clear pond is flowing for a long time. There are lonely mandarin ducks, wailing and begging for matches. After going back, it was renamed Mandarin Duck Tower, which was passed down from ancestor to ancestor and reached the current ninth floor. The girl, the ninth floor, can't learn, let alone touch. After saying that, he put away the book on the ninth floor.

Later, when she was young, she followed her master to many places, and saw that every time the master went to a place, she took out a book and handed it to others. She clearly remembered, "When the ninth floor is retracted, it is the time of chaos in the world." Remember, don't look for it until you have to, and don't take it back. ”

Boom, scorching heat and moon, this rain is coming.

Nangong Ziyue looked at the legendary Xuanyuan Legend, helpless, this old man was really stubborn to her like a cow, "If you don't let me touch it, I have to touch it, no, with my qualifications, it's not easy to learn." That's why you calculated that I was going to do your granddaughter-in-law's business, and I was going to break in. ”

"Okay, I'll give it to you." It was as if a big decision had been made, "Girl, this is always your home." Xuanyuan Legend opened the button on the desk, and the bookshelves in the gatehouse were separated on both sides. A small box on the wall, holding the key to open the lock over there. "You also know that the Mandarin Duck Towers are distributed in different places, and I only have one here."

Hand it to Nangong Ziyue. Picked up a ring that had been treasured in the box for a long time, "This is also you, the old man and your master have been friends for many years, and the old man expected this day." It's just too fast. ”

"Although the Mandarin Duck Building is said to be indisputable to the world, everyone else has arrived at the door, and I don't even know who the other party is, doesn't it live up to your expectations?"

Xuanyuan Legend picked up the envelope and handed it to Nangong Ziyue, "Another piece of news you want." "Sitting on the chair, as if they are a lot old, they can't protect them after all, and they will see their own creation in the future.

Nangong Ziyue opened the envelope and looked at the contents in her heart. The expression was a little dark, "Hidden family? That's a big appetite. ”

Pick up the letter and light it towards the candle. "I said girl, can you change the place to burn, you didn't see, this is the study, my lifelong collection." Xuanyuan stomped his feet in a hurry.

"Just your collection of books? I don't like it. Looking down, he saw that the paper was being swallowed up by fire little by little, "You really don't plan to tell Xuanyuan Hong these things?" ”

"Why are you mentioning that stinky boy, Lao Tzu doesn't have that uncompetitive grandson." It's like a fried cat, with teeth and claws.

"Be angry, be careful of your body, be careful that you can't hold your great-grandson." Pick up the teapot on the stove and refill the tea.

"Since you choose to escape from Tongzhou, then you are more hidden, and you don't hear anything outside the window, I hope that the old man will live a little longer. The Xuanyuan family doesn't need too much brilliance, Xuanyuan Hong, just follow me, as for the affairs of the hidden family, I will deal with it, and inform me that the first floor has been taken back by the Mandarin Duck Tower. If you want it, come to me. ”

"Girl, you...."

After Nangong Ziyue finished speaking, she pushed open the door and left, leaving only one sentence: "Old man, the master said that it is not easy to have a confidant in life, you have to live a long time and wait for him." It's getting late, it's time for you to rest. ”

When she went out, Bell hurriedly took her shawl and draped it over Nangong Ziyue, and when she saw her deep face, she didn't ask too much.

"Little bell, did you say that kid Xuanyuan Hong, is it a big trouble?"

Bell listened and was stunned, "Miss, I don't know"

"Let's go, go to the ancestral hall, that kid has a high spirit." As he spoke, he turned a corner and walked towards the ancestral hall.

It is said that Xuanyuan Hong knelt from the pavilion and boiled the ancestral hall, so far the rules and regulations are upright kneeling, seeing that the ancestral hall is not educated, so he began to steal and play tricks, this ancestral hall does not know how to kneel many times, inside and out, and the cracks are all clear.

Sitting on the futon and napping, he vaguely heard the sound of footsteps, hit a spirit, and knelt facing the ancestors of the ancestral hall.

The bell gently pushed the door open, and the dim candlelight of the ancestral hall swayed from side to side as the door opened. Seeing him kneeling upright, with a sneer, this kid will still pretend. "Childe, get up, Miss will let you go back and rest."

Xuanyuan Hong turned his head and saw Nangong Ziyue in the courtyard with his back to him, his head raised slightly, looking at the sky, not knowing what he was looking at.

After speaking, the bell followed Nangong Ziyue back to listen to Yuyuan.

Xuanyuan Hong staggered to his feet, patted his body, and said to his ancestors, "Ancestors bless, my descendants will come to nag you next time." ”

Yangshan Cottage, in a secluded wing room, the red decoration in the house has not yet had time to be demolished.

He had a fair complexion, a touch of handsomeness in his facial features, and under the shroud of the moonlight, his body seemed to have a divine light, and he sat aside, but on the contrary, he saw the woman, vulgar, stepping on the stool, holding a dagger in his hand, only to see that the dagger was sharp and flashed with a terrifying cold light. The man didn't care, and let the woman play with the dagger.

"Young Master Mo, you have nothing to say, this is recognition." Meng Ruyan's small mouth didn't wait for Yunmo's reaction, and hurriedly occupied the bed, "In that case, I'll sleep in the bed, and you can watch the rest of the place." ”

"Madame, can you really bear it? In this case, then when you go down the mountain tomorrow, don't blame your husband for not taking you. Yunmo understated it.

Listening to his words, the dream was like a smoke carp straightened, sat up straight, what did he say just now? Tomorrow the mountain will go down. Then how can he only let him go alone, and if he wants to go, he has to go together.

Ran in front of him in three and two steps, "What did you just say?" Down. Meng Ruyan pulled up his sleeve and pulled it tightly, Yunmo frowned, this woman didn't have the demeanor of a lady at all, rude.

Seeing the dissatisfaction on his face, he quickly let go of his hand, and flattered him with a smile: "Husband, we are just newly married, how can you bear to let me separate the two places from you, I don't care, where you go, I will go?" "A shy, coquettish tone,

Listening to Yunmo's goosebumps, seeing that he didn't react, he glanced at the inseparable bed, pouted, and looked reluctant, she didn't want to live a different life in this cottage, that day an old bald donkey let her experience a different life, she was really fed up. "My husband is weak, if he gets sick, it's a crime, the bed is soft, the bed will let you sleep, I'll find a place to sleep at random,"

"Are you really willing to do it?"

"Reluctant, how can there be reluctance, besides, the husband's body is more important." Saying that, he stretched out his hand to support Yunmo's arm, Yunmo did not reject, but it was strange in his heart, usually when women were close to him, he would be disgusted in his heart, and he specially found all kinds of women to overcome his problems, and he wanted to endure the discomfort, but the disgust did not come out, and he glanced at the dream thoughtfully.

Dream Ruyan turned around and lay on the low couch, covered with a thin quilt, fortunately, the hot weather, the night is not too cold. Thinking about it, I fell asleep quietly.

Listening to the sound of breathing, Yunmo thought to himself, this woman is also big-hearted, not afraid that I will really do something?

I originally wanted to ask her how she saw the hidden secret guard during the day, the secret guard was trained by him personally, Yu Qing's hidden kung fu is first-class, it is not easy for ordinary people to find out, but he just deliberately pinched her wrist, and there is no internal strength at all, which is strange. Maybe she used some method to hide it, so he couldn't detect it.

I didn't know how to let her go down the mountain with him, so it was okay, she took the initiative to speak, it was not difficult, stay by her side and put it in front of her, one day her little tail will leak out.

Suddenly thought for a while, and remembered what Li Si said to him, "The thrush girl is not from our village, seeing that she looks ugly, her life experience is really pitiful, take her back to the village, since she has fallen in love with Gongzi, she also hopes for Gongzi Haihan." With the posture of the son, it is indeed aggrieved, the master said at that time, if you meet an ugly girl, let her go to the village, I also thought about it, since the son will go down the mountain tomorrow, please also ask the son to agree with me one or two. ”

At that time, he thought to himself, after going down the mountain, let people confiscate the stockade, listening to Li Si's words, he knew that he had more doubts, only to see Li Si continue, "I still hope that Gongzi, in early September next year, I will take the thrush girl back to the village." The master told him that if he brought the ugly girl into the village, he must return to the village on the first day of September of the second year. Please keep the agreement and don't tell the thrush girl. This is a token, and it will not be sent tomorrow, remember. After saying that, he stuffed the token in his hand into his hand and left.

Yunmo picked up the token that Li Si gave him, a small bamboo knot, a small pendant hanging, and a flower painted on the bamboo knot, as for what kind of flower, it was too small to be easy to tell. This village is hidden everywhere, the villagers are simple, hidden outside Tongzhou, but it is strange everywhere. One day, I'll figure it out.
