Huo Shudie rubbed his wrist that was being dragged and hurt, and shouted with a crying voice: "Brother, why are you afraid of him, isn't there just a few stinky money!

"Hey. Huo Zhiyuan shook his head and sighed, and gently patted Huo Shudie's head, "Fluttershy, you're still young." Some things can't just be taken at face value. I have a feeling that that Long Lian is not simple, and he would rather offend Wen Xun than win the highest price tonight, I'm afraid there is another reason. That's 10,000 taels of gold, do you think it's 10,000 taels of stones?"

Hearing her brother say this, Huo Shudie slowly quieted down, she bit her lip and thought for a long time before she asked with some uncertainty: "What does my brother mean, that Long Lian may know the Oiran in the painting tonight?"

Huo Zhiyuan nodded, "It's possible, but it's also possible that he approached the Oiran because he was trying to deal with Ziqingke." There are more people who have seen it for my brother than you, and I can feel that Long Pian is by no means a small person. You girl, don't be so impulsive in the future. ”

"That'...... If that's the case, Die'er will come to the door to compensate him. He is a manly man, so he won't have to deal with me as a little woman. Huo Shudie rubbed the corners of her clothes with her hands and said with some embarrassment.

"Hmph, you little girl, it's good to cause less trouble, I still expect you to apologize. Let's go, follow me home!" Huo Zhiyuan reluctantly patted Huo Shudie's head and pulled her towards the Auxiliary General's Mansion.

In the theater, after seeing the Huo family brothers and sisters leave, the painting Allure sighed unconsciously.

"What's wrong, why are you sighing?" asked Cang Wunian softly.

"I'm worried about Qing Ci's ......," Hua Chengcheng whispered.

"You've known him for so long, and you don't even have that confidence in him?" Cang Wunian chuckled.

"Brother Wunian, why are you still smiling? That Wen Xun will obviously be unfavorable to us. When the time comes, we will be besieged by officers and soldiers, will we fight or not?" said Hua Chengcheng helplessly.

"If you can beat it, you can fight, and if you can't beat it, you will run. Cang Wunian replied leisurely.

"We ran away, what about my aunt? Besides, we haven't found Luo Fan yet. "Painting Allure really can't understand where the confidence of the old god Cang Wunian comes from.

"Painting, do you know what it means to 'care is chaotic'? Don't worry, there may be a good show next. Cang Wunian said, but he picked up the wine glass on the table with a smile and drank it by himself.

Hua Chengcheng just stared at him with resentment, weighing in her heart what the two men had seen that she couldn't see.

Qing Ci left his seat and went straight to the shopkeeper on the stage.

"Young Master Long!" Seeing Qing Ci coming, the shopkeeper's face raised his hand respectfully.

"The shopkeeper is polite. Qing Ci arched his hand, "This 10,000 taels of gold dragon was already prepared when he came, and the shopkeeper had to send someone to go to the door of the inn with Long to pick it up." ”

"Long Gongzi has a heart, so he asked his men to go with Gongzi. The shopkeeper said.

Soon, more than a dozen guys followed Qing Ci to the outside of the inn, and the gorgeous sedan he had ridden earlier was still parked outside.

Qing Ci pointed to a carriage following the sedan and said, "The money is all there, please carry them in." ”

One of the men who took the lead walked to the side of the carriage, raised his hand and lifted the curtain in front of the carriage door, and sure enough, he saw a cart full of small boxes piled up inside.

The guy glanced at the person behind him, and the two stepped forward to move a box out of the car, and when they opened it, they saw that it was full of golden ingots.

It took about half an hour, under the supervision of Qing Ci and the shopkeeper, a group of guys hummed and moved all the gold in the car into the underground warehouse of Tianxi Village.

"This money, Long has already paid it off, I don't know ...... this person" Qing Ci chuckled at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper respectfully hugged his fists, "This person naturally belongs to Long Gongzi tonight, Gongzi come with me." ”

"Wait. Qing Ci stopped the shopkeeper who turned around and wanted to leave, and asked, "I still have two companions, I wonder if it is convenient to go together?"

"Of course, as long as the rules of Tianxi Village are not broken, and Childe wants to bring a few people in, it is all Childe's private matter. The shopkeeper seemed to have something to say.

Qing Ci secretly rolled his eyes, feeling that the shopkeeper regarded him and Cang Wunian as hungry ghosts, or did he think that he had any special habits for men and women?

The white eyes returned to the white eyes, but on the surface, Qing Ci still smiled politely, quickly returned to the theater, and called out Cang Wunian and Hua Chengcheng.

I thought that the shopkeeper would take him to a quiet pavilion in Tianxi Village, but it turned out that the three of Qingci, under the leadership of the shopkeeper, left the inn through a remote and inconspicuous small door.

After a long and winding walk along a dark but relatively flat path, a calm lake with sparkling waves flickering under the lights of the lake appeared in front of several people, and in the middle of the lake was a very ornate-looking painting boat, from which the lights of the painting boat were reflected.

"Is this ......," Qing Ci asked, raising an eyebrow.

The shopkeeper smiled, stretched out his finger and pointed to the distance, and said, "The Oiran in the painting is in the painting boat in the center of the lake at this time. ”

"There is a distance of more than ten zhang from here to the painting boat in the middle of the lake, and there is not even a small wooden boat by the lake, could it be that the shopkeeper wants Long to put on his wings and fly over?" asked the shopkeeper with a slanted eye.

The shopkeeper spread his hands apologetically, "Please forgive Master Long." The contemptible people are just eating in this Tianxi Village, and they only blame Long Gongzi for offending people who shouldn't be offended tonight. If the contemptible person opens the door to the son, I am afraid that the future will not be easy. I've already brought you to the place, and as for how you get there, it depends on Childe's own ability. ”

After that, the shopkeeper actually jumped in shape, and left the sight of the three of them with light skills.

"Yo, this shopkeeper is good, and he's still a martial arts master. Looking at the direction of the shopkeeper's disappearance, Qing Ci nodded appreciatively and praised.

"There doesn't seem to be an ambush around here. Cang Wunian said with doubts in his eyes.

"Maybe the ambush is in the middle of the painting boat?"

"The soldiers are coming to block the water and cover the earth, and they are all coming, is it possible to go back now?" said Qing Ci with his hands spread.

"It's naturally impossible to go back, it's just that we haven't found where Luo Fan's predecessors are, if we rescue my aunt for a while, what if that national teacher knows about it, what if it's not good for Luo Fan's seniors?"

"The mountain people have their own clever plans, Miss Allure doesn't need to worry a lot, the most important thing at the moment is to go to the painting boat to take a look first, if Aunt Hui is not there, I'm afraid we really have to think about what to do next." Qing Ci smiled slyly.

With that, he jumped directly to the surface of the lake, tapping his toes on the water, and quickly headed towards the painting boat in the center of the lake.

"Let's keep up. Cang Wunian said, took the hand of the painting Allure and jumped directly to the lake to tread the water like a green speech.

Within a moment, the three of them were on top of the painting boat one after the other.

The three of them landed on the bow of the boat, and they couldn't help but be amazed by the gorgeous painting boat that caught their eyes.

This is a two-storey painted boat with vermilion and bright yellow as the main colors, and the top layer looks like a delicate four-cornered pavilion with eaves and corners, and the top of the pavilion is blue-gray tiles. However, when the two floors are looked at together, it looks like a small palace has been built on a ship. It's just that one side of the palace is a door and three sides are walls, but the left and right sides of the whole painting boat are full of vermilion lacquered windows with cross begonia latticework, and the windows are inlaid with bright tiles as thin as cicada wings and brilliant lights.

On the bow of the boat where the three of them are surrounded by beauties on three sides, and looking along the beauties, it is a moon cave door that pays equal attention to decoration and practicality, and a row of red lanterns are hung on the top of the door beam, which gives people a faint sense of weirdness in this quiet and dark night.

"There doesn't seem to be anyone in this painting boat?" Looking at the bright yellow gauze curtain gently fluttering in the door of the Moon Cave, Cang Wunian couldn't help frowning.

"There seems to be no one on this floor, could it be on the upper layer?" Qing Ci was also very cautious.

"Let's go, go in and see. "It's already on this painting boat, and the painting has left all the previous worries behind.

The three of them walked into the first cabin, and sure enough, they found that it was empty, except for tables, chairs, benches, flickering candles, and bright yellow curtains swaying in the wind, there was not even a ghost.

"Go upstairs and have a look. Qing Ci said in a deep voice.

The three of them stepped lightly onto the scarlet staircase without making a sound.

Walking up to the second floor, the first thing that catches your eye is a small pavilion, with four dragon pillars painted with red paint, also hanging with bright yellow veils.

Turning to look behind the gazebo, he found that this pavilion was obviously not as bright as the downstairs. It's still the moon cave door with the vermilion door, but the light inside is very dim, and it doesn't seem to be lit.

The three of them glanced at each other and walked towards the pavilion.

A cold wind blew in through the open window, and the veil in the room floated up, almost slapping the three men in the face. Qing Ci waved his robe lightly, and a few night pearls flew to the four corners of the pavilion.

The place where they came into view was still empty, only a mahogany screen with the picture of the Spring Palace as the core stood in front of them.

Hurriedly bypassing the screen, there was another moon cave door, but this time there was something different inside the door—a large carved bed shrouded in pale red tulle.

The tulle was as clear as nothing, and the three of them clearly saw a woman lying on the bed.

"Auntie!" the painting Allure was overjoyed, and immediately flashed forward and lifted the veil.

Qing Ci and Cang Wunian frowned, and before they could say anything to stop them, the painting had already rushed to the bedside.
