The world is unpredictable
If it is said that the victory of contemporary Changzhou is largely due to the famous Yong'an Street, which almost spans half of Jingxi, the end is full of traffic, tourists are weaving, and business travel is endless. Located in the center of this street, the Agarwood Courtyard is the largest Fengyue place in the south of the Yangtze River, and its construction cost is huge, and the number of guests is enough to compare with the four famous buildings Tengwang Pavilion, Yueyang Tower, Yellow Crane Tower, and Yuejiang Tower. At a time when the war is raging, the Qing soldiers are just around the corner to break through the capital, but the Agarwood Courtyard is singing and dancing every night, and countless heroes and princes and grandsons are happy to be drunk and dream of death in this gentle township with soft words.
During the Ming Longqing period, there was a generation of famous Mu Qingyan here. This woman's life experience is extremely secret and bizarre, she and Princess Yongan of the current dynasty were twin sisters, both the daughter of Empress Xiaoding, that is, the sister of Emperor Wanli, but when she was born, she was sent to the rivers and lakes because of a conspiracy to gain power, and fell into the dust. Mu Qingyan is still young, but he is very sophisticated and knows how to stabilize his position with beauty. Whenever he had a glass of wine with all the guests, he had to pay enough price, and he did not refuse to come, and soon became the pillar of the Agarwood Temple. But she sings every night, just to make a scene, so as to obtain a lot of hidden information in the rivers and lakes. However, even such a smart woman, after all, could not escape the fate of being at the mercy of others, by mistake, entered the palace and took the name of Princess Yong'an, who was secretly sent to the Jurchen, and it was precisely because of this relationship that later generations named this street "Yong'an Street". The identities of these two women are difficult to determine, so there is no record in history.
Needless to say, Yong'an Street is lively, and the jade shops alone are lined up one after another. At that time, Li Yijie and Nangong Xue did not remove the silk and satin after falling on Wudang Mountain, Jiang Yanchen and Chu Menglin's clothes and accessories were also extremely gorgeous, and the owner of the jade shop also said that this is the big customer, and he couldn't wait to put the smile of the whole family on his face, gushing endlessly, and introduced attentively: "Look at these, guest officer!" They are all unearthed in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period; These jade cups, buckles, and plates are things from the Sui and Tang dynasties, and it is said that this hosta was given to Empress Xiao by Emperor Yang of Sui; These jade carvings based on cranes and dragons and phoenixes are precious cultural relics that reflect the social trend of thought in the Song Dynasty! As for this ......"
Chu Menglin was impatient, waved her hand and said, "Can there be a small form of red jade?" The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, although our shop is small, it is also complete, and the guest officer has everything he wants, so you are satisfied!" With that, he hurriedly turned into the inner room. Chu Menglin sighed: "Well, it's a shame that he didn't talk about the three emperors and five emperors, otherwise I'm afraid that it will take another seven days and seven nights, and it will be endless." ”
After a while, the shopkeeper had already walked out with another box of jade, and when he looked at it, the box was full of jade glowing with red light, as if forming a rainbow-like film, which was very beautiful. The shopkeeper rolled up his sleeves, and was waiting to continue the mouth of the river, spitting everywhere, Chu Menglin hurriedly said: "Stop, we will see it with our own eyes." Hey, this sparrow is not small, but there are so many, and I don't know which one is the soul-breaking tear! ”
The shopkeeper was an idle man, and it was as if he were going to die if he was to be silent. Hearing his words at this moment, he suddenly lifted his spirits and asked enthusiastically: "What the girl said is the soul breaking tears?" Chu Meng Linqi said: "Exactly, do you know?" The shopkeeper smiled and said, "If the girl is looking for the treasure of today's martial arts, if I knew, would I still keep this jade shop running on a small basis?" Chu Menglin thought that what he said was indeed reasonable, but he had such leisure to entertain himself, gave him a blank look, and said unhappily: "Then shut your mouth!" ”
The shopkeeper smiled, "I don't know about the treasures. But the soul-breaking tears I am talking about, that is a song sung by Miss Yun recently, which is much more valuable than Jinshan Yinshan. Chu Menglin said: "How come I have never heard of any rhyme girl." Yes, if you fall in love with her, then there is Xi Shi in the eyes of the lover, what is so strange? ”
The shopkeeper smiled: "That's true, but the girl can go to the street to inquire, who in Jingxi doesn't admire her very much?" Miss Yun only entered the Agarwood Courtyard not long ago, it is said that she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and those who have heard her sing songs, no one will pay attention to the vulgar fans next to her. We all say like this, 'You can't eat if you're hungry, you can't drink if your mouth is dry, and you have to listen to the song of the girl Weiyun every day', how many rich children are willing to spend a lot of money for her, and the limelight is comparable to Mu Qingyan, the flower of the year. ”
Li Yijie is very curious, he wants to speak clearly, but he doesn't want to be called lustful. After thinking about it for a moment, he made up his mind and said: "The girls in the Agarwood Courtyard must be very fond of dressing up, and the Broken Soul Tears are also very suitable as ornaments, so let's try our luck." Moreover, since there are many martial arts heroes gathered there, the worst should be able to find out some news. ”
Chu Menglin said with a smile: "Ah, there are so many taboos for famous and decent disciples, but if you want to see the girl, you have to be dignified." Xue'er, let's go in and take a look generously, the children of the rivers and lakes should be informal, and if others go, can't we go? ”
Nangong Xue was terrified, she grew up in the Huashan faction since she was a child, and the door rules were extremely strict, and it was needless to say that she had never been to those Fengyue places, and she didn't dare to mention it on weekdays. But because of this, she added to her curiosity, and at the same time, she and Chu Menglin had a great sense of seeing each other and hating each other, not only admiring her casual and free-spirited, but also envious of her being able to do what she didn't dare to do, so she immediately turned her heart sideways and said, "It's okay, I just want to see where this Yun girl is sacred!" He glanced at Li Yijie and pulled Chu Menglin. I could only hear the shopkeeper behind him cursing loudly. Thinking that he had spent so much effort in vain, Li Yijie couldn't help but laugh.
When I first stepped into the agarwood courtyard, a thick smell of fat powder came to my face. A few girls on the stage wore heavy makeup, their breasts were slightly exposed, and they were dancing happily, only wearing a light veil as light as mist. Each hand holds a handkerchief with incense, and the dance posture is extremely charming and delicate. Li Yijie only looked dizzy, and couldn't help but cheer: "Okay! ”
This compliment caused his three companions to be disdainful, and a big man said coldly: "So it's okay? Compared to the tunes sung by Miss Yun, this dance is only an appetizer at best. Li Yijie said: "Is this rhyme girl really so good?" The big man, as if he regarded this question as a great sin, snorted and ignored him. Li Yijie was bored, but he didn't care very much, just watched the dancing intently.
After a while, the dancers stood in a row and bowed to the guests, who had been waiting impatiently for only a few applause. Those dancing girls were not annoyed, and they kissed everyone and stepped off the stage. On the stage, two women dressed as maids stood up, slowly pulled up a curtain, and the guests' emotions reached their peak in an instant.
It was in the midst of this noisy sky that a few notes were euphemistically heard. The sound of the piano is not high, making people feel like a mountain spring winding from a deep valley, flowing slowly, and the body and mind are relaxed like never before. The melody turns sharply a few times, like a spring breeze green over the fields, like rain shoots falling into the shell of a bamboo forest; Like the sound of frogs, like the sound of waves on the shore, and like a bright moon in the dark night. Although the face of the woman behind the gauze tent is not real, I saw that she was dressed in a pale pink dress, long and dragged to the ground, with a green silk combed into a bun, her skin was like clotted fat, white and snowy, and her slender jade hands gently picked the strings, giving people the feeling of supporting the willows in the wind. Hearing this, she opened her lips lightly and sang a song "Poppy Beauty" by Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty:
"The wind returns to the small courtyard and the courtyard is green, and the willow eyes continue in spring. With a long day of silence, the sound of the new moon is still like that year. The sheng song is not dispersed, and the ice on the pond surface is first solved. The candle fragrance is dark, and the temples are full of green frost and residual snow. ”
At the end of a song, all the guests are still immersed in it, if the sound of the right piano is enough to make people swoon, there is a way is "the aftersound is around the beam, three days endlessly", then her singing is the real nature, just in response to "this song should only be in the sky, the world can get a few times". The audience was silent for a long time, and suddenly burst into thunderous applause. Li Yijie sighed: "Now I finally know why the people of Jingxi said her so vividly, but I always feel that there seems to be some sadness in her singing. ”
Jiang Yanchen said: "Yes, didn't you listen to the song she sang?" That Li Yu is the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, as the king of the dead country, the poems contain his sad feelings of the dead country. Li Yijie praised: "Miss Yun can accompany the sorrow of her predecessors with the song of the present time, and interpret it so perfectly, which also makes the listener can't help but empathize, good!" That's great! Chu Menglin sneered: "Brother Li, when did you become so proficient in music?" ”
The rhyme girl didn't greet the guests, she got up, hugged the piano and turned around to leave, as if the response to this song was good or bad, and how the guests in the audience thought it had nothing to do with her. only shows a light and light back, just like the fairy in the sky who is not contaminated with the fireworks in the world.
Suddenly, I heard a man dressed in a fancy costume laughing: "Miss Yun sings well, I have admired your name for a long time, and I really didn't disappoint my uncle." But just listening to one song, just on the head of the addiction, can be said to be not full of fun. The little maid in the audience stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Please forgive me." Miss Yun has a rule: only sing one song a day. If Childe is willing to support her, he can come back tomorrow......"
The man laughed, "What messy rules? I want her to break it for me today. As he spoke, he strode forward and opened the curtain roughly, and the girl Yun exclaimed, he had already grabbed her wrist.
The man smiled and said, "Miss Yun's song is like being in the clouds, if you stop halfway, you will have nowhere for me to land." Yun'er said coldly: "Please be respectful." The two dancers who had been snubbed twisted the waist of the water snake to the stage, grabbed the man, and said coquettishly: "This Yun girl has a big shelf, and our sisters can also make the son happy." Come on......"
The man flicked the sleeves of his robe, threw the two dancing girls straight out, and said to Yun'er: "You are just a dusty woman, but what kind of stinky stand you have come to put on, and what is the difficulty of singing a tune, you are not allowed, you will follow me to the house today." Let's be honest, little beauty, I can't bear to see you buried here, as long as you follow me, I will ensure that you can enjoy endless food and clothing. There is no more frivolity in the words. Yun'er shook her head and said, "No, I don't want to, you let go of me!" There was a little panic in his voice, and he lost the spotless elegance he had before.
He lifted the curtain this time, and everyone had a good opportunity to take a closer look at Yun'er's appearance. But seeing her beautiful melon seed face, slender willow eyebrows, her skin can be broken by blowing, her eyes with hidden tears are hazy like cold stars in the mist, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows are even more infinitely amorous, and her demeanor is pitiful but not delicate and pretentious, which is really a stunner carefully created by God. Li Yijie blurted out: "It's her?" ”
Chu Meng Linqi said: "Do you know her?" It turns out that the disciple of the famous and decent family has a constant and chaotic relationship with the girl of the Agarwood Academy! Li Yijie said: "No." Do you remember that I told you about the money bag that was touched when you were on your way? Chu Menglin said: "Yes, so what?" ”
Nangong Xue snorted coldly and said sourly: "This is the girl who helped him pay the bill." I said earlier that she is not a woman from a good family, but you don't believe it. Li Yijie said: "She must have a hard time." Nangong Xue flattened her mouth and stopped talking. She saw that Li Yijie was full of praise for Yun'er and showed her appreciation, but she was quite unhappy in her heart, and when she saw that Yun'er was in trouble, she only said that she deserved it.
After this trouble, the agarwood courtyard is noisy. The proprietress Mrs. Ruhua also came out of the mountain from the side room, and said coldly: "Who dares to make trouble here? As if she had seen a savior, the little maid hurried to the front and reported in a low voice: "Madam, it is that son who wants the girl to sing a song, and he said...... also said that he wanted to ......" Yun'er cried: "Madam, I don't want to go with him, you save me!" ”
Mrs. Ruhua sighed secretly, a girl who is too beautiful can bring a lot of business to the field, but at the same time, it also implies a lot of trouble. She is a person who opened a store to make a living, so as to make peace and quiet, and at this time she still sighed with good words: "This son, Miss Yun once said that she does not sell her art, and only sings one song a day." The guest officials in the audience can also be regarded as praising her, and they all follow her freedom. ”
The man sneered, "I don't want to praise her, I have to let her know her weight!" A fireworks woman who still wants to go to the sky? In the future, it will not be the same as cheapening others, but to set up some stinky rules like jade! As he spoke, he took out two gold ingots from his pocket, weighed them in his hand at will, and said with a smile: "Mom, as long as you are willing to let Miss Yun accompany me tonight, these two gold ingots will belong to you." Miss Yun's reward should also be counted separately, what do you think? ”
Mrs. Ruhua was the one who saw the money, and immediately took the gold with both hands, and said with a smile: "What the son says is what it is." Yun'er, you go with him, so that you can listen to the words of the son. Yun'er's eyes widened and she said, "You...... How can you do that? You obviously promised me that as long as you can increase the source of customers, you can follow my rules for performances! Mrs. Ruhua didn't say a word, "snapped" and slapped Yun'er, and shouted: "What are you?" Is this agarwood courtyard your final say, or am I the final say? Can you sing a few songs, and then you think you can climb on my head? ”
The little maid was already frightened, and gently pulled the sleeve of Mrs. Ruhua and said, "Madam, this Yun girl is the signboard of our Agarwood Academy, you must not beat it!" Mrs. Ruhua said angrily: "What signboard? The one that can make me money is the signboard. Yun'er, you were desperate that day, if I hadn't taken you in, you would have starved to death on the streets, how could you have today? Don't you know how to be grateful? Yun'er cried: "That's all you forced me, I'm ...... In broad daylight, is there no royal law? ”
The man sneered, "Wang Fa? Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a palm pressing his shoulder and said, "Lao Tzu is the king!" The voice is extremely arrogant, it is Li Yijie. The man said angrily, "What are you doing? Do you dare to take care of Lao Tzu's idle affairs? Why don't you ask who Lao Tzu is? Saying it scares you to death! Li Yijie smiled: "Okay, you come and scare it, the one who fell first is not a hero." ”
The man said angrily: "Lao Tzu is the dart master of Changzhou Jianye Dart Bureau, are you terrible?" Li Yijie smiled: "I also said that you are an executioner." Disrespectful and disrespectful, there are many offends......" The words changed and said solemnly: "It's a pity that I don't buy it, even if you are the head of the dart, I am not afraid of you." The man said angrily: "I see that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin!" As he spoke, he turned around and waved his arm away, and then swung his fist at Li Yijie. Li Yijie drew a semicircle with his left hand, grabbed his arm, and then punched out his right fist, hitting the man in the face, causing him to fall backwards.
The girls in the hall shouted and ran from place to place, panicking. Li Yijie took advantage of the chaos to grab Yun'er and said, "Girl, let's go quickly!" Yun'er was stunned, and was passively pulled by his arm and followed behind him. The two of them ran to the door, but saw a row of people with sticks blocking the passage, and Mrs. Ruhua's sneer sounded behind them: "Is the Agarwood Courtyard a place where you can come and leave if you want?" If you want to take away the girl from me here, and you don't say hello to me, you really don't take me as Mrs. Ruhua in your eyes at all. ”
Li Yijie turned around and said angrily: "How can you ever respect her?" I don't want to make trouble and let your people step down, or Hugh will blame me for being unkind. Mrs. Ruhua sneered: "Okay, then it depends on whether you have this ability!" Do it! The group of servants immediately narrowed the encirclement, trapping Li Yijie and Yun'er in the middle.
Li Yijie said: "Miss Yun, be careful yourself, don't let them hurt you!" Yun'er nodded slightly. Li Yijie's right shoulder sank slightly, and his left foot picked a person's jaw, kicking him away with a stick, the man screamed loudly, and smashed the table with a "bang", and the little maid helped Mrs. Ruhua to avoid the flying sawdust, and Mrs. Ruhua was so angry that she couldn't help but gasp.
Li Yijie turned around, set up a head-on stick with his left arm, took it down, made a false slash in the air, and waited to draw everyone's attention away, so he tilted his center of gravity to his left foot, and swept the enemy's lower plate with his right foot, and a group of people stood unsteadily and fell to the ground. In a matter of moments, the group had been beaten to pieces. Li Yijie pulled Yun'er and said, "Let's go!" As he spoke, he hurried out. Nangong Xue shouted: "Senior brother! Li Yijie's heart was all tied to Yun'er, but he turned a deaf ear, Nangong Xue stomped her feet, and hurriedly chased after her.
Chu Menglin looked at the mess in the hall, crossed her arms and sneered: "The two of them went to have a good time, but they asked us to clean up the mess. Jiang Yanchen said: "Who can blame you for making a bad friend by mistake?" Chu Menglin said unhappily: "I don't care!" That Mrs. Ruhua is afraid that she will quote a sky-high price for us to compensate, and take the opportunity to slaughter a sum. ”
Mrs. Ruhua calmed down, thinking that her people couldn't deal with that nosy teenager, and I was afraid that she would really lose the top card of Yun'er from now on. She is an extremely shrewd businessman, and in this case, she can minimize her losses, even if she makes a profit. hugged her shoulders and sneered: "It seems that the girl is also an understanding person." You came to me to smash the field, and took away my cash cow, 100,000 taels of gold is indispensable, otherwise, I will arrest you and go to the government to report to the official! ”
The group of servants also struggled to their feet, and took a posture of using force again. As everyone knows, this is all an axe for the two of them, Jiang Yanchen sneered slightly, took out a black object from his waist, flicked his index finger, and threw it into the air, like an iron card. Everyone raised their eyes to look at the rotating thing, and Jiang Yanchen said coldly: "The tree is a big wind, I don't think you want to repeat the mistake of the Shadowless Villa." As soon as the words fell, the thing had fallen straight from the air into Jiang Yanchen's open two fingers, and everyone saw that the object was scorched black, and the eight characters "Sacrifice Shadow God Sect, Martial Arts Supreme" were engraved in the middle, and it was so red that it almost wanted to drip blood.
Mrs. Ruhua's face immediately turned pale with fright, and her previous arrogance was completely gone, and she said, "You...... You are ......" The man who was knocked to the ground by Li Yijie, and the man who claimed to be the Jianye Dart Master blurted out: "You are a person from the Shadow Worship Sect?" The idea of playing that dart this time? Jiang Yanchen glanced at him with slanted eyes and said, "What dart are you talking about?" The man was about to answer when a dagger flew out of the shadows like lightning and plunged into the man's heart. The man twitched violently, and before he could even snort, he was killed.
Chu Menglin said angrily: "Someone dares to provoke in front of us, you don't want to teach him a lesson?" Where do we have face? Jiang Yanchen said disdainfully: "It's like someone who has never seen the world!" Hmph, can't you see that this is murder? That dart must be very important, maybe ......"
Chu Menglin pondered for a moment, faintly guessed three points, and said, "This person just mentioned the Jianye Dart Bureau, and this dart was also escorted by them." After a pause, he glanced at the hall, and said nonchalantly: "These people are all gone!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Ruhua knelt on her knees, and kept kowtowing: "I beg the girl to be merciful and spare our lives, the concubine has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, so she borrowed a few of our courage, and the slave family didn't dare to go to the official mansion to reveal the whereabouts of the two heroes!" Chu Menglin sneered: "It's not been a day or two since my debut, what can the government do with us?" Mrs. Ruhua only kowtowed like pounding garlic and said, "Yes!" Be! Beg the girl to spare her life! ”
Over there, Li Yijie had already taken Yun'er to the inn. Neither of them said much along the way, and after sitting down, Yun'er raised her watery eyes, looked at Li Yijie's face for a moment, lowered her eyelids, and said softly: "Thank you, son." Li Yijie said: "When the road is uneven, it is the duty of my generation to draw a knife to help." Besides, you helped me too. Yun'er said strangely: "Isn't it the first time Yun'er and Gongzi have met today?" Where does this begin? ”
Nangong Xue had already stepped inside, picked up the tea on the table, raised her head and drank it, and sneered: "In the past, his money bag was touched, and you paid the bill to solve the siege." It turns out that you don't remember it for a long time, and he has been thinking about it. Yun'er lowered her head and pondered for a moment, and said, "Well, yes, it's a trivial matter, why worry about it." Nangong Xue sneered: "It's a trivial matter to you, but it's far from that simple for him." ”
Li Yijie's face was slightly red, and he wanted to change the topic, and said: "The last time I met the girl, I remembered that there was a little maid beside you, but now why is it gone?" Yun'er said: "Are you talking about a vial?" Vial, she ......" choked up and looked sad.
This rhyme is none other than Shen Shiyun, the eldest lady of the Shen family who escaped from the secret passage. On that day, the vial escaped from the villa with her on her back, but she was concerned about the safety of her father and uncles, and was anxious to return to the village to inspect after waking up. Her body was already extremely weak, and she suddenly felt exhausted in a broken brick and rubble, and she could no longer support it, and fainted immediately. The vial also learned that the Shadowless Mountain Villa was completely destroyed, and there was no day to make a comeback. sighed, thinking that no matter how much he took care of Shen Shiyun, he couldn't get half a tael of oil and water, so he sold her to the Agarwood Courtyard, took her silver and left quietly.
Some people were born poor, so they got a windfall from heaven and could not be blessed, and the vial was attacked by sand thieves while crossing the desert, and was hacked to death with knives, and all the silver was stolen. Sand thieves are rampant, repeated crimes, and the silver has not been recovered, which can be called a major case recently. It was when she was playing in the Agarwood Courtyard that she heard the guests mention this matter after tea, and she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, only to feel that her life was like a mustard, and she had lost many important people in her life in a few days. As for the way forward, it is all unknown.
Shen Shiyun omitted the section on destroying the door in the narrative, and only said that he had fled from a famine place. Li Yijie was embarrassed when he heard it, and sighed: "That vial is your personal maid, but it is so despicable, it hurts your conscience, and it is innocent to die." But she died a terrible death, and the sand thieves were also hateful! The last sentence was that he was very unhappy when he saw Shen Shiyun's expression, and he knew that she still valued that feeling, so he hurriedly added. He said: "Shicai made a lot of trouble in the Agarwood Courtyard, you can't go back there, not to mention I don't want you to stay any longer...... That kind of place. Miss Yun, what are your plans for the future? ”
Shen Shiyun said softly: "Before my father died, he wrote a letter and asked me to go to Chang'an to defect to the regent of the Manchu Dynasty. He is my father's old friend, and when he hears the bad news of his old friend, he is sad, but he will remember the friendship of the past, and follow the instructions of the deceased, and can give me a place to stay, Yun'er is already satisfied. Don't hide it from the son, the reason why I endured the humiliation in the Agarwood Courtyard is also because the travel expenses have not been fully funded. ”
Li Yijie nodded and said, "I see." This is not less than a thousand miles away to Chang'an, you are too dangerous alone, and we will escort you for a ride! Nangong Xue was surprised and said angrily: "Do you know what you're talking about?" I get carried away when I see the beauty, and don't forget that the task assigned by the master has not yet been completed! Li Yijie said: "We sent her there, and we can also stop by to investigate along the way, anyway, it's a general clue now." Nangong Xue said angrily: "I see that you have clearly been confused by her and lost your mind!" ”
Shen Shiyun said sadly: "Yun'er doesn't dare to bother the two heroes. I don't care much about this light life at the moment. Just let me go alone, life and death are fate, even if I am left to fend for myself halfway, that is my fate. Li Yijie said with a straight face: "If you help others, you have to help to the end, Miss Yun, don't refuse anymore, letting you go on the road alone as a weak woman will make my conscience uneasy!" ”
Shen Shiyun was about to speak, Jiang Yanchen and Chu Menglin had already entered the inn. Jiang Yanchen looked at Shen Shiyun silently for a long time, and said coldly: "Does the girl know about the newly destroyed Shadowless Villa?" Shen Shiyun's hand holding the tea cup immediately shook slightly, and a little tea spilled out, and he forced himself to calm down and said, "Not bad." The Agarwood Courtyard is also a place where news spreads very quickly. Jiang Yanchen didn't let go of the slight changes in her expression and demeanor, pretending not to know, and said: "So, you must be no stranger to Broken Soul Tears, right?" I heard that one of your songs is the same name as it, and the response is not small. ”
Li Yijie heard his harsh and cold words, and he couldn't look past it for a long time, and said, "What are you doing with Yun'er talking to you?" Nangong Xue said impatiently: "Just listen to her, what's the matter?" Since the news of the Agarwood Courtyard is so fast, maybe she will know something, and it is not known. Shen Shiyun settled his mind and said: "That song was improvised by Yun'er, reminiscing about the past, sighing, this is a momentary feeling." As for the soul-breaking tears circulating in the rivers and lakes, I don't know. ”
Li Yijie interrupted: "Yanchen, Menglin, you have come just in time, I have decided to send Yun'er to the Chang'an Regent Palace." As he spoke, he elaborated on his plans. Chu Menglin muttered: "That's not the beginning, Chang'an City is located in a prosperous area, maybe you can find out more news." Nangong Xue frowned and said unhappily: "Okay, since you all agree, if I insist on going my own way, it will be stingy." ”
Li Yijie said happily: "In this way, you agreed?" Yun'er is also tired today, so we will rest here and set off tomorrow. Among the women he has been with recently, Chu Menglin is extremely charming and eccentric, while Nangong Xue is quite stable and occasionally plays a little trick. That's the younger sister of her childhood sweetheart for many years, and she has long been accustomed to it. is a woman like Shen Shiyun who has a gentle personality, dignified manners, and shows everyone's demeanor in words and deeds, but it is the first time she has come into contact with her. If he didn't have a good upbringing, it would have been difficult to achieve such a stunner, which made him quite protective.
It was night, Chu Menglin was lying in her clothes, but she was tossing and turning, and it was difficult to sleep. She is the heart of a girl after all, and the woman next to her is more beautiful than herself. But in all fairness, Shen Shiyun is indeed both talented and beautiful, and Li Yijie and Jiang Yanchen are extremely concerned about her. Displeased, she got up slowly, stared at Shen Shiyun who was sleeping on the side for a long time, her jade finger gently swiped across her cheeks, and then went to the brass ancient mirror placed on the side to take a closer look at her appearance.
This time it added to the trouble, the more you looked at it, the more you felt that Shen Shiyun's appearance was far better than herself, and she was simply not very outstanding. Just when I was disturbed, I suddenly felt a faint fragrance flowing in from the crack in the window. Chu Menglin was in good spirits, and he hurriedly covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and he was secretly fighting against each other. When the aroma slowly dissipated, I heard a "Miyo" make a wild cat cry downstairs, and after a while, another voice also whispered "Miyo", which was obviously a long-agreed code answer.
Chu Menglin pondered: "It must have been a misty incense just now, the other party acted so cautiously, but who was it?" What is the purpose? Could it be related to the dart that was lifted during the day? This matter needs to be clarified! Immediately, he gently pushed open the window, jumped down, and entered through the low window on the first floor of the inn, and hid behind the counter.
After a while, I heard a few people walking into the inn, and there was a sound of tables and chairs colliding, and the visitors had already taken their seats. I could only hear a clear voice and said: "Jianye Dart Bureau Long Lao Darthead, Kunlun Shuangxia, Kongtong Sect Leader Real People, have you all arrived?" An old and rich voice replied: "We have already agreed to Lord Cao's help, and there is no reason to regret it." Chu Menglin said in her heart: "This must be the old dragon dart." ”
I heard a person say coldly: "The two of us are no longer Kunlun disciples, and the title will never be mentioned again in the future, and it will not stain the ears of others." Call us the 'Heroes of the Forest'! Then Lord Cao smiled and said, "But take the meaning of 'deterrent martial arts'?" This is also very good, the two of them are separated from Kunlun, and they can achieve a career on their own in the rivers and lakes, why should heroes be useless! The man snorted and said no more.
Lord Cao then said: "This dart is extraordinary, and the regent attaches great importance to it, so he asked me to escort it with Long Lao Dart, and said that it must be sent to Chang'an before August." It's better to be cautious in everything, and the sand thieves are eyeing it, and I heard that the Shadow Sacrifice Sect is also very interested in this dart. Chu Menglin said in her heart: "It turns out that there are some powerful people who personally escort the darts, no wonder the ordinary dart masters next to them are idle." ”
I heard a hoarse voice again: "Lord Cao, don't worry." Since the two of them went out of the mountain in person, and the whole of our faction should also help them, the thief taught him great courage and did not dare to touch it. Listening to his voice, it was the aggressive Kongtong head who was on the top of Wudang Mountain a few days ago, Chu Menglin secretly sneered, she knew that this person was bent on obtaining the Soul Breaking Tears, and this time he promised the bodyguard, he must not have any good intentions.
Master Cao said lukewarmly: "Thank you for this." When the deed is done, the regent will remember your benefits, and you will be able to make a name for yourself as a member of the Kongtong faction. The head of Kongtong stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The old man thinks in his heart every day, that is, he wants to magnify my Kongtong, even if it is Shaolin and Wudang, he must be subordinate." ”
Master Cao only said "um", and said: "Long Lao Dart, this dart is related to our net worth, and there is no mistake in the slightest." Long Lao Dart sighed: "This nature, if there is any mistake, my Jianye Dart Bureau will have no place in the rivers and lakes in the future." Lord Cao softened his tone and said gently: "It's not that I doubt the strength of Long Lao's dart, but now the stakes are very high, so we must first explain the benefits and disadvantages, and I hope you don't want to be surprised." Long Lao said: "Yes, I will take care of myself." ”
The head of Kongtong suddenly said: "With the strength of the three of us, it can be said that we have been nine out of ten, but Lord Cao has found these two people who have wasted their hands, I don't know why?" One of them slammed his glass on the table and exclaimed, "What did you say? Don't think that if you are the head of the Kongtong faction, the two of us deserve to be afraid of you! The other person also said angrily: "Yes, now the two of us are no longer under the Kunlun Sect, and I don't have to pay attention to the false courtesies of my uncle and uncle in the past!" Master Cao said coldly: "Don't be impatient, three of you!" His voice was not high, but there was a deterrent force, and the three of them were silenced.
Master Cao continued: "Why is there no place for heroes to worry, we have only said this. I and the head of Kongtong and the head of the dragon dart are heavy-handed, and they are both young, with active minds, and they should be wise. This time they may be ambushed by sand thieves along the way, but these two friends can lead the group to take some shortcuts. We are not afraid of things, but although the other party is called 'sand' thieves, their footprints are also all over the desert, lakes and seas, and it is better to avoid them as much as possible, so as not to cause trouble and get into trouble. Turning to the two of them: "The two of you have made meritorious contributions, I can recommend you to the prince to be crowned king and marquis, and add officials to the knighthood." ”
One of them snorted and said: "We don't want to be officials, and we don't want to get the reward of Na Laoshizi, but we hate those two thieves who waste our hands to the core, didn't Lord Cao personally agree in advance that he would help us cook?" Master Cao smiled and said, "If you want someone to help, this sincerity should come first." The two thieves are now resting in the upper room on the second floor of this inn, and they are unconscious after being hit by the incense, and they want to deal with it, as they like. ”
The head of Kongtong held up the wine jar with one hand, spoke humbly, poured some wine in front of the cup of Kunlun Shuangxia, and said with a smile: "It is expected that they will not wake up for a while, the old man was rude before, and please drink some thin wine, and the right to make amends." At that time, the moon was bright, and Chu Menglin looked at it from the oblique side, but he clearly saw a strange arc at the corner of his mouth.
