Chapter 5: Carved Heart Flower (2)
In the hazy dawn before dawn, Nanle quietly untied the reins in the yard, led it out, turned over the horse steadily, tried to shake the whip, and pulled the rope away into the wind.
I thought that this would be indefinite with the person who had been with him for a few days, anyway, he had said all the words of parting and two forgiveness, why was she still by his side, wouldn't it be better to part ways with him as soon as possible?
Nanle stayed in Jiangzhou until dawn, and inquired about the Yushengmen that Yi Ci said, and learned that the Liaoshengmen also had to go to the imperial capital headquarters to have a chance to enter.
Nanle asked for directions, and when he set off in the direction of the imperial capital, he happened to run into the crowd, dozens of people were tied to the pillars, and there were stacks of dry firewood and grass under their feet, and the one holding the torch in his hand with a mask next to him was the master of the hidden gate who saved her yesterday.
He was dealing with the disciples who had killed for money in public to the people, so that he could regain the name of the hidden door.
Nanle didn't have time to see how they turned to ashes in the end, and hurriedly reined in and left.
The emperor is more prosperous than Jiangzhou, with restaurants and inns everywhere, and most of the people walking on the street are dignitaries.
The woman in white clothes and with a hat covering her face originally wanted to work against a certain neuropathy to join the Liaoshengmen, but the Liaoshengmen only accepted a group of disciples for three years, and if she wanted to enter the Liaoshengmen, she had to wait until next year, Nanle couldn't wait, someone was secretly trying to kill her, she had to learn to protect herself as soon as possible.
The door of the few lives could not be reached, so Nanle had to retreat to find the hidden door.
The reason for this is that there are only these two sects.
When walking through a cloth workshop, Nan Le saw a familiar figure in the cloth workshop opposite, and the clothes on the woman's body were not the same as when she first arrived in Yiguo.
Nanle decides to follow the servant girl in order to find out who she is, and maybe find some clues about the enemy.
Nanle followed all the way, hiding behind the wall, and saw the woman come to the front of the Guogong Mansion.
In addition to her, there was also an old woman dressed in grace and luxury standing in front of the gate of the Guogong Mansion, with her back to Nanle and her face missing, it seemed that she was waiting here deliberately.
Nan Le Fang knew that she was the maidservant of the Guogong Mansion, and she attached herself to the wall to listen to their conversation.
The woman bowed and saluted, "Ma'am." ”
The old woman asked, "Is there any news?" ”
"The slave maid went to inquire, but the hidden door failed to kill her, and the killers and the little door master were all disposed of. Now she may have left Jiangzhou for refuge. ”
The old woman snorted coldly: "Hmph, that dead girl, send someone out to look for it, don't come back if you can't find it, if you find it, don't kill it." ”
"Yes."
Nanle was stunned by the wall, who was the person in their mouth if she wasn't her? As for the deep hatred between them, I don't know anything, Nan Le only knows that his situation is very dangerous, according to Yi Ci, the people of the Liushengmen also want to kill her, and the lady of the Guogongfu is looking for the hidden door, so who is looking for the Liushengmen to kill her? Nanle doesn't understand, and he can't rush to investigate, the top priority is to enter the hidden door as soon as possible to learn to protect himself.
The hidden step door is to recruit disciples once every six months, Nan Le just stepped on the point, and she can sign up for another month, but if you want to enter the hidden step door, you need to be assessed, as for the assessment content, it is not yet clear, only that the previous assessment in addition to testing martial arts skills, but also to test cultural content, and Nan Le does not even recognize Yi Guo's words, it seems that she has to ask a teacher to make up for the lesson.
Nan Le settled down at the inn, thinking about how to hire a safe, reliable and credible teacher, no need for a professional, just a little more literacy.
When a bright moon hangs high in the starry sky in midsummer, the night breeze blows away the scorching heat of the day, and the streets and alleys of the imperial capital are full of people, and everywhere is extremely lively.
Nanle prepared a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and planned to write the advertising slogan "Urgently recruit a master, education is not limited, food and shelter, and a monthly salary of one million is not a dream", I remembered that if she could write Yi Guo's words, what kind of bullshit would she recruit! was already in chaos in his heart, and the broken door of the inn couldn't cover the hustle and bustle of eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling downstairs, which only increased Nanle's upset.
Suddenly, a few panicked screams of "catch the thief" came from next door, Nan Le was about to get up to take a look, after the sound of opening and closing the door slowly and cautiously, the masked man in black flashed to Nan Le's side as quickly as the wind, and put a dagger against her neck: "Don't move." "Someone drink lightly.
Nan Le didn't dare to act rashly, his face was calm and fearless, after all, it was not the first time he had faced life and death.
A crazy voice came from next door: "Search for me!" Even if you turn the entire imperial capital over, you will catch me! To live! ”
The sharp blade of the dagger roamed Nanle's white neck, and the man in black said in a calm voice: "They will search for them soon, as long as you do what I say." ”
Nan Le followed closely: "Why should I help you?" ”
The black-clothed man's hand moved quickly and proportionately, and the dagger cut through the skin, dripping out a little blood. "Your life is in my hand."
Nan Le felt the pain and blood gurgling down his neck, but his face still did not change, he was ruthless, she could be even more ruthless: "If I die, there will be no one to help you." "She knew he needed him, so she wouldn't kill her.
The footsteps of the searchers were getting closer.
The man in black's eyes were full of admiration, smiled lightly, and compromised as if admitting defeat: "Then what do you want?" ”
"Divide me in half, and don't tell me you didn't catch anything." Otherwise, how could the next door be angry like this.
"Deal."
Nan Le quickly and neatly took out the spare men's clothes from the baggage, threw them to the man in black, and pointed to the inner room: "Come in and change in, I'll help you drag them down."
The man in black turned and entered the inner room.
Just in the next second, the door was rudely kicked open, and three or five people rushed in, and the leader ordered: "Search for me, don't let go of a corner!"
A few others were about to break in, but Nanle stood in front of them and shouted, "Stop!" As soon as she frowned and glared, she instinctively created a cold face, and the strength of her aura made the person who came tremble physically and mentally, and she didn't dare to take another step forward.
The one who took the lead was not frightened, because everyone else except him was the second and third in the inn, and these workers who regarded customers as gods were naturally more afraid.
I think it was the unlucky guy who was stolen and ordered the people in the inn to search his room, which is really arrogant, and they don't work for you.
Nan Le looked at the unlucky bastard, and his face softened slightly: "Childe, what are you going to do?"
The unlucky guy seemed to disdain to look at her: "A thief just stole something, we are searching, and I hope the girl will forgive me, don't toast and don't eat and drink."
Nanle said: "Don't misunderstand, Childe, I've been in this room all along, and I haven't seen an assassin come in."
The unlucky man snorted coldly: "That's not necessarily, it's inevitable that the assassin's accomplices harbor evil intentions."
Nanle said nonsense: "Oh? Childe means that I, a little woman, am the assassin's accomplices? ”
"If the girl wants to prove her innocence, she might as well let us search for it."
Nan Le continued: "If you secretly put stolen goods in my room, and in turn say that I stole them, then wouldn't I be unable to tell ten mouths?"
"The girl has repeatedly shirked, isn't her heart weak?"
She really didn't have this: "Childe said and laughed, I haven't even seen half a shadow of the thief, why is my heart weak?" I have a clear conscience. ”
The unlucky guy said politely: "Then get out of the way for me!"
Calculating the time, it should be changed soon, that person is definitely nimble.
Nanle wanted to delay one last time, but she didn't expect that person to be faster than she expected.
The clear male voice sounded behind itself: "Lady, I've washed it, won't you go to wash it?" ”
Hearing that familiar title, Nanle was stunned, and she almost thought it was him.
She knew that it was impossible, because the eyes of the two of them were completely different, Yi Ci's eyes always contained tenderness and smile, while he was sharp and rational.
But Nanle still turned his head with illusions.
Not him.
It turned out that it really wasn't him.
Why does it seem that she is a little lost in her heart, it is obviously a person who has only known her for a few days, it is just a person who has passed by her life and will soon fade from her memory.
Soon it will fade from memory, if not often.
Feng Chihao changed into Nanle's thinner men's clothes, but his equally thin figure was completely controllable, and he looked like a haggard and humble scholar.
He wasn't him, but his smiling face was somewhat similar to him.
Feng Chihao's hair was dripping with water, as if he had really bathed.
He pretended to be surprised: "Why are there so many people, what happened?" ”
He walked up to Nan Le, naturally put his arm around her shoulders, pulled the so-called lady into his arms, lowered his head and laughed quietly: "Do you have a clear conscience?" ”
Nan Le looked up at his face intently, so familiar, is it really too similar, or is it her illusion?
The unlucky guy repeated the thief's incident to Feng Chihao again, Feng Chihao said goodbye, and a group of people searched the house, but they didn't return.
Feng Chihao went out from them, closed the door, turned around and said politely, "Thank you, girl." ”
Nanle sat down, poured tea and asked him, "Do I want a thank you?" ”
"So what?"
"Don't play dumb, you know what I want." Nanle was a little angry, he agreed so happily, he should have known that he was not a trustworthy person.
"It's better for the girl to make another one, as long as I can do it."
Nan Le slapped the table heavily, showing a thin anger: "I don't want anything else!" Are you going to go back on your word? Say half the good. ”
Feng Chihao turned his back, put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly, and said leisurely: "It's not that I won't give you half of it, I'm afraid that I will give it all to you, and you won't dare to take it." ”
Nanle snorted coldly, "There is something that I Nanle dare not take." ”
When Feng Chihao heard such a big breath, he turned around and smiled coldly at her, and then took out the heavy object of gold carving and jade from his arms.
Nan Le opened her eyes, she had also seen this thing on TV, wasn't it the jade seal of the country? I can't imagine that this guy is so bold that he dares to steal this!
Feng Chihao said provocatively: "Do you still want to divide it?" ”
Nan Le glared at him: "If you want to die yourself, I won't bury you." Anyway, I saved you, so cash it out. She held out her hand in front of him.
Feng Chihao frowned and expressed puzzlement: "Discount? ”
