Chapter 33: The So-Called Ancient Divine Beasts
The people watching the play didn't understand what was going on, so they all rushed to this side, and when the scholar saw this, he quickly hid behind Nan Mo.
The man in black didn't want to attract too much attention, so he looked at the slender girl standing in the moonlight, and ordered his subordinates with a somewhat flustered expression: "Withdraw." ”
Seeing this group of black-clothed people disappear into the night, Nan Mo thoughtfully put away the agarwood card on the ground, but there was something thoughtful between his eyebrows.
At this time, she suddenly felt that there was a fat on her legs, and when her eyes moved down, she saw the scholar holding his calves, and she didn't dare to open her eyes.
More and more people came to this side, Nan Mo really couldn't afford to lose this person, shook his legs, and saw that the scholar still didn't let go at all, so he pulled him into the deep alley.
After trotting for a while, and then turning around, he finally got rid of a group of gossip spies.
The two stopped in front of the glimmer of light in front of the door of the West Lake house.
Nan Mo couldn't help panting after Fang Cai's attempt, and said with his left hand: "Hey, you are a big man, why are you so useless." ”
The scholar had the courage to open his eyes and take a closer look, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, he was startled when he saw it.
The "little brother" in the glimmer was draped with long hair, slender eyebrows, clear eyes, and beautiful facial features, which was even more graceful under the moonlight.
"Woman?" The scholar was shocked, and as far as his eyebrows could see, it was Nan Mo who grabbed his wrist, and he immediately withdrew his hand, lest he avoid it and took a few steps back. He just shouted that the girl from a light and good family was just an expedient measure, but he didn't expect it to be a daughter's family. Thinking of his previous humiliating behavior, he couldn't help but turn red and white.
"Don't blame the girl, Xiaosheng is really abrupt, really rude, and really deserves death."
Nan Mo raised his eyebrows, he hugged his thighs in fright just now, and it was clear at this moment. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have been involved in this matter today.
This scholar has a thin body and bones, and a green shirt is wrapped around his body like a robe. The cyan headband pulls up the long hair, the facial features are handsome, and he is a pretty jade-faced scholar.
Nan Mo had the intention of joking, so he deliberately looked cold, and reversed black and white and said: "I thought that Your Excellency was a person with great ambitions, so I came to the rescue." Unexpectedly, in the face of bad people, Your Excellency actually wants to give away your money, it will really be the wrong person. ”
"No, no." The scholar in the cyan robe arched his hand to the sky, his eyes bright: "Money is something outside the body, they want money and Xiaosheng will give him property, it is better than being killed by a gangster and taking his life in vain, so how can Xiaosheng serve his family and country?" ”
The corners of Nan Mo's mouth twitched, it was the first time I had seen someone say that greed for life and fear of death were so fresh and refined.
The scholar showed a bright white tooth smile, "What's more, Xiaosheng entered Beijing to take the exam, and he had very little property on his body, even if he was captured by that thief, he could also learn from those monks all the way to move forward, wouldn't it be interesting?" ”
“……”
It's also the first time I've seen someone say something so high-sounding about a meal.
Nan Mo was disdainful, and his words were even more ridiculous, "Keep saying that you want to serve your family and country, don't you also want to learn from that Feng Jingyu General to fight with the Wuyou?" ”
The scholar twisted his eyebrows, and said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "Vulgar, ugly, shallow." There is merit in General Feng's loyalty to the monarch and defending the country, but after all, it is the courage of the horseman, and if you talk about the long-term plan of the country, you should rule it with literature. ”
Nan Mo felt amused and patted the scholar on the shoulder, "That person wants your life, do you still want to tell you these big truths?" It's not too late today, and these people you offended may be in a bad mood, and it is not impossible to meet you again. ”
Nan Mo learned from the scholar's appearance, shook his head and left with his hands behind his back.
"What the girl said is very true, and Xiaosheng thinks so." The scholar hung his head and muttered for a long time, and finally raised his head, "Hey, girl, stay ......."
Nan Mo paused at his feet, and listened to the people behind him: "Xiaosheng sees the beauty of the girl's birth, although it is the Shangyuan Festival, as the girl said, it is inconvenient to walk at night, it is better for Xiaosheng to protect the girl." ”
She wants him to take refuge? Nan Mo really admired this person's ability to reverse black and white, and looked at him with interest, how brazen could he be?
"Xiaosheng is a person from Hucheng, and seeing that the girl is not like a local person, it is better to let Xiaosheng explain the festival customs of Hucheng on behalf of the girl, and relieve the girl's boredom. When I arrived at the Chengbei Inn, Xiaosheng said goodbye to the girl again, what did the girl think? ”
Relieve her boredom? I was afraid that I was afraid that I would be knocked on again, so I wanted to walk with her.
An inn in the north of the city? Qiyue Lake is also in the north of the city, but it is the same road. Nanmo doesn't mind bringing someone with him.
"Xiaosheng, Xiaosheng...... I thought that the girl's behavior was inappropriate, so untidy, if she went on the main street, it would be easy to provoke people's reverie. Hucheng is a border city, and there are often merchants from other countries doing business and trade, and if you see it, you are afraid that it will damage the national ceremony. The scholar's face was embarrassed, he looked at Nan Mo and motioned for him to come along, and kindly reminded her that it was her Nan Mo who was ashamed.
Disheveled? Nan Mo pointed at himself, if he just scattered his hair, he could rise to the point of losing his dignity and damaging the national ceremony.
The scholar saw that Nan Mo had anger on his face, and cleverly diverted the topic, "Xiaosheng was rude, he didn't tell the girl's name, Xiaosheng's surname is Su Mingzi Ruan, and he doesn't dare to ask the girl's name......"
"What's not to dare to do? My name is Nan Mo, a family of six, fifteen years old this year, and I have never been married. ”
"Well, that's it", she pulled Su Ziruan's hand, and the word Nanmo was in the palm of her hand.
The scholar's face suddenly turned red, spreading all the way to the root of his ears, and even his neck was flushed with a thin red.
The scholar saw that the more she talked, the more outrageous it became, but she was like a matchmaker with others, and he was worried.
Isn't this scholar shy?
Nan Mo suddenly felt interesting in his heart, and the haze of caution that had been in the past few days was swept away at this moment. After all, it is much more interesting for this scholar to follow the distinction between men and women than for the people in the house to observe the distinction between dignity and inferiority.
The side sleeve garden, the residence of the Fang family, the atmosphere of this side sleeve garden, is like being built with the specifications of the housewife. It's a pity that Master Jing's love for Fang's family is far more than that. The two often live together in the main garden, and Fang's only went out to meet friends during the New Year's Festival before he returned to his own residence.
"I have found out, the eldest young master left the house this time, but it was just to have a private meeting with Nan Mo's girl." Cheng Ying passed on the news from Liu Cheng.
"Oh?" Fang's fox was so happy after he doubted, "The lowly thing that was born is really also a lowly species, and it actually looks at a cheap maid?" ”
"Auntie, do you want to send someone to inform the master?"
If Master Jing knew that Jing Mohuai was having a good time with a girl, he would definitely be furious.
Fang's well-maintained face crossed a grim smile, she originally wanted to deal with Nan Mo, but now she is not ready to start, is it a perfect match for a cheap breed and a cheap maid?
"Not necessarily." Fang raised his hand and stroked his beautiful face, "You have to boil it slowly, boil it out some flavor, and the boiling soup will taste good." ”
For so many years, no matter how much the master punished Jing Mohuai, it was not because he still had a glimmer of grace, not because he was worried about his love with that cheap woman.
Nan Mo's girl is very cunning, and Jing Mohuai is not a bone to gnaw. These two people get together, and they come and go, so they naturally have more handles, and they are not in a hurry at this moment.
Through talking along the way, Nan Mo learned that Su Ziruan was going to participate in the palace examination in Dijing in early March. It was only because he once won the first place at the Jiangnan Lanzhi Conference and won the favor of the prince Shangyue, so he was entangled by some forces.
The annual Laneige Society of the Dasheng Dynasty, regardless of status and status, only in terms of talent, temperament and learning, some children of poor families passed the selection of Laneige Club layer by layer, in a vain attempt to show their faces in front of dignitaries and dignitaries, so that they could rise to prominence in the future.
The crown prince Shang Yue valued Su Ziruan's talent, and openly and secretly had the intention of recruiting, but Su Ziruan refused Shang Yue on the grounds that his mother was seriously ill.
This prince has always been a cold-blooded master, and he is not used by him, nor can he be used by others. So he moved to kill, if it weren't for King Cheng'an's secret protection and open pressure, this Su Ziruan would not have been able to return to his home in Hucheng safely.
Now that his mother has recovered from a serious illness, she naturally hopes to see her son's future bright, Su Ziruan was ordered by his mother to take the exam, and he lived up to expectations.
Now I'm going to Kyoto to take the temple exam.
When he arrived at the Chengbei Inn, Su Ziruan really lived here, and Nan Mo explained to him a few words, asking him to pay attention to his whereabouts and safety.
"This is going to Kyoto, the mountains are high and the road is far away, if he is in high school one day, he will repay the Nanmo girl for saving her today." Su Ziruan gave his hand this time, and said sincerely.
"Repay the favor?" Nan Mo's eyes lit up, and he remembered the passage in the book, "You don't want to make a promise, right?" ”
Su Ziruan couldn't make a joke, and suddenly his face turned red again, and he really wanted to remind Nan Mo that her words were inappropriate.
After stumbling for a long time, he finally held back a sentence, "Nanmo girl...... If the girl says so, then I will ......"
Nan Mo saw that he was really so thin-faced and easy to deceive, and he was afraid that he would really say something shocking, so he waved his hand, "I'm joking, you don't take it seriously, I mean that if you become an official in the imperial capital in the future, you must never forget me as a life-saving benefactor." ”
Su Ziruan said awe-inspiringly: "Of course, the blue sky and the white day, Chongzheng will not talk nonsense, and he will definitely keep Miss Nanmo in his heart." ”
"Then it's decided, if I go to Kyoto in the future, I will have to rely on you."
Along the way, although Hucheng coincided with the Shangyuan Festival and there were many vendors, after all, the population was sparse and it was not lively. After she leaves Jingfu in the future, she will have to go to the imperial capital to have a lively time. It's necessary to build up some contacts in advance.
Qiyue Lake is the scenery north of the city, and when Nanmo passed all the way, it was already in the middle of the moon.
There are almost no tourists on the lake.
"You're late." The man in the wide-sleeved plain robe on the Nanmu wheelchair, his smooth knuckles knocking on the corner of the wooden handrail of the wheelchair.
From Nanmo's breath, the moonlight poured out, as if it came from eternity, long and fine.
The man under the moon, the wide-sleeved plain robe, the ink hair poured out, the beautiful facial features, the eyes were shining, she remembered the fall and purity in the snow on Chinese New Year's Eve, how similar is it now?
Nan Mo looked away from the wheelchair where the man was sitting, "There was an accident on the road, and I was greedy for a while." Nan Mo was stunned, and didn't talk about his acquaintance with Su Ziruan.
The corners of Jing Mohuai's lips hooked, "I should have been stolen by which Qinlou Chu Pavilion had a private meeting with a beauty......
"Jing Mohuai, what do you mean?" Nan Mo jumped almost immediately, and Fang Cai's sadness disappeared completely.
Er Sheng on the side was not surprised, his face was still expressionless, but Su Xin's mouth seemed to be able to hold an egg.
The young master is waiting for someone on the shore of Qiyue Lake, what kind of big man is he still a big man, but it turned out to be Nan Mo, a girl. This girl was also bold, and dared to call the young master's name.
saw that the corners of his lips were curled up, revealing teasing, "Ah Mo is emanating, and the green clouds are disturbing, as if he is specially dressed up for his newlyweds." ”
“……”
Su Xin swallowed his saliva, it was indeed deliberately dressed, his hair was messy, and his clothes were untidy. Su Xin grimaced and grinned at the lake.
Nan Mo looked at the lake, and the woman in the water, with her hair scattered, looked like a female ghost, disheveled, embarrassed, and the corners of her mouth twitched. I have to say that Jing Mohuai's ability to laugh at people is absolutely superior.
"Ah", she whispered, she was grabbed by the man in the wheelchair, the angle changed, and the next moment she leaned over and looked at each other. Er Sheng's face changed, and he subconsciously pulled Su Xin.
Nan Mo remembered that the first time they met, it was such a scene, but the same scene, the coerced person was different, and she was sure that Jing Mohuai was taking revenge.
But I didn't want to, the man put one hand on the back of her head, the green silk was wrapped around his fingertips, and the other hand took out a white hosta from the cuff, and the fingers were as white as jade, and the white hosta deftly tied a simple male and female hair bun for her, and the white hosta slowly sank into her hair.
However, with an instant, there was no confinement, Nan Mo immediately straightened up, and Er Sheng also let go of the hand covering Su Xin's eyes.
Nan Mo touched the white hosta on his head, the jade was cool and warm, and the place touched by his fingertips only felt slippery, knowing that this was the best mutton fat jade.
"To you, the gift of the Metaverse." Jing Mohuai said lightly.
"The young master is very biased, Su Xin has been with you for so many years, and he hasn't seen a gift of half a penny." Su Xin's mouth was pursed, and his little face was puffing.
Nan Mo ignored Su Xin's words, "Come and don't be rude", Nan Mo looked behind the man, and the sparkling lake was floated by the cold wind.
The shrubs on the shore are very vigorous, "There are flowers blooming in winter?" ”
The flowers on the bushes are small but vibrant, and the goose-yellow stamens shine through the moonlight, which is particularly beautiful.
"It's Yuuka." Jing Mohuai explained lightly.
Yukami? Nan Mo's eyebrows moved slightly, but it was an elegant name.
As if to explain to her, Jing Mohuai continued: "The flowering period of incense is in winter, and it is rumored that it can dissolve nightmares and bring good luck. ”
"I know what to give you back." Nan Mo smiled at the corner of his lips and approached the bush. A few times and three times, I pulled a lot.
Su Xin looked at Nan Mo's behavior, and only felt vulgar, how could this Nan Mo have the decency that a normal woman should have?
Nan Mo originally wanted to tie a Chinese knot, but because of her poor skills, two quarters of an hour later, she didn't know what the thing she made was.
Nan Mo looked at the thing that Yuuka typed out, and then looked at Jing Mohuai.
Spreading out his palms, he said with Su Ziruan's righteous and awe-inspiring expression: "This...... This is an ancient divine beast, because it is extinct, so it is not recorded in the book, and even fewer people have heard of it.
Nan Mo nodded, as if he was convincing the people in the field, and talked nonsense seriously.
"Really?" The man's beautiful voice sounded, and the graceful knuckles reached over to take her hand, and took the knick-knack in her hand.
Nan Mo's fingertips were cold, he gasped, and complained: "Ersheng, when your young master goes out, you don't bring more clothes." ”
Ersheng in the shadows shuddered, what is this? Is there a fire at the city gate, and the fish in the pond are affected?
