Volume 1 Flowers, Birds, Fish and Insects Chapter 35 In Wuyi Alley
During the Three Kingdoms, Sun Quan set the capital of Jinling, and the stone city garrison lived in the alley on the bank of the Qinhuai River, because the garrison army was dressed in black clothes, so this lane was also called Wuyi Lane.
The Three Kingdoms were unified in Wei, and the world of Cao Wei was stolen by the Sima clan, and the capital was Luoyang, which was the Western Jin Dynasty.
After the rebellion of the eight kings, the national fortunes of the Western Jin Dynasty declined day by day, and the Xiongnu were destroyed, and the Sima royal family crossed to the south and built the capital in Jinling, which was for the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The Eastern Jin Dynasty Zhongxing Famous Minister, the first to recommend Wang Dao, after Wang Dao, should be Xie An. Without these two people, there would be no century-old Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Langya Wang's family, Chenjun Xie's family, Wang Xie's two families since the southern crossing of the clothes, living in Wuyi Lane, the two ethnic groups have produced many talents, such as Wang Dao, Wang Dun, Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi, such as Xie An, Xie Xuan, Xie Lingyun and Xie Wei, and a poetess Xie Daoyun.
The world calls it "Wuyilang", the official is power-leaning towards the government and the opposition, and the text is dominant. Prosperous Wei and Jin, stretching for five dynasties and ten countries, the ancient scholars, there is no one out of the right of the two families of King Xie.
Hundreds of years later, in the Tang Dynasty, an official ended his derogatory career and was ordered to return to Luoyang.
Passing by Jinling, do a temporary rest, play on the bank of the Qinhuai River for half a day, get off the Vermilion Bird Bridge, come to the Wuyi Alley, the ruins are broken, the swallows are flying wildly, facing the late twilight sunset, there is quite a sense of the west wind remnant, the Han family mausoleum.
Thinking of his ups and downs for half his life, the sea was drifting, holding back his tears, he poured a big sip of wine, patted the stone wall beside him, startled a group of birds, and whispered,
Wild grass and flowers by the Vermilion Bird Bridge, and the sunset at the mouth of Wuyi Alley.
In the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people.
The change of dynasties, the rise and fall of the scholars, the passing clouds, a song "Jinling Nostalgia", the road to the vicissitudes of life.
On the Vermilion Bird Bridge, Qi Chen didn't know what the vicissitudes of life were, hugged Zheng Sanguan's neck, and didn't care about his smell of wine, while walking, he asked in a low voice which girl in the Qinglou in Jinling was the most gentle.
Carrying Canglong and crying blood, Tie Lingshuang stared at the two in front of him and quickly became familiar, and the conversation became louder and louder, bursts of low laughter came from time to time, and he couldn't resist the idea of shooting the two of them into the Qin Huai River, his face was pale.
Although Zheng Sanguan's family business is large, in Jinling City, every inch of land is gold, and in this famous Wuyi Alley, he can only grab a small courtyard with three entrances.
The three of them came to the small courtyard of the Zheng family, the shadow wall of the front yard was carved with four gentlemen's flowers, plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum, quite delicate, the yard was placed with finely cut pine and cypress green plants, and a large water tank was placed in the middle, in which a light red water lily opened.
Businessmen together, equal to the military array, acting at the opportunity, the most important, the name of Jinyiwei, known to the world, can not be avoided, but since it can't be avoided, then build a good relationship.
Zheng Sanguan bent over, invited the two into the inner courtyard, and called his wife to soak in the finest Tieguanyin, Qi Chen pulled Zheng Sanguan to chat, and occasionally consulted about Zhou Yunhe.
Standing in the courtyard, Tie Lingshuang stared at it carefully, there were not many furnishings in the inner courtyard, bluestone paths, and a few pots of common flowers and plants.
The east and west wings have average specifications, but the windows and doors are all high-quality yellow sandalwood, which is not only tough, but also fragrant, and calming and reassuring. The main house is made of mahogany, which has a mellow color and a serious atmosphere.
Tie Lingshuang bowed slightly, saying that there are three generations of wealth, dressing and eating, this Zheng Sanguan has a fat head and big ears, full of greasy, and at first glance he is a person who is rich, but this place of residence is quite exquisite, and it is very scholarly.
The bone bird on his waist did not move at all, Tie Lingshuang did not dare to relax, and carefully looked at the front and back, not letting go of any traces.
Demons and monsters are easy to detect, and demons and monsters are the most difficult to detect.
Regardless of whether the tiger or leopard or the chicken or dog cultivates the essence, they are all living creatures, and it is the most difficult for living creatures to hide traces.
The demon cultivated by flowers and trees is also a living thing itself, but the key lies in a Tibetan character, and it is difficult to detect it when the spiritual sense is hidden.
Strange is even more peculiar, tables, chairs and benches, roadside stones, calligraphy and paintings on the wall, this is a dead thing, the best to hide, not in front of it, do not gather spirit, it is difficult to detect. Just like the bronze bell in Jiming Temple, the whale pestle that rang the bell, I haven't noticed it in the past few years.
But demons and monsters also have shortcomings, they can't move, they can only stay quietly, until the aura in the body is sufficient, and they are about to cross the tribulation, so they can move, and after the thunder tribulation, they can transform into people.
After checking the small courtyard and the inside and outside of the room, Tie Lingshuang took the tea cup carefully handed over by Mrs. Zheng and took a sip, yes, it is the best Tieguanyin, the tea is green like a lake, fragrant like an orchid, mellow iron bones, and Shenqi Guanyin.
"The house is good, Zheng Sanguan, you just said that you haven't gone out recently, only today?"
Hearing Tie Lingshuang's inquiry, Zheng Sanguan hurriedly nodded and returned,
"This lord, Jinling is hot and stuffy in summer, we are all nested at home, the weather has become cooler recently, I chose to go out today, I didn't expect to encounter this. ”
Putting down the teacup, Tie Lingshuang nodded, took out a silver ticket from his purse, and handed it to Zheng Sanguan,
"That Zhou Yunhe seemed to be alone, you asked someone to help him take care of the aftermath, and earned a good reputation, you should be able to withstand some losses. ”
As soon as his eyes lit up, Zheng Sanguan grinned, blocked the silver ticket with both hands, and praised it busily,
"The adults are kind-hearted, I don't need you to pay the money, I will do it myself, and I will definitely let the whole Jinling know, haha"
Pure profiteer, Tie Lingshuang shook his head, took back the silver ticket, and carried the iron gun out of the gate of the Zheng family, Qi Chen hurriedly poured tea, and made an appointment with Zheng Sanguan to drink and enjoy the flowers together, and chased out.
Catching up with the Vermilion Bird Bridge, seeing Tie Lingshuang holding an iron gun in the middle of the bridge and looking at the flower boats floating in the Qinhuai River, Qi Chen bared his teeth and smiled, and said softly,
According to the fat man Zheng, Zhou Yunhe is a slippery person with an unforgiving mouth, and often goes to the same store to dismantle the stage, especially the small shop opposite. ”
Flowers, birds, fish and insects?
The small shop with a closed door on the opposite side was called "Flowers, Birds, Fish and Insects", Tie Lingshuang thought of that couplet, could it be that the person who was with him hired someone to commit murder happened to hire a person with a sword? Is it such a coincidence?
If it weren't for the coincidence, the people in the small shop opposite couldn't get rid of the immortals, Tie Lingshuang turned his head to look at Qi Chen,
"When did that little shop open, and what does the owner look like?"
Scratching his head, Qi Chen closed his eyes and thought,
"That Zheng Fat Man said, he is an old man, he came from Yunnan ten years ago, his beard is snow-white, he has a scribe's face, he squints all day long, and everything he does is light. But recently, it seems to be said that he went back to his hometown to save his family, and it has not been opened. ”
When he opened his eyes, he saw Tie Lingshuang closing his eyes and thinking for a long time, and he didn't speak, Qi Chen could only look down at the flower boats, listening to the coquettish soft smiles coming from inside.
"Go to the Purple Air Building"
The voice sounded in his ears, Qi Chen turned around, and saw Tie Lingshuang's clothes fluttering, flying away in public, and sighed, this person doesn't take the rules too seriously.
The two of them went straight to Zhongshan, bypassed Zhongshan, saw Lingguxin Temple from a distance, and did not stop, running all the way to the foot of the east side of the mountain.
A faint neighing of horses came, and the two of them stood on a small high slope, looking ahead, at the foot of the hill on the east side to the outer city wall, enclosing a wide meadow.
As far as the eye can see, herds of horses of all colors are grazing in the horse farm, and near the city wall, a few small fences have been enclosed, faint shouts and cheers are heard, human figures are flashing, and fierce horses are raising their hooves, and they are taming horses.
Qi Chen turned around and looked south along the outer city wall, there was a city gate in the distance, people came and went, it should be the Xianhe Gate, and further away, there was another city wall, which was the Qilin Gate.
The guards of these two gates, Liu Ting of Qilin Gate, is the brother-in-law of Zheng Sanguan, and Cheng Kaishan of Xianhe Gate is the distinguished guest of today's banquet.
"There"
Seeing that Tie Lingshuang was still looking at the horses, Qi Chen reminded him loudly, Tie Lingshuang turned around and followed his finger to look, there was a lively venue between the Immortal Crane Gate and the Qilin Gate, and the two attics were the most obvious, and that was the Purple Qi Tower.
Nodding, the two swept down the slope and ran towards the Purple Cloud Pavilion.
When he arrived at the purple gas downstairs, Qi Chen glanced sideways at the attic opposite, the beauty was leaning on the railing, and the fragrant wind was gusting, which was the "warm jade pavilion" that Zheng Fatzi said.
Retracting his gaze, as Tie Lingshuang walked into the purple gas building, the lobby was noisy and smoky.
This is already an outer city, and between the two city gates, most of the people who came to drink were dressed in military uniforms, and the people in the hall were shouting and laughing and pouring wine, and when they saw Tie Lingshuang appear at the door, they suddenly lost their voice.
Suddenly holding the long sword at his waist, Qi Chen was a little at a loss, Tie Lingshuang glanced at the group of people, the corners of his eyes were contemptuous, and he didn't care, and glanced around.
Xiao Er hurriedly ran forward, raising a smiling face,
"Objectively inside please. ”
There was a jingling sound in his waist, Qi Chen watched Tie Lingshuang staring at Xiao Er, knowing that things were in trouble, the hand holding the hilt of the sword tightened slightly, and shouted at Xiao Er,
"Took us upstairs. ”
I saw a lot of people with knives and guns here, and Xiao Er was not ambiguous, leading the two upstairs, naturally he couldn't see these two people staring at him behind his back, and the light in his eyes flickered.
When he got upstairs, Xiao Er was about to lead the two of them to the nearest private room, but before he could open his mouth, Tie Lingshuang raised his hand and threw him a silver melon seed, and asked in a cold voice,
"Cheng Kaishan and Liu Ting, guarding the city gate, which room are they in today?"
The little second took the reward, smiled, and took the two of them all the way to the third floor, there are only two large rooms on the third floor, one is purple and the other is from the east.
Xiao Er led the two to Donglai Pavilion, Tie Lingshuang nodded, and said to him,
"All the top dishes in your store come up, and bring him a green vegetable noodle. ”
The little second looked at Qi Chen, who was speechless, with a strange expression, and saw that he didn't speak, so he naturally bowed down and said that he had gone downstairs.
Sighing, Qi Chen looked at Tie Lingshuang, reached out and took out the bronze smoke ball on his waist, and said,
"When Xiao Er approached downstairs, he thought about it, entered this room, and made another sound, what's going on?"
Tie Lingshuang sat down, Canglong cried blood and put it down against the table, closed his eyes and thought for a while, looked up at Qi Chen, the corners of his mouth raised,
"You go to the opposite building, walk around, and walk through every room to see if the bone bird is ringing. Hmph, here's the order. ”
Qi Chen, who looked embarrassed, suddenly grinned, sat down opposite her, reached out and took out his waist card, and pointed to the words on it,
"You are the east, I am the west, who said that you can order me, I will go to the Qinglou before I get married, how will I marry a daughter-in-law in the future. ”
Sneering, Tie Lingshuang looked at Qi Chen with disdain, and said impatiently,
"You go to the other side, the bone bird sounds, it means that the guards of the two doors are the most suspicious, it is very likely to be the jade slave, if it doesn't sound, wait a long time to check this little er." ”
After looking down and thinking for a while, Qi Chen pretended to be reserved and stood up, with a businesslike face, he didn't look at Tie Lingshuang, raised his feet and went out of the door, and went downstairs in a hurry.
About the time of tea, the sound of a puff sounded, Qi Chen rushed in, dressed in a fragrant breeze, and there were still some rouge marks on his neck, looking embarrassed, but his head kept nodding,
"It rang, and the two rooms, the room they both entered today, rang as soon as they entered. ”
Nodding, not taunting Qi Chen, Tie Lingshuang tapped his fingers on the table.
The breath leaked and contaminated the people, either there were monsters passing by in the past two days, or the monsters were near the city gate.
frowned slightly, so I can't tell, there are too many things today, and the knife has appeared, which means that the fairy mountain is nearby, and it is very likely to fly to the sky, is it necessary to wait for this monster?
One or two, if you think about it, it won't affect the take-off of Xianshan, or do you have to have this monster?
The sound sounded, before the person arrived, the fragrance had arrived, Tie Lingshuang put down his mind and prepared to fill in his stomach before thinking about it.
