Chapter 271: The Secret Behind It (I)
On the day of the moon, the cold moonlight sprinkled outside the Yumen Pass, the scattered woods cast a thin reflection, and the boundless desert looked even more lonely and empty under the illumination of the moonlight.
Under the shadow of the trees, two teams of people and horses faced each other in the path. On one side are dozens of lamas with low eyebrows and lowered eyes, and on the other side are Ye Boyu and two twittering women. Under the obstruction of Feng Gu, Liu Feixu could only shout in place, and could not go up to reason directly with the lama.
After a long time, even Liu Feixu couldn't bear it, and was about to sit down and fall asleep.
Finally, the old lama spoke: "Where are you from? Where are you going?"
Liu Feixu couldn't bear it anymore, and the old lama who listened to it took the initiative to speak, and hurriedly jumped up and said: "Old lama, you are blocking our way, and we should ask you this sentence." What the hell do you want to do?"
The old lama didn't even look at Liu Feiyu, nor did he stay on Ye Boyu, but just looked at Feng Gu.
Feng Gu looked at Ye Boyu, seeing that he was just standing calmly and calmly, not wanting to pay attention to it at all, so she raised her head and said loudly: "We settled in Yumen Pass, just went out to take a look at random, I don't know how to offend the masters?"
Feng Gu knew that Ye Boyu was powerful, but she also felt that Ye Boyu was outnumbered, and her own people were definitely not the opponents of these lamas, so they could only compromise now. Her words seemed to be humble, but in fact they were soft and hard, and she scolded these lamas for not taking care of other people's affairs.
A middle-aged lama behind the old lama suddenly raised his head, his eyes were different, he looked directly at Feng Gu, and shouted: "Not far from the Yumen Pass is the Gobi Desert, how many people go to the Gobi Desert in the middle of the night to play?"
Feng Gu's skills are far inferior to those of the lamas, and her body was shaken by the power of the middle-aged lama, and she took two deep breaths to stabilize her body, trying not to let her voice tremble, and said slowly: "A few of them are monks, what can we do if we still care?" Please get out of the way, otherwise, I will have to report to the official." ”
The old lama nodded lightly and said in a low voice: "What the female benefactor said is reasonable, and it is convenient for others and herself. If there is something difficult for the donor, we may be compassionate and may be able to help. ”
If it weren't for the fear that these lamas were powerful, Feng Gu would have swung her sword at each other a long time ago. Looking at the wrinkles on the old lama's face, he said impatiently: "Our dilemma is that you lamas have blocked the way, so that we can't go home." ”
The middle-aged lama raised his eyes when he heard this, his face was full of anger, and he was about to speak, but he was stopped by the old lama with a wave of his hand, and the old lama looked at Feng Gu and said in a low voice: "Yes, we blocked the way of several donors, and several donors are in a hurry to go home, so please do it." He turned to one side and moved out of the way behind him.
The old lama got out of the way, and the other lamas behind him all turned around and gave way.
Feng Gu didn't expect these lamas to let go of herself so easily, she looked at the lamas in front of her in disbelief, and then turned her head to look at Ye Boyu on the side, Ye Boyu pretended to be scared, and said urgently: "Quick, let's go home quickly." ”
Feng Gu was helpless, so she had to pull Liu Feifu with one hand, walk in front quickly, and leave the lamas behind her in a few steps, and Ye Boyu followed behind the two unhurriedly.
After turning a few corners and entering the Yumen Gate, she could no longer see the lama in the distance, so Feng Gu breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice: "I have a secret place in the city, why don't we go there first and rectify things a little, how about it?"
Liu Feixu had no idea. As soon as Ye Boyu wanted to refine the blood lotus as soon as possible and treat Meng Yao's injuries, and as soon as he wanted to find out the secrets of these lamas and Ling Yun's whereabouts, he nodded and agreed.
At this time, there was no one on the cold street, walked through the long bluestone street, and came to a high wall made of yellow sandstone, next to the high wall is a dilapidated courtyard, but it is made of loess mud, this is the secret place that Feng Gu said.
In fact, Yumen Pass is full of yellow sandstone and loess mud houses, rich people are using yellow sandstone to build high-walled compounds, small families without money, so they have to use yellow mud adobe to make houses, anyway, there are yellow sand and yellow mud everywhere, inexhaustible.
Feng Gu's home is hidden in these countless adobe houses, and of course it is very secret. The dilapidated courtyard wall was not locked, Feng Gu pushed open the wooden door and entered the courtyard, Ye Boyu and Liu Feixu also followed. There was a small patio in the courtyard, and in front of it was a yellow mud hut, Feng Gu pushed open the door of the hut, stretched out her hand, and made a gesture of please.
Ye Boyu looked at Liu Feifu and motioned for Liu Feifu to enter the house. Liu Feifu shook his head and entered the house. I thought the house was also in tatters, dirty and messy. Who knows, as soon as you enter the house, you will know that the inside and outside of the house are simply two worlds.
After more than ten days of running and tiredness, I saw either ice and snow or desert yellow sand for several days, and saw the delicate paulownia bed and silk quilt, Liu Feifu cheered and fell on the big bed.
This room is completely arranged according to the pattern of Jiangnan, and inside the wooden door is a delicate beaded curtain, each string of beads is crystal clear, the size of a thumb, and emits a soft light.
In the middle of the house is the landscape axis of the famous artist, under the calligraphy and painting, there are two wide Taishi chairs and rosewood strips, the bonsai on the strip is a Taihu Lake stone, the cloud steam fog cover, as if it is a cloud and mist.
On the other side of the room is a delicate bedroom, the paulownia bed in the bedroom is eight feet square, and the soft white silk quilt makes the tired willow fly is really irresistible.
On the other side of the room, in the middle of which was a huge table of eight immortals, which occupied almost the entire room on one side, it was dark and shiny, and it was not ordinary at first glance. The tea set on the table is as white as mutton fat, scattering a soft light, Ye Boyu and Liu Feifu are people who know the goods, and they know at a glance that this set of tea sets is the top grade in Tang Bai glaze, and it is truly valuable.
Seeing this room full of extravagant furnishings, Liu Feixu couldn't help but exclaim: "Sister Feng, I can't imagine how luxurious your home is, why do you have such a luxurious home in this inconspicuous place?"
Aunt Feng shook her head, smiled, and said: "My sister Feixu, your sister Feng Gu has been in the snow lotus business for most of her life, this business is purely a bloody business, whether you can make money or not, not to mention, there is still a danger of dying at any time, so if you have a little money, you will eat and drink it immediately, and there is no money to stay." Besides, now that the Snow Lotus business is occupied by those lamas, we retail investors can only secretly do underground business, and we have no money at all, so we can buy these things with the money. ”
"That's strange, everything in this house is worth a thousand gold, so how did you get it?" asked Liu Feixu, tilting his head.
Aunt Feng first asked Ye Boyu to sit down, simply boiled water on the stove, and then looked back at Liu Feifu lying on the bed, shook her head and smiled: "It's really a big lady, squeamish." ”
"Sister Fenggu, people have followed you for so many miles, and there are icebergs and snow, and now you are still laughing at you when you lie down, it's true. Liu Feixu pouted.
Ye Boyu didn't have to be polite, he sat on the sandalwood Taishi chair, picked up the white-glazed tea bowl, and slowly tasted the tea poured by Feng Gu without saying a word.
"Ye Gongzi, sister Feixu. Feng Gu sat opposite Ye Boyu and said in a low voice: "The two are the life-saving benefactors below, I really don't dare to hide them anymore, Feng Gu is just my fake name, and my real name is Huang Fengying, and she is the deputy general under the command of General Xu Da, the leader of the rebel army." ”
Ye Boyu was also taken aback, although he had doubts about Feng Gu's true identity, but because Feng Gu was a lowly cultivator, he didn't dig deeper, but he didn't expect it to be General Xu Da's adjutant general.
Liu Feixu opened his mouth even wider, turned over and sat up from the bed, looked Feng Gu up and down carefully, and then said: "Sister Feng Gu, I really didn't expect you to be so powerful, you are the general of the righteous army. ”
Feng Gu looked at Liu Feixu and the two, her face turned red, and she said in a low voice: "I have been hiding it for the past few days, and I hope you two will not be surprised." ”
As soon as Feng Gu's words fell, Liu Feixu said loudly: "What are you weird! You are the deputy general of the righteous army, but you are accused of killing gods, and you must defend against people, how can you tell others casually, this is also human nature, besides, haven't you already told us now?"
Ye Boyu also nodded and said, "Aunt Feng, you don't have to blame yourself, you quickly close the jade gate, and tell us what you know." ”
"yes. Liu Feixu also came to his senses and said loudly: "In this small jade gate, there are several groups of people who are elusive, what is the secret? Sister Fenggu, you can tell us quickly." ”
Feng Gu nodded and said in a low voice: "Ye Gongzi, Miss Liu, maybe I shouldn't ask, but you two are my lifesavers, and I shouldn't hide anything." Actually, I have already seen that you two are not ordinary people, and although I don't know which faction you two are now, I firmly believe that you are definitely not a faction of the imperial court. ”
Ye Boyu nodded and did not speak. Liu Feixu looked at Ye Boyu, then at Feng Gu, her lips moved, and she didn't speak.
Feng Gu didn't seem to care about the attitude of the two, and continued: "As long as it's not a person from the imperial court, it's a friend of our rebels. Since they are friends, and it is such a critical moment, I have the courage to bring the two of them to my secret room.
Ye Gongzi, Miss Liu, although this Yumen Pass is small, but it has been an important place for soldiers since ancient times, countries outside the pass, although there are no garrisons, but all countries have secret agents here, there may be more than a dozen countries, or even dozens of countries, regardless of whether there is a war, the small Yumen Pass is always a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, in the depths of the night, in the streets and alleys, there is a battle of life and death all the time. ”
"Sister Feng, no, Sister Fengying. Liu Feixu interjected: "You mean, there are dozens of secret agents from dozens of countries in this Yumen Pass? Isn't this place more terrifying than the front-line battlefield?"
"This is the front-line battlefield, but the front-line battlefield where you can't see the smoke of gunpowder. Feng Gu smiled and said: "There is a life-and-death battle going on here every day, and now, aren't we under the surveillance of those vicious lamas? Also, Sister Feixi, if you want, you call me Sister Feng very kind." ”
