Out of the ghost city of Xudu, Li Xuanbai and the three of them came all the way to the nearest Yellowstone City. I was very tired this night, and I hurriedly wanted to find an inn to rest and rest. But the only entanglement on his body was squandered in Yicheng. I had no choice but to look at the woman in black beside me who still refused to reveal her name.

The woman in black was bold, didn't say anything, took out a piece of silver and threw it to the shopkeeper.

Li Xuanbai was not polite, he was sleepy, so he followed the shopkeeper Xiao Er upstairs first. Leaving Fei Yu and the woman in black to look at each other.

......

Today is the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. The Double Ninth Festival of the Great Chu Dynasty. According to the book "Ji Qiu Ji" handed down in the pre-Qin era, it is recorded that nine is the number of yang, and the sun and the moon correspond together, so it is called "Chongyang".

The night of the Chung Yeung Festival in September also comes sooner. The moon is also fuller.

Li Xuanbai slept all day, and at night he was a little hungry. He got up and walked out of the wing room and into the courtyard of the backyard. When I looked up, I saw a figure sitting on the eaves of the backyard, drinking wine.

Li Xuanbai got closer, only to find that it was the woman with a pair of narrow and narrow Danfeng eyes.

Tonight, she didn't wear a sword, and she didn't wear a black veil.

Under the hazy moonlight, she is like a fairy with a floating temperament. Take the wine down to earth.

The woman with phoenix eyes noticed that someone was watching her under the eaves, and when she found out that it was Li Xuanbai, a smile suddenly appeared on her cold face.

That's really looking back and smiling.

Li Xuanbai was afraid that it was an illusion, so he rubbed his eyes.

"Come up and drink with me. Before Li Xuanbai finished his trance, the voice of the Danfeng-eyed woman came.

Li Xuanbai looked at the two-zhang high roof. Cornices point to the sky. Just as I was thinking about how to go up, I happened to see a wooden ladder next to it. He climbed up the wooden ladder to the eaves, and cautiously walked to the Danfengyan woman and sat down.

"Why do you want to ask me for a drink, so you are not afraid that I will do something to you?" Li Xuanbai looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, and looked up and down wantonly without concealment. When he saw the bumpy part, his eyes widened and he looked straight at it. He said, "This figure is really wonderful." ”

The woman with phoenix eyes did not look at each other angrily as Li Xuanbai imagined, but smiled charmingly, and asked softly, "Am I beautiful?"

Li Xuanbai subconsciously replied: "Beautiful." ”

The woman with phoenix eyes took a big sip of wine, and she was so bold.

"Li Xuanbai. Don't pretend to be that kind of dog or horse in front of me. Annoying very. The woman with red phoenix eyes suddenly changed, and her tone was very disgusted.

Li Xuanbai didn't care, and he didn't follow her words. She said that she pretended to be pretended. So what. snatched the jar of wine from the Danfengyan woman's wine, poured a sip, and shouted 'happy'. Looking at the full moon on the night of Chongyang, he said slowly: "Why are you so abnormal tonight, it's not Chongyang lovesickness, thinking of your relatives." ”

Dan Fengyan heard the word "relatives", and her eyebrows frowned and stretched out.

Li Xuanbai didn't notice the slight change in the woman with Danfeng eyes, but just sighed: "With your character, this sad thing is not like what you did. I definitely drank too much. Hehe. ”

Li Xuanbai saw that Dan Fengyan did not respond to him, and said with an evil smile: "In the past, when I was in Luoyang, Kyoto, every year during the Double Ninth Festival, I had to take a group of evil slaves to the famous mountain and river to travel and enjoy the scenery, and climb high and overlook. Don't get me wrong, this son's trip is not to miss his family and friends. I just want to take advantage of the festive day to see if there is a beautiful woman who meets the vision of my son. If you run into it, drag it back to the house directly, warm your hands and make incense. That's pleasant. ”

Dan Fengyan snorted lightly.

Li Xuanbai smiled shamelessly: "Woman." After all, I still have to go around the bed to make plums. Dancing with knives and guns every day, wouldn't it be a pity to have that mutton fat and jade skin. You, if you know how to be amorous, fiddle with that graceful figure. It must be comparable to Daji, who brought disaster to the country and the people. It's a pity for your talking autumn eyes. ”

Dan Fengyan didn't seem to be able to stand Li Xuanbai's straightforward and frivolous words, glared at him fiercely, and said gloomily: "Hmph." If you talk any more nonsense, I will cut out your tongue. ”

Li Xuanbai was not afraid, looked at her autumn eyes and smiled: "Today is the Double Ninth Festival." It's not good to fight and kill. Have you forgotten what the elders said? During the Double Ninth Festival, you can wear dogwood, eat tent bait, and drink chrysanthemum wine, so that you can seek longevity. For thousands of years, no one has ever lived a real life. But this chrysanthemum wine is still good. As he spoke, he pointed to the jar of chrysanthemum wine in Dan Fengyan's hand.

Dan Fengyan didn't know whether he believed Li Xuanbai's nonsense, or if he really wanted to drink. I drank all the chrysanthemum wine in one gulp. He took two more altars and threw one to Li Xuanbai.

Li Xuanbai caught it.

The two of them drank like this, and neither of them spoke.

When the wine in the jar was halfway gone, Dan Fengyan suddenly opened his mouth first and said, "Li Xuanbai." I have to admit that you are better than those hypocrites who are full of righteousness and morality. But it's still annoying. ”

Danfeng's words were harsh, but Li Xuanbai was not angry. A wicked smile appeared on the handsome face under the moonlight. He suddenly leaned into Danfeng's ear and whispered, "Do you really think of me Li Xuanbai as a fool?" Although I don't know why you want to get close to me in every possible way, I am very unhappy. Women don't have to be too smart. ”

As he spoke, Li Xuanbai's right hand tightly grasped Danfengyan's fragrant shoulder and rubbed it, and blew gently into her ear.

Danfeng's eyes and body couldn't help but tremble. I don't know if I was shocked by Li Xuanbai's words or by his frivolous movements.

The woman with the red phoenix eyes pushed Li Xuanbai away and said coldly to him, "What do you mean?"

Li Xuanbai sniffed the aroma in his hand and said with a smile: "My son has never believed in fate. This world is so big that this son meets you twice in one day. Wouldn't that be too coincidental. In fact, with your skills, those ruffians in Yicheng can't get close to you at all. With your wit and cultivation, you won't find that someone is following you, and I'm afraid the only explanation is that you deliberately let them follow you, in fact, to lure us in. ”

Li Xuanbai saw that Dan Fengyan did not explain, and continued: "You know that I, Li Xuanbai, have always had pity for beautiful women. The first time he appeared at the Kelai Xiang Inn was to get the attention of his son. The second time at the city gate, you deliberately let the ruffians see you. so that they may be satisfied. That's when I really started to doubt you. But Ben Gongzi is a little curious?"

"Oh?" Dan Feng looked at Li Xuanbai with meaningful eyes.

Li Xuanbai spit out his doubts and said: "The trip to the capital, this son is a little strange. Previously, this son thought you were a traitor to Zhu Yan. In order to kill this son, you will use yourself as bait, and even throw away your own life. But in Xudu, you can kill us. But you're saving us? This makes Ben Gongzi very strange. And the only thing I can't figure out. I don't know if I can explain it to my son. ”

The woman with Danfengyan took a sip of wine and slowly replied, "Li Xuanbai, you really surprised me. It's a pity for you to be a child of anointing people who will be scolded by the world. ...... The Zhu Yan in your mouth has nothing to do with me. As for the trip to the ghost town of Xudu, it was something I didn't expect. I didn't plan to take you to Xudu. Don't forget, it's you who have to follow. But you guessed it right, I deliberately lured you into the bait. ”

Li Xuanbai sneered, "How did you know that we would appear in Yicheng?"

The woman with Danfengyan replied: "Three years ago, the son of Tian Song, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, died in the moat, and that incident caused a lot of uproar. There are also many folk sayings. But a few days ago, Tian Song was suddenly beheaded by the emperor. I guess it has something to do with you. As for why you would know that you would appear in Yicheng. Very simple. The moment you descend from the Longling Mountains, I will follow you. ”

Li Xuanbai was surprised by the intelligence of this red-phoenix-eyed woman, and tried to regain her composure and said, "Why do you want to follow us?"

"To check someone. Dan Fengyan did not hide it, and replied directly.

"To find someone?"

"That's right. I know that when Emperor Gaozu established the Great Chu Dynasty, in order to prevent people in the rivers and lakes from rebelling and banning them by force, he specially created a secret organization to monitor people and things in the rivers and lakes. After the death of Emperor Gaozu, this secret organization was taken over by your Li family. I need to borrow it. ”

"Who to check?" Li Xuanbai didn't delve into how she knew this. With her skills, it is not difficult to know this.

"You don't need to know that. Dan Fengyan refused to answer.

Li Xuanbai played with taste: "If this son refuses, will you kill me?"

Dan Fengyan said directly: "Before going to Xudu, I will." Now ......"

"Now you won't, or you wouldn't have told me so much. ...... Let's make a deal. Li Xuanbai interrupted.

"What deal?" Dan Feng asked with a worried look on his face.

Li Xuanbai glanced at the charm on the chest of the woman with Danfeng eyes, and said with a smile: "Don't worry." I don't dare you warm my bed. I don't feel at ease with my head hanging from my sword. My son's condition is to stay by my side and protect me until you find the person you are looking for?"

Dan Fengyan said disdainfully: "I didn't expect Li Xuanbai to be a person who is afraid of death." ”

Li Xuanbai patted his chest and said worriedly: "I, Li Xuanbai, am very afraid of death." Say yes or not? ”

Danfeng took the last sip of wine and said slowly, "Okay." I promise you. ”

Li Xuanbai laughed, and seemed to have made the biggest deal. Suddenly, something came to mind again, and he squinted his eyes and smiled, "Let me ask you one last question." What's your name?"

The Danfeng-eyed woman thought for a while and replied, "You can just call me Qiu Xiang." ”

After saying that, he jumped and disappeared under the moonlight.

Li Xuanbai recalled Danfengyan's last sentence, "Autumn fragrance". What an interesting name and an interesting woman. looked at the only remaining chrysanthemum wine in his hand. Drink it all in one gulp. Then humming a little song, he staggered down the eaves.

There was a song outside the inn: September 9, drinking chrysanthemum wine, people are drunk with chrysanthemums.
