When the beginning of summer comes, the warm wind in May gusts, the lotus pond is green, and the frogs and cicadas are singing.

At this time, Liu Ruyan was wearing a thin silk round-necked robe, and the green silk was tied with willow hairpins.

Near her, Jin Buchang walked side by side, shaking an ivory folding fan in his hand, fanning the breeze slowly.

The shouting along the streets was endless, and the peddlers and pawns were in a hurry.

This is a city located on the border of the Song Kingdom, because of its proximity to the south, the climate is warm and pleasant, and you can see red and willow green everywhere.

But Liu Ruyan's expression was condensed, obviously not thinking about enjoying the scenery.

In order to hide people's eyes, she and Jin Buyi pretended not to know each other, and the two walked not far away, and then she "seemed" to be attracted by the street stalls, picking and choosing among the stalls, and secretly viewing the scene within a hundred steps through the recording system.

Jin Buchang continued to walk forward, came to the corner of the street, and stood still.

There is a teahouse there.

He walked through the hall, exchanged a code word to the shopkeeper, and handed over the box in his hand.

After the shopkeeper received the things, he handed him a sealed bamboo tube, and Jin Buchang put it in his sleeve pocket with great preciousness, and walked out of the teahouse.

Liu Ruyan stood in front of the stall, staring closely at the crowd passing at the door of the teahouse, at this time, the Gu worm used to track in the bottle became restless again, and she felt a pang in her heart, just in time to see a gray-shirted man step out of the teahouse and walk towards the end of the street in Fang City.

She secretly followed the gray-shirted man.

The market is crowded, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going. The man in the gray shirt seemed to be walking with a swift footstep.

Liu Ruyan wrinkled her eyebrows and followed all the way behind.

From time to time, a pedestrian approached her, blocking her vision, and she pushed the pedestrian away and hurriedly chased after her.

Liu Ruyan had never been so eager, she walked twenty steps away from the man, so as not to lose her target.

That is, until a porter pushing a loaded cart across the street and just in front of her.

Liu Ruyan immediately turned on the system and continued to stare at the man's whereabouts through the camera screen.

The man in gray was getting farther and farther away from her, and seeing that she was about to lose a trace, she glanced at the cart in front of her, and with the strength under her feet, she jumped over the roof of the cart with one hand and ran towards the end of the street.

And the man in gray is like a drop of water into the sea, and he will never be found again.

On the street, there is a tide of people everywhere, and people with similar backs abound.

Liu Ruyan kept walking, releasing the flying insects in the bottle while continuing to walk forward. She followed the guidance of the flying insects to the end of the alley, and the surrounding people gradually became sparse, like a private house.

When the gray-shirted man came to a house, he knocked on the wooden door, no more, no less, exactly seven times.

Footsteps were soon heard in the courtyard.

The wooden door was open a crack, and he could only see a hand sticking out of it, palm up, and a bag of money placed in the palm print.

The gray-shirted man hurriedly thanked him, and immediately picked up the money bag while presenting the box, turned around and left.

The man behind the door held the iron box, passed through the wall, and finally entered the hall.

The entourage held his hand forward and said, "Young master, Jin Buchang sent the Xuankun seal as promised." ”

The attendant bowed down, bowed his head and stood still, the wheelchair gradually approached in his sight, and a plain-colored corner of his clothes was reflected in his eyes, and then his hand was empty, and the box was taken away.

"I don't know what the young master's plans are for Wangfeng Tower, I heard that because Qin Chuan missed, the landlord refused to cooperate with us again."

After a while, an indifferent voice came from his ears: "If the landlord is unwilling, you don't have to force it, just change the landlord." ”

The entourage's face changed slightly, so what he meant......

Kill!

The retinue will know.

"How's it going in the northwest?" The man in the cloth had a faint voice.

"Yu Langjun, there has been no action over there, and his subordinates are speculating on their own, and it is estimated that they are repentant."

"The Great Song Dynasty military generals are called emperors, in view of the seizure of power by the former dynasty and the troubled times for a long time, the new emperor of the Song Kingdom will definitely take action, and at that time, they can't help but make a decision."

Talk about two ends.

Liu Ruyan followed the flying insect to a private house, and she leaned into the closed courtyard door, and there was no movement inside.

Coming to the root of the wall, she climbed over the wall and entered the hospital.

The grass and trees planted in the courtyard were obviously taken care of, and she walked lightly to the base of the wall.

In the hall, the plain-clothed boy held up the jade seal, and a familiar fragrance lingered, "It's tracking incense." ”

The entourage was surprised, how could there be tracking incense in the Central Plains!

At the same time, Liu Ruyan tried to view the scene in the house with the help of the recording system.

To her surprise, this time the system failed again, and it seemed that the people in the house were really suspicious.

She took a deep breath and crept into the hall, leaning her back against the lattice, listening intently for a moment, then poking through the window paper and leaning into the room.

The room was empty, the incense burner was burning with green smoke, a few pieces of fragrant tea were lying at the bottom of the cup, the tea was yellow, and the fragrance of tea was not dispersed.

She went to a few more houses in the surrounding area, but there was still no one to be seen.

Liu Ruyan returned to the lobby and tried the tea with her hands, but there was still residual warmth, it seemed that there were still people here not long ago.

But people can't disappear into thin air.

Unless...... There is a secret door hidden in the hall.

She searched the room and eventually found a secret door under the table.

Liu Ruyan walked down the dark road to the end and found that it was the Fangshi Street that she had come to before.

The people were busy running, and there was a vast sea of people everywhere.

Liu Ruyan hurriedly took out the white bottle and released the last few flying insects, but when she saw the black insects lingering, her heart sank suddenly.

The tracking incense is no longer working......

She smiled bitterly, her hands hung weakly, and the white bottle in her palm slammed to the ground along her fingertips.

Liu Ruyan raised her head suddenly, the clouds above her head were dense, and the heavy clouds were like spread out ink, boundless, covering the last ray of light, and the wind hit her like a whip, but it was far less than the pain in her heart.

"Boom—" thundered overhead.

She walked aimlessly.

On both sides of the street, hawkers hurriedly packed up their stalls, and pedestrians were in a hurry.

Until the raindrops fell with the thunder, fell on the roof tiles, fell on the ditches, and rippled in circles.

The raindrops wet the eyelashes and fell mercilessly down the face.

She blinked, her vision still hazy.

In the midst of the storm, she vaguely saw a man knocked down by pedestrians, crawling on the streets of Fangshi, his clothes covered with mud spots, looking very embarrassed.

The pedestrian bowed in apology, then hurried away.

Liu Ruyan came behind the man, saw him turn around in a hurry, and unexpectedly saw the "young man" behind him. Xu thought that he looked embarrassed, and he got up with a cramped face.

The muddy water on the tips of his hair stained his face and was mottled with dots, and he seemed to feel nothing, and walked past her step by step.

Liu Ruyan stretched out her hand and stopped the other party.

The man looked at her in a daze, followed her gaze to the palm of her hand, which was a plain white handkerchief.

He heard her say, "My face is dirty. ”

He wiped his face with his hand, and there were a lot of mud marks on his face, and he hurriedly thanked him.

"This veil ......," he opened his mouth, the handkerchief was stained by him, and it was not appropriate to return it, "how about I buy this veil?" ”

Liu Ruyan shook her head: "It's just a handkerchief, it's not valuable, it's just a gesture." ”

The man hurriedly crossed his hands and saluted, "Thank you, little brother." ”

Liu Ruyan bowed her head slightly, and walked away.
