XXXVIII. And peace of mind

After fifteen or sixteen, although there are still many lanterns hanging on the street, the atmosphere of the New Year festival is much stronger.

The street of Tonglou was a little deserted early in the morning, and a shopkeeper removed the door panel, stood at the door and yawned against the cold, and glanced at the other side by the way.

"Linglong Fang opened a little late today." He said.

"Their stores are almost crowded during the holidays, so it's time to take a break." Another guy said.

The previous shop guy also knew that it was okay to take a break, but at first glance it was a little unaccustomed to not opening the door.

While the two were talking, one of them came galloping on horseback, looking very ordinary, but it was also a little scary in the empty street, and then stopped in front of Linglong Fang, knocking on the door.

"There's something to fix." He shouted, "It's urgent." ”

The door was knocked open, and before Guo Xiaoge could speak, people squeezed in.

This kind of panicked customer is also common in Linglong Fang, and the guy in the store opposite stretched his body, and he got used to it.

"Little green girl." Brother Guo whispered, "It's this ....."

The pheasant came out and saw the young man standing in the hall, the young man leaned against the counter, looked around lazily and casually, took a sip of tea in his hand, pouted and shook his head, as if he was very dissatisfied with the tea.

In this way, it doesn't look like a guest, but a bit like an acquaintance coming to the door.

"What do you need, guest officer?" The pheasant asked with a smile and a gesture of hospitality.

Zhu Chuan glanced at her, took out two letters from his sleeve with a flick of his hand, and slapped them on the counter.

"Letter from your lord." He said.

Then I saw that the faces of these two people changed suddenly.

Zhu Chuan smiled a little wickedly, let you pretend to look like a real businessman, scared!

He didn't say anything more, stood up straight with his hands, turned around to leave, and stretched out his hand again, grabbed a plate of dim sum that Guo Xiaoge had placed on the counter, and staggered out while throwing one into his mouth.

If he comes to eat theirs all day long, of course he will eat hers!

The pheasant and Guo Xiaoge froze until the sound of horses' hooves outside was far away, and then they reluctantly eased up, gasping for breath, and the pheasant rushed to the counter and grabbed the two letters.

……

……

Daylight has illuminated the room, but the workshop is still quiet.

Wei Dongjia held the letter and read it over and over again.

Qixing's letter was written very simply, that is, he was in the Metropolitan Inspectorate, everything was fine, and he claimed to be Lu Yi's sister to the outside world, and he would not be brought to Momen's side, and Momen's affairs would be temporarily handed over to the Wei Dongjia to deal with.

But it's not easy.

How can the words Inspector and An Hao be involved?

"It turns out that Miss Seven Stars really knows Huo Lian." Shopkeeper Lu exhaled lightly, "When Huo Lian passed through Xu Cheng, she was looking for Miss Seven Stars. ”

The pheasant shook her head: "I don't know, Miss never talks much about the past." ”

However, she hesitated for a moment, and a thought came to her mind, the last time Miss was injured and disappeared, Meng Xichang couldn't find any trace of Miss, and the group of people who hurt Miss couldn't find it, did Miss also hide in the Metropolitan Prosecutor's Division?

"However, there is another letter for Gao Xiaoliu." She said, holding another letter.

If he learns that the young lady is in the hands of the Metropolitan Inspector, the rich man is afraid that there will be a move, although now more than half of the control is still in his hands, but if he takes the opportunity to deprive the young lady of the head position, then the young lady really has nothing.

Although Gao Xiaoliu has always had a good relationship with Miss and has a lot of help, but in the end, it is father and son, and if the son knows, Lao Tzu will definitely know immediately.

"I can't hide it, but it's only a matter of time." Wei Dongjia said, "Since Miss wants to tell him, naturally she is not afraid. ”

The pheasant responded and put the letter close to him: "I'll go personally." ”

……

……

A lantern hangs in the rich man's room, slowly turning with the candle flame.

It's not unusual, it's a common marquee on the street.

The rich man sat on the bed and glanced at it from time to time.

"It's over, it's time to put it away." Zhike came in and said.

The rich man smiled and said, "What are you doing with it?" It's been hanging up, anyway, my son will send me a new one for the holidays next year. ”

Zhike also smiled: "Don't scold your son at this time?" ”

"As long as you don't mess with that young lady, my son is a good son." The rich man said, and asked, "After repairing the Stargazing Pavilion and building the lanterns, what will our head do next?" ”

Zhike said: "There has been no movement in the past few days, it is said that I am tired, and I want to rest well and have been in Linglong Fang." ”

The rich man sighed: "Maybe I will go out with a stand-in earlier." ”

That's right, anyway, the boss won't tell them what to do.

Too lazy to care about her.

The rich man asked, "Is there any movement in the things handed over by the five horses?" ”

Zhike nodded, and was about to say something, when there were footsteps outside, mixed with the voice of the old servant, "Childe, the master hasn't yet..."

Before he could say anything, the door was knocked open, Gao Xiaoliu rushed in with the cold wind, and the marquee hanging in the room shook for a while, and the figures and birds on it became messy.

"Childe, you-" Zhike said helplessly.

"Dad-" Gao Xiaoliu also shouted, and then saw the rich man sitting on the bed, and his voice changed, "Dad, you've woken up a lot lately." ”

The rich man sighed: "I'm dying, return to the light." ”

Gao Xiaoliu tugged at the corners of his mouth, and he didn't care about discussing this issue with his father for the time being, so he hurriedly said, "The head of the family was arrested by Huo Lian." ”

The rich man gasped.

"Look, look." "I knew she wasn't going to be honest," he said. ”

Zhike asked with a gloomy face: "When?" ”

Gao Xiaoliu sighed lightly: "It's spread all over the city." ”

The rich man and the acquaintance were stunned, how could it be that such a big thing spread all over the city but they didn't know it? So what is the significance of Momen in this capital?

Gao Xiaoliu heaved: "Anyway, on the night of the Lantern Festival, Huo Dudu heroically saved the beauty-" The rumors in the street market were vividly spoken.

The rich man and the acquaintance had strange faces.

"Lu Hanlin's sister?" Zhike asked, "When did she become Lu Hanlin's sister?" ”

Gao Xiaoliu waved his hand: "That's not important, as the sage said, there are always thousands of means and changes for us ink writers to walk in the world." Speaking of this, he sighed again, "Miss Seven Stars is really amazing, she is destined to be in charge." ”

The rich man pursed his lips and said, "Yes, this is really not important. ”

I thought that how long would this head be in office, and that a new tablet would be placed on the Momen altar so soon.

He looked at Zhike: "Since the head of the sect is in danger, I believe that she will be martyred and will not endanger our Momen, taking advantage of her thousands of identities to cover, immediately send orders everywhere to ....."

Before he finished his words, he was hurriedly interrupted by Gao Xiaoliu.

"Dad, what are you anxious about?" He said, "Miss Seven Stars isn't dead yet." ”

Zhike said: "Childe, it's too late when she dies, this is not the time to be emotional, even if it is the master who is arrested, you have to do it." ”

Gao Xiaoliu said: "But Miss Seven Star said that she was caught by Huo Lian on purpose, and she was going to pick up something from Huo Lian." He said and took out the letter and looked at it, "A sword ......"

"Six-foot sword!" The rich man stood up reluctantly and said.

Gao Xiaoliu, who was sitting in front of him, was caught off guard and was taken aback: "What sword?" ”

Seven Stars only told him not to worry and said to go get the sword, but didn't say much about the sword.

The rich man seemed to be happy and seemed to be suddenly: "I see, it turns out that the sword is in Huo Lian's hand." ”

Zhike was also stunned, and his expression could not hide his joy, and said to Gao Xiaoliu: "That sword is the sword of the first master, and I originally thought that it fell in the sword casting pool with the master. ”

The sword of the master? For the ink man, people are more important than things, so don't risk it for relics, Gao Xiaoliu originally thought that Qixing was doing this weird, but at this moment, seeing the expressions of his father and Zhike, he suddenly understood.

"Giant Order." He also reluctantly stood up and said.

The rich man looked at Gao Xiaoliu with a smile on his face: "That's right, Juzi Ling." The expression was a little relieved, "It turns out that our lady in charge still remembers what she wants to do, I thought she was really determined to be a craftsman." ”
