Chapter 558: Cause and Effect
Sanhua Niangniang stared up at him, motionless, with a serious expression, as if she had been moved by him, immersed in the pleasant scene he described.
stared at it for a long time, and finally spoke:
"What's in there?"
ββ¦β¦β
It seems that it was only a delusion beforehand.
Song You was silent for a moment and replied truthfully: "It is a place where people have fun and indulge in lust. β
"What is pleasure-seeking, indulgence in lust?"
"Children shouldn't know."
"Sounds fun!"
"The mortals of the world play."
"Seems to be fun!"
"Those who practice should not be mixed with it."
"What's that?"
"Sanhua Niangniang can only know when she grows up."
"Hmm......"
Sanhua Niangniang stared at him for a while, it was really not the first time she had been fooled by him, she didn't ask, just said: "Sanhua Niangniang wait to ask Yanzi!" β
"The swallow won't tell you either."
"How do you know?"
"Guess."
"Then the three-flower lady will come and see for herself at night!"
"It's not good for practice."

"Sanhua Niangniang collects curiosity." Song You shook his head, his expression was also very calm, "Let's go buy a melon to eat, Sanhua Niangniang think about it, on this hot day, let's buy a cold and sweet melon to sit in the shade of a tree, cut it in half, like a bowl, scoop it with a spoon to eat, watch the people in front of us, just sit here for half an afternoon, isn't it comfortable?" β
"Huh? Cut in half? β
"Yes."
"Like a bowl?"
"It's like a basin, half of us."
"Scoop it and eat it!"
"Scoop and eat."
This picture finally moved the little girl, and Sanhua Niangniang was successfully diverted.
That's all I have in my head for a while.
Cats are like this, their attention comes and goes quickly, and as soon as they move on to another thing, they immediately lose interest in what was going on, and even forget what they were talking about.
Maybe the brain is too small to fit one thing.
However, thinking about it, Sanhua Niangniang quickly found something wrong and tilted her head:
"But we don't have a spoon!"
The Taoist smiled slightly, but said to her:
"That's just a hand."
The tone was calm, as if he didn't care at all.
This immediately received the enthusiastic support of Sanhua Niangniang: "Use your hands well!" Only people use scoop chopsticks! β
"Yes......"
"Monkeys eat with their hands!"
ββ¦β¦β
A moment later, under a red willow tree.
Two figures, one large and one small, sat on the ground, regardless of the dust and sand on the ground, a golden reticulated melon was neatly cut in half from the middle, and it was not biased because of its size. One almost buried his head in the melon, gnawed hard with his front teeth, and raised his head from time to time to look at the people around him, and then at the pedestrians in front of him. One broke it into smaller pieces and gnawed it, also gnawing while looking at the various people in front of him, with exotic faces.
The melon is fragrant and sweet, and it is delicious.
Sanhua Niangniang couldn't help but turn her head to look at him, her face was full of juice, she felt that her nose was scraped a little painfully, she wanted to learn his movements, and also broke the melon into small pieces, and pinched the edge of the melon with her hands, but she gave up when she was about to exert herself, shook her head, and continued to bite hard.
It's obviously a little more fun that way.
When the length of her upper incisors was not long enough for her to nibble on the flesh of the melon, she had to press it hard to make her face and melon closer, so that she would get more juice and her nose hurt more.
Scraping from top to bottom, the nose suffered a great sin.
However, Sanhua Niangniang enjoyed it very much, and she also gnawed seriously, not caring about the eyes of pedestrians.
The caravan ahead was constantly coming and going, and there were many pedestrians, and they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at them, and what they seemed to see was the comfort and casualness of them at this time.
About an hour laterβ
Song You was eating melons, resting, and looking at the pedestrians in front of him, and finally finished eating this half of the melon.
The Sanhua Niangniang next to her was still gnawing on the skin, at this time her face was already full of juice, and there were still a few melon seeds, and there was not much meat on the melon, but she was still unwilling to stop, it seemed that she would not stop if she didn't gnaw this melon to only a thin layer of skin, but while gnawing and gnawing, she suddenly raised her head and turned her head to look at the other side.
At the same time, break off a piece and feed it to the swallows.
There was some faint movement over there.
Song You also turned his head and looked over.
I saw a group of people walking on that side of the street, and when the business travelers who were originally walking on the road saw it, they all hurriedly let go to the side of the road, and at the same time stopped by the side of the road to watch.
Something strange seems to happen.
As the group approached, the voices became clear, some of them crying, some of them yelling.
Even if it was someone who was closer to Song You, he heard the movement on that side, but everyone who could understand the local dialect seemed to understand what was happening, and without waiting for them to get closer, they let go to the side of the road and looked over.
Gradually, Song You also saw the group of people clearly.
At the forefront were two warriors from the Western Regions, wearing multi-colored clothes and leather boots, with their heads wrapped around their beards and scimitars at their waists, tall and strong, walking as they went.
Several men from the Western Regions behind him were all dressed luxuriously, wearing gold and silver, like local officials.
Behind them were two other samurai, escorted by a young woman in a cloth robe, with a beautiful face, a graceful figure, shackled hands and feet, crying as she went, refusing to go forward, and two samurai pushing her forward and scolding her.
It seems to be something in this country.
Song You frowned as he watched the group of people approach.
I felt something in my heart, as if I had a connection with it, but I couldn't understand the local language, and I couldn't figure out why.
ββ¦β¦β
The Taoist put down the melon peel and got up to look left and right.
I wanted to ask a merchant with a big Yan face, even a merchant with a face in the Western Regions was likely to understand Da Yan's words, but he saw a familiar face.
Bearded, pot-bellied, and carrying some vegetables in his hands, he is the owner of the carriage and horse shop.
Yes, it's not far from the carriage shop.
Song You did not hesitate and walked over.
Seeing this, the girl also took the melon skin and hurriedly got up to follow.
The swallow flapped its wings and followed.
"The shopkeeper."
Song You bowed to him and saluted.
"Hey, why are you here?" The shopkeeper looked at them and immediately smiled, not less enthusiastic because they were not businessmen, "Can't you find how to go back?" β
"I made an appointment with Gong Xie to hang out, they went to play somewhere else, so we came back alone and rested here." Song You paused for a moment, turned his head to look at the person walking forward, "I don't know what is going on, why would you escort a woman to the street?" β
"It's not a street parade. It was to be brought to the gate of the city and killed. The shopkeeper looked at the woman, "It's a pity for such a young woman." β
"What crime did she commit?"
"It was all the night before yesterday." The innkeeper said to him, "This woman is a maid in the palace, and she said that she was serving wine to our king, and she lost the wine jug, which was a wine jug that the Emperor of Da Yan had given to the king in the past, and the king liked it very much, and yesterday she searched for a day in the city, but she did not find it, and today she will be pulled out and killed." β
"I see......"
Song You immediately understood.
It turns out that the tie is here.
Those great monks were really full of lies.
The temple is fake, the monks are fake, and it is also false to say that the people of Yucheng know who took the things, and it is also false to say that they will leave gold and silver as a reward.
ββ¦β¦β
Song You couldn't help but turn around and rub Tong'er's head.
It turns out that I came out today not only to visit the Jade City and see the customs of the Jade City, but also to come but inadvertently owe the cause and effect the night before.
"May I ask the owner ......?"
"What?"
"Do the officials in Jade City speak Dayan?"
"The Jade Country is the Fan Kingdom of Dayan, and of course the officials and nobles of the palace will speak Dayan."
"The shopkeeper can stay here."
"What do you mean...... Hey, where are you going? β
The shopkeeper's eyes widened and he stared at him.
Everywhere the palace warriors passed, everyone was avoiding it, but only one Taoist walked out of the crowd and came to the middle of the road.
The samurai are domineering and have a lot of reprimands for people.
If it weren't for the Taoist being a big Yan face, I'm afraid he would have to draw a knife against each other.
Suddenly, the line stopped.
Everyone looked at it strangely.
"Below is the Daoist of Dayan, that is, the cultivator of Dayan, who traveled here, and heard that a treasure was lost in the Yucheng Palace, and happened to know where to go, so he came to help the monarch find it, and please forgive me for the crime of collision."
ββ¦β¦β
The samurai didn't understand his words and looked back at the official.
Instead, several officials stepped forward.
"Who are you?"
"Da Yan Daoist, surnamed Song Mingyou." Song You didn't talk nonsense with him, he only took out two books from his arms and handed them out, "There are Da Yan's Du Mu and Shazhou Zhizhou's handwritten book." β
Several officials immediately gave up an official who could read Dayan's characters, took the handwritten book and looked at it.
Seeing that it was really the autograph of the governor of Shazhou, it was stamped with the official seal, and the words were quite respectful, and several people immediately respected Song You.
"Your Excellency knows where my king's lost treasures have gone?"
"It was stolen by demons outside the city."
"That's the wine jug that Emperor Dayan gave to my king, this can't lie!"
"But a flask, a silver jug of gold, inlaid with red and green rubies? And three more cups, all of the same style? β
"Hey! Do you really know? β
"I've seen it down there, and I know where it is."
Song You remembered that he had drunk a small half pot of wine at that time, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Glancing at the woman next to him who was in tears and only put all her expectations on him, he didn't say anything like "I know that it was a monster, why do you want to anger a maid", but said to the official in a gentle tone: "Since it was done by a monster, if you can find it back in the future, please play the king of the Ming Kingdom and spare this innocent maid." β
"Do you really know where it is?"
"Outside the West City Gate, walk along the main road for forty miles, there is a mountain on the right, the meadow on the mountain is just the same as the forest, and the foot is quickly send someone to the mountain to look for it, maybe you can find it, but you are afraid of losing it."
"What if you can't find it?"
"Within a month, we will try to find it in the next place."
"Your Excellency is so confident?"
"Just do your best."
The official stood in place, thought for a moment, and then turned around and muttered to the others, as if they were discussing, and then decided: first send a warrior to the palace to report to the king, and then send another warrior to ask him to immediately take people to the mountain of Song You's to look for him.
