The two sons who were out hunting soon returned to the village, and Mo Qingyan told them the doubts in his heart.

The eldest son, Mo Huan, said that he heard that the five elders of Qingcheng were investigating the whereabouts of Nie Zhangmen in the Zhenjiang area, so he could ask them to come and discuss and find out the truth. Mo Qingyan thought it was good, so he ordered Mo Huan to immediately contact the disciples of the Qingcheng Sect and invite the five masters to come over.

Here, Mo Qingyan asked his son to invite the five elders of Qingcheng, and Mrs. Zhou was marrying in Zhangluo over there. Livestock, wine and meat were constantly brought into the village, and lanterns and candles were everywhere. Seeing that the wedding date was approaching, Huo Xing'an became more and more at a loss. In the past few days, he always felt as if he was being watched by the Zhuang people, and there were servants to follow him wherever he went, even Mrs. Zhou came to ask for warmth from time to time, and Mo Lan was even more Yan around his side.

One day, he walked outside the village and pretended to stop to watch the birds. The two doormen greeted him with a smile, but their eyes did not leave for a moment. He noticed an old servant who had just returned from washing clothes by the river, and that was the man he was looking for.

When he saw the old servant coming towards the village, he went over to help her carry the burden. The old servant was flattered and said, "How dare you Lao Xing'an, please let go." ”

Xing'an said: "Seeing that my mother-in-law is struggling, help you carry it, I used to carry it often." He asked the old servant in a low voice, "Mother-in-law, I see you washing outside the village every day, have you ever seen Miss Yue'er leave the village?"

"Miss Yue'er?"

"Yes, it's the girl who came with me. ”

"Oh," said the old servant, glancing at him, and whispering, "she sat out of the woods and wept all the day, and I saw that she was pitiful, and wanted to speak to her, but she got up and went away, and went out of the village alone. ”

"Just gone, and no one left her?"

The old servant nodded: "Not long after she left, a kid in the village rode a horse and went out, with a small baggage, I don't know if he went to chase her." ”

"Oh......"

Huo Xingan sent her into the village, and the two villagers hurried over and took the burden. The old servant's words made Huo Xingan feel sad for a while, and when he thought of that scene, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. Taking advantage of the people's inattention, he stuffed a large ingot of silver into the old servant, and asked her to ask the Zhuang people, maybe anyone knew where Yue'er had gone.

On the evening of the same day, the old servant secretly told Huo Xing'an that a shopping village had recently seen a girl in Jiankang's silk shop, very similar to Yue'er, and before he could carefully identify it, the girl got into a sedan chair.

Hearing this, Huo Xing'an was even more worried. I thought to myself, if Lan Yue hadn't left here, there must be a reason. He was anxious to find out, so he decided to go to Jiankang to find Nalan Yue, this idea came without thinking, and he didn't care about Mo Lan's feelings, so he went directly to the stable to take Houfu.

Zhuang Ding had already gone to inform Mo Qingyan. When Huo Xingan wanted to beat the horse out of the village, he heard Mo Qingyan shouting behind him.

Huo Xingan said to Mo Qingyan who came over: "I'll go back when I go." ”

"Prince Xing'an stays first!" Mo Qingyan blocked the way, "What's the matter, let the people in Zhuangzi do it, why do it yourself?"

Huo Xingan didn't know what to say, let alone say that he was going to find Nalan Yue.

Mo Qingyan smiled and held the horse's head: "If you really want to go, let Lan'er go with you, and bring a few more Zhuang Ding." When a big event is approaching, the virtuous son-in-law goes out by himself, for fear of a mistake. Mo Qingyan was worried that Huo Xing'an would ride away, so he directly called his son-in-law.

"This, don't bother with Master Mo, I just want to do one thing......"

"Besides, the virtuous son-in-law and the little girl already have the status of husband and wife, and you have to talk to the little girl when you go out, Lan'er cares about you so much, I'm afraid she will worry. ”

Mo Qingyan said this, and Huo Xingan had to get off the horse. "Then I'll go talk to Sister Lan. ”

Mo Qingyan nodded, and walked towards the village with Huo Xingan. Just when he saw his second son Mo Yan also coming, Mo Qingyan glanced at Mo Yan and asked, "Where is Lan'er?"

Mo Yan said: "Write an invitation in the library building." ”

"Oh," Mo Qingyan said to Huo Xing'an, "Then let's go this way." ”

Mo Qingyan took Huo Xing'an to a hut. Huo Xing'an glanced at the room and thought to himself how this small house could be called a library building, and it was almost the same as a firewood room.

Mo Qingyan pushed open the door and invited Huo Xingan in. The door leaf seemed to be extremely heavy, rumbling and rattling. Huo Xing'an entered the house, but saw that the four walls were empty, and Lan'er was inside. Just as he was wondering, the door closed behind him. He called out to Master Mo, and then went to push the door, but the door did not move.

Mo Qingyan said outside: "The virtuous son-in-law is a little restless. ”

Because he was unwary of Mo Qingyan, Huo Xingan was also defenseless. I was suddenly locked up in this hut, and I felt very shocked. I thought to myself, Master Mo Zhuang is too careful, he must be afraid that I will say goodbye like Nalan Yue. "Master Mo, I, Huo Xing'an, will not say goodbye. ”

"Offended!" Mo Qingyan hugged his fists.

Huo Xingan looked at the departing Mo Qingyan and others from the window, and slammed the wall angrily, the wall echoed dullly, it was not rammed with mud, but made of iron plates and solid stones. He tore off the torn paper from the window, the pane was very wide, but even a three-year-old child had to use bone reduction to barely get through, and the pane was also cast of iron, and the whole window was a piece of openwork iron.

Mo Lan learned that Mo Qingyan had locked Huo Xingan in an iron house, so she hurriedly found Mo Qingyan and asked him why he did this.

Mo Qingyan said that it was for her good, and she was afraid that Huo Xingan would run away.

Mo Lan said that the prince of Xing'an would not run away, and he would definitely let Huo Xing'an go. She was worried that Huo Xing'an would hold a grudge against herself.

In fact, Mo Qingyan had other plans. He didn't know the bottom of Huo Xing'an's kung fu, and he was afraid that he and his second son would not be able to deal with him if they joined forces, so he made this decision. He couldn't stop comforting Mo Lan, saying that when it came to the big wedding, after the marriage, Huo Xing'an would understand the good intentions of his father-in-law, and he would definitely not hold grudges. Mo Lan stomped her feet anxiously, but she was helpless.

Mo Lan came to Huo Xing'an's iron house, and saw Huo Xing'an's tense face and speechless, and he was very uneasy. She grabbed Huo Xing'an's hand holding the pane and said, "Prince Xing'an, don't be angry." My dad thought you were going to be gone...... I begged my father, but he didn't listen, and he had to wait until the wedding time to let you out. She looked at him distressedly, Lan'er wanted to go in and be locked up with you. ”

Huo Xing'an saw her say this, and his heart softened: "Forget it, your father...... Hey......"

"Childe, don't be angry with my father, and don't be angry with me, okay?" Mo Lanyang begged him, "I'll be here with you, if he doesn't let you go for a day, I won't leave for a day." ”

"This ......" Huo Xing's anger suddenly disappeared by half, "Sister Lan, let's go back." ”

"I'm not leaving! Whoever told my dad to bully you, that also made me angry. ”

Mo Lan did what she said, and she really didn't leave the hut anymore. She sat down outside the window and talked to Huo Xing'an until dinnertime, ignoring even the persuasion of the servant. Mo Qingyan was helpless, so he had to send someone to bring a table and bring snacks and tea to put on the table. Mo Lan didn't eat it, and only pushed all the dim sum to Huo Xing'an. Huo Xing'an was moved, but he didn't care about eating.

After going on like this until midnight, Mrs. Zhou also came to persuade her, and she also apologized to Huo Xing'an again and again, and only after saying all the good things did she persuade Mo Lan to leave. Mo Lan was reluctant and left in tears.

The next day, Mo Lan still came to accompany him. Worried that Huo Xing's residence would be uncomfortable, she asked the maid to stuff a lot of bedding from between the panes and send him a lot of living utensils. She even brought a zither and stroked the piano for him under the window.

Seeing that Huo Xing'an often looked out of the window from afar, Mo Lan asked him if he was in a hurry to get out of the village yesterday because of Sister Yue'er.

Knowing that Mo Lan was sincere to him, Huo Xingan did not hide it, nodded slightly, and said: "I heard that someone had seen her in the city, and I was a little worried, so I wanted to take a look." ”

"Sister Yue'er didn't leave?" Hearing his words, Mo Lan became a little uneasy.

"I thought she would go back to her hometown. ”

"Then, you should still take a look...... Mo Lan said quietly.

"She must have encountered something difficult to get away. Sister Arashi......"

Seeing that he hesitated, Mo Lan leaned close to the window and held his hand: "Childe, what do you want to say to Lan'er......"

"I want to ask you for something. ”

"As long as Lan'er can do it, she will definitely do it for her son. Seeing him look at the door, Mo Lan understood the meaning and said, "There are many iron chains wrapped around this door, and there is a big lock. This room was used by my brother when they used to practice...... By the way, why didn't I think of it," she said, "Gongzi Xing'an, there is a way, when the second sister-in-law comes back from her parents' house the day after tomorrow, I will go to her to help me." ”

Huo Xing'an nodded: "Sister Lan is good to Xing'an, Xing'an knows it in her heart." ”

Mo Lan sighed softly: "Seeing that Gongzi is so sad, I am also worried." If you don't meet Sister Yue'er, Childe's heart will always be unable to let go. ”

Huo Xingan also sighed secretly.

In front of a waterfront building, there was a girl who was looking at Zhi Tinglan on the shore who was also sighing silently.

In fact, that day, Nalan Yue didn't want to go far. She left a letter for Huo Xing'an, but after reading it herself, she couldn't help but rub it and throw it on the ground, he was afraid that Huo Xing'an would be sad when he read it. Those words are clearly against the will.

When she walked out of Zhuangzi, she just wanted to calm her mind and avoid these troubles for a while, and when she saw the unsustainable flowers on the edge of the forest, she felt even more sad in her heart, and she walked far away unconsciously. Later, a man chased after her with a horse and stuffed her with a burden, saying that it was a silver tael given by Mrs. Zhou, and asked her to take care of herself on the road. She was stunned for a long time with the bag, leaving and not leaving, and not returning. Knowing that Mrs. Zhou had the heart to let herself leave the village, she looked back for a long time, and finally swallowed her tears and silently went in the direction of Jiankang.

That Mrs. Zhou read the letter that Nalan Yue threw away that day, and did not hand it to Huo Xing'an, but asked people to imitate the handwriting and forge another letter, and was afraid that Huo Xing'an would find out and chase it, so she asked Na Lanyue's door to be bolted from the inside, so it was delayed for two days, and it was estimated that Na Lanyue should have been far away, so she showed Huo Xing'an the forged letter.

That day, Nalan Yue left Mo Laozhuang and was walking to an intersection, when she suddenly heard a person calling out to herself Nalan girl. She glanced at the man, who seemed to be a little familiar.

The man smiled: "Miss Nalan may not remember the villain, but the things that the girl stole were retrieved with the help of the villain." ”

Only then did Nalan Yue remember that this person was an entourage beside the little prince Raerdan. So he stepped forward to thank him.

"Miss Nalan doesn't have to be polite. The man said, "The girl is going to Jiankang, and the villain is just on the way, so he can give you a ride." ”

Nalan Yue didn't know where to go, and she was still hesitant in her heart. But thinking that this place is far away from home, I thought it would be better to go to the city to rest first. She was very confused, and she was not assertive, and when she saw the man move closer to the carriage and make a gesture of please, she nodded.

She didn't actually know that this person was specially sent here by Raldan, and when they went to Molaozhuang, they were also followed all the way, and many eyeliners of Raldan were also laid near Molaozhuang. Knowing that Huo Xing'an was going to marry Mo Laozhuang's daughter, Raldan was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to fly away and take Nalan Yue away. This entourage led the order here, and found that Nalan Yue was out of the village alone, so he immediately greeted and asked, and when he saw that he could say that Na Lanyue got into the car, he was even more excited, knowing that the little prince's reward would not be less. He was merry all the way, humming a little song, and the whipping hooves of the horses were fast. Nalan Yue's heart was full of sadness, and under the bumps of the car, she felt that another drop overflowed from the corner of her eyes.

When they arrived in Jiankang, the carriage stopped in front of a mansion.

Na Lan Yue got out of the car and thanked the man goodbye, and the man invited Na Lan Yue in for a cup of tea. Seeing that the mansion was deep, Nalan Yue didn't want to disturb, so she thanked her. The man said: "If the little prince knew that the girl was passing by the mansion and did not treat him with tea, he would definitely blame the villain." ”

As he spoke, a doorman had already gone in to report it. When Nalan Yue thanked him again and turned to leave, Raldan hurriedly ran out of it. Seeing Nalan Yue, the joy was beyond words. "It's really a mountain and a water! I didn't expect to see Miss Nalan again!

"Hello little prince!" But she insisted on refusing to enter the house.

Rattan had no choice but to invite her into the car and take her to an inn.

The inn is near the lake and sees the island, the window is the scene, the willow bank is full of smoke, the scenery is in the painting, it is the best inn in Jiankang. He settled Nalan Yue in the most luxurious room, and quietly instructed his subordinates to let the boss drive away all the guests in the adjacent rooms. Nalan Yue knew that he had always been generous, and he couldn't resist him, so he had to follow him, but he felt that he owed a favor to Raldan.

Raldan politely invited Nalan Yue to tea, and pretended not to know about Huo Xing'an's situation. Nalan Yue had no intention of drinking tea, but now she was even more tearful.

Hearing that Nalan Yue personally said that Huo Xing'an was going to get married, Raldan felt quite comfortable. "Then, when the girl leaves there, she must not want to disturb your friends, right, the scenery here is good, there is no noise and noise, and the girl can be much cleaner, and the wedding banquet in the township will be noisy for many days, so that the girl will not be at peace. ”

Seeing that Nalan Yue was in a gloomy mood, Raerdan said: "If Nalan girl is bored, you can take the girl around in the future." There is a theater not far from here, and you can relax by listening to a little song. ”

"Thank you for your kindness. I don't want to go anywhere. ”

Raldan nodded. "Then the girl should rest more, and if there is anything she needs, she will tell her to do it. He smiled and said, last time, I didn't know Miss Nalan's preferences, so I recklessly gave some small gifts to the girl, but I didn't get into the girl's eyes, I was really ashamed. Whatever Miss Nalan wants to eat and wear, just write it down on paper and give it to me. ”

"Thank you so much for your kindness. I don't have any special preferences, and I don't bother the little prince. In Nalan Yue's heart, she really didn't want to trouble him, and she didn't want to accept his courtesy.

"Well, Miss Nalan doesn't need to be thanked," said Raldan, "and I'm glad to do something little for you!"

After drinking tea, seeing that Nalan Yue was always sullen, Raldan knew that he was interested, and after a few gossips, he said goodbye and left.

But when he left the inn, he immediately smiled. Seeing that he was happy, his subordinates stepped forward one after another to ask for a reward. One of them said that the little prince kept her in the house, and how good it was to accept her directly.

Raldan reprimanded: "The Han people pay attention to drinking kung fu tea, how can they do it if they don't have some patience, let alone carved jade." ”

The subordinate smiled and said: "Yes, yes, the little prince is committed to sinology and has become more and more profound." ”

Raldan laughed.

On the fourth day of the iron house, that night, Huo Xingan couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, so he sat up and looked at the stars outside the window to think about his thoughts.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. He approached the door and heard the rattle of chains, and then the door was slowly pushed open.

"Prince Xing'an," it turned out to be Mo Lan. She looked around and said, "There's no one here, let's go." ”

"How did you get the key?"

"It was my second sister-in-law who helped me steal it from my second brother. She sent Huo Xingan to the yard. "Let's get out of the village now. Huo Xingan wanted to lead the horse, Mo Lan said: "When the horse's hooves sound, it will alarm Zhuang Ding." You go out of the backyard, where there is a chai gate that leads to the back mountain. ”

"Then you ......"

"I originally wanted to go with my son to find Sister Yue'er, but in fact, I miss her too. She looked at Huo Xing'an and said, "When I came just now, I thought about it and thought it would be better to let you go by yourself." She grabbed Huo Xing'an's cuffs, "I know, Gongzi and Sister Yue'er will come back after talking, right?"

Huo Xingan nodded silently.

Mo Lan let out a long sigh, and suddenly she snorted softly and pointed to the ground. Huo Xing'an saw a shadow pass from the ground, followed by another. When he looked up, he saw the branches of the trees by the wall swaying, and five black shadows in robes falling one after another around him.

One of the black shadows slapped at him, Huo Xingan hurriedly dodged, and the other black shadow also slapped his palm, and he slapped his backhand. Several black shadows surrounded him, the palm wind came and went, he jumped up, and successively pulled out his legs, and the five black shadows also came out together, inseparably trapping him in the circle.

Mo Lan was forced aside by the palm wind, she shouted: "Who are you?" Seeing that Huo Xing'an was besieged by five people, she also wanted to step forward to help Huo Xing'an, but her shallow skills were not close at all, only her hair was flying, and her clothes were hunting.

These five people didn't seem to be forcing with all their might, and after a round with Huo Xingan, they jumped away and stood still.

Huo Xingan didn't know that Mo Laozhuang had such a good hand, so he said stupidly: "It seems that the owner of Mo Zhuang has been prepared for a long time. Mo Lan rushed in to protect Huo Xing'an and said, "I let him go, don't bully more and less." ”

One of them laughed: "The five of us have always shot together, no matter how many people there are on the other side, it doesn't matter if we bully more or less, we deserve it." ”

Seeing that the five people around him were all white-haired and long-bearded, Huo Xingan hugged his fists and said, "I've never seen five old gentlemen, dare to ask what to call them?"

At this time, there was a person outside the courtyard gate: "These five are the five elders of Qingcheng." He strode over and said to Huo Xing'an, "Prince Xing'an, you are in the iron house, you are offended." He introduced, "The five elders of Qingcheng heard about the prince of Xing'an and the head of Nie, and they came to meet him. He saluted the five elders.

Mo Lan saw that it was Mo Qingyan, and complained lightly: "Dad, I thought that the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Soldiers were coming, but it turned out that you invited the five elders of Qingcheng to deal with the son of Xing'an." ”

Mo Qingyan said: "Which is to deal with the prince of Xing'an, the five masters are just learning from the prince of Xing'an." Then he asked, "You are naughty again, where did you get the key?"

Mo Lan pouted and tilted her head and didn't speak.

The second elder of the five elders of Qingcheng said: "I heard that the prince of Xing'an has a friend with the head of Nie, and besides, the head of Nie also left a relic with you, and we just have something to ask." ”

Mo Qingyan said: "Then let's go to the hall and talk." He made a gesture of please.

Seeing that he couldn't sneak out of Mo Laozhuang, Huo Xingan had to follow Mo Qingyan and walk out. The five elders were still surrounded and went with him. Mo Lan also wanted to follow, but Mo Qingyan asked her to go back to the room, and her two brothers didn't know when they appeared outside the courtyard and stopped her, so she had to stomp her feet and go to Mrs. Zhou.

The group came to a hall, and Mo Qingyan invited everyone to sit down and introduced them one by one.

In the candlelight, the five elders of Qingcheng looked solemn. Huo Xing'an arched his hand to them and said, "In Xia Huo Xing'an, I am fortunate to meet the five old gentlemen of the Qingcheng faction!" The five elders also gave up.

Mo Qingyan said: "Since the head of Nie's family is unknown, all the important affairs of the Qingcheng faction have been handled by the five masters. Regarding the matter of the head of Nie, I hope that the prince of Xing'an and the masters will talk in detail. ”

So Huo Xing'an told them about meeting Nie Motian and burying him. Jia Deyin, the third of the five elders, asked, "Does the prince of Xing'an know what kind of poison is in the head of Nie?"

Brother Nie didn't say it. ”

The second elder Ran Gu pondered: "Did Master Nie only give you a personal sword?

Seeing that the elders of the Qingcheng faction were there, Huo Xingan no longer concealed it: "There is also a cowhide, I don't know what it is, I only entrusted it to the Qingcheng faction." ”

The eyes of the five elders lit up, and the second elder Ran Gu glanced at Mo Qingyan. Mo Qingyan said: "I haven't seen the prince of Xing'an mention this thing, but now I will hand it over to the five elders." ”

Huo Xingan had no choice but to briefly say that the cowhide map was snatched away by Yuepo Xingpo successively. Hearing that it was the three women of Kuling who snatched it, the five elders of Qingcheng looked at each other, and didn't seem to believe what Huo Xing'an said. Ran Gu said: "This is also too coincidental. He asked Huo Xing'an how he met Xingpo Yuepo, Huo Xing'an didn't want to mention Nalan Yue's abduction, nor did he want to elaborate on the matter of finding revenge on the black-robed guest, so he replied vaguely. Seeing that there seemed to be a hidden meaning in Huo Xing'an's words, Ran Gu frowned and didn't ask any more.

Jia Deyin said: "The three women of Kuling have always been erratic, if they really got the map, where to find it. ”

Ran Gu thought: "When the Divine Majesty Master Ancestor was here, the third woman of the Kuling Mountains had been to Qingcheng Mountain several times, and she had a bad intention, and she was strictly guarded against by us, but she couldn't succeed. If you really get the picture this time, maybe you will go to Qingcheng Mountain again to wait for the opportunity to steal the other half. ”

Jia Deyin nodded and said, "It seems that we should go back to Qingcheng Mountain quickly." The five elders also nodded.

Ran Gu suddenly glanced at Huo Xing'an and said, "Please also ask Prince Xing'an to go back to Qingcheng Mountain with us to find out about this matter." ”

Huo Xing'an was in a hurry to find Nalan Yue, how could he have the heart to go to Shu with the five elders of Qingcheng, so he said: "This matter has been clarified, and it is indeed Xingpo and Yuepo who robbed the cowhide." Xing'an was ashamed of the trust of Brother Nie, and asked the five old gentlemen to forgive. Besides, Xing'an has important things to do at the moment, and I really can't go back to Qingcheng Mountain with the five old gentlemen, and when I finish my work, I will definitely help you find Xing Po and them, so that the thing can be returned to its original owner. ”

Jia Deyin said: "This matter is a major matter for our Qingcheng faction, how urgent is the important matter that the prince of Xing'an said?"

Mo Qingyan on the side said: "A few days ago, on a whim, the insider married the little girl to the prince of Xing'an, and she is not yet married. The important thing that Prince Xing'an said was this marriage. Huo Xing thought with peace of mind, where is this matter, but it is inconvenient to say it.

Mo Qingyan said again: "The matter of getting married, you might as well postpone it, and the prince of Xing'an can return to Qingcheng Mountain with the five masters first." ”

Huo Xingan was unhappy when he saw Mo Qingyan say the same. He knew that the Qingcheng faction here didn't believe what he said, but he was stubborn in his heart and absolutely refused to be at the mercy of others. He clenched his fists and said, "Xing'an really can't accompany you. ”

Ran Gu slowly twisted his beard and asked him, "Have you seen that cowhide diagram for Gongzi Xing'an?" He suddenly raised his gaze and stared directly at Huo Xing'an.

Huo Xingan felt the fierceness in his gaze. "I didn't look carefully, and I was robbed by Yuepo. ”

"Then can you still remember it?" asked Ran Gu again.

Huo Xingan shook his head.

Ran Gu and the elders looked at each other. Jia Deyin said: "The prince of Xing'an still comes with us, firstly, to wait for the third lady of Kuling to show up to verify what you said, and secondly, please draw another picture for us based on your impression." ”

"I really don't remember. ”

"Prince Xing'an won't remember at all, right?" Ran Gu said, "You can think slowly, and draw as much as you can remember." ”

Seeing that the five elders of Qingcheng insisted on taking him back to Qingcheng Mountain, Huo Xingan stood up and said goodbye. Of course, the five elders of Qingcheng couldn't let him leave, and the second elder Ran Gu stopped him, and Huo Xingan pushed it away: "It's disrespectful." "Still striding out.

The five elders immediately jumped out one after another, shuttling in the palm wind, stopping in front of him. Huo Xing'an was annoyed in his heart, thinking to himself what these old guys wanted, and he still didn't let me go after he had explained it clearly. He didn't have a weapon in his hand, so he had to use his fists and feet to fight with the five elders. But the five elders were originally famous in the Qingcheng faction, not to mention that the five of them made a move together, where was Huo Xingan's opponent. Just now outside the hospital, the five elders left room to make a move, Huo Xingan was still able to resist, and now the five of them were facing each other with all their might, Huo Xingan only came out with only five moves, and he was already in a hurry, he wanted to use Xingpo's heart-piercing ghost handprint, but the five elders continued to attack, and the palm was impenetrable, and it didn't take long for Huo Xingan to be restrained. He complained bitterly in his heart, knowing that these five old decays would no longer listen to him, so he had to grit his teeth and remain silent.

Jia Deyin took out a long rope and gave it to Mo Qingyan, which seemed to be made of thousands of threads and hung with small bells. Mo Qingyan said, "I've offended my son", and tied Huo Xing'an with the long rope. Huo Xing'an struggled, the long rope was extremely tough, the more he struggled, the tighter it became, and the bell kept ringing. Huo Xingan was not good at scolding, so he only stared at Mo Qingyan. Mo Qingyan didn't look at him, but comforted: "Don't be annoyed, the five elders of Qingcheng are also helpless, just because the matter of Nie Zhangmen is very important, you must know that over the years, there have been constant disputes between the Qingcheng faction and Hongdaomen, and there have been countless casualties, all of which are related to this thing." When this matter is clarified, it is not too late for the prince of Xing'an to get married again, and there is no need to rush this time. Huo Xing said with peace of mind, how can I be in a hurry, I only regret that I shouldn't be in this troubled water, this Mo Qingyan is clearly towards the Qingcheng faction, I'm afraid I don't want the little girl to marry me, that's right, I don't have the heart to enter the Guizhuang at all, hey, I just don't know what happened to Lan Yue. At this time, he was not worried about himself, just worried about Nalan Yue.

Mo Qingyan's two sons searched Huo Xing'an's body, but found nothing, and went to Huo Xing'an's residence to search for a while, but found nothing. Mo Qingyan quietly told the five elders of Qingcheng. The five elders of Qingcheng walked out of the hall and discussed what to do. Some say that Huo Xing'an may have something to hide from everyone, and the death of Nie Zhangmen may also be related to him, and he has to be tortured; some say that Nie Zhangmen's death is not necessarily related to him, but it is also possible that he hid a map. Shi Youshan, the fifth elder who has not spoken, said: I don't think this person looks like a traitor, and his words and deeds are quite upright. However, according to Qingyan, there are indeed doubts. Let's take him back to the mountain first and figure it out according to Senior Brother Ran's wishes. The other four elders nodded slightly.

At this moment, I only heard the bell ringing in the house. The fifth elder looked back and saw that Mo Qingyan was blocking Mo Lan who came in through the back door.

"Dad, why did you tie up the son of Xing'an?" Mo Lan pushed Mo Qingyan's hand away and went to get the end of the bell rope tied to the pillar of the hall.

"Lan'er!" Mo Qingyan took her hand, "The five elders of Qingcheng just asked Huo Xing'an to go to Qingcheng Mountain. ”

"I don't believe it! Then why do you have to tie it up! You are still afraid that the son of Xing'an will run away. ”

Mo Qingyan said to her: "Okay, even if you are afraid that the son of Xing'an will run away and suffer a little grievance." When the big wedding is over, the son of Xing'an will not leave. ”

"There's no need to tie it up, if you don't worry, let's lock up my son in that iron house." ”

Mo Qingyan thought that it would be okay, so he asked the second son to take Huo Xing'an to the iron house, Mo Lan looked at Huo Xing'an's back with tears in her eyes, and thought, this is all my fault.

Comforting Mo Lan back to the room, Mo Qingyan asked when the five elders of Qingcheng would leave.

Ran Gu said: "It's better to go back early, once the third woman of Kuling really comes, it's better to be prepared." He suggested that he leave immediately tomorrow morning, Mo Qingyan nodded, and said that the carriage and horses would be arranged early in the morning.

The five elders of Qingcheng praised Mo Qingyan one after another, praised him for his great contribution to the Qingcheng faction, and said that when the map was drawn, they would take Mo Qingyan to go to sea together, and even recommend him as the head. Mo Qingyan was surprised and delighted, so excited that he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to the five elders.

Back in the iron house, Huo Xing'an was depressed. I thought, those five old guys, what five old fools, hey, I shouldn't mention that cowhide. Besides, even if that thing has some big secret, I'm afraid that I know, or I'm worried that I won't tell them, and I don't want to think about it, if a person really knows that it's a treasure, I'm afraid they won't even mention it, except for me...... He thought, I Huo Xing'an don't care what is hidden in the treasure map, it is the gold and silver mountains and pearl agate mountains, I am not rare, I just know, and I will give them the cowhide. What is the point of those people in the rivers and lakes, fighting for each other? Or what are the five elders of Qingcheng who have been famous for a long time, in my opinion, they are just four old men who are insatiably greedy. He thought with contempt, and couldn't help but despise the five elders of Qingcheng. He struggled hard, and the bell rang again and again. When Mo Qingyan's two sons pushed him into the iron house, they didn't dare to untie the bell cord on him.

Huo Xingan looked at the clear moonlight outside the window, sighed, and fell asleep with a heavy heart for a long time.

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Mo Qingyan prepared the carriage and horses. Huo Xingan was escorted into the car and set off with the five elders of Qingcheng.

Mo Qingyan specially told the Zhuang people to be quiet and soft, not to alarm the young lady and the lady. Unexpectedly, the sedan car had just left the village, and Mo Lan chased after him.

It turned out that Mo Lan didn't close his eyes all night, and he always felt that Huo Xing'an would disappear as soon as he closed his eyes. As soon as she saw the morning light, she heard a servant walking briskly in the courtyard, so she knew that something was wrong, and found that Huo Xing'an was not in the iron house, so she chased after him outside the village. She panted and caught up with Mo Qingyan, who was seeing her off, and didn't understand why the five elders of Qingcheng wanted to take Huo Xing'an away, she had to go with Huo Xing'an, and she didn't listen to any persuasion. Mo Lan said: "Unless you lock me up in an iron house, then I will go on a hunger strike." If you don't lock me up in the iron house, I will chase me to Qingcheng Mountain on horseback. Mo Qingyan couldn't help her, so he had to agree to accompany her.

In Mo Qingyan's heart, he didn't ignore Huo Xing'an, knowing that his little daughter was obsessed with Huo Xing'an, and felt that after figuring out the matter, Huo Xing'an might have to come back to be his son-in-law, and the little girl could follow and ease some resentment, and they could be friendly with each other when they met in the future. What he could look forward to the most in his heart was the position of the head of the Qingcheng faction, thinking that one day he would be able to sit in the position of the Qingcheng faction that the world admired, he only felt that he was full of spirits, and the rest was not important. He sent some Zhuang Ding to escort Mo Lan, and he sent Wu Lao Gong ten miles away before returning to Zhuang.

Mo Lan sat in a separate car, unable to share the car with Huo Xingan, secretly thinking in his heart, how could he untie the bell cord. But along the way, the five elders of Qingcheng watched very closely, and only when delivering food could she say a few words to Huo Xingan. Huo Xingan was also very moved when he saw her coming. Mo Lan believed that Huo Xing'an would never hide that treasure map or something, and only heard the five elders ask Huo Xing'an a few times about the map, and also gave him a pen and paper to let him recall, Huo Xing'an could only smile helplessly at her.

The bell cord was full of tongues that could ventilate and report at any time, and the five elders of Qingcheng could hear it wherever Huo Xing'an went, Mo Lan had no choice but to take care of Huo Xing'an all the way, and looked forward to the five elders becoming deaf and dazzled all the way, or one day they would be drunk. And although these five elders have long beards and fluttering, they are in good spirits, deaf and clear-sighted, and they don't drink a drop of wine, so there is nothing to take advantage of.

After walking like this for a few days, he came to the vicinity of Anfeng, and the accompanying disciples of the Qingcheng faction borrowed a few rooms in a temple and settled down. Huo Xing'an, as usual, was arranged in the room next to the five elders.

In the evening, the five elders drank tea together and chatted about the cowhide map.

In the meantime, the fifth elder Shi Youshan said: "I think that kid may indeed not know the details, and he has not drawn a picture for several days. ”

Ran Gu shook his head and said, "Senior brother, people's hearts are unpredictable, how can it be so easy to trust others?" At the beginning, we were gullible to believe the two clever guys in Hongdaomen, which caused the disputes over the years. ”

"Senior Brother Ran is right," Jia Deyin said, "If it wasn't for the Hongdaomen's empty man's oath, our Divine Majesty Master would not have made a covenant with him, but they didn't believe their words after Hongdaomen." ”

Shi Youshan was silent.

Suddenly, Ran Gu stood up gently, as if listening attentively. The elders were silent. In the silence, there was a slight sound from the tiles on the house, and Ran Gu jumped out with an arrow. But there was no movement around. He settled in the moonlit courtyard and said loudly: "If I guess correctly, this kind of elusive light skill, who else can there be in the world except Lin Siniang?"

A hoarse and rough voice came from the treetops not far away: "Even if you have eyesight, I like you the most among the five old immortals." "No one would think of a woman listening to the voice, the sound is like a brush rubbing the bottom of a pot, and it is like a grinding disc crushing grains.

"Thanks to Lin Siniang's wrong love. ”

"Ahh Which old immortal praises me for praising me well, and I love him wrongly. ”

"Hmph!" Ran Gu twisted his beard, suppressing his anger, "Lin Siniang, I won't quarrel with you." I wonder why you suddenly appeared?"

"Hahaha......" Lin Siniang laughed as ugly as an old owl. "I'm not here to paint the five of you old face thrushes, I'm afraid that if you paint the monkey's buttocks, you will be led by some monkey trickster. ”

Hearing Lin Siniang's voice, the other four elders came out together, looking at the dark shadow of the tree, but they didn't see her person. Jia Deyin said angrily: "Every time Lin Siniang comes, she humiliates us all over the place, but what's the benefit?"

"I'm happy!" Lin Siniang laughed again, "Let my wife be happy, that is, to accumulate virtue for you! Aren't you happy?"

"This virtue is still avoided. Ran Gu said, "Lin Siniang makes fun of a few of us old decay, what kind of virtue is it?"

"You're virtuous? sneaky, sneaky, discussing what bad things, don't I know?"

Jia Deyin said: "When it comes to eavesdropping, Lin Siniang's light skills are secondary." ”

"Oh, so you're talking about something bad. ”

"The five of us, the Ming people don't do dark things, but always do righteous and bright things. Shi Youshan said.

"Ahh Lin Siniang laughed and said, "A good Ming person doesn't do dark things, your Qingcheng faction teamed up with Hongdaomen to bully orphans and widows for a picture, is it just the light?"

"Then what about you?" Ran Gu said, "from west to east, and from east to west, just to scold us for being old?" He snorted, "Are you just right?"

"Look at you old faces and black faces, the soles of my feet are brighter than yours. The shadow of the tree flickered, and Lin Siniang flew to another tree. "Mother, I'm coming in the open, listening to the light, I heard any bullshit secrets, then you have to be careful, haha......"

"I'm afraid Lin Siniang is going to be disappointed," Ran Gu said, "We don't have anything here for you to find." You're patient, and you're going to find us. If you go to Qingcheng Mountain in the bright light, maybe you can take a look. ”

"Who knows if you are carrying a urine bag with you? The five old immortals went down the mountain together and walked around the kiln here in Jiangnan, can there be any good thing?"

"Lin Siniang, we respect you as the head of a sect, if you want to speak disrespectfully, we can ......" Jia Deyin said.

"Who wants you to be respected? Old lady, I saw that you were quite pleasing to the eye, so I itched a few words, and changed to another Qingcheng faction turtle disciple turtle grandson, and I went to the pit early. ”

"I can afford it, I should not be old. Ran Gu was determined not to bother with her, just hehehe.

"It doesn't matter if you're sobbing or urinating, it's all rude. As long as you tell the old lady honestly, the old lady will be happy. ”

Juddin asked her, "What to tell you?" ”

At this time, the disciples of the Qingcheng faction took their swords one after another and gathered around the courtyard.

"When you went to Lin'an, you went to Jiankang, and you almost went north, are you looking for Nie Motian?"

"So what?" said Judd.

"But suddenly I didn't go to the north again, and now I'm rushing back, it seems that it's ......," Lin Siniang snorted, "I'm afraid I got what you want." ”

"What is it?" asked Judd-yin.

"Don't rely on the old man to pretend to be stupid, if I'm not mistaken, since you don't go to the trouble of Hongdaomen, there must already be a ......"

Ran Gu said: "Lin Siniang is not trying to test us, right? You have been guessing us all the way, calculating us all the way, but it is too much trouble." ”

"You're right, I've been thinking about you along the way, and I'm getting more and more energetic. So, you have to be careful, you have to be careful when you eat, and you have to be even more careful when you are complimentary, ahaha. Lin Siniang flew away with a smile, and after a while, the voice was already far away.

The five elders looked at each other and shook their heads. Jia Deyin said: "This Lin Siniang is really difficult. When I was in Lin'an, I was tossed by her. ”

"We're all very careful. Luo Dingsheng, the head of the five elders who had always been silent, said.

"Be careful, what do we have?" said Shi Youshan.

Ran Gu pointed to the room where Huo Xing'an was.

And in Huo Xing'an's house, there is now one more person. It was Mo Lan who quietly came in when everyone was in the courtyard just now, and Lin Siniang's appearance undoubtedly helped. She motioned for Huo Xing'an to keep silent and hid under the bed.

After Lin Siniang left, everyone in the courtyard dispersed, and the five elders of Qingcheng also went back to the room to rest. A disciple of the Qingcheng Sect who was guarding Huo Xing'an also returned to Huo Xing'an's room and lay down on the other side of the bed.

After waiting for a long time, the snoring of this Qingcheng sect disciple sounded. Mo Lan slowly crawled out from under the bed and took out a short sword from his arms, which was Huo Xingan's sword. She looked at Huo Xing'an, whose eyes were wide-eyed, nodded, and then began to sharpen the bell cord on his body with her sword. She moved very slowly, and when the snoring next to her was along, she cut and grinded, and as soon as the snoring stopped, she also stopped, trying not to let the bell ring. I don't know what it is, it is tenacious, and Rao is such a sharp and good sword, it took a long time to cut one. Mo Lan was covered with sweat, and he didn't have time to wipe it, so he gently dissolved the bell cord from him.

Under the cover of snoring, she and Huo Xingan tiptoed to the window, gently pushed the window open, and jumped out together.

Unexpectedly, the ground outside the window was covered with something like beans, and it fell to the ground on all fours, and there was a "click" sound of crushing and crushing. Mo Lan pushed Huo Xing'an, and Huo Xing'an hurriedly flashed into the shadow around the corner. Obviously, several of the five elders were still awake, and they immediately went out of the room to check. Mo Lan walked to the middle of the courtyard, picked up a few stones, and threw them at the bushes outside the courtyard.

Seeing Mo Lan standing in the courtyard, and catching a glimpse of the window of Huo Xing'an's house open, Ran Gu was shocked, and said to Shi Youshan behind him: "That kid is gone!" Mo Lan remembered the conversation between Lin Siniang and the fifth elder that he heard before, so he said: "I just walked to the courtyard and saw an old woman running away with the son of Xing'an. She pointed in the direction of the stone. So the five elders chased in the direction she pointed out.

Mo Lan found Huo Xing'an along the root of the wall, took out a short sword and handed it over: "You go quickly!" and grabbed a handful of broken silver for him.

Huo Xing'an looked at her eyes flashing in the dark: "What about you?"

"I'm fine, they won't embarrass me," Mo Lan pushed him sharply, "Let's go." ”

Huo Xingan nodded, glanced at her, turned around and left.

Mo Lan suddenly grabbed him again: "Son Xing'an......" Huo Xing'an turned around and saw her looking at himself deeply: "Son, you must go back to Mo Laozhuang." Huo Xing'an nodded.

"If Son-in-law doesn't come back within a month to get married, I will die for me. Mo Lan said firmly.

Huo Xing's head was shocked.

Mo Lan let go of her hand and watched Huo Xing'an leave in a hurry in the dark. She gently put her hand on her chest, feeling the warmth on Huo Xing'an's clothes remaining in her palm.
