Chapter 406: The Mysterious Woman Behind the Saman
When the woman behind the gauze heard his inquiry, she smiled slightly, put her hands on the strings, and asked in a low voice while gently plucking:
"Did you pay attention to the door number hanging outside when Childe came in?"
Although the sound of the piano was confused, Luo Yan still heard the sound, which was not the same as the woman who brought him just now, so he immediately raised his vigilance and replied in a deep voice:
"Yuhexuan, is there anything special?"
The woman smiled lightly and said, "Childe may not know that although this place is a land of fireworks, this Jade Lotus Pavilion has always been only for sale (shēn).
The piano song has been played just now, if the child still wants to listen to another song, the little woman can play another song, if the son has other needs, please go downstairs to find another woman. ”
Luo Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Then ask the fairy to play the "Bamboo Sound in the Hidden Valley" just now." ”
The woman behind the sara answered, and the onion fingers began to pluck the strings again, and the melodious and beautiful melody returned (dàng) in the room.
(yīn) When the sun is frustrated, the woman who plays always looks up from behind the gauze to check Luo Yan's watch (qíng), intentionally or unintentionally.
But Luo Yan always maintained the appearance of a scholarly scholar, shaking the folding fan in his hand from time to time.
Just as the woman looked at him again, he suddenly turned his head to look into the veil, and his eyes were facing each other, although through the veil, the woman could feel the light of those eyes, and her heart trembled, and an abrupt high-pitched sound sounded, and then the sound of the piano stopped.
Then, the woman calmed down her nervous heart (qíng), and then said: "I'm sorry, Childe, I'm not familiar with this song "The Sound of Bamboo in the Valley", I accidentally pressed the wrong string just now, why don't you let me play another song for Childe, what do you think?"
Luo Yan said: "No need, you can also take a rest, the fairy piano is extraordinary, the tune is melodious and expressive, and people are like immortals after listening to it, presumably if you come here to listen to the music, the cost will not be low, right?"
The woman smiled and said: "Childe has won the prize, and ordinary people here can't get in even if they have more spirit stones, but tonight a noble person has already chartered this place for you, and the fee has been paid, so Childe can enjoy it." ”
When Luo Yan heard this, his heart was even more thorough, and there was really a mystery in this, so he asked, "Can you tell me, who is making such a cost?"
The woman replied, "This slave family doesn't know, I'm just a person who cares the qin." ”
Even if the woman didn't say it, Luo Yan knew in his heart that this matter must have something to do with the black-faced young monk he saw in the tavern during the day, and only he knew that he would come to this nightless building.
He looked around the room, and then shouted: "Ye Daoyou, come out, I've listened to two wonderful songs, you can't keep hiding in the back, right?"
As soon as his words fell, a (shēn) shadow walked out of the side door at the back of the room and said with a smile: "Daoyou is really thoughtful, and this little thing can't be hidden from your eyes. ”
Luo Yan turned his face to see that the person who came was the black-faced young monk he had seen during the day, and the woman who led him in was also following him.
The Fuqin woman also got up (shēn) at this time and said: "Why did my brother come out so quickly, didn't he say that it was okay, you can't come out until I finish playing "Hundred Flowers (chūn)"?"
After Luo Yan heard "Hundred Flowers (chūn)", his heart moved, and he remembered Ying'er he had seen.
The black-faced young monk said: "You left song after song, when you play "Hundred Flowers (chūn)", I'm afraid that my brother will have to stand outside all night, and you won't come to see it."
Drifter?"
The woman heard her brother say this, so she also walked out of the veil, put on a thin veil and gave Luo Yan a blessing and said, "I have seen Gongzi in Xia Qianxue, how do you call Gongzi?"
Luo Yan said: "Fairy, please get up, in Xia Muxi." ”
The black-faced young man said: "In the lower leaf wind, there were many people in the tavern at that time, and some words were inconvenient to say directly, so I asked the pastor to come here, and the housekeeper was naughty just now and just made a joke to the son." ”
Then he raised his hand to remove the middle veil, and the three of them came to a table with an antique taste.
The woman who led him in said, "Talk slowly, I'll go and compose another song for everyone." ”
Ye Yingfeng waved his hand, and the woman then walked to the piano.
After the melodious music sounded, Ye Yingfeng said: "Shepherd friends are quite satisfied with the environment here?"
Luo Yan said: "Ye Daoyou is really generous, and it is really difficult to bear Sheng (qíng) in the next place with such a cost." ”
Ye Qianxue said: "I heard my brother come back and say, an old friend entrusted a Taoist friend to hand over a brocade box to my Ye family?"
Luo Yan said: "It's not handed over to the Ye family, but to the Ye family to someone I need to find, but for the time being, I'm afraid I'll disappoint the two of you, I won't trust anyone easily until I confirm your (shēn) share." ”
Ye Qianxue asked with some displeasure when she heard this, "How does that fellow Daoist want to prove it?"
Luo Yan replied: "Actually, it's simple, I have a sentence here, if you can say the second half of the sentence, I will take out the brocade box and let the two of you take a look, as for handing it over to you, I still need to discuss it in detail to confirm whether you are the person I am looking for." ”
Ye Yingfeng said: "Fellow Daoists may wish to talk about it first." ”
Luo Yan said: "The first half of my sentence is: the cicada spreads its wings. ”
Ye Yingfeng and Ye Qianxue looked at each other after hearing this, and after being silent for a moment, Ye Yingfeng said:
"Can you allow me to wait for ten (rì), and after ten (rì) and ask you to come here again, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. ”
Luo Yan smiled and said, "In that case, then we'll see you in ten (rì) days." Then he turned (shēn) and prepared to leave.
Ye Qianxue stretched out her hand as if to block her after (shēn), but was grabbed by Ye Yingfeng's arm and pulled back, shouting: "Cai Lian, the shepherd is leaving, you help me send it." ”
After hearing this, the woman who was stroking the qin hurriedly got up (shēn), followed two steps to Luo Yan (shēn), took his arm and said, "Childe, please go this way." ”
Then, just like that, he held his arm and sent him out of the Nightless Tower, and the whole process seemed very intimate.
After leaving the Buyelou, he always felt that the Ye Qianxue he saw today was somewhat similar to the appearance of Ying'er he had seen before, but the charm was a little different, were they the same person, or was there another hidden (qíng)?
With doubts, he didn't go far, but walked around the neighborhood and looked at his surroundings.
There are more than a dozen of these pavilions on this street, large and small, and the Buyelou is the largest and most advanced one.
The location across the street is a gathering place for some craftsmen.
After Luo Yan went around, one family looked at it, among these craftsmen, there were those who made jewelry on the spot, those who customized weapons and armor, those who made masks, and those who made home ornaments.
Looking at it, he stopped in front of a blacksmith shop, looked at the strong man with black skin and a sledgehammer inside, and sighed in his heart:
"This person's cultivation is not lower than the middle stage of the Jiedan, and it seems that he falls on the iron tool at will
The sledgehammer is actually spread out according to a hidden formation, and it seems that in this city where mortals and monks live together, some monks have to put down the (shēn) section and work as coolies in order to obtain spirit stones!"
After going around in a circle, he returned to the inn, and after sending a few voices, he set up the (jìn) system and continued to refine the soul bell.
Soon seven days passed, and the fourth Soul Solid Bell was finally successfully refined, and with it, his Divine Lake expanded again, and his Divine Thoughts were strengthened again.
After being overjoyed, Luo Yan rested for a while, then came to the street again and walked towards Beicheng.
Unlike other places, there are not so many large sect courtyards, only a gray stone walled mansion is located in the center, and the rest of the place is lined with shops and attics on both sides of the street.
After entering the alley, there are small courtyards with small doors and courtyards, which has a unique style.
The one or two monks he occasionally encountered also had their aura restricted, but Luo Yan still faintly felt that most of their cultivation was above the refining period.
He went in and out of the alley, went to a few small courtyards, and then returned to the street.
At an intersection, he met the handsome young monk who had entered the city with him that day, so he greeted: "Don't come here harmless, fellow Daoist, we will meet again." ”
The handsome young man looked at Luo Yan for a moment, agreed vaguely, and hurriedly ran to the mansion in the middle.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of talking, Luo Yan also smiled and turned to the east of Chiyuan City.
After walking for more than an hour, the buildings here gradually took on a staggered pattern, and some large courtyards also appeared, and the majestic archway in front of the gate showed the prominent sects behind them (shēn).
On the street, there are many more pedestrians than in the North City.
Luo Yan was wandering aimlessly, when he suddenly saw three red-robed monks walking in front of everyone with a middle-aged man.
And the man who was pressed was in the late stage of his cultivation, and now his qi veins were sealed, his loose hair was coiled in the back of his head, and his face showed a painful expression (qíng).
When a gray-robed young monk standing next to Luo Yan saw these people, he whispered with some dissatisfaction:
"The Earth Demon Gate has arrested people again, this is already the third one caught this month, right?"
Another monk standing with him said, "It should be the fourth person, and a nun was arrested a few days ago." ”
After Luo Yan heard this, he moved to where they were, and then asked, "What kind of sect is this Disha Sect, aren't they afraid of provoking the anger of the public by arresting people like this?"
The gray-robed young monk said, "Daoist friends have just arrived, who will care about such a thing (qíng) now?"
Luo Yan hugged his fists and said: "It is true that I have just come here, and I also ask Taoist friends to solve my doubts." ”
The gray-robed young monk looked at him, and seeing that he was not one of the earth's demons, he began to tell him the beginning and the end of the matter (qíng).
It turned out that the Earth Demon Sect used to be a third-rate sect, and it was a staggering minions in this Chiyuan City.
However, just two hundred years ago, a late Mahayana monk appeared in the Disha Gate, and his power suddenly soared, and the people inside the gate also began to behave in this eastern city.
Most of the monks who were arrested were people who had had been in conflict with them before, and now they were taken advantage of the opportunity to work as coolies.
The high-ranking monks who lived in the north were reluctant to set fire (shēn), which further fueled their arrogance.
