The store is lit with incense, fragrant, and light smoke. In the fog, it was like a smiling person, slowly emerging in the smoke. Luo Kui lowered her eyebrows, blowing the tea unhurriedly, the heat swept over her face, pulling her eyes, the old things were vivid in her eyes as if she was in another world, just like the tea in the entrance, with a hint of sweetness in the bitterness.

The dim sum of Xinghualou is warm and sweet, accompanied by the Biluochun before the Ming Dynasty, the entrance is fragrant, Luokui drank a cup of tea, and sighed with his eyes: "Du Gui secretly followed him along the way, and nothing went wrong." ”

The weather is hot, the doors and windows of the store are closed, there is no wind penetrating in, I can't help but get more and more stuffy, Luo Kui is oozing sweat on his forehead, the shopkeeper sees this, and hurriedly unfolds a folding fan, and sends a cool breeze on her side: "Master, rest assured, Mo Gongzi is all right." ”

Fingertips tapped on the table, and the sound of slight tapping was clear in the lonely store, and Luo Kui's eyebrows curled slightly: "Along the way, Du Gui didn't find any reason to scare him to turn around and go back to Yangzhou." ”

The shopkeeper frowned and smiled bitterly: "What kind of road encounter bandits, night stay in a black shop and other tricks have been exhausted, and I have cried several times and refused to turn back." Master, his subordinates can't figure out whether Mo Gongzi's courage has become bigger or smaller. ”

Luo Kui smiled and sighed again: "The matter of Yangzhou is much more than meeting bandits on the road and staying in a black shop at night, how can he be afraid." It's just that Qingzhou looks calm now, but in fact, the dark tide is surging, and he is afraid that he will fall into it when he comes, and he will not be able to live the stable life he wants for a few days. ”

"Mo Gongzi is used to being pampered, and he can't live a night of extreme poverty in Yangzhou, but he has never experienced wind and rain, so how can he stay in Qingzhou. "The shopkeeper kept on his hands, and the cool breeze came slowly.

Luo Kui slowly sipped the tea, the blue water was slight, the tea leaves were floating up and down in the cup, her sigh was long, from the past to the present: "Where is he settled now." ”

The shopkeeper bowed slightly: "At the Leping Inn." ”

"Leping Inn. Luo Kui's eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "That's the most expensive inn in the city, how can he have the money to live there." ”

The shopkeeper pondered for a long time, and then smiled in embarrassment: "Before Mo Gongzi left Yangzhou, he sold all the family property that could be sold, and he came out with cash. ”

The shadow of the sun is slightly rippling, through the pale white window paper obliquely into the house, Luo Kui sits sideways under the window, half of it is hidden in the mottled shadow, and the outline is not clear, and the other half is shrouded in bright sunlight, the face is as white as jade, the eyes are drooping, the slender eyelashes cast a shadow like a distant mountain on the face, the white fingers are rubbed on the cuffs, the moon-white fine lines are embroidered with goose yellow folded branches and plum patterns, and the noble sons in the high gate are all piled up with sea-like silver.

The shopkeeper refilled the cup of tea, and continued with a smile: "It's just that no amount of silver can't help but be wasted like this, Mo Gongzi has now reduced three meals to one meal, and as soon as he entered the city, he was anxious to inquire about the whereabouts of the master, and went to the old mansion in the past, although the old mansion has not changed hands, but it has long been deserted and dilapidated, if the master is still not found, Mo Gongzi is afraid that he will really live on the streets." ”

Luo Kui was silent, there are so many livelihoods in Qingzhou City, Jingmo is willing to be hungry, and he is not willing to find something to do, he is really used to being a gentleman. She looked at the tea for a while, this boy and brother spent money like flowing water, and he was still so lazy, sitting and eating like this, even if there was a mountain of gold and silver, he would eat clean sooner or later, if he raised him like this, sooner or later he would have to be raised as a waste, her heart fluctuated, gave birth to ripples, and slowly had a plan.

Seeing that Luo Kui was silent, the shopkeeper had to slowly continue: "The master has been in hiding from the world for many years, and his whereabouts are not so easy to inquire about, and Mo Gongzi is not very clear about the details of the master over the years. ”

"Naturally, my whereabouts are not so easy to inquire about, so it is more logical to meet by chance. Luo Kui's eyes were slight, and there was unbearable sadness, it turned out that after a few years of separation, he actually wanted to use deception and scheming to cover up the truth of the encounter, after all, it was not what it used to be.

The shopkeeper refilled some hot water into the lamp and said softly, "Oh." He raised his hand and high-fived him three times in a row, and the guy who had been standing quietly outside the door for a long time came in, and he ordered: "You go to the Leping Inn quickly, inquire about the whereabouts of Mo Gongzi at the moment, and return immediately." ”

With the sound of squeaky closing the door, closing a lock of sunlight that had just fallen in, this line of brightness shone into the darkest corner of Luo Kui's heart, where it was like suddenly seeing the bright eyes from the darkness, the stinging pain, Luo Kui thought of the matter of Yangzhou, where did Jingmo come from, she knew best, and naturally knew the fear in his heart, his thoughts drifted to the far and far past, the former self was thin and lifeless, it was Jingmo who came out of the sun, stretched out his warm hands to himself, and pulled himself out of the cold and awe-inspiring stagnant water.

Now he is also shrouded in haze, time passes, identities are exchanged, and he has become the pair of hands in the sun. After a long time, she breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart was depressed: "Grandpa's cause of death, have you found out?" ”

"It's clear, it's the hand of the dead man of the Qu family. The shopkeeper handed over a note: "Master, look, do you want to fight back." ”

Reading it word by word, the heartache swelled like a tide, tears condensed in the bottom of the eyes, Luo Kui put the note on the lamp, slowly ignited it and turned into ashes, and turned into ashes together, and the urge to fight back. She had already guessed the initiator, this note only confirmed the guess in her heart, she endured and endured, and finally shook her head: "Blood debt is naturally to be repaid with blood, but now is not a good opportunity to do it." ”

There is a copper incense burner on the ebony head, the long-necked crane steps on the basalt-shaped stove base, and a disc is on top of the long stretched long neck, on which the ethereal light smoke is as light as mist, a wisp of leisurely and leisurely, and the fragrance is like hibiscus dew, which is directly gripping people's hearts.

Luo Kui's heart hurts slightly, she can endure for a while, but it does not mean that she will endure forever, seeing her flesh and blood relatives leave one by one, even if she has been out of the old things for a long time, she still feels sad and sad, she can't listen to a little bit of words related to the year, and she is afraid of sour nose and miss. It turned out that these people had never changed in the past, she was just waiting, waiting for the final outbreak.

The shopkeeper carefully handed over a piece of paper again, and opened his mouth softly: "Master, General Su sent a message here, he and Master Huang have escorted Master Huang to Yongzhou, let the master rest assured, General Su said that he will not come back for the time being, and tell the master to take care." ”

After gargling with the cup, pinching the handkerchief and wiping the lips, Luo Kui took the plain note, looked at it carefully, his heart was slightly warm, and he couldn't help but look and smile, and smiled like a flower: "The god complained about me, saying that he had added dozens of mouths for nothing, and he wanted to pay for food." ”

The shopkeeper also smiled and bowed his head again and again: "Yes, it's all half-sized children when they can eat, but I'm afraid that they are going to eat the general altar, isn't Mr. Bai Ji going to have a headache." ”

"This time Su Zi and the cocoon god made a move, Qu Tianxiong will definitely be aware of it. Luo Kui pondered for a moment, and her thin smile was as sharp as a knife's edge.

The shopkeeper's voice was low: "The master's expectation is not bad, Mr. Bai Ji sent a message, there have been many strange spies in Poria Mountain recently, and the master of the sect asked what the master meant." ”

Luo Kui's eyes narrowed slightly, and a fierce color crossed the thin smile shadow: "In this case, pass on my order, from now on, the mountain is completely prohibited, and those who enter and exit need to hold my warrant, if there are strangers who enter the mountain, they will be killed." ”

"Don't leave one behind. ”

"Not a single one remains. ”

The shopkeeper bowed down and said with a solemn expression: "Oh." ”

Luo Kui raised her hand, there were ripples between the sleeves of her clothes, showing an embarrassed man's figure, she muttered: "This person's name is Wen Yuan, maybe it's a pseudonym, I met him at the door of Hehuan Pavilion today, he will make the phoenix Yu Fei this ancient body method, you send someone to find his foothold in Qingzhou City, find out the origin of this person, remember, act carefully, his cultivation is not low, don't alarm him." ”

"Well, my subordinates have written it down. ”

The location of the streamer is Luo Kui personally chosen, facing the main street of Shengze, but more than half a zhang back inward than the neighboring shops on the left and right, the front door is narrow and only allows one person to enter and exit, and the long window behind the head is very large, the window edge is extremely short, the weak woman can also jump out of the window by stepping on a chair, going out is a secluded alley with a lot of forks, and then going back to the main street after walking a few steps, it is really a convenient and unobtrusive good place.

"The master, the shopkeeper, inquired. After a while, the guy pushed the door in, bowed down and said: "Shicai Mo Gongzi bought a fake on Shengze Street and was beaten, but fortunately he met the eldest girl of the Qu family and sent him to the hospital to bandage, and now he has returned to the Leping Inn." ”

Luo Kui changed the fragrance of forgetting worries, this fragrance is quiet, smelling it carefully but not smelling the fragrance, only feeling refreshed, she waved her hand gently, this person is complicated one after another, the intertwined must be carefully distinguished, since Jingmo is temporarily unhindered, he will not care about him, after the matter at hand is clean, looking for a good opportunity to meet, then lowered his eyes and said gently: "Send someone to guard in the Leping Inn, if there is any movement, come to report to me immediately." ”

The shopkeeper should claim to be so, bow down and say, "Master, Mr. Gui is here." ”

Luo Kui's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared in her cold eyes: "Please." ”

The door creaked open, and a middle-aged man walked out of the hazy sunlight, with a short beard on his chin, his eyes squinted slightly as if he hadn't woken up. ”

Luo Kui also had mixed feelings, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a smile: "Sit down, sit down, we haven't seen each other for four years." ”

The years are in a hurry, like a white horse passing by, a farewell of four years, goodbye is no longer a person, Du Gui looked at Luo Kui deeply, there was a hidden water in his slightly narrowed eyes, his eyes were sad, and his voice was choked: "Master, I am thinner than before." He choked up and said only one sentence, and then he couldn't say any more.

Luo Kui smiled: "You, everything is fine." ”

Du Gui slowed down for a long time, took a deep breath, and then smiled as usual: "Okay, everything is fine with my subordinates." ”

Luo Kui bowed his head deeply: "With you taking care of the affairs of Tianmu Kingdom, I can stay in Qingzhou without worries, come back this time, stay a few more days, and when Du Heng comes back from Nanqi Kingdom, your uncle and nephew will talk well." ”

Du Gui nodded: "Huh." He looked back, his eyes faint, and swept the faces of the shopkeeper and his fellow man, and the two of them retreated in a knowing manner. His expression was solemn, his body leaned forward slightly, and he said in a low voice: "This time, my subordinates secretly escorted Mo Gongzi into Beijing, and only then did I know that Mo Gongzi had received three girls in Yangzhou, and he also had some dewy love with the girl in the Dark Fragrance Pavilion. He hesitated, and after thinking for a long time, he said with difficulty: "Mo Gongzi also had a secret marriage with a girl who had a room. ”

The surrounding breath suddenly tightened, becoming low and abnormal, Luo Kui's heart seemed to be punctured by something, Mu Mu was stunned for a while, and then suddenly realized that he and Jingmo had only met once when he was a child, even if there was a marriage contract, he didn't need to guard himself like jade, after all, he should have been married a long time ago at this age, and it was understandable to accept a few rooms, just an heir, she sighed faintly:" Although it is common for the son of a large family to receive a few rooms before he gets married, it is a scandal to give birth to a child. ”

Du Gui went to Luo Kui's father when he was young, and later several children and nephews were born, and they were all sent to the Shui family to be raised, and then he watched Luo Kui be born, from childhood to difficult growth, in this long time, the two of them are nominally master and servant, but they have long been close relatives, naturally I hope that her life will go smoothly, for this matter, he sighed: "Yes, Master Jing did not let Mo Gongzi know that the girl was pregnant, and sent him out of the house directly, and a bowl of abortion pills was poured down, but the medicine was heavy, and the two lives were gone." He sighed lightly: "When the Beijing Mansion was in turmoil, in order to protect the blood of the Beijing Mansion, the old master made a marriage contract for his children. ”

Luo Kui turned sideways slightly, approaching the fragrance of forgetting worries and condensing the gods, counteracting the bloody meaning with a quiet atmosphere, and was silent for a long time.
