Chapter 259: Ten Mile Slope
After Zhao Xuan left, Shen Yun returned to the inner room, took out the military book from the treasure bag, and looked at it from the beginning again.
Before, he read this kind of books as miscellaneous books, and he didn't read them very carefully. Just now, seeing that Zhao Xuan won the reward, he was happier than a child getting his favorite candy, and he felt that these miscellaneous books were actually quite useful and worth savoring.
After dinner, the crowd dispersed. Qi Bo deliberately stayed and reported truthfully: "Master Shen, I couldn't inquire about Shilipo." ”
Shen Yun waved his hand: "It's okay." ”
If Yugoufang City is really Monk's Fang City, where can it be easily inquired about? Moreover, in the past few days, he has been playing with that flower note, feeling that it is an old thing that has been around for some years. Alas, after many years, I don't know if Yugoufang City still exists?
Thinking about it this way, the desire to inquire is not as urgent as before.
Take your time.
Two days later, Zhao Xuan hurriedly came to report: "Lord, last night, someone sneakily entered and exited Zhang's mansion in the middle of the night. I've checked, and that person is a handyman in the internal affairs courtyard of Tiger Leap Hall, and he has been on an errand in Tiger Leap Hall for almost a year. ”
Shen Yun ordered: "Don't alarm him, continue to stare." See if he still has accomplices. ”
"Yes. ”
Shen Yun said again: "Master Zhang's side can't relax. ”
Zhao Xuan replied: "There is a yard for rent over there. From a room on the second floor, you can see the back door of Zhang's house. I sent a competent man to pretend to be a merchant from another place, and rented the yard as a warehouse. My people live there and stare at the Zhang family all day. ”
Afraid that the Zhang family would be suspicious, he really transferred a batch of goods to be collected in that yard.
When Shen Yun heard this, his heart moved, and he had an idea: "I want to go over and have a look." You can arrange it for me. ”
"Yes. ”
In the afternoon, Shen Yun disguised himself as a buddy, followed Zhao Xuan, who was also disguised, and went to the mansion together - speaking of disguise, Shen Yun had to praise Zhao Xuan's talent in this regard. He only taught it once, and Zhao Xuan got started. It's only been a few days, and after Zhao Xuan's disguise, even he can't find a big flaw.
After seeing the house that Zhao announced as a warehouse, Shen Yun couldn't help but praise in his heart: This person is simply a natural secret agent!
He felt like he had found a treasure.
It's just that Zhang's mansion is much bigger than he expected. From the room on the second floor, he could only see most of the Zhang family's backyard. However, the main hospital is not under surveillance. He had a little regret.
"Can you find a hidden place around and see the entire Zhang Mansion?" he asked Zhao Xuan.
Zhao Xuan was shocked in his heart, and said secretly: Could it be that the lord wants to sneak into Zhang's mansion?
"I'll look for it. ”
Shen Yun nodded, turned around from behind the window, and casually glanced at the goods stacked in the room: "What are those?" exuding a faint scent of plum blossoms.
"Oh, it's a new batch of notes. Zhao Xuan was truthful.
"Flower note?" Shen Yun's eyes lit up, "Open it, I'll take a look." ”
"Yes. Zhao Xuan didn't understand his intentions, but it didn't prevent him from walking over quickly and opening a bag with a "bang".
Shen Yun picked up the top two and looked at them carefully.
The two pieces of paper are exactly the same!
He doesn't know how to write flowers. I saw that the pattern on the flower note in the library was very exquisite, and I thought that each flower note was different. Now that he knows, even if he finds out the origin of the note, it will be useless. Because the flower notes are also shipped in batches. It was impossible for him to find out the person who wrote the line through the provenance of the note.
That's it. No. He sighed inwardly and put down the flower note in his hand. Thinking that Zhao Xuan was also a native of Xiandu, he asked casually: "Zhao Xuan, have you heard of Shilipo?"
"Shilipo?" Zhao Xuan was surprised, "You also know Shilipo?"
He knew! It was really time to step through the iron shoes and find nowhere to go! Shen Yun suddenly came to his senses: "Where is Shilipo?"
Well, it seems like two different things. Zhao Xuan was extremely embarrassed: "The 'Shilipo' I know is a famous flower note player more than fifty years ago. ”
Shen Yun was slightly stunned: It's a person's name......
He silently recited the words on the flower note again in his heart, and he said in his heart: Could it be that I was wrong at the beginning, Shilipo is not a place name?
Still don't give up. He took out the flower note from the treasure bag and handed it to Zhao Xuan: "Look at it." ”
Zhao Xuan took it with both hands, and after looking at it carefully, he said with certainty: "This flower note is also from the hand of a name." She is Shilipo's confidante of the red powder, called 'Red Butterfly', and later generations are called 'Mrs. Red Butterfly'. I also have a few handmade notes made by the two of them at home. The above line of words is written by Mrs. Red Butterfly herself. It's just that Yugoufang City has never heard of it. ”
Hearing him say this, Shen Yun felt that this flower note should be a letter written by Mrs. Red Butterfly to her lover Shilipo. It's just that how did it appear in the pile of old books in Tiger Leap Hall?
"Lady Red Butterfly is a warrior?" he asked again.
Zhao Xuan nodded: "Lady Red Butterfly is a high-level martial artist. According to legend, it was when she was a martial artist in Huyuetang that she formed a bad relationship with Shilipo......" Speaking of this, he looked at the immature black face of his lord with some confusion - how old is the lord! This kind of romantic old news, really want to tell the lord?
Shen Yun was puzzled: "Why didn't you say it?"
Zhao Xuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue: "Shilipo and Mrs. Red Butterfly are said to have been engaged later. However, on the day of marriage, Shilipo suddenly disappeared.
When the news reached the woman's house, Mrs. Red Butterfly was angry and rushed to the man's house with a sword to settle the account. No, she had a secret knot, had a fetal gas, and had a miscarriage in front of many guests of the men's family. So, the settlement failed, but she was saddled with the name of a slut.
After Mrs. Red Butterfly returned, within half a year, she died of depression. Less than two months after Mrs. Red Butterfly's death, Shilipo suddenly returned. When he learns of Lady Red Butterfly's death, he is devastated. It turned out that he disappeared that day because of a last resort. This time I came back to marry Mrs. Red Butterfly.
In the end, with the consent of Mrs. Red Butterfly's family, Shilipo held the spiritual seat of Mrs. Red Butterfly and became a parent. This underworld marriage was extremely grand, and it once caused a sensation in half of the immortal capital. People sighed for it, straight, made people, and lost their lives. It was at this time that the name 'Lady Red Butterfly' spread.
After getting married, Shilipo took the bones of Mrs. Red Butterfly and disappeared again. Since then, there has been no more of his flower note in Xiandu. It is said that he lost his wife and children, was overly sad, saw through the red dust, and became a Taoist monk. More than ten years later, someone still saw him from afar in a Taoist temple in the southern suburbs, saying that the Taoist temple is very supportive, after many years, Shilipo black hair and white robe, and when he married Mrs. Red Butterfly, he is no different from when he married Mrs. Red Butterfly, and he is not old at all. However, these are all after-dinner chats, and they can't be taken seriously. ”
Shen Yun's heart rekindled the flame of hope: Monk! Shilipo is definitely a monk! Otherwise, how can anyone not see his old face after more than ten years? Legend has it that only a monk can do it.
In other words, it is very likely that Yugoufang City is the City of Monks.
Shen Yun tried to ask, "Do you know the name of that Taoist temple?"
Ah, why did the lord still break the casserole and ask the end? Zhao Xuan's eyes flashed a trace of astonishment: "Uh, I don't know." "The gossip after tea and dinner is the gossip of decades ago, how can you know so true?
Shen Yunxin said: It seems that I can only go to the southern suburbs to find out.
