Chapter 9: A Few Leave and a Few Stay
[Stalls fortune tellers, plain hands add incense]
Ugly slave, tears
- Blowing the breeze
The blue waves are delicate and broken with the water, and they are sad day and night.
Day and night are sad, always covering the sludge with moth eyebrows.
The cold rain in Lin'an is tear-jerking, where do the sisters go.
Where do the sisters return, and show their joy to the night dark.
————
In the early morning, Lin'an City was bustling with people.
The gate guards slowly opened the imposing gates.
The figures of an old man and a young man appeared in front of the city gate.
The young man was about ten years old, and his small face was full of mud, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but he could only faintly see a long scar on the right side of his face. A washed gray cloth wrapped around his thin body.
I saw that he was riding a donkey at the moment, holding a cucumber in his hand, snapping and biting, and looking at the old man angrily while eating.
On the saddle of the donkey's body, there is also a black-edged and white-faced banner.
On both sides of the banner there are: "The white-clothed god calculates, and if you don't want money, you don't want money", nine handwriting of different sizes like snakes.
The old man was holding a handful of gray dust with missing silk in one hand, gray hair, uneven beard, a crown of hair on his head crookedly, and a gray robe full of patches, with a few holes faintly visible on it.
"Old fellow, I've had enough of you!"
The voice is as crisp as a yellow bird, but it is a girl.
"Tell me about you, the fortune teller is not effective, you are more cowardly than anyone else in fighting, you don't have enough to eat, but you still love to get drunk and gamble and eat meat, it's been almost two years, what about my sister? I haven't even seen a single hair!"
"I'm so stupid that I can fall for the evil of you old man!"
The girl said hatefully, and she was especially angry, and smashed the cucumber that still had more than half of her hand in her hand towards the old face of the fortune teller.
The fortune teller reached out to catch the flying cucumber, smiled, and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth.
"No hurry, no hurry. ”
The fortune teller opened his mouth to bite off a large piece of cucumber, ate it with a click, and stuffed the remaining half into his cross-body bag.
"Eh, why did a cucumber fall from the sky, breakfast and lunch. ”
The girl was so angry that she turned her head and stopped looking at the fortune teller with a strange smile on the side.
Since following this fortune teller, it is common to sleep in the open every day, and not to take the next meal. Every time I was hungry, I let myself go to someone else's vegetable garden to steal turnips and greens.
Once discovered, the old guy ran backwards faster than a rabbit.
It's really hateful!
When the girl thought of the sad place, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she rubbed her hands vigorously several times before she eased down.
In the past two years, he has not cried less, at first he cried loudly, and then he cried silently, but it had no effect on the old way, and there were always only three sentences in his mouth.
When he cried, he dealt with it:
"Don't cry, don't cry. ”
As soon as he said that he was looking for his sister, he looked like he was underwhelmed and said:
"No hurry, no hurry. ”
I really saw that I was in a hurry, so I ushered in his sentence:
"It's coming, it's coming. ”
The fortune teller looked at the girl with red eyes, waved the dust in his hand, stretched out one hand, and patted the girl's shoulder.
"Ugly slave, don't ......."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the girl's hateful voice.
"I didn't cry!"
slapped the donkey's neck hard, and the girl drove the donkey into the city first.
An old man and a young man entered the city, only to see people coming and going, the fortune teller's nose sniffed, and then took the girl to the direction of the morning market.
In the morning market of Lin'an City, the cries of selling came one after another, and the smell of breakfast hit me, making the stomachs of the old and young people who had only eaten a few cucumbers non-stop.
The fortune teller looked at the dozen or so steamed buns on the side, swallowed his saliva, and then looked at the ugly slave with a trace of pity, but saw the ugly slave shaking his head again and again, and said:
"If you want to go yourself, I won't do it. ”
"Also, I won't follow you in the future!"
The ugly slave turned over and jumped off the donkey, and tumbled into the sea of people, and there was no trace.
The fortune teller smiled helplessly, touched his stomach, looked at the steamed bun shop on the side, and reluctantly walked to the side and set up a hexagram stall.
......
Yanyu Building, Tianxiang Pavilion.
Lian Fang'er walked all the way, hurriedly walked to Hua Jieyu, and said:
"Childe, Yu Renxiong is here. ”
Hua Jieyu's eyes froze.
"With him, there are also Liao Huaji, Liu Jianghe and Liu Hanzhou!"
"What?!"
Hua Jieyu suddenly rose with a touch of surprise.
"Liao Xianfeng, how could he come with Yu Renxiong? Liu Jianghe and Liu Hanzhou are still alive?"
"Take them to Lanyue Pavilion first, and inform Li San and Yuanba in addition. ”
Hua Jieyu immediately got up and walked to the small bamboo building.
At this time, three days have passed since the day of Hua Jieyu's poisoning. Lian Fang'er went to Shuiyue Xiaoju several times to look for Liao Huaji, but there was no one to be seen.
Such a big thing happened in Yanyulou, it is impossible for him not to know, and suddenly, Hua Jieyu felt a trace of abnormality, but he didn't think deeply, since Liao Huaji may have something to do not be in Lin'an.
As expected by Hua Jieyu, Lian Fang'er has been busy in the past few days, and a group of white and blue servants and talented people have come to ask for their resignation, and Lian Fang'er has settled their salaries one by one.
In the end, there was not one left of the white and blue attendants.
To Hua Jieyu's surprise, the talents on the entire third floor were almost gone!
Only Shen Weiran from Lingyin Fang is still there.
The first and second floors are the least crowded because of the food and tea ceremony.
This time it can be described as a big loss of vitality.
Li San brought back an even more shocking piece of news.
Hu Yanchun is dead!
Died under the poison of his own dove.
And the time of poisoning is almost the same as that of myself and others.
As soon as Hu Yanchun died, all the suspicions turned to the Drunken Immortal Tower.
At this moment, Yu Renxiong's arrival seems to be planning a showdown.
......
Small bamboo building.
Er Gazi was sweating in the bamboo forest and practicing swordsmanship, while Lian Xiang'er was sitting next to the rockery holding a white brocade and threading needles.
Between the ups and downs of the hands, the splendid nature is natural.
At this time, on the brocade, there is already an orchid, which seems to be unopened, and will not bloom.
There is also a flower bone, slightly lower, and the two stand side by side, which is quite aura.
Occasionally, his hands were sore, and when he shook his jade hand, he looked at Ergazi's clumsy practice movements, so he secretly covered his mouth and chuckled, and continued to embroider.
On the second floor of the Yanyu Building, a small jade stove is surrounded by cigarettes, emitting a refreshing fragrance.
Yun Xuan sat on top of the bamboo collapse, and opposite him, sat Shen Weiran in a purple gauze skirt.
At such a close distance, Yun Xuan could smell the faint aroma unique to her.
Xuan Qi flowed, slowly swimming along Shen Weiran's meridians.
Shen Weiran's eyes closed slightly, and a faint flush quietly hit the root of his ears. Although it is separated by a veil, it also looks more delicate and moving.
After a short while, Yun Xuan withdrew his palms and slowly retracted his momentum.
"Well, one more time, and you'll be back to normal. ”
Shen Weiran opened his eyes when he heard this, stretched out his arm, and gently stroked his cuffs, but saw that there was only a faint trace left on the forearm of the mutton fat and beautiful jade.
Shen Weiran's beautiful eyes sparkled, and a touch of gratitude emerged. Immediately got up and took a deep look at Yun Xuan again.
"Childe's great grace, I will not dare to forget. ”
The voice is clear and gentle, like a cold spring, warm with a hint of coolness.
"Wei Ran promised that after the injury is healed, he is willing to do one thing for his son. Shen Weiran's eyes were firm.
"Not necessarily. ”
"Yun is just doing it, the girl doesn't have to take it to heart. ”
Yun Xuan smiled, unimpressed.
Shen Weiran didn't speak anymore, walked straight to the jade incense burner, and added a new incense.
Immediately took the yaoqin, knelt on one side of the bamboo platform, the green jade fingers undulated, on the thirteen strings or pick or close, a song "Nian Jun'en" slowly played.
The smoke is swirling, and the song is moving.
Lian Xiang'er listened to the beautiful sound of the piano coming from the attic, and while she was curious, she also admired Yun Xuan even more.
can melt the coldest iceberg in the building, Childe is really powerful.
Silently calculated in his heart, this should be the fourth time that Shen Weiran came to find Yun Gongzi.
Every time, the two of them were alone in the room, but they didn't know what they were doing, and then after a while, they would hear Shen Weiran's piano sound.
When the turmoil passes, I must inform the playboy that maybe Yun Gongzi will have more than one wife.
A glimmer of anticipation flashed in his eyes, and then it darkened again.
Yun Gongzi is such a handsome (zun) person, I'm afraid that only Sister Weiran can match it.
I wonder if Yun Gongzi has lifted her veil?
I really want to see what Sister Weiran looks like......
When he was thinking about it and was stunned, he suddenly saw Hua Xie Yu walking towards Xiaolou.
Lian Xiang'er hurriedly put down her hands and went to greet Hua and explain her words.
Hua Jieyu walked all the way to the front of the small building, and suddenly heard the sound of the piano, and was immediately surprised.
looked at Lian Xiang'er, who greeted her, and asked:
"Xiang'er, this piano, but Yun Gongzi played it?"
Lian Xiang'er hurriedly shook her head, and then said:
"It's Sister Weiran who is inside, she doesn't know why these days, at this hour every day, she will come over to play the piano for Yun Gongzi. ”
Hua Xie Yu was slightly stunned, then smiled and said:
"These two people actually secretly Chen Cang behind my back. ”
He immediately walked towards the second floor.
Lian Xiang'er stuck out her tongue cutely in the back, originally afraid that Hua Xie Yu would blame herself for not reporting the news in time, but at this moment she was quietly relieved.
The two slowly stepped on the bamboo ladder on the second floor, Hua Jieyu stood outside the door, looked inward through the gap in the bamboo door, and saw Shen Weiran kneeling on the side of the attic, playing lightly, and the sound of the piano flowing, clear and pleasant.
Yun Xuan was sitting on the bed, with a small bamboo and wood table, and at this moment Yun Xuan was pouring two cups of full tea.
I only heard Yun Xuan say:
"Dude, how about you try the tea brewed by Yun?"
The sound of the piano paused, and then continued.
Hua Jieyu was slightly embarrassed, Jun's face was slightly red, and he pushed the door in, and at the same time exclaimed:
"Brother Yun is really elegant, you must know that the only person who can make us, Miss Shen, move the hearts of mortals, is Brother Yun. ”
Yun Xuan smiled and shook his head, handing the cup in his hand to Hua Jieyu, who was sitting on the other side.
"The dude laughed, I don't know if I came this time, but things have progressed?"
Hua Xie didn't answer, first sniffed at the hot air gushing out of the teacup, and a unique fragrance of Tianxiang tea came, refreshing people's hearts.
Although he usually drinks a lot, the tea Ye Xuan makes today seems to be different from what he tasted in the past.
I took a sip of tea again, only to feel a burst of sweetness in my throat, followed by a warm current swimming all over my body, which was extremely comfortable.
Hua Jieyu exclaimed:
"Good tea, this ...... Is this still Tianxiang tea, how did you do it? Brother Ye can brew it to such a level, I didn't expect you to be a master in it. ”
"It's very simple, when boiling tea, you can use internal force to peel off the impurities one by one. My internal strength is a little special, so it may be a little different when I drink it. ”
The sound of the piano stops suddenly.
The three people, three pairs of eyes all looked at Yun Xuan in shock.
Hua Jieyu didn't control it well, but he was choked by the tea in his mouth, and he suddenly coughed dryly, so he was not uncomfortable.
When Yun Xuan saw this scene, he immediately became puzzled.
"What's the problem?"
"You...... You really think that your internal force is Chinese cabbage, how much power does this have to consume?!"
Hua Xie Yujun's face turned red, and under the excitement, even his voice was a little sharper.
"Uh. ”
Looking at the uncharacteristic flower explanation, Yun Xuan was a little stunned, he just used a trace of Xuan power, far less exaggerated than he said.
But it's not easy to explain the special skills of his skills, and he said at the moment:
"It's okay, just be satisfied. ”
"The elixir given by the son a few days ago has benefited Ye a lot, and the right should be regarded as a reward. ”
"Satisfied!"
"I'm so satisfied!"
"I can't drink this tea anymore, it's too precious, I'd better keep it. ”
Hua Xie Yu didn't know the reason, but when Ye Xuan's internal force was excessively consumed. Hurriedly chose a porcelain bottle on the bamboo frame on the side, carefully poured all the tea in the pot into it, and sealed it.
There was a look of envy in Lian Xiang'er's eyes, and a hint of surprise flashed in Shen Weiran's eyes, and after a while, she regained her calmness and wanted to continue playing, but she didn't know how to play it, so she could only take the Yaoqin and stand aside.
I saw Hua Xie Yu take out a jade box again, took out two of the white Xiao Yuan Dan and threw them directly to Yun Xuan, and then took out the tea leaves in the pot and carefully placed them in the jade box, and then sat down again.
Yun Xuan took the two Xiao Yuan Dan, and his heart was stunned.
.......
Lanyue Pavilion.
Hua Xie said, Yun Xuan and his party of four people rushed up.
Along the way, Lian Xiang'er's thoughts fluctuated, and the playboy, who has always been calm and wise, seemed to have changed his mood very obviously since Yun Xuan came, and seemed to have lost his former calm and indifference.
And...... It seems that there is a foul language......
Don't......?
Lian Xiang'er shuddered, and her eyes became strange when she looked at her old master.
Shen Weiran's follow-up made Hua Jieyu a little surprised, and then looked at Yun Xuan beside him, then at Shen Weiran, and smiled, but he didn't stop it.
To Yun Xuan's surprise, Lanyue Pavilion was not built in the Yanyu Building, but on a huge painting boat that could accommodate hundreds of people on the riverside.
In this way, if there is a fight, you can also let go of your hands and feet.
When everyone got on the boat, the hull of the boat moved, and slowly sailed towards the center of the river.
I saw that the boat was divided into two groups of people at the moment, one was Li San, Lian Fang'er, and Nie Yuanba, and the other was Yu Renxiong, Liao Huaji, Liu Jianghe and Liu Hanzhou.
Behind the four of them, there were three other men, two middle-aged and one bald old man. It seems that it should be the guest and worship of the Drunken Immortal Building.
As soon as he got on the boat, he heard Li San's scolding voice. Listening to its general meaning, it means that Liao Huaji and the three of them have wolf hearts and dog lungs, exterminate human nature, and lose their conscience.
Hua Jieyu stood tall and said indifferently:
"Boss Yu, since you're out, let's get straight to the point. ”
Yu Renxiong smiled slightly and said:
"Just what I wanted. ”
"I believe that the situation has been seen very clearly, and the purpose of our coming here this time is to take over the Yanyu Building. ”
"To tell you the truth, all the talented people in your Yanyu Building, including your so-called white and blue attendants, have now joined my Drunken Immortal Building. ”
"As for Liao's offering, it is still the worship of Yanyu Building, and Mr. Liu and Mr. Liu are still the guests of Yanyu Building. ”
"I say that, is that clear enough?"
Yu Renxiong finished speaking one by one slowly, and then looked at Hua Jieyu with a trace of contempt on his face.
"Understood. ”
It was not as violent as Yu Renxiong imagined, Hua Jie's tone was as calm as water, and there was no expression on his face.
Yu Renxiong's eyelids jumped, and then he calmed down again, there were two top masters sitting beside him, what was there to worry about.
"I want to know, what conditions did Yu Renxiong offer you to betray me?"
Hua Jieyu looked at the Liao Huaji on the side.
"The old man has been at the top for many years, and he knows that his time is short, but he also wants to rush to the legendary transformation realm and increase his life for another thirty years. ”
"What Boss Yu gave me was all the Xiao Yuandan shares of Yanyu Building. ”
Liao Huaji's voice was neither sad nor joyful, and it seemed to be a matter of course.
"Understood. ”
The corners of Hua Jieyu's mouth rose, evoking a touch of good-looking amplitude.
He smiled.
Underneath the smile, there is a thick murderous intent.
"The matter of poisoning, as well as the matter of Wang Tian, should Boss Yu also say a few words?"
Wang Tian is the guest of Yanyulou who brought people to transport wine for the first time.
"We didn't do the poisoning, but I have to thank the people who poisoned them, if it wasn't for this poisoning, I wouldn't have had to work hard. ”
"As for Wang Tian, he is loyal, I gave him three times the conditions of your Yanyu Building, but he didn't even agree, if you send someone to the bottom of the river now, maybe you can be lucky and see his corpse. ”
Yu Renxiong gently touched his big belly with one hand, with an expression of victory.
"Poison, didn't you order it?"
Li San couldn't help but jump out.
"I did a good job of poisoning, and Wu Da and Xu Sheng had already agreed to take refuge in me, where did I have a reason to poison them?"
When everyone saw that what he said was reasonable, they believed it a little, but their doubts increased.
It's not the poison downstairs of the drunken immortals, and Hu Yanchun, the only one who has this poison, is also dead, so whose act is this poison?
What is his purpose?
"I wonder what the playboy is thinking about?"
Yu Renxiong asked no matter what everyone thought.
"Okay, I promise you. ”
Hua Jieyu's words made everyone present stunned.
"Childe!?"
"Childe can't!"
But the tone of the listening flower explanation remained unchanged, and continued:
"I promised to take over the Drunken Immortal Tower. ”
"You!"
Yu Renxiong felt that he had misheard.
"What are you talking about? I want you to hand over the Yanyu Building to me!"
"You heard me right, what I said is, I promised you to take over the drunken immortal building, do you understand?"
Hua Xie said slowly.
Yu Renxiong's face turned pale with anger, and he pointed at Hua Jieyu with a trembling hand, and spit out three good words in a row.
"Good! good!"
"In that case, then don't blame someone for being ruthless. ”
Yu Renxiong's eyes showed cold murderous intent, turned to Liao Huaji and the bald old man, bowed down and said:
"There are two worshippers who make a move, the matter is over, and someone must fulfill his promise. ”
Liao Huaji and the bald old man nodded slightly, and then stood up.
"Let me do it. After all, Mr. Liao has crossed paths with them, so it's hard to start. ”
The bald old man who spoke, dressed in a short brown shirt, looked neat and neat.
"Then you're in trouble, sir. ”
Liao Huaji's old face showed a hint of gratitude, and he retreated.
I saw that the famous old man flipped his palm, pulled out the dagger on his waist, and slowly walked towards Hua Jieyu and the others.
Hua Jieyu is still light and light, and he doesn't think so.
The second pity is like facing a great enemy, and they have drawn their long swords one after another, and their swords are pointed at them.
Li San took out a strange-shaped weapon, shaped like a dagger, and the blade was like a crescent moon. But it was the inner blade of the crescent moon, and the cold light was shining.
Li San has already held his will to die, his life is left by Hua Jieyu, no matter what he says today, he will definitely protect him.
This is called, the blue wave river should not be in the sky, how to steal life in front of the smoke and rain building.
