Volume 1 The Traveler Chapter 5 Anyang in March is full of flowers

In Anyang in March, the flowers are blooming like brocade, and the tourists are weaving, which is the most lively time of the year.

A group of people and horses galloped in the spring, from far and near.

The young man in fresh clothes and angry horses at the head was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and there were retinues behind him, with a bitter face.

Who dares to ride on this bustling street in the city, except for the one from the Zhizhou family, who else can there be?

Lin Changqing, his parents gave him a Qingling name, but it is rumored that he is the No. 1 gentleman in the market, and a group of fox friends and dog friends all day long, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling are proficient, it is said that he has stayed in the Qinglou at the age of ten, and he also regards the strange county lord of the King of Yuan'an as a fellow person, but it is a pity that Lin Zhizhou has a reputation in Shuchuan, but he gave birth to such a second ancestor son, and the reputation accumulated in half a life was almost ruined.

The pedestrians around avoided it, but the young man didn't care, "Uncle Wen, I heard that the peach blossoms in this area are the worst, but is it true?"

The middle-aged man he called Uncle Wen smiled bitterly: "Second young man, slow down, if you bump into someone, it's not easy for the master to explain."

"If you don't say it, won't he know?" Lin Changqing turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to his subordinates, and said as he walked: "The eldest sister is making some mess all day long, refusing to leave the house, and I don't want to think about it, this peach blossom will be thanked in a few days, and there will be no place to see it when the time comes." ”

"If the eldest lady knew the young master's intentions, she would be extremely happy. Uncle Wen said with a smile.

Lin Changqing rolled his eyes angrily, "Come on, I still remember the twenty pieces of flogging last time, if the eldest sister didn't say it, my father would have punished me? ”

"The eldest lady is also kind. Uncle Wen hurriedly explained.

Lin Changqing didn't listen at all, walked two steps quickly to a lush peach tree, stretched out his hand and played with it twice, then pulled out the sword at his waist and cut off one of the peach blossom branches, "Dig this tree for me, plant it in my backyard, move quickly, don't make everyone in the house know." ”

After speaking, he twisted the peach blossom branch, got on the horse and walked away, leaving a group of people with sad faces.

The young man hurried all the way back to the Lin Mansion, but when he saw the middle door wide open, it was rare to be noisy.

He stopped one of them and asked, "What's going on?"

The waiter said: "The three elders of Tangjiabao came to visit, and they intended to accept the eldest lady to enter, and the master instructed to make the mansion more lively." ”

Tangjiabao can be said to be the source of the world's organs, and it is also considered to be the earliest force to use Gewu Zhizhi, martial arts as the mainstay, ingenuity as a supplement, and has a reputation among the people and the rivers and lakes, but it has never been involved with the court.

Lin Changqing's face was suspicious, "When did my father actually open his mind?"

The waiter bowed his head and said nothing.

"Where?"

"Lobby. ”

The boy waved him down, turned and ran into the verandah.

Looking at the lobby from a distance, who knew that his father happened to come out and chatted with a middle-aged man he didn't know, and the old lady followed him, which seemed to be an old acquaintance.

Lin Changqing secretly said that it was not good, lowered his head and pretended not to see it, and wanted to leave from the side road.

"Bastard, when you see the guests here, don't you know how to come over to greet you?" Lin Zhixing was very sharp-eyed, swept over at a glance, and scolded.

The young man sighed in his heart that this was the case, but he didn't dare to slip away anymore, threw away the peach branch, came over and bowed, and said, "Changqing has seen Uncle Tang." ”

Tang Wuming waved his hand, signaling that it was okay.

The two adults chatted a few more words, and Lin Xiaoxuan was a little tired, so she confessed and left.

Lin Zhixing knew that his girl was frail, and waved his hand to let her retreat, and Lin Changqing immediately said that he would send his sister back to the room.

Lin Zhixing glared at him, "Frizzy, where have you read all these sage books over the years?" ”

The boy immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "Father taught me a lesson. ”

When Lin Zhixing saw him in such a posture, he was so angry that he stretched out his hand to fight. However, the middle-aged man next to him smiled and was relieved, "Since Changqing knows that his mistakes can be corrected, he will do it." ”

Lin Zhixing didn't know his temperament, he said everything he had to say, but he didn't keep him anymore, waved him away, and smiled bitterly at the middle-aged man beside him: "There is no way to teach a son, let Brother Tang laugh." ”

Tang Wuming said with a smile: "How can there be a young man who is not frivolous, at the age of you and me, what is the difference between you and me, even in the imperial capital, and him." ”

Lin Zhixing nodded and sighed: "Back then, it was like yesterday, you and I have been separated for 20 years, and today we will meet again, and we will be a big white." ”

After speaking, they made a gesture of please, and the two of them smiled and walked deeper into the house.

On the other side, the two sisters and brothers went to the craftsman's workshop, Lin Xiaoxuan picked up a piece of glass and looked at the other piece of glass in front of him, and said casually: "Where did you go to mess around today?"

Lin Changqing saw that most of the beast charcoal in the stove was burned, so he added two more pieces and said, "Sister, what kind of outer disciple did my father really ask you to go to Tangjiabao?"

Lin Xiaoxuan put down the glass, glanced at him, and said, "I'm fine at home, Tang seniors and my father are world friends, what's wrong?"

"My father has always followed the rules, how can he have anything to do with the people in the rivers and lakes?" Lin Changqing said in surprise.

Lin Xiaoxuan smiled and stopped talking.

Lin Changqing probably also felt a little bored discussing the problems of the previous generation, so he smiled, "Sister also wants to go?"

Lin Xiaoxuan frowned slightly, "Mr. said, Gewu Zhizhi, no one in the world dares to call the first except Tangjiabao, since I have chosen this path, I want to get out of the way." ”

Lin Changqing bared his teeth and had nothing to say.

A few months ago, there were dozens of corpses in the Ningzi wine shop, and the owner's house was nowhere to be found, and the villagers all guessed that they had been attacked by wild beasts, but they couldn't find it for a few days, and the young man surnamed Ning had no relatives and neighbors here, so he gave up, and he knew that it was nearly a month later.

"In the past two days, someone will come to the army, saying that it is to discuss your enlistment, but I guess it has something to do with the matter of Mr.'s liquor shop, you should pay attention to one or two. Lin Xiaoxuan hesitated and said again.

"Got it. Lin Changqing said helplessly.

The weather in March is no longer as cold as winter, Lin Changqing felt a little stuffy, but he saw that his sister happened to push the window open and saw the scenery outside the window, so he remembered the matter, "Sister, the weather will be warmer in a few days, you go out for a walk more, and the peach blossoms outside are more delicate than people." ”

Lin Xiaoxuan nodded, looked at the green plants and flowers outside the window, and said softly, "It's okay, I won't see it in a few days." ”

Lin Changqing grinned helplessly, but he knew his sister's sad temperament, so he didn't say much.

"Miss, Miss, Ziling, Ziling is open. At this time, a maid in a floral dress ran in with a shout.

"Hmm...... Really?" Lin Xiaoxuan was slightly stunned, and instantly became excited.

"What is it?" Lin Changqing asked confusedly.

"A fruit like a stone, it is coming out. Lin Xiaoxuan said happily, "Let's go, go and have a look." ”

"It's just fruit. Lin Changqing pursed his lips, but he was dragged and obediently followed.

Soon, the three of them ran into Lin Xiaoxuan's room, and a wooden box on the windowsill was emitting a light purple glow.

Immediately after, there was a soft click, the glow dissipated, and a small purple insect flew out of the box.

Lin Changqing was dumbfounded.
