Chapter Thirty-Three: The Words Are Bright
The east was white, a few of us left the tiled house and returned the same way, the atmosphere was a little dull along the way, after walking out of an alley, I couldn't help but ask: "Why is everyone worried?"
Senior Brother sighed bitterly, and took the lead in saying, "I'm thinking about that flower hero, what a person he used to be, but it's a pity that he has become what he is now." β
The tenth aunt tilted her head to look at him, "You just pity the flower hero?"
"Huh?"
"Where's the smoke girl?" said the tenth aunt, "You also remember five years ago, she is not yours, your first ...... First Love......"
"What kind of love?" the senior brother didn't hear clearly, and asked again.
The tenth aunt became uncertain, glanced at me secretly, and asked him in a different way, "Don't you feel pity when you see that beauty is disfigured?"
Now the senior brother understood, "Pity, I pity all the beauties in the world, not to mention the legendary cold beauties." It's just that she exchanged her looks for freedom, and I admire her more than pity. Senior Brother sighed and took a long breath, and his eyes went back and forth between me and Tenth Aunt, "By the way, what are you two always looking at each other in the past two days?"
"Nope. The tenth aunt couldn't help but come to see me again, and was frightened by the senior brother's meaningful "um-" and withdrew her gaze.
"I probably know about the heroic couple, and now the top priority is to find a way out. I changed the subject, "Don't forget, this shouldn't be the town of Lokma. β
"Don't worry, don't we still have the black catcher who asks for the people's life!" The senior brother put his hands behind his head and shouted casually to the figure walking in the front, "Black catcher, there are many strange things here, it's your duty." β
The black catcher stopped to look at him, his expression quite serious, "Yes." All things, Li Yumen will give an explanation. β
Senior brother has never liked people from the government to interfere in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, but the black catcher said so, and he didn't stand back. The three men walked in front in an unusually harmonious manner, and I deliberately slowed down to stand shoulder to shoulder with the man behind me.
"Why don't you speak?" I said to Hu Xiaoer.
"There's one thing I've never figured out," he said. β
"What's the matter?"
Hu Xiaoer touched his chin, "Hua Daxia said that they came here to avoid Shen Sumaung's assassination, so why didn't they carefully dress up in disguise? Almost everyone here knows the Purple Girl, and how similar is Fengyue Tower and Fengyue Pavilion." It was difficult for them to hide in Fengyue Tower without attracting Shen Sumaung's attention. β
"That's what you're talking about. But the book doesn't say that Sunset Town is closed, maybe it's because the news can't get out that they are not afraid. Look at Shen Su's appearance, it seems, it doesn't seem that he has been chased here. β
Hu Xiaoer nodded thoughtfully, "This is also one of the questions, we can find out the strangeness here, why can't Shen Sumaung......?"
"Have you noticed what Hua Rongyue calls this place? "Probably overheard the conversation between me and Hu Xiaoer, the black catcher suddenly turned around and said, "He called this the town of Luoma." β
The tenth aunt was puzzled, "Is there anything wrong with this?"
"It's a big problem. Hu Xiaoer shouted, "I have lived in the inn for a long time, and the shopkeeper knows that there is a place called Sunset Town on the way through Chang'an. β
Shi Gu was still a little confused, "The old fisherman and those drinkers we met earlier all said that this is Luoma Town, and they have lived here since they were children, could it be that they have made a mistake in the book?"
"There's another person who grew up here who doesn't say that. I told her about what I had encountered earlier, "This is the mother of the black catcher, who left here when she was young, and what she said about her childhood was exactly the same as what was written in the book." β
The tenth aunt looked at the black catcher, and the black catcher also nodded, "My mother can prove that this is Sunset Town." β
The senior brother continued: "That's even more strange. People who haven't left Sunset Town have to say that this is Luoma Town, so the caliber is unified, either someone deliberately designed it, or they fell into some kind of Gu magic. β
"Or maybe it's not necessarily Gu magic, but ...... Magic. Surprise flashed on the faces of the group, I thought about it, although it was a bit ridiculous, I still told my previous experience in Fengyue Tower, "I had this feeling when I was in Fengyue Tower, and Hu Xiaoer asked me if I was too drunk or stunned that day, but in fact, it wasn't." At that time, I saw something unusual, I saw my senior brother and my tenth aunt arguing, and I also saw ...... People who are hundreds of miles away are like being trapped in a fantasy world. You also know that this should not be the scenery of Jiangnan, and what I said earlier about how to change the topography here overnight, I only think about it. β
The illusion is obviously too mysterious, the black catcher has no expression on his face and can't see the reaction, Hu Xiaoer and Shigu are obviously still digesting my words, only the senior brother said: "If it is really as Xiaoqi said, there are only two people in the rivers and lakes who can catch up with the illusion in recent years." β
"One is Grandma Gong, whose Tao Mengxiang melts into a mystical fragrance and illusion when it dissolves in water. However, Tao Mengxiang is an evil thing, and everyone who touches it dies. He said, "There is another one that Jiangnan painters have a genius brush." It is said that the painter is a magic brush, and a painting scroll seems to be in the realm, which will also make people lose their minds and never get out of this illusion. β
Hu Xiaoer's eyes lit up, and he asked abruptly: "Black Catcher, what kind of painting did you say you came here to look for, and who is the painter?"
The black catcher was silent, and his face slowly became solemn.
"Is it a painting of a chivalrous horse master?" Hu Xiaoer induced him: "Now we are grasshoppers on a rope, if you say it more carefully, it will be of great benefit to both of us." β
The tenth aunt couldn't help but ask him curiously: "Brother Montenegro?"
The black catcher was silent for a long time, but he couldn't reach the person in front of him, he spoke, "That's right, it's a painting by Ma Shiyou, and the picture scroll is painted with the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River." β
This remark really confirmed Fang Cai's absurd speculation, and I clenched my fists and held my breath to listen to him continue: "The person who reported the case is also Ma Shiyou. The painting was lost three years ago, and it was recently revealed that it was hidden in Sunset Town. I'd heard of his magic pen before, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful. β
"Now it seems that this painting must have been hidden somewhere here by someone with a heart. As long as the paintings are still there, the illusion is still there, and Sunset Town is still Lok Ma Town. "The difficult questions seem to be connected together," I said, "Only by finding this painting can the illusion be broken." β
The crowd nodded.
"As for the person with a heart," Hu Xiaoer blinked, "Some of the paintings of Master Ma were lost three years ago, look at what happened in Sunset Town three years ago." β
I recalled what I heard in the restaurant, "It was Fengyue Lou who came here three years ago, you meanβ" I exclaimed.
Hu Xiaoer's eyes were full of approval, "Heroine, your exquisite heart has the strongest illusion in Fengyue Tower, maybe that's the reason." β
The tenth aunt asked: "You say, do they know about these things?"
"The so-called authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. Hua Daxia: They came here a year ago, and they may have fallen into illusion and don't know it. "But I always feel that they know." It is precisely because he knows that he has concealed it, otherwise he would not have hid in Fengyue Tower so coincidentally. β
Everyone seems to have described the truth in a word, but I still can't get it down with a heart. Three years ago, Fengyue Lou came here, and Sunset Town became Luoma Town, and its owner was the extremely powerful Red Mei Niang in the mouth of the drinker. We haven't met yet. I think of the real Fengyue Pavilion in Jiangnan Suyang, the ruthless owner of the Su Pavilion. I listened to a lot of his stories last night, and I just thought he was a bad person.
So what kind of person is Hongmeiniang?
The scenery of the south of the Yangtze River painted on Ma Shiyou's picture scroll, Luoma Town is modeled after Su Yangfang, so why is it a wind and rain building, not a Fengyue Pavilion?
Is the difference between one word intentional or unintentional?
Fengyue Building, Fengyue Building, Fengyue Building, although these three words do not appear on the rivers and lakes, I always feel that I have seen it somewhere. It seems to be in the book of words given to me by Meng Yunsheng......
As we were thinking, our group also talked about walking forward, the sky in the east was bright, and the town seemed to be filled with some white fog in the morning.
This time I was here, and I didn't feel beautiful, and I panicked for no reason, and I wanted to find the painting as soon as possible and break the illusion.
